                                                                   -------------

                               AMPEX INCORPORATED

                                       AND

                          DATED AS OF MARCH [   ], 1992

                            INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

          This Agreement is made and entered into as of March [    ], 1992
                                                               ----
("Agreement"), by and between Ampex Incorporated, a Delaware corporation
("Corporation"), and [            ], a director of the Corporation
                      ------------
("Indemnitee"):

          WHEREAS, highly competent persons are becoming more reluctant to serve
corporations as directors or in other capacities unless they are provided with
adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against
inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service
to and activities on behalf of the corporation; and

          WHEREAS, the current impracticability of obtaining adequate insurance
and the uncertainties relating to indemnification have increased the difficulty
of attracting and retaining such persons;

          WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board") has
determined that it desires to have Indemnitee serve as a director of the
Corporation and that the Corporation should act to assure Indemnitee that there
will be increased certainty of such protection in the future; and

          WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Corporation
contractually to obligate itself to indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law and the certificate of incorporation, by-laws and
resolutions of the Corporation so that he will serve the Corporation free from
undue concern that he will not be so indemnified;

          WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of
ARTICLE NINE of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and of ARTICLE VIII of
the By-Laws of the Corporation and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto and
shall

<PAGE>

not be deemed to be a substitute therefor nor to diminish or abrogate any rights
of Indemnitee thereunder; and

          WHEREAS, Indemnitee is willing to serve as a director of the
Corporation and as hereinafter provided on the condition that he be so
indemnified;

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants
contained herein, the Corporation and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as
follows:

     Section 1. Services by Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees to serve as a director
                ----------------------
of the Corporation, and, at its request and on terms to be mutually agreed upon
by the Corporation and Indemnitee, as a director of certain other corporations.
Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from any such position
(subject to any other contractual obligation or any obligation imposed by
operation of law), in which event the Corporation shall have no obligation under
this Agreement to continue Indemnitee in any such position.

     Section 2. Indemnification - General. The Corporation shall indemnify, and
                -------------------------
advance Expenses (as hereinafter defined) to, Indemnitee as provided in this
Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the
certificate of incorporation, by-laws and resolutions of the Corporation in
effect on the date hereof and to such greater extent as applicable law may
thereafter from time to time permit. The rights of Indemnitee provided under the
preceding sentence shall include, but shall not be limited to, the rights set
forth in the other Sections of this Agreement.

     Section 3. Proceedings other than Proceedings by or in the Right of the
                ------------------------------------------------------------
Corporation. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification
-----------
provided in this Section 3 if, by reason of his Corporate Status (as hereinafter
defined), he is, or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened,
pending, or completed Proceeding (as hereinafter defined), other than a
Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation. Pursuant to this Section 3,
Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his
behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein,
if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any
criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.

     Section 4. Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation. Indemnitee
                -------------------------------------------------
shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 4
if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened to be made, a
party to any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding brought by or in the
right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to this
Section, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against Expenses actually and
reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with such Proceeding
if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or

                                        2

<PAGE>

not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect of
any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall have
been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation if applicable law prohibits such
indemnification; provided, however, that, if applicable law so permits,
indemnification against Expenses shall nevertheless be made by the Corporation
in such event if and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State
of Delaware, or the court in which such Proceeding shall have been brought or is
pending, shall determine.

     Section 5. Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly
                ---------------------------------------------------------------
Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent
----------
that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a party to and is
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, he shall be
indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on
his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in
such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more
but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Corporation
shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred
by him or on his behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim,
issue or matter. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the
termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal,
with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such
claim, issue or matter.

     Section 6. Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any
                -----------------------------------------
other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason
of his Corporate Status, a witness in any Proceeding, he shall be indemnified
against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in
connection therewith.

     Section 7. Advancement of Expenses. The Corporation shall advance all
                -----------------------
reasonable Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with
any Proceeding within 20 days after the receipt by the Corporation of a
statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from
time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding.
Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by
Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by an undertaking by
or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately
be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such
Expenses.

     Section 8. Procedure for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification;
                --------------------------------------------------------------
Corporation's Right to Defend.
-----------------------------

               (a) Promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice of the
commencement of any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall, if indemnification in respect
thereof is to be sought from the Corporation under this Agreement, notify the
Corporation of the commencement thereof. To obtain indemnification under this
Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request,
including therein or therewith such

                                        3

<PAGE>

documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is
reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Corporation shall, promptly
upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board of
Directors in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.

               (b) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification
pursuant to the first sentence of Section 8(a) hereof, a determination, if
required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee's entitlement thereto
shall be made in the specific case: (I)(A) by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of Disinterested Directors (as hereinafter
defined), or (B) if a quorum of the Board of Directors consisting of
Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, such quorum of
Disinterested Directors so directs, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion
to the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee or
by the stockholders of the Corporation; or (ii) as provided in Section 9(a) of
this Agreement; and, if it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within 10 days after such
determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity
making such determination with respect to Indemnitee's entitlement to
indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon
reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not
privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably
available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any
costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by
Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such
determination shall be borne by the Corporation (irrespective of the
determination as to Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification) and the
Corporation hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

               (c) In the event the determination of entitlement to
indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 8(b)
hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section
8(c). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board of Directors, and
the Corporation shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him of the
identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. Indemnitee may, within 7 days
after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the
Corporation a written objection to such selection. Such objection may be
asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not
meet the requirements of "Independent Counsel" as defined in Section 17 of this
Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual
basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so
selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is made,
the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless
and until a court has determined that such objection is without merit. Either
the Corporation or Indemnitee may petition the Court of Chancery of the State of
Delaware or other court of competent jurisdiction if the parties have been
unable to agree on such selection within 20 days after submission

                                        4

<PAGE>

by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 8(a)
hereof. Such petition may request a determination whether an objection to a
party's selection is without merit and/or seek the appointment as Independent
Counsel of a person selected by the Court or by such other person as the Court
shall designate. A person so appointed by the Court shall act as Independent
Counsel under Section 8(b) hereof. The Corporation shall pay any and all
reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent
Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to Section 8(b) hereof, and the
Corporation shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the
procedures of this Section 8(c), regardless of the manner in which such
Independent Counsel was selected or appointed. Upon the due commencement of any
judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 10(a)(iii) of this
Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further
responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of
professional conduct then prevailing).

               (d) Except as otherwise provided below, the Corporation will be
entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding of which it has been notified
by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 8(a) of this Agreement, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Corporation to
Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense thereof, the Corporation will
not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ
his own counsel in such action, suit or proceeding but the fees and expenses of
such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its assumption of the
defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (i) the employment
of counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Corporation, (ii) Indemnitee
shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between
the Corporation and Indemnitee in the conduct of such defense, or (iii) the
Corporation shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of
such action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of Indemnitee's
counsel shall be subject to reimbursement in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. The Corporation shall not be entitled to assume Indemnitee's defense
of any action, suit or proceeding brought by the Corporation or as to which
Indemnitee shall have made the conclusion provided for in clause (ii) above.

     Section 9. Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings.
                ----------------------------------------------

               (a) If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under
Section 8 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification shall not have made a determination within 60 days after receipt
by the Corporation of the request therefor, the requisite determination of
entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee
shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by
Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to
make Indemnitee's statement not materially misleading, in connection with the
request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under
applicable law; provided, however, that such 60-day period
                --------  -------

                                        5

<PAGE>

may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional 30 days, if
the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to
entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for
the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating
thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions of this Section
             --------  -------
9(a) shall not apply (iii) if the determination of entitlement to
indemnification is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 8(b) of
this Agreement and if (A) within 15 days after receipt by the Corporation of the
request for such determination the Board of Directors has resolved to submit
such determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an annual
meeting thereof to be held within 75 days after such receipt and such
determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of stockholders is
called within 15 days after such receipt for the purpose of making such
determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within 60 days after having
been so called and such determination is made thereat, or (ii) if the
determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent
Counsel pursuant to Section 8(b) of this Agreement.

               (b) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or
matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of
nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly
---------------
provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee
to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Corporation or, with respect to any criminal
Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
unlawful.

     Section 10. Remedies of Indemnitee.
                 ----------------------

               (a) In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to
Section 8 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant
to Section 7 of this Agreement, (iii) the determination of entitlement to
indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 8(b) of
this Agreement and such determination shall not have been made and delivered in
a written opinion within 90 days after receipt by the Corporation of the request
for indemnification, or (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to
Section 6 of this Agreement within 10 days after receipt by the Corporation of a
written request therefor, or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within
10 days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made pursuant to
Section 8 or 9 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an
adjudication in an appropriate court of the State of Delaware, or in any other
court of competent jurisdiction, of his entitlement to such indemnification or
advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his option, may seek an
award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the
rules of the American Arbitration Association. Indemnitee shall commence such
proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in arbitration within 180

                                        6

<PAGE>

days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such
proceeding pursuant to this Section 10(a). The Corporation shall not oppose
Indemnitee's right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration.

               (b) In the event that a determination shall have been made
pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to
this Section 10 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or
                                                        -------
arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of
that adverse determination.

               (c) If a determination shall have been made or deemed to have
been made pursuant to Section 8 or 9 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification, the Corporation shall be bound by such
determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to
this Section 10, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or
an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee's statement not
materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or
(ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

               (d) The Corporation shall be precluded from asserting in any
judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 10 that
the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and
enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator
that the Corporation is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.

               (e) In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section 10,
seeks a judicial adjudication of or an award in arbitration to enforce his
rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, Indemnitee
shall be entitled to recover from the Corporation, and shall be indemnified by
the Corporation against, any and all expenses (of the types described in the
definition of Expenses in Section 17 of this Agreement) actually and reasonably
incurred by him in such judicial adjudication or arbitration, but only if he
prevails therein. If it shall be determined in said judicial adjudication or
arbitration that Indemnitee is entitled to receive part but not all of the
indemnification or advancement of expenses sought, the expenses incurred by
Indemnitee in connection with such judicial adjudication or arbitration shall be
appropriately prorated.

                 -----------------------------------------------------------

               (a) The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of
Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable
law, the certificate of incorporation or the by-laws of the Corporation, any
agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No
amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or any provision hereof shall
be effective as to Indemnitee with

                                        7

<PAGE>

respect to any action taken or omitted by Indemnitee in his Corporate Status
prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal.

               (b) To the extent that the Corporation maintains an insurance
policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers,
employees, agents or fiduciaries of the Corporation or of any other corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
which such person serves at the request of the Corporation, Indemnitee shall be
covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the
maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer,
employee or agent under such policy or policies.

               (c) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the
Corporation shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the
rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take
all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such
documents as are necessary to enable the Corporation to bring suit to enforce
such rights.

               (d) The Corporation shall not be liable under this Agreement to
make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the
extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any
insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.

other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise which Indemnitee shall have agreed to serve at the request of
the Corporation; or (b) the final termination of all pending Proceedings in
respect of which Indemnitee is granted rights of indemnification or advancement
of expenses hereunder and of any proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to
Section 10 of this Agreement relating thereto. This Agreement shall be binding
upon the Corporation and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the
benefit of Indemnitee and his heirs, executors and administrators.

     Section 13. Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement
                 ------------
shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever:
(a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of
this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section of
this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (b) to the fullest extent
possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each
portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or
unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested

<PAGE>

A. Term. The Term shall commence on the date (the "Commencement Date") which is
the earlier of (i) substantial completion of the Initial Capital Improvements
and the Tenant Improvements, or (ii) May 1, 1996, and terminate on the date
which is the later of (i) ten (10) years from the Commencement Date, or (ii) the
expiration date of the lease, if any, between Landlord and Tenant for the
approximately 60,000 square foot, two-story building contemplated to be built by
Landlord for Tenant north of Broadway ("Build-to Suit Premises"), unless sooner
terminated. In no event, however, will the Term of the Lease be more than
thirteen (13) years. If the Improvements to the Buildings are completed on
different dates, the "Commencement Date" shall be the first date that the
Improvements for any Building(s) are substantially completed. For the purposes
of this Lease, "substantial completion" shall mean that the Initial Capital
Improvements and the Tenant Improvements have been completed in accordance with
the Final Plans and Specifications approved by Landlord and Tenant, subject only
to minor punch-list items, and the City of Redwood City has issued a final
building inspection approval for such Improvements.

B. Delays in Completion. Tenant agrees that if Landlord, for any reason
whatsoever, is unable to substantially complete the Initial Capital Improvements
and the Tenant Improvements on or before May 1, 1996, Landlord shall not be
liable to Tenant for any loss or damage therefrom, nor shall this Lease be void
or voidable. Landlord agrees that, if substantial completion of the Initial
Capital Improvements and the Tenant Improvements is delayed beyond May 1, 1996
for any reason other than delays caused by Tenant, Tenant shall have the right
to continue to occupy the buildings at 2655 Bay Road, 401 Broadway, 565 Broadway
and 595 Broadway until the Initial Capital Improvements and the Tenant
Improvements for the Buildings at 550 Broadway and 1250 Douglas Avenue are
substantially completed, as provided in the Lease dated January 16, 1996 between
Landlord and Tenant for the premises located at 2655 Bay Road, 2755 Bay Road,
401 Broadway, 411 Broadway, 565 Broadway, and 595 Broadway, Redwood City,
California. Upon the establishment of the actual Commencement Date, Landlord and
Tenant shall execute a Commencement Date Memorandum in the form set forth in
EXHIBIT C.

C. Early Entry. Tenant shall be permitted to occupy the Building at 1228 Douglas
Avenue during the construction of the Initial Capital Improvements and the
Tenant Improvements. Tenant's occupancy shall be subject to all of the terms and
conditions of this Lease, except for the payment of Monthly Rent, insurance
premiums and Real Property Taxes, which shall not commence until the Rent
Commencement Date for the Building at 1228 Douglas Avenue. Landlord shall not be
liable to Tenant for any inconvenience to or interference with Tenant's business
that may be caused by the completion of the Initial Capital Improvements and the
Tenant Improvements during Tenant's occupancy of the Building at 1228 Douglas
Avenue. Landlord shall, however, use diligent efforts to minimize any
interference with the conduct of Tenant's business.

D. Early Termination. Tenant shall have a one-time right to terminate this Lease
effective at the end of the sixtieth (60th) month after the Commencement Date
provided that Tenant strictly complies with the following:

(1) Tenant must exercise such right by delivering written notice of exercise to
Landlord on or before the expiration of the forty-eighth (48th) month after the
Commencement Date.

(2) As consideration for such early termination, Tenant shall pay to Landlord,
as Additional Rent, the sum of (a) the then unamortized portion of the
$198,225.00 leasing commission paid to Cornish & Carey Commercial; (b) the then

<PAGE>

unamortized portion of the cost of the Tenant Improvements not to exceed
$1,321,500; and (c) six months of the Monthly Rent (excluding the Additional
Rent) in effect at the time the notice is delivered (collectively, the
"Termination Fee"). Upon determination of the actual cost of the Tenant
Improvements, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a memorandum confirming the
Tenant Improvements cost to be amortized hereunder. The leasing commission and
the cost of the Tenant Improvements shall be fully amortized over ten (10) years
at the Improvement Interest Rate defined in paragraph 5.C. Tenant shall pay
one-half (1/2) of the Termination Fee to Landlord in cash, or at Tenant's option
in the form of an L-C (provided that the L-C is issued by a bank mutually
acceptable to Landlord and Tenant and substantially in the form attached as
EXHIBIT F) upon delivery of Tenant's notice of termination and the remaining
one-half (1/2) of the Termination Fee to Landlord in cash, no later than sixty
(60) days prior to the expiration of the sixtieth (60th) month of the Term. If
Tenant elects to deliver an L-C for the first half of the Termination Fee due to
Landlord, such L-C shall provide that Landlord may draw upon the L-C for the
full amount thereof immediately upon the expiration of the sixtieth (60th) month
of the Tenn.

5.   Rent.

A. Monthly Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in lawful money of the United
States, Monthly Rent in the amount of $112,327.50 per month (subject to
adjustment as provided below), which amount represents the sum of $27,200.00 per
month for the Building at 1228 Douglas Avenue, $27,635.20 per month for the
Building at 1250 Douglas Avenue, and $57,492.30 per month for the Building at
550 Broadway. The actual commencement date for the payment of Monthly Rent with
respect to each of these Buildings may vary and shall be the date (the "Rent
Commencement Date") which is the earlier of (I) the date of substantial
completion of the Initial Capital Improvements and the Tenant Improvements to be
constructed by Landlord for each Building, or (ii) May 1, 1996; provided,
however, that if substantial completion of the Initial Capital Improvements
and/or the Tenant Improvements for any Building(s) has not occurred on or before
May 1, 1996 due to delays caused by Landlord, the Rent Commencement Date for
such Building(s)shall be date of substantial completion of the Initial Capital
Improvements and the Tenant Improvements for such Building(s). If the Term of
this Lease extends beyond the date which is ten (10) years from the Commencement
Date, the Monthly Rent for the eleventh (11th) year of the Term shall be (I)
134% of the initial Monthly Rent for the Premises (i.e., $150,518.85 per month)
if the cumulative increase in the Index from the Commencement Date through the
tenth (10th) year of the Term exceeds thirty-four percent (34%), or (ii) the
Monthly Rent payable during the last month of the tenth (10th) year of the Term,
increased by the percentage increase in the Index over the twelve (12) month
period immediately preceding the commencement of the eleventh (11th) year of the
Term (calculated as provided in paragraph 5.B.) if the cumulative increase in
the Index during such 10-year period is thirty-four percent (34%) or less. At
the commencement of the twelfth (12th) and thirteenth (13th) years of the Term
(if applicable), the Monthly Rent shall be increased by the percentage increase
in the Index, calculated as provided in paragraph 5.B. over the previous 12
month period.

Monthly Rent shall be paid in advance, on the first day of each calendar month,
without abatement, deduction, claim, offset, prior notice or demand except that
the Monthly Rent due for the first month of the Term shall be paid by Tenant on
the date that close of escrow occurs for the purchase of the Project by

<PAGE>

Landlord from Tenant ("Close of Escrow"). Additionally, Tenant shall pay, as and
with the Monthly Rent, the management fee described in paragraph 5.D., and the
monthly cost of insurance premiums required pursuant to paragraph 21.C.

B. Adjustments to Monthly Rent. The Monthly Rent shall be adjusted as of the
first day of the month which is twelve (12) months from the last Rent
Commencement Date and every twelve (12) months thereafter (each, an "Adjustment
Date") by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index, All Urban
Consumers, All Items, published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor
Statistics for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose Metropolitan Area
(1982-84=100) (the "index"). (If, however, the last Rent Commencement Date
occurs at any time after the first day of the calendar month, the first
Adjustment Date shall be the first day of the immediately following calendar
month.) The Index published for the month immediately preceding each Adjustment
Date (the "Current Index") shall be compared with the Index published for the
month immediately preceding the last Rent Commencement Date (the "Beginning
Index"), to determine the percentage increase in the Monthly Rent for the next
twelve (12) months of the Term (the "Current Monthly Rent"). The Monthly Rent
for any such period shall be determined by multiplying the Monthly Rent for the
first twelve (12) months of the Term in the amount of $112,327.50 per month (the
"Initial Monthly Rent") by the ratio of the Current Index to the Beginning
Index; provided, however, that in no event shall the Monthly Rent for any year
increase by more than three percent (3%) over the Monthly Rent for the preceding
year (the "Previous Monthly Rent"). Thus, Current Monthly Rent shall be
determined by the following calculations: Current Monthly Rent = Initial Monthly
Rent x (Current Index O Beginning Index) provided that Current Monthly Rent (2)
Previous Monthly Rent x 103%. If no Index is published for either of the months
set forth above, the Index for the next preceding month shall be used. If the
base of the Index is revised, the Index increases, if any, shall be calculated
with a common base year. If the Index is discontinued or revised, such
governmental index with which it is replaced, with appropriate conversion
factors, shall be the basis of the adjustment.

C. Credit Against Monthly Rent. The Monthly Rent (but not the Additional Rent)
shall be deemed paid as provided below.

(1) Tenant has agreed to pay for the installation of certain Tenant Improvements
and Capital Improvements, as more particularly set forth in EXHIBIT B and
paragraph 10.A., respectively.

(2) All funds paid by Tenant on (a) the Tenant Improvements, up to a maximum of
$1,321,500 and (b) the Initial Capital Improvements and Deferred Capital
Improvements, up to a maximum of $2,498,500 (together called "Improvement
Credits") shall be applied against Monthly Rent as Monthly Rent becomes due;
provided, however, that Tenant shall not be entitled to any Improvement Credits
for any Deferred Capital Improvements that are made after the first two (2)
years of the Term. The estimated budget for the Tenant Improvements and Capital
Improvements is attached as EXHIBIT D to this Lease.

(3) At the end of each calendar month all Improvement Credits paid by Tenant
during that month shall begin to accrue interest ("Interest Credits") at the
Improvement Interest Rate. Interest Credits shall accrue monthly on the
Improvement Credits until the Improvement Credits are applied against Monthly
Rent. Interest Credits shall not accrue interest. The Improvement Interest Rate
shall be the prime or reference rate of Wells Fargo Bank on the date of Close of
Escrow, plus one percent (1%) ("Improvement Interest Rate"), and shall remain
fixed during the Term.

<PAGE>

(4) Landlord shall apply against each Monthly Rent payment coming due, first the
Improvement Credits, until the same are exhausted, then the Interest Credits,
until the same are exhausted.

(5) Landlord shall have the right, at any time, to reimburse Tenant for the
Improvement Credits and Interest Credits that have not been applied against
Monthly Rent, in which case the Improvement Credits shall be reduced by the
amount of Landlord's reimbursement, and the reimbursed Improvement Credits shall
no longer accrue interest.

D. Management Fee. Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly, as Additional Rent, a
management fee equal to one percent (1%) of the Monthly Rent without taking into
account the effect of any Improvement Credits or Interest Credits provided for
in paragraph 5.C.

E. Additional Rent. All monies required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease,
including, without limitation, Real Property Taxes pursuant to paragraph 15,
insurance premiums pursuant to paragraph 21, Capital Improvement costs pursuant
to paragraph 10.A., Tenant Improvement costs pursuant to EXHIBIT B, and the
management fee pursuant to paragraph 5.D. shall be deemed Additional Rent.

F. Prorations. If the Rent Commencement Date for any Building is not the first
(1st) day of a month, or if the termination date of this Lease is not the last
day of a month, a prorated installment of Monthly Rent based on a 30-day month
shall be paid for the fractional month during which the Lease commences or
terminates.

6.   Late Payment Charges.

Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Rent and other
charges provided for under this Lease will cause Landlord to incur costs not
contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely
difficult or impracticable to fix. Therefore, if any installment of Rent or any
other charge due from Tenant is not received by Landlord within ten (10) days
after the date such Rent or other charge is due hereunder, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord an additional sum equal to five percent (5%) of the amount overdue as a
late charge for every month or portion thereof that the Rent or other charges
remain unpaid. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and
reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of the late
payment by Tenant.

Initials:

7.   Security Deposit.

Tenant shall deposit with Landlord upon the Close of Escrow the sum of One
Million Three Hundred Forty-Seven Thousand Nine Hundred Thirty and no/100ths
Dollars ($1,347,930.00) as the Security Deposit for the full and faithful
performance of every provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. At
Tenant's option, for the first twelve (12) months of the Term, the Security
Deposit may be in the form of an irrevocable standby letter of credit ("L-C")

<PAGE>

or a credit to be taken by Landlord against the principal balance due under the
promissory note executed by Landlord in favor of Tenant in connection with
Landlord's acquisition of the Project from Tenant in the original principal
amount of $6,500,000.00 (the "Phase I Purchase Promissory Money Note"). At the
commencement of the thirteenth (13th) month of the Term, Tenant may either
deposit cash or an L-C with Landlord in the amount of the Security Deposit or
instruct Landlord to withhold and retain as the Security Deposit One Million
Three Hundred Forty-Seven Thousand Nine Hundred Thirty and no/100ths Dollars
($1,347,930.00) from the balance due to Tenant under the Phase I Purchase Money
Promissory Note. Nothing herein is intended to, nor shall it be deemed to,
extend the maturity date of the Phase I Purchase Money Promissory Note. Any such
instruction to withhold and retain as the Security Deposit any amounts due to
Tenant under the Phase I Purchase Money Promissory Note shall be given by Tenant
prior to the maturity date of the Phase I Purchase Money Promissory Note.
Following the commencement of the 25th month of the Term, the Security Deposit
shall be reduced to an amount equal to one installment of the then scheduled
Monthly Rent (irrespective of any Improvement Credits and/or Interest Credits to
which Tenant may be entitled under paragraph 5.C., and taking into account any
increases in Monthly Rent provided for in paragraph 5.B.) when all of the
following conditions have been met:

A. Tenant is not then in default under this Lease.

B. Tenant has posted two consecutive calendar years of profit since December 31,
1995, as determined by audited financial statements prepared by independent
certified public accountants.

C. Tenant's ratio of current assets to current liabilities is 1.5 or higher for
two consecutive calendar years after December 31, 1995.

D. Tenant's earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and total
amortization (EBITDA) as a percent of Tenant's revenues is fourteen percent
(14%) or higher for two consecutive calendar years after December 31, 1995.
"Earnings" may include interest income and audited ongoing royalty income (but
shall exclude one-time royalty payments), and shall include appropriate
deductions for Imputed Rent.

E. The ratio of Tenant's earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation
and total amortization (EBITDA) minus capital expenditures (free cash flow) to
Tenant's interest expense is 3.0 or higher for two consecutive calendar years
after December 31, 1995. "Earnings" may include interest income and audited on
going royalty income (but shall exclude one-time royalty payments), and shall
include appropriate deductions for Imputed Rent. Capital expenditures excludes
the cost of Tenant Improvements and Capital Improvements (less any Landlord
reimbursements) made by Tenant under this Lease A sample calculation is attached
as EXHIBIT E to this Lease.

The reduced Security Deposit shall be paid by Tenant in cash or in the form of
an L-C. The balance of any cash deposit then held by Landlord shall be returned
to Tenant within ten (10) business days after notice to Landlord of Tenant's
election.

If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, after the
expiration of any applicable cure or grace periods expressly provided for in
this Lease, Landlord may apply all or any part of the Security Deposit for the
payment of any rent or other sum in default, the repair of such damage to the
Premises or the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become

<PAGE>

obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default or to compensate Landlord for
any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default
to the full extent permitted by law. If Tenant elects to have the Security
Deposit be taken as a credit by Landlord against the principal due under the
Phase I Purchase Money Promissory Note, Landlord shall be entitled to such
credit immediately upon expiration of any applicable cure or grace periods. If
any portion of a cash Security Deposit is so applied, or any portion of an L-C
posted as the Security Deposit, if applicable, is drawn upon by Landlord for
such purposes, Tenant shall either, within ten (10) business days after written
demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore
the Security Deposit to its original amount or deposit a replacement L-C with
Landlord in the amount of the original L-C. If Tenant is not otherwise in
default, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant
within thirty (30) days of termination of the Lease.

If at any time Tenant elects to deposit an L-C as the Security Deposit, the L-C
shall be issued by a bank mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, shall be
issued for a term of at least twelve (12) months and shall be substantially in
the form attached as EXHIBIT F. Tenant shall either replace the expiring L-C
with an L-C in an amount equal to the original L-C or renew the expiring L-C, in
any event no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the term of
the L-C then in effect. If Tenant fails to deposit a replacement L-C or renew
the expiring L-C, Landlord shall have the right to draw upon the expiring L-C
for the full amount thereof. Drawing upon the L-C shall be conditioned upon the
presentation to the issuer of the L-C of a certified statement executed by a
general partner of Landlord that (I) Tenant is in default under the Lease and
Landlord is exercising its right to draw upon so much of the L-C as is necessary
to cure Tenant's default, or (ii) Tenant has not renewed or replaced an expiring
L-C as required by this Lease and Landlord is authorized to draw upon the L-C
prior to its expiration. The L-C shall not be mortgaged, assigned or encumbered
in any manner whatsoever by Tenant without the prior written consent of
Landlord. The use, application or retention of the L-C, or any portion thereof,
by Landlord shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy
provided by this Lease or by law, it being intended that Landlord shall not
first be required to proceed against the L-C, and such use, application or
retention shall not operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord
may otherwise be entitled.

8.   Holding Over.

If Tenant remains in possession of all or any part of the Premises after the
expiration of the Term, with the express or implied consent of Landlord, such
tenancy shall be month-to-month only and shall not constitute a renewal or
extension for any further term. If Tenant remains in possession either with or
without Landlord's consent, Monthly Rent shall be increased to an amount equal
to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Monthly Rent payable during the
last month of the Term, and any other sums due under this Lease shall be payable
in the amount and at the times specified in this Lease. Such month-to-month
tenancy shall be subject to every other term, condition, and covenant contained
herein.

9.   Tenant Improvements.

Landlord agrees to construct the Tenant Improvements pursuant to the terms of
EXHIBIT B.

Tenant ("Tenant's Share of Initial Capital Improvements Costs"); any Initial
Capital Improvements costs in excess of$2,145,400.00 shall be paid by Landlord
without reimbursement by Tenant. If Tenant requests Landlord to construct the
Deferred Capital Improvements during construction of the Initial Capital
Improvements and the Tenant Improvements, the cost of the Deferred Capital
Improvements, up to a maximum of $353,100.00 shall be paid by Tenant ("Tenant's
Share of Deferred Capital Improvement Costs") and any Deferred Capital
Improvements costs in excess of $353,100.00 shall be paid by Landlord without
reimbursement by Tenant. If, however, Tenant elects to defer construction of the
Deferred Capital Improvements until after the date of substantial completion of
the Initial Capital Improvements and the Tenant Improvements, any Deferred
Capital Improvements costs in excess of $353,100.00 shall also be paid by
Tenant. Tenant shall pay Tenant's Share of the Initial Capital Improvements
Costs and Tenant's Share of the Deferred Capital Improvements Costs to Landlord
on a progress payment basis, within ten (10) business days after Tenant's
receipt of an itemized invoice from Landlord indicating the Capital Improvement

construction management fee payable to Landlord equal to two and 5/10ths percent
(2.5%) of the total cost of the Deferred Capital Improvements.

B. Punch-List. Within ten (10) days after completion of the Capital Improvements
and the Tenant Improvements for each Building, Tenant shall conduct a
walk-through inspection of such Building with Landlord and complete a punch-list
of items needing additional work. Other than the items specified in the
punch-list, if any, by taking possession of any Building, Tenant shall be deemed
to have accepted such Building in good, clean and completed condition and
repair, subject to all applicable laws, codes and ordinances. Any damage to the
Premises caused by Tenant's move-in shall be repaired or corrected by Tenant, at
its expense. Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor its Agents have made
any representations or warranties as to the suitability or fitness of the
Premises for the conduct of Tenant's business or for any other purpose, nor has
Landlord or its Agents agreed to undertake any Alterations or construct any
Improvements to the Premises except as expressly provided in this Lease. If
Tenant fails to submit a punch-list to Landlord within such 10-day period, it
shall be deemed that there are no Improvement items needing additional work or
repair. Landlord's contractor shall complete all reasonable

<PAGE>

punch-list items within thirty (30) days after the walk-through inspection or as
soon as practicable thereafter. Upon completion of such punch-list items, Tenant
shall approve such completed items in writing to Landlord. If Tenant fails to
approve such items within fourteen (14) days of completion, such items shall be
deemed approved by Tenant.

11.  Use of the Premises.

A. Tenant's Use. Tenant shall use the Premises for general office, research and
development, light manufacturing, storage, distribution and marketing and any
other use permitted by applicable laws. Tenant shall not use the Premises or
suffer or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any
way conflict with any law, statute, zoning restriction, ordinance or
governmental law, rule, regulation or requirement of public authorities now in
force or which may hereafter be in force, relating to or affecting the
condition, use or occupancy of the Premises. Tenant shall not commit any public
or private nuisance or any other act or thing which might or would disturb the
quiet enjoyment of any other tenant of Landlord or any occupant of nearby

material of any nature whatsoever outside the Buildings, except on a temporary
basis.

B. Hazardous Materials.

(I) Tenant, at its sole cost, shall comply with all laws relating to the
storage, use and disposal of Hazardous Materials (as defined below). If, during
the Term of this Lease, Tenant does store, use or dispose of any Hazardous
Materials, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of any Hazardous Materials
data sheets, hazardous materials management plans ("HMMP"), or other reports or
documentation relating to Hazardous Materials that Tenant is required to file
with the Redwood City Fire Department or any other governmental agency, if
applicable. Such information shall be provided to Landlord (A) within ten (10)
days after Lease execution with respect to any Hazardous Materials that are
currently used, stored or disposed of by Tenant in, on or from the Premises, and
(B) promptly following submission of any such HMMP's or other reports or
documentation to the applicable governmental agency (but in no event later than
five (5) business days after the date of such submission) with respect to any
Hazardous Materials first used, stored or disposed of by Tenant in, on or from
the Premises after the date of this Lease. Additionally, Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord upon Lease execution a comprehensive listing of all Hazardous Materials
currently used, stored or disposed of by Tenant in, on or from the Premises
("Hazardous Materials List"). Tenant shall provide an updated Hazardous
Materials List to Landlord quarterly throughout the Term of this Lease and at
other times within ten (10) business days after Landlord's written request
therefor if a current Hazardous Materials List is required by Landlord's lender
or a prospective lender.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Purchase and Sale
Agreement between Landlord and Tenant for the purchase of the Project by
Landlord, Tenant shall be solely responsible for and shall defend, indemnify and
hold Landlord and its Agents harmless from and against any and all liabilities,
claims, demands, damages and expenses of any kind or nature,

<PAGE>

including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, resulting from, or arising out
of, any Hazardous Materials used, stored, released or disposed of in, on or
about the Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, invitees or
subtenants during the Term of this Lease, including without limitation, any
action, proceeding, claim, demand, suit or proceeding by any governmental
agency, quasi-governmental agency or third party (including, without limitation,
penalties, fines, clean-up costs, mitigation costs and liens) arising from the
use, storage, release or disposal of any such Hazardous Materials in, on or
about the Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, invitees or
subtenants. Tenant shall promptly give Landlord written notice of (A) any
release or suspected release of any Hazardous Materials in, on, under or
adjacent to the Premises of which Tenant has actual knowledge and that Tenant is
required to report to Landlord or any governmental or regulatory agency under
applicable laws, and/or (B) any investigation, claim, demand, lawsuit or other
action by any governmental or regulatory agency or private party involving the
presence or suspected presence of any Hazardous Materials in, on, under or
adjacent to the Premises of which Tenant has actual knowledge. Tenant's
obligations hereunder shall survive the termination of this Lease.

(iii) Tenant's indemnity obligations under paragraph 11.B.(ii) are subject to
the following conditions: (A) Tenant is promptly notified in writing of any such
claim(s); (B) Tenant shall have the right to manage the defense of such claim(s)
and any settlement negotiations, provided, however, that Tenant shall keep
Landlord apprised, on a monthly basis, of the status of any such claims and/or
settlement negotiations, and no action may be taken by Tenant which may
materially and adversely affect Landlord's rights or obligations without
Landlord's consent; (C) Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant in the defense
and/or settlement of such claim(s); and (D) subject to the provisions set forth
in paragraph 11.B.(iv), Tenant shall have the right to direct and manage the
removal, clean-up and/or remediation (collectively, "Remediation") of any
Hazardous Materials which may be required under paragraph 11.B.(ii) so long as
Tenant is not in default hereunder at the time such Remediation is required and
so long as such Remediation is conducted by Tenant in accordance with all
applicable laws and governmental regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, but without being
required to do so, to defend, adjust, settle or compromise any claim,
obligation, debt, demand, suit or judgment naming Landlord as a defendant or
potentially responsible party arising out of or in connection with the matters
covered by Tenant's indemnity and, in such event, Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for all reasonable charges and expenses incurred by Landlord in
connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys' fees; provided, however,
that Landlord shall not undertake any unilateral action or settlement so long as
Tenant or an insurance company, at its or their sole expense, is contesting in
good faith, diligently and with continuity such claim, action, obligation,
demand or suit, and so long as such claim, action, obligation, demand or suit
does not have or threaten to have a material adverse impact on Landlord's
assets, reputation or business affairs and does not, in the reasonable judgment
of the holder of any deed of trust recorded against the Premises, impair or
threaten to impair the value of the security given by Landlord to the holder
under such deed of trust. Tenant acknowledges that the holder of any deed of
trust recorded against the Premises shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to join and participate in any legal proceedings or actions
initiated in connection with any claims covered by Tenant's indemnity if the
holder of such deed of trust has a reasonable basis to believe that its security
under the deed of trust is or might be impaired by such claims or if Landlord is
in default under the terms of the deed of trust.

<PAGE>

(iv) Tenant shall not commence any Remediation of any Hazardous Materials
pursuant to paragraph 11.B.(ii) unless and until (A) Landlord has reasonably
approved the environmental consultant and/or engineering firm that will be
engaged to assess the nature and extent of the Hazardous Materials that are
present and to complete the Remediation of such Hazardous Materials; (B)
Landlord has reasonably approved the scope of work and the proposed methods and
timing for completing such Remediation of such Hazardous Materials; and (C)
Tenant has provided Landlord with documentary evidence that the governmental
agency(ies) with jurisdiction over such matter has/have approved Tenant's
proposed plan for Remediation of such Hazardous Materials. If Landlord fails to
notify Tenant of Landlord's approval or disapproval of Tenant's environmental
consultant and/or engineering firm or Tenant's proposed scope of work and
proposed methods for completing any Remediation, within thirty (30) days after
Landlord's receipt of the above-specified information, Landlord's approval shall
be deemed given. Tenant shall complete such Remediation in a diligent manner, in
compliance with all applicable laws (including any order issued for such
Remediation) and in accordance with applicable governmental standards for such
Remediation. Upon completion of such removal, clean-up or other remediation,
Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copies of any documentation obtained from
any governmental agency(ies) indicating that the required Remediation was
completed and accepted by such agency(ies).

(v) Landlord and Landlord's designated consultants and, in the event of a
default by Landlord under any deed of trust recorded against the Premises, the
holder of such deed of trust and its designated consultants, shall have the
right to enter the Premises at any time in the case of an emergency, and
otherwise at reasonable times with reasonable notice and with reasonable
frequency, for the purpose of verifying compliance by Tenant with all applicable
laws relating to the storage, use or disposal of Hazardous Materials and, in
connection therewith, Landlord or the holder of such deed of trust shall be
entitled to employ experts and/or consultants, at such party's sole expense, to
advise such party with respect to Tenant's installation, operation, use,
monitoring, maintenance, or removal of any Hazardous Materials in, on or from
the Premises. Any parties entering the Premises to verify such compliance by
Tenant as permitted herein shall, at Tenant's request, first execute and deliver
to Tenant a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form attached as
EXHIBIT G. If at any time Landlord obtains a phase I environmental site
assessment of the Premises or the Property which discloses the presence or
possible presence of Hazardous Materials in, on, under or adjacent to the
Premises or the Property, and the report generated by the environmental
consultant as a result of such site assessment recommends that further testing
be conducted on the Premises and/or the Property, including invasive testing of
the soil and groundwater, to determine the nature, location and extent of such
Hazardous Materials, Landlord may cause testing and/or monitoring wells to be
installed on or about the Outside Area and may cause the soil and/or ground
water to be tested to detect the presence of Hazardous Materials by the use of
such tests as are then customarily used for such purposes, provided that
Landlord shall use diligent efforts to minimize any inconvenience or disruption
to Tenant's business in connection with such installation and testing. The cost
of installing, operating and removing any such wells shall bc paid by the party
requesting the same unless Tenant is liable for such costs pursuant to the terms
of Tenant's indemnity under paragraph 11.B.(ii). Landlord shall provide Tenant
with a copy of any final report generated for Landlord by an environmental
consultant in connection with the Premises or the Property. Landlord may,
however, require Tenant to execute a reasonable confidentiality agreement prior
to delivering copies of any such report to Tenant.

<PAGE>

(vi) If at any time Landlord determines that Tenant is not in compliance with
any laws relating to the storage, use or disposal of Hazardous Materials,
Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the specific laws and the provisions
thereof which Landlord believes Tenant has violated. Except in the event of any
emergency, in which event Tenant shall promptly take appropriate action to
correct any violation(s), Tenant shall have thirty (30) days after Landlord's
notice to correct any such violation(s); provided, however, that if Tenant or
Tenant's environmental consultant disagrees with Landlord's determination that a
violation has occurred, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly select an independent
environmental consultant or environmental attorney mutually acceptable to
Landlord and Tenant to review the alleged violation and the determination of
such consultant or attorney shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. The cost
of such consultant or attorney's services shall be shared equally by Landlord
and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant fail to agree on the independent consultant
to be selected for such purposes, the consultant shall be selected in accordance
with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.
Landlord agrees that Landlord shall not notify any governmental or regulatory
agency of any violation by Tenant of any laws relating to the use, storage or
disposal of Hazardous Materials unless (A) Landlord has first notified Tenant in
writing of such violation, and (B) Tenant has failed to notify the appropriate
governmental or regulatory agency(ies) to the extent required by applicable laws
and to provide Landlord with a copy of any such notice(s).

(vii) For the purposes of this Lease, the term "Hazardous Materials" shall mean
any substance, material or waste which is or becomes regulated by any local
government authority, the State of California, or the United States Government,
including, but not limited to, any material or substance which is (a) petroleum,
(b) asbestos, (c), polychlorinated biphenyls, (d) designated as a "hazardous
substance" pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251 et
seq. (33 U.S.C. 1321) or listed pursuant to Section 307 of the Clean Water Act
(33 U.S.C. 1317), (e) defined as a "hazardous waste" pursuant to Section 1004 of
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq. (42 U.S.C.
6903), or (f) defined as a "hazardous substance" pursuant to Section 101 of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C.
9601 et seq. (42 U.S.C. 9601). Nothing contained in this paragraph 11.B. shall
be deemed to require Tenant to comply with any Hazardous Materials requirements
or standards that are stricter than those imposed by applicable governmental or
regulatory agencies.

12.  Quiet Enjoyment.

Landlord covenants that Tenant, upon performing the terms, conditions and
covenants of this Lease, shall have quiet and peaceful possession of the
Premises as against any person claiming the same by, through or under Landlord.

13.  Alterations.

After the Commencement Date, Tenant shall not make or permit any Alterations in,
on or about the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Landlord's
consent shall not be required for any nonstructural Alterations that do not
exceed Twenty-Five Thousand and no/100ths Dollars ($25,000.00) in cost. In no
event, however, shall Tenant make any (i) Alterations to the exterior of the
Buildings or the structural portions of the Buildings, (ii) Alterations to and
penetrations of the roof of the Buildings, and (iii) Alterations visible

<PAGE>

from outside the Buildings, without the prior written consent of Landlord to
which Landlord may withhold Landlord's consent on wholly aesthetic grounds.

All Alterations shall be installed at Tenant's sole expense, in compliance with
all applicable laws, by a licensed contractor, shall be done in a good and
workmanlike manner conforming in quality and design with the Premises existing
as of the Commencement Date, and shall not diminish the value of either the
Buildings or the Premises. All Alterations made by Tenant shall be and become
the property of Landlord upon installation and shall not be deemed Tenant's
Personal Property; provided, however, that Landlord shall notify Tenant upon
Landlord's consent to such Alterations by Landlord (or if Landlord's consent is
not required, upon written request by Tenant) whether Tenant will be required to
remove, at Tenant's expense, such Alterations from the Premises at the
expiration or sooner termination of this Lease and to return the Premises to
their condition as of the Commencement Date of this Lease, normal wear and tear
excepted and subject to the provisions of paragraph 23. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Lease, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the
maintenance and repair of any and all Alterations made by it to the Premises.
Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of Tenant's intention to perform work
on the Premises at least ten (10) days prior to the commencement of such work to
enable Landlord to post and record a Notice of Nonresponsibility or other notice
deemed proper before the commencement of any such work.

Subject to Tenant's receipt of all necessary approvals from the City of Redwood
City, and Landlord's review and approval of plans and specifications, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, Tenant shall have the right to
install a temporary building of approximately 1,000 to 1,500 square feet between
the Building at 1250 Douglas Avenue and the Building at 550 Broadway. The
temporary building shall be installed and maintained by Tenant at its sole
expense. At Landlord's election and upon written request by Landlord, Tenant
shall remove the temporary building from the Premises at the expiration or
sooner termination of this Lease.

14.  Surrender of the Premises.

Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall surrender
the Premises to Landlord in its condition existing as of the Commencement Date,
normal wear and tear and fire or other casualty excepted, with all interior
walls repaired if damaged, all broken, marred or nonconforming acoustical
ceiling tiles replaced, all windows washed, the plumbing and electrical systems
and lighting in good order and repair, including replacement of any burned out
or broken light bulb or ballasts, the HVAC equipment serviced and repaired by a
reputable and licensed service firm, and all floors cleaned, all to the
reasonable satisfaction of Landlord; provided, however, that if Landlord elects
to demolish any Building or Buildings at the expiration of the Term, Tenant
shall not be required to repair or restore such Buildings as otherwise provided
herein. Tenant shall remove from the Premises all of Tenant's Alterations
required to be removed pursuant to paragraph 13, and all Tenant's Personal
Property, and repair any damage and perform any restoration work caused by such
removal. If Tenant fails to remove such Alterations and Tenant's Personal
Property, and such failure continues after the termination of this Lease,
Landlord may retain such Property and all rights of Tenant with respect to it
shall cease, or Landlord may place all or any portion of such Property in public
storage for Tenant's account. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for costs of
removal of any such Alterations and Tenant's Personal Property and storage and
transportation costs of same, and the cost of repairing and restoring the
Premises, together with interest at the Interest Rate from the

<PAGE>

date of expenditure by Landlord. If the Premises are not so surrendered at the
termination of this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord and its Agents
against all loss or liability, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs,
resulting from delay by Tenant in so surrendering the Premises.

Normal wear and tear, for the purposes of this Lease, shall be construed to mean
wear and tear caused to the Premises by a natural aging process which occurs in
spite of prudent application of the best standards for maintenance, repair and
janitorial practices. It is not intended, nor shall it be construed, to include
items of neglected or deferred maintenance which would have or should have been
attended to during the Term of the Lease if the best standards had been applied
to properly maintain and keep the Premises at all times in good condition and
repair.

15.  Real Property Taxes.

A. Payment by Tenant. On or before April 10 and December 10 of each year of the
Term, Tenant shall pay directly to the San Mateo County assessor the Real
Property Taxes for the Property as set forth on the assessor's tax bill for the
Property. Upon completion of the Build-to-Suit-Premises, the Real Property Taxes
payable by Tenant under this Lease shall be a percentage of the Real Property
Taxes payable for the Property, which percentage shall be determined by dividing
the area of the Buildings by the total area of the Buildings and the
Build-to-Suit Premises and multiplying the result by 100. Promptly following
payment of the Real Property Taxes, Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of
paid receipts or other documentary evidence that the Real Property Taxes have
been paid by Tenant. If Tenant fails to pay the Real Property Taxes on or before
April 10 and December 10, respectively, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any penalty
incurred by such late payment. In addition, Tenant shall pay any Real Property
Tax not included within the county tax assessor's tax bill within ten (10) days
after being billed for same by Landlord. The foregoing dates are based on the
dates established by the county as the dates on which Real Property Taxes become
delinquent if not paid. If such delinquency dates change, the dates on which
Tenant must pay the Real Property Taxes for the Property shall be at least ten
(10) days prior to the delinquency dates. Assessments, taxes, fees, levies and
charges may be imposed by governmental agencies for such purposes as fire
protection, street, sidewalk, road, utility construction and maintenance, refuse
removal and for other governmental services which may formerly have been
provided without charge to property owners or occupants. It is the intention of
the parties that all new and increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies and
charges are to be included within the definition of Real Property Taxes for
purposes of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Tenant
shall not be liable for any increase in Real Property Taxes resulting from a
reassessment of the Property in connection with the sale or transfer of the
Property in the following instances: (i) the sale or transfer occurs during the
first five (5) years of the Term and a prior sale or transfer of the Property
(causing an increase in Real Property Taxes) has occurred during such five (5)
year period; or (ii) the sale or transfer occurs during the sixth (6th) through
tenth (10th) years of the Term. Tenant shall, however, be liable for any
increase in Real Property Taxes resulting from a reassessment of the Premises in
connection with the first sale or transfer of the Property that occurs during
the first five (5) years of the Term. If any sale or transfer occurs after the
expiration of the tenth (10th) year of the Term, Tenant shall be liable for only
one-half (1/2) of any increase in Real Property Taxes resulting from a
reassessment of the Property in connection with any such sale or transfer and
the remaining one-half (1/2) of any such increase in Real Property Taxes shall
be paid by

<PAGE>

Landlord. For purposes of this paragraph 15, the "first sale or transfer of the
Property" shall not include the sale of the Project by Tenant to Landlord.

B. Taxes on Tenant Improvements and Personal Property. Tenant shall pay any
increase in Real Property Taxes resulting from any and all Alterations and
Tenant Improvements of any kind whatsoever placed in, on or about the Premises
for the benefit of, at the request of, or by Tenant. Tenant shall pay prior to
delinquency all taxes assessed or levied against Tenant's Personal Property in,
on or about the Premises or elsewhere. When possible, Tenant shall cause its
Personal Property to be assessed and billed separately from the real or Personal
Property of Landlord.

C. Proration. Tenant's liability to pay Real Property Taxes shall be prorated on
the basis of a 365-day year to account for any fractional portion of a fiscal
tax year included at the commencement or expiration of the Term. With respect to
any assessments which may be levied against or upon the Property, or which under
the laws then in force may be evidenced by improvements or other bonds or may be
paid in annual installments, only the amount of such annual installment (with
appropriate proration for any partial year) and interest due thereon shall be
included with the computation of the annual Real Property Taxes levied against
the Property.

16.  Utilities and Services.

Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay promptly all charges for water,
gas, electricity, telephone, refuse pick-up, janitorial service and all other
utilities, materials and services furnished directly to or used by Tenant in, on
or about the Premises during the Term, together with any taxes thereon. Landlord
shall not be liable in damages or otherwise for any failure or interruption of
any utility service or other service furnished to the Premises, except that
resulting from the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord.

17.  Repair and Maintenance.

A. Landlord's Obligations. Landlord shall keep in good order, condition and
repair the structural parts of the Buildings, which structural parts include
only the foundation, subflooring, exterior walls (excluding the interior of all
walls and the exterior and interior of all windows, doors, ceilings, and
plateglass), and the roof structure of the Buildings, except for any damage
thereto caused by the negligence or willful acts or omissions of Tenant or of
Tenant's agents, employees or invitees, or by reason of the failure of Tenant to
perform or comply with any terms of this Lease, or caused by Alterations made by
Tenant or by Tenant's agents, employees or contractors. It is an express
condition precedent to all obligations of Landlord to repair and maintain that
Tenant shall have notified Landlord of the need for such repairs or maintenance.
Tenant waives the provisions of Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil
Code and any similar or successor law regarding Tenant's right to make repairs
and deduct the expenses of such repairs from the Rent due under this Lease.

B. Tenant's Obligations. Tenant shall at all times and at its own expense clean,
keep and maintain in good order, condition and repair every part of the Premises
which is not within Landlord's obligation pursuant to paragraph 17.A. Tenant's
repair and maintenance obligations shall include the roof membranes, all
plumbing and sewage facilities within the Premises, fixtures, interior walls and
ceiling, floors, windows, doors, entrances, plate glass, showcases, skylights,
all electrical facilities and equipment, including lighting

<PAGE>

fixtures, lamps, fans and any exhaust equipment and systems, all mechanical and
HVAC systems, any automatic fire extinguisher equipment within the Buildings,
electrical motors and all other appliances and equipment of every kind and
nature located in, upon or about the Buildings or the Premises. Tenant shall
also maintain the landscaping, parking lots, exterior lighting, signage, and any
other facilities located within the boundaries of the Premises (collectively,
the "Outside Area") in good order, condition and repair, consistent with the
maintenance standards established by Landlord for the balance of the Project. If
at any time Landlord determines that Tenant's repair and maintenance of the
Outside Area is not consistent with the reasonable maintenance standards
established by Landlord for the balance of the Project, Landlord shall notify
Tenant in writing of any such deficiencies. If Tenant fails to cure such
deficiencies within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord's notice,
Landlord shall have the right, on thirty (30) days' written notice to Tenant, to
assume responsibility for the maintenance and repair of the Outside Area. In
such event, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord monthly, as Additional Rent, for the
costs incurred by Landlord to repair and maintain the Outside Area. Tenant shall
also be responsible for all pest control within the Premises. Tenant shall
maintain the HVAC systems in accordance with manufacturer recommendations, which
shall include replacement filters, oiling and lubricating of machinery, parts
replacement, adjustment of drive belts, oil changes and other preventive
maintenance, including annual maintenance of duct work, interior unit drains and
caulking at sheet metal, and recaulking of jacks and vents on an annual basis.
At Tenant's option, Tenant may either obtain HVAC systems preventive maintenance
contracts for such purpose, or utilize Tenant's facilities maintenance personnel
to maintain the HVAC systems provided that Tenant can demonstrate to Landlord's
reasonable satisfaction that any facilities maintenance personnel designated for
such maintenance have sufficient experience to properly maintain the HVAC system
in good operating condition and repair. In either event, Tenant shall have the
benefit of all warranties available to Landlord regarding the equipment in such
HVAC systems. If Tenant elects to maintain the HVAC systems through a preventive
maintenance contract, Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of all HVAC
maintenance reports on a quarterly basis, including copies of contractor
recommendations for repairs and/or replacements. If any reasonable repairs
and/or replacements are recommended by the contractor, Tenant shall perform such
repairs and for replacements and shall provide Landlord with evidence that such
repairs and/or replacements have been completed in accordance with the
contractor's recommendations. If, however, Tenant elects to utilize its
facilities maintenance personnel to maintain the HVAC system, Landlord may, at
Landlord's election, have the HVAC systems inspected by a licensed HVAC
contractor on an annual basis to confirm whether Tenant has maintained the HVAC
systems as required herein. The cost of any such annual inspections shall be
paid by Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice from
Landlord. The HVAC contractor engaged for such purpose shall be selected by
Landlord after receiving competitive bids from at least three (3) licensed HVAC
contractors acceptable to Landlord and Tenant.

C. Compliance with Governmental Regulations. Tenant shall, at its cost, comply
with, including the making by Tenant of any Alteration to the Premises, all
present and future regulations, rules, laws, ordinances, and requirements of all
governmental authorities (including, without limitation state, municipal, county
and federal governments and their departments, bureaus, boards and officials)
arising from Tenant's use or occupancy of, or applicable to, the Premises or in
connection with Tenant's enjoyment of the Premises. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Landlord, and not Tenant, shall be obligated to make any Alterations
to the structural parts of the Buildings maintained by

<PAGE>

Landlord pursuant to paragraph 17.A. that are required to comply with any
present and future regulations, rules, laws, ordinances, and governmental
requirements unless such Alterations to the structural parts of the Buildings
are required solely as a result of any other Alterations to the Buildings made
by Tenant during the Term of this Lease, in which case Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for the cost of any such Alterations to the structural parts of the
Buildings that are required to comply with regulations, rules, laws, ordinances
and governmental requirements.

18.  Liens.

Tenant shall keep the Buildings and the Premises fee from any liens arising out
of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or on
behalf of Tenant and hereby indemnifies and holds Landlord and its Agents
harmless from all liability and cost, including attorneys' fees and costs, in
connection with or arising out of any such lien or claim of lien. Tenant shall
cause any such lien imposed to be released of record by payment or posting of a
proper bond acceptable to Landlord within ten (10) days after written request by
Landlord. Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of Tenant's intention to
perform work on the Premises which might result in any claim of lien at least
ten (10) days prior to the commencement of such work to enable Landlord to post
and record a Notice of Nonresponsibility. If Tenant fails to so remove any such
lien within the prescribed ten 10-day period, then Landlord may do so at
Tenant's expense and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such amounts upon
demand. Such reimbursement shall include all costs incurred by Landlord
including Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees with interest thereon at the
Interest Rate.

19.  Landlord's Right to Enter the Premises.

Tenant shall permit Landlord and its Agents to enter the Premises, including the
Buildings, at all reasonable times with reasonable notice, except for
emergencies in which case no notice shall be required, to inspect the same, to
post Notices of Nonresponsibility and similar notices, and real estate "For
Sale" signs, to show the Premises to interested parties such as prospective
lenders and purchasers, to make necessary repairs, to discharge Tenant's
obligations hereunder when Tenant has failed to do so within a reasonable time
after written notice from Landlord, and at any reasonable time within one
hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the Term, to place upon
the Buildings and the Outside Area ordinary "For Lease" signs and to show the
Premises to prospective tenants. The above rights are subject to reasonable
security regulations of Tenant, and to the requirement that Landlord shall at
all times act in a manner to cause the least possible interference with Tenant's
business.

20.  Signs.

Tenant shall have the exclusive use of the existing "AMPEX" sign located
adjacent to Highway 101. Subject to Tenant obtaining all necessary approvals
from the City of Redwood City and subject to Landlord's review and approval of
plans and specifications for any proposed signage, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, Tenant shall have the right to install Tenant
identification signage on the exterior of the Buildings. Tenant shall have no
right to maintain any Tenant identification sign in any other location in, on or
about the Buildings or the Premises and shall not display or erect any other
Tenant identification sign, display or other advertising material that is
visible from the exterior of the Buildings. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

<PAGE>

Tenant shall be permitted to install directional signs on the Premises, subject
to Landlord's approval of the size, design and location of such signs, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any changes to the size, design,
color or other physical aspects of Tenant's identification sign(s) shall be
subject to the Landlord's prior written approval, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, and any appropriate municipal or other governmental
approvals. The cost of Tenant's sign(s) and their installation, maintenance and
removal shall be Tenant's sole expense. If Tenant fails to maintain its sign(s),
or, if Tenant fails to remove its sign(s) upon termination of this Lease,
Landlord may do so at Tenant's expense and Tenant's reimbursement to Landlord
for such amounts shall be deemed Additional Rent.

21.  Insurance.

A. Indemnification.

(i) Tenant hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and its
Agents from and against any and all damage, loss, liability or expense including
reasonable attorneys' fees and legal costs, suffered directly or by reason of
any claim, suit or judgment brought by or in favor of any person or persons for
damage, loss or expense due to, but not limited to, bodily injury and property
damage sustained by such person or persons which arises out of, is occasioned by
or in any way attributable to the use or occupancy of the Premises or any part
thereof and adjacent areas by Tenant, the acts or omissions of the Tenant, its
agents, employees or any contractors brought onto the Premises by Tenant, except
to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its
Agents. Tenant agrees that the obligations assumed herein shall survive this
Lease. Tenant's obligations under this paragraph 21.A.(i) are subject to the
following conditions: (i) Tenant is promptly notified in writing of any such
claim(s); (ii) Tenant shall have the right to control the defense of such
claim(s) and any settlement negotiations, provided, however, that no action may
be taken by Tenant which may materially and adversely affect Landlord's rights
or obligations without Landlord's consent; and (iii) Landlord shall cooperate
with Tenant in the defense and/or settlement of such claim(s). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, but
without being required to do so, to defend, adjust, settle or compromise any
claim, obligation, debt, demand, suit or judgment against Landlord arising out
of or in connection with the matters covered by the foregoing indemnity and, in
such event, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all reasonable charges and
expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, including reasonable
attorneys' fees; provided, however, that Landlord shall not undertake any
unilateral action or settlement so long as Tenant or an insurance company, at
its or their sole expense, is contesting in good faith, diligently and with
continuity such claim, action, obligation, demand or suit, and so long as such
claim, action, obligation, demand or suit does not have or threaten to have a
material adverse impact on Landlord's assets, reputation or business affairs.

(ii) Landlord hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Tenant from
and against any and all damage, loss, liability or expense, including reasonable
attorneys' fees and legal costs, suffered directly or by reason of any claim,
suit or judgment brought by or in favor of any person or persons for damage,
loss or expense due to, but not limited to, bodily injury and property damage
sustained by such person or persons which arises out of, is occasioned by or in
any way attributable to the acts or omissions of Landlord, its Agents, or any
contractors brought onto the Premises by Landlord except to the extent caused by
the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its agents, employees

<PAGE>

or contractors. Landlord agrees that the obligations assumed herein shall
survive this Lease. Landlord's obligations under this paragraph 21.A.(ii) are
subject to the following conditions: (i) Landlord is promptly notified in
writing of any such claim(s); (ii) Landlord shall have the right to control the
defense of such claim(s) and any settlement negotiations, provided, however,
that no action may be taken by Landlord which may materially and adversely
affect Tenant's rights or obligations without Tenant's consent; and (iii) Tenant
shall cooperate with Landlord in the defense and/or settlement of such claim(s).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, in its sole
discretion, but without being required to do so, to defend, adjust, settle or
compromise any claim, obligation, debt, demand, suit or judgment against
Landlord arising out of or in connection with the matters covered by the
foregoing indemnity and, in such event, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for all
reasonable charges and expenses incurred by Tenant in connection therewith,
including reasonable attorneys' fees; provided, however, that Tenant shall not
undertake any unilateral action or settlement so long as Landlord or an
insurance company, at its or their sole expense, is contesting in good faith,
diligently and with continuity such claim, action, obligation, demand or suit,
and so long as such claim, action, obligation, demand or suit does not have or
threaten to have a material adverse impact on Tenant's assets, reputation or
business affairs.

B. Tenant's Insurance. Tenant agrees to maintain in full force and effect at all
times during the Term, at its own expense, for the protection of Tenant and
Landlord, as their interests may appear, policies of insurance which afford the
following coverages:

(i) Commercial general liability insurance in an amount not less than Three
Million and no/100ths Dollars ($3,000,000.00) combined single limit for both
bodily injury and property damage which includes blanket contractual liability
broad form property damage, personal injury, completed operations, products
liability, and fire damage legal (in an amount not less than Twenty-Five
Thousand and no/100ths Dollars ($25,000.00)), which policy shall name Landlord
and its Agents as additional insureds and shall contain a provision that "the
insurance provided Landlord hereunder shall be primary and non-contributing with
any other insurance available to Landlord with respect to any damage, loss,
liability or expense covered by Tenant's indemnity obligations under paragraph
21.A.(i) of the Lease."

(ii) Causes of loss - special form property insurance (including, without
limitation, vandalism, malicious mischief, inflation endorsement, and sprinkler
leakage endorsement) on Tenant's Personal Property located on or in the
Premises. Such insurance shall be in the full amount of the replacement cost, as
the same may from time to time increase as a result of inflation or otherwise.
As long as this Lease is in effect, the proceeds of such policy shall be used
for the repair and replacement of such items so insured. Landlord shall have no
interest in the insurance proceeds on Tenant's Personal Property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, at its election, to
self-insure with respect to any loss or damage to Tenant's Personal Property.

(iii) Boiler and machinery insurance, including steam pipes, pressure pipes,
condensation return pipes and other pressure vessels and HVAC equipment,
including miscellaneous electrical apparatus, in an amount satisfactory to
Landlord.

C. Premises Insurance. During the Term Landlord shall maintain causes of loss -
special form property insurance (including inflation endorsement, sprinkler

<PAGE>

leakage endorsement, and, at Landlord's option, earthquake and flood coverage)
on the Buildings, excluding coverage of all Tenant's Personal Property located
on or in the Premises, but including the Tenant Improvements. Such insurance
shall also include insurance against loss of rents, including, at Landlord's
option, coverage for earthquake and flood, in an amount equal to the Monthly
Rent and Additional Rent, and any other sums payable under the Lease, for a
period of at least twelve (12) months commencing on the date of loss. Such
insurance shall name Landlord and its Agents as named insureds and include a
lender's loss payable endorsement in favor of Landlord's lender (Form 438 BFU
Endorsement). The deductible payable under any causes of loss - special form
policy of insurance (or its equivalent) maintained by Landlord on the Buildings
shall not exceed $250,000 per occurrence without the prior written consent of
Tenant and, for as long as the Buildings are insured by Landlord under a policy
that covers all of the buildings within the Property and, if applicable, all of
the buildings within the Project, such deductible shall apply in the aggregate
to all of the buildings within the Property and, if applicable, to all of the
buildings within the Project, on a per occurrence basis. Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord monthly, as Additional Rent, for one-twelfth (12th) of the annual cost
of such insurance on the first day of each calendar month of the Term, prorated
for any partial month, or on such other periodic basis as Landlord shall elect.
If the insurance premiums are increased after the Commencement Date due to an
increase in the value of the Buildings or their replacement cost, or due to
Tenant's use of the Premises or any improvements installed by Tenant, Tenant
shall pay such increase within ten (10) days of notice of such increase. If,
however, Landlord elects to maintain a policy or policies of earthquake
insurance on the Buildings, Tenant shall be required to reimburse Landlord for
any premiums allocable to such insurance policies only if Landlord maintains
such insurance coverage on all buildings within the Project and such insurance
is available at commercially reasonable rates.

D. Increased Coverage. Upon demand, Tenant shall provide Landlord, at Tenant's
expense, with such increased amount of existing insurance, and such other
insurance as Landlord or Landlord's lender may reasonably require to afford
Landlord and Landlord's lender adequate protection.

E. Co-Insurer. If, on account of the failure of Tenant to comply with the
foregoing provisions, Landlord is adjudged a co-insurer by its insurance
carrier, then, any loss or damage Landlord shall sustain by reason thereof,
including attorneys' fees and costs, shall be borne by Tenant and shall be
immediately paid by Tenant upon receipt of a bill therefor and evidence of such
loss.

F. Insurance Requirements. All insurance shall be in a form satisfactory to
Landlord and Tenant and shall be carried in companies that have a general policy
holder's rating of not less than "A" and a financial rating of not less than
Class "X" in the most current edition of Best's Insurance Reports; and shall
provide that such policies shall not be subject to material alteration or
cancellation except after at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to
Landlord. The policy or policies, or duly executed certificates for them,
together with satisfactory evidence of payment of the premium thereon shall be
deposited with Landlord prior to the Commencement Date, and upon renewal of such
policies, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the term of
such coverage. If Tenant fails to procure and maintain the insurance required
hereunder, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, order such insurance at
Tenant's expense and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord. Such reimbursement shall
include all costs incurred by Landlord including Landlord's reasonable
attorneys' fees, with interest thereon at the Interest Rate.

<PAGE>

G. Landlord's Disclaimer. Landlord and its Agents shall not be liable for any
loss or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling
plaster, glass, tile or sheetrock, steam, gas, electricity, water or rain which
may leak from any part of the Buildings or from the pipes, appliances or
plumbing works therein or from the roof, street or subsurface, or from any other
cause whatsoever, including loss or reduction in utilities, unless caused by or
due to the sole negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. Landlord and its
Agents shall not be liable for any latent defect in the Premises. Tenant shall
give prompt written notice to Landlord in case of a casualty, accident or repair
needed in the Premises.

22.  Waiver of Subrogation.

Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive all rights of recovery against the other
on account of loss or damage occasioned to such waiving party for its property
or the property of others under its control to the extent that such loss or
damage would be covered by any causes of loss - special form policy of insurance
or its equivalent. The foregoing waiver shall apply notwithstanding, and shall
not be affected by, Tenant's election to self-insure with respect to any loss or
damage to Tenant's Personal Property. Tenant and Landlord shall, upon obtaining
policies of insurance required hereunder, give notice to the insurance carrier
that the foregoing mutual waiver of subrogation is contained in this Lease and
Tenant and Landlord shall cause each insurance policy obtained by such party to
provide that the insurance company waives all right of recovery by way of
subrogation against either Landlord or Tenant in connection with any damage
covered by such policy.

23.  Damage or Destruction.

A. Landlord's Obligation to Rebuild. If all or any part of the Buildings are
damaged or destroyed, Landlord shall promptly and diligently repair the same
unless it has the right to terminate this Lease as provided herein and it elects
to so terminate.

B. Right to Terminate. Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease in
the event any of the following events occur:

(i) Insurance proceeds are not available to pay one hundred percent (100%) of
the cost of such repair, excluding the deductible for which Tenant shall be
responsible;

(ii) The Building(s) cannot, with reasonable diligence, be fully repaired by
Landlord within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the damage or
destruction; or

(iii) The Building(s) cannot be safely repaired because of the presence of
hazardous factors, including, but not limited to, earthquake faults, radiation,
chemical waste and other similar dangers.

If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord may give Tenant written
notice of its election to terminate within thirty (30) days after such damage or
destruction, and this Lease shall terminate fifteen (15) days after the date
Tenant receives such notice and both Landlord and Tenant shall be released of
all further liability under this Lease (except to the extent any provision of
this Lease expressly survives termination). If Landlord elects not to terminate
the Lease, subject to Tenant's termination right set forth below,

<PAGE>

Landlord shall promptly commence the process of obtaining necessary permits and
approvals and repair of the affected Building(s) as soon as practicable, and
this Lease will continue in full force and effect. All insurance proceeds from
insurance under paragraph 21, excluding proceeds for Tenant's Personal Property,
shall be disbursed and paid to Landlord. Tenant shall be required to pay to
Landlord the amount of any deductibles payable in connection with any insured
casualties, unless the casualty was caused by the sole negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord.

Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease with respect to the
Building(s) that is/are damaged, if the affected Building(s) cannot, with
reasonable diligence, be fully repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days
from the date of damage or destruction. The determination of the estimated
repair periods in this paragraph 23 shall be made by an independent, licensed
contractor or engineer within thirty (30) days after such damage or destruction.
Landlord shall deliver written notice of the repair period to Tenant after such
determination has been made and Tenant shall exercise its right to terminate
this Lease, if at all, within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice from
Landlord. Upon such termination both Landlord and Tenant shall be released of
all further liability under this Lease (except to the extent any provision of
this Lease expressly survives termination).

C. Limited Obligation to Repair. Landlord's obligation, should it elect or be
obligated to repair or rebuild, shall be limited to the basic Building(s) and
the Tenant Improvements and shall not include any Alterations made by Tenant.

D. Abatement of Rent. Rent shall be temporarily abated proportionately, during
any period when, by reason of such damage or destruction there is substantial
interference with Tenant's use of the Building(s), having regard to the extent
to which Tenant may be required to discontinue Tenant's use of the Building(s).
Such abatement shall commence upon such damage or destruction and end upon
substantial completion by Landlord of the repair or reconstruction which
Landlord is obligated or undertakes to do. Tenant shall not be entitled to any
compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the Premises,
damage to Tenant's Personal Property or any inconvenience occasioned by such
damage, repair or restoration. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section
1932, Subdivision 2, and Section 1933, Subdivision 4, of the California Civil
Code, and the provisions of any similar law hereinafter enacted.

E. Damage Near End of Term. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if
any Building(s) is/are destroyed or damaged during the last twelve (12) months
of the Term, or during the twelve (12) months following Tenant's notice of early
termination pursuant to paragraph 4.D., and the Building(s) cannot be restored
within thirty (30) days after the date of such damage or destruction, then
either Landlord or Tenant may, at its option, cancel and terminate this Lease as
to the Building(s) destroyed or damaged as of the date of the occurrence of such
damage by delivery of written notice to the other party and, in such event, upon
such termination both Landlord and Tenant shall be released of all further
liability under this Lease (except to the extent any provision of this Lease
expressly survives termination). If neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to
terminate this Lease, the repair of such damage shall be governed by paragraphs
23.A. and 23.B.

24.  Condemnation.

If title to all of the Premises or Buildings or so much thereof is taken for any
public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain

<PAGE>

so that reconstruction of the Building(s) will not, in Landlord's and Tenant's
mutual opinion, result in the Premises being reasonably suitable for Tenant's
continued occupancy for the uses and purposes permitted by this Lease, this
Lease shall terminate as of the date that possession of the Premises or Building
or part thereof be taken and upon such termination both Landlord and Tenant
shall be released of all further liability under this Lease (except to the
extent any provision of this Lease expressly survives termination). A sale by
Landlord to any authority having the power of eminent domain, either under
threat of condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending, shall be
deemed a taking under the power of eminent domain for all purposes of this
paragraph.

If any part of the Premises or Building(s) is taken and the remaining part is
reasonably suitable for Tenant's continued occupancy for the purposes and uses
permitted by this Lease, this Lease shall, as to the part so taken, terminate as
of the date that possession of such part of the Premises or Building(s) is taken
and upon such termination both Landlord and Tenant shall be released of all
further liability under this Lease with respect to that portion of the Premises
or Building(s) that is taken (except to the extent any provision of this Lease
expressly survives termination). The Rent and other sums payable hereunder shall
be reduced in the same proportion that Tenant's use and occupancy of the
Building(s) is reduced. If any portion of the Outside Area is taken, Tenant's
Rent shall be reduced only if such taking materially interferes with Tenant's
use of the Outside Area and then only to the extent that the fair market rental
value of the Premises is diminished by such partial taking. If the parties
disagree as to the amount of Rent reduction, the matter shall be resolved by
arbitration and such arbitration shall comply with and be governed by the
California Arbitration Act, Sections 1280 through 1294.2 of the California Code
of Civil Procedure. Each party hereby waives the provisions of Section 1265.130
of the California Code of Civil Procedure allowing either party to petition the
Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the
Premises.

Landlord and Tenant shall each be entitled to one-half (1/2) of that portion of
the condemnation award that is properly allocable to the value of the leasehold
estate created by this Lease. Except for the foregoing allocation, no award for
any partial or entire taking of the Premises shall be apportioned between
Landlord and Tenant, and Tenant assigns to Landlord its interest in the balance
of any award which may be made for the taking or condemnation of the Premises,
together with any and all rights of Tenant arising in or to the same or any part
thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed, however, to give Landlord any
interest in or require Tenant to assign to Landlord any separate award made to
Tenant for the taking of Tenant's Personal Property, for the interruption of
Tenant's business, or its moving costs, or for the loss of its good will.

25.  Assignment and Subletting.

A. Landlord's Consent. Tenant shall not enter into a Sublet without Landlord's
prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any
attempted or purported Sublet without Landlord's prior written consent shall be
voided and confer no rights upon any third person and, at Landlord's election,
shall terminate this Lease. Each Subtenant shall agree in writing, for the
benefit of Landlord, to assume, to be bound by, and to perform the terms,
conditions and covenants of this Lease to be performed by Tenant.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, Tenant shall not be released from
liability for the performance of each term, condition and covenant of this

<PAGE>

Lease by reason of Landlord's consent to a Sublet unless Landlord specifically
grants such release in writing.

B. Tenant's Notice. If Tenant desires at any time to Sublet one or more entire
Building, Tenant shall first notify Landlord in writing of its desire to do so.
Within thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of Tenant's notice, Landlord
may elect to terminate this Lease with respect to the Building(s) that Tenant
proposes to Sublet. In such event, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good
faith the effective date of such termination and Tenant shall be released of all
further liability under this Lease with respect to the Building(s) for which
this Lease is terminated (except to the extent any provision of this Lease
expressly survives termination).

C. Information to be Furnished. If Landlord elects not to terminate this Lease
with respect to the Building(s) that Tenant desires to Sublet, then Tenant shall
submit in writing to Landlord: (i) the name of the proposed Subtenant; (ii) the
nature of the proposed Subtenant's business to be carried on in the Premises;
(iii) the terms and provisions of the proposed Sublet and a copy of the proposed
Sublet form containing a description of the subject premises; and (iv) such
financial information, including financial statements, as Landlord may
reasonably request concerning the proposed Subtenant.

D. Landlord's Alternatives. At any time within ten (10) days after Landlord's
receipt of the information specified in paragraph 25.C., Landlord may, by
written notice to Tenant, elect: (i) to consent to the Sublet by Tenant; or (ii)
to refuse its consent to the Sublet. If Landlord consents to the Sublet, Tenant
may thereafter enter into a valid Sublet of the Premises or portion thereof,
upon the terms and conditions and with the proposed Subtenant set forth in the
information furnished by Tenant to Landlord, subject, however, at Landlord's
election, to the condition that fifty percent (50%) of any excess of the Subrent
over the Rent required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease less reasonable
attorneys' fees, leasing commissions, tenant improvements and other reasonable
subletting costs paid by Tenant on the Sublet, shall be paid to Landlord.

E. Exempt Sublets. Notwithstanding the above, Landlord's prior written consent
shall not be required for an assignment of this Lease to a subsidiary, affiliate
or parent corporation of Tenant; a corporation into which Tenant merges or
consolidates; or a purchaser of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant
provided that: (i) Tenant gives Landlord prior written notice of the name of any
such assignee, (ii) the assignee assumes, in writing, for the benefit of
Landlord all of Tenant's obligations under the Lease, and (iii) in the case of
an assignment to a purchaser of Tenant's assets, as of the date of the transfer,
the transferee has a tangible net worth (exclusive of good will) greater than or
equal to ten (10) times the net Monthly Rent then payable under the Lease.

F. Proration. If a portion of the Premises is Sublet, the pro rata share of the
Rent attributable to such partial area of Premises shall be determined by
Landlord by dividing the Rent payable to Tenant hereunder by the total square
footage of the Premises and multiplying the resulting quotient (the per square
foot rent) by the number of square feet of the Premises which are Sublet.

26.  Default.

A. Tenant's Default. A default under this Lease by Tenant shall exist if any of
the following occurs:

<PAGE>

(i) If Tenant fails to pay any Rent or any other sum required to be paid
hereunder, including, without limitation, any Tenant Improvement costs or
Capital Improvement costs payable by Tenant under EXIIBIT B and paragraph 10.A.,
respectively, within ten (10) days after the date such Rent or other sum is due;
or

(ii) If Tenant fails to perform any term, covenant or condition of this Lease
except those requiring the payment of money, and Tenant fails to cure such
breach within thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord where such
breach could reasonably be cured within such 30-day period; provided, however,
that where such failure could not reasonably be cured within the 30-day period,
that Tenant shall not be in default if it commences such performance within the
30-day period and diligently thereafter prosecutes the same to completion; or

(iii) If Tenant assigns its assets for the benefit of its creditors; or

(iv) If the sequestration or attachment of or execution on any material part of
Tenant's Personal Property essential to the conduct of Tenant's business occurs,
and Tenant fails to obtain a return or release of such Personal Property within
thirty (30) days thereafter, or prior to sale pursuant to such sequestration,
attachment or levy, whichever is earlier; or

(v) If Tenant abandons the Premises; or

(vi) If a court makes or enters any decree or order other than under the
bankruptcy laws of the United States adjudging Tenant to be insolvent; or
approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization of Tenant; or
directing the winding up or liquidation of Tenant and such decree or order shall
have continued for a period of sixty (60) days.

B. Remedies. Upon a default, Landlord shall have the following remedies, in
addition to all other rights and remedies provided by law or otherwise provided
in this Lease, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative:

(i) Landlord may continue this Lease in full force and effect, and this Lease
shall continue in full force and effect as long as Landlord does not terminate
this Lease, and Landlord shall have the right to collect Rent when due.

(ii) Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises at any
time by giving written notice to that effect, and relet the Premises or any part
thereof. Tenant shall be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs Landlord
incurs in reletting the Premises or any part thereof, including, without
limitation, broker's commissions, expenses of cleaning and redecorating the
Premises required by the reletting and like costs. Reletting may be for a period
shorter or longer than the remaining term of this Lease. No act by Landlord
other than giving written notice of termination to Tenant shall terminate this
Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of
a receiver on Landlord's initiative to protect Landlord's interest under this
Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant's right to possession. On
termination, Landlord has the right to remove all Tenant's Personal Property and
store same at Tenant's cost and to recover from Tenant as damages:

(a) The worth at the time of award of the unpaid Rent and other sums due and
payable which had been earned at the time of termination; plus

<PAGE>

(b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and
other sums due and payable which would have been payable after termination until
the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could
have been reasonably avoided; plus

(c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent and
other sums due and payable for the balance of the Term after the time of award
exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably
avoided; plus

(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the 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 then unamortized cost of
the Tenant Improvements (to the extent that such unamortized cost is not
recovered by Landlord through any amounts awarded to Landlord as the Rent due
for the balance of the Term after the time of award) and any costs or expenses
incurred by Landlord: (i) in retaking possession of the Premises; (ii) in
maintaining, repairing, preserving, restoring, replacing, cleaning, altering or
rehabilitating the Premises or any portion thereof, including such acts for
reletting to a new tenant or tenants; (iii) for leasing commissions; or (iv) for
any other costs necessary or appropriate to relet the Premises; plus

(e) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the
foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of
California.

The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in paragraphs
26.B.(ii)(a) and 26.B.(ii)(b) is computed by allowing interest at the Interest
Rate on the unpaid rent and other sums due and payable from the termination date
through the date of award. The "worth at the time of award" of the amount
referred to in paragraph 26.B.(ii)(c) is 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 (1%). Tenant waives redemption or relief from forfeiture
under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1174 and 1179, or under any
other present or future law, in the event Tenant is evicted or Landlord takes
possession of the Premises by reason of any default of Tenant hereunder.

(iii) Landlord may, with or without terminating this Lease, re-enter the
Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property
may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and
for the account of Tenant. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by
Landlord pursuant to this paragraph shall be construed as an election to
terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to
Tenant.

(iv) This Lease shall not be severable as to any one or more of the Buildings. A
default under this Lease with respect to one Building shall be a default with
respect to all Buildings under this Lease and a termination of this Lease shall
be a termination with respect to each Building.

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

<PAGE>

Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if it shall commence such
performance within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently prosecute the
same to completion. In the event of any default hereunder by Landlord, Tenant
shall have all remedies available to Tenant at law or in equity.

27.  Subordination.

If the holder or holders of any ground or underlying lease, mortgage or deed of
trust which affects the Premises ("Encumbrance") shall require that this Lease
be prior and superior to the lien of such Encumbrance, within fifteen (15) days
of written request of Landlord to Tenant, Tenant shall execute, have
acknowledged and deliver any and all documents or instruments, in the form
presented to Tenant, which Landlord or the holder of such Encumbrance deems
necessary or desirable for such purposes. Provided that the applicable holder of
the Encumbrance executes, acknowledges, and delivers a commercially reasonable
subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement, Landlord shall have the
right to cause this Lease to be and become and remain subject and subordinate to
any and all Encumbrances which are now or may hereafter be executed covering the
Premises or the Property or any renewals, modifications, consolidations,
replacements or extensions thereof, for the full amount of all advances made or
to be made thereunder and without regard to the time or character of such
advances, together with interest thereon and subject to all the terms and
provisions thereof, and within fifteen (15) days after Landlord's written
request, Tenant shall execute any commercially reasonable instruments, releases
or other documents required by Landlord or the holder of the Encumbrance to make
this Lease subordinate to any lien of the Encumbrance. If Tenant fails to do so,
it shall be deemed that this Lease is subordinated. Any instrument describing
such lease or mortgage or deed of trust to which this Lease may be subordinated
shall include, as a condition precedent to Tenant's obligation to execute same,
commercially reasonable nondisturbance provisions to the effect that,
notwithstanding such subordination, the Holder agrees that so long as Tenant
faithfully discharges all obligations on its part to be kept and performed under
this Lease in accordance with its terms, its tenancy will not be affected by any
default under such lease or mortgage or deed of trust, and in the event of
termination of such lease or foreclosure or sale under power of sale or deed in
lieu of sale, or any transfer of Landlord's interest, all rights, benefits,
privileges and remedies of Tenant under this Lease shall remain in effect.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this paragraph, Tenant
hereby attorns and agrees to attorn to any entity purchasing or otherwise
acquiring the Premises at any sale or other proceeding or pursuant to the
exercise of any other rights, powers or remedies under such Encumbrance.

28.  Notices.

Any notice or demand required or desired to be given under this Lease shall be
in writing and shall be personally served or in lieu of personal service may be
given by mail. If given by mail, such notice shall be deemed to have been given
when seventy-two (72) hours have elapsed from the time when such notice was
deposited in the United States mail, registered or certified, and postage
prepaid, addressed to the party to be served. At the date of execution of this
Lease, the addresses of Landlord and Tenant are as set forth in paragraph 1.
After the Commencement Date, the address of Tenant shall be the address of the
Premises. Either party may change its address by giving notice of same in
accordance with this paragraph.

<PAGE>

29.  Attorneys' Fees.

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

30.  Estoppel Certificates.

Tenant shall within fifteen (15) days following written request by Landlord:

(i) Execute and deliver to Landlord any documents, including estoppel
certificates, in the form prepared by Landlord (a) 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 and the date to which the Rent and other charges are paid in
advance, if any, and (b) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant's
knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord, or, if there are
uncured defaults on the part of the Landlord, stating the nature of such uncured
defaults, and (c) evidencing the status of the Lease as may be required either
by a lender making a loan to Landlord to be secured by deed of trust or mortgage
covering the Premises or a purchaser of the Premises from Landlord. Tenant's
failure to deliver an estoppel certificate within fifteen (15) days after
delivery of Landlord's written request therefor shall be conclusive upon Tenant
(a) that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as
may be represented by Landlord, (b) that there are now no uncured defaults in
Landlord's performance and (c) that no Rent has been paid in advance.

If Tenant fails to so deliver a requested estoppel certificate within the
prescribed time it shall be conclusively presumed that this Lease is unmodified
and in full force and effect except as represented by Landlord.

(ii) Deliver to Landlord the current financial statements of Tenant, and
financial statements of the two (2) years prior to the current financial
statements year, with an opinion of a certified public accountant, including a
balance sheet and profit and loss statement for the most recent prior year, all
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied.

31.  Transfer of the Premises by Landlord.

In the event of any conveyance of the Premises and assignment by Landlord of
this Lease, Landlord shall be and is hereby entirely released from all liability
under any and all of its covenants and obligations contained in or derived from
this Lease occurring after the date of such conveyance and assignment and Tenant
agrees to attorn to such transferee provided such transferee assumes Landlord's
obligations under this Lease.

32.  Landlord's Right to Perform Tenant's Covenants.

If Tenant shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any other act on
its part to be made or performed under this Lease, and such failure shall
continue after the expiration of any applicable grace or cure periods provided

<PAGE>

in this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to and without waiving
or releasing Tenant from any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, make such
payment or perform such other act to the extent Landlord may deem desirable, and
in connection therewith, pay expenses and employ counsel. All sums so paid by
Landlord and all penalties, interest and costs in connection therewith shall be
due and payable by Tenant on the next day after any such payment by Landlord,
together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from such date to the date
of payment by Tenant to Landlord, plus collection costs and attorneys' fees.
Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies for the nonpayment thereof as
in the case of default in the payment of Rent.

33.  Tenant's Remedy.

If, as a consequence of a default by Landlord under this Lease, Tenant recovers
a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment shall be satisfied only out of
the proceeds of sale received upon execution of such judgment and levied thereon
against the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Premises and out of
Rent or other income from such property receivable by Landlord or out of
consideration received by Landlord from the sale or other disposition of all or
any part of Landlord's right, title or interest in the Premises, and neither
Landlord nor its agents shall be liable for any deficiency.

34.  Mortgagee Protection.

If Landlord defaults under this Lease, Tenant will notify any beneficiary of a
deed of trust or mortgagee of a mortgage covering the Premises, and offer such
beneficiary or mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure the default, including
time to obtain possession of the Premises by power of sale or a judicial
foreclosure, if such should prove necessary to effect a cure.

35.  Brokers.

Tenant warrants and represents that it has had no dealings with any real estate
broker or agent in connection with the negotiation of this Lease, except for
Cornish and Carey Commercial, which represents both Landlord and Tenant, and
that it knows of no real estate broker or agent who is or might be entitled to a
commission in connection with this Lease.

36.  Acceptance.

This Lease shall only become effective and binding upon full execution hereof by
Landlord and delivery of a signed copy to Tenant. Neither party shall record
this Lease nor a short form memorandum thereof.

37.  Parking.

Tenant shall have the exclusive right to use all parking spaces located within
the boundaries of the Premises, upon terms and conditions, as may from time to
time be reasonably established by Landlord, until such time as Landlord
constructs any buildings on the Property for occupancy by any tenant(s) other
than Tenant. In such event, upon completion of such building(s) the Outside
Area, including the parking areas, shall be converted to common area, available
for the non-exclusive use by Tenant and any other tenant(s) of the Property, and
Tenant shall have nonexclusive right to use Tenant's pro rata share of all
parking spaces located within the boundaries of the Property, but not less than
370 parking spaces. Should parking charges or surcharges of any kind be imposed
on the parking facilities by a governmental agency, Tenant shall reimburse

<PAGE>

Landlord for such charges and/or surcharges or, if possible, shall pay such
charges and/or surcharges directly to the governmental agency and, in such
event, Tenant shall provide Landlord with proof that such charges and/or
surcharges have been paid by Tenant.

covenant, of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or
any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, condition or covenant of
this Lease. The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such
payment. No covenant, term or condition of this Lease shall be deemed to have
been waived by Landlord unless such waiver is in writing signed by Landlord.
