EXHIBIT 10.03

                         EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         This Executive Employment Agreement (the "Agreement"), by and among
Take to Auction.com, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Company") and Jonathan Geller
("Employee"), is hereby entered into as of this 1st day of October, 1999.

                               A G R E E M E N T S

         In consideration of the mutual promises, terms, covenants and
conditions set forth herein and the performance of each, and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as
follows:

1. EMPLOYMENT AND DUTIES.

         (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company
hereby employs Employee as Chief Technology Officer of the Company. As such,
Employee shall have responsibilities, duties and authority reasonably accorded
to and expected of such position and will report directly to the Board. Employee
hereby accepts this employment upon the terms and conditions herein contained
and, subject to paragraph 1(b) hereof, agrees to devote Employee's full business
time, attention and efforts to promote and further the business of the Company.
Employee shall faithfully adhere to, execute and fulfill all policies
established by the Company.

         (b) Employee shall not, during the term of his employment hereunder, be
engaged in any other business activity pursued for gain, profit or other
pecuniary advantage if such activity interferes with Employee's duties and
responsibilities hereunder. The foregoing limitations shall not be construed as
prohibiting Employee from making personal investments in such form or manner as
will neither require Employee's services in the operation or affairs of the
companies or enterprises in which such investments are made nor violate the
terms of paragraph 3 hereof.

2. TERM. The Company employs Employee for a period commencing the date hereof
and ending on the third anniversary of the date hereof (the "Term"), subject to
termination prior to such date pursuant to Section 6 hereof. Sixty (60) days
prior to the end of the Term (or any renewal term), either the Company or
Employee may give notice to the other of its determination not to renew this
Agreement. If a notice of non-renewal is not delivered, this Agreement will
automatically continue in effect for successive one (1) year renewal term
subject to termination prior to such date pursuant to Section 6 hereof. If such
notice of non-renewal is given by any party, then Employee's employment will
terminate at the end of such term (or on such other date as the parties mutually
agree).

3. COMPENSATION. For all services rendered by Employee, the Company shall
compensate Employee as follows:

<PAGE>

         (a) BASE SALARY. The base salary payable hereunder to Employee shall
equal $120,000 per year, payable on a regular basis in accordance with the
Company's standard payroll procedures but not less than monthly. On at least an
annual basis, the Company's Board (the "Board"), together with the Compensation
Committee of the Company's Board, will review Employee's performance and may
make increases to such base salary if, in its discretion, any such increase is
warranted. Such recommended increase would require approval by the Board or a
duly constituted committee thereof.

         (b) EXECUTIVE PERQUISITES, BENEFITS, AND OTHER COMPENSATION. Employee
shall be entitled to receive additional benefits and compensation from the
Company in such form and to such extent as specified below:

                  (i) Payment of all premiums for coverage for Employee under
health, hospitalization, disability, dental, life and other insurance plans that
the Company may have in effect from time to time. The benefits provided to
Employee under this clause (i) shall be at least equal to such benefits provided
to executives or employees in similar positions at the Company.

                  (ii) Reimbursement for all business travel and other
out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by Employee in the performance of
Employee's services pursuant to this Agreement. All reimbursable expenses shall
be appropriately documented in reasonable detail by Employee upon submission of
any request for reimbursement, and in a format and manner consistent with the
Company's expense reporting policy.

                  (iii) The Company shall provide Employee with other executive
perquisites (including, but not limited to, participation in the Company's
Long-Term Incentive Plan) as may be available to or deemed appropriate for
Employee by the Board and participation in all other Company-wide employee
benefits as available from time to time. Employee shall be entitled to four
weeks of vacation per year in addition to all Federal and religious holidays.

4. NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION.

         (a) Employee acknowledges that during the course of Employee's
employment Employee will receive confidential and proprietary information from
and concerning the Company. Employee also acknowledges that the Company will
make substantial investments in the development of the Company's goodwill and in
Employee's professional development. The capital expended to develop this
goodwill directly benefits Employee and should continue to do so in the event
that the relationship between the Company and Employee is terminated. Likewise,
the Company has conferred and will confer a direct economic benefit on Employee.
Employee agrees that the Company is entitled to protect these business interests
and investments and to prevent Employee from using or taking advantage of the
foregoing economic benefits to the Company's detriment.

         (b) Employee agrees that, except for services and duties performed for
or on behalf of the Company according to this Agreement, Employee will not,
during the period of Employee's employment with the Company, and for a period
(the "Restricted Period") of one (1) year immediately following the termination

                                       2
<PAGE>

of Employee's employment under this Agreement, for any reason whatsoever,
directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any
other person, persons, company, partnership, corporation, association,
enterprise, venture or business of whatever nature:

                  (i) engage, as an officer, director, shareholder, owner,
partner, joint venturer, lender or in a managerial capacity, whether as an
employee, independent contractor, agent, consultant or advisor or as a sales
representative, in any online auction facilitation or similar business in direct
competition with those aspects of the business of the Company or any subsidiary
of the Company, with which Employee has had any involvement, within United
States of America, Canada and all other countries in which customers of the
Company have access to the world wide web (the "Territory");

                  (ii) solicit any person who is, at that time, or who has been
within one (1) year prior to that time, an employee of the Company for the
purpose or with the intent of enticing such employee away from or out of the
employ of the Company;

                  (iii) solicit any person or entity which is, at that time, or
which has been within one (1) year prior to that time, a customer, doctor,
service provider or supplier of the Company for the purpose of soliciting or
selling products or services in direct competition with those aspects of the
business of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company with which Employee has
had any involvement, within the Territory; or

                  (iv) solicit any prospective acquisition candidate, on
Employee's own behalf or on behalf of any competitor or potential competitor,
which candidate was, to Employee's knowledge, either called upon by the Company
or for which the Company made an acquisition analysis, for the purpose of
acquiring such entity. Notwithstanding the above, the foregoing covenant shall
not be deemed to prohibit Employee from acquiring as an investment not more than
two percent (2%) of the capital stock of a competing business, whose stock is
traded on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter.

         (c) In recognition of the substantial nature of such potential damages
and the difficulty of measuring economic losses to the Company as a result of a
breach of the foregoing covenants, and because of the immediate and irreparable
damage that could be caused to the Company for which they would have no other
adequate remedy, Employee agrees that in the event of breach by Employee of the
foregoing covenant, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of
this provision and co-injunctive and other equitable relief.

         (d) It is agreed by the parties that the foregoing covenants in this
paragraph 4 impose a reasonable restraint on Employee in light of the activities
and business of the Company on the date of the execution of this Agreement and
the current plans of the Company and Employee that such covenants be construed
and enforced in accordance with the changing activities, business and locations
of the Company throughout the term of this Agreement, whether before or after
the date of termination of the employment of Employee. For example, if, during
the term of this Agreement, the Company engages in new and different online

                                       3
<PAGE>

auction facilitation activities, or establishes new locations for its current
activities or business and Employee is involved with providing such new online
auction facilitation services, then Employee will be precluded from soliciting
the customers or employees of such new activities or business or from such new
location and from directly competing with such new business within the United
States of America through the term of this Agreement.

         (e) All of the covenants in this paragraph 4 shall be construed as an
agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the
existence of any claim or cause of action of Employee against the Company,
whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a
defense to the enforcement by the Company of such covenants. Further, this
paragraph 4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination
of Employee's employment with the Company. It is specifically agreed that the
period of one (1) year following termination of employment stated at the
beginning of this paragraph 4, during which the agreements and covenants of
Employee made in this paragraph 4 shall be effective, shall be computed by
excluding from such computation any time during which Employee is in violation
of any provision of this paragraph 4.

5. TERMINATION; RIGHTS ON TERMINATION. This Agreement and Employee's employment
may be terminated for any one of the following causes:

         (a) DEATH. The death of Employee shall immediately terminate this
Agreement with no severance compensation due to Employee's estate, heirs or
other descendants or representatives.

         (b) DISABILITY. If, as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental
illness or injury, Employee shall have been absent from Employee's full-time
duties hereunder for four (4) consecutive months, then thirty (30) days after
receiving written notice (which notice may occur before or after the end of such
four (4) month period, but which shall not be effective earlier than the last
day of such four (4) month period), the Company may terminate Employee's
employment hereunder provided Employee is unable to resume Employee's full-time
duties at the conclusion of such notice period. Also, Employee may terminate
Employee's employment hereunder if his health should become impaired to an
extent that makes the continued performance of Employee's duties hereunder
hazardous to Employee's physical or mental health or life, provided that
Employee shall have furnished the Company with a written statement from a
qualified doctor to such effect and provided, further, that, at the Company's
request made within thirty (30) days of the date of such written statement,
Employee shall submit to an examination by a doctor selected by the Company who
is reasonably acceptable to Employee or Employee's doctor and such doctor shall
have concurred in the conclusion of Employee's doctor. In the event this
Agreement is terminated as a result of Employee's disability, Employee shall
receive from the Company Employee's base salary at the rate then in effect,
payable at the Company's regular and customary intervals for the payment of
salaries as then in effect, less any amounts Employee might receive under the
Company's disability insurance policy, if any, for whatever time period is
remaining under the Term or for six (6) months, whichever amount is less.

                                       4
<PAGE>

         (c) CAUSE. The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion,
terminate the employment of Employee hereunder immediately upon after delivery
of written notice to Employee, or at such later time as the Company may specify
in such notice, for "Cause." As used in this Agreement "Cause" includes, but is
not limited to, the following: (1) Employee's willful and material breach of
this Agreement; (2) Employee's gross negligence in the performance, or
intentional nonperformance, (continuing for ten (10) days after receipt of
written notice of need to cure) of any of Employee's material duties and
responsibilities hereunder; (3) Employee's willful dishonesty or fraud, whether
or not with respect to the business or affairs of the Company, which affects the
operations, property or reputation of the Company; (4) Employee's conviction of
a felony crime; (5) chronic alcohol or illegal drug abuse by Employee; (6)
Employee's willful injury to any independent contractor, employee or agent of
the Company, or to any other person in the course of Employee's performance of
services for the Company; or (7) If Employee sexually harasses any employee,
agent or contractor of the Company or commits any act which otherwise creates an
offensive work environment for employees, agents or contractors of the Company.

         The Company shall not be limited to termination as a remedy for any
damaging, injurious, improper or illegal act by Employee, but may also seek
damages, injunction, or such other remedy as the Company may deem appropriate
under the circumstances. If Employee's employment is terminated for Cause,
Employee agrees to vacate the Company's offices on or before the effective date
of the termination and to return and deliver to the Company at such time all
Company property. In the event of a termination for Cause, as enumerated above,
Employee shall have no right to any severance compensation.

         (d) WITHOUT CAUSE. At any time after the commencement of employment,
provided the Company does not have Cause to terminate Employee pursuant to (c)
above, Employee may, without Cause, terminate this Agreement and Employee's
employment, effective ninety (90) days after written notice is provided to the
Company. Employee may only be terminated without Cause by the Company during the
Term hereof if such termination is approved by a majority of the members of the
Board. Should Employee be terminated by the Company without Cause during the
Term, Employee shall be entitled to receive from the Company one (1) year's base
salary (at Employee's then current base) payable over the course of the year
following such termination. The severance compensation shall be paid in
accordance with the Company's standard payroll procedures but not less than
monthly. If Employee resigns or otherwise terminates Employee's employment
without cause pursuant to this paragraph 5(d), Employee shall receive no
severance compensation.

         (e) TERMINATION BY EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON OR UPON CHANGE IN CONTROL.
Upon the termination of the Employee's employment hereunder by the Employee (i)
for "Good Reason", as specified in Section 5(e)(B) hereof, or (ii) within 180
days after the occurrence of a "Change in Control" as specified in Section
5(e)(A) hereof, the Company shall (i) continue to pay to the Employee the base
salary through the effective date of termination specified in such notice and
(ii) pay to the Employee, in a lump sum, an amount equal to 200% of the annual
base salary prevailing on the date of such termination. In addition, upon such

                                       5
<PAGE>

termination, all options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, if
any, shall accelerate and become immediately exercisable.

                  (A) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control"
shall mean:

                           (i) The acquisition (other than by or from the
Company), at any time after the date hereof, by any person, entity or "group",
within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either the then
outstanding shares of common stock or the combined voting power of the Company's
then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (together with such common stock, "Voting Securities"); or

                           (ii) Approval by the shareholders of the Company of
(x) a reorganization, merger or consolidation with respect to which persons who
were the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization,
merger or consolidation do not, immediately thereafter, own more than 50% of the
combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of
the reorganized, merged or consolidated company's then outstanding voting
securities, (y) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or (z) the sale of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, unless the approved
reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution or sale is
subsequently abandoned.

                  (B) For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean:

                           (i) The assignment to the Employee of any duties
inconsistent in any respect with the Employee's position (including status,
offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or
responsibilities as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement, or any other
action by the Company which results in a diminution in such position, authority,
duties or responsibilities, excluding for this purpose an isolated,
insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is
remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of written notice thereof given
by the Employee;

                           (ii) Any failure by the Company to comply with any of
the provisions of Section 3 of this Agreement, other than an isolated,
insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in bad faith and which is
remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of written notice thereof given
by the Employee;

                           (iii) The Company's requiring the Employee to be
based at any office or location other than the Company's offices in Miami,
Florida, except for travel reasonably required in connection with the
performance of the Employee's responsibilities hereunder; or

                           (iv) Any purported termination by the Company of the
Employee's employment other than as expressly permitted by this Agreement.

                                       6
<PAGE>

         (f) Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason provided above,
Employee shall be entitled to receive all compensation earned and all benefits
and reimbursements due through the effective date of termination. Additional
compensation subsequent to termination, if any, will be due and payable to
Employee only to the extent and in the manner expressly provided above. All
other rights and obligations of the Company and Employee under this Agreement
shall cease as of the effective date of termination, except that the Company's
obligations under paragraph 10 hereof and Employee's obligations under
paragraphs 4, 8, 9 and 11 hereof shall survive such termination in accordance
with their terms. Further, unless Employee and the Company otherwise agree in
writing, upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Employee will
immediately resign from all director, officer or other positions held with the
Company.

         (g) If termination of Employee's employment arises out of the Company's
failure to pay Employee the amounts to which he is entitled under this Agreement
or as a result of any other material breach of this Agreement by the Company, as
determined pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 16 below, the Company shall
pay all amounts and damages to which Employee may be entitled as a result of
such breach, including interest thereon and all reasonable legal fees and
expenses and other costs incurred by Employee to enforce Employee's rights
hereunder. Further, none of the provisions of paragraph 4 hereof shall apply in
the event this Agreement is terminated as a result of a material breach by the
Company.

6.       PARTICIPATION IN STOCK OPTION PLAN.

         The Employee shall be granted an option (the "Option") to purchase
70,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common
Stock"), at an exercise price of $0.41, the fair market value of the Company's
common stock on October 1, 1999. The Option may be exercised, in whole or in
part, in accordance with the following vesting schedule: (i) 1/3 of the Option
shall vest one year after the signing of this Agreement, (ii) 1/3 of the Option
shall vest two years after the signing of this Agreement, and (iii) 1/3 of the
Option shall vest three years after the signing of this Agreement. The Option
shall expire ten (10) years from the date hereof (the "Expiration Date"), and
must be exercised, if at all, in whole or in part, on or before the Expiration
Date. The Option Agreement will be in substantially the form of Exhibit A
attached hereto.

7.       PURCHASE RIGHT ON EMPLOYEE'S STOCK AND OPTIONS.

         (a) Irrevocable Option to Purchase. Upon (i) the death or Retirement of
Employee, (ii) the Company's termination of Employee's employment with the
Company by reason of Employee's Disability pursuant to the provisions of
paragraph 5(b) (a "Disability Termination") or for any other reason except a
termination for Cause pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 5(c) (a "Non-Cause
Termination"), or (iii) the termination of Employee's employment with the
Company by Employee for any reason other than a termination which follows less
than six months service to the Company or is effected upon less than 90 days'
prior written notice to the Company of such termination (hereinafter, a "Proper
Employee Termination"), then the Company shall have the exclusive and

                                       7
<PAGE>

irrevocable right and option, exercisable in the sole judgment and discretion of
the Board, to purchase and acquire from Employee, or from Employee's Estate, all
of Employee's shares of Company capital stock ("Stock") (if any) and all of
Employee's options or rights to purchase Stock ("Options") (if any) in
accordance with the terms and conditions provided in this paragraph 7. Employee
or Employee's Estate hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to transfer
Employee's Stock and Employee's Options on the terms and conditions set forth in
this paragraph 7.

         (b) Purchase Price. The purchase price to be paid for any Stock to be
acquired under this paragraph 7 shall be the fair market value of such Stock as
of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding the date of death or
termination of employment as described in paragraph 7(a) hereof. The purchase
price to be paid for Employee's Options to be acquired under this paragraph 7
shall be the fair market value of the Stock for which Employee's Options are
exercisable (the "Vested Options" as of the last day of the calendar month
immediately preceding the date of death or termination of employment as
described paragraph 7(a) hereof), less an amount equal to the exercise price of
Employee's Options in respect of such Stock. In each case, the fair market value
of the Stock shall be determined in good faith by the Board (not taking into
account any discount for non-voting nature (if applicable), minority interest or
restriction on transferability) and, if Employee or Employee's Estate does not
object to such determination in a writing delivered to and received by the
Company within ten (10) business days of the Company's delivery of such
determination to such party, such Board' determination shall be conclusive and
binding upon Employee or Employee's Estate, as the case may be, for all purposes
hereunder. If Employee or Employee's Estate makes a timely (i.e., within the 10
business days) written objection to the determination of fair market value made
by the Board, the determination of such fair market value of the Stock shall be
submitted to an investment banking or valuation firm selected by the Board after
consultation with Employee or Employee's Estate (the "Primary Investment Firm"),
whose fees and expenses shall be shared equally by the Company, on the one hand,
and Employee or Employee's Estate, on the other hand. If Employee and the
Company agree in advance in writing to the selection of the Primary Investment
Firm, then such Primary Investment Firm's determination shall be conclusive and
binding upon Employee or Employee's Estate, as the case may be, for all purposes
hereunder. If Employee and the Company do not agree in advance in writing to the
selection of the Primary Investment Firm, then the Primary Investment Firm shall
determine the fair market value of the Stock promptly following its selection by
the Board; if, following such determination of fair market value by such Firm,
either the Company or Employee or Employee's Estate objects to such
determination in a writing delivered to the other party within ten (10) business
days of receipt thereof, the Company and Employee or Employee's Estate shall
mutually agree to a second investment banking or valuation firm (the "Secondary
Investment Firm"), who shall make a determination of such fair market value of
the Stock and whose fees and expenses shall be paid by the person objecting to
the determination made by the Primary Investment Firm. If such valuation by the
Secondary Investment Firm is procured, it shall be delivered to the other party,
and the average of the fair market values as determined by the Primary
Investment Firm and the Secondary Investment Firm shall be the fair market value
for purposes of this Paragraph 7 and shall be conclusive and binding on all
parties for all purposes hereof.

                                       8
<PAGE>

         (c) Upon termination of Employee for Cause, the Company shall have the
right and option to acquire Employee's Stock for the Net Book Value per share of
such Stock, based upon the Company's latest audited financial statements. All of
Employee's Options shall be terminated, expired, void and of no further force or
effect.

         (d) Employee must deliver stock certificates representing his Stock to
the Company within five business days of a demand in writing to such effect. If
Employee fails to so deliver the stock certificates, the Company may mail a
check for the purchase price or the net book value purchase price of such Stock
to Employee's last known address and cancel such Stock on the books and records
of the Company and such Stock shall have no further force or effect. In the case
of a negative net book value, no purchase price need be delivered before
canceling the Stock.

8.       COMPANY PROPERTY; INVENTIONS.

         (a) All records, designs, patents, business plans, financial
statements, manuals, memoranda, lists, and other property delivered to or
compiled by Employee by or on behalf of the Company or their representatives,
vendors, or customers which pertain to the business of the Company shall be and
remain the property of the Company, as the case may be, and be subject at all
times to their discretion and control. Likewise, all correspondence, reports,
records, charts, advertising materials, and other similar data pertaining to the
business, activities, or future plans of the Company which is collected by
Employee shall be delivered promptly to the Company without request by it upon
termination of Employee's employment.

         (b) Employee shall disclose promptly to the Company any and all
significant conceptions and ideas for inventions, improvements, and valuable
discoveries, whether patentable or not, which are conceived or made by Employee,
solely or jointly with another, during the period of employment, and which are
directly related to the business or activities of the Company and which Employee
conceives as a result of Employee's employment by the Company. Employee hereby
assigns and agrees to assign all of Employee's interests therein to the Company
or its nominee. Whenever requested to do so by the Company, Employee shall
execute any and all applications, assignments, or other instruments that the
Company shall deem necessary to apply for and obtain Letters Patent of the
United States or any foreign country or to otherwise protect the Company's
interest therein.

9.       CONFIDENTIALITY AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.

         (a) Acknowledgement. Employee acknowledges and agrees that in the
course of rendering services to the Company and its customers, Employee will
have access to and will become acquainted with confidential and proprietary
information about the professional, business and financial affairs of the
Company, its affiliates and its vendors, suppliers and customers, and that
Employee may have contributed to or may in the future contribute to such
information. Employee further recognizes that Employee is being employed as a
key employee, that the Company is engaged in a highly competitive business, and
that the success of the Company in the marketplace and business depends upon its
goodwill and reputation for integrity, quality and dependability. Employee

                                       9
<PAGE>

recognizes that in order to guard the legitimate interests of the Company it is
necessary for the Company to protect all such confidential and proprietary
information, goodwill and reputation.

         (b) Proprietary Information. In the course of Employee's service to the
Company, Employee may have access to confidential know-how, business documents
or information, marketing data, client lists and trade secrets which are
confidential. Such information shall hereinafter be called "Proprietary
Information" and shall include any and all items enumerated in the preceding
sentence which come within the scope of the business activities of the Company
as to which Employee has had or may have access, whether previously existing,
now existing or arising hereafter, whether or not conceived or developed by
others or by Employee alone or with others during the period of his service to
the Company, and whether or not conceived or developed during regular working
hours. "Proprietary Information" shall not include any information which is in
the public domain during the period of service by Employee or becomes public
thereafter, provided such information is not in the public domain as a
consequence of disclosure by Employee in violation of this Agreement.

         (c) Fiduciary Obligations. Employee agrees and acknowledges that the
Proprietary Information is of critical importance to the Company and a violation
of this Section 8 will seriously and irreparably impair and damage the Company's
business. Employee therefore agrees, while he is an employee of the Company and
at all times thereafter, to keep all Proprietary Information strictly
confidential.

         (d) Non-Disclosure. Except as required by law or order of any court or
governmental entity or in connection with the proper performance of his duties
hereunder, Employee shall not disclose, directly or indirectly (except as
required by law), any Proprietary Information to any person other than (a) the
Company, (b) persons who are authorized employees of the Company at the time of
such disclosure, (c) such other persons, including prospective investors or
lenders, to whom Employee has been instructed to make disclosure by the
Company's Board, or (d) Employee's counsel, so long as such counsel agrees to
keep all Proprietary Information confidential (in the case of clauses (b) and
(c), only to the extent required in the course of Employee's service to the
Company). Upon any termination of Employee's employment hereunder, Employee
shall deliver to the Company all notes, letters, documents, tapes, discs,
recorded data and records which may contain Proprietary Information which are
then in Employee's possession or control and shall not retain, use, or make any
copies, summaries or extracts thereof.

10. INDEMNIFICATION. In the event Employee is made a party to any threatened,
pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative, or investigative (other than an action by the Company against
Employee), by reason of the fact that Employee is or was performing services
under this Agreement, then the Company shall indemnify Employee against all
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts
paid in settlement, as actually and reasonably incurred by Employee in
connection therewith. In the event that both Employee and the Company are made a

                                       10
<PAGE>

party to the same third-party action, complaint, suit, or proceeding, the
Company agrees to engage competent legal representation, and Employee agrees to
use the same representation, provided that if counsel selected by the Company
shall have a conflict of interest that prevents such counsel from representing
Employee, Employee may engage separate counsel and the Company shall pay all
reasonable attorneys' fees of such separate counsel. Further, while Employee is
expected at all times to use Employee's best efforts to faithfully discharge his
duties under this Agreement, Employee cannot be held liable to the Company for
errors or omissions made in good faith where Employee has not exhibited gross,
willful and wanton negligence and misconduct or performed criminal and
fraudulent acts which materially damage the business of the Company.

11. REPRESENTATIONS OF EMPLOYEE. Employee hereby represents and warrants to the
Company that the execution of this Agreement by Employee and his employment by
the Company and the performance of Employee's duties hereunder will not violate
or be a breach of any agreement with a former employer, client, or any other
person or entity. Further, Employee agrees to indemnify the Company for any
claim, including but not limited to attorneys' fees and expenses of
investigation, by any such third party that such third party may now have or may
hereafter come to have against the Company based upon or arising out of any
noncompetition agreement, invention or secrecy agreement between Employee and
such third party which was in existence as of the date of this Agreement.

         Employee has and will continue to truthfully disclose to the Company
the following matters, whether occurring, at any time during the five (5) years
immediately preceding the date of this Agreement or at any time during the term
of this Agreement:

                           (1) any criminal complaint, indictment or criminal
         proceeding in which Employee is named as a defendant;

                           (2) any allegation, investigation, or proceeding,
         whether administrative, civil or criminal, against Employee by any
         licensing authority or industry association; and

                           (3) any allegation, investigation or proceeding,
         whether administrative, civil, or criminal, against Employee for
         violating professional ethics or standards, or engaging in illegal,
         immoral or other misconduct (of any nature or degree), relating to the
         business of the Company.

successor, assign or purchaser. In addition, and in any event, the Company may,

<PAGE>

                            OFFICE BUILDING NET LEASE

1. LEASED PREMISES: Subject to and upon the terms, provisions, covenants and
conditions hereinafter stated, and each in consideration of the duties,
covenant, and obligations of the other hereunder, LANDLORD does hereby lease,
demise and let to TENANT; and TENANT does hereby lease, demise and let from
LANDLORD those Leased Premises as reflected on the floor and site plans attached
hereto as Exhibit "A" and made a part hereof.

         The size of the Leased Premises and of the Building as set forth in the
Definitions are hereby stipulated and agreed to whether the same should be more
or less as a result of variations resulting from actual construction and
completion of the Leased Premises and of the Building. The TENANT acknowledges
that the LANDLORD has made no representations with regard to the actual square
footage.

         Additionally, by its acceptance of possession of the Premises, and the
commencement of rent payments by TENANT, TENANT hereby confirms that it has had
a full and adequate opportunity to inspect, examine and measure the Leased
Premises and the Building. As a result, TENANT hereby irrevocably stipulates to
the square footage of the Leased Premises set forth in paragraph (a) of the
Definitions herein. TENANT also stipulates to the square footage of the Building
set forth in paragraph (e) of the Definitions. TENANT further stipulates that
such square footage calculations shall not be subject to question,
interpretation, or modification either during or after the Term hereof, or any
extensions or renewals of this Lease, notwithstanding any subsequently
discovered discrepancy, regardless of kind or amount, between the actual square
footage and the square footage calculations set forth in paragraphs (a) and (e)
of the Definitions.

         By occupying the Premises, TENANT shall be conclusively deemed to have
accepted the same as complying fully with LANDLORD'S covenants and obligations
to deliver the Premises as required hereby, subject to LANDLORD punch list items
which shall be completed within a reasonable period subject to availability of
materials and labor.

2. TERM: This Lease shall be for the Term herein previously defined unless
sooner terminated or extended as provided herein. If LANDLORD is unable to give
possession of the Leased Premises on the date of the commencement of the
aforesaid Lease Term by reason of the holding over of any prior tenant or
tenants or for any other reason, an abatement or diminution of the rent to be
paid hereunder shall be allowed TENANT under such circumstances until possession
is given to TENANT; but nothing herein shall operate to extend the initial Lease
Term beyond the agreed expiration date, and said abatement in rent shall be the
full extent of LANDLORD's liability to TENANT for any loss or damage to TENANT
because of said delay in obtaining possession of the Premises. There shall be no
delay in the commencement of the Term of this Lease nor shall there be any
abatement or diminution of the rent to be paid hereunder where TENANT fails to
occupy the Premises upon the Commencement Date, or in the event that LANDLORD
shall be delayed in substantially completing such work within the Leased
Premises as a result of:

         a.       TENANT's failure to promptly furnish working drawings and
                  plans as may be required to be provided by TENANT; or
         b.       TENANT's failure to approve cost estimates or other items
                  requiring TENANT's approval within one (1) week of receipt
                  from LANDLORD; or

         c.       TENANT's failure to promptly select materials, finishes, or
                  installation; or
         d.       TENANT's changes in plans (notwithstanding LANDLORD's approval
                  of any such changes); or
         e.       Any other act of omission by TENANT or its agents,  or failure
                  to promptly  make other  decisions
                  necessary to the preparation of the Leased Premises for
                  occupancy; or
         f.       TENANT's failure to obtain any permits and inspections
                  required to be obtained by TENANT; or
         g.       TENANT's failure to obtain an occupational license.

         The commencement of the Term and the payment of rent shall not be
affected, delayed or deferred on account of any of the foregoing. For the

<PAGE>

purposes of this paragraph, the Leased Premises shall be deemed substantially
completed and ready for occupancy by TENANT (subject to the issuance of any
required certificate of occupancy) when LANDLORD's supervising architect
certifies that the work required of LANDLORD, if any, has been substantially
completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications.

         Taking possession of the Leased Premises by TENANT shall be conclusive
evidence as against TENANT that the Leased Premises were in good and
satisfactory condition, completed in accordance with the approved plans, when
possession was so taken. If TENANT, with LANDLORD's consent, shall occupy the
Leased Premises prior to the beginning of the Lease Term as specified
hereinabove, all provisions of this Lease shall be in full force and effect
commencing upon such occupancy; and rent for such period shall be paid by TENANT
at the same rate herein specified unless otherwise provided herein.

                  Provided that TENANT is not then in default in the performance
of any provision of this Lease, nor has it been in default during the previous
six months, the TENANT shall have the option to renew this Lease for one
additional term of Five (5) years commencing at the expiration of the initial
Lease Term. All of the terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply during the
renewal term. Base Rental during the first year of the renewal term of this
Lease shall be calculated based upon the rate of $15.07 per square foot.
Thereafter, the Base Rental shall increase at the rate of three (3%) percent
annually during the renewal term. This option to renew shall be exercised by
written notice given to LANDLORD not less than 120 days prior to the expiration
of the initial Lease Term. If notice is not given in the manner provided herein
within the time specified, this option shall expire.

3. BASE RENTAL: TENANT agrees to pay LANDLORD the Base Rental in advance,
without prior demand or any abatement, deduction or set-off, in monthly
installments on the first day of each and every month during the Term. If the
Lease Term commences on any day of a month except for the first day, TENANT
shall pay LANDLORD Base Rental as provided for herein for such commencement
month on a prorated basis (such proration to be based on the actual number days
in the commencement month); and the first month's rent paid by TENANT, if any,
upon execution of this Lease shall apply and be credited to the next full
month's rent due hereunder. Base Rental for any partial month of occupancy at
the end of the Term of this Lease shall be prorated, such proration to be based
on the actual number of days in the partial month. Rent is payable at LANDLORD's
office at 2860 Pershing Street, Hollywood, Florida 33020 unless LANDLORD
notifies TENANT otherwise.

         The Base Rental does not include electricity, telephone service or any
utilities (other than water and sewer) which serve the Premises or accommodate
the use of the Premises by TENANT. Telephone service, janitorial service to the
Leased Premises and interior maintenance shall be the TENANT's separate
responsibility.

         In addition to Base Rental, TENANT shall and hereby agrees to pay to
LANDLORD each month a sum equal to any sales tax, tax on rentals, and any other
charges, taxes and/or impositions now in existence or hereafter imposed based
upon the privilege of renting the space leased hereunder or upon the amount of
rentals collected therefor. However, nothing herein shall be taken to require
TENANT to pay any part of any federal and state taxes on income imposed upon
LANDLORD.

         If TENANT shall fail to pay any installment of Base Rental, or any item
of additional rent within ten (10) days after its due date, such unpaid amounts
shall bear interest from the due date thereof to the date of payment at a rate
which shall be eighteen percent (18%) per annum, or the maximum rate permitted
by applicable usury laws if such rate is different from eighteen (18%) percent
per annum. In addition thereto, if TENANT shall fail to pay any installment of
Base Rental, or any item of additional rent within five (5) days of written
notice from LANDLORD of non-payment, then TENANT shall also pay to LANDLORD a
late payment service charge ("Late Charge") contributing to administrative and
overhead expenses equal to five cents (5(cent)) per each dollar so overdue. In
addition thereto, if any check tendered by TENANT to LANDLORD is returned unpaid
for any reason, then TENANT shall also pay to LANDLORD a Returned Check Charge
of $50.00 contributing to administrative and overhead expenses and bank charges.
The failure of TENANT to pay such Returned Check Charge within five (5) days
after being notified of the returned check shall constitute a default under this
Lease. The provisions herein for the payment of the Late or Returned Check
Charge shall not be construed to represent interest but are intended to
reimburse LANDLORD for its overhead and expense so incurred and shall not be
construed to extend the date for payment of any sums required to be paid by

                                       2
<PAGE>

TENANT hereunder or to relieve TENANT of its obligation to pay all such sums at
the time or time herein stipulated. Interest, Late Charges and Returned Check
Charges are considered additional rent.

4.       ADDITIONAL RENT:

         A. TENANT shall pay to LANDLORD as additional rent TENANT's
Proportionate Share of the Operating Expenses of the Building as provided

Expenses for the then current calendar year and TENANT shall pay such sum in

shall submit to TENANT a statement showing the actual amount which should have

year, the amount thereof actually paid during that year by TENANT and the amount
of the resulting balance due thereon, or overpayment thereof, as the case may

overpayment found to be owing to TENANT against TENANT's Proportionate Share of
increases in Operating Expenses for the then current calendar year (and future
calendar years, if necessary) upon the resolution of said objection or, if at
the time of the resolution of said objection, the Lease Term has expired,

LANDLORD agrees to maintain accounting books and records reflecting Operating
Expenses of the Building in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.

         Additional rent, due by reason of the provisions of this Subparagraph
4A for the final months of this Lease, is due and payable even though it may not
be calculated until subsequent to the termination date of the Lease; the
Operating Expenses for the calendar year during which the Lease terminates shall
be prorated according to that portion of said calendar year that this Lease was
actually in effect. TENANT expressly agrees that LANDLORD, at LANDLORD's sole
discretion, may apply the Security Deposit specified in Paragraph 7 hereof, if
any, in full or partial satisfaction of any additional rent due for the final
months of this Lease by reason of the provisions of this Subparagraph 4A. If
said Security Deposit is greater than the amount of any such additional rent,
and there are no other sums or amount owed LANDLORD by TENANT by reason of any
other terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of this Lease, then LANDLORD
shall refund the balance of said Security Deposit to TENANT as provided in
Paragraph 7 hereof. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to relieve
TENANT, or imply that TENANT is relieved of the liability for or the obligation
to pay any additional rent due for the final months of this Lease by reason of
the provisions of this Paragraph 4A if said Security Deposit is less than such
additional rent; nor shall LANDLORD be required to first apply said Security
Deposit to such additional rent if there are any other sums or amounts owed
LANDLORD by TENANT by reason of any other terms, provisions, covenants or
conditions of this Lease.

         B. TENANT shall pay to LANDLORD, as additional rent, TENANT's
Proportionate Share of the Impositions for each calendar year, if any.

         The term "Impositions" as used herein shall mean all impositions, tax
assessments (special or otherwise), water and sewer assessments and other
governmental liens or charges of any and every kind, nature and sort whatsoever,
ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, and substitutes therefore,
including all taxes whatsoever (except only those taxes of the following
categories: any inheritance, estate, succession, transfer, gift or income taxes
imposed upon the LANDLORD) attributable in any manner to the Building, the land
on which the Building is located or the rents (however the term may be defined)
receivable therefrom, or any part thereof, or any use thereon, or any facility
located therein or used in conjunction therewith or any charge of other payment
required to be paid to any governmental authority, whether or not any of the
foregoing shall be designated "real estate tax", "sales tax", "rental tax",
"excise tax", "business tax", or designated in any other manner.

         LANDLORD shall notify TENANT at the inception of the Lease and after
the end of each calendar year during the Term hereof of the amount which
LANDLORD estimates (as evidenced by budgets prepared by or on behalf of
LANDLORD) shall be the amount of TENANT's Proportionate Share of Impositions for
the then current calendar year; and TENANT shall pay such sum to LANDLORD in
equal monthly installments during the balance of said calendar year, in advance
on the first day of each month commencing on the first day of the first month
following TENANT's receipt of such notification. Following the date on which
LANDLORD receives a tax bill or statement showing what the actual Impositions
are with respect to each calendar year, LANDLORD may submit to TENANT a
statement showing the actual amount to be paid by TENANT in the year in question
with respect to Impositions for such year, the amount thereof actually paid by
TENANT and the amount of the resulting balance due thereon, or overpayment
thereof, as the case may be. Any balance shown to be due pursuant to said
statement shall be paid by TENANT to LANDLORD within ten (10) days following
TENANT's receipt thereof and any overpayment shall be immediately credited
against TENANT's obligation to pay such additional rent in connection with
increased Impositions in later years, or, if no such future obligation exists,
be immediately refunded to TENANT.

         Additional rent, due by reason of the provisions of this Subparagraph
4B for the final months of this Lease, shall be payable even though the amount
thereof is not determinable until subsequent to the termination of the Lease;
the Impositions for the calendar year during which the Lease terminates shall be
prorated according to that portion of said calendar year that this Lease was
actually in effect. TENANT expressly agrees that LANDLORD at LANDLORD's sole
discretion, may apply the Security Deposit specified in Paragraph 5 hereof, if
any, in full or partial satisfaction of any additional rent due for the final
months of this Lease by reason of the provisions of this Paragraph 4B. If said
Security Deposit is greater than the amount of such additional rent and there

                                       7
<PAGE>

are no other sums or amounts owed LANDLORD by TENANT by reason of any other
terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of this Lease, then LANDLORD shall
refund the balance of said Security Deposit to TENANT as provided in Paragraph 5
hereof. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to relieve TENANT, or imply
that TENANT is relieved of the liability for or the obligation to pay any
additional rent due for the final months of this Lease by reason of the
provisions of this Paragraph 4B if said Security Deposit is less than such
additional rent; nor shall LANDLORD be required to first apply said Security
Deposit to such additional rent if there are any other sums or amounts owed
LANDLORD by TENANT by reason of any of the terms, provisions, covenants, or
conditions of this Lease.

         C. It is the intention of the parties hereto to provide that TENANT
shall pay in advance of their due date TENANT's Proportionate Share of Operating
Expenses and Impositions and to share in reduction only by category to the end
that an increase in Operating Expenses shall not be offset by a decrease in
Impositions and vice versa. In no event shall the Base Rental be reduced by
reason of decreases in Operating Expenses and/or Impositions. This Paragraph
shall survive the termination of the Lease.

5. SECURITY DEPOSIT: The Security Deposit shall be retained by LANDLORD as
security for the payment by TENANT of the rents and all other payments herein
agreed to be paid by TENANT and for the faithful performance by TENANT of the
terms, provisions, covenant and conditions of this Lease. It is agreed that
LANDLORD, at LANDLORD's option may, at the time of any default by TENANT under
any of the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of the Lease, apply said
sum or any part thereof toward the payment of the rents and all other sums
payable by TENANT under this Lease, and towards the performance of and every one
of TENANT's covenants under this Lease, but such covenants and TENANT's
liability under this Lease shall thereby be discharged only pro tanto, that
TENANT shall remain liable for and shall pay within ten (10) days after demand
by LANDLORD any amounts that such sum shall be insufficient to pay; that
LANDLORD may exhaust any and all rights and remedies against TENANT before
resorting to said sum, but nothing herein contained shall require or be deemed
to require LANDLORD to do so; that, in the event this deposit shall not be
utilized for any such purposes, then such deposit shall be returned by LANDLORD
to TENANT within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the Term of this
Lease (and the return of the keys to the LANDLORD)or the determination and
payment of the amount due under Paragraph 4 of this Lease, if any, whichever
occurs later. The TENANT shall not attempt to apply the security deposit to
rent. Any attempt to hold back rent payments or any other payments due to
LANDLORD under this Lease by directing the LANDLORD to apply all or part of the
security deposit to rent shall be deemed, at the option of LANDLORD, a default
in this Lease. The LANDLORD shall not be required to pay TENANT any interest on
said Security Deposit. The LANDLORD may commingle the security deposit with its
own funds.

6. USE: TENANT shall use and occupy the Leased Premises for the use or purpose

the Leased Premises are a part, which injury shall be caused or suffered by the
TENANT or its agents, employees or invitees. The TENANT further covenants not to
conduct any business or permit any act or thing contrary to or in violation of
the laws of the United States of America, or the State of Florida, or of the
Ordinances of the City of Dania Beach, County of Broward, in or about said

8. LANDLORD CONTROLLED AREAS: All automobile parking areas, driveways, entrances
and exits thereto, common areas, truck ways, loading areas, pedestrian walkways
and ramps, landscaped areas, corridors, and other areas and improvements
provided by LANDLORD for the general use, in common, of tenants, their officers,
agents, employees, servants, invitees, licensees, visitors, patrons and
customers shall be at all times subject to the exclusive control and management
of LANDLORD; and LANDLORD shall have the right from time to time to establish,
modify and enforce rules and regulations with respect to all facilities and
areas and improvements; from time to time to change the area, level and location
and arrangement of parking areas and other facilities hereinabove referred to;
to restrict parking by and to tenants, their officers, agents, invitees,
employees, servants, licensees, visitors, patrons and customers, to temporarily
close all or any portion of said areas or facilities to discourage non-tenant
parking, and to do and perform such other acts in and to said areas and
improvements as, in the sole judgement of LANDLORD, LANDLORD shall determine to
be advisable with a view to the improvement of the convenience and use thereof
by tenants, their officers, agents, employees, servants, invitees, visitors,
patrons, licensees and customers. LANDLORD shall operate and maintain the common
areas and other facilities referred to in such reasonable manner as LANDLORD
shall determine from time to time. Without limiting the scope of such
discretion, LANDLORD shall have the full right and authority to make and enforce
all rules and regulations pertaining to and necessary for the proper operation
and maintenance of the parking area and/or common areas and other facilities.
Reference in this paragraph to parking area and/or facilities shall in no way be
construed as giving TENANT hereunder any rights and/or privileges in connection
with such parking areas and/or facilities unless such rights and/or privileges
are expressly set forth in this Lease.

9. RULES AND REGULATIONS: TENANT agrees to comply with all rules and regulations
the LANDLORD may adopt from time to time for operation of the Building and
parking facilities and for the protection and welfare of the Building and
parking facilities, and the tenants, visitors and occupants of the Building. The
present rules and regulations, which TENANT hereby agrees to comply with,
entitled "Rules and Regulations" are attached hereto and are by this reference
incorporated herein. Any future rules and regulations adopted from time to time
by LANDLORD shall become a part of the Lease, and TENANT hereby agrees to comply
with the same upon delivery of a copy thereof to TENANT providing the same do
not materially deprive TENANT of its rights established under this Lease.

10. INSPECTION OF PREMISES: Prior to the TENANT'S taking possession of the
Leased Premises, the TENANT shall have fully inspected the Leased Premises and
accepted the Leased Premises in their then existing "AS-IS" condition. Such
inspection shall encompass all physical facts which are deemed by the TENANT to
be relevant and material, and the taking of possession shall be an acceptance of
the Leased Premises.

11. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR: LANDLORD shall maintain in good order and repair the
Building (excluding repairs to be made by TENANT hereunder), including the
public areas, parking areas, landscape areas, and the structure itself,
including the roof, foundations, exterior walls of the Premises and the
Building, all structural members of the Building and all underground utility
lines serving the Building. Provided, however, the cost of any repairs or
maintenance to the foregoing necessitated by the gross negligence or intentional
act of TENANT or its agents, contractors, employees or invitees shall be
reimbursed by TENANT to LANDLORD upon demand as additional rent.

         At its sole cost, TENANT shall maintain in good repair and clean and
orderly condition, that portion of the Premises within the demising walls
thereof, including all interior and exterior walls, floors, ceiling, all doors,
windows, glass, electrical, plumbing, mechanical and HVAC systems and including
any systems or other equipment below the floor or above the ceiling that was
installed for or by TENANT. TENANT's maintenance obligation shall extend to all
improvements and contents within the Premises. LANDLORD shall assign to TENANT
any warranty rights it may have as to the HVAC and other systems serving the
Premises. TENANT shall contract for, in its own name, and shall pay for a
qualified service contractor to inspect, adjust, clean and repair heating,
ventilating and air conditioning equipment, including changing filters on a
quarterly basis.

12.      INITIAL IMPROVEMENTS AND SUBSEQUENT ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS:

         At the commencement of the Term of this Lease LANDLORD shall deliver
the Premises to the TENANT with the improvements described in Exhibit "A" which
shall be constructed, unless otherwise noted on Exhibit "A", by LANDLORD at
LANDLORD'S expense and such expense shall not be charged, in any manner, to
TENANT as an Operating Expense. LANDLORD shall not be responsible for any costs
or allowances towards the cost of any improvements that TENANT makes to the
Leased Premises unless specifically provided for in this Lease.

         TENANT shall obtain LANDLORD'S prior written consent before making any
structural alterations, improvements or modifications to or which affect the
Leased Premises and TENANT shall furnish copies of the plans to LANDLORD for
LANDLORD'S consideration and approval prior to commencing any work for any
structural improvements, alterations or modifications. All improvements,
alterations and modifications to the Premises by TENANT shall be undertaken in
accordance with all applicable building codes and the requirements of the
Americans with Disabilities Act. The approval by LANDLORD of the plans and
specifications shall not constitute the assumption of any liability on the part
of LANDLORD for their compliance or conformity with applicable building codes
and the requirements of this Lease or for their accuracy, and TENANT shall be
solely responsible for such plans and specifications. Such alterations,
improvements and additions to the Premises by TENANT shall be done in a good
workmanlike manner using first-quality materials. Any structural alterations,
improvements or modifications made by TENANT, shall, at LANDLORD's option and
upon written notice to TENANT, be removed by TENANT at the termination of the
Lease at TENANT's expense and the Premises shall be restored by TENANT to their
original structural condition as of the commencement of the Lease.

         TENANT shall conduct any work done to the Leased Premises in such a
manner as to maintain harmonious labor relations and not to adversely affect any
warranties pertaining to the existing premises. Prior to commencement of any
structural work, TENANT shall submit to LANDLORD copies of all necessary permits
and approved plans. LANDLORD reserves the right to have final approval of the
contractors and plans used by TENANT to effect any structural modifications,
alterations or improvements to the Leased Premises.

         TENANT, at its sole cost, may make non-structural alterations or
non-structural modifications or additions within the Premises subject to the
following conditions:

         a. TENANT shall give LANDLORD prior written notice of its intention to
make such alterations or additions or modifications; and

         b. LANDLORD reserves the right to approve the plans and specifications
for such alterations, additions or modifications in advance and such approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and

         c. TENANT shall only use licensed contractors who are approved by
LANDLORD in advance, and such contractors shall be first required to furnish
evidence of insurance coverage, including public liability, workers
compensation, and automobile liability coverage, as well as any other coverage
reasonably required by LANDLORD. The limits of such coverage shall be no less
than those required of TENANT. TENANT shall obtain any required permits before
commencing the work and shall cause such work to be performed in accordance with
all applicable building codes and other governmental regulations and to be
completed and paid for in full and shall discharge any and all liens or claims
of lien arising therefrom, or if TENANT disputes any such lien or claim of lien,
TENANT shall post a bond in accordance with applicable law to remove the lien
from the Premises within ten (10) days.

         All alterations, additions, modifications or improvements, whether
temporary or permanent in character, made in or upon the Premises by LANDLORD or
TENANT shall be LANDLORD'S property and at the end of the Term hereof shall
remain in or upon the Premises without compensation to TENANT. All of TENANT'S
furniture, movable trade fixtures, and equipment not attached to the Premises
may be removed by TENANT at the termination of this Lease, if TENANT so elects,
and shall be so removed, if required by LANDLORD, and, if not so removed, shall,
at the option of LANDLORD, become the property of LANDLORD. TENANT shall repair
any damage to the Premises occasioned by the removal of its furniture and
movable fixtures and equipment.

                                       11
<PAGE>

13. MECHANIC'S LIENS: TENANT further agrees that TENANT shall pay all liens of
contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen, and other items
of like character, and shall indemnify LANDLORD against all expenses, costs, and
charges, including bond premiums for release or transfer of liens and attorney's
fees and costs reasonably incurred in and about the defense of any suit in
discharging the said Premises or any part thereof from any liens, judgements, or
encumbrances caused or suffered by TENANT. In the event any such lien shall be
made or filed, TENANT shall bond against or discharge the same within ten (10)
days after the same has been made or filed. It is understood and agreed between
the parties hereto that the expenses, costs and charges above referred to shall
be considered as rent due and shall be included in any lien for rent.

         TENANT shall not have any authority to create any liens for labor,
materials or improvements on LANDLORD's interest in the Leased Premises, and
TENANT shall place all persons contracting with TENANT for the destruction or
removal of any facilities or other improvements or for the erection,
installation, alteration, or repair of any facilities or other improvements on
or about the Leased Premises, and all materialmen, suppliers, contractors,
subcontractors, mechanics, and laborers on notice that they must look only to
TENANT and to TENANT's interest in the Leased Premises to secure the payment of
any charges for work done or material furnished at the request or instruction of
TENANT or any party contracting with or through the TENANT. The TENANT shall not
be deemed to be the agent of the LANDLORD, so as to confer upon a laborer
bestowing labor upon the Leased Premises, or upon a materialman who furnishes
material incorporated in the construction of improvements upon the Leased
Premises, a mechanics' lien upon the LANDLORD'S estate under the provisions of
Chapter 713, Florida Statutes, and subsequent revisions thereof.

14. INDEMNITY AND DISCLAIMER: LANDLORD shall not be liable for and TENANT hereby
agrees to indemnify and hold LANDLORD, its officers, directors, agents and
employees harmless from any and all fines, suits, actions, damages, claims,
demands, liabilities, expenses, losses and causes of action arising out of (i)
the use or occupancy of the Leased Premises by TENANT, its agents, contractors
or employees or invitees; or (ii) TENANT's performance or nonperformance of any
term or condition of this Lease; or (iii) the use by TENANT of LANDLORD's
roadways and parking areas and utilities; or (iv) the violation by TENANT of any
ordinance, permit, order, law, regulation, statute, legislation, judgement or
decree including, but not limited to, the requirements of any law or regulation
on the environmental condition or hazardous materials on the Premises; or (v)
any other use by TENANT of the Premises or any common area or adjacent property,
including TENANT's presence, occupancy or use of the Premises prior to the
commencement date and after the termination of this Lease. The foregoing
indemnification by the TENANT of the LANDLORD shall be applicable regardless of
whether the claim is based upon TENANT's negligence, intentional tort, or
omissions arising during or after the term of this Lease or with respect to any
personal injury, loss of life, and damage to any property or to any person that
occurs on or about the Leased Premises, or the appurtenances thereto, or upon
the adjacent parking areas, sidewalks or streets caused by the negligence,
misconduct, error or omission or breach of this Lease by TENANT, its agents,
subtenants, contractors or employees or invitees or by any other person entering
the Premises under express or implied invitation of TENANT. This indemnification
shall also include any claims based upon the alleged negligence or fault of the
LANDLORD. The indemnities herein provided by TENANT to LANDLORD shall include an
indemnity against all costs, attorneys fees, expenses and liabilities incurred
in and about any such claim, the investigation thereof, or the defense of any
action, or proceeding, brought thereon, and from and against any orders,
judgments and decrees, which may be entered therein, which is caused by the acts
or neglect of the TENANT, its agents, subtenants, contractors or employees or
invitees.

         LANDLORD shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to
property or death or injury to any person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God,
public enemy, injunction, riot, strike, insurrection, war, court order,
requisition of other governmental body or authority, or of any matter beyond the
control of LANDLORD, or for any injury or damage or inconvenience which may
arise through repair or alteration of any part of the Leased Premises, or
failure to make repairs, or from water damage to the Premises or its contents,
or from any cause whatever. LANDLORD shall not be responsible to TENANT for any
damage, loss or injury suffered or incurred by TENANT with respect to or arising

                                       12
<PAGE>

out of any defects in the Premises or Building; defects in the cooling, heating,
electric, plumbing, or other applicable apparatus or systems or water discharge
in the Building; theft, mysterious disappearance or loss of any property of
TENANT, or water damage to the Leased Premises or its contents. Notwithstanding
any contrary provision of this Lease, TENANT shall look solely (to the extent
insurance coverage is not applicable or available) to the interest of LANDLORD
in the Building for the satisfaction of any judgement or the judicial process
requiring the payment of money as a result of any negligence or breach of this
Lease by LANDLORD and LANDLORD shall have no personal liability hereunder of any
kind.

         LANDLORD shall have no obligation to make an investigation of any
tenant, employee or proprietor thereof, or of any guest or any other person
entering the Leased Premises.

         It is expressly acknowledged by TENANT that this indemnification and
the provisions of this section of the Lease shall survive and continue to be
effective beyond the expiration or other termination of this Lease and shall
inure to the benefit of LANDLORD, its successors and assigns.

         For purposes of this section of the Lease the term "TENANT" includes
but is not limited to any act or omission of TENANT's agents, employees,
managers, visitors, contractors, subcontractors, TENANT's, subtenants, invitees,
licensees, customer, concessionaires or assignees.

15.      INSURANCE:

         A. TENANT shall on or before the date upon which TENANT first enters
the Premises for any purpose, obtain and keep in full force and effect at all
times thereafter while it is in possession or occupancy of the Leased Premises
the following insurance coverages in the stated amounts:

                  (i) Commercial General Liability Insurance insuring against
loss or liability in connection with bodily injury, death, or property damage or
destruction, occurring on or about the Premises, its appurtenances and adjoining
areas. Each policy shall be written on an occurrence basis and shall contain
coverage at least as broad as that provided under ISO CGL Form CG 0001. The
insurance coverage shall be in an initial amount of not less than $1,000,000 per
occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate, Personal and Advertising and
Products/Completed Operations. Each policy shall also include the broad form
comprehensive general liability endorsement or equivalent. The aforesaid
insurance policies shall name the LANDLORD as an additional insured and shall
provide that they may not be terminated or modified in any way that would
materially decrease the protection afforded LANDLORD under this Lease without 30
days advance notice to LANDLORD.

                  (ii) All risk property insurance, including but not limited to
fire and lightning, extended coverage (all risk of physical loss), theft,
vandalism and malicious mischief and flood (if required by LANDLORD, any
mortgagee or governmental authority) in an amount adequate to cover the full
replacement cost of TENANT's personal property, the property of others in the
care, custody or control of TENANT, and any improvements and betterments
installed by TENANT and loss of use (business interruption).

                  (iii) Workers compensation insurance in the amount required by
law and employer's liability coverage of a minimum of $500,000 per occurrence
and covering all persons employed, directly or indirectly by TENANT, in
connection with TENANT's business and TENANT's improvements and any repairs,
improvements, modifications or alterations made to the Premises by TENANT.

                  (iv) Business income and extra expense income covering those
risks referred to in subsection A(ii) on an actual loss sustained basis, but in
all events in an amount sufficient to prevent TENANT from being a co-insurer of
any loss covered under the applicable policy or policies.

                  (v) Automobile liability insurance to cover owned, non-owned,
and hired vehicles with a combined single limit of not less than $1,000,000.

                  (vi) Such other insurance as may be carried on the Leased
Premises and TENANT's operation thereof as may be reasonably required by
LANDLORD from time to time.

                                       13
<PAGE>

         B. Except for work to be performed by LANDLORD, before undertaking any
alterations, additions, modifications or improvements to the Premises, TENANT
shall obtain and maintain at its expense, or TENANT shall require any contractor
performing work on the Premises to obtain and maintain at no expense to
LANDLORD, in addition to workers compensation insurance required by law,
commercial general liability insurance (including contractor's liability
coverage, contractual liability coverage, completed operations coverage, broad
form property damage coverage and contractor's protective liability) written on
an occurrence basis with limits of not less than $1,000,000. The contractor's
general liability insurance shall cover claims arising out of (i) the general
contractor's operations; (ii) acts of independent contractors; (iii)
products/completed operations; (iv) liability assumed under contract; (v)
explosion, collapse and underground damage hazards, when applicable; and (vi)
owned/non-owned/hired vehicles.

         C. All insurance policies shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to
LANDLORD and written with insurance companies reasonably satisfactory to
LANDLORD having a "Best's" rating of at least "A-X" and authorized to engage in
business in Florida. The coverage afforded by such insurance shall in no way
limit or diminish TENANT's liability hereunder. If TENANT fails to obtain and
provide any or all of the aforesaid insurance, then LANDLORD may, (but shall not
be required to) purchase such insurance on behalf of TENANT and TENANT shall, on
demand, reimburse LANDLORD for the cost of such insurance together with interest
thereof (from the date on which LANDLORD paid such cost to the date on which
TENANT reimburses LANDLORD therefore) at the maximum rate permitted by law and
same shall constitute additional rent.

         D. The TENANT shall deliver to the LANDLORD an insurance certificate as
set forth above showing the LANDLORD as a named additional insured prior to its
entry onto the Leased Premises and shall, on each anniversary date of this
Lease, give evidence of the existence of the insurance required by this Lease
and that same is in effect. The certificates shall include an acknowledgment
that the policies have been amended to provide thirty (30) days prior notice of
termination or material modification to LANDLORD.

         E. LANDLORD and TENANT each expressly, knowingly, and voluntarily waive
and release any claims that they may have against the other or the other's
employees, agents, or contractors and against every other tenant in the Building
who shall have executed a waiver similar to this one for damage to its
properties and loss of business (specifically including loss of rent by LANDLORD
and business interruption by TENANT) as a result of the acts or omissions of the
other party or the other party's employees, agents, or contractors (specifically
including the negligence of either party or its employees, agents, or
contractors and the intentional misconduct of the employees, agents, or
contractors of either party), which claims are covered by the standard property
insurance coverages described in subsection A(ii) or other property insurance
that either party may carry at the time of an occurrence. LANDLORD and TENANT
shall each, on or before the date on which TENANT first enters the Premises for
any purpose, obtain and keep in full force and effect at all times thereafter a
waiver of subrogation from its insurer concerning the property, rent loss, and
business interruption insurance maintained by it for the Building and the
property located in the Building. This subsection shall not apply to claims for
personal injury or wrongful death.

         F. LANDLORD shall maintain fire and extended coverage insurance on the
Building and on the improvements and betterments to the Premises which were
either constructed or paid for by LANDLORD and are identified in Exhibit "A" to
this Lease, in an amount not less than 80% of the replacement cost of the
Building and such improvements and betterments and LANDLORD shall also maintain
commercial general liability insurance relating to the Building and its
appurtenances in an amount not less than $3 million per occurrence. In addition,
Landlord may, at its option, maintain coverages in excess of the limits set
forth in this subsection and additional coverages as specified in the definition
of Operating Expenses. The total cost of all insurance maintained by LANDLORD
under this subsection shall be included in Operating Expenses.

16. TENANT CHARGES: It is understood and agreed between the parties hereto that
any charges against TENANT by LANDLORD for services or for work done on the
Leased Premises by order of TENANT, or otherwise accruing under this Lease,
shall be considered as rent due and shall be included in any lien for rent.

17. PARKING: Pursuant to all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions
contained herein, during the Term of this Lease, TENANT shall be entitled to use

                                       14
<PAGE>

of the Parking Spaces, as defined. No commercial vehicles, trucks or
recreational vehicles shall be permitted to park in the parking areas. No
trailers or boats shall be permitted in the parking areas.

         TENANT agrees to hold LANDLORD harmless for damage to the vehicles or
personal property in vehicles that may occur while the vehicles are parked in
the parking areas of the Building.

18. SIGNS: LANDLORD shall have the sole right to install signs on the exterior
of the Leased Premises and on the Building. The LANDLORD shall, at TENANT's
expense, place TENANT's name on the exterior of the fixed glass door side panel
of the Leased Premises in a manner uniform with that of all other tenants. There
will be no directory of tenants. Subject to LANDLORD's prior written consent
which may be withheld in its sole discretion, no signs, door plaques,
advertisements, notices or information may be painted, posted, displayed, placed
or affixed in any manner to the exterior of the Leased Premises or on the
Building or on the property on which the Building is located by or for the
TENANT. TENANT may not place any signs, logos, advertisements, notices or other
information on the interior of the Leased Premises where the same is visible
from the outside of the Leased Premises through the glass. LANDLORD may at its
discretion change the Building's name or street address.

19. ESTOPPEL AGREEMENT: TENANT agrees that from time to time, upon not less than
seven (7) days prior request by LANDLORD, TENANT shall deliver to LANDLORD a
statement in writing certifying (a) that this Lease is unmodified and in full
force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the Lease as
modified is in full force and effect and stating the modifications); (b) the
dates to which the rent and other charges have been paid; and (c) that LANDLORD
is not in default under any provisions of this Lease, or, if in default, the
nature thereof in detail.

20. SUBORDINATION: If the Building and/or Leased Premises are any time subject
to a mortgage and/or deed of trust, and TENANT has received written notice from
the mortgagee of same, then in any instance in which TENANT gives notice to
LANDLORD alleging a default by LANDLORD hereunder, TENANT shall also
simultaneously give a copy of such notice to each LANDLORD's mortgagee; and each
LANDLORD's mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure or
remedy such default during the period that is permitted to LANDLORD hereunder,
plus an additional period of thirty (30) days, and TENANT shall accept such
curative or remedial action (if any) taken by LANDLORD's mortgagee with the same
effect as if such action had been taken by LANDLORD.

         This Lease shall at LANDLORD's option, which option may be exercised at
any time during the Lease Term, be subject and subordinate to any mortgage now
or hereafter encumbering the Building. This provision shall be self-operative
without the execution of any further instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
however, TENANT hereby agrees to execute any instruments which LANDLORD may deem
desirable to evidence the subordination of this Lease to any and all such
mortgages. Failure to execute a subordination agreement within seven (7) days
after request from LANDLORD shall be deemed a default hereunder. LANDLORD agrees
to provide TENANT with a non-disturbance agreement from LANDLORD's lender in the
form attached to this Lease as Exhibit "C".

21. ATTORNMENT: If the interest of LANDLORD under this Lease shall be
transferred voluntarily or by reason of foreclosure or other proceedings for
enforcement of any mortgage on the Leased Premises; TENANT shall be bound to
such transferee (herein sometimes called the "Purchaser") for the balance of the
Term hereof remaining, and any extensions or renewals thereof which may be
effective in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof with the same force
and effect as if the Purchaser were LANDLORD under this Lease, and TENANT does
hereby agree to attorn to the Purchaser, including the mortgagee under any such
mortgage if it be the Purchaser, as its said attornment to be effective and
self-operative without the execution of any further instruments upon the
Purchaser succeeding to the interest of the this Lease. The respective rights
and obligations of TENANT and the Purchaser upon such attornment, to the extent
of the then remaining balance of the Term of this Lease and any such extensions
and renewals, shall be and are the same as those set forth herein. In the event
of such transfer of LANDLORD's interests, LANDLORD shall be released and
relieved from all liability and responsibility thereafter accruing to TENANT

                                       15
<PAGE>

under the Lease or otherwise and LANDLORD's successor by acceptance of rent from
TENANT hereunder shall become liable and responsible to TENANT in respect to all
obligations of LANDLORD under this Lease thereafter accruing.

22. MORTGAGE, TRANSFER, ETC. BY LANDLORD: The LANDLORD reserves the right to
sell, purchase, mortgage, hypothecate and convey in any form the Leased
Premises, the Building and the real property upon which it is situate without
the permission of the TENANT. It is further agreed that the LANDLORD shall have
the right to assign this Lease and all rentals accruing hereunder without the
permission of the TENANT.

23. ASSIGNMENT: Without the written consent of LANDLORD first obtained in each
case, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, TENANT shall not,
voluntarily or involuntarily, whether by operation of law or otherwise, assign,
transfer, mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of this Lease or
sublease the Leased Premises or any part thereof or permit the Leased Premises
or any part thereof to be occupied by other persons.

         In lieu of consenting or not consenting, LANDLORD may, at its option,
(i) in the case of a proposed assignment of this Lease or a proposed subletting
of all of the Leased Premises, terminate this Lease in its entirety, or (ii) in
the case of a proposed subletting of a portion of the Leased Premises, terminate
this Lease as to that portion of the Premises which TENANT has proposed to
sublet. In the event LANDLORD elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to clause
(ii) of this paragraph, TENANT's obligation as to Base Rental and additional
rent shall be reduced in the same proportion that the Net Rentable Area of the
portion of the Premises which TENANT proposed to sublet bears to the total Net
Rentable Area of the Premises. If without LANDLORD's written consent having been
first obtained, this Lease is assigned or if the Leased Premises or any part
thereof is sublet or occupied by anybody other than TENANT, voluntarily or
involuntarily, whether by operation of law or otherwise, LANDLORD may (whether
or not there is a default under this Lease) collect or accept rent from the
assignee, subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected or accepted
to the rent herein reserved; but such collection or acceptance of rent shall not
be deemed a waiver of the foregoing covenants or the acceptance of the assignee,
subtenant or occupant as TENANT hereunder; nor shall it be construed as or
implied to be a release of TENANT from the further observance and performance by
TENANT of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions herein contained.

         In the event TENANT is a partnership, corporation or other firm or
entity, any transfer to one transferee of fifty (50%) percent or more of the
equity, right, title or interest herein, existing as of the date hereof, shall,
for the purposes hereof, be deemed to be an assignment. Fifty percent (50%) of
any sums or other economic considerations received by TENANT as a result of a
subletting, whether denominated rentals under the sublease or otherwise, which
exceed, in the aggregate, the total sums which TENANT is obligated to pay
LANDLORD under this Lease (prorated to reflect obligations applicable to that
portion of the Leased Premises subject to such sublease) shall be payable to
LANDLORD, immediately following TENANT's receipt of the same, under this Lease
without affecting or reducing any other obligations of TENANT hereunder and
shall constitute additional rent. Fifty percent (50%) of any sums or other
economic considerations received by TENANT as a result of an assignment of this
Lease, whether denominated rentals under the assignment or otherwise, shall be
payable to LANDLORD, immediately following TENANT's receipt of the same under
this Lease without affecting or reducing any other obligations of TENANT
hereunder and shall constitute additional rent.

         TENANT shall have no right of assignment or subletting if it is in
default under any of the terms or conditions of this Lease. Notwithstanding any
assignment of the Lease, or the subletting of the Premises, or any portion
thereof, TENANT shall continue to be liable for the performance of the terms,
conditions and covenants of this Lease including, but not limited to, the
payment of rent and any other charges imposed hereunder. Consent by LANDLORD to
one or more assignments or sublettings shall not operate as a waiver of
LANDLORD'S rights as to any subsequent assignments and sublettings. At
LANDLORD's option, in the event of default by any assignee or subtenant under
the terms, conditions or covenants of this Lease, LANDLORD may, at its option,
seek enforcement of any of its available remedies solely against the TENANT.

         If there are one or more assignments or sublettings by TENANT to which
LANDLORD consents, the parties understand and agree, anything to the contrary
notwithstanding that any and all renewal options to be exercised subsequent to

                                       16
<PAGE>

the date of such assignment or subletting are absolutely waived and terminated
at LANDLORD's sole option. Any request by TENANT to LANDLORD to permit a
subletting or assignment shall contain or be accompanied by a financial
statement of the proposed subtenant or assignee and such other information and
references as LANDLORD deems necessary to reasonably evaluate the acceptability
of such prospective subtenant or assignee. LANDLORD may deny an assignment or
subletting based strictly upon type of business or tenant mix.

         In the event of the transfer and assignment by LANDLORD of its interest
in this Lease and/or sale of the Building containing the Premises, LANDLORD
shall thereby be released from any further obligations hereunder, and TENANT
agrees to look solely to such successor in interest of the LANDLORD for
performance of such obligations.

24.      DESTRUCTION OR DAMAGE:

         A. If: (i) the Building shall be so damaged that substantial alteration
or reconstruction of the Building shall, in the LANDLORD's opinion, be required
(whether or not the Premises shall have been damaged by the casualty); or (ii)
any mortgagee of the Building should require that the insurance proceeds payable
as a result of a casualty be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt; or
(iii) there is any material loss to the Building that is not covered by
insurance required to be maintained by LANDLORD under this Lease; or (iv) the
Premises shall be partially damaged by casualty during the last two years of the
Lease Term, and the estimated cost of repair exceeds 10% of the Base Rental then
remaining to be paid by TENANT for the balance of the Lease Term; LANDLORD may,
within 120 days after the casualty, give notice to TENANT of LANDLORD's election
to terminate this Lease, and the balance of the Lease Term shall automatically
expire on the fifth day after the notice is delivered.

         B. If LANDLORD does not have the right to terminate this Lease under
Subsection A, or if LANDLORD has the right to terminate and does not elect to do
so, LANDLORD shall proceed with reasonable diligence to restore the Building and
the Premises to substantially the same condition they were in immediately before
the happening of the casualty. However, LANDLORD shall not be required to
restore any unleased Premises in the Building or any portion of TENANT's
property or the improvements made by TENANT and LANDLORD's restoration
obligations shall exist only to the extent that LANDLORD actually receives
insurance proceeds in the amount of the estimated cost of the restoration. When
repairs to the Premises that are LANDLORD's obligation under this section, if
any, have been completed by LANDLORD, TENANT shall complete the restoration or
replacement of the Premises, the improvements made by TENANT and all of TENANT's
property necessary to permit TENANT's re-occupancy of the Premises.

         C. Rent shall abate in proportion to the portion of the Premises not
useable by TENANT as a result of any casualty, as of the date on which the
Premises becomes unusable. LANDLORD shall not be liable to TENANT for any delay
in restoring the Premises or any inconvenience or annoyance to TENANT or injury
to TENANT's business resulting in any way from the damage or the repairs,
TENANT's sole remedy being the right to an abatement of rent.

         D. The rights provided to TENANT under this section are in lieu of and
override any rights that TENANT may have by statute.

25. EMINENT DOMAIN: If there shall be taken during the Term of this Lease, any
portion of the Leased Premises other than a part not interfering with
maintenance, operation or use of the Leased Premises, LANDLORD may elect to
terminate this Lease or to continue same in effect. If LANDLORD elects to
continue the Lease, the rental shall be reduced in proportion to the area of the
Leased Premises so taken and LANDLORD shall repair any damage to the Leased
Premises resulting from such taking. If any part of the Leased Premises is taken
by condemnation or eminent domain which renders the Premises unsuitable for its
intended use, TENANT may elect to terminate this Lease; or if any part of the
Leased Premises is so taken which does not render the Premises unsuitable for
its intended use, this Lease shall continue in effect; and the rental shall be
reduced in proportion to the area of the Leased Premises so taken and LANDLORD
shall repair any damage to the Leased Premises resulting from such taking. If
all of the Leased Premises is taken by condemnation or eminent domain, this
Lease shall terminate on the date possession is taken by the authority. All sums
awarded or agreed upon between LANDLORD and the condemning authority for the
taking of the interest of LANDLORD whether as damages or as compensation, and
whether for partial or total condemnation, shall be the sole property of

                                       17
<PAGE>

LANDLORD and TENANT shall not be entitled to any apportionment. If this Lease
should be terminated under any provisions of this paragraph, rental shall be
payable up to the date that possession is taken by the authority, and LANDLORD
shall refund to TENANT any prepaid unaccrued rent less any sum or amount then
owing by TENANT to LANDLORD.

26. NON-RECORDING OF LEASE: TENANT shall not record this Lease nor any
memorandum thereof in the Public Records of Broward County, Florida, and should
the same be recorded by the TENANT it shall constitute an irrevocable and
immediate default in the terms of this Lease permitting the LANDLORD to pursue
all of the remedies contained in this Lease or provided by statute. In addition
thereto, the LANDLORD shall be entitled to all consequential damages which may
occur as a result of having to remove the Lease from the public records of
Broward County, Florida, together with any and all consequential damages which
may occur to the title of the fee owner of the property. These expenses shall
include, but shall not be limited to, attorneys fees, accountants' fees,
surveying fees, recording fees, and any and all damages which may occur to
LANDLORD or the fee simple owner as a result of any cloud cast upon title to the
property affected by the recording of this Lease.

27.      DEFAULT:

         A. Events of Default. LANDLORD at its election may exercise any one or
more of the options referred to below upon the happening or at any time after
the happening of any one or more of the following events of default, to-wit:

                  (1) TENANT'S failure to pay the rents, or any other sums
payable hereunder for a period of three (3) days after written notice by
LANDLORD;

                  (2) TENANT'S failure to abide by any of the non-monetary terms
of this Lease and failing to cure any non-compliance noticed by LANDLORD which
specifies the TENANT'S failure to observe, keep, or perform any of the
non-monetary covenants, agreements or conditions of this Lease within ten (10)
days of said notice, unless the non-compliance is of such a nature that in
LANDLORD's sole determination it must be cued within a shorter period to avoid
substantial interference with the rights of LANDLORD or any other tenant(s) in
connection with the Leased Premises or the Building.

                  (3) Should the TENANT, at any time during the term of this
Lease, suffer or permit an involuntary or voluntary petition in bankruptcy to be
filed against it, or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for the TENANT's
property because of TENANT's insolvency, and the said appointment is not vacated
within thirty (30) days thereafter, or should the TENANT's leasehold interest be
levied on and the lien thereof not discharged within thirty (30) days after said
levy has been made, or should the TENANT fail to promptly make the necessary
returns and reports required of it by the State and Federal law, or should the
TENANT fail to promptly comply with all governmental regulations, local, State
and Federal;

                  (4) TENANT making an assignment for the benefit of creditors;

                  (5) A receiver or trustee being appointed for TENANT or a
substantial portion of TENANT's assets;

                  (6) TENANT's attempting to mortgage or pledge its interest
hereunder;

                  (7) TENANT's vacating or abandoning the Premises or ceasing
doing business therein;

                  (8) TENANT's interest under this Lease being sold without
LANDLORD's consent under execution, other legal process or by operation of law;

                  (9) TENANT's interest under this Lease being assigned, the
Premises or a portion thereof being sublet or transferred by operation of law
without LANDLORD's prior written consent;

                                       18
<PAGE>

                  (10) Should the TENANT, at any time, fail to abide by the
provisions of this Lease and should the TENANT suffer by way of legal remedy or
equitable remedy an injunction, either of a civil or criminal nature, or should
the TENANT fail to comply with safety regulations or fail to comply with any
governmental regulations so that it is necessary by process of law to terminate
or shut down TENANT's activities, then, subject to the provision of subparagraph
(2) above, the TENANT shall be in default of this Lease.

         B. Remedies upon Default. In the event of any of the foregoing
happenings, or any other default by TENANT, the LANDLORD, at its election, may
without further notice to the TENANT exercise any one or more of the following
options, the exercise of any of which shall not be deemed to preclude the
exercise of any others herein listed or otherwise provided by statute or general
law or in equity at the same time or in subsequent times or actions.

                  (1) Declare this Lease to be terminated and retake possession
of the Premises by eviction or otherwise for LANDLORD's own account and purposes
whereupon all right, title and interest of the TENANT in the Premises shall end;

                  (2) Terminate TENANT's right to possession under the Lease by
eviction or otherwise and retake possession of the Premises for the account of
TENANT and relet or attempt to relet the Premises on behalf of TENANT. LANDLORD
shall not be deemed to have thereby accepted a surrender of the Premises and
TENANT shall remain liable for all sums due under this Lease for the balance of
the Lease Term and for all damages suffered or costs incurred by LANDLORD
including agents or brokers fees to find a new tenant, damages to the Premises,
renovation and alteration expense and reasonable attorney's fees and costs in
recovering possession of the Premises and advising and protecting LANDLORD's
interests under the circumstances less the amount in good faith the LANDLORD may
recover from reletting the Premises;

                  (3) Accelerate and declare all remaining sums due from TENANT
for rent under this Lease through the end of the Lease Term to be immediately
due payable. LANDLORD may collect all remaining sums due by distress or
otherwise. In any judgment entered against the TENANT for accelerated rent, the
amount of accelerated rent shall be reduced to present money value based upon an
interest rate at the then "Prime Rate" less two (2%) percent. In the event
LANDLORD subsequently re-lets the Leased Premises for any portion of the Lease
Term, then TENANT shall be credited with the amount of any rent received by
LANDLORD through the end of the Lease Term against the sums owed by TENANT to
LANDLORD under any judgment for accelerated rent. Any judgment entered against
TENANT for accelerated rent shall include a provision for a future accounting in
the event of subsequently received rents.

         C. No re-entry or retaking of the Premises by LANDLORD shall be
construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease, unless a written
notice of such intention be given to TENANT. Nor shall pursuit of any remedy
herein provided constitute a forfeiture or waiver of sums due to LANDLORD
hereunder or any damages accruing to LANDLORD by reason of the violations of any
of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained. LANDLORD's acceptance
of any rent or other sums following any event of default hereunder shall not be
construed as LANDLORD's waiver of such event of default. No forbearance by
LANDLORD of action upon any violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions,
and covenants herein contained shall be deemed or construed to constitute a
waiver of the terms, provisions, and covenants herein contained. Forbearance by
LANDLORD to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an event of
default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any other
violation or default. Legal actions to recover for loss or damage that LANDLORD
may suffer by reason of termination of this Lease, recovery of possession or the
deficiency from any reletting as provided for above shall include the expenses
of repossession and any repairs or remodeling undertaken by LANDLORD following
repossession.

         D. The parties hereto agree that any and all suits for any and every
breach of this Lease shall be instituted and maintained only in State Courts for
Broward County, Florida and TENANT, whether or not a resident or doing business
in the State of Florida hereby submits itself to the jurisdiction of the State
of Florida and the courts of Broward County where venue shall lie, and LANDLORD
may effect service of process by any lawful means in order to confer in personam
jurisdiction in the courts of this state over TENANT.

                                       19
<PAGE>

         E. Time is of the essence in this Lease and in case TENANT shall fail
to perform the covenants on its part to be performed at the time fixed for the
performance of such respective covenants by the provisions of this Lease,
LANDLORD may declare TENANT to be in default of this Lease.

28. WAIVER OF DEFAULT: Failure of the LANDLORD to declare any default
immediately upon occurrence thereof, or delay in taking any action in connection
therewith, shall not waive such default; but LANDLORD shall have the right to
declare any such default at any time and take such action as might be lawful or
authorized hereunder, in law and/or in equity. Failure of the LANDLORD to insist
upon the strict performance of any of the covenants, conditions and agreements
of this Lease in any one or more instances, shall not be construed as a waiver
or relinquishment in the future of any such covenants, conditions and
agreements. No waiver by LANDLORD of a default by TENANT shall be implied, and
no express waiver by LANDLORD shall affect any default other than the default
specified in such waiver and that only for the time and extension therein
stated. No waiver of any term, provision, condition or covenant of this Lease by
LANDLORD shall be deemed to imply or constitute, a further waiver by LANDLORD of
any other term, provision, condition or covenant of this Lease.

         LANDLORD may, at its option, accept partial payments of Base Rental or
Additional Rent without waiving any rights concerning the existence of any
monetary or non-monetary default under this Lease, which default shall serve and
continue unaffected by the receipt of any such partial payment.

29. LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO PERFORM TENANT'S COVENANTS: If TENANT shall at any time
fail to pay any sums due under this Lease in accordance with the provisions of
this Lease, or to take out, pay for or maintain any insurance required by this
Lease to be maintained, or shall fail to make any other payment or perform any
other act on its part to be made or performed, then, LANDLORD, after ten (10)
days written notice to TENANT (or without notice in case of an emergency) and
without waiving or releasing TENANT from any obligation of TENANT contained in
this Lease, may (but shall be under no obligation to):

                  A. Pay any sum payable by TENANT pursuant to the provisions of
this Lease; or

                  B. Take out, pay for and maintain any insurance policy
required to be maintained by TENANT under this Lease; or

                  C. Make any other payment or perform any other act on TENANT'S
part to be made or performed as provided for in this Lease. LANDLORD may enter
upon the Leased Premises for such purpose and take all such action thereon as
may be reasonably necessary therefor without notice to the TENANT.

         All sums so paid by LANDLORD and all costs and expenses incurred by
LANDLORD in connection with the performance of any such act, together with
interest thereon at the rate of eighteen (18%) percent per annum from the date
of LANDLORD'S making of such payment shall constitute additional rent payable by
TENANT under this Lease and shall be paid by TENANT to LANDLORD on demand.
LANDLORD shall not be limited in the proof of any damages which LANDLORD may
claim against TENANT arising out of, or by reason of, TENANT'S failure to
provide and keep in force insurance as aforesaid to the amount of the insurance
premium or premiums not paid or incurred by TENANT and which would have been
payable upon such insurance, but LANDLORD shall also be entitled to recover as
damages for such breach, the uninsured amount of any loss.

30. RIGHT OF ENTRY: LANDLORD, or any of its agents, shall have the right to
enter the Leased Premises during all reasonable hours to examine the same,
prevent waste, or to make such repairs, additions or alterations as may be
deemed necessary for the safety, comfort, or preservation thereof, or to said
Building, or to exhibit said Leased Premises at any time within one hundred
eighty (180) days before the expiration of this Lease. Said right of entry shall
likewise exist for the purpose of removing placards, signs, fixtures,
alterations, or additions which do not conform to this Lease. All inspections
except for those required by an emergency shall be subject to reasonable prior
notice and conducted during normal business hours of TENANT.

                                       20
<PAGE>

31.      CONDITION OF PREMISES ON TERMINATION OF LEASE AND HOLDING OVER:

         TENANT agrees to surrender to LANDLORD, at the end of the Term of this
Lease and/or upon any cancellation of this Lease, said Leased Premises in as
good condition as said Leased Premises were at the beginning of the Term of this
Lease, ordinary wear and tear excepted. TENANT agrees that if TENANT does not
surrender said Leased Premises to LANDLORD at the end of the Term of this Lease,
then TENANT shall pay to LANDLORD double the amount of the current rental for
each month or portion thereof that TENANT holds over plus all damages that
LANDLORD may suffer on account of TENANT's failure to so surrender to LANDLORD
possession of said Leased Premises and shall indemnify and save LANDLORD
harmless from and against all claims made by any succeeding tenant of said
Leased Premises against LANDLORD on account of delay of LANDLORD in delivering
possession of said Leased Premises to said succeeding tenant so far as such
delay is occasioned by failure to so surrender said Leased Premises in
accordance herewith or otherwise.

         No receipt of money and acceptance by LANDLORD from TENANT after
termination of this Lease or the service of any notice of commencement of any
suit or final judgement for possession shall reinstate, continue or extend the
Term of this Lease or affect any such notice, demand, suit or judgement. No act
or thing done by LANDLORD or its agents during the Term hereby granted shall be
deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Leased Premises, and no agreement to
accept a surrender of the Leased Premises shall be valid unless it be made in
writing and subscribed by a duly authorized officer or agent of LANDLORD.

32. OCCUPANCY TAX: TENANT shall be responsible for and shall pay before
delinquency all municipal, county or state taxes assessed during the Term of
this Lease against any occupancy interest or personal property of any kind,
owned by or placed in, upon or about the Leased Premises by TENANT.

33. INTEREST ON PAST DUE SUMS: All sums of money required to be paid by the
TENANT to the LANDLORD shall bear interest from due date, or maturity thereof,
at the highest rate allowed by law until paid.

34. ATTORNEYS' FEES: If either party defaults in the performance of any of the
terms, provisions, covenants and conditions and by reason thereof and the other
party employs the services of an attorney to enforce performance of the
covenants, or to perform any service based upon a default under the Lease,
regardless of the initiation of court proceedings, then in any of said events,
the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and all
expenses and costs incurred by the prevailing party pertaining thereto and in
enforcement of any remedy (including costs and fees relating to any appeal and
in bankruptcy proceedings).

35. LITIGATION VENUE: All litigation between the parties hereto relating to this
Lease shall be instituted, maintained and prosecuted in the State Courts of
Broward County, Florida, having jurisdiction over the subject matter.

36. NO TRIAL BY JURY: It is mutually agreed by and between LANDLORD and TENANT
that the respective parties hereto shall, and they hereby do WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY
in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties
hereto against the other on any matters arising out of or in any way connected
with this Lease, the relationship of LANDLORD and TENANT, and TENANT's use or
occupancy of the Premises. TENANT further agrees that it shall not interpose any
counterclaims in a summary proceeding or in any action based upon non-payment of
rent or any other payment required of TENANT hereunder.

37. CROSS DEFAULT: If the term of any lease, other than this Lease, made by
TENANT for any other space in the Building shall be terminated or terminable
after the making of this Lease because of any default by TENANT under such other
lease, such default shall, ipso facto, constitute a default hereunder and
empower LANDLORD at LANDLORD's sole option, to any remedies with respect to this
Lease as herein provided in the event of default.

38. INVALIDITY OF PROVISION: If any term, provision, covenant or condition of
this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to
any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease or the

                                       21
<PAGE>

application of such term, provision, covenant or condition to persons or
circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable
shall not be affected thereby and each term, provision, covenant or condition of
this Lease shall be valid and be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by
law. This Lease shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Florida.

39. TIME OF ESSENCE: It is understood and agreed between the parties hereto that
time is of the essence of all the terms provisions, covenants and conditions of
this Lease.

40. QUIET ENJOYMENT: Upon payment by TENANT of the rents herein provided, and
upon the observance and performance of all terms, provisions, covenants and
conditions on TENANT's part to be observed and performed, TENANT shall, subject
to all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Lease,
peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the Leased Premises for the Term hereby
demised.

41. EFFECTIVE DATE: Submission of this instrument for examination does not
constitute an offer, right of first refusal, reservation of or option for the
Leased Premises or any other space or premises in, on or about the Building.
This instrument becomes effective as a Lease only upon execution and delivery by
both LANDLORD and TENANT.

42. NOTICE: Any notice given LANDLORD as provided for in this Lease or otherwise
shall be in writing and be addressed to LANDLORD at the address where rent is
paid and sent by certified mail-return receipt requested or hand delivered or
sent by overnight courier. Any notice to be given TENANT under the terms of this
Lease shall be in writing and shall be sent by certified mail return receipt

TENANT or sent by overnight courier. Notice shall be deemed to have been served
on the day given, if personally delivered; or upon receipt if by overnight
courier or by certified, first class, postage prepaid, return receipt requested
mail. Either party, from time to time, by written notice, may specify another
address to which subsequent notice shall be sent.

43. MISCELLANEOUS: The terms "LANDLORD" and "TENANT" as herein contained shall
include singular and/or plural, masculine, feminine and/or neuter, heirs,
successors, executors, administrators, personal representatives and/or assigns
wherever the context so requires or admits. The terms, provisions, covenants and
conditions of this Lease are expressed in the total language of this Lease
Agreement and the paragraph headings are solely for the convenience of the
reader and are not intended to be all inclusive. Any formally executed addendum
to or modification of this Lease shall be expressly deemed incorporated by
reference herein unless a contrary intention is clearly stated therein. The
terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions contained in this Lease shall apply
to, inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon the parties hereto, and upon
their respective successors in interest and legal representatives, except as
otherwise herein expressly provided. This Lease shall be deemed to have been
mutually drafted by the parties. Therefore, neither this Lease nor any section
hereof, amendment or addendum hereto shall be construed against any party due to
the fact that this Lease or any section hereof, amendment or addendum hereto may
have been primarily drafted by said party.

44. AGENCY DISCLOSURE: TENANT represents and warrants that it has dealt with no
broker, agent or other person in connection with this transaction and that no
broker, agent or other person brought about this transaction other than
LANDLORD's broker, Properties Group, Inc., for which LANDLORD shall be
responsible for any commission or fee. TENANT agrees to indemnify and hold
LANDLORD harmless from and against any claims by any other broker, agent or
other person claiming a commission or other form of compensation by virtue of
having dealt with TENANT with regard to this leasing transaction. The provisions
of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Lease.

45. FORCE MAJEURE: Neither LANDLORD nor TENANT shall be required to perform any
term, condition, or covenant in this Lease so long as such performance is
delayed or prevented by force majeure, which shall mean acts of God, labor
disputes (whether lawful or not), material or labor shortages, restrictions by
any governmental authority, civil riots, floods, and any other cause not
reasonably within the control of LANDLORD or TENANT and which by the exercise of
due diligence LANDLORD or TENANT is unable, wholly or in part, to prevent or
overcome. Lack of money shall not be deemed force majeure.

                                       22
<PAGE>

         Notwithstanding any other term herein contained, if the Commencement
date has not occurred on or before January 1, 2001 for any reason not
attributable to the fault of the TENANT, including by reason of any force
majeure described in this Section, then TENANT, upon written notice to LANDLORD
shall, at its option, be entitled to terminate this Lease and receive a refund
of all monies paid by it to LANDLORD, by way of deposit or otherwise,. upon
which this Lease shall be terminated and each party shall be released from any
and all claims against the other in connection with this Lease with the
exception of any claims related to TENANT's use or occupancy of the Temporary
Space which shall survive such termination.

46. CORPORATE TENANCY: If TENANT is a corporation, the undersigned officer of
TENANT hereby warrants and certifies to LANDLORD that TENANT is a corporation in
good standing and is authorized to do business in the State of Florida. The
undersigned officer of TENANT hereby further warrants and certifies to LANDLORD
that he or she, as such officer, is authorized and empowered to bind the
corporation to the terms of this Lease by his or her signature thereto.

47. RENT A SEPARATE COVENANT: TENANT shall not for any reason withhold or reduce
TENANT'S required payment of rent and other charges as provided in this Lease,
it being agreed that the obligations of LANDLORD hereunder are independent of
TENANT'S obligations.

48. USE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS AND INDEMNIFICATION: TENANT shall not cause or
permit any Hazardous Material to be generated, brought upon, kept, used,
disposed of or released on, in or about the Premises or the Building or the
property upon which the Building is located by TENANT, its agents, employees,
contractors or invitees. The TENANT irrevocably agrees that it will, at its sole
efforts and expense comply with all past, present and future laws, ordinances,
rules, regulations, orders, decrees or permits enacted or issued by any federal,
state, county or municipal governmental agency(s) or judicial body having
jurisdiction or control over environmental contamination or pollution with
respect to TENANT's use of the Leased Premises.

         If TENANT breaches this obligation, TENANT shall indemnify, defend and
hold LANDLORD harmless from any and all claims, judgements, damages, penalties,
fines, liens, costs, expenses, liabilities or losses (including, without
limitation, diminution in value of the Premises or the Building, damages for the
loss or restriction on use of rentable space or of any amenity of the Premises
or the Building, damages arising from any adverse impact on marketing of space,
and sums paid in settlement of claims, attorneys' fees, consultant fees and
expert fees) which arise during or after the Lease Term as a result of such
contamination. This indemnification of LANDLORD by TENANT includes, without
limitation, costs incurred in connection with any investigation of site
conditions or any clean-up, remedial, removal or restoration work required by
any federal, state or local governmental agency or political subdivision because
of Hazardous Material present in the soil or ground water, in the Premises or in
the Building.

         Without limiting the foregoing, if the presence of any Hazardous
Material on the Premises or in the Building caused by TENANT, its agents,
employees, contractors or invitees results in any contamination of the Premises
and/or the Building, TENANT shall promptly take all actions at its sole expense
as are necessary to return the Premises and/or the Building to the conditions
existing prior to the introduction of any such Hazardous Material; provided that
LANDLORD's approval of such actions shall first be obtained, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as such actions would not potentially
have any material adverse long-term or short-term effect on the Premises and/or
the Building. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease. As used herein, the term "Hazardous Material" means
such hazardous or toxic substance, pollutant, material or waste, including, but
not limited to, those substances, materials, and wastes listed in the United
States Department of Transportation Hazardous Materials Table (49 CFR 172.101)
or by the Environmental Protection Agency as hazardous substances (40 CFR Part
302) and amendments thereto, or such substances, materials and wastes that are
or become regulated or defined as such under any applicable local, state or
federal law and also includes oil. LANDLORD and its agents shall have the right,
but not the duty, to inspect the Premises at any time to determine whether
TENANT is complying with the terms of this Lease. If TENANT is not in compliance
with this Lease, LANDLORD shall have the right to immediately enter Premises to
remedy any contamination caused by TENANT's failure to comply notwithstanding
any other provision of this Lease. LANDLORD shall use its best efforts to
minimize interference with TENANT's business but shall not be liable for any

                                       23
<PAGE>

interference caused thereby. Any default under this paragraph shall be a
material default enabling LANDLORD to exercise any of the remedies set forth in
