          THIS STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the 16th
day of May, 2007, by and between SENTISEARCH, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
and Erik R. Lundh( the “Optionee”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Optionee, and the Optionee desires to accept, an
option to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the
“Common Stock”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained and
other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

          1. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the Optionee an option to purchase up to 50,000
shares of Common Stock, at a purchase price of $0.18 per share, which is the closing price per
share of the Common Stock on the date hereof.

          2. Vesting; Term. This option shall be fully vested on the date of grant and may be
exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the date hereof. Unless
terminated sooner, this option will expire on the fifth anniversary of the date hereof if and to
the extent it has not been previously exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if, at any
time prior to the first anniversary of the date hereof, Optionee no longer serves on the Board of
Directors of the Company, this option shall expire thirty (30) days from the date of such
termination of service; and (ii) if, at any time on or after the first anniversary of the date
hereof, and prior to the fourth anniversary of the date hereof, Optionee no longer serves on the
Board of Directors of the Company, this option shall expire one year from the date of such
termination of service.

          3. Non-Transferability. This option shall not be transferable other than by will or
the laws of descent and distribution and, during Optionee’s lifetime, shall not be exercisable by
any person other than Optionee.

          4. Exercise of Option. This option may be exercised by transmitting to the Secretary
of the Company (or such other person designated by the Company) a written notice specifying the
number of shares being purchased, together with payment in full of the exercise price. As soon as
practicable after this option is duly exercised, the Company will deliver to the Optionee a
certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the Optionee pursuant to such
exercise. The Optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common
Stock covered by this option unless and until the shares of Common Stock are issued pursuant to the
exercise of this option.

          5. Compliance with Law. The Company will not be obligated to issue or deliver shares
of Common Stock pursuant to this option unless the issuance and delivery of such shares complies
with applicable law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the requirements of any stock

 

 

exchange or market upon which the Common Stock may then be listed. The Company may prevent or
delay the exercise of this option if and to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in
order to avoid a violation of applicable law or its own policies regarding the purchase and sale of
Common Stock. If, during the period of any such ban or delay, the term of this option would expire,
then the term of this option will be extended for thirty (30) days after the Company removes the
restriction against exercise.

          6. Transfer Orders; Legends. All certificates for shares of Common Stock delivered
under this option shall be subject to such stock-transfer orders and other restrictions as the
Company may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange or market upon which the Common Stock may then be
listed, and any applicable federal or state securities law. The Company may cause a legend or
legends to be placed on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

          7. Miscellaneous This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement
constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and,
may not be modified other than by written instrument executed by the parties.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been executed as of the date first above written.

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement"), dated as of
May 17, 2007, between WELLSFORD REAL PROPERTIES, INC., a Maryland corporation,
with offices at 535 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022 (the "Company" or
"Employer"), REIS SERVICES, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company and a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with offices at 535 Madison Avenue, New

"Employers"), and JEFFREY H. LYNFORD, an individual residing at 10 Holly Branch
Road, Katonah, NY 10536 (the "Executive").

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive are party to an Employment Agreement
dated as of May 30, 1997 (the "Original Agreement");

     WHEREAS, the Original Agreement was amended and restated pursuant to that
certain Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as December 7, 2001,
between the Company and the Executive (the "First Restatement");

     WHEREAS, the First Restatement was amended and restated pursuant to that
certain Second Amended and Restated Employment Agreement dated August 19, 2004,
between the Company and the Executive (the "Second Restatement");

     WHEREAS, the Company, LLC and Reis, Inc, a Delaware corporation ("Reis"),
have entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October
11, 2006 (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms
and conditions of which, Reis will merge (the "Merger") with and into LLC and
LLC will be the survivor in the Merger;

     WHEREAS, in anticipation of the consummation of the Merger, the Company
desires to ensure the services of the Executive beyond the term of employment
provided for in the Second Restatement and LLC desires to secure the services of
Executive and the parties hereto desire to modify the Second Restatement in
certain other respects; and

     WHEREAS, the Employers and the Executive desire to amend and restate the
Second Restatement and desire that this Agreement become effective immediately
following, and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Time, as defined in
the Merger Agreement, (the "Employment Date").

     NOW, THEREFORE for good and valuable consideration received by the parties
hereto.

     IT IS AGREED:

     1. Duties. (a) During the term of the Executive's employment hereunder the
Executive shall serve and (i) the Company shall employ the Executive as Chairman
of the Board and (ii) LLC shall employ the Executive as Chairman. The Executive
shall preside over the meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Board") and of the stockholders of the Company at which he shall be present and
shall in general oversee all of the business and affairs of the

<PAGE>

Company and LLC and will perform such services consistent with those of a
Chairman of the Board as may be assigned to the Executive by the Board. The
Executive hereby accepts such employment and agrees to perform such services.

          (b) Subject to the other provisions of this subsection 1(b), the
Executive shall devote such portion of his time, attention and energies during
business hours as may be necessary for him to perform his duties hereunder. The
foregoing shall not be construed to prevent Executive from devoting time during
business hours to (i) charitable and civic endeavors and (ii) performing
services for and engaging in business activities with other persons, so long as
such endeavors, services and activities do not prevent Executive from fulfilling
his fiduciary responsibilities to the Employers.

          (c) The Executive shall cooperate with the Employers, including taking
such medical examinations as the Employers reasonably shall deem necessary, if
the Employers shall desire to obtain medical, disability or life insurance with
respect to the Executive. Where reasonably possible, the Employers shall
cooperate with the Executive's request to have such examinations performed by
the Executive's personal physician or another physician reasonably acceptable to
the Executive.

          (d) The Executive shall not be required to relocate or conduct the
Employers' business outside the New York, New York area in order to perform his
duties under this Agreement but shall undertake such reasonable business travel
as may be necessary to perform said duties (for which the Executive shall be
reimbursed pursuant to Section 4 below for costs and expenses incurred in
connection therewith).

     2. Employment Term. This Agreement shall be for the period commencing on
the Employment Date and terminating on the third anniversary thereof (the
"Termination Date" and each 12 month period during the term, with the first such
period commencing on the Employment Date, a "Contract Year"). In the event that
the Merger Agreement is terminated for any reason whatsoever, this Agreement
shall be void ab initio, and the Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that
nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate the Company, Reis or LLC
to consummate the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement or otherwise.

     3. Compensation. (a) (a) For all services rendered by the Executive
pursuant to this Agreement the Employers are jointly and severally obligated to
pay to the Executive a base salary at the annual rate of $375,000 per annum,
commencing on the Employment Date. All such compensation shall be paid
semi-monthly or at such other regular intervals, not less frequently than
monthly, as the Employers may establish from time to time for executive
employees of the Employers.

          (b) During the term of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to the
Executive on an annual basis (but not later than the 15th day of the third month
following the calendar year in which the premiums are paid by Executive) an
additional amount grossed up such that after payment by Executive of all income
taxes payable on such grossed up amount, the net after tax amount is equal to
Executive's annual premiums under the insurance policies referenced in that that
certain Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreement dated November 18, 1993

                                       -2-

<PAGE>

between Wellsford Residential Property Trust and Jeffrey H. Lynford, as modified
by the Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreement dated December 11, 1995, which
annual premiums currently aggregate approximately $19,500.

          (c) In addition to the compensation set forth in Section 3 hereof, the
Executive shall be awarded such bonus by the Employers for each year or partial
year of his employment hereunder as the Board shall determine in its sole
discretion. In determining such bonus, the Executive understands that the Board
will consider, without limitation, the following factors with respect to the
applicable year or partial year or any fiscal year or period of the Employers
ending prior to the expiration of such year or partial year: the Employers'
financial performance, business performance and growth during such period;
Executive's performance and responsibilities (including his participation in
transactions of particular financial or business significance to the Employers)
during such period; and such other factors as the Board may deem appropriate in
their sole discretion. Such bonus may consist of cash; grants of shares of
common stock of the Company ("Shares"); grants of restricted stock units;
options to purchase Shares; share appreciation rights (whether independent of or
in conjunction with awards of options); and such other awards as the Board in
its sole discretion may deem appropriate and which it believes is in furtherance
of the growth of stockholder value. As previously provided for in the Second
Restatement, the bonus payable by Employers to Executive shall not be less than
$375,000 for the calendar year ended December 31, 2007. Any bonus payable
hereunder shall be paid not later than the 15th day of the third month following
the calendar year for which it is determined by the Board to pay such bonus.

          (d) Pursuant to resolutions of the committee that administers the
Company's stock option plans and incentive plans, which resolutions were
ratified by the board of directors of the Company on January 26, 2006, among
other things, the expiration dates of certain options held by Executive were
extended. Specifically, the expiration date of all non-incentive stock options
that were "out of the money" on December 14, 2005 that would otherwise expire
prior to December 31, 2008 were extended to the later of (a) December 31 of the
year in which they would otherwise expire or (b) the fifteenth day of the third
month following the date the options would otherwise expire based on the terms
of each option at their original grant date. The committee wanted to extend to
December 31, 2008 such options that would expire prior to December 31, 2008, but
limited the term of the extension in the manner set forth to comply with the
rules of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). In the
event extensions of such options can, at a later date, be extended to December
31, 2008 without subjecting the Executive to additional tax under Section 409A
of the Code, then the Company shall do so.

     4. Expenses. (a) The Company shall pay for all legal and accounting fees
and expenses incurred by the Executive in connection with the structuring,
negotiation and preparation of this Agreement. Each Employer shall reimburse the
Executive for all out-of-pocket expenses actually and necessarily incurred by
him in the conduct of the business of such Employer against reasonable
substantiation submitted with respect thereto.

          (b) Unless the provisions of subsection 4(c) hereof shall apply, the
Employers shall be jointly and severally obligated to reimburse the Executive
for all legal fees and related expenses (including the costs of experts,
evidence and counsel) paid by the Executive as a result

                                       -3-

<PAGE>

of (i) the termination of Executive's employment (including all such fees and
expenses, if any, incurred in contesting or disputing any such termination of
employment), (ii) the Executive seeking to obtain or enforce any right or
benefit provided by this Agreement or by any other plan or arrangement
maintained by the Employers under which the Executive is or may be entitled to
receive benefits, (iii) the Executive's hearing before the Board as contemplated
in subsection 6(c) hereof or (iv) any action taken by the Employers against the
Executive; provided, however, that the Employers shall reimburse the legal fees
and related expenses described in this subsection 4(b) only if and when (A) the
dispute is settled by the parties or resolved pursuant to a binding arbitration
award in a manner that is more favorable to the Executive than offered by the
Employers or (B) a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent
jurisdiction has been rendered in favor of the Executive and the time for appeal
therefrom has expired and no appeal has been perfected. All reimbursements shall
be made within 30 days of submission of reasonable substantiation thereof.

          (c) The Employers shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay all
legal fees and related expenses (including the costs of experts, evidence and
counsel) incurred by the Executive as they become due as a result of (i) the
termination of Executive's employment (including all such fees and expenses, if
any, incurred in contesting or disputing any such termination of employment),
(ii) the Executive seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by
this Agreement or by any other plan or arrangement maintained by the Employers
under which the Executive is or may be entitled to receive benefits, (iii) the
Executive's hearing before the Board as contemplated in subsection 6(c) hereof
or (iv) any action taken by the Employers against the Executive, until such time
as (A) the dispute is settled by the parties or resolved pursuant to a binding
arbitration award in a manner that is more favorable to the Executive than
offered by the Employers or (B) a final judgment, order or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction has been rendered in favor of the Employers and the time
for appeal therefrom has expired and no appeal has been perfected; provided,
however, that the circumstances set forth above occurred on or after a change in
control of either Employer, as defined in subsection 6(e). In no event shall the
Executive be required to reimburse the Employers for any legal fees or related
expenses paid by the Employers pursuant to this subsection 4(c).

     5. Benefits. The Executive shall be entitled to six weeks of paid vacation
each year and such other medical and other benefits as are afforded from time to
time to all executive employees of the Company. The Employers shall be jointly
or severally obligated to indemnify the Executive in the performance of his
duties pursuant to the bylaws or organization documents of the Employers and to
the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, including, without limitation,
legal fees, and shall continue to maintain the Executive as a named beneficiary
under any liability insurance policies maintained for directors and/or officers
of the Employers for so long as Executive shall remain a director or officer of
either Employer. In addition, following the termination of the Executive's
employment with the Employers, the Company shall maintain in effect a directors'
and officers' liability insurance policy pursuant to which the Executive shall
be insured for a period of six years following such date of termination for all
claims relating to matters occurring on or prior to such date of termination to
the extent the Executive was insured by the Company prior to such termination.

                                       -4-

<PAGE>

     6. Earlier Termination. (a) If the Executive shall fail, because of
disability to render the services contemplated by this Agreement for six
successive months or for shorter periods aggregating nine months in any of the
three Contract Years, the Board may determine, on the basis of medical evidence
satisfactory to the Board, in the Board's sole discretion, that the Executive
has become disabled. If within thirty (30) days after the date on which written
notice of such determination is given to the Executive, the Executive shall not
have returned to the full-time performance of his duties hereunder, this
Agreement and the employment of the Executive hereunder shall be deemed
terminated on such 30th day in accordance with Section 8 hereof.

          (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if the Executive
shall die during the term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed to
have been terminated as of the date of death of the Executive.

          (c) The Employers, by notice to the Executive, may terminate this
Agreement for proper cause. As used herein, "proper cause" shall mean (i) the
willful and continued failure by the Executive to substantially perform his
duties with the Employers (other than any such failure resulting from the
Executive's incapacity due to physical or mental illness or any such actual or
anticipated failure resulting from termination by the Executive for Good Reason
(as defined below)) after a written demand for substantial performance is
delivered to the Executive by the Board, which demand specifically identifies
the manner in which the Board believes that the Executive has not substantially
performed his duties, or (ii) the willful engaging by the Executive in conduct
which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Employers, monetarily or
otherwise. For purposes of this subsection 6(c), no act, or failure to act, on
the Executive's part shall be deemed "willful" unless done, or omitted to be
done, by the Executive otherwise than in good faith and in a manner that the
Executive reasonably believed was in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Employers and their equity owners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive
shall not be deemed to have been terminated for proper cause unless and until
there shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly
adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the members
of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after
reasonable notice to the Executive and an opportunity for the Executive,
together with counsel of his choosing, to be heard before the Board not less
than 10 business days after the giving of such notice), finding that in the good
faith opinion of the Board, the Executive conducted himself as set forth in
clause (i) or (ii) above and specifying the particulars of such conduct in
detail. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no
failure to perform by the Executive after a notice of termination is given by
the Executive to the Employers shall constitute "proper cause" for purposes of
this Agreement.

          (d) The Executive may terminate this Agreement for "Good Reason" if
any of the following events occurs:

               (i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties materially
          inconsistent with his status as a senior executive officer of the
          Employers or a substantial alteration in the nature or status of his
          responsibilities;

               (ii) the Employers' material breach of any of their agreements or
          obligations under this Agreement and the failure of the Employers to
          remedy such

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

          material breach within 20 days following delivery by the Executive to
          the Employers of written notice setting forth such breach with
          specificity;

               (iii) the failure by the Employers to pay the Executive any
          installment of a previous award under any bonus or incentive
          compensation arrangement;

               (iv) the failure of the Employers to obtain a satisfactory
          agreement from any successor to assume and agree to perform this
          Agreement, as contemplated in Section 15 hereof;

               (v) any "change in control", as defined in subsection 6(e); or

               (vi) Executive being removed from, not nominated for re-election
          to, or not re-elected to the Board, other than for proper cause, or at
          his request.

          (e) For purposes of this Agreement, a "change in control" shall be
deemed to occur if:

               (A) Any of the following occurs: (1) an LLC Sale Change of
Control, (2) an LLC Acquisition Change of Control, (3) an LLC 14A Change of

voting securities of the Company immediately before such transaction; provided
that notwithstanding the foregoing, a WRP Sale Change of Control shall be deemed

               (G) Any Person or group of affiliated Persons owns at any time
30% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, provided that
such Person or group shall not be deemed to own 30% or more of the outstanding
voting securities of the Company if the last event or transaction which results
in such ownership is (a) the issuance of such securities in connection with the
acquisition by the Company of assets or (b) the acquisition by the Company of
any such voting securities; provided, however, that if a Person owns 30% or more
of the outstanding voting securities of the Company as a result of the
acquisition by the Company of any such voting securities and after such
acquisition by Company, such Person becomes the owner of any additional voting
securities of the Company then a change in control of the Company shall occur.

               (H) During any period of twelve consecutive months or less,
individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board cease, for
any reason, to constitute at least a majority of the Board, unless the election
or nomination for election of each new director was approved by at least
two-thirds of the directors then still in office who were directors at the
beginning of the period (either by a specific vote of such directors or by the
approval of the Employer proxy statement in which each such individual is named
as a nominee for a director without written objection to such nomination by such
directors); provided, however, that no individual initially elected or nominated
as a director as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with
respect to directors or as a result of any other actual or threatened
solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of any person other than the
Board shall be deemed to be approved (solely for purposes of this clause (H)).

          (f) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, if the Executive's employment is terminated prior to a change in
control and the Executive reasonably demonstrates that such termination: (i) was
at the request of a third party who has indicated an intention or taken steps
reasonably calculated to effect a change in control and who effectuates a change
in control or (ii) otherwise occurred in connection with, or in anticipation

                                       -8-

<PAGE>

of, a change in control which actually occurs, then for all purposes of this
Agreement, the date of a change in control with respect to the Executive shall
mean the date immediately prior to the date of such termination of the
Executive's employment.

     7. Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of the Executive's
employment by the Employers or by the Executive shall be communicated by a
written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with
Section 16 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination"
shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in
this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts
and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive's
employment under the provision so indicated.

     8. Date of Termination, Etc. "Date of Termination" shall mean (a) if the
Executive's employment is terminated for disability, thirty (30) days after
Notice of Termination is given (provided that the Executive shall not have
returned to the full-time performance of his duties during such thirty (30) day
period), and (b) if the Executive's employment is terminated pursuant to
subsection 6(c) or 6(d) hereof or for any other reason (other than disability),
the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a
termination pursuant to subsection 6(c) hereof shall not be less than thirty
(30) days, and in the case of a termination pursuant to subsection 6(d) hereof
shall not be less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days, respectively,
from the date such Notice of Termination is given); provided, however, if within
thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given the party receiving
such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists
concerning the termination, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which
the dispute is finally resolved, either by mutual written agreement of the
parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree
of a court of competent jurisdiction (which is not appealable or the time for
appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected), except
that with respect to a termination of this Agreement by reason of expiration of
its term as provided in Section 2 hereof, the Date of Termination shall be the
date the term hereof expires pursuant to Section 2 hereof, regardless of whether
a dispute exists with respect thereto; provided, further, that the Date of
Termination shall be extended by a notice of dispute only if such notice is
given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of
such dispute with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such
dispute, the Employers will continue to pay the Executive his full compensation
in effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given (including, but
not limited to, base salary and installments under any bonus or incentive
compensation plan) and continue the Executive as a participant in all
compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which he was participating when the
notice giving rise to the dispute was given, until the dispute is finally
resolved in accordance with this Section 8. Amounts paid under this Section 8
are in addition to all other amounts due under this Agreement and shall not be
offset against or reduce any other amounts due under this Agreement. If it is
finally determined by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order
or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (which is not appealable or the
time for appeal therefrom having expired and no appeal having been perfected),
that the Executive was terminated for proper cause, the Executive shall promptly
remit to the Employers the amount of any cash payments and the value of any
non-cash benefits paid pursuant to this Section 8 to which the Executive would
not otherwise have been entitled.

                                       -9-

     9. Compensation Upon Termination or During Disability. Upon termination of
the Executive's employment or during a period of disability the Executive shall
be entitled to the following compensation and benefits:

          (a) During any period that the Executive fails to perform his duties
hereunder as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, the
Executive shall continue to receive his base salary at the annual rate in effect
at the commencement of any such period until his employment is terminated
pursuant to subsection 6(a) hereof. The Employers shall also be jointly and
severally obligated to pay Executive for the year in which he is terminated as a
result of his disability any bonus that the Board determines to pay to Executive
pursuant to subsection 3(c) hereof for the year in which Executive's employment
is terminated. Any such bonus shall be paid as soon as practicable practicable
following the first date such amounts can be paid without incurring additional
tax under Section 409A of the Code.

          (b) If the Executive's employment shall be terminated, at any time
prior to a change in control, by the Employers for proper cause or by him other
than for Good Reason, the Executive shall be paid the Executive's base salary
payable pursuant to subsection 3(a) hereof through the Date of Termination.

          (c) If the Executive's employment shall be terminated by reason of the
Executive's death, the base salary at the annual rate then in effect shall be
paid to the person designated from time to time in writing by the Executive and,
if not so designated, to the Executive's estate for the period up to and
including the date of Executive's death. The Employers shall also be jointly and
severally obligated to pay such person or the estate, as the case may be, any
bonus that the Board determines to pay to Executive pursuant to subsection 3(c)
hereof for the year in which Executive's employment is terminated. Any such
bonus shall be paid within 30 days of the Date of Termination.

          (d) If (i) the Executive's employment is terminated at any time (A) by
the Employers other than for proper cause or (B) by the Executive for any Good
Reason other than a change in control, or (ii) either Employer is liquidated or
the assets of either Employer are distributed to a liquidating trust, the
Employers shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the Executive no later
than thirty days after the Date of Termination an amount equal to the greater of
(x) the aggregate amount of base salary that would have become payable to the
Executive pursuant to Section 3(a) from the Date of Termination through the
expiration of the Employment Period and (y) $375,000, plus in each of clause (x)
or (y) above, a pro rata portion (based on the number of days that Executive was
employed by the Employers during the Contract Year in which employment
terminated), of any annual bonus paid or payable for the immediately preceding
Contract Year (or calendar year if there has not been a previous Contract Year).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, such amounts shall be paid as soon as practicable
following the first date such amounts can be paid without incurring additional
tax under Section 409A of the Code.

          (e) If the Executive's employment shall be terminated by the Executive
for Good Reason solely as a result of a change in control, the Employers shall
be jointly and severally obligated to pay to Executive, within 30 days from the
Date of the Termination an amount equal to, (1) 2.5 times the annual base salary
payable to Executive pursuant to Section

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

3(a) hereof, plus (2) a pro rata portion (based on the number of days that
Executive was employed by the Employers during the Contract Year in which
employment terminated) of any annual bonus paid or payable for the immediately
preceding Contract Year (or calendar year if there has not been a previous
Contract Year). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such amounts shall be paid as
soon as practicable following the first date such amounts can be paid without
incurring additional tax under Section 409A of the Code.

          (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any of the payments
payable under Section 9(d) and/or Section 9(e), as the case may be, would
constitute an "excess" parachute payment under Section 280G of the Code and by
reason of such excess parachute payment Executive would be subject to an excise
tax under Section 4999(a) of the Code (as determined by Executive's tax
advisor), then the payments shall be reduced to the largest amount that can be
received by Executive without incurring an excise tax under Section 4999(a) of
the Code (as determined by Executive's tax advisor); provided, however, that
such reduction shall occur only if the after-tax value of the benefits to
Executive calculated with the foregoing reduction exceed those calculated
without the foregoing reduction. It is the Executive's preference that all
amounts not paid to Executive by reason of a reduction hereunder shall be paid
by the Employers in equal amounts to Princeton University'sWoodrow Wilson School
of Public, International Affairs and the National Trust for Historic
Preservation; and the Weill Medical College of Cornell University (to be applied
for student scholarships for international study), provided that the Executive
is not a director or trustee of such charities; further, provided, that the
Employers shall not be under any obligation to make any such payments to such
charities.

          (g) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement, Executive
hereby waives the right to receive any payments under the Second Restatement or
this Agreement solely as a result of a change in control of the Company arising
out of the Merger.

          (h) Executive shall have the right to defer receipt of all payments to
be made pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 9(d)
and/or Section 9(e) hereof, as the case may be, provided such deferrals do not
subject the Executive to additional tax under Section 409A of the Code.

          (i) If the Executive's employment is terminated for any reason
whatsoever (other than by the Employers for proper cause), including by reason
of expiration of its term, the Company shall assign to Executive, without the
payment of any consideration by the Executive, all of the Company's right, title
and interest in and to that certain Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreement dated
November 18, 1993 between Wellsford Residential Property Trust and Jeffrey H.
Lynford, as modified by the Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreement dated December
11, 1995 and the related insurance policies referred to therein, and in
connection therewith the Company shall be deemed to have automatically waived
repayment of any paid or accrued premiums with respect to such policy. These
benefits shall be administered in a manner that does not subject the Executive
to additional tax under Section 409A of the Code.

          (j) If the Executive's employment is terminated for any reason
whatsoever (other than by the Employers for proper cause), all theretofore
unvested stock options, restricted

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other awards issued to
Executive shall vest immediately prior to such termination.

          (k) If the Executive's employment is terminated at any time following
a change in control, for proper cause, the Employers shall be jointly and
severally obligated to pay the Executive his full base salary through the Date
of Termination at the higher of the rate in effect at the time Notice of
Termination is given and the rate in effect immediately prior to the change in
control.

          (l) In addition to all other amounts payable to the Executive under
this Section 9, the Executive shall be entitled to receive all benefits payable
to him under the Employers' pension plans applicable to him and any other plan
or agreement relating to retirement benefits including, without limitation, any
deferred compensation arrangements (but subject to any then existing deferral
elections of Executive), as in effect upon the occurrence of a change in control
or the Executive's employment with either Employer being terminated for any
reason whatsoever (other than by the Employers for proper cause), including by
reason of expiration of its term.

          (m) The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
payment provided for in this Section 9 or elsewhere in this Agreement by seeking
other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit
provided for in this Section 9 or elsewhere in this Agreement be reduced by any
compensation earned by him as the result of employment by another employer or by
retirement benefits after the Date of Termination, or as a result of services
performed by him as permitted under subsection 1(b) hereof, or otherwise, except
as specifically provided in this Section 9.

          (n) In the event the Executive's employment hereunder is terminated
for any reason whatsoever (except by the Employers for proper cause), the
Employers agree to continue, at their own cost and expense, the medical,
hospitalization, dental and life insurance benefits available to the Executive
(and any of his dependents who as on such date of termination were covered
thereunder) at the time his employment is terminated from such date of
termination through the later of (i) the Termination Date and (ii) 18 months
from such date of termination; provided, however, that if such continued
participation would result in additional tax to the Executive under Section 409A
of the Code, the Executive will be required to pay his own premiums for such
benefits coverage and then, as soon as practicable following the first date such
payment can be made without incurring additional tax under Section 409A of the
Code, the Executive will be paid an amount such that, after payment of income
taxes, the Executive is fully reimbursed for the cost of such premiums. If the
terms of the Employers' health, dental and life insurance plans do not permit
the Executive (and any of his dependents who as on such date of termination were
covered thereunder) to be insured thereunder when he is no longer an employee,
then the Employers will be jointly and severally obligated to pay to the
Executive, as soon as practicable, following the first date such payment can be
made without incurring additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, an amount
such that after payment of income taxes, the Executive is fully reimbursed for
his cost of providing such benefits. In addition, to the extent he remains
eligible (provided the Executive may at any time supplement any cost necessary
to allow for continued eligibility as provided under the terms of the applicable
policy), the Executive may continue participation in the Employers' long-term
disability plan on the

                                      -12-

<PAGE>

same basis as provided prior to his termination of employment, at his own cost
and expense, through the Termination Date.

     10. Business Opportunities. If the Board shall determine that the Company
should not acquire an asset or develop, implement, operate, manage or otherwise
participate in any business opportunity (each of the foregoing, a "Business
Opportunity"), then the Executive shall be entitled to participate, directly or
indirectly, in such Business Opportunity so long as such activities do not
prevent Executive from fulfilling his fiduciary responsibilities to the Company.

     11. Confidentiality. Executive expressly recognizes and acknowledges that:

          (a) The Employers have developed and established a valuable and
extensive clientele for its real estate information reporting services.

          (b) The Employers' business connections and clients have been
established and maintained at great expense and are of great value to the
Employers.

          (c) The Executive has and will become familiar with and possessed of
the manner, method, secrets, and confidential and proprietary information
pertaining to the Employers' business methods and the business requirements and
needs of their clients (collectively, "Confidential Information").

          (d) By virtue of this Agreement and predecessor agreements, the
Executive has and will become personally acquainted with the clients, business
methods, and trade secrets of the Employers.

          (e) In recognition and in consideration of the foregoing, the
Executive expressly covenants and agrees as follows:

               (i) During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, the
Executive shall not divulge to others or use for his own benefit, or assist
others in using such information for their benefit, any Confidential Information
obtained prior to or after the date hereof from the Employers by virtue of the
relationship created hereunder or otherwise, unless such Confidential
Information is or becomes generally available to the public (other than by
reason of Employee's breach of this clause (i)) and except in connection with
(A) the performance of the Executive's duties hereunder (B) enforcement of the
Executive's rights under this Agreement and (C) as required by law.
Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing, the parties hereto hereby acknowledge
and agree that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 11(e), the
Executive's employment or retention as a consultant in the real estate
information industry does not, in and of itself, constitute a breach of this
clause (i).

               (ii) The Executive acknowledges that damages resulting from the
breach of the provisions of this Section 11(e) may be difficult to calculate. In
the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of the provisions of
this Section 11(e), the Employers shall be entitled to apply to any court of
competent jurisdiction for an injunction against such breach, actual or
threatened. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employers shall at all times
retain their right to recover from the Executive, or any other person or entity
that may be held liable, their damages resulting from such breach.

                                      -13-

<PAGE>

     12. Ownership of Materials. All records, materials, lists, files, manuals,
tapes and all other written or recorded data and information in whatever form
(collectively, "Materials") that may be used by, or made available to the
Executive in connection with his employment hereunder are and shall remain the
sole property of the Employers. As soon as practicable following the voluntary
or involuntary termination of the Executive's employment hereunder, the
Executive shall return or cause to be returned to the Employers all Materials in
the Executive's possession and/or under his control.

     13. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO
CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES.

     14. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the
parties and is intended to supersede all prior employment negotiations,
understandings and agreements. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or
changed, except by a writing signed by the party to be charged with such waiver
or change.

     15. Successors; Binding Agreement. (a)(a) This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive's personal or legal
representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees,
devisees and legatees. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement,
including, without limitation, Section 9, if the Executive should die while any
amount would still be payable to him hereunder if he had continued to live, all
such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement to the Executive's devisee, legatee or other
designee or, if there is no such designee, to the Executive's estate.

          (b) Subject to clause (c) below, each Employer will require any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or
otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of such
Employer to expressly assume and agree in writing to perform this Agreement in
the same manner and to the same extent that the Employer would be required to
perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Employer to
obtain and deliver to Executive such assumption and agreement prior to (but
effective only upon) such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement, except
that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such
succession becomes effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination. As used in
this Agreement, "Employer" or "Employers" shall mean the Employer or Employers
as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its or their business and/or assets
as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement, expressly, by
operation of law, or otherwise.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon
the occurrence of: (i) any change in control set forth in Section 6(e)(A), LLC
shall no longer be deemed an Employer hereunder and the Executive shall not be
employed by LLC or any successor to LLC resulting from such change in control;
provided that the Company shall continue to be deemed an Employer hereunder and
the Executive shall remain employed by the Company pursuant to the terms and
conditions hereof, and (ii) a change in control pursuant to Section 6(e)(A),
(B), (C), (D), (E), (F), (G) or (H), the Executive may terminate this Agreement
pursuant to the terms of Section 6(d)(v).

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

          (d) The Executive may assign his right to receive any payments due to
him under this Agreement to an entity owned or controlled by the Executive
and/or members of his family.

     16. Notices. All notices provided for in this Agreement shall be in
writing, and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered personally
to the party to receive the same or when mailed first class postage prepaid, by
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the party
to receive the same at his or its address above set forth, or such other address
as the party to receive the same shall have specified by written notice given in
the manner provided for in this Section 16. All notices shall be deemed to have
been given as of the date of personal delivery or mailing thereof.

     17. Severability. If any provision in this Agreement is determined to be
invalid, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the other
remaining provisions hereof.

                                      -15-
