         5.       USES.

                  5.1 GENERAL USE. The Premises shall be used only for general
office purposes, research and development of software products, and any other
purpose consistent with applicable zoning and the operation of an office and
service business building ("Permitted Use") and for no other business or other
purpose without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be withheld in
Landlord's sole discretion. No act shall be done in or about the Premises that
is unlawful or that will increase the then existing rate of insurance on the
Building. Tenant shall not commit or allow to be committed any waste upon the
Premises, or any public or private nuisance or other act or thing in or about
the Premises that disturbs the quiet enjoyment of any other tenant in the
Building. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which
may be withheld in its sole discretion, use, operate or maintain any apparatus,
machinery, equipment or device in or about the Premises that will cause any
significant noise, increase electrical loads or usage, vibration or fumes or
disturb the quiet enjoyment of any other tenants in the Building. If any of
Tenant's office machines or operating should disturb the quiet enjoyment of any
other tenants in the Building, then Tenant shall cease operating such equipment
until it has provided adequate insulation or taken such other action as Landlord
shall require to eliminate the disturbance. Tenant shall comply with all laws
and regulations relating to its use or concerning Tenant's use or occupancy of
the Premises or related to the common areas of the Building as may be adopted by
Landlord from time to time and made available to Tenant.

                  5.2 NO HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Tenants shall not use, dispose of
or otherwise allow the release of any Hazardous materials in, on or under the
Premises, the Building, the Property, or any adjacent property, or in any
improvements thereto, thereon or therein. Tenant represents and warrants to
Landlord that Tenant's intended use of the Premises does not involve the use,
production, disposal or bringing on to the Premises, the Building or the
Property of any Hazardous Materials. As used herein, the term "Hazardous
Materials" includes any substance, waste or material defined or designated as
hazardous, toxic or dangerous (or any similar term) by any federal, state or
local statute, regulation, rule or ordinance now or hereafter in effect. Tenant
shall promptly comply with all statutes, regulations and ordinances, and with
all orders, decrees or judgments of governmental authorities or courts having
jurisdiction, relating to the use, collection, treatment, disposal, storage,
control, removal or cleanup of Hazardous Materials in, on or under the Premises,
the Building, the Property or any adjacent property, or incorporated in any
improvements thereto, thereon, therein, at Tenant's expense.

         After notice to Tenant and a reasonable opportunity for Tenant to
effect such compliance, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, enter upon
the Premises and take such actions and incur such costs and expenses to effect
such compliance as it deems advisable to protect its interest in the Premises.
However, Landlord shall not be obligated to give Tenant notice and an
opportunity to effect compliance if (i) such delay might result in material
adverse harm to Landlord, the Premises, the Building or the Property; (ii)
Tenant has already had actual knowledge of the situation and a reasonable
opportunity to effect compliance, or (iii) Landlord reasonably believes that an
emergency exists. Whether or not Tenant has actual knowledge of the release of
Hazardous Material on the Premises, the Building, the Property or any adjacent
property as the result of Tenant's use of the Premises, the Building or the
Property, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the full amount of all costs and
expenses incurred by Landlord relating to such Hazardous Materials or in
connection with such compliance activities. Tenant shall notify Landlord
immediately of any release of any Hazardous Materials on the Premises of which
Tenant is aware.

         Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord against any and
all losses, liabilities, suits, obligations, fines, damages, judgments,
penalties, claims, charges, cleanup costs, remedial actions, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys' and other professional fees and
disbursements) that may be imposed on, incurred or paid by, or asserted against
Landlord, the Premises, the Building, or the Property by reason of, or in
connection with (i) any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or other default
by Tenant under this Section 5.2, or (ii) the acts or omissions of Tenant, its
officers, contractors, subcontractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees,
guests, invitees or visitors, or any assignee or sublessee or other person for
whom Tenant would otherwise be liable, resulting in the release of any Hazardous
Materials. All of Tenant's obligations and liabilities under this Section 5.2
shall survive expiration or other termination of this Lease and shall be
separately enforceable by Landlord.

         Landlord certifies that to the best of their knowledge and belief the
Premises are free from Asbestos.

         6.       ADDITIONAL RENT.

                  6.1 TENANT PAYMENT. In addition to Basic rent, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord as Additional Rent, from and after the Commencement Date in the
manner described below, an amount equal to the Actual Expenses Allocable to the
Premises for all increases in Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes that
exceed the Base Year Amount.

                  6.2      DEFINITIONS.

                           6.2.1 "Operating Expenses" shall mean all expenses
paid or incurred by Landlord for maintaining, operating and repairing the
Building, the Property, any parking structure serving the Building and related
improvements adjacent to the Building that serve the tenants of the Building
including without limitation, signage, sidewalks, terraces, parking, loading or
delivery areas and landscaping and the personal property used in conjunction

the costs of refuse collection, water, sewer, electricity, gas and other
utilities, supplies, janitorial and cleaning services, window washing,
landscaping maintenance, services of independent contractors, compensation
(including employment taxes and fringe benefits) of all persons who perform
duties in connection with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Building

elects to carry, licenses, permits and inspection fees, management fees, real
property taxes (as defined below), legal and accounting expenses, amortization
of capital improvements constructed after completion of the Building Complex,
and any other expense or charge whether or not herein above described, which in
accordance with generally accepted accounting and property management practices
would be considered an expense of maintaining, operating or repairing the
Building Complex, but excluding:

                           6.2.1.1 Costs of any special services rendered or
equipment or materials provided or expenses attributable to individual tenants
(including Tenant) for which a special charge is made to that tenant;

                           6.2.1.2 Costs of electrical, heating, cooling and
combined utility services to the extent that such services are separately
metered to the Premises and paid directly by Tenant.

         Landlord may construct, and "Operating Expenses" shall include, any
additional capital improvements to the Building Complex common areas to enhance
the character, utility, or operating efficiency of the Building Complex, as
reasonably determined by Landlord, but the amount of the capital improvements
costs included in the Operating Expenses for any Lease Year shall be limited to
the annual amortized amount of the capital improvements determined by dividing
the capital improvement costs by the useful life of the capital improvements.

                           6.2.2 "Real Property Taxes" shall mean real and
personal property taxes, assessments (including local improvement or special
benefit districts), and all other governmental impositions and charges of every
kind and nature, including surcharges, now or hereafter imposed with respect to
the Building Complex, or any portion thereof, including, without limitation, all
tenant improvements, and all improvements, fixtures, and equipment to, on or in
the Building Complex, and/or the use, occupancy or possession thereof; taxes on
Property of Tenant (as defined in Section 7), which have not been paid by Tenant
directly to the taxing authority; and any taxes levied or assessed in addition
to, in lieu of, or as a substitute for, in whole or part, taxes now levied or
assessed or any other tax upon owning, leasing or rents receivable by Landlord
from the Building Complex, but excluding any federal, state or local income tax
or inheritance, gift, succession or franchise taxes imposed on Landlord.

                           6.2.3 "Lease Year" shall mean each 12-month period
commencing January 1 and ending December 31, or any portion thereof, during the
Lease Term.

                           6.2.4 "Actual Expenses" shall mean the actual
expenses paid or incurred by Landlord for Operating Expenses and Real Property
Taxes during any Lease Year.

                           6.2.5 "Actual Expenses Allocable to the Premises"
shall mean Actual Expenses multiplied by Tenant's Pro Rata Share.

                                       3
<PAGE>   7

                           6.2.6 "Estimated Expenses Allocable to the Premises"
shall mean Landlord's estimate of Actual Expenses Allocable to the Premises for
the following Lease Year to be given by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to Section
6.3.1 below.

                           6.2.7 "Base Year" as used in this Lease means, for
the Term, the calendar year 2000 and, for each Extended Term, the Lease Year in
which the Extended Term falls. Electrical and janitorial expenses included in
Operating costs for the base Year shall be adjusted by Landlord to fairly
reflect ninety-five percent (95%) occupied on January 1 of the Base Year.

         6.3 MANNER OF PAYMENT. Tenant's payment of Additional rent shall be
made as follows:

                           6.3.1 Prior to the commencement of each Lease Year,
Landlord shall furnish Tenant a written statement of the Estimated Expenses
allocable to the premises for such Lease Year, and a calculation of Additional
rent as follows: One-twelfth (1/12) of the amount, if any, by which Estimated
Expenses Allocable to the Premises exceeds the Base Amount, which excess amount
shall be additional Rent payable by Tenant for each month during such Lease
Year. If at any time or times during such Lease Year it reasonably appears to
Landlord that the Actual Expenses Allocable to the Premises shall vary from
Estimated Expenses Allocable to the Premises by more than five percent(5%) on an
annual basis, then Landlord by written notice to Tenant may revise the Estimated
Expenses Allocable to the Premises for such Lease Year and Additional Rent
payments by Tenant for such Lease Year shall thereafter be equal to one-twelfth
(1/12) of the amount by which such revised Estimated Expenses Allocable to the
Premises exceed the Base Amount.

                           6.3.2 Within ninety (90) days after the end of each
Lease Year, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall provide a
statement (the "Statement") to Tenant showing: (a) the amount of Actual Expenses
Allocable to the Premises during the prior Lease Year, with a listing of amounts
for Real Property Taxes and major categories of Operating Expenses; (b) any
amount paid by Tenant as Additional Rent during such prior Lease Year; and (c)
any revision to the Estimated Expenses Allocable to the Premises for the current
Lease Year.

                           6.3.3 If the Statement shows Tenant's payments were
less than the excess of Actual Expenses Allocable to the premises for the prior
Lease Year over the Base Amount, then Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord the
difference. If the Statement shows an increase in Estimated Expenses Allocable
to the Premises for the current Lease Year, then Tenant's Additional Rent
payments for the balance of the Lease Year shall be equal to one-twelfth (1/12)
of the amount by which such increased Estimated Expenses Allocable to the
Premises exceeds the Base Amount, and Tenant shall pay the difference between
the new and former estimates for the period from January 1 of the current Lease
Year through the month in which the Statement is sent. Tenant shall pay any such
difference within thirty (30) days after Landlord sends the Statement.

                           6.3.4 If the Statement shows that Tenant's payments
exceeded the amount by which Actual Expenses Allocable to the Premises exceeded
the Base Amount, then Tenant shall receive a credit in the amount of the
difference against payments of Rent next due. If the Lease Term shall have
expired and no further Rent shall be due, Tenant shall receive a refund in the
amount of such difference within (30) days after Landlord sends the Statement.

                           6.3.5 So long as Tenant's obligations hereunder are
not materially adversely affected thereby, Landlord reserves the right to
reasonably change, from time to time, the manner or timing of the foregoing
payments. In lieu of providing one (1) Statement covering Operating Expenses and
Real Property Taxes, Landlord may provide separate statements, at the same or
different times. No delay by Landlord in providing the Statement (or separate
statements) shall be deemed a default by Landlord or a waiver of Landlord's
right to require payment of Tenant's obligations for actual or estimated
Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes.

         6.4 PRORATION. If the Lease Term commences on a date other than January
1, or ends on a date other than December 31, Tenant's obligations to pay
estimated and actual amounts toward Additional Rent for such first or final
calendar year shall be prorated to reflect the portion of such year(s) included
in the Lease Term. Such Proration shall be made by multiplying (i) the Base
Amount (as stated on an annual basis) and (ii) the total Estimated or Actual
Expenses Allocable to the Premises for such calendar year(s) by a fraction the
numerator of which is the number of days of the Lease Term during such calendar
year and the denominator of which is 365.

         6.5 LANDLORD'S RECORDS. The determination of Additional Rent shall be
made by Landlord. Landlord or its agents shall keep records in reasonable detail
showing all expenditures made or items enumerated above, which records shall be
available for inspection at Landlord's offices by Tenant. All costs of such
inspection shall be borne solely by Tenant, and at the Landlord's premises
conducted during Landlord's normal business hours. Tenant is entitled to audit
Landlord's records one (1) time per year and only for the preceding Lease Year
as defined in Section 6.2.3 Inspection of Landlord's records must be conducted
within one hundred twenty (120) days of receiving the "Statement". Furthermore,
any audit cannot be performed using a contingency basis auditor and all
information reviewed is to be kept strictly confidential between Landlord and
Tenant.

         6.6 FURTHER ADJUSTMENT. In the event the average occupancy level of the
Building for any Lease Year was or is not ninety-five percent (95%) or more of
full occupancy, then Actual Expenses and Landlord's estimate thereof for such
Lease Year shall be proportionately adjusted by Landlord to reflect those costs
that would have occurred had the Building been ninety-five percent (95%)
occupied during such Lease Year.

         7. PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES. Tenant shall pay, prior to delinquency, all
Personal Property Taxes (as defined below) payable with respect to all Property
of Tenant (as defined below) located on the Premises or in the Building Complex
and promptly upon request of Landlord shall provide written proof of such
payment. As used herein, "Property of Tenant" shall mean and include, without
limitation, all personal property of Tenant including inventory, equipment,
floor, ceiling and wall coverings, furniture and trade fixtures kept or used on
or installed in the Premises and any Tenant Improvements and other improvements
to the Premises that are owned by and separately assessed to Tenant. "Personal
Property Taxes" shall include all property taxes assessed against the Property
of Tenant, whether assessed as real or personal property.

         8. TAXES ON RENT. The Rent provided for in this Lease is exclusive of
any sales or other tax or charge upon, based upon or measured by rents payable
to Landlord hereunder, or any tax or other charge based upon or measured by the
number of employees of Tenant, or any other tax that is not currently in effect.
If during the Lease Term any such tax or other charge becomes payable by
Landlord to any governmental authority, the Rent hereunder shall be deemed
increased by such amount upon thirty (30) days' written notice by Landlord to
Tenant. The foregoing does not apply to federal, state or local income, gross
receipts, inheritance, gift, succession or franchise taxes payable by Landlord.

         9. SERVICES BY LANDLORD. Landlord will provide those services to the
Premises and the Building that are customary to similar office buildings in the
greater Seattle area, including without limitation electricity for lighting and
low-power usage office machines; water and sewer; and mechanical, cooling,
heating and ventilation at such times as Landlord normally furnishes this
service to other tenants of the Building, but in no event less than "Normal
Business Hours" (as defined as below), and at such temperatures and in such
amounts as are reasonably standard for office buildings in the greater Seattle
area. Building access, electricity as described above, water, sewer, and parking
if and as described in Exhibit D shall be available at all times. The cooling,
heating and ventilation system shall be available during Normal Business Hours.
"Normal Business Hours" shall be from 5:00a.m. to 6:00p.m. on weekdays, and
8:00a.m. to 1:00p.m. on Saturdays, excluding legal holidays (New Year's Day,
Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and days
associated therewith). Landlord also shall provide daily (i.e., five days per
week) janitorial service, lamp replacement for Landlord-furnished lighting,
toilet room supplies and perimeter window washing, all with reasonable frequency
customary to office buildings in the greater Seattle area. Landlord shall
provide cooling, heating and ventilation at times other than Normal Business
Hours upon Tenant's request and with reasonable notice to Landlord, and Tenant
shall pay the reasonable cost thereof. Landlord shall provide keys or other
appropriate access devices that will allow Tenant access to the Premises at all
times. Unless charged to individual tenants (including Tenant) as herein
provided, the costs of such Landlord services described in this Section 9 shall
be included as "Operating Expenses" and paid as Additional Rent pursuant to
Section 6. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused by or
resulting from any variation, interruption or failure of such services due to
any cause whatsoever, and no temporary interruption or failure of such services
incident to the making of repairs, alterations or improvements or due to
accident or strike conditions shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant or relieve
Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations hereunder. For those services within
Landlord's reasonable control, Landlord will correct any interruption of
services as soon as practicable.

         If Tenant has special mechanical, cooling, heating, ventilation,
electrical or other requirements, then the cost of furnishing, installing,
operating and maintaining the equipment and appurtenances (including separate
meters if requested by Landlord to satisfy these requirements) shall be borne by
Tenant, with Tenant either paying directly to the utility if separately metered
or paying to Landlord, as Rent, the reasonable cost of providing such additional
services. In addition, if the Premises are separately metered and charged for
some or all utilities or services (e.g. separate electric meter or gas meter),
then regardless of whether Tenant is engaged in special usage, Landlord may
elect to have Tenant contract with and pay directly the utility or service
provider. In any such case of individual metering and Premises-specific charges
of utilities or services. Operating Expenses for purposes  of calculating
Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses shall not include the cost of providing
such utilities or services to other tenants of the Project (but will continue to
include the cost of providing such utilities or services to the Common Areas).

         The Building standard mechanical system is designed to accommodate
heating loads generated by lights and standard office automation equipment.
Before installing lights or equipment in the Premises, which in the aggregate
exceed reasonable and customary loads, Tenant shall obtain the written
permission of Landlord. Landlord may refuse to grant such permission unless
Tenant shall agree to pay Landlord's costs to install supplementary air
conditioning capacity or electrical systems as necessitated by such equipment or
lights or if the equipment or lights requested by Tenant will, in Landlord's
reasonable judgment, overburden the Building's structure or mechanical system(s)
even if supplemented at Tenant's expense.

         10. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not cause or permit,
directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, any of the following
events (individually and collectively, a "Transfer") (or any amendment to the
instrument affecting the same) without in each case first obtaining Landlord's
written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld: (1) a sale,
assignment, hypothecation, mortgage, encumbrance, conveyance or other transfer
of this Lease (or any interest therein); (2) a sublease of the Premises or any
portion thereof; or (3) the use or occupancy of the Premises or any portion
thereof by anyone other than Tenant. No transfer shall relieve Tenant of any
liability under this Lease. Landlord's consent to any Transfer shall not operate
as a waiver of the necessity for consent to any subsequent Transfer. If such
consent is requested, Landlord reserves the right to terminate this Lease, or,
if consent is requested for subletting less than the entire Premises, to
terminate this Lease with respect to the portion for such consent is requested,
at the proposed effective date of the Transfer, in which event Landlord shall
have the right (but not the obligation) to enter into the relationship of
Landlord and tenant with any such assignee, subtenant or transferee, based on
the rent (and /or other consideration) and all other terms agreed to by such
assignee, subtenant or transferee and otherwise upon the terms and conditions of
this Lease. If Tenant assigns this Lease or sublease the Premises or portions
thereof for more than the Rent then payable under this Lease with Landlord's
consent as described above Tenant shall pay to Landlord the entire excess amount
of

                                                   Landlord [INITIALS ILLEGIBLE]
                                                            --------------------
                                                     Tenant D.H.

rent or other consideration, as and when received by Tenant, as Rent hereunder.
If Tenant is a corporation, any transfer of this Lease by merger, consolidation
or liquidation, or any change in the ownership of, or power to vote, a majority
of its outstanding voting stock (including redemption thereof) shall constitute
a Transfer, and in such event, Landlord's approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld. If Tenant is a partnership, any transfer of this Lease by merger,
consolidation, liquidation or dissolution of the partnership, or any change in
the ownership of a majority of the partnership interests shall constitute a
Transfer. As a condition to Landlord's approval, any potential assignee
otherwise approved by Landlord shall assume and shall assume and shall be
jointly and severally liable with Tenant for all obligations of Tenant under
this Lease with respect to the portion of the Premises that is subleased to such
sublessee. This Lease shall not be assigned by operation of law.

         11. CARE OF PREMISES. Tenant shall keep the Premises in a neat, clean
and sanitary condition and shall at all times preserve them in good condition
and repair, ordinary wear and tear or damage due to casualty or condemnation
excepted. If Tenant shall fail to do so, Landlord may at its option place the
Premises into said condition and state of repair, and in such case Tenant on
demand shall pay or reimburse Landlord for the costs thereof. Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for the cost of replacing all broken glass with glass of same
or similar quality.

         12. SURRENDER OF PREMISES; REMOVAL OF PROPERTY. Subject to the terms of
Section 15 relating to damage and destruction, upon expiration or termination of
the Lease Term, whether by lapse of time or otherwise (including any holdover
period), Tenant at its expense shall: (1) remove Tenant's goods and effects and
those of all persons claiming under Tenant, and (2) repair and restore the
Premises to a condition as good as received by Tenant from Landlord or as
thereafter improved, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and (3) promptly and
peacefully surrender the Premises (including surrender of all tenant, except
Tenant's trade fixtures that do not become part of the Building). If Tenant
causes the Premises to be improved with other than Building standard ceiling
suspension system, fluorescent light fixtures, mechanical cooling, heating and
ventilation units, millwork detail, doors, door sills, hardware or hard surface
floor tile and base, then at Landlord's option Tenant shall pay Landlord an
amount equal to the cost to replace all such nonstandard items with Building
standard items. Any property left on the Premises after the expiration or
termination of the Lease Term shall be deemed to have been abandoned and to have
become the property of Landlord to dispose of as Landlord deems expedient, and
Tenant shall be liable for all costs associated with the disposal of such
property. Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages that may be caused by
Landlord's reentering and taking possession of the Premises or removing and
storing Tenant's property as herein provided, and Tenant shall indemnify and
hold harmless Landlord therefrom. No such reentry shall be considered or
construed to be a forcible entry.

         13. ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall make no additions, changes, alterations
or improvements ("Work") to the Premises or any electrical, mechanical or fire
protection facilities pertaining to the Premises without the prior written
consent of Landlord. All Work shall be at Tenant's sole cost and shall be
performed in a good and workmanlike manner and all materials used shall be of a
quality comparable to those in the Premises and the Building and shall be in
accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord, and Landlord may
require that all Work be performed under Landlord's supervision. In any case,
Tenant shall pay Landlord a reasonable fee to cover Landlord's overhead or
third-party costs in reviewing Tenant's plans and specifications and performing
any supervision of Work. Tenant shall maintain a safe working environment,
including the continuation of all fire and security protection devices, if any,
previously installed in the Premises by Landlord. All damages or injury done to
the Premises or the Building Complex by Tenant or by any persons who may be in
or upon the Premises or the Building Complex with the express or implied consent
of Tenant, including but not limited to the cracking or breaking of any glass
windows and doors, shall be paid for by Tenant and Tenant shall pay for all
damage to the Building Complex caused by acts or omissions of Tenant or Tenant's
officers, contractors, subcontractors, agents, invitees, licensees, employees,
successors or assigns. If Landlord consents to or supervises any Work by Tenant,
the same shall not be deemed a warranty as to the adequacy of the design,
workmanship or quality of materials, and Landlord hereby expressly disclaims any
responsibility or liability for the same, except with respect to Landlord's
intentional misconduct. Landlord shall under no circumstances have any
obligation to repair, maintain or replace any portion of any Work. All
alterations, additions and improvements except Tenant's trade fixtures that do
not become a part of the Building shall remain in an be surrendered with the
Premises as a part thereof at the expiration or sooner termination of this
Lease. Tenant shall comply with all applicable laws, codes and regulations in
connection with all Work.

         14. ENTRY AND INSPECTION. Landlord at all reasonable times and with
reasonable prior notice (and at any time in case of emergency) may enter the
Premises for the purpose of inspection, cleaning, repairing, altering or
improving the Premises or the Building subject to Tenant's reasonable security
requirements. Nothing in this Section 14 shall impose upon Landlord any
obligation not expressly imposed elsewhere in this Lease. Landlord shall have
the right at reasonable times to enter the Premises for the purpose of showing
the Premises to any fee owners, ground lessors, holders of encumbrances on the
interest of Landlord and any prospective purchasers, mortgagees, ground lessors
or tenants of the Building or a portion thereof. If during the last month of the
Lease Term Tenant shall have removed substantially all of Tenant's property and
personnel from the Premises, Landlord may enter the Premises and repair, alter
and redecorate the same without abatement of Rent and without liability to
Tenant, and such acts shall have no effect on this Lease.

         15.      DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.

                  15.1 DAMAGE AND REPAIR. In case of damage to the Premises or
the Building by fire or other casualty, Tenant immediately shall notify
Landlord. If the Building is damaged by fire or any other cause to such extent
that the cost of restoration, as reasonably estimated by Landlord, will equal or
exceed thirty percent (30%) of the replacement value of the Building (exclusive
of foundations)just prior to the occurrence of the damage, or if insurance
proceeds sufficient for full restoration are unavailable for any reason, then
Landlord no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the damage may give
Tenant notice of election to terminate this Lease. In the event of such election
this Lease shall surrender possession of the Premises within a reasonable time
thereafter, and Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of Tenant's surrender
and any Rent paid for any period beyond such date shall be repaid to Tenant. If
the cost of restoration as estimated by Landlord shall amount to less than
thirty (30%) percent of said replacement value of the Building and insurance
proceeds sufficient for restoration are available, or if Landlord does not elect
to terminate this Lease under the second sentence of this Section 15.1, then
Landlord shall restore the Building and Premises (to the extent of the Tenant
Improvements originally provided by Landlord hereunder) with reasonable
promptness, subject to delays beyond Landlord's control and delays in the making
of insurance adjustments by Landlord, and Tenant shall have no right to
terminate this Lease. To the extent that the Premises are rendered untenantable,
Rent shall proportionally abate during the period of such untenantability,
unless such damage resulted from or was contributed to directly or indirectly by
the act, fault or neglect of Tenant, Tenant's officers, contractors,
subcontractors, agents, employees, invitees or licensees, in which case Rent
shall abate only to the extent Landlord receives proceeds from any rental income
insurance policy to compensate Landlord for a loss of Rent hereunder.

                  15.2 BUSINESS INTERRUPTION. No damages, compensation or claims
shall be payable by Landlord for inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance
arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises or the
Building. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to effect any such repairs
promptly.

                  15.3 PROPERTY OF TENANT. Landlord will not carry insurance of
any kind on any property of Tenant, including inventory, equipment, floor,
ceiling and wall coverings, furniture and trade fixtures, and any Tenant
Improvements and other improvements to the Premises that are paid for by Tenant
and Landlord shall be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the
same.

         16.  INDEMNIFICATION.

         Tenant shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Landlord from and
against all liabilities, damages, suits, obligations, fines, losses, claims,
actions, judgments, penalties, charges, costs, or expenses, including, without
limitation, attorneys' and other professional fees and disbursements
(collectively, "Liabilities"), in conjunction with any loss of life, personal
injury and/or property damage arising out of or relating to the occupancy or use
by Tenant or any part of the Premises or the Building Complex occasioned wholly
or in part by any act or omission of Tenant or its officers, contractors,
subcontractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees, or any assignee or
sublessee. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage to persons or
property sustained by Tenant or other persons, which may be caused by theft, or
by any act or neglect of any tenant or occupant of the Building or any other
third parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for those Liabilities arising from
activities to which RCW 4.24.115 is held to be applicable, (i) Tenant shall have
no liability for any such Liabilities caused by or resulting from the sole
negligence of Landlord for its agents or employees and (ii) for any such
Liabilities that arise out of the concurrent negligence of Landlord or its
agents or employees and Tenant or its agents or employees, Tenant shall be
liable under this indemnity provision only to the extent of the negligence of
Tenant or its agents or employees.

         17.  INSURANCE.

                  17.1 LIABILITY INSURANCE. Throughout the Lease Term Tenant, at
its own expense, shall keep and maintain in full force and effect a policy of
commercial general liability insurance including a contractual liability
endorsement covering Tenant's obligations under Sections 16, insuring Tenant's
activities upon, in and about the Premises and the Building Complex against
claims of bodily injury or death or property damage or loss with a limit of not
less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit per occurrence
and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) in the aggregate (per policy year). In no
event shall the deductible under such policy be in excess of One Thousand
Dollars ($1,000).

                  17.2 PROPERTY INSURANCE Throughout the Lease Term Tenant, as
its own expense, shall keep and maintain in full force and effect what is
commonly referred to as "all risk" coverage insurance or its equivalent (but
excluding earthquake and flood) on all property of Tenant, including inventory,
equipment, floor ceiling and wall coverings, furniture and trade fixtures, and
any Tenant Improvements and other improvements to the Premises that are paid for
by Tenant in an amount not less than the then current One Hundred Percent (100%)
replacement value thereof.

                  17.3 WORKERS' COMPENSATION INSURANCE. Throughout the Lease
Term Tenant, at its own expense, shall keep and maintain in full force and
effect workers' compensation insurance in an amount equal to at least the
minimum statutory amount then currently required in the State of Washington.

                                       7
<PAGE>   11

                 17.4 INSURANCE POLICY REQUIREMENTS. All insurance required
under this Section 17 shall be with companies rated AX or better in Best's
Insurance Guide and who are qualified to do business in the State of Washington.
Tenant may, with the prior written consent of Landlord, elect to have reasonable
deductibles in connection with the policy required Section 17.2 above. No
insurance policy required under this Section 17 shall be canceled or reduced in
coverage and each insurance policy shall provide that it is not subject to
cancellation or material alteration except after thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Landlord. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord prior to Commencement Date
and from time to time thereafter, copies of policies of such insurance or
certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of same and, with the
exception of the policy required under Section 17.3, naming Landlord as an
additional insured thereunder, and each policy or certificate shall expressly
provide that the interest of Landlord therein shall not be affected by any
breach by Tenant of any provision of such policy or the policy for which such
certificate evidences coverage. Further, all certificates shall expressly
provide that the coverage evidenced thereby shall be primary and that any
policies carried by Landlord shall be excess and noncontributory with such
primary insurance. The limits of any required insurance policy shall not limit
the liability of Tenant under this Lease.

                  17.5 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Notwithstanding any other
provisions to the contrary herein, Landlord and Tenant release each other, their
agents and employees from liability and waive all right of recovery against each
other for any loss from perils insured against under their respective policies
for damage caused by fire or other perils (including those covered by all risk
extended coverage) that are covered by insurance, regardless of any fault or
negligence. Each party shall use reasonable efforts to cause its insurance
carriers to consent to the foregoing waiver of rights of subrogation against the
other party. The waiver of subrogation provided herein shall apply to the full
extent, but only to the extent, that the same shall be valid and enforceable
without impairment of insurance coverage.

         18. ADVERTISING AND SIGNS. Tenant shall not place on the exterior of
the Premises or the Building, or on any exterior door or wall or the exterior
door or wall or the exterior or interior of any window thereof, or on any part
of the interior of the Premises visible form the exterior thereof, any sign or
advertising matter and shall not place any decoration, letter or other thing of
any kind on the glass of any window or door of the Premises, without the prior
written consent of Landlord. With respect to any sign or advertising matter or
decoration approved by Landlord, Tenant at its sole cost and expense shall
maintain the same in good condition and repair at all times. Landlord hereby
reserves the exclusive right to remove temporarily Tenant's sign during any
period when Landlord repairs, restores, constructs or renovates the Premises or
the Building. Landlord shall have the right to prohibit any advertising by
Tenant that, in Landlord's opinion, tends to impair the reputation of the
Building as a first class office building. Upon the expiration or sooner
termination of this Lease, Tenant at Landlord's request shall remove all signs,
advertising matters or decorations at its sole cost and expense and repair any
resulting damage to the Premises and the Building.

         19.  INSOLVENCY AND LIENS.

                  19.1 INSOLVENCY. If Tenant becomes insolvent or voluntarily
bankrupt, or if a receiver, trustee or other liquidating officer is appointed
for the business of Tenant, Landlord at its option may terminate this Lease and
Tenant's right of possession under this Lease and in no event shall this Lease
or any rights or privileges hereunder be an asset of Tenant in any bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization proceeding, or Landlord may treat such insolvency
as a default under Section 21 of this Lease and invoke any and all remedies
available thereunder. In the event of an assumption or assignment by operation
of law under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any state bankruptcy or insolvency
law and Landlord elects not to terminate this Lease (or is otherwise prevented
from electing to terminate this Lease), the trustee in assuming this Lease or
any assignee thereof shall (a) remedy Tenant's prior default under this Lease,
(b) be bound by and assume all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, (c)
provide adequate assurances of future performance of all the terms, conditions
and covenants of this Lease, which shall include making the following express
covenants to the Landlord: (1) there is sufficient capital to pay all Rent due
under the Lease for the entire Lease Term, (2) assumption of the Lease by any
assignee will not cause Landlord to be in violation or breach of any provision
of any other lease, finance agreement, security instrument or operating
agreement concerning the Building or the Property, and (3) such assumption or
assignment by the assignee will not substantially disrupt or impair any existing
tenant mix or development plans for the Building or the Property.

                  19.2 LIENS. Tenants shall not permit any lien to be filed
against the Premises, the Building or the Property by reason of obligation
incurred by or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds
Landlords harmless from any liability from any such lien. If any lien is filed
against the Premises, the Building or the Property by any person claiming by,
through or under Tenant, Tenant shall upon request of Landlord, at Tenant's
expense, immediately cause such lien to be released; or, at Landlord's election,
furnish to Landlord a bond in form and in an amount of not less than One Hundred
Fifty Percent (150%) of said lien and issued by a surety satisfaction to
Landlord, indemnifying Landlord, the Building and the Property against all
liability, cost and expenses, including attorneys' fees, which Landlord may
incur as a result thereof. Provided that such bond has been furnished to
Landlord, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense and after written notice to
Landlord, may contest, by appropriate proceedings conducted in good faith and
with due diligence, any lien, encumbrance or charge against the Premises arising
from work done or materials provided to and for Tenant, if, and only if, such
proceedings suspend the collection thereof from Landlord, Tenant and the
Premises, and neither the Premises, the Building, the Property nor any part
thereof or interest therein is or will be in any danger of being sold, forfeited
or lost.

<PAGE>   12

         20.      CONDEMNATION.

                  20.1 ENTIRE TAKING. If all of the Premises or the Building or
such portions of the Building as may be required for the reasonable use of the
Premises, are taken by eminent domain or conveyance in lieu thereof, this Lease
shall automatically terminate as of the date title vests in the condemning
authority and all Rent shall be paid to that date.

                  20.2 PARTIAL TAKING. In the event of a taking of a part of the
Building other than the Premises or of a portion of the Property, and if
Landlord determines that the Building should be restored in such a way as to
alter the Premises materially, Landlord may terminate this Lease and the term
and estate hereby granted by notifying Tenant of such termination within sixty
(60) days following the date of vesting of title; and this Lease and the term
and estate hereby granted shall expire on the date specified in the notice of
termination, not less than sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice, as
fully and completely as if such date were the date hereinbefore set forth for
the expiration of the Lease Term, and Rent hereunder shall be apportioned as of
such date. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 20.2, in case of
taking of a part of the Premises, or a portion of the Building or the Property
not required for the reasonable use of the Premises, then this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect and the Rent shall be equitably reduced based
on the proportion by which the net rentable area of the Premises is reduced (or
if one of the Premises is taken, based on the proportion by which the use of the
Premises is materially reduced), such Tent reduction to be effective as of the
date title to such portion vests in the condemning authority.

                  20.3 AWARDS AND DAMAGES. Landlord reserves all rights to
damages to the Premises for any partial or entire taking by eminent domain, and
Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any right Tenant may have to such damages or
award (except for Property of Tenant as defined in Section 7), and the Tenant
shall make no claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for damages for
termination of the leasehold interest. Tenant shall have the right however, to
claim and recover from the condemning authority compensation for any loss to
which Tenant may be put for Tenant's moving expenses, business interruption or
taking of Property of Tenant (not including Tenant's leasehold interest), but
only to the extent that such loss is awarded separately in the eminent domain
proceeding and not out of or as part of the damages recoverable by Landlord.

         21.      DEFAULT; REMEDIES.

         21.1 EVENTS OF Default. Each of the following shall be deemed a default
by Tenant and a material breach of this Lease:

                 21.1.1 Failure by Tenant to pay when due any rent hereunder if
such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) days after written notice
thereof has been given to Tenant; or

                 21.1.2 Failure by Tenant to perform or observe any of the other
terms, covenants. conditions, agreements or provisions of this Lease if such
failure shall continue for a period of fifteen (15) days after written notice
thereof has been given to Tenant; provided, however, that if any such failure
cannot reasonably be cured within such fifteen (15) day period, then Tenant
shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant commences to cure such failure
within a reasonable time not to exceed fifteen (15) days and for as long as
Tenant is diligently prosecuting the cure thereof up to a total of thirty (30)
days after the notice from Landlord has been given; or

                 21.1.3 Any misrepresentation or material omission of
information made by Tenant orally to Landlord or in any documents or other
materials provided by Tenant to Landlord in connection with this Lease; and

                 21.1.4 Any vacation or abandonment by Tenant of the Premises.
As used herein "vacation" shall mean a prolonged absence from the Premises, and
"abandonment" shall mean an absence from the Premises of five (5) days or more
while Tenant is in default.

                  21.2 LANDLORD REMEDIES FOR TENANT DEFAULT. If any default

(15) days prior to the date upon which the Premises, together with the common
facilities for access and service thereto, shall be substantially completed,
then the Commencement Date shall be the date specified in such notice (which
shall not be prior to January 20, 2000, without Tenant's consent) or any earlier
date upon which Tenant occupies the Premises; and

                  (2) As used herein, "substantially completed" shall mean (i)
any Tenant Improvements to be installed by Landlord in the Premises pursuant to
this Exhibit C are completed, subject to punch list items, (ii) Tenant has
access to the Premises, and (iii) the cooling, heating and ventilation systems

substantially completed shall be reasonably and exclusively made by Landlord's
architect. Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the Commencement
Date to occur by January 20, 2000.

         B.TENANT OBLIGATIONS. If the Tenant Improvements are not competed on
the Commencement Date due to the failure of Tenant to fulfill any obligations
pursuant to the terms of this Lease or any Exhibit hereto, including without
limitation Tenant's failure to substantially comply with any dates set forth in
this Exhibit C, the Lease shall be deemed to have commenced upon the date it
would have commenced but for Tenant's failure, which date shall be determined by
Landlord in its sole reasonable discretion and confirmed to Tenant in writing.

         C.TENANT TERMINATION RIGHTS. If the Commencement Date does not occur
within three (3) months following the date specified in Section 1.3, then Tenant
may terminate this Lease by written notice, except such three (3)-month period
at Landlord's sole option may be extended to a date not later than six
(6)-months from the Commencement Date specified in Section 1.3 for delays due to
causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. If the Commencement Date has
not occurred within such six (6)-month period at Tenant's option, this Lease
shall be deemed null and void and all rights and obligations of the parties
shall terminate. Termination under this Exhibit C shall be Tenant's sole remedy
for any failure or delay in delivering possession of the Premises or completion
of the Tenant Improvements and Tenant shall have no other rights or claims
hereunder at law or in equity.

production, disposal or bringing on to the Premises, the Building or the
Property of any Hazardous Materials. As used herein, the term "Hazardous

the Building, the Property or any adjacent property, or incorporated in any
improvements thereto, thereon, therein, at Tenant's expense.

         After notice to Tenant and a reasonable opportunity for Tenant to
effect such compliance, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, enter upon
the Premises and take such actions and incur such costs and expenses to effect
such compliance as it deems advisable to protect its interest in the Premises.
However, Landlord shall not be obligated to give Tenant notice and an
opportunity to effect compliance if (i) such delay might result in material
adverse harm to Landlord, the Premises, the Building or the Property; (ii)
Tenant has already had actual knowledge of the situation and a reasonable
opportunity to effect compliance, or (iii) Landlord reasonably believes that an
emergency exists. Whether or not Tenant has actual knowledge of the release of
Hazardous Material on the Premises, the Building, the Property or any adjacent
property as the result of Tenant's use of the Premises, the Building or the
Property, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the full amount of all costs and
expenses incurred by Landlord relating to such Hazardous Materials or in
connection with such compliance activities. Tenant shall notify Landlord
immediately of any release of any Hazardous Materials on the Premises of which
Tenant is aware.

         Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord against any and
all losses, liabilities, suits, obligations, fines, damages, judgments,
penalties, claims, charges, cleanup costs, remedial actions, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys' and other professional fees and
disbursements) that may be imposed on, incurred or paid by, or asserted against
Landlord, the Premises, the Building, or the Property by reason of, or in
connection with (i) any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or other default
by Tenant under this Section 5.2, or (ii) the acts or omissions of Tenant, its
officers, contractors, subcontractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees,
guests, invitees or visitors, or any assignee or sublessee or other person for
whom Tenant would otherwise be liable, resulting in the release of any Hazardous
Materials. All of Tenant's obligations and liabilities under this Section 5.2
shall survive expiration or other termination of this Lease and shall be
separately enforceable by Landlord.

         Landlord certifies that to the best of their knowledge and belief the
Premises are free from Asbestos.

assessed or any other tax upon owning, leasing or rents receivable by Landlord
from the Building Complex, but excluding any federal, state or local income tax
or inheritance, gift, succession or franchise taxes imposed on Landlord.

                           6.2.3 "Lease Year" shall mean each 12-month period
commencing January 1 and ending December 31, or any portion thereof, during the
Lease Term.

                           6.2.4 "Actual Expenses" shall mean the actual
expenses paid or incurred by Landlord for Operating Expenses and Real Property
Taxes during any Lease Year.

                           6.2.5 "Actual Expenses Allocable to the Premises"
shall mean Actual Expenses multiplied by Tenant's Pro Rata Share.

                                       3
<PAGE>   7
                           6.2.6 "Estimated Expenses Allocable to the Premises"
shall mean Landlord's estimate of Actual Expenses Allocable to the Premises for
the following Lease Year to be given by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to Section
6.3.1 below.

                           6.2.7 "Base Year" as used in this Lease means, for
the Term, the calendar year 2000 and, for each Extended Term, the Lease Year in
which the Extended Term falls. Electrical and janitorial expenses included in
Operating costs for the base Year shall be adjusted by Landlord to fairly
reflect ninety-five percent 95%) occupied on January 1 of the Base Year.

         6.3 MANNER OF PAYMENT. Tenant's payment of Additional rent shall be
made as follows:

                           6.3.1 Prior to the commencement of each Lease Year,
Landlord shall furnish Tenant a written statement of the Estimated Expenses
allocable to the premises for such Lease Year, and a calculation of Additional
rent as follows: One-twelfth (1/12) of the amount, if any, by which Estimated
Expenses Allocable to the Premises exceeds the Base Amount, which excess amount
shall be additional Rent payable by Tenant for each month during such Lease
Year. If at any time or times during such Lease Year it reasonably appears to
Landlord that the Actual Expenses Allocable to the Premises shall vary from
Estimated Expenses Allocable to the Premises by more than five percent(5%) on an
annual basis, then Landlord by written notice to Tenant may revise the Estimated
Expenses Allocable to the Premises for such Lease Year and Additional Rent
payments by Tenant for such Lease Year shall thereafter be equal to one-twelfth
(1/12) of the amount by which such revised Estimated Expenses Allocable to the
Premises exceed the Base Amount.

                           6.3.2 Within ninety (90) days after the end of each
Lease Year, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall provide a
statement (the "Statement") to Tenant showing: (a) the amount of Actual Expenses
Allocable to the Premises during the prior Lease Year, with a listing of amounts
for Real Property Taxes and major categories of Operating Expenses; (b) any
amount paid by Tenant as Additional Rent during such prior Lease Year; and (c)
any revision to the Estimated Expenses Allocable to the Premises for the current
Lease Year.

                           6.3.3 If the Statement shows Tenant's payments were
less than the excess of Actual Expenses Allocable to the premises for the prior
Lease Year over the Base Amount, then Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord the
difference. If the Statement shows an increase in Estimated Expenses Allocable
to the Premises for the current Lease Year, then Tenant's Additional Rent
payments for the balance of the Lease Year shall be equal to one-twelfth (1/12)
of the amount by which such increased Estimated Expenses Allocable to the
Premises exceeds the Base Amount, and Tenant shall pay the difference between
the new and former estimates for the period from January 1 of the current Lease
Year through the month in which the Statement is sent. Tenant shall pay any such
difference within thirty (30) days after Landlord sends the Statement.

                           6.3.4 If the Statement shows that Tenant's payments
exceeded the amount by which Actual Expenses Allocable to the Premises exceeded
the Base Amount, then Tenant shall receive a credit in the amount of the
difference against payments of Rent next due. If the Lease Term shall have
expired and no further Rent shall be due, Tenant shall receive a refund in the
amount of such difference within (30) days after Landlord sends the Statement.

                           6.3.5 So long as Tenant's obligations hereunder are
not materially adversely affected thereby, Landlord reserves the right to
reasonably change, from time to time, the manner or timing of the foregoing
payments. In lieu of providing one (1) Statement covering Operating Expenses and
Real Property Taxes, Landlord may provide separate statements, at the same or
different times. No delay by Landlord in providing the Statement (or separate
statements) shall be deemed a default by Landlord or a waiver of Landlord's
right to require payment of Tenant's obligations for actual or estimated
Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes.

         6.4 PRORATION. If the Lease Term commences on a date other than January
1, or ends on a date other than December 31, Tenant's obligations to pay
estimated and actual amounts toward Additional Rent for such first or final
calendar year shall be prorated to reflect the portion of such year(s) included
in the Lease Term. Such Proration shall be made by multiplying (i) the Base
Amount (as stated on an annual basis) and (ii) the total Estimated or Actual
Expenses Allocable to the Premises for such calendar year(s) by a fraction the
numerator of which is the number of days of the Lease Term during such calendar
year and the denominator of which is 365.

         6.5 LANDLORD'S RECORDS. The determination of Additional Rent shall be
made by Landlord. Landlord or its agents shall keep records in reasonable detail
showing all expenditures made or items enumerated above, which records shall be
available for inspection at Landlord's offices by Tenant. All costs of such
inspection shall be borne solely by Tenant, and at the Landlord's premises
conducted during Landlord's normal business hours. Tenant is entitled to audit
Landlord's records one (1) time per year and only for the preceding Lease Year
as defined in Section 6.2.3 Inspection of Landlord's records must be conducted
within one hundred twenty (120) days of receiving the "Statement". Furthermore,
any audit cannot be performed using a contingency basis auditor and all
information reviewed is to be kept strictly confidential between Landlord and
Tenant.

         6.6 FURTHER ADJUSTMENT. In the event the average occupancy level of the
Building for any Lease Year was or is not ninety-five percent (95%) or more of
full occupancy, then Actual Expenses and Landlord's estimate thereof for such
Lease Year shall be proportionately adjusted by Landlord to reflect those costs
that would have occurred had the Building been ninety-five percent (95%)
occupied during such Lease Year.

                                       4
<PAGE>   8
         7. PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES. Tenant shall pay, prior to delinquency, all
Personal Property Taxes (as defined below) payable with respect to all Property
of Tenant (as defined below) located on the Premises or in the Building Complex
and promptly upon request of Landlord shall provide written proof of such
payment. As used herein, "Property of Tenant" shall mean and include, without
limitation, all personal property of Tenant including inventory, equipment,
floor, ceiling and wall coverings, furniture and trade fixtures kept or used on
or installed in the Premises and any Tenant Improvements and other improvements
to the Premises that are owned by and separately assessed to Tenant. "Personal
Property Taxes" shall include all property taxes assessed against the Property
of Tenant, whether assessed as real or personal property.

         8. TAXES ON RENT. The Rent provided for in this Lease is exclusive of
any sales or other tax or charge upon, based upon or measured by rents payable
to Landlord hereunder, or any tax or other charge based upon or measured by the
number of employees of Tenant, or any other tax that is not currently in effect.
If during the Lease Term any such tax or other charge becomes payable by
Landlord to any governmental authority, the Rent hereunder shall be deemed
increased by such amount upon thirty (30) days' written notice by Landlord to
Tenant. The foregoing does not apply to federal, state or local income, gross
receipts, inheritance, gift, succession or franchise taxes payable by Landlord.

         9. SERVICES BY LANDLORD. Landlord will provide those services to the
Premises and the Building that are customary to similar office buildings in the
greater Seattle area, including without limitation; water and sewer; such times
as Landlord normally furnishes this service to other tenants of the Building,
but in no event less than "Normal Business Hours" (as defined as below), and in
such amounts as are reasonably standard for office buildings in the greater
Seattle area. Except for water and sewer, Tenant shall pay the cost of all
electric and other utility services which are separately metered, or incurred by
Tenant, as referenced in paragraph 6.2.1.2. Building access, water, sewer, and
parking if and as described in Exhibit D shall be available at all times.
"Normal Business Hours" shall be from 5:00a.m. to 6:00p.m. on weekdays, and
8:00a.m. to 1:00p.m. on Saturdays, excluding legal holidays (New Year's Day,
Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and days
associated therewith). Landlord also shall provide daily (i.e., five days per
week) janitorial service, lamp replacement for Landlord-furnished lighting,
toilet room supplies and perimeter window washing, all with reasonable frequency
customary to office buildings in the greater Seattle area. Landlord shall
provide keys or other appropriate access devices that will allow Tenant access
to the Premises at all times. Unless charged to individual tenants (including
Tenant) as hereinafter provided, the costs of such Landlord services described
in this Section 9 shall be included as "Operating Expenses" and paid as
Additional Rent pursuant to Section 6. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss
or damage caused by or resulting from any variation, interruption or failure of
such services due to any cause whatsoever, and no temporary interruption or
failure of such services incident to the making of repairs, alterations or
improvements or due to accident or strike conditions shall be deemed an eviction
of Tenant or relieve Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations hereunder. For
those services within Landlord's reasonable control, Landlord will correct any
interruption of services as soon as practicable.

         If Tenant has special mechanical, cooling, heating, ventilation,
electrical or other requirements, then the cost of furnishing, installing,
operating and maintaining the equipment and appurtenances (including separate
meters if requested by Landlord to satisfy these requirements) shall be borne by
Tenant, with Tenant either paying directly to the utility if separately metered
or paying to Landlord, as Rent, the reasonable cost of providing such additional
services.

         The Building standard mechanical system is designed to accommodate
heating loads generated by lights and standard office automation equipment.
Before installing lights or equipment in the Premises, which in the aggregate
exceed reasonable and customary loads, Tenant shall obtain the written
permission of Landlord. Landlord may refuse to grant such permission unless
Tenant shall agree to pay Landlord's costs to install supplementary air
conditioning capacity or electrical systems as necessitated by such equipment or
lights or if the equipment or lights requested by Tenant will, in Landlord's
reasonable judgment, overburden the Building's structure or mechanical system(s)
even if supplemented at Tenant's expense.

         10. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not cause or permit,
directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, any of the following
events (individually and collectively, a "Transfer") (or any amendment to the
instrument affecting the same) without in each case first obtaining Landlord's
written consent, which may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion: (1) a
sale, assignment, hypothecation, mortgage, encumbrance, conveyance or other
transfer of this Lease (or any interest therein); (2) a sublease of the Premises
or any portion thereof; or (3) the use or occupancy of the Premises or any
portion thereof by anyone other than Tenant. No transfer shall relieve Tenant of
any liability under this Lease. Landlord's consent to any Transfer shall not
operate as a waiver of the necessity for consent to any subsequent Transfer. If
such consent is requested, Landlord reserves the right to terminate this Lease,
or, if consent is requested for subletting less than the entire Premises, to
terminate this Lease with respect to the portion for such consent is requested,
at the proposed effective date of the Transfer, in which event Landlord shall
have the right (but not the obligation) to enter into the relationship of
Landlord and tenant with any such assignee, subtenant or transferee, based on
the rent (and/or other consideration) and all other terms agreed to by such
assignee, subtenant or transferee and otherwise upon the terms and conditions of
this Lease. If Tenant assigns this Lease or sublease the Premises or portions
thereof for more than the Rent then payable under this Lease with Landlord's
consent as described above Tenant shall pay to Landlord the entire excess amount
of rent or other consideration, as and when received by Tenant, as Rent
hereunder. If Tenant is a corporation, any transfer of this Lease by merger,
consolidation or liquidation, or any change in the ownership of, or power to
vote, a majority of its outstanding voting stock (including redemption thereof)
shall constitute a Transfer, and in such event, Landlord's approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. If Tenant is a partnership, any transfer of this Lease by
merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution of the partnership, or any
change in the ownership of a majority of the partnership interests shall
constitute a Transfer. As a condition to Landlord's approval, any potential
assignee otherwise approved by Landlord shall assume and shall assume and shall
be jointly and severally liable with Tenant for all obligations of Tenant under
this Lease with respect to the portion of the Premises that is subleased to such
sublessee. This Lease shall not be assigned by operation of law.

         11. CARE OF PREMISES. Tenant shall keep the Premises in a neat, clean
and sanitary condition and shall at all times preserve them in good condition
and repair, ordinary wear and tear or damage due to casualty or condemnation
excepted. If Tenant shall fail to do so, Landlord may at its option place the
Premises into said condition and state of repair, and in such case Tenant on
demand shall pay or reimburse Landlord for the costs thereof. Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for the cost of replacing all broken glass with glass of same
or similar quality.

         12. SURRENDER OF PREMISES; REMOVAL OF PROPERTY. Subject to the terms of
Section 15 relating to damage and destruction, upon expiration or termination of
the Lease Term, whether by lapse of time or otherwise (including any holdover
period), Tenant at its expense shall: (1) remove Tenant's goods and effects and
those of all persons claiming under Tenant, and (2) repair and restore the
Premises to a condition as good as received by Tenant from Landlord or as
thereafter improved, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and (3) promptly and
peacefully surrender the Premises (including surrender of all tenant, except
Tenant's trade fixtures that do not become part of the Building). If Tenant
causes the Premises to be improved with other than Building standard ceiling
suspension system, fluorescent light fixtures, mechanical cooling, heating and
ventilation units, millwork detail, doors, door sills, hardware or hard surface
floor tile and base, then at Landlord's option Tenant shall pay Landlord an
amount equal to the cost to replace all such nonstandard items with Building
standard items. Any property left on the Premises after the expiration or
termination of the Lease Term shall be deemed to have been abandoned and to have
become the property of Landlord to dispose of as Landlord deems expedient, and
Tenant shall be liable for all costs associated with the disposal of such
property. Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages that may be caused by
Landlord's reentering and taking possession of the Premises or removing and
storing Tenant's property as herein provided, and Tenant shall indemnify and
hold harmless Landlord therefrom. No such reentry shall be considered or
construed to be a forcible entry.

         13. ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall make no additions, changes, alterations
or improvements ("Work") to the Premises or any electrical, mechanical or fire
protection facilities pertaining to the Premises without the prior written
consent of Landlord. All Work shall be at Tenant's sole cost and shall be
performed in a good and workmanlike manner and all materials used shall be of a
quality comparable to those in the Premises and the Building and shall be in
accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord, and Landlord may
require that all Work be performed under Landlord's supervision. In any case,
Tenant shall pay Landlord a reasonable fee to cover Landlord's overhead or
third-party costs in reviewing Tenant's plans and specifications and performing
any supervision of Work. Tenant shall maintain a safe working environment,
including the continuation of all fire and security protection devices, if any,
previously installed in the Premises by Landlord. All damages or injury done to
the Premises or the Building Complex by Tenant or by any persons who may be in
or upon the Premises or the Building Complex with the express or implied consent
of Tenant, including but not limited to the cracking or breaking of any glass
windows and doors, shall be paid for by Tenant and Tenant shall pay for all
damage to the Building Complex caused by acts or omissions of Tenant or Tenant's
officers, contractors, subcontractors, agents, invitees, licensees, employees,
successors or assigns. If Landlord consents to or supervises any Work by Tenant,
the same shall not be deemed a warranty as to the adequacy of the design,
workmanship or quality of materials, and Landlord hereby expressly disclaims any
responsibility or liability for the same, except with respect to Landlord's
intentional misconduct. Landlord shall under no circumstances have any
obligation to repair, maintain or replace any portion of any Work. All
alterations, additions and improvements except Tenant's trade fixtures that do
not become a part of the Building shall remain in an be surrendered with the
Premises as a part thereof at the expiration or sooner termination of this
Lease. Tenant shall comply with all applicable laws, codes and regulations in
connection with all Work.

         14. ENTRY AND INSPECTION. Landlord at all reasonable times 2nd with
resonable prior notice (and at any time in case of emergency) may enter the
Premises for the purpose of inspection, cleaning, repairing, altering or
improving the Premises or the Building subject to Tenant's reasonable security
requirements. Nothing in this Section 14 shall impose upon Landlord any
obligation not expressly imposed elsewhere in this Lease. Landlord shall have
the right at reasonable times to enter the Premises for the purpose of showing
the Premises to any fee owners, ground lessors, holders of encumbrances on the
interest of Landlord and any prospective purchasers, mortgagees, ground lessors
or tenants of the Building or a portion thereof. If during the last month of the
Lease Term Tenant shall have removed substantially all of Tenant's property and
personnel from the Premises, Landlord may enter the Premises and repair, alter
and redecorate the same without abatement of Rent and without liability to
Tenant, and such acts shall have no effect on this Lease.

         15. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.

                  15.1 DAMAGE AND REPAIR. In case of damage to the Premises or
the Building by fire or other casualty, Tenant immediately shall notify
Landlord. If the Building is damaged by fire or any other cause to such extent
that the cost of restoration, as reasonably estimated by Landlord, will equal or
exceed thirty percent (30%) of the replacement value of the Building (exclusive
of foundations)just prior to the occurrence of the damage, or if insurance
proceeds sufficient for full restoration are unavailable for any reason, then
Landlord no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the damage may give
Tenant notice of election to terminate this Lease. In the event of such election
this Lease shall surrender possession of the Premises within a reasonable time
thereafter, and Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of Tenant's surrender
and any Rent paid for any period beyond such date shall be repaid to Tenant. If
the cost of restoration as estimated by Landlord shall amount to less than
thirty (30%) percent of said replacement value of the Building and insurance
proceeds sufficient for restoration are available, or if Landlord does not elect
to terminate this Lease under the second sentence of this Section 15.1, then
Landlord shall restore the Building and Premises (to the extent of the Tenant
Improvements originally provided by Landlord hereunder) with reasonable
promptness, subject to delays beyond Landlord's control and delays in the making
of insurance adjustments by Landlord, and Tenant shall have no right to
terminate this Lease. To the extent that the Premises are rendered untenantable,
Rent shall proportionally abate during the period of such untenantability,
unless such damage resulted from or was contributed to directly or indirectly by
the act, fault or neglect of Tenant, Tenant's officers, contractors,
subcontractors, agents, employees, invitees or licensees, in which case Rent
shall abate only to the extent Landlord receives proceeds from any rental income
insurance policy to compensate Landlord for a loss of Rent hereunder.

                  15.2 BUSINESS INTERRUPTION. No damages, compensation or claims
shall be payable by Landlord for inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance
arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises or the
Building. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to effect any such repairs
promptly.

                  15.3 PROPERTY OF TENANT. Landlord will not carry insurance of
any kind on any property of Tenant, including inventory, equipment, floor,
ceiling and wall coverings, furniture and trade fixtures, and any Tenant
Improvements and other improvements to the Premises that are paid for by Tenant
and Landlord shall be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the
same.

         16. INDEMNIFICATION.

         Tenant shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Landlord from and
against all liabilities, damages, suits, obligations, fines, losses, claims,
actions, judgments, penalties, charges, costs, or expenses, including, without
limitation, attorneys' and other professional fees and disbursements
(collectively, "Liabilities"), in conjunction with any loss of life, personal
injury and/or property damage arising out of or relating to the occupancy or use
by Tenant or any part of the Premises or the Building Complex occasioned wholly
or in part by any act or omission of Tenant or its officers, contractors,
subcontractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees, or any assignee or
sublessee. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage to persons or
property sustained by Tenant or other persons, which may be caused by theft, or
by any act or neglect of any tenant or occupant of the Building or any other
third parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for those Liabilities arising from
activities to which RCW 4.24.115 is held to be applicable, (i) Tenant shall have
no liability for any such Liabilities caused by or resulting from the sole
negligence of Landlord for its agents or employees and (ii) for any such
Liabilities that arise out of the concurrent negligence of Landlord or its
agents or employees and Tenant or its agents or employees, Tenant shall be
liable under this indemnity provision only to the extent of the negligence of
Tenant or its agents or employees.

         17. INSURANCE.

                  17.1 LIABILITY INSURANCE. Throughout the Lease Term Tenant, at
its own expense, shall keep and maintain in full force and effect a policy of
commercial general liability insurance including a contractual liability
endorsement covering Tenant's obligations under Sections 16, insuring Tenant's
activities upon, in and about the Premises and the Building Complex against
claims of bodily injury or death or property damage or loss with a limit of not
less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit per occurrence
and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) in the aggregate (per policy year). In no
event shall the deductible under such policy be in excess of One Thousand
Dollars ($1,000).

                  17.2 PROPERTY INSURANCE Throughout the Lease Term Tenant, as
its own expense, shall keep and maintain in full force and effect what is
commonly referred to as "all risk" coverage insurance or its equivalent (but
excluding earthquake and flood) on all property of Tenant, including inventory,
equipment, floor ceiling and wall coverings, furniture and trade fixtures, and
any Tenant Improvements and other improvements to the Premises that are paid for
by Tenant in an amount not less than the then current One Hundred Percent (100%)
replacement value thereof.

                  17.3 WORKERS' COMPENSATION INSURANCE. Throughout the Lease
Term Tenant, at its own expense, shall keep and maintain in full force and
effect workers' compensation insurance in an amount equal to at least the
minimum statutory amount then currently required in the State of Washington.

                                       7
<PAGE>   11
                  17.4 INSURANCE POLICY REQUIREMENTS. All insurance required
under this Section 17 shall be with companies rated AX or better in Best's
Insurance Guide and who are qualified to do business in the State of Washington.
Tenant may, with the prior written consent of Landlord, elect to have reasonable
deductibles in connection with the policy required Section 17.2 above. No
insurance policy required under this Section 17 shall be canceled or reduced in
coverage and each insurance policy shall provide that it is not subject to
cancellation or material alteration except after thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Landlord. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord prior to Commencement Date
and from time to time thereafter, copies of policies of such insurance or
certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of same and, with the
exception of the policy required under Section 17.3, naming Landlord as an
additional insured thereunder, and each policy or certificate shall expressly
provide that the interest of Landlord therein shall not be affected by any
breach by Tenant of any provision of such policy or the policy for which such
certificate evidences coverage. Further, all certificates shall expressly
provide that the coverage evidenced thereby shall be primary and that any
policies carried by Landlord shall be excess and noncontributory with such
primary insurance. The limits of any required insurance policy shall not limit
the liability of Tenant under this Lease.

                  17.5 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Notwithstanding any other
provisions to the contrary herein, Landlord and Tenant release each other, their
agents and employees from liability and waive all right of recovery against each
other for any loss from perils insured against under their respective policies
for damage caused by fire or other perils (including those covered by all risk
extended coverage) that are covered by insurance, regardless of any fault or
negligence. Each party shall use reasonable efforts to cause its insurance
carriers to consent to the foregoing waiver of rights of subrogation against the
other party. The waiver of subrogation provided herein shall apply to the full
extent, but only to the extent, that the same shall be valid and enforceable
without impairment of insurance coverage.

         18. ADVERTISING AND SIGNS. Tenant shall not place on the exterior of
the Premises or the Building, or on any exterior door or wall or the exterior
door or wall or the exterior or interior of any window thereof, or on any part
of the interior of the Premises visible form the exterior thereof, any sign or
advertising matter and shall not place any decoration, letter or other thing of
any kind on the glass of any window or door of the Premises, without the prior
written consent of Landlord. With respect to any sign or advertising matter or
decoration approved by Landlord, Tenant at its sole cost and expense shall
maintain the same in good condition and repair at all times. Landlord hereby
reserves the exclusive right to remove temporarily Tenant's sign during any
period when Landlord repairs, restores, constructs or renovates the Premises or
the Building. Landlord shall have the right to prohibit any advertising by
Tenant that, in Landlord's opinion, tends to impair the reputation of the
Building as a first class office building. Upon the expiration or sooner
termination of this Lease, Tenant at Landlord's request shall remove all signs,
advertising matters or decorations at its sole cost and expense and repair any
resulting damage to the Premises and the Building.

         19. INSOLVENCY AND LIENS.

                  19.1 INSOLVENCY. If Tenant becomes insolvent or voluntarily
bankrupt, or if a receiver, trustee or other liquidating officer is appointed
for the business of Tenant, Landlord at its option may terminate this Lease and
Tenant's right of possession under this Lease and in no event shall this Lease
or any rights or privileges hereunder be an asset of Tenant in any bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization proceeding, or Landlord may treat such insolvency
as a default under Section 21 of this Lease and invoke any and all remedies
available thereunder. In the event of an assumption or assignment by operation
of law under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any state bankruptcy or insolvency
law and Landlord elects not to terminate this Lease (or is otherwise prevented
from electing to terminate this Lease), the trustee in assuming this Lease or
any assignee thereof shall (a) remedy Tenant's prior default under this Lease,
(b) be bound by and assume all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, (c)
provide adequate assurances of future performance of all the terms, conditions
and covenants of this Lease, which shall include making the following express
covenants to the Landlord: (1) there is sufficient capital to pay all Rent due
under the Lease for the entire Lease Term, (2) assumption of the Lease by any
assignee will not cause Landlord to be in violation or breach of any provision
of any other lease, finance agreement, security instrument or operating
agreement concerning the Building or the Property, and (3) such assumption or
assignment by the assignee will not substantially disrupt or impair any existing
tenant mix or development plans for the Building or the Property.

                  19.2 LIENS. Tenants shall not permit any lien to be filed
against the Premises, the Building or the Property by reason of obligation
incurred by or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds
Landlords harmless from any liability from any such lien. If any lien is filed
against the Premises, the Building or the Property by any person claiming by,
through or under Tenant, Tenant shall upon request of Landlord, at Tenant's
expense, immediately cause such lien to be released; or, at Landlord's election,
furnish to Landlord a bond in form and in an amount of not less than One Hundred
Fifty Percent (150%) of said lien and issued by a surety satisfaction to
Landlord, indemnifying Landlord, the Building and the Property against all
liability, cost and expenses, including attorneys' fees, which Landlord may
incur as a result thereof. Provided that such bond has been furnished to
Landlord, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense and after written notice to
Landlord, may contest, by appropriate proceedings conducted in good faith and
with due diligence, any lien, encumbrance or charge against the Premises arising
from work done or materials provided to and for Tenant, if, and only if, such
proceedings suspend the collection thereof from Landlord, Tenant and the
Premises, and neither the Premises, the Building, the Property nor any part

         20. CONDEMNATION.

                  20.1 ENTIRE TAKING. If all of the Premises or the Building or
such portions of the Building as may be required for the reasonable use of the
Premises, are taken by eminent domain or conveyance in lieu thereof, this Lease
shall automatically terminate as of the date title vests in the condemning
authority and all Rent shall be paid to that date.

                  20.2 PARTIAL TAKING. In the event of a taking of a part of the
Building other than the Premises or of a portion of the Property, and if
Landlord determines that the Building should be restored in such a way as to
alter the Premises materially, Landlord may terminate this Lease and the term
and estate hereby granted by notifying Tenant of such termination within sixty
(60) days following the date of vesting of title; and this Lease and the term
and estate hereby granted shall expire on the date specified in the notice of
termination, not less than sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice, as
fully and completely as if such date were the date hereinbefore set forth for
the expiration of the Lease Term, and Rent hereunder shall be apportioned as of
such date. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 20.2, in case of
taking of a part of the Premises, or a portion of the Building or the Property
not required for the reasonable use of the Premises, then this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect and the Rent shall be equitably reduced based
on the proportion by which the net rentable area of the Premises is reduced (or
if one of the Premises is taken, based on the proportion by which the use of the
Premises is materially reduced), such Tent reduction to be effective as of the
date title to such portion vests in the condemning authority.

                  20.3 AWARDS AND DAMAGES. Landlord reserves all rights to
damages to the Premises for any partial or entire taking by eminent domain, and
Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any right Tenant may have to such damages or
award (except for Property of Tenant as defined in Section 7), and the Tenant
shall make no claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for damages for
termination of the leasehold interest. Tenant shall have the right however, to
claim and recover from the condemning authority compensation for any loss to
which Tenant may be put for Tenant's moving expenses, business interruption or
taking of Property of Tenant (not including Tenant's leasehold interest), but
only to the extent that such loss is awarded separately in the eminent domain
proceeding and not out of or as part of the damages recoverable by Landlord.

         21. DEFAULT; REMEDIES.

                  21.1 EVENTS OF Default. Each of the following shall be deemed

                           21.1.2 Failure by Tenant to perform or observe any of
the other terms, covenants. conditions, agreements or provisions of this Lease
if such failure shall continue for a period of fifteen (15) days after written
notice thereof has been given to Tenant; provided, however, that if any such
failure cannot reasonably be cured within such fifteen (15) day period, then
Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant commences to cure such
failure within a reasonable time not to exceed fifteen (15) days and for as long
as Tenant is diligently prosecuting the cure thereof up to a total of thirty
(30) days after the notice from Landlord has been given; or

                           21.1.3 Any misrepresentation or material omission of
information made by Tenant orally to Landlord or in any documents or other
materials provided by Tenant to Landlord in connection with this Lease; and

                           21.1.4 Any vacation or abandonment by Tenant of the
Premises. As used herein "vacation" shall mean a prolonged absence from the
Premises, and "abandonment" shall mean an absence from the Premises of five (5)
days or more while Tenant is in default.

                  21.2 LANDLORD REMEDIES FOR TENANT DEFAULT. If any default
occurs hereunder, Landlord may, at any time thereafter and without waiving any
other rights hereunder, do one or more of the following:

                           21.2.1 Landlord's Reentry. At its option, Landlord
may enter the Premises or any part thereof, with process of law, and expel,
remove or put out Tenant or any other persons who may be thereon, together with
all personal property found therein; and Landlord may terminate this Lease, or
it may from time to time, without terminating this Lease and as agent of Tenant,
relate the Premises or any part thereof for such term or upon such other terms
and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the
right to repair, renovate, remodel, redecorate, alter and change the Premises,
with Tenant remaining liable for any deficiency computed as hereinafter set
forth. In the case of any default reentry and /or disposition by summary
proceedings or otherwise, all Rent shall become due thereupon and be paid up to
the time of such reentry or dispossession together with such expenses as
Landlord may incur for attorneys' fees, advertising expenses, brokerage fees
and/ or putting the Premises in good order or preparing the same for re-rental,
together with interest thereon as provided in Section 21.5 hereof, accruing from
the date of any such expenditure by Landlord. No such reentry or taking
possession of the Premises shall be construed as an election on Landlord's part
to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to
Tenant.

the extent required by law. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any

               Between Yett Family Partnership, L.P. ("Landlord")
                        and Edgar Online, Inc. ("Tenant")

I. COMMENCEMENT AND EXPIRATION DATES; POSSESSION.

         A.COMMENCEMENT DATE. The Commencement Date shall be as provided in
Section 1.3 of the Lease, unless notice is given pursuant to this Exhibit C as
follows:

                  (1) If Landlord delivers to Tenant a notice at least fifteen
(15) days prior to the date upon which the Premises, together with the common
facilities for access and service thereto, shall be substantially completed,
then the Commencement Date shall be the date specified in such notice (which
shall not be prior to January 20, 2000, without Tenant's consent) or any earlier
date upon which Tenant occupies the Premises; and

                  (2) As used herein, "substantially completed" shall mean (i)
any Tenant Improvements to be installed by Landlord in the Premises pursuant to
this Exhibit C are completed, subject to punch list items, (ii) Tenant has
access to the Premises, and (iii) the cooling, heating and ventilation systems
servicing the Premises are operable. The determination when the Premises are
substantially completed shall be reasonably and exclusively made by Landlord's
architect. Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the Commencement
Date to occur by January 20, 2000.

         B.TENANT OBLIGATIONS. If the Tenant Improvements are not competed on
the Commencement Date due to the failure of Tenant to fulfill any obligations
pursuant to the terms of this Lease or any Exhibit hereto, including without
limitation Tenant's failure to substantially comply with any dates set forth in
this Exhibit C, the Lease shall be deemed to have commenced upon the date it
would have commenced but for Tenant's failure, which date shall be determined by
Landlord in its sole reasonable discretion and confirmed to Tenant in writing.

         C.TENANT TERMINATION RIGHTS. If the Commencement Date does not occur
within three (3) months following the date specified in Section 1.3, then Tenant
may terminate this Lease by written notice, except such three (3)-month period
at Landlord's sole option may be extended to a date not later than six(6)-months
from the Commencement Date specified in Section 1.3 for delays due to causes
beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. If the Commencement Date has not
occurred within such six (6)-month period at Tenant's option, this Lease shall
be deemed null and void and all rights and obligations of the parties shall
terminate. Termination under this Exhibit C shall be Tenant's sole remedy for
any failure or delay in delivering possession of the Premises or completion of
the Tenant Improvements and Tenant shall have no other rights or claims
hereunder at law or in equity.

II. The premises will be delivered in as-is condition, except that the Landlord
shall allow Tenant $5,000.00 to be used towards tenant improvements. Allowance
shall be due Tenant in the form of a credit and shall be due Tenant upon
Landlord's receipt of contractor's materialman's lien waiver. All tenant
improvements shall be subject to mutual acceptance by Landlord and Tenant.
