                      FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT

This First Amendment to Lease Agreement (the "Amendment") is made and entered
into as of September 17, 1998, by and between LINCOLN-WHITEHALL PACIFIC, LLC, A
DELAWARE LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY ("LANDLORD"), and SHOE INN, INC., DBA SHOE
PAVILION, A WASHINGTON CORPORATION ("TENANT"), with reference to the following
facts.

                                   RECITALS

A.   Landlord and Tenant have entered into that certain Lease Agreement dated as
of October 28, 1996 (the "Lease"), for the leasing of certain premises
consisting of approximately 58,028 rentable square feet located at 3200 Regatta

Premises are more fully described in the Lease.

B.   Landlord and Tenant now wish to amend the Lease to provide for, among other
things, the addition of certain contiguous space to the Original Premises, all
upon and subject to each of the terms, conditions, and provisions set forth
herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby
acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

     1.   Recitals:  Landlord and Tenant agree that the above recitals are true
          --------                                                             
          and correct and are hereby incorporated herein as though set forth in
          full.

     2.   Premises:
          -------- 

               2.1  Commencing on January 1, 1999 (the "AP Commencement Date")
          there shall be added to the Original Premises those certain premises
          consisting of approximately 34,000 rentable square feet located at
          3200 Regatta Blvd., Unit A, Richmond, California (the "Additional
          Premises"), which Additional Premises are depicted on the site plan
          attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A. Tenant hereby
          acknowledges that the Additional Premises are presently being occupied
          by IMSI (the "Existing Tenant"). Landlord's delivery to Tenant of
          possession of the Additional Premises by January 1, 1999 is contingent
          upon the Existing Tenant vacating the Additional Premises and
          surrendering possession thereof to Landlord by December 31, 1998. If
          Landlord cannot deliver to Tenant possession of the Additional
          Premises broom clean but without the tenant improvements set forth
          below, on January l, 1999, Landlord shall neither be subject to any
          liability nor shall the validity of the Lease be affected, provided,
          the Lease Term applicable to the Additional Premises shall be commence
          on the date possession is tendered and in no event shall the
          Expiration Date be extended.

               2.2  For purposes of the Lease, from and after the AP
          Commencement Date, the "Premises" as defined in Section 1 of the Lease
          shall mean and refer to the aggregate of the Original premises and the
          Additional Premises consisting of a combined total of approximately
          92,028 rentable square feet located at 3200 Regatta Blvd., Units A and
          F, Richmond, California. Accordingly, from and after the AP
          Commencement Date, all references in this Amendment and in the Lease
          to the term "Premises" shall mean and refer to the Original Premises
          and the Additional Premises. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that for
          purposes of the Lease, from and after the AP Commencement Date, the
          rentable square footage area of the Premises shall be conclusively
          deemed to be 92,028 rentable square feet. In addition to the
          foregoing, it is the parties express intention that the balance of the
          Term of the Lease for the Original Premises and the Additional
          Premises be coterminous with the Expiration Date of the initial Term
          as specified in the Lease and that any option or renewal term
          described in the Lease shall be applicable to both the Premises and
          the Additional Premises.

               2.3  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or
          in the Lease, Landlord shall neither be subject to any liability, nor
          shall the validity of the Lease be affected if Landlord is notable to
          deliver to Tenant possession of the Additional Premises by the AP
          Commencement Date.  Provided, however, Tenant's obligation to pay Rent
          on

 
          * However, if Landlord does not deliver possession of Additional
          Premises to Tenant by 3/1/99, Tenant shall have the right to terminate
          its obligation regarding the Additional Premises as set forth in this
          Amendment.

          the Additional Premises shall commence on the date possession is
          tendered.
