ARTICLE TWO: LEASE TERM

     Section 2.01.  LEASE OF PROPERTY FOR LEASE TERM.  Landlord leases the
Property to Tenant and Tenant leases the Property from Landlord for the Lease
Term. The Lease Term is for the period stated in Section 1.05 above and shall
begin and end on the dates specified in Section 1.05 above, unless the beginning
or end of the Lease Term is changed under any provision of this Lease.  The

<PAGE>

                                                                              3

"Commencement Date" shall be the date specified in Section 1.05 above for the
beginning of the Lease Term, unless advanced or delayed under any provision of
this Lease.

     Section 2.02.  DELAY IN COMMENCEMENT.  Landlord shall not be liable to
Tenant if Landlord does not deliver possession of the Property to Tenant on the
Commencement Date.  Landlord's non-delivery of the Property to Tenant on that
date shall not affect this Lease or the obligations of Tenant under this Lease
except that the Commencement Date shall be delayed until Landlord delivers
possession of the Property to Tenant and the Lease Term shall be extended for a
period equal to the delay in delivery of possession of the Property to Tenant,
plus the number of days necessary to end the Lease Term on the last day of a
month.  If Landlord does not deliver possession of the Property to Tenant within
sixty (60) days after the Commencement Date, Tenant may elect to cancel this
Lease by giving written notice to Landlord within ten (10) days after the sixty
(60) -day period ends.  If Tenant gives such notice, the Lease shall be
cancelled and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further obligations to
the other.  If Tenant does not give such notice, Tenant's right to cancel the
Lease shall expire and the Lease Term shall commence upon the delivery of
possession of the Property to Tenant.  If delivery of possession of the Property
to Tenant is delayed, Landlord and Tenant shall, upon such delivery, execute an
amendment to this Lease setting forth the actual Commencement Date and
expiration date of the Lease.  Failure to execute such amendment shall not
affect the actual Commencement Date and expiration date of the Lease.

     Section 2.03.  EARLY OCCUPANCY.  If Tenant occupies the Property prior to
the Commencement Date, Tenant's occupancy of the Property shall be subject to
all of the provisions of this Lease.  Early occupancy of the Property shall not
advance the expiration date of this Lease.  Tenant shall pay Base Rent and all
other charges specified in this Lease for the early occupancy period.

     Section 2.04.  HOLDING OVER.  Tenant shall vacate the Property upon the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.  Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for and indemnity Landlord against all damages which Landlord incurs
from Tenant's delay in vacating the Property.  If Tenant does not vacate the
Property upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease and Landlord
thereafter accepts rent from Tenant, Tenant's occupancy of the Property shall
be a "month-to-month" tenancy, subject to all of the terms of this Lease
applicable to a month-to-month tenancy, except that the Base Rent then in
effect shall be increased by twenty-five percent (25%).

ARTICLE THREE: BASE RENT

     Section 3.01. TIME AND MANNER OF PAYMENT.  Upon execution of this Lease,
Tenant shall pay Landlord the Base Rent in the amount stated in Paragraph 1. 12
(a) above for the first month of the Lease Term.  On the first day of the second
month of the Lease Term and each month thereafter, Tenant shall pay Landlord the
Base Rent, in advance, without offset, deduction or prior demand.  The Base Rent
shall be payable at Landlord's address or at such other place as Landlord may
designate in writing.

                                                                              4

     Section 3.02.  COST OF LIVING INCREASES.  The Base Rent shall be increased
on each date (the "Rental Adjustment Date") stated in Paragraph 1.12(a) above in
accordance with the increase in the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of
Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (all items for
the geographical Statistical Area in which the Property is located on the basis
of 1982-1984 = 100) (the "Index") as follows:

     (a) The Base Rent (the "Comparison Base Rent") in effect immediately
before each Rental Adjustment Date shall be increased by the percentage that
the Index has increased from the date (the "Comparison Date") on which
payment of the Comparison Base Rent began through the month in which the
applicable Rental Adjustment Date occurs.  The Base Rent shall not be reduced
by reason of such computation.  Landlord shall notify Tenant of each increase
by a written statement which shall include the Index for the applicable
Comparison Date, the Index for the applicable Rental Adjustment Date, the
percentage increase between those two Indices, and the new Base Rent.  Any
increase in the Base Rent provided for in this Section 3.02 shall be subject
to any minimum or maximum increase, if provided for in Paragraph 1.12 (a).

     (b) Tenant shall pay the new Base Rent from the applicable Rental
Adjustment Date until the next Rental Adjustment Date.  Landlord's notice may
be given after the applicable Rental Adjustment Date of the increase, and
Tenant shall pay Landlord the accrued rental adjustment for the months
elapsed between the effective date of the increase and Landlord's notice of
such increase within ten (10) days after Landlord's notice.  If the format or
components of the Index are materially changed after the Commencement Date,
Landlord shall substitute an index which is published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics or similar agency and which is most nearly equivalent to the Index
in effect on the Commencement Date. The substitute index shall be used to
calculate the increase in the Base Rent unless Tenant objects to such index
in writing within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlord's notice.  If
Tenant objects, Landlord and Tenant shall submit the selection of the
substitute index for binding arbitration in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the American Arbitration Association at its office closest to
the Property.  The costs of arbitration shall be borne equally by Landlord
and Tenant.

     Section 3.04. [deleted]

ARTICLE FOUR: OTHER CHARGES PAYABLE BY TENANT

     Section 4.01. ADDITIONAL RENT. All charges payable by Tenant other than
Base Rent are called "Additional Rent."  Unless this Lease provides otherwise,
Tenant shall pay all Additional Rent then due with the next monthly installment
of Base Rent.  The term "rent" shall mean Base Rent and Additional Rent.

     Section 4.02. PROPERTY TAXES.

<PAGE>

                                                                              5

     (a)  REAL PROPERTY TAXES.  Landlord shall pay the "Base Real Property
Taxes" on the Property during the Lease Term.  Base Real Property Taxes are real
property taxes applicable to the Property as shown on the tax bill for the most
recent tax fiscal year ending prior to the Commencement Date.  However, if the
structures on the Property are not completed by the tax lien date of such tax
fiscal year, the Base Real Property Taxes are the taxes shown on the first tax
bill showing the full assessed value of the Property after completion of the
structures.  Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount, if any, by which the real
property taxes during the Lease Term exceed the Base Real Property Taxes.
Subject to Paragraph 4.02(c), Tenant shall make such payments within fifteen
(I5) days after receipt of Landlord's statement showing the amount and
computation of such increase. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for any real
property taxes paid by Tenant covering any period of time prior to or after the
Lease Term.

     (b) DEFINITION OF REAL PROPERTY TAX. "Real property tax" means: (i) any
fee, license fee, license tax, business license fee, commercial rental tax,
levy, charge, assessment, penalty or tax imposed by any taxing authority against
the Property; (ii) any tax on the Landlord's right to receive, or the receipt
of, rent or income from the Property or against Landlord's business of leasing
the Property; (iii) any tax or charge for fire protection, streets, sidewalks,
road maintenance, refuse or other services provided to the Property by any
governmental agency; (iv) any tax imposed upon this transaction or based upon a
re-assessment of the Property due to a change of ownership, as defined by
applicable law, or other transfer of all or part of Landlord's interest in the
Property; and (v) any charge or fee replacing any tax previously included within
the definition of real property tax.  "Real properly tax" does not, however,
include Landlord's federal or state income, franchise, inheritance or estate
taxes.

     (c) JOINT ASSESSMENT.  If the Property is not separately assessed, Landlord
shall reasonably determine Tenant's share of the real property tax payable by
Tenant under Paragraph 4.02 (a) from the assessor's worksheets or other
reasonably available information.  Tenant shall pay such share to Landlord
within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlord's written statement.

     (d) PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES.

          (i) Tenant shall pay all taxes charged against trade fixtures,
furnishings, equipment or any other personal property belonging to Tenant.
Tenant shall try to have personal property taxed separately from the Property.

          (ii) If any of Tenant's personal property is taxed with the Property,
Tenant shall pay Landlord the taxes for the personal property within fifteen
(15) days after Tenant receives a written statement from Landlord for such
personal property taxes.

     Section 4.03. UTILITIES.  Tenant shall pay, directly to the appropriate
supplier, the cost of all natural gas, heat, light, power, sewer service,
telephone, water, refuse disposal and other utilities and services supplied to
the Property.  However, if any services or utilities are jointly metered with
other

<PAGE>

                                                                              6

property, Landlord shall make a reasonable determination of Tenant's
proportionate share of the cost of such utilities and services and Tenant shall
pay such share to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlord's
written statement.

     Section 4.04. INSURANCE POLICIES.

     (a) LIABILITY INSURANCE. During the Lease Term, Tenant shall maintain a
policy of commercial general liability insurance (sometimes known as broad form
comprehensive general liability insurance) insuring Tenant against liability for
bodily injury, property damage (including loss of use of property) and personal
injury arising out of the operation, use or occupancy of the Property.  Tenant
shall name Landlord as an additional insured under such policy.  The initial
amount of such insurance shall be One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per
occurrence and shall be subject to periodic increase based upon inflation,
increased liability awards, recommendation of Landlord's professional insurance
advisers and other relevant factors.  The liability insurance obtained by Tenant
under this Paragraph 4.04(a) shall (i) be primary and non-contributing and (ii)
contain cross-liability endorsements. [deleted and initialed]  The amount and
coverage of such insurance shall not limit Tenant's liability nor relieve Tenant
of any other obligation under this Lease.  Landlord may also obtain
comprehensive public liability insurance in an amount and with coverage
determined by Landlord insuring Landlord against liability arising out of
ownership, operation, use or occupancy of the Property.  The policy obtained by
Landlord shall not be contributory and shall not provide primary insurance.

     (b) PROPERTY AND RENTAL INCOME INSURANCE.  During the Lease Term,
Landlord shall maintain policies of insurance covering loss of or damage to
the Property in the full amount of its replacement value.  Such policy shall
contain an Inflation Guard Endorsement and shall provide protection against
all perils included within the classification of fire, extended coverage,
vandalism, malicious mischief, special extended perils (all risk), sprinkler
leakage and any other perils which Landlord deems reasonably necessary.
Landlord shall have the right to obtain flood and earthquake insurance if
required by any lender holding a security interest in the Property.  Landlord
shall not obtain insurance for Tenant's fixtures or equipment or building
improvements installed by Tenant on the Property.  During the Lease Term,
Landlord shall also maintain a rental income insurance policy, with loss
payable to Landlord, in an amount equal to one year's Base Rent, plus
estimated real property taxes and insurance premiums. Tenant shall be liable
for the payment of any deductible amount under Landlord's or Tenant's
insurance policies maintained pursuant to this Section 4.04, in an amount not
to exceed Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000).  Tenant shall not do or permit
anything to be done which invalidates any such insurance policies.

     (c) PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS.

          (i) Landlord shall pay the "Base Premiums" for the insurance policies
maintained by Landlord under Paragraph 4.04(b). If the Property has been
previously fully occupied, the "Base Premiums" are the insurance premiums paid
during or applicable to the last twelve (12) months of

<PAGE>

                                                                              7

such prior occupancy.  If the Property has not been previously fully occupied or
has been occupied for less than twelve (12) months, the Base Premiums are the
lowest annual premiums reasonably obtainable for the required insurance for the
Property as of the Commencement Date.

          (ii) Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount, if any, by which the
insurance premiums for all policies maintained by Landlord under Paragraph
4.04(b) have increased over the Base Premiums, whether such increases result
from the nature of Tenant's occupancy, any act or omission of Tenant, the
requirement of any lender referred to in Article Eleven (Protection of Lenders),
the increased value of the Property or general rate increases.  However, if
Landlord substantially increases the amount of insurance carried or the
percentage of insured value after the period during which the Base Premiums were
calculated, Tenant shall only pay Landlord the amount of increased premiums
which would have been charged by the insurance carrier if the amount of
insurance or percentage of insured value had not been substantially increased by
Landlord.  This adjustment in the amount due from Tenant shall be made only once
during the Lease Term.  Thereafter, Tenant shall be obligated to pay the full
amount of any additional increases in the insurance premiums, including
increases resulting from any further increases in the amount of insurance or
percentage of insured value.  Subject to Section 4.05, Tenant shall pay Landlord
the increases over the Base Premiums within fifteen (15) days after receipt by
Tenant of a copy of the premium statement or other evidence of the amount due.
If the insurance policies maintained by Landlord cover improvements or real
property other than the Property, Landlord shall also deliver to Tenant a
statement of the amount of the premiums applicable to the Property showing, in
reasonable detail, how such amount was computed.  If the Lease Term expires
before the expiration of the insurance period, Tenant's liability shall be pro
rated on an annual basis.

     (d) GENERAL INSURANCE PROVISIONS.

          (i) Any insurance which Tenant is required to maintain under this
Lease shall include a provision which requires the insurance carrier to give
Landlord not less than thirty (30) days' written notice prior to any
cancellation or modification of such coverage.

          (ii) If Tenant fails to deliver any policy, certificate or renewal to
Landlord required under this Lease within the prescribed time period or if any
such policy is cancelled or modified during the Lease Term without Landlord's
consent, Landlord may obtain such insurance, in which case Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for the cost of such insurance within fifteen (15) days after
receipt of a statement that indicates the cost of such insurance.

          (iii) Tenant shall maintain all insurance required under this Lease
with companies holding a "General Policy Rating" of A-12 or better, as set forth
in the most current issue of "Best Key Rating Guide".  Landlord and Tenant
acknowledge the insurance markets are rapidly changing and that insurance in the
form and amounts described in this Section 4.04 may not be available in the
future.  Tenant acknowledges that the insurance described in this Section 4.04
is for the primary benefit of Landlord.  If at any time during the Lease Term,
Tenant is unable to maintain the insurance

<PAGE>

                                                                              8

required under the Lease, Tenant shall nevertheless maintain insurance coverage
which is customary and commercially reasonable in the insurance industry for
Tenant's type of business, as that coverage may change from time to time.
Landlord makes no representation as to the adequacy of such insurance to protect
Landlord's or Tenant's interests.  Therefore, Tenant shall obtain any such
additional property or liability insurance which Tenant deems necessary to
protect Landlord and Tenant.

          (iv) [deleted and initialled]  Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive
any and all rights of recovery against the other, or against the officers,
employees, agents or representatives of the other, for loss of or damage to its
property or the property of others under its control, if such loss or damage is
covered by any insurance policy in force (whether or not described in this
Lease) or required to be covered hereunder [initialled] at the time of such loss
or damage.  Upon obtaining the required policies of insurance, Landlord and
Tenant shall give notice to the insurance carriers of this  mutual waiver of
subrogation.

     Section 4.05.  COMMON AREAS; USE, MAINTENANCE AND COSTS.

     (a) Common Areas.   As used in this Lease, "Common Areas" shall mean all
areas within the Project which are available for the common use of tenants of
the Project and which are not leased or held for the exclusive use of Tenant or
other tenants, including, but not limited to, parking areas, driveways,
sidewalks, loading areas, access roads, corridors, landscaping and planted
areas.  Landlord, from time to time, may change the size, location, nature and
use of any of the Common Areas, convert Common Areas into leasable areas,
construct additional parking facilities (including parking structures) in the
Common Areas, and increase or decrease Common Area land and/or facilities.
Tenant acknowledges that such activities may result in inconvenience to Tenant.
Such activities and changes are permitted if they do not materially affect
Tenant's use of the Property.

     (b)  USE OF COMMON AREAS.  Tenant shall have the nonexclusive right (in
common with other tenants and all others to whom Landlord has granted or may
grant such rights) to use the Common Areas for the purposes intended, subject to
such reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord may establish from time to
time.  Tenant shall abide by such rules and regulations
and shall use its best effort to cause others who use the Common Areas with
Tenant's express or implied permission to abide by Landlord's rules and
regulations.  At any time, Landlord may close any Common Areas to perform any
acts in the Common Areas as, in Landlord's judgment, are desirable to improve
the Project.  Tenant shall not interfere with the rights of Landlord, other
tenants or any other person entitled to use the Common Areas.

     (c) SPECIFIC PROVISION RE: VEHICLE PARKING.   Tenant shall be entitled to
use the number of vehicle parking spaces in the Project allocated to Tenant in
Section 1.11 of the Lease without paying any additional rent.  Tenant's parking
shall not be reserved and shall be limited to vehicles no larger than standard
size automobiles or pickup utility vehicles.  Tenant shall not cause large
trucks or other large vehicles to be parked within the Project or on the
adjacent public streets.  Temporary parking

<PAGE>

                                                                              9

of large delivery vehicles in the Project may be permitted by the rules and
regulations established by Landlord.  Vehicles shall be parked only in striped
parking spaces and not in driveways, loading areas or other locations not
specifically designated for parking.  Handicapped spaces shall only be used by
those legally permitted to use them.  If Tenant parks more vehicles in the
parking area than the number set forth in Section 1.11 of this Lease, such
conduct shall be a material breach of this Lease.  In addition to Landlord's
other remedies under the Lease, Tenant shall pay a daily charge determined by
Landlord for each such additional vehicle.

     (d) MAINTENANCE OF COMMON AREAS.  Landlord shall maintain the Common
Areas in good order, condition and repair and shall operate the Project, in
Landlord's sole discretion, as a first-class industrial/commercial real
property development.  Tenant shall pay Tenant's pro rata share (as
determined below) of all costs incurred by Landlord for the operation and
maintenance of the Common Areas.  Common Area costs include, but are not
limited to, costs and expenses for the following: gardening and landscaping;
utilities, water and sewage charges; maintenance of signs (other than
tenants' signs); premiums for liability, property damage, fire and other
types of casualty insurance on the Common Areas and worker's compensation
insurance; all property taxes and assessments levied on or attributable to
the Common Areas and all Common Area improvements; all personal property
taxes levied on or attributable to personal property used in connection with
the Common Areas; straight-line depreciation on personal property owned by
Landlord which is consumed in the operation or maintenance of the Common
Areas; rental or lease payments paid by Landlord for rented or leased
personal property used in the operation or maintenance of  the Common Areas;
fees for required licenses and permits; repairing, resurfacing, repaving,
maintaining, painting, fighting, cleaning, refuse removal, security and
similar items; reserves for roof replacement and exterior painting and other
appropriate reserves; and a reasonable allowance to Landlord for Landlord's
supervision of the Common Areas (not to exceed five percent (5%) of the gross
rents of the Project for the calendar year).  Landlord may cause any or all
of such services to be provided by third parties and the cost of such
services shall be included in Common Area costs.  Common Area costs shall not
include depreciation of real property which forms part of the Common Areas.

     (e) TENANT'S SHARE AND PAYMENT.  Tenant shall pay Tenant's annual pro rata
share of all Common Area costs (prorated for any fractional month) upon written
notice from Landlord that such costs are due and payable, and in any event prior
to delinquency.  Tenant's pro rata share shall be calculated by dividing the
square foot area of the Property, as set forth in Section 1.04 of the Lease, by
the aggregate square foot area of the Project which is leased or held for lease
by tenants, as of the date on which the computation is made.  Tenant's initial
pro rata share is set out in Paragraph 1.12(b).  Any changes in the Common Area
costs and/or the aggregate area of the Project leased or held for lease during
the Lease Term shall be effective on the first day of the month after such
change occurs.  Landlord may, at Landlord's election, estimate in advance and
charge to Tenant as Common Area costs, all real property taxes for which Tenant
is liable under Section 4.02 of the Lease, all insurance premiums for which
Tenant is liable under Section 4.04 of the Lease, all maintenance and repair
costs for which Tenant is liable under Section 6.04 of the Lease, and all other
Common Area costs payable by Tenant hereunder.  At Landlord's election, such
statements of

<PAGE>

                                                                             10

estimated Common Area costs shall be delivered monthly, quarterly or at any
other periodic Intervals to be designated by Landlord.  Landlord may adjust such
estimates at any time based upon Landlord's experience and reasonable
anticipation of costs.  Such adjustments shall be effective as of the next rent
payment date after notice to Tenant.  Within sixty (60) days after the end of
each calendar year of the Lease Term, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a
statement prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
setting forth, In reasonable detail, the Common Area costs paid or incurred by
Landlord during the preceding calendar year and Tenant's pro rata share.  Upon
receipt of such statement, there shall be an adjustment between Landlord and
Tenant, with payment to or credit given by Landlord (as the case may be) so that
Landlord shall receive the entire amount of Tenant's share of such costs and
expenses for such period.

     Section 4.06.  LATE CHARGES.   Tenant's failure to pay rent promptly may
cause Landlord to incur unanticipated costs.  The exact amount of such costs are
impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain.  Such costs may include, but
are not limited to, processing and accounting charges and late charges which may
be imposed on Landlord by any ground lease, mortgage or trust deed  encumbering
the Property.  Therefore, if Landlord does not receive any rent payment within
ten (10)  days after it becomes due, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge
equal to 6% of the overdue amount.  The parties agree that such late charge
represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by
reason of such late payment.

     Section 4.07.  INTEREST ON PAST DUE 0BLIGATIONS.  Any amount owed by Tenant
to Landlord which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of
fifteen percent (15%) per annum from the due date of such amount.  However,
interest shall not be payable on late charges to be paid by Tenant under this
Lease.  The payment of interest on such amounts shall not excuse or cure any
default by Tenant under this Lease.  If the interest rate specified in this
Lease is higher than the rate permitted by law, the interest rate is hereby
decreased to the maximum legal interest rate permitted by law.

     Section 4.08. IMPOUNDS FOR INSURANCE PREMIUMS AND REAL PROPERTY TAXES.  If
requested by any ground lessor or lender to whom Landlord has granted a security
interest in the Property, or if Tenant is more than ten (10) days late in the
payment of rent more than once in any consecutive twelve (12) month period,
Tenant shall pay Landlord a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual real
property taxes and insurance premiums payable by Tenant under this Lease,
together with each payment of Base Rent.  Landlord shall hold such payments in a
non-interest bearing impound account.  If unknown, Landlord shall reasonably
estimate the amount of real property taxes and insurance premiums when due.
Tenant shall pay any deficiency of funds in the impound account to Landlord upon
written request.  If Tenant defaults under this Lease, Landlord may apply any
funds in the impound account to any obligation then due under this Lease.

be generated, produced, brought upon, used, stored, treated or disposed of in or
about the Property by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, sublessees or
invitees without the prior written consent of Landlord.  Landlord shall be
entitled to take into account such other factors or facts as Landlord may

breach or default in the performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease;
(d) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty by Tenant under this Lease; or
(e) other negligent acts or omissions of Tenant.  Tenant shall defend Landlord

reasonably acceptable to Landlord and will be given the choice of 3 firms.  As a
material part of the consideration to Landlord, Tenant assumes all risk of
damage to property or injury to persons in or about the Property arising from
any cause, and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against
Landlord, except for any claim arising out of the Landlord's gross negligence or
willful

<PAGE>

                                                                             12

     Section 5.07. QUIET POSSESSION.  If Tenant pays the rent and complies with
all other terms of this Lease, Tenant may occupy and enjoy the Property for the

ARTICLE SIX:  CONDITION OF PROPERTY, MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS AND ALTERATIONS

     Section 6.01.  EXISTING CONDITIONS.  Tenant accepts the Property in its
condition as of the execution of the Lease, subject to all recorded matters,
laws, ordinances, and governmental regulations and orders.  Except as provided
herein, Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has
made any representation as to the condition of the Property or the suitability
of the Property for Tenant's intended use.  Tenant represents and warrants that
Tenant has made its own inspection of and inquiry regarding the condition of the
Property and is not relying on any representations of Landlord or any Broker
with respect thereto.  If Landlord or Landlord's Broker has provided a Property
Information Sheet or other Disclosure Statement regarding the Property, a copy
is attached as an exhibit to the Lease.

     Section 6.02.  EXEMPTION OF LANDLORD FROM LIABILITY.  Landlord shall not be
liable for any damage or injury to the person, business (or any loss of income
therefrom), goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Tenant, Tenant's
employees, invitees, customers or any other person in or about the Property,
whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from: (a) fire, steam,
electricity, water, gas or rain; (b) the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other
defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or
lighting fixtures or any other cause; (c) conditions arising in or about the
Property or upon other portions of the Project, or from other sources or places;
or (d) any act or omission of any other tenant of the Project.  Landlord shall
not be liable for any such damage or injury even though the cause of or the
means of repairing such damage or injury are not accessible to Tenant.  The
provisions of this Section 6.02 shall not, however, exempt Landlord from
liability for Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

     Section 6.03.  LANDLORD'S OBLIGATIONS.  Subject to the provisions of
Article Seven (Damage or Destruction) and Article Eight (Condemnation), and
except for damage caused by any act or

<PAGE>

                                                                             13

omission of Tenant, or Tenant's employees, agents, contractors or invitees,
Landlord shall keep the foundation, roof and structural portions of the
improvements on the Property in good order, condition and repair.  However,
Landlord shall not be obligated to maintain or repair windows, doors, plate
glass or the surfaces of walls.  Landlord shall not be obligated to make any
repairs under this Section 6.03 until a reasonable time after receipt of a
written notice from Tenant of the need for such repairs.  Tenant waives the
benefit of any present or future law which might give Tenant the right to repair
the Property at Landlord's expense or to terminate the Lease because of the
condition of the Property.

     Section 6.04.  TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS.

     (a) Except as provided in Section 6.03, Article Seven (Damage or
Destruction) and Article Eight (Condemnation), Tenant shall keep all portions of
the Property (including nonstructural, interior, systems and equipment) in good
order, condition and repair (including interior repainting and refinishing, as
needed).  If any portion of the Property or any system or equipment in the
Property which Tenant is obligated to repair cannot be-fully repaired or
restored, Tenant shall promptly replace such portion of the Property or system
or equipment in the Property, regardless of whether the benefit of such
replacement extends beyond the Lease Term; but if the benefit or useful life of
such replacement extends beyond the Lease Term (as such term may be extended by
exercise of any options), the useful life of such replacement shall be prorated
over the remaining portion of the Lease Term (as extended), and Tenant shall be
liable only for that portion of the cost which is applicable to the Lease Term
(as extended) and Landlord shall be responsible for the remainder.  This is not
applicable to any improvements made by Tenant.  Tenant shall maintain a
preventive maintenance contract providing for the regular inspection and
maintenance of the heating and air conditioning system by a licensed heating and
air conditioning contractor.  Landlord shall have the right, upon written notice
to Tenant, to undertake the responsibility for preventive maintenance of the
heating and air conditioning system at Tenant's expense.  In addition, Tenant
shall, at Tenant's expense, repair any damage to the roof, foundation or
structural portions of walls caused by Tenant's acts or omissions.  It is the
intention of Landlord and Tenant that, at all times during the Lease Term,
Tenant shall maintain the Property in an attractive, first-class and fully
operative condition.

     (b) Tenant shall fulfill all of Tenant's obligations under this Section
6.04 at Tenant's sole expense.  If Tenant fails to maintain, repair or replace
the Property as required by this Section 6.04, Landlord may, upon ten (10) days'
prior notice to Tenant (except that no notice shall be required in the case of
an emergency), enter the Property and perform such maintenance or repair
(including replacement, as needed) on behalf of Tenant.  In such case, Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred in performing such maintenance
or repair immediately upon demand.

     Section 6.05.  ALTERNATIONS, ADDITIONS, AND IMPROVEMENTS.

     (a) Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions, or improvements to
the Property without Landlord's prior written consent, not to be unreasonably
withheld, except for non-structural

<PAGE>

                                                                             14

alterations which do not exceed Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) in cost
cumulatively over the Lease Term and which are not visible from the outside of
any building of which the Property is part.  Landlord may require Tenant to
provide demolition and/or lien and completion bonds in form and amount
satisfactory to Landlord.  Tenant shall promptly remove any alterations,
additions, or improvements constructed in violation of this Paragraph 6.05(a)
upon Landlord's written request.  All alterations, additions, and improvements
shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner, in conformity with all
applicable laws and regulations, and by a contractor approved by Landlord.  Upon
completion of any such work, Tenant shall provide Landlord with "as built"
plans, copies of all construction contracts, and proof of payment for all labor
and materials.

     (b) Tenant shall pay when due all claims for labor and material furnished
to the Property.  Tenant shall give Landlord at least twenty (20) days' prior
written notice of the commencement of any work on the Property, regardless of
whether Landlord's consent to such work is required.  Landlord may elect to
record and post notices of non-responsibility on the Property.

     Section 6.06.  CONDITION UPON TERMINATION.  Upon the termination of the
Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Property to Landlord, broom clean and in
the same condition as received except for ordinary wear and tear which Tenant
was not otherwise obligated to remedy under any provision of this Lease.
However, Tenant shall not be  obligated to repair any damage which Landlord
is required to repair under Article Seven (Damage or Destruction).  In
addition, Landlord may require Tenant to remove any alterations, additions or
improvements (whether or not made with Landlord's consent) prior to the
expiration of the Lease and to restore the Property to its prior condition,
all at Tenant's expense.  All alterations, additions and improvements which
Landlord has not required Tenant to remove shall become Landlord's property
and shall be surrendered to Landlord upon the expiration or earlier
termination of the Lease, except that Tenant may remove any of Tenant's
machinery or equipment which can be removed without material damage to the
Property.  Tenant shall repair, at Tenant's expense, any damage to the
Property caused by the removal of any such machinery or equipment. In no
event, however, shall Tenant remove any of the following materials or
equipment (which shall be deemed Landlord's property) without Landlord's
prior written consent: any power wiring or power panels; lighting or lighting
fixtures; wall coverings; drapes, blinds or other window coverings; carpets
or other floor coverings; heaters, air conditioners or any other heating or
air conditioning equipment; fencing or security gates; or other similar
building operating equipment and decorations.  *See Section III of Addendum
to Lease for additional terms and conditions.

ARTICLE SEVEN: DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

     Section 7.01.  PARTIAL DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

     (a) Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing immediately upon the occurrence
of any damage to the Property.  If the Property is only partially damaged (i.e.,
less than fifty percent (50%) of the Property is untenantable as a result of
such damage or less than fifty percent (50%) of Tenant's

<PAGE>

                                                                             15

operations are materially impaired) and if the proceeds received by Landlord
from the insurance policies described in Paragraph 4.04(b) are sufficient to pay
for the necessary repairs, this Lease shall remain in effect and Landlord shall
repair the damage as soon as reasonably possible.  Landlord may elect (but is
not required) to repair any damage to Tenant's fixtures, equipment, or
improvements.

     (b) If the insurance proceeds received by Landlord re not sufficient to pay
the entire cost of repair, or if the cause of the damage is not covered by the
insurance policies which Landlord maintains under Paragraph 4.04(b), Landlord
may elect either to (i) repair the damage as soon as reasonably possible, in
which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, or 9ii) terminate
this Lease as of the date the damage occurred.  Landlord shall notify Tenant
within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of the occurrence of the damage
whether Landlord elects to repair the damage or terminate the Lease.  If
Landlord elects to repair the damage, Tenant shall pay Landlord the "deductive
amount" (if any) under Landlord's insurance policies and, if the damage was due
to an act or omission of Tenant, or Tenant's employees, agents, contractors or
invitees, the difference between the actual cost of repair and any insurance
proceeds received by Landlord.  If Landlord elects to terminate the Lease,
Tenant may elect to continue this Lease in full force and effect, in which case
Tenant shall repair any damage to the Property and any building in which the
Property is located.  Tenant shall pay the cost of such repairs, except that
upon satisfactory completion of such repairs, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant
any insurance proceeds received by Landlord for the damage repaired by Tenant.
Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such election within ten (10) days
after receiving Landlord's termination notice.

     (c) if the damage to the Property occurs during the last six (6) months of
the Lease Term and such damage will require more than thirty (30) days to
repair, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the
date the damage occurred, regardless of the sufficiency of any insurance
proceeds.  *See Section III of Addendum to Lease for additional terms and
conditions.  The party electing to terminate this Lease shall give written
notification to the other party of such election within thirty (30) days after
Tenant's notice to Landlord of the occurrence of the damage.

     Section 7.02.  SUBSTANTIAL OR TOTAL DESTRUCTION.  If the Property is
substantially or totally destroyed by any cause whatsoever (i.e., the damage to
the Property is greater than partial damage as described in Section 7.01), and
regardless of whether Landlord receives any insurance proceeds, this Lease shall
terminate as of the date the destruction occurred.  Notwithstanding the
preceding sentence, if the Property can be rebuilt within six (6) months after
the date of destruction, Landlord may elect to rebuild the Property at
Landlord's own expense, in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and
effect.  Landlord shall notify Tenant of such election within thirty (30) days
after Tenant's notice of the occurrence of total or substantial destruction.  If
Landlord so elects, Landlord shall rebuild the Property at Landlord's sole
expense, except that if the destruction was caused by an act or omission of
Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord the difference between the actual cost of
rebuilding and any insurance proceeds received by Landlord.

<PAGE>

                                                                             16

     Section 7.03.  TEMPORARY REDUCTION OF RENT.  If the Property is destroyed
or damaged and Landlord or Tenant repairs or restores the Property pursuant to
the provisions of this Article Seven, any rent payable during the period of such
damage, repair and/or restoration shall be reduced according to the degree, if
any, to which Tenant's use of the Property is impaired.  However, the reduction
shall not exceed the sum of one year's payment of Base Rent, insurance premiums
and real property taxes.  Except for such possible reduction in Base Rent,
insurance premiums and real property taxes, Tenant shall not be entitled to any
compensation, reduction, or reimbursement from Landlord as a result of any
damage, destruction, repair, or restoration of or to the Property.

     Section 7.04.  WAIVER.  Tenant waives the protection of any statute, code
or judicial decision which grants a tenant the right to terminate a lease in the
event of the substantial or total destruction of the leased property.  Tenant
agrees that the provisions of Section 7.02 above shall govern the rights and
obligations of Landlord and Tenant in the event of any substantial or total
destruction to the Property.

ARTICLE EIGHT:  CONDEMNATION

     If all or any portion of the Property is taken under the power of
eminent domain or sold under the threat of that power (all of which are
called "Condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as to the part taken or
sold on the date the condemning authority takes title or possession,
whichever occurs first. If more than twenty percent (20%) of the floor area
of the building in which the Property is located, or which is located on the
Property, is taken, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease as of
the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, by delivering
written notice to the other within ten (10) days after receipt of written
notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days
after the condemning authority takes title or possession).  If neither
Landlord nor Tenant terminates this Lease, this Lease shall remain in effect
as to the portion of the Property not taken, except that the Base Rent and
Additional Rent shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in the floor
area of the Property.  Any Condemnation award or payment shall be distributed
in the following order: (a) first, to any ground lessor, mortgagee or
beneficiary under a deed of trust encumbering the Property, the amount of its
interest in the Property; (b) second, to Tenant, only the amount of any award
specifically designated for loss of or damage to Tenant's trade fixtures or
removable personal property; and (c) third, to Landlord, the remainder of
such award, whether as compensation for reduction in the value of the
leasehold. the taking of the fee, or otherwise.  If this Lease is not
terminated, Landlord shall repair any damage to the Property caused by the
Condemnation, except that Landlord shall not be obligated to repair any
damage for which Tenant has been reimbursed by the condemning authority.  If
the severance damages received by Landlord are not sufficient to pay for such
repair, Landlord shall have the right to either terminate this Lease or make
such repair at Landlord's expense.

ARTICLE NINE:  ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

<PAGE>

                                                                             17

     Section 9.01.  LANDLORD'S CONSENT REQUIRED.  No portion of the Property or
of Tenant's interest in this Lease may be acquired by any other person or
entity, whether by sale, assignment, mortgage, sublease, transfer, operation of
law, or act of tenant, without Landlord's prior written consent, except as
provided in Section 9.02 below.  Landlord has the right to grant or withhold its
consent as provided in Section 9.05 below.  Any attempted transfer without
consent shall be void and shall constitute a non-curable breach of this Lease.
(deleted and initialed)

     Section 9.02.  TENANT AFFILIATE.  Tenant may assign this Lease or sublease
the Property, without Landlord's consent, to a corporation which controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, or to any corporation
resulting from the merger of or consolidation with Tenant ("Tenant's
Affiliate").  In such case, any Tenant's Affiliate shall assume in writing all
of Tenant's obligations under this Lease.

     Section 9.03.  NO RELEASE OF TENANT.  No transfer permitted by this Article
Nine, whether with or without Landlord's consent, shall release Tenant or change
Tenant's primary liability to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations
of Tenant under this Lease.  Landlord's acceptance of rent from any other person
is not a waiver of any provision of this Article Nine.  Consent to one transfer
is not a consent to any subsequent transfer.  If Tenant's transferee defaults
under this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without pursuing
remedies against the transferee.  Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments
or modifications of this Lease by Tenant's transferee, without notifying Tenant
or obtaining its consent.  Such action shall not relieve Tenant's liability
under this Lease.

     Section 9.04.  OFFER TO TERMINATE.  If Tenant desires to assign the Lease
or sublease the Property, Tenant shall have the right to offer, in writing, to
terminate the Lease as of a date specified in the offer.  If Landlord elects in
writing to accept the offer to terminate within twenty (20) days after notice of
the offer, the Lease shall terminate as of the date specified and all the terms
and provisions of the Lease governing termination shall apply.  If Landlord does
not so elect, the Lease shall continue in effect until otherwise terminated and
the provisions of Section 9.05 with respect to any proposed transfer shall
continue to apply.

     Section 9.05.  LANDLORD'S CONSENT.

     (a)  Tenant's request for consent to any transfer described in Section 9.01
shall set forth in writing the details of the proposed transfer, including the
name, business and financial condition of the prospective transferee, financial
details of the proposed transfer (e.g., the term of and the rent and security
deposit payable under any proposed assignment or sublease), and any other
information Landlord deems relevant.  Landlord shall have the right to withhold
consent, if reasonable, or to grant consent, based on the following factors: (i)
the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant and the proposed use of the
Property; (ii) the net worth and financial reputation of the proposed assignee
or subtenant; (iii) Tenant's compliance with all of its obligations under the
Lease; and (iv) such other factors as Landlord may reasonably deem relevant.  If
Landlord objects to a proposed

<PAGE>

                                                                              18

assignment solely because of the net worth and/or financial reputation of the
proposed assignee, Tenant may nonetheless sublease (but not assign), all or a
portion of the Property to the proposed transferee, but only on the other terms
of the proposed transfer.

     (b)  If Tenant assigns or subleases, the following shall apply:

          (i)  Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent under the Lease
     the Landlord's Share (stated in Section 1.14) of the Profit (defined below)
     on such transaction as and when received by Tenant, unless Landlord gives
     written notice to Tenant and the assignee or subtenant that Landlord's
     Share shall be paid by the assignee or subtenant to Landlord directly.

     The "Profit" means (A) all amounts paid to Tenant for such assignment or
     sublease, including "key" money, monthly rent in excess of the monthly rent
     payable under the Lease, and all fees and other consideration paid for the
     assignment or sublease, including fees under any collateral agreements,
     less (B) costs and expenses directly incurred by Tenant in connection with
     the execution and performance of such assignment or sublease for real
     estate broker's commissions and costs of renovation or construction of
     tenant improvements required under such assignment or sublease.  Tenant is
     entitled to recover such costs and expenses before Tenant is obligated to
     pay the Landlord's Share to Landlord.  The Profit in the case of a sublease
     of less than all the Property is the rent allocable to the subleased space
     as a percentage on a square footage basis.

          (ii) Tenant shall provide Landlord a written statement certifying all
     amounts to be paid from any assignment or sublease of the Property within
     thirty (30) days after the transaction documentation is signed, and
     Landlord may inspect Tenant's books and records to verify the accuracy of
     such statement.  On written request, Tenant shall promptly furnish to
     Landlord copies of all the transaction documentation, all of which shall be
     certified by Tenant to be complete, true and correct.  Landlord's receipt
     of Landlord's Share shall not be a consent to any further assignment or
     subletting.  The breach of Tenant's obligation under this Paragraph 9.05(b)
     shall be a material default of the Lease.

     Section 9.06  NO MERGER.  No merger shall result from Tenant's sublease of
the Property under this Article Nine, Tenant's surrender of this Lease or the
termination of this Lease in any other manner.  In any such event, Landlord may
terminate any or all subtenancies or succeed to the interest of Tenant as
sublandlord under any or all subtenancies.

ARTICLE TEN: DEFAULTS; REMEDIES

     Section 10.01.  COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS.  Tenant's performance of each of
Tenant's obligations under this Lease is a condition as well as a covenant.
Tenant's right to continue in

<PAGE>

                                                                             19


possession of the Property is conditioned upon such performance.  Time is of the
essence in the performance of all covenants and conditions.

     Section 10.02.  DEFAULTS.  Tenant shall be in material default under this
Lease:

     (a)  If Tenant abandons the Property or if Tenant's vacation of  the
Property results in the  cancellation of any Insurance described in Section
4.04;

      (b) If Tenant fails to pay rent or any other charge (deleted per initials)
[after 10 days written notice that the same is past] (handwritten comments);

     (c)  If Tenant fails to perform any of Tenant's non-monetary obligations
under this Lease for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice from
Landlord; provided that if more than thirty (30) days are required to complete
such performance, Tenant shall not be in default if Tenant commences such
performance within the thirty (30)-day period and thereafter diligently pursues
its completion.  However, Landlord shall not be required to give such notice if
Tenant's failure to perform constitutes a non-curable breach of this Lease.  The
notice required by this Paragraph is intended to satisfy any and all notice
requirements imposed by law on Landlord and is not in addition to any such
requirement.

     (d) (i) If Tenant makes a general assignment or general arrangement for the
benefit of creditors; (ii) if a petition for adjudication of bankruptcy or for
reorganization or rearrangement is filed by or against Tenant and is not
dismissed within thirty (30) days; (iii) if a trustee or receiver is appointed
to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the
Property or of Tenant's interest in this Lease and possession is not restored to
Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (iv) if substantially all of Tenant's assets
located at the Property or of Tenant's interest in this Lease is subjected to
attachment, execution or other judicial seizure which is not discharged within
thirty (30) days.  If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of
the acts described in this subparagraph (d) is not a default under this Lease,
and a trustee is appointed to take possession (or if Tenant remains a debtor in
possession) and such trustee or Tenant transfers Tenant's interest hereunder,
then Landlord shall receive, as Additional Rent, the excess, if any, of the rent
(or any other consideration) paid in connection with such assignment or sublease
over the rent payable by Tenant under this Lease.

     (e) If any guarantor of the  Lease revokes or otherwise terminates, or

and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any right or remedy which
Landlord may have:

                                                                             20

     (a)  Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Property by any lawful
means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately
surrender possession of the Property to Landlord.  In such event, Landlord shall
be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of
Tenant's default, including (i) the worth at the time of the award of the unpaid
Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which Landlord had earned at the
time of the termination; (ii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount
by which the unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which Landlord
would have earned after termination until the time of the award exceeds the
amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves Landlord could have reasonably
avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the
unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which Tenant would have paid
for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of
such rental loss that Tenant proves Landlord could have reasonably avoided; and
(iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment
proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under the
Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result
therefrom, including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses Landlord incurs
in maintaining or preserving the Property after such default, the cost of
recovering possession of the Property, expenses of reletting, including
necessary renovation or alteration of the Property, Landlord's reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred in connection therewith, and any real estate commission
paid or payable.  As used in subparts (i) and (ii) above, the "worth at the time
of the award" is computed by allowing interest on unpaid amounts at the rate of
fifteen percent (15%) per annum, or such lesser amount as may then be the
maximum lawful rate.  As used in subpart (iii) above, the "worth at the time of
the award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the
Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award, plus one percent
(1%).  If Tenant has abandoned the Property, Landlord shall have the option of
(i) retaking possession of the Property and recovering from Tenant the amount
specified in this Paragraph 10.03(a), or (ii) proceeding under Paragraph
10.03(b);

     (b)  Maintain Tenant's right to possession, in which case this Lease shall
continue in effect whether or not Tenant has abandoned the Property.  In such
event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord's rights and
remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes
due;

     (c)  Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under
the laws or judicial decisions of the state in which the Property is located.

               THIRD ADDENDUM TO INDUSTRIAL REAL ESTATE LEASE

This Third Addendum to industrial Real Estate Lease is made this 17th day of
December 1997, by and between Informix Software, Inc.("Lessee") and 3905
Bohannon Partners ("Lessor").

                                      RECITALS

Lessee currently leases from Lessor approximately 10,327 square feet of building
consisting of Suites C, D, E, and G, and 5,500 square feet of Parking Lot
Storage located at 3905 Bohannon Drive, Menlo Park, California ("Property")
under that Lease dated April 10, 1995, and amended by an Addendum to Industrial
Lease executed by Lessor on May 30, 1995, and amended by Second Addendum to
Lease executed by Lessee on January 27, 1997 ("Lease").

NOW THEREFORE, in the consideration of the above recital and the mutual
covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereby amend the Lease as
follows:

     1.   Property: Effective January 1, 1998, the Property is amended to
          include Suite F of approximately 4,183 square feet and Suite A of
          approximately 1,359 square feet.

     2.   Base Rent: Effective January 1, 1998, in addition to the Base Rent
          under the Lease, Lessee shall pay additional Base Rent of $9,144.30
          per month. This additional Base Rent payment shall increase to
          $9,421.40 per month on November 1, 1998 and to $9,698.50 per month on
          November 1, 1999. This additional Base Rent shall not be subject to
          the Cost of Living Increases under Section 3.02 of t he Lease.

     3.   Lessee leases Suites F and A on an "AS IS" basis and will be solely
          responsible for tenant improvement costs.

     4.   The provisions of Section 6.06 of the Lease shall apply to Suites F
          and A.

     5.   Lessee shall not make any alterations to Suite F or A without the
          prior written consent of Lessor which consent shall not be
          unreasonably withheld or delayed.

     6.   Option to Extend. The option to extend is amended as follows:

                    Lessee shall have one option to extend the Lease for a
               period of three years by giving written notice to Lessor of
               not less than 120 days prior to the end of the lease term
               which termination date is October 30, 2000.  The rental rate
               for the extended term shall be at fair market value.  The fair
               market value for the Property shall be determined without
               regard to any improvements which have been made to the,
               Property at Lessee's cost and expense.  If the parties do not
               mutually agree on the fair market value within 30 days prior
               to the beginning of the extended term, each party shall select
               a real estate broker with at least five years experience
               leasing industrial buildings in Santa Clara or San Mateo
               County, who shall not have worked for either party for the
               past ten years.  The two real estate brokers will within 30
               days attempt to agree on the fair market value of the
               Property.  Should the two real estate brokers be unable to
               agree on a fair market value, the two real estate brokers
               shall select a third real estate broker with similar
               qualifications who shall estimate the fair market rental value
               of the Property.  This determination shall be averaged with
               the closest determination of

<PAGE>

               the other two brokers to determine the fair market value for
               the extended term.  Each party shall bear the cost of their
               broker and one half of the cost of any third broker.

     7.   Except as specifically modified herein, all terms, covenants and
          conditions of the Lease shall remain in full force. In the event of
          any conflict between this Third Addendum and the Lease, the terms of
          this Addendum shall prevail.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment on the day and
year first above written.
