                       American Industrial Real Estate Association

1. PARTIES. This Sublease, dated, for reference purposes only, September 14,
2000, is made by and between Lee Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a California
Corporation (herein called "Sublessor"), and Maxsilk Inc., a California
Corporation (herein called "Sublessee").

2. PREMISES. Sublessor hereby subleases to Sublessee and Sublessee hereby
subleases from Sublessor for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the
conditions set forth herein, that certain real property situated in the
County of Los Angeles, State of California, commonly known as 1460 Santa
Anita Avenue, South El Monte, CA 91733 and described as an  approximately
14,560 square foot free-standing concrete block building on approximately .70
acres of land.

Said real property, including the land and all improvements thereon, is
hereinafter called the "Premises".

3. TERM

     3.1 TERM. The term of this Sublease shall be for Twenty-four (24) months
commencing on December 1, 2000 and ending on November 30, 2002 unless sooner
terminated pursuant to any  provision hereof. Please refer to Paragraph 12a --
Right to Extend.

     3.2 DELAY IN COMMENCEMENT. Notwithstanding said commencement date, if
for any reason Sublessor cannot deliver possession of the Premises to
Sublessee on said date, Sublessor shall not be subject to any liability
therefore, nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Lease or the
obligations of Sublessee hereunder or extend the term hereof, but in such
case Sublessee shall not be obligated to pay rent until possession of the
Premises is tendered to Sublessee; provided, however, that if Sublessor shall
not have delivered possession of the Premises within sixty (60) days from
said commencement date. Sublessee may, at Sublessee's option, by notice in
writing to Sublessor within ten (10) days thereafter, cancel this Sublease,
in which event the parties shall be discharged from all obligations
thereunder. If Sublessee occupies the Premises prior to said commencement
date, such occupancy shall be subject to all provisions hereof, such
occupancy shall not advance the termination date and Sublessee shall pay rent
for such period at the initial monthly rates set forth below.

4. RENT. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor as rent for the Premises equal
monthly payments of $7,280.00, in advance, on the 1st day of each month of
the term hereof. Sublessee shall pay Sublessor upon the execution hereof
$7,280.00 as rent for December 1, 2000 -- December 31, 2000. Please refer to
Paragraph 12b -- Rental Increase. Rent for any period during the term hereof
which is for less than one month shall be a prorata portion of the monthly
installment. Rent shall be payable in lawful money of the United States to
Sublessor at the address stated herein or to such other persons or at such
other places as Sublessor may designate in writing.

5. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Sublessee shall deposit with Sublessor upon execution
hereof $7,280.00 as security for Sublessee's faithful performance of
Sublessee's obligations hereunder. If Sublessee fails to pay rent or other
charges due hereunder, or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of
this Sublease, Sublessor may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said
deposit for the payment of any rent or other charge in default or for the
payment of any other sum to which Sublessor may become obligated by reason of
Sublessee's default, or to compensate Sublessor for any loss or damage which
Sublessor may suffer thereby. If Sublessor so uses or applies all or any
portion of said deposit, Sublessee shall within ten (10) days after written
demand therefore deposit cash with Sublessor in an amount sufficient to
restore said deposit to the full amount hereinabove stated and Sublessee's
failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Sublease. Sublessor shall
not be required to keep said deposit separate from its general accounts. If
Sublessee performs all of Sublessee's obligations hereunder, said deposit, or
so much thereof as has not theretofore been applied by Sublessor, shall be
returned, without payment of interest or other increment for its use to
Sublessee (or at Sublessor's option, to the last assignee, if any, of
Sublessee's interest hereunder) at the expiration of the term hereof, and
after Sublessee has vacated the Premises. No trust relationship is created
herein between Sublessor and Sublessee with respect to said Security Deposit.
Please refer to Paragraph 12c -- Treatment of Prior Security Deposit.

6. USE.

     6.1 Use. The Premises shall be used and occupied only for Warehousing
and distribution of silk flowers, office uses, and all legal uses related
thereto.

     6.2 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.

          (a) Sublessee agrees that it accepts the Premises in its "as is"
condition without any representation by Sublessor or Master Lessor regarding
its condition.

          (b) Except as provided in paragraph 6.2(a), Sublessee shall, at
Sublessee's expense, comply promptly with all applicable statutes,
ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, restrictions of record, and
requirements in effect during the term or any part of the term hereof
regulating the use by Sublessee of the Premises. Sublessee shall not use or
permit the use of the Premises in any manner that will tend to create waste
or a nuisance or, if there shall be more than one tenant of the building
containing the Premises, which shall tend to disturb such other tenants.

     6.3 CONDITION OF PREMISES. Except as provided in paragraph 6.2(a)
Sublessee hereby accepts the Premises in their condition existing as of the
date of the execution hereof, subject to all applicable zoning, municipal,
county and state laws, ordinances, and regulations governing and regulating
the use of the Premises, and accepts this Sublease subject thereto and to all
matters disclosed thereby and by any exhibits attached hereto. Sublessee
acknowledges that neither Sublessor nor Sublessor's agents have made any
representation or warranty as to the suitability of the Premises for the
conduct of Sublessee's business.

7. MASTER LEASE

     7.1 Sublessor is the lessee of the Premises by virtue of a lease,
hereinafter referred to as the "Master Lease", a copy of which is attached
hereto marked Exhibit 1, dated April 16, 1990 wherein Art Weiss, Inc., a
California Corporation, is the lessor, hereinafter referred to as the "Master
Lessor". This Master Lease has been modified by "Final Settlement Agreement
for Various Leases All Dated April 16, 1990," dated May 25, 2000.

     7.2 This Sublease is and shall be at all times subject and subordinate to
the Master Lease.

     7.3 The terms, conditions and respective obligations of Sublessor and
Sublessee to each other under this Sublease shall be the terms and conditions
of the Master Lease, except for those provisions of the Master Lease which
are directly contradicted by this Sublease in which event the terms of this
Sublease document shall control over the Master Lease. Therefore, for the
purposes of this Sublease, wherever in the Master Lease the word "Lessor" is
used it shall be deemed to mean the Sublessor herein and wherever in the
Master Lease the word "Lessee" is used it shall be deemed to mean the
Sublessee herein.

     7.4 During the term of this Sublease and for all periods subsequent for
obligations which have arisen prior to the termination of this Sublease,
Sublessee does hereby expressly assume and agree to perform and comply with,
for the benefit of Sublessor and Master Lessor, each and every obligation of
Sublessor under the Master Lease EXCEPT for the following paragraphs which
are excluded therefrom: Base Tax Year is 2000-2001.

     7.5  The obligations that Sublessee has assumed under paragraph 7.4
hereof are hereinafter referred to as the "Sublessee's Assumed Obligations".
The obligations that Sublessee has NOT assumed under paragraph 7.4 hereof are
hereinafter referred to as the "Sublessor's Remaining Obligations".

     7.6  Sublessee shall hold Sublessor free and harmless of and from all
liability, judgments, costs, damages, claims or demands, including reasonable
attorneys fees, arising out of Sublessee's failure to comply with or perform
Sublessee's Assumed Obligations.

     7.7  Sublessor agrees to maintain the Master Lease during the entire
term of this Sublease, subject, however, to any earlier termination of the
Master Lease without the fault of the Sublessor, and to comply with or
perform Sublessor's Remaining Obligations and to hold Sublessee free and
harmless of and from all liability, judgments, costs, damages, claims or
demands arising out of Sublessor's failure to comply with or perform
Sublessor's Remaining Obligations.

     7.8  Sublessor represents to Sublessee that the Master Lease is in full
force and effect and that no default exists on the part of any party to the
Master Lease.

8.   ASSIGNMENT OF SUBLEASE AND DEFAULT.

Sublessor's interest in this Sublease and all rentals and income arising
therefrom, subject however to terms of Paragraph 8.2 hereof.

     8.2  Master Lessor, by executing this document, agrees that until a
default shall occur in the performance of Sublessor's Obligations under the
Master Lease, that Sublessor may receive, collect and enjoy the rents
accruing under this Sublease. However, if Sublessor shall default in the
performance of its obligations to Master Lessor then Master Lessor may, at
its option, receive and collect, directly from Sublessee, all rent owing and
to be owed under this Sublease. Master Lessor shall not, by reason of this
assignment of the Sublease nor by reason of the collection of the rents from
the Sublessee, be deemed liable to Sublessee for any failure of the Sublessor
to perform and comply with Sublessor's Remaining Obligations.

     8.3  Sublessor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Sublessee, upon
receipt of any written notice from the Master Lessor stating that a default
exists in the performance of Sublessor's obligations under the Master Lease,
to pay to Master Lessor the rents due and to become due under the Sublease.
Sublessor agrees that Sublessee shall have the right to rely upon any such
statement and request from Master Lessor, and that Sublessee shall pay such
rents to Master Lessor without any obligation or right to inquire as to
whether such default exists and notwithstanding any notice from or claim from
Sublessor to the contrary and Sublessor shall have no right or claim against
Sublessee for any such rents so paid by Sublessee.

     8.4  No changes or modifications shall be made to this Sublease without
the consent of Master Lessor.

9.   CONSENT OF MASTER LESSOR.

     9.1  In the event that the Master Lease requires that Sublessor obtain
the consent of Master Lessor to any subletting by Sublessor then, this
Sublease shall not be effective unless, within 10 days of the date hereof,
Master Lessor signs this Sublease thereby giving its consent to this Subletting.

     9.2  In the event that the obligations of the Sublessor under the Master
Lease have been guaranteed by third parties then this Sublease, nor the
Master Lessor's consent, shall not be effective unless, within 10 days of the
date hereof, said guarantors sign this Sublease thereby giving guarantors
consent to this Sublease and the terms thereof.

     9.3  In the event that Master Lessor does give such consent then:

          (a)  Such consent will not release Sublessor of its obligations or
alter the primary liability of Sublessor to pay the rent and perform and
comply with all of the obligations of Sublessor to be performed under the
Master Lease.

          (b)  The acceptance of rent by Master Lessor from Sublessee or any
one else liable under the Master Lease shall not be deemed a waiver by Master
Lessor of any provisions of the Master Lease.

          (c)  The consent to this Sublease shall not constitute a consent to
any subsequent subletting or assignment.

          (d)  In the event of any default of Sublessor under the Master
Lease, Master Lessor may proceed directly against Sublessor, any guarantors
or any one else liable under the Master Lease or this Sublease without first
exhausting Master Lessor's remedies against any other person or entity liable
thereon to Master Lessor.

          (e)  Master Lessor may consent to subsequent sublettings and
assignments of the Master Lease, or this Sublease or any amendments or
modifications thereto without notifying Sublessor nor any one else liable
under the Master Lease and without obtaining their consent and such action
shall not relieve such persons from liability.

          (f)  In the event that Sublessor shall default in its obligations
under the Master Lease, then Master Lessor, at its option and without being
obligated to do so, may require Sublessee to attorn to Master Lessor in which
event Master Lessor shall undertake the obligations of Sublessor under this
Sublease from the time of the exercise of said option to termination of this
Sublease but Master Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid rents nor any
security deposit paid by Sublessee, nor shall Master Lessor be liable for
any other defaults of the Sublessor under the Sublease.

     9.4  The signatures of the Master Lessor and any Guarantors of Sublessor
at the end of this document shall constitute their consent to the terms of
this Sublease.

     9.5  Master Lessor acknowledges that, to the best of Master Lessor's
knowledge, no default presently exists under the Master Lease of obligations
to be performed by Sublessor and that the Master Lease is in full force and
effect.

     9.6  In the event that Sublessor defaults under its obligations to be
performed under the Master Lease by Sublessor, Master Lessor agrees to
deliver to Sublessee a copy of any such notice of default. Sublessee shall
have the right to cure any default of Sublessor described in any notice of
default within ten days after service of such notice of default on Sublessee.
If such default is cured by Sublessee then Sublessee then Sublessee shall
have the right of reimbursement and offset from and against Sublessor.

10.  BROKERS FEE.

     10.1  Upon execution hereof by all parties, Sublessor shall pay to N/A a
licensed real estate broker, (herein called "Broker"), a fee as set forth in

substantially similar thereto, either to extend the term of this Sublease, to
renew this Sublease, to purchase the Premises, or to lease or purchase

to be a third-party beneficiary of this paragraph 10.

                               SUBLEASE GUARANTY

     THIS GUARANTY is made as of September 14, 2000 by Angie Fu, a married
woman, and SHANG CHENG CHE, a married man (each a "Guarantor") in favor of
Lee Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a California corporation ("Sublandlord").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

     1.   For valuable consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged, and
to induce Sublandlord to enter into the Sublease with Maxsilk, Inc., a
California corporation ("Sublessee"), Guarantor hereby absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Sublandlord, and agrees fully
to pay, perform and discharge, as and when payment, performance and discharge
are due, all of the covenants, obligations and liabilities of Sublessee under
the Sublease and all amendments, modifications, renewals, extensions,
supplements, substitutions and replacements of the Sublease (the "Guaranteed
Obligations"). Each individual Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be jointly
and severally liable for the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of
Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable
and shall continue and remain in full force and effect until all of the
Guaranteed Obligations have been fully paid, performed and discharged.

     2.   The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be
affected, modified or impaired by the occurrence of any of the following
events, whether or not with notice to, or the consent of, Guarantor: (a) the
waiver, surrender, compromise, settlement, release or termination of any or
all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (b) the failure to give notice to
Guarantor of the occurrence of an event of default under the Guaranteed
Obligations; (c) the extension of the time for the payment, performance or
discharge of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (d) the amendment or
modification (whether material or otherwise) of the Sublease or the

voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition
of all or substantially all of the assets, marshalling of assets and
liabilities, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit
of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition with creditors or
adjustment of debts, or other similar proceedings affecting Sublessee or
Guarantor or any of the assets of either of them; (g) the release or
discharge by operation of law of Sublessee from the payment, performance or
discharge of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (h) the release or
discharge by operation of law of Guarantor from any or all of the obligations
of Guarantor under this Guaranty; or (i) the invalidity or unenforceability
of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor acknowledges that
Sublandlord would not enter into the Sublease without this Guaranty and the
Sublandlord is relying on this Guaranty.

     3.   The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of
the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor agrees that Sublandlord shall have the
right to proceed against Guarantor directly and independently of Sublessee. A
separate action may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether or
not an action is brought against Sublessee or

                                       -1-

Sublessee is joined in any such action. Guarantor authorizes Sublandlord and
Sublessee, without notice to, demand of, or consent from Guarantor and
without releasing or affecting Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty,
from time to time to amend, modify, renew, extend, supplement or replace the
Sublease or the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise change the terms of the
Sublease or the Guaranteed Obligations, to take and hold security for the
Guarateed Obligations, and to enforce, waive, surrender, impair, compromise
or release any such security or any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations or
any person or entity liable for any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Guarantor shall be and remain bound under this Guaranty notwithstanding any
such act or omission by Sublessee or Sublandlord. Guarantor waives all rights
to require Sublandlord to proceed against Sublessee, to proceed against or
exhaust any security held by Sublandlord, or to pursue any other remedy in
Sublandlord's power. Sublandlord shall have the right to exercise any right
or remedy it may have against Sublessee or any security held by Sublandlord.
Guarantor waives the right, if any, to the benefit of, or to direct the
application of, any security held by Sublandlord. Guarantor waives (a) any
defense arising out of any alteration of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any
defense arising out of the absence, impairment or loss of any right of
reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of Guarantor against
Sublessee or any security held by Sublandlord, and (c) any defense arising by
reason of any disability or other defense of Sublessee or by reason of the
cessation or reduction from any cause whatsoever of the liability of
Sublessee other than full payment, performance and discharge of the
Guaranteed Obligations. The cessation or reduction of the liability of
Sublessee for any reason other than full payment, performance and discharge
of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not release or affect in any way the
liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

     4.   If Sublessee becomes insolvent or is adjudicated bankrupt or files
a petition for reorganization, arrangement, composition or similar relief
under any present or future provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or if
such a petition is filed against Sublessee, or Sublessee makes a general
assignment for the benefit of creditors, and in any such proceeding any or
all of the Guaranteed Obligations are terminated or rejected or any or all of
the Guaranteed Obligations are modified or abrogated, Guarantor agrees that
Guarantor's liability hereunder shall not thereby be affected or modified and
such liability shall continue in full force and effect as if no such action
or preceeding had occurred. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or
be reinstated, as the case may be, if any payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations must be returned by Sublandlord upon the insolvency, bankruptcy
or reorganization of Sublessee, Guarantor, or otherwise, as though such
payment had not been made. No payment or performance by Guarantor shall give
Guarantor any right of subrogation to any rights or remedies of Sublandlord
against Sublessee. Guarantor waives all rights of subrogation to any rights
or remedies of Sublandlord against Sublessee and Guarantor waives all other
rights of subrogation or reimbursement with respect to Sublessee that might
otherwise arise from the performance of this Guaranty by Guarantor.

     5.   Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping
Guarantor informed of the financial condition of Sublessee and of all other
circumstances bearing upon the risk of failure to pay, perform or discharge
any of the Guaranteed Obligations which diligent inquiry would reveal, and
Guarantor agrees that Sublandlord has no duty to advise Guarantor of
information known to Sublandlord regarding such condition or any such
circumstance.

Guarantor acknowledges that repeated and successive demands may be made and
payments or performance made hereunder in response to such demands as and
when, from time to time, Sublessee defaults in the payment, performance or
discharge of the Guaranteed Obligations. Notwithstanding any such payments
and performance hereunder, this Guaranty shall remain in full force and
effect and shall apply to any and all subsequent defaults by Sublessee. It is
not necessary for Sublandlord to inquire into the capacity, authority or
powers of Sublessee or the partners, directors, officers, employees or agents
acting or purporting to act on behalf of Sublessee, and all of the Guaranteed
Obligations made or created in reliance upon the purported exercise of such
powers shall be guaranteed hereunder. Guarantor hereby subordinates all
indebtedness of Sublessee to Guarantor now or hereafter held by Guarantor to
all indebtedness of Sublessee to Sublandlord. If requested by Sublandlord,
Guarantor shall collect, enforce and receive all such indebtedness of
Sublessee to Guarantor as trustee for Sublandlord and Guarantor shall pay
such indebtedness to Sublandlord on account of the indebtedness of Sublessee
to Sublandlord, but without otherwise reducing or affecting in any manner the
liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

         6.     Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance,
notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor
and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty. Guarantor agrees to pay all costs
and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, which are incurred by
Sublandlord in the enforcement of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby expressly,
irrevocably, fully and forever releases, waives and relinquishes any and all
right to trial by jury and any and all right to receive punitive, exemplary
and consequential damages from Sublandlord (or any past, present or future
board member, trustee, director, officer, employee, agent, representative, or
advisor of Sublandlord) in any claim, demand, action, suit, proceeding or
cause of action in which Sublandlord and Guarantor are parties, which in any
way (directly or indirectly) arises out of, results from or related to any of
the Guaranteed Obligations or the enforcement of this Guaranty, in each case
whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether based on contract or
tort or any other legal basis. If any provision of this Guaranty is held to
be invalid  or unenforceable, the validity or enforceability of the other
provisions of this Guaranty shall not be affected. This Guaranty may not be
amended or modified in any respect except by a written agreement signed by
Guarantor and Sublandlord. As used in this Guaranty, the singular shall
include the plural. This Guaranty shall bind and inure to the benefit of
Guarantor and Sublandlord and their personal representatives, heirs,
successors and assigns. This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Project is located.

         7.     Each Guarantor agrees that nothing contained herein shall
prevent Sublessor from suing on the Sublease or from exercising any rights
available to it thereunder and that the exercise of any of the aforesaid
rights shall not constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby
expressly waives any and all benefits under California Civil Code Sections
2809, 2810, 2845, 2847, 2848, 2849, 2850, and the second sentence of
California Civil Code Section 2822(a)(but only until Sublessor has been paid
in full the obligations owed by Sublessee under the Lease). In addition, each
Guarantor agrees that Sublessor (not Sublessee) shall have the right to
designate the portion of Sublessee's obligations under the Sublease that is
satisfied by a partial payment by Sublessee.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Guarantor has executed this Guaranty as of
the date specified in the Sublease.
