from Landlord all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth the

commencing on the Lease Date and terminating on the Expiration Date, as the
Lease Commencement Date and the Expiration Date may be revised pursuant to
Section 17; provided that if the Lease Commencement Date is a day other than the
first day of a calendar month, the Term shall expire ten (10) years after the
first day of the first full calendar month after the Lease Commencement Date and
shall, accordingly, include the period between the Lease Commencement Date and
the end of the calendar month in which the Base Commencement Date occurs. The
term "Lease Year", as used in this Lease, shall mean the 12-month period
commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, and each 12-month period thereafter
during the Term; provided, however, that if the first Lease Year begins on a day
other than the first day of a calendar month, the first Lease Year shall include
the period between the Lease Commencement Date and the end of the calendar month
in which the Lease Commencement Date occurs and shall extend through the end of
the twelfth (12th) full calendar month following the Lease Commencement Date.

       3.1  Renewal Option.
            --------------
       (a) Provided that no Event of Default (as defined in Section 22) has
occurred and is then continuing, Tenant shall have the right and option to
extend the Primary Term of this Lease for two (2) successive additional periods
of five (5) years each (the "First Renewal Term" and the "Second Renewal Term",
respectively, and, collectively, the "Renewal Terms") in accordance with this
Section 3.1. If Tenant does not extend the Primary Term for the First Renewal
Term, it shall have no right to extend the Term for the Second Renewal Term. The
option for the First Renewal Term my be exercised by Tenant by written notice
given to Landlord not less than nine (9) months prior to the end of the Primary
Term. If Tenant properly exercises its right to the First Renewal Term, the
option for the Second Renewal Term may be exercised by Tenant by written notice
given to Landlord not less than nine (9) months prior to the end of the First
Renewal Term. Subject to the terms of subsection (b) of this Section 3.1, all of
the terms and provisions of this Lease shall govern and be applicable to the
First Renewal Term and the Second Renewal Term (with the exceptions that (i)
there will be no period of rent-free occupancy at the commencement of either of
the Renewal Terms, (ii) Landlord will have no obligation to construct any
improvements, provide any allowances or grant any rental abatement prior to
commencement of accrual of Base Rent for either Renewal Term and (iii) there
will be no renewal of the Term other than the Renewal Terms) if Tenant timely
exercises its right to extend the Term in accordance with this subsection (a).

       (b) If Tenant timely and properly exercises its right to the First
Renewal Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Annual Base Rent during the First
Renewal Term, in lawful money of the United States commencing at the
commencement of the First Renewal Term, a per annum sum equal to the greater of
(i) the product obtained by multiplying the square footage of the Demised
Premises times an amount equal to the "Prevailing Market Rate" (as defined and
calculated in the manner set forth in Exhibit B attached to this Lease and
                                      ---------
incorporated herein by reference) in effect on the first day of the First
Renewal Term or (ii) the Base Rent which was in effect at the end of the Primary
Term. If Tenant properly exercises its right to the First Renewal Term, and
thereafter timely exercises its right to the Second Renewal Term, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord as Annual Base Rent during the Second Renewal Term, in lawful
money of the United States commencing at the commencement of the Second Renewal
Term, a per annum sum equal to the greater of (i) the product obtained by
multiplying the square footage of the Demised Premises times an amount equal to
the Prevailing Market Rate in effect as of the first day of the Second Renewal
Term or (ii) the Base Rent which was in effect at the end of the First Renewal
Term.

   4.  Base Rent.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord at the address set forth in
       ---------
Section 1(n), as base rent for the Demised Premises, commencing on the Base Rent
Commencement Date and continuing throughout the Term in lawful money of the
United States, the annual amount set forth in Section 1(d) payable in equal
monthly installments as set forth in Section 1(e) (the "Base Rent"), payable in
advance,
                                      -2-
<PAGE>

payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section 1(e) (the "Base
Rent"), payable in advance, without demand and without abatement, reduction,
set-off or deduction, on the first day of each calendar month during the Term.
If the Base Rent Commencement Date shall fall on a day other than the first day
of a calendar month, the Base Rent shall be apportioned pro rata on a per diem
basis (i) for the period between the Base Rent Commencement Date and the first
day of the following calendar month (which pro rata payment shall be due and
payable on the Base Rent Commencement Date), and (ii) for the last partial month
of the Term, if applicable. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of rent
hereunder shall be deemed to be other than on account of the amount due, and no
endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or
payment of rent shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may
accept such check as payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover
the balance of such installment or payment of rent or pursue any other remedies
available to Landlord.

        4.1  Landlord hereby agrees to provide to Tenant an allowance in the
amount of $400,000.00 ("Maximum Construction Allowance") for the installation of
the interior finish of the office area of the Demised Premises ("Allowance
Work"). If, following the final approval of the Plans and Specifications (as
defined in Section 17(a) of this Lease), Landlord reasonably determines that the
cost of the Allowance Work will exceed the amount of the Maximum Construction
Allowance, Landlord will give written notice of such determination to Tenant,
which notice will specify the estimated amount by which the cost of the
Allowance Work will exceed the Maximum Construction Allowance. Subject to the
rights of review and approval granted Tenant hereinafter in this Section 4.1,
Tenant agrees to deliver to Landlord such excess amount in cash within ten (10)
business days following receipt of such notice. If Tenant does not utilize the
full Maximum Construction Allowance, the unused portion may be applied by Tenant
as a credit against Base Rent and Additional Rent (as defined in Section 6)
which would otherwise accrue in accordance with this Lease. At any time after
the occurrence of Substantial Completion, Landlord and Tenant shall, within
thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of a written request from Landlord,
execute and deliver an amended and restated version of this Lease which will
delete this Section 4.1 in its entirety and delete any other references in this
Lease to the provisions of this Section 4.1. With respect to the Maximum
Construction Allowance, Landlord agrees that Landlord will give Tenant a
reasonable opportunity to review and approve any bids or contracts which
Landlord desires to accept from any contractor for performance of the work which
will be paid from the Maximum Construction Allowance; provided that Tenant must
respond in writing within five (5) business days after receipt of any written
submission from Landlord. A failure to respond timely shall constitute approval.
Landlord will not accept a bid or enter into a contract without the approval of
Tenant; provided that Tenant acknowledges that (i) Landlord will not be in a
position to submit an application for the Permits (as defined in Section 17(a))
without the required approval from Tenant and (ii) each day that elapses after
such fifth (5th) business day, until the requisite approval is obtained from
Tenant, will constitute a day of Tenant Delay (as defined in Section 17.1).

        4.2  Additional Allowance.  In addition to the Maximum Construction
             --------------------
Allowance, Landlord hereby agrees to provide to Tenant an additional allowance
("Supplemental Allowance") in the amount of $500,000.00, which will be available
for use by Tenant in accordance with this Section 4.2. Tenant may use the
Supplemental Allowance to fund the payment of the cost of any Allowance Work
which exceeds the Maximum Construction Allowance and then the payment of the
installation by Landlord of permanent improvements at the Demised Premises
("Additional Improvements"), in addition to the Allowance Work; provided that
the nature and scope of such work will be subject to the approval of Landlord,
not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Landlord will, to the
extent reasonably practicable, perform the Additional Work concurrently with
performance of the Allowance Work, subject to the condition that Landlord will
not be required to perform the Additional Work in any manner which would delay
the occurrence of Substantial Completion. To the extent that Tenant does not
utilize the Additional Allowance to pay excess cost for the Allowance Work or
the cost of Additional Improvements, the unused portion of the Additional
Allowance shall then be applied as a credit against Base Rent and Additional
Rent, up to a maximum of $243,229.26, and the balance, if any, will be paid to
Tenant in cash. Under no circumstances will Tenant have any right to receive the
payment from the Additional Allowance (except to the extent that Landlord may be
performing Additional Work), either in cash or as a credit against Base Rent,
until Tenant has acknowledged in writing the occurrence of Substantial
Completion.

   5.  [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

   6.  Operating Expenses and Additional Rent.
       --------------------------------------

       (a) Tenant agrees to pay as Additional Rent (as defined in Section 6(b)
below) its proportionate share of Operating Expenses (as hereinafter defined).
"Operating Expenses" shall be defined as all reasonable expenses for operation,
repair, replacement and maintenance as necessary to keep the Building and the
common areas, driveways, and parking areas associated therewith (collectively,
the "Building Common Area") in good order, condition and repair, including but
not limited to, utilities for the Building Common Area, expenses associated with
the driveways and parking areas (including sealing and restriping, and snow,
trash and ice removal), security systems, fire detection and prevention systems,
lighting facilities, landscaped areas, walkways, painting and caulking,
directional signage, curbs, drainage strips, sewer lines, all charges assessed
against or attributed to the Building pursuant to any applicable easements,
covenants, restrictions, agreements, declaration of protective covenants or
development standards, property management fees (provided that the amount of
management fees
                                      -3-
<PAGE>

included in the Operating Expenses actually billed to Tenant shall not exceed,
on an annual basis, two percent (2.0%) of the Base Rent in effect from time to
time), all real property taxes and special assessments imposed upon the
Building, the Building Common Area and the land on which the Building and the
Building Common Area are constructed, all costs of insurance paid by Landlord
with respect to the Building and the Building Common Area, and costs of
improvements to the Building and the Building Common Area required by any law,
ordinance or regulation applicable to the Building and the Building Common Area
generally (and not because of the particular use of the Building or the Building
Common Area by a particular tenant), which cost shall be amortized on a straight
line basis over the useful life of such improvement, as reasonably determined by
Landlord. Operating Expenses shall not include expenses for the costs of any
maintenance and repair required to be performed by Landlord at its own expense
under Section (10)(b). Further, Operating Expenses shall not include the costs
for capital improvements unless such costs are incurred for the purpose of
causing a material decrease in the Operating Expenses of the Building or the
Building Common Area or are made with respect to improvements made to comply
with laws, ordinances or regulations as described above. The proportionate share
of Operating Expenses to be paid by Tenant shall be a percentage of the
Operating Expenses based upon the proportion that the square footage of the
Demised Premises bears to the total square footage of the Building (such figure
referred to as "Tenant's Operating Expense Percentage" and set forth in Section
1(j)). Prior to or promptly after the beginning of each calendar year during the
Term. Landlord shall estimate the total amount of Operating Expenses to be paid
by Tenant during each such calendar year and Tenant shall pay to Landlord one-
twelfth (1/12) of such sum on the first day of each calendar month during each
such calendar year, or part thereof, during the Term. Within a reasonable time
after the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a statement
of the actual amount of Operating Expenses for such calendar year, and the
actual amount owed by Tenant, and within thirty (30) days after receipt of such
statement, Tenant shall pay any deficiency between the actual amount owed and
the estimates paid during such calendar year, or in the event of overpayment.
Landlord shall credit the amount of such overpayment toward the next installment
of Operating Expenses owed by Tenant or remit such overpayment to Tenant if the
Term has expired or has been terminated and no Event of Default exists
hereunder. The obligations in the immediately preceding sentence shall survive
the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease. If the Lease
Commencement Date shall fall on other than the first day of the calendar year,
and/or if the Expiration Date shall fall on other than the last day of the
calendar year, Tenant's proportionate share of the Operating Expenses for such
calendar year shall be apportioned prorata.

       (b) Any amounts required to be paid by Tenant hereunder (in addition to
Base Rent) and any charges or expenses incurred by Landlord on behalf of Tenant
under the terms of this Lease shall be considered "Additional Rent" payable in
the same manner and upon the same terms and conditions as the Base Rent reserved
hereunder except as set forth herein to the contrary. Any failure on the part of
Tenant to pay such Additional Rent when and as the same shall become due shall
entitle Landlord to the remedies available to it for non-payment of Base Rent.
Tenant's obligations for payment of Additional Rent shall begin to accrue on the
Lease Commencement Date regardless of the Base Rent Commencement Date.

       (c) If applicable in the jurisdiction where the Demised Premises are
located, Tenant shall pay and be liable for all rental, sales, use and inventory
taxes or other similar taxes, if any, on the amounts payable by Tenant hereunder
levied or imposed by any city, state, county or other governmental body having
authority, such payments to be in addition to all other payments required to be
paid Landlord by Tenant under the terms of this Lease. Such payment shall be
made by Tenant directly to such governmental body if billed to Tenant, or if
billed to Landlord, such payment shall be paid concurrently with the payment of
the Base Rent, Additional Rent, or such other charge upon which the tax is
based, all as set forth herein.

       (d) The books and records of Landlord pertaining to the determination of
Operating Expenses for any calendar year may be reviewed and/or audited by
Tenant or its representatives, at the expense of Tenant and during normal
business hours at the offices of Landlord located at 3424 Peachtree Road, Suite
1500, Atlanta, Georgia 30326 at any time within thirty-six (36) months following
the end of the calendar year for which review and/or the audit is to be
performed, provided that Tenant shall give Landlord not less than ten (10) days
prior written notice of the intent of Tenant to conduct the review and/or audit.

   7.  Use of Demised Premises.
       -----------------------

       (a) The Demised Premises shall be used for the Permitted Use set forth in
Section 1(1) and for no other purpose.

       (b) Tenant will permit no liens to attach or exist against the Demised
Premises, and shall not commit any waste.

       (c) The Demised Premises shall not be used for any illegal purposes, and
Tenant shall not allow, suffer, or permit any vibration, noise, odor, light or
other effect to occur within or around the Demised Premises that could
constitute a nuisance or trespass for Landlord of any occupant of the Building
or an adjoining building, its customers, agents, or invitees. Upon notice by
Landlord to Tenant

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

that any of the aforesaid prohibited uses are occurring. Tenant agrees to
promptly remove or control the same.

       (d) Tenant shall not in any way violate any law, ordinance or restrictive
covenant affecting the Demised Premises, and shall not in any manner use the
Demised Premises so as to cause cancellation of, prevent the use of, or increase
the rate of, the fire and extended coverage insurance policy required hereunder.
Landlord makes no (and does hereby expressly disclaim any) covenant,
representation or warranty as to the Permitted Use being allowed by or being in
compliance with any applicable laws, rules, ordinances or restrictive covenants
now or hereafter affecting the Demised Premises, and any zoning letters, copies
of zoning ordinances or other information from any governmental agency or other
third party provided to Tenant by Landlord or any of Landlord's agents or
employees shall be for informational purposes only, Tenant hereby expressly
acknowledging and agreeing that Tenant shall conduct and rely solely on its own
due diligence and investigation with respect to the compliance of the Permitted
Use with all such applicable laws, rules, ordinances and restrictive covenants
and not on any such information provided by Landlord or any of its agents or
employees.

       (e) In the event insurance premiums pertaining to the Demised Premises,
the Building, or the Building Common Area, whether paid by Landlord or Tenant,
are increased over the least hazardous rate available due to the nature of the
use of the Demised Premises by Tenant, Tenant shall pay such additional amount
as Additional Rent.

   8.  Insurance.
       ---------

       (a) Tenant covenants and agrees that from and after the Lease
Commencement Date or any earlier date upon which Tenant enters or occupies the
Demised Premises or any portion thereof, Tenant will carry and maintain, at its
sole cost and expense, the following types of insurance, in the amounts
specified and in the form hereinafter provided for:

           (i)  Liability insurance in the Commercial General Liability form (or
reasonable equivalent thereto) covering the Demised Premises and Tenant's use
thereof against claims for bodily injury or death, property damage and product
liability occurring upon, in or about the Demised Premises, such insurance to be
written on an occurrence basis (not a claims made basis), to be in combined
single limits amounts not less than $3,000,000.00 and to have general aggregate
limits of not less than $5,000,000.00 for each policy year. The insurance
coverage required under this Section 8(a)(i) shall, in addition, extend to any
liability of Tenant arising out of the indemnities provided for in Section 11
and, if necessary, the policy shall contain a contractual endorsement to that
effect. The liability insurance coverage required by this subsection (i) may be
provided through a combination of primary and umbrella coverage as may be
customarily utilized by Tenant, subject to the prior review and approval of
Landlord, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

           (ii) Insurance covering (A) all of the items included in the
leasehold improvements constructed in the Demised Premises by or at the expenses
of Landlord (collectively, the "Improvements"), including but not limited to
demising walls and the heating, ventilating and air conditioning system and (B)
Tenant's trade fixtures, merchandise and personal property from time to time in,
on or upon the Demised Premises, in an amount not less than one hundred percent
(100%) of their full replacement value from time to time during the Term,
providing protection against perils included within the standard form of "all-
risks" fire and casualty insurance policy, together with insurance against
sprinkler damage, vandalism and malicious mischief. Any policy proceeds from
such insurance relating to the Improvements shall be used solely for the repair,
construction and restoration or replacement of the Improvements damaged or
destroyed unless this Lease shall cease and terminate under the provisions of
Section 20.

       (b) All policies of the insurance provided for in Section 8(a) shall be
issued in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord by insurance companies with a
rating of not less than "A," and financial size of not less than Class XII, in
the most current available "Best's Insurance Reports", and licensed to do
business in the state in which the Building is located. Each and every such
policy:

           (i)   shall name Landlord, Lender (as defined in Section 24), and any
other party reasonably designated by Landlord, as an additional insured. In
addition, the coverage described in Section 8(a)(ii)(A) relating to the
Improvements shall also name Landlord as "loss payee";

           (ii)  shall be delivered to Landlord, in the form of an insurance
certificate acceptable to Landlord as evidence of such policy, prior to the
Lease Commencement Date and thereafter within thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration of each such policy, and, as often as any such policy shall expire or
terminate. Renewal or additional policies shall be procured and maintained by
Tenant in like manner and to like extent;

           (iii) shall contain a provision that the insurer will give to
Landlord and such other parties in interest at least fifteen (15) days notice in
writing in advance of any material change, cancellation, termination or lapse,
or the effective date of any reduction in the amounts of insurance; and

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

           (iv)  shall be written as a primary policy which does not contribute
to and is not in excess of coverage which Landlord may carry.

       (c) In the event that Tenant shall fail to carry and maintain the
insurance coverages set forth in this Section 8, Landlord may upon thirty (30)
days notice to Tenant (unless such coverages will lapse in which event no such
notice shall be necessary) procure such policies of insurance and Tenant shall
promptly reimburse Landlord therefor.

       (d) Any insurance provided for in Section 8(a) may be maintained by
means of a policy or policies of blanket insurance, covering additional items or
locations or insureds, provided, however, that:

          (i)  Landlord and any Mortgagee (as defined in Section 24) shall be
named as an additional insured thereunder as its interest may appear, and

          (ii) the requirements set forth in this Section 8 are otherwise
satisfied.

       (e) Landlord covenants and agrees that, from and after the Lease
Commencement Date, Landlord will carry and maintain the following types of
insurance (with all premium costs related thereto being included in Operating
Expenses), in the form and with amounts of coverage as hereinafter required:

           (i)   Liability insurance in the commercial general liability form,
covering the Building and the Land, against claims for personal injury or death
and property damage upon, in or about the Land and the Building, such Insurance
to be written on an occurrence basis (not a claims made basis) with combined
single limit coverage of not less than $3,000,000.00 and with a general
aggregate limit of not less than $5,000,000.00 for each policy year;

           (ii)  insurance on the "all-risk" or equivalent form, on a
replacement cost basis, against loss or damage to the Building (excluding
foundation); and

           (iii) rent loss insurance covering loss of rental income under this
Lease for a period of not less than twelve (12) months and such other insurance
as Landlord reasonably deems necessary for prudent ownership and management of
the Building.

All policies of insurance required to be carried by Landlord pursuant to this
Section 8(e) shall be issued by insurance companies with a rating of not less
than A+, with a financial size reasonably consistent with the size and nature
of the risk being insured and licensed to do business in the State of Illinois.
With respect to each and every policy of insurance carried by Landlord pursuant
to this subsection (e), Landlord shall, within ten (10) business days after
receipt of a written request from Tenant, deliver to Tenant a certificate
evidencing the required coverage and containing a provision that each insurer
will give to Tenant at least thirty (30) days notice in writing in advance of
any material change, cancellation, termination or lapse, or the effective date
of any reduction in the amounts of insurance.

       (f) Landlord and Tenant hereby waive any rights each may have against the
other on account of any loss or damage occasioned to Landlord or Tenant, as the
case may be, their respective property, the Demised Premises, its contents or to
the other portions of the Building, arising from any risk covered by all risks
fire and extended coverage insurance of the type and amount required to be
carried hereunder, provided that such waiver does not invalidate such policies
or prohibit recovery thereunder. The parties hereto shall cause their respective
insurance companies insuring the property of either Landlord or Tenant against
any such loss, to waive any right of subrogation that such insurers may have
against Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be.

   9. Utilities. During the Term, Tenant shall promptly pay as billed to Tenant
      ---------
all rents and charges for water and sewer services and all costs and charges for
gas, steam, electricity, fuel, light, power, telephone, heat and any other
utility or service used or consumed in or servicing the Demised Premises and all
other costs and expenses involved in the care, management and use thereof. To
the extent reasonably possible, such utilities shall be separately metered and
billed to Tenant. Any utilities which are not separately metered shall be billed
to Tenant by Landlord at Landlord's actual cost. In the event Tenant's use of
any utility not metered is in excess of the average use by other tenants,
Landlord shall have the right to install a meter for such utility, at Tenant's
expense, and bill Tenant for Tenant's actual use. If Tenant fails to pay any
utility bills or charges, Landlord may, at its option and upon reasonable notice
to Tenant, pay the same and in such event, the amount of such payment, together
with interest thereon at the Interest Rate as defined in Section 32 from the
date of such payment by Landlord, will be added to Tenant's next due payment as
Additional Rent.

   10. Maintenance and Repairs.
       -----------------------

       (a) Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain in good condition
and repair the interior of the Demised Premises, including but not limited to
the heating, air conditioning and ventilation systems, glass, windows and doors,
sprinkler, all plumbing and sewage systems, fixtures, interior walls, floors
(including floor slabs), ceilings, storefronts, plate glass, skylights, all
electrical

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

facilities and equipment including, without limitation, lighting fixtures,
lamps, fans and any exhaust equipment and systems, electrical motors, and all
other appliances and equipment (including, without limitation, dock levelers,
dock shelters, dock seals and dock lighting) of every kind and nature located
in, upon or about the Demised Premises, except as to such maintenance and
repair as is the obligation of Landlord pursuant to Section 10(b). During the
Term, Tenant shall maintain in full force and effect a service contract for the
maintenance of the heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems with an
entity reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (i) a
copy of said service contract prior to the Lease Commencement Date, and (ii)
thereafter, a copy of a renewal or substitute service contract within thirty
(30) days prior to the expiration of the existing service contract. Tenant's
obligation shall exclude any maintenance and repair required because of the act
or negligence of Landlord, its employees, contractors or agents, which shall be
the responsibility of Landlord. Tenant shall not be required under any provision
of this Lease to place the Demised Premises in better condition than the
condition in which the Demised Premises was delivered to Tenant.

       (b) Landlord shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain in good
condition and repair the roof, foundation (beneath the floor slab) and
structural frame of the Building. Landlord's obligation shall exclude the cost
of any maintenance or repair required because of the act or negligence of Tenant
or Tenant's agents, contractors, employees and invitees (collectively, "Tenant's
Affiliates"), the cost of which shall be the responsibility of Tenant.

       (c) Unless the same is caused solely by the negligent action or inaction
of Landlord, its employees or agents, and is not covered by the insurance
required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, Landlord
shall not be liable to Tenant or to any other person for any damage occasioned
by failure in any utility system or by the bursting or leaking of any vessel
or pipe in or about the Demised Premises, or for any damage occasioned by water
coming into the Demised Premises or arising from the acts or neglects of
occupants of adjacent property or the public.

   11. Tenant's Personal Property; Indemnity. All of Tenant's personal property
       -------------------------------------
in the Demised Premises shall be and remain at Tenant's sole risk. Landlord,
its agents, employees and contractors, shall not be liable for, and Tenant
hereby releases Landlord from, any and all liability for theft thereof or any
damage thereto occasioned by any act of God or by any acts, omissions or
negligence of any persons. Landlord and Tenant each hereby agrees to indemnify,
defend, protect and hold the other party harmless from and against any and all
losses, costs, liabilities, damages and expenses, including, but not limited to,
penalties, fines, reasonable attorney's fees and costs actually incurred, but
specifically excluding consequential and indirect damages (collectively,
"Claims"), to the extent such Claims (i) are caused or result from the
activities (including the negligence or willfulness conduct) of the indemnifying
party or its respective agents, contractors or employees in or on the Demised
Premises, Building or Land, and (ii) are not insured (or required to be insured)
by the indemnified party pursuant to the provisions of this Lease; provided,
however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not extend to any Claims to the
extent resulting from the negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified
party. The foregoing mutual indemnity is intended to be consistent with the
waivers as set forth in Section 8(e) of this Lease, pursuant to which (A) each
party has waived its respective rights against the other party to the extent any
losses, damages or other Claims are insured or required to be insured under
property damage policies by such party pursuant to the provisions of this Lease,
and (B) has agreed to cause such party's respective insurance carrier to include
a waiver of subrogation (to the extent obtainable) in their respective property
damage insurance policies. The foregoing indemnities, and the waivers set forth
in Section 8(e), are not intended to and shall not relieve any insurance carrier
of its obligations to provide insurance coverage pursuant to insurance policies
obtained pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. The provisions of this
Section 11 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

   12. Tenant's Fixtures. Tenant shall have the right to install in the Demised
       -----------------
Premises trade fixtures required by Tenant or used by it in its business, and if
installed by Tenant, to remove any or all such trade fixtures from time to time
during and upon termination or expiration of this Lease, provided no Event of
Default, as defined Section 22, then exists; provided, however, that Tenant
                                             --------  -------
shall repair and restore any damage or injury to the Demised Premises (to the
condition in which the Demised Premises existed prior to such installation)
caused by the installation and/or removal of any such trade fixtures.

   13. Signs.  No sign, advertisement or notice shall be inscribed, painted,
       -----
affixed, or displayed on the windows or exterior walls of the Demised Premises
or on any public area of the Building, except in such places, numbers, sizes,
colors and styles as are approved in advance in writing by Landlord, which
approval will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and which
conform to all applicable laws, ordinances, or covenants affecting the Demised
Premises. Any and all signs installed or constructed by or on behalf of Tenant
pursuant hereto shall be installed, maintained and removed by Tenant at Tenant's
sole cost and expense.

   14. No Landlord's Lien. With the exception of any lien which Landlord may
       ------------------
obtain by virtue of a judgment against Tenant, Landlord hereby waives and
releases any lien or claim of lien, statutory or otherwise, which Landlord may
be entitled to assert under the laws of the state of Illinois upon or against
any personal property and trade fixtures of Tenant situated in and upon the
Demised Premises. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that Tenant will have the
right to grant security interests to third parties in the personal property of
Tenant at the Demised Premises. Landlord waives its rights under the laws of the
state of Illinois to file or seek a distress or distraint levy or warrant with
respect to any personal property

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

of Tenant at the Demised Premises which is subject to any form of security
interest held by a third party unrelated to Tenant.

   15. Governmental Regulations. Tenant shall promptly comply throughout the
       ------------------------
Term, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, with all present and future laws,
ordinances, orders, rules, regulations or requirements of all federal, state and
municipal governments and appropriate departments, commissions, boards and
officers thereof (collectively, "Governmental Requirements") relating to (a) all
or any part of the Demised Premises, and (b) to the use or manner of use by
Tenant of the Demised Premises and the Building Common Area. Tenant shall also
observe and comply with the requirements of all policies of public liability,
fire and other policies of insurance at any time in force with respect to the
Demised Premises.

   16. Environmental Matters.
       ---------------------

       (a) For purposes of this Lease:

           (i)   "Contamination" as used herein means the presence of or release
of Hazardous Substances (as hereinafter defined) into any environmental media
from, upon, within, below, into or on any portion of the Demised Premises, the
Building, the Building Common Area or the Project so as to require remediation,
cleanup or investigation under any applicable Environmental Law (as hereinafter
defined).

          (ii)  "Environmental Laws" as used herein means all federal, state,
and local laws, regulations, orders, permits, ordinances or other requirements,
which exist now or as may exist hereafter, concerning protection of human
health, safety and the environment, all as may be amended from time to time.

          (iii) "Hazardous Substances" as used herein means any hazardous or
toxic substance, material, chemical, pollutant, contaminant or waste as those
terms are defined by any applicable Environmental Laws (including, without
limitation, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability
Act, 42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq. ("CERCLA") and the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq. ["RCRA"]) and any solid wastes,
polychlorinated biphenyls, urea formaldehyde, asbestos, radioactive materials,
radon, explosives, petroleum products and oil.

       (b) Landlord represents that, except as revealed to Tenant in writing by
Landlord, to Landlord's actual knowledge, Landlord has not treated, stored or
disposed of any Hazardous Substances upon or within the Demised Premises, nor,
to Landlord's actual knowledge, has any predecessor owner of the Demised
Premises.

       (c) Tenant covenants that all its activities, and the activities of
Tenant's Affiliates (as defined in Section 10(b)), on the Demised Premises,
the Building, or the Project during the Term will be conducted in compliance
with Environmental Laws. Tenant warrants that it is currently in compliance with
all applicable Environmental Laws and that there are no pending or threatened
notices of deficiency, notices of violation, orders, or judicial or
administrative actions involving alleged violations by Tenant of any
Environmental Laws. Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall be
responsible for obtaining all permits or licenses or approvals under
Environmental Laws necessary for Tenant's operation of its business on the
Demised Premises and shall make all notifications and registrations required by
any applicable Environmental Laws. Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense,
shall at all times comply with the terms and conditions of all such permits,
licenses, approvals, notifications and registrations and with any other
applicable Environmental Laws. Tenant warrants that it has obtained all such
permits, licenses or approvals and made all such notifications and registrations
required by any applicable Environmental Laws necessary for Tenant's operation
of its business on the Demised Premises.

       (d) Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Substances to be
brought upon, kept or used in or about the Demised Premises, the Building, or
the Project without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that the consent of Landlord
                              --------  -------
shall not be required for the use at the Demised Premises of cleaning supplies,
toner for photocopying machines and other similar materials, in containers and
quantities reasonably necessary for and consistent with normal and ordinary use
by Tenant in the routine operation or maintenance of Tenant's office equipment
or in the routine janitorial service, cleaning and maintenance for the Demised
Premises. For purposes of this Section 16, Landlord shall be deemed to have
reasonably withheld consent if Landlord determines that the presence of such
Hazardous Substance within the Demised Premises could result in a risk of harm
to person or property or otherwise negatively affect the value or marketability
of the Building or the Project.

       (e) Tenant shall not cause or permit the release of any Hazardous
Substances by Tenant or Tenant's Affiliates into any environmental media such as
air, water or land, or into or on the Demised Premises, the Building or the
Project in any manner that violates any Environmental Laws. If such release
shall occur, Tenant shall (i) take all steps reasonably necessary to contain and
control such release and any associated Contamination, (ii) clean up or
otherwise remedy such release and any associated Contamination to the extent
required by, and take any and all other actions required under,

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

applicable Environmental Laws and (iii) notify and keep Landlord reasonably
informed of such release and response.

       (f) Regardless of any consents granted by Landlord pursuant to Section
16(d) allowing Hazardous Substances upon the Demised Premises, Tenant shall
under no circumstances whatsoever cause or permit (i) any activity on the
Demised Premises which would cause the Demised Premises to become subject to
regulation as a hazardous waste treatment, storage or disposal facility under
RCRA or the regulations promulgated thereunder, (ii) the discharge of Hazardous
Substances into the storm sewer system serving the Project or (iii) the
installation of any underground storage tank or underground piping on or under
the Demised Premises.

       (g) Tenant shall and hereby does indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord
harmless from and against any and all expense, loss, and liability suffered by
Landlord (except to the extent that such expenses, losses, and liabilities arise
out of Landlord's own negligence or willful act), by reason of the storage,
generation, release, handling, treatment, transportation, disposal, or
arrangement for transportation or disposal, of any Hazardous Substances (whether
accidental, intentional, or negligent) by Tenant or Tenant's Affiliates or by
reason of Tenant's breach of any of the provisions of this Section 16. Such
expenses, losses and liabilities shall include, without limitation, (i) any and
all expenses that Landlord may incur to comply with any Environmental Laws; (ii)
any and all costs that Landlord may incur in studying or remedying any
Contamination at or arising from the Demised Premises, the Building, or the
Project; (iii) any and all costs that Landlord may incur in studying, removing,

earlier termination of this Lease.

   17. Construction of Demised Premises.
       --------------------------------

       (a) Landlord will submit to Tenant, within ten (10) calendar days
execution of this Lease, a proposed floor plan for the interior of the Demised
Premises. If Tenant does not approve the proposed floor plan within ten (10)
calendar days after receipt of the proposed plan or after the Lease Date,
whichever is later, each day that elapses after such tenth (10th) calendar day,
until the approval is given by Tenant, will constitute a day of Tenant Delay.
Within ten (10) days after the date on which Landlord receives written approval
from Tenant for such floor plan for the interior of the Demised Premises,
Landlord shall prepare, at Landlord's sole cost and expense (provided that all
such costs incurred and payable by Landlord to third parties shall be chargeable
against the Maximum Construction Allowance), and submit to Tenant a set of plans
and specifications and/or construction drawings (collectively, the "Plans and
Specifications") based on the preliminary plans and specifications and/or
preliminary floor plans set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto and incorporated
                                     ---------
herein, covering all work to be performed by Landlord in constructing the
interior improvements for the Demised Premises. Tenant shall have five (5)
business days to approve the Plans and Specifications. A failure of any proposed
plans or specifications to conform to Exhibit C shall be a proper basis for
                                      ---------
disapproval. In the process of reviewing and approving the proposed Plans and
Specifications, Tenant shall not have the right to request any material change
in scope of the work after final approval of the Plans and Specifications by
Tenant, any subsequent changes thereto requested by Tenant shall be at Tenant's
sole cost and expense and subject to Landlord's written approval, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned Landlord will, promptly
after receipt of the written approval of the Plans and Specifications by Tenant,
submit to the Village of Bolingbrook, such applications as may be necessary to
obtain all permits (collectively, the "Permits") required for the work
contemplated by the Plans and Specifications (which will include the Allowance
Work). Landlord will diligently pursue issue of the Permits.

       (b) Landlord shall, subject to the occurrence of Permitted Delay (as
defined in Section 17.1), use reasonable diligence to achieve Substantial
Completion (as defined in subsection (g), below) of the improvements
contemplated by the Plans and Specifications (the "Landlord's Work"), at
Landlord's sole cost and expense (subject to the provisions of Section 4.1 and
use of the Maximum Construction Allowance for costs incurred by Landlord and
payable to third parties), and have the Demised Premises ready for occupancy not
later than May 1, 1999. In the event Landlord fails to achieve Substantial
Completion not later than May 1, 1999 as extended by Permitted Delay, then, in
either such event, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and the
Lease Commencement Date and the Expiration Date shall be postponed one day for
each day that Substantial Completion is delayed, until the Demised Premises are
Substantially Complete; provided, however, that if Landlord fails to achieve
Substantial Completion not later than September 1, 1999, as such date may be
extended only by Tenant Delay (as defined in Section 17.1), Tenant will have
the right, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Lease by giving written notice
to Landlord at any time prior to the occurrence of Substantial Completion. If
Tenant was entitled to give a notice of termination, but fails or elects not
to do so, and Landlord achieves Substantial Completion, the right of Tenant to
terminate this Lease pursuant to this subsection (b) will automatically expire.

       (c) Upon Substantial Completion of the Demised Premises, a representative
of Landlord and a representative of Tenant together shall inspect the Demised
Premises and generate a punchlist of defective or uncompleted item, relating to
the completion of construction of the improvements within the Demised Premises.
After such punchlist is prepared and agreed upon in writing

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

by Landlord and Tenant ("Punchlist"), with each of Landlord and Tenant acting
reasonably and in good faith. Landlord shall in accordance with the terms of
this Lease (i) within forty-five (45) calendar days thereafter complete such
incomplete work and remedy such nonconforming or defective work as is set forth
on the Punchlist, in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, and which are
of such a nature that completion thereof is reasonably practicable within forty-
five (45) days and (ii) complete all remaining items on the Punchlist with due
diligence and within a time period, as to each particular item, which is
reasonable, giving due regard for the nature of the work to be performed.

        (d) Upon acceptance of the Demised Premises by Tenant, Tenant shall
execute and deliver to Landlord a letter of acceptance confirming that the Lease
Commencement Date and Base Rent Commencement Date, and Expiration Date remain as
set forth in Section 1, or if revised pursuant to the terms hereof, setting
forth such dates as so revised.

        (e) Landlord shall, subject to the occurrence of Permitted Delay, use
reasonable diligence to achieve Partial Completion (as defined in Subsection
(f), below) of the Landlord's Work not later than April 1, 1999; provided that
Landlord shall not incur any penalty or liability as a result of a failure to
achieve Partial Completion by such date. Tenant shall have the right, upon the
occurrence of Partial Completion, to enter the Demised Premises in order to
install racking and otherwise prepare the Demised Premises for occupancy. In
connection with such entry, (i) Tenant shall comply with all terms and
conditions of this Lease other than the obligation to pay rent, (ii) Tenant
shall not interfere with Landlord's completion of the Demised Premises and (iii)
Tenant shall not begin operation of its business or store any inventory or
equipment.

       (f) For purposes of this Lease, the term "Substantial Completion" shall
mean completion of construction of the Landlord's Work in accordance with the
Plans and Specifications, subject only to Punchlist items established pursuant
to Section 17(c), so that Tenant can lawfully occupy and conduct its business at
the Demised Premises, as evidenced by the delivery by Landlord to Tenant of a
certificate of occupancy (or temporary certificate of occupancy or its
equivalent) for the Demised Premises issued by the appropriate governmental
authority. In the event Substantial Completion is delayed because of Tenant
Delay (as defined in Section 17.1), then Substantial Completion shall, for the
purpose of establishing the Lease Commencement Date, be deemed to mean the date
when Substantial Completion would have been achieved but for such Tenant Delay.
For purposes of this Lease, the term "Partial Completion" shall mean completion
of Landlord's Work to the following extent: sufficient completion of the
warehouse to allow installation of racking.

       (g) Landlord hereby warrants to Tenant that the materials and equipment
furnished by Landlord's contractors in the completion of the Improvements will
be of good quality and new, that during the one (1) year period following the
Lease Commencement Date, such materials and equipment and the work of such
contractors shall be free from defects not inherent in the quality required or
permitted hereunder, that such work will conform to the Plans and Specifications
and that such work will conform to applicable codes, laws and regulations of
governmental authorities in effect on the date of Substantial Completion. This
warranty shall exclude damages or defects caused by Tenant or Tenant's
Affiliates, improper or insufficient maintenance, improper operation, or normal
wear and tear under normal usage.

       17.1 Delay.
            -----

       (a) With respect to the provisions (collectively "Construction
Provisions") of this Lease which govern (i) construction of the Demised Premises
and (ii) restoration of the Demised Premises after the occurrence of a casualty
or condemnation, neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be liable to the other nor
shall either be deemed to be in default under this Lease for any failure or
delay in performance of such party's obligations if and only to the extent such
failure or delay is caused by any "Permitted Delay", as defined in this Section
17.1, and subject in each instance to all the requirements of this Section 17.1.
Unless this Lease specifically provides otherwise, any such performance or time
for performance shall be extended for the period of any Permitted Delay,
provided the party claiming the benefit of the Permitted Delay adheres to the
requirements of this Section 17.1.

       (b) An event or occurrence constituting a Permitted Delay shall include
any of the following (provided, however, that the events set forth in the
following subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) shall not constitute a Permitted Delay
for Tenant nor extend the Lease Commencement Date):

           (i) any act or neglect of Tenant or of any contractor or
representative or employee employed or controlled by Tenant to the extent
actually causing a delay in performance by Landlord of its obligations under
this Lease;

           (ii) any failure of Tenant to provide Landlord with any required
documents, specifications, consents or approvals within the time limitations set
forth in this Lease;

           (iii) any change in the Landlord's Work requested by Tenant after
final approval by Tenant of the Plans and Specifications which provides for an
extension of time for

                                      -10-

performance by Landlord (the events described in the foregoing (i), (ii) and
(iii) are sometimes referred to collectively as "Tenant Delay");

           (iv)   confiscation or requisitioning of facilities or inability to
secure materials or labor solely as a result of an act, order or regulation of
any governmental authority;

           (v)    civil disturbances or acts of declared or undeclared war or
the public enemy;

           (vi)   strikes or other labor troubles;

           (vii)  casualty or condemnation;

           (viii) floods or earthquakes; and

           (ix)   adverse weather conditions.

       (c) The party claiming a Permitted Delay shall endeavor to use
reasonable efforts to perform in spite of the Permitted Delay; provided that
such reasonable efforts shall not require the incurring of any additional
expense or liability.

       (d) This Section 17.1 shall apply only to the Construction Provisions and
no other provision of this Lease.

   18. Tenant Alterations and Additions.
       --------------------------------

       (a) Tenant shall not make or permit to be made any alterations,
improvements, or additions to the Demised Premises (a "Tenant's Change"),
without first obtaining on each occasion Landlord's prior written consent (which
consent Landlord agrees not to unreasonably withhold) and Lender's prior written
consent (if such consent is required). As part of its approval process, Landlord
may require that Tenant submit plans and specifications to Landlord, for
Landlord's approval or disapproval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld. All Tenant's Changes shall be performed in accordance with all legal
requirements applicable thereto and in a good and workmanlike manner with first-
class materials. Tenant shall maintain insurance reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord during the construction of all Tenant's Changes. If Landlord at the
time of giving its approval to any Tenant's Change notifies Tenant in writing
that approval is conditioned upon restoration, then Tenant shall, at its sole
cost and expense and upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, remove
the same and restore the Demised Premises to its condition prior to such
Tenant's Change. No Tenant's Change shall be structural in nature or impair the
structural strength of the Building or reduce its value. Tenant shall pay the
full cost of any Tenant's Change and shall give Landlord such reasonable
security as may be requested by Landlord to insure payment of such cost. Except
as otherwise provided herein and in Section 12, all Tenant's Changes and all
repairs and all other property attached to or installed on the Demised Premises
by or on behalf of Tenant shall immediately upon completion or installation
thereof be and become part of the Demised Premises and the property of Landlord
without payment therefor by Landlord and shall be surrendered to Landlord upon
the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

       (b) To the extent permitted by law, all of Tenant's contracts and
subcontracts for such Tenant's Changes shall provide that no lien shall attach
to or be claimed against the Demised Premises or any interest therein other than
Tenant's leasehold interest in the Demised Premises, and that all subcontracts
let thereunder shall contain the same provison. Whether or not Tenant furnishes
the foregoing, Tenant agrees to hold Landlord harmless against all liens, claims
and liabilities of every kind, nature and description which may arise out of or
in any way be connected with such work. Tenant shall not permit the Demised
Premises to become subject to any mechanics', laborers' or materialmen's lien on
account of labor, material or services furnished to Tenant or claimed to have
been furnished to Tenant in connection with work of any character performed or
claimed to have been performed for the Demised Premises by, or at the direction
or sufferance of Tenant and if any such liens are filed against the Demised
Premises, Tenant shall promptly discharge the same; provided, however, that
                                                    --------  -------
Tenant shall have the right to contest, in good faith and with reasonable
diligence, the validity of any such lien or claimed lien if Tenant shall give
to Landlord, within fifteen days after demand, such security as may be
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord to assure payment thereof and to prevent any
sale, foreclosure, or forfeiture of Landlord's interest in the Demised Premises
by reason of non-payment thereof, provided further that on final determination
of the lien or claim for lien, Tenant shall immediately pay any judgment
rendered, with all proper costs and charges, and shall have the lien released
and any judgment satisfied. If Tenant fails to post such security or does not
diligently contest such lien, Landlord may, without investigation of the
validity of the lien claim, discharge such lien and Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord upon demand for all costs and expenses incurred in connection
therewith, which expenses shall include any attorneys' fees, paralegals' fees
and any and all costs associated therewith, including litigation through all
trial and appellate levels and any costs in posting bond to a discharge or
release of the lien. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as a
consent on the part of Landlord to subject the Demised Premises to liability
under any lien law now or hereafter existing of the state in which the Demised
Premises are located.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

   19. Services by Landlord. Landlord shall be responsible for providing for
       --------------------
maintenance of the Building Common Area, and, except as required by Section
10(b) hereof, Landlord shall be responsible for no other services whatsoever.
Tenant, by payment of Tenant's share of the Operating Expenses, shall pay
Tenant's pro rata share of the expenses incurred by Landlord hereunder.

   20. Fire and Other Casualty. In the event the Demised Premises are damaged by
       -----------------------
fire or other casualty insured by Landlord, Landlord agrees to promptly restore
and repair the Demised Premises at Landlord's expense, including the
Improvements to be insured by Tenant but only to the extent Landlord receives
insurance proceeds therefor, including the proceeds from the insurance required
to be carried by Tenant on the improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the event that the Demised Premises are (i) in the reasonable opinion of
Landlord, so destroyed that they cannot be repaired or rebuilt within one
hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such damage; or (ii) destroyed by a
casualty which is not covered by Landlord's insurance, or if such casualty is
covered by Landlord's insurance but Lender or other party entitled to insurance
proceeds fails to make such proceeds available to Landlord in an amount
sufficient for restoration of the Demised Premises, then Landlord shall give
written notice to Tenant of such determination (the "Determination Notice")
within sixty (60) days of such casualty. Either Landlord or Tenant may terminate
and cancel this lease effective as of the date of such casualty by giving
written notice to the other party within thirty (30) days after Tenant's receipt
of the Determination Notice. Upon the giving of such termination notice, all
obligations hereunder with respect to periods from and after the effective date
of termination shall thereupon cease and terminate. If no such termination
notice is given, Landlord shall, to the extent of the available insurance
proceeds, make such repair and restoration of the Demised Premises to the
approximate condition existing prior to such casualty, promptly and in such
manner as not to unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy of the
Demised Premises (if Tenant is still occupying the Demised Premises). Base Rent
and Additional Rent shall proportionately abate during the time that the Demised
Premises or any part thereof are unusable by reason of any such damage thereto.


   21. Condemnation.
       ------------

       (a) If all of the Demised Premises is taken or condemned for a public or
quasi-public use, or if a material portion of the Demised Premises is taken or
condemned for a public or quasi-public use and the remaining portion thereof is
not usable by Tenant in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, this Lease shall
terminate as of the earlier of the date title to the condemned real estate vests
in the condemnor or the date on which Tenant is deprived of possession of the
Demised Premises. In such event, the Base Rent herein reserved and all
Additional Rent and other sums payable hereunder shall be apportioned and paid
in full by Tenant to Landlord to that date, all Base Rent, Additional Rent and
other sums payable hereunder prepaid for periods beyond that date shall
forthwith be repaid by Landlord to Tenant, and neither party shall thereafter
have any liability hereunder, except that any obligation or liability of either
party, actual or contingent, under this Lease which has accrued on or prior to
such termination date shall survive.

       (b) If only part of the Demised Premises is taken or condemned for a
public or quasi-public use and this Lease does not terminate pursuant to Section
21(a), Landlord shall, to the extent of the award it receives, restore the
Demised Premises to a condition and to a size as nearly comparable as reasonably
possible to the condition and size thereof immediately prior to the taking, and
there shall be an equitable adjustment to the Base Rent and Additional Rent
based on the loss of use of the Demised Premise suffered by Tenant as a result
of the taking.

       (c) Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award in any
proceeding with respect to any taking provided for in this Section 21, without
deduction therefrom for any estate vested in Tenant by this Lease, and Tenant
shall receive no part of such award. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
prohibit Tenant from making a separate claim, against the condemnor, to the
extent permitted by law, for the value of Tenant's moveable trade fixtures,
machinery and moving expenses, provided that the making of such claim shall not
and does not adversely affect or diminish Landlord's award.

   22. Tenant's Default.
       ----------------

       (a) The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall
constitute an "Event of Default" of Tenant under this Lease:

          (i) if Tenant fails to pay Base Rent or any Additional Rent hereunder
as and when such rent becomes due and such failure shall continue for more than
ten (10) days after Landlord gives written notice to Tenant of such failure;

          (ii) if a lien held by a person claiming through or under Tenant is
filed against the Demised Premises and Tenant fails to discharge or bond such
lien, or post security with Landlord acceptable to Landlord within thirty (30)
days after receipt by Tenant of written notice thereof;

          (iii) if Tenant fails to maintain in force all policies of insurance
required by this Lease and such failure shall continue for more than ten (10)
days after Landlord gives Tenant written notice of such failure;

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

          (iv)   if any petition is filed by or against Tenant or any guarantor
of this Lease under any present or future section or chapter of the Bankruptcy
Code, or under any similar law or statute of the United States or any state
thereof (which, in the case of an involuntary proceeding, is not permanently
discharged, dismissed, stayed, or vacated, as the case may be, within sixty (60)
days of commencement), or if any final order for relief shall be entered against
Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease in any such proceedings;

          (v)   if Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease becomes insolvent or
makes a transfer in fraud of creditors or makes an assignment for the benefit of
creditors;

          (vi)  if a receiver, custodian, or trustee is appointed for the
Demised Premises or for all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or of
any guarantor of this Lease, which appointment is not vacated within sixty (60)
days following the date of such appointment; or

          (vii) if Tenant fails to perform or observe any other term of this
Lease and such failure shall continue for more than thirty (30) days after
Landlord gives Tenant written notice of such failure, or, if such failure cannot
be corrected within such thirty (30) day period, if Tenant does not commence to
correct such default within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter
diligently prosecute the correction of same to completion within a reasonable
time.

       (b) Upon the occurrence of any one or more Events of Default, Landlord
may, at Landlord's option, without any demand or notice whatsoever (except as
expressly required in this Lease):

          (i)   Terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice of
termination, in which event this Lease shall expire and terminate on the date
specified in such notice of termination and all rights of Tenant under this
Lease and in and to the Demised Premises shall terminate. Tenant shall remain
liable for all obligations under this Lease arising up to the date of such
termination, and Tenant shall surrender the Demised Premises to Landlord on the
date specified in such notice; or

          (ii)  Terminate this Lease as provided in Section 22(b)(i) hereof and
recover from Tenant all damages Landlord may incur by reason of Tenant's
default, including, without limitation, an amount which, at the date of such
termination, is calculated as follows: (1) the value of the excess, if any, of
(A) the Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums which would have been
payable hereunder by Tenant for the period commencing with the day following the
date of such termination and ending with the Expiration Date had this Lease not
been terminated (the "Remaining Term"), over (B) the aggregate reasonable rental
value of the Demised Premises for the Remaining Term (which excess, if any shall
be discounted to present value at the "Treasury Yield" as defined below for the
Remaining Term); plus (2) the costs of recovering possession of the Demised
                 ----
Premises and all other expenses actually incurred by Landlord due to Tenant's
default, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees; plus (3) the
                                                                    ----
unpaid Base Rent and Additional Rent earned as of the date of termination plus
any interest and late fees due hereunder, plus other sums of money and damages
owing on the date of termination by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease or in
connection with the Demised Premises. The amount as calculated above shall be
deemed immediately due and payable. The payment of the amount calculated in
subparagraph (ii)(1) shall not be deemed a penalty but shall merely constitute
payment of liquidated damages, it being understood and acknowledged by Landlord
and Tenant that actual damages to Landlord are extremely difficult, if not
impossible, to ascertain. "Treasury Yield" shall mean the rate of return in
percent per annum of Treasury Constant Maturities for the length of time
specified as published in document H. 15(519) (presently published by the Board
of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System titled "Federal Reserve
Statistical Release") for the calendar week immediately preceding the calendar
week in which the termination occurs. If the rate of return of Treasury Constant
Maturities for the calendar week in question is not published on or before the
business day preceding the date of the Treasury Yield in question is to became
effective, then the Treasury Yield shall be based upon the rate of return of
Treasury Constant Maturities for the length of time specified for the most
recent calendar week for which such publication has occurred. If no rate of
return for Treasury Constant Maturities is published for the specific length of
time specified, the Treasury Yield for such length of time shall be the weighted
average of the rates of return of Treasury Constant Maturities most nearly
corresponding to the length of the applicable period specified. If the
publishing of the rate of return of Treasury Constant Maturities is ever
discontinued, then the Treasury Yield shall be based upon the index which is
published by the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System in
replacement thereof or, if no such replacement index is published, the index
which, in Landlord's reasonable determination, most nearly corresponds to the
rate of return of Treasury Constant Maturities. In determining the aggregate
reasonable rental value pursuant to subparagraph (ii)(1)(B) above, the parties
hereby agree that, at the time Landlord seeks to enforce this remedy, all
relevant factors should be considered, including, but not limited to, (a) the
length of time remaining in the Term, (b) the then current market conditions in
the general area in which the Building is located, (c) the likelihood of
reletting the Demised Premises for a period of time equal to the remainder of
the Term, (d) the net effective rental rates then being obtained by landlords
for similar type space of similar size in similar type buildings in the general
area in which the Building is located, (e) the vacancy levels in the general
area in which the Building is located, (f) current levels of new construction
that will be completed during the remainder of the Term and how this
construction will likely affect vacancy rates and rental rates and (g)
inflation; or
                                      -13-
<PAGE>

          (iii) Without terminating this Lease, in its own name but as agent for
Tenant, enter into and upon and take possession of the Demised Premises or any
part thereof. Upon written notice to Tenant and upon process of law, any
property remaining in the Demised Premises may be removed and stored in a
warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account of, Tenant without
Landlord being deemed guilty of trespass or becoming liable for any loss or
damage which may be occasioned thereby unless caused by Landlord's negligence or
misconduct. Thereafter, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, lease to a
third party the Demised Premises or any portion thereof as the agent of Tenant
upon such terms and conditions as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary or
desirable in order to relet the Demised Premises. The remainder of any rentals
received by Landlord from such reletting, after the payment of any indebtedness
due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord, and the payment of any costs and expenses
of such reletting, shall be held by Landlord to the extent of and for
application in payment of future rent owed by Tenant, if any, as the same may
become due and payable hereunder. If such rentals received from such reletting
shall at any time or from time to time be less than sufficient to pay to
Landlord the entire sums then due from Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay any
such deficiency to Landlord. Notwithstanding any such reletting without
termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease
for any such previous default provided same has not been cured; or

          (iv) Without terminating this Lease, and with or without notice to
Tenant, enter into and upon the Demised Premises in a lawful manner and, without
being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages therefor, maintain the
Demised Premises and repair or replace any damage thereto or do anything or make
any payment for which Tenant is responsible hereunder. Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord immediately upon demand for any reasonable expenses which Landlord
incurs in thus effecting Tenant's compliance under this Lease and Landlord shall
not be liable to Tenant for any damages with respect thereto; or

          (v) With or without terminating this Lease, allow the Demised
Premises to remain unoccupied and collect rent from Tenant as it comes due;
provided, however, that nothing contained in this Lease will relieve Landlord of
its obligations under the laws of the State of Illinois to mitigate the damages
which may be suffered by Landlord as a result of an Event of Default or

          (vi) Pursue such other remedies as are available at law or equity.

       (c) If this Lease shall terminate as a result of or while there exists an
Event of Default hereunder, any funds of Tenant held by Landlord may be applied
by Landlord to any damages payable by Tenant (whether provided for herein or by
law) as a result of such termination or default.

       (d) Neither the commencement of any action or proceeding, nor the
settlement thereof, nor entry of judgment thereon shall bar Landlord from
bringing subsequent actions or proceedings from time to time, nor shall the
failure to include in any action or proceeding any sum or sums then due be a bar
to the maintenance of any subsequent actions or proceedings for the recovery of
such sum or sums so omitted.

       (e) No agreement to accept a, surrender of the Demised Premises and no
act or omission by Landlord or Landlords agents during the Term shall constitute
an acceptance or surrender of the Demised Premises unless made in writing and
signed by Landlord. No re-entry or taking possession of the Demised Premises by
Landlord shall constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless
a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. No provision of this
Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by either party unless such waiver is
in writing and signed by the party making such waiver. Landlord's acceptance of
Base Rent or Additional Rent in full or in part following an Event of Default
hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of such Event of Default. No custom
or practice which may grow up between the parties in connection with the terms
of this Lease shall be construed to waive or lessen either party's right to
insist upon strict performance of the terms of this Lease, without a written
notice thereof to the other party.

       (f) If an Event of Default shall occur, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on
demand, all reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord as a result thereof,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and expenses actually
incurred.

   22.1 Landlord Default. If Landlord fails to perform or observe or
        ----------------
otherwise breaches any term of this Lease and such failure shall continue for
more than thirty (30) days after Tenant gives Landlord written notice of such
failure, or, if such failure does not arise out of a failure by Landlord to pay
a sum of money and cannot reasonably be corrected within such 30-day period, if
Landlord does not commence to correct such default within such 30-day period and
thereafter diligently prosecute the correction of same to completion within a
reasonable time, a "Landlord Event of Default" shall exist under this Lease.
Upon the occurrence of a Landlord Event of Default, Tenant may at Tenant's
option, cure the Landlord Event of Default and the actual cost of such cure
shall be payable by Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) calendar days after
written demand; provided, however, that if a failure by Landlord to perform or
observe any term of this Lease gives rise to circumstances or conditions which
constitute an emergency threatening human health or safety or substantial damage
to the Demised Premises or Tenant's personal property, or materially impeding
the conduct of the business of Tenant at the Demised Premises, Tenant shall be
entitled to take immediate curative action (prior to the expiration of any
notice and cure period set forth above) to the extent necessary to eliminate the
emergency. If Landlord does not pay to Tenant the

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

amount of such cost, upon written demand, Tenant may set off such cost against
installments of Base Rent or other amounts due Landlord under this Lease. Such
cost must be reasonably incurred and must not exceed the scope of the Landlord
Event of Default in question, and if such costs are chargeable as a result of
labor or materials provided directly by Tenant, rather than by unrelated third
parties, the costs shall not exceed the amount which would have been charged by
a qualified third party unrelated to Tenant. The quality of all work performed
by Tenant must equal or exceed the quality of Landlord's Work. Such costs must
be reasonably documented and copies of such documentation must be delivered to
Landlord with the written demand for reimbursement. Tenant shall be permitted to
continue to set off against succeeding installments of Base Rent until the total
amount of such cost actually incurred by Tenant has been recovered by Tenant. If
Tenant elects to exercise its right of set-off, as provided in this Section
22.1, such set-off is intended to be the exclusive remedy available to Tenant
with respect to the Landlord Event of Default which gave rise to the set-off.
Accordingly, once Tenant has fully set off all of the permissible cost of curing
the Landlord Event of Default, Landlord shall no longer be deemed to be in
default under this Lease with respect to the Landlord Event of Default that was
the subject of the set off. Nothing contained in this Section 22.1 shall create
or imply the existence of any obligation by Tenant to cure any Landlord Event of
Default.

   23. Landlord's Right of Entry. Tenant agrees to permit Landlord and the
       -------------------------
authorized representatives of Landlord and of Lender to enter upon the Demised
Premises at all reasonable times for the purposes of inspecting the Demised
Premises and Tenant's compliance with this Lease, and making any necessary
repairs thereto; provided that, except in the case of an emergency, Landlord
shall give Tenant reasonable prior notice of Landlord's intended entry upon the
Demised Premises. Nothing herein shall imply any duty upon the part of Landlord
to do any work required of Tenant hereunder, and the performance thereof by
Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default in failing to perform
it. Landlord shall not be liable for inconvenience, annoyance, disturbance or
other damage to Tenant by reason of making such repairs or the performance of
such work in the Demised Premises or on account of bringing materials, supplies
and equipment into or through the Demised Premises during the course thereof,
and the obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall not thereby be affected;
provided, however, that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts not to disturb or
--------  -------
otherwise interfere with Tenant's operations in the Demised Premises in making
such repairs or performing such work. Landlord also shall have the right to
enter the Demised Premises at all reasonable times to exhibit the Demised
Premises to any prospective purchaser, mortgagee or tenant thereof.

   24. Lender's Rights.
       ---------------
       (a) Subject to all the provisions of this Section 24, this Lease may be
either superior or subordinate to any "Mortgage". The term "Mortgage", as used
in this Lease, shall mean any and all mortgages, deeds to secure debt, deeds of
trust, or other instruments creating a lien or conveying a security title at
any time and from time to time, granted by Landlord and affecting or
encumbering the title of Landlord to the Demised Premises or this Lease.
The term "Mortgagee" refers to the holder of the Mortgage. Landlord shall have
no right to grant to any Mortgagee in any Mortgage any rights which, if
exercised, would violate the obligations of Landlord or the rights of Tenant
under this Lease. Landlord hereby warrants to Tenant that, on the Lease Date,
the Demised Premises will not be subject to any Mortgage.

       (b) Unless this Lease is subordinated to a Mortgage pursuant to Section
24(c), this Lease shall be superior to such Mortgage. Upon the request by any
Mortgagee, Tenant shall execute and deliver a written instrument, in a form
acceptable for recording in the real estate records of Will County, Illinois,
recognizing that this Lease is superior to the Mortgage held by the requesting
Mortgagee and that, upon foreclosure of or exercise of the power of sale
contained in the Mortgage, Tenant shall recognize and attorn to the purchaser at
the foreclosure sale as the Landlord under this Lease, subject to all the terms
and provisions of this Lease. If a Mortgage is subordinate to this Lease, any
person who becomes the holder of the interest of the Landlord by virtue of
foreclosure of the Mortgage shall be subject to and bound by all the provisions
of this Lease.

       (c) Landlord hereby warrants and represents to Tenant that, as of the
Lease Date, there will be no Mortgage encumbering the Demised Premises. If any
future Mortgagee desires for this Lease to be subordinate to its Mortgage,
Tenant agrees that it shall subordinate this Lease by execution and delivery of
a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement in the form attached
to this Lease as Exhibit "D" and by this reference made a part hereof in
recordable form; provided, however, that to be effective such Agreement must be
fully executed and delivered by all parties thereto.

   25. Estoppel Certificate. Landlord and Tenant agree, at any time, and from
       --------------------
time to time, within fifteen (15) days after written request of the other, to
execute, acknowledge and deliver a statement in writing in recordable form to
the requesting party and/or its designee certifying that: (i) this Lease is
unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications,
that the same is in full force and effect, as modified), (ii) the dates to which
Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges have been paid, (iii) whether or
not, to the best of its knowledge, there exists any failure by the requesting
party to perform any term, covenant or condition contained in this Lease, and,
if so, specifying each such failure, (iv) (if such be the case) Tenant has
unconditionally accepted the Demised Premises and is conducting its business
therein, and (v) and as to such additional matters as may be requested, it being
intended that any
                                      -15-
<PAGE>

such statement delivered pursuant hereto may be relied upon by the requesting
party and by any purchaser of title to the Demised Premises or by any mortgagee
or any assignee thereof or any party to any sale-leaseback of the Demised
Premises, or the landlord under a ground lease affecting the Demised Premises.

   26. Landlord Liability. No owner of the Demised Premises, whether or not
       ------------------
named herein, shall have liability hereunder after it ceases to hold title to
the Demised Premises. Neither Landlord nor any officer, director, shareholder,
partner or principal of Landlord, whether disclosed or undisclosed, shall be
under any personal liability with respect to any of the provisions of this
Lease. In the event Landlord is in breach or default with respect to Landlord's
obligations or otherwise under this Lease, Tenant shall look solely to the
equity of Landlord in the Building for the satisfaction of Tenant's remedies. It
is expressly understood and agreed that Landlord's liability under the terms,
covenants, conditions, warranties and obligations of this Lease shall in no
event exceed the loss of Landlord's equity interest in the Building. Landlord
hereby warrants to Tenant that, as of the Lease Date, the Demised Premises are
not subject to a Mortgage and that Landlord will not, prior to the occurrence of
Substantial Completion, grant a Mortgage encumbering the Demised Premises.
Nothing in this Section 26 will create or imply any restriction on the right of
Landlord to grant Mortgages after the occurrence of Substantial Completion.

   26.1 If Landlord fails to observe and perform its obligations under Section
17 of this Lease with respect to the design, construction and delivery of the
Demised Premises and the attainment of Substantial Completion of the Demised
Premises, and such failure becomes a Landlord Event of Default, Tenant shall
have the right, in addition to the rights otherwise available to Tenant as a
result of the occurrence of a Landlord Event of Default, to file an action
against Landlord in any court in the state of Illinois having jurisdiction
seeking to compel specific performance by Landlord of such obligations. Any
judgment obtained by Tenant enforcing specific performance of such obligations
may be enforced against Landlord without regard for the limitations otherwise
applicable under Section 26. Any judgment for damages, however, even if arising
out of the same cause of action, will continue to be subject to the limitations
imposed by Section 26. This Section 26.1 shall automatically terminate upon the
occurrence of Substantial Completion of the Demised Premises in accordance with
Section 17.

   27. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given or served by either
       -------
party to this Lease shall be deemed given when made in writing, and either (i)
personally delivered, (ii) deposited with the United States Postal Service,
postage prepaid, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or
(iii) delivered by licensed overnight delivery service providing proof of
delivery, properly addressed to the address set forth in Section 1(m) (as the
same may be changed by giving written notice of the aforesaid in accordance with
this Section 27). If any notice mailed is properly addressed with appropriate
postage but returned for any reason, such notice shall be deemed to be effective
notice and to be given on the date of mailing.

   28. Brokers. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that, except for
       -------
those parties set forth in Section 1(o) (the "Brokers"), Tenant has not engaged
or had any conversations or negotiations with any broker, finder or other third
party concerning the leasing of the Demised Premises to Tenant who would be
entitled to any commission or fee based on the execution of this Lease. Landlord
acknowledges and agrees that Landlord is obligated to pay the Brokers any
commission due Brokers in connection with this Lease pursuant to a separate
agreement between Landlord and Brokers. Tenant hereby further represents and
warrants to Landlord that Tenant is not receiving and is not entitled to receive
any rebate, payment or other remuneration either directly or indirectly, from
the Brokers, and that it is not otherwise sharing in or entitled to share in any
commission or fee paid to the Brokers by Landlord or any other party in
connection with the execution of this Lease, either directly or indirectly.
Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord against and from any claims for any brokerage
commissions (except those payable to the Brokers, all of which are payable by
Landlord pursuant to a separate agreement) and all costs, expenses and
liabilities in connection therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, for any breach of the foregoing. Landlord hereby
indemnifies Tenant against and from any claims for any brokerage commissions,
including those payable to the Brokers, claimed or asserted by persons claiming
through or under Landlord, and all costs, expenses and liabilities in connection
therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses. The foregoing indemnifications shall survive the termination of this
Lease for any reason.

   29. Assignment and Subleasing.
       -------------------------

       (a) Tenant may not assign, mortgage, pledge, encumber or otherwise
transfer this Lease, or any interest hereunder, or sublet the Demised Premises,
in whole or in part, without on each occasion first obtaining the prior express
written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned. In making a determination to grant or withhold such
consent, Landlord shall be entitled to consider the creditworthiness of the
proposed assignee or sublessee, the nature of the use of the Demised Premises
contemplated by the proposed assignee or sublessee (to the extent such use
amends or alters the Permitted Use then in effect) and whether or not the
proposed use will materially increase wear and tear on the Demised Premises.
Landlord shall never be required to consent to any proposed use involving heavy
manufacturing or chemical processing. In addition, if the intended use by the
proposed assignee or sublessee involves in any way materially different amounts
or types of Hazardous Substances than the Hazardous Substances then being used
or stored by Tenant at the Demised Premises, in accordance with Section 16 of
this Lease, at the time of the proposed assignment or sublease, and if such
materially different or additional Hazardous Substances create, in the
reasonable

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

judgment of Landlord a materially increased risk of Contamination at the
Demised Premises. Landlord shall be unconditionally entitled to withhold
consent of the proposed assignment or sublease in its absolute discretion.
Permitted subtenants or assignees shall become liable directly to Landlord for
all obligations of Tenant hereunder, without, however, relieving Tenant of any
of its liability hereunder unless agreed upon by the parties hereto in writing.
No such assignment, subletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed the
acceptance of the assignee, tenant or occupant, as Tenant, or a release of
Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of Tenant's obligations under this
Lease unless agreed upon by the parties hereto in writing.

       (b)  Notwithstanding subsections (a), (c), (d), (e) or (g) of this
Section 29, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is then
continuing, Tenant shall have the right, upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Landlord, (i) to sublet all or part of the Demised Premises to any
entity which is controlled by, under common control with, or which controls
Tenant (any of such entities being herein called a "Mohawk Affiliate"); or (ii)
to assign this Lease (x) to a Mohawk Affiliate or to (y) a successor corporation
into which or with which Tenant is merged or consolidated or which acquired
substantially all of Tenant's assets and property, provided that, with respect
to an assignment pursuant to (ii)(y), such successor corporation assumes
substantially all of the obligations and liabilities of Tenant and, after such
merger, shall have total assets and stockholder equity at least equal to the
total assets and stockholder equity of Tenant immediately prior to the merger,
as determined by generally accepted accounting principles. With respect to any
assignment, Tenant shall provide in its notice to Landlord such information as
may be reasonably required by Landlord to determine that the requirements of
this subsection (b) have been satisfied. The terms "controls", "controlled by"
or "under common control with", as used in this subsection (b), shall mean the
ownership of a direct or indirect majority interest.

       (c)  If Tenant should desire to assign this Lease or sublet the Demised
Premises (or any part thereof), Tenant shall give Landlord written notice no
later than thirty (30) days in advance of the proposed effective date of any
proposed assignment or sublease, specifying (i) the name and business of the
proposed assignee or sublessee, (ii) a detailed description of the intended use
of the Demised Premises by the proposed assignee or sublessee, with particular
detail regarding any Hazardous Substances which will be used in any manner at
the Demised Premises; (iii) the amount and location of the space within the
Demised Premises proposed to be so subleased, (iv) the proposed effective date
and duration of the assignment or subletting, and (v) the proposed rent or
consideration to be paid to Tenant by such assignee or sublessee. Tenant shall
promptly supply Landlord with financial statements and other information as
Landlord may reasonably request to evaluate the proposed assignment or
sublease.

       (d)  Landlord shall have a period of fifteen (15) days following receipt
of such notice and other information requested by Landlord within which to
notify Tenant in writing that Landlord elects: (i) to permit Tenant to assign or
sublet such space; or (ii) to refuse to consent to Tenant's assignment or
subleasing of such space and to continue this Lease in full force and effect as
to the entire Demised Premises, any such refusal shall state with reasonable
specificity the reasons for the refusal. If Landlord should fail to notify
Tenant in writing of such election within the aforesaid fifteen (15) day period.
Landlord shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment or sublease.
Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for reasonable legal fees and any other
reasonable costs actually incurred by Landlord in connection with any requested
assignment or subletting (but in no event more than $1,000.00 per request).
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all documents executed in connection
with any permitted assignment or subletting, which documents shall be in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and which shall require such
assignee to assume performance of all terms of this Lease on Tenant's part to be
performed. No acceptance by Landlord of any rent or any other sum of money from
any assignee, sublessee or other category of transferee shall be deemed to
constitute Landlord's consent to any assignment, sublease, or transfer.

       (e)  Any attempted assignment or sublease by Tenant in violation of the
terms and provisions of this Section 29 shall be void and such act shall
constitute a material breach of this Lease. In no event shall any assignment,
subletting or transfer, whether or not with Landlord's consent, relieve Tenant
of its primary liability under this Lease for the entire Term, and Tenant shall
in no way be released from the full and complete performance of all the terms
hereof unless otherwise agreed by the parties hereto in writing. If Landlord
takes possession of the Demised Premises before the expiration of the Term of
this Lease due to an Event of Default by Tenant, Landlord shall have the right,
at its option to take over any sublease of the Demised Premises or any portion
thereof and such subtenant shall attorn to Landlord, as its landlord, under all
the terms and obligations of such sublease occurring from and after such date,
but excluding previous acts, omissions, negligence or defaults of Tenant and any
repair or obligation in excess of available net insurance proceeds or
condemnation award.

       (f)  Landlord shall have the right to sell, transfer, assign, pledge, and
convey all or any part of the Demised Premises and any and all of Landlord's
rights under this Lease. In the event Landlord assigns or otherwise conveys its
rights under this Lease, Landlord shall be entirely freed and released from any
obligations accruing thereafter under this Lease, and Tenant agrees to look
solely to Landlord's successor in interest for performance of such obligations.

       (g)  If Tenant transfers or assigns this Lease or sublets the Demised
Premises in whole or in part to any permitted assignee or sublessee, Landlord
shall be entitled to receive, as Additional Rent, one hundred percent (100%) of
any "Rental Profit" (as hereinafter defined) received by Tenant. The

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

term "Rental Profit" shall mean the amount calculated on a per square foot basis
and not on an aggregate or cumulative basis, by which (i) the total rental and
other consideration of any nature whatsoever and however characterized paid or
delivered to Tenant (but expressly excluding any amounts ultimately payable
under the terms of this Lease to third parties, including without limitation,
Real Estate Taxes, utility costs and maintenance expenses) by an assignee of the
interest of Tenant or sublessee of all or any part of the Demised Premises, for
the purpose of compensating Tenant directly or indirectly for the assignment or
sublease, exceeds (ii) the Monthly Base Rent Installments paid by Tenant to
Landlord pursuant to this Lease, provided, however, that Landlord shall not be
entitled to receive any Rental Profit until Tenant has received an amount of
Rental Profit equal to the sum of (x) the actual, out-of-pocket cost of
leasehold improvements installed by Tenant at its expense specifically for and
as an inducement to the assignee or sublessee (subject to the limitation
hereinafter specified), plus (y) any other reasonable, documented expenses
actually paid by Tenant to a third party or reasonably incurred by Tenant in
connection with the assignment of subleting, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and brokerage commissions (but expressly
excluding any overhead or other internally charged expenses of Tenant, or any
amounts paid for tenant improvements, free rent or other lease concessions given
as an inducement to the assignee or sublessee which materially exceed in the
aggregate the tenant improvements, free rent or other lease concessions given in
aggregate on the basis of then prevailing market conditions for a comparable
sublease or assignment) (the sum of (x) and (y) shall collectively constitute
"Rental Expenses"). By way of example, if Landlord grants the required written
consent to a sublease by Tenant of 10,000 square feet of the Demised Premises
and the total rental and other consideration received by Tenant for the sublease
equals a per annum rate of $3.98 per square foot and the per annum rate per
square foot for the Annual Base Rent then payable by Tenant is $3.78 per square
foot, the Rental Profit would be 20 cents per square foot and Landlord would be
entitled to received 100% of such Rental Profit concurrently with receipt of
each payment by the sublessee to Tenant, provided that Rental Profit would be
retained by Tenant until Tenant had fully recovered the amount of its Rental
Expenses. Landlord shall be entitled to receive payment of its share of Rental
Profit as and when payments are received by Tenant.

   30. Termination or Expiration.
       --------------------------

       (a) No termination of this Lease prior to the normal ending thereof, by
lapse of time or otherwise, shall affect Landlord's right to collect rent for
the period prior to termination thereof.

       (b)  At the expiration of earlier termination of the Term of this Lease,
Tenant shall surrender the Demised Premises and all improvements, alterations
and additions thereto, and keys therefor to Landlord, clean and neat, and in
the same condition as at the Lease Commitment Date, excepting normal wear and
tear, condemnation and casualty other than that required to be insured against
by Tenant hereunder.

       (c) If Tenant remains in possession of the Demised Premises after
expiration of the Term, without Landlord's acquiescence and without any express
agreement of the parties, Tenant shall be a tenant-at-sufferance at the greater
of (i) one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the then current fair market base
rental value of the Demised Premises or (ii) one hundred fifty percent (150%) of
the Base Rent in effect at the end of the Term. Tenant shall also continue to
pay all other Additional Rent due hereunder, and there shall be no renewal of
this Lease by operation of law. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall be
liable for all damages, direct and consequential, incurred by Landlord as a
result of such holdover. No receipt of money by Landlord from Tenant after the
termination of this Lease or Tenant's right of possession of the Demised
Premises shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term or Tenant's right of
possession.

       -------------
Base Rent, or Additional Rent or other sums due hereunder, if any, is not paid
(i) within five (5) days after Tenant's receipt of written notice of such
failure to pay on the first occasion during any twelve (12) month period, or
(ii) as and when due with respect to any subsequent late payments in any twelve
(12) month period, Tenant shall pay an administrative fee equal to five percent
(5%) of such past due amount, plus interest on the amount past due at the lesser
of (i) the maximum interest rate allowed by law or (ii) a rate of fifteen
percent (15%) per annum (the "Interest Rate") to defray the additional expenses
incurred by Landlord in processing such payment.

       ---------------------
regulations set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto, as well as other rules and
                         ---------

                            Prevailing Market Rate

    For purposes of this Lease, the phrase "Prevailing Market Rate" shall mean
the prevailing market rate as of the first day of the First Renewal Term or as
of the first day of the Second Renewal Term, as applicable, for base minimum
rental calculated on a per square foot basis for leases covering space
comparable to the Demised Premises within buildings comparable to the Building
located in the I-55 Corridor Area within Will County, Illinois, including the
Villages of Lemont, Woodridge, Bolingbrook & Romeoville, market area
(hereinafter referred to as the "Market Area").

    The Prevailing Market Rate shall be determined by an appraisal procedure
as follows:

    In the event that Tenant notifies Landlord that Tenant elects to extend the
Term for either or both of the First Renewal Term and the Second Renewal Term in
accordance with Section 3.1 of this Lease. Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate
in good faith for a period of thirty (30) calendar days after the giving of the
applicable written notice from Tenant to reach mutual agreement regarding the
Prevailing Market Rate. Each of Landlord and Tenant shall submit to the other
during such thirty (30) day period at least one written proposal for the
Prevailing Market Rate. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to reach agreement
during the thirty (30) day period, each of Landlord and Tenant shall, by written
notice to the other within ten (10) business days after expiration of the thirty
(30) day period, select a real estate appraiser. For a period of ten (10)
business days after designation of the second appraiser, the two appraisers so
designated shall attempt to reach mutual agreement regarding the Prevailing
Market Rate. The appraisers must give appropriate consideration to all economic
terms, length of lease term, size, location and quality of premises being leased
and other generally acceptable terms and conditions for the lease of the
building in question.

    If the two appraisers are unable to reach agreement, each of the two
appraisers shall, not later than the twentieth (20th) business day following the
designation of the second appraiser, render a separate written determination
of the Prevailing Market Rate. The two appraisers shall also select a third
appraiser prior to the end of the period when their separate appraisals must be
rendered. Within twenty (20) business days after the appointment of the third
appraiser, the third appraiser shall render a written determination of the
Prevailing Market Rate. From the three appraisals, the appraisal which is the
farthest from the median appraisal shall be disregarded and the average of the
remaining two appraisals shall conclusively constitute the Prevailing Market
Rate. All appraisers selected in accordance with this paragraph shall have at
least ten years experience in the commercial leasing market in the Market Area
and shall be members of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers or
similar professional organization. If either Landlord or Tenant fails or refuses
to select an appraiser, the other appraiser shall alone determine the Prevailing
Market Rate. Landlord and Tenant agree that they shall be bound by the
determination of Prevailing Market Rate pursuant to this paragraph. Landlord
shall bear the fee and expenses of its appraiser; Tenant shall bear the fee and
expense of its appraiser; and Landlord and Tenant shall share equally the fee
and expenses of the third appraiser, if any.

to the interest of Landlord by foreclosure, deed in lieu thereof or otherwise,
that: (a) the Lease shall, in accordance with its terms, remain in full force
and effect as a direct lease between Mortgagee or other New Landlord (as the
case may be), and Tenant, with the same force and effect as if originally
entered into with Mortgagee, or such other New Landlord (as the case may be);
and (b) Tenant's possession of the Premises and Tenant's rights and privileges
under the Lease shall not be diminished, interfered with or disturbed by such
Mortgagee or such other New Landlord by such foreclosure under the Mortgage or
by any such attempt to foreclose or to succeed to the interests of Landlord by
foreclosure, deed in lieu thereof or otherwise; provided that the rights of
possession of Tenant are subject to all the terms of the Lease.

        4.  Without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, Landlord will have
no right or power to (a) enter into any agreement amending or terminating the
Lease or (b) cancel the term of, or surrender, the Lease, or (c) waive or
release Tenant from any obligation of Tenant under the Lease; provided that
regarding only any proposed amendment of the Lease which does not reduce the
amount of rental payable under the Lease by Tenant, relieve Tenant of any
material obligation under the Lease, materially increase the responsibilities of
Landlord or otherwise materially impair or reduce the economic value of the
Lease to Mortgagee, Mortgagee agrees not unreasonably to withhold or delay its
consent. Mortgagee shall approve or disapprove of such actions within thirty
(30) days of request thereof, and if

                                      d-1
<PAGE>

notice of disapproval is not received within said time deadline. Mortgagee is
deemed to have approved thereof. If Mortgagee disapproves same, it shall state
with specificity the reasons for such disapproval.

        5.  The Tenant hereby agrees to provide Mortgagee with a copy of any
written notice given by Tenant to Landlord of any default under the Lease by the
Landlord (such copy to Mortgagee to be given simultaneously with the giving of
the notice to Landlord) and to allow Mortgagee the same right and opportunity to
remedy or cure such default as may be available to Landlord under the Lease
prior to exercising any right or remedy of the Tenant under the Lease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant agrees that Mortgagee shall have no
obligation to remedy or cure any such default.

        6.  In the event that Mortgagee or any other New Landlord shall succeed
to the interest of Landlord under the Lease, Tenant agrees that Mortgagee or
such other New Landlord shall not be: (i) subject to any credits, offsets
(except as may be expressly provided to the contrary in the Lease), defenses,
claims or counterclaims which Tenant might have against any prior landlord
(including Landlord) (ii) bound by any rent or additional rent which Tenant
shall have paid more than one month in advance to any prior landlord (including
Landlord), or (iii) bound by any amendment or modification to the Lease, after
the effective date hereof, or waiver of any provision of the Lease, which has
not been consented to in writing by Mortgagee or deemed approved hereunder.

        7.  Each notice, demand or other communication in connection with this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be given to and served upon
the addressee thereof on the earlier of (i) actual delivery to such addressee at
its address set out above or (ii) the third business day after the deposit
thereof in the United States mails, registered or certified mail, return receipt
requested, first-class postage prepaid, addressed to such addressee at its
address set out above. By notice complying with this section, any party may
from time to time designate a different address in the continental United
States as its address for the purpose of the receipt of notice hereunder.

        8.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns.

        9.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in
accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois.

                                   EXHIBIT G

   The following Special Stipulations are hereby incorporated into and made a
part of the foregoing Lease ("this Lease") and, to the extent of any conflict
between these Special Stipulations and all other provisions of this Lease, these
Special Stipulations shall govern and control.

1.  Right of First Offer. So long as this Lease is in full force and effect and
    ---------------------
no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, and no facts or
circumstances then exist which, with the giving of notice or the passage of
time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default. Landlord hereby grants to
Tenant a right of first offer (the "Right of First Offer") to expand the Demised
Premises to include any space in the Building which directly adjoins the Demised
Premises and becomes vacant from time to time (the "Offer Space"), subject to
the following terms and conditions. The term "directly adjoins", as used in the
preceding sentence, shall mean space which actually adjoins the Demised
Premises. By way of example, the Demised Premises contains approximately 201,850
square feet, located at one end of the Building, leaving approximately 150,488
square feet in the remainder of the Building. Assuming, for the purposes of this
example only, that no other tenants occupied any other portion of the Building,
a lease by Landlord of approximately 10,000 square feet at the opposite end of
the Building from the Demised Premises (thereby leaving approximately 10,000
square feet of space directly adjoining the Demised Premises) would not be
subject to the Right of First Offer and would not constitute Offer Space.

    (a) The term of the Right of First Offer shall commence on the Lease
Commencement Date and continue throughout the initial Term (the "First Offer
Period").

    (b) Subject to the other terms of this Right of First Offer, after any part
of the Offer Space has or will "become available" (as defined herein) for
leasing by the Landlord, Landlord shall not, during the term of the Right of
First Offer, lease to another tenant such available portion of the Offer Space
(the "Available Offer Space") without first offering Tenant the right to lease
such Available Offer Space, subject to the following conditions:

        (i)   Space shall be deemed to "become available" when Landlord desires
to offer vacant space in the Building for lease or a lease for any tenant in the
Building from time to time of all or a portion of the Offer Space expires or is
otherwise terminated.

        (ii)  Notwithstanding item (i) of this subparagraph b, Offer Space shall
not be deemed to "become available" if the space is assigned or subleased by the
then-current tenant of the space; or re-let by the then-current tenant of the
space by renewal, extension, or renegotiation.

    (c)  Consistent with subparagraph b. above, Landlord shall not lease any
Available Offer Space to another tenant unless and until Landlord has first
offered the Available Offer Space to Tenant in writing (the "Offer"). The Offer
shall contain (i) a description of the Available Offer Space (which description
shall include the square footage amount and location of such Available Offer
Space) and an attached floor plan that will show the Available Offer Space; (ii)
the date on which Landlord expects the Available Offer Space to become
available; (iii) the increase in the Base Rent which would occur upon
incorporating the Available Offer Space into this Lease; and (iv) the increase
in Tenant's Operating Expense Percentage which would occur upon incorporating
the Available Offer Space into this Lease. Upon receipt of the Offer, Tenant
shall have the right, for a period of ten (10) calendar days after receipt of
the Offer, to exercise the Right of First Offer by giving Landlord written
notice that Tenant desires to lease the Offer Space at the base rent and upon
the special terms and conditions as are contained in the Offer. If the term of
the Offer Space expires after the Expiration Date of the Term, the Term of this
Lease shall be extended to be coterminous with the term of the Offer Space and
the Annual Base Rent per square foot for the Demised Premises during said
extension shall be based upon the greater of (i) the base rent per square foot
for the Offer Space or (ii) the Annual Base Rent per square foot of the Demised
Premises for the last year of the Term.

    (d)  If, within such ten (10)-day period, Tenant exercises the Right of
First Offer, then Landlord and Tenant shall amend the Lease to include the Offer
Space so that the Offer Space shall thereafter be governed by the terms and
conditions of this Lease as modified by the terms and conditions of the Offer.

    (e)  If, within such ten (10)-day period, Tenant declines or fails to
exercise the Right of First Offer, Landlord shall then have the right to lease
the Offer Space in portions or in its entirety to a third party, unrelated to
and unaffiliated with Landlord, at any time without regard to the restrictions
in this Right of First Offer and on whatever terms and conditions Landlord may
decide in its sole discretion, provided the base rent, additional rent, any
monetary allowances and any rent concessions are not substantially more
favorable to such tenant than those set forth in the Offer, without again
complying with all the provisions of this Right of First Offer. Any base rent
which is at least ninety percent (90%) of the base rent specified in the Offer
will conclusively be deemed to be as favorable as the base rent specified in the
Offer.

                                      g-1
<PAGE>

     (f)  If Landlord desires to lease the Offer Space at a base rent
substantially less than the base rent set forth in the Offer, or if Landlord
desires to materially alter or modify the special terms and conditions of the
Offer, if any, Landlord shall be required to present the altered or modified
Offer to Tenant pursuant to this Right of First Offer, in the same manner that
the original Offer was submitted to Tenant.

     (g)  With respect to any portion of the Building which is leased from time
to time during the Term (subject to compliance by Landlord with this Special
Stipulation 1) and which, if vacant, would constitute Offer Space, this Right of
First Offer shall be subordinate to any extension or renewal options contained
in any such lease. Further, if at the end of the term of any such lease, the
tenant thereunder desires to remain in its space, Landlord shall be entitled to
renew the lease and this Right of First Offer shall be subject and subordinate
to such renewal.

     (h)  This Right of First Offer is personal to ALADDIN MANUFACTURING
CORPORATION, and shall become null and void upon the occurrence of an assignment
of the Lease or a sublet of all or a part of the Demised Premises.

                                      g-2
