Option to Purchase the Premises
The Tenant shall have the option to purchase the premises described in
exhibit "a" and identified as Area I attached hereto and the building
to be built thereon at any time during the following option period.

    From and after the first day of the third lease year through the
last day of the fifth lease year, provided such option shall
terminate upon termination of this Lease for any reason.

The option price shall be determined by multiplying the base price,
hereinafter defined, by 60% of the increase of the Consumer Price Index
for All Urban Consumers for the Minneapolis/St. Paul Metropolitan Area
(all items) from the date of first occupancy to the date of closing.
The base price for purposes of this Agreement shall be $       .  In no
event shall the purchase be less than the base price herein es-
tablished.  The purchase price shall be reduced by the principal amount
of any mortgage that is outstanding against the premises at the time of

between the two parties.  Tenant will reimburse Landlord for its costs
related to the appraisals.

Tenant shall signify its intent to exercise the option contained above
in this section, if at all, by delivering to Lessor, its written notice

Such written notice must be delivered to the Landlord at least six (6)
months prior to the expiration of the fifth year term of the lease or
the Tenant shall be penalized as provided in section        of this
addendum.

Lessor shall, within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of
exercise of such option, furnish to Tenant an Abstract of title or
Registered Property abstract with proper searches to all lands included
in the premises.  Lessor also agrees to provide Tenant with Title
Insurance in the amount not less than the Fair Market Value of the
premises and the improvements constructed thereon.  After receipt of
the title Insurance binder and the Abstract, Tenant shall be allowed
thirty (30) days for examination of title and the making of objections
thereto.  Said objections shall be made in writing or be deemed to be
waived.  if any objections are so made, Lessor shall be allowed ninety
(90) days to make such title marketable.

If said title is not marketable and is not made so within ninety (90)
days from the date of written objection thereto, as above provided, any
agreement of purchase resulting from the exercise of such option shall,
at the option of Tenant, be null and void.  In such event neither party
shall be liable for damages under such resulting purchase agreement to
the other party.  Tenant shall exercise its option of declaring such
resulting purchase agreement null and void by delivering to Lessor a
written notice to such effect within twenty (20) days after the ex-
piration of the aforesaid ninety (90) day period.  Instead of declaring
the agreement null and void, Tenant may withhold from said option price
a sum sufficient to insure correction of such title and pay the balance
of the option price to Landlord.  All sums withheld by Tenant shall be
limited to such amounts as Title Insurance Company of Minnesota shall
determine to be reasonably necessary to insure correction of such de-
fects.  Any amount so withheld shall be placed in an interest-bearing
escrow account with Title Insurance company or its successors or
assigns, pending correction of title and upon correction paid over to
Lessor.  All interest accruing thereof shall be paid over to and be the
property of Lessor.  In such event, Lessor agrees to use its best ef-
forts to correct title defects at the earliest possible time.
Subject to performance by Tenant, Lessor agrees to execute and deliver
a Warranty Deed conveying marketable title to the premises, subject
only to restrictions and easements of record and reservation of any
minerals or mineral rights to the State of             , as of the date

and other Tenants in the building.

    (c)  Streets and highway rights-of-way as they now exist or may
then exist.

    (d)  Restrictions relating to the use and improvement of said Premises.

    (e)  Real estate taxes, special asessments or installments thereof
which are due and payable following the date of sale.

    (f)  Such mortgages as the Tenant may agree to assume prior to or
upon closing of the tranaction.

The Landlord agrees to deliver possession not later than the actual
date of closing.

In the event this property is destroyed or substantially damaged by
fire or any other cause before the closing date, this purchase option
agreement shall become null and void at the Tenant's option, and, in
addition, the Tenant shall not be liable to pay any penalties set forth
in section     of this addendum A.  If the Tenant does not terminate the
option agreement upon happening of such an event, the purchase price
shall be reduced by the amount of fire and         coverage insurance
proceeds paid to the Landlord by reason of such damage or de-
struction.  The closing of said sale, pursuant to the aforementioned
exercise of option, shall be on the 1st day of the fifth year of the
lease term, unless an earlier date is agreed upon in writing by the
parties.  The Landlord shall meet the Tenant at the Office of the Re-
corder of Deeds in the County and State in which the land purchased
hereunder is located, or at some other mutually agreed upon location.
The Landlord shall, upon receiving from Tenant the purchase price, exe-
cute and deliver a General Warranty Deed in recorda le form with owner
and homestead rights properly released, granting and conveying a good
and marketable title in fee simple to said above described land and
improvements free and clear of all encumbrances and liens for special
improvements now installed, whether assessed or not, subject only to
the matters set forth herein.  Real Estate Transfer Taxes shall be at
the expense of seller.  The parties further agree that pro-rata
adjustments for rents and other matters shall be made as of the time of
closing.

then the Tenant's obligation to pay rent for the remainder of the Lease
term shall be forgiven.  If closing occurs after the last day of the
Lease term, the            shall be under no obligation to pay rent for
the period of occupancy between the last day of lease term and the
actual date of closing.

within sixty (60) day period at the same price and on the same terms of

convey a merchantable title in fee simple to said real estate by good
and sufficient warranty deed, with release of dower, homestead,
courtesy, and other rights of the respective spouses, if any, and free

tions, Lessor will furnish to Lessee a guaranty policy issued by a ti-
tle insurance company acceptable to Lessee, in its usual form, brought
down to date of exercise, guaranteeing Lessee against loss or damage to
the extent of the purchase price by reason of defects in or liens upon
Lessor's title, subject to the usual exceptions contained in guaranty
policies of the issuing company.  Settlement of the purchase price and
conveyance to the Lessee shall be made within ninety (90) days from
date of exercise, but actual tender of the purchase price by the
purchaser or tender of deed by the seller shall not be necessary, and
neither party shall be in default until after written demand for
performance shall have been made by the other party.  Taxes, water,
rent, and other current expenses, and rent hereunder, shall be adjusted
as of the date of settlement.
