occupation thereof, or with respect to any interest of Landlord therein, it being the intention of
the parties that, by the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall, during the term of this Lease,
assume with respect to the Premises every obligation relating thereto which the ownership thereof
would entail and which, but for this Lease, would be borne by Landlord. This Lease is a net lease
and, notwithstanding any law, all rent and other amounts payable under this Lease by Tenant shall
be paid without offset, counterclaim, abatement or defense, except as specifically provided herein.

6. UTILITIES SERVICE Tenant shall be solely responsible and shall pay separately,
directly to the provider thereof, for all charges for fuel, heat, water, sewer service, refuse
collection, gas, electricity, telephone and for all other utilities used or consumed in the
Premises (“Utilities”). It is understood that Landlord shall not be required to provide any
services or utilities to Tenant and shall not be responsible for any failure or interruption
thereof caused outside of Landlord’s reasonable control, and Tenant shall make any necessary
arrangements to have all of such services or utilities billed directly to and paid directly by
Tenant. Tenant shall pay Tenant’s pro rata share of all Utilities upon receipt from Landlord of a
copy of the utility bills, which in the case of Building B is 58.0%, and Tenant shall pay the costs
of Utilities for Building A directly to the utility provider.

7. LANDLORD’S COVENANTS

7.1  Repairs by Landlord. Landlord, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, shall make
necessary repairs to the exterior foundations and structural members of the roof of the Building
and shall make necessary structural repairs to the exterior walls of the Building, provided that

caused by any act, omission or negligence of Tenant and its visitors, agents, and employees.
Routine repairs and maintenance of that portion of the roof of Building A used as a “roof deck” by

7.2  Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants that Tenant, on paying the Rent and
performing Tenant’s obligations in this Lease, shall peacefully and quietly have, hold and enjoy
the Premises throughout the Term without hindrance, ejection or molestation by any person lawfully
claiming under Landlord, subject to the other terms and provisions of this Lease and to all
mortgages and underlying leases of record to which this Lease is or may become subject and
subordinate.

covenants, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of Landlord are made and intended
for the purpose of binding only the Landlord’s interest in the Building and Building Parcel, as the
same may from time to time be encumbered, and are not intended to bind personally or the assets of
Landlord (other than Landlord’s interest in the Building and Building Parcel). Except to the
extent of Landlord’s interest in the Building and the Building Parcel, no personal liability or
personal responsibility is assumed by, nor shall at any time be asserted or enforceable against

successors, and assigns on account of the Lease or on account of any covenant, undertaking or
agreement of Landlord in or relating to this Lease.

Parcel, or for any unlawful, or noxious or offensive purpose or in such a manner as to constitute a
nuisance.

8.1.2 Except for repairs required to be made by Landlord, to take good care of the Premises
and, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to make all improvements, repairs (including without
limitation all routine repairs and maintenance of the roof of the Building) and replacements,

8.1.4 Except to the extent caused by Landlord’s negligence or willful misconduct, to indemnify
and save Landlord harmless of and from all loss, cost liability, damage and expense, including, but

manner of use or occupancy of the Premises, the Building, or the Building Parcel by Tenant or any
Person claiming through or under Tenant, (iii) acts, omissions or negligence of Tenant or any such

damage to property occasioned by any use, occupancy, act, omission or negligence referred to

than $1,000,000 which insurance shall name Landlord and its agents as an additional insured;
(ii) fire insurance, with extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief and sprinkler leakage
endorsements covering all fixtures and equipment, stock in trade, furniture, furnishings,

prior written notice to Landlord and, upon Landlord’s request, to any mortgagee of Landlord. In
addition, Tenant will procure and maintain, at Tenant’s expense, physical damage insurance covering
all real and personal property, located on or in, or constituting a part of, the Building in an
amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the replacement value of all such property. Such
insurance shall afford coverage for damages resulting from (i) perils covered by what is commonly
referred to as “broad from all perils coverage” (but excluding earthquake and flood), and (ii)
boilers and machinery coverage as appropriate for apparatus located in the Building. All policies
required pursuant to this paragraph or duly executed certificates for such policies shall be
deposited with Landlord not less than ten (10) days from the day Tenant is expected to take
occupancy and upon renewals of said policies not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the
expiration of the term of such coverage.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord and Tenant mutually agree that with
respect to any loss or damage to the real or personal property of either on the Building Parcel,
including the Building itself (whether caused by the negligence of Landlord or Tenant or any other
cause), which is covered by insurance then being carried by them respectively, or required to be
carried, or as to any coverage which Landlord agrees need not be carried, the party suffering a
loss releases the other of and from any and all claim with respect to such loss; and they further
mutually agree that their respective insurance companies shall have no right of subrogation against
the other on account thereof.

8.1.6 The Landlord and Landlord’s agents and employees shall not be liable for, and Tenant
waives all claims for, loss or damage to Tenant’s business or damage to person or property
sustained by Tenant resulting from any accident or occurrence (unless caused by or resulting from

against which the Tenant is insured or required to be insured) or in or upon the Premises or the
Building.

8.1.7 To permit Landlord and its agents to have access in and about the Premises including,
without limitation, the right to enter the Premises on twenty-four (24) hours’ prior notice (except

8.1.8 To pay on demand Landlord’s expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, at trial and
on appeal, incurred in successfully enforcing any obligation of the Tenant under this Lease or
incurred in any action or proceeding arising out of or pursuant to this Lease.

8.1.9 This Lease and all of Tenant’s rights hereunder are subject and subordinate to any
mortgages or deeds of trust that now exist or may hereafter be placed upon the Building, the
Building Parcel or any part thereof and to any and all advances to be made thereunder.

8.1.10 In addition to and not in limitation of Section 8.1.1, Tenant shall, at its expense,
comply with any existing or hereafter-enacted environmental cleanup responsibility laws affecting
Tenant’s operation at the Premises (“Cleanup Laws”). Tenant shall, at its expense, make all
submissions to, provide all information to, and comply with all requirements of the appropriate
governmental authority (the “Authority”) under the Cleanup Laws. Should the Authority determine
that a cleanup plan be prepared and that a cleanup be undertaken because of any spills or
discharges of hazardous substances or wastes at the Premises which occur during the Lease term,
Tenant shall at its expense prepare and submit the required plans and financial assurances and
carry out the approved plans. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 8.1.10 shall arise if there
is any closing, terminating or transferring of operations of an industrial establishment at the
Premises pursuant to the Cleanup Laws. At no expense to Landlord, Tenant shall promptly provide
all information requested by Landlord for preparation of affidavits required by Landlord to
determine the applicability of the Cleanup Laws to the Premises, and shall sign the affidavits
promptly when requested to do so by Landlord.

Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord from all fines, suits, procedures,
claims and actions of any kind arising out of or in any way connected with any spills or discharges
of hazardous substances or wastes (as described in any Cleanup Laws) at the Premises that occur
during the Lease term, including all fines, suits, procedures, claims and actions of any kind
arising out of Tenant’s failure to provide all information, make all submissions and take all steps
required by the Authority under the Cleanup Laws or any other environmental laws. Tenant’s
obligations and liabilities under this paragraph shall survive termination or sooner expiration of
this Lease. Tenant’s failure to abide by the terms of this Section shall be restrainable by
injunction.

8.1.11 Upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, to quit and surrender the
Premises to Landlord, broom clean, in the condition existing on the Commencement Date, ordinary
wear and tear and casualty not caused by Tenant excepted. To remove all property of Tenant and, at
Landlord’s option, to remove any alteration, addition and improvement made by Tenant and to repair
all damages to the Premises caused by such removal; provided that Landlord shall not require the
removal of any alterations or installations made by Tenant under the 2000 Lease (as defined in
Section 14) including without limitation any paint, wiring, or cabling performed by Tenant, and
provided further that Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any future alterations, additions,
or improvements performed by Tenant unless Landlord, at the time of giving its consent to such
alterations, additions, or improvements, conditions its consent thereto on Tenant’s removal of the
same upon expiration of the Term. Any improvements or installations which are required to be but
are not so removed shall be deemed to have been abandoned by Tenant and may be retained or disposed
of by Landlord, as Landlord shall desire, but Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of
restoration of the Premises and removal and disposal.

8.2 Negative Covenants. Tenant covenants at all times during the Term and such
further time as Tenant occupies the Premises or any part thereof:

8.2.1 Not to make or perform, or permit the making or performance of, any alterations,
subdivisions, installations, decorations, improvements, additions or other physical changes in or
about the Premises including those which are necessary to satisfy any applicable laws or
regulations (referred to collectively as “alterations”) without Landlord’s prior written consent.
Landlord agrees not to unreasonably withhold its consent to alterations requested by Tenant.

8.2.2 Not to assign, sell, mortgage, pledge, or in any manner, voluntarily or involuntarily,
transfer or permit the transfer of this Lease or any interest therein, or sublet the Premises or
parts thereof without Landlord’s prior written consent, which Landlord shall not unreasonably
withhold or delay. A transfer or change in the owners of Tenant’s stock or a change in the
composition of any noncorporate Tenant shall, unless such stock is publicly traded, be deemed an
assignment. Consent by Landlord to an assignment, subletting, concession or license shall not be
construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent of Landlord to any further
assignment or subletting, nor shall the collection of Rent by Landlord from any assignee, subtenant
or other occupant be deemed a waiver of this covenant or an acceptance of the assignee or subtenant
as Tenant or a release of Tenant from the covenants in this Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed.
Tenant and any assignee or subtenant shall be jointly and severally liable for the obligations of
this Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tenant may, without
Landlord’s consent, assign this Lease or sublease all or any portion of the Premises (“Permitted
Transfer”) to:  (a) a parent, subsidiary, affiliate, division or corporation controlling,
controlled by or under common control with Tenant; (b) a successor corporation related to Tenant by
merger, consolidation, non-bankruptcy reorganization or government action; or (c) a purchaser of
all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets in the State of Washington.  No such Permitted
Transfer shall relieve Tenant of any liability under the Lease.

9. DESTRUCTION: CONDEMNATION

9.1 Damage or Destruction.

9.1.1 In case of damage to the Premises or the Building by fire or other casualty, Tenant
shall give immediate notice to Landlord. If the Building is damaged by fire or any other cause to
such extent that the cost of restoration, as reasonably estimated by Landlord, will equal or exceed
30% of the replacement value of the Building (exclusive of foundations) just prior to the
occurrence of the damage, or if insurance proceeds sufficient for restoration are for any reason
unavailable, then Landlord may no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the
damage, give Tenant a notice of election to terminate this Lease. In the event of such an election
this Lease shall be deemed to terminate on the third day after the giving of said notice, Tenant
shall surrender possession of the Premises within a reasonable time thereafter, and the Rent and
Additional Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of said surrender and any Rent paid for any
period beyond said date shall be repaid to Tenant. If the cost of restoration as estimated by
Landlord shall amount to less than 30% of such replacement value of the Building and insurance
proceeds sufficient for restoration are available, or if despite the cost Landlord does not elect
to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall restore the Building and the Premises (to the extent of
improvements to the Premises originally provided by Landlord hereunder) with reasonable promptness,
subject to delays beyond Landlord’s control and delays in the making of insurance adjustments by
Landlord, and Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease except as herein provided. To the
extent that the Premises are rendered untenantable, the Rent shall proportionately abate, except in
the event such damage resulted from or was contributed to, directly, or indirectly, by the act,
fault or neglect of Tenant, Tenant’s contractors, agents, employees, invitees or licensees, in
which event Rent shall abate only to the extent Landlord receives proceeds from Landlord’s rental
income insurance policy to compensate Landlord for loss of rent.

9.1.2 No damages, compensations or claim shall be payable by Landlord for inconvenience, loss
of business or annoyance arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises or
of the Building. Landlord shall use its best efforts to effect such repairs promptly.

9.1.3 Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on any improvements paid for by Tenant or
on Tenant’s furniture or furnishings or on any fixtures, equipment, personal property, inventory,
improvements or appurtenances of Tenant under this Lease and Landlord shall not be obligated to
repair any damage thereto or replace the same.

9.2 Domain. If all of the Premises or such portions of the Building as may be
required for the reasonable use of the Premises, are taken by eminent domain, this Lease shall
automatically terminate as of the date title vests in the condemning authority and all Rents,
Additional Rents and other payments shall be paid to that date.

10. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

10.1 Default. Upon the occurrence, at any time prior to or during the Term, of any
one or more of the following events (referred to as “Events of Default”):

10.1.1 If Tenant shall default in the payment when due of any installment of Fixed Rent or in
the payment when due of any Additional Rent, and such default shall continue for a period of five
(5) days after written notice from Landlord that the same is past due; or

10.1.2 If Tenant shall default in the observance or performance of any term, covenant or
condition of this Lease on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed (other than covenants for the
payment of Fixed Rent and Additional Rent) and Tenant shall fail after written notice by Landlord
of such default to remedy such default within twenty (20) days or if said default is not capable of
being cured within said twenty (20) day period and Tenant shall not commence the cure within said
period or shall not thereafter diligently prosecute to completion all steps necessary to remedy
such default;

Then, after the occurrence of such Event of Default, Landlord at any time thereafter, at
Landlord’s option, may terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant but Tenant shall remain
liable for damages as provided herein, or Landlord may relet the Premises without terminating this
Lease, or Landlord may exercise any other right or remedy allowed by law or provided herein.

10.2 Remedies of Landlord.

10.2.1 If an Event of Default has occurred, then, in any of such events, Landlord may without
notice, institute summary proceedings, terminate all services, dispossess Tenant and the legal
representative of Tenant or other occupants of the Premises, and remove their effects and hold the
Premises as if this Lease had not been made, and Tenant shall remain liable for damages as provided
herein.

10.2.2 Upon an Event of Default, Landlord, in addition to any other rights or remedies it may
have, at its option, may enter the Premises or any part thereof, either with or without process of
law, and expel, remove or put out Tenant or any other persons who may be thereon, together with all
personal property found therein; and Landlord may terminate this Lease, or it may from time to
time, without terminating this Lease and as agent of Tenant, re-let the Premises or any part
thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term less than or extending beyond the term
hereof), and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its
sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to repair, renovate, remodel, redecorate, alter
and change the Premises, Tenant remaining liable for any deficiency computed as hereinafter set
forth. In the case of any default, re-entry and/or dispossession by summary proceedings or
otherwise, all Rent and Additional Rent shall become due thereupon and be paid up to the time of
such re-entry or dispossession, together with such expenses as Landlord may incur in connection
with such default for attorneys fees, advertising expenses, brokerage fees and/or putting the
Premises in good order or preparing the same for re-rental.

10.2.3 If an Event of Default has occurred, Landlord shall have the right to have a receiver
appointed to collect rent and conduct Tenant’s business. Neither the filing of a petition for
appointment of a receiver nor the appointment itself shall constitute an election by Landlord to
terminate this Lease.

10.2.4 Tenant, for itself, and on behalf of any and all persons claiming through or under it,
including creditors of all kinds, does hereby waive and surrender all right and privilege which
they or any of them might have under or by reason of any present or future law, to redeem the
Premises or to have a continuance of this Lease for the term hereof, as it may have been extended,
after having been dispossessed or ejected therefrom by process of law or under the terms of this
Lease or after the termination of this Lease as herein provided.

10.2.5 At the option of Landlord, rents received by the Landlord from such re-letting shall be
applied first to the payment of any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Rent and
Additional Rent due hereunder; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such re-letting
and including, but not limited to, attorneys fees, advertising fees and brokerage fees, and to the
payment of any alteration and changes in the Premises; third, to the payment of Rent and Additional
Rent due and to become due hereunder, and, if after so applying said rents there is any deficiency
in the Rent or Additional Rent to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, Tenant shall pay any
deficiency to Landlord monthly on the dates specified herein and any payment made or suits brought
to collect the amount of the deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the right of
Landlord to collect the deficiency for any subsequent month. The failure or refusal of Landlord to
re-let the Premises or any part or parts thereof shall not release or affect Tenant’s liability
hereunder, nor shall Landlord be liable for failure to re-let. No such re-entry or taking
possession, of the Premises shall be construed as an election on Landlord’s part to terminate this
Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant.

10.3 Landlord’s Right To Cure Defaults. Landlord may cure, after notice of default is
served, any default by Tenant under this Lease; and whenever Landlord so elects, all costs and
expenses incurred by Landlord in curing a default, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees, together with interest on the amount of costs and expenses so incurred at the rate
provided in Section 2.6 hereof, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on demand, and shall be
recoverable as Additional Rent.

10.4 Waiver of Default. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by Landlord or
Tenant to or of any breach of any covenant, condition or duty of the other shall be construed as a
consent or waiver to or of any other breach of the same or any other covenant, condition or duty of
Tenant or Landlord, unless in writing signed by the party against whom waiver is sought.

10.5   Holdover by Tenant. In the event Tenant remains in possession of any portion
of the Premises after the expiration of the Term as to such portion but with the written permission
of Landlord, Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying such portion of the Premises as a tenant from
month to month, at a monthly rental equal to the monthly installment of Fixed Rent payable during
