                       AMENDMENT AND EXTENSION OF SUBLEASE


         THIS AMENDMENT AND EXTENSION OF SUBLEASE ("Amendment") is made as of
the 31st day of August, 1999, and is by and between Jain-Olsen Properties, a
Minnesota corporation ("Lessor"), and APA Optics, Inc., a Minnesota corporation
("Lessee").

                                    RECITALS

         A.       Lessor and Lessee entered into that certain Sublease Agreement
                  dated December 1, 1984 ("Sublease") for certain premises
                  ("Premises") located at 2950 N.E. 84th Lane, Blaine,
                  Minnesota, and legally described in the Sublease. The Sublease
                  was amended by that certain Sublease Amendment and Option
                  Agreement dated March 11, 1985.

         B.       The original term of the Sublease was ten (10) years and
                  included the option for the Lessee to renew the term for two
                  terms of five (5) years each.

         C.       The original term expired November 30, 1994. Lessee renewed
                  the term for an additional five years. The Sublease as
                  extended now expires November 30, 1999.

         D.       Lessor and Lessee desire and intend to amend the Sublease and
                  also to extend the Sublease for an additional term of five (5)
                  commencing December 1, 1999, upon the terms and conditions
                  provided in this Amendment.

         NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Lessor and Lessee agree as
follows:

         1. EXTENSION OF SUBLEASE. The term of the Sublease is hereby extended
by an additional term of five (5) years which shall commence December 1, 1999
and shall expire November 30, 2004, unless sooner terminated as provided in the
Sublease.

         2. ANNUAL RENT. Commencing January 1, 2000, annual rent shall be

adjustment of one hundred percent (100%) of the increase in the Consumer Price
Index for the preceding two years.

         3. REAL PROPERTY TAXES. Commencing January 1, 2000, Lessee's pro rata
share of the real estate taxes due and payable on the premises shall be one
hundred percent (100%).

         4. ADDITIONAL RENEWAL TERMS. The Sublease is hereby amended to provide
that in addition to the five (5) year renewal term that is to commence December
1, 1999, Lessee shall have the option to renew the Sublease for two (2)
additional five (5) year renewal terms each, said option to renew to be
exercised as provided in paragraph 4 of the Addendum to Sublease. The option to

and conditions of each of said renewal terms shall be the terms and conditions
of the Sublease, as currently amended and extended, including the option to
purchase the Optioned Premises (as defined therein) at any time during the last
ninety (90) days of each of the renewal terms and on the terms and conditions
provided in the Addendum to Sublease.

         5. LEASE AGREEMENT. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge and agree that the

1984 ("Lease") between City of Blaine, as lessor, and Jain-Olsen Properties, as
lessee. The term of the Lease expires September 1, 2009, unless sooner
terminated as provided therein. Lessor, as the lessee under the Lease, has the
option to purchase the subject property on the terms and conditions set forth in
the Lease. If Lessor exercises said option to purchase and the subject property
is conveyed to Lessor, the terms and conditions of this Sublease shall survive
and continue in full force and effect as a lease of the Premises.

         6. AFFIRMATION OF SUBLEASE. As modified herein, Lessor and Lessee
reaffirm all of the terms and conditions of the Sublease including all addendum
and amendments thereto.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Lessor and Lessee have executed this Amendment to
be effective as of the date first written above.
