1.PREMISES
1.1Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant the Land and the Building (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Premises”) as depicted onExhibit A-2 attached hereto. Tenant acknowledges that, except as set forth in this Lease or in the Work Letter, if any, neither Landlord nor any broker or agent has made any representations or warranties in connection with the physical condition of the Premises or their fitness for Tenant’s use upon which Tenant has relied directly or indirectly for any purpose. By taking possession of the Premises, Tenant accepts the Premises “AS-IS” and waives all claims of defect in the Premises, except as set forth in the Work Letter.
1.2 Common Area. Tenant may, subject to reasonable rules made by Landlord, use common facilities in the Project (“Common Area”) designated by Landlord from time to time for the common use of all tenants of the Project.
1.3Reserved Rights. Landlord reserves the right to enter the Premises at reasonable times upon reasonable notice to Tenant (or without notice in case of an emergency) and/or to undertake the following all without abatement of rent or liability to Tenant: inspect the Premises and/or the performance by Tenant of the terms and conditions hereof; make such alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises as required or permitted hereunder; change boundary lines of the Common Area; install, use, maintain, repair, alter, relocate or replace any pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, equipment and other facilities (including, without limitation, cabling and conduit for telecommunications facilities of any kind) in the Common Area or the Premises; grant easements on the Project, dedicate for public use portions thereof and record covenants, conditions and restrictions (including those certain “CC&Rs” defined in Section 11 below) affecting the Project and/or amendments to existing CC&Rs which do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises or impose additional material monetary obligations on Tenant; change the name of the Project; affix reasonable signs and displays; and, during the last nine (9) months of the Term, place signs for the rental of, and show the Premises to prospective tenants.
1.4Re-measurement of Premises. At Landlord’s option, prior to the delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant, Landlord shall cause Landlord’s architect to measure and certify in writing to Landlord the rentable square footage of the office portion of the Building and the Building in its entirety (as measured from the exterior drip line of the Building), and if such measurement differs from the rentable square footage of the Building and the office portion of the Building specified below, then all amounts under this Lease calculated on the basis of such rentable square footage (including, without limitation, the Base Rent) shall be adjusted accordingly within thirty (30) days thereafter, retroactive to the Commencement Date. In accordance with the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Monthly Base Rent amounts due Landlord hereunder are based upon the Building containing 144,690 rentable square feet of space (36,026 square feet of such area being office space including mezzanine). Therefore, if following the Substantial Completion of the Improvements Landlord determines that the Building’s total square footage and/or the office space located within the Building differs from the square footage stated above, the Monthly Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be adjusted hereunder.
2.TERM
2.1Commencement Date. Except as otherwise specifically provided below in this Section 2.1, the Term of the Lease shall commence (“Commencement Date”) on the first day of the first full month following the date on which Landlord delivers to Tenant the Premises Substantially Complete (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with the Work Letter attached hereto asExhibit B except that if Landlord delivers the Premises to Tenant on the first day of a month, that date shall be the Commencement Date, and the Lease shall continue in full force and effect for the period of time specified as the Term or until this Lease is terminated as otherwise provided herein. The Premises shall be deemed to be “Substantially Complete” on the earliest of the date on which: (1) Landlord files or causes to be filed with the City in which the Premises are located (if required) and delivers to Tenant an architect’s notice of substantial completion, or similar written notice that the Premises are substantially complete, and Landlord has completed all work under the Lease necessary so that the Premises may be lawfully occupied with respect to Landlord’s work under the Lease for the Permitted Uses, (2) Tenant commences business operations in the Premises, or (3) a certificate of occupancy (or a reasonably substantial equivalent such as a signoff
from a building inspector or a temporary certificate of occupancy) is issued for the Premises (or is ready to be issued other than for items installed or to be installed by Tenant under the Lease) and the Premises may be lawfully occupied with respect to Landlord’s work under the Lease for the Permitted Uses. Landlord shall arrange for the construction of the Improvements (as defined in the Work Letter) in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Work Letter. Tenant shall, upon demand after delivery of the Premises to Tenant, execute and deliver to Landlord a Commencement Date Memorandum in the form attached hereto asExhibit C acknowledging (i) the Possession Date, (ii) the Commencement Date, (iii) the Monthly Base Rent Schedule for the initial term, (iv) the final square footage of the Premises and (v) Tenant’s acceptance of the Premises. If the Premises are not Substantially Complete on the Estimated Commencement Date as extended by Force Majeure events and Tenant Delays (as defined in the Lease or Work Letter, if any), this Lease shall remain in effect, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Lease, and the Commencement Date shall be delayed, as hereinafter provided in this Section 2.1, until the date the Premises are Substantially Complete.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Premises have not been delivered to Tenant Substantially Complete on or before the Estimated Commencement Date for reasons other than Tenant Delays and/or Force Majeure Delays (which delays shall extend the Estimated Commencement Date), then Landlord will use best efforts to assist Tenant in locating temporary space of 50,000 square feet of contiguous, high-cube warehouse distribution space in the Portland Airport Way Submarket [Tenant shall be responsible for payment for such temporary space] for a period from June 1, 2006 to October 1, 2006 and if Landlord , or an affiliate has such warehouse space available in the Portland Airport Way Submarket, Landlord shall make such space available to Tenant at a base rental rate equal to the “Special Base Rate”. The “Special Base Rate” will be the average base rental rate of the five leases with the lowest effective rental rate in such Submarket for similar space executed in the prior twelve (12) month period.
If Landlord achieves Substantial Completion of the Premises following the Estimated Commencement Date (as extended to the extent of Tenant Delays and/or Force Majeure Delays) and prior to October 1, 2006, then:
(A) if Tenant elects to take possession of the entire Premises during this period, the Commencement Date shall be deemed to have occurred as of such date; or
(B) if Tenant does not elect to take possession of the entire Premises during this period then:
(i) Tenant shall nevertheless be obligated to take possession of the Office Portion of the Premises (as defined in the Work Letter attached hereto asExhibit B) (not the warehouse portion of the Building) and commence paying Base Rent with respect to the Office Portion of the Premises only (at the rate of $1.00 per square foot of office space [$36,026] per month) for the period of time prior to the Commencement Date, and commence paying that portion of the Additional Rent that relates to the Office Portion of the Building only (which portion shall be calculated by dividing the square footage of the Office Portion of the Building by the total square footage of the Building and multiplying the resulting percentage by the items of Additional Rent payable to Landlord for the entire Premises, provided, however, any item that pertains just to the Office Portion of the Building, such as utilities metered just to the Office Portion, would not be pro-rated).
(ii) Tenant shall not be required to take possession of the warehouse portion of the Building and, although the Lease will be effective, the Rent and other expenses attributable to the warehouse portion of the Building shall not commence and Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Base Rent, Additional Rent or other expenses attributable to the warehouse portion of the Building until the Commencement Date.
(iii) The Commencement Date hereunder shall not occur until the earlier of (x) Tenant’s occupancy of the entire Premises, or (y) the later of (a) October 1, 2006, or (b) the date the Premises is delivered to Tenant Substantially Complete in accordance with the terms of this Lease.
(iv) Landlord acknowledges and agrees that if Tenant occupies the Office Portion of the Premises (and not the warehouse portion of the Building) pursuant to the terms of clause (B)
-2-
above prior to October 1, 2006, Tenant shall receive a credit of $13,000 per month (“Rent Credit”) against the Base Rent payable to Landlord hereunder until the Commencement Date with respect to such Office Portion of the Premises, PLUS a further credit (“Additional Rent Credit”) against the Additional Rent payable to Landlord hereunder with respect to such Office Portion of the Premises until the Commencement Date, which Additional Rent Credit shall be calculated by dividing the square footage of the office space that Tenant is presently leasing from Landlord at 18550 N.E. Riverside Parkway-Building A, Portland, Oregon (pursuant to that certain Multi-Tenant Industrial Triple Net Lease, dated August 24, 2000) by the total square footage that Tenant is leasing from Landlord in such existing leased premises and multiplying the resulting percentage by the additional rent and other expenses being paid by Tenant under such existing lease. The Rent Credit and the Additional Rent Credit shall be available as long as base rent and additional rent are being paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Tenant’s lease of space located at 18550 NE Riverside Parkway-Building A.
2.2Possession. Tenant’s possession of the Premises, or a portion thereof, during the period of time, if any, from the date on which Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant Substantially Complete (the “Possession Date”) to the Commencement Date, shall be subject to all the provisions of this Lease and shall not advance the expiration date. Rent shall be paid for such period (at the rate stated in the Basic Lease Information as adjusted by the terms of the Work Letter and/or Section 2.1 above), prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month, and shall be due and payable to Landlord on or before the Commencement Date. Tenant shall upon demand acknowledge in writing the Possession Date in the form attached hereto asExhibit C.
2.3Early Entry. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 2.3, Tenant shall have the right to enter the Premises (but in no event earlier than sixty (60) days prior to the Possession Date) for the purpose of installing trade fixtures and equipment within the Premises, and such early entry for such purposes shall not constitute occupancy for operation of Tenant’s business and shall not trigger the Commencement Date. Landlord will sequence construction of the Building to permit Tenant the right of entry forty-five (45) days prior to the Possession Date although Landlord will use its good faith efforts to grant such entry sixty (60) days prior to the Possession Date. Tenant agrees (i) any such early entry by Tenant shall be at Tenant’s sole risk, (ii) Tenant shall not interfere with Landlord or Landlord’s contractors completing work within the Premises or cause any labor difficulties; Tenant, together with its employees, agents and independent contractors will be subject to and will work under the direction of Landlord’s contractor, (iii) Tenant shall comply with and be bound by all provisions of this Lease during the period of any such early entry except for the payment of Rent, (iv) prior to entry upon the Premises by Tenant, Tenant agrees to pay for and provide to Landlord certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of liability insurance carried by Tenant, which coverage must comply with the provisions of this Lease relating to insurance, (v) Tenant and its agents and contractors agree to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, permits and other approvals required to perform its work during the early entry on the Premises, and (vi) Tenant agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and save Landlord and the Premises harmless from and against any and all liens, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses, demands, actions, causes of action and claims (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and legal costs) arising out of the early entry, use, construction, or occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or its agents, employees or contractors.
3.RENT
3.1Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at Landlord’s Address for Payment of Rent designated in the Basic Lease Information, or at such other address as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing to Tenant for the payment of Rent, the Base Rent, without notice, demand, offset or deduction (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease), in advance, on the first day of each calendar month commencing on the Commencement Date. Landlord shall have no obligation to notify Tenant of any increase in Rent and Tenant’s obligation to pay all Rent (and any increases) when due shall not be modified or altered by such lack of notice from Landlord. It is intended that the Rent to be paid hereunder by Tenant will be received by Landlord without any deduction or offset whatsoever by Tenant, foreseeable or unforeseeable. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to make any expenditure, incur any obligation, or incur any liability of any kind whatsoever in connection with this Lease or the ownership, construction, maintenance, operation or repair of the Premises or the Project. Upon the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the first month’s Base Rent. If the Term commences (or ends) on a date other than the first (or last) day of a month, Base Rent shall be prorated
-3-
on the basis of a thirty (30) day month. All sums other than Base Rent which Tenant is obligated to pay under this Lease shall be deemed to be additional rent due hereunder (“Additional Rent”), whether or not such sums are designated Additional Rent and, together with the Base Rent, shall be due and payable, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, to Landlord commencing on the Possession Date. The term “Rent” means the Base Rent and all Additional Rent payable hereunder.
3.2Late Charge and Interest. The late payment of any Rent will cause Landlord to incur additional costs, including administration and collection costs and processing and accounting expenses and increased debt service (“Delinquency Costs”). If Landlord has not received any installment of Rent within five (5) days after such amount is due, (i) Tenant shall pay a late charge of five percent (5%) of the delinquent amount, which is agreed to represent a reasonable estimate of the Delinquency Costs incurred by Landlord, and (ii) all such delinquent amounts shall bear interest from the date such amount was due until paid in full at a rate per annum (“Applicable Interest Rate”) equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum interest rate permitted by law or (b) three percent (3%) above the rate publicly announced by Bank of America, N.A. (or if Bank of America, N.A. ceases to exist, the largest bank then headquartered in the State of Oregon) (“Bank”) as its “Reference Rate”; provided, however, that, if Tenant has not been delinquent in paying Rent beyond such five (5) day period during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the late payment in question, then a late charge shall not be assessed and the Applicable Interest Rate (accruing from the date the payment was due) shall not apply unless Tenant fails to make the applicable payment of Rent within five (5) days after Landlord delivers notice of such delinquency to Tenant, and provided further that such additional notice and cure period shall apply no more than three (3) times during the Term. If the use of the announced Reference Rate is discontinued by the Bank, then the term Reference Rate shall mean the announced rate charged by the Bank which is, from time to time, substituted for the Reference Rate. Landlord and Tenant recognize that the damage which Landlord shall suffer as a result of Tenant’s failure to pay such amounts is difficult to ascertain and said late charge and interest are the best estimate of the damage which Landlord shall suffer in the event of late payment. If a late charge becomes payable for any three (3) installments of Rent within any twelve (12) month period, then the Rent shall automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance.
3.3Security Deposit. One (1) business day after the Possession Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Security Deposit (less any security deposit retained by Landlord, if any, in connection with the Premises located at 18550 NE Riverside Parkway, Gresham, Oregon). The Security Deposit shall secure the full and faithful performance of each provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to pay interest on the Security Deposit or to keep the Security Deposit separate from Landlord’s own funds. If Tenant fails to perform fully and timely all or any of Tenant’s covenants and obligations hereunder, Landlord may, but without obligation, apply all or any portion of the Security Deposit toward fulfillment of Tenant’s unperformed covenants and/or obligations. If Landlord does so apply any portion of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall immediately pay Landlord sufficient cash to restore the Security Deposit to the amount of the then current Base Rent per month. Upon any increase or decrease in Base Rent, Landlord may require the Security Deposit to be increased or decreased by the amount of the adjustment in the per month Base Rent. After Tenant vacates the Premises, upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, if Tenant is not then in default, Landlord shall return to Tenant any unapplied balance of the Security Deposit.
4.UTILITIES. Tenant shall pay all charges for heat, water, gas, electricity, telephone and any other utilities used on the Premises by Tenant directly to the applicable utility provider. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for interruption in or curtailment of any utility service, nor shall any such interruption or curtailment constitute constructive eviction or grounds for rental abatement. Landlord hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to restore any interrupted or curtailed services to the extent such interruption or curtailment is caused by Landlord.
5.TAXES
5.1Real Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Share of Real Property Taxes (as defined in Section 5.2) as a part of Operating Expenses for each full or partial calendar year during the Lease Term in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 7.1 below.
5.2Definition of Real Property Taxes. “Real Property Taxes” shall be the sum of the following: all real property taxes, assessments, supplementary taxes, escape taxes, possessory-interest taxes, business or license
-4-
taxes or fees, service payments in lieu of such taxes or fees, annual or periodic license or use fees, excises, transit and traffic charges, housing fund assessments, open space charges, childcare fees, school, sewer and parking fees or any other assessments, levies, fees, exactions or charges, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen (including fees “in-lieu” of any such tax or assessment) which are assessed, levied, charged, conferred or imposed by any public authority upon the Premises or any other improvements located upon the Premises (or any real property comprising any portion thereof) or its operations, together with all taxes, assessments or other fees imposed by any public authority upon or measured by any Rent or other charges payable hereunder, including any gross receipts tax or excise tax levied by any governmental authority with respect to receipt of rental income, or upon, with respect to or by reason of the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion thereof, or documentary transfer taxes upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest in the Premises, together with any tax imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of any tax previously included within the aforesaid definition or any additional tax the nature of which was previously included within the aforesaid definition, together with any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’, administrative and expert witness fees and costs) incurred by Landlord in challenging any of the foregoing or seeking the reduction in or abatement, redemption or return of any of the foregoing, but only to the extent of any such reduction, abatement, redemption or return. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any assessments that may be paid over more than a one (1) year period shall be included in “Real Property Taxes” as if such payments were made in the maximum number of installments permitted by Applicable Laws and only the portion thereof attributable to a given year shall be included in “Real Property Taxes” for that year. All references to Real Property Taxes during a particular year shall be deemed to refer to taxes accrued during such year, including supplemental tax bills regardless of when they are actually assessed and without regard to when such taxes are payable. Real Property Taxes shall expressly include One Hundred Percent (100%) of any increase or supplemental assessments accruing as a result of the construction of the Building, or any other improvements located upon the Premises. In addition to Tenant’s Share of Real Property Taxes (paid as a part of Operating Expenses), Tenant shall pay to Landlord One Hundred Percent (100%) of any increase in taxes due to the increased assessed value of the Premises directly attributable to the value of any Tenant Improvements (as defined in the Work Letter, if any). The obligation of Tenant to pay Real Property Taxes (including any supplemental taxes) for the last full and/or partial year(s) of the Term shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease. In no event shall Tenant or any Tenant Party (as defined in Section 12.1) be entitled to file any property tax assessment appeal. Nothing contained in this Lease shall require Tenant to pay any franchise, corporate, estate or inheritance tax of Landlord, or any income, profits or revenue tax or charge upon the net income of Landlord to the extent attributable to Landlord’s general or net income (as opposed to rents or receipts attributable to operations at the Project). Subject to the terms of this Section 5.2, Real Property Taxes for partial years, if any, falling within the Term shall be prorated.
5.3Personal Property Taxes. Prior to delinquency, Tenant shall pay all taxes and assessments levied upon trade fixtures, alterations, additions, improvements, inventories and other personal property located and/or installed on the Premises by Tenant; and Tenant shall provide Landlord copies of receipts for payment of all such taxes and assessments. To the extent any such taxes are not separately assessed or billed to Tenant, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof as invoiced by Landlord.
6.OPERATING EXPENSES
6.1Operating Expenses. Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Share of the Building Operating Expenses, if any, and Tenant’s Share of Project Operating Expenses for each full or partial calendar year during the Lease Term, as provided in Section 7.1 below. Tenant’s Share of Building Operating Expenses and Tenant’s Share of Project Operating Expenses may be referred to herein collectively as “Tenant’s Share”.
6.2Definition of Operating Expenses. “Operating Expenses” shall mean collectively the “Building Operating Expenses” and the “Project Operating Expenses” as defined in this Section 6.2. The Lease is a single tenant “triple-net” Lease and Tenant shall be responsible to perform and shall have the first opportunity/obligation to perform all repairs and maintenance of the Premises in accordance with Section 9.1 below, subject to Landlord’s responsibility for the maintenance and repair of specific areas of the Premises as specifically set forth in Section 9.2 below.

8.3.2.Certificates of Insurance. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord certificates of insurance for all insurance required to be maintained by Tenant in the form ofExhibit D, attached hereto (or in a form acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion), no later than seven (7) days prior to the date of possession of the Premises. Tenant shall, at least ten (10) days prior to expiration of the policy, furnish Landlord with certificates of renewal or “binders” thereof. Each certificate shall expressly provide that such policies shall not be cancelable or otherwise subject to modification except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to the parties named as additional insureds in this Lease (except in the case of cancellation for nonpayment of premium in which case cancellation shall not take effect until at least ten (10) days’ notice has been given to Landlord).

The policies required under Section 8.2.1 shall provide for severability of interest.
8.3.4.Primary Coverage. All insurance to be maintained by Tenant shall, except for workers’ compensation and employer’s liability insurance, be primary, without right of contribution from insurance of Landlord. Any umbrella liability policy or excess liability policy (which shall be in “following form”) shall provide that if the underlying aggregate is exhausted, the excess coverage will drop down as primary insurance. The limits of insurance maintained by Tenant shall not limit Tenant’s liability under this Lease.
8.3.5.Waiver of Subrogation. Whenever (a) any loss, cost, damage or expense resulting from fire, explosion or any other casualty is incurred by either Landlord or Tenant or by anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord or Tenant in connection with the Premises, and (b) such party is covered in whole or in part by property insurance (or would have been covered but for such party’s failure to maintain the coverage required in this Section 8) with respect to such loss, cost, damage or expense or as required under this Lease to be self-insured, then the party so insured (or so required) hereby waives (on its own behalf and on behalf of its insured) any claims against and releases the party from any liability said other party may have on account of such loss, cost, damage or expense. All property insurance which is carried by either party to insure against damage or loss to property shall include provisions denying to each respective insurer rights of subrogation and recovery against the other party. The waiver of subrogation contained in this Section 8.3.5 shall not apply to any casualty which is not covered or required to be covered by the insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Lease.
8.3.6.Notification of Incidents. Tenant shall notify Landlord within forty-eight (48) hours after the occurrence of any accidents or incidents in the Premises or the Project which could give rise to a claim under any of the insurance policies required under this Section 8.
8.4Indemnity.

Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord’s affiliated entities, and each of their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, lenders, agents, contractors, successors and assigns (collectively, “Landlord Parties”) from and against any and all claims, judgments, causes of action,
-8-
damages, penalties, costs, liabilities, and expenses, including all costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon (collectively, “Claims” or “Liabilities”), arising at any time during or after the Term as a result (directly or indirectly) of or in connection with (i) any default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, or (ii) Tenant’s use of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant’s business or any activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or any Tenant Party (as defined in Section 12.1) in or about the Premises or other portions of the Project, except to the extent caused by (a) Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Claims or Liabilities which are covered under any insurance policy required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease (or would be covered under such insurance policy if Tenant had maintained the required insurance policy or policies) (collectively, the “Insurable Risks”), even though caused or alleged to be caused by the negligence or fault (as opposed to gross negligence or willful misconduct) of Landlord or Landlord Parties (this indemnity is intended to indemnify Landlord and Landlord Parties against the consequences of their own negligence with respect to the Insurable Risks when Landlord or Landlord Parties are jointly, comparatively, contributively, or concurrently negligent with Tenant), or (b) Landlord’s negligence or breach of this Lease with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are not part of the Insurable Risks. The obligations of Tenant under this Section 8.4 shall survive the termination of this Lease with respect to any claims or liability arising prior to such termination.
8.4.2.Indemnity by Landlord. Landlord shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably acceptable to Tenant) and hold Tenant and Tenant’s affiliated entities, and each of their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, lenders, agents, contractors, successors and assigns harmless from and against any and all Claims or Liabilities arising out of or in connection with, but only to the extent of (a) Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are part of Insurable Risks and (b) Landlord’s negligence or breach of this Lease with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are not a part of the Insurable Risks; provided, however, the foregoing indemnity of Landlord shall in no way limit the provisions of Section 19.5 hereof. Landlord’s agreement to indemnify, defend and hold Tenant harmless as provided above is not intended to and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease to the extent that such policies cover (or, if such policies would have been carried as required, would have covered) Claims or Liabilities incurred as a result of negligent acts or omissions or the willful misconduct of Landlord or those of other Landlord Parties.
8.5Exemption of Landlord from Liability. Tenant, as a material part of the consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property including, but not limited to, Tenant’s fixtures, equipment, furniture and alterations or illness or injury to persons in, upon or about the Premises or other portions of the Project arising from any cause, and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against Landlord, except to the extent caused by (a) Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are part of the Insurable Risks of (b) Landlord’s negligence or breach of this Lease with respect to the Claims or Liabilities that are not part of the Insurable Risks. Tenant hereby agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for injury to Tenant’s business or any loss of income therefrom. Tenant further agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for damage to the property of Tenant, or injury to or illness or death of Tenant or any Tenant Party, or any other person in or about the Premises or the Project, whether such damage, illness or injury is caused by fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage or other defects of sprinklers, wires, appliances, ventilation, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, and whether said damage, illness or injury results from conditions arising upon the Premises, upon other portions of the Building or from other sources or places, and regardless of whether the cause of such damage, illness or injury or the means of repairing the same is inaccessible to Tenant, except to the extent such damage, illness or injury is caused by (a) Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are part of the Insurable Risks or (b) Landlord’s negligence or breach of this Lease with respect to Claims or Liabilities that are not part of the Insurable Risks. Landlord shall not be liable for any damages arising from any act or neglect of any contractor or other tenant, if any, of the Building or the Project or Landlord’s failure to enforce the terms of any agreements with parties other than Tenant.

Tenant shall have the right to use for its employees and invitees the parking areas located upon the Premises. Landlord hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause other tenants of the Project to comply with the terms and provisions of their leases, but notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Landlord be responsible for non-compliance by any other tenant or occupant of the Project with, or Landlord’s failure to enforce, any of the rules or regulations or CC&Rs or any other terms or provisions of such tenant’s or occupant’s lease, and neither such noncompliance by any such parties nor Landlord’s failure to enforce the same shall constitute a default by Landlord under this Lease or entitle Tenant to any remedies whatsoever against Landlord. Tenant shall promptly comply with the reasonable requirements of any board of fire insurance underwriters or other similar body now or hereafter constituted. Tenant shall not do any act which shall in any way encumber the title of Landlord in and to the Premises, the Building or the Project.

12.2Indemnification. Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord’s affiliated entities, and each of their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, lenders, agents, contractors, successors and assigns (individually and collectively, “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, judgments, causes of action, damages, penalties, fines, taxes, costs, liabilities, losses and expenses arising at any time during or after the Term as a result (directly or indirectly) of or in connection with (a) Tenant and/or any Tenant Party’s breach of this Section 12, or (b) the release of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises or other property as a result (directly or indirectly) of Tenant’s and/or any Tenant Party’s activities, or negligent failure to act, in connection with the Premises. This indemnity shall include, without limitation, the cost of any required or necessary repair, cleanup or detoxification, and the preparation and implementation of any closure, monitoring or other required plans, whether such action is required or necessary prior to or following the termination of this Lease. Neither the written consent by Landlord to the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises, nor the strict compliance by Tenant with all Environmental Laws, shall excuse Tenant from Tenant’s obligation of indemnification pursuant hereto. Tenant’s obligations pursuant to the foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
12.3Pre-Existing Conditions. Landlord hereby represents to Tenant that, to its actual knowledge, no environmental condition (as defined in Section 12.1) in violation of law presently exists as of the Effective Date on, under, or within the Premises. For purposes of this Lease, current “actual knowledge” shall mean the actual, present knowledge of Dan Marcus as of the date of this Lease, without investigation or inquiry of any kind.
13.DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION
13.1Casualty. If the Premises or Building should be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice to Landlord. Within thirty (30) days after receipt from Tenant of such written notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether, in Landlord’s reasonable determination, the necessary repairs can reasonably be made: (a) within one hundred eighty (180) days; or (b) in more than one hundred eighty (180) days, in each case after the date Landlord receives notice of such casualty from Tenant.
13.1.1.Less Than 180 Days. If the Premises or Building should be damaged only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date Landlord receives notice of such casualty from Tenant, this Lease shall not terminate and, provided that insurance proceeds are available to fully repair the damage, Landlord shall repair the Premises and the initial Tenant Improvements installed or constructed in the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant’s Property which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant (other than the initial Tenant Improvements installed or constructed in the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter). If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord’s repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises) from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period the Premises are unfit for occupancy.
-13-
13.1.2.Greater Than 180 Days. If the Premises or Building should be so damaged that rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date Landlord receives notice of such casualty from Tenant, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord specifying such time period of repair; and this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises. In the event that neither party elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repairs to the Building or Premises, provided insurance proceeds are available to repair the damage (except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace Tenant’s Property which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by or for the benefit of Tenant other than the initial Tenant Improvements installed or constructed in the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter). If Tenant is required to vacate all or a portion of the Premises during Landlord’s repair thereof, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be abated proportionately on the basis of the size of the area of the Premises that is damaged (i.e., the number of square feet of floor area of the Premises that is damaged compared to the total square footage of the floor area of the Premises), from the date Tenant vacates all or a portion of the Premises that was damaged only to the extent rental abatement insurance proceeds are received by Landlord and only during the period that the Premises are unfit for occupancy.
13.1.3.Casualty During the Last Year of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if the Premises or the Building shall be damaged within the last year of the Lease Term, and if the cost to repair or reconstruct the portion of the Building or the Premises which was damaged or destroyed shall exceed $10,000, then, irrespective of the time necessary to complete such repair or reconstruction, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Lease effective upon the occurrence of such damage, in which event the Rent shall be abated from the date Tenant vacates the Premises. The foregoing right shall be in addition to any other right and option of Landlord and Tenant under this Section 13.
13.2Tenant’s Fault. If the Premises or any portion of the Premises is damaged resulting from the negligence or breach of this Lease by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties, Rent shall not be reduced during the repair of such damage except to the extent such lost Rent payments are covered by or required to be covered by the insurance required to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to this Lease and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for the cost of the repair caused thereby to the extent such cost is not covered by insurance proceeds received by Landlord.
13.3Uninsured Casualty. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Share of any deductible or retention amount payable under the property insurance for the Premises. In the event that the Premises or any portion of the Premises is damaged to the extent Tenant is unable to use the Premises and such damage is not covered by insurance proceeds received by Landlord (or which would have been received by Landlord had Landlord maintained the insurance required by this Lease to be maintained by Landlord) or in the event that the holder of any indebtedness secured by the Premises requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right at Landlord’s option either (i) to repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at Landlord’s expense, or (ii) to give written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Landlord’s intention to terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage. In the event Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant shall have the right within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice to give written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s commitment to pay the cost of repair of such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Landlord shall make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible subject to the following conditions: Tenant shall deposit with Landlord Landlord’s estimated cost of such repairs not later than ten (10) days prior to Landlord’s commencement of the repair work. If the cost of such repairs exceeds the amount deposited, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such excess cost within fifteen (15) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord. Any amount deposited by Tenant in excess of the cost of such repairs shall be refunded within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s final payment to Landlord’s contractor. If Tenant does not give such notice within the ten (10) day period, or fails to make such deposit as required, this Lease shall terminate automatically as of the date of the occurrence of the damage.
13.4Waiver. With respect to any damage or destruction which Landlord is obligated to repair or may elect to repair, Tenant waives all rights to terminate this Lease pursuant to rights otherwise presently or hereafter accorded by law.
-14-
14.EMINENT DOMAIN
14.1Total Condemnation. If all of the Premises is condemned by eminent domain, inversely condemned or sold under threat of condemnation for any public or quasi-public use or purpose (“Condemned”), this Lease shall terminate as of the earlier of the date the condemning authority takes title to or possession of the Premises, and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of termination.
14.2Partial Condemnation. If any portion of the Premises or the Building is Condemned and Landlord and Tenant determine in their reasonable discretion that such partial condemnation materially impairs Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for Tenant’s business as reasonably determined by Landlord and Tenant, Tenant and Landlord shall each have the option of terminating this Lease as of the earlier of the date title vests in the condemning authority or as of the date an order of immediate possession is issued and Rent shall be adjusted to the date of termination. If Landlord and Tenant determine that such partial condemnation does not materially impair Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for the business of Tenant, Landlord shall promptly restore the Premises to the extent of any condemnation proceeds recovered by Landlord, excluding the portion thereof lost in such condemnation, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except that after the date of such title vesting or order of immediate possession Rent shall be adjusted as reasonably determined by Landlord.
14.3Award. If the Premises are wholly or partially Condemned, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award paid for such condemnation, and Tenant waives any claim to any part of the award from Landlord or the condemning authority; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to recover from the condemning authority such compensation as may be separately awarded to Tenant in connection with costs in removing Tenant’s merchandise, furniture, fixtures, leasehold improvements and equipment to a new location, loss of business and the taking of Tenant’s personal property provided that such award to Tenant does not reduce the amount of the award payable to Landlord. No condemnation of any kind shall be construed to constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant or a breach of any express or implied covenant of quiet enjoyment.
14.4Temporary Condemnation. In the event of a temporary condemnation not extending beyond the Term, this Lease shall remain in effect, Tenant shall continue to pay Rent and Tenant shall receive any award made for such condemnation except damages to any of Landlord’s property. If a temporary condemnation is for a period which extends beyond the Term, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of initial occupancy by the condemning authority and any such award shall be distributed in accordance with the preceding section. If a temporary condemnation remains in effect at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord the reasonable cost of performing any obligations required of Tenant with respect to the surrender of the Premises.
15.DEFAULT
15.1Events of Defaults. The occurrence of any of the following events shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute an “Event of Default”:
15.1.1. Vacation or abandonment of the Premises for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days and failure to secure the Premises;
15.1.2. Failure to pay Rent on the date when due and the failure continuing for a period of seven (7) days after such payment is due and notice of such default is given to Tenant, provided such notice shall be in lieu of any notice required by O.R.S. Section 105.120 or any other Applicable Laws;
15.1.3. Failure to perform Tenant’s covenants and obligations hereunder (except default in the payment of Rent) where such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord; provided, however, if the nature of the default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant commences the cure within such thirty (30) day period and diligently and continuously prosecutes such cure to completion;
15.1.4. The making of a general assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors; the filing of a voluntary petition by Tenant or the filing of an involuntary petition by any of Tenant’s creditors seeking the
-15-
rehabilitation, liquidation or reorganization of Tenant under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief of debtors and, in the case of an involuntary action, the failure to remove or discharge the same within sixty (60) days of such filing; the appointment of a receiver or other custodian to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or this leasehold; Tenant’s insolvency or inability to pay Tenant’s debts or failure generally to pay Tenant’s debts when due; any court entering a decree or order directing the winding up or liquidation of Tenant or of substantially all of Tenant’s assets; Tenant taking any action toward the dissolution or winding up of Tenant’s affairs; the cessation or suspension of Tenant’s use of the Premises; or the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or this leasehold; or
15.1.5. The making of any material misrepresentation or omission by Tenant or any successor in interest of Tenant in any materials delivered by or on behalf of Tenant to Landlord or Landlord’s lender pursuant to this Lease.
15.2Remedies
15.2.1.Termination. In the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right to give a written termination notice to Tenant (which notice may be the notice given under Section 15.1 above, if applicable, and which notice shall be in lieu of any notice required by O.R.S. Section 105.120 or any other Oregon law and, on the date specified in such notice, this Lease shall terminate unless on or before such date all arrears of Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease and all costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Landlord hereunder shall have been paid by Tenant and all other Events of Default at the time existing shall have been fully remedied to the satisfaction of Landlord.
15.2.1.1Repossession. Following termination, without prejudice to other remedies Landlord may have, Landlord may (i) peaceably re-enter the Premises upon voluntary surrender by Tenant or remove Tenant therefrom and any other persons occupying the Premises, using such legal proceedings as may be available; (ii) repossess the Premises or relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term), at such rental and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion shall determine, with the right to make reasonable alterations and repairs to the Premises; and (iii) remove all personal property therefrom.
15.2.1.2Unpaid Rent. Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies of a landlord provided by Applicable Law, including the right to recover from Tenant but subject to Landlord’s duty to mitigate damages if required by Applicable Laws: (a) the worth, at the time of award, of the unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of termination, (b) the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would have been earned after the date of termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, (c) the worth, at the time of award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided, and (d) any other amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s default. The phrase “worth, at the time of award,” as used in (a) and (b) above, shall be computed at the Applicable Interest Rate, and as used in (c) above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
15.2.2.Continuation. Even though an Event of Default may have occurred, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant’s right to possession; and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease allowed by law (“lessor” may continue the Lease in effect after “lessee’s” breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if “lessee” has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations) to recover Rent as it becomes due. Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may, during the period Tenant is in default, enter the Premises and relet the same, or any portion thereof, to third parties for Tenant’s account and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all reasonable costs Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises, including, without limitation, brokers’ commissions, expenses of remodeling the Premises and like costs. Reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining Term. Tenant shall continue to pay the Rent on the date the same is due. No act by Landlord hereunder, including acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease, shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate
-16-
this Lease. In the event that Landlord elects to relet the Premises, the rent that Landlord receives from reletting shall be applied to the payment of, first, any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes; second, all costs, including maintenance, incurred by Landlord in reletting; and, third, Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes under this Lease. After deducting the payments referred to above, any sum remaining from the rental Landlord receives from reletting shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as Rent becomes due under this Lease. In no event, and notwithstanding anything in Section 16 to the contrary, shall Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord. If, on the date Rent is due under this Lease, the rent received from the reletting is less than the Rent due on that date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the remaining Rent due, all costs, including maintenance, which Landlord incurred in reletting the Premises that remain after applying the rent received from reletting as provided hereinabove. So long as this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall have the right to remedy any default of Tenant, to maintain or improve the Premises, to cause a receiver to be appointed to administer the Premises and new or existing subleases and to add to the Rent payable hereunder all of Landlord’s reasonable costs in so doing, with interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such expenditure. Landlord shall have no duty to relet the Premises so long as it has other unleased space available in the Project.
15.3Cumulative. Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and shall not preclude Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise. No payment by Tenant of a lesser amount than the Rent nor any endorsement on any check or letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction of full payment of Rent; and Landlord may accept such payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue other remedies.
16.ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not assign, sublet or otherwise transfer, whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law, the Premises or any part thereof without Landlord’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, Tenant agrees it shall be reasonable for Landlord to disapprove of a requested assignment, if the proposed assignee does not have a tangible net worth (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied) equal to or greater than that of Tenant as of the date of the Lease as shown in the financial information provided to Landlord. The merger of Tenant with any other entity or the transfer of any controlling or managing ownership or beneficial interest in Tenant, or the assignment of a substantial portion of the assets of Tenant, whether or not located at the Premises, shall constitute an assignment hereunder. If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet any or all of the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice thereof with copies of all related documents and agreements associated with the assignment or sublease, including without limitation, the financial statements of any proposed assignee, twenty (20) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the assignment or sublease. Tenant shall pay Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in the review of such documentation plus an administrative fee of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) for each proposed transfer. Landlord shall have a period of fifteen (15) days following receipt of such notice and all related documents and agreements to notify Tenant in writing of Landlord’s approval or disapproval of the proposed assignment or sublease. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant in writing of such election, Landlord shall be deemed to have disapproved such assignment or subletting. This Lease may not be assigned by operation of law. Any purported assignment or subletting contrary to the provisions hereof shall be void and shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Except in the case of an assignment or sublease to an Affiliate, if Tenant receives rent or other consideration for any such transfer in excess of the Rent, or in case of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of such Rent that is fairly allocable to such portion, after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments required hereunder are appropriately taken into account, Tenant shall pay Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the difference between each such payment of rent or other consideration and the Rent required hereunder. Landlord may, without waiving any rights or remedies, collect rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved and apportion any excess rent so collected in accordance with the terms of the preceding sentence. Such acceptance of Rent shall in no event be deemed to imply that Landlord is approving a subtenant or assignee which Landlord has not approved in writing pursuant to the requirements of this Section 16. Notwithstanding any assignment or subleasing of the Premises, Tenant shall continue to be liable as a principal and not as a guarantor or surety to the same extent as though no assignment or subletting had been made. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or subletting of this Lease or amendments or modifications to the Lease by assignees of Tenant without notifying Tenant or any successor of Tenant and without obtaining their consent. No permitted transfer shall be effective until there has been delivered to
-17-
Landlord a counterpart of the transfer instrument in which the transferee agrees to be and remain jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the payment of Rent pertaining to the Premises and for the performance of all the terms and provisions of this Lease relating thereto arising on or after the date of the transfer. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth above requiring Landlord’s consent to any assignment or subletting, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, without Landlord’s consent, to any partnership, corporation, limited liability company or other entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant (control being defined for such purposes as the power to direct the management of the relevant entity), or to any partnership, corporation or other entity resulting from a merger or consolidation with Tenant or to any person or entity which acquires at least a majority of all the assets of Tenant as a going concern (collectively, an “Affiliate”); provided, that (i) Landlord receives twenty (20) days prior written notice of such assignment or subletting together with reasonable financial information concerning the creditworthiness of the Affiliate, (ii) the Affiliate assumes (in the event of an assignment) in writing all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, (iii) Landlord receives a fully executed copy of such assignment or sublease agreement between Tenant and the Affiliate, and (iv) the original Tenant hereunder, i.e., LaCrosse Footwear, Inc., remains liable for all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. In no event shall the transfer or sale of public stock sold on an exchange regulated by the SEC in any Affiliate constitute a transfer under this Lease. Landlord may assign its interest in the Lease in its sole discretion without Tenant’s consent.
17.ESTOPPEL, ATTORNMENT AND SUBORDINATION
17.1Estoppel. Within ten (10) days after written request by Landlord, Tenant shall deliver an estoppel certificate duly executed (and acknowledged if required by any lender), in the form attached hereto asExhibit H, or in such other form as may be acceptable to the lender, which form may include some or all of the provisions contained inExhibit H, to any proposed mortgagee, purchaser or Landlord. Tenant’s failure to deliver said statement in such time period shall be an Event of Default hereunder and shall be conclusive upon Tenant that (a) this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord; (b) there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance and Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim or deduction against Rent hereunder; and (c) no more than one month’s Base Rent has been paid in advance. If any financier should require that this Lease be amended (other than in the description of the Premises, the Term, the Permitted Use, the Rent or as will substantially, materially or adversely affect the rights of Tenant), Landlord shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, which notice shall be accompanied by a Lease supplement embodying such amendments. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after the receipt of Landlord’s notice, execute and deliver to Landlord the tendered Lease supplement. If Tenant fails to deliver to Landlord the tendered Lease supplement within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord’s notice, Tenant shall be deemed to have given Landlord a power of attorney to execute such supplement on behalf of Tenant.
17.2Subordination. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all ground leases, master leases and the lien of all mortgages and deeds of trust which now or hereafter affect the Premises or the Project or Landlord’s interest therein, and all amendments thereto, provided that Tenant receives an executed Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (or such other form as may be commercially reasonable, which form may include some or all of the provisions contained in Exhibit I, so long as such form includes a non-disturbance agreement in favor of Tenant) or as otherwise may be required by the applicable lender, ground lessee and/or master lessor (so long as such documentation includes a non-disturbance agreement in favor of Tenant) (a “SNDA”). If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlord’s request whatever documentation that may reasonably be required to further effect the provisions of this paragraph including a SNDA, or as otherwise may be required by the applicable lender, ground lessee and/or master lessor (so long as such documentation includes a SNDA).
17.3Attornment. Tenant hereby agrees that Tenant will recognize as its landlord under this Lease and shall attorn to any person succeeding to the interest of Landlord in respect of the land and the buildings governed by this Lease upon any foreclosure of any mortgage upon such land or buildings or upon the execution of any deed in lieu of foreclosure in respect to such deed of trust. If requested, Tenant shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming its attornment as provided for herein; provided, however, that no such beneficiary or successor- in-interest shall be bound by any payment of Base Rent for more than one (1) month in advance, or any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the express written consent of such beneficiary where such consent is required under applicable loan documents.

This paragraph shall not be construed as Landlord’s permission for Tenant to hold over.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, whenever Landlord’s consent to or approval of any matter is required hereunder, such approval or consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord’s consent to any act, assignment or subletting shall not constitute an acknowledgment that no Event of Default or breach by Tenant of this Lease exists, nor shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing Event of Default or breach, except as may be otherwise specifically stated in writing by Landlord at the time of such consent. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the failure to specify herein any particular condition to Landlord’s consent shall not preclude the imposition by Landlord at the time of
-21-
consent of such further or other conditions as are then reasonable with reference to the particular matter for which consent is being given.
19.14Force Majeure. “Force Majeure” as used herein means delays resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of the other party, including, without limitation, any delay caused by any action, inaction, order, ruling, moratorium, regulation, statute, condition or other decision of any private party or governmental agency having jurisdiction over any portion of the Project, over the construction anticipated to occur thereon or over any uses thereof, or by delays in inspections or in issuing approvals by private parties or permits by governmental agencies, or by fire, flood, inclement weather, strikes, lockouts or other labor or industrial disturbance (whether or not on the part of agents or employees of either party hereto engaged in the construction of the Premises), civil disturbance, order of any government, court or regulatory body claiming jurisdiction or otherwise, act of public enemy, war, riot, sabotage, blockage, embargo, failure or inability to secure materials, supplies or labor through ordinary sources by reason of shortages or priority, discovery of hazardous or toxic materials, earthquake, or other natural disaster, delays caused by any dispute resolution process, or any cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control (excluding financial inability) of the party whose performance is required, or any of its contractors or other representatives, whether or not similar to any of the causes hereinabove stated.

Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days after such notice to Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if Landlord has commenced within such thirty (30) day period and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default), then the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust shall have an additional forty-five (45) days within which to cure or correct such default (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if such holder of any mortgage or deed of trust has commenced within such forty-five (45) day period and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any holder of any mortgage or deed of trust have any obligation to cure any default of the Landlord.

the Improvements in accordance with the Final Plans. Landlord reserves the right to retain a development consultant to assist Landlord in performing its obligations under this Work Letter and under the Lease. All costs associated with any such developer shall be included within the cost of the Work.
5. Improvement Plans
(a)Preliminary Plans. Attached hereto are the following preliminary plans and base building specifications for the Shell and the Tenant Improvements (collectively, the “Preliminary Plans”), which have been reviewed and approved by Landlord and Tenant: (i) Schedule 1 is a site plan; (ii) Schedule 2 is the “Base Building Specifications” for the Shell; and (iii) Schedule 3 is a floor plan for the Office Portion of the Premises, if available.
(b)Final Plans. No later than November 15, 2005, the parties shall agree upon final plans and specifications for the Tenant Improvements (“Final Tenant Improvement Plans”) which shall be consistent with the Preliminary Plans, except for the changes, if any, mutually agreed to be made thereto by the parties. Included in the Final Tenant Improvement Plans will be the civil, architectural and structural plans for the Tenant Improvements. No later than November 1, 2005, the parties shall agree upon final plans and specifications for the Shell which will be based on Schedule 2 (“Final Shell Plans”) which shall be consistent with the Preliminary Plans, except for the changes, if any, mutually agreed to be made thereto by the parties. Included in the Final Shell Plans shall be the civil, architectural and structural plans for the Shell and the landscape plan for the exterior of the Building. The Final Tenant Improvement Plans and the Final Shell Plans are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Final Plans”. When the Final Plans have been approved by Tenant and Landlord, Architect shall submit the Final Plans to the appropriate governmental agency for plan checking and the issuance of a building permit for the Tenant Improvements. Architect shall make any and all changes to the Final Plans required by any applicable governmental entity to obtain a building permit for the Tenant Improvements.
(c)Work Cost Estimate. Prior to the commencement of construction of any of the Tenant Improvements and on a monthly basis during the design stage of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a written estimate of the cost to complete the Tenant Improvements, which written estimate will be based upon the Final Plans taking into account any modifications which may be required to reflect changes in the Final Plans required by the appropriate governmental authorities in connection with the issuance of a building permit (the “Work Cost Estimate”). Tenant will either approve the Work Cost Estimate, or disapprove specific items, and submit to Landlord revisions to the Final Plans in the form of a Change Order. Submission and approval of the Work Cost Estimate will proceed in accordance with the work schedule provided by Landlord. Upon Tenant’s approval of the Work Cost Estimate (the “Work Cost Statement”), Landlord will have the right to purchase materials and to commence the construction of the items included in the Work Cost Statement. If the total costs reflected in the Work Cost Statement exceed the Allowance and the Tenant Contribution (as such terms are defined in Section 9 below), Tenant shall pay such excess to Landlord in cash or by wire transfer of funds, within ten (10) days after Tenant’s approval of the Work Cost Statement. During Landlord’s construction of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall endeavor to keep Tenant reasonably informed of the status of construction costs with respect to the Tenant Improvements.
(d)No Representations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease or herein, Landlord’s participation in the preparation of the Preliminary Plans, the Final Plans, the cost estimates for the Tenant Improvements and the construction thereof shall not constitute any representation or warranty, express or implied, that the Improvements and/or the Premises, if built in accordance with the Final Plans, will be suitable for Tenant’s intended purpose. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Improvements and the Premises are intended for use by Tenant and the specifications and design requirements for the Improvements and the Premises are not within the special knowledge or experience of Landlord. Landlord’s sole obligation shall be to arrange the construction of the Improvements in a good and workmanlike manner substantially in accordance with the requirements of the Final Plans and in compliance with all applicable laws and building codes; and any additional costs or expense required for the modification thereof to more adequately meet Tenant’s use, whether during or after Landlord’s construction thereof, shall be borne entirely by Tenant except as otherwise provided in this Work Letter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees to assign to Tenant on a non-exclusive basis the benefit of all construction and architectural warranties pertaining to the Tenant Improvements to the extent that they do not relate to structural or other portions of the Building that Landlord is required to maintain and repair under the Lease.
EXHIBIT B

6. Change Orders. After the parties approve the Final Plans and a building permit for the Shell and/or the Tenant Improvements is issued, any further changes to the Final Plans and/or the base Building Specifications shall require the prior written approval of Tenant and Landlord (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that Landlord shall not need the consent or approval of Tenant for changes to the Final Plans that do not change the Building square footage by more than one percent (1%) and that do not affect the Tenant Improvements and/or the Premises or materially alter the quality or character of the Building. If Tenant desires any change in the Final Plans relative to the Shell or Tenant Improvements which is reasonable and practical (which shall be conclusively determined by the Architect), such changes may only be requested by the delivery to Landlord by Tenant of a proposed written “Change Order” specifically setting forth the requested change. Landlord shall have five (5) business days from the receipt of the proposed Change Order to provide Tenant with the Architect’s disapproval of the proposed change stating the reason(s) for such disapproval, or if the Architect approves the proposed change, the following items: (i) a summary of any increase in the cost caused by such change (the “Change Order Cost”), (ii) a statement of the number of days of any delay caused by such proposed change (the “Change Order Delay”), and (iii) a statement of the cost of the Change Order Delay (the “Change Order Delay Expense”), which Change Order Delay Expense shall be the product of the number of days of delay multiplied by the estimated daily Base Rent rate. Tenant shall then have three (3) business days to approve the Change Order Cost, the Change Order Delay and the Change Order Delay Expense. If Tenant approves these items, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Change Order Cost and Change Order Delay Expense within two (2) business days after Tenant’s approval thereof (except that the portion of the Change Order Cost which reflects the hard construction costs associated with such Change Order may be paid by Tenant in accordance with the progress of the work, within ten (10) days of receipt of each periodic invoice from Landlord therefor), and Landlord shall promptly following receipt of such payment execute the Change Order and cause the appropriate changes to the Final Plans to be made. If Tenant fails to respond to Landlord within said three (3) business day period, the Change Order Cost, the Change Order Delay and the Change Order Delay Expense shall be deemed disapproved by Tenant and Landlord shall have no further obligation to perform any Work set forth in the proposed Change Order. The Change Order Cost shall include all costs associated with the Change Order, including, without limitation, architectural fees, engineering fees and construction costs, as conclusively determined by the Architect and the Contractor (defined in Section 7), respectively, together with a five percent (5%) fee of these costs as reimbursement for the expense of administration and coordination of such Change Order by Landlord’s Representative. The Change Order Delay shall include all delays caused by the Change Order, including, without limitation, all design and construction delays, as conclusively determined by the Architect and the Contractor (defined in Section 7), respectively.

(b)Costs in Excess of Allowance. The cost of each item referenced in Section 9(a) above shall be charged against the Allowance.

SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE
AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT
AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT
NOTICE: THIS SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT RESULTS IN YOUR LEASEHOLD ESTATE BECOMING SUBJECT TO AND OF LOWER PRIORITY THAN THE LIEN OF SOME OTHER OR LATER SECURITY INSTRUMENT.
This Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into as of the ___ day of ___, 200___ by and among LACROSSE FOOTWEAR, INC., a ___ corporation (“Tenant”), ___, a ___ (“Borrower”) and ___(“Bank”).
Factual Background
A. Borrower owns certain real property in the County of Mutnomah, State of Oregon, more particularly described in the attached Schedule 1 term “Property” herein means that real property together with all improvements (the “Improvements”) located on it.
B. Bank has made or agreed to make a loan to Borrower in the principal amount of ___ and ___/100 Dollars ($___) (the “Loan”) as provided in a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”). The Loan is or will be evidenced by a promissory note (the “Note”) which is or will be secured by a deed of trust encumbering the Property (the “Deed of Trust”) with an assignment of rents. The Loan Agreement, the Note, the Deed of Trust, this Agreement and all other documents and instruments identified in the Loan Agreement as “Loan Documents” shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Loan Documents”.
C. Tenant and Borrower (as landlord) entered into a lease dated ___, 200___(the “Lease”) under which Borrower leased to Tenant a portion of the Improvements located within the Property and more particularly described in the Lease (the “Premises”).
D. It is a requirement of the Loan to Borrower that Tenant agree, among other things, to subordinate Tenant’s rights under the Lease to the lien of the Loan Documents and to attorn to Bank on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Tenant is willing to agree to such subordination and attornment and other conditions, provided that Bank agrees to a nondisturbance provision, all as set forth more fully below.
EXHIBIT “I”
-1-
AGREEMENT :
Therefore, the parties agree as follows:
1. Subordination. The Loan Documents and all supplements, amendments, modifications, renewals, replacements and extensions of and to them shall unconditionally be and remain at all times a lien on the Property prior and superior to the Lease, to the leasehold estate created by it, and to all rights and privileges of Tenant under it. The Lease and leasehold estate, together with all rights and privileges of Tenant under that Lease, are hereby made subordinate to the lien of the Loan Documents in favor of Bank. Tenant consents to Borrower and Bank entering into the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents. Tenant further declares, agrees and acknowledges that in making disbursements under the Loan Documents Bank has no obligation or duty to, nor has Bank represented that it will, see to the application of such proceeds by the person or persons to whom they are disbursed by Bank, and any application or use of such proceeds for purposes other than those provided for in the Loan Documents shall not defeat the subordination made in this Agreement, in whole or in part.
2. Definitions of “Transfer of the Property” and “Purchaser”. As used herein, the term “Transfer of the Property” means any transfer of Borrower’s interest in the Property by foreclosure, trustee’s sale or other action or proceeding for the enforcement of the Deed of Trust or by deed in lieu thereof. The term “Purchaser”, as used herein, means any transferee, including Bank, of the interest of Borrower as a result of any such Transfer of the Property and also includes any and all successors and assigns, including Bank, of such transferee.
3. Nondisturbance. Bank agrees that the enforcement of the Deed of Trust shall not terminate the Lease or disturb Tenant in the possession and use of the Premises unless at the time of foreclosure Tenant is in default under the Lease or this Agreement past applicable grace periods, and Bank so notifies Tenant in writing at or prior to the time of the foreclosure sale that the Lease will be terminated by foreclosure because of such default. The nondisturbance herein granted is subject to Section 5 below. This nondisturbance applies to any option to extend or renew the Lease term which is set forth in the Lease as of the date of this Agreement.
4. Attornment. Subject to Section 3 above, if any Transfer of the Property should occur, Tenant shall and hereby does attorn to Purchaser, including Bank if it should be the Purchaser, as the landlord under the Lease, and Tenant shall be bound to Purchaser under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the Lease term and any extensions or renewals of it which may then or later be in effect under any validly exercised extension or renewal option contained in the Lease, all with the same force and effect as if Purchaser had been the original landlord under the Lease. This attornment shall be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instruments upon Purchaser’s succeeding to the interest of the landlord under the Lease.
5. Subordination of Options and Rights of First Refusal. The Loan Documents and all supplements, amendments, modifications, renewals, replacements and extensions of and to them shall unconditionally be and remain at all times a lien on the Property prior and superior to any existing or future right of Tenant, whether arising out of the Lease or otherwise, to exercise any option or right of first offer to:
(a) purchase the Premises or the Property or any interest or portion in or of either of them; or
(b) expand into other space in the Improvements except pursuant to Sections 21 and 22 of the Lease.
Tenant specifically agrees and acknowledges that upon any Transfer of the Property, any such purchase option, whether now existing or in the future arising, shall terminate and be inapplicable to the Property notwithstanding the nondisturbance granted to Tenant in Section 3 above. If any option or right of first offer to purchase is exercised prior to a Transfer of the Property, any title so acquired to all or any part of the Property shall be subject to the lien of the Loan Documents, which lien shall in no way be impaired by the exercise of such option or right of first offer. Bank specifically reserves all of its rights to enforce any accelerating transfer, due on sale, due on encumbrance or similar provision in the Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document.

6. Notices of Default; Material Notices; Bank’s Rights to Cure Default. Tenant shall send a copy of any notice of default or similar statement with respect to the Lease to Bank at the same time such notice or statement is sent to Borrower. In the event of any act or omission by Borrower which would give Tenant the right to terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant shall not exercise any such right or make any such claim until it has given Bank written notice of such act or omission and has given Bank either thirty (30) days to cure the default. Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall be construed as a promise or undertaking by Bank to cure any default of Borrower.
7. Limitation on Bank’s Performance. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to be an agreement by Bank to perform any covenant of Borrower as landlord under the Lease. Tenant agrees that if Bank becomes Purchaser then, upon subsequent transfer of the Property by Bank to a new owner, Bank shall have no further liability under the Lease after said transfer.
8. Limitation on Liability. No Purchaser who acquires title to the Property shall have any obligation or liability beyond its interest in the Property.
9. Tenant’s Covenants. Tenant agrees that during the term of the Lease, without Bank’s prior written consent, Tenant shall not:
(a) pay any rent or additional rent more than one month in advance to any landlord including Borrower; or
(b) cancel, terminate or surrender the Lease, except at the normal expiration of the Lease term or as provided in Section 6 above.
10. Bank Not Obligated. Bank, if it becomes the Purchaser or if it takes possession under the Deed of Trust, and any other Purchaser shall not (a) be liable for any damages or other relief attributable to any act or omission of any prior Landlord under the Lease including Borrower; or (b) be subject to any offset or defense not specifically provided for in the Lease which Tenant may have against any prior landlord under the Lease; or (c) be bound by any prepayment by Tenant of more than one month’s installment of rent; or (d) be obligated for any security deposit not actually delivered to Purchaser; or (e) be bound by any modification or amendment of or to the Lease unless the amendment or modification shall have been approved in writing by Bank.
11. Tenant’s Estoppel Certificate.

(b)Tenant’s Option Rights. Tenant has no right or option of any nature whatsoever, whether arising out of the Lease or otherwise, to purchase the Premises or the Property, or any interest or portion in or of either of them, to expand into other space in the Improvements or to extend or renew the term of the Lease, except as described in the attached Schedule 3.
(c)No Default. As of the date of this Agreement, Tenant represents and warrants that to the best of Tenant’s knowledge there exist no events of default or events that with notice or the passage of time or both would be events of default under the Lease on either the Tenant’s part or the Borrower’s, nor is there any right of offset against any of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease, except as described in the attached Schedule 4. Tenant represents and warrants that the Lease is in full force and effect as of the date of this Agreement.

12. Integration; Etc. This Agreement integrates all of the terms and conditions of the parties’ agreement regarding the subordination of the Lease to the Loan Documents, attornment, nondisturbance and the other matters contained herein. This Agreement supersedes and cancels all oral negotiations and prior and other writings with respect to (a) such subordination (only to such extent, however, as would affect the priority between the Lease and the Loan Documents), including any provisions of the Lease which provide for the subordination of the Lease to a deed of trust or to a mortgage and (b) such attornment, non-disturbance and other matters contained herein. If there is any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and those of any other agreement or instrument, including the Lease, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement signed by the parties or their respective successors in interest. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which is an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.
13. Notices. All notices given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given by personal delivery, overnight receipted courier or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, sent to the party at its address appearing below. Notices shall be effective upon receipt (or on the date when proper delivery is refused).

14. Attorneys’ Fees. If any lawsuit, judicial reference or arbitration is commenced which arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from each other party such sums as the court, referee or arbitrator may adjudge to be reasonable attorneys’ fees, including the costs for any legal services by in-house counsel, in addition to costs and expenses otherwise allowed by law.
15. Miscellaneous Provisions. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to the choice of law rules of that State. This Agreement satisfies any condition or requirement in the Lease relating to the granting of a nondisturbance agreement by Bank. As used herein, the word “include(s)” means “include(s) without limitation,” and the word “including” means “including but not limited to.” Bank, at its sole discretion, may but shall not be obligated to record this Agreement.
16. Arbitration; Judicial Reference. Bank and Borrower have agreed in the Loan Agreement that any dispute shall be resolved by arbitration or judicial reference. Therefore any controversy or claim between or among the parties hereto (including Tenant) which arises out of or relates to this Agreement, including any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort, shall also be determined by arbitration or judicial reference as set forth below.
EXHIBIT “I”
-4-
(a)Judicial Reference. In any judicial action between or among the parties, including any action or cause of action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or based on or arising from an alleged tort, all decisions of fact and law shall at the request of any party be referred to a referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 638 et seq. The parties shall designate to the court a referee or referees selected under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in the same manner as arbitrators are selected in AAA-sponsored proceedings. The presiding referee of the panel, or the referee if there is a single referee, shall be an active attorney or retired judge. Judgment upon the award rendered by such referee or referees shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645.
(b)Mandatory Arbitration. After the Bank’s Deed of Trust has been released, fully reconveyed or extinguished, any controversy or claim between or among the parties, including those arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort, shall at the request of any party be determined by arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this Agreement, and under the Commercial Rules of the AAA. The arbitrator(s) shall give effect to statutes of limitation in determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrator(s). Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.
(c)Real Property Collateral. Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (b), no controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration without the consent of all parties if, at the time of the proposed submission, any obligation of Borrower to Bank is secured by real property collateral. If all parties do not consent to submission of such a controversy or claim to arbitration, the controversy or claim shall be determined by judicial reference as provided in Subsection (a).
(d)Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. No provision of this Section shall limit the right of any party to this Agreement to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, foreclosure against or sale of any real or personal property collateral or security, or to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of a remedy does not waive the right of a party to resort to arbitration or reference. At Bank’s option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be accomplished either by exercise of power of sale under the deed of trust or mortgage or by judicial foreclosure.
(e) The parties agree that this arbitration and judicial reference provision shall not prohibit or limit summary proceedings to obtain possession of real property pursuant to Chapter 4 of the California Code of Civil Procedure (Section 1159etseq.) as amended from time to time, or any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.
NOTICE: THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A PROVISION WHICH ALLOWS THE PERSON OBLIGATED ON YOUR LEASE TO OBTAIN A LOAN, A PORTION OF WHICH MAY BE EXPENDED FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN IMPROVEMENT OF THE PROPERTY.
