	Visa:	 	/s/ Michael Vollmer     /s/ Pietro Bacino

 The net rent amount can once a year – with a 1-month notice - for the first time on 01.01.2006 be adjusted in
accordance to the changes of the Swiss country-wide consumer price index. The rent adjustment is calculated according to the following formula: 
  

			
	 Current Index - Index from last adjustment
	 	 x

	100	 
	 Index from last adjustment
	 	 

  
 The
rent shall never be lower than the initial rent defined at the start of the lease. 
  
 Rent increases due to additional services provided by the Lessor can also be asserted during the fixed term of the lease. Such rent increases will be announced 1 month in advance of the first day of the next month, and the Lessee will be
notified in the form required for such transactions. 
  
 If necessary, account
payments for heating and operating costs and flat fees for incidental costs can also be adjusted during the fixed term of the lease in compliance with the one-month notice in the form required for such transactions for the first day of the next
month, whereby the heating and operating costs will be adjusted based on the actual costs, and the incidental fees will be adjusted in accordance to the actual occurring costs and the changes in the country-wide consumer price index. 
  
 In the case of several Lessees (joint Lessees), the notice
does not have to be delivered separately for each Lessee. 
  

	7.7	Sales Tax 

  
 The Lessee agrees to make rent payments (including incidental costs) increased by the amount of the sales tax (currently 7.6 %) in the event that the Lessor decides to exercise the option to make the leased property
subject to sales tax. 
  
 A corresponding adjustment of the rent (including
incidental costs) will be applied in the required form at least one month in advance, and can be asserted for the date, on which the sales tax liability becomes effective. Subsequent sales tax rate changes can be asserted in the same manner in the
form of rent increases. 
  

	7.8	Incidental Costs 

  
 The term “incidental costs” stands for heating, hot water and operating costs. 
  
 If account payments have been previously agreed for the heating, hot water and operating
costs, the Lessor will charge these costs once annually. 
  
 The due date for payment of the heating and operating charges is June 30. 
  

 -3- 

			
		
	Visa:	 	/s/ Michael Vollmer     /s/ Pietro Bacino

 The costs for heating and hot water include all cost types per Art. 5 VMWG plus the decalcification of any individual
water heaters in the leased property (every 3 years), and an administrative fee of 3% of the sales tax. The operating cost, if applicable, include the following charges: 
  

	 	•	 	Maintenance, including sales tax and social benefits and vacation substitute for the maintenance man, rent for the maintenance man’s room, small expenses

  

	 	•	 	Lease and service of maintenance equipment 

  

	 	•	 	Cleaning of the generally accessible rooms and areas, including cleaning materials and lightbulb replacements 

  

	 	•	 	Periodical container cleaning 

  

	 	•	 	Cleaning of glass and metal storefronts or parts of storefronts 

  

	 	•	 	General use of electricity, water / sewage / sewer system / waste removal, incl. the corresponding basic fees - Lawn care, Grünabfuhr and Gartenabraum 

 

	 	•	 	Snow and ice removal, including salt 

  

	 	•	 	Radio and cable TV fees

	 	•	 	Salt, filters and service for water treatment equipment 

  

	 	•	 	Preventive sewer and pipe flushings 

  

	 	•	 	Charges for security services 

  

	 	•	 	Charges for facility management services 

  

	 	•	 	Administrative fee: 3.5 % + sales tax 

  
 The billing for the heating, hot water and operating costs is considered as agreed to provided the Lessee does not object in writing within a period of 30 days after
having received the bill with the Lessor or the Lessor’s representative. The Lessee has the right to review the detailed bill and its associated receipts in their original form, or have them reviewed by an authorized representative. 

 
 Additional charges are payable within 30 days after receipt of the invoice. Refunds are
payable within the same time period. 
  
 During heating season, the heat shall not
be completely turned off in any rooms. Heaters set by the Lessee to a lowered output do not result in reduced heating charges. 
  

	7.9	Dues and Expenses 

  
 Dues and expenses exclusively caused by the business of the Lessee are payable by the Lessee, even if they are imposed by the Lessor. 
  
 If the business operations of the Lessee are associated with a disproportionate use of water, the Lessor may order the installation of a
separate water meter at the Lessee’s expense. The water consumption is included in the charges for the operating costs. 
  
 Incidental costs, for which a utility provider or office (including cable networks) charges the Lessee directly, and which are not listed in the lease, are payable
directly by the Lessee.

	8	Start of the Lease / Leasing Term 

  
 The lease starts on 01/12/2005 
  
 Starting at this date the rent is due. In the event that the transfer takes place before this date – especially for upgrades performed by the Lessee – the risk is transferred to the Lessee. 
  
 The lease ends on 30/11/2010 
  
 The lease is time-limited, and ends without advance notice on 30/11/2010. 
  

	9	Early Termination 

  
 If the Lessee wishes to end the lease without compliance to the agreed time periods and dates, the Lessee is until the property is rented again, at a maximum until the next contractually available termination date
liable for the rent, the incidental costs and the other duties of the Lessee. The advertising costs and additional administrative costs associated with the unscheduled re-leasing are payable by the Lessee, who is moving out of the property.

  
 The Lessee can be released from the lease agreement outside the scheduled time
period only, if he/she is suggests a reasonable new Lessee, who is solvent and willing to assume the lease under the same conditions. The Lessor shall be given sufficient time – usually 30 days – for the necessary arrangements. 

 

	10	Renewal Option 

  
 The Lessee is being offered a renewal option for an additional 5 years, i.e. from 01.12.2010 to 30/11/2015. The Lessee is required to exercise this option until at the latest 30.11.2009 by registered letter, otherwise
the renewal option becomes invalid, and the lease ends without advance notice on 30.11.2010. 
  
 If the Lessee decides to exercise the option, the Lessor has the right to adjust the rent to the start of the option period according to the then applicable market conditions. Rent charges below the rates applicable
at this time are excluded. 
  
 The new rent and the new lease will be delivered to
the Lessee for signature at the latest one month after the option has been exercised. If the Lessee does not return the signed new lease within 30 days after receipt, this is considered a withdrawal from the declaration to exercise the option, and
the renewal option becomes definitely invalid. 
  
 If the option is exercised, the
lease ends after the option period has expired without the requirement of advance notice. 
  
 If the Lessee transfers the lease as defined in Art. 263 OR to a third party, the option right shall be deemed as cancelled.

the amount of SWF 56,000.00.

deposit must be available at the time the key is being handed over. 
  

	12	Floor Plans 

  
 The attached floor plans at a scale of 1:200 dated on 08/04/2004 are an integral part of this lease and will be undersigned by both parties. 
  
 Any deviations in space do not entitle to changes in rent. 
  

	13	Upgrades / Structural Changes by the Lessee / Building Contractor Liens / Reversal 

  

	13.1	Upgrades by the Lessor 

  
 The agreed net rent applies to bare, i.e. unfinished rooms (Building Shell 2) as follows: 
  

			
	 •      Floor:
	  	Concrete floor, bare
	 •      Walls:
	  	Enclosing walls, unfinished daub
	 •      Ceiling:
	  	Concrete – wood ceiling, unfinished
	 •      Electrical:
	  	From the mains, responsibility of the Lessee
	 •      Sanitarian:
	  	Connection possibilities available

  
 The costs for the upgrades by the
Lessee and the maintenance and replacement of all fixtures and improvements as well as installations and equipment are expressly and exclusively payable by the Lessee. 
  
 Any already existing fixtures and improvements as well as installations that were made by the Lessor or a previous Lessee will be left for
use by the Lessee in the current condition, and without additional charges to the rent without any guarantees. The maintenance and the replacement, additional fixtures and improvements and installations are from then on expressly and exclusively
payable by the Lessee. 
  
 The Lessee is obligated to tolerate the routing of
ducts, pipes, cables, etc. in the floors and ceilings without reimbursement. 
  

	13.2	Structural Changes made by the Lessee 

  
 The Lessee has the right to finish or alter the leased property in accordance to his/her needs, whereby the respective altering and finishing projects require advance
written approval by the Lessor. I doing so, the Lessee is required to submit the according blueprints/floor plans at a scale of 1:50, cost estimates and detailed descriptions of the structural changes. 
  
 The Lessor can request a guarantee for the financing of the changes, which the Lessee must
submit prior to the start of the construction work. 
  

 -6- 

			
		
	Visa:	 	/s/ Michael Vollmer     /s/ Pietro Bacino

 The Lessee is responsible for compliance with all applicable legal rules and regulations like the communal and cantonal
building law, SIA standards and guidelines of the relevant trade associations, SUVA regulations, fire protection requirements, etc., including the obtainment of all necessary official permits. The building statics (floor load, supporting
elements) shall be especially observed. The attached letter from the Volkert and Zimmermann engineering office in regard to load capacity is an integral part of the leasing agreement. 
  
 Finishing and alteration projects by the Lessee shall be performed under utmost consideration of the other lessees. In office buildings with
residential space these types of work are only allowed on business days and during normal working hours only. The Lessee is responsible for all costs arising directly or indirectly from the construction work. This does also include costs from damage
claims of third parties, rent reduction claims from lessees in the building due to building immissions, any legal proceedings opened against the Lessor, etc. hookup fees for water, electricity, sewer, etc. 
  
 In the case of structural changes to the general parts of the building, the Lessor has the
right to stipulate planners, companies, products and systems, especially regarding statics, installation and building shell. 
  
 The Lessee is liable for any material, personal and financial damages, which may occur in connection with the structural changes, improvements, installations and
fixtures. The Lessee is therefore obliged to purchase a contractors’ liability insurance for each construction project. 
  

	13.3	Building Contractor Liens 

  
 The Lessee guarantees that the involved workmen, contractors, and suppliers will not file any contractor liens. Should this happen anyway, the Lessee is responsible that
these liens will immediately and at his/her expense be deleted already at the time of the preliminary tentative entry in the real property register. In the event of non-compliance the Lessee is liable to the Lessor for any damages arising therefrom.

  
 In the case of larger investments the Lessor has the right to demand the
projected costs to be made available in a blocked account or through a bank guaranty in order to avoid contractor liens. 
  

	13.4	Reversal of Structural Changes 

  
 Any structural changes and installations initiated and paid for by the Lessee can, after the lease has ended, be transferred to the Lessor at the current value (minus
applicable Lessor participation). However, the Lessee has no recourse against the Lessor. Upon the Lessor’s request, the property must be restored to its original condition in accordance with Chapter “Structural Changes by the Lessee”
(or to a condition accepted by the subsequent lessee) at the Lessee’s expense. 
  

	14	Risk for Damages 

  
 The Lessor insures the leased property without chattels and furnishings with the cantonal building insurance institute or, in cantons, where such insurance is not available, with a private insurance company against
fire and weather damage. 
  
 Increases in building insurance premiums due to
structural changes by the Lessee are charged to the Lessee once annually. 
  

 -7- 

			
		
	Visa:	 	/s/ Michael Vollmer     /s/ Pietro Bacino

 The Lessee assumes the risk for all damages to his/her furnishings, installations and goods brought into the building
caused by fire, water, explosion, humidity, break-in, theft, etc. The Lessee purchases the necessary insurance at his / her own expense. 
  
 The Lessee furthermore assumes the risk for all glass panels in his/her leased office space. Cracked or broken glass panels must be replaced with glass of the same type
and quality. The Lessee is released from the according replacement only if he/she can prove that the damage was caused by faulty installation or tensions in the frame. 
  
 The Lessor purchases liability insurance for damages against third parties only to the extent of his/her liability. Anything beyond that is
the Lessee’s responsibility. 
  

	15	Cleaning 

  
 The regular, complete cleaning of the leased property and the windows and shutters associated with the leased property (inside and outside) as well as signs, illuminated advertising, and mail boxes is the
Lessee’s responsibility, and shall be performed at the Lessee’s expense. 
  
 If parts of the building are soiled or infested with vermin because of the Lessee’s non-compliance with the cleaning duty, the Lessee is liable for any immediate and consequential damages. 
  
 If rooms for general use are being used by several lessees, they are required to arrange the
cleaning and the replacement of the cleaning supplies (Unless otherwise provided by the Lessor, in which case the charges will be included in the charges for incidental expenses.) 
  

	16	Transfer 

  
 The Lessor transfers the leased property to the Lessee in usable and clean condition. This condition is defined in Chapter “Upgrades by the Lessor”. A claim to a new value of the accepted leased property
and/or the leased facilities is excluded. 
  
 The transfer takes place according
to a transfer protocol. The Lessee is required to report any deficiencies in the leased property not listed in the protocol within 10 days after the start of the lease by registered letter. Exceptions are hidden defects. They must be reported in
writing immediately after having been discovered. 
  
 If the Lessor doesn’t
receive any reports of this type, it will be assumed that the leased property has been transferred in proper condition according to protocol. 
  

	17	Key Directory 

  
 The transfer protocol contains a listing of the transferred keys/badges. Any keys/badges lost during the term of the lease must be replaced by the Lessee until at the latest by the end of the lease at his/her own
expense. The Lessor has in such cases the right to change or replace the locking system and keys/badges at the Lessee’s expense. Any additional keys/badges made by the Lessee shall be transferred to the Lessor at the time of the move free of
charge.

	18	Factory Inspectorate Permits / Statutory Provisions for Industrial Businesses and the Fire and Health Department 

  
 All permits required for the use of the leased property and the business must be obtained by
the Lessee directly and at his/her own expense and complied with. 
  

	19	Use of the Leased property 

  

	19.1	Duty of Care and Consideration 

  
 The Lessee is required to treat the leased object with proper care and keep the property in good and clean condition. The leased property shall be used of the agreed
purpose only. Any changes require the Lessor’s written approval. The Lessee is liable for damages caused by any use contrary to the terms of this agreement. 
  
 In using the leased property, the Lessee must be considerate of his/her fellow lessees and neighbors. The Lessee is not allowed to use
