Premises is taken and severance damages are awarded on account
of the Premises, or an award is made for detriment to the

32. EMERGENCY RESPONSE. Tenant shall be required to become familiar with
Landlord's emergency response procedures and notification process effective in
Building 02. A complete description of Tektronix' procedures and evacuation maps
shall be obtained by Tenant from Landlord. These procedures, contact persons,
and maps may be changed from time to time. In the event of an emergency within
Building 02, the following procedures should be followed by Tenant:
32.1 TYPES OF EMERGENCIES AND PROCEDURES TO BE FOLLOWED.
32.1.1 SPRINKLER FLOW ALARM. This alarm is caused by a flow in
the sprinkler system and triggers an alarm with Tektronix
Security. When the alarm is triggered, Tektronix Security
will immediately contact the Fire Department and the
Tektronix Emergency Response Team (the "ER Team"). If the
Tenant determines there is any danger to employees, Tenant
should instruct its employees to evacuate the building
immediately and proceed to a designated assembly point. A
management representative for Tenant should report to the
Building Command Post. If Tenant becomes aware that the
sprinkler flow alarm has been triggered because of a
broken sprinkler head or pipe, Tenant shall call 000-0000
immediately to report the problem.
32.1.2 FIRE CALL-IN. In the event of a fire, Tenant shall call
627-3333 immediately. Tektronix Security will immediately
contact the Fire Department and the ER Team. Tenant shall
follow the evacuation procedures described above.
32.1.3 BUILDING EVACUATION ALARM. Building 02 has an evacuation
alarm system that can be activated by pulling one of the
alarm stations which are located throughout the building.
Anyone activating the alarm should call 000-0000
immediately to report the problem. The evacuation alarm is
also triggered automatically by sprinkler water flow
detectors. The same procedures for evacuating the building
and reporting to the Command Post should be followed as
outlined for the sprinkler flow alarm. The ER Team will
determine the cause of the alarm, take appropriate
actions, and restore the alarm system.
32.1.4 MEDICAL EMERGENCY. In case of a medical emergency, Tenant
should call 911 immediately to report the problem.
32.2 TENANT RESI2ONSIBILITIES. As part of Building 02's emergency plan,
the following actions are expected of Tenant to help protect life,
environment, and property:
-14-
32.2.1 EMERGENCY PLAN. Tenant shall prepare an emergency plan
covering the desired actions of its employees for all
types of emergencies. This plan shall be consistent with
Tektronix emergency plans for Building 02.
32.2.2 MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATIVES. Tenant shall designate
management representatives to report to the Building
Command Post in the event of an emergency. These
individuals shall be knowledgeable of Building 02
emergency procedures and shall have the authority to make
decisions regarding Tenant's operations, property, and
personnel,
32.2.3 BUILDING 02 COMMAND POST. Tenant shall know the location
of the Building 02 Command Post and shall have a
designated management representative report to the Command
Post in an emergency. This is the point of initial
response for the Fire Department, Tektronix ER Team, and
other emergency services.
32.2.4 TRAINING. Tenant shall provide appropriate emergency
procedure training for its employees, including:
a) Informing Tenant's employees, contractors, agents,
etc. of the actions required in all types of
emergencies;
b) Posting emergency numbers, designated assembly areas,
the Building 02 Command Post; and
c) Coordinating emergency system test with Tektronix
Security and Building 02 tenants.
32.3 TEKTRONIX EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM. Tektronix has formed the ER Team to
respond to emergencies on the Beaverton campus. The ER Team is currently
comprised of members who are trained for various types of emergencies, building
system operations, incident command, first-aid, and CPR. In an emergency, the ER
Team reports to the emergency Command Post, sets up communications, and takes
whichever actions are deemed appropriate under the circumstances, including
calling in back-up support. Although the ER Team's purpose is to assist in
emergencies, it is not required to respond in all instances or to provide all of
the services outlined above. These services will be provided to Tenant without
charge (except for repair or cleanup of damage resulting from Tenant's actions).
In the event the ER Team responds to an emergency, neither Tektronix nor its
employees will be liable under any circumstances for loss of or injury to
property, however occurring, through or in connection with ER Team activities.
Tektronix and its employees shall not be liable for injury to persons unless the
injury results from Tektronix' gross negligence or willful misconduct. Tenant
will defend, indemnify, and hold Tektronix and its employees harmless from any
and all such excluded claims by employees of Tenant. The ER Team or ER Team
services to Building 02 may also be terminated by Tektronix at any time and for
any reason.
