II.  Terms And Conditions

    

    
      

       

      The
Implementation, Administrative and Trustee Services on the preceding pages are
contingent upon the following terms:

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                1.  Required
      Documentation: This Service
      Agreement may only be used in conjunction with the CORPORATEpIan for Retirement
      Executive Plan ("CPR Executive") Model Document and Trust Agreement
      ("Trust Agreement") provided by Fidelity. The Employer may not add to,
      delete from, or modify the Trust Agreement or Service Agreement in any way
      without the written consent of Fidelity.  Fidelity's provision
      of Administrative and trustee services under this Service Agreement shall
      be conditioned on the Employer delivering to the Trustee a copy of the
      executed CPR Executive Adoption Agreement as soon as administratively
      feasible following the Plan's adoption and any amendments in advance of
      the adoption of such amendments to enable Fidelity to assess recordkeeping
      impact. The Employer acknowledges that the Plan is being recordkept as an
      unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation plan and that the Employer
      has filed for, or will file for, a 'top  hat' letter from the
      DOL pursuant to Labor Reg. Section 2520.104-23 and represents that the
      Plan is exempt from the reporting and disclosure requirements as described
      therein. The CPR Executive Plan Model Document has not been approved by
      the Department of Labor, the Internal Revenue Service or any other
      governmental entity. An adopting Employer must determine whether the plan
      is subject to the Federal securities laws and the securities laws of the
      various states. An adopting Employer may not rely on the CPR Executive
      Plan documents to ensure any particular tax consequences or to ensure that
      the Plan is "unfunded and maintained primarily for the purpose of
      providing deferred compensation to a select group of management or highly
      compensated employees" under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
      with respect to the Employer's particular situation. Fidelity Management
      Trust Company, its affiliates and employees cannot provide you with legal
      advice or tax advice in connection with the execution of any of the CPR
      Executive Plan documents. This document does not constitute legal or tax
      advice and is not intended or written to be used, and it cannot be used by
      any taxpayer, for the purposes of avoiding penalties that may be imposed
      on the taxpayer. The CPR Executive Plan Model Document must be reviewed by
      the Employer's attorney prior to
execution.

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                2.   Data
      Submission: The Employer or
      Administrator will provide Fidelity on a timely basis with accurate and
      complete data via PSW or other method requested by Fidelity. As of the
      Original Implementation Date, the Employer or Administrator must send
      Fidelity the following required data for each new or existing Participant:
      name, address, employment dates, employment status, status under the Plan
      as a Specified Employee (if applicable), and initial investment elections.
      After the Original Implementation Date, the Employer or Administrator may
      only send Fidelity the aforementioned information for a new Participant or
      changes to the name, address, employment dates, employment status, or
      status as a Specified Employee for an existing Participant.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, Fidelity may require additional data for
      the recordkeeping of the Plan and will inform the Employer of the needed
      information and the method of transmission of such data. The Employer is
      responsible for designation of Specified Employees and the interpretation
      of and compliance with any alternative method utilized pursuant to the
      regulations promulgated under Code Section 409A. Fidelity will not be
      responsible for any losses and/or expenses that arise due to the
      submission of incorrect or incomplete data, or data transmitted to
      Fidelity in an improper
format.

                3.   Services: Fidelity will have
      the responsibility to perform only the services set forth in Articles I
      and  II and the attached Appendices of this Agreement, effective
      as of the Original Implementation Date. All other functions, including
      distributions to plan participants and any and all required tax reporting
      or withholding, except to the extent Fidelity has approved performing a
      distribution service as described in the Distribution Appendix, shall be
      the responsibility of the Employer and the Administrator. The Employer
      acknowledges that Fidelity does not provide legal or tax advice, and that
      the Employer must obtain its own legal and tax counsel for advice on the
      plan design appropriate for its specific situation and on legal and tax
      issues pertaining to the administration of the Plan. The Employer further
      acknowledges that Fidelity has no continuing responsibility to be aware of
      and responsive to IRS guidance provided under Section 409A of the Code as
      Fidelity is not the responsible party for (a) ensuring that the Employer's
      direction to Fidelity conforms with that guidance, and (b) for the payment
      of all taxes and penalties associated with a failure to maintain such
      compliance.

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                4.   Conversion
      Method/Transition.Period: An existing
      Employer plan converting to Fidelity shall be subject to a transition
      period to facilitate the movement of Participant records and assets from
      the prior recordkeeper and/or trustee to Fidelity. The responsibilities of
      the parties, the procedures for the conversion, and the duration of the
      transition period are dependent upon the conversion method(s) selected by
      the Employer in the separate Conversion Strategy Agreement and are subject
      to the conditions and limitations contained therein. Upon conversion,
      until amounts are reconciled by Fidelity and posted to Participant
      accounts, contributions will not be considered to be accepted by
      the  Plan recordkeeper in accordance with Article 5 of the
      Plan.

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                5.  Investments: Fidelity shall
      have no discretion or authority with respect to the investment of the
      Trust assets but shall act solely as a directed trustee of the contributed
      funds. All Trust assets must be invested in the Permissible Investments
      elected by the Employer and identified in the Investment Schedule and
      Services Appendix and are subject to the terms and conditions contained
      therein.

              

      

    

    
      

       

          Forfeitures
held within the Trust prior to application and contributions received by
Fidelity as to which investment instructions have not been provided shall be
invested in the Permissible Investment selected by the Employer for such
purposes in the Investment Schedule and Services Appendix until investment
instructions have been received by Fidelity.

    

    
      

       

          Delivery of
amended prospectuses, mutual fund proxies, annual reports, and semi-annual
reports for Permissible Investments shall be made only to the Investment
Literature Contact designated in Article II.

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                6.   Participant
      Investment Direction: Except as provided
      in Section 7 of this Article II, the Trustee is directed to invest and
      reinvest such funds in a manner which corresponds directly to elections
      made by Participants. Each Participant in the Plan shall submit his/her
      initial investment elections as provided in the Enrollment and Education
      Appendix. Thereafter, all subsequent investment elections for existing
      Participants may only be directed in accordance with this
      Section.

              

      

    

    
      

       

          After his/her
initial investment election, each Participant in the Plan shall be permitted to
direct the investment of his/her individual account balance and investment of
future contributions among the Permissible Investments as provided in, and
subject to the provisions of, the Investment Schedule and Services Appendix to
this Agreement through the use of Fidelity's telephone exchange system or an
internet or other electronically based exchange system. The Employer hereby
directs Fidelity to act upon such instructions without questioning the
authenticity of such direction.

          The number of
exchanges from a Participant's existing account balance will be governed by the
mutual fund prospectus or other governing document for that investment, unless
indicated otherwise in the Investment Schedule and Services Appendix or the
Miscellaneous Appendix. Fidelity reserves the right to modify or withdraw the
exchange privilege in the future. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, including any Appendices, a proper exchange request received by
Fidelity prior to the closing of the New York Stock Exchange shall be effective
on that day.

    

    
      

          A Participant
shall be required to provide personal identification information prior to being
given access to his/her accounts. For security purposes, upon proper notice to
Fidelity, the Employer may direct that a Participant using the telephone
exchange system be required to respond to additional questions (e.g., date of
birth, date of hire) before being able to access his/her accounts. Only
authorized Plan contact(s) and the Participant shall have access to a
Participant's account.

    

    
      

          Subject to
the terms of the Enrollment and Education Services Appendix, a Participant may
not change his/her address through a telephone or internet exchange system. All
such changes must be submitted to the Employer. The Employer shall then send
such changes to Fidelity in the required format.

    

    
       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                7.   Employer
      Investment Direction: To the extent that
      the Employer has provided in the Plan for Employer investment direction,
      then Participant accounts must be invested in Permissible
      Investments    as provided in, and subject to the
      provisions of, the Investment Schedule and Services Appendix to this
      Agreement. A Participant will not be allowed to make any changes to
      investments directed by the Employer pursuant to this
    Section.

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                8.   Fees: As
      consideration for its services under this Agreement, Fidelity shall be
      entitled to the fees in accordance with Articles I and II and any
      Appendices or amendments to this Agreement. A reasonable additional fee
      will be charged if Fidelity has to reprocess any contribution data
      transmission due to excessive errors of the Employer or payroll vendor,
      not to exceed $100.00 per hour. The Employer will be notified by Fidelity
      prior to incurring these charges. Fidelity shall be entitled to reasonable
      compensation for its extraordinary costs and expenses incurred in the
      event of termination of this Agreement. 'Extraordinary costs and expenses'
      are those that Fidelity does not normally incur in the termination of
      relationships between itself and employers. Such extraordinary costs and
      expenses will be agreed upon by the Employer and Fidelity before Fidelity
      incurs them and before Fidelity charges the Employer for them. In
      addition, Fidelity reserves the right to charge a termination fee equal to
      a full year of fees identified under Articles 1 and II in the event the
      Employer terminates its relationship with Fidelity within one year after
      the Implementation Date.

              

      

    

    
      

       

          The
implementation Set Up Fee in Article I will be billed during the implementation
process. The administrative fees in Article II will originally become effective
as of the later of the Plan's Effective Date in Section 1.01(b)(l) of the
Adoption Agreement or the Original Implementation Date. These fees shall be
billed in arrears to the Employer quarterly.

    

    
      

         If
payment of the aforementioned fees is not received by Fidelity within sixty days
of receipt of Fidelity's quarterly invoice, then the fees shall be paid from
Plan forfeitures.

      electronic order from the Employer or upon any other notice, request,
      consent, certificate, or other instructions or paper reasonably believed
      by it to have been executed by a duly authorized person, so long as it
      acts in good faith in taking or omitting to take any such action. Fidelity
      need not inquire as to the basis in fact of any statement in writing
      received from the Employer. Fidelity shall be entitled to rely upon the

      company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,

      specified in an agreement between Fidelity and the transfer agent for such
      investment company ('Fund

                b.   The
      basis-point-per-annum fee charged by Fidelity shall be computed and billed
      or charged in arrears quarterly based on the market value of Non-Fidelity
      Funds held in Participant Accounts on the last business day of the
      quarter. In addition to the fees specified above, Fidelity shall be
      entitled to fees from the Fund Vendor as set forth in a separate agency
      agreement with the Fund Vendor. Fidelity will make available appropriate
      information concerning the current provisions of such agreements
      electronically (currently through Plan Sponsor WebStation) for the
      Employer's review.

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                c.   The
      Fund Vendor shall prepare and provide descriptive information on the funds
      for use by Fidelity in its written participant communication materials.
      Fidelity shall utilize historical performance data obtained from
      third-party vendors in communications with plan participants. The Employer
      hereby consents to Fidelity's use of such materials and acknowledges that
      Fidelity is not responsible for the accuracy of such third-party

      a.    Fidelity may from
time to time produce communication materials and/or forms that the Employer may
use regarding the Plan. The Employer is responsible for reviewing such materials
and forms and ensuring that such materials and forms as provided by Fidelity are
complete and accurate descriptions of the terms and provisions of the Employer's
Plan. To the extent such materials and forms are incomplete or inaccurate; the

      b.    Participants
will receive account statements in the following manner:

    

    
             Fidelity will mail

World Wide Web Internet service, or any other service subsequently employed by
Fidelity to facilitate electronic plan administration) that they desire to
receive statements only through Automated Channels.

    

    
      

       

             Notwithstanding any
of the above, a Participant will always have the ability to request a written
statement at least as frequently as legally required.

    

    
      

      c.    Notwithstanding

        b.   Fidelity
hereby agrees to track specific contribution years (Class-Year Accounting) in
which contributions paid to the Trust will be distributed to the Participants,
as provided in the Accounting Appendix, and the distribution elections made by
Participants at the time the deferral election has been made. Participants will
only be able to make one distribution election per contribution type per year.

      DISTRIBUTION
PROCESSING APPENDIX

    

    
      

       

      Fidelity
shall provide distribution processing services pursuant to Article 1 as outlined
in this Appendix and subject to the terms and conditions contained
herein.

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                1.   All
      withdrawals will be made pro rata across all funds and applicable sources.
      If directing Fidelity to distribute forfeitures to the Employer, the
      Employer must give separate written direction for each such distribution
      and cannot take more than one such distribution per calendar
      year.

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                2.   The
      Employer agrees that distribution options for Participants will be
      maintained on Fidelity's electronic systems. Annual distribution elections
      for contributions to the Trust attributable to the following calendar year
      will be made in accordance with the Enrollment and Education and
      Accounting Appendices.

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                3.   The
      vested percentage on Fidelity's Participant Recordkeeping System (FPRS)
      shall be used to process the distribution. Vesting for sources determined
      on the class year will utilize the Class Year Begin Date from the table
      found in Section 6 of the Contribution Appendix as the first day of each
      such class year. Distributions will only be processed if there is
      complete, accurate and properly authorized data received by Fidelity in
      the required media. The Employer is responsible for ensuring that the
      proper vested percentage for each Participant is always maintained on FPRS
      and giving Fidelity any separate direction to adjust such percentage in a
      timely manner (e.g., prior to a scheduled distribution for a Participant
      required by the Plan to forfeit all Employer
    contributions).

              

      

    

    
      

       

          The Employer
is responsible for updating the status codes, applicable dates, and other
appropriate information for participants via Plan Sponsor Webstation (PSW), or
other agreed upon transmission. The Employer must give separate direction to
Fidelity not later than the close of the Business Day prior to the Plan's next
processing date in the manner requested by Fidelity for each distribution. In
the event that the Employer desires to accelerate a Participant's distribution
due to its amount pursuant to the Regulations promulgated under Code Section
409A, the Employer understands and agrees that Fidelity will only make such
distributions as a result of an event resulting in a separation from service and
that the Employer will give Fidelity notice, in the manner requested by
Fidelity, at least 6 days prior to processing date desired for such a
distribution. The Employer understands and agrees that it must supply all
information Fidelity determines necessary to process any given distribution
before processing will begin.

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                4.   Fidelity
      shall disburse monies directly to Participants or, in the case of a
      deceased Participant, to the designated beneficiary or beneficiaries, for
      the payment of benefits under the Plan in amounts as the Administrator
      directs. Distributions for benefit payments will be processed once a month
      on the day of the month specified within, and in accordance with the
      terms, of the Plan. Fidelity shall not be responsible for the calculation,
      withholding or reporting of any PICA, FUTA, Social Security, Medicare,
      State unemployment, or local income taxes with respect to Plan
      distributions. Fidelity shall be responsible for any Federal or State
      income tax reporting or withholding with respect to such Plan
      distributions to Participants and beneficiaries receiving such payments.
      Withholding will always be based upon the data received by Fidelity and is
      final and irreversible when the distribution has been processed. The
      Federal withholding amount shall be determined
  by:

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                x    Using
      the current year Federal withholding tables and Form W-4 elections
      provided to Fidelity in the manner
      requested by Fidelity.

              

      

    

     

    
      
        	
                 
      

              	
                   Using
      the currently applicable flat rate for supplemental wages (Employer
      considers distributions supplemental wages as described in IRS
      publications).

Supplemental Wage Balance (Option 1)

    

    
      

       

          For each
employee, the Employer shall provide to Fidelity the data value known as
"Aggregate Supplemental Wage Balance" (ASWB) representing the sum of all
supplemental wage payments made to the employee directly by the Employer, or a
member of the Employer's control group, or made by an agent acting on behalf of
the Employer, or a member of the Employer's control group during a given
calendar year. This information will be delivered no more frequently than daily
and will contain data that has changed since the last reporting, in other words
a ''Changes Only" file.

    

    
       

          Fidelity
shall rely upon and use the most recently received ASWB reasonably available
prior to the calculation of taxes, for purposes of determining when the
aggregate amount of supplemental wage payments made to an employee crosses the
SI million threshold, thereby triggering mandatory withholding at the applicable
flat supplemental rate (35% for 2007).

    

    
      

          Until such
time that the Employer is able to provide this data in the manner prescribed by
Fidelity, the Employer hereby acknowledges and understands that Fidelity shall
utilize the data value for each employee known as "Fidelity Supplemental Wage
Balance" (FSWB) representing the sum of all supplemental wage payments disbursed
by Fidelity's defined contribution systems as an agent of the Employer, to the
employee during a given calendar year. Fidelity shall rely upon the FSWB to
determine when an employee crosses the $1 million threshold based on the
aggregate amount of supplemental wage payments processed by Fidelity, thereby
triggering mandatory withholding at the applicable flat supplemental rate (35%
for 2007).

    

    
      

      x   Fidelity Supplemental Wage Balance
(Option 2)

    

    
      

       

          Fidelity is
directed to utilize the data value for each employee known as the FSWB
representing the sum of all supplemental wage payments disbursed by Fidelity's
defined contribution systems, as an agent of the Employer, to the employee
during a given calendar year. Fidelity shall rely upon the FSWB to determine
when an employee crosses the SI million threshold based on the aggregate amount
of supplemental wage payments processed by Fidelity, thereby triggering
mandatory withholding at the applicable flat supplemental rate (35% for
2007).

    

    
      

          The Employer
represents and warrants that the FSWB contains all supplemental wage payments
made to the individual by or on behalf of the Employer or a member of the
Employer's control group in that calendar year.

    

    
       

       

      □        No
Aggregation (Option 3)

    

    
      

          The Employer
hereby certifies and warrants that the sum of supplemental wage payments made to
Plan Participants will not exceed $ I million during the calendar year or that
the Employer and the Employer's control group will only make supplemental wage
payments to Plan Participants through the Plan. Fidelity is directed not to
establish a method of aggregating supplemental wages.

State of the residence of the Plan Participant or Beneficiary receiving the
distribution. The Employer is required to provide Fidelity with tax basis
information for Plan accruals for which Pennsylvania (or any other state due to
a change in that state's law) state income tax was paid upon accrual of the
amount in the manner requested by Fidelity.

      and Employer contributions to the Plan and transmitting such contributions
      and associated contribution data to Fidelity. The Employer is responsible
      for providing source and class year identifying information when
      transferring contribution information. If the Employer desires to use a
      Participant's interest in the Plan to pay that Participant's employment
      taxes due on vested accruals under the Plan, the Employer shall accomplish
      such payments by reducing contributions to the Trust and shall be solely
      responsible for all tax reporting consequences of that reduction. The
      Employer shall also be solely responsible for monitoring and implementing
      any cessation of contributions to the Trust (and accruals under the Plan)
      due to the funding level of a defined benefit plan as required by federal
      law or 1RS guidance.

                3.   Following
      the receipt of contribution data in good order (as determined by
      Fidelity), the Employer shall either initiate a wire transfer or allow
      Fidelity, through any of its affiliates, to request an electronic funds
      transfer through Automated Clearing House ("'ACH") to fund the
      contribution amount. Contributions received in good order will be credited
      to Participants' accounts on the day they are received, if received prior
      to the close of the Business Day. Before the Employer may fund through
      ACH, the Employer must have completed a valid Service Setup
      Form.

      section 3 contained herein, Fidelity reserves the right to require the
      Employer to wire transfer any contribution. Unsolicited or improperly
      formatted transfers will not be invested until properly identified and
      reconciled.

      the event that Fidelity, or any of its affiliates, provides tools or
      services to assist the Employer with the calculation of the Matching
      Employer and/or Employer Contributions, Fidelity does not represent,
      warrant, guarantee or certify that such calculations are accurate. The
      Employer agrees that Fidelity has no responsibility for any such
      calculations.

                (a)
      Superseding Provision(s) - The following provisions supersede other
      provisions of this Adoption Agreement and/or the Basic Plan Document as
      described below:

              

      

    

    
      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                1.     Notwithstanding
      Section 1.07(d) and Article 8, with respect to post-2004 deferrals that
      are subject to Code section 409A, if a Participant elects to receive
      payment of his deferrals for one or more Plan years in the form of
      installments, the same number of installments must be elected for each
      Plan year. Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 2(d) of this
      Attachment B (with respect to the 2005 through 2008 Plan years), any
      attempt by a Participant to elect a different number of installments for a
      subsequent Plan year will be disregarded and the number of installments
      previously elected will continue to apply. By way of example, if a
      Participant had previously elected to receive distribution of his 2009
      deferrals in the form of five annual installments and attempts to elect to
      receive his 2010 deferrals in three annual installments, then
      notwithstanding such election, his 2010 deferrals will also be paid in
      five annual installments.

              

      

    

    
       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                2.      Notwithstanding
      Section l.07(b)(2) and Article 8, in accordance with the Code section 409A
      transition relief provided under Section 3.02 of Internal Revenue Service
      Notice 2007-86, a Participant may make a one-time election after the
      Adoption Agreement effective date and no later than December 31, 2008 to
      change the form (but not the timing) of distributions of benefits accrued
      under the Plan during the 2005 through 2008 Plan years that are subject to
      Code section 409A. Such election shall not be subject to Section 8.0 l(b)
      of the Plan, but shall be subject to the following restrictions and
      limitations:

                 

              

      

    

    
      
        	
                 
      

              	
                (a)    Such
      election may apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable in
      2008 and may not cause an amount to be paid in 2008 that would not
      otherwise be payable in 2008.

                 

              

      

    

    
      
        	
                 

              	
                

                  (b)   A
      Participant may elect to change the form of payment from a lump sum to
      installments, or from installments to a lump sum, but only if such change
      applies evenly to all benefits accrued prior to January 1, 2009 that are
      subject to Code section 409A. By way of example, if a Participant had
      previously elected to receive distribution in the form of a lump sum for
      his 2005, 2006 and 2007 deferrals and installments for his and 2008
      deferrals, he may elect to change his 2007 deferrals from a lump sum to
      installments only if he also changes his 2005 and 2006 deferrals to
      installments.

                   

                

              

      

    

    
      
        	
                 
      

              	
                (c)    A
      Participant may elect to change the number of annual installments for all
      years between 2005 through 2008, inclusive, for which he elected
      installments without changing or affecting his previous lump sum
      elections. By way of example, if a Participant had previously elected to
      receive distribution in the form of a lump sum for his 2005 and 2006
      deferrals and five annual installments for his 2007 and 2008 installments,
      the Participant may elect to change the number of installment for his 2007
      and 2008 deferrals from five to three and not have to change his 2005 and
      2006 deferrals from lump sum to
installments.

      installments are elected for any year, the same number of installments
      must be elected for all years for which installments are payable. If a
      different number of installments was previously elected for one or more
      years and the Participant fails to elect a uniform number of installments
      by December 31, 2008, the number of installments that will apply shall be
      the last number elected by the Participant. By way of example, if a
      Participant had previously elected to receive distribution in the form of
      a lump sum for his 2005 deferrals, five annual installments for his 2006
      deferral, three annual installments for his 2007 deferrals and 10 annual
      installments for his 2008 deferrals, the Partic    ipant must
      elect no later than December 31, 2008 to change the number of installments
      for his 2006 through 2008 deferrals to a uniform number (which may be any
      number between two and 10). If no election is made, the number of
      installments that would apply in this example would be 10, because that
      was the last number elected by the Participant. Accordingly, for this
      Participant, his 2005 deferral would continue to be paid in the form of a
      lump sum, but his 2006 through 2008 deferrals would be paid in 10 annual
      installments (as would all future deferrals for which the form of payment
      elected is installments).

                   

                

              

      

    

    
      
        	
                3.

              	
                If
      the Participant dies before an elected payment date, the participant shall
      be considered to have Separated from Service and the Participant's benefit
      will be paid to the participant's Beneficiary commencing pursuant to
      Section 1.07(c)(l) in the same form as it would have been paid to the
      Participant pursuant to Article
8.

and (b) above, the maintenance of accounts for each Participant under the Plan
and the crediting of investments to such accounts, and the exercise by
Participants of any powers relating to investments under this Section 5 are

or beneficial ownership interest in any asset or investment held in the Trust,
and the rights of any Participant and his or her beneficiaries under the Plan
and the Agreement are solely those of an unsecured general creditor of the
Sponsor with respect to the benefits of the Participant under the
Plan.

             (i) Execution of Purchases and
Sales. Purchases and sales of Permissible Investments (other than for
Exchanges) shall be made on the date on which the Trustee receives from the
Sponsor in good order all information and documentation necessary to accurately
effect such purchases and sales (or in the case of a purchase, the subsequent
date on which the Trustee has received a wire transfer of funds necessary to
make such purchase). Exchanges of Permissible Investments shall be made on the
same Business Day that the Trustee receives a proper direction if received
before market close (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time); if the direction is
received after market close (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time), the exchange
shall be made the following Business Day.

    

    
      

             (ii) Voting. At the time
of mailing of notice of each annual or special stockholder's meeting of any
Mutual Fund, the Trustee shall send a copy of the notice and ail proxy
solicitation materials to the Sponsor, together with a voting direction form for
return to the Trustee or its designee. The Trustee shall vote the shares held in
the Trust in the manner as directed by the Sponsor. The Trustee shall not vote
shares for which it has received no corresponding directions from the Sponsor.
The Sponsor shall also have the right to direct the Trustee as to the manner in
which all shareholder rights, other than the right to vote, shall be exercised.

Sponsor.

Sponsor. Whenever the Sponsor provides a direction to the Trustee, the
Trustee shall not be liable for any loss, or by reason of any breach, arising
from the direction if the direction is contained in a writing (or is oral and
immediately confirmed in a writing) signed by any individual whose name and
signature have been submitted (and not withdrawn) in writing to the Trustee by
the Sponsor in the manner described in the Service Agreement, provided the
Trustee reasonably believes the signature of the individual to be genuine. Such
direction may be made via electronic data transfer ("EDT") in accordance with
procedures agreed to by the Sponsor and the Trustee; provided, however, that the
Trustee shall be fully protected in relying on such direction as if it were a
direction made in writing by the Sponsor. The Trustee shall have no
responsibility to ascertain any direction's (i) accuracy, (ii) compliance with
the terms of the Plan or any applicable law, or (iii) effect for tax purposes or
otherwise.

    

    
      

          (b) Directions from
Participants. The Trustee shall not be liable for any loss resulting from
any Participant's exercise or non-exercise of rights under this Agreement to
direct the investment of the hypothetical assets in the Participant's
accounts.

    

    
      

          (c) Indemnification. The
Sponsor shall indemnify the Trustee against, and hold the Trustee harmless from,
any and all loss, damage, penalty, liability, cost, and expense, including
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, that may be
incurred by, imposed upon, or asserted against the Trustee by reason of any
claim, regulatory proceeding, or litigation arising from any act done or omitted
to be done by any individual or person with respect to the Plan or the Trust,
excepting only any and all loss, etc., arising solely from the Trustee's
negligence or bad faith.

    

    
      

          (d) Survival. The
provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.

Agreement may be terminated at any time by the Sponsor upon prior written notice
to the Trustee in accordance with the notice provisions set forth
below.

    

    
      

          (c) Notice Period. In the
event either party desires to terminate the Agreement or any Services
hereunder, the party shall provide at least sixty-(60) days prior written notice
of the  termination date to the other party; provided, however,
that the receiving party may agree, in writing, to a shorter
notice period.

    

    
      

          (d) Transition
Assistance. In the event of termination of the Agreement, if requested
by Sponsor, the Trustee shall assist Sponsor in developing a plan for the
orderly transition of the Plan data, cash and assets then constituting the
Trustee and recordkeeping services provided by the Trustee hereunder to
Sponsor or its designee. The Trustee shall provide such assistance for a period
not extending beyond sixty (60) days from the termination date of this
Agreement. The Trustee shall provide to Sponsor, or to any person
designated by Sponsor, at a mutually agreeable time, one file of the Plan data
prepared and maintained by the Trustee in the ordinary course of business, in
the Trustee's format. The Trustee may provide other or additional
transition assistance as mutually determined for additional fees, which shall
be due and payable by the Sponsor prior to any termination of the
Agreement.

    

    
      

          (e) Failure to Appoint
Successor. If, by the termination date, the Sponsor has not
notified the Trustee in writing as to the individual or entity to which the
assets and cash are to be transferred and delivered, the Trustee may bring an
appropriate action or proceeding for leave to deposit the assets and cash
in a court of competent jurisdiction. The Trustee shall be reimbursed by the

appoint a successor trustee under this Agreement. The successor trustee shall
have all of the     rights, powers, privileges,
obligations, duties, liabilities, and immunities granted to the Trustee under
the Agreement. After a successor trustee accepts appointment, a prior trustee
shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of the Trustee with respect to the
Trust occurring after the time of the appointment.

    

    
      

          (b) Acceptance. When the
successor trustee accepts its appointment under the Agreement, title to the

requested in writing by the Sponsor or the Trustee to evidence the
vesting    of title to all Trust assets in the Trustee or to

      Section 11. Resignation.
Removal, and Termination Notices. All notices of
resignation, removal, or termination under this Agreement must be in writing and
mailed to the party to which the notice is being given by certified or

designated in     the Service Agreement, and to the
Trustee c/o Fidelity Investments - ECM Client Services Relationship Manager,
P.O. Box 770001, Cincinnati, OH 45277-0026, or to such other addresses as the

      Section 13. Insolvency
of Sponsor.

    

    
      

          (a) Trustee
shall cease disbursement of funds for payment of benefits to Participants
and their beneficiaries if the Sponsor is Insolvent. Sponsor shall be
considered "Insolvent" for purposes of the Agreement if (i) Sponsor is unable to
pay its debts as they become due, or (ii) Sponsor is subject to a pending
proceeding as a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy
Code.

    

    
      

          (b) All times
during the continuance of the Trust, the principal and income of the
Trust shall be subject to claims of general creditors of the Sponsor under
federal and state law as set forth below.

    

    
      

             (i) The Board of
Directors (or other body governing the entity under state law) and the
Chief Executive Officer of the Sponsor shall have the duty to inform the Trustee
in writing of the Sponsor's Insolvency. If a person claiming to be a creditor of
the Sponsor alleges in writing to the Trustee that the Sponsor has become
Insolvent, the Trustee shall determine whether the Sponsor is Insolvent
and pending such determination, the Trustee shall discontinue disbursements
for payment of benefits to Participants or their
beneficiaries.

    

    
      

             (ii) Unless the
Trustee has actual knowledge of the Sponsor's Insolvency, or has received
notice from the Sponsor or a person claiming to be a creditor alleging that the
Sponsor is insolvent, the Trustee shall have no duty to inquire whether the
Sponsor is Insolvent. The Trustee may in all events rely on such evidence
concerning the Sponsor's solvency as may be furnished to the Trustee and that
provides the Trustee with a reasonable basis for making a determination
concerning the Sponsor's solvency.

the Trustee has determined that the Sponsor is Insolvent, the Trustee shall
discontinue disbursements for payments to Participants or their beneficiaries
and shall hold the assets of the Trust for the benefit of the Sponsor's
general creditors. Nothing in this Agreement shall in any way diminish any
rights of Participants or their beneficiaries to pursue their rights as general
creditors of the Sponsor with respect to benefits due under the Plan or
otherwise.

    

    
      

             (iv) Trustee shall

Insolvent).

    

    
      

          (c) If the
Sponsor permits the employees of another member of the same controlled
group           (as
defined in IRC Section 414(b) or (c)) to participate in the Plan, all of the
assets held by the Trust will be subject to the claims of the general creditors
of both the Sponsor and all of such participating affiliates and, for purposes
of Section 13(a), the Sponsor is considered Insolvent if any such affiliate
meets the definition of Insolvent.   

       

          (d) Provided
that there are sufficient assets, if the Trustee discontinues the payment
of        benefits from the Trust
pursuant to Section 13(a) hereof and subsequently resumes such payments, the
first payment following such discontinuance shall include the aggregate amount
of all payments due to Participants or their beneficiaries under the terms of
the Plan for the period of such discontinuance, less the aggregate amount of any
payments made to Participants or their beneficiaries by the Sponsor in lieu of
the payments provided for hereunder during any such period of
discontinuance.

agree to use such Electronic Services and Electronic Products only in the course
of reasonable administration of or participation in the Plan and to keep
confidential and not publish, copy, broadcast, retransmit, reproduce,
commercially exploit or otherwise redisseminate the Electronic Products or
Electronic Services or any portion thereof without the Trustee's written

installation) and for displaying any
and       all content associated with
Electronic Services on its computer network and/or intranet so that such

shall      be clearly identified as originating

Products or Services from its computer network and/or intranet, or replace the
Electronic  Products or Services with updated products or services
provided by the Trustee, upon written notification (including written
notification via facsimile) by the Trustee.

    

    
      

          (c) All
Electronic Products shall be provided to the Sponsor without any express
or implied legal warranties or acceptance of legal liability by the
Trustee, and all Electronic Services shall be provided to the Sponsor without
acceptance of legal liability related to or arising out of the
electronic   nature of the delivery or provision of such
Services. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement,
no    rights are conveyed to any property, intellectual or
tangible, associated with the contents of the Electronic Products or Services
and related material. The Trustee hereby grants to the Sponsor a non-exclusive,
non-transferable revocable right and license to use the Electronic Products and
Services in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
Agreement.

    

    
      

          (d) To the extent
that any Electronic Products or Services utilize Internet services  to
transport data or communications, the Trustee will take, and the Sponsor agrees
to follow, reasonable security precautions, however, the Trustee disclaims any
liability for interception of any such data or communications. The Trustee
reserves the right not to accept data or communications transmitted via
electronic media by the Sponsor or a third party if it determines that the media
does not provide adequate data security, or if it is not administratively
feasible for the Trustee to use the data security provided. The Trustee shall
not be responsible for, and makes no warranties regarding access, speed or
availability of Internet or network services, or any other service required for
electronic communication. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any loss
or damage related to or resulting from any changes or modifications to the
Electronic Products or Services after delivering it to the
Sponsor.

Freedom funds currently available for the Plan. The Employer understands that a
choice can be made at any time to remove all Fidelity Freedom funds as

effective as soon as administratively feasible for Fidelity (after the Employer
and Fidelity have amended this agreement to reflect such change) and that the
Employer will communicate to participants the date and consequences of such
change. The Employer hereby directs Fidelity to add or remove as Permissible
Investments for the Plan any Fidelity Freedom fund being added to or removed
from the group of all Fidelity Freedom funds. Fidelity shall always give the
Employer at least 90 days notice of the date that funds available through the
Freedom Fund group will change and the Employer has until 20 days before such
date to direct Fidelity to remove all Fidelity Freedom funds as Permissible
Investments for the Plan.

      a.

              	
                For
      purposes of this Agreement, 'Non-Fidelity Fund' shall mean an investment
      company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
      other than one advised by Fidelity Management & Research Company, and
      specified in an agreement between Fidelity and the transfer agent for such
      investment company ('Fund

      b. 

              	
                The
      basis-point-per-annum fee charged by Fidelity shall be computed and billed
      or charged in arrears quarterly based on the market value of Non-Fidelity
      Funds held in Participant Accounts on the last business day of the
      quarter. In addition to the fees specified above, Fidelity shall be
      entitled to fees from the Fund Vendor as set forth in a separate agency
      agreement with the Fund Vendor. Fidelity will make available appropriate
      information concerning the current provisions of such agreements
      electronically (currently through Plan Sponsor WebStation) for the
      Employer's review.

      third-party vendors in communications with plan participants. The Employer

      commencing on substantial completion
as defined in Paragraph 7) due on or before the first day of each
calendar month during the term hereof.  Said rental shall be paid in
lawful money of the United States of America, without offset or deduction, and
shall be paid to Landlord at such place or places as may be designated from time
to time by Landlord.  Rent for any period less than a calendar month
shall be a pro rata portion of the monthly installment.

      

      Tenant
shall also pay to Landlord the sum of FIFTY EIGHT THOUSAND NINETY AND 12/100
DOLLARS ($58,090.12) as prepaid rent to be applied against the initial
rent due hereunder.  Promptly after substantial completion, Landlord
shall submit to Tenant for signature by both parties a memorandum commemorating
the commencement and termination dates of the Lease which reflect the date on
which the Tenant Interior Improvements were Substantially
Completed.

      

      5.           SECURITY
DEPOSIT:                                                      Concurrently
with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant has deposited with Landlord the
sum of SIXTY FIVE THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($65,000.00) as a security
deposit.  If Tenant defaults with respect to any provisions of this
lease, including but not limited to the provisions relating to payment of rent
or other charges, Landlord may, to the extent reasonably necessary to remedy
Tenant’s default, use all or any part of said deposit for the payment of rent or
other charges in default or the payment of any other payment of any other amount
which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of
Tenant’s

      default
or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer
by reason of Tenant’s default.  If any portion of said deposit is so
used or applied, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with
Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore said deposit to the full amount
hereinabove stated and shall pay to Landlord such other sums as shall be
necessary to reimburse Landlord for any sums paid by Landlord.  Said
deposit shall be returned to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after the
expiration of the term hereof less any amount deducted in accordance with this
paragraph, together with Landlord’s written notice itemizing the amounts and
purposes for such retention.  In the event of termination of
Landlord’s interest in this lease, Landlord shall transfer said deposit to
Landlord’s successor in interest, provided said successor in interest assumes
Landlord’s obligations under this Lease.

      

      Notwithstanding
the above, Tenant shall additionally provide Landlord with an irrevocable letter
of credit, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, to further secure the
following reimbursement obligations of Tenant:

      

      Prior
to Tenant’s receipt of a legally binding (by opinion of Tenant’s counsel)
financing commitment (“Financing Commitment”) for a minimum amount of SIX
MILLION and NO/100 DOLLARS (6,000,000.00), Tenant shall provide to Landlord a
letter of credit or multiple letters of credit, as the case may be (collectively
"Letters of Credit"), in an aggregate amount, as of the first day of each month
specified in Exhibit “F” attached hereto, which is no less than the

      cumulative
amount of Tenant Improvement expenditures indicated on Exhibit “F” with respect
to said month.  For example, by January 1, 1988, the Letter(s) of
Credit must be in an aggregate amount of no less than One Million Three Hundred
Sixteen Thousand Two Hundred Ninety Eight Dollars ($1,316,298.00), and as of
February 1, 1989, must be in an aggregate amount of no less than Two Million
Four Hundred Thirty Seven Thousand Two Hundred Eighty Eight Dollars
($2,437,288.00).  The Letter(s) of Credit for December,1988 shall be
delivered to Landlord

      promptly
after Lease execution.

      

       Upon
any termination of this Lease as a consequence of a default by Tenant with
respect to any one or more of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall
be entitled to draw upon the Letter(s)
of Credit to the extent necessary to reimburse itself for all monies spent by
Landlord on Tenant Improvements through the date of such
termination.  All such Letter(s) of Credit shall be irrevocable, and
shall be conditioned solely upon Landlord’s certifying to the issuer(s) thereof
that a default exists under this Lease.  Such Letter(s) of Credit
shall be for a minimum term ending on May 1, 1989, and thereafter shall be
periodically renewed by Tenant until such time as the Financing Commitment is
obtained.  If at any point in time, less than sixty (60) days remains
before expiration of the term of any such Letter(s) of Credit, and Tenant has
not yet obtained theFinancing Commitment, then Landlord may draw all or any part
of the Letter(s) of Credit to reimburse itself for all monies spent on Tenant
Improvements through that point in time.  Landlord shall not expend
any additional sums for construction of Tenant Improvements after Landlord is
first entitled under this Paragraph 5 to draw down all or any part of said
Letter(s) of Credit.  Landlord acknowledges that the form of letter of
credit attached as Exhibit “G” is acceptable, and will accept any similar form
of letter of credit in substantially the same form.

       
 

      
        
           

        

        
          ii

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      

        In
the event Tenant receives the Financing commitment, the Letter of Credit shall
be increased or decreased to an amount determined by taking the “Budget”
(defined in paragraph 7) and subtracting the Tenant Interior Improvement
Allowance.  Landlord shall be entitled use all or any part of said
Letter of Credit in the event Tenant defaults in its reimbursement of Landlord
for the costs in excess of the Tenant Interior Improvement Allowance pursuant to
paragraph 7.  Said Letter of Credit shall be reduced as Tenant
reimburses Landlord for such excess Tenant Interior Improvement Costs in
accordance with paragraph 7.

        

        6.           LATE
CHARGES:                                           Tenant
hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent and other
sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this
Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to
ascertain.  Such costs include, but are not limited to,
administrative, processing, accounting charges, and late charges, which may be
imposed on Landlord by the terms of any contract ,revolving credit, mortgage or
trust deed covering the Premises.  Accordingly, if any installment of
rent or any other sum due

        from
Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord’s designee within ten (10)
days after such amount shall be due, and provided Tenant shall have
received from Landlord notice that such sum has not been received by Landlord or
its designee and Tenant fails to pay the same within three (3) days after
receipt of such notice, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal
to five (5%) percent of such overdue amount which shall be due and payable with
the payment then delinquent.   The parties hereby agree that such
late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will
incur by reason of late payment by Tenant.  Acceptance of such late
charge by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default
with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of
the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.  In the event that a
late charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for three (3)
consecutive installments of rent, then rent shall automatically become due and
payable quarterly in advance, rather than monthly, notwithstanding any provision
of this Lease to the contrary.

        

        IT
IS FURTHER MUTUALLY AGREED BETWEEN THE PARTIES AS FOLLOWS:

        

        7.           CONSTRUCTION
AND POSSESSION:                                                                                     The
Tenant Interior Improvements shall be constructed by independent contractors to
be employed by and under the supervision of Landlord, as general contractor, in
accordance with the preliminary plans prepared by Jack Noll and Associates,
attached as Exhibit “B” (“Preliminary Floor Plans”) and Guideline Specifications
attached as Exhibit “C”.  Landlord shall construct the Tenant Interior
Improvements in accordance with the Final Tenant Floor Plans to be a
consistent evolution of Exhibit “B” to be attached as Exhibit
“D”.  The Final Tenant Floor Plans shall provide for a minimum
buildout of HVAC, lighting, sprinklers, T bar ceiling, and floor covering in all
of the Building except those areas outlined in blue on Exhibit
“B”.  Landlord shall prepare for Tenant’s approval a not to exceed
budget (“Budget”) to be attached as Exhibit “E” based on the Final Tenant Floor
Plans.  Tenant shall have the right to modify the Final Tenant Floor
Plans to reduce the scope of work if it is dissatisfied with the Budget prior to
the start of construction, however, in no event shall the Tenant Interior
Improvements be less than THREE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS
($3,000,000.00).  All such Tenant Interior Improvements outlined on
Exhibit “C” and “D” shall

        belong
to Landlord at the expiration or sooner termination of this
Lease.  All costs for Tenant Interior Improvements shall be fully
documented to and verified by Tenant.

        
          
             

          

          
            iii

            
              

            

          

          
             

          

        

Landlord
shall be responsible for and shall pay the cost of the Tenant Interior
Improvements up to the amount of ONE MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED FIFTY THREE THOUSAND
NINE HUNDRED FORTY AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,853,940.00) (“Tenant Interior
Improvement Allowance”).  Tenant shall pay, upon Substantial
completion, an amount determined by subtracting the Tenant Interior Improvement
Allowance from the actual Tenant Improvement cost.  In no event shall
the actual Tenant Improvement costs exceed the Budget, unless the Budget is
increased by change orders which modify the scope of work outlined on Exhibit
“D”, and provided further, said change orders are initiated and approved in
writing by Tenant.

    

    
      

      Landlord shall use its best efforts
to deliver possession of the Building to Tenant with all Tenant Interior
Improvements therein Substantially Complete as defined below one hundred twenty
(120) calendar days from receipt of a building permit for the construction of
the Tenant Interior Improvements (“Best Efforts Completion
Date”).  Landlord agrees to commence construction after approval of
the Budget, (but in no event prior to 11/15/88), and diligently pursue
completion of construction.  If on the date which is one hundred
twenty (120) calendar days after the date Landlord receives said building permit
for the construction of the Tenant Interior Improvements (“Rent Credit Date”)
the Tenant Interior Improvements are not yet Substantially Complete, Tenant
shall receive a credit against rent otherwise payable equal to two days of rent
for every one day of delay subsequent to such date and before the Improvements
are Substantially Complete.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Best
Efforts Completion Date and the Rent Credit Date shall be extended one day for
every day of delay in completion caused by labor strikes, material shortages,
inclement weather, or other causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord up
to a maximum extension period of two (2) months, and shall be further extended
one day for every day of delay caused by Tenant, either from interference with
Landlord’s work, or as a consequence of change orders requested by Tenant.
However, the Best Efforts Completion Date and the Rent Credit Date shall not be
extended as a consequence of any delay caused by Landlord.  Except as
provided above, if Landlord, for any reason whatsoever, cannot deliver
possession of either Building
to Tenant on or before
the date by which Landlord is to use its best efforts to complete construction
of Tenant Interior Improvements for the Building, as specified, this
Lease shall not be
void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage
resulting therefrom; but in that event the termination date of the Lease to expire on the date which is one
hundred twenty (120) months from the date on which the Building is first
Substantially Complete.

      

      The term
of the Lease shall not commence until the Building is Substantially Complete as
defined herein.  “Substantially Complete” shall mean
that:  (i)  all necessary governmental approvals, permits,
consents, and certificates have been obtained by or for Landlord for the lawful
construction by Landlord, and occupancy by Tenant, of said Building, excluding work
attributable to any special fit-up requested or required by Tenant (i.e. Tenant’s equipment and  furniture),  (ii)  all
of the Building
interior fully meets all of the Tenant Floor Plans, excluding Tenant’s
special fit-up,  (iii)  all of the Building exterior
substantially meets the applicable Tenant Floor Plans, including paved parking
areas, and  (iv)  said interior is in a “broom clean”
finished condition, and the
shell of the Building fully meets all plans and specifications
therefor,  (v)  all utilities are hooked up to the
Building and available for use by
Tenant,  (vi)  there is no incomplete or defective construction which will
materially interfere with Tenant’s proposed use of the Building,
and  (vii)  Landlord has tendered possession of
the Building to Tenant.

      
        
           

        

        
          iv

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      Tenant shall have the right to make
change orders to the approved plans and specifications for the Tenant Interior
Improvements provided that Landlord and Tenant agree in writing on any
time delay or savings
resulting therefrom, and any cost increases or reductions
resulting therefrom.  Any delays resulting from such
change orders exceeding ten (10) business days shall be deemed a Tenant delay
for purposes of determining the Scheduled Completion
Date.  Rent
under this Lease shall
commence on the date that the Building Shell and Tenant Interior Improvements
for the

      Building are Substantially
Complete, provided that
if there are delays caused by Tenant exceeding ten (10) business days,
then rent shall for that
Building shall commence on the date the Premises and the Tenant Interior Improvements
would have been Substantially Complete but for such delays in excess of ten (10)
days.

      

      In connection with Tenant’s
maintenance obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall have the benefit of all warranties obtained
by Landlord relating to the items Tenant is required to
maintain.  Landlord shall assign the same, and
otherwise cooperate in insuring that Tenant receives the full benefit of any such
warranties.

      

      8.           ACCEPTANCE
OF PREMISES AND COVENANTS TO SURRENDER:

      Upon Landlord’s delivery of
possession of the Premises to Tenant, Tenant and Landlord shall walk through the
Building and inspect the same, including the Tenant Interior
Improvements, noting on
a written punchlist all defective or incomplete items.  Such walk-through inspection
shall occur within thirty (30)
days of Landlord’s initial delivery of possession to
Tenant.  Landlord shall promptly after
receipt of such punchlist correct or complete all such defective or incomplete items at Landlord’s sole
expense.  Upon completion of all such
punchlist items, Tenant
shall be deemed to have accepted the Building in good and sanitary
condition, order,
and repair.  Such deemed
acceptance shall not be deemed a waiver of Tenant’s right to
enforce  Landlord’s covenants respecting construction of the Tenant
Interior Improvements, including the covenants set forth in the first two
sentences of paragraph 7 above, nor shall such acceptance be deemed a waiver of Tenant’s right to
have any defects in materials, labor or design of the Premises or the Building repaired at
Landlord’s sole expense. The Tenant agrees on the last day of the term
hereof, or on the sooner termination of this Lease, to surrender the Premises
unto Landlord in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted,
and further excepting
damage and destruction caused
by acts of God or other causes beyond the control of either party, or damage caused by Tenant but which
is covered by insurance hereunder carried by Tenant or Landlord, and the
existence of contamination by toxic or hazardous materials other than those
stored, used or disposed of by Tenant in violation of law and which result in
such contamination. 

       

      "Good
condition" shall mean that the interior walls of all office and warehouse areas,
the floors of all office and warehouse areas, all suspended ceilings and any
carpeting will be cleaned.
Tenant shall ascertain from Landlord within thirty (30) days before the end of
the term of this Lease whether Landlord desires to have the Premises or any part
or parts thereof restored to their condition as of the commencement of this
Lease or to cause Tenant to surrender all alterations, additions, and
improvements in place to Landlord, provided that, with respect to all
alterations made by Tenant pursuant to paragraph 10 below to which Landlord
consents in advance of Tenant making the same, Landlord shall at the time of
such consent indicate to Tenant whether or not such  alteration must
be removed by Tenant from the Premises at the expiration of the Lease term; and
further provided, that if Landlord shall fail to so notify Tenant whether
Landlord requires the same to be removed, such failure to deliver notice shall
be deemed consent by Landlord for Tenant to leave such alteration on the
Premises upon expiration of the Lease term.  If
Landlord shall so desire, then Tenant shall remove such alterations, additions,
and improvements as Landlord may require and shall repair and restore said
Premises or such part or parts thereof before the termination of this Lease at
Tenant's sole cost and expense.  Tenant on or before the end of the
term or sooner termination of this Lease, shall remove all his or its personal
property and trade fixtures from the Premises, and all property not so removed
shall be deemed to be abandoned by Tenant.  If the Premises are not
surrendered at the end of the term or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant
shall indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from delay by
Tenant in so surrendering the Premises including, without limitation, any claims
made by any succeeding tenant founded on such
delay.

..            USES
PROHIBITED:   Tenant shall not commit, or suffer to be committed,
any waste upon the said Premises, or any nuisance, or other act or thing which
may disturb the quiet enjoyment of any other tenant in or around the Buildings
in which the Premises may be located or allow any sale by auction upon the
Premises, or allow the Premises to be used for any unlawful purpose or place any
loads upon the floor, walls, or ceiling which endanger the structure, or use any
machinery or apparatus which will in any manner vibrate or shake the Premises or
the Building of which it is a part in such a fashion as to adversely
affect the structural integrity of the Building, or place any harmful
liquids, waste materials, or hazardous materials in the drainage system of or
soils surrounding the Building. No materials, supplies, equipment, finished
products or semi­- finished products, raw materials or articles of any
nature or any waste materials, refuse, scrap or debris shall be stored upon or
permitted to remain on any portion of the Premises outside of the Building
proper.

      

      
        

        10.          ALTERATIONS
AND ADDITIONS:     Tenant shall not make, or suffer to
be made, any alteration or addition to the said Premises, or any part thereof,
without the written consent of Landlord first had and obtained based upon
Tenant's delivering to Landlord the proposed architectural and structural plans
for all such alterations; any addition or alteration to the said Premises,
except movable furniture and trade fixtures, shall become at once a part of the
realty and belong to Landlord; provided that, Tenant shall retain
title thereto during the term of this Lease to the extent necessary for Tenant
to receive any depreciation and/or other tax benefits available
from such alterations or additions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall
be entitled without obtaining Landlord's consent to make any alteration or
addition to the Premises which does not affect the structure of the Building,
provided that each such alteration costs no more than $15,000, and all such

systems, air conditioning, partitioning, carpeting, or any other installation
which has become an integral part of the Premises after having obtained
Landlord's consent.  Tenant agrees that it will not proceed to make
such alterations or additions, until three (3) days from the receipt of such
consent, in order that Landlord may post appropriate notices to avoid any
liability to contractors or material suppliers for payment for Tenant's
improvements.  Tenant will at all times permit such notices to be
posted and to remain posted until the completion of work.  With respect to all alterations and
additions consented to by Landlord pursuant to the foregoing, Landlord shall indicate to Tenant in
writing at the time of such consent whether or not Landlord will require at the
termination of the term of this Lease that Tenant remove such alteration or
addition.  Landlord's failure to give Tenant such notice shall be
deemed consent by Landlord for Tenant to leave such alteration or addition on
the Premises at the end of the Lease term.

         

        11.  MAINTENANCE
OF PREMISES:   Except as provided in herein,

Landlord with a copy of a service contract between Tenant and a licensed
air-conditioning and heating contractor which contract shall provide for
bi-monthly maintenance of all air conditioning and heating equipment at the
Premises. Tenant shall pay the cost of all air-conditioning and heating
equipment repairs or replacements which are either excluded from such service
contract or any existing equipment warranties.  Tenant shall be
responsible for the preventive maintenance of the membrane of the roof,
which  responsibility shall be deemed properly discharged if (i)
Tenant contracts with a licensed roof contractor who is reasonably satisfactory
to both Tenant and Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost, to inspect the roof membrane
at least every six months, with the first inspection due the sixth (6th) month
after the Commencement Date, and (ii) Tenant performs, at Tenant's sole cost,
all preventive maintenance recommendations made by such contractor within a
reasonable time after such recommendations are made. Such preventive maintenance
might include acts such as clearing storm gutters and drains, removing debris
from the roof membrane, trimming trees overhanging the roof membrane, applying
coating materials to seal roof penetrations, repairing blisters, and other
routine measures. Tenant shall provide to Landlord a copy of such preventive
maintenance contract and paid invoices for the recommended work. All vinyl wall
surfaces and floor tile are to be maintained in an as good a condition as when
Tenant took possession free of holes, gouges, or defacements. Tenant agrees to
limit attachments to vinyl wall surfaces exclusively to V-joints.  The

Landlord at its sole cost and expense, and without reimbursement of all or any
such costs from Tenant, shall maintain in good condition, order, and repair, and
replace as and when necessary, the foundation, exterior walls, structure and
structural members, and roof structure of the Building.  Subject to
the obligations of Tenant to provide periodic  inspections and perform
routine maintenance of the membrane of the roof in accordance with the
provisions set forth above, Landlord shall also maintain in good condition,
order, and repair, and replace as and when necessary, the membrane of the
roof.  Further notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall at its
sole expense repair as soon as reasonably possible after discovery of same and

all violations of laws, regulations, conditions, covenants and restrictions, or
other promulgations of lawful governmental authority in connection with any

foregoing, in no event shall Tenant be responsible for the performance or costs
of repair or maintenance; (i) necessitated by the acts or omissions of Landlord
or its agents, employees or contractors; (ii) necessitated by the occurrence of
any peril, whether or not covered by insurance; or (iii) for which Landlord has a right of
reimbursement from insurance companies, or other third
parties.

         

        12.             HAZARD

or any part thereof, to be used, for any purpose other than that for
which the said Premises are hereby leased; and no use shall be made or
permitted to be made of the said Premises, nor acts done, which will cause an
increase in premiums or a cancellation of any insurance policy covering
the
Premises, or any part
thereof, nor shall Tenant sell or permit to be kept, used or sold, in or about
said Premises, any article which may be prohibited by the standard form of fire
insurance policies. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with any
and all requirements, pertaining to said Premises, of any insurance organization
or company, necessary for the maintenance of reasonable fire and public
liability insurance, covering said Premises
and appurtenances. The
Landlord agrees to purchase and keep in force fire, and extended coverage
insurance covering the Premises in in the amount of the full
replacement value of the
Building, as determined by Landlord's insurance company's appraisers. The Tenant
agrees to pay to the Landlord as additional rent, on demand, the full cost of
said insurance as evidenced by insurance billings to the Landlord Payment shall
be due to Landlord within ten (10) days after written invoice to
Tenant.

        In addition, Tenant agrees to insure
its personal property, additions, alterations, and improvements for their full
replacement value (without depreciation) and to obtain worker's compensation and
public liability and property damage insurance for occurrences within the
Premises of $5,000,000.00 combined single limit for bodily injury and property
damage. Tenant shall name Landlord as an additional insured, shall deliver a
copy of the policies and renewal certificates to Landlord.  All
such policies shall
provide for thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord of any
cancellation or termination. Notwithstanding the above, Landlord retains the
right to have Tenant provide other forms of insurance which may be reasonably
required to cover future risks.

         

        
          Landlord
and Tenant hereby waive any rights each may have against the other on account of
any loss or damage occasioned to the Landlord or the Tenant as the case may be,
or to the Premises or its contents, and which may arise from any risk covered by
their respective insurance policies, as set forth above, to the extent of the amount of
insurance proceeds actually received by the insured party.  The
parties shall obtain from their respective insurance companies a waiver of any
right of subrogation which said insurance company may have against the Landlord
or the Tenant, as the case may be.

        

        
          

          Tenant
shall not be liable for any deductibles relating to earthquake
insurance.  With respect to all other insurance deductibles, Tenant
shall not have any liability to the extent the deductibles exceed $10,000 per
occurrence of damage.  Tenant shall have no liability for premiums
relating to earthquake insurance to the extent the amount of the premium
therefor exceeds 3.5cents per square foot per month.  Tenant shall not
be required to pay insurance premiums more than thirty (30) days in advance of
the date on which such insurance premiums are due.  The amounts
referenced in the paragraph shall be increased annually by the change in the
CPI.

           

          13.           TAXES:   Tenant shall be
liable for all taxes levied against personal property and trade or business
fixtures, and agrees to pay, as additional rental, all real estate taxes and
special assessment installments levied on the Premises, upon the
occupancy of the Premises and including any substitute or additional charges
which may be imposed during the Lease term including real estate tax increases due to a sale or
other transfer of the Premises, as they appear on the City and County tax bills during the Lease term,
and as they become due. It is understood and agreed that Tenant's obligation
under this paragraph will be prorated to reflect the commencement and
termination dates of this Lease. If Tenant's Allocable Share of Taxes (based on
square footage) is not consistent with the method used by the County Tax
Assessor, Landlord shall allocate based on the County's formula.  In
any time during the term of this Lease a tax, excise on rents, business license
tax, or any other tax, however described, is levied or assessed against
Landlord, as a substitute or addition in whole or in part for taxes assessed or imposed on land or
Buildings,  Tenant shall pay and discharge his prorata share of such
tax or excise on rents or other tax before it becomes delinquent, except that
this provision is not intended to cover net income taxes, inheritance, gift or
estate tax imposed upon the Landlord.  In the event that a tax is
placed, levied,  or assessed against Landlord and the taxing authority
takes the position that the Tenant cannot pay and discharge his prorata share of
such tax on behalf of the Landlord, then at the sole election
of   the Landlord, the Landlord may increase the rental charged
hereunder by the exact amount of such tax.  Tenant shall not be
required to pay insurance premiums or taxes more than thirty (30) days in
advance of the date on which such taxes would otherwise become delinquent, or
sooner than  thirty (30) days after receipt from Landlord of the tax
bill for the Premises. Tenant at its cost shall have the right, at any time, to
seek a reduction in the assessed valuation of the Premises or to contest any
real property taxes that are to be paid by Tenant. Landlord shall not be
required to join in any proceeding or contest brought by Tenant unless the
provisions of any law require that the proceeding or contest be brought by or in
the name of Landlord or any owner of the Premises.  In that case,
Landlord shall join in the proceeding or contest or permit it to be brought in
Landlord's name as long as Landlord is not required to bear any
cost.

        14.
UTILITIES:   Tenant shall pay directly to the providing
utility all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone and other utilities
supplied to the Premises.  Landlord shall not be liable for a loss of
or injury to property, however occurring, through or in connection with or
incidental to furnishing or failure to furnish any of utilities to the Premises
and Tenant shall not be entitled to abatement or reduction of any portion of the
rent so long as any failure to provide and furnish the utilities to the Premises
due to any cause beyond the Landlord's reasonable control.

        
          

          15.
ABANDONMENT:   Tenant shall not vacate or abandon the
Premises at any time during the term; and if Tenant shall abandon, vacate or
surrender said Premises, or be dispossessed by process of law, or otherwise, any
personal property belonging to Tenant and left on the Premises shall be deemed
to be abandoned, at the option of Landlord, except such property as may be
mortgaged to Landlord, Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant shall be entitled to suspend its operations on the Premises indefinitely
and/or vacate the Premises provided that Tenant continues to timely pay rent and
perform all other obligations of Tenant under this
Lease, and in the event
of physical vacation of the Premises, also provides a security guard or other
reasonable security protection for the Premises.

        

        

        16. FREE FROM
LIENS:    Tenant shall
keep the Premises and the Building in which the Premises are situated, free from
any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations
incurred by Tenant Landlord agrees to
execute upon written request by Tenant any equipment lien waivers required by
lenders or lessors respecting such equipment provided that such
lenders or lessors agree to repair any damage caused by their removal of such
machinery orequipment and further agree to such additional reasonable
requirements as Landlord may impose at the time such equipment lien waivers
are
requested.

        

        17. COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL
REGULATIONS:Subject to
paragraph 18 below, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply
with all of the  requirements of all Municipal, State and Federal
authorities now in force, or which may hereafter  be in force,
pertaining to Tenant's
particular use of the Premises, and shall faithfully observe
in   the use of the Premises all Municipal ordinances and State
and Federal statutes now in force or which may hereafter be in force. The judgement of any court of competent
jurisdiction, or the admission of Tenant in any action or
proceeding against Tenant, whether Landlord be a party thereto or not, that Tenant has
violated any such ordinance or statute in the use of the Premises, shall be conclusive of that fact as
between Landlord and Tenant. In
the event any improvement, addition,
or alteration to the Building is required in the future as a consequence of
requirements of lawful governmental authority enacted subsequent to the
execution of this Lease, the cost of such improvements shall be allocated
between Landlord and Tenant such that Landlord initially bears the entire cost
thereof, and Tenant bears from and after the date of completion of such  improvement the
amortized portion of the cost thereof each year based upon the actual useful
life of such improvement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all violations of
building codes and other promulgations of lawful governmental authority which
relate to construction of the Tenant Interior Improvements or the Building shall
be corrected by Landlord at its sole cost and expense.

        
          

        

        18. TOXIC WASTE AND
ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE:   Without the prior
written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall not bring, allow, use or permit upon
the Premises, or generate   or create at or emit or dispose from
the Premises any chemicals, toxic or hazardous gaseous,
liquid   or solid materials or waste, including without
limitation, material or substance having characteristics of ignitability,
corrosivity, reactivity, or extraction procedure toxicity or
substances

        or
materials which are listed on any of the Environmental Protection Agency's lists
of hazardous wastes or which are identified in
Sections 66680 through 66685 of Title 22 of the California Administrative
Code as the same may be amended from time to time. Tenant shall comply, at its
sole cost, with all laws pertaining to, and shall indemnify and hold Landlord
harmless from any claims, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or suffered by
Landlord arising from such bringing, allowing, using, permitting, generating,
creating, or emitting or disposing of any such materials. Tenant's
indemnification and hold harmless obligations include, without limitation, (i)
claims, liability, costs or expenses resulting from or based upon
administrative, judicial (civil or criminal) or other action, legal or
equitable, brought by any private or public person under common law or under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980
("CERLA"), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1980 ("RCRA") or any
other Federal, State, County or Municipal law, ordinance or regulation, (ii)
claims, liabilities, costs or expenses pertaining to the cleanup or containment
of wastes, the identification of the pollutants in the waste, the identification
of scope of any environmental contamination, the removal of pollutants from
soils, riverbeds or aquifers, the provision of an alternative public drinking
water source, or the long term monitoring of ground water and surface waters,
and (iii) all costs of defending such claims. In order to obtain consent, Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord its written proposal describing the toxic material to
be brought onto the Premises, measures to be taken for storage and disposal
thereof, safety measures to be employed to prevent pollution of the air, ground,
surface and ground water.  Tenant further agrees to properly close the
facility with regard to hazardous materials and obtain a Closure Certificate
from the local administering agency.

          19.   INDEMNITY:   As
a material part of the consideration to be rendered to Landlord, and except to the extent caused by
the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or
contractors, Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord for damages
to   goods, wares and merchandise, and all other personal
property in, upon or about said Premises and for injuries to persons in or about
said Premises, from any cause arising at any time, and Tenant will hold Landlord
exempt and harmless from any damage or injury to any person, or to the goods,
wares and merchandise and all other personal property of any person, arising
from the use of the Premises by Tenant, or from the failure of Tenant to keep
the Premises in good condition and repair, as herein provided. Further, in the
event Landlord is made party to any litigation due to the acts or omission of
Tenant, Tenant will indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any such claim or
liability including Landlord's costs and expenses and reasonable attorney's fees
incurred in defending such claims.

SIGNS:    Tenant will not place or permit to be
placed, in, upon or about the said Premises any signs not approved by the city
or other governing authority.  The Tenant will not place, or permit to
be placed, upon the Premises, any signs, advertisements or notices without the
written consent of the Landlord which will not be
unreasonably withheld.  Any sign so placed on the Premises shall be so
placed upon the understanding and agreement that Tenant will remove same at the
termination of the tenancy herein created and repair any damage or injury to the
Premises caused thereby, and if not so removed by Tenant then Landlord may have
same so removed at Tenant's expense.

        

        

        21. ATTORNEY'S
FEES:    In case suit
should be brought for the possession of the Premises, for the recovery of any
sum due hereunder, or because of the breach of any other covenant herein, the
losing party shall pay to the prevailing party a reasonable attorney's
fee as part of its costs which shall be deemed to have accrued on the
commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action
is prosecuted to judgement.

         

        22. TENANT'S
DEFAULT:   The occurrence of any of the following shall
constitute a material default and breach of this Lease by Tenant a) Any failure
by Tenant to pay the rental or to make any other payment required to be made by
Tenant hereunder, where such failure continues for ten (10) days after written
notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant; b) Subject to paragraph 22, the
abandonment or vacation of the Premises by Tenant; c) A failure by Tenant to
observe and perform any other provision of this Lease to be observed or
performed by Tenant, where such failure continues for thirty (30) days after
written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if the
nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within
such thirty (30) day period Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if
Tenant shall within such period commence such cure and thereafter diligently
prosecute the same to completion; d) The making by Tenant of any general
assignment for the benefit of creditors; the filing by or against Tenant of a
petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or of a petition for reorganization
or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a
petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed after the filing); the
appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially
all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this
Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within sixty (60) days; or the
attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's
assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such
seizure is not discharged within sixty (60) days. The notice
requirements set forth herein are in lieu of and not in addition to the notices
required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161.

                  22. (a)
Remedies: In the event of any such
default by Tenant, then in addition to any  other remedies available
to Landlord at law or in equity,
Landlordshall have the 

              immediate option to terminate this Lease and all
rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice of such intention to
terminate.  In the event that Landlord shall elect to so terminate
this Lease then Landlord may recover from Tenant: a) the worth at the time of
award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination;
plus b) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent
would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the
amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided;
plus c) the worth at
the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the
term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that
Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus d) any other amount necessary to
compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure
to perform his obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of
things would be likely to result therefrom, and e) at Landlord's election, such
other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoi ng as may be permitted
from time to time by applicable California law. The term "rent", as used herein,
shall be deemed to be and to mean the minimum monthly installments of rent and
all other sums required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this
Lease, all other such sums being deemed to be additional rental due
hereunder.  As used in (a) and (b) above, the "worth at
the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the rate of the discount
rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco plus five (5%) percent per
annum. As used in (c) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by
discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco at the time of award plus one (1%)
percent.

            

            

            22. (b)
Right to Re-enter: In the event of any
such default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the right, upon
terminating this Lease, to re-enter the Premises and remove all persons
and property from the Premises; such property may
be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for
the account of Tenant.

            

            22.(c)   Abandonment:    In the event of the vacation or
abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, to the extent
not permitted pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 15 above, or in the
event that Landlord shall elect to re-enter as provided in paragraph 22.(b)
above or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or
pursuant to any notice provided by law, then if Landlord does not elect to
terminate this Lease as provided in paragraph 22.(a) above, then the provisions
of California Civil Code Section 1951.4, as amended from time to time, shall
apply and Landlord may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, either
recover all rental as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof
for such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms
and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable with the
right to make alterations and repairs to the
Premises. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so relet, then rentals
received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the payment
of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord;
second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting; third, to the
payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises;
fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder, and the residue, if
any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same
may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals
received from such reletting during any month, which is applied by the payment
of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Tenant
hereunder, then Tenant shall, pay such deficiency to Landlord immediately upon
demand therefor by Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid
monthly.  Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained,
any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting or in making such
alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such
reletting.

            22. (d) No Termination: No re-entry or taking
possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to 22. (b) or 22. (c) of this
Article 22 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a
written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination
thereof be decreed by a court of
competent jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding any reletting without
termination by Landlord because of any default by Tenant, Landlord may at any
time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease for any such
default.

            

            23. SURRENDER OF
LEASE:  The voluntary or
other surrender of this Lease by Tenant or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall
not automatically effect a merger of the Lease with Landlord’s ownership of the
Building and Premises.  Instead, at the option of Landlord, Tenant’s
surrender may terminate all or any existing sublease or subtenancies, or may
operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all such subleases or
subtenancies, thereby creating a direct Landlord-Tenant relationship between
Landlord and any subtenants.

            

            24. HABITUAL DEFAULT: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in paragraph 22, 22 (a) (b) (c) and (d), the parties hereto agree that if the
Tenant shall have defaulted in the payment
of rent for three or more times during any twelve month period during the
term hereof, then such conduct shall, at the election of the Landlord, represent
a separate event of default which cannot be cured by the Tenant. Tenant
acknowledges that the purpose of this provision is to prevent repetitive
defaults by the Tenant under the Lease, which work a hardship upon the Landlord,
and deprive the Landlord of the timely performance by the Tenant
hereunder.

            

            25. LANDLORD'S DEFAULT: In the event of Landlord's failure to perform any of
its covenants or agreements under this Lease, Tenant shall give Landlord written
notice of such failure and shall give Landlord the reasonable opportunity to
cure such failure prior to any claim for breach or for damages resulting from
such failure.

      26. NOTICES:
All notices given
to Tenant may be given in writing personally or by depositing the same in the
United States mail, postage prepaid, registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, and addressed to
Tenant at the said Premises, whether or not Tenant has departed from, abandoned
or vacated the Premises. All notices shall be deemed received three (3) days
after posting. Either
party shall have the right to change its address by written notice to such
effect to the other party.

      

      
        27.  ENTRY BY
LANDLORD:  Tenant shall
permit Landlord and his agents to enter into and upon said Premises at all
reasonable times, upon at least
twenty-four hours prior notice by Landlord to Tenant, subject to any
security regulations of Tenant for the purpose of inspecting the same or for the
purpose of maintaining the Premises or the Building in which said Premises are
situated, or for the purpose of making repairs, alterations or additions to any
other portion of said Building or for the purpose of erecting additional
building (s) and improvements in the Building, on the land where the Building is
situated, in the Project, or on adjacent land owned by Landlord, including the
erection and maintenance of such scaffolding, canopies, fences, and props as may
be required without any rebate of rent or without any liability to Tenant for
any loss of occupation or quiet enjoyment of the Premises thereby occasioned;
and Tenant shall permit Landlord and his agents, at any time within ninety (90)
days prior to the expiration of this Lease, to place upon said Premises any “For
Sale” or “to lease” signs and exhibit the Premises to prospective tenants at
reasonable hours.  During any entry by Landlord upon the Premises
permitted by this paragraph 27, Landlord shall minimize its interference with
Tenant’s activities on the Premises.  To the
extent Tenant
is required to discontinue its operations on the Premises as a consequence of
Landlord's activities in connection with its entry onto the Premises, Tenant
shall be entitled to abatement of rent in proportion to the degree to which the
Tenant is required to discontinue such
operations.

      

      
        

        28.
DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES:    In the event of a partial destruction of the
Premises by an insured casualty or
any casualty for which insurance is required hereunder during the said
term from any cause, Landlord shall forthwith repair the same, provided such
repairs can be made within one
hundred eighty (180) days under the
laws and regulations of State, Federal, County or Municipal authorities, but
such partial destruction shall in no way annul or void this Lease, except that
Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction of rent from
and after the date of damage until such repairs are completed, such proportionate
reduction to be based upon the extent to which the making of such repairs shall
interfere with the business carried on by Tenant in the said Premises in the
reasonable judgement of Landlord. If such repairs cannot be made in one
hundred eighty (180) days, Landlord
may, at its option, make same within a reasonable time, this Lease continuing in
full force and effect and the rent to be proportionately reduced as aforesaid in
this paragraph provided. In the event that Landlord does not elect to make such
repairs, or such repairs cannot be made under such laws and regulations, this
Lease may be terminated at the option of Tenant For purposes of this paragraph
"partial destruction" shall mean destruction to the extent of one-third (1/3) of
the Replacement Cost of the Premises or less. In the event the Premises
are more than partially destroyed, Landlord or
Tenant may elect to
terminate this Lease, or
Landlord may proceed with
repairs, in which
event this Lease
shall
continue in full
force and the rent shall
be
proportionately reduced as aforesaid. In respect to any partial destruction
which Landlord is obligated to repair or may elect to repair under the terms of
this paragraph, the provision of Section 1932, Subdivision 2, and of Section
1933, Subdivision 4, of the Civil Code of the State of California are waived by
Tenant. An
uninsured casualty shall be deemed to exist only to the extent insurance was not
required to be carried by either party hereunder for such casualty or if Tenant
elects not to fund the difference between the amount of insurance proceeds
actually paid to cover such damage and the cost to
repair such damage. In the event of a total or partial destruction of the
Premises by an uninsured casualty, then Landlord shall forthwith repair the
same, provided such repairs will cost no more than $180,000 and can be made
within 180 days under the laws and regulations of applicable governmental
authorities; rent while such repairs are being made, shall be abated based upon
the extent to which the repairs interfere with the business conducted by Tenant
in the Premises. In the event of total or partial destruction of the Premises by
an uninsured casualty which will cost more than. $180,000 to repair, or which
can not be made within said 180 day period, Landlord shall be entitled to
terminate, this Lease by notice to Tenant within ten (10) days after the
occurrence of said damage. If Landlord elects to terminate because the repairs
will cost more than $180,000, then Tenant may commit to fund the balance of the
repair costs, in which event Landlord shall promptly make such repairs and this
Lease shall continue in full force and. effect. If Landlord does not elect to
terminate the Lease, Landlord shall promptly make all repairs at its sole cost
and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. In the event of
any dispute between Landlord and Tenant relative to the provisions of this
paragraph, they shall each select an arbitrator, the two arbitrators so selected
shall select a third arbitrator and the three arbitrators so selected shall hear
and determine the controversy and their decision thereon shall be final and
binding upon both Landlord and Tenant, who shall bear the cost of such
arbitration equally between them. In all events Landlord shall not be required
to restore additions; alterations or improvements made by Tenant or replace
Tenant's fixtures or personal property.  In
the event any repairs, whether with respect to an insured or uninsured casualty,
require more than one hundred eighty (180) days to complete in Landlord's
reasonable estimation, Tenant shall be entitled to terminate this Lease by
notice to Landlord of such termination within ten (10) days afterLandlord
advises Tenant of the time period required to complete such
repairs.

      29 . ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE:
In the event Tenant desires to assign this Lease or any interest therein including, without
limitation, a pledge, mortgage or other hypothecation, or sublet the Premises or
any part thereof, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord executed counterparts of any
such agreement and of all ancillary agreements with the proposed assignee or
subtenant, financial statements, and any additional information as reasonably
required to determine whether it will consent to the proposed assignment or
sublease. The notice shall give the name and current address of the proposed
assignee/subtenant, proposed use of the Premises, rental rate and current
financial statement; and upon request to Tenant, Landlord shall be given
additional information as reasonably required to determine whether it will
consent to the proposed assignment or sublease. Landlord shall then have a
period of seven (7) business
days following receipt of
such notice within which to notify Tenant in writing that Landlord elects (i) to
terminate this Lease as to the space so affected as of the date so specified by
Tenant in which event Tenant will be relieved of all further obligations
hereunder as to such space; provided that
Landlord shall only be entitled to terminate this Lease in the event the
proposed assignment or sublease relates to more than fifty percent (50%) of the
Building for a cumulative period of time in excess of three (3) years to the
same subtenant, (ii) to
permit Tenant to assign or sublet such space to the named assignee/subtenant on
the terms and conditions set forth in the notice, or (iii) refuse consent. If
Landlord should fail to notify Tenant in writing of such election within said
seven
(7) business-day period,
Landlord shall be deemed to have elected option (ii) above. Any rent or other
economic consideration realized by Tenant under any such sublease and assignment
in excess of the Base Rental and Additional Rental payable hereunder (including
an allocation of the purchase price in the event of a sale of the Tenant's
business), after the net unamortized cost of the Tenant Extra Improvements for
which Tenant has itself paid, and reasonable subletting and assignment costs,
shall be divided and paid fifty percent
(50%) to Landlord
and
fifty percent (50%) to
Tenant. Tenant's obligation to pay over Landlord's portion of the consideration
shall constitute an obligation for additional rent hereunder. No assignment or
subletting by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of any obligation under this
Lease.  Any assignment or subletting which conflicts with the
provisions hereof shall be void.

      
         

        If
Landlord exercises its option to terminate this Lease in part in the event
Tenant desires to sublet or assign part of the Premises, then (a) this Lease
shall end and expire, with respect to such part of the Premises, on the date
upon which the proposed sublease was to commence, and (b) from and after such
date, the rent and Tenant's allocable share of all other costs and charges shall
be adjusted, based upon the proportion that the rentable area of the Premises
remaining bears to the total rentable area of the Premises.

        If
Landlord does not exercise its option to terminate this Lease, Landlord's
consent (which must be in writing and in form reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord) to the proposed assignment or sublease shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, provided and upon condition that:

        
          

          (a) In
Landlord's reasonable judgement, the proposed assignee or subtenant is engaged
in such a business, and the Premises, or the relevant part thereof, will be used
in such a manner, that: (ii) is limited to the use expressly permitted under
this Lease; and (ii) will not violate any negative covenant as to use contained
in any other lease of space in the Building;

        

        
          (b) The
proposed assignee or subtenant is a company with sufficient financial worth and
management ability to undertake the responsibility involved, and Landlord has
been furnished with reasonable proof thereof;

        

        
          

          (c)
Neither (i) the proposed assignee or subtenant nor (ii) any person that,
directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control
with, the proposed assignee or subtenant or any person who controls the proposed
assignee or subtenant, is then an occupant of any part of the Building or
Project of which the Premises are part;

        

        
          

          (d) The
proposed sublease shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord;

        

        
          

          (e) There
shall not be more than one (1) subtenant of the Premises at any one
time;

        

        
          

          (f)
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand for any costs that may be incurred by
Landlord in connection with said assignment or sublease, including the costs of
making investigations as to the acceptability of the proposed assignee or
subtenant and legal costs incurred in connection with the granting of any
requested consent; and

        

        
          

          (g)
Tenant shall not have: (i) advertised or publicized in any way the availability
of the Premises without prior notice to, and approval by, Landlord, which approval Landlord shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay in giving.

        

        
           

          Any
sublease or assignment executed with the consent of Landlord shall be subject to
all of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions contained in
this Lease.  Notwithstanding any such sublease or assignment and the
acceptance of rent or additional rent by Landlord from any subtenant or
assignee, Tenant shall and will remain fully liable for the payment of the rent
and additional rent due, and to become due hereunder, for the performance of all
of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions contained in this
Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed and for all acts and omissions of
any licensee, subtenant, assignee or any other person claiming under or through
any subtenant that shall be in violation of any of the obligations of this
Lease, and any such violation shall be deemed to be a violation by Tenant.
Tenant shall further indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and
against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorney fees) resulting from any claims that may be made against
Landlord by the proposed assignee or subtenant or by any real estate brokers or
other persons claiming a commission or similar compensation in connection with
the proposed assignment or sublease. In the event of Tenant's default, Tenant
hereby assigns all rents due from any assignment or subletting to Landlord as
security for performance of its obligations under this Lease and Landlord may
collect such rents as Tenant's Attorney-in-Fact, except that Tenant may collect
such rents unless a default occurs, as described in paragraph 22
above.

        Any
assignment or transfer shall be made only if and shall not be effective until
the assignee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an agreement, in
form and substance satisfactory to Landlord, whereby the assignee shall assume
all of the obligations of this Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed or
observed.

        
          

          If Tenant
is a corporation or partnership, all the above provisions shall apply to a
transfer (by one or more transfers) of a majority of the stock of the
corporation or the majority of ownership or control of the partnership, as if
such transfer were an assignment of this Lease; but said provisions shall not
apply to transactions with a corporation or partnership which is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Tenant; and provided further that said provisions shall not apply
to transactions with corporate
parents, or any issuance of stock by Tenant in a series of financings, or to any
transfer of shares by Tenant in connection with a merger, consolidation, or
other reorganization of Tenant after which Tenant is the
survivor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all such transactions shall
require the consent of Landlord unless the Tenant, after such transaction, has a
net worth in excess of the net worth of Tenants as of the date Tenant executes
this Lease.

        

         

        The
termination of this Lease due to Tenant’s default shall not automatically
terminate any assignment or sublease then in existence.  At the
election of Landlord, the assignee or subtenant shall attorn to Landlord and
Landlord shall undertake the obligations of the Tenant under the sublease or
assignment; provided the Landlord shall not be liable for prepaid rent, security
deposits, or other defaults of the Tenant to the subtenant or
assignee.

        

        30.  CONDEMNATION:   If
any part of the Premises shall be taken for any public or quasi-public use,
under any statute or by
right of eminent domain or private purchase in lieu thereof, and a part thereof
remains which is susceptible of occupation hereunder, this Lease shall as to the
part so taken, terminate as of the date title shall vest in the condemnor or
purchaser, and the rent payable hereunder shall be adjusted so that the Tenant
shall be required to pay for the remainder of the term only such portion of such
rent as the value of the part remaining after such taking bears to the value of
the entire Premises prior to such taking.  If all of the Premises or
such part thereof be taken so that there does not remain a portion susceptible
for occupation hereunder, this Lease shall thereupon terminate.  If a
part or all of the
Premises be taken, all compensation awarded upon such taking shall go to the
Landlord and the Tenant shall have no claim thereto but Landlord shall cooperate
with Tenant to recover compensation for damage to or taking of any alterations, additions or
improvements made by Tenant, and Tenant’s moving costs.  Tenant hereby
waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedures Section
1265.130.

        

        31.  EFFECTS OF
CONVEYANCE:   The term “Landlord” as used in this Lease,
means only the owner for the time being of the land and Building, containing the
Premises, so that, in the event of any sale of said land or Building, or in the event of
a master Lease of the Building, the Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely
freed and relieved of all covenants and obligations of the Landlord hereunder,
to the extent such obligations accrue subsequent to the date of said sale or
master
Lease, and only to the extent the purchaser or master Lessee agrees in
writing to assume the obligations of Landlord under the Lease arising after said
sale or master Lease, and it shall be deemed and construed, without further
agreement between the parties and the purchaser at any such sale, or the master
tenant of the Building, that the purchaser or master tenant of the Building has
assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and obligations of the
Landlord hereunder.  Landlord shall transfer and deliver Tenant’s
security deposit, to the purchaser at any such sale or the master tenant of the
Building, and thereupon the Landlord shall be discharged from any further
liability in reference thereto.

      32. SUBORDINATION: In the event Landlord
notifies Tenant in writing, this
Lease shallbe subordinate to any ground Lease, deed of trust, or other
hypothecation for security now or hereafter placed
upon the real property of which the Premises are a part and to any and
all advances made on the security thereof and to renewals, modifications,
replacements and extensions
thereof.  Tenant agrees to promptly execute any documents which
may be required to effectuate such subordination, provided that Tenant receives
from the lender or other lien holder requesting such subordination
an agreement in writing that provides that in the event the lien holder
acquires title to the real property of which the Premises are a part, such party
shall not terminate this Lease so long as Tenant is not in default hereunder,
and such party shall recognize all of the rights of the Tenant under the Lease.
Notwithstanding such subordination, Tenant’s rights to quiet possession of the
Premises shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default and so long as
Tenant shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of this
Lease.

      

      33. WAIVER:
The waiver
by Landlord
or Tenant of any breach of any term, covenant or condition, herein
contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or
condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term,
covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of rent
hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach
by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease ,other than the failure of Tenant
to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Landlord's knowledge of
such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such
rent.

      

      34. HOLDING
OVER:  Any holding over after
the termination or expiration of the said term, shall be construed to be a hold
over tenancy and Tenant shall pay rent to Landlord at a rate equal to one and
one -fourth
(1.25) times the monthly rental
installment due in the month preceding the
termination or expiration of the Lease and shall otherwise be on the terms and
conditions herein specified, except those provisions relating to the term and
any options to extend or renew, which terms are expressly waived during any hold
over. Furthermore, no holding over shall be deemed or construed to
exercise any option to extend or renew this Lease in lieu of full and timely
exercise of any such option as required hereunder.

      

      35. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS:
The covenants and conditions herein contained
shall, subject to the provisions as to assignment, apply to and bind the heirs,
successors, executors, administrators and assigns of all the parties hereto: and
all of the parties hereto
shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder.

      

      36. ESTOPEL
CERTIFICATES: Tenant shall at any time
during the term of this Lease, upon not less than five (5) days prior written
notice from Landlord, execute and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing
certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect

      (or, if modified,
stating the nature of such modification) and the date to which the rent
and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and acknowledging that there are
not to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord
hereunder or specifying such defaults if they are claimed. Any such
statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or
encumbrancer of the Premises. Tenant’s failure to deliver such statement within
such time shall be conclusive upon the Tenant that (a) this Lease is in full
force and effect without modification except as may be represented by Landlord
(b) there are not uncured defaults in Landlord’s
performance.

      

      37. OPTION TO
EXTEND:  Tenant shall have
the option and right to extend the term of this Lease for two (2) separate additional
and successive option periods of five (5) years each, ( each such period being
referred to as the  “ Renewal Term “ ) commencing with rent at “ Fair
Market  Value “as defined in paragraph 38 below, only under the
following conditions precedent: (i) That
no event of default
has occurred at the time of Tenant’s exercise of the option to extend the
term
or at
the time of commencement of the extended term: and (ii) Tenant
has delivered written notice by certified mail to Landlord not less than
one hundred and twenty (120) days prior and not more than one hundred and
eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the then existing term of
the Lease of  Tenant’s intention to extend the term of the
Lease.

      38. FAIR MARKET VALUE: For
purposes of this Lease the term "Fair Market Value" shall mean the going market
rental as of the date of commencement of each Renewal Term, for equivalent space
in San Jose of similar age and construction, with improvements and equipment in
similar condition (but
excluding improvements and equipment installed by Tenant at Tenant's sole
expense which Tenant has a right to remove) and for a lessee proposing to
sign a five (5) year lease and having financial qualifications similar to
Tenant, it being understood that in determining "Fair Market Value" the parties
shall negotiate in good faith in order to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after the
exercise of the Option to Extend by Tenant; and in the event the parties
are unable to reach agreement, the matter shall be referred to arbitration by
three (3) M.A.I.
appraisers, experienced in the evaluation of similar rental properties in
the County of Santa Clara, State of California. Landlord and Tenant shall each
appoint one such arbitrator within thirty (30) days of a written request for
arbitration from the other, and the two arbitrators so selected shall select a
third arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the selection of the second
arbitrator.  The determination of the three arbitrators shall be made
by the vote of two (2) or more of the three arbitrators within thirty (30) days
from the date of the appointment of the third arbitrator and shall be final for
all purposes.  The cost of arbitration shall be shared
equally.  In no event shall such "Fair Market Value" be less than the
rental paid during the year immediately preceding the commencement of the
current extension.  In the event the determination of
Fair Market Value pursuant to the foregoing provisions results in a Fair Market
Value which is in excess of an amount Tenant believes is appropriate, Tenant
shall be entitled to rescind its exercise of the Option to Extend within ten
(10) days after the date the Fair Market Value is actually determined and Tenant
is notified thereof, in which event the term of this Lease shall expire as
though the option to extend were never exercised.

      

      39. RENTAL ADJUSTMENTS DURING RENEWAL
PERIODS: As noted above the initial rental rate for the first year of
each Renewal Term shall be the "Fair Market Value" calculated in accordance with
paragraph 38.  The rent during each Renewal Term shall be subject to
annual adjustments beginning the second year of each Renewal Term based on the
Consumer Price Index Adjustment ("Adjustment").  The basis for
computing the Adjustment shall be the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor
Statistic's Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, All Items,
1982-84=100, for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose area,
("Index").  The Index most recently published preceding the
commencement of each Renewal Term shall be considered the "Beginning
Index".  If the Index most recently published preceding the Adjustment
Date ("Comparison Index") is greater than the Beginning Index, the monthly rent
shall be increased by multiplying the monthly rent by a fraction, the numerator
of which is the Comparison Index and the denominator of which is the Beginning
Index.  Notwithstanding any subsequent decrease in the Index, the new
monthly rent shall never be less than the rent for the month immediately
preceding the Adjustment Date.  On adjustment of the monthly rent
Landlord shall notify Tenant by letter stating the new monthly
rent.  If the Index base year is changed so that it differs from
1982-84=100, the Index shall be
converted in accordance with the conversion factor published by the
United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.  If the
Index is discontinued or revised during the Renewal Term, such other government
index or computation with which it is replaced shall be used in order to obtain
substantially the same result as would be obtained if the index had not been
discontinued or revised.

OPTIONS:   In the event that Tenant hereunder has any
multiple options to extend this Lease, a later option to extend the Lease cannot
be exercised unless the prior option has been so exercised.

      
        

        41.  QUIET
ENJOYMENT:   Upon Tenant's faithful and timely performance

    CONTINUING
LEASE GUARANTY

    

    This
GUARANTY, made as of November 15, 1996, by THE DII GROUP, INC.
(“Guarantor”) to SOBRATO DEVELOPMENT
COMPANIES #871, a California limited partnership
(“Landlord”),

    

    WITNESSETH:

    

    1. For
Valuable consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged, and to induce landlord
to enter into the Assignment of Lease and Consent to Assignment of Lease (the
“Lease Assignment”) of even date herewith with paradigm Technology, Inc.
(“Paradigm”) and Orbit Semiconductor, Inc. (“Tenant”), Guarantor hereby
absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Landlord, and agrees
fully to pay, perform and discharge, as and when payment, performance and
discharge are due, all of the covenants, obligations and liabilities of Tenant
under the lease (the “Lease”) dated December 7, 1988 between Landlord and
Paradigm and to be assigned to Tenant in accordance with the Lease Assignment
and all amendments, modifications, renewals, extensions, supplements,
substitutions and replacements of the Lease (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The
obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, unconditional
and irrevocable and shall continue and remain in full force and effect until all
of the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully paid, performed and
discharged.

     

    2. The
obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected, modified or
impaired by the occurrence of any of the following events, whether or not with
notice to, or the consent of, Guarantor: (a) the waiver, surrender, compromise,
settlement, release or termination of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations;
(b) the failure to give notice to Guarantor of the occurrence of an event of
default under the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) the extension of the time for the
payment, performance or discharge of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations;
(d) the amendment or modification (whether material or otherwise) of the Lease
or the Guaranteed Obligations in any respect; (e) any failure, omission, delay
or lack on the part of Landlord to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power
or remedy conferred on Landlord under the Lease; (f) the voluntary or
involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets, marshalling of assets and liabilities,
receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors,
reorganization, arrangement, composition with creditors or adjustment of debts,
or other similar proceedings affecting Tenant or Guarantor or any of the assets
of either of them; (g) the release or discharge by operation of law of Tenant
from the payment, performance or discharge of any or all of the Guarantee
Obligations; (h) the release or discharge by operation of law of Guarantor from
any or all of the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty; or (i) the
invalidity or unenforceability of any or all of the Guaranteed
Obligations.  Guarantor acknowledges that Landlord would not enter
into the Lease Assignment without this Guaranty and that Landlord is relying on
this Guaranty.

     

    3. The
obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed
Obligations.  Guarantor agrees that Landlord shall have the right to
proceed against Guarantor directly and independently of Tenant.  A
separate action may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether or not
an action is brought against Tenant or Tenant is joined in any such
action.  Guarantor authorizes Landlord and Tenant, without notice to,
demand of, or consent from Guarantor and without releasing or affecting
Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, from time to time to amend, modify,
renew, extend, supplement or replace the Lease or the Guaranteed Obligations or
otherwise change the terms of the Lease or the Guaranteed Obligations, to take
and hold security for the Guaranteed Obligations, and to enforce, waive,
surrender, impair, compromise or release any such security or any or all of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any person or entity liable for any or all of the
Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor shall be and remain bound under this Guaranty
notwithstanding any such act or omission by Tenant or
Landlord.  Guarantor waives all rights under section 2845 of the
California Civil Code and waives the right to require Landlord to proceed
against Tenant, to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Landlord, or
to pursue any other remedy in Landlord’s power.  Landlord shall have
the right to exercise any right or remedy it may have against Tenant or any
security held by Landlord.  Guarantor waives all rights under section
2849 of the California Civil Code and waives the right, if any, to the benefit
of, or to direct the application of, any security held by
Landlord.  Guarantor waives (a) any defense arising out of any
alteration of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any defense arising out of the
absence, impairment or loss of any right of reimbursement or subrogation or
other right or remedy of Guarantor against Tenant or any security held by
Landlord, and (c) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other
defense of Tenant or by reason of the cessation or reduction from any cause
whatsoever of the liability of Tenant other than full payment, performance and
discharge of the Guaranteed Obligations. The cessation or reduction of the
liability of Tenant for any reason other than full payment, performance and
discharge of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not release or affect in any way
the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        xxxx

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    4. If Tenant
becomes insolvent or is adjudicated bankrupt or files a petition for
reorganization, arrangement, composition or similar relief under any present or
future provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or if such a petition is filed
against Tenant, or Tenant makes a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors, and in any such proceeding any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations
are terminated or rejected or any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations are
modified or abrogated, Guarantor agrees that Guarantor’s liability hereunder
shall not thereby be affected or modified and such liability shall continue in
full force and effect as if no such action or proceeding had occurred. This
Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if
any payment of the Guaranteed Obligations must be returned by Landlord upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Tenant, Guarantor, or otherwise, as
though such payment had not been made.

     

    5. Guarantor
assumes the responsibility for being and keeping Guarantor informed of the
financial condition of Tenant and of all other circumstances bearing upon the
risk of failure to pay, perform or discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations
which diligent inquiry would reveal, and Guarantor agrees that Landlord has no
duty to advise Guarantor of information known to Landlord regarding such
condition or any such circumstance.  Guarantor acknowledges that
repeated and successive demands may be made and payments or performance made
hereunder in response to such demands as and when, from time to time, Tenant
defaults in the payment, performance or discharge of the Guaranteed
Obligations.  Notwithstanding any such payment and performance
hereunder, this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply
to any and all subsequent defaults by Tenant.  It is not necessary for
Landlord to inquire into the capacity, authority or powers of Tenant or the
partners, directors, officers, employees or agents acting or purporting to act
on behalf of Tenant, and all of the Guaranteed Obligations made or created in
reliance upon the purported exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed
hereunder.  Guarantor hereby subordinates all indebtedness of Tenant
to Guarantor now or hereafter held by Guarantor to all indebtedness of Tenant to
Landlord.  If requested by Landlord, Guarantor shall collect, enforce
and receive all such indebtedness of Tenant to Guarantor as trustee for Landlord
and Guarantor shall pay such indebtedness to Landlord on account of the
indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord, but without otherwise reducing or affecting
in any manner the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        xxxxi

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    6. If Tenant
and Guarantor fail to pay, perform and discharge, as and when payment,
performance and discharge are due, all of the Guaranteed Obligations, Landlord
shall have the right, but no obligation, and without releasing Tenant or
Guarantor from any of the Guaranteed Obligations, to pay, perform and discharge
any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations on behalf of Tenant and
Guarantor.  Guarantor shall, on demand, pay to Landlord all sums
expended by Landlord in the payment, performance and discharge of the Guaranteed
Obligations, together with interest on all such sums from the date of
expenditure to the date all such sums are paid by Tenant or Guarantor to
Landlord at the maximum annual interest rate allowed by law for business loans
(not primarily for personal, family or household purposes) not exempt from the
usury law on such date of expenditure, or, if there is no such maximum annual
interest rate, at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per
annum.  Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance,
notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and
notices of acceptance of this Guaranty.  Guarantor agrees to pay all
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, which are incurred by
Landlord in the enforcement of this guaranty.  If any provision of
this Guaranty is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions of this Guaranty shall not be
affected.  This Guaranty may not be amended or modified in any respect
except by a written instrument signed by Guarantor and Landlord. As used in this
Guaranty, the singular shall include the plural.  This Guaranty shall
bind and inure to the benefit of Guarantor and Landlord and their respective
transferees, personal representatives, heirs, successors and
assigns.  This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California.

     

    IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, Guarantor has executed this Guaranty as of the date first
hereinabove written.

      AGREEMENT

      In view
of the foregoing recitals, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Sublessor and Sublessee agree as
follows:

       

      
        	
                1.        

              	
                Sublease of
      Premises.  For and in consideration of the covenants and
      agreements on the part of Sublessee to be paid, kept and performed as
      herein set forth, Sublessor does sublesase and demise unto Sublessee, and
      Sublessee hereby takes and hires from Sublessor, that certain portion of
      the leased facilities consisting of approximatey 23,297 square feet of the
      facilities outlined in red on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated
      herein by reference (“the Premises”), subject to the Master Lease and upon
      the terms and conditions hereafter
set.

              

      

       

      
        	
                2.        

              	
                Common Areas and
      Telephone System. During the terms of the lease, Sublessor grants
      to Sublessee a nonexclusive license for limited use of the lobby, hall,
      restrooms and cafeteria on the leased facilities totaling approximately
      5,732 square feet of the leased premises as outlined in red on Exhibit B
      attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (“the Common Areas”).
      Sublessor further grants to Sublessee a nonexexclusive license for limited
      use of the telephone system located on the leased facilities (“the
      telephone system”) – Sublessee hereby acknowledges that the telephone
      system is the property of Sublessee, and agrees to pay Sublessor for the
      use of the telephone system in an amount  equal to ninety-five
      percent (95%) of the telephone charges incurred during the term of the
      Sublease.  Sublessee’s obligation to pay Sublessor for
      Sublessee’s use of the telephone system shall survive the term of the
      Sublease.

              

      

       

      
        	
                3.        

              	
                Term.  The
      term of the Sublease shall commence on November 15, 1996 (“ the
      Commencement Date”), and shall continue on a month-to-month tenancy until
      Sublessee elects to terminate the Sublease by giving Sublessor at least
      thirty (30) days written notice, provided, however, that in no event shall
      the term of the Sublease extend past May 15, 1997 (“the Expiration
      Date”).  Sublessee shall give Sublessor at least thirty (30)days
      written notice of its intent to terminate the
      Sublease.  Sublessee agrees to vacate the Premises on or before
      the date of termination of the Sublease as set forth in its notice to
      Sublessor and that the Sublease shall terminate as described in said
      notice, provided, however, that , on or before December 31,1996, Sublessee
      may vacate that certain protion of the Premises consisting of
      approximately 5,000 square feet of office space outlined in red on Exhibit
      “C” attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (“the Executive
      Area”).  The parties agree that at such time that the Executive
      Area is vacated, Sublesse’s obligation to pay for the use of the telephone
      system shall be equitably adjusted.

                4.        

              	
                Possession.  The
      parties acknowledge that the leased facilities are presently in possession
      of the Sublessee under the terms of the Master Lease and shall remain in
      the possession of the Sublessee until the Commencement Date, at which time
      Sublessor will deliver possession of the Premises to
      Sublessee.  Sublessee shall accept the Premises in its “as-is”
      condition and acknowledges that no representations with respect to the
      condition of the Premises have been made by Sublessor to
      Sublessee.

              

      

       

      
        	
                5.        

              	
                Rent.  Sublessee
      shall pay to Sublessor, at such place sublessor may from time to time
      designate, as monthly rental a sum equal to forty-two percent (42%) of the
      monthly rental payable by Sublessor to Landlord under the Master Lease for
      the leased facilities, payable in advance starting on the Commencement
      Date on the 15th
      day of each month thereafter during the term of the
      Sublease.  Regardless of whether Sublessee ceases to occupy
      portion of the Premises during the term of the Sublease, Sublessee shall
      be obligated to pay the full rental amount set above until the Sublease
      terminates or expires, provided, however, that at such time as Sublessee
      vacates ten thousand  (10,000) square feet or more of the
      Premises, Sublessor shall adjust the monthly rental payable by Sublessee
      to Sublessor, one time only, as follows:  Commencing on the next
      day that rent under Sublease becomes due after Sublessee vacates the
      premises as described above, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor as monthly
      rental a sum equal to the product of 1) the monthly rental payable by
      Sublessor to Landlord under the Master Lease for the leased premises and
      2) the quotient of a) the remaining  number of square feet of
      the Premises being occupied by Sublessee and b) the square footage of the
      Common Areas.  Further, Sublessee shall pay twenty-five percent
      (25%) of all utility charges incurred with respect to the leased
      facilities during the term of the Sublease upon demand by
      Sublessor.  In addition, the parties agree to share common area
      maintenance and general operating  costs, including, but not
      limited, to maintenance of the HVAC system, janitorial services, and other
      such costs, on an equitable basis.

              

      

      

      
        	
                6.        

              	
                Late Charge and
      Interest on Rent in Default .  Sublessee acknowledges
      that the late payment by Sublessee of any monthly installment of rent will
      cause Sublessor to incur certain costs and expenses not contemplated under
      this Sublease, the exact amount, of which are extremely difficult or
      impractical to fix.  The costs and expenses will include,
      without limitation, the administration and collection costs and processing
      and accounting expenses.  Therefore, if any rent that is due and
      unpaid is not received by Sublessor from Sublessee within five (5) days of
      the date Sublessor gives Sublessee written notice that such rent is due.
      Sublessee shall immediately pay to Sublessor a late charge up to five
      percent (5%) of such delinquent rent, provided, however, that by giving
      Sublessee such written notice, Sublessor does not waive its rights against
      Sublessee under Code of Civil Procedure § 1161 et seq. to, inter alia,
      hold Sublessee in default and terminate the sublease by giving Sublessee
      three (3) days’ notice. Sublessor and Sublessee agree that this late
      charge represents a reasonable estimate of such costs and expenses and is
      fair compensation to Sublessor for its loss suffered by Sublessee’s
      failure to make timely payment.  In no event shall the provision
      for a late charge be deemed to grant Sublessee a grace period or extension
      of time within which to pay any rent or prevent Sublessor from exercising
      any right or remedy available to Sublessor upon Sublessee’s failure to pay
      any rent due under this sublease in a timely fashion, including the right
      to terminate Sublease.  If any rent remains delinquent for a
      period in excess of thirty (30) days then, in addition to such late charge
      Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor interest on any rent that is not paid
      when due at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum from the thirtieth
      (30th)
      day following the date such amount became due until
  paid.

                Escrow in lieu of
      Security Deposit.  Under
      the terms of Asset Purchase Agreement dated November 7, 1996, by and
      between Sublessee as Seller and Sublessor as Buyer (“the Asset Purchase
      Agreement”), Sublessee shall receive a promissory note in the amount of
      One Million Dollars and 00/100 ($1,000,000.00).  Sublessee
      agrees that, in lieu of a security deposit, Sublessor shall have the right
      to offset against said promissory note and any payments thereunder, up to
      the sum of Seventy Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($70,000.00) of said
      promissory note and any such payments thereunder, such amounts as are
      reasonably necessary for the following purposes: (i) to remedy any default
      by sublessee in the payment of rent; (ii) to repair damages to the
      premises caused by Sublessee; (iii) to clean the Premises upon termination
      of the Sublease; and (iv) to remedy any other default of Sublessee as
      permitted by law.

                Use of Premises and
      Restriction of Access to the Leased Facilities.  
      Sublessee’s use of the Premises shall be subject to those permitted uses
      and prohibitions against use as specified in Sections 3 and 9 of the
      Master Lease unless Sublessee shall have first obtained Sublessor’s prior
      written consent.  Sublessee’s use of the premises shall also
      include the use of certain facilities to be shared with Sublessor as set
      forth on Exhibit “B”.  Other than those portions of the leased
      facilities made available for Sublessee’s use as more particularly
      described on Exhibits “A” and “B”, the remainder of the leased facilities
      are considered to be and treated by Sublessor as security areas, and
      Sublessee hereby acknowledges that such areas are security areas and that
      it shall have no right of access to such
areas.

              

      

       

      
        	
                9.        

              	
                Insurance.  Sublessee
      shal pay forty-two percent (42%) of the cost of the insurance required to
      be maintained on the leased facilities under the provisions of Section 12
      of the Master Lease during the term of the Sublease upon demand by
      Sublessor.  In addition, Sublessee shall at its sole cost and
      expense procure and maintain in full force, with Chubb Group of Insurance
      Companies or such other insurance company of comparable quality that
      Sublessee may select, workers compensation insurance for its employees and
      public liability insurance naming Sublessor as an additional insured to
      protect against loss from liability for damages on account of personal
      injury, death or property damage occurring in, on or about the Premises,
      or resulting directly or indirectly from Sublessee or Sublessee’s agents’
      use  and occupancy under this Sblease.  The total
      coverage for personal injury and property damage insurance for the
      Premises and the Project under this Lease shall be an amount of at least
      Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) combined single limit, with a deductible
      no greater than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000).  This liability
      insurance shall be primary and not contributing to any insurance carried
      by Sublessor, and Sublessor’s insurance, if any, shall be in excess of
      this insurance.

                Taxes and Assessments.
      For the purpose of paying all the property taxes and assessments of
      every description assessed upon the leased facilities in accordance with
      Article 13 of the Master Lease, including any such taxes demanded or
      assessed after expiration or earlier termination of the term of the
      Sublease for any reassessments resulting from any leasehold improvements
      placed on the leased facilities prior to the Commencement Date Sublessee
      shall pay to Sublessor on a monthly basis, together with monthly rent, a
      sum equal to forty-two percent (42%) of one-twelth (1/12) of the amount
      payable for the tax year in which the month occurs by Sublessor to
      Landlord under the Master Lease for such real property taxes and
      assessments, to be placed in an impound account by Sublessor and paid by
      Sublessor against any real property taxes and assessments described
      above.  The parties acknowledge that Sublessee shall be
      responsible for all such real property taxes and assessments prior to the
      Commencement Date.

                Incorporation of
      Master Lease. To the extent not otherwise inconsistent with the
      agreements and understandings expressed in this Sublease or applicable
      only to the original parties to the Master Lease, the terms, provisions,
      covenants, and conditions of the Master Lease are hereby incorporated
      herein with the following
understandings:

              

      

       

      11.1 The term
“Landlord” or “Lessor” as used therein shall refer to Sublessor hereunder and
its successors and assigns, and the term “tenant” or “Lessee” as used therein
shall refer to Sublessee hereunder.

      11.2 In any case
where the Landlord reserves the right to enter the Premises,  said
right shall inure to the benefit of the Landlord as well as to
Sublessor.

      11.3 With respect to
work, services, repairs, repainting, and restoration or the performance of other
obligations required of the Landlord under the Master Lease, Sublessor’s sole
obligation with respect thereto shall be to request the same, on request in
writing by Sublessee, and to use reasonable efforts to obtain the same from the
Landlord.  Sublessor shall have no obligation to commence litigation
or arbitration nor to expend any money in connection therewith.

      11.4
Sublessee hereby expressly assumes and agrees to perform all of the terms,
obligations, covenants and conditions required by the Master Lease to be
performed by Sublessor but only with respect to the Premises and not to do,
suffer or permit anything to be done which would result in a default under the
Master Lease or cause the Master Lease  to be terminated or
forfeited.

      11.5
Sublessor shall maintain the Master Lease in full force and effect during the
entire term of this Sublease, subject however, to any earlier termination of the
Master Lease without the default of Sublessor.

      11.6
Sublessee shall not assign this Sublease or further sublease the Premises, in
whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Sublessor (which consent
Sublessor agrees to unreasonably withhold).  Any purported assignement
or Sublease in violation hereof shall be void as to Sublessor.

      11.7
Sublessee shall make no alterations, modifications, improvements to the Premises
without the prior written consent of Sublessor (which consent Sublessor agrees
not to unreasonable withhold).

      11.8  Sublessee shal not
create, permit or suffer any liens, encumbrances or charges upon the
Premises.

       

      
        	
                 12.

              	
                Delivery of Possession

      at the time of commencement of the Sublease, ordinary wear and tear
      excepted. If Sublessee fails to vacate and deliver possession of the
      Premises on the expiration or earlier termination of the term, Sublessee
      shall hold Sublessor harmless from all damages resulting from Sublessee’s
      failure to vacate and deliver possession of the Premises. If Sublessee,
      with Sublessor’s consent, remains in possession of the Premises after
      expiration of the term, said possession shall be deemed to be a
      month-to-month tenancy terminable as provided in Section 2 above. All
      provisions of this Sublease except for those pertaining to the term of the
      Sublease shall apply, provided that rent shall be One Hundred Fifty
      Percent (150%) of the rent in effect immediately prior to the expiration
      or termination of the term.

                  Enforcement of
      Rights.  Sublessor’s rights under the Master Lease may be
      enforced against the Landlord by Sublessee in its own name or in
      Sublessor’s name provided Sublessee advises Sublessor in writing at least
      ten (10) days before taking any action to enforce such rights. Sublessee
      agrees to reimburse Sublessor for any reasonable attorneys’ fees or other
      expenses incurred by Sublessor as a result of any such action.

                    Indemnification.  Sublessee
      shall indemnify and hold Sublessor and Landlord harmless from and against
      any and all claims arising from Sublessee’s use of the Premises, or from
      the conduct of Sublessee’s business or from any activity, work or things
      done, suffered or permitted by Sublessee in or about the premises or
      elsewhere, and shall further indemnify and hold Sublessor and Landlord
      harmless from and against any and all claims arising from any breach or
      default in the performance of the obligation on Sublessee’s part to be
      performed under the terms of this Sublease, or arising from any negligence
      of Sublease, or of Sublessee’s agents, contractors, or employees, and from
      and against all costs, attorneys’ fees, expenses and liabilities incurred
      in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought
      thereon, including but not limited to any harm or damages that may result
      from any breach or violation of the security area terms of Section 7; and
      in case any action or proceeding be brought against Sublessor or Landlord
      by reason of such claim, Sublessee, upon notice from Sublessor, shall
      defend  the same at Sublessee’s expense by counsel satisfactory
      to Sublessor.  Sublessee, as a material part of the
      consideration hereunder to Sublessor, hereby assumes all risk of damage to
      property or injury to persons, in, upon or about the Premises from any
      cause (except acts of Sublessor) and Sublessee waives all claims in
      respect thereof against Sublessor.

                      Attorney’s
      Fees.  In the event either party hereto causes an action,
      arbitration, or other proceeding against the other party arising out of or

    FOURTH
AMENDMENT TO LEASE

     

    

    

    THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT TO LEASE (this

California limited partnership (“Landlord”), and SUPERTEX, INC., a California
corporation (“Tenant”), with reference to the following facts and objectives:

    
A.
Landlord and Paradigm Technology, Inc. ("Paradigm") entered that certain Lease

California (the "Premises"). Such Lease was amended by that certain First
Amendment to Lease dated May 4, 1987, that certain Second Amendment to Lease
dated June 18, 1990, and that certain Third Amendment to Lease (the "Third
Amendment") dated December 21, 1995, all between Landlord and Paradigm. The
interest of the tenant under such Lease was assigned by Paradigm to Orbit
Semiconductor, Inc. ("Orbit") pursuant to that certain Assignment of Lease and
Consent to Assignment of Lease (the "First Assignment") dated November 15, 1996,
by Paradigm, Orbit and Landlord. The interest of the tenant under such Lease has
further been assigned by Orbit to Tenant as of the Effective Date pursuant to
that certain Lease Assignment Agreement (the "Second Assignment") dated as of
the Effective Date by Orbit, Tenant and Landlord. Such Lease, as so amended,
assigned and consented to, is referred to herein as the "Lease".

    

    B. Orbit
and Tenant entered that certain Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Assets dated
January 16,
1998 (the "Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which, among other things,
Orbit

    agreed to
assign the Lease to Tenant. As a condition to Tenant's obligation to consummate
the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (including, without
limitation, Tenant's execution and delivery of the Second Assignment), Tenant
required that Landlord agree further to amend the Lease, among other things, to
provide Tenant with an additional option to extend the term of the Lease for an
additional period of five (5) years and to grant Tenant a right , of first offer
to purchase the Premises described in the Lease. Landlord and Tenant now
mutually desire to amend the Lease on the terms and conditions of this Fourth
Amendment.

    

    NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained
herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree
as follows:

      Paragraph 26 of the Lease is hereby deleted, and the following language is
      substituted in lieu thereof:

    2.         Additional Option to
Extend.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that (i) the Lease currently
provides that the tenant thereunder has two (2)  options to extend the
term of the Lease, each for a period of five (5) years, (ii) under the Third
Amendment, the tenant exercised the first of those two options so as to extend
the term of the Lease through April 30, 2004, and (iii) Tenant therefore
currently has one (1) additional option to extend the term of the Lease for an
additional five (5)-year period from May 1, 2004 through April 30,
2009.  Landlord hereby grants Tenant one (1) additional option to extend the
term of the Lease for an additional five (5)-year period from May 1, 2009
through April 30, 2014, on the terms and conditions provided in Paragraph 37 of
the Lease.  Accordingly, Paragraph 37 of the Lease is hereby amended
by deleting the words “two (2)” from the second line thereof and substituting
the words “three (3)” in lieu thereof.

    3.           Right
of First Offer to Purchase.  The Lease is hereby amended by adding a
new Paragraph 46 as follows:

    

    46.           RIGHT
OF FIRST OFFER TO PURCHASE:  Landlord hereby grants Tenant the first
right, option and opportunity to purchase the Premises on the following terms
and conditions:

     

    A. If at
any time during the term of this Lease (including, without limitation, any
Renewal Term) Landlord desires to sell the Premises or any part thereof or
interest therein (such part or interest being referred to herein as the "Offered
Interest"), then before Landlord enters a binding agreement to sell the Offered
Interest, Landlord shall first offer to Tenant the opportunity to purchase the
Offered Interest by giving Tenant written notice of the terms and conditions on
which Landlord would be willing to sell the Offered Interest ("Landlord's
Offer").  Landlord's Offer shall include the following basic business
terms upon which Landlord is willing to sell the Offered Interest: (i) the sales
price, (ii) the amount and terms of any seller financing, (iii) the amount and
terms of any assumable third party financing, (iv) the state of title to be
transferred by Landlord, (v) the date for close of escrow, (vi) the allocation
of closing costs, (vii) the legal description of the Offered Interest, and
(viii) all other material business terms on which Landlord is willing to sell
the Offered Interest.
Tenant shall thereafter have the exclusive right to purchase the Offered
Interest on the terms and conditions stated in Landlord's Offer, which right
Tenant may exercise by giving
Landlord written notice of Tenant’s exercise of such right within thirty (30)
days following the date that Tenant receives Landlord’s Offer.  If
Tenant exercises such right,
thenTenant shall purchase and Landlord shall sell the Offered Interest on
the terms and conditions described in Landlord’s Offer.

      

      B. If Tenant does not, within such
thirty (30) day period, exercise Tenant's right to purchase the Offered Interest
on the terms and conditions of Landlord's Offer, then Landlord may sell the
Offered Interest to any third party for a purchase price not less than
ninety-five percent (95%) of the purchase price specified in Landlord's Offer
and otherwise on the same terms and conditions of Landlord's Offer, so long as
(i) Landlord enters a binding written agreement with such third party for the
sale of the Offered Interest within one hundred eighty (180) days after
Landlord's delivery to Tenant of Landlord's Offer, and (ii) Landlord conveys
title to the Offered Interest to such third party pursuant to such agreement
within ninety (90) days after such agreement for the sale of the Offered
Interest is fully executed by Landlord and such third-party
buyer.

    

    
      
         

      

      
        lix

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    C. If
Landlord has not entered a binding written agreement for the sale of
the

    Offered
Interest within one hundred eighty (180) days after Landlord's delivery to
Tenant of Landlord's Offer, or if Landlord has not conveyed title to the Offered
Interest to such third party buyer pursuant to such an agreement within ninety
(90) days after such agreement for the sale of the Offered Interest is fully
executed by Landlord and such third-party buyer, then, in either such event, any
subsequent offer or election by Landlord to sell the Premises or any part
thereof or any interest therein (including, without limitation, the Offered
Interest) shall be deemed a new determination to so do and shall be subject once
again to Tenant's first right, option and opportunity to purchase as described
in this Paragraph 46.

    

    4.           Memorandum.  The
Lease is further amended by adding a new Paragraph 47 as follows:

     

    47.
MEMORANDUM:  Promptly upon the request of either party, Landlord and
Tenant shall execute and deliver a Memorandum of Lease and Options to be
recorded in the Official Records of Santa Clara County, California, setting
forth Tenant’s rights under this Lease, including, without limitation, Tenant’s
options to extend the term of this Lease and Tenant’s right of first offer to
purchase the Premises.

     

    

    5.         No Further
Changes.  Except as expressly amended by this Fourth Amendment,
the Lease shall remain in full force and effect.  All capitalized
terms used, but not defined, in this Fourth Amendment shall have the meanings
ascribed to such terms in the Lease.

     

    IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have executed this Fourth Amendment to
Lease to be effective as of the Effective Date.
