                  REAL ESTATE PURCHASE AND LEASEBACK AGREEMENT

     This Real Estate Purchase and Leaseback Agreement ("AGREEMENT") is made by
and between ECKERD CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("SELLER") and INLAND
REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS, INC., an Illinois corporation, or its designee or
nominee ("PURCHASER"). In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.   THE PROPERTY.

     1.1    Seller agrees to sell and Purchaser agrees to purchase, upon and
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, certain
improved land located at the northwest corner of Highway 158 and Eighth Street,
and situated in the City of Kill Devil Hills, County of Dare, State of North
Carolina, as legally described on the attached EXHIBIT "A" ("PROPERTY").
Contemporaneously with the purchase and sale of the Property as contemplated in
this Agreement, Purchaser shall lease the Property to Seller pursuant to a Lease
Agreement ("LEASE") in substantially the same form as that attached as EXHIBIT
"B."

2.   PURCHASE PRICE.

     2.1    The purchase price for the Property is Three Million Six Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($3,650,000.00) as adjusted pursuant to this Agreement
("PURCHASE PRICE"). The Purchase Price shall be paid in federal funds by
Purchaser to the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent for the benefit of Seller at Closing
by wire transfer. The Purchase Price shall be increased to include the closing
costs paid by Seller pursuant to Section 10.1 of this Agreement.

     2.2    The annual Rent under the Lease has been calculated by multiplying
the Purchase Price for the Property by a rate of 8.30% with a fifty-cent ($0.50)
per square foot increase for each successive option period.

3.   EARNEST MONEY.

     3.1    Within ten (10) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement,
Purchaser shall deposit the sum of Twenty Five Thousand and NO/100 Dollars
($25,000.00) as earnest money ("EARNEST MONEY") with LandAmerica National
Commercial Services, 10 LaSalle Street, Suite 2500, Chicago, Illinois 60603,
Attention Thomas M. Gray, VP National Accounts ("TITLE INSURER/ESCROW AGENT"),
which sum shall be held for the benefit of Seller by Title Insurer/Escrow Agent
in escrow, subject to disbursement in accordance with the terms and provisions
of this Agreement. Provided that Purchaser furnishes Title Insurer/Escrow Agent
with a form W-9 containing Purchaser's Social Security Number or U.S. Taxpayer
Identification Number as the case may be, and any necessary escrow documents,
the Earnest Money shall be held by Title Insurer/Escrow Agent in an
interest-bearing money market savings account, and

                                        1
<Page>

interest earned on the Earnest Money shall be reported under Purchaser's Social
Security Number or U.S. Taxpayer Identification Number, as the case may be.

     3.2    Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, at Closing, the
Earnest Money and interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be returned to
Purchaser upon the Purchaser's delivery of the Purchase Price, plus or minus
prorations, to the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent by certified or cashier's check or
by wire transfer. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the Earnest Money, and any accrued interest on it, shall be refunded to
Purchaser in the event Purchaser terminates this Agreement as provided in this
Agreement.

4.   TITLE AND SURVEY MATTERS.

     4.1    As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver
to Purchaser a standard owner's policy of title insurance issued by the Title
Insurer/Escrow Agent ("TITLE POLICY"). The Title Policy shall insure marketable
title to the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price, free and clear of all
liens, encumbrances and exceptions whatsoever, save and except only for those
easements, restrictions and other matters of record affecting title to the
Property which are Permitted Exceptions (as hereinafter defined).

     4.2    Purchaser shall have until the end of the Due Diligence Period (as
hereinafter defined) in which to review the title commitment and as-built survey
to be delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 5.1, and to obtain any
modifications, endorsements or other revisions to either the title commitment or
the survey required by Purchaser, at Purchaser's cost. If Purchaser is unable to
obtain any modification, endorsement or other revision to the title commitment
or survey required by Purchaser, or if any items remain on the title commitment
or survey which are not acceptable to Purchaser ("UNPERMITTED EXCEPTIONS"), then
on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall so notify
Seller (an "OBJECTION NOTICE"). Seller has a period of ten (10) days after the
date of the Objection Notice in which Seller, using good faith efforts, shall
attempt to remove such Unpermitted Matters or remedy same in a manner
satisfactory to Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion, or have the Title
Insurer/Escrow Agent commit to insure against loss or damage that may be
occasioned by such exceptions (in endorsements satisfactory to Purchaser). If
Seller does not cure any Unpermitted Exceptions to Purchaser's satisfaction
within such period, then Purchaser may either (a) terminate this Agreement by
giving written notice to Seller of such termination not later than five (5) days
following the end of the ten (10) day cure period, in which event the Earnest
Money, and all interest earned thereon, shall be returned to Purchaser and
neither party shall have any further obligations or liabilities hereunder or (b)
accept such Unpermitted Exceptions. Any item not specified in the Objection
Notice or subsequently accepted by Purchaser shall be a "PERMITTED EXCEPTION".
Seller shall be obligated to remove prior to Closing all mortgages and other
liens or encumbrances of a definite or ascertainable monetary amount, and if
Seller fails to do so, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement. At the
Closing, and as a further condition of Purchaser's performance of its
obligations hereunder, Seller shall cause the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent to
deliver to Purchaser the Title Policy or a marked-up and signed commitment to
deliver same.

5.   DUE DILIGENCE INFORMATION.

     5.1    Within ten (10) days of the Effective Date, or as soon as possible

such ten (10) day period), Seller shall provide Purchaser with the following
information: (a) the Lease, in substantially the same form as that attached as

6.   DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD.

     6.1    Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days from the Effective Date (the
"DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD") to review the Due Diligence Information and to conduct
all tests, inspections, feasibility and other studies and all other
investigations concerning the Property that Purchaser requires (including,
without limitation, environmental tests and assessments, inspection of the
physical condition of the Property, appraisals, surveys, and investigation of
zoning and other legal requirements) to determine whether the Property is
satisfactory to Purchaser, and to notify Seller in writing of any specific
objections to it. In the event Purchaser decides not to purchase the Property
based upon Purchaser's review of the Due Diligence Information or other
investigations, Purchaser shall so notify Seller in writing within the Due
Diligence Period. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be considered terminated,
null and void, and neither party shall have any further obligation one to the
other, and the Earnest Money, and any interest earned thereon, shall be returned
to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further obligations or liabilities
hereunder. If Purchaser does not so notify Seller within the Due Diligence
Period, the parties will proceed to Closing in the manner described in this
Agreement.

     6.2    Purchaser's obligation to acquire the Property and consummate the
other transactions contemplated hereunder shall be conditioned on satisfaction
of the following requirements (the "CONSTRUCTION CONDITIONS").

            (a)     Seller having obtained and delivered to Purchaser a final,
unconditional certificate of occupancy from the City of Kill Devil Hills, North
Carolina, and any other applicable governmental authority with respect to all of
the Property;

            (b)     Seller having obtained and delivered to Purchaser a

premises as described in the Lease, opened for business to the public, and,
concurrent with the Closing, commenced full payment of rents and other charges
pursuant to the Lease.

            or relocations necessitated by public authority or other
            circumstances beyond Landlord's control.

5.   EXCLUSIVE

     5.1.   Landlord agrees that it will not directly or indirectly lease, rent,

            (direct or indirect) located within one thousand (1,000) feet of any
            exterior boundary of the Leased Premises, to be used as a drug store
            or a business which sells or dispenses prescription drugs or for any
            collateral use (such as, E.G., parking, drainage, or service
            drives), in support of a drug store or a business which sells or
            dispenses prescription drugs without the written permission of
            Tenant. If the mortgagee of the Leased Premises becomes the
            landlord, the provisions of this Section shall not apply so long as

            the Leased Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease.
            Tenant acknowledges that the exercise of any repair or maintenance
            function by a grantee of a utility easement encumbering the Leased
            Premises will not constitute a breach of Landlord's warranty as set
            forth in this Lease.

     6.3.   Landlord warrants and represents to Tenant that no brokerage
            commissions have been charged to, or paid by, Tenant in relation to
            this Lease to brokers in which Landlord has an ownership interest or
            who are subsidiaries or affiliates of Landlord.

7.   LEASE SUBORDINATION AND NOTICES TO MORTGAGEES

     7.1.   Tenant agrees to subordinate this Lease to the lien of any first
            mortgage or blanket mortgage placed on the Leased Premises, provided
            only that so long as this Lease is in full force and effect and
            Tenant is not in default of this Lease, (a) Tenant's tenancy will
            not be disturbed, nor will this Lease be affected by any default
            under such mortgage; (b) the rights of Tenant under this Lease shall
            expressly survive and shall not be cut off; and (c) this Lease
            shall, in all respects, continue in full force and effect.

     7.2.   If Landlord is in full compliance with the provisions of this Lease,
            Tenant will, upon demand and without cost to Tenant, execute and
            deliver to Landlord Tenant's standard Subordination, Non-Disturbance
            and Attornment Agreement ("SNDA") necessary to effectuate such
            subordination and non-disturbance. A copy of the SNDA is attached as
            EXHIBIT "C."

     7.3.   Upon Landlord's written request, any notices required or permitted
            to be given to Landlord under this Lease shall also be given to any
            mortgagee whose name and address has been provided by Landlord to
            Tenant in writing. Such mortgagee shall have the right, but not the
            obligation, to cure any default by Landlord within the same time
            period as may be granted Landlord under any provision in this Lease.

            Leased Premises and adjacent public streets and highways. Tenant

            cost and expense.

9.   SIGNS AND ANTENNAE

     9.1.   Landlord agrees that Tenant shall have the right at its own cost and
            expense to erect, maintain and replace signs on the Leased Premises
            advertising its business and the services it provides. Any signs
            erected by Tenant shall conform to the requirements of local
            ordinances and shall be signs generally used by Tenant to advertise

            hereinafter defined), Tenant may install satellite
            receiving/transmitting equipment or antennae on the roof of the

            roof or otherwise adversely affect the integrity of the roof
            structure. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless
            from and against any and all claims and demands arising from the
            installation, removal or repair of such equipment, unless such
            claims or demands are due to the negligence of Landlord, its agents,
            employees or contractors.

            reconstruction by Tenant of any of the Leased Premises,
            (collectively, the "LEGAL REQUIREMENTS") or alterations made by the
            Tenant, and Tenant will pay all costs and expenses incidental to

            to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, transferability or
            use of the Leased Premises under any Environmental Law or any
            regulation adopted in accordance with any Environmental Law.

     11.5.  Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord,

            to Landlord, upon request, that Tenant is in compliance with the
            environmental restrictions contained in this Section of the Lease.
            Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter into
            the Leased Premises and perform any obligation of Tenant under this
            Lease of which Tenant is in default, including without limitation,
            any remediation necessary due to the environmental impact of
            Tenant's operations on the Leased Premises, without waiving or
            reducing Tenant's liability for Tenant's default of this Section of
            this Lease.

     11.7.  All of the terms and provisions of this Section of this Lease shall

            limitation, maintaining in good operating condition (including
            making all necessary repairs and replacements, foreseen or
            unforeseen, to accomplish the same) all of the Leased Premises,
            including bug not limited to the interior, exterior, roof and
            structural members of the building on the Leased Premises, footings,

            equipment and systems (including replacement of the compressor and
            other major components), sprinkler systems (including any testing of
            the same) and any water, plumbing, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, gas,

            Premises, and making all repairs required due to fire, casualty, or

            good order and repair.

     12.3.  Subject to Tenant's reasonable security requirements, Landlord may

            charges and/or taxes for any easement or agreement maintained for
            the benefit of any of the Leased Premises, all general and special
            assessments, levies, and all other public charges and/or taxes
            whether of a like or different nature, even if unforeseen or
            extraordinary, imposed upon or assessed, prior to or during the Term
            as a result of or arising in respect of the Leased Premises ,
            including any "rent tax" imposed directly upon the Rent

                                        6
<Page>

            (collectively, "TAXES") which are received by Landlord with respect
            to the Leased Premises. Alternatively, Landlord has the right to
            have the bills for such Taxes sent directly to Tenant from the
            taxing authority. Tenant shall have the right during the term of
            this Lease, at Tenant's expense, to appeal the amount of any Taxes
            assessed against the Leased Premises. Landlord shall reasonably
            cooperate with Tenant in such appeal efforts.

     13.2   Provided the Tax bills are delivered to Tenant by Landlord in a
            timely manner, or Tenant receives such Tax bills directly from the
            taxing authority in a timely manner, Tenant agrees to pay all such
            Taxes before delinquency and Landlord shall not be obligated to pay
            any penalty for delinquent payment. Any payment due pursuant to this
            Lease provision shall be prorated as of the termination or
            expiration date of this Lease.

14.  UTILITIES

     14.1.  Tenant shall pay, directly to the respective provider with no
            surcharge paid to Landlord, for all sewerage and trash disposal
            services, water, gas, heat, electric current and other utilities
            consumed by it, in or upon the Leased Premises, at rates set by
            local public utility as approved by public authority having
            jurisdiction.

     14.2.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Tenant is able to
            purchase, acquire or otherwise obtain any or all utilities through
            direct access or otherwise, as a result of the deregulation of the
            utilities or as a result of the utility market providing open access
            and customer choice through pilot programs, legislation, or
            otherwise, Tenant shall have the option, at any time and from time
            to time during the term of this Lease, to purchase its utilities
            from any source and to elect the service provider, supplier, and
            such supplier's distributor and/or transmitter for any or all
            utilities servicing the Leased Premises provided that any such
            agreement is terminable, at no cost to Landlord, effective as of the
            termination or expiration of this Lease. In the event Tenant's
            election necessitates new or additional lines and/or equipment,
            Tenant shall provide the same at its sole cost and expense. Landlord
            grants Tenant an easement for purposes of installing and maintaining
            any such lines or equipment.

15.  LIABILITY INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION

     15.1.  Tenant, in its name and at its own expense, shall procure and
            continue in force, commercial general liability insurance against
            damages occurring in the Leased Premises during the term or any
            extensions of this Lease. Such insurance shall be in an amount not
            less than Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) general
            aggregate limit for bodily injury and property damage. A certificate
            of such insurance shall be provided to Landlord not later than the
            Lease Commencement Date, and thereafter upon written request. All
            insurance required under this Section 15 shall be written by
            companies rated A-VIII or higher. Such policy shall state that it
            may not be canceled or modified prior to giving Landlord at least
            thirty (30) days prior written notice.

     15.2.  Should Tenant desire to carry all or part of the insurance coverage
            described in this Section through self insurance and/or under a
            "blanket" policy or policies covering

                                        7
<Page>

            other properties of Tenant, its parent corporation, its
            subsidiaries, or controlling or affiliated corporations, or of any
            assignee of this Lease, such methods of insurance shall be deemed
            compliance with Tenant's obligations under this Section, as to both
            original coverage and renewals. During such time as no event of
            default is outstanding and the tangible net worth of Tenant is not
            less than Fifty Million and No/100 Dollars ($50,000,000.00) as
            determined according to generally accepted accounting principles
            consistently applied, Tenant may self insure the coverage referred
            to in Sections 15.1 and 16.1 provided that to do so does not violate
            any legal requirements. Such self-insurance shall then be deemed to
            be compliant with Tenant's obligations under Sections 15.1 and 16.1,
            as to both original coverage and renewals.

     15.3.  Landlord agrees to defend, indemnify and save harmless Tenant from
            and against any and all claims and demands whether from injury to
            person, loss of life, or damage to property, occurring within the
            Leased Premises as may result from any injury or damage caused by
            acts or omissions of Landlord.

     15.4.  Tenant agrees to defend, indemnify and save harmless Landlord from
            and against any and all claims and demands whether from injury to
            person, loss of life, or damage to property, occurring within the
            Leased Premises, excepting, however, such claims or demands as may
            result from any injury or damage caused by acts or omissions of
            Landlord.

16. CASUALTY (PROPERTY) INSURANCE AND DAMAGE TO LEASED PREMISES

     16.1.  Tenant shall at all times during the term of this Lease and any
            Lease renewals maintain "ALL RISK" insurance on the Leased Premises
            insuring against all risks of physical loss or damage to property in
            the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement
            cost of the improvements located on the Leased Premises. A
            certificate of such insurance shall be provided to Landlord not
            later than the Lease Commencement Date and thereafter annually not
            less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of such
            coverage. Whenever Tenant shall be engaged in making any
            alternation, repairs or construction work of any kind (collectively,
            the "WORK") Tenant shall obtain, or cause its Contractor to obtain
            completed value builder's risk insurance of the estimated cost of
            the Work exceeds $250,000.00 and Tenant or its Contractor shall
            obtain worker's compensation insurance or other adequate insurance
            coverage covering all persons involved in the Work, whether by
            Tenant, its contractors or subcontractors and with respect to when
            death or bodily injury claims could be asserted against Landlord.
            Landlord and any mortgagee named by Landlord from time to time shall
            be named as loss payees on all policies of insurance required by
            this Section 16. Such policies shall state that it may not be
            canceled prior to giving Landlord and mortgagee, if any, at least
            ten (10) days prior written notice in the event of non-payment of
            premium, and thirty (30) days prior written notice in all other
            instances. All insurance required under this Section 16 shall be
            written by companies rated A-VIII or higher. The proceeds from any
            such insurance shall be utilized to repair and rebuild the Leased
            Premises as provided in this Section. Any deficiency between the
            cost of repair and rebuilding, and the insurance proceeds, shall be
            paid by Tenant.

                                        8
<Page>

     16.2.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, in the event the
            Leased Premises or a portion of the Leased Premises shall be
            partially damaged or totally destroyed by fire or other disaster,
            Tenant shall promptly cause the Leased Premises to be restored as
            nearly as possible to their value and condition and character
            immediately prior to such event and subject to all requirements of
            Legal Requirements, subject to such changes as Tenant may reasonably
            require and Landlord reasonably approves prior to commencement of
            reconstruction. Due allowance shall be made for (a) reasonable time
            necessary (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) for Tenant
            to adjust the loss with insurance companies, and (b) delay
            occasioned by strikes, lockouts, and conditions beyond the
            reasonable control of Tenant, provided such delay does not exceed
            six (6) months without Landlord's consent.

     16.3.  Should Tenant desire to carry all or part of the insurance coverage
            described in this Section through self insurance and/or under a
            "blanket" policy or policies covering other properties of Tenant,
            its parent corporation, its subsidiaries, or controlling or
            affiliated corporations, or of any assignee of this Lease, such
            method of insurance shall be deemed compliance with Tenant's
            obligations under this Section, as to both original coverage and
            renewals.

     16.4.  Should the Leased Premises, or a portion of the Leased Premises, be
            rendered untenantable by fire or other disaster, Rent shall not
            abate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
            Lease, if such damage occurs during the last two (2) years of the
            term of this Lease and the cost of restoration of the Leased
            Premises would be more than one-third (1/3) of the replacement value
            of the Leased Premises, as certified by a registered architect,
            Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right to terminate this
            Lease by written notice to the other given within thirty (30) days
            after such occurrence. If this Lease is so terminated, all insurance
            proceeds attributable to the Leased Premises shall be paid to
            Landlord and Landlord alone shall have the right to settle any claim
            with the insurance carrier. If Landlord elects to terminate this
            Lease, such termination shall not be effective if Tenant elects
            (within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord's notice of
            termination) to renew this Lease by exercising any remaining options
            for extending the term of this Lease. If, at the date of the fire or
            other disaster, Tenant shall have paid any Rent in advance, Tenant
            shall be entitled to a proportionate refund.

     16.5.  Provided this Lease is not terminated as set forth in this Section,
            the term of this Lease shall be automatically extended for a period
            of time equal to the period of time the Leased Premises are totally
            untenantable due to fire or other disaster.

17. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

     17.1.  Tenant agrees not to assign to any insurance company any right or
            cause of action for damage to the property of Tenant located in the
            Leased Premises which Tenant now has or may subsequently acquire
            against Landlord during the term of this Lease, and expressly waives
            all rights of recovery for such damage.

     17.2.  Landlord agrees not to assign to any insurance company any right or
            cause of action for damages to the property of Landlord located in
            the Leased Premises which Landlord

                                        9
<Page>

            now has or may subsequently acquire against Tenant during the term
            of this Lease, and expressly waives all rights of recovery from
            such damage.

     17.3.  It is specifically understood this Section shall only apply (a)
            where such insurance as described in this Section allows the insured
            to enter into an agreement waiving recovery rights, and (b) to the
            extent insurance proceeds are recovered.

18.  TENANT'S RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO LEASED PREMISES

     18.1.  Tenant, at its own expense during the term of this Lease, may make
            any alterations or additions to the Leased Premises which it may
            deem necessary, except changes which would impair the structural
            integrity of the Leased Premises, or result, after giving
            consideration to the completed alteration, in a diminution in value
            of the Leased Premises (unless approved by Landlord). Tenant shall
            make all changes in accordance with applicable governmental
            regulations. All salvage from such work shall belong to Tenant. All
            permanent improvements shall belong to Landlord. Tenant shall
            promptly pay all costs and expenses of any such alteration, and
            shall discharge all liens filed against the Leased Premises arising
            out of the same.

     18.2.  All trade fixtures and equipment and other personal property owned
            by Tenant and installed or placed by it in the Leased Premises may
            be removed by Tenant at any time during the term of the Lease.
            Provided Tenant gives Landlord prior reasonable notice, such removal
            may also take place within fifteen (15) days after the expiration
            term of the Lease. Tenant agrees to repair any damage to the Leased
            Premises occasioned by such removal.

19.  ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

     19.1.  Tenant shall have the right to assign this Lease or sublet the
            Leased Premises at any time without Landlord's consent or approval.
            Tenant shall give notice of any and all assignments and subleases to
            Landlord, together with a copy of the applicable instrument.

     19.2.  Unless agreed otherwise by the parties, the assignment of this Lease
            or subletting of the Leased Premises shall not relieve Tenant of its
            obligations under this Lease.

20.  EMINENT DOMAIN

     20.1.  If the entire building on the Leased Premises shall be taken by
            reason of condemnation or under eminent domain proceedings, Landlord
            or Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date when possession of
            the building is taken. If a portion of the building shall be taken
            under eminent domain or by reason of condemnation and if in the
            opinion of Tenant, reasonably exercised, the remainder of the
            building is no longer suitable for Tenant's business, this Lease, at
            Tenant's option, to be exercised by notice to Landlord within sixty
            (60) days of such taking, shall terminate. In such event, any
            unearned Rent paid or credited in advance shall be refunded to
            Tenant. If this Lease is not so terminated, Landlord shall proceed
            promptly and with due diligence, to restore the building. Until so
            restored, Rent shall abate to the extent that Tenant shall not be
            able to conduct business in a reasonable manner, and Rent for the
            remaining portion of the

                                       10
<Page>

            term of this Lease shall be proportionately reduced (based on the
            reduced square foot floor area of the building).

     20.2.  In the event any part of the parking areas of the Leased Premises
            shall be taken by reason of condemnation or under eminent domain
            proceedings, or if as a result of any taking of the Leased Premises
            or other property subject to an easement benefiting the Leased
            Premises any driveway or curb cut access to the Leased Premises will
            be closed, and if in the opinion of Tenant, reasonably exercised,
            the Leased Premises are no longer suitable for Tenant's business,
            this Lease, at Tenant's option by notice to Landlord within sixty
            (60) days of such taking, shall terminate. If this Lease is not so
            terminated, Landlord, at Landlord's expense, shall proceed promptly
            and with due diligence to restore the remaining Leased Premises and
            parking areas to a proper and usable condition. However, Tenant
            shall not have the right to terminate this Lease if Landlord
            provides alternate parking areas which are reasonably acceptable to
            Tenant. Until restored, Rent shall abate to the extent that Tenant
            shall not be able to conduct business at the Leased Premises in a
            reasonable manner, and Rent for the remaining portion of the term of
            this Lease shall be proportionally reduced (based on the effect such
            taking has on Tenant's business at the Leased Premises).

     20.3.  For purposes of this Section, the term "CONDEMNATION OR UNDER
            EMINENT DOMAIN PROCEEDINGS" shall include conveyances and grants
            made in anticipation of or in lieu of such proceedings.

21. TENANT'S DEFAULT

     21.1.  Each of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant and a
            breach of this Lease:

          21.1.1. Any of the following which shall result in final adjudication
                  against Tenant:

               21.1.1.1. The filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against
                         Tenant for adjudication, reorganization or arrangement;
                         or

               21.1.1.2. Any proceedings for dissolution or liquidation of
                         Tenant; or

               21.1.1.3. Any assignment for the benefit of Tenant's creditors.

          21.1.2. Failure to:

               21.1.2.1. Pay Rent for a period of fifteen (15) days after
                         receipt of written notice from Landlord to Tenant; or

               21.1.2.2. Perform any other covenant or condition of this Lease
                         for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of
                         written notice from Landlord to Tenant.

     21.2.  In the event of any default of Tenant, in addition to any other
            remedies available to Landlord by law or in equity, Landlord may
            serve written notice upon Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate
            this Lease upon a specified date not less than thirty (30) days
            after the date of receipt of such notice. This Lease shall expire on
            the date so specified as if that date had been originally fixed as
            the expiration date of the term granted in this Lease unless steps
            have, in good faith, been commenced promptly by Tenant to cure the
            default, and are prosecuted to completion with diligence and

                                       11
<Page>

            continuity. If the matter in question shall involve building
            construction, and if Tenant shall be subject to unavoidable delay by
            conditions beyond the control of Tenant, Tenant's time to perform
            shall be extended for a period commensurate with such delay,
            provided such delay does not exceed six (6) months without
            Landlord's consent.

     21.3.  Upon termination of this Lease for Tenant's default, Landlord or its
            agents may immediately or at any time after the termination,
            re-enter and resume possession of the Leased Premises and remove all
            persons and property from the Leased Premises, by a suitable action
            or proceeding at law, without being liable for any damages, subject,
            however, to Tenant's right to remove trade fixtures and personal
            property, after notice to Landlord, within fifteen (15) days after
            termination of the Lease. No re-entry by Landlord shall be deemed an
            acceptance or a surrender of this Lease. Landlord may then, in its
            own behalf, relet any portion of the Leased Premises for any period
            of the remaining term for any reasonable sum to any reasonable
            tenant for any reasonable use or purpose. In connection with any
            reletting, Landlord may make any changes to the Leased Premises and
            may grant any concessions of free rent as may be reasonably
            appropriate or helpful in effecting such lease.

22.  RENT UNDER TENANT'S DEFAULT

     22.1.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, the Landlord
            shall not be entitled to receive an acceleration of Rent.
            Additionally, in the event this Lease shall be terminated for
            Tenant's default, Landlord's sole remedy shall be to recover from
            Tenant an amount equal to the amount of Rent reserved under this
            Lease for the remainder of the initial term or the option period
            then in effect, as the case may be, less the net rent, if any,
            collected by Landlord on reletting the Leased Premises, which shall
            be due and payable, by Tenant to Landlord, on the several days on
            which the Rent reserved in this Lease would have become due and
            payable. Net rent collected on reletting by Landlord shall be
            computed by deducting from the gross rents collected all actual and
            reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with the
            reletting of the Leased Premises, including broker's commission and
            the cost of repairing, renovating or remodeling the Leased Premises,
            but not including the cost of performing any covenant required to be
            performed by Landlord.

23.  LANDLORD'S DEFAULT

     23.1.  Each of the following shall constitute a default by Landlord and a
            breach of this Lease:

          23.1.1 Subject to the terms of the Lease, Landlord shall neglect to
pay when due any taxes or any obligations on any mortgage or encumbrance
affecting title to the Leased Premises (to which this Lease shall be
subordinate); or

          23.1.2 Landlord shall fail to make any other payment which Landlord is
obligated to pay under this Lease, and such default continues uncured for
fifteen (15) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord; or

          23.1.3 In the event Landlord shall fail to perform any other
obligation specified in this Lease for a period of thirty (30) days after
receipt of written notice from Tenant to Landlord,

                                       12
<Page>

unless steps have been, in good faith, commenced promptly by Landlord to rectify
the default and Landlord pursues the same to completion with diligence and
continuity.

     23.2.  In the event of Landlord's default, in addition to any other
remedies available to Tenant by law, Tenant may, but shall not be required to,
cure such default, and do all necessary work and make all necessary payments on
behalf of and at the expense of Landlord. In such event, Landlord shall, on
demand, pay Tenant the amount so paid by Tenant in curing any such default. If
not paid within thirty (30) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord,
Tenant may withhold Rent and other payments due to Landlord and apply the Rent
or other payments to the payment of the indebtedness. Withholding of Rent or
other payments as provided in this Section or elsewhere in this Lease shall not
constitute a default by Tenant in the payment of Rent or other payments unless
Tenant shall fail to pay such amount withheld within thirty (30) days after a
final adjudication that such amount withheld is owing to Landlord.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if any
Landlord default as is described in this Section continues uncured for forty
five (45) days after initial written notice by Tenant, Tenant may terminate this
Lease at any time.

24.  FORCE MAJEURE

     24.1.  Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, neither
            Landlord nor Tenant shall be in default of the performance of any
            provisions of this Lease to the extent such performance is delayed
            or prevented by strike, war, act of God, or other cause beyond the
            control of the party seeking to excuse such performance; provided,
            however, no such excusable delay shall exceed six (6) months.

25.  SEVERABILITY

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

26.  OBLIGATION OF SUCCESSORS

     26.1.  All of the provisions of this Lease shall bind and inure to the
            benefit of Landlord and Tenant, and their respective heirs, legal
            representatives, successors and assigns. All covenants, conditions
            and agreements contained in this Lease shall be construed as
            covenants running with the land.

28.  MISCELLANEOUS

     28.1.  The captions in this Lease are for convenience only. They are not a
            part of this Lease and do not in any way limit or amplify the terms
            and provisions of this Lease.

     28.2.  This Lease shall be construed in accordance with applicable law of
            the state in which the Leased Premises are located.

                                       14
<Page>

     28.3.  Tenant agrees from time to time but no more often than twice per
            Lease year upon not less than thirty (30) days' prior written
            request by Landlord, to execute and deliver to Landlord in a
            reasonably timely manner Tenant's standard written Estoppel
            Certificate stating (i) whether this Lease has been modified or
            amended and, if so, identifying any such modification or amendment;
            (ii) whether Rent and other charges have been paid more than thirty
            (30) days in advance of the date when due and, if so, the date to
            which they have been paid in advance; and (iii) whether to the best
            of Tenant's knowledge, any uncured default exists on the part of
            Landlord and, if so, specifying the nature of such default.

     28.4.  One or more waivers of any covenant, term or condition of this Lease
            by either party shall not be construed as a waiver of a subsequent
            breach of the same or any other covenant, term or condition. Any
            delay or omission by either party to seek a remedy for any breach of
            this Lease or to exercise a right accruing to such party by reason
            of such breach shall not be deemed a waiver by such party of its
            remedies or rights with respect to such breach. The consent or
            approval by either party to or of any act by the other party
            requiring such consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or
            render unnecessary consent to or approval of any similar act.

     28.5.  The parties acknowledge that the parties and their counsel have
            reviewed and revised this Lease and that the normal rule of
            construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved
            against the drafting party shall not be employed in the
            interpretation of this Lease, or any part of it, or any exhibits or
            amendments or agreements supplementary to this Lease.

     28.6.  All of the provisions hereof shall bind and inure to the benefit of
            the parties hereto, their respective heirs, legal representatives,
            successors and assigns, and all covenants, conditions and agreements
            contained herein shall be construed as covenants running with the
            land.

            recorded before any mortgage placed on the Leased Premises or any
            part of the Leased Premises. Landlord shall pay for any and all real
            estate transfer fees assessed in connection with this Lease or
            assessed in connection with the recording of the short form version
            of this Lease.
