                                   WITNESSETH:

                                    PREMISES

     SECTION 1. For the rent and upon the agreements contained in this Lease,
including the addendum (the "Addendum") hereto of even date herewith
(collectively, the "Lease"), Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant rents from
Landlord certain space as identified and consisting of the number of rentable
square feet set forth in the Addendum (the "Premises"), which is more
specifically identified on EXHIBIT A attached hereto and incorporated herein by
this reference. The Premises are located in a facility (the "Building") to be
known as 7800 Congress Centre, which building will be located at 7800 Congress
Avenue, Boca Raton, Florida. The Building is located on a portion of the PARK
(the "Building Site"), the legal description of which is attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference as EXHIBIT B.

                                 WORK AGREEMENT

     SECTION 2. Landlord and Tenant agree that improvements (the "Tenant Work")
are to be made to the Premises, in accordance with Schedule 3, attached hereto
and made a part hereof. Title to the Tenant Work shall vest in the Landlord
immediately upon installation on the Premises.

                               TERM AND POSSESSION

     SECTION 3. (a) The "Commencement Date" shall be that date when the
following have occurred:

     1. Landlord has completed all of the Building and Tenant Improvement Work
as required by and in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Tenant
Work Letter which is annexed hereto as Schedule 3;

     2. Landlord has secured a Certificate of Occupancy for the Building (if a
separate certificate for the Building can or will be issued by applicable
municipal officials) and a Certificate of Occupancy for the Premises issued by
the City of Boca Raton; and

     (b)  Landlord acknowledges that Tenant desires to occupy the premises by
July 21, 2000 ("Anticipated Commencement Date"). Landlord shall use best
efforts, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, to have the
Premises completed in accordance with Tenant's Plans and ready for occupancy by
the Anticipated Commencement Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligation
of Landlord to

                                      -1-
<PAGE>   2

deliver the Premises on the Anticipated Commencement Date is subject to the
following (i) Tenant reviewing, approving, executing and delivering the final
plans to Landlord prior to May 8, 2000; and (ii) delays described in paragraph
2(c) below.

     (c)  Should the completion of Tenant Improvements be actually delayed due
to (hereinafter referred to as "Tenant Delays")(i) any act or omission of Tenant
or any of its employees, agents or contractors; or (ii) any delays due to
changes in or additions to the Tenant Improvements requested by Tenant after
submission of Tenants plans, or (iii) any delays by Tenant in the submission of
plans, drawings, specifications or other information or in approving any working
drawings or estimates or in giving any authorizations or approvals with regard
to change orders, authorizations and approvals; or (iv) any additional time
needed for the completion of the Tenant Improvements by the inclusion by Tenant
in the Tenant Improvements of any long lead time items which are not part of the
building standard materials (provided that the Landlord notifies the Tenant
prior to the final selection of such items by Tenant that such items will be
considered a so-called long lead time item). Should delays be caused by Tenant's
failure to review, approve, execute and deliver final plans to Landlord prior to
May 8, 2000 or any of the events set forth in this Section, including those
items enumerated in (c)(i)-(iv) above, then the Commencement Date shall be
deemed to have occurred on the date when they would have been ready but for such
delay(s), and the Termination Date referred to in paragraph 2(d) of this
Section, shall be adjusted accordingly by the number of days delayed due to
Tenant Delays.

     (d)  In the event the Landlord has not delivered the Building and the
Premises to the Tenant as required by the terms and provisions of this Lease by
September 4, 2000, (specifically including force majeure delays) and provided
that such delay is not caused by a Tenant Delay or Tenant's failure to deliver
to Landlord fully executed signed off plans prior to May 8, 2000, the Tenant
shall be entitled to an abatement of Base Rent of one day for each day beyond
September 4, 2000 and each day thereafter that the Landlord does not deliver the
Building and the Premises to the Tenant in compliance with the terms of this
Lease. The abatement of Base Rent shall be applied to the next payment(s) of
Base Rent due from Tenant to Landlord. In the event that the Landlord has not
delivered the Building and the Premises as required by the terms of this Lease
to the Tenant by October 5, 2000 (specifically including force majeure delays)
and provided that such delay is not caused by a Tenant Delay or Tenant's failure
to deliver to Landlord fully executed signed off plans prior to May 8, 2000, the
Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by notice ("Notice of
Termination") given to the Landlord at any time on or after October 5, 2000 but
prior to delivery of the Building and the Premises in accordance with the terms
of this Lease to Tenant. In the event Tenant provides Landlord a Notice of
Termination, the Landlord shall have fourteen (14) days from the date of such
Notice of Termination to deliver the Building and Premises to Tenant in
accordance with the terms hereof. In such event of delivery within said fourteen
(14) day period, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect in accordance
with the terms hereof. Should Tenant elect to terminate the Lease, within
fifteen (15) days after termination, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant Thirty-Five
Thousand Dollars ($35,000.00) and the parties shall be released from any further
obligations under this Lease. If Tenant takes possession, Tenant's option to
terminate is waived and this Lease shall be in full force and effect.

     (e)  The term (the "Term") of this Lease shall be for a period of five (5)
years commencing when the Premises is ready for occupancy. Said term shall end
and expire (the "Expiration Date") on the last day of the fifth year following
the Commencement Date, unless sooner terminated or extended as may be
hereinafter provided. The Landlord and the Tenant shall within ten business days
after the occurrence of the Commencement Date execute a Term Certificate
substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F confirming the
Commencement Date and the Expiration Date of the Term.

                            BASE RENT, PREPAID RENT,
                             GENERAL RENT PROVISIONS

     SECTION 4.

     (a)  During the Term, as "Base Rent," Tenant shall pay to Landlord without
demand and without any deduction or setoff, except as otherwise specifically set
forth herein, the respective sums for the Premises and for each year as set
forth in the Addendum, subject to five percent (5%) annual increases, plus all
applicable sales and use taxes thereon, in equal (except for the first payment,
if prorated) monthly installments in advance, beginning on the respective Base
Rent Commencement Dates set forth in the Addendum and, thereafter, on the first
day of each and every month during the Term. Base Rent, Additional Rent and all
other amounts due from Tenant hereunder shall be payable to 7800 Congress, L.C.
and shall be sent to Leder Realty & Management, Inc. at 6530 West Rogers Circle,
Suite #31, Boca Raton, Florida 33487, unless Landlord shall otherwise notify
Tenant in writing. Base Rent and Additional Rent for a partial month shall be
due and payable on a pro rata daily basis on the first day that said rent
accrues in said month.

     (b)  All installments of Base Rent or Additional Rent (as defined
hereinafter) not paid within five (5) days after notice shall bear interest at
the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the due date (i.e., the first
day of the month) until paid; provided, however, that in no event shall such
rate exceed the maximum rate allowable by law. Without limiting the rights of
Landlord under this paragraph and paragraph 19, for each payment required
hereunder that is not received on or before the fifth (5th) day after notice,
Tenant shall immediately pay, a service charge equal five percent (5%) of the
amount overdue. This paragraph, however, shall not be construed to extend the
date for any payment required hereunder, and notwithstanding the imposition of
such service charge, Landlord shall retain all of its rights under paragraph 19
if any payment required to be made by Tenant is not made by Tenant when due, and
neither the demand for, nor collection by Landlord of such service charge shall
be construed as a cure of such failure of Tenant.

     (c)  Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord (i) a
security deposit (the "Security Deposit") in the amount set forth in the
Addendum, to be held by Landlord during the Term pursuant to the provisions of
Section 27 hereof; and (ii) prepaid rent (the "Prepaid Rent") in the amount set
forth in the Addendum, which Prepaid Rent shall be applied in payment of the
Base Rent or Additional Rent or both, and for the month(s), all as indicated in
the Addendum.

                                 ADDITIONAL RENT

     SECTION 5.

     (a)  Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as additional rent ("Additional
Rent") for the Premises, beginning on the respective date specified in the
Addendum (the "Additional Rent Commencement Date") and monthly thereafter
throughout the Term, one twelfth of Tenant's proportionate share (defined in
Section 5(e) herein and referred to as "Tenant's Proportionate Share") of the
annual operating expenses (which items are defined in this Section 5(a) and
referred to as "Operating Expenses"), or such stipulated amount therefor, if
any, as may be provided for in the Addendum, plus all applicable sales and use
taxes thereon. Said Operating Expenses shall be necessary for the operation of
the Building and shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. If such a stipulated amount is not so established, an
estimate of the monthly charge for Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Operating
Expenses for the first calendar year of the Term, or the portion thereof
remaining after the Commencement Date, shall be delivered to Tenant within ten
(10) days of the execution of this Lease by both parties hereto. The Operating
Expenses shall include the following:

                                      -3-
<PAGE>   4

     (i)  The cost of operating and maintaining the Building Common Areas (as
described in Section 8) and the Building Site Common Areas (as described in
Section 8) (the costs of which are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
"Common Area Cost"), including, without limitation, the cost of the following:
lighting, utilities, cleaning, line painting, maintenance, repairs, decorations,
insurance (including, without limitation, public liability and casualty
insurance), and replacements of paving, curbs, walkways, landscaping, drainage
facilities, public facilities, and lighting facilities, as may be necessary from
time to time. The Common Area Cost shall include depreciation of equipment
acquired for use in Common Area maintenance, but shall not include the original
cost thereof;

     (ii) Any real estate taxes and assessments (A) which shall or may become a
lien upon, become due and payable, or be assessed, imposed, or levied by lawful
taxing authorities against the Building, the Building Site and any other
improvements on the Building Site; (B) which arise in connection with the use,
occupancy, or possession of the Building Site or any part thereof; (C) which
become due and payable out of or for the Building Site, or any part thereof; or
(D) which are imposed, assessed, or levied in lieu of, in substitution for, or
in addition to any or all of the foregoing (collectively referred to hereinafter
as the "Tax Cost"). The Tax Cost shall not include any charge (such as a water
meter charge) which is measured by actual user consumption. A real estate tax
bill or copy thereof submitted by Landlord to Tenant shall be conclusive
evidence of the amount of any real estate taxes, assessments, or installment
thereof;

As soon as practicable after payment of said taxes by Landlord, Landlord shall
submit to Tenant copies of the complete tax bills for the calendar year, and
each year during the term of this Lease, Landlord shall send to the Tenant
copies of paid tax bills together with a bill showing Tenant's Proportionate
Share of taxes. The amount of taxes to be included each year for purposes of
this paragraph shall be the amount of the tax bills less any allowable discount
for prompt payment and in no case shall include any penalties or charges for
late payment. Tenant shall be credited within sixty (60) days of any amounts
received for abatement of any taxes paid during periods of Tenant's occupancy.
To the extent any abatement or refund is due to Tenant, and the Lease has
expired, Landlord shall refund Tenant, within sixty (60) days of any amounts
received for abatement of any taxes paid during the periods of Tenant's
occupancy.

     (iii) All premiums for public liability, fire and extended coverage or all
risk, business interruption, and/or any other insurance coverage which may
reasonably be carried by Landlord insuring the Premises, the Building, the
Building Site or any improvements thereon ("Insurance Cost"); and

     (iv) An amount equal to a monthly charge-off of any capital expenditure
made by Landlord for an improvement to the Building or the Building Site
designed to increase the operating efficiency of the Building and actually
reduces the operating costs of the Building. This monthly charge-off shall be
determined by dividing the original cost of the capital expenditure plus an
interest factor spread out over the useful life of the improvement (said
interest being the interest rate of Prime).

     (v)  All costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in operating, maintaining,
and managing the Building, in addition to the Common Area Cost ("Building
Services Cost"), including, without limitation, the following: ordinary and
normal maintenance and repairs, employee wages (including social security and
other normal and customary benefits), payroll taxes, workers' compensation
insurance, pension benefits, management fees, the cost of water, sewage or any
other utilities provided to the Building (except for electricity, gas, and air
conditioning), to the extent not separately metered, garbage collection and
rubbish removal, and other costs and expenses necessarily, reasonably, and
customarily incurred by Landlord in the proper operation, maintenance, and
management of the Building and the Building Site.

     (vi) Those special assessments under the Declaration to the extent imposed
by laws enacted after the date hereof allocable to the Building Site, as
described in Section 7 hereof. Landlord hereby certifies to the best of his
knowledge that there are no outstanding Association Expenses as of the date
hereof.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>   5

     (vii) All electricity, gas, air conditioning service costs and refuse
collection ("Utility Cost") provided to the Premises by Landlord pursuant to
Sections 12(c), (g) and (h).

     (viii) The Landlord, at its sole discretion, may provide a security service
system which may include security guards, electronic devices or a security guard
gate and gate-house. In the event that the Landlord elects to obtain such a
security service system, then the Tenant shall pay Tenant's Proportionate Share
of the security service system expenses ("Security Expenses") monthly as
Additional Rent. The Landlord shall not be responsible for the performance of
the independent obligations of security guards (who shall be independent
contractors), and the Tenant hereby releases the Landlord from any claims of any
nature whatsoever arising out of or in connection with any contracts for
security guard services. The Tenant further acknowledges that should said
security guard services be provided on a negligent basis, that Tenant's sole and
exclusive remedy shall be to seek recovery against the security service company.

     (b)  Prior to the beginning of each calendar year, Landlord shall estimate
the monthly charge (i.e., one twelfth of the estimated annual amount) for
Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Operating Expenses for the upcoming calendar
year and give Tenant written notice of such estimate within 30 days prior to the
first day of said calendar year. Tenant shall pay one-twelfth (1/12) of such
amount, or such preestablished monthly amount on account thereof as may be
provided for in the Addendum, as Additional Rent, on the first day of each
month, throughout such calendar year. Within 90 days after the end of each
calendar year, the compilation of all of such year's bills and the resolution of
any contested bills, including taxes and assessments, Landlord shall furnish
Tenant a statement, including copies of all tax bills for the prior period, of
the actual Operating Expenses for such calendar year (the "Reconciliation
Operating Expense Statement"). Tenant shall pay any deficiency upon thirty (30)
days receipt of Landlord's notice thereof. Any surplus paid by Tenant during the
preceding calendar year shall be applied against the next monthly installments
of Additional Rent due from Tenant or refunded to Tenant within sixty (60) days
if Term has expired.

     (c)  During any part of the Term which shall be less than a full calendar
year, Landlord's estimated Operating Expenses shall be prorated on a daily basis
so that Tenant shall pay Tenant's Proportionate Share (or such other amount as
set forth in Section 5(f) below) of such expenses attributable to the portion of
the calendar year occurring within the Term. Any deficiency or surplus in the
amount so collected from Tenant for Operating Expenses which occurs in the last
year of the Term shall be determined by Landlord, and notice of such
determination given to Tenant within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the
end of the calendar year in which such deficiency or surplus occurs. In the
event a surplus is determined to exist, Landlord shall deliver payment thereof
to Tenant with said notice. In the event a deficiency is determined to exist,
Tenant shall deliver payment thereof to Landlord within thirty (30) days of
receipt of said notice.

     (d)  Any and all sums of money or charges required to be paid by Tenant
under this Lease and not constituting Base Rent, whether or not the same are so
designated, shall be considered Additional Rent and shall be due and payable no
later than the due date of the next installment of Base Rent. Nothing herein
shall limit any other remedy Landlord may have.

     (e)  If the building is One Hundred percent (100%) leased or less, Landlord
and Tenant hereby stipulate that Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Building is
deemed to be the respective percentage set forth in the Addendum, which
percentage equals the ratio of the rentable square footage of the Premises to
One Hundred percent (100%) of the total rentable square footage of the Building,
as determined by Landlord. Rentable square footage of the Building is 40,763
square feet.

     (f)  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, it is
agreed that in the event the Building is not fully occupied during any year of
the Lease Term, the Operating Expenses shall be allocated for Tenant's Premises
according to the ratio of Tenant's rentable square feet to One Hundred (100%) of
the total rentable square footage of the Building.

     (g)  A description of items included, but not limited to, as Operating
Expenses is attached hereto as Schedule 2. A description of items excluded, but
not limited to, as Operating Expenses is attached hereto as Schedule 2-A.

     (h)  Within ninety (90) days of receipt of Landlord's Reconciliation
Operating Expense Statement, Tenant may audit Landlord's Expenses in order to
verify the accuracy of CAM charges provided that:

          (i)  Such audit will be conducted only during regular business hours
at the office where Landlord maintains Operating Expense records and only after
tenant gives Landlord fourteen (14) days' advanced written notice.

          (ii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of the results of such
audit within thirty (30) days of its receipt by Tenant from Tenant's Auditor.

          (iii) No audit shall be conducted at any time that Tenant is in
default after expiration of all applicable notice and cure periods of any of the
terms of the Lease.

          (iv) No subtenant shall have any right to conduct an audit and no
assignee shall conduct an audit for any period during which such assignee was
not in possession of the Premises. This provision shall not apply to Permitted
Transferees (as hereinafter defined).

All of the information obtained through the Tenant's audit with respect to
financial matters (including, without limitation, costs, expenses, income) and
any other matters pertaining to the Landlord and/or the Lease Space as well as
any compromise, settlement, or adjustment reached between Landlord and Tenant
relative to the results of the audit shall be held in strict confidence by the
Tenant and its officers, agents and employees except in connection with any
litigation. In the event Landlord and Tenant agree to an error of accounting,
Landlord agrees to reimburse Tenant the amount of Tenant's overpayment and if
Landlord fails to reimburse Tenant within sixty (60) days thereafter, Tenant
shall be entitled to a credit against any rent due hereunder. Should Tenant fail
to commence an audit within ninety (90) days from receipt of Landlord's
estimate, Tenant's right to Audit shall be deemed waived.

Landlord for the cost of the meter, the cost of the installation thereof and the
cost of the water consumption throughout the duration of Tenant's occupancy.
Landlord shall maintain the meter and related equipment in good working order
and repair at Tenant's own expense. If Tenant defaults in this obligation,
Landlord may replace or repair the meter and

                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9

collect the cost thereof from Tenant. Tenant agrees to pay for water consumed,
as shown on said meter as and when the bills are rendered. Any amounts due
hereunder from Tenant shall be deemed Additional Rent. If permitted by law,
Landlord agrees at all times during the term of the Lease to use its best
efforts to competitively bid all contracts to provide utility services to the
Building.

     (b)  Limited access to the Building, i.e. locked to the public, during
other than Normal Business Hours (as defined in the Building Rules) shall be
provided in such form as Landlord deems appropriate. Landlord, however, shall
have no liability to Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees or licensees other
than due to willful negligence by Landlord for losses due to theft or burglary,
or for damages done by unauthorized persons on the Premises or in the Building,
and Landlord shall not be required to insure against any such losses. Tenant
shall cooperate fully in Landlord's efforts to maintain security in the Building
and shall follow all regulations promulgated by Landlord with respect thereto.
The Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is not providing security services for the
Premises, the Building or the Building Site. Security provided by Landlord is
limited to the following: (a) the perimeter access to 7800 Congress Centre will
be monitored via a coded access security system; and (b) the building will be
locked with dual mag locks Monday through Friday from 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM.
Tenant, its employees, agents and invitees shall have access to the Premises via
a security code twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week.

     (c)  Central heat and air conditioning during Normal Business Hours at such
temperatures and in such amounts as are considered by Landlord to be Building
Standard (as defined in the Building Rules) or as required by governmental
authority. Heating and air conditioning service shall be provided at other times
(as established by the Building Rules) only upon the written request of Tenant
delivered to Landlord in accordance with the Building Rules. Tenant shall bear
the actual cost of such additional service plus a monthly twenty-five Dollar
($25.00) administration fee including all electricity demand charges, use charge
and all applicable taxes thereto. Attached as Exhibit G are HVAC specifications.

     (d)  Standard routine maintenance and electric lighting service for all
Building Common Areas, as determined by Landlord to be necessary.

     (e)  Cleaning and janitorial service, Monday through Fridays, exclusive of
normal Business Holidays (Attached as EXHIBIT E are janitorial specifications);
provided, however, if Tenant's floor covering or other improvements require
special treatment, Tenant shall pay the additional cleaning cost attributable
thereto as Additional Rent upon presentation of a statement therefor by
Landlord. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord as Additional Rent the additional
cost of removal from the Building of any of Tenant's refuse and rubbish which
exceeds the refuse and rubbish usually consistent with the use of the Premises
as offices as reasonably determined by Landlord. Landlord shall deliver to
Tenant statements for the same which shall be due and payable upon thirty days
from receipt of Landlord delivery of said statements. Business Holidays shall
include New Years Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veterans Day,
Thanksgiving Day and Christmas.

     (f)  Passenger elevator service during Normal Business Hours. Elevator
service at other times shall be at Landlord's option and when so provided shall
never be deemed a continuing obligation of Landlord. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, at least one passenger elevator shall be available twenty-four hours
a day.

     (g)  Electrical current for standard building lighting fixtures and for
normal incidental uses. The electric current for standard building lighting
fixtures is 277 volts and for incidental uses (equipment normal to office usage)
is 120 volts. The Tenant-connected electrical load shall not exceed 3.5 watts
per square foot of the Premises for the 277 volt service or 5.0 watts per square
foot of the Premises for the 120 volt service. If Tenant's requirements for
electricity are in excess of those set forth in the preceding sentence, Landlord
reserves the right to require Tenant to procure electricity for the excess
requirements at Tenant's expense by arranging with the public utility providing
electricity to the Building for separate metering of electricity to the
Premises.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10

     (h)  Refuse removal consistent with normal office usage.

     (i)  Placement and replacement of all necessary light bulbs, tubes and
ballasts required to maintain a light level throughout Premises adequate for
Tenant's business operations.

     (j)  Such repainting as is necessary to maintain the Building in
first-class condition.

     The failure by Landlord to any extent to furnish, or the interruption,
cessation or termination of services in whole or in part, or any curtailment in
the use of the Premises resulting from any of the matters and due to labor
disturbances, governmental restrictions or shortages, or other causes beyond
Landlord's reasonable control (specifically excluding negligence) shall not
render Landlord liable in any respect nor be construed as an eviction
(constructive or otherwise) of Tenant, nor work an abatement of rent, nor
relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement of this
Lease. If any of the equipment or machinery used to provide the foregoing
services does not function properly, Tenant shall have no claim for offset or
abatement of rent or damages on account of any resulting interruption in
service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any essential services such as HVAC,
water or electricity supplied by Landlord are interrupted for a period of four
(4) consecutive business days and the interruption renders the Premises
unhabitable and Tenant is unable to operate its business, Tenant shall be
entitled to an abatement of Base Rent and Additional Rent which shall begin on
the 4th business day of the interruption. The abatement shall end when the
services are restored. The foregoing rent abatement shall not apply to any
interruption of service caused by negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant,
its employees, invitees, or agents.

                          WAIVER OF LIABILITY BY TENANT

     SECTION 13.

     Neither Landlord nor any of its agents, officers, principals or employees
shall be liable for, and Tenant waives all claims against such parties, or any
of them, for damage to person or property sustained by Tenant or any person
claiming through Tenant resulting from any accident or occurrence in, or upon
the Premises, unless due to the intentional nonperformance, negligence, gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or the respective agent(s),
employee(s), officer(s) or principal(s).

                          INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

     SECTION 14. (a) Tenant will indemnify Landlord and save Landlord harmless
from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liability, and expense in
connection with loss, damage, or injury to persons or property occurring in, on,
or about, arising out of the Premises, occasioned wholly or in part by any
negligent or wrongful act or omission of Tenant, Tenant's agents, contractors,
customers, or employees. The foregoing shall not apply to any loss, claim,
damage, liability or expenses arising out of or resulting from any willful
negligence of Landlord or its agents, contractors, subcontractors or employees.

     (b)  Tenant shall, directly or indirectly, at all times during the Term and
during any other period that Tenant actually occupies any portion of the
Premises, at its own expense, keep in full force and effect public liability
insurance and property insurance, with reputable insurers accepted in the
industry, providing for coverage no less than $500,000 per person, $1,000,000
per occurrence for public liability (including bodily injury or death) and
$200,000 per occurrence for property damage. In each case, such liability
policies shall name Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee (of whom Tenant has
notice) as additional insureds on Tenant's liability policies. Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date, a certificate of insurance
evidencing each type of coverage required herein. The policies shall provide
that the insurer cannot cancel the policy without at least twenty (20) days'
prior written notice to Landlord.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

     (c)  Tenant shall not carry on any activity in or about the Premises which
will in any way cause an increase in the insurance rates on the Premises and/or
the Building. Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent upon demand any increases in
such insurance rates resulting from Tenant's particular use of the Premises to
the extent not applicable to the Building as a whole.

     (d)  Landlord shall maintain a policy of general comprehensive liability
insurance with respect to the Building and comprehensive property damage
insurance to cover the replacement cost of the Building and Tenant Work and
shall also maintain during any construction of the Building and Tenant Work, a
Builder's Risk Policy.

     (e)  Landlord shall save Tenant harmless and indemnified against injury,
loss or damage to any persons or property on or about the Leased Premises as a
result of a claim or liability arising from any omission, neglect or default of
Landlord, its agents, servants and assigns.

     (f)  Tenant shall have the right to self insure or to provide its required
insurance coverage pursuant to blanket policies obtained by the Tenant, provided
such blanket policies afford coverage to the Premises, Landlord, and Tenant.

                                     SIGNS

     SECTION 15. Tenant acknowledges that the Declaration contains restrictions
on the type and location of signs on the Building. Accordingly, Tenant shall not
erect or install any sign except in strict conformity with the standards
described in the Declaration, as determined by Landlord in Landlord's sole
discretion. Landlord may determine type, location and content of any sign for
Tenant. Landlord shall provide and install, at its sole cost and expense, all
letters or numerals at doors in the Premises and in such other locations as
determined by Landlord. All such letters and numerals shall be in the standard
graphics for the Building as determined by Landlord and no others shall be used
or permitted on the Premises without Landlord's prior written consent.

                           ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

     SECTION 16. (a) This Lease shall not be mortgaged, pledged, assigned, or
otherwise transferred by Tenant, or the Premises or any part thereof sublet,
used, or occupied for the conduct of any business by any other party or for any
purpose other than herein authorized without the express prior written consent
of the Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed, and the Landlord's present mortgagee ("Mortgagee"), or if required,
any future mortgagee of Landlord.

     (b)  In the event the Tenant seeks the Landlord's consent pursuant to this
Section 16, the Tenant shall furnish the Landlord with such information
regarding the prospective assignee or sublessee as the Landlord may reasonably
require, including without limitation information regarding financial ability
relating to the uses permitted hereunder. Any consents to any assignment or
subletting shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for consent to any
subsequent assignment or subletting to the extent the consent of the Landlord is
so required.

     (c)  In the event of any assignment or other transfer of this Lease by
Tenant, specifically excluding one for a Permitted Transferee, (i) Tenant shall
remain liable for performance of all obligations of the assignee or transferee
of Tenant hereunder, and Tenant hereby agrees to absolutely and unconditionally
guarantee the performance hereunder of such assignee or transferee; and (ii) any
rent which Tenant receives pursuant to any sublease in excess of the Base Rent
and the Additional Rent shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, less all of
Tenant's expenses associated with procuring said sublease. Within the ten (10)
business

                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12

day period in which Landlord shall have to consent or reject said sublease
referred to in paragraph 16(d) herein, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a
detailed accounting of Tenant's deductible expenses.

     (d)  If an assignment or subletting is proposed to be made and Landlord's
consent is required as herein provided, Tenant shall give Landlord prior notice
of such proposal, which such notice shall include such information as Landlord
may reasonably request, and it is understood that Landlord shall use diligent
efforts within a period of ten (10) business days after the submission of such
information by Tenant to make its determination whether Landlord's approval is
to be granted hereunder. If Tenant requests Landlord's consent to assign this
Lease or sublet more than sixty percent (60%) of the Premises, Landlord shall
have the option, exercisable by written notice which notice shall include all
the proposed material terms of the sublease or assignment, to Tenant given
within ten (10) days after receipt of such request, to recapture the portion of
the Premises proposed to be assigned or sublet as of a date specified in such
notice which shall be not less than sixty (60), or more than ninety (90) days
after the date of such notice, in such event the recaptured area of the Premises
shall be removed from the Premises and Tenant shall have no further liabilities
or obligations with respect thereto, including obligations to pay Fixed Rent,
additional rent or other charges with respect thereto. If Landlord exercises its
option to recapture, Landlord may then lease the Premises or any portion thereof
to Tenant's proposed assignee or subtenant, as the case may be, without
liability whatsoever to the Tenant.

     (e)  Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Lease, no consent of
Landlord shall be required for the assignment of this Lease or the subletting of
any portion (or the whole) of the Premises for the Permitted Uses, (i) to a
subsidiary of Tenant, (ii) to a corporation or other entity into or with which
Tenant has merged or consolidated or to which substantially all of Tenant's
stock or assets are transferred, (iii) to any corporation or other entity which
controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant, or (iv) to
any corporation or other entity with which Tenant is otherwise affiliated
(collectively, the "Permitted Transferees"); provided that, in any of such
events, Tenant shall remain directly and primarily liable and any such sublessee
or assignee agrees directly with Landlord by written instrument reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord and such assignee or sublessee to be bound by all of
the obligations of Tenant. In the event of any such assignment or subletting for
which no consent by Landlord is required hereunder, the recapture rights of
Landlord set forth in the preceding paragraph shall not be applicable.

     (f)  If Tenant shall purport to assign this Lease, or sublet all or any
portion of the Premises, or permit any person or person other than Tenant to
occupy the Premises, Landlord may collect rent from the person or persons then
or thereafter occupying the Premises and apply the net amount collected to the
rent reserved herein, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of this
Section 16, or the acceptance as tenant of any such purported assignee,
subtenant or occupant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by
Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained.

     (g)  Landlord shall have the right to sell, convey, transfer or assign all
or part of its interest in the real property and the buildings of which the
Premises are a part or its interest in this Lease. All covenants and obligations
of Landlord under this Lease shall cease upon the execution of such conveyance,
transfer or assignment, but all such covenants and obligations shall run with
the land and shall be binding upon the subsequent owner or owners thereof and/or
of this Lease.

                                    CASUALTY

     SECTION 17.

     (a)  If the Premises shall be destroyed or so injured by any cause as to be
unfit, in whole or in part, for occupancy and such destruction or injury (i) is
not the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any of
its employees, officers, agents or contractors, and (ii) could reasonably be
repaired within six (6) months from the date of the casualty (as determined by
an independent engineer), Landlord shall notify Tenant within thirty (30) days
after the happening of such destruction or injury Tenant shall not be entitled
to surrender possession of the Premises nor shall Tenant's liability to pay rent
under this Lease cease without the mutual consent of the parties hereto; and
Landlord shall repair the damage or injury with all reasonable speed and shall
complete such repairs within six (6) months from the date of the casualty. If
during such period Tenant shall be deprived of the use of all or any portion of
the Premises which leaves the Premises uninhabitable, there shall be an
abatement of the Base Rent and the Additional Rent corresponding to the time
during which and to the portion of the Premises of which Tenant shall be so
deprived.

     (b)  If such destruction or injury cannot reasonably be repaired within six
(6) months of the casualty (as determined by an independent engineer), Landlord
shall notify Tenant within thirty (30) days after the happening of such
destruction or injury whether or not Landlord will repair or rebuild. If
Landlord elects not to repair or rebuild, this Lease shall be terminated. If
Landlord shall elect to repair or rebuild, Landlord shall specify the time
within which such repairs or reconstruction will be completed, and Tenant shall
have the option within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice to
elect either to terminate this Lease and any further liability hereunder or to
extend the term of the Lease by a period of time equivalent to the time from the
happening of such destruction or injury until the Premises are restored to their
former condition. In the event Tenant elects to extend the Term of the Lease,
Landlord shall restore the Premises to the condition as originally delivered to
Tenant within the time specified in such notice, and Tenant shall not be liable
to pay any rent for the period from the time of such destruction or injury until
the Premises are so restored to their former condition.

          With respect to Section 17(a) and 17(b), Tenant shall have the right
to terminate if Landlord fails to notify Tenant after of its intention with
respect to the restoration within thirty (30) days after the date of casualty
and shall have a further right to terminate if Landlord fails to restore the
Premises in the period of time warranted by Landlord in Landlord's notice to
Tenant unless the delay, in the case of Section 17(a) and 17(b), is due to labor
disturbances, governmental restrictions or shortages, or other causes beyond
Landlord's reasonable control for a period not to exceed forty-five (45) days.

     (c)  In addition to all rights to cancel or terminate this Lease given to
the parties in Sections 17(a) and (b) hereof, if the Premises and/or Building
are destroyed or damaged during the last year of the Term, to the extent of
fifty percent (50%) or more of the then value of the Premises and/or the
Building, then Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to cancel and terminate
this Lease as of the date of such damage or destruction by giving notice thereof
within thirty (30) days after the date of said damage or destruction.

     (d)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 17(a),
(b) or (c) hereof, Landlord may cancel this Lease with no further liability to
Tenant in the event that following destruction or injury to the Premises,
Landlord's Mortgagee elects to require Landlord to apply any insurance proceeds
paid to Landlord as a result of the casualty to reduce any debt secured by the
Building.

                                      -13-
<PAGE>   14

     (e)  All obligations of Landlord to restore shall include restoration of
the Tenant Improvement Work.

                                  CONDEMNATION

     SECTION 18.

     (a)  In the event the entire Premises shall be taken by condemnation or
right of eminent domain, this Lease shall terminate as of the day possession
shall be taken by the taking authority, and Landlord and Tenant shall be
released from any further liability hereunder thereafter accruing. In the event
only a portion of the Premises shall be taken by condemnation or right of
eminent domain and the portion so taken renders the balance unsuitable for the
purpose of this Lease, either the Landlord or the Tenant shall be entitled to
terminate this Lease, such termination to become effective as of the day
possession shall be taken, provided thirty (30) days notice in writing of such
termination is given. If, in such case, this Lease is not terminated, Landlord
agrees to restore the Premises with reasonable speed to an architectural unit as
nearly like its condition prior to such taking as shall be practicable, and if
during and/or after the work of restoration, Tenant is deprived of the use of
all or a part of the Premises, an appropriate reduction of all rent (including
reduction in Tenant's Proportionate Share in the Building), depending upon the
time during which and the portion of said Premises of which Tenant is so
deprived, shall be granted.

          Tenant shall have a right to terminate the Lease if Landlord fails to
restore the Premises within six (6) months after the condemnation date.

     (b)  All damages awarded in connection with the taking of the Premises,
whether allowed as compensation for diminution in value to the leasehold or to
the fee of the Premises, shall belong to the Landlord. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant shall be entitled to make a separate claim against the
condemning authority for damage to personal property, equipment, merchandise and
fixtures, and removal, re-installation and moving expenses.

     (c)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 18(a),
(b) or (c) hereof, Landlord may cancel this Lease with no further liability to
Tenant in the event that following a taking by condemnation or right of eminent
domain, Landlord's Mortgagee elects to require Landlord to apply any proceeds
paid to Landlord as a result of the condemnation or eminent domain proceedings
to reduce the debt secured by the Building Site.

                        LANDLORD'S REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT

     SECTION 19. (a) If Tenant shall at any time (i) be in default in the
payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent, or other sums of money required to be
paid by Tenant and Tenant shall fail to remedy such default within five (5) days
after Tenant receives notice from Landlord of Tenant's failure to pay Base Rent
or Additional Rent, which Landlord shall not be obligated to give Tenant notice
more than two times during every 12 month period; (ii) violate any restriction
or rule in the Building Rules or the Declaration and fail to remedy such
violation within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice thereof except
that if such default is of the nature which is reasonably curable but requires
more than thirty (30) days to commence, then within such longer period as is
reasonable to cure such default if Tenant commences to diligently cure; (iii) be
in default in the performance of any other covenant, term, condition, provision,
rule or regulation of this Lease, and Tenant shall fail to remedy such default
within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice thereof except that if
such default is of the nature which is reasonably curable but requires more than
fifteen (15) days to commence, then within such longer period as is reasonable
to cure such default if Tenant commences to diligently cure; (iv) violate the
provisions of Section 34(b) hereof; (v) fail to continuously occupy and conduct
Tenant's business on the Premises without continuing to pay Base Rent,
Additional Rent or other sums due hereunder; or (vi) become insolvent or make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors,

                                      -14-
<PAGE>   15

or if a receiver or trustee of Tenant's property shall be appointed, or if
proceedings under any chapter of the United States Bankruptcy Code shall be
instituted by or against Tenant and shall not be dismissed within sixty (60)
days after being filed, or if any event shall happen which, aside from this
provision, would cause any assignment or devolution of Tenant's interest or
occupancy hereunder by operation of law; then, in any such event, Landlord, in
addition to all other remedies given to Landlord in law or in equity, may by
written notice to Tenant, terminate this Lease, or without terminating this
Lease, re-enter the Premises by summary proceedings or otherwise. In any event
Landlord may dispossess the Tenant, it being the understanding that under no
circumstances is this Lease to be an asset for Tenant's creditors by operation
of law or otherwise.

     In the event of such re-entry Landlord shall use due diligence to relet the
Premises as any other vacant space. However, Tenant's Premises will not be
treated as a priority over any other vacant space. In the event of a reletting,
Landlord shall apply the rent therefrom first to the payment of Landlord's
reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees incurred by reason of Tenant's
default, and the expense of reletting, including repairs of the Premises and
leasing commissions, and then to the amount of Base Rent, Additional Rent, and
all other sums due from Tenant hereunder, Tenant remaining liable for all other
sums due from Tenant hereunder and for any deficiency. Any and all such
deficiencies shall be payable by the Tenant monthly on the date herein provided
for the payment of Base Rent.

     (b)  In the event of a default by Tenant of any of the terms, provisions,
covenants, conditions, rules and regulations of this Lease and after any
applicable cure periods, if any, Landlord shall have the right to invoke any
remedy permitted to Landlord in law or in equity, including the right to
terminate this Lease. Such remedies shall include the right to sue immediately
for any and all damages, including immediate payment of the present value (using
the Prime Rate at that time) of all Base Rent and Additional Rent owing for the
remainder of the term hereof. No termination of this Lease and no taking or
recovering of possession of the Premises shall deprive Landlord of any of its
remedies or actions against Tenant and Tenant shall remain liable for all past
or future Base Rent, Additional Rent, and all other charges payable by Tenant
under this Lease, during and for the balance of the term hereof, unless
otherwise specifically provided for by this Lease. The bringing of any action
for rent or other default shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to
obtain possession of the Premises.

     (c)  If suit shall be brought for recovery of possession of the Premises,
for the recovery of rent, or any other amount due under the provisions of this
Lease, or because of the breach of any other covenant herein contained on the
part of Tenant to be kept or performed, and breach shall be established, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord all reasonable expenses incurred therefor, including
attorneys' fees.

     (d)  All rights and remedies provided herein or otherwise existing at law
or in equity are cumulative, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies
by either party shall not preclude or waive its right to the exercise of any or
all of the others.

                               DISCHARGE OF LIENS

     SECTION 20.

     Tenant shall not do or suffer anything to be done whereby the Premises,
Building, or Building Site may be encumbered by any liens of mechanics,
laborers, or materialmen, chattel mortgages or any other liens. Tenant shall,
whenever and as often as any such liens are filed purporting to be for labor or
material furnished or to be furnished to Tenant and by contractors pursuant to
contracts with Tenant, discharge the same of record within ten (10) days after
the date of filing by payment, bonding or otherwise, as provided by law. Tenant,
upon reasonable notice and request in writing from Landlord, shall also defend
for Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, any action, suit, or proceeding
which may be brought on or for the enforcement of any such Tenant liens. Tenant
will pay any damages and satisfy and discharge any judgments entered in such
action, suit, or proceeding and save harmless the Landlord from any liability,
claim, or

                                      -15-
<PAGE>   16

damages resulting therefrom. In default of Tenant procuring the discharge, as
aforesaid, of any such lien, Landlord may, with ten (10) days prior notice,
procure the discharge thereof by bonding or payment or otherwise, and all costs
and expenses incurred by Landlord in obtaining such discharge shall be paid by
Tenant as additional rent within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord of the
amount thereof.

                              LIABILITY OF LANDLORD

     SECTION 21.

     If Landlord shall fail to perform any covenant, term, or condition of this
Lease upon Landlord's part to be performed and, as a consequence of such
default, Tenant shall recover a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment
shall be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon execution of
such judgment and levy thereon against the right, title, and interest of
Landlord in the Building as the same may then be encumbered, and neither
Landlord, nor any of its partners, shall be liable for any deficiency. It is
understood and agreed that in no event shall Tenant have any right to levy
execution against any property of Landlord other than its interest in the
Building. Such right of execution shall be subordinate and subject to any
mortgage or other encumbrance upon the Building. In the event of the sale or
other transfer of Landlord's right, title, and interest in the Premises or the
Building, Landlord shall be released from all liability and obligations
hereunder accruing after the date of such sale or other transfer, subject to the
terms and provisions of Section 16(g).

                                RIGHT OF LANDLORD

     SECTION 22. (a) Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times, by
itself or its duly authorized agents, to go upon and inspect the Premises and
every part thereof, and at its option to make repairs, alterations, and
additions to the Premises, the Building, or the Building Site, with prior notice
to Tenant, except in the case of an emergency, in which event Landlord may enter
at any time without notice. Except in cases of emergencies, all such entries
shall be in the presence of Tenant, Tenant's employees or agents and shall not
interfere with the business operations of Tenant.

     (b)  If Landlord shall make any payments on behalf of Tenant which are
Tenant's obligation in order to fulfill Tenant's covenants, then any actual
amounts so paid by Landlord are agreed and declared to be items of Additional
Rent and shall be due and payable to Landlord from Tenant with the next
installment of Base Rent due thereafter under this Lease. Any such amounts which
shall be paid by Landlord on behalf of Tenant shall be invoiced and bear
interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum, provided in no event
shall such rate to be charged to Tenant be in excess of that otherwise permitted
by law.

                   MORTGAGE SUBORDINATION AND ESTOPPEL LETTER

     SECTION 23. (a) Tenant understands, acknowledges and agrees that this Lease
is and shall be subordinate to any mortgage, ground lease or other lien now
existing or hereafter placed on or affecting the Premises, the Building, or the
Building Site, or any part thereof, and to any renewals, refinancing or
extensions and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security
thereof. This shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination
shall be required by any mortgagee or lender hereof. Further, Tenant agrees upon
demand or request of any party in interest, to execute promptly such further
commercially reasonable instruments or certificates, in a form acceptable to
Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee and Tenant, to carry out the intent hereof. As
of the date hereof, Suntrust is the sole holder of any mortgage or ground lease
affecting the Premises, Building or Building Site. Within (10) days after

                                      -16-

to Tenant, Landlord and Mortgagee) recognizing the rights of Tenant under this
Lease and agreeing not to dispossess Tenant so long as Tenant is not in default
hereunder.

     (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 23(a) hereof, any mortgagee
may at any time subordinate the lien of its mortgage to the operation and effect
of this Lease without obtaining the Tenant's consent thereto, by giving the
Tenant written notice thereof, in which event this Lease shall be deemed to be
senior to such mortgage without regard to their respective dates of execution,
delivery, and/or recordation among the land records of the county in which the
Building is located, and thereafter such mortgagee shall have the same rights as
to this Lease as it would have had, were this Lease executed and delivered
before the execution of such mortgage.

     (c)  Tenant and Landlord shall, within ten (10) business days from request
by either party, execute and deliver to such persons as Landlord or Tenant shall
request a statement in recordable and commercially reasonable form certifying
that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have
been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as so modified),
stating the dates to which rent and other charges payable under this Lease have
been paid, stating that either party is not in default hereunder (or if Tenant
alleges a default stating the nature of such alleged default) and further
stating such other matters as Landlord, Tenant, or its mortgagee(s) shall
reasonably require.

                              NO WAIVER BY LANDLORD

     SECTION 24. No waiver of any of the terms, covenants, provisions,
conditions, rules, and regulations imposed or required by this Lease, and no
waiver of any legal or equitable relief or remedy shall be implied by the
failure of Landlord to assert any rights or to declare any forfeiture, or for
any other reason. No waiver of any of said terms, provisions, covenants, rules,
and regulations shall be valid unless it shall be in writing signed by the
Landlord. No waiver or forgiveness of performance by Landlord in respect to one
or more tenants of the Building shall constitute a waiver or forgiveness of
performance in favor of Tenant herein, or any other tenant. No waiver of any
pledge of this Lease or the forgiveness of performance of any one or more of the
terms, provisions, conditions, rules, and regulations of this Lease may be
claimed or pleaded by Tenant to excuse a subsequent pledge or failure of
performance of any other terms, provisions, conditions, covenants, rules, and
regulations of this Lease. This provision does not, however, discharge or
release the Landlord from the timely completion of its obligations under the
terms of this Lease.

                             VACATION OF THE PREMISE

     SECTION 25.

     Tenant shall deliver and surrender to Landlord possession of the Premises,
including all Tenant improvements (and all replacements thereof) and all
fixtures permanently attached to the Premises during the Term, upon the
expiration of the term or the termination of this Lease in any other way in as
good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear and insured casualty excepted;
provided, however, that upon Landlord's request made at least thirty (30) days
prior to the end of the Term or the date Tenant is otherwise required to vacate
the Premises, or prior to the installation of the same upon notice requested in
writing by Tenant to Landlord, Tenant shall remove all fixtures and equipment
affixed to the Premises by Tenant, and restore the Premises to good condition,
ordinary wear and tear and insured casualty excepted, at Tenant's sole expense.
Such removal shall be performed prior to the earlier of the end of the Term, or
the date Tenant is required to vacate the Premises.

satisfactory performance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease
including the payment of Basic Rent and Additional Rent.

     (b)  Landlord may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the
security so deposited to the extent required for the payment of any Basic Rent
and Additional Rent or any other sum as to which Tenant is in default, after
expiration of all applicable notice and grace periods, or for any sum which
Landlord may expend or may be required to expend by reason of Tenant's default,
after expiration of all applicable notice and grace periods, in respect of any
of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease including any damages or
deficiency in the re-letting of the demised premises or other reentry by
Landlord. If Landlord uses, applies or retains the whole or any part of the
security Tenant shall replenish the security to its original sum of Thirty Five
Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($35,000.00) Dollars five (5) days after being
notified by the Landlord in writing of the amount due. Tenant shall be in
default of this Lease if the amount due is not paid within the required time
period.

     (c)  In the event of a sale or leasing of the Real Property or any part
thereof, of which the demised premises form a part, Landlord shall have the
right to transfer the security to the vendee or lessee and Landlord shall ipso
facto be released by Tenant from all liability for the return of said security,
if it transfers said security deposit and Tenant agrees to look solely to the
new Landlord for the return of said security; and it is agreed that the
provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the
security to a new landlord.

     (d)  Tenant covenants that it shall not assign or encumber the security
deposit given to Landlord pursuant to this Lease. Neither Landlord, its
successors or assigns shall be bound by any such assignment or encumbrance or
any attempted assignment or encumbrance.

     (e)  In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all
the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, any part of the security not
used or retained by Landlord shall be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days
after the Expiration Date of the Lease and after delivery of exclusive
possession of the demised premises to Landlord.

                             NO INCOME PARTICIPATION

     SECTION 28. Neither Tenant nor any other person having an interest in the
possession, use, occupancy or utilization of the Premises shall enter into any
lease, sublease, license, concession or other agreement for use, occupancy or
utilization of the Premises which provides for rental or other payment for such
use, occupancy or utilization based in whole or in part on the net income or
profits derived by any person from the Premises or portion thereof leased, used,
occupied or utilized (other than an amount based on a fixed percentage or
percentages of receipts or sales), and that any such purported lease, sublease,
license, concession or other agreement shall be absolutely void and ineffective
as a conveyance of any right or interest in the possession, use, occupancy or
utilization of any part of the mortgaged Premises.

                            NON-RECORDATION OF LEASE

     SECTION 29. Tenant shall not record this Lease or any notice of this Lease
on the land records of any county. If it does so, Landlord may terminate this
Lease by recording a Notice of Termination of this Lease

                                      -18-

on the land records of the County in which the Memorandum of Lease is recorded,
which shall be effective with Landlord's signature solely appearing on such
Notice of Termination.

     SECTION 30. After the service of any notice or commencement of any suit, or
final judgment therein, Landlord may receive and collect any rent due, and such

1.   GENERAL.

     1.1  PURPOSE. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions governing
          the design, permitting and construction of the Tenant Work

          all actions and decisions with regard to the Tenant Work that the
          Tenant's Representative may have taken or made prior to the execution
          of this Work Agreement. Landlord shall not be obligated to respond to
          or act upon any plan, drawing, change order or approval or other
          matter relating to the Tenant Work until it has been executed by
          Tenant's Representative.

     1.3  LANDLORD'S REPRESENTATIVE. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has
          appointed Sean M. Leder as its authorized representative ("Landlord's

          perimeter walls; unfinished ceilings (without acoustical ceilings,

          which building systems shall be consistent with the specifications set
          forth in the Tenant's Plans; and primary fire sprinkler distribution
          loop connected to core (provided, however, that the secondary branch
          distribution to the Premises to accommodate Tenant's specific

          shall construct Tenant's work using the building standard materials
          referred to in Exhibit 1.

     2.2  TENANT IMPROVEMENTS; IMPROVEMENT ALLOWANCE. Landlord, at Tenant's
          expense, shall construct the Premises in accordance with the Tenant
          Plans. Tenant Plans shall be conclusive as to the entire scope of work
          to be performed by Landlord ("Tenant

                                      -26-

          Improvement"). Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with a maximum
          contribution not to exceed Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00) per usable
          square foot which is equal to a total of $387,075.00 for the Tenant
          Work ("Improvement Allowance"). However, to insure the highest quality
          of discounts available, the Landlord has allocated $5.00 of the
          Improvement Allowance for purchase of the light fixtures, air
          conditioning ducts, returns, supply ducts, fire sprinkler systems, and
          ceiling grid and tile for the whole building, therefore the net
          Improvement Allowance per usable square foot is Twenty-Dollars
          ($20.00) which is equal to a total of $309,660.00. The Improvement
          Allowance may be applied only against work, services and materials
          which are incurred in connection with Landlord's construction of the
          Tenant Work; including the costs associated with the preparation of
          the Tenant's Plans by the Landlord's Architect, and to the extent that
          any excess remains, then to the cost of cabling and telephone wiring
          and cabling in the Premises.

3.   ARCHITECT AND ENGINEERS FOR TENANT WORK. The Landlord and the Tenant agree
     that Butters Construction and Development (the "Landlord's Contractor")
     shall construct the Tenant Work for the Landlord in accordance with the
     Tenant's Plans.

4.   PLANS FOR THE TENANT WORK.

     4.1  Tenant shall promptly work with Anderson Architecture, Inc. (the
          "Landlord's Architect") to prepare a Space Plan for the Tenant Work
          (as necessary to meet the requirements of Paragraph 4.3 hereof), and
          Tenant shall approve such plans in writing and submit such plans to
          Landlord for Landlord's approval. If Landlord has any comments with
          respect to the space plans, Landlord shall make such comments known to
          Tenant in writing within five (5) business days following submission
          of the space plans to Landlord. If Landlord desires that the space
          plans be modified in any reasonable manner, then Tenant shall revise
          the plans to address Landlord's concerns within five (5) business days
          after notice thereof.

     4.2  Promptly after Landlord approves the space plans, Tenant, with
          Landlord's cooperation, shall cause the Landlord's Architect to
          prepare design development drawings for the Tenant Work (as necessary
          to meet the requirements of Paragraph 4.3 hereof), and Tenant shall
          approve such drawings in writing and submit such drawings to Landlord,
          which drawings shall be based upon the space plans approved by
          Landlord. If Landlord has any comments with respect to the design
          development drawings, Landlord shall make such comment known to Tenant
          in writing within five (5) business days following submission of the
          design development drawings to Landlord. If Landlord desires that the
          design development drawings be modified in any manner, then Tenant
          shall revise such drawing to address Landlord's concerns within five
          (5) business days after notice thereof.

     4.3  Promptly after the approval of the design development drawings,
          Tenant, with Landlord's cooperation, shall cause the Landlord's
          Architect and Landlord's Contractor to prepare final construction
          documents (including without limitation, all mechanical, electrical,
          telephone, finishes selections and fire/life safety plans and
          specifications) for the Tenant Work (the "construction documents"),
          and Tenant shall approve such construction documents in writing and
          submit such construction documents to Landlord for its approval, which
          construction documents shall be based upon the space plans and the
          design development drawings approved by Landlord and Tenant. If
          Landlord has any comment with respect to the construction documents,
          Landlord shall make such comments known to Tenant in writing within
          five (5) business days following submission of the construction
          documents to Landlord. If Landlord desires that the construction
          documents be modified in any

                                      -27-
<PAGE>   28

          reasonable manner, then Tenant shall, within five (5) business days
          after Landlord indicates the revisions required to the construction
          documents, make such revisions and resubmit the construction documents
          to Landlord for its approval. The construction documents for the
          Tenant Work that have been submitted by Tenant and approved by
          Landlord shall be referred to herein as the "Tenant Plans".

     4.4  All Tenant Plans for the Tenant Work shall be subject to Landlord's
          prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
          except that Landlord shall have complete discretion with regard to
          granting or withholding approval of Tenant Plans to the extent they
          impact the Building's structure or systems or would be visible from
          the exterior of the Building or any common area within the Building.
          Any changes, additions or modifications that Tenant desires to make to
          the Tenant Plans also shall be subject to Landlord's prior written
          approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld except as provided
          above for Building structure, system or appearance impact.
          Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall be solely responsible
          for the coordination and conformity of the Tenant Plans with base
          building design and specifications. The Tenant Plans shall be in
          compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations of any
          governmental entity having jurisdiction over the Building and the
          Premises and sufficient to enable the Tenant Plans to be filed with
          the City of Boca Raton in connection with the application for a
          Building Permit for the Tenant Work in the Premises.

     4.5  Landlord shall pay the cost of preparing the Tenant Plans as part of
          the Improvement Allowance.

     4.6  If Landlord reasonably requests any additional information or
          clarifications from Tenant regarding the Tenant Work or the Tenant
          Plans, Tenant shall provide such information or respond to such
          inquiries, as requested, within five (5) business days after such
          request.

5.   PRICING AND CONSTRUCTION.

     5.1  SELECTION OF CONTRACTOR. Tenant and Landlord agree that the general
          contractor for the Tenant Work (the "Landlord's CONTRACTOR") shall be
          Butters Construction and Development or such other general contractor
          as Landlord shall designate, without a competitive bidding process,
          but on a negotiated fixed fee basis.

     5.2  COST ESTIMATE. Within ten (10) business days after approval of the
          construction documents by Landlord, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a
          written estimates of the total cost of the Tenant Work (the "Cost
          Estimate"). The Cost Estimate shall include all amounts charged by
          Landlord's contractor for performing all work and providing all
          materials in connection with the Tenant Work (including the Landlord's
          general contractor's general conditions, overhead and profit, as well
          as permit fees). The amount, if any, by which the Cost Estimate
          exceeds the Improvement Allowance (as hereinafter defined) shall be
          referred to herein as "Excess Cost."

     5.3  ACCEPTANCE OF COST ESTIMATE. Tenant, within five (5) days after
          receipt of the Cost Estimate, shall notify Landlord as to whether
          Tenant (i) accepts such Cost Estimate and wishes Landlord to commence
          the Tenant Work in which event the Excess Cost, if any, shall be the
          total cost of Tenant Work to be charged to the Tenant absent changes
          to the Tenant Work subsequent to the receipt of the Cost Estimate; or
          (ii) wishes to redesign the Premises

                                      -28-
<PAGE>   29

          so as to reduce the Excess Cost, if any. In the event Tenant wishes to
          redesign the Premises so as to reduce the Excess Cost:

               (a)  said redesign (including revisions to the Tenant Plans)
                    shall be completed and submitted to Landlord for approval
                    within ten (10) days after Tenant's notice to Landlord that
                    it wishes to redesign the Premises so as to reduce the
                    Excess Cost;

               (b)  said redesign shall be conclusive and binding on Tenant once
                    Tenant has approved the cost thereof.

          In the event Tenant elects not to redesign the Premises or to
          partially redesign the Premises, any remaining Excess Cost shall be
          paid for in full by Tenant within five (5) business days after
          Tenant's receipt of the Cost Estimate (or within 5 business days after
          Tenant's receipt of a revised Cost Estimate, if Tenant redesigns the
          Premises). Landlord shall not be obligated to commence any work until
          such Excess Cost is paid.

     5.4  CONSTRUCTION. After approval of the construction documents and the
          Cost Estimate, Landlord shall administer the construction of the
          Tenant Work in accordance with the approved construction documents and
          any change orders approved by Tenant and Landlord. All Tenant Work
          shall be constructed by Landlord's Contractor with the exception of
          those items constructed by Tenant or Tenant's contractor or vendor
          (collectively, "Tenant's Special Equipment") which shall be limited to
          telephone equipment, computer equipment, specialized office equipment
          wiring, cabling, systems furniture, signage, audio/visual equipment
          and wiring. Landlord's prior written approval shall be required of any
          and all Tenant Special Equipment and any other equipment installed by
          Tenant or any vendor or contractor of Tenant and any equipment
          required to be installed by Landlord pursuant to the Tenant Plans.

6.   CHANGE ORDERS. If Tenant request any change or addition to the work or
     materials to be provided by Landlord pursuant to this Schedule 3 after
     Landlord's approval of the construction documents, Tenant shall submit with
     such request revised construction documents for Landlord's approval.
     Landlord shall respond to Tenant's request for consent no later than five
     (5) business days after such request is made. If Landlord approves such a
     request, Landlord shall as soon as practicable after such approval notify
     Tenant of the cost of such change order and the delay in substantial
     completion of the Tenant Work in the Premises, if any, due to the change
     order. All additional expenses attributable to any change order requested
     by Tenant and approved by Landlord resulting in an increase in Excess Cost,
     shall be payable by Tenant. Any delay in substantial completion of the
     Tenant Work in the Premises resulting from such change order shall be
     deemed a Tenant Delay.

7.   SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION.

     7.1  SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION. For purposes of the Lease (including all
          provisions of this Work Agreement) the Premises (and Tenant Work
          therein) shall conclusively be deemed to be "substantially complete"
          as soon as the Tenant Work (specifically excluding any of Tenant's
          systems furniture, other furniture and personal property and any
          Tenant Special Equipment) to be installed by Landlord pursuant to this
          Work Agreement has been constructed in

                                      -29-
<PAGE>   30

          accordance with the Tenant Plans approved by Landlord and any change
          orders approved by Landlord, as certified by Landlord's construction
          manager, subject to Landlord's completion of any punchlist items of
          work which do not materially interfere with Tenant's permitted and
          intended use of the Premises and a Certificate of Occupancy by the
          proper governmental entity has been issued. Notwithstanding the above,
          the Premises shall be considered substantially complete even though
          (a) there remain to be completed in the Premises punchlist items,
          including but not limited to minor or insubstantial details of
          construction, decoration or mechanical adjustment, the lack of
          completion of which will not materially interfere with Tenant's
          permitted and intended use of the Premises; (b) there remains to be
          completed in the Premises any of Tenant's systems furniture and other
          Tenant Special Equipment; and/or (c) there is a delay in the
          substantial completion of the Premises due to a "Tenant Delay" as
          defined in Section 3 of this Lease.

     7.2  PUNCHLIST. Prior to delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant,
          the Landlord's Architect and the Landlord's Contractor shall prepare a
          preliminary punchlist in writing for Landlord and Tenant's review and
          Landlord and Tenant shall examine the Premises and shall agree on a
          final "punchlist" which shall specify the items of work that require
          correction, repair or replacement. Tenant and Landlord shall approve
          such punchlist in writing within two (2) working days of the
          walk-through.

8.   POSSESSION BY TENANT. The Tenant agrees to notify the Landlord of any
     matters which the Tenant deems not to be in compliance with the terms of
     this Work Letter or this Lease within sixty (60) days after completion of
     the punchlist items referenced in Section 7.2 hereof; provided, however,
     the Tenant shall have one year from the date of completion of all punchlist
     items to notify the Landlord of defects relating to latent defects or items
     which are seasonal in nature (i.e. HVAC).

9.   PRIOR ACCESS. If Tenant delivers to Landlord a written request for Tenant
     and Tenant's contractors to have joint access to the Premises with Landlord
     and Landlord's contractor prior to Landlord's delivery of possession of the
     Premises to Tenant for the purpose of installing telephone, computer, other
     special equipment and furniture, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in
     writing when Tenant and Tenant's contractors can have such access if in
     Landlord's judgment (i) such joint access will not cause unreasonable
     interference with the work of Landlord's contractor; (ii) there are no
     delays created thereby in the Tenant Work construction process; and (iii)
     an acceptable schedule of work is agreed upon between Landlord's Contractor
     and Tenant's contractors. If the foregoing conditions have been met,
     Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to provide such access at least two
     (2) weeks prior to the date on which the Premises are substantially
     completed, in order to install cabling, wiring, telephone, computer and
     other special equipment and furniture. Tenant shall indemnify, hold
     harmless, and defend Landlord from any loss, damage, cost or expense
     (including attorney's fees and court costs) incurred by Landlord, whether
     before or after the Commencement Date, as a result of the performance of
     such work by Tenant or Tenant's contractor. In addition, Tenant shall not
     be permitted to enter the Premises until Landlord has approved all
     furniture, equipment and other items to be installed by Tenant or its
     contractor, as well as the plans for such installation, and Landlord and
     Tenant have agreed in writing to a schedule for all of the foregoing work
     to be completed by Tenant or its contractor in such phase of the Premises,
     such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
     Access, if any, to the Premises by Tenant in accordance with the foregoing
     and solely for the purposes set forth above shall not be deemed to advance
     the Commencement Date. The indemnification obligations set forth in the
     Lease shall commence on the effective date of the Lease (irrespective of
     when the term commences) and such obligation shall apply with respect to
     the work performed by Tenant's contractors in the Premises, as though the
     work being performed by such contractors constituted the conduct of
     business by Tenant. Tenant shall maintain all insurance coverages required
     by this Lease commencing as of the effective date of the Lease
     (irrespective of

                                      -30-

<PAGE>   31

     when the term commences) and Tenant shall provide certificates thereof to
     Landlord prior to any access to the Premises. Any delay in providing such
     certificates shall entitle Landlord to deny access to Tenant and shall
     relieve Landlord of any obligation to provide such access within the
     foregoing time periods.

more notes issued by Consulting (the" Exchange"); and

         WHEREAS, the Member, Consulting and KPMG have determined that it is in

                      ACCREDITED INVESTOR REPRESENTATIONS

         As an inducement to KPMG and Consulting to enter into this Agreement
and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby the Member hereby
represents and warrants to KPMG and Consulting and agrees as follows:

         Section 2.1. Investment Purpose. The Member is acquiring each of the
Issued Membership Units and the shares of Issued Consulting Common Stock for
investment and solely for such Member's own account and not with a view toward
reselling or distributing such Membership Units or Consulting Common Stock in
any transaction that would constitute a "distribution" within the meaning of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

         Section 2.2. Financial Capacity. The Member is financially able to
bear the economic risk of an investment in Consulting (including the loss of
the entire investment) and has no need for liquidity in this investment.

         Section 2.3. Knowledge. The Member has such knowledge, experience and
skill in financial and business matters in general and with respect to
investments of a nature similar to an investment in Consulting so as to be
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of, and making an informed business
decision with regard to, this investment. The Member acknowledges and
understands that the receipt of the Issued Equity involves an investment in a
new business that has no previous operating experience as an independent
entity, and, therefore, is a speculative investment with no assurance of
success.

         Section 2.4. Information. The Member (i) has received all information
that the Member deems necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of, and to
make an informed decision with respect to, an investment in Consulting; (ii)
has had the unrestricted opportunity to make such investigation as the Member
desires pertaining to the Contribution, Separation, and the Exchange and to
verify any information furnished to the Member; and (iii) has had the

                                     -10-
<PAGE>   12

opportunity to ask questions of representatives of KPMG and Consulting
concerning the Contribution, the Separation and the Exchange.

         Section 2.5. Holding Period. The Member understands that the Member
must bear the economic risk of an investment in Consulting for an indefinite
period of time because (i) the Issued Equity has not been registered under the
Securities Act and applicable state securities laws (collectively the "Acts")
and (ii) the Issued Equity may not be sold, transferred, pledged or otherwise
disposed of except in accordance with this Agreement and then only if it is
subsequently registered in accordance with the provisions of the Acts or
registration under the Acts is not required.

         Section 2.6. Unregistered Securities. The Member understands that: (i)
the Company is not obligated to register the Issued Equity for resale under the
Acts; (ii) Consulting, Inc., LLC and KPMG are relying upon exemptions from
registration under the Acts, based in part on the Member's representations; and
(iii) neither Consulting, Inc., LLC nor KPMG is obligated to supply the Member
with information or assistance in complying with any exemption under Acts. Upon
the request of Consulting, Inc. or LLC, the Member will provide Consulting,
Inc. or LLC, as the case may be, with an opinion of counsel satisfactory to
Consulting, Inc. or LLC, as the case may be, that any proposed Transfer of the
Issued Membership Interests or the Issued Consulting Common Stock, as the case
may be, complies with the Acts.

         Section 2.7. Due Authorization; No Conflicts. (a) This Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by the Member and constitutes the Member's
legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against the Member in
accordance with its terms. The Member is legally competent to execute this
Agreement and any other documents delivered herewith.

         (b) The execution, delivery and performance under this Agreement by
the Member will not breach the terms or provisions of any other agreement or
obligation to which the Member is bound.

         Section 2.8. Accredited Investor Status. The Member represents and
warrants that he or she either:

         (a) as of August 31, 1999 had a net worth (or joint net worth together
with his or her spouse) in excess of $1,000,000; or

         (b) had an annual income during each of the calendar years 1997 and
1998 in excess of $200,000 (or joint income together with his or her spouse in
excess of $300,000) and as of August 31, 1999 reasonably expected to have an
annual income in excess of $200,000 (or joint income together with his or her
spouse of in excess of $300,000) during the calendar year 1999.

         Section 2.9. Legend. The Member acknowledges that all Issued Equity
shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

                                     -11-

         THEY HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER SUCH SECURITIES ACT OR SUCH STATE
         SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION OR SUCH STATE
         SECURITIES LAWS IS AVAILABLE. THESE [MEMBERSHIP UNITS] [SHARES OF

         TERMS AND CONDITIONS, SET FORTH IN THE MEMBER DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT,
         A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE ISSUER AT ITS PRINCIPAL
         EXECUTIVE OFFICES.

         Section 2.10. Disclosure of Information. The Member acknowledges that
in connection with demonstrating compliance with certain provisions of the
Acts, Consulting and/or KPMG may be required or requested to disclose certain
information in the possession of KPMG regarding the Member including, but not
limited to, information contained in or relating to the Member's Form W-2 or
K-1, as the case may be, and information provided by the Member regarding the
Member's net worth. The Member authorizes Consulting and/or KPMG to disclose
any such information to the extent necessary or appropriate to comply with any
request from or in connection with any investigation by any regulatory or
governmental authority or agency, including, but not limited to, the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

                                  ARTICLE III
                          STOCK TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS

         Section 3.1. Transfer Restrictions. (a) Except in the case of an
Involuntary Transfer in accordance with Section 3.1(b) and except as otherwise
expressly permitted by this Agreement, the Member may not sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise encumber (voluntarily or
involuntarily) (any such sale, transfer, disposition, hypothecation, pledge or
encumbrance being referred to as a "Transfer") any Issued Equity.

         (b) In the event of an Involuntary Transfer of some or all of the
Member's Issued Equity at a time when such Issued Equity is subject to the
restrictions on transfer imposed by this Agreement:

         (i) the Member (or the Member's estate) shall immediately furnish to
     KPMG a Notification of such Involuntary Transfer at least 30 days prior to
     the effective date of the Involuntary Transfer (or, in the case of the
     Member's death, within 30 days after the death); and

         (ii) for a period of 20 days commencing on the date of its receipt of
     a Notification, KPMG shall have the exclusive right, but not the
     obligation, to purchase some or all of the Issued Equity that is the
     subject of the Notification. If KPMG desires to purchase any or all of
     such Issued Equity, it will provide Notification of such desire to the
     Member (or the Member's estate) within such 20 day period, and the
     purchase price

                                     -12-
<PAGE>   14

     shall equal the Repurchase Price determined as of the date of the
     Notification to the Member (or the Member's estate).

          (c) The closing of any purchase by KPMG of any Issued Equity as
provided in Section 3.1(b) shall take place on such date as designated by KPMG
occurring within 15 days after receipt by the Member (or the Member's estate)
of Notification from KPMG of the exercise of KPMG's right to purchase
hereunder. At the closing of any purchase of Issued Equity, the Member (or the
Member's estate) will transfer, assign and deliver, or cause to be transferred,
assigned and delivered to KPMG any certificates or other evidence representing
Issued Equity being purchased, duly endorsed or accompanied by transfer powers
duly executed by the Member or his or her duly appointed legal representative
or authorized agent with such signature thereon duly guaranteed. Upon the
delivery of and payment for any Issued Equity as contemplated in this
Agreement, KPMG shall receive good title to such Issued Equity free and clear
of any lien, claim, equity or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever. Upon
request by KPMG, the Member (or the Member's estate) shall deliver an opinion
of counsel, reasonably acceptable to KPMG, as to the matters contained in the
preceding sentence and as to such other matters as KPMG may reasonably request.

          (d) If, after compliance with the foregoing provisions of Section
3.1(b), KPMG fails to purchase any of the Issued Equity subject to Involuntary
Transfer, then the Involuntary Transfer of such unpurchased Issued Equity may
occur; provided, however that any such Transfer will be null and void unless
such Transfer complies in full with Section 3.4.

          (e) If any of the Issued Equity is Transferred pursuant to Section
3.1(d), the Member (or the Member's estate) shall be responsible for compliance
with all conditions of Transfer imposed by this Agreement and under applicable
law and for any expenses incurred by KPMG for legal and/or accounting services
in connection with reviewing any proposed Transfer or issuing opinions in
connection therewith.

          Section 3.2. Permitted Transfers. Subject to the restrictions set
forth in Sections 3.4 and 8.3:

          (a) On or after the Expiration Date, the Member may Transfer up to
40% of the Member's Issued Equity. Subject to Section 3.2(b), the remaining 60%
of the Member's Issued Equity shall remain subject to the restrictions set
forth in Section 3.1 and may be Transferred only in compliance with Section
3.1.

          (b) On each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the
Expiration Date, an additional 15% of the Member's Issued Equity may be
Transferred without the restrictions set forth in Section 3.1. On the fourth
anniversary of the Expiration Date, none of the Member's Issued Equity will be
subject to Section 3.1(b).

          Section 3.3. Lock-Up Provisions. The Member acknowledges that in
connection with the IPO, the Member, KPMG, Consulting, Inc. and the other
individuals holding equity interests in Consulting may be required by the
underwriters of the IPO to enter into agreements

                                     -13-
<PAGE>   15

not to sell, offer, contract to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of shares
of Consulting Common Stock, directly or indirectly, for a period of time
following the IPO ("Lock-Up Agreements"). If requested by Consulting or KPMG,
the Member hereby (i) agrees to enter into a customary Lock-Up Agreement with
respect to the Member's Issued Equity with the underwriters chosen by
Consulting in conjunction with the IPO, and (ii) authorizes the holder or
holders of the power of attorney granted pursuant to Article VII hereof to
execute such a customary Lock-Up Agreement on behalf of, and in the name of,
the Member without any further act of the Member.

          Section 3.4. General Transfer Restrictions. (a) Any purported
Transfer of Issued Equity in violation of the provisions of this Agreement or
the Acts shall be wholly void and shall not effectuate the Transfer
contemplated thereby.

          (b) In the event the Member Transfers Issued Equity other than
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, the
Member shall, upon the request of Consulting, provide Consulting with a written
opinion of counsel, reasonably acceptable to Consulting, that the Transfer is
in full compliance with this Agreement and the Acts.

          (c) Any purported Transfer pursuant to Sections 3.1 or 3.2 shall be
wholly void and shall not effectuate the Transfer contemplated thereby unless,
prior to the consummation thereof, the transferee agrees in writing in a form
reasonably acceptable to Consulting and KPMG to be bound by the restrictions
set forth in this Article III, Article IV, and Article V and makes the
representations and warranties set forth in Article II.

          (d) If at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the Effective
Date, the Member requests the removal of any restrictive legends on his or her
certificates representing Consulting Common Stock or seeks to Transfer any
Issued Equity at a time when such Issued Equity is subject to the restrictions
on Transfer imposed by this Agreement, the Member shall, prior to any removal
of legends or Transfer of Issued Equity, execute a letter, substantially in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A, pursuant to which the Member shall represent
and warrant to KPMG that, (i) for a period of six months prior to such Transfer
the Member has not engaged in any discussions or other communications with any
Restricted Firm regarding the possibility of the Member becoming formally or
informally associated with such Restricted Firm and (ii) has no current
intention to commence such discussions or other communications or become
formally or informally associated with such Restricted Firm.

          Section 3.5. Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control

Board of Consulting, Inc., the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 3.1

5.4 without complying with the provisions of this Article III.

Member. The Member agrees that the certificates shall remain in the physical
possession of a custodian, who shall be a financial institution or other Person

any of the Issued Consulting Common Stock. On or after the tenth day prior to

          Section 5.1. Independence Requirement. The Member agrees to abide by
the Auditor Independence Rules applicable to KPMG and to take any and all
action requested by the Board of Directors of KPMG in connection with such

                                      -15-
<PAGE>   17

Member agrees and understands that the breach of the covenant in the
immediately preceding sentence may impair the independence of KPMG (an

the event the Member terminates his or her association with KPMG for any reason
or no reason (including, without limitation, voluntary resignation by the
Member or separation at the request of KPMG) prior to the Restricted Period End

KPMG without any compensation therefor, without any further act on the part of

event the Member terminates his or her association with KPMG for any reason or
no reason (including, without limitation, voluntary resignation by the Member
or separation at the request of KPMG) after the Restricted Period End Date but
at a point in time when the Auditor Independence Rules continue to apply to
certain Members of KPMG including the Member, and accepts a new position which,
in the sole judgment of KPMG, causes an Independence Conflict at any time by
virtue of the Member's ownership of the Consulting Common Stock, the Member
agrees that (i) KPMG will have the option, but not the obligation, to purchase
any or all of such Consulting Common Stock at the market price on the date of
separation by the Member, and (ii) in the event that KPMG does not exercise the
option set forth in (i), the Member shall divest of such unpurchased Consulting
Common Stock as soon as practicable. In the event that KPMG exercises its
option set forth in (i), it shall observe the procedures for notice and closing
set forth in Section 3.1(b) and 3.1(c).

          Section 5.4. Auditor Independence Related Divestitures. In the event

times, in the amounts and on the terms, prices and conditions determined by the
Board of Directors of KPMG. At the request of KPMG, the Member shall take any

lack of an Independence Conflict, (i) all of the Member's Issued Equity shall
be immediately forfeited and surrendered to KPMG without any compensation
therefor, without any further act on the part of KPMG or the Member, and (ii)
all such forfeited and surrendered Issued Equity shall remain outstanding and
all of the Member's right, title and interest in the forfeited and surrendered
Member's Issued Equity shall reside solely in the name of KPMG.

                                  ARTICLE VI
                                VOTING AGREEMENT

          Section 6.1. Irrevocable Proxy. The Member hereby grants the
Chairman, with full power of substitution, revocation or delegation, a proxy to
vote any and all Issued Equity, or deliver consents with respect thereto, at
any special or annual meeting of stockholders of Consulting, or upon any action
by written consent in lieu of a meeting, in the sole discretion of such
Chairman. This proxy is irrevocable with respect to any Issued Equity until the
Revocation Date for such Issued Equity and is coupled with an interest. On the
request of the Chairman, the Member shall confirm his or her grant of this
power of attorney or any use thereof and shall execute, swear to, acknowledge
and deliver any certificate, agreement, document or other instrument related
thereto. Until the Revocation Date with respect to any Issued Equity, the
Member shall not seek to revoke or revoke the grant of proxy hereunder, take
any action inconsistent with the irrevocable proxy granted hereby, or seek to
grant or grant to any other Person any interest in the voting rights of the
Member in the Issued Equity.

          Section 6.2. Lapse. The Revocation Date with respect to any Issued
Equity shall be the date on which such Issued Equity is no longer subject to
the Transfer restrictions set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 (it being
understood and agreed that the irrevocable proxy shall remain in effect as to
any other Issued Equity still subject to such transfer restrictions after any
particular Revocation Date). Pursuant to Section 212(b) of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, the Member agrees that the proxy described in Section 6.1 may
remain in effect for a period longer than three (3) years.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                               POWER OF ATTORNEY

          Section 7.1. Power of Attorney. The Member hereby appoints the
Chairman as the Member's attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing,
swearing to, acknowledging and delivering any and all certificates, agreements,
stock transfer powers or documents and other instruments as may be necessary,
appropriate or advisable in the sole judgment of such Chairman in furtherance
of the Separation, the Contribution, the distribution of the Issued Membership
Units, the Exchange, the IPO and compliance with the Auditor Independence Rules
including, but not limited to, the agreements and instruments contemplated by
Section 3.3 and Article V. This power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled
with an interest. On the request of the Chairman, the Member shall confirm his
or her grant of this power of attorney or any use thereof by the Chairman and
shall execute, swear to, acknowledge and deliver any such certificate,

                                     -17-
<PAGE>   19

agreement, document or other instrument related thereto. The Member hereby
grants unto such attorney-in-fact full power of substitution, delegation and
revocation.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                             ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

          Section 8.1. Non-Competition. The Member acknowledges, understands
and agrees that the extraordinary transactions contemplated by the Separation,
the related conversion of the Member's indirect ownership interest in the
Consulting Business to a direct ownership of the common stock of Consulting,
Inc., the Private Placement and the associated alliance (the "Cisco Alliance")
of Consulting with Cisco Systems, Inc. ("Cisco") present KPMG and its Members
with a unique and unprecedented opportunity to receive significant financial
benefits and value that will materially and substantially benefit KPMG, the
undersigned Member, and other Members of KPMG, which benefits and value include
the granting to the Member of a direct equity interest in Consulting, the
extinguishing of significant KPMG unfunded pension liabilities which have
diminished KPMG's and the Members' financial results, the modification of
KPMG's compensation structure, and an enhancement of KPMG's overall competitive
position. The Member further acknowledges, understands and agrees that the
Member and KPMG stand to earn further substantial and material value in
conjunction with the anticipated IPO, and that the Member potentially will be
eligible to receive such benefits and value from the Separation, the Cisco
investment and alliance and the IPO even after the Member's association with
KPMG ends. The Member also acknowledges, understands and agrees that the full
realization of these enhanced benefits and value critically depends on
continued cooperation and mutual reliance among the undersigned Member and the
other Members of KPMG in pursuit of KPMG's business objectives following the
Separation, the Cisco investment and alliance and the IPO, including after the
end of the Member's association with KPMG. Accordingly, the undersigned Member
acknowledges, understands and agrees that the undersigned Member bears an
enhanced duty of the utmost loyalty to KPMG and to the other Members who stand
to receive benefits and value from the Separation, the Cisco investment and
alliance and the anticipated IPO (each of whom is assuming an identical duty
that will inure to the undersigned Member's benefit), which duty includes a
responsibility to act only in furtherance of, and not contrary to, KPMG's
competitive objectives upon which the Separation, the Cisco investment and
alliance and the anticipated IPO are premised. In furtherance of these
objectives and this enhanced duty, the Member also agrees to undertake the
obligations in this Article VIII, which the Member acknowledges are reasonably
designed to protect the legitimate business interests of KPMG and the benefits,
value and opportunity accruing to KPMG, the undersigned Member, and KPMG's
other Members as a result of the Separation, the Cisco investment and alliance
and the anticipated IPO, without unreasonably or unnecessarily restricting the
Member's remunerative opportunities should the Member leave KPMG:

          (a) Except in furtherance of the Member's services for KPMG, the
Member shall not, during the Member's association with KPMG and thereafter
until the later of (i) five (5) years after the effective date of the
Separation or (ii) one (1) year after the date on which the Member separates
from KPMG for any or no reason (including, without limitation, voluntary
separation by the Member or separation at the request of KPMG), directly or
indirectly become

                                     -18-
<PAGE>   20

employed or retained to perform services involving Public Accounting by, or
perform services in any other capacity (whether as a sole proprietor, owner,
employer, partner, investor, joint venturer, shareholder, associate, employee,
member, consultant, or otherwise) involving Public Accounting for or on behalf
of, any of the entities set forth in Schedule 8.1 to this Agreement or any of
the affiliates, related entities, successors or assigns of any of them
(collectively, "Restricted Firms"), anywhere in the world where the Restricted
Firms do business at the time the Member seeks to perform services involving
Public Accounting; provided, however, that, in the event that the equity of any
of the Restricted Firms becomes publicly traded, the Member's ownership as a
passive investor of less than 1% of the outstanding publicly traded capital
stock of a Restricted Firm shall not be deemed a violation of this paragraph
(a).

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Member
separates from KPMG for any or no reason and does not engage in or perform
services of any kind involving Public Accounting (whether individually, for or
in association with any of the Restricted Firms, or for or in association with
any other individual, person, firm or other entity) during the one (1) year
period following the date of the Member's separation from KPMG, and the Member
represents and warrants to the satisfaction of KPMG in a writing directed to
KPMG's General Counsel at the conclusion of such one (1) year period that the
Member has not engaged in or performed any such services in any such capacity,
KPMG shall, after receipt and review of such representation and warranty to
determine its sufficiency, release the Member in writing from any continuing
obligations, if any, that the Member may have under Section 8.1(a).

          Section 8.2. Application. In applying this Article VIII, the wishes
or preferences of a KPMG client or other individual, person, firm or other
entity as to who shall perform its Public Accounting services, or the fact that
such client or other individual, person, firm or other entity may also be a
client of a third party with whom the Member is or becomes associated, shall
neither be relevant nor admissible as evidence in any dispute arising under
this Article VIII.

          Section 8.3. Remedy for Breach. In addition to and without in any way
limiting any remedies at law or in equity that may be available to KPMG for any
breach of this Agreement or any breach of the Partnership Agreement or the
By-laws (including, without limitation, any remedies under Section 10.11 of
this Agreement), and without in any way precluding or being construed to
preclude KPMG from making a showing of irreparable injury or any other element
that may be necessary to secure injunctive relief, the Member agrees to
undertake the following obligations and accept the following consequences in
the event that the Member breaches Section 8.1:

          (a) In the event that, during the five (5) year period following the
Effective Date, the Member breaches Section 8.1:

          (i) the Member shall pay KPMG an amount in cash equal to fifty
     percent (50%) of the average Annual Compensation paid or payable to the
     Member by KPMG during the two (2) completed fiscal years immediately
     preceding the fiscal year in which the Member's breach occurs, provided
     that a Member who has been associated with KPMG for less than two (2) full
     fiscal years preceding the fiscal year in which such

                                 -19-
<PAGE>   21

     Member's breach occurs shall pay KPMG an amount equal to fifty percent
     (50%) of the Annual Compensation paid or payable to the Member by KPMG for
     the completed fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which
     such Member's breach occurs.

          (ii) In addition to the obligations imposed by Section 8.3(a)(i)
     above, the restrictions on transfer applicable to any and all shares of
     Issued Consulting Common Stock that have not yet expired as of the time of
     the Member's breach of Section 8.1 shall be automatically extended to and
     shall expire at the end of the ten (10) year period following the
     effective date of the Separation.

          (b) Any and all such payments shall be made ratably in quarterly
installments over the twenty-four (24) month period following such breach. The
Member acknowledges, understands and agrees that KPMG will suffer damages as a
result of the Member's breach of Section 8.1 that are difficult to calculate
and that the payment required by this Section 8.3 is a reasonable forecast of
the damages likely to result from such breach. In particular, the Member
acknowledges, understands and agrees that the Member's Annual Compensation is
based upon the Member's value to KPMG, that the Annual Compensation reflects,
among other things, the Member's efforts at developing and maintaining client
relationships and the Member's success in participation in the management of
KPMG's affairs, and that the payment obligation set forth above reasonably
approximates the value that KPMG will lose in the event that the Member
breaches Section 8.1 and also reasonably compensates KPMG for the damages that
it will suffer as a result of the Member's breach of the duty of loyalty
pursuant to Section 8.1.

          (c) The Member acknowledges, understands and agrees that the payment
obligations and other provisions set forth in Section 8.3 above are not, and
are not intended to be, a penalty of any kind.

          (d) The Member agrees to reimburse KPMG upon demand for any and all
costs, expenses and other amounts (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees and court costs) incurred by KPMG in enforcing any of its rights under
this Agreement (except to the extent inconsistent with the enforcement of
Article IX).

          Section 8.4. Waiver. (a) The Chairman may, in his sole discretion,
waive any provisions of Sections 8.1 through 8.3.

         (b) Notwithstanding Section 8.4(a), no provision herein shall or shall
be construed to restrict, limit or otherwise affect any rights that Consulting
or KPMG or their Affiliates may have or any obligations that the Member may
have under any provisions of the KPMG Partnership Agreement, the By-Laws of
KPMG or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of the
KPMG Partnership Agreement and the By-Laws of KPMG (as in effect or amended
from time to time) shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with
their terms.

                                      -20-
<PAGE>   22

         Section 8.5. No Employment Agreement. The Member understands that this
Agreement is not intended to and shall not be construed to constitute an
express or implicit employment contract for any purpose, including for a
specific duration of time.

         Section 8.6. Cooperation. The Member agrees to provide all assistance
requested by KPMG, whether before, upon, or after the Member's separation from
KPMG for any or no reason (including, without limitation, voluntary separation
by the Member or separation at the request of KPMG), in transitioning the
Member's duties, responsibilities and client and other KPMG relationships in
connection with any such separation of the Member from KPMG.

                                  ARTICLE IX
                                  ARBITRATION

         Section 9.1. Arbitration. (a) To the extent permitted by law, all
claims or disputes arising out of or relating to the construction, meaning or
effect of any provision of this Agreement, to the Member's association with
KPMG, or to the termination of this Agreement or cessation of such association:

         (i) that the Member may have against or with KPMG, any of its
     Affiliates, partnerships, other related entities, successors, or permitted
     assigns, or any director, officer, trustee, fiduciary, administrator,
     employee, owner, shareholder, partner, principal, member, agent, attorney
     or representative of any of the foregoing entities; or

         (ii) that KPMG may have against or with the Member (collectively,
     "Disputes"), shall be submitted for resolution by arbitration in
     accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 9.1. All
     arbitrations hereunder shall be held either in the State and City of New
     York or in Wilmington, Delaware.

         (iii) Arbitrations shall take place before a panel of three
     arbitrators (the "Arbitration Panel"), which shall consist of one person
     selected by each of the two sides to the Dispute and the third person to
     be jointly selected by the two arbitrators previously selected.

          (b) The Arbitration Panel shall have no authority to amend or modify
the terms of this Agreement (except pursuant to Section 10.5) or to award
punitive or exemplary damages.

          (c) Judgment on any award rendered pursuant to this Section 9.1 may
be entered in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County or in
any other court having jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court
for a judicial recognition of the award or an order of enforcement thereof, as
the case may be.

          (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.1 to the contrary,
KPMG may seek provisional relief, including, but not limited to, temporary
restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, from a court of competent
jurisdiction in aid of the arbitration, to prevent any award from being
rendered ineffectual, to protect KPMG's Proprietary Information

                                     -21-
<PAGE>   23

or for any other purpose in the interests of KPMG. Seeking any such relief
shall not be deemed a waiver of KPMG's right to compel arbitration. The Supreme
Court of the State of New York, New York County, as well as any other court of
competent jurisdiction, shall have jurisdiction over any proceeding relating to
arbitrations under this Section 9.1.

                                   ARTICLE X
                                 MISCELLANEOUS

          Section 10.1. Survival. The provisions of this Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, notwithstanding any
termination of the Member's association with KPMG for any or no reason or any
dissolution or liquidation of LLC.

          Section 10.2. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Schedules and
Exhibits hereto constitute the only agreements between the Parties with respect
to the subject matter hereof, there being no prior written or oral promises or
representations not incorporated herein or therein.

          Section 10.3. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and
the federal laws of the United States of America applicable therein, as though
all acts and omissions related hereto occurred in New York. Any lawsuit arising
from or related to this Agreement may be brought, to the extent any such
lawsuit is permitted pursuant to Article IX, in any state court in the City of
New York in the State of New York and in the United States District Courts
located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York. To the extent
permissible by law, the Parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction and venue of
such courts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, nothing
in this Section 10.3 shall prevent any Party or any of such Party's Affiliates
from bringing a lawsuit, to the extent any such lawsuit is permitted pursuant
to Article IX, in any other federal or state court of full and competent
jurisdiction. Each Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to assert, and
agrees to cause its Affiliates to waive, release and not assert, any rights
such Party or its Affiliates may have under any foreign law or regulation that
would be inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement as governed by New York
law.

          Section 10.4. Amendment; Waiver. No amendment or modification of the
terms of this Agreement shall be binding on any Party unless reduced to writing
and signed by an authorized representative of the Party to be bound. The waiver
by any Party of any particular default by any other Party shall not affect or
impair the rights of the Party so waiving with respect to any subsequent
default of the same or a different kind; nor shall any delay or omission by any
Party to exercise any right arising from any default by any other Party affect
or impair any rights which the nondefaulting Party may have with respect to the
same or any future default.

          Section 10.5. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement
including, without limitation, any provision of Article VIII, is held invalid
or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity shall not affect the validity
of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and the

                                     -22-
<PAGE>   24

parties shall substitute for the invalid provision a valid provision which most
closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid provision.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any provision of this
Agreement shall be determined, under applicable law, to be overly broad in
duration, geographical coverage or substantive scope, or otherwise unreasonable
or unenforceable such provision shall be deemed narrowed to the broadest term
permitted by applicable law and shall be enforced as so narrowed.

          Section 10.6. Counterparts; Signatures. (a) For convenience of the
parties, this Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original for all purposes.

          (b) Each Party hereto acknowledges that it and each other Party
hereto may execute this Agreement, and any other agreement, certificate or
document contemplated herein or therein or related hereto by facsimile, stamp
or mechanical signature. Each Party hereto expressly adopts and confirms each
such facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature made in its respective name as if
it were a manual signature, agrees that it will not assert that any such
signature is not adequate to bind such Party to the same extent as if it were
signed manually and agrees that at the reasonable request of any other Party
hereto at any time it will as promptly as reasonably practicable cause this
Agreement, and any other agreement, certificate or document contemplated herein
or therein or related hereto to be manually executed (any such execution to be
as of the date of the initial date thereof).

          Section 10.7. Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely for the benefit
of the Parties and their respective Affiliates, successors and permitted
assigns and shall not confer upon any other Person any remedy, claim,
liability, reimbursement or other right in addition to those existing without
reference to this Agreement.

          Section 10.8. Notices. All notices which any Party may be required or
desire to give to another Party shall be in writing and shall be given by
personal service, telecopy, registered mail or certified mail (or its
equivalent), or overnight courier to the other parties at their respective
address or telecopy telephone number set forth below. Mailed notices and
notices by overnight courier shall be deemed to be given upon actual receipt by
the Party to be notified. Notices delivered by telecopy shall also be confirmed
in writing by the sending Party by overnight courier and shall be deemed to be
given upon actual receipt of the overnight courier package by the Parties to be
notified.
