                      EMPLOYMENT AND TERMINATION AGREEMENT
                      ------------------------------------

     This EMPLOYMENT AND TERMINATION AGREEMENT ("Agreement") made as of this __
day of August 2001, by and between Nobel Learning Communities, Inc. ("Company")
and John Frock ("Executive").

     WHEREAS, the Executive is presently serving as a senior executive of the
Company; and

     WHEREAS, the Company wishes to provide the Executive with certain current
life insurance and disability benefits, and with certain termination benefits in
the event that Executive's employment with the Company terminates for specified
reasons, described below in this Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby
agree as follows:

 1.  Term of Agreement.
     -----------------

     1.1  This Agreement shall be effective as of the date first set forth above
and shall remain effective until such date, if any, that the Company terminates
the Executive's employment for Cause.

     1.2  As used in this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean (i) the Executive's
conviction of or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a felony or the
incarceration of the Executive for a period of forty-five (45) consecutive days;
or (ii) the Executive's habitual drunkenness or illicit drug abuse.

 2.  Termination Event.  A Termination Event will exist upon the occurrence of
     -----------------
     any of the following events:

     2.1  The involuntary termination of Executive from employment, other than
for Cause;

     2.2  The death of Executive while employed by the Company; and

     2.3  The disability of Executive while employed by the Company, with
disability defined as the permanent inability to perform the essential duties of
the Executive's own occupation, with or without accommodation;

 3.  Rights Following A Termination Event.
     ------------------------------------

     3.1  If an event described in Section 2 above occurs ("Termination Event"),
the Company shall pay and provide the compensation and benefits set forth below:

          (a) The Company shall pay the Executive (or if deceased, his Estate)
     severance pay, in an amount equal to 2.99 times the Executive's "base
     amount," where the base amount is equal to the average of the Executive's
     W-2 earnings for

                                       1
<PAGE>

     the five (5) full calendar years (or such shorter time that the Executive
     was employed by the Company) preceding the Termination Event, divided and
     payable in fifty-two (52) equal, bi-weekly payments. Such payments shall
     begin on the first normal payroll date following the eighth business day
     after the Executive (or if deceased, the Executor of his Estate) signs the
     General Release provided for in section 3.2 of this Agreement.

          (b) In the event that the payments to the Executive under this
     Agreement are reasonably determined by the Company to constitute an "excess
     parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal
     Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended)("the Code"), the total of such payments
     shall be reduced to that amount expressed in present value which maximizes
     the aggregate present value of the payments to the Executive, without
     causing any payment to the Executive to be subject to taxation under
     Section 4999 of the Code or to be subject to loss of deduction to the
     Company under Section 280(G) of the Code.  Present value shall be
     determined in accordance with Section 280G(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue
     Code.

          (c) The Company shall continue to provide family health insurance
     coverage to Executive (or, in the event of his death, his legal spouse)
     under a Company-sponsored group health insurance plan, at the Company's
     cost and under the terms and conditions applicable to Executive and his
     dependents under such plan, for the remainder of Executive's life, or, in
     the event Executive predeceases his legal spouse, for the duration of his
     spouse's life.  In the event that the Company is unable under its then-
     current group health insurance plan to provide family health insurance
     coverage to Executive (or, in the event of his death, his legal spouse),
     the Company shall reimburse Executive (or, in the event of his death, his
     legal spouse) up to Twenty Four Thousand Dollars ($24,000) per year for the
     cost incurred by Executive (or, in the event of his death, his legal
     spouse) to obtain similar health insurance coverage.

          (d) The Company shall provide Executive with two full, annual
     scholarships per year to the Company school of Executive's choosing, to be
     used as directed by Executive, for the life of Executive.

          (e) The aggregate of payments and benefits provided under this section
     3.1 shall be offset by the aggregate of any payments or benefits owed to
     Executive under either the Nobel Learning Communities, Inc. Senior
     Executive Severance Pay Plan or Nobel Learning Communities, Inc. Executive
     Severance Pay Plan; provided, however, that the benefits provided under
                         -----------------
     this section 3.1 shall not be offset by any payments due or paid Executive
     under the Contingent Severance Agreement dated March 11, 1997, and the
     Noncompete Agreement, dated March 11, 1997.

     3.2  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1, the
Executive's right to receive any of the payments or benefits set forth in this
Section 3.1 shall be conditioned upon Executive's execution (or if deceased,
execution by the

                                       2
<PAGE>

Executor of his Estate) of a Release and Waiver of Claims in a form
substantially identical to the form attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement, and
upon full compliance with Section 4 of this Agreement.

 4.  Interference with the Company.
     -----------------------------

     4.1  The Executive will not, (i) for a period of three (3) years after
termination of his employment with the Company, directly or indirectly, (1)
engage, whether as principal, agent, investor, representative, stockholder
(other than as the holder of not more than five percent (5%) of the stock or
equity of any corporation the capital stock of which is publicly traded),
employee, consultant, volunteer or otherwise, with or without pay, in any
activity or business venture, anywhere within the continental United States,
which is competitive with the business of the Company as it exists on the date
of Executive's termination, (2) solicit or entice or endeavor to solicit or
entice away from the Company any director, officer, employee, agent or
consultant of the Company, either on his own account or for any person, firm,
corporation or other organization, whether or not the person solicited would
commit any breach of such person's contract of employment by reason of leaving
the Company's service, (3) solicit or entice or endeavor to solicit or entice
away any of the clients or customers of the Company, either on his own account
or for any other person, firm, corporation or organization, or (4) employ any
person not currently employed by Executive who was a director, officer or
employee of the Company, at any time during the two years preceding termination
of his employment with the Company, unless such person's employment was
terminated by the Company, or any person who is or may be likely to be in
possession of any Confidential Information.

     4.2  In exchange for the promises of Executive set forth in section 4.1,
the Company shall pay Executive a lump sum payment of Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000) on the 30th day following the beginning of each of the first, second,
and third years of the post-employment restrictions provided for in section 4.1.

     4.3  The Company may, in its sole discretion, choose to extend the
provisions of paragraph 4.1 beyond the three-year period, conditioned on the
agreement of the Company and Executive to a monetary payment for such extension.

     4.4  The parties hereto agree that if, in any proceeding, the court or
other authority shall refuse to enforce the covenants set forth in this Section
4.1 because such covenants cover too extensive a geographic area or too long a
period of time, any such covenant shall be deemed appropriately amended and
modified in keeping with the intention of the parties to the maximum extent
permitted by law.

 5.  Injunctive Relief.
     -----------------

     5.1  In the event that the Company seeks an injunction or similar equitable
relief for the breach or threatened breach of the provisions of Section 5.1 of
this Agreement, the Executive agrees that the Executive shall not use the
availability of arbitration in Section 12 hereof as grounds for the dismissal of
any such injunctive action.

 6.  Post-Employment Consulting Services.
     -----------------------------------

                                       3

Agreement; and

          (d) other terms as agreed between the Executive and the Company.

     6.2  The aggregate of payments received under a consulting contract entered
into pursuant to section 6.1 shall be offset by the aggregate of any payments
received by Executive under section 3.1(a), and the aggregate of any payments
received by Executive under either the Nobel Learning Communities, Inc. Senior
Executive Severance Pay Plan or Nobel Learning Communities, Inc. Executive
Severance Pay Plan; provided, however, that the benefits provided under this
                    -----------------
section 6.2 shall not be offset by any payments due or paid Executive under the
Contingent Severance Agreement dated March 11, 1997, and the Noncompete
Agreement, dated March 11, 1997.

 7.  Life Insurance
     ---------------

     7.1  The Company shall provide Executive, at the Company's expense, a
fully-paid life insurance policy, designed to provide a death benefit of Three
Hundred and Sixty Thousand Dollars ($360,000) to Executive's designated
beneficiary.

 8.  Successors and Assigns.
     ----------------------

     8.1  Assignment by the Company.  The Company shall require any successors
          -------------------------
(whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to
all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume
and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent
that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken
place.  As used in this Section, the "Company" shall mean the Company as
hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as
aforesaid which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and provisions of this
Agreement by operation of law and this Agreement shall be binding upon, and
inure to the benefit of, the Company, as so defined.

     8.2  Assignment by the Executive.  The Executive may not assign this
          ---------------------------
Agreement or any part thereof without the prior written consent of a majority of
the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that nothing herein
shall preclude one or more beneficiaries of the Executive from receiving any
amount that may

                                       4
<PAGE>

be payable following the occurrence of his legal incompetency or his death and
shall not preclude the legal representative of his estate from receiving such
amount or from assigning any right hereunder to the person or persons entitled
thereto under his will or, in the case of intestacy, to the person or persons
entitled thereto under the laws of intestacy applicable to his estate. The term
"beneficiaries", as used in this Agreement, shall mean a beneficiary or
beneficiaries so designated to receive any such amount or, if no beneficiary has
been so designated, the legal representative of the Executive (in the event of
his incompetency) or the Executive's estate.

 9.  Governing Law.
     -------------

     9.1  This Agreement shall be deemed a contract made under, and for all
purposes shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of
Delaware applicable to contracts to be performed entirely within such state.  In
the event that a court of any jurisdiction shall hold any of the provisions of
this Agreement to be wholly or partially unenforceable for any reason, such
determination shall not bar or in any way affect the Company's right to relief
as provided for herein in the courts of any other jurisdiction.  Such
provisions, as they relate to each jurisdiction, are, for this purpose,
severable into diverse and independent covenants.  Service of process on the
parties hereto at the addresses set forth herein shall be deemed adequate
service of such process.

 10. Entire Agreement.

     10.1 This Agreement contains all the understandings and representations
between the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all
undertakings and agreements, whether oral or in writing, previously entered into
by them.

 11. Amendment, Modification, Waiver.
     -------------------------------

     11.1 No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified unless such
amendment or modification is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive
and by a duly authorized representative of the Company other than the Executive.
Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no waiver by either
party of any breach by the other party of any condition or provision of this
Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of a
similar or dissimilar provision or condition at the same or any prior or
subsequent time, nor shall the failure of or delay by either party in exercising
any right, power or privilege hereunder operate as a waiver thereof to preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right,
power or privilege.

 12. Arbitration.
     -----------

     12.1 The Company and the Executive will attempt amicably to resolve
disagreements and disputes hereunder or in connection with the employment of
Executive by negotiation.  If the matter is not amicably resolved through

controversy, dispute or disagreement arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, or the breach thereof, will be subject to exclusive, final and
binding arbitration, which will be conducted in

modification to become a part hereof and treated as though originally set forth

Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions had never been set forth herein.

payment of taxes as permitted by law, provided it is satisfied in its sole
discretion that all requirements of law affecting its responsibilities to
withhold such taxes have been satisfied.

     4.  USE

     The Tenant covenants and agrees to use and occupy the Leased Premises for
only light manufacturing, warehouse and office, and further limited by any
variances previously granted, all zoning laws, Borough ordinances, State
statutes or federal legislation, if any, governing the Tenant's use. The parties
acknowledge that Tenant's current use is permitted.

     5.  REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

     Tenant shall take good care of the Premises and at its own cost and
expense, keep and maintain the interior and exterior of the Premises and the
parking lot, and shall make all ordinary repairs and replacements thereto
including all repairs and replacements to the HVAC system, (excluding structural
repairs and the roof), at any time during the term of this Lease as and when
needed to preserve them in good working order and condition, and the Tenant
shall repair, maintain and replace all mechanical and working parts used in
connection with the air conditioning, and shall keep the water pipes, sewer
pipes, lines and connections servicing the Premises exclusively free from ice
and other obstructions, and shall generally maintain the interior and exterior
of the Premises and shall, at the expiration of the term of this Lease, deliver
up the Premises in good order or condition, damages by the elements, fire and
other causes beyond the reasonable control of Tenant and ordinary wear and tear
excepted.

                                    Page 4
<PAGE>

     Tenant shall be liable for and shall make all necessary repairs to both the
interior and exterior of the building. In addition thereto, the Tenant agrees
to keep the driveway and parking lot in good repair and further agrees that
the said parking lot shall be used for parking only. The Tenant further agrees
to be liable for all roof repairs except if it becomes necessary to replace a
portion of, or the entire, roof by reason of a total collapse due to windstorm
or other external factors, in which event the Landlord agrees to be responsible
for the replacement.

     6.  UTILITIES

     (A) The Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, pay for all utilities
and utility service to the Premises, including but not limited to gas, heat,
electric, water, sewage and storm drainage, including all sewer use and service
charges. The Landlord shall not be responsible for, or incur any liability as a
result of, interruption of said utility service, unless caused by any Landlord,
or its employees or agents.

     (B) The Tenant shall be responsible for, and at its own cost and expense,
make such deposit as may be required by utility companies for utility service to
the Premises including standby sprinkler charges, if any.

     (C) The Landlord represents to the Tenant that gas, heat, electric, water,
sewer and storm drain utilities are available and connected at the building on
the Premises.

                                    Page 5
<PAGE>

     (D) The Tenant shall have the option, subject to the reasonable approval of
the Landlord, to make such changes in the building as recommended by any of the
utility companies or private contractors to lower the cost of such utility.

     7.  TAXES

     (A) The Tenant, in addition to the rent reserved, shall pay all real
property taxes which may be charged, imposed or assessed upon or in relation to
the Demised Premises, including both land, building or other site improvements,
during the term of the within Lease. As soon as Landlord receives tax bills,
Landlord shall forward such tax bills to Tenant for payment thereof. Said
payments shall be made by the Tenant directly to the taxing authorities, as
required by law. In the event Tenant fails to pay taxes, and Landlord is
therefore compelled to do so, Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for the
payment of the taxes or assessments, which are to be considered as additional
rent, no later than five (5) days after Landlord has advised Tenant of the
payment. Since Tenant is continuing in possession, there is no need to apportion
the first years' taxes. However, taxes for the last year of the term shall be
apportioned.

     (B) With respect to the payment of assessments for capital improvements
off-site, such as assessments for sewers, roadways, sidewalks, curbing, drainage
or the like, Tenant shall only be responsible for the payment of that portion of
the assessment as

                                    Page 6
<PAGE>

expressed by a fraction, the numerator of is the number of years remaining in
the Term and the denominator of which is the useful life (in years) of the
capital improvement as determined by generally accepted accounting principles.
In the event Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a new lease after the
expiration of this term, then Tenant shall pay the additional portion of the
assessment in accordance with the foregoing.

     (C) Landlord agrees that it shall deliver true copies of all such
assessments or other notices within five (5) days of their receipt by Landlord,
but failure to deliver same timely shall not be reason for Tenant to avoid the
obligation for payment of same.

     (D) Tenant shall evidence payment of the aforesaid taxes on or before their
due date by submitting to Landlord copies of the tax bills marked "paid."

     (E) In the event Landlord obtains a mortgage on the Premises and its
mortgage company pays taxes directly, Tenant will promptly reimburse Landlord
for the taxes paid by the Landlord upon proof of payment by the mortgage company
to the taxing authority.

     (F) Tenant shall have the right to appeal any tax or special assessment
provided Tenant shall have first notified Landlord of its intention no less than
thirty (30) days prior to April of each year (the filing deadline date). In the
event Tenant undertakes such appeal, same shall be at Tenant's sole cost and
expense, including, but not limited to, legal fees and appraisal fees. Any

                                    Page 7
<PAGE>

refund issued by the taxing authority and paid to Landlord shall be promptly
paid to Tenant, as long as taxes are current.

     (G) Tenant is not responsible for payment of any estate, income, franchise
or transfer taxes arising out of its occupation of the Premises under this
Lease.

     8.  INSURANCE

     The Landlord will not be responsible for the loss or damage to property or
injury to persons, occurring in or about the Demised Premises, by reason of any
existing or future condition, defect, matter or thing in said Demised Premises
or the property of which the Demised Premises is a part unless due to negligence
or willful conduct of Landlord, its agents or employees, or for the acts,
omissions or negligence of other persons or Tenants in and about the said
Demised Premises. In furtherance thereof, the Tenant shall carry, at its own
expense, public liability insurance, in a minimum amount of Two Million
($2,000,000.) Dollars for each person injured and Five Million ($5,000,000.)
Dollars for any one accident and Two Million ($2,000,000.) Dollars for property
damage in any one accident which shall include the Landlord as a named insured.
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the policy of said insurance and upon default
thereof, the Landlord may procure the same and Tenant shall pay therefor as
additional rent hereunder upon demand.

     The Tenant shall procure and pay for building fire insurance with extended
coverage in the amount of Two Million Five Hundred

                                    Page 8
<PAGE>

($2,500,000.) Dollars and deliver a certified duplicate copy of the original
policy to the Landlord. The Landlord may obtain such insurance if the Tenant
fails to do so and charge the cost to Tenant as additional rent.

     If for any reason it shall become impossible for Tenant to obtain fire or
hazard insurance on the buildings and improvements in the amount required and
written by companies duly authorized to issue such insurance in the State of New
Jersey, the Landlord may, ten (10) days after written notice is delivered to the
Tenant, terminate this Lease.

     Tenant will not, nor will Tenant permit, undertenants or other persons to
do anything in said Premises, or bring anything into said Premises, or permit
anything to be brought into said Premises or to be kept therein, which will in
any way increase the rate of fire insurance on said Premises, or use the
Premises or any part thereof, nor suffer or permit their use for any business or
purpose which would cause an increase in the rate of fire insurance on said
building, and the Tenant agrees to pay on demand any such increase.

     Landlord and Tenant hereby each release the other party, and anyone
claiming through or under the other party by way of subrogation, or otherwise,
from any and all liability for any loss of or damage to property, whether caused
by the negligence or fault of the other party. In addition, Landlord and Tenant
shall cause each and every insurance policy carried by them, insuring the

                                    Page 9
<PAGE>

premises, land or the contents thereof, to be written to permit the aforesaid
waiver of all rights of recovery by way of subrogation against the other party
hereto in connection with any loss or damage covered by the policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained in this Lease to the
contrary, any release and waiver of claims shall not be operative in any case
where the effect of such release and/or waiver is to invalidate insurance
coverage.

     9.  SIGNS

     Tenant may place signs on the land and buildings of the Demised Premises,
provided, however, that such signs shall not create a hazard to any person or
property and shall comply in every way with all applicable governmental
regulations and that Tenant shall obtain, at its own expense, all necessary
permits for the erection or installation of said signs.

     10. FIXTURES

     Tenant is given the right and privilege of installing and removing
property, equipment and fixtures in the Leased Premises during the term of the
Lease; it being understood and agreed, however, that in the event of the
termination or expiration of this Lease, if the Tenant fails to remove any such
property, equipment, fixtures or other property as of the termination of the
Lease, in that event and provided the Landlord has given Tenant at least seven
(7) days' written notice of Landlord's intent to treat said

                                    Page 10
<PAGE>

property as abandoned, the said property, equipment and fixtures shall be deemed
abandoned by the said Tenant and shall become the property of the Landlord.

     11.  ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

     Tenant shall not assign this Agreement or underlet or underlease the
Premises or any part thereof without the prior consent of the Landlord, which
consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned provided,
however, that the Landlord need not consent to any such assignment unless Tenant
shall deliver to the Landlord in a form reasonably acceptable to the Landlord:
(1) the assumption by the assignee of all covenants and obligations under this
Lease as provided and, further, that Tenant shall remain liable under all of
the terms of this lease for the duration of the term; and (2) financial
statements tending to show that proposed assignee is capable of compliance with
all the financial and other terms of this Agreement. Landlord shall not be
required to consent to a sublease of part or all of the Premises unless Tenant
shall execute and deliver to Landlord, in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Landlord, an assignment of all rents to become due to Tenant under said
sublease, which assignment shall be in the form of security to Landlord for the
performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease.

     In the event that the assignment or sublease of the Premises takes place in
connection with a sale of Tenant's business and the ceasing of Tenant's
operations and/or the dissolution of its

                                    Page 11
<PAGE>

corporate charter, Landlord shall consent to the assignment or sublease,
providing that the following conditions are satisfied:

     (1)  If the net worth, at the time of the proposed assignment or proposed
     sublease, of the proposed subtenant or proposed assignee, is less than the
     Tenant's net worth at the time of the proposed assignment or proposed
     sublease, as determined by Tenant's and the proposed assignee's or proposed
     sublessee's most recent annual audited financial statements, then the
     proposed subtenant or proposed assignee shall provide Landlord with the
     following:

          (a)  an irrevocable, stand-by letter of credit in the original
          face amount of one year's rent (based on the amount of rent in the
          year in which the assignment or sublease is made), hereinafter the
          "Letter of Credit," as collateral security for the payment of any and
          all rent payable by the assignee or subtenant under the Lease. The
          letter of Credit shall be for a term of eighteen (18) months. Upon a
          default in payment of rent by the assignee or sublessee, and upon ten
          days' written notice to the assignee or subtenant, all or part of the
          Letter of Credit may, at Landlord's

                                    Page 12
<PAGE>

          option, be drawn upon, in whole or in part, applied on account of the
          default of the assignee or subtenant's failure to pay rent. At the end
          of said eighteen (18) -month period, the Letter of Credit or any
          balance thereof shall be returned to the subtenant or assignee; and

          (b)  an amount equal to two (2) months' rent, at such monthly rental
          rate as exists at the date of the assignment or sublease, which amount
          shall be added to the security deposit required in section 24 herein
          and shall be subject to the provisions set forth therein.

     (2)  In the event the proposed assignee's or proposed subtenant's net
     worth, at the time of the proposed assignment or proposed sublease, is
     equal to or greater than the Tenant's net worth, as determined at the time
     and in the manner set forth hereinabove in subparagraph 11(1), the proposed
     assignee or proposed subtenant shall only be required to provide the
     Landlord with an amount equal to two (2) months' rent, at such monthly
     rental rate as exists at the date of the assignment or sublease, which
     amount shall be added to the security deposit required in paragraph 24
     herein and shall be subject to the provisions set forth therein.

                                    Page 13
<PAGE>

     12.  DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

     (A)  In case during the term hereof the Leased Premises or other portions
of the building located on the Leased Premises shall be partially damaged (as
distinguished from "substantially damaged," as that term is hereinafter defined)
by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall forthwith proceed to repair such
damage and restore the Leased Premises to substantially its condition at the
time of such damage, consistent with the then applicable codes. In the event
that the damage is caused by Tenant, its operations, invitees, agents,
employees, contractors or other third parties conducting business with or for
Tenant, the Tenant shall be responsible to repair the property.

     (B)  In case during the term hereof the Leased Premises shall be
substantially damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, as opposed to
partial damage caused by Tenant, as set forth in (a) hereof, either party shall
have the option to terminate the Lease by written notice thereof to the other
not more than sixty (60) days from the date of the occurrence. In the event the
Lease is not so terminated it shall remain in full force and effect and the
Landlord shall, proceeding with all reasonable dispatch, repair or rebuild the
Leased Premises to substantially its condition at the time of such damage or
destruction, consistent with then applicable codes, and so that the Tenant will
be able to conduct its business at the Leased Premises in substantially its same
manner as it is as

                                    Page 14
<PAGE>

of the date of this Lease.

     (C)  In the event the provisions of (a) and (b) of this Article 12 shall
become applicable, the rent and all other charges specified in this Lease, shall
be abated or reduced proportionately during any period in which, by reason of
such damage or destruction, there is interference with the operation of the
business of the Tenant in the Leased Premises, having regard to the extent to
which Tenant may be required to discontinue its business in the Leased Premises,
and such abatement or reduction shall continue for the period commencing with
such destruction or damage and ending with the completion by Landlord of such
work of repair and/or reconstruction as Landlord is obligated to do. Any rent or
other charges paid in advance by Tenant shall be promptly refunded by Landlord.
Landlord shall be limited to the amount paid by the insurance carrier under the
rent insurance provision of the policy.

     (D)  The terms "substantially damaged" and "substantial damage" as used in
this Article 12 shall have reference to damage of such a character as cannot
reasonably be expected to be repaired or the premises restored within one
hundred eighty (180) days. The determination of whether or not there has been
substantial damage shall be made within ten (10) days of the date of the
occurrence of the casualty.

     13.  CONDEMNATION

     (A)  If the whole of the Premises shall be taken under the

                                    Page 15
<PAGE>

exercise of the power of condemnation or eminent domain, then this Lease shall
automatically terminate on the date that title or possession is taken by the
condemner, whichever occurs first, and the rent shall be apportioned as of said
date. If any part of the Premises be so taken, so as to materially restrict,
limit or adversely affect the use, occupancy or enjoyment of Tenant, then Tenant
shall have the option to terminate this Lease by thirty (30) days' written
notice to the Landlord, which notice must be given within ninety (90) days after
possession or title on the partial taking is obtained by condemner, and the rent
shall be apportioned on the effective date of termination of the Lease by
Tenant.

     (B)  If any part of the Premises shall be so taken and this Lease shall not
terminate or be terminated under the provisions of subparagraph (a) hereof, then
the rental shall be equitably apportioned according to the square footage of the
Premises, and the Landlord shall, at its own cost and expense, restore the
remaining portion of the Premises to the extent necessary to render it
reasonably suitable for the purposes for which it was leased, shall provide
finished parking facilities equivalent to those originally furnished to Tenant,
and shall make all repairs to the building located on the Premises to the extent
necessary to constitute the building of a complete architectural unit, provided
however, that if the amount of the award received by Landlord is not adequate to
cover the cost of such restoration or repairing,

                                    Page 16
<PAGE>

Landlord may elect by written notice to Tenant to that effect to terminate this
Lease.

     (C)  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Lease, Tenant's use, occupancy
or enjoyment of the Premises will be deemed materially restricted if any portion
of the building or ground area of sufficient size to deprive Tenant of Twenty
Percent (20%) or more of the available parking area on site at the commencement
of the term shall be taken under the exercise of the power of condemnation or
eminent domain.

     (D)  All compensation awarded or paid upon such total or partial taking of
the Premises shall belong to and be the property of the Landlord without any
participation by the Tenant; provided, however, that nothing contained herein
shall be construed to preclude the Tenant, as permitted by law, from prosecuting
any claim directly against the condemning authority in such condemnation
proceedings for loss of business, relocation costs or depreciation to, damage
to, or cost of removal of, or for the value of stock, trade fixtures, furniture
and other personal property belonging to Tenant.

     14.  INSPECTION BY LANDLORD AND RIGHT TO MARKET

     Landlord's agents, and other representatives, shall have the right to enter
into and upon said Premises, or any part thereof, at all reasonable hours during
a normal workday for the purpose of examining same, or making such repairs or
alterations therein as

                                    Page 17
<PAGE>

may be necessary for the safety and preservation thereof, without unduly
disturbing the operations of the Tenant. Non-emergency entrance by the Landlord
shall take place only after notice is given twenty-four (24) hours in advance.

     Tenant also agrees to permit the Landlord or his Agents to show the
Premises to persons wishing to hire or purchase the same; and the Tenant further
agrees that on and after one year next preceding the expiration of the term
hereby granted, the Landlord or his Agents shall have the right to place notices
on the front of said Premises, or any part thereof, offering the Premises "To
Let" Or "For Sale" and the Tenant hereby agrees to permit the same to remain
thereon without hindrance or molestation. Tenant shall allow Landlord or its
agents to enter the Premises at reasonable times during business hours, on
reasonable notice, in order to show the Premises to prospective buyers, at any
time during the lease term.

     15.  RIGHT OF ENTRY

     The Tenant shall, without any previous demand therefor, pay to the Landlord
or its agent the said rent at the times and in the manner above provided. In the
event of non-payment of said rent or any installment thereof and the expiration
of any applicable notice and cure periods at the times and in the manner herein
provided, or if the Tenant shall be dispossessed for non-payment of rent, or if
the Leased Premises shall be deserted or vacated, or if the Tenant

                                    Page 18
<PAGE>

defaults in any other covenant or condition of this Lease and such default
continues for twenty (20) days after notice to the Tenant, the Landlord or its
agent shall have the right to and may enter the said Premises as the agent of
the Tenant, either by force or otherwise, without being liable for any
prosecution or damages therefor, and may re-let the Premises as the agent of the
Tenant, and receive the rent therefor, upon such terms as shall be satisfactory
to the Landlord, and all rights of the Tenant to repossess the Premises under
this Lease shall be forfeited. Such re-entry by the Landlord shall not operate
to release the Tenant from any rent to be paid or covenants to be performed
hereunder during the full term of this Lease. For the purpose of re-letting, the
Landlord shall be authorized to make necessary to place the same in good order
and condition. The Tenant shall be liable to the Landlord for the cost of such
repairs or alterations, and all reasonable expenses of such re-letting. If the
sum realized or to be realized from the re-letting is insufficient to satisfy
the monthly or term rent provided in this Lease, the Landlord, at its option,
may require the Tenant to pay such deficiency month by month, or may hold the
Tenant in advance for the entire deficiency to be realized during the term of
the re-letting. The Tenant shall not be entitled to any surplus accruing as a
result of the re-letting. The Landlord is hereby granted a lien, in addition to
any statutory lien or right to distrain that may exist, on all personal

                                    Page 19
<PAGE>

property of the Tenant in or upon the Demised Premises, to secure payment of the
rent and performance of the covenants and conditions of this Lease. The Landlord
shall have the right, as agent of the Tenant, to take possession of any
furniture, fixtures or other personal property of the Tenant found in or about
the Premises, and sell the same at public or private sale and to apply the
proceeds thereof to the payment of any monies becoming due under this Lease, the
Tenant hereby waiving the benefit of all laws exempting property from execution,
levy and sale on distress or judgment. The Tenant agrees to pay, as additional
rent, all reasonable attorney's fees and other reasonable expenses incurred by
the Landlord in enforcing any of the obligations under this Lease.

     (A)  If at any time, after the commencement of the term of this Lease,
there shall be filed by or against Tenant in any court pursuant to any statute
either of the United States or of any State a petition in bankruptcy or
insolvency or for reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee
of all or a portion of Tenant's property, and within thirty (30) days thereof
Tenant fails to secure a discharge of any of the above, or if Tenant makes an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, this Lease shall ipso facto be canceled
and terminated and in which event neither Tenant nor any person claiming through
or under Tenant or by virtue of any statute or of an order of any court shall be
entitled to possession of the Demised Premises and Landlord, in addition to the
other

                                    Page 20
<PAGE>

rights and remedies given by (c) hereby and by virtue of any other provision
herein or elsewhere in this Lease contained or by virtue of any statute or rule
of law, may retain as liquidated damages any rent, security, deposit of moneys
received by them from Tenant or others in behalf of Tenant upon the execution
hereof.

     (B)  If at any time after the commencement of this Lease, or if at any time
during the term hereby demised, there shall be filed by or against Tenant in any
court pursuant to any statute either of the United States or of any State a
petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or a portion of Tenant's property,
and within thirty (30) days thereof Tenant fails to secure a discharge of any
of the above, or if Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors,
neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant by virtue of any
statute or of an order of any court shall be entitled to possession or to remain
in possession of the Demised Premises but shall forthwith quit and surrender the
Premises and Landlord, in addition to the other rights and remedies Landlord
has by virtue of any other provision herein or elsewhere in this Lease
contained, or by virtue of any statute or rule of law, may retain as liquidated
damages any rent, security deposit, or monies received by them from Tenant or
others in behalf of Tenant.

     (C)  It is stipulated and agreed that in the event of the

                                    Page 21
<PAGE>

termination of this Lease pursuant to (a) or (b) Landlord shall forthwith,
notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease to the contrary, be entitled
to recover from Tenant as and for liquidated damages an amount equal to the
difference between the rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of the
term demised and the then fair and reasonable rental value of the Demised
Premises for the same period.

     If such Premises or any part thereof be re-let by the Landlord for the
unexpired term of said Lease or any part thereof, before presentation of proof
of such liquidated damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of
rent reserved upon such re-letting shall be prima facie to be the fair and
reasonable rental value for the part or the whole of the Premises so re-let
during the term of the re-letting. Nothing herein contained shall limit or
prejudice the right of the Landlord to prove for and obtain as liquidated
damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed
by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the
proceedings, in which such damages are to be proved, whether or not such amount
be greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the difference referred to
above.

     Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Lease to the contrary, in the
event that this Lease shall terminate by reason of re-entry of the Landlord
under the terms and conditions contained in this Lease, or by ejectment of the
Tenant by summary proceedings

                                    Page 22
<PAGE>

or otherwise, or in the event of a default by Tenant, or upon termination of the
Lease by Landlord pursuant to the terms herein, or in the event Tenant vacates
the Premises, Landlord shall exercise reasonable efforts to re-let the Premises
or any part thereof and, in connection therewith, use such reasonable efforts to
collect any and all rent due from such re-letting Tenant during the re-letting
period.

     In the event the Premises, or any part thereof, is re-let by the Landlord,
any amounts due the Landlord by Tenant hereunder shall be reduced by the
proceeds of any re-letting by Landlord after deducting all costs directly
incident thereto. In the event Landlord shall, after default or breach by
Tenant, recover the amounts it may receive from Tenant hereunder, and it shall
be determined at the expiration of the term of this Lease (taken without regard
to early termination for default) that a credit is due Tenant because the net
proceeds of re-letting, as aforesaid, plus amounts paid to Landlord by Tenant,
exceed the aggregate of rents and other charges accrued in favor of Landlord to
the end of said term pursuant to the terms herein, Landlord shall refund such
excess to Tenant, without interest, promptly after such determination.

     Nothing contained in this Lease shall permit Landlord to recover from
Tenant more than the Fixed Rent as set forth in this Lease with the exception of
the costs of remediation incurred by

                                    Page 23
<PAGE>

Landlord, and/or other damages allowed, as set forth in paragraph 26 herein.

any such failure in (1) or (2) above shall continue for a period of fifteen (15)
days, and after five days' written notice to Tenant, the Tenant shall be in
default hereunder. In such event, the Landlord may institute legal proceedings
to dispossess the Tenant; or

     (B) If the Tenant shall default under any other provisions of this Lease
other than such requiring monetary payments, the Tenant shall cure same within
thirty (30) days of notice from the Landlord, or if such condition cannot be
corrected within thirty (30) days despite diligent efforts, Tenant shall
complete said curing within a reasonable time, failure to do so shall
constitute a default hereunder;

     (C) A default shall occur if the Tenant fails to comply materially with any
of the statutes, ordinances, rules, orders, regulations and requirements of the
federal, state and city government required to be complied with by Tenant
pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and such failure to comply is not

within thirty (30) days after written notice of such violation is given by
Landlord, or if the Tenant files a petition in bankruptcy or arrangement, or be
adjudicated a bankrupt or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or
take advantage of any insolvency act, and such actions are not rescinded within
sixty (60) days. The Landlord may, at any time after the occurrence of a default
and the expiration of the applicable notice and cure periods, terminate this
Lease and the term thereof, and upon the giving of such written notice, the
Lease and the term thereof shall terminate, expire and come to an end on the
date of the notice as if said date were the date originally fixed in this Lease
for the termination or expiration thereof.

     (D) In the event Tenant shall fail to pay rent and/or additional rent when
due, and the applicable cure period has expired then, in addition to the
Landlord's rights as contained in this Article 16, a late fee shall be imposed
in the amount of five (5%) percent of the payment which is late, as set forth in
paragraph 16(A).

     (E) In the event of the occurrence of an event of default by Landlord
hereunder, Tenant, may, at its sole discretion exercise any or all of the
remedies as may be available to Tenant at law or in equity.

                                    Page 30
<PAGE>

     (a) The Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Material (as
         hereinafter defined) to be brought upon, kept, or used in or about the
         Premises by the Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees,
         in material violation of Applicable Environmental Laws. If the presence
         of Hazardous Material in or about the Premises caused or permitted by
         the Tenant results in the material violation of any Applicable
         Environmental Law and/or subjects the Premises to any Remedial
         Obligations (as hereinafter defined) thereunder, the Tenant shall be
         liable to the Landlord for all damage(s) resulting therefrom; and shall
         indemnify, defend and hold the Landlord harmless from any and all
         claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, liabilities or
         losses which arise during or after the Term as a result of such
         violation. This indemnification of the Landlord by the Tenant shall
         include, without limitation, (i) reasonabie sums paid in settlement of
         claims; (ii) reasonable attorney's fees, consultant fees and expert
         fees; (iii) necessary costs incurred in connection with any study or
         investigation of site conditions, cleanup, remediation, removal or
         restoration work required by any federal, state or local governmental
         agency or political subdivision (collectively, "Remedial Obligations")

                                    Page 31
<PAGE>

         because of Hazardous Material present in the soil or ground water on or
         under the Building or property; (iv) penalties, fines and/or other
         similar costs arising from any failure by the Tenant to comply with the
         terms of any Applicable Environmental Law or order issued by any
         federal, state or municipal department or agency having regulatory
         authority over environmental matters; and (v) removal of any lien
         imposed under such Applicable Environmental Laws, or under any other
         federal or state statute or local ordinance imposing a lien for costs
         in performing Remedial Obligations resulting from the existence of any
         Hazardous Material, provided, however, that this indemnity shall not
         include and Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord for (w) any
         diminution in value of the Premises; (x) damages for the loss or
         restriction on use of rentable or usable space or of any amenity of the
         Premises; (y) damages arising from any adverse impact on the marketing
         of space; or (z) any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord prior to
         the date hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, if the presence of any
         Hazardous Material in or about the Premises caused or permitted by the
         Tenant either prior to or during the Term of this Lease creates any
         Remedial Obligations with respect to the Premises, the Tenant shall
         promptly take all actions

                                    Page 32
<PAGE>

         at its sole expense as are necessary to satisfy such Obligations.

               Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant acknowledges that during
         Tenant's prior use and occupancy of the Premises, it undertook certain
         industrial activities which have resulted in water and soil
         contamination of the Premises.

               In the event Tenant fails to remediate the Premises in accordance
         with this Paragraph 26, Landlord shall have all rights against Tenant,
         including, but not limited to, seeking damages for diminution in value
         of the Premises; damages for loss or restriction on use of rentable or
         useable space; and/or damages for loss of rent.

               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (a)
         Tenant's duties with respect to indemnification, Remedial Obligations
         and compliance with Applicable Environmental Laws shall be deemed
         satisfied upon Tenant's compliance with the provisions of Paragraph 26E
         below provided, however, that Tenant retains responsibility for natural
         resources damages, if any, to the extent they are, or have been caused
         by, Tenant; (b) Tenant's obligations with respect to any other claims
         allegedly relating to the presence of Hazardous Materials, including
         third party claims, shall be limited

                                    Page 33
<PAGE>

         to those claims asserted by Landlord against Tenant within five (5)
         years after the date of issuance of an NFA (as herein defined) for
         soils, or a conditional NFA for groundwater, depending upon whether the
         claim relates to soil or groundwater contamination; (c) Tenant shall
         not be liable for any losses or damages which may be caused by the
         imposition of institutional or engineering controls on or with respect
         to the Premises in connection with Remediation; (d) Landlord shall not
         settle any claims or incur any costs or expenses, except at Landlord's
         sole expense, so long as Tenant is complying with its obligations under
         this Paragraph 26; and (e) Landlord's rights and remedies under this
         Paragraph 26 shall constitute Landlord's sole and exclusive remedies
         with respect to environmental matters.

               Tenant shall not be responsible for any and all claims,
         judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, liabilities or losses
         which arise during or after the Term as a result of the presence of
         Hazardous Materials which either pre-dated Tenant's occupancy of the
         Premises or which have migrated to the Premises from an off-site
         source.

      agency overseeing the cleanup of the Premises and said agency's response
