the premises in common with others, (b) common walkways necessary for access to
the Building, and (c) if the Premises include less than the entire rentable area
of any floor, the common toilets and other common facilities of such floor; and
no other appurtenant rights or easements.

      (c) LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO REQUIRE TENANT TO LEASE ADDITIONAL PREMISES. At
Landlord's sole election, Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to
lease the Additional Premises, as hereinafter defined. The "Additional Premises"
are an area adjacent to the

                                      -1-
<PAGE>

Remainder Premises, containing 140 rentable square feet, and are substantially
as shown on Exhibit A. Landlord may exercise its right to require Tenant to
lease the Additional Premises by giving Tenant at least thirty (30) days written
notice ("Put Notice") at any time during the term of the Lease. Tenant's demise
of the Additional Premises shall be upon all of the same terms and conditions of
the Lease applicable to the Remainder Premises, except:

      (1) The Commencement Date in respect of the Additional Premises shall be
the date set forth in the Put Notice.

      (2) The Base Rent payable in respect of the Additional Premises shall be
$2,520.00 per annum (i.e. $210.00 per month) during the period commencing as of
the Commencement Date in respect of the Additional Premises and ending as
February 28, 2006, and $2,590.08 per annum (i.e. $215.84 per month) during the
period commencing as March 1, 2006 and ending as of February 28, 2007.

      (3) Tenant's Proportionate Share in respect of the Additional Premises
shall be .08%.

      (4) Tenant shall lease the Additional Premises in its "as-is" condition,
without any obligation on the part of Landlord to prepare or construct the
Additional Premises for Tenant's occupancy and without any warranty or
representation by Landlord as to the condition of the Additional Premises,
except that: (i) the Additional Premises shall be delivered to Tenant free and
clear of all personal property and free and clear of all tenants and occupants,
and (ii) Landlord shall, at Landlord's cost and expense: (x) install a Building
standard interior door connecting the Additional Premises to the Remainder
Premises, and (y) remove all demising walls which are interior to Additional
Premises, and (z) install a Building standard demising wall separating the
Additional Premises from the adjacent tenant space and common area.

      Upon the giving of the Put Notice, Tenant shall lease the Additional
Premises from Landlord, and Landlord shall demise the Additional Premises to
Tenant, without the need for further act or deed from either party; however, at
Landlord's election, the parties shall execute a written agreement confirming
the demise of the Additional Premises to Tenant.

      3. TENDER OF POSSESSION. Since Tenant is presently occupying the Premises
as a subtenant, Tenant shall take the Premises in "as-is" condition on the
Commencement Date without any obligation on the party of Landlord to prepare or
construct the Premises for Tenant's occupancy and without any representation or
warranty by Landlord to Tenant as to the condition of the Premises or the
Building, except that Landlord shall, at Landlord's cost, perform the work
("Landlord's Work") listed on Exhibit D hereto.

      4. RENT. Tenant shall timely pay to Landlord Rent (as defined in the Basic
Lease Information), including the amounts set forth in Exhibit C hereto, without
notice, demand, deduction or set-off (except as otherwise expressly provided
herein), by good and sufficient check drawn on a national banking association at
Landlord's address provided for in this Lease or as otherwise specified by
Landlord and shall be accompanied by all applicable state and local sales or use
taxes, if applicable. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the
foregoing covenants of Tenant are independent covenants and Tenant shall have no
right to withhold or

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

abate any payment of Base Rent, Tenant's Annual Electricity Charge, Additional
Rent, Taxes, Insurance or other payment, or to set off any amount against the
Base Rent, Tenant's Annual Electricity Charge, Additional Rent, Taxes, Insurance
or other payment then due and payable, or to terminate this Lease, because of
any breach or alleged breach by Landlord of this Lease or because of the
condition of the Premises. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that it has
been represented by counsel of its choice and has participated fully in the
negotiation of this Lease, that Tenant understands that the remedies available
to Tenant in the event of a default by Landlord may be more limited than those
that would otherwise be available to Tenant under the common law in the absence
of certain provisions of this Lease, and that the so-called "dependent
covenants" rule as developed under the common law (including, without
limitation, the statement of such rule as set forth in the Restatement (Second)
of Property, Section 7.1) shall not apply to this Lease or to the relationship
of landlord and tenant created hereunder.

      Base Rent, adjusted as herein provided, and Tenant's Annual Electricity
Charge shall be payable monthly in advance. The first (1st) monthly installment
of Base Rent and Tenant's Annual Electricity Charge shall be payable
contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease; thereafter, Base Rent and
Tenant's Annual Electricity Charge shall be payable on the first (1st) day of
each month beginning on the first (1st) day of the second (2nd) full calendar
month of the Term. The monthly Base Rent and Tenant's Annual Electricity Charge
for any partial month at the beginning of the Term shall equal the product of
1/365 (or in the event of a leap year, 1/366) of the annual Base Rent and
Tenant's Annual Electricity Charge in effect during the partial month and the
number of days in the partial month, and shall be due on the Commencement Date.
Payments of Base Rent and Tenant's Annual Electricity Charge for any fractional
calendar month at the end of the Term shall be similarly prorated. Tenant shall
pay Tenant's Annual Electricity Charge Additional Rent, Taxes and Insurance
(each as defined in Exhibit C) at the same time and in the same manner as Base
Rent.

      5. DELINQUENT PAYMENT; HANDLING CHARGES. All past due payments required of
Tenant hereunder shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the lesser
of fifteen percent (15%) per annum or the maximum lawful rate of interest (such
lesser amount is referred to herein as the "DEFAULT RATE"); additionally,
Landlord, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, may
charge Tenant a fee equal to four percent (4%) of the delinquent payment to
reimburse Landlord for its cost and inconvenience incurred as a consequence of
Tenant's delinquency. In no event, however, shall the charges permitted under
this Section 5 or elsewhere in this Lease, to the extent they are considered to
be interest under applicable Law, exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the late fee and interest referenced above shall
not be charged with respect to the first occurrence (but not any subsequent
occurrence) during any twelve-month period that Tenant fails to make payment
when due, until five (5) days after Landlord delivers written notice of such
delinquency to Tenant.

      6. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Security Deposit (as defined in the Basic Lease
Information), which shall be held by Landlord to secure Tenant's performance of
its obligations under this Lease. The Security Deposit is not an advance payment
of Rent or a measure or limit of Landlord's damages upon an Event of Default (as
defined in Section 17). Landlord may, at Landlord's discretion, from time to
time following an Event of Default and without prejudice to any other remedy,
use

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

all or a part of the Security Deposit to perform any obligation Tenant fails to
perform hereunder or in connection with Landlord's remedies under this Lease.
Following any such application of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the Security
Deposit to its original amount. Subject to the requirements of, and conditions
imposed by, Laws applicable to security deposits under commercial leases,
Landlord shall, within the time required by applicable Law, return to Tenant the
portion of the Security Deposit remaining after deducting all damages, charges
and other amounts permitted by Law. Landlord and Tenant agree that such
deductions shall include, without limitation, all damages and losses that
Landlord has suffered as a result of any breach of this Lease by Tenant. Unless
required otherwise by applicable Law, the Security Deposit may be commingled
with other funds, and no interest shall be paid thereon. If Landlord transfers
its interest in the Premises, Landlord may assign the Security Deposit to the
transferee and, upon such transfer (and the delivery to Tenant of an
acknowledgement by the transferee of the transferee's responsibility for the
Security Deposit), Landlord thereafter shall have no further liability for the
return of the Security Deposit.

      The Security Deposit shall be in the form of a letter of credit and Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord within five (5) days after the date of execution of
the Lease an irrevocable, unconditional letter of credit in the amount of
Thirty-Five Thousand One Hundred Ninety-Nine and 00/100 ($35,199.00) Dollars
(the "LETTER OF CREDIT"). The Letter of Credit shall be addressed to Landlord,
issued in a form and substance similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit I and
by a financial institution with minimum assets of Ten Billion Dollars
($10,000,000,000.00), upon which presentment may be made in Boston,
Massachusetts which is reasonably acceptable to Landlord, shall be freely
transferable without fee, and having an expiration date falling no sooner than
three (3) years and thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date. Tenant agrees
that upon any Event of Default by Tenant under the terms and provisions of this
Lease, Landlord shall have the right to receive payment under any Letter of
Credit of the entire amount of such Letter of Credit at such time, and any such
amounts received by Landlord shall be held by Landlord and applied in accordance
with this Lease in the same manner as a Security Deposit. Landlord shall at all
times during the Term, hold a letter of credit in the amounts described above.

      7. SERVICES; UTILITIES; COMMON AREAS

            (a) SERVICES. Landlord shall furnish to Tenant, to at least the same
level of services as Landlord is presently providing to the Building: (i) water
at those points of supply provided for general use of tenants of the Building;
(ii) subject to Section 7(d), heated and refrigerated air conditioning as
appropriate for comfortable occupancy of the Premises; (iii)janitorial service
to the Premises on weekdays, other than Holidays, for Building-standard
installations and such window washing as may from time to time be reasonably
required; (iv)elevators for ingress and egress to the floor on which the
Premises are located, in common with other tenants, provided that Landlord may
limit the number of operating elevators at times other than Normal Business
Hours, during repairs, and Holidays; (v) replacement of Building-standard light
bulbs and fluorescent tubes, provided that Landlord's standard charge for such
bulbs and tubes shall be paid by Tenant (such charges to be based upon
Landlord's actual cost of replacing

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

such bulbs and tubes without mark-up); and (vi) electrical current during Normal
Business Hours for equipment whose electrical energy consumption does not exceed
normal office usage. If Tenant desires any of the services specified in Section
7(a)(ii) at a time other than Normal Business Hours, then such services shall be
supplied to Tenant upon the written request of Tenant delivered to Landlord
before 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day preceding such extra usage, and Tenant
shall pay to Landlord the cost of such services within thirty (30) days after
Landlord has delivered to Tenant an invoice therefor. The costs incurred by
Landlord in providing HVAC service to Tenant at a time other than Normal
Business Hours, shall include costs for electricity, water, sewage, water
treatment, labor, metering, filtering, and maintenance reasonably allocated by
Landlord to providing such service.

            (b) EXCESS UTILITY USE. Landlord shall not be required to furnish
electrical current for equipment whose electrical energy consumption exceeds
normal office usage. If Tenant's requirements for or consumption of electricity
exceed the electricity to be provided by Landlord as described in Section 7(a),
Landlord shall, at Tenant's expense, make reasonable efforts to supply such
service through the then-existing feeders and risers and electrical panels
serving the Building and the Premises, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost
of such service within thirty (30) days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant
an invoice therefor. Landlord may determine the amount of such additional
consumption and potential consumption by any verifiable method, including
installation of a separate meter in the Premises installed, maintained, and read
by Landlord, at Tenant's expense. Tenant shall not install any electrical
equipment requiring special wiring or requiring voltage in excess of 110 volts
unless approved in advance by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Tenant shall not install any electrical equipment requiring voltage in
excess of Building capacity unless approved in advance by Landlord, which
approval may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion. The use of electricity
in the Premises shall not exceed the capacity of existing feeders and risers and
electrical panels to or wiring in the Premises. Any risers or wiring required to
meet Tenant's excess electrical requirements shall, upon Tenant's written
request, be installed by Landlord, at Tenant's cost, if, in Landlord's judgment,
the same are necessary and shall not cause permanent damage to the Building or
the Premises, cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition, entail
excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs, or expenses, or interfere with
or disturb other tenants of the Building. If Tenant uses machines or equipment
in the Premises which affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air
conditioning system or otherwise overload any utility, Landlord may install
supplemental air conditioning units or other supplemental equipment in the
Premises, and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation, operation,
use, and maintenance, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30)
days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant an invoice therefor. Landlord
acknowledges that, to Landlord's knowledge, Tenant's existing (i.e. as of the
Execution Date of this Lease) electrical consumption does not exceed normal
office usage. Landlord's obligation to furnish services under Section 7(a) shall
be subject to the rules and regulations of the supplier of such services and
governmental rules and regulations. Landlord may, upon not less than thirty (30)
days' prior written notice to Tenant, discontinue any such service to the
Premises, provided Landlord first arranges for a direct connection thereof
through the supplier of such service. Tenant shall, however, be responsible for
contracting with the supplier of such service and for paying all deposits for,
and costs relating to, such service. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to
restore any service required of it that becomes unavailable; however, such
unavailability shall not render Landlord liable for any

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

damages caused thereby, be a constructive eviction of Tenant, constitute a
breach of any implied warranty, or entitle Tenant to any abatement of Tenant's
obligations hereunder.

            (c) COMMON AREAS. The term "COMMON AREA" is defined for all purposes
of this Lease as that part of the Project intended for the common use of all
tenants, including among other facilities, the ground floor lobby, elevator
lobbies and hallways on multi-tenant floors, parking areas, private streets and
alleys, landscaping, curbs, loading areas, sidewalks, malls and promenades
(enclosed or otherwise), lighting facilities, drinking fountains, meeting rooms,
public toilets, the parking garage, and the like, but excluding: (i) space in
buildings (now or hereafter existing) designated for rental for commercial
purposes, as the same may exist from time to time; (ii) streets and alleys
maintained by a public authority; (iii) areas within the Project which may from
time to time not be owned by Landlord (unless subject to a cross-access
agreement benefiting the area which includes the Premises); and (iv) areas
leased to a single-purpose user where access is restricted. In addition,
although the roof(s) of the building(s) in the Project is not literally part of
the Common Area, it will be deemed to be so included for purposes of: (i)
Landlord's ability to prescribe rules and regulations regarding same; and (ii)
its inclusion for purposes of Operating Costs reimbursements. Landlord reserves
the right to change from time to time the dimensions and location of the Common
Area, as well as the dimensions, identities, locations and types of any
buildings, signs or other improvements in the Project. For example, and without
limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, Landlord may from
time to time substitute for any parking area other areas reasonably accessible
to the tenants of the Building, as applicable, which areas may be elevated,
surface or underground. Tenant, and its employees and customers, and when duly
authorized pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, its subtenants, licensees
and concessionaires, shall have the non-exclusive right to use the Common Area
(excluding roof(s)) as constituted from time to time, such use to be in common
with Landlord, other tenants in the Building, and other persons permitted by the
Landlord to use the same, and subject to rights of governmental authorities,
easements, other restrictions of record, and such reasonable rules and
regulations governing use as Landlord may from time to time prescribe. For
example, and without limiting the generality of Landlord's ability to establish
rules and regulations governing all aspects of the Common Area, Tenant agrees as
follows:

                  (i) Tenant shall not solicit business within the Common Area
nor take any action which would interfere with the rights of other persons to
use the Common Area.

                  (ii) Landlord may temporarily close any part of the Common
Area for such periods of time as may be necessary to make repairs or alterations
or to prevent the public from obtaining prescriptive rights.

                  (iii) With regard to the roof(s) of the building(s) in the
Project, as applicable, use of the roof(s) is reserved to Landlord, or with
regard to any tenant demonstrating to Landlord's satisfaction a need to use
same, to such tenant after receiving prior written consent from Landlord.

      (d) HVAC STANDARDS. The air conditioning system is based upon an occupancy
of not more than one person per 150 square feet of floor area, and upon a
combined lighting and

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

standard electrical load not to exceed 2.5 watts per square foot of usable area.
In the event Tenant exceeds this condition or introduces onto the Premises
equipment which overloads the system, and/or in any other way causes the system
not adequately to perform their proper functions, supplementary systems may at
Landlord's option be provided by Landlord at Tenant's expense, and Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord in such an amount as will compensate it for the cost incurred
by it in operating such supplementary systems.

      (e) ABATEMENT OF RENT BASED UPON UNTENANTABILITY. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if: (i) such utility service is interrupted because of the negligence
or willful misconduct of Landlord, its employees, agents or contractors; (ii)
Tenant notifies Landlord of such interruption in writing (the "INTERRUPTION
NOTICE"); (iii) such interruption does not arise in whole or in part as a result
of an act or omission of a Tenant Party; (iv) such interruption is not caused by
a fire or other casualty; (v) the repair or restoration of such service is
reasonably within the control of Landlord; and (vi) as a result of such
interruption, the Premises or a material portion thereof, is rendered
untenantable (meaning that Tenant is unable to use the Premises in the normal
course of it business) and Tenant in fact ceases to use the Premises, or
material portion thereof, then, Tenant's sole remedy for such interruption shall
be as follows: on the tenth (10th) consecutive business day following the later
to occur of the date the Premises (or material portion thereof) becomes
untenantable, the date Tenant ceases to use such space and the date Tenant
provides Landlord with an Interruption Notice, the Rent payable hereunder shall
be abated on a per diem basis for each day after such ten (10) business day
period based upon the percentage of the Premises so rendered untenantable and
not used by Tenant, and such abatement shall continue until the date the
Premises become tenantable again.

      8. ALTERATIONS; REPAIRS; MAINTENANCE; SIGNS.

            (a) ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or
improvements to the Premises (collectively, the "ALTERATIONS") without the prior
written consent of Landlord, except for the installation of unattached, movable
trade fixtures which may be installed without drilling, cutting or otherwise
defacing the Premises. Tenant shall furnish complete plans and specifications to
Landlord for its approval at the time it requests Landlord's consent to any
Alterations if the desired Alterations: (i) will affect the Building's Systems
or Building's Structure; or (ii) will require the filing of plans and
specifications with any governmental or quasi-governmental agency or authority;
or (iii) will cost in excess of Twenty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($20,000.00).
Subsequent to obtaining Landlord's consent and prior to commencement of the
Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord any building permit required by
applicable Law and a copy of the executed construction contract(s). Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord within ten (10) days after the rendition of a bill for all of
Landlord's actual out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with any
Alterations, including all management, engineering, outside consulting, and
construction fees incurred by or on behalf of Landlord for the review and
approval of Tenant's plans and specifications and for the monitoring of
construction of the Alterations. If Landlord consents to the making of any
Alteration, such Alteration shall be made by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and
expense by a contractor approved in writing by Landlord. Tenant shall require
its contractor to maintain insurance in such amounts and in such form as
Landlord may require. Without Landlord's prior written consent, Tenant shall not
use any portion of the Common Areas either within or without the Project, as

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

applicable, in connection with the making of any Alterations. If the Alterations
which Tenant causes to be constructed result in Landlord being required to make
any alterations and/or improvements to other portions of the Project, as
applicable, in order to comply with any applicable Laws, then Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord upon demand for all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord
in making such alterations and/or improvements. Any Alterations made by Tenant
shall become the property of Landlord upon installation and shall remain on and
be surrendered with the Premises upon the expiration or sooner termination of
this Lease, unless Landlord requires the removal of such Alterations. If
Landlord requires the removal of such Alterations, Tenant shall at its sole cost
and expense, forthwith and with all due diligence (but in any event not later
than ten (10) days after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease)
remove all or any portion of any Alterations made by Tenant which are designated
by Landlord to be removed (including without limitation stairs, bank vaults, and
cabling, if applicable) and repair and restore the Premises in a good and
workmanlike manner to their original condition, reasonable wear and tear
excepted. All construction work done by Tenant within the Premises shall be
performed in a good and workmanlike manner with new materials of first-class
quality, lien-free and in compliance with all Laws, and in such manner as to
cause a minimum of interference with other construction in progress and with the
transaction of business in the Project, as applicable. Tenant agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless against any loss, liability or
damage resulting from such work, and Tenant shall, if requested by Landlord,
furnish a bond or other security satisfactory to Landlord against any such loss,
liability or damage. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease. Landlord's consent to or approval of any
alterations, additions or improvements (or the plans therefor) shall not
constitute a representation or warranty by Landlord, nor Landlord's acceptance,
that the same comply with sound architectural and/or engineering practices or
with all applicable Laws, and Tenant shall be solely responsible for ensuring
all such compliance. Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility for any
claim, injury or damage alleged to have been caused by the particular materials,
whether building standard or non-building standard, appliances or equipment
selected by Tenant in connection with any work performed by or on behalf of
Tenant in the premises including, without limitation, furniture, carpeting,
copiers, laser printers, computers and refrigerators.

            (b) REPAIRS; MAINTENANCE

                  (i) BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall, subject to reimbursement as
set forth in Exhibit C, keep and maintain in good repair and working order and
make repairs to and perform maintenance upon: (1) structural elements of the
Building; (2) standard mechanical (including HVAC), electrical, plumbing and
fire/life safety systems serving the Building generally; (3) Common Areas; (4)
the roof of the Building; (5) exterior windows of the Building; and (6)
elevators serving the Building. Landlord shall not be liable for injuries to
persons or damage to property arising from any failure to make any such repairs
or to perform any maintenance unless such failure shall persist for an
unreasonable time after written notice of the need of such repairs or
maintenance is given to Landlord by Tenant. If any of the foregoing maintenance
or repair is necessitated due to the acts or omissions of any Tenant Party,
Tenant shall, subject to Section 11(c), pay the costs of such repairs or
maintenance to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice,
together with an administrative charge in an amount equal to fifteen percent
(15%) of the cost of the repairs. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

for any interruption of Tenant's business or inconvenience caused due to any
work performed in the Premises or in the Project pursuant to Landlord's rights
and obligations under the Lease; provided nothing in this sentence shall limit
Tenant's rights pursuant to Section 7(e). To the extent allowed by law, Tenant
waives the right to make repairs at Landlord's expense under any law, statute or
ordinance now or hereafter in effect.

                  (ii) BY TENANT. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense,
promptly perform all maintenance and repairs to the Premises that are not
Landlord's express responsibility under this Lease, and shall keep the Premises
in good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Tenant's repair
obligations include, without limitation, repairs to: (1) floor covering and/or
raised flooring; (2) interior partitions; (3) doors; (4) the interior side of
demising walls; (5) electronic, phone and data cabling and related equipment
(collectively, "CABLE") that is installed by or for the benefit of Tenant and
located in the Premises or other portions of the Building or Project; (6)
supplemental air conditioning units, private showers and kitchens, including hot
water heaters, plumbing, dishwashers, ice machines and similar facilities
serving Tenant exclusively; (7) phone rooms used exclusively by Tenant; (8)
Alterations performed by contractors retained by or on behalf of Tenant,
including related HVAC balancing; and (9) all of Tenant's furnishings, trade
fixtures, equipment and inventory. All of such work shall be performed by a
contractor approved by Landlord, at Tenant's expense. All work shall be
performed in accordance with the rules and procedures described in Section 8(a).
If Tenant fails to make any repairs to the Premises within fifteen (15) days
after notice from Landlord, or such longer period of time as Tenant may
reasonably require, provided that Tenant commences to perform such work within
such fifteen (15) day period and thereafter diligently and continuously
prosecutes such work to completion, Landlord may, in addition to any other
remedy available to Landlord, make the repairs, and Tenant shall pay the
reasonable cost of the repairs to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt
of an invoice, together with an administrative charge in an amount equal to
fifteen percent (15%) of the cost of the repairs. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event of an emergency or where the area to be repaired is visible from
the exterior of the Building, Landlord shall have the right to perform such
repairs at Tenant's expense without giving prior notice to Tenant. At the
expiration of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises in good condition,
excepting reasonable wear and tear and losses required to be restored by
Landlord. If Landlord elects to store any personal property of Tenant, including
goods, wares, merchandise, inventory, trade fixtures and other personal property
of Tenant, that is not removed from the Premises as of the expiration or prior
termination of the Term, the same shall be stored at the sole risk of Tenant.
Except, subject to Section 11(c), to the extent of Landlord's negligence,
Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for any loss or damage to persons or
property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas,
electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of the Project or from
the pipes, appliances or plumbing works therein or from the roof, street or
subsurface or from any other places resulting from dampness or any other cause
whatsoever, or from the act or negligence of any other tenant or any officer,
agent, employee, contractor or guest of any such tenant. It is generally
understood that mold spores are present essentially everywhere and that mold can
grow in most any moist location. Emphasis is properly placed on prevention of
moisture and on good housekeeping and ventilation practices. Tenant acknowledges
the necessity of housekeeping, ventilation, and moisture control (especially in
kitchens, janitor's closets, bathrooms, break rooms and around outside walls)
for mold prevention. In signing this Lease, Tenant has first inspected the
Premises and certifies that

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

it has not observed mold, mildew or moisture within the Premises. Tenant agrees
to immediately notify Landlord if it observes mold/mildew and/or moisture
conditions (from any source, including leaks), and allow Landlord to evaluate
and make recommendations and/or take appropriate corrective action. Tenant
relieves Landlord from any liability for any bodily injury or damages to
property caused by or associated with moisture or the growth of or occurrence of
mold or mildew on the Premises. In addition, execution of this Lease constitutes
acknowledgement by Tenant that control of moisture and mold prevention are
integral to its Lease obligations.

                  (iii) PERFORMANCE OF WORK. All work described in this Section
8 shall be performed only by contractors and subcontractors approved in writing
by Landlord, as well as the time schedule for the performance of such work
approved by Landlord. Landlord agrees that it will not unreasonably withhold
such approval. Tenant shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to procure
and maintain insurance coverage naming Landlord, Landlord's property management
company and INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("INVESCO") as additional
insureds against such risks, in such amounts, and with such companies as
Landlord may reasonably require. Tenant shall provide Landlord with the
identities, mailing addresses and telephone numbers of all persons performing
work or supplying materials prior to beginning such construction and Landlord
may post on and about the Premises notices of non-responsibility pursuant to
applicable Laws. All such work shall be performed in accordance with all Laws
and in a good and workmanlike manner so as not to damage the Building (including
the Premises, the Building's Structure and the Building's Systems). All such
work which may affect the Building's Structure or the Building's Systems, at
Landlord's election, must be performed by Landlord's usual contractor for such
work or a contractor approved by Landlord. All work affecting the roof of the
Building must be performed by Landlord's roofing contractor or a contractor
approved by Landlord and no such work will be permitted if it would void or
reduce the warranty on the roof. Tenant's contract with any contractors
performing any work performed by, or on behalf of, Tenant pursuant to this
Section 8 shall include the Required Tenant Work General Conditions attached
hereto as Exhibit G, and Landlord shall have the right to enforce such General
Conditions directly against any of Tenant's contractors.

            (e) MECHANIC'S LIENS. All work performed, materials furnished, or
obligations incurred by or at the request of a Tenant Party shall be deemed
authorized and ordered by Tenant only, and Tenant shall not permit any
mechanic's liens to be filed against the Premises or the Project in connection
therewith. Upon completion of any such work, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord
final lien waivers from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen who
performed such work. If such a lien is filed, then Tenant shall, within ten (10)
business days after Landlord has delivered notice of the filing thereof to
Tenant (or such earlier time period as may be necessary to prevent the
forfeiture of the Premises, Project or any interest of Landlord therein or the
imposition of a civil or criminal fine with respect thereto), either: (1) pay
the amount of the lien and cause the lien to be released of record; or (2)
diligently contest such lien and deliver to Landlord a bond or other security
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. If Tenant fails to timely take either such
action, then Landlord may pay the lien claim, and any amounts so paid, including
expenses and interest, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days
after Landlord has invoiced Tenant therefor. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and
agree that their relationship is and shall be solely that of "landlord-tenant"
(thereby excluding a relationship of

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

"owner-contractor," "owner-agent" or other similar relationships). Accordingly,
all materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics, laborers and any other
persons now or hereafter contracting with Tenant, any contractor or
subcontractor of Tenant or any other Tenant Party for the furnishing of any
labor, services, materials, supplies or equipment with respect to any portion of
the Premises, at any time from the date hereof until the end of the Term, are
hereby charged with notice that they look exclusively to Tenant to obtain
payment for same. Nothing herein shall be deemed a consent by Landlord to any
liens being placed upon the Premises, Project or Landlord's interest therein due
to any work performed by or for Tenant or deemed to give any contractor or
subcontractor or materialman any right or interest in any funds held by Landlord
to reimburse Tenant for any portion of the cost of such work. Tenant shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord, its property manager, Invesco, any
subsidiary or affiliate of the foregoing, and their respective officers,
directors, shareholders, partners, employees, managers, contractors, attorneys
and agents (collectively, the "INDEMNITEES") from and against all claims,
demands, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages and expenses (including
attorneys' fees) in any way arising from or relating to the failure by any
Tenant Party to pay for any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations
incurred by or at the request of a Tenant Party. The foregoing indemnity shall
survive termination or expiration of this Lease.

            (f) SIGNS. Tenant shall not place or permit to be placed any signs
upon: (i) the roof of the Building; or (ii) the Common Areas; or (iii) any area
visible from the exterior of the Premises without Landlord's prior written
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed provided any proposed sign is placed only in those locations as may be
designated by Landlord, and complies with the sign criteria promulgated by
Landlord from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the
right, during the term of the Lease, to use up to Tenant's proportionate share
of the Building directory to list Tenant's name and the names of Tenant's
employees. The initial listing of Tenant's name and the names of Tenant's
employees shall be at Landlord's cost and expense. Any changes, replacements or
additions by Tenant to such directory shall be at Tenant's sole cost and
expense. In addition, Landlord shall provide to Tenant a building standard
tenant identification sign at the entrance to Tenant's premises. Upon request of
Landlord, Tenant shall immediately remove any sign, advertising material or
lettering which Tenant has placed or permitted to be placed upon the exterior or
interior surface of any door or window or at any point inside the Premises,
which in Landlord's reasonable opinion, is of such a nature as to not be in
keeping with the standards of the Building, and if Tenant fails to do so,
Landlord may without liability remove the same at Tenant's expense. Tenant shall
comply with such regulations as may from time to time be promulgated by Landlord
governing signs, advertising material or lettering of all tenants in the
Project. The Tenant, upon vacation of the Premises, or the removal or alteration
of its sign for any reason, shall be responsible for the repair, painting or
replacement of the Building fascia surface or other portion of the Building
where signs are attached. If Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may have the sign
removed and the cost of removal plus fifteen percent (15%) as an administrative
fee shall be payable by Tenant within thirty (30) days of invoice.

            (g) LABOR HARMONY.

      Tenant agrees that it will not, either directly or indirectly, use any
contractors and/or materials if their use will create any difficulty, whether in
the nature of a labor dispute or

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

otherwise, with other contractors and/or labor engaged by Tenant or Landlord or
others in the construction, maintenance and/or operation of the Building or any
part thereof.

      9. USE(a) Tenant may only occupy and use the Premises for the Permitted
Use (as set forth in the Basic Lease Information) and for no other purpose
whatsoever, and shall comply with all Laws relating to the use, condition,
access to, and occupancy of the Premises and will not commit waste, overload the
Building's Structure or the Building's Systems or subject the Premises to use
that would damage the Premises. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall
obtain and keep in effect during the term, all permits, licenses, and other
authorizations necessary to permit Tenant to use and occupy the Premises for the
Permitted Use in accordance with applicable Law. The population density within
the Premises as a whole shall at no time exceed one person for each three
hundred (300) rentable square feet in the Premises. Notwithstanding anything in
this Lease to the contrary, as between Landlord and Tenant: (a) Tenant shall
bear the risk of complying with Title III of the Americans With Disabilities Act
of 1990, any state laws governing handicapped access or architectural barriers,
and all rules, regulations, and guidelines promulgated under such laws, as
amended from time to time (the "DISABILITIES ACTS") in the Premises; and (b)
Landlord shall bear the risk of complying with the Disabilities Acts in the
Common Areas (subject to reimbursement as set forth in Exhibit C), other than
compliance that is necessitated by the use of the Premises for other than the
Permitted Use or as a result of any alterations or additions made by Tenant
(which risk and responsibility shall be borne by Tenant). Tenant shall not use
any substantial portion of the Premises for a "call center", any other
telemarketing use, or any credit processing use. In addition, the Premises shall
not be used for any purpose which creates strong, unusual, or offensive odors,
fumes, dust or vapors; which emits noise or sounds that are objectionable due to
intermittence, beat, frequency, shrillness, or loudness; which is associated
with indecent or pornographic matters; or which involves political or moral
issues (such as abortion issues). Tenant shall conduct its business and control
each other Tenant Party so as not to create any nuisance or unreasonably
interfere with other tenants or Landlord in its management of the Building.
Tenant shall not knowingly conduct or permit to be conducted in the Premises any
activity, or place any equipment in or about the Premises or the Building, which
will invalidate the insurance coverage in effect or increase the rate of fire
insurance or other insurance on the Premises or the Building. If any
invalidation of coverage or increase in the rate of fire insurance or other
insurance occurs or is threatened by any insurance company due to activity
conducted from the Premises, or any act or omission by Tenant, or its agents,
employees, representatives, or contractors, such statement or threat shall be
conclusive evidence that the increase in such rate is due to such act of Tenant
or the contents or equipment in or about the Premises, and, as a result thereof,
Tenant shall be liable for such increase and shall be considered Additional Rent
payable with the next monthly installment of Base Rent due under this Lease. In
no event shall Tenant introduce or permit to be kept on the Premises or brought
into the Building any dangerous, noxious, radioactive or explosive substance.

      (b) Vacancy Recapture Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
the Lease contained, if Tenant shall abandon or vacate the premises for a period
of no less than one hundred twenty (120) days, then Landlord shall have the
right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Tenant. So long as Tenant
is otherwise in compliance with its obligations under

                                      -12-

<PAGE>

the Lease, such termination shall not be deemed to be based upon the default by
Tenant in its obligations under the Lease.

      10. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

            (a) TRANSFERS. Except as set forth in Section 10(h), Tenant shall
not, without the prior written consent of Landlord: (1) assign, transfer, or
encumber this Lease or any estate or interest herein, whether directly or by
operation of law; (2) permit any other entity to become Tenant hereunder by
merger, consolidation, or other reorganization; (3) if Tenant is an entity other
than a corporation whose stock is publicly traded, permit the transfer of an
ownership interest in Tenant so as to result in a change in the current control
of Tenant; (4) sublet any portion of the Premises; (5) grant any license,
concession, or other right of occupancy of any portion of the Premises; or (6)
permit the use of the Premises by any parties other than Tenant (any of the
events listed in Section 10(a)(1) through Section 10(a)(6) being a "TRANSFER").

            (b) CONSENT STANDARDS. Provided that Tenant first complies with the
procedures set forth in Section (f) below, Landlord shall not unreasonably
withhold its consent to any assignment or subletting of the Premises, provided
that there is then no Event of Default by Tenant under the Lease and the
proposed transferee: (1) is creditworthy; (2) has a good reputation in the
business community; (3) will use the Premises for the Permitted Use (thus,
excluding without limitation, uses for credit processing and telemarketing) and
will not use the Premises in any manner that would conflict with any exclusive
use agreement or other similar agreement entered into by Landlord with any other
tenant of the Building; (4) will not use the Premises or Building in a manner
that would materially increase the pedestrian or vehicular traffic to the
Premises or Building; (5) is not a governmental entity, or subdivision or agency
thereof; (6) is not another occupant of the Building; and (7) is not a person or
entity with whom Landlord is then, or has been within the three-month period
prior to the time Tenant seeks to enter into such assignment or subletting,
negotiating to lease space in the Building, or any Affiliate of any such person
or entity; otherwise, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole discretion.

            (c) REQUEST FOR CONSENT. If Tenant requests Landlord's consent to a
Transfer, then, at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the
proposed Transfer, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written description of
all terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, copies of the proposed
pertinent documentation, and the following information about the proposed
transferee: name and address; reasonably satisfactory information about its
business and business history; its proposed use of the Premises; banking,
financial, and other credit information; and general references sufficient to
enable Landlord to determine the proposed transferee's creditworthiness and
character. Concurrently with Tenant's notice of any request for consent to a
Transfer, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee of $500 to defray Landlord's
expenses in reviewing such request, and Tenant shall also reimburse Landlord
immediately upon request for its reasonable attorneys' fees (not to exceed
$1,000) incurred in connection with considering any request for consent to a
Transfer.

            (d) CONDITIONS TO CONSENT. If Landlord consents to a proposed
Transfer, then the proposed transferee shall deliver to Landlord a written
agreement whereby it expressly assumes

                                      -13-

<PAGE>

Tenant's obligations hereunder; however, any transferee of less than all of the
space in the Premises shall be liable only for obligations under this Lease that
are properly allocable to the space subject to the Transfer for the period of
the Transfer. No Transfer shall release Tenant from its obligations under this
Lease, but rather Tenant and its transferee shall be jointly and severally
liable therefor. Landlord's consent to any Transfer shall not be deemed consent
to any subsequent Transfers. If an Event of Default occurs while the Premises or
any part thereof are subject to a Transfer, then Landlord, in addition to its
other remedies, may collect directly from such transferee all rents becoming due
to Tenant and apply such rents against Rent. Tenant authorizes its transferees
to make payments of rent directly to Landlord upon receipt of notice from
Landlord to do so following the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder.
Tenant shall pay for the cost of any demising walls or other improvements
necessitated by a proposed subletting or assignment.

            (e) ATTORNMENT BY SUBTENANTS. Each sublease by Tenant hereunder
shall be subject and subordinate to this Lease and to the matters to which this
Lease is or shall be subordinate, and each subtenant by entering into a sublease
is deemed to have agreed that in the event of termination, re-entry or
dispossession by Landlord under this Lease, Landlord may, at its option, either
terminate the sublease or take over all of the right, title and interest of
Tenant, as sublandlord, under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at
Landlord's option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions
of such sublease, except that Landlord shall not be: (1) liable for any previous
act or omission of Tenant under such sublease; (2) subject to any counterclaim,
offset or defense that such subtenant might have against Tenant; (3) bound by
any previous modification of such sublease or by any rent or additional rent or
advance rent which such subtenant might have paid for more than the current
month to Tenant, and all such rent shall remain due and owing, notwithstanding
such advance payment; (4) bound by any security or advance rental deposit made
by such subtenant which is not delivered or paid over to Landlord and with
respect to which such subtenant shall look solely to Tenant for refund or
reimbursement; or (5) obligated to perform any work in the subleased space or to
prepare it for occupancy, and in connection with such attornment, the subtenant
shall execute and deliver to Landlord any instruments Landlord may reasonably
request to evidence and confirm such attornment. Each subtenant or licensee of
Tenant shall be deemed, automatically upon and as a condition of its occupying
or using the Premises or any part thereof, to have agreed to be bound by the
terms and conditions set forth in this Section 10(e). The provisions of this
Section 10(e) shall be self-operative, and no further instrument shall be
required to give effect to this provision.

            (f) CANCELLATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Lease contained:

            (i)   Tenant shall, prior to offering or advertising the Premises,
                  or any portion thereof for sublease or assignment give
                  Landlord a Recapture Offer, as hereinafter defined.

            (ii)  For the purposes hereof a "Recapture Offer" shall be defined
                  as a notice in writing from Tenant to Landlord which:

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

                  (1)   States that Tenant desires to sublet the premises, or a
                        portion thereof, or to assign its interest in this
                        Lease.

                  (2)   Identifies the affected portion of the premises
                        ("Recapture Premises").

                  (3)   Identifies the period of time ("Recapture Period")
                        during which Tenant proposes to sublet the Recapture
                        Premises or to assign its interest in the Lease.

                  (4)   Offers to Landlord to terminate the Lease in respect of
                        the Recapture Premises (in the case of a proposed
                        assignment of Tenant's interest in the Lease or a
                        subletting for the remainder of the term of the Lease)
                        or to suspend the term of the Lease pro tanto in respect
                        of the Recapture Period (i.e. the term of the Lease in
                        respect of the Recapture Premises shall be terminated
                        during the Recapture Period and Tenant's rental
                        obligations shall be reduced in proportion to the ratio
                        of the Total Rentable Area of the Recapture Premises to
                        the Total Rentable Area of the premises then demised to
                        Tenant).

            (iii) Landlord shall have thirty (30) days to accept a Recapture
                  Offer. If Landlord does not timely give written notice to
                  Tenant accepting a Recapture Offer, then Landlord agrees that
                  it will not unreasonably withhold its consent to a proposed
                  sublease of the Recapture Premises for the Recapture Period
                  (or assignment of Tenant's interest in the Lease, as the case
                  may be), subject to the conditions set forth in this Section
                  10.

            (iv)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10
                  contained, if Tenant does not enter into a sublease with a
                  subtenant (or an assignment to an assignee, as the case may
                  be) approved by Landlord, as aforesaid, on or before the date
                  which is one hundred (100) days after the earlier of: (x) the
                  expiration of said thirty (30) day period, or (y) the date
                  that Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord will not accept
                  Tenant's offer to terminate or suspend the Lease, then
                  Landlord shall have the right arbitrarily to withhold its
                  consent to any subletting or assignment proposed to be entered
                  into by Tenant after the expiration of said one hundred (100)
                  day period unless Tenant again offers, in accordance with this
                  Section 10(f) either to terminate or to suspend the Lease in
                  respect of the portion of the premises proposed to be sublet
                  (or in respect of the entirety of the premises in the event of
                  a proposed assignment, as the case may be). If Tenant shall
                  make any subsequent offers to terminate or suspend the Lease
                  pursuant to this Section 10(f), any such subsequent offers
                  shall be treated in all respects as if it is Tenant's first
                  offer to suspend or terminate the

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

                  Lease pursuant to this Section 10(f), provided that the period
                  of time Landlord shall have in which to accept or reject such
                  subsequent offer shall be fifteen (15) days.

            (v)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained,
                  Tenant shall have no rights, under this Section 10, prior to
                  the date one (1) year after the Term Commencement Date.
                  Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall have no right to
                  give Landlord a Recapture Offer prior to the date one (1) year
                  after the Commencement Date.

            (g) Additional Compensation. Tenant shall pay to Landlord,
immediately upon receipt thereof, fifty (50%) percent of the excess of all
compensation received by Tenant or a Transfer over the Rent allocable to the
portion of the Premises covered thereby.

            (h) PERMITTED TRANSFERS. Notwithstanding Section 10(a), Tenant may
Transfer all or part of its interest in this Lease or all or part of the
Premises (a "PERMITTED TRANSFER") to the following types of entities (a
"PERMITTED TRANSFEREE") without the written consent of Landlord:

      (1) an Affiliate of Tenant;

      (2) any corporation, limited partnership, limited liability partnership,
      limited liability company or other business entity in which or with which
      Tenant, or its corporate successors or assigns, is merged or consolidated,
      in accordance with applicable statutory provisions governing merger and
      consolidation of business entities, so long as (A) Tenant's obligations
      hereunder are assumed by the entity surviving such merger or created by
      such consolidation; and (B) the Tangible Net Worth of the surviving or
      created entity is not less than the Tangible Net Worth of Tenant as of the
      date of execution of this Lease; or

      (3) any corporation, limited partnership, limited liability partnership,
      limited liability company or other business entity acquiring all or
      substantially all of Tenant's assets if such entity's Tangible Net Worth
      after such acquisition is not less than the Tangible Net Worth of Tenant
      as of the date of execution of this Lease.

Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any such Permitted Transfer. Tenant
shall remain liable for the performance of all of the obligations of Tenant
hereunder, or if Tenant no longer exists because of a merger, consolidation, or
acquisition, the surviving or acquiring entity shall expressly assume in writing
the obligations of Tenant hereunder. Additionally, the Permitted Transferee
shall comply with all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, including the
Permitted Use, and the use of the Premises by the Permitted Transferee may not
violate any other agreements affecting the Premises or the Building, Landlord or
other tenants of the Building. No later than five (5) business days after the
effective date of any Permitted Transfer, Tenant agrees to furnish Landlord with
(A) copies of the instrument effecting any of the foregoing Transfers, (B)
documentation establishing Tenant's satisfaction of the requirements set forth
above applicable to any such Transfer, and (C) evidence of insurance as required
under this Lease with respect to the Permitted Transferee. The occurrence of a
Permitted Transfer shall not waive

                                      -16-

<PAGE>

Landlord's rights as to any subsequent Transfers. "TANGIBLE NET WORTH" means the
excess of total assets over total liabilities, in each case as determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
("GAAP"), excluding, however, from the determination of total assets all assets
which would be classified as intangible assets under GAAP including goodwill,
licenses, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, and franchises. Any
subsequent Transfer by a Permitted Transferee shall be subject to the terms of
this Section 10.

            (i) No Release of Tenant. No assignment of Tenant's interest in the
Lease or sublease of the Premises, or any portion thereof, shall relieve Tenant
from its obligations as the primary party-Tenant under this Lease.

      11. INSURANCE; WAIVERS; SUBROGATION; INDEMNITY.

            (a) TENANT'S INSURANCE. Effective as of the earlier of: (1) the date
Tenant enters or occupies the Premises; or (2) the Commencement Date, and
continuing throughout the Term, Tenant shall maintain the following insurance
policies: (A) commercial general liability insurance in amounts of $5,000,000
per occurrence, or, following the expiration of the initial Term, such other
amounts as Landlord may from time to time reasonably require (and, if the use
and occupancy of the Premises include any activity or matter that is or may be
excluded from coverage under a commercial general liability policy [e.g., the
sale, service or consumption of alcoholic beverages], Tenant shall obtain such
endorsements to the commercial general liability policy or otherwise obtain
insurance to insure all liability arising from such activity or matter
[including liquor liability, if applicable] in such amounts as Landlord may
reasonably require), insuring Tenant, Landlord, Landlord's property management
company and Invesco against all liability for injury to or death of a person or
persons or damage to property arising from the use and occupancy of the Premises
and (without implying any consent by Landlord to the installation thereof) the
installation, operation, maintenance, repair or removal of Tenant's Off-Premises
Equipment with an additional insured endorsement; (B) Automobile Liability
covering any owned, non-owned, leased, rented or borrowed vehicles of Tenant
with limits no less than $5,000,000 combined single limit for property damage
and bodily injury; (C) Property insurance covering the full value of all
Alterations and improvements and betterments in the Premises, naming Landlord
and Landlord's Mortgagee (as defined in Section 12(a)) as additional loss payees
as their interests may appear; (D) Property insurance covering the full value of
all furniture, trade fixtures and personal property (including property of
Tenant or others) in the Premises or otherwise placed in the Project by or on
behalf of a Tenant Party (including Tenant's Off-Premises Equipment) it being
understood that no lack or inadequacy of insurance by Tenant shall in any event
make Landlord subject to any claim by virtue of any theft of or loss or damage
to any uninsured or inadequately insured property; (E) contractual liability
insurance sufficient to cover Tenant's indemnity obligations hereunder (but only
if such contractual liability insurance is not already included in Tenant's
commercial general liability insurance policy); (F) worker's compensation
insurance in amounts not less than statutorily required, and Employers'
Liability insurance with limits of not less than Five Million Dollars
($5,000,000); (G) intentionally omitted; (H) in the event Tenant performs any
alterations or repairs in, on, or to the Premises, Builder's Risk Insurance on
an All Risk basis (including collapse) on a completed value (non-

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

reporting) form, or by endorsement including such coverage pursuant to Section
11(a)(2)(C) hereinabove, for full replacement value covering all work
incorporated in the Building and all materials and equipment in or about the
Premises; and (I) such other insurance or any changes or endorsements to the
insurance required herein, including increased limits of coverage, as Landlord,
or any mortgagee or lessor of Landlord, may reasonably require from time to
time. Tenant's insurance shall provide primary coverage to Landlord and shall
not require contribution by any insurance maintained by Landlord, when any
policy issued to Landlord provides duplicate or similar coverage, and in such
circumstance Landlord's policy will be excess over Tenant's policy. Tenant shall
furnish to Landlord certificates of such insurance, with an additional insured
endorsement, and such other evidence satisfactory to Landlord of the maintenance
of all insurance coverages required hereunder at least ten (10) days prior to
the earlier of the Commencement Date or the date Tenant enters or occupies the
Premises, and at least fifteen (15) days prior to each renewal of said
insurance, and Tenant shall obtain a written obligation on the part of each
insurance company to notify Landlord at least thirty (30) days before
cancellation or a material change of any such insurance policies. All such
insurance policies shall be in form, and issued by companies with a Best's
rating of A:VII or better, reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. If Tenant fails
to comply with the foregoing insurance requirements or to deliver to Landlord
the certificates or evidence of coverage required herein, Landlord, in addition
to any other remedy available pursuant to this Lease or otherwise, may, but
shall not be obligated to, obtain such insurance and Tenant shall pay to
Landlord on demand the premium costs thereof, plus an administrative fee of
fifteen percent (15%) of such cost. It is expressly understood and agreed that
the foregoing minimum limits of insurance coverage shall not limit the liability
of Tenant for its acts or omissions as provided in this Lease.

            (b) LANDLORD'S INSURANCE. Throughout the Term of this Lease,
Landlord shall maintain, as a minimum, the following insurance policies: (1)
property insurance for the Building's replacement value (excluding property
required to be insured by Tenant), less a commercially-reasonable deductible if
Landlord so chooses; and (2) commercial general liability insurance in an amount
of not less than $3,000,000. Landlord may, but is not obligated to, maintain
such other insurance and additional coverages as it may deem necessary. Tenant
shall pay its Proportionate Share of the cost of all insurance carried by
Landlord with respect to the Project, as set forth on Exhibit C. The foregoing
insurance policies and any other insurance carried by Landlord shall be for the
sole benefit of Landlord and under Landlord's sole control, and Tenant shall
have no right or claim to any proceeds thereof or any other rights thereunder.

            (c) NO SUBROGATION. Landlord and Tenant each waives any claim it
might have against the other party, and Tenant hereby waives any claim which it
might have against Landlord's managing agent, for any damage to or theft,
destruction, loss, or loss of use of any property, to the extent the same is
insured against under any insurance policy that covers the Building, the
Premises, Landlord's or Tenant's fixtures, personal property, leasehold
improvements, or business, or is required to be insured against under the terms
hereof, regardless of whether the negligence of the other party caused such Loss
(defined below). Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive any right of subrogation
and right of recovery or cause of action which it might have against the other
party, and Tenant hereby waives any claim which it might have against Landlord's
managing agent, for injury including death or disease to respective employees of
either as covered by Worker's Compensation (or which would have been covered

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

if Tenant or Landlord as the case may be, was carrying the insurance as required
by this lease). Each party shall cause its insurance carrier to endorse all
applicable policies waiving the carrier's rights of recovery under subrogation
or otherwise against the other party.

            (d) INDEMNITY. Subject to Section 11(c), Tenant shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Landlord and the Indemnitees from and against all
claims, demands, liabilities, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages, and
expenses (including attorneys' fees) and all losses and damages arising from:
(1) any injury to or death of any person or the damage to or theft, destruction,
loss, or loss of use of any property or inconvenience (a "LOSS") arising from
any occurrence on the Premises, the use of the Common Areas by any Tenant Party,
or arising out of the installation, operation, maintenance, repair or removal of
any of Tenant's Off-Premises Equipment, except to the extent caused by
Landlord's negligence; or (2) Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under
this Lease. The indemnities set forth in this Section 11(d) shall survive
termination or expiration of this Lease and shall not terminate or be waived,
diminished or affected in any manner by any abatement or apportionment of Rent
under any provision of this Lease. If any proceeding is filed for which
indemnity is required hereunder, Tenant agrees, upon request therefor, to defend
Landlord in such proceeding at its sole cost utilizing counsel satisfactory to
Landlord in its sole discretion.

      12. SUBORDINATION; ATTORNMENT; NOTICE TO LANDLORD'S MORTGAGEE.

            (a) SUBORDINATION. This Lease shall be subordinate to any deed of
trust, mortgage, or other security instrument (each, a "MORTGAGE"), or any
ground lease, master lease, or primary lease (each, a "PRIMARY LEASE"), that now
or hereafter covers all or any part of the Premises (the mortgagee under any
such Mortgage, beneficiary under any such deed of trust, or the lessor under any
such Primary Lease is referred to herein as a "LANDLORD'S MORTGAGEE").
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subordination of this Lease to future
Mortgages shall be subject to Tenant's receipt of a non-disturbance agreement
("SNDA") reasonably acceptable to Tenant which provides in substance that so
long as Tenant is not in default under the Lease past applicable cure periods,
its use and occupancy of the Premises shall not be disturbed notwithstanding any
default of Landlord under such Mortgage. Any Landlord's Mortgagee may elect at
any time, unilaterally, to make this Lease superior to its Mortgage, Primary
Lease, or other interest in the Premises by so notifying Tenant in writing. The
provisions of this Section shall be self-operative and no further instrument of
subordination shall be required; however, in confirmation of such subordination,
Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord (or such other party designated by
Landlord) within ten (10) days after written request therefor such
documentation, in recordable form if required, as a Landlord's Mortgagee may
reasonably request to evidence the subordination of this Lease to such
Landlord's Mortgagee's Mortgage or Primary Lease (including a subordination,
non-disturbance and attornment agreement) or, if the Landlord's Mortgagee so
elects, the subordination of such Landlord's Mortgagee's Mortgage or Primary
Lease to this Lease.

            (b) ATTORNMENT. Tenant shall attorn to any party succeeding to
Landlord's interest in the Premises, whether by purchase, foreclosure, deed in
lieu of foreclosure, power of sale, termination of lease, or otherwise, upon
such party's request, and shall execute such agreements confirming such
attornment as such party may reasonably request.

                                      -19-

<PAGE>

            (c) NOTICE TO LANDLORD'S MORTGAGEE. Tenant shall not seek to enforce
any remedy it may have for any default on the part of Landlord without first
giving written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, specifying
the default in reasonable detail, to any Landlord's Mortgagee whose address has
been given to Tenant, and affording such Landlord's Mortgagee a reasonable
opportunity to perform Landlord's obligations hereunder. With respect to all of
Tenant's remedies other than any right which Tenant has to terminate this Lease,
Landlord's Mortgagee shall have the same time period, after receiving written
notice of Landlord's default which Landlord has to cure such default, except
that with respect to any default of Landlord on which Tenant asserts that it has
the right to terminate the lease, Landlord's Mortgagee shall have such
additional period of time (not to exceed more than 120 days longer than Landlord
has to cure such default) as Landlord's Mortgagee may require to cure such
default.

            (d) LANDLORD'S MORTGAGEE'S PROTECTION PROVISIONS. If Landlord's
Mortgagee shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, Landlord's
Mortgagee shall not be: (1) liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor
(including Landlord); (2) bound by any rent or additional rent or advance rent
which Tenant might have paid for more than one (1) month in advance to any prior
lessor (including Landlord), and all such rent shall remain due and owing,
notwithstanding such advance payment; (3) bound by any security or advance
rental deposit made by Tenant which is not delivered or paid over to Landlord's
Mortgagee and with respect to which Tenant shall look solely to Landlord for
refund or reimbursement; (4) bound by any termination, amendment or modification
of this Lease made without Landlord's Mortgagee's consent and written approval,
except for those terminations, amendments and modifications permitted to be made
by Landlord without Landlord's Mortgagee's consent pursuant to the terms of the
loan documents between Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee; (5) subject to the
defenses which Tenant might have against any prior lessor (including Landlord);
and (6) subject to the offsets which Tenant might have against any prior lessor
(including Landlord) except for those offset rights which (A) are expressly
provided in this Lease, (B) relate to periods of time following the acquisition
of the Building by Landlord's Mortgagee, and (C) Tenant has provided written
notice to Landlord's Mortgagee and provided Landlord's Mortgagee a reasonable
opportunity to cure the event giving rise to such offset event. Landlord's
Mortgagee shall have no liability or responsibility under or pursuant to the
terms of this Lease or otherwise after it ceases to own an interest in the
Building. Nothing in this Lease shall be construed to require Landlord's
Mortgagee to see to the application of the proceeds of any loan, and Tenant's
agreements set forth herein shall not be impaired on account of any modification
of the documents evidencing and securing any loan.

      13. RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant shall comply with the rules and
regulations of the Building which are attached hereto as Exhibit E. Landlord
may, from time to time, change such rules and regulations for the safety, care,
or cleanliness of the Building and related facilities, provided that such
changes are applicable to all tenants of the Building, will not unreasonably
interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises and are enforced by Landlord in a
non-discriminatory manner. Tenant shall be responsible for the compliance with
such rules and regulations by each Tenant Party.

      14. CONDEMNATION.

                                      -20-

<PAGE>

            (a) TOTAL TAKING. If the entire Building or Premises are taken by
right of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof (a "TAKING"), this Lease
shall terminate as of the date of the Taking.

            (b) PARTIAL TAKING - TENANT'S RIGHTS. If any part of the Building
becomes subject to a Taking and such Taking will prevent Tenant from conducting
its business in the Premises in a manner reasonably comparable to that conducted
immediately before such Taking for a period of more than one hundred eighty
(180) days, then Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date of such Taking
by giving written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the Taking,
and Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such Taking. If Tenant does not
terminate this Lease, then Rent shall be abated on a reasonable basis as to that
portion of the Premises rendered untenantable by the Taking.

            (c) PARTIAL TAKING - LANDLORD'S RIGHTS. If any material portion, but
less than all, of the Building becomes subject to a Taking, or if Landlord is
required to pay any of the proceeds arising from a Taking to a Landlord's
Mortgagee, then Landlord may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice
thereof to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such Taking (provided that
Landlord terminates the leases of all similarly situated tenants), and Rent
shall be apportioned as of the date of such Taking. If Landlord does not so
terminate this Lease, then this Lease will continue, but if any portion of the
Premises has been taken, Rent shall abate as provided in the last sentence of
Section 14(b).

            (d) AWARD. If any Taking occurs, then Landlord shall receive the
entire award or other compensation for the Land, the Building, and other
improvements taken; however, Tenant may separately pursue a claim (to the extent
it will not reduce Landlord's award) against the condemnor for the value of
Tenant's personal property which Tenant is entitled to remove under this Lease,
moving costs, loss of business, and other claims it may have.

      15. FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY.

            (a) REPAIR ESTIMATE. If the Premises or the Building are damaged by
fire or other casualty (a "CASUALTY"), Landlord shall deliver to Tenant within
sixty (60) days after such Casualty a good faith estimate (the "DAMAGE NOTICE")
of the time needed to repair the damage caused by such Casualty.

            (b) TENANT'S RIGHTS. If a material portion of the Premises is
damaged by Casualty such that Tenant is prevented from conducting its business
in the Premises in a manner reasonably comparable to that conducted immediately
before such Casualty and Landlord estimates that the damage caused thereby
cannot be repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days after the commencement
of repairs (the "REPAIR PERIOD"), then Tenant may terminate this Lease by
delivering written notice to Landlord of its election to terminate within thirty
(30) days after the Damage Notice has been delivered to Tenant. If Landlord
fails to substantially complete repairs to the Premises within one hundred
eighty (180) days of the date of the casualty, subject to force majeure delays,
then Tenant shall have the right to terminate the Lease upon thirty (30) days
prior written notice delivered to Landlord at any time after such one hundred
eighty (180) day period and prior to Landlord's substantial completion of such
repairs;

                                      -21-

<PAGE>

provided however, that if Landlord substantially completes such repairs within
such thirty (30) day period, then Tenant shall have no further right to
terminate the Lease pursuant to this sentence.

            (c) LANDLORD'S RIGHTS. If a Casualty damages the Premises or a
material portion of the Building and: (1) Landlord estimates that the damage to
the Premises cannot be repaired within the Repair Period; (2) the damage to the
Premises exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the replacement cost thereof (excluding
foundations and footings), as estimated by Landlord, and such damage occurs
during the last two (2) years of the Term; (3) regardless of the extent of
damage to the Premises, Landlord makes a good faith determination that restoring
the Building would be uneconomical; or (4) Landlord is required to pay any
insurance proceeds arising out of the Casualty to a Landlord's Mortgagee, then
Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving written notice of its election to
terminate within thirty (30) days after the Damage Notice has been delivered to
Tenant (provided that Landlord terminates the leases of all other similarly
situated tenants).

            (d) REPAIR OBLIGATION. If neither party elects to terminate this
Lease following a Casualty, then Landlord shall, within a reasonable time after
such Casualty, begin to repair the Premises and shall proceed with reasonable
diligence to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as they
existed immediately before such Casualty; however, other than building standard
leasehold improvements Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any
Alterations or betterments within the Premises (which shall be promptly and with
due diligence repaired and restored by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense)
or any furniture, equipment, trade fixtures or personal property of Tenant or
others in the Premises or the Building, and Landlord's obligation to repair or
restore the Premises shall be limited to the extent of the insurance proceeds
actually received by Landlord for the Casualty in question. If this Lease is
terminated under the provisions of this Section 15, Landlord shall be entitled
to the full proceeds of the insurance policies providing coverage for all
Alterations, improvements and betterments in the Premises (and, if Tenant has
failed to maintain insurance on such items as required by this Lease, Tenant
shall pay Landlord an amount equal to the proceeds Landlord would have received
had Tenant maintained insurance on such items as required by this Lease).

            (e) ABATEMENT OF RENT. If the Premises are damaged by Casualty, Rent
for the portion of the Premises rendered untenantable by the damage shall be
abated on a reasonable basis from the date of damage until the completion of
Landlord's repairs (or until the date of termination of this Lease by Landlord
or Tenant as provided above, as the case may be), unless a Tenant Party caused
such damage, in which case, Tenant shall continue to pay Rent without abatement.

      16. PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES. Tenant shall be liable for all taxes levied
or assessed against personal property, furniture, or fixtures placed by Tenant
in the Premises or in or on the Building or Project. If any taxes for which
Tenant is liable are levied or assessed against Landlord or Landlord's property
and Landlord elects to pay the same, or if the assessed value of Landlord's
property is increased by inclusion of such personal property, furniture or
fixtures and Landlord elects to pay the taxes based on such increase, then
Tenant shall pay to Landlord,

                                      -22-

<PAGE>

within thirty (30) days following written request therefor, the part of such
taxes for which Tenant is primarily liable hereunder.

      17. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Each of the following occurrences shall be an
"EVENT OF DEFAULT":

            (a) PAYMENT DEFAULT. Tenant's failure to pay Rent within five (5)
calendar days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's written notice that the same
is due; provided, however, Landlord shall not be obligated to provide written
notice of monetary default more than two (2) times in any calendar year, and
each subsequent monetary default shall be an Event of Default if not received
within five (5) days after the same is due;

            (b) INTENTIONALLY OMITTED;

            (c) ESTOPPEL/FINANCIAL STATEMENT/COMMENCEMENT DATE LETTER. Tenant
fails to provide: (i) any estoppel certificate after Landlord's written request
therefor within the time period required pursuant to Section 26(e) and such
failure shall continue for five (5) days after receipt by Tenant of Landlord's
second request for such estoppel certificate; (ii) any financial statement after
Landlord's written request therefor within the time period required pursuant to
Section 26(q) and such failure shall continue for five (5) days after receipt by
Tenant of Landlord's second request for such financial statement; or (iii) the
Confirmation of Commencement Date in the form of Exhibit F within the time
period required pursuant to Section 3 and such failure shall continue for five
(5) days after receipt by Tenant of Landlord's second request for such
Confirmation of Commencement Date and such failure shall continue for five (5)
days after receipt by Tenant of Landlord's second request for such Confirmation
of Commencement Date;

            (d) INSURANCE. Tenant fails to procure, maintain and deliver to
Landlord evidence of the insurance policies and coverages as required under
Section 11(a);

            (e) MECHANIC'S LIENS. Tenant fails to pay and release of record, or
diligently contest and bond around, any mechanic's lien filed against the
Premises or the Project for any work performed, materials furnished, or
obligation incurred by or at the request of Tenant, within the time and in the
manner required by Section 8(c);

            (f) OTHER DEFAULTS. Tenant's failure to perform, comply with, or
observe any other agreement or obligation of Tenant under this Lease and the
continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) calendar days or more
after Landlord has delivered to Tenant written notice thereof; provided,
however, if such default is of the type which cannot reasonably be cured within
thirty (30) days, then Tenant shall have such longer time as is reasonably
necessary provided Tenant commences to cure within ten (10) days after receipt
of written notice from Landlord and diligently prosecutes such cure to
completion within sixty (60) days of such notice; and

            (g) INSOLVENCY. The filing of a petition by or against Tenant (the
term "TENANT" shall include, for the purpose of this Section 17(g), any
guarantor of Tenant's obligations hereunder): (1) in any bankruptcy or other
insolvency proceeding; (2) seeking any relief under

                                      -23-

<PAGE>

any state or federal debtor relief law; (3) for the appointment of a liquidator
or receiver for all or substantially all of Tenant's property or for Tenant's
interest in this Lease; or (4) for the reorganization or modification of
Tenant's capital structure; however, if such a petition is filed against Tenant,
then such filing shall not be an Event of Default unless Tenant fails to have
the proceedings initiated by such petition dismissed within sixty (60) calendar
days after the filing thereof.

      18. REMEDIES. Upon any Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to all
other rights and remedies afforded Landlord hereunder or by law or equity, take
any one or more of the following actions:

            (a) TERMINATION OF LEASE. Terminate this Lease by giving Tenant
written notice thereof or by making entry thereon for the purposes of
terminating this Lease, and upon the delivery of such notice or the making of
such entry this Lease shall terminate, in which event Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the sum of: (1) all Rent accrued hereunder through the date of
termination; (2) all amounts due under Section 19(a); and (3) an amount equal to
(A) the total Rent that Tenant would have been required to pay for the remainder
of the Term discounted to present value at a per annum rate equal to the Prime
Rate ("PRIME RATE" shall be the per annum interest rate publicly announced by a
federally insured bank selected by Landlord in the state in which the Premises
is located as such bank's prime or base rate) minus one percent (1%), minus (B)
the then present fair rental value of the Premises for such period, similarly
discounted;

            (b) TERMINATION OF POSSESSION. Terminate Tenant's right to possess
the Premises without terminating this Lease by giving written notice thereof to
Tenant, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord: (1) all Rent and other
amounts accrued hereunder to the date of termination of possession; (2) all
amounts due from time to time under Section 19(a); and (3) all Rent and other
net sums required hereunder to be paid by Tenant during the remainder of the
Term, diminished by any net sums thereafter received by Landlord through
reletting the Premises during such period, after deducting all costs incurred by
Landlord in reletting the Premises. If Landlord elects to proceed under this
Section 18(b), Landlord may remove all of Tenant's property from the Premises
and store the same in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for
the account of, Tenant, without becoming liable for any loss or damage which may
be occasioned thereby, except for claims to the extent arising out of Landlord's
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Landlord shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to relet the Premises after Tenant vacates the Premises on
such terms as Landlord in its sole discretion may determine (including a term
different from the Term, rental concessions, and alterations to, and improvement
of, the Premises); however, Landlord shall not be obligated to: (i) solicit or
entertain negotiations with any other prospective tenants for the Premises until
Landlord obtains full and complete possession of the Premises, including,
without limitation, the final and unappealable legal right to re-let the
Premises free of any claim of Tenant, (ii) expend funds in connection with
reletting the Premises, (iii) relet the Premises before leasing other portions
of the Building or Project, (iv) accept any prospective tenant proposed by
Tenant unless such proposed tenant meets all of Landlord's leasing criteria, or
(v) lease the Premises for a rental less than the current fair market rental
then prevailing for similar office space in the Building. If Landlord markets
the Premises in the same manner which it markets other available similar
premises in the Building which are available for lease, then Landlord shall be
deemed to have satisfied its

                                      -24-

<PAGE>

obligations to use commercial reasonable efforts to relet the Premises. Landlord
shall not be liable for, nor shall Tenant's obligations hereunder be diminished
because of, Landlord's failure to relet the Premises or to collect rent due for
such reletting. Tenant shall not be entitled to the excess of any consideration
obtained by reletting over the Rent due hereunder. Reentry by Landlord in the
Premises shall not affect Tenant's obligations hereunder for the unexpired Term;
rather, Landlord may, from time to time, bring an action against Tenant to
collect amounts due by Tenant, without the necessity of Landlord's waiting until
the expiration of the Term. Unless Landlord delivers written notice to Tenant
expressly stating that it has elected to terminate this Lease, all actions taken
by Landlord to dispossess or exclude Tenant from the Premises shall be deemed to
be taken under this Section 18(b). If Landlord elects to proceed under this
Section 18(b), it may at any time elect to terminate this Lease under Section
18(a); or

            (c) PERFORM ACTS ON BEHALF OF TENANT. Perform any act Tenant is
obligated to perform under the terms of this Lease (and enter upon the Premises
in connection therewith if necessary) in Tenant's name and on Tenant's behalf,
without being liable for any claim for damages therefor, except for claims
arising out of Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct, and Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in
thus effecting compliance with Tenant's obligations under this Lease (including,
but not limited to, collection costs and legal expenses), plus interest thereon
at the Default Rate.

      19. PAYMENT BY TENANT; NON-WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES

            (a) PAYMENT BY TENANT. Upon any Event of Default, Tenant shall pay
to Landlord all costs incurred by Landlord (including court costs and reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses) in: (1) obtaining possession of the Premises; (2)
removing and storing Tenant's or any other occupant's property; (3) repairing,
restoring, altering, remodeling, or otherwise putting the Premises into
condition acceptable to a new tenant; (4) if Tenant is dispossessed of the
Premises and this Lease is not terminated, reletting all or any part of the
Premises (including brokerage commissions, cost of tenant finish work, and other
costs incidental to such reletting); (5) performing Tenant's obligations which
Tenant failed to perform; and (6) enforcing, or advising Landlord of, its
rights, remedies, and recourses arising out of the Event of Default. To the full
extent permitted by Law, Landlord and Tenant agree the federal and state courts
of the state in which the Premises are located shall have exclusive jurisdiction
over any matter relating to or arising from this Lease and the parties' rights
and obligations under this Lease.

            (b) NO WAIVER. Landlord's acceptance of Rent following an Event of
Default shall not waive Landlord's rights regarding such Event of Default. No
waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms contained
herein shall waive Landlord's rights regarding any future violation of such
term. Landlord's acceptance of any partial payment of Rent shall not waive
Landlord's rights with regard to the remaining portion of the Rent that is due,
regardless of any endorsement or other statement on any instrument delivered in
payment of Rent or any writing delivered in connection therewith; accordingly,
Landlord's acceptance of a partial payment of Rent shall not constitute an
accord and satisfaction of the full amount of the Rent that is due.

                                      -25-

<PAGE>

            (c) CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. Any and all remedies set forth in this
Lease: (1) shall be in addition to any and all other remedies Landlord may have
at law or in equity; (2) shall be cumulative; and (3) may be pursued
successively or concurrently as Landlord may elect. The exercise of any remedy
by Landlord shall not be deemed an election of remedies or preclude Landlord
from exercising any other remedies in the future.

      20. LANDLORD'S LIEN. Intentionally omitted.

      21. SURRENDER OF PREMISES. No act by Landlord shall be deemed an
acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a
surrender of the Premises shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by
Landlord. At the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver
to Landlord the Premises with all improvements located therein in good repair
and condition, free of Hazardous Materials placed on the Premises during the
Term by any Tenant Party, broom-clean, reasonable wear and tear (and
condemnation and Casualty damage, as to which Section 14 and Section 15 shall
control) excepted, and shall deliver to Landlord all keys to the Premises.
Tenant may remove all unattached trade fixtures, furniture, and personal
property placed in the Premises or elsewhere in the Building by Tenant (but
Tenant may not remove any such item which was paid for, in whole or in part, by
Landlord or any wiring or cabling unless Landlord requires such removal).
Additionally, at Landlord's option, Tenant shall (not later than ten (10) days
after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease) remove such
alterations, additions (including stairs and bank vaults), improvements, trade
fixtures, personal property, equipment, wiring, conduits, cabling and furniture
(including Tenant's Off-Premises Equipment) as Landlord may request.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord confirms that Tenant shall not be
required to remove any portion of the Premises as same currently exist on the
Execution Date. Tenant shall repair all damage caused by such removal. All items
not so removed shall within ten (10) days after Tenant's receipt of written
notice from Landlord, at Landlord's option, be deemed to have been abandoned by
Tenant and may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed, or otherwise disposed
of by Landlord at Tenant's cost without notice to Tenant and without any
obligation to account for such items. The provisions of this Section 21 shall
survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.

      22. HOLDING OVER.

      (a) Deleted Premises. If Tenant fails to vacate the Deleted Premises and
to deliver the Deleted Premises to Landlord on or before March 31, 2005, then
Tenant shall be deemed to be a tenant at sufferance with respect to the Deleted
Premises and, in addition to all other damages and remedies to which Landlord
may be entitled for such holding over, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a use and
occupation charge in the amount of $246.38 per day for each day of hold over in
the Deleted Premises.

      (b) Remainder Premises. If Tenant fails to vacate the Premises then
demised to Tenant at the end of the Term (i.e. the Remainder Premises and (if
applicable) the Additional Premises, then Tenant shall be a tenant at sufferance
and, in addition to all other damages and remedies to which Landlord may be
entitled for such holding over: (i) Tenant shall pay, in addition to the other
Rent, Base Rent equal to the greater of: (1) one hundred twenty-five (125%)
percent of the Base Rent and other charges payable during the last month of the
Term for the first

                                      -26-

<PAGE>

thirty (30) days of hold-over, one hundred fifty (150%) percent of the Base Rent
and other charges payable during the last month of the Term for any period of
hold-over for the second thirty (30) days of holdover and two hundred (200%)
percent of the Base Rent and other charges payable during the last month of the
Term for any period of holdover thereafter, or (2) one hundred twenty-five
(125%) percent of the prevailing rental rate in the Building for similar space;
and (ii) Tenant shall otherwise continue to be subject to all of Tenant's
obligations under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant holds
over in any portion of the Remainder Premises and (if applicable) the Additional
Premises with Landlord's express written consent, then Tenant shall be a

from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and liability
resulting from such failure, including any claims made by any succeeding tenant
founded upon such failure to surrender, and any lost profits to Landlord

remedial action by Tenant in response to the actual or alleged presence of any
Hazardous

                                      -28-

Indemnitees from and against all obligations (including removal and remedial

(including consequential and punitive damages), costs and expenses (including

the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

            (g) To the extent that the undertaking in the preceding paragraph

will contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy
under applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of all Hazardous Materials
Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.

            (h) All sums paid and costs incurred by Landlord with respect to any

and costs shall be immediately due and payable on demand.

      26. MISCELLANEOUS.

            (a) LANDLORD TRANSFER. Landlord may transfer any portion of the
Building and any of its rights under this Lease. If Landlord assigns its rights
under this Lease, then Landlord shall thereby be released from any further
obligations hereunder arising after the date of transfer, provided that the
assignee assumes Landlord's obligations hereunder in writing.

            (b) LANDLORD'S LIABILITY. The liability of Landlord and its managing
agent (and their respective partners, shareholders, members, officers, directors
or employees) to Tenant (or any person or entity claiming by, through or under
Tenant) for any default by Landlord under the terms of this Lease or any matter
relating to or arising out of the occupancy or use of the Premises and/or other
areas of the Building or Project shall be limited to Tenant's actual direct, but
not consequential, indirect or incidental damages therefor and shall be
recoverable only from the interest of Landlord in the Building, and Landlord and
its managing agent (and their respective partners, shareholders, members,
officers, directors or employees) shall not be personally liable for any
deficiency. Additionally, to the extent allowed by Law, Tenant hereby waives any
statutory lien it may have against Landlord or its assets, including without
limitation, the Building.

            (c) FORCE MAJEURE. Other than for Tenant's obligations under this
Lease that can be performed by the payment of money (e.g., payment of Rent and
maintenance of insurance), whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for
action to be taken by either party hereto, such party shall not be liable or
responsible for, and there shall be excluded from the computation of any such
period of time, any delays due to strikes, riots, acts of God, shortages of
labor or materials, war, governmental laws, regulations, or restrictions, or any
other causes of any kind whatsoever which are beyond the control of such party.

            (d) BROKERAGE. Neither Landlord nor Tenant has dealt with any broker
or agent in connection with the negotiation or execution of this Lease, other
than as set forth in the Basic Lease Information. Tenant shall indemnify, defend
and hold Landlord harmless from and

                                      -30-
<PAGE>

against all costs, expenses, attorneys' fees, liens and other liability for
commissions or other compensation claimed by any broker or agent claiming the
same by, through, or under Tenant. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.

            (e) ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. From time to time, Tenant shall furnish
to any party designated by Landlord, within ten (10) business days after
Landlord has made a request therefor, a certificate signed by Tenant confirming
and containing such factual certifications and representations as to this Lease
as Landlord may reasonably request. Unless otherwise required by Landlord's
Mortgagee or a prospective purchaser or mortgagee of the Building, the initial
form of estoppel certificate to be signed by Tenant is attached hereto as
Exhibit G.

            (f) NOTICES. All notices and other communications given pursuant to
this Lease shall be in writing and shall be: (1) mailed by first class, United
States Mail, postage prepaid, certified, with return receipt requested, and

Information; (2) hand delivered to the intended addressee; (3) sent by a
nationally recognized overnight courier service; or (4) sent by facsimile

deposit in the United States mail. The parties hereto may change their addresses
by giving notice thereof to the other in conformity with this provision.

            (g) SEPARABILITY. If any clause or provision of this Lease is
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws, then the
remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby and in lieu of such clause
or provision, there shall be added as a part of this Lease a clause or provision
as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable clause or
provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable.

            (h) AMENDMENTS; BINDING EFFECT. This Lease may not be amended except
by instrument in writing signed by Landlord and Tenant. No provision of this
Lease shall be deemed to have been waived unless such waiver is in writing
signed by the party who is alleged to have waived such provision, and no custom
or practice which may evolve between the parties in the administration of the
terms hereof shall waive or diminish the right of either party to insist upon
the performance by the other party in strict accordance with the terms hereof.
The terms and conditions contained in this Lease shall inure to the benefit of
and be binding upon the parties hereto, and upon their respective successors in
interest and legal representatives, except as otherwise herein expressly
provided. This Lease is for the sole benefit of Landlord and Tenant, and, other
than Landlord's Mortgagee, no third party shall be deemed a third party
beneficiary hereof.

            (i) QUIET ENJOYMENT. Provided Tenant has performed all of its
obligations hereunder, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the
Premises for the Term, without hindrance from Landlord or any party claiming by,
through, or under Landlord, but not otherwise, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Lease.

                                      -31-
<PAGE>

            (j) NO MERGER. There shall be no merger of the leasehold estate
hereby created with the fee estate in the Premises or any part thereof if the
same person acquires or holds, directly or indirectly, this Lease or any
interest in this Lease and the fee estate in the leasehold Premises or any
interest in such fee estate.

            (k) NO OFFER. The submission of this Lease to Tenant shall not be
construed as an offer, and Tenant shall not have any rights under this Lease
unless Landlord executes a copy of this Lease and delivers it to Tenant.

            (l) ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Lease constitutes the entire agreement
between Landlord and Tenant regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes
all oral statements and prior writings relating thereto. Except for those set
forth in this Lease, no representations, warranties, or agreements have been
made by Landlord or Tenant to the other with respect to this Lease or the
obligations of Landlord or Tenant in connection therewith. The normal rule of
construction that any ambiguities be resolved against the drafting party shall
not apply to the interpretation of this Lease or any exhibits or amendments
hereto.

            (m) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW,
LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION OR
TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR WITH
RESPECT TO THIS LEASE OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR
DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO.

            (n) GOVERNING LAW. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises are located.

            (o) RECORDING. Tenant shall not record this Lease or any memorandum
of this Lease without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may
be withheld or denied in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord, and any
recordation by Tenant shall be a material breach of this Lease. Tenant grants to
Landlord a power of attorney to execute and record a release releasing any such
recorded instrument of record that was recorded without the prior written
consent of Landlord, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is
non-revocable during the Term.

            (p) JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. If Tenant is comprised of more than
one (1) party, each such party shall be jointly and severally liable for
Tenant's obligations under this Lease. All unperformed obligations of Tenant
hereunder not fully performed at the end of the Term shall survive the end of
the Term, including payment obligations with respect to Rent and all obligations
concerning the condition and repair of the Premises.

            (q) FINANCIAL REPORTS. Within fifteen (15) days after Landlord's
request, Tenant will furnish Tenant's most recent audited financial statements
(including any notes to them) to Landlord, or, if no such audited statements
have been prepared, such other financial statements (and notes to them) as may
have been prepared by an independent certified public accountant or, failing
those, Tenant's internally prepared financial statements. If Tenant is a
publicly traded

                                      -32-
<PAGE>

corporation, Tenant may satisfy its obligations hereunder by providing to
Landlord Tenant's most recent annual and quarterly reports. Tenant will discuss
its financial statements with Landlord and, following the occurrence of an Event
of Default hereunder, will give Landlord access to Tenant's books and records in
order to enable Landlord to verify the financial statements. Landlord will not
disclose any aspect of Tenant's financial statements that Tenant designates to
Landlord as confidential except: (1) to Landlord's Mortgagee or prospective
mortgagees or purchasers of the Building; (2) in litigation between Landlord and
Tenant; and (3) if required by court order. Tenant shall not be required to
deliver the financial statements required under this Section 26(q) more than
once in any twelve (12) month period unless requested by Landlord's Mortgagee or
a prospective buyer or lender of the Building or an Event of Default occurs.

            (r) LANDLORD'S FEES. Whenever Tenant requests Landlord to take any
action not required of it hereunder or give any consent required or permitted
under this Lease, Tenant will reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable,
out-of-pocket costs payable to third parties and incurred by Landlord in
reviewing the proposed action or consent, including reasonable attorneys',
engineers' or architects' fees, within thirty (30) days after Landlord's
delivery to Tenant of a statement of such costs, provided, however, Landlord
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice to Tenant of
such costs so that Tenant may determine whether to proceed with such action or
request for consent. Tenant will be obligated to make such reimbursement without
regard to whether Landlord consents to any such proposed action.

            (s) TELECOMMUNICATIONS. Tenant and its telecommunications companies,
including local exchange telecommunications companies and alternative access
vendor services companies, shall have no right of access to and within the
Building, for the installation and operation of telecommunications systems,
including voice, video, data, Internet, and any other services provided over
wire, fiber optic, microwave, wireless, and any other transmission systems
("TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES"), for part or all of Tenant's telecommunications
within the Building and from the Building to any other location without
Landlord's prior written consent. All providers of Telecommunications Services
shall be required to comply with the rules and regulations of the Building,
applicable Laws and Landlord's policies and practices for the Building. Tenant
acknowledges that Landlord shall not be required to provide or arrange for any
Telecommunications Services and that Landlord shall have no liability to any
Tenant Party in connection with the installation, operation or maintenance of
Telecommunications Services or any equipment or facilities relating thereto.
Tenant, at its cost and for its own account, shall be solely responsible for
obtaining all Telecommunications Services.

            (t) CONFIDENTIALITY. Landlord and Tenant agree to hold the terms of
this Lease in strict confidence, and will not disclose, except for any
disclosure required by Laws, such terms to any person other than the respective
partners, directors, officers, employees, attorneys, accountants or financing
sources of Landlord and Tenant, without the prior written consent of the other
party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may disclose any information in
public notices required by Laws or otherwise traditionally made by entities
similar to Landlord or Tenant and the financial community. In addition, nothing
herein shall prohibit disclosure of the

                                      -33-
<PAGE>

terms of this Lease: (x) in any litigation between the parties, (y) where
required by court order, or (z) where required by order of governmental
authority.

            (u) AUTHORITY. Tenant (if a corporation, partnership or other
business entity) hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant is a
duly formed and existing entity qualified to do business in the state in which
the Premises are located, that Tenant has full right and authority to execute
and deliver this Lease, and that each person signing on behalf of Tenant is
authorized to do so.

                                    EXHIBIT C

                      ADDITIONAL RENT, TAXES, AND INSURANCE

      1. ADDITIONAL RENT.

      Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount (per each rentable square foot in
the Premises) ("ADDITIONAL RENT") by which the annual Operating Costs (defined
below) per rentable square foot in the Building for each year of the Term exceed
the annual Operating Costs per rentable square foot in the Building for calendar
year 2005 (the "BASE YEAR"). Landlord may make a good faith estimate of the
Additional Rent to be due by Tenant for any calendar year or part thereof during
the Term. During each calendar year or partial calendar year of the Term after
the Base Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in advance concurrently with each
monthly installment of Base Rent, an amount equal to the estimated Additional
Rent for such calendar year or part thereof divided by the number of months
therein. From time to time, Landlord may estimate and re-estimate the Additional
Rent to be due by Tenant and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to
Tenant. Thereafter, the monthly installments of Additional Rent payable by
Tenant shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so
that, by the end of the calendar year in question, Tenant shall have paid all of
the Additional Rent as estimated by Landlord. Any amounts paid based on such an
estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein provided when actual Operating
Costs are available for each calendar year. Operating Costs for the Base Year,
for the purpose of comparisons of the Base Year with subsequent years only,
shall be calculated so as to not include market-wide labor-rate increases due to
extraordinary circumstances, including boycotts and strikes; utility rate
increases due to extraordinary circumstances, including conservation surcharges,
boycotts, embargos or other shortages; or amortized costs relating to capital
improvements.

      2. OPERATING COSTS. The term "OPERATING COSTS" shall mean all expenses and
disbursements (subject to the limitations set forth below) that Landlord incurs
in connection with the ownership, operation, and maintenance of the Project,
determined in accordance with sound accounting principles consistently applied,
including the following costs: (a) wages and salaries of all on-site employees
engaged in the management, operation, maintenance, repair or security of the
Project, excluding any employee above the level of Property Manager (together
with Landlord's reasonable allocation of expenses of off-site employees who
perform a portion of their services in connection with the operation,
maintenance or security of the Project), including taxes, insurance and benefits
relating thereto; (b) all supplies and materials used in the operation,
maintenance, repair, replacement, and security of the Project; (c) costs for
improvements made to the Project which, although capital in nature, are (i)
expected to reduce the normal operating costs (including all utility costs) of
the Project as amortized using a commercially reasonable interest rate over the
time period reasonably estimated by Landlord to recover the costs thereof taking
into consideration the anticipated cost savings, as determined by Landlord using
its good faith, commercially reasonable judgment, as well as (ii) capital
improvements made in order to comply with any Law hereafter promulgated by any
governmental authority or any interpretation hereafter rendered with respect to
any existing Law, as amortized using a commercially reasonable interest rate
over the useful economic life of such improvements as determined by Landlord in
its reasonable discretion, as well as (iii) capital improvements made to improve
the health, safety and welfare of the Building and its occupants, as amortized
using a commercially

                                       C-1
<PAGE>

reasonable interest rate over the useful economic life of such improvements as
determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion; (d) cost of all utilities;
(e) repairs, replacements (subject to the provisions of this Section 2), and
general maintenance of the Project; (f) fair market rental and other costs with
respect to the management office for the Building or Project, if any; and (g)
service, maintenance and management contracts with independent contractors for
the operation, maintenance, management, repair, replacement (subject to the
provisions of this Section 2), or security of the Project, as applicable. If the
Building is part of a Project, Operating Costs may be prorated among the Project
and the other buildings of the Project, as reasonably determined by Landlord,
and (h) all premiums and costs incurred by Landlord in connection with
Insurance, as hereinafter defined, for the Project. "INSURANCE" shall mean
property, liability and other insurance covered by Landlord, including without
limitation, deductibles and risk retention programs and an allocation of a
portion of the cost of blanket insurance policies maintained by Landlord and/or
its affiliates.

      Operating Costs shall not include costs for: (1) repair, replacements and
general maintenance paid by proceeds of insurance or by Tenant or other third
parties; (2) interest, amortization or other payments on loans to Landlord; (3)
depreciation; (4) leasing commissions; (5) legal expenses for services, other
than those that benefit the Project tenants, as applicable (e.g., tax disputes);
(6) renovating or otherwise improving leased premises of the Project or vacant
space in the Project; (7) Taxes and Insurance which are paid separately pursuant
to Sections 3 and 4 below; (8) federal income taxes imposed on or measured by
the income of Landlord from the operation of the Project, (9) costs, expenses,
depreciation or amortization for capital repairs or capital replacements, except
as provided above; (10) costs of Landlord's original acquisition of the Building
or costs incurred by Landlord for subsequent acquisitions of adjacent
properties; (11) paving of new or additional parking areas not in existence as
of the Commencement Date; (12) penalties or damages incurred due to or in
connection with Landlord's breach of its obligations under this Lease; (13)
penalties, damages or fines incurred in connection with any violation of or
failure to comply with applicable laws, rules, regulations or ordinances issued
or promulgated by any applicable governmental authority and relating to the
Common Areas or Building; (14) costs resulting from the removal, encapsulation
or monitoring of any hazardous materials located in the Project, which presence
is directly caused by Landlord's willful misconduct or negligence; (15) wages,
salaries or other compensation paid to any employee above the grade of Property
Manager; (16) reserves of any kind; (17) any increase in insurance premiums to
the extent such increase is solely caused by or is attributable to any tenant
other than Tenant; and (18) any operating expense representing an amount paid to
a corporation, entity or person related to Landlord which is in excess of the
amount which would have been paid in the absence of such relationship.

      3. TAXES. Tenant shall also pay Tenant's Proportionate Share of any
increase in Taxes for each year and partial year falling within the Term over
the Taxes for the Base Year. Taxes for the Base Year shall be fiscal/tax year
2005 (i.e., July 1, 2004 - June 30, 2005). Tenant shall pay Tenant's
Proportionate Share of Taxes in the same manner as provided above for Tenant's
Proportionate Share of Operating Costs. "TAXES" shall mean taxes, assessments,
and governmental charges or fees whether federal, state, county or municipal,
and whether they be by taxing districts or authorities presently taxing or by
others, subsequently created or otherwise, and any other taxes and assessments
(including non-governmental assessments for common charges under a restrictive
covenant or other private agreement that are not treated as part of

                                      C-2
<PAGE>

Operating Costs) now or hereafter attributable to the Project (or its
operation), excluding, however, penalties and interest thereon and federal and
state taxes on income (if the present method of taxation changes so that in lieu
of or in addition to the whole or any part of any Taxes, there is levied on
Landlord a capital tax directly on the rents received therefrom or a franchise
tax, assessment, or charge based, in whole or in part, upon such rents for the
Project, then all such taxes, assessments, or charges, or the part thereof so
based, shall be deemed to be included within the term "Taxes" for purposes
hereof). Taxes shall include the costs of consultants retained in an effort to
lower taxes and all costs incurred in disputing any taxes or in seeking to lower
the tax valuation of the Project. For property tax purposes, to the extent
allowed by Law, Tenant waives all rights to protest or appeal the appraised
value of the Premises, as well as the Project, and all rights to receive notices
of reappraisement.

      4. OPERATING COSTS AND TAX STATEMENT. Landlord shall maintain separate and
complete books and records accurately reflecting Landlord's calculation of the
Operating Costs for each calendar year, or partial calendar year, falling within
the term hereof and shall retain the same for at least two years after the end
of such calendar year. By May 1 of each calendar year, or as soon thereafter as
practicable, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of Operating Costs for
the previous year, adjusted as provided in Section 6 of this Exhibit, and of the
Taxes for the previous year (the "OPERATING COSTS AND TAX STATEMENT"). If
Tenant's estimated payments of Operating Costs or Taxes under this Exhibit C for
the year covered by the Operating Costs and Tax Statement exceed Tenant's share
of such items as indicated in the Operating Costs and Tax Statement, then
Landlord shall promptly credit or reimburse Tenant for such excess; likewise, if
Tenant's estimated payments of Operating Costs and Taxes under this Exhibit C
for such year are less than Tenant's share of such items as indicated in the
Operating Costs and Tax Statement, then Tenant shall promptly pay Landlord such
deficiency, notwithstanding that the Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the
Premises.

      5. GROSS-UP. With respect to any calendar year (including the Base Year)
or partial calendar year (including the Base Year) in which the Building is not
occupied to the extent of 100% of the rentable area thereof, or Landlord is not
supplying services to 100% of the rentable area thereof, the Operating Costs for
such period shall, for the purposes hereof, be increased to the amount which
would have been incurred had the Building or Project, as applicable, been
occupied to the extent of 100% of the rentable area thereof and Landlord had
been supplying services to 100% of the rentable area thereof.

      6. AUDIT. Within one hundred eighty (180) days (the "AUDIT ELECTION
PERIOD") after Landlord furnishes to Tenant the Operating Costs, Tax and
Insurance Statement for any calendar year (including the Base Year), Tenant may,
at its expense during Landlord's normal business hours, elect to audit
Landlord's Operating Costs, Taxes and Insurance for such calendar year only,
subject to the following conditions: (1) there is no uncured Event of Default
under this Lease; (2) the audit shall be prepared by an independent certified
public accounting firm of recognized national standing; (3) in no event shall
any audit be performed by a firm retained on a "contingency fee" basis; (4) the
audit shall commence within thirty (30) days after Landlord makes Landlord's
books and records available to Tenant's auditor and shall conclude within sixty
(60) days after commencement; (5) the audit shall be conducted where Landlord
maintains its books and records and shall not unreasonably interfere with the
conduct of Landlord's business; and (6) Tenant and its accounting firm shall
treat any audit in a confidential manner

                                       C-3
<PAGE>

and shall each execute Landlord's confidentiality agreement for Landlord's
benefit prior to commencing the audit. Tenant shall deliver a copy of such audit
to Landlord within five (5) business days of receipt by Tenant. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Tenant shall have no right to conduct an audit if Landlord
furnishes to Tenant an audit report for the calendar year in question prepared
by an independent certified public accounting firm of recognized national
standing (whether originally prepared for Landlord or another party). This
paragraph shall not be construed to limit, suspend, or abate Tenant's obligation
to pay Rent when due, including estimated Operating Costs, Taxes and Insurance.
After verification, Landlord shall credit any overpayment determined by the
audit report against the next Rent due and owing by Tenant or, if no further
Rent is due, refund such overpayment directly to Tenant within thirty (30) days
of determination. Likewise, Tenant shall pay Landlord any underpayment
determined by the audit report within thirty (30) days of determination. The
foregoing obligations shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the
Lease. If Tenant does not give written notice of its election to audit during
the Audit Election Period, Landlord's Operating Costs, Taxes and Insurance for
the applicable calendar year shall be deemed approved for all purposes, and
Tenant shall have no further right to review or contest the same. If the audit
proves that Landlord's calculation of Operating Costs, Taxes and Insurance for
the calendar year under inspection was overstated by more than five percent (5%)
in the aggregate, then, after verification, Landlord shall pay Tenant's actual
reasonable out-of-pocket audit and inspection fees applicable to the review of
said calendar year statement within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant's
invoice therefor.

Remainder Premises from the Deleted Premises ("Landlord's Work"). Subject to
delays caused by Tenant, or Tenant's agents, employees or contractors, Landlord
shall use reasonable efforts to substantially complete Landlord's Work on or
before March 31, 2005, and Landlord shall coordinate the time of performance of
Landlord's Work with Tenant in order to minimize any disruption of Tenant's
business, provided however, that: (i) Tenant shall not be entitled to any
diminution in rental value on account of the performance of Landlord's Work, and
(ii) in no event shall Landlord have any liability to Tenant based upon the
performance of Landlord's Work.

            and without causing discomfort, inconvenience, or annoyance to any

                  the cost of which shall be reimbursed by the Tenant.

               twenty-four (24) hours notice before proceeding with Special
               Work, as hereinafter defined, and such Special Work will be
               permitted only at times agreed to by the Building Manager during
               periods outside of Regular Business Hours. Tenant shall pay for
               all additional supervisory and other premium costs incurred by
               Landlord as the result of any such Special Work. "Special Work"

               (1) All utility disruptions, shutoffs and turnovers;

               (2) Activities involving high levels of noise, including
               demolition, coring, drilling and ramsetting;

               (3) Activities resulting in excessive dust or odors, including

               (4) Any other work which Tenant proposes to perform outside of
               Regular Business Hours.

            c. If coordination, labor disputes or other circumstances require,
               the Construction Coordinator may change the hours during which
               regular construction work can be scheduled and/or restrict or
               refuse entry to and exit from the Building by any Contractor.

5.    CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL

      5.1   Work in Harmony

            a. All Contractors shall be responsible for employing skilled and
            competent personnel and suppliers who shall abide by the
            Supplemental Conditions herein set forth as amended from time to
            time by Landlord.

            b. No Tenant shall at any time, either directly or indirectly,
            employ, permit the employment, or continue the employment of any
            Contractor if such employment or continued employment will or does
            interfere or cause any labor disharmony, coordination difficulty,
            delay or conflict with any other contractors engaged in construction
            work in or about the Building.

            c. Should a work stoppage or other action occur anywhere in or about
            the Building as a result of the presence, anywhere in the Building,
            of a Contractor

                                      J-4
<PAGE>

            engaged directly or indirectly by a Tenant, or should such
            Contractor be deemed by Landlord to have violated by applicable
            rules or regulations, then upon twelve hours written notice,
            Landlord may, without incurring any liability to Tenant or said
            contractor, require any such Contractor to vacate the premises
            demised by such Tenant and the Building, and to cease all further
            construction work therein.

            d. The failure of Landlord or the Construction Coordinator to
            disapprove a proposed contractor which is, in fact, a Contractor not
            employing Union labor, shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of
            this provision since Landlord and the Construction Coordinator may
            be unable to determine readily whether a proposed contractor employs
            such labor.

            e. In the employment of all workmen by any Contractor, working
            arrangements generally accepted and prevailing on so-called Union
            jobs in the Boston area shall be complied with.

            f. Tenant shall use, and Tenant shall require the Contractor to use
            his best efforts to prevent work stoppages on the Premises, or
            elsewhere in the Building, to the extent attributable to work being
            performed on the Premises, irrespective of the reason for any such
            stoppage, in recognition of the fact that it is of the utmost
            importance to Landlord and all those occupying space in the Building
            that there be no interruption in the progress of the work. Tenant's
            agreement to utilize one hundred percent (100%) Union labor in
            Tenant's work, and its performance of such obligation, shall not be
            treated as, by the fact, compliance with this requirement.

      5.2   Conduct

            a. Tradespersons shall wear clothing suitable for their work and
            shall remain fully attired at all times. All Contractors will be
            responsible for their Tradespersons' proper behavior and conduct.

            b. The Construction Coordinator reserves the right to remove anyone
            who, or any Contractor which is causing a disturbance to any Tenant
            or Occupant of the Building or any other person using or servicing
            the Building; is interfering with the work of others; or is in any
            other way displaying conduct or performance not compatible with the
            Landlord's standards. Tenant shall exonerate, indemnify and hold
            Landlord and the Construction Coordinator harmless from any loss,
            cost, damages, or liability incurred by reason of compliance with
            any such demand.

      5.3   Access

            a. All Contractors and Tradespersons shall contact the Construction
            Coordinator prior to commencing work, to confirm work location and
            Building access, including elevator usage and times of operation.
            Access to the Building before and after Regular Business Hours or
            any other hours designated from time

                                      J-5
<PAGE>

            to time by the Building Manager and all day on weekends and holidays
            will only be provided when twenty-four (24) hours advance notice is
            given to the Construction Coordinator.

            b. No Contractor or Tradesperson will be permitted to enter any
            private or public space in the Building except through entrances
            designated by the Construction Coordinator.

            fire access lanes, or any private ways in or surrounding the
            property. Vehicles so parked will be towed at the expense of the

            a. All deliveries of construction materials shall be made at the
            predetermined times approved by the Construction Coordinator and

      6.2   Transportation in Building

            a. Distribution of materials from delivery point to the work area in

            such areas. Protective measures shall include runners over carpet,
            padding in elevators and any other measures determined by the
            Construction Coordinator.

            c. Any damage caused to the Building through the movement of
            construction materials or otherwise shall be the responsibility of

            rules and regulations are complied with, and (iii) all necessary
            permits have been obtained. All necessary precautions shall be taken
            by the Contractor handling such materials against damage or injury
            caused by such materials.

            c. All materials required for the construction of the premises must
            conform with the plans and specifications approved by Landlord, and
            must be installed in the locations shown on the drawings approved by
            the Landlord.

            d. All work shall be subject to reasonable supervision and

            Conditions. At the time that such changes are prepared by the Tenant
            and approved by Landlord, Tenant shall submit such approved changes
            to the Construction Coordinator. At the time that any shop drawing

            approved by the Construction Coordinator.

            g. It is the responsibility of Contractors to ensure that the
            temporary placement of materials does not impose a hazard to the
            Building or its occupants, either through overloading, or
            interference with Building systems, access, egress or in any other
            manner whatsoever.

            arrangements with the Construction Coordinator for the scheduling
            and location of an additional dumpster to be supplied at the cost of
            the Tenant engaging such Contractor. Where, in the opinion of the
            Construction Coordinator, such arrangements are not practical, such

            cost of the Tenants engaging such Contractors.

            b. Toxic or flammable waste is to be properly removed daily and

            item. At the election of Construction Coordinator, Contractors shall
            deliver any such items to the Construction Coordinator. Such items
            will be delivered, without cost, to an area designated by the

      or contractors, Tenant shall give immediate notice of such lien to the
