Attention:  Susanna Kim
            President

This letter sets forth our understanding relating to the sublease of office
space to Celebrity Sightings LLC ("CS") by Guidance Solutions ("Guidance").

Currently, CS is subleasing from Guidance office space located at 4134 Del Rey
Avenue.  Our intention is to complete the renovation and build out of additional
office space leased by Guidance located at 4086 Del Rey Avenue, and to provide
CS with office space at such new location at that time.  Until the renovations
are complete, however, Guidance will continue to provide to CS office space and
facilities under the current terms.  Upon completion of our new office space at
4086 Del Rey Avenue, we will sublease to CS approximately 2,000-3,000 square
feet of usable space at such new location for a term of at least one (1) year,
with options to renew this arrangement for additional terms.  The rent for the
first year will be approximately $1.69 per square foot per month, including
facilities, maintenance, utilities, taxes and insurance fees.  In order to
subsidize moving and build out costs, Guidance will pay to CS a subsidy in
amount to be mutually agreed.  Rent for additional terms will be escalated in a
manner agreeable to both CS and Guidance.  The foregoing matters, along with
other terms and conditions of our sub-lease arrangement to be finalized
(including, without limitation, square footage, improvements, parking
arrangements and renewal terms), will be subject to definitive documentation.
This letter agreement may not be assigned by CS except to a successor to all or
substantially all of its business or assets.

If the foregoing is acceptable, please cause an authorized officer to sign this
letter as provided below.

floor load per square foot area which it was designed to carry and which is

settings sufficient in Landlord's judgment, to absorb and prevent vibration,
noise and annoyance.

leases and to all mortgages which may now or hereafter affect such leases or the
real property of which demised premises are a part and to all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of any such
underlying leases and mortgages.  This clause shall be self-operative and
<PAGE>

underlying lessee or by any mortgage, affecting any lease or the real property
of which the demised premises are a part. In confirmation of such subordination,
Tenant shall execute promptly any certificate that Landlord may request.

unless caused by or due to the negligence of Landlord, its agents, servants or
employees; nor shall Landlord or its agents be liable for any such damage caused
by other tenants or persons in, upon or about said building or caused by
operations in construction of any private, public or quasi public work.  If at

bricked up (or permanently closed, darkened or bricked up, if required by law)

Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation therefor nor abatement or
diminution of rent nor shall the same release Tenant from its obligations
hereunder nor constitute an eviction.  Tenant shall not move any safe, heavy
machinery, heavy equipment, bulky matter, or fixtures into or out of the
building without Landlord's prior written consent.  If such safe, machinery,
equipment, bulky matter or fixtures requires special handling, all work in
connection therewith shall comply with the Administrative Code of the City of
New York and all other laws and regulations applicable thereto and shall be done
during such hours as Landlord may designate.  Tenant shall indemnify and save
harmless Landlord against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages,
penalties, claims, costs and expenses for which Landlord shall not be reimbursed
by insurance, including reasonable attorneys fees, paid, suffered or incurred as
a result of any breach by Tenant, Tenant's agents, contractors, employees,
invitees, or licenses, of any covenant or condition of this lease, or the
carelessness, negligence or improper conduct of the Tenant, Tenant's agents,
contractors, employees, invitees or licensees.  Tenant's liability under this
lease extends to the acts and omissions of any subtenant, and any agent,
contractor, employee, invitee or licensees.  Tenant's liability under this lease
extends to the acts and omissions of any subtenant, and any agent, contractor,
employee, invitee or licensee of any sub-tenant.  In case any action or
proceeding is brought against Landlord by reason of any such claim, Tenant, upon
written notice from Landlord, will, at Tenant's expense, resist or defend such
action or proceeding by counsel approved by Landlord in writing, such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld.

Destruction, Fire and Other Casualty:

     9.   (a)  If the demised premises or any part thereof shall be damaged
by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate notice thereof to
Landlord and this lease shall continue in full force and effect except as
hereinafter set forth.  (b) If the demised premises are partially damaged or
rendered partially unusable by fire or other casualty, the damages thereto shall
be repaired by and at the expense of Landlord and the rent, until such repair
shall be substantially completed, shall be apportioned from the day following
the casualty according to
<PAGE>

the part of the premises which is usable. (c) If the demised premises are
totally damaged or rendered wholly unusable by fire or other casualty, then the
rent shall be proportionately paid up to the time of the casualty and
thenceforth shall cease until the date when the premises shall have been
repaired and restored by Landlord, subject to Landlord's right to elect not to
restore the same as hereinafter provided. (d) If the demised premises are
rendered wholly unusable or (whether or not the demised premises are damaged in
whole or in part) if the building shall be so damaged that Landlord shall decide
to demolish it or to rebuild it, then, in any of such events, Landlord may elect
to terminate this lease by written notice to Tenant given within 90 days after
such fire or casualty specifying a date for the expiration of the lease, which
date shall not be more than 60 days after the giving of such notice, and upon,
the date specified in such notice the term of this lease shall expire as fully
and completely as if such date were the date set forth above for the termination
of this lease and Tenant shall forthwith quit, surrender and vacate the premises
without prejudice however, to Landlord's rights and remedies against Tenant
under the lease provisions in effect prior to such termination, and any rent
owing shall be paid up to such date and any payments of rent made by Tenant
which were on account of any period subsequent to such date shall be returned to
Tenant. Unless Landlord shall serve a termination notice as provided for herein,
Landlord shall make the repairs and restorations under the conditions of (b) and
(c) hereof, with all reasonable expedition subject to delays due to adjustment
of insurance claims, labor troubles and causes beyond Landlord's control. After
any such casualty, Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord's restoration by
removing from the premises as promptly as reasonably possible, all of Tenant's
salvageable inventory and movable equipment, furniture, and other property.
Tenant's liability for rent shall resume five (5) days after written notice from
Landlord that the premises are substantially ready for Tenant's occupancy. (e)
Nothing contained hereinabove shall relieve Tenant from liability that may exist
as a result of damage from fire or other casualty. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, each party shall look first to any insurance in its favor before
making any claim against the other party for recovery for loss or damage
resulting from fire or other casualty, and to the extent that such insurance is
in force and collectible and to the extent permitted by law, Landlord and Tenant
each hereby releases and waives all right of recovery against the other or any
one claiming through or under each of them by way of subrogation or otherwise.
The foregoing release and waiver shall be in force only if both releasors'
insurance policies contain a clause providing that such a release or waiver
shall not invalidate the insurance and also, provided that such a policy can be
obtained without additional premiums. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord will not
carry insurance on Tenant's furniture and/or furnishings or any fixtures or
equipment, improvements, or appurtenances removable by Tenant and agrees that
Landlord will not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the name.
(f) Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 227 of the Real Property Law
and agrees that the provisions of this article shall govern and control in lieu
thereof.

Eminent Domain:

     10.  If the whole or any part of the demised premises shall be acquired or
condemned by Eminent Domain for any public or quasi public use or purpose, then
and in that event, the term of this lease shall cease and terminate from the
date of title vesting in such proceeding and Tenant shall have no claim for the
value of any unexpired term of said lease.
<PAGE>

Assignment, Mortgages, Etc.:

     11.  Tenant, for itself, its heirs, distributees, executors,
administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns, expressly
covenants that it shall not assign, mortgage or encumber this agreement, nor
underlet, or suffer or permit the demised premises or any part thereof to be
used by others, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance.
If this lease be assigned, or if the demised premises or any part thereof be
underlet or occupied by anybody other than Tenant, Landlord may, after default
by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee, under tenant or occupant, and apply
the net amount collected to the rent herein reserved, but no such assignment,
underletting occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant,
or the acceptance of the assignee, under tenant or occupant as tenant, or a
release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of covenants on the
part of Tenant herein contained. The consent by Landlord to an assignment or
underletting shall not in any way be construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining
the express consent in writing of Landlord to any further assignment or
underletting.

Electric Current:

     12.  Rates and conditions in respect to submetering or rent inclusing,
as the case may be, to be added in RIDER attached hereto.  Tenant covenatns and
agrees that at all times its use of electric current shall not exceed the
capacity of existing feeders to the building or the risers or wiring
installation and Tenant may not use any electrical equipment which, in
Landlord's opinion, reasonably exercised, will overload such installations or
interfere with the use thereof by other tenants of the building.  The change at
any time of the character of electric servie shall in no wise make Landlord
liable or responsible to Tenant, for any loss, damages or expenses which Tenant
may sustain.

Access to Premises:

     13.  Landlord or Landlord's agent shall have the right (but shall not
be obligated) to enter the demised premises in any emergency at any time, and,
at other reasonable times, to examine the same and to make such repairs,
replacements and improvements as Landlord may deem necessary and reasonably
desirable to the demised premises or to any other portion of the building or
which Landlord may elect to perform following Tenant's failure to make repairs
or perform any work which Tenant is obligated to perform under this lease, or
for the purpose of complying with laws, regulations and other directions of
governmental authorities.  Tenant shall permit Landlord to use and maintain and
replace pipes and conduits in and through the demised premises and to erect new
pipes and conduits therein.  Landlord may, during the progress of any work in
the demised premises, take all necessary materials and equipment into said
premises without the same constituting an eviction nor shall the Tenant be
entitled to any abatement or rent while such work is in progress nor to any
damages by reason of loss or interruption of business or otherwise.  Throughout
the term hereof Landlord shall have the right to enter the demised premises at
reasonable hours for the purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers
or mortgagees of the building, and during the last six months of the term for
the purpose of showing the same to prospective tenants and may, during said six
month period, place upon the premises usual notices "To Let" and "For Sale"
which notices to Tenant shall permit to
<PAGE>

remain thereon without molestation. If Tenant is not present to open and permit
an entry into the premises, Landlord or Landlord's agents may enter the same
whenever such entry may be necessary or permissible by master key or forcibly
and provided reasonable care is exercised to safeguard Tenant's property and
such entry shall not render Landlord or its agents liable therefor, not in any
event shall the obligations of Tenant hereunder be affected. If during the last
month of the term Tenant shall have removed all or substantially all of Tenant's
property therefrom, Landlord may immediately enter, alter, renovate or
redecorate the demised premises without limitation or abatement of rent, or
incurring liability to Tenant therefor to change the arrangement and/or location
of public entrances, passageways, doors, doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs,
toilets, or other public parts of the building and to change the name, number or
designation by which the building may be known.

Vault, Vault Space, Area:

     14.  No Vaults, vault space or area, whether or not enclosed or covered,
not within the property line of the building is leased hereunder, anything
contained in or indicated on any sketch, blue print or plan, or anything
contained elsewhere in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding. Landlord
makes no representation as to the location of the property line of the building.
All vaults and vault space and all such areas not within the property line of
the building, which Tenant may be permitted to use and/or occupy, is to be used
and/or occupied under a revocable license, and if any such license be revoked,
or if the amount of such space or area be diminished or required by any federal,
state or municipal authority or public utility. Landlord shall not be subject to
any liability nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or diminution or
abatement of rent, nor shall such revocation, diminution or requisition be
deemed constructive or actual eviction. Any tax, fee or charge of municipal
authorities for such vault or area shall be paid by Tenant.

Occupancy:

     15.  Tenant will not at any time use or occupy the demised premises in
violation of the certificate of occupancy issued for the building of which the
demised premises are a part.  Tenant has inspected the premises and accepts them
as is, subject to the riders annexed hereto with respect to Landlord's work, if
any.  In any event, Landlord makes no representation as to the condition of the
premises and Tenant agrees to accept the same subject to violations whether or
not of record.

Bankruptcy:

     16.  (a)  If at the date fixed as the commencement of the term of this
lease or if at any time during the term hereby demised there shall be filed by
or against Tenant in any court pursuant to any statute either of the United
States or of any state, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for
reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or a
portion of Tenant's property, and within 60 days thereof, Tenant fails to secure
a dismissal thereof, or if Tenant make an assignment for the benefit of
creditors or petition for or enter into an arrangement, this lease, at the
option of Landlord, exercised within a reasonable time after notice of the
happening of any one or more of such events, may be cancelled and terminated by
written
<PAGE>

notice to the Tenant (but if any of such events occur prior to the commencement
date, this lease shall be ipso facto cancelled and terminated) and whether such
cancellation and termination occur prior to or during the term, neither Tenant
nor any person claiming through or under Tenant by virtue of any statute or of
any order of any court, shall be entitled to possession or to remain in
possession of the premises demised but shall forthwith quit and surrender the
premises, and Landlord, in addition to the other rights and remedies Landlord
has by virtue of any other provision herein or elsewhere in this lease contained
or by virtue of any statute or rule of law, may retain as liquidated damages,
any rent, security deposit or moneys received by him from Tenant or others in
behalf of Tenant. If this lease shall be assigned in accordance with its terms,
the provisions of his Article 16 shall be applicable only to the party then
owning Tenant's interest in this lease.

     (b)  It is stipulated and agreed that in the event of the termination of
this lease pursuant to (a) hereof, Landlord shall forthwith, notwithstanding any
other provisions of this lease to the contrary, be entitled to recover from
Tenant as and for liquidated damages an amount equal to the difference between
the rent reserved hereunder of r the unexpired portion of the term demised and
the fair and reasonable rental value of the demised premises for the same
period. In the computation of such damages the difference between any
installment of rent becoming due hereunder after the date of termination and the
fair and reasonable rental value of the demised premises for the period for
which such installment was payable shall be discounted to the date of
termination at the rate of four percent (4%) per annum. If such premises or any
part thereof be re-let by the Landlord for the unexpired term of said lease, or
any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to any
court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such re-letting
shall be deemed to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the part or the
whole of the premises so re-let during the term of the re-letting. Nothing
herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of the Landlord to prove for
and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal
to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when,
and governing the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved, whether
or not such amount be greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the
difference referred to above.

Default:

     17.  (1)  If Tenant defaults in fulfilling any of the covenants of this
lease other than the covenants for the payment of rent or additional rent; or if
the demised premises become vacant or deserted; or if the demised premises are
damaged by reason of negligence or carelessness of Tenant, its agents, employees
or invitees; or if any execution or attachment shall be issued against Tenant or
any of Tenant's property whereupon the demised premises shall be taken or
occupied by someone other than Tenant; or if Tenant shall make default with
respect to any other lease between Landlord and Tenant; or if Tenant shall fail
to move into or take possession of the premises within fifteen (15) days after
the commencement of the term of this lease, of which fact Landlord shall be the
sole judge; then, in any one or more of such events, upon Landlord serving a
written five (5) days notice upon Tenant specifying the nature of said default
and upon the expiration of said five (5) days, if Tenant shall have failed to
comply with or remedy such default, or if the said default or omission
complained of shall be of a nature that the same cannot be completely cured or
remedied within said five (5) day period, and if Tenant
<PAGE>

shall not have diligently commenced curing such default within such five (5) day
period, and shall not thereafter with reasonable diligence and in good faith
proceed to remedy or cure such default, then Landlord may serve a written three
(3) days' notice of cancellation of this lease upon Tenant, and upon the
expiration of said three (3) days, this lease and the term thereof such three
(3) day period were the day herein definitely fixed for the end and expiration
of this lease and the term thereof and Tenant shall then quit and surrender the
demised premises to Landlord but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter
provided.

     (2)  If the notice provided for in (1) hereof shall have been given,
and the term shall expire as aforesaid; or if Tenant shall make default in the
payment of the rent reserved herein or any item of additional payment herein
required; then and in any of such events Landlord may without notice, re-enter
the demised premises either by force or otherwise, and dispossess Tenant by
summary proceedings or otherwise, and the legal representative of Tenant or
other occupant of demised premises and remove their effects and hold the
premises as if this lease had not been made, and Tenant hereby waives the
service of notice of intention to re-enter or to institute legal proceedings to
that end.  If Tenant shall make default hereunder prior to the date fixed as the
commencement of any renewal or extension of this lease, Landlord may cancel and
terminate such renewal or extension agreement by written notice.

Remedies of Landlord and Waiver of Redemption:

     18.  In case of any such default, re-entry, expiration and/or dispossess by
summary proceedings or otherwise, (a) the rent shall become due thereupon and be
paid up to the time of such re-entry, dispossess and/or expiration, together
with such expenses as Landlord may incur for legal expenses, attorneys' fees,
brokerages, and/or putting the demised premises in good order, or for preparing
the same for re-rental; (b) Landlord may re-let the premises or any part or
parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms
,which may at Landlord's option be less than or exceed the period which would
otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this lease and may grant
concessions or free rent or charge a higher rental than that in this lease,
and/or (c) Tenant or the legal representatives of Tenant shall also pay Landlord
as liquidated damages for the failure of Tenant to observe and perform said
Tenant's covenants herein contained, any deficiency between the rent hereby
reserved and/or covenanted to be paid and the net amount if any, of the rents
collected on account of the lease or leases of the demised premises for each
month of the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the
term of this lease. The failure of Landlord to re-let the premises or any part
or parts thereof shall not release or affect Tenant's liability for damages. In
computing such liquidated damages there shall be added to the said deficiency
such expenses as Landlord may incur in connection with re-letting, such as legal
expenses, attorneys' fees, brokerage, advertising and for keeping the demised
premises in good order or for preparing the same for re-letting. Any such
liquidated damages shall be paid in monthly installments by Tenant on the rent
day specified in this lease and any suit brought to collect the amount of the
deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of Landlord
to collect the deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar proceeding
Landlord. In putting the demised premises in good order or preparing the same
for re-rental may, at Landlord's option, make such alterations, repairs,
replacements, and/or decorations in the demised premises as Landlord, in
Landlord's sole judgment, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of
re-letting the demised premises,
<PAGE>

and the making of such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or decorations
shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as
aforesaid. Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for
failure to re-let the demised premises, or in the event that the demised
premises are re-let, for failure to collect the rent thereof under such re-
letting, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess, if any,
of such net rents collected over the sums payable by tenant to Landlord
hereunder. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the
covenant or provisions hereof, Landlord shall have the right of injunction and
the right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if re-entry,
summary proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided for. Mention in
this lease of any particular remedy, shall not preclude Landlord from any other
remedy, in law or in equity. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights
of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event of
Tenant being evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Landlord
obtaining possession of demised premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant
of any of the covenants and conditions of this lease, or otherwise.

Fees and Expenses:

     19.  If tenant shall default in the observance or performance of any term
or covenant on tenant's part to be observed or performed under or by virtue of
any of the terms or provisions in any article of this lease, then, unless
otherwise provided elsewhere in this lease, landlord may immediately or at any
time thereafter and without notice perform the obligation of tenant thereunder,
and if landlord, in connection therewith or in connection with any default by
tenant in the covenant to pay rent hereunder, makes any expenditures or incurs
any obligations for the payment of money, including but not limited attorney's
fees, in instituting, prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding, such
sums so paid or obligations incurred with interest and costs shall be deemed to
be additional rent hereunder and shall be paid by tenant to landlord within five
(5) days of rendition of any bill or statement to tenant therefor, and if
tenant's lese term shall have expired at the time of making such expenditures or
incurring of such obligations, such sums shall be recoverable by landlord as
damages.

No Representations by Landlord:

     20.  Neither Landlord nor Landlord's agents have made any representations
or promises with respect to the physical condition of the building, the land
upon which it is erected or the demised premises, the rents, leases, expenses of
operation or any other matter or thing affecting or related to the premises
except as herein expressly set forth and no rights, easements or licenses are
acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise except as expressly set forth in
the provisions of this lease. Tenant has inspected the building and the demised
premises and is thoroughly acquainted with their condition, and agrees to take
the same "as is" and acknowledges that the taking of possession of the demised
premises by Tenant shall be conclusive evidence that the said premises and the
building of which the same form a part were in good and satisfactory condition
at the time such possession was so taken, except as to latent defects. All
understandings and agreements heretofore made between the parties hereto are
merged in this contract, which alone fully and completely expresses the
agreement between Landlord and tenant and any executory agreement hereafter made
shall be ineffective to change, modify, discharge or effect and abandonment of
it in while or in part, unless such executory agreement is in writing
<PAGE>

and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, modification,
discharge or abandonment is sought.

End of Term:

          21.  Upon the expiration or other termination of the term of this
lease, Tenant shall quit and surrender to Landlord the demised premises, broom
clean, in good order and condition, ordinary wear expected, and Tenant shall
remove all its property.  Tenant's obligation to observe or perform this
covenant shall survive the expiration or other termination of this lease.  If
the last day of the term of this lease or any renewal thereof, falls on Sunday,
this lease shall expire at noon on the preceding Saturday unless it be a legal
holiday in which case it shall expire at noon on the preceding business day.

Outlet Employment:

          22.  Landlord covenants and agrees with Tenant that upon Tenant paying
the rent and additional rent and observing and performing all the terms,
covenants and conditions, on Tenant's part to be observed and performed, Tenant
may peaceably and quietly enjoy the premises hereby demised, subject,
nevertheless, to the terms and conditions of this lease including, but not
limited to, Article 33 hereof and to the ground leases, underlying leases and
mortgages hereinbefore mentioned.

Failure to Give Possession:

          23.  If Landlord is unable to give possession of the demised premises
on the date of the commencement of the term thereof, because of the holding-over
or retention of possession of any tenant, undertenant or occupants, or if the
premises are located in a building being constructed, because such building has
not been sufficiently completed to make the premises ready for occupancy or
because of the fact that a certificate of occupancy has not been procured or for
any other reason, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for failure to
give possession on said date and the validity of the lease shall not be impaired
under such circumstances, nor shall the same be construed in any wise to extend
the term of this lease, but the rent payable hereunder shall be abated (provided
Tenant is not responsible for the inability to obtain possession) until after
Landlord shall have given Tenant written notice that the premises are
substantially ready for Tenant's occupancy.  If permission is given to Tenant to
enter into the possession of the demised premises or to occupy premises other
than the demised premises prior to the date specified as the commencement of the
term of this lease.  Tenant covenants and agrees that such occupancy shall be
deemed to be under all the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this
lease, except as to the covenant to pay rent.  The provisions of this article
are intended to constitute "an express provision to the contrary" within the
meaning of Section 223-a of the New York Real Property Law.

No Waiver:

          24.  The failure of the Landlord to seek redress for violation of, or
to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant or condition of this lease
or of any of the Rules or
<PAGE>

Regulations set forth or hereafter adopted by Landlord, shall not prevent a
subsequent act which would have originally constituted a violation from having
all the force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Landlord of
rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this lease shall not be
deemed a waiver of such breach and no provision of this lease shall be deemed to
have been waived by Landlord unless such waiver be in writing signed by
Landlord. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than
the monthly rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account
of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement of any
check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an
accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without
prejudice to remedy in this lease provided. No act or thing done by Landlord or
Landlord's agents during the term hereby demised shall be deemed an acceptance
of a surrender of said premises and no agreement to accept such surrender shall
be valid unless in writing signed by Landlord. No employee of Landlord or
Landlord's agent shall have any power to accept the keys of said premises prior
to the termination of the lease and the delivery of keys to any such agent or
employee shall not operate as a termination of the lease or a surrender of the
premises.

Waiver of Trial by Jury:

          25.  It is mutually agreed by and between Landlord and Tenant that the
respective parties hereto shall and they hereby do waive trial by jury in any
action proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto
against the other (except for personal injury or property damages) on any matter
whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this lease, the
relationship of Landlord and Tenant, Tenant's use of or occupancy of said
premises, and any emergency statutory or any other statutory remedy.  It is
further mutually agreed that in the event Landlord commences any summary
proceeding for possession of the premises Tenant will not interpose any
counterclaim of whatever nature or description in any such proceeding.

Inability to Perform:

          26.  This lease and the obligation of Tenant to pay rent hereunder and
perform all of the other covenants and agreements hereunder on part of Tenant to
be performed shall in no wise be affected, impaired or excused because Landlord
is unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this lease or to supply or is
delayed in supplying any service expressly or impliedly to be supplied or is
unable to makes, or is delayed in making any repair, additions, alterations or
decorations or is unable to supply or is delayed in supplying any equipment or
fixtures if Landlord is prevented or delayed from so doing by reason of strike
or labor troubles or any cause whatsoever including, but not limited to,
government preemption in connection with a National Emergency or by reason of an
rule, order or regulation of any department of subdivision thereof of any
government agency or by reason of the conditions of supply and demand which have
been or are affected by war or other emergency.

Bills and Notices:

          27.  Except as otherwise in this lease provided, a bill, statement,
notice or communication which Landlord may desire or be require to give to
Tenant, shall be deemed sufficiently given or rendered if, in writing, delivered
to Tenant personally or sent by registered
<PAGE>

or certified mail addressed to Tenant at the building of which the demised
premises form a part or at the last known residence address or business address
of Tenant or left at any of the aforesaid premises addressed to Tenant, and the
time of the rendition of Tenant, mailed or left at the premises as herein
provided. Any notice by Tenant to Landlord must be served by registered or
certified mail address to Landlord at the address first hereinabove given or at
such other address as Landlord shall designate by written notice.

Water Charges:

          28.  If Tenant requires, uses or consumes water for any purpose in
addition to ordinary lavatory purposes (of which fact Tenant constitutes
Landlord to be the sole judge) Landlord may install a water meter and thereby
measure Tenant's water consumption for all purposes.  Tenant shall pay Landlord
for the cost of the meter and the cost of the installation thereof and
throughout the duration of Tenant's occupancy Tenant shall keep said meter and
installation equipment in good working order and repair at Tenant's own cost and
expense in default of which Landlord may cause such meter and equipment to be
replaced or repaired and collect the same from Tenant.  Tenant covenants and
agrees to pay the sewer rent.  If the building or the demised premises or any
part thereof be supplied with water through a meter through which water is also
supplied to other premises Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, on
the first day of each month, _____% ($75.00) of the total meter charges, as
Tenant's portion.  Independently of and in addition to any of the remedies
reserved to Landlord hereinabove or elsewhere in this lease, Landlord may sue
for and collect any monies to be paid by Tenant or paid by Landlord for any of
the reasons or purposes hereinabove set forth.

Sprinklers:

          29.  Anything elsewhere in this lease to the contrary not-writers or
the New York Fire Insurance Exchange or any bureau, department or official of
the federal, state or city government require or recommend the installation of a
sprinkler system or that any changes, modifications, alterations, or additional
sprinkler heads or other equipment be made or supplied in an existing sprinkler
system by reason of Tenant's business, or the location of partitions, trade
fixtures, or other contents of the demised premises, or for any other reason, or
if any such sprinkler system installations, changes, modifications, alterations,
additional sprinkler heads or other such equipment, become necessary to prevent
the imposition of a penalty or charge against the full allowance for a sprinkler
system in the fire insurance rate set by any said Exchange or by any fire
insurance company.  Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, promptly make such
sprinkler system installations, changes, modifications, alterations and supply
additional sprinkler heads or other equipment as required whether the work
involved shall be structural or non- structural in nature.  Tenant shall pay to
Landlord as additional rent the sum of $75.00 on the first day of each month
during the term of this lease, and Tenant's portion of the contract price for
sprinkler supervisory service.

          30.  As long as Tenant is not in default under any of the convenants
of this lease Landlord shall:  (c) at Landlord's expense cause to be kept clean

at Tenant's expense, keep the demised premises clean and in order, to the
satisfaction of Landlord and for that purpose shall employ the person or
persons, or corporation approved by Landlord. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the
cost of removal of any of Tenant's refuse and rubbish from the building. Bills
for the same shall be rendered by Landlord to Tenant at such time as Landlord
may elect and shall be due and payable when rendered, and the amount of such
bills shall be deemed to be, and be paid as, additional rent. Tenant shall,
however, have the option of independently contracting for the removal of such
rubbish and refuse in the event that Tenant does not wish to have same done by
employees of Landlord. Under such circumstances, however, the removal of such
refuse and rubbish by others shall be subject to such rules and regulations as,
in the judgment of Landlord, are necessary for the proper operation of the
building. Landlord reserves the right to stop service of the heating, elevator,
plumbing and electric systems, when necessary, by reason of accident, or
emergency, or for repairs, alterations, replacements or improvements in the
judgment of Landlord desirable or necessary to be made, until said repairs,
alterations, replacements or improvements shall have been completed. And
Landlord shall have no responsibility or liability for failure to supply heat,
elevator, plumbing and electric service during said period or when prevented
from so doing by strikes, accidents or by any cause beyond Landlord's control,
or by laws, orders or regulations of any Federal, State or Municipal Authority,
or failure or coal, oil or other suitable fuel supply, or inability by exercise
of reasonable diligence to obtain coal, oil or other suitable fuel. If the
building of which the demised premises are a part supplies manually operated
elevator service. Landlord may proceed with alterations necessary to substitute
automatic control elevator service upon ten (10) day written notice to Tenant
without in any way affecting the obligations of Tenant hereunder, provided that
the same shall be done with the minimum amount of inconvenience to Tenant and
Landlord pursues with due diligence the completion of the alterations.

          31.  Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum of $12,000.00 as
security for the faithful performance and observance by Tenant of the terms,
provisions and conditions of this lease: it is agreed that in the event Tenant
defaults in respect of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this
lease, including, but not limited to, the payment of rent and additional rent,
Landlord may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the security so
deposited to the extent required for the payment of any rent and additional rent
or any other sum as to which Tenant is in default or for any sum which Landlord
may expend or may be required to expend by reason of Tenant's default in respect
of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this lease, including but not
limited to, any damages or deficiency in the reletting of the premises, whether
such damages or deficiency accrued before or after summary proceedings or other
re-entry by Landlord.  In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully
comply with all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this
lease, the security shall be returned to Tenant after the date fixed as the end
of the Lease and after delivery of entire possession of the demised premises to
Landlord.  In the event of a sale of the land and building or leasing of the
building, of which the demised premises form a part, Landlord shall have the
right to transfer the security to the vendee or lessee and Landlord shall
thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability for the return of such
security, and Tenant agrees to look to the new Landlord solely for the return of
said security, and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every
transfer or
<PAGE>

assignment made of the security to a new Landlord. Tenant further covenants that
it will not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the monies
deposited herein as security and that neither Landlord nor its successors or
assigns shall be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment
or attempted encumbrance.
