entry  in the  Premises,  Tenant  shall  furnish  to  Landlord  certificates  of

Occupancy Period shall comply with the requirements of Section 5 below. Tenant's
occupancy of the Premises during the Early Occupancy  Period shall be subject to

agrees,  subject  to the  last  sentence  of this  Section  1.3,  that  Tenant's
obligation  to pay Base Rent,  Operating  Cost Share Rent and Tax Share Rent (as
such terms are defined in Sections 2.1(a) through 2.1(c) below) during the Early
Occupancy Period shall be waived. In addition,  Tenant shall pay the cost of all

            (c) Beginning on the Rent Commencement Date, Tax Share Rent equal to

         2.2 Payment of Operating Cost Share Rent and Tax Share Rent.
             -------------------------------------------------------

            (a) Payment of Estimated Operating Cost Share Rent and Tax Share
                ------------------------------------------------------------
                Rent.
                ----

               (i) Before the Commencement Date and on or before April 1 of each
succeeding Fiscal Year, or as soon as reasonably possible  thereafter,  Landlord
shall give  Tenant  notice of  Landlord's  estimate  of the  payments to be made
pursuant to Sections 2.1(b) and 2.1(c) above for such Fiscal Year.  Landlord may
revise  these  estimates  by written  notice to Tenant  whenever it obtains more
accurate  information,  such as the final real estate tax assessment or tax rate
for the Project,  in which event subsequent  monthly payments by Tenant for such
Fiscal Year shall be based upon such revised estimate;  provided,  however, that
Landlord  may provide  such  revised  estimate no more than once in any calendar
year.

               (ii)  Within  ten (10) days  after  receiving  Landlord's  notice
regarding  the original or revised  estimate of the monthly  payments to be made
pursuant to  Sections  2.1(b) and 2.1(c)  above for a  particular  Fiscal  Year,
Tenant  shall pay  Landlord  an amount  equal to the  product of such  estimated
monthly payments (as set forth in Landlord's  notice),  multiplied by the number
of months that have  elapsed in the  applicable  Fiscal Year to the date of such
payment  including  the current  month,  minus any  payments on account  thereof
previously made by Tenant for the months elapsed. On the first day of each month
thereafter,  Tenant  shall pay Landlord the  estimated  monthly  payments as set
forth in Landlord's most recent notice, until a new estimate becomes applicable.

            (b)  Correction  of  Operating  Cost Share Rent and Tax Share  Rent.
                 --------------------------------------------------------------
Within one  hundred  fifty  (150) days after the close of each Fiscal Year or as
soon after such 150-day period as practicable,  Landlord shall deliver to Tenant
a statement of (i) Operating  Costs and Taxes for such Fiscal Year, and (ii) the
payments  made by Tenant  under  Section  2.2(a) above for such Fiscal Year (the
"Annual Expense  Statement").  If, on the basis of any Annual Expense Statement,
 -------------------------
Tenant owes an amount that is less than the estimated  payments  previously made
by Tenant for the  applicable  Fiscal Year,  Landlord,  at its  election,  shall
either promptly refund the amount of the overpayment to Tenant or, if this Lease
is still in effect,  credit such excess against Tenant's subsequent  obligations
to pay  Operating  Costs  and  Taxes.  If, on the  basis of any  Annual  Expense
Statement,  Tenant  owes an  amount  that is more  than the  estimated  payments
previously made by Tenant for the applicable  Fiscal Year,  Tenant shall pay the
deficiency to Landlord within twenty (20) days after Landlord's delivery of such
Annual Expense Statement to Tenant. The obligations of Landlord and Tenant under
this  Section to  promptly  refund any  overpayment  or pay any  deficiency,  as
appropriate, shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

         2.3 Definitions.
             -----------

            (a) Included Operating Costs.
                ------------------------

               (i) "Operating Costs" means any expenses, costs and disbursements
                    ---------------
of any kind other than Taxes,  paid or incurred by Landlord in  connection  with
the ownership, management,  maintenance,  operation and repair of the Project or
any part  thereof,

                                       3
<PAGE>

and of the personal property, trade fixtures, machinery,  equipment, systems and
apparatus used in connection therewith,  including,  without limitation, (1) all
costs to operate,  maintain, repair, replace,  supervise,  insure and administer
the common areas of the Project,  including,  without  limitation,  all costs of
resurfacing  and restriping the parking areas of the Project;  (2) all costs and
expenses  paid or  incurred  by Landlord in  connection  with the  obtaining  of
insurance on the Premises,  the Building  and/or the Project or any part thereof
or  interest  therein,  and any  deductibles  paid  under  policies  of any such
insurance;  (3) except for costs and expenses which are the sole  responsibility
of Tenant  pursuant  to Section  3.3(b)  below,  all costs paid or  incurred  by
Landlord to perform  Landlord's  Repair  Obligations  (as defined in pursuant to
Section 3.3(b) below),  (4) the cost of providing those services  required to be
furnished  by Landlord  under this Lease,  and (5) the cost of all  electricity,
water,  gas,  sewers,  oil  and  other  utilities  (collectively,  "Utilities"),
including any surcharges  imposed,  serving the Project or any part thereof (but
excluding  the cost of Utilities  directly  billed to Tenant or other tenants in
the  Project),  and any amounts,  taxes,  charges,  surcharges,  assessments  or
impositions levied, assessed or imposed upon the Project or any part thereof, or
upon  Tenant's  use and  occupancy  thereof,  as a result  of any  rationing  of
Utilities services or restriction on the use of Utilities  affecting the Project
or any part thereof.  Any Operating Costs that constitute  capital  expenditures
(collectively,  "Included  Capital Items") shall be amortized by Landlord,  with
interest,  over the estimated useful life of such item, and such amortized costs
shall be included in Operating Costs only for that portion of the useful life of
the Included  Capital  Item which falls within the Term,  unless the cost of the
Included Capital Item is less than Ten Thousand Dollars  ($10,000) in which case
it shall be expensed in the year in which it was incurred.

               (ii) If the  Building is occupied by more than one tenant,  then,
with respect to any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord to maintain,  repair
or replace  Systems or related  equipment that  exclusively  serve the Premises,
Tenant's Proportionate Share shall be deemed to be one hundred percent (100%).

               (iii) If the Project is not fully occupied  during any portion of
any Fiscal Year, Landlord may adjust (an "Equitable Adjustment") Operating Costs
                                          --------------------
to equal what would have been  incurred by Landlord  had the Project  been fully
occupied.  This Equitable  Adjustment  shall apply only to Operating Costs which
are variable  and  therefore  increase as  occupancy  of the Project  increases.
Landlord may incorporate the Equitable  Adjustment in its estimates of Operating
Costs.

               (iv)  If  any  tenant  of the  Project  contracts  directly  with
Landlord or a third party for any  Utilities  or services  for which Tenant pays
Landlord  pursuant to Section 2.1(b) above, the total costs of such Utilities or
services for the Project shall be "grossed up" to reflect what those costs would
have been had such  tenant(s)  not  directly  contracted  for such  Utilities or
services.

            (b) Excluded Operating Costs. Operating Costs shall not include:
                ------------------------

               (i) costs of  installing  leasehold  improvements  for tenants or
occupants or prospective tenants or occupants of the Project;

               (ii)  interest and  principal  payments on mortgages or any other
debt costs  (except as provided in Section  2.3(a) above with regard to Included
Capital Items), or rental payments on any ground lease of the Project;

               (iii) real estate brokers' leasing commissions;

               (iv) legal fees,  space  planner  fees and  advertising  expenses
incurred with regard to leasing the Project or portions thereof;

               (v) any cost or expenditure  for which Landlord is reimbursed (or
would have been reimbursed had Landlord  maintained the insurance required to be
maintained  by  Landlord  hereunder),  by  insurance  proceeds,  warranties,  or
otherwise, except by Operating Cost Share Rent;

               (vi) the  cost of any  service  furnished  to any  tenant  of the
Project which Landlord does not make available to Tenant;

               (vii) depreciation (except on any Included Capital Items);

               (viii) Operating Cost reserves;

               (ix) franchise or income taxes imposed upon  Landlord,  except to
the extent imposed in lieu of all or any part of Taxes;

               (x) costs of correcting  defects in  construction of the Building
(as opposed to the cost of normal repair,  maintenance and replacement  expected
with the construction materials and equipment installed in the Building in light
of their specifications);

               (xi) legal and auditing fees incurred for the benefit of Landlord
such as collecting  delinquent rents,  preparing tax returns and other financial
statements,  and  audits  other  than  those  incurred  in  connection  with the
preparation of reports required pursuant to Section 2.2 above;

               (xii) the wages of any employee for services not related directly
to the management, maintenance, operation and repair of the Project;

               (xiii)  fines,  penalties  and interest  incurred by Landlord for
late payment by Landlord or violations of law;

               (xiv) earthquake insurance  deductibles in excess of commercially
reasonable amounts (provided, however, that any earthquake insurance deductibles
included in Operating  Costs shall then be amortized  over the estimated  useful
life of the improvements constructed or restored with the deductible).

               (xv) any property  management  fee except as set forth in Section
2.1(b) above;

                                       5
<PAGE>

               (xvi) any costs  incurred in  connection  with any  contamination
existing on the Project as of Delivery Date or originating  from a source either
not located on the Project or which is caused or  contributed  by other  tenants
within the Project; and

               (xvii) any costs  incurred in  connection  with the repair of the
structural  parts of the  Building,  which  structural  parts  include  only the
foundation and  subflooring of the Building and the structural  condition of the
roof,  and the  exterior  walls of the  Buildings  (but  excluding  the interior
surfaces of exterior  walls and exterior and interior of all windows  (including
repairing,  resealing or replacing thereof) doors, ceiling and plateglass all of
which  shall be  maintained,  repaired  and/or  replaced  by Tenant  pursuant to
Section 3.3).

            (c) Taxes.
                -----

               (i) "Taxes" means any and all taxes,  assessments  and charges of
                    -----
any kind,  general or special,  ordinary or  extraordinary,  levied  against the
Project,  which Landlord shall pay or become obligated to pay in connection with
the  ownership,   leasing,  renting,  management,  use,  occupancy,  control  or
operation  of the  Project or of the  personal  property,  fixtures,  machinery,
equipment,  systems and  apparatus  used in  connection  therewith.  Taxes shall
include real estate taxes,  personal property taxes,  sewer rents,  water rents,
special or general  assessments,  transit taxes,  ad valorem taxes,  and any tax
levied on the rents  hereunder or the interest of Landlord under this Lease (the
"Rent Tax"). Taxes shall also include all fees and other costs and expenses paid
 --------
by Landlord in  reviewing  any Taxes and in seeking a refund or reduction of any
Taxes, whether or not the Landlord is ultimately successful;  provided, however,
that the amount  paid by Landlord  in any  calendar  year in seeking a refund or
reduction  of Taxes  shall not  exceed  the  greater  of (A)  $5,000.00,  or (B)
thirty-five  percent (35%) of the annual  savings  achieved  during that taxable
year as a result of such refund or  reassessment.  Taxes shall also  include any
assessments  or fees paid to any business  park owners  association,  or similar
entity,  which are  imposed  against  the  Project  pursuant  to any  Covenants,
Conditions  and  Restrictions  ("CC&R's")  recorded  against the Project and any
                                 ------
installments  of principal  and interest  required to pay any existing or future
general or special  assessments for public  improvements,  services or benefits,
and any increases  resulting from  reassessments  imposed in connection with any
change in ownership or new construction.

               (ii) Intentionally omitted.

               (iii) For any year,  the amount to be  included in Taxes (1) from
taxes  or  assessments  payable  in  installments,  shall be the  amount  of the
installments  (with any interest) due and payable during such year, and (2) from
all other Taxes, shall at Landlord's  election be the amount accrued,  assessed,
or  otherwise  imposed for such year or the amount due and payable in such year.
If Taxes for any period during the Term are increased  after payment thereof for
any reason, including,  without limitation,  error or reassessment by applicable
governmental  or  municipal  authorities,  and such  increase  results in Tenant
having  underpaid Tax Share Rent  hereunder,  then Tenant shall pay to Landlord,
within  thirty  (30)  days  after  demand,  the  amount  of  such  underpayment.
Similarly,  if Taxes for any period during the Term are decreased  after payment
thereof for any reason,  and such decrease results in Tenant having overpaid Tax
Share Rent  hereunder,  then Landlord  shall return to Tenant the amount of such

                                       6
<PAGE>

overpayment   within  thirty  (30)  days  after   Landlord's   receipt  of  such
overpayment.  The  obligations  of  Landlord  and Tenant  under this  Section to
promptly  refund any overpayment or pay any  deficiency,  as appropriate,  shall
survive the  expiration or earlier  termination  of this Lease.  Taxes shall not
include any net income (except Rent Tax), capital, stock, succession,  transfer,
franchise,  gift,  estate or inheritance tax, except to the extent that such tax
shall be imposed in lieu of any portion of Taxes.

               (iv)  Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary set forth in this
Lease, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes payable
by Landlord (other than net income taxes) whether or not now customary or within
the  contemplation  of the  parties  hereto:  (1) imposed  upon,  measured by or
reasonably  attributable to the cost or value of Tenant's equipment,  furniture,
trade  fixtures and other  personal  property  located in the Premises or by the
cost or value of any leasehold improvements made in or to the Premises by or for
Tenant,  other than  Building-standard  improvements  made by Landlord,  if any,
regardless of whether title to such improvements shall be in Tenant or Landlord;
(2)  imposed  upon or measured by the Base Rent  payable  hereunder,  including,
without  limitation,  any gross  income  tax or excise tax levied by the city or
county in which the Project is  located,  the  federal  government  or any other
governmental  body with respect to the receipt of such rental;  (3) imposed upon
or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management,  maintenance,
alteration,  repair,  use or  occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion
thereof; or (4) imposed upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is
a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.

            (d) Intentionally omitted.

            (e) Fiscal Year. "Fiscal Year" means each calendar year during which
                -----------   ------------
any  portion  of the Term  occurs  (e.g.,  the first  Fiscal  Year  shall be the
                                    ----
calendar year during which the Commencement Date occurs).

         2.4 Computation of Base Rent and Rent Adjustments.
             ---------------------------------------------

            (a) Prorations.  If (i) the  Commencement  Date is a date other than
                ----------
January 1, (ii) the  Termination  Date is a date other than  December  31, (iii)
this Lease  terminates  early,  or (iv) the size of the  Premises  increases  or
decreases, then in each such event, the Base Rent, the Operating Cost Share Rent
and Tax Share Rent shall be equitably  adjusted to reflect such event on a basis
determined  by Landlord to be  consistent  with the  principles  underlying  the
provisions of this Section 2.

            (b) Interest Rate. Any sum due from Tenant to Landlord not paid when
                -------------
due shall bear  interest  from the date due until paid at the lesser of eighteen
percent  (18%) per annum or the maximum  rate  permitted  by law (the  "Interest
                                                                        --------
Rate").
----

            (c) Rent  Adjustments.  The square  footage of the  Premises and the
                -----------------
Building set forth in the Schedule  are deemed to be the actual  square  footage
thereof,  provided  that the  rentable  square  footage of the  Premises and the
Building may subsequently  change after the date of this Lease commensurate with
any  modifications  to  the  Building  by  Landlord,  in  which  event  Tenant's
Proportionate Share shall change  accordingly;  and provided further that

                                       7
<PAGE>

Tenant shall have the one-time  right to cause the Premises to be  remeasured by
an architect  reasonably  acceptable to Landlord and Tenant pursuant to the most
recent BOMA standards, in which event Base Rent and Tenant's Proportionate Share
shall change accordingly.  If any Operating Cost paid in one Fiscal Year relates
to more  than one  Fiscal  Year,  Landlord  may  proportionately  allocate  such
Operating Cost among the related Fiscal Years.

            (d) Books and Records.  Landlord  shall  maintain  books and records
                -----------------
reflecting the Operating Costs and Taxes in accordance with sound accounting and
management  practices.  Tenant and a certified public  accountant  employed by a
certified  public  accounting  firm and working on a  non-contingency  fee basis
shall have the right to inspect  Landlord's  records  at  Landlord's  applicable
local office or other location  designated by Landlord upon at least seventy-two
(72) hours' prior notice  during  normal  business  hours during the ninety (90)
days following  Landlord's  delivery of the Annual Expense  Statement to Tenant.
The results of any such inspection shall be kept strictly confidential by Tenant
and its agents,  and Tenant and its certified  public  accountant must agree, in
their contract for such services, to such confidentiality restrictions and shall
specifically  agree that the results  shall not be made  available  to any other
tenant of the Project (and in connection with the foregoing, prior to exercising
its  rights  hereunder,  Tenant  and its  agents  shall  sign a  confidentiality
agreement  acceptable to Landlord).  Unless Tenant sends to Landlord any written
exception  to an Annual  Expense  Statement  within said ninety (90) day period,
such Annual Expense  Statement  shall be deemed final and accepted by Tenant and
Tenant waives any other rights pursuant to applicable law to inspect  Landlord's
books and records  and/or to contest the amount of Operating  Costs and/or Taxes
due hereunder. Tenant shall pay the amount shown on any Annual Expense Statement
in the manner  prescribed  in this Lease,  whether or not Tenant  takes any such
written  exception,  without any prejudice to such exception.  If Tenant makes a
timely  exception,   Landlord  shall  cause  an  independent   certified  public
accountant  or  another  firm  with at least  five (5)  years of  experience  in
auditing the books and records of  commercial  projects  and that is  reasonably
acceptable to Landlord and Tenant to issue a final and conclusive  resolution of
Tenant's  exception.  Tenant  shall  pay the cost of such  certification  unless
Landlord's original determination of annual Operating Costs and Taxes overstated
the amounts thereof, in the aggregate,  by more than five percent (5%), in which
case Landlord shall pay for the costs of such certification.

            (e) Miscellaneous. So long as Tenant is in default of any obligation
                -------------
under this Lease,  Tenant shall not be entitled to any refund of any amount from
Landlord.  If this  Lease is  terminated  for any  reason  prior  to the  annual
determination of Operating Cost Share Rent or Tax Share Rent, either party shall
pay the full amount due to the other within  fifteen (15) days after  Landlord's
notice to Tenant of the amount when it is determined. Landlord may commingle any
payments  made with  respect to  Operating  Cost Share Rent and Tax Share  Rent,
without payment of interest.

      3. PREPARATION AND CONDITION OF PREMISES; TENANT'S POSSESSION; REPAIRS AND
         -----------------------------------------------------------------------
MAINTENANCE.
-----------

         3.1 Condition of Premises.
             ---------------------

            (a) Except for  Landlord's  Work (as  defined  below),  Landlord  is
leasing  the  Premises  to Tenant  "as is",  without  any  obligation  to alter,
remodel,  improve,  repair  or  decorate  any  part of the  Premises;  provided,
however,  that if the  roof,  HVAC,  plumbing  and  electrical  systems  for the
Premises are not in good working order as of the Delivery Date, then, so long as
such problems are noted in writing to Landlord within the thirty (30) day period
immediately  following the Commencement Date, Landlord promptly shall repair any
such  problems  at no cost to  Tenant.  Except as set  forth in the  immediately
preceding  sentence and in Section  7.1(a) below,  Landlord  makes no express or
implied   representations  or  warranties  of  any  kind,   including,   without
limitation,  any  representation  or warranty  regarding  the  condition  of the
Premises, the Building or the Project or the suitability of any of the foregoing
for  the  conduct  of  Tenant's  business.  As  used in  this  Lease,  the  term
"Landlord's Work" means (i) the repair of the roll-up door of the Premises,  and
 ---------------
(ii) the  repair of the leak in the  ceiling  in that  portion  of the  Premises
between the first and second floors of the Building,  and the replacement of the
ceiling tiles stained by said leak.  Landlord shall perform  Landlord's Work, at
no cost to Tenant,  within  thirty  (30) days after the full  execution  of this
Lease or as soon after said thirty (30) day period as is reasonably practicable.

            (b)  Tenant,  at  its  sole  cost  and  expense,   shall  make  such
alterations  that Landlord deems  reasonably  necessary or appropriate to demise
the Premises ("Tenant's Work"). Tenant shall perform Tenant's Work within thirty
               -------------
(30) days after the full  execution  of this Lease or as soon after said  thirty
(30) day period as is  reasonably  practicable.  Tenant's Work shall comply with
the requirements of Section 5 below. In performing  Landlord's Work and Tenant's
Work,  Landlord and Tenant shall  exercise  commercially  reasonable  efforts to
minimize interference with the Work of the other party.

         3.2  Tenant's  Possession.  Subject to Section 3.1 and  Section  7.1(a)
              --------------------
below,  Tenant's  taking  possession  of any  portion of the  Premises  shall be
conclusive evidence that the Premises were in good order, repair and condition.

         3.3 Repairs and Maintenance.
             -----------------------

            (a) Tenant's Obligations.
                --------------------

               (i) Except to the extent  expressly  Landlord's  obligation under

sole cost and  expense,  (1) keep and  maintain  the  Premises in good order and
condition,   and  repair  and  replace  every  part  thereof  ("Tenant's  Repair
                                                                ----------------

limitation,  any specialty or supplemental  Building Systems installed by or for
Tenant and all heating,  ventilating and air  conditioning  ("HVAC") systems and
                                                              ----

fixtures,  lamps, fans and any exhaust equipment and systems,  electrical motors
and all other appliances and equipment of every kind and nature located in, upon
or about the Premises;  (E) all communications systems serving the Premises; (F)
all of  Tenant's  security  systems in or about or  serving  the  Premises;  (G)

Tenant in writing of its  intention  to no longer  arrange for such  monitoring,
cause  the  fire  alarm  systems  serving  the  Premises  to be  monitored  by a
monitoring or protective services firm approved by Landlord in writing.

               (ii) Tenant shall also be responsible for all pest control within
the Premises,  and for all trash  removal and disposal  from the Premises.  With
respect to any HVAC  systems and  equipment  exclusively  serving the  Premises,
Tenant shall obtain HVAC systems preventive maintenance contracts with bimonthly

be subject to the reasonable  prior written approval of Landlord and paid for by
Tenant, and which shall provide for and include  replacement of filters,  oiling
and lubricating of machinery, parts replacement,  adjustment of drive belts, oil
changes and other preventive  maintenance,  including annual maintenance of duct
work,  interior unit drains and caulking of sheet metal, and recaulking of jacks
and vents on an annual  basis.  Tenant shall have the benefit of all  warranties
available to Landlord regarding the HVAC systems and equipment.

               (iii) Tenant's  repair,  maintenance and replacement  obligations
shall be performed  under the  supervision  and subject to the prior approval of
Landlord,  and within  any  reasonable  period of time  specified  by  Landlord;
provided,   however,  that  (1)  with  respect  to  the  Building  Systems  that
exclusively serve the Premises, Landlord may elect to perform all or some of the
foregoing maintenance,  repairs and replacement itself, at Tenant's expense, and
(2) if  Tenant  fails to  perform  Tenant's  Repair  Obligations,  Landlord  may
immediately  perform  any such work at  Tenant's  expense.  Tenant  shall pay to
Landlord all costs and expenses  incurred by Landlord and required to be paid by
Tenant  under this  Section  3.3(a)  within  ten (10) days  after  receipt of an
invoice therefor.

            (b) Landlord's Obligations.
                ----------------------

               (i) Subject to the  provisions  of Sections 3.1, 9 and 10 hereof,
Landlord shall  maintain,  repair and replace the following  items  ("Landlord's
                                                                      ----------
Repair  Obligations"):  (1)  the  non-structural  portions  of the  roof  of the
-------------------
Building,  including  the roof  coverings  (provided  that  Tenant  installs  no
additional air conditioning or other equipment on the roof that damages the roof
coverings, in which event Tenant shall pay all costs resulting from the presence
of  such  additional  equipment);  (2)  the  HVAC,  plumbing,  sewer,  drainage,
electrical,  fire  protection,  elevator,  escalator,  life safety and  security
systems  and  equipment  and other  mechanical,  electrical  and  communications
systems  and  equipment  (collectively,  the  "Building  Systems")  serving  the
                                               -----------------
Premises,   the  Building  and/or  the  Project,   excluding  any  specialty  or
supplemental  Building Systems installed by or for Tenant and also excluding the
Building

                                       10
<PAGE>

Systems  (or  portions  of the  Building  Systems)  that  exclusively  serve the
Premises;  and (3) the  parking  areas of the  Project,  pavement,  landscaping,
sprinkler  systems,  sidewalks,  driveways,  curbs,  and lighting systems in the
common areas of the Project.  Landlord's  Repair  Obligations  also includes the
routine  repair and  maintenance  of the load bearing and exterior  walls of the
Building,  including,  without limitation,  any painting,  sealing, patching and
waterproofing of such walls.  Landlord shall make reasonable  efforts to provide
to  Tenant,  upon  Tenant's  request,  copies of all  warranties  applicable  to
Landlord's Repair  Obligations,  and shall use commercially  reasonable  efforts
(other than the  commencement  of any  litigation)  to enforce the terms of such
warranties  to the extent the same may serve to reduce  Tenant's  obligation  to
reimburse Landlord for costs and expenses related thereto.

               (ii) Subject to the  provisions of Sections 3.1, 9 and 10 hereof,
Landlord,  at its own cost and  expense,  agrees  to  repair  and  maintain  the
structural portions of the roof (specifically excluding the roof coverings), the
foundation,  the  footings,  the  floor  slab,  and the load  bearing  walls and
exterior walls of the Building (excluding any glass and any routine maintenance,
including, without limitation, any painting, sealing, patching and waterproofing
of such walls); provided, however, that subject to the provisions of Section 8.6
below,  any damage  arising  from the acts of Tenant or any Tenant  Parties  (as
defined in Section  8.2(a) below) shall be repaired by Landlord at Tenant's sole
expense,  and Tenant  shall pay to Landlord  all costs and  expenses of any such
repair within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice therefor.  Landlord may,
but shall not be required to, enter the Premises at all reasonable times to make
such repairs,  alterations,  improvements or additions to the Premises or to the
Building or to any equipment located in the Building as Landlord shall desire or
deem  necessary  or as  Landlord  may  be  required  to do  by  governmental  or
quasi-governmental  authority or court order or decree.  The cost of any repairs
made by Landlord on account of Tenant's default,  or on account of the misuse or
neglect  by  Tenant  or  any  Tenant  Parties  anywhere  in the  Project,  shall
constitute  Additional Rent payable by Tenant within ten (10) days after receipt
of an invoice therefor. As a condition precedent to all of Landlord's repair and
maintenance  obligations under this Lease, Tenant must have notified Landlord of
the need of such repairs or maintenance;  provided that any  notification  shall
not affect Landlord's  obligation to perform routine periodic maintenance (e.g.,
landscape maintenance) during the Lease Term.

               (iii) Tenant  hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits
of  subsection 1 of Section 1932 and  Sections  1941 and 1942 of the  California
Civil Code and any  similar  or  successor  law,  statute  or  ordinance  now or
hereafter in effect regarding Tenant's right to make repairs and deduct the cost
of such repairs from the Rent due under this Lease.

      4. SERVICES AND  UTILITIES.  Tenant shall promptly pay, as the same become
         -----------------------
due, all charges for water, gas, electricity,  telephone,  sewer service,  waste
pick-up and any other utilities, materials and services furnished directly to or
used by Tenant on or about the  Premises  during  the Term,  including,  without
limitation, (a) meter, use and/or connection fees, hook-up fees, or standby fees
(excluding  any  connection  fees or  hook-up  fees  which  relate to making the
existing  electrical,  gas, water and sewer service available to the Premises as
of the Delivery Date), and (b) penalties for discontinued  interrupted  service.
If any utility  service is not separately  metered to the Premises,  then Tenant
shall pay its pro rata share of the cost of such utility service with all others
served  by  the  service  not  separately  metered.  However,  (i)  if  Landlord
reasonably  determines  that  Tenant is using a  disproportionate  amount of any
utility

                                       11
<PAGE>

service (whether or not separately metered), then Landlord, at its election, may
(1)  periodically  charge Tenant,  as Additional Rent, a sum equal to Landlord's
reasonable  estimate of the cost of Tenant's excess use of such utility service,
and/or (2) install, at Tenant's expense, a separate meter to measure the utility
service  supplied to the Premises,  and (ii) if Landlord  reasonably  determines
that  Tenant  is  using a  disproportionate  share  of the  electrical  capacity
available for the Building or Project (i.e.,  electrical usage in excess of that
which would typically be used for general office purposes), then, in addition to
the foregoing,  Landlord may install, at Tenant's expense,  additional equipment
to increase the electrical capacity for the Building or Project to offset excess
electrical usage by Tenant. Any interruption or cessation of utilities resulting
from any causes, including any entry for repairs pursuant to this Lease, and any
renovation, redecoration or rehabilitation of any area of the Project, shall not
render  Landlord  liable  for  damages  to  either  person  or  property  or for
interruption  or loss to Tenant's  business,  nor be construed as an eviction of
Tenant,  nor work an abatement of any portion of Rent,  nor relieve  Tenant from
fulfillment of any covenant or agreement hereof; provided,  however, that if (A)
an  interruption  of utilities  prevents Tenant from occupying all or a material
portion of the Premises for the  Permitted Use for a period of at least ten (10)
consecutive  business days and (B) such interruption was caused by the negligent
act  or  omission  of  Landlord,   then  monthly   Rent  shall   thereafter   be
proportionately  abated during the period of such interruption.  Nothing in this
Section 4 shall  limit the  parties'  rights  and  obligations  under  Section 9
hereof,  in the event of a casualty  affecting the Building or Premises.  Tenant
acknowledges and agrees that,  notwithstanding  the later occurrence of the Rent
Commencement Date,  Tenant's  obligations under this Section 4 shall commence as
of the Commencement Date.

      5. ALTERATIONS AND REPAIRS.
         -----------------------

         5.1 Landlord's Consent and Conditions.
             ---------------------------------

            (a) Except for Minor  Alterations (as defined  below),  Tenant shall
not make any  improvements  or alterations  to the Premises (the  "Alterations")
                                                                   -----------
without in each instance submitting plans and specifications for the Alterations
to Landlord and obtaining  Landlord's  prior  written  consent.  Landlord  shall
provide or withhold its consent  within ten (10) business days after  Landlord's
receipt of the plans and specifications;  provided,  however, that if the nature
of the Alterations is such that Landlord requires additional time to review such
plans  and  specifications,  then  the ten (10)  business  day  period  shall be
extended to such longer period as is reasonably necessary to complete Landlord's
review.  Tenant shall pay  Landlord's  actual  out-of-pocket  costs incurred for
review of all of the plans and all other  items  submitted  by Tenant.  Landlord
will be  deemed to be acting  reasonably  in  withholding  its  consent  for any
Alterations  which (i) impacts the base  structural  components  or the Building
Systems,  (ii) are visible from outside the Premises or (iii)  impacts any other
tenant's premises.

            As part of the  Alterations,  Landlord  agrees that Tenant  shall be
entitled to  construct  exterior  equipment  pads  located  outside the Building
leased by Tenant hereunder and one or more exterior chemical storage facilities,
provided that Tenant shall first submit to Landlord the proposed  plans for such
Alterations  and obtain  Landlord's  written  approval  of such  plans  prior to
commencing such  Alterations.  Landlord reserves the right to require Tenant, at
its sole cost and expense, to remove such exterior  Alterations upon termination
or expiration of this Lease.  Tenant  agrees and  acknowledges  that any parking
spaces  which may be taken by Tenant

                                       12
<PAGE>

in  connection  with the  construction  and  installation  of such pads shall be
deducted from Tenant's parking spaces as set forth in the Schedule.

            (b) Landlord's approval shall not be required for Alterations on the
interior  of  the  Premises  costing  less  than  Twenty-Five  Thousand  Dollars
($25,000.00) per project ("Minor Alterations"), provided that (i) Landlord would
                           -----------------
not have the right to reasonably withhold consent to the Alterations pursuant to
clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 5.1(a) above and such  Alterations  are not
visible  from  outside the  Premises;  and (ii) Tenant  provides  Landlord  with
written  notice of such  Minor  Alteration,  which  shall  include a copy of any
governmental  permits  required  to  complete  such Minor  Alteration,  prior to
commencing construction of such Minor Alteration.

            (c) Tenant shall pay for the cost of all Alterations,  including the
cost of any and all  approvals,  permits,  fees and other  charges  which may be
required as a condition of performing such Alterations.

            (d) The following requirements shall apply to all Alterations:

               (i) At least seven (7) days  before  beginning  any  Alterations,
Tenant shall furnish to Landlord (1) written notice of the expected commencement
date of the  Alterations  to  permit  Landlord  to post and  record a notice  of
nonresponsibility,   (2)  building   permits,   (3)  certificates  of  insurance
satisfactory  to  Landlord,  and,  (4) at  Landlord's  request  with  respect to
Alterations in excess of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00), security for
payment of all costs.

               (ii)  Tenant  shall  not  take any  action  which  would  violate
Landlord's  labor  contracts  or which would cause a work  stoppage,  picketing,
labor disruption or dispute,  or interfere with Landlord's or any other tenant's
or occupant's  business or with the rights and privileges of any person lawfully
in the Building ("Labor  Disturbance").  Tenant shall take the actions necessary
                  ------------------
to resolve any Labor  Disturbance,  and shall have  pickets  removed and, at the
request of Landlord,  immediately  terminate  any work in the Premises that gave
rise to the Labor Disturbance,  until Landlord gives its written consent for the
work to resume.  Tenant shall have no claim for damages against  Landlord or any
of the Landlord Parties as a result of the above actions.

               (iii)  The   Alterations   shall  be  performed  in  a  good  and
workmanlike  manner,  meeting  the  standard  for  construction  and  quality of
materials in the Building,  and shall comply with all insurance requirements and
all  applicable  laws,  ordinances,  regulations or  requirements  of the United
States of America,  the State of California,  or the ordinances,  regulations or
requirements  of the local  municipal or county  governing  body or other lawful
authorities having jurisdiction over the Project, including, without limitation,
any such laws,  ordinances,  regulations or  requirements  relating to hazardous
materials or  substances,  as those terms are defined by applicable  laws now or
hereafter in effect (collectively, "Governmental Requirements").
                                    -------------------------

<PAGE>

               (iv) Tenant shall  perform all  Alterations  so as to minimize or
prevent disruption to other tenants, and Tenant shall comply with all reasonable
requests of Landlord in response to complaints from other tenants.

               (v) Tenant shall perform all  Alterations in compliance  with any
"Policies,  Rules and  Procedures  for  Construction  Projects"  which may be in
effect at the time the Alterations is performed.

               (vi) All  Alterations  shall be performed  only by contractors or
mechanics  approved  by  Landlord,  which  approval  shall  not be  unreasonably
withheld,  conditioned or delayed; provided,  however, that (1) Landlord may, in
its   reasonable   discretion,    specify   engineers,    general   contractors,
subcontractors,  and architects to perform work affecting the Building  Systems;
and  (2) if  Landlord  consents  to any  Alterations  that  requires  work to be
performed  outside  the  Premises,  Landlord  may elect to perform  such work at
Tenant's reasonable expense.

               (vii) Tenant shall permit Landlord to supervise all  Alterations,
including,  without limitation, the right (but not an obligation) to inspect the
construction  work during the progress  thereof,  and to require  corrections of
faulty   construction  or  any  material  deviation  from  the  plans  for  such
Alterations as approved by Landlord;  provided, however, that no such inspection
shall be deemed to create any liability on the part of Landlord, or constitute a
representation  by Landlord or any person hired to perform such  inspection that
the work so inspected conforms with such plans or complies with any Governmental
Requirements, and no such inspection shall give rise to a waiver of, or estoppel
with respect to, Landlord's continuing right at any time or from time to time to
require the  correction of any faulty work or any material  deviation  from such
plans.

               (viii) If Tenant requests that Landlord  manage any  Alterations,
then Landlord may charge a  supervisory  fee not to exceed three percent (3%) of
labor,  material,  and all other costs of the Alterations to compensate Landlord
for its management and supervision of the progress of the work.

               (ix)  Upon   completion,   Tenant  shall  furnish  Landlord  with
contractor's  affidavits and full and final statutory waivers of liens, as-built
plans and specifications,  and receipted bills covering all labor and materials,
and all other close-out documentation related to the Alterations,  including any
other  information  required  under  any  "Policies,  Rules and  Procedures  for
Construction Projects" which may be in effect at the time.

         5.2 No Liens.  Tenant has no  authority  to cause or permit any lien or
             --------
encumbrance of any kind to affect Landlord's  interest in the Project;  any such
lien or  encumbrance  shall attach to Tenant's  interest only. If any mechanic's
lien  shall be filed or claim of lien made for work or  materials  furnished  to
Tenant,  then Tenant shall at its expense within ten (10) days thereafter either
discharge  or contest the lien or claim.  If Tenant  contests the lien or claim,
then Tenant shall (a) within such ten (10) day period, provide Landlord adequate
security  for the lien or claim,  (b) contest the lien or claim in good faith by
appropriate  proceedings  that  operate  to stay  its  enforcement,  and (c) pay
promptly any final adverse judgment  entered in any such  proceeding.  If Tenant
does not comply with these  requirements,

                                       14
<PAGE>

Landlord  may  discharge  the lien or claim,  and the  amount  paid,  as well as
attorney's  fees and other  expenses  incurred  by  Landlord,  shall  constitute
Additional Rent payable by Tenant on demand.

         5.3  Ownership  of  Improvements.  All  Alterations  as defined in this
              ---------------------------
Section 5, partitions, hardware, equipment, machinery and all other improvements
and all fixtures,  except trade fixtures (which shall remain Tenant's property),
constructed  in the  Premises  by either  Landlord or Tenant,  (a) shall  become
Landlord's  property upon installation  without  compensation to Tenant,  unless
Landlord  consents  otherwise in writing,  and (b) shall,  at Landlord's  option
(which  shall be  stated at the time  Landlord  consents  to such  Alterations),
either (i) be  surrendered  to Landlord with the Premises at the  termination of
this Lease or of Tenant's right to possession,  or (ii) be removed in accordance
with  Section 14 below.  Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary  herein,  the
parties  acknowledge  and agree that  Tenant's  anechoic  chamber  shall  remain
Tenant's  property  and be treated  herein as a trade  fixture,  which  shall be
removed (and any damage caused  thereby shall be repaired) at Tenant's sole cost
and expense upon the expiration or termination of this Lease.

      6. USE OF PREMISES.
         ---------------

         6.1  Limitation  on Use.  Tenant  shall use the  Premises  only for the
              ------------------
Permitted  Use stated in the  Schedule  and  Tenant  shall not use or permit the
Premises or the Project to be used for any other purpose or purposes  whatsoever
without  the  prior  written  consent  of  Landlord,  which may be  withheld  in
Landlord's sole discretion. Tenant shall not allow any use of the Premises which
will  negatively  affect the cost of coverage  of  Landlord's  insurance  on the
Project,  unless  Tenant pays any  additional  premiums as a result of such use.
Tenant shall not allow any  inflammable or explosive  liquids or materials to be
kept on the Premises, other than those materials that are necessary for Tenant's
Permitted  Use under this Lease;  provided  that such  materials  are handled in
strict accordance with all applicable  Governmental  Requirements.  Tenant shall
not allow any use of the Premises  which would cause the value or utility of any
part of the  Premises to diminish or would  interfere  with any other  tenant or
with the  operation  of the  Project by  Landlord.  Tenant  shall not permit any
nuisance or waste upon the Premises,  or allow any offensive noise or odor in or
around the  Project.  At the end of each  business  day, or more  frequently  if
necessary,  Tenant  shall  deposit all garbage  and other trash  (excluding  any
inflammable,  explosive and/or hazardous  materials) in trash bins or containers
approved by Landlord in locations  designated  by Landlord from time to time. If
any  governmental  authority  shall deem the  Premises  to be a "place of public
accommodation"  under the Americans with  Disabilities  Act ("ADA") or any other
                                                              ---
comparable  law as a result of Tenant's  particular  use,  Tenant  shall  either
modify  its use to  cause  such  authority  to  rescind  its  designation  or be
responsible for any alterations, structural or otherwise, required to be made to
the Building or the Premises under such laws.

         6.2  Signs. Tenant  shall not place on any portion of the  Premises any
              -----
sign, placard,  lettering,  banner,  displays,  graphic, or other advertising or
communicative  material  which is  visible  from the  exterior  of the  Premises
without Landlord's prior written approval;  provided,  however,  that (i) Tenant
shall be  entitled,  on a  non-exclusive  and  proportionate  basis,  to  tenant
identification  signage on the monument serving the Building and on the crown of
the portion of the Building facing Highway 101 ("Building Signage"), except that
                                                 ----------------
so long as the

                                       15
<PAGE>

Premises  contains at least 74,979 rentable  square feet,  Tenant shall have the
sole right, on an exclusive basis, to the Building Signage;  and (ii) so long as
the Premises  contain at least  74,979  rentable  square  feet,  Tenant shall be
entitled, on a non-exclusive basis, to place Tenant's corporate name on doorways
to the Premises.  The material,  typeface,  graphic  format and  proportions  of
Tenant's signs, as well as the precise location of such signs,  shall be subject
to Landlord's approval,  which shall not be unreasonably  withheld. Any approved
signs  shall  strictly  conform  to all  Governmental  Requirements,  any CC&R's
recorded against the Project,  and Landlord's signage standards in effect at the
time,  and shall be installed and removed at Tenant's  expense.  Tenant,  at its
sole expense,  shall maintain such signs in good condition and repair during the
Term.  Prior to the expiration or earlier  termination of this Lease,  Tenant at
its sole cost shall  remove all of its  exterior  signage and repair any and all
damage  caused  to  the  Building  and/or  Project   (including  and  fading  or
discoloration)  by such signs and/or the removal of such signs from the Building
and/or Project.

         6.3 Parking.  Tenant shall have the non-exclusive  right to park in the
             -------
Project's  parking  facilities  in common with other tenants of the Project upon
terms and  conditions,  as may from  time to time be  established  by  Landlord.
Tenant agrees not to overburden the parking  facilities (i.e., use more than the
                                                         ---
number of  unassigned  parking  stalls  indicated on the Schedule) and agrees to
cooperate  with  Landlord  and other  tenants  in the  Project in the use of the
parking  facilities.  Landlord reserves the right in its discretion to determine
whether the parking  facilities are becoming  crowded and to allocate and assign
parking  passes among Tenant and the other tenants in the Project.  Tenant's use
of the parking  facilities  shall be at no charge,  provided that Landlord shall
have the right to charge  Tenant the portion that  Landlord  deems  allocable to
Tenant of any charges (e.g.,  fees or taxes) imposed by the Regional Air Quality
                       ----
Control Board or other governmental or  quasi-governmental  agency in connection
with the parking  facilities  (e.g.,  in connection with operation or use of the
                               ----
parking  facilities).  Landlord  shall not be liable to  Tenant,  nor shall this
Lease be affected,  if any parking is impaired by (or if any parking charges are
imposed as a result of) any moratorium,  initiative, referendum, law, ordinance,
regulation   or  order   passed,   issued  or  made  by  any   governmental   or
quasi-governmental  body.  Tenant shall abide by all rules and regulations which
are  prescribed  from  time to time  for the  orderly  operation  and use of the
parking facility where the parking passes are located,  including any sticker or
other  identification  system  established by Landlord,  and cooperate in seeing
that   Tenant's   employees  and  visitors  also  comply  with  such  rules  and
regulations.  Landlord  specifically  reserves  the  right to  change  the size,
configuration,  design,  layout  and all other  aspects of the  Project  parking
facility  at any time and Tenant  acknowledges  and agrees  that  Landlord  may,
without  incurring  any  liability  to Tenant and without any  abatement of Rent
under this Lease, from time to time, close-off or restrict access to the Project
parking  facility for a reasonable  period of time for purposes of permitting or
facilitating  any  such  construction,  alteration  or  improvements;  provided,
however,  that Landlord shall locate and secure alternate  parking  arrangements
for Tenant  within  walking  distance of the  Building or  otherwise  reasonably
acceptable to Tenant. Landlord may delegate its responsibilities  hereunder to a
parking  operator in which case such parking  operator shall have all the rights
of control  attributed  hereby to the Landlord;  provided,  however,  that in no
event shall  Tenant be required to pay for its  parking  rights  hereunder.  The
parking  rights  granted to Tenant  pursuant to this Section 6.3 are provided to
Tenant  solely for use by  Tenant's  own  personnel  and such  rights may not be
transferred,  assigned,  subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant separate and
apart from

                                       16
<PAGE>

a Transfer  of this Lease  pursuant  to  Section  17 below.  Landlord  shall not
oversubscribe parking rights in the Project's parking facility.

         6.4 Prohibition  Against Use of Roof and Structure of Building.  Tenant
             ----------------------------------------------------------
shall be prohibited from using all or any portion of the roof of the Building or
any portion of the  structure of the Building  during the Term of this Lease (or
any extensions  thereof) for any purposes  (including without limitation for the
installation,   maintenance   and  repair  of  a  satellite  dish  and/or  other
telecommunications  equipment),  without Landlord's prior written consent, which
Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion,  subject, however, to
the applicable provisions of this Lease, including, without limitation,  Section
31 and Exhibit B-1.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  Landlord shall grant Tenant
       -----------
with  reasonable  access  to the  roof  of  the  Building  as may be  reasonably
necessary to allow Tenant to perform its HVAC and other maintenance  obligations
hereunder,  provided that such access shall be subject to any  reasonable  rules
and  restrictions  that  Landlord may impose from time to time.  Nothing  herein
shall  limit or restrict  Landlord's  rights  under  Section  11.13,  or require
Landlord to obtain Tenant's consent prior to exercising such rights.

      7. GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENTS AND BUILDING RULES.
         --------------------------------------------

         7.1 Compliance in Premises.
             ----------------------

            (a) Landlord's  Responsibilities.  As of the Commencement  Date, the
                ----------------------------
Premises shall comply in all material respects with all applicable  Governmental
Requirements  (as interpreted by applicable  governmental or  quasi-governmental
authorities as of the Commencement Date),  without regard to any specific use of
the  Premises by Tenant,  and without  regard to Tenant's  Work.  If Landlord or
Tenant  receives  written  notice from any  governmental  or  quasi-governmental
authority that any portion of the Premises violated Governmental Requirements as
of the  Commencement  Date,  Landlord  shall not be  liable  to  Tenant  for any
damages,  but Landlord,  at no cost to Tenant,  shall,  as Tenant's sole remedy,
perform  such work or take such other  action as may be  necessary  to cure such
violation,  but only to the extent that such violation  materially and adversely
affects  Tenant's  use  or  occupancy  of  the  Premises.   Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  Landlord  shall have the right to contest any alleged  violation  in
good faith, including,  without limitation,  the right to apply for and obtain a
waiver or  deferment  of  compliance,  the right to assert any and all  defenses
allowed by law, and the right to appeal any  decisions,  judgments or rulings to
the fullest extent  permitted by law, and Landlord's  obligation to perform work
or take such other action to cure a violation  under this  Section  7.1(a) shall
apply after the exhaustion of any and all rights to appeal or contest.

            (b) Tenant's  Responsibilities.  Tenant shall,  at its sole cost and
                --------------------------
expense,  (1) comply  with all  Governmental  Requirements;  with any  occupancy
certificate  issued for the  Premises;  and with the  provisions of all recorded
documents  affecting the Premises,  insofar as any thereof relates to or affects
the  condition,  use or occupancy of the  Premises;  and (2) take all proper and
necessary  action to cause the Premises,  including  any repairs,  replacements,
alterations and improvements  thereto, to be maintained,  constructed,  used and
occupied in compliance with applicable Governmental Requirements,  including any
applicable code and ADA requirements, whether or not such requirements are based
on Tenant's use of the  Premises,  and further to assume all  responsibility  to
ensure that the Premises continues to comply with all

                                       17
<PAGE>

Governmental  Requirements,  including  applicable  code  and ADA  requirements,
throughout the Term. Tenant shall be responsible,  at its sole cost and expense,
to make all  alterations  to the  Premises  as are  required  to comply with the
governmental  rules,  regulations,  requirements or standards  described in this
Section 7.1 provided,  however, that, unless necessitated by Tenant's particular
use of the Premises or any  improvements  to or alterations of the Premises made
by or on behalf of Tenant,  Tenant  shall  have no  obligation  to make  capital
repairs or alterations to the Premises to comply with Governmental Requirements.
The judgment of any court of competent  jurisdiction  or the admission of Tenant
in any judicial action,  regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that
Tenant has violated any of said  governmental  measures,  shall be conclusive of
that fact as between Landlord and Tenant.

         7.2  Compliance  in  Common  Areas.  Subject  to  reimbursement  as  an
              -----------------------------
Operating  Cost as provided in Section 2 above,  Landlord shall perform any work
required under any applicable Governmental  Requirements,  including the ADA, to
be performed  in the common  areas of the  Project,  except that Tenant shall be
solely responsible for all such compliance work which is required as a result of
Tenant's  use or  activities,  Tenant's  proposed  alterations  or  repairs,  or
Tenant's Work.  With respect to any code  compliance  work required  outside the
Premises  for which Tenant is  responsible  hereunder,  Landlord  shall have the
right to  perform  such work,  or require  that  Tenant  perform  such work with
contractors,  subcontractors, engineers and architects approved by Landlord; and
if Landlord  elects to perform  such work  outside the  Premises,  Tenant  shall
reimburse  Landlord  for the cost of such work  within  ten (10) days  following
receipt of invoices  therefor.  Landlord makes no  representations or warranties
regarding   whether  the  Project  or  the  Premises  complies  with  applicable
Governmental Requirements as of the date of this Lease.

         7.3 Rules and Regulations. Tenant shall also comply with all reasonable
             ---------------------
rules for the Project which may be established  and amended from time to time by
Landlord.  The present rules and regulations are contained in Exhibit B. Failure
                                                              ---------
by another  tenant to comply  with the rules or failure by  Landlord  to enforce
them shall not relieve Tenant of its obligation to comply with the rules or make
Landlord responsible to Tenant in any way. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts
to apply the rules and  regulations  uniformly  with  respect  to Tenant and any
other  tenants in the Project  under  leases  containing  rules and  regulations
similar to this Lease. If Tenant performs  alterations or repairs,  Tenant shall
comply with the provisions of Section 5 of this Lease.

      8. WAIVER OF CLAIMS; INDEMNIFICATION; INSURANCE.
         --------------------------------------------

         8.1  Waiver of Claims.  Neither Landlord nor the other Landlord Parties
              ----------------
(as  defined  below)  shall be liable to Tenant  or to any  Tenant  Parties  (as
defined  below),  and Tenant waives all claims  against  Landlord and such other
Landlord Parties, for any injury to or death of any person or for loss of use of
or damage to or  destruction  of property in or about the Premises or Project by
or from any cause whatsoever, including without limitation,  earthquake or earth
movement,  gas, fire, oil, electricity or leakage from the roof, walls, basement
or other  portion of the  Premises  or  Project,  except only to the extent such
injury,  death or damage is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such  Landlord  Party or  Landlord's  breach  of this  Lease or except to the
extent such limitation on liability is prohibited by law. The provisions of this
Section 8.1 shall survive the  expiration or earlier  termination  of this Lease
until all claims  within

                                       18
<PAGE>

the scope of this Section 8.1 are fully,  finally,  and absolutely barred by the
applicable statutes of limitations.

         8.2 Indemnification.
             ---------------

            (a)  Subject to the waiver of  subrogation  set forth in Section 8.6
below,   Tenant  shall  indemnify,   protect,   defend  (by  counsel  reasonably
satisfactory  to  Landlord)  and  hold  harmless   Landlord  and  its  officers,
directors,  employees and agents (each, a "Landlord Party" and collectively, the
                                           --------------
"Landlord Parties"), and each of them, against any and all obligations,  losses,
 ----------------
claims,  actions  (including  remedial  or  enforcement  actions of any kind and
administrative or judicial proceedings,  suits, orders or judgments),  causes of
action,  liabilities,  penalties,  damages (including consequential and punitive
damages),  costs and expenses (including  reasonable attorneys' and consultants'
fees and expenses)  (collectively,  "Claims") arising from any of the following,
                                     ------
including,  but not limited to,  Claims  brought by or on behalf of employees of
Tenant,  with  respect to which Tenant  waives,  for the benefit of the Landlord
Parties,  any  immunity  to which  Tenant  may be  entitled  under any  worker's
compensation  laws:  (i) any  cause  in,  on or  about  the  Premises,  (ii) any
negligence or willful  misconduct of Tenant or any person or entity  claiming by
or  through  Tenant  (including  any  assignee  or  subtenant),  or any of their
respective  members,  partners,  employees,   contractors,   agents,  customers,
visitors,  licensees  or other  persons  in or about  the  Project  by reason of
Tenant's  occupancy of the Premises  (each a "Tenant  Party" and,  collectively,
                                              -------------
"Tenant Parties"), or (iii) Tenant's breach of its obligations under this Lease,
 --------------
either prior to, during,  or after the expiration of the Lease Term  (including,
without  limitation,  Tenant's  failure to surrender  the Premises in accordance
with Section 14 below); provided,  however, that Tenant's obligations under this
Section  shall be  inapplicable  to the extent such Claims  arise from the gross
negligence or willful  misconduct of such Landlord Party or Landlord's breach of
this Lease or to the extent such obligations are prohibited by applicable law.

            (b) Subject to the waivers of liability and subrogation set forth in
Sections 8.1 and 8.6,  respectively,  Landlord shall indemnify and hold harmless
Tenant,  its officers,  agents and employees  from and against all Claims to the
extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord,  its
employees, agents or contractors.

            (c) Tenant's duty to defend Landlord and the other Landlord  Parties
under this Section 8.2 is separate and independent of Tenant's duty to indemnify
the Landlord Parties.  The duty to defend includes claims for which the Landlord
Parties  may be liable  without  fault or  strictly  liable.  The duty to defend
applies  regardless  of whether  the  issues of  negligence,  liability,  fault,
default, or other obligation on the part of Tenant Parties have been determined.
The duty to defend  applies  immediately,  regardless  of whether  any  Landlord
Parties have paid any sums or incurred any detriment  arising out of or relating
(directly  or  indirectly)  to any  Claims.  The parties  expressly  intend that
Landlord  Parties shall be entitled to obtain  summary  adjudication  or summary
judgment  regarding Tenant's duty to defend the Landlord Parties at any stage of
any claim or suit within the scope of this Section.

            (d) The parties'  obligations  under this Section  shall survive the
expiration  or earlier  termination  of this Lease  until all Claims  within the
scope of this  Section  8.2 are fully,  finally,  and  absolutely  barred by the
applicable statutes of limitations.

commercially reasonable deductible.

            (c)  Business  Income  insurance  and extra  expense  coverage  with

                       Disease--Each Employee:   $500,000

         Tenant's  insurance  shall  be  primary  and not  contributory  to that
carried by Landlord, its agents, or mortgagee.  Landlord, and if any, Landlord's
building manager or agent,  and, if Landlord  requests,  any Security Holder (as
defined in Section 16.1 below),  shall be named as additional insureds under the
insurance  required  of the  Tenant in Section  8.3(a),  and  Tenant's  property
insurance  policies  shall be endorsed to provide that any loss shall be payable
to Landlord and such other additional parties as Landlord may specify,  as their
respective  interests may appear. The company or companies writing any insurance
which  Tenant is required to maintain  under this Lease,  as well as the form of
such insurance,  shall at all times be subject to Landlord's  approval,  and any
such company shall be licensed to do business in the state in which the Building

better.

additional insured on Tenant's contractor's insurance policies.

         8.4   Insurance   Certificates.   Tenant  shall   deliver  to  Landlord
               ------------------------
certificates evidencing all required insurance no later than five (5) days prior
to the  Commencement  Date and each renewal date. Each  certificate will provide
for thirty  (30) days prior  written  notice of  cancellation  to  Landlord  and
Tenant.

         8.5 Landlord's Insurance. Subject to reimbursement as an Operating Cost
             --------------------
in accordance  with the  provisions of Section 2 hereof,  Landlord shall procure
and  maintain in effect  throughout  the Term of this Lease  commercial  general
liability insurance,  property insurance and/or such other types of insurance as
are normally  carried by  reasonably  prudent  owners of  commercial  properties
substantially  similar to the Project.  Such coverages shall be in such amounts,
from such  companies and on such other terms and conditions as Landlord may from
time to time reasonably  determine,  and Landlord shall have the right,  but not
the obligation,  to change, cancel, decrease or increase any insurance coverages
in respect of the Building,  add additional forms of insurance as Landlord shall
deem reasonably  necessary,  and/or obtain  umbrella or other policies  covering
both the Building and other assets owned by or  associated  with Landlord or its
affiliates, in which event the cost thereof shall be equitably allocated.

         8.6 Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and release
             ---------------------
any and all rights of recovery  against  the other  party,  including  officers,
employees,  agents and authorized  representatives (whether in contract or tort)
of such other party,  that arise or result from any and all loss of or damage to
any property of the waiving party  located  within or  constituting  part of the
Building,  including the  Premises,  to the extent due to a risk covered under a
standard ISO Commercial  Property insurance policy, or such additional  property
coverage  as the  waiving  party  may  carry  (with  a  commercially  reasonable
deductible),  whether  or not the party  suffering  the loss or damage  actually
carries any insurance,  recovers under any insurance or self-insures the loss or
damage.  Each party shall have their property  insurance policies issued in such
form as to waive any right of subrogation as might otherwise exist.  This mutual
waiver is in addition to any other waiver or release contained in this Lease.

      9. FIRE AND OTHER CASUALTY.
         -----------------------

         9.1 Termination.  If a fire or other casualty causes substantial damage
             -----------
to the  Premises,  Landlord  shall  engage a  registered  architect to estimate,
within one (1) month of the casualty,  to both Landlord and Tenant the amount of
time needed to restore the Premises to

                                       21
<PAGE>

tenantability,  using standard  working  methods without the payment of overtime
and other  premiums.  If the time  needed  exceeds  twelve  (12) months from the
beginning of the  restoration,  or two (2) months  therefrom if the  restoration
would begin during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease, then in the case of
damage to the Premises,  either  Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease, by
notice to the other  party  within  ten (10) days  after the  notifying  party's
receipt of the architect's  estimate.  If sufficient insurance proceeds will not
be  available to Landlord to cover the cost of any  restoration  to the Premises
because (i) the casualty event was not required to be insured  against  pursuant
to the  terms of this  Lease  and was not  actually  insured  against,  (ii) the
financial  inability  of  Landlord's  insurance  carrier  to make such  proceeds
available to Landlord, or (iii) Landlord's  mortgagee,  if any, has applied such
proceeds to the  indebtedness  secured by such  mortgagee  and Landlord does not
commence  restoration within one hundred eighty (180) days of the damage,  then,
Landlord may terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant.  Any  termination
pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be  effective  thirty (30) days from the date
of such  termination  notice and Rent shall be paid by Tenant to that date, with
an  abatement  for  any  portion  of  the  Premises   which  has  been  rendered
untenantable as a result of the casualty.  Notwithstanding any of the foregoing,
Landlord  shall not have the right to terminate  this Lease if the damage to the
Premises is relatively  minor (for example,  if the repair or restoration  would
cost less than ten percent (10%) of the replacement cost of the Premises).

         9.2  Restoration.  If a casualty  causes  damage to the Building or the
              -----------
Premises but this Lease is not  terminated  for any reason,  then subject to the
rights of any mortgagees or ground lessors, Landlord shall obtain the applicable
insurance  proceeds  and  diligently  restore the  Building  and the Premises to
substantially their prior condition,  except for modifications  required by then
applicable  Governmental  Requirements or any other  modifications to the common
areas of the Building, if any, deemed desirable by Landlord;  provided, however,
that,  within ten (10) days following notice to Tenant from Landlord (whether or
not this Lease is  terminated  pursuant  to Section  9.1  above),  Tenant  shall
irrevocably and  unconditionally  assign to Landlord (or to any party designated
by Landlord) all insurance  proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant's  insurance
required under Section 8.3(b) above which pertain to the repair and  restoration
of  the  leasehold  improvements  in  the  Premises,   including  any  leasehold
improvements  performed  by or on behalf of Tenant  pursuant to Section 5 above;
and provided further,  that if the cost of repair and restoration by Landlord of
the  leasehold  improvements  in the  Premises  exceeds the amount of  insurance
proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant's insurance carrier,  the cost of such
repair and restoration shall be promptly paid by Tenant to Landlord,  but in any
event prior to Landlord's commencement of repair of the damage.  Notwithstanding
the  foregoing,  Landlord  shall  have no  obligation  with  respect  to, and if
Landlord  elects or is  required to perform any  restoration  hereunder,  Tenant
shall be responsible  for and shall,  repair and replace at its sole cost all of
Tenant's equipment, furniture, trade fixtures and other personal property in the
Premises,  including,  without limitation,  any telecommunications wires, cables
and related devices located in or serving the Premises.  Rent shall be abated on
a per diem basis during the restoration for any portion of the Premises which is
untenantable.  Tenant shall not be entitled to any  compensation or damages from
Landlord  for  loss of the use of the  Premises,  damage  to  Tenant's  personal
property  and trade  fixtures or any  inconvenience  occasioned  by such damage,
repair or  restoration.  Tenant  hereby  waives the  provisions of Section 1932,
Subdivision 2, and Section 1933,  Subdivision  4, of the California  Civil Code,
and the provisions of any similar law hereinafter enacted.

                                       22
<PAGE>

      10. EMINENT DOMAIN. If a part of the Project is taken by eminent domain or
          --------------
deed in lieu thereof which is so substantial that the Premises cannot reasonably
be used by Tenant for the  operation  of its  business,  then  either  party may
terminate  this Lease  effective as of the date of the taking.  Rent shall abate
from the date of the taking in proportion to any part of the Premises taken. The
entire  award for a taking of any kind  shall be paid to  Landlord,  and  Tenant
shall  have  no  right  to  share  in the  award  including  the  "bonus  value"
represented by the difference, if any, between rent payable under this Lease and
market rent for the unexpired  Term,  and Tenant shall have no right to share in
the award; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit
Tenant from filing a separate claim at its sole cost and expense for an award or
portion  thereof  separately  designated  for (a) relocation  costs,  (b) moving
expenses or (c) personal property, trade fixtures and the unamortized portion of
the value of all Alterations performed in the Premises by Tenant during the Term
(such  amortization to be calculated on a  straight-line  basis over the Term of
this Lease,  without regard to any future  extension terms as of the date of the
taking,  and such value to be determined,  at Tenant's expense,  by an appraiser
selected by Landlord  and  approved by Tenant);  or (d) loss of or damage to the
goodwill of Tenant's  business and lost profits (but only to the extent the same
does not constitute "bonus value").  All obligations  accrued to the date of the
taking shall be performed  by the party liable to perform said  obligations,  as
set forth herein.  Tenant  hereby  waives any and all rights it might  otherwise
have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of The California Code of Civil Procedure.

      11. RIGHTS RESERVED TO LANDLORD.
          ---------------------------

         Landlord  may  exercise  at  any  time  any  of  the  following  rights
respecting the operation of the Project without liability to Tenant of any kind:

         11.1 Name.  To change the name of the Building or the  Project,  or the
              ----
street address of the Building or the suite number(s) of the Premises; provided,
however,  that so long as Tenant  leases and  occupies  more than fifty  percent
(50%) of the Building,  then Landlord may not change the name or street  address
of the Building, or the suite number(s) of the Premises,  without Tenant's prior
reasonable consent..

         11.2  Signs.  To  install,  modify  and/or  maintain  any  signs on the
               -----
exterior and in the  interior of the Building or on the Project,  and to approve
at its sole  discretion,  prior to  installation,  any of Tenant's  signs in the
Premises visible from the common areas or the exterior of the Building.

         11.3  Window  Treatments.  To  approve,  at its  discretion,  prior  to
               ------------------
installation,  any shades, blinds, ventilators or window treatments of any kind,
as well as any  lighting  within  the  Premises  that  may be  visible  from the
exterior of the Building or any interior  common area.

         11.4 Keys. To retain and use at any time passkeys to enter the Premises
              ----
or any door within the Premises. Tenant shall not alter or add any lock or bolt.

         11.5 Access.  To have access to the Premises  with  twenty-four  hours'
              ------
prior notice  (except in the case of an emergency,  in which case Landlord shall
have the right to immediate access) to inspect the Premises,  to post notices of
non-responsibility  in  connection  with  any  Alterations,   to  make  repairs,
alterations,  additions or  improvements  to the  Premises or

                                       23
<PAGE>

Building,  and to perform  any other  obligations  of  Landlord  hereunder,  all
without abatement of Rent.  Landlord shall,  subject to Tenant's compliance with
its  obligations  pursuant to this Section 11.5,  follow  Tenant's  commercially
reasonable  security  requirements in connection with any entry by Landlord into
the Premises. If Tenant requires that all persons entering the Premises shall be
attended  by a  representative  of Tenant,  Tenant  shall make a  representative
available upon 24 hours' prior telephone notice by Landlord.  In the event of an
emergency,  however,  Landlord shall use good-faith  efforts to follow  Tenant's
security  requirements,  but Landlord  will be required to give only such notice
that it in good faith believes is feasible under the  circumstances and need not
wait to be accompanied by Tenant or its employees or  representatives  (although
these parties may still accompany  Landlord if they are available and wish to do
so).

         11.6 Preparation for Reoccupancy.  To decorate,  remodel, repair, alter
              ---------------------------
or  otherwise  prepare the  Premises  for  reoccupancy  at any time after Tenant
abandons the Premises, without relieving Tenant of any obligation to pay Rent.

         11.7  Heavy Articles.  To approve the weight, size,  placement and time
               --------------
and manner of movement within the Building of any safe, central filing system or
other  heavy  article of  Tenant's  property.  Tenant  shall  move its  property
entirely at its own risk.

         11.8  Show  Premises. To show the Premises to  prospective  purchasers,
               --------------
brokers,  lenders,  mortgagees,  investors, or rating agencies at any reasonable
time,  and,  during the last  twelve  (12)  months of the Term,  to  prospective
tenants,  provided  that  Landlord  gives  prior  notice to Tenant  and does not
materially interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises.

         11.9  Relocation of Tenant.  If Tenant  exercises its Reduction  Option
               --------------------
under Section 32 below and,  thereafter during the Term of this Lease,  Landlord
receives a bona fide offer from a  third-party  to lease at least 74,979  square
feet of rentable area in the Building (the "Third-Party Space"),  which offer is
                                            -----------------
acceptable to Landlord (the "Third-Party Offer"),  Landlord may relocate Tenant,
                             -----------------
upon at least ninety (90) days' prior written notice (the "Relocation  Notice"),
                                                           ------------------
from the Premises to another  premises in any comparable  class project owned by
Landlord or its affiliates in San Jose (north of Highway 880),  Santa Clara,  or
Sunnyvale,  California (the "New Premises"), subject to, and in accordance with,
                             ------------
the following:

            (a) The Relocation  Notice will specify the terms of the Third-Party
Offer and shall  describe the proposed New  Premises,  which shall be within ten
percent (10%) of the size of the Premises described in this Lease;

            (b) The  New  Premises  must be in a  contiguous  block  within  one
building and shall,  at Landlord's  sole cost,  be reasonably  comparable to the
Premises with respect to tenant  improvements,  finishes and layout  (taking any
differences  in  configuration  between the Premises  and the New Premises  into
account);  provided,  however,  that  Landlord and Tenant agree that the "Valley
Centre  I" and  "Valley  Centre  II"  projects  in San Jose  are not  reasonably
comparable to the Premises;

            (c)  Tenant  shall,  within  (10) days of  Tenant's  receipt  of the
Relocation  Notice,  either  (i) accept the New  Premises,  (ii)  reject the New
Premises or (iii) elect to add to the

                                       24
<PAGE>

Premises  the  additional  23,755  square  feet  in  the  Building  that  Tenant
eliminated by exercising its Reduction  Option pursuant to Section 32 below (the
"Additional  Square  Footage").  If Tenant elects to add the  Additional  Square
 ---------------------------
Footage to the Premises,  the Additional  Square Footage shall be added upon the
identical economic terms and conditions set forth in the Relocation Notice (on a
per square footage basis) and, to the extent not  inconsistent  therewith,  upon
all of the terms and conditions of this Lease. Tenant's failure, within such ten
(10) day period,  either to (i) accept the New Premises or (ii) elect to add the
Additional Square Footage to the Premises hereunder, shall be deemed a rejection
of the New Premises as of the last day of the ten (10) day period, time being of
the  essence,  in which  event  Landlord  shall have the right,  exercisable  by
written  notice to Tenant (the  "Termination  Notice")  within  twenty (20) days
                                 -------------------
after  Tenant's  rejection,  to cancel and terminate  this Lease on the date set
forth in the  Termination  Notice (which date shall be not less than ninety (90)
days  nor  more  than  one  hundred  twenty  (120)  days  after  the date of the
Termination  Notice),  provided that, prior to the termination date set forth in
the  Termination  Notice,  Landlord  shall pay to Tenant the sum of Two  Hundred
Fifty-Six Thousand One Hundred Twenty Dollars  ($256,120.00) in consideration of
Tenant's moving costs. If Tenant accepts the New Premises, Tenant shall relocate
to the New Premises on the date designated by Landlord in the Relocation Notice.
If Tenant elects to add the Additional  Square  Footage,  Landlord shall deliver
possession  of  the  Additional  Square  Footage  to  Tenant  on the  terms  and
conditions set forth in the Relocation Notice;  provided,  however, that Tenant,
at its sole cost and  expense,  shall make such  alterations  that Tenant  deems
reasonably  necessary or appropriate to create access between the  then-Premises
and the Additional Square Footage, and access from the Additional Square Footage
to the freight elevator in the dock area;

            (d)  The  physical   relocation  and   re-installation  of  Tenant's
furniture,  trade  fixtures,  equipment and other  personal  property to the New
Premises (including  re-cabling and re-wiring) shall be performed by Landlord at
its sole cost;

            (e)  Tenant  shall   cooperate   with  Landlord  to  facilitate  the
relocation,  including  supervising the movement of files or fragile  equipment,
designating  new  locations  for  furniture,  equipment  and new  telephone  and
electrical outlets, and determining the color of paint in the New Premises;

            (f) All  reasonable  costs  incurred  by  Tenant  as a result of the
relocation,  including, without limitation, costs incurred in changing addresses
on stationery,  business cards, directories,  advertising, and other such items,
shall be paid by Landlord;

            (g) If the New  Premises  is a  different  square  footage  than the
Premises  described in this Lease,  (i) the Base Rent shall be adjusted to a sum
computed by  multiplying  the Base Rent specified in the Schedule by a fraction,
the  numerator  of which  shall be the total  number  of square  feet in the New
Premises,  and the denominator of which shall be the total number of square feet
in the Premises before relocation, provided, however, in no event shall the Base
Rent hereunder be increased as a result of such  relocation  (i.e.,  even if the
New  Premises  contains  more than 51,224  square  feet,  the Base Rent  payable
hereunder shall not exceed the amounts set forth in Item 14 of the Schedule) and
(ii) Tenant's Proportionate Share shall be appropriately adjusted, provided that
the amount of Operating Costs payable by Tenant with respect to the New Premises
shall not exceed the  Operating  Costs that would have been  payable  under this
Lease absent such relocation;

                                       25
<PAGE>

            (h) If  requested  by Landlord,  Tenant  shall  promptly  execute an
amendment to this Lease  confirming the relocation of Tenant to the New Premises
and the adjustment of Base Rent and Tenant's Proportionate Share, if any; and

            (i) Tenant's  failure to surrender  the Premises and relocate to the
New Premises as required  hereunder,  or Tenant's  interference  with Landlord's
physical relocation of Tenant's furniture,  trade fixtures,  equipment and other
personal  property to the New  Premises,  shall  constitute  an Event of Default
hereunder.

         11.10  Use of  Lockbox. To  designate  a lockbox  collection  agent for
                ---------------
collections  of amounts due Landlord.  In that case, the date of payment of Rent
or other sums shall be the date of the  agent's  receipt of such  payment or the
date of  actual  collection  if  payment  is made  in the  form of a  negotiable
instrument thereafter  dishonored upon presentment.  However, if there exists an
uncured Event of Default  under this Lease,  Landlord may reject any payment for
all purposes as of the date of receipt or actual collection by mailing to Tenant
within a reasonable  time after such receipt or  collection a check equal to the
amount sent by Tenant.

         11.11 Repairs and  Alterations.  To make repairs or  alterations to the
               ------------------------
Project and in doing so transport any required material through the Premises, to
close  entrances,  doors,  corridors,  elevators  and  other  facilities  in the
Project, to open any ceiling in the Premises, or to temporarily suspend services
or use of common areas in the Building. Landlord may perform any such repairs or
alterations  during ordinary business hours,  except that Tenant may require any
work in the Premises to be done after business hours if Tenant pays Landlord for
overtime and any other expenses incurred.  Landlord may do or permit any work on
any nearby building, land, street, alley or way.

         11.12  Building  Services.  To install,  use and  maintain  through the
                ------------------
Premises,  pipes, conduits, wires and ducts serving the Building,  provided that
such  installation,  use and maintenance  does not  unreasonably  interfere with
Tenant's use of the Premises.

         11.13  Use of Roof.  To  install,  operate,  maintain  and  repair  any
                -----------
satellite  dish,  antennae,  equipment,  or  other  facility  on the roof of the
Building or to use the roof of the Building in any other manner, or to allow any
entity  selected by Landlord to  undertake  the  foregoing,  provided  that such
installation,  operation,  maintenance,  repair  or use  does  not  unreasonably
interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises.

         11.14 CC&Rs.  Landlord, at any time, may promulgate and record a set of
               -----
CC&Rs which will govern the access, parking, design, signage and other rights of
the tenants in the Project, so long as such CC&Rs do not impose any material new
payment  obligation  on Tenant  or  require  Tenant  to  modify  any of the then
existing improvements.

         11.15 Other  Actions.  To take any other  action which  Landlord  deems
               --------------
reasonable in connection with the operation,  maintenance or preservation of the
Building and the Project.

<PAGE>

         12.1  Tenant's  Default.  The  occurrence  of any  one or  more  of the
               -----------------
following events (each, an "Event of Default") shall constitute a breach of this
                            ----------------
Lease by Tenant:

            (a) Tenant fails to pay any Rent when due and such failure continues
for five (5) days or more following Landlord's notice of such failure.

            (b)  Tenant  fails to  perform  its  obligations  under  Section  17
(Assignment and Sublease), or Section 28 (Hazardous Substances).

            (c) Tenant abandons the Premises.

            (d) Tenant fails to perform any  obligation  to Landlord  under this
Lease other than those described in Sections 12.1(a),  12.1(b) or 12.1(c) above,
and such  failure  continues  for thirty  (30) days after  written  notice  from
Landlord or Landlord's  agent,  except that if Tenant begins to cure its failure
within the thirty (30) day period but cannot reasonably complete its cure within
such period, then, so long as Tenant continues to diligently attempt to cure its
failure,  the thirty (30) day period  shall be  extended  to one hundred  twenty
(120) days,  or such lesser  period as is  reasonably  necessary to complete the
cure.

            (e) One of the following credit defaults occurs:

               (i) Tenant (or any guarantor of Tenant's  obligations  hereunder)
commences  any  proceeding  under any law  relating to  bankruptcy,  insolvency,
reorganization or relief of debts, or seeks appointment of a receiver,  trustee,
custodian or other similar official for the Tenant (or the guarantor) or for any
substantial  part of its property,  or any such proceeding is commenced  against
Tenant (or the guarantor) and either remains  undismissed  for a period of sixty
(60) days or results in the entry of an order for relief  against Tenant (or the
guarantor) which is not fully stayed within seven (7) days after entry;

               (ii) Tenant (or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations  hereunder)
becomes bankrupt, does not generally pay its debts as they become due, or admits
in writing its inability to pay its debts, or makes a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors;

               (iii) Any third party obtains a levy or attachment  under process
of law against Tenant's leasehold interest.

            Tenant  acknowledges and agrees that,  notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 12, that any notices required to be given by Landlord
under this  Section 12 shall,  in each case,  be in lieu of, and not in addition
to, any notice  required  under  Section  1161 of the  California  Code of Civil
Procedure,  and shall be deemed to satisfy the requirement,  if any, that notice
be given pursuant to such section.

            12.2  Landlord  Defaults. Landlord shall be in default  hereunder if
                  ------------------
Landlord has not begun and pursued  with  reasonable  diligence  the cure of any
failure of Landlord to meet its  obligations  hereunder  within thirty (30) days
after the  receipt by  Landlord  of written  notice  from  Tenant of the alleged
failure to perform.  In no event shall  Tenant  have the right to  terminate  or
rescind  this  Lease as a result of  Landlord's  default as to any  covenant  or
agreement  contained  in this  Lease.  Tenant  hereby  waives  such  remedies of
termination and rescission and hereby agrees

                                       27
<PAGE>

that  Tenant's  remedies for default  hereunder and for breach of any promise or
inducement  shall  be  limited  to a suit  for  damages  and/or  injunction.  In
addition,  Tenant  hereby  covenants  that,  prior to the  exercise  of any such
remedies,  Tenant will give notice and a reasonable  time to cure any default by
Landlord  to any holder of a mortgage  or deed of trust  encumbering  Landlord's
interest in the Project of which Tenant has been given notice.

            12.3 Force Majeure. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease
                 -------------
to the contrary,  neither party shall be in default hereunder to the extent such
party is unable to perform any of its  obligations on account of any prevention,
delay,  stoppage due to strikes,  lockouts,  inclement weather,  labor disputes,
inability to obtain labor,  materials,  fuels, energy or reasonable  substitutes
therefor, governmental restrictions, regulations, controls, actions or inaction,
civil commotion,  fire or other acts of god, national emergency,  acts of war or
terrorism or any other cause of any kind beyond its reasonable  control  (except
financial  inability)  ("Force  Majeure");   provided,   however,  that  nothing
contained in this  Section  12.3 shall  relieve  Tenant from the  obligation  to
timely pay Rent under this Lease,

      13. LANDLORD REMEDIES. UPON ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT BY TENANT, LANDLORD SHALL
          -----------------
HAVE THE  FOLLOWING  REMEDIES,  IN  ADDITION  TO ALL OTHER  RIGHTS AND  REMEDIES
PROVIDED  BY LAW OR  OTHERWISE  PROVIDED IN THIS LEASE,  TO WHICH  LANDLORD  MAY
RESORT CUMULATIVELY OR IN THE ALTERNATIVE:

         13.1  Termination  of Lease.  Landlord may elect by notice to Tenant to
               ---------------------
terminate  this Lease,  in which  event,  Tenant  shall  immediately  vacate the
Premises and deliver possession to Landlord.

         13.2  Civil Code Section 1951.4 Remedy. Even though Tenant has breached
               --------------------------------
this Lease, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not
terminate  Tenant's  right to  possession,  and  Landlord  shall have all of its
rights and  remedies,  including the right,  pursuant to  California  Civil Code
Section  1951.4,  to recover  all rent as it becomes  due under this  Lease,  if
Tenant  has  the  right  to  sublet  or  assign,   subject  only  to  reasonable
limitations.  Acts of  maintenance  or  preservation  or  efforts  to relet  the
Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon initiative of Landlord to protect
Landlord's  interest  under this Lease shall not  constitute  a  termination  of
Tenant's  right to possession  unless  written notice of termination is given by
Landlord to Tenant.

         13.3  Lease  Termination  Damages. If Landlord elects to terminate this
               ---------------------------
Lease,  then this Lease shall terminate on the date for termination set forth in
such notice. Tenant shall immediately vacate the Premises and deliver possession
to Landlord,  and Landlord may  repossess the Premises and may, at Tenant's sole
cost,  remove  any of  Tenant's  signs  and any of its other  property,  without
relinquishing  its right to receive Rent or any other right against  Tenant.  On
termination, Landlord has the right to recover from Tenant as damages:

            (a) The worth at the time of award of unpaid Rent and other sums due
and payable which had been earned at the time of termination; plus

                                       28
<PAGE>

            (b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
Rent and  other  sums  due and  payable  which  would  have  been  earned  after
termination  until the time of award  exceeds  the amount of such Rent loss that
Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

            (c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid
Rent and other sums due and  payable  for the balance of the Term after the time
of award  exceeds  the  amount of such Rent loss  that  Tenant  proves  could be
reasonably avoided; plus

            (d) Any other amount  necessary to  compensate  Landlord for all the
detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's obligations
under this Lease, or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to
result therefrom,  including, without limitation, any costs or expenses incurred
by Landlord:  (i) in retaking  possession of the Premises;  (ii) in maintaining,
repairing,    preserving,    restoring,   replacing,   cleaning,   altering   or
rehabilitating  the  Premises or any portion  thereof,  including  such acts for
reletting to a new tenant or tenants; (iii) for leasing commissions; or (iv) for
any other costs necessary or appropriate to relet the Premises; plus

            (e) At Landlord's election,  such other amounts in addition to or in
lieu of the  foregoing as may be permitted  from time to time by the laws of the
State of California.

         The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in Sections
13.3(a) and 13.3(b) is computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate on the
unpaid rent and other sums due and payable from the termination date through the
date of award.  The  "worth at the time of award" of the amount  referred  to in
Section  13.3(c) is computed by discounting  such amount at the discount rate of
the Federal  Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent
(1%).  Tenant waives  redemption or relief from forfeiture under California Code
of Civil Procedure  Sections 1174 and 1179, or under any other present or future
law, if Tenant is evicted or Landlord takes possession of the Premises by reason
of any Event of Default by Tenant hereunder.

         13.4 Landlord's Remedies  Cumulative.  All of Landlord's remedies under
              -------------------------------
this Lease shall be in addition to all other  remedies  Landlord may have at law
or in equity, including,  without limitation, the remedy described in California
Civil Code Section 1951.4 (pursuant to which Landlord may continue this Lease in
effect after Tenant's  breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due
if Tenant  has the right to sublet or assign the  Lease,  subject to  reasonable
limitations). Waiver by Landlord of any breach of any obligation by Tenant shall
be effective  only if it is in writing,  and shall not be deemed a waiver of any
other breach, or any subsequent breach of the same obligation. The possession of
Tenant's funds, negotiation of Tenant's negotiable instruments, or acceptance of
Tenant's  payment by Landlord or its agents shall not constitute a waiver of any
breach by Tenant, and if such possession, negotiation or acceptance occurs after
Landlord's  notice to Tenant,  or termination of this Lease or of Tenant's right
to possession, such possession,  negotiation or acceptance shall not affect such
notice or termination. Acceptance of payment by Landlord after commencement of a
legal proceeding or final judgment shall not affect such proceeding or judgment.
Landlord  may  advance  such  monies and take such other  actions  for  Tenant's
account as reasonably may be required to cure or

                                       29
<PAGE>

mitigate any default by Tenant.  Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord for
any such  advance,  and such sums shall bear interest at the Interest Rate until
paid.

         13.5  WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. TO THE EXTENT  PERMITTED  BY  APPLICABLE
               -----------------------
LAW,  EACH PARTY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IF ANY LEGAL  PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT BY THE
OTHER IN CONNECTION  WITH THIS LEASE.  EACH PARTY SHALL BRING ANY ACTION AGAINST
THE OTHER IN  CONNECTION  WITH THIS LEASE IN A FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN
CALIFORNIA, CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO
HAVE ANY PROCEEDING TRANSFERRED FROM SUCH COURTS ON THE GROUND OF IMPROPER VENUE
OR  INCONVENIENT  FORUM.  THE  PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 13.5 SHALL SURVIVE THE
EXPIRATION OR EARLIER TERMINATION OF THIS LEASE.

      14.  SURRENDER.  Upon the expiration or earlier  termination of this Lease
           ---------
for any reason, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in its condition
existing as of the date Landlord delivers  possession of the Premises to Tenant,
normal  wear and tear and damage by fire or other  casualty  excepted,  with all
interior  walls  repaired  and  repainted  if marked  or  damaged,  all  carpets
shampooed and cleaned,  all broken,  marred or nonconforming  acoustical ceiling
tiles  replaced,  all windows  washed,  the plumbing and electrical  systems and
lighting in good order and repair,  including  replacement  of any burned out or
broken light bulbs or ballasts,  the HVAC  equipment  serviced and repaired by a
reputable  and licensed  service  firm  acceptable  to Landlord,  and all floors
cleaned and waxed, all to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord.  Tenant shall
remove  from the  Premises  and the  Project  all of  Tenant's  trade  fixtures,
furniture,  moveable equipment and other personal property,  and any Alterations
which Landlord  elects to be removed  pursuant to Section 5.3, and shall restore
the Premises to its condition prior to their  installation,  including,  without
limitation, repairing all damage caused by the installation or removal of any of
the foregoing items. If Tenant does not timely remove such property, then Tenant
shall be  conclusively  presumed to have, at Landlord's  election:  (a) conveyed
such property to Landlord  without  compensation or (b) abandoned such property,
and  Landlord may dispose of or store any part thereof in any manner at Tenant's
sole cost,  without waiving  Landlord's  right to claim from Tenant all expenses
arising out of Tenant's failure to remove the property, and without liability to
Tenant or any other  person.  Landlord  shall have no duty to be a bailee of any
such personal property.  If Landlord elects to consider such property abandoned,
Tenant  shall be liable to  Landlord  for the costs of: (i)  removal of any such
Alterations or personal property, (ii) storage, transportation,  and disposition
of the same,  and (iii) repair and  restoration  of the Premises,  together with
interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the date of expenditure by Landlord.

      15.  HOLDOVER.  Tenant shall have no right to holdover  possession  of the
           --------
Premises after the  expiration or  termination of this Lease without  Landlord's
prior  written  consent  which  Landlord  may  withhold in its sole and absolute
discretion.  If, however,  Tenant retains possession of any part of the Premises
after the Term,  Tenant shall become a tenant at sufferance only, for the entire
Premises  upon all of the  terms of this  Lease as might be  applicable  to such
tenancy,  except that Tenant  shall pay Base Rent at one hundred  fifty  percent
(150%) of the rate in effect  immediately prior to such holdover (without regard
to any  abatements of Rent on account of casualty or  otherwise),  computed on a
monthly  basis for each full or partial  month  Tenant  remains  in  possession.
Tenant shall also protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord

                                       30
<PAGE>

harmless from and against all Claims  resulting  from such  failure,  including,
without  limiting  the  generality  of the  foregoing,  any  claims  made by any
succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender and any lost profits to
Landlord  resulting  therefrom.  No  acceptance  of Rent or  other  payments  by
Landlord under these holdover provisions shall operate as a waiver of Landlord's
right to regain possession or any other of Landlord's remedies.

      16. SUBORDINATION TO GROUND LEASES AND MORTGAGES.
          --------------------------------------------

         16.1  Subordination.  Subject to the  provisions of Section 16.6 below,
               -------------
this  Lease  shall be  subordinate  to any  present  or future  ground  lease or
mortgage  respecting  the Project,  and any  amendments  to such ground lease or
mortgage,  at the  election  of the  ground  lessor or  mortgagee  (a  "Security
                                                                        --------
Holder"),  as the case may be,  effected  by  notice  to  Tenant  in the  manner
------
provided in this Lease. The  subordination  shall be effective upon such notice,
but at the request of Landlord or such Security Holder,  Tenant shall within ten
(10) days after the  request,  execute and deliver to the  requesting  party any
reasonable  documents provided to evidence the subordination.  Any mortgagee has
the right, at its sole option,  to subordinate its mortgage to the terms of this
Lease, without notice to, nor the consent of, Tenant.

         16.2  Termination of Ground Lease or  Foreclosure  of Mortgage.  If any
               --------------------------------------------------------
ground lease is terminated or mortgage foreclosed or deed in lieu of foreclosure
given and the Security  Holder or purchaser at a foreclosure  sale shall thereby
become the owner of the Project,  Tenant shall attorn to such Security Holder or
purchaser  without  any  deduction  or setoff by Tenant,  and this  Lease  shall
continue in effect as a direct lease between Tenant and such Security  Holder or
purchaser.  The Security  Holder or purchaser  shall be liable as Landlord  only
during the time such  Security  Holder or purchaser is the owner of the Project.
At the request of Landlord or any  Security  Holder,  Tenant  shall  execute and
deliver  within ten (10) days after the request any  document  furnished  by the
requesting party to evidence Tenant's agreement to attorn.

         16.3 Security Deposit. Any Security Holder shall be responsible for the
              ----------------
return  of any  security  deposit  by Tenant  only to the  extent  the  security
deposit, if any, is received by such Security Holder.

         16.4  Notice  and Right to Cure.  The  Project is subject to any ground
               -------------------------
lease and mortgage  identified  with the name and address of the Security Holder
in  Exhibit  F to this  Lease (as the same may be  amended  from time to time by
written notice to Tenant). Tenant agrees to send by registered or certified mail
to any Security Holder identified in a notice from Landlord to Tenant, a copy of
any notice of default sent by Tenant to Landlord. If Landlord fails to cure such
default  within the  required  time period  under this Lease,  but any  Security
Holder  begins to cure  within  ten (10) days after  such  period  and  proceeds
diligently  to complete  such cure,  then such  Security  Holder shall have such
additional  time as is  necessary  to  complete  such cure,  including  any time
necessary to obtain  possession if  possession is necessary to cure,  and Tenant
shall not begin to enforce its remedies so long as the cure is being  diligently
pursued.

         16.5  Definitions. As used in this Section 16, "mortgage" shall include
               -----------
"trust  deed"  and  "deed  of  trust";   "mortgagee"  shall  include  "trustee",
"beneficiary"  and the  mortgagee  of any ground  lessee;  and "ground  lessor",
"mortgagee",  and "purchaser at a foreclosure sale" shall include, in each case,
all of its successors and assigns, however remote.

                                       31
<PAGE>

         16.6  Non-Disturbance  Agreement. With respect to any present or future
               --------------------------
ground  lease or  mortgage to which this Lease  shall be  subordinate,  Landlord
shall, as a condition to such  subordination,  obtain from the Security  Holder,
for the benefit of Tenant, a non-disturbance agreement, in the customary form of
such  Security  Holder,  that (i) except to the extent  necessary to protect the
Security Holder in the event of circumstances in which its security is impaired,
will not effect an amendment to this Lease which materially  increases  Tenant's
obligations  or  materially  diminishes  Tenant's  rights  hereunder,  and  (ii)
provides  generally  that as long as Tenant is not in default  under this Lease,
this Lease will not be terminated if such Security  Holder acquires title to the
Project by reason of  foreclosure  proceedings,  acceptance of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure, or termination of the leasehold interest of Landlord, provided that
Tenant  attorns to such  Security  Holder in  accordance  with its  commercially
reasonable  requirements.  Tenant shall bear all costs and  expenses  (including
attorneys'  fees) in connection with a  non-disturbance  agreement  described in
this Section.

      17. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE.
          -----------------------

         17.1  In General. Tenant shall not,  without  Landlord's  prior written
               ----------
consent,  in each  case:  (a) make or  allow  any  assignment  or  transfer,  by
operation of law or otherwise,  of any part of Tenant's  interest in this Lease,
(b) sublet any part of the Premises,  or (c) permit anyone other than Tenant and
its  employees  to occupy any part of the  Premises  (all of the  foregoing  are
hereinafter sometimes referred to individually as a "Transfer", and collectively
                                                     --------
as "Transfers",  any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is
    ---------
hereinafter sometimes referred to as a "Transferee",  and any person by whom any
                                        ----------
Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter  sometimes referred to as a
"Transferor").  Tenant shall remain  primarily liable for all of its obligations
 ----------
under this Lease,  notwithstanding any Transfer.  No consent granted by Landlord
shall be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent Transfer. Tenant shall pay all
of Landlord's attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any
consent  requested  by Tenant  or in  considering  any  proposed  Transfer.  Any
Transfer without Landlord's prior written consent shall be void. If Tenant shall
assign this Lease or sublet or otherwise  Transfer the Premises,  or any portion
thereof to any party other than a Permitted  Transferee (as defined below),  any
rights of Tenant to renew this Lease, to extend the Term or to lease  additional
space in the Project shall be  extinguished  thereby and will not be transferred
to the Transferee, all such rights being personal to the Tenant named herein. In
addition,  Tenant shall not, without  Landlord's  prior written  consent,  which
Landlord may withhold in its reasonable discretion, mortgage, pledge or encumber
this Lease, the term or estate hereby granted or any interest hereunder.

         17.2  Landlord's  Consent. Landlord will not unreasonably  withhold its
               -------------------
consent  to any  proposed  Transfer.  It shall be  reasonable  for  Landlord  to
withhold  its consent to any  Transfer if (a) an Event of Default  exists  under
this  Lease,  (b) the  proposed  Transferee  is a tenant  in the  Project  or an
affiliate  of such a  tenant  or a  party  that  Landlord  has  identified  as a
prospective tenant in the Project, (c) the financial  responsibility,  nature of
business,  and  character  of the  proposed  Transferee  are not all  reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord, (d) in the reasonable judgment of Landlord the purpose
for which the Transferee  intends to use the Premises (or a portion  thereof) is
not in keeping with Landlord's standards for the Building or are in violation of
the terms of this Lease or any other leases in the Project,  or (e) the proposed
Transferee is a

                                       32
<PAGE>

government  entity,  The foregoing shall not exclude any other  reasonable basis
for Landlord to withhold its consent.

         17.3  Procedure. Tenant shall notify Landlord of any proposed  Transfer
               ---------
at least thirty (30) days prior to its proposed effective date. The notice shall
include  the  name  and  address  of  the  proposed  Transferee,  its  corporate
affiliates  in the  case of a  corporation  and its  partners  in the  case of a
partnership, a description of the portion of the Premises that is subject to the
Transfer (the "Transfer  Premises"),  a calculation of the Transfer  Premium (as
               ------------------
defined in Section  17.5 below)  payable in  connection  with the  Transfer,  an
executed copy of the proposed Transfer agreement,  and sufficient information to
permit Landlord to determine the financial  responsibility  and character of the
proposed Transferee  (including,  without limitation,  the most recent financial
statements for the proposed Transferee).  As a condition to the effectiveness of
any  assignment  of this  Lease,  the  assignee  shall  execute  and  deliver to
Landlord,  prior  to the  effective  date  of the  assignment,  a  consent  form
satisfactory to Landlord providing for, among other things, an assumption of all
of  the  obligations  of  Tenant  under  this  Lease.  As  a  condition  to  the
effectiveness  of any other  Transfer,  Transferee  shall execute and deliver to
Landlord,  prior  to the  effective  date  of  such  Transfer,  a  consent  form
satisfactory to Landlord,  providing,  among other things,  (a) the Transferee's
obligation to indemnify  Landlord and the other Landlord Parties consistent with
Tenant's  indemnification   obligations  in  Section  8.2  above,  and  (b)  the
Transferee's  agreement that any such Transfer shall be subordinate  and subject
to the  provisions of this Lease,  and if this Lease shall be terminated  during
the term of any such Transfer,  Landlord shall have the right to: (i) treat such
Transfer as cancelled and  repossess the Transfer  Premises by any lawful means,
or (ii)  require that the  Transferee  attorn to and  recognize  Landlord as its
landlord  under any such  Transfer.  If Tenant  shall  default  and fail to cure
within the time  permitted for cure under  Section 12 above,  Landlord is hereby
irrevocably  authorized,  as Tenant's agent and attorney-in-fact,  to direct any
Transferee  to make all  payments  under  or in  connection  with  the  Transfer
directly to Landlord  (which Landlord shall apply towards  Tenant's  obligations
under this Lease) until such default is cured.

         17.4 Change of Management or Ownership. Any direct or indirect transfer
              ---------------------------------
of 50% or more of the ownership interest in Tenant (a "Change of Control") shall
                                                       -----------------
constitute an assignment  of this Lease,  provided that the foregoing  shall not
apply so long as Tenant's  stock is publicly held and traded  through a national
stock exchange or NASDAQ.

         17.5  Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary in
               -------------------
this Section 17, if an Event of Default  does not then exist,  Tenant may assign
this  Lease or sublet  any  portion of the  Premises  (hereinafter  collectively
referred to as a "Permitted  Transfer") to (a) a parent or subsidiary of Tenant,
                  -------------------
or an entity under  common  control with  Tenant,  (b) any  successor  entity to
Tenant  by  way of  merger,  consolidation  or  other  non-bankruptcy  corporate
reorganization,  or (c) an entity  which  acquires all or  substantially  all of
Tenant's  assets  or  stock   (collectively,   "Permitted   Transferees",   and,
                                                -----------------------
individually,  a  "Permitted  Transferee"),  and  Tenant  may engage in a deemed
                   ---------------------
assignment of this Lease by means of a Change of Control as set forth in Section
17.4  above;  provided  that (i) at least ten (10)  business  days  prior to the
Transfer,  Tenant notifies Landlord of such Transfer, and supplies Landlord with
any documents or  information  reasonably  requested by Landlord  regarding such
Transfer or Permitted Transferee,  including,  but not limited to, copies of the
sublease or instrument of assignment and copies of documents establishing to the
reasonable  satisfaction  of Landlord  that the  transaction  in question

                                       33
<PAGE>

is one permitted under this Section 17.5, (ii) except in the case of a Change of
Control or if such  assumption  occurs by  operation  of law,  Tenant  furnishes
Landlord, at least ten (10) business days prior to the Transfer,  with a written
document executed by the proposed Permitted  Transferee in which, in the case of
an assignment,  such entity assumes all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease
with  respect to the  Transfer  Premises,  and, in the case of a sublease,  such
entity agrees to sublease the Transfer Premises subject to this Lease,  (iii) in
the case of a Transfer  pursuant to clause (b) above,  the successor entity must
have a net worth  (computed in accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles,  except that intangible assets such as goodwill, patents, copyrights
and trademarks,  as well as any acquisition-related  reserves, shall be excluded
in the  calculation  ("Net Worth")) at the time of the Transfer that is at least
                       ---------
equal to the Net Worth of Tenant  immediately  prior to such Transfer,  and (iv)
any such proposed  Transfer is made for a good faith operating  business purpose
and not,  whether in a single  transaction  or in a series of  transactions,  be
entered into as a subterfuge to evade the obligations and restrictions  relating
to Transfers set forth in this Section 17.

         17.6 Transfer Premium.
              ----------------

            (a) If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto which
the parties hereby agree is  reasonable,  Landlord shall be entitled to receive,
as  Additional  Rent  hereunder,  fifty  percent  (50%) of any Transfer  Premium
derived from such Transfer.  As used herein,  the term "Transfer  Premium" means
                                                        -----------------
(i) (A) in the case of an  assignment,  any  consideration  (including,  without
limitation,  payment for leasehold improvements) paid by the assignee on account
of  such  assignment,  and (B) in the  case of any  other  Transfer,  all  rent,
additional rent or other  consideration paid by the Transferee to the Transferor
pursuant to such Transfer in excess of the base rent and additional rent payable
by such Transferor during the term of the Transfer on a per rentable square foot
basis minus (ii) any brokerage  commissions (not to exceed commissions typically
paid in the market at the time of such  subletting or assignment) and reasonable
attorneys'   fees  paid  by   Transferor   in   connection   with  the  Transfer
(collectively, "Recoverable Expenses"), unless the deduction of such Recoverable
                --------------------
Expenses is waived by Transferor pursuant to Section 17.6(b) below. For purposes
of  calculating  the  Transfer  Premium  in  connection  with  a  sublease,  the
Recoverable Expenses shall be deducted, on an amortized basis, without interest,
over the term of the  sublease.  Payment of the portion of the Transfer  Premium
due Landlord hereunder shall be a joint and several obligation of Tenant and the
Transferee,  and shall be made to  Landlord  as  follows:  (1) in the case of an
assignment,  the Transferor shall pay the portion of the Transfer Premium due to
Landlord  within ten (10) days after the Transferor  receives the  consideration
described in clause (i)(A) above; and (2) in the case of any other Transfer,  on
the first day of each month  during  the term of the  Transfer,  the  Transferee
shall pay directly to Landlord  fifty  percent  (50%) of the amount by which the
rent,  additional rent or other  consideration  due from the Transferee for such
month exceeds (x) the base rent and  additional  rent payable by the  applicable
Transferor for said month which is allocable to the Transfer Premises,  plus (y)
the amortized  amount of Recoverable  Expenses  allocated to such month,  unless
such Recoverable  Expenses are waived by Transferor pursuant to Section 17.6(b).
This Section 17.6 shall not apply to a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee.

            (b) Within  sixty (60) days after  request by  Landlord,  Transferor
shall provide Landlord a written  statement,  together with reasonably  detailed
invoices  therefor,  certifying  the total  amount of  Recoverable  Expenses  in
connection with any Transfer and

                                       34
<PAGE>

Tenant's  calculation of the Transfer  Premium.  If Transferor  fails to provide
such  statement  and  invoices  to  Landlord  within the sixty (60) day  period,
Transferor shall be deemed to have waived the deduction of Recoverable  Expenses
in determining the Transfer Premium. Landlord or its authorized  representatives
shall have the right at all  reasonable  times to audit the books,  records  and
papers of Tenant,  and any other Transferor,  relating to a Transfer,  and shall
have the right to make copies thereof.  If the Transfer  Premium  respecting any
Transfer shall be found to be  understated,  Tenant shall,  within ten (10) days
after demand,  pay the deficiency;  and, if understated by more than two percent
(2%), Tenant shall pay Landlord's costs of such audit.

         17.7 Recapture. In the case of a proposed assignment of this Lease or a
              ---------
proposed  sublease of all of the Premises for substantially the remainder of the
Term  (i.e.,  less  than  six  (6)  months  remain  at the  end of the  proposed
sublease),  in  either  case to any party  other  than a  Permitted  Transferee,
Landlord  may  terminate  this  Lease  by  giving  Tenant  written  notice  (the
"Recapture  Notice")  within  thirty (30) days after  Landlord's  receipt of the
 -----------------
proposed fully executed  Transfer  agreement  submitted by Tenant for Landlord's
consent.  Such  termination  shall be effective as of the  termination  date set
forth in Landlord's Recapture Notice, and all obligations of Landlord and Tenant
under this Lease shall  expire as of such  termination  date,  except those that
expressly survive any termination of this Lease.

         17.8 Tenant Remedies.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
              ---------------
Lease, if Tenant claims that Landlord has  unreasonably  withheld or delayed its
consent  under this Section 17 or otherwise  has breached or acted  unreasonably
under this Section 17, Tenant's sole remedy shall be declaratory judgment and an
injunction for the relief sought or damages,  and Tenant hereby waives all other
remedies,  including,  without  limitation,  any right provided under California
Civil Code Section 1995.310 or other applicable laws to terminate this Lease..

      18.  CONVEYANCE  BY LANDLORD.  If Landlord  shall at any time transfer its
           -----------------------
interest  in the  Project or this Lease,  Landlord  shall be  released  from any
obligations  occurring  after such transfer,  except the obligation to return to
Tenant any security  deposit not delivered to its  transferee,  and Tenant shall
look solely to Landlord's  successors for performance of such obligations.  This
Lease shall not be affected by any such transfer.

      19.  ESTOPPEL  CERTIFICATE.  Each party shall,  within ten (10) days after
           ---------------------
receiving a request from the other party,  execute,  acknowledge  in  recordable
form,  and deliver to the other  party or its  designee a  certificate  stating,
subject to a specific statement of any applicable exceptions, that this Lease as
amended  to date is in full force and  effect,  that  Tenant is paying  Rent and
other charges on a current  basis,  and that to the best of the knowledge of the
certifying  party,  the other party has committed no uncured defaults and has no
offsets or claims.  The certifying  party may also be required to state the date
of commencement of payment of Rent, the Commencement Date, the Termination Date,
the Base  Rent,  the  current  Operating  Cost  Share  Rent and Tax  Share  Rent
estimates,  the status of any improvements required to be completed by Landlord,
the amount of any security deposit,  and such other matters as may be reasonably
requested. Tenant's failure to execute or deliver an estoppel certificate in the
required  time period  shall  constitute  an  acknowledgment  by Tenant that the
statements  included in the estoppel  certificate are true and correct,  without
exception.

      20.  SECURITY  DEPOSIT.  Tenant shall  deposit  with  Landlord on the date
           -----------------
Tenant  executes and delivers  this Lease the cash sum set forth in the Schedule
for the  Security  Deposit.  The Security  Deposit  shall be held by Landlord as
security for the faithful  performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under
this Lease.

         20.1  Application  of Security  Deposit.  Tenant agrees that, if Tenant
               ---------------------------------
fails to pay any Rent,  or otherwise  defaults  with respect to any provision of
this Lease,  Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to), and without prejudice
to any other  remedy  available  to  Landlord,  use,  apply or retain all or any
portion of the  Security  Deposit  for the payment of any Rent in default or for
the payment of any other sum to which Landlord may become obligated by reason of
Tenant's  default,  or to  compensate  Landlord  for any  loss or  damage  which
Landlord may suffer thereby, including, without limitation,  prospective damages
and damages  recoverable  pursuant to California  Civil Code Section 1951.2.  If
Landlord uses or applies all or any portion of the Security  Deposit as provided
above, Tenant shall,  within three (3) days after demand therefor,  deposit cash
with  Landlord in an amount  sufficient  to restore the Security  Deposit to the
full amount thereof,  and Tenant's failure to do so shall, at Landlord's option,
be an Event of Default under this Lease with no  opportunity  to cure. If Tenant
performs all of Tenant's obligations hereunder, the Security Deposit, or so much
thereof as has not  theretofore  been applied by Landlord,  shall be returned to
Tenant (or, at  Landlord's  option,  to the last  assignee,  if any, of Tenant's
interest  hereunder) within thirty (30) days following the later to occur of (a)
the expiration of the Term of this Lease or (b) Tenant's  vacation and surrender
of the Premises in accordance with the requirements of this Lease. Tenant waives
the  provisions  of  California  Civil Code  Section  1950.7,  or any similar or
successor  laws now or hereinafter  in effect,  that restrict  Landlord's use or
application of the Deposit,  or that provide specific time periods for return of
the Deposit.  Landlord shall not be deemed to hold the Security Deposit in trust
nor be required to keep the Security  Deposit  separate from its general  funds,
and Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the  Security  Deposit.  The
Security  Deposit  shall not be  construed  as an  advance  payment  of Rent nor
liquidated  damages,  and if  Landlord's  claims  hereunder  exceed the Security
Deposit, Tenant shall remain liable for the balance of such claims.

         20.2  Transfer of Security Deposit. If Landlord  transfers its interest
               ----------------------------
in the Project or this Lease,  Landlord shall  transfer the Security  Deposit to
its transferee. Upon such transfer, Landlord shall have no further obligation to
return the Security  Deposit to Tenant,  and Tenant's right to the return of the
Security Deposit shall apply solely against Landlord's transferee.

the  Premises,  parking  areas,  and/or  Project) are not  materially  impaired,
impeded, or otherwise  materially and adversely  affected,  or Tenant's costs or

               --------
whenever a party's  consent or approval is required  hereunder,  such consent or
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

      26. UNRELATED  BUSINESS  INCOME.  If Landlord is advised by its counsel at
          ---------------------------
any time that any part of the  payments by Tenant to  Landlord  under this Lease
may be  characterized  as  unrelated  business  income  under the United  States
Internal  Revenue  Code and its  regulations,  then Tenant  shall enter into any
amendment  proposed by Landlord to avoid such income,  so long as the  amendment
does not require  Tenant to make more  payments or accept  fewer  services  from
Landlord, than this Lease provides.

      27. BUILDING  RENOVATIONS.  It is specifically  understood and agreed that
          ---------------------
Landlord has made no  representation or warranty to Tenant and has no obligation
and has made no  promises  to  alter,  remodel,  improve,  renovate,  repair  or
decorate the Premises, Building, or

                                       41
<PAGE>

any part thereof and that no  representations  respecting  the  condition of the
Premises  or the  Building  have  been  made by  Landlord  to  Tenant  except as
specifically set forth herein. However, Tenant hereby acknowledges that Landlord
may during the Lease Term renovate, improve, alter, or modify (collectively, the
"Renovations")  the Project,  the Building and/or the Premises including without
limitation the parking structure, common areas, systems and equipment, roof, and
structural  portions  of  the  same,  which  Renovations  may  include,  without
limitation,  (a) installing  sprinklers in the Building  common areas and tenant
spaces,  (b)  modifying  the  common  areas and  tenant  spaces  to comply  with
Governmental  Requirements,  including  regulations  relating to the  physically
disabled,  seismic  conditions,  and  building  safety  and  security,  and  (c)
installing  new floor  covering,  lighting,  and wall  coverings in the Building
common areas, and in connection with any Renovations,  Landlord may, among other
things, erect scaffolding or other necessary  structures in the Building,  limit
or eliminate access to portions of the Project, including portions of the common
areas,  or perform work in the Building,  which work may create  noise,  dust or
leave debris in the Building.  Tenant hereby  agrees that such  Renovations  and
Landlord's  actions  in  connection  with  such  Renovations  shall  in  no  way
constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement
of Rent.  Landlord shall have no  responsibility  or for any reason be liable to
Tenant  for any  direct or  indirect  injury to or  interference  with  Tenant's
business  arising  from the  Renovations,  nor shall  Tenant be  entitled to any
compensation  or damages  from  Landlord for loss of the use of the whole or any
part of the Premises or of Tenant's personal property or improvements  resulting
from the Renovations or Landlord's  actions in connection with such Renovations,
or for  any  inconvenience  or  annoyance  occasioned  by  such  Renovations  or
Landlord's  actions.  Notwithstanding  any provisions to the contrary  contained
herein, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts in the performance of
any Renovations to minimize  interference  with the conduct of Tenant's business
in the Premises and Tenant's parking rights hereunder;  and, with respect to any
Renovations  which could interfere with the conduct of Tenant's  business in the
Premises or Tenant's  parking rights  hereunder,  Landlord shall,  except in the
event of an  emergency,  provide  Tenant with at least  twenty-four  (24) hours'
prior  notice  (which  may be  verbal  and/or  be sent  by  e-mail  to  Tenant's
facilities manager).

handling,  transportation,  storage, treatment, disposal or use of any Hazardous

or invitees shall strictly comply with all applicable Governmental Requirements.
Tenant shall be solely  responsible for obtaining and complying with all permits

Section 28, or unless required by any lender or governmental agency), to inspect
the Premises and conduct tests and investigations to determine whether Tenant is
in compliance  with the provisions of this Section 28. The  reasonable  costs of
all such  inspections,  tests  and  investigations  required  by any  lender  or
governmental agency as a result of Tenant's handling,  use, storage,  treatment,
transportation or disposal of any Hazardous  Substances shall be borne solely by
Tenant. The foregoing rights granted to Landlord shall not, however,  create (i)
a duty on Landlord's part to inspect,  test,  investigate,  monitor or otherwise
observe  the  Premises  or the  activities  of Tenant or any  Tenant  Party with
respect  to  Hazardous  Substances,  including,  but not  limited  to,  Tenant's

invitees,  Tenant shall provide written notice to Landlord fully  describing the
event.  Tenant  shall  also  provide  Landlord  with a copy of any  document  or
correspondence submitted by or on behalf of Tenant to any regulatory agency as a
result of or in connection with the  unauthorized  release,  spill or discharge.
Within  twenty-four  (24) hours of receipt by Tenant of any  warning,  notice of

the expiration or earlier  termination of this Lease until all Claims within the
scope of this  Section  28 are  fully,  finally,  and  absolutely  barred by the
applicable  statutes of  limitations.  If it is  determined by Landlord that the
condition of all or any portion of the Premises,  the Building or the Project is
not in compliance  with the  provisions of this Section 28,  including,  but not
limited  to all  applicable  Governmental  Requirements  relating  to  Hazardous
Substances,  at the  expiration  or  earlier  termination  of this  Lease,  then
Landlord, in its sole discretion,  may require Tenant to hold over possession of
the  Premises  until  Tenant can  surrender  the  Premises  to  Landlord  in the
condition  required  under  Section  14 above  and in full  compliance  with the
provisions of this Section 28. The burden of proof under this Section 28.5 shall
be upon  Tenant.  For  purposes of Section 14, the term  "normal  wear and tear"
shall not include any  deterioration in the condition or diminution of the value
of any  portion  of the  Premises,  the  Building  or the  Project in any manner
whatsoever  related  directly or  indirectly to Hazardous  Substances.  Any such
holdover by Tenant shall be with Landlord's  consent,  will not be terminable by
Tenant in any event or circumstance  and will otherwise be subject to Section 15

                                     ------------------
shall be  exercisable  only by giving  Landlord  unconditional  and  irrevocable
written notice ("Reduction Notice") thereof within one hundred twenty (120) days
                 ----------------
after Tenant's  execution of this Lease.  If Tenant fails to timely exercise the
Reduction  Option,  Tenant's  exercise of the Reduction Option shall be null and
void.  In  addition,  Tenant's  exercise  of  the  Reduction  Option  shall,  at
Landlord's  election,  be null and void if any Event of Default by Tenant  under
this Lease exists on the date of Landlord's receipt of Tenant's Reduction Notice
or at any time thereafter prior to the Surrender Date (as hereafter defined). If
Tenant exercises the Reduction Option, the reduction in the size of the Premises
shall be effective as of the date that is thirty (30) days after the date of the
Reduction Notice (the "Surrender  Date"), and Tenant shall surrender the portion
                       ---------------
of the Premises  other than the  Remainder  Premises (the  "Deletion  Space") to
                                                            ---------------
Landlord in the  condition  required  pursuant to Section 14 hereof on or before
the Surrender Date. If Tenant fails to so vacate and surrender possession of the
Deletion Space on the Surrender  Date, the provisions of Section 15 hereof shall
apply to Tenant's  continued  occupancy.  At  Landlord's  request,  Tenant shall

                                       47

of  the  Premises   (including   proportionate   reductions  in  Base  Rent  and
Proportionate Share).

         32.2  Personal to Tenant. The Reduction  Option is personal to, and may
               ------------------
be  exercised  only by, the  original  named  Tenant  hereunder  or a  Permitted
Transferee.  If Tenant  assigns  this Lease or sublets all or any portion of the
Premises  other  than to a  Permitted  Transferee,  then  immediately  upon such
assignment or subletting,  Tenant's right to exercise the Reduction Option shall
simultaneously  terminate and be of no further  force or effect.  No assignee or
subtenant other than a Permitted Transferee shall have any right to exercise the
Reduction Option.

         32.3 If Tenant exercises the Reduction Option, then, within thirty (30)
days after the Surrender Date, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense,  shall make
such alterations that (i) Landlord deems reasonably  necessary or appropriate to
demise the Remainder  Premises,  and (ii)Tenant  deems  reasonably  necessary or
appropriate to create access from the Remainder Premises to the freight elevator
in the dock area. Such alterations shall comply with the requirements of Section
5 above.

         -----------------------------------------
expense, shall comply with all Governmental Requirements and CC&Rs applicable to

Building's  rooftop  shall  be and  remain  in  compliance  with all  rules  and
regulations of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health  Administration  ("OSHA")
                                                                          ----
and the FCC  relating to  guidelines  for human  exposure to radio  frequency or
electromagnetic  emission levels, as may be issued from time to time,  including

                               Exhibit B, Page 5
<PAGE>

not limited to the rules and  regulations  adopted in FCC document OET 65 (which
rules and  regulations  have also been  adopted  by OSHA).  If  Landlord  in its
reasonable  judgment  believes  that  the  Equipment,  either  by  itself  or in
conjunction  with other  equipment in or on the Building,  may exceed  permitted
emission levels, then Tenant shall (a) promptly upon Landlord's written request,
deliver to  Landlord a  reasonably  acceptable  certification  or survey  report
demonstrating  that the Building's  rooftop is in compliance with all applicable
FCC and OSHA rules and regulations (a "Rooftop  Survey"),  and (b) to the extent
                                       ---------------
Tenant's  equipment or the operation  thereof directly or indirectly  causes the
Building's  rooftop (or any section  thereof) not to be in compliance  with such
rules and  regulations,  promptly remedy any such  non-compliance  in accordance
with Landlord's  reasonable directions and at Tenant's sole cost and expense. If
Tenant  (i)  relocates  or makes any change to the  Equipment  or (ii) makes any
change to any equipment or operation thereof that directly or indirectly affects
the operation of the Equipment,  Landlord may, at its option, require that a new
Rooftop Survey be conducted at Tenant's sole cost and expense by a firm approved
by Landlord in its reasonable discretion.

      8.  Temporary  Removal;  Relocation.  Tenant,  at its sole expense,  shall
          -------------------------------
remove or relocate the  Equipment  on a temporary  basis and upon ten (10) days'
written  notice from  Landlord at any time Landlord  determines  such removal or
relocation is reasonably  necessary or appropriate for the  expeditious  repair,
replacement,  alteration, improvement or additions to or of the roof or any area
of the Cable Path, or to access any such areas for Building  needs. In addition,
Landlord  reserves  the  right to  require  that the  Equipment  be  permanently
relocated on not less than thirty (30) days' prior  written  notice,  to another
location on the roof as Landlord shall reasonably designate.

      9.  Termination;  Equipment As Property of Tenant.  Upon the expiration or
          ---------------------------------------------
earlier  termination  of the Lease,  Tenant  shall  immediately  cease using the
Satellite Dish Roof Area and Cable Path and shall,  at its own cost and expense,
remove the Equipment and restore the Satellite Dish Roof Area and areas affected
by the cabling  installations to the condition in which they were found prior to
the  installation  of the  Equipment,  reasonable  wear and tear  excepted.  The
Equipment shall be considered personal property of Tenant; provided, however, if
Tenant fails timely to remove the  Equipment,  it shall be deemed  abandoned and
may be claimed by Landlord  or removed  and  disposed of by Landlord at Tenant's
expense.

      10.  Landlord   Exculpation.   Tenant  assumes  full   responsibility  for
           ----------------------
protecting  from theft or damage the  Equipment and any other tools or equipment
that Tenant may use in connection with the installation, operation, use, repair,
maintenance  or removal of the  Equipment,  assumes  all risk of theft,  loss or
damage, and waives any Claim with respect thereto against Landlord and the other
Landlord Parties. Further, in no event shall Landlord or any Landlord Parties be
liable under any circumstances  for any  consequential  damages or for injury or
damage to, or interference with,  Tenant's  business,  including but not limited
to,  loss  of  profits,  loss of  rents  or  other  revenues,  loss of  business
opportunity,  loss of goodwill or loss of use,  resulting  from damage to or any
failure or interruption of use of the Equipment, however occurring.

      11. Insurance; Indemnity.
          --------------------

         (a) Tenant shall cause the insurance policies required to be maintained
pursuant to Section 8 of the Lease to cover the Equipment and any Claims arising
in  connection  with  the  presence,  use,  operation,   installation,   repair,
maintenance, or removal of the Equipment.

         (b)  Tenant  hereby  agrees  to  protect,  defend,  indemnify  and hold
Landlord and the other  Landlord  Parties,  and each of them,  harmless from and
against  any and all  Claims  arising  from or  connected  in any way  with  the
Equipment  or the  operations  of Tenant or any  Tenant  Parties  in  connection
therewith  (except,  with respect to any Landlord Party, to the extent caused by
the gross negligence or willful or criminal misconduct of such Landlord Party or
otherwise   prohibited  by  Governmental   Requirements),   including,   without
limitation,  (i) all foreseeable and unforeseeable  consequential  damages, (ii)
any violation of Governmental  Requirements,  and (iii) any personal injuries or
property damage. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of the Lease.

      12.  Rights  Personal to Tenant.  Tenant's  rights under Section 31 of the
           --------------------------
Lease are  personal  to the  original  named  Tenant  therein,  and shall not be
transferable or assignable,  whether  voluntarily or  involuntarily,  whether by
operation of law or otherwise,  either in  connection  with an assignment of the
Lease, or a sublease of all or part of the Premises,  or otherwise to any person
or entity that has satisfied the  requirements  of Section 17 of the Lease.  Any
purported transfer of any license hereunder shall be void and a material default
under the Lease.

                            BYLAW II.  SHAREHOLDERS

      Section 2.01.  Annual Meeting.  The annual shareholders meeting shall be
held in the month of April of each year, at such time and place, either in or
outside the state of Wisconsin, as may be designated by the Board of Directors,

business as may come before the meeting; provided, however, that if not so
designated, the annual meeting shall be held on the third Tuesday in April in
each year.

      Section 2.02.  Special Meetings.  Special shareholders' meetings may be
called by: (a) the chairman of the board; (b) the president; (c) the Board of
Directors or by such other officer(s) as it may authorize from time to time; or
(d) the president or secretary upon the written request of the holders of
record of at least 10% of all the votes entitled to be cast upon the matter(s)
set forth as the purpose of the meeting in such written request.  Upon delivery
to the president or secretary of a written request pursuant to (d), above,
stating the purpose(s) of the requested meeting, dated and signed by the
person(s) entitled to request such a meeting, it shall be the duty
                                       -1-
of such officer to whom the request is delivered to give notice of the meeting
to shareholders.  Notice of any special meetings shall be given in the same
manner provided in Section 2.04 of these Bylaws.  Only business within the
purpose described in this special meeting notice shall be conducted at a
special shareholders' meeting.
<PAGE>
      Section 2.03.  Place of Meeting.  The Board of Directors may designate
any place, either in or outside the state of Wisconsin, as the place of meeting
for any annual or special meeting.  If no designation is made by the Board of
Directors, the place of meeting shall be the corporation's principal office.

      Section 2.04.  Notice of Meeting.  The corporation shall notify each
shareholder who is entitled to vote at the meeting, of the date, time and place
of each annual or special shareholders' meeting.  In the case of special
meetings, the notice shall also contain the purpose of such special meeting.
The meeting notice shall be given not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days
before the meeting date.  Notice of a meeting must be sent by mail to the
shareholder's address shown in the corporation's current record of
shareholders.

      Section 2.05.  Waiver.  Notice of any shareholders' meeting may be waived
by a shareholder, before or after the date and time stated in the notice.  The
waiver must be in writing, contain the same information that would have been
required in the notice (except the time and place of the meeting need not be
stated), be signed by the shareholder, and be delivered to the corporation for
inclusion in the corporate records.

      Section 2.06.  Fixing of Record Date.  For the purpose of determining
shareholders of any voting group entitled to notice of or to vote at any
meeting of shareholders, or shareholders entitled to receive payment of any
distribution or dividend, or in order to make a determination of shareholders
for any other proper purpose, the Board of Directors may fix a future date as
the record date.  Such record date shall not be more than 70 days prior to the
date on which the particular action, requiring such determination of
shareholders, is to be taken.  If no record date is so fixed by the board, the
record date for determination of such shareholders shall be at the close of
business on:

            (a)  With respect to the payment of a share dividend, the date the
      board authorizes the share dividend;

            (b)  With respect to a distribution to shareholders (other than one
      involving a repurchase or reacquisition of shares), the date the board
      authorizes the distribution; or

            (c)  With respect to any other matter for which such a
      determination is required, as provided by law.

When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of
shareholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination
shall apply to any adjournment thereof
                                       -2-
unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date which it must do if the
meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for the
original meeting.

      Section 2.07.  Voting List.  After fixing a record date for a meeting,
the corporation shall prepare a list of the names of all of its shareholders
who are entitled to notice of a shareholders' meeting.  The list shall be
arranged by class or series of shares and show the address of and number of
shares held by each shareholder.  The corporation shall make the shareholders'
list available for inspection by any shareholder, beginning two business days
after notice of the meeting is given for which the list was prepared and
<PAGE>
continuing to the date of the meeting, at the corporation's principal office
(or at the place identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting
will be held).  The corporation shall make the shareholders' list available at
the meeting, and any shareholder or his agent or attorney may inspect the list
at any time during the meeting or any adjournment.

      Section 2.08.  Quorum and Voting Requirements.  Except as otherwise
provided by the articles of incorporation, these Bylaws, or any provision of
Chapter 180, a majority of the shares entitled to vote on all matters to be
voted on at the shareholders' meeting, represented in person or by proxy, shall
constitute a quorum.  If a quorum is present, action on a matter is approved if
the number of votes in favor of the action is greater than the number of votes
against, unless the vote of a greater number of the voting group is required by
the articles of incorporation, these Bylaws, or any provision of Chapter 180.
Amendment of the articles of incorporation requires the affirmative vote of
two-thirds of all voting groups of this corporation in addition to any other
vote required by any provision of Chapter 180.  Even though less than a quorum
is represented, a majority of the shares represented at the meeting may adjourn
the meeting without further notice.  At the adjourned meeting at which a quorum
shall be represented, any business may be transacted that might have been
transacted at the meeting as originally notified.

      Section 2.09.  Conduct of Meetings.  The president or such member of the
Board of Directors as may be designated by the President to act as chairman of
a meeting of shareholders, or in the absence of the president and such
designation, the chairman of the board, or, in their respective absences, any
person chosen by the shareholders present shall call the meeting of the
shareholders to order and shall act as chairman of the meeting.  The
corporation's secretary shall act as secretary of all meetings of the
shareholders, but, in his absence, the presiding officer may appoint any
assistant secretary or other person to act as secretary of the meeting.

      Section 2.10.  Proxies.  At all shareholders' meetings, a shareholder
entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy appointed in writing by the
shareholder or by his duly authorized attorney-in-fact.  A proxy shall become
effective when received by the secretary or other officer or agent of the
corporation authorized to tabulate votes.  Unless otherwise provided in the
proxy, a proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted, either by written
notice filed with the secretary or other officer or agent of the corporation
authorized to tabulate votes, or by oral notice given by the shareholder during
the meeting.  The presence of a shareholder who has filed his proxy shall not
of itself constitute a revocation.  No proxy shall be valid after 11 months
from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy.  The
Board of Directors shall
                                       -3-
have the power and authority to make rules establishing presumptions as to the
validity and sufficiency of proxies.

      Section 2.11.  Voting of Shares.  Each outstanding share shall be
entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at a shareholders'
meeting, except to the extent that the voting rights of the shares of any class
or classes are enlarged, limited or denied by the articles of incorporation or
as otherwise required by Chapter 180.

      Section 2.12.  Voting of Shares by Certain Holders.

            (a)   Other Corporations.  Shares standing in another corporation's
      name may be voted either in person or by proxy, by the other
<PAGE>
      corporation's president or any other officer appointed by the president.
      A proxy executed by any principal officer of the other corporation or
      such an officer's assistant shall be conclusive evidence of the signer's
      authority to act, in the absence of express notice to this corporation,
      given in writing to this corporation's secretary, or other officer or
      agent of the corporation authorized to tabulate votes, of the designation
      of some other person by the corporation's Board of Directors or Bylaws.

            (b)   Legal Representatives and Fiduciaries.  Shares held by an
      administrator, executor, guardian, conservator, trustee in bankruptcy,
      receiver, or assignee for creditors, in a fiduciary capacity, may be
      voted by the fiduciary, either in person or by proxy, without
      transferring the shares into his name, provided that there is filed with
      the secretary, before or at the time of the meeting, proper evidence of
      his incumbency and the number of shares held.  Shares standing in a
      fiduciary's name may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy.  A
      proxy executed by a fiduciary shall be conclusive evidence of the
      fiduciary's authority to give such proxy, in the absence of express
      notice to the corporation, given in writing to the corporation's
      secretary, or other officer or agent of the corporation authorized to
      tabulate votes, that this manner of voting is expressly prohibited or
      otherwise directed by the document creating the fiduciary relationship.

            (c)   Pledgees.  A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be
      entitled to vote the shares until they have been transferred into the
      pledgee's name, and thereafter the pledgee shall be entitled to vote the
      shares so transferred.

            (d)   Minors.  Shares held by a minor may be voted by the minor in
      person or by proxy, and no such vote shall be subject to disaffirmance or
      avoidance unless before the vote the corporation's secretary, or other
      officer or agent of the corporation authorized to tabulate votes, has
      received written notice or has actual knowledge that the shareholder is a
      minor.

            (e)   Incompetents and Spendthrifts.  Shares held by an incompetent
      or spendthrift may be voted by the incompetent or spendthrift in person
      or by proxy, and no such vote shall be subject to disaffirmance or
      avoidance unless before the vote the
                                       -4-
      corporation's secretary, or other officer or agent of the corporation
      authorized to tabulate votes, has actual knowledge that the shareholder
      has been adjudicated an incompetent or spendthrift or actual knowledge
      that judicial proceedings for appointment of a guardian have been filed.

            (f)   Joint Tenants.  Shares registered in the names of two or more
      individuals who are named in the registration as joint tenants may be
      voted in person or by proxy signed by one or more of the joint tenants if
      either (1) no other joint tenant or his legal representative is present
      and claims the right to participate in the voting of the shares or,

whether before or after the time of the meeting.  The waiver must be in
writing, signed by the director, and retained in the corporate record book.
The director's attendance at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of
<PAGE>
the meeting, except when a director attends a meeting for the express purpose
of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not
lawfully called or convened.  Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the
purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors need be

transacting business at the meeting; or (b) minutes of the meeting are prepared
and his dissent or abstention from the action taken is entered in the minutes

nonassessable by the corporation.

      Section 8.05.  Transfer of Shares.  Transfers of shares in the
corporation shall be made on the corporation's books only by the registered
shareholder, by his legal guardian, executor, or administrator, or by his or
her attorney authorized by a power of attorney duly executed and filed with the
corporation's secretary or with a transfer agent appointed by the Board of
Directors, and on surrender of the certificate or certificates for the shares.
Where a share certificate is presented to the corporation with a request to
register for transfer, the corporation shall not be liable to the owner or any
other person suffering a loss as a result of the registration of transfer if
(a) there were on or with the certificate the necessary endorsements, and (b)
the corporation had no duty to inquire into adverse claims or has discharged
the duty.  The corporation may require
                                       -14-
reasonable assurance that the endorsements are genuine and effective in
compliance with such other regulations as may be prescribed by or under the
Board of Directors' authority.  The person in whose name shares stand on the
corporation's books shall, to the full extent permitted by law, be deemed the
owner of the shares for all purposes.
<PAGE>
      Section 8.06.  Lost, Destroyed or Stolen Certificates.  If an owner
claims that his share certificate has been lost, destroyed, or wrongfully
taken, a new certificate shall be issued in place of the original certificate
if the owner (a) so requests before the corporation has notice that the shares
have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser; (b) files with the corporation a
sufficient indemnity bond (unless such bond is waived by the Board of
Directors); and (c) satisfies such other reasonable requirements as may be
prescribed by or under the authority of the Board of Directors.

      Section 8.07.  Stock Regulations.  The Board of Directors shall have the
power and authority to make all such further rules and regulations not
inconsistent with the statutes of the state of Wisconsin as they may deem
expedient concerning the registration of certificates representing shares of
the corporation.

                           BYLAW IX.  DISTRIBUTIONS

      The Board of Directors may make distributions to its shareholders
whenever and in whatever amounts as, in the board's opinion, the corporation's
condition renders advisable in the manner and upon the terms and conditions
provided by law and the restated articles of incorporation.

                           BYLAW X.  INDEMNIFICATION

      (a)   Mandatory Indemnification.

            (1)  Subject to the conditions and limitations of this Bylaw X and
      the corporation's articles of incorporation, the corporation shall, to
      the fullest extent permitted by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law as
      it may then be in effect, indemnify and hold harmless each person (and
      the heirs and legal representatives of such person) who is or was a
      director or officer of the corporation, or of any other corporation or
      other enterprise which is served in any capacity at the request of the
      corporation (the "executive"), against any and all expenses (including,
      but not limited to, fees, costs, charges, disbursements, attorneys' fees
      and any other expenses (hereafter collectively referred to as
      "expenses")) and liabilities (including, but not limited to, the
      obligation to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, assessment, forfeiture
      or fine, including an excise tax assessed with respect to an employee
      benefit plan (hereinafter collectively referred to as "liabilities"))
      actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the result
      from any threatened, pending or completed civil, criminal, administrative
      or investigative
                                       -15-
      action, suit, arbitration or other proceeding (whether brought by or in
      the right of the corporation or such other corporation or otherwise)
      ("proceedings"), or in connection with an appeal relating thereto,
      including, without limitation, proceedings brought under and/or
      predicated upon the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or the
      Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and/or the Investment
      Company Act of 1940, as amended, and/or their respective state
      counterparts and/or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder, in
      which he may become involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of his
      being or having been such executive, or by reason of any past or future
<PAGE>
      action or omission or alleged action or omission (including those
      antedating the adoption of the Bylaw) by him in such capacity, whether or
      not he continues to be such at the time such liability or expense is
      incurred, either:

                  (A)  to the extent he is successful on the merits or
            otherwise in the defense of a proceeding, or

                  (B)  to the extent he is not successful on the merits or
            otherwise in the defense of a proceeding, unless it is determined
            pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Bylaw that liability was incurred
            because the executive breached or failed to perform a duty he owed
            to the corporation and the breach or failure to perform
            constituted:

                        (i)  a willful failure to deal fairly with the
                  corporation or its shareholders in connection with a matter
                  in which the executive had a material conflict of interest,

                        (ii)  a violation of criminal law, unless the executive
                  had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or no
                  reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful,

                        (iii)  a transaction from which the executive derived
                  an improper personal profit, or

                        (iv)  willful misconduct.

            (2)  In the event the executive is or was serving as an executive,
      trustee, fiduciary, administrator, employee or agent of an employee
      benefit plan sponsored by or otherwise associated with the corporation
      and incurs expenses or liabilities by reason of a proceeding having been
      brought, or having been threatened, against such executive because of his
      status as such an executive, trustee, fiduciary, administrator, employee
      or agent of such plan or by reason of his performing duties in any such
      capacities, the corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless the
      executive against any and all of such reasonable amounts subject to the
      provisions of paragraph (a) hereof.
                                       -16-
            (3)   The corporation may agree to indemnify and allow reasonable
      expenses for an employee or agent of the corporation who is not an
      executive by general or specific action of the Board of Directors, or by
      contract or agreement.

      (b)  Right to Indemnification; How Determined.

            (1)  An executive's indemnification under this Bylaw X shall be
      determined pursuant to one of the following means (the "Authority") as
      may be selected by the executive seeking such indemnification:

                  (A)  by a majority vote of a quorum of the Board of Directors
            consisting of directors not at the time parties to the same or
            related proceedings.  If a quorum of disinterested directors cannot
            be obtained, by a majority vote of a committee duly appointed by
            the Board of Directors and consisting of two or more directors not
            at the time parties to the same or related proceedings.  Directors
            who are parties to the same or related proceedings may participate
            in the designation of the members of the committee;
<PAGE>
                  (B)  by independent legal counsel selected by a quorum of the
            Board of Directors or its committee in the manner prescribed in (i)
            above or, if unable to obtain such quorum or committee, by majority
            vote of the full Board of Directors, including directors who are
            parties to the same or related proceedings;

                  (C)  by a panel of three arbitrators consisting of one
            arbitrator selected by those directors entitled under (ii) above to
            select independent legal counsel, one arbitrator selected by the
            executive seeking indemnification and one arbitrator selected by
            the two arbitrators previously selected;

                  (D)  by an affirmative vote of shares as set forth in Section
            2.08 of Bylaw II of these Bylaws;

                  (E)  by a court pursuant to the Wisconsin Business
            Corporation Law as it may then be in effect; or

                  (F)  by any other method provided for by the articles of
            incorporation, contract or agreement.  In any such determination
            there shall exist a rebuttable presumption that the executive has
            met such standard(s) of conduct and is therefore entitled to
            indemnification pursuant to this Bylaw X.  The burden of rebutting
            such presumption by clear and convincing evidence shall be on the
            corporation.
            The Authority shall make a determination within sixty days of being
            selected and shall simultaneously submit a written opinion of its
            conclusions to both the corporation and the executive and, if the
            Authority determines that the executive is entitled to be
            indemnified for any amounts pursuant to this Bylaw X, the
            corporation shall pay such amounts (net of all
                                       -17-
            amounts, if any, previously advanced to the executive pursuant to
            paragraph (d), including interest thereon as provided in paragraph
            (e)(3), to the executive (or to such other person or entity as he
            may designate in writing to the corporation) within ten days of
            receipt of such opinion.

            (2)  Any executive may, either before or within two years after a
      determination, if any, has been made by the Authority, petition the
      appropriate circuit court of the state of Wisconsin or any other court of
      competent jurisdiction to determine whether the executive is entitled to
      indemnification under this Bylaw X, and such court shall thereupon have
      the exclusive authority to make such determination unless and until such
      court dismisses or otherwise terminates such proceeding without having
      made such determination.  The court shall, as petitioned, make an
      independent determination of whether the executive is entitled to
      indemnification as provided under this Bylaw X, irrespective of any prior
      determination made by the Authority; provided, however, that there shall
      exist a rebuttable presumption that the executive has met the applicable
      standard(s) of conduct and is therefore entitled to indemnification
      pursuant to this Bylaw X.  The burden of rebutting such presumption by
      clear and convincing evidence shall be on the corporation.
      If the court determines that the executive is entitled to be indemnified
      for any amounts pursuant to this Bylaw X, unless otherwise ordered by
      such court, the corporation shall pay such amounts (net of all amounts,
      if any, previously advanced to the executive pursuant to paragraph (d),
<PAGE>
      including interest thereon as provided in paragraph (e)(3), to the
      executive (or to such other person or entity as the executive may
      designate in writing to the corporation) within ten days of the rendering
      of such determination.  An executive shall pay all expenses incurred by
      the executive in connection with the judicial determination provided in
      this paragraph (b)(2), and any subsequent appeal thereof, unless it shall
      ultimately be determined by the court that he is entitled to be
      indemnified, in whole or in part, by the corporation as authorized in
      this Bylaw X.

            (3)  Except as otherwise set forth in this subparagraph (2)(b), the
      expenses associated with the indemnification process set forth in this
      paragraph (b), including, without limitation, the expenses of the
      Authority selected hereunder, shall be paid by the corporation.

      (c)  Termination of a Proceeding is Nonconclusive.  The termination of
any proceeding, no matter by whom brought, including, without limitation,
Securities Law proceedings, by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon
a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the executive has not met the applicable standard(s) of
conduct set forth in paragraph (a).

      (d)  Advance Payment.

            (1)  Upon written request, the corporation shall advance expenses
      to, or where appropriate, at its expense, undertake the defense of, every
      such person prior to the final
                                       -18-
      disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the
      recipient to repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be determined
      that he is entitled to indemnification under this Bylaw X together with a
      written affirmation of his good faith and belief that he has not breached
      or failed to perform his duties to the corporation.

            (2)  In the event the corporation makes an advance of expenses to
      the executive pursuant to this Bylaw X, the corporation shall be
      subrogated to each and every right of recovery the executive may have
      against any insurance carrier from whom the corporation has purchased
      insurance for such purpose, if any.

      (e)  Partial Indemnification; Interest.

            (1)  If it is determined pursuant to this Bylaw X that an executive
      is entitled to indemnification as to some claims, issues or matters, but
      not as to other claims, issues or matters, involved in any proceeding, no
      matter by whom brought, including, without limitation, Securities Law
      proceedings, the Authority (or the court) shall authorize the reasonable
      proration (and payment by the corporation) of such expenses and
      liabilities with respect to which indemnification is sought by the
      executive, among such claims, issues or matters as the Authority (or the
      court) shall deem appropriate in light of all of the circumstances of
      such proceeding.

            (2)  If it is determined pursuant to this Bylaw X that certain
      amounts incurred by an executive, are for whatever reason, unreasonable
      in amount, the Authority (or the court) shall authorize indemnification
      to be paid by the corporation to the executive for only such amounts as
<PAGE>
      the Authority (or the court) shall deem reasonable in light of all of the
      circumstances of such proceeding.

            (3) To the extent deemed appropriate by the Authority pursuant to
      this Bylaw X, or by the court before which such proceeding was brought,
      interest shall be paid by the corporation to an executive, at a
      reasonable interest rate, for amounts for which the corporation
      indemnifies the executive.

      (f)  Limitation of Derivative Proceedings and Release of Derivative
Claims.  No proceeding shall be brought and no cause of action shall be
asserted, including, without limitation, Securities Law proceedings, by or in
the right of the corporation, against the executive, his spouse, heirs,
executors or administrators after the expiration of two years from the date the
executive ceases, for any reason whatsoever, to serve as an executive of the
corporation and/or of an affiliate unless asserted by the filing of an
appropriate proceeding within such two-year period.  The provisions of any
federal, state or local law or statute providing in substance that releases
shall not extend to claims, demands, injuries or damages which are unknown or
unsuspected to exist at the time to the person or entity executing such release
are hereby expressly waived by the corporation and its shareholders.
                                       -19-
      (g)  Nonexclusivity of Bylaw X.  The right to indemnification provided to
an executive by this Bylaw X shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights
to indemnification or the advancement of expenses to which he may be entitled
under any charter provision, contract, agreement, resolution, vote of
shareholders or disinterested directors of the corporation or otherwise,
including, without limitation, under Federal law or Wisconsin Business
Corporation Law Chapter 180 as it may then be in effect, both as to acts in his
official capacity as such executive or other employee or agent of the
corporation or of an affiliate or as to acts in any other capacity while
holding such office or position, and the terms and provisions of this Bylaw X
shall continue as to the executive if he ceases to be an executive or other
employee or agent of the corporation or of an affiliate, and such terms and
provisions shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of the executive.

      (h)  Insurance.

            (1)  The corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf
      of an executive, agent or employee against any liability asserted against
      him or incurred by or on behalf of him or her in such capacity as an
      executive or other employee or agent of the corporation or of an
      affiliate, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the
      corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability
      under the provisions of this Bylaw X or under Wisconsin Business
      Corporation Law Chapter 180 as it may then be in effect.  The purchase
      and maintenance of such insurance shall not in any way limit or affect
      the rights and obligations of the corporation or the executive under this
      Bylaw X and the execution and delivery of this Bylaw X by the corporation
      and the executive shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and
      obligations of the corporation or of the other party or parties thereto
      under any such policy or agreement of insurance.
<PAGE>
            (2)  If an executive shall receive payment from any insurance
      carrier or from the plaintiff in any proceeding against the executive in
      respect of indemnified amounts after payments on account of all or part
      of such indemnified amounts have been made by the corporation pursuant to
      this Bylaw X, the executive shall promptly reimburse the corporation for
      the amount, if any, by which the sum of such payment by such insurance
      carrier or such plaintiff and payments by the corporation to the
      executive exceeds such indemnified amounts; provided, however, that such
      portions, if any, of such insurance proceeds that are required to be
      reimbursed to the insurance carrier under the terms of its insurance
      policy, such as deductible or co-insurance payments, shall not be deemed
      to be payments to the executive hereunder.  In addition, upon payment of
      indemnified amounts under this Bylaw X, the corporation shall be
      subrogated to an executive's rights against any insurance carrier in
      respect of such indemnified amounts and the executive shall execute and
      deliver any and all instruments and/or documents and perform any and all
      other acts or deeds which the corporation deems necessary or advisable to
      secure such rights.  The executive shall do nothing to prejudice such
      rights of recovery or subrogation.
                                       -20-
      (i)  Witness Expenses.  Upon the executive's written request, the
corporation shall pay (in advance or otherwise) or reimburse any and all
expenses reasonably incurred by him in connection with his or her appearance as
a witness in any proceeding at a time when he has not been formally named a
defendant or respondent to such a proceeding.

      (j)  Contribution.

            (1)  In the event the indemnity provided for in paragraph (a) is
      unavailable to the executive for any reason whatsoever, the corporation,
      in lieu of indemnifying the executive, shall contribute to the amount
      reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the executive, whether for
      liabilities and/or for expenses in connection with any proceeding, no
      matter by whom brought, including without limitation, Securities Law
      proceedings, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable by the
      Authority pursuant to paragraph (b) hereof, or by the court before which
      such proceeding was brought, taking into account all of the circumstances
      of such proceeding, in order to reflect:

                  (A)  the relative benefits received by the corporation and
            the executive as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s)
            giving cause to such proceeding; and/or

                  (B)  the relative fault of the corporation (and its other
            executives, employees and/or agents) and the executive in
            connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).

            (2)  The executive shall not be entitled to contribution from the
      corporation under this paragraph (j) if it is determined by the Authority
      pursuant to paragraph (b), or by the court before which such proceeding
      was brought, that the executive, in the performance of his duty to the
      corporation or otherwise, violated the provisions of paragraph(a).
<PAGE>
            (3)  The corporation's payment of, and the executive's right to,
      contribution under this paragraph (j) shall be made and determined in
      accordance with paragraph (b) hereof relating to the corporation's
      payment of, and the executive's right to, indemnification under this
      Bylaw X.

      (k)  Severability.  In the event that any provision of this Bylaw X shall
be deemed invalid or inoperative, or in the event that a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that any of the provisions of this Agreement contravene
public policy, this Bylaw X shall be construed so that the remaining provisions
shall not be affected, but shall remain in full force and effect, and any such
provisions which are invalid or inoperative or which contravene public policy
shall be deemed, without further action or deed on the part of any person, to
be modified, amended and/or limited, but only to the extent necessary to render
the same valid and enforceable, and the corporation shall indemnify the
executive as to reasonable expenses, judgments, fines and amounts incurred in
settlement with respect to any proceeding, no matter by whom brought, including
Securities Law proceedings, to the full extent permitted by any applicable
provision of
                                       -21-
this Bylaw X that shall not have been invalidated and to the full extent
otherwise permitted by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law as it may
then be in effect.

                            BYLAW XI.  FISCAL YEAR

      The fiscal year of the corporation shall begin on the 1st day of January
and end on the 31st day of December in each year.

                               BYLAW XII.  SEAL

      The corporation shall not have a corporate seal, and all formal corporate
documents shall, when required, carry the designation "No Seal" along with the
signature of the officer or officers.

                            BYLAW XIII.  AMENDMENTS

      Section 13.01.  By Shareholders.  Except with respect to Sections 2.02,
2.08 and 3.08, and unless a greater number of shares is required under the
terms of any section of any bylaw of these Bylaws which has been adopted by the
shareholders or by law, these Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed and
new bylaws may be adopted by the shareholders by affirmative vote of not less
than a majority of all voting groups of this corporation entitled to vote in
the election of directors present or represented at any annual or special
meeting of the shareholders at which a quorum is in attendance.  Sections 2.02,
2.08 and 3.08 of the Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed only by the
affirmative vote of two-thirds of all voting groups of this corporation
entitled to vote in the election of directors at any annual or special meeting
of the shareholders at which a quorum is in attendance in addition to the vote
or consent of the holders of the stock of this corporation otherwise required
by law.
<PAGE>
      Section 13.02.  By Directors.  These Bylaws may also be altered, amended
or repealed and new bylaws may be adopted by the Board of Directors by
affirmative vote of a majority of the number of directors present at any
meeting at which a quorum is in attendance; but no bylaw adopted by the
shareholder shall be amended or repealed by the Board of Directors if the bylaw
so adopted so provides.

      Section 13.03.  Implied Amendments.  Any action taken or authorized by
the shareholders or by the Board of Directors, which would be inconsistent with
the bylaws then in effect but is taken or authorized by affirmative vote of not
less than the number of shares or the number of directors required to amend the
bylaws so that the bylaws would be consistent with such action, shall be given
the same effect as though the bylaws had been temporarily amended or suspended
so far, but only so far, as is necessary to permit the specific action so taken
or authorized.
