PERIOD                             BASIC RENT
------                             ----------
<S>                                <C>
First Lease Year                   $27,197.10

Third Lease Year                   $28,853.40

Fifth Lease Year                   $30,610.58
</TABLE>

            5.2   ADDITIONAL RENT. In addition to its obligation to pay Basic
Rent as specified in Section 5.1 hereof, Tenant shall be obligated to pay all
taxes, charges, cost and expenses of every kind or nature whatsoever, that
Tenant assumes or agrees to pay hereunder, together with all interest and
penalties that may accrue thereon in the event of Tenant's failure to pay such
amounts when and as due as herein provided, all other damages, costs and
expenses that

                                       4
<PAGE>

Landlord may suffer or incur, and any and all other amounts that may become due,
by reason of any default of Tenant or failure on Tenant's part to comply with
the agreements, terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease on Tenant's part
to be performed, and each or any of them shall be deemed to be additional rent
("ADDITIONAL RENT") and, in the event of nonpayment, Landlord shall have the
rights and remedies herein provided in the case of nonpayment of Rent (as such
term is defined in Section 5.3 below).

            5.3   PAYMENT OF RENT. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in lawful money
of the United States of America and in a timely manner, Basic Rent and all
amounts of Additional Rent properly payable by Tenant to Landlord under this
Lease (collectively, the "RENT"). All payments of Rent shall be made to Landlord
at Landlord's address provided for in this Lease or as otherwise specified by
Landlord in writing to Tenant or as otherwise required. The Basic Rent, adjusted
as herein provided, shall be payable monthly in advance on the first day of each
calendar month. The first monthly installment of Basic Rent due hereunder for
the First Lease Year shall be payable contemporaneously with the execution of
this Lease by Tenant; thereafter, the Basic Rent shall be payable on the first
day of each calendar month beginning on the first day of the second calendar
month of the Term. If the Commencement Date is on a day other than the first day
of a calendar month, or the Termination Date ends on a day other than the last
day of a calendar month, Rent for such beginning or ending month shall be
prorated based upon the number of days in such month occurring during, or before
or after, the Term.

            5.4   DELINQUENT PAYMENT; HANDLING CHARGES. All payments of Rent and
all other charges required of Tenant hereunder not paid within five(5) days
following the date on which it was due, shall bear interest from the sixth (6th)
day after it was due until paid at the rate of ten (10.0%) per annum ("INTEREST
RATE"). In addition, Landlord may charge Tenant a fee equal to one percent
(1.0%) of the amount of each delinquent payment in order to reimburse Landlord
for the cost and inconvenience incurred as a consequence of Tenant's
delinquency. In no event, however, shall the charges permitted under this
Section 5 or elsewhere in this Lease, to the extent they are considered to be
interest under law, exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest. The parties
agree that the amount of such late charge represents a reasonable estimate of
the cost and expense that would be incurred by Landlord in processing each
delinquent payment of Rent by Tenant and that such late charge shall be paid to
Landlord as liquidated damages for each delinquent payment pursuant to
California Civil Code Section 1671, and the payment of such late charge shall
excuse and cure any such monetary default by Tenant under this Lease. The
parties further agree that the payment of late charges and the payment of
interest provided for in this Section are distinct and separate from one another
in that the payment of interest is to compensate Landlord for the use of
Landlord's money by Tenant, while the payment of a late charge is to compensate
Landlord for the additional administrative expense incurred by Landlord in
handling and processing delinquent payments, but excluding attorneys' fees and
costs incurred with respect to such delinquent payments.

            5.5   SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant shall pay to Landlord a security
deposit in the amount of Twenty-Seven Thousand Two Hundred Dollars ($27,200.00)
(the "SECURITY DEPOSIT")

                                       5
<PAGE>

as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of its
obligations under this Lease contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease
by Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate
from its general funds and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest thereon. If
Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including but not
limited to the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, Landlord may, but
shall not be required to, use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security
Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other amount in default, or for the
payment of any other amount that Landlord reasonably expends or incurs or
becomes obligated to spend or incur by reason of Tenant's default or to
compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by
reason of Tenant's default, including without limitation, reasonable costs and
attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord to recover possession of the Premises upon
a default by Tenant hereunder. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used
or applied, Tenant shall, upon demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an
amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount and
Tenant's failure to do so shall constitute a default hereunder by Tenant. Tenant
acknowledges that Landlord has the right to transfer or mortgage its interest in
the Premises and in this Lease, and Tenant agrees that in the event of any such
transfer or mortgage, Landlord shall have the right to transfer or assign the
Security Deposit to the transferee or mortgagee. Upon such transfer or
assignment of the Security Deposit, Landlord shall be deemed released by Tenant
from all liability or obligation for the return of the Security Deposit to the
extent such transferee or mortgage assumes such obligations, and Tenant shall
look solely to such transferee or mortgagee for the return of the Security
Deposit. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this
Lease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall
be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days following the later of expiration
of the Term and surrender of possession of the Premises to Landlord.

deficiency within 15 days after delivery by Landlord to Tenant of the statement.

any kind, general and special, foreseen and unforeseen (including all
installments of principal and interest required to pay any existing or future
general or special assessments, and any increases resulting from reassessments
made in connection with a change in ownership, new construction, or any other
cause), now or later imposed by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority

Tenant to pay any inheritance, estate, succession, transfer, gift, franchise,
income or profit tax or levy that is or may be imposed upon Landlord, its
successors or assigns; provided, however, that if by reason of a change in the
method of taxation, any such tax is imposed in lieu of any existing or increased

provided, that in any case where a tax may be levied, assessed or imposed upon
the Rents paid hereunder for the use and occupancy of the Premises Tenant shall
pay all such amounts.

the Premises, Tenant must first obtain Landlord's written approval of the plans,
specifications and working drawings for such Alterations, which approval
Landlord will not unreasonably withhold or delay; provided, however, Landlord's
prior approval will not be required for any such Alterations which cost less

as long as (i) Tenant delivers to Landlord notice and a copy of any final plans,
specifications and working drawings for any such Alterations at least ten (10)
days prior to commencement of the work thereof, and (ii) the other conditions of
this Lease are satisfied. Landlord's approval of plans, specifications and/or
working drawings for Alterations will not create any responsibility or liability
on the part of Landlord for their completeness, design sufficiency, or
compliance with applicable permits, laws, rules and regulations of governmental
agencies or authorities.

            10.2  CONTRACTORS. Alterations may be made or installed only by

approval Landlord will not unreasonably withhold or delay. Before proceeding
with any Alterations, Tenant agrees to provide Landlord with ten (10) days prior
written notice and Tenant's contractors must obtain and maintain, on behalf of
Tenant and at Tenant's sole cost and expense: (i) all necessary governmental
permits and approvals for the commencement and completion of such Alterations;

and rulings now or hereafter in effect and imposed by any governmental agencies
and authorities which assert jurisdiction; (iv) in such a manner so as not to
interfere with the occupancy of any other tenant in the Building, nor impose any
additional expense upon nor delay Landlord in the maintenance and operation of
the Building; and (v) at such times, in such manner, and subject to such rules
and regulations as Landlord may

                                       13
<PAGE>

from time to time reasonably designate. Upon completion of any Alterations.

built" drawings clearly delineating the Alterations.

            10.4  OWNERSHIP. (a) The Tenant Improvements, including, without
limitation, all affixed sinks, dishwashers, microwave ovens and other fixtures,
and all Alterations will be the property of Landlord and may not be removed by
Tenant and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at the end of
the Term of this Lease; provided, however, Landlord may, by written notice
delivered to Tenant concurrently with Landlord's approval of the final working
drawings for any Alterations, identify those Alterations which Landlord will
require Tenant to remove at the end of the Term of this Lease. Landlord may also
require Tenant to remove Alterations which Landlord did not have the opportunity
to approve as provided in this Section 10. If Landlord requires Tenant to remove
any Alterations, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, agrees to remove the
identified Alterations on or before the expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease and repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal (or, at
Landlord's option, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord all of Landlord's reasonable
costs of such removal and repair).

Tenant at its expense in the Premises (including Tenant's business and trade
fixtures, furniture, movable or portable partitions and movable or portable
equipment, such as telephones, copy machines, computer terminals, refrigerators
and facsimile machines) will be and remain the property of Tenant, and must be
removed by Tenant from the Premises, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, on or
before the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant agrees to
repair any damage caused by such removal at its cost on or before the expiration
or earlier termination of this Lease.

            10.5  CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND OTHER COMPLIANCE COSTS. Landlord's
warranties provided in Section 4.3 and Landlord's obligations set forth in
Section 8.2 hereof do not apply to any Alterations made or to be made by Tenant
and Tenant is solely responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for compliance
with Applicable Requirements including, without limitation, compliance with the

governmental directives arising out of, resulting from or relating to any
Alterations to the Premises made or to be made by Tenant. Additionally, Tenant

            11.1  PARTIAL DESTRUCTION. If the Premises or the Building are
damaged by fire or other casualty to an extent not exceeding fifty percent
(50.0%) of the full replacement cost thereof, and Landlord's contractor
reasonably estimates in a writing delivered to Landlord and Tenant that the
damage thereto may be repaired, reconstructed or restored to substantially its
condition immediately prior to such damage within one hundred eighty (180) days
from the date of such casualty, and Landlord will receive insurance proceeds
sufficient to cover the costs of such repairs, reconstruction and restoration
(including proceeds from Tenant and/or Tenant's insurance

                                       14
<PAGE>

relating to the damage or destructions of the property of Tenant on the Premises
which Tenant is required to deliver to Landlord pursuant to this Lease), then
Landlord agrees to commence and proceed diligently with the work of repair,
reconstruction and restoration and this Lease will continue in full force and
effect.

            11.2  SUBSTANTIAL DESTRUCTION. Any damage or destruction to the
Premises or the Building which Landlord is not obligated to repair pursuant to
Section 11.1 above will be deemed a substantial destruction. In the event of a
substantial destruction, Landlord may elect to either (i) repair, reconstruct
and restore the portion of the Building or the Premises damaged by such
casualty, in which case this Lease will continue in full force and effect,
subject to Tenant's termination right contained in Section 11.4 below; or (ii)
terminate this Lease effective as of the date which is thirty (30) days after
Tenant's receipt of Landlord's election to so terminate.

            11.3  NOTICE. Under any of the conditions of Sections 11.1 or 11.2
above, Landlord agrees to give written notice to Tenant of its intention to

Landlord's contractor estimates that as a result of such damage, Tenant cannot
be given reasonable use of and access to the Premises within two hundred seventy
(270) days after the date of such damage, then Tenant may terminate this Lease
effective upon delivery of written notice to Landlord within ten (10) days after
Landlord delivers notice to Tenant of its election to so repair, reconstruct or
restore.

            11.5  TENANT'S COSTS AND INSURANCE PROCEEDS. In the event of any
damage or destruction of all or any part of the Premises, Tenant agrees to
immediately (i) notify Landlord thereof, and (ii) deliver to Landlord all
property insurance proceeds received by Tenant with respect to the Premises, but
excluding proceeds for Tenant's personal property such as furniture, trade
fixtures, equipment, inventory and other personal property, whether or not this
Lease is terminated as permitted in this Section 11.

            11.6  ABATEMENT OF RENT. In the event of any damage, repair,
reconstruction and/or restoration described in this Section 11, Rent will be
abated or reduced, as the case maybe, from the date of such casualty, in
proportion to the degree to which Tenant's use of the Premises is impaired
during such period of repair until such use is restored. Except for abatement of
Rent as provided hereinabove, Tenant will not be entitled to any compensation or
damages for loss of, or interference with, Tenant's business or use or access of
all or any part of the Premises or for lost profits or any other consequential
damages of any kind or nature, which result from any such damage, repair,
reconstruction or restoration unless such damage is caused by Landlord's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

            11.7  DAMAGE NEAR END OF TERM. Landlord and Tenant shall each have
the right to terminate this Lease if any damage to the Premises occurs during
the last six (6) months of the

<PAGE>

Term of this Lease (unless Tenant has validly exercised its Option to extend the
Term in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof) where Landlord's contractor
reasonably estimates in a writing delivered to Landlord and Tenant that the
repair, reconstruction or restoration of such damage cannot be completed within
sixty (60) days after the date of such casualty. If either party desires to
terminate this Lease under this Section 11.7, it shall provide written notice to
the other party of such election within ten (10) days after receipt of
Landlord's contractor's repair estimates.

            11.8  WAIVER OF TERMINATION RIGHT. Landlord and Tenant agree that
the foregoing provisions of this Section 11 are to govern their respective
rights and obligations in the event of any damage or destruction and supersede
and are in lieu of the provisions of any applicable law, statute, ordinance,
rule, regulation, order or ruling now or hereafter enforce which provide
remedies for damage or destruction of leased premises (including, without
limitation, the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932, Subsection 2,
and Section 1933, Subsection 4 and any successor statute or laws of a similar
nature).

            11.9  TERMINATION. Upon any termination of this Lease under any of
the provisions of this Section 11, the parties will be released without further
obligation to the other from the date possession of the Premises is surrendered
to Landlord except for items which have accrued and are unpaid as of the date of
termination and matters which are to survive any termination of this Lease as
provided in this Lease, including without limitation, and except for the
requirement of Landlord to return Tenant's Security Deposit.

      12.   CONDEMNATION.

            12.1  TOTAL TAKING. If the entire Building or Premises are taken by
right of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof (a "TAKING"), this Lease
shall terminate as of the date of the Taking.

            12.2  PARTIAL TAKING - TENANT'S RIGHTS. If any part of the Building
becomes subject to a Taking and such Taking will prevent Tenant from conducting
its business in the Premises in a manner reasonably comparable to that conducted
immediately before such Taking for a period of more than thirty (30) days, then
Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date of such Taking by giving written
notice to Landlord within sixty (60) days after the Taking, and Rent shall be
apportioned as of the date of such Taking. If Tenant does not terminate this
Lease, then Rent shall be abated on a reasonable basis as to that portion of the
Premises rendered unrentable by the Taking.

            12.3  PARTIAL TAKING - LANDLORD'S RIGHTS. If any material portion,
but less than all, of the Building becomes subject to a Taking, or if Landlord
is required to pay any of the proceeds received for a Taking to Landlord's
Mortgagee, then Landlord may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice
thereof to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such Taking, and Rent shall be
apportioned as of the date of such Taking. If Landlord does not so terminate
this Lease, then this Lease shall continue, but if any portion of the Premises
has been taken, Rent shall abate

                                       16
<PAGE>

as provided in the last sentence of Section 13(b) hereof. Tenant hereby waives
any and all rights that it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of

            12.4  AWARD. If any Taking occurs, Landlord shall receive the entire
award or other compensation with respect to the Premises, the land on which the
Building is situated, the Building, and all other improvements taken. Tenant may
separately pursue a claim (to the extent such claim will not reduce Landlord's
award) against the condemnor for the value of Tenant's personal property that
Tenant is entitled to remove under this Lease, and for moving costs and loss of
business.

            12.4  RESTORATION. In the event of a partial taking that does not
result in a cancellation and termination of this Lease, Landlord shall have no
obligation nor responsibility to restore the remainder of the Building and
improvements on the Premises to a complete, independent and self- contained
architectural unit.

            12.5  NO COST TO LANDLORD. In no event shall Landlord be obligated
nor liable to incur any cost or expense in connection with any condemnation or
taking or restoration consequent thereto.

      13.   ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

            13.1  RESTRICTION OF TRANSFER. Tenant shall not have the right to
assign or encumber this Lease or any interest herein or sublet the Premises or
any part thereof, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises by any party
other than Tenant (any such assignment, encumbrance, sublease or the like will
sometimes be referred to as a "TRANSFER"), without the prior written consent of
Landlord.

            13.2  TRANSFER NOTICE. If Tenant desires to effect a Transfer, then
at least thirty (30)days prior to the date when Tenant desires the Transfer to
be effective (the "TRANSFER DATE"), Tenant agrees to give Landlord a notice (the
"TRANSFER NOTICE"), stating the name, address and business of the proposed
assignee, sublessee or other transferee (sometimes referred to hereinafter as
"TRANSFEREE"), reasonable information (including references) concerning the
character, ownership, and financial condition of the proposed Transferee, the
Transfer Date, any ownership or commercial relationship between Tenant and the
proposed Transferee, and the consideration and all other material terms and
conditions of the proposed Transfer, all in such detail as Landlord may
reasonably require.

            13.3  LANDLORD'S OPTIONS. Within fifteen (15) days of Landlord's
receipt of the Transfer Notice, and any additional information reasonably
requested by Landlord concerning the proposed Transfer, Landlord will elect to
do one of the following (i) consent to the proposed Transfer; or (ii) refuse
such consent, on reasonable grounds. The failure of Landlord to refuse such
consent within the fifteen (15) day period will constitute Landlord's acceptance
and consent to the Transfer.

                                       17
<PAGE>

            13.4  ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS. A condition to any Landlord approval of
a Transfer of this Lease will be the delivery to Landlord of a true copy of the
fully executed instrument of assignment, sublease, transfer or hypothecation,
and, in the case of an assignment, the delivery to Landlord of an agreement
executed by the Transferee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord, whereby the Transferee assumes and agrees to be bound by all of the
terms and provisions of this Lease and to perform all of the obligations of
Tenant hereunder. Any such sublease must provide that it is subject and
subordinate to this Lease and to all mortgages; that Landlord may enforce the
provisions of the sublease, including collection of Rent; that in the event of
termination of this Lease for any reason, including without limitation a
voluntary surrender by Tenant, or in the event of any reentry or repossession of
the Premises by Landlord, Landlord may, at its option, either (i) terminate the
sublease, or (ii) take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as
Sublessor, under such sublease, in which case such sublessee will attorn to
Landlord, but that nevertheless Landlord will not (1) be liable for any previous
act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (2) be subject to any defense or
offset previously accrued in favor of the sublessee against Tenant, or (3) be
bound by any previous modification of any sublease made without Landlord's
written consent, or by any previous prepayment by sublessee of more than one
month's rent.

            13.5  EXCESS RENT. If Landlord consents to any Transfer of this
Lease, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, one half (1/2) of
rent payable to or for the benefit of Tenant in excess of the Basic Rent then
fairly allocable to the portion of the Premises which is assigned or subleased
based on square footage, as and when such sums are due and payable to Tenant.

            13.6  NO RELEASE. No Transfer will release Tenant of Tenant's
obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the
rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder.
Landlord may require that any Transferee remit directly to Landlord on a monthly
basis, that portion of all monies due Tenant by said Transferee that equal the
Basic Rent then in effect under this Lease. However, the acceptance of rent by
Landlord from any other person will not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of
any provision hereof. In the event of default by any Transferee of Tenant or any
successor of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may
proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies
against such Transferee or successor.

            13.7  ADMINISTRATIVE AND ATTORNEYS' FEES. If Tenant effects a
Transfer then, upon demand, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord a non-refundable
administrative fee of Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250.00), plus any reasonable
attorneys' and paralegal fees incurred by Landlord in connection with such
Transfer or request for consent (whether attributable to Landlord's in-house
attorneys or paralegals or otherwise) not to exceed Two Hundred Dollars
($200.00) for each one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of area contained
within the Premises or portion thereof to be assigned or sublet.

      14.   SUBORDINATION, QUIET ENJOYMENT AND NON-DISTURBANCE

            14.1  SUBORDINATION. Without the necessity of any additional
document being

                                       18
<PAGE>

executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, and at the
election of Landlord or any mortgagee or beneficiary with a deed of trust
encumbering the Building and/or the Property, or any lessor of a ground or
underlying lease with respect to the Building or the Property, this Lease will
be subject and subordinate at all times to: (i) all ground leases or underlying
leases which may now exist or hereafter be executed affecting the Building or
the Property; and(ii) the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust which may now
exist or hereafter be executed for which the Building, the Property or any
leases thereof, or Landlord's interest and estate in any of said items, is
specified as security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord reserves the
right to subordinate any such ground leases or underlying leases or any such
liens to this Lease. Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, upon
demand by Landlord and in the form reasonably required by Landlord, any
additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease and
Tenant's attornment agreement with respect to any such ground lease or
underlying leases or the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust. If Tenant
fails to sign and return any such documents within thirty (30) days of receipt,
Tenant will be in default hereunder.

            14.2  QUITE ENJOYMENT. Landlord covenants and agrees with Tenant
that upon Tenant paying the Rent required under this Lease and paying all other
charges and performing all of the covenants and provisions on Tenant's part to
be observed and performed under this Lease, Tenant may peaceably and quietly
have, hold and enjoy the Premises in accordance with this Lease without
hindrance or molestation by Landlord or its employees or agents.

            14.3  NON DISTURBANCE. If any ground lease or underlying lease
referred to in Section 14.1 above terminates for any reason or any mortgage or
deed of trust referred to in Section 14.1 above is foreclosed or a conveyance in
lieu of foreclosure is made for any reason, at the election of Landlord's
successor in interest, Tenant agrees to attorn to and become the tenant of such
successor in which event Tenant's right to possession of the Premises will not
be disturbed as long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease. With respect
to any security devices or instruments entered into by Landlord and any third
party, Tenant's subordination of this Lease in Section 14.1 above, shall be
subject to Tenant's receipt of a non disturbance agreement from such third party
(i.e. lender) that Tenant's possession including the Options, will not be
disturbed so long as Tenant is not default of this Lease. Landlord will obtain
such non disturbance agreement from any such third party regarding any recent
device or instrument entered into after the Effective Date and shall use its
best efforts to obtain such non disturbance agreement regarding any security
device or instrument entered into prior to the Effective Date and in effect on
the Effective Date.

      15.   LANDLORD NOT LIABLE FOR INJURY OR DAMAGE. Tenant is and shall be in
exclusive control and possession of the Premises as provided herein, and
Landlord shall not in any event whatsoever be liable for any injury or damage to
any property or to any person happening on or about the Premises, nor for any
injury or damage to any property of Tenant, or of any other person contained
therein, other than for such injury or damage resulting from the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of Landlord, its employees, or agents. The
provisions hereof permitting Landlord to enter and inspect the Premises are made
for the purpose of enabling

                                       19
<PAGE>

Landlord to be informed as to whether Tenant is complying with the agreements,
terms, covenants and conditions hereof, and to do such acts as Tenant shall fail
to do.

      16.   LANDLORD ACCESS TO PREMISES. Tenant shall permit Landlord or its
agents to enter the Premises at all reasonable hours, upon reasonable notice,
for the purpose of inspecting, or curing defaults of Tenant in accordance with
the agreements, terms, covenants and conditions hereof and at any time in the
event of an emergency regarding the Property or any portion thereof.

      17.   PARKING.

            (a)   GRANT OF PARKING RIGHTS. So long as this Lease is in effect,
Landlord grants to Tenant and Tenant's Authorized Users (as defined below) a
license to use __ unreserved and __ reserved spaces located within the parking
area(s), which serve the Building. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Paragraph 17 and the Rules and Regulations regarding parking as may be adopted
by Landlord from time to time. Tenant agrees to submit to Landlord or, at
Landlord's election, directly to Landlord's parking operator with a copy to
Landlord, written notice in a form reasonably specified by Landlord containing
the names, home and office addresses and telephone numbers of those persons who
are authorized by Tenant to use Tenant's parking permits on a monthly basis
("TENANT'S AUTHORIZED USERS") and shall use its best efforts to identify each
vehicle of Tenant's Authorized Users by make, model and license number. Tenant
agrees to deliver such notice prior to the beginning of the Term of this Lease
and to periodically update such notice as well as upon specific request by
Landlord or Landlord's parking operator to reflect changes to Tenant's
Authorized Users or their vehicles.

            (b)   VISITOR PARKING. So long as this Lease is in effect, Tenant's
visitors and guests will be entitled to use those specific parking areas which
are designated for short term visitor parking and which are located within the
parking area(s) which serve the Building. Visitor parking will be made available
at a charge to Tenant's visitors and guests, with the rate being established by
Landlord in its discretion from time to time. Tenant, at its sole cost and
expense, may elect to validate such parking for its visitors and guests. All
such visitor parking will be on a non-exclusive, in common basis with all other
visitors and guests of the Property.

            (c)   USE OF PARKING PERMITS. Tenant will not use or allow any of
Tenant's Authorized Users to use any parking permits or spaces which have been
specifically assigned by Landlord to other tenants or occupants or for other
uses such as visitor parking or which have been designated by any governmental
entity as being restricted to certain uses. Tenant will not be entitled to
increase or reduce its parking privileges applicable to the Premises during the
Term of the Lease except as allocated to it under the terms of the Lease, Tenant
must notify Landlord in writing of such desire and Landlord will have the right,
in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) approve such requested
increase in the number of parking permits allocated to Tenant (with an
appropriate increase to the additional rent payable by Tenant for such
additional permits based on the then prevailing parking rates), (b) approve such
requested decrease in the number of parking permits allocated to Tenant (with an
appropriate reduction in the additional rent payable by Tenant for such
eliminated parking permits based on the then prevailing parking rates), or (c)

                                       20
<PAGE>

disapprove such requested increase or decrease in the number of parking permits
allocated to Tenant. Promptly following receipt of Tenant's written request,
Landlord will provide Tenant with written notice of its decision including a
statement of any adjustments to the additional rent payable by Tenant for
parking under the Lease, if applicable.

            (d)   GENERAL PROVISIONS: Except as otherwise expressly set forth in
this Lease, Landlord reserves the right to set and increase monthly fees and/or
daily and hourly rates for parking privileges from time to time during the Term
of the Lease. Landlord may assign any unreserved and unassigned parking permits
and/or make all or any portion of such spaces reserved, if Landlord reasonably
determines that it is necessary for orderly and efficient parking or for any
other reasonable reason. Failure to pay the rent for any particular parking
permits or spaces or failure to comply with any terms and conditions of this
Lease applicable to parking may be treated by Landlord as a default under this
Lease and, in addition to all other remedies available to Landlord under the
Lease, at law or in equity, Landlord may elect to recapture such parking permits
for the balance of the Term of this Lease if Tenant does not cure such failure
within the applicable cure period set forth in this Lease. In such event, Tenant
and Tenant's Authorized Users will be deemed visitors for purposes of parking
space use and will be entitled to use only those parking areas specifically
designated for visitor parking subject to all provisions of this Lease
applicable to such visitor parking use. Except in connection with an assignment
or sublease expressly permitted under the terms of this Lease, Tenant's parking
rights and privileges described herein are personal to Tenant and may not be
assigned or transferred, or otherwise conveyed, without Landlord's prior written
consent, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute
discretion. In any event, under no circumstances may Tenant's parking rights and
privileges be transferred, assigned or otherwise conveyed separate and apart
from Tenant's interest in this Lease.

            (e)   COOPERATION WITH TRAFFIC MITIGATION MEASURES: Tenant agrees to
use its reasonable, good faith efforts to cooperate in traffic mitigation
programs which may be undertaken by Landlord independently, or in cooperation
with local municipalities or governmental agencies or other property owners in
the vicinity of the Building. Such programs may include, but will not be limited
to, carpools, vanpools and other ridesharing programs, public and private
transit, flexible work hours, preferential assigned parking programs and
programs to coordinate tenants within the Property with existing or proposed
traffic mitigation programs.

            (f)   PARKING RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant and Tenant's Authorized
Users shall comply with all rules and regulations regarding parking and Tenant
agrees to cause its employees, subtenants, assignees, contractors, suppliers,
customers and invites to comply with such rules and regulations as Landlord may
from time to time adopt and/or modify for the parking facilities as it deems
reasonably necessary for the operation of the parking facilities.

      18.   WAIVER. The failure of Landlord to insist upon a strict performance
of any of the agreements, terms, covenants and conditions hereof shall not be
deemed a waiver of any rights or remedies that Landlord may have and shall not
be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default in any of such
agreements, terms, covenants and conditions.

                                       21
<PAGE>

DEFAULT"):

            19.1  PAYMENT DEFAULT. The failure by Tenant to pay Rent or make any
other payment required to be made by Tenant under this Lease as and when due

            19.4  OTHER DEFAULTS. The failure by Tenant to observe or perform
any other provision of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, where
such failure continues for thirty (30) days after notice thereof by Landlord to
Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of such default is such that the
same cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall
not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall within such period commence such
cure and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion; and

            19.5  INSOLVENCY. Any action taken by or against Tenant pursuant to
any statute pertaining to bankruptcy or insolvency or the reorganization of
Tenant (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is
dismissed within ninety (90) days); the making by Tenant of any general
assignment for the benefit of creditors; the appointment of a trustee or
receiver to take possession of all or any portion of Tenant's assets located at
the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not
restored to Tenant within ninety (90) days; or the attachment, execution, or
other judicial seizure of all or any portion of Tenant's assets located at the
Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not
discharged within ninety (90) days.

      20.   LANDLORD'S REMEDIES. If any Event of Default shall occur, then, in
addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Landlord
hereunder or by law or equity, Landlord shall have the immediate right to take
any of the following actions, each and all of which shall be cumulative and
non-exclusive:

            20.1  TERMINATION. Terminate this Lease by giving written notice to
Tenant of such election to terminate, in which event Tenant shall immediately
surrender the Premises to Landlord. If Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may,
without prejudice to any other remedy that it may have for possession or
arrearages in Rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or
remove Tenant and any other person(s) who may be occupying the Premises or any
part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim or damages
therefor by summary

                                       22
<PAGE>

proceedings, unlawful detainer, or ejectment, and Landlord may recover from
Tenant the following:

            (a)   The worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent that has
been earned at the time of such termination; plus

            (b)   The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the
unpaid Rent that would have been earned after termination until the time of
award exceeds the amount of such rental 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 for the balance of the Term of the Lease after the time of award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided; plus

            (d)   Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the
detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations
under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to
result therefrom, specifically including, but not limited to, brokerage
commissions, advertising expenses, attorneys' fees and costs incurred in
connection with any aspect of Tenant's breach, including with respect to
re-leasing the Premises or portions thereof, expenses of remodeling the Premises
or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether for the same or a different
use, and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant; and

            (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 applicable
law.

      The term "RENT" as used in this Section and as defined in Section 5.1
hereof shall be deemed to be and to mean all amounts of every nature required to
be paid by Tenant, pursuant to the terms of this Lease, whether to Landlord or
to others. As used above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by
allowing interest at the Interest Rate set forth in Section 5.4 of this Lease,
but in no case greater than the maximum amount of interest permitted by law. As
used in Section 20.1(c) above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be
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%).

            20.2  ENFORCEMENT OF LEASE. If Landlord elects to terminate this
Lease as a result of Tenant's default, then on the expiration of the time stated
in Landlord's written notice to Tenant given pursuant to Section 20.1 hereof,
this Lease and the Term hereof, as well as all of the right, title and interest
of Tenant hereunder, shall wholly cease and expire and become void in the same
manner and with the same force and effect as if the date fixed at such notice
were the date herein specified for expiration of the Term of this Lease.
Thereupon, Tenant shall immediately quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord,
and Landlord may enter into and repossess the Premises by summary proceedings,
unlawful detainer, or ejectment, and remove all occupants thereof and, at
Landlord's option, any property therein without being liable for any damages

                                       23
<PAGE>

therefor.

            20.3  CONTINUATION OF LEASE AND RECOVERY OF RENT. If an Event of
Default shall occur, then in addition to all other rights and remedies to which
Landlord may be entitled under this Lease or pursuant to applicable law or
equity, Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code
Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee's breach and
abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to
sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if
Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as a result of any default by
Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce
all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover
from Tenant all Rent as it becomes due and payable.

            20.4  SUBLESSEES OF TENANT. Whether or not Landlord elects to
terminate this Lease as a result of any default by Tenant, as set forth in this
Section 20, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all leases,
licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered
into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord's sole and
absolute discretion, succeed to Tenant's interest in such Leases, licenses,
concessions or arrangements. In the event of Landlord's election to succeed to
Tenant's interest in any such Leases, licenses, concessions or arrangements,
Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no
further right to or interest in the rent or other consideration receivable
thereunder.

            20.5  RE-ENTRY OF PREMISES. If an Event of Default shall occur,
Landlord shall also have the right, without terminating this Lease, to re-enter
the Premises and remove all persons and property therefrom by proper legal
proceedings. All such property shall be removed and stored in a public warehouse
or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant.

            20.6  ABANDONMENT OF PREMISES. In the event of the abandonment of
the Premises by Tenant, or in the event that Landlord elects to re-enter the
Premises as provided in Section 20.5 above or takes possession of the Premises
pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, and if
Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, then Landlord may from time to
time, without terminating this Lease, relet the Premises or any part thereof for
such term or terms and at such rent and upon such other terms and conditions as
Landlord, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable, with the right to make
alterations and repairs to the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall elect
to so relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be
applied: First, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder
from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting
(including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees and costs, leasing commissions,
tenant improvement costs and rent concessions such as free rent); third, to the
payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth, to
the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the remainder, if any, shall
be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become
due and payable hereunder. Should the portion of such rentals received from such
reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of Rent hereunder,
be less than the Rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant
immediately shall pay such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be
calculated and paid

                                       24
<PAGE>

monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any costs
and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting or in making such
alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.

            20.7  RE-ENTRY NOT TERMINATION. No re-entry or taking possession of
the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section 20 shall be construed as an
election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is
given to Tenant by Landlord or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a
court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any reletting without
termination by Landlord because of any default of Tenant, Landlord may at any
time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease for any such default.

            20.8  EFFORTS TO RELET. For the purposes of this Section 20,
Tenant's right to possession shall not be deemed to have been terminated by
efforts of Landlord to (i) relet the Premises, (ii) maintain or preserve the
Premises, or (iii) appoint a receiver to protect Landlord's interests hereunder.
The foregoing enumeration is not exhaustive, but merely illustrative of acts
that may be performed by Landlord without terminating Tenant's rights to
possession of the Premises.

      21.   PAYMENT BY TENANT.

            21.1  PAYMENT BY TENANT. Upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs and expenses incurred by
Landlord (including, but not limited to, court costs and reasonable attorneys'
fees and expenses) in (1) obtaining possession of the Premises, (2) removing and
storing the property of Tenant or any other occupant of the Premises, (3)
repairing, restoring, altering, remodeling, or otherwise putting the Premises
into condition to relet the Premises, (4) performing Tenant's obligations that
Tenant failed to perform, and (5) enforcing, or advising Landlord of, its
rights, remedies, and recourses arising out of the Event of Default. To the full
extent permitted by law, Landlord and Tenant agree the federal and state courts
of California shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any matter relating to or
arising from this Lease and the parties' rights and obligations under this
Lease.

            21.2  CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. Any and all remedies set forth in this
Lease: (1) shall be in addition to any and all other remedies Landlord may have
at law or in equity, (2) shall be cumulative, and (3) may be pursued
successively or concurrently as Landlord may elect. The exercise of any remedy
by Landlord shall not be deemed an election of remedies or preclude Landlord
from exercising any other remedies in the future.

      22.   SURRENDER OF PREMISES. No act by Landlord shall be deemed an
acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a
surrender of the Premises shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by
Landlord. At the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver
the Premises to Landlord with all improvements located therein in good repair
and condition, free of Hazardous Materials placed on the Premises by Tenant
during the Term, broom- clean, reasonable wear and tear excepted and shall
deliver to Landlord all keys to the Premises. Provided that Tenant has performed
all of its obligations hereunder, Tenant may remove all unattached trade
fixtures, furniture, and personal property placed in the Premises by

                                       25
<PAGE>

Tenant, and shall remove such alterations, additions, improvements, trade
fixtures, personal property, equipment, wiring, and furniture of Tenant as
Landlord may request. Tenant shall repair all damage caused by such removal. The
provisions of this Section 22 shall survive termination of this Lease.

      23.   PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES. Tenant shall be liable for all taxes levied
or assessed against personal property, furniture, or fixtures placed by Tenant
in the Premises. If any taxes for which Tenant is liable are levied or assessed
against Landlord or Landlord's property and Landlord elects to pay the same, or
if the assessed value of Landlord's property is increased by inclusion of such
personal property, furniture or fixtures and Landlord elects to pay the taxes
based on such increase, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon demand, the part
of such taxes for which Tenant is primarily liable hereunder; provided, however,
that Landlord shall not pay such amount if Tenant notifies Landlord that it will
contest the validity or amount of such taxes before Landlord makes such payment,
and thereafter diligently proceeds with such contest in accordance with law and
if the non- payment thereof does not pose a threat of loss or seizure of the
Building or interest of Landlord therein or impose any fee or penalty against
Landlord.

      24.   SURRENDER OF PREMISES AND REMOVAL OF PROPERTY; HOLDING OVER.

            24.1  SURRENDER OF PREMISES. Upon the expiration of the Term, or
upon any earlier termination hereof, Tenant shall quit and surrender possession
of the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as the Premises
existed on the Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and Tenant

all furniture, equipment, business and trade fixtures, and other articles of
personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its
expense in the Premises, and Tenant shall repair promptly and at its sole cost
and expense, all damage to the Property and the Building resulting from such
removal.

            24.2  HOLDING OVER. If Tenant fails to vacate the Premises at the
end of the Term, then Tenant shall be a tenant at will and, in addition to all
other damages and remedies to which Landlord may be entitled for such holding
over, Tenant shall pay, in addition to the other Rent, a daily Rent equal to one
hundred fifty percent (150%) of the daily Rent payable during the last month of
the Term. The provisions of this Section 24.2 shall not be deemed to limit or
constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein
or at law. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or
expiration of this Lease, then, in addition to any other liabilities of Landlord
accruing therefrom, Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless
the Landlord Indemnified Parties from and against any and all claims, suits,
demands, liability, damages and expenses, including attorneys' fees and costs
arising from or in connection with Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises.

      25.   CERTAIN RIGHTS RESERVED BY LANDLORD. Provided that the exercise of
such rights does not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's occupancy of the
Premises, and subject to Landlord's giving of not less than forty-eight (48)
hours Landlord shall have the following rights:

            25.1  INSPECTIONS. To make inspections, repairs, alterations,
additions, changes,

Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense and without abatement of Rent, except
as otherwise provided herein. If Tenant shall fail to observe and perform any
covenant, condition, provision or agreement contained in this Lease or shall
fail to perform any other act required to be performed by Tenant, Landlord may,
upon notice to Tenant, without obligation, and without waiving or releasing
Tenant from any default or obligations of Tenant, make any such payment or
perform any such obligation on Tenant's part to be performed. All amounts so
paid by Landlord and all costs incurred by Landlord in making such payment or
performing such obligation or enforcing this Lease, including reasonable

maximum rate permitted by law, shall be payable to Landlord on demand and Tenant
covenants to pay any and all such amounts, and Landlord shall have (in addition
to any other right or remedy hereunder) the same rights and remedies in the
