  • Commercial Lease. Start a state-specific lease for the rental of commercial property. Specify the term and rent due, as well as whether the landlord or tenant is responsible for property taxes, insurance, and maintenance and repairs.
  • Commercial Sublease. When a tenant vacates commercial property before the lease term has expired, it may be able to rent the premises to a third party. The tenant would be the sublessor and the third party would be the sublessee. Besides preparing a sublease, both parties will want to review the provisions for assignment or subletting in the original lease agreement between the landlord and the sublessor.
  • Sublease Agreement. Tenants of residential property should prepare a sublease agreement if they are seeking to sublease a room or the entire apartment or house to a third party. All parties should review the original lease agreement to see if there are any restrictions on subletting or assigning the premises.
  • Triple Net Lease. Triple net leases are a type of commercial leases where the tenant has to pay for property taxes, insurance, utilities, and maintenance, in addition to the monthly rent.
  • Office Space Lease. When renting an office space, tenants should understand the amount of the rent and duration of the lease. Other important terms include whether the space can be subleased, which parties are responsible for maintenance, and whether any furniture and furnishings will be provided.

ARTICLE TWO: PREMISES
---------------------

2.01  PREMISES.  The Premises are described in Exhibit B and are a part of the
Property, which is described in Exhibit A.  The Property includes all the land,
building(s), and all other improvements located on the land including the common
areas described in Article Eight, and all easements and appurtenant rights
related to Tenant's use of the Premises as provided in this Lease.

ARTICLE THREE: LEASE TERM
-------------------------

3.01  LEASE OF PREMISES FOR LEASE TERM.  Landlord leases the Premises to Tenant
and Tenant leases the Premises from Landlord for the Lease Term.  The Lease Term
shall be the period stated in Article One and shall begin on the Lease
Commencement Date set forth in Article One.  Notwithstanding the provisions of
Article 1.10 above, Landlord agrees to grant to Tenant possession of the office
portion of the Premises no later than October 1, 1998 and to grant to Tenant
possession of the warehouse portion of the Premises no later than December 1,
1998.  Upon written request of Tenant, Landlord agrees to use diligent efforts
to accelerate the respective date of possession of the office and warehouse
portions of the Premises, subject to Landlord's ability to cause the current
occupant of any portion of such space to timely surrender such space in
accordance with such occupant's current agreement with Landlord.

3.02  DELAY IN COMMENCEMENT.  Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant if Landlord
shall not deliver possession of all portions of the Premises to Tenant by March
1, 1999. Landlord's non-delivery of all portions of the Premises to Tenant on or
before that date shall not affect this Lease or the obligations of Tenant under
this Lease, except that the Lease Commencement Date shall be postponed by the
number of days in the period commencing from and after December 1, 1998 to the
date possession of all portions of the Premises shall be delivered to Tenant,
and the Expiration Date shall be extended to the last day of the 120th full
calendar month following such deferred Lease Commencement Date.  Immediately
prior to the Lease Commencement Date, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an
amendment to this Lease setting forth the Lease Commencement Date and Expiration
Date of this Lease.  Failure to execute such amendment shall not affect the
Lease Commencement Date and Expiration Date of this Lease.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event Landlord has not delivered possession of all portions of
the Premises to Tenant on or before March 1, 1999, Tenant may, upon written
notice to Landlord, terminate this Lease, and thereupon this Lease shall
terminate, and all deposits (including the Letter of Credit) shall be returned
to Tenant as soon as practicable thereafter.

3.03  EARLY OCCUPANCY.  If Tenant shall occupy the Premises prior to the Lease
Commencement Date, Tenant's occupancy of the Premises shall be subject to all of
the provisions of this Lease.  Early occupancy of the Premises shall not advance
the Expiration Date of this Lease.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall
not be obligated to pay any Base Rent prior to the Lease Commencement Date, but
Tenant shall be obligated to pay Additional Rent pursuant to Section 4.02 during
the ninety-day period preceding the Lease Commencement Date.

3.04  HOLDING OVER.  Tenant shall vacate the Premises upon the Expiration Date
or earlier termination of this Lease.  Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for and
indemnify Landlord against all reasonably foreseeable damages, costs,
liabilities and expenses, including attorneys' fees, which Landlord shall incur
on account of Tenant's delay in so vacating the Premises, except to the extent
any such delay arises out of any act or omission of Landlord and anyone for
whose acts the Landlord is responsible.  If Tenant shall not vacate the Premises
upon the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease, the Base Rent
shall be increased to 200% of the Base Rent then in effect and Tenant's
obligation to pay Additional Rent shall continue, but nothing herein shall limit
any of Landlord's rights or Tenant's

                                 Page 5 of 35

<PAGE>

obligations arising from Tenant's failure to vacate the Premises, including,
without limitation, Landlord's right to repossess the Premises and remove Tenant
therefrom at any time after the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this
Lease and Tenant's obligation to reimburse and indemnify Landlord as provided in
the preceding sentence.

ARTICLE FOUR: RENT
------------------

4.01  BASE RENT.  Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, and on the first
day of each month thereafter during the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
the Base Rent as described in Section 1.15 in lawful money of the United States,
in advance and without offset, deduction, or prior demand.  The Base Rent shall
be payable at Landlord's address or at such other place or to such other person
as Landlord may designate in writing from time to time.  The amount of Base Rent
due for partial months shall be prorated accordingly.

4.02  ADDITIONAL RENT.  Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, all sums
payable by Tenant under this Lease other than Base Rent shall thereafter be
payable to Landlord and be deemed "Additional Rent;" the term "Rent" shall mean
Base Rent and Additional Rent.  Landlord shall estimate in advance (which
estimate shall be in writing and forwarded to Tenant in advance) and charge to
Tenant the following costs, to be paid on a monthly basis throughout the Lease
Term: (i) all Real Property Taxes for which Tenant is liable under Section 5.01
and 5.02 of the Lease, (ii) all utility costs (if utilities are not separately
metered) for which Tenant is liable under Section 6.01 of the Lease, (iii) all
insurance premiums for which Tenant is liable under Sections 7.01 and 7.06 of
the Lease, (iv) all CAM Expenses for which Tenant is liable under Section 8.04
of the Lease.  Collectively, the aforementioned Real Property Taxes, insurance,
utility, and CAM Expenses shall be referred to as the "Total Operating Costs."
Landlord may adjust its estimates of Total Operating Costs at any time based
upon Landlord's experience and reasonable anticipation of costs.  Such
adjustments shall be effective as of the next Rent payment date after written
notice to Tenant.  Within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year (which
shall be December 31st for this Lease) during the Lease Term, Landlord shall
deliver to Tenant a statement prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles setting forth, in reasonable detail, the Total Operating
Costs paid or incurred by Landlord during the preceding fiscal year and Tenant's
Pro Rata Share of such expenses.  Within thirty (30) days after Tenant's receipt
of such statement and invoices and other documentation in support thereof, there
shall be an adjustment between Landlord and Tenant, with payment to or credit
given by Landlord (as the case may be) in order that Landlord shall receive the
entire amount of Tenant's share of such costs and expenses for such period.  In
addition to its obligation to pay Base Rent and its Pro Rata Share of Total
Operating Costs, Tenant is required hereunder to pay directly to suppliers,
vendors, carriers, contractors, etc. certain insurance premiums, utility costs,
personal property taxes, maintenance and repair costs and other expenses,
collectively "Additional Expenses."  If Landlord pays for any Additional
Expenses in accordance with the terms of this Lease, Tenant's obligation to
reimburse such costs shall be an Additional Rent obligation payable in full with
the next monthly Rent payment.  Unless this Lease provides otherwise, Tenant
shall pay all Additional Rent then due with the next monthly installment of Base
Rent.

4.03  LATE CHARGE.  Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to
Landlord of Rent and other amounts due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur
costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be
extremely difficult to ascertain.  Such costs include, but are not limited to,
processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on
Landlord by the terms of any loan secured by the Building.  Accordingly, if any
installment of Rent or any other sums due from Tenant shall not be received by
Landlord within five days following the due date, Tenant shall pay to

                                 Page 6 of 35
<PAGE>

Landlord a late charge equal to five percent of such overdue amount. The parties
hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of
the costs Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of
such late charge by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant's
default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from
exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.

4.04  INTEREST.  Any Rent or other amount due to Landlord, if not paid within
five days after due, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the
rate of 10% per annum, provided that interest shall not be payable on late
charges incurred by Tenant nor on any amounts upon which late charges are paid
by Tenant to the extent such interest would cause the total interest to be in
excess of that legally permitted.  Payment of interest shall not excuse or cure
any default hereunder by Tenant.

4.05  TENANT'S PRO RATA SHARE.  Tenant's Pro Rata Share shall be calculated by
dividing the rentable square foot area of the Premises, as set forth in Section
1.07, by the rentable square foot area of the Property, as set forth in Section
1.06, which is leased or held for lease by tenants, as of the date on which the
computation shall be made.  Tenant's initial Pro Rata Share is set forth in
Section 1.08 and is subject to adjustment based on the aforementioned formula.
Landlord agrees to use the same measurement method for all tenant space in the
Property.

ARTICLE FIVE: PROPERTY TAXES
----------------------------

5.01  REAL PROPERTY TAXES.  Tenant shall pay Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Real
Property Taxes on the Property payable during the Lease Term.  Tenant shall make
such payments to Landlord in accordance with Section 4.02.  If Landlord shall
receive a refund of any Real Property Taxes with respect to which Tenant shall
have paid Tenant's Pro Rata Share, Landlord shall refund to Tenant Tenant's Pro
Rata Share of such refund after deducting therefrom the costs and expenses
reasonably incurred in connection therewith.

5.02  DEFINITION OF "REAL PROPERTY TAXES."  "Real Property Taxes" shall mean
taxes, assessments (special, betterment, or otherwise), levies, fees, rent
taxes, excises, impositions, charges water and sewer rents and charges, and all
other government levies and charges, general and special, ordinary and
extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, which are imposed or levied upon or
assessed against the Property or any Rent or other sums payable by any tenants
or occupants thereof to the extent any of the foregoing are not included in CAM
Expenses pursuant to Article Eight below.  Real Property Taxes shall include
Landlord's costs and expenses reasonably incurred in contesting any Real
Property Taxes.  If at any time during the term the present system of ad valorem
taxation of real property shall be changed so that in lieu of the whole or any
part of the ad valorem tax on real property, or in lieu of increases therein,
there shall be assessed on Landlord a capital levy or other tax on the gross
rents received with respect to the Property or a federal, state, county,
municipal, or other local income, franchise, excise or similar tax, assessment,
levy, or charge (distinct from any now in effect) measured by or based, in whole
or in part, upon gross rents, then all of such taxes, assessments, levies, or
charges, to the extent so measured or based ("Substitute Taxes"), shall be
deemed to be a Real Property Taxes.

5.03  PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES.  Tenant shall pay directly all taxes charged
against trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment, inventory, or any other personal
property belonging to Tenant.  Tenant shall use its best efforts to have
personal property taxed separately from the Property.  If any of Tenant's
personal property shall be taxed with the Property, Tenant shall pay Landlord
the taxes for such personal property within fifteen (15) days after Tenant
receives a written statement from Landlord for such personal property taxes.

ARTICLE SIX: UTILITIES
----------------------

6.01  UTILITIES.  Tenant shall promptly pay, directly to the appropriate
supplier, the cost of all natural gas, heat, cooling energy, light, power, sewer
service, telephone, water, refuse disposal and other utilities and services
supplied to the Premises, allocable to the Lease Term together with any related
installation or connection charges or deposits (collectively "Utility Costs").
If any services or utilities are jointly metered with other premises, Landlord
shall make a reasonable determination of Tenant's proportionate share of the
such Utility Costs and Tenant shall pay such share to Landlord in accordance
with Section 4.02.  Landlord shall not be liable for damages, consequential or
otherwise, nor shall there be any rent abatement arising out of any curtailment
or interruption whatsoever in utility services.  Utilities serving the Common
Areas (as defined in Article Eight) exclusively shall be accounted for as
described in Article Eight.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any
such interruption or discontinuance in the furnishing of the foregoing services
pursuant to this Article 6 was within the reasonable control of Landlord to

bodily injury, property damage (including loss of use of property) and personal
injury at the Premises, including contractual liability.  Such insurance shall
name Landlord, its property manager, any mortgagee of which Landlord gives

less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per vehicle for injuries or death of
one or more persons or loss or damage to property.

paid for by Tenant and Tenant's personal property and fixtures from time to time
in, on, or at the Premises, in an amount not less than 100% of the full
replacement cost, without deduction for depreciation, providing protection
against events protected under "All Risk Coverage," as well as against sprinkler
damage, vandalism, and malicious mischief.  Any proceeds from the Personal
Property Insurance shall be used for the repair or replacement of the property
damaged or destroyed, unless this Lease is terminated under an applicable
provision herein.  If the Premises are not repaired or restored following damage
or destruction in accordance with other provisions herein, Landlord shall
receive any proceeds from the Personal Property Insurance allocable to Tenant's

Expenses, Utility Costs and insurance premiums for one (1) year.  Tenant shall
be liable for the payment of any deductible amount under Landlord's insurance
maintained pursuant to this Article Seven, in an amount not to exceed Twenty-
Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000).  Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be
done which shall invalidate any such insurance.

7.07  PAYMENT OF INSURANCE PREMIUMS.  Landlord shall pay the premiums of the
insurance policies maintained by Landlord under Section 7.06 and Section 7.01
(if applicable), and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Tenant's Pro Rata Share

of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease.  The foregoing shall
include reasonable investigation costs and all the costs and expenses incurred

time, and with prior written notice to Tenant, may change the size, location,
nature, and use of any of the Common Areas, convert Common Areas into leaseable
areas, construct additional parking facilities (including parking structures) in
the Common Areas, and increase or decrease Common Area land or facilities;
provided, however, that the amount of CAM Expenses shall be proportionately
adjusted by Landlord to account for such change or conversion.  Such activities
and changes are permitted if they do not materially affect Tenant's use of the
Premises or the operation of its business therein, and such changes to the
Common Areas shall not unreasonably affect accessibility of the Premises, nor
shall any such changes decrease the number of parking spaces available to
Tenant.

8.02  USE OF COMMON AREAS.  Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right (in common
with other tenants and all others to whom Landlord has granted or may grant such
rights) to use the Common Areas for the purposes intended, subject to such
reasonable rules and regulations ("Rules and Regulations") as Landlord may
establish or modify from time to time and as initially set forth in Exhibit "C"
and after notice to Tenant of any changes thereto provided, however, Landlord
agrees not to selectively enforce in a discriminatory manner against Tenant but
not other tenants in the Building any of the rules and regulations described in
this Section 8.02.  Tenant shall abide by all such Rules and Regulations and
shall use its best efforts to cause others who use the Common Areas with
Tenant's express or implied permission to abide by Landlord's Rules and
Regulations.  At any time, Landlord may close only upon prior reasonable notice
(except in an emergency) and provided such closing is only temporary any Common
Areas to perform any acts in the Common Areas as, in Landlord's reasonable
judgment, are desirable to maintain or improve the Property.  Tenant shall not
interfere with the rights of Landlord, other tenants, or any other person
entitled to use the Common Areas.  In the event of conflict with the terms of
this Lease, the terms of this Lease shall prevail over the Rules and
Regulations.

8.03  VEHICLE PARKING.  Tenant shall be entitled to use the number of vehicle
parking spaces in the Property allocated to Tenant in Section 1.14 without
paying any additional rent.  Tenant's parking shall not be reserved and shall be

parked within the Property or on the adjacent public streets except in
accordance with the Rules and Regulations.  Vehicles shall be parked only in
striped parking spaces and not in driveways, other locations not specifically
designated for parking.  Handicapped spaces shall only be used by those legally
permitted to use them.  Tenant shall not park at any time more vehicles in the
parking area than the number set forth in Section 1.14.

8.04  COMMON AREA MAINTENANCE.  Subject to Articles Eleven and Twelve, Landlord
shall maintain the Property (other than the Premises) and the Common Areas in
good order, condition, and repair.  Common Area Maintenance expenses ("CAM

other appropriate reserves; and a property management fee (not to exceed five
percent (5%) of the gross rents of the Property for the calendar year).
Landlord may cause any or all of such services to be provided by third parties
and the cost of such services shall be included in CAM

                                 Page 11 of 35
<PAGE>

Expenses; provided, however, that Landlord shall include in the statement
prepared pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof the full-time/part-time employment
status of the individual(s) providing management services to the Property. With
respect to any CAM Expenses which are included for the benefit of the Property
and other property, Landlord shall make a reasonable allocation of such cost
between the Property and such other property. CAM Expenses shall not include:
(a) the cost of capital repairs and replacements, provided, however, that the
annual depreciation (based on the useful life of the item under generally
accepted accounting principles) of any such capital repair or replacement to the
Common Areas or any common heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, plumbing,
electrical, utility and safety systems serving the Property shall be included in
the CAM Expenses each year during the term of this Lease; and (b) the cost of
capital improvements, provided, however, that the annual depreciation (based on
the useful life of the item under generally accepted accounting principles) of
any capital improvement undertaken to reduce CAM Expenses or made in order to
comply with legal requirements shall be included in CAM Expenses each year
during the term of this Lease.

8.05  TENANT'S PAYMENT OF CAM EXPENSE.  Tenant shall pay Tenant's Pro Rata Share

in any way which shall constitute a violation of any law, ordinance, restrictive

occupancy and shall promptly take all actions necessary to comply with all
applicable statutes, ordinances, notes, regulations, orders and requirements
regulating the use by Tenant of the Premises, including the Occupational Safety
and Health Act.

9.03  HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.  As used in this Lease, the term "Hazardous Material"
shall mean any flammable items, explosives, radioactive materials, oil,
hazardous or toxic substances, material or waste or related materials, including
any substances defined as or included in the definition of "hazardous
substances", "hazardous wastes", "hazardous materials" or "toxic substances" now
or subsequently regulated under any applicable federal, state or local laws or

without (a) the prior written consent of Landlord, and (b) complying with all
applicable Federal, State and Local laws or ordinances pertaining to the

                                 Page 12 of 35
<PAGE>

knowledge (without having conducted any investigation) the Premises are free of
any "Hazardous Materials" as such term is defined herein. Landlord hereby
consents to Tenant's use of small amounts of cleaning solvents, copy and printer
toner and other materials customarily used in the operation of business offices
and in the course of Tenant's operations at the Premises, so long as Tenant
complies fully with all applicable laws, rules and regulations relating thereto.

If Tenant's transportation, storage, use or disposal of Hazardous Materials on
the Premises results in the contamination of the soil or surface or ground water
or loss or damage to person(s) or property, then Tenant agrees to: (a) notify
Landlord immediately upon Tenant's obtaining actual knowledge of any
contamination, claim of contamination, loss or damage, (b) after consultation

applicable statutes, regulations and standards and (c) indemnify, defend and
hold Landlord harmless from and against any claims, suits, causes of action,

or tenant, and/or (iii) for any other reason deemed reasonably necessary by

under or about the Premises which is required to be reported to a governmental
authority under any environmental law, will promptly forward to Landlord copies
of any notices received by Tenant relating to alleged violations of any
environmental law and will promptly pay when due any fine or assessment against
Landlord, Tenant or the Premises relating to any violation by Tenant of an
environmental law during the term of this Lease.  If a lien is filed against the
Premises by any governmental authority resulting from the need to expend or the
actual expending of monies arising from an act or omission, whether intentional
or unintentional, of Tenant, its agents, employees or invitees, or for which
Tenant is responsible, resulting in the releasing, spilling, leaking, leaching,
pumping, emitting, pouring, emptying or dumping of any Hazardous Material into
the waters or onto land located within or without the State where the Premises
is located, then Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days from the date that Tenant
is first given notice that such lien has been placed against the Premises (or
within such shorter period of time as may be specified by Landlord if such
governmental authority has commenced steps to cause the Premises to be sold
pursuant to such lien) either (i) pay the claim and remove the lien, or (ii)
furnish a cash deposit, bond, or such other security with respect thereto as is
satisfactory in all respects to Landlord and is sufficient to effect a complete
discharge of such lien on the Premises.  The provisions of this Section 9.03
shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

9.04  SIGNS AND AUCTIONS.  Tenant shall not place any signs on the Property
without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld for outdoor signage that identifies Tenant as the occupant
of the Premises, provided such signage complies with applicable law.  Tenant
shall not conduct or permit any auctions or sheriff's sales at the Property.

9.05  LANDLORD'S ACCESS.  Landlord or its agents may enter the Premises at all
reasonable times to show the Premises to potential buyers, investors or tenants
or other parties; to do any other act or to inspect and conduct tests in order
to monitor Tenant's compliance with all applicable environmental laws and all
laws governing the presence and use of Hazardous Material; or for any other
purpose Landlord deems reasonably necessary.  Landlord shall give Tenant at
least two days' prior written notice (except in the event of an emergency) of
such entry, and such entry by Landlord shall not interfere with Tenant's
business operations or cause damage to Tenant's personal property.  Landlord
shall repair any damage to Tenant or its personal property as a result of such
entry.  Within the final six months of the Lease Term, Landlord may place
customary "For Sale" or "For Lease" signs on the Premises.

11.01  DAMAGE TO PREMISES

     11.01 (a)  If the Premises shall be destroyed or rendered untenantable,
either wholly or in part, by fire or other casualty ("Casualty"), Tenant shall
immediately notify Landlord in writing upon the occurrence of such Casualty.  In
the event of any Casualty destroying or rendering untenantable more than fifty
percent of the Premises, Landlord may elect either to (i) repair the damage
caused by such casualty as soon as reasonably possible, in which case this Lease
shall remain in full force and effect, or (ii) terminate this Lease as of the
date the casualty occurred.  If such damage occurs during the last year of the
Term, Tenant may also elect to terminate this Lease as of the date the casualty
occurred.  Landlord shall notify Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of
notice of the occurrence of the casualty whether Landlord elects to repair the
damage or terminate this Lease.  In the event of any Casualty destroying or
rendering untenantable less than fifty percent of the Premises, Landlord shall
repair the damage caused by such casualty as soon as reasonably possible.  If
Landlord shall elect to repair the damage, Tenant shall pay Landlord the portion
of the "deductible amount" (if any) under Landlord's insurance allocable to the
damage to the Premises and, if the damage shall have been due to an act or
omission of Tenant, or Tenant's employees, agents, contractors or invitees, the
difference between the actual cost of repair and any insurance proceeds received
by Landlord.

     11.01(b)  If the casualty to the Premises shall occur during the last six
(6) months of the Lease Term and the damage shall be estimated by Landlord to
require more than thirty (30) days to repair, either Landlord or Tenant may
elect to terminate this Lease as of the date the casualty shall have occurred,
regardless of the sufficiency of any insurance proceeds.  The party electing to
terminate this Lease shall give written notification to the other party of such
election within ten (10) days after Tenant's notice to Landlord of the
occurrence of the casualty.

     11.01(c)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Landlord is unable to
substantially complete such restoration work within 180 days following any such
casualty, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of Tenant's intent to
thereafter terminate this Lease and Landlord shall thereafter have an additional
30 day period within which to substantially complete such work; and in the event
Landlord fails to substantially complete such work by the end of such extended
30-day period, Tenant shall thereafter have the right to terminate this Lease
upon

                                 Page 16 of 35
<PAGE>

delivery of written notice to Landlord of such termination prior to the earlier
of (a) the date of such substantial completion of Landlord's work or (b) fifteen
days following expiration of such extended 30-day period.

11.02  TEMPORARY REDUCTION OF RENT.  If the Property shall be destroyed or
damaged by casualty and Landlord shall determine to repair or restore the
Property pursuant to the provisions of this Article Eleven, any Rent payable
during the period of such damage, repair and/or restoration shall be reduced
according to the degree, if any, to which Tenant's use of the Premises shall be
impaired.  Such reduction shall not exceed the sum of one year's payment of Base
Rent, insurance premiums and Real Property Taxes.  Except for such possible
reduction in Base Rent, insurance premiums and Real Property Taxes, Tenant shall
not be entitled to any compensation, reduction or reimbursement from Landlord as
a result of any damage, destruction, repair, or restoration of the Property.

11.03  WAIVER.  Tenant waives the protection of any statute, code or judicial
decision which shall grant a tenant the right to terminate a lease in the event
of the damage or destruction of the leased property and the provisions of this
Article Eleven shall govern the rights and obligations of Landlord and Tenant in
the event of any damage or destruction of or to the Property.

ARTICLE TWELVE: CONDEMNATION
----------------------------

12.01  CONDEMNATION.  If more than twenty percent (20%) of the floor area of the
Premises or more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the parking on the Property,
shall be taken by eminent domain either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this
Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, by
delivering notice to the other within ten (10) days after receipt of written
notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days
after the condemning authority shall take title or possession).  If neither
Landlord nor Tenant shall terminate this Lease, this Lease shall remain in
effect as to the portion of the Premises not taken, except that the Base Rent
shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in the floor area of the
Premises.  If this Lease shall be terminated, any condemnation award or payment
shall be distributed to the Landlord.  Tenant shall have no claim against
Landlord for the value of the unexpired lease term or otherwise.

ARTICLE THIRTEEN: ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
-------------------------------------------

13.01  LANDLORD'S CONSENT REQUIRED.  No portion of the Premises or of Tenant's
interest in this Lease shall be acquired by any other person or entity, whether
by sale, assignment, mortgage, sublease, transfer, operation of law, or act of
Tenant, without Landlord's prior written consent, except as provided in Section
13.02 below.  Landlord shall have the right to grant or withhold its consent as
provided in Section 13.04 below. Any attempted transfer without consent shall be
void and shall constitute a non curable breach of this Lease.

13.02  NO RELEASE OF TENANT.  No assignment or transfer shall release Tenant or
change Tenant's primary liability to pay the Rent and to perform all other
obligations of Tenant under this Lease.  Landlord's acceptance of Rent from any
other person shall not be a waiver of any provision of this Article Thirteen.
Consent to one transfer shall not be deemed a consent to any subsequent transfer
or a waiver of the obligation to obtain consent on subsequent occasions.  If
Tenant's assignee or transferee shall default under this Lease, Landlord may
proceed directly against Tenant without pursuing remedies against the assignee
or transferee.  Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or modifications
of this Lease by Tenant's transferee without notifying Tenant or obtaining its
consent, and such action shall not release Tenant from any of its obligations or
liabilities under this Lease as so assigned or modified.

                                 Page 17 of 35
<PAGE>

13.03  OFFER TO TERMINATE.  If Tenant shall desire to assign this Lease or
sublease all or any part of the Premises, Tenant shall offer to Landlord in
writing, the right to terminate this Lease as of the date specified in the
offer.  If Landlord shall elect in writing to accept the offer to terminate
within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice of the offer, and Tenant does
not within ten (10) days following receipt of Landlord's written notice of such
acceptance notify Landlord in writing of Tenant's withdrawal of its intent to
assign or sublease, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in such
offer and all the terms and provisions of this Lease governing termination shall
apply.  If Landlord shall not so elect, Tenant shall then comply with the
provisions of this Article Thirteen applicable to such assignment of sublease.

13.04  LANDLORD'S CONSENT.  Tenant's request for consent under Section 13.01
shall set forth the details of the proposed sublease, assignment or transfer,
including the name, business and financial condition of the prospective
transferee, financial details of the proposed transaction (e.g., the term of and
the rent and security deposit payable under any proposed assignment or
sublease), and any other information Landlord deems relevant.  Landlord shall
have the right to withhold consent, reasonably exercised, or to grant consent,
based on the following factors: (i) the business of the proposed assignee or
subtenant and the proposed use of the Premises; (ii) the net worth and financial
condition of the proposed assignee or subtenant; (iii) Tenant's compliance with
all of its obligations under this Lease; and (iv) such other factors as Landlord
may reasonably deem relevant.  If Tenant shall assign or sublease, the following
shall apply: Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent fifty percent (50%)
of the Profit (defined below) on such transaction (such amount being Landlord's
share) as and when received by Tenant, unless Landlord shall give notice to
Tenant and the assignee or subtenant that Landlord's Share shall be paid by the
assignee or subtenant to Landlord directly. Profit shall mean (a) all rent and
all fees and other consideration paid for or in respect of the assignment or
sublease, including fees under any collateral agreements less (b) the rent and
other sums payable under this Lease (in the case of a sublease of less than all
of the Premises, allocable to the subleased premises) and all costs and expenses
directly incurred by Tenant in connection with the execution and performance of
such assignment or sublease for reasonable real estate broker's commissions and
reasonable costs of renovation or construction of tenant improvements required
under such assignment or sublease.  Tenant shall be entitled to recover such
reasonable costs and expenses before Tenant shall be obligated to pay Landlord's
Share to Landlord.  Tenant shall provide Landlord a written statement certifying
all amounts to be paid from any assignment or sublease of the Premises within
thirty (30) days after the transaction shall be signed and from time to time
thereafter on Landlord's request, and Landlord may inspect Tenant's books and
records to verify the accuracy of such statement.  On written request, Tenant
shall promptly furnish to Landlord copies of all the transaction documentation,
all of which shall be certified by Tenant to be complete, true and correct.

13.05  TENANT'S AFFILIATE.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13 to the
contrary, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the
Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord to Tenant's Affiliate (as
hereinafter defined) provided that: (a) Tenant is not at such time, and such
Affiliate on the effective date of such assignment or sublease will not be, in
monetary or material non-monetary default hereunder; (b) such Affiliate shall
execute an instrument in writing assuming by assignment the terms of this Lease
or acknowledging that such sublease is subject and subordinate to all of the
terms and conditions of this Lease, and Tenant shall deliver the same to
Landlord; and (c) all documents and information required hereunder shall be
delivered by Tenant to Landlord at least fifteen (15) days prior to the
effective date of such assignment or sublease; and (d) in the case of an
assignment, such Affiliate has a net worth at least equal to or greater than
that of Tenant prior to the effective date of such assignment.  For purposes of
this Section 13, the term "Affiliate" shall mean (i) any entity resulting from a
merger or business combination with Tenant; or (ii) any entity succeeding to the
business or substantially all of the assets of Tenant; or (iii) the parent of
Tenant or any Affiliate of such parent.

<PAGE>

ARTICLE FOURTEEN: DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
---------------------------------------

14.01  COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS.  Tenant's performance of each of Tenant's
obligations under this Lease is a condition as well as a covenant.  Tenant's
right to continue in possession of the Premises is conditioned upon such
performance.  Time is of the essence in the performance by Tenant of all
covenants and conditions.

14.02  DEFAULTS.  Each of the following shall be an event of default under this
Lease:

     14.02 (a)  Tenant shall abandon or vacate the Premises and fail to pay Rent
as required under this Lease;

     14.02 (b)  Tenant shall fail to pay Rent or any other sum payable under
this Lease within ten (10) days after Tenant's receipt of written notice from
Landlord regarding such non-payment;

     14.02 (c)  Tenant shall fail to perform any of Tenant's other obligations
under this Lease and such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30)
days after written notice from Landlord; provided that if more than thirty (30)
days shall be required to complete such performance, Tenant shall not be in
default if Tenant shall commence such performance within the thirty (30) day
period and shall thereafter diligently pursue its completion.

     14.02 (d)  (i) Tenant shall make a general assignment or general
arrangement for the benefit of creditors; (ii) a petition for adjudication of
bankruptcy or for reorganization or rearrangement shall be filed by or against
Tenant and shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days; (iii) a trustee or
receiver shall be appointed to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's
assets located at the Premises or Tenant's interest in this Lease and possession
shall be subjected to attachment, execution or other judicial seizure which
shall not be discharged within sixty (60) days.  If a court of competent
jurisdiction shall determine that any of the acts described in this subsection
(d) is not a default under this Lease, and a trustee shall be appointed to take
possession (or if Tenant shall remain a debtor in possession) and such trustee
or Tenant shall assign, sublease, or transfer Tenant's interest hereunder, then
Landlord shall receive, as Additional Rent, the excess, if any, of the rent (or
any other consideration) paid in connection with such assignment, transfer or
sublease over the rent payable by Tenant under this Lease.

14.03  REMEDIES.  On the occurrence of an event of default by Tenant beyond the
expiration of all applicable notice, grace and cure periods, Landlord may, at
any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand (except as provided in
Section 14.02) and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any right or
remedy which Landlord may have:

     14.03 (a)  Terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant or by entry, at
Landlord's option.  Tenant shall then immediately quit and surrender the
Premises to Landlord, but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.
Following termination, without prejudice to other remedies Landlord may have by
reason of Tenant's default or of such termination, Landlord may (i) peaceably
reenter the Premises upon voluntary surrender by Tenant or remove Tenant
therefrom and any other persons occupying the Premises, using such legal
proceedings as may be available; (ii) repossess the Premises or relet the
Premises or any part thereof for such term (which may be for a term extending
beyond the Lease Term), at such rental and upon such other terms and conditions
as Landlord in Landlord's sole discretion shall determine, with the right to
make alterations and repairs to the Premises; and (iii) remove all personal
property therefrom.  Following termination, Landlord shall have all the rights
and remedies of a landlord provided at law and in equity and shall use
reasonable efforts to re-let the Premises.  The

                                 Page 19 of 35
<PAGE>

amount of damages Tenant shall pay to Landlord following termination shall
include all Rent unpaid up to the termination of this Lease, costs and expenses
incurred by Landlord due to such Event of Default and, in addition, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord as damages, at the election of Landlord (if Landlord shall elect
subsection (y) below, it may cease such election at any time), either (x) the
discounted present value (at the then Federal Reserve Bank discount rate) of the
aggregate Rent and other charges due during the period commencing with such
termination and ending on the expiration date of this Lease, or (y) amounts
equal to the Rent and other charges which would have been payable by Tenant had
this Lease or Tenant's right to possession not been so terminated, payable upon
the due dates therefor specified herein following such termination and until the
expiration date of this Lease, provided, however, that if Landlord shall re-let
the Premises during such period, Landlord shall credit Tenant with the net rents
received by Landlord from such re-letting, such net rents to be determined by
first deducting from the gross rents as and when received by Landlord from such
re-letting the expenses reasonably incurred or paid by Landlord in terminating
this Lease, and the reasonable expenses of re-letting, including, without
limitation, altering and preparing the Premises for new tenants, brokers'
commissions, reasonable legal fees and all other similar and dissimilar expenses
properly and reasonably chargeable against the Premises and the rental
therefrom, it being understood that any such reletting may be for a period equal
to or shorter or longer than the remaining Lease Term; and provided, further,
that (i) in the no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of such
net rents over the sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder and (ii) in no
event shall Tenant be entitled in any suit for the collection of damages
pursuant to this subsection (y) to a credit in respect of any net rents from a
re-letting except to the extent that such net rents are actually received by
Landlord prior to the commencement of such suit. If the Premises or any part
thereof should be re-let in combination with other space, then proper
apportionment on a square foot area basis shall be made of the rent received
from such re-letting and of the reasonable expenses of re-letting. In
calculating the Rent and other charges under subsection (x) above, there shall
be included, in addition to the Rent other considerations agreed to be paid or
performed by Tenant, on the assumption that all such considerations would have
remained constant (except as herein otherwise provided) for the balance of the
full Term hereby granted. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to re-let the
Premises or any part thereof for such rent and on such terms as it shall
determine (including the right to re-let the Premises for a greater or lesser
term than the Lease Term, the right to re-let the Premises as part of a larger
area and the right to change the character or use made of the Premises). Suit or
suits for the recovery of such damages, or any installments thereof, may be
brought by Landlord from time to time at its election, and nothing contained
herein shall be deemed to require Landlord to postpone suit until the date when
the Term of this Lease would have expired if it had not been terminated
hereunder. In lieu of any other damages or indemnity and in lieu of full
recovery by Landlord of all sums payable under the foregoing provisions of this
Section 14.03(a), Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, at any time after
this Lease shall be terminated under this Article Fourteen or shall be otherwise
terminated for breach of any obligation of Tenant and before such full recovery,
elect to recover, and Tenant shall thereupon pay, as liquidated damages, an
amount equal to the aggregate of the Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the
twelve (12) months ended immediately prior to such termination plus the amount
of Base Rent and Additional Rent of any kind accrued and unpaid at the time of
termination.

     14.03 (b)  Maintain Tenant's right to possession, in which case this Lease
shall continue in effect whether or not Tenant has abandoned the Premises.  In
such event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord's rights and
remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes
due.

     14.03 (c)  Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord
under the laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Property is
located.

14.04  REPAYMENT OF "FREE" RENT.  [Intentionally Deleted]

                                 Page 20 of 35
<PAGE>

14.05  AUTOMATIC TERMINATION; DAMAGES.  Notwithstanding any other term or
provision hereof to the contrary, this Lease shall terminate on the occurrence
of any act which affirms the Landlord's intention to terminate the Lease as
provided in Section 14.03 hereof, including the filing of an unlawful detainer
action against Tenant.  On any termination, Landlord's damages for default shall
include all costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees that Landlord
shall incur in connection with the filing, commencement, pursuing and/or
defending of any action in any bankruptcy court or other court with respect to
the Lease, the obtaining of relief from any stay in bankruptcy restraining any
action to evict Tenant; or the pursuing of any action with respect to Landlord's
right to possession of the Premises.  All such damages suffered (apart from Base
Rent and other Rent payable hereunder) shall constitute pecuniary damages which
shall be reimbursed to Landlord prior to assumption of the Lease by Tenant or
any successor to Tenant in any bankruptcy or other proceedings.

14.06  CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any
and all rights and remedies which Landlord and Tenant may have under this Lease
and at law and equity shall be cumulative and shall not be deemed inconsistent
with each other, and any two or more of all such rights and remedies may be
exercised at the same time to the greatest extent permitted by law.

ARTICLE FIFTEEN: PROTECTION OF LENDERS
--------------------------------------

15.01  SUBORDINATION.  Landlord represents that there is no mortgage encumbering
the Property or the Premises as of the date of execution hereof.  Landlord shall
have the right to subordinate this Lease to any future ground lease, deed of
trust or mortgage encumbering the Property, any advances made on the security
thereof and any renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements or
extensions thereof, whenever made or recorded, provided that Landlord shall
obtain from such ground lessor, mortgagee or other financing entity an agreement
in the form customarily issued by such party and reasonably acceptable to Tenant
whereby such party agrees not to disturb Tenant's use and possession of the
Premises in the event of such party's foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure
or exercise of any of its rights at law or in equity.  Tenant shall cooperate
with Landlord and any lender which shall acquire a security interest in the
Property or the Lease.  Tenant shall execute such further documents and
assurances as such lender may require, provided that Tenant's obligations under
this Lease shall not be increased in any material way (the performance of
ministerial acts shall not be deemed material), and Tenant shall not be deprived
of its rights under this Lease.  If any ground lessor, beneficiary or mortgagee
elects to have this Lease prior to the lien of its ground lease, deed of trust
or mortgage and gives written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be
deemed prior to such ground lease, deed of trust or mortgage whether this Lease
is dated prior or subsequent to the date of said ground lease, deed of trust or
mortgage or the date of recording thereof.

15.02  ATTORNMENT.  If Landlord's interest in the Property is acquired by any
ground lessor, beneficiary under a deed of trust, mortgagee, or purchaser at a
foreclosure sale, Tenant shall attorn to the transferee of or successor to
Landlord's interest in the Property and recognize such transferee or successor
as Landlord under this Lease so long as Tenant is permitted to remain in
possession under the terms of this Lease. Tenant waives the protection of any
statute or rule of law which shall give Tenant any right to terminate this Lease
or surrender possession of the Premises upon the transfer of Landlord's
interest.

15.03  SIGNING OF DOCUMENTS.  Tenant shall sign and deliver any instrument or
documents necessary or appropriate to evidence any such attornment, non-
disturbance and subordination or agreement to do so, which agreement shall be
reviewed and approved in advance by Tenant and its counsel.

                                 Page 21 of 35
<PAGE>

15.04  ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES.  Within ten (10) days after Landlord's request,
Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a written statement
certifying: (i) that none of the terms or provisions of this Lease have been
changed (or if they have been changed, stating how they have been changed); (ii)
that this Lease has not been canceled or terminated; (iii) the last date of
payment of the Base Rent and other charges and the time period covered by such
payment; (iv) that Landlord is not in default under this Lease (or if Landlord
is claimed to be in default, setting forth such default in reasonable detail);
and (v) such other information with respect to Tenant or this Lease as Landlord
may reasonably request or which any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the
Property may require.  Landlord may deliver any such statement by Tenant to any
prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Property, and such purchaser or
encumbrancer may rely conclusively upon such statement as true and correct.  If
Tenant shall not deliver such statement to Landlord within such ten (10) day
period, Landlord, and any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer, may
conclusively presume and rely upon the following facts: (i) that the terms and
provisions of this Lease have not been changed except as otherwise represented
by Landlord; (ii) that this Lease has not been canceled or terminated except as
otherwise represented by Landlord; (iii) that not more than one month's Base
Rent or other charges have been paid in advance; and (iv) that Landlord is not
in default under this Lease.  In such event, Tenant shall be estopped from
denying the truth of such facts.

ARTICLE SIXTEEN: LEGAL COSTS
----------------------------

16.01  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.  In any suit or proceeding brought or commenced by
either party against the other to enforce, protect or defend its rights or
remedies hereunder, the prevailing party therein shall be entitled to recover
from the non-prevailing party all court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees
incurred by the prevailing party with respect to such suit or proceeding, which
amount may be included in and made a part of any judgment entered therein.

16.02  LANDLORD'S CONSENT.  Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable fees and
expenses, including, without limitation, legal, engineering and other
consultants' fees and expenses, incurred in connection with Tenant's request for
Landlord's consent under Article Thirteen (Assignment and Subletting) or in
connection with any other act by Tenant which requires Landlord's consent or
approval under this Lease.

ARTICLE SEVENTEEN: MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
-------------------------------------------

17.01  NON-DISCRIMINATION.  Tenant agrees that it will not permit any
discrimination against, or segregation of, any person or group of persons on the
basis of race, color, sex, creed, national origin or ancestry in the leasing,
subleasing, transferring, occupancy, tenure or use of the Premises or any
portion thereof.

17.02  LANDLORD'S LIABILITY; CERTAIN DUTIES.

     17.02 (a) BIND AND INURE; LIMITATION OF LANDLORD'S LIABILITY.  The
obligations of this Lease shall run with the land, and this Lease shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns.  No owner of the Property shall be liable under this
Lease except for breaches of Landlord's obligations occurring while owner of the
Property.  The obligations of Landlord shall be binding upon the assets of
Landlord which comprise the Property (including rent, insurance proceeds,
condemnation awards) but not upon other assets of Landlord.  No individual
partner, trustee, stockholder, officer, director, employee, or beneficiary of
Landlord shall be personally liable under this Lease and Tenant shall look
solely to Landlord's interest in the Property in pursuit of its remedies upon an
event of default hereunder, and the general assets of Landlord and its partners,

                                 Page 22 of 35
<PAGE>

trustees, stockholders, officers, employees or beneficiaries of Landlord shall
not be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedure for the
satisfaction of the remedies of Tenant.

     17.02 (b)  NOTICE.  Tenant shall give notice of any failure by Landlord to
perform any of its obligations under this Lease to Landlord and to any ground
lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary under any deed of trust encumbering the
Property whose name and address shall have been furnished in writing to Tenant.
Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease unless Landlord (or such
ground lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary) shall fall to cure such non-performance
within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant's notice.  However, if such non-
performance shall reasonably require more than thirty (30) days to cure,
Landlord shall not be in default if such cure shall be commenced within such
thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion.

17.03  SEVERABILITY.  A determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that
any provision of this Lease or any part thereof is illegal or unenforceable
shall not cancel or invalidate the remainder of such provision of this Lease,
which shall remain in full force and effect.

17.04  INTERPRETATION.  The captions of the Articles or Sections of this Lease
are not a part of the terms or provisions of this Lease. Whenever required by
the context of this Lease, the singular shall include the plural and the plural
shall include the singular. The masculine, feminine and neuter genders shall
each include the other, in any provision relating to the conduct, acts or
omissions of Tenant, the term "Tenant" shall include Tenant's agents, employees,
contractors, invitees, successors or others using the Premises with Tenant's
expressed or implied permission.

17.05  INCORPORATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS; MODIFICATIONS.  This Lease is the only
agreement between the parties pertaining to the lease of the Premises and no
other agreements shall be effective.  All amendments to this Lease shall be in
writing and signed by all parties.  Any other attempted amendment shall be void.

17.06  NOTICES.  All notices, requests and other communications required or
permitted under this Lease shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered
or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid or by a
national overnight delivery service which maintains delivery records.  Notices
to Tenant shall be delivered to the address specified in Section 1.18 above,
except that upon Tenant's taking possession of the Premises, the Premises shall
be Tenant's address for notice purposes.  Notices to Landlord shall be delivered
to the address specified in Section 1.17 above.  All notices shall be effective
upon delivery (or refusal to accept delivery). Either party may change its
notice address upon written notice to the other party.

17.07  WAIVERS.  All waivers shall be in writing and signed by the waiving
party. Landlord's failure to enforce any provision of this Lease or its
acceptance of Rent shall not be a waiver and shall not prevent Landlord from
enforcing that provision or any other provision of this Lease in the future.  No
statement on a payment check from Tenant or in a letter accompanying a payment
check shall be binding on Landlord. Landlord may, with or without notice to
Tenant, negotiate such check without being bound by to the conditions of such
statement.

17.08  NO RECORDATION.  Tenant shall not record this Lease.  Either Landlord or
Tenant may require that a notice, short form or memorandum of this Lease
executed by both parties be recorded.  The party requiring such recording shall
pay all transfer taxes and recording fees.

                                 Page 23 of 35
<PAGE>

17.09  BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW.  This Lease shall bind any party who shall
legally acquire any rights or interest in this Lease from Landlord or Tenant,
provided that Landlord shall have no obligation to Tenant's successor unless the
rights or interests of Tenant's successor are acquired in accordance with the
terms of this Lease. The laws of the state in which the Property is located
shall govern this Lease.

17.10  CORPORATE AUTHORITY; PARTNERSHIP AUTHORITY.  If Tenant is a corporation,
each person signing this Lease on behalf of Tenant represents and warrants that
(s)he has full authority to do so and that this Lease binds the corporation.
Within thirty (30) days after this Lease is signed, Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord a certified copy of a resolution of Tenant's Board of Directors
authorizing the execution of this Lease or other evidence of such authority
reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a
certified copy of a resolution of Landlord's Board of Directors authorizing the
execution of this Lease or other evidence of such authority reasonably
acceptable to Tenant.  If Tenant is a partnership, each person or entity signing
this Lease for Tenant represents and warrants that he or it is a general partner
of the partnership, that he or it has full authority to sign for the partnership
and that this Lease binds the partnership and all general partners of the
partnership.  Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord of any general
partner's withdrawal or addition from time to time.  Within thirty (30) days
after this Lease is signed, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of Tenant's
recorded statement of partnership or certificate of limited partnership.

17.11  JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY.  All parties signing this Lease as Tenant

17.12  FORCE MAJEURE.  If Landlord or Tenant cannot perform any of its
obligations due to events beyond such party's reasonable control, the time

labor disputes, strikes, fire, flood or other casualty, shortages of labor or

17.13  EXECUTION OF LEASE.  This Lease may be executed in counterparts and, when
all counterpart documents are executed, the counterparts shall constitute a
single binding instrument.  Landlord's delivery of this Lease to Tenant shall
not be deemed to be an offer to lease and shall not be binding upon either party

17.14  SURVIVAL.  All representations and warranties of Landlord and Tenant
shall survive the termination of this Lease.

17.15  EXAMINATION OF LEASE.  Submission of this Lease to Tenant shall not

17.16  SECURITY DEPOSIT.

     A.   As security for the full and prompt performance by Tenant of all of
Tenant's obligations hereunder, Tenant has upon execution of this Lease provided
to Landlord an unconditional irrevocable letter of credit in favor of Landlord
from a bank approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the "Letter of Credit"),
which provides for security in the amount of $125,000.00 through the period
ending February 29, 2000; such Letter of Credit provides for automatic
reductions thereafter (i) to the sum of $100,000.00 effective March 1, 2000
through the period ending February 28, 2001, (ii) to the sum of $75,000.00
effective March 1, 2001 through the period ending February 28, 2002, (iii) to
the sum of $50,000.00 effective March 1, 2002 through the period ending

                                 Page 24 of 35
<PAGE>

February 28, 2003, and (iv) to the sum of $25,000.00 March 1, 2004 through the
period ending February 28, 2009. Tenant agrees that, in the event of any default
by Tenant under this Lease beyond the expiration of applicable grace, notice and
cure periods, Landlord shall have the right to draw down on the Letter of Credit
in an amount necessary to cure such default ("the Cure Amount") and Tenant
agrees that within ten (10) days after such initial draw of the Cure Amount,
Tenant shall replenish the Cure Amount and shall cause the Letter of Credit to
be amended in a manner that it is restored to the full amount available
thereunder prior to such draw by Landlord. Tenant further agrees that, in
addition to all of the rights and remedies provided to Landlord pursuant to
Article 14 hereof, whether or not this Lease or Tenant's right to possession
hereunder has been terminated, (a) in the event Tenant is in default under any
of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease beyond the expiration of
applicable grace, notice and cure periods, or (b) in the event Tenant has filed
(or there has been filed against Tenant) a petition for bankruptcy protection or
other protection from its creditors under any applicable and available law which
has not been dismissed or discharged, then Landlord may at once and without any
notice whatsoever to Tenant (including, without any notice as provided in
Article 14 hereof) be entitled to draw down on the entire amount of the Letter
of Credit then available to Landlord and apply such resulting sums toward (i)
reimbursement to Landlord for all of Landlord's then unamortized costs incurred
in leasing to Tenant the Premises demised by this Lease, and (ii) reimbursement
to Landlord for any other damages suffered by Landlord as a result of such
default. Landlord agrees to reimburse Tenant for all fees incurred by Tenant in
obtaining and maintaining such Letter of Credit, so long as such fees do not
exceed on an annual basis an amount equal to one and one half (1 1/2%) of the
then face amount of such Letter of Credit.

     B.   The foregoing Letter of Credit shall provide for an original
expiration date of February 29, 2000 and shall be automatically extended without
amendment for additional successive one-year periods from the original
expiration date or any future expiration date thereof, unless sixty days prior
to any such expiration date the bank sends to Landlord by certified/registered
mail, return receipt requested or overnight courier written advice that the bank
has elected not to consider the Letter of Credit renewed for any such additional
one-year period.  In the event such bank so advises Landlord that such Letter of
Credit will not be so renewed, Landlord shall promptly thereafter notify Tenant
thereof in writing, and Tenant shall obtain a substitute Letter of Credit from a
bank reasonably approved by Landlord meeting all of the terms and conditions
described in Paragraph A. above, which substitute Letter of Credit ("Substitute
Letter of Credit") shall be reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and delivered to
Landlord no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of the
Letter of Credit then in effect.  In the event Tenant fails to deliver such
Substitute Letter of Credit to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration date of the Letter of Credit then in effect, Landlord shall in such
instance have the right without further notice to Tenant (including, without any
notice as provided in Article 14 hereof) to immediately draw down on the entire
amount of the Letter of Credit then available to Landlord; in such instance
Landlord shall retain such resulting sum as a cash security deposit and Landlord
shall have the right to use such cash security deposit to the same extent that
Landlord would be entitled to draw down on the Letter of Credit pursuant to the
terms of Paragraph A. above and Tenant shall replenish such cash security
deposit in the same manner as required for the Letter of Credit.  Landlord shall
not, unless required by law, keep the security deposit separate from its general
funds or pay interest thereon to Tenant.  No trust relationship is created
herein between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the security deposit, and the
security deposit may be commingled with other funds of Landlord.  As between
Landlord and Tenant only, all draws under the Letter of Credit (or cash security
deposit, as the case may be) and rights of Landlord to apply the proceeds of any
such draw or draft shall be subject to the provisions of this Lease.

     C.   Upon expiration of the Term of this Lease, whether by expiration or
lapse of time or otherwise, and so long as Tenant is not then in default
hereunder and after Tenant shall have vacated

                                 Page 25 of 35
<PAGE>

the Premises in the manner required by this Lease, Landlord agrees to return to
Tenant the Letter of Credit (or cash security deposit, as the case may be) then
in Landlord's possession.

17.17  LIMITATION OF WARRANTIES.  Landlord and Tenant expressly agree that there
are and shall be no implied warranties of merchantability, habitability,
suitability, fitness for a particular purpose or of any other kind arising out
of this Lease, and there are no warranties which extend beyond those expressly
set forth in this Lease.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Tenant expressly acknowledges that Landlord has made no warranties or
representations concerning any Hazardous Materials or other environmental
matters affecting any part of the Property and Landlord hereby expressly
disclaims and Tenant waives any express or implied warranties with respect to
any such matters.

17.18  NO OTHER BROKERS.  Tenant and Landlord represent and warrant to the other
that the brokers named in Section 1.12 above are the only agents, brokers,
finders or other parties with whom each party has dealt who may be entitled to
any commission or fee with respect to this Lease or the Premises or the
Property.  Each party agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from any
claim, demand, cost or liability, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, asserted by any party other than the brokers named
in Section 1.12.

ARTICLE EIGHTEEN: TENANT IMPROVEMENT ALLOWANCE
----------------------------------------------

18.01  TENANT IMPROVEMENT ALLOWANCE.  Within fifteen (15) days following
presentation to Landlord of invoices and receipts and final lien waivers,
Landlord agrees to pay to Tenant or credit against invoices therefor an
allowance (the "Tenant Improvement Allowance") in an amount not to exceed the
sum of Two Hundred Forty-five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($245,000.00) to be
applied toward payment or reimbursement of costs incurred in connection with any
improvements Tenant desires to perform in the office and warehouse portions of
the Premises in preparation for its initial occupancy thereof, including without
limitation payment of costs associated with architectural, engineering,
permitting, construction and construction management costs, and computer and
telecommunications cabling costs.  All such work shall be subject to, and
performed in accordance with the conditions set forth in Section 10.05 hereof.
Tenant expressly covenants and agrees that, in the event the current occupant of
the warehouse portion of the Premises remains in occupancy of such space during
the time Tenant commences any improvement work in the office portion of the
Premises, Tenant will perform such work in a manner that does not unreasonably
interfere with or disrupt the use of the warehouse portion of the Premises.  If,
in the course of performing the initial improvement work, Tenant becomes aware
of any Hazardous Materials existing in the Premises prior to the Commencement
Date in violation of existing applicable laws, Landlord agrees that Landlord
shall be responsible for the cost of remedying any such violation to the extent
required by any governmental authority.

     The foregoing Tenant Improvement Allowance is for Tenant personally and may
not be applied or used for the benefit of any subtenant approved by Landlord nor
will such Allowance inure to the benefit of any permitted assignee of Tenant.
It shall be a condition to the application of such Tenant Improvement Allowance
that Tenant not be in default under any of the terms, covenants and conditions
of this Lease beyond the expiration of applicable notice, grace and cure periods
at any time such Allowance is requested.  The Tenant Improvement Allowance is
applicable only in connection with improvements to be made to the Premises and
payment of the above-described referral fee.  It shall be a condition of
Landlord's obligation to pay Tenant any portion of such Allowance that Tenant
provide Landlord with contractor's affidavits and final waivers of lien from
those persons entitled to lien rights against the Premises covering all labor
and materials expended and used, and invoices reasonably

                                 Page 26 of 35
<PAGE>

acceptable to Landlord establishing the actual cost of and full payment for all
items purchased with such Allowance. Funds may be drawn against the Tenant
Improvement Allowance for a period of six (6) months after the Lease
Commencement Date.
