Tenant's right to possession and obligations under the lease shall commence on March 6, 1996. 1.3 RENEWAL OPTION. If the lease is not in default at the time each option is exercised or at the time the renewal term is to commence, Tenant shall have the option to renew this lease for two successive terms of five years each, as follows: A. Each of the renewal terms shall commence on the day following expiration of the preceding term. B. The option may be exercised by written notice to Landlord given not less than 180 days prior to the last day of the expiring term.

Landlord and Tenant shall then be bound to take the steps required in connection with the determination of rent as specified below. C. The terms and conditions of the lease for each renewal term shall be identical with the original term except for rent and except that Tenant will no longer have any option to renew this lease that has been exercised. Rent for a renewal term shall be the fair market rental value of the Premises. As used herein, the "fair market rental rate" shall be the monthly rent (triple net) then being obtained for five year fixed rate leases of comparable terms for premises on property within the same geographical area, of similar types and identity, quality and location as the Premises.

If the parties do not agree on the rent within 30 days after notice of election to renew, the rent shall be determined by a qualified, independent real property appraiser familiar with commercial rental values in the area and not affiliated in any way with Landlord or Tenant. The appraiser shall be chosen by Tenant from a list of not fewer than five such individuals submitted by Landlord. If Tenant does not make the choice within five days after submission of the list, Landlord may do so. If Landlord does not submit such a list within 10 days after written request from Tenant to.do so, Tenant may name as an appraiser any individual with such qualifications. Within 30 days after appointment, the appraiser shall return a decision; which shall be final and binding upon both parties. The cost of the appraisal shall be borne equally by both parties. SECTION 2. RENT 2.1 BASE RENT. During the original term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as base rent the sum of $16,500 per month. Rent shall be payable on the first day of each month in advance at such place as may be designated by Landlord. 2.2 SECURITY DEPOSIT. To secure Tenant's compliance with all terms of this lease, Tenant has paid Landlord the sum of $22,000 as a deposit. The deposit shall be a debt from Landlord to Tenant, refundable within 30 days after expiration of the lease term or other termination not caused by Tenant's default. Landlord shall deposit the security deposit in a money market or other interest bearing account reasonably agreeable to Tenant. Landlord shall have the right to offset against the deposit any sums owing from Tenant to Landlord and not paid 2 when due, any damages caused by Tenant's default, the cost of curing any default by Tenant should Landlord elect to do so, and the cost of performing any repair or cleanup that is Tenant's responsibility under this lease. Offset against the deposit shall not be an exclusive remedy in any of the above cases, but may be invoked by Landlord, at its option, in addition to any other remedy provided by law or this lease for Tenant's nonperformance. Landlord shall give notice to Tenant each time an offset is claimed against the deposit, and, unless the lease is terminated, Tenant shall within 10 days after such notice deposit with Landlord a sum equal to the amount of the offset so that the total deposit amount, net of offset, shall remain constant throughout the lease term. 2.3 ADDITIONAL RENT. All taxes, insurance costs, utility charges that Tenant is required to pay by this lease, and any other sum that Tenant is required to pay to Landlord or third parties shall be additional rent. 2.4 ESCALATION.

Refrain from any activity that would make it impossible to insure the Premises against casualty, would increase the insurance rate, or would prevent Landlord from taking advantage of any ruling of the Oregon Insurance Rating Bureau, or its successor, allowing Landlord to obtain reduced premium rates for long-term fire insurance policies, unless Tenant pays the additional cost of the insurance. C. Refrain from any use that would be reasonably offensive to other tenants or. owners or users of neighboring premises or that would tend to create a nuisance or damage the reputation of the premises.

Landlord shall have the right to inspect the Premises at any reasonable time or times to determine the necessity of repair.

This waiver shall be valid only if the insurance policy in question expressly permits waiver of subrogation or if the insurance company agrees in writing that such a waiver will not affect coverage under the policies.

Tenant shall be permitted to contest the amount of any tax or assessment as long as such contest is conducted in a manner that does not cause any risk that Landlord's interest in the Premises will be foreclosed for nonpayment. Landlord shall cooperate in any reasonable manner with such contest by Tenant. 7.4 PRORATION OF TAXES. Tenant's share of real property taxes and assessments for the years in which this lease commences or terminates shall be prorated based on the portion of the tax year that this lease is in effect. 7.5 NEW CHARGES OR FEES .

In such event all rights and obligations of the parties shall cease as of the date of termination, and Tenant shall be entitled to the reimbursement of any prepaid amounts paid by Tenant and attributable to the anticipated term. If neither party elects to terminate, Landlord shall proceed to restore the Premises to substantially the same form as prior to the damage or destruction. Work shall be commenced as soon as reasonably possible and thereafter shall proceed without interruption except for work stoppages on account of labor disputes and matters beyond Landlord's reasonable control. 8.3 RENT ABATEMENT. Rent shall be abated during the repair of any damage to the extent the premises are untenantable. 8.4 DAMAGE LATE IN TERM.

Landlord shall be entitled to all of the proceeds of condemnation, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord as a result of the condemnation except for that portion of the award specifically allocated to compensate Tenant for its damages as a result of the condemnation. B. Landlord shall proceed as soon as reasonably possible to make such repairs and alterations to the Premises as are necessary to restore the remaining Premises to a condition as comparable as reasonably practicable to that existing at the time of the condemnation. C. After the date on which title vests in the condemning authority or an earlier date on which alterations or repairs are commenced by Landlord to restore the balance of the Premises in anticipation of taking, the rent shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in Value of the Premises as an economic unit on account of the partial taking. If the parties are 9 unable to agree on the amount of the reduction of rent, the amount shall be determined by arbitration in the manner provided in Section 17. D. If a portion of Landlord's property not included in the Premises is taken, and severance damages are awarded on account of the Premises, or an award is made for detriment to the Premises as a result of activity by a public body not involving a physical taking of any portion of the Premises, this shall be regarded as a partial condemnation to which Sections 9.1 applies, and the rent shall be reduced to the extent of reduction in rental value of the Premises as though a portion had been physically taken. 9.2 TOTAL TAKING. If a condemning authority takes all of the Premises or a portion sufficient to render the remaining premises reasonably unsuitable for the use that Tenant was then making of the premises, the lease shall terminate as of the date the title vests in the condemning authorities. Such termination shall have the same effect as a termination under Section 9.1. The parties shall be entitled to share in the condemnation proceeds in proportion to the values of their respective interests in the Premises. 9.3 SALE IN LIEU OF CONDEMNATION. Sale of all or part of the premises to a purchaser with the power of eminent domain in the face of a threat or probability of the exercise of the power shall be treated for the purposes of this Section 9 as a taking by condemnation.

Except with respect to activities for which Landlord is responsible, Tenant shall pay as due all claims for work done on and for services rendered or material furnished to the Premises, and shall keep the Premises free from any liens. If Tenant fails to pay any such claims or to discharge any lien, Landlord may do so and collect the cost as additional rent. Any amount so added shall bear interest at the rate of 12 percent per annum from the date expended by Landlord and shall be payable on demand. Such action by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of any right or remedy which Landlord may have on account of Tenant's default. B. Tenant may withhold payment of any claim in connection with a good-faith dispute over the obligation to pay, as long as Landlord's property interests are not jeopardized. If a lien is filed as a result of nonpayment, Tenant shall, within 10 days after 10 knowledge of the filing, secure the discharge of the lien or deposit with Landlord cash or sufficient corporate surety bond or other surety satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient to discharge the lien plus any costs, attorney fees, and other charges that could accrue as a result of a foreclosure or sale under the lien. 10.2 INDEMNIFICATION. Tenant shall indemnify and defend Landlord from any claim, loss, or liability arising out of or related to any negligent activity of Tenant on the Premises or any condition of the Premises in the possession or under the control of Tenant including any such claim, loss, or liability that may be caused or contributed to in whole or in part by Landlord's own negligence or failure to effect any repair or maintenance required by this lease. 10.3 LIABILITY INSURANCE. Before going into possession of the Premises, Tenant shall procure and thereafter during the term of the lease shall continue to carry the following insurance at Tenant's cost: comprehensive general liability insurance in a responsible company with limits of not less than $1,000,000 for injury to one person, $3,000,000 for injury to two or more persons in one occurrence, and $300,000 for damage to property. Such insurance shall cover all risks arising directly or indirectly out of Tenant's activities on or any condition of the premises whether or not related to an occurrence caused or contributed to by Landlord's negligence. Such insurance shall protect Tenant against the claims of Landlord on account of the obligations assumed by Tenant under Section 10.2, and shall name Landlord as an additional insured. Certificates evidencing such insurance and bearing endorsements requiring 10 days' written notice to Landlord prior to any change or cancellation shall be furnished to Landlord prior to Tenant's occupancy of the property. SECTION 11. QUIET ENJOYMENT; MORTGAGE PRIORITY 11.1 LANDLORD'S WARRANTY. Landlord warrants that it is the owner of the Premises and has the right to lease them free of all encumbrances except those set forth on the attached schedule entitled "Exceptions to Title." Landlord will defend Tenant's right to quiet enjoyment of the Premises from the lawful claims of all persons during the lease term. 11.2 TRUST DEED PRIORITY. This lease is and shall be prior to any mortgage or deed of trust ("Encumbrance") recorded after the date of this lease and affecting the Premises. However, if any lender holding such an Encumbrance requires that this lease be subordinate to the Encumbrance, then Tenant agrees that the lease shall be subordinate to the Encumbrance if the 11 holder thereof agrees in writing with Tenant that as long as Tenant performs its obligations under this lease no foreclosure, deed given in lieu of foreclosure, or sale pursuant to the terms of the Encumbrance, or other steps or procedures taken under the Encumbrance shall affect Tenant's rights under this lease. If the foregoing condition is met, Tenant shall execute the written agreement and any other documents required by the holder of the Encumbrance to accomplish the purposes of this paragraph. If the premises are sold as a result of foreclosure of any Encumbrance thereon, or otherwise transferred by Landlord or any successor, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser or transferee. 11.3 ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Either party will, within 20 days after notice from the other, execute and deliver to the other party a certificate stating whether or not this lease has been modified and is in full force and effect and specifying any modifications or alleged breaches by the other party. The certificate shall also state the amount of monthly base rent, the dates to which rent has been paid in advance, and the amount of any security deposit or prepaid rent and such other requirements as may reasonably be required by Landlord's lender. Failure to deliver the certificate within the specified time shall be conclusive proof upon the party from whom the certificate was requested that the lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified except as represented in the notice requesting the certificate. SECTION 12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING 12.1 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Landlord agrees that Tenant may assign this lease (including, at Tenant's option, any renewal options) or sublease all or a portion of the Premises in writing to any other party, with written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, provided that: A.

In such event, Tenant shall be released from all liability hereunder accruing after the date of assignment and Landlord shall execute such instruments as Tenant may reasonably request to evidence such release of liability. Before releasing Tenant from liability, Landlord may undertake reasonable due diligence (but not including an audit) to confirm the prospective Assignee's net worth, the cost of which shall be reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord at the time of obtaining Landlord's release of liability.
