(L) BASE MONTHLY RENT (Section 3.01): Seventeen Thousand One Hundred
Seventy One and 38/100 ($17,171.38) per calendar month. (Annual Rent:
$206,056.56.) The initial base rent has been calculated based on a Net
Rent of $11.00 per square foot plus $36,986.64 as Tenant's share of
estimated Operating Expenses for the First Lease Year. To the extent
that Landlord's actual remodeling construction costs exceed $107,590,
the excess shall be divided by 15,370 to get an "Excess Cost Per Square

payable during the upcoming Lease Year shall be increased or decreased
by 1/12th of the difference between $36,986.64 and the Operating
Expense Budget.
(O) TENANT'S SHARE OF OPERATING EXPENSES (Section 3.03): 62.68 percent
(62.68%) of all operating expenses as defined in Section 3.03 and
Section 1.01 (N) above, which percentage has been adjusted to reflect

ft. = 62.68%.

through Friday and 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 Noon on Saturday, excluding
holidays. Tenant shall have access and use to the building twenty-four
(24) hours per day, 365 days per year; however, Landlord will not be
required to provide snow removal or building maintenance during such
after-hours use unless agreed in advance that Tenant shall pay the cost
thereof.
(V) TENANT'S OPTION TO TERMINATE: Provided that Tenant is not in default in
payment of any of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall have
the option to terminate effective at the end of the third (3rd) Lease
Year. If Tenant elects to terminate, Tenant must exercise its option by

ARTICLE II. GRANT AND PREMISES
SECTION 2.01. PREMISES. In consideration for the rent to be paid and
covenants to be performed by Tenant, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and
Tenant leases from Landlord for the Term and upon the terms and conditions
herein set forth premises described in Section 1.01(I) (hereinafter referred to
as the "Premises"), located in an office building development referred to in
Section 1.01(H) (hereinafter referred to as the "Building"). The legal
description of the Building is attached hereto as Exhibit "B". Gross rentable
area measurements herein specified are from the exterior of the perimeter walls
of the building to the center of the interior walls. In addition, the factor set
forth in Section 1.01(I) has been added to the area as measured above to adjust
for Tenant's proportionate share of common hallways, restrooms, etc. in the
building.
The exterior walls and roof of the Premises and the areas beneath said
Premises are not demised hereunder and the use thereof together with the right
to install, maintain, use, repair, and replace pipes, ducts, conduits, and wires
leading through the Premises in locations which will not materially interfere
with Tenant's use thereof and serving other parts of the building or buildings
are hereby reserved to Landlord. Landlord reserves (a) such access rights
through the Premises as may be reasonably necessary to enable access by Landlord
to the balance of the building and reserved areas and elements as set forth
above; and (b) the right to install or maintain meters on the Premises to
monitor use of utilities. In exercising such rights, Landlord will use
reasonable efforts so as to not commit waste upon the Premises and as far as
practicable to minimize annoyance, interference or damage to Tenant when making
modifications, additions or repairs.
Subject to the provisions of Article VIII contained hereinbelow, Tenant
and its customers, agents and invitees have the right to the non-exclusive use,
in common with others of such unreserved automobile parking spaces, driveways,
footways, and other facilities designated for common use within the Building. To
the extent any spaces are designated for "customer parking" Tenant agrees to
cause its employees not to park in said "customer parking" stalls.
Said Premises are subject to restrictive covenants and conditions
governing the Utah Valley Business Park which are recorded in the office of the
Utah County Recorder which are attached as Exhibit "F". Landlord represents that
Landlord is not aware of any conflict between the aforesaid restrictive
covenants and conditions and the provisions of this lease.

Base Monthly Rent set forth in Section 1.01(L) at such place as Landlord may
designate, without prior demand therefor, without offset or deduction and in
advance on or before the first day of each calendar month during the Rental
Term, commencing on the Rental Commencement Date. In the event the Rental
Commencement Date occurs on a day other than the first day of a calendar month,
then the Base Monthly Rent to be paid on the Rental Commencement Date shall
include both the Base Monthly Rent for the first full calendar month occurring
after the Rental Commencement Date, plus the Base Monthly Rent for the initial
fractional calendar month prorated on a per-diem basis (based upon a thirty (30)
day month).
SECTION 3.02. ADJUSTMENTS. Tenant's Base Monthly Rent shall be
increased on the Adjustment Dates set forth in Section 1.01(M).
SECTION 3.03. TENANT'S SHARE OF OPERATING EXPENSES.

Operating Expenses for exterior utilities, common area maintenance,
insurance, property taxes and assessments, repairs, security, and
building management fees and costs as set forth in Section 1.01(N) and
Exhibit "F". Tenant's pro-rated share of Landlord's expenses is set
forth in Section 1.01(O) and is calculated by dividing the gross
rentable area of the Premises by 95% of the gross rentable area of the
Premises.
(b) Except as set forth in Section 3.03 (c), Landlord shall
xxxx Tenant for Tenant's Share, if any, at the end of the second Lease
Year of the Rental Term. Beginning with the third Lease Year,
one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant's Share for the prior year shall be
added to the Base Monthly Rent as determined in Sections 3.01 and 3.02
for the next full twelve (12) calendar months of the Rental Term and
shall be paid as set forth in Section 3.05.
Within sixty (60) days after the end of each Lease Year,
Landlord shall deliver to Tenant an accounting in reasonable detail of
actual Operating Expenses certified by an officer of Landlord as true
and correct together with a calculation of Tenant's share of such
expenses incurred by Landlord in that Lease Year. Should the actual
aggregate amount of such Operating Expense exceed the Budgeted amount
paid by Tenant during that Lease Year, then Tenant shall pay the amount
of any excess within twenty (20) days after receipt of invoice. However
if the payments by Tenant for Budgeted Operating Expenses for the
previous year exceeded the actual aggregate amount incurred by
Landlord, then Tenant may deduct the excess amount from the next
monthly payment of Base Monthly Rent due from Tenant.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
electrical and gas utility expenses relating directly to the interior
of the Leased Premises are not included in Operating Expenses and shall
be paid as set forth in Section 12.02.
(d) See Section 27.14 Inspection of Records.
SECTION 3.04. TAXES.

(b) Tenant shall prior to delinquency pay all taxes,
assessments, charges, and fees which during the Rental Term hereof may
be imposed, assessed, or levied by any governmental or public authority
against or upon Tenant's use of the Premises or any inventory, personal
property, fixtures or equipment kept or installed, or permitted to be
located therein by Tenant.
SECTION 3.05. PAYMENTS. All payments of Base Monthly Rent, Additional
Rent and other payments to be made to Landlord shall be made on a timely basis
and shall be payable to Landlord or as Landlord may otherwise designate. All
such payments shall be mailed or delivered to Landlord's principal office set
forth in Section 1.01(C), or at such other place as Landlord may designate from
time to time in writing. If mailed, all payments shall be mailed in sufficient
time and with adequate postage thereon to be received in Landlord's account by
no later than the due date for such payment. If Tenant shall fail to pay any
Base Monthly Rent or any additional rent or any other amounts or charges within
ten (10) days after the due date, Tenant shall pay a late fee equal to two (2%)
percent of such past due amount and, in addition, Tenant shall pay interest from
the due date of such past due amounts to the date of payment, both before and
after judgment at a rate equal to the greater of twelve (12%) percent per annum
or two (2%) percent over the "prime" or "base" rate charged by First Security
Bank, NA, or its successor, at the due date of such payment; provided however,
that in any case the maximum amount or rate of interest to be charged shall not
exceed the maximum non-usurious rate in accordance with applicable law.
SECTION 3.06. ADDITIONAL RENT. Tenant shall pay as "Additional Rent"
any and all sums of money or charges required to be paid by or reimbursed by
Tenant under this Lease whether or not the same be designated Additional Rent.
If such amounts or charges are not paid at the time provided in this Lease, they
shall nevertheless, if not paid when due, be collectible as Additional Rent with
the next installment of Base Monthly Rent thereafter falling due hereunder, but
nothing herein contained shall be deemed to suspend or delay the payment of any
amount of money or charge at the time the same becomes due and payable
hereunder, or limit any interest, late fee or other remedy of the Landlord.

SECTION 4.01. RENTAL TERM. The initial term of this Lease shall be for

termination date, which affidavit shall be deemed to be part of this Lease.
SECTION 4.03. PRELIMINARY TERM. The period between the date Tenant
enters upon the Premises and the commencement of the Rental Term will be
designated as the "preliminary term" during which no Base Monthly Rent or other
common area expenses shall accrue; however, other covenants and obligations of

to Tenant as provided in Section 5.03 shall be considered "entry" by Tenant and
commencement of "preliminary term".
ARTICLE V CONSTRUCTION OF PREMISES

Building in which the Premises are to be located. The Premises are constructed
substantially in accordance with Outline Specifications entitled "Landlord's

SECTION 5.03. DELIVERY OF POSSESSION. Except as hereinafter provided,
Landlord shall deliver the Premises to Tenant ready for Tenant's Work on or
before the date set forth in Section 1.01(J). The Premises shall be deemed as

construction of the portion of the said Premises to be occupied exclusively by
Tenant, in accordance with Landlord's obligations set forth in Exhibit "C/D" and
Section 1.01 (P). Landlord shall, from time to time during the course of
construction, provide information to Tenant concerning the progress of
construction of said Premises, and will give written notice to Tenant when said
Premises are in fact ready for Tenant's Work. If any disputes shall arise as to
the Premises being ready for Tenant's Work, a certificate furnished by
Landlord's architect in charge so certifying shall be conclusive and binding of
that fact and date upon the parties. It is agreed that by occupying the Premises
as a tenant, Tenant formally accepts the same and acknowledges that the Premises
are in the condition called for hereunder, except for items specifically
excepted in writing at date of occupancy as "incomplete".
ARTICLE VI TENANT'S WORK & LANDLORD'S CONTRIBUTION
SECTION 6.01. TENANT'S WORK. Tenant agrees to provide all work of
whatsoever nature in accordance with its obligations set forth in Exhibit "C/D"

to construction, with a complete and detailed set of plans and specifications
drawn by some qualified person acceptable to Landlord setting forth and
describing Tenant's Work in such detail as Landlord may require and in
compliance with Exhibit "C/D", unless this requirement be waived in writing by
Landlord. Landlord must approve all Tenant plans in writing prior to
construction. No substantive deviation from the final set of plans and
specifications once submitted to and approved by Landlord, shall be made by
Tenant without Landlord's prior written consent. Landlord shall have the right
to approve Tenant's contractor to be used in performing Tenant's Work, and the
right to require and approve insurance or bonds provided by Tenant or such
contractors. In due course after completion of Tenant's Work, Tenant shall
certify to Landlord the itemized cost of Tenant improvements and fixtures
located upon the Premises.
ARTICLE VII USE
SECTION 7.01. USE OF PREMISES. Tenant shall use and occupy the Premises
solely for the purpose of conducting the business indicated in Section 1.01(F).
Tenant shall promptly comply with all present or future laws, ordinances, lawful
orders and regulations affecting the Premises and the cleanliness, safety,
occupancy and use of same. Tenant shall not make any use of the Premises which
will cause cancellation or an increase in the cost of any insurance policy
covering the same. Tenant shall not keep or use on the Premises any article,
item, or thing which is prohibited by the standard form of fire insurance
policy. Neither Tenant nor Landlord shall commit any waste upon the Premises and
shall not conduct or allow any business, activity, or thing on the Premises
which is an annoyance or causes damage to Landlord, Tenant to other subtenants,
occupants, or users of the improvements, or to occupants of the vicinity.
SECTION 7.02. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES.
a) Landlord shall be responsible for removal of any Hazardous
Substances that existed at the Leased Premises prior to construction or
any that Landlord has or does install at the Leased Premises or
Building. After reasonable inquiry, Landlord is not aware of any
existing Hazardous Substances in the Building or Common Areas.
b) Tenant shall not use, produce, store, release, dispose or
handle in or about the Leased Premises or transfer to or from the
Leased Premises (or permit any other party to do such acts) any
Hazardous Substance except in compliance with all applicable
Environmental Laws. Tenant shall not construct or use any improvements,
fixtures or equipment or engage in any act on or about the Leased
Premises that would require the procurement of any license or permit
pursuant to any Environmental Law and Tenant shall remove any Hazardous
Substance resulting from Tenant's or its agent's contractors, or
business invitee's acts. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of
(i) the existence of any Hazardous Substance on or about the Leased
Premises that may in violation of any Environmental Law (regardless of
whether Tenant is responsible for the existence of such Hazardous
Substance), (ii) any proceeding or investigation by any governmental
authority regarding the presence of any Hazardous Substance on the
Leased Premises or the migration thereof to or from any other property,
(iii) all claims made or threatened by any third party against Tenant
relating to any loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous Substance
in or about the Leased Premises. "Environmental Laws" shall mean any
federal, state or local statute, ordinance, rule, regulation or
guideline pertaining to health, industrial hygiene, or the environment,
including without limitation, the federal Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability Act; "Hazardous Substance" shall
mean all substances, materials and wastes that are or become regulated,
or classified as hazardous or toxic, under any Environmental Law. If it
is determined that any Hazardous Substance exists on the Premises
resulting from any act of Tenant or its employees, agents, contractors,
licensees, subtenants or customers, then Tenant shall immediately take
necessary action to cause the removal of said substance and shall
remove such within ten (10) days after discovery. Notwithstanding the
above, if the Hazardous Substance is of a nature that can not be
reasonably removed within ten (10) days Tenant shall not be in default
if Tenant has commenced to cause such removal and proceeds diligently
thereafter to complete removal, except that in all cases, any Hazardous
Substance must be removed as soon as possible. Furthermore,
notwithstanding the above, if in the good faith judgment of Landlord,
the existence of such Hazardous Substance creates an emergency or is of
a nature which may result in immediate physical danger to persons at
the Property, and Tenant fails to immediately remove the same after
written notice from Landlord, Landlord may enter upon the Premises and
remove such Hazardous Substances and charge the reasonable cost thereof
to Tenant as Additional Rent.
c) The party herein responsible for removal of Hazardous
Substances shall upon learning of such condition proceed within five
(5) days thereafter to commence removal of such Hazardous Substance and
shall diligently continue to effect such removal until completion.
Removal shall be accomplished in accordance with any applicable safety
standards.

possession of said Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its
part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given
to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court or competent
jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord
may at any time elect to terminate this Lease for such previous default. Should

other remedies it may have, it may recover from Tenant all damages it may incur
by reason of such default, including the cost of recovering the Premises,
reasonable attorney's fees, and including the excess, if any, of the amount of

agreements of this Lease, but in no event shall the Landlord be obliged to apply

event be affected by reason of the fact that the Landlord holds this security.
The said sum, if not applied toward the payment of rent in arrears or toward the
payment of damages suffered by the Landlord by reason of the Tenant's breach of
the covenants, conditions and agreements of this Lease, is to be returned to the

Tenant's default or because of the Tenant's failure to carry out the covenants,
conditions and agreements of this Lease, the Landlord may apply the said
security toward damages as may be suffered or shall accrue thereafter by reason
of the Tenant's default or breach. The Landlord shall not be obligated to keep
the said security as a separate fund, but may mix the said security with its own
funds.

any covenant or provision of this Lease shall discharge or invalidate such
covenant or provision or affect the right of Landlord to enforce the same in the
event of any subsequent breach. One or more waivers of any covenant or condition
by Landlord shall not be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the
same covenant or condition and the consent to or approval of any subsequent
similar act by Tenant. No breach of a covenant or condition of this Lease shall
be deemed to have been waived by Landlord, unless such waiver be in writing
signed by Landlord.

performance by either party of any obligation under this Lease, other than

by Landlord of a lesser amount than the amount owing hereunder shall be deemed

Tenant, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter
accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction,
and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's
right to recover the balance of such rent or receivable or pursue any other
remedy available under this Lease or the law of the state where the Premises are
located.
SECTION 27.06. NO OPTION. The submission of this Lease for examination
does not constitute a reservation of or option for the Premises and this Lease
becomes effective as a lease only upon full execution and delivery thereof by
Landlord and Tenant.

(b) To the extent that Tenant is deprived of the use of any
portion of the Premises as a result of said floor settling, the rental
shall be abated proportionate to the area of deprivation for the time
Tenant is so deprived of such use.
(c) If it appears that Tenant may be deprived of the use of
any portion of said Premises in the future for any extended period of
time, Landlord shall use good faith efforts to provide comparable
temporary space in the Utah Valley Business Park and shall pay the
actual moving costs incurred in relocation and any difference in
occupancy expense charged to Tenant for the temporary space.
(d) Furthermore, if Tenant determines that the settling
problem has not been cured and that Tenant can not, in good faith,
reasonably and practically operate in said Premises, then Tenant may
terminate the said Lease upon written notice to Landlord without
further opportunity to cure by Landlord, and Landlord shall indemnify
Tenant to the extent that Landlord shall pay reasonable actual moving
costs incurred by Tenant to relocate and any increased rental and
occupancy costs incurred by Tenant for the unexpired term of said Lease

deficiency within ten (10) days after the determination that such error has
