Section 1-3. Delivery of Possession; Consent to Combining Premises With

the Premises to Tenant immediately upon execution of this Lease by Landlord and
Tenant. The Premises will be delivered in their "AS-IS" condition. Tenant may
cause such alterations to be made to the Premises as Tenant may desire to
prepare the Premises for Tenant's intended use of the Premises. As more
particularly set forth below, Landlord acknowledges that Tenant intends to
combine the Premises with those premises (the "Adjoining Premises") leased by
Tenant pursuant to a Lease Agreement (the "Adjoining Lease"), dated February 6,
1981, between Xxxxxx Xxxxx, as landlord ("Adjoining Landlord"), and Glenview
Guaranty Savings & Loan Association, Tenant's remote predecessor in interest, as
tenant, and to use and operate the Premises and the Adjoining Premises as a
single unit. Landlord specifically consents to Tenant demolishing, opening

Premises and the Adjoining Premises or such other portions of the Premises as
Tenant may desire (the "Adjoining Walls") to accommodate such combination.
Tenant will deliver to Landlord Tenant's plans and specifications relating to
such alterations of the Premises which will demonstrate to Landlord's reasonable
satisfaction that the Premises as so altered will be structurally sound.
Landlord represents to Tenant that, as of the date of this Lease, except as set
forth below, the Premises and the Improvements, and all equipment serving the
Premises and Improvements are in good condition and working order, that the
Premises and Improvements comply will all applicable state, federal, municipal,
and other laws, rules, and regulations applicable to the Premises and
Improvements and that the Premises and Improvements may lawfully be used for
Tenant's intended purpose as set forth in this Lease, and that there is no
breach or violation by Landlord or by the Premises or Improvements of the
conditions, convenants, declarations, rules, or regulations of the Condominium
Documents, as defined below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord
acknowledges that the parking lot serving the Premises is in need of repair.
Rand Olive Condominium Association, Inc. (the "Condominium Association") will
cause the parking lot to be patched, seal coated, and striped on or before June
30, 1992. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant may desire to modify the front
stairs of the main entrance of the building containing the Premises. Landlord
agrees to support Tenant's efforts to so modify the stairway at a reasonable
cost. Landlord agrees to cast all votes in Landlord's control, and to cause all
affiliates of Landlord to cast all votes in such affiliates' control, in the
same manner as Tenant cast the votes controlled by Tenant in any meeting of the
Condominium Association at which such modifications are voted upon.
Section 1-4. Options to Renew Term.
In accordance with Section 1-1 of this Lease, Landlord does hereby grant to
Tenant the right, privilege and option to renew this Lease for two (2)
successive five (5) year periods (collectively, the "Option Periods") upon the
same terms and conditions as herein contained except as otherwise provided in
this Section. The Base Rent during the first Option Period will be as set forth
below. The Base Rent during the
2
second Option Period will be equal to the market rent for the Premises as of the
commencement of the first day of the second Option Period. For the purposes of
this section, "market rent" is the rent for which the Premises would be leased
to a tenant of similar creditworthiness as Tenant, for uses similar to Tenant's
use, and for terms similar to the terms of this Lease, less all applicable
concessions and other economic inducements then customarily given to new tenants
of similar leased premises. The market rent will be determined by agreement of
the parties and/or by appraisal, as provided below. The Option Period will
commence on the date immediately following the expiration of the initial Lease
term or the expiration of the first Option Period, if applicable.
Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of the impending expiration of the
initial Lease term or the first Option Period, as applicable, at least 210 days
prior to the expiration thereof. With respect to the first Option Period, Tenant
thereafter shall exercise its option by giving Landlord written notice of its
intent to renew at least 180 days prior to the expiration of the initial Lease
term.
With respect to the second Option Period, together with Landlord's notice to
Tenant, Landlord will also deliver to Tenant Landlord's estimation of the then
market rent for the Premises for purposes of establishing the rent during the
second Option Period. Tenant will have a period of 30 days after receiving such
notice within which to either accept Landlord's estimation of market rent or to
propose a different estimate of market rent. If Tenant accepts Landlord's
estimation of market rent, such estimation will be the rent during the second
Option Period if Tenant exercises its option to extend the term this Lease into
the second Option Period. If Tenant proposes a different estimate of market
rent, Landlord will have a period of 10 days after receiving such proposal
within which to either accept Tenant's estimation of market rent or to notify
Tenant in writing of Landlord's decision to submit the issue of market rent to
appraisal, as provided below. If Landlord accepts Tenant's estimation of market
rent, such estimation will be the rent during the second Option Period if Tenant
exercises its option to extend th term of this Lease into the second Option
Period. If Landlord notifies Tenant of Landlord's election to submit the rent
issue to appraisal, then, together with such notice, Landlord will submit the
name of an appraiser, qualified in the area of appraising the market rental
value of properties similar to the Premises. Tenant will have a period of 10
days within which to either accept the appraiser submitted by Landlord as the
sole appraiser or to submit the matter to a panel of appraisers. If Tenant
accepts such appraiser as the sole appraiser, such appraiser's determination of
market rent will be binding on the parties if Tenant exercises its option to
extend the term of this Lease into the second Option Period. If Tenant does not
so accept such appraiser, Tenant will so notify Landlord and, together with such
notice, Tenant will submit the name of an appraiser qualified in the area of
appraising the market rental value of properties similar to the Premises. The
two appraisers so selected by Landlord and Tenant will name a third appraiser
qualified in the area of appraising the market rental value of properties
similar
3
to the Premises, and such three appraisers will independently estimate the then
market rental for the Premises and the market rental value of the Premises will
be the arithmatic average of the two appraised values which are closet together.
In the event that there is a sole appraiser, Landlord and Tenant will each pay
one-half of the costs and expenses of such appraiser. In the event that there is
a panel of appraisers, Landlord will pay all of the costs of the appraiser named
by Landlord, Tenant will pay all of the costs of the appraiser named by Tenant,
and Landlord and Tenant will each pay one-half of the third appraiser named by
the other two appraisers. Tenant will notify Landlord as to whether Tenant will
exercise its option to evoke the second Option Period within 30 days after the
date on which the market rent has been determined.

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 in force and effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring
at such a time that the releasor'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 releasor to recover
thereunder.

rights of Tenant hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to the lien
of any mortgage or mortgages whether now on the Premises or whether hereafter
placed on the Premises or any part thereof, except Tenant's property or trade
fixtures, and to any and all renewals, modifications, replacements, extensions
or substitutions of any such mortgage or mortgages (collectively, "Mortgage"),
provided, nevertheless, each Mortgage shall contain a provision to the effect
that so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease, or any renewal
thereof, no foreclosure of the lien of such Mortgage or any other proceeding in
respect thereof shall divest, impair, modify, abrogate or otherwise adversely
affect any interest or rights whatsoever of Tenant under this Lease. Landlord
will use Landlord's best efforts to obtain from Landlord's existing mortgagee
with respect to the Property a written non-disturbance agreement in accordance
with the foregoing provision.

for such mortgagee's approval and is subject to such approval, and, this Lease,

Tenant shall immediately repair the Premises at Tenant's expense.
Section 4-15. Condominium; Right to Vote. The Premises are part of the Rand
Olive Condominium (the "Condominium"). As long as Tenant is not in default under
this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to participate in all meetings of the
owners of the Condominium and shall have the right to vote Landlord's vote as a
unit owner of the Premises, or give a proxy therefor. Landlord shall execute any
proxy necessary to establish Tenant of record as the holder of the vote
attributable to the Premises. Landlord has delivered to Tenant copies of the
Rand Olive Condominium Declaration, the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of
the Condominium Association, all rules and regulations of the Condominium and
the Condominium Association, and all other similar documents relating to the
Condominium and the Condominium Association (collectively, the "Condominium
Documents"). Landlord will not agree to any modification to the Condominium
Documents without Tenant's prior approval. Landlord will deliver to Tenant
notice of any proposed modification of the Condominium Documents and copies of
any documents
13
or other materials relating to such proposal which may be in Landlord's
possession or control.
Section 4-16. Right of First Refusal; Expansion Option Space. Landlord is the
owner of the premises directly beneath the Premises (the "Associates Expansion
Premises") and the owner of the premises directly beneath the Adjacent Premises
(the "Additional Expansion Premises") (the Associates Expansion Premises and the
Additional Expansion Premises may be referred to collectively as the "Expansion
Premises"). Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the following rights with respect
to the Expansion Premises.
Tenant, upon 180 days written notice to Landlord, may elect to rent all of any
portion of the Associates Expansion Premises. If Tenant so elects to rent all or
any portion of the Associates Expansion Premises, Landlord will cause such
premises to be available to Tenant upon the date specified by Tenant in such
notice provided that such specified date will be reasonably sufficient to permit
Landlord time to prepare such premises for delivery to Tenant.
Tenant will have the right to rent all or any portion of the Additional
Expansion Premises commencing at the end of the term of the existing leases
affecting the Additional Expansion Premises or of any subsequent lease of such
premises. Landlord will give Tenant 210 days notice of the pending termination
of a lease affecting the Additional Expansion Premises, unless such lease would
terminate earlier that 210 days from such notice due to no default by Landlord,
such as, for example, due to a default by the tenant under such lease, in which
case Landlord would give Tenant as much notice as Landlord reasonably could give
under the circumstances. Tenant would have a period of 30 days within which to
notify Landlord of Tenant's exercise of Tenant's rights under this Section.
The lease of any Expansion Premises would be upon the same terms and conditions
as contained in this Lease except that the Base Rent with respect to such
Expansion Premises would be the then market rental for such Expansion Premises.
The then market rental would be determined by agreement of the parties or by
arbitration, in accordance with the procedures set forth is Section 1-4 of the
Lease.
If Tenant elects to rent less than all of the available Expansion Premises, the
portion of the Expansion Premises not so rented would be an architecturally
complete space of a reasonably marketable size and configuration.
Landlord will deliver the Expansion Premises to Tenant in its then "as-is"
condition, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.
Landlord hereby also grants to Tenant the right of first refusal with respect to
all Expansion Premises as provided in this Section. If Landlord desires to lease
all or any portion of the Expansion Premises to any party, Landlord will first
offer such space to Tenant together with the terms and conditions upon which
Landlord intends to offer such
14
space for rent. Tenant will have a period of 30 days within which to notify
Landlord as to whether Tenant desires to rent the space offered upon the terms
offered. If Tenant does not accept such offer, Landlord may rent the offered to
space to any party provided that the economic terms of such rental are not more
favorable to such party as those which were offered to Tenant. If Landlord
desires to rent such space upon terms which are economically more favorable to
such party, Landlord will first offer such space to Tenant upon such more
favorable terms. Tenant will have a period of 15 days within which to accept
such terms. If Tenant does not accept such terms, Landlord may rent the offered
space to any party on such terms.

Eminent Domain, Damage or Destruction of Premises
-------------------------------------------------
Section 5-1. Eminent Domain. If the entire Premises, or the Adjacent Premises,
or such part of the Premises or the Adjacent Premises, as, in Tenant's judgment,
renders the remainder of the combined area of the Premises and the Adjacent
Premises unsuitable for Tenant's continued use, shall be taken in appropriation
proceedings or by any rights of eminent domain, then this Lease shall terminate
and be void from the time when possession thereof is required for public use,
and such taking shall not operate as or be deemed an eviction of the Tenant or a
breach of Landlord's covenant for quiet enjoyment; but Tenant shall pay all rent
due, and perform and observe all other covenants hereof, up to the time when
possession is required for public use; provided, however, that if in Tenant's
judgment, the combined area of the Premises and the Adjacent Premises after such
taking can be made to be suitable for Tenant's continued use, and if two (2)
years or more of the term hereof (including the extension of such term) then
remains unexpired or available, and if the remaining Premises and Adjacent
Premises can be substantially restored within sixty (60) days, then, at Tenant's
option, this Lease shall not terminate, but Landlord shall, at Landlord's sole
expense, restore the Premises to a condition satisfactory to Tenant. The rent
payable by Tenant during the period of restoration will be reduced by a
reasonable amount, but after such restoration, the rent herein reserved shall be
paid by Tenant as herein provided during the remainder of the term hereof abated
by the percentage that the fair market value of the Premises, attributable
solely to the land and Improvements, has been reduced because of such taking.
Said market value immediately before and after such taking shall be determined
by agreement of the parties or, failing agreement of the parties within thirty
(30) days of the effective date of such taking, by a local Independent Fee
Appraiser selected by mutual agreement of Landlord and Tenant, which appraiser's
decision will be final and binding on the parties.
The cost of such appraiser shall be borne equally by Landlord and Tenant.
Tenant shall have the right at Tenant's sole cost and expense to assert a
separate claim or join in Landlord's claim in any condemnation
15
proceeding for its personal property, Tenant's improvements, loss of value in
Tenant's leasehold estate, moving expenses or any other claims Tenant may have.
Tenant shall be entitled to and shall receive that portion of any award or
payment made which is attributable solely to Tenant's claims, and Landlord shall
be entitled to and shall receive that portion of any award or payment made which
is attributable solely to the land and Improvements erected thereon.
Section 5-2. Damage or Destruction of Improvements. In the event the
Improvements shall be rendered untenantable by fire or other casualty, Landlord
shall within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of such damage or
destruction, repair or replace the Improvements to substantially the same
condition as prior to the damage or destruction. If Landlord fails to commence
repair of the damage or destruction within thirty (30) days from the date of
such damage or destruction, or if the Improvements have not been replaced or
repaired to such condition within one hundred twenty (120) days, Tenant, at
Tenant's option (to be exercised by written notice to Landlord), may terminate
this Lease, or Tenant may cause such repairs to be completed, and any cost or
expense incurred by Tenant with respect to such repairs will be immediately
reimbursed by Landlord. If Landlord fails to so reimburse Tenant, Tenant, at
Tenant's option, may off set the amount of such costs and expenses against the
rent due under this Lease. The rent herein required to be paid shall xxxxx
during the period of such untenantability.
If the Improvements shall be damaged in part by fire or other casualty, but
still remain tenantable, Landlord shall repair the Improvements to substantially
the same condition as prior to the damage. During the period of such repairs and
restorations, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect, provided,
however, that Tenant shall be required to pay the rent herein reserved abated by
the percentage of area destroyed as compared to the total area herein demised,
unless such fire or other casualty is caused by Tenant's negligence in which
case the rental shall not xxxxx but will continue unaffected during the repair
period. If Landlord fails to commence repair of the damage or destruction within
thirty (30) days from the date of such damage or destruction, or if the
Improvements have not been replaced or repaired to such condition within one
hundred twenty (120) days, Tenant, at Tenant's option (to be exercised by
written notice to Landlord), may terminate this Lease, or Tenant may cause such
repairs to be completed, and any cost or expense incurred by Tenant with respect
to such repairs will be immediately reimbursed by Landlord. If Landlord fails to
so reimburse Tenant, Tenant, at Tenant's option, may off set the amount of such
costs and expenses against the rent due under this Lease.
In the event that any damage or destruction occurs during the last twelve (12)
months of the original term of this Lease or any extension of the term, to the
extent of fifty (50%) percent or more of the insurable value of the
Improvements, Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the
date of destruction or damage, by giving notice of such election will fifteen
(15) days after such damage or destruction. In such event, Landlord shall
receive the proceeds of the
16
insurance without obligation to rebuild or restore the Premises, and shall
execute any waiver which may be required of it by any or Landlord. Any dispute
which arises under this Section regarding the negligence of Tenant shall be
settled by arbitration pursuant to the provisions of Section 6-1.
