replacement of the shares referenced in (i) above, and (iii) for purposes of
Section 1.3 (and other portions of this Section 1, to the extent they relate to
rights or registration under Section 1.3) the term "Registrable Securities"
shall also include shares of Common Stock of the Company (other than shares
described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection 1.1(f)) eligible for
registration pursuant to subsection 1.3(b).  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
"Registrable Securities" shall exclude any Registrable Securities to the extent
(A) sold by a person in a transaction in which his rights under this Section 1
are not assigned, or (B) the registration rights with respect to such
Registrable Securities have been terminated pursuant to Section 1.16.

               (g) The number of shares of "Registrable Securities then
outstanding" shall be determined by the number of shares of Common Stock

to then exercisable or convertible securities that are, Registrable Securities.

               (i) The term "Affiliate" shall refer to any person or entity

          1.2  Request for Registration
               ------------------------

               (a)  If the Company shall receive at any time after the earlier
of (i) December 31, 2002, or (ii) six (6) months after the effective date of the
first registration statement for a public offering of securities of the Company
(other than a registration statement relating either to the sale of securities
to employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or
similar plan or a SEC Rule 145 transaction), a written request, from (i) the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding in the case
of the first such

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

written request and (ii) the Holders of at least forty percent (40%) of the
Registrable Securities then outstanding in the case of the second such request,
that the Company file a registration statement under the Act covering the
registration of Registrable Securities then outstanding having an aggregate
offering price, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, of at least
$7,500,000, then the Company shall:

                    (A)  within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof, give
written notice of such request to all Holders; and

                    (B)  effect as soon as practicable, and in any event within
sixty (60) days of the receipt of such request, the registration under the Act
of all Registrable Securities that the Holders request to be registered, subject
to the limitations of subsection 1.2(b), within twenty (20) days of the mailing
of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section 3.5.

                         (1)  If the Holders initiating the registration request
hereunder ("Initiating Holders") intend to distribute the Registrable Securities
covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the
Company as a part of their request made pursuant to subsection 1.2(a) and the
Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in
subsection 1.2(a). The underwriter will be selected by the majority in interest
of the Initiating Holders. In such event, the right of any Holder to include his
Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such
Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's
Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by
a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent
provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through
such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in subsection
1.4(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the
underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Section 1.2, if the underwriter advises the Initiating
Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of
shares to be underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all
Holders of Registrable Securities that would otherwise be underwritten pursuant
hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included
in the underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders (electing to include
shares in the offering) thereof, including the Initiating Holders, in proportion
(as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities of the
Company owned by each Holder; provided, however, that the number of shares of
Registrable Securities to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced
unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting.

                         (2)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company
shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this
Section 1.2, a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that
in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be
seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration
statement to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such
registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer taking action
with

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

respect to such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after
receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the
Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month
period.

                         (3)  The Company is obligated to effect only two (2)
such registrations pursuant to this Section 1.2.

          1.3  Company Registration
               --------------------

               (a)  If (but without any obligation to do so) the Company
proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the
Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its stock or other
securities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such
securities solely for cash (other than a registration relating solely to the
sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan or a registration on
any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be
required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the
Registrable Securities), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each
Holder written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each
Holder given within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company
in accordance with Section 3.5, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of
Section 1.8, include in the registration statement all of the Registrable
Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered.

               (b)  Each Founder shall be deemed a Holder for purposes of
Section 1.3(a) and shall be entitled to include Common Stock held by such
Founder in any registration described in Section 1.3(a) so long as such Founder
(A) continues to serve as an officer or director of the Company on the date the
registration statement is filed by the Company and (B) agrees to be bound by all
other provisions of this Agreement and to participate in any such registration
on the same basis as each other Holder in accordance with all applicable
provisions of this Agreement.

          1.4  Obligations of the Company.  Whenever required under this Section
               --------------------------
1 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall,
as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

               (a)  Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders
of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such
registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120)
days or until the Holders have completed the distribution described in the
registration statement relating thereto, whichever first occurs.

               (b)  Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the
provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered
by such registration statement.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

               (c)  Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request
in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.

               (d)  Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or "Blue Sky"
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders;
provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to
service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.

               (e)  In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into
and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder
participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its
obligations under such an agreement.

               (f)  Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result
of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in
effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.

               (g)  Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant
hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange or nationally recognized
quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then
listed.

          1.5  Furnish Information
               -------------------

               (a)  It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 1 with respect to the
Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to
the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held
by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be
required to effect the registration of such Holder's Registrable Securities.

               (b)  The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any
registration requested pursuant to Section 1.2 or Section 1.12 if, due to the
operation of subsection 1.5(a), the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the
registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company's obligation
to initiate such registration as specified in subsection 1.2(a) or subsection
1.12(b)(ii), whichever is applicable.

          1.6  Expenses of Demand Registration.  All expenses other than
               -------------------------------
underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with
registrations, filings or qualifications

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

pursuant to Section 1.2, including (without limitation) all registration, filing
and qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel
(not to exceed $10,000) for the selling Holders shall be borne by the Company;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any
expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 1.2 if the
registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of
a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all
participating Holders shall bear such expenses), unless the Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one
demand registration pursuant to Section 1.2; provided further, however, that if
at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a material adverse
change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that known
to the Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the request with
reasonable promptness following disclosure by the Company of such material
adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such
expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 1.2.

          1.7  Expenses of Company Registration.  The Company shall bear and pay
               --------------------------------
all expenses incurred in connection with any registration, filing or
qualification of Registrable Securities with respect to the registrations
pursuant to Section 1.3 for each Holder (which right may be assigned as provided
in Section 1.13), including (without limitation) all registration, filing, and
qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees relating or apportionable
thereto and the fees and disbursements of counsel for this purpose; the Company
will pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel (not to exceed
$10,000), for the selling Holders selected by them but excluding underwriting
discounts and commissions relating to Registrable Securities.

          1.8  Underwriting Requirements.  In connection with any offering
               -------------------------
involving an underwriting of shares of the Company's capital stock, the Company
shall not be required under Section 1.3 to include any of the Holders'
securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting
as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it, and then
only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion
will not adversely affect their ability to market the offering.  If the total
amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by
stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities
sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole
discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company
shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such
securities, including Registrable Securities, that the underwriters determine in
their sole discretion will not adversely affect their ability to market the
offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the
selling stockholders according to the total amount of securities owned by each
selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to
by such selling stockholders) but in no event shall (a) the amount of securities
of the selling Holders included in the offering be reduced below thirty percent
(30%) of the total amount of securities included in such offering, unless such
offering is the initial public offering of the Company's securities in which
case the selling stockholders may be reduced to a lesser percentage if the
underwriters make the determination described above and no other stockholder's
securities are included or (b) notwithstanding clause (a) above, any shares
being sold by a stockholder exercising a demand registration right

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

similar to that granted in Section 1.2 be excluded from such offering. For
purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any
selling stockholder that is a holder of Registrable Securities and which is a
partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and stockholders of
such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired
partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be
deemed to be a single "selling stockholder", and any pro-rata reduction with
respect to such "selling stockholder" shall be based upon the aggregate amount
of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals
included in such "selling stockholder", as defined in this sentence.

          1.9   Delay of Registration.  No Holder shall have any right to obtain
                ---------------------
or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as
the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the
interpretation or implementation of this Section 1.

          1.10  Indemnification.  In the event any Registrable Securities are
                ---------------
included in a registration statement under this Section 1:

                (a)  To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify
and hold harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Act) for such
Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within
the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or
liabilities (joint or several), as incurred, to which they may become subject
under the Act, or the 1934 Act or other federal or state securities law, insofar
as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or
violations (collectively a "Violation"): (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement,
including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or
any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company of the Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities law or
any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, or the 1934 Act or any state
securities law; and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter or
controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this subsection 1.10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case
for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it
arises out of or is based upon a Violation that occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection
with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person.

               (b)  To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its
officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

meaning of the Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such
registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or
other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or
several), as incurred, to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject,
under the Act, the 1934 Act or other federal or state securities law, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto)
arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and
only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use
in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay, as
incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended
to be indemnified pursuant to this subsection 1.10(b), in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection
1.10(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent
of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that,
in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection 1.10(b) exceed the net
proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.

               (c)  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 1.10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 1.10, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party
(together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without
conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, in
addition to one local counsel for all the indemnified parties, with the fees and
expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such
indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such
indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such
proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if materially
prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section
1.10, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 1.10.

               (d)  If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.10 is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to
therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in
connection with the statements or

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the
indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission, provided, however, that, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, in no event shall any indemnifying party be
required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of the net proceeds from
the offering received by such indemnifying party.

               (e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section
1.10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a
registration statement under this Section 1, and otherwise.

               (f)  No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written
consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry
of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or
proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any
claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be
sought under this Section 1.10 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties
are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or
consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all
liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and
(ii) does not include a statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or a
failure to act by and on behalf of any indemnified party.

          1.11 Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  With a view to
               ---------------------------------------------
making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a
Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or
pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to:

               (a)  make and keep public information available, as those terms
are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after the effective
date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for the offering
of its securities to the general public;

               (b)  take such action, including the voluntary registration of
its Common Stock under Section 12 of the 1934 Act, as is necessary to enable the
Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities, such
action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year in
which the first registration statement filed by the Company for the offering of
its securities to the general public is declared effective;

               (c)  file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Act and the 1934 Act; and

               (d)  furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any
Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied

                                     -10-
<PAGE>

with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90)
days after the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the
Company), the Act and the 1934 Act (at any time after it has become subject to
such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose
securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after it so
qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii)
such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of
any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such
securities without registration or pursuant to such form.

          1.12 Form S-3 Registration.  In case the Company shall receive from
               ---------------------
any Holder or Holders a written request or requests that the Company effect a
registration on Form S-3 and any related qualification or compliance with
respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or
Holders, the Company will:

               (a)  promptly give written notice of the proposed registration,
and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and

               (b)  as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all
such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit
or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder's
or Holders' Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together
with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or
Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given
within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such
registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 1.12: (i) if
Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii) if the Holders,
together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to
inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such
other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public (net of any
underwriters' discounts or commissions) of less than $4,000,000; (iii) if the
Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of
the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of
the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its
stockholders for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in
which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3
registration statement for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of
the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 1.12; provided, however,
that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12)
month period; (iv) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period
preceding the date of such request, already effected (A) one (1) registration on
Form S-3 for the requesting Holder or Holders or (B) two (2) registrations on
Form S-3 pursuant to this Section 1.12; (v) if the Company has already effected
four (4) registrations on Form S-3 pursuant to this Section 1.12; or (vi) in any
particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do
business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such
registration, qualification or compliance.

                                     -11-
<PAGE>

               (c)  Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities
so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the
request or requests of the Holders. All expenses incurred in connection with a
registration requested pursuant to Section 1.12, including (without limitation)
all registration, filing, qualification, printer's and accounting fees and the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (not to exceed $10,000) for the
selling Holder or Holders and counsel for the Company, but excluding any
underwriters' discounts or commissions associated with Registrable Securities,
shall be borne by the Company. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section
1.12 shall not be counted as demands for registration or registrations effected
pursuant to Sections 1.2 or 1.3, respectively.

          1.13 Assignment of Registration Rights.  The rights to cause the
               ---------------------------------
Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1 may be
assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or
assignee of such securities who acquires all of the Registrable Securities
previously held by such Holder, or who, after such assignment or transfer, holds
at least 100,000 shares of Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate
adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and other
recapitalizations), provided: the Company is, within a reasonable time after
such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such
transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such
registration rights are being assigned; and provided, further, that such
assignment shall be effective only if immediately following such transfer the
further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is
restricted under the Act.  For the purposes of determining the number of shares
of Registrable Securities held by a transferee or assignee, the holdings of
transferees and assignees of a partnership or a trust who are Affiliates,
partners or retired partners of such partnership (including spouses and
ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or spouses who
acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession), or an
affiliate or successor trust or trustee of such trust, shall be aggregated
together and with the partnership; provided that all assignees and transferees
who would not qualify individually for assignment of registration rights shall
have a single attorney-in-fact for the purpose of exercising any rights,
receiving notices or taking any action under this Section 1.

          1.14 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights.  From and after
               ---------------------------------------------
the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written
consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then
outstanding, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of
any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder
(a) to include such securities in any registration filed under Section 1.2
hereof, unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective
holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent
that the inclusion of his securities will not reduce the amount of the
Registrable Securities of the Holders that is included or (b) to make a demand
registration which could result in such registration statement being declared
effective prior to the earlier of either of the dates set forth in subsection
1.2(a) or within one hundred twenty (120) days of the effective date of any
registration effected pursuant to Section 1.2.

          1.15 "Market Stand-Off" Agreement.  Each Investor hereby agrees that,
               ----------------------------
during the period of duration (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days)
specified by the Company and an underwriter of Common Stock or other securities
of the Company, following the effective date of a registration statement filed
under the Act for the initial public offering of the Company's Common Stock, it
shall not, to the extent requested by the Company and such underwriter, directly
or indirectly, sell, offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without
limitation, any short sale), grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer
or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any
securities of the Company held by it at any time during such period except
Common Stock included in such registration; provided, however, that the
restrictions imposed by this subsection 1.15 shall not apply to Common Stock
purchased by an Investor in the initial public offering of the Company's Common
Stock or acquired by an Investor by purchases in the public market following
such initial public offering; and provided further, that all officers and
directors of the Company and all other persons with registration rights (whether
or not pursuant to this Agreement) enter into similar agreements.  In order to
enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to the securities of the Company (except Common Stock
included in such registration) held at any time during such period by each
Investor (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the
foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.

          1.16 Termination of Registration Rights
               ----------------------------------

               No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in
this Section 1 after the earlier of (a) three (3) years following the
consummation of the sale of securities pursuant to a registration statement
filed by the Company under the Act in connection with the initial firm
commitment underwritten offering of its securities to the general public, the
public offering price of which was not less than $10.00 per share (adjusted to
reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations), and
$40,000,000 in the aggregate, or (b) as to any Holder, such time at which all
Registrable Securities held by such Holder can be sold in any three month period
without registration in compliance with Rule 144 of the Act.

          2.3  Termination of Information and Inspection Covenants.  The
               ---------------------------------------------------
covenants set forth in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 shall terminate as to
Investors and be of no further force or effect (a) when the sale of securities
pursuant to a registration statement filed by the Company under the Act in
connection with the firm commitment underwritten offering of its securities to
the general public is consummated, the public offering price of which was not
less than $10.00 per share (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends,

the Company first becomes subject to the periodic reporting requirements of
Sections 12(g) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, whichever event shall first occur.

          2.4  Right of First Offer.  Subject to the terms and conditions
               --------------------
specified in this Section 2.4, the Company hereby grants to each Investor a
right of first offer to purchase its pro rata share (in whole or in part) with
respect to future sales by the Company of its Shares (as hereinafter defined).
An Investor shall be entitled to assign or apportion the right of first offer
hereby granted it among itself and its partners and affiliates (including in the
case of a venture capital fund among other venture capital funds affiliated with
such fund) in such proportions as it deems appropriate.  For purposes of this
Section 2.4, an Investor's pro rata share of Shares shall mean that number of
Shares that equals the proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock
issued and held by each Investor (assuming full conversion, exercise and/or
exchange of all convertible, exercisable and exchangeable securities) bears to
the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the issuance of Shares (assuming full conversion, exercise and/or
exchange of all convertible, exercisable and exchangeable securities).
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the aggregate number of
Shares which the Investors elect to purchase pursuant to this Section 2.4
exceeds sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Shares to be offered
by the Company, the number of Shares to be purchased by each Investor shall be
reduced proportionately so that the aggregate number of Shares to be purchased
by the Investors is no more than sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of
the Shares to be issued.

               Each time the Company proposes to offer any shares of, or
securities convertible into or exercisable for any shares of, any class of its
capital stock ("Shares"), the Company shall first make an offering of such
Shares to each Investor in accordance with the following provisions:

               (a)  The Company shall deliver a notice by certified mail
("Notice") to the Investors stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer such
Shares, (ii) the number of such Shares to be offered, and (iii) the price and
terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such Shares.

               (b)  By written notification received by the Company within
twenty (20) calendar days after receipt of the Notice, each Investor may elect
to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Notice, up
to its pro rata share of such Shares.

               (c)  If all Shares that Investors are entitled to obtain pursuant
to subsection 2.4(b) are not elected to be obtained as provided in subsection
2.4(b) hereof, the

                                     -15-
<PAGE>

Company may, during the 30-day period following the expiration of the period
provided in subsection 2.4(b) hereof, offer the remaining unsubscribed portion
of such Shares to any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms
no more favorable to the offeree than those specified in the Notice. If the
Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the Shares within such
period, or if such agreement is not consummated within 30 days of the execution
thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such
Shares shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Investors in
accordance herewith.

               (d)  The right of first offer in this Section 2.4 shall not be
applicable (i) to the issuance or sale of no more than 7,100,000 shares of
Common Stock (or options therefor, including the number of options outstanding
as of the date of this Agreement) to employees, consultants or directors for the
primary purpose of soliciting or retaining their services, (ii) to or after
consummation of a bona fide, firmly underwritten public offering of shares of
Common Stock, registered under the Act pursuant to a registration statement on
Form S-1, at an offering price of at least $10.00 per share (appropriately
adjusted for any stock split, dividend, combination or other recapitalization)
and $40,000,000 in the aggregate, (iii) the issuance of securities pursuant to
the conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities, (iv) the
issuance of securities in connection with a bona fide business acquisition of or
by the Company, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets, sale or
exchange of stock or otherwise, (v) the issuance of securities in connection
with a transaction the primary purpose of which is to acquire technology, (vi)
the issuance of securities to vendors, suppliers, equipment lessors or bank
lenders where such issuance is not principally for the purpose of raising
additional equity capital; or (vii) the issuance of securities to corporate
partners or in connection with other strategic alliances approved by the Board
of Directors of the Company.

          2.5  Board of Directors
               ------------------

               (a)  With respect to those three (3) directors that the Company's
Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provided were to be
elected by holders of Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D and Series E
Preferred Stock, those Investors that executed the Fourth Restated Investors'
Rights Agreement agreed to vote all of their shares of Series A, Series B,
Series C, Series D and Series E Preferred Stock in favor of the election of one
designee of each of Venrock Associates ("Venrock"), Sevin Rosen Fund IV, L.P.
("Sevin Rosen"), and Oak Investment Partners VI, L.P. ("Oak"). Notwithstanding
the foregoing if pursuant to Article IV, Section (B), Paragraph 5(b) of the
Company's Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (which
Paragraph is entitled "Voting for the Election of Directors"), as such provision
may be amended from time to time, the number of directors to be elected by the
holders of Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D and Series E Preferred Stock
shall be decreased from three (3) directors to either two (2) directors or one
(1) director, then among Venrock, Sevin Rosen and Oak, those two (2)
stockholders (in the case where the Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D and
Series E Preferred Stock elects two (2) directors) or the one (1) stockholder
(in the case where the Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D and Series E
Preferred Stock elects one (1) director) holding the most shares of Series A,
Series B, Series C, Series D and Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
designate the director(s) pursuant to this subsection (a).

                                     -16-
<PAGE>

               (b)  So long as each of (i) Integral Capital Partners III, L.P.
("Integral"), (ii) Bowman Capital or its related entities ("Bowman"), (iii)
Worldview Technology Partners ("Worldview"), (iv) The Chase Manhattan Bank,
solely as Trustee for First Plaza Group Trust (as directed by General Motors
Investment Management Corporation) and not in its individual capacity ("First
Plaza") or (v) Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. or any of its Affiliates (each a
"Merrill Lynch Entity"), including Merrill Lynch KECALP L.P. 1997, Merrill Lynch
KECALP International L.P. 1997, Merrill Lynch KECALP L.P. 1999, Merrill Lynch
KECALP International L.P. 1999, KECALP Inc. and ML IBK Positions Inc., holds at
least  50% of the total number of shares of preferred stock held by such entity
as of the date hereof (or Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof and as
adjusted for subsequent stock splits, recombinations or reclassifications), the
Company shall invite one (1) designated representative of each of Integral,
Bowman, Worldview, First Plaza and the Merrill Lynch Entity to attend all
meetings of its Board of Directors in a nonvoting observer capacity.  The
Company shall give such designated representatives copies of all notices,
minutes, consents, and other materials that it provides to its directors at the
same time as such materials are provided to the directors; provided, however,
that such representatives shall agree to hold in confidence and trust and to act
in a fiduciary manner with respect to all information so provided; and, provided
further, that the Company reserves the right to withhold any information and to
exclude such representatives from any meeting or portion thereof if the Company
believes, upon advise of counsel, that such exclusion is reasonably necessary to
preserve the attorney-client privilege, to protect highly confidential
information, or for other similar reasons.  The covenants and rights set forth
in this Section 2.5 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon
the closing of the Company's initial firm commitment underwritten offering of
its securities to the general public, the public offering price of which was not
less than $10.00 per share (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends,
stock splits or recapitalizations), and $40,000,000 in the aggregate.

from Landlord, Tenant shall pay Landlord one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant's
Proportionate Share of this estimate, multiplied by the number of months that
have elapsed in the applicable fiscal year to the date of such payment including
the current month, minus payments previously made by Tenant for the months
elapsed.  On the first day of each month thereafter, Tenant shall pay Landlord
one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant's Proportionate Share of this estimate, until a
new estimate becomes applicable.

          (2)  Correction of Operating Cost Share Rent.  Landlord shall deliver
               ---------------------------------------
to Tenant a report for the previous fiscal year (the "Operating Cost Report") by
                                                      ---------------------
April 1 of each year, or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, setting
forth (a) the actual Operating Costs incurred, (b) the amount of Operating Cost
Share Rent due from Tenant, and (c) the amount of Operating Cost Share Rent paid
by Tenant.  Within twenty (20) days after such delivery, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the amount due minus the amount paid.  If the amount paid exceeds the
amount due, Landlord shall apply the excess to Tenant's payments of Operating
Cost Share Rent next coming due.

          (3)  Correction of Tax Share Rent.  Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a
               ----------------------------
report for the previous fiscal year (the "Tax Report") by April 1 of each year,
                                          ----------
or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, setting forth (a) the actual
Taxes, (b) the amount of Tax Share Rent due from Tenant, and (c) the amount of
Tax Share Rent paid by Tenant.  Within twenty (20) days after such delivery,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount due from Tenant minus the amount paid by
Tenant.  If the amount paid exceeds the amount due, Landlord shall apply any
excess as a credit against Tenant's payments of Tax Share Rent next coming due.

          (1)  Included Operating Costs. "Operating Costs" means any expenses,
               ------------------------   ---------------
costs and disbursements of any kind other than Taxes, paid or incurred by
Landlord in connection with the management, maintenance, operation, insurance,
repair and other related activities in connection with any part of the Project
and of the personal property, fixtures, machinery, equipment, systems and
apparatus used in connection therewith, including the cost of providing those
repair, maintenance and services required to be furnished by Landlord to the
Premises and Building under this Lease, a management fee

                                       4

in an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the annual Base Rent and accounting
and administration costs incurred by Landlord with respect to the Project.
Operating Costs shall also include the costs of any capital improvements (other
than Landlord's Work, Initial Improvements, and Additional Improvements) which
reduce Operating Costs or improve safety, and those made to keep the Project in
compliance with governmental requirements applicable from time to time
(collectively, "Included Capital Items"); provided, that the costs of any
Included Capital Item shall be amortized by Landlord, together with an amount
equal to interest at ten percent (10%) per annum, over the estimated useful life
of such item and such amortized costs are only included in Operating Costs for
that portion of the useful life of the Included Capital Item which falls within
the Term.

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

          If Landlord does not furnish any particular service whose cost would
have constituted an Operating Cost to a tenant other than Tenant who has
undertaken to perform such service itself, Operating Costs shall be increased by
the amount which Landlord would have incurred if it had furnished the service to
such tenant.

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

                         (b)  costs of capital improvements other than Included
               Capital Items;

                         (c)  interest and principal payments on mortgages or
               any other debt costs, or rental payments on any ground lease of
               the Project;

                         (d)  real estate brokers' leasing commissions;

               thereof;

                         (f)  any cost or expenditure for which Landlord is
               reimbursed, by insurance proceeds or otherwise, except by
               Operating Cost Share Rent;

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

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

                         (i)  franchise or income taxes imposed upon Landlord;

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

                         (k)  legal and auditing fees which are for the benefit
               of Landlord such as collecting delinquent rents, preparing tax
               returns and other financial statements, and audits other than
               those incurred in connection with the preparation of reports
               required pursuant to Section 2B above;

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

                         (m)  fines, penalties and interest.

                         (n)  amounts paid for deductibles on insurance carried
by Landlord relating to the Project in excess of industry standard deductibles
for insurance policies covering comparable Projects.

          (3)  Taxes.  "Taxes" means any and all taxes, assessments and charges
               -----    -----
of any kind, general or special, ordinary or extraordinary, levied against the
Project, which Landlord shall pay or become obligated to pay in connection with
the ownership, leasing, renting, management, use, occupancy, control or
operation of the Project or of the personal property, fixtures, machinery,
equipment, systems and apparatus used in connection therewith.  Taxes shall
include real estate taxes, personal property taxes, sewer rents, water rents,
special or general assessments, transit taxes, ad valorem taxes, and any tax
levied on the rents hereunder or the interest of Landlord under this Lease (the
"Rent Tax").  Taxes shall also include all fees and other costs and expenses

Landlord in reviewing any tax and in seeking a refund or reduction of any Taxes,
whether or not the Landlord is ultimately successful.

          For any year, the amount to be included in Taxes (a) from taxes or
assessments payable in installments, shall be the amount of the installments
(with any interest) due and payable during such year, and (b) from all other
Taxes, shall at Landlord's election be the amount accrued, assessed, or
otherwise imposed for such year or the amount due and payable in such year.  Any
refund or other adjustment to any Taxes by the taxing authority, shall apply
during the year in which the adjustment is made.

          Taxes shall not include any net income (except Rent Tax), capital,
stock, succession, transfer, franchise, gift, estate or inheritance tax, except
to the extent that such tax shall be imposed in lieu of any portion of Taxes.

          (4)  Lease Year.  "Lease Year" means each consecutive twelve-month
               ----------    ----------
period beginning with the Commencement Date, except that if the Commencement
Date is not the first day of a calendar month, then the first Lease Year shall
be the period from the Commencement Date through the final day of the twelve
months after the first day of the following month, and each subsequent Lease
Year shall be the twelve months following the prior Lease Year.

          (5)  Fiscal Year.  "Fiscal Year" means the calendar year, except that
               -----------    -----------
the first fiscal year and the last fiscal year of the Term may be a partial
calendar year.

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

          (1)  Prorations.  If this Lease begins on a day other than the first
               ----------
day of a month, the Base Rent, Operating Cost Share Rent and Tax Share Rent
shall be prorated for such partial month based on the actual number of days in
such month.  If this Lease begins on a day other than the first day, or ends on
a day other than the last day, of the fiscal year, Operating Cost Share Rent and
Tax Share Rent shall be prorated for the applicable fiscal year.

          (2)  Default Interest.  Any sum due from Tenant to Landlord not paid
               ----------------
when due shall bear interest from the date due until paid at ten and one half
percent (10.5%).

          (3)  Rent Adjustments.  The square footage of the Premises and the
               ----------------
Building set forth in the Schedule are conclusively deemed to be the actual
square footage thereof, without regard to any subsequent remeasurement of the
Premises or the Building.  If any Operating Cost paid in one fiscal year relates
to more than one fiscal year, Landlord may proportionately allocate such
Operating Cost among the related fiscal years.

reflecting the Operating Costs and Taxes in accordance with sound accounting and
management practices.  Tenant and its certified public accountant shall have the
right to inspect Landlord's records at Landlord's office upon at least seventy-
two (72) hours' prior notice during normal business hours during the ninety (90)
days following the respective delivery of the Operating Cost Report or the Tax
Report.  The results of any such inspection shall be kept strictly confidential
by Tenant and its agents, and Tenant and its certified public accountant must
agree, in their contract for such services, to such confidentiality restrictions
and shall specifically agree that the results shall not be made available to any
other tenant of the Building.  Unless Tenant sends to Landlord any written
exception to either such report within said ninety (90) day period, such report
shall be deemed final and accepted by Tenant.  Tenant shall pay the amount shown
on both reports in the manner prescribed in this Lease, whether or not Tenant
takes any such written exception, without any prejudice to such exception.  If
Tenant makes a timely exception, Landlord shall cause its independent certified
public accountant to issue a final and conclusive resolution of Tenant's
exception.  Tenant shall pay the cost of such certification unless Landlord's
original determination of annual Operating Costs or Taxes overstated the amounts
thereof by more than five percent (5%).

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

     3.   PREPARATION AND CONDITION OF PREMISES; POSSESSION AND SURRENDER OF
          ------------------------------------------------------------------
PREMISES.
--------

     A.   Condition of Premises.  Except to the extent of the Tenant
          ---------------------
Improvements item on the Schedule, and without limiting Landlord s duties under
other provisions of this Lease, Landlord is leasing the Premises to Tenant "as
is", without any obligation to alter, remodel, improve, repair or decorate any
part of the Premises.  Landlord shall cause the Premises to be completed in
accordance with the Tenant Improvement Agreement attached as Appendix C.

     B.   Tenant's Possession.  Tenant's taking possession on the Commencement
          -------------------
Date of any portion of the Premises shall be conclusive evidence that the
Premises was in good order, repair and condition, other than latent and other
defects which are not discoverable upon reasonable inspection by Tenant at the
time of taking possession.  If Landlord authorizes Tenant to take possession of
any part of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date for purposes of doing
business, all terms of this Lease shall apply to such pre-Term possession,
including Base Rent at the rate set forth for the First Lease

                                       8
                                       -
<PAGE>

Year in the Schedule prorated for any partial month. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant shall be granted access to the Premises thirty (30) days prior
to the Commencement Date for the purposes of installing Tenant s furniture,
fixtures and equipment.

     In the event that through no fault of Tenant, and subject to force majeure,
Landlord has not substantially completed (as defined in Appendix C) the Premises
in accordance with Appendix C by the Commencement Date, as Tenant s sole and
exclusive remedy, Landlord shall provide Tenant with two (2) days of Base Rent
abatement credit for each day of late delivery until the Premises are
substantially complete provided, however, that in the event that Premises are
not delivered within 120 days of the Commencement Date, Tenant shall have the
right to terminate this Lease.

     C.   Surrender.  Subject to Landlord's obligations set forth herein and
          ---------
paragraph 4E, throughout the Term, Tenant shall maintain, repair and replace the
Premises in their condition as of the Completion Date, loss or damage caused by
the elements, ordinary wear, and fire and other casualty excepted, and at the
termination of this Lease, or Tenant's right to possession, Tenant shall return
the Premises to Landlord in broom-clean condition.  To the extent Tenant fails
to perform either obligation, Landlord may, but need not, restore the Premises
to such condition and Tenant shall pay the cost thereof.

     4.   BUILDING AND LANDLORD REPAIR.
          ----------------------------

     Landlord shall furnish the services, repair and maintenance to the Premises
and Buildings ("Building Services"), unless otherwise stated herein, as follows:

     A.   Heating and Air Conditioning.   Landlord shall furnish heating and air
          ----------------------------
conditioning system to the Premises as part of the Building Shell to provide a
comfortable temperature, in Landlord's judgment, for normal business operations.
Tenant may install supplementary stand alone air conditioning units in the
Premises, if necessary to maintain comfortable temperature for normal business
operations, provided that such improvements by Tenant shall be of Tenant's sole
cost and expense, and subject to Landlord's reasonable prior approval and the
terms of Article 5 hereof.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand as
Additional Rent the cost of operation, repair and maintenance thereof.

     B.   Electricity. Landlord shall furnish to the Premises as part of the
          -----------
Building Shell sufficient electricity to operate normal office equipment.
Tenant shall not install or operate in the Premises any electrically operated
equipment or other machinery, other than business machines and equipment
normally employed for general office use (other than equipment installed in
Tenant's "equipment demo rooms", engineering laboratories and on the production
floor) which do not require high electricity consumption for operation.  If any
of Tenant's equipment requires electricity consumption in excess of the capacity
of the electrical system installed by Landlord in the Premises, all additional

                                       9
                                       -
<PAGE>

transformers, distribution panels and wiring that may be required to provide the
amount of electricity required for Tenant's equipment shall be installed by
Landlord at the cost and expense of Tenant except to the extent covered by the
Landlord Contribution.  Tenant shall pay the cost of electricity it consumes as
recorded by the electric meter serving the Premises directly to the electric
company.  In the event that the Premises are not separately metered, Tenant
shall be billed periodically by Landlord based upon such consumption or shall be
made part of the Operating Cost Share Rent.

     C.   Water.  Landlord shall furnish hot and cold tap water for drinking and
          -----
toilet purposes to the Premises as part of the Building Shell.  Tenant shall pay
directly to the water company for water furnished and consumed.  Tenant shall
not permit water to be wasted.

     D.   Janitorial Service.  Tenant shall provide, at its own cost and
          ------------------
expense, janitorial services to the Premises.  At Tenant's request, Landlord may
furnish janitorial to the Premises.  Tenant shall reimburse Landlord such costs
as Additional Rent.

     E.   Landlord's Repair Obligations.  Subject to Tenant's obligations set
          -----------------------------
forth in paragraph 5F below and Landlord's rights to reimbursement of costs and
expenses as set forth in this Lease, Landlord shall repair, maintain and
replace, as necessary, the Building shell, the roof, exterior walls and
structural parts of the Premises, and equipment and fixtures comprising the
Building Services (unless otherwise expressly excluded as set forth in this
paragraph 4).  Tenant shall pay to and reimburse Landlord for the cost and
expense of Landlord's obligations hereunder as Operating Costs, or if such
services are provided solely to Tenant and the Premises, Landlord shall invoice
Tenant and Tenant shall pay Landlord, as Additional Rent, the cost of such
services.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not (i) be required to
make repairs necessitated by reason of the negligence or willful misconduct of
Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant, by reason of the failure of Tenant to
perform or observe any conditions or agreements of this Lease, or by reason of
any improvements or alterations made by Tenant, or (ii) be liable to Tenant for
failure to make repairs as herein specifically required of it unless Tenant has
notified Landlord, in writing (except in emergencies) of the need for such
repairs and Landlord has failed to commence said repairs within ten (10)
business days following receipt of Tenant's notification.

     F.   Interruption of Services.  If any of the Building utilities systems,
          ------------------------
equipment or machinery provided or maintained by Landlord ceases to function
properly for any cause, Landlord shall use reasonable diligence to repair the
same promptly.  Landlord's inability to furnish, to any extent, the Building
Services set forth in this Section 4, or any cessation thereof resulting from
any causes, including any entry for repairs pursuant to this Lease, and any
renovation, redecoration or rehabilitation of any area of the Building shall not
render Landlord liable for damages to either person or property or for
interruption or loss to Tenant's business, nor be construed as an eviction of
Tenant, nor work an abatement of any portion of rent, nor relieve Tenant from
fulfillment

                                      10
                                      --
<PAGE>

of any covenant or agreement hereof; provided, however, in the event that an
interruption of the Building Services set forth in this Section 4 to the extent
caused by Landlord's negligence or performance of its duties under this Lease
causes the Premises to be untenantable for a period of at least five (5)
consecutive business days, monthly Rent shall be abated proportionately.

     5.   ALTERATIONS AND REPAIRS BY TENANT.
          ---------------------------------

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

     Tenant shall not make any improvements or alterations to the Premises (the
"Work"), in excess of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) without in each instance
 ----
submitting plans to Landlord and obtaining Landlord's prior written consent,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  For purposes of this Section, the
term "Work" shall not include Tenant's furniture, fixtures or equipment.
Landlord will be deemed to be acting reasonably in withholding its consent for
any Work which (a) impacts the base structural components or systems of the
Building, (b) impacts any other tenant's premises, or (c) is visible from
outside the Premises, with the exception of antennas installed pursuant to
Section 6 hereof.  With respect to any consent required herein, Landlord shall
respond within ten (10) days.

     Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for actual costs incurred for review of the
plans and all other items submitted by Tenant.  Tenant shall pay for the cost of
all Work.  All Work shall become the property of Landlord upon its installation,
except for Tenant's trade fixtures and for items which Landlord requires Tenant
to remove at Tenant's cost at the termination of the Lease pursuant to Section
5E.

     The following requirements shall apply to all Work:

          (1)  Prior to commencement, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord building
permits, certificates of insurance satisfactory to Landlord, and, at Landlord's
request, security for payment of all costs.

          (2)  Tenant shall perform all Work so as to maintain peace and harmony
among other contractors serving the Project and shall avoid interference with
other work to be performed or services to be rendered in the Project.

          (3)  The Work shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner,
meeting the standard for construction and quality of materials in the Building,
and shall comply with all insurance requirements and all applicable governmental
laws, ordinances and regulations ("Governmental Requirements").
                                   -------------------------

                                      11
                                      --
<PAGE>

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

          (5)  Tenant shall perform all Work in compliance with Landlord's
"Policies, Rules and Procedures for Construction Projects" in effect at the time
the Work is performed.

          (6)  Tenant shall permit Landlord to supervise all Work.  Landlord may
charge a supervisory fee not to exceed five percent (5%) of labor, material, and
all other costs of the Work, if Landlord's employees or contractors perform the
Work.

          (7)  Upon completion, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with contractor's
affidavits and full and final statutory waivers of liens, as-built plans and
specifications, and receipted bills covering all labor and materials.

     B.   Damage to Systems.  If any part of the mechanical, electrical or other
          -----------------
systems in the Premises provided or maintained by landlord shall be damaged as a
result of Tenant's improvements or alterations, Tenant shall promptly notify
Landlord, and Landlord shall repair such damage.  Landlord may also at any
reasonable time make any repairs or alterations which Landlord deems necessary
for the safety or protection of the Project, or which Landlord is required to
make by any court or pursuant to any Governmental Requirement.  During any
period of Tenant's alteration or improvement of the Premises, Tenant shall at
its expense make all other repairs required as a result or caused by Tenant's
construction of alterations and improvements necessary to keep the Premises, and
Tenant's fixtures and personal property, in good order, condition and repair; to
the extent Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may make such repairs itself.  The
cost of any repairs made by Landlord on account of Tenant's default, or on
account of the mis-use or neglect by Tenant or its invitees, contractors or
agents anywhere in the Project, shall become Additional Rent payable by Tenant
on demand.

     C.   No Liens.  Tenant has no authority to cause or permit any lien or
          --------
encumbrance of any kind to affect Landlord's interest in the Project; any such
lien or encumbrance shall attach to Tenant's interest only.  If any mechanic's
lien shall be filed or claim of lien made for work or materials furnished to
Tenant, then Tenant shall at its expense within ten (10) days thereafter either
discharge or contest the lien or claim.  If Tenant contests the lien or claim,
then Tenant shall (i) within such ten (10) day period, provide Landlord adequate
security for the lien or claim, (ii) contest the lien or claim in good faith by
appropriate proceedings that operate to stay its enforcement, and (iii) pay
promptly any final adverse judgment entered in any such proceeding.  If Tenant
does not comply with these requirements, Landlord may discharge the lien or
claim, and the amount paid, as well as attorney's fees and other expenses
incurred by Landlord, shall become Additional Rent payable by Tenant on demand.

                                      12

     D.   Ownership of Improvements.  All improvements, alterations or work to
          -------------------------
the Premises as defined in this Section 5, partitions, hardware, equipment,
machinery and all other improvements and all fixtures except trade fixtures,
constructed in the Premises by either Landlord or Tenant, (i) shall become
Landlord's property upon installation without compensation to Tenant, unless
Landlord consents otherwise in writing, and (ii) shall at Landlord's option
either (a) be surrendered to Landlord with the Premises at the termination of
the Lease or of Tenant's right to possession, or (b) be removed in accordance
with Subsection 5E below (unless Landlord at the time it gives its consent to
the performance of such construction expressly waives in writing the right to
require such removal).

     E.   Removal at Termination.  Upon the termination of this Lease or
          ----------------------
Tenant's right of possession Tenant shall remove from the Project its trade
fixtures, furniture, moveable equipment and other personal property, any
improvements which Landlord elects shall be removed by Tenant pursuant to
Section 5D, and any improvements to any portion of the Project other than the

rights of any mortgagees or ground lessors, Landlord shall obtain the applicable
insurance proceeds and diligently restore the Building and the Premises subject
to current Governmental Requirements.  Tenant shall replace its damaged
improvements, personal property and fixtures.  Rent shall be abated on a per

                                      19

          (2)  Tenant becomes insolvent or bankrupt, does not generally pay its
debts as they become due, or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts,
or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors;

     13.  LANDLORD REMEDIES.
          -----------------

     A.   Termination of Lease or Possession.  If Tenant defaults, Landlord may
          ----------------------------------
elect by notice to Tenant either to terminate this Lease or to terminate
Tenant's possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease.  In either
case, Tenant shall immediately vacate the Premises and deliver possession to
Landlord, and Landlord may repossess the Premises and may, at Tenant's sole
cost, remove any of Tenant's signs and any of its other property, without
relinquishing its right to receive Rent or any other right against Tenant.

     B.   Lease Termination Damages.  If Landlord terminates the Lease, Tenant
          -------------------------
shall pay to Landlord all Rent due on or before the date of termination, plus
Landlord's reasonable estimate of the aggregate Rent that would have been
payable from the date of termination through the Termination Date, reduced by
the rental value of the Premises calculated as of the date of termination for
the same period, taking into account reletting expenses and market concessions,
both discounted to present value at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum.  If
Landlord shall relet any part of the Premises for any part of such period before
such present value amount shall have been paid by Tenant or finally determined
by a court, then the amount of Rent payable pursuant to such reletting (taking
into account any concessions) shall be deemed to be the reasonable rental value
for that portion of the Premises relet during the period of the reletting.

     C.   Possession Termination Damages.  If Landlord terminates Tenant's right
          ------------------------------
to possession without terminating the Lease and Landlord takes possession of the
Premises itself, Landlord may relet any part of the Premises for such Rent, for
such time, and upon such terms as Landlord in its sole discretion shall
determine, without any obligation to do so prior to renting other vacant areas
in the Building.  Any proceeds from reletting the Premises shall first be
applied to the expenses of reletting, including redecoration, repair,
alteration, advertising, brokerage, legal, and other reasonably necessary
expenses.  If the

                                      20
                                      --
<PAGE>

reletting proceeds after payment of expenses are insufficient to pay the full
amount of Rent under this Lease, Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord
monthly upon demand as it becomes due. Any excess proceeds shall be retained by
Landlord.

     D.   Landlord's Remedies Cumulative.  All of Landlord's remedies under this
          ------------------------------
Lease shall be in addition to all other remedies Landlord may have at law or in
equity.  Waiver by Landlord of any breach of any obligation by Tenant shall be
effective only if it is in writing, and shall not be deemed a waiver of any
other breach, or any subsequent breach of the same obligation.  Landlord's
acceptance of payment by Tenant shall not constitute a waiver of any breach by
Tenant, and if the acceptance occurs after Landlord's notice to Tenant, or
termination of the Lease or of Tenant's right to possession, the acceptance
shall not affect such notice or termination.  Acceptance of payment by Landlord
after commencement of a legal proceeding or final judgment shall not affect such
proceeding or judgment.  Landlord may advance such monies and take such other
actions for Tenant s account as reasonably may be required to cure or mitigate
any default by Tenant.  Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord for any such
advance, and such sums shall bear interest at the default interest rate until
paid.

     E.   WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.  EACH PARTY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT
          -----------------------
OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE OTHER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE.
EACH PARTY SHALL BRING ANY ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
LEASE IN A FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN WASHINGTON, CONSENTS TO THE
JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO HAVE ANY PROCEEDING
TRANSFERRED FROM SUCH COURTS ON THE GROUND OF IMPROPER VENUE OR INCONVENIENT
FORUM.

     F.   Litigation Costs.  Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable attorneys'
          ----------------
fees and other costs in any action brought to enforce this Lease.

     14.  SURRENDER.  Upon termination of this Lease or Tenant's right to
          ---------
possession, Tenant shall return the Premises to Landlord in good order and
condition, ordinary wear and casualty damage excepted.  If Landlord requires
Tenant to remove any alterations, then Tenant shall remove the alterations in a
good and workmanlike manner and restore the Premises to its condition prior to
their installation.

     15.  HOLDOVER.  If Tenant retains possession of any part of the Premises
          --------
after the Term, Tenant shall become a month-to-month tenant for the entire
Premises upon all of the terms of this Lease as might be applicable to such
month-to-month tenancy, except that Tenant shall pay all of Base Rent, Operating
Cost Share Rent and Tax Share Rent at one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of
the rate in effect immediately prior to such holdover, computed on a monthly
basis for each full or partial month Tenant remains in possession.  Tenant shall
also pay Landlord all of Landlord's

                                       21
<PAGE>

direct and consequential damages if such holdover is without consent. No
acceptance of Rent or other payments by Landlord under these holdover provisions
shall operate as a waiver of Landlord's right to regain possession or any other
of Landlord's remedies.

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

     A.   Subordination.  Subject to Section 16B, this Lease shall be
          -------------
subordinate to any present or future ground lease or mortgage respecting the
Project, and any amendments to such ground lease or mortgage, at the election of
the ground lessor or mortgagee as the case may be, effected by notice to Tenant
in the manner provided in this Lease. The subordination shall be effective upon
such notice, but at the request of Landlord or ground lessor or mortgagee,
Tenant shall within ten (10) days of the request, execute and deliver to the
requesting party any reasonable documents provided to evidence the
subordination.

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

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

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

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

     A.   In General.  Tenant shall not, without the prior consent of Landlord
          ----------
in each case, (i) make or allow any assignment or transfer, by operation of law
or otherwise, of any part of Tenant's interest in this Lease, (ii) grant or
allow any lien or encumbrance, by operation of law or otherwise, upon any part
of Tenant's interest in this Lease, (iii) sublet any part of the Premises, or
(iv) permit anyone other than Tenant and its employees to occupy any part of the
Premises. Tenant shall remain primarily liable for all of its obligations under
this Lease, notwithstanding any assignment or transfer. No consent granted by
Landlord shall be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment or
transfer, lien or encumbrance, sublease or occupancy. Tenant shall pay
reasonable Landlord's attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred in connection
with any consent requested by Tenant or in reviewing any proposed assignment or
subletting. Any assignment or transfer, grant of lien or encumbrance, or
sublease or occupancy without Landlord's prior written consent shall be void.

     B.   Landlord's Consent.  Landlord will not unreasonably withhold its
          ------------------
consent to any proposed assignment or subletting. It shall be reasonable for
Landlord to withhold its consent to any assignment or sublease if (i) Tenant is
in default under this Lease, (ii) the proposed assignee or sublessee is a tenant
in the Project and Landlord has appropriate available space in the Project,
(iii) the financial condition, nature of business, and character of the proposed
assignee or subtenant are not all reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, (iv) in
the reasonable judgment of Landlord the purpose for which the assignee or
subtenant intends to use the Premises (or a portion thereof) is not in keeping
with Landlord's standards for the Building or are in violation of the terms of
this Lease or any other leases in the Project. The foregoing shall not exclude
any other reasonable basis for Landlord to withhold its consent.

     C.   Procedure.  Tenant shall notify Landlord of any proposed assignment or
          ---------
sublease at least thirty (30) days prior to its proposed effective date. The
notice shall include the name and address of the proposed assignee or subtenant,
its corporate affiliates in the case of a corporation and its partners in a case
of a partnership, an execution copy of the proposed assignment or sublease, and
sufficient information to permit Landlord to determine the financial condition
and character of the proposed assignee or subtenant. As a condition to any
effective assignment of this Lease, the assignee shall execute and deliver in
form satisfactory to Landlord at least fifteen (15) days prior to the effective
date of the assignment, an assumption of all of the obligations of Tenant under
this Lease. As a condition to any effective sublease, subtenant shall execute
and deliver in form satisfactory to Landlord at least fifteen (15) days prior to
the

                                      23

<PAGE>

effective date of the sublease, an agreement to comply with all of Tenant's
obligations under this Lease, and at Landlord's option, an agreement (except for
the economic obligations which subtenant will undertake directly to Tenant) to
attorn to Landlord under the terms of the sublease in the event this Lease
terminates before the sublease expires.

     D.   Change of Ownership.  Any direct or indirect change in 50% or more of
          -------------------
the ownership interest in Tenant shall constitute an assignment of this Lease;
provided, however, that Landlord hereby consents to any such assignment that is
in connection with (i) transfer of shares between existing shareholders, (ii)
redemption of shares by Tenant, or (iii) a public offering of Tenant s stock
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Notwithstanding Landlord's prior
consent to the foregoing, Tenant shall provide Landlord with written notice
required hereunder.

     E.   Excess Payments.  If Tenant shall assign this Lease or sublet any part
          ---------------
of the Premises for consideration in excess of the pro-rata portion of Rent
applicable to the space subject to the assignment or sublet, then Tenant shall
pay to Landlord as Additional Rent 50% of any such excess immediately upon
receipt.

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

     19.  ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.  Each party shall, within ten (10) days of
          --------------------
receiving a request from the other party, execute, acknowledge in recordable
form, and deliver to the other party or its designee a certificate stating,
subject to a specific statement of any applicable exceptions, that the Lease as
amended to date is in full force and effect, that the Tenant is paying Rent and
other charges on a current basis, and that to the best of the knowledge of the
certifying party, the other party has committed no uncured defaults and has no
offsets or claims. The certifying party may also be required to state the date
of commencement of payment of Rent, the Commencement Date, the Termination Date,
the Base Rent, the current Operating Cost Share Rent and Tax Share Rent
estimates, the status of any improvements required to be completed by Landlord,
the amount of any security deposit, and such other matters as may be reasonably
requested. Failure to deliver such statement within the time required shall be
conclusive evidence against the non-certifying party that this Lease, with any
amendments identified by the requesting party, is in full force and effect, that
there are no uncured defaults by the requesting party, that not more than one
month's Rent has been paid in advance, that the non-certifying party has not
paid any security deposit, and that the non-certifying party has no claims or
offsets against the requesting party.

     20.  SECURITY DEPOSIT.  Tenant shall arrange for the issuance and delivery
          ----------------
to Landlord on the date of this Lease, as security for the performance of all of
its obligations of Tenant hereunder an irrevocable, standby letter of credit
(the "Letter of Credit") from Silicon Valley Bank, Imperial Bank or such other
commercial bank of Tenant's choosing and reasonably acceptable and in form and
content reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, in the amount set forth on the
Schedule. Upon the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver a Letter of
Credit in the amount of $1,000.000. The amount of the Letter of Credit shall be
increased by $1,000,000 on January 1, 1998 and then by $500,000 on the
Commencement Date. If Tenant defaults under this Lease, Landlord may use any
part of the Letter of Credit or Security Deposit to make any defaulted payment,
to pay for Landlord's cure of any defaulted obligation, or to compensate
Landlord for any loss or damage resulting from any default. Landlord agrees to
release the Letter of Credit upon satisfaction of all of the following
conditions: (i) Tenant s Operating Income from continuing operations under GAAP
exceeds $500,000 for four consecutive quarters; (ii) Tenant s cash and
receivables are a minimum of $10,000,000; (iii) a current ratio (defined as
current assets divided by current liabilities) of at least two times; and (iv)
Tenant has delivered a certificate of the President of Tenant representing and
warranting the foregoing and the amount of one month s rent as a Security
Deposit. Landlord may keep the Security Deposit, if cash, in its general funds
and shall not be required to pay interest to Tenant on the deposit amount. If
Tenant shall perform all of its obligations under this Lease and return the
Premises to Landlord at the end of the Term, Landlord shall return all of the
remaining Security Deposit to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the end of
the Term. The Security Deposit shall not serve as an advance payment of Rent or
a measure of Landlord's damages for any default under this Lease.

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

     21.  FORCE MAJEURE.  Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease to
          -------------
the extent Landlord is unable to perform any of its obligations on account of
any strike or labor problem, energy shortage, governmental pre-emption or
prescription, national emergency, or any other cause of any kind beyond the
reasonable control of Landlord ("Force Majeure"). This Section 21 shall not
limit Tenant's rights to any abatement of rent expressly allowed in this Lease.

Lease.

     E.   No Option.  This document shall not be effective for any purpose until

     O.   Landlord's Title.  Without limiting Tenant s right to peaceful and

the interest of the Tenant, and nothing in this Lease shall empower Tenant to do
anything which might in any way impair Landlord's title.

     P.   Light and Air Rights.  Landlord does not grant in this Lease any

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

the same becomes due and payable, then Tenant shall pay a late charge equal to
the greater of three and one-half percent (3-1/2%) of the amount of such payment
or $250. In addition, interest shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on any late
payments of Rent from the date due until paid at the rate provided in Section

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

     28.  HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES.  Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous
          --------------------
Substances to be brought upon, produced, stored, used, discharged or disposed of
in or near the Project unless Landlord has consented to such storage or use in

described in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq., the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901 et seq., any
other applicable federal, state or local law, and the regulations adopted under
these laws. If any lender or governmental agency shall require testing for
Hazardous Substances in the Premises, Tenant shall pay for such testing.

     29.  EXCULPATION.  Without limiting Tenant's rights to abatement of rent as
          -----------

                         TENANT IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT

     1.   INITIAL IMPROVEMENTS.  Landlord shall cause to be performed the
improvements (the "Initial Improvements") in the Premises provided for in the
                   --------------------
plans and specifications prepared by _________________________ dated
_______________ and agreed to by Landlord and Tenant (the "Plans").  The Initial

Improvements shall be performed by _________________________ (the "Contractor"),

Commencement Date specified in the Schedule to the Lease, subject to Tenant
Delay (as defined in Section 4 hereof) and any Force Majeure.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Landlord shall be required to deliver only 73,000 square feet of
the Premises on the Commencement Date.  The remaining 23,000 square feet shall
be delivered within 180 days of Tenant s written notice of its intent to occupy
the remaining space; provided, however, that rent shall commence no later than
January 1, 1999 regardless of the date Tenant occupies such space.  Landlord may
charge a supervisory fee not to exceed three percent (3%) of labor, material and
all other costs of the Initial Improvements and the Additional Improvements.

Landlord does not approve of the plans for Additional Improvements, Landlord
shall advise Tenant of the revisions required. Tenant shall revise and redeliver
the plans and specifications to Landlord within five (5) business days of
Landlord's advice or Tenant shall be deemed to have abandoned its request for
such Additional Improvements.  Tenant shall pay for all such preparations and

Improvements, subject to Landlord s Contribution.

     3.   LANDLORD'S CONTRIBUTION.  Landlord shall contribute an amount of

costs incurred by Landlord for the Initial Improvements or Additional
Improvements or other items Tenant is responsible for hereunder that constitute
a physical improvement to the Premises such as cabling and security.  Landlord

Landlord's Contribution.  If the cost of the Initial Improvements exceeds the
Landlord's Contribution, Tenant shall pay such overage to Landlord upon
completion of construction of the Initial Improvements.  Tenant shall also pay
to Landlord prior to commencement of construction, the cost of all Additional
Improvements above the Landlord's Contribution.

     4.   COMMENCEMENT DATE DELAY.  Commencement Date shall be

cause Landlord's Architect to certify the date on which the Initial Improvements
would have been completed but for such Tenant Delay, or were in fact completed
without any Tenant Delay.

Tenant and its agents to enter the Premises thirty (30) days prior to the
Commencement Date to prepare the Premises for Tenant's use and occupancy.   Any

                                EXTENSION OPTION

     EXTENSION OPTION.  Subject to Subsection B below, Tenant may at its option
     ----------------
extend the Term of this Lease for TWO (2) successive periods of FIVE (5) YEARS
each.  Each such period is called a "Renewal Term", and the first such FIVE (5)
                                     ------------
YEAR period is called the "First Renewal Term" and the second such five (5) year
                           ------------------
period is called the "Second Renewal Term".  Each Renewal Term shall be upon the
                      -------------------
same terms contained in this Lease except for the payment of Base Rent during
the Renewal Term; and any reference in the Lease to the "Term" of the Lease
shall be deemed to include any Renewal Term and apply thereto, unless it is
expressly provided otherwise.  Tenant shall have no additional extension
options.

     A.   The Base Rent during a Renewal Term shall be the greater of (i) the
Base Rent applicable to the last day of the final Lease Year prior to the
applicable Renewal Term, or (ii) 100% of the Market Rate (defined hereinafter)
for such space for a term commencing on the first day of the Renewal Term.
"Market Rate" shall mean the then prevailing market rate for a five (5) year
 -----------
term commencing on the first day of the Renewal Term for tenants of comparable
size and creditworthiness for comparable buildings in the general vicinity of
the Project.  Determination of the Market Rate shall include, without
limitation, then current applicable market conditions such as rent abatements,
tenant allowances, cash incentives, broker commissions, Tenant's use,
availability of space in the Redmond area, the build out of the Premises and
such additional factors as might reasonably be considered in determining the
Market Rate.

     B.   To exercise any option, Tenant must deliver a binding notice to
Landlord not less than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial
Term of this Lease, or the first Renewal Term, as the case may be. Thereafter,
the Market Rate for the particular Renewal Term shall be calculated pursuant to
Subsection C below and Landlord shall inform Tenant of the Market Rate.  Such
calculations shall be final and shall not be recalculated at the actual
commencement of such Renewal Term.  If Tenant fails to timely give its notice of
exercise, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its option to extend.

     C.   Market Rate shall be determined as follows:

          (i) If Tenant provides Landlord with its binding notice of exercise
     pursuant to Subsection B above, then at some point between thirteen (13)
     and eleven (11) months prior to the commencement of the applicable Renewal
     Term (or, at Landlord s election, at an earlier point), Landlord shall
     calculate and inform Tenant of the Market Rate.  At the same time Landlord
     shall provide to Tenant in writing supporting information used by Landlord
     to calculate the Market Rate including rental rates and lease terms on
     comparable buildings, which Landlord

                                  APPENDIX G
                                  Page 1 of 2
<PAGE>

     shall identify by name and location. If Tenant rejects the Market Rate as
     calculated by Landlord, Tenant shall inform Landlord of its rejection
     within twenty (20) days after Tenant s receipt of Landlord s calculation,
     and Landlord and Tenant shall commence negotiations to agree upon the
     Market Rate. If Tenant fails to timely reject Landlord s calculation of the
     Market Rate it will be deemed to have accepted such calculation. If
     Landlord and Tenant are unable to reach agreement within twenty-one (21)
     days after Landlord s receipt of Tenant s notice of rejection, then the
     Market Rate shall be determined in accordance with (ii) below.

          (ii)  If Landlord and Tenant are unable to reach agreement on the
     Market Rate within said twenty-one (21) day period, then within seven (7)
     days, Landlord and Tenant shall each simultaneously submit to the other in
     a sealed envelope its good faith estimate of the Market Rate.  If the
     higher of such estimates is not more than one hundred five percent (105%)
     of the lower, then the Market Rate shall be the average of the two.
     Otherwise, the dispute shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with
     (iii) below.

          (iii) Within seven (7) days after the exchange of estimates, the
     parties shall select as an arbitrator an independent MAI appraiser with at
     least five (5) years of experience in appraising office space in the
     metropolitan area in which the Project is located (a "Qualified
     Appraiser").  If the parties cannot agree on a Qualified Appraiser, then
     within a second period of seven (7) days, each shall select a Qualified
     Appraiser and within ten (10) days thereafter the two appointed Qualified
     Appraisers shall select a third Qualified Appraiser and the third Qualified
     Appraiser shall be the sole arbitrator.  If one party shall fail to select
     a Qualified Appraiser within the second seven (7) day period, then the
     Qualified Appraiser chosen by the other party shall be the sole arbitrator.

          (iv)  Within twenty-one (21) days after submission of the matter to
     the arbitrator, the arbitrator shall determine the Market Rate by choosing
     whichever of the estimates submitted by Landlord and Tenant the arbitrator
     judges to be more accurate. The arbitrator shall notify Landlord and Tenant
     of its decision, which shall be final and binding. If the arbitrator
     believes that expert advice would materially assist him, the arbitrator may
     retain one or more qualified persons to provide expert advice. The fees of
     the arbitrator and the expenses of the arbitration proceeding, including
     the fees of any expert witnesses retained by the arbitrator, shall be paid
     by the party whose estimate is not selected. Each party shall pay the fees
     of its respective counsel and the fees of any witness called by that party.

     D.   Tenant's option to extend this Lease is subject to the conditions
that:  (i) on the date that Tenant delivers its binding notice exercising an
option to extend, Tenant is

                                  APPENDIX G
                                  Page 2 of 2

not in default under this Lease after the expiration of any applicable notice
and cure periods.

                                  APPENDIX H
                     EXPANSION OPTION AND LETTER OF CREDIT

     1.   EXPANSION OPTION.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this
          ----------------
paragraph, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant an option (the "Option") to lease
Building 6 located in the Project as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto (the
"Expansion Space").  To exercise the Option, Tenant must deliver a binding
written notice to Landlord of its intent to lease the Expansion Space on or
before May 1, 1999.  In the notice of intent to lease, Tenant shall specify the
date on which the Landlord shall deliver the Expansion Space to Tenant, which
date (i) shall not be less than nine (9) months from the date of the notice, and
(ii) shall be no later than February 1, 2000 .  Tenant hereby acknowledges that
time is of the essence with respect to delivery of the notice and that failure
to deliver such written notice to Landlord within the time required shall result
in the termination of Tenant s Option to lease the Expansion Space.  Upon proper
exercise of Tenant s Option, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant the Expansion
Space on the specific delivery date, unless otherwise mutually agreed by
Landlord and Tenant.  Tenant s notice of its election to exercise its Option for
the Expansion Space shall be subject to the following conditions:  (a) the Lease
shall be in full force and effect at the time of the exercise of such Option;
and (b) Tenant shall not be in default (subject to any notice and cure periods)
under the Lease.

     Tenant s lease of the Expansion Space shall be on the same terms and
conditions of this Lease of the Premises, including, without limitation, at the
rental rates paid at the time of such election for the Premises and, except for
Extension Options without further extension of the term of the Lease (it being
the intent of the parties that the lease of the Expansion Space shall be co-
terminus with the lease of the Premises).  Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to
execute an Amendment to Lease evidencing the lease of the Expansion Space in
form consistent with the terms hereof and satisfactory to the parties.  Landlord
shall deliver to Tenant the Expansion Space in a similar condition and terms as
the Premises were delivered to Tenant, including, Landlord s work and the Tenant
improvement allowance set forth in the Lease for the initial Premises.

     2.   LETTER OF CREDIT.  Section 12 of the Lease is hereby supplemented and
          ----------------
modified by adding the following language as Section 12E:

                                  APPENDIX H

<PAGE>

     E.   Default Relating to Letter of Credit.  In the event that thirty (30)
          ------------------------------------
days prior to the expiry date set forth in the Letter of Credit or replacement
Letter of Credit required to be provided by Tenant pursuant to Article 20 hereof
and which is in effect at such time, Tenant fails to (1) obtain an extension of
such Letter of Credit or (2) provide a new Letter of Credit, as security for the
performance of all of its obligations hereunder in form and substance
satisfactory to Landlord, Landlord may, at its sole and exclusive remedy for
such default, present drafts for payment of the entire amount of the Letter of
Credit and such amounts shall be held by Landlord as a Security Deposit pursuant
to the terms of Article 20 hereof.
