THE STATE OF VIRGINIA)
                                                                 LEASE AGREEMENT
COUNTY OF PRINCE WILLIAM)

         THIS LEASE AGREEMENT (the "Lease") is made and entered into as of the
31st day of May 2002 between BRANCH BANKING AND TRUST COMPANY OF VIRGINIA, which
owns a facility known as 1308 Devils Reach Road. Woodbridge, Virginia,
(hereinafter called "Lessor"), and EOIR TECHNOLOGIES, INC. whose address for
purposes hereof is 20 Sanford Drive, Fredericksburge, Virginia (hereinafter
called "Lessee").

         Subject to and upon the terms, provisions and conditions hereinafter
set forth, and each in consideration of the duties, covenants and obligations of
the other hereunder, Lessor and Lessee hereby agree as follows:

PREMISES

         1. (a) Lessor does hereby lease, demise and let to Lessee and Lessee
does hereby lease and take from Lessor those certain premises (hereinafter
sometimes called the "Premises" or "Leased Premises") as more particularly
described on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit B) in the building known
as BB&T Square Building located at 1308 Devils Reach Road. Suite 104 in the City
of Woodbridge, Virginia, County, Prince William, located on the real property as
more particularly described on attached Exhibit A, each initialed for
identification by both parties (which building and the real property on which it
is located is hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the "Building").

         (b) The term "net rentable area," as used herein, shall refer to: (i)
in the case of a single tenancy floor, all floor area measured from the inside
surface of the outer glass or finished column wall of the Building to the inside
surface of the opposite outer wall excluding only the service areas ("Service
Areas") within the outside walls used for building stairs, fire towers, elevator
shafts, flues, vents, stacks, pipe shafts and vertical ducts, but including any
such Service Areas which are for the specific use of the particular tenant such
as special stairs or elevators plus an allocation of the square footage of the
Building's elevator mechanical rooms and ground floor and basement lobbies (if
applicable), and (ii) in the case of a floor to be occupied by more than one
tenant, all floor areas within the inside surface of the outer glass or finished
column walls enclosing the Leased Premises and measured to the mid-point of the
walls separating areas leased by or held for lease to other tenants or from
areas devoted to corridors, stairwells, elevator foyers, rest rooms, mechanical
rooms, janitor closets, vending areas and other similar facilities for the use
of all tenants on the particular floor (hereinafter sometimes called "Common
Areas"), but including a proportionate part of the Common Areas located on such
floor based upon the ratio which the tenant's net rentable area (excluding
Common Areas) on such floor bears to the aggregate net rentable area (excluding
Common Areas) on such floor plus an allocation of the square footage of the
Building's elevator mechanical rooms and ground floor and basement lobbies (if
applicable). No deductions from net rentable area shall be made for columns or
projections necessary to the Building. The net rentable area in the Leased
Premises has been calculated on the basis of the foregoing definition and is
hereby stipulated for all purposes hereof to be 5,420 Rentable square feet,
whether the same should be more or less as a result of minor variations
resulting from actual construction and completion of the Leased Premises for
occupancy so long as such work is done substantially in accordance with the
terms and provisions hereof. Lessee agrees that, except as expressly stated
herein, no representations or warranties with respect to the condition of the
Premises and no promises to decorate, alter, repair or improve the Premises have
been made by Lessor, and Lessee agrees to accept the Premises in an "AS IS WHERE
IS" condition as tendered by Lessor.

TERM

         2. (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein,
or in any exhibit hereto, this Lease shall continue in force for a term of 36
months ("Term") beginning on the 1st day of October, 2002 (the "Commencement
Date and ending on the 30th day of September, 2005 (the "Termination Date").

         (b) In the event the Leased Premises should not be ready for occupancy
by the Commencement Date for any reason, Lessor shall not be liable or
responsible for any claims, damages or liabilities in connection therewith or by
reason thereof, and the Term of this Lease shall commence at the time that the
Leased Premises are ready for occupancy by Lessee. Should the Term of this Lease
commence on a date other than that specified in Paragraph 2 (a) above, Lessor
and Lessee will, at the request of either, execute a declaration specifying the
beginning date of the Term of this Lease. In such event, rental under this Lease
shall not commence until that time (herein "Revised Commencement Date"), and the
Term in this Lease shall thereupon commence and the expiration date shall be
extended so as to give effect to the full stated Term.

<PAGE>

AUTHORIZED USE

         3. The Leased Premises are to be used and occupied by Lessee solely for
the purpose of office space to conduct the business of Business Office and
Secured Conferences which are Non-Financial in Nature and for no other purpose.

BASE RENTAL

         4. Lessee hereby agrees to pay a base annual rental (herein called
"Base Rental") in accordance with the following schedule:

                 Year            Monthly Rental           Annual Rental
                 ----            --------------           -------------

                   1               $7,226.67               $86,720.04
                   2               $7,452.50               $89,430.00
                   3               $7,678.33               $92,139.96

The Lessee shall also pay, as additional rent, all such other sums of money as
shall become due from and payable by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease. The
Lessor shall have the same remedies for default for the payment of additional
rent as are available to Lessor in the case of a default in the payment of Base
Rental (the Base Rental and additional rent sometimes are referred to herein
collectively as the "Rent" or the "rent"). Such Base Rental, together with any
adjustment of rent as set forth in Paragraph 5 of this Lease, shall be due and
payable in twelve (12) equal installments on the first day of each calendar
month during the initial Term of this Lease and any extensions or renewals
thereof, and Lessee hereby agrees to so pay such rent to Lessor at Lessor's
address as provided herein (or such other address as may be designated by Lessor
from time to time) monthly in advance without demand and without abatement,
offset, deduction or counterclaim, If the Term of this Lease as heretofore
established commences other than on the first day of a month or terminates other
than on the last day of a month, then the installments of Base Rental and any
additional rent for such month or months shall be prorated and the installment
or installments so prorated shall be paid in advance. All past due installments
of rent shall bear interest at the maximum rate per annum permitted by law (the
"Default Rate") until paid.

BASE RENTAL ADJUSTMENT FOLLOWING BASE YEAR

          5. (a) There is established under this Lease a "Base Year," which for
these purposes is the calendar year 2002. 4n the event that the Basic Costs (as
hereinafter defined in subparagraph 5(d)) of Lessor's operation of the Building
during the first calendar year after the Base Year shall differ from the Basic
Costs of the Lessor therefor during the Base Year, Lessee shall pay its
proportionate share of the increases in the Basic Costs for such year in the
proportion its net rentable area bears to 95% of the total net rentable area of
the Building ("Lessee's Proportionate Share"). Any increase payable by Lessee
under this provision shall be deemed additional rent. Lessor shall, within the
period of one hundred fifty (150) days (or as soon thereafter as possible) after
the close of the first calendar year after the Base Year, give Lessee a
statement of such year's actual Basic Costs and a comparison with the Base
Year's Basic Costs. If such year's Basic Costs are greater than the Base Year's
Basic Costs, Lessee shall pay Lessor, within thirty (30) days of statement
receipt, Lessee's Proportionate Share of such increase. If Basic Costs for the
year covered by such statement are less than the Base Year's Basic Costs, Lessee
shall not be obligated (as to such year) for rent in excess of Base Rental
stated in Paragraph 4.

          (b) For each year during the Term of this Lease following the first
calendar year after the Base Year, Lessor shall provide Lessee a comparison of
the Base Year's Basic Costs and the projected Basic Costs for such year prior to
January I of such year, and Lessee shall thereafter pay an Adjusted Base Rental
for such year which shall include Lessee's Proportionate Share of any projected
increase in Lessor's Basic Costs of operating the Building over the Base Year's
Basic Costs. Lessor shall, within the period of one hundred fifty (150) days (or
as soon thereafter as possible), after the close of each calendar year following
the first calendar year after the Base Year, provide Lessee a statement of such
year's actual Basic Costs showing the actual increase in Lessor's Basic Costs of
operating the Building from the Base Year (the "Comparison Statement"). If the
actual increase from Base Year is greater than that projected, Lessee shall pay
Lessor, within thirty (30) days of statement receipt, Lessee's Proportionate
Share of the difference. If such year's projected Basic Costs are greater than
the actual Basic Costs, Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days of said
statement's issuance, receive a credit therefor. The credit shall be applied to
future monthly payments attributable to adjusted Base Rental, or if this Lease
has expired, such amount shall be refunded to Lessee; provided, however, the
rent owed by Lessee shall never be less than the Base Rental stated in Paragraph
4.

                                    2 of 24
<PAGE>

        (c) At the expiration of the last calendar year of the Term of this
Lease, Lessor shall furnish to Lessee a Comparison Statement as described above.
The Lessee's obligation for the payment to the Lessor of the increase in
expenses, if any, for the last calendar year of this Lease Term over those
expenses for the previous calendar year shall not be obviated by the termination
of this Lease according to its terms or the vacation of the Premises by Lessee,
and the amount payable shall be paid by Lessee within thirty (30) days after
receipt of such Comparison Statement.

          (d) "Basic Costs" as used herein shall consist of all operating
expenses of the Building, which shall be computed on the accrual basis and shall
consist of all expenditures by Lessor to maintain all facilities in operation
during the Base Year and such additional facilities in subsequent years as may
be determined by Lessor to be necessary. All operating expenses shall be
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which
shall be consistently applied. The term "operating expenses" as used herein
shall mean all expenses, costs and disbursements (but not replacement of capital
investment items nor specific costs especially billed to and paid by specific
tenants) of every kind and nature which Lessor shall pay or become obligated to
pay because of or in connection with the ownership and operation of the Building
including, but not limited to, the following:

                  (1) Wages and salaries of all employees engaged in operating
         and maintenance or security of the Building, including (but not limited
         to) taxes insurance and benefits relating thereto.

                  (2) All supplies and materials used in operation and
         maintenance of the Building.

                  (3) Cost of all utilities for the Building, including (but not
         limited to) the cost of water and power, heating, lighting, air
         conditioning and ventilating for the Building.

                  (4) Cost of all maintenance and service agreements for the
         Building and the equipment therein, including (but not limited to)
         alarm service, mechanical systems, janitorial services, window cleaning
         and elevator maintenance.

                  (5) Cost of all insurance relating to the Building, including
         (but not limited to) the cost of casualty and liability insurance
         applicable to the Building, business interruption (loss rents)
         insurance and Lessor's personal property used in connection therewith.

                  (6) All taxes (including ad valorem taxes and property taxes)
         and all other taxes, assessments and governmental charges whether
         federal, state, county or municipal, and whether they be by taxing
         districts or authorities presently taxing the Leased Premises or by
         others, subsequently created or otherwise, and any other taxes and
         assessments attributable to the Building or its operation. If a rental
         tax, gross receipts tax or sales or use tax on rent is imposed on
         Lessor by any governmental authority, Lessee shall, as additional rent,
         reimburse Lessor, at the same time as each monthly payment of rent is
         due, an amount equal to all such taxes Lessor is required to pay by
         reason of the rent paid hereunder. It is agreed that Lessee will be
         responsible for ad valorem taxes on its personal property and on the
         value of leasehold improvements to the extent that same exceed standard
         building allowances.

                  (7) Cost of repairs and general maintenance, including but not
         limited to the costs of maintaining, converting, replacing, or removing
         equipment containing or using freon or other chlorofluorocarbons, which
         may be deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by Lessor or which
         may be mandated by present or future laws or regulations.

                  (8) Cost of installation of capital investment items which are
         primarily for the purpose of reducing operating costs.

                  (9) An amount equal to three percent (3%) of Lessee's Base
         Rental as an administrative fee or charge.

                  (10) Management fees, if any.

                  (11) The cost of all legal and accounting expenses incurred in
         connection with the ownership and operation of the Building.

                                    3 of 24
<PAGE>

         (e). If Lessee fails to pay part or all of the Rent within ten (10)
days after it is due, the Lessee shall also pay: (i) interest at the Default
Rate (defined below) on the unpaid balance from the date originally due until
paid, plus (ii) a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the unpaid rent or
the maximum then allowed by applicable law, whichever is less.

         (f). If the Term does not begin on the first day or end on the last day
of a calendar month, the installment of Base Rental for that partial month shall
be prorated by multiplying the monthly Base Rental by a fraction the numerator
of which is the number of days of the partial month included in the Term and the
denominator of which is the total number of days in the full calendar month.

SECURITY DEPOSIT

        6. Lessee shall within ten (10) days of the execution of this Lease by
Lessor deposit a security deposit (the "Security Deposit") in the amount of
7226.67 with Lessor to secure Lessee's performance of its Lease obligations. If
Lessee defaults Lessor may, without prejudice to Lessor's other remedies apply
part or all of the Security Deposit to cure Lessee's default. If Lessor so uses
part or all of the Security Deposit, then Lessee shall within ten (10) days
after written demand, pay Lessor the amount needed to restore the Security
Deposit to its original amount. Any part of the Security Deposit not used by the
Lessor as permitted by this Lease shall be returned to Lessee after the
Termination Date. If Lessor sells the Building then the Lessor shall transfer
the balance of the Security Deposit to the new owner and shall be relieved of
any liability for the Security Deposit. Lessee shall not be entitled to any
interest on the Security Deposit, and Lessor may commingle the same with other
monies of Lessor.

SERVICES TO BE FURNISHED BY LESSOR

          7. Lessor covenants and agrees with Lessee:

         (a) To use reasonable efforts to cause public utilities to furnish the
electricity, gas and water utilized in operating any and all facilities serving
the Leased Premises.

         (b) To furnish (as part of the Basic Costs of the Building) Lessee
while occupying the Premises:

                  (i) Hot and cold water and sewer service at those points of
supply provided for general use of other tenants and in such amounts as are
determined by Lessor to be standard, but not including water and sewer required
for operation of Lessee's non-standard equipment (such as additional nonstandard
air conditioning equipment), which shall be furnished only upon the request of
Lessee, who shall bear the entire cost thereof.

                  (ii) Central heat and air conditioning in season, at such
temperatures and in such amounts as are considered by Lessor to be standard
[being from Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Saturday 8:00 AM to
12:00 PM (the "Building Standard Hours")], but such service at all other times
will be furnished only upon the reasonable request of Lessee, who shall bear the
entire cost thereof.

                  (iii) Routine maintenance and electric lighting service for
all public areas and special service areas of the Building in the manner and to
the extent deemed by Lessor to be standard (from Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM
to 6:00 PM, and Saturday 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM), but such service at all other
times will be furnished only upon the reasonable request of Lessee, who shall
bear the entire cost thereof.

                  (iv) Janitor service on a five (5) day week basis at no extra
charge; provided, however, if Lessee's floor covering or other improvements is
other than building standard, Lessee shall pay the additional cleaning cost
attributable thereto as additional rent. Lessee shall pay said additional rent
upon presentation of a statement therefor by Lessor, and Lessee's failure to pay
shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

                  (v) All building standard fluorescent bulb replacement in all
Common Areas and all incandescent bulb replacement in public areas, toilet and
rest room areas and stair-wells.

          (c) To furnish Lessee two (2) keys for each corridor door entering the

order signed by Lessee or Lessee's authorized representative. All such keys
shall remain the property of Lessor. No additional locks shall be allowed on any
door of the Leased Premises without Lessor's written permission, and Lessee

                                    4 of 24
<PAGE>

shall not make, or permit to be made any duplicate keys, except those furnished
by Lessor. Upon termination of this Lease, Lessee shall surrender to Lessor all
keys of the Leased Premises, and give to Lessor the explanation of the
combination of all locks for safes, safe cabinets and vault doors, if any, in
the Leased Premises.

          (d) To provide and install, at Lessee's cost, all letters or numerals
on doors in the Leased Premises. All such letters and numerals shall be in the
building standard graphics, and no others shall be used or permitted on the
Leased Premises or the Building.

          (e) Lessor is not required to provide generator power to Lessee at any
time or for any reason. Lessee hereby expressly acknowledges that said generator
power may be available to Lessor in any space it occupies in the Building (the
cost thereof being at the sole expense of Lessor).

         Notwithstanding subparagraphs (a) through (e) above, Lessor reserves
the right, without any liability to Lessee and without affecting Lessee's
covenants and obligations hereunder (provided Lessor gives reasonable prior
notice to Lessee, except in the case of an emergency), to stop service of the
HVAC, electric, sanitary, elevator (if any), or other systems serving the
Premises, or to stop any other services required by Lessor under this Lease,
whenever and for so long as may be necessary by reason of (i) accidents,
emergencies, strikes, or the making of repairs or changes which Lessor in good
faith deems necessary or (ii) any other cause beyond Lessor's reasonable
control. Further, it is also understood and agreed that Lessor shall have no
liability or responsibility for a cessation of any services to the Premises or
to the property of the Lessee that occurs as a result of causes beyond Lessor's
reasonable control. No such interruption of service shall be deemed an eviction
or disturbance of Lessee's use and possession of the Premises or any part
thereof, or render Lessor liable to Lessee for damages, or relieve Lessee from
performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, including, but not limited
to, the obligation to pay rent.

IMPROVEMENTS

         8. (a) All installations now or hereafter placed on the Leased Premises
in excess of building standard items as determined by Lessor shall be for
Lessee's account and at Lessee's cost (and Lessee shall pay ad valorem taxes and
increased insurance thereon), which cost shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor as
additional rent hereunder promptly upon being invoiced therefor. Failure by
Lessee to pay said additional rent in full within thirty (30) days shall
constitute an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) by Lessee hereunder,
giving rise to all remedies available to Lessor under this Lease and at law for
nonpayment of rent.

         (b) Lessee and Lessor agree that the improvements if any, set forth in
Paragraph 6 of Special Stipulations attached as Exhibit D hereto ("Lessee
Improvements") shall be completed in accordance with the terms and conditions
set forth in Paragraph 6 of Special Stipulations. Any and all such Lessee
Improvements shall be fully described in the plans and specifications set forth
in Paragraph 6 of Special Stipulations, which plans and specifications shall
require the prior written approval of Lessor, which approval may be withheld in
Lessor's sole and absolute discretion. The plans and specifications shall
include, if requested by Lessor, a calculation of Lessee's fully connected
electrical design load with and without demand factors and shall indicate the
number of watts of un-metered and sub-metered loads. Lessee acknowledges that
the Lessee Improvements will be designed and constructed by independent
architects, engineers and contractors. Accordingly, Lessor does not guarantee or
warrant that such Lessee Improvements will be free from defects, and Lessor
shall have no liability therefor. In the event of any defects, Lessor shall
assign any warranties to Lessee. Funding for Lessee Improvements shall be
provided in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 6 of Special
Stipulations.

QUIET ENJOYMENT

         9. Lessee shall, and may peacefully have, hold and enjoy the Leased
Premises, subject to the other terms hereof, provided that Lessee pays the rent
and other sums herein recited to be paid by Lessee, and performs all of Lessee's
covenants and agreements herein contained. It is understood and agreed that this
covenant and any and all other covenants of Lessor contained in the Lease shall
be binding upon Lessor and its successors only with respect to breaches
occurring during its and their respective ownership of the Lessor's interest
hereunder.

                                    5 of 24
<PAGE>

LIMITATION OF LESSOR'S PERSONAL LIABILITY

         10. Lessee specifically agrees to look solely to Lessor's interest in
the Building for the recovery of any judgment from Lessor, it being agreed that
Lessor shall never be personally liable for any such judgment. The provision
contained in the foregoing sentence is not intended to, and shall not, limit any
right that Lessee might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief against
Lessor or Lessor's successors in interest, or any other action not involving the
personal liability of Lessor to respond in monetary damages from assets other
than Lessor's interest in the Building, or any suit or action in connection with
enforcement or collection of amounts which may become owing or payable under or
on account of insurance maintained by Lessor.

PARKING

         11. While Lessee is occupying the Premises and is not in default under
the terms of this Lease, Lessee shall have the right in common with other
tenants to use the number of parking spaces in the Building's or another parking
lot indicated on attached Exhibit C, subject to rules and regulations
promulgated from time to time by Lessor. Lessee shall be entitled to use only
that number of spaces allocated on Exhibit C. Nothing herein contained shall be
construed to grant to Lessee any estate in real property nor the exclusive right
to a particular parking space, but rather as a license only. At such time and
under such circumstances as Lessor deems appropriate, Lessor may rearrange
assigned parking spaces or may eliminate assigned spaces altogether and may
provide attendant parking or such other system or management of parking as it
deems necessary or desirable. Upon Lessor's request, Lessee shall provide Lessor
with a list of automobile license numbers assigned to cars used by Lessee's
employees and shall thereafter notify Lessor within five (5) days of any change
in such information. If Lessee or its employees shall fail to park in designated
areas, then, without limiting in any way Lessor's other rights or remedies,
Lessor, after notice to Lessee, shall have the right to charge Lessee the sum of
$20.00 per day per car parked in violation of the provisions of this Lease.
Lessee shall notify its employees of the provisions of this Paragraph 11.

PAYMENTS BY LESSEE

         12. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor to pay all rent and sums
provided to be paid to Lessor under this Lease at the times and in the manner
herein provided.

REPAIRS BY LESSOR

         13. Lessee hereby accepts the Premises in their present condition and
acknowledges that no representation or warranty as to the condition of the
Premises has been made to it. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor that
unless otherwise stipulated herein, Lessor shall not be required to make any
improvements to or repairs of any kind or character on the Leased Premises
during the term of this Lease, except such repairs as may be deemed necessary by
Lessor for normal maintenance operations. The obligation of Lessor to maintain
and repair the Leased Premises shall be limited to building standard items;
provided, however, that the need for any such repairs is not caused by the fault
or negligence of Lessee, its officers, agents, employees, or servants. Lessee
agrees that it shall report immediately in writing to Lessor any defective
condition in or about the Premises known to Lessee. Special leasehold
improvements will, at Lessee's written request, be maintained by Lessor at
Lessee's expense, at a cost or charge equal to the costs incurred in such
maintenance, plus an additional charge to cover overhead.

REPAIRS BY LESSEE

         14. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor, at Lessee's own cost and
expense, to repair or replace any damage or injury done to the Building, or any
part thereof, caused by Lessee or Lessee's agents, employees, invitees or
visitors; provided, however, if Lessee fails to make such repairs or replacement
promptly, Lessor may, at its option, make repairs or replacements, and Lessee
shall repay the cost thereof to the Lessor on demand, subject to the provisions
of Paragraph 39.

CARE OF LEASED PREMISES

         15. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor not to commit or allow any
waste or damage to be committed on any portion of the Leased Premises, and at
the termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise, to deliver up said
Leased Premises to Lessor in as good a condition as at date of possession by
Lessee, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and upon such termination of this
Lease, Lessor shall have the right to re-enter and resume possession of the
Leased Premises.

                                    6 of 24
<PAGE>

ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE

          16. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor that in the event Lessee
should desire to assign this Lease or sublet the Leased Premises or any part
thereof, Lessee shall give Lessor written notice of such desire at least sixty
(60) days in advance of the date on which Lessee desires to make such assignment
or sublease and naming the intended assignee or sublessee. In no event will
Lessee attempt to assign the Lease or sublease the Premises or any portion
thereof to any bank, financial services company, insurance company or similar
entity which would be competitive with the businesses engaged in by BB&T or any
of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Lessor shall then have a period of thirty
(30) days following receipt of such notice within which to notify Lessee in
writing that Lessor elects, in its sole and absolute discretion, one of the
following: (1) to terminate this Lease as to the space so affected as of the
date so specified by Lessee, in which event Lessee will be relieved of all
further obligation hereunder as to such space, or (2) to permit Lessee to assign
or sublet such space, subject, however, to subsequent written approval of the
proposed assignee or sublessee by Lessor, or (3) to refuse to consent to
Lessee's assignment or subleasing such space and to continue this Lease in full
force and effect as to the entire Leased Premises. If Lessor should fail to
notify Lessee in writing of such election within said thirty (30) day period,
Lessor shall be deemed to have elected option (3) above. For purposes of this
Lease, a merger between Lessee and another party or the transfer of
substantially all of the assets of Lessee to another party shall constitute an
assignment. No assignment or subletting by Lessee shall relieve Lessee of any
obligation under this Lease. Any attempted assignment or sublease by Lessee in
violation of the terms and covenants of this Paragraph 16 shall be void.

SUBORDINATION; ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES

          17. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor that the rights and
interests of Lessee under this Lease and in and to the Premises shall be subject
and subordinate to first deeds of trust, mortgages, and other security
instruments and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and
extensions thereof (the "Security Documents") heretofore or hereafter executed
by Lessor covering the Premises, the Building and the land or any parts thereof,
to the same extent as if the Security Documents had been executed, delivered and
recorded prior to the execution of this Lease. After the delivery to Lessee of a
notice from Lessor that it has entered into one or more Security Documents,
then, during the term of such Security Documents, Lessee shall deliver to the
holder or holders of all Security Documents a copy of all notices to Lessor and
shall grant to such holder or holders the right to cure all defaults, if any, of
Lessor hereunder within the same time period provided in this Lease for curing
such defaults by Lessor and, except with the prior written consent of the holder
or holders of the Security Documents, Lessee shall not surrender or terminate
this Lease except pursuant to a right to terminate expressly set forth in this
Lease. The provisions of this Paragraph shall be self-operative and shall not
require further agreement by Lessee; however, at the request of Lessor, Lessee
shall execute such further documents as may be required or requested to evidence
and set forth for the benefit of the holder of any Security Documents the
obligations of Lessee hereunder. At any time and from time to time upon not less
than ten (10) days' prior notice by Lessor, Lessee shall execute, acknowledge
and deliver to the Lessor a statement of the Lessee in writing certifying (i)
the Rentable Area of the Premises, (ii) the Commencement Date and Termination
Date of this Lease, (iii) the Base Rental and Base Rental Adjustment (additional
rent as set forth in Paragraph 5 of this Lease), (iv) that this Lease is
unmodified and in full force and effect, or if there have been modifications,
that the same are in full force and effect as modified and stating the
modifications, (v) whether or not the Lessor is in default in the keeping,
observance or performance of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or
condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default, (vi)
that Lessee has unconditionally accepted and occupied the Premises, (vii) that
all requirements of the Lease have been complied with and no charges, set-offs
or other credits exists against any rent, (viii) that Lessee has not assigned,
pledged, sublet, or otherwise transferred any interest in this Lease, and (ix)
such other matters as Lessor may reasonably request, it being intended that any
such statement may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser, lessee,
mortgagee or assignee of any mortgage of the Building or of the Lessor's
interest therein.

ALTERATIONS, ADDITIONS, and IMPROVEMENTS

          18. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor not to permit the Leased
Premises to be used for any purpose other than that stated in Paragraph 3
hereof, or make or allow to be made any alterations or physical additions in or
to the Leased Premises, or place signs on the Leased Premises which are visible

                                    7 of 24
<PAGE>

from outside the Leased Premises, without first obtaining the written consent
and approval of Lessor; however, said approval by Lessor does not constitute
certification that Lessee alterations, additions, and improvements are in
compliance with applicable laws, including, but not limited to, the Americans
with Disabilities Act ("ADA),. Any and all such alterations, physical additions
or improvements, when made to the Leased Premises by Lessee, shall at once
become the property of Lessor and shall be surrendered to Lessor upon
termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise without payment or
compensation to Lessee; provided, however, this clause shall not apply to
movable equipment or furniture owned by Lessee; and, provided further, however,
that notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, upon termination hereof
Lessee shall promptly and in accordance with then applicable laws, regulations
and reasonable requirements of Lessor, remove all of Lessee's freon or other
permitted hazardous material containing equipment from the Leased Premises.
Lessee agrees specifically that no food, soft drink or other vending machine
will be installed within the Leased Premises without Lessor's prior written
permission. Lessor may, at its option, at any time while this Lease is in force
or within fifteen (15) days thereafter, notify Lessee in writing to restore the
Premises in any respect to the same condition that they were in at the beginning
of the Term of this Lease, whereupon Lessee shall be obligated to so restore the
Premises before the expiration of this Lease or within a reasonable time after
such notice is given, whichever is later.

LEGAL USE AND VIOLATIONS OF INSURANCE COVERAGE

          19. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor not to occupy or use, or
permit any portion of the Leased Premises to be occupied or used for any
business or purpose which is unlawful, disreputable or deemed to be
extra-hazardous on account of fire, or permit anything to be done which would in
any way increase the rate of fire or liability or any other insurance coverage
on said Building and/or its contents.

LAWS AND REGULATIONS; RULES OF THE BUILDING

          20. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor, for itself and its
servants, to comply with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations (state,
federal, municipal and other agencies or bodies having any jurisdiction thereof)
relating to the use, condition or occupancy of the Leased Premises. Lessee will
comply with the rules of the Building adopted and altered by Lessor from time to
time for the safety, care and cleanliness of the Leased Premises and the
Building and for preservation of good order therein, all of which will be sent
by Lessor to Lessee in writing and thereafter shall be carried out and observed
by Lessee.

LESSOR'S ACCESS

         21. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor to permit Lessor or its
agents or representatives to enter into and upon any part of the Leased Premises
at all reasonable hours to inspect the same, clean or make repairs, alterations
or additions thereto, and to permit Lessor to perform substantial renovation
work in and for the Building or the mechanical systems serving the Building
(which work may include, but not be limited to, the repair or replacement of the
Building's exterior facade, exterior plaza, parking (garage or area), exterior
window glass, elevators, electrical systems, air-conditioning and ventilating
systems, pumping system, common hallways or lobby), all as Lessor may deem
necessary or desirable, and Lessee shall not be entitled to any abatement or
reduction of rent by reason thereof or otherwise have any cause of action
against Lessor, and no eviction, actual or constructive, shall be deemed to
occur. Upon entry as provided in this Paragraph 21, Lessor shall not be liable
to Lessee in any manner whatsoever. Lessee hereby waives any claim or cause of
action against Lessor for damages by reason of loss or interruption of Lessee's
business and profits therefrom because of the prosecution of any such work or
any part thereof, provided, however, that all such work will be performed in
such a manner as to interfere as little as practicable with Lessee's use of the
Premises.

NUISANCE

         22. Lessee covenants and agrees with Lessor to conduct its business and
control its agents, employees, invitees and visitors in such manner as not to
create any nuisance, or interfere with, annoy or disturb any other tenant or
Lessor in its operation of the Building.

                                    8 of 24
<PAGE>

CONDEMNATION AND LOSS OR DAMAGE

         23. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that if the Leased
Premises shall be taken or condemned for any public purpose, or sold under
threat of such exercise to the agency or instrumentality possessing such power,
to such an extent as to render the Leased Premises untenantable, this Lease
shall, at the option of either party, forthwith cease and terminate. Lessee
shall have no rights or claims to any part of any award made to or received by
Lessor for such taking or to any part of the purchase price, if so sold under
threat of exercise of the power of eminent domain, or against Lessor for the
value of any unexpired term of this Lease.

DAMAGES FROM CERTAIN CAUSES

         24. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that Lessor shall not
be liable or responsible to Lessee for any loss or damage to any property or
person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God, public enemy, injunction, riot,
vandalism, strike, insurrection, war, court order, requisition or order of
governmental body or authority, or for any damage or inconvenience which may
arise through repair or alteration of any part of the Building, or failure to
make any such repairs.

LESSOR'S LIEN

         25. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that in consideration
of the mutual benefits arising under this Lease, Lessee hereby grants to Lessor
a lien and security interest on all property of Lessee now or hereafter placed
in or upon the Leased Premises, and such property shall be and remain subject to
such lien and security interest of Lessor for payment of all rent and other sums
agreed to be paid by Lessee herein. The provisions of this Paragraph 25 relating
to said lien and security interest shall constitute a security agreement under
the Uniform Commercial Code (the "Code") so that Lessor shall have and may
enforce a security interest on all property of Lessee now or hereafter placed in
or on the Leased Premises, including but not limited to all fixtures, machinery,
equipment, furnishings and other articles of personal property now or hereafter
placed in or upon the Leased Premises by Lessee. Lessee agrees to execute as
debtor such financing statement or statements as Lessor may now or hereafter
reasonably request in order that such security interest or interests may be
protected pursuant to said Code. Lessor may at its election at any time file a
copy of this Lease as a financing statement. Lessor, as secured party, shall be
entitled to all of the rights and remedies afforded a secured party under said
Code in addition to and cumulative of the Lessor's liens and rights provided by
law or by the other terms and provisions of this Lease.

LESSOR'S RIGHT TO RELET

         26. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) by Lessee in any of
the terms or covenants of this Lease or in the event the Leased Premises are
abandoned by Lessee, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
relet same for the remainder of the Term provided for herein, and if the rent
received through reletting does not at least equal the rent provided for herein,
Lessee shall pay and satisfy the deficiency between the amount of rent so
provided for and that received through reletting, including, but not limited to,
brokerage and real estate commission or fees and the cost of renovating,
altering and decorating for a new occupant. Nothing herein shall be construed as
in any way denying Lessor the right, in the event of abandonment of said
Premises or other breach of this Lease by Lessee, to treat the same as an entire
breach and at Lessor's option to terminate this Lease and/or immediately seek
recovery for the entire breach of this Lease and any and all damages which
Lessor suffers thereby.

HOLDING OVER

         27. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that in the event of
holding over by Lessee after expiration or termination of this Lease without the
written consent of Lessor, Lessee shall pay as liquidated damages double rent
for the entire holdover period. No holding over by Lessee after the Term of this
Lease shall be construed to extend the Lease. In the event of any unauthorized
holding over, Lessee shall indemnify Lessor against all claims for damages by
any other lessee or tenant to whom Lessor may have leased all or any part of the
Premises covered hereby effective upon the termination of this Lease. Any
holding over with the consent of Lessor in writing shall thereafter designate
this Lease as a lease from month to month.

<PAGE>

ABATEMENT OF RENT

         28. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that in the event of
a fire in the Leased Premises, Lessee shall immediately give notice thereof to
Lessor. If the Leased Premises, through no fault or neglect of Lessee, its
agents, employees, invitees or visitors, shall be partially destroyed by fire or
other casualty so as to render the Premises untenantable, the rent provided for
herein shall abate thereafter until such time as the Leased Premises are made
tenantable as determined by Lessor in its sole and absolute discretion. In the
event of the total destruction of the Leased Premises, without fault or neglect
of Lessee, its agents, employees, invitees or visitors, or if from any cause the
same shall be so damaged that Lessor shall decide not to rebuild, then all rent
owed up to the time of such destruction or termination shall be paid by Lessee
and thenceforth this Lease shall cease and come to an end.

ATTORNEYS'FEES

        29. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that in the event
Lessee defaults in the performance of any of the terms, covenants, agreements or
conditions contained in this Lease and Lessor places the enforcement of this
Lease, or any part thereof, or the collection of any rent due, or to become due
hereunder or recovery of the possession of the Leased Premises in the hands of
an attorney, or files suit upon the same, Lessee agrees to pay Lessor's
reasonable attorneys' fees of not less than 10% of the amount due to Lessor.

ALTERATION OF LEASE

         30. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that this Lease may
not be altered, changed or amended, except by an instrument in writing signed by
both parties hereto.

ASSIGNMENT BY LESSOR

         31. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that Lessor shall
have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in part, all of its rights
and obligations hereunder and in the Building and property referred to herein,
and in such event and upon such transfer, any such transferee shall have the
benefit of, and be subject to, the provisions of Paragraphs 9 and 10 of this
Lease, and no further liability or obligation shall thereafter accrue against
Lessor hereunder.

LESSOR'S FAILURE TO PERFORM

         32. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that if Lessor fails
to perform any of its obligations under this Lease, Lessor shall not be in
default hereunder and Lessee shall not have any rights or remedies growing out
of such failure unless Lessee gives Lessor written notice thereof setting forth
in reasonable detail the nature and extent of such failure and such failure by
Lessor is not cured within the thirty (30) day period following delivery of such
notice or such longer period therefor provided elsewhere in this Lease. If such
failure cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, the
length of such period shall be extended for the period reasonably required
therefor if Lessor commences curing such failure within such thirty (30) day
period and continues the curing thereof with reasonable diligence and
continuity.

LESSEE'S FAILURE TO PERFORM

         33. Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree that if Lessee fails
to perform any one or more of its obligations hereunder, in addition to the
other rights of Lessor hereunder, Lessor shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to perform all or any part of such obligations of Lessee. Upon
receipt of a demand therefor from Lessor, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for (i)
the cost to Lessor of performing such obligations and a reasonable profit and
overhead, plus (ii) interest thereon at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum
(but in no event more than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law) from
the date of demand. If the obligation so performed by Lessor involves any repair
or maintenance or the removing by Lessor of any improvements to or use of the
Premises not authorized by this Lease, such reasonable profit and overhead shall
be twelve percent (12%) of the cost to Lessor of performing such obligation.

EVENT OF DEFAULT

         34. "Event of Default" means the occurrence of any one or more of the
following: (i) failure of Lessee to pay when due any rent or other amount
required to be paid under this Lease; (ii) failure of Lessee, after fifteen (15)
days written notice from Lessor of Lessee's default in the performance of any of
Lessee's obligations, covenants or agreements (other than those pertaining to
payment of rent) under this Lease, to do, observe, keep and perform with
diligence and continuity any of such obligations, covenants, or agreements;
(iii) the adjudication of Lessee to be bankrupt; (iv) the filing by Lessee of a
voluntary petition in bankruptcy, receivership, or other related or similar
proceedings; (v) the making by Lessee of a general assignment for the benefit of
its creditors; (vi) the appointment of a receiver of Lessee's interests in the
Premises in any action, suit or proceeding by or against Lessee's interest in
the Premises or by or against Lessee; (vii) any other voluntary or involuntary
proceedings instituted by or against Lessee under any bankruptcy or similar
laws, unless the occurrence of any such involuntary receivership or proceeding
is cured by the same being dismissed or stayed within sixty (60) days
thereafter; (viii) the failure of Lessee to discharge any material judgment
against Lessee within sixty (60) days after such judgment becomes final; (ix)
the sale or attempted sale under execution or other legal process of the
interest of Lessee in the Premises; (x) the death or incapacity or Lessee, if
Lessee is an individual or sole proprietorship; (xi) failure to continue in
occupancy or abandonment of the Premises for any period of time consisting of
thirty (30) or more consecutive days; or (xii) if Lessee assigns, mortgages or
encumbers this Lease or sulets the whole or any part of the Premises in
violation of the terms of this Lease. Notwithstanding the notice and cure period
provided above, Lessor shall not, with respect to any default hereunder, be
required to provide such notice and cure period more than two (2) times during
the Term, and upon a subsequent occurrence of any default hereunder Lessee shall
not be entitled to a notice and cure period, but Lessor may, at its option,
immediately declare an Event of Default and exercise its remedies as provided
herein.

         If an Event of Default occurs, then or at any time thereafter while
such Event of Default continues, Lessor, at its option, may, without waiving any
other rights available herein, at law or in equity, either terminate this Lease
or terminate Lessee's right to possession without terminating the Lease,
whichever Lessor elects. In either event, Lessor may, without additional notice
and without court proceedings, reenter and repossess the Premises, and remove
all persons and property therefrom using such force as may be necessary, and
Lessee hereby waives any claim arising by reason thereof or by reason of
issuance of any distress warrant and agrees to hold Lessor harmless from any
such claims. If Lessor elects to terminate this Lease, it may treat the Event of
Default as an entire breach of this Lease and Lessee immediately shall become
liable to Lessor for damages for the entire breach in an amount equal to the
total rent and all other payments due for the balance of the Term discounted at
the rate of six percent (6%) per annum to the then present value, plus the cost
of repossessing, remodeling and re-renting the Premises and, all unpaid rent
through the date of such termination. If Lessor elects to terminate Lessee's
right to possession of the Premises without terminating the Lease, Lessor may
rent the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Lessee to any person or
persons for such rental and for such terms and other conditions as Lessor deems
practical, and Lessee shall be liable to Lessor for the amount, if any, by which
the total rent and all other payments herein provided for the unexpired balance
of the Term exceed the net amount, if any, received by Lessor from such
re-renting, being the gross amount so received by Lessor less the cost of
repossession, re-renting, remodeling and other expenses relating thereto
including, but not limited to, brokerage and real estate commissions and fees.
Such sum or sums shall be immediately due and payable by Lessee upon demand. In
no case shall Lessor have any obligation to, or be liable for failure to,
re-rent the Premises or collect the rental due under such re-renting, and in no
event shall Lessee be entitled to any excess rents received by Lessor. If Lessor
elects to terminate Lessee's right to possession without terminating the Lease,
Lessor shall have the right at any time thereafter to terminate this Lease,
whereupon the foregoing provisions with respect to termination will thereafter
apply. If an Event of Default occurs or in case of any holding over or
possession by Lessee of the Premises after the expiration or termination of this
Lease, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor on demand for all costs incurred by Lessor
in connection therewith including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys'
fees, court costs and related costs associated with the collection of amounts
due plus interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such costs are paid
by Lessor up to the maximum amount permitted under applicable state law. Actions
by Lessor to collect amounts due from Lessee as provided in this Paragraph may
be brought at any time, and from time to time, on one or more occasions, without

                                    11 of 24
<PAGE>

the necessity of Lessor's waiting until the termination of this Lease. The
remedies expressed herein are cumulative and not exclusive, and the election by
Lessor to terminate Lessee's right to possession without terminating the Lease
shall not deprive Lessor of the right, and Lessor shall have the continuing
right, to terminate this Lease by notice to Lessee.

NON-WAIVER

      35. Failure of Lessor to declare any default immediately upon occurrence
thereof, or delay in taking any action in connection therewith, shall not waive
such default, but Lessor shall have the right to declare any such default at any
time and take such action as might be lawful or authorized hereunder, either in
law or in equity.

CASUALTY INSURANCE

      36. Lessor shall maintain property insurance on the Building, including
additions and improvements by Lessee which are required to be made by Lessee by
this Lease and which have become or are to become the property of the Lessor
upon vacation of the Leased Premises by Lessee. Said insurance shall be
maintained with an insurance company authorized to do business in the state
where the Building is located, in amounts desired by Lessor, and at the expense
of Lessor (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 5), and payments for losses
thereunder shall be made solely to Lessor. Lessee shall maintain property
insurance at its expense on all of its personal property, including removable
trade fixtures located in the Leased Premises and on all additions and
improvements made by Lessee and not required to be insured by Lessor above. The
property insurance required by this Paragraph 36 is insurance for all risks
(unless expressly excluded or limited) of direct physical loss against the
perils covered by so-called "all risks" coverages or its equivalent as approved
for use by the Department of Insurance or its successor in the state where the
Building is located. If the annual premiums to be paid by Lessor shall exceed
the standard rates because Lessee's operations, contents of the Leased Premises
or improvements with respect to the Leased Premises beyond building standard
result in any extra-hazardous exposure, Lessee shall promptly pay the excess
amount of the premium upon request by Lessor.

LIABILITY INSURANCE

      37. Lessee and Lessor shall at their respective expense, maintain a policy
or policies of commercial general liability insurance with the premiums thereon
fully paid on or before due date, issued by and binding upon an insurance
company acceptable to Lessor, such insurance to afford minimum protection of not
less than $1,000,000.00 in respect of personal injury or death in respect of any
one occurrence and of not less than $500,000.00 for property damage in any one
occurrence. Lessor shall be named an additional insured under the policy held or
obtained by Lessee.

INDEMNITY; HOLD HARMLESS

      38. Except for the claims, rights of recovery and causes of action waived
in Paragraph 39, Lessee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lessor and
Lessor's agents, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members,
employees, invitees, and contractors, from any and all claims, losses, costs,
damages, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) in connection with
any injury to, including death of, any person or damage to any property arising,
wholly or in part, out of any action, omission, or neglect of Lessee or Lessee's
directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees, agents,
invitees, or guests, or any parties contracting with Lessee relating to the
Premises. If Lessor shall without fault on its part, be made a party to any
action commenced by or against Lessee, the Lessee shall protect and hold Lessor
harmless and shall pay all costs and expenses, including (but not limited to)
reasonable attorneys' fees in connection therewith. Lessee's obligations under
this Paragraph 38 shall not be limited by the amount or types of insurance
maintained or required to be maintained by Lessee under this Lease. The
obligations under this Paragraph 38 shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease.

WAIVER OF CLAIMS/SUBROGATION RIGHTS

      39. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, each party
hereto releases and waives all claims, rights of recovery, and causes of action
that either such party or any party claiming by, through, or under such party by
subrogation or otherwise may now or hereafter have against the other party or
any of the other party's directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members,

                                    12 of 24
<PAGE>

employees, or agents for any loss or damage that may occur to the Building,
Premises, Lessee Improvements, or any of the contents of any of the foregoing by
reason of fire, Act of God, the elements, or any other cause, excluding willful
misconduct but including (without limitation) negligence of the parties hereto
or their directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees, or
agents that was required to be insured against under the terms of this Lease.
Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any inconvenience or loss to Lessee in
connection with any of the repair, maintenance, damage, destruction,
restoration, or replacement referred to in this Lease. Lessor shall not be
liable to Lessee and Lessee hereby waives all claims against Lessor and its
directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees, or agents for
any incidental or consequential damages, loss of profits, business interruption,
acts of other tenants, vandalism, loss of trade secrets or other confidential
information, and any damage, loss or injury caused by a defect in the Premises
or the Building, pipes, air conditioning, heating, plumbing or by water leakage
of any kind from the roof, walls, windows or other portion of the Premises or
the Building, or caused by electricity, gas, oil, fire or any other cause in,
on, or about the Premises, the Building or any part thereof, unless caused
solely by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor. The waivers in
this Paragraph 39 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease.

REMOVAL OF LESSEE'S PROPERTY

         40. Lessee shall retain ownership of all movable equipment, furniture,
and supplies placed in or on the Premises by Lessee and shall have the right to
remove such movable equipment, furniture, and supplies prior to termination of
this Lease provided that no Event of Default has been committed by Lessee which
has not been fully cured in a manner acceptable to Lessor and further provided
that Lessee repairs any injury to the Premises or the Building resulting from
such removal. Unless Lessee has made prior arrangements with Lessor and Lessor
has agreed in writing to permit Lessee to leave such equipment, furniture or
supplies on the Premises for an agreed period, if Lessee does not remove such
movable equipment, furniture and supplies prior to such termination, then, in
addition to its other remedies at law or in equity, Lessor shall have the right
to have such items removed and stored at Lessee's sole cost and expense and all
damage to the Premises or Building resulting therefrom repaired at the cost of
Lessee. All such movable equipment, furniture and supplies shall, at Lessor's
option, be deemed abandoned and become the property of the Lessor, and Lessee
shall not have any further right with respect thereto, or for reimbursement
therefor.

RELOCATION

         41. (a) Lessor reserves the right to relocate the Premises to
substantially comparable space within the Building. Lessor will give Lessee
written notice of its intention to relocate the Premises, and Lessee will
complete such relocation within sixty (60) days after receipt of such written
notice. If Lessee does relocate within the Building, then effective on the date
of such relocation this Lease will be amended by deleting the description of the
original Premises and substituting for it a description of such comparable
space. Lessor agrees to reimburse Lessee for its actual reasonable moving costs
to such other space within the Building, the reasonable costs of reprinting
stationery, and the costs of rewiring the new Premises for telephone and
computers comparably to the original Premises. If Lessee does not want to
relocate within the Building, Lessee may, at its option upon written notice to
Lessor within ten (10) days after receipt from Lessor of notice to relocate,
terminate this Lease, whereupon Lessor shall reimburse Lessee for actual and
reasonable out of pocket costs (but no other costs, consequential or otherwise)
directly related to Lessee's relocation out of the Building.

         (b) Lessor shall have the right at any time to change the arrangement
and/or location of entrance and passageways, doors and doorways, corridors,
elevators, stairs, toilets, parking facilities, or any other common facilities
in the Building or on the Premises, all without the same constituting an actual
or constructive eviction and without incurring any liability therefor; provided,
however, that such changes shall be made in a manner having no material adverse
affect on Lessee's access to the Premises.

BROKERAGE FEES

         42. Lessee warrants and represents that it has had no dealings with any
broker in connection with the negotiations or execution of this Lease and Lessor
will not be responsible for, and Lessee will indemnify, defend and hold Lessor
harmless against, any brokerage commission, leasing commission or finder's fee
claimed by any other party in connection with this Lease.

SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

         43. This Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
Lessor, its successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon and inure to the

beyond Lessor's control, including (but not limited to) labor disputes,
government regulations or controls, fire or casualty, inability to obtain any
materials or services, or acts of God.

SEVERABILITY

         45. If any term or provision of this Lease, or the application thereof

reenter, possess and repossess itself thereof, by force, summary proceedings,
ejectment, or otherwise, and may dispossess and remove Lessee and all persons
and property from the Premises; and Lessee waives any and all damages or claims
for damages as a result thereof, Such dispossession and removal of Lessee shall
not constitute a waiver by Lessor of any claims by Lessor against Lessee.

for the benefit of Lessee. Neither diminution nor shutting off of light or air

the Common Areas, if any, located within the Premises, and will hold Lessor
harmless therefrom. Should Lessee make any permitted alterations, additions or

improvements.

A. LESSEE IMPROVEMENTS

         1. (a) Lessor and Lessee agree that the Lessee Improvements described
in subparagraph (b) below (the "Lessee Improvements") shall be completed by
Lessee on or before October 1, 2002.

         (b) If plans and specifications (collectively the "Plans") for Lessee
Improvements are not attached hereto at the time of execution of this Lease,
Lessee shall provide such Plans to Lessor within thirty (30) days prior to the
date any such Lessee Improvements are to be commenced pursuant to this Lease.
Upon receipt of such Plans, Lessor shall have ten (10) days in which to either
approve such Plans or provide Lessee with Lessor's objections and comments. If
Lessor objects to such Plans, Lessee shall promptly make necessary changes and
provide Lessor with such revised Plans within twenty (20) business days after
receipt of Lessor's objections and comments. In the event Lessor and Lessee
approve the Plans, Lessee shall promptly undertake the construction of the
Lessee Improvements and diligently pursue to completion such Lessee
Improvements.

         (c) In the event the Plans for the Lessee Improvements have not been
completed and approved by both Lessor and Lessee by the close of business on
October 1, 2002, this Lease, at the option of either Lessor or Lessee by written
notice to the other, may be terminated and upon the delivery of such notice,
neither Lessor nor Lessee shall have any furth rights or obligations hereunder;
provided, however, any such termination notice must be receivJ by either Lessor
or Lessee by no later than November 1, 2002 in order to be effective.

         (d) The construction of the Lessee Improvements shall be in compliance
with all applicable laws including, but not limited to, building codes, zoning
regulations, compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and any other
federal, state or local laws (the "Applicable Laws") and shall be the sole
responsibility of Lessee. Incidental to Lessee's obligation to comply with the
terms and conditions set forth in this Exhibit D, Lessor and Lessee do hereby
agree as follows:

         (i)      Any changes or modifications Lessee desires to make to the
                  Plans shall be subject to Lessor's prior written approval;
         (ii)     Lessee agrees that its contractors will perform and provide
                  the work and materials to construct the Lessee Improvements in
                  accordance and compliance with all Applicable Laws; and
         (iii)    Upon completion of the Lessee Improvements and within five (5)
                  business days after demand by Lessor, Lessee shall deliver to
                  Lessor (x) final releases of liens from contractors performing
                  the work or providing the materials for the Lessee
                  Improvements and from any lienors giving written notice as
                  provided under Applicable Laws, (y) a final contractor's
                  affidavit from the general contractor in accordance with
                  Applicable Laws or customary practice, and (z) any supporting
                  documentation regarding final completion and payment of the
                  costs of the Lessee Improvements reasonably requested by
                  Lessor.

         2. Prior to commencement of any work on the Lessee Improvements, either
Lessee or its contractor shall obtain the following insurance, at Lessee's own
expense, with carriers admitted to do business in the state in which the
Premises are located and holding a Best's Rating of A-6 or better:

         (a)      Workers' Compensation and Employer's Liability Insurance -

Certificates of Insurance evidencing the above coverages shall be submitted to
and approved by Lessor prior to commencement of work on the Lessee Improvements.

         3. (a) Lessee shall keep the Premises and the Building free from any
liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations
incurred by or on behalf of Lessee. Should any claim of lien or other lien be
filed against the Premises or the Building by reason of any act or omission of
Lessee or any of Lessee's agents, employees, contractors or representatives,
then Lessee shall cause the same to be canceled and discharged of record by bond
or otherwise within thirty (30) days after the filing thereof. Should Lessee
fail to discharge such lien within such thirty (30) day period, then Lessor may
discharge the same, in which event Lessee shall reimburse Lessor, on demand, as
additional rent, for the amount of the lien or the amount of the bond, if
greater, plus all administrative costs incurred by Lessor and interest at the
maximum rate permitted by law in connection therewith. The remedies provided
herein shall be in addition to all other remedies available to Lessor under this
Lease or otherwise. Lessee shall have no power to do any act or make any
contract that may create or be the foundation of any lien, mortgage or other
encumbrance upon the reversionary or other estate of Lessor, or any interest of
Lessor in the Premises or the Building. NO CONSTRUCTION LIENS OR OTHER LIENS FOR
ANY LABOR, SERVICES OR MATERIALS FURNISHED TO THE PREMISES SHALL ATTACH TO OR
AFFECT THE INTEREST OF LESSOR IN AND TO THE PREMISES OR THE BUILDING.

         (b) Lessee and its contractor agree to defend, indemnify and hold
harmless Lessor from all loss, liability, claims and expense, including, but not
limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from property damage or bodily
injury, including, but not limited to, death to any person or persons, caused in
whole or in part by the negligence or misconduct of Lessee or its contractor or
their agents, employees or subcontractors, except to the extent that any of such
is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor. Lessee shall
provide to the Lessor the Lessee contractor's agreement to so defend, indemnify
and hold harmless the Lessor.

         4. Provided that Lessee has (a) completed the Lessee Improvements and
occupied the Premises, (b) complied with the terms and conditions set forth in
the Lease and the construction of Lessee Improvements is in accordance with the
Plans and in compliance with Applicable Laws, and (c) provided Lessor with (i) a
copy of all bills or invoices and lien waivers, with respect to all of the
Lessee Improvements, and (ii) a copy of a Certificate of Occupancy or other
appropriate document acceptable to Lessor, then, upon the occurrence of all of
such events, Lessor shall pay to Lessee an amount of up to but not in excess of
$10.00 per rentable square foot in the Premises (the "Lessee's Allowance").
However, in the event Lessee does not spend $10.00 per rentable square foot or
more on the Lessee Improvements, any of the Lessee's Allowance not used by
Lessee shall be forfeited and not payable by Lessor. All costs of the Lessee
Improvements in excess of $10.00 per rentable square foot shall be paid by
Lessee and Lessor shall have no liability with respect thereto. During
construction of the Lessee Improvements, Lessor, or its designated
representative, shall have the right to inspect construction of the Lessee
Improvements; and Lessee understands and agrees that any inspection by Lessor or
its designated representatives shall not impose upon Lessor any liability or
responsibility with respect to whether or not such Lessee Improvements have been
constructed in accordance with the Plans or Applicable Laws.

         5. Notwithstanding any provision in the Lease to the contrary, Lessor
and Lessee specifically agree that (i) Lessee, provided it has obtained the
insurance coverages set forth in paragraph 2. above, shall have access to the
Premises in order for Lessee or its contractor to commence the Lessee
Improvements, and (ii) Rent shall commence on October 1, 2002.

B. ELECTRICAL USAGE

        1. Lessor shall supply sufficient electrical capacity to the Premises
for lighting and Lessee's office equipment to the extent that the total demand
load at 100% capacity of said lighting and equipment does not exceed seven ( 7 )
watts per square foot of net rentable area during the Building Standard Hours

                                    21 of 24
<PAGE>

(collectively, the "Electrical Design Load"). There shall be no changes to
electrical systems (including, but not limited to, adding generators or similar
equipment) without prior written consent of Lessor, which consent may be
withheld in Lessor's sole and absolute discretion.

        2. If Lessee utilizes any portion of the Premises on a regular basis
outside of Building Standard Hours, Lessor shall have the right to separately
meter such space and charge Lessee for such excess usage. If the portion of the
Premises used outside of Building Standard Hours changes such that separate
metering is not practical, Lessor shall reasonably estimate such excess usage
and/or charge Lessee an hourly rate.

        3. Should Lessee's electrical load created by equipment such as (but not
limited to) computers, television sets, laser printers, copiers or other
electronic devices connected to the power system result in conditions which
cause any adverse effects in the Building, Lessee acknowledges that Lessee, at
Lessee's sole cost, shall be obligated to eliminate such conditions and to
repair any damage which results from such conditions within thirty (30) days of
Lessor's request. If Lessee fails to eliminate such conditions and repair such
damage caused thereby within such thirty (30) day period, Lessor, at its option,
may make such corrections deemed necessary by Lessor to eliminate such
conditions and make such repairs, and Lessee shall pay to Lessor on demand
Lessor's actual cost thereof plus twelve percent (12%) for administrative cost
recovery.

        4. Lessee shall cause Lessee's electrical system serving the Premises
and any of Lessee's equipment producing electrical loads to be designed to
accommodate such loads. If Lessee's electrical equipment and lighting require
electrical circuits, transformers or other additional equipment in excess of the
Electrical Design Load (the "Additional Electrical Equipment"), Lessee may, at
Lessee's cost, including the cost to design, install, maintain and replace the
Additional Electrical Equipment (including the meters), install the same,
provided such installation is compatible with existing Building systems, will
not compromise Lessor's ability to provide services to Lessee or other tenants
of the Building and will not be burdensome to Lessor, in Lessor's sole and
absolute discretion. and Lessee shall pay all operating costs related to that
requirement including, without limitation, the cost of electricity, water or
other services consumed through, or in connection with, the Additional
Electrical Equipment.

        5. The method of design and installation of any Additional Electrical
Equipment, including any related meter, required by Lessee shall be subject to
the prior written approval of Lessor, and shall be performed by Lessor at
Lessee's sole cost.

        6. Lessee shall pay to Lessor the cost of electricity consumed in excess
of the Electrical Design Load as determined by meter, or if not metered, as
otherwise reasonably estimated by Lessor (in its sole and absolute discretion),
plus any actual accounting expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with the
metering or calculation thereof. Lessor may cause a separate metering device to
be installed in the Premises to measure Lessee's electrical consumption. Lessee
shall pay the cost of installing, maintaining, repairing and replacing such
meters or devices. In no event shall Lessor be required to install or supply
emergency back up power unless specifically provided for in this Lease.

C. COMMUNICATION LINES

         1. The Lessee may install, maintain, replace, remove or use any
communications or computer wires, cables and related devices (whether or not
originally installed by Lessee, collectively, "Lines") at the Building in or
servicing the Premises, provided: (a) Lessee shall obtain Lessor's prior written
consent and use an experienced and qualified contractor approved in writing by
Lessor, (b) any such installation, maintenance, replacement, removal or use
shall comply with all laws, ordinances and regulations applicable thereto and
good work practices, and shall not interfere with any then existing Lines at the
Building, (c) an acceptable number of spare Lines and space for new Lines shall
be maintained for existing and future occupants of the Building, as determined
in Lessor's sole and absolute discretion, (d) if Lessee at any time uses any
equipment that may create an electromagnetic field exceeding the normal
insulation ratings of ordinary twisted pair riser cable or cause radiation
higher than normal background radiation, the Lines therefor, including riser
cables, shall be appropriately insulated to prevent such excessive
electromagnetic fields or radiation, (e) as a condition to permitting the
installation of new Lines, Lessor may require that Lessee remove existing Lines
located in or serving the Premises, (f) Lessee's rights shall be subject to the
rights of any regulated telephone company or other supplier, and (g) Lessee

                                    22 of 24
<PAGE>

shall pay all costs in connection therewith. Lessor reserves the right to
require that Lessee remove any Lines located in or serving the Premises which
are installed by or on behalf of Lessee in violation of these provisions, or
which are or become at any time in violation of any laws, ordinances or
regulations or represent a dangerous or potentially dangerous condition, within
fifteen (15) business days after written notice from Lessor.

        2. Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to: (i) install new Lines at
the Building, (ii) create additional space for Lines at the Building, and (iii)
reasonably direct, monitor and/or supervise the installation, maintenance,
replacement and removal of, the allocation and reallocation of available space,
if any, for, and the allocation of excess capacity, if any, on, any Lines now or
hereafter installed at the Building by Lessor, Lessee or any other party, but
Lessor shall have no right to monitor or control the information transmitted
through such Lines. If Lessor exercises any such rights, Lessor may charge
Lessee for the reasonable costs attributable to Lessee, or may include those
costs and all other associated costs in operating expenses.

        3. Any Lines not removed by Lessee shall become the property of Lessor
without payment by Lessor. If Lessor requests removal of the Lines and Lessee
fails to remove such Lines, Lessor may, after twenty (20) days' written notice
to Lessee, remove such Lines. Except to the extent arising from the intentional
or grossly negligent acts of Lessor or Lessor's agents or employees, Lessor
shall have no liability for damages arising from, and Lessor does not warrant
that Lessee's use of any Lines will be free from the following (collectively
called "Line Problems"): (i) any eavesdropping or wire-tapping by unauthorized
parties, (ii) any failure of any Lines to satisfy Lessee's requirements, or
(iii) any shortages, failures, variations, interruptions, disconnections, loss
or damage caused by the installation, maintenance, replacement, use or removal
of Lines by or for other tenants or occupants of the Building, by any failure of
the environmental conditions or the power supply for the Building to conform to
any requirements for the Lines or any associated equipment, or any other
problems associated with any Lines by any other cause. Under no circumstances
shall any Line Problems be deemed an actual or constructive eviction of Lessee,
render Lessor liable to Lessee for abatement of rent, or relieve Lessee from
performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease. Lessor in no event shall
be liable for damages by reason of loss of profits, business interruption or
other incidental or consequential damage arising from any Line Problems. Unless
Lessor requests that Lessee remove the Lines, the Lines shall remain in the
Building on termination of this Lease.

D. MARKET RENT

         If a situation arises under this Lease where the determination of the
"then market rates for the Building" (herein "Market Rent") becomes necessary,
Lessor and Lessee shall, for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice
from one party to the other that such a determination is needed ("Negotiation
Period"), attempt to negotiate the Market Rent. In the even that Lessor and
Lessee are unable to do so, Lessor and Lessee agree that Market Rent shall be
determined by binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the following
provisions:

                  (i) within ten (10) days after the end of the Negotiation
                  Period, Lessee shall give written notice to Lessor of Lessee's
                  appointment of a person as arbitrator on its behalf together
                  with Lessee's determination of Market Rent ("Lessee's Market
                  Rent"). Within the same ten (10) day period, Lessor by written
                  notice to Lessee, shall appoint a second person as arbitrator
                  on its behalf together with Lessor's determination of Market
                  Rent ("Lessor's Market Rent"). The arbitrators thus appointed
                  shall within ten (10) days after appointment of the first and
                  second arbitrators appoint a third person and the three (3)
                  arbitrators shall, within twenty (20) days, determine the
                  Market Rent only by (x) making their own independent
                  determination of the actual Market Rent for the Premises based
                  upon the above specified definition, standards and
                  requirements and thereafter (y) if the three (3) arbitrators
                  are unable to reach a consensus on the Market Rent, each will
                  submit his own separate determination and they shall take the
                  average of the two (2) closest arbitrators' Market Rent
                  figures and give notice of such averaged Market Rent to both
                  Lessor and Lessee, which amount shall be the Market Rent for
                  all purposes of this Paragraph 7. If either the Lessee's or
                  the Lessor's arbitrator shall not have been appointed within
                  the ten (10) day period set forth above, then the other party
                  shall have the sole right to designate the Market Rent, and if

                                    23 of 24
<PAGE>

                  the two (2) arbitrators as appointed by the parties shall be
                  unable to agree within ten (10) days after their appointment
                  upon the third arbitrator, they shall give written notice to
                  the parties of such failure to agree and if the parties fail
                  to agree upon the selection of such third arbitrator within
                  ten (10) days after the arbitrators appointed by the parties
                  gave notice as specified above, then within ten (10) days
                  thereafter, either of the parties upon notice to the other
                  party may request in writing such appointment by the American
                  Arbitration Association or any such successor organization, or
                  in its absence, refusal, failure or inability to act within
                  ten (10) days after the request to the American Arbitration
                  Association, may apply to a court with jurisdiction within the
                  state where the Building is located (the "Court") for a court
                  appointment of such third arbitrator.

                  (ii) Each arbitrator shall be a qualified and impartial person
                  who shall be a licensed real estate broker having substantial
                  commercial experience with respect to management, ownership,
                  leasing and marketing of office buildings in the Standard
                  Metropolitan Statistical Area within which the Building is
                  located. If any objection is made by one party as to the
                  qualifications of the arbitrator appointed by the other party,
                  or by the two arbitrators previously chosen, the running of
                  the schedule of events in subparagraph (i) of this Paragraph 7
                  shall be tolled and the Court shall decide on the basis of the
                  standards for qualifications set forth in the first sentence
                  of this subparagraph (ii), the issue of the qualification of
                  the arbitrator as to whom an objection has been made. If the
                  Court decides that the arbitrator is qualified, then the
                  schedule of events in subparagraph (i) of this Paragraph 7
                  shall begin running again starting at the time of the decision
                  by such Court. If the Court determines that the arbitrator is
                  unqualified, then the party who had selected such unqualified
                  arbitrator shall have ten (10) days from the time of such
                  decision to select another arbitrator and the schedule of
                  events in subparagraph (i) of this Paragraph 7 shall begin
                  running again at the time of such timely selection.

                  (iii) The decision and award of the arbitrator(s) shall be
                  final and conclusive on the parties and counterpart copies of
                  such decision shall be delivered to each of the parties. In
                  the event Lessee exercises its option, judgment may be had on
                  the decision and award of the arbitrator(s) so rendered in any
                  court of competent jurisdiction and to the extent that any
                  applicable state statute imposes requirements different than
                  those of the American Arbitration Association in order for the
                  decision of the arbitrator(s) to be enforceable in the courts
                  of the state where the Building is located, such requirements
                  shall be complied with in the arbitration.

                  (iv) The parties shall share equally and pay jointly the fees
                  and expenses relating to the arbitration (including, without
                  being limited to, the fees and expenses of counsel, experts
                  and witnesses, the fees paid to the arbitrators and the
                  expenses of the arbitration) whether or not either party in
                  fact uses the Market Rate pursuant to any applicable provision
                  of this Lease. This obligation of payment shall survive the
                  termination of this Lease.

E. POTENTIAL OPTION TO RENEW

         So long as Lessee is not in default under any of the terms and
conditions of this Lease, Lessee shall have the right to request to renew this
Lease for one (1) separate three (3) year period (immediately following the end
of the Term) upon written notice of the Lessee's intent to renew delivered to
the Lessor not less than fourteen (14) months prior to the end of the Term. The
terms and conditions for this renewal period shall remain the same as the terms
and conditions for the initial Term; however, the rent shall be the Market Rent
(as defined in paragraph D. above) at the time of renewal.

         The Lessor agrees to make a decision to accept or to reject the request
for renewal by the Lessee within sixty (60) calendar days following receipt of
Lessee's request. Upon Lessor's acceptance, if any, of Lessee's request for
renewal of this Lease, this paragraph and the other terms and conditions of this
Lease become effective at the end of the initial Term. In the event Lessor
either (i) does not respond to Lessee's request or (ii) rejects such request for
renewal, this Lease shall terminate at the end of the initial Term.
