  • 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.

  • 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.

                all motor vehicles operated by TENANT. LANDLORD shall have the
                right to use portions of the common areas for the purpose of
                displays, promotions, programs, games, or other uses which may

                therein and for any other legitimate purpose.

                SECTION 4. TENANT agrees to pay as additional rent TENANT's
                proportionate share of all expenditures incurred by LANDLORD in
                managing, maintaining, repairing, replacing, operating,
                insuring, securing, lighting and cleaning the common areas
                including, but not limited to, the cost of snow removal, line
                and exterior painting, insurance of employees, traffic
                regulation, security patrols and security guards for the entire
                shopping center, replacement of paving, curbs, sidewalks,
                landscaping, drainage, roof and lighting facilities, and
                including the cost of heating and air conditioning the shopping
                center enclosed mall and walkway areas, if any, (plus fifteen
                percent (15%) of the total of the foregoing for overhead) in
                monthly payments with the monthly rent payments. TENANT's
                proportionate share of such costs shall be based on the
                proportion the total square foot area on the ground floor in the
                leased premises bears to the total square foot rentable area on
                the ground floor in the shopping center. The monthly payments
                may be based on LANDLORD's reasonable estimate of the costs
                subject hereto made at the beginning of each lease year. At the
                end of each lease year, LANDLORD shall furnish a statement of
                all costs subject hereto and TENANT's share thereof certified to
                by LANDLORD. If, at the end of any lease year, the amount paid
                by TENANT is greater than its share as shown on said statement,
                the excess shall be credited against the next rent payments due
                hereunder. If at the end of any lease year, the amount paid by
                TENANT is less than its share as shown on said statement, the
                deficiency shall be payable with the next monthly minimum rent
                payment due hereunder.

                LANDLORD's prior written consent, place or permit any radio or
                television antenna, loud speaker or sound amplifier, or any
                phonograph or other devices similar to any of the foregoing
                outside of the leased premises or at any place where the same
                may be seen or heard outside of the leased premises; nor, where
                loading and delivery facilities are provided, use or permit to
                be used entrances for delivery or pick-up of merchandise or
                supplies to or from the leased premises, or permit trucks or

                at any time in or about the shopping center.

                SECTION 3. (text deleted)

                SECTION 4. LANDLORD reserves the right, without liability to
                TENANT, to refuse admission to the shopping center and the
                leased premises outside ordinary business hours to any person
                who is not known to any watchman in charge, or who is not
                properly identified, to eject any person from the shopping
                center whose conduct may be harmful to the safety and interest
                of shopping center tenants or to close any part of the shopping
                center during any riot or other commotion where person or
                property may be imperiled.

                SECTION 5. TENANT shall use the shopping center name as its
                advertised address when referring to its business in the leased
                premises in newspaper and other advertising. The right to use
                such name for such purpose for the term of this lease is hereby
                licensed by LANDLORD to TENANT. LANDLORD retains all property
                rights in such name and TENANT shall not acquire or have any
                rights in or to such name other than as are expressly granted by
                LANDLORD in this Section 5 or otherwise in writing.

                                    ARTICLE 8


UTILITIES:      SECTION 1. TENANT shall pay for all heating, air conditioning,
                electricity, gas, water and sewer charges used in the leased
                premises throughout the term of this lease.

                SECTION 2. If TENANT receives utilities through a meter which
                utilities are also supplied to other tenants of the shopping
                center, then TENANT shall pay to LANDLORD as additional rent a
                sum equivalent to its proportionate share of the total utility
                meter charge as TENANT'S portion thereof. TENANT shall pay
                LANDLORD, as additional rent, along with TENANT'S payment of
                monthly rent a sum equivalent to TENANT'S consumption of said
                services as computed by LANDLORD.

                SECTION 3. TENANT agrees to keep the air conditioning and
                heating systems operating during business hours at levels
                sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the leased premises
                and that it will not at any time obtain or seek to obtain any
                such conditioned or heated air by methods or means which would
                draw such conditioned or heated air from the air conditioned and
                heated shopping center enclosed mall and walkway areas, if any.

                SECTION 4. LANDLORD shall not be liable in damages or otherwise
                if the furnishings by LANDLORD or by any other supplier of any
                utility or other service to the leased premises shall be
                interrupted or impaired by fire, repairs, accident, or by any
                causes beyond LANDLORD's reasonable control.

                SECTION 5. In compliance with the Federal Energy Policy and
                Conservation Act of 1975, LANDLORD has provided within the
                leased premises a heating and air conditioning system capable of
                maintaining a summer indoor condition of 78 DEG. F, and a winter
                indoor condition of 65 DEG. F, such temperatures to be taken
                approximately two (2) feet away from any wall.

                                    ARTICLE 9

TAXES:          SECTION 1.  LANDLORD shall pay all real property taxes and
                installments of special assessments payable therewith on the
                shopping center land and improvements payable during the lease
                term and rental taxes on rentals levied during the term hereof
                upon the rentals from the leased premises. TENANT shall
                reimburse LANDLORD for TENANT's share of such payments of real
                property taxes and installments of special assessments. TENANT's
                share of such costs shall be based on the ratio that the total
                square foot floor area on the ground floor in the leased
                premises bears to the total square foot rentable floor area on
                the ground floor in the shopping center except buildings
                separately taxed or assessed for which such taxes and
                assessments are directly allocated to their tenants. TENANT
                shall also reimburse LANDLORD for rental taxes, and gross
                receipts taxes, if any, paid by LANDLORD on rentals from the
                leased premises. One-twelfth of a full year's taxes,
                installments of which are next payable, shall be payable on the
                first day of each month and added to the monthly rental. This
                amount may be based on LANDLORD's reasonable estimate until the
                actual tax amounts are available and when available an
                adjustment shall be made and any difference shall be payable
                based on TENANT's actual share as determined. TENANT's share of
                such taxes payable in the first and last calendar year of the
                lease term shall be equitably prorated based on the portion of
                the year included in the lease term. TENANT shall pay all
                personal property and similar taxes on its property in the
                leased premises.

                authority) make modifications or replacements thereof, except
                that LANDLORD shall not be required to make any such repairs,
                modifications or replacements which become necessary or
                desirable by reason of the negligence of TENANT, its agents,
                servants or employees.


                SECTION 2. (text deleted)

                SECTION 3. Except as provided in Section 1 and 2 of this
                Article, the LANDLORD shall have the right at TENANT's cost and
                expense but shall not be obliged to make repairs, replacements
                or improvements of any kind upon the leased premises, or any
                equipment, facilities or fixtures therein contained, including
                heating and air conditioning equipment or other equipment
                serving only the leased premises even if located outside the
                leased premises, which at all times TENANT shall repair, replace
                and keep in good order and in a clean, sanitary and safe
                condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, in accordance with
                all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations of any
                governmental authority having jurisdiction. If LANDLORD
                exercises its rights pursuant to this Section 3, TENANT shall
                reimburse LANDLORD for costs and expenses incurred hereunder
                upon demand. TENANT shall permit no waste, damage or injury to
                the leased premises.

                SECTION 4. TENANT shall forthwith at its own cost and expense
                replace with glass of the same quality any cracked or broken
                glass, including plate glass or glass or other special breakable
                materials used in structural portions, and any interior and
                exterior windows and doors in the leased premises. If
                specifically required by LANDLORD, TENANT shall maintain a
                policy or policies in acceptable companies insuring LANDLORD and
                TENANT, as their interests may appear, against breakage of all
                such glass in the leased premises.

                                   ARTICLE 11

INSTALLATIONS,  SECTION 1. TENANT, at its own expense, shall purchase, install
ALTERATIONS     and maintain in good condition its trade fixtures and floor
AND SIGNS:      covering, and all interior wall coverings and decorating.

                SECTION 2. TENANT shall not make any repairs, alterations or
                additions to the leased premises or make any contract therefor
                without first procuring LANDLORD's written consent and
                delivering to LANDLORD the plans and specifications and copies
                of the proposed contracts and necessary permits, and shall
                furnish indemnification against liens, costs, damages and
                expenses as LANDLORD may require. All alterations, additions,
                improvements and fixtures, other than trade fixtures, which may
                be made or installed by either of the parties hereto upon the
                leased premises and which in any manner are attached to the
                floors, walls or ceiling shall, at the termination of the lease,
                become the property of LANDLORD, and shall remain upon and be
                surrendered with the leased premises as a part thereof, without
                damage or injury; any floor covering affixed to the floor or
                track lighting affixed to the ceiling shall likewise become the
                property of LANDLORD, all without compensation or credit to
                TENANT. All fixtures installed by TENANT shall be new or

                SECTION 3. TENANT shall promptly pay all contractors and
                materialmen, so as to avoid the possibility of a lien attaching
                to the leased premises, and should any lien be made or filed,
                TENANT shall bond against or discharge the same within ten (10)
                days after written request by LANDLORD. Nothing in this lease
                contained shall be construed as a consent on the part of the
                LANDLORD so as to subject the LANDLORD's estate in the leased
                premises to any lien or liability under the lien laws of the
                State in which the leased premises are located.

                against any and all claims, demands, damages, costs and
                expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from the
                conduct or management of the business conducted by TENANT or
                from any breach or default on the part of TENANT in the
                performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of TENANT
                to be performed pursuant to the terms of this lease, or from any

                claims for damages to person or property sustained by TENANT or
                TENANT's employees, agents, servants, contractors, sublessees,
                concessionaires, invitees, and customers resulting from the
                building in which the leased premises are located or by reason
                of the leased premises or any equipment or appurtenances
                thereunto appertaining becoming out of repair, or resulting from
                any accident in or about the leased premises, the building in

                from any act or neglect of any other tenant in the shopping
                center. This shall apply especially, but not exclusively, to the
                flooding of the leased premises, and to damage caused by steam,
                excessive heat or cold, falling plaster, broken glass, sewage,
                gas, odors or noise, or the bursting or leaking of pipes or
                plumbing fixtures. All property belonging to TENANT or any
                occupant of the leased premises or the shopping center shall be
                there at the risk of TENANT or such person only, and LANDLORD
                shall not be liable for damage thereto or theft or
                misappropriation thereof.

INSURANCE:      SECTION 1. TENANT shall not carry any stock of goods or do
                anything in or about the leased premises which shall in any way
                tend to increase insurance rates on the leased premises or the
                building in which the same are located without the consent of
                LANDLORD. If LANDLORD shall consent to such use, TENANT agrees
                to pay as additional rental any increase in premiums for
                insurance resulting from the business carried on in the leased
                premises by TENANT. If TENANT installs any electrical equipment
                that overloads the power lines to the building, TENANT shall, at
                its own expense, make whatever changes are necessary to avoid
                such overload and to comply with the requirements of insurance
                underwriters and insurance rating bureaus and governmental
                authorities having jurisdiction.

                SECTION 2. TENANT agrees to procure and maintain a policy or
                policies of liability insurance, at its own cost and expense,
                insuring LANDLORD and TENANT from all claims, demands, or
                actions for injury or death sustained by one or more persons as
                a result of any one occurrence in the amount of One Million
                Dollars ($1,000,000), and for damage to property in an amount of
                not less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) made by or
                on behalf of any person or persons, firm or corporation arising
                from, related to or connected with, the conduct and operation of
                TENANT's business in the leased premises. Said insurance shall
                not be subject to cancellation except after at least ten
                (10) days' prior written notice to LANDLORD, and the policy or
                policies, or duly executed certificate or certificates for the
                same, shall be deposited with LANDLORD at the commencement of
                the term and upon any renewal of said insurance not less than
                thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the term of such
                coverage.

                SECTION 3. LANDLORD may procure fire and extended coverage
                (including coverage for rental loss in connection with damage
                and destruction covered by the said fire and extended coverage
                insurance) and other reasonably necessary insurance on the
                shopping center. Such insurance shall be for the benefit of
                LANDLORD and TENANT shall have no interest therein. TENANT shall
                reimburse LANDLORD, monthly with its rental payments, for its
                share of the actual net cost and expense to LANDLORD of such
                insurance. TENANT's share of such costs shall be that fractional
                part of the total of such costs as the total area of the leased
                premises bears to the total rentable area of all buildings and
                structures constituting part of this shopping center.
                One-twelfth of the amount due shall be payable on the first day
                of each month and added to the monthly rental. This amount may
                be based on an estimate until the actual premiums are available
                and when available an adjustment shall be made and any
                difference shall be payable based on TENANT's actual share as
                determined.

                SECTION 4. TENANT shall maintain at its own cost and expense,
                fire and extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief and
                special extended coverage insurance in an amount adequate to
                cover the cost of replacement of all alterations, changes, wall
                coverings, floors, furnishings, decorations, additions, fixtures
                and improvements in the leased premises in the event of a loss,
                in companies and in form acceptable to LANDLORD. The insurance
                which the TENANT agrees to carry in this Section shall insure
                the full insurable value of the improvements and betterments
                installed by the TENANT in the leased premises, whether the same
                have been paid for entirely or partially by TENANT. TENANT will
                further deposit the certificate thereof with LANDLORD.

                SECTION 5. If TENANT fails to comply with the requirements of
                this Article 13, LANDLORD may obtain such insurance and keep the
                same in effect and TENANT shall pay LANDLORD the premium costs
                thereof on demand.

                                   ARTICLE 14

OTHER           totally destroyed by any fire or other casualty so as to become
CASUALTY:       partially or totally untenantable, the same shall be repaired at
                the expense of LANDLORD, (unless LANDLORD shall elect not to
                rebuild, as hereinafter provided), and the rent shall abate
                until the leased premises are repaired and the extent to which
                the leased premises are untenantable. SEE EXHIBIT D.

                SECTION 2. In case the shopping center buildings, including
                common areas, shall be destroyed or so damaged by fire or other
                casualty as to render more than fifty percent (50%) thereof
                untenantable, or if the unexpired term of this lease is two (2)
                years or less on the date of any substantial destruction or
                damage, then LANDLORD may, if it so elects by notice in writing
                within thirty (30) days after such destruction or damage,
                terminate this lease. The above shall apply whether or not any
                part of the leased premises is damaged or destroyed. LANDLORD's
                obligation to repair or rebuild pursuant to this Article shall
                be limited to a basic building and the replacement of any
                interior work which may have originally been installed at
                LANDLORD's cost. In no event in the case of any such destruction
                shall LANDLORD be required to repair or replace TENANT's stock
                in trade, leasehold improvements, fixtures, furniture,
                furnishings or floor coverings and equipment. TENANT covenants
                to make such repairs and replacements and to furnish LANDLORD,
                on demand, evidence of insurance assuring its ability to do so.

                                   ARTICLE 15

EMINENT         SECTION 1. If the whole of the leased premises shall be taken
DOMAIN:         under the power of eminent domain, then the term of this lease
                shall cease as of the day possession shall be taken and the rent
                shall be paid up to that date.

                SECTION 2. In the event more than ten percent (10%) of the land
                area in the shopping center is so taken, the LANDLORD shall have
                the right to terminate this lease at the time and with the rent
                adjustment as provided in Section 1 by giving TENANT written
                notice of termination within sixty (60) days after the taking of
                possession by such public authority.

                SECTION 3. If any of the floor area of the leased premises or
                forty percent (40%) or more of the parking area shall be so
                taken, then LANDLORD or TENANT shall have the right either to
                terminate this lease, or, subject, in the case of TENANT, to
                LANDLORD's rights of termination as set forth in this Article,
                to continue in possession of the remainder of the leased
                premises upon notice in writing to the other party hereto within
                thirty (30) days after such taking of possession. In the event
                this lease is not terminated, all of the terms herein provided
                shall continue in effect except that the rent shall be equitably
                abated as to any portion of the leased premises so taken and
                LANDLORD shall make all necessary repairs or alterations to the
                extent provided in Article 14, Section 2 of this lease.

                SECTION 4. All damages awarded for such taking under the power
                of eminent domain, whether for the whole or a part of the leased
                premises, shall be the property of LANDLORD, whether such
                damages shall be awarded as compensation for diminution in value
                of the leasehold or to the fee of the leased premises; provided,
                however, that LANDLORD shall not be entitled to any separate
                award made to TENANT for loss of business, depreciation of or
                cost of removal of stock and fixtures.

ASSIGNMENT      SECTION 1. TENANT shall not assign or in any manner transfer
AND SUBLETTING: this lease or any interest therein, nor sublet said leased
                premises or any part or parts thereof, nor permit occupancy by
                anyone without the prior written consent of LANDLORD. Consent by
                LANDLORD to one or more assignments of this lease or to one or
                more sublettings of the leased premises shall not operate as a
                waiver of LANDLORD's rights under this Article. No assignment
                shall release TENANT of any of its obligations under this lease
                or be construed or taken as a waiver of any of LANDLORD's rights
                hereunder. For the purposes hereof, if TENANT is a corporation
                or partnership or other entity, any change in the ownership of
                TENANT shall be deemed to be an assignment which shall require
                LANDLORD's consent as above set forth. The acceptance of rent
                from someone other than TENANT shall not be deemed to be a
                waiver of any of the provisions of this lease or consent to any
                assignment or subletting of the leased premises. SEE EXHIBIT D.

                SECTION 2. TENANT agrees not to change the advertised name of
                the place of business operated in the leased premises, which
                name shall be ADC Kentrox without prior consent of LANDLORD.
                              -----------

                SECTION 3. Neither this lease nor any interest therein, shall
                pass to any trustees or receiver in bankruptcy, or any assignee
                for the benefit of creditors, or by operation of law.

                                   ARTICLE 17

ACCESS TO       SECTION 1. LANDLORD shall have the right to enter upon the
PREMISES:       leased premises during all business hours for the purpose of
                inspecting the same or of making repairs, additions or
                alterations thereto or to the building in which the same are
                located, or for the purpose of exhibiting the same to
                prospective tenants, purchasers or others.  LANDLORD's exercise
                of such right shall not be deemed an eviction or disturbance of
                TENANT's use or possession.

                                   ARTICLE 18

REMEDIES:       SECTION 1. LANDLORD may terminate TENANT's estate herein demised
                and TENANT's right to possession hereunder upon the failure of
                TENANT to pay an installment of rent when due or to perform any
                other of its covenants under this lease and the continuance of
                such default for thirty (30) days (ten (10) days in the case of
                the payment of rent or other monetary obligations of TENANT
                hereunder) after written notice to TENANT.

                SECTION 2. If, at any time during the term of this lease (a) the
                TENANT shall file in any court a petition in bankruptcy or
                insolvency or for reorganization, or for arrangement or for the
                appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or a portion of the
                TENANT's property, or (b) an involuntary petition of any kind
                referred to in Subdivision (a) of this Section shall be filed
                against the TENANT, and such petition shall not be vacated or
                withdrawn within thirty (30) days after the date of filing
                thereof, or (c) if the TENANT shall make an assignment for the
                benefit of creditors, or (d) if the TENANT shall be adjudicated
                a bankrupt, or (e) a receiver shall be appointed for the
                property of the TENANT by order of a court of competent
                jurisdiction (except where such receiver shall be appointed in
                an involuntary proceeding, if he shall not be withdrawn within
                thirty (30) days from the date of appointment), TENANT's estate
                and right to possession hereunder shall terminate ipso facto
                upon the happening of any one of such events, and the TENANT
                shall then quit and surrender the leased premises to the
                LANDLORD, but the TENANT shall remain liable as hereinafter
                provided.

                SECTION 3. Upon the termination of the estate as aforesaid, the
                LANDLORD may re-enter the leased premises by any lawful means,
                and remove all persons and chattels therefrom and LANDLORD shall
                not be liable for damages or otherwise by reason of lawful
                re-entry or termination. Notwithstanding such termination, the
                liability of TENANT for the rent provided for hereinabove shall
                not be extinguished for the balance of the term remaining after
                said termination.

                Should termination of TENANT's estate as herein provided, or
                should LANDLORD take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or
                pursuant to any notice provided for by law, it may either
                terminate this lease or it may from time to time without
                terminating this lease, make such alterations and repairs as may
                be necessary in order to relet the premises, and relet said
                premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may
                be for a term extending beyond the term of this lease) and at
                such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions
                as LANDLORD in its sole discretion may deem advisable; upon each
                such reletting all rentals received by the

                                        9

<PAGE>

                LANDLORD from such reletting shall be applied, first, to the
                payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from
                TENANT to LANDLORD; second, to the payment of any costs and
                expenses of such reletting, including brokerage fees and
                attorneys' fees and of costs of such alterations and repairs;
                third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder, and the
                residue, if any, shall be held by LANDLORD and applied in
                payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable
                hereunder.

                If such rentals received from such reletting during any month be
                less than that to be paid during that month by TENANT hereunder,
                TENANT shall pay any such deficiency to LANDLORD. Such
                deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. No such
                re-entry or taking possession of said premises by LANDLORD shall
                be construed as an election on its part to terminate this lease
                unless a written notice of such intention be given to TENANT or
                unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of
                competent jurisdiction.

                Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, LANDLORD
                may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this lease for
                such previous breach. Should LANDLORD at any time terminate this
                lease for any breach, in addition to any other remedies it may
                have, it may recover from TENANT all damages it may incur by
                reason of such breach, including the cost of recovering the
                leased premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, and including the
                worth at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of
                the amount of rent and charges equivalent to rent reserved in
                this lease for the remainder of the stated term over the then
                reasonable rental value of the leased premises for the remainder
                of the stated term, all of which amounts shall be immediately
                due and payable from TENANT to LANDLORD.

                SECTION 4. In the event of any breach hereunder by TENANT,
                LANDLORD may immediately or at any time thereafter, without
                notice, cure such breach for the account and at the expense of
                TENANT. If LANDLORD at any time by reason of such breach, is
                compelled to pay, or elects to pay, any sum of money or do any
                act which will require the payment of any sum of money, or is
                compelled to incur any expense, including reasonable attorneys'
                fees, the sum or sums so paid by LANDLORD, with interest thereon
                at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the highest
                rate permitted by law, whichever is less, from the date of
                payment thereof, shall be deemed to be due from TENANT to
                LANDLORD on the first day of the month following the payment of
                such respective sums or expenses.

                SECTION 5. LANDLORD is hereby given a lien upon all property of
                TENANT which shall come in or be placed upon the leased premises
                and whether acquired by TENANT before or after the date hereof
                to secure the payment of rent and the performance of each and
                every covenant herein contained to be performed by TENANT. Upon
                default by TENANT, and failure to cure as provided in Section 1
                of this Article, LANDLORD, with notice or demand, may take
                possession of and sell such property with legal process at
                public or private sale after one publication of a notice thereof
                in a daily newspaper published in the county where the leased
                premises are situated, not less than ten (10) days before such
                sale or by giving minimum notices required by law. The proceeds
                of any such sale shall be applied first to the payment of
                expenses thereof, second to the discharge of the rent or other
                liability hereunder unpaid, and the balance, if any, shall be
                held for the account of the TENANT. TENANT agrees to execute and
                record any financing statements and other documents necessary to
                perfect of record the lien herein granted.

                SECTION 6. Should LANDLORD be in default under the terms of this
                lease, LANDLORD shall have reasonable and adequate time in which
                to cure the same after written notice to LANDLORD by TENANT.

                SECTION 7. TENANT hereby expressly waives, to the full extent
                waivable, any and all rights or redemption granted by or under
                any present or future laws in the event of TENANT being evicted
                or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of LANDLORD
                obtaining possession of the leased premises, by reason of the
                violation by TENANT of any of the covenants or conditions of
                this lease, or otherwise.

                                   ARTICLE 19

SURRENDER OF    SECTION 1. At the expiration of the lease term, whether by lapse
POSSESSION:     of time or otherwise, TENANT shall surrender the leased premises
                broom clean and in good condition and repair, reasonable wear
                and tear and loss by fire or unavoidable, insurable casualty
                excepted. If the leased premises are not surrendered at the end
                of the term or the sooner termination thereof, TENANT shall
                indemnify LANDLORD against loss or liability resulting from
                delay by TENANT in so surrendering the premises. TENANT shall
                promptly surrender all keys for the leased premises to

                                       10

<PAGE>

                LANDLORD at the place then fixed for payment of rent.

                SECTION 2. In the event TENANT remains in possession of the
                leased premises after the expiration of the tenancy created
                hereunder with the consent of LANDLORD and without execution of
                a new lease, it shall be deemed to be occupying the leased
                premises as a tenant from month to month, at twice the minimum
                rent, subject to all the other conditions, provisions and
                obligations of this lease insofar as the same are applicable to
                a month-to-month tenancy.

                SECTION 3. Upon the expiration of the tenancy hereby created, if
                LANDLORD so requires in writing, TENANT shall promptly remove
                any alterations, additions, improvements and fixtures other than
                trade fixtures placed in the leased premises by TENANT and
                designated in said request, and repair any damage occasioned by
                such removals at TENANT's expense, and in default hereof.
                LANDLORD may effect such removals and repairs, and TENANT shall
                pay LANDLORD the cost thereof, with interest at the rate of
                eighteen percent (18%) per annum, or the highest rate permitted
                by law whichever is less, from the date of payment by LANDLORD.

                                   ARTICLE 20

SUBORDINATION:  SECTION 1. TENANT agrees that this lease shall be subordinate to
                any mortgages or trust deeds that may hereafter be placed upon
                said leased premises and to any and all advances to be made
                thereunder, and to the interest thereon, and all renewals,
                replacements and extensions thereof provided that the mortgagee
                or trustee thereunder shall agree to recognize TENANT's rights
                hereunder as long as TENANT is not in default hereunder. TENANT
                further agrees that upon notification by LANDLORD to TENANT,
                this lease shall be or become prior to any mortgages or trust
                deeds that may heretofore or hereunder be placed on the said
                leased premises. TENANT shall execute and deliver whatever
                instruments may be required for the above purposes, and failing
                to do so within ten (10) days after demand in writing, does
                hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint LANDLORD as its
                attorney-in-fact and in its name, place and stead so to do.
                TENANT shall in the event of the sale or assignment of
                LANDLORD's interest in the building of which the leased premises
                form a part, or in the event of any proceedings brought for the
                foreclosure of, or in the event of exercise of the power of sale
                under any mortgage made by LANDLORD covering the leased
                premises, attorn to the purchase and recognize such purchaser as
                LANDLORD under this lease.

                SECTION 2. TENANT shall, upon demand, in the event any
                proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of, or in the event
                of an exercise of power of sale under any mortgage, trust deed,
                or other financing investment, made by the LANDLORD covering the
                leased premises, attorn in writing to the purchaser upon any
                such foreclosure of sale and recognize such purchase as the
                LANDLORD under the lease.

NOTICES:        SECTION 1. Whenever under this lease provision is made for
                notice of any kind, such notice shall be in writing and shall be
                deemed sufficient to TENANT if actually delivered to TENANT or
                sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
                postage prepaid, to the last Post Office address of TENANT

                requested, postage prepaid, to the LANDLORD at the address
                furnished for such purpose, or to the place then fixed for the

                address at which notices to such mortgagee or ground lessor are
                to be sent, then TENANT agrees to give to such party or parties
                notice simultaneously with any notice given to LANDLORD to
                correct any default of LANDLORD as hereinabove provided and
                agrees that such party or parties shall have the right within
                thirty (30) days after receipt of said notice, to correct or
                remedy such default before TENANT may take any action under this
                lease by reason of such default.

                and/or certificate, LANDLORD shall have the right to, as
                attorney-in-fact for TENANT, make such a statement, TENANT
                hereby constituting and irrevocably appointing LANDLORD its

TITLE:          SECTION 1. LANDLORD covenants that it has full right and
                authority to enter into this lease for the full term hereof.
                LANDLORD further covenants that TENANT, upon performing the
                covenants and agreements of this lease to be performed by said
                TENANT, will have, hold and enjoy quiet possession of the leased
                premises.

                                   ARTICLE 26

GENERAL:        SECTION 1. RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. Nothing contained herein
                shall be deemed or construed by anyone as creating the
                relationship of principal and agent or of partnership or of
                joint venture between the parties hereto.

                SECTION 2. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES AND NON-WAIVER. The various
                rights and remedies contained in this lease shall not be
                considered as exclusive of any other right or remedy, but shall
                be construed as cumulative and shall be in addition to every
                other remedy now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, or by
                statute. No delay or omission of the right to exercise any power
                by either party shall impair any such right or power, or shall
                be construed as a waiver of any default or as acquiescence
                therein. One or more waivers of any covenant, term or condition
                of this lease by either party shall not be construed by the
                other party as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the same
                covenant, term or condition. The consent or approval by either
                party to or of any act by the other party of a nature requiring
                consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render
                unnecessary consent to approval of any subsequent similar act.

                SECTION 3. HEADINGS. The headings of the several articles
                contained herein are for convenience only and do not define,
                limit or construe the contents of such articles.

                SECTION 4. BINDING EFFECT OF LEASE. The covenants, agreements
                and obligations herein contained, except as herein otherwise
                specifically provided, shall extend to, bind and inure to the
                benefit of the parties hereto and their respective personal
                representatives, heirs, successors and assigns. LANDLORD, at any
                time and from time to time may make an assignment of its

                the assumption by the assignee of the covenants and agreements
                to be  performed by LANDLORD herein, LANDLORD and its successors
                and assigns (other than the assignee of this lease) shall be
                released from any and all liabilities hereunder.

                receipt by LANDLORD of a lesser amount than the amount then due
                under this lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of
                the earliest portion thereof due, nor shall any endorsement or
                statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or
                payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and LANDLORD may
                accept such check or payment without prejudice to LANDLORD's
                right to recover the balance due or pursue any other remedy in
                this lease provided.

                SECTION 8. NO BROKERAGE. Each of the parties represents and
                warrants that there are no claims for brokerage commissions or
                finder's fees in connection with the execution of this lease,
                except as listed below, and each of the parties agrees to
                indemnify the other against, hold it harmless from, all
                liabilities arising from any such claim for which such party is
                responsible (including, without limitation, the cost of counsel
                fees in connection therewith) except as follows.

                SECTION 9. UNENFORCEABILITY. Unenforceability of any provision
                contained in this lease shall not affect or impair the validity
                of any other provision of this lease.

                SECTION 10. GOVERNING LAW. The laws of the state in which the
                shopping center is located shall govern the validity,
                performance and enforcement of this lease.

                SECTION 11. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS. Additional provisions, if
                any, are set forth on the attached Exhibit D, which is by
                reference made a part hereof.

                SECTION 12. EXHIBITS ATTACHED. The following exhibits are part
                of this lease agreement: Exhibit A, Shopping Center Site Plan;

                entities (or any combination of two or more thereof) shall sign
                this lease agreement as TENANT, the liability of each such
                individual, corporation, partnership or other entity to perform
                all obligations hereunder shall be deemed to be joint and
                several. In like manner, in the event that the TENANT named in
                this lease agreement shall be a partnership or other business
                association, the members of which are, by virtue of statute, or
                general law, subject to personal liability, then and in that
                event, the liability of each such member shall be deemed to be
                joint and several.

                SECTION 14. RIGHT TO REPAIR. LANDLORD shall have the right to
                install, maintain, use, repair and replace pipes, ducts,
                conduits, and wires leading through the leased premises and
                serving other parts of the building in locations which will not
                materially interfere with the TENANT's use thereof.

                SECTION 15. TENANT'S CONFLICTS. TENANT hereby covenants,
                warrants and represents that by executing this lease and by the
                operation of the leased premises under this lease, it is not
                violating, has not violated and will not be violating any
                restrictive covenant or agreement contained in any other lease
                or contract affecting the TENANT or any affiliate, associate or
                any other person or entity with whom or with which TENANT is
                related or

                                       13

<PAGE>

                connected financially or otherwise. TENANT hereby covenants and
                agrees to indemnify and save harmless LANDLORD any future owner
                of the fee or any part thereof, and any mortgagee thereof
                against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages,
                penalties, claims, costs and expenses, including attorneys'
                fees, paid, suffered or incurred by them or any of them as a
                result of any breach of the foregoing covenant. TENANT's
                liability under this covenant extends to the acts and omissions
                of any sub-tenant, and any agent, servant, employee or licensee
                of any sub-tenant of TENANT.

                SECTION 16. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Anything in this lease to the
                contrary notwithstanding, LANDLORD and TENANT each hereby waives
                any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or
                cause-of-action, against the other, its agents (including
                partners, both general and limited), officers, directors,
                shareholders or employees, for any loss or damage that may occur
                to the leased premises, or any improvements thereto, or said
                shopping center of which the leased premises are a part, or any
                improvements thereto, or any property of such party therein, by
                reason of fire, the elements, or any other cause which could be
                insured against under the terms of standard fire and extended
                coverage insurance policies, regardless of cause or origin,
                including negligence of the other party hereto, its agents,
                officers or employees, and covenants that no insurer shall hold
                any right of subrogation against such other party.

                SECTION 17. EXECUTION OF LEASE BY LANDLORD AND LANDLORD'S
                EXCULPATION. The submission of this document for examination and
                negotiation does not constitute an offer to lease, or a
                reservation of, or option for, the leased premises and this
                document becomes effective and binding only upon the execution
                and delivery hereof by LANDLORD and TENANT. All negotiations,
                considerations, representations and understandings between
                LANDLORD and TENANT are incorporated herein and may be modified
                or altered only by agreement in writing between LANDLORD and
                TENANT and no act or omission of any employee or agent of
                LANDLORD or of LANDLORD's broker shall alter, change, or modify
                any of the provisions hereof. Further, if the LANDLORD or any
                successor in interest shall be an individual, joint venture,
                tenancy in common, firm, or partnership, general or limited,
                there shall be no personal liability on such individual or on
                the members of such joint venture, tenancy in common, firm, or
                partnership or on such joint venture, tenancy in common, firm,
                or partnership, in respect to any of the covenants or conditions
                of this lease, and in the event of any default or breach by
                LANDLORD with respect to any of the terms, covenants and
                conditions of this lease to be observed, honored or performed by
                LANDLORD, TENANT shall look solely to the estate and property of
                LANDLORD in the land and buildings owned by LANDLORD comprising
                the shopping center for the collection of any judgment (or any
                other judicial procedures requiring the payment of money by
                LANDLORD) and no other property or assets of LANDLORD shall be
                subject to levy, execution, or other procedures for satisfaction
                of TENANT's remedies.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, LANDLORD and TENANT have signed and sealed this lease as of
the day and year first above written.

LANDLORD'S AND TENANT'S CONSTRUCTION:

Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that it is aware of the requirements set
forth in the Americans with Disabilities Act 42 U.S.C. Secs. 12101-12213 (the
"ADA") and warrants that all construction done by Tenant in connection with the
terms and conditions of this lease, both in the first instance and subsequently
throughout the term of this Lease, shall be in compliance with the requirements
of the ADA.  If the Landlord grants its consent to proposed changes to be made
by the Tenant in the leased premises, the granting of such consent by the
Landlord will not mean that the Tenant's proposed changes necessarily comply
with the ADA; the question of compliance is the Tenant's responsibility.

Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless and shall protect and defend Landlord in any
cause of action brought against Landlord or to which Landlord is a defendant,
arising out of alleged violations of the ADA., wherein, by the provisions of
this Lease, Tenant was obligated to and failed to comply with any provision of
the ADA.

                              ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS



ARTICLE 1, SECTION 2 - TERM: The term of this lease shall commence upon the
earlier of (i) the date upon which Tenant opens the leased premises for
business, or (ii) September 1, 1993, and the lease term shall be three years,
plus that period of time, if any, prior to September 1, 1993 that Tenant is open
for business in the leased premises.

Tenant shall have the right to use and occupy the leased premises for the period
from the date upon which the leased premises are turned over to Tenant until the
commencement of the lease term (the "construction period") for purposes of
adapting the premises to Tenant's use under this lease.  Tenant's use and
occupancy of the leased premises during the construction period shall be
governed by all the terms and conditions of this lease, including, but not
limited to, the payment by Tenant of all charges for utility services furnished
to the leased premises; provided, however, that Tenant shall not owe or pay
Landlord any sums for minimum rent, real estate taxes, insurance, or common area
maintenance associated with the leased premises during said construction period.

ARTICLE 11, SECTION 2 - INSTALLATIONS AND ALTERATIONS BY TENANT: If Tenant uses
non-union workers to construct installations or alterations to the leased
premises pursuant to this Section 2, and any labor disputes arise as a result
thereof, Tenant shall (i) promptly resolve such dispute; and (ii) indemnify
Landlord from any and all damages suffered by Landlord as a result of Tenant's
use of said non-union labor.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2 to the
contrary, Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord's consent before
Tenant makes repairs, alterations or additions to the leased premises ("Tenant
Changes") if such Tenant Changes do not cost more than $3,000 and do not affect
or change the roof or structure of the building.

ARTICLE 12, INDEMNITY - SECTION 1:

     A.   TENANT agrees to indemnify and save LANDLORD harmless against any and
all claims, demands, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, arising from the conduct or management of the business
conducted by TENANT or from any breach or default on the part of TENANT in the
performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of TENANT to be performed
pursuant to the terms of this lease, or from any act or negligence of TENANT,
its agents, contractors, servants, employees, sublessees, concessionaires or
licensees, in or about the leased premises and the loading platform area
allocated to the use of TENANT.  TENANT's general liability insurance described
in Article 13, Section 2 hereof insuring LANDLORD and TENANT shall be primary
insurance coverage with no right of contribution as to all claims for damage to
person or property sustained by TENANT's employees, agents, servants,
contractors, sublessees, concessionaires, invitees, and customers resulting from
the building in which the leased premises are located or by reason of the leased
premises or any equipment or

<PAGE>

appurtenances thereunto appertaining becoming out of repair, or resulting from
any accident in or about the leased premises, or resulting directly or
indirectly from any act or neglect of any other tenant in the shopping center.
The terms of the foregoing sentence shall apply especially, but not
exclusively, to the flooding of the leased premises, and to damage caused by
steam, excessive heat or cold, falling plaster, broken glass, sewage, gas, odors
or noise, or the bursting or leaking of pipes or plumbing fixtures.  All
property belonging to TENANT or any occupant of the leased premises or the
shopping center shall be there at the risk of TENANT or such person only, and
LANDLORD shall not be liable for damage thereto or theft or misappropriation
thereof.

     B.   LANDLORD agrees to indemnify and save harmless TENANT from and against
all claims, demands, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, arising from any property damage or personal injury caused by
the negligent act or misconduct of LANDLORD or LANDLORD's agents, servants, or
employees, where such property damage or personal injury occurs outside of the
leased premises but within the shopping center.

ARTICLE 14, SECTION 1 - FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY:  If Landlord fails to restore
the leased premises to tenantable condition as described in this Article within
ninety (90) days after the date of destruction, then Tenant may elect to
terminate this lease by providing Landlord with ten (10) days' prior written
notice of termination.

ARTICLE 16, SECTION 1 - ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING:  Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have the right, without the consent of
Landlord first obtained, to assign this lease to its parent company, if any, or
to any affiliate or subsidiary corporation, or a corporation into which Tenant
shall be merged or sold, provided, however, that Tenant shall remain liable for
the performance of all Tenant obligations under this lease, and provided further
that such assignee shall agree in writing to assume all of Tenant's obligations
hereunder.

ARTICLE 26, SECTION 5 - FORCE MAJEURE:  Whenever a period of time is herein
provided for either party to do or perform any act or thing, that party shall
not be liable or responsible for any delays, and applicable periods for
performance shall be extended accordingly, due to strikes, lockouts, riots, acts
of God, shortages of labor or materials, national emergency, acts of a public
enemy, governmental restrictions, laws or regulations, or any other cause or
causes, whether similar or dissimilar to those enumerated, beyond its reasonable
control, provided the party prevented from performing gives the other party
written notice of such cause promptly after its commencement; however, either
party may terminate this lease by giving the other party written notice thereof
if such cause continues for a period of 45 days, except in the case of the
Landlord's obligation to deliver the leased premises to the Tenant at the
commencement of the initial term of this lease, in which case such right shall
arise after the expiration of 15 days after the commencement of such a cause.
The provisions of this Section 5 shall not operate to excuse TENANT

                                        2

<PAGE>

from prompt payment of rent, percentage rent, additional rent, or other monetary
payments required by the terms of this lease.

ARTICLE 26, SECTION 6 - RECORDING OF LEASE:  Either party will, upon the written
request of the other party, execute a short-form lease ("Memorandum of Lease")
regarding this lease, in a form suitable for recording.  Such Memorandum of
Lease will be dated as of the date of this lease and will disclose the parties,
the term of the lease, descriptions of the leased premises, Tenant's expansion
and extension rights, if any, and any such other terms and conditions as the
parties agree upon.  The party requesting the execution of such Memorandum of
Lease will bear all costs of the Memorandum of Lease, including any recording
fees.  Upon the execution of a pertinent amendment to this lease and the written
request of either party, the parties will execute a corresponding amendment to
the Memorandum of Lease, with the party requesting the execution of such
amendment bearing all costs of the amendment, including any recording fees.
Either party will, following any termination of this lease and upon the written
request of the other party, execute a document setting forth the date of such
termination, in a form suitable for recording.  Failure of a party to execute
such a document will not affect the termination, and in such event the party
requesting the document may execute and file an affidavit setting forth the date
of termination.  The party requesting the execution of such document will bear
all costs thereof, including any recording fees.

ENVIRONMENTAL AUDIT:  Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant's sole cost and
expense, to conduct a phase-I environmental audit of the leased premises.
Tenant may terminate this lease before the commencement of the lease term, with
ten (10) days' prior written notice to Landlord, if such audit reveals any
environmental contamination in the leased premises; provided, however, that if
Tenant terminates the lease pursuant to this provision, then (i) Tenant shall,
at Landlord's request, restore the leased premises to the condition existing at
the time of delivery of said premises to Landlord, and (ii) Tenant shall provide
Landlord with a copy of such environmental audit.

RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL:  If Landlord intends to lease Bay 8 (outlined in green
upon Exhibit "A" attached to this lease) to another lessee during the term of
this lease, Tenant shall have the right to lease said Bay 8 from Landlord
subject to the following terms and conditions:

     (a)  Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice of Landlord's intent
          to lease Bay 8 to a third-party ("Prospect"), and Tenant shall have
          two business days to exercise its rights to lease Bay 8 by written
          notice to Landlord.  If Tenant fails to deliver written notice of
          Tenant's exercise of its right to lease within said two business days,
          then Landlord shall have the right to lease Bay 8 to said Prospect,
          without any further consent or act by Tenant.

                                        3

<PAGE>


     (b)  If Tenant exercises its right to lease the Bay 8 as aforesaid, Tenant
          shall lease the Bay 8 from Landlord upon the same terms and conditions
          as were offered to the Prospect, and said lease shall commence no
          later than thirty (30) days after Tenant's written notice to Landlord
          exercising Tenant's right to lease.

     (c)  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Landlord leases
          Bay 8 to a Prospect pursuant to this Paragraph, Landlord shall have
          the right to renew or extend Landlord's lease to said Prospect or that
          Prospect's assignee or sublessee without first offering Bay 8 to
          Tenant.

RENEWAL OPTION:  Tenant shall have the option to renew the term of this lease
for one (1) period of three (3) years upon the same terms and conditions as are
provided herein except that the fixed minimum rent during said renewal term
shall be determined in the manner hereinafter provided, and there shall be no
further options to renew.

The said option shall be exercised by Tenant giving notice by certified mail to
Landlord, return receipt requested, at least one hundred eighty (180) days
before the expiration of the then existing term and not more than 365 days
before the expiration of the then existing term.  It shall be a condition of the
exercise of the foregoing option that at the time of the exercise of said
option, Tenant shall not be in default hereunder.

Within thirty (30) days after the receipt by Landlord of Tenant's exercise of
the option herein granted, the Landlord and Tenant shall commence negotiations
with regard to the fixed minimum rent to be paid by Tenant to Landlord during
the option term.  Provided, however, that in the event that Landlord and Tenant
are unable to agree on said fixed minimum rent within ninety (90) days from the
date of exercise of the option, then it shall be deemed that Tenant did not
exercise its option and the lease will terminate at the end of the then existing
term.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant's option to renew this lease may be
terminated by Landlord at any time after receipt of notice of Tenant's exercise
of the option, by notice from Landlord that it is Landlord's intention to no
longer continue to operate the shopping center as a retail shopping center.
Landlord's notice to Tenant must be given to Tenant by certified mail, return
receipt requested, not less than ninety (90) days prior to the end of the then
existing term of this lease.

                                   EXPLANATION

1.   It is intended that the signing of the stores at the Northridge Shopping
     Center shall be developed in an imaginative and varied manner.  This
     criteria shall govern for all Tenant signing at Northridge.

2.   Although previous and current signing practices of the Tenant will be
     considered, they will not govern signs to be installed at Northridge.

3.   Approval of store design drawings or working drawings and specifications
     for Tenant's leased premises does not constitute approval of any sign work.
     Landlord's written approval of Tenant's sign drawing and specifications is
     required.

4.   The furnishing and installation of a sign and the costs incurred shall be
     the responsibility of the Tenant. Sign construction is to be completed in
     compliance with the instructions contained within this criteria.

5.   Each Tenant will be required to identify its premises by a sign.
