</TABLE>

12.      Estimate of initial Office Building Operating Expenses: To be provided

         1. LEASE GRANT. Landlord, in consideration of the Base Rent to be paid
and the other covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant and upon the
terms and conditions hereinafter stated, does hereby lease, demise and let unto
Tenant the Leased Premises commencing on the Commencement Date and ending on the
Termination Date, unless sooner terminated as herein provided.

         2. USE. The Leased Premises may be used only for general office
purposes. The name(s) of Tenant's business, if any, will be the name(s) set
forth in the Schedule above.

         3. RENTABLE AREA. The Rentable Area of the Office Building is deemed
for purposes of this Lease to be Eighty-five Thousand Five Hundred Sixty-one
square feet (85,561 sq. ft.). The Rentable Area of the Office Building may be
adjusted in the event of any destruction or condemnation as provided in
Paragraphs 31 or 32, as the case may be.

         4. BASE RENT AND ADDITIONAL RENT. Commencing on the Commencement Date
and continuing through the Initial Lease Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
"Base Rent" in the total amount set forth in the Schedule above, which amount
shall be payable in advance in equal monthly installments as set forth in the
Schedule above. Such Base Rent is equivalent to that amount per square foot per
year for the Rentable Area of the Office Building set forth in the Schedule
above. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord "Additional Rent" in an amount equal to
the Office Building Operating Expenses determined in accordance with EXHIBIT C
attached hereto, which amount shall be payable in advance each calendar month.
Base Rent and Additional Rent are collectively referred to herein as "Rent".

         5. DATE AND PLACE OF PAYMENT. Rent shall be due and payable in advance
on the first day of each calendar month (each, a "Due Date"), without notice or
demand, provided, however, that Rent in the amount of $122,740.56 due under this
Lease for the first (1st) month of the Lease Term shall be due and payable upon
execution of this Lease. Rent for any partial month shall be prorated. Rent and
all other sums payable by Tenant shall be due and payable at the address
designated by Landlord from time to time. Rent and all other sums payable by
Tenant are without right of set-off or deduction. Monies sent by wire transfer
are considered timely paid if the wire transfer order is communicated by Tenant
to Tenant's transmitting bank by 12:00 Noon on the Due Date. Upon Tenant's
request therefor, Landlord agrees to provide accurate wiring instructions to
Tenant, including account number, name of banking institution and ABA routing
number, to facilitate wire transfer payment of Rent or other sums. Monies mailed
are considered timely paid only if received by Landlord on or before the Due
Date or if



                                       2
<PAGE>   6


received later than the Due Date, in an envelope postmarked at least two (2)
days before the Due Date. All other sums payable by Tenant shall be payable as
otherwise provided herein (or upon delivery of written notice in accordance with
Paragraph 46). Any term or provision of this Lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, the covenant and obligation of Tenant to pay Rent hereunder
shall be independent from any obligations, warranties, representations, express
or implied, if any, of Landlord herein contained. Tenant's obligation to pay any
and all Rent under this Lease and Landlord's and Tenant's obligation to make any
adjustments referred to in this Lease shall survive any expiration or
termination of this Lease.

         6. LATE PAYMENT FEE. If any Rent installment or any other sum payable
by Tenant to Landlord is received by Landlord or Landlord's bank later than five
(5) days after its Due Date, Tenant shall pay a Late Payment Fee of five percent
(5%) of such Rent installment or other sum. Landlord's acceptance of a late Rent
payment or other sum shall not constitute permission for Tenant to pay Rent or
other sum late thereafter and shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord's
remedies for subsequent late payments of Rent or other sums. Late Payment Fees
are due immediately upon notice or demand. For each returned check, Tenant shall
pay all applicable bank charges incurred by Landlord plus Twenty-five Dollars
($25.00). Payments of any kind received by Landlord on behalf of Tenant may be
applied at Landlord's option to non-Rent items first, then to Rent. Payment of
Rent by Tenant is an independent covenant. If Tenant has not timely paid Rent or
other sums due on two or more occasions, or if a check from Tenant is returned
for insufficient funds or no account, Landlord may require that all Rent and
other sums payable by Tenant be paid by cashier's check, certified check, or
money order.

         7. SECURITY DEPOSIT. To secure performance of Tenant's obligations
under this Lease, at the time of execution of this Lease Tenant shall deposit
with Landlord in cash a Security Deposit in the amount set forth in the Schedule
above. If Tenant fails to pay Rent or other sums when payable under this Lease,
Landlord may elect to apply the Security Deposit toward amounts due and unpaid
by Tenant. Tenant shall immediately restore the Security Deposit to its original
amount after any portion of it is applied to amounts due and unpaid by Tenant.
Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has the right to transfer or mortgage
Landlord's interest in the Leased Premises and in this Lease and Tenant agrees
that in the event of any such transfer or mortgage, Landlord shall have the
right to transfer or assign the Security Deposit to the transferee or mortgagee,
provided the transferee or mortgagee agrees that the Security Deposit shall
continue to be held or used as provided in this Lease. The Security Deposit
shall not be mortgaged, assigned or encumbered in any manner whatsoever by
Tenant.

         8. COMMENCEMENT DATE AND TERM. The Initial Lease Term shall start on
the Commencement Date and shall continue for any partial first calendar month
plus the number of full calendar months thereafter set forth in the Schedule
above. Tenant's continued possession of Tenant's Leased Premises following
expiration or termination of this Lease shall be as a holdover tenant pursuant
to Paragraph 42. The Commencement Date of this Lease shall be that date which is
the earlier of (a) the "Completion Date" as such is determined in accordance
with EXHIBIT E attached hereto or (b) the date Tenant occupies the Leased
Premises for the purpose of conducting business. The Initial Lease Term together
with any renewal term or extension period is collectively referred to herein as
the "Term" or the "Lease Term".

         9. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF LEASE. Upon commencement of this Lease, Landlord

Paragraph 34) under this Lease, Tenant shall be entitled to peaceful and quiet
possession and enjoyment of the Leased Premises, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Lease. Construction noise or vibrations shall not be
considered a default by Landlord. To the extent construction is performed on the
Leased Premises by Landlord or an Affiliate (as such term is hereinafter
defined) of Landlord, then Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate
construction noise. An "Affiliate" of any person is an entity that "controls, is

means the entity directly or indirectly, through one or more subsidiaries, owns,
controls or has power to vote more than the majority of the outstanding voting

         15. INTERRUPTION OF SERVICES. Interruption or malfunction of utilities,
telephone service or similar services beyond the control of Landlord or as a
result of actions or failures by Tenant or the utility or other service
providers shall not render Landlord liable for any damages and shall not relieve
Tenant from paying Rent or performing any of Tenant's obligations under this

maintenance program of and for all major systems and components of the Leased
Premises including visually inspecting and servicing the HVAC units of the
Office Building on at least a monthly basis. Repairs and maintenance shall be in
accordance with applicable governmental requirements. Landlord shall have access
to and may temporarily close (defined as a period less than seventy-two hours)
any part of the Leased Premises if reasonably necessary for repairs with
reasonable notice to Tenant and subject to Tenant's reasonable security
requirements. Landlord may rekey or change the locks in all or any portion of
the Office Building at any time provided Tenant continues to have full access to
the Leased Premises without interruption. Tenant shall repair and pay for any
damage caused by the negligence of or Default hereunder by Tenant, its
employees, agents or invitees. If Tenant fails to complete such repairs after
request from Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to enter the Leased
Premises and make such repairs and the cost of any such repairs which is paid by
Landlord shall be deemed Additional Rent which is promptly due and owing from
Tenant after Tenant's receipt of an invoice from Landlord.

              (c) Emergency Repairs. In the event of a need for emergency
repairs, and such repairs are the obligation of the Landlord, as required in
this Paragraph 18, Tenant, in its sole discretion, may proceed to have such
repairs promptly made. Tenant shall use its best efforts to give Landlord
telephonic, email, facsimile or other notice as may be practical under the
circumstances prior to making such emergency repairs. By undertaking the
performance of Landlord's repair obligations pursuant to this Paragraph 18(c),
Tenant assumes no responsibility for the performance of future repairs which are
the obligation of Landlord. If Tenant causes such repair work to be done, Tenant
shall warrant that no mechanic's or materialman's lien shall be filed against
the Leased Premises or any part thereof.

              (d) Failure to Make Repairs. In the event Landlord shall fail to
perform any repairs required to be made by Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph
18, after Tenant has notified Landlord of such failure, Tenant may, but shall
not be required to, perform any such repairs at Tenant's expense; provided,
however, that if the cost of such repairs is the Landlord's obligation under
this Lease, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost of such
repairs within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice from Tenant.

diligent efforts to enforce the terms of any and all warranties or guaranties
obtained in connection with the construction of the Office Building or any
repairs made by Landlord under this Lease for the benefit of Tenant. However,
Landlord shall not incur any costs in connection with such enforcement efforts
unless Tenant agrees in writing to reimburse all actual costs incurred by
Landlord in connection therewith including without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses.

for janitorial services be re-bid upon written notice to Landlord. In addition,
after the expiration of the warranty periods applicable to the service contracts
for (a) HVAC maintenance, (b) elevator maintenance, and (c) landscaping
maintenance, Tenant may upon written notice to Landlord, require any of those
service contracts be re-bid. Upon any such request by Tenant, Landlord shall
obtain at least three (3) bids and shall award the contract to the lowest bidder
unless otherwise agreed to by Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall notify Tenant

security requirements.

              (b) Keys. Landlord shall furnish Tenant three hundred (300) access
cards for the main exterior doors of the Office Building. Additional or
replacement access cards shall be furnished by Landlord at Tenant's reasonable

reserves the right to rekey or change locks on all or any portion of the Office

              (d) Security. Landlord shall have no duty to provide any security
services of any kind unless expressly provided in this Lease. Landlord shall not
be liable to Tenant or Tenant's agents, employees, contractors, licensees,
invitees, visitors, or customers or any other party for injury, damage, or loss
to person or property caused by criminal conduct of other persons, including
theft, burglary, assault, vandalism or other crimes.

         22. PARKING. Tenant shall have the use of all existing parking spaces
located on the Leased Premises. Such existing parking spaces and any spaces
added pursuant to this Paragraph 22 shall be referred to as the "Parking Areas."
Tenant shall have sole control over parking and the Parking Areas subject to the
parking rules set forth in EXHIBIT F-1. If vehicles are parked in violation of
state statutes, Tenant may exercise vehicle removal remedies under V.T.C.A.
Transportation Code Section 684 or other applicable laws upon compliance with
statutory notice. In addition, Landlord agrees upon Tenant's request to
construct covering for up to an additional fifty (50) spaces. The cost of the
construction of such additional covered spaces shall be deducted from the
Allowance and/or the Additional Funding, as such terms are defined in EXHIBIT E
and EXHIBIT I.

         23. OCCUPANCY, NUISANCE, AND HAZARDS. The Leased Premises shall be
occupied only by Tenant or Tenant's employees and affiliates, including
employees, contractors and invitees of Tenant or of Tenant's subsidiaries and
affiliates. Tenant and Tenant's agents, employees, licensees, invitees,
visitors, and contractors shall comply with all federal, state, and local laws
relating to occupancy or to criminal conduct while such persons are on the
Leased Premises. Tenant and the persons listed above shall not (1) use, occupy,
or permit the use or occupancy of the Leased Premises for any purpose which is
directly or indirectly forbidden by such laws or which may be dangerous to life
or property, (2) permit any public or private nuisance, (3) do anything which
might emit offensive odors or fumes, (4) make undue noise or cause excessive
vibrations, (5) permit anything which would cancel insurance coverage or
increase the insurance rate on the Leased Premises or the contents thereof, or
(6) otherwise damage the Leased Premises.

         24. TAXES.

              (a) Tenant shall be responsible for payment of all Taxes (as such
term is defined in Paragraph B(3) of EXHIBIT C hereto against the Leased
Premises and shall deliver to Landlord copies of the paid tax receipts not later
than the annual due date of such Taxes. Tenant agrees to pay to the taxing
authorities all taxes and assessments before the annual due date thereof and, at
Tenant's option, to pay early (at the discount offered by the taxing authorities
for early payment by October 31 of each year) the taxes to those taxing entities
which provide an early payment discount. Provided Tenant pays the Taxes before
their due date, Taxes shall not be a component of the Office Building Operating
Expenses paid monthly to Landlord. If Tenant fails to pay the Taxes before their
due date, Landlord shall have the right to pay the Taxes and the amount of Taxes
paid by Landlord shall be deemed Additional Rent which is immediately due and
owing from Tenant.

              (b) Landlord shall notify Tenant of the appraised value of the
Land and Office Building proposed or determined for ad valorem real property tax
purposes by Bexar Appraisal District ("BAD") promptly following receipt of any
proposed or final determination of value. Provided that Tenant is not in Default
hereunder, Tenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to protest at
its cost any appraised value proposed from time to time by BAD, and to appeal
any determination by BAD. However, such right is contingent upon Tenant
tendering the full amount of the Taxes due to the



                                       8
<PAGE>   12


applicable taxing authority no later than the January 31 due date (or earlier
due date if the due date is earlier than January 31). In addition, Tenant shall
indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims or
liability resulting from any such protest. Landlord agrees to cooperate with
Tenant in any protest or appeal. Landlord agrees to appoint Tenant, and any
representative of Tenant specified by Tenant, as Landlord's representative for
purposes of contesting and prosecuting any protest or appeal.

              (c) Tenant shall timely pay all taxes assessed against Tenant's
furniture, equipment, fixtures, or other personal property in the Leased
Premises.

              (d) Taxes for the calendar years in which this Lease commences and
terminates shall be prorated as of the Commencement Date and the Termination
Date. Tenant's obligation to pay its proportionate share of the Taxes for the
year in which the Termination Date occurs shall survive the termination of this
Lease. Tenant shall not be obligated for payment of any Taxes for periods prior
to the Commencement Date or after the Termination Date.

         25. INSURANCE. Landlord and Tenant shall comply with the respective
insurance obligations as set forth below:

              (a) Landlord's Insurance. Landlord shall maintain (1) fire and
extended coverage insurance, including vandalism and malicious mischief, on the
Office Building equal to the full insurable replacement cost of the Office
Building, and (2) comprehensive general liability insurance covering the Leased
Premises against all claims of bodily or personal injury to or death of any
person or persons or property damage, with limits of not less than Two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000.00) for each injury or death to a person and Two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000.00) for each incident involving personal injury or death of
person, and, in the case of property damage, not less than One Million Dollars
($1,000,000.00) for any one occurrence, subject, in each case, to Tenant's
obligation to pay Landlord for such insurance coverage as Additional Rent
pursuant to Paragraph 50. Any additional insurance coverage shall be as Landlord
may reasonably deem appropriate provided that all insurance coverage obtained by
Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph 25(a) shall be obtained on a commercially
reasonable basis. Landlord shall not maintain fire and extended coverage
insurance on any of Tenant's property contained in the Leased Premises, and the
same shall be Tenant's sole responsibility. Tenant shall be named as an
additional insured on Landlord's policies. Landlord also agrees to require any
property manager of the Leased Premises to carry errors and omissions insurance
in an amount not less then $250,000.00.

              (b) Tenant's Insurance. Tenant shall carry insurance from the
first day of Tenant's occupancy and throughout the Term of this Lease insuring
Tenant and Landlord as their interests may appear with terms and coverages and
by companies satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant. Initially Tenant shall
maintain the following coverages and amounts:

                  (i) comprehensive general liability insurance against all
claims of bodily or personal injury to or death of any person or persons or
property damage, with limits of not less than Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000.00) for each injury or death to a person and Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000.00) for each incident involving personal injury or death of person,
and, in the case of property damage, not less than One Million Dollars
($1,000,000.00) for any one occurrence; and



                                       9
<PAGE>   13


                  (ii) fire and extended coverage insuring against all claims of
fire, sprinkler leakage, malicious mischief, vandalism, and other extended
coverage perils, for the full insurable replacement value of all additions,
improvements and alterations to the Leased Premises which are beyond the
standard office building finish-out initially provided by Landlord, and all
office furniture, trade fixtures, office equipment, merchandise, and all other
items of Tenant's property on the Leased Premises.

              (c) Mutual Waiver of Subrogation. Tenant and Landlord shall cause
their respective fire/casualty and liability insurance policies to provide
waivers for all right of recovery by way of subrogation in connection with any
loss or damage covered by such insurance policies. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if such waiver of subrogation is not incorporated into the policies
and cannot be procured or if it can be procured only with an additional premium
charge, Tenant and Landlord shall furnish to each other written evidence from
the insurance company or insurance agent, verifying that such waiver is (1) not
obtainable or (2) not obtainable without extra charge. Thereafter, within a
reasonable time after receiving such notice, Landlord or Tenant may (1) accept
the policy without the waiver of subrogation, (2) agree to pay any additional
charge necessary to obtain the waiver of subrogation or (3) place the insurance
with a company which is reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, Tenant, and
Landlord's mortgagee with a policy of the same terms and coverage, the extra
cost, if any, of which will be entirely borne by the party who required the
insurance to be placed with another company.

              (d) Insurance Certificates. Prior to the date Tenant initially
occupies the Leased Premises or any portion thereof, Tenant shall provide
Landlord with a certificate of Tenant's insurance required by this Lease, in
form and substance acceptable to Landlord. Landlord and Landlord's managing
agent (if any) shall be named as additional insureds on Tenant's liability
insurance policy. Within sixty (60) days of Tenant's occupancy of the Leased
Premises and thereafter upon written request by Landlord, changes in the name of
Landlord or Landlord's managing agent (if any) shall be reflected on such
certificate. Within sixty (60) days of Tenant's occupancy of the Leased Premises
and thereafter upon written request, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord copies of
the policies of insurance referred to in this Lease, including any waivers of
subrogation, or satisfactory evidence of same. Upon Tenant's written request
therefor, insurance certificates for Landlord's insurance will be provided to
Tenant.

              (e) Notice from Insurance Carriers. All policies of insurance to
be provided by Tenant or Landlord shall contain a provision (to the extent
legally permitted) that the insurance company shall give Landlord or Tenant as
the case may be, at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice in advance of
(1) any cancellation or non-renewal of the policy, (2) any reduction in the
policy amount, and (3) any deletion of additional insureds.

         26. MUTUAL RELEASES. Landlord and Tenant release each other and their
respective officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims for loss
or damage to any person or property on the Leased Premises which is caused by or
which results from risks insured against under insurance policies carried by
Landlord or Tenant and in force at the time of any such loss or damage. The
foregoing release shall not apply to property losses or damages in excess of
policy limits or to losses or damages not covered by insurance due to a
deductible clause in the policy. Landlord and Tenant make no representations
that the types or amounts of insurance coverage to be carried by the parties
pursuant to Paragraph 25 above are adequate to protect the parties' respective
interests. If either party believes that any of the insurance coverage is
inadequate, then such party may obtain such additional insurance



                                       10
<PAGE>   14


coverage as it deems adequate, at its sole expense. Furthermore, in no way does
the insurance required herein limit the liability of either party assumed
elsewhere in this Lease.

         27. HOLD HARMLESS.

                  (a) Waiver of Claims. Except to the extent caused by the
negligent acts or omissions of Landlord, its employees, duly authorized agents,
licensees, contractors, servants, or invitees, Tenant hereby waives any and all
claims against Landlord for any death of or injury to any person or damage to
property: (i) due to any condition, design or defect in the Leased Premises or
any related mechanical systems and equipment, any defect in or failure of pipes
or wiring, the backing up of drains, the bursting or leaking of pipes, faucets,
and plumbing fixtures; or the leaking or escape of gas, water, steam,
electricity or oil; (ii) caused by other persons; or (iii) caused by
construction or other work on, about or adjoining the Leased Premises. Tenant
for itself and its agents, employees, licensees, servants, and invitees,
expressly agrees to look solely to the proceeds of Landlord's insurance to
satisfy any recovery with respect to death or injury to person or damage to
property resulting from the condition of the Leased Premises or the negligent
acts or omissions of Landlord, its employees, duly authorized agents, licensees,
contractors, servants or invitees, but liability or recovery for Landlord's
gross negligence or willful misconduct is not so limited.

                  (b) Indemnity. Tenant hereby defends and indemnifies Landlord
and holds Landlord harmless from any damage to any property, or injury TO or
death of any person arising from any event, regardless of cause, including,
without limitation, the negligence of Landlord, its employees, duly authorized
agents, licensees, contractors, servants or invitees (except as hereinafter
provided), which occurs ON THE LEASED PREMISES) including without limitation,
reasonable attorneys fees, investigation costs, and all other reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by Landlord following the first notice that any claim or
demand has been made or may be made against Landlord unless such damage or
injury results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its
employees, duly authorized agents, licensees, contractors, servants, or invitees
and then only to the extent not collectIble by insurance carried BY Tenant AND
LANDLORD.

                  (c) Landlord's Costs and Expenses. If Landlord is made a party
to any litigation commenced by or against Tenant or relating to this Lease or
Tenant's use of the Leased Premises, and in any such litigation Landlord is
adjudicated not to have any legal responsibility by reason of Landlord's gross
negligence or willful misconduct, then Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses,
incurred by or imposed against Landlord because of any such litigation and the
amount of such costs and expenses shall be a demand obligation owed by Tenant to
Landlord. Further, if in any such case, Landlord's gross negligence is
adjudicated only to have been comparative, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord of
all such costs and expenses reduced only by the percentage of Landlord's
comparative gross negligence. Tenant, subject to the right of its insurer(s),
shall have the right to assume and control the defense of any claims against
Landlord brought by third parties against Landlord for which Tenant has
indemnified Landlord under Paragraph 27(b). Upon such assumption of defense, the
cost of defense shall be borne by Tenant or its insurer(s). Tenant, subject to
the rights of any insurer(s), shall determine and control settlement or other
disposition of any claims against which Tenant has indemnified Landlord under
Paragraph 27(b).



                                       11
<PAGE>   15


              (d) Indirect Damages. In no event shall Landlord be liable to
Tenant for incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including
without limitation, lost business profits. Landlord's liability to Tenant for
any default by Landlord under this Lease or for any other claim arising out of
Tenant's occupancy, possession or use of the Leased Premises shall be limited to
Landlord's interest in the Leased Premises, and Tenant agrees to look solely to
Landlord's interest in the Leased Premises for the recovery of any judgment from
Landlord, it being agreed by Tenant that neither Landlord nor any shareholder,
officer, director or partner of Landlord shall be personally liable for any such
liability, judgment or deficiency.

              (e) Survival. This Paragraph 27 shall survive any expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease for a period not to exceed two (2) years
during which time any and all claims hereunder must be asserted.

         28. ALTERATIONS BY TENANT. Tenant may not make any alterations,
improvements, door lock changes, or other modifications of any kind to the
Leased Premises without Landlord's written consent, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld except for any alterations that affect the structure of
the Office Building or the building systems which shall be subject to Landlord's
prior written consent, which consent may be withheld by Landlord in Landlord's
sole discretion. "Alterations" include but are not limited to improvements
glued, screwed, nailed, or otherwise permanently attached to the Leased
Premises, structural changes, roof and wall penetrations, and all plumbing,
electrical, and HVAC changes. Requests for Landlord's approval shall be in
writing and shall be detailed to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction. At Tenant's
election all Alterations may be done by Landlord's contractors or by third
parties approved by Landlord in writing. Tenant shall promptly pay the cost of
any Alterations and Tenant shall not allow liens to be placed against the Leased
Premises. Alterations done at Tenant's request shall comply with all applicable
laws. Changes in Tenant's alterations or improvements which may be later
required by governmental action shall also be paid for by Tenant. Tenant shall
be required to provide Landlord with a set of as-built plans and specifications
for the Leased Premises depicting any Alterations made to the Leased Premises no
later than ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Lease Term.

         29. REMOVAL OF PROPERTY BY TENANT. Tenant may remove its records and
files, including those pertaining to pharmaceutical and clinical trial data
sponsored or held by Tenant or any of its subsidiaries or sponsors at any time
and from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Tenant may remove its
trade fixtures, furniture, and equipment only if (1) such removal is made prior
to the end of the Lease Term, (2) Tenant is not in Default under this Lease at
time of removal, and (3) such removal is not in anticipation of an early
move-out prior to the end of the Lease Term. Tenant shall pay all costs of
removal. Tenant shall have no rights to property remaining on the Leased
Premises after move-out and all such property shall be conclusively presumed to
have been abandoned by Tenant and title to such property shall pass to Landlord
under this Lease as in a bill of sale. Tenant may not remove any Alterations (as
defined in Paragraph 28) or improvements such as wall-to-wall carpeting, book
shelves, window coverings, drapes, cabinets, paneling, counters, kitchen or
break room built-ins, shelving, wall covering, and anything else attached to the
floor, walls, or ceilings. If Landlord requests in writing, Tenant shall,
immediately prior to moving out, remove any Alterations, fixtures, equipment,
and other property installed by Tenant. Tenant shall pay for cleaning or
repairing damage caused by Tenant's removal of any property.



                                       12
<PAGE>   16


         30. SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT. Tenant may sublet, or grant licenses or
other rights of occupancy of, any portion of the Leased Premises to any one or
more Affiliates (as such term is hereinafter defined) of Tenant, and any one or
more joint venturer, partner, or pharmaceutical researcher or industry
participant, without the prior consent of Landlord. An "Affiliate" of any person
is an entity that "controls," "is controlled by" or is "under common control
with" such person, where "control" means the entity directly or indirectly,
through one or more subsidiaries, owns, controls or has power to vote fifty
percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting securities or ownership interest
of the person, controls the election of a majority of the directors of such
person, or directly or indirectly exercises a controlling influence over the
management or policies of such person. Except as permitted in the preceding
sentence, Tenant may not sublet, assign, pledge, or mortgage this Lease and may
not grant licenses, commissions, or other rights of occupancy to all or any part
of the Leased Premises without Landlord's prior written approval, such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Landlord gives such approval,
Landlord shall be entitled to the excess between (1) the Rent payable by Tenant
under this Lease and (2) all consideration paid (including all items of rent)
directly or indirectly to Tenant or Tenant's agents by the assignee or subtenant
(the "Excess Amount") less all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
Tenant in connection with the subletting or assignment, including tenant
improvements, leasing commissions and rental incentives, which expenses may be
deducted by Tenant from the Excess Amount to be paid to Landlord. The foregoing
is in consideration of additional management performed or to be performed by
Landlord under such sublease or assignment. In addition, Landlord shall be
reimbursed by Tenant for the reasonable, documented legal and administrative
costs incurred by Landlord in connection with any proposed subletting or
assignment. Violation of this Lease by a subtenant or assignee shall be deemed a
violation by Tenant. Approval by Landlord of any sublease or assignment shall
not release Tenant from any obligation under this Lease and shall not constitute
approval for subsequent subletting or assignment. Subtenants or assignees shall
be liable for all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease unless otherwise
specified in writing. Upon Default by Tenant, any subtenant shall pay all
sublease rentals and other sums due Landlord, directly to Landlord, to be
credited against sums owed to Landlord by Tenant under this Lease. Unless
otherwise agreed in writing, no sublease or assignment shall be valid unless (1)
a copy of this Lease is attached thereto, (2) the subtenant or assignee agrees
in writing to be liable for all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, and
(3) Landlord's written approval is attached to the sublease or assignment.

         31. DESTRUCTION BY FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY.

              (a) Total Destruction, Rent Abatement, and Restoration. If the
Office Building is totally destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty so
that it cannot reasonably be used by Tenant and if this Lease is not terminated
as provided in Subparagraph 31(d) below, there shall be a total abatement of
Tenant's Rent and Tenant's obligation to pay the Office Building Operating
Expenses until the Office Building is restored by Landlord.

              (b) Partial Destruction, Rent Abatement, and Restoration. If the
Office Building is partially destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty so
that it can only be partially used by Tenant and if this Lease is not terminated
as provided in Subparagraph 31(d) below, there shall be a partial abatement of
Tenant's Rent and Tenant's obligation to pay the Office Building Operating
Expenses which fairly and reasonably corresponds to the time and extent to which
the Office Building cannot reasonably be used by Tenant. The abatement shall be
calculated as a ratio or fraction based on the total square footage destroyed or
damaged as the numerator and the total square footage of the Office Building as
the denominator. The resulting fraction, as calculated, then will be multiplied
by the Rent



                                       13
<PAGE>   17


and the Operating Expenses to determine the amount of abatement and reduction.
For example, if the resulting fraction is 20%, Rent and Operating Expenses would
be abated and reduced by 20% per month.

              (c) Restoration. Landlord's obligation to restore the Office
Building shall be limited to: (i) the amount of any insurance proceeds received
by Landlord; (ii) the requirements of Landlord's mortgage; and (iii) the
condition of the Office Building as constructed by Landlord or as otherwise
delivered to Tenant by Landlord on the Commencement Date. Subject to the receipt
of such insurance proceeds and the requirements of Landlord's mortgagees,
Landlord shall proceed with diligence to restore the Office Building. During
restoration, Tenant shall continue business to the extent practical in Tenant's
reasonable judgment.

              (d) Lease Termination. If the Office Building is so substantially
damaged that restoration and repairs cannot be completed in Landlord's
reasonable determination within one hundred eighty (180) days after the fire or
casualty, then this Lease may be terminated by Landlord. Within sixty (60) days
after the occurrence of any such damage Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing
of Landlord's election to either (1) terminate this Lease, which termination
shall be effective as of the date the damage occurred or (2) restore the Office
Building together with Landlord's reasonable estimate of the length of time
needed to perform such restoration. In the event that Landlord's estimate of the
time needed to restore is greater than two hundred forty (240) days after the
date of the damage, then this Lease may be terminated as of the date of the
damage by Tenant by serving written notice upon Landlord within ten (10) days
after Landlord has so notified Tenant.

         32. CONDEMNATION. If any part of the Office Building is taken by
condemnation or by deed in lieu of condemnation by any governmental authority,
this Lease shall terminate one day prior to such taking. If any part of the
Parking Areas is taken by condemnation or by deed in lieu of condemnation by any
governmental authority, then Landlord shall make commercially reasonable efforts
to substitute equivalent parking on or near the Leased Premises. If Landlord is
unable to provide substitute parking within ninety (90) days of such taking and
if one or more such takings in total deprive Tenant of the use of more than ten
percent (10%) of the total parking spaces then Tenant shall have the right to
terminate this Lease at any time within twelve (12) months after such
deprivation becomes effective by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice to
Landlord. No abatement or reduction in Base Rent or Additional Rent shall result
from any taking of the Parking Areas. Landlord shall pay, without reimbursement
by, or charge to, Tenant, all costs associated with construction reasonably
necessary to render the Leased Premises usable for Tenant's permitted purposes
after such partial taking. All compensation awarded for any partial or total
taking of the Leased Premises shall be the property of Landlord. If Landlord has
received written notice of intent to condemn, Tenant shall upon ten (10) days
written request by Landlord execute an acknowledgment that the Term of this
Lease terminates one day prior to the condemnation or deed in lieu of
condemnation and that Tenant claims no interest in the condemnation award.
Landlord shall have no interest in any monies paid by the condemning authorities
to Tenant for moving costs or for the other personal property within the Leased
Premises (excluding leasehold improvements) if a separate award for such items
is made to Tenant.

         33. DEFAULT BY LANDLORD. If Landlord fails to commence performance of
any of its obligations hereunder within ten (10) days following written notice
from Tenant specifying such failure, and thereafter fails to diligently
prosecute the curing of such failure until completion, then Tenant may pursue
its remedies under this Lease, including an action for damages.

         34. DEFAULT BY TENANT.

              (a) Definition of Default. Tenant shall be in Default under this
Lease upon the occurrence of any of the following (each a "Default"): (1)
failure to pay Rent or any other sum payable by Tenant under this Lease within
five (5) days after Landlord's written notice to Tenant of any such failure to
pay; (2) failure to vacate on or before the last day of the Term of this Lease;
(3) failure to pay Rent in advance on a daily basis in the event of holdover by
Tenant; (4) acquisition of Tenant's interest in this Lease by a third party by
judicial or non-judicial process of any kind; or (5) failure to comply with any
other provision of this Lease including the Office Building Rules set forth in
EXHIBIT F-2 attached hereto within seven (7) days after notice of Default from
Landlord; provided however, that Tenant shall not be in Default under subclause
(5) above if Tenant promptly commences to cure such failure to comply within
seven (7) days after receipt of written notice of such Default and complete said
cure within such additional period as may be required to complete curing of the
Default provided Tenant diligently prosecutes the curing of such Default until
completion.

              (b) Landlord Remedies. If Tenant is in Default under this Lease,
Landlord shall have any or all remedies set forth below provided that Landlord
expressly disclaims any remedies with respect to all records, files, computer
data and other property within the Leased Premises relating to Food and Drug
Administration investigational new drug applications, new drug applications,
biologic license applications, marketing applications, and research and clinical
trials for any products, including products of third party sponsors.

                  (i) Door Locks. Landlord shall be entitled to change or modify
door locks on all entry doors of the Office Building until Tenant has cured such
Default; provided, however, Landlord shall immediately thereafter post a notice
on the primary entry door to the Office Building, stating that Landlord has
exercised such lockout rights. No other notice requirements or lockout laws
shall apply including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 93.002 of
the Texas Property Code. Landlord's right to modify or change locks shall occur
automatically and without notice if Tenant's possession is terminated. If Tenant
moves out of or abandons the Leased Premises for ten (10) consecutive days,
Landlord may permanently change the locks without notice to Tenant, and Tenant
shall not be entitled to a key or to reentry.

                  (ii) Utilities and Services. Landlord shall be entitled to
terminate any and all utilities or services furnished by Landlord without
notice. Landlord's right to terminate such utilities or services shall occur
automatically and without notice.

                  (iii) Acceleration After Notice of Rental Delinquency. All
Rent for the remainder of the Lease Term shall be accelerated, due, and
delinquent without further demand or notice. Such acceleration rights are in
consideration of the Rent for the entire Lease Term being payable in monthly
installments rather than in one lump sum at the beginning of the Lease Term. If
Tenant has already vacated the Leased Premises, notice of acceleration may be
delivered to Tenant pursuant to Paragraph 46. Liability for Additional Rent
accruing in the future (over and above any Base Rent) shall not be waived by
such acceleration.

                  (iv) Termination of Possession. If Tenant is in Default,
Landlord may (with or without demand for performance) terminate Tenant's right
of possession by giving to Tenant one day's written notice; and Landlord shall
be entitled to immediate possession of the Leased Premises



                                       15
<PAGE>   19


without termination of Tenant's obligations under this Lease. Landlord's
repossession shall not be considered an election to terminate this Lease unless
written notice of such intention to terminate is given to Tenant by Landlord.
Repossession may be by voluntary agreement or by eviction lawsuit. Commencement
of an eviction lawsuit shall not preclude other remedies under this Lease or
other laws.

                  (v) Reletting Costs. If Tenant is in Default and if Landlord
terminates Tenant's right of possession without terminating this Lease, Tenant
shall pay upon Landlord's demand the following: (1) all costs of reletting
(which in no event shall be less than one month's Rent), including leasing
commissions, rent concessions (whether in the form of assuming or buying out
lease remainders elsewhere, free rent for a period of time, or reduced rental
rates), utilities during the vacancy, advertising costs, administrative
overhead, and all costs of repair, remodeling, or redecorating for replacement
tenants in the Leased Premises, (2) all Rent and other sums due from Tenant to
Landlord through the date of termination of Tenant's right of possession, and
(3) all Rent and other sums required to be paid by Tenant during the remainder
of the entire Lease Term, subject to the acceleration Paragraph 34(b)(iii)
above.

                  (vi) Termination of Lease. Landlord may terminate this Lease
(as contrasted to termination of possession rights only) upon Default by Tenant
or at any time after Landlord's lawful re-entry or repossession following
Default by Tenant. Landlord's agents have authority to terminate the Lease only
by written notice given pursuant to Subparagraph 34(b)(iv).

                  (vii) Re-Entry, Waiver and Damages. No re-entry or taking
possession of the Leased Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election
on its part to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of such intention
is given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any such reletting or re-entry or taking
possession, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease
for a previous Default. Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not
preclude pursuit of any of the other remedies herein provided or any other
remedies provided by law, nor shall pursuit of any remedy herein provided
constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any Rent due to Landlord hereunder or of
any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms,
provisions and covenants herein contained. Landlord's acceptance of Rent
following a Default hereunder shall not be construed as Landlord's waiver of
such Default. No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the
terms, provisions and covenants herein contained shall be deemed or construed to
constitute a waiver of any other violation or Default. The loss or damage that
Landlord may suffer by reason of termination of this Lease or the deficiency
from any reletting as provided for above shall include the expense of
repossession and any repairs or remodeling undertaken by Landlord following
repossession. Should Landlord at any time terminate this Lease for any Default,
in addition to any other remedy Landlord may have, Landlord may recover from
Tenant all damages Landlord may incur by reason of such Default, including the
cost of recovering the Leased Premises and the loss of Rent for the remainder of
the Lease Term.

                  (viii) Right to Draw On Letter of Credit. Landlord shall have
the right to draw upon the Letter of Credit pursuant to EXHIBIT I hereto.

         35. LIEN FOR RENT. Landlord waives and disclaims any contractual lien
and waives and disclaims its Landlord's statutory lien under Section 54.021 of
the Texas Property Code.



                                       16
<PAGE>   20


         36. ATTORNEY'S FEES, INTEREST, AND OTHER EXPENSES. If Tenant or
Landlord is in Default and if the nondefaulting party places this Lease in the
hands of an attorney in order to enforce lease rights or remedies, the
nondefaulting party may recover reasonable attorney's fees from the defaulting
party even if suit has not been filed. In any lawsuit enforcing lease rights,
the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees
from the nonprevailing party, plus all out of pocket expenses. All delinquent
sums payable by Tenant to Landlord shall bear interest at the maximum lawful
rate of interest, compounded annually, from date of Default until paid, plus any
Late Payment Fees. Late Payment Fees as set forth in Paragraph 6 shall be
considered reasonable liquidated damages for the time, trouble, inconvenience,
and administrative overhead expense incurred by Landlord in collecting late
Rent, such elements of damages being uncertain and difficult to ascertain. Late
Payment Fees shall not be liquidated damages for attorney's fees or for
Landlord's loss of use of such funds during the time of delinquency.

         37. NONWAIVER. The acceptance of monies past due or the failure to
complain of any action, nonaction, delayed payment, or Default, whether singular
or repetitive, shall not constitute a waiver of rights or obligations under the
Lease. Landlord's or Tenant's waiver of any right or any Default shall not
constitute waiver of other rights, violations, defaults, or subsequent rights,
violations, or Defaults under this Lease. No act or omission by Landlord or
Landlord's agents shall be deemed an acceptance of surrender by Tenant of the
Leased Premises, and no agreement by Landlord to accept a surrender of the
Leased Premises shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by a duly
authorized agent of Landlord.

         38. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND RULES OF OFFICE BUILDING. Tenant shall
comply with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations (state, federal,
municipal and other agencies or bodies having any jurisdiction hereof) relating
to the use, condition or occupancy of the Leased Premises. After the
Commencement Date and at all times during the Term of this Lease, Tenant agrees
to comply with any and all requirements of the Americans With Disabilities Act
of 1990 (the "ADA") relating to the use, condition or occupancy of the Leased
Premises. Tenant will comply with the rules of the Office Building adopted by
Landlord which are set forth in EXHIBIT F-2 attached hereto and the separate
parking rules are contained in EXHIBIT F-1 attached hereto. Landlord shall have
the right, if necessary, to change such rules and regulations or amend them in
any reasonable manner and for preservation of good order therein, all of which
changes and amendments will be sent by Landlord to Tenant in writing and shall
be thereafter carried out and observed by Tenant. Tenant shall further be
responsible for the compliance with such rules and regulations by its employees,
servants, authorized agents, visitors and invitees.

         39. TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP BY LANDLORD. If Landlord transfers ownership
of the Leased Premises (other than as security for a mortgage) and if Landlord
has delivered to the transferee all of Tenant's Security Deposit and any prepaid
Rent, Landlord shall be released from all liability under the Lease, excluding
any liability for prior defaults or breaches of the Lease, unless the transferee
expressly assumes such liabilities; and such transferee shall become liable as
Landlord. Such right to be released of liability, excluding any liability for
prior defaults or breaches of the Lease, unless the transferee expressly assumes
such liabilities, shall accrue to subsequent owners only if such transfer is in
good faith and for consideration.

<PAGE>   21


         40. GROUND LEASES; MORTGAGES.

              (a) Subordination of Lease. Tenant agrees to subordinate this
Lease to all present and future ground and underlying leases of the Leased
Premises and to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust, now or hereafter
enforced against the Leased Premises, and to all renewals, extensions,
modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made
or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or deeds of trust,
provided, however, and so long as Tenant is not in Default under this Lease, (1)
this Lease shall remain in full force and effect at the time of subordination
and at all times thereafter; (2) Tenant's tenancy will not be disturbed, nor
will this Lease be affected, by any default under any ground lease or mortgage;
and (3) the rights of Tenant hereunder shall expressly survive and shall not be
cut off by any default or foreclosure under any ground lease or mortgage.

              (b) Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment. Within five (5)
business days after the execution of this Lease, Landlord shall deliver to
Tenant for Tenant's execution, and Tenant and Landlord agree to execute, a
subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in substantially the
form attached hereto as EXHIBIT J executed by Landlord and the holder of the
existing deed of trust on the Leased Premises.

              (c) Notices. Any notices required or permitted to be given to
Landlord under this Lease shall also be given to any ground lessor or mortgagee
whose name and address Landlord has provided to Tenant in writing. Such ground
lessor or mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure any
default by Landlord within the same time period as may be granted to Landlord
under any provision of this Lease.

              (d) Existing Matters. This Lease is further subject and
subordinate to all applicable ordinances of the City of San Antonio, all
recorded easements or other matters of record upon, across or pertinent to the
Leased Premises and all utility easements and agreements.

              (e) Subordination of Ground Lease or Mortgage. Notwithstanding the
generality of the foregoing provisions of Subparagraph 40(a) above, any such
mortgagee or ground or primary lessor shall have the right at any time to
subordinate any such ground or primary leases or such deeds of trust, mortgages
or other security instruments to this Lease on such terms and subject to such
conditions as such ground or primary lessor or such mortgagee may consider
appropriate in its discretion. At any time, before or after the institution of
any proceedings for the foreclosure of any such deed of trust, mortgages or any
other security instruments or sale of the Leased Premises under any such deeds
of trust, mortgages, or other security instruments, or termination of any ground
or primary lease, Tenant shall attorn to such ground or primary lessor or such
purchaser upon any sale or the grantee under a deed in lieu of foreclosure and
shall recognize any such ground or primary lessor, purchaser or grantee as
Landlord under this Lease. The agreement of Tenant to attorn contained in the
immediately preceding sentence shall survive any such termination of ground or
primary lease, foreclosure sale, trustee sale or conveyance in lieu thereof.
Tenant shall, upon demand at any time, before or after such termination of
ground or primary lease, foreclosure sale, trustee sale or conveyance in lieu
thereof, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord's mortgagee or the ground
or primary lessor as, the case may be, any written instruments or certificates
evidencing such attornment as Landlord's mortgagee or ground or primary lessor
may be reasonably require. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Tenant is
not in Default under this Lease (1) this Lease shall remain in full force and
effect at the time of subordination and at all times thereafter; (2) Tenant's
tenancy will not be disturbed, nor will this Lease be affected, by



                                       18
<PAGE>   22


any default under any ground lease or mortgage; and (3) the rights of Tenant
hereunder shall expressly survive and shall not be cut off by any default or
foreclosure under any ground lease or mortgage.

         41. SURRENDER OF PREMISES. When Tenant moves out, Tenant shall
surrender the Leased Premises in the same condition as such existed on the
Commencement Date (as changed or improved from time to time in accordance with
this Lease), less ordinary wear and shall return all keys and/or access cards.
Removal of property from the Leased Premises is subject to Paragraph 29 above.

         42. HOLDING OVER. If Tenant remains in possession of the Leased
Premises after the expiration of the Lease Term or the Termination Date of this
Lease, without the execution by Landlord and Tenant of a new lease or a renewal
or extension of this Lease, then (a) Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the
Leased Premises as a tenant-at-sufferance on a daily basis, subject to all
obligations of the Lease, (b) Tenant shall pay Rent daily for the entire
holdover period at a daily rate equal to 200% of the last monthly payment of
Base Rent plus Additional Rent divided by thirty (30), (c) Tenant shall be
subject to all other remedies of Landlord as provided in Paragraph 34, (d)
Tenant shall indemnify Landlord for damages, including lost rentals, storage
expenses, and attorney's fees, and (e) at Landlord's sole option, Landlord may
extend the Lease Term for a period of one month at the then current rental rates
for the Office Building, as reasonably determined by Landlord, by delivering
written notice to Tenant while Tenant is holding over. Holdover Rent shall be
immediately due on a daily basis and delinquent without notice or demand; and
the prior written notice and waiting period requirements of this Lease shall not
be necessary in order for Landlord to exercise remedies thereunder.

         43. SIGNS AND OFFICE BUILDING NAME.

              (a) For so long as Tenant occupies at least fifty percent (50%) of
the Office Building, Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall have the
right to construct and install up to two (2) signs containing Tenant's name
and/or logo on the exterior facade of the Office Building and one monument
containing Tenant's name and/or logo. The size, materials, color, location and
method of installation of such signs and monument shall be subject to the
Landlord's prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld. The sign and the monument shall comply with all applicable building
codes and Tenant shall obtain all necessary permits prior to installation. Prior
to the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant agrees to remove the
signs and repair all damage to the Office Building resulting from the
installation or removal of the signs.

              (b) Except as expressly provided herein, there shall be no signs,
symbols, or identifying marks on or in the Office Building, halls, elevators,
staircases, entrances, Parking Areas, landscape areas, doors, walls, or windows
without prior written approval of Landlord. All signs or lettering shall conform
to the sign and lettering criteria established by Landlord. Unless otherwise
stated in the rules, suite signage and Office Building directory changes shall
be done exclusively by Landlord and at Tenant's expense. Landlord may remove all
unapproved signs without prior notice to Tenant and at Tenant's expense.
Landlord may at any time change the name of the Office Building upon fifteen
(15) days' written notice to Tenant.

         44. RELOCATION OF TENANT. Intentionally omitted.

         45. TENANT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Prior to execution of the Lease and
thereafter from time to time, Tenant shall, upon written request, furnish to
Landlord a statement of Tenant's financial condition in a form reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord. All financial statements shall be originally signed by
Tenant or Tenant's certified public accountant. Provided, however, and
notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Tenant is a publicly traded company,
Tenant's obligations under this Paragraph 45 shall be satisfied by the delivery
to Landlord of a copy of the financial disclosure form as submitted by the
Tenant to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

         46. NOTICES.

              (a) Whenever notice is required or permitted under this Lease,

address set forth below (the "Notice Address"), (iii) delivered to such party's
Notice Address by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid or
(iv) delivered to one party by facsimile transmission at such party's facsimile

(ii) or (iii) above. The Notice Address of Landlord shall be 1901 N.W. Military
Highway, Suite 200, San Antonio, TX 78213, unless Landlord notifies Tenant of a
different address in writing. Prior to the Commencement Date, the Notice Address
of Tenant shall be 11550 IH-10 West, Suite 100, San Antonio, Texas 78230-1064,
Attn: Michael Dwyer, with a copy to ILEX Oncology, inc., 11550 IH-10 West, Suite

Commencement Date, the Notice Address of Tenant shall be the address of the
Office Building, Attn: Michael Dwyer, with a copy to the address of the Office
Building, Attn: General Counsel. However, if Tenant moves out, it shall be
Tenant's last address known by Landlord. Hand delivered notice is required only
when expressly required in this Lease. Notice by noncertified mail is sufficient
if actually received by the addressee or an employee or agent of addressee. The
term "notice" shall be inclusive of notices, billings, requests, and demands.
Notice shall be deemed to have been given and received the earlier of (x) the
date the notice is delivered by one party to the other party personally or
delivered to the party's Notice Address by a party or delivery service which
records delivery dates, or (y) three (3) days after the notice is placed in the
mail addressed to the other party at such party's Notice Address, properly
stamped, certified mail, return receipt requested.

              (b) Landlord agrees to provide to Tenant from time to time the
name(s), telephone and pager numbers of authorized representatives of Landlord
to be contacted by Tenant from time to time for repair, emergency or other
purposes related to operation or maintenance of the Office Building.

         47. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. From time to time, upon seven (7) days'
prior written request from Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to
Landlord an estoppel certificate in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT G. The
form in EXHIBIT G may be changed as reasonably required by a prospective
purchaser or lender. If any statement in the estoppel certificate form is
contrary to the facts existing at the time of execution of such form, Tenant may
correct same before signing. The estoppel certificate may be conclusively relied
upon by Landlord and by any prospective lienholder or purchaser of the Office
Building. If Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing by the end of such seven
(7) day period, it shall be conclusively presumed that (1) this Lease is in full
force and effect without any subleases or assignments and is unamended or
modified except for amendments verified by affidavit of Landlord to the
prospective lienholder or purchaser, (2) no Rents, or other charges except for
Tenant's

Security Deposit, have been prepaid, (3) the statements contained in the
estoppel certificate form (EXHIBIT G) are correct, (4) there are no uncured
defaults by Landlord, (5) Tenant has no right of offset or rescission, and (6)

noncompliance by Tenant and may conclusively assume no Landlord defaults within
the one hundred twenty (120) days preceding Tenant's receipt of Landlord's
request for an estoppel certificate.

         48. SUCCESSORS. This Lease shall bind and inure to the benefit of the
parties, any guarantors of this Lease, and their respective permitted successors
and assigns.

         49. LEASING AGENT COMMISSIONS. Landlord hereby warrants that it has had

Real Estate Broker. Landlord hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless Tenant from and against all costs, expenses, attorneys' fees, or other

responsible for compensating Landlord's Real Estate Broker and Tenant's Real
Estate Broker in accordance with the terms of Landlord's separate written
agreements related thereto.

         50. OFFICE BUILDING OPERATING EXPENSES. In addition to the monthly Base

financial condition of Tenant upon those dates and at the time of execution

Leased Premises.

         54. MISCELLANEOUS. This Lease contains the entire agreement of the
parties. No other written or oral promises or representations have been made,

be considered an agent of the other. The Lease shall not be construed against
either party more or less favorably by reason of authorship or origin of
language. This Lease shall be governed by Texas law. If any date of performance
or exercise of a right is due or ends on a Saturday, Sunday, federal or state
holiday, such date shall be automatically extended through the next business
day. Time is of the essence; and all performance dates, time schedules, and
conditions precedent to exercising a right shall be strictly adhered to without

is invalid under present or future laws, the remainder of this Lease shall not
be affected.

                                    EXHIBIT C
                 OFFICE BUILDING OPERATING EXPENSE CALCULATIONS

                       OFFICE BUILDING OPERATING EXPENSES
                           (SEE PARAGRAPH 50 OF LEASE)

A. Payment of Office Building Operating Expenses.

         (1) Payment of Initial Estimate of Office Building Operating Expenses.
Landlord shall provide an initial estimate of Operating Expenses (as hereinafter
defined) no later than the Commencement Date (the "Initial Estimate").
Thereafter, commencing with the first Calendar Year (as hereinafter defined)
beginning after the Commencement Date, Landlord shall estimate the Operating
Expenses of the Leased Premises by April 1 of each Calendar Year, or as soon as
reasonably possible thereafter. Landlord may revise these estimates whenever it
obtains more accurate information.

              Beginning on the Commencement Date and on the first day of each
month thereafter until a revised estimate is received, Tenant shall pay one
twelfth (1/12th) of the Initial Estimate. Within ten (10) days after receiving a
revised estimate of Operating Expenses from Landlord, Tenant shall pay Landlord
the positive difference between (a) one-twelfth (1/12th) of the revised estimate
of Operating Expenses multiplied by the number of months that have elapsed in
the applicable Calendar Year to the date of such payment including the current
month and (b) payments previously made by Tenant for Operating Expenses for the
months elapsed. On the first day of each month thereafter, Tenant shall pay
Landlord one-twelfth (1/12th) of the revised estimate of Operating Expenses,
until a new estimate becomes applicable.

         (2) Correction of Operating Expenses. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant
a report for the previous Calendar Year (the "Operating Expense Report") by
April 1 of each year, or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, setting
forth (a) the actual Operating Expenses incurred, (b) the amount of Operating
Expenses due from Tenant, and (c) the amount of Operating Expenses previously
paid by Tenant. Within twenty (20) days after such delivery, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the amount due minus the amount paid. If the amount paid exceeds the
amount due, Landlord shall apply the excess to Tenant's payments of Operating
Expenses next coming due.

         (3) Tenant's Right to Audit. Within ninety (90) days after receipt of
the Operating Expense Report, Tenant may, at Tenant's expense, audit the books
and records of Landlord relating to the computation of the Office Building
Operating Expenses for the prior year. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing
at least three (3) days prior to any such audit. Landlord agrees that it will
make available to Tenant, at Landlord's office during normal business hours, all
appropriate records or copies thereof required for the performance of such
audit. If such audit reveals that the Operating Expenses have been incorrectly
computed, and if Landlord agrees with such audit, then Landlord and Tenant shall
make appropriate reconciliation payments, in cash, between themselves based on
the correct amount of the Operating Expenses.

B. Definitions.

         (1) Included Operating Expenses. "Operating Expenses" means expenses,
costs and disbursements paid or incurred by Landlord pursuant to the other

Construction Documents (as such term is hereinafter defined) provided by Tenant.

         (a) All plans and specifications relating to the Tenant Improvements
shall be prepared by duly licensed architects and engineers selected and
employed by Tenant and approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, and shall comply with all building and



                                       1
<PAGE>   37


fire codes, the ADA, and all other applicable laws, regulations, codes and
ordinances. Tenant may employ other consultants of its selection to assist with
the design and construction of Tenant Improvements. Tenant's architects,
engineers, and other consultants shall be afforded access to all work in
progress in the Leased Premises.

         (b) By no later than July 20, 2000, Tenant shall submit to Landlord
architectural plans and specifications (the "Tenant's Plans") prepared by
Tenant's architect and signed by Tenant describing the Tenant Improvements in
sufficient detail to enable Landlord to combine Tenant's Plans with the
engineering plans to obtain the necessary building permits from applicable
governmental authorities and permit their actual construction. Within ten (10)
days after receipt of Tenant's Plans, Landlord shall either (1) approve Tenant's
Plans by written notice to Tenant, or (2) deliver to Tenant a written list of
any changes reasonably required. Failure to respond in accordance with the
preceding sentence within the required ten (10) day period shall be deemed to
constitute approval of Tenant's Plans as submitted. Any required changes must be
reasonably specific and must be accompanied by a statement of the reasons for
each required change. If changes are so required, Tenant shall cause its
architects to make the required changes within three (3) business days after
receipt of the notice described in clause (2) of this Paragraph (b) and resubmit
Tenant's Plans to Landlord for approval. If changes have been made in accordance
with the notice described in clause (2) of this Paragraph (b), Landlord shall
approve Tenant's Plans by written notice to the Tenant within three (3) business
days following its receipt of the revised Tenant's Plans. For purposes hereof,
the approved Tenant's Plans together with the engineering plans shall constitute
the "Approved Tenant Improvement Construction Documents."

         (c) Within three (3) business days after any oral or written request
submitted from time to time by Tenant or its architects, engineers, or other
consultants, Landlord shall furnish any plans (including accurate base building
and "as-built" drawings), specifications, drawings, samples, or other materials
or information reasonably related to the design and construction of the Tenant
Improvements in the possession of or reasonably available to Landlord.

         (d) In addition to their obligations under Paragraph (b) above,
Tenant's architects and engineers shall be responsible for ensuring that the
Tenant Improvements described in the Construction Documents comply with (and
that no changes or additional or different equipment or parts are required to
comply with), building codes, fire codes and other laws applicable to the Office
Building generally, and with the specifications and standards of the Office
Building (provided that such specifications and standards are supplied to Tenant
by Landlord upon Tenant's request) relating to:

                  1.       HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems;

                  2.       Floor loading; and

                  3.       Window treatments, if different from those supplied
by Landlord, signs, graphics, or other quality, appearance, or aesthetic
considerations visible outside the Office Building.

         (e) Construction of the Tenant Improvements shall be accomplished by
Landlord, at the sole cost and expense of Tenant subject to Landlord's payment
of the allowance as hereinafter provided and subject to any insurance
reimbursements paid to Landlord for damage to the Tenant Improvements occurring
during construction of such Tenant Improvements, in accordance with the Approved
Tenant Improvement Construction Documents under the terms of a single
construction contract on AIA



                                       2
<PAGE>   38


Document A111-1997 (Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Contractor-Cost
of Work Plus a Fee with Guaranteed Maximum Price) with terms not inconsistent
with the Lease or the following provisions (hereinafter called the "Construction
Contract") with Orion Construction Services ("Contractor"). The Construction
Contract shall:

              1. Provide for the entire cost of the work, including Contractor's
overhead, which shall be five percent (5%), and profit, which shall also be five
percent (5%).

              2. Separately state a schedule of values for each trade;

              3. Require builder's risk and other insurance coverage in amounts
and types acceptable to Landlord, provided that upon Tenant's request, such
coverage shall name Tenant as an additional insured provided that (i) including
Tenant as an additional insured is commercially reasonable and (ii) if including
Tenant as an additional insured requires the payment of an additional premium
Tenant may elect to either pay such additional premium, obtain coverage from
another insurer, or waive its request to be named as an additional insured;

              4. Provide for a schedule and sequence of construction activities
and completion;

              5. Require that the Contractor complete the Tenant Improvements so
that the same are ready for occupancy by Tenant no later than the estimated
Completion Date set forth in Paragraph (f) below;

              6. Unless otherwise agreed to between Landlord and Tenant, require
that the Contractor obtain at least three (3) bids for all major subcontracts
and accept the lowest bid from a subcontractor which in Contractor's sole
opinion is capable of timely completing its work; and

              7. Require that the Contractor warrant all work and materials for
a period of one (1) year following the date of the issuance of the Substantial
Completion Certificate as hereinafter defined.

         (f) Landlord's estimated Completion Date is October 1, 2000. The
"Completion Date" means, for any part of the Office Building, the date that the
Tenant Improvements have been substantially completed; provided that for all
purposes the Completion Date shall be deemed the date the foregoing would have
occurred but for Tenant Delays (as hereinafter defined). Substantial completion
of the Tenant Improvements shall be determined as follows:

              1. When Landlord believes that the Tenant Improvements have been
substantially completed in accordance with the Approved Tenant Improvement
Documents, Landlord, Tenant, and Tenant's architect shall walk through and
observe the Tenant Improvements.

              2. The Tenant Improvements shall be considered substantially
completed when they conform to the Approved Tenant Improvement Construction
Documents and are capable of being occupied for their intended purpose exclusive
of touch-up, minor finish, and similar so-called "punch-list" items that do not
unreasonably interfere with occupancy or Tenant's business activities and
Landlord has filed an application or request for a final certificate of
occupancy. In the event of any dispute between Landlord and Tenant relating to
whether the Tenant Improvements in the Office



                                       3
<PAGE>   39


Building are substantially complete, or relating to what punch-list or other
work is required to finally complete such construction in accordance with the
Approved Tenant Improvement Construction Documents, the reasonable decision of
an independent third party architect selected by Landlord and Tenant shall be
controlling.

         (g) When the Tenant Improvements are substantially completed, Landlord
shall issue and Tenant and Landlord shall each sign a certificate (the
"Substantial Completion Certificate") which shall include a list of all
punch-list items needed to achieve final completion. Landlord shall cause the
Contractor to complete all punch-list items identified in any Substantial
Completion Certificate as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty
(30) days after the Substantial Completion Certificate has been issued or, if
such items cannot be reasonably completed within such 30-day period, then within
such longer period of time as may be reasonably required provided that the
Landlord diligently and continuously pursues the same to completion.

         (h) During the construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall
have the right to request changes in the Tenant Improvements by delivery of
written notice to Landlord ("Change Order Request") advising Landlord of the
requested changes in the work. Tenant shall include within the Change Order
Request such additional plans and specifications as Landlord may reasonably
require with respect to any such proposed changes. Within five (5) business days
after Landlord's receipt of a Change Order Request, Landlord shall advise Tenant
in writing ("Landlord's Response") of (i) any increase in the cost of the Tenant
Improvements and (ii) the period of delay, if any, of substantial completion of
the Tenant Improvements which Landlord determines would result from such Change
Order Request. Tenant shall advise Landlord within three (3) days following its
receipt of Landlord's Response whether Tenant elects to proceed with the changes
included in the Change Order Request. In the event Tenant so elects to proceed
with changes, Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord the amount of the increase
in cost, if any, attributable thereto.

         (i) Tenant's representatives shall be allowed to enter the Office
Building prior to the Completion Date for the coordination with Landlord of
moving furniture and equipment into the Office Building and for the installation
of Tenant's furnishings and equipment on the following terms and conditions:

              1. such early entry shall be coordinated with the Landlord's
construction activities;

              2. Tenant's workers will not interfere with Landlord's workers and
will not in any way delay Landlord's construction activities; and

              3. Tenant shall comply with all of the obligations to be performed
by Tenant under this Lease except for the payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent,
utilities or Taxes, it being understood that such early access prior to the
Completion Date shall not be construed to be "occupancy" of the Leased Premises
for the purpose of conducting business as such term is used in Paragraph 8 of
the Lease..

         (j) Tenant shall be provided an allowance of $1,540,098.00 ($18.00 per
square foot of Rentable Area in the Leased Premises) (the "Allowance") as
defined in Paragraph 3 of the Lease, payable by Landlord directly to the
Contractor, Tenant's architect and engineers to cover the cost of constructing
the Tenant Improvements. Costs of constructing the Tenant Improvements in
accordance



                                       4
<PAGE>   40


with this EXHIBIT E in excess of such allowance (but subject to any insurance
reimbursements paid to Landlord for damage to the Tenant Improvements occurring
during construction of such Tenant Improvements) shall be paid by Tenant within
fifteen (15) days of receipt of an invoice therefor from Landlord.

         (k) If the Leased Premises are not substantially complete by April 1,
2001, Tenant may terminate the Lease by written notice to Landlord at any time
thereafter but prior to such substantial completion, unless such delay in
substantial completion was caused by Tenant including, but not limited to
Tenant's failure to deliver Tenant's Plans by July 20, 2000, change orders
initiated by Tenant, selection of tenant finish items not ready for immediate
delivery to the Office Building (collectively, "Tenant Delays") or any other
cause beyond the direct control of Landlord or its Affiliates. In either such
case, the April 1, 2001 date shall be extended day for day in every instance.
Provided delays are caused by events under the direct control of Landlord, and
Tenant chooses to terminate the Lease, then neither party shall have any further
liability or obligations under the Lease; and Landlord shall refund to Tenant
any prepaid Rent, security deposits, and any amounts paid by Tenant in excess of
the construction allowance.

          (l) Landlord covenants to use reasonable and diligent efforts to
enforce the terms of the Contractor warranty referenced in Paragraph (e) 7 above
for the benefit of Tenant. However, Landlord shall not be required to incur any
costs in connection with such enforcement efforts unless Tenant agrees in
writing to reimburse all actual costs incurred by Landlord in connection
therewith including without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and expenses.
Landlord agrees to notify Tenant of any problems in enforcing warranties prior
to incurring legal fees and expenses and to confer and cooperate with Tenant in
seeking performance of any warranty work.

         It is the desire of Landlord and Tenant to maintain and operate the
Parking Areas in an orderly manner. The following rules and regulations apply to
the Tenant and its agents, employees, licensees, invitees, visitors, and
contractors unless otherwise stated. Landlord reserves the right to rescind

         2. TENANT EMPLOYEE AND CUSTOMER PARKING. The Tenant and its employees
and customers may park without charge in spaces which are not specifically
reserved for "visitors", fire lanes, loading zones, handicapped parking, or
other specialized parking and so marked. Tenant's usage of the Parking Areas
shall be limited to parking of vehicles during the normal operating hours of the
Office Building. If Tenant desires from time to time to park a vehicle for a
period exceeding seventy-two (72) hours, Tenant shall notify Landlord of such
desire and Landlord may allow Tenant to park a vehicle for such period. Landlord
reserves the right to utilize any reasonable system by which Tenant may arrange
and, if applicable, pay for parking of its guests or customers.

         3. TRASH. All persons parking in the Parking Areas shall refrain from
throwing trash, ashtray contents, or other debris on the Parking Areas.

         4. FLAT TIRES. All vehicle owners and all persons parking in the

conditions of the vehicle which cause unsightliness in the reasonable judgment
of Landlord.

         5. REMOVAL OF UNAUTHORIZED VEHICLES. If vehicles are blocking driveways

         7. PARKING OF EMPLOYEE VEHICLES. Landlord may from time to time
designate specific areas in which vehicles owned by Tenant and Tenant's
employees, sublessees, assignees, licensees, and concessionaires shall be
parked. Tenant shall use best efforts to see that such vehicles are parked in
such areas. Upon request by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish Landlord a complete
list of license numbers of all vehicles operated by Tenant and the above listed
persons.

         8. PARKING OF TRUCKS AND DELIVERY VEHICLES. Without Landlord's prior
written approval, no trailers or large trucks may be parked in the parking areas
except for temporary loading or unloading. Service and delivery vehicles may be
parked in loading zones only when necessary.

provided a copy of contract specifications upon request.

         Tenant shall not employ any person for the purpose of cleaning other
than the authorized cleaning and maintenance personnel for the Office Building
unless otherwise approved in writing by Landlord. In those instances when Tenant
contracts, with Landlord's written approval, for its own janitorial services,
rubbish removal and exterminating shall be part of the work of the Tenant's
contractor. Janitorial service shall not be hindered by Tenant after 6:00 p.m.

and installed in the Leased Premises are exceptions to these conditions.

         6. Tenant shall exercise caution in the protection of personal property
located within the Leased Premises from loss or damage by keeping doors to
unattended areas locked. Landlord shall not be responsible to the Tenant, its
agents, employees or invitees for any losses of money, jewelry or other personal

property therein from any cause whatsoever whether such loss or damage occurs
when an area is locked against entry or not. Tenant shall report any thefts or
losses to the Office Building manager and security personnel as

Tenant will insure that delivery personnel make deliveries through Landlord's
designated delivery entrance, and that they use all caution necessary to prevent
any damage to the Office Building and furnishings.

         11. Landlord will provide outside waste containers available to Tenant
for the disposal of waste too large to deposit in the Tenant's containers.
Tenant may use the outside containers, but must ensure that waste is deposited

is kept in a neat, orderly condition. Packing cartons, large boxes or other
items must be broken down before depositing so as to fit in the hopper.

         12. Waste paper, smoking materials, drink or food remains, or any other
refuse must not be deposited in any area or container designed or used for

lieu of foreclosure, Tenant shall attorn to the mortgagee or foreclosure
purchaser by recognizing such new owner as Landlord under the Lease provided

                                    EXHIBIT I
                               SPECIAL CONDITIONS
                         (SEE PARAGRAPH 56 OF THE LEASE)


         The following special conditions shall apply to this Lease and shall
prevail over any other provisions to the contrary.

         1. Additional Funding. Landlord agrees to fund to Tenant the sum of
Four Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($450,000.00) (the "Additional
Funding"). The Additional Funding shall be paid to Tenant within fifteen (15)
days after Tenant and Landlord have executed and delivered the Acknowledgment of
Lease in the form set forth in EXHIBIT D. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that
the Additional Funding may be used only for the following purposes:

              (a) the cost of the Tenant Improvements;

              (b) the construction of additional covered parking spaces;

              (c) moving expenses; and/or

              (d) expenses incurred by Tenant in connection with the mitigation
of Tenant's existing lease at Northwest Atrium.

         2. Letter of Credit. Within ten (10) days after the execution of this
Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord for Landlord's benefit an unconditional,
irrevocable standby documentary letter of credit in the amount of $2,838,435.00
(the "Letter of Credit").

         The Letter of Credit shall be (i) unconditional except for the
presentment requirement contemplated by Attachment 1; (ii) irrevocable; (iii)
issued by Frost National Bank or such other U.S. financial institution having
assets equal to or greater than Frost National Bank; (iv) assignable; (v) in a
form permitting partial and multiple drawings; (vi) for an initial term expiring
October 1, 2001, to be renewed at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration
thereof for one (1) year periods until October 1, 2005; (vii) in the form
attached to this EXHIBIT I as Attachment 1; and (viii) drawable in San Antonio,
Texas. The Landlord shall be entitled to draw down on the entire amount of the
Letter of Credit without notice on or after the 30th day preceding any annual
expiration date of the Letter of Credit, if Tenant is required to and fails to
replace the Letter of Credit in the form provided above. Tenant hereby consents
to the assignment of the Letter of Credit to any holder of a first lien on the
Leased Premises if requested by such Mortgagee.

         Upon the occurrence of a Default (as defined in subparagraph 34(a)) by
Tenant under this Lease, and the failure of Tenant to cure the Default within
the applicable period to cure the Default, the Landlord shall be entitled to
make such multiple and partial draws against the Letter of Credit as necessary
to compensate Landlord for (1) unpaid Rent, including late charges and interest,
(2) Rent as it becomes due and payable (but not accelerated rents), (3) the cost
of reletting the Leased Premises, including refurbishing, tenant improvements
required under a new lease for a replacement tenant, and leasing commissions,
(4) unamortized leasehold improvements and leasing commissions (to the extent
the same is not a part of (3) above), (5) unpaid property taxes then due and
owing, unpaid insurance



                                       1
<PAGE>   51


premiums for Landlord's insurance coverage for the Leased Premises then due and
owing, and unpaid Operating Expenses then due and owing, and/or (6) any other
amounts due and unpaid by Tenant under this Lease.

         Unless a Default by Tenant under the Lease has occurred and was not
cured or waived, the Letter of Credit shall be reduced (i) on October 1, 2001,
to $2,530,415.00; (ii) on October 1, 2002, to $2,222,395.00; (iii) on October 1,
2003, to $1,914,375.00; and (iv) on October 1, 2004, to $1,609,355.00. The
Letter of Credit shall expire on October 1, 2005.

         3. Expansion Option. Tenant acknowledges that the Fountainhead Park One
office building ("FPO") is leased in its entirety to United Services Automobile
Association ("USAA"). Upon expiration of the USAA lease or upon earlier
termination of USAA's lease on all or any portion of the FPO ("Vacated Space"),
Landlord shall notify Tenant and provided Tenant is not in Default, and further
provided that FPO and Fountainhead Park Two are owned by the same entity, Tenant
shall have the option to lease the Vacated Space. In the event Tenant wishes to
exercise such option, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within fifteen
(15) days of receipt from Landlord of notification of the date on which the
Vacated Space becomes available. Within ten (10) days after receipt of such
notification from Tenant, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a lease agreement
incorporating the same terms and conditions as those in this Lease, with the
following exceptions: (a) the Base Rent for the Vacated Space shall be the then
current market rent, but not less than the remaining Base Rent scheduled on this
Lease increased by the cumulative increase (if any ) in the Consumer Price Index
for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of
the United States Department of Labor (1982-84 = 100) from Tenant's Commencement
Date to the time Tenant exercises the option; (b) the allowance for Tenant
improvements to the vacated space shall be $5.00 per rentable square foot; (c)
the term of such lease shall be coterminous with the Term of this Lease, but in
no event shall the term of such lease be less than five (5) years and in the
event the remaining Term of this Lease is less than five (5) years, the Term of
this Lease shall be extended to provide for the remaining Term to be not less
than five (5) years. During such extended period, if any, Base Rent shall be
calculated as set forth in (a) above; (d) the provisions of such lease shall, in
each instance where referenced therein, refer to the FPO; and (e) there will be
no Additional Funding provided by Landlord in connection with such lease. This
Expansion Option is personal to Tenant and Tenant shall not have the right to
assign its expansion rights to any assignee or sublessee of the Leased Premises,
except to any Affiliate of Tenant, as defined in the Lease.

         4. Option to Renew.

              (a) Provided that Tenant is not in default in the performance of
the terms, covenants and provisions under this Lease at the time of the giving
of notice of Tenant's election to exercise the Renewal Option (hereinafter
defined), Tenant shall have one (1) option to renew the term of this Lease (the
"Renewal Option"), for a period of five (5) years (the "Renewal Term"), to
commence at the expiration of the then initial term of this Lease. Tenant shall
exercise such Renewal Option by delivering written notice to Landlord at least
three hundred sixty (360) days prior to the expiration of the initial term of
this Lease. Failure to give such notice by Tenant to Landlord shall result in
such Renewal Option being void and of no further force and effect. If Tenant
duly exercises the Renewal Option, the Renewal Term shall apply to the entire
Leased Premises.

              (b) The renewal of this Lease shall be upon the same terms and
conditions as this Lease, except that the Base Rent to be paid by Tenant during
the Renewal Term shall be an amount equal



                                       2
<PAGE>   52


to the then existing fair market rental rate for comparable space in comparable
buildings, but in no event less than the current Base Rent that Tenant is then
paying under this Lease increased by the cumulative increase (if any) in the
Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) published by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor (1982-84 = 100) from
the Commencement Date until the date of exercise.

              (c) The Tenant shall have no further renewal options.

         This Renewal Option is personal to Tenant and Tenant shall not have the
right to assign its renewal rights to any assignee or sublessee of the Leased
Premises, except to any Affiliate of Tenant, as defined in the Lease.

                        SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE AND
                              ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT


         THIS AGREEMENT made this ___ day of _________________, 20___, between
GUARANTY FEDERAL BANK, F.S.B., a federal savings bank (hereinafter called
"Lender") and ILEX Oncology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called
"Tenant") and Orion Fountainhead Two Partner, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership
(hereinafter called "Landlord").

                                WITNESSETH THAT:

         WHEREAS, Lender is now or will be the owner and holder of a Deed of
Trust, Mortgage and Security Agreement (hereinafter called the "Security
Instrument"), dated ______________, recorded in Volume ________, Page _______ of
the Real Property Records of ________ County, ____________, covering the real
property described in Exhibit A and the buildings and improvements thereon
(hereinafter collectively called the "Mortgaged Premises") securing the payment
of a promissory note in the stated principal amount of $_____________, payable
to the order of Lender;

         WHEREAS, Tenant is the tenant under that certain Office Lease Agreement
(hereinafter called the "Lease") dated _________________, by and between
Landlord and Tenant, covering certain property (hereinafter called the "Demised
Premises") consisting of a part of the Mortgaged Premises; and

         WHEREAS, Tenant, Landlord and Lender desire to confirm their
understanding with respect to the Lease and the Security Instrument;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
herein contained, Lender, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree and covenant as
follows:

1. Subordination. The Lease now is, and shall at all times and for all purposes
continue to be, subject and subordinate, in each and every respect, to the
Security Instrument, with the provisions of the Security Instrument controlling
in all respects over the provisions of the Lease, it being understood and agreed
that the foregoing subordination shall apply to any and all increases, renewals,
modifications, extensions, substitutions, replacements and/or consolidations of
the Security Instrument, provided that any and all such increases, renewals,
modifications, extensions, substitutions, replacements and/or consolidations
shall nevertheless be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

2. Non-Disturbance. So long as (i) Tenant is not in default (beyond any period
given Tenant to cure such default) in the payment of rent or additional rent or
in the performance of any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of the
Lease on Tenant's part to be performed, (ii) the Lease is in full force and
effect, and (iii) Tenant attorns to Lender or a purchaser of the Mortgaged
Premises as provided in Paragraph 3, then (a) Tenant's possession, occupancy,
use and quiet enjoyment of the Demised Premises under the Lease, or any
extensions or renewals thereof or acquisition of additional space which may be
effected in accordance with any option therefor in the Lease, shall not be
terminated, disturbed, diminished or interfered with by Lender in the exercise
of any of its rights under the Security Instrument, and (b) Lender will not join
Tenant as a party defendant in any action or proceeding for the purpose of
terminating Tenant's interest and estate under the Lease because of any default
under the Security Instrument.

3. Attornment. If Lender shall become the owner of the Mortgaged Premises or the
Mortgaged Premises shall be sold by reason of non-judicial or judicial
foreclosure or other proceedings brought to enforce the Security Instrument or
the Mortgaged Premises shall be conveyed by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the
Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct Lease between Lender
or other purchaser of the Mortgaged Premises, who shall



                                       1
<PAGE>   57


succeed to the rights and duties of Landlord, and Tenant. In such event, Tenant
shall attorn to Lender or such purchaser, as the case may be, upon any such
occurrence and shall recognize Lender or such purchaser, as the case may be, as
the Landlord under the Lease. Such attornment shall be effective and
self-operative without the execution of any further instrument on the part of
any of the parties hereto. Tenant agrees, however, to execute and deliver at any
time and from time to time, upon the request of Landlord or of any holder(s) of
any of the indebtedness or other obligations secured by the Security Instrument
or any such purchaser, any instrument or certificate which, in the sole
reasonable judgment of the requesting party, is necessary or appropriate, in
connection with any such foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise, to evidence such attornment, which instrument or certificate shall be
in form and content reasonably acceptable to Tenant. Tenant hereby waives the
provisions of any statute or rule of law, now or hereafter in effect, which may
give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise
adversely affect the Lease and the obligations of Tenant thereunder as a result
of any such foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure.

4. Obligations and Remedies. If Lender shall become the owner of the Mortgaged
Premises or the Mortgaged Premises shall be sold by reason of non-judicial or
judicial foreclosure or other proceedings brought to enforce the Security
Instrument or the Mortgaged Premises shall be conveyed by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, Lender or other purchaser of the Mortgaged Premises, as the case
may be, shall have the same remedies by entry, action or otherwise in the event
of any default by Tenant (beyond any period given Tenant to cure such default)
in the payment of rent or additional rent or in the performance of any of the
other terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease on Tenant's part to be
performed that Landlord had or would have had if Lender or such purchaser had
not succeeded to the interest of Landlord. Upon attornment by Tenant as provided
herein, Lender or such purchaser shall be bound to Tenant under all the terms,
covenants and conditions of the Lease and Tenant shall have the same remedies
against Lender or such purchaser for the breach of an agreement contained in the
Lease that Tenant might have had under the Lease against Landlord if Lender or
such purchaser had not succeeded to the interest of Landlord; provided, however,
that Lender or such purchaser shall not be liable or bound to Tenant:

         (a) for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including Landlord)
which constitutes a default or breach of the Lease; provided, however, nothing
herein shall be deemed to be a waiver of Tenant's rights or remedies in the
event such act or omission is of a continuing nature, such as, for example,
Landlord's failure to fulfill a repair obligation, and such default is not cured
by Lender or such purchaser after Lender or such purchaser acquires the
Mortgaged Premises (however, Lender or such purchaser shall in no event be
liable for any tort claims which Tenant may have against Landlord or any claims
for liquidated damages which may be owing by Landlord under the Lease); or

         (b) for any offsets or defenses which the Tenant might be entitled to
assert against Landlord arising prior to the date Lender takes possession of
Landlord's interest in the Lease or becomes a mortgagee in possession, subject
to Tenant's continued right of offset for any default by Landlord which remains
uncured provided notice of such default has been provided to Lender in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; or

         (c) for or by any rent or additional rent which Tenant might have paid
for more than the current month to any prior landlord (including Landlord); or

         (d) by any amendment or modification of the Lease made without Lender's
consent that (i) results in a reduction or rent or other sums due and payable
pursuant to the Lease (ii) modifies any operating covenant of Tenant in the
Lease, (iii) reduces the term of the Lease, (iv) terminates the Lease, (v)
provides for payment of rent more than one month in advance, or (vi) materially
increases Landlord's obligations under the Lease; or

         (e) for any security deposit, rental deposit or similar deposit given
by Tenant to a prior landlord (including Landlord) unless such deposit is
actually paid over to Lender or such purchaser by the prior landlord; or

         (f) for any portion of the Allowance (as such term is defined in the
Lease) previously disbursed to Landlord by Lender pursuant to the Construction
Loan Agreement executed by and between Landlord and Lender; or



                                       2
<PAGE>   58


         (g) for the construction of any improvements required of Landlord under
the Lease in the event Lender or such purchaser acquires title to the Mortgaged
Premises prior to full completion and acceptance by Tenant of improvements
required under the Lease; provided, however, such lack of liability on the part
of Lender or such purchaser pursuant to this subparagraph shall not affect
Tenant's rights of self-help and offset or termination described in the Lease in
the event of such failure to complete such improvements as long as Tenant has
provided all applicable notices and cure periods as required under the Lease and
this Agreement; or

         (h) by any provision of the Lease restricting use of other properties
owned by Lender, as landlord; or

         (i) by any notice given by Tenant to a prior landlord (including
Landlord) unless a copy thereof was also then given to Lender.

         The person or entity to whom Tenant attorns shall be liable to Tenant
under the Lease only for matters arising during such person's or entity's period
of ownership.

6. No Abridgment. Nothing herein contained is intended, nor shall it be
construed, to abridge or adversely affect any right or remedy of Landlord under
the Lease in the event of any default by Tenant (beyond any period given Tenant
to cure such default) in the payment of rent or additional rent or in the
performance of any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on
Tenant's part to be performed.

7. Notices of Default to Lender. Tenant agrees to give Lender a copy of any
default notice sent by Tenant under the Lease to Landlord.

8. Representations by Tenant. Tenant represents and warrants to Lender that
Tenant has validly executed the Lease; the Lease is valid, binding and
enforceable and is in full force and effect in accordance with its terms; the
Lease has not been amended except as stated herein; no rent under the Lease has
been paid more than thirty (30) days in advance of its due date; there are no
defaults existing under the Lease on the part of Tenant, and to the best of
Tenant's knowledge, there are no defaults on the part of Landlord, and Tenant,
as of this date, has no charge, lien, counterclaim or claim of offset under the
Lease, or otherwise, against the rents or other charges due or to become due
under the Lease.

9. Rent Payment. If Lender shall become the owner of the Mortgaged Premises or
the Mortgaged Premises shall be sold by reason of non-judicial or judicial
foreclosure or other proceedings brought to enforce the Security Instrument or
the Mortgaged Premises shall be conveyed by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Tenant
agrees to pay all rents directly to Lender or other purchaser of the Mortgaged
Premises, as the case may be, in accordance with the Lease immediately upon
notice of Lender or such purchaser, as the case may be, succeeding to Landlord's
interest under the Lease. Tenant further agrees to pay all rents directly to
Lender immediately upon notice that Lender is exercising its rights to such
rents under the Security Instrument or any other loan documents (including but
not limited to any Assignment of Leases and Rents) following a default by
Landlord or other applicable party. Tenant shall be under no obligation to
ascertain whether a default by Landlord has occurred under the Security
Instrument or any other loan documents. Landlord waives any right, claim or
demand it may now or hereafter have against Tenant by reason of such direct
payment to Lender and agrees that such direct payment to Lender shall discharge
all obligations of Tenant to make such payment to Landlord.

10. Notice of Security Instrument. To the extent that the Lease shall entitle
Tenant to notice of any deed of trust or security agreement, this Agreement
shall constitute such notice to the Tenant with respect to the Security
Instrument and to any and all other deeds of trust and security agreements which
may hereafter be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

11. Landlord Defaults. Tenant agrees with Lender that effective as of the date
of this Agreement: (i) Tenant shall not take any steps to terminate the Lease
for any default by Landlord or any succeeding owner of the Mortgaged Premises
until after giving Lender written notice of such default, stating the nature of
the default and giving Lender thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice to
effect cure of the same, or if cure cannot be effected within said thirty (30)
days due to the nature of the default, Lender shall have a reasonable time to
cure provided



                                       3
<PAGE>   59


that it commences cure within said thirty (30) day period of time and diligently
carries such cure to completion; and (ii) notice to Landlord under the Lease
(oral or written) shall not constitute notice to Lender.

12. Liability of Lender. If Lender shall become the owner of the Mortgaged
Premises or the Mortgaged Premises shall be sold by reason of foreclosure or
other proceedings brought to enforce the Security Instrument or the Mortgaged
Premises shall be conveyed by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Tenant agrees that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, after such
foreclosure sale or conveyance by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Lender, in its
capacity as landlord under the Lease, shall have no personal liability to Tenant
under the Lease and Tenant shall look solely to the Mortgaged Premises, to the
net proceeds of sale thereof or the rentals received therefrom, for the
satisfaction of Tenant's remedies for the collection of a judgment or other
judicial process requiring the payment of money by Lender, in its capacity as
landlord in the event of any default or breach by Lender, in its capacity as
landlord, with respect to any of the terms, covenants, and conditions of the
Lease to be observed or performed by Lender, in its capacity as landlord, and
any other obligation of Lender, in its capacity as landlord, created by or under
the Lease, and no other property or assets of Lender shall be subject to levy,
execution or other enforcement procedures for the satisfaction of Tenant's
remedies. Further, in the event of any transfer by Lender of the landlord's
interest in the Lease, Lender (and in the case of any subsequent transfers or
conveyances, the then assignor), including each of its partners, officers,
beneficiaries, co-tenants, shareholders or principals (as the case may be) shall
be automatically freed and released, from and after the date of such transfer or
conveyance, of all liability for the performance of any covenants and agreements
which accrue subsequent to the date of such transfer of landlord's interest.

13. Notice. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder shall be
given in writing, sent by (a) personal delivery, or (b) expedited delivery
service with proof of delivery, or (c) United States mail, postage prepaid,

given and received either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of
delivery service or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the
address and in the manner provided herein.

14. Letter of Credit. Upon Lender's written request, Tenant and Landlord agree
that the Letter of Credit (as defined in the Lease) shall name Lender as the
beneficiary thereof, and that Lender (without the joinder of Landlord) shall
have the right to present the Letter of Credit for payment at such time as
Landlord is entitled to present the Letter of Credit for payment under the Lease
but only in the amount(s) and subject to the limits and conditions specified in
the Lease and the Letter of Credit. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Lender
may rely on a written notice from Landlord that Tenant is in default under the
Lease and that Lender may present the Letter of Credit for payment as provided
in the Lease, and that Tenant's sole recourse shall be against Landlord and not
Lender in the event Lender relies on such written notice from Landlord. In the
event Lender makes a partial draw on the Letter of Credit to pay past due
installment(s) of rent under the Lease, Lender shall be entitled to apply the
proceeds received from such presentation of the Letter of Credit to any
installments of principal and/or interest then due and owing under the Note, and
provided that the Landlord is not then in default under the Security Instrument,
the excess, if any, shall be returned to Landlord, otherwise, Lender shall keep
such excess. In the event the entire outstanding amount of the Letter of Credit
is presented for payment, Lender shall be entitled to apply the entire proceeds
of the Letter of Credit received from such presentation to the indebtedness then
outstanding under the Note. At such time as Landlord repays to Lender all
amounts outstanding under the Note, Lender shall assign the Letter of Credit to
Landlord by delivering a notice to the issuing bank.

15  Modification. This Agreement may not be modified orally or in any manner
other than by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their
respective successors in interest.

16. Successor Lender. The term "Lender" as used throughout this Agreement
includes any successor or assign of Lender, any affiliate of Lender acquiring
the Mortgaged Property at foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, and any
holder(s) of any interest in the indebtedness secured by the Security
Instrument.

17. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto, their successors and assigns, and any purchaser
or purchasers at foreclosure of the Mortgaged Premises, and their respective
successors and assigns.

18. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings contained in this Agreement are
for convenience only and shall in no way enlarge or limit the scope or meaning
of the various and several paragraphs hereof.

19. Gender and Number. Within this Agreement, words of any gender shall be held
and construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular number
shall be held and construed to include the plural and words in the plural number
shall be held and construed to include the singular, unless the context
otherwise requires.

20. Applicable Law. This Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties
hereunder shall be governed by all purposes by the law of the state where the
Mortgaged Premises is located and the law of the United States applicable to
transactions within such state.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have hereunto caused this
Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.
