         or authority to bind the other party, or to assume or create any
         obligation or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf of the

         for any special routing, packing, handling or insurance requested by
         Reseller and agreed to by HP. Orders

                                                                     Page 3 of 6
<PAGE>

         shipped under special routing instructions must be separately agreed
         upon and may be subject to additional charges.

    B.   Prices are exclusive of, and Reseller will pay, applicable sales, use,
         service, value added or like taxes, unless Reseller has provided HP
         with an appropriate exemption certificate for the Delivery
         jurisdiction, or HP agrees the transaction is otherwise exempt.

    C.   HP reserves the right to change prices and discounts upon reasonable
         notice or as specified in Exhibits or the OPM. If Reseller is unsure of
         the List Price to use in calculating Net Reseller Price for any
         Product; Reseller should contact its HP sales representative or
         relationship manager.

    D.   List prices are suggested prices for resale to end-user customers and a
         basis for calculating Net Reseller Price. Reseller has the right to
         determine its own resale prices, and no HP representative will require
         that any particular resale price be charged by Reseller or grant or
         withhold any benefits to Reseller based on Reseller's resale pricing
         policies. Reseller agrees that it will promptly report any effort by HP
         personnel to interfere with its pricing policies directly to an HP
         officer or senior sales manager.

    E.   Upon request from Reseller, HP may at its discretion grant special
         pricing for particular end-user customer transactions. In good faith HP
         may retract the special pricing at any time before acceptance by the
         end-user customer. HP may extend the pricing on an exclusive or non-
         exclusive basis and may condition the pricing on a pass-through of all
         or part of the non-standard offering extended by HP.

    F.   HP may, from time to time, offer Reseller certain Products on special
         promotional terms and conditions. All such offerings may be subject to
         pricing or discounts different from those provided for in this
         Agreement. Such offerings may not, in some cases, apply towards
         Reseller's volume or other commitments, and may not be eligible for
         other standard benefits, including but not limited to promotional
         allowance funds, price protection or stock adjustments. Except as
         specifically altered by HP in a promotional offering under this
         section, all other terms and conditions will remain unaltered.

6.  ORDERS AND DELIVERY

    A.   HP will honor written orders from Reseller unless other methods are
         agreed upon in writing. Reseller's orders must reference this Agreement
         and comply with the minimum order, release, destination ("Shipment"
         address) and other requirements specified in Addenda, Exhibits and/or
         the OPM. Orders must also specify Delivery dates within periods
         specified in the OPM.

    B.   Reseller will issue orders from approved locations within its
         organization and will specify HP authorized "Ship To" addresses within
         the country where the order is placed, unless otherwise agreed.
         Reseller is responsible for ensuring that only authorized employees
         place, change or delete orders and that the orders conform to all
         requirements of this Agreement.

    C.   All orders are subject to acceptance by HP.

    D.   Delivery is subject to Product availability at the time Reseller's
         order is received. HP will make every reasonable effort to meet
         delivery dates quoted or acknowledged. If Products are in short supply,
         HP will allocate them at HP's discretion.

    E.   Title to hardware Products and risk of loss and damage for any Product
         will pass to Reseller at destination, provided however, that if
         Products are shipped under Reseller's shipping instructions, title and
         risk of loss and damage will pass to Reseller at HP's shipping dock.

    F.   Transactions may be conducted through Electronic Data Interchange
         ("EDI") or other electronic methods, as agreed.

    G.   Neither party will be responsible for failure or delay in performance
         due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, such as labor
         disputes, natural disaster, shortage of or inability to obtain labor,
         energy, and materials, war, riot, embargo, fire, or any other act or
         condition beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing party.
         Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall relieve the Reseller from
         any payment obligations under this Agreement.

7.   PAYMENT

     A.   Reseller will pay invoices within thirty (30) days from the date of
          HP's invoice. HP reserves the right to specify payment in advance or
          other payment terms for credit reasons, or when Reseller's financial
          condition or relationship with HP so warrants, with respect to any new
          or unshipped orders.

     B.   If Reseller fails to pay any sum when due or fails to perform under
          this or any other Agreement with HP after ten (10) days written
          notice, HP may discontinue performance under this or any other
          Agreement between HP and Reseller.

     C.   Any Reseller claim for adjustment of an invoice is deemed to be waived
          if Reseller fails to present such claim within ninety (90) days from
          the date of the invoice. No claims, credits, or offsets may be
          deducted from any invoice.

8.  WARRANTY

    Product warranty terms, conditions, exceptions, exclusions and disclaimers
    are contained in the OPM, Exhibits and where applicable with Products.

9.  PRODUCT MODIFICATION

    A.   HP reserves the right to make change in the design or Specifications of
         Products.

    B.   Reseller is responsible for any modification it makes to Products or
         for any commitment made with respect to special interfacing,
         compatibility or suitability of Products for specific applications.

    C.   If HP believes Reseller's modifications may have an adverse effect on
         Product support, marketing and technical specifications, HP reserves
         the right to modify this Agreement.

         such shipments.

    C.   Direct Reseller agrees to:

         1.   Advertise, promote, demonstrate and sell Products on a face-to-

         request by HP, Direct Reseller will sign any document required to

         unreasonable shipment request.

         scheduled. If Direct Reseller fails to accept a scheduled delivery, or
         takes any action which delays or hinders HP's ability to meet any
         delivery schedule, HP reserves the right to charge Direct Reseller for
         any costs resulting from such action, including return freight fees and
         restocking charges. In addition, HP reserves the right to cancel any

         consistently at the time agreed upon by HP and the Direct Reseller.

    C.   Direct Reseller warrants that the information transmitted to HP is
         accurate. Such information may provide for benefits under HP programs
         which link the provision of benefits to accurate sell-through, sell-to
         or inventory information. Failure to report accurate daily data for
         each approved location and to incorporate the previous day's data for
         each approved location will be considered a violation of this Agreement
         and will result in penalties equal to HP's cost to correct such errors.

    D.   Direct Reseller must respond to and resolve any data integrity issues
         within seven (7) calendar days of HP's request for verification.

    E.   Direct Reseller must identify a specific contact for data integrity and
         reporting issues.

    F.   Any changes to the format, frequency, or type of data provided by
         Direct Reseller to HP must be made following HP's written request to
         Direct Reseller, which request must be signed by one of Hp's authorized
         data management representatives, or following HP's written agreement to
         a letter documenting Direct Reseller's request for such changes. Such
         agreement may be made only by one of HP's authorized data management
         representatives. A list of such authorized representatives may be
         obtained from Direct Resellers HP account manager. HP reserves the
         right to deny Direct Reseller any HP financial benefits for purchases
         or sales made for which Direct Reseller's provision of data is not in
         compliance with the provisions of this subsection.

    G.   Direct Reseller is responsible for the accuracy of data provided to HP
         for benefits under any HP program which links the provision of benefits
         to sell-through, sell-to or inventory information.

    H.   HP reserves the right to refuse to review disputed benefit claim which
         are made outside the allotted time frame referenced in the program
         documentation or which are based on late, inaccurate or otherwise
         discrepant data supplied by Direct Reseller. If HP agrees to review a
         disputed benefit claim, then HP may charge and deduct from any credits
         owed to Direct Reseller for all expenses HP incurs in reviewing the
         claims.

    I.   Any expense incurred in the process of meeting the reporting
         requirements set forth in this Agreement or related materials is the
         sole responsibility of the Direct Reseller.

    J.   Direct Reseller must comply with any reporting requirements for HP
         marketing and promotional programs. Such programs may impose a twenty-
         five dollar ($25) minimum benefit per transaction requirement.

    K.   HP may recover all reasonable actual costs associated with compliance
         verification procedures, by deducing equivalent amounts from any
         promotional funds, rebate funds or any other HP accrued funds held for
         Direct Resellers use.

    L.   HP may debit Direct Reseller for all wrongfully claimed discounts,
         rebates, promotional allowances or other amounts determined as a result
         of HP's audit.

    M.   HP may, from time to time, send to Direct Reseller a list of serial
         numbers of designated Products for which HP tracks unauthorized sales.
         Direct Reseller agrees to identify to which Customer each serial number
         was shipped and to forward this information to its HP representative
         within a period of not more than twenty-one (21) days from the date of
         HP's notice.

7.  TERM AND TERMINATION

    In addition to and notwithstanding Section 18 of the HP Reseller Business
    Terms:

    A.   Either party may terminate this Exhibit or the entire Agreement without
         cause at any time upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the other
         party, or with cause at any time upon fifteen (15) days' written
         notice to the other party.

8.  GENERAL

    In addition to the terms set forth in Section 20 of the HP Reseller Business
    Terms, the following will apply:

    A.   U.S. GOVERNMENT

         1.   Unless Direct Reseller has obtained HP's prior written consent,
              Direct Reseller is prohibited from issuing any "Letter of Supply",
              from guaranteeing to supply, or from selling, supplying, or
              providing any person with Products for resale under any GSA
              contract. Unless Direct Reseller has first received a Letter of
              Supply or other written authorization from HP, Direct Reseller is
              prohibited from listing, and will not list, HP Products on any GSA
              Schedule or contract.

         2.   No U.S. Government procurement regulations will be deemed included
              in this Agreement or binding an either party unless specifically
              accepted in writing and signed by both parties.

         3.   HP has a specific published process for identifying Defense
              Priority Allocation System (DPAS) orders, which HP will provide to
              Reseller upon request. Orders placed by Direct Reseller that do
              not follow this process will not recognized as DPAS orders and may
              be rejected. HP will not be liable for improperly placed DPAS
              orders.

    B.   INTERNATIONAL SALES

         Notwithstanding Section 20.F of the HP Reseller Business Terms, Direct
         Reseller will not export Products to any purchaser outside the U.S.,
         nor will Direct Reseller sell Products for export outside the U.S.,
         without HP's prior written consent. HP's consent to Direct Reseller's
         export of Products does not relieve Direct Reseller of its obligation
         to obtain any required licenses from the United States Department of
         Commerce, or any other agency or department of the United States
         government, or any other required approvals from any other government
         required by any applicable law or regulation, prior to exporting HP
         Products directly or indirectly.

                                                                     Page 4 of 4

                                RAM VAR EXHIBIT

1.  FURTHER APPOINTMENT

    A.   HP appoints Direct Reseller as an authorized, non-exclusive reseller
         (sometimes referred to in this Exhibit as "RAM VAR") of the Products
         identified with a check mark on the signature page of this Agreement.

    B.   Except as expressly modified by this Exhibit, all other terms and
         conditions in this Agreement remain in full force and effect, and apply
         to all RAM VAR purchases under this Exhibit.

2.  RESELLER ACCOUNT MANAGER INTERFACE

    A.   HP will designate a "Reseller Account Manager" to act as HP's agent in
         connection with all Product purchases by RAM VAR under this Exhibit and
         the associated Product Exhibits. The Reseller Account Manager will act
         as RAM VAR's primary interface with respect to the fulfillment of HP's
         obligations in the following areas, plus any others designated by HP:
         Product marketing, Agreement compliance, pre-sales and post-sales
         technical support, Product orders, invoices, credit and collection.

    B.   Reseller Account Manager may require additional terms and conditions
         with RAM VAR in connection with this Exhibit, including additional
         credit terms. Such additional terms and conditions will be subject to
         HP's prior review and approval, and if so approved will take precedence
         over any conflicting terms and conditions in this Agreement.

3.  CERTIFICATION

    RAM VAR certifies:

    A.   It is experienced in the use and operation of the Products to be
         purchased hereunder and will be primarily responsible for the marketing
         and support of the Products to end-user customers. RAM VAR may request
         marketing assistance from HP. HP will only be obligated to provide such
         assistance as is specifically and mutually agreed upon by both parties.

    B.   It will take sole responsibility for any representations it makes or
         agreements it executes.

    C.   The Products purchased under this Agreement for RAM VAR purposes will
         be incorporated in a system consisting of a substantial amount of other
         services, hardware and/or software which VAR manufactures, develops,
         provides or, in the case of software, acquires the right to license or
         sublicense ("added value") and which RAM VAR sells or leases to end-
         user customers (other than RAM VAR's corporate parent, division, or any
         subsidiary of corporate parent) in the regular course of business. This
         added value represents a significant functional and value enhancement
         to the Products RAM VAR furnishes. If RAM VAR's added value consists of
         software, the software solves a major application need for the system
         being purchased.

    D.   It is responsible for maintaining ongoing support services for the
         added value portion of the system.

    E.   It is responsible for complying with all training requirements
         designated by HP and provided to RAM VAR, concerning each eligible
         Product RAM VAR carries.

    F.   For the term of this Agreement, RAM VAR will only be authorized to
         purchase HP Products associated with this Exhibit from Reseller Account
         Manager with which RAM VAR applies and is approved by HP.

4.  CONDITIONS

    A.   Whenever Products are being purchased for RAM VAR purposes, RAM VAR
         will so specify in its order.

    B.   RAM VAR will not advertise, promote, or resell Products to customers
         outside the vertical market(s) designated in writing by HP.

    C.   RAM VAR will not advertise, promote, or resell Products to customers
         outside the geographic area(s) designated in writing by HP.

    D.   RAM VAR will not resell HP Products without the added value described
         in this Agreement.

    E.   RAM VAR will have no claim against HP for compensation or commission
         from any purchase of HP Products from HP or a third party by RAM VAR's
         end-user customers or prospective end-user customers.

    F.   RAM VAR will qualify for RAM VAR discounts on add-on Products and
         upgrades to Products previously purchased by RAM VAR under this Exhibit
         if: (1) RAM VAR initially resold the Product or system being enhanced
         or upgraded (the "Initial System") with added value in accordance with
         the terms of this Program Exhibit including but not limited to any
         added value or other requirements set forth in the Reseller's
         application, and RAM VAR has provided and continues to provide ongoing
         support on Initial System, or (2) RAM VAR did not initially resell the
         Initial System but RAM VAR sells the upgrade or add-on with the added
         value specified in this Program Exhibit.

                                                                     Page 3 of 3

         Software. Different License Fees may apply to particular Software if
         more than one Software License is available for that Software.

2.  LICENSES

    In return for the License Fee, HP grants Customer a non-exclusive license to
    Use the Software listed in Customers order in conformance with the
    applicable Software License. Details of the types of Software Licenses
    offered are available from HP on request. If no Software License is
    specified, then, in return for the applicable fee, HP grants Customer a
    license to Use one copy of the Software on one Device at any one time. All
    Software Licenses will be perpetual unless terminated, transferred or
    otherwise specified.

    If Customer is an HP Authorized Reseller, Customer may sublicense the
    Software to an end-user for its Use, or (if applicable) sublicense the
    Software to an HP Authorized Reseller for subsequent distribution to an end-
    user for its Use. These sublicenses must incorporate the terms of this
    license in a written sublicense agreement, which will be made available to
    HP upon request

3.  GENERAL LICENSE TERMS

    A.   Unless otherwise permitted by HP, Customer may only make copies or
         adaptations of the Software for archival purposes or when copying or
         adaptation is an essential step in the authorized Use of the Software
         on a backup Device, provided that copies and adaptations are used in no
         other manner and provided further that the Use on the backup Device is
         discontinued when the original or replacement Device becomes operable.

         Device.

    D.   Updates, upgrades or other enhancements are available under HP Support
         Agreements. HP reserves the right to require additional licenses and
         fees for Use Of the Software on upgraded Devices.

         Customer will immediately upon transfer deliver all copies of the
         Software to the transferee. The transferee must agree in writing to the
         terms of Customers license. All license terms will be binding on
         involuntary transferees, notice of which is hereby given. Customer's
         license will automatically terminate upon transfer.

    H.   HP may terminate Customer's or any transferee's or sublicensee's
         Software License upon notice for failure to comply with any applicable
         license terms. Immediately upon termination, the Software and all
         copies of the Software will be destroyed or returned to HP. Copies of
         the Software that are merged into adaptations, except for individual
         pieces of data in Customer's or transferee's or sublicensee's data
         base, will be removed and destroyed or returned to HP. With HP's
         written consent, one copy of the Software may be retained subsequent to

         limited to the country in which the additional coverage was purchased.
         Customer may receive a different warranty when the Product is purchased
         as part of a system. HP reserves the right to change the warranty. Such
         changes will affect only new orders.

    E.   The warranty period begins on the date of Delivery, or the date of
         installation if installed by HP. If Customer schedules or delays
         installation by HP more than 30 days after Delivery, the warranty
         period begins on the 31st day after Delivery.

    F.   HP warrants HP hardware Product against defects in materials and
         workmanship. HP further warrants that HP hardware Products conform to
         Specifications. These warranties do not include periodic recalibration
         (recommended for some HP Products), unless specifically covered in the
         warranty terms for such Products.

    G.   HP warrants that Software will not fail to execute its programming
         instructions due to defects in materials and workmanship when properly
         installed and used on the Device designated by HP. HP further warrants
         that HP owned standard Software will substantially conform to
         Specifications. HP does not warrant that Software will operate in
         hardware and software combinations selected by Customer, or meet
         requirements specified by Customer.

    H.   HP does not warrant that the operation of Products will be
         uninterrupted or error free.

    I.   HP warrants that each HP hardware, software, and firmware Product
         delivered under this Exhibit and HP's Terms and Conditions of Sale and
         Service will be able to accurately process date data (including, but
         not limited to, calculating, comparing, and sequencing) from, into, and
         between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and the years 1999
         and 2000, including leap year calculations, when used in accordance
         with the Product documentation provided by HP (including any
         instructions for installing patches or upgrades), provided that all
         other products (e.g. hardware, software, firmware) used in combination
         with such HP Product(s) properly exchange date data with it. If the
         Specifications require that specific HP Products must perform as a
         system in accordance with the foregoing warranty, then that warranty
         will apply to those HP Products as a system, and Customer retains sole
         responsibility to ensure the Year 2000 readiness of its information
         technology and business environment. The duration of this warranty
         extends through January 31, 2001. To the extent permitted by local law,
         this warranty applies only to branded HP Products and not to products
         manufactured by others that may be sold or distributed by HP. This
         warranty Section 21. applies only to HP Products shipped after July 01,
         1998. The remedies applicable to this Section 21., are those provided
         in Section 2J. below. Nothing in this warranty will be construed to
         limit any rights or remedies provided elsewhere in this Exhibit and
         HP's Terms and Conditions of Sale and Service with respect to matters
         other than Year 2000 compliance.

    J.   If HP receives notice of defects or non-conformance to hardware
         Specifications, or substantial non-conformance to HP owned standard
         Software Specifications during the warranty period, HP will, at its
         option, repair (and recalibrate only as necessitated by repairs), or
         replace the affected Products. If HP is unable, within a reasonable
         time, to repair, replace or correct a defect or non-conformance in a
         Product to a condition as warranted, Customer will be entitled to a
         refund of the purchase price upon prompt return of the Product to HP.
         Customer, will pay expenses for return of such Products to HP. HP will
         pay expenses for shipment of repaired or replacement Products, except
         for Products returned to Customer from another country.

    K.   HP warrants that HP Support will be provided in a professional and
         workmanlike manner. HP will replace, at no charge, parts which are
         defective and returned to HP within 90 days of delivery.

    L.   Some newly manufactured HP Products may contain and warranty service
         may use remanufactured parts, which are equivalent to new in
         performance.

    M.   The above warranties do not apply to defects resulting from improper or
         inadequate maintenance or calibration by Customer; Customer or third
         party supplied software, interfacing or supplies; unauthorized
         modification, improper use or operation outside of the Specifications
         for the Product; abuse, negligence, accident, loss or damage in
         transit; improper site preparation; or unauthorized maintenance or
         repair.

                                                                    Page 3 of 10

    N.   THE ABOVE WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND NO OTHER WARRANTY, WHETHER
         WRITTEN OR ORAL, IS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. HP SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS THE
         IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
         PURPOSE.

3.  PLACE OF PERFORMANCE

    A.   Within HP service travel areas, HP Products and certain other Products
         designated by HP, sold with On Site warranty and installation
         coverage, will be installed by HP at the Customer's facility at no
         charge. Outside HP service travel areas, warranty and installation
         services will be performed at Customer's facility only upon HP's prior
         agreement; Customer will pay HP's travel expenses and other applicable
         expenses for such services.

    B.   Products with On Site warranty will receive warranty services only at
         the initial installation site. If Products eligible for On Site
         warranty and installation services are moved from the initial
         installation site, the warranty services will be provided only if the
         Customer purchases additional inspection or installation services at
         the new site.

    C.   Products with On-Site warranty will receive warranty services outside
         the country of initial purchase if global warranty coverage applies.
         Service outside the country of initial purchase is subject to the
         conditions regarding HP service travel areas and initial installation
         site in Sections 3A. and B. above.

    D.   Products with global warranty coverage and return to HP warranty, and
         battery-powered Products, may be returned to the closest HP authorized
         repair center. All other Products with return to HP warranty must be
         returned to a HP authorized repair center within the country of
         original purchase. Customer will pay expenses for return of such
         Products to HP. HP will pay expenses for shipment of repaired or
         replacement Products, except for Products returned to Customer from
         another country.

4.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND REMEDIES

    A.   To the extent HP is held legally liable to Customer, HP's liability is
         limited to:

         1)   damages for bodily injury;

         2)   direct damages to tangible property up to a limit of U.S. one
              million dollars ($1,000,000).

    B.   Notwithstanding Section 4A. above, in no event will HP or its
         affiliates, subcontractors or suppliers be liable for any of the
         following:

         1)   actual loss or direct damage that is not listed in 4A. above;

         2)   damages for loss of data, or software restoration;

         3)   damages relating to Customer's procurement of substitute products
              or services (i.e., "cost of cover"); or

         4)   incidental, special or consequential damages (including downtime
              costs or lost profits).

    C.   THE REMEDIES IN THIS EXHIBIT AND HP's TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE AND
         SERVICE ARE CUSTOMER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES.

5.  WARRANTY AND INSTALLATION CLASSIFICATIONS

    Products receive warranty and installation services as defined in the
    Warranty and Installation Classification Table below. Peripherals,
    accessories and interfaces receive the same services as the systems to which
    they are connected when:

         1)   the Products are purchased with the system on a coordinated
              delivery and are included in the system configuration; or,

         2)   the Products are purchased as add-ons to an existing system
              covered by a HP service agreement which is extended to include the
              add-on Products.

                                                                    Page 4 of 10

1. WARRANTY

   A. WARRANTY STATEMENTS

      1. HARDWARE. HP warrants hardware Products against defects in materials
         and workmanship. HP further warrants that HP Products conform to
         Specifications in affect on the date HP ships the Product.

      2. DESIGNATED SOFTWARE AND FIRMWARE. HP warrants Software and Firmware
         Products, which are designated by HP for use with a hardware Product
         and are property installed on that hardware Product, against failures
         to execute their programming instructions due to defects in materials
         and workmanship.

      3. HP OWNED STANDARD SOFTWARE. HP warrants that HP owned standard Software
         will substantially conform to Specifications. HP does not warrant that
         Software will operate in hardware and software combinations selected by
         Direct Reseller and/or Customers, or meet requirements specified by
         Direct Resellers and/or Customers, or that the operation of Products
         will be uninterrupted or error free.

      4. YEAR 2000. HP warrants that each HP hardware, Software and firmware
         Product shipped by HP will be able to accurately process date data
         (including, but not limited to, calculating, comparing, and sequencing)
         from, into, and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and
         the years 1999 and 2000, including leap year calculations, when used in
         accordance with the Product documentation provided by HP (including any
         instructions for installing patches or upgrades), provided that all
         other products (e.g. hardware, software, firmware) used in combination
         with such HP Product(s) property exchange date data with it. If the
         Specifications require that specific HP Products must perform as a
         system in accordance with the foregoing warranty, then that warranty
         will apply to those HP Products as a system, and warranty recipients
         retain sole responsibility to ensure the Year 2000 readiness of their
         information technology and business environments.

      5. OTHER WARRANTIES. HP may provide Product specific warranties, either
         with such Products or via the following HP web site:
         http://partner.americas.hp.com/. HP revisions to such warranties will
         be effective on the date specified by HP. These warranties will take
         precedence over any conflicting terms contained in this Section 1.

   B. WARRANTY PERIODS AND PASS THROUGH PROCESSES

      1. WARRANTY PERIODS. Product warranty period and additional information is
         available with Products, on quotations, or upon request. If Direct
         Reseller does not pass through its HP warranties, the warranty period
         begins on the date of Delivery, or the date of installation if
         installed by HP. If Customer schedules or delays installation by HP
         more than thirty (30) days after Delivery, the warranty period begins
         on the thirty-first (31st) day after Delivery.

      2. PASS THROUGH PROCESSES. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement,
         Direct Reseller may pass through the warranties provided under the
         Agreement to their end-user Customers, so long as such warranty terms
         and conditions obligate HP to no greater than the following:

         a.  Warranty coverage for defective Products no greater than that
             provided in this Warranty Section and any associated Product
             Exhibit or Product Category.

         b.  Warranty exclusions and disclaimers no less than those set forth in
             this Warranty Section and any associated product Exhibit.

         c.  A duration of warranty expiring no later than the date of
             expiration of HP's warranty as provided under this Agreement; and

         d.  Limitations of remedies and liability no less than those provided
             in the Limitation of Remedies and Liability Section of this
             Agreement.

         Direct Reseller must provide a copy of the currently effective HP
         warranty to its end-user Customer prior to the downstream sale. A copy
         of the current version of HP's Warranty and Installation Information
         (also known as "E-26") is attached as an addendum to this Agreement and
         may be provided by Direct Reseller to its end-user Customer, provided
         that Direct Reseller is responsible for ensuring that it provides the
         current version of E-26. In addition, Direct Reseller may provide more
         extensive warranty coverage to its end-user Customers, so long as HP
         has no responsibility for fulfilling the associated obligations.

      3. PASS THROUGH WARRANTY PERIOD. Where Direct Reseller uses the pass
         through processes described above, Products ordered by Direct Reseller
         and temporarily retained in inventory are warranted beginning with the
         shipment date from HP and ending with shipment to the end-user
         Customer, for a period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days from
         date of original purchase from HP by Direct Reseller. "User-Warranties"
         apply only to end-user purchasers of Products. End-user Customer
         warranties begin upon purchase by the end-user Customer and must be
         verified by proof of acquisition by such Customer.

      4. YEAR 2000 WARRANTY PERIOD. The duration of the Year 2000 warranty set
         forth in subsection 1.A.4 above extends through January 31, 2001.

   C. REMEDIES

      If HP receives notice of defects or non-conformance to the warranties
      provided in this Agreement during the applicable warranty period, HP will,
      at its option, repair, or replace the affected Products. If HP is unable,
      within a reasonable time, to repair, replace or correct a defect or non-
      conformance in a Product to a condition as warranted, Customer will be
      entitled to a refund of the purchase price upon prompt return of the
      Product to HP. Customer will pay expenses for return of such Products to
      HP. HP will pay expenses for shipment of repaired or replacement Products.

   D. WARRANTY EXCEPTIONS

      1. HP does not warrant that the operation of Products will be
         uninterrupted or error free.

      2. The warranties provided in subsections 1.A. through 1.H. above do not
         include periodic recalibration, recommended for some Products, unless
         specifically covered in the warranty terms for such Product.

      3. Some newly manufactured Products may contain, and in supporting such
         Products HP may use, remanufactured

                                                                     Page 5 of 8
<PAGE>

            parts which are equivalent to new in performance.

        4.  The Year 2000 warranty provided in subsection 1.A.4 above applies
            only to branded HP Products and not to products manufactured by
            others that may be sold or distributed by HP.

    E.  WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS

        The warranties provided in subsections 1.A. through 1.H. above will not
        apply to damages resulting from abuse, misuse, negligence, accident,
        loss or damage in transit, or other Product warranty exclusion, or from
        attempted repair by an unauthorized technician. Direct Reseller will
        reimburse HP for all freight expenses for any of the foregoing Products
        returned to HP, or for any returned Products determined by HP to be free
        from defect. Such HP Products may be shipped back to Direct Reseller,
        and Direct Reseller will be responsible for associated freight charges.
        Title to the Products and risk of loss will pass to Direct Reseller at
        HP's shipping point (Free On Board at Origin; "F.O.B. Origin").

    F.  WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS

        THE ABOVE WARRANTIES ARE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE, AND NO OTHER WARRANTY,
        WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, IS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED HP SPECIFICALLY
        DISCLAIMS THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
        PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

2.  SUPPORT

    A.  Direct Reseller may order Support from HP's then current Support
        offering, which is set forth in the attached U.S. Solutions Support
        Options Addendum. Orders for Support are subject to the terms of this
        Agreement, including the Support Exhibit or quotation in effect on the
        date of order. Direct Reseller is responsible for obtaining the
        agreement of its end-user Customer with respect to any Support
        obligations under this Agreement that pertain to such Customer.

    B.  To be eligible for Support, Products must be at current specified
        revision levels and, in HP's reasonable opinion, in good operating
        condition.

    C.  HP may, at no additional charge, modify Products to improve operation,
        supportability and reliability, or to meet legal requirements.

    D.  Relocation of Products is the end-user Customer's responsibility.
        Relocation may result in additional Support charges and modified service
        response times. Support of Products moved to another country is subject
        to availability.

    E.  HP will provide Support for products not supplied by HP when approved by
        HP in writing. HP will provide Support for HP Products when the end-user
        Customer allows HP to perform modifications if requested by HP under
        Section 2.C. above. Such Customer is responsible for removing any
        products not eligible for Support to allow HP to perform Support
        services. If Support services are made more difficult because of such
        product(s), HP will charge such Customer for the extra work at HP's
        standard rates.

    F.  Support does not cover any damage or failure caused by:

        1.  Use of non-HP media, supplies and other products; or

        2.  Site conditions that do not conform to HP's site specifications; or

        3.  Neglect, improper use, fire or water damage, electrical
            disturbances, transportation by Direct Reseller or its end-user
            Customer, work or modification by people other than HP employees or
            subcontractors, or other causes beyond HP's control; or

          1. Premises and Term. In consideration of the obligation of Tenant to

and covenants hereof, Landlord hereby demises and leases to Tenant, and Tenant
hereby takes from Landlord certain premises situated within the County of
Gloucester, State of New Jersey, more particularly described on EXHIBIT "A"
attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, together with all rights,
privileges, easements, appurtenances, and immunities belonging to or in any way
pertaining to the premises and together with the buildings and other

          B. In addition, Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord on the date
hereof the sum of Fifty One Thousand Dollars ($51,000), which sum shall be held
                  --------------------------  -------
by Landlord, as security for the performance of Tenant's covenants and
obligations under this lease, it being expressly understood and agreed that such
deposit is not an advance rental deposit or a measure of Landlord's damages in
case of Tenant's default. If Tenant provides Landlord with Tenant's taxpayer
identification number and completes such confirmation forms as Landlord's bank
may require, Landlord will hold the security deposit in a separate interest
bearing account, with interest to accrue and be held and applied as part of the
principal of such security deposit. Upon the occurrence of any event of default
by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other
remedy provided herein or provided by law, use such fund to the extent necessary
to make good any arrears of rent or other payments due Landlord hereunder, and
any other damage, injury, expense or liability caused by such event of default;
and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to
restore the security deposit to its original amount. Tenant shall not assign,
pledge or otherwise encumber the security deposit. Provided that Tenant is not
then in default hereunder, on the third anniversary of the commencement date
Landlord shall return the security deposit, together with the interest thereon,
to Tenant.

          3. Use. The premises shall be used only for the purpose of receiving,

thereof at any time, is prohibited without Landlord's prior written consent,
provided that the overnight parking of tractor trailers perpendicular to and
abutting Tenant's loading docks is permitted. Tenant shall at its own cost and
expense obtain any and all licenses and permits necessary for any such use.
Tenant shall comply with all governmental laws, ordinances and regulations
applicable to the use of the premises, and shall promptly comply with all
governmental orders and directives for the correction, prevention and abatement
of nuisances in or upon, or connected with, the premises, all at Tenant's sole
expense. Tenant shall not permit any objectionable or unpleasant odors, smoke,
dust, gas, noise or vibrations to emanate from the premises, nor take any other
actior. which would constitute a nuisance or would disturb or endanger any other
tenants of the building in which the premises are situated or unreasonably
interfere with their use of their respective premises. Without Landlord's prior
written consent, Tenant shall not receive, store or otherwise handle any
product, material or merchandise which is explosive or highly inflammable.
Tenant will not permit the premises to be used for any purpose or in any manner
(including without limitation any method of storage) which would render the
insurance thereon void or the insurance risk more hazardous or cause the State
Board of Insurance or other insurance authority to disallow any sprinkler
credits. If any increase in the fire and extended coverage insurance premiums
paid by Landlord for the building in which Tenant occupies space is caused by
Tenant's use and occupancy of the premises, or if Tenant vacates the premises
and causes an increase in such premiums, then Tenant shall pay as additional
rental the amount of such increase to Landlord.

          7. Alterations. Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or
improvements to the premises (including but not limited to roof and wall
penetrations) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld if the proposed alteration, addition or improvement
is non-structural, is not visible from the exterior of the building and does not
affect any building system. Tenant may, without the consent of Landlord, but at
its own cost and expense and in a good workmanlike manner erect such shelves,
bins, machinery and trade fixtures as it may deem advisable, without altering
the basic character of the building or improvements and without overloading or
damaging such building or improvements, and in each case complying with all
applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements.
All alterations, additions, improvements and partitions erected by Tenant shall
be and remain the property of Tenant during the term of this lease and Tenant
shall, if Landlord so elects as hereinafter provided, remove all alterations,
additions, improvements and partitions erected by Tenant and restore the
premises to their original condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, by the
date of termination of this lease or upon earlier vacating of the premises;
otherwise such alterations, additions, improvements and partitions shall become
the property of Landlord as of the date of termination of this lease or upon
earlier vacating of the premises and shall be delivered up to the Landlord with
the premises. All shelves, bins machinery and trade fixtures installed by Tenant
may be removed by

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

Tenant prior to the termination of this lease if Tenant so elects, and shall be
removed by the date of termination of this lease or upon earlier vacating of the
premises if required by Landlord: upon any such removal Tenant shall restore
the premises to their original condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted. All
such removals and restoration shall be accomplished in a good workmanlike manner
so as not to damage the primary structure or structural qualities of the
buildings and other improvements situated on the premises. If requested to do so
by Tenant in writing at the time Tenant requests Landlord's consent to a
proposed alteration, addition or improvement, Landlord will indicate in its
consent to the proposed alteration, addition or improvement (assuming that
Landlord otherwise consents thereto) whether Landlord will require the removal
of such alteration, addition or improvement upon the termination of this Lease.
Otherwise, Landlord may elect to require Tenant to remove any alteration,
addition or improvement made by Tenant to the premises, or all or any part of
Landlord's Work or Tenant's Work (as provided in Paragraph 31) by giving
written notice to Tenant at any time prior to termination of this lease
specifying the alterations, additions and/or improvements to be removed.

          8. Signs. Tenant shall have the right to install signs upon the
premises only when first approved in writing by Landlord and subject to any
applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements.
Tenant shall have the right to install, at its expense, a window-mounted sign
next to Tenant's building entrance in compliance with the standard signage
program in effect at Forest Park, which provides for the installation of one 2
1/2 foot by 2 1/2 foot plaque. Tenant shall remove all such signs by the
termination of this lease. Such installations and removals shall be made in such
manner as to avoid injury or defacement of the building and other improvements,
and Tenant shall repair any injury or defacement, including without limitation,
discoloration caused by such installation and/or removal.

          9. Inspection. Landlord and Landlord's agents and representatives
shall have the right to enter and inspect the premises at any reasonable time
during business hours, upon reasonable advance notice (except in the case of
emergency) for the purpose of ascertaining the condition of the premises or in
order to make such repairs as may be required or permitted to be made by
Landlord under the terms of this lease. During the period that is six (6) months
prior to the end of the term hereof, Landlord and Landlord's agents and
representatives shall have the right to enter the premises at any reasonable
time during business hours for the purpose of showing the premises and shall
have the right to erect on the premises a suitable sign indicating the premises
are available. Tenant shall arrange to meet with Landlord for a joint inspection
of the premises at least thirty (30) days prior to Tenant's vacating the
premises. In the event of Tenant's failure to arrange such joint inspection,
Landlord's inspection at or after Tenant's vacating the premises shall be
conclusively deemed correct for the purposes of determining Tenant's
responsibility for repairs and restoration.

          10. Utilities. Landlord agrees to provide at its cost water,
electricity and telephone service connections into the premises, but Tenant
shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, sewer, sprinkler
charges and other utilities and services used on or from the premises, together
with any taxes, penalties, surcharges or the like pertaining thereto and any
maintenance charges for utilities and shall furnish all electric light bulbs and
tubes. Gas and electric service shall be separately metered to the premises and
Tenant shall contract directly with the utilities for such services. With
respect to water, sewer and any other service not separately metered to the
premises, Tenant shall pay a reasonable proportion as determined by Landlord of
all charges jointly metered

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

with other premises. Landlord shall in no event be liable for any interruption
or failure of utility services on the premises.

          "In the event water is not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant agrees
that it will not use water for uses other than normal restroom usage; and,
Tenant does further agree to reimburse Landlord for the entire amount of common
water costs as additional rental if, in fact, Tenant uses water for uses other
than normal restroom uses without first obtaining Landlord's written permission.

          "Tenant agrees it will not use sewer capacity for any use other than
normal, domestic restroom use. Tenant further agrees to notify Landlord of any
other sewer use ("excess sewer use") and also agrees to reimburse Landlord for
the costs and expenses related to Tenant's excess sewer use, which shall
include, but is expressly herein not limited to the cost of acquiring additional
sewer capacity to service Tenant's lease."

          11. Assignment and Subletting. Tenant shall not have the right to
assign, sublet, transfer or encumber this lease, or any interest therein,
without the prior written consent of Landlord. Landlord shall not unreasonably
withhold or delay its consent to an assignment of this lease or a subletting of
the premises provided that: (i) the proposed user shall be of a character, and
shall be engaged in a business, in keeping with the commercial standards
generally applied by Landlord for new tenants in Forest Park, (ii) the proposed
user shall have a financial condition in keeping with the commercial standards
generally applied by Landlord for new tenants in Forest Park; (iii) the proposed
assignee or subtenant shall not then be occupying other space in the Building,
and as a result would cease to occupy such space, nor shall it be a prospective
tenant then negotiating with Landlord for comparable sized space; (iv) the
proposed user shall not have parking requirements in excess of the parking made
available to Tenant under this Lease; (v) Tenant shall not publicly advertise
(whether through mail solicitation of brokers or otherwise) Tenant's net offered
rent if such rent is less than the net effective rent then being offered by
Landlord for new leases of space in Forest Park; and (vi) the documents creating
the sublease or assignment, and the nature of the fixtures and improvements to
be performed or installed, shall be subject to Landlord's approval, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet
the Premises without the need for Landlord's consent, but upon written notice to
Landlord, to a corporation that is the parent or subsidiary corporation of
Tenant or a subsidiary of Tenant's parent.

          Any attempted assignment, subletting, transfer or encumbrance by
Tenant in violation of the terms and covenants of this Paragraph shall be void.
Fifty percent (50%) of the proceeds as exceed the rentals called for hereunder
in the case of a subletting and fifty percent (50%) all cash or other proceeds
of any other transfer of Tenant's interest in this lease shall be paid to
Landlord, whether such assignment, subletting or other transfer is consented to
by Landlord or not, unless Landlord agrees to the contrary in writing, and
Tenant hereby assigns all rights it might have or ever acquire in any such
proceeds to Landlord. Any assignment, subletting or other transfer of Tenant's
interest in this lease shall be for an amount equal to the then fair market
value of such interest. These covenants shall run with the land and shall bind
Tenant and Tenant's heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives,
representatives in any bankruptcy proceeding, successors and assigns. Any
assignee, sublessee or transferee of Tenant's interest in this lease (all such
assignees, sublessees and transferees being hereinafter referred to as
"successors"), by assuming Tenant's obligations hereunder shall assume liability
to Landlord for all amounts paid to

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

persons other than Landlord by such successors in contravention of the
Paragraph. No assignment, subletting or other transfer, whether consented to by
Landlord or not, shall relieve Tenant of its liability hereunder. Upon the
occurrence of an "event of default" as hereinafter defined, if the premises or
any part thereof are then assigned or sublet, Landlord, in addition to any other
remedies herein provided, or provided by law, may at its option collect directly
from such assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due to Tenant under such
assignment or sublease and apply such rent against any sums due to Landlord from
Tenant hereunder, and no such collection shall be construed to constitute a
novation or a release of Tenant from the further performance of Tenant's
obligations hereunder.

          12. Fire and Casualty Damage.
          A. Landlord agrees to maintain standard fire and extended coverage
insurance covering the building of which the premises are a part with an
insurance company rated A-VII or better by AM Best's Insurance Reports, in an
amount not less than 80% (or such greater percentage as may be necessary to
comply with provisions of any co-insurance clauses of the policy) of the
"replacement cost" thereof as such term is defined in the Replacement Cost
Endorsement to be attached thereto, insuring against the perils of Fire,
Lightning and Extended Coverage, such coverages and endorsements to be as
defined, provided and limited in the standard bureau forms prescribed by the
insurance regulatory authority for the State in which there premises are
situated for use by insurance companies admitted in such state for the writing
of such insurance on risks located within such state. Subject to the provisions
of subparagraphs 12(C), 12(D), and 12(E) below, such insurance shall be for the
sole benefit of Landlord and under its sole control.

          B. If the buildings situated upon the premises should be damaged or
destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate
written notice thereof to Landlord.

          C. If the buildings situated upon the premises should be totally
destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, or if they should be so damaged
thereby the rebuilding or repairs cannot in Landlord's estimation be completed
within one hundred sixty five (165) days after the date upon which Landlord is
notified by Tenant of such damage, then either party shall have the option to
terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other within ten (10) days
after Landlord gives Tenant Landlord's written estimate of the time required to
repair the damage. If a party elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to the
preceding sentence, such termination shall be effective from the date of the
occurrence of such damage, and rent shall abate from such date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if Landlord elects to terminate this Lease under this
subparagraph, Tenant shall have the right to nullify such election by giving
Landlord written notice within five (5) days after receipt of Landlord's
termination notice, whereby Tenant agrees to extend the term of this Lease as
necessary to ensure that the remaining term of this Lease after completion of
the repair and restoration will be not less than five (5) years. If Tenant gives
this notice nullifying Landlord's termination notice, Landlord shall then
diligently pursue repair and restoration of the premises, using commercially
reasonable efforts to complete repair and restoration within the period
estimated by Landlord.

          D. If the buildings situated upon the premises should be damaged by
any peril covered by the insurance to be provided by Landlord under subparagraph
12(A) above, but only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can in
Landlord's estimation be completed within one hundred sixty five (165) days
after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant or otherwise receives
notice of such damage, this lease shall not terminate, and Landlord shall at it
sole cost and expense thereupon

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair such buildings to
substantially the condition in which they existed prior to such damage, except
that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of
the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements which may have been
placed in, on, or about the premises by Tenant. Landlord shall advise Tenant,
within sixty (60) days after notice to Landlord of such damage, of Landlord's
estimate of the time required to repair the damage. If the premises are
untenantable in whole or in part following such damage (including portions of
the premises that are unusable due to damage to other portions of the premises),
the rent payable hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable
shall be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the
circumstances. In the event that Landlord should fail to diligently pursue such
repairs and rebuilding within one hundred sixty five (165) days after the date
upon which Landlord is notified of such damage, Tenant may at its option
terminate this lease by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord as
Tenant's exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall
cease and terminate.

          E. Anything in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Landlord
and Tenant hereby waive and release each other of and from any and all rights of
recovery, claim, action or cause of action, against each other, their agents,
officers and employees, for any loss or damage that may occur to the premises,
improvements to the building of which the premises are a part, or personal
property (building contents) within the building, by reason of fire or the
elements regardless of cause or origin, including negligence of Landlord or
Tenant and their agents, officers and employees, but only to the extent of the
insurance proceeds payable under the policies of insurance covering the property
or required to cover the property by the terms of this lease. Because this
subparagraph will preclude the assignment of any claim mentioned in it by way of
subrogation (or otherwise) to an insurance company (or any other person), each
party to this lease agrees immediately to give to each insurance company which
has issued to it policies of fire and extended coverage insurance, written
notice of the terms of the mutual waivers contained in this subparagraph, and to
have the insurance policies properly endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the
invalidation of the insurance coverages by reason of the mutual waivers
contained in this subparagraph.

          13. Liability. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or Tenant's
employees, agents, patrons or visitors, or to any other person whomsoever, for
any injury to person or damage to property on or about the premises, resulting
from and/or caused in part or whole by the negligence or misconduct of Tenant,
its agents, servants or employees, or of any other person entering upon the
premises, or caused by the buildings and improvements located on the premises
becoming out of repair, or caused by leakage of gas, oil, water or steam or by
electricity emanating from the premises, or due to any cause whatsoever, and
Tenant hereby covenants and agrees that it will at all times indemnify and hold
safe and harmless the property, the Landlord (including without limitation the
trustee and beneficiaries if Landlord is a trust), Landlord's agents and
employees from any loss, liability, claims, suits, costs, expenses, including
without limitation attorney's fees and damages, both real and alleged, arising
out of any such damage or injury; except injury to persons or damage to property
to the extent caused by the negligence of Landlord or the failure to Landlord to
repair any part of the premises which Landlord is obligated to repair and
maintain hereunder within a reasonable time after the receipt of written notice
from Tenant or any governmental authority having jurisdiction of needed repairs.
Tenant shall procure and maintain throughout the term of this lease a policy or
policies of insurance, at its sole cost and expense, insuring both Landlord and
Tenant against all claims, demands or actions arising out of or in

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

connection with: (i) the premises; (ii) the condition of the premises; (iii)
Tenant's operations in and maintenance and use of the premises; and (iv)
Tenant's liability assumed under this lease, the limits of such policy or
policies to be in the amount of not less than $ 1,000,000 per occurrence in
respect of injury to persons (including death), and in the amount of not less
than $500,000 per occurrence in respect of property damage or destruction,
including loss of use thereof. All such policies shall be procured by Tenant
from responsible insurance companies satisfactory to Landlord. Certified copies
of such policies, together with receipt evidencing payment of premiums therefor,
shall be delivered to Landlord prior to the commencement date of this lease. Not
less than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration date of any such policies,
certified copies of the renewals thereof, bearing notations evidencing the
payment of renewal premiums shall be delivered to Landlord. Such policies shall
further provide that not less than thirty (30) days written notice shall be
given to Landlord before such policy may be canceled or changed to reduce
insurance provided thereby.

          14. Condemnation.
          A. If the whole or any substantial part as determined by Landlord of
the premises should be taken for any public or quasi-public use under
governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by
private purchase in lieu thereof and the taking would prevent or materially
interfere with the use of the premises for the purpose for which they are being
used, as determined by Landlord this lease shall terminate and the rent shall be
abated during the unexpired portion of this lease, effective when the physical
taking of said premises shall occur.

          B. If part of the premises shall be taken for any public or quasi-
public use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of
eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, and this lease is not
terminated as provided in the subparagraph above, this lease shall not terminate
but the rent payable hereunder during the unexpired portion of this lease shall
be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the
circumstances.

          C. In the event of any such taking or private purchase in lieu
thereof, Landlord and Tenant shall each be entitled to receive and retain such
separate awards as may be allocated to their respective interests in any
condensation proceedings.

          15. Holding Over. Tenant will, at the termination of this lease by
lapse of time or otherwise, yield up immediate possession to Landlord. If
Landlord agrees in writing that Tenant may hold over after the expiration or
termination of this lease, unless the parties hereto otherwise agree in writing
on the terms of such holding over, the hold over tenancy shall be subject to
termination by Landlord at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days advance
written notice, or by Tenant at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days
advance written notice, and all of the other terms and provisions of this lease
shall be applicable during that period, except that Tenant shall pay Landlord
from time to time upon demand, as rental for the period of any hold over, an
amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the rent in effect on the
termination date, computed on a daily basis for each day of the hold over
period. No holding over by Tenant, whether with or without consent of Landlord,
shall operate to extend this lease except as otherwise expressly provided. The
preceding provisions of this paragraph 15 shall not be construed as consent for
Tenant to hold over.

                                     -10-
<PAGE>

          16. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants that it now has, or will
acquire before Tenant takes possession of the premises, good title to the
premises, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, excepting only the lien
for current taxes not yet due, such mortgage or mortgages as are permitted by
the terms of this lease, zoning ordinances and other building and fire
ordinances and governmental regulations relating to the use of such property,
and easements, restrictions and other conditions of record. In the event this
lease is a sublease, then Tenant agrees to take the premises subject to the
provision of the prior teases. Landlord represents and warrants that it has full
right and authority to enter into this lease and that Tenant, upon paying the
rental herein set forth and performing its other covenants and agreements herein
set forth, shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the premises for the
term hereof without hindrance or molestation from Landlord, subject to the terms
and provisions of this lease.

          17. Events of Default. The following events shall be deemed to be
events of default by Tenant under this lease:
          (a) Tenant shall fail to pay any installment of the rent herein
reserved when due, or any payment with respect to operating expenses hereunder
when due, or any other payment or reimbursement to Landlord required herein when
due, and such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) days following
notice from Landlord that such payment is due; provided that Landlord shall not
be obligated to provide Tenant notice of non-payment of rent more than two times
in any twelve month period; for the balance of such twelve month period an event
of default shall have occurred if a payment of rent is more than five (5) days
past due, with or without notice from Landlord.

          (b) Tenant shall become insolvent, or shall make a transfer in fraud
of creditors, or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors.

          (c) Tenant shall file a petition under any section or chapter of the
United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or under any similar law or statute
of the United States or and State thereof; or an order for relief shall be
entered against Tenant in any proceedings filed against Tenant thereunder.

          (d) A receiver or trustee shall be appointed for all or substantially
all of the assets of Tenant.

          (e) Tenant shall vacate all or a substantial portion of the premises
without prior written notice to Landlord, whether or not Tenant is in default of
the rental payments due under this lease.

          (f) Tenant shall fail to discharge any lien placed upon the premises
in violation of Paragraph 21 hereof within thirty (30) days after any such lien
or encumbrance is filed against the premises.

          (g) Tenant shall fail to comply with any term, provision or covenant
of this lease (other than the foregoing in this Paragraph 17), and shall not
cure such failure within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to
Tenant, provided that if such failure is curable but not within thirty (30)
        --------
days, Tenant shall have such longer period (not to exceed ninety (90) days in
the aggregate) that may be reasonably required to cure such failure, provided
that Tenant commences such cure within the original thirty (30) day period and
thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion.

                                     -11-
<PAGE>

          18. Remedies.

          A. Upon the occurrence of any of such events of default described in
Paragraph 17 hereof, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of
the following remedies without any notice or demand whatsoever:
               (a) Terminate this lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately
surrender the premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails so to do, Landlord may,
without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or
arrearage in rent, enter upon and take possession of the premises by legal
process and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying
such premises or any part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any
claim of damages therefor.

               (b) Enter upon and take possession of the premises by legal
process and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying
such premises or any part thereof without being liable for prosecution or any
claim for damages therefor, and relet the premises and receive the rent
therefor.

               (c) Enter upon the premises by legal process without being liable
for prosecution or any claim for damages therefor, and do whatever Tenant is
obligated to do under the terms of this lease; and Tenant agrees to reimburse
Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting
compliance with Tenant's obligations under this lease, and Tenant further agrees
that Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to the Tenant from
such action. In the event Landlord may elect to regain possession of the
premises by a forcible detainer proceeding, Tenant hereby specifically waives
any statutory notice which may be required prior to any such proceeding, and
agrees that Landlord's execution of this lease is, in part, consideration for
this waiver.

In the event Landlord may elect to regain possession of the premises by a
forcible detainer proceeding. Tenant hereby specifically waives any statutory
notice which may be required prior to any such proceeding, and agrees that
Landlord's execution of this lease is, in part, consideration for this waiver.

In the event Tenant fails to pay any installment of rent hereunder and such
failure continues for ten (10) days after such installment is due, to help
defray the additional cost to Landlord for processing such late payments, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord, on demand, a late charge in an amount equal to five
percent (5%) of such installment; and the failure to pay such amount within ten
(10) days after demand therefor shall be an event of default hereunder. The
provision for such late charge shall be in addition to all of Landlord's other
rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as liquidated
damages or as limiting Landlord's remedies in any manner.

          B. Exercise by Landlord of any one or more remedies hereunder granted
or otherwise available shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of surrender of
the premises by Tenant, whether by agreement or by operation of law, it being
understood that such surrender can be effected only by the written agreement of
Landlord and Tenant. No such removal or other exercise of dominion by Landlord
over the property of Tenant or others at the premises shall be deemed
unauthorized or constitute a conversion, Tenant hereby consenting, after any
event of default, to the aforesaid repossession and all claims by Tenant
therefor are hereby waived, as are all claims for damages by reason of any
distress warrant, forcible detainer proceedings, sequestration proceedings or
other legal process. Tenant agrees that any re-entry by Landlord may be pursuant
to judgment obtained

                                     -12-
<PAGE>

in forcible detainer proceedings or other legal proceedings as Landlord may
elect, and Landlord shall not be liable in trespass or otherwise.

          C. In the event Landlord elects to terminate the lease by reason of an
event of default, then notwithstanding such termination, Tenant shall be liable
for and shall pay to Landlord, at the address specified for notice to Landlord
herein, the sum of all rental and other indebtedness accrued to date of such
termination, plus, as damages, an amount equal to the difference between (i) the
total rental hereunder for the remaining portion of the lease term (had such
term not been terminated by Landlord prior to the date of expiration stated in
Paragraph 1) and (ii) the then present value of the then fair rental values of
the premises for such period.

          D. In the event that Landlord elects to repossess the premises without
terminating the lease, then Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay to
Landlord, at the address specified for notice to Landlord herein, all rental and
other indebtedness accrued to the date of such repossession, plus rental
required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord during the remainder of the lease term
until the date of expiration of the term as stated in Paragraph 1 diminished
by any net sums thereafter received by Landlord through reletting the premises
during said period (after deducting expenses incurred by Landlord as provided in
subparagraph 17(E) below). In no event shall Tenant be entitled to any excess of
any rental obtained by relenting over and above the rental herein reserved.
Actions to collect amounts due by Tenant to Landlord under this subparagraph may
be brought from time to time, on one or more occasions, without the necessity of
Landlord's waiting until expiration of the lease term.

          E. In case of any event of default or breach by Tenant, Tenant shall
also be liable for and shall pay to Landlord, at the address specified for
notice to Landlord herein, in addition to any sum provided to be paid above,
brokers' fees incurred by Landlord in connection with reletting the whole or any
part of the premises; the costs of removing and storing Tenant's or other
occupant's property; the costs of repairing, altering, remodeling or otherwise
putting the premises into condition acceptable to a new tenant or tenants; and
all reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in enforcing or defending
Landlord's rights and/or remedies including reasonable attorney's fees which
shall be not less than five percent (5%) of all sums then owing by Tenant to
Landlord whether suit is actually filed or not.

          F. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to relet the
premises (or, in Landlord's reasonable discretion, a part thereof) for the
account of Tenant for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the
period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this
lease) and on such conditions (which may include concessions or free rent) and
for such uses as Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, may determine, and
Landlord may collect and receive any rents payable by reason of such reletting.
For purposes of such mitigation, Landlord need not attempt to lease the Premises
prior to the lease of other vacant space in Forest Park, shall not be required
to accept a tenant for less than the entire space, and shall not be required to
accept any tenant offered by Tenant or observe any instruction given by Tenant
about such reletting. For the purpose of such reletting, Landlord may decorate
or make repairs, changes, alterations or additions in or to the premises or any
part thereof to the extent deemed by Landlord desirable or convenient, and the
reasonable cost of such decoration, repairs, changes, alterations or additions
shall be charged to and be payable by Tenant as additional rent hereunder, as
well as any reasonable brokerage and legal fees expended by Landlord. In the
event of any dispute over whether Landlord

                                     -13-
<PAGE>

exercised commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate damages, the burden of
proof shall be on Tenant.

          G. If Tenant should fail to make any payment or cure any default
hereunder within the time herein permitted, Landlord, without being under any
obligation to do so and without thereby waiving such default, may make such
payment and/or remedy such other default for the account of Tenant (and enter
the premises for such purpose), and thereupon Tenant shall be obligated to, and
hereby agrees, to pay Landlord, upon demand, all costs, expenses and
disbursements (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by Landlord in
taking such remedial action.

          H. In the event of any default by Landlord, Tenant's exclusive remedy
shall be an action for damages (Tenant hereby waiving the benefit of any laws
granting it a lien upon the property of Landlord and/or upon rent due Landlord),
but prior to any such action Tenant will give Landlord written notice specifying
such default with particularity, and Landlord shall thereupon have ten (10) days
in which to commence and thereafter diligently pursue the cure of any such
default. Unless and until Landlord fails to so cure any default after such
notice, Tenant shall not have any remedy or cause of action by reason thereof.
All obligations of Landlord hereunder will be construed as covenants, not
conditions; and all such obligations will be binding upon Landlord only during
the period of its possession of the premises and not thereafter. The term
"Landlord" shall mean only the owner, for the time being of the premises, and in
the event of the transfer by such owner of its interest in the premises, such
owner shall thereupon be released and discharged from all covenants and
obligations of the Landlord thereafter accruing, but such covenants and
obligations shall be binding during the lease term upon each new owner for the
duration of such owner's ownership. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof,
Landlord shall not have any personal liability hereunder. In the event of any
breach or default by Landlord in any term or provision of this lease, Tenant
agrees to look solely to the equity or interest then owned by Landlord in the
premises; however, in no event, shall any deficiency judgement or any money
judgement of any kind be sought or obtained against any party Landlord.

          I. In the event that Landlord shall have taken possession of the
premises pursuant to the authority herein granted then Landlord shall have the
right to keep in place and use all of the furniture, fixtures and equipment at
the premises, including that which is owned by or leased to Tenant at all times
prior to any foreclosure thereon by Landlord or repossession thereof by any
lessor thereof or third party having a lien thereon. Landlord shall also have
the right to remove from the premises (without the necessity of obtaining a
distress warrant, writ of sequestration or other legal process) all or any
portion of such furniture, fixtures, equipment and other property located
thereon and to place same in storage at any premises within the County in which
the premises is located; and in such event, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord
for costs incurred by Landlord in connection with such removal storage. Landlord
shall also have the right to relinquish possession of all or any portion of such
furniture, fixtures, equipment and other property to any person ("Claimant")
claiming to be entitled to possession thereof who presents to Landlord a copy of
any instrument represented to Landlord by Claimant to have been executed by
Tenant (or any predecessor of Tenant) granting Claimant the right under various
circumstances to take possession of such furniture, fixtures, equipment or other
property, without the necessity on the part of Landlord to inquire into the
authenticity of said instrument's copy of Tenant's or Tenant's predecessor's
signature thereon and without the necessity of Landlord making any nature of
investigation or inquiry as to the validity of the factual or legal basis upon
which Claimant purports

                                     -14-
<PAGE>

to act; and Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all cost,
expense, loss, damage and liability incident to Landlord's relinquishment of
possession of all or any portion of such furniture, fixtures, equipment or other
property to Claimant. The rights of Landlord herein stated shall be in addition
to any and all other rights which Landlord has or may hereafter have at law or
in equity; and Tenant stipulates and agrees that the rights herein granted
Landlord are commercially reasonable.

          19. Waiver of Landlord's Lien. Landlord waives its statutory lien
rights in Tenant's personal property. At Tenant's request Landlord shall execute
such documents as may be reasonably required to confirm the waiver in favor of
any lender or equipment lessor providing financing or leasing equipment to
Tenant. Tenant shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of
Landlord's counsel for the review and negotiation of any such requested
documentation.

          20. Mortgages. Tenant accepts this lease subject and subordinate to
any mortgage(s) and/or deed(s) of trust now or at any time hereafter
constituting a lien or charge upon the premises or the improvements situated
thereon, provided, however, that if the mortgagee, trustee, or holder of any
such mortgage or deed of trust elects to have Tenant's interest in this lease
superior to any such instrument in whole or in part, then by notice to Tenant,
from such mortgagee, trustee or holder, this lease shall be deemed superior to
such lien, whether this lease was executed before or after said mortgage or deed
of trust. Tenant shall at any time hereafter on demand execute any instruments,
releases or other documents which may be required by any mortgagee for the
purpose of subjecting and subordinating this lease or making this lease superior
to the lien of any such mortgage.

          Anything contained in this Paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding,
the subordination of this Lease to any future mortgage encumbering the Building
is conditioned upon the mortgagee's agreement that Tenant shall not be disturbed
in its possession of the Premises pursuant to the terms of this Lease. Such non-
disturbance covenant shall be evidenced by the mortgagee's standard
subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement, which Tenant agrees to
execute, provided such agreement does not impose upon Tenant any obligations in
excess of those obligations assumed by Tenant under this lease. Landlord
represents and warrants to Tenant that as of the date of this lease there are no
mortgages encumbering the Building.

          21. Mechanic's Liens and Tenant's Personal Property Taxes.
          A. Tenant shall have no authority, express or implied, to create or
place any lien or encumbrance of any kind or nature whatsoever upon, or in any
manner to bind, the interest of Landlord or Tenant in the premises or to charge
the rentals payable hereunder for any claim in favor of any person dealing with
Tenant, including those who may furnish materials or perform labor for any
construction or repairs. Tenant covenants and agrees that it will pay or cause
to be paid all sums legally due and payable by it on account of any labor
performed or materials furnished in connection with any work performed on the
premises on which any lien is or can be validly and legally asserted against its
leasehold interest in the premises or the improvements thereon and that it will
save and hold Landlord harmless from any and all loss, cost or expense based on
or arising out of asserted claims or liens against the leasehold estate or
against the right, title and interest of the Landlord in the premises or under
the terms of this lease. Tenant agrees to give Landlord immediate written notice
of the placing of any lien or encumbrance against the premises.

                                     -15-
<PAGE>

          B. Tenant shall be liable for all taxes levied or assessed against
personal property, furniture or fixtures placed by Tenant in the premises. If
any such taxes for which Tenant is liable are levied or assessed against
Landlord or Landlord's property and if Landlord elects to pay the same or if the
assessed value of Landlord's property is increased by inclusion of personal
property, furniture or fixtures placed by Tenant in the premises, and Landlord
elects to pay the taxes based on such increase, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
upon demand that part of such taxes.

          22. Notices. Each provision of this instrument or of any applicable
governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements with reference
to the sending, mailing or delivery of any notice or the making of any payment
by Landlord to Tenant or with reference to the sending, mailing or delivery of
any notice or the making of any payment by Tenant to Landlord shall be deemed to
be complied with when and if the following steps are taken:

               (a) All rent and other payments required to be made by Tenant to
          Landlord hereunder shall be payable to Landlord at the address for
          Landlord hereinbelow set forth or at such other address as Landlord
          may specify from time to time by written notice delivered in
          accordance herewith. Tenant's obligation to pay rent and any other
          amounts to Landlord under the terms of this lease shall not be deemed
          satisfied until such rent and other amounts have been actually
          received by Landlord.

               (b) All payments required to be made by Landlord to Tenant
          hereunder shall be payable to Tenant at the address hereinbelow set
          forth, or at such other address within the continental United States
          as Tenant may specify from time to time by written notice delivered in
          accordance herewith.

               (c) With the exception of Paragraph 21(a) above, any notice or
          document required or permitted to be delivered hereunder shall be
          deemed to be delivered whether actually received or not when deposited
          in the United States Mail, postage prepaid, Certified or Registered
          Mail, addressed to the parties hereto at the respective addresses set
          out below, or at such other address as they have theretofore specified
          by written notice delivered in accordance herewith:

instrument, there are more than one person, firm or corporation, all shall
jointly arrange among themselves for their joint execution of such a notice
specifying some individual at some specific address within the continental
United States for the receipt of notices and payments to Tenant. All parties
included within the terms "Landlord" and "Tenant", respectfully, shall be bound
by notices given in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph to the same
effect as if each had received such notice.

          23. Miscellaneous.
          A. Words of any gender used in this lease shall be held and construed
to include any other gender, and words in the singular number shall be held to
include the plural, unless the context otherwise requires.

          B. The terms, provisions and covenants and conditions contained in
this lease shall apply to, inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the
parties hereto and upon their respective heirs, legal representatives,
successors and permitted assigns, except as otherwise herein expressly provided.
Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in part, its
rights and obligations in the building and property that are the subject of this
lease. Each party agrees to furnish to the other, promptly upon demand, a
corporate resolution, proof of due authorization by partners, or other

          C. The captions inserted in this lease are for convenience only and in
no way define, limit or otherwise describe the scope or intent of this lease, or
any provision hereof, or in any way affect the interpretation of this lease.

          D. Tenant agrees from time to time within ten (10) days after request
of Landlord, to deliver to Landlord, or Landlord's designee, an estoppel
certificate stating that this lease is in full force and effect, the date to
which rent has been paid, the unexpired term of this lease and such other
matters pertaining to this lease as may be requested by Landlord.

          E. This lease may not be altered, changed or amended except by an
instrument in writing signed by both parties hereto.

                                     -17-
<PAGE>

          F. All obligations of Tenant hereunder not fully performed as of the
expiration or earlier termination of the term of this lease shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof, including without
limitation all payment obligations with respect to taxes and insurance and all
obligations concerning the condition of the premises. Upon the expiration or
earlier termination of the term hereof, following the inspection of the
premises contemplated by Paragraph 9, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any amount
reasonably estimated by Landlord as necessary to put the premises, including
without limitation all heating and air conditioning systems and equipment
therein, in the condition and repair that Tenant is required to maintain the
premises during the term of this Lease, normal wear and tear excepted. Tenant
shall also, prior to vacating the premises, pay to Landlord the amount, as
estimated by Landlord, of Tenant's obligation hereunder for real estate taxes
and insurance premiums for the year in which the lease expires or terminates.
All such amounts shall be used and held by Landlord for payment of such
obligations of Tenant hereunder, with Tenant being liable for any additional
costs therefor upon demand by Landlord, or with any excess to be returned to
Tenant after all such obligations have been determined and satisfied, as the
case may be. Any security deposit held by Landlord and the accrued interest
thereon shall be credited against the amount payable by Tenant under this
Paragraph 23(F).

          G. If any clause or provision of this lease is illegal, invalid or
unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this
lease, then and in that event, it is the intention of the parties hereto that
the remainder of this lease shall not be affected thereby, and it is also the
intention of the parties to this lease that in lieu of each clause or provision
of this lease that is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, there be added as a
part of this lease contract a clause or provision as similar in terms to such
illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause or provision as may be possible and be
legal, valid and enforceable.

          H. Because the premises are on the open market and are presently being
shown, this lease shall be treated as an offer with the premises being subject
to prior lease and such offer subject to withdrawal or non-acceptance by
Landlord or to other use of the premises without notice, and this lease shall
not be valid or binding unless and until accepted by Landlord in writing and a
fully executed copy delivered to both parties hereto.

          I. All references in this lease to "the date hereof" or similar
references shall be deemed to refer to the last date, in point of time, on which
all parties hereto have executed this lease.

          J. Tenant represents and warrants that it has dealt with no broker,
agent or other person in connection with this transaction or that no broker,
agent or other person brought about this transaction, and Tenant agrees to
indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any claims by any broker,
agent or other person claiming a commission or other form of compensation by
virtue of having dealt with Tenant with regard to this leasing transaction.

          24. Additional Provisions. [See paragraphs 25 through 32 attached
              hereto.]

25.  OPERATING EXPENSE ADJUSTMENT
     ----------------------------

     In the event that Tenant's proportionate share of projected operating
expenses for common area services as described in Paragraphs 4, 6, and 10
exceeds the amount specified in Paragraph 4 (a), (such excess to be called
"Excess Operating Expenses"), Tenant agrees to pay Landlord monthly, as an
additional rental, one twelfth (1/12) of the projection of "Excess Operating
Expenses".

     The most recent projection for "Excess Operating Expenses" for the building
and/or project is $1.27 per square foot per year. Tenant's proportionate share
of this projection of "Excess Operating Expenses" amounts to a monthly charge of
$15,629.47, for which the Tenant will be separately billed.

     On or about April 15 of each calendar year during Tenant's occupancy and
the calendar year following termination of this lease, or as soon thereafter as
is practical, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement in reasonable detail
of the actual Operating Expenses for the previous year. If for any calendar year
Tenant's payments on account for Excess Operating Expenses exceeds Tenant's
proportionate share of the actual Excess Operating Expenses, Landlord shall
either credit the overpayment against the next installment of rent due from
Tenant or promptly refund to Tenant the overpayment. Conversely, if the payments
made by Tenant on account of the prior year's Excess Operating Expenses are less
than Tenant's proportionate share of the actual Excess Operating Expenses,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such
statement, as additional rent, the underpayment with respect to Tenant's
Proportionate Share of the Excess Operating Expenses for the prior year.
Landlord, upon notice to Tenant, may elect to lower or raise the projected cost
paid monthly by Tenant so that Tenant's payments are equal to the adjusted
projection of "Excess Operating Expenses".

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Paragraph 4B, to the extent
that employees or agents of Landlord perform tasks associated with the operation
and maintenance of the building premises, which would have otherwise been
performed by outside contractors, 100% of such reasonable costs for these
services may be charged as operating expenses. These costs will be treated as if
the services were performed by outside contractors and shall not be subject to
the cap of 4% of gross annual rental which shall apply to management tasks
performed by employees of agents of Landlord. The term "Excess Operating
Expenses" shall specifically exclude capital improvements which under generally
accepted accounting principles and practices would be classified as capital
expenditures to the building or the project of which the Premises is a part.

26.  ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
     ---------------------

a.   Tenant shall not engage in operations at the Premises which involve the
generation, manufacture, refining, transportation, treatment, storage, handling
or disposal of "Hazardous Substances" or "Hazardous Waste" as such terms are
defined under the Industrial Site Recovery Act ("ISRA"). In no event shall
Tenant violate any governmental statutes, laws and ordinances regarding the use,
handling, storage, and disposal of Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Substances.
Tenant further covenants that it will not cause or permit to exist as result of
an intentional or unintentional action or omission on its part, the releasing,
spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring,

                                     -20-
<PAGE>

emitting, emptying or dumping from, on or about the Premises of any hazardous
substance (as such term is defined under N.J.S.A. 58:10-23.11 (b)(k) and
N.J.A.C. 7:1-3.3.

b.   Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, provide such certifications and
affidavits as Landlord may require in connection with any filing made by
Landlord under ISRA. If Tenant's operations on the Premises now or hereafter
constitute an "Industrial Establishment" subject to the requirements of ISRA,
then prior to the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease or to any
assignment of this Lease or any subletting of any portion of the Premises,
Tenant shall, at its expense, comply with all requirements of ISRA pertaining to
the transfer or closure of an Industrial Establishment. Without limitation of
the foregoing, Tenant's obligations shall include (i) the proper filing of an
initial notice to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection ("DEP")
(ii) the performance of any soil, ground water and surface water sampling and
tests required by the DEP and (iii) either the filing of a "negative
declaration" with the DEP or the performance of a proper and approved clean up
plan to the satisfaction of the DEP.

c.   In the event of Tenant's failure to comply in full with this Article,
Landlord may, at its option, perform any and all of Tenant's obligations as
aforesaid and all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in the exercise of
this right shall be deemed to be Additional Rent payable on demand.

d.   This Article shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of the
Lease.

27.  ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
     --------------------

     Tenant shall at any time upon not less than twenty (20) days written notice
execute and deliver to Landlord, lender or assignee or subtenant of Tenant, an
estoppel certificate as reasonably requested by Landlord in the form attached as
Exhibit "C" with any modifications thereto required by the then applicable state
of facts.

28.  ACCESS LAWS
     -----------

(a)  As used in this paragraph, the ten-n "Access Laws" shall mean the Americans
with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, all
state and local laws or ordinances related to handicapped access, or any
statute, rule, regulation, ordinance, order of governmental bodies or regulatory
agencies, or order or decree of any court adopted or enacted with respect to any
of the foregoing. The term Access Laws shall include all Access Laws now in
existence or hereafter enacted, adopted or applicable.

(b)  Landlord makes no representations regarding the compliance of the Premises,
Building or the Project with Access Laws; provided that, if any improvements or
alterations constructed by Landlord do not comply with Access Laws, Landlord
shall be responsible for correcting such defects if and to the extent required
by law.

(c)  Tenant agrees to notify Landlord immediately if Tenant becomes aware of (i)
any condition or situation in or on the Premises which would constitute a
violation of any Access Laws, or (ii) any threatened or actual lien, action or
notice of the Premises not being in compliance with any Access Laws. Tenant
shall inform Landlord of the nature of any such condition, situation, lien,
action or notice and of the action Tenant proposes to take in response thereto.

                                     -21-
<PAGE>

     (d)  Tenant shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses relating
to or incurred in connection with bringing the Premises, the Building and the
common areas into compliance with the Access Laws if and to the extent such
costs and expenses arise out of or relate to Tenant's use of the Premises or
Tenant's modifications, improvements or alterations to the Premises after the
date of this Lease.

     (e)  Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and
against any and all claims, demands, damages, losses, liens, liabilities,
penalties, fines, lawsuits, and other proceedings and costs and expenses
(including attorneys fees), arising directly or indirectly from or out of, or in
any way connected with, any activity on or use of the Premises, the Building or
the Project by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, invitees, or any
subtenant or concessionaire put into possession of all or any part of the
Premises by Tenant, which activity or use results in the Premises violating any
applicable Access Laws.

     (f)  The provisions in this Paragraph 28 shall supersede any other
provisions in this Lease regarding Access Laws to the extent inconsistent with
the provisions of this paragraph. The provisions in this Paragraph 28 shall
survive the expiration of the term or the termination of this Lease for any
other reason whatsoever.

30.  LIMITATION OF LANDLORD'S LIABILITY
     ----------------------------------

     Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Lease,
Tenant shall look solely to the estate and interest of Landlord in and to the
Land and the building, and Landlord shall have no personal liability, in the
even of any claim against Landlord arising out of or in connection with this
Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, or Tenant's use of the Leased
Premises, and Tenant agrees that the liability of Landlord arising out of or in
connection with this Lease, the

                                     -22-
<PAGE>

relationship of Landlord and Tenant, or Tenant's use of the Leased Premises
shall be limited solely to such estate or interest of Landlord in and to the
Land and the Building and that Landlord shall have no personal liability as
provided above in this sentence. No properties or assets of Landlord other than
the estate and interest of Landlord in and to the Land and the Building, and no
property owned by any partners, officer, member, director or trustee in or of
Landlord. shall be subject to levy, execution or other re-enforcement procedures
for the satisfaction of any judgment (or other judicial process) or for the
satisfaction of any other remedy of Tenant arising out of or in connection with
this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant or Tenant's use of the
Leased Premises. Further, in no event whatsoever shall any partner, officer,
member, director or trustee in or of Landlord have any liability or
responsibility whatsoever arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the
relationship of Landlord and Tenant or Tenant's use of the Leased Premises.

31.  "AS-IS" CONDITION
     -----------------

     Tenant agrees to accept the premises in its present "as-is" condition,
without any representation or warranty by Landlord or any obligation on
Landlord's part to perform any construction, improvements or repairs as a
condition to the effectiveness of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant
has fully inspected the premises and is satisfied with the current condition and
repair of the premises. Tenant further acknowledges that Tenant is currently in
possession of a portion of the premises pursuant to a temporary lease agreement,
and agrees that such temporary lease agreement shall automatically terminate
upon the commencement date of this Lease.

32.  TERMINATION OPTION
     ------------------

     Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of
September 30, 2002 (the "Early Termination Date"). Tenant may exercise this
option only by giving Landlord written notice of termination no later than
October 1, 2001. To be effective, Tenant's notice of termination must be
