The period of time during which Tenant has a right to occupy the Premises. 3.13 Termination. The ending of the Term for any reason before expiration. ARTICLE 4. CONSTRUCTION 4.1 Construction. Construction of the Premises shall be accomplished in the manner described in Exhibit C. If the Premises have not already been constructed, the same shall be constructed in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit C. The Premises shall be deemed completed and possession delivered when Landlord has substantially completed the improvements to be installed by Landlord pursuant to Exhibit C. It is agreed that by occupying the Premises, Tenant formally accepts the same and acknowledges that the Premises are in the condition called for hereunder. In the event that any disagreement or dispute arises between Landlord and Tenant with reference to the work to be performed or whether or not the Premises is substantially complete, the certification of Landlord's architect shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. 4.2 Substantial Completion. Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of the expected date for "Substantial Completion" of Landlord's construction obligations at least ten (10) days before that date. After Landlord notifies Tenant of the date, Tenant may have the right to enter the Premises to commence equipping and fixturing as long as such entry does not interfere with Landlord or Landlord's <PAGE> contractor. The Premises shall be deemed ready for occupancy upon the expiration of ten (10) days from the date of said notice and when Landlord has Substantially Completed Landlord's work. 4.3 Possession. When Tenant enters the Premises or takes possession as provided in this Article, all the provisions of this Lease shall be in full force and effect except for those provisions that expressly take effect on Term commencement. 4.4 Defects and Variances. Within ten (10) sixty (60) days after Landlord has notified Tenant that Landlord's construction obligations have been substantially completed, Tenant shall give Landlord a list of any contended defects or variances from Landlord's construction obligations. Landlord will immediately commence to complete or correct the items that it believes are justified. If Tenant does not deliver the list within the ten (10) sixty (60) day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Premises. If Tenant gives Landlord a list within the ten (10) sixty (60) day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Premises subject to such defects or variances. 4.5 Failure to Take Possession. In the event that Landlord notifies Tenant that the Premises are ready for delivery and Tenant fails to take possession and to open the Premises for business fully fixtured, stocked, and staffed prior to the date set forth in the Basic Provisions and prior to the expiration of any grace period provided for in Exhibit C for the construction of tenant improvements, then Landlord shall have the right, at its option, in addition to any other remedy provided in this Lease to collect not only the Monthly Minimum Rent but rental in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the per diem Monthly Minimum Rent, calculated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month, per day for each business day that Tenant fails to commence to do business. Such additional rental shall be deemed to be in lieu of any Percentage Rent that might have been earned during the period in which Tenant fails to open. 4.6 Landlord's Failure to Deliver. If Landlord, for any reason whatsoever (including but not limited to the causes described in Section 37.5 below), cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant within sixty (60) days of Lease execution, this Lease shall not be void or voidable and the expiration date and Tenant's obligations hereunder (except the obligation to commence paying Rental) shall not be affected nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage, directly or indirectly, attributable to such delay. ARTICLE 5. TERM 5.1 Commencement of Term. The Term shall commence upon completion of the Notice Period provided in Section 1.5 above (the "Commencement Date"), or upon opening of the Premises for business, whichever first occurs, and shall continue for the period specified in Section 1.6 above. If the Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, then the Term shall be deemed to commence on the first day of the succeeding month; however, rent shall be due for any such partial month. 5.2 Commencement Date Agreement. Following commencement of the Term, the parties shall immediately execute a supplement to this Lease stating the Commencement Date. 5.3 Holdover Tenancy. If Tenant remains in the Leased Premises after the expiration or termination of this Lease, and has not given such prior written notice to Landlord or obtained Landlord's consent, such continuance of possession by Tenant will be deemed to be a month-to-month tenancy at the sufferance of the Landlord terminable on thirty (30) day's notice at any time by either party. All provisions of this Lease, except those pertaining to Term and rent, will apply to the month-to-month tenancy. Tenant will pay Monthly Minimum Rent in the amount equal to 150 percent (150%) of the Base Monthly Rent for the last full calendar month during the Term and Percentage Rent shall be paid within twenty (20) days after the end of each month. If Tenant intends to vacate the Leased Premises on the lease expiration date, Tenant will give Landlord ninety (90) days prior written notice of such intent to vacate. 5.4 Early Termination. In the event Coldwater Creek's sales for months 13 through 24 do not exceed $200 per square foot, Coldwater Creek will have the one-time right to terminate this Lease with one hundred twenty (120) days' written notice. In the event this Lease is terminated prior to the <PAGE> term expiration, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the pro-rata share of the additional tenant improvement cash allowance. ARTICLE 6. PREPAID RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSIT 6.1 Prepaid Rent. On or before execution of this Lease, Tenant has deposited with Landlord the amount specified in Section 1.10 above as prepaid rent for the period specified therein. 6.2 Security Deposit. On or before execution of this Lease, Tenant has deposited with Landlord the amount specified in Section 1.11 above, which is a security deposit for the performance by Tenant of the provisions of this Lease. If Tenant is in default, Landlord may, at its option without prejudice to any other right or remedy, apply the security deposit, or any portion of it, to cure the default or to compensate Landlord for all damage sustained by Landlord resulting from Tenant's default. The security deposit is not an advance rental deposit or a measure of Landlord's damages in case of Tenant's default. Tenant shall immediately, on demand, pay to Landlord a sum equal to the portion of the security deposit applied by Landlord as provided in this Article so as to maintain the security deposit in the sum provided above. If Tenant is not in default at the expiration or termination of the Term and when all rent and other sums due to Landlord following expiration or termination are paid by Tenant, Landlord shall return the security deposit to Tenant. Landlord's obligations, with respect to the security deposit, are those of a debtor and not a trustee. Landlord may maintain the security deposit separate and apart from Landlord's general funds or can commingle the security deposit with Landlord's other funds. Landlord shall not be required to pay Tenant interest on the security deposit. <PAGE> ARTICLE 7. RENT 7.1 Initial Monthly Minimum Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Monthly Minimum Rent the sum specified in Section 1.12 above per month in advance on or before the first day of each month during the first year of this Lease. Monthly Minimum Rent for the first month or portion of it shall be paid on or before execution of this Lease and shall be prorated for a partial month. 7.2 Payment of Percentage Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Percentage Rent computed pursuant to the terms of this Lease. Percentage Rent shall be paid quarter annually commencing on the fifteenth (15th) day after the last day of the first three (3) months of the first Lease Year and on the fifteenth (15th) day of each third (3rd) month thereafter. The last payment of Percentage Rent shall be made on the fifteenth (15th) day after the expiration or termination of the Term and shall be for a rent period ending on the last day of the Term. 7.3 Percentage Rent Computation. The amount of each quarterly payment of Percentage Rent shall be equal to Tenant's Percentage Rent Rate specified in Section 1.13 of the Gross Receipts for the immediately preceding Percentage Rent Period in excess of one-quarter (1/4) of the annual Gross Receipts as specified in Section 1.13. Percentage Rent Periods are successive three (3) month periods in each Lease Year, the first such Period commencing on the first day of the first full month of the Lease Year. For the purpose of computing the amounts payable as Percentage Rent for the first Percentage Rent Period and the first Lease Year, the Gross Receipts received during the first partial month, if any, shall be added to the Gross Receipts for the first Percentage Rent Period. The amount of the last payment of Percentage Rent, if for less than a full Percentage Rent Period, shall be a sum equivalent to the amount, if any, by which the percentage designated above of the Gross Receipts for the remaining Term following the last full Percentage Rent Period exceeds the Monthly Minimum Rent payable for the same remainder of the Term. 7.4 Adjustment of Percentage Rent Payments. If at the end of any Lease Year the total amount of Percentage Rent paid by Tenant exceeds the total amount of Percentage Rent required to be paid for such Lease Year, Tenant shall receive a credit equivalent to such excess which shall be deducted from subsequent Percentage Rent payments. If, at the end of any Lease Year or at the time of the last payment of Percentage Rent following expiration or Termination, the total amount of the Percentage Rent paid by Tenant for such Lease Year or partial Lease Year is less than the total amount of Percentage Rent required to be paid for such Lease Year or partial Lease Year, Tenant shall pay such deficit to Landlord at the time the annual or final report is submitted by Tenant to Landlord as required by Section 8.2. Any excess payment of Percentage Rent which has not been returned due to the amount of subsequent Percentage Rent payments available for credit, shall be paid to Tenant at the time the last payment of Percentage Rent would be due. 7.5 Interest, Late Payment, and Check Charges. All rent, additional rent, and other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease shall bear interest at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum from ten (10) days from the date due until paid. In addition to interest and because of administrative expenses incident to delinquent payments, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount not paid when within ten (10) days from the date due. The payment of such late charge shall not excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this Lease. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the sum of fifty ($50) dollars for each check given by Tenant to Landlord that is not honored for payment (NSF check). Interest, late charges, and NSF check charges shall be due from Tenant to Landlord without notice or demand. 7.6 Payment.

Tenant agrees to indemnify and save Landlord harmless from all claims and demands of any and every character that may be made, presented, or allowed against Landlord by reason or on account of any injuries or damage received or sustained from the date hereof by any person or property arising out of or related to any activity of Tenant on the Premises, or any condition of the Premises in the possession of or under the control of Tenant, and including without limitation, claims, loss, or liability arising during or after the Term as a result of contamination by Hazardous Material (defined in Article 3) as a result of Tenant's, or Tenant's agent's or contractor's use or activities, but excluding any claims, loss, or liability which may be solely caused by Landlord's negligence or failure to effect any repair or maintenance required of Landlord by this Lease; and in the event that any suit or action for damages resulting therefrom shall be brought against Landlord by any person whomsoever, Tenant agrees at Tenant's own cost and expense to defend Landlord against any such suit or action and all appeals therefrom, to satisfy and discharge any judgment or decree that may be awarded against Landlord in any such proceeding, and to pay all costs, expenses, and reasonable attorney fees incurred on any appeal in such litigation. Without limiting the foregoing, if the presence of any Hazardous Material caused or permitted by Tenant or its agents or contractors results in any contamination, Tenant shall promptly take all actions at its sole expense as are necessary to return the contaminated property to the condition existing prior to the release of any such Hazardous Material, provided that Landlord's approval of such actions shall first be obtained, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as such actions would not potentially have any material adverse long-term or short-term effect. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. In addition to the foregoing, except for Tenant's negligence, Landlord does hereby indemnify and hold harmless Tenant from and against all claims, liabilities, damages, causes of action, suits, judgments, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from an incident in, on, or about the Center or Common Area or any other space under the control and supervision of Landlord, or <PAGE> arising out of any willful misconduct or negligence of Landlord, its agents, licensees, employees, or contractors in the Center, Common Area, or in the Premises. In the event any such action is brought against Tenant by reason of any such claim, Landlord shall defend at its own cost and expense such action or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Tenant. 23.2 Tenant's Liability Insurance. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain public liability and property damage insurance against liability for injuries to persons and property with respect to the Premises and the business operated by Tenant and by any licensee, concessionaires, and tenants of Tenant, with, subject to the provisions of 23.7 below, a single limit of one million ($1,000,000.00) dollars for any one occurrence. Such insurance policy or policies of Tenant shall name Landlord and any persons, firms, or corporation designated by Landlord as additional insured and shall contain cross-liability endorsements. 23.3 Tenant's Hazard Insurance. Tenant shall, at its cost, maintain on all its personal property, Tenant's improvements and alterations in, on, or about the Premises, a policy of standard form fire and extended coverage insurance against all risks, including vandalism, malicious mischief, earthquake and flood endorsements to the extent of full replacement cost. The proceeds from any such policy shall be used by Tenant for the replacement of personal property or the restoration of Tenant's improvements or alterations unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to Article 25. 23.4 Plate Glass/Storefront Insurance. Tenant shall at all times maintain plate glass insurance on all interior and exterior plate glass windows and doors on the Premises. 23.5 Worker's Compensation and Employer's Liability Insurance. Tenant shall procure such worker's compensation insurance as is required by state law and shall promptly pay the premiums therefor. In addition, Tenant shall procure and maintain employer's liability insurance in an amount not less than one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). If Landlord is required to remove any lien for Tenant's failure to pay such premiums, Landlord, in addition to its other remedies, may discharge such lien and charge Tenant therefor as additional rent. 23.6 General Provisions. The policy or policies of insurance maintained by Tenant shall provide that the insurer will not cancel or change the insurance without first giving Landlord thirty (30) days prior written notice. The insurance shall be in an insurance company or companies approved by Landlord and qualified to do business in the state in which the Premises are located. The insurance shall be issued as a primary policy or policies, or if under a blanket policy, shall provide for continuation of the coverage and limits required by this Lease, irrespective of other losses unrelated to the Premises. Tenant shall file with Landlord or Landlord's agent certified copies of certificates of insurance showing that the required coverage conforming with the foregoing is afforded under blanket policies prior to occupancy of the Premises. Landlord may require Tenant to increase the aforesaid maximum limits of coverage to keep pace with the trend in insurance coverage during the Term. 23.7 Landlord's Hazard Insurance. Landlord shall maintain (in accordance with Section 9.1) on the building and other improvements in which the Premises are located a policy of standard form fire and extended coverage insurance, with vandalism, malicious mischief, earthquake and flood endorsements, to the extent of full replacement cost. 23.8 Waiver of Subrogation. Each party shall cause each insurance policy obtained by it to provide that the insurance company waives all right of recovery by way of subrogation against either party in connection with any damage or loss covered by any policy. Neither party shall be liable to the other for any damage or loss insured against under any insurance policy maintained by either party. The waivers provided in this Section shall be applicable and effective only in the event such waivers are obtainable from the insurance carriers concerned and at no additional cost to Landlord or Tenant. 23.9 Hazardous Use. Tenant agrees that it will not keep, use, sell, or offer for sale in or upon the Premises any article which may be prohibited by the insurance maintained by Landlord or Tenant. Tenant agrees to pay any differences between the rate of premiums for insurance which may be maintained by Landlord on the Premises resulting from the use of the Premises made by Tenant, whether or not Landlord has consented to the same, and the rate charged for such insurance for the least hazardous type of occupancy legally permitted on the Premises. In the determination of whether <PAGE> increased premiums were the result of Tenant's use of the Premises, a schedule, issued by the organization making the insurance rate of the Premises, showing the various components of such rate, shall be conclusive evidence of the several items and charges which make up the insurance rate on the Premises. Bills for such additional premiums shall be rendered by Landlord to Tenant at such times as Landlord may elect, and shall be due from, and payable by Tenant when rendered. ARTICLE 24. LOSS AND DAMAGES Landlord shall not be liable for any damage to property of Tenant or of others located on the Premises, nor for the loss of or damage to any property of Tenant or of others by theft or otherwise. Landlord shall not be liable for any injury or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, or other casualty, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, water, rain or snow or leaks from any part of the Premises or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works or from the roof, street or sub-surface or from any other place or by dampness or by any other cause of whatsoever nature. Landlord shall not be liable for any such damage caused by other tenants or persons in the Premises, caused by occupants of adjacent property, caused by members of the public, or caused by operations in construction of any private, public, or quasi-public work. Landlord shall not be liable for any latent defect in the Premises or in the building of which they form a part except for a period of three months from the date Tenant takes possession of the Premises unless otherwise specified in Exhibit C. All property of Tenant kept or stored on the Premises shall be so kept or stored at the risk of Tenant only and Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from any claims arising out of damage to the same. ARTICLE 25. FIRE AND OTHER CASUALTY 25.1 Insured Loss. If, during the Term, the Premises or the building in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed from a risk covered by the insurance described in Section 23.7, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord shall restore the Premises or the building in which the Premises are located to substantially the same condition as they were in immediately before destruction. The term "building" as used in this Article includes only buildings owned by Landlord. 25.1.1 Commencement of Restoration. Landlord shall commence restoration within ninety (90) days after the destruction and prosecute the same diligently to completion. 25.1.2 Termination. Such destruction shall not terminate this Lease except as provided in this Article. If existing laws do not permit the restoration, either party may terminate this Lease by giving notice to the other party. If Landlord's mortgage requires that the insurance proceeds be applied against the Landlord's mortgage, then Landlord may, upon notice to Tenant within ninety (90) days of the destruction, elect to terminate this Lease. 25.1.3 Loss Near End of Term. In the event of a partial or total destruction of the Premises or the building in which the Premises are located during the last two years of the Term, Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within ninety (90) days of the destruction. For the purpose of this Section 25.1.3, "partial destruction" means destruction for which the restoration cost will exceed one-third (_) of the then full replacement cost of the Premises or building in which the Premises are located. 25.2 Uninsured Loss. If, during the Term, the Premises or the building in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed from a risk not covered by the insurance which Landlord elects to carry pursuant to Section 10.1, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord may within ninety (90) days of the destruction commence to restore the Premises or the building in which the Premises are located to substantially the same condition as they were in immediately before destruction and prosecute the same diligently to completion, or Landlord may elect not to restore and to terminate this Lease. In either event, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of its intention within the ninety (90) day period. 25.3 Loss to the Center. If there is destruction to any part or all of the buildings comprising more than one-half (1/2) of the leasable area owned by Landlord in the Center or for which the restoration cost will exceed one-third (_) of the then full replacement cost of the buildings, Landlord <PAGE> may, upon notice to Tenant within ninety (90) days of the destruction, elect to terminate this Lease, provided that Landlord terminates the leases of all tenants in the building in which the Premises are located. 25.4 Restoration. In the event that restoration of the Premises is undertaken, it shall be in conformity with the provisions of Exhibit C. Landlord shall be responsible for Landlord's work described in Exhibit C. Landlord's responsibility to restore shall not include Tenant's work under Exhibit C or Tenant's alterations, improvements, trade fixtures, stock in trade, signs, or other personal property, all of which shall be Tenant's responsibility to restore and shall be at Tenant's expense. Tenant shall commence its restoration responsibility promptly upon delivery of possession of the Premises for that purpose and shall diligently prosecute the same to completion. 25.5 Rent Adjustment. From the date of destruction to the date of completion of restoration or the date of termination of this Lease, whichever occurs first, the Monthly Minimum Rent shall be reduced or abated proportionately with the extent to which the destruction interferes with Tenant's use of the Premises. The obligation of Tenant to pay Percentage Rent and items of additional rent shall remain in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no abatement of rent if the destruction was the fault of Tenant or his licensees, concessionaires, or tenants of Tenant unless Landlord is reimbursed for such abatement of rent pursuant to any rental insurance that Landlord in its sole discretion may elect to maintain. 25.6 Effect of Termination. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Article, termination shall be effective ten (10) days after giving the required notice. If the Lease is terminated, all proceeds from Tenant's insurance required under Section 23.3 covering the items of Landlord's work in Exhibit C and Tenant's fixtures (except moveable trade fixtures), alterations, additions, and improvements described in Article 18 shall be paid to Landlord. 25.7 Continuous Operations. Tenant agrees during any period of reconstruction or repair of the Premises to continue the operation of its business in the Premises to the extent reasonably practicable. ARTICLE 26. EMINENT DOMAIN 26.1 Definitions. The term "takes by (or taken or taking by) eminent domain" shall include the exercise of any power of condemnation, whether by public authority or private corporation and any purchase or other acquisition in lieu of condemnation. The expression "date of taking" means the date the order adjudicating public use becomes final or the date the authority exercising its right of "eminent domain" shall agree to the purchase price in lieu of condemnation. 26.2 Total Condemnation of Premises. If a condemning authority takes by eminent domain all of the Premises or a portion thereof sufficient to render the remaining Premises reasonably unsuitable for the use which Tenant was then making of the Premises, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of taking. Neither Tenant, nor the licensees, concessionaires, or tenants of Tenant shall have any claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for the value of any unexpired Term. 26.3 Partial Condemnation. If a condemning authority takes by eminent domain a portion of the Premises which is not extensive enough to render the Premises unsuitable for the business of Tenant, then Landlord shall promptly restore the Premises to a condition comparable to its condition on the date of taking less the portion lost in the taking, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as to the remainder of the Premises. The Monthly Minimum Rent payable by Tenant for the balance of the Term shall be abated in the ratio that the square footage ground area of the Premises taken bears to the total ground area of the Premises immediately prior to such taking. 26.4 Total Condemnation of Center. If a condemning authority takes by eminent domain any substantial part of the Center, this Lease, at the option of Landlord, shall terminate as of the date of taking. Neither Tenant, nor the licensees, concessionaires, or tenants of Tenant shall have any claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for the value of any unexpired Term. <PAGE> 26.5 Damages. In the event of any taking by eminent domain as aforesaid, whether whole, partial, or affecting parking facilities or other buildings outside the Premises, Tenant shall not be entitled to any part of the award paid for such taking and Landlord is to receive the full amount of such award, whether for diminution in the value of the leasehold or for the fee of the Premises, Tenant hereby expressly waiving any right or claim to any part thereof. Nothing herein shall be construed to preclude Tenant from receiving compensation or damages from the condemning authority for its relocation expenses, the taking of its moveable trade fixtures and removable personal property and the interruption of or damage to Tenant's business, provided that such claim does not diminish Landlord's award, and further provided that any such claim by Tenant shall be subject and subordinate to the claim of the first mortgagee. ARTICLE 27. SUBORDINATION, ATTORNMENT, AND ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES 27.1 Subordination and Nondisturbance. This Lease is and shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgages that are now or may hereafter be placed on the Premises and to all modifications, renewals, extensions, and replacements thereof, provided that the mortgagees shall agree to recognize this Lease in the event of foreclosure or sale if Tenant is not then in default. Tenant will execute, acknowledge, and deliver any instrument requested by Landlord upon demand to assure the subordination of this Lease. If any mortgagee elects to have this Lease superior to its mortgage by notice to Tenant, then this Lease shall be deemed superior to such mortgage. 27.2 Attornment. In the event that the Premises are sold in connection with the judicial or non-judicial foreclosure of any mortgage or by voluntary conveyance by Landlord, Tenant shall (at the election of the purchaser) attorn to the purchaser as Landlord herein and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding that it may have been terminated by said foreclosure. In the event that the Premises are transferred by voluntary conveyance by Landlord, Tenant shall attorn to the transferee as Landlord herein. 27.3 Estoppel Certificates. Tenant agrees at any time upon demand by the Landlord to execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord, within fifteen (15) days of request, a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), stating the dates to which the rent and other charges have been paid in advance, if any, confirming Tenant's acceptance of the Premises, the commencement of the Term, and the rent provided under the Lease, stating whether Landlord is in default under the Lease and whether there are any set-offs or defenses against enforcement of any right or remedy of Landlord or duty or obligation of Tenant (and specifying the same). It is intended that any such statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser, mortgagee, or assignee of any mortgages of the Premises or the Center. ARTICLE 28. INVOLUNTARY ASSIGNMENT 28.1 Involuntary Assignment. No interest of Tenant in this Lease shall be assignable by operation of law (including, without limitation, the transfer of this Lease by testacy or intestacy). An involuntary assignment shall constitute a default by Tenant and Landlord shall have the right to elect to terminate this Lease, in which case this Lease shall not be treated as an asset of Tenant. Each of the following acts shall be considered an involuntary assignment: 28.1.1 Insolvency or Creditors Proceedings. An assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or the filing by or against Tenant of any proceeding under any insolvency or bankruptcy law; or, if Tenant is a partnership or consists of more than one person or entity, the occurrence of any of the foregoing acts by or against any partner of the partnership or other related person or entity; 28.1.2 Attachment or Execution. Levy of a writ of attachment or execution on this Lease; 28.1.3 Appointment of Receiver. In any proceeding or action to which Tenant is a party, appointment of a receiver with authority to take possession of the Premises. <PAGE> 28.2 Effect of Involuntary Assignment. An involuntary assignment shall constitute a default by Tenant and Landlord shall have the right to elect to terminate this Lease, in which case the Lease shall not be treated as an asset of Tenant. ARTICLE 29. VOLUNTARY ASSIGNMENT 29.1 Consent Required. Tenant shall not voluntarily assign or encumber its interest in this Lease or in the Premises, or grant any license or concession or sublease all or any part of the Premises, or allow any other person or entity to occupy or use all or any part of the Premises, without first obtaining Landlord's written consent which may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion. Any assignment, encumbrance, license, concession, sublease, occupancy, or use without consent shall be voidable and, at Landlord's election, shall constitute a default. No consent to any assignment, encumbrance, sublease, occupancy, or use shall constitute a further waiver of the provisions of this Article. 29.2 Effect of Change in Partnership. If Tenant is a partnership, a withdrawal or change, voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, of any partner, or the dissolution of the partnership, shall be deemed a voluntary assignment. 29.3 Effect of Individual Transfer. If Tenant consists of more than one person, a purported assignment, voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, from one or more persons to another person or persons shall be deemed a voluntary assignment. 29.4 Effect of Change in Corporation or Limited Liability Company. If Tenant is a corporation or limited liability company, any dissolution, merger, consolidation, or other reorganization of Tenant, or the sale or other transfer of a controlling percentage of the capital stock or membership interests of Tenant, or the sale of more than one-half (1/2) of the value of the assets of Tenant, shall be deemed a voluntary assignment. The phrase "controlling percentage" means the ownership of, and the right to vote, stock or membership interests possessing more than one-half (1/2) of the total combined voting power of all classes of Tenant's capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote for the election of directors or one-half (1/2) of all membership interests. This Section shall not apply to corporations the stock of which is traded through an exchange or over the counter. 29.5 Assignment of Rent. Tenant immediately and irrevocably assigns to Landlord as security for Tenant's obligations under this Lease, all rent, deposit and/or prepaid rent, from any assignment, subletting of all or a part of the Premises, encumbrance, occupancy or use, and Landlord, as assignee and as attorney-in-fact for Tenant, or a receiver for Tenant appointed on Landlord's application, may collect such rent and apply it toward Tenant's obligations under this Lease; except that, until Landlord exercises its option to declare Tenant in default, Tenant shall have the right to collect rent. 29.6 Increase in Rent. In the event of an assignment or sublease of Tenant's interest or a part thereof in this Lease, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether with Landlord's consent or pursuant to law, Landlord shall be entitled to increase the Monthly Minimum Rent and the percentage by which Percentage Rent is computed to the then current market level for Monthly Minimum Rent and Percentage Rent for the Premises for the use permitted under this Lease. 29.7 Assignment Fee. In the event that Landlord shall consent to a sublease, assignment, or transfer hereunder, Tenant shall pay Landlord reasonable fees, not to exceed $500 incurred in connection with the processing of documents necessary to giving of such consent. 29.8 Continuing Liability. Regardless of Landlord's consent, no subletting, assignment, hypothecation, license, or concession shall release Tenant of Tenant's obligation or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the rental and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of rental by landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by landlord of any provision hereof. ARTICLE 30. WASTE, NUISANCE, AND ENVIRONMENTAL <PAGE> 30.1 Waste or Nuisance. Tenant shall permit no damage to or defacement of the Premises nor shall Tenant commit or suffer to be committed any waste upon the Premises or permit any nuisance or other act or thing which may disturb the quiet enjoyment of any other tenant in the building in which the Premises may be located, or in the Center, or which may disturb the quiet enjoyment of any person outside of the boundaries of the Center. 30.2 Compliance with Law. Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall comply with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances, directions, regulations, and requirements of federal, state, county, and municipal authorities pertaining to Tenant's use of the Premises and with all recorded covenants, conditions, and restrictions, regardless of when they become effective. These include, without limitation, any requiring alteration of the Premises because of Tenant's specific use, and all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, or ordinances pertaining to air and water quality, Hazardous Materials (as defined in Section 3.6), waste disposal, air emissions, and other environmental matters, all zoning and other land use matters, and utility availability, and with any direction of any public officer or officers, pursuant to law, which shall impose any duty upon Landlord or Tenant with respect to the use or occupation of the Premises. 30.3 Permits. In the furtherance of, and not in limitation of, Tenant's obligations under the foregoing Section, throughout the term of this Lease, Tenant shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect permits required for the conduct of its business and operations from the time of execution of this Lease until its expiration or termination. 30.4 Use of Hazardous Material. Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Material to be brought upon, kept, or used in our about the Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, or invitees without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld as long as Tenant demonstrates to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction that such Hazardous Material is necessary or useful to Tenant's business and will be used, kept, and stored in a manner that complies with all laws regulating any such Hazardous Material so brought upon or used or kept in or about the Premises. ARTICLE 31. ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION 31.1 Promotional Program. Landlord shall conduct an advertising, promotional, and public relations program for the general purpose of furthering the interests of all tenants in the Center. Landlord shall determine in its sole discretion the composition and manner of implementation of such program. 31.2 Merchants' Association. Upon commencement of the Term, Tenant shall become a member of the Merchants' Association. Tenant shall thereafter participate fully in and remain in good standing in the Merchants' Association throughout the Term. Tenant shall pay dues to the Merchants' Association in the amount specified in Section 31.3 of the Lease. Tenant shall maintain membership in the Seaside Chamber of Commerce during the Term. 31.3 Tenant's Contribution. Tenant's initial annual contribution to the fund shall be at the rate provided in Section 1.18 per square foot of Tenant's leasable area. The contribution shall be paid as additional rent, one- twelfth (1/12) with each Monthly Minimum Rent payment. Once each year, by a notice to all of the tenants, Landlord may increase the annual contribution due (the Adjustment Period"). Said increase shall be established by increasing the contribution then being paid prior to the Adjustment Period by the same percentage that the Consumer Price Index For All Urban Consumers, all items, for the Portland, Oregon/Washington area 1982-84 equals 100, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Dept. of Labor ("C.P.I.") has increased since the previous adjustment. To determine the adjustment for each Adjustment Period, the contribution then being paid shall be multiplied by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the C.P.I. for the half of the calendar year immediately preceding the Adjustment Period and the numerator of which shall be the C.P.I. for the half of the calendar year immediately preceding the commencement of the Adjustment Period. Provided, however, in no event shall the contribution be reduced below the contribution being paid immediately preceding the Adjustment Period for which a redetermination is being made. In the event the numerator of said fraction is not available on the commencement of the Adjustment Period, Tenant shall continue to pay the contribution then being paid, and the parties shall promptly adjust and Tenant <PAGE> shall promptly pay any amounts due at such time as the C.P.I. needed to make the appropriate adjustment is available. In the event there are any changes in the basis for the C.P.I. or a change is made in the term or number of items contained in the C.P.I., or if the C.P.I. is altered, modified, converted or revised in any other way, then the C.P.I. shall be adjusted by Landlord to the figure that would have been arrived at had the change in the manner of computing the C.P.I. in effect at the date of this Lease not been altered. If the C.P.I. is no longer published by said Bureau, then any substitute or successor index published by said Bureau or other governmental agency of the United States and similarly adjusted as aforesaid, shall be utilized by Landlord for purposes of this subparagraph. If the C.P.I. is not available, a reliable governmental or other reputable publication selected by Landlord and similarly evaluating the information heretofore used in determining the C.P.I. shall be used. 31.4 Grand Opening. Tenant agrees to pay with the first month rent a one-time grand opening assessment at the rate provided in Section 1.18 per square foot of Tenant's gross leasable area. 31.5 Joint Advertisements. The Board of Directors of the Merchants' Association shall have the authority to designate certain editions, volumes, and numbers of newspaper publications as appropriate for the publication of joint advertisements by the members of the Merchants' Association. Tenant shall purchase space in such joint advertisements in not less than twelve (12) such publications each Lease Year. Tenant shall purchase not less than the smallest space increment available in the joint advertisement. Tenant's advertisement shall include the name under which Tenant does business on the Premises, a general description of Tenant's merchandise, Tenant's telephone number at the Premises, and the name of the Center. Tenant may apply amounts so expanded toward the fulfillment of Tenant's obligation under Section 31.5. If Tenant fails to purchase space in the required number of joint advertisements in any Lease Year, Tenant shall not later than January 31 of the immediately succeeding Lease Year pay to the Merchants' Association Promotional Fund $100 for each joint advertisement less than the required number of joint advertisements participated in by Tenant. 31.6 Advertising. Tenant shall expend an amount each Lease Year equal to not less than one and one-half percent (1 1/2%) of Tenant's Gross Sales for such Lease Year on advertising to promote Tenant's business on the Premises. Tenant shall furnish to Landlord on or before January 31 of the succeeding Lease Year a statement certified as accurate by Tenant setting forth the amounts expended on advertising during such Lease Year together with copies of receipts for all such expenditures. 31.7 Accounting. On or before January 31 of each Lease Year during the Term, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord a statement certified as accurate by Tenant setting forth the amounts expended by Tenant to advertise Tenant's business on the Premises during the preceding Lease Year, together with copies of all receipts and other records evidencing such expenditures. If Tenant has failed to expend an amount equal to one and one-half percent (1%) of Tenant's Gross Sales during such preceding Lease Year, Tenant shall immediately pay an amount equal to the deficiency to the Merchants' Association Promotional Fund. Amounts so paid shall be in addition to any amounts paid to the Merchants' Association Promotional Fund pursuant to Section 1.18. 31.8 Collection. Failure to pay any sum payable hereunder for a period of ten (10) days after the same is due shall be an event of default pursuant to Article 33 of this Lease. Upon the occurrence of such an event of default by Tenant, Landlord may, in addition to any other rights and remedies given under the Lease or by law, sue on behalf of the Merchants' Association to recover such unpaid sums and all damages caused by the default including attorneys' fees. ARTICLE 32. RIGHT OF ENTRY 32.1 Right of Entry. Landlord or Landlord's agents shall have the right to enter the Premises at all times to examine the same, to exhibit same to others, to make such repairs, alterations, improvements, or additions as Landlord may deem necessary or desirable and to gain entry to adjoining premises and roof areas for repairs thereof or otherwise, and Landlord shall be allowed to take all material into and upon the Premises that may be required therefor without the same constituting an eviction of Tenant in whole or in part and the rent reserved shall in no way abate while said repairs, alteration, improvements, or additions are being made, by reason of loss or interruption of business of Tenant, or otherwise unless otherwise specifically provided for herein and Tenant specifically hereby <PAGE> waives any clai m for damages for loss of business or otherwise, resulting from such repairs, alterations, improvements, or additions. 32.2 Entry in Tenant's Absence. If Tenant shall not be personally present to open and permit an entry into the Premises, at any time, when for any reason an entry therein shall be necessary or permissible, Landlord or Landlord's agents may enter the same by a master key, or may forcibly enter the same, without rendering Landlord or such agents liable therefor, and without in any manner affecting the obligations and covenants of this Lease. Nothing herein contained, however, shall be deemed or construed to impose upon Landlord any obligation, responsibility, or liability whatsoever, for the care, maintenance, or repair of the building or any part thereof, except as otherwise herein specifically provided. 32.3 Leasing Sign. During the six (6) months prior to the expiration of the Term, Landlord may place upon the Premises the usual "for lease" notices advertising the availability of the Premises for lease which notices Tenant shall permit to remain thereon without molestation. ARTICLE 33. DEFAULT 33.1 Tenant's Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant: 33.1.1 Failure to Pay Rent and Other Charges. Failure to pay any part of the rent, additional rent, or any other charges required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days after such rent, additional rent or other charges become due. 33.1.2 Abandonment. Abandonment or vacation of the Premises by Tenant or the failure by Tenant to be open for business for five (5) consecutive days, holidays excluded. 33.1.3 Involuntary Assignment or Insolvency. Involuntary assignment or insolvency as described in Article 28. 33.1.4 Failure to Perform Covenants, Conditions, and Obligations. Failure by Tenant to perform any of its covenants, conditions, or obligations under this Lease, except for failures covered by Sections 33.1.1, 33.1.2, or 33.1.3, if such failure continues for twenty (20) thirty (30) days after written notice by Landlord to Tenant thereof (or if such failure cannot be cured within twenty (20) thirty (30) days, then, if Tenant does not commence to attempt to cure such failure immediately upon notice and thereafter proceed with due diligence to cure the same). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if Tenant shall have been in default for the same or similar reason on two (2) occasions within the preceding twelve (12) months, then notice by Landlord to Tenant under this Section of a third failure to comply with this Lease for the same or similar reason shall constitute a default without a cure period and Landlord shall immediately have any or all of the remedies provided herein. 33.2 Landlord's Remedies. In the event of a default by Tenant, and without any further notice or demand to Tenant upon thirty (30) days written notice under the provisions of Article 35 herein, Landlord shall have the following remedies which are not exclusive; they are cumulative in addition to any remedies now or later allowed by law: 33.2.1 Termination. Declare the Term terminated and reenter the Premises. 33.2.2 Reentry. Reenter the Premises without declaring the Term terminated. 33.2.3 Termination Following Reentry. At any time after the reentry provided in Section 33.2.2, declare the Term terminated. 33.2.4 Compulsory and Binding Arbitration. This provision is expressly subject to the binding arbitration clause set forth in Article 37.22 hereto. <PAGE> 33.3 Rights Upon Reentry. Upon any reentry by Landlord, whether under this Lease or by summary proceedings, the Landlord may remove all persons and property from the Premises and may store the property in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the expense and risk of Tenant, all without being deemed guilty of trespass or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby. Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a security interest in all of Tenant's property located on the Premises to secure payment of all sums due from Tenant to Landlord under this Lease and all damages or loss which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's breach.

Should Landlord have reentered the Premises under the provisions of Section 33.2.2 above, Landlord shall not be deemed to have terminated this Lease or the liability of Tenant to pay any rent, additional rent, or other charges accrued or thereafter accruing or to have terminated Tenant's liability for damages hereunder by any such reentry or by any judicial action to obtain possession of the Premises. Service by Landlord of any notice pursuant to the unlawful detainer statutes shall not be deemed notice of termination. After such reentry, Landlord may from time to time relet for the account of Tenant the Premises or any part thereof upon such terms and for such length of time, whether greater or lesser than the unexpired portion of the Term as Landlord may reasonably provide. Tenant shall be immediately liable to Landlord for all costs of reletting the Premises including broker's commissions, legal fees, and other expenses of recovering possession, expenses of remodeling and repair of the Premises reasonably required and similar costs. Landlord shall receive all rent from the reletting, applying it first to the cost of reletting and then to payment of the Rental due from Tenant determined as provided in Section 33.7 below. If the rent from reletting received by Landlord in any month is less than the sum due from Tenant, Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord within ten (10) days of notice. 33.5 Notice of Termination; Damages. Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease either upon reentry as provided in Section 33.2.1 or at any time thereafter as provided in Section 33.2.3, Landlord may do so by written notice to Tenant. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, notice of termination shall be effective on the date of personal delivery or mailing in the manner provided in Article 35 unless provided otherwise in the notice. Upon termination for breach, Landlord may recover from Tenant as damages, the following: 33.5.1 Unpaid Earned Rental. The Worth at Time of Award (as hereafter defined) of any unpaid Rental (as hereafter defined) which had been earned at the time of termination; plus 33.5.2 Rental Between Termination and Award. The Worth at Time of Award of the amount by which the unpaid Rental that would have been earned after the date of termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of loss of rental that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus 33.5.3 Rental Following Award. The Worth at Time of Award of the amount by which the unpaid Rental for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of rental that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus 33.5.4 Other Damages. Any other amount, attorneys' fees, and court costs necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's default or due under the provisions of this Lease. 33.6 Worth at Time of Award Defined. As used in Sections 33.5.1 and 33.5.2, the "Worth at Time of Award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum legal rate but not to exceed fifteen percent (15%) per annum. As used in Section 33.5.3, the "Worth at Time of Award" is computed by discounting the amounts at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum. 33.7 Rent Defined. Unpaid Rental shall be deemed to be the sum of the following: 1) the Monthly Minimum Rent; (2) the monthly average of the Percentage Rent payable in respect of Gross Sales made in the Lease Year and fractional Lease Year (or fractional Lease Year only, if such termination occurs prior to the expiration of the first complete Lease Year) next preceding termination; <PAGE> 3) the Common Area Operating Cost; and 4) the amounts last payable by Tenant pursuant to Articles 9, 21, and 31 above. 33.8 Right to Cure Tenant's Default.

Any expense incurred by Landlord in curing such default shall be due from Tenant to Landlord upon demand by Landlord and shall bear interest at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum until paid. 33.9 Restoration. If Tenant fails to remove Tenant's furnishings, trade fixtures, equipment, and other personal property at expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease, Landlord may remove any and all personal property located in the Premises and place such property in a public or private warehouse or elsewhere. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for the cost of removal, transportation to storage, and storage. In the event that Tenant shall not immediately pay the cost of removal, transportation, and storage of such property after the same has been stored for a period of thirty (30) days or more, Landlord may sell any or all thereof at a public or private sale in such manner and at such times and places as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem proper, without notice to or demand upon Tenant. Tenant waives all claims for damages that may be caused by Landlord's removing or storing or selling the property as herein provided, and Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord free and harmless from and against any and all losses, costs, and damages, including without limitation all costs of court and attorneys' fees of Landlord occasioned thereby. 33.10 Landlord's Default.
