This Lease shall not be assignable by operation of law. If Tenant is a
corporation, then any transfer of this Lease from Tenant by merger,

herein, Landlord shall not be bound from afterwards refusing to consent to any
further assignment.

shall be optional with the Landlord or Tenant to terminate this Lease. After the
happening of any such contingency, the Tenant shall give the Landlord or
Landlord's agent immediate written notice thereof. Landlord shall have no more
than 30 days after date of such notification to notify the Tenant in writing of
Landlord's intentions to repair or rebuild said premises, or the part so damaged
as aforesaid, and if Landlord elects to repair or rebuild said premises,
Landlord shall prosecute the work of such repairing or rebuilding without
unnecessary delay and during such period, the rent of said premises shall be
abated in the same ratio that the portion of the premises rendered for the time
being unfit for occupancy shall bear to the whole of the leased premises. If the
Landlord shall fail to give notice aforesaid, and if the remises have been
rendered untenantable in whole or in substantial part, Tenant shall have the
right to declare this lease terminated by written notice served upon the
Landlord or Landlord's agent.
In the event the building in which the premises hereby leased are located

real property of Landlord. If any of Tenant's personal property shall be
assessed with Landlord's real property, Tenant shall pay Landlord taxes
attributable to Tenant within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice from
Landlord setting forth the taxes applicable to Tenant's property, and if Tenant
fails to do so, Landlord may make such payment and the amount so paid, together
with interest thereon from the date paid shall be additional rent and shall be
due and payable to
7
Landlord on the next succeeding date on which a base rental installment is due.

restorative work at Tenant's expense.
20. ALTERATIONS:
Tenant shall not make any material alterations, additions or
improvements, including painting, in said premises or in common areas
without the prior consent of Landlord in writing, and all alterations, additions
and improvements which shall be made shall be at the sole cost and expense of
Tenant, and shall become the property of the Landlord and shall remain in and be
surrendered with the premises as a part thereof at the termination of this
Lease, without disturbance, molestation or injury. If the Tenant shall perform
work with the consent of the Landlord as aforesaid, Tenant agrees to comply with
all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of the City of Poulsbo, Kitsap
County, or any other authorized public authority. The Tenant further agrees to
save the Landlord free and harmless from damage, loss or expense arising out of
the said work. Tenant agrees that Landlord has the right, though not the duty,
to make alterations to the premises and to the building in which the premises
are situated, and Landlord shall not be liable for any damage which Tenant might
suffer by reason of such undertaking. See Addendum B for Tenant improvement
provisions.
21. DEFAULT AND RE-ENTRY:
If Tenant fails to keep or perform any covenants and agreements herein
contained, then the same shall constitute a breach hereof, and if Tenant has not
remedied such breach within three (3) business days after written notice thereof
with respect to monetary obligations of Tenant, and within ten (10) calendar
days after written notice with respect to nonmonetary obligations of Tenant,
then Landlord may, at its option, without further notice or demand:
(a) Cure such breach for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and such
expense shall be deemed additional rent due on the first of the following month;
or
(b) re-enter the premises, remove all persons therefrom, take possession of
the premises and remove all equipment, fixtures and personal property therein at
Tenant's risk and expense, and (1) terminate this lease, or (2) without
terminating the lease or in any way affecting the rights and remedies of
Landlord or the obligations of Tenant, relet the whole or any part of the
premises, as agent for Tenant, upon such terms and conditions and for such term
as Landlord may deem advisable, in which event the rents received shall first be
applied to the costs and expenses of reletting, including necessary repairs and
removal of Tenant's improvements and any real estate commission incurred, the
balance of such rent shall be applied toward payment of all sums due or to
become due to Landlord hereunder, and Tenant shall pay monthly to Landlord any
deficiency; however, Landlord shall not be required to pay any excess to Tenant.
For purposes of determining
8
such deficiency, monthly percentage rent shall be included by taking the average
percentage rent during the 12 months preceding the default or breach by Tenant.
The failure of Landlord to terminate this lease at any time for the breach
of any of the terms hereof shall be deemed only an indulgence by Landlord, and
shall not be construed to be a waiver of rights of Landlord as to any continued
or subsequent breach. All past due amounts owing to Landlord under this lease
including rent shall be assessed interest at an annual percentage rate of
eighteen percent (18%) from the date due or date of invoice, whichever is
earlier, until paid, and shall be in addition to the late charge referenced in
paragraph 4 of this lease.
The above remedies are cumulative and in addition to any other remedies
now or hereinafter allowed by law or elsewhere provided in this lease.
22. COSTS AND ATTORNEYS FEES:
If by reason of any default on the part of the Tenant it becomes
necessary for the Landlord to employ an attorney or in case Landlord shall bring
suit to recover any rent due hereunder, or for breach of any provision of this
Lease or to recover possession of the leased premises, or if Tenant shall bring
any action for any relief against Landlord, declaratory or otherwise, arising
out of this Lease, the prevailing party shall have and recover against the other
party in addition to the cost allowed by law, such sum as the court may adjudge
to be a reasonable attorney's fee. In the event the Tenant defaults in the
payment of rental, the Tenant agrees to pay for the cost of any collection
agency, or attorney, employed by the Landlord.
23. REMOVAL OF PROPERTY:
Upon court order or abandonment, in the event of any entry in or taking
possession of, the leased premises, the Landlord shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to remove from the leased premises all personal property located
therein, and may store the same in any place selected by Landlord, including but
not limited to a public warehouse or other space owned or controlled by Landlord
or managed by agent, at the expense and risk of the owners of such personal
property, and the expense and/or risk of Tenants with the right to sell such
stored property, without notice to Tenant, after it has been stored for a period
of thirty (30) days or more, the proceeds of such sale may be applied first to
the cost of such sale, second to the payment of the charges for storage, if any,
and third to the payment of other sums of money which may then be due from
Tenant to Landlord under any of the terms hereof, the balance, if any, to be
paid to Tenant. Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages that may be caused
by Landlord's re-entry and taking possession of the remises or removing and
storing the property of Tenant as provided in this Lease, and will hold Landlord
harmless from loss, costs or damage occasioned by Landlord thereof, and no such
reentry shall be considered or construed to be a forcible entry.
24. NON-WAIVER OF BREACH:
The failure of the Landlord or Tenant to insist upon strict performance of
any of the covenants and agreements of this Lease, or to exercise any option
herein conferred in any one or more instances, shall not be construed to be a
waiver or relinquishment of any such, or any other covenants or agreements, but
the same shall be and remain in full force and effect.
