         WHEREAS by written Sublease dated August 1, 2002 between the
Sublandlord, the Tenant and the Landlord, the Tenant subleased space on the
ground floor of a building located at 7 Capella Court, Nepean, Ontario ("the
Building").

         AND WHEREAS the Tenant and the Sublandlord have agreed to amend the
Sublease so as to sublet to the Tenant an additional portion of the Building
located on the ground floor as shown on the floor plan attached hereto and
marked as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference (the "Additional Leased
Premises").

         AND WHEREAS the Landlord has agreed to amend the Sublease to include
the Additional Leased Premises upon the following terms and conditions.

         NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the rents, covenants and conditions
herein reserved and contained, the parties agree as follows:

1.       Except for the amendments expressly set out herein, the Parties confirm
         that all other terms and conditions contained in the Sublease remain in
         full force and effect. More specifically, if the Sublease is not
         renewed pursuant to its terms, the Tenant shall vacate the Leased
         premises and the Additional Leased Premises by August 31, 2003.

2.       The Gross Rent payable by the Tenant specified in the Sublease will be
         increased by $2,500.00 per month, plus GST, as payment for the Tenant's
         possession and occupation of the Additional Leased Premises identified
         on the floor plan in Exhibit A. If the Sublease is renewed on the basis
         of either Option One or Option Two, the portion of monthly Gross Rent
         attributed as payment for the occupation and possession of the
         Additional Leased Premises ($2,500.00) shall also be increased by the
         same percentage as the Gross Rent for the Leased Premises will be
         increased for the duration of any such renewal term. Terms of payment
         shall remain the same as specified in the Sublease with the first
         payment on account of the Additional Leased Premises due on November 1,
         2002. Upon signing of this agreement, Tenant shall advance three (3)
         months rent ($7,500.00 plus GST) to be applied to the months of
         November 2002, December 2002 and August 2003.

3.       The Tenant may enter into possession of the Additional Leased Premises
         on October 1, 2002. The Additional Leased Premises are sublet in an "as
         is" condition with no requirement for any additional fit up,
         alterations, provision of furniture or equipment, or leasehold
         improvements.

4.       The Tenant further covenants and agrees with the Sublandlord and the
         Landlord:

a)       For the duration of the Sublease, that it shall provide reasonable
         access and egress to and from the Building by way of the Loading Bay
         and ramp located in the Additional Leased Premises for the benefit of
         all existing tenants and for the benefit of all future tenants in the
         Building. Access shall be granted by the Tenant promptly upon receipt
         of reasonable written or oral notice that the Loading Bay and ramp are
         required. Requests for access shall, so far as possible, attempt to
         minimize disruption to the Tenant's use and enjoyment of the Additional
         Leased Premises.

5.       GROSS RENT:
         For greater certainty, Tenant shall pay directly to the Landlord all
         gross rents, prepayments and deposits, to be applied to the
         Sublandlord's rental account, as Gross Rent for the Leased Premises and
         payable in equal monthly installments in advance on the first day of
         each calendar month during the Term of the Sublease.

         Agreement, under seal, as of the date written above.
