(ii) The term "Price Index" shall mean the "Consumer Price Index"
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor. All
Items. New York, N.Y.--Northeastern, N.J., all urban consumers (presently
denominated "CPI-U"), or a successor or substitute index appropriately adjusted.
(iii) the term "Price Index for the Base Year" shall mean the average of
the monthly All Items Price Indexes for each of the 12 months of the Base Year.
(b) Effective as of each January and July subsequent to the Base Year,
there shall be made a cost of living adjustment of the fixed annual rental rate
payable hereunder. The July adjustment shall be based on the percentage
difference between the Price Index for the preceding month of June and the Price
Index for the Base Year. The January adjustment shall be based on such
percentage difference between the Price Index for the preceding month of
December and the Price Index for the Base Year.
(i) In the event the Price Index for June in any calendar year during the
term of this lease reflects an increase over the Price Index for the Base Year,
then the fixed annual rent herein provided to be paid as of the July 1st
following such month of June (unchanged by any adjustments under this Article)
shall be multiplied by the percentage difference between the Price Index for
June and the Price Index for the Base Year, and the resulting sum shall be added
to such fixed annual rent, effective as of such July 1st. Said adjusted fixed
annual rent shall thereafter be payable hereunder, in equal monthly
installments, until it is readjusted pursuant to the terms of this lease.
(ii) In the event the Price Index for December in any calendar year during
the term of this lease reflects an increase over the Price Index for the Base
Year, then the fixed annual rent herein provided to be paid as of the January
1st following such month of December (unchanged by any adjustments under this
Article) shall be multiplied by the percentage difference between the Price
Index for December and the Price Index for the Base Year, and the resulting sum
shall be added to such fixed annual rent effective as of such January 1st. Said

Assuming that said fixed annual rent is $10,000, that the Price
Index for the Base Year was 102.0 and that the Price Index for the month
of June in a calendar year following the Base Year was 105.0 then the
percentage increase thus reflected, i.e. 2.94l% (3.0/102.0) would be
multiplied by $10,000, and said fixed annual rent would be increased by
$294.10 effective as of July 1st of said calendar year.
In the event that the Price Index ceases to use 1982-84=100 as the basis
of calculation, or if a substantial change is made in the terms or number of
items contained in the Price Index, then the Price Index shall be adjusted to
the figure that would have been arrived at had the manner of computing the Price
Index in effect at the date of this lease not been altered. In the event such
Price Index (or a successor or substitute index) is not available, a reliable
governmental or other non-partisan publication evaluating the information
theretofore used in determining the Price Index shall be used.

provided for in subdivision (b) to be prepared in reasonable detail and
delivered to Tenant.
(d) In no event shall the fixed annual rent originally provided to be paid
under this lease (exclusive of the adjustments under this Article) be reduced by
virtue of this Article.
(e) Any delay or failure of Landlord, beyond July or January of any year,
computing or billing for the rent adjustments hereinabove provided shall not
constitute a waiver of or in any way impair the continuing obligation of Tenant
to pay such rent adjustments hereunder.
(f) Notwithstanding any expiration or termination of this lease prior to
the lease expiration date (except in the case of a cancellation by mutual
agreement) Tenant's obligation to pay rent as adjusted under this Article shall
continue and shall cover all periods up to the lease expiration date, and shall
survive any expiration or termination of this lease.
(g) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the cost of living
adjustments to the fixed annual rental rate for any calendar year are limited in
an amount equal to 3% of the fixed annual rental payable under this lease as of
December 1st of the immediately preceeding calendar year, including any
adjustments under this article.

shall be deemed to be included within the definition of "real estate
taxes" for the purposes hereof. As to special assessments which are
payable over a period of time extending beyond the term of this lease,
only a pro rata portion thereof covering the portion of the term of this
lease unexpired at the time of the imposition of such assessment, shall be
included in "real estate taxes". If by law, any assessment may be paid in
installments, then, for the purposes hereof (a) such assessment shall be
deemed to have been payable in the maximum number of installments
permitted by law and (b) there shall be included in real estate taxes, for
each comparative year in which such installments may be paid, the
installments of such assessment so becoming payable during such
comparative year, together with interest payable during such comparative
year.
(vi) Where more than one assessment is imposed by the City of New
York for any tax year, whether denominated an "actual assessment" or a
"transitional assessment" or otherwise, then the phrases herein "assessed
value" and "assessments" shall mean whichever of the actual, transitional
or other assessment is designated by the City of New York as the taxable
assessment for that tax year.
(vii) The phrase "real estate taxes payable during the base tax
year" shall mean that amount obtained by multiplying the assessed value of
the land and buildings of the building project for the base tax year by
the tax rate for the base tax year for each $100 of such assessed value.
(c) 1. In the event that the real estate taxes payable for any comparative
year shall exceed the amount of the real estate taxes payable during the base
tax year, tenant shall pay to landlord, as additional rent for such comparative
year, an amount equal to The Percentage of the excess. Before or after the start
of each comparative year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of the
real estate taxes payable for such comparative year, and a statement of the real
estate taxes payable during the base tax year. If the real estate taxes payable
for such comparative year exceed the real estate taxes payable during the base
tax year, additional rent for such comparative year, in an amount equal to The
Percentage of the excess, shall be due from Tenant to Landlord, and such
additional rent shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days
after receipt of the aforesaid statement. The benefit of any discount for any
earlier payment or prepayment of real estate taxes shall accrue solely to the
benefit of Landlord, and such discount shall not be subtracted from the real
estate taxes payable for any comparative year.
Additionally, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, a sum equal to The
Percentage of any business improvement district assessment payable by the
building project.
2. Should the real estate taxes payable during the base tax year be
reduced by final determination of legal proceedings, settlement or otherwise,
then, the real estate taxes payable during the base tax year shall be
correspondingly revised, the additional rent theretofore paid or payable
hereunder for all comparative years shall be recomputed on the basis of such
reduction, and tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, within ten (10)
days after being billed therefor, any deficiency between the amount of such
additional rent as theretofore computed and the amount thereof due as the result
of such recomputations. Should the real estate taxes payable during the base tax
year be increased by such final determination of legal proceedings, settlement
or otherwise, then appropriate recomputation and adjustment also shall be made.
3. If after Tenant shall have made a payment or additional rent under this
subdivision (c), Landlord shall receive a refund of any portion of the real
estate taxes payable for any comparative year after the base tax year on which
such payment of additional rent shall have been based, as a result of a
reduction of such real estate taxes by final determination of legal proceedings,
settlement or otherwise, Landlord shall within ten (10) days after receiving the
refund pay to Tenant The Percentage of the refund less The Percentage of
expenses (including attorneys, and appraisers' fees) incurred by Landlord in
connection with any such application or proceeding. If prior to the payment of
taxes for any comparative year, Landlord shall have obtained a reduction of that
comparative year's assessed valuation of the building project, and therefore of
said taxes, then the term "real estate taxes" for that comparative year shall be
deemed to include the amount Landlord's expenses in obtaining such reduction in
assessed valuation, including attorneys' and appraisers' fees.
4. The statements of the real estate taxes to be furnished by Landlord as
provided above shall be certified by Landlord and shall constitute a final
determination as between Landlord and Tenant of the real estate taxes for the
Periods represented thereby, unless Tenant within thirty (30) days after they
are furnished shall give a written notice to Landlord that it disputes their
accuracy or their appropriateness, which notice shall specify the particular
respects in which the statement is inaccurate or inappropriate. Tenant shall so
dispute said statement then, pending the resolution of such dispute, tenant
shall pay the additional rent to Landlord in accordance with the statement
furnished by Landlord.
5. In no event shall the fixed annual rent under this lease (exclusive of
the additional rents under this Article) be reduced by virtue of this Article.
6. If the commencement date of the term of this lease is not the first day
of the first comparative year, then the additional rent due hereunder for such
first comparative year shall be a proportionate share of said additional rent
for the entire comparative year, said proportionate share to be based upon the
length of time that the lease term will be in existence during such first
comparative year. Upon the date of any expiration or termination of this lease
(except termination because of Tenant's default) whether the same be the date
hereinabove set forth for the expiration of the term, or any prior or subsequent
date, a proportionate share of said additional rent for the comparative year
during which such expiration or termination occurs shall immediately become due
and payable by Tenant to Landlord, if it was not theretofore already billed and
paid. The said proportionate share shall be based upon the length of time that
this lease shall have been in existence during such comparative year. Landlord
shall promptly cause statements of said additional rent for that comparative
year to be prepared and furnished to lessee. Landlord and Tenant shall thereupon
make appropriate adjustments of amounts then owing.
7. Landlord's and Tenant's obligations to make the adjustments referred to
in subdivision (6) above shall survive any expiration or termination of this
lease.
8. Any delay or failure of lessor in billing any tax escalation
hereinabove provided shall not constitute a waiver of or in any way impair the
continuing obligation of lessee to pay such tax escalation hereunder.
JURY WAIVER.
26. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive trial by jury in any action,
proceeding or counterclaim involving any matter whatsoever arising out of or in
any way connected with this lease, the relationship of landlord and tenant,
Tenant's use or occupancy of the premises (except for personal injury or
property damage) or involving the right to any statutory relief or remedy.
Tenant will not interpose any counterclaim of any nature in any summary
proceeding.
NO WAIVER, ETC.
27. No act or omission of Landlord or its agents shall constitute an
actual or constructive eviction, unless Landlord shall have first received
written notice of Tenant's claim and shall have had a reasonable opportunity to
verify such claim (Not to exceed two days). In the event that any payment herein
provided for by Tenant to Landlord shall become overdue for a period in excess
of ten (10) days after written notice by Landlord, then at landlord's option a
"late charge" shall become due and payable to Landlord, as additional rent, from
the date it was due until payment is made at the following rates: for individual
and partnership Tenants, said late charge shall be computed at the maximum legal
rate of interest; for corporate or governmental entity Tenants the late charge
shall be computed as two percent per month unless there is an applicable maximum
legal rate of interest which then shall be used. No act or omission of Landlord
or its agents shall constitute an acceptance of a surrender of the premises,
except a writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of keys to Landlord, or its
agents shall not constitute a termination of this lease or a surrender of the
premises. Acceptance by Landlord of less than the rent herein provided shall at
Landlord's option be deemed on account of earliest rent remaining unpaid. No
endorsement on any check, or letter accompanying rent, shall be deemed an accord
and satisfaction, and such check may be cashed without prejudice to Landlord. No
waiver of any provision of this lease by Landlord shall be effective,
<PAGE>
unless such waiver be in writing signed by Landlord. This lease contains the
entire agreement between the parties, and no modification thereof shall be
binding unless in writing and signed by the party concerned. Tenant shall comply
with the rules and regulations printed in this lease, and any reasonable
modifications thereof or additions thereto. Landlord shall not be liable to
Tenant for the violation of such rules and regulations by any other tenant.
Failure of Landlord to enforce any provision of this lease, or any rule or
regulation, shall not be construed as the waiver of any subsequent violation of
a provision of this lease, or any rule or regulation. This lease shall not be
affected by nor shall Landlord in any way be liable for the closing, darkening
or bricking up of windows in the premises, for any reason, including as the
result of construction on any property of which the premises are not a part or
by Landlord's own acts.

30. Tenant shall pay the amount of Landlord's cost for all water used by
Tenant for any purpose other than ordinary lavatory uses, and any sewer rent or
tax based thereon. Landlord may install a water meter to measure Tenant's water
consumption for all purposes and Tenant agrees to pay for the installation and
maintenance thereof and for water consumed as shown on said meter. If water is
made available to Tenant in the building or the demised premises through a meter
which also supplies other premises, or without a meter, then Tenant shall pay to
Landlord $ None per month for water.
SPRINKLER SYSTEM.
31. If there shall be a "sprinkler system" in the demised premises for any
period during this lease, Tenant shall pay $ None per month, for sprinkler
supervisory service. If such sprinkler system is damaged by any non-agent act of
Tenant or its agents, employees, licensees or visitors, Tenant shall restore the
system to good working condition at its own expense. If the New York Board of
Fire Underwriters, the New York Fire Insurance Exchange, the Insurance Services
Office or any governmental authority requires the installation or any alteration
to sprinkler system by reason of Tenant's particular manner of use of the
premises, including any alteration necessary to obtain the full allowance for a
sprinkler system in the fire insurance rate of Landlord, or for any other
reason, Tenant shall make such installation or alteration promptly, and at its
own expense.
HEAT, ELEVATOR, ETC.

for the performance by Tenant of the terms of this lease. Landlord may use any
part of the Security to satisfy any default of Tenant and any expenses arising
from such default, including but not limited to any damages or rent deficiency
before or after re-entry by Landlord. Tenant shall, upon demand, deposit with
Landlord the full amount so used, in order that Landlord shall have the full
security deposit on hand at all times during the term of this lease. If Tenant
shall comply fully with the terms of this lease, the security shall be returned
to Tenant after the date fixed as the end of the lease. In the event of a sale
or lease of the building containing the premises, Landlord may transfer the
security to the purchaser or tenant, and Landlord shall thereupon be released

have no legal power to assign or encumber the security herein described.

35. In the event the fixed annual rent or additional rent or any part
thereof provided to be paid by Tenant under the provisions of this lease during
the demised term shall become uncollectible or shall be reduced or required to
be reduced or refunded by virtue of any Federal, State, County or City law,
order or regulation, or by any direction of a public officer or body pursuant to
law, or the orders, rules, code or regulations of any organization or entity
formed pursuant to law, whether such organization or entity by public or
private, then Landlord, at its option, may at any time thereafter terminate this
lease, by not less than thirty (30) days' written notice to Tenant, on a date
set forth in said notice, in which event this lease and the term hereof shall
terminate and come to an end on the date fixed in said notice as if the said
date were the date originally fixed herein for the termination of the demised
term. Landlord shall not have the right so to terminate this lease if Tenant
within such period of thirty (30) days shall in writing lawfully agree that the
rentals herein reserved are a reasonable rental and agree to continue to pay
said rentals, and if such agreement by Tenant shall then be legally enforceable
by Landlord.
SHORING.
36. Tenant shall permit any person authorized to make an excavation on
land adjacent to the building containing the premises to do any work within the
premises necessary to preserve the wall of the building from injury or damage,
and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for damages or abatement of rent
by reason thereof.
EFFECT OF CONVEYANCE, ETC.
37. If the building containing the premises shall be sold, transferred or
leased, or the lease thereof transferred or sold, Landlord shall be relieved of
all future obligations and liabilities hereunder and the purchaser, transferee

of said Article and of this lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest

RIDER ANNEXED TO AND MADE
PART OF A LEASE BETWEEN
INVESTMENT PROPERTIES ASSOCIATES, LANDLORD
AND DoubleClick, Inc., TENANT
ELECTRICITY
41. Tenant agrees that Landlord may furnish electricity to Tenant on a
"submetering" basis or on a "rent inclusion" basis. Electricity and electric
service, as used herein, shall mean any element affecting the generation,
transmission, and/or distribution or redistribution of electricity, including
but not limited to services which facilitate the distribution of service.
(A). Submetering: If and so long as Landlord provides electricity to the
demised premises on a submetering basis, Tenant covenants and agrees to purchase
the same from Landlord or Landlord's designated agent at charges, terms and
rates set, from time to time, during the term of this lease by Landlord but not
more than those specified in the service classification in effect on January 1,
1970 pursuant to which Landlord then purchased electric current from the public
utility corporation serving the part of the city where the building is located:
provided however, said charges shall be increased in the same percentage as any
percentage increase in the billing to Landlord for electricity for the entire
building, by reason of increase in Landlord's electric rates or service
classifications, subsequent to January 1, 1970, and so as to reflect any
increase in Landlord's electric charges, including changes in market prices for
electricity from utilities and/or other providers, in fuel adjustments, or by
taxes or charges of any kind imposed on Landlord`s electricity purchases or
redistribution, or for any other such reason, subsequent to said date. Any such
percentage increase in Landlord's billing for electricity due to changes in
rates, service classifications, or market prices, shall be computed by the
application of the average consumption (energy and demand) of electricity for
the entire building for the twelve (12) full months immediately prior to the
rate and/or service classification change, or any changed methods of or rules on
billing for same, applied on a consistent basis to the new rate and/or service
classification or market price, and to the service classification and rate in
effect on January 1, 1970. If the average consumption of electricity for the
entire building for said prior twelve (12) months cannot reasonably be applied
and used with respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then the
percentage shall be computed by the use of the average consumption (energy and
demand) for the entire building for the first three (3) months after such
change, projected to a full twelve (12) months, so as to reflect the different
seasons: and that same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to the
service classification and rate in effect on January 1, 1970. Where more than
one meter measures the service of Tenant in the building, the service rendered
through each meter may be computed and billed separately in accordance with the
rates herein specified. Bills therefore shall be rendered at such times as
Landlord may elect and the amount, as computed from a meter, shall be deemed to
be, and be paid as, additional rent. In the event that such bills are not paid
within five (5) days after the same are rendered. Landlord may, without further
notice, discontinue the service of electric current to the demised premises
without releasing Tenant from any liability under this lease and without
Landlord or Landlord's agent incurring any liability for any damage or loss
sustained by lessee by such
<PAGE>
discontinuance of service. If any tax is imposed upon Landlord's receipt from
the sale, resale or redistribution of electricity or gas or telephone service to
Tenant by any Federal, State, or Municipal authority. Tenant covenants and
agrees that where permitted by law, Tenant's pro-rata share of such taxes shall
be passed on to and included in the bill of, and paid by, Tenant to Landlord.
(B). Rent Inclusion: If and so long as Landlord provides electricity to
the demised premises on a rent inclusion basis, Tenant agrees that the fixed
annual rent shall be increased by the amount of the Electricity Rent Inclusion
Factor ("ERIF"), as hereinafter defined. Tenant acknowledges and agrees (i) that
the the fixed annual rent hereinabove set forth in this lease does not yet, but
is to include an ERIF of $2.95 per rentable square foot to compensate Landlord
for electrical wiring and other installations necessary for, and for its
obtaining and making available to Tenant the redistribution of electric current
as an additional service; and (ii) that said ERIF, which shall be subject to
periodic adjustments as hereinafter provided, has been partially based upon an
estimate of the Tenant's connected electrical load, in whatever manner delivered
to Tenant, which shall be deemed to be the demand (KW), and hours of use
thereof, which shall be deemed to be the energy (KWH), for ordinary lighting and
light office equipment and the operation of the usual small business machines,
including Xerox or other copying machines (such lighting and equipment are
hereinafter called "Ordinary Equipment") during ordinary business hours
("ordinary business hours" shall be deemed to mean 50 hours per week), with
Landlord providing an average connected load of 4 1/2 watts of electricity for
all purposes per rentable square foot. Any installation and use of equipment
other than Ordinary Equipment and/or any connected load and/or energy usage by
Tenant in excess of the foregoing shall result in adjustment of the ERIF as
hereinafter provided. For purposes of this lease the rentable square foot area
of the presently demised premises shall be deemed to be 6,439 square feet.
If the cost to Landlord of electricity shall have been, or shall be,
increased or decreased subsequent to May 1, 1996 (whether such change occurs
prior to or during the term of this Lease), by change in Landlord's electric
rates or service classifications, or electricity charges, including changes in
market prices, or by any increase, subsequent to the last such electric rate or
service classification change or market price change, in fuel adjustments or
charges of any kind, or by taxes, imposed on Landlord's electricity purchases or
on Landlord's electricity redistribution, or for any other such reason, then the
aforesaid ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent shall be changed in the same
percentage as any such change in cost due to changes in electric rates, service
classifications or market prices, and, also Tenant's payment obligation, for
electricity redistribution, shall change from time to time so as to reflect any
such increase in fuel adjustments or charges, and such taxes. Any such
percentage change in Landlord's cost due to change in Landlord's electric rates
or service classifications or market prices shall be computed on the basis of
the average consumption of electricity for the building for the twelve full
months immediately prior to the rate change or other such changes in cost,
energy and demand, and any changed methods of or rules on billing for same,
applied on a consistent basis to the new electric rate or service classification
or market price and to the immediately prior existing electric rate or service
classification or market price. If the average consumption (energy and demand)
for the entire building for said prior (12) months cannot reasonably be applied
and used with respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then the
percentage increase shall be computed by the use of the average consumption
(energy and demand) for the entire building for the first three (3) months after
such change, projected to a full twelve (12) months, so as to reflect the
different seasons; and that same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to
the rate and/or service classification or market price which existed immediately
prior to the change. The parties agree that a reputable, independent electrical
consultant firm, selected by Landlord. ("Landlord's electrical consultant"),
shall determine the percentage change for the changes in ERIF due to Landlord's
changed costs, and that Landlord's
<PAGE>
electrical consultant may from time to time make surveys in the demised premises
of the electrical equipment and fixtures and use of current. (i) If such survey
shall reflect a connected electrical load in the demised premises in excess of 4
1/2 watts of electricity for all purposes per rentable square foot and/or energy
usage in excess of ordinary business hours (each such excess hereinafter called
"excess electricity") then the connected electrical load and/or the hours of use
portion(s) of the then existing ERIF shall be increased by an amount which is
equal to a fraction of the then exisiting ERIF, the numerator of which is the
excess electricity (i.e. excess connected load and/or excess usage) and the
denominator of which is the connected load and/or the energy usage which was the
basis of the then existing ERIF. Such fractions shall be determined by
Landlord's electrical consultant. The fixed annual rent shall then be
appropriately adjusted, effective as of the date of any such change in connected
load and/or usage, as disclosed by said survey. (ii) If such survey shall
disclose installation and use of other than Ordinary Equipment, then effective
as of the date of said survey, there shall be added to the ERIF portion of fixed
annual rent (computed and fixed as hereinbefore described) an additional amount
equal to what would be paid under the SC-4 Rate I Service Classification in
effect on May 1, 1996 (and not the time-of-day rate schedule) for such load and
usage of electricity, with the connected electrical load deemed to be the demand
(KW) and the hours of use thereof deemed to be the energy (KWH), as hereinbefore
provided, (which addition to the ERIF shall be increased or decreased by all
electricity cost changes of Landlord, as hereinabove provided, from May 1, 1996
through the date of billing).
In no event, whether because of surveys, rates or cost changes, or for any
other reason, is the originally specified $2.95 per per rentable square foot
ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent (plus any net increase thereof, but not
decrease, by virtue of all electricity rate, service classification or market
price changes of Landlord subsequent to May 1, 1996) to be reduced.
(C). General Conditions: The determinations by Landlord's electrical
consultant shall be binding and conclusive on Landlord and Tenant from and after
the delivery of copies of such determinations to Landlord and Tenant, unless,
within fifteen (15) days after delivery thereof, Tenant disputes such
determination. If Tenant so disputes the determination, it shall, at its own
expense, obtain from a reputable, independent electrical consultant its own
determinations in accordance with the provisions of this Article. Tenant's
consultant and Landlord's consultant then shall seek to agree. If they cannot
agree within thirty (30) days they shall choose a third reputable electrical
consultant, whose cost shall be shared equally by the parties, to make similar
determinations which shall be controlling. (If they cannot agree on such third
consultant within ten (10) days, than either party may apply to the Supreme
Court in the County of New York for such appointment.) However, pending such
controlling determinations. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of
additional rent or ERIF in accordance with the determinations of Landlord's
electrical consultant. If the controlling determinations differ from Landlord's
electrical consultant, then the parties shall promptly make adjustment for any
deficiency owed by Tenant or overage paid by Tenant.
At the option of Landlord. Tenant agrees to purchase from Landlord or its
agents all lamps and bulbs used in the demised premises and to pay for the cost
of installation thereof. Supplementing Article 35 hereof, if all or part of the
submetering additional rent or the ERIF payable in acccordance with Subdivision
(A) or (B) of this Article becomes uncollectible or reduced or refunded by
virtue of any law, order or regulation, the parties agree that, at Landlord's
option, in lieu of submetering additional rent or ERIF, and in consideration of
Tenant's use of the building's electrical distribution system and receipt of
redistributed electricity and payment by Landlord of consultant's fees and other
redistribution costs, the fixed annual rental rate(s) to be paid under this
lease shall be increased by an
<PAGE>
alternative charge" which shall be a sum equal to $2.95 per year per rentable
square foot of the demised premises, changed in the same percentage as any
increases in the cost to Landlord for electricity for the entire building
subsequent to May 1, 1996, because of electric rate, service classification or
market price changes, such percentage change to be computed as in Subdivision
(B) provided.
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage or expense
which Tenant may sustain or incur if either the quantity or character of
electric service is changed or is no longer available or suitable for Tenant's
requirements. Tenant covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric
current shall never exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the building or
wiring installation. Tenant agrees not to connect any additional electrical
equipment to the building electric distribution system, other than lamps,
typewriters and other small office machines which consume comparable amounts of
electricity, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld. Any riser or risers to supply Tenant's electrical
requirements, upon written request of Tenant, will be installed by Landlord, at
the sole cost and expense of Tenant, if, in Landlord's sole judgment, the same
are necessary and will not cause permanent damage or injury to the building or
demised premises or cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition or entail
excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or expense or interfere with or
disturb other tenants or occupants. In addition to the installation of such
riser or risers, Landlord will also at the sole cost and expense of Tenant,
install all other equipment proper and necessary in connection therewith subject
to the aforesaid terms and conditions. The parties acknowledge that they
understand that it is anticipated that electric rates, charges, etc., may be
changed by virtue of time-of-day rates or changes in other methods of billing,
and/or electricity purchases and the redistribtition thereof, and fluctuation in
the market price of electricity, and that the references in the foregoing
paragragraphs to changes in methods of or rules on billing, are intended to
include any such changes. Anything hereinabove to the contrary notwithstanding,
in no event is the submetering additional rent or ERIF, or any "alternative
charge", to be less than an amount equal to the total of Landlord's payments to
public utilities and/or other providers for the electricity consumed by Tenant
(and any taxes thereon or on redistribution of same) plus 5% thereof for
transmission line loss, plus 15% thereof for other redistribution costs. The
Landlord reserves the right, at any time upon thirty (30) days' written notice,
to change its furnishing of electricity to Tenant from a rent inclusion basis to
a submetering basis, or vice versa, or to change to the distribution of less
than all the components of the existing service to Tenant. The Landlord reserves
the right to terminate the furnishing of electricity on a rent inclusion,
submetering, or any other basis at any time, upon thirty (30) days' written
notice to the Tenant, in which event the Tenant may make application directly to
the public utility and/or other providers for the Tenant's entire separate
supply of electric current and Landlord shall permit its wires and conduits, to
the extent available and safely capable, to be used for such purpose, but only
to the extent of Tenant's then authorized load. Any meters, risers, or other
equipment or connections necessary to furnish electricity on a submetering basis
or to enable Tenant to obtain electric current directly from such utility and/or
other providers shall be installed at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Only rigid
conduit or electricity metal tubing (EMT) will be allowed. The Landlord, upon
the expiration of the aforesaid thirty (30) days' written notice to the Tenant
may discontinue furnishing the electric current but this lease shall otherwise
remain in full force and effect. If Tenant was provided electricity on a rent
inclusion basis when it was so discontinued, then commencing when Tenant
receives such direct service and as long as Tenant shall continue to receive
such service, the fixed annual rent payable under this lease shall be reduced by
the amount of the ERIF which was payable immediately prior to such
discontinuance of electricity on a rent inclusion basis.

AND DOUBLECLICK, INC., TENANT
ELECTRICITY
41. Tenant agrees that Landlord may furnish electricity to Tenant on a
"submetering" basis or on a "rent inclusion" basis. Electricity and electric
service, as used herein, shall mean any element affecting the generation,
transmission, and/or distribution or redistribution of electricity, including
but not limited to services which facilitate the distribution of service.
(A). Submetering: If and so long as Landlord provides electricity to the
demised premises on a submetering basis, Tenant covenants and agrees to purchase
the same from Landlord or Landlord's designated agent at charges, terms and
rates set, from time to time, during the term of this lease by Landlord but not
more than those specified in the service classification in effect on January 1,
1970 pursuant to which Landlord then purchased electric current from the public
utility corporation serving the part of the city where the building is located;
provided however, said charges shall be increased in the same percentage as any
percentage increase in the billing to Landlord for electricity for the entire
building, by reason of increase in Landlord's electric rates or service
classifications, subsequent to January 1, 1970, and so as to reflect any
increase in Landlord's electric charges, including changes in market prices for
electricity from utilities and/or other providers, in fuel adjustments, or by
taxes or charges of any kind imposed on Landlord's electricity purchases or
redistribution, or for any other such reason, subsequent to said date. Any such
percentage increase in Landlord's billing for electricity due to changes in
rates, service classifications, or market prices, shall be computed by the
application of the average consumption (energy and demand) of electricity for
the entire building for the twelve (12) full months immediately prior to the
rate and/or service classification change, or any changed methods of or rules on
billing for same, applied on a consistent basis to the new rate and/or service
classification or market price, and to the service classification and rate in
effect on January 1, 1970. If the average consumption of electricity for the
entire building for said prior twelve (12) months cannot reasonably be applied
and used with respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then the
percentage shall be computed by the use of the average consumption (energy and
demand) for the entire building for the first three (3) months after such
change, projected to a full twelve (12) months, so as to reflect the different
seasons; and that same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to the
service classification and rate in effect on January 1, 1970. Where more than
one meter measures the service of Tenant in the building, the service rendered
through each meter may be computed and billed separately in accordance with the
rates herein specified. Bills therefore shall be rendered at such times as
Landlord may elect and the amount, as computed from a meter, shall be deemed to
be, and be paid as, additional rent. In the event that such bills are not paid
within five (5) days after the same are rendered. Landlord may, without further
notice, discontinue the service of electric current to the demised premises
without releasing Tenant from any liability under this lease and without
Landlord or Landlord's agent incurring any liability for any damage or loss
sustained by lessee by such
<PAGE>
discontinuance of service. If any tax is imposed upon Landlord's receipt from
the sale, resale or redistribution of electricity or gas or telephone service to
Tenant by any Federal, State, or Municipal authority. Tenant covenants and
agrees that where permitted by law, Tenant's pro-rata share of such taxes shall
be passed on to and included in the bill of, and paid by, Tenant to Landlord.
(B). Rent Inclusion: If and so long as Landlord provides electricity to
the demised premises on a rent inclusion basis, Tenant agrees that the fixed
annual rent shall be increased by the amount of the Electricity Rent Inclusion
Factor ("ERIF"), as hereinafter defined. Tenant acknowledges and agrees (i) that
the the fixed annual rent hereinabove set forth in this lease does not yet, but
is to include an ERIF of $3.15 per rentable square foot to compensate Landlord
for electrical wiring and other installations necessary for, and for its
obtaining and making available to Tenant the redistribution of electric current
as an additional service; and (ii) that said ERIF, which shall be subject to
periodic adjustments as hereinafter provided, has been partially based upon an
estimate of the Tenant's connected electrical load, in whatever manner delivered
to Tenant, which shall be deemed to be the demand (KW). and hours of use
thereof, which shall be deemed to be the energy (KWH), for ordinary lighting and
light office equipment and the operation of the usual small business machines,
including Xerox or other copying machines (such lighting and equipment are
hereinafter called "Ordinary Equipment") during ordinary business hours
("ordinary business hours" shall be deemed to mean 50 hours per week), with
Landlord providing an average connected load of 4 1/2 watts of electricity for
all purposes per rentable square foot. Any installation and use of equipment
other than Ordinary Equipment and/or any connected load and/or energy usage by
Tenant in excess of the foregoing shall result in adjustment of the ERIF as
hereinafter provided. For purposes of this lease the rentable square foot area
of the presently demised premises shall be deemed to be 3454 square feet.
If the cost to Landlord of electricity shall have been, or shall be,
increased or decreased subsequent to May 1, 1996 (whether such change occurs
prior to or during the term of this Lease), by change in Landlord's electric
rates or service classifications, or electricity charges, including changes in
market prices, or by any increase, subsequent to the last such electric rate or
service classification change or market price change, in fuel adjustments or
charges of any kind, or by taxes, imposed on Landlord's electricity purchases or
on Landlord's electricity redistribution, or for any other such reason, then the
aforesaid ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent shall be changed in the same
percentage as any such change in cost due to changes in electric rates, service
classifications or market prices, and, also Tenant's payment obligation, for
electricity redistribution, shall change from time to time so as to reflect any
such increase in fuel adjustments or charges, and such taxes. Any such
percentage change in Landlord's cost due to change in Landlord's electric rates
or service classifications or market prices shall be computed on the basis of
the average consumption of electricity for the building for the twelve full
months immediately prior to the rate change or other such changes in cost,
energy and demand, and any changed methods of or rules on billing for same,
applied on a consistent basis to the new electric rate or service classification
or market price and to the immediately prior existing electric rate or service
classification or market price. If the average consumption (energy and demand)
for the entire building for said prior (12) months cannot reasonably be applied
and used with respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then the
percentage increase shall be computed by the use of the average consumption
(energy and demand) for the entire building for the first three (3) months after
such change, projected to a full twelve (12) months, so as to reflect the
different seasons; and that same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to
the rate and/or service classification or market price which existed immediately
prior to the change. The parties agree that a reputable, independent electrical
consultant firm, selected by Landlord. ("Landlord's electrical consultant"),
shall determine the percentage change for the changes in ERIF due to Landlord's
changed costs, and that Landlord's
<PAGE>
electrical consultant may from time to time make surveys in the demised premises
of the electrical equipment and fixtures and use of current. (i) If such survey
shall reflect a connected electrical load in the demised premises in excess of 4
1/2 watts of electricity for all purposes per rentable square foot and/or energy
usage in excess of ordinary business hours (each such excess hereinafter called
"excess electricity") then the connected electrical load and/or the hours of use
portion(s) of the then existing ERIF shall be increased by an amount which is
equal to a fraction of the then exisiting ERIF, the numerator of which is the
excess electricity (i.e. excess connected load and/or excess usage) and the
denominator of which is the connected load and/or the energy usage which was the
basis of the then existing ERIF. Such fractions shall be determined by
Landlord's electrical consultant. The fixed annual rent shall then be
appropriately adjusted, effective as of the date of any such change in connected
load and/or usage, as disclosed by said survey. (ii) If such survey shall
disclose installation and use of other than Ordinary Equipment, then effective
as of the date of said survey, there shall be added to the ERIF portion of fixed
annual rent (computed and fixed as hereinbefore described) an additional amount
equal to what would be paid under the SC-4 Rate I Service Classification in
effect on May 1, 1996 (and not the time-of-day rate schedule) for such load and
usage of electricity, with the connected electrical load deemed to be the demand
(KW) and the hours of use thereof deemed to be the energy (KWH), as hereinbefore
provided, (which addition to the ERIF shall be increased or decreased by all
electricity cost changes of Landlord, as hereinabove provided, from May 1, 1996
through the date of billing).
In no event, whether because of surveys, rates or cost changes, or for any
other reason, is the originally specified $3.15 per per rentable square foot
ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent (plus any net increase thereof, but not
decrease, by virtue of all electricity rate, service classification or market
price changes of Landlord subsequent to May 1, 1996) to be reduced.
(C). General Conditions: The determinations by Landlord's electrical
consultant shall be binding and conclusive on Landlord and Tenant from and after
the delivery of copies of such determinations to Landlord and Tenant, unless,
within fifteen (15) days after delivery thereof, Tenant disputes such
determination. If Tenant so disputes the determination, it shall, at its own
expense, obtain from a reputable, independent electrical consultant its own
determinations in accordance with the provisions of this Article. Tenant's
consultant and Landlord's consultant then shall seek to agree. If they cannot
agree within thirty (30) days they shall choose a third reputable electrical
consultant, whose cost shall be shared equally by the parties, to make similar
determinations which shall be controlling. (If they cannot agree on such third
consultant within ten (10) days, than either party may apply to the Supreme
Court in the County of New York for such appointment.) However, pending such
controlling determinations. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of
additional rent or ERIF in accordance with the determinations of Landlord's
electrical consultant. If the controlling determinations differ from Landlord's
electrical consultant, then the parties shall promptly make adjustment for any
deficiency owed by Tenant or overage paid by Tenant.
At the option of Landlord. Tenant agrees to purchase from Landlord or its
agents all lamps and bulbs used in the demised premises and to pay for the cost
of installation thereof. Supplementing Article 35 hereof, if all or part of the
submetering additional rent or the ERIF payable in acccordance with Subdivision
(A) or (B) of this Article becomes uncollectible or reduced or refunded by
virtue of any law, order or regulation, the parties agree that, at Landlord's
option, in lieu of submetering additional rent or ERIF, and in consideration of
Tenant's use of the building's electrical distribution system and receipt of
redistributed electricity and payment by Landlord of consultant's fees and other
redistribution costs, the fixed annual rental rate(s) to be paid under this
lease shall be increased by an
<PAGE>
alternative charge" which shall be a sum equal to $3.15 per year per rentable
square foot of the demised premises, changed in the same percentage as any
increases in the cost to Landlord for electricity for the entire building
subsequent to May 1, 1996, because of electric rate, service classification or
market price changes, such percentage change to be computed as in Subdivision
(B) provided.
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage or expense
which Tenant may sustain or incur if either the quantity or character of
electric service is changed or is no longer available or suitable for Tenant's
requirements. Tenant covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric
current shall never exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the building or
wiring installation. Tenant agrees not to connect any additional electrical
equipment to the building electric distribution system, other than lamps,
typewriters and other small office machines which consume comparable amounts of
electricity, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld. Any riser or risers to supply Tenant's electrical
requirements, upon written request of Tenant, will be installed by Landlord, at
the sole cost and expense of Tenant, if, in Landlord's sole judgment, the same
are necessary and will not cause permanent damage or injury to the building or
demised premises or cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition or entail
excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or expense or interfere with or
disturb other tenants or occupants. In addition to the installation of such
riser or risers, Landlord will also at the sole cost and expense of Tenant,
install all other equipment proper and necessary in connection therewith subject
to the aforesaid terms and conditions. The parties acknowledge that they
understand that it is anticipated that electric rates, charges, etc., may be
changed by virtue of time-of-day rates or changes in other methods of billing,
and/or electricity purchases and the redistribtition thereof, and fluctuation in
the market price of electricity, and that the references in the foregoing
paragragraphs to changes in methods of or rules on billings are intended to
include any such changes. Anything hereinabove to the contrary notwithstanding,
in no event is the submetering additional rent or ERIF, or any "alternative
charge", to be less than an amount equal to the total of Landlord's payments to
public utilities and/or other providers for the electricity consumed by Tenant
(and any taxes thereon or on redistribution of same) plus 5% thereof for
transmission line loss, plus 15% thereof for other redistribution costs. The
Landlord reserves the right, at any time upon thirty (30) days' written notice,
to change its furnishing of electricity to Tenant from a rent inclusion basis to
a submetering basis, or vice versa, or to change to the distribution of less
than all the components of the existing service to Tenant. The Landlord reserves
the right to terminate the furnishing of electricity on a rent inclusion,
submetering, or any other basis at any time, upon thirty (30) days' written
notice to the Tenant, in which event the Tenant may make application directly to
the public utility and/or other providers for the Tenant's entire separate
supply of electric current and Landlord shall permit its wires and conduits, to
the extent available and safely capable, to be used for such purpose, but only
to the extent of Tenant's then authorized load. Any meters, risers, or other
equipment or connections necessary to furnish electricity on a submetering basis
or to enable Tenant to obtain electric current directly from such utility and/or

such service, the fixed annual rent payable under this lease shall be reduced by
the amount of the ERIF which was payable immediately prior to such
discontinuance of electricity on a rent inclusion basis.
