   ---------
constructed by Landlord at its sole cost and expense, Landlord is leasing the

<PAGE>

remodel, improve, or decorate any part of the Premises. For the purposes of this
Lease, "Substantial Completion" shall mean the completion of the Landlord Work
except for minor insubstantial details of construction, decoration or mechanical
adjustments which remain to be done and the obtaining of the necessary and the
issuance of the City of Sunnyvale of any certificates necessary to allow

Completion has occurred, the decision of Landlord's architect shall be final and
binding on the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord represents and
warrants that the Premises, the building operating systems serving the Premises,
the roof of the Building and the Landlord Work shall be in good condition and in
substantial compliance with all laws as of the Commencement Date, subject to
latent defects and the punch list items.

substantially completed on or before December 1, 2000. If the Landlord shall be
unable to give possession of the Premises on the estimated Commencement Date,
then Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for the failure to give
possession on said date. Under such circumstances the Base Rent shall not
commence until the Premises are made available to Tenant by Landlord, and no
failure to give possession on the estimated Commencement Date shall affect the
validity of this Lease or the obligations of the Tenant hereunder, provided that
the Term shall be extended by the period of time possession is delayed.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Landlord is unable to deliver
the Premises Substantially Complete as of March 1, 2001 (the "Outside Delivery
Date"), Tenant shall have a right to terminate this Lease by written notice to
Landlord given no later than March 9, 2001. If Tenant delivers its termination
notice to Landlord, this Lease shall terminate as of March 15, 2001 unless
Landlord is able to deliver the Premises Substantially Complete on or before
that date.

Commencement Date, but only in strict accordance with this subsection 3(D). In
no event shall Tenant enter the Premises prior to November 27, 200O. From and
after November 27, 2000, Tenant may enter the Premises to install Tenant's trade
fixtures and furniture, but only if the scope of work, the fixtures to be
installed, the manner and time of such installation, and the contractor
performing the installation are approved in writing by Landlord prior to such
installation, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Tenant shall have a right to install a security system in the Premises, and
notwithstanding the other provisions of this Lease, remove such system at the
expiration of the Term, provided that the scope of work, the type of security
system, the manner and time of installation and the contractor performing the
installation are approved in writing by Landlord prior to such installation,
which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed,

                                     Page 7
<PAGE>

and further provided that Tenant will be responsible for the entire cost of
repairing and restoring the Property after such removal as provided in Section
16 of this Lease. Such early entry shall be without payment of Base Rent and
Additional Rent, but shall otherwise be governed by all of the terms and
conditions of this Lease, including without limitation the insurance and
indemnity obligations.

     4.   SERVICES AND UTILITIES. Landlord represents and warrants that there
          ----------------------
are presently in existence water, sewer, gas and electrical lines and surface
drainage systems on the Premises which have been licensed, permitted, completed
and installed in accordance with the plans and specifications that were reviewed
by Tenant prior to the date hereof. As of the Commencement Date, Tenant shall
promptly pay, as the same become due, all charges for water, gas, electricity,
telephone, WAN and other telecommunications lines and services, 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, (i) meter, use and/or connection fees, hook-up fees, or standby
fees. Any interruption or cessation of any services or 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 Building 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.

     5.   SECURITY DEPOSIT
          ----------------

          A.  Tenant concurrently with the execution of this Lease shall provide
a letter of credit (the "Letter of Credit") to Landlord in the amount of the
Security Deposit, which Letter of Credit shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit C attached to this Lease.
---------

          B.  The Letter of Credit, among other provisions, (i) shall be issued
by a commercial bank reasonably satisfactory to Landlord ("Issuer"); (ii) shall
be payable in the City of San Francisco or the City of San Jose, (iii) shall be
an unconditional and irrevocable letter of credit; (iv) shall be freely
transferable by Landlord, (v) shall be automatically renewed for successive one
year periods; (v) shall provide that it is governed by the Uniform Customs and
Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 revisions), International Chamber of
Commerce Publication No. 500 and (vi) shall be kept in effect during the entire
term of the Lease plus a period of ninety (90) days thereafter. Landlord may
only draw upon the Letter of Credit (i) upon a Default (as defined in Section 14
hereof), or (ii) as provided in the Letter of Credit, if the Letter of Credit is
not renewed as required under this Lease.

          C. The Letter of Credit may be applied by Landlord to cure, in whole
or part, any Default of Tenant under this Lease, and upon notice by Landlord of
such application, Tenant shall replenish the Security Deposit in full by paying
to Landlord within ten (10) days of demand the amount so applied. Landlord's
application of the Security Deposit shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's
Default to the extent that the Security Deposit does not fully compensate
Landlord for all losses, damages, costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in
connection with such Default and shall not prejudice any other rights or
remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or by Law. If converted to cash,
Landlord shall not pay any interest on the Security Deposit or to keep the
Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. The Security Deposit

                                     Page 8
<PAGE>

shall not be deemed an advance payment of Rent or a measure of damages for any
Default by Tenant under this Lease, nor shall it be a bar or defense of any
action that Landlord may at any time commence against Tenant. In the absence of
evidence satisfactory to Landlord of an assignment of the right to receive the
Security Deposit or the remaining balance thereof, Landlord may return the
Security Deposit to the original Tenant, regardless of one or more assignments
of this Lease. Upon the transfer of Landlord's interest under this Lease,
Landlord's obligation to Tenant with respect to the Security Deposit shall
terminate upon transfer to the transferee of the Security Deposit, or any
balance thereof. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all the terms,
provisions, covenants, and conditions of this Lease, the Security Deposit, or
any balance thereof, shall be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days after
Landlord recovers possession of the Premises or such longer time as may be
permissible under Law. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights of Tenant under
the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code or other Law
regarding security deposits.

improvements or alterations to the Premises (the "Work") without in each
                                                  ----
instance submitting plans and specifications for the Work to Landlord and
obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, which may be given or withheld in
Landlord's sole and absolute discretion. In the event that Landlord consents to
such Work, Landlord shall prepare a budget for such Work and, upon Tenant's
approval of such budget, Landlord shall perform the Work. Tenant shall pay all
costs and expenses of such Work, including Landlord's actual out-of-pocket costs
incurred for reviewing of all of the plans and all other items submitted by
Tenant, and including paying to Landlord a construction management fee equal to
five percent (5%) of the cost of the Work. Payment shall be made within ten (10)
business days of Landlord's invoice therefor.

          B.  Ownership. Upon completion, (i) all Work and all furniture (except
              ---------
Tenant's Furniture, as defined below, and except as otherwise agreed in writing
by Landlord and Tenant) shall become the property of Landlord, and (ii) Tenant's
trade fixtures and furniture installed and paid for by Tenant (except for
furniture that is attached to the Work, the Building or any of Landlord's
furniture, which attached furniture shall become the property of Landlord) (the
"Tenant's Furniture)) and items which Landlord requires Tenant to remove at
Tenant's cost at the termination of the Lease shall be the property of Tenant.
All Work and all furniture owned by Landlord shall be surrendered to Landlord
with the Premises at the termination of the Lease or of Tenant's right to

protection of the Property, or which Landlord is required to make by any court
or pursuant to any insurance

                                    Page 10
<PAGE>

requirements and all applicable governmental laws, ordinances and regulations
("Governmental Requirements"). 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
its invitees, contractors or agents anywhere in the Building, shall become
Additional Rent payable by Tenant on demand.

          D.  No Liens. Tenant has no authority to cause or permit any lien or
              --------
encumbrance of any kind to affect Landlord's interest in the Property; 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 (i) within such ten (10) day period, provide Landlord adequate
security for the lien or claim, (ii) contest the lien or claim in good faith by
appropriate proceedings that operate to stay its enforcement, and (iii) pay
promptly any final adverse judgment entered in any such proceeding. If Tenant

its trade fixtures, furniture, moveable equipment and other personal property,
any improvements which Landlord elects shall be removed by Tenant pursuant to
this Article, and any improvements to any portion of the Property other than the

conclusively presumed to have, at Landlord's election (i) conveyed such property
to Landlord without compensation or (ii) 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 abandonment, Tenant shall pay to Landlord,

              -----------------

the Premises which will negatively affect the cost of coverage of Landlord's
insurance on the Property, unless Tenant pays any additional premiums as a
result of such use. Tenant shall not permit any nuisance or waste upon the
Premises, or allow any offensive noise or odor in or around the Premises. 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 or any other comparable law as a result of
Tenant's peculiar 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.

Sign on the exterior of the Building Landlord may give or withhold in its sole
discretion, and which approval with respect to a Sign in the interior of the
Building Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold. Tenant may put a banner on
the Building for a period not to exceed two (2) weeks with Landlord's prior
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord shall have
the right to reasonably approve the location, design, size and materials of any
proposed signage. Subject to Landlord's reasonable approval, Tenant shall have
the right, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to place its name on a monument
sign, which monument shall be in a location approved by Landlord. Any approved
signs shall strictly conform to all Governmental Requirements and any CC&R's
recorded against the Property. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense,
maintain such signs in good condition and repair. Tenant shall remove the signs
upon the termination of the Lease and repair any damage caused to the Property

              -------
parking facilities without the payment of a parking fee (but Operating Costs
shall include the cost and expense of the maintenance and operation of such

established by Landlord. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, nor shall this
Lease be affected, if any parking is impaired by moratorium, initiative,
referendum, law, ordinance, regulation or order passed, issued or made by any
governmental or quasi-governmental body. Tenant shall comply with all
Governmental Requirements, including any traffic mitigation requirements imposed
by any federal, state or local governmental or quasi-governmental agency or
entity.

          D.  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 for
any purposes (including without limitation for the installation, maintenance and
repair of a satellite dish and/or other telecommunications equipment), without
the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord may withhold in
its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have a right to
install one antenna or satellite dish in a location determined by Landlord on
the roof, provided Tenant executes a separate agreement prepared by Landlord
concerning Tenant's rights and obligations with respect to such antenna or
satellite dish, and further provided that Landlord shall have the right to
approve the size of such antenna or satellite dish.

     8.   GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENTS AND BUILDING RULES. Tenant shall comply with
          --------------------------------------------
all Governmental Requirements applying to its use of the Premises. Tenant shall
also comply with all reasonable rules for the Property which may be established
and amended from time to time by Landlord ("Rules and Regulations"). The present
Rules and Regulations are set forth in Exhibit D.

     9.   REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE.

<PAGE>

related utility lines and pipes outside of the Building. The costs incurred by
Landlord to perform the foregoing obligations shall be "Operating Costs" (as
defined in and subject to the terms of Section 2C) and shall be passed through
to Tenant. Any damage to any of the foregoing caused by the negligence or
willful acts or omissions of Tenant or of Tenant's agents, employees or
invitees, or by reason of the failure of Tenant to perform or comply with any
terms of this Lease, or caused by Tenant or Tenant's agents, employees or
contractors during the performance of any work shall be repaired by Landlord,
solely at Tenant's expense, or at Landlord's election, such repairs shall be
made by Tenant, at Tenant's expense, with contractors approved by Landlord.
Tenant agrees to exercise reasonable efforts to give Landlord prompt
notification of the need for any repairs or maintenance; provided that such
notification shall not affect Landlord's obligation to perform periodic
inspections of the Building during the Lease Term. Tenant waives the provisions
of Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code and any similar or
successor law regarding Tenant's right to make repairs and deduct the expenses
of such repairs from the Rent due under this Lease.

     10.  INSURANCE; INDEMNIFICATION: WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

          policy also covering excess workers compensation and automobile

manager or agent, mortgagee and ground lessor shall be named as additional

agents. Tenant's obligations under this section shall survive the termination of
this Lease.

          G.   Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
               ---------------------
in this Lease, Landlord and Tenant release each other and their respective
agents, employees, successors and assigns from all liability for damage to any
property that is actually covered by property insurance in force or which would
have been covered by property insurance, had the party obtained insurance
required under the terms of this Lease, without regard to the negligence of the
entity so released. In addition, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

               (i)  Landlord agrees that, so long as the same is permitted under

 any party for losses covered by such policy or policies.

     11.  FIRE AND CASUALTY.
          -----------------

          A.   Termination. If a fire or other casualty causes substantial
               -----------
damage to the Building, Landlord shall engage a registered architect to certify
to both Landlord and Tenant the amount of time needed to restore the Building to
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, as certified by Landlord's architect, either
Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice delivered to the other
party within ten (10) business days after Landlord's delivery to Tenant of the
architect's certificate. If sufficient insurance proceeds will not be available
to Landlord to cover the cost of any restoration to the Building, because (i)
the casualty was not required to be insured against by this Lease and was not
actually insured, or (ii) of insolvency or financial condition of Landlord's
insurance carrier, Landlord may terminate this Lease by written notice to
Tenant, unless Tenant elects to cover the shortfall in proceeds and deposits
with Landlord 125% of the cost of such shortfall, as reasonably determined by
Landlord. Any termination pursuant to this Section 10 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 space which has
been untenantable after the casualty.

          B.   Restoration. If a casualty causes damage to the Building 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 subject to then-current
Governmental Requirements. 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.

     12.  EMINENT DOMAIN. If a part of the Property 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. If there is a temporary taking of a part of the Building which
is so substantial that the Premises cannot reasonably be used by Tenant for the
operation of its business, then

                                    Page 15
<PAGE>

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, except (i) any
separate award made to Tenant for the taking of Tenant's personal property and
trade fixtures, or its relocation costs, and (ii) in the event of a temporary
taking in which there was no Rent abatement under this Lease, then Tenant shall
be entitled to any portion of the award which was intended to compensate
Landlord for lost rent during the period of the temporary taking. All
obligations accrued to the date of the taking shall be performed by each party.

               ------

notice required under Section 1161 of the California Code of Civil Procedure,
and further provided that after the second such failure in a calendar year, only
the passage of time, but no notice, shall be required to establish a Default in
the same calendar year), 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

     15.  LANDLORD REMEDIES. Upon a Default, 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:

          A.   This Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does
not terminate Tenant's right to possession by written notice as provided herein,
and Landlord may enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease, including
the right to recover Rent as it becomes due under this Lease. In such event,
Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies of a landlord under
California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue Lease in effect after
Tenant's Default and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if Tenant
has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations), or
any successor statute. During such time as Tenant is in Default, if Landlord has
not terminated this Lease by written notice and

                                    Page 18
<PAGE>

if Tenant requests Landlord's consent to an assignment of this Lease or a
sublease of the Premises, subject to Landlord's option to recapture), Landlord
shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to such assignment or sublease.
Tenant acknowledges and agrees that in the absence of written notice pursuant to
this Article terminating Tenant's right to possession, no other act of Landlord
shall constitute a termination of Tenant's right to possession or an acceptance
of Tenant's surrender of the Premises, including 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 or
the withholding of consent to a subletting or assignment, or terminating a
subletting or assignment, if in accordance with other provisions of this Lease.

          B.   Landlord may enter the Premises and release them to third parties
for Tenant's account for any period, whether shorter or longer than the
remaining Term. Tenant shall be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs
Landlord incurs in reletting the Premises or any part thereof, including,
without limitation, broker's commissions, expenses of cleaning and redecorating
the Premises required by the reletting and like costs. Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the Rent and other sums due under this Lease on the date the Rent is
due, less the rent and other sums received by Landlord from any releasing. No
act by Landlord other than giving written notice to Tenant shall terminate this
Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of
a receiver on Landlord's initiative to protect Landlord's interest under this
Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant's right to possession.

          C.   Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice
of termination, in which event 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:

               (1)  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

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

               (3)  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

               (4)  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

                                    Page 19
<PAGE>

tenant or tenants; (iii) for leasing commissions; or (iv) for any other costs
necessary or appropriate to relet the Premises; plus

          (5)  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
          --------------------------
14C(l) and 14C(2) is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate permitted
by law 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 14C(3) 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, in the event Tenant is evicted or Landlord takes
possession of the Premises by reason of any Default of Tenant hereunder.

          D.   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. 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. Landlord's
acceptance of payment by Tenant shall not constitute a waiver of any breach by
Tenant, and if the acceptance occurs after Landlord's notice to Tenant. or
termination of the Lease or of Tenant's right to possession, the 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 mitigate
any Default by Tenant. Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord for any such
advance, and such sums shall bear interest at the Default Interest rate until
paid.

          E.   WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN THE
               -----------------------
EVENT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING 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.

          F.   Tenant hereby waives any and all rights to relief from
forfeiture, redemption or reinstatement granted by Law (including California
Civil Code of Procedure Sections 1174 and 1179) in the event of Tenant being
evicted or dispossessed for any cause or in the event of Landlord obtaining
possession of the Premises by reason of Tenant's Default or otherwise;

          G.   Litigation Costs. Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable
               ----------------
attorneys' fees and other costs in enforcing this Lease, whether or not suit is
filed.

     16.  SURRENDER.
          ---------

          (a)  Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease for any
reason, it is Tenant's obligation to surrender the Premises to Landlord in its
condition existing as of the Commencement Date, normal wear and tear and damage
by fire or other casualty excepted (the "Required Condition"). Except for the
removal of Tenant's personal property and trade fixtures, which Tenant shall
remove at its sole expense, Landlord shall perform, at the cost and expense of
Tenant, the work necessary to restore the Premises to the Required Condition.
Tenant shall pay the cost of performing the work necessary to restore the
Premises to the Required Condition, together with a construction management fee
equal to five percent (5%) of such costs and interest at the Interest Rate from
the date of expenditure by Landlord, within ten (10) business days after
receiving Landlord's invoice for such work.

          (b)  Restoring the Premises to the Required Condition shall include
but not be limited to the following: all interior walls repaired and repainted
if marked or damaged, all carpets shampooed and cleaned, all broken, marred or

plumbing and electrical systems and lighting in good order and repair, including
replacement of any burned out or broken light bulb or ballasts, the HVAC
equipment serviced and repaired by a reputable and licensed service firm
acceptable to Landlord, all floors cleaned and waxed and, if Tenant has
performed any alterations which Landlord does not elect to retain the removal of
such alterations and the restoration of the Premises to its condition prior to
their installation. To the extent the cost of restoring the Premises to the
Required Condition is increased due to Landlord's failure to maintain the
Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease, Tenant shall not be
responsible for such excess cost.

          (c)  If Tenant fails to remove any personal property, and such failure
continues after the termination of this Lease, Landlord may retain or dispose of
such property and all rights of Tenant with respect to it shall cease, or
Landlord may place all or any portion of such property in public storage for
Tenant's account. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs of removal of
Tenant's personal property and storage and transportation costs of same,
together with a construction management fee equal to five percent (5%) of such
costs and interest at the Interest Rate from the date of expenditure by
Landlord.

          (d)  If the Premises are not surrendered at the termination of this
Lease in accordance with this Section 16, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord
against all loss or liability, including attorneys' fees and costs, resulting
from delay by Tenant in so surrendering the Premises.

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

     A.   In General. Tenant shall not, without the prior consent of Landlord in
          ----------
each case, (i) make or allow any assignment or transfer, by operation of law or
otherwise, of any part of Tenant's interest in this Lease, (ii) grant or allow
any lien or encumbrance, by operation of law or otherwise, upon any part of
Tenant's interest in this Lease, (iii) sublet any part of the Premises, or (iv)
permit anyone other than Tenant and its employees to occupy any part of the
Premises. For purposes of this Article, an assignment shall be deemed to include
a change of twenty-five (25%) percent of the shares of Tenant, resulting from
any transfer, sale or assignment

                                    Page 21
<PAGE>

of shares of stock of Tenant occurring by operation of Law or otherwise if
Tenant is a corporation whose shares of stock are not traded publicly, or a
transfer or series of transfers of all or substantially all of Tenant's assets.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, transfers of stock in a corporation whose shares
are traded in the "over-the-counter" market or any recognized national
securities exchange shall not constitute an assignment for purposes of this
lease, provided that the principal purpose of such transfer or transfers is not
to avoid the restrictions on assignment otherwise applicable under this Article.
Tenant shall remain primarily liable for all of its obligations under this
Lease, notwithstanding any assignment or transfer. No consent granted by
Landlord shall be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment or
transfer, lien or encumbrance, sublease or occupancy. Tenant shall pay all of
Landlord's attorneys' fees in the amount of $l,000.00 and other expenses
incurred in connection with any consent requested by Tenant or in reviewing any
proposed assignment or subletting. Any assignment or transfer, grant of lien or
encumbrance, or sublease or occupancy without Landlord's prior written consent
shall be void.

          B.   Landlord's Consent. Subject to Landlord's right to recapture the
               ------------------
Premises or portion of the Premises affected by the assignment or subletting,
Landlord will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed assignment
or subletting. Without limitation, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to
withhold its consent to any assignment or sublease if (i) Tenant is in Default
under this Lease, (ii) the financial responsibility, nature of business, and
character of the proposed assignee or subtenant are not all reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord, (iii) in the reasonable judgment of Landlord the
purpose for which the assignee or subtenant intends to use the Premises (or a
portion thereof) is inconsistent with the character of the Property or would
violate the terms of this Lease, or (iv) the proposed assignee or subtenant is a
government entity. The foregoing shall not exclude any other reasonable basis
for Landlord to withhold its consent.

          C.   Procedure. Tenant shall notify Landlord of any proposed
               ---------
assignment or sublease at least thirty (30) days prior to its proposed effective
date. The notice shall include the name and address of the proposed assignee or
subtenant, its corporate affiliates in the case of a corporation and its
partners in a case of a partnership, and sufficient information to permit
Landlord to determine the financial responsibility and character of the proposed
assignee or subtenant. As a condition to any effective assignment of this Lease,
the assignee shall execute and deliver in form satisfactory to Landlord prior to
the effective date of the assignment, an assumption of all of the obligations of
Tenant under this Lease. As a condition to any effective sublease, any subtenant
shall execute and deliver in form satisfactory to Landlord prior to the
effective date of the sublease, an agreement to comply with all of Tenant's
applicable obligations under this Lease, and at Landlord's option, an agreement
(except for the economic obligations which subtenant will undertake directly to
Tenant) to attorn to Landlord under the terms of the sublease in the event this
Lease terminates before the sublease expires. Landlord shall notify Tenant in
writing of its approval or disapproval of the proposed sublease or assignment or
its decision to exercise its rights under Section 18 (D) within thirty (30) days
after receipt of Tenant's Notice (and all required information).

          D.   Recapture. Landlord shall have the right and option to exclude
               ---------
from the Premises covered by this Lease ("Recapture") the space proposed to be
sublet or subject to the assignment (except subleases or assignments to an
Affiliate that comply with the provisions of

                                    Page 22
<PAGE>

subsection F below), effective as of the proposed commencement date of such
sublease or assignment. If Landlord elects to recapture, Tenant shall surrender
possession of the space proposed to be subleased or subject to the assignment to
Landlord on the effective date of recapture of such space from the Premises,
such date being the Termination Date for such space. Effective as of the date of
recapture of any portion of the Premises pursuant to this section, the Base
Rent, the Rentable Square Footage of the Premises, Tenant's share of Operating
Costs Rent, Tenant's share of Tax Rent and the allocation of parking spaces
shall be adjusted accordingly.

          E.   Excess Payments. If Tenant shall assign this Lease or sublet any
               ---------------
part of the Premises (except subleases or assignments to an Affiliate that
comply with the provisions of subsection F below) for consideration in excess of
the pro-rata portion of Rent applicable to the space subject to the assignment
or sublet, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent seventy-five
percent (75%) of any such excess immediately upon receipt; provided that Tenant
shall be first entitled to recover the reasonable costs actually incurred by
Tenant in connection with the sublet for leasing commissions and attorneys'
fees.

          F.   Assignment to Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
               ------------------------
Landlord's consent shall not be required with respect to an assignment or
subletting to an Affiliate (as hereinafter defined), provided that (1) the
assignee is a reputable entity of good character, (2) a duplicate original duly
executed sublease or assignment in a form approved by Landlord shall have been
delivered to Landlord at least fifteen (15) days prior to the effective date of
any such assignment or subletting (or in the case of a corporate acquisition or
merger, within ten (10) days after the first date upon which such corporate
acquisition or merger may be announced to the public under applicable law), (3)
such assignment or subletting is for a legitimate business purpose and not
principally for the purpose of avoiding the restrictions on assignment or
subletting otherwise applicable under this Article, and (4) in the case of an
assignment, such assignee has a net worth, computed in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (excluding goodwill and intangible assets) at
least equal to or greater than the greater of (a) Tenant's Net Worth as of the
date of this Lease and (b) Tenant's Net Worth immediately preceding such
assignment. For purposes of this Article, the term "Affiliate" shall mean any
                                                    ---------
entity which controls or is controlled by or under common control with Tenant, a
successor corporation related to Tenant by merger, consolidation or
nonbankruptcy reorganization, or a purchaser of substantially all of Tenant's
assets or substantially all of Tenant's assets located in the Premises, or of
substantially all of Tenant's stock, and the term "control" shall mean, in the
case of a corporation, ownership or voting control, directly or indirectly, of
at least fifty (50%) percent of all the voting stock, and in case of a joint
venture, limited liability company, partnership or similar entity, ownership,
directly or indirectly, of at least fifty (50%) percent of all the general or
other partnership, membership (or similar) interests therein. "Affiliate" shall
                                                               ---------
also include Tenant after a change of twenty-five (25%) percent of the shares of
Tenant, resulting from any transfer, sale or assignment of shares of stock of
Tenant occurring by operation of Law or otherwise if Tenant is a corporation
whose shares of stock are not traded publicly. In the event of an assignment or
subletting permitted under this subsection, Tenant shall provide Landlord with
ten (10) days' prior notice of any such proposed action together with evidence
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord to establish that such entity is an
Affiliate, in the case of an assignment, the Net Worth of such entity and an
instrument by which such entity shall expressly assume this Lease by an
instrument satisfactory to Landlord.

                                    Page 23
<PAGE>

          G.  In the event of any sublease or assignment, whether or not with
Landlord's consent, Tenant shall not be released or discharged from any
liability, whether past, present or future, under this Lease, including any
liability arising from the exercise of any renewal or expansion option, to the
extent such exercise is expressly permitted by Landlord. Tenant's liability
shall remain primary, and in the event of default by any subtenant, assignee or
successor of Tenant in performance or observance of any of the covenants or
conditions of this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without
the necessity of exhausting remedies against said subtenant, assignee or
successor. If Landlord grants consent to such sublease or assignment, Tenant
shall pay all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by Landlord with
respect thereto.

          H.   If Tenant shall assign this Lease as permitted herein, the
assignee shall expressly assume all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder in a
written instrument satisfactory to Landlord and furnished to Landlord not later
than fifteen (15) days prior to the effective date of the assignment. If Tenant
shall sublease the Premises as permitted herein, Tenant shall, at Landlord's
option, within fifteen (15) days following any request by Landlord, obtain and
furnish to Landlord the written agreement of such subtenant to the effect that
the subtenant will attorn to Landlord and will pay all subrent directly to
Landlord.

          18.  HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.

          A.   Tenant shall comply with all Environmental Laws (as hereinafter
defined) pertaining to Tenant's occupancy and use of the Premises and concerning
the proper storage, handling and disposal of any Hazardous Material (as
hereinafter defined) introduced to the Premises, the Building or the Property by
Tenant or other occupants of the Premises, or their employees, servants, agents,
contractors, customers or invitees. Landlord shall comply with all Environmental
Laws applicable to the Property other than those to be complied with by Tenant
pursuant to the preceding sentence. Tenant shall not generate, store, handle or
dispose of any Hazardous Material in, on, or about the Property without the
prior written consent of Landlord, which may be withheld in Landlord's sole
discretion, except that such consent shall not be required to the extent of
Hazardous Material packaged and contained in office products for consumer use in
general business offices in quantities for ordinary day-to-day use provided such
use does not give rise to, or pose a risk of, exposure to or release of
Hazardous Material. In the event that Tenant is notified of any investigation or
violation of any Environmental Law arising from Tenant's activities at the
Premises, Tenant shall immediately deliver to Landlord a copy of such notice. In
such event or in the event Landlord reasonably believes that a violation of
Environmental Law exists, Landlord may conduct such tests and studies relating
to compliance by Tenant with Environmental Law or the alleged presence of
Hazardous Material upon the Premises as Landlord deems desirable, all of which
shall be completed at Tenant's expense, if it is determined that Tenant has
breached its obligations under this Section. Landlord's inspection and testing
rights are for Landlord's own protection only, and Landlord has not, and shall
not be deemed to have assumed any responsibility to Tenant or any other party
for compliance with Environmental Laws, as a result of the exercise, or non-
exercise of such rights. Tenant hereby indemnifies, and agrees to defend,
protect and hold harmless, the Indemnitees from any and all loss, claim, demand,
action, expense, liability and cost (including attorneys' fees and expenses)
arising out of or in any way related to the presence of any Hazardous Material
introduced to the Premises during the Lease Term by any party other than
Landlord. In case of any action or proceeding brought against the

                                    Page 24
<PAGE>

Indemnitees by reason of any such claim, upon notice from Landlord, Tenant
covenants to defend such action or proceeding by counsel chosen by Landlord, in
Landlord's reasonable discretion. Landlord reserves the right to settle,
compromise or dispose of any and all actions, claims and demands related to the
foregoing indemnity.

          B.   "Environmental Law" or "Environmental Laws" mean all laws,
statutes, or regulations governing the use, storage, disposal or generation of
any Hazardous Material, including, without limitation, the Comprehensive
Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, and
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended.

          C.   "Hazardous Material" means such substances, material and wastes
which are or become regulated under any Environmental Law; or which are
classified as hazardous or toxic under any Environmental Law; and explosives and
firearms, radioactive material, asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls, and
petroleum products.

     19.  SUBORDINATION TO GROUND LEASES AND MORTGAGE.
          -------------------------------------------

          A.   Subordination. Landlord shall have the right to cause this Lease
               -------------
to be subordinate to any future ground lease or mortgage respecting the
Building, and any amendments to such ground lease or mortgage, at the election
of the ground lessor or mortgagee as the case may be, provided that the
mortgagee or ground lessor and Tenant shall enter into a nondisturbance
agreement on such mortgagee's or ground lessor's standard form, whereby such
mortgagee or ground lessor agrees that notwithstanding such subordination, in
the event of foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof, such mortgagee or ground
lessor shall recognize Tenant's rights under this Lease, and so long as Tenant
is not in Default under this Lease after the expiration of any applicable notice
and cure periods, Tenant may remain in possession of the Premises under the
terms of this Lease. In the event that any mortgage or deed of trust is
foreclosed or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure is made for any reason, Tenant
shall, notwithstanding any subordination, attorn to and become the Tenant of the
successor in interest to Landlord; provided such mortgagee or beneficiary
recognizes this Lease and Tenant's right to possession of the Premises on the
terms contained herein. Tenant shall execute and deliver, within seven (7) days
after receipt of written demand by Landlord and in the form reasonably requested
by Landlord, any additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination
of this Lease with respect to any such mortgage or deed of trust.

          B.   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 ground lessor, mortgagee, or purchaser at a foreclosure sale shall
thereby become the owner of the Building, Tenant shall attorn to such ground
lessor or mortgagee or purchaser without any deduction or setoff by Tenant, and
this Lease shall continue in effect as a direct lease between Tenant and such
ground lessor, mortgagee or purchaser. The ground lessor or mortgagee or
purchaser shall be liable as Landlord only during the time such ground lessor or
mortgagee or purchaser is the owner of the Building. At the request of Landlord,
or any ground lessor or mortgagee, Tenant shall execute and deliver within ten
(10) days of the request any document furnished by the requesting party to
evidence Tenant's agreement to attorn.

                                    Page 25

          C.  Security Deposit. Any ground lessor or mortgagee shall be
              ----------------
responsible for the return of any security deposit by Tenant to the extent the
security deposit, if any, is received by such ground lessor or mortgagee.

          D.  Notice and Right to Cure. Tenant agrees to send by registered or
              ------------------------
certified mail to any ground lessor or mortgagee identified in any 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 ground lessor or mortgagee begins to cure within ten (10) days
after such period and proceeds diligently to complete such cure, then ground
lessor or mortgagee 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.

     20.  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 month-to-month tenant for the entire
Premises upon all of the terms of this Lease as might be applicable to such
month-to-month tenancy, except that Tenant shall pay all of Base Rent at two
hundred fifty percent (250%) of the rate in effect immediately prior to such
holdover, computed on a monthly basis for each full or partial month Tenant
remains in possession. Tenant shall also pay Landlord all of Landlord's direct
and consequential damages resulting from Tenant's holdover. 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.

     21.  EXCULPATION OF LANDLORD. Tenant agrees, on its behalf and on behalf of
          -----------------------
its successors and assigns, that any liability or obligation under this Lease
shall only be enforced against Landlord's equity interest in the Property up to
a maximum of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) and in no event against any
other assets of the Landlord, or Landlord's officers or directors or partners,
and that any liability of Landlord with respect to this Lease shall be so
limited and Tenant shall not be entitled to any judgment in excess of such
amount.

     22.  CONVEYANCE BY LANDLORD. If Landlord shall at any time transfer its
          ----------------------
interest in the Building or this Lease, upon the assumption of this Lease by
such transferee, Landlord shall be released of any obligations and Tenant shall
look solely to Landlord's successors for performance of such obligations. This
Lease shall not be affected by any such transfer.

     23.  ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Tenant shall, within seven (7) days of receiving
          --------------------
a request, execute, acknowledge in recordable form, and deliver to Landlord or
its designee a certificate stating, subject to a specific statement of any
applicable exceptions, that the Lease as amended to date is in full force and
effect, that the 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 Rent and Tax Rent estimates, the

                                    Page 26
<PAGE>

status of any improvements required to be completed by Landlord, and the amount
of any security deposit.

     24.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Within ten (10) days after Landlord's written
          --------------------
request therefor, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of Tenant's most
recent audited financial statements. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to keep such statements confidential, and shall sign a commercially
reasonable non-disclosure statement evidencing such agreement by Landlord.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may show such financial statements to
prospective purchasers and lenders, provided such entities sign a commercially
reasonable non-disclosure statement.

     25.  FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party shall be in default under this Lease to
          -------------
the extent that it is unable to perform any of its obligations on account of any
strike or labor problem, equipment, material, supplies or energy shortages
(i.e., such items cannot be obtained at normal costs within a reasonable time
because of limited availability), governmental preemption or prescription,
national emergency, or any other cause of any kind beyond its reasonable control
(provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any monetary obligation) ("Force
                                                                           -----
Majeure").
-------

     26.  NOTICES. All notices, consents, approvals and similar communications
          -------
to be given by one party to the other under this Lease, shall be given in
writing, mailed or personally delivered to the parties at the addresses set
forth in the Basic Lease Terms or to such other person at such other address as
Tenant may designate by notice to Landlord.

Notices shall be sent by personal delivery or by United States certified or
registered mail, or by a reputable national overnight courier service, postage
prepaid. Mailed notices shall be deemed to have been given on the earlier of
actual delivery or three (3) business days after posting in the United States
mail in the case of registered or certified mail, and one business day in the
case of overnight courier. Notices delivered by personal delivery shall be
deemed given on the date of delivery, unless such date is a weekend or holiday,
in which event such notice shall be deemed given on the next-succeeding business
day.

     27.  QUIET POSSESSION. So long as Tenant shall perform all of its
          ----------------
obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall enjoy peaceful and quiet possession
of the Premises, free of any person claiming by, through or under Landlord,
subject to all of the terms of this Lease.

     28.  REAL ESTATE BROKER. Tenant represents to Landlord that Tenant has not
          ------------------
dealt with any real estate broker with respect to this Lease except for any
broker(s) listed in the Basic Lease Terms, and no other broker is in any way
entitled to any broker's fee or other payment in connection with this Lease.
Tenant shall indemnify and defend Landlord against any claims by any other
broker or third party claiming under Tenant for any payment of a leasing
commission, finder's fee or similar payment in connection with this Lease.
Landlord shall indemnify and defend Tenant against any claims by any other
broker or third party claiming under Landlord for any payment of a leasing
commission, finder's fee or similar payment in connection with this Lease.
Landlord shall pay the commissions to the brokers identified in the Basic Lease
Terms pursuant to a separate agreement.

                              1.0 Station Wiring
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.0  General

     Unless otherwise specified:

     .  All cubicles have one standard station outlet
     .  All Offices have two standard station outlets
     .  All conference rooms have on standard wall outlet and one standard floor
        mounted outlet

1.01 Standard Station Outlet

     One Category 3 Voice and four Category 5e Data cables will be terminated
     onto an eight conductor RJ45 modular jack. A Panduit modular Mini-Com jack
     will be used for all UTP cable terminations. The voice four pair will be
     split between two jacks, two pair each terminating on pins 3,4,5 and 6. All
     modular jacks will be mounted in a Panduit Single Gang Faceplate which
     mounts in the drywall (Flush Mount) or into a Panduit Mini-Com Multi-Media
     outlet box for use with the Modular furniture. See sketches for details.

                    The jack color code scheme is as follows:
                    ----------------------------------------

                    White Jack  - Category 3 - Voice 1
                    Black Jack  - Category 3 - Voice 2
                    Blue Jack   - Category 5 - Data 1
                    Red Jack    - Category 5 - Data 2
                    Yellow Jack - Category 5 - Data 3

closing  bid  of  the  last five business days in December 1999 during which the
Common  Stock  traded  on  the  over  the  counter  market.

1.3.     Eligible  full-time  employees  or directors electing to receive Common
Stock in lieu of cash compensation should complete and submit to the Company the
election  form  attached  hereto  as EXHIBIT A to denote those months during the
1999 Calendar Year for which he or she desires that Common Stock be issued.  The
election  is  binding.

1.4.     Participating employees or directors will receive that number of Shares
equal to his or her compensation (not including discretionary bonuses, overtime,
and  other extra payments) for those months during Calendar Year 1999 denoted on
the  election  form.

2.     2000  Calendar  Year.
       --------------------

2.1.     Full  Election.

2.1.1.     Any  full-time  employee  and  non-employee  (outside)  director  who
intends  to  defer  all or part of his or her wage payments or fees due from the
Company  during  the period from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2000 (the "2000
Calendar  Year")  is  eligible  to  participate  in  the  Plan.

2.1.2.     Any  eligible full-time employee or director may elect to receive all
of  his  or her compensation for the 2000 Calendar Year in the form of Shares of
Common  Stock,  in  lieu  of  cash,  based  upon  the  Stock Price. Employees or
directors  so electing to receive Common Stock in lieu of 2000 cash compensation
(not including discretionary bonuses, overtime, and other extra payments) should
complete  and submit to the Company the election form attached hereto as EXHIBIT
B.  The  election  is  binding.

2.1.3.     Participating  employees  or  directors  will  receive that number of
Shares  equal  to  his  or  her  2000  compensation.

2.1.4.     If an electing employee or director terminates service before the end
of  the  2000 Calendar Year, he or she will return to the Company the portion of
Shares  (or their then cash-value) that corresponds to the remainder of the 2000
Calendar  Year. However, in the case of an employee who is laid off or otherwise
terminated  by  the  Company  (other  than for cause) before the end of the 2000
Calendar  Year,  he  or  she will not be obligated to return such Shares or cash
value.

2.2.     Partial  Election.

2.2.1.     Eligible  employees  or  directors  who  do  not  make  the  election
described  at  Section  2.1  may  elect  to  receive compensation for months the
Company may designate during the 2000 Calendar Year (the "Designated Months") as
follows:  As  cash  ("Option  A");  as  50% discounted stock ("Option B"); or as
Stock  at market value, with a guaranteed three times future value ("Option C").

2.2.2.     Any  eligible  employee  or  director  may  elect,  by completing and
submitting the election form attached hereto as EXHIBIT C, to receive his or her
compensation  for the Designated Months in any combination of Options A, B or C.
The  election is binding with respect to compensation for the Designated Months.

2.2.3.     Before  the beginning of each calendar month in the period January 1,
2000  through  December 31, 2000, the Company will notify each eligible employee
or  director  selecting Option B or C on an election form whether the month will
be  a  Designated  Month.  If it is, then the affected employee or director will
receive his or her compensation for the Designated Month in the manner set forth
in  the  election  form.

2.2.4.     An employee or director who elects Option B will receive on the first
business day of each Designated Month (or shortly thereafter) a number of Shares
equal to his or her compensation (not including discretionary bonuses, overtime,
and  other  extra  payments)  for the month, divided by one-half of the "Month's
Price."  The  "Month's  Price" means the average quoted closing bid for the last
five  business  days  of  the  preceding  month.

2.2.5.     An employee or director who elects Option C will receive on the first
business day of each Designated Month (or shortly thereafter) a number of Shares
equal to his or her compensation (not including discretionary bonuses, overtime,
and  other  extra  payments)  for  the  month,  divided  by  the  Month's Price.

2.2.6.     If an employee or director who elects Option B or Option C terminates
service  before  the  end  of  the  Designated  Month  for  which the Shares are
allocated,  he or she will return to the Company the portion of Shares (or their
then  cash  value)  that  corresponds  to the remainder of the Designated Month.
However,  in  the case of an employee who is laid off or otherwise terminated by
the Company (other than for cause) before the end of the Designated Month, he or
she  will  not  be  obligated  to  return  such  Shares  or  cash  value.

2.2.7.     If  an electing employee or director does not dispose of any Option C
Shares  for  30 months after the Shares are allocated and remains an employee or
director of the Company for such period, then the Company will make a payment to
the employee or director equal to the excess, if any, of the following equation:
(i)  Three-times  the  amount of cash compensation that the employee or director
elected  to receive in the form of Option C Shares for all the Designated Months
(or  for such shorter period if an employee was laid off or otherwise terminated
by  the  Company (other than for cause) before December 31, 2002) (the "Guaranty
Price"), minus (ii) the product of (A) the average quoted bid price for the five
business  days  before  the  conclusion  of  the  30-month period (the "30 Month
Price"),  multiplied by (B) the number of Option C Shares. (However, an employee
or  director  an employee who is laid off or otherwise terminated by the Company
(other  than  for  cause)  before  the end of the 30-month period is nonetheless
entitled  to  receive  the  payment  specified  in  the  first  sentence of this
section.)  The  Company  has  the  option to pay the excess in the form of cash,
additional  stock,  or  both.  In  the alternative, the Company may purchase the
Option  C  Shares  for  the  Guaranty  Price.

3.     Form  S-8  Registration.
       -----------------------

3.1.     The  Company  will  register 3,500,000 Shares for the Plan on Form S-8.
Upon the effectiveness of the Form S-8 registration statement, the Shares issued
under  the  plan  may  be  freely  traded,  subject  to  the  applicable  resale
limitations  set  forth  in General Instruction C to Form S-8.  Shares issued to
participants  may  be  authorized  but  unissued  Shares  or  treasury  shares.

3.2.     If  for  any  reason  the number of remaining authorized, but unissued,
Shares  under the Plan is less than the number of Shares that eligible employees
and  directors would otherwise be entitled to receive, each eligible employee or
director  who elected to receive Shares under Option B or Option C (an "Electing
Participant") shall receive the following number of Option B or Option C Shares:
(A/B)  x  C,  where  A is the number of remaining authorized but unissued Shares
under  the  Plan;  B is the total number of Shares (Option B and Option C) which
the  Electing  Participant  would otherwise be entitled to receive, and C is the
number  or  Option  B  or  Option  C  Shares that the Electing Participant would
otherwise  be  entitled  to  receive.

4.     Fees and Commissions.  No fees, commissions or other charges will be paid
       --------------------
by  the  electing  participants  in connection with the grants of Shares to such
persons  under  the  Plan.

5.      Taxes.  No later than the dates of which the value of any Shares granted
        -----
pursuant  to  this  Plan  first  becomes  includible  in  the gross income of an
electing  participant  for US federal income tax purposes, he or she will pay to
the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company, regarding payment
of, any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld
with  respect to the Shares. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement
shall  be  conditioned upon such payment or arrangements, and the Company shall,
to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any
payment  of  any  kind  otherwise  due  to  any  electing  participant.

6.     Securities  Laws.  Any future sale of any Shares granted pursuant to this
       ----------------
Plan  will  be  regulated by the Securities Act of 1933 Act, as amended, and any
applicable  state  or  provincial  law, rule or regulation.  The transfer of any
such Shares by an electing participant will be permitted only if the request for
transfer  is accompanied by evidence satisfactory to the Company and its counsel
that  such  transfer  will  not result in a violation of any applicable federal,
state  or  provincial  law,  rule  or  regulation.

7.     Market  Risk.  The  risk of an increase in the market price of the Shares
       ------------
shall  be  borne  solely  by  the Company.  The risk of a decrease in the market
price  of  the  Shares  shall  be  borne  solely  by  the electing participants.

8.     Conflicting  Agreements.  In  the  event of any conflict or inconsistency
       -----------------------
between  the  terms  of  this  Agreement  and  the  employment  or  directorship
agreements  of  the  electing  participants,  the  terms of this Agreement shall
prevail.

9.     Assignment.  Participants  in  the  Plan may unconditionally assign their
       ----------
interests  under  the  Plan.

10.     Governing Law.  The terms of this Agreement shall be governed by Georgia
        -------------
law,  without  regard  to  its  conflicts  of  law  principles.

11.     Counterparts.  This  Agreement  may be executed in several counterparts,
        -------------
each  of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall
constitute  one  and  the  same  instrument.

12.     Entire  Agreement.  This  Agreement,  together  with  the  election form
        -----------------
completed  by  an electing participant, constitutes the entire agreement between
the  Company  and  the  electing  participant.

13.     Amendments.  This  Agreement  shall  not be altered, amended or modified
        ----------
except  by  written  agreement  signed  by  the  parties  hereto.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, being duly authorized, hereby executes
this  Agreement  on  behalf  of  the Company as of the date first above written.
