TERM:

For and in consideration of the rents, terms, provisions and covenants herein contained, Landlord hereby lets, leases and demises to Tenant, the Premises for the term of 36 months commencing May 1, 2018 (hereinafter called the “Commencement Date”) and expiring the 36 months thereafter (sometimes called the “Expiration Date”), unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided (the “Term”).

BASE RENT:

Landlord reserves and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, the rent designated in Article 42 of the attached Addendum, payable in advance without notice, offset, deduction or demand, in equal monthly installments as set forth in the Addendum, commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing on the first day of each and every month thereafter for the next succeeding months during the Term (the “Base Rent”) or any extension or renewal thereof. In the event the Commencement Date falls on a date other than the first of a month, or the Expiration Date falls on a date other than the last of the month, Base Rent for that month shall be prorated and adjusted accordingly.

ADDITIONAL RENT:

Tenant shall pay to Landlord throughout the Term of this Lease the following (“Additional Rent”):

a. Tenant shall pay a sum equal to 19.56% of the Real Estate Taxes. The term “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean all real estate taxes, fees, charges and assessments, general and special, and any taxes in lieu thereof, which become due or payable against or upon the Building or the Property of which the Premises are a part. All attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred by Landlord during negotiation for or contests of the amount of Real Estate Taxes shall be included in the term “Real Estate Taxes.” Tenant, in addition to all other payments to Landlord by Tenant required hereunder, shall pay to Landlord, in each year during the Term of this Lease and any extension or renewal thereof, Tenant's proportionate share of Real Estate Taxes. Any tax year commencing during any lease year shall be deemed to correspond to such lease year. In the event the taxing authorities include in such real estate taxes and assessments the value of any improvements made by Tenant, or of machinery, equipment, fixtures, inventory or other personal property or assets of Tenant, then Tenant shall pay all the taxes attributable to such items in addition to its proportionate share of said Real Estate Taxes. A copy of the tax statement submitted by Landlord to Tenant shall be sufficient evidence of the amount of Real Estate Taxes assessed or levied against the Property of which the Premises are a part. Where any Real Estate Taxes may be paid in annual installments, only the amount of the annual installment levied in such year will be included within the computation of Real Estate Taxes for such year. In the case of general or special assessments, regardless of whether Landlord elects to pay the assessments in installments, Tenant’s share of such assessments shall be computed as if Landlord has elected to pay the same in installments over the longest period allowed by applicable law, and only those installments (or partial installments) attributable to installment periods (or partial periods) falling within the Lease Term shall be included in Real Estate Taxes.

b. Tenant shall pay a sum equal to 19.56% of the annual aggregate Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord in the operation, maintenance and repair of the Building and Property during the Term of this Lease and any renewals or extensions thereof. The term “Operating Expenses” shall include but not be limited to all payments by Landlord for maintenance, repair, operation, replacement and care of all Common Areas (including common area utilities and lighting), mechanical rooms, common area plumbing, roofs, parking and landscaped areas, signs, snow removal, non-structural repair and maintenance of the exterior of the Building, insurance premiums, management fee (not to exceed 5% of gross building revenue), wages and fringe benefits of personnel employed for such work, costs of equipment purchased and used for such purposes, and the cost or portion thereof properly allocable to the Property (amortized in accordance with GAAP standards together with the interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum on the unamortized balance) of any capital improvements made to the Building by Landlord after the Base Year which result in a reduction of Operating Expenses or made to the Building by Landlord after the date of this Lease that are required under any governmental law or regulation that was not applicable to the Building at the time it was constructed or that are required by the insurer under any insurance policy carried on the Property and Building by Landlord. Operating Expenses shall also include a yearly capital reserve to be held in a segregated account until and for the use of replacement of black topped surfaced driveway and parking areas and Building mechanical equipment when needed. The amount of such reserve shall be determined by reasonable accounting and building management purposes. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Operating Expenses in which Tenant is to share under this Lease shall not include (i) costs for which Landlord is reimbursed by insurance or otherwise compensated by third parties, (ii) costs which are to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP (except as expressly provided in this paragraph); (iii) leasing commissions, leasing fees or advertising fees, (iv) attorneys' fees for enforcing leases against other tenants, (v) costs directly billed to other tenants; (vi) repairs necessitated by the negligent acts or willful omissions of Landlord, its employees, agents or contractors, (vii) improvements, repairs and replacements within the premises of another tenant within the Building; (viii) depreciation; (ix) interest, on debt or amortization on any mortgage or mortgages encumbering the Property; (x) Landlord's general overhead; (xi) repairs or replacements covered by warranties or guaranties to the extent of service or payment thereunder; (xii) executive salaries or salaries of service personnel to the extent that such executives or service personnel perform services other than in connection with the management, operation, repair or maintenance of the Building or Common Areas; (xiii) any charges that would result in Landlord collecting in excess of one hundred percent (100%) of all Operating Expenses; (xiv) costs relating to or in connection with the presence of Hazardous Materials on, in, under, migrating to or from the Premises or Property; and (xv) management fees (in excess of 5% of gross building revenue).

For purposes of this Article, Tenant’s “pro rata share” or “proportionate share” shall be determined on the same ratio as the total square feet in the Premises bears to the total square feet in the Building. Landlord may at any time designate a fiscal year in lieu of a calendar year or visa versa and in such event, at the time of such change, there may be a billing for the year which is less than twelve (12) calendar months. Landlord reserves, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord, the sole and exclusive right to contest, protest and petition for review, or otherwise seek a reduction in Real Estate Taxes.

The payment of the sums set forth in this Article 3 shall be in addition to the Base Rent payable pursuant to Article 2 of this Lease. All sums due hereunder as Additional Rent shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days of delivery of written certification by Landlord setting forth the computation of the amount due from Tenant. In the event the Term shall begin or expire at any time during the calendar year, Tenant shall be responsible for his pro-rata share of Real Estate Taxes and Operating Expenses during the Term of this Lease and/or occupancy time.

Prior to commencement of the Term of this Lease, and prior to the commencement of each calendar year thereafter commencing during the Term of this Lease or any renewal or extension thereof, Landlord may estimate for each calendar year (i) the total amount of Real Estate Taxes; (ii) the total amount of Operating Expenses; (iii) Tenant's share of Real Estate Taxes for such calendar year; (iv) Tenant's share of Operating Expenses for such calendar year; and (v) the computation of the annual and monthly Rent payable during such calendar year as a result of increases or decreases in Tenant's share of Real Estate Taxes and Operating Expenses. Said estimates will be in writing and will be delivered or mailed to Tenant.

The amount of Tenant's share of Real Estate Taxes and Operating Expenses for each calendar year, so estimated, shall be payable as Additional Rent by Tenant, without offset, deduction or demand, in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each month during such calendar year at the option of Landlord. In the event that such estimate is delivered to Tenant before the first day of January of such calendar year, said amount, so estimated, shall be payable as Additional Rent in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each month during such calendar year. In the event that such estimate is delivered to Tenant after the first day of January of such calendar year, said amount, so estimated, shall be payable as Additional Rent in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each month over the balance of such calendar year, with the number of installments being equal to the number of full calendar months remaining in such calendar year.

Upon completion of each calendar year during the Term of this Lease or any renewal or extension thereof, Landlord shall cause its accountants to determine the actual amount of the Real Estate Taxes and Operating Expenses payable in such calendar year and Tenant's share thereof and deliver a written certification of the amounts thereof to Tenant. If Tenant has underpaid its share of Real Estate Taxes or Operating Expenses for such calendar year, Tenant shall pay the balance of its share of same within ten (10) business days after the receipt of such statement. If Tenant has overpaid its share of Real Estate Taxes or Operating Expenses for such calendar year, Landlord shall either (i) refund such excess, or (ii) credit such excess against the most current monthly installment or installments due Landlord for its estimate of Tenant's share of Real Estate Taxes and Operating Expenses for the next following calendar year. A pro rata adjustment shall be made for a fractional calendar year occurring during the term of the Lease or any renewal or extension thereof based upon the number of days of the term of the Lease during said calendar year as compared to three hundred sixty-five (365) days and all additional sums payable by Tenant or credits due Tenant as a result of the provision of this Article 3 shall be adjusted accordingly.

c. Landlord shall keep reasonably detailed records of all Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes for a period of at least three (3) years. Not more frequently than once in every 12-month period and after at least twenty (20) days' prior written notice to Landlord, Tenant shall be permitted to review or audit the records of the Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes either directly or through agents. If Tenant exercises its review or audit rights as provided above, Tenant shall conduct any inspection at a reasonable time and in a manner so as not to unduly disrupt the conduct of Landlord's business. Any such inspection by Tenant shall be for the sole purpose of verifying the Operating Expenses and/or Real Estate Taxes. Any shortfall or excess revealed and verified by Tenant's audit shall be paid to the applicable party within thirty (30) days after that party is notified of the shortfall or excess to the extent such overage or shortfall has not previously been adjusted pursuant to this Lease. If Tenant's inspection of the records for any given calendar year or partial calendar year reveals that Tenant was overcharged for Operating Expenses or Real Estate Taxes by an amount of greater than four percent (4%), or if any overcharge was due to intentional fraudulent or grossly negligent conduct by Landlord, then, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable costs of the review or audit.

COVENANT TO PAY RENT:

The covenants of Tenant to pay the Base Rent and the Additional Rent are each independent of any other covenant, condition, provision or agreement contained in this Lease (together Base Rent and Additional Rent shall sometimes be referred to as “Rent”). All Rent is payable to Landlord at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000. No receipt or acceptance by Landlord from Tenant of less than the monthly Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than a partial payment on account for any due and unpaid stipulated Rent; no endorsement or statement on any check or any letter or other writing accompanying any check or payment of Rent to Landlord shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept and negotiate such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s rights to recover the remaining balance of such unpaid Rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.

UTILITIES:

Landlord shall provide mains and conduits to supply water, gas, electricity and sanitary sewage to the Property. Tenant shall pay, when due, directly to the appropriate provider, all charges for sewer usage or rental, garbage disposal, trash or refuse removal, water, electricity, gas, fuel oil, L.P. gas, telephone and/or other utility services or energy source separately metered and furnished to the Premises during the Term of this Lease, or any renewal or extension thereof, together with any related installation or connection charges or deposits (“Utility Costs”). If additional costs are required to separately meter the Premises it will be at Landlord's sole cost and expense. If any services or utilities furnished to the Premises are jointly metered with other premises, Landlord will make a commercially reasonable determination of Tenant’s proportionate share of such Utility Costs and Tenant, within ten (10) days following Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefore, shall pay such share to Landlord as Additional Rent. If Landlord elects to furnish any of the foregoing utility services or other services furnished or caused to be furnished to Tenant, then the rate charged by Landlord shall not exceed the rate Tenant would be required to pay to a utility company or service company furnishing any of the foregoing utilities or services. The charges thereof shall be deemed Additional Rent in accordance with Article 3. Landlord shall not be liable for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Base Rent or Additional Rent by reason of Landlord’s failure to furnish any of the foregoing utilities, when such failure is caused by accident, breakage, repairs (including replacements), strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances or labor disputes of any character, or for any other causes not attributable to Landlord.

CARE AND REPAIR OF PREMISES:

Tenant shall, at all times throughout the Term of this Lease, including renewals and extensions, and at its sole expense, keep and maintain the Premises in a clean, safe, sanitary and first class condition and in compliance with all applicable laws, codes, ordinances, rules and regulations. Tenant's obligations hereunder shall include but not be limited to the maintenance, repair and replacement, if necessary, of mechanical, heating and air conditioning fixtures, equipment, and systems; all lighting and electrical systems; all plumbing fixtures and equipment; any and all other fixtures, motors and machinery; all interior walls, partitions, doors and windows, including the regular painting thereof; all exterior entrances, windows, doors, garage doors, docks and dock levelers, bumpers and seals, and the replacement of all broken glass; and all interior walls, columns, floors and doors of the trash enclosures. When used in this provision, the term "repairs" shall include replacements or renewals when necessary, and all such repairs made by Tenant shall be equal in quality and class to the original work. The Tenant shall keep and maintain all portions of the Premises, trash enclosures and the sidewalk and areas adjoining the same in a safe, clean and orderly condition, free of accumulation of dirt and rubbish. Tenant shall be responsible for the prompt removal of snow, ice and other hazardous conditions accumulating or occurring on the sidewalks and walkways between the Premises and parking areas. Maintenance of the HVAC shall specifically include the reasonable cost of quarterly inspections performed by Landlord's own engineers or by an independent mechanical contractor who shall be contracted for by Landlord. In either event, said cost shall be included by Landlord in Operating Expenses under Article 3 of this Lease Agreement and Landlord warrants that any such cost will be reasonable and competitive.

If Tenant fails, refuses or neglects to maintain or repair the Premises as required in this Lease after written notice shall have been given to Tenant, in accordance with Article 33 of this Lease, Landlord may, at its option, make such repairs without liability to Tenant for any loss or damage that may accrue to Tenant's merchandise, fixtures or other property or to Tenant's business by reason thereof, and upon completion thereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs plus 10% of overhead incurred by Landlord in making such repairs upon presentation to Tenant of a xxxx therefore.

Landlord shall repair, at its expense, the structural portions of the Building, provided however where structural repairs are required to be made by reason of the acts of Tenant, the costs thereof shall be borne by Tenant and payable by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

Landlord shall be responsible for all outside maintenance of the Premises, including grounds, parking areas and outside areas around trash enclosures. All such maintenance which is the responsibility of Landlord shall be provided as reasonably necessary to the comfortable use and occupancy of Premises during business hours, except Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, upon the condition that Landlord shall not be liable for damages for failure to do so due to causes beyond its control. Landlord shall ensure access to the Premises, including timely snow removal all days.

SIGNS:

Any sign, lettering, picture, notice or advertisement installed on or in any part of the Property and visible from the exterior of the Building, or visible from the exterior of the Premises, must be approved in advance by Landlord and the City and installed at Tenant's expense. In the event of a violation of the foregoing by Tenant, Landlord may remove the same without notice and without any liability and may charge the expense incurred for such removal to Tenant. Tenant agrees to comply with the sign criteria of the City and the sign criteria attached here to as Exhibit E. Tenant agrees to maintain its signage in good repair, and to hold Landlord harmless from any loss, cost or damages resulting from the erection, existence, maintenance or removal of the signage.

ALTERATIONS:

Tenant will not make any alterations, repairs, installations, additions or improvements in or to the Premises, or add, disturb or in any way change any plumbing, wiring, life/safety or mechanical systems, locks, or structural portions of the Building (for purposes of this Article 8, any of the foregoing being referred to as “Alterations”) without the prior written consent of the Landlord as to the character of the Alterations, the manner of doing the Alterations, and the contractor(s) doing the Alterations. Such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if such Alterations are required of Tenant or is the obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Lease. As a condition to Landlord’s consent to the Alterations proposed by Tenant, Landlord may impose reasonable conditions with respect thereto as Landlord deems appropriate, including, without limitation, requiring Tenant to furnish surety performance and/or payment bonds or other security for the payment of all costs incurred in connection with such Alterations, insurance against liabilities that may arise out of such Alterations, plans and specifications approved by Landlord and permits necessary for such Alterations. If such Alterations are performed by contractor(s) not retained by Landlord, Tenant shall upon completion of such Alterations, (i) deliver to Landlord evidence that payment for all such Alterations have been made by Tenant, including contractors’ affidavits and full and final mechanic’s lien waivers and (ii) pay to Landlord a construction supervision fee of five percent (5%) of the total cost of such Alterations, but in no event less than $500.00 to reimburse Landlord for the costs incurred by its construction manager in inspecting and supervising such Alterations (provided, however, that the construction supervision fee for minor Work approved by Landlord with a total cost less than $1,000.00 shall be charged at $101.00 per hour). All such Alterations shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner using quality materials and shall comply with all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, rules and regulations. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord free and harmless from any liability, loss, cost, damage or expense (including attorney’s fees) by reason of any of such Alterations. The provisions of Article 18 of this Lease Agreement shall apply to all Alterations performed under this Article 8. All Alterations to the Premises made by Tenant shall at the option of Landlord become the property of Landlord and shall be either removed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost or surrendered to Landlord upon the termination of this Lease Agreement, provided, however, this clause shall not apply, and Tenant shall retain title and rights to all, to movable equipment, whiteboard, artwork, audio visual equipment and industrial and other property or machinery mounted or secured to the Premises, or furniture owned by Tenant which may be removed by Tenant at the end of the Term of this Lease Agreement if Tenant is not then in default. Landlord shall provide Tenant with notice of Tenant's obligation to remove any such Alteration at the end of the Lease Term at the time that Landlord grants consent to such Alteration. If Landlord does not notify Tenant that Tenant is obligated to remove such Alteration, such Alteration may be removed at Tenant's option, as provided in Article 25 hereof.

POSSESSION:

Except as otherwise provided, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Premises with any tenant improvements thereto substantially completed on or before the Commencement Date, but delivery of possession prior to such Commencement Date shall not affect the Expiration Date of this Lease. Time is of the essence. Failure of Landlord to deliver possession of the Premises by the Commencement Date due to any cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, including, without limitation, a holding over by a prior tenant, labor or material shortages, strikes, casualty loss, acts of God or failure by the City to timely approve any plans or issue a building permit (any of the foregoing being hereafter referred to as an “Excused Delay”), shall automatically postpone the Commencement Date and shall extend the Expiration Date accordingly, and Tenant may continue its occupancy of Suite 450 of the Building during the period of any such delay. The Rent herein reserved shall commence on the first day of the Term, provided, however, in the event of any occupancy by Tenant prior to the beginning of the Term, such occupancy shall in all respects be the same as that of a tenant under this Lease, and the Rent shall commence as of the date that Tenant enters into such occupancy of the Premises. Provided further, that if Landlord shall be delayed in delivery of the Premises to Tenant due to Tenant's failure to timely deliver any plans to Landlord or make any required deposit, changes in or additions to plans or tenant improvements made at the request of Tenant or any other delay caused by Tenant or any of its contractors, agents or employees, or by Tenant's failure to pay for the costs of the tenant improvements in excess of any tenant improvement allowance and any deposit (any of the foregoing being hereafter referred to as a “Tenant Delay”), then in such case Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent shall be accelerated by the number of days of such Tenant Delay. Prior to the commencement of the Term, Landlord shall have no responsibility or liability for loss or damage to trade fixtures or equipment installed or left on the Premises. By occupying the Premises as a tenant, or to install trade fixtures or equipment, or to perform finishing work, Tenant shall be conclusively deemed to have accepted the same and to have acknowledged that the Premises are in the condition required by this Lease, except for any items for which Tenant has given Landlord a detailed, written list within thirty (30) days of Tenant's first occupancy of the Premises. Should the commencement date of the Term of this Lease occur for any reason on a day other than the first day of the calendar month, then in that event solely for the purposes of determining the Expiration Date of the Term of this Lease, the Term shall be deemed to have commenced on the first (1^st) day of the calendar month immediately following. Following Tenant's occupancy of the Premises and within ten (10) days of Landlord’s request, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a ratification agreement which shall set forth the final commencement and expiration dates of the Term, shall acknowledge the Base Rent, the square footage of the Premises (office space and warehouse, shared mechanical space), delivery of the Premises in the condition required by this Lease Agreement and shall include such other matters as Landlord may reasonably request (hereafter the “Ratification Agreement”). A draft of the Ratification Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit F.

10.

SECURITY AND DAMAGE DEPOSIT:

Tenant, contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease, has deposited with Landlord the sum of Twenty-Two Thousand Eight and 96/100 Dollars ($22,008.96), receipt of which is acknowledged hereby by Landlord, which deposit is to be held by Landlord, without liability for interest, as a security and damage deposit for the faithful performance by Tenant during the Term hereof, or any renewal or extension thereof (the “Security Deposit”). Prior to the time when Tenant shall be entitled to the return of the Security Deposit, Landlord may commingle the Security Deposit with Landlord's own funds and use the Security Deposit for such purpose as Landlord may determine. In the event Tenant fails to keep and perform any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant, then Landlord, either with or without terminating this Lease may (but shall not be required to) apply such portion of the Security Deposit as may be necessary to compensate or repay Landlord for all losses or damages sustained or to be sustained by Landlord due to such breach on the part of Tenant, including, but not limited to overdue and unpaid Rent, any other sum payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, damages or deficiencies in the reletting of Premises, and reasonable attorney's fees incurred by Landlord. Should the entire Security Deposit or any portion thereof, be appropriated and applied by Landlord, in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, Tenant upon written demand by Landlord, shall remit forthwith to Landlord a sufficient amount of cash to restore the Security Deposit to the original sum deposited, and Tenant's failure to do so within five (5) days after receipt of such demand shall constitute a breach of this Lease. The Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant, less any depletion thereof as the result of the provisions of this paragraph, at the end of the Term of this Lease or any renewal or extension thereof, or upon the earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall have no right to anticipate return of the Security Deposit by withholding any amount required to be paid pursuant to the provisions of this Lease or otherwise. Tenant understands that its potential liability under this Lease is not limited to the amount of the Security Deposit. Use of the Security Deposit by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver, but is in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease and under law.

In the event Landlord shall sell the Property, or shall otherwise convey or dispose of its interest in this Lease, Landlord may assign the Security Deposit or any balance thereof to Landlord's assignee, whereupon Landlord shall be released from all liability for the return or repayment of the Security Deposit and Tenant shall look solely to the said assignee for the return and repayment of the Security Deposit. The Security Deposit shall not be assigned or encumbered by Tenant without such consent of Landlord, and any assignment or encumbrance without such consent shall not bind Landlord. In the event of any rightful and permitted assignment of this Lease by Tenant, the Security Deposit shall be deemed to be held by Landlord as a deposit made by the assignee, and Landlord shall have no further liability with respect to the return of the Security Deposit to Tenant.

11.

USE:

The Premises shall be used and occupied by Tenant solely for the purposes of general office, lab, warehouse and other related ancillary uses and such use by Tenant shall at all times be in full compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances and governmental regulations affecting the Building and Property and subject to the reasonable rules and regulations of Landlord set forth on Exhibit C. Tenant agrees not to commit or permit any act to be performed on the Premises or any omission to occur which will be in violation of any statute, regulation, or ordinance of any governmental body or which will increase the insurance rates on the Building or which will be in violation of any insurance policy carried on the Building by Landlord. Tenant, at its expense, shall comply with all governmental laws, ordinances, rules and regulations applicable to the use of the Premises and its occupancy and shall promptly comply with all governmental orders, rulings and directives for the correction, prevention and abatement of any violation upon, or in connection with the Premises or Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, including the making of any alterations or improvements to the Premises, all at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Without limiting the scope of the foregoing provisions of this Article 11, Tenant’s use of the Premises shall comply with all applicable requirements of the Minnesota State Fire Code, Minnesota Rules, Chapter 7511, including the 2006 International Fire Code, as amended and as may hereafter be amended from time to time and of any replacement and/or successor law, ordinance, code or rule or regulation, expressly including requirements relating to the types of materials that may be stored in the Premises, the storage containers that may be used, the heights such storage containers may be stacked and the separation that must exist between materials and stacks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible for modifications or additions to the Premises or the Building required for compliance (including the ADA) regarding any legal non-conformities that exist prior to the Commencement Date. Tenant shall not disturb other occupants of the Building by making any undue or unseemly noise or otherwise and shall not do or permit to be done in or about the Premises or Building anything which will be dangerous to life or limb. The employees of Tenant shall not be permitted, during their breaks or otherwise, to congregate or loiter in any of the common areas of the Building, including the Common Areas, in such a manner that would be disruptive of the use of such Common Areas by the other tenants and occupants of the Building or that would obstruct access to, from or within the Building. Tenant shall not, without the prior consent of Landlord, use any apparatus, machinery, device or equipment in or about the Premises that will cause any substantial noise or vibration or any increase in the normal consumption level of electric power. If any of Tenant’s apparatus, machinery, devices or equipment should disturb the enjoyment of any other tenant in the Building, then Tenant shall provide, at its sole cost and expense, adequate insulation or take such other action, including removing such apparatus, machinery, devices or equipment, as may be necessary to eliminate the disturbance. No food or beverage dispensing machines (except those solely servicing Tenant’s on-premises employees) shall be installed by Tenant in the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. In no event shall Tenant (i) permit the storage of any materials, equipment or other personal property outside of the Building or (ii) permit any motor vehicle to be parked outside of the Building overnight.

12.

ACCESS TO PREMISES:

Tenant agrees to permit Landlord and the authorized representatives of Landlord to enter the Premises at all times during usual business hours for the purpose of inspecting, making necessary repairs, conducting environmental testing, and performing work that may be necessary to comply with laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or requirements of any public authority or of the Board of Fire Underwriters or any similar body or that Landlord may deem necessary to prevent waste or deterioration in connection with the Premises. Nothing herein shall imply any duty upon the part of Landlord to do any such work that, under any provision of this Lease, Tenant may be required to perform and the performance thereof by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default in failing to perform the same. The Landlord may, during the progress of work in the Premises, keep and store upon the Premises all necessary materials, tools and equipment. The Landlord shall not in any event be liable for inconvenience, annoyance, disturbance, loss of business, or other damage of Tenant by reason of making repairs or the performance of any work in the Premises, or on account of bringing materials, supplies and equipment into or through the Premises during the course thereof and the obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall not thereby be affected in any manner whatsoever. Tenant agrees that no additional locks will be placed on any of the doors to the Premises without the written consent of Landlord. Tenant shall have the right to install an access reader to the Building and access to the Premises 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks per year of the Lease Term. Tenant shall also have the right to install additional security to the Premises if Tenant determines necessary; provided however that Tenant shall supply Landlord with an access card in the event of emergency and that notwithstanding any other terms in this Lease, Tenant shall repair or replace the latch or door as necessary at the end of the Lease Term.

Landlord reserves the right to enter upon the Premises at any time in the event of an emergency and at reasonable hours to exhibit the Premises to prospective purchasers or others; and to exhibit the Premises to prospective tenants and to display "For Lease" or similar signs on windows or doors in the Premises during the last twelve months of the Term of this Lease, all without hindrance or molestation by Tenant.

EMINENT DOMAIN:

In the event of eminent domain or condemnation proceeding, or private sale in lieu thereof, in respect to the Property during the Term thereof, the following provisions shall apply:

a. If the whole of the Property shall be acquired or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, then the Term of this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date possession shall be taken in such proceeding and all Rent shall be paid up to that date.

b. If any part constituting less than the whole of the Property shall be acquired or condemned as aforesaid, and in the event that such partial taking or condemnation shall materially affect the Premises so as to render the Premises unsuitable for the business of Tenant, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, then the Term of this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date possession shall be taken by the condemning authority and Rent shall be paid to the date of such termination.

In the event of a partial taking or condemnation of the Property which shall not materially affect the Premises so as to render the Premises unsuitable for the business of Tenant, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect but with a proportionate abatement of the Base Rent and Additional Rent based on the portion, if any, of the Premises taken. Landlord reserves the right, at its option, to restore the Building and the Premises to substantially the same condition as they were prior to such condemnation. In such event, Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant, within thirty (30) days following the date possession shall be taken by the condemning authority, of Landlord's intention to restore. Upon Landlord's notice of election to restore, Landlord shall commence restoration and shall restore the Building and the Premises with reasonable promptness, subject to delays beyond Landlord's control and delays in the making of condemnation or sale proceeds adjustment by Landlord; and Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease except as herein provided. Upon completion of such restoration, the Rent shall be adjusted based upon the portion, if any, of the Premises restored.

c. In the event of any condemnation or taking as aforesaid, whether whole or partial, Tenant shall not be entitled to any part of the award paid for such condemnation and Landlord is to receive the full amount of such award, Tenant hereby expressly waiving any right to claim to any part thereof, provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in or require Tenant to assign to Landlord any separate award made to Tenant for its relocation expenses, the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant, the unamortized value of improvements made or paid for by Tenant, or the interruption of or damage to Tenant's business. Tenant agrees that any claims made by Tenant for condemnation awards shall not in any way diminish the award due to Landlord for its interest in the Premises.

d. Although all damages in the event of any condemnation shall belong to Landlord whether such damages are awarded as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or to the fee of the Premises, Tenant shall have the right to claim and recover from the condemning authority, but not from Landlord, such compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant in Tenant's own right on account of any and all damage to Tenant's business by reason of the condemnation and for or on account of any cost or loss to which Tenant might be put in removing Tenant's merchandise, furniture, fixtures, leasehold improvements and equipment. However, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or make any claim with the condemning authority for the loss of its leasehold estate, any unexpired term or loss of any possible renewal or extension of said Lease, or loss of any possible value of said lease, any unexpired term, renewal or extension of said Lease.

14.

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION:

In the event of any damage or destruction to the Property by fire or any other cause during the Term hereof, the following provisions shall apply:

a. 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 thirty percent (30%) of the replacement value of the Building (exclusive of foundations) just prior to the occurrence of the damage, then Landlord may, no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the damage, give Tenant written notice of Landlord's election to terminate this Lease.

b. If the cost of restoration as estimated by Landlord shall amount to less than thirty percent (30%) of said replacement value of the Building, or if, despite the cost, Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall restore the Building and the Premises 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. Landlord shall not be responsible for restoring or repairing leasehold improvements of Tenant.

c. In the event of either of the elections to terminate, this Lease shall be deemed to terminate on the date of the receipt of the notice of election and all Rent shall be paid up to that date. Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired Term of this Lease.

d. In any case where damage to the Building shall materially affect the Premises so as to render them unsuitable in whole or in part for the purposes for which they are demised hereunder, then, unless such destruction was wholly or partially caused by the negligence or breach of the terms of this Lease by Tenant, its employees, contractors or licensees, a portion of the Base Rent and Additional Rent, based upon the amount of the extent to which the Premises are rendered unsuitable, shall be abated until repaired or restored. If the destruction or damage was wholly or partially caused by negligence or breach of the terms of this Lease by Tenant as aforesaid and if Landlord shall elect to rebuild, the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall not xxxxx and Tenant shall remain liable for the same.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 14 to the contrary, Landlord shall only be obligated to restore the Premises to the extent of the insurance proceeds actually received, but if the insurance proceeds actually received do not permit Landlord to restore the Premises, Landlord shall so notify Tenant and either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by written notice given within sixty (60) days after Landlord's notice. If Landlord restores the Premises or the Building in accordance with the provisions of this Article, then Tenant shall not have any right to terminate this Lease because of such damage.

15.

CASUALTY INSURANCE:

a. Landlord shall at all times during the Term of this Lease, at its expense, maintain a policy or policies of insurance with premiums paid in advance issued by an insurance company licensed to do business in the State of Minnesota insuring the Building against loss or damage by fire, explosion or other insurable hazards and contingencies for the full insurable value, provided that Landlord shall not be obligated to insure any furniture, equipment, machinery, goods, supplies or other contents not covered by this Lease which Tenant may bring upon the Premises or any additional improvements which Tenant may construct or install on the Premises. Tenant shall at all times during the Term of this Lease, at its expense, maintain a policy or policies of insurance with premiums paid in advance issued by an insurance company licensed to do business in the State of Minnesota insuring against loss or damage by fire, explosion or other insurable hazards and contingencies for the full insurable value of Tenant’s improvements to the Premises and Tenant’s personal property.

b. Tenant shall not carry any stock of goods or do anything in or about the Premises that will in any way impair or invalidate the obligation of the insurer under any policy of insurance required by this Lease.

c. Landlord hereby waives and releases all claims, liabilities and causes of action against Tenant and its agents, servants and employees for loss or damage to, or destruction of, the Property or any portion thereof, including the buildings and other improvements situated thereon, resulting from fire, explosion and other perils included in standard extended coverage insurance, whether caused by the negligence of any of said persons or otherwise. Likewise, Tenant hereby waives and releases all claims, liabilities and causes of action against Landlord and its agents, servants and employees for loss or damage to, or destruction of, any of the improvements, fixtures, equipment, supplies, merchandise and other property, whether that of Tenant or of others, upon or about the Property resulting from fire, explosion or the other perils included in standard extended coverage insurance, whether caused by the negligence of any of said persons or otherwise. The waiver shall remain in force whether or not Tenant's insurer shall consent thereto.

d. In the event that the use of the Premises by Tenant increases the premium rate for insurance carried by Landlord on the improvements of which the Premises are a part, Tenant shall pay Landlord, upon demand, the amount of such premium increase. If Tenant installs any electrical equipment that overloads the power lines to the building or its wiring, Tenant shall, at its own expense, make whatever changes are necessary to comply with the requirements of the insurance underwriter, insurance rating bureau and governmental authorities having jurisdiction.

16.

PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE:

Tenant shall during the Term hereof keep in full force and effect at its expense a policy or policies of commercial general liability insurance with respect to the Premises and the business of Tenant, on terms with companies licensed to do business in the State of Minnesota, in which Landlord and Landlord’s designees are named as additional insureds under prudent limits of liability not less than: $1,000,000 for injury/death to any one person; $2,000,000 for injury/death to more than one person, and $1,000,000 with respect to damage to property. Such policy(ies) shall: (i) provide that such policies are primary and Landlord’s policy(ies) are noncontributing; (ii) if available, include an endorsement that requires at least thirty (30) days prior written notice must be given to Landlord prior to cancellation, expiration or material adverse changes to such policy(ies). Tenant shall furnish a certificate of insurance to Landlord at the time this Lease is executed evidencing that such coverage is in full force and effect.

17.

DEFAULT OF TENANT:

a. In the event of any failure of Tenant to pay any Rent due hereunder on the date the same shall be due, or any failure to perform any other of the terms, conditions or covenants of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant for more than twenty (20) days after written notice of such failure shall have been given to Tenant (or if the default cannot be reasonably cured within said thirty (30) day period and Tenant fails promptly to commence with due diligence and dispatch the curing of such default within said thirty (30) day period), or if Tenant or an agent of Tenant shall falsify any report required to be furnished to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease, or if Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease shall become bankrupt or insolvent, or file any debtor proceedings or any person shall take or have against Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease in any court pursuant to any statute either of the United States or of any state a petition of bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or a portion of Tenant's or any such guarantor's property, or if Tenant or any such guarantor makes an assignment for the benefit or creditors, or petitions for or enters into an arrangement, or if Tenant shall abandon the Premises or suffer this Lease to be taken under any writ of execution, then in any such event Tenant shall be in default hereunder, and Landlord, in addition to other rights or remedies it may have, shall have the immediate right of re-entry and may remove all persons and property from the Premises and such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account of Tenant, all without service of notice or resort to legal process and without being guilty of trespass, or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby.

b. Should Landlord elect to re-enter the Premises, as herein provided, or should it take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, it may either terminate this Lease or it may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, make such alterations and repairs as may be necessary in order to relet the Premises, and relet the Premises or any part thereof upon such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term of this Lease) and at such rental and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable. Upon each such subletting all rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting, including brokerage fees and reasonable attorney's fees and costs of such alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of the Rent due and unpaid payment of future Rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. If such rentals received from such reletting during any month be less than that to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant, upon demand, shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord. No such re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time after such re-entry and reletting elect to terminate this Lease for any such breach, in addition to any other remedies it may have, it may recover from Tenant all damages it may incur by reason of such breach, including the cost of recovering the Premises, reasonable attorney's fees, and including the worth at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of the amount of rental and charges equivalent to Rent reserved in this Lease for the remainder of the stated term, minus the amount of rental loss which Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, all of which amounts shall be immediately due and payable from Tenant to Landlord. Landlord shall also be entitled to any other amounts necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to comply with the requirements of this Lease.

c. Landlord may, at its option, instead of exercising any other rights or remedies available to it in this Lease or otherwise by law, statute or equity, spend such money as is reasonably necessary to cure any default of Tenant herein and the amount so spent, and costs incurred, including reasonable attorney's fees in curing such default, shall be paid by Tenant, as Additional Rent, upon demand.

d. In the event suit shall be brought for recovery of possession of the Premises, for the recovery of Rent of any other amount due under the provisions of this Lease, or because of the breach of any other covenant herein contained on the part of Tenant to be kept or performed, and a breach shall be established, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all expenses incurred therefore, including a reasonable attorney's fee, together with interest on all such expenses at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date of such breach of the covenants of this Lease.

f. No remedy herein or elsewhere in this Lease or otherwise by law, statute or equity, conferred upon or reserved to Landlord or Tenant shall be exclusive of any other remedy, but shall be cumulative, and may be exercised from time to time and as often as the occasion may arise.

18.

DEFAULT OF LANDLORD:

The failure by Landlord to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions, or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Landlord, where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by Tenant to Landlord, shall be deemed to be a default by Landlord under this Lease; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if Landlord commences such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion, provided that the default shall actually be cured within a reasonable period after notice. In the event of a default by Landlord beyond applicable cure periods, Tenant shall have the right, at its election, to either (a) xxx for all actual (but not consequential, speculative or punitive) damages sustained by reason of the default; or (b) perform the obligations described in the notice in which case Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost of the performance of such obligations within ten (10) business days after Tenant's submission of an invoice therefor. If Tenant elects to proceed under clause (b) above, then the Landlord's default shall be deemed to have been cured when Tenant's expense has been reimbursed in full. In the event Tenant commences a suit for damages sustained by reason of a Landlord Default and prevails in such suit and obtains a final, non-appealable judgment with respect to such suit, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for all reasonable costs including attorney's fees.

19.

INDEMNITY & HOLD HARMLESS:

Both Tenant and Landlord shall indemnify, protect, defend (at Landlord's request and with counsel approved by Landlord) and hold each other and both parties’ affiliates and each of their respective partners, directors, officers, shareholders and employees, harmless from and against every demand, claim, cause of action, judgment, costs and expense, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements of counsel, whether suit is initiated or not, and all loss and damage arising from any injury, loss or damage to the person or property of Tenant, any other tenant in the Property or to any other person rightfully in the Property, (i) occurring in or about the Premises, or (ii) caused by the negligence or misconduct of Tenant or Landlord, Tenant's affiliates or any of their respective employees, representatives, agents or contractors, or (iii) resulting from the violation of any legal requirements or the provisions of this Lease by Tenant, Tenant's affiliates or any of their respective employees, representatives, agents or contractors. Tenant’s and Landlord’s indemnity obligations under this Article shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

If any mechanic's lien is filed against any part of the Property for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant, such mechanic's lien shall be discharged by Tenant within ten (10) days thereafter, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, by the payment thereof or by making any deposit required by law or by posting a bond with such surety, in such amount and in such form as Landlord deems proper. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of any mechanic's lien or other lien filed against the Property or any part thereof by a contractor or subcontractor of Tenant or otherwise by reason of work claimed to have been done for or materials claimed to have been furnished to Tenant. If Tenant fails to remove such lien or post such bond within the ten (10) day period following the filing thereof, Landlord may, at its sole discretion and without waiving its rights and remedies based on such breach by Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any of its obligations, cause such lien to be released by any means it shall deem proper, including payment in satisfaction of the claim giving rise to such lien. Tenant shall, in such event, pay to Landlord at once, upon notice by Landlord, any sum paid by Landlord to remove such lien including reasonable attorney’s fees, together with interest at the rate of 12% from the date of such payment by Landlord. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices permitted or required by applicable law, or that Landlord shall deem proper for the protection of Landlord, the Premises, the Property and any other party having an interest therein, from liens. All material suppliers, contractors, artisans, mechanics, laborers and other parties contracting with Tenant for the furnishing of any labor, services, materials, supplies or equipment with respect to any portion of the Premises are hereby charged with notice that they must look solely to Tenant for payment of the same and Tenant's purchase orders, contracts and subcontracts in connection therewith must clearly state this requirement.

20.

NON-LIABILITY OF LANDLORD; RIGHTS RESERVED:

Landlord will not be liable for any damage or injury to the person, business (or any loss of income therefrom), inventory, furnishings, equipment or other property of Tenant, Tenant’s employees, invitees, customers or any other person in or about the Premises or Building, whether such damage or injury to the person or property is caused by or results from: (i) fire, steam, electricity, water, gas, explosions, falling plaster, snow or rain; (ii) the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures or any other cause; (iii) conditions arising in or about the Premises or Building, or from other sources or places; (iv) any curtailment or interruption in utility services; or (v) any act or omission of any other tenant of the Building or persons in the Property, occupants of adjacent property, of the buildings, or the public or caused by operations in construction of any private, public or quasi-public work. The provisions of this Article will not exempt Landlord from liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, in no event shall Landlord be liable for any consequential damages. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any damages as the result of any latent defect in the Premises. All property of Tenant kept or stored on the Premises shall be so kept or stored at the risk of Tenant only and Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from any claims arising out of damage to the same, including subrogation claims by Tenant's insurance carrier.

Landlord shall have the following rights, exercisable without liability by Landlord to Tenant: (a) to change the Building’s name and/or street address; (b) to install, affix and maintain any and all signs on the exterior and in the interior of the Building; (c) to change the leasable areas and common areas of the Building and/or construct additional buildings on the land on which the Building is located. Landlord also reserves all airspace rights above, below and to all sides of the Premises; and (d) to grant anyone the exclusive right to conduct any business or render any service in or to the Building, so long as it does not exclude Tenant’s permitted use of the Premises.

21.

SUBORDINATION, ESTOPPEL AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

This Lease shall be subordinated to any mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, ground leases, master leases or other encumbrances (collectively, “Encumbrances”) that may now exist or that may hereafter be placed upon the Property, or any part thereof, and to any and all advances made thereunder, and to the interest upon the indebtedness evidenced by such Encumbrances, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of any of the Encumbrances. In the event of execution by Landlord after the date of this Lease of any such Encumbrance, renewal, modification, consolidation, replacement or extension, Tenant agrees, within ten (10) days of its receipt, to execute and return any commercially reasonable subordination agreement required by the holder of such Encumbrance, which agreement shall provide that:

a. Such holder shall not disturb the possession and other rights of Tenant under this Lease so long as Tenant is not in default hereunder;

b. In the event of acquisition of title to the Premises by such holder, such holder shall accept Tenant as tenant of the Premises under the terms and conditions of this Lease and shall perform all the obligations of Landlord hereunder; and

c. In such event Tenant shall recognize such holder as landlord hereunder.

Tenant shall, upon receipt of a request from Landlord therefore, within ten (10) days after receipt of such request, execute and deliver to Landlord or to any proposed holder of an Encumbrance, an estoppel certificate in recordable form, certifying that this Lease is in full force and effect, that there are no offsets against Rent nor defenses to Tenant's performance under this Lease, or setting forth any such offsets or defenses claimed by Tenant, as the case may be, and such other terms as reasonably requested by Landlord. In the event that Tenant fails to execute and return the estoppel certificate within such ten (10) day period, the holder of such Encumbrance shall be entitled to rely, as against the Tenant, that (i) this Lease is in full force and effect, without amendment except as specified by the Landlord, (ii) Tenant has no offsets against Rent nor any defenses to Tenant’s performance under this Lease, (iii) Tenant has no right to any offset or defenses to the payment of Rent, and (iv) Tenant has not paid any Rent under this Lease more than one month in advance.

Tenant agrees to give prompt written notice to the holder of each Encumbrance who has given Tenant written notice of its address of any default by Landlord under this Lease which would entitle Tenant to terminate or cancel this Lease or xxxxx the Rent payable hereunder, and agrees that, notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, no Rent abatement or notice of termination of this Lease by Tenant shall be effective unless all such notified holders of Encumbrances have received said notice and have failed for thirty (30) days after receipt thereof to cure Landlord's default, or if the default cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, have failed to commence and to diligently pursue the cure of Landlord's default which gave rise to such right of termination or abatement.

Unless Tenant’s current financial statements are readily available to the public (e.g., via internet access), Tenant agrees to provide Landlord (but no more than twice in any calendar year), within ten (10) days of request, the then most current financial statements of Tenant and any guarantors of this Lease Agreement, which shall be certified by Tenant, and if available, shall be audited and certified by a certified public accountant. Landlord shall keep such financial statements confidential, except Landlord shall, in confidence, be entitled to disclose such financial statements to existing or prospective mortgagees or purchasers of the Building.

22.

ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLETTING:

a. Tenant Assignment. Tenant agrees not to assign, sublet, license, mortgage or encumber this Lease Agreement, the Premises, or any part thereof, whether by voluntary act, operation of law, or otherwise, without the specific prior written consent of Landlord in each instance and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Tenant is a corporation, partnership or other legal entity, transfer of a controlling interest of Tenant shall be considered an assignment of this Lease Agreement for purposes of this Article. Consent by Landlord in one such instance shall not be a waiver of Landlord's rights under this Article as to requiring consent for any subsequent instance. Any purported assignment, subletting, licensing, mortgaging or other transfer of this Lease Agreement or the Premises hereunder by Tenant that does not comply with the provisions of this Article 21 shall be void. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant may, without the consent of Landlord, assign this Lease Agreement or sublet all or any part of the Premises to an Affiliate of Tenant, or if Tenant is acquired pursuant to a merger or acquisition, or sells substantially all of the assets of its business conducted at the Premises. As used herein, an “Affiliate” of Tenant shall be deemed to be any entity which either controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, with “control” meaning the power to direct the management and policies, directly or indirectly, through the ownership of voting capital stock or other ownership interest. In connection with any assignment of this Lease Agreement or subletting of the Premises made or requested by Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord (i) a processing fee of $500.00 and (ii) all out-of-pocket costs incurred by Landlord, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. In the event Tenant desires to sublet a part or all of the Premises, or assign this Lease Agreement, including to an Affiliate of Tenant, Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the proposed subletting or assignment, which notice shall state the name of the proposed subtenant or assignee and the terms of any sublease or assignment documents and shall include copies of financial statements or other relevant financial information of the proposed subtenant or assignee. Any rents and other consideration received by Tenant from an assignment of this Lease Agreement or subletting of the Premises which exceed the Rent then payable by Tenant under this Lease Agreement shall be immediately paid by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent hereunder. At Landlord’s option following a default by Tenant under this Lease Agreement, any and all payments by the subtenant with respect to the sublease shall be paid directly to Landlord. In any event no assignment or subletting, including to an Affiliate of Tenant, shall release Tenant of its obligation to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder for the Term of this Lease Agreement. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof. At Landlord's option and with the exception of an assignment or subletting to an Affiliate of Tenant, Landlord may terminate this Lease Agreement in lieu of giving its consent to any proposed assignment of this Lease Agreement or subletting of all of the Premises (which termination may be contingent upon the execution of a new lease with the proposed assignee or subtenant).

b. Landlord Assignment. Landlord's right to assign this Lease Agreement is and shall remain unqualified upon any sale or transfer of the Building and, provided the purchaser succeeds to the interests of Landlord under this Lease Agreement, Landlord shall thereupon be entirely freed of all obligations of the Landlord's hereunder and shall not be subject to any liability resulting from any act or omission or event occurring after such conveyance.

23.

ATTORNMENT:

In the event of any sale, transfer or assignment of Landlord's interest in the Property, or the Building in which the Premises are located, or this Lease, or if the Property comes into custody or possession of a mortgagee or any other party whether because of a mortgage foreclosure, or otherwise, Tenant shall attorn to such assignee or other party and recognize such party as Landlord hereunder; provided, however Tenant's peaceable possession will not be disturbed so long as Tenant faithfully performs its obligations under this Lease. Tenant shall execute, on demand, any attornment agreement required by any such party to be executed, containing such provisions as such party may require.

24.

NOVATION IN THE EVENT OF SALE:

In the event of the sale of the Premises, Landlord shall be and hereby is relieved of all of the covenants and obligations created hereby accruing from and after the date of sale, and such sale shall result automatically in the purchaser assuming and agreeing to carry out all the covenants and obligations of Landlord herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article, Landlord, in the event of a sale of the Premises, shall cause to be included in the agreement of sale and purchase a covenant whereby the purchaser of the Premises assumes and agree to carry out all of the covenants and obligations of Landlord herein.

The Tenant agrees at any time and from time to time upon not less than ten (10) days prior written request by Landlord to execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or as modified and stating the modifications, and the dates to which Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges have been paid in advance, if any, and such other terms as Landlord shall reasonably require, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant to this paragraph may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of the fee or mortgagee, or assignee of any mortgage of the Premises. In the event that Tenant fails to execute and return such statement within such ten (10) day period, the requesting party shall be entitled to rely, as against the Tenant, that: (i) this Lease is in full force and effect, without amendment except as specified by the Landlord, (ii) Tenant has no offsets against Rent nor any defenses to Tenant’s performance under this Lease, (iii) Tenant has no right to any offset or defenses to the payment of Rent, and (iv) Tenant has not paid any Rent under this Lease more than one month in advance.

25.

SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS:

The terms, covenants and conditions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

26.

REMOVAL OF FIXTURES:

Notwithstanding anything contained in Article 8, Article 29, or elsewhere in this Lease, if Landlord requests, Tenant will promptly remove at the sole cost and expense of Tenant, all fixtures, equipment and Alterations (as defined in Article 8) made by Tenant simultaneously with vacating the Premises and Tenant will promptly repair all damage and restore said Premises to the condition that existed immediately prior to said fixtures, equipment and Alterations having been made, all at the sole cost and expense of Tenant, including the removal of any or all data and voice cabling or other wiring, all at Tenant’s sole cost.

27.

QUIET ENJOYMENT:

Landlord warrants that it has full right to execute and to perform this Lease and to grant the estate demised, and that Tenant, upon payment of the Rent and other amounts due and the performance of all the terms, conditions, covenants and agreements on Tenant's part to be observed and performed under this Lease, may peaceably and quietly enjoy the Premises for the business uses permitted hereunder, subject, nevertheless, to the terms and conditions of this Lease.

28.

RECORDING:

Tenant shall not record this Lease without the written consent of Landlord. However, upon the request of either party hereto, the other party shall join in the execution of a Memorandum Lease for the purposes of recordation. Said Memorandum Lease shall describe the parties, the Premises and the Term of the Lease and shall incorporate this Lease by reference.

29.

OVERDUE PAYMENTS:

All monies due under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord shall be due on demand, unless otherwise specified and if not paid when due, shall result in the imposition of a service charge for such late payment in the amount of five percent (5%) of the amount due, provided, however, Landlord will waive one monthly late payment service charge per year provided such payment is received by the fifteenth (15th) day of said month. All unpaid or delinquent Rent and Tenant obligations of any kind shall accrue interest at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2%) percentage per month from and after the due date.

30.

SURRENDER:

On the Expiration Date or upon the termination hereof upon a day other than the Expiration Date, Tenant shall peaceably surrender the Premises broom-clean in good order, condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear only excepted, and subject to the terms and conditions of Exhibit G. On or before the last day of the Term or the sooner termination thereof, Tenant shall at its expense remove all of its furnishings, equipment and other personal property from the Premises, repairing any damage caused thereby, and any property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned. At the election of Landlord and if Tenant is so notified in writing at the time Landlord approves any Alterations, all Alterations (as defined in Article 8) and fixtures, other than Tenant's trade fixtures, which have been made or installed by either Landlord or Tenant upon the Premises, shall at the end of the Term or the earlier termination thereof, at Landlord’s option (i) remain as Landlord's property and shall be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof, or (ii) shall be removed from the Premises, in which event Tenant shall remove the same at its sole cost and expense and repair any damage caused thereby. The Tenant Improvements shall not be required to be restored at the Expiration Date or upon termination hereof. If the Premises are not vacated and surrendered at the end of the Term or the sooner termination thereof as required by this Article 29, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against any and all loss, cost, damage, liability and expense resulting from delay by Tenant in so vacating and surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay, which indemnity obligation shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease Agreement. Tenant shall promptly surrender all keys for the Premises to Landlord and shall inform Landlord of any combinations to any locks and/or safes on the Premises.

31.

END OF TERM AND HOLDING OVER:

Tenant will, at the expiration of this Lease Agreement, whether by lapse of time or termination, vacate and surrender immediate possession of the Premises to Landlord. If Tenant fails to vacate and surrender possession of the Premises, the Landlord may, at its option, serve written notice upon Tenant that such holdover constitutes the creation of a month-to-month tenancy. If Landlord does not give said notice, Tenant's holdover shall create a tenancy at sufferance. In any event, the tenancy shall be upon the terms and conditions of this Lease Agreement, except that the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be 150% of the Base Rent and Additional Rent Tenant was obligated to pay Landlord under this Lease Agreement immediately prior to expiration (in the case of tenancy at sufferance such Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be prorated on the basis of a 365 day year for each day Tenant remains in possession); excepting further that in the case of a tenancy at sufferance, no notices shall be required prior to commencement of any legal action to regain possession of the Premises. The provisions of this Article shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of any right of re-entry as otherwise available to Landlord; nor shall receipt of any Rent or any other act in apparent affirmance of the tenancy operate as a waiver of the right to terminate this Lease Agreement for a breach by Tenant hereof. If Tenant determines to extend or renew the Term of this Lease, whether by new lease agreement or amendment to this Lease, Landlord shall have no obligation to pay commissions or fees of any kind to any brokers that Tenant may engage regarding such new lease term. Tenant hereby acknowledges that any claim for brokerage commissions or fees in connection with a new term of this Lease shall be paid in full by Tenant.

32.

CONSENTS BY LANDLORD, TENANT FINANCING:

Whenever provision is made under this Lease for Tenant securing the consent or approval by Landlord, such consent or approval shall only be in writing.

In the event that Tenant requires Landlord to sign any agreement related to third-party financing obtained by Tenant, Tenant shall pay a fee to Landlord equal to $500 or the total hourly charges of any professional necessary to review such agreement, whichever is less. Further, Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord for any costs or expenses resulting from such agreement.

33.

NOTICES:

Any notice required or permitted under this Lease shall be in writing and deemed sufficiently given or secured if sent by registered or certified return receipt mail or registered overnight courier service to Tenant at the address of the Premises provided in Definitions on Page 1 of this Lease and to Landlord at the address as provided in Article 4 of this Lease, and either party may by like written notice at any time designate a different address to which notices shall subsequently be sent or Rent to be paid.

34.

RULES AND REGULATIONS:

Tenant shall observe and comply with the rules and regulations set forth on Exhibit C or as Landlord may reasonably promulgate from time to time, for the safety, care and cleanliness of the Premises, Building, Common Areas and Property.

INTENT OF PARTIES:

Except as otherwise provided herein, Tenant covenants and agrees that if it shall at any time fail to pay any costs or expenses, or fail to take out, pay for, maintain or deliver any of the insurance policies, or fail to make any other payment or perform any other act on its part to be made or performed as required in this Lease, then Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, and without notice to or demand upon Tenant and without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant contained in this Lease, pay any such cost or expense, effect any such insurance coverage and pay premiums therefore, and may make any other payment or perform any other act on the part of Tenant to be made and performed as provided in this Lease, in such manner and to such extent as Landlord may deem desirable, and in exercising any such right, to also pay all necessary and incidental costs and expenses, employ counsel and incur and pay reasonable attorneys' fees. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary and incidental costs and expenses in connection with the performance of any such act by Landlord, together with interest thereon at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum from the date of making of such expenditure by Landlord, shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder, and shall be payable to Landlord on demand. Tenant covenants to pay any such sum or sums with interest as aforesaid and Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies in the event of the non-payment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of the Base Rent or Additional Rent due under this Lease.

36.

GENERAL:

a. The Lease does not create the relationship of principal and agent or of partnership or of joint venture or of any association between Landlord and Tenant, the sole relationship between the parties hereto being that of landlord and tenant.

b. No waiver of any default of Tenant hereunder shall be implied from any omission by Landlord to take any action on account of such default if such default persists or is repeated, and no express waiver shall affect any default other than the default specified in the express waiver and that only for the time and to the extent therein stated. One or more waivers by Landlord shall not then be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the same covenant, term or condition. The consent to or approval by Landlord of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval shall not waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent similar act by Tenant. No action required or permitted to be taken by or on behalf of Landlord under the terms or provisions of this Lease shall be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant's possession of the Premises. All preliminary negotiations are merged into and incorporated in this Lease. The laws of the State of Minnesota shall govern the validity, performance and enforcement of this Lease.

c. This Lease and the exhibits, attached hereto and forming a part hereof, constitute the entire agreement between Landlord and Tenant affecting the Premises and there are no other agreements, either oral or written, between them other than as herein set forth. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Lease shall be binding upon Landlord or Tenant unless reduced to writing and executed in the same form and manner in which this Lease is executed. If Tenant is a legal entity, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of said entity represents and warrants that s/he is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of said entity in accordance with duly adopted resolutions of the governing body of said entity or in accordance with the organizational documents of said entity, and that this Lease is binding upon said entity in accordance with its terms.

d. If any agreement, covenant or condition of this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such agreement, covenant or condition to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each agreement, covenant or condition of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

e. The obligations of Landlord under this Lease do not constitute the personal obligations of the individual partners, members, trustees, shareholders, directors or officers of Landlord or its constituent members or partners. If Landlord shall fail to perform any covenant, term or condition of this Lease required of Landlord, Tenant shall be required to deliver to Landlord written notice of the same. If, as a consequence of such default, Tenant shall recover a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment shall be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon execution of such judgment and levied thereon against the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Property and out of Rent or other income from the Property receivable by Landlord, or out of consideration received by Landlord from the sale or other disposition of all or any part of Landlord’s right, title or interest in the Property, and no action for any deficiency may be sought or obtained by Tenant.

f. Tenant represents to Landlord, and Landlord represents to Tenant, that the representing party is not (and such party is not engaged in this transaction on behalf of) a person or entity with which either party is prohibited from doing business pursuant to any law, regulation or executive order pertaining to national security (“Anti-Terrorism Laws”) and; such party has not violated and, to the best of such party’s knowledge it is not under investigation for, the violation of any Anti-Terrorism Laws pertaining to money laundering. “Anti-Terrorism Laws”, as referenced above, shall specifically include, but shall not be limited to, the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Pub. L. No. 107-56 (aka, the USA Patriot Act); Executive Order 13224; the Bank Secrecy Act, 31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et. Seq.; the Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. Section 1 et. Seq.; the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. Section 1701 et. Seq.; sanctions and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), as well as laws related to the prevention and detection of money laundering in 18 U.S.C. Sections 1956 and 1957.

Tenant will not take any remedial action in response to the presence of any Hazardous Materials in, on, under or about the Property, nor enter into any settlement agreement, consent decree or other compromise with respect to any Claims (as defined below) relating to or in any way connected with the Property, without first notifying Landlord of Tenant's intention to do so and affording Landlord reasonable opportunity to investigate, appear, intervene or otherwise appropriately assert and protect Landlord's interest in the Property.

Subject to the provisions of Article 12 above, including but not limited to the notice and confidentiality provisions, Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, by itself or by its agent, to enter upon the Property for purposes of inspecting the compliance thereof, and the operations conducted thereon, with Hazardous Materials Laws, and to take such samples or perform such intrusive testing, or “Phase II” investigation, as Landlord may, in its discretion, determine; provided that any such entry, or such intrusive testing, shall not unreasonably interfere with the business operations of Tenant on the Property. Tenant shall afford Landlord, or its agent, access to Tenant’s books and records evidencing compliance with Hazardous Materials Laws, including, but not limited to, access to appropriate licenses and permits, as well as manifests or other records relative to the handling, treatment, storage, shipment, or disposal of Hazardous Materials, as required under applicable Hazardous Materials Laws. The costs incurred in exercising Landlord’s rights under this Article 37 C shall be paid by Landlord unless such entry and/or testing by Landlord reveals either a violation of Hazardous Materials Laws or the presence of Hazardous Materials requiring remediation, in either which case and in addition to being responsible for all of the costs of remedying such violation and/or remediating such Hazardous Materials, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the costs incurred by Landlord under this Article 37 C within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefore.

d. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that all reporting and warning obligations required under Hazardous Materials Laws resulting from or in any way relating to Tenant's use of the Property or its operations therein are Tenant’s sole responsibility, regardless whether such Hazardous Materials Laws permit or require Landlord to report or warn.

e. With respect to all Hazardous Materials brought unto the Property by Tenant, the following specific rules shall govern:

Tenant shall at all times be in full compliance with all Hazardous Materials Laws. Tenant shall advise Landlord prior to the generation or handling of Hazardous Materials (other than small quantities of office cleaning or other office supplies as are customarily used in the ordinary course of a general office use). Upon request by Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all contracts, programs, management plans or certifications regarding the generation, storage, removal or disposal of Hazardous Materials which are required in order for Tenant to be in compliance with the Hazardous Materials Laws.
