NEITHER THESE SECURITIES NOR THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED
OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT
WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. ANY

                              SYMPOSIUM CORPORATION

                      WARRANT FOR THE PURCHASE OF SHARES OF
                                  COMMON STOCK

                                                                  250,000 Shares

                  FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SYMPOSIUM CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation (the "COMPANY"), hereby certifies that INTERNATIONAL MARKETING
ASSOCIATION, INC. or its registered assigns (the "HOLDER") is entitled to
purchase from the Company, subject to the provisions of this Warrant (the
"WARRANT"), including without limitation the provisions regarding vesting set
forth in Section 1(a) below, at any time on or after December 1, 2000 (the
"INITIAL EXERCISE DATE"), and prior to 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the
fifth anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date (the "TERMINATION DATE") Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand (250,000) fully paid and non-assessable shares of the
Common Stock, $.001 par value, of the Company (the "COMMON STOCK"), at an
initial exercise price of $1.75 per share of Common Stock (the "INITIAL PER
SHARE EXERCISE PRICE"). The number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon
exercise of this Warrant and the price to be paid for each share of Common Stock
are subject to possible adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth.
The shares of Common Stock or other securities or property deliverable upon such
exercise as adjusted from time to time are hereinafter sometimes referred to as
the "WARRANT SHARES." The exercise price of a share of Common Stock in effect at
any time and as adjusted from time to time is hereinafter sometimes referred to
as the "PER SHARE EXERCISE PRICE." The Per Share Exercise Price is subject to
adjustment as hereinafter provided.

                  1.       EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

                  (a) This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part, at any
time by its Holder commencing on the Initial Exercise Date and prior to the
Termination Date by presentation and surrender of this Warrant, together with
the duly executed subscription form or "Cashless Exercise" subscription form, as
applicable, and representations and warranties attached at the end hereof, at
the address set forth in Subsection 8(a) hereof, together with payment, by
certified or official bank check or wire transfer payable to the order of the
Company, of the product of (x) the Per Share Exercise Price multiplied by (y)
the number of
<PAGE>   2
Warrant Shares subject to (1) this Warrant or (2) the proportionate part thereof
if exercised in part (such product, the "AGGREGATE EXERCISE PRICE") or by
Cashless Exercise (as defined below) in accordance with Section 1(b); provided,
however, that: (A) anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this Warrant
may be exercised only with respect to Warrant Shares that have vested in
accordance with the Vesting Schedule (the "VESTING SCHEDULE") annexed hereto and
incorporated by reference herein; and (B) the maximum number of Warrant Shares
that the Holder may purchase upon any exercise hereof shall be the amount by
which (x) the total number of vested Warrant Shares as of the date of such
exercise, (which number shall include Warrant Shares, if any, purchased upon any
previous partial exercise of this Warrant or, if such purchase was pursuant to
the Cashless Exercise provisions of Section 1(b) hereof, then such number shall
include the Maximum Number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was
exercised in connection with such previous Cashless Exercise ) (the "PREVIOUSLY
PURCHASED WARRANT SHARES")) exceeds (y) the total number of Previously Purchased
Warrant Shares. Once vested, Warrant Shares may be purchased upon exercise of
this Warrant at any time, or from time to time, prior to the Termination Date.
All numbers of shares referred to in the Vesting Schedule shall be subject to
adjustment as set forth below.

                  (b) Subject to the proviso to the first sentence of Section
1(a) hereof, the Holder of this Warrant may, at its election exercised in its
sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of
making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon
such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to
receive upon such exercise the "NET NUMBER" of shares of Common Stock determined
according to the following formula (a "CASHLESS EXERCISE"):

                  Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)
                               -----------------
                                       B

                  For purposes of the foregoing formula:

                           A = the total number of shares with respect to which
                           this Warrant is then being exercised (the "MAXIMUM
                           NUMBER").

                           B = the Closing Sale Price of one share of the Common
                           Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the
                           date of the Exercise Notice.

                           C = the Per Share Exercise Price then in effect for
                           the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such
                           exercise.

                  "CLOSING SALE PRICE" means, for any security as of any date,
the last closing trade price for such security on the principal market as
reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets.

                   (c) If this Warrant is exercised in part only, the Company
shall, upon presentation of this Warrant upon such exercise (together with the
duly executed subscription form and representations and warranties attached at
the end hereof), execute and deliver (along with the certificate for the Warrant
Shares purchased) a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder hereof to
purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder (which in the

                                     - 2 -
<PAGE>   3
event of a "Cashless Exercise " pursuant to Section 1(b), shall equal the
difference obtained by subtracting the aggregate number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise hereof and the Maximum Number of Warrant Shares) upon the
same terms and conditions as herein set forth. Upon proper exercise of this
Warrant, the Company promptly shall deliver certificates for the Warrant Shares
to the Holder duly legended as authorized by the subscription form. No
fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon
exercise of this Warrant; provided that the Company shall pay to the holder of
the Warrant cash in lieu of such fractional shares.

                  2. RESERVATION OF WARRANT SHARES; FULLY PAID SHARES; TAXES.
The Company hereby represents that it has, and until expiration of this Warrant
agrees that it shall, reserve for issuance or delivery upon exercise of this
Warrant, such number of shares of the Common Stock as shall be required for
issuance and/or delivery upon exercise of this Warrant in full, and agrees that
all Warrant Shares so issued and/or delivered will be validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable, and further agrees to pay all taxes and charges (other than
income taxes) that may be imposed upon such issuance and/or delivery. The
Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in
respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Stock (or
other securities or assets) in a name other than that in which this Warrant is
registered, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the
person requesting such issue has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or
has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid
or need not be paid.

                  3. PROTECTION AGAINST DILUTION.

                  (a) In case the Company shall hereafter (i) pay a dividend or
make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii)
subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares
or (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of
shares (each of (i) through (iii) an "Action"), then the Per Share Exercise
Price shall be adjusted to be equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such Action and the denominator of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following such Action, multiplied
by (ii) the Per Share Exercise Price immediately prior to such Action. An
adjustment made pursuant to this Subsection 3(a) shall become effective
immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and
shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a
subdivision, combination or reclassification.

                  (b) Whenever the Per Share Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant
to subsection 3(a), the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon payment of the
Aggregate Exercise Price shall be adjusted to be equal to the product of the
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price
immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the Aggregate Exercise Price payable immediately prior to such
adjustment and the denominator which shall be the Aggregate Exercise Price
payable immediately after such adjustment.

                  (c) In the event of any capital reorganization or
reclassification, or any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party
other than a merger or consolidation in

                                     - 3 -
<PAGE>   4
which the Company is the continuing corporation, or in case of any sale or
conveyance to another entity of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, or in the case of any statutory exchange of
securities with another corporation (including any exchange effected in
connection with a merger of a third corporation into the Company), the Holder of
this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive on the exercise of this
Warrant the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which the
Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive immediately after such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange,
sale or conveyance had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the
effective date of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
statutory exchange, sale or conveyance and in any such case, if necessary,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions set
forth in this Section 3 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of
the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions set forth in this
Section 3 shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may
reasonably be, in relation to any shares of stock or other securities or
property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of this Warrant. The above
provisions of this Subsection 3(c) shall similarly apply to successive
reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, statutory
exchanges, sales or conveyances. The issuer of any shares of stock or other
securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of this Warrant
shall be responsible for all of the agreements and obligations of the Company
hereunder. A sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company for a
consideration consisting primarily of securities shall be deemed a consolidation
or merger for the foregoing purposes.

                  (d) No adjustment in the Per Share Exercise Price shall be
required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at
least $0.05 per share of Common Stock; provided, however, that any adjustments
which by reason of this Subsection 3(d) are not required to be made shall be
carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All
calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the
nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. Anything in this Section 3 to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled to make such
reductions in the Per Share Exercise Price, in addition to those required by
this Section 3, as it in its discretion shall deem to be advisable in order that
any stock dividend, subdivision of shares or distribution of rights to purchase
stock or securities convertible or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the
Company to its stockholders shall not be taxable.

                  (e) Whenever the Per Share Exercise Price is adjusted as
provided in this Section 3 and upon any modification of the rights of a Holder
of Warrants in accordance with this Section 3, the Chief Financial Officer, or
equivalent officer, of the Company shall prepare a certificate setting forth the
Per Share Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares after such adjustment
or the effect of such modification, a brief statement of the facts requiring
such adjustment or modification and the manner of computing the same and cause
copies of such certificate to be mailed to the Holder.

                  (f) If, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this
Section 3, the Holder of any Warrant thereafter surrendered for exercise shall
become entitled to receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock or
shares of Common Stock and other capital stock of the Company, the Board of
Directors (whose determination shall be conclusive and shall be described in a
written notice to the Holder of any Warrant promptly after such adjustment)
shall

                                     - 4 -
<PAGE>   5
determine the allocation of the adjusted Per Share Exercise Price between or
among shares or such classes of capital stock or shares of Common Stock and
other capital stock.

                  (g) Notwithstanding anything else contained herein to the
contrary, the Per Share Exercise Price shall not be decreased to be equal to an
amount less than the authorized par value of the Company as in effect at the
time of the exercise of this Warrant under Section 1 hereof.

                  4. LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY. This Warrant may not be sold,
transferred, assigned or hypothecated by the Holder except in compliance with
the provisions of the Act and the applicable state securities "blue sky" laws,
and is so transferable only upon the books of the Company which it shall cause
to be maintained for such purpose. The Company may treat the registered Holder
of this Warrant as he or it appears on the Company's books at any time as the
Holder for all purposes. The Company shall permit any Holder of a Warrant or his
duly authorized attorney, upon written request during ordinary business hours,
to inspect and copy or make extracts from its books showing the registered
holders of Warrants. All Warrants issued upon the transfer or assignment of this
Warrant will be dated the same date as this Warrant, and all rights of the
holder thereof shall be identical to those of the Holder.

                  5. LOSS, ETC., OF WARRANT. Upon receipt of evidence
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company and, if
requested by the Company, of a bond reasonably satisfactory to the Company, if
lost, stolen or destroyed, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant,
if mutilated, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant
of like date, tenor and denomination.

                  6. INVESTMENT INTENT.

                  (a) The Holder represents, by accepting this Warrant, that it
understands that this Warrant and any securities obtainable upon exercise of
this Warrant have not been registered for sale under Federal or state securities
laws and are being offered and sold to the Holder pursuant to one or more
exemptions from the registration requirements of such securities laws. The
Holder is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). In the absence of an effective
registration of such securities or an exemption therefrom, any certificates for
such securities shall bear the legend set forth on the first page hereof. The
Holder understands that it must bear the economic risk of his investment in this
Warrant and any securities obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant for an
indefinite period of time, as this Warrant and such securities have not been
registered under Federal or state securities laws and therefore cannot be sold
unless subsequently registered under such laws, unless as exemption from such
registration is available.

                  (b) The Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, represents
to the Company that he is acquiring this Warrant and will acquire any securities
obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant for its own account for investment and
not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in
violation of the Act. The Holder agrees that this Warrant and any such
securities will not be sold or otherwise transferred unless (i) a registration
statement with

                                     - 5 -
<PAGE>   6
respect to such transfer is effective under the Act and any applicable state
securities laws or (ii) such sale or transfer is made pursuant to one or more
exemptions from the Act.

                  7. STATUS OF HOLDER. This Warrant does not confer upon the
Holder any right to vote or to consent to or receive notice as a stockholder of
the Company, as such, in respect of any matters whatsoever, or any other rights
or liabilities as a stockholder, prior to the exercise hereof.

                  8. NOTICES. No notice or other communication under this
Warrant shall be effective unless, but any notice or other communication shall
be effective and shall be deemed to have been given if, the same is in writing
and is mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to:

                  (a) the Company at 410 Park Avenue, Suite 830, New York, New
         York 10022 or such other address as the Company has designated in
         writing to the Holder; or

                  (b) the Holder at 460 Investors Place, #402, Virginia Beach,
         Virginia 23452

         or such other address as the Holder has designated in writing to the
         Company.

                  9. HEADINGS. The headings of this Warrant have been inserted
as a matter of convenience and shall not affect the construction hereof.

                  10. APPLICABLE LAW. This Warrant shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving
effect to principles of conflicts of law thereof.

                  The undersigned Holder hereby represents and warrants to the
Company as follows:

                  a. The Holder is acquiring the Warrant Shares for its own
account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards or in
connection with public sale or distribution thereof. The Warrant Shares may not
be offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Act and in compliance with the
applicable securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, or pursuant to an
opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not
required and such compliance has been obtained. The Company may affix an
appropriate legend to any certificate(s) representing the Warrant Shares to
reflect the foregoing.

                  b. The Holder understands that the Warrant Shares are being
offered and sold by the Company in reliance on an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and equivalent state securities
and "blue sky" laws, and that the Company is relying upon the accuracy of, and
the compliance by the Holder with its representations and warranties set forth
in this letter, in determining the availability of such exemption and the
eligibility of the Holder to acquire the Warrant Shares.

<PAGE>   9
                  c. The Holder acknowledges that it has had access to the
reports and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
and that it has been given an opportunity to ask questions of, and to receive
answers from, the Company's management personnel concerning the Company's
business and the Warrant Shares. The Holder has been provided access to all
materials relating to the business, financial position and results of operations
of the Company, and all other materials requested by the Holder by enable it to
make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the
Warrant Shares. The Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters that he is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an
investment in the Company's securities.

(i) an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D
under the Securities Act, (ii) experienced in making investments of the kind
represented by the Warrant Shares, and (iii) capable, by reason of its business
and financial experience, of evaluating the relative merits and risks of an
investment in the Warrant Shares.

                  e. The Holder understands that an investment in the Warrants
involves a high degree of risk, and has the financial ability to bear the
economic risk of this investment in the Warrants, including a complete loss of
such investment. The Holder has adequate means for providing for its current
financial requirements and has no need for liquidity with respect to this
investment.

                                VESTING SCHEDULE

                  The Warrant Shares, all of which shall have an Initial Per
Share Exercise Price of $1.75 per share, shall vest as follows; provided,
however, that if International Marketing Association, Inc. ("IMA"), Daryl
DeCroix or any entity controlled either directly or indirectly by IMA or Daryl
DeCroix sells an order to any party other than Media Outsourcing, Inc., then no
Warrant Shares shall vest for the three-month period in which such sale is made,
and no further Warrant Shares shall vest after the date of such sale.

                  1. In the event that during the three-month period commencing

$1,500,000, net of cancellations (such average monthly order volume, as so
calculated, "Order Volume"), and (b) maintains a minimum paid-to-maturity rate
("Rate") of sixty percent (60%), Twenty Thousand Eight Hundred Thirty Three
(20,833) Warrant Shares shall vest on April 1, 2001.

                  2. In the event that during the three-month period commencing

                        the above date but Lessee does not take occupancy,

                        Lessor shall designate in writing to Lessee, promptly on
                        the first day of each month, in advance, during the term

                        Thousand, Eight Hundred twenty-four & 67/100
                        Dollars ($22,824.67) (the "Base Rental"), except as

ESCALATION OF BASE
RENTAL                  7.   Lessor and Lessee agree that the amount of the Base
                        Rental payable under this Lease shall be increased
                        during the term of this Lease in the manner hereinafter
                        provided as soon as practicable after January 1 of each
                        year during the term of this Lease (such dates being
                        hereinafter collectively called "Adjustment Dates") to
                        reflect any increase in the costs of goods and services
                        necessary to the operation and maintenance of the
                        building in which the leased premises is located. On the
                        first Adjustment Date (as soon as practicable after
                        January 1, 1997), Lessor shall provide Lessee a copy of
                        the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, U.S.
                        City Average for All Items (1967=100) published by the
                        Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of
                        Labor (hereinafter referred to as the "Index") for the
                        month of December, 1995, and for the month of December,
                        1996 If the Index for the Month of December, 1996, is
                        greater than the Index for December, 1995, Lessee shall
                        also receive a notice from Lessor showing the amount of
                        the monthly Base Rental for the calendar year 1997. Said
                        monthly Base Rental for 1997 shall be computed by
                        multiplying the monthly Base Rental by a fraction, the
                        denominator of which shall be the Index for December,
                        1995 and the numerator of which shall be the Index for
                        December, 1996. On each subsequent Adjustment Date
                        during the term of this Lease, Lessee shall receive the
                        Index for the month of December of the immediately
                        preceding calendar year (the "Current Index") and the
                        Index for the month of December of this calendar year
                        one year prior to the immediately preceding calendar
                        year ("Last Year's Index"). If the Current Index is
                        greater than Last Year's Index, the Monthly Base Rental
                        then in effect shall be increased for the current
                        calendar year and succeeding years, retroactively to
                        January 1, of such current calendar year, to an amount
                        computed by multiplying the then Base Rental (inclusive
                        of any prior adjustment) by a fraction, the denominator
                        of which shall be the Last Year's Index and the
                        numerator of which shall be the Current Index. In no
                        event shall the Base Rental, as increased in accordance
                        herewith, be decreased or adjusted downwards. If the
                        Index shall no longer be published or cannot, following
                        any change in the base year thereof, be appropriately
                        adjusted, then another Index recognized as authoritative
                        shall be substituted therefor by Lessor. Within ten (10)
                        days after each Adjustment Date or as soon as practical
                        Lessor shall provide new rental amount to Lessee. Lessee
                        shall make immediate payment to Lessor of such amount
                        being the increase in Base Rental and continue paying
                        the new monthly rental until the next adjustment period.

ADDITIONAL RENTAL       8.   All payments, other than those previously specified
                        above, as required in this Lease by Lessee to Lessor
                        shall be deemed to be and shall become additional rent
                        hereunder, whether or not the same shall be designated
                        as such, and shall be due and payable along with usual
                        rental payments subject to the same conditions and
                        remedies as exist for said rental payments.

SECURITY DEPOSIT        9.   Prior to occupancy, Lessee will pay to Lessor as a
                        security deposit, the amount of None Dollars ($-0-)
                        Such deposit is refundable to Lessee within 30 days
                        following satisfactory completion of all the terms of
                        this Lease and provided that no defective conditions,
                        other than normal wear and tear, are left unrepaired by
                        Lessee and that Lessee does not owe Lessor any debts.
                        Any portion of said deposit not required to reimburse
                        Lessor for Lessor's expense in repairing defective
                        conditions caused by Lessee or for paying amounts owed
                        by Lessee to Lessor, shall be refunded to the Lessee as
                        provided above.

LATE CHARGES            10.  Any rental due Lessor under this Lease shall be
                        considered past due for purposes hereof on the fifth day
                        of any month, and shall incur a monthly service charge
                        of 1-1/2% per month for that and each subsequent month
                        past due. Any other amounts payable to Lessor under this
                        Lease, with the exception of rent, shall be considered
                        past due 30 days from Lessor's billing date and shall
                        incur a monthly service charge of 1-1/2% for that and
                        each subsequent month past due. (A monthly rate of
                        1-1/2% is equivalent to an annual percentage rate of
                        18%.)

                        such other instruments as may be necessary to protect
                        Lessor in such instances. Upon termination of the Lease,

                        excepted. Lessor will also pay the water rate for water
                        reasonably used on the leased premises. It will also
                        furnish electric current to the leased premises for
                        lighting and business machine purposes only, such as
                        electric typewriters, adding and small calculating
                        machines. Electric current and installation for
                        electronic data processing type equipment shall be at
                        the cost of the Lessee. In no event shall the Lessor be
                        liable for damages from the stopping of service or for
                        any of the fixtures or equipment in said building being
                        out of repair, or for injury to persons or property
                        caused by any defects in the heating, electric, air
                        conditioning equipment or water apparatus, or for any
                        damages arising out of the failure to furnish said
                        heating or air conditioning, water, janitor service or
                        electric current. Lessor shall provide a reasonable
                        amount of parking area, without charge, for Lessee's
                        employees and visitors in areas, as are designated by
                        Lessor from time to time, in the vicinity of the
                        building in which the leased premises are situated. In
                        the event the Lessee utilizes the services provided by
                        Lessor as specified in this Paragraph in amounts or for
                        periods in excess of that provided herein, or in the
                        event the Lessee utilizes electric current or other
                        utilities in excess of the amount which would be
                        typically utilized by a normal business office use of
                        the leased premises, then the Lessor shall have the
                        right to charge Lessee as additional rent a reasonable
                        sum as reimbursement for the direct cost of such
                        additional use or services. In the event of a
                        disagreement at the reasonableness of the amount of such
                        additional rent, the opinion of a qualified local
                        independent professional engineer selected by Lessor
                        shall be binding upon Lessor and Lessee.

REPAIRS BY LESSOR       13.  Lessor shall have no duty to Lessee to make any
                        repairs or improvements to the leased premises except
                        structural repairs necessary for safety and
                        tenantability, and then only if not brought about by any
                        act or neglect of Lessee, its agents, employees or
                        visitors. The Lessor shall not be liable to the Lessee
                        for any damage caused to the Lessee and its property due
                        to the building or any part or appurtenances thereof
                        being improperly constructed or being or becoming out of
                        repair, or arising from the leaking of gas, water, sewer
                        or steam pipes, or from electricity. Lessee agrees to
                        report immediately in writing to Lessor any defective
                        condition in or about the leased premises known to
                        Lessee, and a failure to so report shall make Lessee
                        liable to Lessor for any expense or damage to any
                        property, at any time, in said leased premises or
                        building, from gas, smoke, water, rain, ice, or snow,
                        which may leak into, issue or form from any part of said
                        building of which the premises hereby leased are part,
                        or from the pipes of plumbing work of the same, or from
                        any other place or quarter.

                       REGARDING LESSEE'S USE OF PREMISES

USE OF PREMISES         14.  The premises shall be used and occupied by Lessee
                        solely for the purpose of office space, unless other
                        uses are specifically stated and authorized herein. The
                        premises shall not be used for any illegal purpose nor
                        in violation of any valid regulation of any governmental
                        body, not in any manner to create any nuisance or
                        trespass.

QUIET ENJOYMENT         15.  If Lessee shall pay the rent reserved herein and
                        other amounts to be paid by Lessee to Lessor, and well
                        and faithfully keep, perform and observe all of the
                        covenants, agreements and conditions herein stipulated
                        to be kept, performed and observed by Lessee, Lessee
                        shall at all times during the term of this Lease have
                        the peaceable and quiet enjoyment of said premises
                        without hindrance of Lessor or any person lawfully
                        claiming under Lessor, subject, however, to the terms of
                        this Lease and any mortgage provided for in Paragraph
                        30.

ASSIGNMENT AND
SUBLETTING              16.  Lessee may not, without the prior written consent
                        of Lessor and after first offering to return the
                        premises to Lessor, assign this Lease or any interest
                        thereunder, or sublet the premises or any part thereof,
                        or permit the use of the premises by any party other
                        than the Lessee. Consent to one assignment or sub-lease
                        shall not destroy or waive this provision and all later
                        assignments and sub-leases shall likewise be made only
                        upon the prior written consent of the Lessor.
                        Sub-tenants or Assignees shall become liable to the
                        Lessor for all obligations of the Lessee hereunder,
                        without relieving the Lessee's liability hereunder. No
                        assignment or subletting shall apply or be permitted
                        other than during the initial term of this Lease.
                        Options or extensions, if any, are available exclusively
                        to Lessee.

REPAIRS BY LESSEE       17.  Lessee shall, at its own expense, keep and maintain
                        the said premises and appurtenances and every part
                        thereof in good order and repair except portions of the
                        premises to be repaired by Lessor as provided herein.
                        The Lessee shall make no alterations in, or additions to
                        the premises without first obtaining in writing the
                        Lessor's written consent for such alterations or
                        additions, which shall be at the sole cost of the
                        Lessee. Any such alterations, additions or improvements
                        which shall be made by either Lessor or Lessee and
                        attached to the premises, including carpet, shall be the
                        property of Lessor and shall remain upon and be
                        surrendered with the premises as a part thereof at the
                        termination of this Lease, without disturbance,
                        molestation, or injury.

PROPERTY OF LESSEE      18.  Lessee may (if not in default hereunder) prior to
                        the expiration of this Lease, or any extension thereof,
                        remove all moveable trade fixtures and office furniture
                        which it has placed in the leased premises, provided
                        Lessee repairs all damages to the leased premises caused
                        by such removal; provided, however, that the Lessor
                        shall have at all times a valid first lien for all
                        rentals and other sums of money to become due hereunder
                        from the Lessee and to secure the performance by the
                        Lessee of each and all of the covenants, agreements and
                        conditions hereof, upon all of the personal property of
                        the said Lessee situated in the leased premises, and
                        said property shall not be removed therefrom without the
                        consent of the Lessor until all arrearages in rent as
                        well as any and all other sums of money to become due
                        hereunder shall first have been paid and discharged and
                        until this Lease and all of the covenants, agreements
                        and conditions hereof have been fully performed by
                        Lessee, provided further that the lien herein granted
                        may be foreclosed in the manner and form provided by law
                        for the foreclosure of chattel mortgages or in any other
                        manner provided by law. The statutory lien for rent is
                        not waived, the express contractual lien herein granted
                        being in addition and supplementary thereto. If the
                        Lessee shall fail to remove all effects from said leased
                        premises upon termination of this Lease for any cause
                        whatsoever, Lessor may at its option remove the same in
                        any manner that the Lessor shall choose, store said
                        effects without liability to the Lessee for loss
                        thereof, and the Lessee agrees to pay the Lessor on
                        demand any and all expenses incurred in such removal,
                        including court costs and attorney fees and storage
                        charges on such effects for any length of time the same
                        shall be in the Lessor's possession, or the Lessor may
                        at its option without notice sell said effects or any
                        part of the same at the private sale and without legal
                        process for such price as the Lessor may obtain, and
                        apply the proceeds of such sale upon any amounts due
                        under this Lease from the Lessee to the Lessor and upon
                        the expense incident to the removal and sale of said
                        effects.
<PAGE>   6
DAMAGE OR THEFT OF
PERSONAL PROPERTY       19. Lessee agrees that all personal property brought
                        into the premises shall be at the risk of the Lessee
                        only and that the Lessor shall not be liable for theft
                        thereof or any damage thereto occasioned from any acts
                        of co-tenants, or other occupants of said building or
                        any other person.

GENERAL LIABILITY
OF LESSEE               20. The Lessee agrees to indemnify and hold the Lessor
                        harmless from any injury, expense, damages or claims,
                        whether due to damage to the premises, claims for
                        injuries to the person or property of any other tenant
                        of the building or of any other person rightfully in or
                        about said building for any purpose whatsoever, or
                        administrative or criminal action by a governmental
                        authority, where such injury, expense, damages or claims
                        result either directly or indirectly from the
                        negligence, misconduct or breach of any provision of
                        this Lease by the Lessee, his agent, servants, or
                        employees, or of any other persons entering upon the
                        leased premises under express or implied invitation of
                        the Lessee. The Lessee further agrees to reimburse the
                        Lessor for any costs or expenses, including attorney's
                        fees, which the Lessor may incur in investigating,
                        handling or litigating any such claim by a third person
                        or any action by a governmental authority.

ABANDONMENT OF
PREMISES                21. Lessee agrees not to abandon or vacate the leased
                        premises during the period of this Lease without the
                        prior written approval of Lessor.

RE-LETTING BY LESSOR    22,  Lessor, as Lessee's agent, without terminating this
                        Lease, upon Lessee's breaching this contract, inclusive
                        of abandonment, may at Lessor's option enter upon and
                        rent the leased premises at the best price obtainable by
                        reasonable effort, without advertisement and by private
                        negotiations and for any term Lessor deems proper.
                        Lessee shall be liable to Lessor for the deficiency, if
                        any, between Lessee's rent hereunder and the price
                        obtained by Lessor on re-letting.

HOLDING OVER            23.  In the event of holding over by Lessee subsequent
                        to the expiration or other termination of this Lease and
                        without regard to Lessor's acquiescence or consent,
                        Lessee shall pay as liquidated damages a monthly rent
                        double the monthly rent payable immediately prior to
                        such expiration or termination of this Lease for the
                        duration of such period. Additionally, during such
                        holding over with Lessor's acquiescence and without any
                        express agreement of the parties, the Lessee shall be a
                        tenant on a month-to-month basis which tenancy shall be
                        terminated absolutely and without remedy upon thirty
                        (30) days written notice of such intent by either party.
                        There shall be no renewal of this Lease by operation of
                        law.

GOVERNMENTAL
REQUIREMENTS            24.  Lessee agrees, at its own expense, to promptly
                        comply with all requirements of any legally constituted
                        public authority made necessary by reason of Lessee's
                        occupancy of said premises.

EMINENT DOMAIN          25.  If the whole of the leased premises or such portion
                        thereof as will make the premises unusable for the
                        purposes herein leased, be condemned by any legally
                        constituted authority for any public use or purpose,
                        then in either of said events the term hereby granted
                        shall cease from the time when possession thereof is
                        taken by public authorities, and rental shall be
                        accounted for as between Lessor and Lessee as of that
                        date. Any lesser condemnation shall in no way affect the
                        respective rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessee
                        hereunder. It is expressly agreed that the Lessee shall
                        not have any right or claim to any part of any award
                        made to or received by the Lessor for such taking.

DESTRUCTION OF
DAMAGED PREMISES        26.  If the premises are totally destroyed (or so
                        substantially damaged as to be untenantable) by storm,
                        fire, earthquake, or other casualty, this Lease shall
                        terminate as of the date of such destruction or damage,
                        and rental shall be accounted for as between Lessor and
                        Lessee as of that date. If the premises are damaged but
                        not rendered wholly untenantable by any such casualty or
                        casualties, rental shall abate in such proportion as the
                        use of the premises has been destroyed until the Lessor
                        has restored the premises to substantially the same
                        condition as before damage, whereupon full rental shall
                        recommence. Nothing contained herein shall require
                        Lessor to make such restoration, however, if not deemed
                        advisable in its judgment. Lessor shall make its
                        intentions to restore or not to restore said premises to
                        original condition known to Lessee in writing, within 90
                        days of such occurrence. If Lessor decides against such
                        reconstruction or fails to provide such notice, Lessee
                        may, at its option, cancel this Lease, in which event
                        rent shall be apportioned and paid up to and including
                        the date the leased premises became untenantable if
                        terminated by Lessor, but up to and including the date
                        of termination if terminated by Lessee. If any such
                        repairs, alterations, removal, construction,
                        reconstruction or improvement shall be required by
                        reason of Lessee's use or occupancy of the leased
                        premises, then such action shall be by and at Lessee's
                        expense, and there shall be no termination under said
                        conditions. If renovation be required of the Lessor due
                        to government order or authority not occasioned by
                        Lessee's tenancy, the above
<PAGE>   7
                        provisions shall apply except that Lessor shall have
                        ninety (90) days to comply with same.

CASUALTY INSURANCE      27.  Lessor shall at all times during the term of this
                        Lease, at its expense, maintain a policy or policies
                        insuring said building against loss or damage by fire,
                        explosion, or other hazards and contingencies provided
                        that Lessor shall not be obligated to insure any
                        furniture, equipment, machinery, goods or supplies not
                        covered by this Lease which Lessee may bring or obtain
                        upon the leased premises, or any additional improvements
                        which Lessee may construct thereon. If the annual
                        premiums payable by Lessor for such casualty insurance
                        exceed the standard premium rates due to actions or
                        additional hazards created as a result of Lessee's
                        occupancy. Lessee shall upon receipt of appropriate
                        premium invoices reimburse Lessor for such increase in
                        premiums.

RENOVATION BY LESSOR    28.  If Lessor shall deem it necessary to effect
                        renovations or redecorations of the building in which
                        the leased premises are located, such action shall be
                        made at Lessor's expense and shall not in any way affect
                        Lessee's obligations under this Lease, and Lessee waives
                        all claim for injury, damage or abatement of rent
                        because of such repair, alteration, removal,
                        construction, reconstruction or improvement, provided,
                        however, if such action by Lessor shall render the
                        leased premises untenantable and if Lessor cannot
                        complete such acts within sixty (60) days, either Lessor
                        or Lessee may terminate this Lease, in which event rent
                        shall be apportioned and paid up to and including the
                        date the leased premises became untenantable if
                        terminated by Lessor, but up to and including the date
                        of termination if terminated by Lessee. If any such
                        repairs, alterations, removal, construction,
                        reconstruction or improvement shall be required by
                        reason of Lessee's use or occupancy of the leased
                        premises, then such action shall be by and at Lessee's
                        expense, and there shall be no termination under said
                        conditions. If renovation be required of the Lessor due
                        to governmental order or authority not occasioned by
                        Lessee's tenancy, the above provisions shall apply
                        except that Lessor shall have ninety (90) days to comply
                        with same.

ENTRY BY LESSOR         29.  Lessor may enter the premises at reasonable hours
                        to exhibit the same to prospective purchasers or
                        tenants, to inspect the premises to see that the Lessee
                        is complying with all its obligations hereunder, and to
                        make repairs required of Lessor under the terms hereof
                        or repair to Lessor's adjoining property.

MORTGAGEE'S RIGHTS      30.  This Lease is subject and subordinate in all
                        respects to all first deeds to secure debt and mortgages
                        which may now or hereafter affect Lease or be placed on
                        all or any part of the demised premises. Lessee, at the
                        request of the holder of any such deed to secure debt or
                        mortgage, will attorn within ten (10) days after being
                        so requested, to said holder or to the party designated
                        by said holder, as its direct tenant, and Lessee will
                        execute and deliver any certificate to such effect that
                        such holder or designated party may request. Lessee also
                        agrees that, in the event of such attornment, any
                        payment of rent hereunder by Lessee more than one month
                        in advance shall not be binding as against such holder
                        if a new and identical lease between such holder or its
                        designee, as Lessor, and Lessee, as tenant, had been
                        entered into for the remainder of the term hereof.

EXTERIOR SIGNS          31.  Lessee shall not paint or place signs upon the
                        windows or corridor doors of the premises except with
                        the consent of the Lessor and Lessee shall place no
                        signs upon the outside walls or the roof of the premises
                        or building.

RULES AND REGULATIONS   32.  The Rules and Regulations in regard to the
                        building, attached hereto as Exhibit A, and all rules
                        and regulations which Lessor may hereafter, from time to
                        time, adopt and promulgate for the government and
                        management of said building, are hereby made a part of
                        this Lease and shall, during the said term, be in all
                        things observed and performed by the Lessee and by the
                        Lessee's clerks, employees, servants, and agents. Lessee
                        does hereby accept and agree to abide by and uphold the
                        Rules and Regulations as shown in Exhibit A. Insofar as
                        the attached standard Rules and Regulations conflict
                        with any of the terms and provisions of this Lease
                        Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Lease shall
                        control.

                                DEFAULT OF LESSEE

REMEDIES OF LESSOR
FOR NON-COMPLIANCE      33.  In the event:  (a) the rent specified herein is not
                        paid at the time and place when and where due, (b) the
                        premises shall be deserted or vacated, (c) the Lessee
                        shall fail to comply with any term, provision, condition
                        or covenant of this Lease, other than the payment of
                        rent, or any of the rules and regulations now or
                        hereafter established for the government of this
                        building, or (d) any petition is filed by or against
                        Lessee under any section or chapter of the National
                        Bankruptcy Act as amended, (e) Lessee shall become
                        insolvent or make a transfer in fraud of creditors, (f)
                        Lessee shall make an assignment for benefit of
                        creditors, (g) a receiver is appointed for a substantial
                        part of the assets of Lessee, and Lessee does not cure
                        such defaults, with the exception of rental default as
                        provided for
<PAGE>   8
                        above, within thirty (30) days after notice to the
                        Lessee of such failure to comply; and upon the
                        occurrence of any one or more of the foregoing, Lessor
                        shall have the option to proceed according to one or
                        more of the following courses of action:

                        (a) Terminate this Lease, in which event Lessee shall
                            immediately surrender the leased premises to Lessor,
                            but if Lessee shall fail to do so, Lessor may,
                            without further notice and without prejudice to any
                            other remedy Lessor may have for possession or
                            arrearages in rent, enter upon the leased premises
                            and expel or remove Lessee and its effects, by force
                            if necessary, without being liable to prosecution or
                            any claim for damages therefor; and Lessee agrees to
                            indemnify Lessor for all loss and damage which
                            Lessor may suffer by reason of such termination,
                            whether through inability to re-let the leased
                            premises, or through decrease in rent, or otherwise;
                            and/or

                        (b) Declare the entire amount of the rent which would
                            become due and payable during the remainder of the
                            term of this Lease to be due and payable
                            immediately, in which event, Lessee agrees to pay
                            the same at once, together with all rents
                            theretofore due, at Lessor's address as provided
                            herein; provided, however, that such payment shall
                            not constitute a penalty or forfeiture or liquidated
                            damages, but shall merely constitute payment in
                            advance of the rent for the remainder of the said
                            term. The acceptance of such payment by Lessor shall
                            not constitute a waiver of any failure of Lessee
                            thereafter occurring to comply with any term,
                            provision, condition or covenant of this Lease;
                            and/or

                        (c) Enter the leased premises as the agent of the
                            Lessee, by force if necessary, without being liable
                            to prosecution or any claim for damages therefore,
                            and re-let the leased premises as the agent of the
                            Lessee, and receive the rent therefor, and the
                            Lessee shall pay the Lessor any deficiency that may
                            arise by reason of such re-letting on demand at the
                            office of the Lessor in          ; and/or

                        (d) As agent of the Lessee, do whatever the Lessee is
                            obligated to do by the provisions of this Lease and
                            may enter the leased premises, by force if
                            necessary, without being liable to prosecution or
                            any claims for damages therefor, in order to
                            accomplish this purpose. The Lessee agrees to
                            reimburse the Lessor immediately upon demand for any
                            expenses which the Lessor may incur in thus
                            affecting compliance with this Lease on behalf of
                            the Lessee, and the Lessee further agrees that the
                            Lessor shall not be liable for any damages resulting
                            to the Lessee from such action, whether caused by
                            the negligence of the Lessor or otherwise.

                        Pursuit by Lessor of any of the foregoing remedies shall
                        not preclude the pursuit of any of the other remedies
                        herein provided or any other remedies provided by law.

                        No act or thing done by the Lessor or its agents during
                        the term hereby granted shall be deemed an acceptance of
                        a surrender of said leased premises, and no agreement to
                        accept a surrender of said leased premises shall be
                        valid unless the same be made in writing and subscribed
                        by the Lessor. The mention in this Lease of any
                        particular remedy shall not preclude the Lessor from any
                        other remedy the Lessor might have, either in law or in
                        equity, nor shall the waiver of or redress for any
                        violation of any covenant or condition in this Lease
                        contained or any of the rules and regulations set forth
                        herein, or hereafter adopted by the Lessor, prevent a
                        subsequent act, which would have originally constituted
                        a violation, from having all the force and effect of an
                        original violation. In case it should be necessary or
                        proper for Lessor to bring any action under this Lease,
                        or to consult, or place said Lease or any amount payable
                        by Lessee hereunder, with an attorney concerning or for
                        the enforcement of any of the Lessor's rights hereunder,
                        then Lessee agrees in each and any such case to pay to
                        Lessor a reasonable attorney's fee. The receipt by the
                        Lessor of rent with knowledge of the breach of any
                        covenant in this Lease contained shall not be deemed a
                        waiver of such breach. In the event of any default of
                        Lessee as defined herein during the term of this Lease,
                        or any renewal thereof, Lessor, in addition to but not
                        in lieu of or in limitation of, any other right or
                        remedy provided to Lessor under the terms of this Lease
                        or otherwise, shall have the right to be immediately
                        repaid by Lessee the unamortized amount of all sums
                        expended by Lessor in connection with preparing or
                        improving the leased premises to Lessee's specification,
                        such payment to be in a principal amount equal to the
                        unamortized outstanding balance of such sums on the date
                        of said default, said unamortized outstanding balance to
                        be determined by multiplying the amount of
                        $______________, which was the amount expended by Lessor
                        in preparing or improving the premises to Lessee's
                        specifications, times a fraction, the numerator of which
                        shall be the number of full calendar months remaining in
                        the term from the date of said default and the
                        denominator of which shall be the total number of full
                        calendar months in the term. Lessee hereby promises to
                        pay the unamortized outstanding balance calculated in
                        accordance with this provision, together with interest
                        on
<PAGE>   9
                        said amount at the rate of 8% per annum "add on," from
                        after the date of default, on demand of Lessor.

EFFECT OF TERMINATION
OF LEASE                34.  No termination of the Lease prior to the normal
                        ending thereof, by lapse of time or otherwise, shall

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

SEVERABILITY            36.  If any clause or provision of this Lease contract
                        is illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or
                        future laws effective during the term of this Lease,
                        then and in that event, it is the intention of the
                        parties hereto that the remainder of this Lease shall
                        not be affected thereby, and it is also the intention of
                        the parties to this Lease contract that in lieu of each
                        clause or provision of this Lease contract that is
                        illegal, invalid or unenforceable, there be added as a
                        part of this Lease contract a clause or provision as
                        similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or
                        unenforceable clause or provision as may be possible and
                        be legal, valid and enforceable. If such invalidity is,
                        in the sole determination of Lessor, essential to the
                        rights of both parties, Lessor shall have the right to
                        terminate this Lease on written notice to Lessee.

CUMULATIVE RIGHTS       37.  All rights, powers and privileges conferred
                        hereunder upon the parties hereto shall be cumulative
                        but not restrictive to those given by law.

ATTORNEY'S FEES AND
HOMESTEAD               38.  If any rent owing under this Lease is collected by

                        fifteen percent (15%) thereof as attorney's fees. Lessee
                        waives all homestead rights and exemptions which it may
                        have under any law as against any obligation owing under
                        this Lease. Lessee hereby assigns to Lessor its
                        homestead and exemption.

                        parties and no representations, inducements, promises or
                        agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties not
                        embodied herein shall be of any force or effect.  No
                        failure of the Lessor to exercise any power given the

                        the Lessee of any obligation hereunder, and no custom or
                        practice of the parties at variance with the terms
                        hereof shall constitute a waiver of the Lessor's right
                        to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof.

                        shall pass out of Lessor; Lessee has only a usufruct,
                        not subject to levy and sale, and not assignable by

RELOCATION              43.  If the premises leased and occupied by Lessee under
                        this Agreement are less than 50% of a full floor, then

                        space of equal or greater kind and quality, if
                        necessary, in order to accommodate a tenant whose space
                        requirements are equal to or exceed 50% of a full floor.
                        Said relocation shall be at the sole expense of Lessor,

JUDICIAL
INTERPRETATION          44.  Should any of the provisions of this Lease
                        Agreement require judicial interpretation, it is agreed
                        that the court interpreting or construing the same shall
                        not apply a presumption that the terms of any such
                        provision shall be more strictly construed against one
                        party by reason of the rule of construction that a
                        document is to be construed most strictly against the
                        party who itself or through its agent prepared the same,
                        it being agreed that the agents of all parties have
                        participated in the preparation of the special
                        stipulations of this Agreement.
