SUBLEASE (Suite 500) This Sublease is entered into this 23rd day of April, 1998, between SOUTHERN PACIFIC FUNDING CORPORATION ("Sublessor") and DIGIMARC CORPORATION ("Sublessee"). Sublessor is the tenant under a Lease from Property Reservices, Inc. ("Landlord'), dated September 13, 1995 (the "Lease"), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Lease covers Suite 500 in the building located at One Centerpointe Drive, Lake Oswego, Oregon. Sublessee wishes to sublease from Sublessor all of the premises covered by the Lease. NOW, THEREFORE, Sublessor hereby subleases the premises described in the attached Exhibit B (the "Premises"), an area of approximately 3,391 sq.ft., and Sublessee agrees to sublease the Premises from Sublessor on the following terms: 1. Term. The term of this Sublease shall commence on May 2, 1998, and shall continue through and including October 31, 2000. 2. Base Rent. Sublessee shall pay directly to Landlord base rent in the sum of $5,655.27 per month of the first day of each month of the sublease term. Base rent shall be escalated at the same time and in the same amount per square foot as the base rent paid by Sublessor to the Landlord under any escalation clause or expense pass-through clause of the Lease. 2.2 Additional Rent. Sublessee shall pay directly to Landlord all additional rent required under the Lease, including without limitation any Estimated Operating Expense Adjustments. Any refund of Estimated Operating Expense Adjustment payments for calendar year 1998 shall be prorated between Sublessor and Sublessee. 3. Sublease Consideration. Sublessee shall pay the sum of $5,655.27 as sublease consideration. Sublessor may apply the sublease consideration to pay the cost of performing any obligation which Sublessee fails to perform within the time required by this Sublease, but such application by Sublessor shall not be the exclusive remedy for Sublessee's default. If the sublease consideration is applied by Sublessor, Sublessee shall on demand pay the sum necessary to replenish the sublease consideration to its original amount. To the extent not applied by Sublessor to cure defaults by Sublessee, the sublease consideration shall be applied against the rent payable for the last month of the sublease term. The sublease consideration shall not be refundable. This sublease does not include an assignment by Sublessor to Sublessee of Sublessor's rights in the security deposit required under the Lease. 1 <PAGE> 4. Obligations of Sublessee. Sublessee shall perform all of the obligations of the tenant under the Lease as if Sublessee were the tenant under the Lease and Sublessor was the landlord under the Lease. The terms of the Lease are hereby expressly incorporated as part of this Sublease. In the event Sublessee fails to comply with such terms, or the terms of this Sublease, Sublessor shall be entitled to have all of the remedies granted to Landlord in the Lease, together with any other rights Sublessor might otherwise have. All provisions in the Lease dealing with indemnity and liability between Landlord and the tenant under the Lease shall be applicable as between both Sublessor and Sublessee and Landlord and Sublessee. Sublessee shall name both Sublessor and Landlord and Landlord's managing agent under the Lease as named insureds in the insurance policies it is required to obtain hereunder. 5. Representations of Sublessor. Sublessor represents and warrants that the Lease is in good standing and that Sublessor has, to the best of its knowledge, complied with all of its obligations thereunder through the date hereof. Sublessor represents and warrants that there is currently no default under the Lease and no factual situation that, but for the passage of time, would become a default. Sublessor shall not be obligated to perform, nor does it guarantee the performance of, Landlord's duties under the Lease. In the event of any default of Landlord, Sublessee shall send any required notices to landlord with a copy to Sublessor. Sublessee agrees that Sublessor's only obligation in such event will be to join with Sublessee, at Sublessee's expense, in making demand on Landlord to fulfill its obligations under the Lease. In no event shall Sublessee be allowed any abatement or diminution of rent under this sublease because of Landlord's failure to perform any of its obligations under the Lease, unless Sublessor is likewise allowed an abatement or diminution of rent under the Lease. 6. Condition of the Premises. Sublessor shall clean the carpeting and do "spot" painting within the Premises as necessary so that the Premises are in "like new" condition after the painting. In all other respects, the Premises are leased as is, in the condition now existing, with no additional work to be performed by Sublessor or Landlord. 7. Notices. With respect to notices between Sublessor and Sublessee, the addresses for notice shall be the addresses state din this Sublease. 8. Waiver of Subrogation.

Renewal Option and right of First Refusal. Sublessee shall have no right to exercise the renewal option provided in Section 3.02 of Addendum A to the Lease nor the right of first refusal provided in Section 3.03 of Addendum A to the Lease unless prior to or simultaneously with exercising such options Sublessee obtains the complete release from Landlord of Sublessor of all further obligations under the Lease. 2 <PAGE> 10.
