     COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.

     (a) Lessee acknowledges that the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
and the Fair Housing Act of 1968 (collectively, as amended and as  supplemented
by further laws from time to time, the "Acts") imposes certain requirements upon
the owners, lessees and operators of commercial facilities and places of public
accommodation, including, without limitation, prohibitions on discrimination
against any individual on the basis of disability (which discrimination
includes certain failures to design and construct facilities for first occupancy
that are  readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities and
certain failures,  when making alterations affecting the usability of a
facility, to make the same in  such a manner that such altered portions are
readily accessible to and usable by  individuals with disabilities).
Accordingly, but without limiting the generality of  Sections 10 and 11 of the
Lease and in addition to all other 

                                                                  Please Initial

requirements under and notwithstanding any other provision of the Lease, Lessee
agrees to take all proper and necessary action to cause the Premises to be
maintained, used and occupied in compliance with the Acts and, further, to
otherwise assume all responsibility to ensure the Premises' continued compliance
with all provisions of the Acts throughout the Term.

     (b)    Without limiting its obligations under Section 10 of the Lease,
Lessee covenants and agrees to comply with all laws, rules, regulations and
guidelines now or hereafter made applicable to the Premises by government or
other public authorities respecting the disposal of waste, trash, garbage and
other matter (liquid or solid), generated by Lessee, its employees, agents,
contractors, invitees, licensees, guests and visitors, the disposal of which is
not otherwise the express obligation of Lessor under this Lease, including, but
not limited to, laws, rules, regulations and guidelines respecting recycling and
other forms of reclamation (all of which are herein collectively referred to as
"Waste Management  Requirements"). Lessee covenants and agrees to comply with
all rules and  regulations established by Lessor to enable Lessor from time to
time to comply with  Waste Management Requirements applicable to Lessor (i) as
owner of the  Premises and (ii) in performing Lessors obligations under this
Lease, if any.  Upon receipt of written notice informing Lessor of any violation
of such Waste  Management Requirements by other tenants or occupants of the
Building, Lessor  shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce its rules
and regulations  against such tenants or occupants of the Building; however,
Lessor shall in no  event be obligated to (i) incur costs and expenses or (ii)
to enter into litigation  with other tenants or occupants of the Building to
enforce such rules and  regulations.


     PARKING.     During the Extended Term of the Lease, Lessee shall have the
     -------

Commercial on behalf of Lessee, and on behalf of Lessor, no real estate  broker,
agent or finder negotiated or was instrumental in the negotiation or
representation of Lessee in connection with this Amendment. Lessor agrees to pay
a commission or fee owed to CB Commercial pursuant to the terms of a separate
agreement between Lessor and CB Commercial. In addition, in the event of a
claim for brokers fee, finder's fee, commission or other similar compensation in
connection herewith other than to CB Commercial, Lessee hereby agrees to
protect, defend and indemnify Lessor against and hold Lessor harmless from any
and all damages, liabilities, costs, expenses and losses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) which Lessor may sustain or
incur  by reason of such claim, and Lessor, if such claim is based upon any
agreement  alleged to have been made by Lessor, hereby agrees to protect and
indemnify  Lessee against and hold Lessee harmless from any and all damages,
liabilities,  costs, expenses and losses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees  and costs) which Lessee may sustain or incur by
reason of such claim. The  provisions of this section shall survive the
termination of this Amendment.

                                                                  Please Initial
