                       INTRABIOTICS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

                        2000 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

               APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS JANUARY 25, 2000
                    APPROVED BY STOCKHOLDERS __________, 2000

1.       PURPOSE.

         (a) The purpose of this 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan")
is to provide a means by which employees of IntraBiotics Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
(the "Company") and its Affiliates, as defined in subparagraph 1(b), which are
designated as provided in subparagraph 2(b), may be given an opportunity to
purchase common stock of the Company (the "Common Stock").

         (b) The word "Affiliate" as used in the Plan means any parent
corporation or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined
in Sections 424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code").

         (c) The Company, by means of the Plan, seeks to retain the services of
its employees, to secure and retain the services of new employees, and to
provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of
the Company.

         (d) The Company intends that the rights to purchase stock of the
Company granted under the Plan be considered options issued under an "employee
stock purchase plan" as that term is defined in Section 423(b) of the Code.

2.       ADMINISTRATION.

         (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors (the
"Board") of the Company unless and until the Board delegates administration to a
Committee, as provided in subparagraph 2(c). Whether or not the Board has
delegated administration, the Board shall have the final power to determine all
questions of policy and expediency that may arise in the administration of the
Plan.

         (b) The Board shall have the power, subject to, and within the
limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:

                  (i) To determine when and how rights to purchase stock of the
Company shall be granted and the provisions of each offering of such rights
(which need not be identical).

                  (ii) To designate from time to time which Affiliates of the
Company shall be eligible to participate in the Plan.

                  (iii) To construe and interpret the Plan and rights granted
under it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its
administration. The Board, in the

                                       1.

<PAGE>

exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the
Plan, in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make
the Plan fully effective.

                  (iv) To amend the Plan as provided in paragraph 13.

                  (v) To terminate or suspend the Plan as provided in paragraph
15.

                  (vi) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such
acts as the Board deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of
the Company and its Affiliates and to carry out the intent that the Plan be
treated as an "employee stock purchase plan" within the meaning of Section 423
of the Code.

         (c) The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a Committee
composed of not fewer than two (2) members of the Board (the "Committee"). If
administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in
connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed
by the Board, subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the
provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The
Board may abolish the Committee at any time and revest in the Board the
administration of the Plan.

3.       SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.

         (a) Subject to the provisions of paragraph 12 relating to
adjustments upon changes in stock and subject to the increases in the number
of reserved shares described below, the stock that may be sold pursuant to
rights granted under the Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate five hundred
thousand (500,000) shares of Common Stock (the "Reserved Shares"). On
December 31 of each year starting with December 31, 2000, and continuing
through and including December 31, 2008,  the number of
Reserved Shares will be increased automatically by the lesser of (i)
one percent (1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding on such anniversary date, or (ii) such lesser amount as approved
by the Board.  If any right granted under the Plan shall for any reason
terminate without having been exercised, the Common Stock not purchased under
such right shall again become available for the Plan.

         (b) The stock subject to the Plan may be unissued shares or reacquired
shares, bought on the market or otherwise.

4.       GRANT OF RIGHTS; OFFERING.

         The Board or the Committee may from time to time grant or provide for
the grant of rights to purchase Common Stock of the Company under the Plan to
eligible employees (an "Offering") on a date or dates (the "Offering Date(s)")
selected by the Board or the Committee. Each Offering shall be in such form and
shall contain such terms and conditions as the Board or the Committee shall deem
appropriate, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 423(b)(5) of
the Code that all employees granted rights to purchase stock under the Plan
shall have the same rights and privileges. The terms and conditions of an
Offering shall be incorporated by reference into the Plan and treated as part of
the Plan. The provisions of separate

                                       2.

<PAGE>

Offerings need not be identical, but each Offering shall include (through
incorporation of the provisions of this Plan by reference in the document
comprising the Offering or otherwise) the period during which the Offering shall
be effective, which period shall not exceed twenty-seven (27) months beginning
with the Offering Date, and the substance of the provisions contained in
paragraphs 5 through 8, inclusive.

5.       ELIGIBILITY.

         (a) Rights may be granted only to employees of the Company or, as the
Board or the Committee may designate as provided in subparagraph 2(b), to
employees of any Affiliate of the Company. Except as provided in subparagraph
5(b), an employee of the Company or any Affiliate shall not be eligible to be
granted rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such employee has
been in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate for such continuous period
preceding such grant as the Board or the Committee may require, but in no event
shall the required period of continuous employment be greater than two (2)
years. In addition, unless otherwise determined by the Board or the Committee
and set forth in the terms of the applicable Offering, no employee of the
Company or any Affiliate shall be eligible to be granted rights under the Plan,
unless, on the Offering Date, such employee's customary employment with the
Company or such Affiliate is for at least twenty (20) hours per week and at
least five (5) months per calendar year.

         (b) The Board or the Committee may provide that each person who, during
the course of an Offering, first becomes an eligible employee of the Company or
designated Affiliate will, on a date or dates specified in the Offering which
coincides with the day on which such person becomes an eligible employee or
occurs thereafter, receive a right under that Offering, which right shall
thereafter be deemed to be a part of that Offering. Such right shall have the
same characteristics as any rights originally granted under that Offering, as
described herein, except that:

                  (i) the date on which such right is granted shall be the
"Offering Date" of such right for all purposes, including determination of the
exercise price of such right;

                  (ii) the period of the Offering with respect to such right
shall begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the end of such
Offering; and

                  (iii) the Board or the Committee may provide that if such
person first becomes an eligible employee within a specified period of time
before the end of the Offering, he or she will not receive any right under that
Offering.

         (c) No employee shall be eligible for the grant of any rights under the
Plan if, immediately after any such rights are granted, such employee owns stock
possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value
of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Affiliate. For purposes of this
subparagraph 5(c), the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in
determining the stock ownership of any employee, and stock which such employee
may purchase under all outstanding rights and options shall be treated as stock
owned by such employee.

                                       3.

<PAGE>

         (d) An eligible employee may be granted rights under the Plan only if
such rights, together with any other rights granted under "employee stock
purchase plans" of the Company and any Affiliates, as specified by Section
423(b)(8) of the Code, do not permit such employee's rights to purchase stock of
the Company or any Affiliate to accrue at a rate which exceeds twenty-five
thousand dollars ($25,000) of fair market value of such stock (determined at the
time such rights are granted) for each calendar year in which such rights are
outstanding at any time.

         (e) Officers of the Company and any designated Affiliate shall be
eligible to participate in Offerings under the Plan; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Board may provide in an Offering that certain employees who are highly
compensated employees within the meaning of Section 423(b)(4)(D) of the Code
shall not be eligible to participate.

6.       RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE.

         (a) On each Offering Date, each eligible employee, pursuant to an
Offering made under the Plan, shall be granted the right to purchase up to the
number of shares of Common Stock of the Company purchasable with a percentage
designated by the Board or the Committee not exceeding fifteen percent (15%) of
such employee's Earnings (as defined in subparagraph 7(a)) during the period
which begins on the Offering Date (or such later date as the Board or the
Committee determines for a particular Offering) and ends on the date stated in
the Offering, which date shall be no later than the end of the Offering. The
Board or the Committee shall establish one or more dates during an Offering (the
"Purchase Date(s)") on which rights granted under the Plan shall be exercised
and purchases of Common Stock carried out in accordance with such Offering.

         (b) In connection with each Offering made under the Plan, the Board or
the Committee may specify a maximum number of shares that may be purchased by
any employee as well as a maximum aggregate number of shares that may be
purchased by all eligible employees pursuant to such Offering. In addition, in
connection with each Offering that contains more than one Purchase Date, the
Board or the Committee may specify a maximum aggregate number of shares which
may be purchased by all eligible employees on any given Purchase Date under the
Offering. If the aggregate purchase of shares upon exercise of rights granted
under the Offering would exceed any such maximum aggregate number, the Board or
the Committee shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares available in as
nearly a uniform manner as shall be practicable and as it shall deem to be
equitable.

         (c) The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to rights granted
under the Plan shall be not less than the lesser of:

                  (i) an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair
market value of the stock on the Offering Date; or

                  (ii) an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair
market value of the stock on the Purchase Date.

                                       4.

7.       PARTICIPATION; WITHDRAWAL; TERMINATION.

         (a) An eligible employee may become a participant in the Plan pursuant
to an Offering by delivering a participation agreement to the Company within the
time specified in the Offering, in such form as the Company provides. Each such
agreement shall authorize payroll deductions of up to the maximum percentage
specified by the Board or the Committee of such employee's Earnings during the
Offering. "Earnings" is defined as an employee's wages (including amounts
thereof elected to be deferred by the employee, that would otherwise have been
paid, under any arrangement established by the Company that is intended to
comply with Section 125, Section 401(k), Section 402(h) or Section 403(b) of the
Code or that provides non-qualified deferred compensation), which shall include
overtime pay, bonuses, incentive pay, and commissions, but shall exclude profit
sharing or other remuneration paid directly to the employee, the cost of
employee benefits paid for by the Company or an Affiliate, education or tuition
reimbursements, imputed income arising under any group insurance or benefit
program, traveling expenses, business and moving expense reimbursements, income
received in connection with stock options, contributions made by the Company or
an Affiliate under any employee benefit plan, and similar items of compensation,
as determined by the Board or the Committee. The payroll deductions made for
each participant shall be credited to an account for such participant under the
Plan and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company. A participant
may reduce (including to zero) or increase such payroll deductions, and an
eligible employee may begin such payroll deductions, after the beginning of any
Offering only as provided for in the Offering. A participant may make additional
payments into his or her account only if specifically provided for in the
Offering and only if the participant has not had the maximum amount withheld
during the Offering.

         (b) At any time during an Offering, a participant may terminate his or
her payroll deductions under the Plan and withdraw from the Offering by
delivering to the Company a notice of withdrawal in such form as the Company
provides. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of the
Offering except as provided by the Board or the Committee in the Offering. Upon
such withdrawal from the Offering by a participant, the Company shall distribute
to such participant all of his or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to
the extent, if any, such deductions have been used to acquire stock for the
participant) under the Offering, without interest, and such participant's
interest in that Offering shall be automatically terminated. A participant's
withdrawal from an Offering will have no effect upon such participant's
eligibility to participate in any other Offerings under the Plan but such
participant will be required to deliver a new participation agreement in order
to participate in subsequent Offerings under the Plan.

         (c) Rights granted pursuant to any Offering under the Plan shall
terminate immediately upon cessation of any participating employee's employment
with the Company and any designated Affiliate, for any reason, and the Company
shall distribute to such terminated employee all of his or her accumulated
payroll deductions (reduced to the extent, if any, such deductions have been
used to acquire stock for the terminated employee), under the Offering, without
interest.

                                       5.

<PAGE>

         (d) Rights granted under the Plan shall not be transferable by a
participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or
by a beneficiary designation as provided in paragraph 14 and, otherwise during
his or her lifetime, shall be exercisable only by the person to whom such rights
are granted.

8.       EXERCISE.

         (a) On each Purchase Date specified therefor in the relevant Offering,
each participant's accumulated payroll deductions and other additional payments
specifically provided for in the Offering (without any increase for interest)
will be applied to the purchase of whole shares of stock of the Company, up to
the maximum number of shares permitted pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the
applicable Offering, at the purchase price specified in the Offering. No
fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of rights granted under the
Plan. The amount, if any, of accumulated payroll deductions remaining in each
participant's account after the purchase of shares which is less than the amount
required to purchase one share of stock on the final Purchase Date of an
Offering shall be held in each such participant's account for the purchase of
shares under the next Offering under the Plan, unless such participant withdraws
from such next Offering, as provided in subparagraph 7(b), or is no longer
eligible to be granted rights under the Plan, as provided in paragraph 5, in
which case such amount shall be distributed to the participant after such final
Purchase Date, without interest. The amount, if any, of accumulated payroll
deductions remaining in any participant's account after the purchase of shares
which is equal to the amount required to purchase whole shares of stock on the
final Purchase Date of an Offering shall be distributed in full to the
participant after such Purchase Date, without interest.

         (b) No rights granted under the Plan may be exercised to any extent
unless the shares to be issued upon such exercise under the Plan (including
rights granted thereunder) are covered by an effective registration statement
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and
the Plan is in material compliance with all applicable state, foreign and other
securities and other laws applicable to the Plan. If on a Purchase Date in any
Offering hereunder the Plan is not so registered or in such compliance, no
rights granted under the Plan or any Offering shall be exercised on such
Purchase Date, and the Purchase Date shall be delayed until the Plan is subject
to such an effective registration statement and such compliance, except that the
Purchase Date shall not be delayed more than twelve (12) months and the Purchase
Date shall in no event be more than twenty-seven (27) months from the Offering
Date. If on the Purchase Date of any Offering hereunder, as delayed to the
maximum extent permissible, the Plan is not registered and in such compliance,
no rights granted under the Plan or any Offering shall be exercised and all
payroll deductions accumulated during the Offering (reduced to the extent, if
any, such deductions have been used to acquire stock) shall be distributed to
the participants, without interest.

9.       COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

         (a) During the terms of the rights granted under the Plan, the Company
shall keep available at all times the number of shares of stock required to
satisfy such rights.

                                       6.

<PAGE>

         (b) The Company shall seek to obtain from each federal, state, foreign
or other regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such
authority as may be required to issue and sell shares of stock upon exercise of
the rights granted under the Plan. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is
unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or agency the authority
which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale
of stock under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for
failure to issue and sell stock upon exercise of such rights unless and until
such authority is obtained.

10.      USE OF PROCEEDS FROM STOCK.

         Proceeds from the sale of stock pursuant to rights granted under the
Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.

11.      RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER.

         A participant shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any
of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares subject to rights granted
under the Plan unless and until the participant's shareholdings acquired upon
exercise of rights under the Plan are recorded in the books of the Company.

12.      ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK.

         (a) If any change is made in the stock subject to the Plan, or subject
to any rights granted under the Plan, due to a change in corporate
capitalization and without the receipt of consideration by the Company (through
reincorporation, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination
or reclassification of shares), the Plan will be appropriately adjusted in the
class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Plan pursuant to
subsection 3(a), and the outstanding rights will be appropriately adjusted in
the class(es) and number of securities and price per share of stock subject to
such outstanding rights. Such adjustments shall be made by the Board, the
determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive.

         (b) In the event of: (1) a dissolution, liquidation or sale of all or
substantially all of the securities or assets of the Company, (2) a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or (3) a
reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by
virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities,
cash or otherwise, then any surviving corporation may assume outstanding rights
or substitute similar rights for those under the Plans. In the event that no
surviving corporation assumes outstanding rights or substitutes similar rights
therefor, participants' accumulated payroll deductions shall be used to purchase
Common Stock immediately prior to the transaction described above and the
participants' rights under the ongoing Offering shall terminate immediately
following such purchase.

                                       7.

13.      AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN.

         (a) The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the Plan.
However, except as provided in paragraph 12 relating to adjustments upon changes
in stock, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the stockholders of
the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the adoption of the
amendment, where the amendment will:

                  (i) Increase the number of shares reserved for rights under
the Plan;

                  (ii) Modify the provisions as to eligibility for participation
in the Plan (to the extent such modification requires stockholder approval in
order for the Plan to obtain employee stock purchase plan treatment under
Section 423 of the Code or to comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Rule
16b-3")); or

                  (iii) Modify the Plan in any other way if such modification
requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to obtain employee stock
purchase plan treatment under Section 423 of the Code or to comply with the
requirements of Rule 16b-3.

It is expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan in any respect
the Board deems necessary or advisable to provide eligible employees with the
maximum benefits provided or to be provided under the provisions of the Code and
the regulations promulgated thereunder relating to employee stock purchase plans
and/or to bring the Plan and/or rights granted under it into compliance
therewith.

         (b) Rights and obligations under any rights granted before amendment of
the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan, except with the
consent of the person to whom such rights were granted, or except as necessary
to comply with any laws or governmental regulations, or except as necessary to
ensure that the Plan and/or rights granted under the Plan comply with the
requirements of Section 423 of the Code.

14.      DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.

         (a) A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who
is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant's account under
the Plan in the event of such participant's death subsequent to the end of an
Offering but prior to delivery to the participant of such shares and cash. In
addition, a participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is
to receive any cash from the participant's account under the Plan in the event
of such participant's death during an Offering.

         (b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the participant
at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of a participant and in
the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at
the time of such participant's death, the Company shall deliver such shares
and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the participant,
or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of
the Company), the Company, in its sole discretion, may deliver such shares
and/or cash to the

                                       8.

<PAGE>

spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the participant, or if
no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other
person as the Company may designate.

15.      TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

         (a) The Board in its discretion, may suspend or terminate the Plan at
any time. No rights may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or
after it is terminated.

         (b) Rights and obligations under any rights granted while the Plan is
in effect shall not be altered or impaired by suspension or termination of the
Plan, except as expressly provided in the Plan or with the consent of the person
to whom such rights were granted, or except as necessary to comply with any laws
or governmental regulation, or except as necessary to ensure that the Plan
and/or rights granted under the Plan comply with the requirements of Section 423
of the Code.

         (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan shall terminate and no
rights may be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the
Effective Date.

16.      EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

         The Plan shall become effective simultaneously with the effectiveness
of the Company's registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to
the initial public offering of shares of the Company's Common Stock (the
"Effective Date"), but no rights granted under the Plan shall be exercised
unless and until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company
within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted by the
Board, which date may be prior to the Effective Date.

                                       9.

                   2000 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN OFFERING

                            ADOPTED JANUARY 25, 2000

1.       GRANT; OFFERING DATE.

         (a) The Board of Directors of IntraBiotics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the
"Company"), pursuant to the Company's 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
"Plan"), hereby authorizes the grant of rights to purchase shares of the common
stock of the Company ("Common Stock") to all Eligible Employees (an "Offering").
The first Offering shall begin simultaneously with the effectiveness of the
Company's registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect
to the initial public offering of the Company's Common Stock and end on June 30,
2002 (the "Initial Offering"). Offerings shall begin on the next following July
1 and thereafter every other year on July 1 and each such Offering shall end on
the day prior to the second anniversary of its Offering Date. For example, the
second Offering under the Plan shall begin on July 1, 2002 and end on June 30,
2004. The first day of an Offering is that Offering's "Offering Date." If an
Offering Date falls on a day during which the Common Stock is not actively
traded, then the Offering Date shall be the next succeeding day during which the
Common Stock is actively traded.

         (b) Prior to the commencement of any Offering, the Board of Directors
(or the Committee described in subparagraph 2(c) of the Plan, if any) may change
any or all terms of such Offering and any subsequent Offerings. The granting of
rights pursuant to each Offering hereunder shall occur on each respective
Offering Date unless, prior to such date (a) the Board of Directors (or such
Committee) determines that such Offering shall not occur, or (b) no shares
remain available for issuance under the Plan in connection with the Offering.

         (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that the
fair market value of a share of Common Stock on any Purchase Date during an
Offering is less than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the
Offering Date of such Offering, then following the purchase of Common Stock on
such Purchase Date: (i) the Offering shall terminate and (ii) all participants
in the just-terminated Offering shall automatically be enrolled in a new
Offering that shall commence on the day following the Purchase Date on the same
terms on which such participants were enrolled in the terminated Offering. Such
new Offering shall end on the day prior to the second anniversary of its
Offering Date.

2.       ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES.

         All employees of the Company and each of its Affiliates (as defined in
the Plan) incorporated in the United States shall be granted rights to purchase
Common Stock under each Offering on the Offering Date of such Offering, provided
that each such employee otherwise meets the employment requirements of
subparagraph 5(a) of the Plan (an "Eligible Employee"). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the following employees shall not be Eligible Employees or be granted
rights under an Offering: (i) part-time or seasonal employees whose customary
employment is less than twenty (20) hours per week or less than five (5) months
per calendar

                                       1.

<PAGE>

year, and (ii) 5% stockholders (including ownership through unexercised options)
described in subparagraph 5(c) of the Plan shall not be eligible to participate.

         Each person who first becomes an Eligible Employee during any Offering
shall be granted a right to purchase Common Stock under such Offering on the
next January 1 or July 1 during such Offering, which right shall thereafter be
deemed to be a part of such Offering. Such right shall have the same
characteristics as any rights originally granted under the Offering except that:

         (a) the date on which such right is granted shall be the "Offering
Date" of such right for all purposes, including determination of the exercise
price of such right; and

         (b) the Offering for such right shall begin on its Offering Date and
end coincident with the ongoing Offering.

3.       RIGHTS.

         (a) Subject to the limitations contained herein and in the Plan, on
each Offering Date each Eligible Employee shall be granted the right to purchase
the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable with up to fifteen percent
(15%) of such Participant's Earnings (as defined in the Plan) paid during the
period of such Offering.

         (b) The maximum number of shares that may be purchased by an eligible
employee on a Purchase Date shall not exceed five thousand (5,000) shares.
The maximum aggregate number of shares available to be purchased by all Eligible
Employees under an Offering shall be the number of shares remaining available
under the Plan on the Offering Date. If the aggregate purchase of shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of rights granted under the Offering would exceed the
maximum aggregate number of shares available, the Board shall make a pro rata
allocation of the shares available in a uniform and equitable manner.

         (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no employee shall be granted an
option under the Plan which permits such employee's right to purchase stock
under this Plan and all other employee stock purchase plans (described in
Section 423 of the Code) of the Company to accrue at a rate which exceeds twenty
five thousand dollars ($25,000) of fair market value of such stock (determined
at the time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option
is outstanding at any time.

4.       PURCHASE PRICE.

         The purchase price of the Common Stock under the Offering shall be the
lesser of (a) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of the Common
Stock on the Offering Date (or eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market
value of the Common Stock on the first day on which the Company's Common Stock
is actively traded that immediately follows the Offering Date if an Offering
Date falls on a day during which the Company's Common Stock is not actively
traded) or (b) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of the Common
Stock on the Purchase Date (or eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market
value of the Common Stock on the first day on which the Company's Common Stock

immediately precedes the Purchase Date if a Purchase Date falls on a day during
which the Company's Common Stock is not actively traded).

5.       PARTICIPATION.

         (a) Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Plan, an Eligible
Employee may elect to begin payroll deductions under an Offering as of the
beginning of the Offering or as of the day after any Purchase Date (i.e., any
January 1 or July 1 other than July 1, 2000). Such an election shall be made by
delivering an agreement authorizing payroll deductions. Such deductions shall be
made each pay period and must be in whole percentages not to exceed fifteen
percent (15%) of Earnings. The agreement shall be made on such enrollment form
as the Company or a designated Affiliate provides and must be delivered to the
Company or designated Affiliate before the Offering Date to be effective for
such Offering, unless a later time for filing the enrollment form is set by the
Company for all Eligible Employees with respect to a given Offering Date. As to
the Initial Offering, the time for filing an enrollment form and commencing
participation for individuals who are Eligible Employees on the Offering Date
for the Initial Offering shall be determined by the Company and communicated to
such Eligible Employees. A participant may not make additional contributions
under the Plan.

         (b) A participant may increase or reduce (including to zero) his or her
participation level as of any January 1 or July 1 during an Offering. Any such
change in participation shall be made by delivering a notice to the Company or a
designated Affiliate in such form and at such time as the Company provides. In
addition, a participant may withdraw from an Offering and receive his or her
accumulated payroll deductions from the Offering (reduced to the extent, if any,
such deductions have been used to acquire Common Stock for the Participant on
any prior Purchase Dates), without interest, at any time prior to the end of the
Offering, excluding the fifteen (15) day period immediately preceding the
Purchase Date, by delivering a withdrawal notice to the Company or designated
Affiliate in such form as the Company of designated Affiliate provides. A
participant who has withdrawn from an Offering shall not again participate in
such Offering but may participate in subsequent Offerings under the Plan by
submitting a new participation agreement in accordance with the terms thereof.

6.       PURCHASES.

         Subject to the limitations contained herein, on each Purchase Date,
each participant's accumulated payroll deductions (without any increase for
interest) shall be applied to the purchase of whole shares of Common Stock, up
to the maximum number of shares permitted under the Plan and the Offering.
"Purchase Date" shall be defined as December 31, 2000, and each June 30 and
December 31 thereafter. If a Purchase Date falls on a day during which the
Common Stock is not actively traded then the Purchase Date shall be the nearest
prior day on which the Common Stock is actively traded.

7.       NOTICES.

         Any notices or agreements provided for in the Offering or the Plan
shall be given in writing, in a form provided by the Company, and unless
specifically provided for in the Plan or this Offering shall be deemed
effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices and

Plan by the stockholders of the Company as required for the Plan to obtain
employee stock purchase plan treatment under Section 423 of the Code or to
comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

9.       OFFERING SUBJECT TO PLAN.

         Each Offering is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, and its
provisions are hereby made a part of the Offering, and is further subject to all
interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time
be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict
between the provisions of an Offering and those of the Plan (including

be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan), the provisions of the Plan
shall control.

comprising the Leased Premises is as specified in Article 1 hereof and that such
area shall not be reduced irrespectively of any subsequent recalculation of the
area comprising the Leased Premises.

     2.2    RIGHT TO USE OUTSIDE AREAS. As an appurtenant right to Tenant's
right to use and occupancy of the Leased Premises, Tenant shall have the right
to use the Outside Areas in conjunction with its use of the Leased Premises
solely for the purposes for which they were designated and intended and for no
other purposes whatsoever. Tenant's right to so use the Outside Areas shall be
subject to the limitations on such use as set forth in Article 1 and shall
terminate concurrently with any termination of this Lease.

     2.3    LEASE COMMENCEMENT DATE AND LEASE TERM. The term of this Lease shall
begin on the Commencement Date, as set forth in Article 1 (the "Lease
Commencement Date"). The term of this Lease shall in all events end on the Lease
Expiration Date (as set forth in Article 1). The Lease Term shall be that period
of time commencing on the Lease Commencement Date and ending on the Lease
Expiration Date (the "Lease Term").

     2.4    DELIVERY OF POSSESSION. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant possession
of the Leased Premises at such time as the improvement Work (as defined in
Paragraph 2.5 below) is substantially completed pursuant to the Work Letter,
provided that Tenant shall have the right to occupy the office portion only upon
completion of those improvements, but Tenant shall not in any way occupy the lab
area until its completion. If Landlord is unable to so deliver possession of the
Leased Premises to Tenant in the agreed condition on or before the Commencement
Date, Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease, nor shall this Lease be
void, voidable or cancelable by Tenant until the lapse of one hundred twenty
(120) days after the Commencement Date (the "delivery grace period"). The
delivery grace period above set forth shall be extended for such number of days
as Landlord may be delayed in delivery possession of the Leased Premises to
Tenant by reason of FORCE MAJEURE (as defined in Section 13.9 hereof) or the
action or inaction of Tenant. If Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the
Leased Premises in the agreed condition to Tenant within the described delivery
grace period (including any extension thereof by reason of FORCE MAJEURE or the
actions or inactions of Tenant), then Tenant's sole remedy shall be to terminate
this Lease, and in no event shall Landlord be liable in damages to Tenant for
such delay. Tenant may not terminate this Lease at any time after the date
Landlord notifies Tenant that the Leased Premises have been put into the agreed
condition and re available for delivery to Tenant, unless Landlord's notice is
not given in good faith. If Landlord has not substantially completed the
Improvement Work and delivered possession of the Premises to Tenant prior to the
expiration of ninety (90) days from the Commencement Date (including any
extension thereof by reason of FORCE MAJEURE or the actions or inactions of
Tenant), then in addition to Tenant's right to terminate this Lease upon
expiration of the delivery grace period, as set forth hereinabove, Tenant shall
be entitled to one free day of Base Rent for each day past such date that the
Premises are so delivered to Tenant; unless tenant has terminated this Lease
upon expiration of the delivery grace period.

     2.5    PERFORMANCE OF IMPROVEMENT WORK; ACCEPTANCE OF POSSESSION. Landlord
shall, pursuant to the work letter attached to and made a part of this Lease as
EXHIBIT "B" (the "Work Letter"), perform the work and make the installations in
the Leased Premises substantially as set forth in the Work Letter (such work and
installations hereinafter referred to as the "Improvement Work"). All
Improvement Work shall be constructed in accordance with all applicable
government laws, rules, regulations and codes. Without limiting the foregoing,
Landlord agrees to deliver in good working order the roof surface (which shall
be replaced by Landlord) and all existing plumbing, lighting, heating,
ventilating and air conditioning systems

with the plans and specifications approved pursuant to the Work Letter, (ii)
install new landscaping at the front of and at the eastern side of the Building,

the Building. If any dispute arises as to whether the Leased Premises are
substantially completed and ready for Tenant's occupancy, a certificate
furnished by the Construction manager (as defined in the Work Letter) certifying
the date of substantial completion shall be conclusive of that fact and date and
binding upon Landlord and Tenant. It is agreed that by occupying the Leased
Premises, Tenant formally accepts same and acknowledges that the Leased Premises
are in the condition called for hereunder, subject to normal punchlist items
specified by Tenant to Landlord in writing within thirty (30) days of such
occupancy and subject to the limited warranty of Landlord set forth in the Work
Letter. Tenant shall have the right to retain, at Tenant's sole cost, and
independent inspector, subject to Landlord's approval which will not be
unreasonably withheld, for purposes of preparation of the punchlist.

     2.6    SURRENDER OF POSSESSION. Immediately prior to the expiration or upon
the sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove all of Tenant's signs
from the exterior of the Building and shall remove all of Tenant's equipment,
trade fixtures, furniture, supplies, wall decorations and other person property
from within the Leased Premises, the Building and the Outside Areas, and shall
vacate and surrender the Leased Premises, the Building, the Outside Areas and
the Property to Landlord in the same condition, broom clean, as existed at the
Lease Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall repair
all damage to the Leased Premises, the exterior of the Building and the Outside
Areas caused by Tenant's removal of Tenant's property. Tenant shall patch and
refinish, to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction, all penetrations made by Tenant
or its employees to the floor, walls or ceiling of the Leased Premises, whether

or replace all stained or damaged ceiling tiles, wall coverings and floor
coverings to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord. Tenant shall repair all
damage caused by Tenant to the exterior surface of the Building and the paved

Tenant shall not be required to remove the initial Improvement Work to the
extent such Improvement Work relates to non-specialized improvements or
alterations installed on Tenant's behalf, such improvements shall remain on the
Leased Premises upon expiration or prior termination of this Lease unless
Landlord elects to require that Tenant at its sole cost remove such
improvements, in which event Tenant shall remove such improvements and shall
repair all damage caused by such removal. Landlord agrees upon specific written
request by Tenant at the time Tenant shall submit its final improvement drawings
for approval by Landlord to notify Tenant in writing which such Improvement Work
Landlord will require Tenant to remove from the Premises upon expiration of the
Lease Term pursuant to the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
hereinabove, Tenant shall have the right to remove any trade fixtures and other
personal property belonging to Tenant that do not constitute permanently
installed fixtures, as well as the lab benches and items set forth in
Section 6.2 attached hereto. If the Leased Premises, the Building, the Outside
Areas and the Property are not surrendered to Landlord in the condition required
by this paragraph at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease,
Landlord may, at Tenant's expense, so remove Tenant's signs, property and/or
improvements not so removed and make such repairs and replacements not so made
or hire, at Tenant's expense, independent contractors to perform such work.
Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs incurred by Landlord in

                                       5.
<PAGE>

returning the Leased Premises, the Building and the Outside Areas to the
required condition, together with interest on all costs so incurred from the
date paid by landlord at the then maximum rate of interest not prohibited or
made usurious by law until paid. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of
all costs so incurred plus such interest thereon, within ten (10) days of
Landlord's billing Tenant for same. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against
loss or liability resulting from delay by Tenant in surrendering the Leased
Premises, including, without limitation, any actual claims made by any
succeeding Tenant or any losses to Landlord with respect to lost
opportunities to lease to succeeding tenants.

                                   ARTICLE 3

                    RENT, LATE CHARGES AND SECURITY DEPOSITS

     3.1  BASE MONTHLY RENT. Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date (as
determined pursuant to Paragraph 2.3 above) and continuing throughout the
Lease Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without prior demand, deduction or
offset, in advance on the first day of each calendar month, the amount set
forth as "Base Monthly Rent" in Article 1 (the "Base Monthly Rent"). Subject
to the provisions of Section 2.4, Base Monthly Rent shall commence on the
Lease Commencement Date regardless of whether Landlord has completed the
Improvement Work by such date.

     3.2  ADDITIONAL RENT. Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date (as
determined pursuant to Paragraph 2.3 above) and continuing throughout the
Lease Term, in addition to the Base Monthly Rent and to the extent not
required by Landlord to be contracted for and paid directly by Tenant, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord as additional rent (the "Additional Rent") the
following amounts:

          (a) An amount equal to all Property Operating Expenses (as defined
in Article 13) incurred by Landlord. Payment shall be made by whichever of
the following methods (or combination of methods) is (are) from time to time
designated by Landlord:

               (i) Landlord may forward invoices or bills for such expenses
to Tenant, and Tenant shall, no later than ten (10) days prior to the due
date, pay such invoices or bills and deliver satisfactory evidence of such
payment to Landlord, and/or

               (ii) Landlord may bill to Tenant, on a periodic basis not more
frequently than monthly, the amount of such expenses (or group of expenses)
as paid or incurred by Landlord, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount
of such expenses within ten (10) days after receipt of a written bill
therefor from Landlord, and/or

               (iii) Landlord may deliver to Tenant Landlord's reasonable
estimate of any given expense (such as Landlord's Insurance Costs or Real
Property Taxes), or group of expenses, which it anticipates will be paid or
incurred from the ensuring calendar or fiscal year, as Landlord may
determine, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the estimated
amount of such expenses for such year in equal monthly installments during
such year with the installments of Base Monthly Rent.

                                       6.

<PAGE>

Landlord reserves the right to change from time to time the methods of
billing Tenant for any given expense or group of expenses or the periodic
basis on which such expenses are billed.

          (b) Landlord's share of the consideration received by Tenant upon
certain assignments and sublettings as required by Article 7.

          (c) Any legal fees and costs that Tenant is obligated to pay or
reimburse to Landlord pursuant to Article 13; and

          (d) Any other charges or reimbursements due Landlord from Tenant
pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may elect by written notice to Tenant
to have Tenant pay Real Property Taxes or any portion thereof directly to the
applicable taxing authority, in which case Tenant shall make such payments
and deliver satisfactory evidence of payment to Landlord no later than ten
(10) days before such Real Property Taxes become delinquent.

     3.3 YEAR-END ADJUSTMENTS. If Landlord shall have elected to bill Tenant
for the Property Operation Expenses (or any group of such expenses) on an
estimated basis in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3.2(a)(iii)
above, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant within three months following the end
of the applicable calendar or fiscal year, as the case may be, a statement
setting forth (i) the amount of such expenses paid or incurred during the
just ended calendar or fiscal year, as appropriate, and (ii) the amount that
Tenant has paid to Landlord for credit against such expenses for such period.
If Tenant shall have paid more than its obligation for such expenses for the
stated period, Landlord shall, at its election, either (i) credit the amount
of such overpayment toward the next ensuing payment or payments of Additional
Rent that would otherwise be due or (ii) refund in cash to Tenant the amount
of such overpayment. If such year-end statement shall how that Tenant did not
pay its obligation for such expenses in full, then Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the amount of such underpayment within ten days from Landlord's
billing of same to Tenant. The provisions of this Paragraph shall survive the
expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

     3.4 LATE CHARGE, AND INTEREST ON RENT IN DEFAULT. Tenant acknowledges
that the late payment by Tenant of any monthly installment of Base Monthly
Rent or any Additional Rent will cause Landlord to incur certain costs and
expenses not contemplated under this Lease, the exact amounts of which are
extremely difficult or impractical to fix. Such costs and expenses will
include without limitation, administration and collection costs and
processing and accounting expenses. Therefor, except as hereinafter provided,
if any installment of Base Monthly Rent is not received by landlord from
Tenant within ten (10) calendar days after the same becomes due, Tenant shall
immediately pay to Landlord a late charge in an amount equal to the amount
set forth in Article 1 as the "Late Charge Amount," and if any Additional
Rent is not received by Landlord within ten (10) calendar days after same
becomes due, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord a late charge in an
amount equal to 5% of the Additional Rent not so paid. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with a one time written notice
of any default in the payment of Base Monthly Rent or Additional Rent and if
Tenant shall cure such default within five (5) days of delivery of such
written notice, no late charge shall be payable hereunder. Landlord shall not
thereafter be obligated to deliver any

                                       7.

<PAGE>

written notice to Tenant hereunder before a late charge shall become due.
Landlord and Tenant agree that this late charge represents a reasonable
estimate of such costs and expenses and is fair compensation to Landlord for
the anticipated loss Landlord would suffer by reason of Tenant's failure to
make timely payment. In no event shall this provision for a late charge be
deemed to grant to Tenant a grace period or extension of time within which to
pay any rental installment or prevent Landlord from exercising any right or
remedy available to Landlord upon Tenant's failure to pay each rental
installment due under this Lease when due, including the right to terminate
this Lease. If any rent remains delinquent for a period in excess of ten (10)
calendar days, then, subject to the one-time notice right set forth
hereinabove and in addition to such late charge, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
interest on any rent that is not so paid from said tenth (10th) day (or upon
expiration of five (5) days from the one-time written notice provided by
Landlord pursuant to the foregoing) at the then maximum rate of interest not
prohibited or made usurious by Law until paid.

          3.5 PAYMENT OF RENT. Except as specifically provided otherwise in
this Lease, all rent shall be paid in lawful money of the United States,
without any abatement, reduction or offset for any reason whatsoever, to
Landlord at such address as Landlord may designate from time to time.
Tenant's obligation to pay Base Monthly Rent and all Additional Rent shall be
appropriately prorated at the commencement and expiration of the Lease Term.
The failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Rent as required pursuant to this
Lease when due shall be treated the same as a failure by Tenant to pay Base
Monthly Rent when due, and Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies
against Tenant as Landlord would have had Tenant failed to pay the Base
Monthly Rent when due.

     3.6 PREPAID RENT Tenant shall, upon execution of this Lease, pay to
Landlord the amount set forth in Article 1 as "First Month's Prepaid Rent" as
prepayment of rent for credit against the first payment of Base Monthly Rent
due hereunder.

     3.7      SECURITY DEPOSIT; LETTER OF CREDIT.

          (a) Upon execution hereof, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord an
irrevocable letter of credit in form acceptable to Landlord and issued by an
institutional lender acceptable to Landlord, in the amount set forth in
Article 1 as the "Security Deposit," as security for the prompt and complete
performance by Tenant of the obligations and terms of this Lease to be
performed by Tenant, and not as prepayment of rent (the "Letter of Credit").
The Letter of Credit shall (i) show Landlord as the account party, (ii) have
a term of not less than twelve (12) months, (iii) be renewed from time to
time during the period that the Letter or Credit must be maintained pursuant
to this Section 5.2 (such renewals to be fore a period of not less than
twelve (12) months and in the amounts required hereby), and (iv) be in the
form attached hereto as EXHIBIT "D." The term "Letter of Credit" shall, for
the purposes of this Lease, include any replacement or renewal Letter of
Credit.

          (b) Landlord may upon demand draw upon the Letter of Credit and
Landlord may apply such portion or portions of the Security Deposit as are
reasonably necessary for the following purposes: (i) to remedy any default by
Tenant in the payment of Base Monthly Rent or Additional Rent or a late
charge or interest on defaulted rent, or any other monetary payment
obligation of Tenant under this Lease; (ii) to repair damage to the Leased
Premises, the Building

                                       8.

<PAGE>

or the Outside Areas caused or permitted to occur by Tenant, except to the
extent covered by any insurance proceeds received by Landlord under its
casualty insurance policy; (iii) to clean and restore and repair the Leased
Premises, the Building or the Outside Areas following their surrender to
Landlord if not surrendered in the condition required pursuant to the
provisions of Article 2, except for items which Landlord would be obligated
to repair under Section 5.1(b) upon expiration of the Lease term unless any
such damage is caused by Tenant, and (iv) to remedy any other default of
Tenant to the extent permitted by Law including, without limitation, paying
in full on Tenant's behalf any sums claimed by materialmen or contractors of
Tenant to be owing to them by Tenant for work done or improvements made at
Tenant's request to the Leased Premises. In this regard, Tenant hereby waives
any restriction on the uses to which the Security Deposit may be applied as
contained in Section 1950.7(c) of the California Civil Code and/or any
successor statute. In the event the Security Deposit or any portion thereof
is so used, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, promptly upon demand, an amount in
cash sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to the full original sum. If
Tenant fails to promptly restore the Security Deposit and if Tenant shall
have paid to Landlord any sums as "Last Month's Prepaid Rent," Landlord may,
in addition to any other remedy Landlord may have under this Lease, reduce
the amount of Tenant's Last Month's Prepaid Rent by transferring all or
portions of such Last Month's Prepaid Rent to Tenant's Security Deposit until
such Security Deposit is restored to the amount set forth in Article 1.
Landlord shall not be deemed a trustee of the Security Deposit. Landlord may
use the Security Deposit in Landlord's ordinary business and shall not be
required to segregate it from Landlord's general accounts. Tenant shall not
be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit. If Landlord transfers
the Building or the Property during the Lease Term, Landlord may pay the
Security Deposit to any subsequent owner in conformity with the provisions of
Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and/or any successor statute, in
which event the transferring landlord shall be released from all liability
for the return of the Security Deposit. Tenant specifically grants to
Landlord (and Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code
Section 1950.7 to the contrary) a period of ninety (90) days following a
surrender of the Leased Premises by Tenant to Landlord within which to
inspect the Leased Premises, make required restorations and repairs, receive
and verify workmen's billings therefor, and prepare a final accounting with
respect to the Security Deposit. In no event shall the Security Deposit or
any portion thereof, be considered prepaid rent.

purpose whatsoever. Tenant shall continuously and without interruption use

discontinuance of such use for a period of sixty (60) consecutive calendar
days shall be, at Landlord's election, a default by Tenant under the terms of
this Lease. Landlord may elect upon request by Tenant to extend the period of
any vacation of the Premises by Tenant, in Landlord's sole and absolute
discretion ,and in such event may require Tenant to provide reasonable

shall defend, indemnify, and hold Landlord and its agents harmless from and
against all claims, costs and liabilities, including attorneys' fees and
costs, arising out of or in connection with Tenant's storage, use and/or
disposal of Hazardous Materials. If the presence of Hazardous Materials on
the Leased Premises caused or permitted by Tenant results in contamination or
deterioration of water or soil, then Tenant shall promptly take any and all
action necessary to clean up such contamination, but the foregoing shall in
no event be deemed to constitute permission by Landlord to allow the presence
of such Hazardous Materials. At any time prior to the expiration of the Lease
Term if Tenant has a reasonable basis to suspect that there has been any
release or the presence of Hazardous Materials in the ground or groundwater
on the Premises which did not exist upon commencement of the Lease Term,
Tenant shall have the right to conduct appropriate tests of water and soil
and to deliver to Landlord the results of such tests to demonstrate that no
contamination in excess of permitted levels has occurred as a result of
Tenant's use of the Leased Premises. Tenant shall further be solely
responsible for, and shall defend, indemnify, and hold Landlord and its
agents harmless from and against all claims, costs and liabilities, including
attorneys' fees and costs, arising out of or in connection with any removal,
cleanup and restoration work and materials required hereunder to return the

Premises, the Building and/or the Property by Tenant, its agents,
contractors, or invitees, and all installations (whether interior or
exterior) made by or on behalf of Tenant relating to the storage, use,
disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials to be removed from the
Property and transported for use, storage or disposal in accordance and
compliance with all Laws and other requirements respecting Hazardous
Materials used or permitted to be used by Tenant. Tenant shall apply for and
shall obtain from all appropriate regulatory authorities (including any
applicable fire department or regional water quality control board) all
permits, approvals and clearances necessary for the closure of the Property
and shall take all other action as may be required to complete the closure of
the Building and the Property. In addition, prior to vacating the Premises,
Tenant shall undertake and submit to Landlord an environmental site
assessment from an environmental consulting company reasonably acceptable to
Landlord which site assessment shall evidence Tenant's compliance with this
Paragraph 4.11.

          (d) At any time prior to expiration of the Lease Term, subject to
reasonable prior notice (not less than forty-eight (48) hours) and Tenant's
reasonable security requirements and provided such activities do not
unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Tenant's business at the Leased
Premises, Landlord shall have the right to enter in and upon the Property,
Building and Leased Premises in order to conduct appropriate tests of water
and soil to determine whether levels of any Hazardous Materials in excess of
legally permissible levels has occurred as a result of Tenant's use thereof.
Landlord shall furnish copies of all such test results and report to Tenant
and, at Tenant's option and cost, shall permit split sampling for testing and
analysis by Tenant.

                                       14.

Such testing shall be at Tenant's expense if landlord has a reasonable basis
for suspecting and confirms the presence of Hazardous Materials in the soil
or surface or groundwater in, on, under, or about the Property, the Building
or the Leased Premises, which has been caused by or resulted from the
activities of Tenant, its agents, contractors, or invitees.

          (e) Landlord may voluntarily cooperate in a reasonable manner with
the efforts of all governmental agencies in reducing actual or potential
environmental damage. Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease or
to any reduction in or abatement of rent by reason of such compliance or
cooperation. Tenant agrees at all times to cooperate fully with the
requirements and recommendations of governmental agencies regulating, or
otherwise involved in, the protection of the environment.

Inc. is no longer the sole tenant of the Leased Premises, Landlord shall have
the right from time to time to establish reasonable rules and regulations
and/or amendments or additions thereto respecting the use of the Leased
Premises and the Outside Areas for the care and orderly management of the
Property. Upon delivery to Tenant of a copy of such rules and regulations or
any amendments or additions thereto, Tenant shall comply with such rules and
regulations. A violation by Tenant of any of such rules and regulations shall
constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. If there is a conflict
between the rules and regulations and any of the provisions of this Lease,
the provisions of this Lease shall prevail. Landlord shall not be responsible
or liable to Tenant for the violation of such rules and regulations by any
other tenant of the Property. Tenant with any reports of studies in

Leased Premises are adequate for Tenant's needs. Tenant shall be responsible
for determining if the

                                       17.

<PAGE>

unreasonably withheld. All such modifications, alterations or improvements,
once so approved, shall be made, constructed or installed by Tenant at
tenant's expense (including all permit fees and governmental charges related
thereto), using a licensed contractor first approved by Landlord, in
substantial compliance with the Landlord-approved plans and specifications
therefor. All work undertaken by Tenant shall be done in accordance with all

alterations or the construction of any such improvements until (i) all
required governmental approvals and permits shall have been obtained, (ii)
all requirements regarding insurance imposed by this Lease have been
satisfied, (iii) Tenant shall have given Landlord at least five business days
prior written notice of its intention to commence such work so that Landlord
may post and file notices of non-responsibility, and (iv) if requested by
landlord, Tenant shall have obtained contingent liability and broad form
builder's risk insurance in an amount satisfactory to Landlord in its
reasonable discretion to cover any perils relating to the proposed work not

Building, PROVIDED THAT: (a) such alterations do not exceed $10,000
individually or $50,000 in the aggregate, (b) Tenant shall timely provide

Tenant shall, upon Landlord's request, remove all alterations at the
termination of the Lease and restore the Leased Premises to their condition
prior to such alteration; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Tenant may request by
written notice to Landlord prior to making any alteration whether Landlord
shall require Tenant to remove such alteration upon termination of the Lease.
In such event, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved Tenant's surrender
within thirty (30) days of such written request by Tenant indicating that
Landlord will require removal of such alteration upon termination of the
Lease.

     6.2 OWNERSHIP OF IMPROVEMENTS. All modifications, alterations and
improvements made or added to the Leased Premises by Tenant (other than
Tenant's inventory, equipment, movable furniture, wall decorations, trade

Any such modifications, alterations or improvements, once completed, shall
not be altered or removed from the Leased Premises during the Lease Term
without Landlord's written approval first obtained in accordance with the
provisions of Paragraph 6.1 above. At the expiration or sooner termination of
this Lease, all such modifications, alterations and improvements other than
Tenant's inventory, equipment, movable furniture, wall decorations and trade
fixtures, shall automatically become the property of Landlord and shall be
surrendered to Landlord as part of the Leased Premises as required pursuant
to Article 2, unless Landlord shall require Tenant to remove any of

                                       18.

<PAGE>

such modifications, alterations or improvements in accordance with the
provisions of Article 2, in which case Tenant shall so remove same. Landlord
shall have no obligations to reimburse Tenant for all or any portion of the
cost or value of any such modifications, alterations or improvements so
surrendered to Landlord. All modifications, alterations or improvements which
are installed or constructed on or attached to the Leased Premises by
landlord and/or at Landlord's expense shall be deemed real property and a
part of the Leased Premises and shall be property of Landlord. All lighting,
plumbing, electrical, heating, ventilating and air conditioning fixtures,
partitioning, window coverings, wall coverings and floor coverings installed
by Tenant shall be deemed improvements to the Leased Premises and not trade
fixtures of Tenant.

     6.3 ALTERATIONS REQUIRED BY LAW. Tenant shall make all modifications,
alterations and improvements to the Leased Premises, at its sole cost, that
are required by any Law because of (i) Tenant's use or occupancy of the
Leased Premises, the Building, the Outside Areas or the Property, (ii)
Tenant's application for any permit or governmental approval, or (iii)
Tenant's making of any modifications, alterations or improvements to or
within the Leased Premises. If Landlord shall, at any time during the Lease
Term, be required by any governmental authority to make any modifications,
alterations or improvements to the Building or the Property, the cost
incurred by landlord in making such modifications, alterations or
improvements, including interest at a rate equal to the greater of (a) 12%,
or (b) the sum of that rate quoted by Wells Fargo Bank, N.T. & S.A. from time
to time as its prime rate, plus two percent (2%) ("Wells Prime Plus Two"),
shall be amortized by Landlord over the useful life of such modifications,
alterations or improvements, as determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and the monthly amortized cost of such
modifications, alterations and improvements as so amortized shall be
considered a Property Maintenance Cost.

     6.4 LIENS. Tenant shall keep the Property and every part thereof free
from any lien, and shall pay when due all bills arising out of any work
performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by Tenant, its
agents, employees or contractors relating to the Property. If any such claim
of lien is recorded against Tenant's interest in this Lease, the Property or
any part thereof, Tenant shall bond against, discharge or otherwise cause
such lien to be entirely released within ten days after the same has been
recorded. Tenant's failure to do so shall be conclusively deemed a material
default under the terms of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant
shall be allowed to create consensual security interests in equipment
purchased or leased by Tenant and installed in the Leased Premises ("Financed
Equipment"), and Landlord shall waive any statutory or other lien rights that
it may have in such Financed Equipment in favor of the lender or lessor
("Equipment Financier") providing financing for the acquisition of the
Financed Equipment, subject to satisfaction of each of the following: (i)
such waiver shall be evidenced in a written waiver in form and substance
satisfactory to Landlord, (ii) Tenant and the Equipment Financier each shall
agree that it shall repair any damage and restore the Leased Premises to
their prior condition upon the removal from the Leased Premises of any
Financed Equipment and, if required by Landlord, shall post bonds or other
security to secure such obligation, (iii) the Equipment Financier shall
deliver written notice to Landlord not less than five (5) business days prior
to any entry upon the Leased Premises by such Equipment Financier or its
employees, agents or contractors, and (iv) no auction or sale of the Financed
Equipment shall be conducted from the Leased Premises. Landlord hereby
approves the form of waiver of Tenant rights attached hereto as Exhibit E.

                       ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING BY TENANT

     7.1  BY TENANT. Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Premises or any
portion thereof or assign its interest in this Lease, whether voluntarily or
by operation of law, without Landlord's prior written consent which shall not
be unreasonably withheld. Any attempted subletting or assignment without
Landlord's prior written consent, at landlord's election, shall constitute a
default by Tenant under the terms of this Lease. The acceptance of rent by
Landlord from any person or entity other than Tenant, or the acceptance of
rent by landlord from Tenant with knowledge of a violation of the provisions
of this paragraph, shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any
provisions of this Article or this Lease or to be a consent to any subletting
by Tenant or any assignment of Tenant's interest in this Lease. Without
limiting the circumstances in which it may be reasonable for Landlord to
withhold its consent to an assignment or subletting, Landlord and Tenant
acknowledge that it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent
in the following instances:

          (a)  the proposed assignee or sublessee is a governmental agency;

          (b)  in Landlord's reasonable judgment, the use of the Premises by
the proposed assignee or sublessee would involve occupancy by other than
primarily general office or software engineering personnel, would entail any
alterations which would lessen the value of the leasehold improvements in the
Premises, or would require increased services by Landlord;

          (c)  in Landlord's reasonable judgment, the financial worth of the
proposed assignee does not meet the credit standards applied by Landlord;

          (d)  the proposed assignee or sublessee (or any of its affiliates)
has been in material default under a lease, has been in litigation with a
previous landlord, or in the ten years prior to the assignment or sublease
has filed for bankruptcy protection, has been the subject of an involuntary
bankruptcy, or has been adjudged insolvent;

          (e)  Landlord has experienced a previous default by or is in
litigation with the proposed assignee or sublessee;

          (f)  in Landlord's reasonable judgment, the Premises, or the
relevant part thereof, will be used in a manner that will violate any
negative covenant as to use contained in this Lease;

          (g)  the use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or sublessee
will violate any applicable law, ordinance or regulation;

          (h)  the proposed assignee or sublessee is, as of the date of this
Lease, a tenant in the Building;

          (i)  the proposed assignment or sublease fails to include all of
the terms and provisions required to be included therein pursuant to this
Article 7;

                                       20.

<PAGE>

          (j)  Tenant is in default of any obligation of Tenant under this
Lease, or Tenant has defaulted under this Lease on three or more occasions
during the 12 months preceding the date that Tenant shall request consent; or

          (k)  in the case of a subletting of less than the entire Premises,
if the subletting would result in the division of the Premises into more than
two subparcels or would require improvements to be made outside of the
Premises.

     7.2  MERGER OR REORGANIZATION.  If Tenant is a corporation, any
dissolution, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant, or the
sale or other transfer in the aggregate over the Lease Term of a controlling
percentage of the capital stock of Tenant, shall be deemed a voluntary
assignment of Tenant's interest in this Lease. The phrase "controlling
percentage" means the ownership of and the right to vote stock possessing
more than fifty percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of
Tenant's capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote for the
election of directors. If Tenant is a partnership, a withdrawal or change,
voluntary, involuntary or by operation of Law, of any general partner, or the
dissolution of the partnership, shall be deemed a voluntary assignment of
Tenant's interest in this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
provisions of this Section 7.2 shall not apply to Tenant if (a) it is a
corporation the stock of which is listed on a national securities exchange
(as this market, or (b) Tenant merges with or into another corporation so
long as (i) Tenant gives written notice to Landlord prior to the effective
date of such merger, (ii) the surviving corporation has (and Tenant provides
Landlord prior to the effective date of such merger, (ii) the surviving
corporation and (and Tenant provides Landlord with financial statements
confirming that the surviving corporation has) a net worth of not less than
the greater of (A) the net worth of Tenant as of the date of this Lease, or
(B) the net worth of Tenant immediately prior to the effective date of such
merger, and (iii) the surviving entity executes an assumption of lease or
other documentation acceptable to Landlord confirming that the surviving
entity has assumed and agrees to perform its obligations under and is bound
by the terms of this Lease.

     7.3  LANDLORD'S ELECTION.  If Tenant shall desire to assign its interest
under the Lease or to sublet the Leased Premises, Tenant must first notify
Landlord, in writing, of its intent to so assign or sublet, at least thirty
(30) days in advance of the date it intends to so assign its interest in this
Lease or sublet the Leased Premises but not sooner than one hundred eighty
days in advance of such date, specifying in detail the terms of such proposed
assignment or subletting, including the name of the proposed assignee or
sublessee, the property assignee's or sublessee's intended use of the Leased
Premises, current financial statements (including a balance sheet, income
statement and statement of cash flow, all prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles) of such proposed assignee or
sublessee, the form of documents to be used in effectuating such assignment
or subletting and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request.
Landlord shall have a period of ten (10) business days following receipt of
such notice and the required information within which to do one of the
following (i) consent to such requested assignment or subletting subject to
Tenant's compliance with the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7.4 below, or
(ii) refuse to so consent to such requested assignment or subletting,
provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably refused, or (iii)
terminate this Lease as to the portion (including all) of the Leased Premises
that is the subject of the proposed assignment or subletting. During such ten
(10) business day period, Tenant covenants and agrees to supply to Landlord,
upon request, all necessary relevant information which Landlord may

                                       21.

<PAGE>

reasonably request respecting such proposed assignment or subletting and/or
the proposed assignee or sublessee. If Landlord shall elect to terminate this
Lease pursuant to the foregoing Tenant shall have ten (10) business days
after receipt of Landlord's written notice hereunder to notify Landlord in
writing that Tenant elects not to sublease or assign its interest under this
lease and therefore to reinstate the lease.

     7.4  CONDITIONS TO LANDLORD'S CONSENT.  If Landlord elects to consent,
or shall have been ordered to so consent by a court of competent
jurisdiction, to such requested assignment or subletting, such consent shall
be expressly conditioned upon the occurrence of each of the conditions below
set forth, and any purported assignment or subletting made or ordered prior
to the full and complete satisfaction of each of the following conditions
shall be void and, at the election of Landlord, which election may be
exercised at any time following such a purported assignment or subletting but
prior to the satisfaction of each of the stated conditions, shall constitute
a material default by Tenant under this Lease until cured by satisfying in
full each such condition by the assignee or sublessee. The conditions are as
follows:

          (a)  Landlord having approved in form and substance the assignment
or sublease agreement and any ancillary documents, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld by Landlord if the requirements of this Article 7
are otherwise complied with.

          (b)  Each such sublessee or assignee having agreed, in writing
satisfactory to landlord and its counsel and for the benefit of Landlord, to
assume, to be bound by, and to perform the obligations of this Lease to be
performed by Tenant which relate to space being subleased.

          (c)  Tenant shall not be under any existing event of default under
the terms of this Lease.

          (d)  Tenant having reimbursed to Landlord all reasonable costs and
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord (provided such attorneys fees

processing and documentation of any such requested subletting or assignment.

          (e)  Tenant having delivered to Landlord a complete and
fully-executed duplicate original of such sublease agreement or assignment
agreement (as applicable) and all related agreements.

          (f)  Tenant having paid, or having agreed in writing to pay as to
future payments, to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all assignment
consideration or excess rentals to be paid to Tenant or to any other on
Tenant's behalf or for Tenant's benefit for such assignment or subletting as
follows:

                 (i)     If Tenant assigns it interest under this Lease and
if all or a portion of the consideration for such assignment is to be paid by
the assignee at the time of the assignment, that Tenant shall have paid to
Landlord and Landlord shall have received an amount equal to fifty percent
(50%) of the assignment consideration so paid or to be paid (whichever is the
greater) at the time of the assignment by the assignee; or

                                       22.

<PAGE>

                (ii)     If Tenant assigns it interest under this Lease and
if Tenant is to receive all or a portion of the consideration for such
assignment in future installments, that Tenant and Tenant's assignee shall
have entered into a written agreement with and for the benefit of landlord
satisfactory to Landlord and its counsel whereby Tenant and Tenant's assignee
jointly agree to pay to Landlord an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of
all such future assignment consideration installments to be paid by such
assignee as and when such assignment consideration is so paid.

               (iii)     If Tenant subleases the Leased Premises, that Tenant
and Tenant's sublessee shall have entered into a written agreement with and
for the benefit of Landlord satisfactory to Landlord and its counsel whereby
Tenant and Tenant's sublessee jointly agree to pay to Landlord fifty percent
(50%) of all excess rentals to be paid by such sublessee as and when such
excess rentals are so paid.

     7.5  ASSIGNMENT CONSIDERATION AND EXCESS RENTALS DEFINED.  For purposes
of this Article, including any amendment to this Article by way of addendum
or other writing, the term "assignment consideration" shall mean all
consideration to be paid by the assignee to Tenant or to any other party on
Tenant's behalf or for Tenant's benefit as consideration for such assignment,
without deduction for any commissions paid by Tenant or any other costs or
expenses (including, without limitation, tenant improvements, capital
improvements, building upgrades, permit fees, attorneys' fees, and other
consultants' fees) incurred by Tenant in connection with such assignment, and
the term "excess rentals" shall mean all consideration to be paid by the
sublessee to Tenant or to any other party on Tenant's behalf or for Tenant's
benefit for the sublease of the Leased Premises in excess of the rent due to
Landlord under the terms of this Lease for the same period, without deduction
for any commissions paid by Tenant or any other costs or expenses (including,
without limitation, tenant improvements, capital improvements, building
upgrades, permit fees, attorneys' fees, and other consultants' fees) incurred
by Tenant in connection with such sublease. Tenant agrees that the portion of
any assignment consideration and/or excess rentals arising from any
assignment or subletting by Tenant which is to be paid to Landlord pursuant
to this Article now is and shall then be the property of landlord and not the
property of Tenant.

     7.6  PAYMENTS.  All payments required by this Article to be made to
Landlord shall be made in cash in full as and when they become due. At the
time Tenant, Tenant's assignee or sublessee makes each such payment to
Landlord, Tenant or Tenant's assignee or sublessee, as the case may be, shall
deliver to Landlord an itemized statement in reasonable detail showing the
method by which the amount due Landlord was calculated and certified by the
party making such payment as true and correct.

     7.7  GOOD FAITH.  The rights granted to Tenant by this Article are
granted in consideration of Tenant's express covenant that all pertinent
allocations which are made by Tenant between the rental value of the Leased
Premises and the value of any of Tenant's personal property which may be
conveyed or leased generally concurrently with and which may reasonably be
considered a part of the same transaction as the permitted assignment or
subletting shall be made fairly, honestly and in good faith. If Tenant shall
breach this covenant, Landlord may immediately declare Tenant to be in
default under the terms of this Lease and terminate this

                                       23.

<PAGE>

Lease and/or exercise any other rights and remedies Landlord would have under
the terms of this Lease in the case of a material default by Tenant under
this Lease.

     7.8  EFFECT OF LANDLORD'S CONSENT.  No subletting or assignment, even
with the consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its personal and
primary obligation to pay rent and to perform all of the other obligations to
be performed by Tenant hereunder. Consent by Landlord to one or more
assignments of Tenant's interest in this Lease or to one or more sublettings
of the Leased Premises shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent
assignment or subletting. If Landlord shall have been ordered by a court of
competent jurisdiction to consent to a requested assignment or subletting, or
such and assignment or subletting shall have been ordered by a court of
competent jurisdiction over the objections of Landlord, such assignment or
subletting shall not be binding between the assignee (or sublessee) and
Landlord until such time as all conditions set forth in Paragraph 7.4 above
have been fully satisfied (to the extent not then satisfied) by the assignee
or sublessee, including, without limitation, the payment to Landlord of all
agreed assignment considerations and/or excess rentals then due Landlord.

                                  ARTICLE 8

              LIMITATION ON LANDLORD'S LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY

     8.1  LIMITATION ON LANDLORD'S LIABILITY AND RELEASE.  Landlord shall not
be liable to Tenant for, and Tenant hereby releases Landlord and its
partners, principals, members, officers, agents, employees, lenders,
attorneys, and consultants from, any and all liability whether in contract,
tort or on any other basis, for any injury to or any damage sustained by
Tenant., Tenant's agents, employees, contractors or invitees, any damage to
Tenant's property, or any loss to Tenant's business, loss of Tenant's profits
or other financial loss of Tenant resulting from or attributable to the
condition of, the management of, the repair or maintenance of, the protection
or, the supply of services or utilities to, the damage in or destruction of
the Leased Premises, the Building, the Property or the Outside Areas,
including without limitation (i) the failure, interruption, rationing or
other curtailment or cessation in the supply of electricity, water, gas or
other utility service to the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises;
(ii) the vandalism or forcible entry into the Building or the Leased
Premises; (iii) the penetration of water into or onto any portion of the
Leased Premises; (iv) the failure to provide security and/or adequate
lighting in or about the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises; (v)
the existence of any design or construction defects within the Property, the
Building or the Leased Premises; (vi) the failure of any mechanical systems
to function properly (such as the HVAC systems); (vii) the blockage of access
to any portion of the Property, the Building or the Leased Premises, except
that Tenant does not so release Landlord from such liability to the extent
such damage was promixately caused by Landlord's active negligence, willful
misconduct, or Landlord's failure to perform an obligation expressly
undertaken pursuant to this Lease after a reasonable period of time shall
have lapsed following receipt of written notice from Tenant to so perform
such obligation. In this regard, Tenant acknowledges that it is fully
apprised of the provisions of Law relating to releases, and particularly to
those provisions contained in Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which
reads as follows:

                                       24.

<PAGE>

         "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does
         not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the
         release, which if known by him must have materially affected his
         settlement with the debtor."

Notwithstanding such statutory provision, and for the purpose of implementing a
full and complete release and discharge, Tenant hereby (i) waives the benefit of
such statutory provision and (ii) acknowledges that, subject to the exceptions
specifically set forth herein, the release and discharge set forth in this
paragraph is a full and complete settlement and release and discharge of all
claims and is intend to include in its effect, without limitation, all claims
which Tenant, as of the date hereof, does not know of or suspect to exist in its
favor.

     8.2  TENANT'S INDEMNIFICATION OF LANDLORD.  Tenant shall defend with
competent counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord any claims made or
legal actions filed or threatened against Landlord with respect to the
violation of any law, or the death, bodily injury, personal injury, property
damage, or interference with contractual or property rights suffered by any
third party occurring within the Leased Premises or resulting from Tenant's
use or occupancy of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Outside Areas,
or resulting from Tenant's activities in or about the Leased Premises, the
Building, the Outside Areas or the Property, and Tenant shall indemnify and
hold Landlord, Landlord's partners, principals, members, employees, agents
and contractors harmless from any loss liability, penalties, or expense
whatsoever (including any loss attributable to vacant space which otherwise
would have been leased, but for such activities) resulting therefrom, except
to the extent proximately caused by the active negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord. This indemnity agreement shall survive until the
latter to occur of (i) the date of expiration, or sooner termination, of this
Lease, or (ii) the date Tenant actually vacates the Leased Premises.

                                   ARTICLE 9

<PAGE>

termination of the Lease or expiration of the Lease Term, Landlord may use
the Security Deposit to provide such coverage.

                (ii)     Fire and property damage insurance in so-called
"fire and extended coverage" form insuring Tenant against loss from physical
damage to Tenant's personal property, inventory, trade fixtures and
improvements within the Leased Premises with coverage for the full actual

               (iii)     Pressure vessel insurance, if applicable;

                (iv)     Product liability insurance (including, without

beverages (including alcoholic beverages, if applicable) at the Leased
Premises for not less than Tenant's Required Liability Coverage (as set forth
in Article 1);

                 (v)     Workers' compensation insurance and any other

reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

          (b)  Each polity of liability insurance required to be carried by
Tenant pursuant to this paragraph or actually carried by Tenant with respect
to the Leased Premises or the Property; (i) shall, except with respect to
insurance required by subparagraph (a)(vi) above, name Landlord, and such
others as are designated by Landlord, as additional insureds; (ii) shall be
primary insurance providing that the insurer shall be liable for the full
amount of the loss, up to and including the total amount of liability set
forth in the declaration of coverage, without the right of contribution from
or prior payment by any other insurance coverage of Landlord; (iii) shall be
in a form satisfactory to Landlord; (iv) shall be carried with companies
reasonably acceptable to landlord with Best's ratings of at least A and XI;

policy shall not be subject to cancellation, lapse or change except after at
least thirty day prior written notice to Landlord and (ii) shall contain a
waiver and/or a permission to waive by the insurer of any right of
subrogation against Landlord, its partners, principals, members, officers,
employees, agents and contractors, which might arise by reason of any payment
under such policy or by reason of any act or omission of Landlord, its
partners, principals, members, officers, employees, agents and contractors.

          (c)  Prior to the time Tenant or any of its contractors enters the
Leased Premises, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, with respect to each
policy of insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this
Article, a copy of such policy (appropriately authenticated by the insurer as
having been issued, premium paid) or a certificate of the insurer certifying
in

                                       26.

<PAGE>

form satisfactory to landlord that a policy has been issued, premium paid,
providing the coverage required by this Paragraph and containing the
provisions specified herein. With respect to each renewal or replacement of
any such insurance, the requirements of this Paragraph must be complied with
prior to the expiration or cancellation of the policies being renewed or
replaced. Landlord may, at any time and from time to time, inspect and/or
copy any and all insurance policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant
to this Article. If Landlord's Lender, insurance broker, and advisor or
counsel reasonably determines at any time that the amount of coverage set
forth in Paragraph 9.1(a) for any policy of insurance Tenant is required to
carry pursuant to this Article is not adequate, then Tenant shall increase
the amount of coverage for such insurance to such greater amount as
Landlord's Lender, insurance broker, advisor or counsel reasonably deems
adequate.

     9.2  LANDLORD'S INSURANCE.  With respect to insurance maintained by
Landlord:

          (a)  Landlord shall maintain, as the minimum coverage required of
it by this lease, fire and property damage insurance in so-called "fire and
extended coverage" form insuring Landlord (and such others as Landlord may
designate) against loss from physical damage to the Building with coverage of
not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full actual replacement cost
hereof and against loss of rents for a period of not less than 12 months.
Such fire and property damage insurance, at Landlord's election but without
any requirements on landlord's behalf to do so, (i) may be written in
so-called "all-risk" form, excluding only those perils commonly excluded from
such coverage by Landlord's then property damage insurer; (ii) may provide
coverage for physical damage to the improvements so insured for up to the
entire full actual replacement cost thereof; (iii) may be endorsed to cover
loss or damage caused by any additional perils against which Landlord may
elect to insure, including earthquake and/or flood; and /or (iv) may provide
coverage for loss of rents for a period of up to twelve months. Landlord
shall not be required to cause such insurance to cover any of Tenant's
personal property, inventory, and trade fixtures, or any modifications,
alterations or improvements made or constructed by Tenant to or within the
Leased Premises. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
such insurance at competitive rates.

          (b)  Landlord shall maintain commercial general liability insurance
insuring Landlord (and such others as are designated by Landlord) against
liability for personal injury, bodily injury, death, and damage to property
occurring in, on or about, or resulting from the use or occupancy of the
Property, or any portion thereof, with combined single limit coverage of at
least Three Million dollars ($3,000,000). Landlord may carry such greater
coverage as Landlord or Landlord's Lender, insurance broker, advisor or
counsel may from time to time determine is reasonably necessary for the
adequate protection of Landlord and the Property.

          (c)  Landlord may maintain any other insurance which in the opinion
of its insurance broker, advisor or legal counsel is prudent to carry under
the given circumstances, provided such insurance is commonly carried by
owners of property similarly situated and operating under similar
circumstances.

     9.3  MUTUAL WAIVER OF SUBROGATION.  Landlord hereby releases Tenant, and
Tenant hereby releases Landlord and its respective partners, principals,
members, officers, agents, employees and servants, from any and all liability
for loss, damage or injury to the property of

                                       27.

<PAGE>

the other in or about the Leased Premises or the Property which is caused by
or results from a peril or event or happening which is covered by insurance
actually carried and in force at the time of the loss by the party sustaining
such loss; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such waiver shall be effective only to the
extent permitted by the insurance covering such loss and to the extent such
insurance is not prejudiced thereby.

                                   ARTICLE 10

                           DAMAGE TO LEASED PREMISES

     10.1  LANDLORD'S DUTY TO RESTORE.  If the Leased Premises, the Building
or the Outside Area are damaged by any peril after the Effective Date of this
Lease, Landlord shall restore the same, as and when required by this
paragraph, unless this Lease is terminated by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph
10.3 or by Tenant pursuant to Paragraph 10.4. If this Lease is not so
terminated, then upon the issuance of all necessary governmental permits,
Landlord shall commence and diligently prosecute to completion the
restoration of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Outside Area, as the
case may be, to the extent then allowed by law to substantially the same
condition in which it existed as of the Lease Commencement Date. Landlord's
obligation to restore shall be limited to actual receipt of insurance
proceeds and to the improvements constructed by Landlord. Landlord shall have
no obligation to restore any improvements made by Tenant to the Leased
Premises or any of Tenant's personal property, inventory or trade fixtures.
Upon completion of the restoration by Landlord, Tenant shall forthwith
replace or fully repair all of Tenant's personal property, inventory, trade
fixtures and other improvements constructed by Tenant to like or similar
conditions as existed at the time immediately prior to such damage or
destruction, subject to delays resulting from disbursement of insurance
proceeds by Tenant's insurer. So long as the damage is not the result of the
act or omission of Tenant and Tenant has maintained in full force and effect
all policies of insurance required to be maintained by Tenant pursuant to
this Lease, Tenant shall not be required to expend funds to restore its
personal property, inventory, trade fixtures and other non-permanent
improvements constructed by Tenant to the extent the cost of restoration
exceeds the insurance proceeds paid to Tenant (plus any deductible or
self-insured retention by Tenant).

    10.2  INSURANCE PROCEEDS.  All insurance proceeds available from the fire
and property damage insurance carried by Landlord shall be paid to and become
the property of Landlord. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to either
Paragraph 10.3 or 10.4, all insurance proceeds available from insurance
carried by Tenant which cover loss of property that is Landlord's property or
would become Landlord's property on termination of this Lease shall be paid
to and become the property of Landlord, and the remainder of such proceeds
shall be paid to and become the property of Tenant. If this Lease is not
terminated pursuant to either Paragraph 10.3 or 10.4, all insurance proceeds
available from insurance carried by Tenant which cover loss to property that
is Landlord's property shall be paid to and become the property of landlord,
and all proceeds available from such insurance which cover loss to property
which would only become the property of Landlord upon termination of this
lease shall be paid and remain the property of Tenant. The determination of
Landlord's property and Tenant's property shall be made pursuant to Paragraph
6.2.

                                       28.

<PAGE>

    10.3  LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE.  Landlord shall have the option to
terminate this Lease in the event any of the following occurs, which option
may be exercised only by delivery to Tenant of a written notice of election
to terminate within thirty (30) days after the date of such damage or
destruction:

          (a)  The Building is damaged by any peril covered by valid and
collectible insurance actually carried by Landlord and in force at the time
of such damage or destruction (an "insured peril") to such any extent that
the estimated cost to restore the Building exceeds the lesser of (i) the
insurance proceeds available from insurance required to be carried by
Landlord, or (ii) fifty percent (50%) of the then actual replacement cost
thereof;

          (b)  The Building is damaged by an uninsured peril, which peril
Landlord was not required to insure against pursuant to the provisions of
Article 9 of this Lease.

          (c)  The Building is damaged by any peril and, because of the laws
then in force, the Building (i) cannot be restored at reasonable cost or (ii)
if restored, cannot be used for the same use being made thereof before such
damage.

     10.4  TENANT'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE.  If the Leased Premises, the Building
or the Outside Area are damaged by any peril and Landlord does not elect to
terminate this Lease or is not entitled to terminate this Lease pursuant to
this Article, then as soon as reasonably practicable, Landlord shall furnish
Tenant with the written opinion of Landlord's architect or construction
consultant as to when the restoration work required of landlord may be
complete. Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease in the event
any of the following occurs, which option may be exercised only by delivery
to Landlord of a written notice of election to terminate within thirty (30)
days after Tenant receives from Landlord the estimate of the time needed to
complete such restoration:

          (a)  If the time estimated to substantially complete the
restoration exceeds six months from and after the date the architect's or
construction consultant's written opinion is delivered; or

          (b)  If the damage occurred within twelve months of the last day of
the Lease Term and the time estimated to substantially complete the
restoration exceeds one hundred eight days from and after the date such
restoration is commenced.

    10.5  TENANT'S WAIVER.  Landlord and Tenant agree that the provisions of
Paragraph 10.4 above, captioned "Tenant's Right To Terminate", are intended
to supersede and replace the provisions contained in California Civil Code,
Section 1932, Subdivision 2, and California Civil Code, Section 1934, and
accordingly, Tenant hereby waives the provisions of such Civil Code Sections
and the provisions of any successor Civil Code Sections or similar laws
hereinafter enacted.

    10.6  ABATEMENT OF RENT.  In the event of damage to the Leased Premises
which does not result in the termination of this Lease, the Base Monthly Rent
(and any Additional Rent) shall be temporarily abated during the period of
restoration in proportion in the degree to which Tenant's use of the Leased
Premises is impaired by such damage.

                                       29.

without limiting Landlord's right to indemnification as provided in Article

thereafter accruing. In no event shall any

                                       32.

<PAGE>

one or more of the following actions by Landlord, in the absence of a written
election by Landlord to terminate this Lease constitute a termination of this
Lease:

               (i)  Appointment of a receiver or keeper in order to protect
Landlord's interest hereunder;

               (ii) Consent to any subletting of the Leased Premises or
assignment of this Lease by Tenant, whether pursuant to the provisions hereof
or otherwise; or

               (iii) Any action taken by Landlord or its partners,
principals, members, officers, agents, employees, or servants, which is
intended to mitigate the adverse effects of any breach of this Lease by
Tenant, including, without limitation, any action taken to maintain and
preserve the leased Premises on any action taken to relet the Leased Premises
or any portion thereof for the account at Tenant and in the name of Tenant.

          (c) In the event Tenant breaches this Lease and abandons the Leased
Premises, Landlord may terminate this Lease, but this Lease shall not
terminate unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice of termination. If
Landlord does not terminate this Lease by giving written notice of
termination, Landlord may enforce all its rights and remedies under this
Lease, including the right and remedies provided by California Civil Code
Section 1951.4 ("lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee's breach

entitled, at Landlord's election, to the rights and remedies provide in
California Civil Code Section 1951.2, as in effect on the Effective Date of
this Lease. For purposes of computing damages pursuant to Section 1951.2, an
interest rate equal to the maximum rate of interest then not prohibited by
law shall be used where permitted. Such damages shall include, without
limitation:

               (i) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the
unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the
amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided,
computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco, at the time of award plus one percent; and

               (ii) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all
detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's
obligations under this Lease, or which in the ordinary course of things would
be likely to result therefrom, including without limitation, the following:
(i) expenses for cleaning, repairing or restoring the Leased Premises, (ii)
expenses for altering, remodeling or otherwise improving the Leased Premises
for the purpose of reletting, including removal of existing leasehold
improvements and/or installation of additional leasehold improvements
(regardless of how same is funded, including reduction of rent, a direct
payment or allowance to anew tenant, or otherwise), (iii) broker's fees
allocable to the remainder of the term of this Lease, advertising costs and
other expenses of reletting the Leased Premises; (iv) costs of carrying and
maintaining the Leased Premises, such as taxes, insurance premiums, utility
charges and security precautions, (v) expenses incurred in

                                       33.

<PAGE>

inventory or trade fixtures remaining therein; (vi) reasonable attorneys'
fees, expert witness fees, court costs and other reasonable expenses incurred
by Landlord (but not limited to taxable costs) in retaking possession of the
Leased Premises, establishing damages hereunder, and releasing the Leased
Premises; and (vii) any other expenses, costs or damages otherwise incurred
or suffered as a result of Tenant's default.

     12.3 LANDLORD'S DEFAULT AND TENANT'S REMEDIES. In the event Landlord
fails to perform its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall
nevertheless not be in default under the terms of this Lease until such time
as Tenant shall have first given Landlord written notice specifying the
nature of such failure to perform its obligations, and then only after
Landlord shall have had thirty (30) days following its receipt of such notice
within which to perform such obligations; PROVIDED, THAT, if longer than
thirty (30) days is reasonably required in order to perform such obligations,
Landlord shall have such longer period. In the event of Landlord's default as
above set forth, then, and only then, Tenant may then proceed in equity or at
law to compel Landlord to perform its obligations and/or to recover damages
proximately caused by such failure to perform (except as and to the extent
Tenant has waived its right to damages as provided in this Lease).

     12.4 LIMITATION OF TENANT'S RECOURSE. Tenant's recourse shall be limited
to Landlord's interest in the Property. In addition, if Landlord is a
corporation, trust, parntership, joint venture, limited liability company,
unincorporated association, or other form of business entity, Tenant agrees
that (i) the obligations of Landlord under this Lease shall not constitute
personal obligations of the officers, directors, trustees, partners, joint
venturers, members, owners, stockholders, or other principals of such
business entity, and (ii) Tenant shall have no recourse to the assets of such
offices, directors, trustees, partners, joint venturers, members, owners,
stockholders or principals. Additionally, if Landlord is a partnership or
limited liability company, then Tenant covenants and agrees:

          (a) No partner or member of Landlord shall be sued or named as a
party in any suit or action brought by Tenant with respect to any alleged
breach of this Lease (except to the extent necessary to secure jurisdiction
over the partnership and then only for that sole purpose);

          (b) No service of process shall be made against any partner or
member of Landlord except for the sole purpose of securing jurisdiction over
the partnership; and

          (c) No writ of execution will ever be levied against the assets of
any partner or member of Landlord other than to the extent of his or her
interest in the assets of the partnership or limited liability company
constituting Landlord.

Tenant further agrees that each of the foregoing covenants and agreements
shall be enforceable by Landlord and by any partner or member of Landlord and
shall be applicable to any actual or alleged misrepresentation or
nondisclosure made regarding this Lease or the Leased Premises or any actual
or alleged failure, default or reach of any covenant or agreement either
expressly or implicitly contained in this Lease or imposed by statute or at
common law.

                                       34.

Paragraph 12.3 above are intended to supersede and replace the provisions of
California Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1941 and 1942, and accordingly,
Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Sections
1932(1), 1941 and 1942 and/or any similar or successor law regarding Tenant's
right to terminate this Lease or to make repairs and deduct the expenses of
such repairs from the rent due under this Lease.

     13.1 TAXES ON TENANT'S PROPERTY. Tenant shall pay before delinquency any
and all taxes, assessments, license fees, use fees, permit fees and public
charges of whatever nature or description levied, assessed or imposed against
Tenant or Landlord by a governmental agency arising out of, caused by reason

property, improvements made by Tenant to the Leased Premises or the Outside
Areas, improvements made by Landlord for Tenant's use within the Leased
Premises or the Outside Areas, Tenant's use (or estimated use) of public
facilities or services or Tenant's consumption (or estimated consumption) or
public utilities, energy, water or other resources (collectively, "Tenant's
Interest"). Upon demand by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with
satisfactory evidence of these payments. If any such taxes, assessments, fees
or public charges are levied against Landlord, Landlord's property, the
Building or the Property, or if the assessed value of the Building or the
Property is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon
Tenant's interest, regardless of the validity thereof, Landlord shall have
the right to require Tenant to pay such taxes, and if not paid and
satisfactory evidence of payment delivered to Landlord at least ten days
prior to delinquency, then Landlord shall have the right to pay such taxes on
Tenant's behalf and to invoice Tenant for the same. Tenant shall, within the
earlier to occur of (a) thirty (30) days of the date it receives an invoice
from Landlord setting forth the amount of such taxes, assessments, fees, or
public charge so levied, or (b) the due date of such invoice, pay to the
Landlord, as Additional Rent, the amount set forth in such invoice. Failure
by Tenant to pay the amount so invoiced within such time period shall be
conclusively deemed a default by Tenant under this Lease. Tenant shall have
the right to bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover
from the taxing authority the amount of any such taxes, assessments, fees or
public charges so paid.

     13.2 HOLDING OVER. this Lease shall terminate without further notice on
the Lease Expiration Date (as set forth in Article 1). Any holding over by
Tenant after expiration of the Lease Term shall neither constitute a renewal
nor extension of this Lease nor give Tenant any rights in or to the Leased
Premises except as expressly provided in this Paragraph. Any such holding
over to which Landlord has consented shall be construed to be a tenancy from
month to month, on the same terms and conditions herein specified insofar as
applicable, except that the Base Monthly Rent shall be increased to an amount
equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Monthly Rent payable
during the last full month immediately preceding such holding over.

     13.3 SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGES. This Lease is subject to and
subordinate to all ground leases, mortgages and deeds of trust which affect
the Building or the Property and which

                                       35.

<PAGE>

are of public record as of the Effective Date of this Lease, and to all
renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof.
However, if the lessor under any such ground lease or any lender holding any
such mortgage or deed of trust shall advise Landlord that it desires or
requires this Lease to be made prior and superior thereto, then, upon written
request of Landlord to Tenant, Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and
deliver any and all customary or reasonable documents or instruments which
Landlord and such lessor or lender deems necessary or desirable to make this
Lease prior thereto. Tenant hereby consents to Landlord's ground leasing the
land underlying the Building or the Property and/or encumbering the Building
or the Property as security for future loans on such terms as Landlord shall
desire, all of which future ground leases, mortgages or deeds of trust shall
be subject to and subordinate to this Lease. However, if any lessor under any
such future ground lease or any lender holding such future mortgage or deed
of trust shall desire or require that this Lease be made subject to and
subordinate to such future ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust, then
Tenant agrees, within ten days after Landlord's written request therefor, to
exclude, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord any and all documents or
instruments requested by Landlord or by such lessor or lender as may be
necessary or proper to assure the subordination of this Lease to such future
ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust, but only if such lessor or lender
agrees to recognize Tenant's rights under this lease and agrees not to
disturb Tenant's quite possession of the Leased Premises so long as Tenant is
not in default under this lease. If Landlord assigns the Lease as security
for a loan, Tenant agrees to execute such documents as are reasonably
requested by the lender and to provide reasonable provisions in the Lease
protecting such lender's security interest which are customarily required by
institutional lenders making loans secured by a deed of trust.

     13.4 TENANT'S ATTORNMENT UPON FORECLOSURE. Tenant shall, upon request,
attorn (i) to any purchaser of the Building or the Property at any
foreclosure sale or private sale conducted pursuant to any security
instruments encumbering the Building or the Property, (ii) to any guarantee
or transferee designated in any deed given in lieu of foreclosure of any
security interest encumbering the Building or the Property, or (iii) to the
lessor under any underlying ground lease of the land underlying the Building
or the Property, should ground lease be terminated; provided that such
purchaser, grantee or lessor recognizes Tenant's rights under this Lease.

                                       36.

<PAGE>

13.5  MORTGAGEE PROTECTION.  In the event of any default on the part of
Landlord, Tenant will give notice by registered mail to any Lender or lessor
under any underlying ground lease who shall have requested, in writing, to
Tenant that it be provided with such notice, and Tenant shall offer such
Lender or lessor a reasonable opportunity to cure the default, including time
to obtain possession of the Leased Premises by power of sale or judicial
foreclosure or other appropriate legal proceedings if reasonably necessary to
effect a cure.

13.6  ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.  Tenant will, following any request by Landlord,
promptly execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate (i)
certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or, if
modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this
Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect, (ii) stating the date to
which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, (iii)
acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults
on the part of Landlord hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any are
claimed, and (iv) certifying such other information about this Lease as may
be reasonably requested by Landlord, its Lender or prospective lenders,
investors or purchasers of the Building or the Property.  Tenant's failure to
execute and deliver such estoppel certificate within ten days after
Landlord's request therefor shall be a material default by Tenant under this
Lease, and Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies available to
Landlord as Landlord would otherwise have in the case of any other material
default by Tenant, including the right to terminate this Lease and sue for
damages proximately caused thereby, it being agreed and understood by Tenant
that Tenant's failure to so deliver such estoppel certificate in a timely
manner could result in Landlord being unable to perform committed obligations
to other third parties which were made by Landlord in reliance upon this
covenant or Tenant.  Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered
pursuant to this paragraph may be relied upon by any Lender or purchaser or
prospective Lender or purchaser of the Building, the Property, or any
interest in them.

13.7  TENANT'S FINANCIAL INFORMATION.  Tenant shall, within ten (10) business
days after Landlord's request therefor, deliver to Landlord a copy of
Tenant's (and any guarantor's) current financial statements (including a
balance sheet, income statement and statement of cash flow, all prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or such other
accounting methodology recommended by Tenant's accounting firm and generally
accepted) and any such other information reasonably requested by Landlord
regarding Tenant's financial condition.  If Tenant is a public corporation,
however Landlord shall not disclose any non-public financial information.
Landlord shall be entitled to disclose such financial statements or other
information to its Lender, to any present or prospective principal of or
investor in Landlord, or to any prospective Lender or purchaser of the
Building, the Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein.  Any such
financial statement or other information which is marked "confidential" or
"company secrets" (or is otherwise similarly marked by Tenant) shall be
confidential and shall not be disclosed by Landlord to any third party except
as specifically provided in this paragraph, unless the same becomes a part of
the public domain without the fault of Landlord.

13.8  TRANSFER BY LANDLORD.  Landlord and its successors in interest shall
have the right to transfer their interest in the Building, the Property, or
any portion thereof at any time and to any person or entity in the event of
any such transfer, the Landlord originally named herein (and in the case of
any subsequent transfer, the transferor), from the date of such transfer, (i)
shall be automatically relieved, without any further act by any person or
entity, or all liability for the performance of the obligations of the
Landlord hereunder which may accrue after the date of such transfer and (ii)
shall be relieved of all liability for the performance of the obligations of
the Landlord hereunder which have accrued before the date of transfer of its
transferee agrees to assume and perform all such prior obligations of the
Landlord hereunder, Tenant shall attorn to any such transferee.  After the
date of any such transfer, the term "Landlord" as used herein shall mean the
transferee of such interest in the Building or the Property.

13.9  FORCE MAJEURE.  The obligations of each of the parties under this Lease
(other than the obligations to pay money) shall be temporarily excused if
such party is prevented or delayed in performing such obligations by reason
of any strikes, lockouts or labor disputes; government restrictions,
regulations, controls, action or inaction; civil commotion; or extraordinary
weather, fire or other acts of God (collectively, "FORCE MAJEURE").

13.10 NOTICES.  Any notice required or desired to be given by a party
regarding this Lease shall be in writing and shall be personally served, or
in lieu of personal service may be given by reputable overnight courier
service, postage prepaid, addressed to the other party as follows:

     (a)  REAL PROPERTY TAXES.  The term "Real Property Tax" or "Real
Property Taxes" shall each mean (i) all taxes, assessments, levies and other
charges of any kind or nature whatsoever, general and special, foreseen and
unforeseen (including all instruments of principal and interest required to
pay any general or special assessments for public improvements and any
increases resulting from reassessments caused by any change in ownership or
new construction), now or hereafter imposed by any governmental or
quasi-governmental authority or special district having the direct or
indirect power to tax or levy assessments, which are levied or assessed for
whatever reason against the Property or any portion thereof, or Landlord's
interest herein, or the fixtures, equipment and other property of Landlord
that is an integral part of the Property and located thereon, or Landlord's
business of owning, leasing or managing the Property or the gross receipts,
income or rentals from the Property, (ii) all charges, levies or fees imposed
by any governmental authority against Landlord by reason of or based upon the
use of or number of parking spaces within the Property, the amount of public
services or public utilities used or consumed (E.G. water, gas, electricity,
sewage or waste water disposal) at the Property, the number of person
employed by tenants of the Property, the size (whether measured in area,
volume, number of tenants or whatever) or the value of the Property, or the
type of use or uses conducted within the Property, and all costs and fees
(including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred by Landlord in contesting any
Real Property Tax and in negotiating with public authorities as to any Real
Property Tax. If, at any time during the Lease Term, the taxation or
assessment of the Property prevailing as of the Effective Date of this Lease
shall be altered so that in lieu of or in addition to any the Real Property
Tax described above there shall be levied, awarded or imposed (whether by
reason of a change in the method of taxation or assessment, creation of a new
tax or charge, or any other cause) an alternate, substitute, or additional
use or charge (i) on the value, size, use or occupancy of the Property or
Landlord's interest therein or (ii) on or measured by the gross receipts,
income or rentals from the Property, or on Landlord's business of owning,
leasing or managing the Property or (iii) computed in any manner with respect
to the operation of the Property, then any such tax or charge, however
designated, shall be included within the meaning of the terms "Real Property
Tax" or "Real Property Taxes" for purposes of this Lease. If any Real
Property Tax is partly based upon property or rents unrelated to the
Property, then only that part of such Real Property Tax that is fairly
allocable to the Property shall be included within the meaning of the terms
"Real Property Tax" or "Real Property Taxes." Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the terms "Real Property Tax" or "Real Property Taxes" shall not include
estate, inheritance, transfer, gifts or franchise taxes of Landlord or the
federal or state income tax imposed on Landlord's income from all sources.

                                      24.

<PAGE>

     (b)  LANDLORD'S INSURANCE COSTS.  The term "Landlord's Insurance Costs"
shall mean the costs to Landlord to carry and maintain the policies of fire
and property damage insurance for the Building and the Property and general
liability and any other insurance required  or permitted to be carried by
Landlord pursuant to Article 9, together with any deductible amounts paid by
Landlord upon the occurrence of any insured casualty or loss; provided,
however, that in the event of an earthquake casualty the deductible for any
repairs or restoration of the Leased Premises or the Building shall be deemed
a capital item and shall be amortized over the useful life of such repair or
restoration, and Tenant shall be responsible for the amortized share thereof
that corresponds to the remaining Lease Term (and any extensions thereof).

     (c)  PROPERTY MAINTENANCE COSTS.  The term "Property Maintenance Costs"
shall mean all costs and expenses (except Landlord's insurance Costs and Real
Property Taxes) paid or incurred by Landlord in protecting, operating,
maintaining, repairing and preserving the Property and all parts thereof,
including without limitation, (i) market rate professional management fees
(not to exceed two percent (2% of gross Rent), (ii) the amortizing portion of
any costs incurred by Landlord in the making of any modifications, alterations
or improvements required by any governmental authority as set forth in
Article 6, which are so amortized during the Lease Term, and (iii) such other
costs as may be paid or incurred with respect to operating, maintaining, and
preserving the Property, such as repairing and resurfacing the exterior
surfaces of the Building (including roofs), repairing and resurfacing paved
areas, repairing and replacing structural parts of the Building, and repairing
and replacing, when necessary, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating
and air conditioning systems serving the Building; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
with respect to items referred to in clause (iii) above that are treated as
capital items under generally accepted accounting principles, the cost of
such capital items (together with interest thereon at the rate Landlord is
or would be required to pay in order to borrow funds to finance the
replacement of any such capital item) shall be amortized over their useful
life in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals, and Tenant
shall be responsible only for such amortized portion thereof that corresponds
to the remaining Lease Term (including any extensions thereof).

     (d)  PROPERTY OPERATING EXPENSES.  The term "Property Operating Expenses"
shall mean and include all Real Property Taxes, plus all Landlord's Insurance
Costs, plus all Property Maintenance Costs.

     (e)  LAW.  The term "Law" shall mean any judicial decisions and any
statute, constitution, ordinance, resolution, regulation, rule, administrative
order, or other requirements of any municipal, county, state, federal, or
other governmental agency or authority having jurisdiction over the parties
to this Lease, the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property, or any of
them, in effect either at the Effective Date of this Lease or at any time
during the Lease Term, including, without limitation, any regulation, order,
or policy of any quasi-official entity or body (e.g. a board of fire examiners
or a public utility or special district).

     (f)  LENDER.  The term "Lender" shall mean the holder of any promissory
note or other evidence or indebtedness secured by the Property or any portion
thereof.

     (g)  PRIVATE RESTRICTIONS.  The term "Private Restrictions" shall mean
(as they may exist from time to time) any and all covenants, conditions and
restrictions, private agreements, easements, and any other recorded documents
or instruments affecting the use of the Property, the Building, the Leased
Premises, or the Outside Areas.

     (h)  RENT.  The term "Rent" shall mean collectively Base Monthly Rent and
all Additional Rent.

13.13  GENERAL WAIVERS.  One party's consent to or approval of any act by the
other party requiring the first party's consent or approval shall not be
deemed to waive or render unnecessary the first party's consent to or
approval of any subsequent similar act by the other party. No waiver of any
provision hereof, or any waiver of any breach of any provision hereof, shall
be effective unless in writing and signed by the waiving party.  The receipt
by Landlord of any rent or payment with or without knowledge of the breach of
any other provision hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of any such breach.
No waiver or any provision of this Lease shall be deemed a continuing waiver
unless such waiver specifically states so in writing and is signed by both
Landlord and Tenant. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or
remedy accruing to either party upon any breach by the other party under this
Lease shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver of any
such breach theretofore or thereafter occurring. The waiver by either party
of any breach of any provision of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a
waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provisions herein
contained.

13.14  MISCELLANEOUS.  Should any provisions of this Lease prove to be invalid
or illegal, such invalidity or illegality shall in no way affect, impair or
invalidate any other provisions hereof, and such remaining provisions shall
remain in full force and effect. Time is of the essence with respect to the
performance of every provision of this Lease in which time of performance is
a factor. Any copy of this Lease which is executed by the parties shall be
deemed an original for all purposes. This Lease shall, subject to the
provisions regarding assignment, apply to and bind the respective heirs,
successors, executors, administrators and assigns of Landlord and Tenant. The
term "party" shall mean Landlord or Tenant

                                       25.

<PAGE>

as the context implies.  If Tenant consists of more than one person or
entity, then all members of Tenant shall be jointly and severally liable
hereunder.  This Lease shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the
Laws of the State in which the Leased Premises are located.  The captions in
this Lease are for convenience only and shall not be construed in the
construction or interpretation of any provision hereof.  When the context of
this Lease requires, the neuter gender includes the masculine, the feminine,
a partnership, corporation, limited liability company, joint venture, or
other form of business entity, and the singular includes the plural.  The
terms "must," "shall," "will," and "agree" are mandatory.  The term "may" is
permissive.  When a party is required to do something by this Lease, it shall
do so at its sole cost and expense without right or reimbursement from the
other party unless specific provision is made therefor.  Where Landlord's
consent is required hereunder, the consent of any Lender may also be
required. Landlord and Tenant shall both be deemed to have drafted this
Lease, and the rule of construction that a document is to be construed
against the drafting party shall not be employed in the construction or
interpretation of this Lease.  Where Tenant is obligated not to perform any
act or is not permitted to perform any act, Tenant is also obligated to
restrain any others reasonably within its control, including agents,
invitees, contractors, subcontractors and employees, from performing such
act.  Landlord shall not become or be deemed a partner or a joint venturer
with Tenant by reason of any of the provisions of this Lease.

                                   ARTICLE 14.
                CORPORATE AUTHORITY, BROKERS AND ENTIRE AGREEMENT

14.1  CORPORATE AUTHORITY.  If Tenant is a corporation, each individual
executing this Lease on behalf of such corporation represents and warrants
that Tenant is validly formed and duly authorized and existing, that Tenant
is qualified to do business in the State in which the Leased Premises are
located, that Tenant has the full right and legal authority to enter into
this Lease, and that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this
Lease on behalf of Tenant in accordance with its terms.  Tenant shall, within
thirty days after execution of this Lease, deliver to Landlord a certified
copy of the resolution of its board of directors authorizing or ratifying the
execution of this Lease and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord at its sole
election may elect to terminate this Lease.

14.2  BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Landlord
has engaged Landlord's Broker (as defined in Article 1 hereof) and that
Tenant has engaged Tenant's Brokers (as defined in Article 1 hereof) in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Lease, that Landlord
shall pay all leasing commissions owing to Landlord's Broker, and that
Landlord's Broker shall share such commissions with Tenant's Broker pursuant
to a separate agreement between Landlord's Broker and Tenant's Brokers.
Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, Tenant represents, warrants
and agrees that it has not had any dealings with any real estate broker(s),
leasing agent(s), finder(s) or salesmen (collectively "Brokers"), other than
the Tenant's Brokers with respect to the lease by Tenant of the Leased
Premises pursuant to this Lease, and that Tenant will assume all obligations
and responsibility with respect to the payment of any such Brokers (other
than Tenant's Brokers and Landlord's Broker), and that Tenant will indemnify,
defend with competent counsel, and hold Landlord harmless from any liability
for the payment of any real estate brokerage commissions, leasing commissions
or finder's fees claimed by any other Brokers to be earned or due and payable
by reason of Tenant's agreement or promise (implied or otherwise) to pay (or
to have Landlord pay) such a commission or finder's fee by reason of its
leasing and the Leased Premises pursuant to this Lease.

14.3  ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  This Lease and the Exhibits (as described in
Article 1), which Exhibits are by this reference incorporated herein,
constitute the entire agreement between the parties, and there are no other
agreements, understandings or representations between the parties relating to
the lease by Landlord of the Leased Premises to Tenant, except as expressed
herein.  No subsequent changes, modifications or additions to this Lease
shall be binding upon the parties unless in writing and signed by both
Landlord and Tenant.

14.4  LANDLORD'S REPRESENTATIONS.  Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord
nor any of its agents made any representations or warranties respecting the
Property, the Building or the Leased Premises, upon which Tenant relied in
entering into the Lease, which are not expressly set forth in this Lease.
Tenant further acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any of its agents made
any representations as to (i) whether the leased Premises may be used for
Tenant's intended use under existing Law, or (ii) the suitability of the
Leased Premises for the conduct of Tenant's business, or (iii) the exact
square footage of the Leased Premises, and that Tenant relies solely upon its
own investigations with respect to such matters.  Tenant expressly waives any
and all claims for damage by reason of any statement, representation,
warranty, promise or other agreement of Landlord or Landlord's agent(s), if
any, not contained in this Lease or in any Exhibit attached hereto.

                                   ARTICLE 15.
                                TELEPHONE SERVICE

      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary.

      (a)    So long as the entirety of the Leased Premises is leased to Tenant:

                                      26.
<PAGE>

           (i)      Landlord shall have no responsibility for providing to
Tenant any telephone equipment, including wiring, within the Leased Premises
or for providing telephone service or connections from the utility to the
Leased Premises; and

          (ii)      Landlord makes no warranty as to the quality, continuity
or availability of the telecommunications services in the Building, and
Tenant hereby waives any claim against Landlord for any actual or
consequential damages (including damages for loss of business) in the event
Tenant's telecommunications services in any way are interrupted, damaged or
rendered less effective, except to the extent caused by the grossly negligent
or willful act or omission by Landlord, its agents or employees. Tenant
accepts the telephone equipment (including, without limitation, the INC, as
defined below) in its "AS-IS" condition, and Tenant shall be solely
responsible for contracting with a reliable third party vendor to assume
responsibility for the maintenance and repair thereof (which contract shall
contain provisions requiring such vendor to inspect the INC periodically (the
frequency of such inspections to be determined by such vendor based on its
experience and professional judgment), and requiring such vendor to meet
local and federal requirements for telecommunications material and
workmanship). Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant and Tenant waives all
claims against Landlord whatsoever, whether for personal injury, property
damage, loss of use of the Leased Premises, or otherwise, due to the
interruption or failure of telephone services to the Leased Premises. Tenant
hereby holds Landlord harmless and agrees to indemnify, protect and defend
Landlord from and against any liability for any damage, loss or expense due
to any failure or interruption of telephone service to the Leased Premises
for any reason. Tenant agrees to obtain loss of rental insurance adequate to
cover any damage, loss or expense occasioned by the interruption of
telephone service.

     (b)  At such time as the entirety of the Leased Premise is no longer
leased to Tenant, Landlord shall in its sole discretion have the right, by
written notice to Tenant, to elect to assume limited responsibility for INC,
as provided below, and upon such assumption of responsibility by Landlord,
this subparagraph (b) shall apply prospectively.

            (i)     Landlord shall provide Tenant access to such quantity of
pairs in the Building intra-building network cable ("INC") as is determined to
be available by Landlord in its reasonable discretion. Tenant's access to the
INC shall be solely by arrangements made by Tenant, as Tenant may elect,
directly with Pacific Bell or Landlord (or such vendor as Landlord may
designate), and Tenant shall pay all reasonable charges as may be imposed in
connection therewith. Pacific Bell's charges shall be deemed to be
reasonable. Subject to the foregoing, Landlord shall have no responsibility
for providing to Tenant any telephone equipment, including wiring, within the
Leased Premises or for providing telephone service or connections from the
utility to the Leased Premises, except as required by law.

           (ii)    Tenant shall not alter, modify, add to or disturb any
telephone wiring in the Leased Premises or elsewhere in the Building without
the Landlord's prior written consent. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for
any damage to the telephone wiring in the Building due to the act, negligent
or otherwise, of Tenant or any employee, contractor or other agent of Tenant.
Tenant shall have no access to the telephone closets within the Building,
except in the manner and under procedures established by Landlord. Tenant
shall promptly notify Landlord of any actual or suspected failure of
telephone service to the Leased Premises.

          (iii)     All costs incurred by Landlord for the installation,
maintenance, repair and replacement of telephone wiring in the Building shall
be a Property Maintenance Cost.

           (iv)     Landlord makes no warranty as to the quality, continuity
or availability of the telecommunications services in the Building, and
Tenant hereby waives any claim against Landlord for any actual or
consequential damages (including damages for loss of business) in the event
Tenant's telecommunications services in any way are interrupted, damaged
or rendered less effective, except to the extent caused by the grossly
negligent or willful act or omission by Landlord, its agents or employees.
Tenant acknowledges that Landlord meets its duty of care to Tenant with
respect to the Building INC by contracting with a reliable third party vendor
to assume responsibility for the maintenance and repair thereof (which
contract shall contain provisions requiring such vendor to inspect the INC
periodically (the frequency of such inspections to be determined by such
vendor based on its experience and professional judgment), and requiring
such vendor to meet local and federal requirements for telecommunications
material and workmanship). Subject to the foregoing, Landlord shall not be
liable to Tenant and Tenant waives all claims against Landlord whatsoever,
whether for personal injury, property damage, loss of use of the Leased
Premises, or otherwise, due to the interruption or failure of telephone
services to the Leased Premises. Tenant hereby holds Landlord harmless and
agrees to indemnify, protect and defend Landlord from and against any
liability for any damage, loss or expense due to any failure or interruption
of telephone service to the Leased Premises for any reason. Tenant agrees to
obtain loss of rental insurance adequate to cover any damage, loss or expense
occasioned by the interruption of telephone service.

                                       27.
