Landlord and Tenant covenant and agree as follows:
1.1 Delivery of Possession.
Should Landlord be unable to deliver possession of the Premises on the date fixed for the commencement of the term, commencement will be deferred and Tenant shall owe no rent until notice from Landlord tendering possession to Tenant. During the period from the scheduled Commencement Date to the actual Commencement Date, Tenant shall continue to occupy the Premises under the terms of its lease(s) and sublease(s) of the Premises (the “Current Lease”). If possession is not so tendered within 90 days following commencement of the term, then Tenant may elect to cancel this Lease by notice to Landlord within 10 days following expiration of the 90-day period. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for delay in delivering possession, nor shall such delay extend the term of this Lease in any manner unless the parties execute a written extension agreement.
2.1 Rent Payment.
Tenant shall pay the Base Rent for the Premises and any additional rent provided herein without deduction or offset. Rent for any partial month during the lease term shall be prorated to reflect the number of days during the month that Tenant occupies the Premises. Additional rent means amounts determined under Section 19 of this Lease and any other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease. Rent not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of one-and-one-half percent per month until paid. Landlord may at its option impose a late charge of $.05 for each $1 of rent for rent payments made more than 10 days late in lieu of interest for the first month of delinquency, without waiving any other remedies available for default. Failure to impose a late charge shall not be a waiver of Landlord’s rights hereunder.
3.1 Lease Consideration.
Upon execution of the Lease, Tenant has paid the Base Rent for the first full month of the lease term for which rent is payable and in addition has paid the sum of $76,391 as lease consideration in addition to the $39,382 Landlord is already holding. The total security deposit is $115,773. Landlord may apply the lease consideration to pay the cost of performing any obligation which Tenant fails to perform within the time required by this Lease, following any applicable notice and cure period, but such application by Landlord shall not be the exclusive remedy for Tenant’s default. If the lease consideration is applied by Landlord, Tenant shall on demand pay the sum necessary to replenish the lease consideration to its original amount. To the extent not applied by Landlord to cure defaults by Tenant, the lease consideration shall be applied to costs at the end of the Lease term, including but not limited to, repairs in excess of “normal wear and tear” and reconciliation of operating expenses. Any portion of the lease consideration not used to cover the end of term expenses shall be refundable. If Tenant is in default under this Lease more than two (2) times within any twelve-month period, irrespective of whether or not such default is cured, then without limiting Landlord’s other rights and remedies provided for in this Lease or at law or equity, the lease consideration shall automatically be increased by an amount equal to two (2) times the original lease consideration.

Tenant shall create no nuisance nor allow any objectionable fumes, noise, or vibrations to be emitted from the Premises.

Janitorial service will be provided in accordance with the specifications set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto. Tenant may elect, with 60 days notice, to provide their own janitorial service, and upon so doing, the Monthly Base Rental will be reduced by the amount of monthly charges incurred by the Landlord for the current janitorial service. Tenant agrees to use a janitorial contractor signatory to all applicable collective bargaining agreements. Tenant shall comply with all government laws or regulations regarding the use or reduction of use of utilities on the Premises.

Landlord shall have the right to erect scaffolding and other apparatus necessary for the purpose of making repairs, and Landlord shall have no liability for interference with Tenant’s use because of repairs and installations, provided that the same is performed in a manner to minimize interference with Tenant’s use, to the extent practicable, and completed as expeditiously as possible. Except as otherwise set forth herein, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for any interruption or reduction of services or interference with Tenant’s occupancy, and no such interruption or reduction shall be construed as a constructive or other eviction of Tenant. Repair of damage caused by negligent or intentional acts or breach of this Lease by Tenant, its employees or invitees shall be at Tenant’s expense.
6.2 Alterations.
Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions, or improvements to the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent which may be withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. The foregoing notwithstanding, Tenant may make cosmetic, non-structural changes, e.g., painting, floor covering, etc., without Landlord’s consent. Any such improvements, alterations, wiring, cables or conduit installed by Tenant shall at once become part of the Premises and belong to Landlord except for removable machinery and unattached movable trade fixtures. Landlord may at its option require that Tenant remove any improvements, alterations, wiring, cables or conduit installed by or for Tenant and restore the Premises to the original condition upon termination of this Lease. Tenant shall not be responsible for the restoration of any work done previous to the date this Lease is executed, except for the restoration of the 2nd floor elevator lobby and corridor.

7.1 Limitation of Liability.
The liability of Union Bank of California, Quest Investment Management Inc. and Quest Property Management with regard to all aspects of this Lease shall be limited to the assets of Quest Group Trust VI, except if such liability arises out of or is caused by Landlord’s negligence or willful misconduct, or its failure to enforce the rules and regulations following notice from Tenant.
7.2 Indemnity.
Tenant shall not allow any liens to attach to the Building or Tenant’s interest in the Premises as a result of its activities. Tenant shall indemnify and defend Landlord and its managing agents from any claim, liability, damage, or loss occurring on the Premises, arising out of any activity by Tenant, its agents, or invitees or resulting from Tenant’s failure to comply with any term of this Lease.

8.1 Fire or Casualty.
“Major Damage” means damage by fire or other casualty to the Building or the Premises which causes the Premises or any substantial portion of the Building to be unusable, or which will cost more than 25 percent of the pre-damage value of the Building to repair, or which is not covered by insurance. In case of Major Damage, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease by notice in writing to the Tenant within 30 days after such date. Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord within such thirty (30) day period if Landlord’s time to restore the Premises or the Building is estimated to take more than ninety (90) days or if, after having commenced the restoration of the Premises or the Building, Landlord fails to complete the same in the time period for completion stated prior to such commencement. If this Lease is not terminated following Major Damage, or if damage occurs which is not Major Damage, Landlord shall promptly restore the Premises to the condition existing just prior to the damage. Tenant shall promptly restore all damage to tenant improvements or alterations installed by Tenant or pay the cost of such restoration to Landlord if Landlord elects to do the restoration of such improvements. Unless the casualty was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, Rent shall be reduced from the date of damage until the date restoration work being performed by Landlord is substantially complete, with the reduction to be in proportion to the area of the Premises not useable by Tenant.
8.2 Waiver of Subrogation.
Tenant shall be responsible for insuring its personal property and trade fixtures located on the Premises and any alterations or tenant improvements it has made to the Premises. Neither Landlord, its managing agent nor Tenant shall be liable to the other for any loss or damage caused by water damage, sprinkler leakage, or any of the risks that are or could be covered by a special all risk property insurance policy, or for any business interruption, and there shall be no subrogated claim by one party’s insurance carrier against the other party arising out of any such loss. This waiver is binding only if it does not invalidate the insurance coverage of either party hereto.
9.1 Eminent Domain.
If a condemning authority takes title by eminent domain or by agreement in lieu thereof to the entire Building or a portion sufficient to render the Premises unsuitable for Tenant’s use, then either party may elect to terminate this Lease effective on the date that possession is taken by the condemning authority. Rent shall be reduced for the remainder of the term in an amount proportionate to the reduction in area of the Premises caused by the taking. All condemnation proceeds shall belong to Landlord, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or the condemnation award because of the taking; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent Tenant from pursuing and obtaining a separate award or awards for loss of its leasehold interest, leasehold improvements, moving expenses, and other claims.
10.1 Assignment and Subletting.
This Lease shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective heirs, successors, and assigns, provided that Tenant shall not assign its interest under this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the Premises without first obtaining Landlord’s consent in writing. This provision shall not apply to transfers by operation of law including, but not limited to, mergers and changes in control of Tenant. No assignment shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay rent or perform other obligations required by this Lease, and no consent to one assignment or subletting shall be a consent to any further assignment or subletting. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any assignment or subletting provided the effective rental paid by the subtenant or assignee is not less than the current scheduled rental rate of the Building for comparable space and the proposed Tenant is compatible with Landlord’s normal standards for the Building. If Tenant proposes a subletting or assignment to which Landlord is required to consent under this Section, Landlord shall have the option of terminating this Lease for that portion of the Premises proposed to be assigned or sublet and may lease the same directly to the proposed subtenant or assignee. If an assignment or subletting is permitted, one-half of any cash profit, or the net value of any other consideration received by Tenant as a result of such transaction shall be paid to Landlord promptly following its receipt by Tenant. Tenant shall pay any reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in connection with a request for assignment or subletting, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
11.1 Default.
Any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease:
  (a)   Tenant’s failure to pay rent or any other charge under this Lease within 10 days following written notice from Landlord of such nonpayment, or failure to comply with any other term or condition within 30 days following written notice from Landlord specifying the noncompliance. If such noncompliance cannot be cured within the 30-day period, this provision shall be satisfied if Tenant commences correction within such period and thereafter proceeds in good, faith and with reasonable diligence to effect compliance as soon as possible. The foregoing notwithstanding, Landlord shall be required to give Tenant the ten (10) day notice of nonpayment specified in the first sentence of this subsection (a) and only two (2) times in any consecutive twelve (12) month period. Time is of the essence of this Lease.
 
  (b)   Tenant’s insolvency, business failure or assignment for the benefit of its creditors. Tenant’s commencement of proceedings under any provision of any bankruptcy or insolvency law or failure to obtain dismissal of any petition filed against it under such laws within the time required to answer; or the appointment of a receiver for all or any portion of Tenant’s properties or financial records.
 
  (c)   Assignment or subletting by Tenant in violation of Section 10.1.
 
  (d)   Vacation or abandonment of the Premises without the written consent of Landlord or failure to occupy the Premises within 20 days after notice from Landlord tendering possession.
11.2 Remedies for Default.
In case of default as described in Section 11.1 Landlord shall have the right to the following remedies which are intended to be cumulative and in addition to any other remedies provided under applicable law:
  (a)   Landlord may at its option terminate the lease by notice to Tenant. With or without termination, Landlord may retake possession of the Premises and may use or relet the Premises without accepting a surrender or waiving the right to damages. Following such retaking of possession, efforts by Landlord to relet the Premises shall be sufficient if Landlord follows its usual procedures for finding tenants for the space at rates not less than the current rates for other comparable space in the Building. If Landlord has other vacant space in the Building, prospective tenants may be placed in such other space without prejudice to Landlord’s claim to damages or loss of rentals from Tenant.

  (b)   Landlord may recover all damages caused by Tenant’s default which shall include an amount equal to rentals lost because of the default, lease commissions paid for this Lease, and the unamortized cost of any tenant improvements installed by Landlord to meet Tenant’s special requirements. Landlord may sue periodically to recover damages as they occur throughout the lease term, and no action for accrued damages shall bar a later action for damages subsequently accruing. Landlord may elect in any one action to recover accrued damages plus damages attributable to the remaining term of the lease. Such damages shall be measured by the difference between the rent under this Lease and the reasonable rental value of the Premises for the remainder of the term, discounted to the time of judgement at the prevailing interest rate on judgements.
 
  (c)   Landlord may make any payment or perform any obligation which Tenant has failed to perform, in which case Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant upon demand all amounts so expended, plus interest from the date of the expenditure at the rate of one-and-one-half percent per month. Any such payment or performance by Landlord shall not waive Tenant’s default.
12.1 Surrender.
On expiration or early termination of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver all keys to Landlord and surrender the Premises vacuumed, swept, and free of debris and in the same condition as at the commencement of the term subject only to reasonable wear from ordinary use. Tenant shall remove all of its furnishings and trade fixtures that remain its property and repair all damage resulting from such removal. Failure to remove shall be an abandonment of the property, and Landlord may dispose of it in any manner without liability. If Tenant fails to vacate the Premises when required, including failure to remove all its personal property, Landlord may elect either: (i) to treat Tenant as a tenant from month to month, subject to the provisions of this Lease except that rent shall be one-and-one-half times the total rent being charged when the lease term expired, and any option or other rights regarding extension of the term or expansion of the Premises shall no longer apply; or (ii) to eject Tenant from the Premises and recover damages caused by wrongful holdover.
13.1 Regulations.
Landlord shall have the right but shall not be obligated to make, revise and enforce against all tenants of the Building regulations or policies consistent with this Lease for the purpose of promoting safety, health (including moving, use of common areas and prohibition of smoking), order, economy, cleanliness, and good service to all tenants of the Building. All such regulations and policies shall be complied with as if part of this Lease and failure to comply shall be a default, subject to notice and the opportunity to cure set forth in Section 11(a) hereof.
14.1 Access.
During times other than normal Building hours, Tenant’s officers and employees or those having business with Tenant may be required to identify themselves or show passes in order to gain access to the Building. Landlord shall have no liability for permitting or refusing to permit access by anyone. Landlord may regulate access to any Building elevators outside of normal Building hours. Landlord shall have the right to enter upon the Premises at any time by passkey or otherwise to determine Tenant’s compliance with this Lease, to perform necessary services, maintenance and repairs or alterations to the Building or the Premises, or to show the Premises to any prospective tenant or purchasers. Except in case of emergency, such entry shall be following notice and at such times and in such manner as to minimize interference with the reasonable business use of the Premises by Tenant, and shall be escorted by a representative of Tenant. Tenant shall have electronic access to all exterior doors.
14.2 Furniture and Bulky Articles.
Tenant shall move furniture and bulky articles in and out of the Building or make independent use of the elevators only at times approved by Landlord following at least 24 hours written notice to Landlord of the intended move. Landlord will not unreasonably withhold its consent under this Section.
15.1 Notices.
Notices between the parties relating to this Lease shall be in writing, effective when delivered, or if mailed, effective on the second day following mailing, postage prepaid, to the address for the party stated in this Lease or to such other address as either party may specify by notice to the other. Notice to Tenant may always be delivered to the Premises. Rent shall be payable to Landlord at the same address and in the same manner, but shall be considered paid only when received.
16.1 Subordination and Attornment.
This Lease shall be subject to and subordinate to any mortgages, deeds of trust, or land sale contracts (here after collectively referred to as encumbrances) now existing against the Building. Landlord shall obtain, not later than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the Commencement Date, a written agreement from the holder of all such encumbrances that such holder will not disturb Tenant’s tenancy under this Lease in the event of a foreclosure by the holder of such encumbrance. In the event such nondisturbance agreement(s) is/are not obtained within such period, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord and without further liability to Landlord. At Landlord’s option this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any future encumbrance hereafter placed against the Building (including the underlying land) or any modifications of existing encumbrances, and Tenant shall execute such documents as may reasonably be requested by Landlord or the holder of the encumbrance to evidence this subordination; provided, however, that such subordination shall be subject to the requirement that if any such encumbrance is foreclosed, the purchaser at foreclosure sale shall recognize and not disturb Tenant’s lease, and Tenant shall attorn to such purchaser and this Lease shall continue.
16.2 Transfer of Building.
If the Building is sold or otherwise transferred by Landlord or any successor, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser or transferee and recognize it as the lessor under this Lease, and, provided the purchaser or transferee assumes all obligations hereunder, the transferor shall have no further liability hereunder.

16.3   Estoppels.
Either party will within 10 days after notice from the other execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other party a certificate certifying whether or not this Lease has been modified and is in full force and effect; whether there are any modifications or alleged breaches by the other party; the dates to which rent has been paid in advance, and the amount of any security deposit or prepaid rent; and any other facts that may reasonably be requested. Failure to deliver the certificate within the specified time shall be conclusive upon the party of whom the certificate was requested that the lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified except as may be represented by the party requesting the certificate. If requested by the holder of any encumbrance, or any ground lessor, Tenant will agree to give such holder or lessor notice of and an opportunity to cure any default by Landlord under this Lease within thirty (30) days.
17.1 Attorneys’ Fees.
In any litigation arising out of this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover attorneys’ fees at trial and on any appeal. If Landlord incurs attorneys’ fees because of a default by Tenant, Tenant shall pay all such fees whether or not litigation is filed.
18.1 Quiet Enjoyment.
Landlord warrants that so long as Tenant complies with all terms of this Lease it shall be entitled to peaceable and undisturbed possession of the Premises free from any eviction or disturbance by Landlord. Neither Landlord nor its managing agent shall have any liability to Tenant for loss or damages arising out of the acts, including criminal acts, of other tenants of the Building or third parties, nor any liability for any reason which exceeds the value of its interest in the Building.
19.1 Additional Rent-Tax Adjustment.
Whenever for any July 1 — June 30 tax year the real property taxes levied against the Building and its underlying land exceed those levied for the 2005 — 2006 tax year, then the monthly rental for the next succeeding calendar year shall be increased by one-twelfth of such tax increase times Tenant’s Proportionate Share. “Real property taxes” as used herein means all taxes and assessments of any public authority against the Building and the land on which it is located, the cost of contesting any tax and any form of fee or charge imposed on Landlord as a direct consequence of owning or leasing the Premises, including but not limited to rent taxes, gross receipt taxes, leasing taxes, or any fee or charge wholly or partially in lieu of or in substitution for ad valorem real property taxes or assessments, whether now existing or hereafter enacted. If any portion of the Building is occupied by a tax-exempt tenant so that the Building has a partial tax exemption under ORS 307.112 or a similar statute, then real property taxes shall mean taxes computed as if such partial exemption did not exist. If a separate assessment or identifiable tax increase arises because of improvements to the Premises, then Tenant shall pay 100 percent of such increase. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, in the event any such taxes or assessments are payable in installments, Landlord shall elect to pay the same in installments over the longest possible period, and only such installments due and payable during the Lease term shall be considered “real property taxes” hereunder.
19.2 Operating Expense Adjustment.
Tenant shall pay as additional rent Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the amount by which operating expenses for the Building increase over those experienced by Landlord during the calendar year 2006 (base year). Effective January 1 of 2007 each year Landlord shall estimate the amount by which operating expenses are expected to increase, if any, over those incurred in the base year. Monthly rental for that year shall be increased by one-twelfth of Tenant’s share of the estimated increase. Following the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall compute the actual increase in operating expenses and bill Tenant for any deficiency or credit Tenant with any excess collected. As used herein “operating expenses” shall mean all costs of operating and maintaining the Building as determined by standard real estate accounting practice, including, but not limited to: all water and sewer charges; the cost of natural gas and electricity provided to the Building; janitorial and cleaning supplies and services; administration costs and management fees; superintendent fees; security services, if any; insurance premiums; licenses, permits for the operation and maintenance of the Building and all of its component elements and mechanical systems; the annual amortized capital improvement cost (amortized over such a period as Landlord may select but not shorter than the period allowed under the Internal Revenue Code and at a current market interest rate) for any capital improvements to the Building required by any governmental authority. Operating expenses shall not include: the cost of capital improvements (except as set forth above); depreciation; principal payments of mortgage and other non-operating debts of Landlord; the cost of repairs or other work to the extent Landlord is reimbursed by insurance or condemnation proceeds; costs in connection with leasing space in the Building, including brokerage commissions; lease concessions, rental abatements and construction allowances granted to specific tenants; costs incurred in connection with the sale, financing or refinancing of the Building; fines, interest and penalties incurred due to the late payment of taxes or expenses; organizational expenses associated with the creation and operation of the entity which constitutes Landlord; or any penalties or damages that Landlord pays to Tenant under this Lease or to other tenants in the Building under their respective leases.
19.3 Disputes.
If Tenant disputes any computation of additional rent or rent adjustment under Sections 19.1 and 19.2 of this Lease, it shall give notice to Landlord not later than one year after the notice from Landlord describing the computation in question, but in any event not later than 30 days after expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If Tenant fails to give such a notice, the computation by Landlord shall be binding and conclusive between the parties for the period in question. If Tenant gives a timely notice, the dispute shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant mutually agreed to by Landlord and Tenant, whose decision shall be conclusive between the parties. Each party shall pay one-half of the fee for making such determination except that if the adjustment in favor of Tenant does not exceed three percent (3%) of the escalation amounts for the year in question, Tenant shall pay (i) the entire cost of any such third-party determination; and (ii) Landlord’s out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses for personnel time in responding to the audit. In the event the adjustment in favor of Tenant equals or exceeds five percent (5%) of the escalation amounts for the year in question, Landlord shall pay (i) the entire cost of any such third party determination, and (ii) Tenant’s out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses for personnel time in connection with the audit. Nothing herein shall reduce Tenant’s obligations to make all payments as required by this Lease.

20.6 Renewal.
So long as this Lease is not, and has not been in default beyond any applicable notice and cure period during the Lease term, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Lease term for a period of five (5) years at “Fair Market Rent” by providing Landlord written notice of Tenant’s intent to exercise the renewal option at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the end of the initial Lease term (the “Exercise Notice”). “Fair Market Rent” shall mean the minimum rent being charged for comparable space in the Portland Oregon, metropolitan area with similar amenities and fixtures. Fair Market Rent shall be determined by Landlord with written notice (the “Notice”) given to Tenant not later than thirty (30) days after receipt of the Exercise Notice, subject to Tenant’s right to arbitration as hereinafter provided. If Tenant disputes the amount claimed by Landlord as Fair Market Rent, and Landlord and Tenant are not able to agree on the Fair Market Rent within ten (10) days of Tenant’s receipt of the Notice, Tenant may require that Landlord submit the dispute to arbitration. Failure on the part of Tenant to demand arbitration within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice from Landlord shall bind Tenant to the Fair Market Rent determined by Landlord. The arbitration shall be conducted and determined in Portland, Oregon in accordance with the then prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association or its successor for arbitration of real estate valuation disputes, except that the procedures mandated by such rules shall be modified as follows:
  (a)   Tenant shall make demand for arbitration in writing within thirty (30) days after service of the Notice, specifying the name and address of the person to act as arbitrator on Tenant’s behalf. The arbitrator shall be a real estate broker with at least ten (10) years full-time experience who is familiar with the Fair Market Rent of space similar to the Premises in Portland, Oregon. Within ten (10) business days after the service of Tenant’s demand for arbitration, Landlord shall give notice to Tenant specifying the name and address of the person designated by Landlord to act as arbitrator on Landlord’s behalf, which person shall be similarly qualified. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant of the appointment of Landlord’s arbitrator within the time specified, then the arbitrator appointed by Tenant shall be the arbitrator to determine the Fair Market Rent for the Premises.
 
  (b)   If two arbitrators are chosen, the arbitrators so chosen shall meet within ten (10) days after the second arbitrator is appointed and shall appoint a neutral arbitrator who shall be a competent and impartial person with qualifications similar to those required of the first two arbitrators. If they are unable to agree upon such appointment within five (5) days, the neutral arbitrator shall be selected by the presiding judge of the Washington County Circuit Court.
 
  (c)   The Fair Market Rent shall be fixed by the three arbitrators in accordance with the following procedures: Each party-appointed arbitrator shall state, in writing, such arbitrator’s determination of the Fair Market Rent supported by the reasons therefore and shall make counterpart copies for the other party-appointed arbitrator and the neutral arbitrator. The party-appointed arbitrators shall arrange for a simultaneous exchange of their proposed Fair Market Rent determinations. The role of the neutral arbitrator shall be to select whichever of the two proposed determinations of Fair Market Rent most closely approximates the neutral arbitrator’s own determination of Fair Market Rent. The neutral arbitrator shall have no right to propose a middle ground or any modification of either of the two proposed determinations of Fair Market Rent. The determination of Fair Market Rent the neutral arbitrator chooses as that most closely approximating the neutral arbitrator’s determination of the Fair Market Rent shall constitute the decision of the arbitrators and shall be final and binding upon the parties. The arbitrators shall have no power to modify the provisions of this Lease.
 
  (d)   The neutral arbitrator’s decision shall be made not later than thirty (30) days after the submission by the arbitrators of their proposals with respect to the Fair Market Rent. The parties have included these time limits in order to expedite

      the proceeding, but they are not jurisdictional, and the neutral arbitrator may for good cause allow reasonable extensions or delays, which shall not affect the validity of the award. Absent fraud, collusion, or willful misconduct by the neutral arbitrator, the award shall be final, and judgment may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
 
  (e)   Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its respective arbitrator and both parties shall share the fees and expenses of the neutral arbitrator equally.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the duly authorized representatives of the parties have executed this Lease as of the day and year first written above.
