Confirmation Letter Concerning Early Repayment of a Market Rate

an explanation of the following information from Mizuho Bank, Ltd. hereafter, ¡§Bank¡ ̈) regarding the terms

market interest rate and financial rider) „Y _____________ on November 15, 2016 (date received), and hereby confirm that
I fully understand them. also confirm that I have received a copy of the original Confirmation Letter Concerning Early Repayment
of a Market Rate Variable Loan. View on penalty for early repayment (1) When a variable rate loan at market rates is repaid early,
on a date other than the interest rate reset date, the bank loses the interest that would have been paid up to the rate reset
date, and is faced with the need to reinvest the funds from repayment in another third party in the interbank market until the
reset date. When the interest rate on reinvestment on the date of early repayment is less than the applicable interest rate under
the agreement, this causes the bank to incur a loss. (2) Consequently, prior approval of the bank shall be required for early
repayment of a loan by a customer on a date other than the reset date for unavoidable reasons on the part of the customer, and
the customer shall pay a penalty in the amount of the lost interest represented by the difference between the amount of interest
the bank would have received up to the next reset date and the amount of interest the bank will receive from reinvesting the repaid
funds at the new rate or would receive if it reinvested the funds at the new rate. (3) Because commitments on the interbank market
are generally entered into two business days before the date of financing (investment), a loss may occur even when the early repayment
date falls on the rate reset date in instances where the request is not received at least two business days prior to the early
repayment date. (4) Moreover, the bank will have the customer pay the penalty calculated based on the view described above even
when the customer forfeits under an acceleration clause pursuant to the rules on banking transaction agreements. The ¡§early
repayment date¡ ̈ shall be read as the ¡§acceleration date¡ ̈ or ¡§date invoiced by the
bank¡ ̈ in such instances. (5) After the customer has applied for a loan, the loan interest rate has been determined
through discussion between the customer and the bank, and the bank approves it, a penalty may be incurred even in instances where
the customer withdraws the loan application before it is implemented. Notes: *1 The level of the interest rate on reinvestment
cannot be specifically stated at present because is set according to actual market conditions at the time of early repayment.
*2 ¡§Set according to actual market conditions¡ ̈ refers to the rate on the side offering the funds on the
short-term yen call market. Penalty calculation method (1) The method for calculating the penalty is as follows: Repayment amt.
x (Applicable interest rate ¡V Reinvestment rate) x (Next rate reset date ¡V Early repayment date) ¡Ò
No. of days in year = Penalty Notes: *3 When the reinvestment interest is greater than or equal to the applicable interest rate,
there will be no penalty. *4 The next rate reset date - Early repayment date is calculated by including the date of one but not
the other. *5 When the next rate reset date falls on the loan maturity date, the next rate reset date shall be read as the loan
maturity date. [Loan transaction seal] STAAR Japan, Inc.

     

     

    

 

*6 When the loan application is withdrawn, the period on which the
penalty is calculated will from the scheduled date of implementation to the next rate reset date. (2) An example calculation based
on the calculation method above is shown below: • Repayment amt.: ¥30,000,000 • Applicable interest rate: 3.000%
• Reinvestment rate: 1.000% • Next rate reset date: Sep. 30 • Early repayment date: Jul. 10 • No. of days
in the year: 365 ¥30,000,000 x (3.000% - 1.000%) x (Sep. 30 – Jul. 10) ÷ 365 = ¥134,794 *7 Generally speaking,
the lower the reinvestment rate is on the early repayment date, the the penalty. *8 This example calculation only represents one
example and is not based on the actual transaction terms with the customer. [For bank use only] Branch No. Transaction Code Settlement

LEASE AGREEMENT

 

This Lease Agreement,
dated May 30, 2006, by and between FARNAM STREET FINANCIAL, INC. (the "Lessor") with an office located at 240 Pondview
Plaza, 5850 Opus Parkway, Minnetonka, MN 55343 and STAAR SURGICAL COMPANY (the "Lessee") with an office located at 1911
Walker Avenue, Monrovia, CA 91016.

 

Lessor hereby leases or
grants to the Lessee the right to use and Lessee hereby rents and accepts the right to use the equipment listed by serial number
and related services, and software and related services on the Lease Schedule(s) attached hereto or incorporated herein by reference
from time to time (collectively, the equipment, software and services are the "Equipment"), subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, as supplemented with respect to each item of Equipment by the terms and conditions set forth in the appropriate
Lease Schedule. The term "Lease Agreement" shall include this Lease Agreement and the various Lease Schedule(s) identifying
each item of Equipment or the appropriate Lease Schedule(s) identifying one or more particular items of Equipment.

 

1.       TERM: This Lease Agreement is
effective from the date it is executed by both parties. The term of this Lease Agreement, as to all Equipment designated on any
particular Lease Schedule, shall commence on the Installation Date for all Equipment on such Lease Schedule and shall continue
for an initial period ending that number of months from the Commencement Date as set forth in such Lease Schedule (the “Initial
Term”) and shall continue from year to year thereafter until terminated. The term of this Lease Agreement as to all Equipment
designated on any particular Lease Schedule may be terminated without cause at the end of the Initial Term or any year thereafter
by either party mailing written notice of its termination to the other party not less than one-hundred twenty (120) days prior
to such termination date.

 

2.       COMMENCEMENT
DATE: The Installation Date for each item of Equipment shall be the day said item of Equipment is installed at the Location
of Installation, ready for use, and accepted in writing by the Lessee. The Commencement Date for any Lease Schedule is the first
of the month following installation of all the Equipment on the Lease Schedule, unless the latest Installation Date for any Equipment
on the Lease Schedule falls on the first day of the month, in which case that is the Commencement Date. The Lessee agrees to complete,
execute and deliver a Certificate(s) of Acceptance to Lessor upon installation of the Equipment.

 

3.       LEASE
CHARGE: The lease charges for the Equipment leased pursuant to this Lease Agreement shall be the aggregate “Monthly Lease
Charge(s)” as set forth on each and every Lease Schedule executed pursuant hereto (the aggregate “Monthly Lease Charge(s)”
are the “Lease Charges”). Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor the Lease Charges in accordance with the Lease Schedule(s),
and the payments shall be made at Lessor's address indicated thereon. The Lease Charges shall be paid by Lessee monthly in advance
with the first full month's payment due on the Commencement Date. If the Installation Date does not fall on the first day of a
month, the Lease Charge for the period from the Installation Date to the Commencement Date shall be an amount equal to the “Monthly
Lease Charge” divided by thirty (30) and multiplied by the number of days from and including the Installation Date to the
Commencement Date and such amount shall be due and payable upon receipt of an invoice from Lessor. Charges for taxes made in accordance
with Section 4 and charges made under any other provision of this Lease Agreement and payable by Lessee shall be paid to Lessor
at Lessor's address specified on the Lease Schedule(s) on the date specified in invoices delivered to Lessee. If payment, as specified
above, is not received by Lessor on the due date, Lessee agrees to and shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay on demand, as
a late charge, an amount equal to one and one-half percent (11⁄2%), or the maximum percentage allowed by law if less, of the
amount past due (“Late Charges”). Late Charges shall be charged and added to any past due amount on the date such payment
is due and every thirty (30) days thereafter until all past due amounts are paid in full to Lessor.

 

4.       TAXES:
In addition to the Lease Charges set forth in Section 3, the Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for all license or registration
fees, assessments, sales and use taxes, rental taxes, gross receipts taxes, personal property taxes and other taxes now or hereafter
imposed by any government, agency, province or otherwise upon the Equipment, the Lease Charges or upon the ownership, leasing,
renting, purchase, possession or use of the Equipment, whether the same be assessed to Lessor or Lessee (the “Taxes”).
Lessor shall file all property tax returns and pay all Taxes when due. Lessee, upon notice to Lessor, may, in Lessee's own name,
contest or protest any Taxes, and Lessor shall honor any such notice except when in Lessor's sole opinion such contest is futile
or will cause a levy or lien to arise on the Equipment or cloud Lessor's title thereto. Lessee shall, in addition, be responsible
to Lessor for the payment and discharge of any penalties or interest as a result of Lessee’s actions or inactions. Nothing
herein shall be construed to require Lessee to be responsible for any federal or state taxes or payments in lieu thereof, imposed
upon or measured by the net income of Lessor, or state franchise taxes of Lessor, or except as provided hereinabove, any penalties
or interest resulting from Lessor's failure to timely remit such tax payments.

 

5.       DELIVERY
AND FREIGHT COSTS: Lessee shall accept delivery of the Equipment and allow the Equipment to be installed within seven (7) days
after delivery.

All transportation
charges upon the Equipment for delivery to Lessee's designated Location of Installation are to be paid by Lessee. All rigging,
drayage charges, structural alterations, rental of heavy equipment and/or other expense necessary to place the Equipment at the
Location of Installation are to be promptly paid by Lessee.

 

6.       INSTALLATION:
Lessee agrees to pay for the actual installation of the Equipment at Lessee's site. Lessee shall make available and agrees
to pay for all costs associated with providing a suitable place of installation and necessary electrical power, outlets and air
conditioning required for operating the Equipment as defined in the Equipment manufacturer's installation manual or instructions.
All supplies consumed or required by the Equipment shall be furnished and paid for by Lessee.

 

     

     

    

 

7.       RETURN
TO LESSOR: On the day following the last day of the lease term associated with a Lease Schedule (the “Return Date”),
Lessee shall cause and pay for all the Equipment (by serial number where serialized) on that Lease Schedule to be deinstalled,
packed using the manufacturer’s original packing materials and shipped to a location designated in writing by Lessor (the
“Return Location”). If all the Equipment on the applicable Lease Schedule is not at the Return Location within ten
(10) days of the Return Date, or Lessee fails to deinstall and ship all the Equipment on the Return Date, then any written notice
of termination delivered by Lessee shall become void, and the Lease Schedule shall continue in accordance with this Lease Agreement.
Irrespective of any other provision hereof, Lessee will bear the risk of damage from fire, the elements or otherwise until delivery
of the Equipment to the Return Location. At such time as the Equipment is delivered to the Lessor at the Return Location, the Equipment
will be at the risk of Lessor.

 

8.       MAINTENANCE:
Lessee, at its sole expense, shall maintain the Equipment in good working order and condition. Lessee shall enter into, pay
for and maintain in force during the entire term of any Lease Schedule, a maintenance agreement, if reasonably available, with
the original manufacturer of the Equipment, or an equivalent supplier of maintenance services, providing for continuous uninterrupted
maintenance of the Equipment (the “Maintenance Agreement”). Lessee will cause the manufacturer or equivalent supplier
to keep the Equipment in good working order in accordance with the provisions of the Maintenance Agreement and make all necessary
adjustments and repairs to the Equipment. The manufacturer or equivalent supplier is hereby authorized to accept the directions
of Lessee with respect thereto. Lessee agrees to allow the manufacturer or equivalent supplier full and free access to the Equipment.
All maintenance and service charges, whether under the Maintenance Agreement or otherwise, and all expenses, if any, of the manufacturer's
or equivalent supplier’s customer engineers incurred in connection with maintenance and repair services, shall be promptly
paid by Lessee. Lessee warrants that all of the Equipment shall be in good working order operating according to manufacturer’s
specification and eligible for the manufacturer's standard maintenance agreement, if reasonably available, upon delivery to and
inspection and testing by the Lessor. If the Equipment is not operating according to manufacturer’s specification, in good
working order and/or certified by the manufacturer as eligible for the manufacturer's standard maintenance agreement, Lessee agrees
to reimburse Lessor for all costs, losses, expenses and fees associated with such equipment and the repair or replacement thereof.

 

9.       LOCATION,
OWNERSHIP AND USE: The Equipment shall, at all times, be the sole and exclusive property of Lessor. Lessee shall have no right
or property interest therein, except for the right to use the Equipment in the normal operation of its business at the Location
of Installation, or as otherwise provided herein. The Equipment is and shall remain personal property even if installed in or attached
to real property. Lessor shall be permitted to display notice of its ownership on the Equipment by means of a suitable stencil,
label or plaque affixed thereto.

 

Lessee shall keep
the Equipment at all times free and clear from all claims, levies, encumbrances and process. Lessee shall give Lessor immediate
notice of any such attachment or other judicial process affecting any of the Equipment. Without Lessor’s written permission,
Lessee shall not attempt to or actually: (i) pledge, lend, create a security interest in, sublet, exchange, trade, assign, swap,
use for an allowance or credit or otherwise; (ii) allow another to use; (iii) part with possession; (iv) dispose of; or (v) remove
from the Location of Installation, any item of Equipment. If any item of Equipment is exchanged, assigned, traded, swapped, used
for an allowance or credit or otherwise to acquire new or different equipment (the “New Equipment”) without Lessor’s
prior written consent, then all of the New Equipment shall become Equipment owned by Lessor subject to this Lease Agreement and
the applicable Lease Schedule.

 

Any feature(s) installed
on the Equipment at the time of delivery that are not specified on the Lease Schedule(s) are and shall remain the sole property
of the Lessor.

 

Lessee shall cause
the Equipment to be operated in accordance with the applicable vendor's or manufacturer's manual of instructions by competent and
qualified personnel.

 

10.       FINANCING
STATEMENT: Lessor is hereby authorized by Lessee to cause this Lease Agreement or other instruments, including Uniform Commercial
Code Financing Statements, to be filed or recorded for the purposes of showing Lessor's interest in the Equipment. Lessee agrees
to execute any such instruments as Lessor may request from time to time.

 

11.       ALTERATIONS
AND ATTACHMENTS: Upon prior written notice to Lessor, Lessee may, at its own expense, make minor alterations in or add attachments
to the Equipment, provided such alterations and attachments shall not interfere with the normal operation of the Equipment and
do not otherwise involve the pledge, assignment, exchange, trade or substitution of the Equipment or any component or part thereof.
All such alterations and attachments to the Equipment shall become part of the Equipment leased to Lessee and owned by Lessor.
If, in Lessor’s sole determination, the alteration or attachment reduces the value of the Equipment or interferes with the
normal and satisfactory operation or maintenance of any of the Equipment, or creates a safety hazard, Lessee shall, upon notice
from Lessor to that effect, promptly remove the alteration or attachment at Lessee's expense and restore the Equipment to the condition
the Equipment was in just prior to the alteration or attachment.

 

12.       LOSS
AND DAMAGE: Lessee shall assume and bear the risk of loss, theft and damage (including any governmental requisition, condemnation
or confiscation) to the Equipment and all component parts thereof from any and every cause whatsoever, whether or not covered by
insurance. No loss or damage to the Equipment or any component part thereof shall impair any obligation of Lessee under this Lease
Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect except as hereinafter expressly provided. Lessee shall repair or cause
to be repaired all damage to the Equipment. In the event that all or part of the Equipment shall, as a result of any cause whatsoever,
become lost, stolen, destroyed or otherwise rendered irreparably unusable or damaged (collectively, the “Loss”) then
Lessee shall, within ten (10) days after the Loss, fully inform Lessor in writing of such a Loss and shall pay to Lessor the following
amounts: (i) the Monthly Lease Charges (and other amounts) due and owing under this Lease Agreement, plus (ii) one-hundred (100%)
percent of the original cost of the Equipment subject to the Loss if the loss occurs in the first nine months of the Initial Term,
and, thereafter, the original cost of the Equipment amortized by the subsequent Monthly Lease Charges received by Lessor during
the Initial Term using an amortization rate of eight hundred and ninety (890) basis points over the interest rate of the three
(3) year United States Treasury Note as reported by the Federal Reserve on the Commencement Date (collectively, the sum of (i)
plus (ii) shall be the “Casualty Loss Value”). Notwithstanding the proceeding, if Lessee has provided notice to terminate
the applicable Lease Schedule prior to informing Lessor in writing of a Loss and such Loss is not covered by insurance proceeds
pursuant to Section 13 hereof, then Lessee shall pay two (2) times the Casualty Loss Value on the Equipment subject to such Loss.
Upon receipt by Lessor of the Casualty Loss Value: (i) the applicable Equipment shall be removed from the Lease Schedule; and (ii)
Lessee’s obligation to pay Lease Charges associated with the applicable Equipment shall cease. Lessor may request, and Lessee
shall complete, an affidavit(s) that swears out the facts supporting the Loss of any item of Equipment.

13.       INSURANCE:
Until the Equipment is returned to Lessor or as otherwise herein provided, whether or not this Lease Agreement has terminated
as to the Equipment, Lessee, at its expense, shall maintain: (i) property and casualty insurance insuring the Equipment for its
Casualty Loss Value naming Lessor or its assigns as sole loss payee; and (ii) comprehensive public liability and third-party property
insurance naming Lessor and its assigns as additional loss payees. The insurance shall cover the interest of both the Lessor and
Lessee in the Equipment, or as the case may be, shall protect both the Lessor and Lessee in respect to all risks arising out of
the condition, delivery, installation, maintenance, use or operation of the Equipment. All such insurance shall provide for thirty
(30) days prior written notice to Lessor of cancellation, restriction, or reduction of coverage. Lessee hereby irrevocably appoints
Lessor as Lessee's attorney-in-fact to make claim for, receive payment of and execute and endorse all documents, checks or drafts
for loss or damage or return premium under any insurance policy issued on the Equipment. Prior to installation of the Equipment,
all policies or certificates of insurance shall be delivered to Lessor by Lessee. Lessee agrees to keep the Equipment insured with
an insurance company which is at least “A” rated by A.M. Best. The proceeds of any loss or damage insurance shall be
payable to Lessor, but Lessor shall remit all such insurance proceeds to Lessee at such time as Lessee either (i) provides Lessor
satisfactory proof that the damage has been repaired and the Equipment has been restored to good working order and condition or
(ii) pays to Lessor the Casualty Loss Value. It is understood and agreed that any payments made by Lessee or its insurance carrier
for loss or damage of any kind whatsoever to the Equipment are not made as accelerated rental payments or adjustments of rental,
but are made solely as indemnity to Lessor for loss or damage of its Equipment.

 

14.       ENFORCEMENT
OF WARRANTIES: Upon receipt of a written request from Lessee, Lessor shall, so long as this Lease Agreement is in force, take
all reasonable action requested by Lessee to enforce the Equipment manufacturer's warranties, expressed or implied, issued on or
applicable to the Equipment, which are enforceable by Lessor in its own name. Lessor shall obtain for Lessee all service furnished
by manufacturer in connection therewith; provided, however, that Lessor shall not be required to commence any suit or action or
resort to litigation to enforce any such warranty unless Lessee shall first pay to Lessor in advance all expenses in connection
therewith, including attorney's’ fees.

 

If any such warranty
shall be enforceable by Lessee in its own name, Lessee shall, upon receipt of written request from Lessor, so long as this Lease
Agreement is in force, take all reasonable action requested by Lessor to enforce any such warranty, which is enforceable by Lessee
in its own name; provided, however, that Lessee shall not be obligated to commence any suit or action or resort to litigation to
enforce any such warranty unless Lessor shall pay all expenses in connection therewith.

 

15.WARRANTIES,
DISCLAIMERS AND INDEMNITY: THE LESSOR DOES NOT MAKE ANY
WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT IS NOT RELYING ON LESSOR'S SKILL OR JUDGEMENT TO SELECT OR FURNISH GOODS SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND THAT THERE
ARE NO WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE AGREEMENT. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT LESSOR HAS NOT MADE ANY STATEMENT, REPRESENTATION
OR WARRANTY RELATIVE TO THE ACCOUNTING OR TAX ENTRIES, TREATMENT, BENEFIT, USE OR CLASSIFICATION OF THE LEASE AGREEMENT OR ASSOCIATED
LEASE SCHEDULES.  LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND/OR ITS INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR (i) ANY AND ALL
OF LESSEE'S ACCOUNTING AND TAX ENTRIES ASSOCIATED WITH THE LEASE AGREEMENT AND/OR THE LEASE SCHEDULES AND (ii) THE ACCOUNTING AND
TAX TREATMENT, BENEFITS, USES AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE LEASE AGREEMENT OR ANY LEASE SCHEDULE. LESSOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF THE
EQUIPMENT OR ITS USE BY LESSEE, AND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR
IN CONNECTION WITH LESSOR'S FAILURE TO PERFORM ITS OBLIGATION HEREUNDER. THIS LEASE AGREEMENT IS A “FINANCE LEASE”
AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED AND USED IN ARTICLE 2A OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE. NO RIGHTS OR REMEDIES REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 2A
OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE WILL BE CONFERRED ON LESSEE. 

 

Lessee agrees that
Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for, and Lessee shall indemnify, defend and hold Lessor harmless with respect to, any claim
from a third party for any liability, claim, loss, damage or expense of any kind or nature, whether based upon a theory of strict
liability or otherwise, caused, directly or indirectly, by: (i) the inadequacy of any item of Equipment, including software, for
any purpose; (ii) any deficiency or any latent or other defects in any Equipment, including software, whether or not detectable
by Lessee; (iii) the selection, manufacture, rejection, ownership, lease, possession, maintenance, operation, use or performance
of any item of Equipment, including software; (iv) any interruption or loss of service, use or performance of any item of Equipment,
including software; (v) patent, trademark or copyright infringement; or (vi) any loss of business or other special, incidental
or consequential damages whether or not resulting from any of the foregoing. Lessee’s duty to defend and indemnify Lessor
shall survive the expiration, termination, cancellation or assignment of this Lease Agreement or a Lease Schedule and shall be
binding upon Lessee’s successors and permitted assigns.

any Lease Schedule:

		(1)	recover from Lessee all accrued and unpaid Lease Charges and other amounts due and owing on the
date of the default;

		(2)	recover from Lessee from time to time all Lease Charges and other amounts as and when becoming
due hereunder;

		(3)	accelerate, cause to become immediately due and recover the present value of all Lease Charges
and other amounts due and/or likely to become due hereunder from the date of the default to the end of the lease term using a discount
rate of six (6%) percent;

		(4)	cause to become immediately due and payable and recover from Lessee the Casualty Loss Value of

		(5)	terminate any or all of the Lessee’s rights, but not its obligations, associated with the
lease of Equipment under this Lease Agreement;

		(6)	retake (by Lessor, independent contractor, or by requiring Lessee to assemble and surrender the
Equipment in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 hereinabove) possession of the Equipment without terminating the Lease
Schedule or the Lease Agreement free from claims by Lessee which claims are hereby expressly waived by Lessee;

		(7)	require Lessee to deliver the Equipment to a location designated by Lessor;

		(8)	proceed by court action to enforce performance by Lessee of its obligations associated with any

Upon repossession
of the Equipment, Lessor shall have the right to lease, sell or otherwise dispose of such Equipment in a commercially reasonable
manner, with or without notice, at a public or private sale. Lessor's pursuit and enforcement of any one or more remedies shall
not be deemed an election or waiver by Lessor of any other remedy. Lessor shall not be obligated to sell or re-lease the Equipment.
Any sale or re-lease may be held at such place or places as are selected by Lessor, with or without having the Equipment present.
Any such sale or re-lease, may be at wholesale or retail, in bulk or in parcels. Time and exactitude of each of the terms and conditions
of this Lease Agreement are hereby declared to be of the essence. Lessor may accept past due payments in any amount without modifying
the terms of this Lease Agreement and without waiving any rights of Lessor hereunder.

 

18.       COSTS
AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES: In the event of any default, claim, proceeding, including a bankruptcy proceeding, arbitration,
mediation, counter-claim, action (whether legal or equitable), appeal or otherwise, whether initiated by Lessor or Lessee (or a
debtor-in-possession or bankruptcy trustee), which arises out of, under, or is related in any way to this Lease Agreement, any
Lease Schedule, or any other document, agreement or instrument executed pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, or any governmental
examination or investigation of Lessee, which requires Lessor's participation (individually and collectively, the “Claim”),
Lessee, in addition to all other sums which Lessee may be called upon to pay under the provisions of this Lease Agreement, shall
pay to Lessor, on demand, all costs, expenses and fees paid or payable in connection with the Claim, including, but not limited
to, attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket costs, including travel and related expenses incurred by Lessor or its attorneys.

 

19.       LESSOR'S
PERFORMANCE OPTION: Should Lessee fail to make any payment or to do any act as provided by this Lease Agreement, then Lessor
shall have the right (but not the obligation), without notice to Lessee of its intention to do so and without releasing Lessee
from any obligation hereunder to make or to do the same, to make advances to preserve the Equipment or Lessor's title thereto,
and to pay, purchase, contest or compromise any insurance premium, encumbrance, charge, tax, lien or other sum which in the judgment
of Lessor appears to affect the Equipment, and in exercising any such rights, Lessor may incur any liability and expend whatever
amounts in its absolute discretion it may deem necessary therefor. All sums so incurred or expended by Lessor shall be due and
payable by Lessee within ten (10) days of notice thereof.

 

20.       QUIET
POSSESSION AND INSPECTION: Lessor hereby covenants with Lessee that Lessee shall quietly possess the Equipment subject to and
in accordance with the provisions hereof so long as Lessee is not in default hereunder; provided, however, that Lessor or its designated
agent may, at any and all reasonable times during business hours, enter Lessee's premises for the purposes of inspecting the Equipment
and the manner in which it is being used.

 

21.       ASSIGNMENTS:
This Lease Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns. Lessee, however, shall not assign this Lease Agreement or sublet any of the Equipment without first obtaining the prior
written consent of Lessor and its assigns, if any. Lessee acknowledges that the terms and conditions of this Lease Agreement have
been fixed in anticipation of the possible assignment of Lessor's rights under this Lease Agreement and in and to the Equipment
as collateral security to a third party ("Assignee" herein) which will rely upon and be entitled to the benefit of the
provisions of this Lease Agreement. Lessee agrees to provide Lessor or its potential assigns with Lessee's most recent audited
and its most current financial statements. Lessee agrees with Lessor and such Assignee to recognize in writing any such assignment
within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice thereof and to pay thereafter all sums due to Lessor hereunder directly
to such Assignee if directed by Lessor, notwithstanding any defense, set-off or counterclaim whatsoever (whether arising from a
breach of this Lease Agreement or not) that Lessee may from time to time have against Lessor. Upon such assignment, the Lessor
shall remain obligated to perform any obligations it may have under this Lease Agreement and the Assignee shall (unless otherwise
expressly agreed to in writing by the Assignee) have no obligation to perform such obligations. Any such assignment shall be subject
to Lessee's rights to use and possess the Equipment so long as Lessee is not in default hereunder.

or in any document attached thereto, shall be for the benefit of Lessor and Lessee and their successors, any assignee or secured
party. Further, all covenants, agreements, representations, and warranties contained in this Lease Agreement, any Lease Schedule,
or in any document attached thereto, shall survive the execution and delivery of this Lease Agreement and the expiration or other

the officers of the Lessee who have the authority to execute this Lease Agreement and any Lease Schedules attached thereto.

 

24.       LANDLORDS’
AND MORTGAGEES’ WAIVER: If requested, Lessee shall furnish waivers, in form and substance satisfactory to Lessor, from
all landlords and mortgagees of any premises upon which any Equipment is located.

 

25.       MISCELLANEOUS:
This Lease Agreement, the Lease Schedule(s), attached riders and any documents or instruments issued or executed pursuant hereto
will have been made, executed and delivered in, and shall be governed by the internal laws (as opposed to conflicts of law provisions)
and decisions of, the State of Minnesota. Lessee and Lessor consent to jurisdiction of any local, state or federal court located
within Minnesota. Venue shall be in Minnesota and Lessee hereby waives local venue and any objection relating to Minnesota being
an improper venue to conduct any proceeding relating to this Lease Agreement. At Lessor’s sole election and determination,
Lessor may select an alternative forum, including arbitration or mediation, to adjudicate any dispute arising out of this Lease
Agreement. THE PARTIES HERETO, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY
AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS LEASE, INCLUDING ANY LITIGATION REGARDING
THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS LEASE OR ANY RELATED AGREEMENT.

 

This Lease Agreement
was jointly drafted by the parties, and the parties hereby agree that neither should be favored in the construction, interpretation
or application of any provision or any ambiguity. There are no unwritten or oral agreements between the parties. This Lease Agreement
and associated Lease Schedule(s) constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Lessor and Lessee with respect to the
lease of the Equipment superseding all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, discussions, proposals, representations,
promises, commitments and offers between the parties, whether oral or written. No provision of this Lease Agreement or any Lease
Schedule shall be deemed waived, amended, discharged or modified orally or by custom, usage or course of conduct unless such waiver,
amendment or modification is in writing and signed by an officer of each of the parties hereto. If any one or more of the provisions
of this Lease Agreement or any Lease Schedule is for any reason held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions
of this Lease Agreement and any such Lease Schedule will be unimpaired, and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions shall
be replaced by a mutually acceptable valid, legal and enforceable provision that is closest to the original intention of the parties.
Lessee agrees that neither the manufacturer, nor the supplier, nor any of their salespersons, employees or agents are agents of
Lessor.

 

Any notice
provided for herein shall be in writing and sent by certified or registered mail to the parties at the addresses stated on
page1 of this Lease Agreement. This Lease Agreement shall not become effective until delivered to Lessor at its offices at
Minnetonka, Minnesota and executed by Lessor. If this Lease Agreement shall be executed by Lessor prior to being executed by
Lessee, it shall become void at Lessor's option five (5) days after the date of Lessor's execution hereof, unless Lessor
shall have received by such date a copy hereof executed by a duly authorized representative of Lessee.

 

This Lease Agreement
is made subject to the terms and conditions included herein and Lessee's acceptance is effective only to the extent that such terms
and conditions are consistent with the terms and conditions herein. Any acceptance which contains terms and conditions which are
in addition to or inconsistent with the terms and conditions herein will be a counter-offer and will not be binding unless agreed
to in writing by Lessor.

 

The terms used in
this Lease Agreement, unless otherwise defined, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Lease Schedule(s).

 

26.       REPOSSESSION:
LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, PURSUANT TO SECTION 17 HEREOF, LESSOR HAS BEEN GIVEN THE RIGHT TO REPOSSESS THE EQUIPMENT SHOULD
LESSEE BECOME IN DEFAULT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER. LESSEE HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT, IF ANY, TO REQUIRE LESSOR TO GIVE LESSEE
NOTICE AND A JUDICIAL HEARING PRIOR TO EXERCISING SUCH RIGHT OF REPOSSESSION.

 

27.       NET
LEASE: This Lease Agreement is a net lease and Lessee's obligations to pay all Lease Charges and other amounts payable hereunder
shall be absolute and unconditional and, except as expressly provided herein, shall not be subject to any: (i) delay, abatement,
reduction, defense, counterclaim, set-off, or recoupment; (ii) discontinuance or termination of any license; (iii) Equipment failure,
defect or deficiency; (iv) damage to or destruction of the Equipment; or (v) dissatisfaction with the Equipment or otherwise, including
any present or future claim against Lessor or the manufacturer, supplier, reseller or vendor of the Equipment. To the extent that
the Equipment includes intangible (or intellectual) property, Lessee understands and agrees that: (i) Lessor is not a party to
and does not have any responsibility under any software license and/or other agreement with respect to any software; and (ii) Lessee
will be responsible to pay all of the Lease Charges and perform all its other obligations under this Lease Agreement despite any
defect, deficiency, failure, termination, dissatisfaction, damage or destruction of any software or software license. Except as
expressly provided herein, this Lease Agreement shall not terminate for any reason, including any defect in the Equipment or Lessor's
title thereto or any destruction or loss of use of any item of Equipment.
