    3.2   DELAY IN POSSESSION. Notwithstanding said Commencement Date, if
for any reason Lessor cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Lessee on
said date and subject to paragraph 3.2.2, Lessor shall not be subject to any
liability therefor, nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Lease
or the obligations of Lessee hereunder or extend the term hereof; but in
such case, Lessee shall not be obligated to pay rent or perform any other
obligation of Lessee under the terms of this Lease, except as may be
otherwise provided in this Lease, until possession of the Premises is
tendered to Lessee, as hereinafter defined; provided, however, that if Lessor
shall not have delivered possession of the Premises within sixty (60) days
following said Commencement Date, as the same may be extended under the terms
of a Work Letter executed by Lessor and Lessee, Lessee may, at Lessee's
option, by notice in writing to Lessor within ten (10) days thereafter,
cancel this Lease, in which event the parties shall be discharged from all
obligations hereunder; provided, however, that, as to Lessee's obligations,
Lessee first reimburses Lessor for all costs incurred for Non-Standard

if such written notice by Lessee is not received by Lessor within said ten (10)
day period, Lessee's right to cancel this Lease hereunder shall terminate and
be of no further force or effect.

          3.2.1  POSSESSION TENDERED--DEFINED. Possession of the Premises
shall be deemed tendered to Lessee ("Tender of Possession") when (1) the
improvements to be provided by Lessor under this Lease are substantially
completed, (2) the Building utilities are ready for use in the Premises, (3)
Lessee has reasonable access to the Premises, and (4) ten (10) days shall
have expired following advance written notice to Lessee of the occurrence of
the matters described in (1), (2) and (3), above of this paragraph 3.2.1.

          3.2.2  DELAYS CAUSED BY LESSEE. There shall be no abatement of
rent, and the sixty (60) day period following the Commencement Date before
which Lessee's right to cancel this Lease accrues under paragraph 3.2, shall
be deemed extended to the extent of any delays caused by acts or omissions of
Lessee, Lessee's agents, employees and contractors.

    3.3   EARLY POSSESSION. If Lessee occupies the Premises prior to said
Commencement Date, such occupancy shall be subject to all provisions of this
Lease, such occupancy shall not change the termination date, and Lessee shall
pay rent for such occupancy.

    3.4   UNCERTAIN COMMENCEMENT. In the event commencement of the Lease
term is defined as the completion of the improvements, Lessee and Lessor
shall execute an amendment to this Lease establishing the date of Tender of
Possession (as defined in paragraph 3.2.1) or the actual taking of possession
by Lessee, whichever first occurs, as the Commencement Date.

4.  RENT.

    4.1   BASE RENT. Subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided in
paragraph 4.3, and except as may be otherwise expressly provided in this
Lease, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the Base Rent for the Premises set forth in
paragraph 1.6 of the Basic Lease Provisions, without offset or deduction.
Lessee shall pay Lessor upon execution hereof the advance Base Rent described
in paragraph 1.8 of the Basic Lease Provisions.  Rent for any period during
the term hereof which is for less than one month shall be prorated based upon
the actual number of days of the calendar month involved.  Rent shall be
payable in lawful money of the United States to Lessor at the address stated
herein or to such other persons or at such other places as Lessor may
designate in writing.

    4.2   OPERATING EXPENSE INCREASE. Lessee shall pay to Lessor during the
term hereof, in addition to the Base Rent, Lessee's Share, as hereinafter
defined, of the amount by which all Operating Expenses, as hereinafter
defined, for each Comparison Year exceeds the amount of all Operating
Expenses for the Base Year, such excess being hereinafter referred to as the
"Operating Expense Increase," in accordance with the following provisions:

          (a) "Lessee's Share" is defined, for purposes of this Lease, as the
percentage set forth in paragraph 1.10 of the Basic Lease Provisions, which
percentage has been determined by dividing the approximate square footage of
the Premises by the total approximate square footage of the rentable space
contained in the Office Building Project.  It is understood and agreed that
the square footage figures set forth in the Basic Lease Provisions are
approximations which Lessor and Lessee agree are reasonable and shall not be
subject to revision except in connection with an actual change in the size of
the Premises or a change in the space available for lease in the Office
Building Project.

          (b) "Base Year" is defined as the calendar year in which the Lease
term commences.

          (c) "Comparison Year" is defined as each calendar year during the
term of this Lease subsequent to the Base Year; provided, however, Lessee
shall have no obligation to pay a share of the Operating Expense Increase
applicable to the first twelve (12) months of the Lease Term (other than such
as are mandated by a governmental authority, as to which government mandated
expenses Lessee shall pay Lessee's Share, notwithstanding they occur during
the first twelve (12) months).  Lessee's Share of the Operating Expense
Increase for the first and last Comparison Years of the Lease Term shall be
prorated according to that portion of such Comparison Year as to which Lessee
is responsible for a share of such increase.

          (d) "Operating Expenses" is defined, for purposes of this Lease, to
include all costs, if any, incurred by Lessor in the exercise of its
reasonable discretion, for:

              (i)    The operation, repair, maintenance, and replacement, in
neat, clean, safe, good order and condition, of the Office Building Project,
including but not limited to, the following:

                     (aa) The Common Areas, including their surfaces,
coverings, decorative items, carpets, drapes and window coverings, and
including parking areas, loading and unloading areas, trash areas, roadways,
sidewalks, walkways, stairways, parkways, driveways, landscaped areas,
striping, bumpers, irrigation systems, Common Area lighting facilities,
building exteriors and roofs, fences and gates;

                     (bb) All heating, air conditioning, plumbing, electrical
systems, life safety equipment, telecommunication and other equipment used in
common by, or for the benefit of, lessees or occupants of the Office Building
Project, including elevators and escalators, tenant directories, fire
detection systems including sprinkler system maintenance and repair.

              (ii)   Trash disposal, janitorial and security services;

              (iii)  Any other service to be provided by Lessor that is
elsewhere in this Lease stated to be an "Operating Expense";

              (iv)   The cost of the premiums for the liability and property
insurance policies to be maintained by Lessor under paragraph 8 hereof;

              (v)    The amount of the real property taxes to be paid by
Lessor under paragraph 10.1 hereof;

              (vi)   The cost of water, sewer, gas, electricity, and other
publicly mandated services to the Office Building Project;

              (vii)  Labor, salaries and applicable fringe benefits and
costs, materials, supplies and tools, used in maintaining and/or cleaning the
Office Building Project and accounting and a management fee attributable to
the operation of the Office Building Project;

              (viii) Replacing and/or adding improvements mandated by any
governmental agency and any repairs or removals necessitated thereby
amortized over its useful life according to Federal income tax regulations or
guidelines for depreciation thereof (including interest on the unamortized
balance as is then reasonable in the judgment of Lessor's accountants);

              (ix)   Replacement of equipment or improvements that have a
useful life for depreciation purposes according to Federal income tax
guidelines of five (5) years or less, as amortized over such life.

          (e) Operating Expenses shall not include the costs of replacements
of equipment or improvements that have a useful life for Federal income tax
purposes in excess of five (5) years unless it is of the type described in
paragraph 4.2(d)(viii), in which case their cost shall be included as above
provided.

          (f) Operating Expenses shall not include any expenses paid by any
lessee directly to third parties, or as to which Lessor is otherwise
reimbursed by any third party, other tenant, or by insurance proceeds.

          (g) Lessee's Share of Operating Expense Increase shall be payable
by Lessee within ten (10) days after a reasonably detailed statement of
actual expenses is presented to Lessee by Lessor.  At Lessor's option,
however, an amount may be estimated by Lessor from time to time in advance of
Lessee's Share of the Operating Expense Increase for any Comparison Year, and
the same shall be payable monthly or quarterly, as Lessor shall designate,
during each Comparison Year of the Lease term, on the same day as the Base
Rent is due hereunder.  In the event that Lessee pays Lessor's estimate of
Lessee's Share of Operating Expense Increase as aforesaid, Lessor shall
deliver to Lessee within sixty (60) days after the expiration of each
Comparison Year a reasonably detailed statement showing Lessee's Share of the
actual Operating Expense Increase incurred during such year.  If Lessee's
payments under this paragraph 4.2(g) during said Comparison Year exceed
Lessee's Share as indicated on said statement, Lessee shall be entitled to
credit the amount of such overpayment against Lessee's Share of Operating
Expense Increase next falling due.  If Lessee's payments under this paragraph
during said Comparison Year were less than Lessee's Share as indicated on
said statement, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount of the deficiency
within ten (10) days after delivery by Lessor to Lessee of said statement.
Lessor and Lessee shall forthwith adjust between them by cash payment any
balance determined to exist with respect to that portion of the last
Comparison Year for which Lessee is responsible as to Operating Expense
Increases, notwithstanding that the Lease term may have terminated before the
end of such Comparison Year.

    4.3   RENT INCREASE.

          4.3.1  At the times set forth in paragraph 1.7 of the Basic Lease
Provisions, the monthly Base Rent payable under paragraph 4.1 of this Lease
shall be adjusted by the increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor for All Urban
Consumers, (1967=100), "All Items," for the city nearest the location of the
Building, herein referred to as "C.P.I.," since the date of this Lease.

          4.3.2  The monthly Base Rent payable pursuant to paragraph 4.3.1
shall be calculated as follows: the Base Rent payable for the first month of
the term of this Lease, as set forth in paragraph 4.1 of this Lease, shall be
multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the C.P.I. of the
calendar month during which the adjustment is to take effect, and the
denominator of which shall be the C.P.I. for the calendar month in which the
original Lease term commences.  The sum so calculated shall constitute the
new monthly Base Rent hereunder, but, in no event, shall such new monthly
Base Rent be less than an additional three percent (3%) or more than an
additional eight percent (8%) of the Base Rent payable for the month
immediately preceding the date for the rent adjustment.

          4.3.3  In the event the compilation and/or publication of the
C.P.I. shall be transferred to any other governmental department or bureau or
agency or shall be discontinued, then the index most nearly the same as the
C.P.I. shall be used to make such calculations. In the event that Lessor and
Lessee cannot agree on such alternative index, then the matter shall be
submitted for decision to the American Arbitration Association in the county
in which the Premises are located, in accordance with the then rules of said
association and the decision of the arbitrators shall be binding upon the
parties, notwithstanding one party failing to appear

after due notice of the proceeding. The cost of said Arbitrators shall be
paid equally by Lessor and Lessee.

          4.3.4  Lessee shall continue to pay the rent at the rate previously
in effect until the increase, if any, is determined. Within five (5) days
following the date on which the increase is determined, Lessee shall make
such payment to Lessor as will bring the increased rental current, commencing
with the effective date of such increase through the date of any rental
instalments then due. Thereafter the rental shall be paid at the increased
rate.

          4.3.5  At such time as the amount of any change in rental required
by this Lease is known or determined, Lessor and Lessee shall execute an
amendment to this Lease setting forth such change.

5.  SECURITY DEPOSIT. Lessee shall deposit with Lessor upon execution hereof
the security deposit set forth in paragraph 1.9 of the Basic Lease Provisions
as security for Lessee's faithful performance of Lessee's obligations
hereunder. If Lessee fails to pay rent or other charges due hereunder, or
otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, Lessor may
use, apply or retain all or any portion of said deposit for the payment of
any rent or other charge in default for the payment of any other sum to which
Lessor may become obligated by reason of Lessee's default, or to compensate
Lessor for any loss or damage which Lessor may suffer thereby. If Lessor so
uses or applies all or any portion of said deposit, Lessee shall within ten
(10) days after written demand therefor deposit cash with Lessor in an amount
sufficient to restore said deposit to the full amount then required of
Lessee. If the monthly Base Rent shall, from time to time, increase during
the term of this Lease, Lessee shall, at the time of such increase, deposit
with Lessor additional money as a security deposit so that the total amount
of the security deposit held by Lessor shall at all times bear the same
proportion to the then current Base Rent as the initial security deposit
bears to the initial Base Rent set forth in paragraph 1.6 of the Basic Lease
Provisions. Lessor shall not be required to keep said security deposit
separate from its general accounts. If Lessee performs all of Lessee's
obligations hereunder, said deposit, or so much thereof as has not heretofore
been applied by Lessor, shall be returned, without payment of interest or
other increment for its use, to Lessee (or, at Lessor's option, to the last
assignee, if any, of Lessee's interest hereunder) at the expiration of the
term hereof, and after Lessee has vacated the Premises. No trust relationship
is created herein between Lessor and Lessee with respect to said Security
Deposit.

6.  USE.

    6.1   USE. The Premises shall be used and occupied only for the purpose
set forth in paragraph 1.4 of the Basic Lease Provisions or any other use
which is reasonably comparable to that use and for no other purpose.

    6.2   COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.

          (a) Lessor warrants to Lessee that the Premises, in the state
existing on the date that the Lease term commences, but without regard to
alterations or improvements made by Lessee or the use for which Lessee will
occupy the Premises, does not violate any covenants or restrictions of
record, or any applicable building code, regulation or ordinance in effect on
such Lease term Commencement Date. In the event it is determined that this
warranty has been violated, then it shall be the obligation of the Lessor,
after written notice from Lessee, to promptly, at Lessor's sole cost and
expense, rectify any such violation.

          (b) Except as provided in paragraph 6.2(a) Lessee shall, at
Lessee's expense, promptly comply with all applicable statutes, ordinances,
rules, regulations, orders, covenants and restrictions of record, and
requirements of any fire insurance underwriters or rating bureaus, now in
effect or which may hereafter come into effect, whether or not they reflect a
change in policy from that now existing, during the term or any part of the
term hereof, relating in any manner to the Premises and the occupation and
use by Lessee of the Premises. Lessee shall conduct its business in a lawful
manner and shall not use or permit the use of the Premises or the Common
Areas in any manner that will tend to create waste or a nuisance or shall
tend to disturb other occupants of the Office Building Project.

    6.3   CONDITION OF PREMISES.

          (a) Lessor shall deliver the Premises to Lessee in a clean
condition on the Lease Commencement Date (unless Lessee is already in
possession) and Lessor warrants to Lessee that the plumbing, lighting, air
conditioning, and heating system in the Premises shall be in good operating
condition. In the event that it is determined that this warranty has been
violated, then it shall be the obligation of Lessor, after receipt of written
notice from Lessee setting forth with specificity the nature of the
violation, to promptly, at Lessor's sole cost, rectify such violation.

          (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Lessee hereby
accepts the Premises and the Office Building Project in their condition
existing as of the Lease Commencement Date or the date that Lessee takes
possession of the Premises, whichever is earlier, subject to all applicable
zoning, municipal, county and state laws, ordinances and regulations
governing and regulating the use of the Premises, and any easements,
covenants or restrictions of record, and accepts this Lease subject thereto
and to all matters disclosed thereby and by any exhibits attached hereto.
Lessee acknowledges that it has satisfied itself by its own independent
investigation that the Premises are suitable for its intended use, and that
neither Lessor nor Lessor's agent or agents has made any representation or
warranty as to the present or future suitability of the Premises, Common
Areas, or Office Building Project for the conduct of Lessee's business.

7.  MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS, ALTERATIONS AND COMMON AREA SERVICES.

    7.1   LESSOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Lessor shall keep the Office Building
Project, including the Premises, interior and exterior walls, roof, and
common areas, and the equipment whether used exclusively for the Premises or
in common with other premises, in good condition and repair; provided,
however, Lessor shall not be obligated to paint, repair or replace wall
coverings, or to repair or replace any improvements that are not ordinarily a
part of the Building or are above then Building standards. Except as provided
in paragraph 9.5, there shall be no abatement of rent or liability of Lessee
on account of any injury or interference with Lessee's business with respect
to any improvements, alterations or repairs made by Lessor to the Office
Building Project or any part thereof. Lessee expressly waives the benefits of
any statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise afford Lessee
the right to make repairs at Lessor's expense or to terminate this Lease
because of Lessor's failure to keep the Premises in good order, condition and
repair.

    7.2   LESSEE'S OBLIGATIONS.

          (a) Notwithstanding Lessor's obligation to keep the Premises in
good condition and repair, Lessee shall be responsible for payment of the
cost thereof to Lessor as additional rent for that portion of the cost of any
maintenance and repair of the Premises, or any equipment (wherever located)
that serves only Lessee or the Premises, to the extent such cost is
attributable to causes beyond normal wear and tear. Lessee shall be
responsible for the cost of painting, repairing or replacing wall coverings,
and to repair or replace any Premises improvements that are not ordinarily a
part of the Building or that are above then Building standards. Lessor may,
at its option, upon reasonable notice, elect to have Lessee perform any
particular such maintenance or repairs the cost of which is otherwise
Lessee's responsibility hereunder.

          (b) On the last day of the term hereof, or on any sooner
termination, Lessee shall surrender the Premises to Lessor in the same
condition as received, ordinary wear and tear excepted, clean and free of
debris.  Any damage or deterioration of the Premises shall not be deemed
ordinary wear and tear if the same could have been prevented by good
maintenance practices by Lessee.  Lessee shall repair any damage to the
Premises occasioned by the installation or removal of Lessee's trade
fixtures, alterations, furnishings and equipment. Except as otherwise stated
in this Lease, Lessee shall leave the air lines, power panels, electrical
distribution systems, lighting fixtures, air conditioning, window coverings,
wall coverings, carpets, wall panelling, ceilings and plumbing on the
Premises and in good operating condition.

    7.3   ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS.

          (a) Lessee shall not, without Lessor's prior written consent make
any alterations, improvements, additions, Utility Installations or repairs
in, on or about the Premises, or the Office Building Project.  As used in
this paragraph 7.3 the term "Utility Installation" shall mean carpeting,
window and wall coverings, power panels, electrical distribution systems,
lighting fixtures, air conditioning, plumbing, and telephone and
telecommunication wiring and equipment.  At the expiration of the term,
Lessor may require the removal of any or all of said alterations,
improvements, additions or Utility Installations, and the restoration of the
Premises and the Office Building Project to their prior condition, at
Lessee's expense.  Should Lessor permit Lessee to make its own alterations,
improvements, additions or Utility Installations, Lessee shall use only such
contractor as has been expressly approved by Lessor, and Lessor may require
Lessee to provide Lessor, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, a lien and
completion bond in an amount equal to one and one-half times the estimated
cost of such improvements, to insure Lessor against any liability for
mechanic's and materialmen's liens and to insure completion of the work.
Should Lessee make any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility
Installations without the prior approval of Lessor, or use a contractor not
expressly approved by Lessor, Lessor may, at any time during the term of this
Lease, require that Lessee remove any part or all of the same.

          (b) Any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility
Installations in or about the Premises or the Office Building Project that
Lessee shall desire to make shall be presented to Lessor in written form,
with proposed detailed plans.  If Lessor shall give its consent to Lessee's

consent shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee acquiring a permit to do so

Lessor prior to the commencement of the work, and compliance by Lessee with
all conditions of said permit in a prompt and expeditious manner.

          (c) Lessee shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials
furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for use in

          (d) Lessee shall give Lessor not less than ten (10) days' notice
prior to the commencement of any work in the Premises by Lessee, and Lessor
shall have the right to post notices of non-responsibility in or on the
Premises or the Building as provided by law.  If Lessee shall, in good faith,
contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at
its sole expense defend itself and Lessor against the same and shall pay and
satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the
enforcement thereof against the Lessor or the Premises, the Building or the
Office Building Project, upon the condition that if Lessor shall require,
Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an
amount equal to such contested lien claim or demand indemnifying Lessor
against liability for the same and holding the Premises, the Building and the
Office Building Project free from the effect of such lien or claim.  In
addition, Lessor may require Lessee to pay Lessor's reasonable attorneys'
fees and costs in participating in such action if Lessor shall decide it is
to Lessor's best interest so to do.

          (e) All alterations, improvements, additions and Utility
Installations (whether or not such Utility Installations constitute trade
fixtures of Lessee), which may be made to the Premises by Lessee, including
but not limited to, floor coverings, panelings, doors, drapes, built-ins,
moldings, sound attenuation, and lighting and telephone or communication
systems, conduit, wiring and outlets, shall be made and done in a good and
workmanlike manner and of good and sufficient quality and materials and shall
be the property of Lessor and remain upon and be surrendered with the
Premises at the expiration of the Lease term, unless Lessor requires their
removal pursuant to paragraph 7.3(a).  Provided Lessee is not in default,
notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 7.3(e), Lessee's personal
property and equipment, other than that which is affixed to the Premises so
that it cannot be removed without material damage to the Premises or the
Building, and other than Utility Installations, shall remain the property of
Lessee and may be removed by Lessee subject to the provisions of paragraph
7.2.

          (f) Lessee shall provide Lessor with as-built plans and
specifications for any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility
Installations.

    7.4   UTILITY ADDITIONS. Lessor reserves the right to install new or
additional utility facilities throughout the Office Building Project for the
benefit of Lessor or Lessee, or any other lessee of the Office Building
Project, including, but not by way of limitation, such utilities as plumbing,
electrical systems, communication systems, and fire protection and detection
systems, so long as such installations do not unreasonably interfere with
Lessee's use of the Premises.

8.  INSURANCE; INDEMNITY.

    8.1   LIABILITY INSURANCE--LESSEE. Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense,
obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease a policy of
Comprehensive General Liability insurance utilizing an Insurance Services
Office standard form with Broad Form General Liability Endorsement (GL0404),
or equivalent, in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence of
bodily injury and property damage combined or in a greater amount as
reasonably determined by Lessor and shall insure Lessee with Lessor as an
additional insured against liability arising out of the use, occupancy or
maintenance of the Premises.  Compliance with the above requirement shall
not, however, limit the liability of Lessee hereunder.

    8.2   LIABILITY INSURANCE--LESSOR. Lessor shall obtain and keep in force
during the term of this Lease a policy of Combined Single Limit Bodily Injury
and Broad Form Property Damage Insurance, plus coverage against such other
risks Lessor deems advisable from time to time, insuring Lessor, but not
Lessee, against liability arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or
maintenance of the Office Building Project in an amount not less than
$5,000,000.00 per occurrence.

    8.3   PROPERTY INSURANCE--LESSEE. Lessee shall, at Lessee's expenses,
obtain and keep in force during the term of this Lease for the benefit of
Lessee, replacement cost fire and extended coverage insurance, with vandalism
and malicious mischief, sprinkler leakage and earthquake sprinkler leakage
endorsements, in an amount sufficient to cover not less than 100% of the full
replacement cost, as the same may exist from time to time, of all of Lessee's
personal property, fixtures, equipment and tenant improvements.

    8.4   PROPERTY INSURANCE--LESSOR. Lessor shall obtain and keep in force
during the term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance covering loss
or damage to the Office Building Project improvements, but not Lessee's
personal property, fixtures, equipment or tenant improvements, in the amount
of the full replacement cost thereof, as the same may exist from time to
time, utilizing Insurance Services Office standard form, or equivalent,
providing protection against all perils included within the classification of
fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, plate glass, and such
other perils as Lessor deems advisable or may be required by a lender having
a lien on the Office Building Project. In addition, Lessor shall obtain and
keep in force, during the term of this Lease, a policy of rental value
insurance covering a period of one year, with loss payable to Lessor, which
insurance shall also cover all Operating Expenses for said period.  Lessee
will not be named in any such policies carried by Lessor and shall have no
right to any proceeds therefrom.  The policies required by these paragraphs
8.2 and 8.4 shall contain such deductibles as Lessor or the aforesaid lender
may determine.  In the event that the Premises shall suffer an insured loss
as defined in paragraph 9.1(f) hereof, the deductible amounts under the
applicable insurance policies shall be deemed an Operating Expense.  Lessee
shall not do or permit to be done anything which shall invalidate the
insurance policies carried by Lessor.  Lessee shall pay the entirety of any
increase in the property insurance premium for the Office Building Project
over what it was immediately prior to the commencement of the term of this
Lease if the increase is specified by Lessor's insurance carrier as being
caused by the nature of Lessee's occupancy or any act or omission of Lessee.

    8.5   INSURANCE POLICIES. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor copies of
liability insurance policies required under paragraph 8.1 or certificates
evidencing the existence and amounts of such insurance within seven (7) days
after the Commencement Date of this Lease. No such policy shall be
cancellable or subject to reduction of coverage or other modification except
after thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lessor.  Lessee shall, at
least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of such policies, furnish
Lessor with renewals thereof.

    8.6   WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and
relieve the other, and waive their entire right of recovery against the
other, for direct or consequential loss or damage arising out of or incident
to the perils covered by property insurance carried by such party, whether
due to the negligence of Lessor or Lessee or their agents, employees,
contractors and/or invitees.  If necessary all property insurance policies
required under this Lease shall be endorsed to so provide.

    8.7   INDEMNITY. Lessee shall indemnify and hold harmless Lessor and its
agents, Lessor's master or ground lessor, partners and lenders, from and
against any and all claims for damage to the person or property of anyone or
any entity arising from Lessee's use of the Office Building Project, or from
the conduct of Lessee's business or from any activity, work or things done,
permitted or suffered by Lessee in or about the Premises or elsewhere and
shall further indemnify and hold harmless Lessor from and against any and all
claims, costs and expenses arising from any breach or default in the
performance of any obligation on Lessee's part to be performed under the
terms of this Lease, or arising from any act or omission of Lessee, or any of
Lessee's agents, contractors, employees, or invitees, and from and against
all costs, attorney's fees, expenses and liabilities incurred by Lessor as
the result of any such use, conduct, activity, work, things done, permitted
or suffered, breach, default or negligence, and in dealing reasonably
therewith, including but not limited to the defense or pursuit of any claim
or any action or proceeding involved therein; and in case any action or
proceeding be brought against Lessor by reason of any such matter, Lessee
upon notice from Lessor shall defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in
such defense.  Lessor need not have first paid any such claim in order to be
so indemnified.  Lessee, as a material part of the consideration to Lessor,
hereby assumes all risk of damage to property of Lessee or injury to persons,
in, upon or about the Office Building Project arising from any cause and
Lessee hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against Lessor.

    8.8   EXEMPTION OF LESSOR FROM LIABILITY. Lessee hereby agrees that
Lessor shall not be liable for injury to Lessee's business or any loss of
income therefrom or for loss of or damage to the goods, wares, merchandise or
other property of Lessee, Lessee's employees, invitees, customers, or any
other person in or about the Premises or the Office Building Project, nor
shall Lessor be liable for injury to the person of Lessee, Lessee's
employees, agents or contractors, whether such damage or injury is caused by
or results from theft, fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from
the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers,
wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from
any other cause, whether said damage or injury results from conditions
arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the Office Building
Project, or from other sources or places, or from new construction or the
repair, alteration or improvement of any part of the Office Building Project,
or of the equipment, fixtures or appurtenances applicable thereto, and
regardless of whether the cause of such damage or injury or the means of
repairing the same is inaccessible, Lessor shall not be liable for any
damages arising from any act or neglect of any other lessee, occupant or user
of the Office Building Project, nor from the failure of Lessor to enforce the
provisions of any other lease of any other lessee of the Office Building
Project.

    8.9   NO REPRESENTATION OF ADEQUATE COVERAGE. Lessor makes no
representation that the limits or forms of coverage of insurance specified in
this paragraph 8 are adequate to cover Lessee's property or obligations under
this Lease.

occurrence of such damage.

          (b) Notwithstanding paragraph 9.4(a), in the event that Lessee has

option, if it is to be exercised at all, no later than twenty (20) days after
the occurrence of an Insured Loss falling within the classification of

Premises are not usable (including loss of use due to loss of access or
essential services), the rent payable hereunder (including Lessee's Share of

six (6) months after such occurrence, Lessee may at Lessee's option cancel

Lessor at the time that Operating Expenses are payable under paragraph 4.2(c)
the entirety of any increase in real property tax if assessed solely by

or other income therefrom, and as against Lessor's business of leasing the
Office Building Project.  The term "real property tax" shall also include any
tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge (i) in substitution of, partially or

hereinbefore included within the definition of "real property tax," or (iii)
which is imposed for a service or right not charged prior to June 1, 1978
or, if previously charged, has been increased since June 1, 1978, or (iv)
which is imposed as a result of a change in ownership, as defined by

operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage, sublet, or otherwise transfer or
encumber all or any part of Lessee's interest in the Lease or in the
Premises, without Lessor's prior written consent, which Lessor shall not
unreasonably withhold. Lessor shall respond to Lessee's request for consent
hereunder in a timely manner and any attempted assignment, transfer,
mortgage, encumbrance or subletting without such consent shall be void, and
shall constitute a material default and breach of this Lease without the need
for notice to Lessee under paragraph 13.1. "Transfer" within the meaning of
this paragraph 12 shall include the transfer or transfers aggregating: (a) if
Lessee is a corporation, more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting

the merger or consolidation with Lessee, or to any person or entity which
acquires all the assets of Lessee as a going concern of the business that is
being conducted on the Premises, all of which are referred to as "Lessee
Affiliate"; provided that before such assignment shall be effective, (a) said
assignee shall assume, in full, the obligations of Lessee under this Lease
and (b) Lessor shall be given written notice of such assignment and
assumption.  Any such assignment shall not, in any way, affect or limit the
liability of Lessee under the terms of this Lease even if after such
assignment or subletting the terms of this Lease are materially changed or
altered without the consent of Lessee, the consent of whom shall not be
necessary.

    12.3  TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

          (a) Regardless of Lessor's consent, no assignment or subletting

liability of Lessee to pay the rent and other sums due Lessor hereunder
including Lessee's Share of Operating Expense Increase, and to perform all
other obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder.

          (b) Lessor may accept rent from any person other than Lessee
pending approval or disapproval of such assignment.

          (c) Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such
assignment or subletting, nor the acceptance of rent, shall constitute a
waiver or estoppel of Lessor's right to exercise its remedies for the breach
of any of the terms or conditions of this paragraph 12 or this Lease.

          (d) If Lessee's obligations under this Lease have been guaranteed
by third parties, then an assignment or sublease, and Lessor's consent
thereto, shall not be effective unless said guarantors give their written
consent to such sublease and the terms thereof.

          (e) The consent by Lessor to any assignment or subletting shall not
constitute a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting by Lessee or
to any subsequent or successive assignment or subletting by the sublessee.
However, Lessor may consent to subsequent sublettings and assignments of the
sublease or any amendments or modifications thereto without notifying Lessee
or anyone else liable on the Lease or sublease and without obtaining their
consent and such action shall not relieve such persons from liability under
this Lease or said sublease; however, such persons shall not be responsible
to the extent any such amendment or modification enlarges or increases the
obligations of the Lessee or sublessee under this Lease or such sublease.

          (f) In the event of any default under this Lease, Lessor may
proceed directly against Lessee, any guarantors or anyone else responsible
for the performance of this Lease, including the sublessee, without first
exhausting Lessor's remedies against any other person or entity responsible
therefor to Lessor, or any security held by Lessor or Lessee.

          (g) Lessor's written consent to any assignment or subletting of the
Premises by Lessee shall not constitute an acknowledgment that no default
then exists under this Lease of the obligations to be performed by Lessee nor
shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing default, except as
may be otherwise stated by Lessor at the time.

          (h) The discovery of the fact that any financial statement relied
upon by Lessor in giving its consent to an assignment or subletting was
materially false shall, at Lessor's election, render Lessor's said consent
null and void.

    12.4  ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO SUBLETTING.
Regardless of Lessor's consent, the following terms and conditions shall
apply to any subletting by Lessee of all or any part of the Premises and
shall be deemed included in all subleases under this Lease whether or not
expressly incorporated therein:

          (a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfers to Lessor all of Lessee's
interest in all rentals and income arising from any sublease heretofore or
hereafter made by Lessee, and Lessor may collect such rent and income and
apply same toward Lessee's obligations under this Lease; provided, however,
that until a default shall occur in the performance of Lessee's obligations
under this Lease, Lessee may receive, collect and enjoy the rents accruing
under such sublease.  Lessor shall not, by reason of this or any other
assignment of such sublease to Lessor nor by reason of the collection of the
rents from a sublessee, be deemed liable to the sublessee for any failure of
Lessee to perform and comply with any of Lessee's obligations to such
sublessee under such sublease.  Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes and
directs any such sublessee, upon receipt of a written notice from Lessor
stating that a default exists in the performance of Lessee's obligations
under this Lease, to pay to Lessor the rents due and to become due under the
sublease.  Lessee agrees that such sublessee shall have the right to rely
upon any such statement and request from Lessor, and that such sublessee
shall pay such rents to Lessor without any obligation or right to inquire as
to whether such default exists and notwithstanding any notice from or claim
from Lessee to the contrary Lessee shall have no right or claim against
said sublessee or Lessor for any such rents so paid by said sublessee to
Lessor.

          (b) No sublease entered into by Lessee shall be effective unless
and until it has been approved in writing by Lessor.  In entering into any
sublease, Lessee shall use only such form of sublease as is satisfactory to
Lessor, and once approved by Lessor, such sublease shall not be changed or
modified without Lessor's prior written consent.  Any sublease shall, by
reason of entering into a sublease under this Lease, be deemed for the
benefit of Lessor, to have assumed and agreed to conform and comply with each
and every obligation herein to be performed by Lessee other than such
obligations as are contrary to or inconsistent with provisions contained in a
sublease to which Lessor has expressly consented in writing.

          (c) In the event Lessee shall default in the performance of its
obligations under this Lease, Lessor at its option and without any obligation
to do so, may require any sublessee to attorn to Lessor, in which event
Lessor shall undertake the obligations of Lessee under such sublease from the
time of the exercise of said option to the termination of such sublease;
provided, however, Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or
security deposit paid by such sublessee to Lessee or for any other prior
defaults of Lessee under such sublease.

          (d) No sublessee shall further assign or sublet all or any part of
the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent.

          (e) With respect to any subletting to which Lessor has consented,
Lessor agrees to deliver a copy of any notice of default by Lessee to the
sublessee.  Such sublessee shall have the right to cure a default of Lessee
within three (3) days after service of said notice of default upon such
sublessee, and the sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset
from and against Lessee for any such defaults cured by the sublessee.

    12.5  LESSOR'S EXPENSES. In the event Lessee shall assign or sublet the
Premises or request the consent of Lessor to any assignment or subletting or
if Lessee shall request the consent of Lessor for any act Lessee proposes to
do then Lessee shall pay Lessor's reasonable costs and expenses incurred in
connection therewith, including attorneys', architects', engineers' or other
consultants' fees.

    12.6  CONDITIONS TO CONSENT. Lessor reserves the right to condition any
approval to assign or sublet upon Lessor's determination that (a) the
proposed assignee or sublessee shall conduct a business on the Premises of a
quality substantially equal to that of Lessee and consistent with the general
character of the other occupants of the Office Building Project and not in
violation of any exclusives or rights then held by other tenants, and (b) the
proposed assignee or sublessee be at least as financially responsible as
Lessee was expected to be at the time of the execution of this Lease or of
such assignment or subletting, whichever is

greater.

13. DEFAULT; REMEDIES.

    13.1  DEFAULT. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
shall constitute a material default of this Lease by Lessee:

          (a) The vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Lessee. Vacation
of the Premises shall include the failure to occupy the Premises for a
continuous period of sixty (60) days or more, whether or not the rent is paid.

          (b) The breach by Lessee of any of the covenants, conditions or
provisions of paragraphs 7.3(a), (b) or (d) (alterations), 12.1 (assignment
or subletting), 13.1(a) (vacation or abandonment), 13.1(e) (insolvency),
13.1(f) (false statement), 16(a) (estoppel certificate), 30(b)
(subordination), 33 (auctions), or 41.1 (easements), all of which are hereby
deemed to be material, non-curable defaults without the necessity of any
notice by Lessor to Lessee thereof.

          (c) The failure by Lessee to make any payment of rent or any other
payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder, as and when due, where such
failure shall continue for a period of three (3) days after written notice
thereof from Lessor to Lessee.  In the event that Lessor serves Lessee with a
Notice to Pay Rent or Quit pursuant to applicable Unlawful Detainer statutes
such Notice to Pay Rent or Quit shall also constitute the notice required by
this subparagraph.

          (d) The failure by Lessee to observe or perform any of the
covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed
by Lessee other than those referenced in subparagraphs (b) and (c), above,
where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after
written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that if the
nature of Lessee's noncompliance is such that more than thirty (30) days are
reasonably required for its cure, then Lessee shall not be deemed to be in
default if Lessee commenced such cure within said thirty (30) day period and
thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion. To the extent
permitted by law, such thirty (30) day notice shall constitute the sole and
exclusive notice required to be given to Lessee under applicable Unlawful
Detainer statutes.

          (e) (i) The making by Lessee of any general arrangement or general
assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) Lessee becoming a "debtor" as
defined in 11 U.S.C. Section 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in
the case of a petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within
sixty (60) days; (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take
possession of substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or
of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to
Lessee within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other
judicial seizure of substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the
Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not
discharged within thirty (30) days. In the event that any provision of this
paragraph 13.1(e) is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be
of no force or effect.

          (f) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement given to
Lessor by Lessee, or its successor in interest or by any guarantor of
Lessee's obligation hereunder, was materially false.

    13.2  REMEDIES. In the event of any material default or breach of this
Lease by Lessee, Lessor may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or
demand and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy
which Lessor may have by reason of such default:

          (a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by any
lawful means, in which case this Lease and the term hereof shall terminate
and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor.
In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages
incurred by Lessor by reason of Lessee's default including, but not limited
to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises; expenses of reletting,
including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonabe
attorneys' fees, and any real estate commission actually paid; the worth at
the time of award by the court having jurisdiction thereof of the amount by
which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of such
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the same period that Lessee
proves could be reasonably avoided; that portion of the leasing commission
paid by Lessor pursuant to paragraph 15 applicable to the unexpired term of
this Lease.

          (b) Maintain Lessee's right to possession in which case this Lease
shall continue in effect whether or not Lessee shall have vacated or
abandoned the Premises. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all
of Lessor's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to
recover the rent as it becomes due hereunder.

          (c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor
under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are
located. Unpaid installments of rent and other unpaid monetary obligations of
Lessee under the terms of this Lease shall bear interest from the date due at
the maximum rate then allowable by law.

    13.3  DEFAULT BY LESSOR. Lessor shall not be in default unless Lessor
fails to perform obligations required of Lessor within a reasonable time, but
in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Lessee to
Lessor and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the
Premises whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to
Lessee in writing, specifying wherein Lessor has failed to perform such
obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor's obligation is
such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance then Lessor
shall not be in default if Lessor commences performance within such 30-day
period and thereafter diligently pursues the same to completion.

    13.4  LATE CHARGES. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by
Lessee to Lessor of Base Rent, Lessee's Share of Operating Expense Increase
or other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated
by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to
ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and
accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the
terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Office Building Project.
Accordingly, if any installment of Base Rent, Operating Expense Increase, or
any other sum due from Lessee shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor's
designee within ten (10) days after such amount shall be due, then, without
any requirement for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late
charge equal to 6% of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such
late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor
will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such late
charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's default
with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any
of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.

14. CONDEMNATION. If the Premises or any portion thereof or the Office
Building Project are taken under the power of eminent domain, or sold under
the threat of the exercise of said power (all of which are herein called
"condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the
date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first
occurs; provided that is so much of the Premises or the Office Building
Project are taken by such condemnation as would substantially and adversely
affect the operation and profitability of Lessee's business conducted from
the Premises, Lessee shall have the option, to be exercised only in writing
within thirty (30) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice
of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within thirty (30) days
after the condemning authority shall have taken possession), to terminate
this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If
Lessee does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this
Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises
remaining, except that the rent and Lessee's Share of Operating Expense
Increase shall be reduced in the proportion that the floor area of the
Premises taken bears to the total floor area of the Premises. Common Areas
taken shall be excluded from the Common Areas usable by Lessee and no
reduction of rent shall occur with respect thereto or by reason thereof.
Lessor shall have the option in its sole discretion to terminate this Lease
as of the taking of possession by the condemning authority, by giving written
notice to Lessee of such election within thirty (30) days after receipt of
notice of a taking by condemnation of any part of the Premises or the Office
Building Project. Any award for the taking of all or any part of the Premises
or the Office Building Project under the power of eminent domain or any
payment made under threat of the exercise of such power shall be the property
of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution in
value of the leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages;
provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any separate award for
loss of or damage to Lessee's trade fixtures, removable personal property and
unamortized tenant improvements that have been paid for by Lessee. For that
purpose the cost of such improvements shall be amortized over the original
term of this Lease excluding any options. In the event that this Lease is not
terminated by reason of such condemnation, Lessor shall to the extent of
severance damages received by Lessor in connection with such condemnation,
repair any damage to the Premises caused by such condemnation except to the
extent that Lessee has been reimbursed therefor by the condemning authority.
Lessee shall pay any amount in excess of such severance damages required to
complete such repair.

15. BROKER'S FEE.

    (a) The brokers involved in this transaction are n/a as "listing broker"
and n/a as "cooperating broker," licensed real estate broker(s). A
"cooperating broker" is defined as any broker other than the listing broker
entitled to a share of any commission arising under this Lease. Upon
execution of this Lease by both parties, Lessor shall pay to said brokers
jointly, or in such separate shares as they may mutually designate in
writing, a fee as set forth in a separate agreement between Lessor and said
broker(s), or in the event there is no separate agreement between Lessor and
said broker(s), the sum of $-0-, for brokerage services rendered by said
broker(s) to Lessor in this transaction.

    (b) Lessor further agrees that (i) if Lessee exercises any Option, as
defined in paragraph 39.1 of this Lease, which is granted to Lessee under
this Lease, or

any subsequently granted option which is substantially similar to an Option
granted to Lessee under this Lease, or (ii) if Lessee acquires any rights to
the Premises or other premises described in this Lease which are
substantially similar to what Lessee would have acquired had an Option herein
granted to Lessee been exercised, or (iii) if Lessee remains in possession of
the Premises after the expiration of the term of this Lease after having
failed to exercise an Option, or (iv) if said broker(s) are the procuring
cause of any other lease or sale entered into between the parties pertaining
to the Premises and/or any adjacent property in which Lessor has an interest,
or (v) if the Base Rent is increased, whether by agreement or operation of an
escalation clause contained herein, then as to any of said transactions or
rent increases, Lessor shall pay said broker(s) a fee in accordance with the
schedule of said broker(s) in effect at the time of execution of this Lease.
Said fee shall be paid at the time of such increased rental is determined.

    (c) Lessor agrees to pay said fee not only on behalf of Lessor but also
on behalf of any person, corporation, association, or other entity having an
ownership interest in said real property or any part thereof, when such fee
is due hereunder. Any transferee of Lessor's interest in this Lease, whether
such transfer is by agreement or by operation of law, shall be deemed to have
assumed Lessor's obligation under this paragraph 15. Each listing and
cooperating broker shall be a third party beneficiary of the provisions of
this paragraph 15 to the extent of their interest in any commission arising
under this Lease and may enforce that right directly against Lessor;
provided, however, that all brokers having a right to any part of such total
commission shall be a necessary party to any suit with respect thereto.

    (d) Lessee and Lessor each represent and warrant to the other that
neither has had any dealings with any person, firm, broker or finder (other
than the person(s), if any, whose names are set forth in paragraph 15(a),
above) in connection with the negotiation of this Lease and/or the
consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby, and no other broker or
other person, firm or entity is entitled to any commission or finder's fee in
connection with said transaction and Lessee and Lessor do each hereby
indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any costs, expenses,
attorneys' fees or liability for compensation or charges which may be claimed
by any such unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any
dealings or actions of the indemnifying party.

16. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.

    (a) Each party (as "responding party") shall at any time upon not less
than ten (10) days' prior written notice from the other party ("requesting
party") execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party a statement
in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and
certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and
the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and
(ii) acknowledging that there are not, to the responding party's knowledge,
any uncured defaults on the part of the requesting party, or specifying such
defaults if any are claimed. Any such statement may be conclusively relied
upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Office Building
Project or of the business of Lessee.

    (b) At the requesting party's option, the failure to deliver such
statement within such time shall be a material default of this Lease by the
party who is to respond, without any further notice to such party, or it
shall be conclusive upon such party that (i) this Lease is in full force and
effect, without modification except as may be represented by the requesting
party, (ii) there are no uncured defaults in the requesting party's
performance, and (iii) if Lessor is the requesting party, not more than one
month's rent has been paid in advance.

    (c) If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Office Building
Project, or any part thereof, Lessee hereby agrees to deliver to any lender
or purchaser designated by Lessor such financial statements of Lessee as may
be reasonably required by such lender or purchaser. Such statements shall
include the past three (3) years' financial statements of Lessee. All such
financial statements shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser
in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth.

17. LESSOR'S LIABILITY. The term "Lessor" as used herein shall mean only the
owner or owners, at the time in question, of the fee title or a lessee's
interest in a ground lease of the Office Building Project, and except as
expressly provided in paragraph 15, in the event of any transfer of such
title or interest, Lessor herein named (and in case of any subsequent
transfers then the grantor) shall be relieved from and after the date of such
transfer of all liability as respects Lessor's obligations thereafter to be
performed, provided that any funds in the hands of Lessor or the then grantor
at the time of such transfer, in which Lessee has an interest, shall be
delivered to the grantee. The obligations contained in this Lease to be
performed by Lessor shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Lessor's
successors and assigns, only during their respective periods of ownership.

18. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction shall in no way affect the
validity of any other provision hereof.

19. INTEREST ON PAST-DUE OBLIGATIONS. Except as expressly herein provided,
any amount due to Lessor not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum
rate then allowable by law or judgments from the date due. Payment of such
interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Lessee under this Lease;
provided, however, that interest shall not be payable on late charges
incurred by Lessee nor on any amounts upon which late charges are paid by
Lessee.

20. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence with respect to the obligations
to be performed under this Lease.

21. ADDITIONAL RENT. All monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the
terms of this Lease, including but not limited to Lessee's Share of Operating
Expense Increase and any other expenses payable by Lessee hereunder shall be
deemed to be rent.

22. INCORPORATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS; AMENDMENTS. This Lease contains all
agreements of the parties with respect to any matter mention herein. No prior
or contemporaneous agreement or understanding pertaining to any such matter
shall be effective. This Lease may be modified in writing only, signed by the
parties in interest at the time of the modification. Except as otherwise
stated in this Lease, Lessee hereby acknowledges that neither real estate
broker listed in paragraph 15 hereof nor any cooperating broker on this
transaction nor the Lessor or any employee or agents of any of said persons
has made any oral or written warranties or representations to Lessee relative
to the condition or use by Lessee of the Premises or the Office Building
Project and Lessee acknowledges that Lessee assumes all responsibility
regarding the Occupational Safety Health Act, the legal use and adaptability
of the Premises and the compliance thereof with all applicable laws and
regulations in effect during the term of this Lease.

23. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be
in writing and may be given by personal delivery or by certified or
registered mail, and shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered or
addressed to Lessee or to Lessor at the address noted below or adjacent to
the signature of the respective parties, as the case may be. Mailed notices
shall be deemed given upon actual receipt at the address required, or
forty-eight hours following deposit in the mail, postage prepaid, whichever
first occurs. Either party may by notice to the other specify a different
address for notice purposes except that upon Lessee's taking possession of
the Premises, the Premises shall constitute Lessee's address for notice
purposes. A copy of all notices required or permitted to be given to Lessor
hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at such
addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter designate by notice to
Lessee.

24. WAIVERS. No waiver by Lessor of any provision hereof shall be deemed a
waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Lessee of
the same or any other provision. Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any act
shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's consent
to or approval of any subsequent act by Lessee. The acceptance of rent
hereunder by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee
of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the
particular rent so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such
preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent.

25. RECORDING. Either Lessor or Lessee shall, upon request of the other,
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a "short form" memorandum of
this Lease for recording purposes.

26. HOLDING OVER. If Lessee, with Lessor's consent, remains in possession of
the Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the term hereof,
such occupancy shall be a tenancy from month to month upon all the provisions
of this Lease pertaining to the obligations of Lessee, except that the rent
payable shall be two hundred percent (200%) of the rent payable immediately
preceding the termination date of this Lease, and all Options, if any,
granted under the terms of this Lease shall be deemed terminated and be of no
further effect during said month to month tenancy.

27. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies
at law or in equity.

28. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. Each provision of this Lease performable by
Lessee shall be deemed both a covenant and a condition.

29. BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW. Subject to any provisions hereof
restricting assignment or subletting by Lessee and subject to the provision
of paragraph 17, this Lease shall bind the parties, their personal
representatives, successors and assigns. This Lease shall be governed by the
laws of the State where the Office Building Project is located and any
litigation concerning this Lease between the parties hereto shall be
initiated in the county in which the Office Building Project is located.

30. SUBORDINATION.

    (a) This Lease, and any Option or right of first refusal granted hereby,
at Lessor's option, shall be subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed
of trust, or any other hypothecation or security now or hereafter placed upon
the Office Building Project and to any and all advances made on the security
thereof and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and
extensions thereof. Notwithstanding such subordination, Lessee's right to
quiet possession of the Premises shall not be disturbed if Lessee is not in
default and so long as Lessee shall pay the rent and observe and perform all
of the provisions of this Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated
pursuant to its terms. If any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect
to have this Lease and any Options granted hereby prior to the lien of its
mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, and shall give written notice
thereof to Lessee, this Lease and such Option shall be deemed prior to such
mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, whether this Lease or such Options
are dated prior or subsequent to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust or
ground lease or the date of recording thereof.

    (b) Lessee agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate an
attornment, a subordination, or to make this Lease or any Option granted
herein prior to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, as
the case may be. Lessee's failure to execute such documents within ten (10)
days after written demand shall constitute a material default by Lessee
hereunder without further notice to Lessee or, at Lessor's option, Lessor
shall execute such documents on behalf of Lessee as Lessees'
attorney-in-fact. Lessee does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint
Lessor as Lessee's attorney-in-fact and in Lessee's name, place and stead, to
execute such documents in accordance with this paragraph 30(b).

31. ATTORNEYS' FEES.

    31.1  If either party or the broker(s) named herein bring an action to
enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the prevailing party in
any such action, trial, or appeal thereon, shall be entitled to his reasonable
attorney's fees to be paid by the losing party as fixed by the court in the
same or a separate suit, and whether or not such action is pursued to
decision or judgment. The provisions of this paragraph shall inure to the
benefit of the broker named herein who seeks to enforce a right hereunder.

    31.2  The attorneys' fee award shall not be computed in accordance with
any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all
attorneys' fees reasonably incurred in good faith.

    31.3  Lessor shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and all
other costs and expenses incurred in the preparation and service of notices of
default and consultations in connection therewith, whether or not a legal
transaction is subsequently commenced in connection with such default.

32. LESSOR'S ACCESS.

    32.1  Lessor and Lessor's agents shall have the right to enter the
Premises at reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same,
performing any services required of Lessor, showing the same to prospective
purchasers, lenders, or lessees, taking such safety measures, erecting such
scaffolding or other necessary structures, making such alterations, repairs,
improvements or additions to the Premises or to the Office Building Project
as Lessor may reasonably deem necessary or desirable and the erecting, using
and maintaining of utilities, services, pipes and conduits through the
Premises and/or other premises as long as there is no material adverse effect
to Lessee's use of the Premises. Lessor may at any time place on or about the
Premises or the Building any ordinary "For Sale" signs and Lessor may at any
time during the last 120 days of the term hereof place on or about the
Premises any ordinary "For Lease" signs.

    32.3  Lessor shall have the right to retain keys to the Premises and to
unlock all doors in or upon the Premises other than to files, vaults and
safes, and in the case of emergency to enter the Premises by any reasonably

business in connection therewith.

Lessor of any or all of such subtenancies.

wherever in this Lease the consent of one party is required to an act of the
other party such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Lessor represent and warrant to Lessee that they are fully authorized and
legally capable of executing this Lease on behalf of Lessor and that such
execution is binding upon all parties holding an ownership interest in the
Office Building Project.

involuntarily, by or to any person or entity other than Lessee; provided,
however, that an Option may be exercised by or assigned to any Lessee
Affiliate as defined in paragraph 12.2 of this Lease. The Options, if any,
herein granted to Lessee are not assignable separate and apart from this
Lease, nor may any Option be separated from this Lease in any manner, either
by reservation or otherwise.

    39.3  MULTIPLE OPTIONS. In the event that Lessee has any multiple
options to extend or renew this Lease a later option cannot be exercised
unless the prior option to extend or renew this Lease has been so exercised.

defaults are cured, during the 12 month period of time immediately prior to

default under paragraph 13.1(c), or paragraph 13.1(d), whether or not the
defaults are cured, or (iv) if Lessee has committed any non-curable breach,

benefit of the Premises or the Office Building Project.  Lessee assumes all
responsibility for the protection of Lessee, its agents, and invitees and the

Office Building Project or on pole signs in the Common Areas;

desirable, and to cause the recordation of Parcel Maps and restrictions, so
long as such easements, rights, dedications, Maps and restrictions do not
unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Lessee.  Lessee shall
sign any of the aforementioned documents upon request of Lessor and failure
to do so shall constitute a material default of this Lease by Lessee without
the need for further notice to Lessee.

    41.2  The obstruction of Lessee's view, air, or light by any structure
erected in the vicinity of the Building, whether by Lessor or third parties,

any amount or sum of money to be paid by one party to the other under the

asserted shall have the right to make payment "under protest" and such
payment shall not be regarded as a voluntary payment, and there shall survive
the right on the part of said party to institute suit for recovery of such
sum.  If it shall be adjudged that there was no legal obligation on the part
of said party to pay such sum or any part thereof, said party shall be
entitled to recover such sum or so much thereof as it was not legally
required to pay under the provisions of this Lease.

43. AUTHORITY. If Lessee is a corporation, trust, or general or limited
partnership, Lessee, and each individual executing this Lease on behalf of
such entity represent and warrant that such individual is duly authorized to

corporation, trust or partnership, Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days
after execution of this Lease, deliver to Lessor evidence of such authority
satisfactory to Lessor.

Addenda of this Lease and the typewritten or handwritten provisions, if any,

modifications to this Lease as may be reasonably required by an institutional
