Property Trust, a trust organized under 12C.F.R. Section 9.18 hereinafter referred to as "Landlord", and ......YYY, Inc., a ...... corporation, hereinafter referred to as"Tenant"; WITNESSETH 1. PREMISES AND TERM. A. In consideration of the obligation of Tenant to pay rent as herein provided, and in consideration of the other terms, provisions and covenants hereof, Landlord hereby demises and leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby takes and leases from Landlord those certain Premises as outlined on Exhibit "A" attached hereto (hereinafter referred to as the "Premises"), together with all rights, privileges, easements, appurtenances, and amenities belonging to or in any way appertaining to the Premises and together with the buildings, sidewalks, curbs, driveways, and other improvements situated or to be situated upon land described in Exhibit B attached hereto (the "Project"). B. TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the same for a term commencing on the "Commencement Date", as hereinafter defined, and ending thereafter as specified in the Basic Lease Information (the "Lease Term"); provided, however, that, in the event the "Commencement Date" is a date other than the first day of a calendar month, such term shall extend for the number of months in addition to the remainder of the calendar month following the "Commencement Date". C. The "Commencement Date" shall be the earlier of: (i) the Scheduled Term Commencement Date shown in the Basic Lease Information, or (ii) the date upon which the Premises shall have been substantially completed in accordance with the plans and specifications described in Exhibit "C" attached hereto. If the Premises shall not have been substantially completed by the Scheduled Term Commencement Date and the delay in substantially completing the Premises is not caused in whole or in part by any act or omission of Tenant, or Tenant's agents, employees, contractors or subcontractors, Tenant's obligations to pay rent under this Lease shall commence on the date the Premises are substantially completed. In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting from any delay for any reason whatsoever in the substantial completion of the Premises. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing as soon as Landlord deems the Premises to be substantially completed and ready for occupancy. If Tenant believes that the Premises have not in fact been substantially completed, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of Tenant's objections within three (3) days of Landlord's notice to Tenant that the Premises are substantially complete. Landlord shall have a reasonable time after delivery of such notice in which to take such corrective action as Landlord, in its sole discretion, seems appropriate, and shall notify Tenant in writing as soon as Landlord deems that such corrective action has been completed so that the Premises are substantially completed and ready for occupancy. In the event of any dispute as to the substantial completion of work required to be performed by Landlord, the certificate of Landlord's architect or general contractor shall be conclusive. The taking of possession by Tenant of any portion of the Premises for any reason shall be deemed conclusively to establish that the Premises have been substantially completed in accordance with the plans and specifications and that the Premises are in good and satisfactory condition as of when possession was so taken. Tenant acknowledges that no representations as to the condition or repair of the Premises have been made by Landlord, unless such are expressly set forth in this Lease. After the Commencement Date, Tenant shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord a letter of acceptance of delivery of the Premises, specifying the Commencement Date. 2. BASE RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSIT: A. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord Monthly Base Rent for the Premises, in advance, without demand, deduction, or set off, for the entire Lease Term at the rate specified in the Basic Lease Information, and Addendum A payable in monthly installments. The first monthly installment shall 2<PAGE> be due and payable on the date hereof and thereafter monthly installments of Monthly Base Rent shall be due and payable on the first day of each calendar month succeeding the Commencement Date during the Lease Term, except that the payment of Monthly Base Rent for any fractional calendar month at the commencement or end of this Lease shall be prorated on the basis of a 30-day month. B. In addition, Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord on the date hereof a security deposit in the amount specified in the Basic Lease Information, which sum shall be held by Landlord, without obligation for interest, 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, not the last month's rent and not a measure of Landlord's damages in the event of Tenant's default. Upon the occurrence of any default by Tenant under this Lease, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy provided herein or provided by law, use such deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of rent or other payment due Landlord hereunder, and any other damage, injury, expense or liability caused by such event of default; or to perform any obligation required of Tenant under this Lease; and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the security deposit to its original amount. Although the security deposit shall be deemed the property of Landlord, any remaining balance of such deposit shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days of the date following the termination of this Lease that all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease have been fulfilled. Tenant may not mortgage, assign, transfer or encumber the Security Deposit and any such act on the part of Tenant shall be without force or effect. In the event any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other creditor-debtor proceedings shall be instituted by or against Tenant, the Security Deposit shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums payable under this Lease to Landlord for all periods prior to the institution of such proceedings and the balance, if any, may be retained by Landlord and applied against Landlord's damages. 3. USE. The Premises shall be used only for THE PURPOSE OF GENERAL OFFICE, RECEIVING, STORAGE, SHIPPING, ASSEMBLY, LIGHT MANUFACTURING, AND SELLING (OTHER THAN RETAIL) PRODUCTS, YYY AND MERCHANDISE MADE AND/OR DISTRIBUTED BY TENANT AND FOR SUCH OTHER LAWFUL PURPOSES AS MAY BE INCIDENTAL THERETO and for no other purpose whatsoever without Landlord's prior written consent. Outside storage, including, without limitation, trucks and other vehicles, is prohibited without Landlord's prior written consent. Tenant shall at its own cost and expense obtain and maintain any and all licenses, permits, and other approval necessary or appropriate for its use, occupation or operation of the Premises. Tenant's inability to obtain or maintain any such license, permit or approval necessary or appropriate for its use, occupation or operation of the Premises shall not relieve it of its obligations under this Lease, including the obligation to pay Base Rent and additional rent. Tenant shall comply with all governmental laws, ordinances, rules and regulations applicable to the use and condition of the Premises, and shall promptly comply with all governmental orders and directives including, but not limited to, those regarding the correction, prevention and abatement of nuisances in or upon, or connected with, the Premises, all at Tenant's sole expense. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant shall comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and all other laws, regulations, orders, codes, ordinances and governmental laws pertaining to the Premises and Tenant's use thereof at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Tenant shall not commit or allow to be committed or exist: (a) any waste upon the Premises, (b) any public or private nuisance, (c) any objectionable or unpleasant odors, smoke, dust, gas, noise or vibrations to emanate from the Premises, or (d) any act or condition which disturbs the quiet enjoyment of any other tenant in the Building, violates any of Landlord's contracts affecting any or all of the land or Building, creates or contributes to any work stoppage, strike, picketing, labor disruption or dispute, interferes in any way with the business of Landlord or any other tenant in the Building or with the rights or privileges of any contractors, subcontractors, licensees, agents, concessionaires, subtenants, servants, employees, customers, guests, invitees or visitors or any other persons lawfully in and upon the land or Building, or causes any impairment or reduction of the good will or reputation of the land or Building. In addition to any other remedies Landlord may have for a breach by Tenant of the terms of this Paragraph 3, Landlord shall have the right to have Tenant evicted from the Premises. Without Landlord's prior written consent, Tenant shall not receive, store or otherwise handle any product, material or merchandise which is explosive, highly inflammable, hazardous or a pollutant. 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. In the event Tenant's use of 3<PAGE> Premises shall result in an increase in insurance premiums, Tenant shall be solely responsible for such increase. 4. TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES. A. Tenant agrees to pay its proportionate share of any and all real and personal property taxes, regular and special assessments (including, but not limited to, local improvement district assessments to finance the costs of streets, sewers, traffic lights and other utilities), license fees and other charges of any kind and nature whatsoever, payable as a result of any public or quasi-public authority, private party, or owner's association levy, assessment or imposition against, or arising out of Landlord's ownership of or interest in, the Project, together with the building and the grounds, parking areas, driveways, roads, and alleys around the building in which the Premises are located, or any part thereof (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Charges"). During each month of the Lease Term, Tenant shall make a monthly es...... deposit with Landlord (the "Es...... Payment") equal to 1/12 of its proportionate share of the Charges which Landlord estimates will be due and payable for that particular calendar year. Tenant authorizes Landlord to use the funds deposited by Tenant with Landlord under this Paragraph 4 to pay the Charges. Each Es...... Payment shall be due and payable, as additional rent, at the same time and in the same manner as the payment of Monthly Base Rent as provided herein. The amount of the initial monthly Es...... Payment will be specified in the Base Lease Information. The initial Es...... Payment is based upon Tenant's proportionate share of the estimated Charges for the year in question, and the monthly Es...... Payment is subject to increase or decrease as determined by Landlord to reflect an accurate es...... of Tenant's estimated proportionate share of the Charges. The Es...... Payment account of Tenant shall be reconciled annually. If the Tenant's total Es...... Payments are less than Tenant's actual proportionate share of the Charges, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the difference; if the Tenant's total Es...... Payments are more than Tenant's actual proportionate share of the Charges, Landlord shall retain such excess and credit it to Tenant's Es...... Payment account for the successive year's Charges. Tenant's proportionate share of the Charges shall be computed by ......plying the Charges by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of gross leasable square feet of floor space in the Premises and the denominator of which shall be the total applicable gross leasable square footage or such other equitable apportionment as Landlord may adopt. B. If Tenant should fail to pay any Es...... Payments, taxes, assessments, licensee fees or other charges required to be paid by Tenant hereunder, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, Landlord may, if it so elects, pay such Es...... Payments or taxes, assessments, license fees and other charges. Any sums so paid by Landlord shall be deemed to be additional rental owing by Tenant to Landlord and due and payable upon demand as additional rental together with interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the date of payment by Landlord until repaid by Tenant. C. (1) If at any time during the Lease Term, the present method of taxation shall be changed so that in lieu of the whole or any part of any taxes, assessments, fees or charges levied, assessed or imposed on real estate and the improvements thereon, there shall be levied, assessed or imposed on Landlord a capital levy or other tax directly on the rents received therefrom and/or a franchise tax, assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in whole or in part, upon such rents or the present or any future building or buildings, then all such taxes, assessments, fees or charges, or the part thereof so measured or based, shall be deemed to be included within the term "Charges" for the purposes of this Lease. (2) Tenant may, at its sole cost and expense, in its own name, dispute and contest any Charges by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith, but only after Tenant in such contest has deposited with Landlord the amount so contested and unpaid, which shall be held by Landlord without obligation for interest until the termination of the proceedings, at which time the amount(s) deposited shall be applied by Landlord toward the payment of the items held valid (plus any court costs, interest, penalties and other liabilities associated with the proceedings), and Tenant's share of any excess shall be returned to Tenant. Tenant further agrees to pay to Landlord upon demand all court costs, interest, penalties and other liabilities relating to such proceedings. Tenant agrees to indemnity, protect, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties (as defined below) from and against any claims, liabilities, costs, damages or expenses (including attorneys' fees) in connection with any such proceedings. (3) Any payment to be made pursuant to this Paragraph 4 with respect to the calendar year in which this Lease commences or terminates shall bear the same ratio to the 4 <PAGE> payment which would be required to be made for the full calendar year as that part of such calendar year covered by the Lease Term bears to a full calendar year. D. Tenant shall be liable for all taxes levied against personal property and trade fixtures placed by Tenant in the Premises. If any such taxes are levied 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 and trade 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 for which Tenant is primarily liable hereunder. 5. TENANT'S MAINTENANCE. A. Tenant shall at its own cost and expense keep and maintain all parts of the Premises (except those for which Landlord is expressly responsible under the terms of this Lease) in good condition, promptly making all necessary or prudent repairs and replacements, including, but not limited to, windows, glass and plate glass, doors, any special office entry, interior walls and finish work, floor and floor covering, downspouts, gutters, heating and air conditioning systems, dock boards, truck doors, dock bumpers, paving, and plumbing work and fixtures. Tenant shall also perform termite and pest extermination, regularly remove trash and debris, keep the parking areas, driveways, alleys and the whole of the Premises in a clean and sanitary condition, replace light fixtures and bulbs and, in all other respects, maintain the Premises in good working order and condition. Tenant shall repair all wind damage to glass. B. Tenant shall not damage any wall or disturb the integrity and support provided by any wall and shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly repair any damage or injury to any wall caused by Tenant or its employees, agents, licensees or invitees. C. Tenant and its employees, agents, licensees and invitees shall have the right to use the parking areas, if any, as may be designated by Landlord in writing, subject to such reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to time prescribe and subject to rights of ingress and egress of other tenants. Landlord shall not be responsible for enforcing any exclusive parking rights granted to against any third parties. If Tenant can be clearly identified as being responsible for obstructions or stoppage of a common sanitary sewage line, then Tenant shall pay the cost of repairing such sewage line, upon demand as additional rent. D. Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, enter into a regularly scheduled preventive maintenance/service contract with a maintenance contractor for servicing all heating and air conditioning systems and equipment within the Premises. E. If Tenant fails to maintain or repair the Premises in accordance with this paragraph, then Landlord may, but shall not be required to, enter the Premises upon two (2) business days prior written notice to Tenant (or immediately without any notice in the case of an emergency) to perform such maintenance or repair at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost of such maintenance or repair plus a fifteen percent (15%) administration fee within ten (10) business days of written demand from Landlord. 6. LANDLORD'S REPAIRS. After written notice from Tenant, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such repairs to the roof, exterior walls and foundations as Landlord deems necessary, and Tenant shall pay its proportionate share of the costs of such repairs as provided in Paragraph 7. Tenant shall repair and pay for any damage to such items to be maintained by Landlord caused by any act, omission or negligence of Tenant, or Tenant's employees, agents, licensees or invitees, or caused by Tenant's default hereunder. The term "walls" as used herein shall not include windows, glass or plate glass, doors, special store fronts or office entries. Tenant shall immediately give Landlord written notice of any defect or any need for repairs, after which Landlord shall have a reasonable opportunity and time to repair same or cure such defect. Landlord's liability with respect to any defects, repairs or maintenance for which Landlord is responsible under any of the provisions of this Lease shall be limited solely to the cost of such repairs or maintenance or the curing of such defect. In no event will Landlord be responsible for paying incidental or consequential damages resulting from Landlord's failure to cure such defects. 7. MONTHLY COMMON AREA MAINTENANCE CHARGE. Tenant agrees to pay, as an additional charge each month, its proportionate share of the cost of the operation, maintenance, improvement, repair and replacement of the "Common Area", which shall be defined from time to time by Landlord. The term Common Area may include any property not owned by Landlord which is located beyond the boundaries of the Project to the extent 5 <PAGE> Landlord is obliged to pay certain costs of operation and maintenance or to contribute to the cost of operation and maintenance. Common Area costs which may be incurred by Landlord at its discretion, may include, but shall not be limited to those costs incurred for lighting, water, sewage, trash removal, exterior painting, exterior window cleaning, sweeping, management, accounting, policing, inspecting, sewer lines, plumbing, paving, landscape maintenance, plant material replacement and other like charges, and Landlord's fee for supervision and administration of the items set forth in this Paragraph, currently at 10%. The proportionate share to be paid by Tenant of the cost of operation, maintenance, improvement, repair and replacement of the Common Area shall be computed on the ratio that the gross leasable square footage of the Premises bears to the total applicable gross leasable square footage or such other equitable apportionment as Landlord may adopt. Landlord shall make monthly or other periodic charges based upon the estimated annual cost of operation and maintenance of the Common Area, payable in advance but subject to adjustment after the end of the year on the basis of the actual cost for such year. Any such periodic charges shall be due and payable upon delivery of notice thereof. The initial Common Area Maintenance Charge, subject to adjustment as provided herein, shall be due and payable, as additional rent, at the same time and in the same manner as the time and manner of the payment of Monthly Base Rent as provided herein. The amount of the initial monthly Common Area Maintenance Charge shall be as specified in the Basic Lease Information. 8. ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises (including, but not limited to, roof and wall penetrations or alterations, additions or improvements affecting building, mechanical or electrical systems or equipment) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion or may be conditioned on, among other things, proof of insurance coverage, payment and performance bonds, in forms, amounts and by companies acceptable to Landlord, and Landlord's review of Tenant's plans and specifications, Tenant's contractor and Tenant's building permit. 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, unless Landlord otherwise elects as hereinafter provided, remove all alterations, additions, improvements and partitions erected by Tenant and restore the Premises to their original condition by the date of termination of this Lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises; provided, however, that if Landlord so elects prior to termination of this Lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises, 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 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. All such removals and restoration shall be accomplished in good workmanlike manner so as not to damage the buildings and other improvements situated on the Premises. Landlord shall have the right at any time and from time to time to make changes or alterations to any portion of the Project other than the Premises and Landlord shall not be subject to any liability with respect to such alterations. 9. SIGNS. Tenant shall not install signs upon the Premises without Landlord's prior written approval, and any such signage shall be subject to any applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements. Tenant shall remove all such signs by the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. Such installations and removals shall be made in such a 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. 10. INSPECTION/SURRENDER OF POSSESSION. A. Landlord and Landlord's agents and representatives shall have the right to enter and inspect the Premises at any reasonable time during business hours, 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 or for any other lawful purpose. During the period that is six (6) months prior to the end of the Term hereof, 6 <PAGE> 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. B. Tenant shall, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, surrender and deliver the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as when received by Tenant from Landlord or as later improved, reasonable use and wear excepted. C. Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to vacating the Premises and shall arrange to meet with Landlord for a joint inspection of the Premises prior to vacating. In the event of Tenants's failure to give such notice or arrange such joint inspection, Landlord's inspection at or after Tenant's vacating the Premises shall be conclusively deemed correct for purposes of determining Tenant's responsibility for restoring the Premises to the condition required hereunder. 11. UTILITIES. Landlord agrees to provide at its cost water, electricity and gas 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. If any such services are not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant shall pay a reasonable proportion as determinded by Landlord of all charges jointly metered with other Premises. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss, injury, damage to property, or other consequences caused by or resulting from any variation, interruption, or failure of utilities ore services in the Building due to any cause whatsoever. However, in the event of such variation, interruption or failure, Landlord shall use reasonable diligence to restore such service to a normal operating condition. No temporary interruption, variance, or failure of such services incident to the making or repairs, strike, extreme weather conditions, or the conditions or events beyond Landlord's reasonable control shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant or relieve Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations hereunder. 12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. A. Tenant shall not have the right, voluntarily or involuntarily, to assign, convey, transfer, mortgage or sublet the whole or any part of the Premises under this Lease without the prior written consent of Landlord. If Tenant is a partnership, corporation or limited liability company, the transfer, assignment, sale or other change in ownership interest in excess of 33% (in the aggregate) shall be deemed an assignment within the meaning of this Paragraph. In the event Tenant applies to Landlord for consent to assign, convey, transfer or sublet the Premises, Landlord may condition such consent on, among other things, the right to receive one-half of the profit, if any, which Tenant may realize on account of such assignment, conveyance, transfer or sublease of the Premises or any other condition. For purposes of this paragraph, "profit" shall mean any sum which the assignee, sublessee or transferee is required to pay, or which is credited to Tenant as rent in excess of the rents required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease. Landlord also reserves the right to recapture the Premises or applicable portion thereof in lieu of responding to Tenant's transfer request by notice of Landlord's exercise of its recapture right given to Tenant within twenty (20) days after receipt of Tenant's written request for assignment or subletting. Such recapture shall terminate this Lease as to the applicable space effective on the prospective date of assignment or subletting, which shall be the last day of a calendar month and not earlier than sixty (60) days after receipt of Tenant's request hereunder. Nothing contained in this Lease shall prohibit Landlord from entering into a new lease with Tenant's proposed assignee or sublessee. In the event that Landlord shall not elect to recapture the Premises or the applicable portion thereof, Tenant shall pay Landlord a reasonable fee, not to exceed $500.00, to reimburse Landlord for processing costs incurred in connection with considering whether to consent to Tenant's sublease or assignment request, and shall also reimburse Landlord for Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees. B. Notwithstanding any permitted assignment or subletting, Tenant shall at all times remain directly, primarily and fully responsible and liable for the payment of the rent and all other charges under this Lease and for compliance with all of its other obligations under the terms, provisions and covenants of this Lease. 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, transfer or sublease and apply such rent against any sums due to 7 <PAGE> 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 here under. 13. INSURANCE, FIRE AND CASUALTY DAMAGE. A. Landlord shall maintain casualty insurance covering the building of which the Premises are a part in an amount equal to the "replacement cost" thereof, insuring against the perils covered by the extended coverage policy and any other perils elected to be covered by the Landlord. Coverages and endorsements shall be as selected by the Landlord and such insurance shall be for the sole benefit of Landlord and all insurance proceeds shall remain under its sole control. Such insurance may be effectuated, in whole or in part, by a blanket policy covering the building in which the Premises are located and other buildings. In the event the insurance policy is subject to a deductible, Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay all or its proportionate share, as appropriate, of any deductible withheld from insurance proceeds or payables under the terms of the insurance policy procured by Landlord in the event of a claim or insured loss with respect to the building in which the Premises are located. Landlord may, in its discretion, require that Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, maintain on all of its personal property, tenant improvements and alterations in, or on about the Premises a policy of casualty insurance to the extent of the full replacement value without any deduction for depreciation. B. Tenant shall pay its proportionate share of Landlord's costs of procuring and maintaining: (i) the insurance coverage described in Subparagraph 13A, (ii) liability insurance with respect to the Project and the operations thereon, and (iii) any other insurance coverage procured by Landlord and pertaining or relating to the Premises in any way. In the event any insurance coverage is on a blanket basis, the premium shall be equitably apportioned to the buildings and improvements located within the Project before determining Tenant's proportionate share. During each month of the term of this Lease, Tenant shall make a monthly es...... deposit with Landlord (the "Insurance Es...... Payment") equal to one-twelfth of its proportionate share of Landlord's cost of procuring and maintaining the insurance described in Subparagraphs 13A and 13B which will be due and payable for that particular year. Tenant authorizes Landlord to use the funds deposited by Tenant with Landlord under this paragraph to pay the cost of such insurance. Each Insurance Es...... Payment shall be due and payable, as additional rent, at the same time and manner of the payment of the Monthly Base Rent as provided herein. The initial monthly Insurance Es...... Payment is subject to increase or decrease as determined by Landlord to reflect an accurate monthly es...... of Tenant's estimated proportionate share of this insurance. The Insurance Es...... Payment account of Tenant shall be reconciled annually. If the Tenant's total Insurance Es...... Payments are less than Tenant's actual proportionate responsibility for such insurance, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the difference; if the total Insurance Es...... Payments of Tenant are more than Tenant's actual proportionate responsibility for such insurance, Landlord shall retain such excess and credit it to the next monthly payment payable by Tenant or if this Lease has expired, refund such excess to Tenant. Tenant's cost of insurance shall be computed by ......plying the cost of Insurance by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of gross leasable square feet of floor space in the Premises and the denominator of which shall be the total applicable gross leasable square footage. The amount of the initial monthly Insurance Es...... Payment will be as specified in the Basic Lease Information. C. Tenant shall, throughout the Lease Term, at its own expense, procure and maintain in full force and effect: (a) A policy of comprehensive general liability insurance, including a contractual liability endorsement covering Tenant's obligations under the paragraph captioned "Indemnification", insuring against claims of bodily injury and death or property damage or loss with a combined single limit at the Commencement Date of this Lease of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00), which limit shall be reasonably increased during the Lease Term at Landlord's request to reflect both increases in liability exposure arising from inflation as well as from changing use of the Premises or changing legal liability standards, which policy shall be payable on an "occurrence" rather than a "claim made" basis, and which policy names Landlord and manager and, at Landlord's request Landlord's mortgage lender(s) or investment advisors, as additional insureds; (b) A policy of extended property insurance (which is commonly called "at risk") covering Tenant Improvements, Tenant Alterations, and any and all furniture, fixtures, equipment, inventory, improvements and other property in or about the Premises which is not owned by Landlord, for one hundred percent (100%) of the then current replacement value of such property; and (c) Business interruption insurance in an amount sufficient to cover costs, damages, lost income, expenses, Base Rent, additional 8 <PAGE> rent and all other sums payable under this Lease, should any or all of the Premises not be usable for a period of up to twelve (12) months. All insurance policies required under this paragraph shall be with companies reasonably approved by Landlord authorized to do business in the State of ...... and each policy shall provide that it is not subject to cancellation or reduction in coverage except after thirty (30) days' written notice to Landlord. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord and, at Landlord's request Landlord's mortgage lender(s), prior to the Commencement Date and from time to time thereafter, certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of all such policies. If Tenant fails to acquire or maintain any insurance or provide any certificate required by this paragraph, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, obtain such insurance or certificates and the costs associated with obtaining such insurance or certificates shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord on demand. Such policies shall be primary insurance (and not "excess over" or contributory with any other valid, existing and applicable insurance in force for or on behalf of Landlord) and such policies shall not eliminate cross-liability and shall contain a severability of interest clause. 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. D. If the building of which the Premises are a part should be damaged or destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice thereof to Landlord. E. If the building of which the Premises are a part should be totally destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, or if it should be so damaged thereby that rebuilding or repairs cannot in Landlord's estimation be completed within two hundred (200) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, this Lease shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate and the rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage. Landlord shall give notice to Tenant in writing of its determination to terminate this Lease within ninety (90) days following the date of the occurrence of such damage. F. If the building of which the Premises are a part should be damaged only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can in Landlord's estimation be completed within two hundred (200) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by tenant of such damage, this Lease shall not terminate, and Landlord shall at its sole cost and expense (but only to the extent of insurance proceeds received by Landlord) thereupon proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair such building to substantially the condition in which it existed prior to such damage, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partition, fixtures, additions, and other improvements which may have been placed in, or about the Premises by Tenant. If the Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, the rent payable hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable shall be reduced to such extent the Premises are unusable. G. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the holder of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, the Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after such requirement is made by any such holder, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate, except that Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord for the payment of any rents or other charges already accrued. H. Each of Landlord and Tenant hereby releases the other from any loss or damage to property caused by fire or any other perils insured through or under them by way of subrogation or otherwise for any loss or damage to property caused by fire or any other perils insured in policies of insurance covering such property, even if such loss or damage shall have been caused by the fault or negligence of the other party, or anyone for whom such party may be responsible; provided, however, that this release shall be applicable and in force and effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such times as the releaser's policies shall contain a clause or endorsement to the effect that any such release shall not adversely affect or impair said policies or prejudice the right of the releaser to recover there under and then only to the extent of the insurance proceeds payable under such policies. Each of the Landlord and Tenant agrees that it will request its insurance carriers to include in its policies such a clause or endorsement. If extra cost shall be charged therefor, each party shall advise the other thereof and of the amount of the extra cost, and the other party, at its election, may pay the same, but shall not be obligated to do so. 9 <PAGE> 14.

CONDEMNATION. A. If the whole or any substantial part 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 Subparagraph 15(A), this Lease shall not terminate but the rent payable hereunder during the unexpired portion of this Lease shall be reduced to such extent as the premises are not useable. C. In the event of any such taking or private purchase in lieu thereof, Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award, Tenant shall be entitled to make a claim for a separate award for Tenant's relocation expenses in any condemnation proceedings so long as Tenant's claim does not reduce the amount of Landlord's award. 16. HOLDING OVER. Tenant will, at the termination of this Lease by lapse of time of 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 five (5) 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 and one-half (1-1/2) the Monthly Base Rent in effect on the termination date, plus all additional rental as defined herein, 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.

In the event this Lease is a sublease, then Tenant agrees to take the Premises subject to the provisions of the prior leases. Landlord covenants 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 from Landlord, subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease.

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 taxes 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 from the date such payment was due. B. Insolvency of Tenant; an assignment by Tenant for the benefit or creditors; the filing by Tenant of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy; an adjudication that Tenant is bankrupt or the appointment of a receiver of the properties of Tenant; the filing of an involuntary petition of bankruptcy and failure of Tenant to secure a dismissal of the petition within thirty (30) days after filing; attachment of or the levying of execution on the leasehold interest and failure of Tenant to secure discharge of the attachment or release of the levy of execution within ten (10) days. If Tenant consists of two or more individuals or business entities, the events of default specified in this Paragraph 18 shall apply to each individual unless within ten (10) days after the event of default occurs, the remaining individuals produce evidence satisfactory to Landlord that they have unconditionally acquired the interest of the one causing the default. If this Lease has been assigned, the events of default so specified shall apply only with respect to the one then exercising the rights of Tenant under this Lease. C. Tenant shall vacate or abandon any substantial portion of the Premises. Failure of Tenant for ten (10) days or more to occupy the Premises for one or more of the purposes permitted under this Lease, unless such failure is excused under other provisions of this Lease, shall be an abandonment of the property. D. If any information furnished by or on behalf of Tenant to Landlord in connection with the entry of this Lease is determined to have been materially false, misleading or incomplete when made. E. Tenant shall fail to comply with any term, provision, condition or covenant of this Lease (other than the foregoing in this Paragraph 18), and shall not cure such failure within twenty (20) days after written notice thereof to Tenant. If the default is of such a nature that it cannot be completely remedied within the 20-day period, this provision shall be complied with if Tenant begins correction of the default within the 20-day period and thereafter proceeds with reasonable diligence and in good faith to effect the remedy as soon as practicable. Landlord shall not be required to give such written notice more than once during any single twelve (12) month period for the failure to perform the same covenant and upon the second failure, Landlord may, at this option, deem such failure as an automatic event of default, without notice to Tenant. 19. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any such events of default described in Paragraph 18 hereof, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice or demand whatsoever. A. Landlord may accelerate all rent payments due hereunder, the present value of which shall then become immediately due and payable. B. 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 rearranges in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying such Premises or any part thereof, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages therefor, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the amount of all-loss and damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination, whether through inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise. Landlord's right to any and all damages shall survive termination of the lease. C. Enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying such Premises or any part thereof, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages therefor, and relet the Premises for such terms ending before, on or after the expiration date of the Lease Term, at such rentals and upon such other conditions (including concessions and prior occupancy periods) as Landlord in its sole discretion may determine, and receive the rental therefor; and Tenant agrees to pay to the Landlord on demand any deficiency that may arise by reason of such reletting together with all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with such reletting. Landlord shall have no obligation to relet the Premises or any part thereof in advance of any Please Initial --------------------- ILLEGIBLE ILLEGIBLE --------- --------- Tenant Landlord 11 <PAGE> other available space controlled by Landlord and shall not be liable refusal or failure to relet or in the event of reletting for refusal or failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting. In the event Landlord is successful in reletting the Premises at a rental in excess of that agreed to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant each mutually agree that Tenant shall not be entitled, under any circumstances, to such excess rental, and Tenant does hereby specifically waive any claim to such excess rental. D. Enter upon the Premises, by force if necessary, 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, whether cause by the negligence of Landlord or otherwise. E. Whether or not Landlord retakes possession or relets the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to recover unpaid rent and all damages caused by Tenant's default, including attorney's fees. Damage shall include, without limitation: all rentals lost; all legal expenses and other related costs incurred by Landlord following Tenant's default; all costs incurred by Landlord in restoring the Premises for reletting; all costs, including, without limitation, any brokerage commissions; and the value of Landlord's time; plus interest thereon at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from date of expenditure until fully repaid. F. In the event Tenant fails to pay any installment of rent, additional rent or other charges hereunder as and when 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. 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. The parties agree that such late charge is a reasonable amount to defray Landlord's costs arising out of Tenant's late payment. G. Landlord may sue periodically to recover damages during the period corresponding to the remainder of the Lease Term, and no action for damages shall bar a later action for damages subsequently occurring. H. Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any of the other remedies herein provided or any other remedies provided by law, such remedies being cumulative and nonexclusive, nor shall pursuit of any remedy herein provided constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due to Landlord hereunder or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms, provisions, conditions, and covenants herein contained. No act or thing done by Landlord or its agents shall be deemed a termination of this Lease or an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to terminate this Lease or accept a surrender of the Premises shall be valid unless in writing signed by Landlord. No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained shall be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any other violation or breach of any of the terms, provision, conditions, and covenants herein contained. Landlord's acceptance of the payments of rental or other payments hereunder after the occurrence of an event of default shall not be construed as a waiver of such default, unless Landlord so notifies Tenant in writing. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default or of Landlord's right to enforce any such remedies with respect to such default or any subsequent default. 20. ATTORNEY'S FEES. In the event it becomes necessary for either party to enforce any rights incident to this Lease, in a court of law or equity, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees (including those on appeal) in additional to damages or other appropriate relief. If Landlord places any amounts owing under this Lease in the hands of an attorney or other party for collection or enforcement of the covenants contained herein, as a consequence of a default, as defined herein, the party in default agrees to pay reasonable fees and expenses so incurred, even though no suit or action is instituted. 21. LANDLORD'S LIEN. In addition to any statutory lien for rent in Landlord's favor, Landlord shall have and Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a continuing security interest for all rentals and other sums of money becoming due hereunder from Tenant, upon all goods, wares, equipment, fixtures, furniture, inventory, accounts, contract rights, chattel paper and other personal property of Tenant situated on the Premises, and such property shall not be removed Please Initial --------------------- ILLEGIBLE ILLEGIBLE --------- --------- Tenant Landlord 12 <PAGE> therefrom without the consent of Landlord until all arrearages in rent as well as any and all other sums of money then due to Landlord hereunder shall first have been paid and discharged.

Tenant hereby agrees to execute such financing statements and other instruments necessary or desirable in Landlord's discretion to perfect the security interest hereby created. Any statutory lien for rent is not hereby waived, the express contractual lien herein granted being in addition and supplementary thereto. 22. 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, then by notice to Tenant from such mortgagee, trustee or holder, this Lease shall be alerted.
