AGENO 1992 REVOCABLE TRUST, and KAY ENTERPRISES, a California general partnership (collectively, "Landlord"), and TFS ELECTRONIC MANUFACTURING SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Tenant"). GRANT Landlord, for and in consideration of the rents, covenants and agreements hereinafter reserved and contained on the part of Tenant, its successors and assigns, to be paid, kept, observed and performed, does hereby lease, rent, let and demise unto Tenant, and Tenant does hereby take and hire, upon and subject to the covenants, conditions and limitations hereinafter contained, the entirety of Building One (the "Building") located as shown and designated on the Site Plan attached hereto as EXHIBIT A (the "Site Plan") and containing approximately 135,286 square feet of rentable floor area as shown in the floor plan attached hereto as EXHIBIT A-1 (the "Premises"). The Premises are part of the property known as Willows Commerce Park (the "Park"), shown on the Site Plan and situated in the City of Redmond, County of King and State of Washington, described in EXHIBIT B attached hereto and made a part hereof, and Tenant is also hereby granted the non-exclusive license to use, in common with Landlord and other tenants of the Park and their respective officers, directors, licensees, permittees, and customers, all Common Areas (as hereinafter defined) of the Park and all rights appurtenant to the Premises as the same may exist from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. ARTICLE I. TERM OF LEASE SECTION 1.1 TERM OF LEASE. The initial term of this Lease shall be seven (7) years and shall commence on the date of mutual execution of this Lease (the "Commencement Date"), and shall end at midnight on December 31, 2011. The initial term of the Lease, as set forth above, is sometimes hereinafter referred to as the "Initial Term." Any reference to the term of this Lease or similar reference shall be a reference to the Initial Term together with any renewal terms (if any) of this Lease or any extensions to or modifications of the Initial Term (sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Term"). SECTION 1.2 OPTION TO RENEW. Tenant shall have the right, subject to all provisions of this Section 1.2, to extend the term of this Lease for one (1) successive period of five (5) years commencing on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Commencement Date and ending at midnight on the day prior to the twelfth (12th) anniversary of the Commencement Date (the "Renewal Term"), provided that: 1 (a) This Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not in default in the performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions herein contained (after receipt of notice and expiration of any applicable cure period) at the time of exercise of the right of renewal or at the time set for commencement of the Renewal Term; (b) Tenant shall exercise its right to the Renewal Term provided herein, if at all, by notice to Landlord in writing of its election to exercise the right to renew the term of this Lease, at least twelve (12) months prior to the last day of the Initial Term; and (c) The Renewal Term shall be upon the same terms, covenants and conditions as provided in this Lease; provided, however, that the monthly Basic Rent shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the then "fair market rent" (defined below) for the Premises. For purposes of this Lease, "fair market rent" shall mean the rental rate per rentable square foot that willing, non-equity tenants are paying for comparable space in the Park and in comparable buildings in the Redmond area for leases having a five-year term, considering all relevant factors, including the Building improvements, fixtures and other property comprising the Premises or leased hereunder (including the Personalty), market rent escalation, and market rate allowances, concessions and commissions. Landlord shall advise Tenant in writing of Landlord's determination of fair market rent for the Premises not later than thirty (30) days after Tenant gives notice to Landlord that Tenant exercises its renewal right. Within thirty (30) days after notice of Landlord's determination of fair market rent, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether or not Tenant accepts Landlord's determination of fair market rent. If Tenant disagrees with Landlord's determination of fair market rent, Tenant shall advise Landlord of Tenant's determination of fair market rent in the notice required pursuant to the preceding sentence. If Tenant fails to notify Landlord within such thirty-day period, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing that failure to provide Tenant's determination within ten (10) days after the notice shall mean that Tenant's notice exercising its renewal rights under this Section 1.2 shall be deemed null and void. If Tenant, within such ten-day period, provides Tenant's determination to Landlord then such determination shall be deemed to have been timely made. If Tenant does not accept Landlord's determination of fair market rent, and Tenant has given the notice required above, the parties shall promptly meet and attempt to resolve their differences. If the parties have not agreed on the fair market rent within ninety (90) days after Tenant has exercised its renewal right, then, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, the parties shall submit the matter to arbitration in accordance with the terms described below. The last day of such ninety-day period shall be referred to in this Lease as the "Arbitration Commencement Date." The arbitration will be conducted by a single MAI real estate appraiser who has been active over the five-year period ending on the Arbitration Commencement Date in the appraisal of office and warehouse properties in the Redmond/Woodinville/Bothell area and has not worked for either party during that time, hi the event that the parties cannot agree 2 upon the appraiser, the appraiser will be appointed by the Seattle office of the American Arbitration Association upon the application of either party. Within thirty (30) days after the selection of the appraiser, the appraiser shall determine the fair market rent by selecting either the Landlord's or the Tenant's last determination of fair market rent, which determination may be modified by either party by notice to the other party given not later than ten (10) days after the Arbitration Commencement Date. The arbitrator may not select any other figure and shall have no power to modify the provisions of this Lease. The determination of the arbitrator will be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. The cost of the Arbitration will be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant. ARTICLE II. BASIC RENT SECTION 2.1 INITIAL GROSS RENT PERIOD. During the period from the Commencement Date through December 31, 2004 (the "Gross Rent Period"), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without demand, setoff or deduction whatsoever, at the office of Landlord set forth in Section 2.2 below, the sum of $40,631.25 per month in advance. Landlord hereby agrees to grant Tenant a rent credit during the first two (2) months of the Gross Rent Period equal to $26,921.66 per month. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, including without limitation Article IV (Common Area Charges and Impositions), Tenant shall have no obligation during the Gross Rent Period to pay Common Area Costs and Taxes attributable to the Premises to the extent such charges are not greater than the costs for such items during the period of Tenant's occupancy of a portion of the Premises under that Sublease Agreement dated May 11, 2004 (the "Sublease") between SR Telecom Inc., as sublessor, and Tenant, as sublessee. During the Gross Rent Period, Tenant shall be responsible for any excess of such costs over the amounts for same during the Sublease term, together with all other sums and charges imposed on Tenant under this Lease that are not expressly covered by this Section 2.1. The parties acknowledge that the Sublease shall be terminated on or before the Commencement Date in connection with the Termination Agreement (defined in Section 19.35). On and after expiration of the Gross Rent Period, Tenant shall pay when due all sums and charges required to be paid by it under this Lease, including without limitation Common Area Costs and Taxes in accordance with the terms of this Lease. SECTION 2.2 BASIC RENT. In consideration of the leasing of the Premises under this Lease, Tenant covenants to pay Landlord, without previous demand therefor and without any right of setoff or deduction whatsoever (except as otherwise specifically permitted in this Lease), at the office of Landlord at: Willows Commerce Park c/o Kessler & Kessler 1000 Marina Village Parkway, Suite 130 Alameda, CA 94501 3 or at such other place or account as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, a base monthly rental in the amount of $92,500.00 payable monthly, in advance, commencing on January 1, 2005, and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter for the balance of the Term, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.3. The rent provided for in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 is hereinafter called the "Basic Rent." Basic Rent in the amount of $92,500 for the first full month after the Rent Commencement Date shall be paid to Landlord upon execution of this Lease. If the Term of this Lease does not commence on the first day of a calendar month or end on the last day of a calendar month, the installment of Basic Rent for the partial calendar month at the commencement or the termination of the term shall be prorated on the basis of the number of days of the term within such calendar month. SECTION 2.3 BASIC RENT ADJUSTMENT. Commencing on January 1, 2006 and effective on January 1 of each year thereafter during the Term of this Lease, the Basic Rent shall be increased by an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Basic Rent applicable during the immediately preceding year. For example, the Basic Rent for the period of January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006 shall be $95,275.00 per month ($92,500.00 x 1.03), and the Basic Rent for the period of January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007 shall be $98,133.25 ($95,275.00 x 1.03). SECTION 2.4 ADDITIONAL RENT. All sums of money (other than Basic Rent) that Tenant is required to pay to Landlord or any third party under this Lease is referred to herein as "Additional Rent", including without limitation any imposition, insurance premium, utility charge, maintenance repair or replacement expense which Tenant is obligated hereunder to pay. In the event Tenant fails to pay any Additional Rent when due, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to pay the same after first providing Tenant with ten (10) days written notice specifying the payment to be made, and in that event Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord therefor, and Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and save Landlord harmless from and against any claim, liability, expense, loss or damage arising from or related to Additional Rent and Tenant's failure to pay Additional Rent as required hereunder. SECTION 2.5 DELINQUENT PAYMENTS. All payments of Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be payable without previous demand therefor and without any right of setoff or deduction whatsoever (except as specifically provided herein), and in case of nonpayment of any item of Additional Rent by Tenant when the same is due, Landlord shall have, in addition to all its other rights and remedies, all of the rights and remedies available to Landlord under the provisions of this Lease or by law in the case of nonpayment of Basic Rent. The performance and observance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements to be performed or observed by Tenant hereunder shall be performed and observed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Any installment of Basic Rent or Additional Rent or any other charges payable by Tenant under the provisions hereof which shall not be paid when due shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to twelve percent (12%) from the date when the same is due hereunder until the same shall be paid, but in no event in excess of the maximum lawful rate permitted to be charged by Landlord against Tenant. Said rate of interest is sometimes hereinafter referred to as the "Maximum Rate of Interest." 4 In addition, any installment of Basic Rent or Additional Rent or any other charges payable by Tenant under the provisions hereof which shall not be paid when due and which remain unpaid ten days thereafter shall be subject to a late payment fee of three percent (3%) of the unpaid amount, provided that such late fee shall not apply to the first instance of such late payment in any twelve (12) month period. SECTION 2.6 SECURITY DEPOSIT - LETTER OF CREDIT. (a) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the Letter of Credit described below, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, as security for Tenant's performance of all of Tenant's covenants and obligations under this Lease; provided, however, that neither the Letter of Credit nor any Letter of Credit Proceeds (as defined below) shall be deemed an advance rent deposit or an advance payment of any other kind, or a measure of Landlord's damages upon Tenant's default. Landlord shall not be required to segregate the Letter of Credit Proceeds from its other funds and no interest shall accrue or be payable to Tenant with respect thereto. Landlord may (but shall not be required to) draw upon the Letter of Credit and use the proceeds therefrom (the "Letter of Credit Proceeds") or any portion thereof to cure any Event of Default under this Lease or to compensate Landlord for any damage Landlord incurs as a result of Tenant's failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder, it being understood that any use of the Letter of Credit Proceeds shall not constitute a bar or defense to any of Landlord's remedies set forth in this Lease, including without limitation, the right to terminate this Lease and recover damages. Landlord shall only be entitled to draw upon the Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Lease or any other document executed in connection with this Lease. In the event Landlord draws upon the Letter of Credit and elects not to terminate the Lease, but to use the Letter of Credit Proceeds to cure such Event of Default, and upon written notice from Landlord to Tenant specifying the amount of the Letter of Credit Proceeds so utilized by Landlord and the particular purpose for which such amount was applied, Tenant shall immediately deliver to Landlord an amendment Letter of Credit or a replacement Letter of Credit in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the amount specified in subsection (b) below. Tenant's failure to deliver such replacement Letter of Credit to Landlord within five (5) business days of Landlord's notice shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. If Tenant breaches any of its obligations set forth in this Section, such breach shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder without the requirement of any notice or cure period. (b) As used herein, Letter of Credit shall mean an unconditional, irrevocable sight draft letter of credit in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT F or another form approved by Landlord (the "Letter of Credit") issued by Silicon Valley Bank or a major national bank reasonably satisfactory to Landlord (the "Bank"), naming Landlord as beneficiary, in an amount equal to Six Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($600,000.00). The Letter of Credit shall provide: (i) that Landlord may make partial and multiple draws thereunder, up to the face amount thereof, (ii) that Landlord may draw upon the Letter of Credit up to the full amount thereof, as determined by Landlord, and the Bank will pay to Landlord the amount of such draw upon receipt by the Bank of a sight draft signed by Landlord certifying that an Event of Default has occurred; and (iii) that, in the event of Landlord's assignment or other transfer of its interest in this Lease, the Letter of Credit shall be freely transferable by Landlord, without charge and without recourse to Landlord, to the assignee or transferee of such interest in accordance with 5 Bank's customary procedures. Tenant shall pay all fees and charges required in connection with any transfer of the Letter of Credit. Landlord must transfer the Letter of Credit to any transferee of Landlord's fee interest in the Premises. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Letter of Credit, Landlord will not make any draw(s) upon the Letter of Credit in an amount in excess of the sum that Landlord reasonably deems necessary to cure the Event of Default and/or to compensate Landlord for any damages Landlord incurs as a result of Tenant's failure to perform any of its obligations under this Lease, except that Landlord may draw the entire amount of the Letter of Credit in the event of termination of this Lease by reason of an Event of Default. (c) The Letter of Credit shall be maintained for the Term of this Lease; provided, however, that the amount of the Letter of Credit shall be reduced for any extended or renewal period of the Term in an amount equal to (i) $125,000 if no Event of Default shall have occurred more than once in any calendar year or three times in the aggregate during the Initial Term or (ii) $300,000 if subsection (i) does not apply. Tenant shall provide an amendment Letter of Credit or replacement Letter of Credit for such reduced amount prior to the expiration of the Initial Term. ARTICLE III. USE OF PREMISES SECTION 3.1 PERMITTED USE. The Premises including all buildings or other improvements hereafter erected upon the same shall be used for offices, warehouse, research and development, and light manufacturing or any other use permitted under applicable laws and any conditions, covenants or restrictions recorded against the Premises (the "Permitted Use"), and no other use. Tenant shall not use or occupy the same, or knowingly permit them to be used or occupied, contrary to any law, statute, rule, order, ordinance, requirement or regulation applicable thereto, or in any manner which would violate any certificate of occupancy affecting the same, or which would make void or voidable any insurance then in force with respect thereto or which would make it impossible to obtain fire or other insurance thereon required to be furnished hereunder by Tenant, or which would cause structural injury to the improvements, or which would constitute a public or private nuisance or waste or would violate any Hazardous Materials Laws (as defined in Section 8.3), and Tenant agrees that it will promptly, upon discovery of any such use, take all necessary steps to compel the discontinuance of such use. SECTION 3.2 PRESERVATION OF PREMISES. Tenant shall not use, suffer, or permit the Premises, or any portion thereof, to be used by Tenant, any of its employees or agents, any third party or the public in such manner as might reasonably tend to impair Landlord's title to the Premises, or any portion thereof, or in such manner as might reasonably make possible a claim or claims of adverse usage or adverse possession by the public, as such, or third persons, or of implied dedication of the Premises, or any portion thereof. Nothing in this Lease contained and no action or inaction by Landlord shall be deemed or construed to mean that Landlord has granted to Tenant any right, power or permission to do any act or make any agreement that may create, or give rise to or be the foundation for any such right, title, interest, lien, charge or other encumbrance upon the estate of Landlord in the Premises. 6 SECTION 3.3 ACCEPTANCE OF PREMISES. Tenant accepts the Premises in its "as is" condition as of the Commencement Date except for (i) Landlord's Work (defined below) and (ii) Landlord's obligations expressly contained elsewhere in this Lease. On or before January 1, 2005, subject to delays due to force majeure and other causes beyond Landlord's control and delays caused by Tenant, Landlord, at Landlord's expense shall substantially complete the following work ("Landlord's Work"): (a) put the Premises in good order, condition and repair, with the core building systems (meaning the roof, structure, HVAC, plumbing and basic electrical systems for the Building) in good working order (and Landlord will warrant the core building systems shall remain in good working order for a period of three (3) months after the Commencement Date so long as Tenant maintains such systems to the extent required by this Lease), (b) clean the static control floor and carpet in the Premises, (c) patch holes in the wall at the loading dock with plywood and paint such plywood, (d) patch conveyor-system openings in the warehouse walls with drywall and paint such drywall, (e) remove rooftop antennas that are no longer in use, (f) supply Tenant with sufficient matching ceiling tiles for Tenant to replace the ceiling tiles that are damaged or missing as of the date of this Lease, (g) supply Tenant with sufficient lamps and bulbs for Tenant to replace such lamps and bulbs that are burned out as of the date of this Lease, and (h) repair and/or replace all existing moisture-damaged or loose static control floor tiles (and any other such tiles that need to be replaced) in the Building, which are estimated to number approximately 250-350 tiles. The core building systems referenced in subsection (a) above does not include any improvements, fixtures, equipment and personal property in the Building installed or abandoned by the prior tenant, including without limitation the Personalty referenced in Section 19.34, all of which is delivered in its "as is" condition, without any representation or warranty of any kind regarding its condition, suitability or usefulness for any purpose. For purposes of this Section 3.3, Landlord's Work shall be deemed "substantially complete" at such time as Tenant can use the Premises for their intended purposes without material interference attributable to the lack of full completion of Landlord's Work. In addition to Landlord's Work, Landlord agrees to install a "french drain" system at the north and east exterior sides of the Building within a reasonable time after the Commencement Date but not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Commencement Date. In the event that Landlord has not substantially completed Landlord's Work by January 1, 2005 (excluding the aforementioned french drain), subject to delays due to force majeure or other causes beyond Landlord's control or delays caused by Tenant, the Gross Rent Period, the commencement date for Basic Rent under Section 2.2, and the Term shall each be extended by the number of days from January 1, 2005, until substantial completion of Landlord's Work. Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, remove, improve, repair, decorate, or paint the interior of the Premises or any part thereof except as expressly provided in this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that except as expressly provided in this Lease, neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises or the Building or with respect to the suitability or fitness of either for the conduct of Tenant's business or for any other purpose. Tenant shall comply with any and all covenants, conditions, restrictions, and encumbrances affecting the Premises and the Building that are provided or disclosed to Tenant before the date of this Lease. SECTION 3.4 STATIC CONTROL FLOOR TILES. Once each quarter during the Initial Term, Landlord shall inspect the static control floor tiles in the Building (the "Tiles") and repair or 7 replace any moisture-damaged or loose Tiles that are readily accessible and located in areas other than Essential Manufacturing Areas (defined below) so as to maintain the static control characteristics of the Tiles consistent with the manufacturer's specifications (the "Performance Standard"). With respect to Tiles located in Essential Manufacturing Areas, Landlord shall promptly repair or replace at any time during the Initial Term upon Tenant's request any readily-accessible Tiles that become moisture-damaged or loose and that fail to meet the Performance Standard. Tenant shall be responsible for moving any equipment or property as necessary to allow Landlord to make the repairs or replacements to the Tiles pursuant to this Section 3.4. After the expiration of the Initial Term, Tenant shall be solely responsible for all Tiles (including their compliance with the Performance Standard if such standard is necessary for Tenant's operations), and Landlord shall have no obligation or liability with respect thereto. For purposes of this Section 3.4, the "Essential Manufacturing Areas" shall refer to Tiles in those areas of the Building that materially impair Tenant's manufacturing process if they do not meet the Performance Standard. During the Initial Term, Landlord shall use its best efforts to ensure that the Tiles in the Essential Manufacturing Areas meet the Performance Standard. Tenant will immediately notify Landlord if it becomes aware or reasonably believes that such Tiles are not meeting the Performance Standard, and will provide Landlord with any relevant information received by Tenant regarding such nonperformance. Landlord will promptly investigate and assess the performance of such Tiles and use its best efforts to cause the Tiles to meet the Performance Standard. Tenant shall at all times cooperate with Landlord in good faith to assess, mitigate and seek to jointly resolve any failure of such Tiles to meet the Performance Standard, including modifying or relocating the manufacturing process to the extent such changes can reasonably be made without materially adversely affecting Tenant's manufacturing operations. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost, shall perform normal, routine maintenance of the floor tiles as recommended by the manufacturer, Flexco. In order to give Tenant the ability to take immediate action with respect to any Tiles in Essential Manufacturing Areas that are not meeting the Performance Standard, Tenant may at any time during the Initial Term (and without prior notice to Landlord) repair or replace any Tiles in Essential Manufacturing Areas that are not meeting the Performance Standard, which action may be taken either independently or jointly with Landlord. Tenant shall notify Landlord as soon as reasonably possible that it has taken or intends to take such action. Landlord agrees to reimburse Tenant for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in making such repairs or replacements of the Tiles, up to an amount of not more than $50,000 in the aggregate during the Initial Term (unless Landlord otherwise agrees in advance) within thirty (30) days of written request by Tenant. If Landlord fails to so reimburse Tenant within such 30-day period, Tenant may offset any such sums due against the next installment of Basic Rent due under this Lease. During the Initial Term, if (i) Tenant has exhausted the self-help remedy set forth in the preceding paragraph (and reasonably concluded that any further efforts by it thereunder would be futile), (ii) the Tiles in Essential Manufacturing Areas that were subject to such self-help continue to fail to meet the Performance Standard, (iii) such failure causes Tenant to be unable to manufacture its product in a material portion of the Essential Manufacturing Areas due to the static control floor requirements of Tenant's customers, (iv) such failure cannot reasonably be 8 remedied by the relocation or reconfiguration of Tenant's manufacturing lines or process in the Premises, and (v) such cessation of manufacturing continues for five (5) consecutive business days, then Tenant shall have the right at any time thereafter (but prior to the time that any one of the foregoing are no longer true) to give Landlord a notice of termination ("Termination Notice") whereupon (1) this Lease shall terminate on the date specified in the Termination Notice (which effective termination date shall be no sooner than ninety (90) days after the Termination Notice) and (2) one-third of the Basic Rent shall be abated for the period from the Termination Notice until the earlier of the date of lease termination or the date Landlord causes such nonperforming Tiles that led to the Termination Notice to meet the Performance Standard; provided, however, that if Landlord causes such nonperforming Tiles that led to the Termination Notice to meet the Performance Standard at any time prior to Tenant's execution of a lease for space at another property, the Termination Notice given hereunder shall be null and void, the foregoing abatement of Basic Rent shall cease, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect for the remaining stated Term. The foregoing right of termination shall only apply during the Initial Term. The parties agree that Tenant's self-help and termination rights set forth above in this Section 3.4 are Tenant's sole and exclusive rights and remedies with respect to the Tiles. Tenant hereby unconditionally waives, releases, covenants not to sue, acquits and forever discharges Landlord and its officers, directors, partners, trustees, employees, agents, attorneys, successors and assigns for, from and against any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands, rights, damages, costs, expenses or compensation whatsoever, including all statutory and common law rights of indemnification and contribution, direct or indirect, known or unknown, foreseeable or unforeseeable, present and future, that the Tenant may now have or may subsequently accrue to the Tenant whatsoever arising out of or related, directly or indirectly, to the performance or nonperformance of the Tiles in the Building or Landlord's efforts to maintain the static control performance of the Tiles, including without limitation, all claims of damage or injury to persons or property. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing release, Tenant waives all claims and releases Landlord from all liability for any consequential damages that Tenant may incur due to the nonperformance of the Tiles, including without limitation any claims based on product liability. Additionally, Tenant shall indemnify and defend Landlord and its officers, directors, partners, trustees, employees, agents, attorneys, successors and assigns from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, costs, penalties, forfeitures, losses or expenses (including attorneys' fees) for death or injury to any person or damage to any property whatsoever arising from or related to, directly or indirectly, from the performance or nonperformance of the Tiles in the Building or Landlord's efforts to maintain the static control performance of the Tiles, including without limitation any claims based on product liability.
