LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS LEASE, made this 26th day of July, 1994, by and between Northwestern
National Life Insurance Company, x/x Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxx.,
hereinafter called "Lessor," and Carlisle Corporation DBA Braemar, Inc.,
hereinafter called "Lessee."
WITNESSETH: That Lessor, in consideration of the rents and covenants
hereinafter mentioned, does hereby demise, lease and let unto Lessee, and Lessee
does hereby hire and take from the Lessor the following described premises,
located in Burnsville, County of Dakota, and State of Minnesota, namely:

Stalls: N/A, Lease Term: 5 years, From: 9-1-94 To: 8-31-99, Monthly Rent: See
Exhibit E Use of Premises: Office and Manufacturing.
2. LEASE. In consideration of these mutual agreements and provisions,
Lessor leases to Lessee and Lessee leases from Lessor the above premises for the
above use and in compliance with Federal, State and Local Regulations and the
Rules and Regulations established by Lessor and attached hereto as Exhibit C.
3. RENT PAYMENTS. Lessee shall pay to Lessor in advance, the stated
monthly rent on or before the first day of each month with said amount to be
prorated for the first and last month of the lease term if occupancy by Lessee
shall begin or end on a day other than the first of the month. Lessor shall have
the right to assess and collect from Lessee a late charge of five (5) percent of
rent payments received after the fifteenth of the month, said amount to be paid
with the next installment of monthly rent. Failure on behalf of Lessee to make
these rent payments until proper termination of this Agreement will result in
the right of Lessor to exercise legal remedies.
4. ADDITIONAL RENT. In addition to the above rent payments, Lessee
shall pay to Lessor its percentage share of real estate taxes, including
installments of special assessments payable therewith, due and payable upon the
building and land in any calendar year during the term hereof, together with its
percentage share of any insurance premiums required to be paid by Lessor on the
building or its operations including property and liability, and management
fees, security costs, and other operating expenses relating to the property.
This additional rent shall be paid in equal monthly installments during the
calendar year in which Lessor shall be required to make such payments. If the
amount of such payments are not known at the beginning of the calendar year,
Lessee shall pay a reasonable estimate of the amount thereof, as determined by
Lessor, with a retroactive adjustment made at such time as the actual amount
shall be determined.
5. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Upon the date hereof, Lessee shall pay to Lessor
the amount of $23,044.10 half of which shall be the payment of rent for the
first month of occupancy and the remaining half of which shall be a Security
Deposit to guarantee the payment of rent and the performance of all terms of
this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any default by Lessee, Lessor may use
said Security Deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrearages of
rent or any other expense. Any remaining balance of said Security Deposit shall
be returned to Lessee upon compliance with the terms herein and acceptance of
the vacated premises by Lessor. Lessee understands that its liability is not
limited to the amount of the Security Deposit and use of such deposit by Lessor
shall not constitute a waiver, but is in addition to other remedies available to
Lessor under this Agreement and Law. Upon the use of all or part of the Security
Deposit to cure defaults of Lessee, Lessee shall forthwith deposit with Lessor
the amount of the Security Deposit so used.
6. OCCUPANCY. Lessor agrees to deliver the premises in a safe, broom
clean and usable condition, in compliance with all applicable Building Codes. In
the event Lessee is prevented from occupying the premises at the start of the
above term due to delays by Lessor, the rent shall be abated for each day
occupancy is delayed, but the lease term will still end on the date set forth
above.
7. UTILITIES. Lessee shall pay for all utilities, including gas,
electricity, water, sewer and telephone services for the premises during the
term of this Agreement. The common area utilities which serve the premises are
separately metered and Lessee shall pay its percentage share of any such utility
expense.
-11-
8. STRUCTURAL MAINTENANCE. Lessor shall, at its expense, keep the
structural parts of the building in good repair, including the structural parts
of the exterior walls, roof, floor, foundation, and interior columns except that

9. EXTERIOR MAINTENANCE. Lessor shall contract for, and Lessee shall
pay its percentage share of all common areas heat, electricity, water, sewer,
landscape care, snow removal, window washing, parking lot maintenance, exterior
painting and all other such maintenance required during the term of this
Agreement. All services shall be provided for the comfortable use of the
premises during business hours provided that Lessor is not liable for damages
for failure to provide services due to causes beyond its reasonable control.
Lessor shall provide Lessee, upon demand, with satisfactory evidence that these
expenses have been incurred.
10. INTERIOR MAINTENANCE. Lessee shall be responsible for the interior
maintenance of the premises including maintenance, repair or replacement of
entrance door, overhead garage doors, heating, plumbing, electrical, mechanical
and air-conditioning fixtures and equipment used by Lessee; the replacement of
all glass broken and expendables, and agrees to keep the premises, and surrender
the premises upon termination of this Agreement, in as good as a condition as
when turned over to it, reasonable wear and tear and damage from the elements
excepted. Maintenance of heating, mechanical and air-conditioning fixtures and
equipment shall specifically include the reasonable cost of quarterly
inspections and repairs performed by an independent mechanical contractor who
shall be contracted for by Lessor.
11. CASUALTY INSURANCE. Lessor shall maintain and Lessee shall pay its
percentage share of the premium for fire and extended coverage insurance on the
property and any other insurance that Lessor may be required to carry on the
property or its operations. If the use of the premises by Lessee results in any
rate increases for such insurance, Lessee shall correct the circumstances that
cause such rate increase or shall pay such rate increase immediately when due.
12. LIABILITY INSURANCE. Lessee will maintain in force during the term
of this Agreement a contents and public liability insurance policy with Lessor

for property damage. Lessee agrees to deliver to Lessor a Certificate of
Insurance with a 30-day cancellation clause, prior to occupancy. Lessor will
require each of the other lessees to carry the same insurance on their contents
and property and will not permit any practice by any lessee that may cause an
increase in the insurance premium for the building without charging said
increase to the causing lessee for the benefit of all other lessees.
13. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Lessor and Lessee each hereby mutually waive
and release all claims and liabilities against the other, and the agents,
servants, employees and invitees of the other, for loss or damage to the
premises or any portion thereof, the building and other improvements of which
the premises are a part, as well as any improvements, fixtures, equipment,
supplies, merchandise and other property located in, upon or about the premises,
resulting from fire, explosion or other perils included in standard fire and
extended coverage insurance, whether caused by the negligence of any of said
persons of entities, or otherwise. It is understood that Lessor and Lessee shall
look solely to their own insurers in the event of casualty.
14. LOSS PROTECTION. Lessee agrees to hold Lessor harmless from and
indemnify Lessor against any and all liabilities, damages and expenses arising
from injury, damage or loss to or caused by Lessee, its employees, guests,
agents, sub-tenants or visitors, or any property of said persons, in or about
the premises, building or grounds from any cause whatsoever, connected with the
use of or activities in or about the property. Lessee further will make no claim
against Lessor for any loss of or damage to the premises or property of Lessee
caused by theft, burglary, water, gas or other means, unless such loss or damage
is caused solely by the Lessor's gross negligence.
15. FIXTURES AND EQUIPMENT. All fixtures and equipment considered
necessary to the general operation and maintenance of the property shall be the
property of Lessor, except that any "trade fixtures" provided by Lessee, at its
own expense, shall remain the property of the Lessee and will be removed by
Lessee upon termination of this Agreement. Lessee grants to the Lessor a lien
upon all personal property of Lessee in said
-12-
premises to secure payment of the rent, and agrees that no such property shall
be removed from said premises while any installments of rent are past due and or
other default exists under this Agreement.
16. BREACH. A breach of this Agreement shall exist, if at any time
during the term of this Agreement Lessee shall: (a) vacate said premises or
default in the payment of rent or in the performance of any of these provisions;
or (b) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (c) file or have
filed against it, a petition for bankruptcy or arrangement in settlement of
liabilities or reorganization. In such event, Lessor shall have the following
rights:
(1) Lessor shall have the right to enter the premises and
remove all persons and property from the premises and store such
property in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of Lessee, and
Lessor may either terminate this Agreement or, without terminating this
Agreement, make such alterations and repairs as may be necessary in
order to rent the premises, and rent the premises of any part thereof
for such term and at such rents and upon such other terms and
conditions as Lessor, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable. Upon
such renting, all rentals received by Lessor shall be applied first to
the payment of any debt other than rent due hereunder from Lessee to
Lessor, second to pay any reasonable costs and expenses of such
renting, including brokerage and legal fees; third to pay any rent due
hereunder, and the residue, if any, shall be held by Lessor and applied
in payment of future rent which becomes due and payable hereunder. If
the rental received from renting the premises is less than the rent
payable hereunder, Lessee shall pay any such deficiencies, monthly, to
Lessor. No entry or taking possession of the premises by Lessor shall
be an election by Lessor to terminate this Agreement.
(2) Lessor shall also have the right to terminate this
Agreement in which event, in addition to any other remedies Lessor may
have, Lessor may recover from Lessee all damages incurred by reason of
Lessee breach, including the cost of recovering the premises,
reasonable legal fees and any excess of the rent reserved in this
Agreement for the remainder of the stated term over the then reasonable
rental value of the premises for the remainder of the stated term, all
of which shall be immediately due and payable from Lessee to Lessor.
(3) Lessor may, at its option, instead of exercising any other
right or remedy, spend such reasonable sums as may be reasonably
necessary to cure any default of Lessee and such amount, including
legal fees, shall be paid by Lessee, as additional rent, upon demand.
(4) Any remedy of Lessor herein or by law or statute shall be
cumulative with all other remedies and may be exercised from time to
time and as often as the occasion may arise.
(5) No forbearance by Lessor to exercise any right accruing to
Lessor hereunder shall be construed as a waiver of any such rights.
17. IMPAIRMENT OF USE. If the premises shall become untenantable or
unfit for occupancy, in whole or in part, by the total or partial destruction of
the building by fire or other casualty, this Agreement may, at the option of the
Lessor, cease and terminate and Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor for
the value of any unexplored term of said Agreement. If Lessor shall elect to
restore the premises, rent shall be abated for each period of restoration in
accordance with the ratio of the portion of the premises deemed untenantable to
the entire premises.
18. CONDEMNATION. If the whole or any part of the demised premises
shall be acquired or condemned by eminent domain for any public or quasi-public
use or purpose, then, and in the event, the term of this Agreement may, at the
option of the Lessor, cease and terminate from the date the title vests and
Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor for the value of any unexpired term of
said Agreement.
19. OTHER PAYMENTS. In addition to the rent set forth herein, all other
payments to be made by Lessee to Lessor hereunder shall constitute rent as
herein defined.
20. HOLDING OVER. If Lessee remains in possession of the premises after
expiration of the lease term, without the execution of a new lease, it shall be
deemed to be occupying the premises as a Lessee from month
-13-
to month, subject to all the conditions provisions and obligations of this
Agreement insofar as the same can be applicable to a month-to-month tenancy,
provided, however, that the basic rent required to be paid by Lessee during any
holdover period shall be a minimum of 200% of the basic monthly rent required as
set forth above. Any holding over, however, shall not be considered a renewal of
this Agreement.
21. MORTGAGE LIEN. This Agreement is subject to the terms and the lien
of present and future mortgage deeds securing the premises.
22. EXHIBIT. Any and all exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be a
part of this Agreement and any amendments hereto shall be in writing and
executed by both Lessor and Lessee.
23. RULES AND REGULATION. Lessee has read and agrees to be bound by the
Rules and Regulations of Lessor attached hereto as an exhibit to this Agreement,
and acknowledges that a violation of any of said Rules and Regulations shall
constitute a breach of the provisions of this Agreement. Such Rules and
Regulations may be added to or amended from time to time by Lessor for the
benefit of all lessees within the building, and such additions or amendments
shall become effective immediately upon notification, provided that such changes
do not materially or adversely affect Lessee's business or permitted use of the
Premises.
24. ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLETTING. Lessee will not mortgage, assign or
otherwise encumber this Lease, or allow the premises to be assigned by operation
of law or otherwise, or sublet premises or any part thereof, or use or permit
the same to be used for any other purpose than stated in the use clause hereof
without prior written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Lessee desires to
assign or sublet the premises Lessee shall provide Lessor with not less than
sixty (60) days prior written notice of Lessee's proposed action, specifying in
detail any and all terms of such assignment or sublease. In the event an
assignment or sublease is approved by Lessor, Lessee shall pay to Lessor an
assignment or subletting fee of ten percent (10%) of one month's Rent for the
space involved but not less than $250.00. Lessor reserves the right to cancel
and terminate this Lease in whole, or as to the part sublet, within sixty (60)
days after receipt of such notice from Lessee. No assignment or subletting shall
relieve Lessee from its obligations hereunder. See Exhibit E.
25. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Lessee specifically agrees to not use, or
permit the use or storage of any hazardous substances within the premises.
Lessee agrees that the terms "hazardous substance" shall have the meaning set
forth on Exhibit D and that Lessee shall not permit the use of storage of any
such hazardous substance within the premises other than set forth in Exhibit D
or as may from time to time be added or deleted from said list with the approval
of the Lessor, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
26. ALTERATIONS, ADDITIONS, IMPROVEMENTS. Lessee will not make or allow
to be made any alteration or additions in or to the premises without the prior
written consent of Lessor. Such alterations, physical additions or improvements
as well as those improvements made at the Lessee's expense such as by way of
example but not limitation: wall coverings, floor coverings or carpet, paneling,
doors and hardware, any and all of such improvements shall become the property
of the Lessor and shall in no event be removed by the Lessee . It is the
responsibility of the Lessee to restore the premises to the condition that
existed when Lessee first took possession (ordinary wear and tear excepted) if
Lessor so requests. This clause shall not apply to movable non-attached fixtures
or furniture of the Lessee. If any mechanic's lien is filed against the premises
or the real estate of which the premises form a part, which lien concerns the
Lessee and/or the premises, Lessee shall cause same to be discharged of record,
by bonding or otherwise, within ten (10) days after the lien is filed. Nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to be a consent by Lessor to the providing of
any labor or materials to the premises by Lessee which could give rise to
mechanics liens. Lessee shall at the request of Lessor, post the premises with
