All sums due hereunder 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 or if Tenant shall occupy the Premises for purposes of operating its business in the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, 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 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 rental 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 proportionate 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 (so long as Tenant has at least twenty (20) days prior notice before the next month), with the number of installments being equal to the number of full calendar months remaining in such calendar year.

Within one hundred twenty (120) days after 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 thirty (30) 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 within thirty (30) days, 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.

Landlord’s books and records relating Tenant’s share of Operating Expenses for any particular calendar year shall be available for inspection by Tenant, during the ninety (90) day period following delivery of Landlord’s statement with respect to such year, during normal business hours upon prior appointment at the Building or another address within the same city as the Building. The books and records shall be kept confidential by Tenant and at the request of Landlord, Tenant shall execute a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to Landlord. In no event shall Tenant be permitted to examine Landlord’s books or records unless Tenant has paid and continues to pay all Base Rent and Additional Rent when due.

4.	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. All rents are payable to Landlord at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000.

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 thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefore, shall pay such share to Landlord as Additional Rent. For any utility service furnished to the Premises not separately metered, such as water and sewer, Landlord shall have the right, at its sole election and at any time, to install at Tenant’s expense a submeter to measure the Premises’ use of such utility service, in which event Tenant, within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefore, shall reimburse Landlord from time to time as Additional Rent for the cost of such utility service used by the Premises. 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.

SECURITY AND DAMAGE DEPOSIT:

Tenant, contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease, has deposited with Landlord the sum of Nineteen Thousand and NO/100 Dollars ($19,000.00), 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 extension hereof. Prior to the time when Tenant shall be entitled to the return of this security deposit, Landlord may commingle such deposit with Landlord’s own funds and use such security deposit for such purpose as Landlord may determine. If there is an Event of Default (as defined below in Article 17), then Landlord, either with or without terminating this Lease may (but shall not be required to) apply such portion of said 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.

Tenant shall have no right to anticipate return of said deposit by withholding any amount required to be paid pursuant to the provisions of this Lease or otherwise.

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 such security deposit and Tenant shall look solely to the said assignee for the return and repayment of said security deposit. Said 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, said 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 said security deposit to Tenant.

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 will equal or exceed fifty percent (50%) of said replacement value of the Building and if the Premises are not suitable as a result of said damage for the purposes for which they are demised hereunder, in the reasonable opinion of Tenant, then Tenant may, no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the damage, give Landlord a written notice of election to terminate this Lease.

c. 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.

d. 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 rentals shall be paid up to that date. Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired Term of this Lease.

e. 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 no later than the fifteenth (15^th) day after Landlord determines that the insurance proceeds are insufficient to restore the Premises, 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 pursuant to: (i) any common law rights, (ii) Minnesota Statutes § 504.05 as now in effect or as it may be hereafter amended or supplemented, or (iii) any comparable right established by a similar statute.

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 aforementioned waivers shall remain in force whether or not Tenant’s or Landlord’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 public liability insurance with respect to the Premises and the business of Tenant, on terms with companies approved in writing by Landlord, 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) require at lease 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 evidence satisfactory to Landlord at the time this Lease is executed that such coverage is in full force and effect.

Landlord shall during the Term hereof keep in full force and effect at its expense a policy or policies of public liability insurance with respect to the Property.

17.

DEFAULT OF TENANT:

a. In the event of any (i) failure of Tenant to pay any rental due hereunder on the date the same shall be due, or (ii) 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 thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure shall have been given to Tenant, provided if such failure cannot be cured within said thirty (30) day period, such period shall be extended so long as Tenant commence cure within said period and continues to diligently pursue cure thereafter, or (iii) 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 (iv) 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 and such proceedings or petition is not withdrawn within forty-five (45) days after filing, or (v) if Tenant or any such guarantor makes an assignment for the benefit or creditors, or (vi) if Tenant shall suffer this Lease to be taken under any writ of execution, then in any such event Tenant shall be in default hereunder (each of the foregoing is an “Event of Default”), 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. After an Event of Default, 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 or rentals 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 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 Event of Default, in addition to any other remedies it may have, it may recover from Tenant all damages it may incur by reason of such Event of Default, including the cost of recovering the Premises, reasonable attorney’s fees, and including the worth (using a present value calculated using a six percent discount rate) at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of the amount of rent 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 Event of Default of Tenant herein and the amount so spent, and costs incurred, including attorney’s fees in curing such Event of Default, shall be paid by Tenant, as Additional Rent, upon demand.

d. After an Event of Default, 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.

e. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants or conditions of this Lease, or otherwise. Tenant also waives any demand for possession of the Premises, and any demand for payment of rent and any notice of intent to re-enter the Premises, or of intent to terminate this Lease, other than the notices above provided in this Article, and waives any and every other notice or demand prescribed by any applicable statues or laws.

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.

INDEMNITY & HOLD HARMLESS:

Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (at Landlord’s request and with counsel approved by Landlord) and hold Landlord and Landlord’s 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, 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 indemnity obligations under this Article shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

Landlord shall indemnify, protect, defend (at Tenant’s request and with counsel approved by Tenant) and hold Tenant and Tenant’s 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 Landlord, any other tenant in the Property or to any other person rightfully in the Property, (i) caused by the negligence or misconduct of Landlord, Landlord’s affiliates or any of their respective employees, representatives, agents or contractors, or (ii) resulting from the violation of any legal requirements or the provisions of this Lease by Landlord, Landlord’s affiliates or any of their respective employees, representatives, agents or contractors; provided, however, the foregoing shall not extend to any legal requirements which concern Tenant’s particular use of the Premises. 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 thirty (30) 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 150% of the amount claimed by such lien claimant. 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 thirty (30) 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 reasonably 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, 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.

19.

NON-LIABILITY:

Subject the terms and conditions of Article 14 and Article 18 hereof, Landlord shall not be liable for damage to any property of Tenant or of others located on the Property, nor for the loss of or damage to any property of Tenant or of others by theft or otherwise. Landlord shall not be liable for any injury or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, water, rain or snow or leaks from any part of the Property or from the pipes, appliances, or plumbing works or from the roof, street or subsurface or from any other place or by dampness, or by any other cause of whatsoever nature. Landlord shall not be liable for any such damage caused by other tenants 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. 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.

20.

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, 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, 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 beyond applicable notice and cure periods;

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 twenty (20) 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 twenty (20) 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 rental 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 rental payable hereunder, and agrees that, notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, no rental 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, all of whom must agree in writing to keep such financial statements confidential.

21.

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 to any entity other than Affiliates (as defined herein), without the specific prior written consent of Landlord in each instance. If Tenant is a corporation, partnership or other legal entity, transfer of a controlling interest of Tenant to any entity other than Affiliates (as defined herein) 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. As used herein, an “Affiliate” of Tenant shall be deemed to be any entity which (i) 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, or (ii) an entity (hereafter an “Acquiring Entity”) which acquires all, or substantially all, of the assets and business of Tenant by purchase of capital stock or other ownership interest, purchase of assets, consolidation, merger or reorganization so long as Tenant demonstrates to Landlord that immediately prior to such acquisition, such Acquiring Entity had a tangible net worth at least as great as the tangible net worth of Tenant at that same time. 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 up to a maximum of $1,000. 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 rents 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 an Event of 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.

22.

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 reasonably require.

23.

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 twenty (20) 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 twenty (20) 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 rental under this Lease more than one month in advance.

24.

SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS:

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

25.

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 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.

26.

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 rents 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.

27.

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.

28.

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. All unpaid or delinquent rents and Tenant obligations of any kind shall accrue interest at the rate of six percent (6.00%) annually from and after the due date.

29.

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, casualty, and condemnation only excepted. 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, all alterations, additions and fixtures, other than Tenant’s trade fixtures, all Computer-Related Equipment (as defined below) and the Clean Room (as defined below), which have been made or installed by either Landlord or Tenant upon the Premises shall remain as Landlord’s property and shall be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof, or Landlord may require removal of any alterations, additions and fixtures made by Tenant at the end of the Term or upon the sooner termination thereof, in which event Tenant shall repair any damage caused thereby.

It is specifically agreed that any and all Computer-Related Equipment and the Clean Room shall be removed at Tenant’s cost using a qualified contractor at the expiration of the Term or sooner termination thereof, with Tenant repairing any damage caused thereby at Tenant’s cost. It is also specifically agreed that any and all telephonic, coaxial, ethernet, or other computer, word-processing, facsimile, or electronic wiring installed for or by Tenant within the Premises (hereafter, “Wiring”) shall be removed at Tenant’s cost using a qualified contractor at the expiration of the Term or sooner termination thereof, with Tenant repairing any damage caused thereby at Tenant’s cost, unless Landlord has specifically requested in writing that said Wiring shall remain, whereupon said Wiring shall be surrendered with the Premises as Landlord’s property. It is specifically agreed that Tenant shall restore the Premises to the condition as existed immediately prior to the installation of the Clean Room. If the Premises are not vacated and surrendered at the end of the Term or sooner termination thereof, 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.

For purposes of the foregoing, (a) “Computer Related Equipment” shall mean, collectively, the area in the Premises containing Tenant’s computers and any Liebert or similar cooling system for the computers (the “Computer Room”), any back-up batteries for the computers, the computers themselves and any other equipment located within, functioning with or otherwise servicing the operation of the computers or Computer Room, including any condenser unit whether located within or outside the Computer Room and Premises; and (b) “Clean Room” shall mean the clean room that

Tenant intends to install on the Premises, including all related fixtures, floor coverings, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, life/safety or other mechanical or utility systems.

30.

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 double 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.

31.

ABANDONMENT:

Intentionally omitted.

32.

CONSENTS BY LANDLORD:

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.

INTENT OF PARTIES:

Except as otherwise provided herein, Tenant covenants and agrees that if (i) 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, and (ii) the applicable cure period under Article 17 has expired, 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 reasonably 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 six percent (6.00%) annually from the date of making of such expenditure by Landlord, shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder, and shall be payable to Landlord within thirty (30) days of written 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 an Event 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 either party hereunder shall be implied from any omission by the other party 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 either party 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.

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.

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 by Tenant or its agents, contractors, employees, licensees or invitees (collectively, the “Tenant Entities”) or the presence of Hazardous Materials requiring remediation as a result of the acts of Tenant or any Tenant Entities, 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 37c within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefore.

d.

45.

Tenant Improvements:

a. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant desires to have certain permanent improvements (the “Tenant Improvements”) made to the Premises to accommodate Tenant’s intended use thereof. Accordingly, Tenant shall cause a qualified architect or other design professional selected by Tenant and reasonably acceptable to Landlord (the “Architect”) to prepare plans, including a full set of

construction drawings (the “Plans”) for the Tenant Improvements. The Plans shall be delivered to Landlord for Landlord’s review and approval. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval of the Plans. Upon Landlord’s approval of the Plans, Landlord shall cause the Plans to be approved by the City. No changes shall be made to the approved Plans without the prior written approval of both Landlord (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) and Tenant. Upon approval of the Plans by the City, Tenant shall hire Xxxx Management LLC for the construction of the Tenant Improvements (the “General Contractor”). All subcontractors shall be subject to the written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, taking into consideration the financial condition, experience, reputation and capabilities of said contractors. The Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the approved Plans, in a good and workmanlike manner using only new and first- grade materials and in compliance with all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, rules and regulations. No Tenant Improvements shall be constructed that would affect the plumbing, wiring, life/safety or mechanical systems of the Building without first obtaining Landlord’s approval and complying with Landlord’s reasonable requirements related thereto.

b. Tenant shall be responsible for constructing the Tenant Improvements and shall contract directly with and pay the General Contractor. In the construction of said Tenant Improvements, Tenant and its General Contractor and their respective contractors, subcontractors, agents and employees shall comply with the provisions of Schedule 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein (said provisions are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Construction Requirements”). Landlord and Tenant have agreed that the costs of the Tenant Improvements shall be paid by Tenant including all costs relating to the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements (including the cost of preparing the Plans, demolition and building permit cost) (collectively, the “Construction Costs”).

c. Except with respect to materially stained ceiling tiles which Landlord shall replace prior to the Commencement Date, it is acknowledged and agreed by Tenant that Tenant accepts the Premises and the mechanical and utility systems serving the Premises in their current “as is” condition with Landlord having no obligation under the Lease to make changes in or otherwise modify the Building or any of the HVAC, electrical, plumbing, life/safety or other mechanical or utility systems serving the Premises in order to accommodate Tenant’s use of the Premises during the Term of the Lease. Any such changes or modifications shall be made as part of the Tenant Improvements and must be shown in the Plans and the costs of any such changes or modifications shall be Construction Costs payable by Tenant in accordance with the provisions of Article 45b above. In its design of the Tenant Improvements, the Architect shall take into account (i) such “as is” condition of the Premises and the mechanical and utility systems serving the Premises and (ii) the type of Equipment (as defined in Article 11 of the Lease Form) Tenant will be using in the Premises and the propensity of such Equipment to be noisy or vibrate. The design of the Tenant Improvements and the placement and/or installation of the Equipment in the Premises by Tenant shall also account for the load bearing capacity of the floors of the Premises.

d. Prior to commencement of construction and at all times during construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall conspicuously post (within the Premises, at the main entrances to the Premises, as well as other places of ingress or egress) notices of non-responsibility (not less than 2’ X 2’) identical to Schedule 2 attached hereto.

e. Simultaneously with Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the amount of $240,000.00, which the parties have estimated is one hundred ten percent (110%) of the total Construction Costs (the “Deposit”). On or before Xxxxx 0, 0000, Xxxxxxxx and Tenant shall adjust the amount of the Deposit based upon the estimated Construction Costs as of such date and, if 110% of the estimated Construction Costs exceed the amount of the Deposit, Tenant shall deposit the excess amount with Landlord on or before March 16, 2012 (and such excess amount shall be a part of the Deposit), and if 110% of the estimated Construction Costs are less than the amount of the Deposit, Landlord shall return such excess amount to Tenant on or

before March 16, 2012. No interest shall accrue on the Deposit. Tenant hereby grants Landlord a security interest in the Deposit to secure Tenant’s obligations to Landlord under this Article 45. Landlord may use such Deposit to pay Construction Costs as and when payable if Tenant fails to pay such Constructions Costs or if there is any other Event of Default as a result of Tenant’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions of this Article 45. So long as there is no Event of Default as a result of Tenant’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions of this Article 45, Landlord shall return the Deposit to Tenant upon the completion of the construction of the Tenant Improvements and satisfaction of the requirements set forth in paragraph D of Schedule 1 attached hereto.

46.

Option to Extend Term:

a. Subject to Article 46b below, provided the Lease or Tenant’s right of possession thereunder has not been earlier terminated, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term of the Lease as to all, but not less than all, of the Premises being leased under the Lease for one (1) period of three (3) years (the “Extended Term”) beginning immediately following the end of the initial Term, subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i) Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord of the exercise of Tenant’s right to extend the Term of the Lease no later than six (6) months prior to the commencement of the Extended Term, time being of the essence (the “Renewal Notice”). If no such Renewal Notice is timely given, the Lease shall terminate as of the end of the initial Term;

(ii) Tenant shall not be in default under the Lease beyond the passage of any applicable period of cure, grace or notice at the time of giving the Renewal Notice or at any time thereafter to and including the commencement of the Extended Term; and

(iii) The extension of the Term hereunder for the Extended Term shall be on the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the initial Term; provided, however, (i) Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term of the Lease beyond the end of the Extended Term, (ii) Article 45 of this Addendum shall not apply to the Extended Term and (iii) the Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord for the Extended Term shall be as follows:


Months	Price Per Square Foot		Monthly		Annually
9/1/15-8/31/16	$	6.49	$	13,506.77	$	162,081.26
9/1/16-8/31/17	$	6.62	$	13,777.32	$	165,327.88
9/1/17-8/31/18	$	6.75	$	14,047.88	$	168,574.50

b. It is acknowledged and agreed by the parties that the right of Tenant to extend the Term of the Lease under this Article 46 is personal to Entellus Medical, Inc. (the “Original Tenant”) and its Affiliates (as defined in Article 21a of the Lease Form) and should said Original Tenant assign the Lease Form or sublet all or any part of the Premises to any person or entity, the right of Tenant to extend the Term of the Lease under Article 46a above shall automatically terminate, and said Article 46a above shall become null and void and of no further force or effect.

47.

Notice of Space Available for Lease. It is acknowledged by the parties that the space immediately adjacent to the Premises on either side is currently being leased to third party tenants. So long as there is no Event of Default, if such space becomes Available for Lease (as defined below), Landlord shall notify Tenant of such fact. As used herein, “Available for Lease” means that such space is not subject to any existing lease provided, however, (i) Landlord may give Landlord’s notice therefore as early as nine (9) months prior to the

expiration of said existing lease(s), and (ii) nothing herein shall preclude Landlord from renewing or extending the term of any third party tenant’s lease of such space.
