4.   CONDITIONS

The present Lease is made subject to the following conditions, to the
fulfillment whereof the parties hereto respectively oblige themselves, namely:

4.1  That the Lessee shall pay the rent at the time and in the manner aforesaid,
such rent to be made payable to the Lessor, without the necessity of and demand
therefor at 2350 rue de la Province, Longueuil, Quebec, Canada, or at such other
place as the Lessor may from time to time designate in writing to the Lessee.

4.2  The Lessee shall assume and be responsible for all repairs and maintenance
to the Building and the Parking Lot, of whatever nature, other than the repairs
and the work described in Section 7 hereof which shall be the responsibility of
the Lessor. At the expiration of the Term, the Lessee shall remove its goods and
effects and shall peaceably yield up to the Lessor the Premises in as good order
and condition as when delivered to it at the beginning of the Term, excepting
ordinary wear and tear and damages by fire. In the event the Lessee fails to
commence any repairs which it is required to make within thirty (30) days of
written notification of such necessary repairs by the Lessor, and fails to
complete them within a reasonable time, then the Lessor may make such repairs,
and the cost thereof shall be repaid forthwith to the Lessor by the Lessee, and
Lessee shall pay interest, if any, on Lessor's reasonable borrowing costs on all
sums so advanced by Lessor.

4.3  That the Lessee shall, at its own expense, heat the Premises to a

and valves, water closets, sinks and accessories thereof in and about the
Premises, and keep the same free from all uncleanliness or obstruction that

                                      - 3 -

4.4  The Lessee may not assign this Lease or sub-lease the whole or any part of
the Premises or the Parking Lot without the prior written approval of the
Lessor, which approval shall not be withheld without a serious reason, and which
must be communicated to the Lessee within fifteen (15) days of the Lessee's
request (the "REQUEST").

This Section 4.4 shall not apply to either (a) transactions with an entity into
or with which Lessee is merged, amalgamated or consolidated, or to which all or
substantially all of Lessee's assets are transferred, (b) transactions with any
entity which controls or is controlled by Lessee or is under common control with
Lessee or (c) transactions with any entity which acquires a controlling equity
interest in Lessee. Each of the said transactions shall not constitute a
sub-lease or assignment for purposes of this Lease.

In the event of assignment or a sub-lease under this Condition, the assignee or
sub-lessee must use the assigned or sub-leased premises only for purposes
similar to those hereunder mentioned, and the Lessee shall remain solidarily
responsible with such assignee or sub-lessee for the payment of all rental and
the compliance with all of the conditions hereunder. Lessor shall have the
option in the event that it does not consent to a sub-lease and/or an assignment
to release Lessee from this Lease, and must inform the Lessee of its decision by
sending to the Lessee a written notice (the "RELEASE NOTICE") within fifteen
(15) days of the Lessee's Request.

In the event the Lessor elects to release the Lessee, the Lessee shall have the
option to withdraw its Request and shall notify the Lessor of its decision to
withdraw its request within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Release Notice.

If the Lessee assigns this Lease or sublets the Premises or any portion thereof,
the Lessee can retain one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of the
compensation received by the Lessee as a result of such assignment or
subletting.

4.5  The present Lease shall not be interrupted or terminated by any loss or
destruction by fire or otherwise, even total destruction of the Building hereby
leased, and the Lessor obliges itself in the event of any such damage or
destruction to repair or replace the Building as the case may be, the whole at
its own expense and provided always that the whole of the proceeds of any
insurance are made available by mortgage, if any, and the Lessee for such
purpose. In the event of such loss or destruction the Lessee shall pay rent only
in proportion to the usable space, and the Lessor binds and obliges itself to
make repairs and/or replacements with all due diligence. Notwithstanding the
aforementioned, Lessor shall have the option not to rebuild in the event of the
destruction of the Premises by fire or otherwise, in the event that the payment
to the Lessor of the whole of the proceeds of the insurance coverage
contemplated by this Lease, in the Lessor's judgment such proceeds are not
adequate to effect rebuilding without additional outlay from Lessor. If this
event shall take place, then Lessee shall have the right to collect the proceeds
and rebuild, subject to mortgagee approval, if applicable. Notwithstanding any
rebuilding by Lessee hereunder, the building so erected shall be and remain the
property of Lessor from the date such rebuilding is commenced and no emphyteutic
lease is hereby created.

4.6  That the Lessee shall have the right to make alterations and/or additions
but not including, without the written consent and approval of the Lessor,
structural alterations and/or additions to the Premises or the Parking Lot,
provided such alterations and/or additions in no way lessen the strength of the
structure, in no way depreciate the value of the realty, and are performed in
accordance with good construction practice and under the supervision of a
competent architect. In the event alterations and/or additions not of permanent
character and not incorporated in the Premises shall have been made by the
Lessee under this provision, the Lessee shall, at the termination of this Lease,
if so requested by the Lessor, remove the same at its cost and restore the
Premises or the Parking Lot, as the case may be, to the same state and condition
as they were in at the time of the commencement of this Lease, reasonable wear
and tear excepted. Should any alterations and/or additions remain even with the
consent of the Lessor, the Lessor shall not be required to pay any compensation
or indemnity therefor. If, as a result of any work done by the Lessee the
Property becomes affected by any legal hypothec, the Lessee agrees to discharge
the same within thirty (30) days of being called upon to do so by the Lessor in
writing, or it may within the same delay if it wishes, in good faith contest
such legal hypothec, deposit with the Lessor a sum sufficient to cover any such
legal hypothec in principal, interest and costs.

4.7  That at the termination of this Lease, all machinery, movable partitions
and equipment installed in the Premises or on the Parking Lot at the Lessee's
expense shall remain the property

<Page>

                                      - 4 -

of the Lessee and may be removed by the Lessee. The Lessee shall, however,
repair any damage caused directly by said installation or removal.

4.8 That all signs installed or erected by the Lessee or any sub-lessee or
assignee on or about the exterior of the Building shall be the responsibility of
the Lessee and shall be in keeping with the general character of the Building
and subject to the approval of the Lessor, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, and to the approval of the City of Longueuil. Upon
removal of said signs at the termination of this Lease or any renewal thereof,
the Lessee agrees to repair any damage caused by such installation and removal.

4.9 That the Lessee use the Premises only for the purposes of manufacturing,
assembling, warehousing and offices, and will not use or consent to any use of
the Premises which is or shall be contrary to any valid by-law, rules and
regulations of every municipal or other authority which in any manner relate to
or affect the operation of its business and to indemnify and save harmless the
Lessor from any cost, charge or damage to which the Lessor may be put or suffer
by reason of a breach of any such by-law, rule or regulation.

4.10 That the Lessor may during the Term and during Lessee's normal business
hours enter to view the Premises or to make such repairs as the Lessor may deem
advisable (even though the same may not be required by this Lease) or for the
purpose of exhibiting the Premises to persons who may wish to purchase the same.
The Lessor may also at any time during the six (6) months before the expiration
of the Term show the Premises to others, and affix to any suitable part of the
Premises a notice for letting or selling and keep the same affixed without
hindrance or molestation.

4.11 That if the Lessee shall neglect or fail to perform or observe any of the
covenants contained herein on its part to be observed and performed for thirty
(30) days after written notice by the Lessor, or if the Lessee shall be
adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent according to law, or shall make an assignment
for the benefit of creditors, then, in any of said cases, the Lessor may
lawfully enter into and upon the Premises and the Parking Lot and repossess the
same for its benefit and expel the Lessee and those claiming under and through
it and remove its effects (forcibly if necessary) without being deemed guilty of
any manner of trespass and without prejudice to its rights and recourses against
the Lessee or its representatives for the rent then due and damages, and, upon
entering as aforesaid, this Lease shall terminate and the Lessee covenants that
in case of such termination it will indemnify the Lessor against all loss of
rent which the Lessor may incur by reason of such termination during the
remainder of this Lease.

4.12 That the Lessor shall not be liable for any injury to or loss suffered by
Lessee, its employees, servants, agents, sub-lessees, or other persons in or
about the Premises or the Parking Lot from whatsoever cause the same may arise,
other than defects in construction not attributable to any fault or neglect on
the part of the Lessee or those for whom it is in law responsible, and the
Lessee releases the Lessor from all liability for any such injury, loss,
destruction or damage, except as due to or occasioned by the act or neglect of
the Lessor.

4.13 The Lessor hereby waives the benefit of the presumption created by Article
1862 of the Civil Code of Quebec.

4.14 That the failure of Lessor or Lessee to enforce any covenant or conditions
of this Lease shall not be deemed to void or affect the right of the injured
party to enforce the same covenant or condition on the occasion of a subsequent
default or breach. Neither the payment of rent by the Lessee nor the receipt by
the Lessor of rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant hereof on the
part of the Lessee or Lessor shall be deemed a waiver of such breach. No waiver
by the Lessor or Lessee of any provisions hereof shall be deemed to have been
made unless so expressed in writing.

4.15 That all notices to be given hereunder by either party shall be in writing,
either by personal delivery or to be sent by registered mail addressed to the
party intended to be notified.

The Lessee elects domicile at the place of the Premises which shall be the
address for services of all notices in connection with legal proceedings taken
hereunder, and all notices to the Lessee shall be to this address. In addition,
a copy of all notices sent to the Lessee shall be sent to Hasbro Inc. at 1027
Newport Avenue, Pawtucket, Rhode Island, 02862, to the attention of the General
Counsel.

The Lessor elects domicile at 2350, rue de la Province, Longueuil, Quebec,
Canada, which shall be the address for services of all notices in connection

5.   OPTION TO RENEW

5.1  Lessee, faithfully performing its obligations and undertakings hereunder
and not being in default, shall have the option to renew this Lease for one (1)
period of three (3) years commencing at the expiration of the Term, on the same
terms and conditions as those provided in this Lease, except rental which shall
be the then fair market rental rate for similar buildings in the area.

5.2  In order to exercise the said option to renew, the Lessee shall give
written notice to the Lessor at least six (6) months prior to the expiry of the
Term, of its intention to renew this Lease for a further period of three (3)
years. The date of the giving of such notice shall be hereinafter referred to as
the "EXERCISE DATE".

5.3  Following the Exercise Date, Lessor and Lessee shall in good faith attempt
to agree on the fair market rental. If Lessee and Lessor are unable to agree
upon such fair market rental, then within fifteen (15) days of the Exercise
Date, Lessee and Lessor shall jointly appoint a real estate appraisal firm based
in Montreal with at lease five (5) years experience in appraising commercial
real estate (the "APPRAISER") to determine such fair market rental. Lessee and
Lessor agree that the Appraiser in making its appraisal of the fair market
rental shall take into account the terms of the Lease, including the triple net
nature thereof, the condition of the Premises, the rent payable for premises
similar to the Premises having regard to the nature, location and usage of the
Premises and all other appropriate factors such as tenant improvements,
brokerage fees and other inducements offered for comparable buildings. The fair
market rental shall be determined by such Appraiser within ninety (90) days of
the Exercise Date.

5.4  If Lessor and Lessee cannot jointly agree on an Appraiser, then within
twenty (20) days of the Exercise Date, each shall appoint an Appraiser. Both
appraisals shall be completed and delivered simultaneously to Lessor and Lessee
on the fiftieth (50th) day following the Exercise Date. If the higher appraisal
is less than 5% greater than the lower appraisal, then the fair market rental
shall be the average of both appraisals. If the higher appraisal is more than 5%
greater than the lower appraisal, then within sixty-five (65) days following the
Exercise Date, the Appraisers shall jointly select another Appraiser to make an
additional appraisal of the fair market rental, which shall be completed and
delivered to Lessor and Lessee within ninety (90) days following the Exercise
Date. In this last case, fair market rental shall be the average of the two
closest appraisals.

5.5  Each party shall bear the cost of the Appraiser selected solely by such
party. All costs of any Appraisers jointly selected by Lessor and Lessee shall
be borne equally by Lessor and Lessee. The fair market rental determined by (i)
the sole jointly elected Appraiser in accordance with Section 5.3 or (ii) by
averaging certain appraisals pursuant to Section 5.4 shall be final and binding
on Lessor and Lessee with respect to the three year renewal term in question.

6.   SALE OF THE PROPERTY

6.1  For the duration of the Term or any renewal thereof, the Lessor shall be
entitled to sell the Building and the Parking Lot only as a whole and not
separately, subject to the following:

     a)   RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. If Lessor receives a genuine bona fide written
          offer (the "THIRD PARTY OFFER") from an unrelated bona fide third
          party (the "THIRD PARTY") for the whole of the Premises and Parking
          Lot, and the Third Party Offer is acceptable to the Lessor, then the
          Lessor shall first offer to sell (the "OFFER") the Premises and
          Parking Lot to the Lessee on the same terms and conditions as those
          contained in the Third Party Offer. The Offer shall be sent to the
          Lessee and shall be open for acceptance for ten (10) business days
          (the "OFFER PERIOD") from the date of receipt of the Offer by the
          Lessee. If the Lessee fails to accept the Offer within the Offer
          Period, then the Lessor shall be free for a period of sixty (60) days
          from the end of the Offer Period to sell all (but no less than all) of
          the Premises and the Parking Lot to the Third Party on the same terms
          and conditions provided in the Third Party Offer, it being understood,
          however, that,

<Page>

                                      - 6 -

          should the ultimately negotiated sale price be lower than the one
          submitted in the Offer by an amount which is greater than 5% of the
          sale price submitted in the Offer (other than as a result of normal
          closing adjustments), the Lessee shall be notified of such occurrence
          by the Lessor at least five (5) business days before entering in the
          deed of sale, and should the Lessee so notify the Lessor within such
          period, the Lessor shall not sell the Premises and the Parking Lot
          without again following and being subject to the provisions of this
          Section 6.1 a) by presenting a new Offer, taking into account the said
          ultimately negotiated price. If no sale to the Third Party takes place
          within the applicable sixty (60) day period, then the Lessor shall not
          sell the Premises and the Parking Lot without again following and
          being subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 a).

     b)   LAPSE OF FIRST REFUSAL RIGHT. Should the Lessee fail to give written
          notice to the Lessor of its intention to renew the Lease for a further
          three (3) years in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 hereof,
          the above-mentioned right of first refusal shall lapse concurrently
          with the said option to renew. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should
          the procedure under the first refusal right hereunder have been
          initiated prior to any such right lapsing or prior to the termination
          of this Lease, the terms of Section 6.1 a) shall remain in full force
          and effect until said procedure has been completed.

     c)   BREACH OF FIRST REFUSAL RIGHT BY LESSEE. If the Lessee accepts the
          Offer during the Offer Period, but does not complete the purchase
          transaction within sixty (60) days from the date when all of the
          conditions (other than conditions totally within the control of
          Lessee) to the Third Party Offer are satisfied as a result of a breach
          of Lessee's obligations under the Third Party Offer as accepted by
          Lessee, the Lessor shall be entitled to seek specific performance of
          the Lessee's obligations under the Offer as accepted by Lessee and the
          Lessee shall be liable to the Lessor for all losses, damages, and
          expenses (including broker and legal fees) suffered or incurred by the
          Lessor as a result of the Lessee's breach.
