                    effect. The receipt by the Landlord of rent, with knowledge
                    of the breach of any covenant hereof, shall not be deemed a
                    waiver of such breach and no waiver by the Landlord of any
                    provision hereof shall be deemed to have been made unless

  FROM OTHERS       herein  against   assignment  and   under-letting,   or  the
                    acceptance  of the  assignee,  under-tenant  or  occupant as
                    tenant,  or  a  release  of  the  Tenant  from  the  further

                         TWENTY-FIRST.--Landlord shall not be liable for failure
                    to give possession of the premises upon commencement date by

                         THE TENANT FURTHER  COVENANTS:

                    business  upon  or use of the  demised  premises,  the  fire
  INCREASED        insurance rate shall at any time be higher than it otherwise
  FIRE INSURANCE    would be, then the Tenant will  reimburse the  Landlord,  as
  RATE              additional  rent  hereunder,  for  that  part  of  all  fire
                    insurance  premiums hereafter paid out by the Landlord which
                    shall  have been  charged  because  of the  conduct  of such
                    business  not so  permitted,  or because of the  improper or
                    careless  conduct of any business upon or use of the demised
                    premises,  and will make such  reimbursement  upon the first
                    day of the month following such outlay by the Landlord;  but
                    this  covenant  shall not apply to a premium  for any period
                    beyond  the  expiration  date of  this  lease,  first  above
                    specified.  In any action or proceeding wherein the Landlord

                    the  building on the demised  premises,  purporting  to have
                    been issued by New York Fire  Insurance  Exchange,  or other

                    the  consumption  of water,  as and when bills  therefor are
                    rendered.  If the demised premises,  or any part thereof, be
                    supplied  with water  through a meter which  supplies  other
                    premises,  the Tenant will pay to the Landlord,  as and when

                    area in the building (exclusive of the basement) which shall
                    have been  occupied  during  the  period  of the  respective
                    charges,  taking  into  account the period that each part of
                    such area was  occupied.  Tenant agrees to pay as additional
  SEWER             rent the Tenant's proportionate part, determined as

                    and will pay the  Landlord  for the same,  as the  amount of
                    consumption  shall  be  indicated  by  the  meter  furnished
                    therefor.  The price for said  current  shall be the same as

Tenants'  own  cost  and  expense,  secure  and pay for  all  interior  repairs,
replacements,  utilities,  maintenance  and services  required by Tenants or for
preservation  of the  demised  premises,  including,  but not  limited  to: gas,

Except as expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord shall have no obligation to
furnish or perform interior repairs,  maintenance or services; provided however,
that Landlord shall be responsible for so-called  "structural" repairs,  defined
as exterior  walls,  structural  members and  foundation.  As  designated in the
within paragraph,  "utilities"  refers solely to those utilities consumed by the
within  Tenant;  i.e.  the within  Tenant shall have no  responsibility  for the
utilities  consumed  by other  Tenants  in the  building  in which  the  demised
premises are located.

     2.  Anything  herein to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  Tenants are hereby
given permission to erect any sign or signs in and about the demised premises at
Tenant's own cost and expense, provided: (a) Any such sign shall comply with all
rules and regulations of any governmental authority having jurisdiction thereof;
(b) Said sign or signs shall be installed without damage to Landlord's  building
including  signs on each exterior  wall; (c) Upon the removal of any such signs,
all damage occasioned  thereby shall be repaired by Tenants at Tenants' own cost
and expense.

     3.  Tenants  shall  secure,  pay for and  maintain  during the term of this
Lease,   a   policy   of   general   liability   insurance,    (having   limits:
$1,000,000/2,000,000  for bodily  injury;  $100,000 for property  damage) from a
financially  responsible  insurer  licensed  to do  business in the State of New
York; which said policy shall name as protected, the Tenants and Landlord as the
fee owner, as their  respective  interests  shall appear,  and any other parties
designated by Tenants,  and shall contain a waiver of subrogation as against the
Landlord as fee owner.  Tenants shall  deliver to the Landlord a certificate  of
such insurance  policy on or before the beginning of the term of this Lease.  In

for such policy and to provide a certificate thereof to Landlord,  Landlord may,
in Landlord's  sole  discretion,  order such policy and the premium cost thereof
shall be due from Tenant as additional  rent  hereunder or Landlord may elect to
treat such failure as a default  hereunder,  in which case,  Tenant  agrees such
default is a material default of the Lease.

insurance policy shall be issued in the name of Landlord,  Tenant and Landlord's
lender, if any, now or in the future,  as their interests appear.  The insurance
policy shall provide that any proceeds  shall be made payable to the Landlord or
Landlord's  lender,  as Landlord may designate.  The Tenant agrees to assign and
deliver at the  commencement of this Lease said insurance policy to the Landlord
and the said policy and renewal  thereof shall be held by said Landlord.  In the
event the  Tenants  do not pay the  premiums  as they  fall due on said  policy,
Landlord shall have the option of paying said premiums on behalf of Tenants, and
adding the cost thereof to the next month's rent due Landlord under the terms of
this Lease as additional rent and to collect same as "additional rent".

     The  foregoing   insurance  policy  shall  provide  that  no  modification,
termination or  cancellation  thereof shall be effective until after thirty [30]
days  prior  written  notice  has been given to the  Landlord  by the  insurance
carrier, certified mail, return receipt.

     If any  extraordinary  or  excessive  insurance  premium cost is charged to
Landlord  as the  result of the  nature  of  Tenant's  business,  or its use and
occupancy of the demised  premises or an  installation,  condition or alteration
made or maintained by Tenant  therein,  the full cost of such excess  premium or
extraordinary  charge  shall  be borne by and paid by  Tenant.  The  finding  or
"make-up" of rate established by the New York Fire Rating  Organization [or such
other agency having  jurisdiction and responsibility for rating the building for
insurance purposes] shall be admissible as evidence in any action and proceeding
and shall be deemed  conclusive  evidence of the facts therein stated and of the
items and charges  then  applicable  to the  building  and the demised  premises
located therein. The total costs of insurance and the totality of coverage shall
not exceed that which is reasonable and customary.

responsible to the Tenants for the safekeeping of any goods or other property of
the Tenant,  nor for injury to any person or persons or any damage to or loss of
merchandise or other property of the Tenants  occasioned by theft,  fire, water,
power  failure,  accident  or the  bursting,  leaking or running in the  demised
premises of any plumbing,  heating, electrical apparatus, gas, steam or pipes of
any nature, or from any other cause whatsoever;  and except for injury,  loss or
damage  due  to  Landlord's   negligence,   anything   herein  to  the  contrary
notwithstanding,  the Tenant, for itself and its insurers,  releases Landlord of
and from any and all such liability and responsibility.

     7. It is understood  and agreed that under any and all  circumstances,  the
liability of the Landlord  shall not be personal  and  whenever  Tenants,  their
agents,  servants or employees seek or recover any money judgment or other award
of damages against the Landlord from any Court,  administrative body or tribunal
of  competent  jurisdiction,  that  satisfaction  thereof  shall be  solely  and
expressly  limited  to levy  of  execution  against  and  collection  out of the
interest  of the  Landlord in and to the  demised  premises  and/or the land and
building  of which  the  demised  premises  forms a part,  and the  Tenants  for
themselves,  their agents, servant and employees, heirs, successors and assigns,
expressly and specifically relinquishes,  waives and releases any and all rights
to seek,  secure,  recover or collect any portion of such  judgment,  damages or
award against or from the Landlord personally or from any other property, assets
or  estate  of  the  Landlord,  its  heirs,  successors,   officers,  directors,
shareholders, legal representatives, agents, servant, employees or assigns.

     8. In lieu of the Landlord not requiring the Tenant to maintain a policy of
plate glass insurance, it is specifically agreed that the Tenant shall be solely
responsible  for the  replacement  of any  and all  plate  glass  damage  at the
Tenant's  cost and  expense.  In the event the Tenant  fails to  replace  and or
repair plate glass within a reasonable time after damage  thereto,  the Landlord
shall have the right to repair said plate glass damage,  and in such event,  the
landlord  is hereby  authorized  to add the cost of such  repair to any  regular
installment of rent thereafter becoming due, as additional rent.

     9.  Tenants  shall bear and pay to the Landlord as  additional  rent during
each Lease year, the cost to Landlord of the following:

                                       3

<PAGE>



     A.  Commencing  with the rental due November 1, 2000, the fixed annual rent
hereinbefore set forth for each fiscal year of this Lease  (hereinafter a "lease
year") shall be increased by additional rental in an amount equal to one hundred
[100%] percent of the amount expended for taxes,  [as hereinafter  defined],  in
such Lease year.


     Such  additional  rental shall be paid by the Tenants  within  fifteen (15)
days after the  Landlord  shall have  served  upon  Tenants a written  statement
thereof. The Tenants or their authorized  representative shall have the right to
inspect  the books of the  Landlord  during its regular  business  hours for the
purpose of verifying the information set forth in the statement submitted by the
Landlord  pursuant to this  paragraph  provided  that  written  request for such
inspection  shall be made by the Tenants  within ten (10) days after the receipt
of such statement.  For purposes of this paragraph,  the term "Taxes" means real
estate taxes,  transfer  taxes,  vault charges and other  governmental  taxes or
charges,  special,  ordinary or  extraordinary,  foreseen or unforeseen (but not
income,  franchise,  inheritance  or  capital  stock  taxes)  which  may  now or
hereafter  be levied or assessed  against the lands and  buildings  of which the
demised  premises  form a part  thereof.  In the  event  the tax  year  does not
correspond with a Lease year,  equitable  proration shall be made in determining
the amount expended in respect of such period.

     (a) Every  "lease  year"  during the term  hereof  shall be for a period of
twelve  (12)  full  calendar  months,  except  that the last  Lease  year  shall
terminate on the date this Lease expires or is otherwise terminated.

     (b) In the event  that as the  result  of  changes  in the  laws,  enabling
statutes or other code,  rules or regulations,  including but not limited to the
Internal Revenue Code, taxes or other levies or assessments against gross rental
income shall be  substituted  in whole or in part for any real property taxes or
assessments  presently applicable to real property,  then and to the extent that
such taxes shall be and  constitute a  substitute  for the real  property  taxes
against the premises of which the demised premises forms a part, such substitute
tax or assessment  shall be included in and considered part of the real property
taxes for the purposes of calculating  the portion thereof to be paid by Tenants
as additional rent hereunder.

     10. A. The amount of all such additional rent shall be due and payable with
the next regular monthly installment of rent following the submission to Tenants
of a bill,  together with the  calculation of additional  rent due,  therefor by
Landlord.

     B. A copy of the  official  tax  bill,  insurance  premium  bill  or  other
statement  or  invoice  for a charge  or  expense  to  Landlord  shall be deemed
sufficient  and conclusive  evidence of the amount of such charge or expense,  a
percentage of which is payable by Tenant to Landlord as additional rent.

                                       4

<PAGE>



     C. If any  extraordinary or excessive  insurance premium cost is charged to
Landlord  as the  result of the  nature  of  Tenant's  business,  or its use and
occupancy of the demised  premises or an  installation,  condition or alteration
made or maintained by Tenant  therein,  the full cost of such excess  premium or
extraordinary  charge  shall be borne by and paid by  Tenants.  The  finding  or
"make-up" of rate established by the New York Fire Rating  Organization (or such
other agency having  jurisdiction and responsibility for rating the building for
insurance purposes) shall be admissible as evidence in any action and proceeding
and shall be deemed  conclusive  evidence of the facts therein stated and of the
items and charges  then  applicable  to the  building  and the demised  premises
located therein. The total costs of insurance and the totality of coverage shall
not exceed that which is reasonable and customary.

     D. The portion of the  Landlord's  costs or charges  payable as  additional
rent by Tenants shall be apportioned on the basis that the first Lease year, the
last  Lease  year or any Lease year does not  coincide  with the fiscal  year to
which any such charge is applicable.

     11. It is  specifically  agreed that in the event of the default by Tenants
in the  performance of this Lease or the payment when due of any  installment of
rent or additional  rent or any other sum due under this Lease,  the Landlord is
expressly authorized,  empowered,  directed and entitled to use, apply or retain
as Landlord's  sole  property  that portion or all of the security  deposited by
Tenants  on the  signing  of this  Lease to the  extent  necessary  to cure such
default or to reimburse  Landlord for any sum which he may expend or be required
to expend by reason of Tenant's default. All or any portion of the said security
deposit  thus used or applied by Landlord  shall be made up and  redeposited  by
Tenants  forthwith  on demand to the  original  amount of the  security  deposit
required  under this Lease.  The security  deposit to be made  hereunder and any
additions  thereto,  shall be deposited  by the Landlord in a separate  interest
bearing savings  account,  and all interest  accruing thereon shall be deemed as
additional  security,  and  held  by  the  Landlord  pursuant  to  the  security
provisions of the within Lease.

     12.  Tenants agree that if Landlord  shall pay or be compelled to pay a sum
of money or to perform any act that requires the payment of money,  by reason of
the  failure  of the  Tenant to keep,  observe,  or  perform  any of the  terms,
covenants and provisions  herein contained to be kept,  observed or performed by
the Tenants,  other than the payment of rent, then and in such event, the sum or
sums so paid by the Landlord shall,  upon Landlord's  demand, be paid by Tenants
to Landlord as additional  rent,  with  interest  thereon at the maximum rate of
interest allowable on the date of such demand,  together with the installment of
the monthly base rent next due from date of said demand.

                                       5

     13. Any and all  notices,  consents and other  communications  which either
party may desire or be required  to give to the other  shall be in writing  and,
except as otherwise  herein  specifically  provided,  shall be sent by Certified
Mail, Return Receipt Requested,  addressed to the party for whom intended at the
address  first herein above set forth or at such other address as such party may
designate  for such purpose by notice duly given to the other.  All such notices
shall be deemed to have been duly given on the third  business day following the
date of the deposit thereof,  securely  enclosed in a postpaid wrapper addressed
as above, in an official depository maintained for mailing purposes by the U. S.
Post Office Department (or its successor postal agency).

     14. If any term,  condition  or  provision  of the printed  portion of this
Lease  shall  be  inconsistent   with  a  provision  of  this  Rider,  then  the
inconsistent  portions of the printed  Lease form shall be deemed  superseded by
the provisions set forth in this Rider.  Wherever  appropriate for good usage or
meaningful interpretation,  terms expressed in the neuter, masculine or feminine
gender shall be deemed interchangeable, as shall terms expressed in the singular
or plural be deemed interchangeable.

     15. In the event  that any  payment  provided  to be made  hereunder  shall
become overdue in excess of ten (10) days as additional  rent,  Tenant shall pay
to the  Landlord a late charge of five (.05) cents for each dollar so overdue to
compensate Landlord for expenses incurred in handling such delinquent payment or
payments. The charges hereunder shall be due and owing regardless of application
of security pursuant to paragraph "10".

     16. On the written  request of either  party,  the Landlord and the Tenants
each  covenant  and agree to execute,  seal,  acknowledge  and deliver  unto the
other,  within ten (10) days of written request,  a certificate  attesting:  (a)
Whether this Lease is current and in full and continuing  force and effect;  (b)
Whether there are any defaults,  arrears,  set-offs,  claims,  counter-claims or
defenses to or against the full  enforcement of any of the terms,  covenants and
conditions  to be paid and  performed  hereunder;  (c) To the amount of the rent
then being paid and the dates of the  commencement  and  expiration  of the term
hereof;  (d) To the  period  for which and the amount of the rent which has then
been  prepaid;  and  (e)  Whether  the  other  party  has  fully  performed  all
obligations on its part to be performed.

     17. It is  specifically  understood and agreed that any item required to be
paid by Tenants,  including  additional rent or payments for defaults,  shall be
deemed rent,  and upon the failure of Tenants to pay the same when due, it shall
be deemed  equivalent  to a default  in the  payment  of rent and shall  entitle
Landlord to invoke any and all remedies as in the case of non-payment of rent.

                                       6

<PAGE>



     18. In any case where Landlord brings any action or summary  proceeding for
any default of the Tenants  hereunder,  whether for the  non-payment  of rent or
additional  rent or any other default,  Landlord shall be entitled to reasonable
attorney's fees if successful; plus filing fees, sheriff's fees, if any, for any
one  action or  proceeding.  Parties  each  waive  trial by jury in any  summary
proceeding.


     19.  The  Tenants  shall  have the right to contest  any real  estate  tax,
special  assessments  or other  governmental  charges  levied  against  the real
property of which the demised  premises are a part,  by writ of  certiorari,  or
otherwise,  in the same manner as provided by law for the owner of the  property
to contest the same upon condition that the Tenants shall pay,  immediately upon
billing, such real estate taxes, special assessments or other government charges
(looking  to the  taxing  authorities  for a  refund  thereafter),  and upon the
further  condition that the cost of such proceeding shall be borne solely by the
Tenants and the Tenants shall hold the Landlord free and harmless from any cost,
penalties, interest, damages or other liability otherwise incurred as the result
thereof.  Landlord  shall,  at Tenant's  request,  execute such documents as are
reasonably necessary to carry out the foregoing.  In the event the Tenant should
be successful  in contesting as aforesaid,  the result of which creates a refund
to the landlord, the following shall apply:

     Upon receipt by the Landlord of such refund,  the Landlord  shall return to
the Tenant the costs and  expenses  incurred  by the  Tenant in  obtaining  such
refund.  The Tenants shall have a similar right to contest  insurance  costs and
any other costs charged pursuant to paragraphs "8" and "9".

     20. Ceiling lighting fixtures shall not be deemed trade fixtures,  and upon
installation, the same shall become, be and remain Landlord's sole property. All
light bulbs, tubes,  ballasts,  starters,  switches,  lenses and grills for such
ceiling fixtures,  and the servicing and maintenance  thereof shall at all times
be solely the obligation of Tenant.

     21. A. Tenant  covenants and agrees that it will occupy the entire  demised
premises,  and will  conduct  its  business  in the  regular  and usual  manner,
throughout  the  term  of this  Lease.  Tenants  acknowledge  that  Landlord  is
executing this Lease in reliance upon these covenants,  and that these covenants
are a material  element of  consideration  inducing the Landlord to execute this
Lease. Tenant further agrees that if it vacates the demised premises or fails to
so conduct  its  business  therein,  at any time  during the term of this Lease,
without the prior written consent of the Landlord,  then all rent and additional
rent reserved in this Lease from the date of such breach to the expiration  date
of this Lease, shall become immediately due and payable to Landlord.

                                       7

<PAGE>



     B. The parties  recognize  and agree that the damage to Landlord  resulting
from any breach of the covenants in  subdivision  (a) hereof will be substantial
and will be greater  than the rent  payable  for the balance of the term of this
Lease, and will be impossible of ascertainment. The parties, therefore, agree as
follows:

     1. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of the said covenants,  in
addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies,  at law or in equity or
otherwise,  Landlord  shall have the right of  injunction  to preserve  Tenant's
occupancy  and use. The words "become  vacant or deserted" as used  elsewhere in
this Lease shall  include  Tenant's  failure to occupy or use as by this Article
required.

     2. If Tenants breach either of the covenants in subdivision (a) above,  and
this Lease be terminated because of such default,  then,  anything in this Lease
as to the contrary notwithstanding:

     (a) Landlord shall have the right to re-enter the demised premises,  and to
alter,  reconstruct  and rent all or any part of the premises,  at any rental to
which  Landlord  shall agree,  for any portion of or beyond the original term of
this Lease.

     (b) Any income  received  by Landlord  on any such  re-rental  shall be the
property of the Landlord alone,  as compensation  for the expenses in connection
with the preparation and re-renting of the demised space, and, together with the
rents and additional rents payable as aforesaid,  as liquidated  damages for the
breach of Tenants, which damages cannot be computed, as aforesaid. Tenants shall
have no right to any portion of such income.

     22. In any action or summary proceeding brought by Landlord against Tenants
under this Lease (or any renewal, extension,  holdover or modification thereof),
for  non-payment of rent or additional  rent, the Tenant hereby waives the right
to  interpose,  and  expressly  covenants  and  agrees  not  to  interpose,  any
counterclaim  or set-off  of  whatever  nature or  description.  The  foregoing,
however,  shall not be deemed or  constitute a waiver of the  Tenant's  right to
commence and prosecute a separate action against Landlord on a bona-fide claim.

     23.  Every  "Lease  Year"  during the term hereof  shall be for a period of
twelve  (12)  full  calendar  months,  except  that the last  Lease  year  shall
terminate on the date this Lease expires or is otherwise terminated.

                                       8

     24. The fixed annual rent hereinafter  provided is intended to be and shall
be absolutely  net to Landlord.  It is the intention of the parties  hereto that
all expenses,  costs and obligations of the parties hereto, all expenses,  costs
and  obligations  of every kind and nature  whatsoever  relating  to the demised
premises,  (with the  exception  of the base real  estate  taxes and  structural
repairs  as defined  herein),  shall be paid by Tenants  either  directly  or as
additional  rent so that this Lease shall yield to Landlord the net fixed annual
rent specified during the term of this Lease.

     25. If any term or  provision of this Lease or the  application  thereof to
any person or circumstances  shall, to any extent,  be invalid or unenforceable,
the  remainder of this Lease,  or the  application  of such term or provision to
persons or  circumstances  other  than  those as to which it is held  invalid or
unenforceable,  shall not be affected  thereby,  and each term and  provision of
this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the  fullest  extent  permitted  by
law.

     26.  Tenants  agree not to allow or permit  during the  demised  term,  any
mechanic's or other lien for work, labor and services and/or materials furnished
or otherwise to attach to and become a lien upon the premises as a result of any
work done by or on behalf of  Tenants.  If such lien  shall so  attach,  Tenants
shall within  thirty (30) days after notice  thereof,  either pay or satisfy the
same or  procure  the  discharge  thereof  of  record  in such  manner as may be
permitted or provided by law.  Should  Tenants  fail or refuse to discharge  any
such lien within the period herein provided,  then Landlord is hereby authorized
to add the amount of the said lien to any regular installment of rent thereafter
becoming due as additional rent.

     27. During the entire term of this Lease,  the Tenants shall be required to
keep in full force and effect all  necessary  Certificates  of Occupancy for the
purposes for which the demised premises are rented,  permits and other approvals
or consents required by any governmental  authority having jurisdiction over the
business  conducted  by the Tenants as set forth in the  purpose  clause of this
Lease.  The Landlord  represents that the present zoning of the demised premises
is "C8".

     28.  Should any conflict in language or  interpretation  occur  between the
printed  provisions of this Lease,  the parties agree that the provisions in the
Rider shall prevail. All reference to paragraphs as set forth in the Rider shall
refer to  paragraphs  so  indicated  in the Rider and not to  paragraphs  in the
printed portion of this Lease, unless so designated or unless the context of the
Rider is intended to designate the printed portion of this Lease.

     29. This Lease  contains all of the agreements  and  understandings  of the
parties and cannot be amended or modified except by a written agreement.

     30. The unenforceability,  invalidity or illegality of any provision of the
Lease shall not render the other provisions unenforceable, invalid or illegal.

     31.  This Lease  shall not be  recorded.  No  Memorandum  shall be recorded
without the express written consent of the Landlord.

                                       9
<PAGE>



     32.  Tenants  covenant that the demised  premises will not be used so as to
interfere with other Tenants in the same building.

     33. In the event the Tenants do not vacate the premises upon the expiration
date of this Lease, then and in that event, the Tenants shall remain as month to
month Tenants at a monthly rental 100% greater than the last monthly rental paid
during the term of the Lease.  Nothing herein shall grant the Tenants a right to
holdover after the expiration of the Lease term.

     34.  The  annual  base rent for the years of the term of the  within  Lease
shall be as follows:

                                            Annual
                                            ------

Nov. 1, 2004 to Oct. 31, 2005       $408,410.00 - monthly $34,034.17.


     35.  Notwithstanding  any  provision of the within  Lease to the  contrary,
written  consent of the Landlord to an assignment  of the within  Lease,  and/or
sub-Lease of a portion of the demised premises,  shall be required. The Landlord
shall not  unreasonably  withhold  its consent to such  assignment  or sub-Lease
provided the then Tenant has complied with the following terms and conditions:

     (a) The within  Tenants  shall not be in default as to any of the terms and
conditions of the within Lease, and the Lease shall be in full force and effect.

     (b)  The  within   Tenants  shall  notify  the  Landlord  of  the  proposed
assignment,  or  sub-Lease,  which  notice shall be forwarded to the Landlord by
Certified Mail,  Return Receipt.  Said notice shall be mailed to the Landlord no
less than thirty (30) days prior to the proposed  assignment or sub-Lease.  Said
notice  shall  contain  the  name  and  address  of  the  proposed  assignee  or
sub-lessee, and if said assignee or sub-lessee is a corporation, the name of the
principal of said corporation, the date of the proposed assignment or sub-Lease,
and the proposed use of the premises by the assignee.

     (c) The use of the demised premises by the proposed  assignee or sub-lessee
shall be  substantially  similar to the Tenant's use and purpose provided for in
the within Lease.

                                       10

     (e) Such assignment or sub-Lease shall in no manner discharge the Tenant or
any  subsequent  Tenants  herein from any  liability  or  obligation  whatsoever
created by the within Lease,  and such liability and  obligation  shall continue
for the remainder of the within Lease.

     (f) If Tenants are a corporation, any dissolution, merger, consolidation or
reorganization of Tenant or the sale or other transfer of fifty (50%) percent or
more of the capital stock of the Tenant shall be deemed an assignment  under the
terms of this  paragraph  subject to all of the terms and  conditions  specified
herein; provided, however, that transfers of capital stock of the Tenant between
presently existing  shareholders of the Tenant, or transfers of capital stock to
members of the immediate family of the present shareholders of the Tenant, shall
not be deemed an assignment pursuant to the terms of the within paragraph.

     (g) If the  Tenants  are a  corporation,  or  this  Lease  is  subsequently
assigned to a  corporation,  the Tenant shall  furnish the Landlord  with a true
copy of a resolution duly adopted by the board of directors of such  corporation

     (h) The  Tenants  shall  be  responsible  for  the  payment  of  reasonable
attorney's  fees to the Landlord's  attorney for review of all documents and the
preparation of any additional  documents,  if necessary,  which  attorney's fees
will not exceed $750.00, plus any and all disbursements incurred.

     (i) That  simultaneously  with said  assignment  there shall be paid to the
Landlord,  as  additional  security,  a sum equal to two (2)  months of the then
applicable  rent,  and same shall be held by the  Landlord  pursuant to the same
terms as the security  recited herein in Lease  paragraph  "27".  This provision
shall apply to each and every assignment or sub-Lease of the within Lease.

                                       11

     36. Defaults and remedies.  A. If (1) Tenants default in the payment of any
rent or any additional  rent and such default  continues for five (5) days after
written  notice from Landlord or its agent or (2) Tenant  defaults in fulfilling
any of the covenant or agreements or any rules or  regulations  of this Lease on
its part to be kept or  performed  and such  default is not made good within ten
(10) days after  written  notice  from  Landlord  or its agent,  or within  such
additional  time as Tenant may be  prevented  from making good the default as is
caused  by  delays  attributable  to  strikes,  labor  troubles,  acts  of  God,
governmental  prohibitions and similar causes beyond Tenant's control, or (3) If
this Lease is  transferred  to or devolve upon any person or  corporation  other
than Tenant,  except as may be specifically  permitted by this Lease, or if this
Lease is mortgaged or assigned without the written consent of the Landlord, then
and in any of such events  mentioned in this  subparagraph "A" the term thereof,
shall  thereupon ipso facto expire and come to an end as if such  expiration was
so fixed by the terms of this  Lease on the fifth  (5th) or tenth  (10th) day of
such default as mentioned in (1) and (2) above and upon the occurrence mentioned
in (3) above and Landlord may re-enter upon the demised  premises either with or
without  process of law and remove all persons  therefrom  and Tenant shall quit
and  surrender  the  same  to  Landlord  and  Tenants  shall  remain  liable  as
hereinafter provided. In the event Tenants shall fail, neglect or refuse to quit
and  surrender  the  demised  premises  upon  receipt  of notice  from  Landlord
declaring  the term  hereof at an end,  then  Landlord  may  commence  a summary
proceeding to remove Tenant from the premises as a holdover.  If pursuant to (2)
the default is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within ten (10) days, if
Tenant  commences  to cure  such  default  within  ten (10)  days  and  proceeds
diligently  to remedy such  default,  the  Landlord  shall not have the right to
terminate this Lease.

     B. If Tenants shall abandon the demised  premises or if the premises become
and remain  vacant or deserted for a period of fifteen (15) days, or if the term
of this Lease shall expire as hereinabove  provided,  or if Tenant fails to take
possession  of  the  demised   premises   within   forty-five  (45)  days  after
commencement  of the term of this  Lease,  Landlord  may  re-enter  the  demised
premises and remove  Tenant or its legal  representatives  or other  occupant by
summary  proceedings or otherwise and Tenant hereby waives the service of notice
of intention or to institute legal proceedings to that end.

<PAGE>



     C.  In  case of any  re-entry,  expiration  and/or  dispossess  by  summary
proceedings or otherwise,  the rent shall become due thereupon and be paid up to
the time of such  re-entry,  dispossess  and/or  expiration,  together with such
expenses as Landlord may incur for legal  expenses,  attorneys  fees,  brokerage
and/or putting the demised premises in good order, or for preparing the same for
re-rental;  Landlord may relet the premises or any part or parts thereof  either
in the name of  Landlord  or  otherwise,  for a term or terms  which  may at the
Landlord's  option be less than or exceed the period  which may  otherwise  have
constituted  the  balance  of the term of this  Lease and may  grant  reasonable
concessions,  or free rent;  and Tenant or the legal  representatives  of Tenant
shall also pay  Landlord  as  liquidated  damages  for the  failure of Tenant to
observe and perform said Tenant's  covenants  herein  contained,  and deficiency
between all rent or  additional  rent hereby  reserved  and/or  covenanted to be
paid,  with  percentage  rental  computed  for the  balance  of the term for the
purpose of this article at the average  annual  percentage  rent for the two (2)
full Lease years  preceding the default or re-entry and the net amount,  if any,
of the rents collected on account of the Lease of the demised premises, for each
month of the period which would  otherwise have  constituted  the balance of the
terms of this Lease. In computing such  liquidated  damages there shall be added
to the said  deficiency  such expenses as Landlord may incur in connection  with
reletting, such as reasonable legal expenses,  attorneys fees, brokerage and for
keeping  the  demised  premises  in good  order  or for  preparing  the same for
reletting.  Any such liquidated damages shall be paid in monthly installments by
Tenant on the rent days specified in this Lease. Any suit brought to collect the
amount of the deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights
of Landlord  to collect the  deficiency  for any  subsequent  month by a similar
proceeding.  Landlord at Landlord's option may make such  alterations,  repairs,
replacements and/or decorations in the demised premises;  and the making of such
alterations,  repairs,  replacement  and/or  decorations shall not operate or be
construed to release  Tenant from  liability  hereunder as  aforesaid.  Landlord
shall  not be  liable  for  failure  to relet the  demised  premises.  The words
"re-enter"  or "re-entry" as used in this Lease shall not be restricted to their
technical  legal meaning.  Any rents or other income received by Landlord on any
such re-rental  shall be the property of Landlord alone and Tenant shall have no
right to any portion of such income.  In the event that the Tenant is successful
in any  proceeding  brought  pursuant  to the  provisions  hereof,  it  shall be
entitled to its reasonable legal fees.

     D. In the event of a breach or  threatened  breach by Tenants of any of the
covenants  or  provisions  of this  Lease,  Landlord  shall  have  the  right of
injunction  and the right to invoke  any  remedy  allowed at law or equity as if
re-entry,  summary  proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided for.
Mention in this Lease of any particular  remedy shall not preclude Landlord from
any other remedy,  in law or in equity.  Tenants hereby  expressly waive any and
all rights of  redemption  granted by order or any present or future laws in the
event of Tenants  being  evicted or  dispossessed,  or in the event of  Landlord
obtaining  possession of the demised premises by reason of Tenant's violation of
the  provisions of this Lease.  Tenants  further waive the provisions of Section
749,  Subparagraph 3 of the Real Property  Actions and  Proceedings  Law and any
successor statute thereto.

     E. In the  event  Tenants  shall  default  in the  payment  of any  rent or
additional rent as above provided,  and such default shall continue for ten (10)
days  after  written  notice  from  Landlord,  or its agent and not be made good
within said ten (10) day period,  then and in such event,  Landlord  may, at its
election, and in addition to any other remedy herein afforded, declare this term
at an end and  accelerate  the rent due for the  entire  Lease  period.  In such
event,  the balance of the minimum rent  reserved  from the date of such default
until the last day of the Lease  period,  shall  thereupon be forthwith  due and
payable. Failure by Landlord to relet the premises shall not be deemed an offset
or defense to recovery of the aforesaid  minimum rent due for the balance of the
term accelerated by reason of Tenant's  default above mentioned.  Landlord shall
be required to give the notice provisions contained in paragraph "12" hereof.

     F. If Tenants shall default in the  performance of any provision,  covenant
or condition on its part to be performed under this Lease,  Landlord may, at its
option,  perform the same for the  account  and at the  expense of  Tenants.  If
Landlord  at any time  shall be  compelled  to pay or  elected to pay any sum of
money by reason of the  failure of the Tenant to comply  with any  provision  of
this Lease, or if Landlord incurs any expense,  including reasonable  attorney's
fees in  prosecuting  or  defending  any action or  proceeding  by reason of any
default of Tenant  under this  Lease,  the sums so paid by  Landlord  with legal
interest, costs, and damages shall be due from and be paid by Tenant to Landlord
on demand. All such sums,  including all payments required to be made by Tenants
of any kind under this Lease, shall be deemed additional rent and Landlord shall
have  all  remedies  for the  collection  thereof  that  Landlord  may  have for
non-payment of minimum rent. In the event that the Tenants are successful in any
proceedings  brought pursuant to the provisions  hereof, it shall be entitled to
its reasonable legal fees and costs.

     37. The Tenants represent, warrant and declare that they have been afforded
the  opportunity to make exterior and interior  inspection of the premises which
are the subject of this Lease, that they have either made such inspection of the
said  premises,  or has caused such  inspection of the said premises to be made,
and the Tenants  distinctly  understand  that the  premises  are being leased in
their present condition and state of repair,  and tenants agree that at the time
of closing Tenants will accept the premises in their present condition and state
of repair.

     38.  Prior  to the  commencement  of any  alterations  contemplated  by the
Tenants during the term of this Lease,  the Tenants shall furnish  written plans
and  specifications  therefor to the Landlord and obtain the Landlord's  written
consent thereto, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

     (a) The Tenants  will apply for and obtain any and all permits  therefor as
same may be required by any municipal agency or authority  having  jurisdiction,
prior to the commencement of such alterations, and will apply for and secure any
and all  requisite  certificates  of occupancy  or  certificates  of  completion
therefor.

     (b) The  Landlord  and  Tenant  acknowledge  that the  Tenant  contemplates
causing extensive  alterations and renovations to the demised  premises,  at the
Tenants' sole cost and expense.

     The Tenant shall notify the Landlord  upon the  completion of the foregoing
alterations and renovations. Upon inspection by the Landlord that same have been
performed  in a  workmanlike  and  satisfactory  manner,  and of  all  requisite
permits,  completion  certificates and/or  Certificates of Occupancy,  are to be
furnished to the Landlord.

     39.  Tenant  represents  and warrants  that Tenant did not consult with any

damage that may arise by reason of any brokerage  claims or demands by reason of
Tenant's acts, and makes this covenant as an express inducement to the Landlord,
