term commencing on April 15, 1988 and ending on December 31,
1992 at a rent of $175,380.00 per annum, payable to Landlord
in equal monthly installments of $14,615.00 in advance,
without notice, on the first day of each month during the
term of this Lease. Tenant shall have the one time right to
extend the term of this Lease for a period of up to five (5)
years by written notice given not later than June 30, 1992.
During such extended term all of the terms and conditions of
the Lease shall remain in full force and effect except that
the rent during such extended term shall be fixed at one
time and shall be the fair market rent for the leased
premises for such extended term (but in no event less than
$175,380.00 per annum).
If Tenant, not later than June 30, 1992, shall have given
written notice as aforesaid of the exercise of its right to
extend the term of this Lease, then, for the purposes of the
foregoing, "fair market rent' shall be determined as
follows: Landlord shall make the initial determination of
fair market rent. Landlord shall give notice to Tenant of
Landlord's determination of fair market rent prior to July
15, 1992. If Tenant shall dispute Landlord's determination,
Tenant shall give notice of such dispute within fifteen (15)
days after receipt of Landlord's determination. Within
fifteen (15) days thereafter, if both parties fail to agree
as to fair market rent then both parties shall agree to the
appointment of a disinterested person of recognized
competence in the field as an appraiser. The appraiser thus
appointed shall as promptly as possible determine fair
market rent. If Tenant shall dispute any determination by
the appraiser, or if both parties cannot agree as to an
appraiser prior to September 1, 1992, fair market rent shall
be determined by arbitration before the American Arbitration
Association of Hartford, Connecticut, in accordance with its
rules then obtaining. All costs of any arbitration pursuant
to the foregoing shall be borne by Landlord and Tenant
equally. In the event of any arbitration pursuant to the
foregoing, or in the event that Landlord and Tenant for any
reason fail to agree as to fair market rent prior to
September 1, 1992, then notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the last date upon which Tenant
shall have the right to give notice of exercise of the
option to purchase provided for in Paragraph 20(A)(iii)
hereof shall be extended from December 31, 1992 until a date
which is 45 days after fair market rent has been determined
by such arbitration or Landlord and Tenant have agreed as to
fair market rent. In the event that the Closing (as defined
in Paragraph 20(A)) shall be scheduled to occur after
December 31, 1992, Tenant shall be entitled to remain in
occupancy of the leased premises until the Closing (but not
beyond June 30, 1993 unless this Lease shall have been
extended for the extended term as provided above), during
which pre-Closing period all provisions of this Lease shall
continue in effect as if this Lease had been so extended and
Tenant shall pay the fair market rent. Notwithstanding
anything in this Lease to the contrary, if Tenant shall give
notice of its exercise of its option to purchase the leased
premises on or after June 30, 1992 and Tenant shall have
given written notice of the exercise of its right to extend
the term of this Lease not later than June 30, 1992, Tenant
may (a) delay the Closing to a date not more than 45 days
after the fair market rent shall have been determined or
agreed upon as aforesaid and (b) rescind such purchase
option exercise at any time during such 45-day period.
In the event during the initial term or any renewal term
hereof, any monthly installment of rental reserved herein
shall not be paid within ten (10) days after the same shall
become due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge which
shall be equal to two percent (2%) of the rental payment
due.
If, however, the date on which Tenant is given possession
begins on a date other than the first day of any month, then

possession to the beginning of the term shall cover the pro
rata rent for a fractional part of the month from the date
possession begins through the last day of that calendar
month.

any other duty or obligation imposed upon it by this Lease
and such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30)
days after written notice thereof has been given to Tenant
by Landlord except that if such default cannot be cured

premises at the applicable option price set forth
below, which option shall be exercisable by written
notice given to Landlord in the manner provided in
paragraph 12 at any time on or prior to December 31,
1992. Such notice shall be given not later than six (6)
months prior to the proposed date of purchase of the
leased premises. The option price shall be: M
$2,800,000 if Tenant exercises said option on or before
December 31, 1990; Hi) $3,000,000 if Tenant exercises
said
option between January 1, 1991 and December 31, 1991,
and Hii) $3,200,000 if Tenant exercises said option
between January 1, 1992 and December 31, 1992; payable
in each case all in current funds at the closing of
such purchase (the "Closing").
(B) Prior to the execution of this Lease, Landlord has
provided Tenant with a Commitment for Title Insurance
(the "Commitment'), issued by Connecticut Attorneys
Title Insurance Company (the "Title Insurance Company")
respecting the leased premises, which Tenant
acknowledges to be in all respects satisfactory to
Tenant. If Landlord conveys the leased premises to
Tenant at the Closing by Connecticut form of warranty
deed showing the leased premises to be subject only to
the encumbrances described in the Schedule A annexed
hereto as 'Permitted Encumbrances" and provides Tenant,
at Tenant's cost, with a Policy of Title Insurance
(issued by the Title Insurance Company) insuring title
to the leased premises in compliance with said
Commitment (subject only to the Permitted
Encumbrances), then Landlord shall have fulfilled all
of Landlord's obligations hereunder with respect to
such conveyance. If Landlord shall H) not be able to
convey the leased premises to Tenant at the Closing by
such deed showing the leased premises to be subject
only to the Permitted Encumbrances or Hi) not be able
to provide Tenant, at Tenant's cost, with such Policy
of Title Insurance, Tenant may waive the foregoing
non-compliance and all related warranties and
representations and consummate the Closing hereunder
notwithstanding such non-compliance. If Landlord shall
fail to consummate the Closing when obligated to do so
hereunder, then, notwithstanding the provision of
Paragraph 18 above, Tenant shall be entitled to
specific performance of conveyance hereunder, but not
to any action for personal liability against Landlord.
Landlord shall pay for the cost of Landlord's title
search and the cost, if any, of said Commitment and
Tenant shall pay for said Policy of Title Insurance.
(C) On or before six months (but not before six months,
unless Tenant shall so consent) after receipt of Tenant's
notice that it has elected to purchase the leased premises,
Landlord shall convey the leased premises to Tenant by
Connecticut form of warranty deed bearing sufficient
federal, state or local documentary stamps and with payment
by Landlord of any other tax or imposition charged by any
jurisdictional authority upon the transfer of real property
and as provided in Paragraph 20(B). During the term of this
Lease, Landlord covenants and agrees that no mortgage will
be placed upon the leased premises unless (a) same is with a
bank or insurance company, (b)such mortgage provides that
same is prepayable at any time, (c)the holder of such
mortgage executes a non-disturbance agreement in
substantially the form provided for in Paragraph 13 of this
Lease, and W the aggregate principal indebtedness under any
such mortgage or mortgages, taken together with all other
mortgages, liens and encumbrances upon the leased premises,
will not exceed the minimum option price set forth in
Paragraph 20(A) above. The foregoing covenant and agreement
in this Paragraph 20(C) and the agreement of Landlord not to
encumber the leased premises in any other way that will
frustrate Tenant's consummation of the Closing following
Tenant's exercise of its option to purchase, shall be a
personal liability and obligation of Landlord
notwithstanding the limitation upon such liability set forth
above in Paragraph 18. Landlord agrees that, at the Closing,
Tenant may apply its payment of the option price to the
discharge of the indebtedness secured by such mortgages,
liens and other encumbrances.
(D) Tenant shall have sixty (60) days, after receipt
by Landlord of Tenant's notice that it has elected to
purchase the leased premises, to engage Xxxxxxx
Environmental Consultants, Inc. ("Xxxxxxx") or another
reputable environmental consultant reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord (such consultant so engaged
being hereinafter referred as the 'Tenant's Engineer")
to perform certain environmental studies of the leased
premises of such scope and degree as are satisfactory
to Tenant and to report the results thereof to Tenant
(the "Environmental Report").Tenant shall deliver a
copy of the Environmental Report to Landlord within ten
(10) days of Tenant's receipt thereof.If Tenant is not
satisfied, in its sole discretion, with the condition
of the leased premises as shown in the Environmental
Report, Tenant may, by sending Notice to Landlord,
received by Landlord within thirty (30) days after the
Environmental Report is received by both parties,
rescind the option to purchase. In addition, if Tenant
has not elected to rescind such option to purchase,
Landlord shall have the right, by sending notice to
Tenant within 30 days after the Environmental Report
is. received by both parties, to cancel Tenant's
exercise of such purchase option if the Environmental
Report shall indicate the presence of environmental
contamination, the cost of investigation and
remediation of which may reasonably exceed $250,000 in
additional costs not theretofore spent by Landlord,
provided, however, that Landlord shall not have such
right if Tenant shall agree to pay the excess of such
costs above $250,000.
If Tenant shall not rescind this option to purchase as
aforesaid, it shall be irrefutably presumed that Tenant and
Park Electrochemical Corp. are satisfied with the condition
of the leased premises from an environmental standpoint and
therefore, except as to those liabilities and obligations
allocated to Xxxxxxxxxxx Industries, Inc. ("EI") pursuant to
Paragraphs 25(A) and 25(B) hereof, Tenant and Park
Electrochemical Corp. shall, upon the Closing and without
any further action by either of them: M assume, jointly and
severally, effective as of the Closing, all liability and
obligations relating to the following (the 'Environmental
Conditions"): Any Spill, Release, Hazardous Waste (as
defined in Conn. Gen. Stat. Sec 22a-115), Hazardous
Substance (as defined in 42 U.S. Code Sec. 9601 et seq.)
and/or environmental contamination of any sort at or
emanating from the leased premises; and the presence of any
underground storage tanks (or the contents thereof) on the
leased premises; and (ii) agree, effective as of the
Closing, to indemnify, jointly and severally, Landlord
against and hold Landlord harmless of and from all loss,
costs, claims, damages, charges, fines, liens, liability and
expense (including, but not limited to, consultant's fees
and attorneys' fees) arising from or in connection with any
of the Environmental Conditions.

alternations shall be commenced promptly and prosecuted
with reasonable diligence, unavoidable delays excepted.
(B) All insurance money paid to Landlord on account of
such damage or destruction, less the actual cost, fees
and expenses, if any, incurred in connection with
adjustment of the loss, shall be applied by Landlord
(or reimbursed to Tenant if Tenant has advanced moneys
pursuant to Paragraph 21(A) hereof) to the payment of
the cost of the aforesaid demolition, restoration,
