calendar year, then Tenant shall, within twenty (20) days after receiving

Lease Agreement. In any event no subletting or assignment 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, - Landlord agrees that subleases of
25% or less of the Premises to entities which are engaged in a joint venture,
partnership or similar business arrangement with Tenant, shall not require
Landlord's consent, so long as prior notice and copies of such subleases have
been given to Landlord.
B. Landlord's right to assign this Lease Agreement is and shall
remain unqualified upon any sale or transfer of the Building and, providing the
purchaser succeeds to the interests of Landlord under this Lease Agreement and
agrees to be bound hereby, Landlord shall thereupon be entirely freed of all
obligations of the Landlord hereunder for the period following such sale and
transfer and shall not be subject to any liability resulting from any act or
omission or event occurring after such conveyance.

existed immediately prior to such damage or destruction, as reasonably possible,
and the rentals shall ▇▇▇▇▇ during such period of time as the Premises are
9

bears to the entire Premises. Landlord, within said ninety (90) day period,
shall give a notice to Tenant that Landlord shall repair, restore or
rehabilitate the Building and/or the Premises or that Landlord shall terminate
the Lease Agreement. This notice shall contain an estimate of the date by which
the Premises can be substantially repaired or, if applicable, the date of the
termination of the Lease Agreement, which shall be no less than ten (10) days
after the date of the giving of the notice. If the estimated date of repair is
not more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the giving of said
notice, then Landlord shall promptly commence and thereafter diligently continue
said repair. If the estimated date is more than one hundred eighty (180) after
said date, then Tenant may, by a written notice given within fourteen (14) days
after receipt of such notice, terminate this Lease Agreement as of the date
specified in the termination notice which shall be no less than ten (10) days
after the date of the giving of the notice. If neither Landlord nor Tenant
terminates the Lease Agreement, then Landlord shall promptly commence and
thereafter diligently complete said repairs. In either of said cases, if
Landlord has not substantially repaired the Premises by the date specified in
Landlord's notice (the applicable period may be extended for up to sixty (60)
days by fire or other casualty, strikes, lockouts, or other labor difficulties,

directors, successors and assigns for any and all loss, damage or destruction to
real or personal property, including without limitation, any loss, damage or
destruction to the Premises, the Building and any property of Tenant at any time
in or around the Premises where such loss, damage or destruction results from a
cause which is, in fact, covered by insurance maintained by the waiving party or
which is of the nature that can be insured by standard fire and extended
coverage, or all-risk insurance coverage, whether or not such loss, damage or
destruction is actually so covered and whether or not such loss, damage or
destruction is due to the act or negligence of Landlord, Tenant or any other
person or entity. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall
supercede, take precedence over and control each and every other provision
contained in this Lease Agreement and shall be given full force and effect
notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Lease Agreement.
ARTICLE 18 - EMINENT DOMAIN
If the entire Building is taken by eminent domain, this lease Agreement
shall automatically terminate as of the date of taking. If a portion of the
Building is taken by eminent domain, the Landlord shall have the right to
terminate this lease Agreement, provided it gives written notice therefore to
the Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of taking. If a portion of the
Premises is taken by eminent domain and this lease Agreement is not terminated
by Landlord, or if parking is taken such that the remaining parking would not
comply with the City

of Edina's ordinances, or if all material access to the Building is taken, then
in any of such events Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease
Agreement, provided it gives written notice thereof to the Landlord within
thirty (30) days after the date of taking. If this Lease Agreement is not
terminated by either Landlord or Tenant, then the Landlord shall, at its
expense, restore the Premises to as near the condition which existed immediately
prior to the date of taking as reasonably possible, and the rentals shall ▇▇▇▇▇
during such period of time as the Premises are untenantable, in the proportion
that the untenantable portion of the Premises bears to the entire Premises. All
damages awarded for such taking under the power of eminent domain shall belong
to and be the sole property of Landlord, irrespective of the basis upon which
they are awarded, provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent
Tenant from making a separate claim to the condemning authority for its moving
expenses and trade fixtures. For purposes of this Article, a taking by eminent
domain shall include Landlord's giving of a deed under threat of condemnation.
ARTICLE 19 - SURRENDER
On the last day of the Term of this Lease Agreement or on the sooner
termination thereof in accordance with the terms hereof, Tenant shall peaceably
surrender the Premises in good condition and repair consistent with Tenant's
duty to make repairs as provided in Article 9 hereof. On or before said last
day, Tenant shall at its expense remove all of its equipment from the Premises,
repairing any damage caused thereby, and any property not removed shall be
deemed abandoned. All alterations, additions and fixtures other than Tenant's
trade fixtures, 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. It is specifically agreed that any and all
telephonic, coaxial, ethernet, or other computer, word-processing, facsimile, or
electronic wiring installed within the Premises (hereafter "WIRING") shall be
surrendered with the Premises as Landlord's property. If the Premises are not
surrendered at the end of the Term or the sooner termination thereof, Tenant
shall indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from delay by
Tenant in so surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, claims
made by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay. Tenant shall promptly
surrender all keys for the Premises to Landlord at the place then fixed for
payment of rental and shall inform Landlord of combinations on any locks and
safes on the Premises.
ARTICLE 20 - NON-PAYMENT OF RENT, DEFAULTS
If any one or more of the following occurs: (1) a rent payment or any
other payment due from Tenant to Landlord shall be and remain unpaid in whole or
in part for more than ten (10) days after written notice that the same is due
and payable; (2) Tenant shall violate or default on any of the other covenants,
agreements, stipulations or conditions herein, or in any parking agreement(s) or
other agreements between Landlord and Tenant relating to the Premises, and such
violation or default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after
written notice from Landlord of such violation or default (or such longer
reasonable period if such violation necessarily requires a longer period in
which to cure and Tenant has commenced such cure within said thirty (30) day
period and continuously and diligently prosecutes such cure activities until
finally cured) or (3) if Tenant shall commence or have commenced against Tenant
proceedings under a bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency or similar type of
action; then it shall
11
be optional for Landlord, without further notice or demand, to cure such default
or to declare this Lease Agreement forfeited and the said Term ended, or to
terminate only Tenant's right ot possession of the Premises, and to re-enter the
Premises, with or without process of law, using such force as may be necessary
to remove all persons or chattels therefrom, and Landlord shall not be liable
for damages by reason of such re-entry or forfeiture; but notwithstanding
re-entry by Landlord or termination only of Tenant's right to possession of the
Premises, the liability of Tenant for the rent and all other sums provided
herein shall not be relinquished or extinguished for the balance of the Term of
this Lease Agreement and Landlord shall be entitled to periodically ▇▇▇ Tenant
for all sums due under this Lease Agreement or which become due prior to
judgement, subject to credit for rents actually received from reletting the
Premises, but such suit shall not bar subsequent suits for any further sums
coming due thereafter. Tenant shall be responsible for, in addition to the
rentals and other sums agreed to be paid hereunder, the cost of any necessary
maintenance, repair, restoration, reletting (including related costs of removal
or modification of tenant improvements) or cure as well as reasonable attorney's
fees incurred or awarded in any suit or action instituted by Landlord to enforce
the provisions of this Lease Agreement, regain possession of the Premises, or
the collection of the rentals due Landlord hereunder. Tenant shall also be
liable to Landlord for the payment of a late charge in the amount of 5% of the
rental installment or other sum due Landlord hereunder if said payment has not
been received within ten (10) days from written notice that said payment was due
and payable. Tenant agrees to pay interest at the highest permissible rate of
interest allowed under the usury statutes of the State of Minnesota, or in case
no such maximum rate of interest is provided, at the rate of 12% per annum, on
all rentals and other sums due Landlord hereunder not paid within ten (10) days
from the date same become due and payable. Each right or remedy of Landlord
provided for in this Lease Agreement shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Lease Agreement now
or hereafter existing at law of in equity or by statute or otherwise.
ARTICLE 21 - LANDLORD'S DEFAULT
Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default under this Lease
Agreement until Tenant has given Landlord written notice specifying the nature
of the default and Landlord does not cure such default within thirty (30) days
after receipt of such notice or within such reasonable time thereafter as may be
necessary to cure such default where such default is of such a character as to
reasonably require more than thirty (30) days to cure.
ARTICLE 22 - HOLDING OVER
Tenant will, at the expiration of this Lease Agreement, whether by
lapse of time or termination, give up immediate possession to Landlord. If
Tenant fails to give up possession, such holdover constitutes a tenancy at
sufferance such Minimum Rental shall be prorated on the basis of a 365 day year
for each day Tenant remains in possession); excepting further that no notices
shall be required prior to commencement of any legal action to gain repossession
of the Premises. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages sustained by
Landlord resulting from retention of possession by Tenant. The provisions of
this paragraph 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.
12
ARTICLE 23 - SUBORDINATION
Tenant agrees that this Lease Agreement shall be subordinate to any
mortgage(s) that may now or hereafter be placed upon the Building or any part
thereof, and to any and all advances to be made thereunder, and to the interest
thereon, and all renewals, replacements, and extensions thereof, provided the
mortgagee named in such mortgage(s) shall agree to recognize this Lease
Agreement and not disturb the possession of the Premises hereunder by Tenant in
the event of foreclosure provided the Tenant is not in default. In confirmation
of such subordination, Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument,
in recordable form, as required by Landlord's mortgagee which agreement shall
contain the non-disturbance provisions provided above. In the event of any
mortgagee electing to have the Lease Agreement a prior encumbrance to its
mortgage, then and in such event upon such mortgagee notifying Tenant to that
effect, this Lease Agreement shall be deemed prior in encumbrance to the said
mortgage, whether this Lease Agreement is dated prior to or subsequent to the
date of said mortgage.

provide for contractual liability coverage by endorsement. Tenant shall further
provide for business interruption insurance to cover a period of not less than

of such insurance or certificates thereof, or other acceptable evidence that
such insurance is in effect, which evidence shall provide that Landlord shall be
notified in writing thirty (30) days prior to cancellation, material change, or
failure to renew the insurance. Tenant further covenants and agrees to indemnify
and hold Landlord and Landlord's manager of the Building harmless for any claim,
loss or damage, including reasonable attorney's fees, suffered by Landlord or
Landlord's manager caused by: i) any act or omission by Tenant, Tenant's
employees or anyone claiming through or by Tenant in, at, or around the Premises
of the Building; ii) the conduct or management of any work or thing whatsoever
done by Tenant in or about the Premises; or iii) Tenant's failure to comply with
any and all governmental laws, rules, ordinances or regulations applicable to
the use of the Premises and its occupancy, provided the same arises out of
Tenant's specific use (as opposed to general office purposes). If Tenant shall
not comply with its covenants made in this Article 24, Landlord may, at its
option, cause insurance as aforesaid to be issued and in such event Tenant
agrees to pay the premium for such insurance promptly upon Landlord's demand.

Premises or any part of the Building by reason to work, labor, services or
materials performed or furnished to Tenant or to anyone holding the Premises
through or under Tenant, Tenant shall forthwith cause the same to be discharged
of record. If Tenant shall fail to cause such lien forthwith to be discharged
within forty-five (45) days after being notified of the filing thereof, then, in
addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not
be obligated to, discharge the same by paying the amount claimed to be due, or
by bonding, and the amount so paid by Landlord and all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorney's fees incurred by Landlord in procuring the
discharge of such lien, shall be due and payable in full by Tenant to Landlord
on demand. Landlord acknowledges that this Article 27 shall not be applicable to
the initial improvements to be constructed within the Premises prior to the
commencement of the Term, pursuant to Exhibit A-3 of this Lease Agreement, to
the extent being constructed by Landlord. Landlord agrees, so long as Tenant is
not otherwise in default, that any mechanic's lien filed against the Building
(for which Tenant is responsible) may remain of record, if Tenant contests the
same by legal action in Hennepin County District Court and if Tenant posts
security (in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord) with Landlord in an
amount of not less than 150% of the amount of the lien; provided Landlord may

upon compliance with the terms hereof and acceptance of the vacated Premises by
Landlord. Tenant understands that its potential liability under this Lease
Agreement is not limited to the amount of the Security Deposit. Use of such
Security Deposit by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver, but is in addition
to other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease Agreement and under
law. Upon the use of all or any part of the Security Deposit to cure any default
of Tenant, Tenant shall forthwith deposit with Landord the amoung to Security
Deposit so used.

Building.
ARTICLE 32 - GENERAL
This Lease Agreement 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 Landlord and Tenant being
that of landlord and tenant. No waiver of any default of Tenant hereunder shall
be implied from any omission by Landlord 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. The covenants of Tenant
to pay the Minimum Rental and the Additional Rental are each independent of any
other covenant, condition or provision contained in this Lease Agreement. The
marginal or topical headings of the several Articles, paragraphs and clauses are
for convenience only and do not define, limit or construe the contents of such
Articles, paragraphs or clauses. All preliminary negotiations are merged into
and incorporated in this Lease Agreement. This Lease Agreement can only be
modified or amended by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto. All
provisions hereof shall be binding upon the heirs, successors and assigns of
each party hereto. If any term or provision of this Lease Agreement shall to any
extent be held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall not be affected
thereby, and each other term and provision of this Lease Agreement shall be
valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. If Tenant is a
corporation, each individual executing this Lease Agreement on behalf of said
corporation represents and warrants that he is duly authorized to execute and
deliver this Lease Agreement on behalf of said corporation in accordance with a
duly adopted resolution of the Board of Directors of said corporation or in
accordance with the Bylaws of said corporation, and that this Lease Agreement is
binding upon said corporation in accordance with its terms. No receipt or
acceptance by Landlord from tenant of less than the monthly rent herein
stipulated shall be deemed to be other than a partial payment
16
on account for any due and unpaid stipulated rent; no endorsement or statement
of any check or any letter of rather writing accompanying any check or payment
of rent to Landlord shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may
accept and negotiate such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's
rights (I) recover the remaining balance of such unpaid rent or (ii) pursue any
other remedy provided in this Lease Agreement. (Neither party shall record this
Lease Agreement or any memorandum thereof, and any such recordation shall be a
breach of this Lease Agreement void, and with effect.) Time is of the essence
with respect to the due performance of the terms, covenants and conditions
herein contained. Submission of this instrument for examination does not
constitute a reservation of or option for the Premises, and this Lease Agreement
shall become effective only upon execution and delivery thereof by Landlord and
Tenant.
ARTICLE 33 - EXCULPATION
Tenant agrees to look solely to Landlord's interest in the
Building for the recovery of any judgment from Landlord, it being agreed that
Landlord and Landlord's partners, whether general or limited (if Landlord is a
partnership) or its directors, governors, officers, managers, members or
shareholders (if Landlord is a limited liability company or corporation), shall
never be personally liable for any such judgment.
ARTICLE 34 - LANDLORD WAIVER
