LESSOR INITIAL LESSEE INITIAL
LESSOR and LESSEE covenant and agree as follows:
1.1 STANDARD OF MEASUREMENT
a.) Useable Square Footage
Is that area from the center of the tenant demising wall to the center of the
opposite tenant demising wall which is established by the American National
Standard Method of Measurement of Office Floor Space (ANSI Z65.1-1980) and the
Building Owners and Manager Association (BOMA).
b.) Load Factor
Is a percentage of all the Building common areas such as Building lobby,
elevator lobbies, common hallways, common restrooms, common utility service
closets, common conference room, common canteen/kitchen lounge areas and
designated smoking areas. Not calculated is vertical floor penetrations such as
stairways, elevator shafts or mechanical shafts.
c.) Rentable Square Footage
Is the calculated useable square footage plus a percentage of the common area of
the Building. The total of the two equal rentable square footage.
Formula:
1,685 useable square feet + 10% Load Factor = 1,854 rentable square feet
Note: The actual common area square footage may exceed the Load Factor of
this Lease.
d.) These square footages are approximations only and may vary
from the actual square footage. Prior to occupancy LESSEE may
inspect and measure the Premises to confirm the square
footage. As of occupancy LESSEE shall be deemed to have
accepted the Premises, and will be deemed to have waived any
objection to the square footage approximations set forth
herein.
2.1 DELIVERY OF POSSESSION
Should LESSOR be unable to deliver possession of the Premises on the date fixed
for the Commencement Date of the term, the Commencement Date will be deferred
and LESSEE shall owe no rent until receiving notice from LESSOR tendering
possession to LESSEE. If possession is not so tendered within 90 days following
the Commencement Date of the term, then LESSEE may elect to cancel this LEASE by
providing written notice to LESSOR within 10 days following expiration of the 90
day period. LESSOR shall have no liability to LESSEE for delay in delivering
possession, nor shall such delay extend the term of this LEASE in any manner.
2.2 EARLY POSSESSION
If LESSEE occupies the Premises prior to said Commencement Date, such occupancy
shall be subject to all provisions of this LEASE, such occupancy shall not
advance the Expiration Date, and LESSEE shall pay rent for such period at the
initial monthly rates set forth above.

LESSOR INITIAL LESSEE INITIAL
2.3 ACCEPTANCE OF PREMISES
Except as may be provided for in any exhibit, appendix or rider hereto,
occupancy shall be construed to mean that LESSEE expressly acknowledges that it
has fully inspected the Premises and accepts the Premises in their present
condition. LESSEE further acknowledges LESSOR shall not be responsible for any
alterations, improvements or repairs unless by written agreement of the parties,
attached to and made a part of this LEASE.
3.1 RENT PAYMENT
Upon LESSEE'S execution of the LEASE, LESSEE shall pay the Base Rent for the
first calendar month of the LEASE term for which rent is payable. LESSEE shall
pay the Base Rent for the Premises and any additional charges provided herein
without deduction or offset. Rent for any partial month during the lease term
shall be prorated to reflect the number of days during the month that LESSEE
occupies the Premises based on a thirty (30) day month/360 day year. Rent or any
additional charges not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of
one-and-one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month until paid in full. LESSOR may at
its option impose a late charge of .10 for each $1 due or $50.00, whichever is
greater, for rent or other additional charges paid made more than 10 days after
its due date in lieu of interest for the first month of delinquency, without
waiving any other remedies available for default.
4.1 SECURITY DEPOSIT
Concurrently with the execution of this LEASE by the LESSEE, LESSEE shall
deliver to LESSOR two-thousand one-hundred sixty-three and no/100 dollars
($2,163.00) as security for the full, timely and faithful performance by LESSEE
of every covenant and condition of this LEASE. It is expressly understood and
agreed the security deposit is not an advance of rental deposit or a measure of
LESSOR'S damages in the case of a default. This deposit shall not bear interest.
The security deposit shall not be considered a trust fund. LESSOR does not
represent that LESSOR is acting as a trustee or in any fiduciary capacity in
controlling or using LESSEE'S security deposit as provided for herein. If LESSEE
shall default with respect to any covenant or condition of this LEASE, LESSOR
may apply the whole or part of such security deposit to the payment of any sum
in default or any other sum which LESSOR may be required to spend by reason of
LESSEE'S default. In such event, LESSEE shall upon demand immediately pay to
LESSOR the amount necessary to restore the security deposit to its original
amount. When the Base Rent is adjusted per the terms of this LEASE, an
additional amount shall be paid to bring the security deposit amount equal to
the newly adjusted Base Rent amount. If LESSEE, complies with all of the
covenants and conditions of this LEASE, the security deposit or any balance
thereof shall be returned to the LESSEE within sixty (60) days after the
Expiration Date of the lease term.

retail sales or manufacturing and for no other purpose without LESSOR'S consent.

the Building. LESSEE shall create no nuisance nor allow any objectionable fumes,

transfers by operation of law including but not limited to mergers and changes
in control of LESSEE. No assignment or subletting shall relieve LESSEE of its
obligation to pay rent or perform other obligations required by this LEASE, and

current scheduled rental rate of the Building for comparable space and the
proposed LESSEE is compatible with LESSOR'S normal standards for the Building.
If LESSEE proposes a subletting or assignment to which LESSOR is required to
consent under this paragraph, LESSOR shall have the option of terminating this
LEASE and dealing directly with the proposed sublessee or assignee, or any third
party. If an assignment or subletting is permitted, any cash profit, or the net
value of any other consideration received by LESSEE as a result of such
transaction shall be paid to LESSOR promptly following its receipt by LESSEE.
LESSEE shall pay any costs incurred by LESSOR in connection with a request for
assignment or subletting, including reasonable attorneys' fees.

this LEASE within 10 days after it is due.
(b) LESSEE'S failure to comply with any other term or condition
within 10 days following written notice from LESSOR specifying
the noncompliance. If such noncompliance cannot be cured within
this 10 day period, the provision shall be satisfied if LESSEE
commences correction within such period and thereafter proceeds
in good faith and with reasonable diligence to effect compliance
as soon as possible. Time is of the essence in the performance of
this LEASE.
(c) The making by LESSEE of any general assignment or general
arrangement for the benefit of creditors; or the filing by or

to the following remedies which are intended to be cumulative and in addition to
any other remedies provided under applicable law:
(a) LESSOR may terminate the LEASE and retake possession of the
Premises. Following such retaking of possession, efforts by
LESSOR to relet the Premises shall be sufficient if LESSOR
follows its usual procedure for finding tenants for the space
at rates not less than the current rates for other comparable
space in the Building. If LESSOR has other vacant space in the
Building, prospective tenants may be placed in such other
space without prejudice to LESSOR'S claim to damages or loss
of rental from LESSEE.
(b) LESSOR may recover all damages caused by LESSEE'S default which
shall include an amount equal to rentals lost because of the
default, lease commissions paid for this LEASE, the unamortized
cost of any tenant improvements installed by LESSOR to meet
LESSEE'S special requirements and the cost of any clean up,
refurbishing, lock changes and removal of the LESSEE'S property
and fixtures. LESSOR may sue periodically to recover damages as
they occur throughout the lease term, and no action for accrued
damages shall bar a later action for damages subsequently
accruing. LESSOR may elect in any one action to recover accrued
damages plus damages attributable to the remaining term of the
LEASE. Such damages shall be measured based upon the rent due
under this LEASE for the remainder of the term, discounted to the
time of judgment at the prevailing interest rates on judgments.

LESSOR INITIAL LESSEE INITIAL
(c) LESSOR may make any payment or perform any obligation which
LESSEE has failed to perform, in which case LESSOR shall be
entitled to recover from LESSEE upon demand all amounts so
expended, plus interest from the date of the expenditure at the
rate of one-and-one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month. Any such
payment or performance by LESSOR shall not waive LESSEE'S
default.
18.1 SURRENDER
On the Expiration Date or early termination of this LEASE, LESSEE shall deliver
all keys to LESSOR to avoid a minimum lock change charge of $125.00 per lock and
surrender the Premises broom clean and in the same condition as at the
commencement date of the term subject only to reasonable wear from ordinary use.
LESSEE shall remove all of its furnishings and trade fixtures that remain its
property and restore all damage resulting from such removal. Failure to remove
shall be an abandonment of the property and LESSOR may dispose of it in any
manner without liability and LESSEE shall pay a reasonable charge for such
removal and disposal. If LESSEE fails to vacate the Premises when required,
including failure to remove all its personal property, LESSOR may elect either:
(1) to treat LESSEE as a tenant from month to month, subject to all the
provisions of this LEASE except that rent shall be one-and-one-half (1 1/2)
times the total rent being charged when the lease term expired; or (2) to eject
LESSEE from the Premises and recover damages caused by wrongful holdover. During

32.1 NOTICE TO OWNERS, BUYERS, AND TENANTS REGARDING
HAZARDOUS WASTES OR SUBSTANCES UNDERGROUND STORAGE
TANKS
Comprehensive Federal and State laws and regulations have been enacted in the
last few years in an effort to develop controls over the use, storage, handling,
cleanup, removal and disposal of hazardous wastes or substances. Some of these
laws and regulations, such as, for example, the so-called "Superfund Act",
provide for broad liability schemes wherein an owner, tenant or other user of
the property may be liable for cleanup costs and damages regardless of fault.
Other laws and regulations set standards for the handling of asbestos or
establish requirements for the use, modification, abandonment or closing of
underground storage tanks.
(10)
LESSOR INITIAL LESSEE INITIAL
It is not practical or possible to list all such laws and regulations in this
LEASE. Therefore, owners, buyers and tenants are urged to consult legal counsel
to determine their respective rights and liabilities with respect to the issues
described in this notice as well as all other aspects of the proposed
transaction. If hazardous wastes or substances have been, or are going to be
used, stored, handled or disposed of on the property, or if the property has or
may have underground storage tanks, it is essential that legal and technical
advice be obtained to determine, among other things, what permits and approvals
have been or may be required, if any, the estimated costs and expenses
associated with the use, storage, handling, cleanup, removal or disposal of the
hazardous wastes or substances and what contractual provisions and protections
are necessary or desirable. It may also be important to obtain expert assistance
for site investigations as to the likelihood of hazardous wastes or substances,
or underground storage tanks being on the property.
Although LESSOR will disclose any knowledge it actually possesses with respect
to the existence of hazardous wastes or substances, or underground storage tanks
on the property, LESSOR has not made investigations or obtained reports
regarding the subject matter of this notice, except as may be described in a
separate written document signed by LESSOR. LESSOR makes no representations
regarding the existence or nonexistence of hazardous wastes or substances, or
underground storage tanks on the property. You should contact a professional,
such as a civil engineer, geologist, industrial hygienist or other persons with
experience in these matters to advise you concerning the property.
The term "hazardous wastes or substances" is used in this notice in its very
broadest sense and includes, but is not limited to petroleum base products,
paints and solvents, lead cyanide, DDT, printing inks, acids, pesticides,
ammonium compounds, asbestos, PCBs and other chemical products. Hazardous wastes
or substances and underground storage tanks may be present on all types of real
property. This notice is therefore meant to apply to any transaction involving
any type of real property, whether improved or unimproved.
33.1 MODIFICATION
This LEASE may not be modified except by endorsement in writing attached to this
LEASE, dated and signed by all the parties hereto, and LESSOR shall not be bound
by any oral or written statement of any servant, agent, or employee modifying
this LEASE.
34.1 PARTIES AFFECTED
The rights, liabilities and remedies provided for herein shall extend to the
heirs, legal representatives, successors and, so far as the terms of this LEASE
permit, assigns of the parties hereto, and the words "LESSOR" and "LESSEE" and
their accompanying verbs or pronouns, wherever used in this LEASE, shall apply
equally to all persons, firms, or corporations which may be or become parties
hereto.
35.1 SECURITY
LESSEE and not LESSOR, is responsible for security of the Premises. Any breach
in security of the Premises, common areas, common access doors, and/or elevators
shall not constitute an eviction of the LESSEE or relieve LESSEE from any of
LESSEE'S obligations under this LEASE. All tenants shall have the responsibility
for maintaining the security to common access. LESSOR may modify the type or
amount of security measures or services provided to the Building or the Premises
at any time without notice.

36.1 RIGHT TO RELOCATE
LESSOR hereby reserves the right at any time during the term hereof to change
the location of the Premises in the Building or other acceptable property as may
be required. In the event LESSOR elects to exercise the foregoing option it
shall advise LESSEE with sixty (60) days prior written notice of its intention.
If LESSEE does not accept relocation space this LEASE will terminate at end of
sixty (60) day notice period. LESSEE hereby agrees to be bound by its election
to relocate or terminate this LEASE and, further, to execute upon receipt from
LESSOR, whatever amendments or other instruments may be required to correctly
reflect the foregoing changes and/or alterations. LESSOR shall relocate LESSEE
at LESSOR'S sole expense. LESSEE shall be relocated to a premise of like kind
and quality.
37.1 COST-OF-LIVING ADJUSTMENT (CPI)
The Base Rental will be adjusted on the rental adjustment dates described in
Section 37.2 based on the following factors:
The percentage increase in the yearly Consumer Price Index for U.S. City average
(all urban consumers), as of March 2004 and the same Consumer Price Index as of
March 2005, and on the same month of each year of the LEASE term. Such
information will be secured from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Said
increase shall be subject to a minimum annual increase of 3% and a maximum
annual increase of 5%.
37.2 RENTAL ADJUSTMENT DATES
June 1, 2005
June 1, 2006
37.3 UTILITY ADJUSTMENT
LESSEE shall pay as Additional Rent, one (1) time per year, LESSEE'S
proportionate share of any increase in basic utility costs for the Building.
The base period shall be March 2003 to February 2004, during which time the
actual utility costs were $ to be determined (this amount shall be provided to
LESSEE after LEASE signing date). The comparison period shall be defined as the
twelve calendar month period directly following the base period and every
consecutive twelve calendar month period thereafter. The actual utility costs
shall be defined as all Building meter accounts paid by the Lessor. For the
purposes of the utility adjustment, the Utility Building size shall be the
actual useable square feet less any space separately metered or submetered or
16,930 square feet and the LESSEE'S pro-rata share is 9.95% which is based on
the actual Premises useable square feet divided by the Utility Building size.
Since the useable square feet of the Building can change, the above Utility
Building size and LESSEE'S prorata share is subject to change.
The one (1) time per year utility payment, if any, shall be paid by the LESSEE
every June 1st starting June 1, 2005 and shall be calculated as follows:
First, before any comparison of utility costs is made, the adjusted actual
entire Building base period utility cost paid by the Lessor shall be increased
by the CPI percentage change for the same period (see Section 37.1) to create an
"adjusted" base amount. Next, the "adjusted" base period utility amount shall be
subtracted from the comparison period adjusted actual entire Building utility
cost. Last, the difference shall be multiplied by the LESSEE'S pro-rata share.
This amount will be due and payable as a one (1) time per year Additional Rent
charge paid by the LESSEE every June 1st starting June 1, 2005. An example is as
follows:

LESSOR INITIAL LESSEE INITIAL
Example
1.) Actual Building Size 20,000 useable sq. ft.
2.) Building Tenants who pay their utilities direct
on separate meters or separately read submeters 2,500 useable sq. ft.
3.) Adjusted Building Size 17,500 useable sq. ft.
4.) LESSEE'S Premises = 1,000 useable sq. ft.
5.) LESSEE'S pro-rata share = 5.7%
6.) Actual Utility Costs during Base Period for $17,500.00 ($1.00/rsf/yr)
Entire Building
7.) CPI Increase x 3%
8.) "Adjusted" Utility Costs Base Period $18,025.00
9.) Actual Utility Costs during Comparison Period $19,600.00 (12% increase)
for Entire Building
10.) Difference between Comparison Period and $1,575.00
"Adjusted" Base Period
11.) Tenant's annual Pro-rata Share 5.7% or $89.78, which is a one (1) time
per year payment made by the LESSEE.
38.1 SMOKING - ENTIRE
NON-SMOKING BUILDING
The Building in which the Premises is located has been designated as an entire
NON-SMOKING Building. This includes all areas of the Building, both common areas
as well as individual tenant spaces. Thus, smoking in the Premises is not
permitted. Because of the fact that some tenants' leases were in existence prior
to the adoption of the entire building non-smoking policy, these tenants have
the right, if they choose, to smoke in their Premises only, but do have a LEASE
obligation to provide smokeless ashtrays and/or an air purification system that
will filter air within the space to the extent that it is economically feasible.
LEASES for all new tenants moving into the Building will incorporate the entire
non-smoking Building policy and will prohibit these new tenants under their
LEASE from smoking in all areas of the Building.
39.1 WAIVER
Any waiver by the LESSOR of any breach of any covenant herein contained to be
kept and performed by the LESSEE shall not be deemed or considered as a
continuing waiver, and shall not operate to bar or prevent the LESSOR from
declaring a forfeiture for any succeeding breach, either of the same condition
or covenant otherwise.
