            4.5.3.3. two qualified valuers, one appointed by each of the parties
                     (or in the event of failure by one of the parties to so
                     appoint a valuer within 7 days of being requested to do so
                     in writing - then the valuer selected by the other party);

                     Australian Property Institute. Each valuer acting under
                     this subclause 4.5.3 acts as an expert and not as an
                     arbitrator and the decision of the valuer(s) (including any
                     decision as to the costs of such determination) is final

            Lessor within 14 days after being requested to do so, the Lessee
            must also pay to the Lessor interest on the amount of the difference
            at the Agreed Rate and calculated for the period from the relevant
            Market Review Date to the date of full payment, both days included.

     If any rent or other moneys payable by the Lessee under this Lease remain
     unpaid for 7 days after the due date, then the Lessee shall pay to the
     Lessor interest on that money at the Agreed Rate and the Lessor will be
     entitled to recover that money and/or that interest as if it is rent in
     arrears.

4.7. Other expenses of the Lessee

     4.7.1. The Lessee must pay to the Lessor within 14 days of being requested
            to do so all expenses of the Lessor directly referrable to a request
            from the Lessee at the rate from time to time reasonably charged by
            the Lessor.

            reasonably charged for use of air-conditioning outside the period

                                      22

                 reasonable discretion of the Lessor, then:

                 11.2.1.1.  this Lease may be determined by written notice by
                            either the Lessor or the Lessee without liability
                            attaching to either party by reason of such
                            determination provided that the Lessee shall not be
                            entitled to determine this Lease if the Lessor
                            within a period of three months after the occurrence
                            of the destruction or damage shall have given
                            written notice to the Lessee of its intention to

                            the Premises fit for occupation; and

                 11.2.1.2.  if the Lessor has not given the Notice pursuant to

      credits to which that party is entitled to in respect of that cost,
      expense or other amount.

15.2. If the Lessor makes a supply under or in connection with this Lease, any
      amount payable for that supply will be reduced by an amount representing
      the reduction in the costs of the Lessor in making that supply resulting
      from the abolition or reduction in any tax (other than income tax), duty,
      excise or other impost associated with the introduction of the GST, as
      calculated by the Lessor in accordance with the provisions of Part VB of
      the Trade Practices Act 1974 and relevant ACCC guidelines where
      applicable.

15.3. If GST becomes payable by a party ("Supplier") on any supply it makes
      under this Lease:

      15.3.1.  any amount payable or consideration to be provided under this
               Lease for that supply (as reduced in accordance with clauses 15.1
               and 15.2 where applicable)
<PAGE>

                                      27

                ("Agreed Amount") is exclusive of GST;

       15.3.2.  an additional amount will be payable by the party providing
                consideration for that supply ("the Recipient"), equal to the
                amount of GST payable on that supply as calculated by the
                Supplier in accordance with the GST law and payable at the same
                time and in the same manner as for the Agreed Amount; and

       15.3.3.  the Supplier will provide a tax invoice (or equivalent
                documentation which complies with the GST law) to the Recipient
                in respect of that supply, no later than the time at which the
                Agreed Amount for that supply is to be provided under this
                Lease.

15.4.  If, for any reason, the GST payable by the Supplier in respect of a
       supply it makes under this Lease (incorporating any increasing
       adjustments or decreasing adjustments relating to that supply) varies
       from the additional amount it receives from the Recipient under paragraph
       15.3 in respect of that supply, the Supplier will provide a refund or
       credit to or will be entitled to receive the amount of this variation
       from the Recipient (as appropriate). Where an adjustment event occurs in
       relation to a supply, the Supplier will issue an adjustment note to the
       Recipient in respect of that supply within 14 days after becoming aware
       of that adjustment event occurring.

15.5.  "GST", "GST law" and other terms used in this clause 15 have any meanings
       used in the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 (as
       amended from time to time) or any replacement or other relevant
       legislation and regulations, except "GST law" also includes any
       applicable rulings. Any reference to GST payable by the Supplier includes
       any GST payable by the representative member of any GST group of which
       the Supplier is a member.

          estimate of the outgoings of the Building for the then current or
          ensuing calendar year (as the case may be) with a statement of the
          Lessee's proportion (being that percentage shown in Item 9 of the
          Reference Schedule) of the amount by which the outgoings of the
          Building for the calendar year the subject of the Lessor's estimate
          exceed the base figure.

     (b)  The Lessee shall pay the Lessee's proportion of such estimate

          year shall be apportioned accordingly on a daily basis.

     (c)  As soon as may be convenient after 31 December in every year the

          the base figure together with a statement as to the Lessee's
          proportion thereof. The Lessor shall provide the Lessee with copies of
          such vouchers and/or receipts as are reasonably necessary to confirm

          such request is made within 14 days of the receipt of the statement by
          the Lessee. In the absence of patent error such certificate shall be
          conclusive evidence of the amount of such outgoings.

     (d)  Within fourteen days of the date of receipt of the statement referred
          to in the preceding subclause or, in the event of the Lessee
          requesting evidence of the figures in the statement as referred to in
          sub-clause (c), within 14 days of the receipt of such evidence any
          adjustment necessary between the Lessor and the Lessee shall be made
          either by the Lessee paying to the Lessor any deficiency in the amount
          paid on account by the Lessee in accordance with the Lessor's estimate
          or by the Lessor crediting any excess in such amount to the account of
          the Lessee, as the case may be, and such adjustment shall be effected
          notwithstanding the termination of this Lease.
