EMC CORPORATION                                                    No.  12065
                                                                      ----------
                                     EMC(2)

                             MASTER LEASE AGREEMENT

This MASTER LEASE AGREEMENT (hereinafter called the "Master Agreement") is
entered into by and between EMC Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation
(hereinafter called "Lessor"), having its principal place of business at 171
South Street, Hopkinton, MA 01748, and _____HOMESTEAD.COM INC._____ (hereinafter
called "Lessee"), having a principal place of business at _____3475H EDISON WAY,
MENLO PARK, CALIFORNIA 94025_____.

                                  I. THE LEASE

1.1    LEASE OF EQUIPMENT. In accordance with the terms and conditions of this
       Master Agreement, Lessor agrees to lease to Lessee, and Lessee agrees to
       lease from Lessor, the units of personal property (hereinafter
       individually called a "Unit" and collectively called "Equipment")
       described in supplement(s) which are executed pursuant to and incorporate
       the terms of this Master Agreement (each hereinafter, a "Supplement").
       Each Supplement shall constitute a separate, distinct, and independent
       lease and contractual obligation of Lessee. The term "Lease" as used
       hereinafter shall refer to an individual Supplement which incorporates
       the terms of this Master Agreement. Lessor or its assignee shall retain
       the full legal title to the Equipment, it being expressly agreed by both
       parties that this Master Agreement and each Lease shall constitute an
       agreement of lease only. Each Lease shall be binding upon Lessor and
       Lessee from the date of acceptance and execution of the applicable
       Supplement, by Lessor at its headquarters.

1.2    TERM OF LEASE. The original term of lease for each Unit (hereinafter the
       "Original Term") shall commence on the date specified in the applicable
       Supplement and, subject to Section 2.5 below, shall terminate as
       specified in such Supplement. No Lease may be canceled by Lessee for any
       reason whatsoever.

1.3    DISCLAIMERS; WARRANTIES. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT LESSOR MAKES
       NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO LESSEE'S
       USE OR OPERATION OF THE EQUIPMENT. LESSOR EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS THE IMPLIED
       WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE FOR
       THE EQUIPMENT OR OTHER PRODUCTS, DOCUMENTATION AND SERVICES PROVIDED
       HEREIN. IN NO EVENT SHALL LESSOR BE LIABILE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
       INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR ASSOCIATED WITH THE
       EQUIPMENT OR THE LEASE THEREOF EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
       DAMAGES.

1.4    RENTAL PAYMENTS. Lessee shall pay rental to Lessor for the Unit(s) in the
       amounts and on the dates specified in the applicable Supplement. If any
       rental or other amount due

<PAGE>

       hereunder is not paid within five (5) days of the due date thereof,
       Lessee shall pay to Lessor on demand, as additional rental, interest
       thereon from the due date until payment at a rate equal to the lesser of
       (i) eighteen (18%) per annum, or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by law.
       All rental and other amounts payable by Lessee to Lessor hereunder shall
       be paid to Lessor at the address specified above, or at such other place
       as Lessor may designate in writing to Lessee. Time is of the essence with
       respect to all of Lessee's obligations under any Lease.

1.5    RETURN OF EQUIPMENT. Upon expiration of the Original Term, Lessee will
       immediately return the Equipment to Lessor as provided in Section 2.3
       below. Should Lessee not return the Equipment at the end of the Original
       Term, the Equipment shall continue to be held and leased hereunder, and
       the Lease shall thereupon be extended for successive three (3) month
       terms, at the same monthly rental, subject to the right of either Lessee
       or the Lessor to terminate the Lease upon ninety (90) days written
       notice, whereupon the Lessee shall forthwith deliver the Equipment to the
       Lessor. If Lessee fails to return the Equipment upon demand therefor by
       Lessor, Lessee shall pay Lessor, as the reasonable measure of Lessor's
       damages, the value, at replacement cost, of the Equipment so converted.

                            II. COVENANTS OF LESSEE

2.1    PAYMENT OF RENTAL AND OTHER MONIES. Each lease is a net lease and Lessee
       acknowledges and agrees that Lessee's obligation to pay all rental and
       other sums payable hereunder, and the rights of Lessor in and to such
       payments, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to
       any abatement, reduction, setoff, counterclaim or other defense for any
       reason whatsoever. It being the intent of Lessor, and an inducement to
       Lessor, to enter into the Lease, to claim all available tax benefits of
       ownership with respect to the Equipment, Lessee acknowledges and agrees
       that (i) no right, title or interest in the Equipment has been or is
       intended to be passed to Lessee, other than the right to maintain
       possession and use of the Equipment for the Original Term, conditioned on
       Lessee's performance of the terms and conditions of the Lease, (ii)
       Lessee has not taken and will not at any time during the Original Term
       take any action which shall cause Lessor to lose any tax benefits of
       ownership, and (iii) the Stipulated Loss Values (defined in the
       applicable Lease) agreed to under this Lease are intended to provide
       recovery by Lessor of such lost tax benefits of ownership.

2.1.1  ACCEPTANCE OF EQUIPMENT. Lessee's acceptance of the Equipment shall be
       conclusively and irrevocably evidenced by Lessee executing the
       Certificate of Delivery and Acceptance and upon acceptance the Lease of
       such Equipment shall be noncancellable for the Original Term unless
       otherwise agreed to in writing by Lessor.

2.2    USE OF EQUIPMENT. Lessee shall use the Equipment solely in the conduct of
       its business, in a manner and for the use contemplated by the
       manufacturer thereof, and in compliance with all laws, rules and
       regulations of every governmental authority having jurisdiction over the
       Equipment and with the provisions of all policies of insurance carried by
       Lessee pursuant to Section 2.6 below; provided, however, Lessee shall
       have the right to allow third parties, under Lessee's supervision, to use
       the Equipment, so long as Lessee shall

<PAGE>

       retain uninterrupted possession and control of the Equipment. Lessee
       shall pay all costs, expenses, fees and charges incurred in connection
       with the use and operation of the Equipment.

2.3    DELIVERY, INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR. Lessee shall be solely
       responsible, at its own expense, for the delivery of the Equipment to
       Lessee, the packing, rigging and delivery of the Equipment back to Lessor
       upon expiration of the Original Term in good repair, condition, and
       working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted, at the location(s) within
       the continental United States specified by Lessor. Lessee is also solely
       responsible for the installation, de-installation, maintenance and repair
       of the Equipment. Lessee shall, at its expense, (a) keep the Equipment in
       good repair, condition and working order, ordinary wear and tear
       excepted, and (b) at the expiration of the Original Term or any renewal
       term have the Equipment inspected and certified as acceptable for
       maintenance service by the manufacturer. Lessor shall be entitled to
       inspect the Equipment at Lessee's location at reasonable times.

2.4    TAXES. Lessee agrees to pay, and to indemnify and hold Lessor harmless
       from, all license fees, assessments, and sales, use, property, excise and
       other taxes and charges ("Imposts") (other than those measured by
       Lessor's net income) now or hereafter imposed by any governmental body or
       agency upon or with respect to (a) the Equipment or the possession,
       ownership, use or operation thereof or (b) this Master Agreement, any
       Lease, or the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated. All
       required personal property tax returns relating to the Equipment shall be
       filed by Lessee unless otherwise provided in writing. Lessee shall
       reimburse Lessor promptly upon demand for the amount of any Imposts
       remitted by Lessor which are required hereunder to be borne by Lessee.

2.5    LOSS OF EQUIPMENT. Lessee shall bear the entire risk of the Equipment
       being lost, destroyed or otherwise rendered permanently unfit or
       unavailable for use from any cause whatsoever (hereinafter called an
       "Event of Loss") after its delivery to Lessee. If an Event of Loss shall
       occur with respect to any Unit, Lessee shall promptly and fully notify
       Lessor thereof. On the rental payment date following such notice Lessee
       shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to the rental payment or payments due
       and payable for such Unit on such date plus a sum equal to the Stipulated
       Loss Value (as defined in the applicable Supplement) of such Unit as of
       the date of such payment set forth in such Supplement. Upon the making of
       such payment by Lessee regarding any Unit, the rental obligation for such
       Unit shall cease, the Lease as to such Unit shall terminate and (except
       in the case of loss, theft or complete destruction) Lessor shall be
       entitled to recover possession of such Unit at Lessee's expense in
       accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3 above. Provided that Lessor
       has received the Stipulated Loss Value for any Unit, Lessee shall be
       entitled to the proceeds of any recovery in respect of such Unit from
       insurance or otherwise.

2.6    INSURANCE. Lessee shall obtain and maintain for the entire term of the
       Lease, at its own expense, property damage and liability insurance and
       insurance against loss or damage to the Equipment including, without
       limitation, loss by fire (including so-called extended coverage), theft
       and such other risks of loss as are required on the type of Equipment

<PAGE>

       leased hereunder and by businesses in which Lessee is engaged in such
       amounts in such form and with such insurers as shall be satisfactory to
       Lessor, provided however, that such insurance for loss or damage of any
       Unit shall always be at a minimum, the amount of the Stipulated Loss
       Value of such Unit. Each insurance policy will name Lessee as insured and
       Lessor as an additional insured and loss payee thereof as Lessor's
       interests may appear and shall provide that it may not be canceled or
       altered without at least 30 days prior written notice to Lessor or its
       successors and assigns. Lessee shall provide to Lessor a certificate of
       insurance as evidence of insurance coverage prior to delivery of any
       Unit.

2.7    INDEMNITY. Lessee shall and does hereby indemnify Lessor and its
       successors and assigns against, and hold Lessor and its successors and
       assigns harmless from, any and all claims, demands, actions and suits,
       proceedings, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities, including
       reasonable attorneys' fees, hereinafter ("Claims"), arising out of,
       connected with or resulting from this Master Agreement, any Lease, or the
       Equipment, including, without limitation, the selection, ownership,
       control, maintenance, lease, purchase, delivery, possession, condition,
       use, operation, or return of the Equipment. Lessee shall give Lessor
       immediate notice of any Claim and Lessee shall satisfy, pay and discharge
       any and all judgments and fines that may be recovered against Lessor in
       connection with any such Claim. Lessor shall give Lessee written notice
       of any such Claim of which Lessor has knowledge.

2.8    POSSESSION; ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE. Without the prior written consent of
       Lessor, which such consent as it pertains to subsections (a) and (d),
       shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Lessee shall not (a)
       sublease the Equipment, or any part thereof, provided, that Lessee may,
       without the prior written consent of Lessor, permit any parent or
       subsidiary of Lessee to use the Equipment, or any part thereof, in the
       ordinary course of its business, (b) assign, this Master Agreement or any
       Lease or its interest hereunder or thereafter, (c) create or incur any
       lien or encumbrance with respect to the Equipment, or any part thereof,
       (d) move the Equipment, or any part thereof, or permit any of the
       Equipment to be moved from the location at which it is first installed,
       or (e) permit the Equipment, or any part thereof, to be removed outside
       the continental limits of the United States.

2.9    IDENTIFICATION. At any time during the term of a Lease, Lessor may
       require Lessee to legibly mark each Unit subject to such Lease in a
       reasonably prominent location with a label, disc or other marking stating
       that the Equipment is owned by Lessor.

2.10   ALTERATIONS OR MODIFICATIONS. Lessee shall not make any alterations of or
       additions to the Equipment without the prior written consent of Lessor.
       At any time during the Original Term, of any Lease there may be added to
       such Lease additional Units of the same type as are rented thereunder for
       a term equal to the remaining Original Term and, subject to the terms and
       conditions hereof, at the rental rates applicable to such Equipment and
       team in effect at the time the order is placed, provided that the order
       is in writing and accepted by Lessor. Such acceptance shall be at the
       sole discretion of Lessor. All additions, attachments or accessories to
       or improvements of the Equipment shall immediately belong to and become
       property of the Lessor unless, at the request of Lessor,

<PAGE>

       such additions, attachments or accessories to or improvements of the
       Equipment are removed prior to the return of said Equipment by Lessee.
       Lessee shall be responsible for the costs of such removal and shall
       restore the Equipment to the same operating condition as when it became
       subject to the Lease.

2.11   EQUIPMENT TO BE PERSONAL PROPERTY. Lessee agrees that the Equipment shall
       be and remain personal property notwithstanding the manner in which it
       may be attached or affixed to realty, and Lessee shall do all acts and
       enter into all agreements necessary to ensure that the Equipment remains
       personal property.

2.12   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Lessee shall promptly furnish, or cause to be
       furnished, to Lessor such financial or other statements respecting the
       condition and operations of Lessee or respecting the Equipment as Lessor
       may from time to time reasonably request.

2.13   LESSEE REPRESENTATIONS. Lessee hereby represents, warrants and covenants
       that with respect to this Master Agreement and each Lease entered into
       hereunder:

       (A)    The execution, delivery and performance thereof by the Lessee have
              been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action;

       (B)    The individual executing such was duly authorized to do so;

       (C)    This Master Agreement and each Lease constitute the legal, valid
              and binding obligations of the Lessee enforceable in accordance
              with their respective terms.

                           III. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

3.1    EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following shall
       constitute an Event of Default hereunder: (a) Lessee shall fail to pay on
       the due date any rental or other payment due under any lease, (b) any
       provision of this Master Agreement or any Lease or any provision in any
       document provided by Lessee for this Master Agreement or any Lease, or in
       any document furnished pursuant to the provisions hereof or otherwise,
       shall prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect as
       of the date when it was made, (c) Lessee shall fail to perform any
       provision, covenant, condition or agreement made by it under this Master
       Agreement or Lease, and such failure shall continue for ten (10) days
       after notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee or (d) bankruptcy,
       receivership, insolvency, reorganization, dissolution, liquidation, or
       other similar proceedings shall be instituted by or against Lessee or all
       or any part of its property under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or other
       law of the United States or of any state law, and if against Lessee it
       shall consent thereto or shall fail to cause the same to be discharged
       within twenty (20) days, or (e) Lessee shall default under my agreement
       with respect to the purchase or installation of the Equipment, or (f) if
       Lessee or any guarantor of Lessee's obligations hereunder shall default
       under any other agreement with Lessor.

3.2    REMEDIES. If an Event of Default hereunder shall occur and be continuing,
       Lessor may exercise any one or more of the following remedies: (a)
       immediately terminate this Master Agreement and any or all Leases and
       Lessee's rights hereunder and thereunder, (b) proceed, by appropriate
       court action or actions either at law or in equity, to enforce

<PAGE>

       performance by Lessee of the applicable covenants of the Lease or to
       recover damages for the breach thereof, (c) by notice in writing to
       Lessee, recover all amounts due on or before the date of the event of
       default, plus, as liquidated damages for loss of a bargain and not as a
       penalty, accelerate, and declare to be immediately due and payable all
       rentals and other sums payable trader any or all such Leases, without any
       presentment, demand, protest or further notice (all of which hereby are
       expressly waived by Lessee), whereupon the same shall be and become
       immediately due and payable, and (d) personally, or by its agents take
       immediate possession of the Equipment, or any part thereof, from Lessee
       and for such purpose, enter upon Lessee's premises where any of the
       Equipment is located with or without notice or process of law and free
       from all claims by Lessee. The exercise of any of the foregoing remedies
       by Lessor shall not constitute a termination of any Lease unless Lessor
       so notifies Lessee in writing.

3.3    DISPOSITION OF EQUIPMENT. In the event Lessor repossesses Equipment,
       Lessor may (a) lease the Equipment, or any portion thereof, in such a
       manner, for such time and upon such term(s) as Lessor may determine or
       (b) sell the Equipment, or any portion thereof, at one or more public or
       private sales, in such manner, and at such times and upon such terms as
       Lessor may determine. In the event that Lessor leases any such Units, any
       rentals received by Lessor for the Remaining Lease Term(s) (the period
       ending on the date when the Original Term for the Unit(s) would have
       expired if an Event of Default had not occurred) for such Units shall be
       applied to the payment of (i) all costs and expenses (including
       attorneys' fees) incurred by Lessor in retaking possession of, and
       removing, storing, repairing, refurbishing and leasing such Units, and
       (ii) the rentals for the remainder of the Original Term and all other
       sums, including past due rentals, remaining unpaid under the Lease. The
       balance of such rentals, if any, shall be applied first to reimburse
       Lessee for any amounts previously paid by Lessee as liquidated damages,
       and any remaining amounts shall be retained by Lessor. All rentals
       received by Lessor for the period commencing after the expiration of the
       Remaining Lease Term(s) shall be retained by Lessor. Lessee shall remain
       liable to Lessor to the extent that the aggregate amount of the sums
       referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall exceed the aggregate
       rentals received by Lessor under such leases for the respective Remaining
       Lease Term(s) applicable to the Units covered by such leases. In the
       event that Lessor shall sell or otherwise dispose of (other than pursuant
       to a lease) any such Unit, the proceeds thereof shall be applied to the
       payment of (i) all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys'
       fees) incurred by Lessor in retaking possession of, and removing,
       storing, repairing, refurbishing and selling or otherwise disposing of
       such Unit(s), (ii) the rentals that either did or would have accrued
       under the Lease but are unpaid up to the time of such sale or other
       disposition, (iii) any and all other sums (other than rentals) then owing
       to Lessor by Lessee under, and (iv) the Stipulated Loss Value of such
       Unit(s) determined as of the date of such sales or other disposition in
       accordance with the schedule set forth in the Lease for such Unit(s). The
       balance of such proceeds, if any, shall be applied first to reimburse
       Lessee for any sums previously paid by Lessee as liquidated damages, and
       any remaining amount shall be retained by Lessor. Lessee shall remain
       liable to Lessor to the extent that the aggregate amount of the sums
       referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) above shall exceed the aggregate
       proceeds received by Lessor in connection with the sale or disposition of
       the Equipment (other than pursuant to a lease).

                               IV. MISCELLANEOUS

4.1    PERFORMANCE OF LESSEE'S OBLIGATIONS. Upon Lessee's failure to pay any sum
       or perform any obligation hereunder when due, Lessor shall have the
       option, but shall in no case be obligated, to pay such sum or perform
       such obligation, whereupon such sum or the cost of such performance shall
       immediately become due and payable as additional rent from Lessee to
       Lessor with interest at the highest legal rate from the date payment or
       performance was due.

4.2    ASSIGNMENT. No right, obligation or interest of Lessee with respect to
       this Master Agreement, any Lease or Equipment shall, without the prior
       written consent of Lessor, be assignable by Lessee or by operation of
       law, and any such purported assignment, transfer or succession shall be
       null and void. Lessor may, at anytime, without the consent of Lessee,
       assign the Master Agreement and any Lease or any interest herein or
       therein to any party. In the event of any assignment of Lessor, the
       assignee shall have all of Lessor's rights hereunder, but none of its
       obligations, and upon receipt by Lessee of written notice of any such
       assignment, Lessee shall make all payments thereafter becoming due under
       any assigned Lease to such assignee without regard to any set-off,
       defense or counter claim that Lessee may have against Lessor.

4.3    QUIET ENJOYMENT. So long as Lessee shall not be in default hereunder and
       Lessor continues to receive all rent and other sums payable by Levee
       hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof, neither Lessor nor its
       assignee, shall interfere with Lessee's right of quiet enjoyment and use
       of the Equipment.

4.4    FURTHER ASSURANCES. Lessee agrees that at any time, and from time to
       time, after the execution and delivery of this Lease, it shall, upon the
       request of Lessor, execute and deliver such further documents and do such
       further acts and things as Lessor may reasonably request in order fully
       to effect the purposes of this Lease including without limitation, the
       filing of financial and confirmation statements. Lessee authorizes Lessor
       to file a financing statement signed or any confirmation statements
       signed only by Lessor in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code or
       signed by Lessor as Lessee's attorney in fact.

4.5    RIGHTS, REMEDIES, POWERS. Each and every right, remedy and power granted
       to Lessor hereunder shall be cumulative and in addition to any other
       right, remedy or power herein specifically granted or now or hereafter
       existing in equity, at law, by virtue of statute or otherwise, and may be
       exercised by Lessor from time to time concurrently or independently and
       as often and in such order as Lessor may deem expedient. And any failure
       or delay on the part of Lessor in exercising any such right, remedy or
       power, or abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce the same,
       shall not operate as a waiver thereof or affect Lessor's right thereafter
       to exercise the same, and any single or partial exercise of any such
       right, remedy or power shall not preclude any other or further exercise
       thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy or power.

4.6    NOTICES. Any notice request, demand, consent, approval or other
       communication provided or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and
       shall be conclusively deemed to

<PAGE>

       have been received by a party hereto on the day it is delivered to such
       party at its address set forth above (or at such other address as such
       party shall specify to the other party in writing), or if sent by
       registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, on the third
       business day after the day on which totaled, addressed to such party at
       such address.

4.7    SECTION HEADINGS. Section headings are inserted for convenience only and
       shall not affect any construction or interpretation of any Lease.

4.8    BINDING EFFECT. Each Lease, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.8 and
       4.3 hereof, shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the
       respective successors and assigns of the Lessee and Lessor.
