NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and premises set

to preclude Employee from (i) engaging in
<Page>
Minority Interest Passive Investments (as defined below), including Minority
Interest Passive Investments in, or relating to the ownership, development,
operation, management, or leasing of, commercial real estate properties or (ii)
participating as an officer or director of, or advisor to, any charitable or

holding, and exercising the voting rights associated with an investment made
through (i) the purchase of securities (including partnership interests) that
represent a non-controlling, minority interest in an entity or (ii) the lending
of money, in either case with the purpose or intent of obtaining a return on
such investment but without management by Employee of the property or business
to which such investment directly or indirectly relates and without any business
or strategic consultation by Employee with such entity.
3. COMPENSATION.
(a) BASE SALARY. The Company shall pay Employee an annual salary of
Two Hundred Eighty-Five Thousand Dollars ($285,000) (the "BASE SALARY"), payable

(including tax withholding), but in no event less frequently than monthly.
Employee's Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually by the Board of
Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the
"COMPENSATION COMMITTEE") and may be increased but not decreased in its
discretion.
(b) BONUS. On each annual compensation determination date
established by the Company during the Term, the Company shall review the
performance of the Company and of Employee during the prior year, and the
Company may provide Employee with additional compensation as a bonus if the
Board of Directors, or the Compensation Committee, in its discretion, determines
that Employee's contribution to the Company warrants such additional payment and
the Company's anticipated financial performance for the present period permits
such payment.
4. BENEFITS.
(a) MEDICAL/DENTAL INSURANCE. Employee shall be entitled to
participate in any and all employee benefit plans, including all medical and
dental insurance plans as in effect from time to time for senior executives of
the Company. Such participation shall be subject to (i) the terms of the
applicable plan documents, (ii) generally applicable policies of the Company,
and (iii) the discretion of the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee
or any administrative or other committee provided for in, or contemplated by,
such plan. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to create any
obligation on the part of the Company to establish any such plan or to maintain
the effectiveness of any such plan which may be in effect from time to time.
(b) LIFE INSURANCE/DISABILITY INSURANCE. The Company shall provide
Employee with such life and/or disability insurance as the Company may from time

applicable plan documents, (ii) generally applicable policies of the Company,
and (iii) the discretion of the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee,
or any administrative or other committee provided for in, or contemplated by,
such plan.
(i) TAXATION OF PAYMENTS AND BENEFITS. The Company shall undertake
to make deductions, withholdings and tax reports with respect to payments and
benefits under this Agreement to the extent that it reasonably and in good faith
believes that it is required to make such deductions, withholdings and tax
reports. Payments under this Agreement shall be in amounts net of any such
deductions or withholdings. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to
require the Company to make any payments to compensate the Employee for any
adverse tax effect associated with any payments or benefits or for any deduction
or withholding from any payment or benefit.
5. INDEMNIFICATION. To the full extent permitted by law and subject to
the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, the Company shall
indemnify Employee with respect to any actions commenced against Employee in his
capacity as a director or officer or former director or officer of the Company,
or any affiliate thereof for which he may serve in such capacity, and the
Company shall advance on a timely basis any expenses incurred in defending such
actions. The obligation to indemnify hereunder shall survive the termination of

this Agreement. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to secure and
maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance with respect to Employee.
6. COMPANY AUTHORITY/POLICIES. Employee agrees to observe and comply with
the rules and regulations of the Company as adopted by its Board of Directors
respecting the performance of his duties and to carry out and perform orders,
directions and policies communicated to him from time to time by the Board of
Directors.
7. RECORDS/NONDISCLOSURE/COMPANY POLICIES.
(a) GENERAL. All records, financial statements and similar documents
obtained, reviewed or compiled by Employee in the course of the performance by
him of services for the Company, whether or not confidential information or
trade secrets, shall be the exclusive property of the Company. Employee shall
have no rights in such documents upon any termination of this Agreement.
(b) CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Employee will not disclose to any
person or entity (except as required by applicable law, the rules of the New
York Stock Exchange, or otherwise in connection with the performance of his
duties and responsibilities hereunder), or use for his own benefit or gain, any
confidential information of the Company obtained by him incident to his
employment with the Company. Employee shall take all reasonable steps to
safeguard any confidential information and to protect such confidential
information against disclosure, misuse, loss, or theft. The term "CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION" includes, without limitation, financial information, business
plans, prospects, and opportunities which have been discussed or considered by
the management of the Company, but does not include any information which has
become part of the public domain by means other than Employee's non-observance
of his obligations hereunder.
This Paragraph 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
8. TERMINATION/SEVERANCE.
(a) GENERAL.
(i) AT WILL EMPLOYMENT. Employee's employment hereunder is
"at will" and, therefore, may be terminated at any time, with or without cause,
at the option of the Company, subject only to the severance obligations under
this Paragraph 8.
(ii) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Except for termination as a
result of Employee's death as specified in Subparagraph 8(b), any termination of
Employee's employment by the Company or any such termination by Employee shall
be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For
purposes of this Agreement, a "NOTICE OF TERMINATION" shall mean a notice which
shall indicate the specific termination provision hereunder relied upon by the
terminating party.
(iii) DATE OF TERMINATION. "DATE OF TERMINATION" shall mean:
(A) if Employee's employment is terminated by his death, the date of his death;
(B) if Employee's employment is terminated on account of disability under
Subparagraph 8(c), the date on which
4
<Page>
Notice of Termination is given; (C) if Employee's employment is terminated by
the Company for Cause under Subparagraph 8(d), the date on which a Notice of
Termination is given; (D) if Employee's employment is terminated by the Company
without Cause under Subparagraph 8(e)(i), thirty (30) days after the date on
which a Notice of Termination is given; and (E) if Employee's employment is
terminated by Employee under Subparagraph 8(e)(ii) or 8(f), thirty (30) days
after the date on which a Notice of Termination is given.
(b) DEATH. Employee's employment hereunder shall terminate upon his
death. If Employee's employment terminates by reason of his death, the Company
shall, within ninety (90) days of death, pay in a lump sum amount to such person
as Employee shall designate in a notice filed with the Company or, if no such
person is designated, to Employee's estate, Employee's accrued and unpaid Base
Salary to his date of death, plus his accrued and unpaid target bonus, prorated
for the number of days actually employed in the then current calendar year. All
unvested stock options and stock-based grants shall immediately vest in
Employee's estate or other legal representatives and become exercisable or
nonforfeitable, and Employee's estate or other legal representatives shall have
such period of time to exercise the stock options as is provided in the Stock
Option Plan and agreements with Employee pursuant thereto. For a period of
eighteen (18) months following the Date of Termination, and subject to the
continued copayment of premium amounts by the Employee's spouse and dependents,
the Employee's spouse and dependents shall continue to participate in the
Company's health insurance plan upon the same terms and conditions in effect on
the Date of Termination, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the continuation of health
benefits under this Subparagraph shall reduce and count against the rights of
the Employee's spouse and dependents under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA"). In addition to the foregoing,
any payments to which Employee's spouse, beneficiaries, or estate may be
entitled under any employee benefit plan shall also be paid in accordance with
the terms of such plan or arrangement. Such payments, in the aggregate, shall
fully discharge the Company's obligations hereunder.
(c) DISABILITY. If, as a result of Employee's incapacity due to
physical or mental illness, Employee shall have been absent from his duties
hereunder on a full-time basis for one hundred eighty (180) calendar days in the
aggregate in any twelve (12) month period, the Company may terminate Employee's
employment hereunder. During any period that Employee fails to perform his
duties hereunder as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness,
Employee shall continue to receive his accrued and unpaid Base Salary and
accrued and unpaid target bonus, prorated for the number of days actually
employed in the then current calendar year, until Employee's employment is
terminated due to disability in accordance with this Subparagraph (c) or until
Employee terminates his employment in accordance with Subparagraph (e)(ii) or
(f), if earlier. All unvested stock options and stock-based grants shall
immediately vest and become exercisable or nonforfeitable, and Employee shall
have such period of time to exercise the stock options as is provided in the
Stock Option Plan and agreements with Employee pursuant thereto. For a period of
eighteen (18) months following the Date of Termination and subject to the
Employee's continued copayment of premium amounts, the Employee, Employee's
spouse and dependents shall continue to participate in the Company's health
insurance plan upon the same terms and conditions in effect on the Date of
Termination, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the continuation of health benefits under
this Subparagraph shall reduce and count against Employee's rights under COBRA.
In addition to the foregoing, any payments
5
<Page>
to which Employee may be entitled under any employee benefit plan shall also be
paid in accordance with the terms of such plan or arrangement. Such payments, in
the aggregate, shall fully discharge the Company's obligations hereunder.
(d) TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY FOR CAUSE.
(i) The Company may terminate Employee's employment
hereunder for Cause. "CAUSE" shall mean: (A) gross negligence or willful
misconduct by Employee in connection with the performance of his material duties
hereunder; (B) a breach by Employee of any of his material duties hereunder (for
reasons other than physical or mental illness) and the failure of Employee to
cure such breach within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by the
Company; (C) conduct by Employee against the material best interests of the
Company or a material act of common law fraud against the Company or its
affiliates or employees; or (D) indictment of Employee of a felony and such
indictment has a material adverse affect on the interests or reputation of the
Company.
(ii) If Employee's employment is terminated by the Company
for Cause, then the Company shall, through the Date of Termination, pay Employee
his accrued and unpaid Base Salary. Thereafter, the Company shall have no
further obligations to Employee except as otherwise provided hereunder; PROVIDED
that any such termination shall not adversely affect or alter Employee's rights
under any employee benefit plan of the Company in which Employee, at the Date of
Termination, has a vested interest, unless otherwise provided in such employee
benefit plan or any agreement or other instrument attendant thereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and in addition to whatever other rights or
remedies the Company may have at law or in equity, all stock options and other
stock-based grants held by Employee, whether vested or unvested as of the Date
of Termination, shall immediately expire on the Date of Termination if
Employee's employment is terminated by the Company for Cause.
(e) TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY WITHOUT CAUSE OR BY EMPLOYEE FOR GOOD
REASON.
(i) The Company may terminate Employee's employment
hereunder without Cause if such termination is approved by the Chief Executive
Officer or Chairman of the Company. Any termination by the Company of Employee's
employment hereunder which does not (A) constitute a termination for Cause under
Subparagraph (d)(i), (B) result from the death or disability of the Employee
under Subparagraph (b) or (c), or (C) result from the expiration of the Term,
shall be deemed a termination without Cause.
(ii) Employee may terminate his employment hereunder for
Good Reason. "GOOD REASON" shall mean: (A) a substantial adverse change, not
consented to by Employee, in the nature or scope of Employee's responsibilities,
authorities, powers, functions, or duties under this Agreement; (B) a breach by
the Company of any of its material obligations hereunder and the failure of the
Company to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof
by Employee; or (C) the involuntary relocation of the Company's offices at which
Employee is principally employed to a location more than fifty (50) miles from
such offices, or the requirement by the Company that Employee be based anywhere
other than the Company's offices at such location on an extended basis, except
for required travel on the
6
<Page>
Company's business to an extent substantially consistent with Employee's
business travel obligations.
(iii) If Employee's employment is terminated by the Company
without Cause or if Employee terminates his employment for Good Reason in
accordance with this Subparagraph (e), then the Company shall, through the Date
of Termination, pay Employee his accrued and unpaid Base Salary and his accrued
and unpaid target bonus prorated for the number of days actually employed in the
then current calendar year. In addition, subject to signing by Employee of a
general release of claims in a form and manner satisfactory to the Company, the
Employee shall be entitled to the following:
(A) Salary continuation in an amount (the "SEVERANCE
AMOUNT") equal to the sum of (x) his annual Base Salary under Subparagraph 3(a)
and (y) the amount of his cash bonus, if any, received in respect of the
immediately preceding year under Subparagraph 3(b). The Severance Amount shall
be paid in equal monthly installments over a twelve (12) month period;
(B) All stock options and other stock-based awards,
granted to Employee after the Effective Date, in which Employee would have
vested if he had remained employed for a period of twelve (12) months commencing
on the Date of Termination, shall vest and become exercisable or nonforfeitable
as of the Date of Termination;
(C) Subject to the Employee's continued copayment of
premium amounts, continued participation for twelve (12) months in the Company's
health insurance plan upon the same terms and conditions in effect on the Date
of Termination, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the continuation of health benefits
under this Subparagraph shall reduce and count against Employee's rights under
COBRA; and
(D) Subject to (B) above, all rights and benefits
granted or in effect with respect to Employee under the Stock Option Plan and
agreements with Employee pursuant thereto.
(f) VOLUNTARY TERMINATION BY EMPLOYEE. Employee may terminate his
employment hereunder for any reason, including, but not limited to, Good Reason
in accordance with Subparagraph (e)(ii). If Employee's employment is terminated
by Employee other than for Good Reason, then the Company shall, through the Date
of Termination, pay Employee his accrued and unpaid Base Salary. Thereafter, the
Company shall have no further obligations to Employee except as otherwise
expressly provided hereunder; PROVIDED any such termination shall not adversely
affect or alter Employee's rights under any employee benefit plan of the Company
in which Employee, at the Date of Termination, has a vested interest, unless
otherwise provided in such employee benefit plan or any agreement or other
instrument attendant thereto. The vesting and exercise of any stock options and
the forfeitability of any stock-based grants held by Employee shall be governed
by the terms of the Stock Option Plan and the related agreements between
Employee and the Company
(g) NO MITIGATION. Without regard to the reason for the termination
of Employee's employment hereunder, Employee shall be under no obligation to
mitigate damages
7
<Page>
with respect to such termination under any circumstances and in the event
Employee is employed or receives income from any other source, there shall be no
offset against the amounts due from the Company hereunder.
9. NONCOMPETITION. Because Employee's services to the Company are special
and because Employee has access to the Company's confidential information,
Employee covenants and agrees that during the Employment Period and until the
end of a one-year period following the termination of Employee's employment with
the Company for any reason, Employee shall not, without the prior written
consent of the Company (which shall be authorized by approval of the Board of
Directors of the Company, including the approval of a majority of the
independent Directors of the Company), directly or indirectly:
(a) intentionally interfere with, disrupt or attempt to disrupt the
relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Company or its affiliates
and any supplier, contractor, lender, employee, or governmental agency or
authority; or
(b) call upon, compete for, solicit, divert, or take away, or
attempt to divert or take away any of the employees of the Company or its
affiliates, either for himself or for any other business, operation,
corporation, partnership, association, agency, or other person or entity.
Employee acknowledges that the foregoing restrictions are necessary to
protect the confidential information of the Company and its affiliates.
This Paragraph 9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the noncompetition
provision of this Paragraph 9 shall not apply if Employee's employment
terminates after a Change in Control (as defined in the Severance Plan).
10. CHANGE IN CONTROL PAYMENTS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the foregoing, in the event that the Employee's employment terminates after a
Change in Control (as defined in the Severance Plan) under circumstances that
would entitle him to payments and benefits under the Severance Plan, he shall
not be entitled to receive any payments or benefits under this Agreement.
11. CONFLICTING AGREEMENTS. Employee hereby represents and warrants that
the execution of this Agreement and the performance of his obligations hereunder
will not breach or be in conflict with any other agreement to which he is a
party or is bound, and that he is not now subject to any covenants against
competition or similar covenants which would affect the performance of his
obligations hereunder.
12. NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications
under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given (i) if
delivered by hand and receipted for by the party addressee, on the date of such
receipt or (ii) if mailed by domestic certified or registered mail with postage
prepaid, on the third business day after the date postmarked. Address for notice

13. INTEGRATION. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements between the parties with respect to any related subject matter,
provided, however, that the Severance Plan, as amended from time to time, shall
remain in full force and effect hereafter.
14. ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, ETC. Neither the Company nor the
Employee may make any assignment of this Agreement or any interest herein, by
operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other
party; provided that the Company may assign its rights under this Agreement
without the consent of the Employee in the event that the Company shall effect a
reorganization, consolidate with or merge into any other corporation,
partnership, organization or other entity, or transfer all or substantially all
of its properties or assets to any other corporation, partnership, organization
or other entity. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the Company and the Employee, their respective successors, executors,
administrators, heirs and permitted assigns.
15. MISCELLANEOUS. Headings herein are for convenience of reference only
and shall not define, limit or interpret the contents hereof.
16. AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented by
the mutual consent of the parties in writing, but no oral amendment,
modification or supplement shall be effective.
17. ARBITRATION; OTHER DISPUTES. Any dispute or controversy arising under
or in connection with this Agreement, including without limitation any claims
arising under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, shall be settled
exclusively by arbitration in accordance with the Employment Resolution Dispute
Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be
entered in any court having jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the above, the Company
shall be entitled to seek a restraining order or injunction in any court of
competent jurisdiction to prevent any continuation of any violation of Paragraph
7 or 9 hereof. This Paragraph 17 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.
18. LITIGATION AND REGULATORY COOPERATION. During and after Employee's
employment, Employee shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in the defense
or prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be brought
in the future against or on behalf of the Company which relate to events or
occurrences that transpired while Employee was employed by the Company; provided
that such cooperation shall not materially and adversely affect Employee or
expose Employee to an increased probability of civil or criminal litigation.
Employee's cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include,
without limitation, being available to meet with counsel to prepare for
discovery or trial and to act as a witness on behalf of the Company at mutually
convenient times. During and after Employee's employment, Employee also shall
cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any investigation or review
of any federal, state or local regulatory authority as any such investigation or
review relates to events or occurrences that transpired while Employee was
employed by the Company. The Company shall also provide Employee with
compensation on an hourly basis calculated at his final base compensation rate
for requested litigation and regulatory cooperation that occurs after his
termination of employment, and reimburse Employee
9
<Page>
for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with his performance under
this Paragraph 18, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs.
19. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement shall to any extent
be held void or unenforceable (as to duration, scope, activity, subject or
otherwise) by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed
to be modified so as to constitute a provision conforming as nearly as possible
to the original provision while still remaining valid and enforceable. In such
event, the remainder of this Agreement (or the application of such provision to
persons or circumstances other than those in respect of which it is deemed to be
void or unenforceable) shall not be affected thereby. Each other provision of
this Agreement, unless specifically conditioned on the voided aspect of such
provision, shall remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by
law; any other provisions of this Agreement that are specifically conditioned on
the voided aspect of such invalid provision shall also be deemed to be modified
so as to constitute a provision conforming as nearly as possible to the original
provision while still remaining valid and enforceable to the fullest extent
permitted by law.
20. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be construed and regulated in all
respects under the laws of the State of Delaware.
21. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be taken to be
an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same
document.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement is entered into as of the date and year
first above written.
