         control. If the leased premises are not separately metered for Tenant
         electric (lights and plugs), Lessee will pay in monthly installments,
         as additional rent to Lessor, at the annual rate of $1.25 per rentable
         sq. ft. per year for Tenant electricity charges.

         LESSOR shall have no obligation to provide utilities or equipment other

         commencement date of this lease. In the event LESSEE requires
         additional utilities or equipment, the installation and maintenance
         thereof shall be the LESSEE's sole obligation, provided that such
         installation shall be subject to the written consent of the LESSOR.

8.       USE OF LEASED PREMISES:

         The LESSEE shall use the leased premises only for the purpose of

         the city or town in which the premises are situated.

10.      FIRE INSURANCE: The LESSEE shall not permit any use of the leased
         premises which will make voidable any insurance on the property of

            invitees of the LESSEE, acknowledging that the leased premises are
            now in good order and the glass whole. The LESSEE shall not permit

         the building of which the leased premises are a part in the same
         condition as it is at the commencement of the term or as it may be put
         in during the term of this lease, reasonable wear and tear, damage by
         fire and other casualty only excepted, unless such maintenance is
         required because of the LESSEE or those for whose conduct the LESSEE is
         legally responsible.

12.      ALTERATIONS - ADDITIONS:

         A) The LESSEE shall not make structural alterations or additions to the
         leased premises, but may make non-structural alterations provided the
         LESSOR consents thereto in writing, which consent shall not be
         unreasonably withheld or delayed. All such allowed alterations shall be
         at LESSEE's expense and shall be in quality at least equal to the
         present construction. LESSEE shall not permit any mechanics' liens, or
         similar liens, to remain upon the leased premises for labor and
         material furnished to LESSEE or claimed to have been furnished to
         LESSEE in connection with work of any character performed or claimed to
         have been performed at the direction of LESSEE and shall cause any such
         lien to be released of record forthwith without cost to LESSOR. Any
         alterations or improvements made by the LESSEE shall become the
         property of the LESSOR at the termination of occupancy as provided
         herein.

         B)   (i) LESSOR agrees to construct tenant improvements, in accordance
              with the mutually agreeable floor plan as illustrated in Exhibit
              A. (ii) The LESSOR agrees that upon LESSEE'S request, LESSOR shall
              amortize the charges for the Tenant Improvements, up to a total of
              $200,000.00, over the lease term at an annual carrying charge of
              10%. LESSOR will Amend this Lease to incorporate the amortized
              Tenant Improvements upon final pricing, and the LESSEE shall pay
              monthly, as additional rent, the monthly amortized amount. (iii)
              In the event the charges for Tenant Improvements exceed the

                                       4



              $200,000.00 allowance, prior to occupancy LESSEE will pay the
              excess to LESSOR. (iv) In the event that LESSOR identifies that
              the charges for the requested Tenant Improvements will exceed the
              Allowance, LESSOR will identify the excess to LESSEE for prior
              review, and LESSEE shall, within five working days, accept the
              charges or modify the plans to reduce the costs, (v) The LESSEE
              may seek comparative estimates for the Tenant Improvements from a
              competent third party. In that event and if LESSEE demonstrates
              to LESSOR that the comparative estimate, was lower, but within
              5% of the LESSOR's charge, LESSOR shall reduce LESSOR's charges
              to the comparative estimate.

13.      ASSIGNMENT - SUBLEASING:

         The LESSEE shall not assign or sublet the whole or any part of the
         leased premises without LESSOR's prior written consent, which consent
         shall not to be unreasonably withheld, and upon LESSOR's determination
         that the assignee or sublessee is of equal or greater financial
         competence and will make similar or acceptable use of the Premises.
         Notwithstanding such consent, LESSEE shall remain liable to LESSOR for
         the payment of all rent and for the full performance of the covenants
         and conditions of this lease. See Addendum.

14.      SUBORDINATION:

         This lease shall be subject and subordinate to any and all mortgages,
         deeds of trust and other instruments in the nature of a mortgage, now
         or at any time hereafter, a lien or liens on the property of which the
         leased premises are a part and the LESSEE shall, when requested,
         promptly execute and deliver such written instruments as shall be
         necessary to show the subordination of this lease to said mortgages,
         deeds of trust or other such instruments in the nature of a mortgage.

15.      LESSOR'S ACCESS:

         The LESSOR or agents of the LESSOR may, at reasonable times, enter to
         view the leased premises and may remove placards and signs not approved
         and affixed as herein provided, and make repairs and alterations as
         LESSOR should elect to do and may show the leased premises to others,
         and at any time within three (3) months before the expiration of the
         term, may affix to any suitable part of the leased premises a notice

         hindrance or molestation.

16.      INDEMNIFICATION AND LIABILITY:

         The LESSEE shall save the LESSOR harmless from all loss and damage
         occasioned by the use or escape of water or by the bursting of pipes
         due to the negligence of the LESSEE or the invitees of the LESSEE, as
         well as from any claim or damage resulting from neglect in not removing
         snow and ice from the roof of the building or from the sidewalks
         bordering upon the premises so leased, or by any nuisance made or
         suffered on the leased premises,


                                       5



         unless such loss is caused by the neglect of the LESSOR. The removal

         to do business in Massachusetts and in good standing therein insuring
         the LESSOR and well as LESSEE against injury to persons or damage to
         property as provided. The LESSEE shall deposit with the LESSOR
         certificates for such insurance at or prior to the commencement of the
         term, and thereafter within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of
         any such policies. All such insurance certificates shall provide that
         such policies shall not be canceled without at least ten (10) days
         prior written notice to each assured named therein.

18.      FIRE, CASUALTY - EMINENT DOMAIN:

         Should a substantial portion of the leased premises, or of the property
         of which they are a part be substantially damaged by fire or other
         casualty, or be taken by eminent domain, the LESSOR may elect to
         terminate this lease. When such fire, casualty, or taking renders the
         leased premises substantially unsuitable for their intended use, a just
         and proportionate abatement of rent shall be made, and the LESSEE may
         elect to terminate this lease if;

         (a)      The LESSOR fails to give written notice within thirty (30)
                  days of intention to restore leased premises, or

         (b)      The LESSOR fails to restore the leased premises to a condition
                  substantially suitable for their intended use within ninety
                  (90) days of said fire, casualty or taking.

         The LESSOR reserves, and the LESSEE grants to the LESSOR, all rights
         which the LESSEE may have for damages or injury to the leased premises
         for any taking by eminent domain, except for damage to the LESSEE's
         fixtures, property or equipment.

19.      DEFAULT AND BANKRUPTCY:

         In the event that:

         (a)      The LESSEE shall default in the payment of any installment of
                  rent or other sum herein specified and such default shall
                  continue for ten (10) days after written notice thereof; or

         (b)      The LESSEE shall default in the observance or performance of
                  any other of the LESSEE's covenants, agreement, or obligations
                  hereunder and such default shall not be corrected within
                  thirty (30) days after written notice thereof; or

         (c)      The LESSEE shall be declared bankrupt or insolvent according
                  to law, or, if any assignment shall be made of LESSEE's
                  property for the benefit of creditors,

                                       6


         then the LESSOR shall have the right thereafter, while such default
         continues, to re-enter and take complete possession of the leased
         premises, to declare the term of this lease ended, and remove the
         LESSEE's effects, without prejudice to any remedies which might be
         otherwise used for arrears of rent or other default. The LESSEE shall
         indemnify the LESSOR against all loss of rent and other payments which
         the LESSOR may incur by reason of such termination during the residue
         of the term. If the LESSEE shall default, after reasonable notice
         thereof, in the observance or performance of any conditions or
         covenants on LESSEE's part to be observed or performed under or by
         virtue of any of the provisions in any article of this lease, the
         LESSOR, without being under any obligation to do so and without thereby
         waiving such default, may remedy such default for the account and at
         the expense of the LESSEE. If the LESSOR makes any expenditures or
         incurs any obligations for the payment of money in connection
         therewith, including but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees in
         instituting, prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding, such
         sums paid or obligations insured, with interest at the rate of 15 per
         cent per annum and costs, shall be paid to the LESSOR by the LESSEE as
         additional rent.

20.      NOTICE:

         Any notice from the LESSOR to the LESSEE relating to the leased
         premises or to the occupancy thereof, shall be deemed duly served, if
         left at the leased premises addressed to the LESSEE, or if mailed to
         the leased premises, registered or certified mail, return receipt
         requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the LESSEE. Any notice from
         the LESSEE to the LESSOR relating to the leased premises or to the
         occupancy thereof, shall be deemed duly served, if mailed to the LESSOR
         by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage
         prepaid, addressed to the LESSOR at such address as the LESSOR may from
         time to time advise in writing. ALL rent notices shall be paid and sent
         to the LESSOR at 411 Waverley Oaks Road, Suite 340, Waltham, MA 02452.

                                       7



21.      SURRENDER:

         The LESSEE shall at the expiration or other termination of this lease
         remove all LESSEE's goods and effects from the leased premises,
         (including, without hereby limiting the generality of the foregoing,
         all signs and lettering affixed or painted by the LESSEE, either inside
         or outside the leased premises). LESSEE shall deliver to the LESSOR the
         leased premises and all keys, locks thereto, and other fixtures
         connected therewith and all alterations and additions made to or upon
         the leased premises, in good condition, damage by fire or other
         casualty only excepted. In the event of the LESSEE's failure to remove
         any of LESSEE's property from the premises, LESSOR is hereby
         authorized, without liability to LESSEE for loss or damage thereto, and
         at the sole risk of LESSEE, to remove and store any of the property at
         LESSEE's expense, or to retain same under LESSOR's control or to sell
         at public or private sale, without notice any or all of the property
         not so removed and to apply the net proceeds of such sale to the
         payment of any sum due hereunder, or to destroy such property.

22.      LATE FEES:

         LESSEE agrees that because of actual damages for a late payment or a
         dishonored check are difficult to fix or ascertain, but recognizing
         that damage and injury result therefore, LESSEE agrees that if payments
         of rent and other obligations are not received in hand by LESSOR five
         (5) days after the date is due, LESSEE agrees to pay liquidated damages
         of $100.00 plus 18% per annum on the delinquent amount from the due
         date. The postmark on the payment, received plus two (2) days, shall be
         conclusive evidence of whether the payment is delinquent. However,
         LESSOR is not responsible for late deliveries by U.S. Mail. LESSEE
         agrees to pay a liquidated damage of $25.00 for each dishonored check.
         In the event that two or more of the LESSEE's checks are dishonored in
         a 12 month period, the LESSOR, in addition to other Rights, shall have
         the right to demand payment by Certified Check or Money Order.

         authorized by the Lessor in writing. The Lessor shall have the right to
         prohibit any sign or other advertising on the building premises by any
         Lessee which in the reasonable judgment of the Lessor tends to impair
         the reputation of the building or its desirability as a building for
         offices or for financial, professional, or other businesses, and upon
         written notice from the Lessor the Lessee shall discontinue such sign
         or other advertising. The Lessor will place in the main hall a tablet

         responsible Lessee. Each Lessee is required to notify and arrange with
         the building superintendent when safes furniture, or like property are
         to be taken into or out of the building. No freight, furniture, or
         bulky package or matter of any description shall be carried on the

         for such purposes shall, during the continuance of the lease, make use
         of the services of the janitor of the building unless other
         arrangements have been approved by Lessor in writing, and no tenant
         shall employ any person or persons other than the janitor of the
         building for the purpose of cleaning, or of taking charge of the
         premises unless other arrangements have been approved by Lessor in
         writing. Each Lessee agrees that the Lessor shall be in no way
         responsible to any Lessee for any loss of property from the premises,
         however occurring, or for any damage done to the Lessee's furniture or
         other effects by the janitor or any of his employees, unless Lessee
         shall establish gross negligence or willful wrongdoing by such person
         or persons.

11.      Nothing shall be thrown out of the windows or doors or down the

         escape or other projection of the building.

12.      No animals shall be kept in or about the building.

13.      No Lessee will introduce or admit into the building any telephone or
         telegraph wire or any other means of external communication without the
         Lessor's consent, other than by connection to outlets provided by the
         Lessor, and the Lessor reserves the right to rescind such consent at
         any time, in which case the Lessee agrees to remove any such wire or
         means, provided, that Lessor shall not restrict Lessee's means of
         external communication in any manner which unreasonably interferes with
         the operation of Lessee's business.

14.      No machine or machinery of any kind other than a typewriter and
         standard office equipment, shall be operated on or in the building,
         without the Lessor's consent which consent shall not be unreasonably
         withheld.

15.      All complaints by a Lessee shall be made in writing to the Lessor. Each
         tenant shall give to the Lessor's building superintendent prompt
         written notice of any damage known to Lessee or defect in pipes, wires,
         appliances, or fixtures in or about the premises and of any damage to
         any part of the premises.

16.      Lessee shall not be permitted to use or keep in the building any
         kerosene, burning fluid, or other illuminating material or inflammable
         or explosive substance or materials, except as customary in office or
         computer facilities with the Lessor's consent; any such fluids kept on
         the premises to be stored in accordance with state and local fire
         regulations.

17.      No Lessee shall use or permit any room or portion thereof to be used by
         anyone, for the purpose of lodging or sleeping therein. This is not
         construed to prevent children from sleeping while at Lessee's facility
         during business hours.

18.      The Lessor reserves the right to rescind any of these rules and to make
         such other and further reasonable and uniform rules and regulations as
         in its reasonable judgment may from time to time be needful for the
         safety, care, and cleanliness of the building and property, and for the
         preservation of good order therein; such other and further rules,
         however, not be inconsistent with the proper and rightful enjoyment by
         the Lessee under the within lease of the premises.
