     THIS LEASE, made and entered into this 5th day of April, 1995, by
and between PRATT LAND LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, a Colorado limited liability
company, hereinafter referred to as "Landlord," and EARTHWATCH, INC.,
hereinafter referred to as "Tenant,"

                                  WITNESSETH:

     In consideration of the covenants, terms, conditions, agreements, and
payments as hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as
follows:

     1.     PREMISES LEASED: DESCRIPTION. Landlord hereby leases unto Tenant the
following described premises containing approximately 22,475 square feet of
building floor space measured to the outside of the walls, including overhangs,
canopies and loading docks, and to approximately 1/2 the thickness of common
walls; commonly known as Suites A and B of 1900 Pike Road, in the City of
Longmont, County of Boulder, State of Colorado, a more detailed description of
which is Lot 1, Replat A, Lots 2, 3, and 10, and the west 95' of Lots 4 and 9,
Longs Peak Industrial Park, County of Boulder, State of Colorado, a diagram of
which is attached as Exhibit A (hereinafter referred to as the "premises"); the
leasing of which is made according to the terms of this Agreement; together with
all appurtenances thereto, and all fixtures attached thereto, in present
condition, and together with nonexclusive reasonable access across any other
land owned by Landlord as may be required for use of the premises by Tenant,
with such access to be on such roadways, sidewalks, and other common areas of
which the premises are a part, or of any such adjacent lands owned by Landlord,
as Landlord may from time to time designate.

     2.    PRESENT CONDITION OF PROPERTY. Tenant has examined, and accepts the
building, improvements, and any fixtures on the premises, in present condition,
subject to the construction of Tenant Improvements as detailed on the plans and
specifications labeled Exhibit "B," attached hereto and made a part hereof by
reference. No representation, statement, or warranty, express or implied, has
been made by or on behalf of Landlord as to the condition of the premises, or as
to the use that may be made of same. In no event shall Landlord be liable for
any reasonably apparent defect in the premises or for any limitation on the use
of the premises not within the Landlord's control.

     3.     TERM.

            3.1     Initial Term. The term of this lease shall commence at 12:00
noon on March 15, 1995 (the "Commencement Date"), and unless terminated as
herein provided for, shall end at 12:00 noon on the 1st day of March, 2000. The
Commencement Date as set forth in this Paragraph 3.1 shall be subject to those
adjustments of the Commencement Date, if any, set forth in Paragraph 3.3 which
relate to the performance of construction on the premises.

            3.2     Tenant Improvement Construction. The Commencement Date of
this lease shall be delayed until the substantial completion of the tenant
improvements described on Exhibit "B" attached hereto and delivery of possession
to Tenant, if such occurs after the Commencement Date, as follows: If for any
reason Landlord does not substantially complete such construction prior to the
Commencement Date, such failure will not affect the validity of this lease, but
in such case Tenant shall not be obligated to pay rent until such construction
is substantially completed and possession of the premises is delivered to
Tenant. Provided, however, if Landlord shall not have substantially completed
and delivered possession of the premises within sixty (60) days after the
Commencement Date, Tenant may, at Tenant's option, upon notice in writing to
Landlord delivered within ten (10) days after the end of the 60-day period,
cancel this lease. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for failure to
substantially complete construction prior to any date or dates. Tenant's only
remedy shall be cancellation of the lease.

     Should construction of the tenant improvements be completed to such an
extent as to permit the issuance of a partial certificate of occupancy by the
governing authority, Tenant may but shall not be
<PAGE>

required to occupy the portion of the premises so permitted prior to (or after)
the Commencement Date and shall pay rent for the occupied portion, prorated in
proportion to the number of square feet of building space occupied, beginning on
date of delivery of possession. Rent adjustments shall be similarly prorated. In
no event shall Tenant take possession prior to satisfaction of the requirements
for Tenant's insurance set forth below.

     3.3    Delivery of Possession. Except as above provided with respect to
construction of Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall be entitled to possession of
the premises at noon on the Commencement Date, as defined in Paragraph 3.1.
Tenant may, with approval by Landlord in its sole discretion, have access to the
premises during tenant improvement construction for the purpose of moving in
Tenant-owned furniture, fixtures, equipment and inventory. This access and the
items so moved in shall not in any way impede the construction of the tenant
improvements, nor shall Landlord, its agent, employees, sub-contractors, or any
other person on the premises whether invited or not invited, be liable for the
protection, care or security of Tenant owned items. This paragraph shall not be
construed so as to permit Tenant to occupy the premises prior to the
satisfaction of all requirements for Tenant's insurance set forth below.

     4.     RENT.   Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at the address of Landlord as
 herein set forth, the following as rental for the premises:

            4.1     Base Rental.

            The base rental for the full term hereof shall be ONE MILLION ONE
HUNDRED SEVENTY FOUR THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED EIGHTEEN AND 77/100THS U.S. Dollars
($1,174,318.77), payable in monthly installments (basic monthly rental for
months one through three of SIX THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED SIXTY-SEVEN AND 67/100THS
U.S. Dollars ($6,867.67), months four through six of THIRTEEN THOUSAND SEVEN
HUNDRED THIRTY-FOUR AND 42/100THS U.S. Dollars ($13,734.42) and months seven
through sixty of TWENTY THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED TWO AND 08/100THS U.S. DOLLARS
($20,602.08) in advance on the first day of each month during the term hereof.

            4.2     Escalation of Base Rental.

            4.2.1   On the first anniversary of the commencement date of this
lease, and annually thereafter, the base rental payable by Tenant shall be
increased to an amount determined by multiplying the basic monthly rental by a
fraction, the denominator of which shall be the most recent Consumer Price Index
figure, as hereinafter defined, published prior to the Commencement Date, and
the numerator of which shall be the most recent Consumer Price Index figure
published prior to the particular anniversary date; provided, however, that in
no event shall the rent for any month after such anniversary be less than the
rent for the month immediately preceding such anniversary. As used herein, the
term "Consumer Price Index" shall mean the Consumer Price Index, All Urban
Consumers, All Items, Denver, Colorado (1982-84 = 100), or the successor of that
Index, as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor.
Should Landlord lack sufficient data to make the proper determination on the
date of any adjustment, Tenant shall continue to pay the monthly rent payable
immediately prior to the adjustment date. As soon as Landlord obtains the
necessary data, Landlord shall determine the rent payable from and after such
adjustment date and shall notify Tenant of the adjustment in writing. Should the
monthly rent for the period following the adjustment date exceed the amount
previously paid by Tenant for that period, Tenant shall forthwith pay the
difference to Landlord. Should the Consumer Price Index as above described cease
to be published, a reasonably comparable successor index shall be selected by
Landlord. If Tenant objects to the successor index, the dispute will be resolved
and a successor index designated by arbitration pursuant to the rules and
procedures of the American Arbitration Association.

            4.2.2   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that the
increase in base rental for each year shall be not less than three percent (3%)
nor more than eight percent (8%) of the base rental for the previous year, each
year for such purposes to commence on the anniversary of the Commencement Date.

                                       2
<PAGE>

            4.2.3 Landlord may in its sole discretion, waive the escalation
provided for in Paragraph 4.2.1 or Paragraph 4.2.2 for any particular year,
years, or part of a year. No such waiver shall preclude Landlord from applying
the escalation to any subsequent year or part of a year, and from making the
subsequent application as if all subsequent escalations had been duly made to
the maximum permissible extent.

            4.3 Maintenance Expense for Grounds, Snow Removal, Exterior and
HVAC. Tenant shall pay its pro rata share based on the square footage occupied
of the cost of having Landlord maintain the HVAC systems and the exterior of the
premises including parking lots, green areas, sidewalks, entrances, and
corridors (but not the exterior surfaces of the building, other than glass).
Cost of maintaining such areas shall include, but shall not be limited to,
repairs, preventative maintenance, HVAC filters and compressors, sealing,
striping, lawn mowing, snow removal (Tenant is responsible for snow removal of
less than 2"), gardening, shrub care and replacements, lawn watering, parking
area maintenance, electricity for lighting, sign maintenance, depreciation of
equipment used for the foregoing purposes and other costs related to the
premises or common areas specifically excluding any capital expenditures
excepting HVAC. Landlord shall perform such maintenance and charge the cost
thereof to Tenant, which shall be paid as additional rent within 30 days after
delivery of Landlord's invoice. Landlord shall keep reasonable records of such
cost, which shall be available for Tenant's inspection during normal business
hours. Certain items of such maintenance (such as landscape maintenance and snow
removal) are performed by Landlord on numerous areas owned and/or maintained by
Landlord, in addition to the premises, and the cost thereof cannot be precisely
ascribed to the premises. As to such services which are performed on areas in
addition to the premises, the cost for all areas so serviced shall be allocated
to the premises in proportion to the square feet of building floor space in the
premises compared to the square feet of building floor space in the entire area
to which such services are provided.

     For the first year of the lease, Landlord agrees that the total of the
maintenance fees referred to in this paragraph will not exceed $0.95 per square
foot annually. Said expenses shall not increase more than an average annual rate
of eight percent during the term of the lease.

            4.4 Private Security Service. Landlord may, in its sole discretion,
engage a private security service, as an independent contractor, to patrol an
area which includes the premises. If Landlord does so employ a private security
service, the cost thereof shall be treated in the same manner as Maintenance
Expense and paid by Tenant as Additional Rent under the same provisions as are
applicable to Maintenance Expense.

     Landlord shall have absolutely no obligation to engage a private security
service and shall not be liable for any damages or loss which might have been
averted had a private security service been engaged. If Landlord does engage a
private security service, Landlord shall not be liable for any damages or loss
which may result from actions, inactions, non-performance or quality of
performance by the security service. If the Tenant desires a higher level of
security services than Landlord provides, or wishes to obtain an agreement that
there will be liability for actions, inactions, non-performance or quality of
performance by a security service, Tenant may itself engage such security
service as Tenant chooses, at Tenant's sole expense.

     Nothing herein shall limit any action by Tenant against any person or
entity providing private security service, provided that Landlord shall not be
party to, or liable for any judgment entered in such an action, as a defendant,
cross defendant, third-party defendant, or otherwise.

            4.5 Late Charges. Tenant will pay a late charge equal to five
percent of any monthly rental payment or other payment not paid when due, which
payment shall be in addition to any interest elsewhere provided for.

            4.6 Security Deposit. Landlord acknowledges receipt of the sum of
FORTY-ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED FOUR AND NO/100THS U.S. Dollars ($41,204.00) paid
by Tenant upon the execution hereof, to be retained by Landlord as security for
the performance of all of the terms and conditions of this lease Agreement to be
performed by Tenant, including payment of all rental due under the terms hereof.
Landlord shall not owe Tenant any interest on the deposit. At Landlord's
election,

                                       3
<PAGE>

deductions may be made by Landlord from the amount so retained for the
reasonable cost of repairs to the premises which should have been performed by
Tenant, for any rental payment or other sum delinquent under the terms hereof,
and for any sum used by Landlord in any manner to cure any default in the
performance of Tenant under the terms of this lease. In the event deductions are
so made during the rental term, upon notice by Landlord, Tenant shall redeposit
such amounts so expended so as to maintain the security deposit in a minimum
amount of one months base rent as herein provided for, within 10 days after
receipt of such written demand from Landlord. Nothing herein contained shall
limit the liability of Tenant as to any repairs or maintenance of the premises;
and nothing herein shall limit the obligation of Tenant promptly to pay all sums
otherwise due under this lease and to comply with all the terms and conditions
hereof. The security deposit, less any sums withheld by Landlord pursuant to the
terms hereof, shall be repaid to Tenant within sixty days after the date of
termination of the lease.

                    4.7     Proration of Rent for Partial Months. If the lease
term begins on other than the first day of a month, base rent and additional
rent from such date until the first day of the next succeeding calendar month
shall be prorated on the basis of the actual number of days in such calendar
month and shall be payable in advance. If the lease term terminates on other
than the last day of the calendar month, rent from the first day of such
calendar month until such termination date shall be prorated on the basis of the
actual number of days in such month, and shall be payable in advance.

     5. TAXES - REAL PROPERTY - PAID BY TENANT - PROTEST. Tenant shall pay as
additional rent, all real estate taxes and assessments, as shall, from and after
the date hereof, be assessed upon the premises and any appurtenances or
improvements thereto. Tenant shall pay one-twelfth (1/12) of such estimated
additional rent, in advance, with each monthly rental payment. Landlord shall
reasonably estimate such taxes and advise Tenant in writing of the amount to be
paid each month. Such payments shall be separately accounted for by Landlord,
(and may be deposited with any holder of a mortgage or deed of trust on the
premises) and shall be used to make prompt payment of such taxes as they come
due. If the estimated payments made by Tenant are not sufficient to fully pay
such taxes as they come due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any amount necessary
to make up the deficiency within thirty (30) days of notice from Landlord. If
the estimated payments made by the Tenant are in excess of the tax obligation,
Landlord shall credit the excess to the Tenant's account within thirty (30)
business days of learning the Tenant has overpaid the taxes. Landlord shall have
no obligation to pay any interest to Tenant on such additional rent, but
Landlord shall give Tenant an annual accounting showing credit for such payments
made by Tenant, and debits for payments made by Landlord or Landlord's lender.
If Tenant fails to make any required payment to Landlord, Landlord may, but
shall not be required to, pay any such tax and shall become entitled to
repayment from Tenant without demand, together with interest thereon as
elsewhere provided. The real estate taxes and assessments for the year in which
the term of this lease shall begin, as well as for the year in which the lease
shall end, shall be apportioned so that Tenant shall pay only the portions that
correspond with the portions of such years as are within such lease term. In the
event that the premises are assessed for tax purposes as a part of a larger
parcel, the tax on the entire parcel shall be prorated in proportion to the
number of square feet of building floor space on each portion of the entire
parcel.

     Upon written request from Tenant, Landlord shall protest the tax assessment
on the premises, to the extent that Landlord, in good faith, believes that such
protest is justifiable and likely to be successful. In the event of any such
protest Tenant shall nevertheless pay to Landlord the taxes as assessed, and
Tenant shall be entitled to the appropriate share of any refund. Tenant shall
not protest any real property tax assessment on the premises.

     6. TAXES - TENANT'S PERSONAL PROPERTY - PAID BY TENANT. Tenant shall be
responsible for and timely pay any and all personal property taxes assessed
against any furniture, fixtures, equipment and items of a similar nature
installed and/or located in or about the premises by Tenant.

     7. UTILITIES - TENANT TO OBTAIN AND PAY FOR. Landlord shall not be required
to furnish to Tenant any utility services of any kind, such as but not limited
to, water, hot water, heat, gas, electricity, light, telephone, cable TV and
power. Tenant shall obtain and pay all charges for gas, electricity, light,
heat, power, water (and lawn watering), and telephone, cable TV or other
communication services or other utilities used, rendered, or supplied, upon or
in connection with the premises. Tenant

                                       4
<PAGE>

irrevocably appoints Landlord as Tenant's attorney-in-fact solely for the
purpose of terminating Tenant's account with any provider of such utilities, if
the premises are abandoned by Tenant or if the lease is terminated.

     8.     HOLDING OVER. If, after expiration of the term of this lease, Tenant
shall remain in possession of the premises and continue to pay rent without a
written agreement as to such possession, then Tenant shall be deemed a month-to-
month Tenant and the rental rate during such holdover tenancy shall be
equivalent to one and one-half times the monthly rental paid for the last month
of tenancy under this lease. Such month-to-month tenancy may be terminated by
the Landlord at noon on any day which is more than twenty-nine (29) days after
date of delivery of Landlord's written notice of termination to Tenant.

     9.     MODIFICATIONS OR EXTENSIONS. No holding over by Tenant shall operate
to renew or extend this lease without the written consent of Landlord. No
modification of this lease shall be binding unless endorsed hereon or otherwise
written and signed by the respective parties.

     10.    ALTERATION - CHANGES AND ADDITIONS - RESPONSIBILITY - NO HOLES IN
ROOF - NO NEW EQUIPMENT ON ROOF. Subject to Landlord's consent that any
alterations requested by Tenant do not negatively affect the integrity of the
leased premises, in Landlord's sole discretion, Tenant may, during the term of
this lease, at Tenant's expense, erect inside partitions, add to existing
electric power service, add telephone outlets or other communication services,
add light fixtures, install additional heating and/or air conditioning or make
such other changes or alterations as Tenant may desire, provided that prior to
commencement of any such work, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a set of fully
detailed working drawings and specifications for the proposed alteration,
prepared by a licensed architect or engineer. If Tenant so requests, Landlord
will have the drawings and specifications prepared for Tenant, at Tenant's
expense, utilizing Landlord's in-house staff. Tenant will pay Landlord's
customary hourly charges for such services, as additional rent, to be paid
within 10 days after delivery of invoice. In particular, but not as a
limitation, the working drawings must fully detail changes to mechanical, wiring
and electrical, lighting, plumbing and HVAC systems to Landlord's satisfaction.
Landlord may refuse to consent to the alterations because of the inadequacy of
the drawings and specifications. Tenant may not commence the alterations until
Landlord's written consent has been given. Any additions or alterations
requested by Tenant of the telecommunication or data transmission equipment,
facilities, lines or outlets on the premises shall be performed only with
Landlord's consent, and only by Landlord or Landlord's contractor. Such
additions and alterations shall be at Tenant's expense. At the termination of
this lease, Tenant shall be responsible for all expenses necessary to return the
telecommunication and data transmission equipment, facilities, lines and outlets
on the premises to their condition before such additions or alterations were
made. If the drawings and specifications are adequate, to Landlord's sole
satisfaction, then Landlord will not unreasonably withhold its consent to the
alterations, except that Landlord may withhold its consent to new or altered
openings (holes) in the roof, or placement of additional equipment on the roof,
as follows. Landlord may withhold its consent to new openings in the roof of
placement of additional equipment on the roof unless Landlord, in its sole
discretion, is satisfied that the risk of increased leakage or risk of more
frequent repairs or maintenance of the roof is acceptable to Landlord. Any new
or altered opening in the roof, or placement of additional equipment thereon,
shall be considered an alteration which requires the prior written consent of
Landlord. If within thirty (30) days after such plans and specifications are
submitted by Tenant to Landlord for such approval, Landlord shall have not given
Tenant notice of disapproval, stating the reason for such disapproval, such
plans and specifications shall be considered approved by Landlord. As a
condition of approval for such alterations, Landlord shall have the right to
require Tenant to furnish adequate bond or other security acceptable to Landlord
for performance of and payment for the work to be performed. At the end of this
lease, all such fixtures, equipment, additions and/or alterations (except trade
fixtures installed by Tenant) shall be and remain the property of Landlord,
provided, however, Landlord shall have the option to require Tenant to remove
any or all such fixtures, equipment, additions, and/or alterations and restore
the premises to the condition existing immediately prior to such change and/or
installation, normal wear and tear excepted, all at Tenant's cost and expense.
All work done by Tenant shall conform to appropriate city, county and state
building codes and health standards and OSHA standards and Tenant shall be
responsible for obtaining and paying for building permits.

                                       5
<PAGE>

     If any such work done by Tenant causes damage to the structural portion,
exterior finish or roof of the premises, then the costs of repair of such
damage, and of all further maintenance and repairs to such structural portion,
exterior finish or roof during the term of the lease shall thereafter be the
responsibility of Tenant.

     Neither Landlord's right of entry, nor any actual inspection by Landlord,
nor Landlord's actual knowledge of any alteration accomplished or in progress
shall constitute a waiver of Landlord's rights concerning alterations by Tenant.

     11.    MECHANIC'S LIENS. Tenant shall pay all costs for construction done
by it or caused to be done by it on the premises as permitted by this lease.
Tenant shall keep the building, other improvements and land of which the
premises are a part free and clear of all mechanic's liens resulting from
construction by or for Tenant. Tenant shall have the right to contest the
correctness or validity of any such lien if, immediately on demand by Landlord,
Tenant deposits with Landlord and/or any appropriate court or title insurance
company a bond or sum of money sufficient to allow issuance of title insurance
against the lien and/or to comply with the statutory requirements for discharge
of the lien found in (S) 38-22-130 and (S) 131, Colorado Revised Statutes, or
any successor statutory provision. Landlord shall have the right to require
Tenant's contractor(s), subcontractors and materialmen to furnish to both Tenant

to payment. Landlord reserves the right to post notices on the premises that
Landlord is not responsible for payment of work performed and that Landlord's
interest is not subject to any lien.

     12.    UNIFORM SIGNS; NO "FOR RENT" SIGNS. It is Landlord's intent to
maintain uniformity of signs throughout the area where signs may be controlled
by Landlord. Tenant shall place no signs on the premises (except inside Tenant's
portion of the building on the premises) without prior written consent of
Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     Tenant may not put any signs on the premises indicating that the same are

DAMAGE TO CONTENTS. Landlord shall be responsible for the prompt maintenance and
repairs of the structural portions, the roof and the exterior finish of the
building (other than glass) on the premises at the sole cost and expense of

necessitated solely by the acts of Tenant or its employees, agents, contractors,
sub-contractors, licensees, invitees or guests, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord
for the reasonable cost of same, as additional rent, to be paid within 30 days
after delivery of invoice. All other maintenance, repairs and replacements shall
be performed by Tenant, at its own expense, including all necessary maintenance,
repairs and replacements to pipes, plumbing systems, electrical systems, window
or other glass, doors, fixtures, interior decorations, and all other appliances
and appurtenances. Such repairs and replacements, interior and exterior,
ordinary as well as extraordinary, shall be made promptly, as and when
necessary, so that the premises are maintained in first class condition. All
such maintenance, repairs and replacements shall be in quality and class at
least equal to the original work. On default of Tenant in making such
maintenance, repairs or replacements, Landlord may, but shall not be required
to, make such repairs and replacements for Tenant's account, and the expense
shall constitute and be collectable as additional rent, together with interest
thereon as hereinafter provided.

     Notwithstanding the Landlord's obligations elsewhere set forth in this
lease, under no circumstances shall Landlord be liable for damage to the
contents of the building or consequential damages to Tenant resulting from roof

negligence or Landlord's breach of this Lease. The term "contents" shall
include, but shall not be

excepted, and shall remove all of Tenant's property, so that Landlord can
repossess the premises not later than noon on the day upon which this lease or
any extension hereof ends, whether upon notice, holdover or otherwise. The
Landlord shall have the same rights to enforce this covenant by ejectment and
for damages or otherwise as for the breach of any other conditions or covenant
of this lease. Upon termination of the lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord
keys which operate all locks on the exterior or interior of the premises,
including, without limitation, keys to locks on cupboards and closets. Tenant

or others, and include same with the keys delivered to Landlord.

     15.    CARE OF GROUNDS; STORAGE OUTSIDE THE BUILDING; NO WASTE; NO
NUISANCE; COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS; FUTURE RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant shall use
the premises for office, research and development, and other uses appurtenant
thereto, and occupancy is limited to 99 employees. Except as otherwise provided
herein, Tenant will maintain the grounds which are part of the premises, keeping
them free from accumulation of trash or debris and will be responsible for snow
removal up to two inches of snow. Tenant shall conform to all present and future
laws and ordinances of any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the
premises, and will make no use in violation of same. No outside storage shall be
allowed unless first approved by Landlord in writing and then only in such areas
as are designated as storage areas by Landlord. Tenant shall not commit or
suffer any waste on the premises. Tenant shall not permit any nuisance to be
maintained on the premises nor permit any disorderly conduct, noise or other
activity having a tendency to annoy or to disturb occupants of any other part of
the property of which the premises are a part and/or of any adjoining property.

     As part of a common scheme for orderly development, use and protection, of
its various properties and those properties adjacent to the premises, Landlord
may impose upon Tenant reasonable rules and regulations concerning parking and
vehicle traffic; locations at which deliveries are to be made and access
thereto; trash disposal; use of common areas such as recreation areas,
corridors, and sidewalks; signs and directories; use of communication wires or

lease elsewhere set forth.

damage to the premises or the building or the sidewalks and pavements adjoining
the same which results from the movement of heavy articles or heavy vehicles or

     17.    NO USE OF PREMISES IN VIOLATION OF INSURANCE POLICIES. Tenant shall
make no use of the premises which would void or make voidable any insurance upon

            18.1    All Risk Insurance. Landlord shall keep the building and
improvements insured throughout the term of this lease against losses covered by
an "All Risk" policy, as defined in the insurance industry, which shall also
cover 1) loss of rental and 2) deposit of Hazardous Materials on the premises by
those acts of third parties which constitute vandalism. The deductible amount
shall not exceed $10,000. Landlord shall pay any premium on such policy and
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for one hundred percent (100%) of the insurance
premium paid by Landlord. Such insurance premiums owed by Tenant shall be
considered additional rent and shall be due within ten (10) days after Landlord
has

                                       7
<PAGE>

delivered an invoice for the same. Landlord may purchase a single policy
covering buildings and grounds in addition to the premises. In that event, the
premium shall be allocated among the various covered buildings and the premises
in proportion to the number of square feet of building floor space in each area.

            18.2    General Liability Insurance. Tenant agrees to carry
comprehensive general liability insurance in the minimum total amount of ONE
MILLION Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for each occurrence of bodily injury and ONE
MILLION Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for each occurrence of property damage. Tenant
shall supply to Landlord certificates of insurance as provided in Paragraph
18.6. In the event Tenant fails to secure such insurance or to give evidence to
Landlord of such insurance by depositing with Landlord certificates as provided
below, Landlord may purchase such insurance in Tenant's name and charge Tenant
the premiums therefor. Bills for the premiums therefor shall be deemed and paid
as additional rent due within 10 days after delivery of invoice. The Landlord
shall be an additional named insured on the policy.

            18.3    Tenant improvements. Tenant agrees to carry insurance
covering all of Tenant's leasehold improvements, alterations, additions or
improvements, trade fixtures, merchandise and personal property from time to
time in, on or upon the premises, in an amount not less than one hundred percent
(100%) of the full replacement cost of such items from time to time during the
term of this lease, providing protection against any peril included within an
"All-Risk" policy. Any policy proceeds shall be used for the repair or
replacement of the property damaged or destroyed unless this lease shall cease
and terminate due to destruction of the premises as provided below.

            18.4    Other Insurance. Tenant agrees to carry insurance against
such other hazards and in such amounts as the holder of any mortgage or deed of
trust to which the lease is subordinate may require from time to time.

            18.5    Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant grant to each
other on behalf of any insurer providing fire and extended insurance coverage to
either of them covering the premises, improvements thereon, and contents
thereof, a waiver of any right of subrogation or recovery of any payments of
loss under such insurance, such waiver to be effective so long as each is
empowered to grant such waiver under the terms of its insurance policy, and to
give all necessary notice of such waiver to its insurance carriers.

            18.6    Other Provisions Regarding Tenant's Insurance. All insurance
required of Tenant in this lease shall be effected under enforceable policies
issued by insurers of recognized good financial condition licensed to do
business in this State. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration date
of any such policy, a certificate evidencing a new or renewal policy shall be
delivered by Tenant to Landlord. Within fifteen (15) days after the premium on
any policy shall become due and payable, Landlord shall be furnished with
satisfactory evidence of its payment. To the extent obtainable, all policies
shall contain an agreement that notwithstanding any act or negligence of Tenant
which might otherwise result in forfeiture of such insurance, such policies
shall not be canceled except upon ten (10) days prior written notice to
Landlord, and that the coverage afforded thereby shall not be affected by the
performance of any work in or about the premises.

     If Tenant provides any insurance required of Tenant by this lease in the
form of a blanket policy, Tenant shall furnish satisfactory proof that such
blanket policy complies in all respects with the provisions of this lease, and
that the coverage thereunder is at least equal to the coverage which would be
provided under a separate policy covering only the premises.

            18.7    Changes In Standard Policies. If the definition of insurance
industry policy language relating to "All-Risk" insurance or other term changes,
the insurance requirements hereunder shall be modified to conform to the
existing insurance industry language; however, the dollar amount of the
coverages required under this lease shall not be less than those existing at the
time of the effective beginning date of this lease.

     19.  FIRE REGULATIONS - TENANT RESPONSIBILITY. It shall be Tenant's sole
 and exclusive responsibility to meet all fire regulations of any governmental
 unit having jurisdiction over the premises to the extent such regulations
 affect Tenant's operations, at Tenant's sole expense.

     20.  REPLACEMENT OF BUILDING - CASUALTY DAMAGE. If the premises are damaged
 or destroyed by fire or other cause at any time after the date of commencement
 of this lease, Landlord shall proceed with due diligence to repair or restore
 the same to the same condition as existed before such damage or destruction,
 and as soon as possible thereafter will give possession to the Tenant of the
 premises without diminution or change of location. Provided, however, that in
 case of total destruction of the premises by fire, or in case the premises are
 so badly damaged that, in the opinion of the Landlord, it is not feasible to
 repair or rebuild the same, then, Landlord shall have the right to terminate
 this lease instead of rebuilding the improvements; provided, however, that
 Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of Landlord's intention to terminate,
 said notice to be served not later than thirty (30) days after the occurrence
 of the damage to the property. In the event the premises are rendered
 temporarily untenantable because of fire or other casualty, base monthly rent
 shall abate on the untenantable area until the premises are restored to their
 former condition, abatement to be based on the square feet of building floor
 space in the untenantable area compared to the total square feet of building
 floor space on the premises.

            23.1.1  Tenant defaults in the due and punctual payment of any rent,
taxes, tax deposits, insurance premiums, maintenance fees or other sums required
to be paid by Tenant under this lease when and as the same shall become due and
payable and such default shall continue for five (5) days;

            23.1.2  Tenant abandons the premises;

            23.1.3  Tenant defaults in the performance of or compliance with any
of the covenants, agreements, terms and conditions contained in this lease other
than those referred to in the foregoing Paragraph 23.1.1, and such default shall
continue for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof from Landlord to
Tenant, and shall not be cured as permitted by Paragraph 23.9;

            23.1.4  Tenant files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or is
adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or takes the benefit of any relevant
legislation that may be in force for bankrupt or insolvent debtors or files any
petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition,
readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief for itself under any
present or future federal, state or

                                      13
<PAGE>

other statute, law or regulation, or proceedings are taken by Tenant under any
relevant Bankruptcy Act in force in any jurisdiction available to Tenant, or
Tenant seeks or consents to or acquiesces in the appointment of any trustee,
receiver or liquidator of Tenant or of all or any substantial part of its
properties or of the premises, or makes any general assignment for the benefit
of creditors;

            23.1.5  A petition is filed against Tenant seeking any
reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution
or similar relief under any present or future federal, state or other statute,
law or regulation, and shall remain undismissed for an aggregate of 120 days, or
if any trustee, receiver or liquidator of Tenant or of all or any substantial
part of its properties or of the premises is appointed without the consent or
acquiescence of Tenant and such appointment remains unvacated for an aggregate
of 20 days.

            23.2    Landlord's Remedies in the Event of Default. In the event of
any event of default, Landlord shall have the option, without further notice to
Tenant or further demand for performance exercise any one or more of the
following remedies (and any other remedy available at law or in equity):

                    23.2.1    If Tenant has been late in payment of rent or
other sums due on four or more occasions during any period of one year,
Landlord, without terminating this lease, may 1) require that all future
payments be made by bank cashier's check, and/or 2) require an additional
security deposit in the amount of the then-current base rent for two months,
and/or 3) require that rent for each month be paid on or before the 15th day of
the preceding month. Such requirement shall be imposed by Landlord's written
notice delivered to Tenant. The additional security deposit shall be paid within
10 days after delivery of the notice. The Landlord may or may not exercise the
remedies provided in this Paragraph 23.2.1, in its sole discretion. The exercise
of the remedies provided in this Paragraph 23.2.1 shall not be required prior to
the exercise of any other available remedy.

                    23.2.2    Without obligation to seek a new tenant, to
institute suit against Tenant to collect each installment of rent or other sum
as it becomes due or to enforce any other obligation under this lease even
though the premises be left vacant.

                    23.2.3    As a matter of right, to procure the appointment
of a receiver for the premises by any court of competent jurisdiction upon ex
parte application and without notice, notice being hereby expressly waived. All
rents, issues and profits, income and revenue from the premises shall be applied
by such receiver to the payment of the rent, together with any other obligations
of the Tenant under this lease.

                    23.2.4    To re-enter and take possession of the premises
and all personal property therein and to remove Tenant and Tenant's agents and
employees therefrom, and either:

                              1) terminate this lease and sue Tenant for damages
for breach of the obligations of Tenant to Landlord under this lease; or

                              2) without terminating this lease, relet, assign
or sublet the premises and personal property, as the agent and for the account
of Tenant in the name of Landlord or otherwise, upon the terms and conditions
Landlord deems fit with the new Tenant for such period (which may be greater or
less than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the
term of this lease) as Landlord may deem best and collect any rent due upon any
such reletting. In this event, the rents received on any such reletting shall be
applied first to the expenses of reletting and collecting, including, without
limitation, all repossession costs, reasonable attorneys' fees, and real estate
brokers' commissions, alteration costs and expenses of preparing said premises
for reletting, and thereafter toward payment of the rental and of any other
amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord. If the sum realized shall not be
sufficient to pay the rent and other charges due from Tenant, then within five
days after demand, Tenant will pay to Landlord any deficiency as it accrues.
Landlord may sue therefor as each deficiency shall arise if Tenant shall fail to
pay such deficiency within the time limited.

            23.3    Tenant to Surrender Peaceably. In the event Landlord elects
to re-enter or take possession of the premises, Tenant shall quit and peaceably
surrender the premises to Landlord, and

                                      14
<PAGE>

Landlord may enter upon and re-enter the premises and possess and repossess
itself thereof, by force, summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and may
dispossess and remove Tenant and may have, hold and enjoy the premises and the
right to receive all rental income of and from the same.

            23.4    No Termination by Re-Entry. No re-entry or taking of
possession by Landlord shall be construed as an election on Landlord's part to
terminate or accept surrender of this lease unless Landlord's written notice of
such intention is delivered to Tenant.

            23.5    Injunction. In the event of any breach by Tenant of any of
the agreements, terms, conditions or covenants contained in this lease,
Landlord, in addition to any and all other rights, shall be entitled to enjoin
such breach and shall have the right to invoke any right and remedy allowed at
law or in equity or by statute or otherwise for such breach as though re-entry,
summary proceedings, and other remedies were not provided for in this lease.

            23.6    Remedies Listed are Cumulative and Non-Exclusive. The
enumeration of the foregoing remedies does not exclude any other remedy, but all
remedies are cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, the
remedies provided in Paragraph 24 concerning Landlord's security interest in
Tenant's personalty and Landlord's right to remove same.

            23.7    Interest on Sums Past Due. In addition to the late charge
which is elsewhere established, all rent and all other amounts due from Tenant
hereunder shall bear interest at the rate of the national prime rate plus five
(5) percent per annum, provided that this shall in no way limit, lessen or
affect any claim for damages by Landlord for any breach or default by Tenant.

            23.8    Attorneys' Fees. Reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness
fees, consulting fees and other expenses incurred by either party by reason of
the breach by either party in complying with any of the agreements, terms,
conditions or covenants of this lease shall constitute additional sums to be
paid to the prevailing party on demand.

            23.9    Time to Cure Certain Non-Monetary Defaults. In the event of
any default other than failure to pay a sum of money, for which notice has been
given as provided herein, which because of its nature can be cured but not
within the period of grace heretofore allowed, then such default shall be deemed
remedied, if the correction thereof shall have been commenced within said grace
period or periods and shall, when commenced, be diligently prosecuted to
completion.

            23.10   Landlord Default If Landlord is in default under any of its
obligations and the default continues for thirty (30) days after written notice
from Tenant (subject to extension pursuant to 23.9), Tenant may pursue all
remedies at law or in equity. Tenant may, but shall not be required to, correct
such default for the Landlord's account , and the expense shall be promptly paid
within ten (10) days by Landlord; however, in no event shall Tenant have the
right to rental abatement, offset of expenses against rental, or the right to
terminate this lease, subject to Tenant's legal or equitable remedies.

     Tenant may not offset any sum due or assertedly due from Landlord to Tenant
against any sum due from Tenant to Landlord.

     Tenant agrees that if Tenant obtains a judgment against Landlord arising
out of Landlord's obligations under this lease, such judgment may be satisfied
only by execution and sale of Landlord's interest in the premises leased hereby
or applicable insurance proceeds. Tenant may not seek execution against other
property of Landlord, nor pursue any judgment, execution or other remedy against
the partners or other owners of Landlord or any of their property. Immediately
upon receipt of Landlord's written request, Tenant will release any property
(other than the premises leased hereby) from the lien of any judgment obtained
by Tenant against Landlord arising out of Landlord's obligations under this
lease.

     24.    LANDLORD'S SECURITY INTEREST IN TENANTS PERSONAL PROPERTY:
LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO REMOVE SAME. As security for its obligations under this
lease, Tenant grants

                                      15
<PAGE>

to Landlord a security interest in all the personal property and fixtures of
Tenant now or subsequently located upon the premises (the collateral). The
security interest shall attach to the collateral at such time (but not before)
when Tenant fails to pay to Landlord any fixed sum of money due to Landlord
pursuant to this lease and only after Landlord has given Tenant notice of the
default and the default has remained uncured for thirty (30) days. Concurrently
with signature hereof (or at such later time when Landlord may demand same),
Tenant will sign and deliver to landlord financing statements properly
evidencing the security interest in the personal property located in or about
the Premises, in customary short form suitable for filing with the. Secretary of
State of the State of Colorado and with the Boulder County Clerk and Recorder.
The financing statements shall not be filed prior to the date when the security
interest attaches to the collateral. In the event of default by Tenant, and
after attachment of the security interest to the collateral, Landlord may
exercise all rights and remedies available to the holders of security interests
under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Colorado.

     Landlord shall not be obligated to exercise any such remedy, however, and
at Landlord's sole election, Landlord may forego exercise of its rights under
the security agreement and proceed to remove, or have the appropriate
governmental agencies remove, all of Tenant's property from the premises and
leave same on any public street or landfill at Tenant's sole risk. The cost of
any such removal shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

     25.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AGAINST TENANT BY THIRD PARTIES: TENANT TO PAY
LANDLORD'S FEES. In the event of any proceeding at law or in equity wherein
Landlord, without being in default as to its covenants under the terms hereof,
shall be made a party to any litigation by reason of Tenant's interest in the
premises, or, in the event Landlord shall be required to commence any legal
proceedings relating to the premises and Tenant's occupancy thereof and
Tenant's relation thereto, Landlord shall be allowed and Tenant shall be liable
for and shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Landlord,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and consultant's fees.

     26.    INDEMNIFICATION BY TENANT AND BY LANDLORD. The Tenant shall
indemnify and save harmless Landlord of and from liability for damages or claims
against Landlord, including costs, attorneys' fees and expenses of Landlord in
defending against the same, on account of injuries to any person or property, if
the injuries are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its
agents, servants or employees, or of any other person entering upon the premises
under express or implied invitation of Tenant or if such injuries are the result
of the violation by Tenant, its agents, servants, or employees, of laws,
ordinances, other governmental regulations, or of the terms of this lease.

     The Landlord shall indemnify and save harmless Tenant of and from liability
for damages or claims against Tenant, including costs, attorneys' fees and
expenses of Tenant in defending against the same, on account of injuries to any
person or property, if the injuries are caused by the negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord, its agents, servants or employees, or of any other
person entering upon the premises under express or implied invitation of
Landlord or where such injuries are the result of the violation by Landlord, its
agents, servants or employees, of laws, ordinances, other governmental
regulations, or of the terms of this lease.

     Landlord provides recreation facilities for the use of employees of Tenant
and other occupants within the property developed by Landlord, which property
presently includes LONG'S PEAK INDUSTRIAL PARK, FIRST, SECOND and THIRD FILINGS,
and portions of ST. VRAIN CENTRE, both in the City of Longmont and County of
Boulder, Colorado, and will include such additional property in the immediate
vicinity thereof as may be developed by Landlord. The term "recreation
facilities" includes, at present, a fitness trail with 34 exercise stations,
volleyball courts, basketball courts, and a park, and will include such
additional facilities as Landlord may provide.

     Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Landlord of and from Liability for
damages or claims against Landlord, including costs, attorneys' fees and
expenses of Landlord in defending against the same, on account of any injury to
(or death of) an employee of Tenant arising out of use of the recreation
facilities.

                                      16
<PAGE>

     27.    ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not assign, mortgage, or
encumber this lease, nor sublet or permit the premises or any part thereof to be
used by others, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance.

     In connection with an assignment, sublease or encumbrance Landlord may
require the submittal of detailed financial information about the prospective
subtenant or assignee, to be reviewed by Landlord, and may require a guarantee
of the obligations of the prospective subtenant or assignee, and may require
detailed financial information about the guarantor, to be reviewed by Landlord;
and there may be alterations to this lease and alterations to the building which
are necessary to consummate the transaction. The Landlord may require Tenant or
the prospective assignee or sub-tenant to pay for the alterations to the
building, and may require that Landlord perform same. In addition, Landlord may
charge a fee of two percent of base rent for the first five years of the lease,
due in full upon Landlord's consent, as payment to Landlord for such
investigations, lease alterations and similar matters. No two percent fee will
be charged in connection with an assignment or sublease to an assignee or
subtenant who is "affiliated" with Tenant. "Affiliated" means under common
voting control, directly or indirectly.

     A sale or transfer of control of a majority of the votes which may be cast
to elect Tenant's board of directors or other governing body shall be deemed to
be an assignment of this lease, requiring Landlord's consent if the sale or
transfer is essentially accomplished in a single transaction.

     If this lease is assigned, or if the premises or any part thereof is
sublet, or occupied by anyone other than Tenant, Landlord may, after default by
Tenant, collect rent from the assignee, sub-tenant, or occupant and apply the
net amount collected against all rent herein reserved. No such assignment,
subletting, occupancy, or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant,
or the acceptance of the assignee, sub-tenant, or occupant as tenant, or a
release of Tenant from further performance by Tenant of the covenants in this
lease. The consent by Landlord to an assignment or subletting shall not be
construed to relieve Tenant (or any subsequent tenant) from obtaining the
consent in writing of Landlord to any further assignment or subletting.

     28.    LANDLORD'S WARRANTY OF TITLE: QUIET ENJOYMENT . Landlord covenants
it has good right to lease the premises in the manner described herein and that
Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold, occupy, and enjoy the premises
during the term of the lease; except as provided in Paragraph 31 concerning
subordination to mortgage lenders.

     29.    ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF PROPERTY - RIGHTS OF LANDLORD. Landlord
does reserve, during the term of this lease, the right to go upon and deal with
the premises or part thereof for the purpose of implementing a common
development plan for the project of which the premises are a part, and to
install non-exclusive sidewalks, paths, roadways and other street improvements
for use by vehicles, pedestrians, and for parking; to undertake such drainage
programs to handle underground and surface drainage water and to make any other
changes and/or improvements as Landlord shall deem advisable in the exercise of
its sole discretion; provided, however, any such action by Landlord shall not
unreasonably interfere with the rights of Tenant hereunder.

     30.    GOVERNMENTAL ACQUISITION OF THE PREMISES. The parties agree that
Landlord shall have sole and exclusive authority to negotiate and settle all
matters pertaining to the acquisition of all or part of the premises by a
governmental agency by eminent domain or threat thereof (condemnation), and to
convey all or any part of the premises under threat of condemnation, and the
lease shall terminate as to any area so conveyed. It is agreed that any
compensation for land and/or buildings to be taken whether resulting from
negotiation and agreement or condemnation Proceedings, shall be the exclusive
property of Landlord, and that there shall be no sharing whatsoever between
Landlord and Tenant of any such sum. Such taking of property shall not be
considered as a breach of this lease by Landlord, nor give rise to any claims in
Tenant for damages or compensation from Landlord. Tenant may separately claim
and recover from the condemning authority the value of any personal property
owned by Tenant which is taken, and any relocation expenses owed to Tenant by
the condemning authority. If the taken portion of the premises consists only of
areas where no building is constructed, and the land area of the premises is
reduced by less than ten percent, and the parking area available for use by
Tenant is reduced by less than five percent, and there is no material change in
Tenant's access to the premises,

                                       17
<PAGE>

then there shall be no change in the terms of the lease. If no building area is
taken but the foregoing limits on parking area reductions are exceeded, then
Tenant may terminate the lease unless Landlord provides sufficient reasonably
adjacent parking area so that the total available parking area is reduced by
less than five percent. It any portion of the building on the premises is taken,
then Landlord, at its election, may replace the square footage taken with space
in the same building, or may provide land and building area essentially the same
as the premises in a reasonably adjacent location, within 10 days after the
conveyance or taking, under the same terms and conditions as contained in this
lease, and this lease shall be in full force and effect as to the new premises.
If Landlord does not so provide reasonable space, then Tenant shall have two
options. First, Tenant may terminate the lease by written notice delivered to
Landlord within 60 days after the conveyance or taking. Second, Tenant may
retain the remaining portion of the premises, under all the terms and conditions
hereof, but the base rental shall be reduced in proportion to the number of
square feet of building floor space taken compared to the number of square feet
of building floor space on the premises prior to the taking.

     31.    SUBORDINATION OF THE LEASEHOLD TO MORTGAGES. This lease shall be
subject and subordinate in priority at all times to the lien of any existing
and/or hereafter executed mortgages and trust deeds encumbering the premises.
Although no instrument or act on the part of Tenant shall be necessary to
effectuate such subordination, Tenant will execute and deliver such reasonable
instruments subordinating this lease to the lien of any such mortgages or trust
deeds as may be desired by the mortgagee or holder of such trust deeds. Tenant
hereby appoints Landlord as his attorney in fact, irrevocably, to execute and
deliver any such instrument for Tenant. Tenant further agrees at any time and
from time to time upon not less than ten (10) days prior written request by
Landlord, to execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord an estoppel affidavit
in form acceptable to Landlord and the holder of any existing or contemplated
mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the premises. Tenant's failure to deliver
such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon Tenant (1) that this
lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be
represented by Landlord; (2) that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's
performance; and (3) that not more than one (1) month's rent has been paid in
advance. Further, upon request, Tenant shall supply to Landlord a corporate
resolution certifying that the party signing this statement on behalf of Tenant
is properly authorized to do so, if Tenant is a corporation. Tenant agrees to
provide Landlord within ten business days of Landlord's request, Tenant's most
recently completed financial statements and such other financial information as
reasonably requested by Landlord in order to verify Tenants financial condition
to satisfy requirements of Landlord's existing or contemplated lender or
mortgagee.

     Tenant agrees with lender and Landlord that if there is a foreclosure of
any such mortgage or deed of trust and pursuant to such foreclosure, the Public
Trustee or other appropriate officer executes and delivers a deed conveying the
premises to the lender or its designee, or in the event Landlord conveys the
premises to the lender or its designee in lieu of foreclosure upon receipt of
written notice from Landlord, Tenant will attorn to such grantee of the
premises, rather than to Landlord, to perform all of Tenant's obligations under
the lease, and Tenant shall have no right to terminate the lease by reason of
the foreclosure or deed given in lieu thereof.

     Landlord will use its best efforts to include in the terms of any mortgage
or deed of trust on the premises a provision that if Tenant is not in default
under the terms of this lease and Tenant is then in possession of the premises,
Tenant's rights of quiet enjoyment arising out of the lease shall not be
affected or disturbed by lender in the event of a default by Landlord and any
sale of the premises through foreclosure of any deed of trust or otherwise.

     32.    MEMORANDUM OF LEASE - RECORDING. This lease shall not be recorded in
the office of the County Clerk and Recorder of Boulder County, except by
Landlord as a financing statement. In order to effect public recordation, the
parties hereto may, at the time this lease is executed, agree to execute a
Memorandum of lease incorporating therein by reference the terms of this lease,
but deleting therefrom any expressed statement or mention of the amount of rent
herein reserved, which instrument may be recorded by either party in the office
of the Clerk and Recorder of Boulder County.

                                       18
<PAGE>

     33.    NO WAIVER OF BREACH; ACCEPTANCE OF PARTIAL PAYMENTS OF RENT. No
assent, or waiver expressed or implied, or failure to enforce, as to any breach
of any one or more of the covenants or agreements herein shall be deemed or
taken to be a waiver of any succeeding or additional breach.

     Payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of an amount less than the rent or
other payment provided for herein shall not be deemed to be other than a payment
on account of the earliest rent then due, nor shall any endorsement or statement
on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment of rent be deemed
an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or other payment
without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of all rent then
due, and/or to pursue any or all other remedies provided for in this lease, in
law, and/or in equity including, but not limited to, eviction of Tenant.
Specifically, but not as a limitation, acceptance of a partial payment of rent
shall not be a wavier of any default by Tenant.

     34.    CONTROLLING LAW. The lease, and all terms hereunder shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, exclusive of its conflicts of
laws rules.

     35.    INUREMENTS. The covenants and agreements herein contained shall bind
and inure to the benefit of Landlord and Tenant and their respective successors.
This lease shall be signed by the parties in duplicate, each of which shall be a
complete and effective original lease.

     36.    TIME. Time is of the essence in this lease in each and all of its

     39.    ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS.

                    39.1     FLEXIBILITY CLAUSE. In the event Tenant's
requirement for space increases or decreases during the term of this lease,
including any extended term thereof, Tenant may notify Landlord of its adjusted
space requirement, in which event Landlord shall, within 120 days after such
notice, increase or decrease the square footage available to Tenant so as to
reasonably meet the Tenants new needs (as is reasonably devisable by Landlord),
either using the premises or other comparable space

                                       19
<PAGE>

of Landlord reasonably acceptable by Tenant. Tenant may not decrease space in
existing premises leased from the Landlord and lease space in Boulder County
owned by a third party, unless the Landlord cannot accommodate the Tenant's
overall space requirements. In such event, Landlord and Tenant shall amend this
lease accordingly, or enter into a new lease upon rental rates and other terms
which are similar to those of this Lease and reasonably acceptable to both
parties and terminate this lease. Tenant may exercise the right described in
this paragraph multiple times, but not more than once in any twelve month
period. Not withstanding language to the contrary that might be found elsewhere
in this lease, the Tenant will be allowed to exercise the right described in
this paragraph without incurring of cost or other penalties sometimes associated
with early terminations, Tenant will be expected to return the premises to
Landlord pursuant to the terms and conditions of Paragraph 14 of this Lease
Agreement.

            39.2    EXPANSION. Tenant shall have the option to expand into the
expansion area One, as detailed on attached Exhibit A, of approximately 3,965
square feet. At the time the Tenant physically occupies expansion area One, the
Tenant shall agree to pay additional Base Rent on expansion area One at the
lease rate then in effect and the Operating Expenses applicable thereto.
Subsequent or concurrent to exercising the expansion option on expansion area
one, the Tenant shall have the right to occupy expansion area Two containing
approximately 3,600 square feet as shown on Exhibit A. At the time the Tenant
physically occupies expansion area Two, the Tenant shall agree to pay additional
Base Rent on expansion area Two at the lease rate then in effect and the
Operating Expenses applicable thereto.

            39.3    TERMINATION RIGHT. If in the event, the Tenant ceases
business operations, the Tenant shall have the right to terminate the Lease by
providing the Landlord sixty (60) days written notice and meeting all the lease
terms and obligations up to the date of termination.

            39.4    ADDITIONAL DAMAGES. Tenant shall not be responsible for any
of Landlord's damages which could not have been forseen by someone experienced
and knowledgeable in the construction, leasing and sale of commercial real
estate at the time of the breach.

     This Addendum is made this 30 day of August, 1999, by and between Pratt
Land Limited Liability Company, (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord") and
EarthWatch, Incorporated (hereinafter referred to as "Tenant").

     WHEREAS, the parties hereto entered into that certain Lease Agreement
(hereinafter referred to as "Lease") dated the 5th day of April, 1995, for
property commonly known as: Suites A & B of 1900 Pike Road, in the City of
Longmont, County of Boulder, State of Colorado.

     WHEREAS, the parties amended said Lease by Addendum to Lease Agreement
dated the 29th day of February, 1996, to allow for Tenant's occupancy of the
Expansion Premises (7,565 square feet), bringing the total space leased to
30,040 square feet.

     WHEREAS, the parties amended said Lease by Addendum to Lease Agreement
dated the 12th day of June, 1996, to allow for Tenant's occupancy of Suite D
(15,374 square feet), bringing the total space leased to 45,414 square feet.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of good and valuable consideration,
including the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree
to further amend the above-described Lease as follows:

     1. Premises Leased. Effective as of the 1st day of November, 1999, Landlord
will lease to Tenant and Tenant will lease from Landlord, the Additional
Premises as shown on the attached Exhibit A, being a portion of the adjacent
Suite E totaling 9,860 square feet. The total space leased by Tenant from
Landlord shall then be 55,274 square feet. All terms and conditions of the Lease
and other Addenda shall apply to the Additional Premises.

     3.1  Term. The Term of the Lease shall be extended to the 28th day of
February, 2005.

     3.4  Option to Extend. Provided Tenant is not in default of this Lease
Agreement, Tenant shall be given the option to renew this Lease for one (1)
additional term of five (5) years. Such option shall be exercisable only by
delivery of Tenant's written notice of extension to Landlord not less than 180
days prior to the expiration of the then-existing Lease term. In the event of
such exercise, this Lease shall be deemed to be extended for the additional
period pursuant to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, except that
the Base Rent shall be adjusted by mutual agreement to current market
conditions. In the event of exercise of said Option, any funds held by Landlord
pursuant hereto shall continue to be so held subject to the terms and conditions
relating to same.
<PAGE>

     3.5  First Right of Refusal. Provided Tenant is not in default of this
Lease Agreement, Tenant shall have a continuing first right of refusal to lease
additional space in the building, at the then-current rates, terms and
conditions of this Lease. The then-current rate shall be interpreted to mean the
same Base Rental rate per square foot that Tenant is paying on the Premises at
the time the right of refusal is exercised, which shall be subject to future
escalations on the 15th of March of each year, but specifically shall not
include the amount being paid as Additional Rent for Amortization of Tenant
Improvements. However, should Tenant desire tenant improvements in the
additional space being the subject of the right of refusal referenced herein,
Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith a monthly amount, to be paid
as additional rent, to amortize any tenant improvements which Landlord agrees to
pay for. Tenant shall continue to have the option of performing tenant
improvements, at its own sole expense, subject to the submittal and approval
process set forth in Paragraph 10 of the Lease.

     During the Term of this Lease or any extension as provided in Paragraph 3.4
herein, should another space in the building be vacated by the current or future
tenant, then Landlord shall give Tenant written notice thereof. If Tenant
desires to exercise their right of refusal and lease the space being offered,
then Tenant shall deliver written notice of same to Landlord within 15 days
after delivery of Landlord's notice, and shall sign a lease amendment within 10
additional days.

      4.1. Adjustment of Base Rent.

          a.) Effective as of the 1st day of November, 1999, the monthly Base
Rental shall be increased by the sum of Eight Thousand Six Hundred Twenty Seven
and 50/100ths Dollars ($8,627.50), which equals $10.50 per square foot on the
Additional Premises of 9,860 square feet. The total monthly Base Rental will be
Fifty Two Thousand Eight Hundred Thirty and 46/100ths Dollars ($52,830.46) for
the period from 11/1/99 to 3/15/00.

          b.) Effective as of the 1st day of November, 1999, Tenant shall pay
Additional Rent for Amortization of Tenant Improvements in the monthly amount of
One Thousand Five Hundred Sixty One and 17/100 Dollars ($1,561.17), which equals
$1.90 per square foot on the Additional Premises of 9,860 square feet.

          c.) Effective as of the 15th day of March, 2000, the monthly Base
Rental shall be changed to the sum of Forty Eight Thousand Three Hundred Sixty
Four and 75/100ths Dollars ($48,364.75), which equals $10.50 per square foot on
the total Premises of 55,274 square feet. The Base Rental shall continue to be
subject to future escalations, per Section 4.2 of the Lease, beginning on the
15th day of March, 2001.

          d.) Effective as of the 15th day of March, 2000, the Additional Rent
for Amortization of Tenant Improvements shall be changed to the sum of Eight

     Maintenance, Taxes, Utilities & Insurance Expense. Tenant shall pay
additional rent on the Additional Premises for those items addressed in
Paragraphs 4.3, 5.0, 7.0 and 18.1 of the Lease.

     10. Alterations. Landlord herein grants to Tenant permission, subject to
the submittal and approval process set forth in the Lease, for Tenant to remove,
at Tenant's sole expense, interior low cubicle walls in the Premises. Landlord
agrees it will not look to Tenant to replace said low cubicle walls upon
termination of the Lease. If Tenant elects to remove said low cubicle walls, but
elects not to replace the carpet and base in the affected area, then Landlord
shall have the right to require Tenant to share, equally with Landlord, in the
cost of carpet and base replacement upon termination of the Lease.

     27. Assignment or Subletting. Delete the last three sentences of the second
paragraph, beginning "In addition, Landlord may charge a fee of two percent...",
and substitute the following:
"Should Tenant desire the services of a real estate broker to market the
Premises as available for sub-lease, Tenant shall employ Landlord. If Landlord
acting as broker shall produce a prospective sub-tenant who is willing and able
to lease the space on the terms advertised, then Tenant shall pay Landlord a
brokerage fee of three percent (3%) of the Base Rental value of the sub-lease,
in addition to any fee due a cooperating broker representing the sub-tenant. If
Tenant desires to utilize the services of another licensed real estate broker,
said broker shall co-op with Landlord and share Landlord's brokerage
commission."

     39.1  Flexibility Clause. This Section shall hereinafter be null and void.

     39.2  Expansion. This Section shall hereinafter be null and void.

     39.3  Termination Right. This Section shall hereinafter be null and void.

     39.5  Brokerage. Tenant represents and warrants that it has dealt only with
The Staubach Company (the "Broker") in the negotiation of this Lease. Landlord
shall make payment of the brokerage fee due to the Broker pursuant to and in
accordance with Landlord's separate agreement with the Broker. Tenant hereby
agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless of and from any and all loss,
costs, damages or expenses (including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees
and disbursements) by reason of any claim of or liability to any other broker or
person claiming through Tenant and arising out of or in connection with the
negotiation, execution and delivery of this Lease. Additionally, Tenant
acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have no obligation for payment of
any brokerage fee or similar compensation to any person with whom Tenant has
dealt or may in the future deal with respect to leasing of any additional or
expansion space in the Building or renewals or extensions of this Lease.

     39.6  Allowance for Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall perform the

                         ELIGIBILITY; OPTION PROVISIONS
                         ------------------------------

          5.1  Eligibility.  Except as herein provided, the persons who shall be
               -----------
eligible to participate in this Plan as of any Grant Date shall be those persons
(and only those persons) who are Eligible Employees of the Company on a Grant
Date.

          5.2  Grant of Options.  The Committee shall have authority to grant
               ----------------
Options under this Plan at any time or from time to time to all Eligible
Employees as of a Grant Date.  (To the extent an Option is granted to any
Eligible Employee of an entity on a relevant date, all Eligible Employees of the
entity shall be granted an Option to the extent required by law.)  An Option
shall entitle the Participant to receive shares of Common Stock at the
conclusion of the Option Period, subject to the Participant's satisfaction in
full of any conditions, restrictions or limitations imposed in accordance with
this Plan or an Agreement, including without limitation, payment of the Option
Price.  Each Option granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Agreement,
in a form approved by the Committee, which shall embody the terms and conditions
of such Option and which shall be subject to the express terms and conditions
set forth in this Plan and to such other terms and conditions as the Committee
may deem appropriate.  The grant and exercise of Options hereunder shall be
subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations
and to such approvals by any governmental or regulatory agencies as may be
required.  As of any Grant Date, each Eligible Employee shall be granted Options
with the same

                                       9
<PAGE>

rights and privileges as any other Eligible Employee on that Grant Date, except
the amount of the Common Stock which may be purchased by any Participant under
any Option may bear a uniform relationship to the total compensation, or the
basic or regular rate of compensation (as determined by the Committee) of all
Eligible Employees on that Grant Date, and the Option may establish a maximum
amount of Common Stock which may be purchased.

          5.3  Option Period.  Each Agreement shall specify the period for which
               -------------
the Option thereunder is granted, which shall be determined by the Committee.
In no event shall the Option Period exceed twenty-four (24) consecutive calendar
months or extend beyond the period permitted under Section 423(b)(7) of the
Code.

          5.4  Option Price.  Subject to the limits stated herein, the Option
               ------------
Price per share at which shares of Common Stock may be acquired upon exercise of
an Option shall be determined by the Committee.  Unless otherwise specified by
the Committee, with respect to any Exercise Date, the Option Price shall not be
less than the lesser of eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of a
share of Common Stock (averaged over such period as the Committee may determine
and as permitted by law) on the applicable Grant Date and eighty-five percent
(85%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock (averaged over such
period as the Committee may determine and as permitted by law) on the applicable
Exercise Date.  The Committee reserves the right to increase the Option Price by
the value of any accretion to the amounts credited to an Account if the
Participant is credited with such accretion, regardless of the method of
accounting for such accretion.

          5.5  Contribution Rate.  If an Eligible Employee elects to participate
               -----------------
in this Plan, the Participant shall file an Agreement with the Committee within
the time period designated by the Committee.  The Committee may provide that the
Agreement shall specify either a percentage of the Participant's compensation
(as defined by the Committee) or a dollar amount determined by the Participant
to be deducted each pay period, or the Committee may permit only a specified
percentage or a specified amount.  Alternatively, the Committee may allow the
Participant to contribute to the Plan by check to be drawn by the Participant at
least once during the relevant Option Period.  Such amount shall be credited to
the Account and shall be the Participant's Contribution Rate.  Unless the
Participant's contributions are made in the form of checks,  deductions shall
begin as of the first regularly scheduled payroll date on or after the later of
the Grant Date and the date specified by the Committee.  The Committee may
establish minimum and maximum percentages or amounts to be contributed and a
date by when such Agreement must be filed with the Committee.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event may more than $25,000 be deducted from the
Participant's compensation (as defined by the Committee) for each Option Period,
and the maximum number of shares which can be purchased by a Participant during
the Option Period shall not exceed such amount divided by eighty-five percent
(85%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the applicable
Grant Date (as determined under Section 5.4).  Such contributions will be held
in the general funds of the Company, and no interest shall accrue on any amounts
held under this Plan, unless expressly determined by the Committee.  If a
Participant's contributions are made to a Subsidiary, that corporation will
promptly remit the amount of the contributions to the Company.  A Participant's
Contribution

                                      10
<PAGE>

Rate, once established, shall remain in effect during the Option Period, unless
and until contributions are suspended or fully discontinued, in order to comply
with Section 401(k) of the Code or for such other reasons as the Committee in
its sole discretion may determine, or if the Participant shall request
suspension or discontinuance. If a Participant requests to suspend
contributions, the Participant may do so at such times and in such manner as the
Committee may permit, and previously contributed amounts shall be retained until
the earlier of the Exercise Date and the date the Participant totally
discontinues contributions and requests a distribution of the Participant's
Account. A Participant who has suspended contributions may recommence such
contributions at such time, if at all, as determined by the Committee. If a
Participant requests to totally discontinue contributions, the Participant may
do so by providing written notice to the Committee, and there shall be paid to
the Participant the value of the Participant's Account as soon as
administratively possible and the Participant shall not receive any shares as of
the Exercise Date.

          5.6  Purchase of Shares.  Subject to Sections 5.7, 5.8, 5.9, 5.10 and
               ------------------
5.11, on each Exercise Date a Participant who has previously executed an
Agreement with respect to a specific Grant Date and made one or more payments
described in Section 5.5 shall be deemed to have exercised the Option to the
extent of the value of the Participant's Account, subject to the $25,000 limit
set forth in Section 5.5 with respect to the Option being exercised and shall be
deemed to have purchased such number of full shares of Common Stock as equals
the value of the Account, subject to the limits of Sections 423(b)(3) and
423(b)(8) of the Code and the number of shares available hereunder as of the
Exercise Date and proportionately allocable to other Participants for that Grant
Date.  The number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased by the Participant
as of any Exercise Date shall be determined by dividing the Option Price per
share of the Common Stock into the Account value, and the value of the shares so
purchased shall be charged to the Account.  Any value remaining in the Account
shall be returned to the Participant and not applied to purchase Common Stock.
Certificates of Common Stock purchased hereunder may be held by the custodian as
provided in Section 4.6.  The Committee may amend this Plan or any Agreement or
provide in operation for Participants to dispose of shares of Common Stock
received upon the Exercise Date on or immediately thereafter (which time may
include any period during which the Option is held) to the extent such change
would not result in liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act.  If the
total number of shares to be purchased as of any Exercise Date by all
Participants exceeds the number of shares authorized under this Plan or made
available by the Committee as to any Exercise Date, a pro rata allocation of the
available shares will be made among all Participants making contributions to the
Plan, based on the amount of their respective contributions through the Exercise
Date.

          5.7  Cancellation of Options.  Except as otherwise provided in an
               -----------------------
Agreement, an Option shall cease to be exercisable, and shall be cancelled, on
or after the expiration of the Option Period.

          5.8  Terminated Employees.  Except as otherwise provided by the
               --------------------
Committee or in an Agreement, any Participant who incurs a Termination of
Employment for any reason, except death, Disability or Retirement, during the
Option Period shall cease to be a Participant, the

                                      11
<PAGE>

Option shall be null and void on the date of the Termination of Employment
without notice to the Participant, and the balance of the Account of the
Participant shall be distributed to the Participant as soon as administratively
possible.

          5.9   Deceased Employees.  If a Participant shall die during an Option
                ------------------
Period while an Eligible Employee, no further contributions by deduction from
regularly scheduled payments on behalf of the deceased Participant shall be
made, except that the Representative may make a single sum payment with respect
to the Option at any time on or before the next Exercise Date equal to the
amount the Participant would have contributed as determined by the Committee for
the payroll periods remaining to the next Exercise Date.  The Representative may
at any time prior to the next Exercise Date request a distribution of the
deceased Participant's Account.  If the Representative does not request a
distribution of the Account, the balance accumulated in the deceased
Participant's Account shall be used to purchase shares of the  Common Stock on
the previously mentioned Exercise Date.

          5.10  Disabled or Retired Employees.  If a Participant incurs a
                -----------------------------
Termination of Employment due to Disability, or if a Participant incurs a
Termination of Employment due to Retirement, during an Option Period, no further
contributions by deduction from regularly scheduled payments on behalf of the
disabled or retired Participant shall be made, except that the Participant may
make a single sum payment with respect to the Option at any time on or before
the next Exercise Date equal to the amount the Participant would have
contributed as determined by the Committee for the payroll periods remaining to
the next Exercise Date.  The disabled or retired Participant may at any time
prior to the next Exercise Date request a distribution of his or her Account.
If the disabled or retired Participant does not request a distribution of his or
her Account, the balance accumulated in the disabled or retired Participant's
Account shall be used to purchase shares of the Common Stock on the previously
mentioned Exercise Date.

          5.11  Limitations.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan,
                -----------
in no event may a Participant (i) purchase under this Plan during a calendar
year Common Stock having a fair market value (determined at Grant Date) of more
than $25,000 to the extent required by Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, or (ii)
receive any rights to purchase stock hereunder if he or she beneficially owns,
immediately after such receipt, five percent (5%) or more of the total voting
power or value of all classes of stock of the Company.

          5.12  Nonassignability.  No Option or Account shall be assigned,
                ----------------
transferred (except as herein provided), pledged, or hypothecated in any way
(whether by operation of law or otherwise), other than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order which would
be a qualified domestic relations order as defined in the Code or ERISA (if this
Plan were described in the relevant Sections) but only to the extent consistent
with Section 423 of the Code.  Except as provided herein, an Option is
exercisable during a Participant's lifetime only by the Participant or the
appointed guardian or legal representative of the Participant, and neither the
Option nor the Participant's Account shall be subject to execution, attachment
or similar process.  Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation
or other disposition contrary to the provisions hereof of, or the levy of any

                                      12
<PAGE>

attachment or similar process upon, an Option or an Account shall be null and
void and without effect.  The Company shall have the right to terminate an
Option or an Account in the event of any such assignment, transfer, pledge,
hypothecation or other disposition of the Option or the Account, or levy of
attachment or similar process upon the Option or the Account, by notice to that
effect to the person then entitled to exercise the Option; provided, however,
that termination of the Option hereunder shall not prejudice any rights or
remedies which the Company may have under an Agreement or otherwise.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                                   ----------

                   GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO THE PLAN
                   -----------------------------------------

          6.1  Termination of Plan.  To the extent required by law, this Plan
               -------------------
shall terminate on the last day of the ten (10) year period commencing with the
Effective Date or at such earlier time as the Board may determine, and no
Options shall be granted under this Plan after that termination date.  Any
Options outstanding under this Plan at the time of its termination shall remain
in effect until they shall have been exercised, expired or otherwise cancelled,
settled or terminated as provided herein or in an Agreement, and such
outstanding Options shall not be affected by such termination of this Plan.  The
provisions of this Plan in respect to the full and final authority of the
Committee under this Plan, other than the authority to grant Options, and in
respect of a Participant's  obligations respecting shares of  Common Stock
received pursuant to the exercise of an Option, shall continue notwithstanding
the termination of this Plan.

          6.2  Investment Representation.  In the event the issuance by the
               -------------------------
Company of  Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of any Option is not covered
by a then current registration statement under the Securities Act, the  Common
Stock so acquired shall be restricted against transfer to the extent required by
the Securities Act or regulations thereunder, and each Agreement shall contain a
requirement that, upon demand by the Company for such representation, the
individual exercising an Option shall state in writing, as a condition precedent
to each exercise of the Option, in whole or in part, that the  Common Stock
acquired by such exercise is acquired for investment purposes only and not for
resale or with a view to distribution.  The Committee may set forth in an
Agreement such other terms and conditions relating to the registration or
qualification of the  Common Stock under federal or state securities laws as it
desires.

                    corporate transaction or event involving the Company and
                    having an effect similar to any of the foregoing, then the
                    Committee may adjust or substitute, as the case may be, the
                    number of shares of Common Stock available for Options under
                    this Plan, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
                    outstanding Options, the exercise price per share of
                    outstanding Options, and any other characteristics or terms
                    of the Options as the Committee shall deem necessary or
                    appropriate to reflect equitably the effects of such event
                    to the Participants; provided, however, that any fractional
                    shares resulting from such adjustment shall be eliminated by
                    rounding to the next lower whole number of shares with
                    appropriate payment for such fractional shares as shall
                    reasonably be determined by the Committee.

               (b)  Change in Control.  If there is a Change in Control of the
                    -----------------
                    Company (as defined herein) or the Committee reasonably
                    anticipates a Change in Control is likely to occur, then (1)
                    the Committee may cause each Option to be immediately
                    exercisable; (2) the Committee may provide that any Option
                    exercisable on the date of any such Change in Control may be
                    purchased by the Company in an amount equal to the excess,
                    if any, of the aggregate Fair Market Value per share of
                    Common Stock subject to the Option (or portion thereof) over
                    the aggregate Option Price of the shares subject to the
                    Option (or portion thereof) which the Committee determines
                    to purchase; or (3) the Company may provide for any
                    combination of (1) and (2) above. For purposes of this
                    Section 6.3(b), the aggregate Fair Market Value per share of
                    Common Stock subject to the Option that the Committee
                    determines to purchase shall be determined by the Committee
                    by reference to the cash or fair market value, determined by
                    the Committee, of securities, property or other
                    consideration receivable pursuant to the Change in Control
                    described in this Section 6.3(b). The aggregate Option Price
                    of such shares of Common Stock shall be determined by
                    multiplying the number of such shares by the Option Price.
                    In the event of a Change in Control described in Section
                    6(c)(iii), and if the Option is unexercised and the
                    Committee does not exercise its discretion hereunder to
                    purchase the Option, then the Option shall be

                                      14
<PAGE>

                    regarded as the right to receive the securities, property,
                    cash or other consideration receivable by the stockholders
                    of the Company immediately prior to the Change in Control
                    described in Section 6(c)(iii). The provisions of this
                    Section 6.3(b) shall be construed consistently with the
                    terms or conditions of any regulation or ruling respecting
                    the status of Options under Section 423 of the Code and the
                    receipt of cash or other consideration coincident with the
                    cancellation of such Options, and in order to provide the
                    Participant the economic benefit of the Option without
                    incurring liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

          (c)      "Change in Control" shall mean the happening of any of the
                    -----------------
                    following events:

                    (i)  An acquisition by any individual, entity or group
                         (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of
                         the Exchange Act) (a "Person") of beneficial ownership
                         (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the
                         Exchange Act) of 25% or more of either (1) the then
                         outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the
                         "Outstanding Company Common Stock") or (2) the combined
                         voting power of the then outstanding voting securities
                         of the Company entitled to vote generally in the
                         election of directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting
                         Securities"); excluding, however, the following: (1)
                         any acquisition directly from the Company, other than
                         an acquisition by virtue of the exercise of a
                         conversion privilege unless the security being so
                         converted was itself acquired directly from the
                         Company, (2) any acquisition by the Company; (3) any
                         acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related
                         trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any
                         corporation controlled by the Company; (4) any
                         acquisition by Andrew J. Filipowski or any of his
                         Permitted Transferees (as defined in the Company's
                         Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated),
                         or (5) any acquisition by any Person pursuant to a
                         transaction which complies with clauses (1), (2) and
                         (3) of subsection (iii) of this Section 6.3(c); or

                    (ii) Within any period of 24 consecutive months, a change in
                         the composition of the Board such that the individuals
                         who, immediately prior to such period, constituted the
                         Board (such Board shall be hereinafter referred to as
                         the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to
                         constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided,
                         however, for purposes of this Section 6.3(c), that any
                         individual who becomes a member of the Board during
                         such period, whose election, or nomination for election
                         by the Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote
                         of at least a

                          majority of those individuals who are members of the
                          Board and who were also members of the Incumbent Board
                          (or deemed to be such pursuant to this proviso) shall
                          be considered as though such individual were a member
                          of the Incumbent Board; but, provided further, that
                          any such individual whose initial assumption of office
                          occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened
                          election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-
                          11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange
                          Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of
                          proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other
                          than the Board shall not be so considered as a member
                          of the Incumbent Board; or

                    (iii) The approval by the stockholders of the Company of a
                          reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale or
                          other disposition of all or substantially all of the
                          assets of the Company ("Corporate Transaction");
                          excluding, however, such a Corporate Transaction
                          pursuant to which (1) all or substantially all of the
                          individuals and entities who are the beneficial
                          owners, respectively, of the outstanding Company
                          Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities
                          immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction will
                          beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than
                          60% of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common
                          stock, and the combined voting power of the then
                          outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
                          generally in the election of directors, as the case
                          may be, of the corporation resulting from such
                          Corporate Transaction (including, without limitation,
                          a corporation which as a result of such transaction
                          owns the Company or all or substantially all of the
                          Company's assets, either directly or through one or
                          more subsidiaries) in substantially the same
                          proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to
                          such Corporate Transaction, of the outstanding Company
                          Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting
                          Securities, as the case may be, (2) no Person (other
                          than the Company; any employee benefit plan (or
                          related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company,
                          by any corporation controlled by the Company, or by
                          such corporation resulting from such Corporate
                          Transaction) will beneficially own, directly or
                          indirectly, more than 25% of, respectively, the
                          outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation
                          resulting from such Corporate Transaction or the
                          combined voting power of the outstanding voting
                          securities of such corporation entitled to vote
                          generally in the election of directors, except to the
                          extent that such ownership existed with respect to the
                          Company prior to the Corporate Transaction, and (3)
                          individuals who were members of the Board immediately
                          prior to the approval by the stockholders of

<PAGE>

                          the Corporation of such Corporate Transaction will
                          constitute at least a majority of the members of the
                          board of directors of the corporation resulting from
                          such Corporate Transaction; or

                    (iv)  The approval by the stockholders of the Company of a
                          complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company,
                          other than to a corporation pursuant to a transaction
                          which would comply with clauses (1), (2) and (3) of
                          subsection (iii) of this Section 6.3(c), assuming for
                          this purpose that such transaction were a Corporate
                          Transaction.

          6.4  Withholding.  Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, as a
               -----------
condition of delivery or transfer of shares of Common Stock, the Committee, in
its sole discretion, may require a Participant to pay to the Company, or the
Committee may at its election withhold from any wages, salary or stock to be
issued to the Participant pursuant to the exercise of an Option, or other
payment due to the Participant, an amount sufficient to satisfy all present or
estimated future federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related
thereto.  The Participant may satisfy any requirement under this Plan or an
Agreement with respect to the Company's federal, state or local tax withholding
obligation by requesting that the Committee withhold and not transfer or issue
to the Participant shares of Common Stock, with a Fair Market Value equal to
such withholding obligation, otherwise issuable or transferable to the
Participant pursuant to the exercise of that portion of the Option.  An
Agreement may provide for shares of Common Stock to be delivered or withheld
having a Fair Market Value in excess of the minimum amount required to be
withheld, but not in excess of the amount determined by applying the
Participant's maximum marginal tax rate.  Any right or election of the
Participant under this Section 6.4 shall be subject to the approval of the
Committee.  The amount of required withholding shall, at the election of the
Participant, be at a specified rate not less than the statutory minimum federal
and state withholding rate and not greater than the maximum federal, state and
local marginal tax rate applicable to the Participant and to the particular
Option exercise transaction.

          6.5  No Company Obligation.  Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
               ---------------------
which has adopted this Plan shall have any duty or obligation to affirmatively
disclose to a record or beneficial holder of an Option, and such holder shall
have no right to be advised of, any material information regarding the Company
or Subsidiary at any time prior to, upon or in connection with the exercise of
an Option.

          6.6  Committee Discretion.  The Committee may in its sole discretion
               --------------------
include in any Agreement an obligation that the Company purchase a Participant's
shares of  Common Stock received upon the exercise of an Option (including the
repurchase of any unexercised Options which have not expired), or may obligate a
Participant to sell shares of  Common Stock to the Company, upon such terms and
conditions as the Committee may determine and set forth in an Agreement.  The
provisions of this Article VI shall be construed by the Committee in its sole
discretion and shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as the
Committee may from time to time determine.

                                  -----------

                                 MISCELLANEOUS
                                 -------------

          7.1  Indemnification of the Board and Committee.  In addition to such
               ------------------------------------------
other rights of indemnification as they may have and to the extent permitted by
law, the Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Board, the
Committee, the members of the Committee, the officers of the Company, and any
agents or representatives selected by the Board or Committee (collectively
"indemnified parties") against the reasonable expenses, including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred by them in
connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or any threat
thereof, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them
may be a party by reason of any act or omission in connection with this Plan or
any Option granted thereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in
settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by legal counsel
selected by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any
action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall
be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that any such indemnified party
is liable for gross negligence or gross misconduct in the performance of his or
her duties; provided that, within sixty (60) days after institution of any such
action, suit or proceeding, an indemnified party may in writing elect to defend
the same at his or her sole expense, and if such election is made, the Company
shall have no further liability or obligations to the indemnified party under
this Section 7.1.  The provisions of this Section 7.1 shall in no way limit any
other obligation or arrangements the Company may have with regard to
indemnifying an indemnified party.

          7.2  Mitigation of Excise Tax.  If any payment or right accruing to a
               ------------------------
Participant under this Plan (without the application of this Section 7.2),
either alone or together with other payments or rights accruing to the
Participant from the Company ("Total Payments") would constitute a "parachute
payment" (as defined in Section 280G of the Code and regulations thereunder),
such payment or right shall be reduced to the largest amount or greatest right
that will result in no portion of the amount payable or right accruing under
this Plan being subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code or being
disallowed as a deduction under Section 280G of the Code; provided, however,
that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent provided otherwise in an Option
or in the event the Participant is party to an agreement with the Company or an
Affiliate that explicitly provides for an alternate treatment of payments or
rights that would constitute "parachute payments."  The determination of whether
any reduction in the rights or payments under this Plan is to apply shall be
made by the Committee in good faith after consultation with the Participant, and
such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Participant.  The
Participant shall cooperate in good faith with the Committee in making such
determination and providing the necessary information for this purpose.  The
foregoing provisions of this Section 7.2 shall apply with respect to any person
only if after reduction for any applicable federal excise tax imposed by Section
4999 of the Code and federal income tax imposed by the Code, the Total Payments
accruing to such person would be less than the amount

                                      18
<PAGE>

of the Total Payments as reduced, if applicable, under the foregoing provisions
of this Plan and after reduction for only federal income taxes.

          7.3  Interpretation.  Whenever necessary or appropriate in this Plan
               --------------
and where the context so requires, the singular term and the related pronouns
shall include the plural and the masculine and feminine gender.

          7.4  Governing Law.  This Plan and any Agreement shall be governed by
               -------------
the laws of the State of Delaware (other than its laws respecting choice of
law).

          7.5  Limitations on Liability.  No liability whatsoever shall attach
               ------------------------
to, or be incurred by, any past, present or future stockholders, officers or
directors, merely as such, of the Company under or by reason of any of the
terms, conditions or agreements contained in this Plan or any Agreement or
implied from either thereof, and any and all liabilities of, and any and all
rights and claims against the Company, or any stockholder, officer or director,
merely as such, whether arising at common law or in equity or created by statute
or constitution or otherwise, pertaining to this Plan or to any Agreement, are
hereby expressly waived and released by every Participant as a part of the
consideration for any benefits provided by the Company under this Plan.  A
person who shall claim a right or benefit under this Plan shall be entitled only
to claim against the Company for such benefit.

          7.6  Validity.  If any provision of this Plan shall for any reason be
               --------
held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall
not affect any other provision hereof, and this Plan shall be construed as if
such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted.

          7.7  Assignment.  This Plan shall inure to the benefit of, and be
               ----------
binding upon, the parties hereof and their respective successors and permitted
assigns.

          7.8  Captions.  The captions and headings to this Plan are for
               --------
convenience of reference only and in no way define, limit or describe the scope
or the intent of this Plan or any part hereof, nor in any way affect this Plan
or any part hereof.

          7.9  Amendments.  The Board of Directors may at any time amend, waive,
               ----------
discharge or terminate this Plan, even with prejudice to a Participant.  The
Board or the Committee may amend, waive, discharge, terminate, modify, extend,
replace or renew any outstanding Option Agreement, even with prejudice to a
Participant, provided such change does not cause this Plan to fail to be a plan
as described in Section 423 of the Code.

          7.10 Entire Agreement.  This Plan and each Agreement constitute the
               ----------------
entire agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, provided
that in the event of any inconsistency between this Plan and the Agreement, the
terms and conditions of this Plan shall control.

          7.11  Rights with Respect to Continuance of Employment.  Nothing
                ------------------------------------------------
contained herein or in any Agreement shall be deemed to alter any employment
relationship between the Company or a Subsidiary and a Participant.  Nothing
contained herein or in an Agreement shall be construed to constitute a contract
of employment between the Company or a Subsidiary and a Participant.  The
Company or, as applicable, the Subsidiary and the Participant each continue to
have the right to terminate the employment relationship at any time for any
reason.  The Company or Subsidiary shall have no obligation to retain the
Participant in its employ as a result of this Plan.  There shall be no inference
as to the length of employment hereby, and the Company or Subsidiary reserves
the same rights to terminate the Participant's employment as existed prior to
the individual becoming a Participant in this Plan.

          7.12  Options for Shares in Substitution for Stock Options Granted by
                ---------------------------------------------------------------
Other Corporations.  Options may be granted under this Plan from time to time in
------------------
substitution for stock options or stock appreciation rights held by employees,
directors or service providers of other corporations who are about to become
employees of the Company as the result of a merger or consolidation of the
employing corporation with the Company, or the acquisition by the Company of the
assets of the employing corporation, or the acquisition by the Company of the
stock of the employing corporation, as the result of which it becomes a
designated employer under this Plan.  The terms and conditions of the Options so
granted may vary from the terms and conditions set forth in this Plan at the
time of such grant as the majority of the members of the Committee may deem
appropriate to conform, in whole or in part, to the provisions of the options in
substitution for which they are granted.

          7.13  Procedure for Adoption.  Any Subsidiary of the Company may by
                ----------------------
resolution of such Subsidiary's board of directors, with the consent of the
Board of Directors and subject to such conditions as may be imposed by the Board
of Directors, adopt this Plan for the benefit of its employees as of the date
specified in the board resolution.  The Board shall have the power to make such
designation before or after this Plan is approved by stockholders.

          7.14  Procedure for Withdrawal.  Any Subsidiary which has adopted this
                ------------------------
Plan may, by resolution of the board of directors of such Subsidiary, with the
consent of the Board of Directors and subject to such conditions as may be
imposed by the Board of Directors, terminate its adoption of this Plan; provided
such termination of adoption does not cause this Plan to fail to be a plan
described in Section 423 of the Code.
