NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the mutual covenants contained
herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt and legal
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, for themselves
and their respective successors and assigns, hereby agree as follows:
 
1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings
ascribed to them in the Lease, unless otherwise defined herein.
 
2. Substitute Space. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby hires
from Landlord, that portion of the twenty-fourth (24th) floor of the Building
indicated by the hatching on the floor plan annexed hereto as Exhibit "A" and
made a part hereof (the "Substitute Space") and designated as Suite No. 2400,
upon all of the same terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Lease,
except as modified herein, for a term (a) commencing on the date (the
"Substitute Space Effective Date") on which this Amendment is fully executed and
unconditionally delivered by the parties hereto and (b) ending (unless such term
is sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of the Lease or by law) on the date
(the "Fixed Expiration Date") which is (a) the day immediately preceding the
seventh (7th) anniversary of the Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date
(hereinafter defined) if the Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date is the
first day of the month or (b) the last day of the month in which the seventh
(7th) anniversary of the Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date shall occur if
the Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date is not the first day of the month.
The Fixed Expiration Date of the Term of the Lease is hereby changed from April
30, 2007, to the Fixed Expiration Date defined in the immediately preceding
sentence. As used in this Amendment, the term "Substitute Space Rent
Commencement Date" shall mean the date which is the earlier of (a) the
Relocation Date (hereinafter defined) and (b) the date which is sixty (60) days
after the Substitute Space Effective Date. Provided that Tenant is not then in
default hereunder beyond any applicable grace, notice or cure period, payment of
the Fixed Rent for the Substitute Space, exclusive of the Electricity Inclusion
Factor for the Substitute Space, shall be abated for the period from the
Substitute Space Effective Date through the date immediately preceding the
Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date. If the Substitute Space Rent
Commencement Date shall occur on a date other than the first (1st) day of any
calendar month, on the Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay
to Landlord a sum equal to One Thousand, One Hundred Sixty and 07/100
($1,160.07) Dollars, multiplied by the number of calendar days in the period
from the Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date to the last day of the month in
which the Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date shall occur, both dates
inclusive, as Fixed Rent, inclusive of the Electricity Inclusion Factor, for the
Substitute Space for such period. Promptly following the Substitute Space Rent
Commencement Date, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an agreement confirming
the Substitute Space Effective Date, the Substitute Space Rent Commencement
Date, and the Fixed Expiration Date, provided, however, the failure to execute
and deliver such agreement shall not affect the validity of the Substitute Space
Effective Date, the Substitute Space Rent Commencement Date, or the Fixed
Expiration Date as set forth herein.

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

 
3. Condition of the Substitute Space. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has made
and makes no representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, to
Tenant with respect to the condition of the Substitute Space. Tenant further
acknowledges that it has inspected, and is fully familiar with, the condition of
the Substitute Space, agrees to accept the Substitute Space in the condition
existing on the Substitute Space Effective Date, and further agrees that
Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, improve, paint, decorate or
otherwise prepare the Substitute Space for Tenant's initial occupancy.
 
4. Landlord's Contribution to Tenant's Alterations within the Substitute Space.
 
A. Promptly after the date hereof, subject to the provisions of Article 3 and
Section 37(C)(1) of the Lease, Tenant, at Tenant's own cost and expense, shall
prepare and deliver to Landlord, preliminary drawings and specifications for
Landlord's approval, which approval shall be granted or denied within ten (10)
Business Days after Landlord shall have received such preliminary drawings and
specifications and any other relevant information Landlord may reasonably
request, and, promptly after Landlord's approval thereof pursuant to the
provisions of said Section 37(C)(1), detailed working drawings and
specifications for Landlord's approval, which approval shall be granted or
denied within ten (10) Business Days after Landlord shall have received such
detailed working drawings and specifications and any other relevant information
Landlord may reasonably request, for the work to be performed by Tenant within
the Substitute Space to prepare the Substitute Space for Tenant's occupancy
(hereinafter referred to as the "Tenant's Alterations"). After Landlord's
approval of such preliminary, and then detailed working, drawings and
specifications, Tenant's Alterations shall be performed by Tenant subject to,
and in accordance with, all applicable provisions of the Lease, including,
without limitation, the provisions of Articles 3 and 37C(1) thereof. Landlord
shall contribute, pursuant to the provisions of this Article 4, an amount not to
exceed Forty-One Thousand, One Hundred and 00/100 ($41,100.00) Dollars (the
"Tenant Fund") towards the "hard costs" of Tenant's Alterations. The term "hard
costs," as used in this Article 4, shall be deemed to exclude (a) any and all
costs and expenses of relocating to the Substitute Space Tenant's office
furniture, furnishings, equipment and other personal property then existing in
the Original Premises and relocating, furnishing and installing telephone and
computer systems, any other telecommunication wiring and equipment, security
system, and access system, if any, and (b) any and all "soft costs" in
connection with Tenant's Alterations, including, without limitation, (i) any and
all architectural, engineering, designing, and decorating fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of any and all
drawings and specifications for Tenant's Alterations and the review and
supervision of the performance of Tenant's Alterations, (ii) any and all
attorneys' fees and disbursements in connection with the preparation, execution
and delivery of this Amendment and the preparation for, and performance of,
Tenant's Alterations, (iii) any and all permit application costs, filing fees,
and related expenses in connection with filing all drawings and specifications
for Tenant's Alterations with the appropriate Governmental Authorities, and (iv)
any and all fees for expediter services pertaining to obtaining necessary
permits and approvals in connection with the performance of Tenant's
Alterations. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing costs and
expenses excluded from "hard costs" shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant
and that no portion of any such costs and expenses shall be paid for out of the
Tenant Fund.
 
- 4 -

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

 
B. Landlord shall disburse a portion of the Tenant Fund to Tenant from time to
time, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the items set forth in Section
4.C hereof, provided that, on the date of a request and on the date of
disbursement from the Tenant Fund, no event of default hereunder on the part of
Tenant shall have occurred and be continuing beyond any applicable grace,
notice, or cure period. Disburse-ments from the Tenant Fund shall not be made
more frequently than monthly and shall not exceed the amounts theretofore paid
by Tenant (as certified by the Chief Financial Officer of Tenant and Tenant's
inde-pendent, licensed architect) to contractors, subcontractors and materialmen
with respect to the portion of Tenant's Alterations theretofore com-pleted and
for which the disbursements were requested.
 
C. Landlord's obligation to make disburse-ments from the Tenant Fund shall be
subject to Landlord's receipt of: (a) a request for such disbursement from
Tenant signed by the Chief Financial Officer of Tenant, (b) copies of all
receipts, paid invoices and paid bills for the work completed and materials
furnished in connection with Tenant's Alterations and incorporated in the
Substitute Space and for the prior payment of which Tenant seeks reimbursement
from the requested disbursement, (c) copies of all contracts, work orders,
change orders and other materials relating to the work or materials which are
the subject of the requested disbursement, and (d) a certificate of Tenant's
independent, licensed architect stating, in his opinion, that the portion of
Tenant's Alterations theretofore completed and for which the disbursement is
requested was performed in a good and work-manlike manner and substantially in
accordance with the final detailed plans and specifications for such Tenant's
Alterations, as approved by Landlord.
 
- 5 -

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

 
   D. In no event shall the aggregate amount paid by Landlord to Tenant under
this Article 4 exceed the amount of the Tenant Fund. Upon the completion of
Tenant's Alterations and satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.E
hereof, any amount of the Tenant Fund which has not been previously disbursed
shall be retained by Landlord. Upon the disbursement of the entire Tenant Fund
(or the portion thereof if, upon completion of Tenant's Alterations, the Tenant
Fund is not exhausted), Landlord shall have no further obligation or liability
whatsoever to Tenant for further disbursement of any portion of the Tenant Fund
to Tenant. It is expressly understood and agreed that Tenant shall com-plete, at
its sole cost and expense, Tenant's Alterations, whether or not the Tenant Fund
is sufficient to fund such completion. Any costs to complete Tenant's
Alterations in excess of the Tenant Fund shall be the sole responsibility and
obligation of Tenant.
 
- 6 -

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

 
E. Within thirty (30) days after com-pletion of Tenant's Alterations, Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord (i) general releases and waivers of lien from all
con-tractors, subcontractors and materialmen involved in the performance of
Tenant's Alterations and the materials furnished in con-nec-tion therewith, (ii)
a certificate from Tenant's indepen-dent, licensed architect certifying that
Tenant's Alterations have been completed substantially in accordance with the
plans and specifications therefor approved by Landlord, and (iii) a certificate
from a duly authorized officer of Tenant certifying that all contractors,
subcontractors and material-men have been paid for Tenant's Alterations and
materials furnished through such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant
shall not be required to deliver to Landlord any general release or waiver of
lien if Tenant shall be disputing in good faith the payment which would
otherwise entitle Tenant to such release or waiver, provided that Tenant shall
keep Landlord advised in a timely fashion of the status of such dispute and the
basis therefor and Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the general release and
waiver of lien when the dispute is settled. Nothing contained in this Section
4.E, however, shall relieve Tenant from complying with the provi-sions of
Articles 3 and 37C(1) of the Lease.
 
F. Within thirty (30) days after the completion of Tenant's Alterations, Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord a full set of architectural, structural, mechanical
and electrical drawings and specifications showing the Tenant's Alterations "as
built" by the performance of Tenant's Alterations.
 
5. Tenant's Relocation. Tenant hereby agrees to vacate the Original Premises, to
surrender the same to Landlord vacant, broom-clean, free of tenants and any
other occupants, and free of rights of possession by any person or other entity,
and in good order and condition, ordinary wear and tear and damage for which
Tenant is not responsible under the terms of the Lease excepted, and otherwise
in compliance with the provisions of Articles 3 and 22 of the Lease as if the
Original Premises were being surrendered at the end of the Term, and to relocate
to the Substitute Space on the date (the "Relocation Date") which shall be
designated by Tenant upon at least ten (10) days' prior written notice to
Landlord, provided that the Relocation Date shall in no event be later than one
hundred twenty (120) days immediately after the Substitute Space Effective Date,
such time within which Tenant must relocate to the Substitute Space being of the
essence of this Amendment, subject, however, only to Unavoidable Delays (as such
term is defined in Article 37B(13) of the Lease, except that, wherever in said
Article 37B(13) the word "Owner" appears, such word shall be deemed to be
replaced by the word "Tenant" solely for purposes of this Article 5). On the
Relocation Date, Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, will move from the
Original Premises to the Substitute Space all of the Tenant's office furniture,
furnishings, equipment, telephone and computer systems, and other personal
property then existing in the Original Premises. In the event that any such
Unavoidable Delay shall prevent Tenant from relocating from the Original
Premises to the Substitute Space within said one hundred twenty (120) day period
immediately after the Substitute Space Effective Date, Tenant shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to relocate from the Original Premises to the
Substitute Space as promptly as possible after the cessation of such Unavoidable
Delay. The failure or refusal of Tenant to relocate from the Original Premises
to the Substitute Space within said period of time and in the manner, as
aforesaid, shall be deemed to be a material breach of the terms and conditions
of the Lease. Without limiting any rights and remedies which Landlord may have
if Tenant should fail or refuse to move from the Original Premises to the
Substitute Space within such period of time and in such manner, Tenant agrees
that Landlord shall be entitled to specific performance to require Tenant to
relocate from the Original Premises to the Substitute Space pursuant to the
provisions of this Article 5.
 
- 7 -

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

 
6. Original Premises. Effective from and after the date hereof through and
including the Relocation Date on which Tenant shall have vacated the Original
Premises and surrendered same to Landlord in compliance with the provisions of
Article 5 hereof, Tenant shall continue to lease the Original Premises from
Landlord upon all of the same terms, conditions and provisions of the Lease
which apply to the Original Premises.
 
7. Modifications of the Lease. Effective from and after the Substitute Space
Effective Date, the Lease shall be modified and amended as follows:
 
A. The Substitute Space shall be added to, and deemed a part of, the Demised
Premises for all purposes of the Lease, so that the premises leased under the
Lease shall include the Substitute Space. In addition, from and after the date
hereof through and including the Relocation Date on which Tenant shall have
vacated the Original Premises and surrendered same to Landlord in compliance
with the provisions of Article 5 hereof, the Original Premises shall continue to
be part of the Demised Premises leased under the Lease. From and after the day
immediately following the Relocation Date and Tenant's compliance with the
provisions of said Article 5, the Lease shall no longer apply to the Original
Premises, except with respect to Tenant's obligations and liabilities which
accrued under the Lease or this Amendment with respect to the Original Premises
for any period up to and including the Relocation Date on which Tenant shall
have vacated the Original Premises and surrendered same to Landlord in
compliance with the provisions of Article 5 hereof.

Thousand, Five Hundred Ninety-Four and 00/100 ($279,594.00) Dollars, together
with interest then accrued thereon, Tenant, upon demand, shall deposit with
Owner additional security in a sum equal to the amount so applied or retained so
that Owner shall have said full security deposit, with accrued interest, on hand
at all times during the Term of this Lease. The failure or refusal by Tenant to
deposit such additional security demanded by Owner shall be deemed a material
default hereunder and shall entitle Owner to exercise any and all remedies
provided hereunder in the event of a default in the payment of rent."

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

(iii)  Section 55C shall remain unchanged, except that the parties acknowledge

9. Additional Security Deposit. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery
of this Amendment, Tenant has deposited with Landlord additional security in the
sum of Ninety-Nine Thousand, Nine Hundred Sixty and 00/100 ($99,960.00) Dollars.
Such additional security deposit shall be added to the previously deposited
security, which had been reduced, pursuant to Article 55C of the Lease, to the
sum of One Hundred Seventy-Nine Thousand, Six Hundred Thirty-Four and 00/100
($179,634.00) Dollars, together with interest accrued thereon, and the aggregate

Amendment and that no broker, finder, or like agent, other than the Brokers,
negotiated this Amendment or, to the best of Tenant's knowledge, is entitled to
any brokerage commis-sion, finder's fee, or other compensation in connection
therewith. The execution and delivery of this Amendment by Landlord shall be
conclusive evidence that Landlord has relied upon the foregoing representations
and warranties. Tenant shall in-demnify and hold Landlord harmless from and
against any and all claims for commission, fee or other compensation by any
broker, finder, or like agent, other than the Brokers, who shall claim to have
dealt with Tenant in connec-tion with this Amendment and for any and all costs
and expenses incurred by Landlord in connec-tion with such claims, includ-ing,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disburse-ments. The
provisions of this Article 10 shall survive the expiration or prior termination
of this Amendment.
 
11. Telecommunication Services. Landlord allows or may allow certain providers
of voice, data and video telecommunications services or infrastructure to offer
their services or facilities (collectively, "Telecommunications Services") to
Tenant at the Premises pursuant to agreements with the Landlord, solely as an
amenity for Tenant. Should Tenant wish to use any such Telecommunications
Services, it shall enter into a separate agreement with the provider of such
services (each, a "Service Agreement"). The availability of Telecommunications
Services at the Premises shall not be construed as an endorsement, sponsorship
or recommendation by Landlord to Tenant of any such services and, in particular,
shall not be construed as a warranty, express or implied, of any
Telecommunications Services or the provider of such services. Tenant
acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall any interruption, delay or
failure of any Telecommunications Services, loss of data or other
telecommunications transmission, or any act or omission, whether intentional or
