building or project of which the Master Premises are a part, the
exercise of such right by Sublessor shall not constitute a
default or breach hereunder.

Landlord and as a material inducement to Landlord to execute the
Lease, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably, unconditionally,
jointly and severally guarantees the full, timely and complete
(a) payment of all rent and other sums payable by Tenant to
Landlord under the Lease, and any amendments or modifications
thereto by agreement or course of conduct, and (b) performance of
all covenants, representations and warranties made by Tenant and
all obligations to be performed by Tenant pursuant to the Lease,
and any amendments or modifications thereto by agreement or
course of conduct. The payment of those amounts and performance
of those obligations shall be conducted in accordance with all
terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Lease, without

security, (g) apply such security and direct the order or manner

performance, and not of collection. Upon any breach or default

rights or remedies against Tenant under the Lease, or otherwise,

party, (a) any right of subrogation and (f) any defense arising
out of the absence, impairment or loss of any right of
reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of
Guarantors against Landlord or any such security, whether

payment by Tenant or other circumstance which operates to toll
any statute of limitations as to Tenant shall operate to toll the
statute of limitations as to Guarantor.
5. Separate and Distinct Obligations. Each Guarantor
acknowledges and agrees that such Guarantor's obligations to
Landlord under this Guaranty are separate and distinct from
Tenant's obligations to Landlord under the Lease. The occurrence
of any of the following events shall not have any effect
whatsoever on any Guarantor's obligations to Landlord hereunder,
each of which obligations shall continue in full force or effect
as though such event had not occurred: (a) the commencement by
Tenant of a voluntary case under the federal bankruptcy laws, as
now constituted or hereafter amended or replaced, or any other
applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law (collectively, the "Bankruptcy Laws"), (b) the
consent by tenant to the appointment of or taking possession by a
receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator
or similar official of Tenant or for any substantial part of its
property, (c) any assignment by Tenant for the benefit of
creditors, (d) the failure of Tenant generally to pay its debts
as such debts become due, (a) the taking of corporate action by
Tenant in the furtherance of any of the foregoing; or (f) the
entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having
jurisdiction in respect of Tenant in any involuntary case under
the Bankruptcy Laws, or appointing a receiver, liquidator,
assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official)
of Tenant or for any substantial part of its property, or
ordering the winding-up or liquidation of any of its affairs and
the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in
effect for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days. The
liability of Guarantors under this Guaranty is not and shall not
be affected or impaired by any payment made to Landlord under or
related to the Lease for which Landlord is required to reimburse
Tenant pursuant to any court order or in settlement of any
dispute, controversy or litigation in any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other federal or state
debtor relief proceeding. If, during any such proceeding, the
Lease is assumed by Tenant or any trustee, or thereafter assigned
by Tenant or any trustee to a third party, this Guaranty shall
remain in full force and effect with respect to the full
performance of Tenant, any such trustee or any such third party's
obligations under the Lease If the Lease is terminated or
rejected during any such proceeding, or if any of the events
described in Subparagraphs (a) through (f) of this Paragraph 5
occur, as between Landlord and each Guarantor, Landlord shall
have the right to accelerate all of Tenant's obligations under
the Lease and each Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty.
In such event, all such obligations shall become immediately due
and payable by Guarantors to Landlord. Guarantors waive any
defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of
Tenant or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of
the liability of Tenant.
6. Subordination.
All existing and future advances by Guarantor to Tenant, and
all existing and future debts of Tenant to any Guarantor, shall
be subordinated to all obligations owed to Landlord under the
Lease and this Guaranty.
7. Successors and Assigns.
This Guaranty binds each Guarantor's personal representa-
tives, successors and assigns.
8. Encumbrances.
If Landlord's interest in the Property or the Lease, or the
rents, issues or profits therefrom, are subject to any deed of
trust, mortgage or assignment for security, any Guarantor's
acquisition of Landlord's interest in the Property or Lease shall
not affect any of Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty.
In such event, this Guaranty shall nevertheless continue in full
force and effect for the benefit of any mortgagee, beneficiary,
trustee or assignee or any purchaser at any sale by judicial
foreclosure or under any private power of sale, and their
successors and assigns. Any married Guarantor expressly agrees
that Landlord has recourse against any Guarantor's separate
property for all of such Guarantor's obligations hereunder.
9. Guarantor's Duty.
Guarantors assume the responsibility to remain informed of
the financial condition of Tenant and of all other circumstances
bearing upon the risk of Tenant's default, which reasonable
inquiry would reveal, and agree that Landlord shall have no duty
to advise Guarantors of information known to it regarding such
condition or any such circumstance.
10. Landlord's Reliance.
Landlord shall not be required to inquire into the powers of
Tenant or the officers, employees, partners or agents acting or
purporting to act on its behalf, and any indebtedness made or
created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers
shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
11. Incorporation of Certain Lease Provisions.
Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Landlord
that such Guarantor has received a copy of the Lease, has read or
had the opportunity to read the Lease, and understands the terms
of the Lease. The provisions in the Lease relating to the
execution of additional documents, legal proceedings by Landlord
against tenant, severability of the provisions of the Lease,
interpretation of the Lease, notices, waivers, the applicable
laws which govern the interpretation of the Lease and the
authority of the Tenant to execute the Lease are incorporated
herein in their entirety by this reference and made a part
hereof. Any reference in those provisions to "Tenant" shall mean
each Guarantor and any reference in those provisions to the
"Lease" shall mean this Guaranty, except that (a) any notice
which any Guarantor desires or is required to provide to Landlord
shall be effective only if signed by all Guarantors and (b) any
notice which Landlord desires or is required to provide to any
Guarantor shall be sent to such Guarantor at such Guarantor's

This Addendum to Sublease, dated this 22nd day of July 1996,
by and between BUNZL SOUTH FLORIDA, INC., a Florida Corporation,

Corporation as Sublessee, modified and supplements that certain
Sublease dated the date hereof between Sublessor and Sublessee.
Terms defined in the Sublease and used herein shall have the same
meaning as used in the Sublease. The provisions of this Addendum
supersede any inconsistent provisions in the Lease to the extent
of the inconsistency.
1. Sublessee has inspected the Premises to its satisfaction and
agrees to accept the Premises in "as is" condition, without any

made by Sublessor or its agent and without any obligation on the

except to ensure current HVAC, plumbing and electric systems are
in working order. All work is to be completed prior to August
15, 1996.
2. Sublessee and/or its licensed vendors shall be solely
responsible for the cost, permitting and performance of any and
all alterations, renovations, repairs and maintenance
attributable to Sublessee's use and occupancy of the Premises.
All renovations shall require Sublessor's and Master Lessor's
written approval prior to commencement.
3. Sublessor and Sublessee agree that the rent due under the
Sublease shall constitute Sublessee's total obligation to
Sublessor in respect of rent, (other than sales taxes, which
Sublessee shall pay). Sublessee shall pay direct to the
appropriate provider the cost of any utility or service being
supplied to the premises.
4. Provided that Sublessee does not default in the performance
of its obligations under the Sublease, Sublessor shall not be
entitled to any additional Security Deposit. In the event
Sublessor shall, as a result of any such default, retain or apply
all or any portion of the Security Deposit toward the cure of
such default, Sublessee shall thereupon be obligated to restore
the amount of the Security Deposit so retained or applied.
5. Sublessor hereby consents to the removal by Sublessee, from
time-to-time and at any time, of Sublessee's equipment, personal
property, inventory and other goods from the Premises, Sublessor
hereby waiving any right under the Sublease, Master Lease, or
pursuant to the laws of the State of Florida, to assert a
landlord's lien in respect of such property upon a default of
Sublessee. In addition and notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a
termination of this Sublease or upon a termination of Sublessee's
right to possession of the Premises in accordance with the
provisions of this Sublease, Sublessor shall be entitled to store
(and, if necessary, relocate for storage) Sublessee's property at
the expense of Sublessee if Sublessee shall fail to remove such
property from the Premises, and in the further event that
Sublessee shall fail to remove its property from the Premises or
from the place of storage within ninety (90) days next following
Sublessor's demand, Sublessor shall be entitled to dispose of
such property as though it had been abandoned by Sublessee.
6. Sublessee shall obtain and keep in force all insurance
required to be obtained and kept in force by Sublessor under the
Master Lease and shall deliver to Sublessor certificates of
insurance providing evidence of such coverage, naming Sublessor
as an additional insured as its interest may appear, and stating
that such insurance shall not be modified or cancelled except in
thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Sublessor.
7. Sublessor agrees to the erection of Sublessee's signage paid
for by Sublessee.
8. Sublessee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sublessor
from and against all losses, costs, damages, expenses and
liabilities; including, without limitation, attorney's's fees and
expenses, which Sublessor may incur or pay out by reason of (a)
any accidents, damages or injuries to persons or property
occurring in, on or about the Premises, (b) any breach or default
hereunder on Sublessee's part, (c) any work done in or to the
Premises (except for any work done in the Master Premises by
Lessor or Sublessor) or (d) any act, omission or negligence on
the part of Sublessee and/or its officers, employees, agents,
customers or invitees, or any person claiming through or under
Sublessee.
9. Sublessee hereby releases the Sublessor under the Master
Lease or anyone claiming through or under the Sublessor under the
Master Lease by way of subrogation or otherwise to the extent
that Sublessor is released under the Master Lease of liability or
responsibility pursuant to the provisions of the Master Lease,
and Sublessee will cause its insurance carriers to include any
clauses or endorsements in favor of the sublessor under the
Master Lease, which Sublessor is required to provide pursuant to
the provision of the Master Lease.
10. In any instance when Sublessor's consent or approval is
required under this Sublease, Sublessor's refusal to consent to
or approve any matter shall be deemed reasonable if such consent
or approval has not been obtained from Gran Central Corporation
under the Master Lease between Gran Central Corporation and Palm
Beach Paper Company. If Sublessee shall seek the approval by
or consent of Sublessor and Sublessor shall fail or refuse to
give such consent of approval, Sublessee shall not be entitled to
any damages for any withholding or delay of such approval or
consent by Sublessor, it being intended that Sublessee's sole
remedy shall be an action for injunction or specific performance
and that said remedy of an action for injunction or specified
performance shall be available only in those cases where
Sublessor shall have expressly agreed in writing not to
unreasonably withhold or delay its consent.
11. If for any reason the term of the Master Lease shall
terminate prior to the expiration date of this Sublease, this
Sublease shall thereupon be terminated and Sublessor shall not be
liable to Sublessee by reason thereof, unless both (a) Sublessee
shall not then be in default hereunder and (b) said termination
shall have been effected because of the breach of default of
Sublessor under the Master Lease, not the result of an act or
omission of Sublessee.
12. Sublessee shall not, by operation of law or otherwise,
assign, sell, mortgage, pledge or sublet the Premises or any part
or parts thereof, or grant any concession or license or otherwise
permit occupancy of all or any part of the Premises by any
