     THIS LEASE, which is effective as of the date set forth in the Basic Lease
Information, is entered into by Landlord and Tenant, as set forth in the Basic
Lease Information. Terms which are capitalized in this Lease and are not
expressly defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Basic Lease
Information.

1. PREMISES. Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord, the
Premises described in the Basic Lease Information, which Premises are more
particularly shown on Exhibit A, together with the right in common to use the
Common Areas of the Building and the land (as described on Exhibit A-1) upon
which the Building is located (the "Property").The Common Areas shall mean the
areas and facilities within the Building and the Property provided and
designated by Landlord for the general use, convenience or benefit of Tenant and
other tenants and occupants of the Building, (including, without limitation,
common entrances and hallways, restrooms, trash disposal facilities, janitorial,
telephone and electrical closets and landscaping walks, the parking garage,
other unreserved parking areas, and drives).

     Subject to prior rights of existing tenants as more particularly set forth
on Exhibit E, Tenant shall have a right of first offer to lease additional
adjacent space on the third floor of the building in which the Premises are
located on the same terms as herein provided, except that any Tenant Improvement
allowance shall be prorated at the rate of $2.50 per rentable square foot for
each full lease year of the remaining portion of the Initial Term of this Lease.
Said right of first offer shall be exercised by Tenant's written notice of its
intent to enter negotiations, which notice shall be sent to Landlord not more
than ten (10) days following receipt of Landlord's written notice to Tenant of
the availability of such space. In furtherance of the intention of this
provision, Landlord shall have a duty to give notice of the availability of such
space whenever the same shall become available during the term of the Lease.

2. TERM. The Lease Term shall commence on the Commencement Date (as set forth in
the Basic Lease Information) and, unless terminated on an earlier date in
accordance with the terms of this Lease, shall extend for the period (i.e.,
Lease Term) specified in the Basic Lease Information, together with the Option
Period as hereinafter defined if the Tenant has properly exercised its option to
extent the Lease Term. For purposes of determining the Commencement Date, the
term "Substantial Completion" shall mean the date on which: (i)Landlord's work
is "complete" as defined in the Workletter attached hereto as Exhibit B-1, (ii)
Landlord has delivered a certificate of occupancy for the Premises to the
Tenant, and (iii) Landlord delivers exclusive possession of the Premises in good
and operating condition. Any delay in Substantial Completion due to Tenant
delays shall not affect the determination of the Commencement Date, provided,
however, Tenant shall be obligated to reimburse Landlord for lost Base Rent for
each day of such delay. Payment of any lost Base Rent shall be made to Landlord
within ten (10) business days of billing.

     Provided Tenant has delivered to Landlord evidence of the insurance
required under subsection 13(b) below and all necessary permits, Tenant shall
have the right to enter upon the Premises during the 14 day period prior to the
Commencement Date for the purpose of furniture setup, phone system installation,
data cabling, and the like. Any such entry shall be made in a manner which will
not interfere with the performance of Landlord's Work, and upon any reasonable
condition imposed by Landlord.

     Promptly following the Commencement Date, Landlord and Tenant shall execute
a Commencement Date Certificate confirming the actual Commencement Date.

     Provided Tenant has delivered the Space Plan (as described in Exhibit B-1)
by December 8, 2006, if the Commencement Date has not occurred by June 9, 2007
(the "Rent Credit Date"), then Tenant shall be entitled to a credit against Rent
equal to the amount of Base Rent payable for one (1) day for each two (2) days
between the Rent Credit Date and the Commencement Date. The Rent Credit Date
shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for each day of Tenant Delay. If the
Commencement Date has not occurred by April 23, 2007, then beginning on April
24, 2007, Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with temporary space located on the
fourth floor of the Building to use and occupy pending occurrence of the
Commencement Date. Such temporary premises shall consist of at least 6,000
square feet of space and shall be reasonably sufficient in all respects for
Tenant to use and occupy for its business purposes. Tenant's use and occupancy
of the temporary space shall be on the terms and conditions of this Lease,
except Tenant shall not have any obligation to pay any Rent or any other use or
occupancy fee, or to reimburse Landlord for any costs or expenses relating to
the temporary space; however, Tenant shall be solely responsible for all costs
of electric and data/telephone/communication services supplied to the

<PAGE>

temporary space. Tenant's right to occupy the temporary space shall terminate on
the 10th business day following the Commencement Date, and any occupancy
thereafter shall be at the rate of $20.00 per square foot for each day of
occupancy in addition to and not in substitution for the applicable charges for
the Premises.

3. RENT. As used in this Lease, the term "Rent" shall include:(i) the Base Rent;
(ii) Tenant's Percentage Share of the total dollar increase, if any, in the
Operating Costs paid or incurred by Landlord during the calendar year over the
Operating Costs paid or incurred by Landlord in the Base Year ("Base Year
Operating Costs"), and; (iii) all other amounts which Tenant is obligated to pay
under the terms of this Lease. All amounts of money payable by Tenant to
Landlord shall be paid without prior notice or demand, deduction or offset. Any
amount which is not paid when due shall bear interest from the date due until
the date paid at the rate ("Interest Rate") which is the lesser of twelve
percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law. In addition, if
any required payment of Rent or Additional Rent is not made within ten (10) days
of when due, Tenant shall pay a late charge of five (5%) percent of such overdue
sum.

4. BASE RENT. From and after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay Base Rent
to Contract Manager (or such other entity designated by Landlord), in advance,
on the first day of each calendar month of the Term, at Contract Manager's
address for notices (as set forth in the Basic Lease Information) or at such
other address as Landlord may designate. The Base Rent shall be the amount set
forth in the Basic Lease Information.

5. ADDITIONAL RENT - ANNUAL RENT ADJUSTMENTS/OPERATING COSTS.

     (a) Increase in Operating Costs. Rent shall include Tenant's Percentage
     Share of the total dollar increases (separately determined), if any, in the
     Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Insurance (collectively, the
     Operating Costs) paid or incurred by Landlord during each calendar year of
     the Term over the Base Year Operating Costs. If less than one hundred
     percent (100%) of the rentable area of the Building is occupied during the
     Base Year, Operating Expenses shall be adjusted to equal Landlord's
     reasonable estimate of Operating Expenses if ninety-five percent (95%) of
     the total rentable area of the Building were occupied during the Base Year.

     (b) Operating Expenses. The term "Operating Expenses" shall mean (i) all of
     Landlord's direct costs and expenses of operation, repair and maintenance
     of the Building and the Common Areas and supporting facilities, including,
     without limitation, management fees and costs, landscaping, maintenance,
     security, and such costs as may be payable by Landlord under that certain
     Declaration of Easement dated April 11, 1985 and recorded in Volume 728 of
     the Hamden Land Records at Page 232 (the "Declaration"), as such
     Declaration may be subsequently modified, all as reasonably determined by
     Landlord in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or
     other recognized accounting principles, consistently applied; (ii) costs,
     or a portion thereof, properly allocable to the Building or Common Areas of
     any capital improvements made to the Building or Common Areas by Landlord
     which comprise labor-saving devices or other equipment intended to improve
     the operating efficiency of any system within the Building or Common Areas
     (such as an energy management computer system) to the extent of cost
     savings in Operating Expenses as a result of the device or equipment, as
     reasonably determined by Landlord; (iii) costs properly allocable to the
     Building or Common Areas of any capital improvements made to the Building
     or Common Areas by Landlord that are required under any governmental law or
     regulation that was not applicable to the Building and Common Areas at the
     time they were constructed, or that are reasonably required for the health
     and safety of tenants in the Building, the costs, or allocable portion
     thereof, to be amortized over the applicable useful life of the capital
     item as Landlord shall reasonably determine in accordance with U.S. GAAP
     consistently applied, together with interest upon the unamortized balance
     at the Interest Rate equal to the prime rate plus 1% ; and (iv) excluding
     those "Excluded Costs" more particularly described on Exhibit F attached
     hereto. If less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rentable area of the
     Building is occupied, Operating Expenses shall be adjusted to equal
     Landlord's reasonable estimate of Operating Expenses if ninety-five percent
     (95%) of the total rentable area of the Building were occupied.

     (c) Real Property Taxes. For purposes of this Section 5, the term "Real
     Property Taxes" shall include any ordinary or extraordinary form of
     assessment or special assessment, license

<PAGE>

     fee, rent tax, levy, penalty (if a result of Tenant's delinquency), or tax,
     other than net income, premium, estate, succession, inheritance, transfer
     or franchise taxes, imposed by any authority having the direct or indirect
     power to tax, or by any city, county, state or federal government for any
     maintenance or improvement or other district or division thereof. The term
     shall include all real estate taxes and all other taxes relating to the
     Premises, Building and/or Property, all other taxes which may be levied in
     lieu of real estate taxes, all assessments, levies, fees, and other
     governmental charges for amounts necessary to be expended because of
     governmental orders, whether general or special, ordinary or extraordinary,
     unforeseen as well as foreseen, of any kind and nature for public
     improvement, services, benefits or any other purposes which are assessed,
     levied, confirmed, imposed or become a lien upon the Premises, Building or
     Property or become payable during the Term.

     (d) Insurance. For purposes of this Section 5, the term "Insurance" shall
     mean all of Landlord's direct costs and expenses of insuring Building and
     the Common Areas and supporting facilities. If Landlord elects to
     self-insure or includes the Property under blanket insurance policies
     covering multiple properties, then the term "Insurance" shall include the
     portion of the cost of such self-insurance or blanket insurance allocated
     by Landlord to this Property; provided, however, the right to self-insure
     shall only apply if Landlord is a property and casualty company authorized
     to issue policies in the State of Connecticut, or otherwise complies with
     requirements of law regarding reserves and financial reporting.

     (e) Estimates of Increases in Operating Costs. During December of each
     calendar year during the Term, commencing December 2007, or as soon
     thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of
     Landlord's estimates of any amount of Operating Costs in excess of the Base
     Operating Costs and, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(a)
     above, the amount of the increases which will be payable by Tenant for the
     ensuing calendar year. Upon request, Landlord will provide Tenant with
     reasonable documentation to substantiate Landlord's estimate. On or before
     the first day of each month during the ensuing calendar year, Tenant shall
     pay to Landlord one-twelfth (1/12) of the estimated amounts; provided,
     however, that if notice is not given in December, Tenant shall continue to
     pay on the basis of the then applicable Rent until the month after the
     notice is given. If at any time it appears to Landlord that the increased
     amount payable for the current calendar year will vary from Landlord's
     estimates by more than five percent (5%), Landlord may give notice to
     Tenant of Landlord's revised estimates for the year, and subsequent
     payments by Tenant for the year shall be based on the revised estimate;
     provided, however, that Landlord shall not give notice of a revised
     estimate for any year more frequently than once a calendar quarter.

     (f) Annual Adjustments. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the
     close of each calendar year of the Term, commencing with calendar year
     2007, or as soon after the one hundred twenty (120) day period as
     practicable, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement of the
     adjustments to the Operating Costs for the prior calendar year. If, on the
     basis of the statement, Tenant owes an amount that is less than the
     estimated payments for the calendar year previously made by Tenant,
     Landlord shall apply the excess to the next payment of increased Rent due.
     If, on the basis of the statement, Tenant owes an amount that is more than
     the estimated payments for the calendar year previously made by the Tenant,
     Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within thirty (30) days after
     delivery of the statement. The statements of Operating Costs shall be
     presumed correct and shall be deemed final and binding upon Tenant unless
     (i) Tenant in good faith objects in writing thereto within thirty (30) days
     after delivery of the statement to Tenant (which writing shall state, in
     reasonable detail, all of the reasons for the objection); and (ii) Tenant
     pays in full, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the statement to
     Tenant, any amount owed by Tenant with respect to the statement which is
     not in dispute. If Tenant objects to Landlord's allocation to this Property
     of the cost of self-insurance or blanket insurance, such allocation shall
     nonetheless be presumed correct and shall be deemed final and binding upon
     Tenant unless Tenant's timely written objection includes credible evidence
     that Landlord could have obtained substantially comparable insurance
     coverage for this Property alone at lower cost. If Tenant objects to
     Landlord's statement as set forth above, then within thirty (30) days after
     such notice of objection, Tenant shall be permitted, after reasonable
     notice to Landlord and during normal business hours, to cause an
     independent certified public accountant ("CPA"), who shall be a member of a
     nationally recognized accounting firm) designated by Tenant to inspect
     Landlord's operating expense records at Landlord's offices, provided that
     Tenant is not then in default under the Lease. If after such inspection,
     Tenant still disputes Landlord's statement, a certification as to the
     proper amount payable by Tenant shall be made, at

<PAGE>

     Tenant's expense, by an independent CPA designated by Landlord, which
     certification shall be final and conclusive. However, if such inspection
     reveals that Landlord overcharged Tenant for any category of expense by ten
     percent (10%) or more of the total costs in such respective category of
     expense, then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant, promptly upon demand, for
     all fees, costs and expense incurred by Tenant in connection with such
     inspection. Rent shall be appropriately adjusted on the basis of such
     inspection or audit.

     (g) Taxes on Tenant Improvements and Personal Property. Notwithstanding any
     other provision hereof, Tenant shall pay the full amount of any increase in
     Real Property Taxes during the Term resulting from any and all alterations
     and tenant improvements of any kind whatsoever placed in, on or about the
     Premises for the benefit of and at the request of, or by, Tenant. Tenant
     shall pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes assessed or levied against
     Tenant's personal property in, on or about the Premises. When possible,
     Tenant shall cause its personal property to be assessed and billed
     separately from the real or personal property of Landlord.

6. PRORATION OF RENT. If the Commencement Date is not the first day of the
month, or if the end of the Term is not the last day of the month, Rent shall be
prorated on a monthly basis (based upon a thirty (30) day month) for the
fractional month during the month which this Lease commences or terminates. The
termination of this Lease shall not affect the obligations of Landlord and
Tenant pursuant to Section 5 which are to be performed after the termination.

7. TENANT IMPROVEMENTS.

     (a) Tenant's Work. Except for the work to be performed by Landlord
     expressly described in Subsection 7(b) below ("Landlord's Work"), Tenant
     hereby accepts the Premises in their current "as-is" condition. Other than
     Landlord's Work, Landlord shall have no obligation to construct any
     improvements within the Premises or the Building as part of the initial
     improvement of the Premises for Tenant's occupancy.

     (b) Landlord's Work. Landlord shall, at its own cost and expense, perform
     the work set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto. All Landlord's Work shall
     be completed in compliance with applicable building codes.

8. USE OF PREMISES.

     (a) Use/Compliance with Laws. Tenant shall use the Premises solely for the
     use set forth in the Basic Lease Information, and Tenant shall not use the
     Premises for any other purpose without obtaining the prior written consent
     of Landlord, which consent shall be given or withheld in the sole and
     absolute discretion of Landlord without any requirement of reasonableness
     in the exercise of that discretion. Subject to Landlord's reasonable
     security procedures, Tenant shall have access to the Premises 24 hours per
     day, seven days per week. Landlord represents that the use set forth in the
     Basic Lease Information is a permitted use under applicable legal
     requirements. Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, comply with all
     laws, rules, regulations, orders, permits, licenses and ordinances issued
     by any governmental authority ("Laws") which relate to the use or occupancy
     of the Premises during the term of this Lease, including, without
     limitation, the Building Rules and Regulations attached hereto as Exhibit
     C. Tenant acknowledges that it shall be required to comply with ADA in
     completing any Tenant Improvements, and during the Term, shall bear and pay
     the costs of all changes and corrective measures required by ADA (i) in and
     to the Premises and (ii) provided that such changes and corrective measures
     are required due to the specific use or manner of use of the Premises by
     Tenant, to the Common Areas. Landlord shall undertake all changes and
     corrective measures to the Common Areas otherwise required by ADA, and the
     costs thereof shall constitute Operating Expenses. Tenant shall not use the
     Premises in any manner that will constitute waste, nuisance, or
     unreasonable annoyance (including, without limitation, use of loudspeakers
     or sound or light apparatus that can be heard or seen outside the Premises)
     to other tenants in the Building.

     (b) Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done
     in or upon the Premises or the Building or the Property, or bring in or
     keep anything in the Premises or the Building which shall constitute the
     release, generation, manufacture, storage, treatment, transportation or
     disposal of oil, hazardous chemical, substances, materials, or wastes
     ("Hazardous Materials") under applicable federal, state or local
     environmental laws or regulations

<PAGE>

     ("Environmental Laws"). The foregoing restriction shall not apply as to
     ordinary office supplies in customary quantities. Tenant shall notify
     Landlord of any incident which would require the filing by Tenant of a
     notice under Environmental Laws. Landlord hereby represents that Landlord
     has not received any written notice that the Building or the Property is in
     violation of Environmental Laws, and acknowledges that Tenant shall have no
     obligation to comply with Environmental Laws relating to Hazardous
     Materials located in the Premises prior to the date of this Lease.

9. ALTERATIONS.

     (a) Permitted Alterations. Tenant shall give Landlord not less than ten
     (10) days' written notice of any alteration Tenant desires to make to the
     Premises, which notice shall include a description and preliminary sketch
     of the proposed alterations. Tenant shall not make any alteration in, the
     Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord unless the
     alteration does not affect the Building Structure, the exterior appearance
     of the Building, the roof or the Building Systems and the cost of the
     alteration is not in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00).Tenant
     shall comply with all rules, laws, ordinances and requirements applicable
     at the time Tenant makes any alteration and shall deliver to Landlord all
     certificates of insurance from all contractors, copy of the building permit
     (if required), and a complete set of "as built" plans and specifications
     for each alteration. Tenant shall be solely responsible for maintenance and
     repair of all alterations made by Tenant. As used in this Section, the term
     "alteration" shall include any alteration, addition or improvement.

     (b) Liens. If, because of any act or omission of Tenant or anyone claiming
     by, through, or under Tenant, any mechanics' lien or other lien is filed
     against the Premises, the Building, the Property or against other property
     of Landlord (whether or not the lien is valid or enforceable), Tenant
     shall, at its own expense, cause it to be discharged of record within a
     reasonable time, not to exceed thirty (30) days, after the date of the
     filing. In addition, Tenant shall defend and indemnify Landlord and hold it
     harmless from any and all claims, losses, damages, judgments, settlements,
     costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, resulting from the lien.

     (c) Ownership of Alterations. Any alteration made by Tenant shall
     immediately become Landlord's property at the end of the Lease Term or upon
     a Tenant Default. The foregoing notwithstanding, Tenant shall be
     responsible for and shall remove its trade fixtures promptly upon the
     termination of this Lease. Any damage resulting from such removal shall be
     promptly restored by Tenant.

10. REPAIRS.

     (a) Landlord Repairs. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Landlord
     shall, at all times during the Term, keep in good condition and repair the
     roof, Common Areas, exterior walls (including exterior glass and mullions),
     and structure of the Building (including the mechanical, electrical, and
     plumbing systems servicing the Premises in common with other areas in the
     Building) all insofar as they affect the Premises.

     (b) Tenant Repairs. Tenant, shall at all times during the Term and at
     Tenant's sole cost and expense, keep the Premises and every part thereof in
     good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear, damage thereto by fire,
     earthquake, acts of God or the elements excepted. Tenant hereby waives all
     right to make repairs at the expense of Landlord or in lieu thereof to
     vacate the Premises as may be provided in or any law, statute or ordinance
     now or hereafter in effect.

11. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.

     (a) Landlord's Obligation to Rebuild. If the Premises are damaged or
     destroyed, Landlord shall promptly and diligently repair the Premises
     unless Landlord has the option to terminate this Lease as provided herein,
     and Landlord elects to terminate.

     (b) Right to Terminate. Landlord and Tenant each shall have the option to
     terminate this Lease if the Premises or the Building is destroyed or
     damaged by fire or other casualty, regardless of whether the casualty is
     insured against under this Lease, if Landlord reasonably determines that
     the repair of the Premises or the Building cannot be completed within one
     hundred eighty (180) days after the casualty. Landlord shall notify Tenant
     of such determination within forty-five (45) days following such
     destruction or damage. If a party desires to exercise the

<PAGE>

     right to terminate this Lease as a result of a casualty, the party shall
     exercise the right by giving the other party written notice of its election
     to terminate within thirty (30) days after the damage or destruction, in
     which event this Lease shall terminate fifteen (15) days after the date of
     the notice. If neither Landlord nor Tenant exercises the right to terminate
     this Lease, Landlord shall promptly commence the process of obtaining
     necessary permits and approvals, and shall commence repair of the Premises
     or the Building as soon as practicable and thereafter prosecute the repair
     diligently to completion, in which event this Lease shall continue in full
     force and effect. If Landlord fails to complete the repair and restoration
     of the Premises or the Building within 180 days after the date of such fire
     or other casualty, then Tenant may terminate this Lease by providing
     written notice to Landlord.

     (c) Limited Obligation to Repair. Landlord's obligation, should Landlord
     elect or be obligated to repair or rebuild, shall be limited to the
     Building shell, the Landlord's work and any improvements within the
     Premises which existed as of the date of this Lease. Tenant, at its option
     and expense, shall replace or fully repair all trade fixtures, equipment
     and other improvements installed by Tenant and existing at the time of the
     damage or destruction.

     (d) Abatement of Rent. In the event of any damage or destruction to the
     Premises which does not result in termination of this Lease, the Rent shall
     be temporarily abated proportionately to the degree the Premises are
     untenantable as a result of the damage or destruction, commencing from the
     date of the damage or destruction and continuing during the period required
     by Landlord to substantially complete its repair and restoration of the
     Premises; provided, however, that nothing herein shall preclude Landlord
     from being entitled to collect the full amount of any rent loss insurance
     proceeds. Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages from
     Landlord for loss of the use of the Premises, damage to Tenant's personal
     property or any inconvenience occasioned by any damage, repair or
     restoration.

     (e) Damage Near End of Term and Extensive Damage. In addition to the rights
     to termination under Subsection 11(b), either Landlord or Tenant shall have
     the right to cancel and terminate this Lease as of the date of the
     occurrence of destruction or damage if the Premises or the Building is
     substantially destroyed or damaged (i.e., there is damage or destruction
     which Landlord reasonably determines would require more than six (6) months
     to repair, which determination shall be made, and notice given to Tenant
     within 30 days after the date of occurrence of destruction or damage) and
     made untenantable during the last twelve (12) months of the Term. Landlord
     or Tenant shall give notice of its election to terminate this Lease under
     this Subsection 11(e) within thirty (30) days after Landlord determines
     that the damage or destruction would require more than six (6) months to
     repair. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease in accordance with this
     section 11 (e), then Tenant may negate such election by exercising any
     option it has to extend the Term. If neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to
     terminate this Lease, the repair of the damage shall be governed by
     Subsection 11(c).

     (f) Insurance Proceeds. If this Lease is terminated, Landlord may keep all
     the insurance proceeds resulting from the damage from policies maintained
     by Landlord.

12. EMINENT DOMAIN. If all or any part of the Premises is taken for public or
quasi-public use by a governmental authority under the power of eminent domain
or is conveyed to a governmental authority in lieu of such taking, and if the
taking or conveyance causes the remaining part of the Premises to be
untenantable and inadequate for use by Tenant for the purpose for which they
were leased, then Tenant, at its option and by giving notice within fifteen (15)
days after the taking, may terminate this Lease as of the date Tenant is
required to surrender possession of the Premises. If a part of the Premises is
taken or conveyed but the remaining part is tenantable and adequate for Tenant's
use, then this Lease shall be terminated as to the part taken or conveyed as of
the date Tenant surrenders possession; Landlord shall make such repairs,
alterations and improvements as may be necessary to render the part not taken or
conveyed tenantable; and the Rent shall be reduced in proportion to the part of
the Premises taken or conveyed. All compensation awarded for the taking or
conveyance shall be the property of Landlord without any deduction therefrom for
any estate of Tenant, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all its right, title
and interest in and to the award. Tenant shall have the right, however, to
recover from the governmental authority, but not from Landlord, such
compensation as may be awarded to Tenant on account of the interruption of
Tenant's business, moving and relocation expenses and removal of Tenant's trade
fixtures and personal property.

13. INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE.

<PAGE>

     (a) Indemnity. Tenant shall be responsible for, shall insure against, and
     shall indemnify Landlord and Landlord's agents, employees and contractors
     and hold them harmless from, any and all liability for any loss, damage or
     injury to person or property occurring in, on or about the Premises, except
     to the extent that such liability is the result of the gross negligence or
     willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, employees or contractors and
     Tenant hereby releases Landlord and Landlord's agents, employees and
     contractors from any and all liability for the same. Tenant's obligation to
     indemnify Landlord and Landlord's agents, employees and contractors
     hereunder shall include the duty to defend against any claims asserted by
     reason of any loss, damage or injury, and to pay any judgments,
     settlements, costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred
     in connection therewith.

     (b) Insurance. At all times during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall
     carry, at its own expense, for the protection of Tenant, Landlord and
     Landlord's agents, employees and contractors, as their interests may
     appear, one or more policies of comprehensive general public liability and
     property damage insurance, issued by one or more insurance companies
     acceptable to Landlord, with minimum coverage of One Million Dollars
     ($1,000,000) for injury to one person in any one accident, Three Million
     Dollars ($3,000,000) for injuries to more than one person in any one
     accident and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) in property damage per
     accident and insuring against any and all liability for which Tenant is
     responsible under this Lease. The insurance policy or policies shall name
     Landlord and Landlord's agents, employees and contractors as additional
     insureds, and shall provide that the policy or policies may not be canceled
     on less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant
     shall furnish Landlord with certificates evidencing the insurance. If
     Tenant fails to carry the insurance and furnish Landlord with copies of all
     the policies after a request to do so, Landlord shall have the right to
     obtain the insurance and collect the cost thereof from Tenant as additional
     Rent. Landlord shall obtain and throughout the Term shall maintain, with
     companies qualified to do business in Connecticut, and adjusting insurance
     coverages to reflect current values from time to time: fire, extended
     coverage and so-called "all-risk" insurance, with coverage against
     vandalism and malicious conduct, covering the Building and all improvements
     made thereto, in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the full
     replacement cost thereof above foundation walls.

14. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

     (a) Landlord's Consent. Subject to Landlord's rights set forth in
     Subsection (b) below, Tenant shall not assign, sublet or otherwise transfer
     all or any portion of Tenant's interest in this Lease (collectively,
     "sublet") without Landlord's prior written consent which consent Landlord
     shall not unreasonably withhold. Any request made by Tenant for Landlord's
     consent to a proposed sublet shall be made in writing and sent to Landlord
     in accordance with the notice requirements of Section 35 of this Lease.
     Landlord's consent shall not be deemed granted unless Landlord, within 15
     days of the date any such notice is deemed received by Landlord, shall
     advise Tenant in writing that Landlord's consent is granted. Consent by
     Landlord to one sublet shall not be deemed to be a consent to any
     subsequent sublet. The foregoing notwithstanding, no consent of Landlord
     shall be required in the case of a sublet to wholly owned affiliates or
     subsidiaries of Tenant or in connection with any merger, consolidation or
     sale of substantially all of the assets of Tenant. Subject to Landlord's
     rights set forth in Subsection (b) below, Tenant may assign, sublet or
     otherwise transfer all or any portion of Tenant's interest in this Lease
     (collectively, "sublet") to its said affiliate or subsidiary without
     Landlord's prior written consent, provided, however, that no such
     assignment or sublease shall relieve Tenant of its obligations under this
     Lease. For purposes of this Subsection 14(a), the term "affiliate" means a
     person or entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with
     the Tenant.

     (b) Effect of Sublet. Each sublet to which Landlords consent is required
     per Subsection 14(a) above shall be by an instrument in writing, in a form
     satisfactory to Landlord as evidenced by Landlord's written approval. Each
     sublessee shall agree in writing, for the benefit of Landlord, to assume
     (with respect to an assignment), to be bound by and to perform the terms,
     conditions and covenants of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. Tenant
     shall not be released from personal liability for the performance of each
     term, condition and covenant of this Lease, and Landlord shall have the
     right to proceed against Tenant without proceeding against the subtenant.

<PAGE>

     (c) Executed Counterparts. No sublet shall be valid nor shall any subtenant
     take possession of the Premises until an executed counterpart of the
     sublease has been delivered to Landlord and approved in writing.

15. DEFAULT.

     (a) Tenant's Default. At the option of Landlord, a material breach of this
     Lease by Tenant shall exist if any of the following events (severally,
     "Event of Default"; collectively, "Events of Default") shall occur: (i) if
     Tenant shall have failed to pay Rent, including Tenant's Percentage Share
     of increased Operating Costs, or any other sum required to be paid
     hereunder when due, together with interest at the Interest Rate, from the
     date the amount became due through the date of payment, inclusive, where
     such failure to pay continues for ten (10) days after written notice to
     Tenant of such default, provided that Landlord shall not be required to
     provide such notice and right to cure more than once in any twelve-month
     period during the Term; (ii) if Tenant shall have failed to perform any
     term, covenant or condition of this Lease except those requiring the
     payment of money, and Tenant shall have failed to cure the breach within
     thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord if the breach could
     reasonably be cured within the thirty (30) day period; provided, however,
     if the failure could not reasonably be cured within the thirty (30) day
     period, then Tenant shall not be in default unless it has failed to
     promptly commence and thereafter continue to make diligent and reasonable
     efforts to cure the failure as soon as practicable as reasonably determined
     by Landlord; (iii) if Tenant shall have assigned its assets for the benefit
     of its creditors; (iv) if the sequestration of, attachment of, or execution
     on, any material part of the property of Tenant or on any property
     essential to the conduct of Tenant's business shall have occurred, and
     Tenant shall have failed to obtain a return or release of the property
     within thirty (30) days thereafter, or prior to sale pursuant to any
     sequestration, attachment or levy, whichever is earlier; (v) if Tenant
     shall have abandoned the Premises; (vi) if a court shall have made or
     entered any decree or order adjudging Tenant to be insolvent, or approving
     as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization of Tenant, or directing
     the winding up or liquidation of Tenant, and the decree or order shall have
     continued for a period of thirty (30) days; (vii) if Tenant shall make or
     suffer any transfer which constitutes a fraudulent or otherwise avoidable
     transfer under any provision of the federal Bankruptcy Laws or any
     applicable state law; or (viii) if Tenant shall have failed to comply with
     the provisions of Section 23 or 25. For all purposes under this Lease,
     Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default unless and until an Event of
     Default occurs.

     (b) Remedies Upon Tenant's Default. Upon and during the continuance of an
     Event of Default, Landlord shall have the following remedies, in addition
     to all other rights and remedies provided by law, equity, statute or
     otherwise provided in this Lease, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively
     or in the alternative:

          (i) Landlord may continue this Lease in full force and effect, and
          this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as long as Landlord
          does not terminate Tenant's right to possession, and Landlord shall
          have the right to collect Rent when due. During the period Tenant is
          in default, Landlord may, if it so elects in its sole discretion (but
          shall have no obligation to) enter the Premises pursuant to summary
          process laws and relet it, or any part of it, to third parties for
          Tenant's account, provided that any rent received which is in excess
          of the Rent due hereunder shall be payable to Landlord. Tenant shall
          be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in
          reletting the Premises, including, without limitation, brokers'
          commissions, expenses of cleaning and redecorating the Premises
          required by the reletting and like costs. Reletting may be for a
          period shorter or longer than the remaining Term of this Lease. Tenant
          shall pay to Landlord the Rent and other sums due under this Lease on
          the dates the Rent is due, less the Rent and other sums Landlord
          receives from any reletting. No act by Landlord allowed by this
          Subsection 15(b)(i) shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord
          notifies Tenant in writing that Landlord elects to terminate this
          Lease. Under all circumstances, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts
          to mitigate damages resulting from any default by Tenant.

          (ii) Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession of the
          Premises at any time by giving written notice to that effect. No act
          by Landlord other than giving written notice to Tenant shall terminate
          this Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises or the
          appointment of a receiver on Landlord's initiative to protect
          Landlord's interest under this Lease shall not constitute a
          termination of Tenant's right to

<PAGE>

          possession. On termination and repossession of the Premises pursuant
          to summary process laws Landlord shall have the right to remove all
          personal property of Tenant and store it at Tenant's cost and to
          recover from Tenant as damages: (1) the worth at the time of award of
          unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable which had been earned at
          the time of termination; plus (2) the worth at the time of award of
          the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable
          which would have been payable after termination until the time of
          award exceeds the amount of the Rent loss that Tenant proves could
          have been reasonably avoided; plus (3) the worth at the time of award
          of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable
          for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount
          of the Rent loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
          (4) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for any costs or
          expenses incurred by Landlord: (a) in retaking possession of the
          Premises, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs therefor; (b)
          maintaining or preserving the Premises for reletting to a new tenant,
          including repairs or alterations to the Premises for the reletting;
          (c) leasing commissions; (d) any other costs necessary or appropriate
          to relet the Premises; and (e) at Landlord's election, such other
          amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted
          from time to time by the laws of the State of Connecticut.

     The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in Subsections
     15(b)(ii)(1) and 15(b)(ii)(2) is computed by allowing interest at the
     lesser of twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by
     law, on the unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable from the termination
     date through the date of award. The "worth at the time of award" of the
     amount referred to in Subsection 15(b)(ii)(3) is computed by discounting
     the amount at the prime rate plus one percent (1%).

     (c) Landlord's Default. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default in
     the performance of any obligation required to be performed by Landlord
     hereunder unless and until Landlord has failed to perform the obligation
     within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice by Tenant to
     Landlord specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform the obligation;
     provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that
     more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Landlord
     shall not be deemed to be in default if Landlord shall commence the
     performance within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter shall
     diligently prosecute the same to completion.

16. LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO PERFORM TENANT'S COVENANTS. If Tenant shall at any time
fail to make any payment or perform any other act on its part to be made or
performed under this Lease and such failure continues beyond all applicable
notice, grace and cure periods, then Landlord may, but shall not be obligated
to, make the payment or perform any other act to the extent Landlord may deem
desirable and, in connection therewith, pay reasonable expenses and employ
counsel at reasonable rates. Any payment or performance by Landlord shall not
waive or release Tenant from any obligations of Tenant under this Lease. All
reasonable sums so paid by Landlord, and all penalties, interest and costs in
connection therewith, shall be due and payable by Tenant within ten (10) days
after receipt of Landlord's invoice requesting payment, together with interest
thereon at the Interest Rate, from that date to the date of payment thereof by
Tenant to Landlord, plus collection costs and attorneys' fees. Landlord shall
have the same rights and remedies for the nonpayment thereof as in the case of
default in the payment of Rent.

17. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant has deposited with Landlord the Security Deposit,
in the amount specified in the Basic Lease Information, as security for the full
and faithful performance of every provision of this Lease to be performed by
Tenant. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, Landlord
may use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment
of any Rent or other sum in default, for the payment of any amount which
Landlord may expend or become obligated to expend by reason of Tenant's default,
or to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by
reason of Tenant's default. If any portion of the Security Deposit is used or
applied, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, within ten (10) days after written
demand therefor, cash in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to
its original amount. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit
separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on
the Security Deposit. The balance of the Security Deposit shall be returned to
Tenant within 30 days after the termination of this Lease and vacation of the
Premises by Tenant.

18. SURRENDER OF PREMISES. By taking possession of the Premises, Tenant shall be
deemed to have accepted the Premises and the Property in good, clean and
completed condition and repair, subject to all

<PAGE>

applicable laws, codes and ordinances, except as may otherwise be provided in
the Lease. On the expiration or early termination of this Lease, Tenant shall
surrender the Premises to Landlord in the condition required pursuant to Section
9(c) and 10(b). Tenant shall remove from the Premises all of Tenant's personal
property and any trade fixtures that Tenant removes pursuant to Section
9(c).Tenant shall repair damage or perform any restoration work required by the
removal. If Tenant fails to remove any such personal property or trade fixtures
after the end of the Term, Landlord may remove the property and store it at
Tenant's expense, including interest at the Interest Rate. If said property has
been stored for a period in excess of ninety (90) days, Landlord shall be free
to dispose of same in any way it deems practicable. If disposed of by sale,
Landlord shall be entitled to all proceeds.

19. HOLDING OVER. If Tenant remains in possession of all or any part of the
Premises after the expiration of the Term or the termination of this Lease, the
tenancy shall be month-to-month only and shall not constitute a renewal or
extension for any further term. In such event, Base Rent shall be increased in
an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent during the
last month of the Term (including any extensions), and any other sums due under
this Lease shall be payable in the amount, and at the times, specified in this
Lease. The month-to-month tenancy shall be subject to every other term,
condition, covenant and agreement contained in this Lease and Tenant shall
vacate the Premises immediately upon Landlord's request.

20. ACCESS TO PREMISES. Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents to enter the
Premises at all times upon reasonable notice, except in the case of an emergency
(in which event no notice shall be necessary), to inspect the Premises; to show
the Premises to interested parties such as prospective mortgagors, purchasers
and tenants; to make necessary alterations, additions, improvements or repairs
either to the Premises, the Building, or other premises within the Building; and
to discharge Tenant's obligations hereunder when Tenant has failed to do so
within a reasonable time after written notice from Landlord. The above rights
are subject to reasonable security regulations of Tenant, and to the requirement
that Landlord shall at all times act in a manner to cause the least possible
interference with Tenant's operations.

21. SIGNS. Landlord shall include Tenant's name on the building directory at
Landlord's expense on a one-time basis. Any changes shall be at Tenant's
expense. The size, design, color, location and other physical aspects of any
sign in the Building shall be subject to the Rules and Landlord's approval prior
to installation, and to any appropriate municipal or other governmental
approvals. The costs of any other permitted sign, and the costs of its
installation, maintenance and removal, shall be at Tenant's sole expense, except
that the suite identification sign adjacent to the door shall be installed at
Landlord's expense as a part of the Tenant Allowance.

22. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Anything in this Lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives and releases the other
of and from any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or cause of action
against the other, its subsidiaries, directors, agents, officers and employees,
for any loss or damage that may occur in the Premises, the Building or the
Property; to improvements to the Building or personal property (building
contents) within the Building; or to any furniture, equipment, machinery, goods
and supplies not covered by this Lease which Tenant may bring or obtain upon the
Premises or any additional improvements which Tenant may construct on the
Premises by reason of fire, the elements or any other cause which is required to
be insured against under this Lease, regardless of cause or origin, including
negligence of Landlord or Tenant and their agents, subsidiaries, directors,
officers and employees, to the extent insured against under the terms of any
insurance policies carried by Landlord or Tenant and in force at the time of any
such damage, but only if the insurance in question permits such a partial
release in connection with obtaining a waiver of subrogation from the insurer.
Because this Section will preclude the assignment of any claim mentioned in it
by way of subrogation or otherwise to an insurance company or any other person,
each party to this Lease agrees immediately to give to each insurance company
written notice of the terms of the mutual waivers contained in this Section and
to have the insurance policies properly endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the
invalidation of the insurance coverages by reason of the mutual waivers
contained in this Section.

23. SUBORDINATION.

     (a) Subordinate Nature. Except as provided in Subsection 23(b), this Lease
     is subject and subordinate to all ground and underlying leases, mortgages
     and deeds of trust which now affect the Property, the Building or the
     Premises, to the Declaration, and to all renewals, modifications,
     consolidations, and extensions thereof, but only if the Holder or Lessor
     (as those terms are defined below) enters into a recordable agreement with
     Tenant, in form and substance

<PAGE>

     reasonably acceptable to Tenant, providing that such Holder or Lessor will,
     in foreclosing against (or accepting a deed in lieu of foreclosure) or in
     taking possession of the Property, the Building or any portion thereof, or
     in otherwise exercising any of its rights under the lease, mortgage or deed
     of trust, be bound as landlord by, and will not disturb Tenant's possession
     of the Premises or any of Tenant's rights under, this Lease, so long as
     there shall not exist any default by Tenant beyond all applicable notice,
     grace and cure periods. Within ten (10) business days after Landlord's
     written request therefor, Tenant shall execute any and all documents in
     form reasonably required by Landlord, the lessor under any future ground or
     underlying lease ("Lessor"), or the holder or holders of any future
     mortgage or deed of trust ("Holder") to make this Lease subordinate to the
     lien of any lease, mortgage or deed of trust, as the case may be, but only
     if Tenant receives such recognition and non-disturbance agreement.

     (b) Possible Priority of Lease. If a Lessor or a Holder advises Landlord
     that it desires or requires this Lease to be prior and superior to a lease,
     mortgage or deed of trust, Landlord may notify Tenant. Within ten (10) days
     of Landlord's notice, Tenant shall execute, have acknowledged and deliver
     to Landlord any and all documents or instruments, in the form presented to
     Tenant, which Landlord, Lessor or Holder deems reasonably necessary or
     desirable to make this Lease prior and superior to the lease, mortgage or
     deed of trust.

24. TRANSFER OF THE PROPERTY. Upon transfer of the Property and assignment of
this Lease, Landlord shall be entirely freed and relieved of all liability under
any and all of its covenants and obligations contained in or derived from this
Lease occurring after the consummation of the transfer and assignment, and from
all liability for the Security Deposit. Tenant shall attorn to any entity
purchasing or otherwise acquiring the Premises at any sale or other proceeding,
provided such entity shall assume the obligations of Landlord hereunder from and

25. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Within ten business (10) days following written
request by Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel

modified, state the nature of the modification and certify that this Lease, as
so modified, is in full force and effect, and the date to which the Rent and
other charges are paid in advance, if any; (b) acknowledge that there are not,
to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord hereunder,
or if there are uncured defaults on the part of the Landlord, state the nature
of the uncured defaults; and (c) evidence the status of the Lease as may be
required either by a lender making a loan to Landlord to be secured by deed of
trust or mortgage covering the Premises or a purchaser of the Property from
Landlord.

26. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION. In the event of any default on the part of Landlord,
Tenant will give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a
deed of trust or mortgagee of a mortgage covering the Property who has entered
into a nondisturbance and attornment agreement with Tenant or who has notified
Tenant of the identity and address of the person to whom such notice should be
sent and shall offer the beneficiary or mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to
cure the default, including time to obtain possession of the Property or the
Premises by power of sale or a judicial foreclosure, if such should prove
necessary to effect a cure.

27. ATTORNEYS' FEES. If either party shall bring any action or legal proceeding
for damages for an alleged breach of any provision of this Lease, to recover
rent or other sums due, to terminate the tenancy of the Premises or to enforce,
protect or establish any term, condition or covenant of this Lease or right of
either party, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, as a part of
the action or proceedings, or in a separate action brought for that purpose,
such reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs as may be fixed by the court or
jury.

28. BROKERS. Landlord and Tenant each warrant and represent to each other that
it has had no dealings with any real estate broker or agent in connection with
the negotiation of this Lease, except for the brokers(s) specified in the Basic
Lease Information, whose commissions shall be paid by Landlord pursuant to
separate agreements, and that it knows of no other real estate broker or agent
who is or might be entitled to a commission in connection with this Lease.
Landlord and Tenant shall indemnify and hold each other harmless from and
against any and all liabilities or expenses arising out of claims made by any
other broker or individual for commissions or fees resulting from this Lease.

29. PARKING. Tenant shall have the right, without additional charge during the
initial Term of this Lease, to park forty-four (44) cars in the Building's
parking garage and/or surface parking, exclusive of reserved parking areas, in
common with other tenants of the Building upon terms and conditions as may

<PAGE>

from time to time be established by Landlord. All such spaces shall be
unreserved. Tenant agrees not to use in excess of its proportionate share of
parking facilities and agrees to cooperate with Landlord and other tenants in
the use of the parking facilities. Landlord reserves the right, in its absolute
discretion, to determine whether the parking facilities are becoming crowded and
to allocate and assign parking spaces among Tenant and the other tenants,
provided that at all times Tenant shall have use of a minimum of 44 parking
spaces in the Building's garage and/or surface parking areas. Landlord shall not
be liable to Tenant, nor shall this Lease be affected, if any parking is
impaired by moratorium, initiative, referendum, law, ordinance, regulation or
order passed, issued or made by any governmental or quasi-governmental body.

30. UTILITIES AND SERVICES. Landlord agrees to furnish, or cause to be
furnished, to the Premises the utilities and services described in the standards
for Utilities and Services, set forth in Exhibit D subject to the conditions and
in accordance with the standards set forth therein. Landlord shall not be liable
for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Rent by
reason of, no eviction of Tenant shall result from and, further, Tenant shall
not be relieved from the performance of any covenant or agreement in this Lease
because of, Landlord's failure to furnish any of the foregoing when the failure
is not caused by Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct, but rather
is caused by accident, breakage, or repairs, strikes, lockouts or other labor
disturbance or labor dispute of any character, governmental regulation,
moratorium or other governmental action, inability despite the exercise of
reasonable diligence to obtain electricity, water or fuel, or by any other cause
beyond Landlord's reasonable control. In the event of any failure, stoppage or
interruption thereof, Landlord shall diligently attempt to resume service. If
such interruption of service (other than that caused by casualty or
condemnation) shall continue for more than ten (10) consecutive days, the Rent
payable by Tenant hereunder shall abate, based upon the portion or portions of
the Premises affected by such interruption of service and the degree of adverse
effect of the interruption upon the normal conduct of Tenant's business at the
Premises, until such interruption is remedied.

31. ACCEPTANCE. Delivery of this Lease, duly executed by Tenant, constitutes an
offer to lease the Premises as set forth herein, and under no circumstances
shall such delivery be deemed to create an option or reservation to lease the
Premises for the benefit of Tenant. This Lease shall become effective and
binding only upon execution hereof by Landlord and delivery of a signed copy to
Tenant. Upon acceptance of Tenant's offer to lease under the terms hereof and
receipt by Landlord of the Rent for the first month of the Term in connection
with Tenant's submission of the offer, Landlord shall be entitled to retain the
sums and apply them to damages, costs and expenses incurred by Landlord if
Tenant fails to occupy the Premises. If Landlord rejects the offer, the sums
shall be returned to Tenant.

32. USE OF BUILDING NAME. Tenant shall not employ the name of the Building nor
the name of the business in which the Building is located in the name or title
of its business or occupation without Landlord's prior written consent, which
consent Landlord may withhold in its sole discretion. Landlord reserves the
right to change the name of the Building without Tenant's consent and without
any liability to Landlord.

33. RECORDING. Neither the Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease or a
notice of this Lease without the prior written consent of the other. However,
this subsection will not preclude Tenant from disclosing this Lease if required
pursuant to SEC regulations.

and officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives of Landlord and
Landlord's members, managers, partners, co-venturers and co-tenants) of any of
Landlord's obligations under this Lease, Landlord's liability to Tenant shall be

     the meaning of any part of this Lease.

     condition and covenant of this Lease.

     (c) Severability. If any provision of this Lease is held to be invalid,
     illegal or unenforceable, the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability
     shall not affect any other provision of this Lease, but this Lease shall be
     construed as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had not
     been contained herein.

     (d) Choice of Law; Construction. This Lease shall be construed and enforced
     in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut. The language in

     and assigns (to the extent this Lease is assignable).

     (g) Waiver. The waiver of Landlord of any breach of any term, condition or
     covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the provision
     or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, condition or
     covenant of this Lease. The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by
     Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach at the

     instrument.

     exhibits attached hereto are hereby incorporated herein and made an
     integral part hereof.

39. OPTIONS TO EXTEND TERM.

     (a) Option Period. So long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease,
     either at the time of exercise or at the time the extended term commences,
     Tenant will have two (2) options to extend the initial ten (10) year term
     of this Lease each for an additional period of five (5) years (each an

<PAGE>

     "Option Period") on the same terms, covenants, and conditions of this
     Lease, except that the monthly Base Rent during each such Option Period
     will be determined at a mutually acceptable rate as negotiated between the
     Tenant and the Landlord. Tenant will exercise its option by giving Landlord
     written notice ("Option Notice") at least one hundred eighty (180) days but
     not more than three hundred sixty-five (365) days prior to the expiration
     of the initial term of this Lease, or any then applicable Option Period;
     provided, however that Tenant may elect to exercise both of its options to
     extend the Term simultaneously, in which case Tenant shall not make such
     election prior to the date that is 365 days prior to the expiration of the
     initial term of this lease. If Tenant elects to exercise both options to
     extend the Term simultaneously, then the Base Rent shall be adjusted at the
     commencement of the Option Period and again in year six (6) of the Option
     Period.

     (b) Option Period Monthly Rent. The monthly rent for each such option
     period will be determined as follows::

          (i) Landlord and Tenant will have fifteen (15) business days after
          Landlord receives the Option Notice within which to agree on the
          then-fair market rental value of the Premises as defined in Subsection
          (b)(iii) below; provided, however, that the Base Rent for the Option
          Period shall be equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the then-fair
          market rental value (except that if prior to the commencement of the
          Option Period Tenant has sublet its interest in all or any portion of
          the Premises, other than a sublet pursuant to Subsection 14(a) that
          does not require Landlord's consent to a subsidiary or successor by
          merger of Tenant, the Base Rent for the Option Period shall be equal
          to one hundred (100%) percent of the then-fair market value). If they
          agree on the Base Rent for the Option Period within fifteen (15)
          business days, they will amend this Lease by stating the new Base
          Rental for the Option Period.

          (ii) If they are unable to agree on the Base Rent for the Option
          Period within fifteen (15) business days, then, Base Rent for the
          Option Period will be 95% of the then-fair market rental value of the
          Premises as determined in accordance with Subsection b(iv) below.

          (iii) The "then-fair market rental value of the Premises" means what a
          Landlord under no compulsion to lease the Premises and a Tenant under
          no compulsion to lease the Premises would determine as Base Rent for
          such option period, as of the commencement of that option period,
          taking into consideration the uses permitted under this Lease, the
          quality, size, design, and location of the Premises, and the rent for
          comparable buildings located in the vicinity of Hamden, Connecticut.

          (iv) Within seven business (7) days after the expiration of the
          fifteen (15) business day period set forth in paragraph b (ii),
          Landlord and Tenant will each appoint a real estate appraiser with at
          least five (5) years' full-time commercial appraisal experience in the
          area in which the Premises are located to appraise the then-fair
          market rental value of the Premises. If either Landlord or Tenant does
          not appoint an appraiser within ten (10) business days after the other
          has given notice of the name of its appraiser, the single appraiser
          appointed will be the sole appraiser and will set the then-fair market
          rental value of the Premises. If two appraisers are appointed pursuant
          to this paragraph, they will meet promptly and attempt to set the
          then-fair market rental value of the Premises. If they are unable to
          agree within thirty (30) days after the second appraiser has been
          appointed, they will attempt to elect a third appraiser meeting the
          qualifications stated in this paragraph within ten (10) business days
          after the last day the two appraisers are given to set the then fair
          market rental value of the premises. If they are unable to agree on
          the third appraiser, either Landlord or Tenant, by giving ten (10)
          business days' prior notice to the other, can apply to American
          Arbitration Association for the selection of a third appraiser who
          meets the qualifications stated in this paragraph. Landlord and Tenant
          will bear one-half (1/2) of the cost of appointing the third appraiser
          and of paying the third appraiser's fee. The third appraiser, however
          selected, must be a person who has not previously acted in any
          capacity for either Landlord or Tenant.

Within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third appraiser, a majority
of the appraisers will set the then-fair market rental value of the Premises. If
a majority of the appraisers are unable to set the then-fair market rental value
of the Premises within thirty (30) days after selection of the third appraiser,
the three appraisals will be averaged and the average will be the then-fair
market rental value of the Premises.

                             UTILITIES AND SERVICES

     The standards set forth below for Utilities and Services are in effect.
Landlord reserves the right to adopt nondiscriminatory modifications and
additions hereto, which do not materially affect Tenant's rights. Landlord shall
give notice to Tenant, in accordance with provisions of this Lease, of material
modification and additions.

     1.   PROVISION BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall:

     (a) ELEVATOR. Provide unattended automatic elevator facilities Monday
     through Friday, except holidays, from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., and Saturday
     from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. ("Building Standard Hours") and have at least
     one elevator available at all other times.

     (b)  VENTILATION.

          (i) Ventilate the Premises and furnish air-conditioning or heating
     during Building Standard Hours (and at other times for the additional
     charges described in Paragraph 2 to the extent required for the comfortable
     occupancy of the Premises) subject to governmental regulation and the
     provisions of subparagraph (ii) below. The air-conditioning system achieves
     maximum cooling when the window coverings and sliding glass doors are
     closed. Landlord shall not be responsible for room temperatures if Tenant
     does not keep all sliding glass doors in the Premises closed whenever the
     system is in operation. Tenant shall cooperate to the best of its ability
     at all times with Landlord and shall abide by all reasonable regulations
     and requirements which Landlord may prescribe for the proper functioning
     and protection of the air-conditioning system. Tenant shall not connect any
     apparatus, device, conduit or pipe to the Building's chilled and hot water
     air-conditioning supply lines. Tenant and Tenant's servants, employees,
     agents, visitors, licensees or contractors shall not enter at any time the
     mechanical installations or facilities of the Building, or adjust, tamper
     with, touch or otherwise in any manner affect the installations or
     facilities. If any installation of partitions, equipment or fixtures by
     Tenant necessitates the re-balancing of the climate control equipment in
     the Premises, the re-balancing shall be performed by Landlord at Tenant's
     expense.

     (c) ELECTRICITY. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 2, furnish to the
     Premises electric current as required by the Building standard office
     lighting and equipment installed by Tenant in the Premises. Tenant's
     electrical consumption shall be separately sub-metered, such sub-meter
     installed and maintained by Landlord at its sole expense, and Tenant shall
     reimburse Landlord monthly, as Additional Rent, for the measured
     consumption as set forth in an invoice from Landlord accompanied by such
     documentation as is reasonably sufficient to substantiate such changes.
     Tenant shall not connect any apparatus or device with wires, conduits or
     pipes, or other means by which the services are supplied, for the purpose
     of using additional or unusual amounts of the services without the prior
     written consent of Landlord. Unless expressly authorized by Landlord in
     writing, at all times Tenant's use of electric current shall not exceed the
     capacity of the feeders to the Building or the risers or wiring
     installation. The foregoing notwithstanding, Landlord shall make a minimum
     of 6 Watts per rentable square foot available for Tenant's use for
     connected load.

     (d) WATER. Make water available in public areas for drinking and lavatory
     purposes only.

     (e) JANITORIAL SERVICE. Provide building standard janitorial service to the
     Premises, as set forth on Exhibit G, provided the Premises are used
     exclusively as offices, and are kept reasonably in order by Tenant. Tenant
     shall pay to Landlord any cost incurred by Landlord for janitorial services
     in excess of those generally provided for other tenants in the Building.
     Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost of removal of any of Tenant's refuse
     and rubbish.

     2. ADDITIONAL CHARGES. Landlord may impose a charge equal to Landlord's
actual incremental cost, without mark-up, in providing such utilities or
services, including, without limitation any necessary maintenance personnel
costs, for any utilities and services, including without limitation any
necessary air-conditioning, electric current, water and janitorial service,
required to be provided by Landlord by reason of (i) any use of the Premises at
any time other than during Building Standard Hours;

                                      -8-

<PAGE>

(ii) any use beyond what Landlord agrees to furnish as described above; or (iii)
special electrical, cooling and ventilating needs created in certain areas by
hybrid telephone equipment, computers and other similar equipment or uses.

     3. RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant agrees to cooperate at all times with
Landlord and to abide by all reasonable regulations and requirements which
Landlord may prescribe for the use of the utilities and services. Any failure to
pay any excess costs as described above with the next installment of Rent due
after receipt of a statement for such services accompanied by such documentation
as is reasonably sufficient to substantiate such charges, shall constitute a
breach of the obligation to pay Rent under this Lease and shall entitle Landlord
to the rights granted in this Lease for a breach.

     4. NOTICE. To the extent practical, Landlord shall attempt to give Tenant
notice of proposed shutdowns of services.
