                          OFFICE SPACE LEASE AGREEMENT

            JAY F. ANTENEN, JR., JAY F. ANTENEN, SR., AND DONALD M. HOUPT, III
("Lessor"), and ABLE LABS, INC. a(n) ___________________ ("Lessee"), hereby
enter into the following Office Space Lease Agreement this ____ day of
__________, 2002.

            1. THE PREMISES. Lessor leases to Lessee, and Lessee leases from
Lessor, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, a portion of the building
(the "Building") located at 11590 Century Boulevard, Cincinnati, Ohio 45246, on
land (the "Land") which is part of the Century One Office Park (the "Office
Park"). The portion of the Building hereby leased to Lessee (the "Premises")
contains approximately 731 square feet of leasable space, is located on the
first floor of the Building, and is shown on the plan of such floor attached
hereto as Exhibit A.

            Lessor also grants to Lessee, together with and subject to the same
rights granted from time to time by Lessor to other tenants and occupants of the
Building, the right to use the lobbies, elevators, hallways, and other common
areas within the Building, and sidewalks, parking areas, driveways, landscaped
areas, and any other facilities or improvements located on the Land (the "Common
Areas").

            2. TERM.

               2.1 Definitions. As used in this Lease, the following terms shall
have the following meanings:

                   2.1.1 "Commencement Date" shall mean the date on which Lessor
gives Lessee written notice that the Premises are "Available for Occupancy",
currently projected to be August 1, 2002 (as hereinafter defined). Upon Lessor's
request, Lessee shall execute and deliver a written memorandum setting forth the
Commencement Date of this Lease.

                   2.1.2 The Premises shall be deemed "Available for Occupancy"
on the later to occur of (i) the date that Lessor notifies Lessee that the
"Tenant Improvements", as defined in Section 3, have been substantially
completed, and (ii) the earlier of the date that Hamilton County has given
permission to occupy the Premises or the date that Lessee takes occupancy of the
Premises.

                   2.1.3 "Lease Year" shall mean the 12 month period beginning
on the Commencement Date if it is the first day of a month, or the first day of
the first month after the

                                       1
<PAGE>

Commencement Date if it is other than the first day of a month, and on each
anniversary thereof throughout the term of this Lease and any renewals or
extensions.

               2.2 Term. This Lease shall be for a term (the "Term") of three
(3) Lease Years, plus the period beginning on the Commencement Date to the first
day of the first Lease Year, if any.

            3. CONSTRUCTION.

               3.1 Installation of Improvements. Lessor shall complete and
install within the Premises substantially in accordance with plans and
specifications identified in Exhibit B, and at the expense of the party
indicated in Exhibit B. The quantities, character, location and manner of
installation of improvements shall be subject to limitations imposed by
governmental authorities.

               3.2 Approval of Plans and Cost Estimate. As soon as possible
after the execution of this Lease, but no later than 7 days after the date
hereof, Lessee shall provide Lessor with a description of Lessee's requirements
in sufficient detail so as to enable Lessor to prepare complete plans and
specifications for the Tenant Improvements. Such plans and specifications (the
"Plans and Specifications") and a cost estimate (the "Cost Estimate") for the
Tenant Improvements shall then be prepared by Lessor and submitted to Lessee.
Within 7 days after Lessor provides Lessee with the Plans and Specifications and
the Cost Estimate, Lessee shall approve the Plans and Specifications and the
Cost Estimate.

               If Lessee fails to provide Lessor with a description of Lessee's
requirements within the time provided above, or if Lessee fails to approve the
Plans and Specifications and the Cost Estimate by the time set forth above, or
if Lessee requests any changes to the Plans and Specifications after approval
thereof, or if Lessee has requirements that cause unreasonable delays in
commencing or completing the Tenant Improvements, and as a result of any such
event, Lessor is delayed in commencing or completing the Tenant Improvements
beyond the date on which, but for such delay, Lessor would (in its reasonable
judgment) have commenced or completed them, and such completion occurs after the
date which would have been the Commencement Date, then the Commencement Date
shall be the date which would have been the Commencement Date had such delay not
occurred.

               3.3 Other Work by Lessee. All work not within the scope of the
construction trades employed on the Building,

                                       2
<PAGE>

such as installation of furniture, telephone equipment and wiring, and office
equipment, shall be furnished and installed by Lessee at its expense. Lessee
shall conduct such work in a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with or
delay the work of Lessor's contractors. Lessor shall give access and entry to
the Premises to Lessee and its contractors to perform such work, provided,
however, that if such entry is prior to the commencement of the Term of this
Lease, such entry shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this
Lease except the payment of rent.

               3.4 Punch List. Lessee's taking possession of the Premises shall
be conclusive evidence of (a) Lessee's acceptance of the Premises, (b) that the
Premises were in good order and satisfactory condition when Lessee took
possession, and (c) that the Tenant Improvements were satisfactorily completed,
except for such minor items as Lessor and Lessee shall describe on a "Punch
List" to be prepared and signed by both parties within five (5) days after
Lessee's taking possession of the Premises.

            4. RENT.

               4.1 Base Rent. During the term of this Lease, the base rent for
the Premises (the "Base Rent") shall be as follows:

                   Annual Base Rent        Total Annual       Total Monthly
  Period              Per Sq. Ft.            Base Rent          Base Rent
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

               If the Commencement Date occurs on a date other than the first
day of a month, the Base Rent for the period prior to the commencement of the
first Lease Year shall be prorated based upon the number of days from the
Commencement Date until the date on which the first Lease Year commences, and
shall be paid with the first monthly installment of Base Rent. Base Rent for any
fraction of a Lease Year shall be prorated accordingly.

               4.2 Manner of Payment of Base Rent. Lessee shall pay the Base
Rent for each Lease Year in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first
day of each month during

                                       3
<PAGE>

such Lease Year, without demand, deduction, counterclaim or setoff, at Lessor's
notice address or at such other address as Lessor may designate by notice to
Lessee.

               4.3 Late Charges. If any installment of Base Rent, "Additional
Rent" (as hereinafter defined) or any other amount required to be paid under
this Lease is not paid when due or within 5 days thereafter, Lessee shall
immediately pay Lessor a service fee in the amount of 15% of such installment or
amount. In addition, if any installment of Base Rent or Additional Rent or any
other amount required to be paid under this Lease is not paid when due or within
15 days thereafter, each such unpaid installment or amount shall bear interest
from the date it was due until paid at the rate of 2% per month or, if less, the
maximum rate of interest permitted by law.

            5. ADDITIONAL RENT.

               5.1 Additional Rent. Lessee shall pay as additional rent
("Additional Rent") for the Premises during each Lease Year, "Lessee's Share" of
"Taxes", "Operating Expenses" and "Electricity Expenses" in connection with the
"Property." The current estimate of those expenses for calendar year 2002 is
$5.95 per rentable square foot annually, or $362.45 monthly.

               5.2 Definitions. As used herein, the following terms have the
following meanings:

                   5.2.1 "Lessee's Share" means the Lessee's pro rata share of
Taxes, Operating Expenses and Electricity Expenses. Lessee's Share is equal to
the number of leasable square feet of space in the Premises divided by the total
number of leasable square feet of space in the Building (731 / 51,354 = 1.42%).

                   5.2.2 "Taxes" shall mean all real estate taxes and
assessments, or substitutes therefore, all charges in lieu of taxes, and all
other payments in lieu of taxes made by special agreement or otherwise incurred
during any calendar year on the Property, and any personal property taxes
imposed upon the Property or any part thereof. Expenses incurred by Lessor in
obtaining or attempting to obtain a reduction of any Taxes shall be included in
the amount of any such Taxes. Taxes that are being contested by Lessor shall
nevertheless be included for purposes of the computation of Additional Rent;
provided, however, that if Lessee shall have paid any amount of Additional Rent
and Lessor thereafter receives a refund of any portion of any Taxes on which
such payment was based, Lessor shall refund to Lessee the appropriate portion of
such refund. Lessor shall have

                                       4
<PAGE>

no obligation to contest the imposition of any Taxes and may settle, consent to,
waive or otherwise resolve any such contest in its sole discretion.

                   5.2.3 "Operating Expenses" shall mean and include all costs
of a non-capital nature incurred in any calendar year in operating and
maintaining, managing, servicing, and repairing the Property and the Common
Areas, including without limitation, all maintenance, electricity and other
utilities supplied to Common Areas, water supplied to the Building and Common
Areas and all costs incurred in connection with the wastewater treatment
facility serving the Building, management, repair, replacement, insurance costs,
licenses, permit and inspection fees, the costs of wages and other employee
remunerations and taxes, ground rents, materials and services for the operation,
management, security (if any) and maintenance of the Property and the Common
Areas.

                   5.2.4 "Electricity Expenses" shall mean all costs incurred in
any calendar year in providing electricity for leasable space in the Building,
except for costs of electrical consumption by tenants of other space in the
Building for which electrical consumption is measured by separate meters.

                   5.2.5 "Property" shall mean and include the Land, the
Building and the other improvements on the Land, including without limitation,
all fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus and appurtenances in, on or used
in connection with the operation thereof.

               5.3 Budget. For each calendar year during the Term, Lessor shall
prepare and submit to Lessee a budget showing estimated Taxes, Operating
Expenses and Electricity Expenses for such calendar year ("Budgeted Taxes,
Operating Expenses and Electricity Expenses"). Lessee shall pay as Additional
Rent in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each month
during such calendar year, without demand, deduction, counterclaim or setoff, at
Lessor's notice address, one-twelfth (1/12th) of Lessee's Share of the Budgeted
Taxes, Operating Expenses and Electricity Expenses for such calendar year.

               5.4 Statements. Following the end of each calendar year ending
during the Term, Lessor shall furnish to Lessee a statement (a "Statement")
showing a comparison of Lessee's Share of the actual Taxes, Operating Expenses
and Electricity Expenses incurred for the calendar year just ended with the
amount of Additional Rent paid by Lessee pursuant to Section 5.3 during such
year. If the amount so paid by Lessee for such calendar year is less than
Lessee's Share of the actual Taxes, Operating Expenses and Electricity Expenses
for such year,

                                       5
<PAGE>

the Statement shall notify Lessee of Lessee's Share of such deficiency (a
"Deficiency"), and Lessee shall pay the amount of such Deficiency within thirty
(30) days after such Statement is furnished. If the amount so paid by Lessee for
such calendar year is greater than Lessee's Share of the Taxes, Operating
Expenses and Electricity Expenses for such year, the Statement shall notify
Lessee of Lessee's Share of such excess (an "Excess"), and Lessee shall be
entitled to a credit against the payments of Additional Rent next becoming due
under Section 5.3 in an amount equal to Lessee's Share of such Excess, or if the
Term has ended, Lessee shall be entitled to a refund in the amount of any
unapplied portion of Lessee's Share of such Excess.

               5.5 Fines, Penalties, Costs, Interests. Every fine, penalty, cost
and interest which may be added for non-payment or late payment of any amounts
which Lessee is required to pay pursuant to this Lease, shall also constitute
Additional Rent. Lessee shall have all rights, powers, and remedies with respect
thereto as are provided herein or by law in the case of non-payment of Base
Rent.

               5.6 Fiscal Year. Lessor reserves the right to establish a Fiscal
Year for purposes of making the Budgets and Statements of annual Taxes,
Operating Expenses and Electricity Expenses. If such Fiscal Year is established,
the Taxes, Operating Expenses and Electricity Expenses and Additional Rent
payments described in this Section 5 shall be determined on a Fiscal
Year-to-Fiscal Year basis, with appropriate prorations being made for any Lease
Year beginning before or ending after a full Fiscal Year.

            6. SECURITY DEPOSIT.

               6.1 Security Deposit. Prior to or concurrently with Lessee's
execution of this Lease, Lessee has deposited with Lessor the sum of Nine
Hundred Seventy-One Dollars and Sixty-Two Cents ($971.62) as security for the
payment by Lessee of the Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges set forth
in this Lease, and for the performance by Lessee of all the terms, conditions
and covenants of this Lease. If at any time during the term of this Lease,
Lessee shall be in default in the performance of any provisions of this Lease,
Lessor may, at its option, use the security deposit, or so much thereof as is
necessary, in payment of any Base Rent, Additional Rent, or other charges,
reimbursement of any expense incurred by Lessor, or payment of any damages
incurred by Lessor because of Lessee's default. If any portion of the deposit is
so used or applied, Lessee shall, within 10 days after written demand from
Lessor, remit to Lessor a sufficient amount to restore the security deposit to
its original amount.

                                       6
<PAGE>

               6.2 Refund. If the security deposit has not been utilized as
provided in Section 6.1, such security deposit, or so much of it as has not been
so utilized, shall be refunded to Lessee, without interest, upon full
performance of all the terms of this Lease by Lessee. Lessor shall have the
right to retain the entire security deposit, or so much as Lessor deems
necessary, until 90 days after the end of the calendar year in which this Lease
terminates, in order to insure that Lessee will comply fully with its
obligations under Sections 4 and 5 and 8.

               6.3 Use and Transfer of Security Deposit. Lessor shall have the
right to commingle the security deposit with other funds of Lessor. Lessor shall
also have the right to deliver the security deposit to any successor in interest
to Lessor's interest in the Leased Premises, and upon such delivery, Lessor
shall be discharged from further liability with respect to such security
deposit. If claims of Lessor exceed the security deposit, Lessee shall remain
liable for the balance of such claims. Lessee may not assign its right to the
security deposit in whole or in part.

            7. OBLIGATIONS OF LESSOR. Lessor agrees during the Term of this
Lease to furnish the following so long as Lessee is not in default hereunder:

               7.1 Services. Lessor shall furnish cleaning services for the
Premises after hours on business days. Lessor shall also furnish unheated water
for drinking, lavatory and toilet purposes, drawn through fixtures installed by
Lessor or with Lessor's consent.

               If Lessee requires or uses water for any purposes in addition to
such ordinary purposes, Lessor may install a water meter at Lessee's expense and
thereby measure Lessee's water consumption for all purposes. Lessee shall pay
Lessor on demand the cost of all water consumption so metered, including without
limitation any and all sewer rents, taxes or levies assessed by any governmental
authority or utility in connection with metered consumption. Such meter and
installation equipment shall be maintained in good working order and repair at
Lessee's expense.

               7.2 Business Days. Building services shall be available and
provided on business days. Business days are Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to
6:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon on Saturdays. The following Holidays are
excepted: Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Year's Day, July Fourth, Memorial Day and
Labor Day (the latter two being celebrated on Mondays).

                                       7
<PAGE>

               7.3 Extraordinary Use. Lessee acknowledges that the services to
be supplied by Lessor and the load bearing capacity of the Building will be
sufficient only for ordinary general office purposes. Any additional capacity or
structural support needed for computers, heat-generating machines or other
equipment or uses beyond ordinary general office uses shall be subject to
Lessor's prior written approval and shall be installed and maintained at
Lessee's sole expense.

               7.4 Interruption of Services. Lessor reserves the right, without
being liable to Lessee and without abatement or diminution in Base Rent, to
suspend, delay or stop any of the services to be furnished and provided by
Lessor under this Section 7 whenever necessary due to any cause specified in
Section 16 or any other cause beyond Lessor's control, or for emergency,
inspection, cleaning, repairs, replacements, alterations, improvements or
renewals which in Lessor's judgment are desirable or necessary; and Lessor may
suspend any such services until completion of any such work or until the cause
of the suspension has been removed. Failure by Lessor to any extent to furnish
any defined services, or any cessation of services due to any causes described
in the preceding sentence, shall not render Lessor liable in any respect for
damages to either person or property, not be construed as an eviction of Lessee,
nor work an abatement of Base Rent, nor relieve Lessee from fulfillment of any
covenant or agreement of this Lease. Should any of the equipment or machinery
utilized in supplying the services breakdown, or for any cause cease to function
properly, Lessor shall use reasonable diligence to repair the same promptly, but
Lessee shall have no right to terminate or repudiate this Lease, and shall have
no claim for rebate or abatement of rent or damages, on account of any resulting
interruptions in service.

               7.5 Repairs. Lessor shall provide for maintenance of the exterior
and structure of the Building and Premises (including the heating, ventilation
and air conditioning system serving the Premises), and shall contract for the
repair and replacement of electric lighting in the Common Areas, and maintenance
of the Common Areas and the underlying land and improvements, all in a manner
compatible with good quality office space.

            8. OBLIGATIONS OF LESSEE. During the Term of this Lease, Lessee
agrees as follows:

               8.1 Use of Premises. Lessee shall continuously throughout the
Term occupy and use the Premises. Lessee shall use the Premises for general
office purposes and for no other purpose. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing,

                                       8
<PAGE>

Lessee shall not place, or permit to be place, any vending machines in the
Premises.

               8.2 Electric Current.

                   8.2.1 Unless and until Lessor elects otherwise, Lessor shall
supply electric current to the Premises and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for
Lessee's pro-rata share of Electricity Expenses and Additional Rent pursuant to
Section 5 of this Lease. Lessee acknowledges that Lessor intends that the
electrical service being supplied to the Premises be used only for ordinary
general office purposes. If, at any time during the Term of this Lease, Lessee's
use of electricity at the Premises exceeds that consumed for ordinary general
office purposes due to the equipment used by Lessee at the Premises, then Lessor
shall have the right to install a separate electric meter to measure Lessee's
use of electricity at the Premises. In the event Lessor installs a separate
meter to measure Lessee's use of electricity at the Premises, Lessee shall, on
demand, pay Lessor as Additional Rent, the cost of all electricity consumed at
the Premises as measured by such meter. Such meter and installation equipment
shall be installed and maintained in good working order and repair at Lessee's
expense. If Lessor elects to install an electric meter for the Premises pursuant
to this Section 8.2, then, for the time that Lessor bills Lessee directly for
the electricity consumption measured by such meter, Lessee shall not be
responsible for Lessee's Share of Electricity Expenses (as defined in Section
5.2.4).

                   8.2.2 Lessee shall not permit its use of electrical current
to exceed Lessee's proportionate share of the capacity of the feeders, risers or
other electrical installations serving Lessee's Floor. As used herein, Lessee's
proportionate share of such capacity shall be the number of leasable square feet
in the Premises divided by the total number of leasable square feet in Lessee's
Floor of the Building. Any risers or other installations required to meet
Lessee's excess electrical requirements, upon written request of Lessee, will be
installed by Lessor at Lessee's expense, provided that in Lessor's sole judgment
the same are necessary and will not (a) cause permanent damage or injury to the
Building or Premises, (b) cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition,
(c) entail excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or expenses, or (d)
interfere with or disturb other tenants or occupants of the Building. Lessee
shall not make any alterations or additions without the prior written consent of
Lessor in each instance.

                   8.2.3 If, at any time when Lessor is furnishing electric
current to the Premises, it becomes illegal for Lessor to do so, Lessor may,
upon not less than thirty (30)

                                       9
<PAGE>

days' prior written notice to Lessee (unless a shorter period is required by the
governmental authority having jurisdiction), discontinue the furnishing of such
electrical current. If Lessor gives any such notice of discontinuance, Lessee
shall make all the necessary arrangements with the public utility for the
supplying of such electrical current to the Premises.

               8.3 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Lessee shall comply
with all laws, regulations and orders of any governmental authority, with the
rules and regulations, as reasonably adopted and modified from time to time by
Lessor (the "Rules and Regulations"), and with the provisions of the Declaration
of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Reservation of Easements for
Wastewater Treatment Facility, as recorded in the Hamilton County, Ohio
recorder's office, and as amended from time to time. The Rules and Regulations
for the Building are attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit B. Lessee
shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises or the
Common Areas which will in any way obstruct or interfere with the rights of
other tenants or occupants of the Building or injure or annoy them or create a
nuisance by permitting the emission of fumes or noxious odors or by the
operation of excessively loud or vibration-prone equipment or otherwise. Lessee
shall not do or permit anything to be done which will increase the premiums for
fire insurance for the Building. At no time during the Term shall Lessee store
any inventory, equipment or any other materials outside of the Premises. Lessor
shall not be responsible to Lessee for the non-observance of the Rules and
Regulations by any other tenant or occupant of the Building or the Office Park,
but Lessor shall use reasonable efforts to enforce such Rules and Regulations in
a fair and non-discriminatory manner.

               8.4 Care of Premises. Lessee at its expense shall maintain the
Premises in good condition and repair, and shall commit no waste therein or
damage thereto.

               8.5 Alterations. Lessee shall make no alterations in or
installations of equipment or to the Premises, unless and until plans and
specifications therefore have been approved by Lessor in writing. Lessee may
remove its moveable trade fixtures prior to the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, provided that Lessee repairs any damage to the
Premises caused by such removal. Nothing in this Lease shall, however, be
construed to constitute the consent of Lessor to the creation of any lien, and
no person shall be entitled to any lien on the Building, the Common Areas, the
Office Park or the underlying land or related improvements. In the event,
despite this provision, a lien is placed thereon, Lessee shall cause such lien
to be removed or shall, immediately upon request of Lessor,

                                       10
<PAGE>

provide a corporate surety bond satisfactory to Lessor which shall save Lessor
harmless under such lien and from any interest, costs and attorneys' fees
incurred by Lessor in connection therewith. Lessee shall indemnify Lessor from
any and all costs and expenses incurred by Lessor as a result of such liens. All
approved installations, alterations, additions or other improvements made by
Lessee shall be made in good and workmanlike manner, between such hours and by
such contractors or mechanics as may be approved in writing by Lessor, and in
such a way that utilities will not be interrupted and other tenants and
occupants of the Building will not suffer unreasonable inconvenience or
interference. Both during and after the performance of any such work, Lessor
shall have free access to any and all mechanical installations in the Premises,
including, but not limited to, air conditioning, fans, ventilating systems,
machine rooms and electrical closets; and Lessee agrees not to construct or
permit the installation of partitions and/or other obstructions in the Premises,
which might interfere with Lessor's free access to the Premises or Building, or
impede the free flow of air to and from air vents and other portions of the
heating, air conditioning and ventilating systems in the Premises and Building.

               8.6 Assignment and Subletting. Lessee shall not assign, sublet,
mortgage, or pledge the Premises or this Lease, in whole or in part, by
operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Lessor, such
consent to have been secured no later than 60 days prior to the effective date
of any assignment or sublease. Any purported mortgage, pledge, assignment, or
sublease, entered into by Lessee with a third party for the Premises or the
Lease, or any portion thereof without Lessor's prior written consent shall be
void. If Lessee is a privately held corporation or a partnership, any transfer
of shares or partnership interests in Lessee shall constitute an assignment for
purposes of this section. Lessor reserves the right to refuse to give such
consent if in Lessor's discretion and opinion the use of the Premises or quality
of operation of or variety of tenants' businesses in the Building is or may be
in any way adversely affected, and such refusal shall be deemed to be
reasonable. In the event any assignment or subletting is approved, such
assignment or subletting shall not become effective until the assignee or
sublessee has delivered to Lessor an acknowledged instrument in recordable form
assuming all of the obligations, covenants, and responsibilities of Lessee
hereunder. Lessee shall, notwithstanding any approved assignment or sublease,
remain primarily liable to perform the obligations imposed on Lessee hereunder.
Lessee further agrees to reimburse Lessor for reasonable attorneys' fees
incurred in conjunction with the processing and documentation of any requested
transfer, assignment, subletting, change of ownership, hypothecation or mortgage
of this Lease or Lessee's interest in and to the

                                       11
<PAGE>

Premises or Lessor's consent thereto. In the event Lessor approves an assignment
or sublease of this Lease, Lessee shall pay to Lessor 100% of any "Excess
Subletting Rent" (as hereafter defined) which shall be paid at the same time as
payments of Base Rent hereunder. As used herein, "Excess Subletting Rent" shall
mean that amount of "Subletting Rent" (as hereafter defined) for any month
during the Term which is in excess of the amount of Base Rent owed by Lessee
under this Lease for the same month. "Subletting Rent" shall mean the gross
amount paid during the Lease Term to Lessee as a sublessor or assignor, by a
sublessee or assignee, pursuant to a sublease or assignment which has been
approved by Lessor, or in consideration of such subletting or assignment.

               8.7 Signs. Lessee shall not place or permit to be placed or
maintained any sign or other advertising matter in or on any portion of the
Building outside the Premises, including, but not limited to, any exterior
doors, walls, roof or windows of the Premises, the Building or the Common Areas.
Lessee shall not place or permit to be placed or maintained any decoration,
lettering or advertising matter on the interior of the glass of any window or
door of the Premises. Lessor shall provide a directory of tenants in the
Building and shall further provide suite identification at or near the entrance
to the Premises.

            9. RIGHTS RESERVED TO LESSOR. Lessor shall have the following
rights:

               9.1 Entrance. Lessor shall have the right to inspect the Premises
at all reasonable times, and to show them after Lessee gives notice to intended
vacation or within ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Lease Term,
and to enter the Premises at any reasonable time to make such repairs, additions
or alterations as it may deem necessary for the safety, improvement, or
preservation of the Building, all of which shall be done in such a manner as not
to interfere materially with Lessee's use of the Premises, except in the case of
an emergency. In addition to Lessor's unrestricted right to show the Premises as
set forth above, Lessor may also show the Premises to prospective tenants,
mortgagees, or purchasers of the Building after having given Lessee reasonable
prior notice of such showing, provided such showing is conducted in a manner
that does not materially interfere with Lessee's use of the Premises.

               9.2 Common Areas. All Common Areas, including without limitation
automobile parking areas, driveways, entrances, walkways and exits thereto, and
other facilities furnished by Lessor in or near the Office Park, including
parking areas, pedestrian sidewalks and ramps, landscaped areas,

                                       12
<PAGE>

stairways, and other areas and improvements, shall at all times be subject to
the control and management of Lessor, and Lessor shall have the right from time
to time to establish, modify and enforce reasonable rules and regulations with
respect to the Common Areas. Lessor may from time to time change the area,
level, location and arrangement of parking areas and other facilities; establish
parking areas for tenants, their officers, agents, invitees and employees; close
temporarily all or any portion of the parking areas or facilities for repairs
thereto; discourage non-customer parking; and do and perform such other acts in
and to the Common Areas as Lessor shall determine to be necessary or desirable
under the circumstances.

               9.3 Right to Cure. All costs, charges, adjustments and expenses
which Lessee is obligated to pay under this Lease (including but not limited to
amounts payable in order to release liens) shall be collectible in the same
manner as the Base Rent and, in the event of nonpayment, Lessor shall have the
same rights and remedies provided for in the case of nonpayment of Base Rent. If
Lessee fails to make any payment which it is required to make (other than the
payment of Base Rent or Additional Rent), including but not limited to payment
of any utility costs, whether or not separately metered, or shall default in
performing any of its obligations under this Lease, Lessor, at its option, at
any time after 10 days' notice to Lessee, may (but shall not be obligated to)
make such payment, or cause any such obligation of Lessee to be performed for
and on behalf of Lessee, expending such sums as may be necessary to perform or
satisfy any such obligation of Lessee. All sums so expended by Lessor, together
with interest at the lesser of a per annum rate of 2% over the prime rate then
in effect at Star Bank, or the maximum rate allowable by law, from the date of
such expenditure, shall be deemed additional rent, and shall be repaid by Lessee
to Lessor on demand; but no such payment, act, or expenditure by Lessor shall be
deemed a waiver of Lessee's default nor shall it affect any other remedy of
Lessor by reason of such default.

            10. RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES IN THE EVENT OF EMINENT DOMAIN OR
CASUALTY.

               10.1 Eminent Domain. In the event the Premises or any part
thereof shall be acquired by the exercise of eminent domain by any public or
quasi-public body in such a manner that the Premises shall become unusable by
the Lessee for office purposes, or the Building or Common Areas or a "material
portion" (as hereinafter defined) thereof shall be so acquired, then either
party may terminate this Lease as of the date that possession thereof is taken
by the condemning authority by giving written notice to the other. Lessee shall
have no claim against

                                       13
<PAGE>

Lessor or the condemning authority on account of such taking for the value of
the remaining unexpired term of this Lease, and all damages awarded or
compensation given as a result of such taking shall belong to and be the sole
property of Lessor, except Lessee shall be entitled to any specific award or
compensation allocated to the cost of removal of equipment or property of Lessee
or relocation by Lessee, provided that the claim for or payment of any such
award does not reduce the amount awarded or payable to Lessor. A portion of the
Building or Common Areas so acquired shall be deemed to be a "material portion"
thereof if Lessor determines in its sole discretion that the remainder thereof
is not suitable for use as an office building.

               10.2 Fire and Casualty.

                   10.2.1 Except as provided in Section 10.2.2, if the Building
or the Premises are partially damaged by fire or other casualty, Lessor shall
repair and restore the damaged portion of the Building and Premises to
substantially their condition prior to such fire or other casualty, except that
Lessor shall not be required to repair or restore the Tenant Improvements or any
other leasehold improvements installed in the Premises by Lessee, nor shall
Lessor be required to expend sums in excess of the insurance proceeds available
for such purposes.

                   10.2.2 If all or a substantial portion of the Premises, the
Building or the Common Areas is damaged, destroyed or rendered unfit for
occupancy as a result of fire or other casualty, Lessor may elect, by giving
written notice to Lessee within ninety days after the casualty date (i) to
terminate this Lease as of the casualty date; or (ii) to repair and restore the
Building or the Common Areas. If after such damage or destruction Lessor elects
to repair and restore the Building or the Common Areas, and the same shall not
have been repaired and restored to substantially their condition prior to the
casualty (except for repairs and restoration of the Tenant Improvements or any
other leasehold improvements installed in the Building by Lessee or other
tenants) within 180 days after the date of giving of Lessor's notice to Lessee
(subject to Section 16), either party shall have the right to terminate this
Lease, as of the casualty date, by giving written notice to the other within ten
(10) days after the expiration of such 180 day period, and the Base Rent and all
additional charges shall be prorated as of the date of the casualty.

                   10.2.3 The Base Rent, until such repairs as Lessor elects to
undertake are substantially completed, shall be abated in proportion to the part
of the Premises which is not tenantable by Lessee.

                                       14
<PAGE>

                   10.2.4 If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to Section
10.2.2, Lessee shall as promptly as practicable after the occurrence of any
damage or destruction make such repairs and replacements in the Premises as are
necessary to restore Lessee's leasehold improvements, including without
limitation Tenant Improvements, to their condition immediately prior to the
occurrence of such casualty.

            11. INSURANCE; DAMAGE TO LESSEE'S PROPERTY.

               11.1 Insurance. Lessor shall maintain fire and extended coverage
insurance on the Building, but shall not insure Lessee's property. All of
Lessee's personal property placed in or about the Building or the Premises shall
be at Lessee's sole risk, and Lessor and its agents and employees shall not be
liable to Lessee, or its agents or employees, for theft, loss or appropriation,
or for any damage or injury due to explosion, water, rain, snow, frost, steam,
gas, electricity, heat, cold, dampness, falling plaster, sewage, odors, noise,
leaks from any part of the Building or the roof, the bursting or leaking of
pipes, plumbing, electrical wiring and equipment and fixtures of all kinds, or
any act or neglect of other tenants or occupants of the Building or of any other
person or from any other cause whatsoever, nor shall Lessor be liable for any
latent defect in the Premises or in the Building. Lessee shall give immediate
notice to Lessor in case of fire or accident in the Premises or of any defects,
damage or injury in the Premises or in any fixtures or equipment.

               11.2 Waiver of Claims. Notwithstanding any other provisions of
this Lease, Lessor shall not be liable for loss or damage to the Tenant
Improvements or any fixtures, furnishings, leasehold improvements or personal
property located or found in or around the Premises caused by fire or other
perils usually covered by an "all-risk" of loss insurance policy, and Lessee
waives all rights of subrogation against Lessor with respect to such perils.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, Lessee shall not be liable
for loss or damage to the Premises, the Building, or the Common Areas caused by
fire or other perils usually covered by an "all-risk" of loss insurance policy,
and Lessor waives all rights of subrogation against Lessee with respect to such
perils.

               11.3 Lessee's Insurance. Lessee shall carry and maintain public
liability insurance on the Premises throughout the Term covering Lessee, and
naming Lessor as an additional insured and, if Lessor elects, also naming any
mortgagee as an additional insured, with terms and companies satisfactory to
Lessor and for limits of not less than $1,000,000.00 for personal injury or
death arising out of any one occurrence and not less

                                       15
<PAGE>

than $500,000.00 for damage to property arising out of any one occurrence.
Lessee shall also carry insurance against fire and such other risk as are from
time to time included in an "all-risk" of loss insurance policy, insuring the
full replacement cost of all leasehold improvements paid for by or in behalf of
Lessee, including the Tenant Improvements and all wall coverings, carpeting,
furnishings, equipment and other items of personal property located on or within
the Premises, regardless of whether any such items will constitute fixtures and
be surrendered to Lessor upon expiration of the Term. Lessee shall also carry
plate glass insurance on all interior and exterior glass in or on the Premises.
All such policies shall be cancelable only upon 30 days prior written notice to
Lessor. Prior to the commencement of the Term and within 15 days prior to the
expiration of each such policy, Lessee shall furnish Lessor with copies of such
policies or certificates evidencing that such insurance is in full force and
effect and stating the terms of the insurance.

            12. LESSEE'S INDEMNIFICATION OF LESSOR. Lessor shall not be liable
to Lessee or any other person for damage to property, or injury or death to
persons due to the condition of the Premises, the Building, or the Common Areas,
or due to any occurrence or happening in or about the Premises, the Building or
the Common Areas or due to any act or neglect of Lessee or any other tenant or
occupant of the Building or of any other person, unless such damage, injury or
death is the result of the gross negligence or willful act of Lessor or its
agents or employees. Lessee shall be responsible and liable to Lessor for any
damage to the Premises, the Building, or the Common Areas resulting from the
negligence of Lessee, its employees, licensees, invitees, or agents, except as
provided in Section 11.2. Lessee shall defend, indemnify and save harmless
Lessor against any and all claims arising from Lessee's use and occupancy of the
Premises or from any work or thing done by or on behalf of Lessee in or about
the Premises, including but not limited to the construction of the Tenant
Improvements, and Lessee will further defend, indemnify and save Lessor harmless
against any and all claims arising from any breach or default in the performance
of any of Lessee's obligations under this Lease or arising from any act or
negligence of Lessee, its agents, contractors, employees, invitees and
licensees, and from and against all costs, counsel fees, expenses and
liabilities incurred in connection with any such claim.

            13. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.

               13.1 Defaults by Lessee. Each of the following shall be deemed a
default by Lessee:

                                       16
<PAGE>

                   13.1.1 Failure to pay Base Rent, Additional Rent, or any
other amounts herein provided to be paid when due or within ten (10) days
thereafter;

                   13.1.2 Failure to perform any other act to be performed by
Lessee hereunder or to comply with any condition or covenant contained herein on
Lessee's part to be kept or performed and such failure continues for a period of
30 days after written notice from Lessor to Lessee; provided that such period
may be extended for the period of time reasonably necessary to cure such failure
so long as Lessee promptly commences such cure within such 30 day period and
thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion; and

                   13.1.3 The abandonment of the Premises by Lessee or Lessee's
adjudication as a bankrupt; the making by Lessee of a general assignment for the
benefit of any insolvency action or law; the appointment of a permanent receiver
or trustee or custodian in bankruptcy for Lessee or its assets; the appointment
of a temporary receiver for Lessee or its assets if such temporary receivership
has not been vacated or set aside within 30 days from the date of such
appointment; the initiation of an arrangement or similar proceedings for the
benefit of creditors by or against Lessee; termination of Lessee's existence,
whether by dissolution, agreement, death or otherwise.

               13.2 Remedies of Lessor. In the event of any default of Lessee as
provided in Section 13.1, Lessor shall have the immediate right to re-enter and
may remove all persons and property from the Premises. Lessor may dispose of
such property in any manner it deems expedient at the expense of Lessee. Whether
or not Lessor elects to re-enter, as herein provided, or take possession
pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, Lessor
may at its option terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Lessee
specifying a date on which this Lease shall terminate, and upon such date, this
Lease shall terminate.

               In case of any such default, termination, re-entry, expiration
and/or dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, (1) all Base Rent and
Additional Rent shall become due thereupon and be paid up to the time of such
re-entry, dispossession and/or expiration; and/or (2) Lessor may re-let the
Premises or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Lessor or
otherwise, for a term or terms which may, at Lessor's option, be less than or
exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term
of this Lease and may grant concessions or free rent; and/or (3) Lessee shall
also pay Lessor as liquidated damages for the failure of sublessee to observe
and perform Lessee's covenants herein contained, any

                                       17
<PAGE>

deficiency between the rent hereby reserved and/or covenanted to be paid and the
net amount, if any, of the rents collected on account of the lease or leases of
the Premises for each month of the period which would otherwise have constituted
the balance of the term of this Lease. The failure or refusal of Lessor to
re-let the Premises or any part or parts thereof shall not release or affect
Lessee's liability for damages. In computing such liquidated damages there shall
be added to such deficiency such expenses as Lessor may incur in connection with
re-letting, such as legal expenses, reasonable attorneys' fees, brokerage and
for keeping the Premises in good order or for preparing the same for re-letting,
including all alterations, repairs, replacements and redecorations as Lessor may
take in its sole discretion. Any suit brought to collect the amount of the
deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of Lessor to
collect the deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar proceeding. Lessor
shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for failure to relet the
Premises, or in the event the Premises are re-let, for failure to collect the
rent under such re-letting. Mention in this Lease of any particular remedy shall
not preclude Lessor from any other remedy, in law or in equity. Lessee hereby
expressly waives any and all rights or redemption granted by or under any
present or future laws in the event of Lessor obtaining possession of the
Premises, by reason of the violation by sublessee of any of the covenants and
conditions of this Lease, or otherwise.

               13.3 Attorneys' Fees. In the event Lessee defaults in the
performance of any of the terms, covenants, agreements or conditions contained
in this Lease and Lessor places the enforcement of this Lease, or the collection
of any rent due or to become due, or recovery of possession of the Premises, in
the hands of an attorney, or files suit upon the same, Lessee agrees to pay
Lessor all reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Lessor.

               13.4 Condition on Lessor's Liability. Lessee shall not be
entitled to claim a constructive eviction from the Premises unless Lessee shall
have first notified Lessor of the condition or conditions giving rise to such
claim, and, if the complaints are justified, Lessor shall have failed within a
reasonable time after receipt of such notice to remedy such conditions.

            14. BROKER. As part of the consideration for the granting of this
Lease, Lessee represents and warrants to Lessor that no broker negotiated or was
instrumental in negotiating or consummating this Lease, except for Cincinnati
Capital Properties, Inc.

            15. ENTRY BY LESSOR. Lessee shall provide Lessor with the names of
two persons Lessor may contract for entry into the Premises, for Building
emergencies, and for other matters arising in administering this Lease. If a
representative of Lessee is not present to permit Lessor to enter the Premises
at any time that entry is necessary or permissible, Lessor or its agents may
enter by a master key or may, if necessary, forcibly enter the same without any
liability, provided that, during such entry, reasonable care shall be used to
avoid damage or injury to Lessee's property.

            16. INABILITY TO PERFORM. This Lease and the obligation of Lessee to
pay any amount payable hereunder and perform all of its other obligations shall
not be affected, impaired or excused because Lessor is unable to fulfill any of
its obligations under this Lease, or to supply, or is delayed in supplying, any
service expressly or impliedly to be furnished, or is unable to make, or is
delayed in making, any improvements (including the construction of the Building
or the construction of the Tenant Improvements), repairs, additions, alterations
or decorations, or is unable to supply or is delayed in supplying any equipment
or fixtures, if Lessor is so prevented or delayed by reason of strike, lockout
or labor dispute, lack or failure of customary sources of supply of fuel, labor
and materials, or due to any other cause beyond the reasonable control of
Lessor, including without limitation national emergency, any law or governmental
rule, order or regulation, war, civil commotion, riot, interference by civil or
military authorities, fire or other casualty or act of God.

            17. RELOCATION OF PREMISES. At any time after the execution of this
Lease, Lessor may relocate the Premises to other premises in the Building (the
"New Premises") in which event the New Premises shall be deemed to be the
Premises for all purposes hereunder provided:

                      (a)  The New Premises are similar in area and
          appropriateness for Lessee's purpose;

                      (b) Such relocation is effected for the purpose of
          accommodating a tenant that will occupy a substantial portion of the
          square footage on the floor on which the Premises are located;

                      (c) If Lessee is occupying the Premises at the time of any
          such relocation, Lessor shall pay the expense of moving Lessee, its
          property and equipment to the New Premises, and shall, at its sole
          cost, improve the New Premises with improvements substantially similar
          to those located in the Premises; and

                                       19
<PAGE>

                      (d) If any such substitution occurs prior to Lessee's
          occupancy and build-out of the Premises, Lessor shall pay any
          reasonable additional architectural or design fees incurred by Lessee
          as a direct result of such relocation.

            18. LESSOR'S SUCCESSORS. The term "Lessor" as used in this Lease
shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners, at the time, of
the fee of the Building, their successors and assigns, or the sublessee under a
lease of the Building, so that in the event of any subsequent sale or sales of
the Building, or in the event of a lease or assignment of lease of the Building,
the previous Lessor shall be entirely released with respect to the performance
of all subsequently accruing covenants and obligations on the part of Lessor.
The retention of fee ownership by a lessor of the Building or of the land on
which it is located under an underlying lease which is now or hereafter in
effect, shall not be deemed to impose on such underlying lessor any liability,
initial or continuing, for the performance of the covenants and obligations of
Lessor.

            19. LIMITATION UPON LIABILITY. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary provided for herein, each and every term, covenant, condition, and
provision of this Lease is hereby made specifically subject to the provisions of
this Section 19. It is specifically understood and agreed that Lessee's sole
recourse in the event Lessor fails to observe or perform any term, covenant,
condition or provision of this Lease on Lessor's part to be performed, is
limited to Lessor's interest in the Premises, and Lessee shall have no right to
obtain a judgment against Lessor or any general or limited partner of Lessor or
any officer, director or employee of Lessor for any sum of money which is or may
be payable under this Lease, or for any deficiency after realization against the
Premises, or to enforce or attempt to enforce a claim for any such sum against
any of the other assets of Lessor or any general or limited partner or any
officer, director or employee of Lessor. Such exculpation of personal liability
is absolute and without any exception whatsoever.

            20. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

               20.1 Right to Quiet Enjoyment. If Lessee shall perform all
covenants and agreements herein provided to be performed by Lessee, Lessee
shall, at all times during the Lease Term, have the peaceable and quiet
enjoyment of possession of the Premises, free of hindrance and molestation by
Lessor, subject to the provisions of this Lease.

               20.2 Subordination. This Lease and all Lessee's rights under this
Lease are subject and subordinate to all

                                       20
<PAGE>

underlying leases, trust indentures and mortgages (collectively, "Mortgages")
now or hereafter placed on or affecting the Building and/or the land on which
the Building is located, or any interest therein, and all renewals,
modifications, consolidation, replacements, substitutions, additions and
extensions of any such Mortgages. This provision shall be self-operative and no
further instrument of subordination shall be necessary. However, in confirmation
of such subordination, Lessee shall execute and deliver promptly any
subordination agreement that Lessor may request. In the event any proceedings
are brought for the foreclosure of any Mortgage, or in the event of a deed in
lieu of such foreclosure, or in the event of the termination of any underlying
lease, Lessee hereby agrees to attorn to the purchaser or transferee upon
foreclosure, and/or the holder of the reversion under any such underlying lease,
and recognize such purchaser, transferee or holder as the Lessor under this
Lease to the same extent and effect as the original Lessor. Lessee agrees to
execute and deliver upon the request of Lessor, or any such purchaser,
transferee or holder, any instrument necessary or desirable to evidence such
attornment. Lessee waives any right which it may have by law to terminate this
Lease or to surrender possession of the Premises by reason of any such
foreclosure proceedings or termination of any underlying lease.

               20.3 Estoppel Certificates. Upon the request of Lessor, any
owner, transferee, or purchaser at foreclosure of the Building, any potential
purchaser of the Building pursuant to contract, or any holder or potential
holder of a Mortgage, Lessee will execute estoppel certificates addressed to
such person(s), certifying as to such facts (if true) and agreeing to such
notice provisions and other matters, as such person(s) may reasonably require
with respect to the status of this Lease.

               20.4 Rights of Assigns. Except where specifically limited, the
rights and liabilities of the parties hereto shall run to the benefit of and
shall be binding upon the personal representatives, heirs, devisees, assigns and
successors in interest of Lessor and Lessee.

               20.5 Surrender at End of Term. Lessee shall quit and surrender
the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. The
Premises shall be broom clean, in good condition and repair, except for ordinary
wear and tear and damage by fire and extended coverage hazards for which
insurance is maintained, with alterations, additions and improvements, except as
otherwise provided herein. Lessee's obligations under this Section shall survive
the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

                                       21
<PAGE>

               20.6 Holding Over. At the expiration or earlier termination of
the term of this Lease, any holdover shall be from month to month on the same
terms and conditions as herein provided, except as Lessor otherwise gives Lessee
at least 30 days' notice, and in the event of such holdover this Lease may be
terminated by either party by 30 days' prior written notice to the other.

               20.7 Waiver. No waiver of any covenant or condition, or the
breach of any covenant or condition of this Lease shall be taken to justify or
authorize a non-observance on any other occasion of such covenant or condition
or any other covenant or condition or to constitute a waiver of any subsequent
breach of such covenant or condition. Acceptance of Base Rent, Additional Rent
or any other sums by Lessor at any time when Lessee is in default of any
covenant or condition hereof shall not be construed as a waiver of any such
default or of Lessor's right to terminate this Lease on account of such default.

               20.8 Notice. Any notice, consent or waiver required or permitted
to be given or served by either party to this Lease shall be in writing and
either delivered personally to the other party of mailed by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

               20.9 Severability. If any provision of this Lease or the
application thereof to any person or circumstance is invalid, such invalidity
shall not affect other provisions or applications of this Lease which can be
given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the
provisions of this Lease are declared to be severable.

statutes, ordinance, orders or regulations issued by the State, City, County or
