between K/B FUND IV, a Delaware general partnership, with an office at 1437

a Delaware corporation ("Tenant").

                         ARTICLE ONE - LEASE OF PREMISES

         Section 1.01 Lease of Premises.

         (a)      Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases
from Landlord, upon and subject to the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions
and conditions of this Lease, for the term and at the rent hereinafter stated,
the premises referred to in subsection (b) below (the "Leased Premises" and
"Premises") in the building, together with parking spaces as hereinafter
provided and certain non-exclusive rights to the parking garage and related
improvements known as the Boulder Towers, 1437 South Boulder, Tulsa, Oklahoma
74119 (the "Building").

         (b)      The Premises shall include a total of 92,344 rentable square
feet (rsf) of demised office space as more particularly described on the Floor

Center Space and the Storage Space) described above is approximately 114,685
rentable square feet. The rentable area of the Building is 521,802 rentable

full floors and for partial floors from the exterior face of the Premises to the
center of partitions which separate the Premises from adjoining premises.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to measure the
Premises within sixty (60) days from the Effective Date using the same standards
(i.e. add-on factors and other similar assumptions) as used by Landlord. Upon
Landlord's verification of Tenant's measurement, the rental area of the Premises
will be adjusted and rent shall be adjusted for the entire term of this Lease
based on Tenant's measurement.

         (c)      This Lease includes the right of Tenant to use the Common
Building Facilities (as defined below) in common with other tenants in the

elevators, fire stairs, telephone and electric closets, aisles, walkways, truck
docks, plazas, courts, restrooms, service areas, lobbies, landscaped areas, and
all other common and service areas of the land and the Building intended for
such use. Floors wholly occupied by Tenant shall not have any facilities which
shall be used in common with other tenants, except for (i) fire stairs and (ii)
mechanical, equipment and janitorial rooms (iii) HVAC System including fans and
ducts, and (iv) general service areas for Landlord's exclusive use serving the
Building generally. Use of the Common Building Facilities is subject to rules
and regulations reasonably promulgated and generally applied to all tenants
uniformly by the Landlord. The rules and regulations promulgated by Landlord
shall not modify or amend or be inconsistent with the provisions of this Lease,
nor shall such rules or regulations require the payment or expenditure of
additional monies by Tenant.

         (e)      The term "Boulder Towers" and "Building" means all of the land
and improvements thereon included within the office projects known as the
Boulder Towers, 1437 South Boulder Street, Tulsa, Oklahoma as described on

Common Building Facilities and any and all driveways, roadways, sidewalks,
landscaped area and other facilities and amenities from time to time located
within The Boulder Towers Complex which are all for the common use of all
occupants and business visitors of The Boulder Towers.

         (f)      Landlord is the owner of fee simple title to the Building and
the Complex and the person executing this Lease on behalf of Landlord has the
full authority to execute this Lease.

                               ARTICLE TWO - TERM

         Section 2.01 Initial Term. This Lease is effective as of the date
hereof. The initial term of this Lease (the "Initial Term") shall commence on
the Term Commencement Date (as defined in Section 3.01 below) and shall
terminate on midnight of last day of the seventy-second (72nd) month following
the (i) the Term Commencement Date, if the Term Commencement Date occurs on the
first day of a calendar month, or (ii) if not, the first day of the calendar
month immediately following the calendar month containing the Term Commencement
Date (the "Expiration Date") or on such earlier date on which the term may
expire or be terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Lease or pursuant to
law.

         Section 2.02 Renewal Term.

         (a)      Provided Tenant is not then in default in any of its material
obligations under this Lease after applicable notice and curative periods have
expired, Tenant shall have the option to renew the term of this Lease as to all
of the Premises for a one (1) five (5) year renewal term (the "Renewal Term").
Such option shall be exercised by written notice to Landlord given at least nine
(9) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term. The Renewal Term shall

<PAGE>

same covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions as are contained
herein for the Initial Term, except as expressly provided herein to the contrary
and except for such as are, by their terms, inapplicable to a Renewal Term.
Tenant shall have no further renewal options following the Renewal Term. The
rent payable during the Renewal Term shall be as provided in Article 4 and the
amount of the rent payable during the Renewal Term for Office Space shall be the
Fair Market Value Rate for comparable buildings in the Tulsa area as provided in
Exhibit "E" hereto; provided, however, such Fair Market Value Rate shall not in
any event exceed $15.00 per rentable square foot per year. Additionally, in the
event Tenant exercises its renewal option as set forth in this Paragraph 2.02,
then upon the commencement of the Renewal Term, Landlord shall immediately pay
Tenant an allowance of $344,055 to be used by Tenant for any purpose, including
the reduction of Annual Rental or Additional Rental under this Lease.

         (b)      At any time after the Renewal Term has become effective and
the rent payable during such Renewal Term determined, Landlord and Tenant, upon
request of either, shall execute an agreement supplementary hereto setting out
the date to which such Renewal Term shall extend, the Annual Rental payable
during such Renewal Term and the Premises for such Renewal Term.

         Section 2.03 Term of this Lease. The words "Term of this Lease" and
"Term" shall mean the Initial Term and the Renewal Term which may become
effective pursuant to Section 2.02.

                     ARTICLE THREE - TERM COMMENCEMENT DATE

         Section 3.01 Term Commencement Date.

         (a)      Subject to Sections 3.01(c) and (d) of this Lease, Rent shall
commence and the Term Commencement Date shall occur fourteen (14) days following
the Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements in accordance with Exhibit
B hereto (such date being the "Term Commencement Date"). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, upon the Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements in
portions of the Premises, Landlord shall deliver such completed portions of the
Premises (but only in Half Floor or Full Floor increments) to Tenant for Tenant
to move furniture and equipment into such completed portions of the Premises.
Prior to the Term Commencement Date Tenant shall not pay any Rent while moving
or installing furniture and equipment in such completed portions of the
Premises. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, if at any time
prior to the Term Commencement Date, Tenant commences business operations from
any completed portion of the Premises, then all terms and provisions of the
Lease shall be in full force and effect and Tenant shall pay a proportionate
share of the Rent for the use of such completed portion of the Premises;
provided, however, that such commencement of business operations from any
completed portion of the Premises shall not trigger the Term Commencement Date.
If Tenant commences business operations from any portion of the Premises prior
to the Term Commencement Date, then all other provisions of the Lease (except
for the full payment of Rent [Tenant will only be paying a proportionate share
of the Rent for the use of the portion of the Premises being used by Tenant] and
the commencement of the Term Commencement Date) shall apply and be in full force
and effect.

         (b)      Intentionally Deleted

         (c)      Landlord hereby agrees to use good faith diligent efforts to
Substantially Complete the Tenant Improvements on or before the Completion Date
(defined below). If Landlord does not Substantially Complete the Tenant
Improvements by the Completion Date, then Tenant, as Tenant's sole and exclusive
remedy (except as otherwise set forth in the following sentence), shall be to
receive from Landlord a rent credit equal to one (1) day of free Annual Rental
for every one (1) day that the Tenant Improvements are not Substantially
Completed following the Completion Date. Additionally, Tenant shall have the
right to terminate this Lease by giving Landlord ten (10) days prior written
notice in the event that Landlord fails to Substantially Complete the Tenant
Improvements for the Premises within ninety (90) days following the Completion
Date; provided, however, Tenant shall provide such prior written notice to
Landlord prior to Landlord Substantially Completing the Tenant Improvements. The
term "Completion Date" shall mean that date which is 200 days from the date of
approval of the "Final Plans" (as defined in Exhibit "B") by both Tenant and
Landlord; provided, however, the Completion Date shall be postponed one (1) day
for each day of Tenant Delay and one (1) day for each day that one or more Force
Majeure Events are experienced by Landlord and/or its contractors,
subcontractors and employees.

         (d)      Notwithstanding anything in Paragraph 3.01(b) to the contrary,
if Landlord does not Substantially Complete the Tenant Improvements on or before
October 15, 2003 for any reason other than Tenant Delays, then Tenant shall have
the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to notify Landlord in writing on
or before November 1, 2003, that Tenant will not move into the Premises during
the last two (2) and one-half months of the calendar year 2003, and in such
event, except for any portions of the Premises in which Tenant has commenced
business operations, the Term Commencement Date shall be January 1, 2004 and
Tenant shall not pay Rent for the Premises until January 1, 2004 (provided the
Tenant Improvements are Substantially Completed prior to January 1, 2004). If
Landlord does not Substantially Complete the Tenant Improvements on or before
October 15, 2003 because of Tenant Delays, then Tenant shall not have the right
to delay the Term Commencement Date and/or receive an abatement of Rent for the
Premises until January 1, 2004, and in such event, the Term Commencement Date
and the payment of Rent shall commence upon the delivery of the Premises to
Tenant with the Tenant Improvements being Substantially Complete.

         (e)      Intentionally Deleted

         (f)      Intentionally Deleted.

         (g)      Landlord shall have no obligation to do any demolition,
construction or improvement work with respect to the Premises, except as
provided in Exhibit "B". Landlord makes no express or implied warranties as to
the current condition of the Premises (or any other space subsequently leased by
Tenant) or its suitability for the conduct of Tenant's business, except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Lease including Exhibit "F".

                              ARTICLE FOUR - RENTAL

         Section 4.01 Annual Rental. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rent, at
the office of the Building or elsewhere as directed from time to time by
Landlord's written notice to Tenant, a base rental (the "Annual Rental") in the
amounts set forth on Exhibit "C". The Annual Rental shall be payable in equal
monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each and every

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

month of the Term of this Lease, the first such payment becoming due and payable
on the Term Commencement Date as to the space leased by Tenant on the Term
Commencement Date. Also, a prorated monthly installment shall be paid, if the
Term Commencement Date is other than the first day of a month or if the Term of
this Lease terminates on a day other than the last day of a month.

         Section 4.02 Additional Rental.

         (a)      For calendar year 2004 and for each calendar year thereafter
Tenant shall pay as additional rental (together with all sums other than Annual
Rental payable by Tenant under this Lease), (the "Additional Rental") for each
Operating Expense Year (as hereinafter defined) Tenant's Share (as hereinafter
defined) of the increase, if any, in Operating Expenses as defined in Exhibit
"D" hereto paid, or incurred by Landlord for the operation, repair and
maintenance of the Building, Building Parking Garage, Common Building
Facilities, and the Additional Parking Area in excess of the Operating Expense
Base as hereinafter defined. As of the Effective Date of this Lease, the total
rentable area of the leasable space within the Building is 518,185 square feet
(exclusive of the Data Center Space); therefore, as of the effective date of
this Lease, the initial Tenant's Share is 21.29%. Such Additional Rental shall
be payable by Tenant to Landlord as hereinafter provided.

         (b)      The term "Operating Expense Year" shall mean the calendar year
2004. If a Term Commencement Date for space leased by Tenant occurs on a date
other than January 1 or the Term of this Lease terminates or expires on a date
other than December 31, the Additional Rental for the pertinent Operating
Expense Year for such space shall be prorated based upon the number of days in
such Operating Expense Year occurring after such Term Commencement Date or
before the termination or expiration of the Term of this Lease, as applicable.

         (c)      The term "Tenant's Share" shall mean that number, stated as a
percentage above in Section 4.02(a). In the event of any change in the area of
the Premises or the Building, Tenant's Share shall be adjusted to reflect such
change or event on a prorated, daily basis, determined by dividing the number of
rentable square feet in the Premises by the actual number of square feet of
rentable area then leased in the Building.

         (d)      The term "Operating Expense Base" shall mean the amount of
Operating Expenses (as defined in Exhibit "D" hereto) for the calendar year
2003. On or before April 1, 2004, Landlord will submit a statement setting forth
the computation of Operating Expenses for the calendar year 2003.

         (e)      Landlord's "Operating Statement" shall mean a statement
setting forth (1) the Operating Expenses for such Operating Expense Year,
showing in detail the amount of each item included in Operating Expenses, (2) a
detailed computation of any Additional Rental for such Operating Expense Year
and (3) a reconciliation of the actual Additional Rental payable by Tenant for
such year with the estimated Additional Rental paid by Tenant for such year.
Each Operating Statement shall be furnished by Landlord to Tenant not later than
April 1 of the calendar year following the Operating Expense Year to which such
statement relates.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

         (f)      Beginning with January 1, 2005, and for each calendar year
thereafter during the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall provide Tenant on or
before April 1 of such year with a comparison of the projected Operating
Expenses for the year and the Operating Expense Base and the projected Tenant's
Share (subject to the five percent (5%) per year limitation set forth in Section
4.02(g) below) of any positive differences between them. Commencing on January 1
of each year, Tenant shall pay one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant's Share of such
positive difference each month during the year. If Tenant's Additional Rental
for Operating Expenses reflected in the Operating Statement for any Operating
Expense Year is greater than the amounts actually paid by Tenant for such
Operating Expense Year, Tenant shall pay Landlord Tenant's Share of such
difference within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Operating Statement for
such Operating Expense Year. If Tenant's Additional Rental for Operating
Expenses reflected in the Operating Statement for any Operating Expense Year is
less than the amounts actually paid by Tenant for such Operating Expense Year,
such difference shall be credited to Tenant's next payment(s) of Annual Rental,
unless the Term has expired, in which event such difference shall be paid by
Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days of delivery of the Operating
Statement.

         (g)      As defined in Exhibit "D", Operating Expenses include taxes,
utilities and insurance payable by Landlord with respect to The Boulder Towers
Complex. In no event shall the dollar amount of Tenant's Share of increases in
Operating Expenses during the Term of this Lease exceed the percentage of five
percent (5%) per year over equivalent amount for the base amount established in
2003. The Operating Statement to be provided by Landlord for each Operating
Expense Year shall separately set forth all Operating Expenses and then shall
apply the five percent (5%) cap as set forth above, if applicable, and such sum
shall be the Operating Expenses for such Operating Expense Year for the purposes
of this Lease. In no event shall Tenant's Annual Rental be reduced, nor shall
Landlord owe any amount to Tenant, if, for any reason, Operating Expenses for
any Operating Expense Year are less than the Operating Expense Base.

         (h)      Landlord shall permit Tenant, at any reasonable time after
reasonable notice, to inspect and do a complete audit at Tenant's sole expense
of all of the books of accounts and records of Landlord to the extent reasonably
required to establish Operating Expenses. Tenant may not request such an audit
more than once per calendar year. If Tenant shall ask for an audit to be made,
and if Operating Expenses for any period shall be found to be overstated or
understated, then Landlord shall pay Tenant the amount of overpayment, or Tenant
shall pay to Landlord the amount of the underpayment (less Tenant's actual third
party audit costs up to a maximum amount of $5,000), as the case may be,
together with interest thereon at the rate specified in Section 8.02 (b) of this
Lease, from the date of such overpayment or underpayment to the date the
overpayment or underpayment is refunded or paid. Tenant's right to make such an
audit with respect to any calendar year shall expire eighteen (18) months after
Landlord's Operating Statement for the calendar year shall have been delivered
to Tenant, and each such Operating Statement shall be final and binding on
Tenant and shall, as between the parties, be conclusively deemed correct, at the
end of such eighteen (18) months, unless prior thereto Tenant has served
Landlord with a notice challenging the accuracy of same. In no event shall
Tenant conduct an audit of Operating Expenses using an accountant or other third
party who is being paid, compensated or reimbursed on a contingency fee basis.

<PAGE>

         (i)      Additional Rental shall also include any other sums due
Landlord from Tenant under the provisions of this Lease other than Annual
Rental.

         (j)      The term "Rent" shall mean Annual Rental and Additional
Rental.

         Section 4.03 Real Estate Taxes, Assessed Valuation.

         (a)      If Landlord fails to pay any real estate tax or assessment
includable in Operating Expenses prior to the time that any penalty or interest
may be charged, any penalty or interest levied shall not be included by Landlord
in Operating Expenses for purposes of calculating Tenant's Additional Rental.

         (b)      Landlord may petition for reduction of the assessed valuation
of the Building and the land comprising the Boulder Towers Complex, claim a
refund of real estate taxes or assessments or otherwise challenge the validity
or applicability of any real estate tax, assessment or similar or related laws.
Tenant shall receive its proportionate share of any refund of real estate taxes
or assessments within 30 days from the date Landlord receives the same, or, in
its sole discretion, Tenant may apply such refund against Annual Rental or
Additional Rental under this Lease.

                             ARTICLE FIVE - SERVICES

         Section 5.01 Standard of Operations.

         (a)      Landlord shall at all times operate, repair and maintain the
Building and the Building Parking Garage in a first class manner and in
accordance with a standard at least as high as conducted and customarily
followed in the operation and maintenance of office buildings similar to the
Building and with similar tenants in the Tulsa area ("Comparable Buildings")
and, without limiting the foregoing, shall provide the specific facilities,
utilities and services set forth in this Article. Notwithstanding the foregoing
in this Section 5.01(a), Landlord shall, at a minimum, operate and maintain the
Building and the Complex in the same manner as the Building is operated and
maintained on the Effective Date.

         (b)      The office space in the Building, other than the space
occupied by Tenant, shall be leased only to tenants who are similar in character
to those commonly found in Comparable Buildings. Ground floor retail space, if
any, may be leased to commercial occupants of the following character: banks,
restaurants, department stores, general office use, telephone switch sites, and
retail merchants and other tenants commonly found in office and retail space in
Comparable Buildings. Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) lease space
in the Building to a first-class club facility.

         (c)      Tenant shall be entitled to utilize the large conference room
and the two smaller break-out rooms located on the ground floor of the Building
for its periodic special business meetings. Tenants use of these facilities
shall be free of any room charge. Tenant shall be responsible for all set-up and
clean up required by Tenant's use. Tenant's rights shall be subject to
availability and advance scheduling with Landlord and shall be exercised in
common with Landlord and other tenants in the Building. Landlord may relocate or
alter the meeting rooms; provided however that any altered or relocated meeting
rooms shall contain substantially similar

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

seating capacities and finishes as the current meeting rooms. Subject to
Landlord's prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, Tenant shall have the right to install remote cameras in the
elevator lobbies on those Full Floors of the Leased Premises.

         (d)      Landlord shall at all times operate, maintain and repair the
Additional Parking Areas in a first class manner and in accordance with
standards at least as high as similar parking areas in Comparable Buildings.
Landlord will install and maintain reasonable lighting in the Building Parking
Garage and in the Additional Parking Areas with at least the same illumination
as exist in similar parking areas in Comparable Buildings.

         (e)      Landlord's failure to comply with its obligations in Section
5.01 (a) only shall be deemed an interruption of Building Services as set forth
in Section 5.08(a) of this Lease, which shall entitle Tenant to all remedies
expressly set forth in Section 5.08(a) of this Lease.

         Section 5.02 Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning.

         (a)      Landlord shall provide a heating, ventilating and air
conditioning system ("HVAC") meeting the requirements of Exhibit "F". Landlord
shall furnish HVAC services as reasonably required for Tenant's comfortable
general office use of the Premises from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. (Landlord shall
turn on the HVAC system of the Building by 6:00 a.m. on Tenant's floors to
enable the comfortable use and normal occupancy of the Premises to be met by
7:00 a.m.) Mondays through Fridays (excluding holidays) and from 8:00 a.m. to
1:00 p.m. on Saturday ("Business Hours"). Notwithstanding anything in this Lease
to the contrary, Tenant shall not create within the Premises a working
environment with a density greater than six (6) persons per 1,000 square feet of
rentable area. For purposes of this Lease, holidays shall be indicated in
writing by Landlord annually (the "Building Holiday Schedule") which shall not
exceed nine (9) holidays a year unless consented to by Tenant. Tenant shall make
arrangements for building services at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance if
the Building is scheduled to be closed.

         (b)      Landlord shall, upon 24 hours' advance notice from Tenant,
furnish Tenant HVAC services at any time or times other than the Business Hours
specified above in accordance with Exhibit "I" hereto.

         (c)      Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section
5.02(c), for HVAC and humidity control systems requiring special operating hours
or other conditions which necessitate the use of self-contained units (the
"Special Systems"), Landlord shall furnish electrical power to Tenant for
Tenant's use in installing and operating, at Tenant's expense, one or more
Special Systems. Tenant shall bear any extra expense incurred by Landlord in
furnishing such power from the Building's system or in expanding the Building's
system, if necessary, to provide such electrical power, including the cost to
Landlord of providing direct and separate metering if either Landlord or Tenant
requests separate metering. Such expansion of the Building's system, if
necessary, shall be subject to the approval of Landlord, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Landlord shall review Tenant's HVAC plans
prior to construction of Tenant's interior improvements and notify Tenant prior
to commencement of such construction if Landlord will charge Tenant for the
installation and or use of any Special Systems. If Landlord fails to notify
Tenant of such charge prior to commencement of such construction, then

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

there shall be no charge to Tenant from Landlord for installation and/or use of
the Special Systems. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant
shall have the right to install at anytime up to 15 supplemental HVAC units (not
to exceed 2 tons each) in conference rooms and offices in the Premises. Such
supplemental units shall not be considered Special Systems and Tenant shall not
bear any expense incurred by Landlord in furnishing power to such supplemental
units. Such supplemental units shall be in addition to any supplemental units
servicing the Data Center Space. Landlord shall repair and maintain such
supplemental units in the manner required by Section 5.01(a) of this Lease.

         Section 5.03 Electrical Service.

         (a)      Landlord shall provide an electrical distribution system for
the Building meeting the requirements of Paragraph II of Exhibit "F". Landlord
shall cause to be furnished and pay for all electricity used in the Premises or
in operating any and all facilities serving the Premises (the cost of same to be
Operating Expenses); provided, however, that Tenant shall not create within the
Premises a working environment with a density of greater than six (6) persons
per 1,000 square feet of rentable area. If Tenant requests excess power for the
Premises in excess of that necessary for general office use in the Premises,
then Tenant shall be responsible for the actual costs incurred by Landlord in
providing for such excess power, including the cost to Landlord of providing any
separate metering, if necessary in Landlord's reasonable discretion. If separate
meters are not used, the amounts chargeable to Tenant under the preceding
provision shall be Landlord's average cost of electric power multiplied by
Tenant's excess usage, as reasonably determined by Landlord's professional
engineer and approved by Tenant's professional engineer.

         (b)      Landlord will notify Tenant at least seventy-two (72) hours in
advance of any planned shut down of the electrical system for repairs or
maintenance. Landlord will attempt to schedule such shut downs for weekends
starting on Friday evenings. Any such shut downs shall not entitle Tenant to any
abatement of Rent during the scheduled shut down period; provided however, in
the event that any such shutdown shall cause the Premises to be without
electrical service during Business Hours for more than one (1) business day in
any Lease Year then Rent shall abate until service is restored. Also, such
planned shutdowns will not exceed four (4) per calendar year.

         Section 5.04 Elevators.

         (a)      Landlord shall provide at least four (4) passenger elevators
to serve the Premises during the Term of this Lease. The passenger elevators
shall be available during all Business Hours, and, at all other times, there
shall be at least one passenger elevator available to serve the Premises subject
to events beyond Landlord's reasonable control and emergencies which may arise.
In the event of such interruption, Landlord shall, as promptly as is practical
under the circumstances, use its best efforts to cause such service to be
reinstated.

         (b)      Subject to repairs and/or replacement of the freight
elevators, Landlord will provide a designated freight elevator in the Building
during Business Hours during the Term of this Lease. Tenant shall provide
Landlord with twenty-four (24) hours' advance notice of its need for a freight
elevator and Landlord shall endeavor to make the freight elevator available to

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

Tenant. Upon such 24 hour notice, Landlord will use reasonable efforts to
provide the freight elevator during Business Hours for thirty (30) consecutive
days for Tenant's initial move into and final move out of the Building. Tenant's
use of the freight elevator is limited by the Building's Rules and Regulations,
which are subject to change, as provided in this Lease. Failure to provide said
notice shall relieve Landlord of its obligation to provide a dedicated freight
elevator.

         Section 5.05 Light Bulbs and Water. Landlord shall furnish and/or
install as an Operating Expense all initial and replacement fluorescent and
incandescent light bulbs and ballast in the Premises, Common Building Facilities
and Building Parking Garage, provided that they are the Building's standard
bulbs and ballasts. Tenant will comply with all of Landlord's reasonable
standards for energy efficient lighting fixtures. Landlord shall review Tenant's
lighting plans prior to construction of Tenant's leasehold improvements.
Landlord shall notify Tenant prior to the commencement of such construction if
any of Tenant's lighting is not Building standard. If Landlord fails to timely
notify Tenant, then Tenant's lighting will be deemed to be Building standard.
Landlord shall amortize the expense over the useful life of the fixtures as an
Operating Expense. Subject to repairs and/or replacements, Landlord shall
furnish water 24 hours for every day of the Term, including chilled and heated
water, at those points of supply provided for general use of all tenants in the
Building as required for lavatory and drinking purposes and such other uses as
are permitted pursuant to Section 7.01. The fire stand pipe water system shall
comply with the National Fire Protection Agency "NFPA Code" and applicable local
laws.

         Section 5.06 Access Control.

         (a)      Landlord shall install and maintain access control for the
Building and Building Parking Garage. Landlord will provide Tenant and its
employees all necessary instructions for use of the access control system to
gain entry to the Building or Building Parking Garage. Such access control may
include electronic access control to the Building and Premises. Landlord's
access control system shall comply with the requirements of all Applicable Laws.

         (b)      EXCEPT FOR LOSSES OR DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF
LANDLORD OR ITS EMPLOYEES, LANDLORD SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO TENANT OR ITS
EMPLOYEES FOR LOSSES DUE TO THEFT OR BURGLARY, OR FOR DAMAGES OR INJURIES CAUSED
BY THE ENTRY OF UNAUTHORIZED PERSONS TO THE BUILDING, BUILDING PARKING GARAGE,
THE PREMISES OR OTHER PORTIONS OF THE BUILDING.

         (c)      Tenant, at its expense and with the prior written approval of
Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, may
install such additional safety, access control and security systems or devices
within or controlling access to the Premises (but not in any lobbies or other
common areas on multi-tenant floors), including, without limitation, smoke
detectors, electronic security devices and auxiliary emergency electric power
supplies, as Tenant may deem reasonably appropriate. Tenant shall have the right
by installation of a card or key system, to control access from all public
elevators to floors wholly occupied by Tenant; provided that (i) Tenant's use of
such system shall not interfere with Landlord's obligations to provide services
or perform any work under this Lease, (ii) Tenant's use of such system does not

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

interrupt ingress and egress of other tenants on multi-tenant floors; and (iii)
Landlord shall have reasonable access to the Premises in emergencies and
provided that such system does not interfere with the proper operating of the
elevator system or require the Landlord to incur additional costs to retrofit or
maintain the elevators in order to accommodate such a system.

         (d)      Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, may employ a licensed,
armed security guard within the Premises ("Guard"). Tenant agrees to indemnify,
protect, defend and hold the Landlord, and its agents, representative, employees
and contractors harmless from and against any and all actions, claims, demands,
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses for the
defense thereof, to the extent arising from the negligence and/or willful
misconduct of the Guard.

         (e)      Any additional safety or security systems installed by Tenant
shall be compatible with Landlord's security and safety systems, programs and
procedures and shall comply with all Applicable Laws.

         Section 5.07 Janitorial Services.

         (a)      Landlord shall provide, as an Operating Expense, the cleaning
and janitorial services ("Janitorial Services") and window cleaning services set
forth in Exhibit "G" hereto. All such Janitorial Services are to be performed
during non-Business Hours. Tenant shall have the right to approve the company
doing the Janitorial Services in the Premises, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall
have the right to hire third parties to perform additional janitorial services
within the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant is at any time
dissatisfied with the Janitorial Services for any reason whatsoever, then Tenant
shall have the right to employ its own janitorial company to provide janitorial
services to the Premises and in such event, Landlord shall deduct the cost of
the Janitorial Services for the Premises from the Operating Expenses charged to
Tenant (including a deduction of such costs included in the Operating Expense
Base).

         Section 5.08 Interruption of Building Services.

         (a)      If, for any reason within Landlord's reasonable control there
is a failure to furnish the facilities, utilities or services specified in
Sections 5.01(a), 5.02(a), (b) and (c), 5.03(a), 5.04(a) and (b), 5.05, and
5.06(a) (collectively the "Building Services"), and, after written notice
thereof by Tenant to Landlord, Landlord does not remedy same within seven (7)
days following delivery of such written notice Landlord shall not be deemed to
be in default of its obligations to provide the Building Services, and Tenant
shall have no remedy hereunder except as may be provided in Section 5.08(a-d)
hereof, provided Landlord has commenced such cure within said seven (7) day
period and thereafter continuously and diligently prosecutes such cure to
completion. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, in the event Landlord has not
remedied the same within thirty (30) days of Tenant's written notice, Tenant
shall have the option to provide such Building Services for its own account
until Landlord remedies the default and performs such obligations in accordance
with this Lease, or, if the failure of Landlord to provide the Building Services
materially and adversely affects Tenant's use of the Premises for thirty (30)
consecutive days, then Tenant may, by written notice to Landlord given at any
time prior to the full resumption of Building Services, terminate this Lease,
and, upon giving such notice, this

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

Lease shall terminate and expire on the date set forth in such notice, which
date shall not be more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such
notice. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, should the
interruption of Building Services be caused by either (i) fire or other casualty
or (ii) condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, then the provisions of
Article 9 herein (in the event of a fire or other casualty) or Article 12 herein
(in the event of a condemnation or eminent domain proceeding), shall prevail in
determining Tenant's rights to abatement and termination and Tenant shall not
have a right to an abatement or a right to terminate this Lease under this
paragraph.

         (b)      In addition to Tenant's self-help remedies described in
subsection (a) above, if for any reason within Landlord's reasonable control
there is a failure to furnish the Building Services required to be furnished by
this Lease and such failure results in an imminent threat to persons, Tenant's
property or Tenant's business, Tenant may, after providing Landlord with such
notice and the first right to remedy such failure as is practical under the
circumstances, provide for its own account such Building Services to the extent
necessary to remove the threat to persons or property.

         (c)      Any reasonable sums expended by Tenant in exercising its
remedies described in Sections 5.08(a) or 5.08(b) above shall be reimbursed by
Landlord within thirty (30) days of Tenant's invoice therefor together with
invoices and paid receipts and other reasonable evidence of such costs.

         (d)      If any impairment or cessation of Building Services pursuant
to Section 5.08(a) or Section 5.08(b) adversely affects Tenant's use of part or
all of the Premises for more than one (1) business day, Rent shall thereafter
abate as to the portion of the Premises affected until such service is
reinstated.

         (e)      The remedies set forth in subsections (a)-(d) above shall be
Tenant's sole and exclusive remedies for interruption of Building Services
resulting from Landlord's negligent acts or omissions and failure to provide
essential services for reasons within the control of Landlord. If an impairment
or cessation of Building Services results from the failure of any utility
company or other third party service provider to furnish such services, or other
event beyond Landlord's reasonable control, Landlord shall have no liability to
Tenant except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease and, except as
provided below, Rent shall not abate, provided Landlord immediately notifies the
service provider of such impairment or cessation and thereafter employs its best
efforts to cause such services to be reinstated. If such impairment or cessation
of Building Services resulting from the failure of any utility company or other
third party service provider to furnish such services or other events beyond
Landlord's reasonable control adversely affects part or all of the Premises for
the normal conduct of Tenant's business for more than three (3) consecutive
business days, Rent shall thereafter abate as to the portion of the Premises
adversely affected until such Building Service is fully reinstated.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such interruption of Building Services
which results from the failure of any utility company or other third party
service provider to furnish such services or other events beyond Landlord's
reasonable control materially and adversely affects the Premises for the normal
conduct of Tenant's business for thirty (30) consecutive days from the
commencement of the Rent abatement period, Tenant may at any time after such
thirty (30) consecutive days, but during the Rent abatement period, terminate
this Lease by written notice to Landlord which

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

notice shall specify the effective date of termination which date shall not be
more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of Tenant's notice of
termination. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, should
the interruption of facilities, utilities or services be caused by either (i)
fire or other casualty or (ii) a condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, then
the provisions of Article 9 herein (in the event of a fire or other casualty),
or Article 12 herein (in the event of a condemnation or eminent domain
proceeding), shall prevail in determining Tenant's rights to abatement and
termination and Tenant shall not have a right to an abatement or a right to
terminate this Lease under this paragraph.

         Section 5.09 Personnel. Landlord shall employ and/or contract with
persons of sufficient number and experience to maintain the Building and Common
Building Facilities and to perform the services which Landlord is required to
perform under this Lease.

         Section 5.10 Insurance.

         (a)      Tenant shall maintain at its sole cost, at all times during
the terms of this Lease the insurance coverage set forth below.

                  (i)      Workers' Compensation Insurance as required by laws

                  (ii)     Employers' Liability Insurance protecting Tenant
                           against common law liability in the absence of
                           statutory liability, for employee bodily injury
                           arising out of the master-servant relationship with a
                           limit of not less than $1,000,000;

                  (iii)    Commercial General Liability Insurance with limits of
                           not less than $500,000 per occurrence and $1,000,000
                           in the aggregate,

                  (iv)     Automobile Liability Insurance including non-owned
                           and hired vehicle coverage with limits of liability
                           of not less than $500,000;

                  (v)      Excess Liability Insurance over Automobile Liability,
                           Commercial General Liability, and Employers'
                           Liability coverage afforded by the primary policies
                           described above with minimum limits of $4,000,000 in
                           excess of specified limits;

                  (vi)     All-Risk Property Insurance for the replacement value
                           of the leasehold improvements in the Premises,
                           including Tenant's initial tenant improvements as set
                           forth on Exhibit "B" and all other additions,
                           alterations and/or installations made by Tenant in
                           the Premises and for all contents and all personal
                           property of Tenant in the Premises.

         (b)      The Commercial General Liability Insurance and Excess
Liability Insurance required by the above shall cover the contractual liability
(to the extent available under such policies) assumed under the provisions set

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

         (c)      Prior to commencement of the Lease and upon the written
request of Landlord, a certificate evidencing the required coverage shall be
delivered to Landlord. If commercially available, the Workers' Compensation
policy shall be endorsed to provide waiver of subrogation rights in favor of
Landlord and all partners, agents and affiliates. Such insurance may be carried
under a blanket policy covering the Premises and other locations of Tenant.
Landlord and its designated property management firm shall be named as an
additional insured on the liability coverages described in Section 5.10 (ii)-(v)
for those liabilities expressly assumed within the Premises by Tenant under the
Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord's additional insured status shall
be limited to (i) property damage incurred within the Premises only and personal
injury or death occurring with the Premises only, and (ii) the limits of
insurance required to be carried under Section 5.10(ii)-(v).

         (d)      Tenant agrees to comply with all material terms of the
insurance contracts referenced in this section. Failure of Tenant to keep the
required insurance policies in full force and effect during the term of this
Lease and during any extensions, shall constitute a breach of this Lease. In
such event, Landlord will provide Tenant written notice of such failure to keep
required insurance policies. In the event Tenant has not cured such failure
within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such notice, then Landlord shall have
the right, in addition to any other rights, upon ten (10) days notice, to
provide such insurance for Tenant and to include such insurance costs in the
next installment of Annual Rental. Nothing contained in these provisions
relating to coverage and amounts set out herein shall operate as a limitation of
tenant's liability in tort or contract under the terms of this Lease.

         (e)      Tenant shall have the right to Self-Insure for the insurance
required in this Paragraph 5.10, subject to and in accordance with the following
terms and conditions:

                  (1)      (A)      "Self-insure" shall mean that Tenant is
                           itself acting as though it were the insurance company
                           providing the insurance required under the provisions
                           hereof and Tenant shall pay any amounts due in lieu
                           of insurance proceeds which would have been payable
                           if the insurance policies had been carried, which
                           amounts shall be treated as insurance proceeds for
                           all purposes under this lease. Notwithstanding the
                           foregoing with regard to the insurance required by
                           Section 5.10(a) of this Lease, Tenant shall have the
                           right to maintain such deductibles and/or self
                           insured retentions as are included from time to time
                           in Tenant's insurance policies covering Tenant's
                           businesses and such deductibles and/or self insured
                           retentions shall not be considered self-insurance for
                           the purpose of this subsection 5.10(e).

                           (B)      All amounts which Tenant pays or is required
                           to pay and all loss of damages resulting from risks
                           for which Tenant has elected to self-insure shall be
                           subject to the waiver of subrogation provisions of
                           Paragraph 9.02 hereof and shall not limit Tenant's
                           indemnification obligations set forth in this Lease.

                           (C)      Tenant's right to self-insure and to
                           continue to self-insure is conditioned upon and
                           subject to:

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

                                    (I)  Tenant now having and hereafter
                                    maintaining a tangible net worth of at least
                                    Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000.00).

                           (D)      In the event Tenant fails to fulfill the
                           requirements of (C) above, then Tenant shall
                           immediately lose the right to self-insure and shall
                           be required to provide the insurance specified in
                           this Paragraph 5.10, provided, however that Tenant's
                           self-insurance shall continue in full force and
                           effect until the insurance specified in Paragraph
                           5.10 is issued by a qualifying insurance company.

                           (E)      In the event that Tenant elects to
                           self-insure and an event or claim occurs for which a
                           defense and/or coverage would have been available
                           from the insurance company, then Tenant shall:

                                    (I)  undertake the defense of any such
                                    claim, including a defense of Landlord, at
                                    Tenant's sole cost and expense; and

                                    (II) use its own funds to pay any claim or
                                    replace any property or otherwise provide
                                    the funding which would have been available
                                    from insurance proceeds but for such
                                    election by Tenant to self-insure.

                  (2)      If Tenant elects to self-insure, it shall provide
                           Landlord with a letter to that effect, and Landlord
                           shall acknowledge, in writing, Tenant's election to
                           self-insure. In the event of a casualty loss or other
                           event for which Tenant is otherwise liable under this
                           Lease that would have been covered by the insurance
                           required to be maintained by Tenant hereunder, Tenant
                           shall make funds available in the same manner as an
                           insurance carrier would have made such funds
                           available to the extent required by the terms of this
                           Lease.

         (a)      Landlord shall as an Operating Expense maintain at all times
during the Term of this Lease the insurance coverage set forth below with
companies reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and with a Best rating of at least
A/XII.

                  (i)      Workers' Compensation Insurance as required by laws
                           and regulations applicable to and covering employees
                           of Landlord and the Building Management entity;

                  (ii)     Employers' Liability Insurance protecting Landlord
                           against common law liability in the absence of
                           statutory liability, for employee bodily injury
                           arising out of the master-servant relationship with a
                           limit of not less than $1,000,000;

                  (iii)    Commercial General Liability Insurance (with a
                           maximum of $25,000 deductible or retained loss limit)
                           including products and completed

                           operations with limits of not less than $500,000 per
                           occurrence and $1,000,000 in the aggregate,

                  (iv)     Automobile Liability Insurance (with a maximum of
                           $10,000 deductible or retained loss limit) including
                           non-owned and hired vehicle coverage with limits of
                           liability of not less than $500,000;

                  (v)      Excess Liability Insurance over Automobile Liability,
                           Commercial General Liability, and Employers'
                           Liability coverage afforded by the primary policies
                           described above with minimum limits of $8,000,000 in
                           excess of specified limits and such limit shall be
                           subject to increase to amounts as may be reasonably
                           determined by Landlord;

                  (vi)     All-Risk Property Insurance (with a maximum of
                           $50,000 deductible or retained loss limits) for at

                           improvements, additions, alterations and/or
                           installations of Tenant in the Premises and all
                           contents in leased areas.

         (b)      The Commercial General Liability Insurance and Excess
Liability Insurance required by the above shall cover the contractual liability
of Landlord (to the extent available under such policies) assumed under the
provisions set forth in this Lease.

         (c)      Tenant shall be named as an additional insured on the
liability coverages described in Section 5.11(a)(ii)-(v); provided, however,
Tenant's additional insured status shall not extend to property damage or
personal injury or death occurring within the Premises. Prior to commencement of
the Lease, a certificate evidencing the required coverage shall be delivered to
Tenant naming Tenant as additional insured as aforesaid. This certificate shall
provide that any change restricting or reducing coverage or the cancellation of
any policies under which certificates are issued shall not be valid as respects
Tenant's interest therein until Tenant has received thirty (30) days' written
notice of such change or cancellation. Further, such insurance policies shall
provide primary coverage to Tenant and shall not be concurrent or in excess over
other valid insurance which may be available to Tenant. If commercially
available, the Workers' Compensation policy shall be endorsed to provide waiver
of subrogation rights in favor of Tenant and all agents and affiliates and their
respective officers, directors and employees. Such insurance may be carried
under a blanket policy covering the Premises and other locations of Landlord,
provided that amount of insurance coverage required to be carried by Landlord in
this Lease is not reduced by payments under the blanket policy for other
locations.

         (d)      Landlord agrees to comply with all terms of the insurance
contracts referenced in this section. Failure of Landlord to keep the required
insurance policies in full force and effect during the Term of this Lease and
during any extensions, shall constitute a breach of this Lease and Tenant shall
have the right, in addition to any other rights, upon ten (10) days notice, to
cancel and terminate this Lease without further cost to Tenant. Nothing
contained in these provisions relating to coverage and amounts set out herein
shall operate as limitation of Landlord's liability in tort or contract under
the terms of this Lease.

                         ARTICLE SIX - TENANT'S PARKING

         Section 6.01 Tenant's Parking.

         (a)      At all times during the Term Landlord, at its expense, will
provide Tenant with free parking spaces in an amount equal to 256 spaces,
fifty-five (55) of which shall be reserved covered parking located in the
Building Parking Garage and specifically identified on Exhibit "J", and the
remaining 201 parking spaces shall be located on surface lots numbered 1 through
15 on Exhibit "K". Landlord shall clearly mark (using Tenant's name) each of the
55 spaces within the Building Parking Garage as reserved for Tenant. There shall
be no charge for such parking spaces. In the event the rentable square footage
of Tenant's Premises is increased or decreased, the parking for Tenant shall be
proportionally adjusted. Tenant shall have no claim on any additional parking
not expressly assigned to it in this paragraph. Both the Building Parking Garage
and at least 201 parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area shall be
available for use 24 hours a day. Landlord shall keep and maintain the
Additional Parking Area in a clean and first-class condition. In addition,
Landlord shall provide at least 50 visitor parking spaces for the use of all
tenants in the Building as depicted on Exhibit "L". Landlord shall not be
obligated to provide personnel to perform parking service but shall provide
access control to the Building Parking Garage, provided Landlord shall not be
liable to Tenant for losses due to the theft or burglary, or for injury to
persons or property done by unauthorized persons. Currently the parking
configuration at the Building and for the Additional Parking Area is on an open,
first come, first serve basis.

         (b)      If Tenant, its permitted assignees or subtenants and/or their
respective employees, licensees and guests at any time during the Term are not
able to use the Building Parking Garage and/or Additional Parking Area for the
parking spaces provided, Landlord shall take whatever steps are necessary to
provide Tenant with the required number of parking spaces as set forth in
Section 6.01(a). Except in the event of a casualty or condemnation as set forth
in paragraph (e) below, if at any time during the Term, (i) Landlord grants
reserved parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area to any tenant in the
Building, or (ii) Landlord does not provide Tenant with the required 201 parking
spaces in the Additional Parking Area, and if Landlord, within forty-eight (48)
hours following written notice from Tenant, does not provide Tenant with the 201
parking spaces as required by this Lease, then, instead of the first come, first
serve open parking system at the Building for Tenant, Landlord shall reserve for
Tenant's sole use, 201 parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area (excluding
the visitor parking areas as set forth on Exhibit K hereto) which are located
closest to the twenty-four (24) hour ingress and egress entrance to and from the
Building ("Reserved Spaces"). The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that
Landlord shall be deemed to have not provided Tenant with the required 201
parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area as set forth in romanette (ii) in
the preceding sentence, if, and only if, two (2) times in any calendar month
during the Term, Tenant notifies Landlord that there is not adequate parking for
Tenant's employees in the Additional Parking Area, Landlord's property manager
or designee confirms that there is not adequate parking for Tenant's employees
in the Additional Parking Area, and Landlord does not provide such required
parking within the forty-eight (48) hour cure period as set forth in the
preceding sentence.

         (c)      The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that Landlord shall
be deemed to have not provided Tenant with the required 55 spaces in the
Building Parking Garage if and only if

                                      -18-
<PAGE>

two times in any calendar month during the Term Tenant provides written
notification to Landlord that the required 55 spaces are not available for use
by Tenant's employees in the Building Parking Garage, Landlord's property
manager or designee confirms that the required 55 spaces are not available for
use by Tenant`s employees in the Building Parking Garage, and Landlord does not
provide such required parking spaces within 48 hours of delivery of Tenant's
written notification. If the Landlord is deemed to have not provided Tenant and
its employees with the required 55 parking spaces in the Building Parking Garage
as aforesaid, then the Rent shall abate for the Premises until Tenant is
provided the use of such 55 parking spaces in the Building Parking Garage;
provided further, if Landlord fails to provide the required 55 spaces in the
Building Parking Garage for the use of Tenant and its employees for 30
consecutive days, then Tenant may, at any time after such 30 consecutive days,
but during the rent abatement period, terminate this Lease by written notice to
Landlord, which notice shall specify the effective date of termination, and
which date shall not be more than 180 days after the date of Tenant's notice of
termination.

         (d)      After Tenant is granted the Reserved Spaces as provided in the
previous paragraph, and Landlord fails to provide to Tenant for Tenant's use 201
parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area in the Reserved Spaces following
48 hours prior written notice from Tenant, then such failure to provide to
Tenant for Tenant's use 201 parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area in the
Reserved Spaces shall result in Rent abating for the Premises until Tenant is
provided the use of such 201 parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area in
the Reserved Spaces. Additionally, if Landlord fails to provide to Tenant for
Tenant's use 201 parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area in the Reserved
Spaces following 48 hours prior written notice from Tenant, and such failure to
provide to Tenant for Tenant's use 201 parking spaces in the Additional Parking
Area in the Reserved Spaces continues for thirty (30) consecutive days, then
Tenant may at any time after such thirty (30) consecutive days, but during the
Rent abatement period, terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord which
notice shall specify the effective date of termination which date shall not be
more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of Tenant's notice of
termination.

         (e)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a casualty or condemnation
adversely affects the Building Parking Garage and/or Additional Parking Area,
then Landlord can relocate (i) the Building Parking Garage spaces to visitor
parking spaces described in Exhibit L hereto, or other visitor parking spaces
designated by Landlord from time to time (provided that such visitor lot(s)
shall be moved to either Lot 2 and/or Lot 7, at Landlord's reasonable
discretion), for up to one hundred eighty (180) days, and (ii) the surface
parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area within a one (1) mile radius of
Building for up to ninety (90) days. If Tenant's original parking spaces are not
restored within (i) one hundred eighty (180) days for those Tenant parking
spaces located within the Building Parking Garage, or (ii) ninety (90) days for
those Tenant parking spaces located within the Additional Parking Area, then
Tenant shall have right to terminate this Lease, prior to the restoration of
such original parking spaces, by providing written notice to Landlord, which
notice shall specify the effective date of termination which date shall not be
more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of Tenant's notice of
termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, in the
event Tenant is not able to use the Additional Parking Area for the parking
spaces provided herein due to a casualty or condemnation, then Landlord, at its
sole cost and expense, shall use its best efforts to immediately provide
alternative parking for Tenant within a one (1) mile radius of the Building

                                      -19-
<PAGE>

(with a reasonable number of parking shuttles to transport Tenant's employees to
and from such parking areas and the Building) until Tenant is once again able to
use the Additional Parking Area for the parking spaces provided herein.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, if Landlord
immediately provides such alternative parking for Tenant (i) in the visitor
parking area described in Exhibit L hereto, or other visitor parking spaces as
described above, for the parking spaces within the Building Parking Garage, and
(ii) within a one (1) mile radius of the Building (with a reasonable number of
parking shuttles, at Landlord's cost and expense, to transport Tenant's
employees to and from such parking areas and the Building) for the parking
spaces within the Additional Parking Area, then Landlord shall be deemed to have
provided Tenant with the required parking under this Lease; provided, however,
Tenant shall still have the right to terminate this Lease as provided above in
this paragraph if Tenant's original fifty-five (55) parking spaces are not
restored within (i) one hundred eighty (180) days for Tenant's parking spaces
located within Building Parking Garage, or (ii) ninety (90) days for Tenant's
two hundred and one (201) parking spaces located within the Additional Parking
Area. In the event Tenant is not able to use the Building Parking Garage and/or
Additional Parking Area for the parking spaces provided in this Lease due to a
casualty or condemnation, and if Landlord is unable to immediately provide (i)
alternative parking in the visitor parking area described in Exhibit L hereto,
or other visitor parking spaces as described above, for the Tenant parking
spaces located within the Building Parking Garage, and/or (ii) alternative
parking within a one (1) mile radius of the Building for the Tenant parking
spaces located within the Additional Parking Area, then such failure to
immediately provide parking in the Building Parking Garage and/or Additional
Parking Area, as applicable, shall result in Rent abating for the Premises until
Tenant is provided the use of such parking spaces in the Additional Parking Area
and the Building Parking Garage, and if such failure continues for thirty (30)
consecutive days, then Tenant may at any time after such thirty (30) consecutive
days, but during the Rent abatement period, terminate this Lease by written
notice to Landlord which notice shall specify the effective date of termination
which date shall not be more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date
of Tenant's notice of termination.

         (f)      Landlord covenants to Tenant that it will not separately
(without also selling the Building and Building Parking Garage and other
Additional Parking Area) (i) sell or convey any of the Additional Parking Area
set forth on Exhibit K hereto to any other party, or (ii) enter into a ground
lease for any of the Additional Parking Area set forth on Exhibit K hereto with
any other party; provided, however, (i) Landlord may sell or convey, or enter
into a ground lease for, any of the Additional Parking Area, if Landlord
provides to Tenant substitute parking at no greater distance than the Additional
Parking Area lot that is being sold or leased, and (ii) subject to Section
6.01(a) Landlord may, in its sole and absolute discretion, enter into a ground
lease for lots 1, 5 and 12 in the Additional Parking Area that is terminable by
Landlord, in its sole discretion, upon thirty (30) days notice.

         (g)      Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 6.01,
Landlord shall not be financially liable for the unauthorized use of Tenant's
parking, provided that it has immediately taken reasonable measures to insure
the availability of such parking. Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to ensure
that its employees restrict their use of parking to Tenant's parking spaces. In
the event Landlord fails within forty-eight (48) hours of Tenant's written
notice to remove an unauthorized vehicle from the parking area's provided for
tenants of the Building or from Tenant's contiguous covered parking spaces,
Tenant at its risk may cause such vehicle to be

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

towed by a licensed car towing company at the expense of Landlord. Landlord
shall keep and maintain the Additional Parking Area in a safe condition.

         (h)      Landlord hereby agrees to reserve seven (7) parking spaces in
the visitor parking area described in Exhibit L hereto (five (5) spaces in the
front row and two (2) spaces in the second row) for Tenant's sole use. Landlord
shall have the right during the Lease Term if the visitor parking area described
in Exhibit L hereto is routinely full to reallocate up to fifteen (15) parking
spaces in the Additional Parking Area to be used for visitor parking for the
Building.;

determine whether such construction (as set forth in the plans and construction
documents) will disturb or expose any encapsulated, sealed or enclosed hazardous

prescribed by the then current levels or contents as set from time to time by
EPA or OSHA or as identified under 29-CFR-1910 or 29-CFR-1925 or other
applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.

         Except for any breach or failure by Tenant to comply with its
obligations as set forth in Sections 7.02(a), 7.02(b), 7.02(c) and 7.02(d) of
this Lease, Landlord shall be responsible and liable for the existence of and

compliance with all applicable governmental standards, laws, rules and
regulations and repair any damage to the Premises or any part of the Building or
The Boulder Towers Complex within such period as may be reasonable under the
circumstances after written notice by Landlord, provided that such work shall

continuously carried to completion by Tenant or Tenant's designated contractors.

         Tenant shall notify Landlord of its method, time and procedure for any
clean-up or removal of toxic or hazardous materials under this provision; and
Landlord shall have the right to require reasonable changes in such method, time
or procedure or to require the same to be done after normal business hours or
when the Building or The Boulder Towers Complex is otherwise closed (i.e.,
weekends and holidays).

         (e)      If Landlord, its agents, contractors, property manager or
their respective employees shall ever violate the provisions of Paragraph (c)
above (that apply to Landlord regarding toxic or hazardous materials), or if
Landlord's acts, negligence, breach of this provision or business operations
materially expand the scope of or materially worsen any contamination from toxic
or hazardous materials installed or introduced by Landlord (including the Tenant
Improvements described in Exhibit "B") or existing in the Building, then
Landlord shall clean up, remove and dispose of the material causing the
violation, in compliance with all applicable governmental standards, laws, rules
and regulations and repair any damage to the Premises or any part of the
Building or The Boulder Towers Complex within such period as may be reasonable
under the circumstances after written notice by Tenant, provided that such work
shall commence not later than fifteen (15) days from such notice and be
diligently and continuously carried to completion by Landlord or Landlord's
designated contractors.

         Landlord shall notify Tenant of its method, time and procedure for any
clean-up or removal of toxic or hazardous materials under this provision; and
Tenant shall have the right to require reasonable changes in such method, time
or procedure or to require the same to be done after normal business hours or
when the Building or The Boulder Towers Complex is otherwise closed (i.e.,
weekends and holidays). Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 7.02, in
the

                                      -23-
<PAGE>

event that Landlord's clean-up or removal pursuant to this subsection (e)
("Clean Up or Removal") adversely affects all or any portion of the Premises for
more than one (1) business day, the Rent shall abate as to the portion of the
Premises so affected until the affected portion of the Premises can be used
again for normal business purposes. If such Clean Up or Removal materially and
adversely affects Tenant's use of the Premises for thirty (30) consecutive days,
then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease after written notice to
Landlord (but in all events prior to the substantial completion of such Clean Up
or Removal), which notice shall specify the effective date of termination and
which date shall not be more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date
of Tenant's notice of termination.

         Section 7.03 Access. Subject to events beyond Landlord's reasonable
control and emergencies which may arise, Tenant, its permitted subtenants and
their employees, licensees and guests, shall have access to the Premises at all
times, 24 hours per day, every day of the year, except if the Building is closed
due to an emergency or the Building is closed by governmental order, or the
Building is closed by Landlord for security or safety concerns. Except in the
event a lack of access is caused by a casualty or condemnation, a lack of
access as required hereunder shall be deemed an interruption of Building
Services as set forth in Section 5.08 hereof, which shall entitle Tenant to all
abatement and termination remedies specified in Section 5.08. Notwithstanding
anything in this paragraph to the contrary, a lack of access as required
hereunder due to an emergency beyond Landlord's reasonable control (but only for
and up to a maximum of three (3) business days) shall not be deemed an
interruption of Building Services as set forth in Section 5.08 hereof, and shall
not entitle Tenant to any abatement and/or termination remedies specified in
Section 5.08; provided, however that a lack of access due to an emergency in
excess of three (3) business days shall be deemed an interruption of Building
Services under Section 5.08 hereof. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph
to the contrary, should the Tenant's lack of access to the Premises be caused by
either (i) fire or other casualty or (ii) condemnation or eminent domain
proceeding, then the provisions of Article 9 herein (in the event of a fire or
other casualty), or Article 12 herein (in the event of a condemnation or eminent
domain proceeding, shall prevail in determining Tenant's rights to abatement and
termination and Tenant shall not have a right to an abatement of Rent or a right
to terminate this Lease under this paragraph.

         Section 7.04 Storage Space. Tenant shall have the right to lease the
Storage Space on the basement level of the Building at a rate during the Initial
Term as set forth in Exhibit "C" hereto and during the Renewal Term at an amount
equal to the Fair Market Value Rate for onsite storage which shall not in any

Tenant of the availability of any additional existing storage space in the
basement and the rental rate for such additional space shall be the same as the
rental rate for the Storage Space. The storage space leased to Tenant shall be
subject to reasonable rules and regulations by Landlord which shall not modify
or amend or be inconsistent with the provisions of this Lease, nor shall such
rules or regulations require the payment or expenditure of additional monies by
Tenant, and shall be provided by Landlord on an "AS IS" basis with limited
services appropriate for storage space.

         Section 7.05 Building Directory. Landlord, at its expense, shall
maintain a Building directory in the lobby of the Building for all tenants of
the Building. Landlord shall also provide floor signage in the elevator lobby of

shall pay Landlord's reasonable cost for the same. Landlord reserves the right
to modify or replace the directory at any time in the future in its sole
discretion.

         Section 7.06 Tenant Interior Signage. At Tenant's sole cost of
installation and maintenance, Tenant shall have the right to install, affix or
display its name and logo on any door, window or wall of the Premises without
obtaining the consent of Landlord, provided that such name or logo is not

Tenant's sole cost of installation and maintenance, have the right to install,
affix or display its name or logo in the common areas on the floors of the
Premises subject to the approval of Landlord, which approval will not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.

                     ARTICLE EIGHT - REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

         Section 8.02 Tenant's obligations.

         (a)      Subject to the terms and provisions of Section 17.02 of this
Lease, Tenant shall maintain the Premises (except the Common Building Facilities

                        ARTICLE NINE - FIRE AND CASUALTY

         Section 9.01 Damage or Destruction.

         (a)      If the Building or any part thereof should be destroyed or
damaged by fire or other casualty during the Term of this Lease, then (unless
this Lease is terminated by Landlord or Tenant as hereinafter provided) Landlord
shall within sixty (60) days of the date of the casualty, proceed to diligently
and continuously reconstruct, restore and repair the Building and the base
building systems and Building standard improvements contained in the Premises,
as the case may be, to a condition substantially equivalent to their former
condition. If Landlord fails to commence or diligently and continuously proceed
with such action within this period of time or if the restoration is not
substantially completed within one-hundred and eighty (180) days of the
casualty, then Tenant, as its sole and exclusive remedy for such failure (in
addition to Section 9.01(c)), may forthwith terminate this Lease (effective no
later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of Tenant's notice)
prior to the substantial completion of such restoration.

         (b)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.01 (a),
Landlord's obligation to restore shall be limited to the insurance proceeds it
receives; provided however, such limitation shall not impair or limit Tenant's
right to terminate the Lease for Landlord's failure to timely commence or to
complete restoration as provided in Section 9.01 (a).

                                      -26-
<PAGE>

         (c)      Commencing with the date of such damage, the Rent provided for
herein shall abate pro rata to the extent that, and for so long as, any portion
of the Premises is adversely affected for the use described in Section 7.01(a)
or for so long as damage to Common Building Facilities adversely affects the
performance of Tenant's business; provided however that upon substantial
completion by Landlord of its restoration work, Rent shall commence on the
expiration of a reasonable time thereafter required for Tenant to substantially
complete its restoration work under Section 9.01 (e).

         (d)      It is agreed that if the Building is totally destroyed by any
cause or is so substantially destroyed such that reconstruction would require
more than one hundred eighty (180) days, as reasonably estimated by Landlord's
architect or contractor, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this
Lease by giving the other party written notice of such election within thirty
(30) days after the giving of the notice from Landlord hereinafter provided.
Such termination shall be effective as of the date of such election. In the
event of any substantial casualty, Landlord shall within thirty (30) days
thereafter, give Tenant written notice of the estimated time required to repair
the same as reasonably estimated by Landlord's contractor or architect.

         (e)      For any casualty to the Premises only, or any casualty to the
Building and Premises in which Landlord is obligated to restore the Building or
otherwise elects to restore the Building, Tenant, subject to Sections 9.01(a),
(c) and (d) above, shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to
completion the restoration of all leasehold improvements, alterations,
installations, additions and trade fixtures which are damaged or destroyed to a
completion substantially equivalent to their condition on the date of the
casualty; provided, however, that in the event such casualty referred to in this
Section 9.01(e) shall occur in the last two Lease Years, then Tenant shall have
the right to terminate this Lease within thirty (30) days following such
casualty upon written notice to Landlord, which notice shall specify the
effective date of termination and which date will not be more than one hundred
eighty (180) days after the date of Tenant's notice of termination.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph 9.01,
Landlord and Tenant agree to the following:

         (1)      In the event that a casualty materially and adversely affects
Tenant's use of the Data Center Space for 150 consecutive days ("150 Day
Period"), then Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right
prior to the expiration of the 150 Day Period to relocate the Data Center Space
to other space in the Building and to construct new Data Center Space. In such
event, Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall construct such new Data
Center Space within the 150 Day Period so that such space shall be in
substantially the same condition as existed in the original Data Center Space
prior to the casualty. Such new Data Center Space shall include the Liebert
Units, Diesel Motor and electronic switching equipment located in the Data
Center Space (the "Switching Equipment"), and Landlord shall insure that the new
Data Center Space shall be located within 300 feet of Tenant's satellite dishes,
or Landlord shall move such satellite dishes to a location mutually acceptable
to Landlord and Tenant which is within 300 feet of the new Data Center Space.
During the construction of the new Data Center Space, Rent for the Data Center
Space shall abate. Upon substantial completion of construction of such new Data
Center Space within the 150 Day Period and the commencement of operations in the

                                      -27-
<PAGE>

Data Center Space, (i) the term "Data Center Space" as defined in Section
1.01(b) of this Lease shall be amended to be the new Data Center Space, and any
necessary adjustments to Annual Rental for the Data Center Space shall be made
in accordance with Exhibit "C" to this Lease; and (ii) Tenant shall no longer
have the right to an abatement of Rent or the right to terminate this Lease
under this Section 9.01 because of the casualty affecting the Data Center Space.

         (2)      In the event that a casualty materially and adversely affects
Tenant's use of the Storage Space for 120 consecutive days (120 Day Period),
then Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right prior to the
expiration of the 120 Day Period to relocate the Storage Space to other space in
the Building. In such event, Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall
construct such new Storage Space within the 120 Day Period so that such space
shall be in substantially the same condition as existed in the original Storage
Space prior to the casualty. During the construction of the new Storage Space,
Rent for the Storage Space shall abate. Upon substantial completion of
construction of such new Storage Space within the 120 Day Period, (i) the term
"Storage Space" as defined in Section 1.01(b) of this Lease shall be amended to
be the new Storage Space, and any necessary adjustments to Annual Rental for the
Storage Space shall be made in accordance with Exhibit "C" to this Lease; and
(ii) Tenant shall no longer have the right to an abatement of Rent or the right
to terminate this Lease under this Section 9.01 because of the casualty
affecting the Storage Space.

         (3)      In the event Landlord fails to complete the new Data Center
Space or Storage Space within the 150 Day Period or 120 Day Period respectively,
then Tenant may terminate this Lease at any time prior to the Substantial
Completion of the Data Center Space (either the old or new Data Center Space) or
the Storage Space (either the old or new Storage Space), such termination date
to be no more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of Tenant's
termination notice to Landlord.

         Section 9.02 Waiver of Subrogation Rights. Notwithstanding anything in
this Lease to the contrary, Landlord, Tenant, and all parties claiming under
them, each mutually waive, release and discharge each other from responsibility
for any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or cause of action against the
other for any loss or damage that may occur to the Premises, the Building, the
Complex, the Common Building Facilities, or any personal property of Landlord or
Tenant, arising from any cause that would be insured against under the terms of
any insurance required to be carried hereunder. The foregoing waiver, release
and discharge shall apply regardless of the cause or origin of such claim,
including, but not limited to, the negligence of a party, or such party's
agents, officers, employees or contractors. Any fire, extended coverage or
property insurance policy required to be maintained by Tenant in this Lease with
respect to the Premises, or Landlord with respect to the Building, the Complex,
the Common Building Facilities, shall contain, in the case of Tenant's policies,
a waiver of subrogation provision or endorsement in favor of Landlord (but only
for liabilities expressly assumed by Tenant in this Lease), and in the case of
Landlord's policies, a waiver of subrogation provision or endorsement in favor
of Tenant, or, in the event that such insurers cannot or shall not include or
attach such waiver of subrogation provision or endorsement, Tenant and Landlord
shall obtain the approval and consent of their respective insurers, in writing,
to the terms of this Lease. Tenant agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and hold
harmless each and all of the Landlord Indemnitees (defined below) from and
against any claim, suit or cause of action asserted or brought by Tenant's
insurers for, on behalf of, or in the name of Tenant, including, but not limited
to, claims for

contribution, indemnity or subrogation, brought in contravention of this
paragraph. Landlord agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless each
and all of the Tenant Indemnitees (defined below) from and against any claim,
suit or cause of action asserted or brought by Landlord's insurers for, on
behalf of, or in the name of Landlord, including, but not limited to, claims for
contribution, indemnity or subrogation, brought in contravention of this
paragraph. The mutual releases, discharges and waivers contained in this
provision shall apply EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE TO WHICH THIS PROVISION APPLIES
IS CAUSED SOLELY OR IN PART BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF LANDLORD INDEMNITEES OR TENANT
INDEMNITEES.

thereof, to the extent arising from Tenant's negligence, from the undertaking of
any alterations, work or repairs to the Premises or the Complex (if any) by
Tenant or from any willful or negligent act of Tenant, its agents, contractors,
servants, employees, customers or invitees, in or about the Premises, but only
to the extent of Landlord's liability, if any, in excess of amounts, if any,
paid to Landlord under insurance covering such claims or liabilities. In case of
any action or proceeding brought against the Landlord's Indemnitees by reason of
any such claim, upon notice from Landlord, Tenant covenants to defend such
action or proceeding by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

         Section 10.02 Indemnity by Landlord. To the extent permitted by law,
Landlord agrees to indemnify, protect defend and hold the Tenant, its affiliates
and their respective agents, employees, officers and directors ("Tenant's
Indemnitees") harmless against any and all actions, claims, demands, costs and

negligent act of Landlord, its agents, contractors, servants, employees,
customers or invitees, in or about the Premises and the Complex, but only to the

this Section shall control over any conflicting provision of this Lease.

                    ARTICLE ELEVEN - ALTERATIONS AND FIXTURES

         Section 11.01 Alterations by Tenant and Landlord.

         (a)      Tenant may make such alterations in or additions to the
Premises as it shall from time to time elect to make without obtaining the
consent of Landlord; provided, however, that any material alteration in or
addition to the Premises (it being expressly agreed that decorations,
redecorating, substitutions and nonstructural changes which are not visible from
the exterior of the Building and do not adversely affect the base building HVAC
or mechanical, electrical or plumbing systems or penetrate above the ceiling
grid shall not be deemed material the "Permitted Alterations") shall be subject
to the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except as to changes visible from the
exterior of the Building or changes which impair or cause load design problems
for the structural, HVAC, mechanical, electrical or plumbing systems of the
Building, as to which Landlord may withhold consent in its sole discretion.
Subject to the approval of Landlord, which will not be unreasonably withheld,
Tenant may use contractors of its own selection and there shall be no overhead
or supervision fees to Landlord for any such work. Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for any reasonable out-of-pocket fees or expenses paid to third-party
architects, engineers, consultants and/or other professionals in evaluating any
alteration requested by Tenant pursuant to this Section 11.01. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Tenant shall not make any material alterations or changes to the
Liebert Units, Diesel Motor and Switching Equipment and the Building systems,
including the fire suppression system, located within the Data Center Space.

         (b)      In addition to the work to be performed by Landlord pursuant
to Exhibit "B", any other alterations or additions made by Tenant in the
Premises shall be constructed and completed in a good and workmanlike manner at
Tenant's expense by contractors approved by Landlord, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Except for Permitted Alterations, Tenant shall
furnish to Landlord in advance the plans and specifications for any alterations
and/or additions to the Premises and any other information which Landlord may
reasonably request pertaining to such alterations or additions. Landlord shall
determine (within the time period specified in Section 7.02(a)) whether or not
such proposed alterations or additions will disturb the areas in the Building
which are identified as possibly containing enclosed hazardous materials as
referred to in Section 7.02. If Landlord reasonably determines that such plans
and/or construction will disturb any such hazardous materials, then Tenant shall
have the right to modify its plans and/or alterations and/or additions to the
Premises so as to not disturb such hazardous materials. If Tenant elects not to
modify such plans and/or documents or if such modifications will require
additional cost or delay (which is not acceptable to Tenant) in construction of
Tenant's alterations or additions, then Tenant shall not perform alterations or
additions to the Premises. Tenant shall obtain all necessary governmental
permits, licenses and approvals and shall comply with all Applicable Laws and
the reasonable requirements of Landlord as to work schedule, noise abatement,
safety, security, elevator access, trash removal and other activities to
minimize disruption and annoyance to other tenants in the Building.

         (c)      Tenant shall pay all taxes and assessments levied with respect
to Tenant's above standard leasehold improvements, alterations, additions,
installations, trade fixtures and personal property in the Premises.

                                      -30-
<PAGE>

         (d)      Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and
against any and all losses, damages, costs and expenses (includes costs of suit
and attorneys' fees), liabilities, or causes of action arising out of or
relating to mechanics, materialmen's or other liens or claims (and all costs or
expenses associated therewith) asserted, filed or arising out of any
alterations, additions, installations, or improvements made by Tenant to the
Premises (not including the work to be performed by Landlord on behalf of Tenant
pursuant to Exhibit "B" hereto). All contracts with materialmen, contractors,
artisans, mechanics, laborers and other parties hereafter contracting with
Tenant for the furnishing of any labor, services, materials, supplies or
equipment with respect to any portion of the Premises must provide that they
look solely to Tenant for payment for same.

         Section 11.02 Tenant's Property.

         (a)      Tenant, at its expense, may, at any time and from time to
time, install in and remove from the Premises its trade fixtures, logos, trade
names, equipment, movable partitions, walls and wall systems (excluding the
Virginia Panel Wall System which shall remain the property of Landlord),
furniture and furnishings and all of Tenant's other personal property, provided
such installation or removal is accomplished without material damage to the
Premises or the Building and Tenant promptly repairs any damage thereto.

         (b)      Upon the expiration of this Lease, Tenant shall remove all of
Tenant's personal property and trade fixtures and Tenant shall promptly repair
any damage to the Premises or the Building. If Tenant fails to remove any
personal property of Tenant that Tenant may remove upon the termination of this
Lease, any such property not so removed shall, at Landlord's election, become
the property of Landlord or be removed by Landlord at Tenant's expense.
Notwithstanding the foregoing Tenant shall have no obligation to remove walls,
wall systems, ceilings or floor coverings in the Premises. Notwithstanding
anything in the Lease to the contrary, if requested by Landlord in writing,
Tenant, shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for removing the
internal stairwell between the thirteenth (13th) and fourteenth (14th) floors
upon the completion or earlier termination of this Lease and Tenant shall
promptly restore such floor area to substantially the same condition that
existed prior to installation of such stairwell.

                          ARTICLE TWELVE - CONDEMNATION

         Section 12.01 Total Taking. If all of the Building or the Premises
shall be taken by condemnation or in any other manner for any public or
quasi-public use or purpose (other than for temporary use or occupancy), the
Term of this Lease shall terminate as of the date of vesting of title (the "Date
of the Taking"), and, subject to a proration and apportionment of Annual Rental
and proration, apportionment and reconciliation of Additional Rental and other
sums due hereunder as of the Date of the Taking, no further Rent shall be due
hereunder.

         Section 12.02 Partial Taking. If a part of the Premises shall be so
taken, then Landlord shall give Tenant prompt written notice thereof and the
part so taken shall no longer constitute part of the Premises, but this Lease
shall continue in force and effect as to the part not so taken; provided,
however, that Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease (a) if a partial taking
of the Premises occurs and Landlord is not able to provide alternate premises in
the Building

                                      -31-
<PAGE>

reasonably acceptable to Tenant for the normal conduct of Tenant's business for
the portion of the Premises taken or if, in the good faith, reasonable judgment
of Tenant, the remaining portion of the Premises cannot be economically and
practicably used by Tenant for the conduct of its business or (b) if a partial
taking has a material and adverse effect upon (i) the normal conduct by Tenant
of its business in the Premises, or (ii) the parking for Tenant and its visitors
and Landlord does not relocate such parking pursuant to Section 6.01(d) of this
Lease. Tenant shall give notice of any election to terminate to Landlord not
later than sixty (60) days after notice of such taking is given by Landlord to
Tenant. Upon the date specified in Tenant's notice (which shall be a date as
soon thereafter as is practical for Tenant to relocate from the Building, but in
no event more than one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter), the Term of this
Lease shall terminate and, subject to a proration and apportionment of Annual
Rental and proration, apportionment and reconciliation of Additional Rental and
other sums due hereunder as of the date of the termination, no further rent
shall be due hereunder. Upon a partial taking and the Term of this Lease
continuing in force as to any part of the Premises, the Annual Rental or any
Additional Rental shall be reduced proportionately based upon the part or parts
of the Premises and/or other parts of the Building so taken. If a part of the
Building is taken, and either (i) Landlord's architect or contractor reasonably
estimates that reconstruction would require more than one hundred eighty (180)
days; (ii) in Landlord's good faith, reasonable judgment the remaining portion
of the Building cannot be restored to a functional whole or cannot be restored
so as to be efficient and economically viable to own, operate and maintain as a
commercial office building or (iii) the cost of restoration will require more
than the condemnation proceeds paid to Landlord, then Landlord may elect to
terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of such election to Tenant not
later than sixty (60) days following the Date of the Taking, and this Lease
shall terminate as of a date mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, but in
no event more than one hundred eighty (180) days following such notice, subject
to a proration and apportionment of Annual Rental and proration, apportionment
and reconciliation of Additional Rental and other sums due hereunder.

         Section 12.03 Claims of Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall be entitled
to receive the entire award in any proceeding with respect to any taking (other
than for temporary use and occupancy) provided for in this Article and Tenant
shall receive no part of such award, except as hereinafter expressly provided.
Tenant shall have the right to make a separate claim with the condemning
authority for (a) any moving expenses incurred by Tenant as a result of such
condemnation; (b) any costs incurred and paid by Tenant in connection with the
layout work, tenant's work or any alteration or improvement made by and paid for
by Tenant to the Premises including the work performed by Landlord on behalf of
Tenant pursuant to Exhibit "B"; (c) the value of any of Tenant's property taken;
and (d) any other separate claim which Tenant may hereafter be permitted to
make. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant's separate claim shall not be
reduced or adversely affected by the amount of Landlord's award. If Tenant shall
not be permitted to make a separate claim in such proceeding, Landlord will at
Tenant's request, prosecute all claims in such proceeding on behalf of both
Landlord and Tenant in which event Tenant may, if it so elects and at its
expense, join with Landlord in such proceeding, retain co-counsel, attend
hearings, present arguments and generally participate in the conduct of the
proceeding; provided, however, that if Landlord incurs any additional expense
because of Tenant's exercising its rights under this sentence, Tenant will bear
such additional expense.

         Section 12.04 Distribution of the Award. The aggregate amount of all
awards received in any proceeding relating to any taking (other than awards to
Tenant pursuant to Section 12.03 or for temporary use or occupancy) is
hereinafter called the "Award." The Award shall be distributed to the parties
based on the apportionment of the Award in such proceeding.

         Section 12.05 Temporary Taking of Premises. If all or any part of the
Premises shall be temporarily taken by condemnation or otherwise for any public
or quasi-public use or purpose (unless Tenant shall have elected to terminate
the Term of this Lease in accordance with the option provided in the last
sentence of this Section), this Lease shall nevertheless remain in full force
and effect. Tenant shall continue to be responsible for all of its obligations
hereunder insofar as such obligations are not affected by such taking; provided,
however, that Tenant shall not be liable for the payment of Rent or other sums
for the part of the Premises so temporarily taken. The Award claims of Landlord
and Tenant shall be handled as provided in Section 12.03. In the event of a
temporary taking which meets the requirement of subsection (a) or (b) of Section
12.02 for a period in excess of seventy-five (75) consecutive days, Tenant may
terminate the Term of this Lease upon notice to Landlord given within thirty
(30) days after such taking or, in the case of an indefinite temporary taking
under subsection (a) of Section 12.02, within thirty (30) days after such
seventy-five (75) day period has expired.

         Section 12.06 Landlord's Obligation to Restore.

         (a)      In the event of a taking which taking does not result in the
termination of this Lease, Landlord shall, at its expense to the extent of the
amount of the Award or Awards to Landlord (subject to Landlord's right of
termination of Section 12.02), proceed with due diligence to repair, alter
and/or restore the remaining part of the Building and the base building systems
and Building standard improvements within the Premises substantially to their
former condition to the extent feasible to constitute a complete and tenantable
Building and Premises (assuming Tenant performs its restoration pursuant to
Section 12.06(b)). Upon the expiration of any temporary taking which did not
result in a termination of this Lease, Landlord, with due diligence, shall
restore the base building systems and Building standard improvements within the
Premises to their former condition as aforesaid.

         (b)      In the event of a taking which does not result in the
termination of this Lease and to the extent that any Award or Awards to Tenant
shall be sufficient for the purpose, Tenant shall restore, with due diligence,
Tenant's alterations, improvements, installations, additions and trade fixtures
in the remaining portion of the Premises. Upon the expiration of or temporary
taking of the Premises which did not result in a termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall restore, with due diligence, Tenant's above Building standard
alterations, additions, installations and trade fixtures as aforesaid. Tenant
shall not be obligated to commence its restoration until Landlord has
substantially completed its restoration obligation.

         (c)      During any period of restoration of the Building and the base
building systems or Building standard improvements or Tenant's alterations,
improvements, installations, additions and trade fixtures within the Premises
pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Rent provided for herein shall abate pro
rata to the extent that, and for so long as Tenant's use or occupancy of any
portion of the Premises is adversely affected.

                    ARTICLE THIRTEEN - REMEDIES AND DEFAULTS

         Section 13.01 Default by Tenant.

         (a)      Any of the following shall be an "Event of Default" by Tenant
under this Lease:

                  (i)      Tenant fails or refuses to pay any installment of
                           Annual Rental or Additional Rental and such failure
                           or refusal continues for more than ten (10) days
                           following delivery of written notice to Tenant;
                           provided, however, following the fourth (4th) notice
                           of nonpayment of Annual Rental and/or Additional
                           Rental given by Landlord in any lease year, Landlord
                           shall not be required to give any written notice for
                           any subsequent failure of Tenant to timely pay any
                           installment of Annual Rental or Additional Rental
                           occurring during such calendar year; or

                  (ii)     Tenant fails or refuses to perform any of its other
                           covenants under this Lease, and such failure or
                           refusal continues beyond a reasonable time to cure
                           such nonperformance, not to exceed thirty (30) days
                           after the receipt by Tenant of written notice from
                           Landlord unless additional time, up to a maximum of
                           ninety (90) days in the aggregate is required to cure
                           the default which despite diligent and continuous
                           effort, cannot by its very nature be cured within
                           thirty (30) days, provided cure is commenced as soon
                           as commercially reasonable and is diligently
                           prosecuted to completion.

         (b)      Following an Event of Default and which is not cured within
the cure periods set out above, Landlord shall have the following remedies in
addition to those other remedies at law or in equity which are not inconsistent
therewith:

                  (i)      Landlord may terminate this Lease and forthwith
                           repossess the Premises and be entitled to recover
                           forthwith as damages a sum of money equal to the
                           total of (a) the cost of recovering the Premises, (b)
                           the unpaid rent earned through the date of
                           termination, plus interest thereon at the Default
                           Rate from the due date, and (c) any other sum of
                           money and damages owed by Tenant to Landlord under
                           this Lease at the time of termination.

                  (ii)     Landlord may terminate Tenant's right of possession
                           (but not the Lease) and may repossess the leased
                           premises by self-help, forcible entry or detainer
                           suit or otherwise, without demand or notice of any
                           kind to Tenant and without terminating this Lease, in
                           which event Landlord may relet the same for the
                           account of Tenant, such right to relet being on the
                           following terms and conditions: (a) Landlord shall
                           only relet on commercially reasonable terms and rent,
                           and if the Premises are relet in whole or in part,
                           Tenant shall be entitled to a credit in the net
                           amount of the Annual Rental or Additional Rental
                           received by Landlord as a result (after deducting all
                           reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in finding a
                           new tenant, including brokerage fees, agent's
                           commissions, redecorating costs, construction

                           fees and any other reasonable costs and expenses
                           incident thereto). Tenant shall remain obligated to
                           pay the amount of any deficiency in the Annual Rental
                           or any Additional Rental obtained on such reletting,
                           but if the Annual Rental or any Additional Rental
                           obtained on such reletting is greater than that
                           provided for herein plus Landlord's costs, such
                           excess rentals shall be the sole property of
                           Landlord, and (b) Landlord shall have the right to
                           collect from Tenant amounts equal to said
                           deficiencies provided for above by suits or
                           proceedings brought from time to time on one or more
                           occasions without Landlord being obligated to wait
                           until the expiration of the term of this Lease;
                           provided, however, Landlord shall not have the right
                           to accelerate payments of future rents. Any rentals
                           not paid by Tenant when due shall bear interest at
                           the Default Rate. No such reletting or other action
                           of Landlord shall be construed as an election on the
                           part of Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a
                           written notice of such intention is given to Tenant
                           by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this
                           Section 13.01(b)(ii), Landlord will use reasonable
                           efforts to mitigate its damages resulting from
                           Tenant's default.

         (c)      An election by Landlord of its remedies to terminate Tenant's
right of possession under Section 13.01(b)(ii) shall not prohibit Landlord from
subsequently exercising its rights to terminate the Lease under Section
13.01(b)(i).

         Section 13.02 Default by Landlord. Landlord shall be in default
hereunder ("Landlord's Default") in the event Landlord fails or refuses to
perform any of its obligations hereunder beyond (i) the specific times provided
in this Lease for the performance of its obligation(s) or (ii) a reasonable time
to cure such nonperformance not to exceed thirty (30) days following the receipt
by Landlord of written notice from Tenant of the alleged failure to perform (or
such shorter time period in the event of an emergency) unless additional time up
to a maximum of ninety (90) days in the aggregate is required to cure the
default which despite diligent and continuous effort, cannot by its very nature
be cured within thirty (30) days, provided such cure is commenced as soon as
commercially reasonable and is diligently prosecuted to completion. In the event
of a Landlord's Default which has not been cured by Landlord following notice
from Tenant, Tenant may, at anytime prior to such default being cured, terminate
this Lease no later than one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of Tenant's
written notice of termination to Landlord. In addition to the right to terminate
this Lease, Tenant may pursue any remedy at law or equity available to it under
the circumstances and arising directly from Landlord's Default.

within ninety (90) days, or if Tenant voluntarily files a petition in bankruptcy
or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors covering all or

the option of Landlord, exercised within thirty (30) days after notice of the

liable for rent and/or damages attorneys' fees as provided in Article Thirteen

Bankruptcy Code (or any successor thereto). However, if a petition for
reorganization or for an arrangement is filed by or against Tenant, Landlord may

as to violate the Certificate of Occupancy for the Building or the Complex.

obligation upon Tenant to make any structural changes to the Premises or
Building or repairs to the Building (unless necessitated by reason of a
particular use by Tenant of the Premises other than those uses specified in
Section 7.01(a) of this Lease) or Complex or to any changes or modifications to
the Building or Complex outside of the Premises. Tenant shall be responsible for
compliance with all current and future requirements for handicap accessibility

information which Landlord may reasonably request). Landlord shall have fifteen
(15) days from receipt of all of the foregoing to elect to (i) reject such
proposed assignment or sublease; or (ii) consent to the proposed assignment or
sublease; provided, however, Landlord will not unreasonably withhold its consent
to a proposed assignment or sublease.

Premises or any portion thereof to, or to permit occupancy of any portion of the
Premises by, any Affiliate (as hereinafter defined), any entity that acquires
substantially all of the assets of Tenant, any entity into which Tenant is

any portion of the Premises to any Affiliate.

         (d)      Any assignee of this Lease must execute a written assumption

collected by Tenant (Assignor or Sublessor) in excess of Annual Rental and
Additional Rentals payable hereunder and after deducting all reasonable costs
incurred by Tenant including brokerage fees, agents' commissions, redecorating
costs, construction allowance, lease concessions and other necessary
expenditures, such excess shall be shared in equal amounts between Tenant and
Landlord.

         Section 16.02 Assignment by Landlord. Landlord shall have the
continuing right to transfer, sell and/or assign all of its rights and
obligations under this Lease and in the Building, land and Common Building
Facilities and to assign, in whole or in part, (but only if Landlord sells the

this Lease). Upon the transfer of the entire estate and interest of Landlord
under this Lease, the transferor shall have no liability for obligations to
Tenant relating to events occurring after and to claims occurring after the date
of such transfer provided that transferee has signed a written agreement to
assume liability for such obligations and Tenant has been provided with a copy
of such agreement. Transferor shall remain responsible for its unfilled

prior to the transfer. "Landlord" shall mean the then-current owner of
Landlord's.

personally liable for any such judgment. In addition, Landlord specifically
agrees to limit any right of recovery from Tenant, and its affiliates and their
respective officers, directors, employees, or agents to the amount of the
limitation imposed upon Tenant in the above sentence and Tenant, and its
affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, or agents shall
not be personally liable for any judgment in excess of such limitation. The
provisions contained in the foregoing sentence is not intended to, and shall
not, limit any right that either party might otherwise have to obtain injunctive
relief against the other party or its successors in interest.

                                      -45-
<PAGE>

either party, that time period shall be extended by the period of any delay in

termination of this Lease.

         Section 26.10 15th Floor Sublease and Assignment Rights. With regard to
the Offered Space (as defined in Addendum Two to this Lease) only, Landlord
hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the tenant leasing the Offered Space
("15th Floor Tenant) (currently Oxley Petroleum) requests Landlord's consent to
any sublease or assignment of any portion of the Offered Space, then Landlord
shall immediately notify Tenant of such request and Landlord shall promptly
forward the terms of the proposed assignment or sublease to Tenant ("Proposed
Deal"). Tenant shall promptly (within five (5) business days of Tenant's receipt
of such proposed terms) notify Landlord if Tenant is interested in the Proposed

Tenant's lease with Landlord) without the consent or approval of Landlord.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any requested Proposal Deal (which requires
Landlord's consent) is not "reasonable", as reasonably determined by Landlord,
then Landlord shall not consent to such Proposed Deal.

                             WORK LETTER (ALLOWANCE)

         THIS WORK LETTER is attached as Exhibit "B" to Office Lease between K/B
FUND IV, as Landlord, and HELMERICH & PAYNE, INC., as Tenant, and constitutes
the further agreement between Landlord and Tenant as follows:

         (a)      Tenant Improvements. Landlord, at Tenant's cost and expense,
agrees to furnish or perform those items of construction and those improvements
(the "Tenant Improvements") specified in the Final Plans to be agreed to by
Landlord and Tenant as set forth in Paragraph (b) below; provided, however,
Landlord shall pay for the cost of such Tenant Improvements up to the extent of
the Tenant Improvement Allowance as set forth in Paragraph (e) below. Landlord
and its contractors shall construct and complete the Tenant Improvements in a
good and workmanlike manner consistent with good construction industry practice.

         (b)      Space Planner. Tenant has retained a space planner (the "Space
Planner") to prepare certain plans, drawings and specifications (the "Temporary
Plans") for the construction of Tenant Improvements to be installed in the
Premises by a general contractor to be mutually selected and agreed to by
Landlord and Tenant pursuant to this Work Letter. Tenant and Landlord are
working with the Space Planner to finalize and complete the Temporary Plans. The
parties hereto agree to work in good faith to approve and finalize the Temporary
Plans as soon as reasonably possible, but in no event later than May 15, 2003.
Each party shall have five (5) business days after its receipt of the proposed
Temporary Plans to review the same and notify the other party in writing of any
comments or required changes, or to otherwise give its approval or disapproval
of such proposed Temporary Plans. If either party fails to give written comments
to or approve the Temporary Plans within such five (5) business day period, then
such party shall be deemed to have approved the Temporary Plans as submitted.
The Space Planner shall redraw the proposed Temporary Plans in compliance with
each party's request and resubmit the same for to both Landlord and Tenant for
their final review and approval or comment within five (5) business days of the
Space Planner's receipt of such revised plans. Such process shall be repeated
until final approval by both parties of the proposed Temporary Plans has been
obtained. Once the Temporary Plans have been approved by Landlord and Tenant,
then the approved Temporary Plans shall be thereafter known as the "Final
Plans". The Final Plans shall include the complete and final layout, plans and
specifications for the Premises showing all doors, light fixtures, electrical
outlets, telephone outlets, wall coverings, plumbing improvements (if any), data
systems wiring, floor coverings, wall coverings, painting, any other
improvements to the Premises beyond the shell and core improvements provided by
Landlord and any demolition of existing improvements in the Premises. The
improvements shown in the Final Plans shall (i) utilize Landlord's building
standard or better materials and methods of construction, (ii) be compatible
with the shell and core improvements and the design, construction and equipment
of the Premises, and (iii) comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations,
codes and ordinances.

         (c)      Bids. As soon as practicable following the approval of the
Final Plans, Landlord and Tenant shall (i) obtain at least three (3) written
non-binding itemized estimates of the costs of all Tenant Improvements shown in
the Final Plans as prepared by general contractors selected

                                     B -- 1
<PAGE>

and mutually approved by Landlord and Tenant, and (ii) if required by applicable
law, codes or ordinances, submit the Final Plans to the appropriate governmental
agency for the issuance of a building permit or other required governmental
approvals prerequisite to commencement of construction of such Tenant
Improvements ("Permits"). Both Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that any cost
estimates that are prepared by the general contractors shall only be estimates
and neither party shall be liable to the other for any inaccuracy in any such
estimate. Landlord and Tenant shall mutually review such bids and mutually
select a general contractor. Both parties shall signify their final approval by
signing a copy of each sheet or page of the Final Plans and delivering such
signed copy to Landlord. The construction contract to be entered into by
Landlord and the general contractor mutually selected by Landlord and Tenant
will be a cost plus contract with a total cost cap. The construction contract
will be mutually approved by Landlord and Tenant.

         (d)      Construction. Landlord shall commence construction of the
Tenant Improvements within ten (10) days following the later of (i) the approval
of the Final Plans, or (ii) Landlord's receipt of any necessary Permits.
Landlord shall diligently and continuously pursue completion of construction of
the Tenant Improvements (as per the Final Plans) and use its commercially
reasonable efforts to complete construction of the Tenant Improvements as soon
as reasonably practicable. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a Tenant
Improvement Allowance in an amount up to $1,439,415.00 for the Office Space and
the Data Center Space ("Office Space Allowance"), and an amount up to $18,724
for the Storage Space ("Storage Space Allowance"). The Office Space Allowance,
Data Center Space Allowance and the Storage Space Allowance shall collectively
be known as the "Tenant Improvement Allowance". Additionally, if any portion of
the (i) third floor of the Building is included in the Premises, Landlord shall
also be responsible for upgrading the ceiling and lighting on the third floor at
Landlord's sole cost and expense and not as a part of the Office Space Allowance
and (ii) thirteenth floor of the Building is included in the Premises, Landlord
shall be responsible, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, and not as a part of
the Office Space Allowance, for the demolition and removal of the existing
improvements on the thirteenth floor and preparation of a "white box" suitable
to receive Tenant Improvements.

         (e)      Tenant Improvement Allowance. Subject to the terms and
provisions of this Work Letter, Landlord shall pay the cost of the Tenant
Improvements ("Work") up to the amount the Tenant Improvement Allowance. If the
amount of the lowest qualified bid to perform the Work exceeds the Tenant
Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall bear the cost of such excess and shall pay
the cost of such excess to Landlord when such amounts become due and owing to
the contractors. If the cost of the Work is less than such amount, then Tenant
shall receive the remaining balance of the Tenant Improvement Allowance as a
credit against Annual Rental in the first year of the Initial Term of this
Lease. All remaining amounts due to Landlord shall be paid upon the earlier of
Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements or presentation of a written
statement of the sums due. The cost of the Work shall not include a construction
management fee and shall not include any other fees payable to Landlord nor
shall Tenant be responsible for any such fees. Landlord shall indemnify and hold
harmless Tenant from and against any and all losses, damages, costs and expenses
(includes costs of suit and attorneys' fees), liabilities, or causes of action
arising out of or relating to any mechanics, materialmen's or other liens or
claims (and all costs or expenses associated therewith) asserted or filed
against the

                                     B -- 2
<PAGE>

Premises arising out of the construction of the Tenant Improvements as set forth
in this Exhibit "B".

         (f)      Change Order. If Landlord shall desire any changes to the
Final Plans, Landlord shall first obtain Tenant's prior consent to such change.
If Tenant shall desire any changes to the Final Plans (a "Tenant Change Order"),
Tenant shall so advise Landlord in writing and such change shall be
automatically approved by Landlord unless such change shall (i) adversely impact
the Building's mechanical, electrical or heating, ventilation or air
conditioning systems, or (ii) adversely impact the structure of the Building, or
(iii) be visible from the exterior of the Building or (iv) result in the
penetration or puncturing of the roof or floor, in which event such approval
shall not be automatic and Landlord must approve such change in writing, such
approval by Landlord not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any and all
out-of pocket third party costs of reviewing any Tenant Change Orders, and any
and all out-of-pocket third party costs of making any Tenant Change Orders shall
be at Tenant's sole cost and expense and shall be paid to Landlord upon demand
and before execution of the change order. In the event of any change to the
Final Plans or the Tenant Improvements pursuant to a Tenant Change Order, Tenant
shall instruct the Space Planner, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to complete
all working drawings necessary to show the change, addition or alteration being
requested by Tenant. The construction contract shall include a change order
mechanism stating that any change orders to the Final Plans or the Work can only
be made with the prior written consent of Landlord, Tenant and the general
contractor; provided, however, that any such change order and the cost of any
such change order must be pre-approved by Tenant. All such proposed change
orders shall contain a specific cost attributable to such change order.

         (g)      Substantial Completion. "Substantial Completion" of
construction of the Tenant Improvements shall be defined as the date upon which
the Space Planner determines that the Tenant Improvements have been
substantially completed in full compliance with the Final Plans, except for such
items that constitute minor defects or adjustments which can be completed within
thirty (30) days after occupancy without adversely affecting Tenant's use of all
or any portion of the Premises (so called "Punch List" items), unless the
completion of such improvements was delayed due to any Tenant Delay (defined
below), in which case the date of Substantial Completion shall be the date such
improvements would have been completed, but for the Tenant Delays. After the
completion of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall, upon demand, execute and
deliver to Landlord a letter of acceptance of improvements performed on the
Premises. The term "Tenant Delay" shall include, without limitation, any delay
in the completion of construction of Tenant Improvements resulting from (i) any
delay caused by Tenant's failure to comply with the provisions of this Work
Letter, (ii) delay in work caused by submission by Tenant of any Tenant Change
Orders, which in the aggregate result in the delay in the construction of the
Tenant Improvements for more than thirty (30) days, or (iii) any delay by Tenant
in timely submitting comments or approvals to the Temporary Plans or Final Plans
or any delay caused by Tenant in the initial delivery of the Temporary Plans to
Landlord on or before May 15, 2003, or (iv) any delay caused by Tenant's
commencement of business operations in the Premises prior to the Term
Commencement Date. The failure of Tenant to take possession of or to occupy the
Premises solely due to Tenant Delay shall not serve to relieve Tenant of
obligations arising on the Term Commencement Date or delay the payment of Rent
by Tenant.

                 As amended and restated effective June 24, 2003

         Section 1. Purpose. It is the purpose of the Plan to promote the
interests of the Company and its shareholders by providing a method by which
eligible employees may use voluntary payroll deductions to purchase shares of
Common Stock at a discount, thereby affording them the opportunity to invest in
the Company at a preferential price, and to acquire a proprietary interest in
the Company and an increased personal interest in its continued success and
progress. The Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan
within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code and shall be construed
accordingly.

         Section 2. Definitions. As used herein the following terms have the
following meanings:

into United States dollars in accordance with the Compensation Exchange Rate.

         (h) "Compensation Exchange Rate" means the New York foreign currency
exchange rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal for the first business day
immediately preceding the first business day of the applicable option period.

         (i) "Eligible Employee" means any employee of the Company or an
Affiliate who is eligible to participate in the Plan pursuant to Section 5
hereof.

         (j) "Fair Market Value" means the closing sale price on the date in

National Market System or, if the Common Stock is not traded on the NASDAQ
National Market System, such national stock exchange or stock market on which
the Common Stock may from time to time be traded.

Stock issued pursuant to Options granted under the Plan shall not exceed a total
of 2,000,000 shares. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for

Common Stock to be delivered upon exercise of Options may consist of authorized
but unissued shares of Common Stock or shares of Common Stock previously issued
and reacquired by the Company.

         Section 4. Administration of the Plan. The Plan shall be administered
by the Committee, which shall consist of three or more directors or executive
officers of the Company. Each member of the Committee shall be appointed by and
shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors
shall have the sole continuing authority to appoint members of the Committee
both in substitution for members previously appointed and to fill vacancies
however caused. The following provisions shall apply to the administration of
the Plan by the Committee:

(a) The Committee shall designate one of its members as Chairman and shall hold
meetings at such times and places as it may determine. Each member of the
Committee shall be notified in writing of the time and place of any meeting of
the Committee at least two days prior to such meeting, provided that such notice
may be waived by a

<PAGE>

Committee member. A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a
quorum and any action taken by a majority of the members of the Committee
present at any duly called meeting at which a quorum is present (or action

rules and regulations for the conduct of its business as it may determine.

(c) The Committee shall have full authority, subject to the express provisions
of the Plan to interpret the Plan, to provide, modify and rescind rules and
regulations relating to it and to make all other determinations and perform such
actions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to administer the Plan.

(d) No member of the Committee shall be liable for any action taken or
determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Option granted
hereunder.

         Section 5. Eligible Employees. Each employee of the Company or an
Affiliate who is employed by the Company or an Affiliate on the date his
participation in the Plan is to become effective shall be eligible to
participate in the Plan; provided, however, that: (a) An employee shall not be
granted an Option if such employee would, immediately after grant of the Option,
own stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of
all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation of
the Company (within the meaning of Section 424(e) and (f) of the Code). For
purposes of determining stock ownership under this paragraph, the rules of
Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply, and stock which the employee may
purchase under any outstanding options shall be treated as stock owned by the
employee; and

(b) No employee shall be granted an Option under the Plan which would permit
such employee's rights to purchase shares of stock under all employee stock
purchase plans of the Company and its parent and subsidiary corporations (within
the meaning of Section 424(e) and (f) of the Code) to accrue (within the meaning
of Section 423 (b) (8) of the Code) at a rate which exceeds U.S. $25,000 of fair
market value of such stock (determined at the time such option is granted) for
each calendar year during which any such option granted to such employee is
outstanding at any time.

         For purposes of this Section 5, the term "employee" shall not include
an employee whose customary employment is 20 hours or less per week or is for
not more than five months in any calendar year.

         Section 6. Method of Participation. Each person who will be an Eligible
Employee on any January 1 may elect to participate in the Plan by executing and
delivering, on or before the immediately preceding December 31, a payroll
deduction authorization as provided in this Section; provided, however, that an
Eligible Employee who elects not to participate on a given January 1 shall not
be eligible to participate in the Plan until the following January 1. Such
Eligible Employee shall thereby become a Participant on such January 1 and shall
remain a Participant until such Eligible Employee's participation is Terminated
as provided in Section 10 or 11 hereof.

         The payroll deduction authorization executed by a Participant shall
request withholding, by means of substantially equal payroll deductions over the
period during which he or she is a Participant, of an amount which shall be no
more than 10% nor less than 1 % of such Participant's Compensation for a given
option period. A Participant may change the withholding rate of his or her
payroll deduction authorization within such limits by delivering a new payroll
deduction authorization form to the Company on or before the December 31
immediately preceding the option period with respect to which the change is to
be effective, A Participant may not change the withholding rate of his or her
payroll deduction authorization with respect to an option period at any time
after the deadline set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. All amounts
withheld in accordance with a Participant's payroll deduction authorization
shall be credited to a withholding account for such Participant. No interest
shall be payable on withholding accounts.

         Section 7. Grant of Options. The Plan will be implemented in
twelve-month option periods beginning on the first day of each January and
ending on the following December 31 until the Plan is terminated. Each
Participant shall be granted an Option on the first day of each option period to
purchase the number of whole shares of Common Stock determined by dividing (x)
the aggregate payroll deduction authorized by such Participant for the option
period by (y) 85% of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the
first day of the option period. Each Option shall be exercisable as provided in
Section 9 on the last business day of an option period. In no event shall the
number of shares with respect to which an Option is granted to a Participant for
a calendar year exceed that number of shares which has an aggregate Fair Market
Value (determined on the date of grant) of U.S. $25,000, and the number of
shares actually purchased by a Participant in a calendar year may not exceed
this number. The Company shall reduce, on a substantially proportionate basis,
the number of shares of Common Stock receivable by each Participant upon
exercise of an Option in the event that the total number of shares then

                                   A-2
<PAGE>

available under the Plan is less than the total number of shares with respect to
which all Participants exercise Options in such option period.

         Section 8. Option Price. The purchase price per share of Common Stock
under each Option shall equal the lesser of (a) 85% of the Fair Market Value per
share of Common Stock on the date of grant of the Option or (b) 85% of the Fair
Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date on which the Option is
exercised. If the Common Stock of the Company is not admitted to trading on any
of the aforesaid dates for which closing prices of the stock are to be
determined, then reference shall be made to the Fair Market Value of the stock
on that date, as determined on such basis as shall be established or specified
for the purpose by the Committee.

         Section 9. Exercise of Options. An employee who is a Participant in the
Plan on the last business day of an option period shall be deemed automatically
to have exercised the current installment of the Option granted to him or her
for that option period. Upon such exercise, the Company shall apply the entire
balance of the Participant's withholding account to the purchase of the maximum
number of whole shares of Common Stock as determined under Section 7. For
purposes of this Section 9, the balance in the withholding account of a
Participant whose salary or wages are not computed in United States dollars
shall be converted into United States dollars in accordance with the New York
foreign currency exchange rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal for the
last business day of the option period. Certificates representing shares of
Common Stock purchased for a Participant under the Plan shall be issued and
delivered to the Participant as soon as practicable after such shares are
purchased; provided, however, that the obligation of the Company to deliver
shares of Common Stock shall be postponed for such period of time as may be
necessary to register or qualify the purchased shares under the Securities Act
of 1933 and any applicable foreign or state securities law.

         A Participant shall possess none of the rights or privileges of a
shareholder of the Company with respect to Common Stock purchased under the Plan
unless and until certificates representing such shares have been issued. No
fractional shares shall be issued upon exercise of any installment of an Option.
Any balance remaining in a Participant's withholding account following exercise
of an installment shall be returned to the Participant. The cash proceeds
received by the Company upon exercise of an Option shall constitute general
funds of the Company. Any unexercised portion of an Option shall expire and
become null and void as of the end of the option period in which such Option was
granted.

         Section 10. Cancellation of Option and Withdrawal From the Plan. A
Participant who holds an Option under the Plan may at any time prior to exercise
thereof pursuant to Section 9 cancel the remaining unexercised portion of such
Option by written notice delivered to the Treasurer of the Company. Upon such
cancellation, the balance in the Participant's withholding account shall be
returned to such Participant and he or she shall cease to be a Participant.
Partial cancellations shall not be permitted.

        A Participant may terminate his payroll deduction authorization as of
any date by written notice delivered to the Treasurer of the Company and shall
thereby cease to be a Participant as of such date. Partial termination of a
payroll deduction authorization shall not be permitted, except to the extent
expressly permitted by Section 6 of this Plan. Any Participant who voluntarily
terminates his or her payroll deduction authorization prior to the last business
day of an option period shall be deemed to have cancelled his or her Option for
such option period.

         A Participant who withdraws from the Plan pursuant to this Section 10
may re-enroll as of any subsequent January 1 on which he or she is an Eligible
Employee in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 6 of this Plan;
provided, however, that a Participant shall not be permitted to re-enroll in the
Plan until a January 1 that is at least one month after the date of his or her
withdrawal.

         Section 11. Termination of Employment. Upon the termination of a
Participant's employment with the Company or an Affiliate for any reason, such
person shall cease to be a Participant, the Option held by such Participant
under the Plan shall be deemed cancelled, the balance of such Participant's
withholding account shall be returned to such Participant (or, in the event of
the Participant's death, to the executor or administrator of his or her estate)
and he or she shall have no further rights under the Plan.

         All Participants shall have the same rights and privileges under the
Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the Plan shall confer upon any
Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or an Affiliate
or in any way interfere with the right of the Company or an Affiliate to
terminate the employment of the Participant at any time, with or without cause.
Transfers of employment among the Company and its Affiliates and approved leaves
of absence not exceeding 90 days shall not be considered terminations of
employment for purposes of this Plan.

         Section 12. Transferability. An Option granted under the Plan shall not
be transferable by the Participant and shall be exercisable only by the
Participant.

         Section 13. Adjustments Upon Changes in Common Stock. In the event the
Company shall effect a split of the Common Stock or declare a dividend payable
in Common Stock, or in the event the outstanding Common Stock shall be combined
into a smaller number of shares, the maximum number of shares as to which
Options may be granted under the Plan shall be increased or decreased
proportionately, and the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the
date of grant of all outstanding Options shall be adjusted, for purposes of
making the determination required by Section 8 of this Plan, in a manner deemed
appropriate by the Board of Directors.

         In the event of a reclassification of Common Stock not covered by the
foregoing, or in the event of a liquidation or reorganization of the Company,
including a merger, consolidation or sale of assets, the Board of Directors
shall make such adjustments, if any, as it may deem appropriate in the number,
purchase price and kind of shares that are covered by Options theretofore
granted under the Plan or that are otherwise subject to the Plan. The provisions
of this Section shall only be applicable if, and only to the extent that, the
application thereof does not conflict with any valid governmental statute,
regulation or rule.

         Section 14. Amendment and Termination of the Plan. Subject to the right
of the Board of Directors to terminate the Plan prior thereto, the Plan shall
terminate when all or substantially all of the Common Stock reserved for
purposes of the Plan has been purchased. No Options may be granted after
termination of the Plan. The Board of Directors may alter or amend the Plan but
may not without the approval of the shareholders of the Company and of any
regulatory authorities having jurisdiction make any alteration or amendment
thereof which operates (a) to increase the total number of shares of Common
Stock which may be issued under the Plan (other than as provided in Section 13),
(b) to modify the criteria for determining the employees (or class of employees)
eligible to receive Options under the Plan or (c) to materially increase
benefits accruing under the Plan to Participants who are subject to Section 16
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").

         No termination or amendment of the Plan shall adversely affect the
rights of a Participant under an outstanding Option, except with the consent of
such Participant.

         Section 15. Requirements of Law. The granting of Options and the
issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of an Option shall be subject to all
applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approval by governmental
agencies as may be required.

         Section 16. Effective Date of Amended and Restated Plan. The amended
and restated Plan shall become effective, as of the date of its adoption by the
Board of Directors, if it is duly approved at the 2003 annual meeting of
shareholders of the Company. The affirmative vote of the holders of at least a
majority of the shares of Common Stock of the Company present or represented
and voting on the proposal to approve the amended Plan at the annual meeting,
shall be required to approve the amended and restated Plan. If the amended and
restated Plan is not so approved, the terms of the Plan as in effect prior to
the effective date of this amended and restated Plan shall remain in full force
and effect.

         Section 17. Rule 16b-3 Compliance. Transactions under this Plan are
intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its
successors adopted under the Exchange Act, some of which conditions are not set
forth herein. To the extent any provision of the Plan or action by the Committee
fails to so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by
law and deemed advisable by the Committee.
