hereof, at 11:59 p.m. on October 31, 1998, or such earlier date as
the Master Lease may be terminated pursuant to the terms thereof.
3. Rent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in the Master Lease relating to Rent, Sublessee shall pay to

month or if the term of this Sublease terminates on a day other
than the last day of a calendar month, the Rent for such first or

by Sublessor under the Master Lease which are incurred at the

expenses relating to the Premises which arise under the Master
Lease, whether or not such costs and expenses are specifically
referred to herein.
(d) Rent shall be payable to Sublessor, in advance, in lawful
money of the United States, without prior notice, demand, or
offset, on or before the first day of each calendar month during
the term hereof.
(e) In the event of any casualty or condemnation affecting
the Premises, Rent payable by Sublessee shall be abated hereunder,
but only to the extent that Rent under the Master Lease is abated.

(d) Sublessor's Liability. With respect to Paragraph 17, the
following language is added at the end of said section:
3
Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Sublease,
the liability of Sublessor for its obligations under this
Sublease is limited solely to Sublessor's interest in the
Master Lease, and no personal liability shall at any time be
asserted or enforceable against any other assets of Sublessor
or against Sublessor's stockholders, directors, officers or
partners on account of any of Sublessor's obligations or
actions under this Sublease.
8. Sublessor's Obligations.
(a) Provided Sublessee is not in default under the terms of
this Sublease, Sublessor agrees to make timely payments of the Base
Rent and Additional Rent due under the Master Lease to the end that
the Master Lease shall not be terminated due to the default of
Sublessor.
(b) To the extent that the provision of any services or the
performance of any maintenance or any other act (collectively
"Master Lessor Obligations") is the responsibility of Master
Lessor, Sublessor, upon Sublessee's request, shall make reasonable
efforts to cause Master Lessor to perform such Master Lessor
Obligations; provided, however, that in no event shall Sublessor be
liable to Sublessee for any liability, loss or damage whatsoever in
the event that Master Lessor should fail to perform the same, nor
shall Sublessee be entitled to withhold the payment of Base Rent or
terminate this Sublease.
(c) Except as provided in this Paragraph 8, Sublessor shall
have no other obligations to Sublessee with respect to the Premises
or the performance of the Master Lease Obligations. Sublessee
acknowledges that Sublessor is not in a position to furnish the
services set forth in the Master Lease, obtain a nondisturbance
agreement, or to perform certain other obligations which are not
within Sublessor's control, including but not limited to,
maintenance, repairs and replacements, compliance with laws, and
restoration of the Premises after casualty or condemnation.
9. Utilities. Sublessee agrees to have all utilities
serving the Premises billed directly to Sublessee in Sublessee's
name and Sublessee shall pay the cost of any such utilities
directly to such utility company or service provider.
10. Early Termination of Master Lease. If, without the fault
of Sublessor or Sublessee, the Master Lease should terminate prior
to the expiration of this Sublease, neither party shall have any
liability to the other party. To the extent that the Master Lease
grants Sublessor any discretionary right to terminate the Master
Lease, whether due to casualty, condemnation, or otherwise,
Sublessor shall be entitled to exercise or not exercise such right
in its complete and absolute discretion.
11. Consent of Master Lessor. If Sublessee desires to take
any action which requires the consent of Master Lessor pursuant to
the terms of the Master Lease, including, without limitation,
making any alterations or entering into a further sublease or
assignment of this Sublease, then, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, (a) Sublessor shall have the same rights of
4
approval or disapproval as Master Lessor has under the Master
Lease, (b) Sublessee shall not take any such action until it
obtains the consent of both Sublessor and Master Lessor, and (c)
Sublessee shall request that Sublessor obtain Master Lessor's
consent on Sublessee's behalf, unless Sublessor agrees that
Sublessee may contact Master Lessor directly with respect to the
specific action for which Master Lessor's consent is required.
12. Surrender of Premises. Upon the termination of the
Sublease, Sublessee shall surrender the Premises to Sublessor
broom-clean and in the same condition as on the Commencement Date,
ordinary wear and tear excepted. In addition, Sublessor may
require Sublessee to remove any alterations, additions and
improvements (whether or not made with Sublessor's consent) prior
to the termination of the Sublease and to restore the Premises to
its prior condition, normal wear and tear excepted, repairing all
damage caused by or related to any such removal, all at Sublessee's
expense.
13. No Third Party Rights. The benefit of tile provisions of
this Sublease is expressly limited to Sublessor and Sublessee and
their respective permitted successors and assigns. Under no
circumstances will any third party be construed to have any rights
as a third party beneficiary with respect to any of said
provisions; provided, however, that Master Lessor shall be entitled
to the benefit of Sublessee's assumption of Sublessor's
obligations, as "Tenant" under the Master Lease, pursuant to
Paragraph 6 above.
14. Time of Essence. It is expressly understood and agreed
that time is of the essence with respect to each and every
provision of this Sublease.
15. Attorneys Fees. If any action or proceeding at law or in
equity shall be brought to enforce or interpret any of the
provisions of this Sublease, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party its reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs incurred in connection with the prosecution or defense of
such action or proceeding.
16. Approval of Master Lessor. This Sublease shall be
conditioned upon, and shall not take effect until, receipt of the
written approval of Master Lessor thereto. Upon receipt of such
approval, this Sublease shall be effective as of the date first
written above.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Sublease as
