                            RENT AND OTHER CHARGES

     3.1.  BASE RENT.

     Tenant shall pay as base rent (the "BASE RENT") the amount set forth in
Exhibit "B" attached hereto multiplied by the amount of square feet contained in
the Premises, as the same may be increased in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.6 hereof.  Base Rent shall be payable in advance in equal monthly
installments commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on
the first day of each subsequent calendar month.  Base Rent for any period
during the Lease Term which is less than one (1) month shall be a pro-rata
portion of the applicable monthly installment.

     3.2.            PAYMENT OF IMPOSITIONS.

     (a) Tenant shall deposit with Landlord monthly (as a deposit and not a
payment) commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on the
first day of each subsequent calendar month an amount equal to Tenant's Share of
one-twelfth of the annual Impositions estimated by Landlord and communicated by
Landlord to Tenant in writing so that Landlord shall have sufficient funds to
pay the Impositions on the first day of the month preceding the month in which
they become due.  To the extent within Tenant's control, Tenant further agrees
to cause all bills, statements or other documents relating to Impositions to be
sent or mailed directly to Landlord.  Provided Tenant has deposited sufficient
funds with Landlord pursuant to this Section 3.2(a), Landlord shall pay, when
due, such Impositions as may be due out of the funds so deposited with Landlord.
If at any time and for any reason the funds deposited with Landlord are or will
be insufficient to pay such Impositions as may then or subsequently be due,
Landlord shall notify Tenant and Tenant shall deposit an amount equal to such
deficiency with Landlord within seven (7) days after such notice.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall cause Landlord to
be obligated to pay any amounts in excess of the amount of funds deposited with
Landlord pursuant to this Section 3.2(a).  If amounts collected by Landlord
under this Section 3.2(a) exceed amounts necessary in order to pay Impositions,
Landlord shall retain such excess payments and Tenant shall receive a credit for
such excess amount toward the next payments due for such Impositions.  Should
Tenant fail to deposit with Landlord sums sufficient to pay such Impositions in
full at least thirty (30) days before delinquency thereof Landlord may, at
Landlord's election, but without any obligation so to do, advance any amounts
required to make up the deficiency, which advances, if any, shall be treated as
Additional Rent.  Upon expiration of the Lease Term, the sums held by Landlord
under this Section 3.2(a) shall be allocated between Landlord and Tenant as of
such expiration date based upon the periods with respect to which such sums are
due and payable, and Landlord shall be entitled to retain such portion as
represents amounts due

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 

and payable up through such expiration date, and the balance shall be returned
to Tenant. In the event this Lease is terminated due to an Event of Default, all
sums held by Landlord under this Section 3.2(a) shall be retained by Landlord.

     (b) Subject to the following conditions, Tenant shall have the right, at
Tenant's sole cost and expense, to contest or object in good faith to any
Imposition, but such right shall not be deemed or construed in any way as
relieving, modifying or extending Tenant's covenant to pay any such Imposition
at the time and in the manner provided in this Section 3.2:  (i) Landlord has
given Tenant prior written notice that Landlord does not intend to contest or
object to such Imposition; (ii) Tenant has given prior written notice to
Landlord of Tenant's intent so to contest or object to an Imposition; (iii)
Tenant shall demonstrate to Landlord's satisfaction that the legal proceedings
shall operate conclusively to prevent the sale of the Project, or any part
thereof; (iv) if Tenant has not deposited with Landlord all amounts required to
be deposited under Section 3.2(a) hereof, Tenant shall furnish a good and
sufficient bond or surety in the amount of such Impositions, or other evidence
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord of Tenant's ability to pay such Impositions,
which are being contested plus any interest and penalty which may be imposed
thereon and which could become a lien against the Project or any part thereof
and otherwise in an amount and form acceptable to Landlord; (v) no Default or
Event of Default has occurred; and (vi) Tenant covenants and agrees that any
increase in Impositions resulting from such contest or objection shall be paid
by Tenant upon demand.

     (c) Landlord shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain the benefit of the
provisions of any statute or ordinance permitting any real property assessment
for public betterments or improvements to be paid over the maximum period of
time allowed by the relevant taxing authority.

     3.3.  UTILITIES; OPERATING EXPENSES.

     (a) Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid when due, all charges, fees,
assessments and related costs for public utility services (including, without
limitation, gas, water, sewer, electricity, light, power, telephone, cable and
other communication services and refuse and garbage collection) used, rendered
or supplied in connection with the Premises throughout the Lease Term.

     (b) Tenant shall deposit with Landlord monthly (as a deposit and not as a
payment) an amount equal to Tenant's Share of one-twelfth of the annual
Operating Expenses estimated by Landlord and communicated by Landlord to Tenant
in writing so that Landlord will have sufficient funds to pay Operating Expenses
on the first day of the month preceding the month in which they become due.
Provided Tenant has deposited sufficient funds with Landlord pursuant to this
Section 3.3(b), Landlord shall pay, when due, such Operating Expenses as may be
due out of the funds so deposited with Landlord.  If at any time and for any
reason the funds deposited with Landlord are or will be insufficient to pay such
amounts as may then or subsequently be due, Landlord shall notify Tenant and
Tenant shall within seven (7) days after such notice deposit an amount

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 

equal to such deficiency with Landlord.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
contained herein shall cause Landlord to be obligated to pay any amounts in
excess of the amount of funds deposited with Landlord pursuant to this Section
3.3(b).  If amounts collected by Landlord under this Section 3.3(b) exceed
amounts necessary in order to pay Operating Expenses, Landlord shall retain such
excess payments and Tenant shall receive a credit for such excess amount toward
the next payments due for such Operating Expenses.  Should Tenant fail to
deposit with Landlord sums sufficient to pay such Operating Expenses in full at
least thirty (30) days before delinquency thereof Landlord may, at Landlord's
election, but without any obligation so to do, advance any amounts required to
make up the deficiency, which advances if any, shall be treated as Additional
Rent.  Upon expiration of the Lease Term, the sums held by Landlord under this
Section 3.3(b) shall be allocated between Landlord and Tenant as of such
expiration date based upon the periods with respect to which such sums are
incurred, and Landlord shall be entitled to retain such portion as represents
amounts incurred through such expiration date, and the balance shall be returned
to Tenant.  In the event this Lease is terminated due to an Event of Default,
all sums held by Landlord under this Section 3.3(b) shall be retained by
Landlord.

     (c) Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each Lease Year,
Landlord shall provide Tenant with a statement of the actual Operating Expenses
for the preceding Lease Year, and if Tenant has overpaid or underpaid its share
of the actual Operating Expenses for the preceding Lease Year, Tenant or
Landlord shall pay the other, as appropriate, the amount of such overpayment or
underpayment, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after the statement of
actual Operating Expenses is delivered.

     (d) After Landlord has provided Tenant with a statement of the actual
Operating Expenses for any Lease Year, Tenant, at its expense, shall have the
right for a period of ninety (90) days after receipt of such statement, to audit
Landlord's books and records relating to the actual Operating Expenses for the
period covered by such statement.  If Tenant fails to exercise its audits rights
within said ninety (90) day period, Landlord's statement of actual Operating
Expenses shall be deemed binding on Tenant. If any audit shall prove that Tenant
has overpaid in share of Operating Expenses, the amount of such overpayment
shall be applied as a credit against the next installment(s) of Additional Rent
due hereunder or refunded if Landlord is holding any such overpayment at the
expiration of the Lease Term.  While Tenant shall bear the costs of any audit
conducted for or by it, Landlord hereby agrees to reimburse Tenant for the
reasonable cost of such audit with respect to any Lease Year if said audit shall
prove that actual Operating Expenses for the period of time covered by such
audit had been overstated by five percent (5%) or more.  Tenant may not request
such an audit more than once for any particular Lease Year (or a portion
thereof).

including Base Rent and Additional Rent, shall be paid without any setoff,
counterclaim or deduction whatsoever or any prior demand.  The covenant to pay
Rent, whether Base Rent or Additional Rent, is hereby declared to be an
independent covenant on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and no act
or circumstance whatsoever shall release, relieve or otherwise excuse Tenant of
the obligation to pay Rent.

to the Premises, nor as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract
for or permit the rendering of services or the furnishing of materials that
would give rise to the filing of a lien against the Premises.

     4.3.  REMOVAL OF IMPROVEMENTS.  All alterations, additions and other
improvements by Tenant shall become the property of Landlord and shall not be
removed from the Premises, unless request is made by Landlord to Tenant to
remove those alterations, additions and other improvements which were made
without Landlord's approval where such approval was required under this Lease.
All moveable trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings and signs installed in the
Premises by Tenant and paid for by Tenant, shall remain the property of Tenant
and may be removed upon the expiration of the term of this Lease; provided that
any of such items as are affixed to the Premises and require severance may be
removed only if Tenant repairs any damage caused by such removal and that Tenant
shall otherwise comply with all of the terms, conditions and covenants to be
performed by Tenant under this Lease with respect to such removal.  If Tenant
fails to remove such items from the Premises by the expiration of the Lease Term
or earlier termination of this Lease, all such trade fixtures, furniture,
furnishings and signs shall become the property of Landlord, unless Landlord
elects to require their removal, in which case Tenant shall, at its sole cost
and expense, promptly remove the same and restore the Premises to its condition
on the date of this Lease.  The covenants contained in this Section shall
survive the expiration Lease Term or earlier termination hereof.

     4.4.  SIGNS.  Tenant covenants and agrees that it shall not, without the
prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, paint, erect or install any signs, lettering or placards or
make any additions, alterations or changes to the exterior of the Premises.
Upon expiration of the Lease Term or the earlier termination of the Lease,
Tenant shall at the request of Landlord remove such signs and shall promptly
restore the surfaces to which the signs were affixed to their former condition.
The obligation set forth in the preceding sentence shall survive the expiration
of the Lease Term or the earlier termination hereof.

                                   ARTICLE 5.
                            REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

     5.1.  TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS.  Tenant is solely responsible for causing the
Premises to be kept in a clean, safe, sanitary and first class condition and
state of repair in accordance with all Legal Requirements.  In this regard and
by way of example, Tenant shall keep the exterior of the Premises and the
foundations, roof, and structural portions of the walls and roofs of the
Improvements comprising the Premises in good condition and repair; Tenant shall
also keep the Premises and every part thereof and any fixtures, facilities or
equipment contained therein, in good condition and repair, including, but not
limited to, exterior doors, window frames and all portions of the store front
area(s), columns, nonstructural walls, and partitions, the heating, air-
conditioning, ventilating, electrical, lighting, plumbing and sewer systems, and
shall make

                                     -11-
<PAGE>
 

any replacements thereof and of all broken and cracked glass which may become
necessary during the Lease Term.  Tenant shall provide for all scheduled
servicing of the Premises and maintain necessary maintenance contracts to assure
proper maintenance of the Premises.  As used in this Section, the term "REPAIRS"
shall include replacements and other improvements as are necessary to maintain
the Premises as is required under this Lease.  If Landlord is required to make
repairs by reason of Tenant's acts or omissions or those of Tenant's employees,
agents, invitees, licensees or contractors, Landlord shall have the right, but
shall not be obligated, to make such repairs or replacements on behalf of and
for the account of Tenant.  In such event, such work shall be paid for in full
by Tenant as Additional Rent.

     5.2.  SURRENDER.  On the last day of the Lease Term, or on any sooner
termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises in the same
condition as the Premises existed on the date which Tenant first took possession
thereof, ordinary wear and tear and damage by an Insured Casualty excepted, with
such additions, replacements, betterments, alterations and improvements thereto
as permitted or required hereunder, broom clean, and shall surrender all keys,
to Landlord in the condition required to be maintained by Tenant under this
Lease.

     5.3.  RIGHT OF ENTRY.  Landlord and its authorized representatives shall
have the right to enter the Premises (a) upon prior notice to Tenant at all
reasonable times to inspect the Project or to show the Premises to prospective
purchasers or tenants, provided any such entry is done in a manner such as to
avoid interference with the operation of the Premises, and at the request of
Tenant occurs in the presence of a representative of Tenant and, (b) in the
event of the existence of an Event of Default hereunder, to make repairs,
alterations, improvements or additions as Landlord may reasonably deem
necessary, including those to be performed by Tenant, without the same
constituting an eviction of Tenant in whole or in part, and rent shall not abate
as a result of such entry.  Nothing herein shall imply any duty upon the part of
Landlord to do any work which the Tenant may be required to perform under this
Lease, and the performance thereof by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of
Tenant's default in failing to perform it.  If Tenant is not present to permit
entry into the Premises, Landlord may, in case of emergency, enter by master
key, or may forcibly enter, without rendering Landlord liable therefor.  During
the twelve (12) month period prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, Landlord
may place upon the Premises "For Rent" signs and notices.

                                   ARTICLE 6.
                              HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES

     6.1.  NO HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES.  Tenant shall not bring into or permit the
existence of any Hazardous Substance on the Premises other than as permitted by
applicable Environmental Regulations.  If Tenant discovers the presence of any
Hazardous Substance on or in the Premises which is in violation of any
Environmental Regulation, Tenant shall promptly give Landlord notice thereof.
If during Tenant's occupancy or at any time throughout the Lease Term the
existence of a Hazardous Substance is caused or permitted by Tenant, (a) Tenant
shall remove such Hazardous Substance and dispose of it as required by any and
all applicable Environmental Regulations, or (b) Landlord, if it is advised to
remove such Hazardous Substance itself to protect or minimize against any
liability to Landlord as a result of the presence of any Hazardous Substance by
no less than five (5) days' notice to Tenant, may elect to remove any Hazardous

                                     -12-
<PAGE>
 

Substance and dispose of it as required by any Environmental Regulation, in
which case Tenant shall pay the entire cost of such disposal within ten (10)
days after receipt of a statement for such cost by Landlord, such amount to be
treated as Additional Rent.  If any Governmental Authority shall require any
remedial action or other response with respect to the Premises as the result of
any Hazardous Substance brought into or permitted by Tenant on or in the
Premises, Tenant shall notify Landlord of such action or response and shall,
with the prior written approval of Landlord, be responsible for satisfying the
requirements of the applicable Governmental Authority.

     6.2.  TENANT INDEMNITY.  Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and
hold Landlord harmless from any and all claims, causes of action, damages,
penalties, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees, consultant fees and
related expenses) which may be asserted against or incurred by Landlord
resulting from the failure by Tenant to fulfill its obligations under Section
6.1 hereof.  Tenant's duty to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless
includes, but is not limited to, proceedings or actions commenced by any
Governmental Authority.

     6.3.  LANDLORD INDEMNITY.  Provided no Default shall have occurred,
Landlord agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold Tenant harmless from any
and all claims, causes of action, damages, penalties, costs and expenses
(including attorneys' fees, consultant fees and related expenses) which may be
asserted against or incurred by Tenant resulting from the failure by Landlord to
comply with any Environmental Regulation for which Landlord is otherwise
responsible under this Lease or as a matter of law.  Landlord's duty to
indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless includes, but is not limited to,
proceedings or actions commenced by any Governmental Authority.

     6.4.  SURVIVAL.  The foregoing covenants and indemnifications shall be
deemed continuing covenants and indemnifications for the benefit of Landlord,
Tenant and their respective successors and assigns and shall survive the
expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination of this Lease.

                                   ARTICLE 7.
                              COVENANTS OF TENANT

     7.1.  USE OF PREMISES.  Tenant covenants and agrees that from and after the
Commencement Date, use and occupy the Premises solely for the purpose of the
Permitted Use and for no other purpose.

     7.2.  CONTINUING COVENANTS.  Tenant covenants and agrees with Landlord to:

           (a)  [Intentionally Omitted]

                and state of repair;

            or otherwise required under the terms of this Lease;

       (d)  not commit or suffer waste with respect to the Premises;

       (e)  [Intentionally Omitted]

       (f)  not remove, demolish or in any respect alter any of the Improvements
            comprising the Premises, provided that Tenant may make alterations
            in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof;

       (g)  subject to any Legal Requirement, not make, install or permit to be
            made or installed, any alterations or additions to the Premises if
            doing so will violate the terms and conditions of this Lease unless
            approved by Landlord in writing;

       (h)  not make, suffer or permit any nuisance to exist on the Premises;

       (i)  keep the Premises neat and clean at all times and to keep any refuse

                                  ARTICLE 8.
                           INSURANCE AND INDEMNITIES

     8.1.  INSURANCE COVERAGES.

           (a) Landlord shall obtain beginning on the Commencement Date and
shall maintain throughout the Lease Term, as an Operating Expense, the following
insurance coverages:

                                     -14-
<PAGE>
 

               (i) A policy of public liability insurance on the Common Areas,
           providing such coverages and in such amounts as Landlord shall from
           time to time determine.

               (ii) A policy providing commercial property insurance on the
           Common Areas and such other portions of the Project as Landlord shall
           determine, providing such coverages and in such amounts as Landlord
           shall from time to time determine.

           (b)  Tenant shall obtain, at Tenant's expense, beginning on the
Commencement Date and shall maintain through the Lease Term, the following
insurance coverages:

               (i) A policy of commercial general liability insurance (including
           "Insurance Service Office" (ISO) forms and endorsements or their
           equivalent) naming Landlord, Tenant and any other party designated by
           Landlord as an additional insured, to insure against injury to
           property, person or loss of life arising out of the ownership, use,
           occupancy or maintenance of the Premises with limits of general
           liability not less than $10,000,000 for death and/or bodily injury,
           personal injury, advertising injury and property damage. The policy
           shall contain supplemental endorsements covering contractual
           liability as provided in an ISO liability policy under the definition
           of insured contract.

               (ii) A policy providing commercial property insurance containing
           the insuring agreement "Cause of Loss-Special Form" or its
           equivalent, together with such endorsements as may be deemed
           advisable by Landlord to insure the Improvements comprising the
           Premises, Tenant's leasehold improvements, merchandise, trade
           fixtures, furnishings, equipment and personal property, and naming
           Landlord as loss payee. Such policy shall provide coverage in an
           amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Improvements
           comprising the Premises. An "Agreed Amount Clause" waiving the
           coinsurance clause must be included, as well as flood and earthquake
           coverage, to the extent available, at limits equal to the maximum
           foreseeable loss at the location of the Premises. Coverage must also
           include an "Ordinances or Law Regulations" insuring agreement
           governing the construction, use or repair of property. Such coverage
           must include the expense of tearing down any property, including the
           cost of removing its debris. Increased cost of construction coverage
           must also be included.

               (iii) A policy of workers' compensation insurance must be
           provided that insures the benefits required by the State law and
           includes coverage B Employer's Liability. The Employer's liability
           limits must be:

               Bodily Injury By Accident -- $1,000,000 Each Accident
               Bodily Injury By Disease -- $1,000,000 Policy Limit
               Bodily Injury By Disease -- $1,000,000 Each Employee

                                     -15-
<PAGE>
 

           Landlord does not, by requiring such insurance or by any other act or
           event, assume or undertake liability for any work-related injuries or
           death to Tenant or Tenant's employees.

               (iv) If Tenant commits or permits any activity or the placing or
           operation of any equipment on or about the Premises creating unusual
           hazards, Tenant shall promptly upon notice or demand from Landlord,
           procure and maintain in force, during such activity or operation,
           insurance sufficient to cover the risks created thereby. Landlord's
           demand for unusual hazard insurance shall not constitute a waiver of
           any right Landlord may have to demand the removal or cessation of
           such activity or operation.

               (v) A policy of business interruption insurance with an "Extra
           Expense" insuring agreement naming Landlord and any other party
           designated by Landlord as an additional insured providing coverage of
           not less than twelve (12) months of Rent and other business income.
           Such policy must include an endorsement providing an extended period
           of indemnity for 180 days.

               (vi) All other insurance, if any, customarily maintained by
           businesses of like type, or required by any Legal Requirement to be
           carried or maintained by Tenant, or as otherwise may be required by
           Landlord, including but not limited to boiler and machinery coverage,
           automobile and garagekeepers liability coverage, and service
           interruption coverage.

     8.2.  INSURANCE POLICIES.  Insurance required under Section 8.1 shall be
written by companies duly qualified to do business in the State and shall be
satisfactory in all respects to Landlord and the holder of any mortgage against
the Project.  The companies providing such insurance shall deliver to Tenant and
Landlord copies of such policies or certificates evidencing the existence and
amount of such insurance with loss payable clauses satisfactory to Landlord,
including, specifically, the holder of the first mortgage on the Project as a
loss payee.  No such policy shall be cancelable or subject to reduction of
coverage or modification except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to
Landlord and such other persons designated by Landlord.  At least ten (10) days
prior to the expiration of such policies, Landlord may order such insurance and
charge the cost to Tenant as Additional Rent.  Tenant shall not do or permit
anything to be done which will invalidate the insurance policies furnished
pursuant to Section 8.1 or otherwise by Landlord and shall comply with all
requirements imposed by such insurers, unless such compliance is expressly
waived in writing by Landlord.  Landlord may from time to time reasonably
require that the policy limits of any or all such insurance be increased to
reflect the effects of inflation and changes in normal commercial insurance
practices.

     8.3.  EXEMPTION OF LANDLORD FROM LIABILITY.  Tenant hereby agrees that
Landlord shall not be liable and Tenant hereby waives all claims against
Landlord for injury to Tenant's business or any loss of income or other
consequential damages or for damage to the inventory, fixtures, furnishings,
improvements or other property of Tenant, Tenant's employees, invitees,
customers, sublessees, agents, occupants, contractors, or injury to the person
of Tenant, Tenant's employees, agents, contractors, occupants, invitees,
customers, sublessees, or any other person in

                                     -16-
<PAGE>
 

or about the Premises, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results
from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage,
leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances,
plumbing, air-conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause
whatsoever, whether said damage or injury results from conditions arising upon
the Premises, or from other sources or places, and regardless of whether the
cause of such damage or injury or the means of repairing the same is
inaccessible to Tenant.  Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any damages
arising from any act or neglect of any other tenant of the Project.

     8.4.  INDEMNIFICATION.

           (a) Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless
     Landlord from and against any and all claims arising from Tenant's use of
     the Premises, or from the conduct of Tenant's business or from any
     activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Tenant in or about
     the Premises or elsewhere, and shall further indemnify, defend, protect and
     hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims arising from any
     breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant's part to
     be performed under the terms of this Lease, or arising from any negligence
     of the Tenant, or any of Tenant's sublessees, agents, customers, invitees,
     contractors, occupants, or employees, and from and against all costs,
     attorneys' fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any
     such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon; and in case any
     action or proceeding be brought against Landlord by reason of any such
     claim, Tenant, upon notice from Landlord, shall defend the same at Tenant's
     expense by counsel satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant, as a material part of
     the consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to
     property or injury to persons, in, upon or about the Premises arising from
     any cause, and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against
     Landlord. The provisions of this Section shall survive expiration of the
     Lease Term or the earlier termination thereof.

           (b) Provided no Event of Default has occurred, Landlord shall
     indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Tenant from and against any
     and all claims arising from any breach or default in the performance of any
     obligation on Landlord's part to be performed under the terms of this
     Lease, or arising from any negligence of the Landlord, or any of Landlord's
     tenants (other than Tenant), agents, customers, invitees, contractors,
     occupants, or employees, and from and against all costs, attorneys' fees,
     expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any
     action or proceeding brought thereon. The provisions of this Section shall
     survive expiration of the Lease Term or the earlier termination thereof.

     8.5. MUTUAL WAIVER OF SUBROGATION.  Nothing in this Lease shall be
construed so as to authorize or permit any insurer of Landlord or Tenant to be
subrogated to any right of Landlord or Tenant against the other party arising
under this Lease.  Landlord and Tenant each hereby release the other to the
extent of any loss required to be insured against by either of the parties under
the terms of this Lease, whether or not such insurance has actually been
secured, and to the extent of their respective insurance coverage actually
received for any loss or damage caused by any such casualty, even if such
incidents shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of either party or
persons for whose acts or negligence the other party is responsible.

                                     -17-
<PAGE>
 

Landlord and Tenant shall, to the extent permitted by their respective insurers,
each obtain appropriate waivers of subrogation from their respective insurance
carriers giving effect to this Section.

     8.6.  INSURANCE PREMIUM DEPOSIT.  In the event the premiums with respect to
the insurance coverages set forth in Section 8.1(b) hereof are not paid annually
in advance, or in the case of a Default or an Event of Default hereunder,
Tenant, upon Landlord's request, shall deposit in advance with Landlord (as a
deposit and not a payment) an amount equal to one-twelfth of the aggregate
annual insurance premiums (as estimated by Landlord and communicated by Landlord
to Tenant in writing) on all policies of insurance required by Section 8.1(b)
hereof on the first day of each month.  Upon Landlord's request, Tenant shall
cause all bills, statements or other documents relating to the foregoing
insurance premiums to be sent or mailed directly to Landlord.  Upon receipt of
such bills, statements or other documents, and provided Tenant has deposited
sufficient funds with Landlord pursuant to this Section, Landlord shall pay,
when due, such insurance premiums as may be due thereunder out of the funds so
deposited with Landlord.  If at any time and for any reason the funds deposited
with Landlord are or will be insufficient to pay such amounts as may then or
subsequently be  due, Landlord shall notify Tenant and Tenant shall within seven
(7) days following such notice deposit an amount equal to such deficiency with
Landlord.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall cause
Landlord to be obligated to pay any amounts in excess of the amount of funds
deposited with Landlord pursuant to this Section.  Landlord may impound or
reserve for future payment of insurance premiums such portion of such payments
as Landlord in its absolute discretion may deem proper.  Should Tenant fail to
deposit with Landlord sums sufficient to pay in full such insurance premiums at
least thirty (30) days before delinquency thereof, Landlord may, at Landlord's
election, but without any obligation so to do, advance any amounts required to
make up the deficiency, which advances, if any, shall be treated as Additional
Rent.  Upon expiration of the Lease Term, and provided there exists at such time
no Event of Default or Default, all sums held by Landlord under this Section 8.6
shall be remitted to Tenant.

                                  ARTICLE 9.
                             DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

     In the event (a) the Improvements are damaged by fire, explosion or other
casualty insured under the fire and extended coverage insurance policy required
hereunder (an "INSURED CASUALTY") to the extent of thirty percent (30%) or more
of the insurable value thereof immediately preceding the casualty, (b) the
Improvements are damaged by a casualty or occurrence other than an Insured
Casualty, (c) such damage occurs at anytime within the last twelve (12) months
of the Lease Term, or (d) the Premises or any portion thereof is damaged by
fire, explosion or other casualty and the Premises cannot be repaired, rebuilt
or restored to substantially the same condition, under any Legal Requirement or
other governmental order or under any other agreement to which the Premises is
subject (a "PROHIBITED CASUALTY"), then in such event Landlord may terminate
this Lease by giving Tenant written notice of termination within thirty (30)
days after the happening of the event causing the damage.  In the event the
damage is not extensive enough to give rise to Landlord's option to terminate
this Lease, a Prohibited Casualty has not occurred, or Landlord does not elect
to terminate this Lease,

                                     -18-
<PAGE>
 

Landlord shall promptly repair and replace the Improvements comprising the
Premises existing immediately preceding such fire, explosion or other casualty.
Upon completion of such repairs and replacements by Landlord, Tenant shall
promptly repair or replace all portions of the Premises not repaired or replaced
by Landlord to the condition existing immediately preceding such fire, explosion
or other casualty.  All work by Tenant shall comply with the requirements and
limitations imposed by Landlord.  During any period of reconstruction or repair
of the Premises, Tenant shall operate its business in the Premises to the extent
practicable.  Base Rent shall be abated during the period of such repair and
restoration to the extent the Premises is not tenantable.

                                  ARTICLE 10.
                                 CONDEMNATION

     10.1.  TAKING OF WHOLE.  In the event (a) the whole of the Premises shall
be taken or condemned for a public or quasi-public use or purpose by a competent
authority or sold by Landlord in lieu thereof, (b) such a portion of the
Premises shall be taken, condemned or sold in lieu thereof so that the balance
cannot be used for the same purpose and with substantially the same utility to
Tenant as immediately prior to such taking, or (c) the Premises or any portion
thereof shall be taken or condemned for a public or quasi-public use or purpose
by a competent authority or sold by Landlord in lieu thereof and Landlord is
unable to repair, rebuild or restore the same under the terms of any agreement
to which it is a party, or under any Legal Requirement or other governmental
order to which Landlord or the Premises is subject (a "PROHIBITED TAKING"), this
Lease shall terminate upon delivery of possession to the condemning authority or
its assignee, and any award, compensation or damage (the "AWARD") shall be paid
to and be the sole property of Landlord whether the Award shall be made as
compensation for diminution of the value of the leasehold estate or the fee of
the Land or otherwise, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all of Tenant's
right, title and interest in and to any and all of the Award.  Tenant shall have
no claim against Landlord by reason of such taking or termination and, subject
to the provisions of Section 10.3 hereof, shall not have any claim or right to
any portion of the Award to be paid to Landlord. Tenant shall continue to pay
Rent and other charges hereunder until the Lease is terminated.

     10.2.  PARTIAL TAKING.  In the event (a) only a part of the Premises is
taken or condemned but the Premises or the part remaining can still be used for
the same purpose and with substantially the same utility to Tenant as
immediately prior to such taking, or (b) a Prohibited Taking has not occurred,
this Lease shall not terminate and Landlord shall repair and restore the
remaining Improvements comprising the Premises provided the cost and expense of
such repair and restoration does not exceed the amount of the Award.  If the
cost of such repair and restoration exceeds the amount of the Award, Landlord
may terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice of termination to
Tenant within thirty (30) days of the delivery of possession to the condemning
authority.  If Landlord is obligated to repair and restore the remaining
Improvements comprising the Premises, as herein provided, there shall be no
abatement or reduction in any Rent or other charges payable by Tenant under this
Lease because of such taking or condemnation.

     10.3.  TENANT'S AWARD.  Subject to the rights of Landlord's lenders,
termination of this

                                     -19-
<PAGE>
 

Lease because of condemnation shall be without prejudice to the rights of either
Landlord or Tenant to recover from the condemning authority compensation and
damages for the injury and loss sustained by them as a result of the taking, and
Tenant shall have the right to make a claim against the condemning authority for
the unamortized value of Tenant's leasehold improvements; interruption or
dislocation of business in the Premises; loss of good will and for moving and
remodeling expenses.  Tenant shall not have the right to make a claim for
diminution in value of Tenant's leasehold estate.  If this Lease is terminated
as a result of a condemnation, Tenant shall, subject to the rights of Landlord's
lenders, make a separate claim to the condemning authority for the above-
mentioned items.  If the condemning authority refuses to allocate the award
between Landlord's and Tenant's claims for damages and instead grants a single,
lump sum award to Landlord, Landlord and Tenant shall use reasonable, good-faith
efforts to determine that portion of the award which is attributable to Tenant's
leasehold improvements (but only the extent such leasehold improvements were
paid for by Tenant).

                              DEFAULTS; REMEDIES

     11.1.  DEFAULTS.  The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease by Tenant and each such
event shall be referred to herein as an "EVENT OF DEFAULT":

           (a) The failure of Tenant to make any payment of Rent or any other
     payment required to be made by Tenant under this Lease, within ten (10)
     days after the date due.

           (b) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the terms,
     covenants or conditions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant
     (other than those described in Sections 11.1(a), (c) or (d) hereof) where
     such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written
     notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant (or without notice in case of
     emergency or a hazardous condition or in case any fine, penalty, interest
     or cost may otherwise be imposed or incurred); provided, however, that if
     the nature of such failure is such that more than thirty (30) days are
     reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in
     default if Tenant commences such cure within said thirty (30) day period
     and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion, but in no
     event shall the period to cure such failure exceed ninety (90) days.

           (c)  (i) The making by Tenant or any entity holding a controlling
     interest in Tenant of any general assignment, or general arrangement for
     the benefit of creditors; (ii) the filing by or against Tenant or any
     entity holding a controlling interest in Tenant of a petition to have
     Tenant or such controlling entity adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for
     reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless,
     in the case of a petition filed against Tenant or such controlling entity,
     the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (iii) the appointment of a
     trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's
     assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where
     possession is not restored to Tenant within sixty (60) days; or (iv) the
     attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of
     Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this
     Lease or in the Premises, where such

                                     -20-
<PAGE>
 

     seizure is not discharged within sixty (60) days.

           (d) An assignment shall occur in violation of Article 12 hereof.

           (e) A default shall occur under that certain Guaranty of even date
     herewith made by LaserMaster Technologies, Inc., a Minnesota corporation,
     in favor of Landlord.

     11.2.  LANDLORD'S REMEDIES.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Landlord shall have the following remedies, in addition to all other rights and
remedies provided by law or equity, or elsewhere in this Lease, to which
Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative:

           (a) Landlord may, at Landlord's election, terminate this Lease upon
     the delivery of written notice of such termination to Tenant. On the
     delivery of such notice, all Tenant's rights in the Premises and the
     Project, in all improvements located at the Premises, to revenues from the
     Premises, and to amounts which may otherwise be due from Landlord to Tenant
     under this Lease, shall terminate. Promptly after notice of termination,
     Tenant shall surrender and vacate the Premises in a broom clean condition,
     and Landlord may reenter and take possession of the Premises and eject all
     parties in possession or eject some and not others or eject none.
     Termination under this Subsection shall not relieve Tenant from the payment
     of any sum then due to Landlord or from any claim for damages previously
     accrued or then accruing against Tenant. Upon such termination, Landlord
     shall also be entitled to recover from Tenant (i) unpaid Rent or such other
     amounts which have been earned or are payable at the time of termination,
     and (ii) as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, a sum of money equal
     to the Rent and such other amounts and rental costs to be paid by Tenant to
     Landlord for the remainder of the Lease Term, provided that, for purposes
     of this Section 11.2(a)(ii), the remainder of the Lease Term shall be
     deemed to be the earlier of the expiration of the Lease Term or five (5)
     years from the date of written demand by Landlord for such liquidated
     damages (the "ACCELERATED AMOUNT").

           (b) Landlord may, at Landlord's election, terminate Tenant's right to
     possession only, without terminating the Lease. Upon termination of
     Tenant's right to possession without termination of the Lease, Tenant shall
     surrender possession and vacate the Premises immediately and deliver
     possession of the Premises to Landlord, and Tenant hereby grants to
     Landlord the immediate right to enter into the Premises, remove Tenant's
     signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and hold possession of the
     Premises with or without process of law, and to dispossess the others who
     may be occupying or within the Premises, without being deemed in any manner
     guilty of trespass, eviction, or forcible entry or detainer, without
     incurring any liability for any damage resulting therefrom, without such
     entry and possession terminating the Lease or releasing Tenant from
     Tenant's obligation to pay Rent and to fulfill all other of Tenant's
     obligations under this Lease for the full Lease Term. Landlord shall be
     entitled to recover from Tenant (i) unpaid Rent or such other amounts which
     have been earned or are payable at the time of termination, and (ii) as
     liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the Accelerated Amount.

                                     -21-
<PAGE>
 

           (c) Landlord may, at Landlord's election, store Tenant's personal
     property, if any, for the account and at the cost of Tenant.

           (d) Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate the Lease, Landlord
     may, but shall be under no obligation to, relet all or any part of the
     Premises for such rent and upon such terms as shall be satisfactory to
     Landlord (including the right to relet the Premises as a part of a larger
     area, the right to change the character or use of the Premises and the
     right to restrict prospective tenants to those whose business is compatible
     with the nature and character of the Premises). For the purpose of such
     reletting, Landlord may decorate or may make any repairs, changes,
     alterations or additions in or to the Premises that may be necessary or
     convenient. If the Lease is not terminated and if the Premises is not
     relet, or if it is relet and a sufficient sum shall not be realized from
     such reletting after paying all of the expenses of any such decorations,
     repairs, changes, alterations and additions, the expenses of such reletting
     and the collection of the rent accruing therefrom (including, but not
     limited to, attorneys' fees and brokers' commissions), to satisfy the Rent
     and other charges herein provided to be paid for remainder of the term of
     this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord promptly any deficiency, and
     Tenant agrees that Landlord may file suit to recover and recover any sum
     falling due under the terms of this Subsection from time to time.

           (e) The term "RENTAL COSTS" as used in this Lease shall be deemed to
     include, but shall not be limited by implication, all repossession costs,
     brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees, alteration costs
     and expenses of preparation of the Premises or parts thereof for reletting.

           (f) For purposes of Sections 11.2(a) and (b) above, the present value
     (the "PRESENT VALUE") of the Accelerated Amount shall be computed by
     discounting the Accelerated Amount to the date of determination applying
     the rate on the United States Treasury obligation having a maturity equal
     to the earlier of the balance of the Lease Term or five (5) years from the
     date of written demand by Landlord for the Accelerated Amount and having an
     asking price closest to par, as quoted by the Federal Reserve Bank of New
     York as published in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 (519) on
     the date of determination (or the closest preceding date on which such rate
     is published), or any successor publication thereto. Landlord and Tenant
     agree that in the event of the exercise by Landlord of its remedy under
     Sections 11.2(a) or (b) hereof and the payment by Tenant of the Present
     Value of the Accelerated Amount, the cost to Landlord will be difficult to
     ascertain and that the Present Value of the Accelerated Amount constitutes
     a reasonable estimate of such cost and is not a penalty. Accordingly, if
     Tenant defaults, the parties agree that, except as may be otherwise
     expressly set forth herein to the contrary, the Present Value of the
     Accelerated Amount shall be the amount due from Tenant upon such default
     and Landlord shall not be obligated to mitigate its cost below such amount.
     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant
     acknowledges and agrees that if Tenant fails to pay to Landlord the Present
     Value of the Accelerated Amount within sixty (60) days after notice of
     termination, then Tenant shall forfeit any right to have the Accelerated
     Amount discounted to Present Value pursuant to the provisions of this
     Section 11.2(f).

                                     -22-
<PAGE>
 

           (g) No Accelerated Amount shall be due by Tenant by reason of an
     Event of Default based solely on the provisions of Section 11.1(a) hereof
     unless such Default has continued for at least thirty (30) days following
     delivery of written notice to Tenant.

           (h) In the event Landlord elects to terminate Tenant's right to
     possession only, without terminating the Lease and without pursuing
     recovery of the Accelerated Amount, Landlord shall use "commercially
     reasonable efforts" to relet the Premises as the agent of Tenant and
     receive the rent therefor; and in the event of such reletting, Tenant shall
     pay Landlord the cost of reletting including brokerage and reasonable
     attorneys' fees and commissions, renovating, repairing and altering the
     Premises for a new tenant or tenants and any deficiency that may arise by
     reason of such reletting, on demand; provided, however, the failure of
     Landlord to relet the Premises shall not release or affect Tenant's
     liability for Rent or for damages and such Rent and damages shall be paid
     by Tenant on the dates specified herein. For purposes hereof, "commercially
     reasonable efforts" shall mean that Landlord has listed the Premises as
     available for leasing with a recognized brokerage firm and if Landlord has
     so listed the Premises, Landlord shall not be required to take any other
     action with respect to reletting the Premises nor shall Landlord be liable
     in any manner for failure to relet the Premises. The Rent payable by Tenant
     hereunder shall be reduced by the rent received by Landlord from such
     reletting.

     11.3.  LANDLORD MAY PERFORM.  Landlord shall have the right at any time,
after three (3) days notice to Tenant (or without notice with respect to matters
described in Article 8, and in case of emergency or a hazardous condition or in
case any fine, penalty, interest or cost may otherwise be imposed or incurred),
to make any payment or perform any act required of Tenant under any provision in
this Lease, and in exercising such right, to incur necessary and incidental
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees. Nothing herein shall
obligate Landlord to make any payment or perform any act required of Tenant, and
this exercise of the right to so do shall not constitute a release of any
obligation or a waiver of any default. All payments made and all costs and
expenses incurred in connection with any exercise of such right shall be
reimbursed to Landlord by Tenant as Additional Rent.

                           ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

     12.1.  ASSIGNMENT BY TENANT. Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation
of law assign, transfer, mortgage, lease, sublet, grant, license or otherwise
transfer or encumber all or any part of Tenant's interest in this Lease or in
the Premises, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises or any part thereof
by anyone other than Tenant, without Landlord's prior written consent, which
consent may be withheld or conditioned in Landlord's sole and absolute
discretion. Landlord agrees to not unreasonably withhold its consent in the
event Tenant requests to sublet under (a) or (b) below, provided that any
proceeds payable to Tenant by reason of such subletting in excess of Rent due
hereunder are paid to Landlord when due and provided that such entity agrees to
otherwise fulfill the obligations of Tenant hereunder with respect to that
portion of the Premises which are the subject of such subletting: (a) the entire
Premises to an entity which on the effective date of such subletting satisfies
the Financial Test (for purposes of applying the Financial Test such entity
shall be treated as the proposed subtenant), and (b) any portion of the Premises
which is architecturally divisible from the balance of the Premises, provided
that the aggregate portion of the Premises permitted to be sublet under this
subsection 12.1(b) does not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the square footage of
the Premises at any time. Any attempted assignment, transfer, mortgage, use,
lease, occupancy, encumbrance or subletting without such consent shall be void
and shall constitute an Event of Default. In the event that Landlord furnishes
such consent, Tenant shall pay all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with
such consent, including attorney's fees.

     12.2.  [Intentionally Omitted]

     12.3.  ASSIGNMENT DUE TO BANKRUPTCY.

            (a) In the event a petition is filed by or against Tenant under the
     Bankruptcy Code, Tenant, as debtor and debtor in possession, and any
     trustee who may be appointed, agree to adequately protect Landlord as
     follows:

                (i)   to pay monthly in advance on the first day of each month
                      as reasonable compensation for use and occupancy of the
                      Premises an amount equal to all Rent due pursuant to this
                      Lease; and

                (ii)  to perform each and every obligation of Tenant under this
                      Lease until such time as this Lease is either rejected or
                      assumed by order of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

                (iii) to determine within sixty (60) days after the filing of
                      such petition whether to assume or reject this Lease; and

                (iv)  to give Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior written
                      notice, unless a shorter notice period is agreed to in
                      writing by the parties, of any proceeding relating to any
                      assumption of this Lease; and
  
                                     -24-
<PAGE>
 
                (v)   to do all other things of benefit to Landlord otherwise
                      required under the Bankruptcy Code.

     Tenant shall be deemed to have rejected this Lease in the event of the
     failure to comply with any of the above.

            (b) If Tenant or a trustee elects to assume this Lease subsequent to
     the filing of a petition under the Bankruptcy Code, Tenant, as debtor and
     as debtor in possession, and any trustee who may be appointed agree as
     follows:

                (i)   to cure each and every existing breach by Tenant within
                      not more than thirty (30) days of assumption of this
                      Lease; and

                (ii)  to compensate Landlord for any actual pecuniary loss
                      resulting from any existing breach, including without
                      limitation, Landlord's reasonable costs, expenses and
                      attorney's fees incurred as a result of the breach, as
                      determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, within
                      thirty (30) days of assumption of this Lease; and

                (iii) in the event of an existing breach, to provide adequate
                      assurance of Tenant's future performance, including
                      without limitation:

                      (1)  the deposit of an additional sum equal to Rent for
                           the remainder of the Lease Term to be held (without
                           any allowance for interest thereon) to secure
                           Tenant's obligations under the Lease; and

                      (2)  the production to Landlord of written documentation
                           establishing that Tenant has sufficient present and
                           anticipated financial ability to perform each and
                           every obligation of Tenant under this Lease; and

                      (3)  assurances, in form acceptable to Landlord, as may be
                           required under any applicable provision of the
                           Bankruptcy Code; and

                (iv)  the assumption will not breach any provision of this
                      Lease; and

                (v)   the assumption will be subject to all of the provisions of
                      this Lease unless the prior written consent of Landlord is
                      obtained; and

                                     -25-
<PAGE>
 
                (vi)  the prior written consent to the assumption of any
                      mortgagee to which this Lease has been assigned as
                      collateral security is obtained.
 
            (c) If Tenant assumes this Lease and proposes to assign the same
     pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code to any person or entity
     who shall have made a bona fide offer to accept any assignment of this
     Lease on terms acceptable to Tenant, then notice of such proposed
     assignment shall be furnished by Tenant to Landlord, setting forth:

                (i)   the name and address of such person; and

                (ii)  all the terms and conditions of such offer; and

                (iii) the adequate assurance to be provided Landlord to assure
                      such person's future performance under the Lease,
                      including without limitation, the assurances referred to
                      in any applicable provision of the Bankruptcy Code, shall
                      be given to Landlord by Tenant no later than twenty (20)
                      days after receipt by Tenant, but in any event no later
                      than ten (10) days prior to the date that Tenant shall
                      make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for
                      authority and approval to enter into such assignment and
                      assumption, and Landlord shall thereupon have the prior
                      right and option, to be exercised by notice to Tenant
                      given at any time prior to the effective date of such
                      proposed assignment, to accept (or to cause its designee
                      to accept) an assignment of this Lease upon the same terms
                      and conditions and for the same consideration, if any, as
                      the bona fide offer made by such person, less any
                      brokerage commissions which may be payable out of the
                      consideration to be paid by such person for the assignment
                      of this Lease. The adequate assurance to be provided
                      Landlord to assure the assignee's future performance under
                      the Lease shall include without limitation:

                      (1)  the deposit of a sum equal to Rent for the remainder
                           of the Lease Term to be held (without any allowance
                           for interest thereon) as security for performance
                           hereunder; and

                      (2)  a written demonstration that the assignee meets all
                           reasonable financial and other criteria of Landlord
                           as did Tenant and its business at the time of
                           execution of this Lease, including the production of
                           the most recent audited financial statement of the
                           assignee prepared by a certified public accountant;
                           and

                      (3)  the assignee's use of the Premises will be a
                           Permitted Use;

                                     -26-
<PAGE>
 
                           and

                      (4)  assurances, in form acceptable to Landlord, as to all
                           matters identified in any applicable provision of the
                           Bankruptcy Code.

     12.4.   NO RELEASE OF TENANT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Lease, and regardless of Landlord's consent, no assignment,
encumbrance, subletting, transfer, lease or other permission for the use or
occupancy of all or any part of the Premises shall, unless otherwise agreed by
Landlord, release Tenant of Tenant's obligation to pay the Rent and other
charges and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant under
this Lease. The acceptance of Rent and other charges by Landlord from any other
person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof.
Consent to one assignment shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent
assignment.

     12.5.   TRANSFER OF LANDLORD'S RIGHTS.  Landlord shall have the right to
transfer and assign, in whole or in part, all and every feature of its rights
and obligations hereunder and in the Premises.  Such transfers or assignments,
howsoever made, are to be fully binding upon and recognized by Tenant.  Upon
such transfer or assignment and the assumption of Landlord's obligations by the
transferee, and subject to the provisions of Section 13.2 hereof, Landlord shall
be relieved of all obligations under the Lease accruing subsequent to the date

any such Memorandum of Lease (or of any modification thereof) of record.  Such
instrument shall be held in escrow by Chicago Title Insurance Company or another

     shall provide that in the event Landlord defaults under such mortgage or
     other security instrument, Tenant's possession of the Premises shall not be
     disturbed so long as Tenant is not in breach of or Default of this Lease.
     Landlord shall not be liable or responsible for any fees or expenses
     charged by such mortgagee or security holder in attempting to secure such
     non-disturbance agreement. Further, such mortgagee's or security holder's
     failure or refusal to execute a non-disturbance agreement shall not be
     deemed to be a breach or default of this Lease by Landlord.

terms of or determine rights under this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to
recover reasonable costs, attorneys' fees and expenses, including those incurred
