give prompt notice of any defective condition in the premises for which Owner
may be responsible hereunder. There shall be no allowance to Tenant for
diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Owner by reason of
inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Owner or others
making repairs, alterations, additions or improvements in or to any portion of

equipment thereof. It is specifically agreed that Tenant shall not be entitled
to any setoff or reduction of rent by reason of any failure of Owner to comply
with the covenants of this or any other article of this Lease. Tenant agrees

<PAGE>

other applicable law or of the Rules of the Board of Standards and Appeals, or
of any other Board or body having or asserting jurisdiction.

Requirements of Law, Fire Insurance, Floor Loads: 6. Prior to the
commencement of the lease term, if Tenant is then in possession, and at all
times thereafter, Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall promptly
comply with all present and future laws, orders and regulations of all state,
federal, municipal and local governments, departments, commissions and boards
and any direction of any public officer pursuant to law, and all orders,
rules and regulations of the New York Board of Fire Underwriters, Insurance
Services Office, or any similar body which shall impose any violation, order
or duty upon Owner or Tenant with respect to the demised premises (1) arising
out of Tenant's use or manner of use thereof (including Tenant's permitted
use) or, with respect to the building if arising out of Tenant's use or
manner of use of the premises or the building (including the use permitted on
the lease). Nothing herein shall require Tenant to make structural repairs or
alterations unless Tenant has, by its manner of use of the demised premises
or method of operation therein, violated any such laws, ordinances, orders,
rules, regulations or requirements with respect thereto. Tenant many, after
securing Owner to Owner's satisfaction against all damages, interest,
penalties and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney's
fees, by cash deposit or by surety bond in an amount and in a company
satisfactory to Owner, contest and appeal any such laws, ordinances, orders,
rules, regulations or requirements provided same is done with all reasonable
promptness and provided such appeal shall not subject Owner to prosecution
for a criminal offense or constitute a default under any lease or mortgage
under which Owner may be obligated, or cause the demised premises or any part
thereof to be condemned or vacated. Tenant shall not do or permit any act or
thing to be done on or to the demised premises which is contrary to law, or
which will invalidate or be in conflict with public liability, fire or other
policies of insurance at any time carried by or for the benefit of Owner with
respect to the demised premises or the building of which the demised premises
form a part, or which shall or might subject Owner to any liability or
responsibility to any person or for property damage. Tenant shall not keep
anything in the demised premises except as now or hereafter permitted by the
Fire Department, Board of Fire Underwriters, Fire Insurance Rating
Organization or other authority having jurisdiction, and then only in such
manner and such quantity so as not to increase the rate for fire insurance
applicable to the building, nor use the premises in a manner which will
increase the insurance rate for the building or any property located therein
over that in effect prior to the commencement of Tenant's occupancy. Tenant
shall pay all costs, expenses, fines, penalties, or damages, which may be
imposed upon Owner by reason of Tenant's failure to comply with the
provisions of this article and if by reason of such failure the fire
insurance rate shall, at the beginning of this lease or at any time
thereafter, be higher than it otherwise would be, then Tenant shall reimburse
Owner, as additional rent hereunder, for that portion of all fire insurance
premiums thereafter paid by Owner which shall have been charged because of
such failure by Tenant. In any action or proceeding wherein Owner and Tenant
are parties, a schedule or "make-up" of rate for the building or demised
premises issued by the New York Fire Insurance Exchange, or other body making
fire insurance rates applicable to said premises shall be conclusive evidence
of the facts therein stated and of the several items and charges in the fire
insurance rates then applicable to said premises. Tenant shall not place a
load upon any floor of the demised premises exceeding the floor load per
square foot area which it was designed to carry and which is allowed by law.
Owner reserves the right to prescribe the weight and position of all safes,
business machines and mechanical equipment.


                                       3
<PAGE>

Such installations shall be placed and maintained by Tenant, at Tenant's
expense, in settings sufficient, in Owner's judgement, to absorb and prevent
vibration, noise and annoyance.

Subordination: 7. This lease is subject and subordinate to all ground or
underlying leases and to all mortgages which may now or hereafter affect leases
or the real property of which demised premises are a part and to all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of any such
underlying leases and mortgages. This clause shall be self-operative and no
further instrument of subordination shall be required by any ground or
underlying lessor or by any mortgagee, affecting any lease of the real property
of which the demised premises are a part. In confirmation of such subordination,
Tenant shall from time to time execute promptly any certificate that Owner may
request.

Property Loss, Damage Reimbursement Indemnity: 8. Owner or its agents shall not
be liable for any damage to property of Tenant or of others entrusted to
employees of the building, nor for loss of or damage to any property of Tenant
by theft or otherwise, nor for any injury or damage to persons or property
resulting from any cause of whatsoever nature, unless caused by or due to the
negligence of Owner, its agents, servants or employees. Owner or its agents will
not be liable for any such damage caused by other tenants or persons in, upon or
about said building or caused by operations in construction of any private,
public or quasi public work. If at any time any windows of the demised premises
are temporarily closed, darkened or bricked up (permanently closed, darkened or
bricked up, if required by law) for any reason whatsoever including, but not
limited to Owner's own acts; Owner shall not be liable for any damage Tenant may
sustain thereby and Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation therefor
nor abatement or diminution of rent nor shall the same release Tenant from its
obligations hereunder nor constitute an eviction. Tenant shall indemnify and
save harmless Owner against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages,
penalties, claims, costs and expenses for which Owner shall not be reimbursed by
insurance, including reasonable attorneys fees, paid, suffered or incurred as a
result of any breach by Tenant, Tenant's agents, contractors, employees,
invitees, or licensees, of any covenant or condition of this lease, of the
carelessness, negligence or improper conduct of the Tenant, Tenant's agents,
contractors, employees, invitees or licensees. Tenant's liability under this
lease extends to the acts and omissions of any sub-tenant, and any agent,
contractor, employee, invitee or licensee of any sub-tenant. In case any action
or proceeding is brought against Owner by reason of such claim, Tenant, upon
written notice from Owner, will at Tenant's expense, resist or defend such
action or proceeding by counsel approved by Owner in writing, such approval not
to be unreasonably withheld. (b)

Destruction by Fire and Other Casualty: 9. (a) If the demised premises or any
part thereof shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give
immediate notice thereof to Owner and this lease shall continue in full force
and effect except as hereinafter set forth. (b) If the demised premises are
partially damaged or rendered partially unusable by fire or other casualty, the
damages thereto shall be repaired by and at the expense of Owner and the rent
and other items of additional rent, until such repair shall be substantially
completed, shall be apportioned from the day following the casualty according to
the part of the premises which is usable. (c) If the demised premises are
totally damaged or rendered wholly unusable by fire or other casualty, then the
rent and other items of additional rent as hereinafter expressly provided shall
be proportionately paid up to the time of the casualty and thenceforth shall
cease until the date when the premises shall have been repaired and restored by
Owner (or sooner reoccupied in part by


                                       4
<PAGE>

Tenant then rent shall be apportioned as provided in subsection (b) above),
subject to Owner's right to elect not to restore the same as hereinafter
provided. (d) If the demised premises are rendered wholly unusable or
(whether or not the demised premises are damaged in whole or in part) if the
building shall be so damaged that Owner shall decide to demolish it or to
rebuilt it, then, in any of such events, Owner may elect to terminate this
lease by written notice to Tenant, given within 90 days after such fire or
casualty, or 30 days after adjustment of the insurance claim for such fire or
casualty, whichever is sooner, specifying a date for the expiration of the
lese, which date shall not be more than 60 days after the giving of such
notice, and upon the date specified in such notice the term of this lease
shall expire as fully and completely as if such date were the date set forth
above for the termination of this lease and Tenant shall forthwith quit,
surrender and vacate the premises without prejudice, however, to Landlord's
rights and remedies against Tenant under the lease provisions in effect prior
to such termination, and any rent owing shall be paid up to such date and any
payments of rent made by Tenant which were on account of any period
subsequent to such date shall be returned to Tenant. Unless Owner shall serve
a termination notice as provided for herein, Owner shall make the repairs and
restorations under the conditions of (b) and (c) hereof, with all reasonable
expedition, subject to delays due to adjustment of insurance claims, labor
troubles and causes beyond Owner's control. After any such casualty, Tenant
shall cooperate with Owner's restoration by removing from the premises as
promptly as reasonably possible, all of Tenant's salvageable inventory and
moveable equipment, furniture, and other property. Tenant's liability for
rent shall resume five (5) days after written notice from Owner that the
premises are substantially ready for Tenant's occupancy. (e) Nothing
contained hereinabove shall relieve Tenant from liability that may exist as a
result of damage from fire or other casualty. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
including Owner's obligation to restore under subparagraph (b) above, each
party shall look first to any insurance in its favor before making any claim
against the other party for recovery for loss or damage resulting from fire
or other casualty, and to the extent that such insurance is in force and
collectible and to the extent permitted by law, Owner and Tenant each hereby
releases and waives all right of recovery with respect to subparagraphs (b),
(d), and (e) above, against the other or any one claiming through or under
each of them by way of subrogation or otherwise. The release and waiver
herein referred to shall be deemed to include any loss or damage to the
demised premises and/or to any personal property, equipment, trade fixtures,
goods and merchandise located therein. The foregoing release and waiver shall
be in force only if both releasors' insurance policies contain a clause
providing that such a release or waiver shall not invalidate the insurance.
If, and to the extent, that such waiver can be obtained only by the payment
of additional premiums, then the party benefiting from the waiver shall pay
such premium within ten days after written demand or shall be deemed to have
agreed that the party obtaining insurance coverage shall be free of any
further obligation under the provisions hereof with respect to waiver of
subrogation. Tenant acknowledges that Owner will not carry insurance on
Tenant's furniture and/or furnishings or any fixtures or equipment,
improvements, or appurtenances removable by Tenant and agrees that Owner will
not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the same. (f) Tenant
hereby waives the provisions of Section 227 of the Real Property Law and
agrees that the provisions of this article shall govern and control in lieu
thereof. (j)

Electric Current: 12. Rates and conditions in respect to submetering or rent
inclusion, as the case may be, to be added in RIDER attached hereto. Tenant
covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric current shall not
exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the building or


                                       5
<PAGE>

the risers or wiring installation and Tenant may not use any electrical
equipment which, in Owner's opinion, reasonably exercised, will overload such
installations or interfere with the use thereof by other tenants in the
building. The change at any time of the character of electric service shall in
no wise make Owner liable or responsible to Tenant, for any loss, damages or
expenses which Tenant may sustain.

Access to Premises: 13. Owner or Owner's agents shall have right (but shall not
be obligated) to enter the demised premises in any emergency at any time, and,
at other reasonable times, to examine the same and to make such repairs,
replacements and improvements as Owner may deem necessary and reasonably
desirable to the demised premises or to any other portion of the building or
which Owner may elect to perform. Tenant shall permit Owner to use and maintain
and replace pipes and conduits in and through the demised premises and to erect
new pipes and conduits therein provided they are concealed within the walls,
floor, or ceiling. Owner may, during the progress of any work in the demised
premises, take all necessary materials and equipment into said premises without
the same constituting an eviction nor shall the Tenant be entitled to any
abatement of rent while such work is in progress nor to any damages by reason of
loss or interruption of business or otherwise. Throughout the term hereof Owner
shall have the right to enter the demised premises at reasonable hours for the
purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers or mortgagees of the
building, and during the last six months of the term for the purpose of showing
the same to prospective tenants. If Tenant is not present to open and permit an
entry into the demised premises, Owner or Owner's agents may enter the same
whenever such entry may be necessary or permissible by master key or forcibly
and provided reasonable care is exercised to safeguard Tenant's property, such
entry shall not render Owner or its agents liable therefor, nor in any event
shall the obligations of Tenant hereunder be affected. If during the last month
of the term Tenant shall have removed all or substantially all of Tenant's
property therefrom Owner may immediately enter, alter, renovate or redecorate
the demised premises without limitation or abatement of rent, or incurring
liability to Tenant for any compensation and such act shall have no effect on
this lease or Tenant's obligations hereunder.

Vault, Vault Space, Area: 14. No Vaults, vault space or area, whether or not
enclosed or covered, not within the property line of the building is leased
hereunder, anything contained in or indicated on any sketch, blue print or plan,
or anything contained elsewhere in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding.
Owner makes no representation as to the location of the property line of the
building. All vaults and vault space and all such areas not within the property
line of the building, which Tenant may be permitted to use and/or occupy, is to
be used and/or occupied under a revocable license, and if any such license be
revoked, or if the amount of such space or area be diminished or required by any
federal, state or municipal authority or public utility, Owner shall not be
subject to any liability nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or
diminution or abatement of rent, nor shall such revocation, diminution or
requisition be deemed constructive or actual eviction. Any tax, fee or charge of
municipal authorities for such vault or area shall be paid by Tenant.

Occupancy: 15. Tenant will not at any time use or occupy the demised premises in
violation of the certificate of occupancy issued for the building of which the
demised premises are a part. Tenant has inspected the premises and accepts them
as is, subject to the riders annexed hereto


                                       6
<PAGE>

with respect to Owner' work, if any. In any event, Owner makes no representation
as to the condition of the premises and Tenant agrees to accept the same subject
to violations, whether or not of record.

Bankruptcy: 16. (a) Anything elsewhere in this lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, this lease may be cancelled by Owner by the sending of a
written notice to Tenant within a reasonable time after the happening of any one
or more of the following events: (1) the commencement of a case in bankruptcy or
under the laws of any state naming Tenant as the debtor; or (2) the making by
Tenant of an assignment or any other arrangement for the benefit of creditors
under any state statute. Neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under
Tenant, or by reason of any statute or order of court, shall thereafter be
entitled to possession of the premises demised but shall forthwith quit and
surrender the premises. If this lease shall be assigned in accordance with its
terms, the provisions of this Article 16 shall be assigned in accordance with
its terms, the provisions of this Article 16 shall be applicable only to the
party then owning Tenant's interest in this lease.

(b) it is stipulated and agreed that in the event of the termination of this
lease pursuant to (a) hereof, Owner shall forthwith, notwithstanding any
other provisions of this lease to the contrary, be entitled to recover from
Tenant as and for liquidated damages an amount equal to the difference
between the rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of the term
demised and the fair and reasonable rental value of the demised premises for
the same period. In the computation of such damages the difference between
any installment of rent becoming due hereunder after the date of termination
and the fair and reasonable rental value of the demised premises for the
period for which such installment was payable shall be discounted to the date
of termination at the rate of four percent (4%) per annum. If such premises
or any part thereof be re-let by the Owner for the unexpired term of said
lease, or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such liquidated
damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved
upon such re-letting shall be deemed to be the fair and reasonable rental
value for the part or the whole of the premises so re-let during the term of
the re-letting. Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right
of the Owner to prove for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such
termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of
law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such
damages are to be proven, whether or not such amount be greater, equal to, or
less than the amount of the difference referred to above.

Default: 17. (1) If Tenant defaults in fulfilling any of the covenants of this
lease other than the covenants for the payment of rent or additional rent; or if
the demised premises become vacant or deserted; or if any execution or
attachment shall be issued against Tenant or any of Tenant's property whereupon
the demised premises shall be taken or occupied by someone other than Tenant; or
if this lease be rejected under ss.235 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code (bankruptcy
code); or if Tenant shall fail to move into or take possession of the premises
within thirty (30) days after the commencement of the term of this lease, then,
in any one or more of such events, upon Owner serving a written fifteen (15)
days notice upon Tenant specifying the nature of said default and upon the
expiration of said (15) days, if Tenant shall have failed to comply with or
remedy such default, or if the said default or omission complained of shall be
of a nature that the same cannot be completely cured or remedied within said
fifteen (15) day period, and if Tenant shall not have diligently commenced
curing such default within such fifteen (15) day period, and shall not
thereafter with reasonable diligence and in good faith, proceed to remedy or
cure such default, then Owner may serve a written five (5) days' notice of
cancellation of this lease upon Tenant, and upon the expiration of said five (5)
days this lease and the term thereunder shall end and expire as fully and
completely as if the expiration of such five (5) period were the day herein
definitely fixed for the end and expiration of this lease and the term thereof
and Tenant shall then quit and surrender the demised premises to Owner but
Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.

(2) If the notice provided for in (1) hereof shall have been given, and the term
shall expire as aforesaid; or if Tenant shall make default in the payment of the
rent reserved herein or any item of additional rent herein mentioned or any part
of either or in making any other payment herein required; then and in any of
such events Owner may without notice, re-enter the demised premises either by
force or otherwise, and dispossess Tenant by summary proceedings or otherwise,
and the legal representative of Tenant or other occupant of demised premises and
remove their effects and hold the premises as if this lease had not been made,
and Tenant hereby waives the service of notice of intention to re-enter or to
institute legal proceedings to that end. If Tenant shall make default hereunder
prior to the date fixed as the commencement of any renewal or extension of this
lease, Owner may cancel and terminate such renewal or extension agreement by
written notice.

Remedies of Owner and Waiver of Redemption: 18. In case of any such default,
re-entry, expiration and/or dispossess by summary proceedings or otherwise, (a)
the rent shall become due thereupon and be paid up to the time of such re-entry,
dispossess and/or expiration, (b) Owner may re-let the premises or any part or
parts thereof, either in the name of Owner or otherwise, for a term or terms,
which may at Owner's option be less than or exceed the period which would
otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this lease and may grant
concessions of free rent or charge a higher rental than that in this lease,
and/or (c) Tenant or the representatives of Tenant shall also pay Owner as
liquidated damages for the failure of Tenant to observe and perform said
Tenant's covenants herein contained, any deficiency between the rent hereby
reserved and/or covenanted to be paid and the net amount, if any, of the rents
collected on account of the lease or leases of the demised premises for each
month of the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the
term of this lease. The failure of Owner to re-let the premises or any part or
parts thereof shall not release or affect Tenant's liability for damages. In
computing such liquidated damages there shall be added to the said deficiency
such expenses as Owner may incur in connection with re-letting, such as legal
expenses, reasonable attorneys' fees, brokerage, advertising and for keeping the
demised premises in good order or preparing the same for re-letting. Any such
liquidated damages shall be paid in monthly installments by Tenant on the rent
day specified in this lease and any suit brought to collect the amount of the
deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of Owner to
collect the deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar proceedings. Owner,
in putting the demised premises in good order or preparing the same for
re-rental may, at Owner's option, make such alterations, repairs, replacements,
and/or decorations in the demised premises as Owner, in Owner's sole judgement,
considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of re-letting the demised
premises, and the making of such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or
decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability
hereunder as aforesaid. Owner shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever
for failure to re-let the demised premises, or in the event that the demised
premises are re-let, for failure to collect the rent thereof under such
re-letting, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess, if
any, of such net rents collected over the sums payable by Tenant to Owner
hereunder. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the
covenants or provisions hereof, Owner shall have the right of injunction and the
right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if re-entry, summary
proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided for. Mention in this
lease of any particular remedy, shall not preclude Owner from any other remedy,
in law or in equity. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of
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 Owner obtaining
possession of demised premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of
the covenants and conditions of this lease, or otherwise.

Fees and Expenses: 19. If Tenant shall default in the observance or performance
of any term or covenant on Tenant's part to be observed or performed under or by
virtue of any of the terms or provisions in any article of this lease, after
notice if required and upon expiration of any applicable grace period if any,
(except in an emergency), then, unless otherwise provided elsewhere in this
lease, Owner may immediately (c) perform the obligation of Tenant thereunder. If
Owner, in connection with the foregoing or in connection with any default by
Tenant in the covenant to pay rent hereunder, makes any expenditures or incurs
any obligations for the payment of money, including but not limited to
reasonable attorneys' fees, in instituting, prosecuting or defending any action
or proceeding, and prevails in any such action or proceeding


                                       8
<PAGE>

then Tenant will reimburse Owner for such sums so paid or obligations incurred
with interest and costs. The foregoing expenses incurred by reason of Tenant's
default shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and shall be paid by
Tenant to Owner within ten (10) days of rendition of any bill or statement to
Tenant therefor. If Tenant's lease term shall have expired at the time of making
of such expenditures or incurring of such obligations, such sums shall be
recoverable by Owner, as damages.

Building Alterations and Management: 20. Owner shall have the right at any time
without the same constituting an eviction and without incurring liability to
Tenant therefor to change the arrangement and/or location of public entrances,
passageways, doors, doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other
public parts of the building and to change the name, number or designation by
which the building may be known. There shall be no allowance to Tenant for
diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Owner by reason of
inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Owner or other
Tenants making any repairs in the building or any such alterations, additions
and improvements. (k) Furthermore, Tenant shall not have any claim against Owner
by reason of Owner's imposition of such controls of the manner of access to the
building by Tenant's social or business visitors as the Owner may deem necessary
for the security of the building and its occupants.

No Representations by Owner: 21. Neither Owner nor Owner's agents have made any
representations or promises with respect to the physical condition of the
building, the land upon which it is erected or the demised premises, the rents,
leases, expenses of operation or any other matter or thing affecting or relating
to the premises except as herein expressly set forth and no rights, easements or
licenses are acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise except as expressly
set forth in the provisions of this lease. Tenant has inspected the building and
the demised premises and is thoroughly acquainted with their condition and
agrees to take the same "as is" and acknowledges that the taking or possession
of the demised premises by Tenant shall be conclusive evidence that the said
premises and the building of which the same form a part were in good and
satisfactory condition at the time such possession was so taken, except as to
latent defects. All understandings and agreements heretofore made between the
parties hereto are merged in this contract, which alone fully and completely
expresses the agreement between Owner and Tenant and any executory agreement
hereafter shall be ineffective to change, modify, discharge or effect an
abandonment of it in whole or in part, unless such executory agreement is in
writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change,
modification, discharge or abandonment is sought.

End of Term: 22. Upon the expiration or termination of the term of this lease,
Tenant shall quit and surrender to Owner the demised premises, broom clean, in
good order and condition, ordinary wear (d) and damages which Tenant is not
required to repair as provided elsewhere in this lease excepted, and Tenant
shall remove all its property. Tenant's obligation to observe or perform this
covenant shall survive the expiration or other termination of this lease. If the
last day of the term of this Lease or any renewal thereof, falls on Sunday, this
lease shall expire at noon on the preceding Saturday unless it be a legal
holiday in which case it shall expire at noon the preceding business day.

Quiet Enjoyment: 23. Owner covenants and agrees with Tenant that upon Tenant
paying the rent and additional rent and observing and performing all the terms,
covenants and conditions, on


                                       9
<PAGE>

Tenant's part to be observed and performed, Tenant may peaceably and quietly
enjoy the premises hereby demised, subject, nevertheless, to the terms and
conditions of this lease including, but not limited to, Article 31 hereof and to
the ground leases, underlying leases and mortgages hereinbefore mentioned.

Failure to Give: 24. If Owner is unable to give possession of the demised
premises on the date of the commencement of the term hereof, because of the
holding-over or retention of possession of any tenant, undertenant or occupants
or if the demised premises are located in a building being constructed, because
such building has not been sufficiently completed to made the premises ready for
occupancy or because of the fact that a certificate of occupancy ha not been
procured or for any other reason, Owner shall not be subject to any liability
for failure to give possession on said date and the validity of the lease shall
not be impaired under such circumstances, nor shall the same be construed in any
wise to extend the term of this lease, but the rent payable hereunder shall be
abated (provided Tenant is not responsible for Owner's inability to obtain
possession or complete construction) until after Owner shall have given Tenant
written notice that the Owner is able to deliver possession in condition
required by this lease. If permission is given to Tenant to enter into the
possession of the demised premises or to occupy premises other than the demised
prior to the date specified as the commencement of the term of this lease,
Tenant covenants and agrees that such possession and/or occupancy shall be
deemed to be under all the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this
lease except the obligation to pay the fixed annual rent set forth in the
preamble to this lease. The provisions of this article are intended to
constitute "an express provision to the contrary" within the meaning of Section
223-a of the New York Real Property Law.

No Waiver: 25. The failure of Owner to seek redress for violation of, or to
insist upon the strict performance of any covenant or condition of this lease or
of any of the Rules or Regulations, set forth or hereafter adopted by Owner,
shall not prevent a subsequent act which would have originally constituted a
violation from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The
receipt by Owner of rent and/or additional rent with knowledge of the breach of
any covenant of this lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach and no
provision of this lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Owner unless such
waiver be in writing signed by Owner. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Owner
of a lesser amount than the monthly rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be
other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement
or statement of any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as
rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Owner may accept such check or
payment without prejudice to Owner's right to recover the balance of such rent
or pursue any other remedy in this lease provided. No act or thing done by Owner
or Owner's agents during the term hereby demised shall be deemed an acceptance
of a surrender of said premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall
be valid unless in writing signed by Owner. No employee of Owner of Owner's
agent shall have any power to accept the keys of said premises prior to the
termination of the lease and the delivery of keys to any such agent or employees
shall not operate as a termination of the lease or a surrender of the premises.

Waiver of Trial by Jury: 26. It is mutually agreed by and between Owner and
Tenant that the respective parties hereto shall and they hereby do waive trial
by jury in any action proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the
parties hereto against the other (except for personal injury or property damage)
on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this


                                       10
<PAGE>

lease, the relationship of Owner and Tenant, Tenant's use of or occupancy of
said premises, and any emergency statutory or any other statutory remedy. It is
further mutually agreed that in the event Owner commences any proceeding or
action for possession including a summary proceeding for possession of the
premises, Tenant will not interpose any counterclaim of whatever nature or
description in any such proceeding including a counterclaim under Article 4
except for statutory mandatory counterclaim. (e)

Inability to Perform: 27. This Lease and the obligation of Tenant to pay rent
hereunder and perform all of the other covenants and agreements hereunder on
part of Tenant to be performed shall in no wise be affected, impaired or excused
because Owner is unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this lease or to
supply or is delayed in supplying any service expressly or impliedly to be
supplied or is unable to make, or is delayed in making any repair, additions,
alterations or decorations or is unable to supply or is delayed in supplying any
equipment, fixtures, or other materials if Owner is prevented or delayed from so
doing by reason of strike or labor troubles or any cause whatsoever (f)
including, but not limited to, government preemption or restrictions or by
reason of rule, order or regulation of any department or subdivision thereof of
any government agency or by reason of the conditions which have been or are
affected, either directly or indirectly, by war or other emergency.

Bills and Notices: 28. (g) Except as otherwise in this lease provided, a bill,
statement, notice or communication which Owner may desire or be required to give
to Tenant, shall be deemed sufficiently given or rendered if, in writing,
delivered to Tenant personally or sent by registered or certified mail addressed
to Tenant at the building of which the demised premises form a part or at the
last known residence address or business address of Tenant or left at any of the
aforesaid premises addressed to Tenant and the time of the rendition of such
bill or statement and of the giving of such notice or communication shall be
deemed to be the time when the same is delivered to Tenant, mailed, or left at
the premises as herein provided. Any notice by Tenant to Owner must be served by
registered or certified mail addressed to Owner at the address first hereinabove
given or at such other address as Owner shall designate by written notice.

Services Provided by Owners: 29. As long as Tenant is not in default under any
of the covenants of this lease beyond the applicable grace period provided in
this lease for the curing of such defaults, Owner shall provide: (a) necessary
elevator facilities on business days from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and have one elevator
subject to call at all other times; (b) heat to the demised premises when and as
required by law, on business days from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.; (c) water for ordinary

maintain at Tenant's expense in good working order and repair to register such
water consumption and Tenant shall pay for water consumed as shown on said meter
as additional rent as and when bills are rendered; (d) cleaning service for the
demised premises on business days at Owner's expense provided that the same are
kept in order by Tenant. If, however, said premises are to be kept clean by

satisfactory to Owner and no one other than persons approved by Owner shall be
permitted to enter said premises or the building of which they are a part for
such purpose. Tenant shall pay Owner the cost of removal of any of Tenant's
refuge and rubbish from the building; (e) If the demised premises are serviced

holidays excepted) from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and ventilation will be
furnished on business days during the aforesaid hours except when air
conditioning/cooling is being furnished as aforesaid. If Tenant requires air

Owner reserves the right to stop services of the heating, elevators, plumbing,
air-conditioning, electric, power systems or cleaning or other services, if any,
when necessary by reason of accident or for repairs, alterations, replacements
or improvements necessary or desirable in the judgment of Owner for as long as
may be reasonably required by reason thereof. If the building of which the
demised premises are a part supplies manually operated elevator service, Owner
at any time may substitute automatic control elevator service and proceed
diligently with alterations necessary therefor without in any wise affecting
this lease or the obligation of Tenant hereunder.

hereunder, and it shall be deemed and construed without further agreement
between the parties or their successors in interest, or between the parties

Regulation for decision to the New York office of the American Arbitration
