Re: Lease for entire Fourth floor at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx
Ladies and Gentlemen:

First, in consideration for the terms and conditions of the lease, you
shall "build out" the entire space of the fourth floor and all plans,

Second, the work shall be done by the building contractor, with whom we
both have worked in the past and have confidence.
Third, the "build out" must be of a character and quality that equals or
exceeds the work done on the third floor so that the fourth floor will be a
first class office space.

and must be commenced on or before April 1, 1998, and be substantially completed
within a reasonable time thereafter, and in any event, no later than August 1,
1998.
Fifth, your plans and specifications are subject to our reasonable
approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
