Lease Forms

  • Start a state-specific lease for the rental of commercial property. Specify the term and rent due, as well as whether the landlord or tenant is responsible for property taxes, insurance, and maintenance and repairs.
  • When a tenant vacates commercial property before the lease term has expired, it may be able to rent the premises to a third party. The tenant would be the sublessor and the third party would be the sublessee. Besides preparing a sublease, both parties will want to review the provisions for assignment or subletting in the original lease agreement between the landlord and the sublessor.
  • Tenants of residential property should prepare a sublease agreement if they are seeking to sublease a room or the entire apartment or house to a third party. All parties should review the original lease agreement to see if there are any restrictions on subletting or assigning the premises.
  • Triple net leases are a type of commercial leases where the tenant has to pay for property taxes, insurance, utilities, and maintenance, in addition to the monthly rent.
  • When renting an office space, tenants should understand the amount of the rent and duration of the lease. Other important terms include whether the space can be subleased, which parties are responsible for maintenance, and whether any furniture and furnishings will be provided.

Landlord for the common use of tenants and others, such as sidewalks, unreserved
parking areas, common corridors, elevator foyers, restrooms, vending areas and
lobby areas (the "Common Areas").

III.  ADJUSTMENT OF COMMENCEMENT DATE; POSSESSION.

      A.    The Landlord Work shall be deemed to be "Substantially Complete" on
            the later of (i) the date that all Landlord Work has been performed
            substantially in accordance with the Work Letter, other than any
            details of construction, mechanical adjustment or any other similar
            matter, the noncompletion of which does not materially interfere
            with Tenant's use of the Premises; and (ii) the date Landlord
            receives from the appropriate governmental authorities, with respect
            to the Landlord Work performed by Landlord or its contractors in the
            Premises, all approvals necessary for the occupancy of the Premises.
            However, if Landlord is delayed in the performance of the Landlord
            Work as a result of any Tenant Delay(s) (defined below), the
            Landlord Work shall be deemed to be Substantially Complete on the
            date that Landlord could reasonably have been expected to
            Substantially Complete the Landlord Work absent any Tenant Delay.
            "Tenant Delay" means any act or omission of Tenant or its agents,
            employees, vendors or contractors that actually delays the
            Substantial Completion of the Landlord Work, including, without
            limitation: (1) Tenant's failure to furnish information or approvals
            within any time period specified in this Lease, including the
            failure to prepare or approve preliminary or final plans by any
            applicable due date; (2) Tenant's selection of equipment or
            materials that have long lead times after first being informed by
            Landlord that the selection may result in a delay; (3) changes
            requested or made by Tenant to previously approved plans and
            specifications; (4) performance of work in the Premises by Tenant or
            Tenant's contractor(s) during the performance of the Landlord Work;
            or (5) if the performance of any portion of the Landlord Work
            depends on the prior or simultaneous performance of work by Tenant,
            a delay by Tenant or Tenant's contractor(s) in the completion of
            such work. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to notify Tenant,
            orally or in writing, of any circumstances of which Landlord is
            aware that have caused or may cause a Tenant Delay, so that Tenant
            may take whatever action is appropriate to minimize or prevent such
            Tenant Delay. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord fails to
            notify Tenant of any Tenant Delay addressed in Subsections III.A.3.,
            III.A.4. or III.A.5. within 2 days after the date Landlord knew of
            such Tenant Delay, Tenant shall not be responsible for any such
            Tenant Delay with respect to the period of time commencing 3 days
            after the date when Landlord knew that such Tenant Delay existed and
            ending on the date that Landlord notified Tenant of such Tenant
            Delay.

      B.    Subject to Landlord's obligation, if any, to perform Landlord Work
            and Landlord's obligations under Section IX.B., the Premises are
            accepted by Tenant in "as is" condition and configuration. By taking
            possession of the Premises, Tenant agrees that the Premises are in
            good order and satisfactory condition, and that there are no
            representations or warranties by Landlord regarding the condition of
            the Premises or the Building other than as expressly stated in this
            Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
            Tenant shall have 11 months from the completion of Landlord Work in
            which to discover and notify Landlord of any latent defects in
            Landlord's Work. Landlord shall be responsible for the correction of
            any latent defects with respect to which it received timely notice
            from Tenant. Tenant's acceptance of the Premises shall be subject to
            Landlord's obligation to correct portions of the Landlord Work as
            set forth on a construction punch list prepared by Landlord and
            Tenant in accordance with the terms hereof. Within 15 days after
            Substantial Completion of the Landlord Work, Landlord and Tenant
            shall together conduct an inspection of the Premises and prepare a
            "punch list" setting forth any portions of the Landlord Work that
            are not

                                       3

<PAGE>

            in conformity with the Landlord Work as required by the terms of
            this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the request of
            Landlord, such construction punch list shall be mutually prepared by
            Landlord and Tenant prior to the date on which Tenant first begins
            to move its furniture, equipment or other personal property into the
            Premises. Landlord, as part of the Landlord Work, shall use good
            faith efforts to correct all such items within a commercially
            reasonable time period following the completion of the preparation
            of the punch list. If Landlord is delayed delivering possession of
            the Premises or any other space due to the holdover or unlawful
            possession of such space by any party, Landlord shall use reasonable
            efforts to obtain possession of the space. If Landlord is not
            required to Substantially Complete Landlord Work before the
            Commencement Date, the Commencement Date shall be postponed until
            the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant free
            from occupancy by any party, and the Termination Date, at the option
            of Landlord, may be postponed by an equal number of days. If
            Landlord is required to Substantially Complete Landlord Work before
            the Commencement Date, the Commencement Date and Termination Date
            shall be determined by Section I.G.

            If has Landlord not delivered possession of the Premises to Tenant
            on or before January 16, 2002 (the "Outside Delivery Date"), and if
            such failure is not deemed and event of "Force Majeure" as that term
            is defined in Section 9 of that certain Asset Purchase and Sale
            Agreement by and between Tenant and the City of Richmond, a
            municipal corporation, dated on or about November 21, 2001, which
            agreement respects Tenant's sale of personal assets to the City of
            Richmond (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), and Tenant is required to
            and does provide to the City of Richmond liquidated damages as
            described in Section 17 of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Tenant
            shall be entitled to a rent abatement following the Commencement
            Date of $750.00 for every day in the period beginning the day
            following the Outside Delivery Date and ending on the Commencement
            Date, up to an amount equal to the lesser of the following (the
            "Penalty"): (x) the damages actually suffered by Tenant pursuant to
            Section 9(c) of the Asset Purchase Agreement, and (y) $10,000.00.
            Such Penalty shall be evidenced by written documentation reasonably
            satisfactory to Landlord and delivered to Landlord on or before ten
            (10) days following the Commencement Date. In the event that Tenant
            fails provide such written evidence to Landlord as described in the
            foregoing sentence, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its right
            to the Penalty and Landlord shall have no obligation to Tenant with
            respect to the same. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that:
            (i) Landlord's ability to deliver possession of the Premises to
            Tenant shall take into consideration the effect of any Tenant Delays
            (and to the extent any Tenant Delays have caused a delay in delivery
            of possession of the Premises to Tenant beyond the Outside Delivery
            Date, the date of Landlord's delivery of possession of the Premises
            shall be deemed to be the date such delivery would have occurred but
            for any such Tenant Delay); and (ii) the Outside Delivery Date shall
            be postponed by the number of days Landlord's delivery of possession
            of the Premises is delayed due to events of Force Majeure. Tenant
            shall not be entitled to receive any portion of the Penalty in the
            event that Tenant terminates this Lease as provided below. Tenant
            hereby represents and warrants that the Asset Purchase Agreement is
            fully executed by Tenant and the City of Richmond in the form
            attached hereto as EXHIBIT H.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commencement Date has not
            occurred on or before the Required Completion Date (defined below),
            Tenant, as its sole remedy, may terminate this Lease by giving
            Landlord written notice of termination on or before the earlier to
            occur of: (i) 5 Business Days after the Required Completion Date;
            and (ii) the Commencement Date. In such event, this Lease shall be
            deemed null and void and of no further force and effect and Landlord
            shall promptly refund any prepaid rent and Security Deposit
            previously advanced by Tenant under this Lease and, so long as
            Tenant has not previously defaulted under any of its obligations
            under the Work Letter, the parties hereto shall have no further
            responsibilities or obligations to each other with respect to this
            Lease. The "Required Completion Date" shall mean February 28, 2002.
            Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that: (i) the
            determination of the Commencement Date shall take into consideration
            the effect of any Tenant Delays; and (ii) the Required Completion
            Date shall be postponed by the number of days the Commencement Date
            is delayed due to events of Force Majeure. Notwithstanding anything
            herein to the contrary, if Landlord determines in good

                                       4

<PAGE>

            faith that it will be unable to cause the Commencement Date to occur
            by the Required Completion Date, Landlord shall have the right to
            immediately cease its performance of the Landlord Work and provide
            Tenant with written notice (the "Completion Date Extension Notice")
            of such inability, which Completion Date Extension Notice shall set
            forth the date on which Landlord reasonably believes that the
            Commencement Date will occur. Upon receipt of the Completion Date
            Extension Notice, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this
            Lease by providing written notice of termination to Landlord within
            2 Business Days after the date of the Completion Date Extension
            Notice. If Tenant does not terminate this Lease within such 2
            Business Day period, the Required Completion Date automatically
            shall be amended to be the date set forth in Landlord's Completion
            Date Extension Notice and Landlord shall promptly recommence
            performance of the Landlord Work.

      C.    If Tenant takes possession of the Premises before the Commencement
            Date, such possession shall be subject to the terms and conditions
            of this Lease and Tenant shall pay Rent (defined in Section IV.A.)
            to Landlord for each day of possession before the Commencement Date.
            However, except for the cost of services requested by Tenant (e.g.
            freight elevator usage), Tenant shall not be required to pay Rent
            for any days of possession before the Commencement Date during which
            Tenant, with the approval of Landlord, is in possession of the
            Premises for the sole purpose of performing improvements or
            installing furniture, equipment or other personal property.

IV.   RENT.

      A.    Payments. As consideration for this Lease, Tenant shall pay
            Landlord, without any setoff or deduction (subject to the Penalty
            described in Section III.B above), the total amount of Base Rent and
            Additional Rent when due under the terms of this Lease. "Additional
            Rent" means all sums (exclusive of Base Rent) that Tenant is
            required to pay Landlord under the terms of this Lease. Additional
            Rent and Base Rent are sometimes collectively referred to as "Rent".
            Tenant shall pay and be liable for all rental, sales and use taxes
            (but excluding income taxes), if any, imposed upon or measured by
            Rent under applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
            contrary, the taxes described in the immediately preceding sentence
            shall not be included in the "Taxes" defined in IV.D. below. Base
            Rent and recurring monthly charges of Additional Rent shall be due
            and payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month
            during the Term without notice or demand, provided that the
            installment of Base Rent for the first full calendar month of the
            Term shall be payable upon the execution of this Lease by Tenant.
            All other items of Rent shall be due and payable by Tenant on or
            before 30 days after delivery of billing by Landlord. All payments
            of Rent shall be by good and sufficient check or by other means
            (such as automatic debit or electronic transfer) acceptable to
            Landlord. If Tenant fails to pay any item or installment of Rent
            when due, Tenant shall pay Landlord an administration fee equal to
            5% of the past due Rent, provided that Tenant shall be entitled to a
            grace period of 5 days for the first 2 late payments of Rent in a
            given calendar year. If the Term commences on a day other than the
            first day of a calendar month or terminates on a day other than the
            last day of a calendar month, the monthly Base Rent and Tenant's Pro
            Rata Share of any Tax Excess (defined in Section IV.B.) or Expense
            Excess (defined in Section IV.B.) for the month shall be prorated
            based on the number of days in such calendar month. Landlord's
            acceptance of less than the correct amount of Rent shall be
            considered a payment on account of the earliest Rent due. No
            endorsement or statement on a check or letter accompanying a check
            or payment shall be considered an accord and satisfaction, and
            either party may accept the check or payment without prejudice to
            that party's right to recover the balance or pursue other available
            remedies. Tenant's covenant to pay Rent is independent of every
            other covenant in this Lease. Tenant is entitled to certain Rent
            abatement opportunities as expressly provided in, and upon, the
            terms and conditions of this Lease.

      B.    Expense Excess and Tax Excess, Tenant shall pay Tenant's Pro Rata
            Share of the amount, if any, by which Expenses (defined in Section
            IV.C.) for each calendar year during the Term after the Base Year
            exceed Expenses for the Base Year (the "Expense Excess") and also
            the amount, if any, by which Taxes (defined in Section IV.D.) for
            each calendar year during the Term after the Base

                                       5

<PAGE>

            Year exceed Taxes for the Base Year (the "Tax Excess"). If Expenses
            and/or Taxes in any calendar year after the Base Year decrease below
            the amount of Expenses and/or Taxes for the Base Year, Tenant's Pro
            Rata Share of Expenses and/or Taxes, as the case may be, for that
            calendar year shall be $0. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a good
            faith written estimate of the Expense Excess and of the Tax Excess
            for each calendar year during the Term. Notwithstanding anything in
            this Lease to the contrary, in no event shall the component of
            Expenses for any Lease year consisting of electrical costs be less
            than the component of Base Year Expenses consisting of electrical
            costs. On or before January 1, 2003, and on or before the first day
            of each calendar month thereafter during the Term, Tenant shall pay
            to Landlord a monthly installment equal to one-twelfth of Tenant's
            Pro Rata Share of Landlord's written estimate of the Expense Excess
            and one-twelfth of Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Landlord's written
            estimate of the Tax Excess. If Landlord determines that its good
            faith written estimate of the Expense Excess or of the Tax Excess
            was incorrect by a material amount, Landlord may provide Tenant with
            a revised written estimate. After its receipt of the revised written
            estimate, Tenant's monthly payments shall be based upon the revised
            written estimate. If Landlord does not provide Tenant with a written
            estimate of the Expense Excess or of the Tax Excess by January 1 of
            a calendar year, Tenant shall continue to pay monthly installments
            based on the previous year's estimate(s) until Landlord provides
            Tenant with the new written estimate. Upon delivery of the new
            estimate, an adjustment shall be made for any month for which Tenant
            paid monthly installments based on the previous year's written
            estimate(s). Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of any
            underpayment within 30 days after receipt of the new written
            estimate. Any overpayment shall be refunded to Tenant within 30 days
            or credited against the next due future installment(s) of Additional
            Rent.

            As soon as is practical following the end of each calendar year,
            Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a statement of the actual
            Expenses and Expense Excess and the actual Taxes and Tax Excess for
            the prior calendar year. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to
            furnish the statement of actual Expenses on or before June 1 of the
            calendar year immediately following the calendar year to which the
            statement applies. Such statement shall contain reasonable detail.
            If the estimated Expense Excess and/or estimated Tax Excess for the
            prior calendar year is more than the actual Expense Excess and/or
            actual Tax Excess, as the case may be, for the prior calendar year,
            Landlord shall apply any overpayment by Tenant against Additional
            Rent due or next becoming due, provided if the Term of this Lease
            expires or sooner terminates before the determination of the
            overpayment, Landlord shall refund any overpayment to Tenant after
            first deducting the amount of Rent due. If the estimated Expense
            Excess and/or estimated Tax Excess for the prior calendar year is
            less than the actual Expense Excess and/or actual Tax Excess, as the
            case may be, for such prior year, Tenant shall pay Landlord, within
            30 days after its receipt of the statement of Expenses and/or Taxes,
            any underpayment for the prior calendar year.

      C.    Expenses Defined. "Expenses" means all costs and expenses incurred
            in each calendar year in connection with operating, maintaining,
            repairing, and managing the Building and the Property, including,
            but not limited to:

            1.    Labor costs, including, wages, salaries, social security and
                  employment taxes, medical and other types of insurance,
                  uniforms, training, and retirement and pension plans for
                  personnel at or below the level of general manager; provided
                  that if any employee performs services in connection with the
                  Building and other buildings, costs associated with such
                  employee may be proportionately included in Expenses based on
                  the percentage of time such employee spends in connection with
                  the operation, maintenance and management of the Building.

            2.    Management fees, the cost of equipping and maintaining a
                  management office, accounting and bookkeeping services, legal
                  fees not attributable to leasing or collection activity, and
                  other administrative costs. Landlord, by itself or through an
                  affiliate, shall have the right to directly perform or provide
                  any services under this Lease (including management services).
                  However, in no event shall the management fees for the
                  Building (expressed as a percentage of gross receipts for the
                  Building) exceed the prevailing market management fees
                  (expressed as a percentage of gross

                                       6

<PAGE>

                  receipts), plus 2% of such fees, for comparable third party
                  management companies offering comparable management services
                  in office buildings similar to the Building in class, size,
                  age and location.

            3.    The cost of services provided to the Building and/or Property,
                  including amounts paid by Landlord to service providers and
                  Landlord's rental and purchase cost of parts, supplies, tools
                  and equipment.

            4.    Premiums and deductibles paid by Landlord for insurance,
                  including workers compensation, fire and extended coverage,
                  earthquake, general liability, rental loss, elevator, boiler
                  and other insurance customarily carried from time to time by
                  owners of comparable office buildings.

            5.    Electrical Costs (defined below) and charges for water, gas,
                  steam and sewer, but excluding those charges for which
                  Landlord is reimbursed by tenants or utility providers.
                  "Electrical Costs" means: (a) charges paid by Landlord for
                  electricity; (b) costs incurred in connection with an energy
                  management program for the Property; and (c) if and to the
                  extent permitted by Law, and if savings in electricity costs
                  are obtained, a fee for the services provided by Landlord in
                  connection with the selection of utility companies and the
                  negotiation and administration of contracts for electricity,
                  provided that such fee shall not exceed 50% of any savings
                  obtained by Landlord. Electrical Costs shall be adjusted as
                  follows; (i) amounts received by Landlord as reimbursement for
                  above standard electrical consumption shall be deducted from
                  Electrical Costs; (ii) the cost of electricity incurred to
                  provide overtime HVAC to specific tenants (as reasonably
                  estimated by Landlord) shall be deducted from Electrical
                  Costs; and (iii) if Tenant is billed directly for the cost of
                  Building standard electricity to the Premises as a separate
                  charge in addition to Base Rent, the cost of electricity to
                  individual tenant spaces in the Building shall be deducted
                  from Electrical Costs. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease
                  to the contrary, for purposes of determining Expenses for any
                  calendar year subsequent to the Base Year, Electrical Costs
                  shall be deemed to be the greater of Electrical Costs incurred
                  during the Base Year and Electrical Costs for the applicable
                  calendar year.

            6.    The amortized cost of capital improvements (as distinguished
                  from replacement parts or components installed in the ordinary
                  course of business) made to the Property which are: (a)
                  performed primarily to reduce operating expense costs or
                  otherwise improve the operating efficiency of the Property,
                  provided that Landlord, based on expert third party advice,
                  reasonably believes that such improvements will reduce
                  operating expense costs or improve the operating efficiency of
                  the Building; or (b) required to comply with any Laws that are
                  enacted, or first interpreted to apply to the Property, after
                  the date of this Lease. The cost of capital improvements shall
                  be amortized by Landlord over the lesser of the Payback Period
                  (defined below) or 5 years. The amortized cost of capital
                  improvements may, at Landlord's option, include actual or
                  imputed interest at the rate that Landlord would reasonably be
                  required to pay to finance the cost of the capital
                  improvement. "Payback Period" means the reasonably estimated
                  period of time that it takes for the cost savings resulting
                  from a capital improvement to equal the total cost of the
                  capital improvement.

            If Landlord incurs Expenses for the Property together with one or
            more other buildings or properties, whether pursuant to a reciprocal
            easement agreement, common area agreement or otherwise, the shared
            costs and expenses shall be equitably prorated and apportioned
            between the Property and the other buildings or properties. Expenses
            shall not include: the cost of capital improvements (except as set
            forth above); depreciation; interest (except as provided above for
            the amortization of capital improvements); amortization (except as
            set forth above); principal payments of mortgage and other
            non-operating debts of Landlord; the cost of repairs or other work
            to the extent Landlord is reimbursed by insurance (or would have
            been reimbursed by insurance had Landlord carried the insurance
            required to be carried by Landlord under this Lease) or condemnation
            proceeds; costs in connection with leasing space in the Building,
            including brokerage commissions, brochures and marketing supplies,
            legal fees

                                       7

<PAGE>

            in negotiating and preparing lease documents, and construction,
            improvement and decorating costs in preparing space for initial
            occupancy by a specific tenant; lease concessions, including rental
            abatements and construction allowances, granted to specific tenants;
            costs incurred in connection with the sale, financing or refinancing
            of the Building, including brokerage commissions, attorneys' and
            accountants' fees, closing costs, title insurance premiums, transfer
            taxes and interest charges; fines, interest and penalties incurred
            due to the late payment of Taxes (defined in Section IV.D), or
            Expenses or any other sums required to be paid by Landlord;
            organizational expenses associated with the creation and operation
            of the entity which constitutes Landlord; or any penalties or
            damages that Landlord pays to Tenant under this Lease or to other
            tenants in the Building under their respective leases. The following
            items are also excluded from Expenses:

            (a)   Sums (other than management fees, it being agreed that the
                  management fees included in Expenses are as described in
                  Section IV.C.2 above) paid to subsidiaries or other affiliates
                  of Landlord for services on or to the Property, Building
                  and/or Premises, but only to the extent that the costs of such
                  services exceed the competitive cost for such services
                  rendered by persons or entities of similar skill, competence
                  and experience.

            (b)   Any fines, costs, penalties or interest resulting from the
                  negligence or willful misconduct of the Landlord or its
                  agents, contractors, or employees.

            (c)   Advertising and promotional expenditures.

            (d)   Landlord's charitable and political contributions.

            (e)   Ground lease rental.

            (f)   Attorney's fees and other expenses incurred in connection with
                  negotiations or disputes with prospective tenants or tenants
                  or other occupants of the Building.

            (g)   The cost or expense of any services or benefits provided
                  generally to other tenants in the Building and not provided or

            (h)   All costs of purchasing or leasing major sculptures, paintings

                  decorations purchased or leased by Landlord for display in the
                  Common Areas of the Building).

            (i)   Any expenses for which Landlord has received actual
                  reimbursement (other than through Expenses).

            (j)   Costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the correction
                  of defects in design and original construction of the Building
                  or Property.

            (k)   Expenses for the replacement of any item covered under
                  warranty, unless Landlord has not received payment under such
                  warranty and it would not be fiscally prudent to pursue legal
                  action to collect on such warranty.

            (l)   Fines or penalties incurred as a result of violation by
                  Landlord of any applicable Laws.

            (m)   Any cost or expense related to removal, cleaning, abatement or
                  remediation of hazardous substances, including, without
                  limitation Hazardous Materials (as defined in Rule 12 of the
                  rules and regulations of the Building attached as EXHIBIT B)
                  in or about the Building, Common Area or Property, including,
                  without limitation, hazardous substances in the ground water
                  or soil, except to the extent caused by the release or
                  emission of hazardous materials

                  by Tenant or except to the extent such removal, cleaning,
                  abatement or remediation is related to the general repair and
                  maintenance of the Building, Common Area or Property; provided
                  that with respect to the foregoing, Tenant's Pro Rata Share of
                  any such item included in Expenses and charged to Tenant shall
                  in no event exceed $10,000.00 in any calendar year.

            (n)   The Maximum Amount contributed in connection with the
                  performance of Landlord's Work described in Section 1 of the
                  Work Letter attached hereto as EXHIBIT D.

            If the Building is not at least 95% occupied during any calendar
            year or if Landlord is not supplying services to at least 95% of the
            total Rentable Square Footage of the Building at any time during a
            calendar year, Expenses shall, at Landlord's option, be determined
            as if the Building had been 95% occupied and Landlord had been
            supplying services to 95% of the Rentable Square Footage of the
            Building during that calendar year. If Tenant pays for its Pro Rata
            Share of Expenses based on increases over a "Base Year" and Expenses
            for a calendar year are determined as provided in the prior
            sentence, Expenses for the Base Year shall also be determined as if
            the Building had been 95% occupied and Landlord had been supplying
            services to 95% of the Rentable Square Footage of the Building. The
            extrapolation of Expenses under this Section shall be performed by
            appropriately adjusting the cost of those components of Expenses
            that are impacted by changes in the occupancy of the Building.

      D.    Taxes Defined. "Taxes" shall mean: (1) all real estate taxes and
            other assessments on the Building and/or Property, including, but
            not limited to, assessments for special improvement districts and
            building improvement districts, taxes and assessments levied in
            substitution or supplementation in whole or in part of any such
            taxes and assessments and the Property's share of any real estate
            taxes and assessments under any reciprocal easement agreement,
            common area agreement or similar agreement as to the Property; (2)
            all personal property taxes for property that is owned by Landlord
            and used in connection with the operation, maintenance and repair of
            the Property; and (3) all commercially reasonable costs and fees
            incurred in connection with seeking reductions in any tax
            liabilities described in (1) and (2), including, without limitation,
            any such costs incurred by Landlord for compliance, review and
            appeal of tax liabilities. Without limitation, Taxes shall not
            include any income, capital levy, franchise, capital stock, gift,
            estate or inheritance tax. If an assessment is payable in
            installments, Taxes for the year shall include the amount of the
            installment and any interest due and payable during that year. For
            all other real estate taxes, Taxes for that year shall, at
            Landlord's election, include either the amount accrued, assessed or
            otherwise imposed for the year or the amount due and payable for
            that year, provided that Landlord's election shall be applied
            consistently throughout the Term. If a change in Taxes is obtained
            for any year of the Term during which Tenant paid Tenant's Pro Rata
            Share of any Tax Excess, then Taxes for that year will be
            retroactively adjusted and Landlord shall provide Tenant with a
            credit, if any, based on the adjustment. Likewise, if a change is
            obtained for Taxes for the Base Year, Taxes for the Base Year shall
            be restated and the Tax Excess for all subsequent years shall be
            recomputed. Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of Tenant's Pro
            Rata Share of any such increase in the Tax Excess within 30 days
            after Tenant's receipt of a statement from Landlord. Notwithstanding
            anything to the contrary contained herein, Taxes shall not include
            Taxes relating to period prior to the Commencement Date or after the
            expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

      E.    Audit Rights. Tenant may, within 90 days after receiving Landlord's
            statement of Expenses, give Landlord written notice ("Review
            Notice") that Tenant intends to review Landlord's records of the
            Expenses for that calendar year. Within a reasonable time after
            receipt of the Review Notice, Landlord shall make all pertinent
            records available for inspection that are reasonably necessary for
            Tenant to conduct its review. If any records are maintained at a
            location other than the office of the Building, Tenant may either
            inspect the records at such other location or pay for the reasonable
            cost of copying and shipping the records. If Tenant retains an agent
            to review Landlord's records, the agent must be with a licensed CPA
            firm. Tenant shall be solely responsible for all costs, expenses and
            fees incurred for the audit. However, notwithstanding the

                                       9

<PAGE>

            foregoing, if Landlord and Tenant determine that Expenses for the
            Building for the year in question were less than stated by more than
            5%, Landlord, within 30 days after its receipt of paid invoices
            therefor from Tenant, shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable
            amounts paid by Tenant to third parties in connection with such
            review by Tenant. Within 60 days after the records are made
            available to Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord
            written notice (an "Objection Notice") stating in reasonable detail
            any objection to Landlord's statement of Expenses for that year. If
            Tenant fails to give Landlord an Objection Notice within the 60 day
            period or fails to provide Landlord with a Review Notice within the
            90 day period described above, absent fraud by Landlord, Tenant
            shall be deemed to have approved Landlord's statement of Expenses
            and shall be barred from raising any claims regarding the Expenses
            for that year. If Tenant provides Landlord with a timely Objection
            Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to
            resolve any issues raised in Tenant's Objection Notice. If Landlord
            and Tenant determine that Expenses for the calendar year are less
            than reported, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit against
            the next installment of Rent in the amount of the overpayment by
            Tenant (or if this Lease has terminated, payment of the differential
            to Tenant). Likewise, if Landlord and Tenant determine that Expenses
            for the calendar year are greater than reported, Tenant shall pay
            Landlord the amount of any underpayment within 30 days. The records
            obtained by Tenant shall be treated as confidential. In no event
            shall Tenant be permitted to examine Landlord's records or to
            dispute any statement of Expenses unless Tenant has paid and
            continues to pay all Rent when due.

V.    COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS; USE.

            The Premises shall be used only for the Permitted Use and for no
            other use whatsoever. Tenant shall not use or permit the use of the
            Premises for any purpose which is illegal, dangerous to persons or
            property or which, in Landlord's reasonable opinion, unreasonably
            disturbs any other tenants of the Building or interferes with the
            operation of the Building. Tenant shall comply with all Laws,
            including the Americans with Disabilities Act, regarding the
            operation of Tenant's business and the use, condition, configuration
            and occupancy of the Premises. Landlord, at its sole cost and
            expense (except to the extent properly included in Expenses), shall
            be responsible for correcting any violations of Title III of the
            Americans with Disabilities Act with respect to the Premises and the
            Common Areas of the Building, provided that Landlord's obligation
            with respect to the Premises shall be limited to violations that
            arise out of the Landlord Work and/or the condition of the Premises
            prior to the installation of any furniture, equipment and other
            personal property of Tenant subsequent to the date of this Lease.
            Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to
            contest any alleged violation in good faith, including, without
            limitation, the right to apply for and obtain a waiver or deferment
            of compliance, the right to assert any and all defenses allowed by
            Law and the right to appeal any decisions, judgments or rulings to
            the fullest extent permitted by Law. Landlord, after the exhaustion
            of any and all rights to appeal or contest, will make all repairs,
            additions, alterations or improvements necessary to comply with the
            terms of any final order or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
            Tenant, not Landlord, shall be responsible for the correction of any
            violations that arise out of or in connection with any claims
            brought under any provision of the Americans with Disabilities Act
            other than Title III, the specific nature of Tenant's business in
            the Premises (other than general office use), the acts or omissions
            of Tenant, its agents, employees or contractors, Tenant's
            arrangement of any furniture, equipment or other property in the
            Premises, any repairs, alterations, additions or improvements
            performed by or on behalf of Tenant (other than the Landlord Work)
            and any design or configuration of the Premises specifically
            requested by Tenant after being informed that such design or
            configuration may not be in strict compliance with the ADA. Tenant,
            within 10 days after receipt, shall provide Landlord with copies of
            any notices it receives regarding a violation or alleged violation
            of any Laws. Tenant shall comply with the rules and regulations of
            the Building attached as Exhibit B and such other reasonable rules
            and regulations adopted by Landlord from time to time. Tenant shall
            also cause its agents, contractors, subcontractors, employees,
            customers, and subtenants to comply with all rules and regulations.
            Landlord shall not knowingly discriminate against Tenant in
            Landlord's enforcement of the rules and regulations. The rules and
            regulations shall be generally applicable, and generally applied in
            the same

                                       10

<PAGE>

            manner, to all tenants of the Building. If there is a conflict
            between.this Lease and any rules and regulations enacted after the
            date of this Lease, the terms of this Lease shall control.

VI.   SECURITY DEPOSIT.

      The Security Deposit shall be delivered to Landlord upon the execution of
this Lease by Tenant and shall be held by Landlord without liability for
interest (unless required by Law) as security for the performance of Tenant's
obligations. The Security Deposit is not an advance payment of Rent or a measure
of Tenant's liability for damages. Landlord may, from time to time, without
prejudice to any other remedy, use all or a portion of the Security Deposit to
satisfy past due Rent (after the expiration of any applicable cure period) or to
cure any uncured default by Tenant. If Landlord uses the Security Deposit,
Tenant shall upon written demand restore the Security Deposit to its original
amount. Landlord shall return any unapplied portion of the Security Deposit to
Tenant within 45 days after the later to occur of: (1) the determination of
Tenant's Pro Rata Share of any Tax Excess and Expense Excess for the final year
of the Term; (2) the date Tenant surrenders possession of the Premises to
Landlord in accordance with this Lease; or (3) the Termination Date. If Landlord
transfers its interest in the Premises, Landlord may assign the Security Deposit
to the transferee and, following the assignment, Landlord shall have no further
liability for the return of the Security Deposit. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if Tenant is not in default at the termination of this Lease, Landlord shall
return any unapplied balance of the Security Deposit to Tenant within 45 days
after Tenant surrenders the Premises to Landlord in accordance with this Lease.
In addition to any other deductions Landlord is entitled to make pursuant to the
terms hereof, Landlord shall have the right to make a reasonable, good faith
estimate of any unreconciled Expenses and/or Taxes as of the Termination Date
and to deduct any anticipated shortfall from the Security Deposit. Such estimate
shall be final and binding upon Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to keep
the Security Deposit separate from its other accounts. Tenant hereby waives the
provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, or any similar or
successor Laws now or hereinafter in effect.

      The Security Deposit may be in the form of an irrevocable letter of credit
(the "Letter of Credit"), which Letter of Credit shall: (a) be in the amount of
$180,000.00; (b) be issued on the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT G; (c) name
Landlord as its beneficiary; and (d) be drawn on an FDIC insured financial
institution satisfactory to Landlord. The Letter of Credit (and any renewals or
replacements thereof) shall be for a term of not less than 1 year. Tenant agrees
that it shall from time to time, as necessary, whether as a result of a draw on
the Letter of Credit by Landlord in accordance with the terms hereof or as a
result of the expiration of the Letter of Credit then in effect, renew or
replace the original and any subsequent Letter of Credit so that a Letter of
Credit, in the amount required hereunder, is in effect until a date which is at
least 60 days after the Termination Date of the Lease. If Tenant fails to
furnish such renewal or replacement at least 60 days prior to the stated
expiration date of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord, Landlord may draw
upon such Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof (and such proceeds need
not be segregated) as a Security Deposit pursuant to the terms of this Article
VI. Any renewal or replacement of the original or any subsequent Letter of
Credit shall meet the requirements for the original Letter of Credit as set
forth above, except that such replacement or renewal shall be issued by an FDIC
insured financial institution satisfactory to the Landlord at the time of the
issuance thereof.

      If Landlord draws on the Letter of Credit as permitted in this Lease or
the Letter of Credit, then, upon demand of Landlord, Tenant shall restore the
amount available under the Letter of Credit to its original amount by providing
Landlord with an amendment to the Letter of Credit evidencing that the amount
available under the Letter of Credit has been restored to its original amount.
In the alternative, Tenant may provide Landlord with cash, to be held by
Landlord in accordance with this Article, equal to the restoration amount
required under the Letter of Credit.

VII.  SERVICES TO BE FURNISHED BY LANDLORD.

      A.    Landlord agrees to furnish Tenant with the following services: (1)
            Water service for use in the lavatories on each floor on which the
            Premises are located; (2) Heat, ventilating and air conditioning in
            season during Normal Business Hours, at such temperatures and in
            such amounts as are standard for comparable buildings or as required
            by governmental authority. Tenant shall have the right to receive
            HVAC service during hours other than Normal Business Hours provided
            that Tenant pay to Landlord the standard charge for the additional
            service and comply with the procedures for such additional service
            as established by Landlord. Tenant shall pay Landlord the standard
            charge for the

                                       11

<PAGE>

            additional service as reasonably determined by Landlord from time to
            time; (3) Maintenance and repair of the Property as described in
            Section IX.B.; (4) Janitor service on Business Days. If Tenant's
            use, floor covering or other improvements require special services
            in excess of the standard services for the Building, Tenant shall
            pay the additional cost attributable to the special services; (5)
            Elevator service, provided that, subject to Force Majeure, at least
            one (1) passenger elevator servicing the Premises shall be available
            for the use of Tenant, in common with other occupants of the
            Building, 24 hours a day, 365/6 days per year; (6) Electricity to
            the Premises for general office use, in accordance with and subject
            to the terms and conditions in Article X; (7) Access to the Building
            for Tenant and its employees 24 hours per day/7 days per week,
            subject to the terms of this Lease and such security or monitoring
            systems as Landlord may reasonably impose, including, without
            limitation, sign-in procedures and/or presentation of identification
            cards; and (8) such other services as Landlord reasonably determines
            are necessary or appropriate for the Property. As of the date
            hereof, Landlord's charge for after hours heating and air
            conditioning service is $20.00 per hour, subject to change from time
            to time.

      B.    Landlord's failure to furnish, or any interruption or termination
            of, services due to the application of Laws, the failure of any
            equipment, the performance of repairs, Improvements or alterations,
            or the occurrence of any event or cause beyond the reasonable
            control of Landlord (a "Service Failure") shall not render Landlord
            liable to Tenant, constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant, give
            rise to an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation
            to fulfill any covenant or agreement. However, if the Premises, or a
            material portion of the Premises, is made untenantable for a period
            in excess of 4 consecutive Business Days as a result of the Service
            Failure, then Tenant, as its sole remedy, shall be entitled to
            receive an abatement of Rent payable hereunder during the period
            beginning on the 5th consecutive Business Day of the Service Failure
            and ending on the day the service has been restored. If the entire
            Premises has not been rendered untenantable by the Service Failure,
            the amount of abatement that Tenant is entitled to receive shall be
            prorated based upon the percentage of the Premises rendered
            untenantable and not used by Tenant. In no event, however, shall
            Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage, including the
            theft of Tenant's Property (defined in Article XV), arising out of
            or in connection with the failure of any security services,
            personnel or equipment. Landlord shall diligently attempt to remedy
            any Service Failure which is reasonably within the control of
            Landlord; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to
            diligently attempt to remedy any such Service Failure if such remedy
            would violate any Law or injunction or other legal prohibition or if
            such Service Failure is due to any act or omission by Tenant or any
            Tenant Related Party (as defined in Section XIV.B below).
            Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Service Failure is reasonably
            within the control of Landlord and (a) continues for 180 consecutive
            days after the Service Failure initially occurs, then Tenant, as its
            sole remedy, shall have the right to elect to terminate this Lease
            within 10 days after the expiration of said 180 day period without
            penalty, by delivering written notice to Landlord of its election
            thereof. The foregoing termination right shall not apply if the
            Service Failure is due to fire or other casualty. Instead, in such
            an event, the terms and provisions of Article XVII shall apply.

VIII. LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS.

      All improvements to the Premises (collectively, "Leasehold Improvements")
shall be owned by Landlord and shall remain upon the Premises without
compensation to Tenant. However, Landlord, by written notice to Tenant within 30
days prior to the Termination Date, may require Tenant to remove, at Tenant's
expense: (1) Cable (defined in Section IX.A) installed by or for the exclusive
benefit of Tenant and located in the Premises or other portions of the Building;
and (2) any Leasehold Improvements that are performed by or for the benefit of
Tenant and, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, are of a nature that would
require removal and repair costs that are materially in excess of the removal
and repair costs associated with standard office improvements (collectively
referred to as "Required Removables"). Without limitation, it is agreed that
Required Removables include internal stairways, raised floors, personal baths
and showers, vaults, rolling file systems and structural alterations and
modifications of any type. However, it is agreed that Required Removables shall
not include any usual office improvements such as gypsum board, partitions,
ceiling grids and tiles, fluorescent lighting panels, Building standard doors,
non-glued down carpeting and any of the Landlord Work (as described in Exhibit D
attached hereto). The Required Removables

                                       12

<PAGE>

designated by Landlord shall be removed by Tenant before the Termination Date,
provided that upon prior written notice to Landlord, Tenant may remain in the
Premises for up to 5 days after the Termination Date for the sole purpose of
removing the Required Removables. Tenant's possession of the Premises shall be
subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, including the
obligation to pay Rent on a per diem basis at the rate in effect for the last
month of the Term. Tenant shall repair damage caused by the installation or
removal of Required Removables. If Tenant fails to remove any Required
Removables or perform related repairs in a timely manner, Landlord, at Tenant's
expense, may remove and dispose of the Required Removables and perform the
required repairs. Tenant, within 30 days after receipt of an invoice, shall
reimburse Landlord for the reasonable costs incurred by Landlord.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant, at the time it requests approval for a
proposed Alteration (defined in Section IX.C), may request in writing that
Landlord advise Tenant whether the Alteration or any portion of the Alteration
will be designated as a Required Removable. Within 10 days after receipt of
Tenant's request, Landlord shall advise Tenant in writing as to which portions
of the Alteration, if any, will be considered to be Required Removables.

IX.   REPAIRS AND ALTERATIONS.

      A.    Tenant's Repair Obligations. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and
            expense, promptly perform all maintenance and repairs to the
            Premises that are not Landlord's express responsibility under this
            Lease, and shall keep the Premises in good condition and repair,
            reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty (subject to the
            terms of Article XVII) excepted. Tenant's repair obligations
            include, without limitation, repairs to: (1) floor covering; (2)
            interior partitions; (3) doors; (4) the interior side of demising
            walls; (5) electronic, phone and data cabling and related equipment
            (collectively, "Cable") that is installed by or for the exclusive
            benefit of Tenant and located in the Premises or other portions of
            the Building; (6) supplemental air conditioning units, private
            showers and kitchens, including hot water heaters, plumbing, and
            similar facilities serving Tenant exclusively; and (7) Alterations
            performed by contractors retained by Tenant, including related HVAC
            balancing. All work shall be performed in accordance with the rules
            and procedures described in Section IX.C. below. If Tenant fails to
            make any repairs to the Premises for more than 15 days after notice
            from Landlord (although notice shall not be required if there is an
            emergency), Landlord may make the repairs, and Tenant shall pay the
            reasonable cost of the repairs to Landlord within 30 days after
            receipt of an invoice, together with an administrative charge in an
            amount equal to 10% of the cost of the repairs.

      B.    Landlord's Repair Obligations. Landlord shall, at its sole cost and
            expense but subject to reimbursement in accordance with the terms of
            this Lease, keep and maintain in good repair and working order and
            make repairs to, replacements of, and perform maintenance upon: (1)
            structural elements of the Building; (2) mechanical (including
            HVAC), electrical, plumbing and fire/life safety systems within or
            serving the Building in general; (3) Common Areas; (4) the roof of
            the Building; (5) exterior windows of the Building; and (6)
            elevators serving the Building. Landlord shall promptly and
            diligently make repairs (considering the nature and urgency of the
            repair) for which Landlord is responsible. Tenant hereby waives any
            and all rights under and benefits of subsection 1 of Section 1932,
            and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code, or any
            similar or successor Laws now or hereinafter in effect.

            During the first twelve (12) months of the Term hereof, following
            Landlord's receipt of written notice from Tenant during such 12
            month period, Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair
            electrical outlets located upon the walls within the Premises (but
            outside the existing server room) which electrical outlets exist as
            of the date of this Lease. As of the first day of the thirteenth
            (13th) month of the Term, Landlord shall repair any such electrical
            outlets described above, provided, however, that the cost and
            expense of such repair shall be deemed an Expense as described in
            Article IV of this Lease.

      C.    Alterations. Tenant shall not make alterations, additions or
            improvements to the Premises or install any Cable in the Premises or
            other portions of the Building (collectively referred to as
            "Alterations") without first obtaining the written consent of
            Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably
            withheld or delayed. However, Landlord's consent shall not be
            required for any Alteration that satisfies all of the following
            criteria (a "Cosmetic Alteration"): (1) is of a cosmetic nature such
            as painting, wallpapering, hanging pictures and installing

                                       13

<PAGE>

            carpeting; (2) is not visible from the exterior of the Premises or
            Building; (3) will not affect the systems or structure of the
            Building; and (4) does not require work to be performed inside the
            walls or above the ceiling of the Premises. However, even though
            consent is not required, the performance of Cosmetic Alterations
            shall be subject to all the other provisions of this Section IX.C.
            Prior to starting work, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with plans and
            specifications reasonably acceptable to Landlord; names of
            contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord (provided that
            Landlord may designate specific contractors with respect to Building
            systems); copies of contracts; necessary permits and approvals;
            evidence of contractor's and subcontractor's insurance in amounts
            reasonably required by Landlord; and any security for performance
            that is reasonably required by Landlord. Changes to the plans and
            specifications must also be submitted to Landlord for its approval.
            Alterations shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner
            using materials of a quality that is at least equal to the quality
            designated by Landlord as the minimum standard for the Building.
            Landlord may designate reasonable rules, regulations and procedures
            for the performance of work in the Building and, to the extent
            reasonably necessary to avoid disruption to the occupants of the
            Building, shall have the right to designate the time when
            Alterations may be performed. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within
            30 days after receipt of an invoice for reasonable sums paid by
            Landlord for third party examination of Tenant's plans for
            non-Cosmetic Alterations. In addition, within 30 days after receipt
            of an invoice from Landlord, Tenant shall pay Landlord a fee for
            Landlord's oversight and coordination of any non-Cosmetic
            Alterations equal to 7% of the cost of the non-Cosmetic Alterations.
            Upon completion, Tenant shall furnish "as-built" plans (except for
            Cosmetic Alterations), completion affidavits, full and final waivers
            of lien in recordable form, and receipted bills covering all labor
            and materials. Tenant shall assure that the Alterations comply with
            all insurance requirements and Laws. Landlord's approval of an
            Alteration shall not be a representation by Landlord that the
            Alteration complies with applicable Laws or will be adequate for
            Tenant's use.

X.    USE OF ELECTRICAL SERVICES BY TENANT.

      A.    Electricity used by Tenant in the Premises shall, at Landlord's
            option, be paid for by Tenant either: (1) through inclusion in
            Expenses (except as provided in Section X.B. for excess usage); (2)
            by a separate charge payable by Tenant to Landlord within 30 days
            after billing by Landlord; or (3) by separate charge billed by the
            applicable utility company and payable directly by Tenant.
            Electrical service to the Premises may be furnished by one or more
            companies providing electrical generation, transmission and
            distribution services, and the cost of electricity may consist of
            several different components or separate charges for such services,
            such as generation, distribution and stranded cost charges. Landlord
            shall have the exclusive right to select any company providing
            electrical service to the Premises, to aggregate the electrical
            service for the Property and Premises with other buildings, to
            purchase electricity through a broker and/or buyers group and to
            change the providers and manner of purchasing electricity. Landlord
            shall be entitled to receive a fee (if permitted by Law and if
            electrical cost savings are obtained) for the selection of utility
            companies and the negotiation and administration of contracts for
            electricity, provided that the amount of such fee shall not exceed
            50% of any savings obtained by Landlord.

      B.    Tenant's use of electrical service shall not exceed, either in
            voltage, rated capacity, use beyond Normal Business Hours or overall
            load, that which Landlord deems to be standard for the Building. If
            Tenant requests permission to consume excess electrical service,
            Landlord may refuse to consent or may condition consent upon
            conditions that Landlord reasonably elects (including, without
            limitation, the installation of utility service upgrades, meters,
            submeters, air handlers or cooling units), and the additional usage
            (to the extent permitted by Law), installation and maintenance costs
            shall be paid by Tenant. Landlord shall have the right to separately
            meter electrical usage for the Premises and to measure electrical
            usage by survey or other commonly accepted methods. Notwithstanding
            the foregoing, Tenant's use of amounts of electricity in accordance
            with the specifications expressly described in the Work Letter
            attached hereto and within the Building standard electrical supply
            capability shall not be deemed to create an electrical usage that is
            in excess of the standards for use for the Building.

                                       14

XI.   ENTRY BY LANDLORD.

      Landlord, its agents, contractors and representatives may enter the
Premises to inspect or show the Premises to prospective purchasers or tenants,
mortgagees, encumbrancers or to others (as to prospective tenants, only during
the last twelve (12) months of the Term), to clean and make repairs, alterations
or additions to the Premises, and to conduct or facilitate repairs, alterations
or additions to any portion of the Building, Including other tenants' premises,
and to inspect and repair the Equipment (as defined herein) and, as permitted in
the Equipment Lease, remove the Equipment from the Premises. Except in
emergencies or to provide janitorial and other Building services after Normal
Business Hours, Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable prior notice of
entry into the Premises, which may be given orally. If reasonably necessary for
the protection and safety of Tenant and its employees, Landlord shall have the
right to temporarily close all or a portion of the Premises to perform repairs,
alterations and additions. However, except in emergencies, Landlord will not
close the Premises if the work can reasonably be completed on weekends and after
Normal Business Hours. Entry by Landlord shall not constitute constructive
eviction or, except as expressly provided in this Article XI, entitle Tenant to
an abatement or reduction of Rent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in
emergency situations as determined by Landlord, Landlord shall exercise
reasonable efforts not to unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the
business of Tenant in the Premises. However, the foregoing shall not require
Landlord to perform work after Normal Business Hours unless Tenant agrees to
reimburse Landlord for the extra cost incurred in connection with such work
which exceeds the cost for such work which would have been incurred had it been
performed during Normal Business Hours. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Landlord temporarily closes the Premises as provided above for a period in
excess of 4 consecutive days, Tenant, as its sole remedy, shall be entitled to
receive a per diem abatement of Base Rent during the period beginning on the 6th
consecutive day of closure and ending on the date on which the Premises are
returned to Tenant in a tenantable condition. Tenant, however, shall not be
entitled to an abatement if the repairs, alterations and/or additions to be
performed are required as a result of the acts or omissions of Tenant, its
agents, employees or contractors, including, without limitation, a default by
Tenant in its maintenance and repair obligations under the Lease.

XII.  ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

            A. Except in connection with a Permitted Transfer (defined in
            Section XII.E. below), Tenant shall not assign, sublease, transfer
            or encumber any interest in this Lease or allow any third party to
            use any portion of the Premises (collectively or individually, a
            "Transfer") without the prior written consent of Landlord, which
            consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed
            if Landlord does not elect to exercise its termination rights under
            Section XII.B below. Without limitation, it is agreed that
            Landlord's consent shall not be considered unreasonably withheld if:
            (1) the proposed transferee's financial condition does not meet the
            criteria Landlord uses to select Building tenants having similar
            leasehold obligations, provided, with respect to a subtenant,
            Landlord shall apply a standard of whether the proposed subtenant is
            financially able to meet its sublease obligations, including its
            obligation to pay rent under the sublease, as they become due; (2)
            the proposed transferee's business is not suitable for the Building
            considering the business of the other tenants and the Building's
            prestige, or would result in a violation of another tenant's rights;
            (3) the proposed transferee is a governmental agency or occupant of
            the Building or Property; (4) Tenant is in default after the
            expiration of the notice and cure periods in this Lease; or (5) any
            portion of the Building or Premises would likely become subject to
            additional or different Laws as a consequence of the proposed
            Transfer. Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any consequential,
            special or indirect damages based upon a claim that Landlord
            unreasonably withheld its consent to a proposed Transfer. Instead,
            any such claim of Tenant shall be limited to the foreseeable, direct
            and actual damages (including, without limitation, costs arising
            under this Lease to the extent accrued after the date which would
            have been the effective date of a Transfer for which Landlord
            unreasonably withheld consent, as such "unreasonableness" is
            determined by an appropriate court of law with valid jurisdiction
            over the matter) incurred by Tenant. Tenant hereby waives the
            provisions of Section 1995.310 of the California Civil Code, or any
            similar or successor Laws, now or hereinafter in effect, and all
            other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or
            equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the extent
            permitted under all applicable Laws, on behalf of the proposed
            transferee. Any attempted Transfer in violation of this Article
            shall, at

                                       15

<PAGE>

            Landlord's option, be void. Consent by Landlord to one or more
            Transfer(s) shall not operate as a waiver of Landlord's rights to
            approve any subsequent Transfers. In no event shall any Transfer or
            Permitted Transfer release or relieve Tenant from any obligation
            under this Lease.

      B.    As part of its request for Landlord's consent to a Transfer, Tenant
            shall provide Landlord with financial statements for the proposed
            transferee, a complete copy of the proposed assignment, sublease and
            other contractual documents and such other information as Landlord
            may reasonably request. Landlord shall, by written notice to Tenant
            within 20 days of its receipt of the required information and
            documentation, either: (1) consent to the Transfer by the execution
            of a consent agreement in a form reasonably designated by Landlord
            or reasonably refuse to consent to the Transfer in writing; or (2)
            exercise its right to terminate this Lease with respect to the
            entire Premises, if Tenant is proposing to assign the Lease, or with
            respect to the portion of the Premises that Tenant is proposing to
            sublet if the proposed sublease (if approved) would result in 30% or
            more of the Tenant's Premises being subject to sublease.
            Notwithstanding the above, Tenant, within 5 days after receipt of
            Landlord's notice of intent to terminate, may withdraw its request
            for consent to the Transfer. In that event, Landlord's election to
            terminate the Lease shall be null and void and of no force and
            effect. Any such termination shall be effective on the proposed
            effective date of the Transfer for which Tenant requested consent.
            Notwithstanding the above, Landlord shall not have the right to
            terminate the Lease in the event of a Permitted Transfer, as defined
            below in this Article XII. Tenant shall pay Landlord a review fee
            for Landlord's review of any Permitted Transfer or requested
            Transfer. If Tenant executes Landlord's standard form of consent
            without any changes to this Lease or material changes to the
            consent, the review fee shall be $750.00. However, if Tenant or the
            transferee request, and Landlord agrees to, material changes to
            Landlord's standard form of consent or if there are material
            negotiations related thereto or if this Lease needs to be amended as
            a result thereof, and if Landlord's reasonable costs and expenses
            (including reasonable attorney's fees and costs attributable to time
            expended by in house counsel, accountants or other personnel of
            Landlord) exceed $750.00, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such
            reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with its review
            of the requested Transfer in lieu of a fixed review fee. Landlord
            shall make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice to Tenant in
            the event Landlord becomes aware that Landlord's reasonable costs
            and expenses associated with Landlord's review of the proposed
            transfer may exceed $750.00.

      C.    Tenant shall pay Landlord 50% of all rent and other consideration
            which Tenant receives as a result of a Transfer that is in excess of
            the Rent payable to Landlord for the portion of the Premises and
            Term covered by the Transfer. The phrase "other consideration" used
            herein shall mean all monies, property and other consideration paid
            or payable to Tenant for the Transfer and for all property in the
            Premises included in such Transfer, including, without limitation,
            fixtures, improvements of Tenant, furniture, equipment and
            furnishings, but excluding Tenant's Property. For purposes of this
            Section XII.C. only, the term "Tenant's Property" shall be as
            defined in Article XV of this Lease but shall also be deemed to
            include goodwill and any other intangible personal property
            associated with Tenant's business, but in no event shall it be
            deemed to include Tenant's interest under this Lease. Tenant shall
            pay Landlord for Landlord's share of any excess within 30 days after
            Tenant's receipt of such excess consideration. Tenant may deduct
            from the excess all reasonable and customary expenses directly
            incurred by Tenant attributable to the Transfer, including brokerage
            fees, legal fees and construction costs. If Tenant is in Monetary
            Default (defined in Section XIX.A. below), Landlord may require that
            all sublease payments be made directly to Landlord, in which case
            Tenant shall receive a credit against Rent in the amount of any
            payments received (less Landlord's share of any excess).

      D.    Except as provided below with respect to a Permitted Transfer, if
            Tenant is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or
            similar entity, and if the entity which owns or controls a majority
            of the voting shares/rights at any time changes for any reason
            (including but not limited to a merger, consolidation or
            reorganization), such change of ownership or control shall
            constitute a Transfer. The foregoing shall not apply so long as
            Tenant is an entity whose outstanding stock is listed on a
            recognized security exchange, or if at least 80% of its voting

                                       16

<PAGE>

            stock is owned by another entity, the voting stock of which is so
            listed. The foregoing also shall not apply to the infusion of
            additional equity capital in Tenant or an initial public offering of
            equity securities of Tenant under the Securities Act of 1933, as
            amended, which results in Tenant's stock being traded on a national
            securities exchange, including, but not limited to, the NYSE, the
            NASDAQ Stock Market or the NASDAQ Small Cap Market System.

            In addition, any sale or transfer of the capital stock of Tenant in
            an aggregate amount not to exceed thirty percent (30%) of the direct
            or indirect ownership of all of the voting stock of Tenant if Tenant
            is a corporation over no less than three separate and unrelated
            financing transactions shall be deemed a Permitted Transfer for
            purposes of this Lease only if all of the following conditions
            precedent are satisfied to Landlord's satisfaction (i) such sale or
            transfer occurs solely in connection with any bona fide financing or
            capitalization for the benefit of Tenant, and (ii) Tenant provides
            to Landlord ten (10) days prior written notice of such sale or
            transfer, and (iii) following such transfer, Tenant's tangible net
            worth remains reasonably sufficient, taking into account all
            expected obligations of the Tenant with respect to the transfer and
            all of its other contingent and noncontingent obligations, to
            service when due the obligations of Tenant under this Lease.

      E.    So long as Tenant is not entering into the Permitted Transfer for
            the purpose of avoiding or otherwise circumventing the remaining
            terms of this Article XII, Tenant may assign its entire interest
            under this Lease, without the consent of Landlord, to (i) an
            affiliate, subsidiary, or parent of Tenant, or a corporation,
            partnership or other legal entity wholly owned by Tenant
            (collectively, an "Affiliated Party"), or (ii) a successor to Tenant
            by purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization, provided that
            all of the following conditions are satisfied (each such Transfer a
            "Permitted Transfer"): (1) Tenant is not in default under this
            Lease; (2) the Permitted Use does not allow the Premises to be used
            for retail purposes; (3) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice
            at least 30 days prior to the effective date of the proposed
            Permitted Transfer; (4) with respect to a proposed Permitted
            Transfer to an Affiliated Party, Tenant continues to have a net
            worth equal to or greater than Tenant's net worth at the date of
            this Lease; and (5) with respect to a purchase, merger,
            consolidation or reorganization or any Permitted Transfer which
            results in Tenant ceasing to exist as a separate legal entity, (a)
            Tenant's successor shall own all or substantially all of the assets
            of Tenant, and (b) Tenant's successor shall have a net worth which
            is at least equal to the greater of Tenant's net worth at the date
            of this Lease or Tenant's net worth as of the day prior to the
            proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization. Tenant's
            notice to Landlord shall include information and documentation
            showing that each of the above conditions has been satisfied. If
            requested by Landlord, Tenant's successor shall sign a commercially
            reasonable form of assumption agreement. As used herein, (A)
            "parent" shall mean a company which owns a majority of Tenant's
            voting equity; (B) "subsidiary" shall mean an entity wholly owned by
            Tenant or at least 51% of whose voting equity is owned by Tenant;
            and (C) "affiliate" shall mean an entity controlled, controlling or
            under common control with Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
            any parent, affiliate or subsidiary to which this Lease has been
            assigned or transferred subsequently sells or transfers its voting
            equity or its interest under this Lease other than to another
            parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the original Tenant named
            hereunder, such sale or transfer shall be deemed to be a Transfer

XIII. LIENS.

      Tenant shall not permit mechanic's or other liens to be placed upon the
Property, Premises or Tenant's leasehold interest in connection with any work or

the lien, fully discharge the lien by settling the claim which resulted in the

including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees (if and to the extent
permitted by Law) within 30 days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord.

            Tenant, the Tenant Related Parties (defined below) or any of
            Tenant's transferees, contractors or licensees.

      B.    Except to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct
            of Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties (defined below) and Tenant's
            contractors, Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant, its
            trustees, members, principals, beneficiaries, partners, officers,
            directors, employees and agents ("Tenant Related Parties") and
            Tenant's contractors harmless against and from all liabilities,
            obligations, damages, penalties, claims, actions, costs, charges and
            expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
            and other professional fees (if and to the extent permitted by Law),
            which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Tenant or

            arising out of or in connection with the acts or omissions
            (including violations of Law) of Landlord, the Landlord Related
            Parties or any of Landlord's contractors.

      C.    Landlord and the Landlord Related Parties or Landlord's contractors
            shall not be liable for, and Tenant waives, all claims for loss or
            damage to Tenant's business or loss, theft or damage to Tenant's
            Property or the property of any person claiming by, through or under
            Tenant resulting from: (1) wind or weather; (2) the failure of any
            sprinkler, heating or air-conditioning equipment, any electric
            wiring or any gas, water or steam pipes; (3) the backing up of any

            such losses under Article XV below. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
            except as provided in Article XVI to the contrary, Tenant shall not
            be required to waive any claims against Landlord (other than for
            loss or damage to Tenant's business) where such loss or damage is
            due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, Landlord's
            contractors or any Landlord Related Parties. Nothing herein shall be
            construed as to diminish the repair and maintenance obligations of
            Landlord contained elsewhere in this Lease.

      Tenant shall carry and maintain the following insurance ("Tenant's
Insurance"), at its sole cost and expense: (1) Commercial General Liability

investment trust, EOP Operating Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited
partnership, and their respective members, principals, beneficiaries, partners,
officers, directors, employees, and agents, and

                                       18

<PAGE>

other designees of Landlord as the interest of such designees shall appear, as
additional insureds. All policies of Tenant's Insurance shall contain
endorsements that the insurer(s) shall give Landlord and its designees at least
30 days' advance written notice of any change, cancellation, termination or
lapse of insurance. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a certificate of
insurance evidencing Tenant's Insurance prior to the earlier to occur of the

the limits of either party's' insurance shall not limit such party's liability
under this Lease.

XVI.  SUBROGATION.

      Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and
Tenant hereby waive and shall cause their respective insurance carriers to waive
any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or causes of action against the
other and their respective trustees, principals, beneficiaries, partners,
officers, directors, agents, and employees, for any loss or damage that may
occur to Landlord or Tenant or any party claiming by, through or under Landlord
or Tenant, as the case may be, with respect to Tenant's Property, the Building,
the Premises, any additions or improvements to the Building or Premises, or any
contents thereof, including all rights of recovery, claims, actions or causes of
action arising out of the negligence of Landlord or any Landlord Related Parties
or the negligence of Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties, which loss or damage
is (or would have been, had the insurance required by this Lease been carried)
covered by insurance.

XVII. CASUALTY DAMAGE.

      A.    If all or any part of the Premises is damaged by fire or other
            casualty, Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord in writing.
            During any period of time that all or a material portion of the
            Premises is rendered untenantable as a result of a fire or other
            casualty, the Rent shall abate for the portion of the Premises that
            is untenantable and not used by Tenant. Landlord shall have the
            right to terminate this Lease if: (1) the Building shall be damaged
            so that, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, substantial alteration
            or reconstruction of the Building shall be required (whether or not
            the Premises has been damaged); (2) Landlord is not permitted by Law
            to rebuild the Building in substantially the same form as existed
            before the fire or casualty; (3) the Premises have been materially
            damaged and there is less than 18 months of the Term remaining on
            the date of the casualty; (4) any Mortgagee requires that the
            insurance proceeds be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt;
            or (5) a material uninsured loss to the Building occurs. Landlord
            may exercise its right to terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant
            in writing within 90 days after the date of the casualty. In
            addition to Landlord's right to terminate as provided herein, Tenant
            shall have the right to terminate this Lease if: (a) a substantial
            portion of the Premises has been damaged by fire or other casualty
            and such damage cannot reasonably be repaired within 60 days after
            receipt of the Completion Estimate (defined in XVII.B. below); (b)
            there is less than 18 months of the Term remaining on the date of
            such casualty; (c) the casualty was not caused by the negligence or
            willful misconduct of Tenant or its agents, employees or
            contractors; and (d) Tenant provides Landlord with written notice of
            its intent to terminate within 30 days after the date of the fire or
            other casualty. If neither Landlord nor Tenant terminate this Lease,
            Landlord shall commence and proceed with reasonable diligence to
            repair and restore the Building and the Leasehold Improvements
            (excluding any Alterations that were performed by Tenant in
            violation of this Lease). However, in no event shall Landlord be
            required to spend more than the insurance proceeds received by
            Landlord. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage to
            Tenant's Property or to the business of Tenant resulting in any way
            from the fire or other casualty or from the repair and restoration
            of the damage. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the provisions of
            any Law relating to the matters addressed in this Article, and agree
            that their

                                       19

<PAGE>
            respective rights for damage to or destruction of the Premises shall
            be those specifically provided in this Lease.

      B.    If all or any portion of the Premises shall be made untenantable by
            fire or other casualty (including any such casualty to the Building
            that prevents Tenant from having any access to the Premises),
            Landlord shall, with reasonable promptness, cause an architect or
            general contractor selected by Landlord to provide Landlord and
            Tenant with a written estimate of the amount of time reasonably
            required to substantially complete the repair and restoration of the
            Premises and make the Premises tenantable again, using standard
            working methods ("Completion Estimate"). If the Completion Estimate
            indicates that the Premises cannot be made tenantable within 210
            days from the date, the repair and restoration is started, then
            regardless of anything in Section XVII.A above to the contrary,
            either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving
            written notice to the other of such election within 10 days after
            receipt of the Completion Estimate. Tenant, however, shall not have
            the right to terminate this Lease if the fire or casualty was caused
            by the negligence or intentional misconduct of Tenant, Tenant
            Related Parties or any of Tenant's transferees, contractors or
            licensees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant was entitled to
            but elected not to exercise its right to terminate the Lease and
            Landlord does not substantially complete the repair and restoration
            of the Premises within 2 months after the expiration of the
            estimated period of time set forth in the Completion Estimate, which
            period shall be extended to the extent of any Reconstruction Delays,
            then Tenant may terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord
            within 15 days after the expiration of such period, as the same may
            be extended. For purposes of this Lease, the term "Reconstruction
            Delays" shall mean: (i) any delays caused by the insurance
            adjustment process; (ii) any delays caused by Tenant; and (iii) any
            delays caused by events of Force Majeure.

      C.    The provisions of this Lease, including this Article XVII,
            constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with
            respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any part
            of the Premises or the Property, and any Laws, including, without
            limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil
            Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or
            destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the
            parties, and any other similar Laws now or hereinafter in effect,
            shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction
            to all or any part of the Premises or the Property.

XVIII. CONDEMNATION.

      Either party may terminate this Lease if the whole or any material part of
the Premises shall be taken or condemned for any public or quasi-public use
under Law, by eminent domain or private purchase in lieu thereof (a "Taking").
Landlord and Tenant shall also have the right to terminate this Lease if there
is a Taking of any portion of the Building or Property which would leave the
remainder of the Building unsuitable for use as an office building in a manner
comparable to the Building's use prior to the Taking or if such Taking would
prevent any access to the Premises by Tenant. In order to exercise its right to
terminate the Lease, Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, must provide
written notice of termination to the other within 45 days after the terminating
party first receives notice of the Taking. Any such termination shall be
effective as of the date the physical taking of the Premises or the portion of
the Building or Property occurs. If this Lease is not terminated, the Rentable
Square Footage of the Building, the Rentable Square Footage of the Premises and
Tenant's Pro Rata Share shall, if applicable, be appropriately adjusted. In
addition, Rent for any portion of the Premises taken or condemned shall be
abated during the unexpired Term of this Lease effective when the physical
taking of the portion of the Premises occurs. If only a part of the Premises is
subject to the Taking and this Lease is not terminated as provided in this
Article, Landlord, with reasonable diligence and at its expense (to the extent
covered by any condemnation award) will restore the remaining portion of the
Premises as nearly as practicable to its condition immediately prior to such
Taking. All compensation awarded for a Taking, or sale proceeds, shall be the
property of Landlord, any right to receive compensation or proceeds being
expressly waived by Tenant. However, Tenant may file a separate claim at its
sole cost and expense for Tenant's Property and Tenant's reasonable relocation
expenses, provided the filing of the claim does not diminish the award which
would otherwise be receivable by Landlord. Tenant hereby waives any and all
rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of the California
Code of Civil Procedure, or any similar or successor Laws.

                                       20

XIX.  EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

      Tenant shall be considered to be in default of this Lease upon the
occurrence of any of the following events of default:

      A.    Tenant's failure to pay when due all or any portion of the Rent, if
            the failure continues for 3 days after written notice to Tenant
            ("Monetary Default"). The parties agree that any notice of default
            required under this Lease may be delivered to Tenant concurrently
            with any notice of default required by applicable law.

      B.    Tenant's failure (other than a Monetary Default) to comply with any
            term, provision or covenant of this Lease, if the failure is not
            cured within 20 days after written notice to Tenant. However, if
            Tenant's failure to comply cannot reasonably be cured within 20
            days, Tenant shall be allowed additional time (not to exceed 60
            days) as is reasonably necessary to cure the failure so long as: (1)
            Tenant commences to cure the failure within 20 days, and (2) Tenant
            diligently pursues a course of action that will cure the failure and
            bring Tenant back into compliance with the Lease. However, if
            Tenant's failure to comply creates a hazardous condition, the
            failure must be cured immediately upon notice to Tenant. In
            addition, if Landlord provides Tenant with notice of Tenant's
            failure to comply with any particular term, provision or covenant of
            the Lease on 3 occasions during any 12 month period, Tenant's
            subsequent violation of such term, provision or covenant shall, at
            Landlord's option, be an incurable event of default by Tenant.

      C.    Tenant or any Guarantor becomes insolvent, makes a transfer in fraud
            of creditors or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
            admits in writing its inability to pay its debts when due.

      D.    The leasehold estate is taken by process or operation of Law.

      E     In the case of any ground floor or retail Tenant, Tenant does not
            take possession of, or abandons or vacates all or any portion of the
            Premises.

      F.    Tenant is in default beyond any notice and cure period under any
            other lease or agreement with Landlord, including, without
            limitation, that certain Equipment Lease (the "Equipment Lease") by
            and between Landlord and Tenant dated as of even date herewith and
            covering certain personal property (the "Equipment") located in the
            Premises and described with particularity therein, and any lease or
            agreement for parking.

      G.    Landlord shall be in default under this Lease if Landlord or its
            Mortgagee (as defined in Article XXVI) fails to perform any of
            Landlord's obligations hereunder and said failure continues for a
            period of 60 days (or, with respect to the Mortgagee, such longer
            cure period as may be specified in any written agreement between
            Tenant and Mortgagee regarding such matter) after written notice
            from Tenant to Landlord and the Mortgagee of whose identity Tenant
            has been notified in writing, describing the default in reasonable
            detail (provided that if such failure cannot reasonably be cured
            within 60 days, Landlord shall be in default hereunder only if
            Landlord or its Mortgagee fails to commence to cure such default
            within 60 days after notice from Tenant, or having commenced the
            curative action within 60 days, fails to diligently pursue same). In
            the event of a default by Landlord under the Lease, Tenant shall use
            reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages and losses arising from
            any such default and Tenant may pursue any and all remedies
            available to it at law or in equity, provided, however, in no event
            shall Tenant claim a constructive or actual eviction or that the
            Premises have become unsuitable or unhabitable prior to a default
            and failure to cure by Landlord and its Mortgagee under this Lease
            and, further provided, in no event shall Tenant be entitled to
            receive more than its actual direct damages, it being agreed that
            Tenant hereby waives any claim it otherwise may have for special or
            consequential damages.

XX.   REMEDIES.

      A.    Upon the occurrence of any event or events of default under this
            Lease, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of
            the following remedies without

                                       21

<PAGE>

            any notice (except as expressly prescribed herein) or demand
            whatsoever (and without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
            Tenant hereby specifically waives notice and demand for payment of
            Rent or other obligations and waives any and all other notices or
            demand requirements imposed by applicable law):

            1.    Terminate this Lease and Tenant's right to possession of the
                  Premises and recover from Tenant an award of damages equal to
                  the sum of the following:

                  (a)   The Worth at the Time of Award of the unpaid Rent which
                        had been earned at the time of termination;

                  (b)   The Worth at the Time of Award of the amount by which
                        the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after
                        termination until the time of award exceeds the amount
                        of such Rent loss that Tenant affirmatively proves could
                        have been reasonably avoided;

                  (c)   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 such Rent loss that
                        Tenant affirmatively proves could be reasonably avoided;

                  (d)   Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for
                        all the detriment either proximately caused by Tenant's
                        failure to perform Tenant's obligations under this Lease
                        or which in the ordinary course of things would be
                        likely to result therefrom; and

                  (e)   All such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the
                        foregoing as may be permitted from time to time under
                        applicable law.

                  The "Worth at the Time of Award" of the amounts referred to in
                  parts (a) and (b) above, shall be computed by allowing
                  interest at the lesser of a per annum rate equal to: (i) the
                  greatest per annum rate of interest permitted from time to
                  time under applicable law, or (ii) the Prime Rate plus 5%. For
                  purposes hereof, the "Prime Rate" shall be the Prime Rate from
                  time to time published in the Money Rates column of The Wall
                  Street Journal; provided, however, if The Wall Street Journal
                  ceases to publish the Prime Rate in its Money Rates column or
                  similar section of The Wall Street Journal, the "Prime Rate"
                  shall be the per annum interest rate publicly announced as its
                  prime or base rate by a federally insured bank selected by
                  Landlord in the state in which the Building is located. The
                  "Worth at the Time of Award" of the amount referred to in part
                  (c), above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at
                  the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco
                  at the time of award plus 1%;

            2.    Employ the remedy described in California Civil Code Section
                  1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after
                  Tenant's breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes
                  due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only
                  to reasonable limitations); or

            3.    Notwithstanding Landlord's exercise of the remedy described in
                  California Civil Code Section 1951.4 in respect of an event or
                  events of default, at such time thereafter as Landlord may
                  elect in writing, to terminate this Lease and Tenant's right
                  to possession of the Premises and recover an award of damages
                  as provided above in Paragraph XX.A.1.

      B.    The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be
            deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term,
            covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of
            Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted, regardless of
            Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of
            acceptance of such Rent. No waiver by Landlord of any breach hereof
            shall be effective unless such waiver is in writing and signed by
            Landlord.

      C.    TENANT HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS CONFERRED BY SECTION 3275 OF
            THE CIVIL CODE OF CALIFORNIA AND BY SECTIONS 1174 (c) AND 1179 OF
            THE CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OF CALIFORNIA AND ANY AND ALL OTHER LAWS
            AND RULES OF LAW FROM

                                       22

<PAGE>

            TIME TO TIME IN EFFECT DURING THE LEASE TERM PROVIDING THAT TENANT
            SHALL HAVE ANY RIGHT TO REDEEM, REINSTATE OR RESTORE THIS LEASE
            FOLLOWING ITS TERMINATION BY REASON OF TENANT'S BREACH. TENANT ALSO
            HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RIGHT TO
            TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
            LEASE.

      D.    No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is
            intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and
            every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any
            other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing
            by agreement, applicable law or in equity. In addition to other
            remedies provided in this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled, to the
            extent permitted by applicable law, to injunctive relief, or to a
            decree compelling performance of any of the covenants, agreements,
            conditions or provisions of this Lease, or to any other remedy
            allowed to Landlord at law or in equity. Forbearance by Landlord to
            enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an event of
            default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of
            such default.

      E.    This Article XX shall be enforceable to the maximum extent such
            enforcement is not prohibited by applicable law, and the
            unenforceability of any portion thereof shall not thereby render
            unenforceable any other portion.

XXI.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

      NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE, THE
LIABILITY OF LANDLORD (AND OF ANY SUCCESSOR LANDLORD) TO TENANT SHALL BE LIMITED
TO THE INTEREST OF LANDLORD IN THE PROPERTY. TENANT SHALL LOOK SOLELY TO
LANDLORD'S INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY FOR THE RECOVERY OF ANY JUDGMENT OR AWARD
AGAINST LANDLORD. NEITHER LANDLORD NOR ANY LANDLORD RELATED PARTY SHALL BE
PERSONALLY LIABLE FOR ANY JUDGMENT OR DEFICIENCY. BEFORE FILING SUIT FOR AN
ALLEGED DEFAULT BY LANDLORD, TENANT SHALL GIVE LANDLORD AND THE MORTGAGEE(S)
(DEFINED IN ARTICLE XXVI BELOW) WHOM TENANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED HOLD MORTGAGES
(DEFINED IN ARTICLE XXVI BELOW) ON THE PROPERTY, BUILDING OR PREMISES, NOTICE
AND THE TIME PERIOD TO CURE THE ALLEGED DEFAULT AS SUCH TIME PERIOD IS DESCRIBED
IN SECTION XIX.G ABOVE.

XXII. NO WAIVER.

      Either party's failure to declare a default immediately upon its
occurrence, or delay in taking action for a default shall not constitute a
waiver of the default, nor shall it constitute an estoppel. Either party's
failure to enforce its rights for a default shall not constitute a waiver of its
rights regarding any subsequent default. Receipt by Landlord of Tenant's keys to
the Premises shall not constitute an acceptance or surrender of the Premises.

XXIII. QUIET ENJOYMENT.

      Tenant shall, and may peacefully have, hold and enjoy the Premises,
subject to the terms of this Lease, provided Tenant pays the Rent and fully
performs all of its covenants and agreements. This covenant and all other
covenants of Landlord shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors only
during its or their respective periods of ownership of the Building, and shall
not be a personal covenant of Landlord or the Landlord Related Parties.

XXIV. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

XXV.  HOLDING OVER.

      Except for any permitted occupancy by Tenant under Article VIII, if Tenant
fails to surrender the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease, occupancy of the Premises after the termination or expiration shall be
that of a tenancy at sufferance. Tenant's occupancy of the Premises during the
holdover shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Lease and
Tenant shall pay an amount equal to 150% of the greater of: (1) the sum of the
Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the period immediately preceding the
holdover; or (2) the fair market gross rental for the Premises as reasonably
determined by Landlord. No holdover by Tenant or payment by Tenant after the
expiration or early termination of this Lease shall be construed to extend the
Term or prevent Landlord from immediate recovery of

                                       23

<PAGE>

possession of the Premises by summary proceedings or otherwise. In addition to
the payment of the amounts provided above, if Landlord is unable to deliver
possession of the Premises to a new tenant, or to perform improvements for a new
tenant, as a result of Tenant's holdover and Tenant fails to vacate the Premises
within 15 days after Landlord notifies Tenant of Landlord's inability to deliver
possession, or perform improvements, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all
damages, including, without limitation, consequential damages, that Landlord
suffers from the holdover.

XXVI. SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGES; ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.

      Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage(s),
deed(s) of trust, ground lease(s) or other lien(s) now or subsequently arising
upon the Premises, the Building or the Property, and to renewals, modifications,
refinancings and extensions thereof (collectively referred to as a "Mortgage").
The party having the benefit of a Mortgage shall be referred to as a
"Mortgagee". This clause shall be self-operative, but upon request from a
Mortgagee, Tenant shall execute a commercially reasonable subordination
agreement in favor of the Mortgagee. In lieu of having the Mortgage be superior
to this Lease, a Mortgagee shall have the right at any time to subordinate its
Mortgage to this Lease. If requested by a successor-in-interest to all or a part
of Landlord's interest in the Lease, Tenant shall, without charge, attorn to the
successor-in-interest. Landlord and Tenant shall each, within 10 days after
receipt of a written request from the other, execute and deliver an estoppel
certificate to those parties as are reasonably requested by the other (including
a Mortgagee or prospective purchaser). The estoppel certificate shall include a
statement certifying that this Lease is unmodified (except as identified in the
estoppel certificate) and in full force and effect, describing the dates to
which Rent and other charges have been paid, representing that, to such party's
actual knowledge, there is no default (or stating the nature of the alleged
default) and indicating other matters with respect to the Lease that may
reasonably be requested.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request by Tenant, Landlord
will use reasonable efforts to obtain a non-disturbance, subordination and
attornment agreement from Landlord's then current Mortgagee on such Mortgagee's
then current standard form of agreement, which agreement shall not materially
reduce any of Tenant's or Landlord's rights or increase Tenant's or Landlord's
obligations contained in this Lease. Landlord's then current Mortgagee shall be
an express third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Article XXVI and
any other provisions of this Lease that are for the benefit of such party.
"Reasonable efforts" of Landlord shall not require Landlord to incur any cost,
expense or liability to obtain such agreement, it being agreed that Tenant shall
be responsible for any fee or review costs charged by the Mortgagee. Upon
request of Landlord, Tenant will execute the Mortgagee's form of
non-disturbance, subordination and attornment agreement and return the same to
Landlord for execution by the Mortgagee. Landlord's failure to obtain a
non-disturbance, subordination and attornment agreement for Tenant shall have no
effect on the rights, obligations and liabilities of Landlord and Tenant or be
considered to be a default by Landlord hereunder. The parties hereto acknowledge
and agree that any non-disturbance, subordination, and .attornment agreement in
favor of Tenant shall provide that, so long as Tenant is paying the Rent due
under the Lease and is not otherwise in default under the Lease beyond any
applicable cure period, its right to possession and the other terms of the Lease
shall remain in full force and effect. Such non-disturbance, subordination, and
attornment agreement may include other commercially reasonable provisions in
favor of the Mortgagee, including, without limitation, additional time on behalf
of the Mortgagee to cure defaults of the Landlord and provide that (a) neither
Mortgagee nor any successor-in-interest shall be bound by (i) any payment of the
Base Rent, Additional Rent, or other sum due under this Lease for more than 1
month in advance or (ii) any amendment or modification of the Lease made without
the express written consent of Mortgagee or any successor-in-interest; (b)
neither Mortgagee nor any successor-in-interest will be liable for (i) any act
or omission or warranties of any prior landlord (including Landlord), (ii) the
breach of any warranties or obligations relating to construction of improvements
on the Property or any tenant finish work performed or to have been performed by
any prior landlord (including Landlord), or (iii) the return of any security
deposit, except to the extent such deposits have been received by Mortgagee; and
(c) neither Mortgagee nor any successor-in-interest shall be subject to any
offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord
(including Landlord).

XXVII. ATTORNEYS' FEES.

      If either party institutes a suit against the other for violation of or to
enforce any covenant or condition of this Lease, or if either party intervenes
in any suit in which the other is a party to enforce or protect its interest or
rights, the prevailing party shall be entitled to all of its costs and expenses,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees.

                                       24

XXVIII. NOTICE.

      If a demand, request, approval, consent or notice (collectively referred
to as a "notice") shall or may be given to either party by the other, the notice
shall be in writing and delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified
mail with return receipt requested, or sent by overnight or same day courier
service at the party's respective Notice Address(es) set forth in Article I,
except that if Tenant has vacated the Premises (or if the Notice Address for
Tenant is other than the Premises, and Tenant has vacated such address) without
providing Landlord a new Notice Address, Landlord may serve notice in any manner
described in this Article or in any other manner permitted by Law. Each notice
shall be deemed to have been received or given on the earlier to occur of actual
delivery or the date on which delivery is refused, or, if Tenant has vacated the
Premises or the other Notice Address of Tenant without providing a new Notice
Address, 3 days after notice is deposited in the U.S. mail or with a courier
service in the manner described above. Either party may, at any time, change its
Notice Address by giving the other party written notice of the new address in
the manner described in this Article.

XXIX. EXCEPTED RIGHTS.

      This Lease does not grant any rights to light or air over or about the
Building; Landlord excepts and reserves exclusively to itself the use of: (1)
roofs, (2) telephone, electrical and janitorial closets, (3) equipment rooms,
Building risers or similar areas that are used by Landlord for the provision of
Building services, (4) rights to the land and improvements below the floor of
the Premises, (5) the improvements and air rights above the Premises, (6) the
improvements and air rights outside the demising walls of the Premises, and (7)
the areas within the Premises used for the installation of utility lines and
other installations serving occupants of the Building. Landlord has the right to
change the Building's name or address. Landlord also has the right to make such
other changes to the Property and Building as Landlord deems appropriate,
provided the changes do not materially affect Tenant's ability to use the
Premises for the Permitted Use. Landlord shall also have the right (but not the
obligation) to temporarily close the Building if Landlord reasonably determines
that there is an imminent danger of significant damage to the Building or of
personal injury to Landlord's employees or the occupants of the Building. The
circumstances under which Landlord may temporarily close the Building shall
include, without limitation, electrical interruptions, hurricanes and civil
disturbances. A closure of the Building under such circumstances shall not
constitute a constructive eviction nor entitle Tenant to an abatement or
reduction of Rent.

XXX.  SURRENDER OF PREMISES.

      At the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or Tenant's right
of possession, Tenant shall remove Tenant's Property (defined in Article XV)
from the Premises, and quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord, broom clean,
in as good order, condition and repair as received by Tenant (except with
respect to any repairs, replacements or Alterations performed by Landlord or
Tenant, or on behalf of Tenant, during the Term of this Lease which repairs,
replacements or Alterations are in better order, condition or repair as of the
date received by Tenant, which repairs, replacements or Alterations shall be
surrendered to Landlord in good order, condition and repair), ordinary wear and
tear and damage by fire or other casualty for which Landlord is required to make
repairs hereunder excepted. Tenant shall also be required to remove the Required
Removables in accordance with Article VIII. If Tenant fails to remove any of
Tenant's Property within 2 days after the termination of this Lease or of
Tenant's right to possession, Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall
be entitled (but not obligated) to remove and store Tenant's Property. Landlord
shall not be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping of Tenant's
Property. Tenant shall pay Landlord, upon demand, the expenses and storage
charges incurred for Tenant's Property. In addition, if Tenant fails to remove
Tenant's Property from the Premises or storage, as the case may be, within 30
days after written notice, Landlord may deem all or any part of Tenant's
Property to be abandoned, and title to Tenant's Property shall be deemed to be
immediately vested in Landlord.

XXXI. MISCELLANEOUS.

      A.    This Lease and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be
            interpreted, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of
            the State of California and Landlord and Tenant hereby irrevocably
            consent to the jurisdiction and proper venue of such state. If any
            term or provision of this Lease shall to any extent be invalid or
            unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected,
            and each provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforced to the
            fullest extent permitted by Law. The headings and titles to the
            Articles and

                                       25

<PAGE>

            Sections of this Lease are for convenience only and shall have no
            effect on the interpretation of any part of the Lease.

      B.    Tenant shall not record this Lease or any memorandum without
            Landlord's prior written consent.

      C.    Landlord and Tenant hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any
            proceeding based upon a breach of this Lease.

      D.    Whenever a period of time is prescribed for the taking of an action
            by Landlord or Tenant, the period of time for the performance of
            such action shall be extended by the number of days that the
            performance is actually delayed due to strikes, acts of God,
            shortages of labor or materials, war, civil disturbances and other
            causes beyond the reasonable control of the performing party ("Force
            Majeure"). However, events of Force Majeure shall not extend any
            period of time for the payment of Rent or other sums payable by
            either party or any period of time for the written exercise of an
            option or right by either party.

      E.    Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in
            part, all of its rights and obligations under this Lease and in the
            Building and/or Property referred to herein, and upon such transfer
            Landlord shall be released from any further obligations hereunder,
            and Tenant agrees to look solely to the successor in interest of
            Landlord for the performance of such obligations, provided that, any
            successor pursuant to a voluntary, third-party transfer (but not as
            part of an involuntary transfer resulting from a foreclosure or deed
            in lieu thereof) shall have assumed Landlord's obligations under
            this Lease either by contractual obligation, assumption agreement or
            by operation of law.

      F.    Tenant represents that it has dealt directly with and only with the
            Broker as a broker in connection with this Lease. Tenant shall
            indemnify and hold Landlord and the Landlord Related Parties
            harmless from all claims of any other brokers claiming to have
            represented Tenant in connection with this Lease. Landlord agrees to
            indemnify and hold Tenant and the Tenant Related Parties harmless
            from all claims of any brokers claiming to have represented Landlord
            in connection with this Lease. Landlord agrees to pay a brokerage
            commission to Broker in accordance with the terms of a separate
            written commission agreement to be entered into between Landlord and
            Broker, provided that in no event shall Landlord be obligated to pay
            a commission to Broker in connection with any extension of the Term
            or in connection with any additional space that is leased by Tenant
            pursuant to the terms of this Lease except as may be specifically
            provided otherwise in such written agreement or future written
            agreement between Landlord and Broker.

      G.    Tenant covenants, warrants and represents that: (1) each individual
            executing, attesting and/or delivering this Lease on behalf of
            Tenant is authorized to do so on behalf of Tenant; (2) this Lease is
            binding upon Tenant; and (3) Tenant is duly organized and legally
            existing in the state of its organization and is qualified to do
            business in the State of California. If there is more than one
            Tenant, or if Tenant is comprised of more than one party or entity,
            the obligations imposed upon Tenant shall be joint and several
            obligations of all the parties and entities. Notices, payments and
            agreements given or made by, with or to any one person or entity
            shall be deemed to have been given or made by, with and to all of
            them.

            Landlord covenants, warrants and represents that: (1) each
            individual executing, attesting and/or delivering this Lease on
            behalf of Landlord is authorized to do so on behalf of Landlord; (2)
            this Lease is binding upon Landlord; and (3) Landlord is duly
            organized and legally existing in the state of its organization and
            is qualified to do business in the state in which the Premises are
            located.

      H.    Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant's exercise of any
            expansion, renewal or extension rights granted to Tenant. This Lease
            shall create only the relationship of landlord and tenant between
            the parties, and not a partnership, joint venture or any other
            relationship. This Lease and the covenants and conditions in this
            Lease shall inure only to the benefit of and be binding only upon
            Landlord and Tenant and their permitted successors and assigns.

                                       26

<PAGE>

      I.    The expiration of the Term, whether by lapse of time or otherwise,
            shall not relieve either party of any obligations which accrued
            prior to or which may, according to the terms of this Lease,
            continue to accrue after the expiration or early termination of this
            Lease. Without limiting the scope of the prior sentence, and to the
            extent not violating any Law and subject to Section XX, it is agreed
            that Tenant's obligations under Sections IV.A, IV.B., VIII, XIV, XX,
            XXV and XXX shall survive the expiration or early termination of
            this Lease. Without limiting the scope of the first sentence of this
            Section, it is agreed that Landlord's obligations under Sections XIV
            and XXX shall survive the expiration or early termination of this
            Lease.

      J.    Landlord has delivered a copy of this Lease to Tenant for Tenant's
            review only, and the delivery of it does not constitute an offer to
            Tenant or an option. This Lease shall not be effective against any
            party hereto until an original copy of this Lease has been signed by
            such party.

      K.    All understandings and agreements previously made between the
            parties are superseded by this Lease, and neither party is relying
            upon any warranty, statement or representation not contained in this
            Lease. This Lease may be modified only by a written agreement signed
            by Landlord and Tenant.

      L.    Tenant, within 15 days after request, shall provide Landlord with a
            current financial statement and such other information as Landlord
            may reasonably request in order to create a "business profile" of
            Tenant and determine Tenant's ability to fulfill its obligations
            under this Lease. Landlord, however, shall not require Tenant to
            provide such information unless Landlord is requested to produce the
            information in connection with a proposed financing or sale of the
            Building. Upon written request by Tenant, Landlord shall enter into
            a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement covering any
            confidential information that is disclosed by Tenant.

XXXII. ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

      This Lease and the following exhibits and attachments constitute the
entire agreement between the parties and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings related to the Premises, including all lease proposals, letters
of intent and other documents: EXHIBIT A (Outline and Location of Premises),
EXHIBIT B (Rules and Regulations), EXHIBIT C (Commencement Letter), EXHIBIT D
(Work Letter Agreement), EXHIBIT E (Additional Provisions), EXHIBIT F (Parking
Agreement), EXHIBIT G (Form of Letter of Credit), and EXHIBIT H (Asset Purchase
Agreement).

      The following rules and regulations shall apply, where applicable, to the
Premises, the Building, the parking garage (if any), the Property and the
appurtenances. Capitalized terms have the same meaning as defined in the Lease.

1.    Sidewalks, doorways, vestibules, halls, stairways and other similar areas

      no time shall Tenant permit Tenant's employees to loiter in Common Areas
      or elsewhere about the Building or Property.

2.    Plumbing fixtures and appliances shall be used only for the purposes for
      which designed, and no sweepings, rubbish, rags or other unsuitable
      material shall be thrown or placed in the fixtures or appliances. Damage

6.    All contractors, contractor's representatives and installation technicians
      performing work in the Building shall be subject to Landlord's prior

      time.

7.    Movement in or out of the Building of furniture or office equipment, or

      prior approval by providing a detailed listing of the activity. If
      approved by Landlord, the activity shall be under the supervision of
      Landlord and performed in the manner required by Landlord. Tenant shall
      assume all risk for damage to articles moved and injury to any persons
      resulting from the activity. If equipment, property, or personnel of
      Landlord or of any other party is damaged or injured as a result of or in
      connection with the activity, Tenant shall be solely liable for any
      resulting damage or loss.

8.    Landlord shall have the right to approve the weight, size, or location of

      (3) conduct or permit other activities in the Building that might, in

11.   No animals, except those assisting handicapped persons, shall be brought
      into the Building or kept in or about the Premises.

12.   No inflammable, explosive or dangerous fluids or substances shall be used
      or kept by Tenant in the Premises, Building or about the Property. Tenant
      shall not, without Landlord's prior written consent, use, store, install,

      solid, liquid or gaseous material now or subsequently considered toxic or
      hazardous under the provisions of 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq. or any
      other applicable environmental Law which may now or later be in effect
      (collectively, "Hazardous Materials"). Tenant shall comply with all Laws
      pertaining to and governing the use of Hazardous Materials by Tenant, and
      shall remain solely liable for the costs of abatement and removal.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may handle, store, use and dispose
      of products containing small quantities of Hazardous Materials for
      "general office purposes" (such as toner for copiers) to the extent
      customary and necessary for the Permitted Use of the Premises; provided
      that Tenant shall always handle, store, use, and dispose of any such
      Hazardous Materials in a safe and lawful manner and never allow such
      Hazardous Materials to contaminate the Premises, Building, or project or
      surrounding land or environment.

13.   Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises in any manner or for any
      purpose which might injure the reputation or impair the present or future
      value of the Premises or the Building. Tenant shall not use, or permit any
      part of the Premises to be used, for lodging, sleeping or for any illegal
      purpose.

14.   Tenant shall not take any action which would violate Landlord's labor
      contracts or which would cause a work stoppage, picketing, labor
      disruption or dispute, or interfere with Landlord's or any other tenant's
      or occupant's business or with the rights and privileges of any person
      lawfully in the Building ("Labor Disruption"). Tenant shall take the
      actions necessary to resolve the Labor Disruption, and shall have pickets
      removed and, at the request of Landlord, immediately terminate any work in
      the Premises that gave rise to the Labor Disruption, until Landlord gives
      its written consent for the work to resume. Tenant shall have no claim for
      damages against Landlord or any of the Landlord Related Parties, nor shall
      the Commencement Date of the Term be extended as a result of the above
      actions.

15.   Tenant shall not install, operate or maintain in the Premises or in any
      other area of the Building, electrical equipment that would overload the
      electrical system beyond its capacity for proper, efficient and safe
      operation as determined solely by Landlord. Tenant shall not furnish
      cooling or heating to the Premises, including, without limitation, the use
      of electronic or gas heating devices, without Landlord's prior written
      consent. Tenant shall not use more than its proportionate share of
      telephone lines and other telecommunication facilities available to
      service the Building.

16.   Tenant shall not operate or permit to be operated a coin or token operated
      vending machine or similar device (including, without limitation,
      telephones, lockers, toilets, scales, amusement devices and machines for
      sale of beverages, foods, candy, cigarettes and other goods), except for
      machines for the exclusive use of Tenant's employees, and then only if the
      operation does not violate the lease of any other tenant in the Building.

17.   Bicycles and other vehicles are not permitted inside the Building or on
      the walkways outside the Building, except in areas designated by Landlord.

18.   Landlord may from time to time adopt systems and procedures for the
      security and safety of the Building, its occupants, entry, use and
      contents. Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, guests and invitees
      shall comply with Landlord's systems and procedures.

19.   Landlord shall have the right to prohibit the use of the name of the
      Building or any other publicity by Tenant that in Landlord's sole opinion
      may impair the reputation of the Building or its desirability. Upon
      written notice from Landlord, Tenant shall refrain from and discontinue
      such publicity immediately.

                                       2

20.   Tenant shall not canvass, solicit or peddle in or about the Building or
      the Property.

21.   Neither Tenant nor its agents, employees, contractors, guests or invitees
      shall smoke or permit smoking in the Common Areas, unless the Common Areas
      have been declared a designated smoking area by Landlord, nor shall the
      above parties allow smoke from the Premises to emanate into the Common
      Areas or any other part of the Building. Landlord shall have the right to
      designate the Building (including the Premises) as a non-smoking building.

22.   Landlord shall have the right to designate and approve standard window
      coverings for the Premises and to establish rules to assure that the
      Building presents a uniform exterior appearance. Tenant shall ensure, to
      the extent reasonably practicable, that window coverings are closed on
      windows in the Premises while they are exposed to the direct rays of the
      sun.

23.   Deliveries to and from the Premises shall be made only at the times, in
      the areas and through the entrances and exits designated by Landlord.
      Tenant shall not make deliveries to or from the Premises in a manner that
      might interfere with the use by any other tenant of its premises or of the
      Common Areas, any pedestrian use, or any use which is inconsistent with
      good business practice.

24.   The work of cleaning personnel shall not be hindered by Tenant after 5:30
      P.M., and cleaning work may be done at any time when the offices are
      vacant. Windows, doors and fixtures may be cleaned at any time. Tenant
      shall provide adequate waste and rubbish receptacles to prevent
      unreasonable hardship to the cleaning service.

                                   WORK LETTER

      This work letter (this "Work Letter") is attached to and made a part of
the Lease by and between EOP-EMERYVILLE PROPERTIES, L.L.C., A DELAWARE LIMITED
LIABILITY COMPANY ("Landlord") and ZIPREALTY, INC., A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION
("Tenant") for space in the Building located at 2000 Powell Street, Emeryville,
California

As used in this Work Letter, the "Premises" shall be deemed to mean the
Premises, as initially defined in the attached Lease.

1.    Landlord shall perform improvements to the Premises substantially in
      accordance with the plans prepared by Breraton Architects, dated October
      24, 2001 (the "Plans"). The improvements to be performed by Landlord in
      accordance with the Plans are hereinafter referred to as the "Landlord
      Work." Landlord shall perform the Landlord Work in a good and workmanlike
      manner. It is agreed that construction of the Landlord Work will be
      completed at Landlord's sole cost and expense (subject to the Maximum
      Amount and further subject to the terms of Paragraph 4 below) using
      Building Standard methods, materials and finishes. Landlord and Tenant
      agree that Landlord's obligation to pay for the cost of Landlord Work
      (inclusive of the cost of preparing Plans, obtaining permits and other
      related costs) shall be limited to $63,300.00 (the "Maximum Amount") and
      that Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of Landlord Work, plus any
      applicable state sales or use tax, if any, to the extent that it exceeds
      the Maximum Amount. Landlord shall enter into a direct contract for the
      Landlord Work with a general contractor selected by Landlord. In addition,
      Landlord shall have the right to select and/or approve of any
      subcontractors used in connection with the Landlord Work. Landlord's
      supervision or performance of any work for or on behalf of Tenant shall
      not be deemed a representation by Landlord that such Plans or the
      revisions thereto comply with applicable insurance requirements, building
      codes, ordinances, laws or regulations, or that the improvements
      constructed in accordance with the Plans and any revisions thereto will be
      adequate for Tenant's use, it being agreed that Tenant shall be
      responsible for all elements of the design of Tenant's plans (including,
      without limitation, compliance with law, functionality of design, the
      structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the premises and
      the placement of Tenant's furniture, appliances and equipment).

2.    If Landlord's estimate and/or the actual cost of the Landlord Work shall
      exceed the Maximum Amount, Landlord, prior to commencing any construction
      of Landlord Work, shall submit to Tenant a written estimate setting forth
      the anticipated cost of the Landlord Work, including but not limited to
      labor and materials, contractor's fees and permit fees. Within 3 Business
      Days thereafter, Tenant shall either notify Landlord in writing of its
      approval of the cost estimate, or specify its objections thereto and any
      desired changes to the proposed Landlord Work. If Tenant notifies Landlord
      of such objections and desired changes, Tenant shall work with Landlord to
      reach a mutually acceptable alternative cost estimate.

3.    If Landlord's estimate and/or the actual cost of construction shall exceed
      the Maximum Amount (such amounts exceeding the Maximum Amount being herein
      referred to as the "Excess Costs"), Tenant shall pay to Landlord such
      Excess Costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, upon
      demand. The statements of costs submitted to Landlord by Landlord's
      contractors shall be conclusive for purposes of determining the actual
      cost of the items described therein. The amounts payable by Tenant
      hereunder constitute Rent payable pursuant to the Lease, and the failure
      to timely pay same constitutes an event of default under the Lease.

4.    If Tenant shall request any revisions to the Plans, Landlord shall have
      such revisions prepared at Tenant's sole cost and expense and Tenant shall
      reimburse Landlord for the cost of preparing any such revisions to the
      Plans, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, upon demand.
      Promptly upon completion of the revisions, Landlord shall notify Tenant
      in writing of the increased cost in the Landlord Work, if any, resulting
      from such revisions to the Plans. Tenant, within one Business Day, shall
      notify Landlord in writing whether it desires to proceed with such
      revisions. In the absence of such written authorization, Landlord shall
      have the option to continue work on the Premises disregarding the
      requested revision. Tenant shall be responsible for any Tenant Delay in
      completion of the Premises resulting from any revision to the Plans. If
      such revisions result in an increase in the cost of Landlord Work, such
      increased costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, shall
      be payable by Tenant upon demand.

                                       1

<PAGE>

      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all revisions to the
      Plans shall be subject to the approval of Landlord.

5.    Any portion of the Maximum Amount which exceeds the cost of the Landlord
      Work or is otherwise remaining after March 31, 2002, shall accrue to the
      sole benefit of Landlord, it being agreed that Tenant shall not be
      entitled to any credit, offset, abatement or payment with respect thereto.

6.    Landlord and Tenant agree to cooperate with each other in order to enable
      the Landlord Work to be performed in a timely manner and with as little
      inconvenience to the operation of Tenant's business as is reasonably
      possible. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any delay in
      the completion of the Landlord Work or inconvenience suffered by Tenant
      during the performance of the Landlord Work shall not delay the
      Commencement Date nor shall it subject Landlord to any liability for any
      loss or damage resulting therefrom or entitle Tenant to any credit,
      abatement or adjustment of Rent or other sums payable under the Lease.

7.    This Work Letter shall not be deemed applicable to any additional space
      added to the Premises at any time or from time to time, whether by any
      options under the Lease or otherwise, or to any portion of the original
      Premises or any additions to the Premises in the event of a renewal or
      extension of the original Term of the Lease, whether by any options under
      the Lease or otherwise, unless expressly so provided in the Lease or any
      amendment or supplement to the Lease.

                              ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

         This exhibit (this "Exhibit") is attached to and made a part of the
Lease by and between EOP-EMERYVILLE PROPERTIES, L.L.C., A DELAWARE LIMITED
LIABILITY COMPANY ("Landlord") and ZIPREALTY, INC., A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION
("Tenant") for space in the Building located at 2000 Powell Street, Emeryville,

      I.       RENEWAL OPTION.

            A.    Grant of Option; Conditions. Tenant shall have the right to
                  extend the Term (the "Renewal Option") for one additional
                  period of five (5) years commencing on the day following the
                  Termination Date of the initial Term and ending on the fifth
                  annual anniversary of the Termination Date (the "Renewal
                  Term"), if:

                  1.    Landlord receives notice of exercise ("Initial Renewal
                        Notice") not less than 12 full calendar months prior to
                        the expiration of the initial Term and not more than 15
                        full calendar months prior to the expiration of the
                        initial Term;and

                  2.    Tenant is not in default under the Lease beyond any
                        applicable cure periods at the time that Tenant delivers
                        its Initial Renewal Notice or at the time Tenant
                        delivers its Binding Notice (as defined below); and

                  3.    No part of the Premises is sublet (other than pursuant
                        to a Permitted Transfer, as defined in Article XII of
                        the Lease) at the time that Tenant delivers its Initial
                        Renewal Notice or at the time Tenant delivers its
                        Binding Notice; and

                  4.    The Lease has not been assigned (other than pursuant to
                        a Permitted Transfer, as defined in Article XII of the
                        Lease) prior to the date that Tenant delivers its
                        Initial Renewal Notice or prior to the date Tenant
                        delivers its Binding Notice.

            B.    Terms Applicable to Premises During Renewal Term.

                  1.    The initial Base Rent rate per rentable square foot for
                        the Premises during the Renewal Term shall equal the
                        Prevailing Market rate (hereinafter defined) per
                        rentable square foot for the Premises. Base Rent during
                        the Renewal Term shall increase, if at all, in
                        accordance with the increases assumed in the
                        determination of Prevailing Market rate. Base Rent
                        attributable to the Premises shall be payable in monthly
                        installments in accordance with the terms and conditions
                        of Article IV of the Lease.

                  2.    Tenant shall pay Additional Rent (i.e. Taxes and
                        Expenses) for the Premises during the Renewal Term in
                        accordance with the terms of Article IV of the Lease,
                        and the manner and method in which Tenant reimburses
                        Landlord for Tenant's share of Taxes and Expenses and
                        the Base Year, if any, applicable to such matter, shall
                        be some of the factors considered in determining the
                        Prevailing Market rate for the Renewal Term.

            C.    Initial Procedure for Determining Prevailing Market. Within 30
                  days after receipt of Tenant's Initial Renewal Notice,
                  Landlord shall advise Tenant of the applicable Base Rent rate
                  for the Premises for the Renewal Term. Tenant, within 15 days
                  after the date on which Landlord advises Tenant of the
                  applicable Base Rent rate for the Renewal Term, shall either
                  (i) give Landlord final binding written notice ("Binding
                  Notice") of Tenant's exercise of its Renewal Option, or (ii)
                  if Tenant disagrees with Landlord's determination, provide
                  Landlord with written notice of rejection (the "Rejection
                  Notice"). If Tenant fails to provide Landlord with either a
                  Binding Notice or Rejection Notice within such 15 day period,
                  Tenant's Renewal Option shall be null and void and of no
                  further force and effect. If Tenant provides Landlord with a
                  Binding Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into the
                  Renewal Amendment (as defined below) upon the terms and
                  conditions set forth herein. If Tenant provides Landlord with
                  a Rejection Notice, Landlord and

                                       1
<PAGE>

                  Tenant shall work together in good faith to agree upon the
                  Prevailing Market rate for the Premises during the Renewal
                  Term. Upon agreement, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into the
                  Renewal Amendment in accordance with the terms and conditions
                  hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord and Tenant
                  fail to agree upon the Prevailing Market rate within 30 days
                  after the date Tenant provides Landlord with the Rejection
                  Notice, Tenant, by written notice to Landlord (the
                  "Arbitration Notice") within 5 days after the expiration of
                  such 30 day period, shall have the right to have the
                  Prevailing Market rate determined in accordance with the
                  arbitration procedures described in Section D below. If
                  Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon the Prevailing Market
                  rate within the 30 day period described and Tenant fails to
                  timely exercise its right to arbitrate, Tenant's Renewal
                  Option shall be deemed to be null and void and of no further
                  force and effect.

            D.    Arbitration Procedure.

                  1.    If Tenant provides Landlord with an Arbitration Notice,
                        Landlord and Tenant, within 5 days after the date of the
                        Arbitration Notice, shall each simultaneously submit to
                        the other, in a sealed envelope, its good faith estimate
                        of the Prevailing Market rate for the Premises during
                        the Renewal Term (collectively referred to as the
                        "Estimates"). If the higher of such Estimates is not
                        more than 105% of the lower of such Estimates, then
                        Prevailing Market rate shall be the average of the two
                        Estimates. If the Prevailing Market rate is not resolved
                        by the exchange of Estimates, then, within 7 days after
                        the exchange of Estimates, Landlord and Tenant shall
                        each select an appraiser to determine which of the two
                        Estimates most closely reflects the Prevailing Market
                        rate for the Premises during the Renewal Term. Each
                        appraiser so selected shall be certified as an MAI
                        appraiser or as an ASA appraiser and shall have had at
                        least 5 years experience within the previous 10 years as
                        a real estate appraiser working in Alameda County, with
                        working knowledge of current rental rates and practices.
                        For purposes hereof, an "MAI" appraiser means an
                        individual who holds an MAI designation conferred by,
                        and is an independent member of, the American Institute
                        of Real Estate Appraisers (or its successor
                        organization, or in the event there is no successor
                        organization, the organization and designation most
                        similar), and an "ASA" appraiser means an individual who
                        holds the Senior Member designation conferred by, and is
                        an independent member of, the American Society of
                        Appraisers (or its successor organization, or, in the
                        event there is no successor organization, the
                        organization and designation most similar).

                  2.    Upon selection, Landlord's and Tenant's appraisers shall
                        work together in good faith to agree upon which of the
                        two Estimates most closely reflects the Prevailing
                        Market rate for the Premises. The Estimate chosen by
                        such appraisers shall be binding on both Landlord and
                        Tenant as the Base Rent rate for the Premises during the
                        Renewal Term. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to
                        appoint an appraiser within the 7 day period referred to
                        above, the appraiser appointed by the other party shall
                        be the sole appraiser for the purposes hereof. If the
                        two appraisers cannot agree upon which of the two
                        Estimates most closely reflects the Prevailing Market
                        within 20 days after their appointment, then, within 10
                        days after the expiration of such 20 day period, the two
                        appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the
                        aforementioned criteria. Once the third appraiser (i.e.
                        arbitrator) has been selected as provided for above,
                        then, as soon thereafter as practicable but in any case
                        within 14 days, the arbitrator shall make his
                        determination of which of the two Estimates most closely
                        reflects the Prevailing Market rate and such Estimate
                        shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant as the Base
                        Rent rate for the Premises. If the arbitrator believes
                        that expert advice would materially assist him, he may
                        retain one or more qualified persons to provide such
                        expert advice. The parties shall share equally in the
                        costs of the arbitrator and of any experts retained by
                        the arbitrator. Any fees of any appraiser, counsel or
                        experts engaged directly by Landlord or Tenant, however,
                        shall be borne by the party retaining such appraiser,
                        counsel or expert.

                  3.    If the Prevailing Market rate has not been determined by
                        the commencement date of the Renewal Term, Tenant shall
                        pay Base Rent upon the terms and conditions in effect
                        during the last month of the initial Term for the
                        Premises until such time as the Prevailing Market rate
                        has been determined. Upon such determination, the Base
                        Rent for the Premises shall be retroactively adjusted to
                        the commencement of the Renewal Term for the Premises.
                        If such adjustment results in an underpayment of Base
                        Rent by Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of
                        such underpayment within 30 days after the determination
                        thereof. If such adjustment results in an overpayment of
                        Base Rent by Tenant, Landlord shall credit such
                        overpayment against the next installment of Base Rent
                        due under the Lease and, to the extent necessary, any
                        subsequent installments, until the entire amount of such
                        overpayment has been credited against Base Rent.

            E.    Renewal Amendment. If Tenant is entitled to and properly
                  exercises its Renewal Option, Landlord shall prepare an
                  amendment (the "Renewal Amendment") to reflect changes in the
                  Base Rent, Term, Termination Date and other appropriate terms.
                  The Renewal Amendment shall be sent to Tenant within a
                  reasonable time after receipt of the Binding Notice and Tenant
                  shall execute and return the Renewal Amendment to Landlord
                  within 15 days after Tenant's receipt of same, but, upon final
                  determination of the Prevailing Market rate applicable during
                  the Renewal Term as described herein, an otherwise valid
                  exercise of the Renewal Option shall be fully effective
                  whether or not the Renewal Amendment is executed.

            F.    Prevailing Market. For purposes hereof, "Prevailing Market"
                  shall mean the arms length fair market annual rental rate per
                  rentable square foot under renewal leases and amendments
                  entered into on or about the date on which the Prevailing
                  Market is being determined hereunder for space comparable to
                  the Premises in the Building and office buildings comparable
                  to the Building in project known as Watergate Office Towers
                  located in Emeryville, California. The determination of
                  Prevailing Market shall take into account any material
                  economic differences between the terms of this Lease and any
                  comparison lease or amendment, such as rent abatements,
                  construction costs and other concessions and the manner, if
                  any, in which the landlord under any such lease is reimbursed
                  for operating expenses and taxes.

            G.    Subordination. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
                  contrary, Tenant's Renewal Option is subject and subordinate
                  to the expansion rights (whether such rights are designated as
                  a right of first offer, right of first refusal, expansion
                  option or otherwise) of any tenant of the Building existing on
                  the date hereof.

                                    EXHIBIT F

                                PARKING AGREEMENT

      This Exhibit (the "Parking Agreement") is attached to and made a part of
the Lease by and between EOP-EMERYVILLE PROPERTIES, L.L.C., A DELAWARE LIMITED
LIABILITY COMPANY ("Landlord") and ZIPREALTY, INC., A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION
("Tenant") for space in the Building located at 2000 Powell Street, Emeryville,
California

1.    The capitalized terms used in this Parking Agreement shall have the same
      definitions as set forth in the Lease to the extent that such capitalized
      terms are defined therein and not redefined in this Parking Agreement. In
      the event of any conflict between the Lease and this Parking Agreement,
      the latter shall control.

2.    Landlord hereby grants to Tenant and persons designated by Tenant a
      license to use forty-seven (47) non-reserved parking spaces in the parking
      facility ("Parking Facility") located partially beneath the Property. The
      term of such license shall commence on the Commencement Date under the
      Lease and shall continue until the earlier to occur of the Termination
      Date under the Lease, the sooner termination of the Lease, or Tenant's
      abandonment of the Premises thereunder. During the term of this license,
      Tenant shall pay Landlord the prevailing monthly charges established from
      time to time for parking in the Parking Facility, payable in advance, with
      Tenant's payment of monthly Base Rent. The initial charge for such parking
      spaces is $60.00 per non-reserved parking pass, per month. No deductions
      from the monthly charge shall be made for days on which the Parking
      Facility is not used by Tenant. Tenant may, from time to time request
      additional parking spaces, and if Landlord shall provide the same, such
      parking spaces shall be provided and used on a month-to-month basis, and
      otherwise on the foregoing terms and provisions, and at such prevailing
      monthly parking charges as shall be established from time to time.

3.    Tenant shall at all times comply with all applicable ordinances, rules,
      regulations, codes, laws, statutes and requirements of all federal, state,
      county and municipal governmental bodies or their subdivisions respecting
      the use of the Parking Facility. Landlord reserves the right to adopt,
      modify and enforce reasonable rules ("Rules") governing the use of the
      Parking Facility from time to time including any key-card, sticker or
      other identification or entrance system and hours of operation. The rules
      set forth herein are currently in effect. Landlord may refuse to permit
      any person who violates such rules to park in the Parking Facility, and
      any violation of the rules shall subject the car to removal from the
      Parking Facility.

4.    Unless specified to the contrary above, the parking spaces hereunder shall
      be provided on a non-designated "first-come, first-served" basis. Tenant
      acknowledges that Landlord has no liability for claims arising through
      acts or omissions of any independent operator of the Parking Facility.
      Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever for any damage to items
      located in the Parking Facility, nor for any personal injuries or death
      arising out of any matter relating to the Parking Facility, except to the
      extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord,
      and in all events, Tenant agrees to look first to its insurance carrier
      and to make commercially reasonable efforts to require that Tenant's
      employees look first to their respective insurance carriers for payment of
      any losses sustained in connection with any use of the Parking Facility.
      Tenant hereby waives on behalf of its insurance carriers all rights of
      subrogation against Landlord or Landlord's agents. Landlord reserves the
      right to assign specific parking spaces, and to reserve parking spaces for
      visitors, small cars, handicapped persons and for other tenants, guests of
      tenants or other parties, which assignment and reservation or spaces may
      be relocated as determined by Landlord from time to time, and Tenant and
      persons designated by Tenant hereunder shall not park in any location
      designated for such assigned or reserved parking spaces. Tenant
      acknowledges that the Parking Facility may be closed entirely or in part
      in order to make repairs or perform maintenance services, or to alter,
      modify, re-stripe or renovate the Parking Facility, or if required by
      casualty, strike, condemnation, act of God, governmental law or
      requirement or other reason beyond the operator's reasonable control. In
      such event, Landlord shall refund any prepaid parking rent hereunder,
      prorated on a per diem basis. Subject to Landlord's obligation to comply
      with Laws, casualty damage, a Taking, Force Majeure and Landlord's repair
      obligations contained in the Lease, Landlord shall not reduce the number
      of Tenant's non-reserved parking spaces below a total of 47 parking
      spaces.

5.    If Tenant shall default under this Parking Agreement, the operator shall
      have the right to remove from the Parking Facility any vehicles hereunder
      which shall have been involved or shall have been owned or driven by
      parties involved in causing such default, without liability therefor
      whatsoever. In addition, if Tenant shall default under this Parking
      Agreement, Landlord shall have the right to cancel this Parking Agreement
      on 10 days' written notice, unless within such 10 day period, Tenant cures
      such default. If Tenant defaults with respect to the same term or
      condition under this Parking Agreement more than 5 times during any 12
      month period, and Landlord notifies Tenant thereof promptly after each
      such default, the next default of such term or condition during the
      succeeding 12 month period, shall, at Landlord's election, constitute an
      incurable default. Such cancellation right shall be cumulative and in
      addition to any other rights or remedies available to Landlord at law or
      equity, or provided under the Lease (all of which rights and remedies
      under the Lease are hereby incorporated herein, as though fully set
      forth). Any default by Tenant under the Lease shall be a default under
      this Parking Agreement, and any default under this Parking Agreement shall
      be a default under the Lease.

6.    During the initial Term, Tenant shall be entitled to license and use up to
      an additional 47 parking spaces located in the Parking Facility (the
      "Additional Spaces") pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Parking
      Agreement, the Lease and the following:

         a.    In the event Tenant desires to license and use any Additional
               Spaces, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing ("Tenant's
               Parking Exercise Notice") of the specific number of Additional
               Spaces Tenant desires to license and use. Tenant's use of such
               Additional Spaces will be governed by the terms and conditions of
               this Parking Agreement except as otherwise expressly provided
               herein. The charge for such Additional Spaces shall be $85.00 per
               non-reserved pass per month. Landlord shall prepare and both
               parties shall execute an amendment to this Lease (a "Parking
               Amendment") reflecting Tenant's license and use of such
               Additional Spaces.

         b.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in
               any Parking Amendment, if Landlord in its reasonable discretion
               determines that Tenant's license and use of any Additional Spaces
               violates any Law or contravenes any parking rights existing as of
               the date of this Lease of other tenants of the Building or the
               Watergate Office Towers, or other parties, or prevents other
               tenants from receiving the minimum Building standard parking
               allocation (which standard parking allocation is, as of the date
               of this Lease, 2.7 parking spaces per 1,000 rentable square feet
               of premises, or interferes with Landlord's management and
               operation of the Building or the Parking Facilities, Landlord, by
               written notice to Tenant, may terminate Tenant's license to use
               some or all of the Additional Spaces by providing 30 days prior
               written notice in accordance with the terms of the Lease (or such
               shorter period if required by Law). Any such termination shall be
               effective as of the last day of the first full month following
               the date written notice of termination is delivered to Tenant.
               Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the term of
               Tenant's license with respect to any Additional Spaces extend
               beyond the Termination Date. Landlord shall not terminate
               Tenant's license to use any Additional Spaces in an arbitrary
               manner and without making commercially reasonable efforts to
               provide a reasonable solution mutually acceptable to all parties,
               including, without limitation, hiring a valet parking service to
               assist with over parking issues that may arise, provided that the
               cost of such valet service may be included in Expenses pursuant
               to Section IV.C of the Lease.

         c.    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
               Tenant's right to license and use any Additional Spaces is
               subject and subordinate to the requirements of any applicable
               Laws and to the parking rights of any tenant of the Building and
               the Watergate Office Towers project existing on the date hereof.
               Nothing contained herein shall require Landlord to violate any
               provision of any other lease or other agreement to which Landlord
               is a party.

         d.    Tenant's shall continue to have a right to license and use the
               Additional Spaces provided that: (i) At the time Tenant delivers
               to Landlord Tenant's Parking Exercise Notice, Tenant is not in
               default under the Lease beyond any applicable cure periods, and
               (ii) No part of the Premises is sublet (other than pursuant to a
               Permitted Transfer, as defined in Article XII of the Lease) at
               the time that Tenant delivers to Landlord Tenant's Parking
               Exercise Notice; and (iii) The Lease has not been assigned (other
               than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, as defined in

                                       2
<PAGE>

            Article XII of the Lease) prior to the date that Tenant delivers to
            Landlord Tenant's Parking Exercise Notice.

            automobile in the Parking Facility overnight, Tenant shall provide

      (viii)Monthly fees shall be payable in advance prior to the first day of
            each month. Failure to do so will automatically cancel parking
            privileges and a charge at the prevailing daily parking rate will be

            for days on which the Parking Facility is not used by Tenant or its

VACATING THE PREMISES BY THE DATE SPECIFIED IN PARAGRAPH 9C ABOVE DUE TO A
NON-FORCE MAJEURE EVENT, THEN BUYER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO A REDUCTION IN THE
PURCHASE PRICE OF SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS ($750) PER DAY FOR EACH DAY AFTER
JANUARY 16, 2002 THAT SELLER IS LATE IN VACATING THE PREMISES AS LIQUIDATED
DAMAGES AND AS BUYER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR SAID DEFAULT. BUYER AND

TO ACCURATELY DETERMINE AND THAT THE SUBJECT REDUCTION IN THE PURCHASE PRICE IS
UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES FAIR AND ADEQUATE DAMAGES OR COMPENSATION FOR SUCH A
DEFAULT, AND SELLER SHALL HAVE NO OTHER OR FURTHER OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT TO BUYER ON ACCOUNT OF SUCH FAILURE. BY INITIALING THIS PROVISION
IN THE SPACES BELOW, SELLER AND BUYER EACH SPECIFICALLY AFFIRM THEIR RESPECTIVE
AGREEMENTS CONTAINED IN THIS PARAGRAPH.
