    Force
      Majeure – Unavoidable Delays  Should the performance of any

      of
      the party required to perform the act, the time for performance of the act

      nothing contained in this section shall excuse the prompt payment of rent by

      Lessee, required to perform the act.

    

    Attorneys’
      Fees  Should any litigation or arbitration be commenced
      between the parties to this lease concerning the premises, this lease, or the

      prevailing in such litigation or arbitration shall be entitled, in addition
      to
      such other relief as may be granted, to a reasonable sum for its attorneys

      unimpaired by the holding.

2.           INTERPRETING
      THIS LEASE.

     

    (a)           Usage
      of Certain Words.  Bold italicized print in quotations
      marks, e.g., “Transfer”, indicates definition of a
      term.  A defined term includes all grammatical variations which are
      also shown with initial capital letters.  For example, the defined
      word “Transfer” includes “Transferee”, “Transferring”, “Transferred”, etc., as
      grammatically appropriate in the text.  Cross-references to other
      provisions of this Lease are in bold print following the word
“Paragraph”.  The word “including” shall not
      be construed restrictively to limit or exclude other items not
      listed.  Unless the context otherwise requires, the singular includes
      the plural and the plural the singular, and the masculine, feminine and neuter
      genders are interchangeable.  Unless otherwise specified as a business
      day, a “day” means a calendar day.

     

    (b)           Building
      Standard.  “Building Standard“
means the type, brand, quantity or
      quality of materials, equipment, services,
      insurance coverages, methods, scheduling and usages Landlord designates or
      determines from time to time to be standard for the Building or the
      Project.

     

    (c)           Applicable
      Law.  “Applicable Law“ means
      all laws, statutes, ordinances, court rulings, regulations, guidelines, public
      or private restrictions and requirements now or hereafter adopted by any
      governmental or other authority, board of fire underwriters, utility company,
      property association, declarant or similar body, affecting the Project or this
      Lease, including Title III of The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990,
      the
      Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities and any other law
      pertaining to disabilities and architectural barriers (collectively,
“ADA“) and the regulations, guidelines, restrictions
      or requirements of The Woodlands Commercial Owners Association, Inc. and The
      Woodlands Town Center Owner’s Association.  The validity, performance
      and enforcement of this Lease are governed by the Applicable Law of the state
      of
      Texas (“State“).  All obligations under this
      Lease are performable in Montgomery County, which shall be venue for all legal
      actions.

     

    (d)           Entire
      Agreement.  This Lease contains the parties’ entire
      agreement regarding the subject matter hereof.  There are no
      representations or warranties between the parties not contained in this
      Lease.  No amendment of this Lease shall be effective unless in
      writing and duly signed by the party against whom enforcement is
      sought.  Any invalidated provision of this Lease shall be severed
      from, and shall not impair the validity of, this Lease.  The exhibits
      and riders attached hereto are incorporated herein and made a part of this
      Lease
      for all purposes.

     

    3.           UNDERSTANDING
      THE PROJECT.

     

    (a)           Project
      and Rentable Area.  The
“Project“ consists of the tract of land described
      on
Exhibit ”A” (the “Land“),
      the Building and all appurtenant parking facilities on the Land, landscaping,
      fixtures, Common Areas, service buildings and related improvements now or
      hereafter constructed thereon or on land acquired by Landlord (or its
      affiliates) and added to the Project from time to time.  The
“Office Complex“ consists of the Project, together
      with the adjacent land described on Exhibit ”A-1”
      and the office building and other improvements located thereon and
      all
      appurtenant parking facilities on such land, landscaping, fixtures, common
      areas, service buildings and related such improvements now or hereafter
      constructed thereon or on land acquired by Landlord (or its affiliates) and
      added to the Office Complex from time to time.  The
“RSF“ is the then-current square footage of rentable
      area of a given space calculated using Building Standard methods of measurement,
      which is currently BOMA.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -4-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (b)           Common
      Areas and Service Areas.  Landlord grants Tenant a
      non-exclusive right to use the Common Areas during the Term for their intended
      purposes, in common with others and subject to the provisions of this
      Lease.  “Common Areas“ are all present and
      future areas, facilities and equipment in the Project designated by Landlord
      for
      the common use of the occupants of the Building and their respective customers,
      employees and invitees, including walkways, and driveways, lobbies, landscaped
      areas, loading areas, public corridors, public restrooms, stairs and elevators,
      and drinking fountains.  “Service Areas“ are
      all present and future areas, facilities and equipment serving the Project
      which
      are not generally accessible to Tenant or other occupants of the Building,
      including mechanical, telecommunications, electrical and similar rooms, roof,
      risers and HVAC equipment areas.

     

    4.           TERM.  The
      Term shall commence on the date set forth in Paragraph 1(g) of
      this Lease (the “Commencement Date“), and shall end on
      the last day of the calendar month in the month in which the Term set forth
      in
Paragraph 1(f) would otherwise expire (the
“Expiration Date“).  Landlord shall not be
      liable or responsible for Claims made or incurred by Tenant due to any delay
      in
      tendering the Premises.  If the Term is extended, the Expiration Date
      shall be the last day of the calendar month in which the extended Term would
      otherwise expire.  If the Lease is terminated prior to the Expiration
      Date, the effective date of termination shall become the Expiration Date, except
      for purposes of Paragraph 17.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, Tenant
      may have access to and may occupy the Premises commencing on January 15, 2007,
      provided that Tenant shall deliver to Landlord evidence that the insurance
      required under Section 14(b) of this Lease has been obtained, and such
      entry shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, except
      that Tenant shall not be required to pay Base Rent with respect to the period
      of
      time prior to the Commencement Date during which Tenant occupies the
      Premises.

     

    5.           PREPARING
      THE PREMISES.

     

    (a)           Condition.  Tenant
      agrees to accept the Premises “as-is” and hereby acknowledges that Landlord has
      not undertaken to perform any alteration or improvement to the
      Premises.

     

    (b)           Acceptance.  By
      taking possession of the Premises, and to the fullest extent permitted by
Paragraph 13(f), Tenant
      Waives (i) any Claims due to defects in the Premises and/or the Project except
      (A) minor finish adjustments in work performed by Landlord
      (“Punchlist Items“) specified in reasonable detail by
      Tenant contemporaneously with taking possession, and (B) latent defects in
      Landlord’s work of which Tenant notifies Landlord within 180 days after taking
      possession; and (ii) all express and implied warranties of suitability,
      habitability and fitness for any particular purpose.  Except to the
      extent otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Tenant Waives the right
      to
      terminate this Lease due to Punchlist Items or the condition of the Premises,
      the Building or the Project.  Tenant shall, within 15 days after
      Landlord’s request, execute and deliver a Certificate of Acceptance of the
      Premises substantially in the form attached as
Exhibit ”D”.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -5-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    6.           RENT
      AND SECURITY DEPOSIT.

     

    (a)           Definition.  The
      term “Rent“ includes Base Rent, Tenant’s Share (as
      defined below) of Excess Operating Expenses and any and all other sums payable
      by Tenant under this Lease.  All Rent (plus any applicable taxes
      thereon) shall be payable to Landlord at the Address for Payments set forth
      above, or to such other place or entity as may from time to time be designated
      in writing by Landlord, in lawful money of the United States of
      America.  Tenant shall pay Landlord monthly installments of Base Rent
      and Excess Operating Expenses in advance on or before the first day of each
      calendar month during the Term, without deduction, setoff or prior request
      for
      payment.  Rent for any partial month shall be prorated on a daily
      basis based on a 365-day calendar year.  Tenant may make Rent payments
      by electronic transfer in accordance with Landlord’s instructions.

     

    (b)           Base
      Rent.  Beginning on the Commencement Date, Tenant shall
      pay Landlord the Base Rent.  Concurrently with its execution of this
      Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord prepaid rent equal to the aggregate Base Rent
      payable through the end of the first full calendar month of the
      Term.

     

    (c)           Security
      Deposit.  As additional security for the performance by
      Tenant of Tenant’s covenants and obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall
      deliver to Landlord concurrently herewith an unconditional, irrevocable letter
      of credit (the "Letter of Credit"), it being expressly understood that such
      Letter of Credit shall not be considered an advance payment of Rent or a measure
      of Tenant’s liability for damages in case of default by Tenant.  The
      Letter of Credit shall:  (a) be in the amount of
      $855,804.16;  (b) be in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord
      and Tenant; (c) name Landlord as its beneficiary; (d) be drawn on an FDIC
      insured financial institution satisfactory to the Landlord; (e) expressly allow
      Landlord to draw upon it the amount of default in the event that the Tenant
      is
      in default under the Lease by delivering to the issuer of the Letter of Credit
      a
      sworn written affidavit that Tenant is in default under the terms of the Lease
      and Landlord is entitled to draw thereunder the amount set forth in the draw
      request pursuant to the terms of this Lease; (f) expressly state that it will
      be
      honored by the issuer without inquiry into the accuracy of any such notice
      or
      statement made by Landlord; (g) expressly permit multiple or partial draws
      up to
      the stated amount of the Letter of Credit; (h) expressly provide that it is
      transferable to any successor of Landlord; and (i) expire no earlier than 30
      days following the end of the 120th calendar month following the Commencement
      Date, or provide that it can be drawn in full if it is not replaced at least
      10
      days prior to its expiry date by an identical (except for a later expiry date)
      letter of credit.  Provided Tenant is not in default under this Lease
      and no late payments of rent occur during the year in question, following the
      end of the 36th calendar month after the Commencement Date, and annually
      thereafter through the 96th calendar month after the Commencement Date, Tenant
      may replace and substitute the Letter of Credit with another Letter of Credit
      that reduces annually in a proportionate amount over years four through eight
      of
      the Lease Term, reducing to an amount at the end of the eighth Lease Year to
      the
      sum of two months Base Rent at the rate in effect during the eighth year of
      the
      Term.

     

    7.           EXCESS
      OPERATING EXPENSES.

     

    (a)           Calculation.  During
      the Term, Tenant shall pay Landlord Tenant’s Share of the amount (prorated for
      any partial Fiscal Year) by which Operating Expenses for each Fiscal Year exceed
      the Expense Stop multiplied by the RSF of the Building (“Excess
      Operating Expenses“ or
“EOE“).  As used herein, the term
“Fiscal Year“
shall
      mean Landlord’s fiscal year for
      accounting purposes which currently is the 12-month period beginning January
      1
      and ending December 31.  Landlord shall have the right to change the
      Fiscal Year, from time to time, and, in such event, Landlord shall notify Tenant
      in writing of such change.  Tenant’s Share is equal to the RSF of
the
      Premises divided by the RSF of the Building.  Operating Expenses are
      computed on an accrual basis in accordance with sound accounting principles
      consistently applied.  If the Building is less than one-hundred
      percent 100% occupied or Building Standard services are not provided to the
      entire Building during any Fiscal Year, all Operating Expenses which vary
      directly with occupancy shall be “grossed-up” by Landlord as if the Building had
      been fully occupied and Building Standard services had been provided to the
      entire Building during such Fiscal Year.  Tenant acknowledges that the
      Project is part of a multi-use complex comprised of the Office Complex, the
      Parking Facilities and that the Project will enjoy shared benefits with other
      owners, tenants, occupants or invitees of such multi-use complex.  The

    (vi)           Compliance
      with Applicable Law, including license, permit and inspection fees; and all
      expenses and fees, including attorneys’ fees and court costs, incurred in
      negotiating or contesting real estate taxes or the validity and/or applicability
      of any governmental enactments which may affect Operating Expenses; provided
      Landlord shall credit against Operating Expenses any refunds received from
      such
      negotiations or contests to the extent originally included in Operating Expenses
      (less Landlord’s costs).  Goods and services purchased from Landlord’s
      subsidiaries and affiliates to the extent the cost of same is generally
      consistent with rates charged by unaffiliated third parties for similar goods
      and services (except no such limitation shall apply in

      intention of promoting safety or reducing or controlling increases in Operating
      Expenses, such as lighting retrofit and installation of energy management
      systems.  Each such expenditure shall be depreciated or amortized
      uniformly over a reasonable period of time determined by Landlord, together
      with
      interest on the undepreciated or unamortized balance at the Prime Rate plus
      2%.

     

    (viii)           The
      costs incurred by Landlord for all (A) electrical services used in the
      operation, maintenance and use of the Project; (B) sales, use, excise and other
      taxes assessed by governmental authorities on electrical services supplied
      to
      the Project, and (C) other costs of providing electrical services to the
      Project.

     

    (c)           Estimated
      Monthly Payments.  During each Fiscal Year of the Term,
      Tenant shall pay Landlord, in advance concurrently with each monthly payment
      of
      Base Rent, 1/12th of Landlord’s goodfaith estimate of the EOE to be payable by
      Tenant for such calendar year.  Within 120 days following the
      completion of each Fiscal Year, or as soon thereafter as practical, Landlord
      shall furnish Tenant a statement of actual Operating Expenses for the preceding
      Fiscal Year.  Provided no uncured Event of Default then exists
      hereunder (and no condition exists which, with the passage of time or giving
      of
      notice, would become an Event of Default), Landlord shall promptly refund any
      overpayment to Tenant for the prior Fiscal Year (or, at Landlord’s option, apply
      such amount against Rent due or to become due hereunder).  Likewise,
      Tenant shall, within 30 days of Landlord’s invoice, pay Landlord any
      underpayment for the prior Fiscal Year.  The foregoing obligations
      shall survive the Expiration Date.  Landlord may alter its billing
      procedures at any time, including adjusting estimated EOE based on actual or
      expected increases in Operating Expenses.  In no event shall Base Rent
      be reduced if Operating Expenses per RSF for any Fiscal Year are less than
      the
      Expense Stop.

     

    (d)           Right
      to Audit.  Tenant shall have the right for a period of 30
      days after Landlord delivers to Tenant the statement of Landlord’s Actual
      Operating Expenses for the previous Fiscal Year (the “Review
      Period“) to cause a certified public accounting firm of recognized
      national standing to audit and/or inspect that portion of Landlord’s books and
      records pertaining only to the Actual Operating Expenses for such preceding
      calendar year; provided (i) such audit and/or inspection commences within
      30 days after Landlord makes such books and records available to Tenant’s
      auditor and thereafter proceeds reasonably to conclusion, (ii) such audit
      and/or inspection does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Landlord’s
      business, (iii) both Tenant and the accounting firm conducting the audit
      and/or inspection executes a confidentiality agreement for the benefit of
      Landlord, in the form reasonably requested by Landlord, prior to the
      commencement of the audit or inspection, (iv) such audit is not conducted
      for a contingent fee, and (v) the firm’s report reflecting the results of
      such audit is promptly delivered to Landlord.  This
      paragraph shall not be construed to limit or abate Tenant’s obligation to pay
      the Additional Rental when due as set forth hereinabove.  If such
      audit conducted by Tenant discloses that Tenant has overpaid or underpaid
      Tenant’s proportionate share of Actual Operating Expenses, then, after
      verification of such audit by Landlord or by accountants selected by Landlord,
      any overpayment shall, at Landlord’s election, either be refunded to Tenant (so
      long as Tenant is not then in default of any of the terms of this Lease, in
      which event such overpayment shall be applied against any amount Tenant owes
      as
      a result of such default) within 30 days after the verification of the audit
      or
      credited against Rent obligations next due, and any underpayment shall be paid
      to Landlord within 30 days after the verification of the
      audit.  Should the audit disclose that the amount the Landlord
      invoiced which the Tenant paid was over 5% greater than the Actual Operating
      Expenses per audit, the reasonable third party out of packet cost of such audit,
      not to exceed $1,500, shall be borne by the Landlord.

                paid by
                Landlord shall be included in Operating Expenses), or (2) the exercise
                of

    8.           LANDLORD
      SERVICES.

     

    (a)           Basic
      Services.  Landlord shall, as an Operating Expense,
      furnish the following services to the Premises (to which services Landlord
      may
      at any time and from time to time make reasonable
      changes):  (i) running tap water from the local utility at the
      supply points provided for general tenant use; (ii) heating, ventilating
      and air conditioning (“HVAC“), in season, on weekdays
      between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. and Saturdays by request between 8:00 a.m.
      and
      1:00 p.m., excluding New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day,
      Thanksgiving Day, the Friday after Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and any
      generally recognized business holidays adopted by Landlord for the Project
      (collectively, “Holidays“); (iii) janitorial
      service 5 days per week (excluding Holidays); (iv) annual exterior window
      washing; (v) non-exclusive passenger elevators sufficient for ingress and
      egress to the Premises, subject to proper authorization and the Rules and
      Regulations; (vi) routine maintenance of the Common and Service Areas; and
      (vii) replacement of Building Standard light bulbs, tubes and
      ballasts.

     

    (b)           Electrical
      Service.

     

    (i)           Landlord
      shall furnish Building Standard electrical service to the Premises sufficient
      to
      operate customary lighting, office machines and other equipment of similar
      low
      electrical consumption.  Landlord may, at any time and from time to
      time, calculate Tenant’s actual electrical consumption in the Premises either by
      a survey conducted by a reputable consultant selected by Landlord, or through
      separate meters installed, maintained and read by Landlord.  If such
      survey determines that Tenant’s use of electrical service exceeds ABS, Tenant
      shall pay for the cost of installing and maintaining the
      submeter.  Any ABS electrical consumption determined by survey shall
      be paid by Tenant in accordance with Paragraph
      8(d).

     

    (ii)           Landlord
      reserves the right to select the provider of electrical services to the Building
      and/or the Project.  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable
      Law, Landlord shall have the continuing right, upon 30 days written notice,
      to
      change such utility provider and install a submeter for the Premises at Tenant’s
      expense.  All charges and expenses incurred by Landlord due to any
      such changes in electrical services, including maintenance, repairs,
      installation and related costs, shall be included in the electrical services
      costs referenced in Paragraph 7(b)(viii), unless paid
      directly by Tenant.

     

    (iii)           If
      submetering is installed for the Premises, Landlord may charge for Tenant’s
      actual electrical consumption monthly in arrears at commercially reasonable
      rates determined by Landlord, except as to electricity directly purchased by
      Tenant from third party providers.  Even if the Premises are
      submetered, Tenant shall remain obligated to pay Tenant’s Share of the cost of
      electrical services as provided in Paragraph 7(b)(viii),
      except that Tenant shall be entitled to a credit against electrical services
      costs equal to that portion of the amounts actually paid by Tenant separately
      and directly to Landlord which is attributable to Building Standard electrical
      services submetered to the Premises.

     

    (c)           Parking.

     

    (i)           Landlord
      shall provide the parking described in Paragraph
      1.  No deductions from the monthly charge shall be made for
      days on which the Parking Facilities are not used by Tenant.  Landlord
      shall have the continuing right to change the designation of parking spaces,
      including Reserved Spaces, to a reasonably comparable
      location.  Tenant, its employees, contractors and invitees, shall at
      all times comply with the applicable parking rules issued from time to
      time.  Neither Tenant nor its employees shall use any parking spaces
      designated for visitors or other occupants of the Project.  Tenant
      shall, within 15 days of Landlord’s written request, furnish Landlord a complete
      list of license plate numbers for all vehicles operated by any Tenant
      Party.  Tenant’s sole remedy for any period during which Tenant’s use
      of any parking is precluded for any reason shall be abatement of parking charges
      for such precluded permits.

    (ii)           During
      the initial Term, visitor parking shall be provided to Tenant at no
      charge.  If at any time during the Term, Landlord offers reserved
      visitor parking to other tenants of the Office Complex (other than Huntsman
      LLC
      and Northern Trust), Tenant shall have the right, on not less than 30 days’
prior written notice to Landlord, to rent up to 2 reserved parking spaces for
      the use of visitors to the Premises.  Tenant shall pay Landlord’s
      quoted monthly contract rate for each such space, plus any applicable tax;
      provided that such rate shall not exceed $50.00 per month per space during
      the
      initial Term.

     

    (iii)           The
      Parking Fee (and the fee for any reserved visitor space rented by Tenant in
      accordance with subparagraph (ii)) shall be
      paid to Landlord as
      additional Rent on or before the 1st business
      day of
      each month during the Term.  If the Term is renewed or extended, the
      Parking Fee may be adjusted by Landlord to the then prevailing rates being
      charged for parking spaces in the parking facilities at the Project for Reserved
      or unassigned spaces, as applicable.  Notwithstanding anything
      contained herein to the contrary, the Reserved Parking Spaces shall only be
      reserved during the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through
      Friday.

     

    (iv)           Tenant
      acknowledges that the Parking Facilities may be subject to shared use by parties
      living, working, occupying or visiting buildings adjacent to or in the immediate
      vicinity of the Building.  Neither Landlord’s obligation to provide
      parking pursuant to this Lease nor the Parking Fee shall be reduced by virtue
      of
      such shared use, although shared users shall also be obligated to bear an
      equitable allocation of the Operating Expenses attributable to the Parking
      Facilities, as determined by Landlord.

     

    (d)           ABS
      Services.  Building Standard services are furnished based
      upon Building Standard (i) leasehold improvements; (ii) population
      density; (iii) electrical consumption; (iv) electrical design
      capacity; and (v) hours of operation (not to exceed 61 hours per week), and
      any other applicable qualifications set forth in this
      Lease.  “ABS“ means over and above Building
      Standard (including related modifications and equipment changes).  All
      requests for ABS services, whether HVAC, electrical, janitorial or other
      services, shall be made in writing and are subject to Landlord’s prior written
      approval, which may include, as a condition to such approval, the imposition
      of
      restrictions or other requirements by Landlord.  Landlord shall
      install any equipment or other modifications necessary to furnish any approved
      ABS services, all at Tenant’s expense (including all related consulting,
      acquisition, installation and maintenance costs).  Unless otherwise
      specified in this Lease, Tenant shall, within 15 days of invoicing, pay the
      foregoing expenses, plus a 15% administrative fee, and Landlord’s then-quoted
      standard charges for any ABS services furnished to or necessitated by any Tenant
      Party.  Landlord may withhold its consent to any ABS services or,
      having previously granted consent, terminate or suspend any ABS services (and
      remove any related equipment or modifications at Tenant’s expense), if (A)
      Landlord determines the provision or continuation of such ABS services could
      damage the Building or Project Systems, create a dangerous condition, entail
      unreasonable Alterations or expense, or disturb other tenants in the Building;
      or (B) there exists an Event of Default or other condition which, with the
      passage of time or giving of notice, would become
      an
      Event of Default.  ABS HVAC shall be furnished upon Tenant’s written
      request given no later than 12:00 noon of the preceding business
      day.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -11-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (e)           Service
      Interruptions.  Upon interruption of any service
      furnished by Landlord under this Lease (a “Service
      Interruption“) other than a Service Interruption for scheduled
      maintenance, tests and inspections, Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord,
      in
      which event Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to restore such
      service to the Premises.  No Service Interruption shall
      (i) constitute a breach by Landlord under this Lease; (ii) relieve
      Tenant of any obligation under this Lease (except as provided below); or
      (iii) be deemed a constructive eviction of Tenant from the
      Premises.  Commencing on the 11th consecutive
      business day of any Service Interruption within Landlord’s control, and except
      to the extent such Service Interruption is caused by a Tenant Party, Tenant
      shall, as its sole remedy, be entitled to an equitable diminution of Base Rent
      based upon the pro rata portion of the Premises rendered unfit for occupancy
      for
      the Permitted Use.  In the event of any conflict between this
Paragraph 8(e) and the casualty and condemnation
      provisions of Paragraphs 15 and 16,
      the latter shall control.  Except as provided in the preceding
      sentence, and to the fullest extent permitted by Paragraph
      13(f), Tenant Waives all Claims
      against the Landlord Parties arising from Service Interruptions.

     

    (f)           Third
      Party Services.  If Tenant desires any service which
      Landlord has not specifically agreed to provide in this Lease, such as private
      security systems or telecommunications services serving the Premises, Tenant
      may, subject to the requirements of this paragraph and elsewhere in this Lease,
      procure such service directly from a reputable third party service provider
      (“Provider“) for Tenant’s own
      account.  Tenant shall require each Provider to comply with the Rules
      and Regulations, Applicable Law and Landlord’s reasonable policies and practices
      for the Building.  Tenant acknowledges Landlord’s current policy that
      requires all Providers utilizing any areas of the Building outside the Premises
      to be approved by Landlord and to enter into a written agreement acceptable
      to
      Landlord prior to gaining access to, or making any installations in or through,
      such areas.  Accordingly, Tenant shall give Landlord advance written
      notice sufficient for such purposes.

     

    9.           OCCUPANCY
      AND CONTROL.

     

    (a)           Permitted
      Uses.  The Premises shall be used by Tenant (and its
      permitted Transferees) solely for the “Permitted Use”
consistent with Building Standard services, population
      density and hours of
      operation.  The following ancillary uses shall not be permitted in the
      Premises unless they are strictly limited to the exclusive use of Tenant’s
      employees and do not, in the aggregate, occupy more than 10% of the RSF of
      the
      Premises or of any single floor (whichever is less): credit union; data
      processing; schools, training and other educational purposes; telemarketing;
      collection agency; reservation centers; or storage.  Tenant agrees
      that the following uses are expressly prohibited in the Premises: government
      offices or agencies; medical treatment and health care; restaurants and other
      retail uses; customer service offices of a public utility company; or any other
      purpose which would, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, impair the reputation or
      quality of the Building, create unreasonable or excessive demands or loads
      on
      any Project Systems, Common Areas, Service Areas or parking facilities, impair
      Landlord’s efforts to lease space or otherwise interfere with the operation of
      the Project.

     

    (b)           Rules
      and Regulations.  During the Term, Tenant shall comply
      with the “Rules and Regulations“ established by
      Landlord for the Project, as amended from time to time.  The current
      Rules and Regulations are attached as Exhibit
“E”.  This Lease shall control in the
      event of
      any
      conflict between this Lease and any Rules and Regulations.  Landlord
      shall not discriminate in its application of the rules and Regulations unless
      it
      deems such application commercially reasonable.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -12-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (c)           Consents.  Where
      Landlord’s consent or approval is required in this Lease, Landlord may withhold
      such consent or approval in its sole discretion, except as otherwise specified
      in the applicable provision.  If Tenant requests Landlord’s consent or
      approval under any provision of this Lease and Landlord fails or refuses to
      give
      such consent or approval, Tenant’s sole remedy shall be an injunction or an
      action for specific performance.

     

    (d)           Tenant’s
      Security Responsibilities.  Tenant shall (1) lock the
      doors to the Premises and take other reasonable steps to secure the Premises
      and
      the personal property of all Tenant Parties (defined in Section
13) and
      any of Tenant’s transferees,
      contractors or licensees in the Common Areas and parking facilities of the
      Building and Project, from unlawful intrusion, theft, fire and other hazards;
      (2) keep and maintain in good working order all security and safety devices
      installed in the Premises by or for the benefit of Tenant (such as locks, smoke
      detectors and burglar alarms); and (3) cooperate with Landlord and other tenants
      in the Building on Building safety matters.  Tenant acknowledges that
      any access control or safety measures employed by Landlord are for the
      protection of Landlord’s own interests; that Landlord is not a guarantor of the
      security or safety of the Tenant Parties or their property; and that such
      security and safety matters are the responsibility of Tenant and the local
      law
      enforcement authorities.

     

    (e)           Balcony
      Use.  Tenant shall have access to a balcony (the
“Balcony”) accessible to both Tenant and another tenant
      in the
      Building.  Tenant hereby agrees to use the Balcony in accordance with
      the Rules and Regulations.  Tenant agrees that the portion of the
      Balcony immediately in front of the other tenant’s premises shall not be
      obstructed by Tenant, its employees, contractors or agents, nor shall Tenant,
      its employees, contractors or agents make any unreasonable noise on the Balcony
      which would cause the disturbance of the other tenant in the
      Building.

     

    10.           TENANT’S
      COVENANTS.  Tenant covenants and agrees as
      follows:

     

    (a)           Tenant’s
      Operations.  Tenant shall, at its expense, promptly
      comply with Applicable Law in its use and occupancy of the Premises (including
      construction of Alterations required by Applicable Law).  Tenant shall
      not do or permit anything to be done in the Premises which shall in any way
      (i) obstruct or interfere with the operation of the Project or with the
      rights of other tenants of the Project; (ii) injure, disturb or annoy other
      tenants of the Project, including the emission of offensive odors, noises or
      vibrations; (iii) tend to harm the reputation of Landlord or the Project;
      (iv) deceive or defraud the public; or (v) cause an increase in
      Landlord’s insurance premiums.

     

    (b)           No
      Recordation or Liens.  Tenant shall not record this Lease
      (or a memorandum thereof).  Tenant shall not in any way encumber any
      interest in the Premises or the Project, and shall cause any liens arising
      from
      acts or omissions of a Tenant Party or due to a Claim against a Tenant Party
      to
      be promptly discharged by payment, bonding or otherwise.  If Tenant
      fails to timely discharge any such lien, Landlord may, without further notice
      to
      Tenant, discharge such lien in any reasonable manner determined by Landlord
      on
      Tenant’s behalf and at Tenant’s expense, payable within 30 days of Landlord’s
      invoice.

     

    (c)           Security.  Tenant
      shall (i) take reasonable steps to secure the Premises and the personal
      property of all Tenant Parties in the Common Areas and Parking Facilities of
      the
      Project, from unlawful intrusion, theft, fire and other hazards; (ii) keep
      and maintain in good working order all ABS security devices installed in the
      Premises (such as locks, smoke detectors and burglar alarms), which shall be
      integrated
      with any other Building security systems; and (iii) cooperate with Landlord
      and other tenants in the Project on security matters.  Tenant
      acknowledges that Landlord is not a guarantor of the security or safety of
      the
      Tenant Parties or their property, and that such matters are the responsibility
      of Tenant and the local law enforcement authorities.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -13-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (d)           Taxes.  Tenant
      shall promptly pay directly to the taxing authority all sales and/or ad valorem
      taxes now or hereafter levied on Tenant’s personal property and ABS leasehold
      improvements.  To the extent Tenant’s ABS leasehold improvements are
      not separately assessed, Landlord may make appropriate allocation of taxes
      to
      Tenant to avoid inequitable treatment of other tenants in the
      Building.  Tenant Waives all rights under Applicable Law to protest
      appraised values or receive notice of reappraisal regarding the Project
      (including Landlord’s personalty), irrespective of whether Landlord contests
      same.  To the extent such Waiver is prohibited, Tenant appoints
      Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to appear and
      take all actions which Tenant would otherwise be entitled to take under
      Applicable Law.

     

    (e)           Third
      Party Commissions.  Tenant represents and warrants that
      no broker or agent has represented Tenant in connection with this Lease except
      Palermo Barr CREA, which is acting as Tenant's agent and Transwestern Commercial
      Services, which is acting as Landlord’s agent in connection with this
      Lease.  Tenant shall Indemnify and Defend each Landlord Party against
      any Claims for real estate commissions or fees in connection with this Lease
      made by any party Claiming through Tenant.

     

    (f)           Estoppel
      Letters and Financial Statements.  Within 5 business days
      after written request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord and/or
      its
      designee (i) a current and complete financial statement for Tenant
      certified as true and correct by Tenant’s chief financial officer; and
      (ii) an estoppel letter certifying (A) as true and correct, a copy of
      this Lease and any amendments; (B) the then-effective business terms under
Paragraph 1; (C) whether Landlord is in default and, if
      so, the nature of such default; (D) the date to which Rent has been paid;
      and (E) any other matters Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee or any prospective
      purchaser may require; provided such statements are true and
      accurate.  Tenant’s failure to timely execute and return the requested
      estoppel letter shall be conclusive evidence of the matters set forth
      therein.

     

    11.           REPAIRS,
      MAINTENANCE AND ALTERATIONS.

     

    (a)           Landlord’s
      Obligations.  Landlord shall maintain the roof,
      foundation, exterior windows and surfaces, load-bearing components of the
      Building and the Project Systems, except (i) for wiring, ducts, conduit,
      plumbing or pipes necessary to extend services from the existing Project Systems
      to or within leased space (even if installed by Landlord); (ii) for damage
      caused by a Tenant Party; or (iii) as otherwise provided in this
      Lease.

     

    (b)           Tenant’s
      Obligations.  Tenant shall throughout the Term keep the
      Premises and all furnishings, trade fixtures, equipment and leasehold
      improvements therein in good condition and repair, including all necessary
      repairs and replacements, but excluding ordinary wear and tear and damage from
      casualty or condemnation.  If Tenant fails to do so within 15 days
      after written notice, Landlord may make the necessary repairs or replacements,
      and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, plus a 10% administrative fee,
      within 15 business days of Landlord’s invoice.  Tenant shall not in
      any manner deface or injure any part of the Project, and shall, upon demand,
      pay
      the cost (plus 10%) of Landlord’s repair and replacement of any damage or injury
      caused by any Tenant Party.

     

    
      (c)           Alterations.  Except
        as expressly provided below, no alterations or improvements to the Premises
        (collectively, “Alterations“) shall be made without
        Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably
        withheld.  In no event shall (and it shall be reasonable for Landlord
        to withhold its consent if) any Alterations (i) interfere with construction
        in progress or other tenants in the Project; (ii) adversely affect or alter
        the Project Systems, structural integrity or exterior appearance of the
        Building; (iii) impair Building Standard services or require ABS services
        (either during or after such work); (iv) be visible from the exterior of
        the Premises or the Building; or (v) be permitted if any uncured Event of
        Default then exists (or any condition exists which, with the passage of time
        or
        giving of notice, would become an Event of Default).  At least 15
        business days prior to commencing construction, Tenant shall furnish complete
        plans and specifications for any proposed Alterations for Landlord’s review and
        approval.  All Alterations shall be constructed at Tenant’s expense
        (plus a construction management fee to Landlord equal to 10% of the contract
        price if Landlord elects to supervise the construction) in a good and
        workmanlike manner, and otherwise in compliance with Applicable Law, the
        Rules
        and Regulations, Building Standard construction criteria and Landlord’s other
        reasonable requirements.  Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is not an
        architect or engineer, and that the Alterations will be designed and constructed
        by Landlord using independent architects, engineers and contractors (except
        for
        Alterations for which Landlord’s prior written consent is not required, which
        shall be constructed by Tenant using Landlord’s approved
        contractors).  Accordingly, Landlord does not guarantee or warrant
        that the applicable construction documents will comply with Applicable Law
        or be
        free from errors or omissions, nor that the Alterations will be free from
        defects, and Landlord will have no liability therefor.  Upon
        completion, Tenant shall, at its expense, provide Landlord with “as built” plans
        on Landlord’s CAD system (or other format requested by
        Landlord).

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -14-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (d)           Tenant’s
      Acknowledgements.  Tenant acknowledges that the
      relationship between Landlord and Tenant is that of “landlord-tenant” only, and
      in no way shall Tenant be considered a contractor or an agent of
      Landlord.  Tenant has no rights to enter into a contract on Landlord’s
      behalf in connection with any repair, maintenance or alteration of any property
      owned by Landlord.

     

    12.           ASSIGNMENT
      AND SUBLETTING BY TENANT.

     

    (a)           Transfer.  Tenant
      shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be
      unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, in each instance in accordance
      with Paragraph 12(c), convey, assign, sublet or encumber this
      Lease or any interest herein, directly or indirectly, voluntarily or by
      operation of law, including the merger or conversion of Tenant with or into
      another entity, or sublet all or any portion of the Premises, or permit the
      use
      or occupancy of any part of the Premises by anyone other than Tenant
      (collectively, “Transfer“).   If Tenant
      is other than an individual, any change in “control” of Tenant shall constitute
      a Transfer, and the surviving party in control shall be the
      Transferee.  “Control“ means the direct or
      indirect power to direct or cause direction of the management and policies
      of an
      entity, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or
      otherwise.  Conversely, Tenant shall not sublease space from, or
      assume the lease obligations of, another tenant in the Project without
      Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
      withheld, conditioned, or delayed.    Following any
      Transfer, Tenant (and any guarantors) shall remain fully liable under this
      Lease, as then or thereafter amended with or without notice to or consent of
      Tenant (or any guarantors), and Landlord may proceed directly under this Lease
      against Tenant (or any guarantor) without first proceeding against any other
      party.  Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of any proposed
      Transfer at least 30 days prior to the anticipated effective date of the
      proposed Transfer, which notice shall include a complete detailed written
      summary of the Transfer; the name, address, business and intended use of the
      Transferee; a current audited financial statement for the Transferee certified
      by a recognized accounting firm (if
      applicable); a copy of the proposed Transfer document; appropriate evidence
      of
      the existence, good standing and signature authority of the Transferee in the
      State; and such other pertinent information as Landlord reasonably requests,
      together with Landlord’s then-quoted Transfer processing fee.  If the
      proposed Transferee is subject to any new requirements under Applicable Law
      (including ADA), (i) Tenant shall be liable for any costs or expenses to
      comply with such requirements, and (ii) to the extent such requirements
      require Alterations, Tenant shall deliver for Landlord’s approval plans and
      specifications complying with such additional requirements and acceptable
      security assuring timely, lien-free completion of construction.  If
      the aggregate consideration paid to Tenant for a Transfer exceeds that payable
      by Tenant under this Lease (prorated according to the Transferred interest),
      then Tenant shall, within 15 days after receipt, pay such excess to
      Landlord.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -15-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (b)           Landlord’s
      Options.  Within 20 days after receipt of all required
      Transfer information, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of its election
      (i) to consent to the Transfer or Sublease; or (ii) to terminate this
      Lease as of the effective date of the Transfer as to the space covered by such
      Transfer for the remainder of the Term, in which event Tenant shall, subject
      to
Paragraph 18, be relieved of its obligations accruing after the
      termination date with respect to the terminated interest; or (iii) not to
      consent to the Transfer, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force
      and effect, and (iv) Landlord shall not have the right to terminate this Lease
      in the event Tenant assigns, sublets, or transfers authority, via an acquisition
      or merger of Tenant.  If Landlord fails to timely make such election,
      Landlord shall be deemed to have elected option (iii) above.  Any
      Transfer occurring without Landlord’s consent shall be void and shall constitute
      an Event of Default hereunder.  In any event, all renewal and
      expansion options and other preferential rights under this Lease are personal
      to
      the original Tenant under this Lease and shall not be exercisable by any
      Transferee.  Neither Landlord’s acceptance of any name for listing on
      the Building directory or other signage, nor Landlord’s acceptance of Rent from
      any Transferee, shall be deemed, or substitute for, Landlord’s consent to a
      Transfer.

     

    (c)           Consent.  Landlord
      shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay consent to any Transfer
      (other than an encumbrance of this Lease) pursuant to Paragraph
      12(b)(iii).  Landlord may withhold its consent
      if:  (i) Transferee’s financial condition is not reasonably
      satisfactory to Landlord or does not evidence Transferee’s ability to pay its
      obligations (including those undertaken in connection with the Transfer) when
      due; (ii) the net worth of Transferee (plus any guarantor) is less than
      that of Tenant (plus any guarantor) as of the Date of Lease or the effective
      date of Transfer, whichever is greater; (iii) Transferee refuses to provide
      additional security required by Landlord as a result of a change in financial
      creditworthiness or legal structure, such as increased security deposit,
      guaranties, etc.; (iv) Transferee’s use of the Premises conflicts with the
      Permitted Use or any exclusive usage rights granted to any other tenant in
      the
      Building; (v) the use, nature, business, activities or reputation in the
      business community of Transferee (or its principals, employees or invitees)
      are
      not acceptable to Landlord; (vi) either the Transfer or any consideration
      payable to Landlord in connection therewith adversely affects the real estate
      investment trust (or pension fund) qualification tests applicable to Landlord
      or
      its affiliates; (vii) an uncured Event of Default exists under this Lease
      (or a condition exists which, with the passage of time or giving of notice,
      would become an Event of Default); (viii) Transferee is an occupant of, or
      Landlord is otherwise engaged in lease negotiations with Transferee for, other
      premises in the Office Complex; (ix) Transferee is or has been involved in
      a dispute or litigation with any Landlord Party; or (x) the rental to be
      paid by the Transferee is not equivalent to the then market rental rate for
      similar space in The Woodlands, Texas.  Notwithstanding anything
      contained herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to entertain
      or consider any request by Tenant to consent to any proposed assignment of
      this
      Lease or sublease of all or any part of the Premises unless each request by
      Tenant is accompanied by a nonrefundable fee payable to Landlord in the amount
      of $500.00 to cover Landlord’s administrative, legal, and other costs and
      expenses incurred in processing
      each of Tenant’s requests.  Neither Tenant’s payment nor Landlord’s
      acceptance of the foregoing fee shall be construed to impose any obligation
      whatsoever upon Landlord to consent to Tenant’s request.

     

    
      (d)           Notwithstanding
        the foregoing and for purposes of this Lease, the following shall not be
        considered a Transfer prohibited hereunder or otherwise require Landlord’s
        consent: (i)(if Tenant is a corporation) the addition of stockholders and
        the
        withdrawal of stockholders in the normal course of Tenant’s business or
        (ii) the assignment of this Lease to any successor of Tenant (A) into
        which or with which Tenant is merged or consolidated, (B) arising from the
        transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Lease made in conjunction with the
        transfer of a majority of the assets and liabilities of Tenant, or
        (C) arising from the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of another
        corporation by Tenant or any entity owned or controlled by Tenant, so long
        as in
        each of the circumstances described in (i) and (ii) above, the
        surviving corporation or assignee (I) shall assume all obligations of
        Tenant hereunder, (II) shall have a net worth greater than or equal to
        Tenant, and (III) shall not, by virtue of its identity or contractual
        relations with Landlord or its affiliates, adversely affect the real estate
        investment trust (or pension fund) qualification tests applicable to Landlord
        or
        its affiliates.  In any event, Tenant shall provide prior written
        notice of the foregoing so as to permit Landlord a reasonable amount of time
        to
        make a determination concerning Tenant’s compliance with the requirements of
        (I), (II), and (III) above.

    13.           INDEMNITY.

     

    (a)           Definitions.

     

    (i)           Parties.  The
      “Tenant Parties“ are Tenant and its shareholders,
      members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents,
      contractors, sublessees, licensees and invitees.  The
“Landlord Parties“ are Landlord, the manager of the
      Building, Landlord’s Mortgagee(s) and any affiliates or subsidiaries of the
      foregoing, and all of their respective officers, directors, employees,
      shareholders, members, partners, agents and contractors.  A
“Beneficiary“ is the intended recipient of the
      benefits of another party’s Indemnity, Waiver or obligation to
      Defend.

     

    (ii)           Claims
      and Injuries.  “Claims“ means all
      damages, losses, injuries, penalties, disbursements, costs, charges,
      assessments, expenses (including legal, expert and consulting fees and expenses
      incurred in investigating, Defending or prosecuting any allegation, litigation
      or proceeding), demands, litigation, settlement payments, causes of action
      (whether in tort or contract, in law, at equity or otherwise) or
      judgments.  “Insurable Injuries“ refers to
“advertising injury”, “bodily injury”, “personal injury” and “property damage”
collectively, as such terms are defined in Insurance
      Services Office, Inc.
      (“ISO“) form CG 0001 1093 “Commercial General
      Liability”.  “Tenant’s Insurable Injuries“
are Insurable Injuries occurring (A) in the Premises
      or (B) outside the Premises
      and caused or suffered by a Tenant Party.

     

    (iii)           Indemnify,
      Waive and Defend.  “Indemnify“ means to
      protect and hold a party harmless from and against a potential Claim and/or
      to
      compensate a party for a Claim actually
      incurred.  “Waive“ means to knowingly and
      voluntarily relinquish a right and/or to release another party from
      liability.  No Waiver shall occur except by a writing signed by the
      party against whom the Waiver is claimed.  No Waiver in one instance
      shall be deemed a Waiver in another instance, however similar.  No
      demand for or acceptance of partial payment or performance shall Waive the
      underlying obligation or breach unless expressly agreed in
      writing.  “Defend“ means to provide a competent
      legal defense of a Beneficiary against a Claim with counsel reasonably
      acceptable (and at no cost) to the Beneficiary.

    (b)           Indemnity
      Regarding Tenant’s Performance.  To the fullest extent
      permitted by Applicable Law and Paragraph
      13(f), but subject to any limitations
      contained elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant shall Indemnify and Defend the
      Landlord Parties against all Claims arising, or alleged to arise, from the
      following:  (i) any act or omission of any Tenant Party,
      including the conduct of Tenant’s business in the Premises and any increase in
      the premium for any insurance policy carried by Landlord resulting therefrom;
      or
      (ii) any misrepresentation made by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s
      obligations in connection with this Lease.  This indemnity shall not
      apply to any claims arising solely out of Landlord's gross negligence or willful
      misconduct.

     

    (c)           Indemnity
      Regarding Tenant’s Insurable Injuries.  To the fullest
      extent permitted by Applicable Law and Paragraph
      13(f), but subject to any limitations
      contained elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant shall Indemnify and Defend the
      Landlord Parties against all Claims arising, or alleged to arise, from Tenant’s
      Insurable Injuries.  This indemnity shall not apply to any claims
      arising solely out of Landlord's gross negligence or willful
      misconduct.

     

    (d)           Indemnity
      Regarding Landlord’s Insurable Injuries.  To the fullest
      extent permitted by Applicable Law and Paragraph
      13(f), but subject to any limitations
      contained elsewhere in this Lease, including Paragraph 23,
      Landlord shall Indemnify and Defend the Tenant Parties against all Claims
      arising from Insurable Injuries suffered by third parties in the Common Areas
      or
      Service Areas to the extent caused, or alleged to have been caused, by the
      negligent or willful act or omission of any Landlord Party, but not as to Claims
      for which the Landlord Parties are Indemnified pursuant to Paragraphs
      13(b) and
13(c).   This
      indemnity shall not apply to any claims arising solely out of Landlord's gross
      negligence or willful misconduct.

     

    (e)           Waivers.  To
      the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and Paragraph
      13(f), (i) Tenant Waives all
      Claims against the Landlord Parties arising, or alleged to arise, from
      (A) Tenant’s Insurable Injuries, (B) any Insurable Injuries to any
      Tenant Party caused by parties other than Landlord Parties, or (C) business
      interruption or loss of use of the Premises suffered by Tenant; and
      (ii) Landlord Waives all Claims against the Tenant Parties arising, or
      alleged to arise, from the damage to or loss of tangible property belonging
      to a
      Landlord Party.

     

    (f)           Scope
      of Indemnities and Waivers. All Indemnities, Waivers and
      obligations to Defend, wherever contained in this Lease, (i) shall be
      enforced for the benefit of the applicable Beneficiary thereof, regardless
      of
      any extraordinary shifting of risks, and even if the applicable Claim is caused
      by the active or passive negligence or sole, joint, concurrent or comparative
      negligence of such Beneficiary, and regardless of whether liability without
      fault or strict liability is imposed upon or alleged against such Beneficiary,
      but not to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction holds in a final
      judgment that a Claim is caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence
      of
      such Beneficiary; (ii) are independent of, and shall not be limited by,
      each other or any insurance obligations in this Lease (whether or not complied
      with); and (iii) shall survive the Expiration Date until all related Claims
      against the Beneficiaries are fully and finally barred by Applicable
      Law.  Notwithstanding the potential for extraordinary shifting of
      risk, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that they have executed this Lease in
      material reliance upon inclusion of each such Indemnity and Waiver.

     

    
      (g)           Reliance.  In
        reliance on the Indemnities and Waivers of Tenant contained in this Lease
        and
        Tenant’s agreement to maintain insurance in accordance with Paragraph
        14(b), Landlord shall not carry primary insurance for Tenant’s
        Insurable Injuries.  Tenant acknowledges that (i) if Landlord had
        been required to carry primary insurance for Tenant’s Insurable Injuries, the
        Rent payable under this Lease would have been higher; and (ii) Tenant is
        relying not on Landlord or Landlord’s insurance in order to pay Claims arising
        from Tenant’s Insurable Injuries, but rather on (A) the insurance required
        under Paragraph 14(b) and any additional insurance Tenant
        has elected to carry as to Claims covered by insurance, (B) Tenant’s own
        funds as to deductibles, self-insured retentions under Tenant’s insurance and
        Claims which exceed Tenant’s insurance limits, and (C) third parties (other
        than Landlord Parties) as to Claims arising from the actions of third parties
        which are not covered by Landlord’s Indemnity.

    14.           INSURANCE.

     

    (a)           Landlord’s

    (A)           Commercial
      general liability insurance on ISO Form CG 0001 1093 or CG 0001 0695 (or,
      if Tenant has 2 or more locations covered by the policy and the policy contains
      a general aggregate limit, ISO form amendment “Aggregate Limits of Insurance Per
      Location” CG 2504 1185) in the amounts and with the coverages described in

      favor of Landlord Parties using ISO form CG 2404 1093 is also
      required.

     

    (B)           If

      maintain any other insurance coverages Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagees may
      require.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -19-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (iii)           Evidence

      later than 30 days prior to expiration of the current
      policies.  Copies of endorsements required by this Lease must be
      attached to the Certificates delivered to Landlord.  If requested in
      writing by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord a certified
      copy
      of any insurance policies required by this Lease.  If the forms of
      policies, endorsements, certificates or evidence of insurance required by this
      Paragraph are superseded or no longer available, Landlord shall have the right
      to require other equivalent or better forms.

     

    15.           FIRE
      OR CASUALTY.

     

    (a)           No
      Restoration.  If the Premises or the Building are damaged
      by fire or other casualty to the extent that reconstruction cannot reasonably
      be
      completed within 1 year after the date of damage, as determined by Landlord,
      or
      more than 50% of the RSF of the Premises becomes untenantable due to casualty
      damage within the last 12 months of the Term, then either Landlord or Tenant
      may, by written notice given within 90 days of such damage, terminate this
      Lease, in which event Tenant shall be entitled to a fair diminution of Base
      Rent
      while and to the extent Tenant is unable to conduct its business in the Premises
      prior to such termination.

     

    (b)           Restoration.  If
      this Lease is not so terminated, Landlord shall reconstruct the Premises and/or
      the Building to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior
      to
      the date of damage, except that Landlord shall not be required to spend more
      than the insurance proceeds made available for such purposes by Landlord’s
      Mortgagee.  However, Landlord shall only be required to reconstruct
      the Building Standard leasehold improvements existing in the Premises on the
      date of damage (“Landlord’s
      Contribution“).  Tenant shall pay the difference between
      the total cost of reconstructing the Premises and Landlord’s Contribution
      (“Tenant’s Contribution“).  Prior to
      Landlord’s commencement of reconstruction, Tenant shall place Landlord’s
      estimate of Tenant’s Contribution in escrow with Landlord (or furnish Landlord
      with other commercially reasonable assurances of payment).  Tenant
      shall be entitled to a fair diminution of Base Rent while and to the extent
      Tenant is unable to conduct its business in the Premises.

     

    16.           CONDEMNATION.  If
      any portion of the Premises becomes permanently untenantable following
      condemnation (or conveyance by deed in lieu thereof) of any portion of the
      Project, then either Landlord or Tenant
      may, by written notice given within 60 days after the date of taking, terminate
      this Lease as to the untenantable portion of the Premises effective as of the
      date of taking.  If this Lease is so terminated as to only part of the
      Premises, Landlord shall (a) grant a fair diminution of Base Rent; and
      (b) make all repairs necessary to convert the remaining Premises to a
      complete architectural and tenantable unit, but only to the extent proceeds
      attributable to the area taken (based on an equitable allocation excluding
      any
      award for land) are made available for such purpose by Landlord’s
      Mortgagee.  Tenant Waives the right to assert any claim for the taking
      or conveyance of any right, interest or estate under this Lease, and assigns
      such right to Landlord.  However, Tenant may, to the extent permitted
      by Applicable Law, pursue a claim against the condemnor for its moving expenses,
      inconvenience and business interruption in a proceeding independent of
      Landlord’s condemnation suit, so long as Landlord’s award is not thereby reduced
      or delayed.  Notwithstanding the aforementioned, if the portion of the
      Premises which becomes permanently untenantable following condemnation exceeds
      10% of the rentable square footage of the Premises, Tenant or Landlord may
      terminate the Lease as to the entire Premises by providing the other sixty
      (60)
      days notice.

    17.           DEFAULTS
      AND REMEDIES.

     

    (a)           Events
      of Default.  Each of the following shall be an
“Event of Default“ under this
      Lease:  (i) Tenant fails to pay any monetary obligation under
      this Lease when due; or (ii) Tenant fails to comply with any non-monetary
      obligation under this Lease within 15 days after written notice (15 days in
      the
      case of life safety or asset preservation matters) or, if such non-monetary
      failure is of a nature requiring more than 15 days to cure using reasonable
      diligence, fails to promptly commence such cure within such 15-day period and
      thereafter diligently prosecute same to completion within 10 additional days
      (provided that the foregoing notice procedure shall not apply to the occurrences
      described in clauses (iii) through (ix) below for which only a single
      informative notice without opportunity to cure is necessary); or
      (iii) Tenant fails to comply with any single provision of this Lease more
      than 2 times during any consecutive 12 month period during the Term regardless
      of cure; (iv) the failure to dismiss any petition filed by or against
      Tenant or any guarantor under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (or similar law) within
      45 days; or (v) the assignment of, or appointment of a receiver or trustee
      for, Tenant’s leasehold interest or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or
      any guarantor; or (vi) Tenant fails to take possession of, or subsequently
      abandons or vacates, the Premises in conjunction with Tenant's failure to comply
      with a monetary obligation; or (vii) if Tenant is a legal entity, Tenant
      dissolves, liquidates or otherwise ceases to exist in good standing in the
      State; or (viii) the death or dissolution of any guarantor; or
      (ix) Tenant becomes or is declared insolvent according to Applicable
      Law.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall provide Tenant
      with five (5) days' written notice of a default described in (i) above (a
      "Monetary Default Notice") before Landlord exercises
      its remedies for default hereunder; provided, however, that Landlord shall
      not
      be required to give a Monetary Default Notice more than two (2) times per annum
      with respect to any particular monetary default nor more than two (2) times
      per
      annum during the term of this Lease with respect to any monetary
      defaults.

     

    (b)           Remedies.  Upon
      any Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right: (i) to terminate this
      Lease as to all or any interest therein; (ii) to terminate Tenant’s right
      of possession of all or any part of the Premises (including any parking
      attributable thereto) without terminating this Lease; (iii) to re-enter the
      Premises, change or pick locks, alter security devices and lock out or expel
      Tenant and any other occupant of the Premises without complying with Applicable
      Law, the benefits of which are Waived by Tenant to the fullest extent permitted;
      (iv) to remove and store, at Tenant’s expense, all property in the Premises
      using such lawful force as may be necessary; (v) to apply any Security
      Deposit as permitted under this Lease; (vi) to cure such Event of Default
      for Tenant at Tenant’s expense (plus a 15% administrative fee); (vii) to
      withhold or suspend payment of sums Landlord would otherwise be obligated to
      pay
      to Tenant under this Lease,
      as
      amended; and/or (viii) to require all future payments to be made by cashier’s
      check or money order after the first time any check is returned for insufficient
      funds, or the second time any sum due hereunder is more than 5 days
      late.  In addition, Landlord may, without regard to any notice or cure
      provision and whether or not an Event of Default exists, (A) impose a late
      charge of 10% on any amount not paid within 5 days after becoming due and (B)
      charge interest on any amount not paid when due from the due date through the
      date of payment at the “Default Rate“, which is the
      lesser of 18% per annum or the highest interest rate permitted by Applicable
      Law.  Tenant shall Indemnify and Defend Landlord Parties against
      Claims arising from any breach of Tenant’s obligations under this
      Lease.

    (c)           Election
      of Remedies.  Landlord may exercise the foregoing rights
      and remedies, as well as any other rights or remedies available under Applicable
      Law, without (i) judicial process; (ii) further notice to Tenant;
      (iii) incurring liability of any kind to Tenant, including liability for
      trespass or conversion; (iv) constituting an eviction of Tenant;
      (v) releasing Tenant or any guarantor from any obligation under this Lease;
      (vi) waiting until the Expiration Date; or (vii) prejudicing any other
      right or remedy of Landlord.  All such rights and remedies, together
      with any rights and remedies available under Applicable Law, are cumulative
      with
      no exercise of any one or more of them prohibiting or waiving the exercise
      of
      any other.  Landlord may, at any time after terminating Tenant’s right
      to possess the Premises without terminating this Lease, elect to terminate
      this
      Lease and thereupon pursue any and all other rights and remedies otherwise
      available upon such latter election.

     

    (d)           Measure
      of Damages.  If Landlord either terminates this Lease or
      terminates Tenant’s right to possess the Premises without terminating this
      Lease, Tenant shall immediately surrender and vacate the Premises and pay
      Landlord (i) the cost of recovering the Premises; (ii) all Rent
      accrued through the end of the month in which the termination becomes effective;
      (iii) all expenses reasonably incurred by Landlord in enforcing its rights
      and remedies under this Lease, including attorneys’ fees, court costs and
      interest at the Default Rate; (iv) ”Landlord’s Reletting
      Expenses“ equal to commercially reasonable costs, losses and
      expenses incurred by Landlord in reletting all or any portion of the Premises,
      including the cost of removing and storing Tenant’s FF&E or other property,
      repairing and/or demolishing the Premises, removing and/or replacing Tenant’s
      signage and other fixtures, making the Premises ready for a new tenant,
      including the cost of advertising, commissions, architectural fees and leasehold
      improvements (even if such items are amortized over a new lease term which
      exceeds the balance of the Term), and any allowances and/or concessions provided
      by Landlord; and (v) ”Landlord’s Rental Damages“
equal to the amount (never less than zero) by which
      (A) the total Rent
      payable by Tenant for the portion of the Term that is of would be remaining
      after the month in which the termination becomes effective exceeds (B) the
      Fair Rental Value of the Premises for such period.  For purposes of
      calculating Landlord’s Rental Damages, each monthly payment of Rent and Fair
      Rental Value shall be discounted at the Prime Rate from its respective due
      date
      to its present value as of the date of termination.  The
“Fair Rental Value“ is the total rental that would be
      received from a comparable tenant for a comparable lease of premises in the
      Building of equivalent quality, size, condition, remaining lease term and
      location as the Premises, taking into account rental rates and concessions
      then
      generally prevailing in the market place, the period of time the Premises are
      reasonably expected to remain vacant before commencement of rental payments
      by a
      suitable new tenant, and all other relevant factors.  If any portion
      of the Premises is relet, the Fair Rental Value for such relet portion shall
      be
      calculated based upon the rental receivable by Landlord for the applicable
      reletting term.  The “Prime Rate“ is the
      prime rate then published by Citibank, N.A., its successors or assigns, or
      another major financial institution selected by Landlord.  Until the
      earlier of the termination of this Lease or the final determination of all
      damages under this Lease, all Rent payable under this Lease shall continue
      to
accrue
      and be payable when due during the Term.  Once the aggregate amount of
      damages is determined pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the unpaid balance,
      if any, shall thereafter accrue interest at the Default Rate until paid in
      full.

     

    (e)           Mitigation
      of Damages.  Upon termination of Tenant’s right to
      possess the Premises, Landlord shall, to the extent required by Applicable
      Law
      (and no further), use objectively reasonable efforts to mitigate damages by
      reletting the Premises.  Landlord shall not be deemed to have failed
      to use objectively reasonable efforts to mitigate damages if Landlord refuses
      to
      lease the Premises to a prospective new tenant with respect to whom Landlord
      would be entitled to withhold its consent pursuant to
Paragraph 12(c), or who (i) is an affiliate, parent
      or subsidiary of Tenant; (ii) is not acceptable to Landlord’s Mortgagee(s);
      (iii) requires improvements to the Premises to be made at Landlord’s
      expense; or (iv) is unwilling to accept lease terms then proposed by
      Landlord, including:  (A) leasing for a shorter or longer term
      than remains under this Lease, (B) re-configuring or combining the Premises
      with other space, (C) taking all or only a part of the Premises, and/or
      (D) changing the use of the Premises.

     

    (f)           Attorneys’
      Fees.  In any dispute regarding this Lease, the
      prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, court
      costs and expenses from the other party.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -22-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (g)           Landlord’s
      Lien.  To secure Tenant’s obligations under this Lease,
      Tenant grants Landlord a contractual security interest on all of Tenant’s
      FF&E now or hereafter situated in the Premises and all proceeds therefrom,
      including insurance proceeds (collectively,
“Collateral“).  No Collateral shall be
      removed from the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent until all of
      Tenant’s obligations are fully satisfied (except in the ordinary course of
      business and then only if replaced with items of same value and
      quality).  Upon any Event of Default, Landlord may, to the fullest
      extent permitted by Applicable Law and in addition to any other remedies
      provided herein, enter upon the Premises and take possession of any Collateral
      without being held liable for trespass or conversion, and sell the same at
      public or private sale, after giving Tenant at least 5 days written notice
      (or
      more if required by Applicable Law) of the time and place of such
      sale.  Such notice may be sent with or without return receipt
      requested.  Unless prohibited by Applicable Law, any Landlord Party
      may purchase any Collateral at such sale.  The proceeds from such
      sale, less Landlord’s expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other
      expenses, shall be credited against Tenant’s obligations.  Any surplus
      shall be paid to Tenant (or as otherwise required by Applicable Law) and any
      deficiency shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.  Upon
      request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord a financing statement
      sufficient to perfect the foregoing security interest or Landlord may, at its
      option, file a copy of this Lease as a financing statement, as permitted under
      Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided Tenant is not in default
      hereunder, Landlord agrees to subordinate its security interest as described
      in
      this Section to Tenant’s lenders (“Lender”) if any, requiring a priority
      position under the following circumstances:

     

    (a)           Lender
      is financing Tenant’s purchase of the furniture, equipment or inventory in which
      Landlord is subordinating its security interest (the “Equipment”);

     

    (b)           Tenant
      shall furnish Landlord with a complete schedule of the Equipment financed
      pursuant to the terms hereof, which schedule shall be updated in the event
      of
      any changes;

     

    (c)           Tenant
      shall be prohibited from financing any non-moveable fixture or permanent
      improvement to the leasehold;

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -23-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (d)           Tenant
      shall cause any and all Lenders to give Landlord notice of any public or private
      sale by such Lender of Tenant Equipment;

     

    (e)           no
      public or private sale by any Lender shall be held on the Premises;
      and

     

    (f)           Lender
      can enter the Premises for purpose of removal of the Equipment only
      if:

     

    permitted
      by the agreement between Lender and Tenant; and

     

    Lender
      agrees to restore or repair all damage to the Premises caused by such removal;
      and

     

    Lender
      gives Landlord notice in the event that any of Tenant’s moveable trade fixtures
      or Equipment are removed from the Premises; and

     

    Lender
      indemnifies Landlord for any claim, liability or expense (including reasonable
      attorney’s fees) arising out of or in connection with Lender’s removal of the
      Equipment and Lender’s entry and activities upon the Premises.

     

    (g)           Landlord’s
      subordination shall not be effective unless and until a separate agreement
      is
      entered into between Lender and Landlord respecting the foregoing
      items.

     

    The
      statutory lien for Rent is not hereby waived, the express contractual lien
      herein granted being in addition and supplementary thereto.

     

    (h)           Force
      Majeure.  Time is of the essence.  However, if
      either party is unable to perform any obligations under this Lease due to
      unavailability of materials or equipment, strikes or other labor difficulties,
      governmental restrictions, casualties or other causes beyond such party’s
      reasonable control, such obligation shall be stayed for the duration of such
      condition.  This Paragraph shall not affect or postpone the payment of
      Rent or other monies by Landlord or Tenant.

     

    18.           END
      OF TERM.

     

    (a)           Surrender.  Upon
      the earlier of the Expiration Date or Landlord’s termination of Tenant’s right
      of possession of the Premises, Tenant shall peaceably surrender the Premises
      (including all Alterations and leasehold improvements) to Landlord,
      vacuum-clean, free of debris and in the same condition existing as of the
      Commencement Date, subject to ordinary wear and tear and except for damage
      due
      to casualty and condemnation.

     

    (b)           Removal
      of Improvements and Tenant’s Property.  Upon the earlier
      of the Expiration Date or Landlord’s termination of Tenant’s right of possession
      of the Premises pursuant to Paragraph 17(b), and except as
      otherwise expressly provided in writing by Landlord at the time of installation,
      (i) all leasehold improvements and Alterations installed in the Premises,
      including all built-in fixtures and cabling, shall become Landlord’s property;
      and (ii) provided there is no uncured Event of Default, Tenant shall, at
      its expense, immediately remove all of Tenant’s FF&E from the
      Premises.  However, except as otherwise expressly provided in writing
      by Landlord at the time of installation, Landlord may, at Tenant’s expense,
      remove from the Premises (or require to be removed by Tenant or an approved
      third party contractor) any or all Alterations, cabling and/or ABS leasehold
      improvements.  Tenant shall, within 30 days after Landlord’s invoice,
      reimburse Landlord for the cost to restore the Premises and otherwise
      repair any damage caused by any of the foregoing removal work.  All of
      Tenant’s foregoing obligations shall survive the Expiration Date.  If
      Tenant’s FF&E is not timely removed, Landlord may, upon 10 days written
      notice to Tenant’s address (which notice Tenant agrees shall be deemed
“reasonable”), and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law:
      (i) treat such property as abandoned by Tenant with full rights of
      ownership in Landlord; (ii) remove and store such property at Tenant’s
      expense with reimbursement by Tenant to Landlord upon demand; and/or
      (iii) sell or dispose of such property without delivering any proceeds to
      Tenant.  Tenant Waives all Claims against the Landlord Parties arising
      from any right available to Tenant under Applicable Law restricting Landlord’s
      foregoing rights, and the right to assert any Claim against Landlord for the
      value or use of any property abandoned by Tenant in the Premises.

     

    (c)           Hold
      Over.  If any Tenant Party remains in possession of the
      Premises after the Expiration Date, whether or not with Landlord’s consent but
      without executing a new lease (“Hold Over“), the Term
      shall not be extended, nor shall any rights or remedies of Landlord be adversely
      affected, even if Landlord thereafter accepts Rent.  Instead, during
      the Hold Over, Tenant shall be deemed a tenant at sufferance (and not a
      tenant at will or month-to-month tenant) subject to all provisions of this
      Lease
      except that Base Rent and EOE shall be one hundred fifty percent (150%) of
      (i) the amount payable during the last month of the Term, or
      (ii) Landlord’s then-quoted rental rate for comparable space in the
      Project.  Either party may terminate the Hold Over immediately upon
      written notice.  Tenant shall pay Landlord all damages incurred by
      reason of any Hold Over.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -24-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    19.           NOTICES.  All
      notices shall be delivered by hand, reputable overnight courier or certified
      mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, or by legible facsimile,
      to
      Landlord at the Addresses for Notice specified in the Business Points (or to
      such other address as may be specified by written notice to Tenant); and to
      Tenant at the appropriate address(es) specified in the Business
      Points.  Notice shall be deemed given upon tender of delivery, if sent
      by hand; the day after posting, if sent by overnight courier; upon three days
      after posting, if sent by certified letter; or the next business day after
      the
      date of delivery, if sent by confirmed facsimile with a hard copy posted on
      the
      date of the confirmed facsimile, except that a change of address notice shall
      be
      effective 5 business days after actual receipt.  Notices to Tenant
      addressed to the Premises may be made by posting on the entrance door of the
      Premises.

     

    20.           LANDLORD’S
      FINANCING.  This Lease is subordinate to all liens,
      encumbrances, easements, deeds of trust and ground leases now or hereafter
      encumbering the Building, and all refinancings, replacements, modifications,
      extensions or consolidations thereof.  Tenant shall attorn to any
      mortgagee, ground lessor, trustee under a deed of trust or purchaser at a
      foreclosure or trustee’s sale (“Landlord’s Mortgagee“)
      as “Landlord” under this Lease.  Tenant shall, within 5 business days
      after Landlord’s request, execute and deliver to Landlord in recordable form
      whatever true and correct instruments may be required to evidence such
      subordination and attornment.  If Tenant fails to execute and deliver
      such instrument as required, the statements therein shall be deemed to be
      true.  Landlord’s Mortgagee may at any time subordinate its lien to
      this Lease by unilaterally executing a subordinating
      instrument.  Tenant shall not exercise any right or remedy under this
      Lease or at law or in equity unless (a) Tenant gives written notice to
      Landlord and Landlord’s Mortgagee (whose name and address shall be provided upon
      request) specifying the exact nature of the alleged breach and how it may be
      remedied; and (b) both Landlord and Landlord’s Mortgagee fail to cure same
      within 30 days after receipt of Tenant’s notice (plus such additional time as
      Landlord’s Mortgagee may require).  If Landlord’s Mortgagee succeeds
      to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, Landlord’s Mortgagee shall not be
      (a) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including
      Landlord); (b) liable for the return of any security deposit unless
      delivered to Landlord’s Mortgagee; (c) subject to any offsets or defenses
      which Tenant might have against any prior landlord
      (including Landlord); or (d) bound by any rent or additional rent which
      Tenant might have paid for more than the current month to any prior landlord
      (including Landlord).

     

    21.           RIGHTS
      RESERVED BY LANDLORD.  Landlord (and its designated
      agents, contractors and managers) shall have the following rights:

     

    (a)           Access
      to the Premises.  To enter the Premises upon reasonable
      notice (except in emergencies when no notice is required) for purposes of
      (i) inspection; (ii) making repairs, additions, improvements or
      alterations to the Premises, any adjoining space or the Building as permitted
      or
      required under this Lease or as Landlord elects; (iii) confirming Tenant’s
      compliance with this Lease; and (iv) exhibiting the Premises to prospective
      purchasers, mortgagees or tenants.  During each entry, Landlord shall
      use reasonable good faith efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s use of
      the Premises.  In no event shall Tenant be deemed constructively
      evicted nor entitled to any abatement of Rent.  Landlord shall at all
      times retain a mechanical or card key to all doors in or about the Premises,
      except Tenant’s vaults, safes and other portions of the Premises reasonably
      designated by Tenant in writing as “secure areas” (to which Landlord shall not
      be required to provide Building Standard maintenance or janitorial
      services).  In emergencies or if otherwise required to comply with
      this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means necessary
      to
      open any doors, including doors to any designated secure areas, as may be
      reasonably necessary under the circumstances.  Landlord may erect
      scaffolding and other structures where reasonably required by the character
      of
      the work.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -25-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (b)           Project
      Modifications.  To alter, decorate and repair or
      construct new improvements upon the Project or any adjacent property,
      structurally or otherwise, as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion,
      including changing the arrangement, location and/or size of entrances,
      passageways, doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, restrooms and other public
      components, and to place, inspect, repair and replace in the Premises (below
      floors, above ceilings or next to columns) any utilities, pipes, cables or
      similar equipment serving areas outside the Premises, or to rename the
      Project.

     

    (c)           Intentionally
      Deleted.

     

    (d)           Other
      Rights.  To take such other measures Landlord deems
      necessary or advisable for the ongoing operation, maintenance and protection
      of
      the Project.  Tenant shall fully cooperate with all of such further
      measures undertaken by Landlord.

     

    22.           HAZARDOUS
      MATERIALS.

     

    (a)           Definition.  A
      “Hazardous Material“ is any toxic, ignitable, reactive
      or corrosive substance now or hereafter regulated by any governmental authority,
      including any substance defined by Applicable Law as a “hazardous waste”,
“extremely hazardous waste”, “solid waste”, “toxic substance”, “hazardous
      substance”, “hazardous material” or “regulated
      substance”.  “Contamination“ means any
      release or disposal of a Hazardous Material in or about the Premises or the
      Project which may result in a fine, use restriction, cost recovery lien,
      remediation requirement or other government action or imposition affecting
      any
      Landlord Party. For purposes of this Lease, Claims arising from Contamination
      shall include diminution in value, restrictions on use, adverse impact on
      leasing space, and all costs of site investigation, remediation, removal and
      restoration work.

     

    (b)           Restrictions.  No
      Hazardous Material shall be brought upon, kept, used or disposed of in or about
      the Premises or the Project by any Tenant Party without Landlord’s prior written
      consent, unless Tenant
      (i) demonstrates to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction that any such
      Hazardous Material is necessary in the ordinary course of Tenant’s business and
      shall be used, kept and stored in compliance with Applicable Law; and
      (ii) gives Landlord written notice of any such Hazardous Material,
      including the current material safety data sheet.

     

    (c)           Remediation.  If
      Contamination occurs as a result of an act or omission of a Tenant Party, Tenant
      shall, at its expense, promptly take all actions necessary to comply with
      Applicable Law and to return the Premises, the Project and/or any adjoining
      property to its condition prior to such Contamination, subject to Landlord’s
      prior written approval of Tenant’s proposed methods, times and procedures for
      remediation.  Tenant shall provide Landlord reasonably satisfactory
      evidence that such actions shall not adversely affect any Landlord Party or
      Contaminated property.  Landlord may require that a representative of
      Landlord be present during any such actions and/or that such actions be taken
      after business hours.  If Tenant fails to take any necessary
      remediation actions within 30 days after written notice from Landlord or an
      authorized governmental agency, Landlord may take such actions and Tenant shall
      reimburse Landlord therefor, plus a 15% administrative fee, within 30 days
      of
      Landlord’s invoice.

     

    23.           LANDLORD’S
      INTEREST.

     

    (a)           Landlord’s
      Liability.  Landlord’s liability for failure to perform
      its obligations under this Lease shall be recoverable solely out of proceeds
      from judicial sale upon execution and levy made against Landlord’s interest in
      the Building.  Except as provided in the preceding sentence, Tenant
      waives (i) all other rights of recovery against any Landlord Party; and
      (ii) all Claims against any Landlord Party and Landlord’s Mortgagee for
      consequential, special or punitive damages allegedly suffered by any Tenant
      Party, including lost profits and business interruption.  No Landlord
      Party shall have any personal liability under this Lease.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -26-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (b)           Conveyance.  Landlord
      may convey any or all of its interest in this Lease or the Project at any
      time.  The term “Landlord” means only the owner of the Landlord’s
      interest in this Lease at the time in question.  Immediately upon
      conveyance by Landlord of such interest, the conveying party shall be released
      from all obligations of “Landlord” thereafter arising under this Lease, and
      Tenant shall attorn and look solely to the new Landlord for performance of
      such
      obligations.  Upon conveyance, the balance of any Security Deposit
      shall be delivered to the new Landlord and Tenant shall thereafter look solely
      to the new Landlord for application or return.

     

    24.           EXECUTION
      AND SIGNING AUTHORITY.  Draft documents submitted for
      review do not convey any right to Tenant in the Premises or other
      space.  This Lease shall become effective only upon full execution and
      delivery by all parties and, if required, upon approval by Landlord’s
      Mortgagee.  This Lease may be executed in counterparts, each of which
      shall be an original and all of which shall be one and the same
      instrument.  Each party and its counsel have reviewed and revised this
      Lease after arms-length negotiations.  Accordingly, the rule of
      construction that ambiguities are resolved against the drafting party shall
      not
      apply to this Lease or any amendments hereof.  This Lease shall bind
      and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, executors,
      administrators, successors and permitted Transferees, unless otherwise expressly
      set forth herein.  Each individual person or entity executing this
      Lease as Tenant shall be jointly and severally bound and liable as “Tenant”
under this Lease.  If Tenant is a legal entity, each person signing
      this Lease for Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord (who reserves the
      right to request satisfactory evidence) that he is authorized to do so without
      further signature or authorization from such legal entity; that this Lease
      is
      fully binding on Tenant; and that Tenant is qualified to do business in the
      State.  Except
      as otherwise expressly extended to the Landlord Parties or the Tenant Parties
      in
      this Lease, no beneficial rights are given to any third parties by or under
      this
      Lease.

     

    25.           QUIET
      ENJOYMENT.  So long as Tenant performs its obligations
      under this Lease, it shall have the right to occupy the Premises without
      hindrance from Landlord or any person lawfully Claiming through Landlord,
      subject to the terms of this Lease, all superior mortgages, ground leases,
      deeds
      of trust and agreements, insurance requirements, and Applicable
      Law.  By execution of the Lease, Tenant consents to (i) the
      annexation of the Project into the lands covered by the Restrictive Covenants
      (as defined below) and agrees that its leasehold interest and all of its rights
      hereunder shall be subject and subordinate to the terms and provisions of the
      Restrictive Covenants, and  (ii) all plats and replats of the
      Land, if any, in compliance with all applicable laws. The term
“Restrictive Covenants“ shall mean (i) the
      Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions of The Woodlands Commercial Owners
      Association recorded in the Real Property Records of Montgomery County, Texas,
      under Clerk’s File No 9357930 and (ii) the Declaration of Covenants and

    26.           SIGNAGE.

     

    (a)           In
      General.  Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior
      written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
      or delayed), paint, affix, erect, display or distribute any signs,
      advertisements or notices upon (or visible from) the exterior of the Premises
      or
      elsewhere in the Project.  However, Tenant may display Building
      Standard tenant identification information approved by Landlord (which approval
      shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) in the main building
      directory and/or adjacent to the main entrance to the Premises.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -27-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (b)           Monument
      Signage.  Tenant shall have the right to one back
      illuminated panel, including both sides, on the listing strip monument sign
      on
      Timberloch Drive through the Term. So long as (i) Tenant is not in current
      default under the terms of this Lease; (ii) Tenant is currently in possession
      of
      the Premises; and (iii) Tenant has obtained Landlord's approval of the sign
      as
      provided below, then Tenant may install, at Tenant's sole cost and expense,
      one
      panel of exterior Building signage on the listing strip monument sign on
      Timberloch Drive in an area mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant (the
      "Sign"); provided that (a) Tenant obtains all necessary
      approvals, with reasonable help from Landlord, from the Improvement District
      of
      The Woodlands, the City of The Woodlands and all other governmental authorities
      having jurisdiction over Tenant, the Building, or the Sign, (b) the Sign conform
      to all applicable laws, rules and regulations of any governmental authorities
      having jurisdiction over the Sign or the Building, and (c) Tenant delivers
      to
      Landlord certificates of insurance evidencing that Tenant's contractors, agents,
      workmen, engineers or other persons installing the Sign have in effect valid
      workers' compensation, public liability and builder's risk insurance in amounts
      and with such companies and in such forms as Landlord may consider necessary
      or
      appropriate for its protection.  Following installation of the Sign,
      Tenant shall remain liable for all costs related to the maintenance and, if
      applicable, illumination of the Sign for their individual panel. The location,
      size, dimensions, configuration, and illumination of any such Sign shall be
      subject to Landlord's prior approval. Tenant must obtain Landlord's written
      consent to any proposed Sign prior to its fabrication and installation, and
      Tenant may not alter or modify any of the plans or specifications for the Sign
      without Landlord’s prior written consent.  Landlord reserves the right
      to withhold consent to any sign that, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord,
      is
      not harmonious with the design standards of the Building.  To obtain
      Landlord's consent, Tenant shall submit design drawings to Landlord, showing
      the
      type and sizes of all lettering; the colors, finishes and types of materials
      used; and (if applicable and Landlord consents) any provisions for illumination
      (provided that the illumination shall not consist of flashing lights or
      illumination which
      consists of changing colors or brightness).  Such Sign shall only
      contain letters (and, at Tenant’s option, Tenant’s logo, subject to Landlord’s
      approval thereof).  Tenant agrees that Landlord shall have the right
      to temporarily remove and replace the Sign in connection with and during the
      course of any repairs, changes, alterations, modifications, renovations or
      additions to the Building (at Landlord’s expense, unless the need for the same
      is due to actions of Tenant).  If during the Lease Term (and any
      extensions thereof) Tenant is in default under the terms of this Lease after
      the
      expiration of applicable cure periods, then Tenant's rights granted herein
      will
      terminate and Landlord may remove any such signage at Tenant's
      cost.  Upon expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, Tenant
      shall, at its sole cost and expense, remove the Sign and repair all damage
      caused by such removal.  

     

    (c)           Rights
      Reserved.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
      contained in this Paragraph 26,
      or in any approvals or other communications, Landlord reserves the
      right, in its sole discretion and at its expense, to change any existing signage
      or modify its signage guidelines for the Project at any time and from time
      to
      time; however, Tenant shall not be obligated to incur any out-of-pocket costs
      or
      expenses as a result of such changes, except as provided herein.

     

    27.           CONTINGENCY.  The
      Premises is subject to the right of first refusal of Huntsman LLC, which
      Huntsman LLC must exercise, if at all, by January 12,
      2007.  Consequently, this Lease shall become effective only upon the
      earlier of full execution and delivery by Landlord and Tenant, or upon Huntsman
      LLC’s failure or refusal or waiver to lease the Premises in accordance with its
      right of first refusal.

    28.           Tenant
      agrees that, as between Tenant and Landlord, Landlord has the sole and absolute
      right to contest taxes levied against the Premises and the Property (other
      than
      taxes levied directly against Tenant’s personal property within, or sales made
      from, the Premises).  Therefore, Tenant, to the fullest extent permitted by
      law, irrevocably waives any and all rights that Tenant may have to receive
      from
      Landlord a copy of notices received by Landlord regarding the appraisal or
      reappraisal, for tax purposes, of all or any portion of the Premises or the
      Property (including, without limitation, any rights set forth in §41.413 of the
      Texas Property Tax Code, as such may be amended from time to time).
 Additionally, Tenant, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hereby
      irrevocably assigns to Landlord any and all rights of Tenant to protest or
      appeal any governmental appraisal or reappraisal of the value of all or any
      portion of the Premises or the Property (including, without limitation, any
      rights set forth in §41.413 and §42.015 of the Texas Property Tax Code, as such
      may be amended from time to time).  Tenant agrees without reservation that
      it will not protest or appeal any such appraisal or reappraisal before a
      governmental taxing authority without the express written authorization of
      Landlord.

     

    29.           Tenant
      waives its rights under the Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act,
      Section 17.41 et seq., Business & Commerce Code, a law that gives consumers
      special rights and protections.  After consultation with Tenant’s attorney,
      Tenant voluntarily consents to this waiver.

     

    30.           Landlord
      and Tenant agree that each provision of this Lease for determining charges
      and
      amounts payable by Tenant (including provisions regarding Tenant’s Share of
      Excess Operating Expenses) is commercially reasonable and, as to each such
      charge or amount, constitutes a statement of the amount of the charge or a
      method by which the charge is to be computed for purposes of Section 93.012
      of
      the Texas Property Code.

     

    31.           JOINT
      AND SEVERAL.   If Tenant is comprised of more than
      one entity, the term “Tenant” as used in this Lease means all or either or any
      of such entities and the obligations of Tenant hereunder shall be joint and
      several.

    ACCORDINGLY,
      the parties execute and deliver this Lease as of the Date of Lease.

     

    Special
      Notice: This Lease contains Waivers and Indemnities which may materially affect
      Tenant’s rights and remedies under Applicable Law regarding this Lease,

    OPTION
      TO EXTEND

     

    1.           Tenant
      may, at its option, extend the Term for up to two renewal periods of 5 years
      each (collectively, the “Renewal Period”) by written
      notice to Landlord (the “Renewal Notice”) given no
      earlier than 12 and no later than 9 months prior to the expiration of the then
      existing Term, provided that at the time of such notice and at the commencement
      of such Renewal Period, (i) Tenant remains in occupancy of not less than the
      entire Premises, and (ii) no Event of Default exists under the
      Lease.  The Base Rent payable during the Renewal Period shall be the
      Fair Market Value Rental Rate (as defined below) for the Premises, which may
      be
      a stepped rate, provided in no event will Fair Market Value Rental Rate be
      less
      than the then prevailing Base Rent with 3% annual increases annually
      thereafter.  Except as provided in this Rider No.
      1, all terms and conditions of the Lease shall continue to apply
      during the Renewal Period.  Notwithstanding the aforementioned, the
      first year of Base Rent payable during the Renewal Period shall not be less
      than
      $36.50 per NRSE per year and it shall increase annually by 3%.

     

    2.           Within
      30 days of the Renewal Notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the Base Rent
      for
      such Renewal Period (the “Rental
      Notice”).  Tenant may accept the terms set forth in the
      Rental Notice by written notice (the “Acceptance
      Notice”) to Landlord given within 15 days after receipt of the
      Rental Notice.  If Tenant timely delivers its Acceptance Notice,
      Tenant shall, within 15 days after receipt, execute a lease amendment confirming
      the Base Rent and other terms applicable during the Renewal
      Period.  If Tenant fails timely (i) to deliver its Acceptance Notice
      or (ii) to execute and return the required lease amendment, then this Option
      to
      Extend shall automatically expire and be of no further force or
      effect.  In addition, this Option to Extend shall terminate upon
      assignment of this Lease or subletting of all or any part of the Premises,
      except with respect to an assignment or subletting permitted pursuant to Section
      12(d) of this Lease.

     

    3.           The
      “FairMarket Value
Rental
      Rate”
is the rate (or rates) a willing tenant would pay and a willing
      landlord would
      accept for a comparable transaction (i.e., a renewal in comparable space and
      in
      a comparable building) as of the commencement date of the applicable term,
      neither being under any compulsion to lease and both having reasonable knowledge
      of the relevant facts, considering the highest and most profitable use if
      offered for lease in the open market with a reasonable period of time in which
      to consummate a transaction.  In calculating the Fair Market Value
      Rental Rate, all relevant factors will be taken into account, including the
      location and quality of the Building, lease term, amenities of the Project,
      condition of the space and any concessions and allowances commonly being offered
      by Landlord for comparable transactions in the Project.  The parties
      agree that the best evidence of the Fair Market Value Rental Rate will be the
      rate then charged for comparable transactions in the Office
      Complex.
