statement, pay Additional Rent in accordance with LANDLORD'S statement, and such
payment shall be without prejudice to TENANT'S position. If the dispute shall be
determined in TENANT'S favor, LANDLORD shall forthwith apply the amount of
TENANT'S overpayment of rents resulting from compliance with LANDLORD'S
statement, without interest being due thereon, in accordance with Subsection
5.3.3 hereof. LANDLORD agrees to grant to an independent certified public
accountant retained by TENANT reasonable access to LANDLORD'S books and records

notice from the indemnified party, shall defend the same at the indemnifying
party's expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.

customers, invitees, or business visitors of such other party or of such other
TENANT or occupant of the Building, for loss or damage arising out of or
incident to the perils which the releasing party is required to insure against
under provisions of Paragraph 13, which perils occur in, on, or about the
premises or the building of which the premises are a part, whether due to the
negligence of LANDLORD or TENANT or their respective agents, employees,
contractors, or invites, if and to the extent that such loss or damage (i) is
actually compensated by insurance or (ii) would have been compensated by
insurance except for the fact that the insuring company availed itself of a
defense arising from the action or failure to act of the releasing party, its
employees or agents. Each party shall, upon obtaining the policies of insurance
which it is required to maintain under this Lease, give notice to its insurance
company or companies that the foregoing mutual waiver of subrogation is
contained in this lease. Each party shall cause each such insurance policy
obtained by it to provide that the insurance company waive all rights of
recovery by way of subrogation against either party in connection with any
damage or liability covered by such policy. If any insurance policy cannot be
obtained with a waiver of subrogation, or is obtainable only by the payment of
an additional premium charge above that charged by insurance companies issuing
policies with out waiver of subrogation, the party undertaking to obtain the
insurance shall notify the other party of such fact. The other party shall have
a period of ten ( 10) days after receiving the notice either to place the
insurance with a company that is reasonably satisfactory to the other party and
that will carry the insurance with a waiver of subrogation, or to agree to pay
the additional premium if such a policy is obtainable at additional cost. If the
insurance cannot be obtained with a waiver of subrogation or the party in whose
favor a waiver of subrogation is desired refuses to pay the additional premium
charge, the other party shall be relieved of the obligation to obtain a waiver
of subrogation rights with respect to that particular insurance policy.

material accidents in the Premises or of material defects therein or in any

protect and hold LANDLORD harmless and shall pay all costs, expenses, and
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred therein. In case TENANT, without fault on
its part, shall be made a party to any litigation commenced by or against

fees incurred therein.

        13.2.4 If TENANT operates owned, hired, or nonowner vehicles on the
Property, comprehensive automobile liability at a limit of liability not less
than $500,000 combined bodily injury and property damage.

        13.3 Forms of Policies. Certificates of insurance, together with copies
of the endorsements, when applicable, naming LANDLORD and any others specified
by LANDLORD as additional insures, at the sole discretion of LANDLORD, will be
delivered to LANDLORD prior to TENANT'S occupancy of the premises and from time
to time at least 10 days prior to the expiration of the term of each such
policy. All general liability and property policies maintained by TENANT will be
written as primary policies, not contributing with and not supplemental to the
coverage that LANDLORD may carry.

14. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.

        14.1 LANDLORD'S Obligations. If the Premises shall be partially damaged
by any casualty insured against under any insurance policy maintained by
LANDLORD, LANDLORD shall, upon receipt of the insurance proceeds, repair the
Premises within 180 days of the date of damage. Until such repair is complete,
the Basic Monthly Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated from the date of
damage proportionately as to that portion of the Premises rendered untenantable,
if any. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (a) by reason of such occurrence the
Premises are rendered wholly untenantable; or (b) the Premises are damaged as a
result of a risk which is not covered by insurance; or (c) the Premises are
damaged in whole or in part during the last six (6) months of the term hereof or
of any renewal hereof; or (d) the Premises or the Building (whether the Premises
are damaged or not) is damaged to the extent of fifty percent (50%) or more of
then-monetary value thereof, LANDLORD may either elect to repair the damage or
LANDLORD or TENANT may cancel this Lease by notice of cancellation within ninety
(90) days after such event provided the damage materially impairs access to or
operation of TENANT'S Premises, and there upon this Lease shall expire, and
TENANT shall vacate and surrender the Premises to

<PAGE>   15

LANDLORD. TENANT's liability for rent upon the termination of this Lease shall
cease as of the effective date of such termination. In the event LANDLORD elects
to repair any such damage, any abatement of rent shall end five (5) days after
notice by LANDLORD to TENANT that the Premises have been repaired and TENANT has
accepted said repairs, which acceptance TENANT shall not unreasonably withhold.
If the damage is caused by the gross negligence of TENANT or its employees,
agents, invites or concessionaires, there shall be no abatement of rent . Except
for abatement of rent, if any, TENANT shall have no claim against LANDLORD for
any damage suffered by reason of such damage, destruction, repair or
restoration, nor shall TENANT have the right to terminate this Lease as a result
of any statutory provision now or hereafter in effect pertaining to the damage
and destruction of the Premises or the Building, except as expressly herein
provided. The proceeds of all insurance carried by TENANT on its property and
fixtures shall be held in trust by TENANT for the purpose of said repair and
replacement. TENANT shall have the right to terminate this Lease if (a) the
repairs to the Premises are not completed within 180 days of the date of damage;
or (b) by reason of such occurrence the Premises are rendered wholly
untenantable; or (c) the Premises are damaged in whole or in part during the
last six (6) months of the term hereof and the Premises or the Building (whether
the Premises are damaged or not) is damaged to the extent of fifty percent (50%)
or more of then-monetary value thereof.

        14.2 TENANT'S Obligation. LANDLORD shall not be required to repair any
injury or damage caused by fire or any other cause, or to make any restoration
or replacement of any paneling, decoration, partition, railing, floor covering,
office fixture or any other improvement or property installed in the Premises by
TENANT or at the direct or indirect expense of TENANT. Unless this Lease is
terminated pursuant to Subsection 15.1 hereof, TENANT shall be required to
restore or replace such improvements and property in the event of injury or
damage in at least a condition equal to that existing prior to the destruction
or casualty.

15. CONDEMNATION.

        15.1 Total Condemnation. If the whole of the Premises shall be acquired
or taken by condemnation proceeding, this Lease shall cease and terminate as of
the date of title vesting in such condemnor.

        15.2 Partial Condemnation. If any part of the Premises shall be acquired
or taken by condemnation proceeding, and such partial taking shall render that
portion not so taken unsuitable for the business of TENANT, then this Lease
shall cease and terminate as of the date of title vesting in such condemnor. If
such partial taking does not render the Premises unsuitable for the business of
TENANT, this Lease shall continue in effect except that the Basic Monthly Rent
and Additional Rent shall be reduced from the time of taking in the same
proportion that the portion of the Premises taken bears to the total rented area
of the Premises immediately prior to the taking. LANDLORD shall, upon receipt of
the award in condemnation, make all necessary repairs or alterations to the
Building in which the Premises are located; provided, however, that LANDLORD
shall not be required to expend for such work an amount in excess of the amount
received by LANDLORD as damages for the part of the Premises so taken. Amount
received by LANDLORD shall mean that part of the award in condemnation which is
free and clear to LANDLORD of any collection by mortgage lenders for the value
of the diminished fee.

        15.3 LANDLORD'S Option to Terminate. If more than twenty percent (20%)
of the Building shall be acquired or taken by condemnation proceeding, LANDLORD
may, by written notice to TENANT, terminate this Lease. If this Lease is
terminated as provided in this Subsection 15.3, rent shall be paid up to the day
that possession is so taken by public authority and LANDLORD shall make an
equitable refund of any rent paid by TENANT in advance.

        15.4 Award. TENANT shall not be entitled to any condemnation award for
any taking, whether whole or partial and whether for diminution in value of the
leasehold or the fee, and assigns to LANDLORD all rights of TENANT, if any, to
receive such award, although TENANT shall have the right, to the extent that the
same shall not reduce LANDLORD'S award, to claim from the condemnor, but not
from LANDLORD, such compensation as may be recoverable by TENANT in its own
right for TENANT'S relocation costs and for damages to TENANT'S business and
fixtures.

        15.5 Definitions. As used in this Section 15 the term condemnation
proceeding means any action or proceeding in which any interest in the Premises
is taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful authority through
exercise of the power of eminent domain or right of condemnation or by purchase
or otherwise in lieu of and under threat of condemnation. The definition of
Premises shall be expanded to include elevators, parking and common areas.

        16. LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE. In the event of any noncompliance
hereunder by LANDLORD, TENANT shall, before exercising any right or remedy
available to it, give LANDLORD written notice of such noncompliance. If prior to
its giving such notice TENANT has been notified in writing of the address of a
Lender which has furnished any of the financing referred to in Section 17
hereof, concurrently with giving the aforesaid notice to LANDLORD, TENANT shall,
by registered or certified mail postage prepaid, transmit a copy thereof to such
Lender. For the thirty (30) days following the giving of the notice(s) required
by the foregoing portion of this Section 16 (or such longer period of time as
may be reasonably required to cure a matter which, due to its nature, cannot
reasonably be rectified within thirty (30) days), LANDLORD shall have the right
to cure the noncompliance involved. If LANDLORD has failed to effect such cure
within such period, any such Lender shall have an additional thirty (30) days
within which to cure the same or, if such default cannot be cured within that
period, such additional time as may be necessary, if within such thirty (30) day
period said Lender has commenced and is diligently pursuing the actions or
remedies necessary to cure the noncompliance involved (including, but not
limited to, commencement and

<PAGE>   16

prosecution of proceedings to foreclose or otherwise exercise its rights under
its mortgage or other security instrument, if necessary to effect such cure), in
which event this Lease shall not be terminated by TENANT so long as such actions
or remedies are being diligently pursued by said Lender. LANDLORD shall not be
liable to TENANT for any default under this Lease which occurs after the sale of
the Building by LANDLORD, and TENANT agrees that its rights with respect to any
such default, if asserted, shall be asserted against LANDLORD'S successor in
interest, and not against LANDLORD.

17. SUBORDINATION: AMENDMENT: ATTORNMENT.

        17.1 Subordination. This Lease, at LANDLORD'S option, shall be
subordinate to any existing or future mortgage, deed of trust, ground lease or
declaration of covenants (regarding maintenance and use of any areas contained
in any portion of the Building), declaration of planned unit development,
including, without limitation, the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and
Restrictions of South Towne, any and all advances made under any mortgage or
deed of trust and all renewals, modifications, amendments, consolidations,
replacements and extensions thereof. TENANT agrees that with respect to any of
the foregoing documents, no documentation, other than this Lease, shall be
required to evidence such subordination. If any holder of a mortgage or deed of
trust shall elect to have this Lease superior to the lien of its mortgage or
deed of trust and shall give written notice thereof to TENANT, this Lease shall
be deemed prior to such mortgage or deed of trust or to the date of recording
thereof. TENANT agrees to execute such documents which may be required by
LANDLORD to confirm such subordination or priority within ten (10) days of
request therefor from LANDLORD. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Subsection 17.1, so long as TENANT fulfills all its
obligations under this Lease, TENANT'S rights under this Lease shall not be
disturbed or impaired by any holder of a mortgage or a deed of trust, or by any
person claiming through or under LANDLORD. TENANT shall not subordinate its
interests hereunder or in the Premises to any lien or encumbrance other than
those encumbrances described in this Subsection 17.1 without the prior consent
of LANDLORD. Any attempted unauthorized subordination by TENANT shall be void
and of no force or effect.

17.2 Not Used.

        17.3 Attornment. Any sale, assignment or transfer of LANDLORD'S interest
under this Lease or in the Premises, including any such disposition resulting
from LANDLORD'S default under a debt obligation, shall be subject to this Lease
and TENANT shall attorn to LANDLORD'S successors and assigns and shall recognize
such successors or assigns as LANDLORD under this Lease, regardless of any rule
of law to the contrary or absence of privity of contract.

18. DEFAULT: REMEDIES: ABANDONMENT: PAST SUMS DUE: PENALTY.

        18.1 Default by TENANT. Upon the occurrence of any of the following
events, LANDLORD shall have the remedies set forth in Subsection 18.2:

        18.1.1 TENANT fails to pay any installment of Basic Monthly Rent or
Additional Rent or any other sum due hereunder within fifteen ( 15) calendar
days of when the same shall be due. In event of default as provided for in this
Section 18.1.1 TENANT shall have 10 days after receipt of written notice from
LANDLORD to cure the default prior to LANDLORD exercising any other action or
remedies as provided for in the Lease or under Utah law. Not withstanding any
default referenced by this Section 18.1.1 any monthly rent payment received
after five (5) days shall be subject to the provisions of Section 18.7.

        18.1.2 TENANT fails to perform any other term, condition, or covenant to
be performed by it pursuant to this Lease within thirty (30) days after written
notice of such default shall have been given to TENANT by LANDLORD or if cure
would reasonably require more than thirty (30) days to complete if TENANT fails
to commence performance within the thirty (30) day period or fails to diligently
pursue such cure to completion.

        18.1.3 TENANT or any guarantor of this Lease shall become bankrupt or
insolvent or file any debtor proceedings or have taken against such party in any
court pursuant to state or federal statute, a petition in bankruptcy or
insolvency, reorganization, or appointment of a receiver of trustee; or TENANT
petitions for or enters into an arrangement; or suffers this Lease to be taken
under a writ of execution.

        18.1.4 If an abandonment of the Premises by TENANT has occurred, as
defined in Section 78-36-12.3 of the Utah Code Ann. (or similar replacement
provision).

        18.2 LANDLORD'S Remedies. If any one or more of the events of default
set forth in Section 18.1 occurs and is not cured, then LANDLORD shall have,
besides other rights and remedies it may have at law or equity, the following
remedies:

        18.2.1 To give TENANT written notice of LANDLORD'S intention to
terminate this Lease on the earliest date permitted by law or on any later date
specified in such notice, in which case TENANT'S right to possession of the
premises will cease and this Lease will be terminated, except as to TENANT'S
liability, as if the expiration of the term fixed in such notice were the end of
the term;

        18.2.2 Without further demand or notice, after thirty (30) days from
written notice of default from LANDLORD and failure to cure default by TENANT,
to reenter and take possession of the premises or any part of the premises,
repossess the same, expel TENANT and those claiming through

<PAGE>   17

or under TENANT, and remove the effects of both or either, using such force for
such purposes as may be necessary, without being liable for prosecution, without
being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and without prejudice to any
remedies for arrears of monthly rent or other amounts payable under this Lease
or as a result of any preceding breach of covenants or conditions; or

        18.2.3 Without further demand or notice to cure any event of default and
to charge TENANT for the cost of effecting such cure, including without
limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and interest on the amount so advanced at
the Interest Rate set forth in Section 9.2, provided that LANDLORD will have no
obligation to cure any such event of default of TENANT.

        18.2.4 Should LANDLORD elect to reenter as provided in subsection
18.2.2, or should LANDLORD take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or
pursuant to any notice provided by law, LANDLORD may, from time to time, without
terminating this Lease, relet the premises or any part of the premises in
LANDLORD'S or TENANT'S name, but for the account of TENANT, for such term or
terms (which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have
constituted the balance of the term) and on such conditions and upon such other
terms (which may include concessions of free rent and alteration and repair of
the premises) as LANDLORD, in its reasonable discretion, may determine, and
LANDLORD may collect and receive the rent. No such reentry or taking possession
of the premises by LANDLORD will be construed as an election on LANDLORD'S part
to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to
TENANT. No written notice from LANDLORD under this Section or under a forcible
or unlawful entry and detainer statute or similar law will constitute an
election by LANDLORD to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so
states. LANDLORD reserves the right following any such reentry or reletting to
exercise its right to terminate this Lease by giving TENANT such written notice,
in which event this Lease will terminate as specified in such notice. LANDLORD
shall make a reasonable effort to relet the Premises in the event of TENANT
default and vacating of the Premises.

        18.3 Certain Damages. In the event that LANDLORD does not elect to
terminate this Lease as permitted in Section 18.2.1, but on the contrary elects
to take possession as provided in Section 18.2.2, TENANT will pay to LANDLORD
monthly rent and other sums as provided in this Lease that would be payable
under this Lease if such repossession had not occurred, less the net proceeds,
if any, of any reletting of the premises after deducting all of LANDLORD'S
reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting, including without
limitation all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, attorneys' fees,
expenses of employees, alteration and repair costs, and expenses of preparation
for such reletting. If, in connection with any reletting, the new Lease term
extends beyond the existing term, or the premises covered by such new Lease
include other premises not part of the premises, a fair apportionment of the
rent received from such reletting and the expenses incurred in connection with
such reletting as provided in this Section will be made in determining the net
proceeds from such reletting, and any rent concessions will be equally
apportioned over the term of the new Lease. TENANT will pay such rent and other
sums to LANDLORD monthly on the day on which the monthly rent would have been
payable under this Lease if possession had not been retaken, and LANDLORD will
be entitled to receive such rent and other sums from TENANT on each such day.

        18.4 Continuing Liability After Termination. If this Lease is terminated
on account of the occurrence of an event of default, TENANT will remain liable
to LANDLORD for damages in an amount equal to monthly rent and other amounts
that would have been owing by TENANT for the balance of the term, had this Lease
not been terminated, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the
premises by LANDLORD subsequent to such termination, after deducting all of
LANDLORD'S expenses in connection with such reletting, including without
limitation the expenses enumerated in Section 18.3. LANDLORD will be entitled to
collect such damages from TENANT monthly on the day on which monthly rent and
other amounts would have been payable under this Lease if this Lease had not
been terminated, and LANDLORD will be entitled to receive such monthly rent and
other amounts from TENANT on each such day.

        18.5 Cumulative Remedies. Any suit or suits for the recovery of the
amounts and damages set forth in Sections 18.3 and 18.4 may be brought by
LANDLORD, from time to time, at LANDLORD'S election, and nothing in this Lease
will be deemed to require LANDLORD to await the date upon which this Lease or
the term would have expired had there occurred no event of default. Each right
and remedy provided for in this Lease is cumulative and is in addition to every
other right or remedy provided for in this Lease or now or after the Lease date
existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or
beginning of the exercise by LANDLORD of any one or more of the rights or
remedies provided for in this Lease or now or after the Lease date existing at
law or in equity or by statute or otherwise will not preclude the simultaneous
or later exercise by LANDLORD of any or all other rights or remedies provided
for in this Lease or now or after the Lease date existing at law or in equity or
by statute or otherwise. All costs incurred by LANDLORD in collecting any
amounts and damages owing by TENANT pursuant to the provisions of this Lease or
to enforce any provision of this Lease, including reasonable attorneys' fees
from the date any such matter is turned over to an attorney, whether or not one
or more actions are commenced by LANDLORD, will also be recoverable by LANDLORD
from TENANT.

        18.6 Waiver of Redemption. TENANT waives any right of redemption arising
as a result of LANDLORD'S exercise of its remedies under this Section 18.

        18.7 Past Due Sums: Penalty. Except as otherwise expressly provided for
in this Lease, if TENANT fails to pay, when the same is due and payable, or
within five (5) calendar days thereafter, any sum required to be paid by it
hereunder, such unpaid amount shall bear interest from the due date thereof to
the date

<PAGE>   18

of payment at a fluctuating rate equal to five percent (5%) per annum above the
prime rate of interest charged by Zions First National Bank, Salt Lake City,
Utah. In addition thereto, LANDLORD may charge a sum of five percent (5%) of
such unpaid amounts as a service fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, LANDLORD'S
right concerning such interest and service fee shall be limited by the maximum
amount which legally may be charged by LANDLORD for such purposes under
applicable law.

        19. TENANT'S RIGHT TO EARLY TERMINATION. TENANT shall have a one-time
option during the Lease term to terminate this Lease after the end of the first
Thirty-six (36) months of the Lease term from the commencement date of the Lease
upon the following terms and conditions:

        19.1 NO DEFAULT. TENANT's option to terminate the Lease shall at all
times be subject to this Lease being in full force and effect, TENANT's not
being in default hereunder and TENANT's not having assigned the Lease or sublet
the premises;

        19.2 WRITTEN NOTICE. TENANT must deliver to LANDLORD at least six (6)
months prior written notice of its intent to terminate this Lease:

        19.3 TERMINATION PENALTY. Accompanying TENANT's notice shall be a
termination payment which payment will be in addition to regular rent payments,
equal to the following:

        19.4 UNAMORTIZED COST OF TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AND LEASE COMMISSION FOR
ORIGINAL PREMISES. TENANT improvements amount for Original Premises has been
established at $87~480, and upon early termination will be calculated and
prorated as of the termination date using a straight-line amortization method
for a 60-month period, commencing with the date of the Original Lease. Leasing
commission for the original Premises will be calculated in the same manner.

        20. END OF TERM. At the end of this Lease, TENANT will promptly quit and
surrender the premises broom-clean, in good order and repair, ordinary wear and
tear excepted. If TENANT is not then in material default, TENANT may remove from
the premises any trade fixtures, equipment, and movable furniture placed in the
premises by TENANT, whether or not such trade fixtures or equipment are fastened
to the building; TENANT will not remove any trade fixtures or equipment without
LANDLORD'S prior written consent if such fixtures or equipment are used in the
operation of the building, or if the removal of such fixtures or equipment will
result in impairing the structural strength of the building. Whether or not
TENANT is in default, TENANT will remove such alterations, additions,
improvements, trade fixtures, equipment, and furniture as LANDLORD has requested
in accordance with Section 9.3: TENANT will fully repair any damage occasioned
by the removal of any trade fixtures, equipment, furniture, alterations,
additions, and improvements. All trade fixtures, equipment, furniture,
inventory, effects, alterations, additions, and improvements on the Premises 10
days after the end of the term will be deemed conclusively to have been
abandoned and may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed, or otherwise
disposed of by LANDLORD without written notice to TENANT or any other person and
without obligation to account for them. TENANT will pay LANDLORD for all
expenses incurred in connection with the removal of such property, including but
not limited to the cost of repairing any damage to the building or premises
caused by the removal of such property. TENANT'S obligation to observe and
perform this covenant will survive the expiration or other termination of this
Lease.

21. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.

        21.1 LANDLORD'S Right to Estoppel Certificate. TENANT shall, within
fifteen ( 15) days after LANDLORD'S request therefore, execute and deliver to
LANDLORD an Estoppel Certificate in recordable form setting forth the following:
(a) a ratification of this Lease; (b) the Actual Commencement Date and
termination date hereof; (c) a certification that this Lease is in full force
and effect and has not been assigned, modified, supplemented or amended (except
by such writing as shall be stated); (d) that all conditions under this Lease to
be performed by LANDLORD have been satisfied or a statement of any conditions
not satisfied; (e) that there are no defenses or offsets against the enforcement
of this Lease by LANDLORD, or, in the alternative, those claimed by TENANT; (f)
the amount of advance rent, if any, (or none if such is the case) paid by
TENANT; (g) the date to which rent has been paid; (h) the amount of security
deposited with LANDLORD; and (i) such other information as LANDLORD (or its
mortgagees or potential purchasers of the Premises) may reasonably request. In
the event TENANT fails within fifteen (15) days after LANDLORD has delivered to
TENANT an Estoppel Certificate pursuant to this Subsection 21.1 to properly
execute and deliver the same to LANDLORD, TENANT shall be deemed to have
consented to such Estoppel Certificate as written. LANDLORD'S mortgage lenders
and/or purchasers shall be entitled to rely upon such declaration. LANDLORD
agrees to pay reasonable out of pocket expenses for TENANT'S review and
processing for written estoppel requests by LANDLORD in excess of two requests
in any one year.

        21.2 Effect of Failure to Provide Estoppel Certificate. TENANT'S failure
to furnish any Estoppel Certificate pursuant to Subsection 21. I hereof within
fifteen ( 15) days after written request is made by LANDLORD therefor shall be
deemed a default hereunder and, moreover, it shall be conclusively presumed that
(a) this Lease is in full force and effect without modification in accordance
with the terms set forth in the request; (b) there are no breaches or defaults
on the part of LANDLORD; and (c) no more than one month's rent has been paid in
advance.

22. COMMON AREAS.

<PAGE>   19

        22.1 Definition of Common Areas. Common Areas means all areas, space,
equipment and special services provided for the joint or common use and benefit
of the TENANTS or occupants of the Building and related Land or portions
thereof, and their employees, agents, licensees and other invites (collectively
referred to herein as Occupants), including without limitation, the following:
parking areas, access roads, driveways, plaza retaining walls, landscaped areas,
service ways, loading docks, pedestrian walks, courts, stairs, ramps and
sidewalks, common corridors, monuments, water features, lobby elevators, rooms
and rest rooms, air conditioning, fan, janitorial, electrical and telephone
rooms or closets, and all other areas within the Building which are not
specified for exclusive use or occupancy by LANDLORD or any TENANT (whether or
not they are Leased or occupied).

        22.2 License to Use Common Areas. The Common Areas shall be available
for the common use of all occupants and to the extent such access to the Common
Areas has been or shall be granted, also shall be used by the general public. If
the amount of such areas shall be changed or diminished, LANDLORD shall not be
subject to any liability to TENANT in any respect, provided LANDLORD will take
no action permitted under this section 22 in such a manner as to materially
impair or adversely affect TENANT'S substantial benefit and enjoyment of the
premises. All Common Areas shall be subject to the exclusive control and
management of LANDLORD.

        22.3 Deliveries. All deliveries to and from the Premises shall be made
using those areas of the Building designated for deliveries by LANDLORD, during
the time periods reasonably specified by LANDLORD, and so as to cause the
minimum amount of interference with the business of other TENANTS of the
Building or impedance of traffic corridors or blockage of stairwells or fire
exits from the Building.

        22.4 Parking. Subject to TENANT'S rights under Section 2 hereof,
automobiles of TENANT and all Occupants associated with TENANT shall be parked
only within parking areas not otherwise reserved by LANDLORD or specifically
designated to use by any other tenant and/or occupants associated with any other
tenant, and shall observe visitor parking time limitations. LANDLORD or its
agents, shall, without any liability to TENANT or its occupants have the right
(but not the obligation) to cause to be removed any automobile that may be
wrongfully parked in a prohibited or reserved parking area, and TENANT agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless LANDLORD from and against any and all claims
asserted or arising with respect to or in connection with any such removal of an
automobile of TENANT. TENANT shall from time to time, upon request of LANDLORD,
supply LANDLORD with a list of license plate numbers of all automobiles owned by
TENANT or its day-to-day Occupants. TENANT shall not allow its employees or
agents to park in uncovered parking spaces overnight without prior written
consent of LANDLORD. Upon 24 hours notice, TENANT shall temporarily relocate all
TENANT owned vehicles to a location designated by LANDLORD for the duration of
any parking lot maintenance activities. TENANTS of the Building may exercise and
will be subject to, the parking rights as contained herein on any portion of the
adjacent Towers Phase III subdivision properties which are asphalted and
improved for parking.

        23. SIGNS~ AWNINGS AND CANOPIES. LANDLORD, at LANDLORD's expense shall
install identification signs for TENANT, in accordance with LANDLORD's signage
standards. TENANT shall not place or suffer to be placed or maintained on any
exterior door, exterior wall or window of the Premises, or in the Premises
visible to the Common Areas of the Building, or elsewhere in the Building, any
sign, awning, marquee, decoration, lettering, attachment, canopy, advertising
matter or other thing of any kind, without first obtaining LANDLORD'S written
approval. Signs inside the Premises not visible from the Common Areas of the
Building are not prohibited by this paragraph. LANDLORD may, at TENANT'S cost,
and without liability to TENANT, enter the Premises and remove any item erected
in violation of this Section 23. All signage shall further be subject to
approval by the City of South Jordan.

with all laws, statutes, ordinances, and governmental rules, regulations, or
requirements now in force or in force after the Lease date, with the
requirements of any board of fire underwriters or other similar body constituted
now or after the date, with any direction or occupancy certificate issued
pursuant to any law by any public officer or officers, as well as with the
provisions of all recorded documents affecting the premises, insofar as they
relate to the condition, use, or occupancy of the premises, excluding
requirements of structural changes to the premises or the building, unless
required by the unique nature of TENANT'S use or occupancy of the premises.

24.2 Hazardous Materials.

        24.2.1 For purposes of this Lease, "hazardous materials" means any
explosives, radioactive materials, hazardous wastes, or hazardous substances,
including without limitation substances defined as "hazardous substances" in the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. ## 9601-9657; the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act of
1975, 49 U.S.C. ## 1801-1812; the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of

law, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, order, or decree regulating, relating
to, or imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning hazardous
materials, waste, or substances now or at any time hereafter in effect
(collectively, "hazardous materials laws").

        24.2.2 Except in compliance with hazardous waste laws, TENANT will not

enforcement, cleanup, remedial, removal, or other governmental or regulatory
actions instituted, completed, or threatened pursuant to any hazardous materials
laws relating to any hazardous materials affecting the premises; and (2) all
claims made or threatened by any third party against TENANT, LANDLORD, or the

injury resulting from any hazardous materials on or about the premises. Without
LANDLORD'S prior written consent, TENANT will not take any remedial action or
enter into any agreements or settlements in response to the presence of any
hazardous materials in, on, or about the premises.

        24.2.3 TENANT will be solely responsible for and will defend, indemnify
and hold LANDLORD, its agents, and employees harmless from and against all
claims, costs, and liabilities, including attorneys' fees and costs, arising out
of or in connection with TENANT'S breach of its obligations in this Section 24.
TENANT will be solely responsible for and will defend, indemnify, and hold
LANDLORD, its agents, and employees harmless from and against any and all
claims, costs, and liabilities, including attorneys' fees and costs, arising out
of or in connection with the removal, cleanup, and restoration work and
materials necessary to return the premises and any other property of whatever
nature located on the project to their condition existing prior to the
appearance of TENANT'S hazardous materials on the premises. TENANT'S obligations
under this Section 24 will survive the expiration or other termination of this
Lease.

        24.2.4 LANDLORD shall indemnify and hold harmless TENANT from liability
for any hazardous materials on the Property or Premises provided hazardous
materials were not caused by actions of TENANT, TENANT'S employees, or TENANT'S
contractor.

        24.3 Certain Insurance Risks. TENANT will not do or permit to be done
any act or thing upon the premises or the project which would (a) jeopardize or
be in conflict with fire insurance policies covering the project and fixtures
and property in the project; (b) increase the rate of fire insurance applicable
to the project to an amount higher than it otherwise would be for general office
use of the project; or (c) subject LANDLORD to any liability or responsibility
for injury to any person or persons or to property by reason of any business or
operation being carried on upon the premises.

        25. LANDLORD'S RESERVED RIGHTS. Without liability to TENANT (except for
damages caused by the reckless or willful misconduct of LANDLORD or its agents),
LANDLORD shall have the right at any time or from time to time (a) upon at least
twenty (20) days prior notice to TENANT, change the name or street address of
the Building; (b) without notice, install and maintain signs on the exterior of
the Building; (c) upon notice to TENANT, enter the Premises and perform any
obligation of TENANT hereunder which TENANT has failed to perform
satisfactorily; (d) without notice, make changes, alterations and additions to
the Building or the Property; (e) exhibit the Premises to prospective tenants,
mortgagees and purchasers upon reasonable notice and so long as no unreasonable
interference with TENANT'S business; and (f) without notice, enter into the
Premises to take such measures as LANDLORD may deem advisable for the safety,
security and welfare of the Building and its occupants and for such purposes, to
bring into and through the Premises or any part of the Building, all required
tools, equipment and materials and to temporarily suspend the use of doors,
corridors or other facilities of the Building.

        25.1 General. At its sole cost and expense, LANDLORD will promptly
comply with all applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, and governmental rules,
regulations, or requirements now in force or in force as a result of the
building occupancy certificate issued pursuant to any law by any public officer
or officers, as well as with the provisions of all recorded documents affecting
the building insofar as they relate to the condition, use, or occupancy of the
building and including all applicable environmental laws relative to the use
and/or storage of hazardous materials.

        26. RULES AND REGULATIONS. The Rules and Regulations set forth in
Exhibit "F" are hereby made a part of this Lease. LANDLORD may from time to time
amend, modify, delete or add rules and regulations for the use and care of the
Building and the Land, provided that changes in the Rules and Regulations are
provided to TENANT in writing and shall not unreasonably affect TENANT and
provided that such changes are uniformly applicable to and enforced against all
tenants. Such amendment, modification, deletion or addition shall be effective
upon notice thereof to TENANT from LANDLORD. TENANT will cause its employees,
agents or any other persons permitted by TENANT to occupy or enter the Premises
to at all times abide by all of such Rules and Regulations. In the event of any
breach of any of such Rules or Regulations, LANDLORD may exercise any or all of
the remedies in this Lease which are provided for in the event of default by
TENANT and may, in addition, exercise any remedies available at law or in equity
including the right to enjoin any breach of such Rules and Regulations. No act
performed by LANDLORD or its agents during the term of the Lease to enforce such
Rules and Regulations shall constitute an eviction of TENANT by LANDLORD, nor
shall it be deemed an acceptance or surrender of the Premises. LANDLORD shall
not be responsible to TENANT for the failure by any other tenant or person to
observe any such Rules and Regulations.

27. MISCELLANEOUS PROVIS IONS.

        27.1 No Partnership. LANDLORD does not by this Lease, in any way or for
any purpose, become a partner or joint venturer of TENANT in the conduct of its
business or otherwise.

        27.2 Force Majeure. LANDLORD shall be excused for the period of any
delay in the performance of any obligations hereunder when prevented from so
doing by cause or causes beyond LANDLORD'S control, including labor disputes,
civil commotion, war, governmental regulations or controls, fire or other
casualty, inability to obtain any material or service or acts of God.

27.3 Section Deleted.

        27.4 No Light Air or View Easement. Any diminution or shutting off of
light, air or view by any structure which may be erected on lands adjacent to or
in the vicinity of the Building shall in no way affect this Lease or impose any
liability on LANDLORD.

        27.5 Holding Over. Because unauthorized holding over after the
expiration of the term hereof or of any renewal term will cause substantial
damage to LANDLORD which cannot be estimated at the time of execution of the
Lease, any such holding over shall be construed to be a tenancy from
month-to-month at one and one-half (1/2) times the Basic Monthly Rent plus all
other sums, rents and charges herein specified (pro-rated on a monthly basis)
and shall, so far as possible, otherwise be on the terms herein specified. The
preceding sentence shall not be construed as LANDLORD's permission for TENANT to
LANDLORD.

        27.6 Notices. Any notice, request, demand, consent, approval, or other
communication required or permitted under this lease must be in writing and will
be deemed to have been given when personally delivered, sent by facsimile with
receipt acknowledged, deposited with any nationally recognized overnight carrier
that routinely issues receipts, or deposited in any depository regularly
maintained by the United States Postal Service, postage prepaid, certified mail,
return receipt requested, addressed to the party for whom it is intended. Notice
for LANDLORD shall be addressed and sent to 106TH SOUTH BUSINESS PARK, L.P.,
Attention: Dan Christensen, 10421 South Jordan Gateway, Suite 600, South Jordan,
Utah 84095; The address for TENANT set forth in Section I, Subsection 1.1 of
this Lease shall be the effective location for notices to TENANT.

27.7 Captions: Attachments.

        27.7.1 The captions to the Sections and Subsections of this Lease are
for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed relevant in resolving
questions of construction or interpretation under this Lease.

        27.7.2 Exhibits referred to in this Lease and any addendum, riders and
schedules attached to this Lease shall be deemed to be incorporated in this
Lease as though a part of Lease.

        27.8 Recording. TENANT shall not record this Lease or a memorandum
hereof without the written consent of LANDLORD. LANDLORD, at its option and at
any time, may file this Lease or a memorandum hereof for record with the
Recorder of the County in which the Property is located, and LANDLORD shall
notify TENANT of the same.

        27.9 Partial Invalidity. If any provision of this Lease or the
application thereof to any person or circumstance shall to any extent be
invalid, the remainder of this Lease or the application of such provision to
persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid shall
not be affected thereby and each provision of this Lease shall be valid and
enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. In lieu of each provision of
this lease that is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable a provision will be added
as a part of this lease as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or
unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable.

        27.10 Brokers Commission. Brandon Fugal of Coldwell Banker Commercial as
agent for LANDLORD and TENANT shall be entitled to a Lease commission equal to
5% of the Lease amount. Lease commission shall be calculated as follows: initial
annual Lease payment times 5 (lease years) times 5% = commission. This amount
will be paid by LANDLORD, t/~ upon execution by LANDLORD and TENANT to Lease
agreement and 1/2 within ten (10) days of TENANT occupying the Premises. It is
understood that TENANT has no responsibility for payment of Leasing commission.

        27.11 TENANT Defined; Use of Pronouns. The word TENANT shall be deemed
to mean each and every person or party executing this document as a TENANT
hereunder. If there is more than one person or organization set forth on the
signature line as TENANT, their liability hereunder shall be joint and several.
If there is more than one TENANT, any notice required or permitted by the terms
of this Lease may be given by or to any one TENANT, and shall have the same
force and effect as if given by or to all TENANTS. The use of the neuter
singular pronoun to refer to LANDLORD or TENANT shall be deemed a proper
reference even though LANDLORD or TENANT may be an individual, partnership,
corporation or a group of two or more individuals, partnerships or corporations.
The necessary grammatical changes required to make the provisions of this Lease
apply in the plural sense where there is more than one LANDLORD or TENANT and to
corporations, associations, partnerships, individuals, males or females, shall
in all instances be assumed as though in each case fully expressed.

        27.12 Provisions Binding, etc. Except as otherwise provided, all
provisions herein shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the
parties, their legal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns. Each
provision to be performed by TENANT shall be constructed to be both a covenant
and a condition, and if there shall be more than one TENANT, they shall all be
bound, jointly and severally, by such provisions. In the event of any sale or
assignment (except for purposes of security or collateral) by LANDLORD of the
Building, the Premises or this Lease, LANDLORD shall, from and after the Actual
Commencement Date (irrespective of when such sale

<PAGE>   22

or assignment occurs), be entirely relieved of all of its obligations hereunder
and such obligations shall, as of the time of such sale or assignment or on the
Actual Commencement Date, whichever is later, automatically pass to LANDLORD'S
successor in

        27.13 Entire Agreement, etc. This Lease and the Exhibits, Riders and/or
addenda, if any, attached hereto, constitute the entire agreement between the
parties. Any guaranty attached hereto is an integral part of this Lease and
constitutes consideration given to LANDLORD to enter into this Lease. Any prior
conversations or writings are merged herein and extinguished. No subsequent
amendment of this Lease shall be binding upon LANDLORD or TENANT unless reduced
to writing and signed. Submission of this Lease for examination does not
constitute an option for the Premises and this Lease becomes effective as a
Lease only upon execution and delivery thereof by LANDLORD to TENANT. It is
hereby agreed that this Lease contains no restrictive covenants or exclusions in
favor of TENANT.

        27.14 Recourse by TENANT. Anything in this Lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, TENANT agrees that it shall look solely to the equity of
LANDLORD in the Building in which the Premises are located and the Land upon
which the Building is situated, subject to prior rights of any mortgagee
(including mortgagees, advancing monies after the date of this Lease), for the
collection of any judgment (or other judicial process) requiring the payment of
money by LANDLORD in the event of any default or breach by LANDLORD with respect
to any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be observed
and/or performed by LANDLORD, and no other assets of LANDLORD shall be subject
to levy, execution or other procedures for the satisfaction of TENANT'S
remedies. Nothing herein shall preclude TENANT from seeking injunctive relief or
specific performance or insurance proceeds to which they are entitled. The
amount of any judgement obtained by TENANT against LANDLORD can be used by
TENANT as an offset against unpaid rent.

        27.15 Choice of Law. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Utah.

        27.16 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease.

        27.17 No Waiver. The waiver by LANDLORD of any agreement, condition, or
provision contained in this Lease will not be deemed to be a waiver of any
subsequent breach of the same or any other agreement, condition, or provision
contained in this Lease, nor will any custom or practice that may grow up
between the parties in the administration of the terms of this Lease be
construed to waive or to lessen the right of LANDLORD to insist upon the
performance by TENANT in strict accordance with the terms of this Lease. The
subsequent acceptance of rent by LANDLORD will not be deemed to be a waiver of
any preceding breach by TENANT of any agreement, condition, or provision of this
Lease, other than the failure of TENANT to pay the particular rent so accepted,
regardless of LANDLORD'S knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of
acceptance of such rent.

        27.18 Rights and Remedies. The rights and remedies of LANDLORD shall not
be mutually exclusive and the exercise of one or more of the provisions of this
Lease shall not preclude the exercise of any other provisions. TENANT confirms
that damages at law may be an inadequate remedy for a breach or threatened
breach by TENANT of any of the provisions hereof. LANDLORD'S rights and TENANT'S
obligations hereunder shall be enforceable by specific performance, injunction
or any other equitable remedy, but nothing herein contained is intended or shall
limit or affect any rights at law or by statute or otherwise of LANDLORD against
TENANT for a breach or a threatened breach of any provision hereof, it being the
intention by this Section to make clear the agreement of the parties hereto and
the right of LANDLORD and obligations of TENANT hereunder shall be enforceable
in equity as well as at law otherwise.

        27.19 Authorization. Each individual executing this Lease does thereby
represent and warrant to each other so signing (and each other entity for which
another person may be signing) that he has been duly authorized to deliver this
Lease in the capacity and for the entity set forth where he signs.

        27.20 No Construction Against Drafting Party. LANDLORD and TENANT
acknowledge that each of them and their counsel have had an opportunity to
review this Lease and that this Lease will not be construed against LANDLORD
merely because LANDLORD has prepared it.

27.21 Section Deleted.

        27.22 No Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by
TENANT or the cancellation of this Lease by mutual agreement of TENANT and
LANDLORD or the termination of this Lease on account of TENANT'S default will
not work a merger, and will, at LANDLORD'S option, (a) terminate all or any
subleases and sub tenancies or (b) operate as an assignment to LANDLORD of all
or any subleases or sub tenancies. LANDLORD'S option under this Section 27.22
will be exercised by written notice to TENANT and all known sub lessees or
subtenants in the premises or any part of the premises.

        27.23 Financial Reports. Within thirty (30) days after LANDLORD'S
request, TENANT will furnish TENANT'S most recent audited financial statements
(including any notes to them) to LANDLORD, or, if no such audited statements
have been prepared, such other financial statements (and notes to them) as may
have been prepared by an independent certified public accountant or, failing
those, TENANT'S internally prepared financial statements. TENANT will discuss
its financial statements with LANDLORD. LANDLORD will not disclose any aspect of
TENANT'S financial statements that TENANT designates to LANDLORD as confidential
except (a) to LANDLORD'S lenders or prospective purchasers of the property, (b)
in litigation between LANDLORD and TENANT, and (c) if required by court order.

<PAGE>   23

        27.24 LANDLORD'S Fees. Whenever TENANT requests LANDLORD to take any
action or give any consent required or permitted under this Lease, which is not
the result of a default by LANDLORD or LANDLORD deficiency in providing services
to TENANT as provided for under the terms of this Lease Agreement, TENANT will
reimburse LANDLORD for all of LANDLORD'S out of pocket costs incurred in
reviewing the proposed action or consent, including without limitation
reasonable attorneys', engineers' or architects' fees, within 10 days after
LANDLORD'S delivery to TENANT of a statement of such costs. TENANT will be
obligated to make such reimbursement without regard to whether LANDLORD consents
to any such proposed action.

        27.25 Attorney's Fees. In the event that at any time during the term of
this Lease either LANDLORD or TENANT institutes any action or proceeding against
the other relating to the provisions of this Lease or any default hereunder, the
unsuccessful party in such action or proceeding shall reimburse the successful
party for the reasonable expenses of such action including reasonable attorneys'
fees incurred therein by the successful party.

        27.26 Successors. LANDLORD shall not be liable to TENANT for any default
or breach under this Lease which occurs after the sale of the Building or
Premises by LANDLORD.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, LANDLORD and TENANT have executed this Lease on the
day first set forth above.
