ELECTRICITY                 TWENTY-SECOND: -- Lessee agrees that Lessor may
                       furnish electricity to Lessee on a "submetering" basis or
                       on a "rent inclusion" basis.

                            (a) Submetering: If and so long as Lessor provides
                       electricity to the demised premises on a submetering
                       basis. Lessee covenants and agrees to purchase the same
                       from Lessor or Lessor's designated agent at charges,
                       terms and rates set, from time to lime, during the term
                       of this lease by Lessor but not more than those specified

                            **Landlord shall endeavor to minimize interference
                       with Tenant's business.

                                        6

in the service classification in effect on January 1,
1970 pursuant to which Lessor then purchased electric
current from the public utility corporation serving the
part of the city where the building is located; provided,
however, said charges shall be increased in the same
percentage as any percentage increase in the billing to
Lessor for electricity for the entire building, by reason
of increase in Lessor's electric rates or service
classifications, subsequent to January 1, 1970, and so as
to reflect any increase in Lessor's electric charges,
fuel adjustment, or by taxes or charges of any kind
imposed on Lessor's electricity purchases, or for any
other such reason, subsequent to said date. Any such
percentage increase in Lessor's billing for electricity
due to changes in rates or service classifications shall
be computed by the application of the average consumption
(energy and demand) of electricity for the entire
building for the twelve (12) full months immediately
prior to the rate and/or service classification change,
or any changed methods of or rules on billing for same,
on a consistent basis to the new rate and/or service
classification and to the service classification in
effect on January 1, 1970. If the average consumption of
electricity for the entire building for said prior twelve
(12) months cannot reasonably be applied and used with
respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then
the percentage increase shall be computed by the use of
the average consumption (energy and demand) for the
entire building for the first three (3) months after such
change, projected to a full twelve (12) months; and that
same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to the
service classification in effect on January 1, 1970.
Where more than one meter measures the service of Lessee
in the building, the service rendered through each meter
may be computed and billed separately in accordance with
the rates herein. Bills therefore shall be rendered at
such times as Lessor may elect and the amount, as
computed from a meter, shall be deemed to be, and be paid
as, additional rent. In the event that such bills are not
paid within five (5) days after the same are rendered.
Lessor may, without further notice, discontinue the
service of electric current to the demised premises
without releasing Lessee from any liability under this
lease and without Lessor or Lessor's agent incurring any
liability for any damage or loss sustained by Lessee by
such discontinuance of service. If any tax is imposed
upon Lessor's receipt from the sale or resale of
electrical energy or gas or telephone service to Lessee
by any Federal, State or Municipal Authority, Lessee
covenants and agrees that, where permitted by law,
Lessee's pro-rata share of such taxes shall be passed on
to, and included in the bill of, and paid by, Lessee to
Lessor.

(b) Rent Inclusion: If and so long as Lessor provides
electricity to the demised premises on a rent inclusion
basis, Lessee agrees that the fixed annual rent shall be
increased by the amount of the Electricity Rent Inclusion
Factor ("ERIF"), as hereinafter defined. Lessee
acknowledges and agrees (i) that the fixed annual rent
hereinabove set forth in this lease does not yet, but is
to include an ERIF of $2.95 per rentable square foot to
compensate Lessor for electrical wiring and other
installations necessary for, and for its obtaining and
making available to Lessee the redistribution of,
electric current as an additional service; and (ii) that
said ERIF, which shall be subject to periodic adjustments
as hereinafter provided, has been partially based upon an
estimate of the Lessee's connected electrical load, which
shall be deemed to be the demand (KW), and hours of use
thereof, which shall be deemed to be the energy (KWH) for
ordinary lighting and light office equipment and the
operation of the usual small business machines, including
Xerox or other copying machines (such lighting and
equipment are hereinafter called "Ordinary Equipment")
during ordinary business hours ("ordinary business hours"
shall be deemed to mean 50 hours per week), with Lessor
providing an average connected load of 4 1/2 watts of
electricity for all purposes per rentable square foot.
Any installation and use of equipment other than Ordinary
Equipment and/or any connected load and/or any energy
usage by Lessee in excess of the foregoing shall result
in adjustment of the ERIF as hereinafter provided. For
purposes of this Article the rentable square foot area of
the presently demised premises shall be deemed to be
10,624 square feet.

If the cost to Lessor of electricity shall have been, or
shall be, increased or decreased subsequent to May 1,
1993 (whether such change occurs prior to or during the
term of this lease), by change in Lessor's electric rates
or service classifications, or by any increase,
subsequent to the last such electric rate or service
classification change, in fuel adjustments or charges of
any kind, or by taxes, imposed on Lessor's electricity
purchases, or for any other such reason, then the ERIF,
which is a portion of the fixed annual rent, shall be
changed in the same percentage as any such change in cost
due to changes in electric rates or service
classifications, and, also, Lessee's payment obligation,
for electricity redistribution, shall change from time to
time so as to reflect any such increase in fuel
adjustments or charges, and taxes. Any such percentage
increases in Lessor's cost due to changes in electric
rates or service classifications shall be computed by the
application of the average consumption (energy and
demand) of electricity for the entire building for the
twelve (12) full months immediately prior to the rate
and/or service classification change, other change in
cost, or any changed methods of or rules on billing for
same, on a consistent basis to the new rate and/or
service classification and to the immediately prior
existing

                                        7

                       rate and/or service classifications. If the average
                       consumption of electricity for the entire building for
                       said prior twelve (12) months cannot reasonably be
                       applied and used with respect to changed methods of or
                       rules on billing, then the percentage increase shall be
                       computed by the use of the average consumption (energy
                       and demand) for the entire building for the first three
                       (3) months after such change, projected to a full twelve
                       (12) months, so as to reflect the different seasons; and
                       the same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to
                       the rate and/or service classification which existed
                       immediately prior to the change.

                       The parties agree that a reputable, independent
                       electrical consultant, selected by Lessor ("Lessor's
                       electrical consultant"), shall determine the percentage
                       change for the changes in the ERIF due to Lessor's
                       changed costs, and that Lessor's electrical consultant
                       may from time to time make surveys in the demised
                       premises of the electrical equipment and fixtures and the
                       use of current. (i) If any such survey shall reflect an
                       average connected load in the demised premises in excess
                       of 4 1/2 watts of electricity for all purposes per
                       rentable square foot and/or energy usage in excess of
                       ordinary business hours (each such excess is hereinafter
                       called "excess electricity") then the connected load
                       and/or the hours of use portion(s) of the then existing
                       ERIF shall each be increased by an amount which is equal
                       to a fraction of the then existing ERIF, the numerator of
                       which is the excess electricity (i.e. excess connected
                       load and/or excess usage) and the denominator of which is
                       the average connected load and/or the usage thereof which
                       was the basis for the computation of the then existing
                       ERIF. Such fractions shall be determined by Lessor's
                       electrical consultant. The fixed annual rent shall then
                       be appropriately adjusted, effective as of the date of
                       any such change in connected load and/or usage, as
                       disclosed by said survey. (ii) If such survey shall
                       disclose installation and use of other than Ordinary
                       Equipment, then effective as of the date of said survey,
                       there shall be added to the ERIF portion of the fixed
                       annual rent (computed and fixed as hereinabove described)
                       an additional amount equal to what would be paid under
                       the SC-4 Rate I Service Classification in effect on May
                       1, 1993 (and not the time-of-day rate schedule) for such
                       load and usage of electricity, with the connected load
                       deemed to be the demand (KW) and the hours of use thereof
                       deemed to be the energy (KWH), as hereinbefore provided,
                       (which addition to the ERIF shall be increased or
                       decreased by all electricity cost changes of Lessor, as
                       hereinabove provided, from May 1, 1993 through the date
                       of billing).

                       In no event, whether because of surveys or for any other
                       reason, is the originally specified $2.95 per rentable
                       square fool ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent (plus
                       any net increase thereof, but not decrease, by virtue of
                       all electric rate or service classification changes
                       subsequent to May 1, 1993) to be reduced.

                       (c) General Conditions: The determinations by Lessor's
                       electrical consultant shall be binding and conclusive on
                       Lessor and on Lessee from and after the delivery of
                       copies of such determinations to Lessor and Lessee,
                       unless, within fifteen (15) days after delivery thereof,
                       Lessee disputes such determination. If Lessee so disputes
                       the determination, it shall at its own expense, obtain
                       from a reputable, independent electrical consultant its
                       own determinations in accordance with the provisions of
                       this Article. Lessee's consultant and Lessor's consultant
                       then shall seek to agree. If they cannot agree within
                       thirty (30) days they shall choose a third reputable
                       electrical consultant, whose cost shall be shared equally
                       by the parties, to make similar determinations which
                       shall be controlling. (If they cannot agree on such third
                       consultant within (10) days, then either party may apply
                       to the Supreme Court in the County of New York for such
                       appointment.) However, pending such controlling
                       determinations, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount of
                       additional rent or ERIF in accordance with the
                       determinations of Lessor's electrical consultant. If the
                       controlling determinations differ from Lessor's
                       electrical consultant, then the parties shall promptly
                       make adjustment for any deficiency owed by Lessor or
                       overage paid by Lessee.

                       At the option of Lessor, Lessee agrees to purchase from
                       Lessor or its agents all lamps and bulbs used in the
                       demised premises and to pay for the cost of installation
                       thereof. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessor for any
                       loss or damage or expense which Lessee may sustain or
                       incur if either the quantity or character of electric
                       service is changed or is no longer available or suitable
                       for Lessee's requirements. Lessee covenants and agrees
                       that at all times its use of electric current shall never
                       exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the building
                       or the risers or wiring installation. Lessee agrees not
                       to connect any additional electrical equipment to the
                       building electric distribution system, other than lamps,
                       typewriters and other small office machines which consume
                       comparable amounts of electricity, without Lessor's prior
                       written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
                       withheld. Any riser or risers to supply Lessee's
                       electrical requirements, upon written request of Lessee,
                       will be installed by Lessor, at the sole cost and expense
                       of Lessee, if, in Lessor's sole judgment, the same are
                       necessary and will not cause permanent damage or injury
                       to the building or demised premises or cause or create a
                       dangerous or

                                        8

hazardous condition or entail excessive or unreasonable
alterations, repairs or expense or interfere with or
disturb other tenants or occupants. In addition to the
installation of such riser or risers, Lessor will also at
the sole cost and expense of Lessee, install all other
equipment proper and necessary in connection therewith
subject to the aforesaid terms and conditions. The
parties acknowledge that they understand that it is
anticipated that electric rates, charges, etc., may be
changed by virtue of time-of-day rates or other methods
of billing, and that the references in the foregoing two
paragraphs to changes in methods of or rules on billing
are intended to include any such changes. Supplementing
Article 53 hereof, if all or part of the submetering
additional rent or the ERIF payable in accordance with
Subdivision (A) or (B) of this Article becomes
uncollectible or reduced or refunded by virtue of any
law, order or regulation, the parties agree that, at
Lessor's option, in lieu of submetering additional rent
or ERIF, and in consideration of Lessee's use of the
building's electrical distribution system and receipt of
redistributed electricity and payment by Lessor of
consultants' fees and other redistribution costs, the
fixed annual rental rate(s) to be paid under this Lease
shall be increased by an "alternative charge" which shall
be a sum equal to $2.95 per year per rentable sq. ft. of
the demised premises, changed in the same percentage as
any changes in the cost to Lessor for electricity for the
entire building subsequent to May 1, 1993, because of
electric rate or service classification changes, as in
Subdivision (B) hereof provided, and such percentage
change to be computed as in Subdivision (B) provided. The
Lessor reserves the right, at any time upon thirty (30)
days' written notice, to change its furnishing of
electricity to Lessee from a rent inclusion basis to a
submetering basis, or vice versa. The Lessor reserves the
right to terminate the furnishing of electricity on a
rent inclusion, submetering, or any other basis at any
time, upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the
Lessee, in which event the Lessee may make application
directly to the public utility for the Lessee's entire
separate supply of electric current and Lessor shall
permit its wires and conduits, to the extent available
and safely capable, to be used for such purpose. Any
meters, risers or other equipment or connections
necessary to furnish electricity on a submetering basis
or to enable Lessee to obtain electric current directly
from such utility shall be installed at Lessee's sole
cost and expense. Only rigid conduit or electricity metal
tubing (EMT) will be allowed. The Lessor, upon the
expiration of the aforesaid thirty (30) days' written
notice to the Lessee may discontinue furnishing the
electric current but this lease shall otherwise remain in
full force and effect. If Lessee was provided electricity
on a rent inclusion basis when it was so discontinued,
then commencing when Lessee receives such direct service
and as long as Lessee shall continue to receive such
service, the fixed annual rental rate payable under this
lease shall be reduced by the amount of the ERIF which
was payable immediately prior to such discontinuance of
electricity on a rent inclusion basis.

TWENTY-THIRD:-(a) If Landlord installs a water meter to
measure Tenant's water consumption for all purposes,
Tenant shall pay Landlord for the cost of the meter and
the cost of the installation thereof and throughout the
duration of Tenant's occupancy Tenant shall keep said

default in making such payment Landlord may pay such
charges and collect the same from Tenant. Landlord may
inspect such water meter at any time and shall have
access thereto at all times for the purpose of such
inspection.

(b) In addition to the foregoing, Tenant agrees to pay
its proportionate share of the water consumed in the
toilets and other portions of the premises over which
Landlord may reserve control, irrespective of the fact
that the same shall be located outside of the demised
premises.

(c) Tenant covenants and agrees to pay its pro-rata share
of the sewer rent, charge or any other tax, rent levy or
charge which now or hereafter is assessed, imposed or a

                       look solely to Lessor's estate and interest in the land
                       and building, or the lease of the building or of the land
                       and building, and the demised premises, for the
                       satisfaction of any right or remedy of Lessee for the
                       collection of a judgment (or other judicial process)
                       requiring the payment of money by Lessor, in the event of
                       any liability by Lessor, and no other property or assets
                       of Lessor shall be subject to levy, execution or other
                       enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of Lessee's
                       remedies under or with respect to this lease, the
                       relationship of landlord and tenant hereunder, or
                       Lessee's use and occupancy of the demised premises or any
                       other liability of Lessor to Lessee (except for
                       negligence).

SUBORDINATION               THIRTY-FOURTH:-- This lease is and shall be subject
                       and subordinate at all times to all present or future
                       leases and subleases of the entire building or of the
                       land and entire building of which the demised premises
                       form a part, and to all mortgages which now affect or may
                       hereafter affect or be made in respect of such leases and
                       subleases or the real property of which the demised
                       premises form a part (whether or not such leases or
                       mortgages also affect any other or additional real
                       property), and to all renewals, modifications,
                       consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof, and
                       to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the
                       security thereof. This clause shall be self-operative and
                       no further instrument in writing to effectuate such
                       subordination shall be necessary. In confirmation of such
                       subordination, however. Tenant shall, on demand, promptly
                       execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments
                       or certificates that Landlord may request. Tenant hereby
                       irrevocably appoints Landlord the attorney-in-fact of
                       Tenant to execute, acknowledge and deliver any such
                       instrument or certificate for or on behalf of Tenant. In
                       the event that any Master Lease or any other ground or
                       underlying lease is terminated, or any mortgage
                       foreclosed, this lease shall not terminate or be
                       terminable by Lessee unless Lessee was specifically named
                       in any termination or foreclosure judgment or final
                       order. In the event that the Master Lease or any other
                       ground or underlying lease is terminated as aforesaid.
                       Lessee agrees to enter into a new lease covering the
                       within premises, for the remaining term of this lease and
                       otherwise on the same terms, conditions and rentals as
                       herein provided, with and at the election of the holder
                       of any superior lease, or if there is no superior lease
                       in existence, then with and at the election of the holder
                       of the fee title to the premises. If the current term of
                       the Master Lease shall expire prior to the date set forth
                       herein for the expiration of this lease, then, unless
                       Lessor, at its sole option, shall have elected to extend
                       or renew the term of the Master Lease, the term of this
                       lease shall expire on the date of expiration of the
                       Master Lease, notwithstanding the later expiration date
                       hereinabove set forth. If the Master Lease is renewed,
                       then the term of this lease shall expire as hereinabove
                       set forth. From time to time. Lessee, on at least ten
                       (10) days' prior written request by Lessor, will deliver
                       to Lessor a statement in writing certifying that this
                       lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if
                       there shall have been modifications, that the same is in
                       full force and effect as modified and stating the
                       modifications) and the dates to which the rent and other
                       charges have been paid and stating whether or not the
                       Lessor is in default in performance of any covenant,
                       agreement or condition contained in this lease and, if
                       so, specifying each such default of which Lessee may have
                       knowledge. This paragraph shall not be deemed modified in
                       whole or in part by any provision of this lease or any
                       rider thereto during the term hereof, unless such
                       provisions or rider shall by its terms expressly so
                       modify it.

FIRE                        THIRTY-FIFTH: -- Provided the damage be not caused
                       by the fault or neglect of Tenant or of its employees,
                       agents, visitors or licensees, in the event of damage by
                       fire, or other action of the elements, to the demised
                       premises not rendering all of them unfit for occupancy.
                       Landlord shall repair the same with reasonable dispatch
                       after notice of such damage, and the rent accrued or
                       accruing shall not cease: but if the damage be so
                       extensive, as to render all of the demised premises
                       untenantable, the rent shall cease until they be
                       repaired, provided the damage be not caused by the
                       carelessness or negligence of Tenant or of the agents or
                       servants of Tenant. No penalty shall accrue for
                       reasonable delay which may arise by reason of adjustment
                       of insurance on the part of Landlord and/or Tenant, and
                       for reasonable delay on account of "labor troubles" or
                       any other cause beyond Landlord's control. If the demised
                       premises are totally damaged or are rendered wholly
                       untenantable by fire or other cause, and if Landlord
                       shall decide not to restore or not to rebuild the same,
                       or if the building shall be so damaged that Landlord
                       shall decide to demolish it or to rebuild it or if the
                       cost of restoration of the

                                       12

building of which the demised premises are a part,
resulting from the aforesaid fire or other casualty shall
exceed the sum of $3.000.000, then or in any of such
events Landlord may, within ninety (90) days after such
fire or other cause, give Tenant a notice in writing of
termination which notice shall be given as provided in
this lease, and thereupon the term of this lease shall
expire by lapse of time upon the third day after such
notice is given, and Tenant shall vacate the demised
premises and surrender the same to Landlord. If Tenant
shall not be in default under this lease then, upon the
termination of this lease under the conditions provided
for in the sentence immediately preceding. Tenant's
liability for rent shall cease as of the day following
the casualty. Tenant hereby expressly waives the
provisions of Section 227 of the Real Property Law and
agrees that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph
shall govern and control in lieu thereof. If the damage
or destruction be due to the fault or neglect of Tenant,
the debris shall be removed by and at the expense of
Tenant.

     THIRTY-SIXTH:--If the whole or any part of the         CONDEMNATION
demised premises shall be acquired or condemned by
Eminent Domain for any public or quasi public use or
purpose, then and in that event, the term of this lease
shall cease and terminate from the date of title vesting
in such proceeding. If any part of the land or the
building of which the demised premises are a part shall
be so acquired or condemned, then and in that event the
term of this lease, at the option of Landlord, shall
cease and terminate on ten (10) days' notice by Landlord
to Tenant. In neither event shall Tenant have any claim
for the value of any unexpired term of said lease.

     THIRTY-SEVENTH:--If, when and to the extent            BANKRUPTCY
permitted by law, the parties agree that the following
provisions shall apply to this lease and tenancy (and
that the provisions of II U.S.C. Section 365(b) shall be
applied): (a) If at any time prior to the date herein
fixed as the commencement of the term of this lease there
shall be filed against Tenant thereof or if such filing
is made by Tenant in any court pursuant to any statute
either of the United States or of any State a petition in
bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or a portion
of Tenant's property, and within thirty (30) days thereof
Tenant fails to secure a discharge thereof, or if Tenant
makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
petition for or enter into an arrangement, this lease
shall ipso facto be cancelled and terminated, and in
which event, neither Tenant nor any person claiming
through or under Tenant or by virtue of any statute or of
an order of any court shall be entitled to possession of
the demised premises and Landlord, in addition to the
other rights and remedies given by (c) hereof and by
virtue of any other provision herein or elsewhere in this
lease contained or by virtue of any statute or rule of
law, may retain as liquidated damages any rent, security,
deposit or monies, received by him from Tenant or others
in behalf of Tenant upon the execution hereof.

     (b) If at the date fixed as the commencement of the
term of this lease or if at any time during the term
hereby demised, there shall be filed against Tenant
thereof or if such filing is made by Tenant in any court
pursuant to any statute of the United States or any State
a petition of bankruptcy or insolvency or for
reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver or
trustee of all or a portion of Tenant's property, and
within thirty (30) days thereof Tenant fails to secure a
discharge thereof, or if Tenant makes an assignment for
the benefit of creditors or petition for or enter into an
arrangement, this lease, at the option of Landlord,
exercised within a reasonable time after notice of the
happening of any one or more of such events, may be
cancelled and terminated, and in which event neither
Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant by
virtue of any statute or of an order of any court shall
be entitled to possession or to remain in possession of
the premises demised, but shall forthwith quit and
surrender the premises, and Landlord, in addition to the
other rights and remedies Landlord has by virtue of any
other provision herein or elsewhere in this lease
contained or by virtue of any statute or rule of law, may
retain as liquidated damages any rent, security, deposit
or monies received by him from Tenant or others in behalf
of Tenant.

     (c) It is stipulated and agreed that in the event of
the termination of this lease pursuant to (a) or (b)
hereof. Landlord shall forthwith, notwithstanding any
other provisions of this lease to the contrary, be
entitled to recover from Tenant as and for liquidated
damages an amount equal to the difference between the
rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of the
term demised and the then fair and reasonable rental
value of the demised premises for the same period. In the
computation of such damages, the difference between any
installment of rent becoming due hereunder after the date
of termination and the fair and reasonable rental value
of the demised premises for the period for which such
installment was payable shall be discounted to the date
of termination at the rate of four percent (4%) per
annum. If such premises or any pan thereof be re-let by
Landlord for the unexpired term of said lease, or any pan
thereof, before presentation of proof of such liquidated
damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount
of rent reserved upon such re-letting shall be prima
facie to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the
pan or the whole of the premises so re-let during the
term of the re-letting. Nothing herein contained shall
limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove for and
obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such
termination, an amount equal to the maximum

                                       13

                       allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the
                       time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such
                       damages are to be proved, whether or not such amount be
                       greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the
                       difference referred to above.

SECURITY                    THIRTY-EIGHTH:--Tenant has deposited with Landlord
                       the sum of $ 13,536.00 as security for the faithful
                       performance and observance by Tenant of the terms,
                       provisions and conditions of this lease; it is agreed
                       that in the event Tenant defaults in respect of any of
                       the terms, provisions and conditions of this lease,
                       including, but not limited to, the payment of rent and
                       additional rent. Landlord may use, apply or retain the
                       whole or any part of the security so deposited to the
                       extent required for the payment of any rent and
                       additional rent or any other sum as to which Tenant is in
                       default or for any sum which Landlord may expend or may
                       be required to expend by reason of Tenant's default in
                       respect of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of
                       this lease, including but not limited to, any damages or
                       deficiency in the re-letting of the premises, whether
                       such damage or deficiency accrued before or after summary
                       proceedings or other re-entry by Landlord. Tenant shall,
                       upon demand, deposit with Landlord the full amount so
                       used, in order that Landlord shall have the full security
                       deposit on hand at all times. In the event that Tenant
                       shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms,
                       provisions, covenants and conditions of this lease, the
                       security shall be returned to Tenant after the date fixed
                       as the end of the lease and after delivery of entire
                       possession of the demised premises to Landlord. In the
                       event of any transfer or conveyance by Landlord of its
                       lease to the building of which the demised premises form
                       a pan. hereinafter referred to. Landlord shall have the
                       right to transfer the security to the transferee or
                       grantee, and Landlord shall thereupon be released by
                       Tenant from all liability for the return of such
                       security, and Tenant agrees to look to the new Landlord
                       solely for the return of said security; and it is agreed
                       that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer
                       or assignment made of the security to a new Landlord.
                       Tenant further covenants that it will not assign or
                       encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the monies
                       deposited herein as security and that neither Landlord
                       nor its successors or assigns shall be bound by any such
                       assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or
                       attempted encumbrance.

                       any of the covenants of this lease other than the
                       covenants for the payment of rent or additional rent, or
                       of any ancillary agreement, or if the demised premises
                       become vacant or deserted, then, in any one or more of
                       such events, upon Landlord serving a written five (5)

                       default and upon the expiration of said five (5) days, if
                       Tenant shall have failed to comply with or remedy such
                       default, or if the said default or omission complained of
                       shall be of such a nature that the same cannot be
                       completely cured or remedied within said five (5) day
                       period, and if Tenant shall not have diligently commenced

                       term thereunder shall end and expire as fully and
                       completely as if the date of expiration of such three (3)
                       day period were the day herein definitely fixed for the
                       end and expiration of this lease and the term thereof,
                       and Tenant shall then quit and surrender the demised
                       premises to Landlord, but Tenant shall remain liable as
                       hereinafter provided.

                       have been given, and the term shall expire as aforesaid;
                       or (1) if Tenant shall make default in the payment of the
                       rent reserved herein or any item of additional rent

                       or attempted to be taken or occupied by someone other
                       than Tenant: or (3) if Tenant shall make default with
                       respect to any other lease between Landlord and Tenant:

                       the commencement of any renewal or extension of this
                       lease. Landlord may cancel and terminate such renewal or
                       extension agreement by written notice.

                            (c) If Tenant is presently in possession of the
                       demised premises pursuant to a lease in writing
                       heretofore made and if, before the commencement of the
                       term herein provided the aforesaid lease shall be
                       terminated or Tenant shall be dispossessed or shall
                       voluntarily or involuntarily vacate, surrender or remove
                       from the

                                       14

demised premises, then this lease shall, at the option of
Landlord, be terminated, but Tenant shall nevertheless
remain liable as hereinbefore provided.

     FORTIETH:--In case of any such default, re-entry,      REMEDIES OF LANDLORD
expiration and/or dispossess by summary proceedings or
otherwise, (a) the rent and additional rent shall become
due thereupon and be paid up to the time of such
re-entry, dispossess and/or expiration, together with
such expenses as Landlord may incur for legal expenses,
attorneys' fees, brokerage, and/or putting the demised
premises in good order, or for preparing the same for
re-rental; (b) Landlord may re-let the premises or any
pan or pans thereof, either in the name of Landlord or
otherwise, for a term or terms, which may at Landlord's
option be less than or exceed the period which would
otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of
this lease and may grant concessions or free rent; and/or
(c) Tenant or the legal representatives of Tenant shall
also pay Landlord as liquidated damages for the failure
of Tenant to observe and perform said Tenant's covenants
herein contained, any deficiency between the rent hereby
reserved and/or covenanted to be paid and the net amount,
if any, of the rents collected on account of the lease or
leases of the demised premises for each month of the
period which would otherwise have constituted the balance
of the term of this lease. The rent received from any
re-letting or re-lettings, but only for the unexpired
portion of this lease, shall be applied first to the
payment of Landlord's expenses in resuming, possession
and re-letting the premises, which expenses shall include
but not be limited to attorneys' fees, brokerage
commissions, cleaning, repairs, painting and decoration.
The balance, if any, shall be applied in payment of all
unpaid rent, additional rent and other charges due from
Tenant hereunder, irrespective of whether the liability
therefor arose prior or subsequent to the date of the
expiration of the term hereof. Tenant hereby covenants
and agrees to pay to Landlord, within a reasonable time
after demand therefor shall be made, the balance, if any,
remaining unpaid. In the event that any re-letting
hereunder results in Landlord's receiving from Tenant in
any month an amount in excess of the amount due for such
month, then and in that event Tenant shall not be
obligated to make any payment to Landlord for rent due in
such month, nor shall Landlord at any time be obligated
to make any refund or apply any credit to Tenant with
respect to such rent, and Tenant shall have no claim by
way of defense to a suit or otherwise that Landlord has
received for any prior month or that any new tenant has
agreed to pay for any subsequent month a greater amount
than that hereinabove reserved to be paid as rent for
that month. The failure or refusal of Landlord to re-let
the premises or any pan or pans thereof shall not release
or affect Tenant's liability for damages. Any security in
Landlord's possession not retained by it as liquidated
damages may be applied by it for any or all of the
aforesaid purposes. Any such liquidated damages shall be
paid as additional rent hereunder in monthly installments
by Tenant on the rent day specified in this lease and any
suit brought to collect the amount of the deficiency for
any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of
Landlord to collect the deficiency for any subsequent
month by a similar proceeding. Landlord, at Landlord's
option, may make such alterations, repairs, replacements
and/or decorations in the demised premises as Landlord in
Landlord's sole judgment considers advisable and
necessary for the purpose of re-letting the demised
premises; and the making of such alterations and/or
decorations shall not operate or be construed to release
Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Landlord
shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for
failure to re-let the demised premises, or in the event
that the demised premises are re-let, for failure to
collect the rent thereof under such re-letting. In the
event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any
of the covenants or provisions hereof. Landlord shall
have the right of injunction and the right to invoke any
remedy allowed at law or inequity as if re-entry, summary
proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided
for. Mention in this lease of any particular remedy,
shall not preclude Landlord from any other remedy, in law
or in equity.

future cause or thing whatsoever (including, without
limitation, by reason of any statute, ordinance,

rent reserved hereunder, then Landlord, at its
unrestricted option, may give Tenant not less than five
(5) days' notice of intention to end this lease and the
term hereof, and thereupon, on the date specified in said
notice, this lease and the term hereof shall expire as
fully and completely as if that date were the date,
herein originally fixed for the expiration of this lease
and the term hereof.

     FORTY-SECOND:--It is mutually agreed by and            WAIVER OF TRIAL BY

personal injury or property damage, or involving the
right to any statutory relief or remedy. Tenant will not

                       proceeding. The provisions of this paragraph shall be
                       binding upon the respective heirs, distributees,
                       executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the
                       parties hereto and all subtenants hereunder.

WAIVER OF                   FORTY-THIRD:--Tenant hereby expressly waives any and
REDEMPTION             all rights of redemption granted by or under any present
                       or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or
                       dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Landlord
                       obtaining possession of demised premises, by reason of
                       the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and
                       conditions of this lease, or otherwise.

NO WAIVER                   FORTY-FOURTH:--(a) If there be any agreement between
                       Landlord and Tenant providing for the cancellation of
                       this lease upon certain provisions or contingencies,
                       and/or an agreement for the renewal hereof at the
                       expiration of the term first above mentioned, the right
                       to such renewal or the execution of a renewal agreement
                       between Landlord and Tenant prior to the expiration of
                       such first mentioned term shall not be considered an
                       extension thereof or a vested right in Tenant to such
                       further term, so as to prevent Landlord from cancelling
                       this lease and any such extension thereof during the
                       remainder of the original term hereby granted; such
                       privilege, if and when so exercised by Landlord, shall
                       cancel and terminate this lease and any such renewal or
                       extension previously entered into between said Landlord
                       and Tenant or the right of Tenant to any such renewal or
                       extension; any right herein contained on the part of
                       Landlord to cancel this lease shall continue during any
                       extension or renewal hereof; any option on the part of
                       Tenant herein contained for an extension or renewal
                       hereof shall not be deemed to give Tenant any option for
                       a further extension beyond the first renewal or extended
                       term.

                            (b) No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord's
                       agents during the term hereby demised shall constitute an
                       actual or constructive eviction by Landlord, nor shall be
                       deemed an acceptance of a surrender of said demised
                       premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall
                       be valid unless in writing signed by Landlord. In the
                       event that any payment herein provided for by Tenant to
                       Landlord shall become overdue for a period in excess of
                       ten (10) days, then at Landlord's option a "late charge"
                       for such period and for each additional period of twenty
                       (20) days or any part thereof shall become immediately
                       due and owing to Landlord, as additional rent by reason
                       of the failure of Tenant to make prompt payment, at the
                       following rates: for individual and partnership tenants,
                       said late charge shall be computed at the maximum legal
                       rate of interest; for corporate or governmental entity
                       tenants the late charge shall be computed at two percent
                       per month unless there is an applicable maximum legal
                       rate of interest which then shall be used. No employee of
                       Landlord or of Landlord's agents shall have any power to
                       accept the keys of said premises prior to the termination
                       of the lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of
                       Landlord or of Landlord's agents shall not operate as a
                       termination of the lease or a surrender of the premises.
                       In the event of Tenant at any time desiring to have
                       Landlord sublet the premises for Tenant's account.
                       Landlord or Landlord's agents are authorized to receive
                       said keys for such purposes without releasing Tenant from
                       any of the obligations under this lease, and Tenant
                       hereby relieves Landlord of any liability for loss of or
                       damage to any of Tenant's effects in connection with such
                       subletting.

                            (c) The failure of Landlord to seek redress for
                       violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance
                       of, any covenant or condition of this lease, or any of
                       the Rules and Regulations set forth or hereafter adopted
                       by Landlord, shall not prevent a subsequent act, which
                       would have originally constituted a violation, from
                       having all the force and effect of an original violation.
                       The receipt by Landlord of rent with knowledge of the
                       breach of any covenant of this lease shall not be deemed
                       a waiver of such breach.

                            (d) The failure of Landlord to enforce any of the
                       Rules and Regulations set forth, or hereafter adopted,
                       against Tenant and/or any other tenant in the building
                       shall not be deemed a waiver of any such Rules and
                       Regulations. No provision of this lease shall be deemed
                       to have been waived by Landlord, unless such waiver be in
                       writing signed by Landlord.

                            (e) No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a
                       lesser amount than the monthly rent herein stipulated
                       shall be deemed to be other than on account of the
                       earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or
                       statement on any check or any letter accompanying any
                       check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and
                       satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or
                       payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover
                       the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy in
                       this lease provided.

harmless against costs, claims, loss or liability
resulting from delay by Lessee in so surrendering the

claims made by any succeeding tenant, founded on such
delay. The parties recognize and agree that the damage to

                       expressly set forth. The taking possession of the demised

                       land and entire building) of which the demised premises
                       form a part so that in the event of any sale or sales of
                       said land and entire building or of any transfer or
                       conveyance of said lease or in the event of a lease of

     FIFTY-SEVENTH:-- The fixed annual rent reserved in     COST OF LIVING
this lease and payable hereunder shall be adjusted, as of   ADJUSTMENTS
the times and in the manner set forth in this Article:

     (a) Definitions: For the purposes of this Article,
the following definitions shall apply:

     (i) The term "Base Year" shall mean the full           1994 (see Ric 4% Cap
calendar year during which the term of this lease
commences.

     (ii) The term "Price Index" shall mean the 'Consumer
Price Index' published by the Bureau of Labor -
Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor, All Items,
New York, N.Y.--Northeastern, N.J., all urban consumers
(presently denominated "CPI-U"), or a successor or
substitute index appropriately adjusted.

     (iii) The term "Price Index for the Base Year" shall
mean the average of the monthly All Items Price Indexes
for each of the 12 months of the Base Year.

     (b) Effective as of each January and July subsequent
to the Base Year, there shall be made a cost of living
adjustment of the fixed annual rental rate payable
hereunder. The July adjustment shall be based on the
percentage difference between the Price Index for the
preceding month of June and the Price Index for the Base
Year. The January adjustment shall be based on such
percentage difference between the Price Index for the
preceding month of December and the Price Index for the
Base Year.

     (i) In the event the Price Index for June in any
calendar year during the term of this lease reflects an
increase over the Price Index for the Base Year, then the
fixed annual rent herein provided to be paid as of the
July 1st following such month of June (unchanged by any
adjustments under this Article) shall be multiplied by
the percentage difference between the Price Index for
June and the Price Index for the Base Year, and the
resulting sum shall be added to such fixed annual rent,
effective as of such July 1st. Said adjusted fixed annual
rent shall thereafter be payable hereunder, in equal
monthly installments, until it is readjusted pursuant to
the terms of this lease.

     (ii) In the event the Price Index for December in
any calendar year during the term of this lease reflects
an increase over the Price Index for the Base Year, then
the fixed annual rent herein provided to be paid as of
the January 1st following such month of December
(unchanged by any adjustments under this Article) shall
be multiplied by the percentage difference between the
Price Index for December and the Price Index for the Base
Year, and the resulting sum shall be added to such fixed
annual rent effective as of such January 1st. Said
adjusted fixed annual rent shall thereafter be payable
hereunder, in equal monthly installments, until it is
readjusted pursuant to the terms of this lease.

     The following illustrates the intentions of the
parties hereto as to the computation of the
aforementioned cost of living adjustment in the annual
rent payable hereunder.

     Assuming that said fixed annual rent is $10,000,
that the Price Index for the Base Year was 102.0 and that
the Price Index for the month of June in a calendar year
following the Base Year was 105.0, then the percentage
increase thus reflected, i.e. 2.941% (3.0/102.0) would be
multiplied by 510,000, and said fixed annual rent would
be increased by $294.10 effective as of July 1st of said
calendar year.

     In the event that the Price Index ceases to use
82-84=100 as the basis of calculation or if a substantial
change is made in the terms or number of items contained
in the Price Index, then the Price Index shall be
adjusted to the figure that would have been arrived at
had the manner of computing the Price Index in effect at
the date of this lease not been altered. In the event
such Price Index (or a successor or substitute index) is
not available, a reliable governmental or other
non-partisan publication evaluating the information
theretofore used in determining the Price Index shall be
used.

     No adjustments or recomputations, retroactive or
otherwise, shall be made due to any revision which may
later be made in the first published figure of the Price
Index for any month.

                                       19

                            (c) Landlord will cause statements of the cost of
                       living adjustments provided for in subdivision (b) to be
                       prepared in reasonable detail and delivered to Tenant.

                            (d) In no event shall the fixed annual rent
                       originally provided to be paid under this lease
                       (exclusive of the adjustments under this Article) be
                       reduced by virtue of this Article.

                            (e) Any delay or failure of Landlord, beyond July or
                       January of any year, in computing or billing for the rent
                       adjustments hereinabove provided, shall not constitute a
                       waiver of or in any way impair the continuing obligation
                       of Tenant to pay such rent adjustments hereunder.

                            (f) Notwithstanding any expiration or termination of
                       this lease prior to the lease expiration date (except in
                       the case of a cancellation by mutual agreement) Tenant's
                       obligation to pay rent as adjusted under this Article
                       shall continue and shall cover all periods up to the
                       lease expiration date, and shall survive any expiration
                       or termination of this lease.

                                 (ii) The term "The Percentage", for purposes of
                            computing tax escalation, shall mean Two & ten
                            hundreths of one percent (2.10%). The Percentage has
                            been computed on the basis of a fraction, the
                            numerator of which is the rentable square foot area
                            of the presently demised premises and the

                            that the rentable square foot area of the presently
                            demised premises shall be deemed to be 10,624 sq.ft.

                            shall be deemed to be 505,591 sq.ft.

                                 (iii) The term "the building project" shall
                            mean the aggregate combined parcel of land on a
                            portion of which are the improvements of which the
                            demised premises form a part, with all the
                            improvements thereon, said improvements being a part

                            twelve (12) months following the base tax year, and
                            each subsequent period of twelve (12) months (or

                            during the term of this lease as hereafter may be
                            duly adopted as the fiscal year for real estate tax
                            purposes by the City of New York).

                            method of taxation or in the taxing authority, or
                            for any other reason, a franchise, income, transit,

                            rata portion thereof, covering the portion of the
                            term of this lease unexpired at the time of the
                            imposition of such assessment, shall be included in

                            be paid in installments, then, for the purposes
                            hereof (a) such assessment shall be deemed to have
                            been payable, in the maximum number of installments
                            permitted by law and (b) there shall be included in
                            real estate taxes, for each comparative year in
                            which such installments may be paid, the
                            installments of such assessment so becoming payable

                            payable during such comparative year.

                                       20

                                 (vi) Where a "transition assessment" is imposed
                            by the City of New York for any tax (fiscal) year,
                            then the phrases "assessed value" and "assessments"
                            shall mean the transition assessment for that tax
                            (fiscal) year.

                            during the base tax year" shall mean that amount
                            obtained by multiplying the assessed value of the
                            land and buildings of the building project for the
                            base tax year by the tax rate for the base tax year
                            for each $100 of such assessed value.

                            (b) 1. In the event that the real estate taxes
                       payable for any comparative year shall exceed the amount
                       of the real estate taxes payable during the base tax
                       year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent
                       for such comparative year, an amount equal to The
                       Percentage of the excess. Before or after the start of
                       each comparative year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a
                       statement of the real estate taxes payable for such
                       comparative year, and a statement of the real estate
                       taxes payable during the base tax year. If the real
                       estate taxes payable for such comparative year exceed the
                       real estate taxes payable during the base tax year,
                       additional rent for such comparative year, in an amount
                       equal to The Percentage of the excess, shall be due from
                       Tenant to Landlord, and such additional rent shall be
                       payable by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days after
                       receipt of the aforesaid statement The benefit of any
                       discount for any earlier payment or prepayment of real
                       estate taxes shall accrue solely to the benefit of
                       Landlord, and such discount shall not be subtracted from
                       the real estate taxes payable for any comparative year.

                            2. Should the real estate taxes payable during the
                       base tax year be reduced by final determination of legal
                       proceedings, settlement or otherwise, then, the real
                       estate taxes payable during the base tax year shall be
                       correspondingly revised, the additional rent theretofore
                       paid or payable hereunder for all comparative years shall
                       be recomputed on the basis of such reduction, and Tenant
                       shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, within ten (10)
                       days after being billed therefor, any deficiency between
                       the amount of such additional rent as theretofore
                       computed and the amount thereof due as the result of such
                       recomputations. Should the real estate taxes payable
                       during the base tax year be increased by such final
                       determination of legal proceedings, settlement or
                       otherwise, then appropriate recomputation and adjustment
                       also shall be made.

                            3. If, after Tenant shall have made a payment of
                       additional rent under this subdivision (c), Landlord
                       shall receive a refund of any portion of the real estate
                       taxes payable for any comparative year after the base tax
                       year on which such payment of additional rent shall have
                       been based, as a result of a reduction of such real
                       estate taxes by final determination of legal proceedings,
                       settlement or otherwise, Landlord shall within ten (10)
                       days after receiving the refund pay to Tenant The
                       Percentage of the refund less The Percentage of expenses
                       (including attorneys' and appraisers' fees) incurred by
                       Landlord in connection with any such application or
                       proceeding. If, prior to the payment of taxes for any
                       comparative year, Landlord shall have obtained a
                       reduction of that comparative year's assessed valuation
                       of the building project, and therefore of said taxes,
                       then the term "real estate taxes" for that comparative
                       year shall be deemed to include the amount of Landlord's
                       expenses in obtaining such reduction in assessed
                       valuation, inducting attorneys' and appraisers' fees.

                            4. The statements of the real estate taxes to be
                       furnished by Landlord as provided above shall be
                       certified by Landlord and shall constitute a final
                       determination as between Landlord and Tenant of the real
                       estate taxes for the periods represented thereby, unless
                       Tenant within thirty (30) days after they are furnished
                       shall give a written notice to Landlord that it disputes
                       their accuracy or their appropriateness, which notice
                       shall specify the particular respects in which the
                       statement is inaccurate or inappropriate. If Tenant shall
                       so dispute said statement then, pending the resolution of
                       such dispute, Tenant shall pay the additional rent to
                       Landlord in accordance with the statement furnished by
                       Landlord.

                            5. In no event shall the fixed annual rent under
                       this' lease (exclusive of the additional rents under this
                       Article) be reduced by virtue of this Article.

                            6. If the commencement date of the term of this
                       lease is not the first day of the first comparative year,
                       then the additional rent due hereunder for such first
                       comparative year shall be a proportionate share of said
                       additional rent for the entire comparative year, said
                       proportionate share to be based upon the length of time
                       that the lease term will be in existence during such
                       first comparative year. Upon the date of any expiration
                       or termination of this lease (except termination because
                       of Tenant's default) whether the same be the date
                       hereinabove set forth for the expiration of the term or
                       any prior or subsequent date, a proportionate share of
                       said additional rent for the comparative year during
                       which such expiration or termination occurs shall
                       immediately become due and payable by Tenant to Landlord,
                       if it was not theretofore already billed and paid. The
                       said proportionate share shall be based upon the length
                       of time that this lease shall have been in existence

                                       21

                       during such comparative year. Landlord shall promptly
                       cause statements of said additional rent for that
                       comparative year to be prepared and furnished to Tenant.
                       Landlord and Tenant Shall thereupon make appropriate
                       adjustments of amounts then owing.

                            7. Landlord's and Tenant's obligations to make the
                       adjustments referred to in Subdivision (6) above shall
                       survive any expiration or termination of this lease.

                            8. Any delay or failure of Landlord in billing any
                       tax escalation hereinabove provided shall not constitute
                       a waiver of or in any way impair the continuing
                       obligation of Tenant to pay such tax escalation
                       hereunder.

OCCUPANCY AND USE           FIFTY-NINTH:--(A). Tenant acknowledges that its
BY TENANT              continued occupancy of the demised premises, and the
                       regular conduct of its business therein, are of utmost
                       importance to the Landlord in the renewal of other leases
                       in the building, in the renting of vacant space in the
                       building, in the providing of electricity, air
                       conditioning, steam and other services to the tenants in
                       the building, and in the maintenance of the character and
                       quality of the tenants in the building. Tenant therefore
                       covenants and agrees that it win occupy the entire
                       demised premises and will conduct its business therein
                       in the regular and usual manner, throughout the term of
                       this lease. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is
                       executing this lease in reliance upon these covenants and
                       that these covenants are a material element of
                       consideration inducing the Landlord to execute this
                       lease. Tenant further agrees that if it vacates the
                       demised premises or fails to so conduct its business
                       therein, at any time during the term of this lease,
                       without the prior written consent of the Landlord, then
                       all rent and additional rent reserved in this lease from
                       the date of such breach to the expiration date of this
                       lease shall become immediately due and payable to
                       Landlord.

                            (B). The parties recognize and agree that the damage
                       to Landlord resulting from any breach of the covenants in
                       subdivision (A) hereof will be extremely substantial will
                       be far greater than the rent payable, for the balance of
                       the term of this lease, and will be impossible of
                       accurate measurement. The parties therefore agree that in
                       the event of a breach or threatened breach of the said
                       covenants, in addition to all of Landlord's other rights
                       and remedies, at law or in equity or otherwise, Landlord
                       shall have the right of injunction to preserve Tenant's
                       occupancy and use. The words "become vacant or deserted"
                       as used elsewhere in this lease shall include Tenant's
                       failure to occupy or use as by this Article required.

                            (C). If Tenant breaches either of the covenants in
                       subdivision (A) above, and this lease be terminated
                       because of such default, then, in addition to Landlord's
                       rights of re-entry, restoration, preparation for and
                       rerental, and anything elsewhere in this lease to the
                       contrary notwithstanding, Landlord shall retain its right
                       to judgment on and collection of Tenant's aforesaid
                       obligation to make a single payment to Landlord of a sum
                       equal to the total of all rent and additional rent
                       reserved for the remainder of the original term of this
                       lease, subject to future credit or repayment to Tenant in
                       the event of any rerenting of the premises by Landlord,
                       after first deducting from rerental income all expenses
                       incurred by Landlord in reducing to judgment or otherwise
                       collecting Tenant's aforesaid obligation, and in
                       obtaining possession of, restoring, preparing for and
                       re-letting the premises. In no event shall Tenant be
                       entitled to a credit or repayment for rerental income
                       which exceeds the sums payable by Tenant hereunder or
                       which covers a period after the original term of this
                       lease.

                            (D). If any provision of this Article of this lease
                       or the application thereof to any person or circumstance
                       shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the
                       remainder of this Article, or the application of such
                       provision to persons or circumstances other than those as
                       to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not
                       be affected thereby, and each provision of this Article
                       and of this lease shall be valid and be enforced to the
                       fullest extent permitted by law.

                            SIXTIETH:--The Landlord shall be under no obligation
                       to provide access between the "A" Wing and the "B" Wing
                       on the floor of the premises demised herein, and any
                       passageways which may now or hereafter exist between said
                       wings may be discontinued at any time at the discretion
                       of the Landlord.

CAPTIONS                    SIXTY-FIRST:--The captions are inserted only as a
                       matter of convenience and for reference and in no way

                       intent of any provision thereof.

RULES AND                   SIXTY-SECOND:--Tenant and Tenant's servants,
REGULATIONS            employees, agents, visitors, and licensees shall observe
                       and non-discriminate faithfully, and comply strictly
                       with, the Rules and Regulations and such other and

                       Regulations as Landlord or Landlord's agents may from
                       time to time adopt. Notice of any additional rules or
                       regulations shall be given in such manner as Landlord may
                       elect. In case Tenant disputes the reasonableness of any
                       additional Rule or Regulation hereafter made or adopted
                       by Landlord or Landlord's agents, the parties hereto
                       agree to submit the question of the reasonableness of
                       such Rule or Regulation for decision to the

                                       22

                       Division of The Real Estate Board of New York, Inc., or
                       to such impartial person or persons as he may designate,

                       the parties hereto. The right to dispute the
                       reasonableness of any additional Rule or Regulation upon
                       Tenant's part shall be deemed waived unless the same
                       shall be asserted by service of a notice in writing
                       upon Landlord within ten (10) days after the adoption of

                       lease is submitted to Tenant on the understanding that it
                       shall not be considered an offer and shall not bind
                       Landlord in any way until (i) Tenant has duly executed
                       and delivered duplicate originals to Landlord and (ii)

of this lease including the payment of electricity.

SIXTY SIXTH: Tenant shall perform all initial alteration work to make the
demised premises suitable and ready for Tenant's occupancy and use (the "Initial
Alteration Work"). Tenant shall, within sixty (60) days after the execution of
this Lease by Tenant, furnish Landlord for its approval a complete set of
architectural and engineering plans and specifications for such work including

required for its approval to be forthcoming.

               Tenant, at its own cost and expense (except as herein provided),
will cause the initial Alteration Work to be effected in accordance with
Tenant's approved plans and specifications, pursuant to the provisions of
Article TWELFTH and FIFTEENTH, as supplemented by Article SIXTEENTH, hereof, and

Rent an Electric Riser Charge of $5.00 per ton, per month for each unit.

beyond any grace period, Landlord will pay up to the first $265,600 ("Landlord's
Work Contribution") of the costs of labor and materials, excluding the costs of
Tenant's personal property, in effecting the Initial Alteration Work. If such
costs are lower than $265,600, the Landlord's aforedescribed contribution
obligation shall be satisfied by its paying such amount lower than $265,600. Any
such costs in excess of $265,600 shall be paid promptly by Tenant.

               In connection with the Initial Alteration Work, Tenant shall
provide Landlord with true copies of paid bills, showing the cost of the items
of the Initial Alteration Work to be included in the aforesaid total up to

          1.   Install bathrooms as required pursuant to the Americans With
               Disabilities Act. Landlord will use best efforts to coordinate
               its construction with that of Tenant.

          2.   Remove existing installations from the demised premises so that
               same shall be delivered vacant and free of same in "shell"
               condition.

               Landlord shall substantially complete the portion of Landlord's
Work described in clause 1 above within 60 working days of the date hereof.
Landlord shall substantially complete the portion of Landlord's Work described
in clause 2 above within 30 working days of the date hereof. If Landlord fails

specified above, Tenant shall have the right to have such work done by Tenant's
contractors and materialmen at Landlord's cost and expense. Landlord shall
reimburse Tenant promptly for such costs and expenses upon presentation by
Tenant of paid invoices therefor.

               Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the
time by which Landlord shall substantially complete the work required to be
performed by it in the demised premises shall be extended for such period as
Landlord is prevented from substantially completing such work due to strikes,
lockouts, labor disputes, Acts of God, governmental restrictions, enemy or
hostile governmental action, fire or other casualty, or any other reason beyond
Landlord's reasonable control. Further, if Landlord's work is not substantially
completed and is delayed by acts, omissions or changes made or requested by
Tenant, its agents, designers, architects or any other party acting or
apparently acting on Tenant's behalf, then the time by which Landlord shall
substantially complete the work required to be performed by it in the demised
premises shall be extended by the period or such delay.

calendar year, or for any portion thereof, shall not exceed an amount equal to
four percent (4%) of the fixed annual rental rate payable under this lease as
of December 1st or of the immediately preceding calendar year (including any
adjustments under Article FIFTY SEVENTH).

SEVENTIETH: Anything to the contrary contained in Article THIRTY FIFTH
notwithstanding, should Landlord elect not to give such notice of termination
and the demised premises are not restored so that Tenant may resume its regular
course of business operations within 180 days after such fire or other cause,
Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord a notice in writing of termination,
which notice shall be given as provided in this Lease and thereupon the term of
this Lease shall expire by lapse of time on the third day after such notice is
given, and Tenant shall vacate the demised premises and surrender same to

     be, except that the transfer of the outstanding capital stock of any
     corporate tenant, or subtenant, shall be deemed not to include the sale of

     under this Lease passes by operation of law, or otherwise, shall be bound
     by the provisions of this

                                       -4-

     Article 10, and (z) a modification, amendment or extension of a sublease
     shall be deemed a sublease.

     transactions with a corporation into or with which Tenant is merged or
     consolidated or with an entity to which substantially all of Tenant's
     assets are transferred or, if Tenant is a partnership, with a successor
     partnership (provided such merger or transfer of assets is for a good
     business purpose and not principally for the purpose of transferring the
     leasehold estate created hereby, and provided further, that either the (x)

     worth of Tenant immediately prior to such merger or transfer, or (y) such
     assignee delivers a letter of credit, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit
     A, in the amount equal to the product of (A) twelve (12) and (B) the then
     prevailing monthly fixed rent).

     (iii) Any assignment or transfer, whether made with Landlord's consent as
     required by subparagraph (i) or without Landlord's consent pursuant to
     subparagraph (ii) hereof, shall be made only if, and shall not be effective
     until, the assignee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a
     recordable agreement (unless the assignment shall be a "deemed" assignment
     by reason of a transfer of a majority interest in Tenant), in form and
     substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, whereby the assignee shall
     assume the obligations and performance of this Lease and agree to be
     personally bound by and upon all of the covenants, agreements, terms,
     provisions and conditions hereof on the part of Tenant to be performed or
     observed and whereby the assignee shall agree that the provisions of
     subparagraph (i) hereof shall, notwithstanding such an assignment or
     transfer, continue to be binding upon it in the future. Tenant covenants
     that, notwithstanding any assignment or transfer, whether or not in
     violation of the provisions of this Lease, and notwithstanding the
     acceptance of fixed annual rent by Landlord from an assignee or transferee
     or any other party, Tenant shall remain fully and primarily liable for the
     payment of the fixed annual rent and additional rent due and to become due
     under this Lease and for the performance of all of the covenants,
     agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease on the part of
     Tenant to be performed or observed.

     (iv) The liability of Tenant, and the due performance by Tenant of the
     obligations on its part to be performed under this Lease, shall not be
     discharged, released or impaired in any respect by an agreement or

                                       -5-

stipulation made by Landlord or any grantee or assignee of Landlord, by way of
mortgage, or otherwise, extending the time of, or modifying any of the
obligations contained in this Lease, or by any waiver or failure of Landlord to
enforce any of the obligations on Tenant's part to be performed under this
Lease, and Tenant shall continue to be liable hereunder. If any such agreement
or modification operates to increase the obligations of a tenant under this
Lease, the liability under this subparagraph (iv) of the tenant named in the
Lease or any of its successors in interest, (unless such party shall have
expressly consented in writing to such agreement or modification) shall continue
to be no greater than if such agreement or modification had not been made. To
charge Tenant named in this Lease and its successors in interest after this
Lease shall be assigned, no demand or notice of any default to the named Tenant
shall be required. Tenant and each of its successors in interest hereby
expressly waive any such demand or notice.

(v)  (A) Should Tenant determine, subject to the provisions of this Lease, to
assign this Lease, other than by an assignment contemplated by subparagraph (ii)
hereof, Tenant shall not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the effective
date of the contemplated assignment, deliver to Landlord a term sheet setting
forth the terms and the effective date of the contemplated assignment
transaction, the identity of the proposed assignee and information (including,
without limitation, current financial information regarding net worth, credit
and financial responsibility) with respect to the nature and character of the
proposed assignee's business, and Landlord shall then have the right to elect,
by notifying Tenant within thirty (30) days of such delivery, to (x) terminate
this Lease, as of such effective date as if it were the Expiration Date set
forth in this Lease or (y) accept an assignment of this Lease from Tenant, and
Tenant shall then promptly execute and deliver to Landlord, or Landlord's
designee if so elected by Landlord, in form reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord's counsel, an assignment which shall be effective as of such effective
date.

     (B) In the event that this Lease shall be assigned to Landlord or
Landlord's designee or if the demised premises shall be sublet to Landlord or
Landlord's designee pursuant to this subparagraph (v), the provisions of any
such sublease or assignment and the obligations of Landlord and the rights of
Tenant with respect thereto shall not be binding upon or otherwise affect the
rights of any holder of a superior mortgage or of a lessor under a superior
lease unless such holder or

                                       -6-

lessor shall elect by written notice to Tenant to succeed to the position of
Landlord or its designee, as the case may be, thereunder.

     (C) Should Tenant determine subject to the provisions of this Lease, to
sublet the demised premises or any portion thereof, other than by a sublease
contemplated by subparagraph (ii) hereof, Tenant shall, not less than forty-five
(45) days prior to the effective date of the contemplated sublease, deliver to
Landlord, a term sheet setting forth the terms of the contemplated sublease
transaction, the effective date therefor, the identity of the proposed
subtenant, and information with respect to the nature and character of the
proposed subtenant's business, and Landlord shall then have the right to elect,
by notifying Tenant within thirty (30) days of such delivery, to (x) terminate
this Lease as to the portion of the demised premises affected by such subletting
or as to the entire demised premises, in the case of a subletting thereof, as of
such effective date, (y) in the case of a proposed subletting of the entire
demised premises, accept an assignment of this Lease to Landlord from Tenant,
and Tenant shall then promptly execute and deliver to Landlord, or Landlord's
designee if so elected by Landlord, in form reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord's and Tenant's counsel, an assignment which shall be effective as of
such effective date, (z) accept a sublease from Tenant of the portion of the
demised premises affected by such proposed subletting or the entire demised
premises in the case of a proposed subletting thereof, and Tenant shall then
promptly execute and deliver a sublease to Landlord, or Landlord's designee if
so elected by Landlord, for the term provided in the aforementioned term sheet,
commencing with such effective date, at (1) the rental terms reflected in such
term sheet or (2) the rental terms contained in this Lease on a per rentable
square foot basis, as elected by Landlord in such notice.

     (D) If Landlord should elect to have Tenant execute and deliver a sublease
to Landlord or its designee pursuant to any of the provisions of this
subparagraph (v), said sublease shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord's counsel and on all the terms contained in this Lease, except that:

          (1) The rental terms, if elected by Landlord, may be either as
     provided in item (1) or item (2) of subparagraph (v)(C) hereof,

                                       -7-

          (2) Except as provided in this subparagraph (v)(D), the terms of the
     sublease shall be on the same terms set forth in the term sheet delivered
     to Landlord (as described in subparagraph (v)(C) hereof),

          (3) The subtenant thereunder shall have the right to underlet the
     subleased premises, in whole or in part, without Tenant's consent,

          (4) The subtenant thereunder shall have the right to make, or cause to
     be made, any changes, alterations, decorations, additions and improvements
     that such subtenant may desire or authorize,

          (5) Such sublease shall expressly negate any intention that any estate
     created by or under such sublease be merged with any other estate held by
     either of the parties thereto,

          (6) Any consent required of Tenant, as lessor under that sublease,
     shall be deemed granted if consent with respect thereto is granted by
     Landlord,

          (7) There shall be no limitation as to the use of the sublet premises
     by the subtenant thereunder,

          (8) Any failure of the subtenant thereunder to comply with the
     provisions of said sublease, other than with respect to the payment of rent
     to Tenant, shall not constitute a default thereunder or hereunder if
     Landlord has consented to such non-compliance,

          (9) Such sublease shall provide that Tenant's obligations with respect
     to vacating the demised premises and removing any changes, alterations,
     decorations, additions or improvements made in the subleased premises shall
     be limited to those which accrued and related to such as were made prior to
     the effective date of the sublease, and

          (10) If subtenant shall fail to pay the rent under the sublease to
     Tenant within ten (10) days after such installment of rent shall have
     become due, then Tenant may give subtenant notice thereof and if subtenant
     shall continue to fail to make any

                                       -8-

          such payment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice,
          then Tenant shall be entitled to offset the amount not paid against
          the next rent coming due under the Lease. Notwithstanding anything
          herein to the contrary, such offset right shall not be binding upon
          nor inure to any mortgagee or superior lessor.

          (E) If pursuant to the exercise of any of Landlord's options pursuant
     to this subparagraph (v) this Lease is terminated as to only a portion of
     the demised premises, then the fixed annual rent payable hereunder and the
     additional rent payable pursuant to the terms of this Lease shall be
     adjusted in proportion to the portion of the demised premises affected by
     such termination.

     (vi) In the event that Landlord does not exercise any of the options
     available to it pursuant to subparagraph (v) hereof, Landlord shall not
     unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to an assignment of this Lease
     or a subletting of the whole or any part of the demised premises for
     substantially the remainder of the term of this Lease, provided:

          (A) Tenant shall furnish Landlord with the name and business address
     of the proposed subtenant or assignee and information with respect to the
     nature and character of the proposed subtenant's or assignee's business, or
     activities, such references and current financial information with respect
     to net worth, credit and financial responsibility as are reasonably
     satisfactory to Landlord, and an executed counterpart of the sublease or
     assignment agreement;

          (B) The proposed subtenant or assignee is a party whose financial net
     worth, credit and financial responsibility is, considering the
     responsibilities involved, reasonably satisfactory to Landlord;

          (C) The nature and character of the proposed subtenant or assignee,
     its business or activities and intended use of the demised premises is, in
     Landlord's reasonable judgment, in keeping with the standards of the
     Building and the floor or floors on which the demised premises are located;

          (D) The proposed subtenant or assignee is not then an occupant of any
     part of the Building or a party who dealt with Landlord or Landlord's agent
     (directly or through a broker) with respect

                                       -9-

     to space in the Building during the six (6) months immediately preceding
     Tenant's request for Landlord's consent;

          (E) All costs incurred with respect to providing reasonably
     appropriate means of ingress and egress from the sublet space or to
     separate the sublet space from the remainder of the demised premises shall,
     subject to the provisions of this Lease with respect to alterations,
     installations, additions or improvements, be borne by Tenant;

          (F) Each sublease shall specifically state that (x) it is subject to
     all of the applicable terms, covenants, agreements, provisions, and
     conditions of this Lease, (y) the subtenant will not have the right to a
     further sublease thereunder (except the subtenant of an entire floor of the
     demised premises shall have all the rights to assign and sublease afforded
     to the named Tenant herein (i.e., G-lll Leather Fashions, Inc.); provided,
     notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (vii)(B) of this Article 10,
     such subtenant shall pay to Landlord any and all rents, additional charge
     or other consideration payable under such sub-sublease or otherwise to
     subtenant by the sub-subtenant which is in excess of the fixed annual rent
     and additional rent accruing during the term of such sub-sublease in
     respect of the sub-subleased space (at the rate per square foot payable by
     subtenant thereunder) pursuant to the terms of this Lease (including, but
     not limited to, sums paid for the sale or rental of subtenant's fixtures,
     leasehold improvements, equipment, furniture or other personal property,
     less, in the case of the sale thereof, the then net unamortized or
     undepreciated cost thereof determined on the basis of subtenant's federal
     income tax returns), and less the reasonable costs of effecting such
     transaction, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions, legal
     fees and build out costs, or to allow the demised premises to be used by
     others, without the consent of Landlord in each instance, and (z) a consent
     by Landlord thereto shall not be deemed or construed to modify, amend or
     affect the terms and provisions of this Lease, or Tenant's obligations
     hereunder, which shall continue to apply to the premises involved, and the
     occupants thereof, as if the sublease had not been made;

          (G) Tenant shall, together with requesting Landlord's consent
     hereunder, have paid Landlord any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred
     by Landlord to review the requested consent including any attorneys fees
     incurred by Landlord;

                                      -10-

          (H) The proposed subtenant or assignee is not (w) a retail branch of a
     bank trust company, safe deposit business, savings and loan association or
     loan company; (x) an employment or recruitment agency; (y) a school,
     college, university or educational institution, whether or not for profit;
     (z) a government or any subdivision or agency thereof;

          (I) In the case of a subletting of a portion of the demised premises,
     the layout of the portion so sublet shall be commercially reasonable and
     suitable for normal renting purposes and such subletting will not result in
     more than two (2) occupants (including Tenant) occupying the demised
     premises; and

          (J) Tenant shall not have advertised or listed with any brokers the
     proposed assignment or subletting at a rental rate less than the rental
     rates then being charged under leases being entered into by Landlord for
     comparable space in the Building.

     (vii) If Tenant shall assign this Lease or sublease all or any part of the
     demised premises, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent:

          (A) in the case of an assignment, an amount equal to one- quarter
     (1/4) of all sums and other considerations paid to Tenant by the assignee
     for or by reason of such assignment or otherwise (including, but not
     limited to, sums paid for the sale of Tenant's fixtures, leasehold
     improvements, equipment, furniture, furnishings or other personal property,
     less, in the case of a sale thereof, the then net unamortized or
     undepreciated cost thereof determined on the basis of Tenant's federal
     income tax returns); and

          (B) in the case of a sublease, one-quarter (1/4) of the amount equal
     to any and all rents, additional charge or other consideration payable
     under the sublease or otherwise to Tenant by the subtenant which is in
     excess of the fixed annual rent and additional rent accruing during the
     term of the sublease in respect of the subleased space (at the rate per
     square foot payable by Tenant hereunder) pursuant to the terms hereof
     (including, but not limited to, sums paid for the sale or rental of
     Tenant's fixtures, leasehold improvements, equipment, furniture or other
     personal property, less, in the case of the sale thereof, the then net
     unamortized or undepreciated cost thereof determined on the basis of
     Tenant's federal income tax returns).

                                      -11-

     The sums payable under this subparagraph (vii) shall be paid to Landlord as
     and when paid by the subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, to Tenant.

     (viii) If Tenant defaults in the payment of any rent, Landlord is
     authorized to collect any rents due or accruing from any assignee,
     subtenant or other occupant of the demised premises and to apply the net
     amounts collected to the fixed annual rent and additional rent reserved
     herein. The receipt by Landlord of any amounts from an assignee or
     subtenant, or other occupant of any part of the demised premises shall not
     be deemed or construed as releasing Tenant from Tenant's obligations
     hereunder or the acceptance of that party as a direct tenant."

          (d) The Twelfth Article of the Lease is hereby supplemented with the
following:

     "(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord shall have the
     right and privilege to serve at any time up to six (6) months prior to the
     expiration of the term of this Lease, a notice upon Tenant that any
     'nonstandard alterations' shall be removed and, in the event of service of
     such notice, Tenant will, at Tenant's cost and expense, remove the same in
     accordance with such request and repair any damage to the demised premises
     caused by such removal; provided that Landlord shall have advised Tenant at
     the time it consented to any such nonstandard alteration that Landlord may
     require its removal at the end of the Lease term, if and to the extent that
     Tenant shall have requested in writing such advice from Landlord when it
     requested Landlord's consent to such alteration. For the purposes of this
     Article 12, a 'nonstandard alteration' shall mean auditoriums or similar
     type special use areas, vaults, atriums, kitchen equipment and
     installations, internal stairways, slab reinforcements, raised floors or
     other alterations which impede the installation of duct work or other
     normal installations above the finished ceiling or which are not suitable
     for normal office occupancy or which would be unusually difficult or costly
     to remove in comparison to usual alterations required for general office
     purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed by the
     parties hereto that all improvements and other alterations to the demised
     premises made by or on behalf of Tenant prior to July 1, 2000, shall be
     deemed to be standard alterations which Landlord may not require Tenant to
     remove."

          (e) The Twenty-Second Article of the Lease is hereby deleted and the
following is substituted therefor:

                                      -12-

               (i) Tenant agrees that Landlord shall furnish electricity to
Tenant on a 'submetering' basis. Landlord shall install any submeters reasonably
required, in Landlord's judgment, in the demised premises for the purposes of
this Article, at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Electricity and electric
service, as used herein, shall mean any element affecting the generation,
transmission, and/or distribution or redistribution of electricity, including,
but not limited to, services which facilitate the distribution of service.

               (ii) Tenant covenants and agrees to purchase electricity from
Landlord or Landlord's designated agent at charges, terms and rates, including,
without limitation, fuel adjustments and taxes, equal to those specified in the
Con Edison SC#4-I rate schedule effective on the date Landlord first provides
electricity to the demised premises on a submetering basis (the "effective"
date), or any successor rate schedule or service classification, plus five
percent (5%) for transmission line loss and other redistribution costs. Where
more than one (1) meter measures the service of Tenant in the Building, then the
service registered by each meter shall be aggregated and billed at the
applicable rate as if there were only one (1) sub-meter measuring Tenant's
aggregate use in the entire demised premises. Bills therefore shall be rendered
at such times as Landlord may elect and the amount, as computed from a meter,
shall be deemed to be, and be paid as, Additional Charges. If any tax is imposed
by any Federal, State or Municipal authority upon Landlord's receipts from the
sale or resale of electrical energy to Tenant hereunder, Tenant covenants and
agrees that where permitted by law, Tenant's pro-rata share of such taxes shall
be included in the amount of Additional Charges to be paid by Tenant to Landlord
hereunder.

               (iii) If all or part of the submetering additional rent payable
in accordance with this Article 22 becomes uncollectible or reduced or refunded
by virtue of any law, order or regulation, the parties agree that, at Landlord's
option, in lieu of submetering Additional Charges, and in consideration of
Tenant's use of the Building's electrical distribution system and receipt of
redistributed electricity and payment by Landlord of consultant's fees and other
redistribution costs, the fixed annual rent to be paid under this Lease shall be
increased by an "alternative charge" which shall be the average per rentable
square foot rate payable by Tenant for electricity during the prior twelve (12)
month period pursuant to this Article.

               (iv) Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage or
expense which Tenant may sustain or incur if either the quantity or

                                      -13-

character of electric service is changed or is no longer available or suitable
for Tenant's requirements. Tenant covenants and agrees that at all times its use
of electric current shall never exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the
Building or wiring installation. Any riser or risers to supply Tenant's
electrical requirements, upon written request of Tenant, will be installed by
Landlord, at the sole cost and expense of Tenant, if, in Landlord's reasonable
judgment, the same are reasonably necessary and will not cause permanent damage
or injury to the Building or demised premises or cause or create a dangerous or
hazardous condition or entail excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or
expenses or otherwise interfere with or disturb other tenants or occupants of
the Building except to a de minimis extent. In addition to the installation of
such riser or risers, Landlord will also, at the sole cost and expense of
Tenant, install all other equipment proper and necessary in connection therewith
subject to the aforesaid terms and conditions. The parties acknowledge that they
understand that it is anticipated that electric rates, charges, etc., may be
changed by virtue of time-of-day rates or other methods of billing, electricity
purchases and the redistribution thereof, and that the references in the
foregoing paragraphs to changes in methods of or rules on billing are intended
to include any such changes. Anything hereinabove to the contrary
notwithstanding, in no event is the submetering, additional rent or any
"alternative charge" to be less than an amount equal to the total of Landlord's
payment to public utilities and/or other providers for the electricity consumed
by Tenant (and any taxes thereon or on redistribution of same) plus five percent
(5%) for transmission line loss and other redistribution costs. Landlord
reserves the right to terminate the furnishing of electricity upon sixty (60)
days' prior written notice to Tenant; provided Landlord terminates the
furnishing of electricity to at least fifty percent (50%) of the tenants of the
Building (not including those retail tenants on the ground floor of the
Building) to whom Landlord is furnishing electricity on a submetered basis, in
which event the Tenant may make application directly to the public utility
and/or other providers for the Tenant's entire separate supply of electric
current and Landlord shall permit its wires and conduits, to the extent
available and safely capable, to be used for such purpose, but only to the
extent of Tenant's then authorized load. Any meters, risers, or other equipment
or connections reasonably necessary to furnish electricity on a submetering
basis or to enable Tenant to obtain electric current directly from such utility
and/or other providers shall be installed at Tenant's sole cost and expense.
Only rigid conduit or electrical metal tubing (EMT) will be allowed. Landlord,
upon the expiration of the aforesaid sixty (60) days' prior written notice
period may discontinue furnishing the electric current but this Lease shall
otherwise remain in full force and effect.

                                      -14-

               (v) Tenant's use of electric energy in the demised premises shall
not at any time exceed the capacity of any of the electrical conductors and
equipment in or otherwise serving the demised premises. In order to insure that
such capacity is not exceeded and to avert possible adverse effect upon the
Building's distribution of electricity via the Building's electric system,
Tenant shall not, without Landlord's prior consent in each instance (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), connect any fixtures,
appliances or equipment (other than normal business machines and personal
computers, which do not materially increase Tenant's electrical consumption) to
the Building's electric system or make any alterations or additions to the
electric system of the demised premises existing on the Extended Term
Commencement Date. Landlord shall continue to make electrical energy available
to the demised premises in accordance with current practice.

               (vi) (1) Upon Tenant's request therefor, Landlord shall provide
Tenant with utility invoices and other reasonable documentation supporting its
computation of Additional Charges hereunder.

                    (2) At Landlord's option, Tenant shall purchase from
Landlord or Landlord's agent all lighting tubes, lamps, bulbs and ballasts used
in the demised premises and Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable charges for
providing and installing same, on demand, as additional rent."

          (f) Tenant shall simultaneously upon execution of the First Amendment
of Lease dated as of July 1, 2000 (the "Amendment") deliver to Landlord
additional cash security in the amount of Fourteen Thousand Seven Hundred
Fifty-Nine and 42/100 Dollars ($14,759.42). With Tenant's delivery of this
additional cash security, the amount of security provided for in the
Thirty-Eighth Article of the Lease is hereby amended to be the aggregate amount
of Twenty-Eight Thousand Two Hundred Ninety-Five and 42/100 Dollars
($28,295.42).

          (g) The Thirty-Ninth Article of the Lease is hereby amended as
follows:

               (i) All references to "five (5) days" in subparagraph (a) thereof
are hereby deleted and "fifteen (15) days" is substituted therefor.

                                      -15-

               (ii) Subparagraph (b) thereof is hereby amended by deleting
proviso (1) therefrom and substituting the following therefor:

               "(1) if Tenant shall make default in the payment of the rent
               reserved herein for a period of five (5) days after receipt of
               written notice from Landlord that same is past due or default in
               the payment of additional rent due herein for a period of fifteen
               (15) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord that same
               is past due..."

          (h) The Forty-Eighth Article of the Lease is hereby amended such that
notices sent by Tenant to Landlord shall be sent as set forth in the Lease to
c/o Newmark & Company Real Estate, Inc., 125 Park Avenue, New York, New York
10017. A copy of any default or any other notices shall be sent to Arent Fox
Kintner Plotkin & Kahn, PLLC, 1675 Broadway, New York, New York 10019,
Attention: Jill Hayman, Esq. The Forty-Eighth Article of the Lease is hereby
further amended such that a copy of notices sent by Landlord to Tenant shall
also be sent to Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P., 666 Fifth Avenue, New York, New
York 10103, Attention: Douglas J. Danzig, Esq.

          (i) The Fifty-Seventh Article of the Lease is hereby deleted.

          (j) The term "base tax year" as set forth in the Fifty-Eighth Article
of the Lease is hereby amended to mean "the New York City real estate tax year
commencing July 1, 2000 and ending June 30, 2001".

          (k) The Sixty-Fifth Article of the Lease is hereby deleted and the
following is substituted therefor:

     "SIXTY-FIFTH: - Within fifteen (15) days after the Amendment has been fully
     executed, Landlord shall pay Tenant, as a contribution to the cost of
     Tenant's work to prepare the demised premises for Tenant's occupancy, the
     amount of Fifty-Three Thousand One Hundred Twenty and 00/100 ($53,120.00)
     Dollars. On February 1, 2006, Landlord shall pay Tenant, as a second (2nd)
     contribution to the cost of Tenant's work to prepare the demised premises
     for Tenant's occupancy, the amount of One Hundred Fifty-Nine Thousand Three
     Hundred Sixty and 00/100 ($159,360.00) Dollars."

                                      -16-

          (l) The Sixty-Seventh Article of the Lease is hereby deleted and the
following is substituted therefor:

     "SIXTY-SEVENTH: - (i) If Tenant shall fail to pay any installment of fixed
     annual rent for more than five (5) days after the same becomes due and
     payable or any amount of additional rent for more than fifteen (15) days
     after the same becomes due and payable (collectively, the "Default
     Periods"), Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge of ten cents ($0.10) for
     each dollar of such fixed annual rent or additional rent as shall not have
     been paid to Landlord within said respective Default Periods. Such late
     charge shall be without prejudice to any of Landlord's rights and remedies
     hereunder or at law for nonpayment of rent, shall be in addition thereto
     and shall be deemed to be additional rent. Notwithstanding anything to the
     contrary contained herein, Tenant shall be permitted to pay an installment
     of fixed annual rent late once per calendar year without incurring a late
     charge, provided such payment is received no later than the tenth (10th)
     day of the month in which such payment is due. Further, notwithstanding
     anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall waive the late
     charge for one (1) late payment of additional rent by Tenant per calendar
     year, provided such payment is received no later than thirty (30) days
     after the date such payment was due.

     (ii) If in accordance with the Thirty-Ninth Article of the Lease, Tenant
     shall be in default in the payment of (A) any installment of fixed annual
     rent or any amount of additional rent or (B) any other sum of money which
     shall become due and payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of
     this Lease or by reason of Tenant's occupancy of the demised premises, in
     addition to (and not in lieu of) the late charge provided for in
     subparagraph (i) above, Tenant shall pay interest thereon at a rate equal
     to the lesser of four percent (4%) above the prime rate per annum from time
     to time set forth in The Wall Street Journal, calculated on the basis of
     the actual days elapsed, based on a 360-day year, or the minimum rate of
     interest allowed by applicable law(s), if any, then prevailing, from the
     date on which such installment or payment is due to the date of payment
     thereof, and such interest shall be deemed to be additional rent.

     (iii) Except as required by statute and under the laws, nothing contained
     in Article 39 or in this Article 67 shall be deemed to require Landlord to
     give the notices therein or herein (if any) provided for prior to the
     commencement of a summary proceeding for nonpayment of rent or a plenary
     action for the recovery of rent on account of any

                                      -17-

     default in the payment of the same, it being intended that such notices are
     for the sole purpose of creating a conditional limitation hereunder
     pursuant to which this Lease shall terminate and if Tenant thereafter
     remains in possession or occupancy, it shall become a holdover tenant."

          (m) The Sixty-Eighth Article of the Lease is hereby deleted and the
following is substituted therefor:

     "SIXTY-EIGHTH: - (i) This Lease shall be governed in all respects by the
     laws of the State of New York.

     (ii) If, in connection with obtaining financing for the Building, a bank,
     insurance company or other lending institution shall request reasonable
     modifications to this Lease as a condition to such financing, Tenant will
     not unreasonably withhold, delay or defer its consent thereto, provided
     that such modifications do not increase the obligations of Tenant
     hereunder, decrease the obligations of Landlord hereunder, except to a de
     minimis extent, or otherwise materially or adversely affect Tenant's
     leasehold interest hereby created.

     (iii) Tenant shall not be entitled to exercise any right of termination or
     other option granted to it by this Lease (if any) at any time when Tenant
     is in monetary default, after applicable notice, grace and/or cure periods,
     in the performance or observance of any of the covenants, terms, provisions
     or conditions on its part to be performed or observed under this Lease.

     (iv) Tenant shall not occupy any space in the Building (by assignment,
     sublease or otherwise) other than the demised premises or other premises
     leased to Tenant directly by Landlord (except if the named Tenant herein is
     subsequently purchased by a third party which leases space in the
     Building), except with the prior written consent of Landlord in each
     instance.

     (v) Tenant acknowledges that it has no rights to any development rights,
     "air rights" or comparable rights appurtenant to the land or building, and
     consents, without further consideration, to any utilization of such rights
     by Landlord and agrees to promptly execute and deliver any instruments
     which may be requested by Landlord, including instruments which may be
     reasonably requested by Landlord, including instruments merging zoning
     lots, evidencing acknowledgment and

                                      -18-

     consent. The provisions of this paragraph shall be deemed to be and shall
     be construed as an express waiver by Tenant of any interest Tenant may have
     as a "party in interest" (as such quoted term is defined in Section 12
     Zoning Lot of the Zoning Resolution of the City of New York) in the
     building or the land.

     (vi) Any and all payments and charges to be paid by Tenant hereunder other
     than the annual rent payable pursuant to this Lease shall be additional
     rent hereunder for non-payment of which Landlord shall have all of the
     remedies provided herein or at law.

     (vii) If this Lease be a renewal of an existing lease between the parties
     or their predecessors in interest, then any obligation of Tenant for the
     payment of rent or additional rent or the performance of any obligation
     under such existing lease which accrues prior to the expiration thereof
     shall constitute an obligation under this Lease, except as modified by the
     Amendment (as that term is defined in Article 38 of this Lease), for
     non-payment or non-performance for which Landlord shall have all of the
     remedies provided herein."

          (n) The Sixty-Ninth Article of the Lease is hereby deleted and the
following is substituted therefor:

     "SIXTY-NINTH: - As a material inducement to Landlord for entering into this
     Lease, Tenant covenants and agrees that except for the inside surfaces of
     all walls, windows and doors bounding the demised premises, all of the
     remainder of the Building is exclusively reserved to Landlord, subject to
     Tenant's right to use the common areas of the Building in accordance with
     the applicable provisions of this Lease (including, without limitation, the
     lobby, elevators and core bathrooms, as opposed to private bathrooms, on
     the thirty-third (33rd) floor of the Building). Notwithstanding anything to
     the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall have the right to use in
     accordance with the Lease, the electric and telephone closets and so-called
     "slop" sinks on the thirty-third (33rd) floor of the Building."

          (o) The second sentence of the Twenty-First Article of the Lease shall
be amended to read as follows:

                                      -19-

     "Landlord or Landlord's agents shall have the right to enter the demised
     premises at reasonable times after notice (which may be oral) to Tenant to
     examine the same..."

     4. Each party hereto covenants, warrants and represents to the other party
that it has had no dealings, conversations or negotiations with any broker other
than Newmark & Company Real Estate, Inc., concerning the execution and delivery
of this Amendment. Each party hereto agrees to defend, indemnify and hold
harmless the other party against and from any claims for any brokerage
commissions and all costs, expenses and liabilities in connection therewith,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements,
arising out of its respective representations and warranties contained in this
Paragraph 4 being untrue. Landlord shall pay any brokerage fees which may be due
to Newmark & Company Real Estate, Inc. in connection with this Amendment
pursuant to a separate agreement.

     5. Except as expressly set forth in this Amendment, the terms and
conditions of the Lease shall continue in full force and effect without any
change or modification and shall apply for the balance of the term of the Lease
as hereby extended. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Lease
and the terms of this Amendment, the terms of this Amendment shall govern.

     6. This Amendment shall not be altered, amended, changed, waived,
terminated or otherwise modified in any respect or particular, and no consent or
approval required pursuant to this Amendment shall be effective, unless the same
shall be in writing and signed by or on behalf of the party to be charged.

     7. This Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and to their respective heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and permitted assigns.

     8. All prior statements, understandings, representations and agreements
between the parties, oral or written, are superseded by and merged in this
Amendment, which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement between them
in connection with this transaction and which is entered into after full
investigation, neither party relying upon any statement, understanding,
representation or agreement made by the other not embodied in this Amendment
relating to the demised premises. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant occupies
other space in the Building pursuant to separate agreements between Landlord and
Tenant which may be renewed and amended from time to time.

     9. No failure or delay of either party in the exercise of any right or
remedy given to such party hereunder or the waiver by any party of any condition

                                      -20-

hereunder for its benefit (unless the time specified herein for exercise of such
right or remedy has expired) shall constitute a waiver of any other or further
right or remedy nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy
preclude other or further exercise thereof or any other right or remedy. No
waiver by either party of any breach hereunder or failure or refusal by the
other party to comply with its obligations shall be deemed a waiver of any other
or subsequent breach, failure or refusal to so comply.

     10. This Amendment shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the state in which the demised premises are located without reference to
principles of conflicts of laws.

     11. If any provision of this Amendment shall be unenforceable or invalid,
the same shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Amendment and to this
end the provisions of this Amendment are intended to be and shall be severable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if (i) any provision of this Amendment
is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable
or invalid in whole or in part, (ii) the opportunity for all appeals of such
determination have expired, and (iii) such unenforceability or invalidity alters
the substance of this Amendment (taken as a whole) so as to deny either party,
in a material way, the realization of the intended benefit of its bargain, such
party may terminate this Amendment within thirty (30) days after the final
determination by notice to the other. If such party so elects to terminate this
Amendment, then this Amendment shall be terminated and neither party shall have
any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except those
obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Amendment.

     12. LANDLORD AND TENANT HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY,
UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EACH MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER ARISING IN TORT OR CONTRACT)
BROUGHT BY EITHER AGAINST THE OTHER ON ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY
CONNECTED WITH THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED AND DELIVERED BY
EITHER PARTY IN CONNECTION HEREWITH (INCLUDING ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL
THIS AMENDMENT ON THE GROUNDS THAT THIS AMENDMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS
OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE).

     13. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts. It is not
necessary that all parties sign all or any one of the counterparts, but each
party must sign at least one counterpart for this Amendment to be effective.

                                      -21-

     14. This Amendment shall not be binding upon either party unless and until
it is fully executed and delivered to both parties.
