FIRST AMENDMENT TO SUBLEASE
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO SUBLEASE (this “Amendment”) is entered into as of October 27, 2004, by and between Adobe Systems Incorporated, as sublandlord (“Sublandlord”), and Cutter & Buck, Inc., a Washington corporation, as subtenant (“Subtenant”), with reference to the following facts:
A. Pursuant to that certain Quadrant Lake Union Center Lease dated October 31, 1996, as the same has been amended by the First Amendment to Lease dated February 10, 1998, and the Partial Release of Rights (Option to Purchase Lake View Building) dated January , 2001 (as amended, the “Master Lease”). The Quadrant Corporation, a Washington corporation (“Quadrant”), as landlord, leased to Sublandlord, as tenant, certain space (the “Master Lease Premises”) consisting of 254,328 rentable square feet located in Buildings 1 and 2 of the Quadrant Lake Union Center (‘‘Project”) in Seattle, Washington, as more particularly described in the Master Lease. Bedford Property Investors, Inc. (“Landlord”) has succeeded to all right, title and interest of Quadrant in and to the Project and the Master Lease.
B. Pursuant to that certain Sublease dated as of April 30, 2002, by and between Sublandlord and Subtenant (the “Original Sublease”), together with that certain Consent to Sublease dated as of May 6, 2002, by and among Sublandlord, Subtenant and Landlord (the “Consent”). Subtenant sublet from Sublandlord, and Sublandlord sublet to Subtenant, a portion of the Master Lease Premises containing approximately 44,670 rentable square feet consisting of the entire fourth (4th) floor and a portion of the second (2nd) floor of the Plaza Building (i.e., Building Number 2) (the “Building”), said space being more particularly identified and described in the Original Sublease (the “Original Subleased Premises”). The Original Sublease and the Consent are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Sublease.” All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Sublease.
C. Pursuant to the terms of the Original Sublease, commencing as of January 1, 2007, Subtenant agreed to sublease from Sublandlord, and Sublandlord agreed to sublease to Subtenant, approximately 4,697 rentable square feet on the second (2nd) floor of the Building, said space being more particularly identified and described in the Original Sublease (the “Additional Premises”). The Original Subleased Premises and the Additional Premises are collectively referred to in the Original Sublease as the “Subleased Premises.”
D. Sublandlord and Subtenant wish to amend the Sublease to provide for the early sublease by Subtenant of the Additional Premises and to modify the definition of the Additional Premises to mean a portion of the Master Lease Premises containing approximately 4,288 rentable square feet on the second (2nd) floor of the Building and commonly known as Suite 240, said space being more particularly identified and described on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties, Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby agree as follows:
1. Addition of Additional Premises. From and after the date hereof, all references in the Sublease to the “Additional Premises” shall be deemed to mean and refer to the Additional Premises as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto. Subject to Section 2 of this Amendment, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Sublease, as of the date upon which Sublandlord tenders possession of the Additional Premises to Subtenant (the “Additional Premises Commencement Date”), the Additional Premises shall be added to and become a part of the premises sublet by Subtenant under the Sublease, subject to the provisions set forth in this Amendment, and references in the Sublease to the “Subleased Premises” shall be deemed to mean and refer to the Original Subleased Premises and the Additional Premises unless the context clearly requires otherwise. From and after the date hereof, all references in the Sublease to the “Additional Premises Commencement Date” shall be deemed to mean and refer to the Additional Premises Commencement Date as defined in this Section 1. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Amendment, Subtenant’s sublease of the Additional Premises shall be on and subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Sublease. Subject to Section 2 of this Amendment, the Additional Premises Commencement Date is anticipated to occur on or about November 1, 2004 (the “Anticipated Delivery Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Sublandlord is unable to deliver the Additional Premises as of the Anticipated Delivery Date. Sublandlord shall have no liability therefor, except that Subtenant shall have no liability to pay any rent with respect to the Additional Premises until possession of the Additional Premises is tendered to Subtenant. The terms and provisions of Section 2.3 of the Sublease shall not apply to the Additional Premises.
2. Consent. Under the Master Lease, Sublandlord must obtain the consent of Landlord to any subletting. This Amendment shall be in full force and effect upon execution of this Amendment by Sublandlord and Subtenant; provided, however, that the Additional Premises Commencement Date shall not occur unless and until Landlord executes a written consent to this Amendment substantially in the form of the Consent or such other form as is reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord and Subtenant (the “Sublease Amendment Consent”). In the event that the Sublease Amendment Consent executed by Landlord is not delivered to Subtenant within thirty (30) days after the date of this Amendment (which date, at Sublandlord’s option, shall be extended if Subtenant delays in providing any reasonable information that is required by Landlord in connection with providing its consent), Subtenant and Sublandlord shall each have the right to cancel this Amendment by giving written notice of such cancellation (the “Cancellation Notice”) to the other party at any time after such thirty (30) day period; provided, however, that if Subtenant gives Sublandlord a Cancellation Notice, this Amendment shall not be canceled and shall remain in full force and effect if Sublandlord obtains the Sublease Amendment Consent within two (2) days after Sublandlord receives Subtenant’s Cancellation Notice. In no event shall any cancellation of this Amendment pursuant to this Section 2 serve to cancel or terminate the Sublease.

Sublandlord shall have no obligation to furnish, render or supply any work, labor, services, materials, furniture, fixtures, equipment, decorations or other items to make the Additional Premises ready or suitable for Subtenant’s occupancy. In making and executing this Amendment, Subtenant has relied solely on such investigations, examinations and inspections as Subtenant has chosen to make or has made and has not relied on any representation or warranty concerning the Additional Premises or the Building.
