                                         -----------
incorporated herein by reference (hereinafter called the "Subleased Premises").

     3.   Term.
          ----

          3.1  Term. The term of this Sublease shall commence on the date (the
               ----
"Commencement Date") which is the later of: (i) September 15, 1999, or (ii) upon
receipt of a written Consent to Sublease from Prime Lessor as detailed in
Section 3.2 below. The term of this Sublease shall end at midnight on December
30, 2000 (the "Term"), unless sooner terminated pursuant to any provision
hereof.

          3.2  Improvements to Subleased Premises Prior to Commencement Date.
               -------------------------------------------------------------
Sublessee shall be permitted access to the Subleased Premises only after the
Prime Lessor (hereinafter defined) has executed and delivered to Sublessor and
Sublessee the Prime Lessor's Consent to Sublease form attached hereto as Exhibit
                                                                         -------
"C". In addition to the foregoing, Sublessor shall not be subject to any
---
liability to Sublessee in the event Sublessor is unable to obtain the Prime
Lessor's consent to this Sublease. If Sublessee occupies all or any portion of
the Subleased Premises for purposes of making improvements to the Subleased
Premises or otherwise prior to the Commencement Date or prior to Prime Lessor
executing and delivering to Sublessor and Sublessee the Prime Lessor's Consent
to Sublease form attached hereto as Exhibit "C", such occupancy by Sublessee
                                    -----------
shall be subject to all provisions of this Sublease, and such occupancy shall
not advance the termination date, and Sublessee shall have no obligation to pay
Base Rental for such period prior to the Commencement Date.

     4.   Rental.
          ------

          4.1  Base Rent. From and after the Commencement Date Sublessee shall
               ---------
pay to Sublessor annual rent for the Subleased Premises during the Term in the
amount of TWO HUNDRED FORTY FOUR THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED AND NO/100 ($244,800.00)
          ----------------------------------------------------------------------
DOLLARS, said annual rent to be paid in equal monthly installments in the amount
-------
of TWENTY THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED AND 00/100 ($20,400.00) DOLLARS (the foregoing
   ------ -----------------------------------------------------
being hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Base Rental"). The monthly Base
Rental shall be paid by Sublessee, together with Costs (as hereinafter defined),
in advance on the first day of each month, as an independent covenant to pay
rent, without advanced notice, demand, offset, abatement or deduction of any
kind. If the Term does not begin on the first day or end on the last day of a
calendar month, the Base Rental and Costs for that partial month shall be
prorated by multiplying the monthly Base Rental and Costs by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of days of the partial month included in the
Term and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the full
calendar month. All Rental (hereinafter defined) shall be payable in lawful
money of the United States to Sublessor at the office of Sublessor as follows:
Sterling Software (Western), Inc., 5800 Tennyson Parkway, Plano, Texas 75024,
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Attention: Director of Facilities, or to such other persons or at such other
---------------------------------
places as Sublessor may designate in writing from time to time. The sum of
                                                                ----------
Twenty Thousand Four Hundred and no/100 Dollars ($20,400.00) is due and shall be
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
paid in advance by Sublessee to Sublessor upon the execution of this Sublease,
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
which amount shall be applied to the Base Rental payment due on November 1,
1999. On before September 15, 1999, Sublessee shall pay Sublessor the sum of Ten
Thousand Eight Hundred Eighty and No/100
<PAGE>

Dollars ($10,880.00) as pro rata Base Rental for the period from September 15,
1999 through September 30, 1999. Sublessee's obligation to pay Base Rental and
Costs in accordance with the Sublease shall begin on the Commencement Date
regardless of whether (i) the move-in of Sublessee's furniture, fixtures,
machinery, equipment and personal property and construction of the Sublessee's
improvements is complete and/or (ii) Sublessee has actually occupied the
Subleased Premises at such time. For purposes of this Sublease, the term
"Rental" shall mean, collectively, Base Rental, Costs and all other sums payable
by Sublessee to Sublessor under this Sublease, all of which are hereby deemed
and designated as rent pursuant to the terms of this Sublease.

          4.2.  Costs. In addition to the Base Rental, Sublessee agrees to pay
                -----
Sublessor all Costs (as defined in the Prime Lease; hereinafter referred to as
"Costs") due under the Prime Lease on or before the dates when due under the
terms of the Prime Lease. Sublessor agrees to deliver to Sublessee copies of all
notice and statements received by Sublessor from Prime Lessor with respect to
the billing of such Costs. Additionally, Sublessee shall be solely responsible
for all telephone and utility costs for the Premises which are not included in
the Costs under the Prime Lease. All Costs (as defined in the Prime Lease),
telephone and utility costs which Sublessee is required to pay hereunder are
additional rentals, and should Sublessee fail to pay such Costs, telephone or
utility costs, Sublessor shall have the same remedies as Sublessor has for the
non-payment of Rental.

          4.3  Free Rent. Sublessor agrees, in consideration for Sublessor not
               ---------
removing any walls or touching up any paint in the Subleased Premises, to
provide Sublessee with a one time credit for thirty (30) days of free rent. Such
one time credit for said thirty (30) days of free rent shall total Twenty
Thousand Four Hundred and no/100 Dollars ($20,400.00) and shall be credited
against the installment of Rental due hereunder by Sublessee to Sublessor on
October 1, 1999.

     5.   Late Payment Interest Charges. All Rental and other amounts of money
          -----------------------------
payable by Sublessee to Sublessor under Section 4 or otherwise due from
Sublessee to Sublessor under this Sublease, shall be paid on or before the due
date thereof. In the event any installment of Base Rental, Costs, or other
charges to be paid by Sublessee hereunder is not paid when due, Sublessee, from
and after the fifth (5th) day after the date when due, shall pay interest on the
amount due equal to eighteen percent (18%) per annum, so long as said amount
remains unpaid (but in no event shall the amount of such late charge exceed an
amount based upon the highest legally permissible rate chargeable at any time by
Sublessor under the circumstances). Should Sublessee make a partial payment of
past due amounts, the amount of such partial payment shall be applied first to
reduce all accrued and unpaid interest charges, in order of their maturity, and
then to reduce all other past due amounts, in order of their maturity.
Acceptance by Sublessor of a late payment, and the cashing of a check, in an
amount less than that which is currently due shall in no way affect Sublessor's
rights under this Sublease and in no way be an accord and satisfaction. This
provision does not prevent Sublessor from declaring the non-payment of Base
Rental, Costs, or other charges to be paid hereunder when due an Event of
Default hereunder. Sublessee agrees to pay said late payment interest
immediately upon demand. It is acknowledged by the parties hereto that the late
payment by Sublessee to Sublessor of Rental or any other sums due hereunder will
cause Sublessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Sublease, the exact
amount of which would be extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain. Such
costs include, but are not limited to processing, clerical and accounting
charges, lost interest, and late charges which may be imposed on Sublessor by
the terms of the Prime Lease. All Rental and other amounts of money payable by
Sublessee to Sublessor under this Sublease shall be paid on or before the due
date thereof, and if not so paid, in addition to the above interest charge, a
late charge of five (5%) percent of the amount due (which late fee represents an
agreed upon charge for the administrative expense and burden suffered and
incurred by Sublessor as the result of such late payment and not payment for the
use of money) shall be due on the first (1st) day after such unpaid or
delinquent amount shall be due and unpaid. Sublessee acknowledges that the
charges under this Section are reasonable charges for damages Sublessor will
suffer as a result of the failure by Sublessee to make timely payments of
amounts due under this Sublease.

     6.   Use and Occupancy.
          -----------------

          6.1  Use. The Subleased Premises shall be used and occupied only by
               ---
Sublessee's employees for general industrial, warehousing and office purposes,
including, without limitation, research and development and assembly, and for no
other purpose.

          6.2  Compliance with Law.
               -------------------

               (a) Sublessee acknowledges and agrees that Sublessee is leasing
the Subleased Premises on an "AS IS," "WHERE IS," and "WITH ALL FAULTS" basis,
and subject to the Prime Lease. Sublessee accepts the Subleased Premises in
their existing condition, without representation or warranty, express or
implied, in fact or by law, and no representation, statement or warranty,
express or implied, has been made by or on behalf of Sublessor as to such
condition, or as to the use that may be made of said Subleased Premises. In no
event shall Sublessor be liable for any defect in the Subleased Premises
(whether latent or patent) or for any limitation on their use. All alterations,
decorations, installations, additions or improvements in or to the Subleased
Premises shall be made at Sublessee's sole cost and expense, shall be subject to
Prime Lessor's consent (if and to the extent any such matter if done by
Sublessor under the Prime Lease would be subject to Prime Lessor's consent) and
shall comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease, including,
without limitation, Section 9 of the Prime Lease applicable to the making of
Alterations. Sublessee shall be responsible for replacing any damaged or stained
ceiling tiles in the Subleased Premises and may deduct the cost, not to exceed
One Thousand Five Hundred and no/100 Dollars ($1,500.00), of such replacement
from Sublessee's second month's rental payment upon providing Sublessor with
invoices from the contractors who performed such replacement which document the
completion of such ceiling tile replacement. Sublessor agrees, at its sole cost
and expense, prior to the Commencement Date, to have the carpets in the
Subleased Premises professionally steam cleaned, to provide full janitorial
service to the Subleased Premises, and to have its maintenance contractor
inspect the HVAC systems for the Subleased Premises and make such repairs as are
necessary to deliver the HVAC systems to Sublessee in good repair and working
order in accordance with the specifications for such equipment.

          (b) All alterations, additions, improvements or installations (herein
collectively referred to as "Alterations" or individually referred to as an
"Alteration") which may be made to the Subleased Premises by Sublessee, shall,
upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, by lapse of time or
otherwise, become the property of Sublessor and remain upon and be surrendered
with the Subleased Premises, unless the terms of the Prime Lease require any
Alterations of Sublessee to be removed at the end of the term of the Prime
Lease, in which case Sublessee shall remove such Alterations and restore all
damage caused by such removal at Sublessee's cost. Personal property of
Sublessee that shall remain in the Subleased Premises upon the expiration or
earlier termination of the Term shall be deemed abandoned, shall thereupon
become the property of Sublessor and Sublessor may dispose of such property any
way Sublessor sees fit without liability to Sublessee. At the expiration or
earlier termination of the Term, Sublessee shall, at Sublessee's sole cost and
expense, deliver possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublessor broom clean
and free of debris, ordinary wear excepted. Sublessee shall specifically have no
right to remove any personal property, fixtures, trade fixtures or other items
owned by Sublessor in or about the Subleased Premises. Notwithstanding any other
term or provision of this Sublease to the contrary, provided that no Event of
Default of Sublessee hereunder remains outstanding and uncured, Sublessee may
remove any personal property or trade fixtures purchased and installed by
Sublessee in the Subleased Premises.

          (c) Sublessee shall, at Sublessee's expense, comply promptly with all
applicable statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, codes, orders, restrictions
of record, and requirements in effect during the Term or any part of the Term
hereof regulating the use of the Subleased Premises, including, without
limitation, the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 and all amendments,
rules and regulations promulgated in connection therewith, except to the extent
the Prime Lessor is expressly required by the terms of the Prime Lease to comply
with such statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, codes, orders, restrictions
of record or requirements at Prime Lessor's cost. Sublessee shall not use or
permit the use of the Subleased Premises in any manner that will

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

tend to create waste, odors, noise, heat, cold, vibration or a nuisance, or
which shall tend to disturb Sublessor or other tenants of the Building.

          6.3  Condition of Subleased Premises. Sublessee hereby accepts the
               -------------------------------
Subleased Premises in their condition existing as of the date of the execution
hereof, subject to all applicable zoning, municipal, county and state laws,
ordinances, codes and regulations governing and regulating the use of the
Subleased Premises, and accepts this Sublease subject to all matters disclosed
hereby and by any exhibits attached hereto. Sublessee acknowledges that neither
Sublessor nor Sublessor's agents have made any representation or warranty as to
the suitability of the Subleased Premises or any improvements thereto for the
conduct of Sublessee's business.

          6.4  Compliance with Prime Lease.
               ---------------------------

               (a) Sublessee agrees that it will occupy the Subleased Premises
in accordance with the terms of the Prime Lease and will not suffer to be done
or omit to do any act which may result in a violation of or a default under any
of the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease, or render Sublessor liable for
any damage, charge or expense thereunder. Sublessee further covenants and agrees
to indemnify Sublessor against and hold Sublessor harmless from any claim,
demand, action, proceeding, suit, liability, loss, judgment, expense (including
attorneys' fees) and damages of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of, by
reason of, or resulting from, Sublessee's failure to perform or observe any of
the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease or this Sublease. Any other
provision in this Sublease to the contrary notwithstanding, in addition to the
Base Rental and Costs, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor as Rental hereunder, any
and all sums which Sublessor may be required to pay the Prime Lessor arising out
of, by reason of, or resulting from Sublessee's use or occupancy of the
Subleased Premises, Sublessee's failure to perform or observe one or more of the
terms and conditions of the Prime Lease or this Sublease, or arising out of a
request by Sublessee for additional Building services from Prime Lessor
(including, without limitation, charges associated with over standard electrical
charges or extra janitorial services requested by Sublessee).

               (b) Sublessee agrees that Sublessor shall not be required to
perform any of the covenants, agreements and/or obligations of Prime Lessor
under the Prime Lease and, insofar as any of the covenants, agreements and
obligations of Sublessor hereunder are required to be performed under the Prime
Lease by Prime Lessor thereunder, Sublessee acknowledges and agrees that
Sublessor shall be entitled to look to Prime Lessor for such performance.
Sublessor shall have no obligation to perform any work or services in the
Subleased Premises or to perform any other obligation of Prime Lessor under the
Prime Lease. In no event shall Sublessor be liable for the non-performance of
any obligation of the Prime Lessor tinder the Prime Lease, unless said non-
performance was caused by or resulted from the actions of Sublessor. Subject to
the other terms set forth below in this Section 6.4(b), Sublessor shall exercise
due diligence and take such action as may reasonably be indicated under the
circumstances, to secure such performance by Prime Lessor upon Sublessee's
written notice to Sublessor and request therefor (hereinafter referred as a
"Request for Prime Lessor's Performance") if Sublessor determines it is
reasonable and appropriate to do so. Sublessee agrees that it shall be the
responsibility of Prime Lessor to provide any such work and services and not
that of Sublessor. Sublessee shall not have the right to require or obtain
performance by Sublessor, and Sublessee shall have no claim against Sublessor by
reason of Prime Lessor's failure or refusal to comply with any of the terms of
the Prime Lease on its part to be performed. No such failure or refusal shall
constitute an eviction, actual or constructive, and Sublessee shall not be
entitled to cancel this Sublease or to any reduction or abatement of the rent
reserved herein. It is further agreed that Sublessor shall join with Sublessee
in any notice or demand that Prime Lessor perform and comply with its
obligations under the Prime Lease and that Sublessor shall, at Sublessee's
expense, cooperate generally with Sublessee in seeking such performance and
compliance on the part of Prime Lessor; provided, however, Sublessor shall not
be obligated to commence any legal action or proceeding against Prime Lessor
unless (i) no default of Sublessee remains outstanding and uncured under this
Sublease, (ii) Sublessee shall, in a written instrument acceptable to Sublessor,
indemnify, defend and hold Sublessor free and harmless of and from all claims,
demands, actions, proceedings, suits, liabilities, losses, judgments, expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) and damages of any kind or nature
whatsoever which Sublessor may suffer or incur in connection with such legal
action or proceeding, and (iii) Sublessee shall provide

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

to Sublessor such security for said indemnity as Sublessor may in its sole and
absolute discretion deem appropriate.

               (c) If Sublessee asks Sublessor in writing to request Prime
Lessor to give its approval or consent under the Prime Lease in any situation
where such approval or consent is required hereunder or under the Prime Lease,
Sublessor agrees to request such approval or consent from Prime Lessor. However,
such request by Sublessor shall not be deemed to constitute the approval or
consent of Sublessor in any situation where Sublessor's approval or consent is
required hereunder or to impair, affect, waive or diminish in any way the right
and ability of Sublessor or refuse to give its approval or consent, either prior
to or subsequent to making such request. In making any such request of Prime
Lessor, Sublessor shall be acting solely for Sublessee in order to satisfy any
requirement of the Prime Lease that Sublessor request such consent from Prime
Lessor. In all provisions of the Prime Lease (under the terms thereof and
without regard to modification thereof for purposes of incorporation into this
Sublease) requiring the approval or consent of Prime Lessor, Sublessee shall be
required to obtain the approval or consent of Sublessor and Prime Lessor, and
Sublessor shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval or consent;
provided that if Prime Lessor shall have withheld its approval or consent in
accordance with the Prime Lease, in any instance in which such approval or
consent is so required, Sublessor's refusal to give its approval or consent in
such instance shall not be deemed unreasonable.

               (d)  If Sublessor receives the benefit of an abatement of the
rental due under the Prime Lease with respect to the Subleased Premises under
the terms of:

                    (i)  Section 10 of the Prime Lease and Section 29 of the
Addendum to the Prime Lease as a result of a destruction of all or part of the
Subleased Premises; or

                    (ii) Section 11 of the Prime Lease as a result of a
condemnation of all or part of the Subleased Premises;

then the Base Rental due under this Sublease shall abate for the same period of
time that the Prime Lessor abates Sublessor's Base Rental under the Prime Lease
with respect to the Subleased Premises. Sublessee shall not receive any
abatement pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.4(d) unless and until the
Prime Lessor provides Sublessor an uncontested abatement under one of the above-
referenced Sections with respect to the Subleased Premises. This Sublease shall
terminate upon the termination of the Prime Lease pursuant to Sections 10 or 11
of the Prime Lease and Section 29 of the Addendum to the Prime Lease. Sublessee
shall have no right to terminate this Sublease in the event of a destruction,
casualty or a condemnation, taking by eminent domain or deed in lieu thereof,
except upon termination of the Prime Lease with respect to the Subleased
Premises pursuant to Sections 10 and/or 11 of the Prime Lease and/or Section 29
of the Addendum to the Prime Lease. Sublessor agrees not to itself unilaterally
terminate the Prime Lease as it relates to the Subleased Premises, however, both
Sublessor and Sublessee are subject to the Prime Lessor's rights to terminate
the Prime Lease as provided in Sections 10 and 11 of the Prime Lease and Section
29 of the Addendum to the Prime Lease, or otherwise.

the benefit of Sublessor and Prime Lessor each and every obligation of Sublessor
under the Prime Lease with respect to the Subleased Premises, except for those

               -----------
Section 7.5 hereof are hereinafter referred to as the "Sublessee's Assumed
Obligations". The obligations that Sublessee has not assumed under Section 7.5
hereof are hereinafter referred to as the "Remaining Obligations".

          7.7  Sublessee's Indemnity. Sublessee shall indemnify, defend and hold
               ---------------------
Sublessor free and harmless of and from all claims, demands, actions,
proceedings, suits, liabilities, losses, judgments, expenses (including
attorneys' fees) and damages of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of
Sublessee's failure to comply with or perform Sublessee's Assumed Obligations.

          7.8  Maintenance of Prime Lease. Sublessor agrees to maintain the
               --------------------------
Prime Lease in existence, as it pertains to the Subleased Premises, during the

               ---------------------------

Lessor with evidence, certificates or any other matter or thing, Sublessee shall
be required to submit, exhibit to, supply or provide, as the case may be, the
same to Sublessor and Prime Lessor. In any such instance, the Sublessor shall
reasonably determine if such evidence, certificate or other matter or thing
shall be satisfactory, provided that if the Prime Lessor shall deem such
evidence, certificate or other matter or thing unsatisfactory, Sublessor's
refusal to accept such evidence, certificate or other matter or thing, as
satisfactory to Sublessor shall not be deemed unreasonable.

          7.10 Sublessor's Representations. Sublessor represents to Sublessee,
               ---------------------------
based on the present actual knowledge of Sublessor and its employees, that as of
the date hereof:

               (a) Sublessor has not executed any sublease and/or prior
assignment of any of its rights under the Prime Lease with respect to the
Subleased Premises, which would adversely affect this Sublease;

               (b) No notices of default sent by Sublessor to Prime Lessor
remain outstanding and uncured with respect to any failure of the Prime Lessor
to perform the covenants and obligations on its parts to be performed and
observed under the Prime Lease;

               (c) Sublessor has received no written notices of default from the
Prime Lessor which remain outstanding and uncured, and no circumstances exist
that with the giving of notice under the Prime Lease, the passage of time, or
both would constitute an Event of Default on the part of Sublessor under the
Prime Lease; and

               (d) Sublessor has received no written notices of any violations
of law with respect to the Premises under the Prime Lease from any governmental
authority or any other person.

     8.   Taxes Payable By Sublessee. In addition to Base Rental, Costs and
          --------------------------
other charges to be paid by Sublessee hereunder, Sublessee shall reimburse
Sublessor upon demand, as Rental, for any and all taxes payable by Sublessor
(other than Sublessor's federal, state and local net income taxes, franchise,
gift, transfer, capital stock, estate or inheritance taxes) whether or not now
customary or within the contemplation of the parties hereto: (a) upon, measured
by or reasonably attributable to the cost or value of Sublessee's equipment,
furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Subleased
Premises or by the cost or value of any improvements made in or to the Subleased
Premises by Sublessee, regardless of whether title to such improvements shall be
in Prime Lessor, Sublessee or Sublessor (b) upon, measured by and directly
related to the monthly rental payable hereunder, including, without limitation,
any gross receipts, gross income tax or excise tax levied by any local
governmental authority, the State of California, the federal government or any
other governmental body with respect to the receipt of such rental; (c) upon or
with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance,
alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Sublessee of the Subleased Premises or
any portion thereof; or (d) upon this transaction or any document to which
Sublessee is a party creating or transferring an interest in the Subleased
Premises. In the event that it shall not be lawful for Sublessee so to reimburse
Sublessor, the monthly Base Rental and Costs payable to Sublessor under this
Sublease shall be revised to net Sublessor the same net Base Rental and Costs
after imposition of any such tax upon Sublessor as would have been payable to
Sublessor prior to the imposition of any such tax.

     9.   Assignment or Subletting. Sublessee, for itself, its successors and
          ------------------------
assigns, expressly covenants and agrees that it shall not assign, mortgage,
encumber or otherwise transfer any right or interest in this Sublease, nor
sublet, nor suffer or permit the Subleased Premises or any part thereof to be
used by others, without the prior written consent of Sublessor and Prime Lessor
in each instance, which consent by Sublessor shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, and any such attempted assignment, mortgage, encumbrance, other
transfer or subletting without such consent shall be null and void and ab
                                                                       --
initio. The consent by Sublessor to an assignment or subletting shall not in any
------
way release or relieve Sublessee from any obligation or liability under this
Sublease, or in any way be construed to relieve Sublessee from obtaining the
express consent in writing of Sublessor and Prime Lessor to any further
assignment or subletting. Sublessee's right to further assign this Sublease or
to further sublet the Subleased Premises shall be subject to the provisions of

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

Section 13 of the Prime Lease. Sublessee agrees to pay Sublessor and Prime
Lessor all costs paid or incurred by them to review any sublease or assignment
proposed by Sublessee. If this Sublease is assigned, or if the Subleased
Premises or any part thereof is sublet or occupied by any person, firm or
corporation other than Sublessee, with the consent of Sublessor and Prime
Lessor, Sublessor may, upon any default by Sublessee, collect rent from the
assignee, subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the
Rental, but no such assignment, subletting, occupancy or collection shall be
deemed a waiver of this covenant or the acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or
occupant as a tenant, or a release of Sublessee from the future performance by
Sublessee of the covenants and agreements on the part of Sublessee herein
contained. Sublessee shall not be entitled to make, nor shall Sublessee make,
any claim, and Sublessee hereby waives any claims, for money damages (nor shall
Sublessee claim any money damages by way of set-off, counterclaim or defense)
based on any claim or assertion by Sublessee that Sublessor or Prime Lessor has
unreasonably withheld and/or delayed its consent or approval to a proposed
assignment or sub-subletting as provided for in this Section 9 or Section 13 of
the Prime Lease. Sublessee's sole and exclusive remedy shall be to enforce the

     15.  Default and Remedies.
          --------------------

          15.1  Events of Default. Sublessee shall be in default under this
                -----------------
Sublease upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events or
occurrences, each of which shall be deemed to be a material Event of Default:

                (i)   The failure by Sublessee to make any payment due Sublessor
under the terms of this Sublease with respect to Base Rental or Costs, within
three (3) days after Sublessee has been given written notice from Sublessor to
Sublessee specifying Sublessee's failure to make such payment. Sublessor shall
not be required to give written notice to Sublessee of any failure to make any
such payments more than two (2) times in any calendar year. After Sublessor has
given Sublessee the second written notice with respect to Sublessee's failing in
the payment of such amounts in any calendar year, thereafter the failure to pay
any such payment(s) during the remainder of the same calendar year shall mature
into a material Event of Default if such payment is not made by the date when
the same shall be due and payable; or

                (ii)  Sublessee fails to pay, when due, any other sum or amount
due and payable under this Sublease (other than Base Rental or Costs), or under
the Prime Lease provisions assumed by Sublessee pursuant to Paragraph 7.5
herein, and such failure continues for twenty-five (25) days after notice
thereof from Sublessor or Prime Lessor; or

                (iii) Sublessee fails to fully and punctually observe or perform
any of the terms, conditions, agreements or covenants of this Sublease (other
than the obligation to pay the sums described in subparagraphs 15. l(i) and (ii)
above) and such failure continues for twenty-five (25) days after notice thereof
from Sublessor provided, however, that if such failure is an non-monetary
failure and cannot reasonably be cured within such twenty-five (25) day period,
no Event of Default shall exist hereunder if Sublessee begins to cure such
default within such twenty-five (25) day period and diligently, continuously and
in good faith pursues said cure to completion within one hundred and ten (110)
days after such notice; or

                (iv)  Sublessee fails to fully and punctually observe or perform
any of the terms or covenants of the Prime Lease assumed by Lessee pursuant to
Paragraph 7.5 above and such failure continues for twenty-five (25) days after
notice thereof from Sublessor or Prime Lessor, provided, however, that if such
failure is a non-monetary failure and cannot reasonably be cured within such
twenty-five (25) day period, no Event of Default shall exist hereunder if
Sublessee begins to cure such default within such twenty-five (25) day period
and diligently, continuously and in good faith pursues said cure to completion
within sixty (60) days after such notice; or

                (v)   Sublessee fails to eliminate any (a) odor, vibration,
noise, heat, cold or nuisance emanating from the Subleased Premises, which
disturbs Sublessor or other tenants of the Building, (b) waste, or (c) violation
of any legal requirement, caused by the act or omission of Sublessee, it agents,
employees, invitees, sublessees, assignees, contractors or subcontractors, and
such failure continues for five (5) days after notice thereof from Sublessor or
Prime Lessor; or

                (vi)  The filing or execution or occurrence of: (a) a petition
by or against Sublessee or any guarantor of this Sublease in bankruptcy or
seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation,
dissolution or similar relief under any provision of the present or any future
bankruptcy act or any other present or future federal, state or other bankruptcy
or insolvency statute or law, provided however that if an involuntary bankruptcy
petition is filed against Sublessee or any guarantor of this Sublease, no Event
of Default shall occur if said involuntary bankruptcy petition is dismissed
within sixty (60) days of the date such petition was initially filed, (b)
adjudication of Sublessee or any guarantor of this Sublease as a bankrupt or
insolvent, insolvency in the bankruptcy or equity sense, (c) an assignment by
Sublessee or any guarantor of this Sublease for the benefit of creditors, (d) a
petition or other proceeding by or against Sublessee or any guarantor of this
Sublease, or the appointment of a trustee, receiver, guardian, conservator or
liquidator with respect to any portion of Sublessee's property or property of
any guarantor of this Sublease, (e) any levy, execution or attachment against
Sublessee or any guarantor of this Sublease, or (f) any transfer or passage of
any interest of Sublessee under this Sublease by operation of law; or

Premises or the Building.

          15.2  Remedies upon Default.
                ---------------------

                (i)    If Sublessor elects pursuant to Section 15.1 to declare
an Event of Default, then Sublessor shall, during the continuation of said Event
of Default, have the right to declare a forfeiture of this Sublease as provided
in Section 1161 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, by giving Sublessee
an additional notice three (3) days prior to the effectiveness of said
forfeiture, and provided that such Sublessor's notice states such an election,
Sublessee's right to possession shall terminate and this Sublease shall
terminate, unless on or before the date specified in such notice, all arrears of
rent and all other sums specified in the initial notice of default and payable
by Sublessee under this Sublease shall have been paid by Sublessee and all
uncured breaches of this Sublease by Sublessee which were specified in the
initial notice of default shall have been fully remedied. Upon such termination,
Sublessor may, at its option and without any further notice or demand, in
addition to any other rights and remedies given hereunder or by law, exercise
its remedies relating hereto in accordance with the following provisions:

          (a)   In the event of any such termination of this Sublease, Sublessor
may then or at any time thereafter by judicial process, re-enter the Subleased
Premises and remove therefrom all persons and property and again repossess and
enjoy the Subleased Premises, without prejudice to any other remedies that
Sublessor may have by reason of such Event of Default and termination.

          (b)   In the event of any such termination of this Sublease, and in
addition to any other rights and remedies Sublessor may have, Sublessor shall
have all of the rights and remedies of a landlord provided by Section 1951.2 of
the California Civil Code. The amount of damages which Sublessor may recover in
the event of such termination shall include, without limitation, (1) the worth
at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of
the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of rental loss that
Sublessee proves could be reasonably avoided for the same period, (2) all
reasonable legal expenses and other reasonable related costs incurred by
Sublessor as a consequence of Sublessee's default, (3) all reasonable costs
incurred by Sublessor in restoring the Subleased Premises to good order and
condition, or in remodeling, renovating or otherwise preparing the Subleased
Premises for reletting, and (4) all reasonable costs (including, without
limitation, any commercially reasonable brokerage commissions) incurred by
Sublessor in reletting the Subleased Premises.

          (c)   After terminating this Sublease, Sublessor may remove any and
all personal property located in the Subleased Premises and place such property
in a public or private warehouse or elsewhere at the sole cost and expense of
Sublessee. In the event that Sublessee shall not immediately pay the cost of
storage of such property after the same has been stored for a period of thirty
(30) days or more, Sublessor may sell any or all thereof at a public or private
sale in such manner and at such times and places as Sublessor in its reasonable
discretion may deem proper, without any further notice to or demand upon
Sublessee. Sublessee waives all claims for damages -J that may be caused by
Sublessor's removing or storing or selling Sublessor's furniture, fixtures,
machinery and equipment as herein provided; or

                (ii)  In the event of the occurrence of any of the events
specified in Section 15.1(vi)(a), (b) or (c) of this Sublease, if Sublessor
shall not choose to exercise, or by law shall not be able to exercise, its
rights hereunder to terminate this Sublease, then, neither Sublessee, as debtor-
in-possession, nor any trustee or other person (collectively, the "Assuming
Sublessee") shall be entitled to assume this Sublease unless on or before the
date of such assumption, the Assuming Sublessee (a) cures, or provides adequate
assurance that the Assuming Sublessee will promptly cure, any existing default
under this Sublease, (b) compensates, or provides adequate assurance that the
Assuming Sublessee will promptly compensate Sublessor for any pecuniary loss
(including, Without limitation, attorneys fees and disbursements) resulting from
such default, and (c) provides adequate assurance of future performance under
this Sublease. For purposes of this Section 15.2(ii), "adequate assurance" of
such cure, compensation or future performance shall be effected by the
establishment of an escrow fund for the amount at issue or by bonding; or

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

                (iii)    Continuation After Default. If an Event of Default
                         --------------------------
exists under this sublease and Sublessee has abandoned the Subleased Premises,
Sublessor shall also have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section
1951.4 (Sublessor may continue this Sublease in effect after Sublessee has
breached this Sublease and abandoned the Subleased Premises and recover rent as
it becomes due; provided, however that Sublessee has the right to sublet or
assign this Sublease, subject only to the limitations set forth in Section 9
hereof). Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the Subleased
Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon initiative of Sublessor to
protect Sublessor's interest under this Sublease shall not constitute a
termination of Sublessee's right to possession; or

                (iv)     Without liability to Sublessee or any other party and
without constituting a constructive or actual eviction, suspend or discontinue
furnishing or rendering to Sublessee any property, material, labor, utilities or
other service, wherever Sublessor or Prime Lessor is obligated to furnish or
render the same so long as Sublessee is in default under this Sublease; or

                (v)      Allow the Subleased Premises to remain unoccupied and
collect rent from Sublessee as it comes due; or

                (vi)     The remedies provided for in this Sublease are
cumulative and are in addition to any other remedies available to Sublessor at
law or in equity by statute or otherwise.

          15.3  No Election of Remedies. Sublessor's pursuit of any remedy or
                -----------------------
remedies, including without limitation, any one or more of the remedies stated
in the foregoing Section 15.2 above, shall not (i) constitute an election of
remedies or preclude pursuit of any other remedy or remedies provided in this
Sublease or any other remedy or remedies provided by law or in equity,
separately or concurrently or in any combination, or (ii) serve as the basis for
any claim of constructive eviction, or allow Sublessee to withhold any payments
under this Sublease.

          15.4  Application of Funds. If this Sublease shall terminate as a
                --------------------
result of or while there exists a default hereunder, any funds of Sublessee held
by Sublessor may be applied by Sublessor to any damages payable by Sublessee
(whether provided for herein or by law) as a result of such termination or
default.

          15.5  Subsequent Actions. Neither the commencement of any action or
                ------------------
proceeding, nor the settlement thereof, nor entry of judgment thereon shall bar
either party from bringing subsequent actions or proceedings from time to time,
nor shall the failure to include in any action or proceeding any sum or sums
then due be a bar to the maintenance of any subsequent actions or proceedings
for the recovery of such sum or sums so omitted.

          15.6  Rent. All sums which Sublessee has anywhere in this Sublease
                ----
agreed to pay to or reimburse Sublessor, whether designated as Costs, additional
rent or otherwise, and whether for operating costs, telephone, utilities, taxes,
sewer rents or rates, water rents or rates, insurance premiums, cost of repairs
or otherwise, shall be deemed additional rent reserved in this Sublease, and
Sublessor shall have for the collection thereof all the remedies available for
the collection of unpaid rents.

          15.7  Sublessor's Right of Entry. Sublessor and its agents, servants,

terms of this Sublease.

  8.  Costs. Tenant shall pay all utility and maintenance costs, property taxes,
      -----
and insurance premiums associated with the Premises, as described below.
<PAGE>

to the Premises, including fire sprinkler monitoring; if utilities are not
separately metered to the Premises, Tenant shall pay for its percentage share.
Tenant shall pay its percentage share of all costs incurred by Landlord for
maintenance and repair of the building exterior and Common Area during the lease
term, including but not limited to painting, parking lot surfacing and roof
maintenance (excluding in the case of roof maintenance, expenditures for capital
items).

     8.2.  Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay its percentage share of all taxes,
           --------------
general and special assessments, and other charges imposed by any taxing
authority and levied against the property containing the Premises or against
Landlord by virtue of its ownership thereof or collection of rental income
therefrom (excepting only estate taxes, inheritance taxes, and income taxes that
are payable on nonrental as well as rental income). "Taxing authority" includes
all entities having taxing or assessment authority by law or by virtue of any
recorded instrument binding on the owner of the Premises.

     8.3.  Insurance. Tenant shall pay its percentage share of all premiums for
           ---------
such insurance, as shall be carried by Landlord to its full replacement cost
value excluding the cost of excavations, foundations and footings, against all
perils included in the classifications of fire, extended coverage, vandalism,
malicious mischief, special extended perils, and all-risk sprinkler leakage;
against loss of Building rents, property taxes, and insurance costs for a period
of not more than six months; against personal injury and property damage
liability to the extent such insurance is not provided by Tenant under this
Lease; against such other hazards as are then normally insured against by owners
of commercial buildings of the sort containing the Premises.

     8.4.  Percentage Share. Tenant's percentage share of the costs described
           ----------------
above shall be the percentage stated in the Lease Summary, or, if no percentage
is there stated, shall be determined by the square footage of the Premises
divided by the square footage of the Building. However, if Tenant utilizes more
than its proportionate share of the Common Area, for parking or other purposes,
or more than a normal amount of any utility service, then Landlord may equitably
increase Tenant's percentage share of costs associated with those items to
account for such additional usage. Tenant's percentage share of property taxes
may also be equitably adjusted by Landlord to take account of any
disproportionate burden imposed by special improvements or valuations relating
to other portions of the building or to other buildings on the tax parcel, which
adjustment may raise or lower Tenant's percentage share; valuation data
contained on the tax assessor's worksheets, if available, shall conclusively
determine the manner in which any equitable adjustment is to be made. Tenant
shall have the right to review the tax assessor's worksheets as a method of
auditing Landlord's allocations of property taxes to be paid by Tenant.

     8.5.  Payment. At Landlord's election, Tenant shall pay its percentage
           -------
share of such costs to Landlord either (i) when incurred, on the basis on
Landlord's periodic billings, or (ii) monthly in advance, on the first day of
each calendar month, and the monthly amount shall be determined by Landlord's
then-current estimate of the average monthly costs. If periodic billings are
utilized, Tenant's payment shall be due ten days after the billing date.
Landlord's initial estimate of the average monthly cost may be stated in the
Lease Summary. Periodically, but not less frequently than annually, Landlord
will provide Tenant with an accounting of all such costs for the preceding
period, and an appropriate sum will be credited or debited against Tenant's next
monthly rental payment so as to equalize Tenant's actual payments and Tenant's
actual share of costs for the period. Landlord may revise its monthly cost
estimate, and provide Tenant with an accounting for the previous period, at any
time during the lease term. If the lease term includes only a portion of a
taxing or insured period, then Tenant shall pay a pro rata portion of the total
property taxes or insurance premiums, based upon the number of days in the lease
term that are included in the taxing or insured period; however, Tenant shall
pay the entire amount of any property tax, for the tax year in which this Lease
terminates (or for the succeeding tax year if this Lease terminates after the
lien date for that tax year), levied on or attributable to improvements or
property that is to be removed from the Premises by Tenant prior to or at the
end of the lease term. If the Lease terminates before the property taxes for the
then-current fiscal year are known, the amount of the tax shall be reasonably
estimated on the basis of the best available information on current assessments
a and tax rates or, if no such information is available, shall be projected at
the same rate as was imposed for the last previous taxing period, plus 2%.

  9.  Alterations.
      -----------

     9.1.  Tenant Work. Tenant shall make no alteration, addition, or utility
           -----------
installation ("Changes") on or to the Premises without Landlord's prior written
consent. In making approved Changes, Tenant shall comply with all applicable
building code requirements. Unless Landlord has specifically waived this
provision in writing prior to the installation of Changes, such Changes (i)
shall be removed from the Premises, and all damage resulting from such removal
repaired by Tenant, prior to the end of the lease term, or (ii) shall remain on
the Premises at the end of the lease term and become the property of Landlord,
at Landlord's election. If Landlord does not notify Tenant, at least three
months prior to the end of the lease term, of its election to have Changes
remain on the Premises, then Landlord shall thereby have elected to require
Tenant to remove such Changes. In making all Changes, Tenant shall hold Landlord
harmless from mechanics' liens and all other liability resulting therefrom.

     9.2.  Landlord Work and Entry. Upon execution of this Lease, or at such
           -----------------------
later time as is feasible and consistent with the terms hereof, Landlord shall
commence construction of any improvements depicted or described as Landlord work
on an Exhibit or Addendum to this Lease. Construction of such improvements shall
be pursued to completion with reasonable diligence, subject to delays for
reasons beyond Landlord's reasonable control ("Unexpected Events"). Unexpected
Events include, for example, labor difficulties, inclement
<PAGE>

weather, rationing or other governmental controls, and shortages of materials or
services.

All such improvements shall become part of the Premises and remain thereon at
the termination of the Lease. Landlord may enter the Premises at any time for
inspection purposes, and may enter during normal business hours to show the
Premises to prospective Tenants in the last 180 days of the lease term
accompanied by employers of Tenant.

  10.  Damage. If any structural portion of the Premises that Landlord is
       ------
obligated to maintain is damaged or destroyed by any cause, if such damage is
insured against, and if the insurance proceeds are available for rebuilding,
then this Lease will not terminate and Landlord will cause such damage to be
repaired with reasonable diligence, subject to delays in the disbursement of
insurance proceeds and Unexpected Events. Landlord's obligation in this regard
shall be enforceable by Tenant only if such damage interferes with Tenant's
reasonable occupancy of the Premises. Tenant's rent will abate to the extent
that the damage and repair period interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises.
See Paragraph 29.0 of Addendum. If Landlord elects to repair, rent will abate in
the manner described above; other than the obligation to repair stated above,
Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant on account of the damage.

  11.  Condemnation. If there is a taking by eminent domain or a transfer under
       ------------
threat thereof of (i) the entire Premises, or (ii) so much of the Premises, for
the balance of the lease term, as prevents the continued reasonable conduct of
Tenant's business thereon, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date that
possession of the condemned premises is delivered to the condemnor. No other
such taking or transfer shall terminate this Lease. All condemnation proceeds
shall be the property of Landlord, excepting only such portion thereof as is
designated by the condemnor as compensation for Tenant's moving expenses, of
Tenant's goodwill, or for Tenant's trade fixtures and improvements to the
Premises actually owned by Tenant.

  12.  Liability.
       ---------

     12.1.  Insurance. Tenant shall, at its expense, maintain in force during

damage insurance, having a liability limit of not less than One Million Dollars
($1,000,000), with contractual liability endorsement, insuring Landlord and
Tenant against all liability arising out of the owner ship, use, occupancy, or
maintenance of the Premises and appurtenant areas. Such insurance shall be
endorsed as primary and non-contributing, as to any policy carried by Landlord.
Tenant will deliver to Landlord a certificate evidencing such insurance and
providing that the insurance will not be cancelled except on at least 30 days
notice to Landlord.

     12.2.  Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord and hold it harmless from
            ---------
all claims, demands, liabilities, and expenses, including attorney's fees,
arising out of Tenant's use of the Premises or from any acts permitted by Tenant
on the Premises, excluding claims or actions based upon Landlord's active
negligence or willful misconduct.

     12.3. Waiver of Liability (No Subrogation). To the extent allowable by the
           ------------------------------------
applicable insurance without reduction of coverage, Landlord and Tenant hereby
waive all rights of recovery against the other for loss or damage that is
compensable by insurance then in force or required by this Agreement.

  13.  Transfer.
       --------

     13.1  Transfer by Tenant. Tenant shall not assign, sublet, or otherwise
           ------------------
transfer, or permit a transfer of, all or any portion of its interest in this
Lease, the Premises, or of a controlling interest in any Tenant entity, without
Landlord's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. No
such consent shall relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease, nor shall
it constitute consent to any further transfer. As a condition of such consent,
the transferee must assume all of Tenant's liabilities hereunder.

     13.2. Transfer by Landlord. The liability of Landlord hereunder shall
           --------------------
exist only in respect to the period that Landlord is the owner of the Premises,
but all of Landlord's obligations shall run with the land and be binding upon
all subsequent owners thereof. Upon any transfer of Landlord's interest in the
Premises, and notification thereof to Tenant, Landlord shall be relieved of all
liability hereunder except such as may have accrued prior to the transfer
provided transferee agrees to assume Landlord's obligations under this Lease.

  14.  Default.
       -------

     14.1  Events. The occurrence of any of the following events shall
           ------

to Tenant, in the manner described in Section 1162 of the California Code of
Civil Procedure, of written notice of default;

       14.1.2. Failure by Tenant to perform any nonmonetary obligation under
this Lease where such failure continues for more than thirty days or after

could be cured with reasonable diligence


       14.1.3. A general assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors; the

either before or after the execution of this Lease.

     14.2  Remedies. After any breach or default by Tenant, Landlord shall have
           --------

following:
<PAGE>

       14.2.1. If Tenant's right to possession is expressly terminated in
writing by Landlord because of such breach, Landlord may recover from Tenant
such damages as may be allowed under the laws of California, with interest at
the rate specified in paragraph 17.1, including the worth at the time of the
award of the amount by which the unpaid rent, for the balance of the term after
the time of the award, exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Tenant
proves could have been reasonably avoided, as discounted to the then present
value at a rate equal to one percent (1%) over the discount rate of the Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award.

       14.2.2. Without terminating Tenant's right to possession, Landlord may
enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to
recover rent as it becomes due. For purposes of this provision, any reletting of
the Premises for a term of less than the unexpired term of this Lease or any
reletting of a portion of the Premises shall, at Landlord's option, be deemed to
terminate the Tenant's right to possession only with respect to such portion of
the unexpired term or such portion of the Premises as is the subject of such
reletting.

       14.2.3. Landlord may cause a receiver to be appointed to take possession
of the Premises and all of Tenant's property thereon to protect Landlord's
interest therein.

  15.  Subordination. At the option of the holder of any security interest
       -------------
encumbering the Premises, this Lease shall be either prior to, or subordinate
to, the lien of such security interest, provided that subordination to a
security interest created after execution of this Lease shall occur only if the
security holder agrees in writing that Tenant's occupancy of the Premises will
not be disturbed by such security holder, or its successor in interest, so long
as Tenant is not in default in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

  16. Tenant Statements.
      -----------------

     16.1  Offset. At the request of any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer
           ------
of the Premises, and for the benefit of such person, Tenant will, from time to
time as required, within ten days after notice from Landlord, execute a written
statement certifying that, to the best of Tenant's knowledge, (i) this Lease is
then unmodified and is in effect, (ii) no rent other than that for the current
month has been paid in advance, (iii) Landlord is not  then in default in the
performance of any of its obligations, or specifying the manner in which any of
said matters is untrue. Tenant's failure to execute such written statement
within the time required shall constitute an admission by Tenant, which may be
relied upon by such person, that this Lease is then in effect without
modification, that no advance rent has been paid, and that Landlord is not then
in default.

     16.2.  Occupancy Certificate. Upon accepting occupancy of the Premises,
            ---------------------

            -----------------

maximum rate as permitted by law.  No acceptance by Landlord of any monetary

hereunder.

     17.2.  Quiet Enjoyment. So long as Tenant is not in default hereunder,
            ---------------
Landlord warrants to Tenant the quiet possession of the Premises throughout the

                ---------------
computer room as depicted on the attached Exhibit B. The computer room shall

computer floor and Halon system. Therefore, Tenant shall retain ownership of the

sole expense upon expiration of this Lease or extension thereof.

     29.0 Damage: If the damage referred to in Paragraph 10 of the Lease is not
