Landlord leases the Demised Premises to Tenant and Tenant leases the Demised Premises from Landlord for the Lease Term stated in Section 1.05. The Commencement Date is the date specified in Section 1.05, unless advanced or delayed under any provision of this Lease. 2.04. Holding Over. Tenant shall vacate the Demised Premises immediately upon the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any indemnify Landlord against all direct and actual damages incurred by Landlord as a result of any delay by Tenant in vacating the Demised Premises. If Tenant does not vacate the Demised Premises upon the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant's occupancy of the Demised Premises shall be a day-to-day tenancy, subject to all of the terms of this Lease, except that the Base Rent during the holdover period shall be increased to an amount which is one-and-one-half (1 1/2) times the Base Rent in effect on the expiration or termination of this Lease, computed on a daily basis for each day of the holdover period, plus all additional sums due under this Lease. This paragraph shall not be construed as Landlord's consent for Tenant to hold over or to extend this Lease. ARTICLE THREE: RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSIT 3.01. Manner of Payment. All sums payable under this Lease by Tenant (the "Rent") shall be made to the Landlord at the address designated in Section 1.02, unless another person is designated in Section 1.10, or to any other party or address as Landlord may designate in writing. Any and all payments made to a designated third party for the account of the Landlord shall be deemed made to Landlord when received by the designated third party. All sums payable by Tenant under this Lease, whether or not expressly denominated as rent, shall constitute rent for the purposes of Section 502(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code and for all other purposes. The Base Rent is the minimum rent for the Demised Premises and is subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Lease, together with the attached Addenda, if any. 3.02. Time of Payment. Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay the installment of Base Rent for the first month of the Lease Term. On or before the first day of the second month of the Lease Term and of each month thereafter, the installment of Base Rent and other sums due under this Lease shall be due and payable, in advance, without off-set, deduction or prior demand Tenant shall cause payments to be properly mailed or otherwise delivered so as to be actually received by the party identified in 1.10 above on or before the due date (and not merely deposited in the mail). If the Lease Term commences or ends on a day other than the first or last day of a calendar month, the rent for any fractional calendar month following the Commencement Date or preceding the end of the Lease Term shall be prorated by days. Page 2 13 3.03. Late Charges. Tenant's failure to promptly pay sums due under this Lease may cause the landlord to incur unanticipated costs. The exact amount of those costs is impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain. The costs may include [ILLEGIBLE] not limited to processing and accounting charges and late charges which may be imposed on Landlord by any ground lease or deed of trust encumbering the Demised Premises. Payments due to Landlord under this Lease are not an extension of credit. Therefore, if any payment under the Lease is not actually received on or before three (3) days after the due date (and not merely deposited in the mail) applicable, Landlord may, at Landlord's option and to the extend allowed by applicable law; impose a Late Charge on any late payments in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the amount of the past due payment the ("Late Charge") per day for each day after the due date, until the past due amount in Good Funds is received by Landlord up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of the past due amount. A Late Charge may be imposed only once on each past due payment. Any Late Charge will be in addition to Landlord's other remedies for nonpayment of rent [if any check tendered to Landlord by Tenant under this Lease is dishonored for any reason, Tenant shall pay to the party receiving payments under this Lease a fee of twenty-five dollars ($25.00), plus (at Landlord's option) a Late Charge as provided above until good funds are received by Landlord. The parties agree that any Late Charge and dishonored check fee represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment or dishonored check. Payments received from Tenant shall be applied first to any Late Charges, second to Base Rent, and last to other unpaid charges or reimbursements due to Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord will not impose a Late Charge as to the first late payment in any calendar year, unless Tenant fails to pay the late payment to Landlord within three (3) business days after the delivery of a written notice from Landlord to Tenant demanding the late payment be paid. However, Landlord may impose a Late Charge without advance notice to Tenant on any subsequent late payment in the same calendar year. 3.04. Security Deposit. Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a cash Security Deposit in the amount stated in Section 1.08. Landlord may apply all or part of the Security Deposit to any unpaid Rent or other charges due from Tenant or to cure any other defaults of Tenant. If Landlord uses any part of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall restore the Security Deposit to its full amount within ten (10) days after Landlord's written demand. Tenant's failure to restore the full amount of the Security Deposit within the time specified shall be a default under this Lease. No interest will be paid on the Security Deposit. Landlord will not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its other accounts and no trust relationship is created with respect to the Security Deposit. Upon any termination of this Lease not resulting from Tenant's default, and after Tenant has vacated the Property and cleaned and restored the Demised Premises in the manner required by this Lease, Landlord shall refund the unused portion of the Security Deposit to Tenant within thirty days after the Termination Date or thirty days after Tenant fully complies with the conditions of termination as required in Section 7.05, whichever is later. 3.05. Good Funds Payments. If, for any reason whatsoever, any two or more payments by check from Tenant to Landlord for Rent are dishonored and returned unpaid, thereafter Landlord may, at Landlord's sole option, upon written notice to Tenant, require that all future payments of Rent for the remaining term of the Lease must be made by cash, certified check, cashier's check, or money order ("Good Funds") and that the delivery of Tenant's personal or corporate check will no longer constitute payment of Rent under this Lease provided, however, if after twelve (12) consecutive timely payments of Rent in Good Funds as provided herein, Tenant is not in Default hereunder, Tenant may resume paying Rent by personal or corporate check so long as any such check thereafter is not dishonored and returned unpaid. Any acceptance by Landlord of a payment for Rent by Tenant's personal or corporate check thereafter shall not be construed as a waiver of Landlord's right to insist upon payment by Good Funds as set forth herein. ARTICLE FOUR: TAXES 4.01. Payments by Landlord. Tenant shall pay the real estate taxes on the Demised Premises accruing during the Lease Term. 4.02. Tenant shall pay such real estate taxes and, upon request, furnish Landlord with written evidence of payment before the same becomes delinquent. If Tenant fails to timely pay such real estate taxes, Landlord may pay the taxes, whereupon Tenant shall, upon demand, reimburse Landlord for the amount thereof, plus 5% of the amount. 4.03. Joint Assessment. If the real estate taxes are assessed against the Demised Premises jointly with other property not constituting a part of the Demised Premises, the real estate taxes applicable to the Demised Premises shall be equal to the amount bearing the same proportion to the aggregate assessment that the total square feet of building area in the Demised Premises bears to the total square feet of building area included in the joint assessment. 4.04. Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay all taxes assessed against trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment, inventory, products, or any other personal property belonging to Tenant. Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to have Tenant's property taxed separately from the Demised Premises. If any of Tenant's property is taxed with the Demised Premises, Tenant shall pay the taxes for its property to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after Tenant receives a written statement from Landlord for the property taxes. ARTICLE FIVE: INSURANCE AND INDEMNITY 5.01. Property Insurance. During the Lease Term, Tenant shall maintain policies of property insurance covering loss of or damage to the Demised Premises in an amount or percentage of replacement value as Landlord deems reasonable in relation to the age, location, type of construction and physical condition of the Demised Premises and the availability of insurance at reasonable rates. The policies shall provide protection against all perils included within the classification of special causes, which includes fire and extended coverage and providing such coverage and insuring against such perils as reasonably required by Landlord, including, without limitation, business income and rental insurance naming Landlord as the additional insured. Landlord may, at Landlord's option, obtain insurance coverage for Tenant's fixtures, equipment or building improvements installed by Tenant in or on the Demised Premises. Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, maintain insurance on its fixtures, equipment and building improvements as Tenant deems necessary to protect Tenant's interest. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which invalidates any insurance policies. Tenant shall deliver a copy of the policy or certificate of insurance (or a renewal) to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date and prior to the expiration of the policy during the Lease Term. If Tenant fails to maintain the policy, Landlord may elect to maintain the insurance at Tenant's expense which Tenant shall reimburse to Landlord upon demand. 5.02. Increase in Premiums. Tenant shall not permit any operation or activity to be conducted, or storage or use of any volatile or any other materials, on or about the Demised Premises that would cause suspension or cancellation of any fire and extended coverage insurance policy without the prior written consent of Landlord. If Tenant's use and occupancy of the Demised Premises causes an increase in the premiums for any fire and extended coverage insurance policy, Tenant shall pay the amount of the increase. Page 3 14 5.04. INDEMNITY. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or to Tenant's employees, agents, invitees or visitors, or to any other person, for any injury to persons or damage to property on or about the Demised Premises or any adjacent area owned by Landlord caused by the negligence or misconduct of Tenant, Tenant's employees, subtenants, agents, licensees or concessionaires or any other person entering the Demised premises under express or implied invitation of Tenant, or arising out of the use of the Demised Premises by Tenant and the conduct of Tenant's business, or arising out of any breach or default by Tenant in the performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease; and Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any loss, expense or claims arising out of such damage or injury. Tenant shall not be liable for any injury or damage caused by the negligence or misconduct of Landlord, or Landlord's employees or agents, and Landlord agrees to indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from any loss, expense or damage arising out of such damage or injury. 5.06 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Each party to this Lease waives any and every claim which arises or may arise in its favor against the other party during the term of this Lease or any renewal or extension of this Lease for any and all loss of, or damage to, any of its property located within or upon, or constituting a part of, the Demised Premises, which loss or damage is covered by valid and collectible property insurance policies, to the extent that such loss or damage is recoverable under such insurance policies. These mutual waivers shall be in addition to, and not in limitation or derogation of, any other waiver or release contained in this Lease with respect to any loss of, or damage to, property of the parties. Inasmuch as these mutual waivers will preclude the assignment of any aforesaid claim by way of subrogation or otherwise to an insurance company (or any other person), each party hereby agrees to give immediately to each insurance company (which has issued to such party policies of fire and extended coverage insurance) written notice of the terms of such mutual waivers, and to cause such policies to be properly endorsed to prevent the invalidation of the insurance coverage by reason of these waivers.

If the casualty occurs during the final eighteen (18) months of the Lease Term, Landlord shall not be required to rebuild or repair the damage unless Tenant exercises Tenant's renewal option (if any) within fifteen (15) days after the date of receipt by Landlord of the notification of the occurrence of the damage. If Tenant does not exercise its renewal option, or if there is no remaining renewal option, Landlord may, at Landlord's option, terminate this Lease by promptly delivering a written termination notice to Tenant, in which event the Rent shall be abated for the unexpired portion of the Lease Term, effective from the date of receipt by Landlord of the written notification of the damage. To the extent the Demised Premises cannot be occupied (in whole or in part) following the casualty, the Rent payable under this Lease during the period in which the Demised Premises cannot be fully occupied shall be Page 6 17 8.03. Substantial or Total Destruction to the building or other improvements situated in the Demised Premises are substantially or totally destroyed by fire, tornado, or other casualty, and so damaged that rebuilding or repairs cannot reasonably be completed within one hundred days from the date Landlord receives written notification by Tenant of the occurrence of the damage either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by promptly delivering a written termination notice to the other party, in which event the monthly installment of Rent shall be calculated for the unexpired portion of the Lease Term, effective from the date of the damage or destruction, if neither party terminates this Lease shall to the extent of insurance proceeds available for such rebuilding and restoration proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair the building and other improvements except that Tenant shall rebuild and repair Tenant's fixtures and improvements in the Demised Premises). To the extent the Demised Premises cannot be occupied in whole or in part following the casualty, the Rent payable under this Lease during the period in which the Demised Premises cannot be fully occupied shall be adjusted equitably. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 8.03, Tenant may provide written notice to Landlord within ten (10) business days thereafter of Tenant's election to rebuild the Demised Premises, in which event (i) this Lease shall not terminate, (ii) Landlord shall rebuild the Demised Premises in accordance with Section 8.03 as if Landlord had not elected to terminate, and (iv) Rent payable under this Lease during the period in which the Demised Premises cannot be fully occupied shall be adjusted equitably.

Tenant may not make such election during the last 18 months of the final Extension. ARTICLE NINE: CONDEMNATION If, during the Lease Term or any extension thereof, all or a substantial part of the Demised Premises are taken for any public or quasi-public use [ILLEGIBLE] any governmental law, ordinance or regulation or by right of eminent domain, or are conveyed to the condemning authority under threat of condemnation, this Lease shall terminate and the monthly installments of Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of the Lease Term, effective from the date of the taking. If less than a substantial part of the Demised Premises is taken for public or quasi-public use under any governmental law ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or is conveyed to the condemning authority under threat of concentration, Landlord shall promptly, at Landlord's expense, restore and reconstruct the buildings and improvements (other than leasehold improvements made by Tenant or any assignee, subtenant or other occupant of the Demised Premises) situated on the Demised Premises in order to make the same reasonably tenantable and suitable for the use for which the Demised Premises is leased as defined in Section 6.01. The monthly installments of Rent payable under this Lease during the unexpired portion of the Lease Term shall be adjusted equitably. Landlord and Tenant shall each be entitled to receive and retain such separate awards and portions of lump sum awards as may be allocated to their respective interests in any condemnation proceeding. The termination of this Lease shall not affect the rights of the parties to such awards. As used herein, the phrase "less than a substantial part of the Demised Premises" shall mean a part of the Demised Premises that, if taken or after being restored or reconstructed by Landlord, will not prevent Tenant from fully occupying the Demised Premises and conducting its normal business operations therein. ARTICLE TEN: ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord not to be unreasonably withheld, assign this Lease or sublet the Demised Premises or any portion thereof. Any assignment or subletting shall be expressly subject to all terms and provisions of this Lease, including the provisions of Section 6.01 pertaining to the use of the Demised Premises. In the event of any assignment or subletting, Cerprobe Corporation shall remain fully liable for the full performance of all Tenants obligations under this Lease. Tenant shall not assign its rights under this Lease or sublet the Demised Premises without first obtaining a written agreement from the assignee or sublessee whereby the assignee or sublessee agrees to assure the obligations of Tenant under this Lease and to be bound by the terms of this Lease. If an event of default occurs while the Demised Premises is assigned or sublet, Landlord may, at Landlord's option, in addition to any other remedies provided in this Lease or by law, collect directly from the assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due under the terms of the assignment or subletting and apply the rent against any sums due to Landlord under this Lease. No direct collection by Landlord from any assignee or subtenant will release Tenant from Tenant's obligations under this Lease. The following shall be deemed to be reasonable under Paragraph 10 of this Lease hereunder and shall be permitted without the consent of the Landlord: (i) any merger, consolidation or other combination of Tenant with or into another entity, (ii) a sale, assignment, pledge, transfer, exchange or other disposition in a single transaction or in a series of transactions of the stock of Tenant or any entity which directly or indirectly controls Tenant, or (iii) any direct or indirect change in control of Tenant, provided, the surviving entity in any merger, consolidation or other combination or the purchase or other transfer of the stock of Tenant shall assume and agree in writing to perform the obligations of Tenant under this Lease as if it were an assignee or sublessee, and (iv) any assignment or sublease of all or any portion of the Demised Premises to an entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant. As used herein, "control" shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management policies of such person or entity whether through the ownership of voting securities, or other interests, by contract or otherwise. Cerprobe Corporation shall remain fully liable for the full performance of all Tenant's obligations under the Lease. ARTICLE ELEVEN: DEFAULT AND REMEDIES 11.01. Default. Each of the following events is an event of default under this Lease: A. Failure of Tenant to pay any installment of the Rent on the day that it is due or any other sum payable to Landlord under this Lease on the date that it is due and the continuance of such failure for a period of five (5) days after Landlord delivers written notice of the failure to Tenant. This clause shall not be construed to permit or allow a delay in paying Rent beyond the due date and shall not affect Landlord's right to impose a Late Charge as permitted in Section 3.03. B. Failure of Tenant to comply with any term, condition or covenant of this Lease, other than the payment of Rent or other sum of money, and the continuance of that failure for a period of thirty (30) days after Landlord delivers written notice of the failure to Tenant; provided, if the nature of the default is such that it cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, then so long as Tenant has commenced the cure within such thirty (30) days period and is diligently pursuing the same, the cure period shall be extended for such additional time as is reasonably necessary to complete the cure, up to, but not exceeding, an additional thirty (30) days after the end of the initial thirty (30) day cure period. C. Failure of Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations under this Lease to pay its debts as they become due or an admission in writing of inability to pay its debts, or the making of a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; D. The commencement by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations under this Lease of any case, proceeding or other action seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or any substantial part of its property; E. The commencement of any case, proceeding or other action against Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations under this Lease seeking to have an order for relief entered against it as debtor, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or any substantial part of its property, and Tenant or any guarantor: (i) fails to obtain a dismissal of such case, proceeding, or other action within sixty (60) days of its commencement; or (ii) converts the case from one chapter of the Federal Bankruptcy Code to another chapter; or (iii) is the subject of an order of relief which is not fully stayed within seven (7) business days after the entry thereof; and Page 7 18 11.02. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any of the events of default listed in Section 11.01, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any [Illegible] or demand. A. Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Demised Premises to Landlord. If Tenant fails to so surrender the Demised Premises, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy contained herein which it may have for possession of the Demised Premises or Rent in arrears, enter upon and take possession of the Demised Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Demised Premises or any part thereof, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the amount of all loss and damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of the termination, whether through inability to re-let the Demised Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise. B. Enter upon and take possession of the Demised Premises, by force if necessary, without terminating this Lease and without being liable for prosecution or for any claim for damages, and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Demised Premises or any part thereof. Landlord may re-let the Demised Premises and receive the rent therefor. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord monthly or on demand from time to time any deficiency that may arise by reason of any such re-letting. In determining the amount of the deficiency, the professional service fees, attorneys' fees, court costs, remodeling expenses and other costs of re-letting shall be subtracted from the amount of rent received under the re-letting. C. Enter upon the Demised Premises, by force if necessary, without terminating this Lease and without being liable for prosecution or for any claim for damages, and do whatever Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord on demand for expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenant's obligations under this Lease, together with interest thereon at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum from the date expended until paid. Unless caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to Tenant from such action, whether caused by negligence of Landlord or otherwise. E. In addition to the foregoing remedies, Landlord shall have the right to change or modify the locks on the Demised Premises in the event Tenant fails to pay the monthly installment of Rent when due. Landlord shall not be obligated to provide another key to Tenant or allow Tenant to regain entry to the Demises Premises unless and until Tenant pays Landlord all Rent which is delinquent. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to the Tenant from the lockout. At such time that Landlord changes or modifies the lock, Landlord shall post a "Notice of Change of Locks" on the front of the Demised Premises. Such Notice shall state that: (1) Tenant's monthly installment of Rent is delinquent, and therefore, under authority of Section 11.02.E of Tenant's Lease, the Landlord has exercised its contractual right to change or modify Tenant's door locks; (2) The Notice has been posted on the Tenant's front door by a representative of Landlord and Tenant should make arrangements with the representative to pay the delinquent installments of Rent when Tenant picks up the key; and (3) The failure of Tenant to comply with the provisions of the Lease and the Notice and/or tampering with or changing the door lock(s) by Tenant may subject Tenant to legal liability. F. No re-entry or taking possession of the Demised Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of that intention is given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any such re-letting or re-entry or taking possession, Landlord may, at any time thereafter, elect to terminate this Lease for a previous default. Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any other remedies provided by law, nor shall pursuit of any remedy provided in this Lease constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any monthly installment of Rent due to Landlord under this Lease or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms, provisions and covenants contained in this Lease. Failure of Landlord to declare any default immediately upon its occurrence, or failure to enforce one or more of Landlord's remedies, or forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of Landlord's remedies upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of default or waiver of any violation or breach of the terms of this Lease. Pursuant of any one of the above remedies shall not preclude pursuit by Landlord of any of the other remedies provided in this Lease. The loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of termination of this Lease or the deficiency from any re-letting as provided for above shall include the expense of repossession and any repairs or remodeling undertaken by Landlord following possession. If Landlord terminates this Lease at any time for any default, in addition to other Landlord's remedies, Landlord may recover from Tenant all damages Landlord may incur by reason of the default, including the cost of recovering the Demised Premises and the Rent then remaining unpaid. 11.03. NOTICE OF DEFAULT. Tenant shall give written notice of any failure by Landlord to perform any of Landlord's obligations under this Lease to Landlord and to any ground lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary under any deed of trust encumbering the Demised Premises whose name and address have been furnished to Tenant in writing. Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease unless Landlord (or such ground lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary) fails to cure the nonperformance within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant's notice. However, if the nonperformance reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days to cure, Landlord shall not be in default if the cure is commenced within the 30-day period and is thereafter diligently pursued to completion. 11.04. LIMITATION OF LANDLORD'S LIABILITY. As used in this Lease, the term "Landlord" means only the current owner or owners of the fee title to the Demised Premises or the leasehold estate under a ground lease of the Demised Premises at the time in question. Each Landlord is obligated to perform the obligations of Landlord under this Lease only during the time such Landlord owns such interest or title. Any Landlord who transfers its title or interest is relieved of all liability with respect to the obligations of Landlord under this Lease accruing on or after the date of transfer, and Tenant agrees to recognize the transferee as Landlord under this Lease subject to Article 10 hereof. However, each Landlord shall deliver to its transferee the Security Deposit held by Landlord if such Security Deposit has not then been applied under the terms of this Lease. Page 8 19 ARTICLE TWELVE: LANDLORD'S CONTRACTUAL LIEN In addition to the statutory Landlord's lien, Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a security interest to secure payment of all Rent and other sums of money becoming due under this Lease from Tenant upon all inventory, goods, wares, equipment, fixtures, furniture and all other personal property of Tenant situated in or upon the Demised Premises, together with the proceeds from the sale or lease thereof. Tenant may not remove such property without the consent of Landlord until all Rent in arrears and other sums of money then due to Landlord under this Lease have first been paid and discharged. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided in this Lease or by law, enter upon the Demised Premises and take possession of any and all goods, wares, equipment, fixtures, furniture and other personal property of Tenant situated on the Demised Premises without liability for trespass or conversion and sell the property at public or private sale, with or without having the property at the sale, after giving Tenant reasonable notice of the time and place of any such sale. Unless otherwise required by law, notice to Tenant of the sale shall be deemed sufficient if given in the manner prescribed in this Lease at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale. Any public sale made under this Article shall be deemed to have been conducted in a commercially reasonable manner if held on the Demised Premises or where the property is located, after the time, place and method of sale and a general description of the types of property to be sold have been advertised in a daily newspaper published in the county where the Demised Premises is located for five (5) consecutive days before the date of the sale. Landlord or its assigns may purchase at a public sale and, unless prohibited by law, at a private sale. The proceeds from any disposition dealt with in this Article, less any and all expenses connected with the taking of possession, holding and selling of the property (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses), shall be applied as a credit against the indebtedness secured by the security interest granted herein. Any surplus shall be paid to Tenant or as otherwise required by law, and Tenant shall promptly pay any deficiencies. The statutory lien for rent is expressly reserved; the security interest herein granted is in addition and supplementary thereto. Provided Tenant is not in default under any of the terms of this Lease, upon written request by Tenant Landlord shall deliver a written subordination of Landlord's statutory and contractual liens to any liens and security interests securing any financing of Tenant. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay the delivery of Landlord's written subordination. ARTICLE THIRTEEN: PROTECTION OF LENDERS 13.01. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT. Landlord shall have the right to subordinate this Lease to any existing future ground Lease, deed of trust or mortgage encumbering the Demised Premises (a "mortgage") and advances made on the security thereof and any renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements or extensions thereof, whenever made or recorded. Landlord's right to obtain such a subordination is subject to Landlord's providing Tenant with a written Subordination, Non-disturbance and Attornment Agreement from the ground lessor, beneficiary or mortgagee wherein Tenant's right to peaceable possession of the Demised Premises during the Lease Term shall not be disturbed if Tenant pays the Rent and performs all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease and is not otherwise in default, in which case Tenant shall attorn to the transferee of or successor to Landlord's interest in the Demised Premises and recognize the transferee or successor as Landlord under this Lease, and further providing that such lessor, beneficiary or mortgagee shall at all times recognize Tenant's rights under this Lease, including making insurance and condemnation proceeds available to Landlord and/or Tenant for reconstruction or repair of the Demised Premises after a casualty or condemnation so long as this Lease is not terminated by Landlord or Tenant as provided in Articles 8 or 9 hereof. If any ground lessor, beneficiary or mortgagee elects to have this Lease superior to the lien of its ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage and gives Tenant written notice thereof, this Lease shall be deemed superior to the ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage whether this Lease is dated prior or subsequent to the date of the ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage or the date of recording thereof. 13.02. SIGNING OF DOCUMENTS. Tenant shall sign and deliver any reasonable instruments or documents necessary or appropriate to evidence any attornment or subordination or any agreement to attorn or subordinate. 13.03. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. A. Upon Landlord's written request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord a written statement certifying (to the extent accurate); (1) whether Tenant is an assignee or subtenant; (2) the expiration date of the Lease; (3) the number of renewal options under the lease and the total period of time covered by the renewal option(s); (4) that none of the terms or provisions of the Lease have been changed since the original execution of the Lease, except as shown on attached amendments or modifications; (5) that no default by Landlord exists under the terms of the Lease (or if Landlord is claimed to be in default, stating why); (6) that the Tenant has no claim against the landlord under the Lease and has no defense or right of offset against collection of rent or other charges accruing under the Lease; (7) the amount and date of the last payment of Rent; (8) the amount of any security deposits and other deposits, if any; and (9) the identity and address of any guarantor of the lease. Tenant shall deliver the statement to Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlord's request. Landlord may forward any such statement to any prospective purchaser or lender of the Demised Premises. The purchaser or lender may rely conclusively upon the statement as true and correct. B. If Tenant does not deliver the written statement to Landlord within the twenty (20) day period, Landlord, and any prospective purchaser or lender, may conclusively presume and rely upon the following facts: (1) that the terms and provisions of this Lease have not been changed except as otherwise represented by Landlord; (2) that this Lease has not been canceled or terminated except as otherwise represented by Landlord; (3) that not more than one monthly installment of Base Rent and other charges have been paid in advance; (4) there are no claims against Landlord nor any defenses or rights of offset against collection of Rent or other charges; and (5) that Landlord is not in default under this Lease. In such event, Tenant shall be estopped from denying the truth of the presumed facts. 13.04. TENANT'S FINANCIAL CONDITION. Within ten (10) days after written request from Landlord and no more frequently than once every twelve months, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord financial statements as are reasonably required by Landlord in Tenant's possession to verify the net worth of Tenant, or any assignee, subtenant, or guarantor of Tenant. In addition, Tenant shall deliver to any lender designated by Landlord any financial statements required by the lender to facilitate the financing or refinancing of the Demised Premises. All financial statements shall be confidential and shall be used only for the purposes set forth in this lease. Page 9 20 ARTICLE FOURTEEN: ENVIRONMENTAL REPRESENTATION AND INDEMNIFICATION 14.01 Tenant's Compliance with Environmental Laws. Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall comply with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances, directions, regulations and requirements of Federal, State, county and municipal authorities pertaining to Tenant's use of the Property, and with the recorded covenants, conditions and restrictions, regardless of when they become effective, including without limitation, all applicable Federal, State and local laws, regulations or ordinances pertaining to air and water quality.

The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. 14.05 Definition.

Landlord and Tenant understand that a real estate broker is qualified to advise on matters concerning real estate and is not expert in matters of law, tax, financing, surveying, hazardous materials, engineering, construction, safety, zoning, land planning, architecture or the ADA. The Brokers hereby advise Tenant to seek expert assistance on such matters. Brokers do not investigate a property's compliance with building codes, governmental ordinances, statutes and laws that relate to the use or condition of a property and its construction, or that relate to its acquisition. If Brokers provide names of consultants or sources for advice or assistance, Tenant acknowledges that the Brokers do not warrant the services of the advisors or their products and cannot warrant the suitability of property to be acquired or leased. Furthermore, the Brokers do not warrant that the Landlord will disclose any or all property defects, although the Brokers will disclose to Tenant any actual knowledge possessed by Brokers regarding defects of the Demised Premises and the Property. In this regard, Tenant agrees to make all necessary and appropriate inquiries and to use diligence in investigating the Demised Premises and the Property before consummating this Lease. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to indemnify, defend, and hold the Brokers harmless of and from any and all liabilities, claims, debts, damages, costs, or expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs, related to or arising out of or in any way connected to representations concerning matters properly the subject of advice by experts. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Brokers' liability for errors or omissions, negligence, or otherwise, is limited to the return of the Fee, if any, paid to the Brokers pursuant to this Lease. Page 11 22 16.02. FORCE MAJEURE. If performance by Landlord or Tenant of any term, condition or covenant in this Lease is delayed or prevented by any act of God, strike, lockout, shortage of material or labor, restriction by any governmental authority, civil riot or any other cause not within the control of landlord or Tenant, the period for performance of the term, condition or covenant shall be extended for a period equal to the period Landlord or Tenant is so delayed or prevented. 16.03. INTERPRETATION. The captions of the Articles or Sections of this Lease are to assist the parties in reading this Lease and are not a part of the terms or provisions of this Lease. Tenant shall be responsible for the conduct, acts and omissions of Tenant's agents, employees, customers, contractors, invitees, agents, successors or others using the Demised Premises with Tenant's expressed or implied permission. Whenever required by the context of this Lease, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular, and the masculine, feminine and neuter genders shall each include the other. 16.04. WAIVERS. All waivers to provisions of this Lease must be in writing and signed by the waiving party. Landlord's delay or failure to enforce any provisions of this Lease or its acceptance of late installments of Rent shall not be a waiver and shall not prevent Landlord from enforcing that provision or any other provision of this Lease in the future. No statement on a payment check from Tenant or in a letter accompanying a payment check shall be binding on Landlord. Landlord may, with or without notice to Tenant, negotiate, cash, or endorse the check without being bound to the conditions of any such statement. 16.05. SEVERABILITY. A determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision of this Lease is invalid or unenforceable shall not cancel or invalidate the remainder of that provision or this Lease, which shall remain in full force and effect. 16.06. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. All parties signing this Lease as Tenant shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations of Tenant. 16.07. AMENDMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS.

Notices may be transmitted by Fax to the Fax telephone numbers specified in Article One on the first page of this Lease, if any. Notices delivered by mail must be deposited in the U.S. Postal Service, first class postage prepaid, and properly addressed to the intended recipient as set forth in Article One. After possession of the Demised Premises by Tenant, Tenant's address for notice purposes will be the address of the Demised Premises unless Tenant notifies Landlord in writing of a different address to be used for that purpose. Any party may change its address for notice by delivering written notice of its new address to all other parties in the manner set forth above. 16.09. ATTORNEYS' FEES. If on account of any breach or default by any party to this Lease in its obligations to any other party to this Lease becomes necessary for a party to employ an attorney to enforce or defend any of its rights or remedies under this Lease, the non-prevailing party agrees to pay the prevailing party its reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs, if any, whether or not suit is instituted in connection with the enforcement or defense. 16.10. VENUE. All obligations under this Lease shall be performed and payable in the county in which the Property is located. The laws of the State of Texas shall govern this Lease. 16.11. SURVIVAL.

During the Lease Term, Tenant shall maintain, at Tenant's expense, comprehensive general liability insurance (including personal injury liability, premises/operation, property damage, independent contractors and broad form contractual in support of the indemnifications of Landlord by Tenant under this Lease), business interruption insurance, contractual liability insurance, worker's compensation and employer's liability insurance and comprehensive catastrophe liability, all maintained with companies, on forms and in such amounts as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require and endorsed to include Landlord as an additional insured, with the premiums being fully paid on or before the due dates, insuring Landlord against liability arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy, or maintenance of the Demised Premises. The initial amounts of the insurance must be at least $1,000,000 for Each Occurrence, $2,000,000 General Aggregate per policy year, $100,000 Property Damage for the Demised Premises, and $10,000 Medical Expense; plus a $5,000,000 commercial general liability umbrella; and shall be subject to periodic increases based upon economic factors as Landlord may determine, in Landlord's discretion, exercised in good faith. However, the amounts of the insurance shall not limit Tenant's liability nor relieve Tenant of any obligation under this Lease. The policies must contain cross-liability endorsements, if applicable, and must insure Tenant's performance of the indemnity provisions of Section 5.04. The policies must contain a provision which prohibits cancellation or modification of the policy except upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant shall deliver a copy of the policy or certificate (or a renewal) to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date and prior to the expiration of the policy during the Lease Term. If Tenant fails to maintain the policy, Landlord may elect to maintain the insurance at Tenant's expense, which Tenant shall reimburse to Landlord upon demand. Tenant may, at Tenant's expense, maintain other liability insurance as Tenant deems necessary. The rental rate shall increase at 2% as follows: 1, 2001 $367,738.56 ($30,644.88 per month) 1, 2002 $375,093.33 ($31,257.78 per month) 1, 2003 $382,595.20 ($31,882.93 per month) 1, 2004 $390,247.10 ($32,520.59 per month) 1, 2005 $398,052.04 ($33,171.00 per month) 1, 2006 $406,013.00 ($33,834.42 per month) 1, 2007 $414,133.35 ($34,511.11 per month) 1, 2008 $422,416.01 ($35,201.33 per month) 1, 2009 $430,864.33 ($35,905.36 per month) 2010 SAME " 2011 SAME " LANDLORD TENANT Assurance Capital, Inc.

Page 13 24 NORTH TEXAS COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS(R) ADDENDUM B TO LEASE RENEWAL OPTIONS Demised Premises/Address: 10365 Sanden Drive, Dallas, Dallas County, Texas A. OPTION TO EXTEND TERM. Landlord grants to Tenant two (2) option(s) (the "Option") to extend the Lease Term for an additional term of five (5) years each (the "Extension"), on the same terms, conditions and covenants set forth in this Lease, except as provided below. Each Option may be exercised only by written notice delivered to the Landlord no later than one hundred eighty (180) days before, the expiration of the Lease Term or the preceding Extension of the Lease Term, whichever is applicable. If Tenant fails to deliver Landlord written notice of the exercise of an Option within the prescribed time period, such Option and any succeeding Options shall lapse, and there shall be no further right to extend the Lease Term. Each Option may only be exercised by Tenant on the express condition that, at the time of the exercise, Tenant is not in default under any of the provisions of this Lease. The foregoing Options are personal to Tenant and may not be exercised by an assignee or subtenant without Landlord's written consent. B. CALCULATION OF RENT. The Base Rent during the Extension(s) shall be determined by one of the following methods [check one]: [ ] 1. Consumer Price Index Adjustment. The monthly Base Rent during the Extension shall be determined by multiplying the monthly installment of Base Rent during the last month of the Lease Term by a fraction determined as follows: a. The numerator shall be the Latest Index which means either [check one]: [ ] (1) the Index published for the nearest calendar month preceding the first day of the Extension, or [ ] (2) the Index for the month of _______________ preceding the Extension. b. The denominator shall be the Initial Index which means either [check one]: [ ] (1) the Index published for the nearest calendar month preceding the Commencement Date, or [ ] (2) the Index for the month of _________________ preceding the Commencement Date. [If no blanks are filled in above, the choice (1) including the phrase, "the nearest calendar month preceding," shall apply.] c. The Index means the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for All Urban Consumers (All Items) U.S. City Average (unless this box is checked [ ] in which case the CPI for the Dallas/Fort Worth Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area shall be used) published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (Base Index of 1982-84 = 100). If the Index is discontinued or revised, the new index or computation which replaces the Index shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would have been obtained if it had not been discontinued or revised. If such computation would reduce the Rent for the particular Extension, it shall be disregarded, and the Rent during the immediately preceding period shall apply instead. [ ] 2. FAIR MARKET RENTAL VALUE. The Base Rent during the Extension shall be the Fair market Rental determined as follows: a. The "Fair Market Rental" of the Demised Premises means the price that a ready and willing tenant would pay as of the commencement of the Extension as monthly rent to a ready and willing landlord of demised premises comparable to the Demised Premises if the property were exposed for lease on the open market for a reasonable period of time, and taking into account the term of the Extension, the amount of improvements made by Tenant at its expense, the creditworthiness of the Tenant, and all of the purposes for which the property may be used and not just the use proposed to be made of the Demised Premises by Tenant. Upon proper written notice by Tenant to Landlord of Tenant's election to exercise the renewal Option, Landlord shall within fifteen (15) days thereafter notify Tenant in writing of Landlord's proposed Fair Market Rental amount and Tenant shall thereupon notify Landlord of Tenant's acceptance or rejection of Landlord's proposed amount. Failure of Tenant to reject Landlord's Fair Market Rental amount within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlord's notice shall be deemed Tenant's acceptance of Landlord's proposed Fair Market Rental amount. b. If Landlord and Tenant have not been able to agree on the Fair Market Rental amount prior to the date the option is required to be exercised, the rent for the Extension shall be determined as follows: Within thirty (30) days following the exercise of the option, Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor in good faith to agree upon a single Appraiser (defined below). If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon a single Appraiser within the thirty day period, each shall then appoint one Appraiser by written notice to the other, given within ten (10) days after the thirty day period. Within ten (10) days after the two Appraisers are appointed, the two Appraisers shall appoint a third Appraiser. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint its Appraiser within the prescribed time period the single Appraiser appointed shall determine the Fair Market Rental amount of the Demised Premises. Each party shall bear the cost of the appraiser appointed by it and the parties shall share equally the cost of the third appraiser. The term "Appraiser" means a State Certified Real Estate Appraiser licensed by the State of Texas to value commercial property. c. The Fair Market Rental Value of the Demised Premises shall be the average of two of the three appraisals which are closest in amount as described below, and the third appraisal shall be disregarded. In no event shall the Rent be reduced by reason of such computation. If the Fair Market Rental is not determined prior to the commencement of the Extension, then Tenant shall continue to pay to Landlord the Rent applicable to the Demised Premises immediately prior to the Extension until the Fair Market Rental amount is determined, and when it is determined, Tenant shall pay to Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice the difference between the Rent actually paid by Tenant to Landlord and the new Rent determined under this Lease. [ ] C. FIXED RENTAL ADJUSTMENTS. The monthly Base Rent shall be increased beginning on the following dates to these amounts: Date: 1, 2012 Amount: Fair market value with 2% annual increases. ---------------- ------------------------------------------- Date: 1, 2017 Amount: Fair market value with 2% annual increases. ---------------- ------------------------------------------- Date: Amount: ---------------- ------------------------------------------- Date: Amount: ---------------- ------------------------------------------- Page 14 25 FIRST AMENDMENT TO COMMERCIAL CONTRACT OF SALE This FIRST AMENDMENT TO COMMERCIAL CONTRACT OF SALE (this "Amendment") is made as of June 6, 2000, by and between Cerprobe Corporation ("Seller"') and Assurance Capital, Inc.
