Landlord hereby grants to Tenant, during the term of this Lease, the license to use, for the benefit of Tenant and its officers, agents, employees, customers, and invitees, in common with the others entitled to such use, the Common Areas as they from time to time exist, subject to the rights, powers, and privileges herein reserved to Landlord.

Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage, sublet, or otherwise transfer or encumber all of any part of Tenant's interest in this Lease or in the Premises without Landlord's prior written consent, which Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold. Any attempted assignment, transfer, mortgage, encumbrance, or subletting without such consent shall be void and shall constitute a breach of the Lease. Any transfer of Tenant's interest in this Lease or in the Premises from Tenant by merger, consolidation, or liquidation or by any subsequent change in the ownership of thirty (30%) percent or more of the capital stock of Tenant shall be deemed a prohibited assignment within the meaning of this Article 13. 13.2 NO RELEASE OF TENANT. Regardless of Landlord's consent, no subletting or assignment shall release Tenant of Tenant's obligation to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder for the term of this Lease. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof.

In the event that Landlord shall consent to a sublease or assignment under Article 13.1, Tenant shall pay Landlord reasonable fees not to exceed One Hundred and no/100th ($100,00) Dollars incurred in connection with giving such consent. 14.

(d) (i) The making by Tenant of any general assignment, or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors; (ii) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days. 14.2 REMEDIES IN DEFAULT. In the event of any such default or breach by Tenant, Landlord may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any right or remedy which Landlord may have by reason of such default or breach. (a) Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. In such event Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's default including, but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises; expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorney's fees, and any real estate commission actually paid; the worth at the time of award by the court having jurisdiction thereof of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of such award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the same period that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; and that portion of the leasing commission paid by Landlord applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease. Unpaid installments of rent or other sums shall bear interest from the date due at the rate of ten (10%) percent per annum. In the event Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises, Landlord shall have the option of (i) retaking possession of the Premises and recovering from Tenant the amount specified in this Article 14.2(a), or (ii) proceeding under Article 14.2(b). (b) Maintain Tenant's right to possession, in which case this Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises, in such event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes due hereunder. (c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under the laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Premises are located. 14.3 DEFAULT BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within a reasonable time, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to Tenant in writing, specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. 14.4 LATE CHARGES. Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within ten (10) days after written notice that said amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to ten (10%) percent of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant.

(PAGE 6 - MODIFIED NET) FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE THIS AGREEMENT, entered into as of this 10th day of May, 1985, between DEXTER AVENUE ASSOCIATES, a Washington general partnership ("Landlord"), and KORRY ELECTRONICS CO., a Division of Criton Technologies ("Tenant"), RECITALS A. Landlord and Tenant are parties to a Lease dated July 17, 1984 with respect to certain premises (the "Existing 901 Premises") located at 901 Dexter Avenue North, Seattle, Washington (the "901 Lease"), as described more particularly in the 901 Lease. B. The parties wish to expand the area of the Existing 901 Premises and extend and modify the Lease in certain other respects. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties covenant and agree as follows: 1. The 901 Lease is modified as follows: 1.1 The Existing 901 Premises are expanded to include the remainder of the building in which the Existing 901 Premises are located, other than the facility with the street address of 945 Dexter Avenue North. Thus added to the Existing 901 Premises are a facility with the street address of 925 Dexter Avenue North (the "925 Premises") and the shed which lies to the rear of the 925 Premises (collectively, the "Expanded 901 Premises"), effective as of September 1, 1985. 1.2 The monthly rental shall be increased to Nineteen Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($19,500), effective as of September 1, 1985. The $19,500 rental rate is predicated on the assumption that the usable area of the 925 Premises, exclusive of shed, is ten thousand (10,000) square feet. The actual area shall be measured in a manner acceptable to both parties, and the rent shall be adjusted by fifty cents ($.50) per square foot, upward or downward, as appropriate, to reflect any difference between the measured area and 10,000 square feet. In addition to Landlord's impovements specified herein, Landlord shall give Tenant a $10,000 credit against the September 1, 1985 rent for Tenant's renovation of the 925 Premises. 1.3 Landlord shall improve the 925 Premises in the same manner as is specified in paragraph 4 of Exhibit A to the 901 Lease; shall finish and paint the walls of the 925 Premises to match the Existing 901 Premises; shall upgrade the electrical system of the 925 Premises in the manner described in Exhibit 1 hereto; shall renovate the front of the 925 Premises to match the existing 901 Premises; and shall install a heating, ventilating and air conditioning system capable of satisfying the requirements of paragraph 5.11 of Exhibit A to the 901 Lease, all by no later than August 31, 1985. 1.4 Landlord shall build additional men's and women's restrooms on the first and second floors of the Extended 901 Premises and in the 925 Premises and shall completely renovation of the existing second floor men's and women's restrooms in the Existing 901 Premises, all in accordance with Tenant's specifications, by no later than August 31, 1985. All work performed by Landlord within the Existing 901 Premises shall be performed in a manner which minimizes its impact on Tenant's operations. The enclosure of the new bathrooms in the Existing 901 Premises shall be accomplished on a weekend. -1- 1.5 If the work specified in paragraphs 1.3 and 1.4 hereof is not completed by September 1, 1985 and a permanent certificate of occupancy for the Expanded 901 Premises has not been obtained by such date, then Tenant shall receive a $l0,000-per-month credit against rent for each such month or partial month period that completion of the work or the obtaining of the certificate is delayed. 1.6 Landlord shall be required to provide Tenant with the following parking on an exclusive basis without additional charge: forty (40) spaces in the lot lying to the north of the Premises; fifty (50) spaces in the two lots currently leased by Landlord on Aurora Avenue; and, if Landlord acquires Lots 7 and 8, Block 21, which lie between the Aurora Avenue parking lots, all parking spaces on such new site. These parking areas are depicted on Exhibit 2 hereto. Landlord has indicated its intention to construct a facility, including parking garage, on property which includes the lot to the north of the Premises which presently affords Tenant forty (40) parking spaces. If Landlord proceeds to develop the parking garage, it shall provide Tenant, during the construction period, with forty (40) substitute parking spaces in close proximity to the Premises and shall provide Tenant with one hundred twenty (120) spaces in the parking garage once construction thereof has been completed. 2. The duration of the 901 Lease is modified as follows: 2.1 The basic Lease term is extended through August 31, 1990. 2.2 Paragraph 1 of Exhibit A to the 901 Lease is deleted in its entirety. Tenant shall have an option to extend the term of the 901 Lease for up to ten (10) consecutive two (2) year periods. To exercise a renewal option, Tenant must give Landlord written notice thereof not less than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the end of the lease term then in effect. If Tenant fails to exercise a renewal option with respect to the 901 Lease, all subsequent renewal options with respect to the 901 Lease shall terminate. 2.3 If the first renewal option is exercised under the 901 Lease, then the monthly rent for the first renewal period shall be the monthly rent payable during the base period, increased by the percentage increase in the cost of living, as indicated by the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers - All Items, for the Seattle Metropolitan Area, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics (the "Index") during the immediately preceding twelve (12) month period, up to a maximum percentage increase of two and one-half percent (2-1/2%). If subsequent renewal options are exercised, then the monthly rent for each such renewal period shall be equal to the monthly rent payable during the prior renewal period, increased by the percentage increase in the Index during the prior two (2) year period, up to a maximum percentage increase of two and one-half percent (2-1/2%) in any one year and a maximum of five percent (5%) increase for the two-year period. (By way of illustration only, if the monthly rent under the 901 Lease were $20,000 for the September 1, 1990 - August 31, 1992 period and the Index increased four percent (4%) during the September 1, 1990 - August 31, 1991 period and one percent (1%) during the September 1, 1991 - August 31, 1992 period, then the monthly rent for the September 1, 1992 - August 31, 1994 period would be increased by three and one-half percent (3-1/2%), or Seven Hundred Dollars ($700.00), based on the 2-1/2% ceiling for the increase in the September 1, 1990 - August 31, 1991 period and the actual 1% increase during the following twelve-month period.) If the Index is discontinued, -2- the parties shall substitute a comparable index of consumer prices. 3. This is made expressly contingent upon Tenant and 801 Dexter Associates executing a first amendment to their lease extending the term thereof in the same manner as is described in paragraph 2 above. If such amendment has not been executed by May 15, 1985, then this Amendment shall terminate, unless Tenant waives such contingency. 4. The parties shall promptly execute and record a memorandum of the 901 Lease. 5. The 901 Lease shall otherwise continue in full force and effect as written. 6. If after the date hereof, Landlord intends to offer for lease any other portion of the real property of which the Expanded 901 Premises forms a part at the date of execution of this First Amendment to Lease, it shall not do so without first offering such premises to Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant are not able to reach agreement thereon within 60 days, the Landlord may proceed to offer such premises to a third party. If Landlord receives a lease proposal from a third party which Landlord wishes to accept, it shall not accept such without first providing Tenant with a copy of such offer and offering to lease such premises to Tenant on the same terms and conditions. If the Tenant does not accept such proposal within five days of its receipt thereof, the Landlord shall be free to enter into the lease with the third party on the offered terms and conditions. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this First Amendment as of the day and year first above written.

B. Landlord is obligated to Tenant for certain sums in connection with the Lease, and the parties wish to modify the Lease to deal with that and related matters. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties covenant and agree as follows: 1. Landlord acknowledges that it is indebted to Tenant in the amount of one Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000), and that it has requested that Tenant pay Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) of the cost of the improvements described in Exhibit 1 hereto (the "Improvements"). In consideration of Tenant's agreement to forgive the $150,000 and to advance $75,000 of the Improvement costs, as and when due, Landlord agrees that: 1.1 The monthly rental due under the Lease is reduced to Fourteen Thousand Four Hundred Ninety Five Dollars ($14,495) per month, commencing on August 1, 1936 and continuing at such rate through July 31, 1991; and l.2 The basic Lease term is extended through July 31, 1991; 2.

Landlord agrees that it will pay the first Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) of the cost of the Improvements and, in addition, all costs and expenses of the Improvements in excess of the first One Hundred and Twenty Five Thousand (6/17/86) -1- Dollars ($125,000). These sums will be paid by permitting Tenant to offset against the rents next accruing under the Lease the first $50,000 paid by Tenant in costs and expenses in connection with the construction of the Improvements and for all costs and expenses of the Improvements in excess of $125,000, as such costs and expenses are incurred. Tenant shall present Landlord on each' rental payment date hereafter with a schedule reflecting the Improvements costs incurred by Tenant during the preceding month and shall reduce the rental payment by the total thereof until such time as it has been reimbursed for the $50,000 in Improvements costs and for all costs and expenses of the Improvements in excess of $125,000. If Tenant's Improvements expenditures in any month exceed the rental amount due for the succeeding month, Tenant may deduct the excess from the next rent payment due from it thereafter. 4. If improvements to the 925 Premises (as described in the First Amendment to Lease) are not completed by July 31, 1986, then effective August 1, 1986 monthly rent shall be reduced by Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) per month to Nine Thousand Four Hundred Ninety-Five Dollars ($9,495) per month until such time as such improvements are completed and accepted by Tenant.

If such amendment has not been executed by June 23, 1986, then this Second Amendment shall terminate, unless Tenant waives such contingency. 7. If Landlord fails to perform its obligations under the Lease as required thereunder, Tenant may elect to do so on Landlord's behalf and offset the cost thereof against rents next coming due under the Lease or pursue any other remedy available to it at law or in equity for Landlord's default. 8.
