                                HANDSPRING, INC.

                        2000 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

                         As Adopted March _______, 2000

         1. ESTABLISHMENT OF PLAN. Handspring, Inc. (the "COMPANY") proposes to
grant options for purchase of the Company's Common Stock to eligible employees
of the Company and its Participating Subsidiaries (as hereinafter defined)
pursuant to this Employee Stock Purchase Plan (this "PLAN"). For purposes of
this Plan, "PARENT CORPORATION" and "SUBSIDIARY" shall have the same meanings as
"parent corporation" and "subsidiary corporation" in Sections 424(e) and 424(f),
respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "CODE").
"PARTICIPATING SUBSIDIARIES" are Parent Corporations or Subsidiaries that the
Board of Directors of the Company (the "BOARD") designates from time to time as
corporations that shall participate in this Plan. The Company intends this Plan
to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under Section 423 of the Code
(including any amendments to or replacements of such Section), and this Plan
shall be so construed. Any term not expressly defined in this Plan but defined
for purposes of Section 423 of the Code shall have the same definition herein. A
total of _______________ shares of the Company's Common Stock is reserved for
issuance under this Plan. In addition, on each January 1, the aggregate number
of shares of the Company's Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan
shall be increased automatically by a number of shares equal to 1% of the total
number of outstanding shares of the Company Common Stock on the immediately
preceding December 31; provided, that the Board or the Committee may in its sole
discretion reduce the amount of the increase in any particular year; and,
provided further, that the aggregate number of shares issued over the term of
this Plan shall not exceed ____________ shares. Such number shall be subject to
adjustments effected in accordance with Section 14 of this Plan.

         2. PURPOSE. The purpose of this Plan is to provide eligible employees
of the Company and Participating Subsidiaries with a convenient means of
acquiring an equity interest in the Company through payroll deductions, to
enhance such employees' sense of participation in the affairs of the Company and
Participating Subsidiaries, and to provide an incentive for continued
employment.

         3. ADMINISTRATION. This Plan shall be administered by the Compensation
Committee of the Board (the "COMMITTEE"). Subject to the provisions of this Plan
and the limitations of Section 423 of the Code or any successor provision in the
Code, all questions of interpretation or application of this Plan shall be
determined by the Committee and its decisions shall be final and binding upon
all participants. Members of the Committee shall receive no compensation for
their services in connection with the administration of this Plan, other than
standard fees as established from time to time by the Board for services
rendered by Board members serving on Board committees. All expenses incurred in
connection with the administration of this Plan shall be paid by the Company.

         4. ELIGIBILITY. Any employee of the Company or the Participating
Subsidiaries is eligible to participate in an Offering Period (as hereinafter
defined) under this Plan except the following:

                  (a) employees who are not employed by the Company or a
Participating Subsidiary prior to the beginning of such Offering Period or prior
to such other time period as specified by the Committee, except that employees
who are employed on the Effective Date of the Registration Statement filed by
the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT") registering the
initial public offering of the Company's Common Stock shall be eligible to
participate in the first Offering Period under the Plan;

                  (b) employees who are customarily employed for twenty (20)
hours or less per week;

                  (c) employees who are customarily employed for five (5) months
or less in a calendar year;

                                                                Handspring, Inc.
                                               2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

                  (d) employees who, together with any other person whose stock
would be attributed to such employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code, own
stock or hold options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of
the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company
or any of its Participating Subsidiaries or who, as a result of being granted an
option under this Plan with respect to such Offering Period, would own stock or
hold options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total
combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or any of
its Participating Subsidiaries; and

                  (e) individuals who provide services to the Company or any of
its Participating Subsidiaries as independent contractors who are reclassified
as common law employees for any reason except for federal income and employment
tax purposes.

         5. OFFERING DATES. The offering periods of this Plan (each, an
"OFFERING PERIOD") shall be of twenty-four (24) months duration commencing on
February 1 and August 1 of each year and ending on January 31 and July 31 of
each year; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the first such
Offering Period shall commence on the first business day on which price
quotations for the Company's Common Stock are available on the Nasdaq National
Market (the "FIRST OFFERING DATE") and shall end on July 31, 2002. Except for
the first Offering Period, each Offering Period shall consist of four (4) six
month purchase periods (individually, a "PURCHASE PERIOD") during which payroll
deductions of the participants are accumulated under this Plan. The first
Offering Period shall consist of no more than five and no fewer than three
Purchase Periods, any of which may be greater or less than six months as
determined by the Committee. The first business day of each Offering Period is
referred to as the "OFFERING DATE". The last business day of each Purchase
Period is referred to as the "PURCHASE DATE". The Committee shall have the power
to change the Offering Dates, the Purchase Dates and the duration of Offering
Periods or Purchase Periods without stockholder approval if such change is
announced prior to the relevant Offering Period, or prior to such other time
period as specified by the Committee.

         6. PARTICIPATION IN THIS PLAN. Eligible employees may become
participants in an Offering Period under this Plan on the first Offering Date
after satisfying the eligibility requirements by delivering a subscription
agreement to the Company prior to such Offering Date, or such other time period
as specified by the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may
set a later time for filing the subscription agreement authorizing payroll
deductions for all eligible employees with respect to a given Offering Period.
An eligible employee who does not deliver a subscription agreement to the
Company by such date after becoming eligible to participate in such Offering
Period shall not participate in that Offering Period or any subsequent Offering
Period unless such employee enrolls in this Plan by filing a subscription
agreement with the Company prior to such Offering Date, or such other time
period as specified by the Committee. Once an employee becomes a participant in
an Offering Period, such employee will automatically participate in the Offering
Period commencing immediately following the last day of the prior Offering
Period unless the employee withdraws or is deemed to withdraw from this Plan or
terminates further participation in the Offering Period as set forth in Section
11 below. Such participant is not required to file any additional subscription
agreement in order to continue participation in this Plan.

         7. GRANT OF OPTION ON ENROLLMENT. Enrollment by an eligible employee in
this Plan with respect to an Offering Period will constitute the grant (as of
the Offering Date) by the Company to such employee of an option to purchase on
the Purchase Date up to that number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
determined by dividing (a) the amount accumulated in such employee's payroll
deduction account during such Purchase Period by (b) the lower of (i)
eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of a share of the Company's
Common Stock on the Offering Date (but in no event less than the par value of a
share of the Company's Common Stock), or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the
fair market value of a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Purchase Date
(but in no event less than the par value of a share of the Company's Common
Stock), provided, however, that the number of shares of the Company's Common
Stock subject to any option granted pursuant to this Plan shall not exceed the
lesser of (x) the maximum number of shares set by the Committee pursuant to
Section 10(c) below with respect to the applicable Purchase Date, or (y) the
maximum number of shares which may be purchased pursuant to Section 10(b) below
with respect to the applicable Purchase Date. The fair market value of a share
of the Company's Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 8
below.

                                                                Handspring, Inc.
                                               2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

         8. PURCHASE PRICE. The purchase price per share at which a share of
Common Stock will be sold in any Offering Period shall be eighty-five percent
(85%) of the lesser of:

                  (a)  The fair market value on the Offering Date; or

                  (b)  The fair market value on the Purchase Date.

                  For purposes of this Plan, the term "FAIR MARKET VALUE" means,
as of any date, the value of a share of the Company's Common Stock determined as
follows:

                  (a) if such Common Stock is then quoted on the Nasdaq National
Market, its closing price on the Nasdaq National Market on the date of
determination as reported in The Wall Street Journal;

                  (b) if such Common Stock is publicly traded and is then listed
on a national securities exchange, its closing price on the date of
determination on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common
Stock is listed or admitted to trading as reported in The Wall Street Journal;

                  (c) if such Common Stock is publicly traded but is not quoted
on the Nasdaq National Market nor listed or admitted to trading on a national
securities exchange, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on the date
of determination as reported in The Wall Street Journal; or

                  (d) if none of the foregoing is applicable, by the Board in
good faith, which in the case of the First Offering Date will be the price per
share at which shares of the Company's Common Stock are initially offered for
sale to the public by the Company's underwriters in the initial public offering
of the Company's Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement filed with
the SEC under the Securities Act.

         9. PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE; CHANGES IN PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS; ISSUANCE
OF SHARES.

                  (a) The purchase price of the shares is accumulated by regular
payroll deductions made during each Offering Period. The deductions are made as
a percentage of the participant's compensation in one percent (1%) increments
not less than one percent (1%), nor greater than ten percent (10%) or such lower
or higher limit set by the Committee but not to exceed fifteen percent (15%).
Compensation shall mean all W-2 cash compensation, including, but not limited
to, base salary, wages, commissions, overtime, shift premiums and bonuses, plus
draws against commissions, provided, however, that for purposes of determining a
participant's compensation, any election by such participant to reduce his or
her regular cash remuneration under Sections 125 or 401(k) of the Code shall be
treated as if the participant did not make such election. Payroll deductions
shall commence on the first payday of the Offering Period and shall continue to
the end of the Offering Period unless sooner altered or terminated as provided
in this Plan.

                  (b) A participant may increase or decrease the rate of payroll
deductions during an Offering Period by filing with the Company a new
authorization for payroll deductions, in which case the new rate shall become
effective for the next payroll period commencing after the Company's receipt of
the authorization and shall continue for the remainder of the Offering Period
unless changed as described below. Such change in the rate of payroll deductions
may be made at any time during an Offering Period, but not more than one (1)
change may be made effective during any Purchase Period. A participant may
increase or decrease the rate of payroll deductions for any subsequent Offering
Period by filing with the Company a new authorization for payroll deductions
prior to the beginning of such Offering Period, or prior to such other time
period as specified by the Committee.

                  (c) A participant may reduce his or her payroll deduction
percentage to zero during an Offering Period by filing with the Company a
request for cessation of payroll deductions. Such reduction shall be effective
beginning with the next payroll period after the Company's receipt of the
request and no further payroll deductions will be made for the duration of the
Offering Period. Payroll deductions credited to the participant's account prior
to the effective date of the request shall be used to purchase shares of Common
Stock of the Company in accordance with Section (e) below. A participant may not
resume making payroll deductions during the Offering Period in which he or she
reduced his or her payroll deductions to zero.

                                                                Handspring, Inc.
                                               2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

                  (d) All payroll deductions made for a participant are credited
to his or her account under this Plan and are deposited with the general funds
of the Company. No interest accrues on the payroll deductions. All payroll
deductions received or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any
corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such
payroll deductions.

                  (e) On each Purchase Date, so long as this Plan remains in
effect and provided that the participant has not submitted a signed and
completed withdrawal form before that date which notifies the Company that the
participant wishes to withdraw from that Offering Period under this Plan and
have all payroll deductions accumulated in the account maintained on behalf of
the participant as of that date returned to the participant, the Company shall
apply the funds then in the participant's account to the purchase of whole
shares of Common Stock reserved under the option granted to such participant
with respect to the Offering Period to the extent that such option is
exercisable on the Purchase Date. The purchase price per share shall be as
specified in Section 8 of this Plan. Any cash remaining in a participant's
account after such purchase of shares shall be refunded to such participant in
cash, without interest; provided, however that any amount remaining in such
participant's account on a Purchase Date which is less than the amount necessary
to purchase a full share of Common Stock of the Company shall be carried
forward, without interest, into the next Purchase Period or Offering Period, as
the case may be. In the event that this Plan has been oversubscribed, all funds
not used to purchase shares on the Purchase Date shall be returned to the
participant, without interest. No Common Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase
Date on behalf of any employee whose participation in this Plan has terminated
prior to such Purchase Date.

                  (f) As promptly as practicable after the Purchase Date, the
Company shall issue shares for the participant's benefit representing the shares
purchased upon exercise of his or her option.

                  (g) During a participant's lifetime, his or her option to
purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her. The participant
will have no interest or voting right in shares covered by his or her option
until such option has been exercised.

         10. LIMITATIONS ON SHARES TO BE PURCHASED.

                  (a) No participant shall be entitled to purchase stock under
this Plan at a rate which, when aggregated with his or her rights to purchase
stock under all other employee stock purchase plans of the Company or any
Subsidiary, exceeds $25,000 in fair market value, determined as of the Offering
Date (or such other limit as may be imposed by the Code) for each calendar year
in which the employee participates in this Plan. The Company shall automatically
suspend the payroll deductions of any participant as necessary to enforce such
limit provided that when the Company automatically resumes such payroll
deductions, the Company must apply the rate in effect immediately prior to such
suspension.

                  (b) No more than two hundred percent (200%) of the number of
shares determined by using eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of
a share of the Company's Common Stock on the Offering Date as the denominator
may be purchased by a participant on any single Purchase Date.

                  (c) No participant shall be entitled to purchase more than the
Maximum Share Amount (as defined below) on any single Purchase Date. Prior to
the commencement of any Offering Period or prior to such time period as
specified by the Committee, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, set a
maximum number of shares which may be purchased by any employee at any single
Purchase Date (hereinafter the "MAXIMUM SHARE AMOUNT"). Until otherwise
determined by the Committee, there shall be no Maximum Share Amount. In no event
shall the Maximum Share Amount exceed the amounts permitted under Section 10(b)
above. If a new Maximum Share Amount is set, then all participants must be
notified of such Maximum Share Amount prior to the commencement of the next
Offering Period. The Maximum Share Amount shall continue to apply with respect
to all succeeding Purchase Dates and Offering Periods unless revised by the
Committee as set forth above.

                  (d) If the number of shares to be purchased on a Purchase Date
by all employees participating in this Plan exceeds the number of shares then
available for issuance under this Plan, then the Company will make a

                                       4
<PAGE>   5
                                                                Handspring, Inc.
                                               2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

pro rata allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as shall be
reasonably practicable and as the Committee shall determine to be equitable. In
such event, the Company shall give written notice of such reduction of the
number of shares to be purchased under a participant's option to each
participant affected.

                  (e) Any payroll deductions accumulated in a participant's
account which are not used to purchase stock due to the limitations in this
Section 10 shall be returned to the participant as soon as practicable after the
end of the applicable Purchase Period, without interest.

         11. WITHDRAWAL.

                  (a) Each participant may withdraw from an Offering Period
under this Plan by signing and delivering to the Company a written notice to
that effect on a form provided for such purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected
at any time prior to the end of an Offering Period, or such other time period as
specified by the Committee.

                  (b) Upon withdrawal from this Plan, the accumulated payroll
deductions shall be returned to the withdrawn participant, without interest, and
his or her interest in this Plan shall terminate. In the event a participant
voluntarily elects to withdraw from this Plan, he or she may not resume his or
her participation in this Plan during the same Offering Period, but he or she
may participate in any Offering Period under this Plan which commences on a date
subsequent to such withdrawal by filing a new authorization for payroll
deductions in the same manner as set forth in Section 6 above for initial
participation in this Plan.

                  (c) If the Fair Market Value on the first day of the current
Offering Period in which a participant is enrolled is higher than the Fair
Market Value on the first day of any subsequent Offering Period, the Company
will automatically enroll such participant in the subsequent Offering Period.
Any funds accumulated in a participant's account prior to the first day of such
subsequent Offering Period will be applied to the purchase of shares on the
Purchase Date immediately prior to the first day of such subsequent Offering
Period, if any.

         12. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Termination of a participant's
employment for any reason, including retirement, death or the failure of a
participant to remain an eligible employee of the Company or of a Participating
Subsidiary, immediately terminates his or her participation in this Plan. In
such event, the payroll deductions credited to the participant's account will be
returned to him or her or, in the case of his or her death, to his or her legal
representative, without interest. For purposes of this Section 12, an employee
will not be deemed to have terminated employment or failed to remain in the
continuous employ of the Company or of a Participating Subsidiary in the case of
sick leave, military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by the Board;
provided that such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days or
reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or
statute.

         13. RETURN OF PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS. In the event a participant's interest
in this Plan is terminated by withdrawal, termination of employment or
otherwise, or in the event this Plan is terminated by the Board, the Company
shall deliver to the participant all payroll deductions credited to such
participant's account. No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions of a
participant in this Plan.

         14. CAPITAL CHANGES. Subject to any required action by the stockholders
of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option
under this Plan which has not yet been exercised and the number of shares of
Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under this Plan but have
not yet been placed under option (collectively, the "RESERVES"), as well as the
price per share of Common Stock covered by each option under this Plan which has
not yet been exercised, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or
decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the
Company resulting from a stock split or the payment of a stock dividend (but
only on the Common Stock) or any other increase or decrease in the number of
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of any
consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any
convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been "effected
without receipt of consideration". Such adjustment shall be made by the
Committee, whose determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as
expressly provided herein, no issue by the Company of shares of stock of any
class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall
affect, and no

                                       5
<PAGE>   6
                                                                Handspring, Inc.
                                               2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price
of shares of Common Stock subject to an option.

                  In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the
Company, the Offering Period will terminate immediately prior to the
consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the
Committee. The Committee may, in the exercise of its sole discretion in such
instances, declare that this Plan shall terminate as of a date fixed by the
Committee and give each participant the right to purchase shares under this Plan
prior to such termination. In the event of (i) a merger or consolidation in
which the Company is not the surviving corporation (other than a merger or
consolidation with a wholly-owned subsidiary, a reincorporation of the Company
in a different jurisdiction, or other transaction in which there is no
substantial change in the stockholders of the Company or their relative stock
holdings and the options under this Plan are assumed, converted or replaced by
the successor corporation, which assumption will be binding on all
participants), (ii) a merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation
but after which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger
(other than any stockholder that merges, or which owns or controls another
corporation that merges, with the Company in such merger) cease to own their
shares or other equity interest in the Company, (iii) the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company or (iv) the acquisition, sale, or
transfer of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company by tender
offer or similar transaction, the Plan will continue with regard to Offering
Periods that commenced prior to the closing of the proposed transaction and
shares will be purchased based on the Fair Market Value of the surviving
corporation's stock on each Purchase Date, unless otherwise provided by the
Committee consistent with pooling of interests accounting treatment.

                  The Committee may, if it so determines in the exercise of its
sole discretion, also make provision for adjusting the Reserves, as well as the
price per share of Common Stock covered by each outstanding option, in the event
that the Company effects one or more reorganizations, recapitalizations, rights
offerings or other increases or reductions of shares of its outstanding Common
Stock, or in the event of the Company being consolidated with or merged into any
other corporation.

         15. NONASSIGNABILITY. Neither payroll deductions credited to a
participant's account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or
to receive shares under this Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or
otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and
distribution or as provided in Section 22 below) by the participant. Any such
attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be void and
without effect.

         16. REPORTS. Individual accounts will be maintained for each
participant in this Plan. Each participant shall receive promptly after the end
of each Purchase Period a report of his or her account setting forth the total
payroll deductions accumulated, the number of shares purchased, the per share
price thereof and the remaining cash balance, if any, carried forward to the
next Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be.

         17. NOTICE OF DISPOSITION. Each participant shall notify the Company in
writing if the participant disposes of any of the shares purchased in any
Offering Period pursuant to this Plan if such disposition occurs within two (2)
years from the Offering Date or within one (1) year from the Purchase Date on
which such shares were purchased (the "NOTICE PERIOD"). The Company may, at any
time during the Notice Period, place a legend or legends on any certificate
representing shares acquired pursuant to this Plan requesting the Company's
transfer agent to notify the Company of any transfer of the shares. The
obligation of the participant to provide such notice shall continue
notwithstanding the placement of any such legend on the certificates.

         18. NO RIGHTS TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. Neither this Plan nor the grant
of any option hereunder shall confer any right on any employee to remain in the
employ of the Company or any Participating Subsidiary, or restrict the right of
the Company or any Participating Subsidiary to terminate such employee's
employment.

         19. EQUAL RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES. All eligible employees shall have
equal rights and privileges with respect to this Plan so that this Plan
qualifies as an "employee stock purchase plan" within the meaning of Section 423
or any successor provision of the Code and the related regulations. Any
provision of this Plan which is inconsistent with Section 423 or any successor
provision of the Code shall, without further act or amendment by the

                                       6

                                                                Handspring, Inc.
                                               2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Company, the Committee or the Board, be reformed to comply with the requirements
of Section 423. This Section 19 shall take precedence over all other provisions
in this Plan.

         20. NOTICES. All notices or other communications by a participant to
the Company under or in connection with this Plan shall be deemed to have been
duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location,
or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

         21. TERM; STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL. After this Plan is adopted by the
Board, this Plan will become effective on the First Offering Date (as defined
above). This Plan shall be approved by the stockholders of the Company, in any
manner permitted by applicable corporate law, within twelve (12) months before
or after the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. No purchase of shares
pursuant to this Plan shall occur prior to such stockholder approval. This Plan
shall continue until the earlier to occur of (a) termination of this Plan by the
Board (which termination may be effected by the Board at any time), (b) issuance
of all of the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under this Plan, or
(c) ten (10) years from the adoption of this Plan by the Board.

         22. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.

                  (a) A participant may file a written designation of a
beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the
participant's account under this Plan in the event of such participant's death
subsequent to the end of an Purchase Period but prior to delivery to him of such
shares and cash. In addition, a participant may file a written designation of a
beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the participant's account under this
Plan in the event of such participant's death prior to a Purchase Date.

                  (b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the
participant at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of a
participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under this
Plan who is living at the time of such participant's death, the Company shall
deliver such shares or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of
the participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to
the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such
shares or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of
the participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company,
then to such other person as the Company may designate.

         23. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES; LIMITATION ON SALE OF SHARES.
Shares shall not be issued with respect to an option unless the exercise of such
option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto shall
comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including,
without limitation, the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements
of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the shares may
then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the
Company with respect to such compliance.

         24. APPLICABLE LAW. The Plan shall be governed by the substantive laws
(excluding the conflict of laws rules) of the State of California.

         25. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THIS PLAN. The Board may at any time
amend, terminate or extend the term of this Plan, except that any such
termination cannot affect options previously granted under this Plan, nor may
any amendment make any change in an option previously granted which would
adversely affect the right of any participant, nor may any amendment be made
without approval of the stockholders of the Company obtained in accordance with
Section 21 above within twelve (12) months of the adoption of such amendment (or
earlier if required by Section 21) if such amendment would:

                  (a) increase the number of shares that may be issued under
this Plan; or

                  (b) change the designation of the employees (or class of
employees) eligible for participation in this Plan.

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions

and each and every part thereof, are leased "AS-IS," "WHERE-IS," "WITH ALL
FAULTS" and Landlord has made no representations or warranty as to the condition
of the Premises or as to the suitability or profitability of the Premises for
Tenant's intended use. Tenant has inspected and is satisfied with the physical
condition of the Premises.

             1.3 Year 2000 Disclaimer. Landlord hereby disclaims any liability
for, and Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any liability for, any and all
damages, injuries or other losses, whether ordinary, special, consequential,
punitive or otherwise, arising out of, relating to, or in connection with, (a)
the failure of any automated, computerized and/or software system or other
technology used in, on, or about the Premises or relating to the management or
operation of the Premises to accurately receive, provide or process date/time
data (including, but not limited to, calculating, comparing and sequencing) both
before and after the Commencement Date, and before, after, during and between
the years 1999 A.D. and 2000 A.D., and leap year calculations and, or (b) the
malfunction, ceasing to function or providing of invalid or incorrect results by
any such technology as a result of date/time data. The foregoing disclaimer
shall apply to any such technology used in, on, or about the Premises or that
affects the Premises, whether or not such technology is within the control of
Landlord or any of Landlord's agents or representatives. THE FOREGOING
DISCLAIMER INCLUDES A DISCLAIMER OF ALL WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE MATTERS DESCRIBED HEREIN, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED
WAY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

             1.4 Possession. Landlord shall deliver and Tenant shall accept
possession of (i) only the first floor of the Building on the Commencement Date,
and (ii) the second floor of the Building on December 15, 1999 ("Second Floor
Rent Commencement Date"). Landlord shall deliver the first floor of the Premises
on the Commencement Date, and the second floor of the Premises on the Second
Floor Rent Commencement Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of
Section 1.2 hereof. If Landlord does not deliver possession of the first floor
of the Building to Tenant on the terms and conditions required herein on or
before September 15, 1999, or the second floor of the Building to Tenant on or
before January 15, 2000, then Tenant, at its discretion, shall have the right to
terminate this Lease.

        Article 2. Term.

             2.1 Lease Term. The term of this Lease (the "Lease Term") shall be
for a period of five (5) Lease Years (plus any initial or fractional month which
may be included within the first Lease Year pursuant to the following sentences)
commencing on August 15, 1999 ("Commencement Date") and expiring on August 31,
2004. A "Lease Year" shall be a period of twelve (12) successive full calendar
months, beginning on the first day of the first full calendar month of the Lease
Term provided that, if the Commencement Date is a date other than the first day
of a calendar month, then the initial fractional month together with the next
succeeding twelve (12) full calendar months shall constitute the first Lease
Year. The expiration of the Lease Term or sooner termination of this Lease is
referred to herein as the "Lease Termination."

        Article 3. Rent.

             3.1 Base Rent. Tenant shall pay Landlord as "Base Rent" for the
Premises, monthly installments in the following sums:

        (a) Upon execution of this Lease, One Hundred and Twenty-Five Thousand
Five Hundred and Sixty Dollars ($125,560), Sixty-Two Thousand Seven Hundred and
Eighty Dollars ($62,780) to be applied as Base Rent for the first month
following the Commencement Date for the first floor of the Premises ("First
Floor Base Rent Initial Payment") and Sixty-Two Thousand Seven Hundred and
Eighty Dollars ($62,780) to be applied as Base Rent for the first month
following the Second Floor Rent Commencement Date for the second floor of the
Premises ("Second Floor Base Rent Initial Payment").

        (b) On the first day of the first full calendar month following the
Commencement Date, until the first day of the first full calendar month
following the Second Floor Rent Commencement Date, Sixty-Two Thousand Seven
Hundred and Eighty Dollars ($62,780) as Base Rent for the first floor of the
Premises, provided, however, that if the Commencement Date falls on a date other
than the first day of the month, Tenant shall be credited in such first full
calendar month the amount by which Tenant's First Floor Base Rent Initial
Payment exceeded the amount which Tenant would have paid in the month in which
the Commencement Date occurred had the Base Rent applicable to the first floor
of the Premises been prorated for such partial month.

        (c) On the first day of the first full calendar month following the
Second Floor Rent Commencement Date, One Hundred and Twenty-Five Thousand Five
Hundred and Sixty Dollars ($125,560) as Base Rent for the first and second floor
of the Premises, provided, however, that if the Second Floor Rent Commencement
Date falls on a date other than the first day of the month, Tenant shall be
credited in such first full calendar month following the Second Floor Rent
Commencement Date the amount by which Tenant's Second Floor Base Rent Initial
Payment exceeded the amount which Tenant would have paid in the month in which
the Second Floor Commencement Date occurred had the Base Rent applicable to the
second floor of the Premises

                                       3
<PAGE>   10

been prorated for such partial month.

Base Rent payments shall in advance on the first day of each calendar month in
the amounts set forth in subsections (b) and (c) above, commencing on the
Commencement Date and continuing throughout the Lease Term, and subject to
adjustment as set forth below in Section 3.2, provided that the first
installment of Base Rent shall be paid in advance upon Tenant's execution of
this Lease as set forth in subsection (a) above. Base Rent shall be paid by
Tenant in lawful money of the United States, without deduction, offset, prior
notice or demand, at such place(s) as may be designated from time to time by
Landlord. The Base Rent is based upon an agreed square footage of usable and
rentable area and is not subject to adjustment as a result of anyone's
recalculation of such area as being either more or less.

             3.2 Adjustments to Base Rent. Beginning on the first day of the
second Lease Year and continuing thereafter through the balance of the Lease
Term (including any extensions thereof) on the first day of each succeeding
Lease Year ("Adjustment Date") monthly installments of Base Rent shall be
increased by multiplying the Base Rent installment payable during the last month
of the preceding Lease Year by 1.035 so that each Lease Year the Base Rent
increases over the prior Lease year's Base Rent by three and one-half percent (3
1/2%), compounded.

             3.3 Additional Rent. All taxes, charges, costs, expenses and other
sums which Tenant is required to pay hereunder (together with all interest and
penalties that may accrue thereon if Tenant fails to pay the same) and all
damages, costs and expenses which Landlord may incur by reason of any Default of
Tenant shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder ("Additional Rent"). In
the event of nonpayment by Tenant of any Additional Rent, Landlord shall have
all of the rights and remedies with respect thereto as Landlord has for the
nonpayment of Base Rent. The term "Rentals" as used in this Lease shall mean
Base Rent and Additional Rent.

             3.4 Absolute Net Lease. It is the intention of Landlord and Tenant
that Rentals specified herein to be paid to Landlord shall be absolutely net to
Landlord. All costs, expenses and obligations of every kind relating to the
Premises (except as otherwise specifically and expressly provided in this Lease)
shall be paid by Tenant, and Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless
against all such costs, expenses and obligations.

             3.5 Interest. All payments due from Tenant to Landlord shall bear
interest from the date due until paid at the lesser rate of ten (10%) percent
per annum or the maximum rate allowed by law. In addition, Tenant shall pay all
reasonable costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord in the
collection of such amounts whether or not suit be filed.

             3.6 Late Charges. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant
to Landlord of any Rentals will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated
by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and
impracticable to fix. Such costs include,

                                       4
<PAGE>   11

without limitation, processing and accounting charges, and late charges that may
be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any encumbrance and note secured by any
encumbrance covering the Premises. Therefore, if any installment of Base Rent or
any amount due as Additional Rent due from Tenant is not received by Landlord
when due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of ten (10%) percent of
the overdue amount of Rentals as a late charge. The parties agree that this late
charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will
incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge shall
not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount,
or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies
available to Landlord.

        Article 4. Security Deposit. On or before the 23rd day of July 1999,
Tenant shall deposit with Landlord an irrevocable letter of credit ("Letter of
Credit") on a form acceptable to Landlord in the amount of Four Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($400,000.00) (the "Security Deposit"). The Letter of Credit shall be in
lieu of the cash Security Deposit. All references in this Lease to the "Security
Deposit" shall mean the Letter of Credit. Landlord shall be entitled to draw on
the Letter of Credit in whole or in part as provided for in this Article 4. The
Letter of Credit shall: (i) be issued by a commercial bank reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord ("Issuer"); (ii) be a stand-by, at-sight, irrevocable
letter of credit; (iii) be payable to Landlord; (iv) require that any draw on
the Letter of Credit shall be made only upon receipt by the Issuer of a written
certification Landlord certifying, under penalty of perjury, that the Tenant has
perform any one or more of the obligations required to be performed by Tenant
under the Lease and has not cured such failure or posted an additional cash
security deposit with Landlord in the damages likely to be caused by such
failure to perform that has not been cured and certifying that the amount drawn
on the Letter of Credit is the amount due Landlord on account of the Tenant's
default; (v) not expire prior to one year or longer after the date of its
issuance; and (vi) provide that it is governed by the Uniform Customs and
Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 revisions). Within fourteen (14) days
prior to expiration of the Letter of Credit then in effect, Tenant shall cause
the Issuer to issue and deliver to Landlord a Letter of Credit to replace the
expiring Letter to Credit ("Replacement Letter of Credit"). The Replacement
Letter of Credit shall be in the same amount as the expiring Letter of Credit
and shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in items (i) through (vi)
above. In the event Landlord transfers its interest in the Lease, at Landlord's
request and at Landlord's cost a new Letter of Credit shall be issued to the
transferee of the Landlord ("Transferee") on the same terms and conditions as
the existing Letter of Credit, except that the new Letter of Credit shall be
payable to the Transferee. Landlord shall surrender the existing Letter of
Credit to Tenant simultaneously with Tenant's delivery of the new Letter of
Credit to Transferee. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security
for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants, and
conditions of this Lease applicable to Tenant. If Tenant defaults with respect
to any provision of this Lease, including but not limited to the provisions
relating to the condition of the Premises upon Lease Termination, Landlord may
(but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of the
Security Deposit for the payment of any amount which Landlord may spend by
reason of Tenant's default or to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage
which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default. If any portion of the
Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant

                                       5
<PAGE>   12

shall, within ten days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord
in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount;
Tenant's failure to do so shall be a Default by Tenant. The rights of Landlord
pursuant to this Article 4 are in addition to any rights which Landlord may have
pursuant to Article 18 below. If Tenant fully and faithfully performs every
provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit or any
balance thereof shall be returned (without interest) to Tenant (or, at
Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interests hereunder) at the
Lease Termination and after Tenant has vacated the Premises. Landlord shall not
be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from Landlord's general funds
or be deemed a trustee of same.

        Article 5. Use of Premises.

             5.1 Permitted Uses. Tenant shall use the Premises only for the
purpose of office and/or research or development and for any and all legal uses
related to office and/or research and development and for no other purpose. Any
change in use of the Premises by Tenant without the prior written consent of
Landlord shall be a Default by Tenant.

             5.2 Matters of Record. Tenant acknowledges that this Lease is
subject to all matters of record and that Tenant has reviewed and accepts same
and assumes all risk as to such matters.

             5.3 Tenant to Comply with Legal Requirements. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Lease, at the Commencement Date, Landlord
represents and warrants that the Premises, the Land and Improvements shall
conform to all requirements of covenants, conditions, restrictions and
encumbrances, all underwriter's requirements, and all municipal, county, federal
and state rules, regulations, statutes, ordinances, laws, requirements and
building codes, (collectively, "Laws") applicable thereto. In the event of a
breach of the foregoing representation and warranty, Landlord shall, at its sole
cost and expense, correct such noncompliance and Tenant's sole remedy shall be
that provided in Article 22 hereof. Except as otherwise set forth in the
preceding sentences of this Section 5.3, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and
expense, promptly comply with all Laws relating to or affecting the condition,
use or occupancy of the Premises and, both now in force, or which may hereafter
be in force, whether or not the same are now contemplated by the parties; the
provisions of all recorded documents affecting the Premises, and the
requirements of any board of fire underwriters (or similar body now or hereafter
constituted) relating to or affecting the condition, use or occupancy of the
Premises including, without limitation, Tenant's obligations pursuant to this
Section 5.3 shall include without limitation maintaining or restoring the
Premises and making structural and nonstructural alterations and additions in
compliance and conformity with all laws and recorded documents relating to the
condition, use, occupational safety or occupancy of the Premises during the
Lease Term. Tenant shall maintain during the Lease Term all permits, licenses
and other authorizations required for the lawful operation of its business at
the Premises. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 5.3, Tenant shall
indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless from and against any loss,
expense, cost, damage, attorneys' fees, penalties, fines or liability arising
out of the

                                       6
<PAGE>   13

failure of Tenant to comply with any applicable law or recorded document or any
board of fire underwriters.

             5.4 Uses Prohibited.

                  5.4.1 Effect on Insurance. Tenant shall not do or permit
anything to be done in or about the Premises nor bring or keep anything on the
Premises which will in any way cause a cancellation of any insurance policy
covering the Premises or any part thereof or any of its contents, nor shall
Tenant sell or permit to be kept, used or sold in or about the Premises any
articles which may be prohibited by a standard form policy of fire insurance.

                  5.4.2 Dangerous Uses Nuisances and Waste. Tenant shall not do
or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way
obstruct or interfere with the rights of occupants of neighboring property or
injure or annoy them. Tenant shall not use or allow the Premises to be used for
any unlawful or hazardous purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, suffer, maintain or
permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises. Tenant shall not commit or
suffer to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises. Tenant shall at all
times cooperate with Landlord and Landlord's agents in the performance of
Tenant's duties and responsibilities.

             5.5 Hazardous Substances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary

environment, or which is not in compliance with law;

                  5.5.2 Except with the consent of Landlord, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, Tenant shall not cause or permit the production,

foregoing actually results from the release, disposal, discharge, or emission of
Hazardous Materials on or about the Premises during the term of this Lease by
Landlord or Landlord's employees or agents ("Tenant Contamination").

                                       8
<PAGE>   15

                  5.5.5 In the event any investigation or monitoring of site
conditions or any clean-up, containment, restoration, removal or other remedial
work (collectively, the "Remedial Work") is required under any Requirements of
Environmental Laws as a result of Tenant Contamination, Tenant shall perform or
cause to be performed the Remedial Work in compliance with the applicable law,
regulation, order or agreement. All Remedial Work shall be performed by one or
more contractors, selected by Tenant and approved in advance in writing by

and approved in advance in writing by Landlord. All costs and expenses of
Remedial Work shall be paid by Tenant including, without limitation, the charges
of the contractor(s) and/or the consulting engineer, and Landlord's reasonable

groundwater or surface water thereof, or the violation of any Environmental
Requirements relating to any such Hazardous Substances, the Premises or the use
of the Premises; except to the extent that any of the foregoing actually results
from Tenant Contamination.

             5.6 Landlord's Access to Premises. Tenant shall permit Landlord and
its agents to enter the Premises at all reasonable times, upon twenty-four (24)
hours advance written notice (except in case of emergency) for the purposes of
(i) inspecting the same, (ii) posting notices of

                                       9
<PAGE>   16

nonresponsibility, (iii) protecting the Premises in the event of an emergency,
(iv) exhibiting the Premises to prospective purchasers, lenders or tenants, (v)
making repairs, on behalf of Tenant, that Tenant has neglected or refused to
make, and (vi) at any time within one hundred eighty (180) days prior to Lease
Termination, to place upon the Premises ordinary "for lease" signs. In the event
of an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which
Landlord may deem proper to gain access to the Premises. Any entry to the
Premises by Landlord in accordance with this Section 5.6 or any other provision
of this Lease which (except in an emergency) does not unreasonably interfere
with Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, shall not under any
circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or
a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any
portion thereof nor give Tenant the right to abate the Rentals payable under
this Lease or any other right or remedy. Tenant hereby waives any claim for
damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's
business, any loss of beneficial or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any
other loss occasioned by Landlord's entry to the Premises as permitted by this
Section 5.6, or any other provision of this Lease.

             5.7 Signs. Subject to review and approval and potential
modification by the City of Mountain View, Landlord shall provide Tenant signage
on the monument to be installed by Landlord as described on Exhibit B. Except as
set forth in the preceding sentence, Tenant shall not place or permit to be
placed any sign on the Land or Improvements or the exterior of the Building
without the prior written consent of Landlord, except for signs which are in
existence as of the Commencement Date. Tenant shall, upon request by Landlord,
immediately remove any of Tenant's signs that Tenant has placed or permitted to
be placed on the Land, Improvements or the exterior of the Building without the
prior written consent of Landlord. If Tenant fails to so remove any such sign
within five days after Landlord's request, Landlord may enter upon the Premises
and remove such sign and Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand and as
Additional Rent, the cost of such removal. All signs placed on the Premises by
Tenant shall comply with all recorded documents affecting the Premises, and with
applicable laws, regulations and ordinances. At Lease Termination Tenant shall
remove all signs which it has placed on the Premises, and shall, at its sole
cost, repair any damage caused by the installation or removal of such signs.

        Article 6. Utilities.

             6.1 Tenant's Obligation. Tenant shall pay during the Lease Term and
prior to delinquency, all charges and all expenses or costs associated with
water, gas, light, heat, power, electricity, telephone or other communication
service, trash pickup, janitorial service, sewer, and all other services and
utilities supplied to or consumed on the Premises, and all taxes, fees, levies
or surcharges therefor. The disruption, failure, lack or shortage of any service
or utility due to any cause whatsoever shall not affect any obligation of Tenant
hereunder, and Tenant shall faithfully keep and observe all the terms,
conditions and covenants of this Lease and pay all Rentals due hereunder, all
without diminution, credit or deduction.

                                       10
<PAGE>   17

        Article 7. Taxes.

             7.1 Tenant's Obligation. Tenant shall pay, prior to delinquency,
all real estate taxes, personal property taxes, vehicular taxes, taxes computed
or based on rental income or environmental or energy usage, business and
occupation taxes, sales and/or use taxes, employee taxes, occupational license
taxes, general and special assessments, and all other governmental impositions,
fees, assessments, levies and charges of every kind and nature whatsoever,
whether deemed ad valorem or excise and specifically including any tax increase
caused by a transfer of ownership or any increase in rate or valuation ("Taxes")
which, during or with respect to any portion of the Lease Term, shall be
assessed, levied or imposed by any governmental subdivision or any other
authority having any direct or indirect power to tax against or in connection
with the use, possession, operation, existence, ownership, rental income or
management of the Premises. In the event any such Taxes are payable by Landlord
and it shall not be lawful for Tenant to reimburse Landlord for such Taxes, then
the Rentals payable hereunder shall be increased to net Landlord the same net
Rentals after imposition of any such Taxes upon Landlord as would have been
payable to Landlord prior to the imposition of any such Taxes. Nothing contained
in this Section 7.1 shall require Tenant to pay any federal, state and municipal
net income taxes or franchise, estate, or inheritance taxes imposed upon
Landlord.

             7.2 General. During any partial tax fiscal year(s) within the Lease
Term, Taxes shall be prorated according to the ratio which the number of days
Tenant occupies the Premises during such year bears to 365. Tenant shall furnish
to Landlord fifteen days prior to the last date when any Tax will become
delinquent, official receipts or other proof satisfactory to Landlord evidencing
payment thereof. If by law any Taxes may be paid in installments, Tenant may pay
the same (and any accrued interest on any unpaid balance thereof) in
installments as each installment becomes due and payable.

        Article 8. Insurance.

             8.1 Property/Rental Insurance - Premises. During the Lease Term,
Landlord shall keep the Premises insured against loss or damage by fire and
those risks normally included in the term "all risk" including (a) flood
coverage, (b) earthquake coverage at the election of Landlord (and only if
available at commercially reasonable rates), (c) coverage for loss of rents for
a period of not less than eighteen (18) months ("Rental Loss Insurance") and (d)
boiler and machinery coverage if the Landlord deems such coverage necessary. Any
deductibles, not to exceed $100,000, shall be paid by Tenant. The amount of such
insurance shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the replacement
value of the Premises; such insurance shall include a so-called "change-in-code"
endorsement insuring the increased costs of reconstructing the Premises incurred
due to the need to comply with applicable codes. Any recovery received from said
insurance policy shall be paid to Landlord and thereafter applied by Landlord to
the reconstruction of the Premises in accordance with the provisions of Article
10 below. Tenant, in addition to the rent and other charges provided herein,
agrees to reimburse Landlord for the cost of the premiums for all such insurance
covering the Premises. Such reimbursement shall be

                                       11
<PAGE>   18

made within fifteen (15) days of Tenant's receipt of a copy of Landlord's
statement therefor, accompanied by reasonable backup documentation. Tenant shall
pay to Landlord any deductibles (subject to the above conditions) owing,
accompanied by reasonable back-up documentation, within fifteen (15) days after
receipt of notice from Landlord of the amount owing.

             8.2 Property Insurance - Fixtures and Inventory. During the Lease
Term, Tenant shall, at its sole expense, maintain insurance with "all risk"
coverage on any fixtures, leasehold improvements, furnishings, merchandise,
equipment, or personal property in or on the Premises, whether in place as of
the date hereof or installed hereafter, for the full replacement value thereof,
and Landlord shall not have any responsibility nor pay any costs for maintaining
any types of such insurance. Any deductibles shall be paid by Tenant.

             8.3 Landlord's Liability Insurance. During the Lease Term, Landlord
shall maintain a policy or policies of comprehensive general liability insurance
insuring Landlord (and such others as designated by Landlord) against liability
for bodily injury, death and property damage on or about the Premises or the
common area, with combined single limit coverage of not less than Five Million
Dollars ($5,000,000). Tenant, in addition to the rent and other charges provided
herein, agrees to pay to Landlord the premiums for all such insurance. The
insurance premiums shall be paid within fifteen (15) days of Tenant's receipt of
a copy of Landlord's statement therefor.

             8.4 Tenant's Responsibilities With Regard to Liability Insurance.
During the Lease Term, Tenant shall, at its sole expense, maintain for the
mutual benefit of Landlord and Tenant, comprehensive general liability and
property damage insurance against claims for bodily injury, death or property
damage occurring in or about the Premises or arising out of the use or occupancy
of the Premises, with combined single limit coverage of not less than One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000)
in the aggregate. The limits of such insurance shall not serve to limit the
liability of Tenant. Tenant shall furnish to Landlord prior to the Commencement
Date, and at least twenty (20) days prior to the expiration date of any policy,
certificates indicating that the liability insurance required by Tenant above is
in full force and effect; that Landlord has been named as an additional insured
to the extent of contractual liability assumed in Section 9.1 "Indemnification
of Landlord"; and that any such policy will not be canceled unless thirty (30)
days' prior written notice of the proposed cancellation has been given to
Landlord. The insurance shall be with insurers approved by Landlord and with
policies in form satisfactory to Landlord, provided however, that such approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

             8.5 Mutual Waiver of Claims. Notwithstanding an other provisions of
this Lease to the contrary, Landlord hereby releases Tenant, and Tenant hereby
releases Landlord, and their respective subtenants, assignees, officers, agents,
employees and servants, from any and all claims or demands of damages, loss,
expense, or injury to the Premises, or to the furnishings and fixtures and
equipment, or inventory or other property of either Landlord or Tenant in, or
about

                                       12
<PAGE>   19

or upon the Premises or the Building, which are or would be included in a
standard "all risk" insurance policy, whether or not such loss or damage is due
to the negligence of Landlord or Tenant, their agents, employees, guests,
licensees, invitees, or contractors. Provided that such is available, each party
hereto shall obtain insurance coverage pursuant to this Article 8 which contains
a waiver of subrogation rights by the insurer as is applicable to this Section
8.5.

        Article 9. Indemnity and Exculpation.

             9.1 Indemnification of Landlord. Tenant shall defend, indemnify,
and hold Landlord and its agents harmless (except for their gross negligence or
willful misconduct and then only to the extent that insurance actually carried
or required to be carried pursuant to this Lease does not cover same) from and
against any and all obligations, losses, costs, expenses, claims, demands,
liabilities (including expert consultant or witness fees, attorneys' fees and
investigation costs incurred in defending same) on account of, or arising out of
the use, condition or occupancy of the Premises or any act or omission to act by
Tenant or Tenant's agents or any occurrence in, upon or at the Premises causing
injury, death or damage to any person or property whomever or whatever
("Claims"). It is understood that Tenant is and shall be in control and
possession of the Premises and that Landlord shall in no event be responsible or
liable for any injury or damage to any property of Tenant or any other person,
or for damage or injury or death to any person whatsoever, happening on, in,
about, or in connection with the Premises, or for any injury or damage to the
Premises or any part thereof, except as resulting from the actions or omissions
of Landlord or Landlord's agents or representatives. The provisions of this
Lease permitting Landlord to enter and inspect the Premises are for the purpose
of enabling Landlord to become informed as to whether Tenant is complying with
the terms of this Lease, and Landlord shall be under no duty to enter, inspect
or to perform any of Tenant's covenants set forth in this Lease including,
without limitation, as of the date any extended Lease Term commencing and Tenant
expressly assumes all such duties. Tenant shall further indemnify, defend and
hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all Claims arising from any
breach or default in the performance or observance of any obligation on Tenant's
part to be performed or observed under the terms of this Lease. The provisions
of this Section 9.1 shall survive Lease Termination with respect to any act,
omission, event, condition, damage, injury or death occurring prior to such
Lease Termination.

             9.2 Landlord as Party Defendant. If, by reason of Tenant's or
Tenant's agent's act or omission, Landlord is made a party defendant in any
action or proceeding concerning this Lease or the Premises, Tenant shall hold
harmless, defend and indemnify Landlord from and against all Claims asserted in
such action or proceeding, including all damages, costs and attorneys' fees.

             9.3 Waiver of Claims. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, and
Tenant waives all claims against Landlord, for injury or death to any person
(including without limitation Tenant and Tenant's agents) or for damage or loss
of use of any property (including without limitation Tenant's Personal Property)
by and from all causes, including without limitation, any

                                       13
<PAGE>   20

defect in or condition of the Premises and/or any damage or injury resulting
from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain which may leak or flow from or
into any part of the Premises, or from breakage, leakage, obstruction or other
defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or
lighting fixtures, whether the damage, injury or death results from conditions
arising in, upon, or about the Premises or from other sources. Tenant shall
immediately notify Landlord in writing of any known defect in or undesirable or
dangerous condition at the Premises and shall promptly repair or correct same at
Tenant's sole cost and expense except as otherwise expressly provided in Article
10 or Article 14. The provisions of this Section 9.3 shall not apply to any
damage or injury caused by Landlord's or Landlord's agent's or representative's
willful misconduct or gross negligence.

        Article 10. Damage or Destruction.

             10.1 Landlord's Duty to Restore. If the Premises are damaged by any
peril after the Commencement Date, Landlord shall restore the Premises unless
the Lease is terminated by Landlord pursuant to Section 10.2 or by Tenant
pursuant to Section 10.3. All insurance proceeds available from the fire and
property damage insurance carried by Tenant pursuant to Section 8.1 (excluding,
however, any proceeds paid with respect to any Alterations installed and paid
for by Tenant and Tenant's personal property and trade fixtures shall be paid to
and become the property of Landlord. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to
either Section 10.2 or 10.3, then all insurance proceeds available from
insurance carried by Tenant, including pursuant to Section 8.1 and any other
insurance which covers loss to property that is Landlord's property on
termination of this Lease shall be paid to and become the property of Landlord.
If this Lease is not so terminated, then upon receipt of the insurance proceeds
(if the loss is covered by insurance) and the issuance of all necessary
governmental permits, Landlord shall commence and diligently prosecute to
completion the restoration of the Premises, to the extent then allowed by Law,
to substantially the same condition in which the Premises were immediately prior
to such damage. Landlord's obligation to restore shall be limited to the
Premises and Improvements constructed by Landlord as they existed as of the
Commencement Date, excluding any Tenant's Alterations, trade fixtures and/or
personal property constructed or installed by Tenant in the Premises. Tenant
shall, at its discretion, forthwith replace or fully repair all Tenant's
Alterations, trade fixtures and personal property installed by Tenant and
existing at the time of such damage or destruction.

             10.2 Landlord's Right to Terminate. Landlord shall have the right
to terminate this Lease in the event any of the following occurs, which right
may be exercised only by delivery to Tenant of a written notice of election to
terminate within 30 days after the date of such damage:

                  10.2.1 Either the Premises or the Building is damaged by an
Insured Peril to such an extent that the estimated cost to restore exceeds fifty
percent (50%) of the then actual replacement cost thereof;

                                       14
<PAGE>   21

                  10.2.2 Either the Premises or the Building is damaged by an
Uninsured Peril to such an extent that the estimated cost to restore exceed
twenty-five percent (25%) of the then actual replacement cost thereof; provided,
however, that Landlord may not terminate this Lease pursuant to this section if
Tenant agrees in writing to pay the amount by which the cost to restore the
damage exceeds such amount and subsequently deposits such amount with Landlord
within 30 days after Landlord has notified Tenant of its election to terminate
this Lease;

                  10.2.3 The Premises are damaged by any peril within 12 months
of the last day of the Lease Term to such an extent that the estimated cost to
restore equals or exceeds an amount equal to six monthly installments of the
Base Rent then due; or

                  10.2.4 Either the Project or the Building is damaged by any
peril and, because of the laws then in force, (i) cannot be restored at
reasonable cost to substantially the same condition in which it was prior to
such damage, or (ii) cannot be used for the same use being made thereof before
such damage if restored as required by this Article.

                  10.2.5 As used herein, the following terms shall have the
following meanings: (i) the term "Insured Peril" shall mean a peril actually
insured against for which the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord
are sufficient (except for any "deductible" amount specified by such insurance)
to restore the Premises under then existing building codes to the condition
existing immediately prior to the damage; and (ii) the term "Uninsured Peril"
shall mean any peril which is not an Insured Peril. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the "deductible" for earthquake or flood insurance exceeds ten
percent (10%) of the replacement cost of the improvements insured, such peril
shall be deemed an "Uninsured Peril."

             10.3 Tenant's Right to Terminate. If the Premises are damaged by
any peril and Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease or is not entitled
to terminate this Lease pursuant to paragraph 10.2, within thirty (30) days
following the date of such damage, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with the
written opinion of Landlord's architect or construction consultant as to when
the restoration work required of Landlord may be completed. Tenant shall have
the right to terminate this lease in the event any of the following occurs,
which right may be exercised only by delivery to Landlord of a written notice of
election to terminate within seven (7) days after Tenant receives from Landlord
the estimate of the time needed to complete such restoration.

                  10.3.1 The Premises are damaged by any peril and, in the
reasonable opinion of Landlord's architect or construction consultant, the
restoration of the Premises cannot be substantially completed within 200 days
after the date of such damage; or

                  10.3.2 The Premises are damaged by any peril within twelve
(12) months of the last day of the Lease Term and, in the reasonable opinion of
Landlord's architect or construction consultant, the restoration of the Premises
cannot be substantially completed within 90 days after the date of such damage
and such damage renders unusable more than thirty percent (30%) of the Premises.

                                       15

             10.4 Waiver of Civil Code Remedies. Tenant hereby expressly waives
any rights to terminate this Lease upon damage or destruction to the Premises
except as provided in Section 10.2 above, including without limitation any
rights pursuant to the provisions of Section 1932, Subdivision 2 and Section
1933, Subdivision 4, of the California Civil Code, as amended from time to time,
and the provisions of any similar law hereinafter enacted.

             10.5 No Abatement of Rentals. The Rentals and other charges due
under this Lease shall not be reduced or abated by reason of any damage or
destruction to the Premises (except to the extent of proceeds that are received
by Landlord from the Rental Loss Insurance or would have been received by
Landlord had Landlord maintained the Rental Loss Insurance required in Section
8.1 above) and Landlord shall be entitled to all proceeds of the insurance
maintained pursuant to Section 8.1 above during the period of rebuilding
pursuant to Section 10.1 above, or if the Lease is terminated pursuant to
Section 10.2 above. Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord, including,
without limitation, for compensation for inconvenience or loss of business or
goodwill during any period of repair or reconstruction.

             10.6 Liability for Personal Property. In no event shall Landlord
have any liability for, nor shall it be required to repair or restore, any
injury or damage to Tenant's Personal Property or to Alterations, or any other
personal property installed in or upon the Premises by Tenant or at the expense
of Tenant, except in the event such injury or damage is caused by the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord.

             10.7 Liens. Tenant shall keep the Premises free from any liens
arising out of work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by
Tenant or Tenant's agents. Tenant shall give notice to Landlord in writing
fifteen (15) days prior to employing any laborer or contractor to perform
services related to (or receiving materials for use upon) the Premises, and
prior to the commencement of any work of improvement on the Premises. Landlord
shall have the right to post and keep posted on the Premises notices for the
protection of Landlord and the Premises from mechanics' and materialmen's liens,
including without limitation a notice of nonresponsibility. Tenant shall
indemnify, hold harmless and defend Landlord from any liens or encumbrances
(including all costs, liabilities, and attorneys' fees with respect thereto)
arising out of any work performed or materials furnished by or at the direction
of Tenant or Tenant's agents. Should any claims of lien be filed against, or any
action be commenced affecting the Premises and/or Tenant's interest in the
Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such lien or action within three
days after Tenant receives notice of the filing of the lien or the commencement
of the action. If Tenant shall not, within twenty days following the imposition
of any such lien, cause such lien to be released of record by payment or posting
of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies
provided herein and by law, the right, but not the obligation, to cause the same
to be released by such means as Landlord shall deem proper, including payment of
the claim giving rise to such lien or posting a proper bond. All such sums paid
by Landlord and all expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith,
including attorneys' fees and costs, shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant as
Additional Rent on demand.

        Article 11. Repairs and Maintenance.

             11.1 Tenant's Maintenance and Repair Obligations. Subject to the
provisions of Article 10 above, except as otherwise set forth in Section 11.1.3
hereof, Tenant shall throughout the Lease Term, at its own cost and expense,
keep and maintain in good and sanitary order, condition, and repair the entire
Premises and every part thereof, including, without limitation, interior and
exterior (i) roof and roofing, walls, floors, ceilings, skylights, doors,
windows, plate glass, (ii) all foundations, structural and operational parts,

ventilating and air conditioning equipment and systems, connections, piping,
wiring, switches, fixtures and fittings, (iv) signs, (v) curbs, sidewalks,
gutters, concrete and paving, (vi) landscaping, (vii) all Tenant Improvements to
be installed pursuant to Section 12.5. The term "repair" as used herein shall
include and mean replacements, restorations, and/or renewals when necessary, as
well as interior and exterior painting and sealing and resurfacing asphalt.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following shall apply:

                  11.1.1 Prior to the Commencement Date and throughout the
balance of the Lease Term, Tenant shall enter into a written contract with a
firm engaged in the business of maintaining air conditioning, ventilating and
heating equipment to perform regular and customary maintenance service and, if
necessary, to repair or replace such equipment.

                  11.1.2 Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep and
maintain the landscaping of the grounds of the Premises in an attractive,
sightly and well-kept condition.

                  11.1.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Lease, if any of Tenant's obligations under Article 11 of this Lease would
require Tenant to pay all or any portion of any charge which must be treated as
a capital improvement under generally accepted accounting principles, then
Tenant shall pay its share of such expenses as follows: the cost of such
improvement shall be amortized over the useful life of the improvement (as
reasonably determined by Landlord) with interest on the unamortized balance at
the then prevailing market rate Landlord would pay if it borrowed funds to
construct such improvements from an institutional lender, and Landlord shall
inform Tenant of the monthly amortization payment required to so amortize such
costs, and shall also provide Tenant with the information upon which such
determination is made; and (ii) Tenant shall pay to Landlord such amortization
payment for each month after such improvement is completed until the first to
occur of (i) the expiration of the Lease term or (ii) the end of the term over
which such costs were amortized, which amount shall be due at the same time the
base monthly rent is due.

             11.2 Landlord Has No Duty to Maintain or Repair. As additional
consideration for this Lease, except as otherwise specifically and expressly
provided for in this Lease, Landlord shall have no duty to repair, maintain or
replace the Premises or any part or component thereof, Tenant having assumed the
duty to do so with respect to the Premises and every part and component thereof.

                                       17
<PAGE>   24

             11.3 Landlord May Perform Tenant's Obligations. If Tenant fails to
make any repairs or maintenance required of Tenant pursuant to this Section 11.3
within five days after written notice by Landlord to Tenant, Landlord, in
addition to all other remedies available hereunder or by law, and without
waiving any alternative remedies, may enter into the Premises and perform such
repairs or maintenance, in which event Tenant shall reimburse Landlord as
Additional Rent for the cost of such maintenance or repairs on the next date
upon which Base Rent becomes due; Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for
any damage, inconvenience, or interference with the use of the Premises by
Tenant as a result of performing any such repairs or maintenance.

             11.4 Waiver of Civil Code Remedies. Tenant expressly waives the
benefits of any statute now or hereafter in effect (including, without
limitation, the provisions of Subsection 1 of Section 1932 and Sections 1941 and
1942 of the Civil Code of California) which might otherwise afford Tenant the
right to make repairs at Landlord's expense (or to deduct the cost of such
repairs from Rentals due hereunder) or to terminate this Lease because of
Landlord's failure to keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair,
Tenant having assumed all such obligations. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that
Tenant's obligation to improve, repair, and maintain the Premises is part of the
consideration for Landlord's renting the Premises to Tenant.

             11.5 Surrender of Premises. Upon Lease Termination, Tenant shall
surrender the Premises to Landlord free of deferred maintenance in broom clean,
good condition and repair, normal wear and tear excepted (provided that normal
wear and tear shall not include any wear and tear that could have been avoided
by prudent maintenance nor shall it include wear and tear which has reached a
point where an item is an economically practical matter ought to be replaced
rather than repaired) including, without limitation, with (i) originally painted
interior walls washed, or repainted if marked or chipped, (ii) other interior
walls cleaned, repaired or replaced, (iii) all carpets cleaned and in good
condition, (iv) all electrical, gas, steam, water, lighting, plumbing, sewer,
mechanical and air conditioning, ventilating and heating systems and every part
thereof inspected and in good operating condition and repair, (v) all exterior
walls, roof and roofing, drop ceilings, plate glass, windows, doors, driveways,
paving, concrete, landscaping, lighting, in good condition and repair, (vi) all
Tenant Improvements (or their replacements) and other Alterations and every part
thereof in good operating condition and repair, and (vii) all floors cleaned,
all to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord. Upon demand, Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for the cost of repairing any and all damage to the Premises.
If the Premises are not surrendered at Lease Termination as required by this
Section 11.5, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against claims, loss or liability
resulting from Tenant's failure to comply with the provisions of this Section
11.5, including, without limitation, any losses reasonably suffered by Landlord
due to lost opportunities to lease the Premises to succeeding tenants. Landlord
may, without abatement of Rentals, enter the Premises for alteration,
renovation, or decoration during the last thirty days of the Lease Term if
Tenant has removed substantially all of Tenant's personal property and has
ceased using the Premises for the operation of its business therein.

        Article 12.  Alterations and Additions.

             12.1 Prohibitions in General. Tenant shall not demolish or make any
alterations, additions, changes, enlargements or improvements (collectively,
"Alterations") to the Premises or any part thereof without first obtaining the
prior written consent of Landlord which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
except for any individual non-structural alteration which does not effect
materially any of the Building systems or its water tightness and the cost of
which is less than $25,000 and as to which Tenant provides Landlord a detailed
description (with plans, specifications and permits if applicable) at least ten
(10) days prior to commencement of the alteration. Landlord may impose, as a
condition to Landlord's consent, such requirements as Landlord may deem
necessary in its reasonable discretion, including without limitation: the
requirement that Tenant post a completion bond in an amount and form
satisfactory to Landlord; the requirement that upon written request of Landlord
prior to Lease Termination (or if Lease Termination occurs due to a Default by
Tenant within thirty days after Tenant quits possession of the Premises),
Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, will remove any or all Alterations to
the Premises subject to the provisions of Section 12.3 below; and the
requirement that Tenant reimburse Landlord for Landlord's actual costs incurred
in reviewing any proposed Alteration, whether or not Landlord's consent is
granted. Tenant shall not make or permit to be made any Alterations to the
Premises without acquiring and complying with the conditions of all permits
required for such work by any governmental authority having jurisdiction
thereof. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant desires to construct a cafeteria in
the Premises and Tenant acknowledges that such construction will be subject to
the terms and conditions of this Article 12.

             12.2 Surrender of Alterations and Additions. All Alterations made
to the Premises by Tenant shall at Lease Termination become the property of
Landlord and remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises, unless otherwise
specified by Landlord pursuant to Section 12.1 above, or by notice to Tenant
prior to Lease Termination.

expense, repair all damage to the Premises caused by a removal by Tenant of any

12.3 above, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, make any alteration, addition, or
change to the Premises of any sort, substantial or insubstantial, ordinary or
extraordinary, foreseeable or unforeseeable, whether structural or otherwise, as
may be required by law due to an act or omission of Tenant or Tenant's use or
occupancy of, the Premises or as a result of Tenant's application for any permit
or governmental approval.

             12.5 Tenant Improvements. Landlord, at its sole cost and expense,
shall install the Tenant Improvements described in Exhibit "C" hereto, on the
terms and conditions contained therein.

        Article 13. Fixtures.

             13.1 Fixtures. At Lease Termination, all fixtures, other than trade
fixtures, attached to the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant shall be deemed to
be a part of the realty and the Premises. However, if Landlord elects not to
consider any of such fixtures as a part of the realty, Tenant shall remove any
and all such fixtures on or before the date of Lease Termination. Tenant at its
sole cost and expense shall repair all damage to the Premises caused by removal
of Tenant's fixtures and trade fixtures, including without limitation repairing
floors and painting walls where required by Landlord to Landlord's reasonable
satisfaction.

             13.2 Trade Fixtures and Personal Property. All personal property,
trade fixtures, machinery, tools, equipment, appliances, furniture and
furnishings (collectively "Personal Property") owned by Tenant or installed by
Tenant in the Premises shall be and remain the property of Tenant and may be
removed by Tenant at any time during the Lease Term when Tenant is not in
default hereunder, subject to the provisions of Sections 12.3 and 13.1 above. If
after Lease Termination and within ten days after written demand by Landlord,
Tenant fails to remove any of Tenant's Personal Property, or if removed by
Landlord, fails to pay the removal expenses, the Personal Property may be deemed
abandoned property by Landlord and may be disposed of as Landlord deems
appropriate. If, Landlord elects to remove from the Premises such Personal
Property, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand for the cost of removal,
storage and disposition of such Personal Property.

        Article 14. Condemnation.

             14.1 Definition of Terms. For the purpose of this Lease the term:

                  14.1.1 "Taking" means a taking of the Premises or damage

or so much of the Premises as to prevent or substantially impair the use thereof
by Tenant for the uses herein specified; provided, however, that in no event
shall a taking of less than twenty percent of the Premises be considered a Total
Taking.

                  14.1.3 "Partial Taking" means the Taking of only a portion of
the Premises which does not constitute a Total Taking.

        Article 15. Assignment and Subletting.

             15.1 Prohibitions in General. Tenant shall not (whether
voluntarily, involuntarily, or by operation of law) (i) assign, transfer,
hypothecate, or encumber Tenant's interest in this Lease or in the Premises,
(ii) allow all or any part of the Premises to be sublet, licensed, occupied, or
used by any person or entity other than Tenant, (iii) transfer any right
appurtenant to this Lease or the Premises, (iv) mortgage or encumber the Lease
(or otherwise use the Lease as a security device) in any manner, or (v) permit
any person or entity to assume or succeed to any interest of Tenant whatsoever
in this Lease, without Landlord's prior written consent in each instance, which
consent with respect only to transfers described in clauses (i) and (ii) above
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord's consent to any such assignment,
sublease, hypothecation, encumbrance, or transfer (collectively "Transfer")
shall be evidenced by Landlord's signature on the Assumption Agreement provided
for in Section 15.3 below. Any Transfer without Landlord's consent shall
constitute a Default by Tenant and shall be voidable at Landlord's option.
Landlord's consent to any one Transfer shall not constitute a waiver of the
provisions of this Article 15 as to any subsequent Transfer nor a consent to any
subsequent Transfer; further, Landlord's consent to any one or more Transfers
shall not release Tenant from Tenant's obligations under this Lease. The
provisions of this Article 15 expressly apply to all heirs, successors,
sublessees, assignees and transferees of Tenant. All Transfers and proposed
Transfers are subject to the provisions of this Article 15. If Landlord consents
to a proposed Transfer, such Transfer shall be valid and the Transferee shall
have the right to take possession of the Premises only if an executed
counterpart of the assignment, sublease or other document evidencing the
Transfer is first delivered to Landlord, and such transfer document contains the
same terms and conditions as stated in Tenant's notice given to Landlord
pursuant to Section 15.4 below, except for any such modifications Landlord has
consented to in writing.

             15.2 Collection of Rent. Subject to Section 15.5.2 hereof, Tenant
irrevocably assigns to Landlord, as security for Tenant's obligations under this
Lease, all rent to be paid by or on behalf of any Transferee not otherwise
payable to Landlord by reason of any Transfer of all or any part of the Premises
as permitted by this Article 15. Landlord, as assignee of Tenant, or a receiver
for Tenant appointed on Landlord's application, may collect such rent and apply
it toward Tenant's obligations under this Lease, provided, however, that until
the occurrence of any Default by Tenant or except as provided by the provisions
of Section 15.6.3 below, Tenant shall have the right to collect such rent.

                                       22
<PAGE>   29

             15.3 Assumption Agreement. As a condition to Landlord's consent to
any Transfer of Tenant's interest in this Lease or the Premises, Tenant and
Tenant's assignee, sublessee, encumbrancer, hypothecate, or transferee
(collectively "Transferee"), shall execute a written Assumption Agreement, in a
form approved by Landlord, which Agreement shall include a provision that
Tenant's Transferee shall expressly assume all obligations of Tenant under this
Lease, and be and remain jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the
performance of all conditions, covenants, and obligations under this Lease from
the effective date of the Transfer of Tenant's interest in this Lease.

             15.4 Request for Transfer. Tenant shall give Landlord at least
fifteen (15) days prior written notice of any desired Transfer and of the
proposed terms of such Transfer, including but not limited to: the name and
legal composition of the proposed Transferee; an audited financial statement, if
applicable of the proposed Transferee prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles within one year prior to the proposed effective
date of the Transfer; the nature of the proposed Transferee's business to be
carried on in the Premises; the payment to be made or other consideration to be
given on account of the Transfer; a current financial statement of Tenant; and
other such pertinent information as may be reasonably requested by Landlord, all
in sufficient detail to enable Landlord to evaluate the proposed Transfer and
the prospective Transferee. Tenant's notice shall not be deemed to have been
served or given until such time as Tenant has provided Landlord with all
information reasonably requested by Landlord pursuant to this Section 15.4 and
Landlord shall notify Tenant within fifteen (15) days thereafter whether
Landlord will grant or withhold its consent. In the event that Landlord fails to
grant or deny consent within such fifteen (15) day period, such consent shall be
deemed denied. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of any modification to
the proposed terms of such Transfer or any change in the information provided to
Landlord pursuant to this Section 15.4.

             15.5 Conditional Consent. If Landlord consents to a Transfer
proposed by Tenant, Tenant may enter into such Transfer, and if Tenant does so,
the following shall apply:

                  15.5.1 Tenant shall not be released of its liability for the
performance of all of its obligations under the Lease.

                  15.5.2 If Tenant assigns its interest in this Lease, then
Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all subrent (as defined in
section 15.5.5 below) received by Tenant over and above (i) the assignee's
agreement to assume the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, and (ii) all
Permitted Transfer Costs related to such assignment. In the case of assignment,
the amount of subrent owed to Landlord shall be paid to Landlord on the same
basis, whether periodic or in lump sum, that such subrent is paid to Tenant by
the assignee. In calculating Landlord's share of any periodic payments, all
Permitted Transfer Costs shall be first recovered by Tenant.

                  15.5.3 If Tenant sublets all or any part of the Premises, then
with respect to

                                       23
<PAGE>   30

the space so subleased, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the
positive difference, if any, between (i) all subrent actually paid by the
subtenant to Tenant, less (ii) the sum of all Base Rent and Additional Rent
allocable to the space sublet and all Permitted Transfer Costs related to such
sublease. Such amount shall be paid to Landlord on the same basis, whether
periodic or in lump sum, that such subrent is paid to Tenant by its subtenant.
In calculating Landlord's share of any periodic payments, all Permitted Transfer
Costs shall be first recovered by Tenant.

                  15.5.4 Tenant's obligations under this Section 15.5 shall
survive any Transfer, and Tenant's failure to perform its obligations hereunder
shall be a Default by Tenant. At the time Tenant makes any payment to Landlord
required by this section, Tenant shall deliver an itemized statement of the
method by which the amount of which Landlord is entitled was calculated,
certified by Tenant as true and correct. Landlord shall have the right at
reasonable intervals to inspect Tenant's books and records relating to the
payments due hereunder. Upon request therefore, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord
copies of all bills, invoices or other documents upon which its calculations are
based. Landlord may condition its approval of any Transfer upon obtaining a
certification from both Tenant and the proposed transferee of all subrent and
other amounts that are to be paid to Tenant in connection with such Transfer.

                  15.5.5 As used in this section, the term "subrent" shall mean
any consideration of any kind received, or to be received by Tenant, as rent or
in lieu of rent, including payments from or on behalf of the transferee (in
excess of the book value thereof) for Tenant's assets, fixtures, leasehold
improvements, inventory, accounts, goodwill, equipment, furniture, and general
intangibles. As used in this section, the term "Permitted Transfer costs" shall
mean (i) all reasonable leasing commissions paid to third parties not affiliated
with Tenant in order to obtain the Transfer in question, (ii) all reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred by Tenant with respect to the Transfer in question, and
(iii) the reasonable cost of improvements installed in the premises at the cost
and expense of Tenant for the benefit of the subtenant.

             15.6 Corporations and Partnerships. If Tenant is a partnership, any
withdrawal or substitution (whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of
law and whether occurring at one time or over a period of time) of any
partner(s) owning fifty percent (50%) or more of the partnership, any
assignments) of fifty percent (50%) or more (cumulatively) of any interest in
the capital or profits of the partnership, or the dissolution of the partnership
shall be deemed a Transfer of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Lease, Tenant may, without Landlord's prior written consent and
without any participation by Landlord in assignment and subletting proceeds,
sublet the Premises or assign the Lease to: (i) a subsidiary, affiliate,
division or corporation controlling, controlled by or under common control with
Tenant; (ii) a successor corporation related to Tenant by merger, consolidation,
nonbankruptcy reorganization, or government action; or (iii) a purchaser of
substantially all of Tenant's assets located in the Premises; provided, however,
that the entity occupying the Premises on the first day after the date of any
assignment, transfer or subletting of the Premises pursuant to subsections (i)
through (iii) of this Section 15.6 has a net worth that is greater than or equal
to the

                                       24
<PAGE>   31

greater of (a) the net worth of the Tenant on the Commencement Date, or (b) the
net worth of the Tenant on the day prior to the day of assignment, subletting or
transfer to such entity. For the purpose of this Lease, sale of Tenant's capital
stock through any public exchange shall not be deemed an assignment, subletting,
or any other transfer of the Lease or the Premises.

             15.7 Reasonable Provisions. Tenant expressly agrees that the
provisions of this Article 15 are not unreasonable standards or conditions for
purposes of Sections 1951.4(b)(2) and 1995.260 of the California Civil Code, as
amended from time to time.

             15.8 Reimbursement of Landlord's Costs. Tenant shall pay upon
demand Landlord's actual and reasonably incurred attorneys' fees, engineering
fees, architects fees, and fees of any other consultant engaged by Landlord for
reviewing, investigating, processing and/or documenting any requested Transfer,
whether or not Landlord's consent is granted.

        Article 16. Subordination; Lender Approval; Attornment; Estoppel
Certificates: Financial Statements.

             16.1 Subordination. Subject to section 16.2 hereof, this Lease
shall be subject and subordinate to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of
trust(including all advances thereunder, renewals, replacements, modifications,
supplements, consolidations, and extensions thereof) in any amounts) whatsoever
now or hereafter placed on or against (i) the Premises, or (ii) Landlord's
interest or estate therein, without the necessity of the execution and delivery
of any further instruments on the part of Tenant to effectuate such
subordination. If the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust constituting a
first lien against the Premises shall elect to have this Lease prior to the lien
of its mortgage or deed of trust and shall give written notice thereof to
Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage or deed of trust and,
if the holder of the first mortgage or deed of trust so specifies shall be prior
to all other mortgages and deeds of trust affecting the Premises whether this
Lease is dated prior to or subsequent to the date of such mortgage or deed of
trust or the date of the recording thereof. Any such holder of a first mortgage
or deed of trust may also require that although this Lease is made prior to such
mortgage or deed of trust, the holder's rights in connection with insurance
proceeds, condemnation proceeds, other liens and/or other matters described by
such holder may be made senior to this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder,
and Tenant shall subordinate this Lease and Tenant's rights hereunder to any or
all such matters as requested by such holder.

             16.2 Subordination Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Lease, this Lease shall not be subject to or subordinate to any
ground or underlying lease or to any lien, mortgage, deed of trust, or security
interest now or hereafter affecting the Premises, nor shall Tenant be required
to execute any documents subordinating this Lease, unless the ground lessor,
lender, or other holder of the interest to which this Lease shall be
subordinated contemporaneously executes a recognition and nondisturbance
agreement which (i) provides that this Lease shall not be terminated so long as
Tenant is not in default under this Lease and (ii) subject to modifications of
this Lease permitted by section 16.3 below, recognizes all of Tenant's

                                       25
<PAGE>   32

rights hereunder. Tenant shall execute and deliver within five (5) business days
after demand, without charge therefor, such further instruments evidencing
subordination of this Lease to ground or underlying leases and/or to the lien of
any first mortgages or deeds of trust affecting the Premises as may be required
by Landlord; provided that such mortgagee or beneficiary under such mortgage or
deed of trust or lessor under such ground or underlying lease agrees in writing
that this Lease shall not be terminated in the event of any foreclosure if
Tenant is not in default under this Lease at the time of such foreclosure.
Tenant's failure to execute and timely deliver such instruments evidencing
subordination of this Lease shall constitute a Default by Tenant hereunder.

             16.3 Approval by Lenders. Tenant recognizes that the provisions of
this Lease may be subject to the approval of any financial institution that may
make a loan secured by a new or subsequent deed of trust or mortgage affecting
the Premises if Landlord refinances or otherwise modifies any existing financing
on the Premises. If the financial institution should require, as a condition to
such financing, any modifications of this Lease, including without limitation,
modification of the provisions relating to damage to and/or condemnation of the
Premises, Tenant agrees to execute the appropriate amendments; provided,
however, that no modification shall increase the Rentals payable by Tenant
hereunder or materially increase any other obligation of Tenant or materially
decreases any right of Tenant. Failure of Tenant to execute and deliver to
Landlord any such amendment within five business days after demand shall
constitute a Default by Tenant hereunder.

             16.4 Attornment. In the event of foreclosure or the exercise of the
power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust made by Landlord and covering
the Premises, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or
sale and recognize such purchaser as the Landlord under this Lease, provided
such purchaser expressly agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of the
Lease.

             16.5 Estoppel Certificates and Financial Statements.

                  16.5.1 Delivery by Tenant. Tenant shall, within five business
days following request by Landlord therefor and without charge, execute and
deliver to Landlord any and all documents requested by Landlord in connection
with the sale or financing of the Premises or any lender making a loan affecting
the Premises, including without limitation estoppel certificates and current
financial statements of Tenant. Landlord may require that any estoppel
certificates shall (i) certify that this Lease is unmodified and in full force
and effect (or, if modified, state the nature of such modification and certify
that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and has not been
assigned, (ii) certify the date to which Rentals are paid in advance, if any,
(iii) acknowledge that there are not, to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured
defaults on the part of Landlord hereunder, or specify such defaults if claimed,
(iv) evidence the status of this Lease as may be required either by a lender
making a loan to Landlord to be secured by a deed of trust or mortgage covering
the Premises or a purchaser of the Premises from Landlord, (v) warrant that in
the event any beneficiary of any security instrument encumbering the Premises

                                       26
<PAGE>   33

forecloses on the security instrument or sells the Premises pursuant to any
power of sale contained in such security instrument, such beneficiary and its
transferee shall not be liable for the Security Deposit or for any claim of
damages or set off as a result of any pre-foreclosures or pre-sale breach by
Landlord, (vi) certify the date Tenant entered into occupancy of the Premises
and that Tenant is conducting business at the Premises, and (vii) certify such
other matters relating to the Lease and/or Premises as may be requested by a
lender making a loan to Landlord or a purchaser of the Premises from Landlord.
Any such estoppel certificate may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective
purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises. Any financial statements of Tenant
shall include an opinion of a certified public accountant (if available) and a
balance sheet and profit and loss statement for the most recent fiscal year, all
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied. Upon ten (10) days prior written request from Landlord
(which Landlord may make at any time during the Lease Term but not more often
than two (2) times any calendar year), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a
current financial statement of Tenant. Landlord shall have a reciprocal
obligation to provide an estoppel certificate for the benefit of Tenant. If
Landlord shall fail to respond within ten (10) days of receipt by Landlord of a
written request by Tenant for such a certificate, Landlord shall be deemed to
have certified that the Lease is in full force and effect, that there are no
uncured defaults in Landlord's performance, that the security deposit is as
stated in the Lease, and that not more than one 91) month's Rent has been paid
in advance.

                  16.5.2 Failure to Deliver. Tenant's failure to timely deliver
an estoppel certificate as required pursuant to Section 16.5.1 above shall be
conclusive upon Tenant that (i) this Lease is in full force and effect, without
modification except as may be represented by Landlord, (ii) there are now no
uncured defaults in Landlord's performance, (iii) no Rentals have been paid in
advance except those that are set forth in this Lease, (iv) no beneficiary of
any security instrument encumbering the Premises or its transferee shall be
liable for the Security Deposit or for any claim of damages or set off as a
result of any pre-foreclosure or pre-sale breach by Landlord in the event of a
foreclosure or sale under such security instrument, and (v) Tenant has entered
into occupancy of the Premises on such date as may be represented by Landlord
and is open and conducting business at the Premises. Tenant's failure to timely
deliver any financial statements or estoppel certificates as required pursuant
to Section 16.5.1 above shall be a Default by Tenant.

        Article 17. Remedies Upon Default by Tenant.

             17.1 Events of Default. The term "Default by Tenant" shall mean the
occurrence of any of the following events:

             17.1.1 Failure by Tenant to pay when due any Rentals required or
due hereunder when such failure continues for more than five (5) days after
written demand for payment is delivered by Landlord to Tenant;

of substantially all assets of Tenant available by law for the satisfaction of

that if performance or observance requires more than ten (10) days (and cannot
be accomplished by the payment of money) then so long as Tenant initiates the
performance or observance within said ten (10) days and thereafter diligently
pursues same to completion no Default by Tenant shall be deemed to have
occurred.

             17.2 Rights of Landlord Upon Tenant's Default. Upon any Default by
Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease and Tenant's right
to possession of the Premises by giving written notice of termination to Tenant,

which had been earned at the time of termination;

                  17.2.2 The worth at the time of award of the amount by which

elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 17.2 above, this Lease shall
continue in effect after the Default by Tenant and Landlord may enforce all
rights and remedies under this Lease, including without limitation, the right to
recover payment of Rentals as they become due. Neither efforts by Landlord to
mitigate damages caused by a Default by Tenant nor the acceptance of any Rentals
shall constitute a waiver by Landlord of any of Landlord's rights or remedies,
including the rights and remedies specified in Section 17.2 above. The rights of
Landlord under this Article 17 shall be additional to all other rights to which
Landlord is entitled in accordance with applicable law.

             17.4 Reletting Premises. Upon Default by Tenant, Landlord may, at
Landlord's election, reenter the Premises, and without terminating this Lease,
and at any time and from time to time, relet the Premises or any part or parts
thereof for the account and in the name of Tenant or otherwise. Landlord may at
Landlord's election eject Tenant or any of Tenant's subtenants, assignees or
other persons claiming any right in or through this Lease. Tenant shall
nevertheless pay to Landlord on the due date specified in this Lease all Rentals
required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, plus Landlord's expenses, less
the proceeds of any sublease or reletting. The expenses allowed Landlord shall
include without limitation costs paid to retake possession of the Premises
(including attorneys' fees), costs to place the Premises in its original
condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, costs to secure new tenants
(including broker's commissions and attorneys' fees) and costs to fulfill all of
Tenant's covenants and conditions hereunder to the end of the Lease Term. No act
by or on behalf of Landlord under this Section 17.4 shall constitute a
termination of this Lease unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice of
termination. Notwithstanding any prior reletting without termination, Landlord
may later elect to terminate this Lease because of Default by Tenant.

             17.5 Attorneys' Fees. Tenant shall pay reasonable fees and costs of
attorneys engaged by Landlord in collection of Rentals or to enforce any of
Landlord's rights and remedies under this Article 17 and applicable law.

             17.6 Waiver of Jury Trial. Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives
trial by jury in any action or proceeding arising out of this Lease or its
execution or negotiation whether based on contract or tort and whether brought
by either Landlord or Tenant.

             17.7 Waiver of Rights of Redemption. In the event Landlord (i)
lawfully terminates Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, or (ii) if
Tenant abandons same or the Lease otherwise terminates (whether by the
expiration of the period set forth in a notice of default, decision of a court,
or otherwise), Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights to recover or
regain possession of the Premises or to reinstate or redeem this Lease to which
it may be entitled by or under any present or future law including without
limitation, Section 1174 and 1179 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. In
addition, Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all right to bring any action
whatsoever against any tenant taking possession of the Premises after Tenant has
been dispossessed or evicted hereunder or has abandoned, delivered, or

                                       30
<PAGE>   37

surrendered possession of the Premises, or to make any such tenant a party to
any action brought by Tenant against Landlord.

             17.8 Default and Litigation Notice Provisions. For purposes of Code
of Civil Procedure Section 1162, Tenant's "place of residence" and "usual place
of business" shall be the Premises and for purposes of Code of Civil Procedure
Sections 1011 and 1013, concerning service of notices or papers during
litigation, "residence" and "office" of Tenant shall mean and be the Premises
until Tenant has released actual and legal possession of the Premises to
Landlord or has appeared in such litigation by California licensed legal
counsel.

             17.9 Remedies are Cumulative. Each of the remedies provided
Landlord hereunder cumulative with and in addition to all other rights and
remedies now or hereafter allowed either hereunder or by law, equity or
agreement of the parties.

        Article 18. Holding Over.

             18.1 Holding Over. This Lease shall terminate without further
notice at the expiration of the Lease Term. Any holding over by Tenant after the
expiration of the Lease Term shall not constitute a renewal or extension of the
Lease Term or give Tenant any rights in or to the Premises except as expressly
provided in this Lease. Any holding over after the expiration of the Lease Term,
with the express consent of Landlord, shall be construed to be a tenancy from
month to month, at one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent for the
month preceding the expiration of the Lease Term in addition to all Additional
Rent payable hereunder, and shall otherwise be on the terms and conditions
herein specified insofar as applicable. If Tenant remains in possession of the
Premises after expiration of the Lease Term or other Lease Termination without
Landlord's consent, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against any loss or
liability resulting from Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises, including
without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant based on delay in
the availability of the Premises.

        Article 19. Notices.

             19.1 Service of Notices. Any notice required or desired to be given
under this Lease shall be in writing with copies directed as indicated and shall
be personally served or given by certified mail. Any notice given by mail shall
be deemed to have been given when served or, if mailed (certified, return
receipt requested and postage prepaid) three business days after mailing,
addressed to the party to be served with a copy as indicated herein. Either
party may change its address for purposes of notice by giving notice of such
change of address to the other party in accordance with the provisions of this
Article 19, provided that Notices of Default by Tenant or otherwise related to
demands for performance by Tenant may always be served at the Premises while
Tenant is in possession. At the date of execution of this Lease, the addresses
of the parties are:

bring any action or legal proceeding for damages for an alleged breach of any

<PAGE>   39

        Article 22. Landlord Default.

             22.1 No Default Without Notice. Landlord shall not be in default
under this Lease unless Tenant shall have given Landlord written notice of the
breach and, within thirty days after notice, Landlord has not cured the breach
or, if the breach is such that it cannot reasonably be cured under the
circumstances within thirty days, has not commenced to the cure within said
thirty (30) days and thereafter diligently pursued same to completion. In the
event of any default on the part of Landlord under this Lease, Tenant shall give
notice of same by certified mail, return receipt requested, to any beneficiary
of a deed of trust or mortgagee of a mortgage, affecting the Premises whose
address shall have been furnished to it, and shall offer such beneficiary or
mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure the default, including time to obtain
possession of the Premises by power of sale or judicial foreclosure, if such
should prove necessary to effect a cure.

        Article 23. Limitation on Landlord Liability.

             23.1 No Personal Liability. Any money judgment attained by Tenant
(whether tort or contract and including costs and attorneys' fees) based upon
Landlord's breach of this Lease or of a duty or claims arising out of this Lease
or in connection with this Lease and its subject matters shall be satisfied only
out of Landlord's insurance and the proceeds of the sale or disposition of
Landlord's interest in the Premises (whether by Landlord or by execution of
judgment) and Landlord shall have no personal liability therefor. In no event
shall Landlord or its agents be liable to Tenant for consequential damages,
including without limitation, lost profits or lost goodwill and Tenant waives
any right to assert claims for same against Landlord or its agents.

        Article 24. Quiet Enjoyment.

             24.1 Express Conditional Covenant. Landlord covenants and agrees
with Tenant that upon Tenant paying Rentals and timely performing all of its
covenants and conditions under the Lease, Tenant shall and may peaceably and
quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Lease Term, subject, however,
to the terms of this Lease and any mortgages or deeds of trust affecting the
Premises, and the rights reserved by Landlord hereunder.

        Article 25. Surrender.

             25.1 Free of Liens. Tenant shall vacate and deliver possession of
the Premises free and clear of all liens, charges, or encumbrances thereon

violations of applicable laws of any federal, state, municipal, or other agency

damage, costs, and attorneys' fees arising out of Tenant's failure to do so.

                                       33
<PAGE>   40

        Article 26. Waiver.

             26.1 No Implied Waiver. The waiver by Landlord of any breach of any
term, covenant or condition herein contained (or the acceptance by Landlord of
any performance by Tenant after the time the same shall become due) shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or any subsequent
breach thereof or of any other term, covenant or condition herein contained,
unless otherwise expressly agreed to by Landlord in writing. The acceptance by
Landlord of any sum less than that which is required to be paid by Tenant shall
be deemed to have been received only on account of the obligation for which it
is paid (or for which it is allocated by Landlord, in Landlord's absolute
discretion, if Tenant does not designate the obligation as to which the payment
should be credited), and shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction
notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary written on any check or contained
in any letter of transmittal. No custom or practice which may arise between the
parties hereto in the administration of the terms of this Lease shall be
construed as a waiver or diminution of Landlord's right to demand performance by
Tenant in strict accordance with the terms of this Lease.

        Article 27. Entire Agreement.

             27.1 Integration Provision. Any agreements, warranties, or
representations not expressly contained herein shall in no way bind either
Landlord or Tenant, and Landlord and Tenant expressly waive all claims for
damages by reason of any statement, representation, warranty, promise or
agreement, if any, not contained in this Lease. This Lease supersedes and
cancels any and all previous negotiations, arrangements, brochures, agreements
and understandings, whether written or oral, between Landlord and its agents and
Tenant and its agents with respect to the Premises or this Lease. This Lease
constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto and is intended by
the parties as a final expression of their agreement and may not be contradicted
by evidence of any prior argument or of a contemporaneous oral agreement. This
Lease is further intended by the parties as a complete and exclusive statement
of the terms of the parties agreement and may not be explained or supplemented
by evidence of consistent additional terms. No addition to, or modification of,
any term or provision of this Lease shall be effective until and unless set
forth in a written instrument signed by both Landlord and Tenant.

        Article 28. Landlord's Right to Perform Tenant's Covenants.

             28.1 Landlord May Perform. If Tenant shall at any time fail to make
any payment or perform any other act on its part to be made or performed under
this Lease, including without limitation the payments and obligations described
in Article 6, Article 7 and Article 10, Landlord may upon fifteen days written
notice to Tenant, but shall not be obligated to, and without waiving or
releasing Tenant from any obligation under this Lease, make such payment or
perform such other act to the extent that Landlord may deem desirable, and in
connection therewith, pay expenses and employ counsel. All sums so paid by
Landlord and all penalties, interest and costs

                                       34
<PAGE>   41

in connections therewith shall be due and payable by Tenant as Additional Rent
upon demand.

        Article 29. Guaranty.

             29.1 [Intentionally Omitted].

        Article 30. General.

             30.1 Headings. The section and subsection headings used in this
Lease are for convenience of reference only. They shall not be construed to
limit or extend the meaning of any part of this Lease, and shall not be deemed
relevant in resolving any question of interpretation or construction of any
section of this Lease.

             30.2 Definition of Landlord. The term "Landlord" as used in this
Lease, so far as the covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord are
concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner at the time in
question of the fee title to the Premises. In the event of any transfer of such
interest, the Landlord herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers or
conveyances, the then grantor) shall from and after the date of such transfer or
conveyance be automatically freed and relieved of all liability with respect to
performance to any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in
this Lease which are to be performed or first arise on and after the date of
such transfer or conveyance. The covenants and obligations contained in this
Lease on the part of Landlord shall, subject to the provisions of this Section
30.2, be binding upon each Landlord and its heirs, personal representatives,
successors and assigns only during its respective period of ownership. Except as
provided in this Section 30.2, this Lease shall not be affected by any transfer
of Landlord's interest in the Premises, and Tenant shall attorn to any
transferee of Landlord provided that all of Landlord's obligations hereunder are
assumed in writing by such transferee.

             30.3 Exhibits. All exhibits attached to this Lease shall be deemed
to be incorporated herein by the individual reference to each such exhibit, and
all such exhibits shall be deemed to be a part of this Lease as though set forth
in full in the body of the Lease.

             30.4 Definition of Agents. For purposes of this Lease and without
otherwise affecting the definition of the word "agent" or the meaning of
"agency," the term "agents" shall be deemed to include the agents, employees,
servants, invitees, contractors, successors, guests, customers, subcontractors,
representatives, partners, affiliated companies, and any other person or entity
related in any way to the respective party, Landlord or Tenant.

             30.5 Interpretation of Terms. The words "Landlord" and "Tenant" as
used herein shall include the plural as well as the singular. Words used in
neuter gender include the masculine and feminine and words in the masculine or
feminine gender include the neuter.

             30.6 Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in counterparts, each
of which

                                       35
<PAGE>   42

shall be deemed an original, but such counterparts when taken together shall be
deemed one agreement.

             30.7 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence as to each and every
provision in this Lease requiring performance or observance by Tenant within a
specified time.

             30.8 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained herein, shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
shall not affect any other provision of this Lease, but this Lease shall be
construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had not been
contained herein. However, if Tenant's obligation to pay the Rentals is
determined to be invalid or unenforceable, this Lease at the option of Landlord
shall terminate.

             30.9 Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by
Tenant, or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger and shall, at
the option of Landlord, terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenants,
or may, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to Landlord of any
or all such subleases of subtenants.

             30.10 Governing Law. This Lease shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of California.

             30.11 Authority. Each individual executing this Lease on behalf of
a corporation, limited liability company or partnership represents and warrants
that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of
and as the act of said entity in accordance with the bylaws or other governing
agreement of said entity, and this Lease is binding upon and enforceable against
said entity in accordance with its terms.

             30.12 Irrevocable Offer to Lease. Once signed by Tenant and
delivered to Landlord, this Lease shall constitute an irrevocable offer to Lease
which shall lapse automatically five business days thereafter if not signed and
returned by Landlord within said five business days.

             30.13 Representation by Legal Counsel. Tenant warrants and
represents that it has been represented by independent legal counsel of its
choice with respect to the negotiation and execution of this Lease and has fully
represented and accepts the legal implications and consequences of each and
every provision hereof and agrees that no provision is unenforceable as being
unconscionable, under Civil Code Section 1670.5 or on any other grounds, and
waives any right to claim otherwise.

other real estate broker or agent who is entitled to a commission or finder's

party shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless the other party
against all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, lawsuits, judgments, and costs
and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) for any leasing commission,
finder's fee, or equivalent compensation alleged to be owing on account of the

Brokers. The terms of this section shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of the Lease Term.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Lease as of the date set
forth above.
