reason of any sales taxes, use taxes,  retailers' occupation taxes, excise taxes
at the retail level and the like, now or hereafter imposed and however entitled,
and which are based upon the amounts of sales or the units of sales.

 shall have access to such records at the place where the same are kept, for the

     4. (a) Landlord  shall put Tenant into  exclusive  possession of the Leased
Premises on or before April 1, 2000 or as soon as possible thereafter, and in no
case not later than  November 1, 2001,  and at the same time deliver to Tenant a

the Leased  Premises to Tenant,  Landlord  shall send  written  notice to Tenant
which shall be certified  by  Landlord's  architect,  at least seven (7) but not
more than  twenty-one  (21) days prior to the date of  delivery  of  possession,
which notice shall confirm the date that possession  shall be delivered and that

remedies at law, equity or under this Lease,  may cancel this Lease by notice to
Landlord.  The Leased  Premises  upon  delivery  shall be in good  condition and
repair, free of Hazardous Substances (as defined below) whether or not disclosed
by the study and report referred to in Section (b) below, and shall fully comply
with all lawful requirements and shall be constructed in accordance with Article

properly complete the same. For purposes hereof "punchlist items" shall be those
minor items,  the  incompletion  of which shall not impair  Tenant's  ability to
fixture and/or merchandise and operate the Leased Premises in the normal course.
None of the items  listed on Exhibit  "D"  (Walgreens  New Store  Requirements),
shall be considered  punchlist items and all of the same must be  satisfactorily
completed  prior to the date of delivery of possession of the Leased Premises to
Tenant.  Tenant  shall have the right,  without  being  deemed to have  accepted
possession, to enter upon the Leased Premises as soon hereafter as practical, to
take  measurements and install its fixtures and exterior signs  (including,  but
not limited to, the  installation  of permanent and temporary  signs),  but such
entry or the  opening  for  business  shall  not  constitute  a waiver as to the
condition  of the Leased  Premises or as to any work to be done or changes to be
made by  Landlord,  or as to any other  obligations  of Landlord  hereunder.  If
available from appropriate governmental authorities,  Landlord shall secure from
the  appropriate  governmental  authority  and  provide  to Tenant  prior to the
delivery of possession of the Leased Premises,  a Certificate of Occupancy (or a
Temporary  Certificate of Occupancy permitting occupancy pending the issuance of
a  Certificate  of  Occupancy  in  which  event  the  delivery  to  Tenant  of a
Certificate of Occupancy shall be deemed a condition subsequent) subject only to
those items to be completed by Tenant.

     (b) (i)  Landlord  represents  that other than as disclosed in that certain
report  dated  November  17, 1998  prepared by Sunbelt  Laboratories,  Inc.  and
entitled  "Phase  I  Environmental  Site  Assessment  for  Commercial  Property,
Northeast  corner of Intersection of Americas Avenue & Alameda Avenue,  El Paso,
El  Paso  County,  Texas  79836"  (the  "Report"),  Landlord  has  no  knowledge
concerning  any current or previous use of the land and/or  Building  comprising
the Leased  Premises  which  would  lead a  reasonable  person to  suspect  that
Hazardous Substances (as defined below) were deposited,  stored,  disposed of or
placed upon, about or under the Leased  Premises.  The report shall be certified
to Tenant prior to delivery of  possession of the Leased  Premises.  In order to
make to foregoing  representation,  Landlord states that it has made due inquiry
or investigation as appropriate.  Landlord has provided to Tenant, at Landlord's
sole cost and expense,  a copy of a Phase I Environmental  Report.  In the event
the Report  discloses the existence of any Hazardous  Substances in, on or under
the  Leased  Premises,  including,  but not  limited  to, the  existence  of any
underground storage tanks and/or petroleum or petroleum  by-products,  Landlord,
at  Landlord's  sole  cost and  expense,  prior to the  date  Landlord  delivers
possession  of the Leased  Premises  to Tenant,  as provided in Article 4, shall
properly  remove,  and dispose of any such  underground  storage tanks and shall
properly  remove and dispose of any  Hazardous  Substances  and/or  petroleum or
petroleum  by-products.  All such  disposal  and removal  shall be  conducted in
accordance  with all  federal,  state and local laws,  ordinances,  and rules or
regulations,  or other binding  determinations of any federal,  state, local, or
other  governmental   entity  exercising   executive,   legislative,   judicial,
regulatory,  or administrative functions (whether now or hereafter existing). In
the  event  of any  such  removal  and  disposal  by  Landlord  hereunder,  upon
completion  of the  same the  Leased  Premises  shall  again  be  tested  by the
environmental  engineer and/or  contractor and the results  delivered to Tenant;
Landlord shall also deliver in such event all necessary governmental inspections
and approvals with respect to the removal, remediation and disposal work. Tenant
shall have no obligation to accept delivery of possession of the Leased Premises
until  Landlord has complied  with the  provisions  of this  Section;  provided,
however,  that Tenant may, at Tenant's option,  accept  possession of the Leased
Premises prior to the completion of any remediation if Landlord  provides Tenant
with final remediation plans and Tenant determines that the effectuation of said
remediation  will not  adversely  impact  Tenant's full use and enjoyment of the
Leased Premises.


     (ii)  "Hazardous  Substances"  shall mean any hazardous or toxic  chemical,
waste,  byproduct,  pollutant,  contaminant,  compound,  product  or  substance,
including, without limitation,  asbestos,  polychlorinated byphenyls,  petroleum

(b) of Article 18.  Tenant's  acceptance of possession of the Leased Premises in
the absence of full satisfaction of said condition  precedent shall in no manner
be deemed a waiver thereof or of any of the requirements of Article 18.

                  (d) Landlord shall, prior to the delivery of possession of the
 Leased Premises to Tenant,  cause Landlord's architect to certify to Tenant the

The Building shall be of such exterior and structural design and character as is
acceptable  to  Tenant  and as will  also  meet  Tenant's  requirements  for its
permanent  exterior  signs,  which may extend above the Building and shall be at

shall comply with the requirements of public  authorities and shall be done in a
first-class,  good,  and  workmanlike  manner,  free and  clear of all liens and
encumbrances for labor and materials furnished to Landlord.  Except as otherwise

shall be on mylar or  vellum)  and  specifications  (collectively  the  "Plans")
prepared by Landlord shall be furnished to Tenant for Tenant's  approval  within

receipt of said fixture  plan and base sheets from  Tenant,  whichever is later.
All areas of design and  engineering  must be  certified by and under the direct
supervision of architects and engineers  licensed and registered in the State of
Texas. Tenant agrees to approve or reject said Plans, within thirty (30) days of
Tenant's  receipt  thereof,  and if not approved or rejected within said period,
said Plans shall be deemed approved. In the event Tenant shall reject such Plans
within the period  provided  above,  Tenant  shall return said Plans to Landlord
indicating  the items so rejected.  Landlord shall then have thirty (30) days to
resubmit  the Plans to Tenant,  and Tenant  shall  have  thirty  (30) days after
resubmittal  to approve or reject the same.  If not approved or rejected  within
said period, said Plans shall be deemed approved;  provided, however, that in no
event shall the  standards  of quality of  approved  Plans,  or of those  deemed
approved,  be less than  those  required  by the  Criteria  Plans  and  Criteria
Specifications above described,  which shall control. If said Plans are rejected
after  being  resubmitted  to  Tenant,  and the  parties  are unable to agree on
approved Plans within thirty (30) days thereafter,  then either party may cancel
this  Lease  upon  thirty  (30)  days  written  notice  to the  other.  Any such
cancellation  notice shall be null and void if the plans are approved during the
thirty (30) day notice period.






         After  approval of Plans,  Tenant,  at Tenant's  sole cost and expense,
 shall have the right to make changes,  substitutions  and  eliminations in said
 Plans  provided,  however,  that  Tenant  shall pay all costs and  expenses  on
 account of any such  changes,  substitutions  and  eliminations.  In  addition,
 Tenant  shall be solely  responsible  for  paying  all costs and  expenses  for
 changes,  substitutions and additional  requirements in the Plans which deviate
 from the  Criteria  Plans dated July 1998 and  further  detailed on Exhibit "C"
 attached hereto.  Landlord and Tenant agree to cooperate with each other and to
 diligently and in good faith make all reasonable modifications to keep the cost
 of the Building and  improvements  as economical as is reasonably  practicable.
 Landlord  shall,  at  Landlord's  sole  cost  and  expense,  obtain  all of the
 necessary  approvals  required under the Declaration  required to construct the
 Leased Premises in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Lease.

                   (c) As soon' as the final  Plans are  available  to  Landlord
 from  Architect  after  Tenant has  returned the final set of Plans to Landlord
 stamped  "approved as noted" pursuant to Section (b) of this Article but in any
 event prior to the  delivery of  possession  of the Leased  Premises to Tenant,
 Landlord  shall provide to Tenant a mylar sepia of the final Plans  prepared by
 Landlord as provided above.

                   (d)  All  Plans  shall  be  deemed  to  be  owned  by  Tenant
 regardless  of by whom  prepared;  Landlord  shall  take all  actions as may be
 appropriate or necessary at any time and from time to time in order to evidence
 such  ownership in Tenant.  Such Plans may be used by Tenant in their  approved
 form or as modified by Tenant in connection  with any  alteration or renovation
 of the Leased  Premises.  Landlord may use the Plans only in connection  with a
 Walgreens Drug Store.

     (e) Should a survey or title  commitment  reveal any utility  easements  or
setback  lines that must be  released  or  relocated  in order for  Landlord  to
construct the Leased  Premises,  it shall be an express  condition of this Lease
that such  utility  easements  or setback  lines be released or  relocated  in a
manner reasonably acceptable to Tenant.  Landlord shall provide to Tenant copies
of all documents relative thereto, and Tenant shall have no obligation to accept
delivery of possession of the Leased Premises until Landlord shall have complied
with the provisions of this Section.

 Landlord's  rights  shall be  limited to either the  immediate  termination  of
 Tenant's  occupancy or the treatment of Tenant's  occupancy as a month to month
 tenancy, any custom or law to the contrary notwithstanding. Tenant shall repair
 damage caused by the removal of Tenant's fixtures and equipment.

 DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

          17. (a) If any rent is due and remains  unpaid for ten (10) days after
 receipt  of  notice  from  Landlord,  or if  Tenant  breaches  any of the other
 covenants of this Lease and if such other breach continues for thirty (30) days
 after receipt of notice from Landlord,  Landlord shall then but not until then,
 as its sole legal  remedies  but in  addition  to its  remedies  in equity,  if
 available,  have  the  right  (a) to sue  for  rent,  (b) to  re-enter  without
 terminating  this Lease,  provided that Landlord  shall use its best efforts to
 relet the Leased  Premises for Tenant's  account and  otherwise to mitigate its
 damages (it being  expressly  understood  that Tenant shall remain  liable on a
 monthly basis for the difference  between what Tenant's  obligations under this
 Lease are and what Landlord-  actually  collects,  and further provided that if
 Landlord elects to re-enter without  terminating  this Lease,  this Lease shall
 nonetheless  expire as of the next  optional  termination  date as set forth in
 Article 3[d)), or (c) to terminate this Lease and re-enter the Leased Premises;
 but if Tenant  shall pay said rent within said ten (10) days,  or in good faith
 within  said  thirty  (30) days  commence  to correct  such other  breach,  and
 diligently proceed therewith, then Tenant shall not be considered in defau!t.

     (b) If Landlord shall from time to time fail to. pay any sum or sums due to
Tenant and if such  failure,  continues  for thirty  (30) days after  receipt of
notice  from  Tenant,  Tenant  shall  have the right  and is hereby  irrevocably
authorized  and  directed to deduct  such sum or sums from fixed and  percentage
rent  and  other  sums due  Landlord,  together  with  interest  thereon  at the
so-called  prime rate  charged from time to time by The First  National  Bank of
Chicago, or its successor, plus two per cent until fully reimbursed. If Landlord
shall from time to time fail to perform any act or acts  required of Landlord by
this Lease and if such failure  continues  for thirty (30) days after receipt of
notice from Tenant,  Tenant shall then have the right,  at Tenant's  option,  to
perform such act or acts, in such manner as Tenant deems  reasonably  necessary,
and the full  amount of the cost and expense so incurred  shall  immediately  be
owing by  Landlord  to  Tenant,  and  Tenant  shall have the right and is hereby
irrevocably  authorized  and  directed  to deduct  such  amount  from  fixed and
percentage rent and other sums due Landlord,  together with interest  thereon at
the so-called prime rate charged from time to time by The First National Bank of
Chicago, or its successor, plus two per cent until fully reimbursed. If Landlord
shall in good faith  within  said  thirty  (30) days  commence  to correct  such
breach, and diligently proceed therewith to completion,  then Landlord shall not
be considered in default.


                  (c) No delay on the part of either party in  enforcing  any of
 the  provisions  of this Lease shall be  considered  as a waiver  thereof.  Any
 consent or approval granted by either party under this Lease must be in writing
 and shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary the obtaining of consent
 or approval with respect to any subsequent act or omission for which consent is
 required or sought.

     (c) If as of the date of the  recordation  of the  Declaration,  the Leased
Premises,  or the  Adjoining  Property,  or any part  thereof  is subject to any

rights thereunder.



     (d) (i) If  required  by  Landlord's  institutional  lender,  Tenant  shall
subordinate the lien of this Lease to the lien of such mortgage  encumbering the
Leased Premises,  so long as such lender  simultaneously with such subordination

Non-Disturbance  and  Attornment  Agreement in form and substance  acceptable to
Tenant and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and  conditions of this Lease.

Lease, and to the best of Tenant's or Landlord's  knowledge,  whether or not the
other party is in default of this Lease.

                  (e) It is  understood  and agreed  that  Tenant  shall,  in no
 event,  be  obligated to accept  possession  of the Leased  Premises  until the
 Landlord has complied with the provisions of this Article.

          19. (a) Landlord,  prior to the Rent  Commencement  Date, shall make a
 mailing  address  change on the  property  tax  records  so that as of the Rent
 Commencement  Date the tax bill and tax  notices  for only the Leased  Premises
 will be mailed to Tenant at the  following  address:  Walgreen  Co., 300 Wilmot
 Road, Deerfield,  Illinois 60015, Attention: Tax Department.  Prior to the date
 that the tax bill is mailed directly to Tenant pursuant hereto, Landlord, prior
 to  delinquency,  shall  send to  Tenant a copy of the tax bill for the  Leased
 Premises if Tenant is obligated to pay for such taxes. In no event shall Tenant
 be required to pay real estate taxes pertaining to any period prior to the Rent
 Commencement Date or subsequent to the expiration or earlier termination of the
 Lease.

     (b) Upon receipt of the aforesaid tax bills, Tenant shall pay, when due and
before  delinquency,  the ad valorem  real estate taxes  (including  all special
benefit  taxes and special  assessments  but  excluding  so-called  impact fees)
levied and  assessed  against  the  Leased  Premises,  commencing  with the Rent
Commencement Date and continuing for the remainder of the Term. However,  the ad
valorem taxes levied or assessed for the year in which Tenant  commences  paying
fixed rent shall be prorated  between  Landlord  and Tenant so that Tenant shall
pay only such part  thereof as  pertains  to the period  commencing  on the Rent
Commencement  Date and ending  December 31st bears to such entire tax year,  and
the ad valorem  taxes  levied or assessed  for the year during  which this Lease
expires or is terminated  shall be prorated  between Landlord and Tenant so that
Tenant shall pay only such part thereof as the period  commencing on January 1st
and ending on the date this Lease expires or is  terminated.  Within thirty (30)
days after payment of any such taxes, or as soon thereafter as receipt bills are
available, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord photocopies of bills indicating such
payments.


          If  Landlord  is  required  to pay to its lender a monthly  escrow for
 taxes  levied and  assessed  against the Leased  Premises,  Tenant shall pay to
 Landlord  its pro rata  share of such taxes on a monthly  basis.  At the end of
 each tax year for which said taxes are levied, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant
 a  statement  from its lender and a copy of the paid tax bill as  furnished  to
 Landlord by its lender,  and any  overage  paid by Tenant to Landlord  shall be
 reimbursed to Tenant and any shortage shall be paid to Landlord.

                   (c) Tenant  shall have the right,  and is hereby  irrevocably
 authorized  and  directed  to  deduct  and  retain  amounts  payable  under the
 provisions  of this Article from  additional  percentage  rents  payable  under
 Section  (b) of  Article 2 for such tax year,  or in the  alternative,  if such
 taxes for any tax year are payable after  percentage rents under Section (b) of
 Article 2 for such tax year are  payable,  then Tenant  shall have no liability
 under this  Article to the  extent of such  percentage  rents paid for such tax
 year.  In such  event,  Landlord  shall  refund  to Tenant  the  amount of such
 overpayment of percentage rent.

                   (d) All special benefit taxes and special  assessments  shall
 be  spread  over  the  longest  time  permitted  and  Tenant's   liability  for
 installments of such special benefit taxes and special  assessments not yet due
 shall cease upon the expiration or termination of this Lease. In no event shall
 Tenant be  obligated to pay any impact fees whether or not billed by the taxing
 authority as a special benefit tax or a special assessment.

                   (e) (i) Tenant  shall have the right to contest the  validity
 or the amount of any tax or assessment  levied  against the Leased  Premises or
 any improvements thereon,  provided that Tenant shall not take any action which
 will cause or allow the  institution  of  foreclosure  proceedings  against the
 Leased  Premises.  Landlord  shall  cooperate  in the  institution  of any such
 proceedings  to contest the  validity  or amount of real estate  taxes and will
 execute any documents required therefor.

     (ii)  Landlord  covenants  and agrees that if there shall be any refunds or
rebates on account of any tax,  governmental  imposition  or levy paid by Tenant
under the  provisions  of this  Lease,  such  refund or rebate  shall  belong to
Tenant. Any such refunds or rebates which shall be received by Landlord shall be
held in trust for the benefit of Tenant and shall be  forthwith  paid to Tenant.
Landlord shall, on request of Tenant, sign any receipt which may be necessary to
secure the  payment of any such  refund or rebate,  and shall pay over to Tenant
such refund or rebate as received by Landlord.

     20.  Commencing with the Initial Term and continuing  until the last day of
the 240th month of the Term,  Tenant  shall carry an all risk fire and  extended
special  form  coverage  insurance  (which  shall  include all risk and extended
coverage)  covering  the  Building  and the  other  improvements  on the  Leased
Premises  to the  extent  of not  less  than  100% of  replacement  value,  less
foundations,  with companies which are authorized to do business in the State of
Texas and are governed by the regulatory  authority  which  establishes  maximum

carry (or  reimburse  Landlord  for the cost  thereof)  earthquake  and/or flood
insurance to the extent as may be reasonably  required and as customary for like
projects.  Commencing  with the first day of the 241st  month of the Term,  such
coverage  shall be on an actual cash value basis.  Tenant shall also procure and
continue in effect public  liability and property damage  insurance with respect
to the operation of the Leased Premises.  Such public liability  insurance shall
cover  liability  for death or  bodily  injury  in any one  accident,  mishap or
casualty in a sum of not less than $1,000,000.00,  and sha!l cover liability for
property  damage in one  accident,  mishap or casualty in the amount of not less
than $100,000.00.  The proceeds from Tenant's casualty insurance hereunder shall
be paid and  applied  only as set forth in  Article  14  hereof.  Any  insurance
carried or required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Lease , at Tenant's
option may, be carried under an insurance policy(ies),  self-insurance (provided
that Tenant or Tenant's parent company maintains a net worth of $300,000,000.00)
or pursuant to a master  policy of  insurance  or  so-called  blanket  policy of
insurance covering other locations of Tenant or its corporate affiliates, or any
combination thereof; provided,  however, that in the event Tenant carries any of
such  insurance  under any  policy,  Tenant  shall  have the right and is hereby
irrevocably  authorized  and  directed  to deduct and retain the amounts of said
premiums in any lease year from  percentage  rents  payable under Section (b) of
Article 2 for such lease year. Any requests for insurance  certificates shall be
sent to Tenant at 300 Wilmot Road, Insurance Department, Deerfield, IL 60015.

 MUTUAL INDEMNITY

          21.  Except  for  loss,  cost  and  expense  caused  by fire or  other
 casualty,  Landlord and Tenant shall each indemnify and hold harmless the other
 against and from any and all loss,  cost and expense  resulting  from their own
 respective  negligent acts and omissions or the negligent acts and omissions of
 their respective employees in the course of their employment.

 CONDEMNATION

          22.  If the  entire  Leased  Premises  shall  be taken  by  reason  of
 condemnation  or under  eminent  domain  proceedings,  Landlord  or Tenant  may
 terminate this Lease as of the date when  possession of the Leased  Premises is
 taken.  If a portion of the Leased Premises shall be taken under eminent domain
 or by  reason of  condemnation  and if in the  opinion  of  Tenant,  reasonably
 exercised,  the  remainder of the Leased  Premises  are no longer  suitable for
 Tenant's business, this Lease, at Tenant's option, to be exercised by notice to
 Landlord within sixty (60) days of such taking,  shall terminate;  any unearned
 rents paid or credited in advance shall be refunded to Tenant. If this Lease is
 not so terminated, Landlord forthwith and with due diligence, shall restore the
 Leased Premises.  Until so restored,  fixed rent shall abate to the extent that
 Tenant shall not be able to conduct business, and thereafter fixed rent for the
 remaining portion of the Term shall be proportionately reduced.

     Tenant shall be entitled to the award in connection  with any  condemnation
insofar as the same represents  compensation for or damage to Tenant's fixtures,
equipment,  leasehold improvements or other property, moving expenses as well as
the loss of leasehold (i.e. the unexpired  balance of the lease Term immediately
prior to such taking).  Landlord  shall be entitled to the award insofar as same
represents  compensation  for or damage to the fee  remainder.  Any mortgagee of
Landlord shall be compensated out of Landlord's award.

          For the  purposes of this  Article,  the term  "condemnation  or under
 eminent  domain  proceedings"  shall  include  conveyances  and grants  made in
 anticipation of or in lieu of such proceedings.

 BROKERAGE

          23. Landlord and Tenant  represent that they have dealt with no broker
 or agent with respect to this Lease.  Landlord hereby indemnifies and saves and
 holds  Tenant  harmless  against  any  claims  for  brokerage   commissions  or
 compensation or other claims of any kind (including  reasonable attorney's fees
 and  costs)  arising  out of the  negotiation  and  execution  of this Lease or
 Tenant's interest or involvement with respect to the Leased Premises.

 PREVAILING PARTY

          24.  In the  event  of  litigation  between  Landlord  and  Tenant  in
 connection  with this Lease,  the  reasonable  attorneys,  fees and court costs
 incurred  by the  party  prevailing  in such  litigation  shall be borne by the
 non-prevailing party.

          25.  All  notices  hereunder  shall be in  writing  and sent by United
 States certified or registered mail, postage prepaid,  or by overnight delivery
 service  providing  proof of receipt,  addressed if to  Landlord,  to the place
 where  rent  checks are to be Mailed,  and if to  Tenant,  to 200 Wilmot  Road,
 Deerfield,  Illinois 60015, Attention:  Law Department,  and a duplicate to the
 Leased  Premises,  provided  that each party by like notice may  designate  any
 future  or  different  addresses  to which  subsequent  notices  shall be sent.
 Notices shall be deemed given upon receipt or upon refusal to accept delivery.

 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

     26.  (a) From and after  the date  that is two (2) years  after the date of
this  Lease,  in the event  that  Landlord  shall  receive a Bona Fide  Offer to
purchase  the Leased  Premises at any time and from time to time during the Term
of this Lease or any  extensions  thereof  from any  person or entity,  Landlord
shall so notify Tenant (Attn: Law Department with a duplicate notice to the Real
Estate  Department)  together  with a true and  correct  copy of said  Bona Fide
Offer.  For purposes  hereof, a "Bona Fide Offer" shall be deemed to be one made
in writing by a person or entity that is not related or affiliated with Landlord
(or any of Landlord's Partners or principal owners) in which Landlord intends to
accept (subject to this Article)  otherwise known as a letter of intent.  Tenant
may,  at  Tenant's  option  and within ten (10)  working  days after  receipt of
Landlord's  notice of said Bona Fide Offer and receipt of a copy thereof,  offer
to purchase the Leased  Premises at the price and upon the terms and  conditions
as are contained in said Bona Fide Offer,  in which event,  Landlord  shall sell
the  Leased  Premises  to Tenant  upon said terms and  conditions  and that said
price; furthermore,  in such event, Landlord shall convey the Leased Premises to
Tenant by warranty deed.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  the price that Tenant
shall  pay for the  Leased  Premises  shall be  reduced  by an  amount  equal to
broker's fees or commissions (if any) that would have been payable by either the
purchaser of Landlord if the Leased Premises were sold pursuant to the said Bona
Fide Offer.  Landlord  shall provide  Tenant  evidence of the amount of broker's
fees or  commissions  payable  in  connection  with any such  Bona  Fide  Offer.
Landlord  covenants  that it shall  accept no such Bona Fide Offer or convey the
premises until it has complied with the terms of this Article. Any conveyance of
the Leased  Premises  made in the absence of full  satisfaction  of this Article
shall  be  void.  Tenant  may  enforce  this  Article,  without  limitation,  by
injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief.

                  (b)  Tenants  election  not to  exercise  any  right  of first
 refusal as provided for in this Article 26 shall not prejudice  Tenant's rights
 hereunder as to any future Bona Fide Offer. The terms and conditions  contained
 in this Article 26 shall be binding upon the heirs,  successors  and/or assigns
 of Landlord.

 TRANSFER OF TITLE

     27. (a) In the event  that  Landlord  conveys  its  interest  in the Leased
Premises to any other person or entity,  Tenant shall have no  obligation to pay
rents or any other charges under this Lease to any such transferee  until Tenant
has been notified of such conveyance and has received  satisfactory  evidence of
such conveyance together with a written direction from such transferee as to the
name and address of the new payee of rents and other  charges.  It is understood
and agreed that Tenant's withholding of rent and other charges until its receipt
of such satisfactory evidence shall not be deemed a default under this Lease.

                  (b) In the event  Landlord  sells its  interest  in the Leased
 Premises,  Landlord  shall be  relieved of any and all  liability  under any of
 Landlord's  covenants and  obligations contained in or derived from this Lease
 arising out of any act, occurrence,  or omission occurring thereafter,  and the
 assignee or  purchaser  at any such sale or any  subsequent  sale of the Leased
 Premises  or  assignment  of this  Lease,  shall be deemed  without any further
 agreement  between  the parties and any such  assignee  or  purchaser,  to have
 assumed and agreed to carry out any and all of the covenants and obligations of
 Landlord under this I-ease.

 RENT TAX

          28.  In the  event  that any  governmental  authority  imposes  a tax,
 charge,  assessment or other  imposition upon tenants in general which is based
 upon the rents  payable  under this  Lease,  Tenant  shall pay the same to said
 governmental authority or to Landlord if Landlord is responsible to collect the
 same (in which case Landlord  shall remit the same in a timely manner and, upon
 request  of  Tenant,  evidence  to Tenant  said  remittance).  Tenant is hereby
 authorized  and  directed  to  deduct  the  amount  of  such  taxes,   charges,
 assessments  or  impositions  from  additional  percentage  rents payable under
 Section  (b) of Article 2 for such lease  year or, 'n the  alternative,  in the
 event that such imposition or a portion thereof is due after percentage  rents,
 payable  under  Section (b) of Article 2 have been paid,  Tenant  shall have no
 liability under this Article to the extent that percentage rents for said lease
 year have been  paid.  Nothing  contained  herein  shall be deemed to  obligate
 Tenant with respect to any income, inheritance or successor tax or imposition.

 MISCELLANEOUS

     29. (a)  Captions of the several  Articles  contained in this Lease are for
convenience  only and do not  constitute  a part of this Lease and do not limit,
affect or construe the contents of such Articles.

                  (b) If any  provision  of  this  Lease  shall  be  held  to be
 invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
 the remaining provisions shall in no way be affected or impaired thereby.

                  (c) If the  Landlord is  comprised  of more than one person or
 entity, the obligations imposed on Landlord under this Lease shall be joint and
 several.

                  (d) All provisions of this Lease have been  negotiated by both
 parties at arm's length and neither party shall be deemed the scrivener of this
 Lease.  This Lease shall not be construed for or against either party by reason
 of the authorship or alleged authorship of any provision hereof.

                  (e)   This   instrument   shall   merge   all    undertakings,
 representations,  understandings,  and  agreements  whether  oral  or  written,
 between  the  parties  hereto  with  respect  to the  Leased  Premises  and the
 provisions of this Lease and shall constitute the entire Lease unless otherwise
 hereafter modified by both parties in writing.

                  (f) This instrument  shall also bind and benefit,  as the case
 may require,  the heirs, legal  representatives,  assigns and successors of the
 respective  parties,  and  all  covenants,  conditions  and  agreements  herein
 contained  shall  be  construed  as  covenants  running  with  the  land.  This
 instrument  shall not become  binding upon the parties until it shall have been
 executed and delivered by both Landlord and Tenant.

                  (g) Landlord has been afforded a full and fair  opportunity to
 seek advice from legal counsel and Landlord acknowledges that Tenant's attorney
 represents Tenant and not Landlord.

                   (h)  Notwithstanding  any  provision  of  this  Lease  to the
 contrary,  the Term shall  commence,  if at all, not later than twenty-one (21)
