Such construction shall be referred to as "Landlord's Work." All of the
equipment, fixtures and improvements installed pursuant to Landlord's Work
shall be and remain the property of Landlord. Landlord shall not receive a
supervisory fee for supervising Landlord's Work.
1. Space and Design Plans.
The "Space and Design Plans" shall mean plans for the construction of
Landlord's Work, showing its partitions, doors and plans, and other
illustrations as required to enable the preparation of Construction Documents
and which shall set forth all necessary information regarding, electrical,
telephone and light switch locations, lighting and reflected ceiling plan,
equipment codes, wall finishes, floor finishes, signage location, millwork
built-ins, architectural treatments, window covering and treatments, cabinet
work, paneling, any custom features for the 25th Floor Space, and the types,
color, size and finish of all such materials Tenant shall submit to Landlord
Space and Design Plans.
2. Construction Documents. By no later than February 1, 1997, tenant shall
submit to Landlord the architectural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing
construction documents (such documents referred to as the "Construction
Documents") in appropriate biddable form to implement the space and Design
Plans. If, at any time Landlord determines that the Construction Documents
are not in appropriate biddable form to obtain bids or in appropriate form to
obtain permits from any government authority (including if such Construction
Documents are rejected by any government authority), Landlord may require
that Tenant revise and resubmit such Construction Documents. Tenant shall
revise and resubmit such Construction Documents within five (5) days of
Landlord's request. Approval by Landlord of the Tenant's Working Drawings
and Specification shall be non-technical approval and shall not be deemed to
mean approval of structure, size of ducts or piping, adequacy of the
electrical system, system/equipment capacities and other technical matters.
Tenant is responsible for coordinating the proper and adequate design and
construction of the Tenant's Improvements in compliance with laws.
3. Contracts and Payment for Space and Design Plans and Construction
Documents.

architectural firms to draw the Space and Design Plans and the Construction
Documents for Landlord's Work. All such firms shall be subject to Landlord's
prior written approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

4. Selection of Contractor
Based on the Construction Documents, Landlord shall prepare an
invitation to bid which includes a copy of the proposed form of construction
contract on the basis of a guaranteed maximum price contract on the basis of
a guaranteed maximum price contract. Landlord shall submit bids to the
contractors, in good faith, agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant (collectively,
the "Qualified Contractors"). Landlord and Tenant shall mutually select the
contractor to perform Landlord's Work from the bids received. If Tenant and
Landlord fail to agree on a contractor within four (4) days thereafter,
Landlord shall select the apparent low bidder (the contractor selected in
accordance with the foregoing procedure is herein called the "Contractor").
The Contractor, with the approval of Landlord, shall select the
subcontractors. The Contractor and subcontractors must be willing to agree to
all requirements imposed by Landlord's construction and/or permanent lender
(including any reasonable requirements relating to retainages, advances,
insurance, bonding requirements, mechanics' lien waivers or otherwise) and
penalties for late delivery of space. After selection of the Contractor,
Landlord shall negotiate and execute a construction contract with the
Contractor. Landlord may make changes to the form construction contract but
the contract guaranteed maximum price shall remain the same without cost
overruns except for Tenant change orders, Necessary Change Orders, and other
change orders approved by Tenant. After approval of the Construction
Documents, selection of the Contractor, and execution of the construction
contract, the Contractor shall proceed with construction of Landlord's Work
under the supervision of Landlord. Tenant shall evaluate and analyze all
construction pricing to ensure current market pricing and to maximize the use
of Landlord's Construction Contribution (as defined below). To that end,
Landlord shall provide Tenant with all scheduled construction pricing for
review and analysis.
5. Change Orders
Landlord shall have the right to initiate any change order if such
change order (a "Necessary Change Order") is necessary: (a) for compliance
with any applicable laws; (b) in order to obtain necessary permits or
certificate of occupancy; or (c) for Landlord's Work to be compatible with or
coordinated with base building structure or systems. Landlord shall notify
Tenant of any Necessary Change Order. Other than Necessary Change Orders,
Landlord shall notify Tenant and obtain Tenant's consent prior to initiating
a material change. Tenant shall notify Landlord of its approval or denial
within two (2) business days of Landlord's request.
Tenant (acting through Tenant's Authorized Representative) shall have
the right to initiate change orders, subject to Landlord's reasonable
approval. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its approval to any such
Tenant-initiated change order proposal. Following receipt of a request for a
change order, Landlord shall promptly (i.e., within 2 days) notify Tenant
whether such request is approved, and if such request is approved Landlord
shall submit to Tenant a written change order which shall include an estimate
of the cost and any anticipated delays that will be incurred as a result of
the change. Upon Tenant's execution of the written change order prepared by
Landlord, the change shall be incorporated into Landlord's Work. Any delays
caused by Tenant's change orders or Necessary Change Orders shall be treated
as a Tenant Delay.
-9-
6. Payment of Cost.
Landlord shall provide Tenant a total construction allowance of Seven
Dollars ($7) per rentable square foot (the "Landlord's Construction
Contribution") for the construction of the 25th Floor Space. Landlord's
Construction Contribution shall be used by Landlord to complete Tenant's work
as per the Construction Documents. Tenant shall pay for any overage of
Landlord's construction within thirty (30) days of receipt of written xxxx.
Failure by Tenant to tender payment for such improvements shall not delay the
25th Floor Space Commencement Date and shall be deemed a default of this
Lease.

Tenant's Authorized Representative shall be given access to the 25th
Floor Space during performance of the Landlord's Work, subject to such
person's compliance with all safety rules, and provided he/she does not
interfere with the Landlord's Work.
After the 25th Floor Space is substantially completed, Landlord and
Tenant shall agree to a punchlist of items which Landlord shall complete as
promptly as reasonably possible, subject to Long-Lead Items. Said punchlist
or the failure of Long-Lead Items to be installed shall have no effect on
Tenant's obligation to pay rent or to accept possession of the 25th Floor
Space and shall not result in an extension of the 25th Floor Space
Commencement Date. Long-Lead Items will be completed and installed as soon as
commercially reasonable.
"Substantial completion" occurs on the date on which the 25th Floor
Space is substantially complete and ready for occupancy in accordance with
the Construction Documents except for punch list items, the completion of
which will not materially adversely affect Tenant's ability to occupy the
25th Floor Space, and Long-Lead Items, which date Landlord and Tenant shall
agree on in good faith. Landlord will exercise due diligence in completing
all punch list items and Long-Lead Items. Tenant shall be entitled to
withhold payment of sums for uncompleted items identified on the punchlist
pending satisfactory completion of such uncompleted items.
Tenant shall not be charged for use of elevators during the construction
of Landlord Work and during actual move in to the building or at any time
during the term, other than through its Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses
and Real Estate Taxes.

any, shall conform to the suite security system specified by Landlord as

suite entry door (and hardware) on multi-tenanted floors from which Tenant
shall not vary.

d. Light Fixtures. All fixtures shall be of a recessed nature and flush
with the ceiling. All fixtures shall be subject to Landlord's approval, not
to be unreasonably withheld.
9. Installation of Items by Tenant.
As provided in the Lease, upon notice to Landlord, Tenant and its
agents and contractors shall have the right to enter the 25th Floor Space to
install equipment and fixtures and other work above Landlord's Work to
prepare the 25th Floor Space for Tenant's occupancy ("Tenant's Work")
provided they do not interfere with the Landlord's Work or violate any safety
rules. Such entry to and installation of work within the 25th Floor Space
shall not, in and of itself constitute or be deemed to be Tenant's (or any
person's claiming by, through or under Tenant) occupation of the 25th Floor
Space for the purpose of conducting Tenant's (or such other person's)
business. Before entering the 25th Floor Space to perform or cause to be
performed the Tenant's Work, Tenant shall provide to Landlord evidence of the
insurance coverages that Tenant is required to obtain and maintain under the
terms and conditions of the Lease. Any delays caused by Tenant's interference
shall be treated as Tenant Delays.
Any contractor engaged by Tenant shall be solely responsible for the
transportation, safekeeping, and storage of materials and equipment used in
the performance of the Tenant's Work, for the removal of waste and debris
resulting therefrom, and for any damage caused by them to any installation or
work performed by any other party. The Tenant's Work shall comply with all
applicable insurance requirements and all applicable laws and requirements
and shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner using only new, high
grade materials.
10. Tenant's Authorized Representative.
Tenant shall designate a representative ("Tenant's Authorized
Representative") as the person authorized to approve in writing all plans,
drawings, specifications, change orders, charges and approvals pursuant to
this Exhibit. No other party is authorized to act for or bind Tenant with
respect to any of the foregoing matters.
11. Disputes.
Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Work Letter
shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the
American Arbitration Association, unless the parties hereto otherwise mutually
agree. The determination of the arbitration shall be conclusive upon the
parties and judgment upon the same may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction over the parties and the subject matter of the dispute.
-11-
12. Indemnification and Waiver of Claims.
Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that the terms and
provisions of Sections 2, 4, 5, 11, 13, 16, 19, 23, 28 and 29 of the Lease
shall apply during the period commencing with Landlord's Work, through and
including the 25th Floor Space Commencement Date (including during the Term).

possession of the 25th Floor Space substantially complete by April 1, 1997,
subject to extensions caused by force majeure, and Tenant Delays (as defined
below), extended for one (1) day for each day of delay caused by force

accidents, failure of Landlord to obtain fuel or supplies, or any other
causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. The April 1, 1997, outside

any special order material, any special order items, and punchlist items.

day beyond those dates specified herein for Tenant to respond to notice from
Landlord or beyond those dates specified herein for Tenant to deliver
documents until Tenant so responds or deliver such documents and (ii) each
