Envision is attempting to position itself as a next generation eBusiness professional services firm delivering innovative products and services for a wide range of eCommerce applications. Envision was created on February 10, 2000 through a plan of merger among perfumania.com, inc. ("perfumania.com"), the Company and EDC Sub Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (see description of reorganization below). The Company performed the reorganization to demonstrate its new mission to provide breakthrough technologies through its delivery platform as an eBusiness professional services firm. On January 7, 1999, perfumania.com was created as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Perfumania, Inc. (former parent company of perfumania.com prior to the reorganization). Perfumania, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of E Com Ventures, Inc. Since its inception, perfumania.com has operated an online store that specializes in the sale of fragrances, fragrance related products and bath and body products on a retail and wholesale basis. perfumania.com offers retail customers over 1,700 products at price discounts, including hard-to-find and discontinued brands. The business-to-business component of the online store offers products on a wholesale basis to the largely underserved market of smaller specialty retailers. Users can easily browse and locate products using perfumania.com's search engines. The online store offers personalized customer service, secure ordering, numerous shipping options and fast delivery. On September 29, 1999, perfumania.com completed its initial public offering and received proceeds of approximately $16,100,000, net of $1,400,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions, from the sale of 2,500,000 shares of its common stock. perfumania.com used approximately $3,344,000 of the proceeds to repay advances from Perfumania, Inc. Additionally, perfumania.com incurred approximately $496,000 in other costs in connection with the offering. On January 11, 2000, a change in control of perfumania.com (before the reorganization described below) occurred when Alta Limited exercised an option to purchase from Perfumania, Inc., 2,000,000 shares of common stock of perfumania.com at a price of $6.00 per share pursuant to an Option Agreement, dated December 10, 1999, among Perfumania, Inc., Alta Limited and the optionees who are signatories thereto. In connection with such exercise, Alta nominated two directors to the Board of Directors of perfumania.com (before the reorganization) and an additional four directors were added by the Board of Directors effective upon the expiration of the waiting requirements of Rule 14f-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the Option Agreement, Alta has a second option to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock of Envision at a price of $8.00 per share on or prior to the earlier to occur of December 31, 2000 or various other events, as defined in the Agreement. On February 10, 2000, perfumania.com, consummated a reorganization through a plan of merger among the combination of perfumania.com, the Company and EDC Sub, Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The plan of merger provided for, among other things, the merger of EDC Sub, Inc. with perfumania.com, with perfumania.com as the surviving corporation. As a result, perfumania.com became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Envision. In addition, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of perfumania.com issued and outstanding before the reorganization was converted into and exchanged for one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Envision. Consequently, shareholders of perfumania.com became shareholders of Envision and ceased to be shareholders of perfumania.com. Pursuant to Florida Statutes, shareholder approval of this reorganization was not required, and the reorganization was tax free for federal income tax purposes to perfumania.com's shareholders. In connection with the aforementioned reorganization of Envision on February 14, 2000, perfumania.com common stock ceased to be publicly traded, and instead, Envision common stock began trading on the American Stock Exchange, Inc. under the new ticker symbol "EDV." In accordance with Florida law, 2 4 certificates representing shares of Envision common stock were exchanged for certificates of perfumania.com common stock soon thereafter. On March 10, 2000, Envision signed a First Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger among Envision, Envision Acquisition Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Envision, perfumania.com, Envision Development Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation ("Envision Mass") and certain stockholders of Envision Mass to acquire all of the outstanding stock of Envision Mass. This transaction is subject to approval by shareholders of Envision. On April 7, 2000, Envision acquired approximately 80% of the voting stock of Qui Vive, Inc. ("Qui Vive"), a Delaware corporation, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Stock Acquisition Agreement (the "Stock Acquisition Agreement"), dated March 31, 2000, among Envision, QV Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Envision, Sundog Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and RockMountain Ventures Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership. Pursuant to this Stock Acquisition Agreement, on April 7, 2000, Envision issued shares of its common stock in order to acquire shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock of Qui Vive. Envision will issue additional shares of its common stock to complete the acquisition of the 80% of the voting stock of Qui Vive subject to Envision's shareholder approval. Qui Vive, which does business as QVtech, has no significant operations except for the development of its proprietary "Interosa" technology. This technology provides security features to e-mail communications. On April 10, 2000, Envision entered into an Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Agreement with VP IP, a Delaware corporation. Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, Envision acquired the software and URL of VP IP. In exchange, Envision issued 200,000 shares of its common stock to the owners of VP IP which included William Patch, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Envision, and his immediate family and Alex Adamopoulos, an officer of Envision. Envision does not presently have any significant operations itself or through any other subsidiary, except for the operations of perfumania.com. The principal executive offices of Envision are 4 Mount Royal Avenue, Malboro, Massachusetts 01752. The telephone number is (508) 481-8303. BUSINESS OF ENVISION Envision was formed in February 2000 pursuant to the reorganization previously described. Since its inception, Envision has sought to deliver innovative, transactive eBusiness solutions so that customers can achieve transformational breakthroughs into the Internet economy. Envision's customer value proposition encompasses extending marketing reach, automating sales and support functions, automating the supply chain, and enhancing overall business activities. Envision seeks to deliver these benefits with a services/products spectrum including eBusiness Consulting, eBusiness System Development, eMarketing, Application Licensing and through its IsoStructuretm platform. In conjunction with these services and products, Envision is currently seeking to be a leader in transactive technologies that protect, secure and manage Internet document exchange as a part of the eBusiness solution. MARKET OPPORTUNITY Envision participates in one of the fastest growing categories of eBusiness, the eBusiness Solution Provider sector. This sector is responding to the growth in the Internet's Business-to-Business ("B2B") market, which is expected to reach $2.7 trillion by 2004, according to a leading technology industry research firm. The Internet presents opportunities to transform businesses and entire industries and has allowed businesses to identify new product and service offerings which extend and complement their core markets. As a result, these opportunities are creating a significant and growing demand for Internet services as organizations are investing in Internet solutions to transform their core business and technology strategies. Envision believes that as businesses race to achieve the transcendent opportunities and increased operating efficiencies made possible by Internet technology, they will increasingly seek to outsource their eBusiness 3 5 activities to eBusiness solution providers that not only offer expertise, but even more importantly, the speed to help them win in their industry. For this reason, Envision believes there is strong demand for professional services to assist companies in developing eBusiness strategies and to design and implement innovative eBusiness solutions that transform key business processes and provide competitive advantages. The Company further believes that few companies today have the combination of expertise in eBusiness strategy development, market reach and automation of sales and support functions and the supply chain required for the development and implementation of such solutions. Strategy Envision's strategy is formulated on the premise that organizations wishing to participate in the Internet economy are increasingly turning to eBusiness experts. These organizations wish not only to tap into the expertise and innovative skills that are needed to create and deploy competitive and timely eBusiness systems, but even more importantly, the eBusiness and eMarketing savvy to make their companies successful in the Internet economy. Envision's strategy in response to this need is to develop core competencies in eBusiness Consulting/Development, Application Licensing and the IsoStructure(TM) platform. Productization would simplify the delivery of eBusiness features while increasing Envision's gross margin and erecting a competitive barrier to other eBusiness competitors. The three core eBusiness competencies which Envision believes are critical to becoming a leader in eBusiness are: eBusiness Consulting/Development -- Services include eBusiness Strategy Definition and Planning, Peer Web Audits, Internet Advisory Services. These services assist companies in understanding where eBusiness opportunities exist and helps them develop a roadmap for eBusiness implementation. The Development services include front-end website design for a high-performance website. While the website's front is visible to the user, the back-end services are what really powers a highly functional eBusiness website. Back-end services include database and transaction support. Application Service Provider (ASP) -- The Application Service Provider sector is an explosive marketplace enabling companies to leverage software applications rapidly and at a very competitive cost. Envision's approach to this segment is to provide both productized and customized applications to the client that meet their requirements, deliver value and allow for a competitive advantage. IsoStructure(TM) -- Envision's vision is to bring together breakthrough technologies it incubates and deliver them within a unified platform that can be entirely leveraged by its clients. IsoStructure(TM) would represent such a platform and transforms the manner in which customers interact with web applications today by providing a breakthrough combination of technologies within a single, secure and unified platform. Products If Envision succeeds in its acquisition of Envision Mass, it will acquire the following trademarked terms which will be used to describe the various modules of our web development strategy. InternetPowered(TM) products -- Specific productization opportunities emerge in the designing and implementing of a variety of Internet business solutions across diverse industries. Envision believes that a company's website does not have to be a completely custom implementation. For example, many companies want their website to include, among other things, press releases, trade show calendars, news articles, job postings and fresh content on the home page. Envision also believes that it is in the best interests of its customers to be able to easily update website content so as to create reasons for visitors to return to the website. With these goals in mind, Envision, if it is successful in its acquisition of Envision Mass, plans to develop a series of website plug-in modules, collectively known as InternetPowered(TM) products. The use of the products and trademarks stated above is contingent upon the acquisition of Envision Mass. 4 6 InternetPowered(TM) products would simplify the website sales-cycle by providing predefined modules of website functionality at published prices. These products include: - InternetPowered(TM) PressRoom - InternetPowered(TM) Events - InternetPowered(TM) Employment Recruitment - InternetPowered(TM) Collaborative Forum - InternetPowered(TM) Articles - InternetPowered(TM) HomePage - InternetPowered(TM) Content Administrator IsoStructure(TM) -- IsoStructure(TM) is an information exchange platform that allows clients focused on business-to-business services to rapidly implement a set of transactive technologies. IsoStructure(TM) leverages today's approved industry standards and emerging ones, such as XML (Extensible Markup Language), XFDL (Extensible Forms Data Language), HDML (Handheld Device Markup Language) and WAP (Wireless Application Protocol). These platform capabilities represent a breakthrough in traditional exchange applications through the incorporation of major industry advancements in technology. These advancements represent the secure architectures represented by legally binding documentation, policy-based email management, operating system level security to strengthen the transaction layer and the extended information platform to a wireless device utilizing SSL to secure the transmission. Presently these technologies are all stand alone applications that the market is demanding. Envision's IsoStructure(TM) is expected to bring these advancements together with a competitive advantage to the market. Interosa technology -- Envision, through its subsidiary Qui Vive, developer of the proprietary "Interosa" technology for secure e-mail communications, will complement its product line by providing secure encrypted e-mails. Interosa would assist senders in keeping e-mails in context by allowing senders to apply policies which determine the behavior of a message. Policies can determine who can open an e-mail, when they can open it, and what they can do with it. Messages are encrypted at all times, and can only be decrypted when their policies are satisfied. Unlike encrypted delivery systems, in which protection ends when the document arrives, Interosa policies protect not only the transport of the message, but also its use, for the entire life of the message. Senders may choose policies when they compose a message. When the message is sent, Interosa encrypts the policies together with the message and sends it as a standard MIME e-mail. Interosa policies make e-mail safe for business communication. Interosa assists any company in ensuring that internal corporate dialogs remain internal. E-mail protection facilitates strategic partnerships in which high value information must be exchanged between companies. Interosa also promotes effective brainstorming, by assuring participants that off-the-cuff ideas won't be archived. Interosa speeds the exchange of ideas because senders do not have to compose messages that are understandable outside the intended context. Policies in Interosa's first release will enable a sender to: - Password protect messages so they can only be opened with the required password, - Expire messages so they cannot be decrypted after a specified date and time, - Keep internal e-mail internal, by preventing decryption outside the sender's domain, - Prevent unencrypted forwarding outside the recipient's company for messages exchanged between Interosa-enabled businesses, - Prevent e-mail contents from being copied or pasted, - Prevent messages from being printed, and 5 7 - Ensure messages are stored encrypted at all times and that a decrypted view only occurs when the policies allow. Partnerships Envision's partnership strategy leverages its sales and marketing reach through mutually beneficial partnerships with other companies. Partnerships multiply our sales force reach through the efforts of partner sales personnel. Simply stated, the goal is to funnel in highly qualified leads for Envision to turn into revenue. A secondary benefit is increased market credibility for Envision by virtue of the association with market leading companies. Competition Competitors are organized into five categories -- (1) eBusiness Solution Providers, (2) web design shops, (3) system integrators, (4) major consulting firms and (5) advertising firms. Risk Factors -- Related to Envision's Business Limited Operating History. perfumania.com was founded in January 1999 to sell fragrance and cosmetics online, and, in September 1999, had its initial public offering. On February 10, 2000, perfumania.com reorganized into a holding company structure whereby perfumania.com is now the wholly-owned subsidiary of Envision. Envision currently has limited operations other than perfumania.com. Accordingly, Envision has no operating history upon which to evaluate its performance. Envision has not been in its currently contemplated business long enough to enable a stockholder to make a reasonable judgment as to its future performance. The likelihood of its success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with a developing business and the competitive environment in which Envision will operate. Many of these risks are described in more detail in this section. Envision may not successfully address these risks. If they do not successfully address these risks, the business will be seriously harmed. Envision Business Model is Unproven. Envision's strategy is based on an unproven business model. Its business model depends on the acceptance of the Internet for business-to-business transactions and the ability of Envision's technology to continue evolving and gain wide spread acceptance. Expansion through Acquisitions of Other Businesses and Technologies. The acquisitions described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K involve a number of special problems including: difficulty assessing technologies; operations and personnel; diversion of management attention in connection with both the negotiation of the investments and possible integration of the assets; strain on the managerial and operational resources as management tries to oversee larger operations; dilution of currently outstanding securities; and the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets. Envision's future operating results will depend significantly on its ability to manage growth and integrate acquisitions. Envision may not be able to address these problems successfully. Expenses may also increase due to the potential effect of goodwill amortization and other charges resulting from acquisitions described herein and in the future. If any of these and other expenses are not accompanied by increased revenue, our losses will be greater than anticipated. No Assurance of Availability of Personnel. Envision has not hired all of the personnel necessary to implement our business plan. Envision is dependent upon its ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. There is intense competition for qualified personnel in its business. Although Envision believes that such personnel will be available and attainable at reasonable compensation levels, no assurance can be given that Envision will be able to attract and retain the qualified personnel necessary for the development of our business. 6 8 Risk Factors-Related to the Internet Industry Business-to-Business E-commerce. Envision relies on the Internet for the success of its businesses. The development of the e-commerce market is in its early stages. If widespread commercial use of the Internet does not develop, or if the Internet does not develop as an effective medium for providing products and services, Envision will not succeed. Competition. Competition for Internet products and services is intense. As the market for business-to-business e-commerce grows, Envision expects that competition will intensify. Barriers to entry are minimal, and competitors can offer products and services at a relatively low cost. Some companies may have access to greater resources than Envision. Future Government Regulations Affecting the Internet. With the exception of regulations applicable to businesses generally, Envision is not currently subject to direct regulation by any government agency. Due to increasing popularity and use of the Internet, however, it is possible that a number of laws may be adopted with respect to the Internet in the future, covering issues such as user privacy, pricing of goods and services, and types of products and services offered. An example of the kind of laws which may be adopted to cover the use of the Internet is the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The Telecommunications Act prohibited the transmission over the Internet of certain types of information. Although certain provisions of the Telecommunications Act were held unconstitutional, similar laws may be enacted in the future. Other nations, including Germany, have taken similar actions to restrict the free flow of information deemed to be objectionable on the Internet. Additionally, certain telecommunications carriers continue to advocate that telecommunications over the Internet should be regulated by the Federal Communications Commission in the same manner as other telecommunications services. These telecommunications carriers want to see the government eliminate the current exemption from payment of telecommunications access charges for Internet service providers. If the government adopts any additional laws or regulations covering the use of the Internet, such actions could decrease the growth of the Internet. Any such reduction in the growth of the Internet may cause the value of our equity holdings to decrease and may negatively affect the companies which use our services. This could cause the demand for our services to be significantly reduced and raise the cost to us in providing those services. The cost to us of providing our services also may be increased if existing U.S. state and federal laws and foreign laws governing issues such as commerce, taxation, property ownership, defamation and personal privacy are increasingly applied to the Internet. Rapid Change in Technology and Distribution Channels Related to the Internet. The market for Envision's Internet products and services are characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent new product and service introductions, shifting distribution channels, and changing customer demands. Envision's future success will depend on its ability to adapt to this rapidly changing marketplace. Envision may not be able to adequately adapt products and services or acquire new products and services that can compete successfully. Envision may not be able to establish and maintain effective distribution channels for its services. Failure to maintain competitive product and service offerings or effective distribution channels could have an adverse effect on Envision's business, results of operations and financial condition. To respond to the rapid technological changes occurring in Internet services, Envision may have to spend substantial amounts of money, and there is no guarantee that such expenditures will yield a positive investment return. Internet Security Risks. The secure transmission of confidential information over public telecommunications facilities is a significant barrier to electronic commerce and communications on the Internet. Many factors may cause compromises or breaches of security systems used by us and other Internet sites to protect proprietary information. A compromise of security on the Internet would materially negatively affect the use of the Internet for commerce and communications. This in turn would negatively affect our business. Circumvention of Envision's security measures could result in misappropriation of our proprietary information or cause interruptions of Envision's operations. Protecting against the threat of such security breaches may require us to expend significant amounts of capital and other resources. There can be no assurance that Envision's security measures will prevent security breaches. 7 9 Infrastructure of the Internet. The success of commercial use of the Internet depends in large part upon the development and maintenance of the Internet's infrastructure, including the development of complementary products such as various broadband technologies. The number of users of the Internet and the amount of traffic on the Internet has grown significantly and is expected to continue to grow. To the extent the number of users of the Internet and the amount of traffic on the Internet continue to increase there will be greater demands placed on the Internet's infrastructure. The Internet infrastructure may not be able to support the demands placed on it by this continued growth without the performance or reliability of the Internet being decreased. Any outages or delays in services could lower the level of Internet usage. In addition, the infrastructure and complementary products and services necessary to make the Internet a viable commercial marketplace may not develop. If usage of the Internet is curtailed due to infrastructure constraints or lack of complementary products, Envision expects an adverse impact on our business and revenues. Even if such infrastructure and complimentary products and services do develop, there can be no guarantee that the Internet will become a viable commercial marketplace for products and services such as those offered by Envision. Risk Factors -- Related to Control of Envision Stockholders of Envision. Upon completion of the contemplated acquisitions, the ownership interest of Envision's current shareholders will be diluted. While certain shareholders will continue to beneficially own or control a large amount of the outstanding shares of our common stock, one shareholder of Envision Mass and a former shareholder of Qui Vive will become holders of more than 5% of Envision common stock. Board of Directors of Envision. ZERO.NET, Inc., ("ZERO.NET") a busines-to-business internet holding company is the largest stockholder of the Company with 35.9% of the Envision's shares of common stock. BUSINESS OF perfumania.com As a subsidiary of Envision, perfumania.com operates an online store that specializes in the sale of fragrances, fragrance related products and bath and body products on a retail and wholesale basis. perfumania.com launched its online store in February 1999 and offers retail customers over 1,700 products at significant price discounts, including hard-to-find and discontinued brands. The business-to-business component of the online store offers products on a wholesale basis to the largely underserved market of smaller specialty retailers. Users can easily browse and locate products using perfumania.com's search engines. The online store offers personalized customer service, secure ordering, numerous shipping options and fast delivery. One of Envision's shareholders is Perfumania, Inc., a leading discount fragrance retailer that operates a chain of approximately 280 specialty fragrance stores. Envision's relationship with Perfumania, Inc. provides perfumania.com with the following advantages: - exclusive online use of the highly recognized Perfumania brand name, - cross marketing our online store with Perfumania, Inc., - access to Perfumania, Inc.'s extensive supply relationships, and - Perfumania, Inc.'s considerable fragrance industry experience and expertise. Industry Background Growth of the Internet and E-Commerce. The Internet has emerged as a global medium, enabling millions of people to share information, communicate and conduct business electronically. A leading technology research firm estimates that the number of worldwide Web users will grow to approximately 320 million by the end of 2002. This rapid growth represents a significant opportunity for businesses to advertise and sell products online to both consumers and businesses. Business-to-consumer online transactions were approximately $8.0 billion in 1998 and it is anticipated that online consumer transactions will increase to approximately $60.2 billion by 2003. A leading technology 8 10 research firm estimates that businesses bought and sold approximately $145.0 billion in goods over the Internet in 1999 and predicts that business-to-business e-commerce will grow to approximately $3.95 trillion by 2003. The Fragrance Industry. The traditional retail fragrance industry is fragmented with different competitive strategies used throughout. The industry includes upscale department stores which compete based on advertising and promotions, not on price, specialty retailers which compete based on pricing, and mass-market retailers and drug stores which emphasize convenience purchasing. Management believes that traditional fragrance retailers face a number of challenges in providing a satisfying shopping experience for consumers: - The number of SKUs and the amount of product inventory that a traditional retailer can carry in a store is constrained by the store's physical space, thereby limiting selection. - Limited shelf space and store layout constraints limit the merchandising flexibility of traditional retailers. - Due to the significant costs of carrying inventory in multiple store locations, traditional retailers focus their product selection on the most popular products that produce the highest inventory turns, thereby further limiting consumer selection. The unique characteristics of the Internet provide a number of advantages for retail and wholesale fragrance sellers. Online sellers are able to display a larger number of products than traditional store-based or catalog sellers at a lower cost. In addition, online sellers are able to frequently adjust their featured selections, editorial content and pricing, providing significant merchandising flexibility. Online sellers also benefit from the minimal cost to conduct business on the Internet, the ability to reach a large group of customers from a central location, and the potential for low-cost customer interaction. Unlike traditional channels, online sellers do not have the burdensome costs of managing and maintaining a retail store infrastructure or the significant printing and mailing costs of catalogs. Online sellers can also easily obtain demographic and behavioral data about customers, increasing opportunities for direct marketing and personalized services. Because brand loyalty is a primary factor influencing a fragrance purchase, a customer's presence at the point-of-sale and ability to physically sense the fragrance product are not critical to the purchasing decision. Shopping at the Online Store perfumania.com's online store provides its retail and wholesale customers with superior features, pricing and convenience. Browsing. The online store offers visitors several special features arranged in simple, easy-to-use formats intended to enhance product search, selection and discovery. By clicking on the permanently displayed products and product categories, users can move directly to the Web page that contains details about the particular products. Users can quickly browse promotions, such as perfumania.com's perfume of the month and other featured products. In addition, customers can browse the online store by linking to specially designed pages dedicated to products from well known national and specialty brands.

Technology perfumania.com believes that it uses an advanced e-commerce platform. perfumania.com believes that its platform will allow it to grow rapidly while providing reliable, secure, and cost-effective e-commerce solutions. Its online store is hosted by USinternetworking in Annapolis, Maryland. perfumania.com's web site uses a Microsoft NT Server platform which was developed using the latest Microsoft technology to optimize the conducting of business online. perfumania.com has taken steps to prevent the failure of its mission-critical business applications. Routers, switches, firewalls, and servers associated with its Web sites are all deployed with backup or stand-by components so that it has at least six different paths to the Internet. perfumania.com's Web site uses USinternetworking's total security architecture. This architecture is specially designed and built to deliver Web-enabled enterprise applications and ensures that customer information is protected and that transactions are conducted securely over the Internet. USinternetworking has taken significant measures to provide customers with secure application hosting services. The security architecture is a layered approach that addresses security at every layer from the application down to the physical wire and ensures the primary aspects of security of confidentiality, integrity, and availability are addressed and that customer information is secure. perfumania.com's technology allows it to avoid Internet congestion as it has secured direct access to each of the six major Internet backbones in the U.S. This enables its customers to achieve LAN-like speeds for over 80% of all Internet connections, which makes roundtrip performance up to four times faster than can be achieved using traditional Internet service provider network architectures. The Web site's workload is distributed over a web server and a database server, both high-end Compaq machines. With this solution, perfumania.com can rapidly achieve its goal of implementing a fully scalable and a robust e-commerce Web site without investing in hardware, software, servers, or infrastructure. If, in the future, it becomes necessary to increase the capacity of the Web site, USinternetworking can easily do this for perfumania.com by adding new hardware. With a file replication system in place, identical Web sites can easily be hosted on multiple Web servers. With the addition of a Cisco Local Director switch, the workload can be dynamically balanced across the different Web servers. The high-performance switch is equipped with a failure mechanism that eliminates all points of failure for the Web server platform. Credit cards are authorized and processed securely using Cybercash, which handles the authorization in real time, while the shopper is online. If the authorization is successful, the user is presented with an order confirmation message and number, and the order information is written to a database at USinternetworking. Using perfumania.com's software package's accounting, merchandising and warehousing modules, fulfilling orders and running other aspects of the business is an efficient process. RF scanning technology is used when receiving goods from vendors, fulfilling orders and conducting inventory counts, making these processes more accurate and efficient. Its system prints packing slips and shipping labels and directs the fulfillment team to conduct efficient product picking and packing using the RF scanners' LED readout. Once the order is fulfilled and shipped, the customer is e-mailed a confirmation. perfumania.com's software package is capable of scaling very high, often running businesses much larger than itself. Competition perfumania.com's competition includes: - nationally known discount fragrance retailers such as Perfumania, Inc.; - competition from other retailers who seek to purchase high demand or limited supply products; 11 13 - web sites maintained by online retailers of fragrances and fragrance related products including fragrancecounter.com and fragrancenet.com; and - catalog retailers of fragrances and fragrance related products. perfumania.com believes that its ability to compete depends upon many factors, including: - the market acceptance of its online store and services; - the success of sales and marketing efforts; - the performance and reliability of its services; - the price of its products; and - the effectiveness of our customer service and support efforts. perfumania.com's competitors may be larger than itself and may have substantially greater financial, distribution and marketing resources. In addition, its competitors may be able to secure products from vendors on more favorable terms, fulfill customer orders more efficiently and adopt more aggressive pricing or inventory availability policies than perfumania.com can. Traditional retailers also enable customers to see, feel, and smell products in a manner that is not possible over the Internet. Some online competitors, including fragrancenet.com and fragrancecounter.com, may be able to use the Internet as a marketing medium to reach significant numbers of potential customers more effectively that perfumania.com can. perfumania.com's wholesale competitors may have more established distribution channels than perfumania.com and may have entered into exclusive supply arrangements with retailers who constitute part of perfumania.com's potential wholesale market. These factors may preclude perfumania.com from competing effectively in the wholesale fragrance distribution market. EMPLOYEES As of April 27, 2000, Envision employed 53 full-time employees.

15 17 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the Notes thereto which appear elsewhere in this Annual Report Form 10-K. GENERAL perfumania.com was incorporated in January 1999 and launched its online store in February 1999. Operations during the period from January 7, 1999 through January 30, 1999 (the "Inception Period") resulted in net sales of $0 and a net loss of $274,000. For the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, net sales and net loss totaled $2.3 million and $5.2 million, respectively. The loss during the inception period was attributable to the developmental nature of the business during the start-up phase. Perfumania, Inc. financed our operations from our inception on January 7, 1999 through the initial public offering in September 1999. These results are not indicative of the results that would have resulted had perfumania.com been operating as a separate stand-alone company during the periods presented. Since our inception, perfumania.com has incurred significant losses. Management believes that our operating expenses will significantly increase as a result of the financial commitments related to the development of marketing channels, future strategic relationships and other capital expenditures projected in developing the professional service. Management expects to incur losses and generate negative cash flow from operations for the foreseeable future. Our profitability primarily depends upon our ability to substantially increase revenues from professional consulting services. In view of the rapidly changing nature of our business and our limited operating history, management believes that our historical operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. 16 18 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our results of operations in dollar and percentage of sales terms. OPERATIONS STATEMENT DATA:

- --------------- * Percentage of net sales is not meaningful due to $0 revenue for the inception period. 17 19 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JANUARY 29, 2000 COMPARED TO THE INCEPTION PERIOD Net sales. Net sales includes the sale of our fragrances and fragrance related products, net of discounts and returns. Net sales for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 were $2,290,100. There were no sales during the inception period. During the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, net sales included $378,000 of wholesale sales. The resulting net sales for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 were attributable to the launch of the online store subsequent to the inception period. Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold consists primarily of the cost of merchandise sold plus shipping costs. Cost of goods sold for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 was $1,832,100. There was no cost of goods sold during the inception period. During the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, cost of goods sold included $215,000 of wholesale sales. The resulting cost of good sold for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 was attributable to the launch of the online store subsequent to the inception period. Gross profit. For the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, gross profit was $458,100 or 20.0% of net sales compared to $0 during the inception period. Gross profit for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, included $163,000 of gross profit from perfumania.com's wholesale division, representing 7.1% of net sales. General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consist of payroll and related expenses for executive, accounting and administrative personnel, recruiting, professional fees and other general corporate expenses. General and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 increased to $3,234,900 from $60,200 for the inception period. The increase was attributable to the hiring of additional personnel to support the growth of Envision, the payment of approximately $600,000 in compensation following the termination of employment of the previous chief executive officer, sign-on bonuses of $322,900 for three of its executive officers and increased professional fees, as well as the length of the inception period compared to the full year of results being reported in 2000. General and administrative expenses will continue to increase as our staff expands and incurs additional costs to support the growth of the business. Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses consist of expenditures related to advertising and promotion. Marketing and advertising expenses for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 increased to $1,548,700 from $32,900 for the inception period. During February 1999, perfumania.com began a cross-marketing campaign with Perfumania, Inc. that it intends to continue. perfumania.com expects to expand its marketing efforts and, as a result, it is expected that marketing expenses will continue to increase. Web site development expenses. Web site development expenses consist principally of expenses for development of our Web site, network operations and systems and telecommunications infrastructure. Web site development expenses for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 increased to $196,700 from $18,100 for the inception period. This amount reflects the staffing and associated costs related to building and enhancing our online store and transaction-processing systems, as well as our investment in systems and telecommunications infrastructure. Web site development expenses are expected to increase as perfumania.com continues to enhance its online store and expand our staff. Consulting fees. Consulting fees consist primarily of amounts paid to various technical and managerial consultants for services provided in the development of perfumania.com. For the period from January 7, 1999 to January 30, 1999, consulting fees were $130,000. Consulting fees for the year ended January 29, 2000, amounted to $277,200. Management fees to affiliate. Management fees consist primarily of expenses, which have been allocated to perfumania.com by Perfumania, Inc., for costs associated with resources it shares. These fees consist primarily of the pro-rata cost of rent, utilities and facilities maintenance. Management fees for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 increased to $433,700 from $29,600 for the inception period. The increase was attributable to the increase in resources necessary to support the growth of the perfumania.com. Effective May 1, 1999, perfumania.com and Perfumania, Inc. entered into an intercompany services agreement covering these services. 18 20 Net loss. As a result of the factors discussed above, primarily relating to the significant initial investments made in establishing and developing our web site, which included among others, the marketing and advertising of our site and attracting competitive personnel, the net loss for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 increased to $5,228,500 from $273,500 for the inception period. Management anticipates to continue to incur losses in the foreseeable future. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES On September 29, 1999, perfumania.com completed its initial public offering and received net proceeds of approximately $16,100,000, net of underwriting discounts and commission expenses. Prior to its initial public offering, perfumnia.com's primary source of liquidity had been advances from Perfumania, Inc. perfumania.com used approximately $3,300,000 of the public offering net proceeds to repay the advances from Perfumania, Inc. At January 29, 2000, Envision had a working capital of $9,481,400, compared to a deficit of $287,700 at January 30, 1999. The increase in working capital was due to the completion of perfumania.com's initial public offering offset by results of operations. Net cash used in operating activities was $5,408,700 for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, compared to cash used in operating activties of $196,300 during the inception period. The difference between Envision's net loss of $5,228,500 for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, and its operating cash flow was due primarily to a $1,466,100 increase in inventory, an increase of $141,300 in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses, offset by non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization and impairment of long-term assets and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,198,500. Net cash used in investing activities for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 was $360,300. These expenditures are primarily related to the purchase of computer equipment and $50,000 for the acquisition of PostAcard.com from Perfumania, Inc. Net cash provided by financing activities was $14,877,500 for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, compared to $310,600 during the inception period. In September 1999, the perfumnia.com completed its initial public offering and received proceeds of $16,100,000, net of $1,400,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions, from the sale of 2,500,000 shares of its common stock. perfumania.com used approximately $3,344,000 of the proceeds to repay advances from Perfumania, Inc. Additionally, perfumania.com incurred approximately $496,000 in other costs in connection with the offering. Also, during 1999, Envision acquired certain assets of PostAcard.com, primarily an e-commerce greeting card website, from Perfumania, Inc. for $500,000 in cash, of which $450,000 was recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital and considered as a dividend to Perfumania, Inc. Management of Envision expects to use the remaining proceeds for working capital, general corporate purposes, and expansion of the Company's operations, including potential acquisitions. Pending completion of such uses, Envision has invested the net proceeds of the offering in high-quality short-term, interest bearing investment-grade debt securities, certificates of deposit or direct or guaranteed obligations of the United States. perfumania.com's principal capital requirements are to acquire merchandise, maintain and improve our online store and engage in advertising and promotional activities. perfumania.com's long-term capital requirements beyond this period will depend on numerous factors, including, but not limited to, the following: - The rate of market acceptance of the online store; - The ability to expand our customer base; - The cost of upgrades to our online store; and - The level of expenditures for sales and marketing and other factors. 19 21 Envision's principal capital requirements are to: - Build-out our technical infrastructure so that we can rapidly fulfill future engagements and increase our development efficiency; - Continue and expand development of new technologies so that we can increase our competitiveness and gross margins; - Extend and intensify our marketing efforts so that we can achieve a leading position in the ebusiness Solution Provider category and achieve our revenue growth objectives; - Fund future strategic acquisitions; and - Provide working capital in order to achieve our business objectives. The Company has a history of significant operating losses and its future capital needs may exceed its current financial resources. The Company also anticipates continuing operating losses in the future and presently is unable to predict when it may become profitable, if at all. As a result of the foregoing, a significant shareholder of the Company has committed to fund the Company's operations and cash requirements through May 31, 2001. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). Among other provisions, SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. It also requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS No. 133 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Management has not determined the effect, if any, of adopting SFAS No. 133. YEAR 2000 Envision has had no disruption to its operations to date as a result of the Year 2000 issue. The Year 2000 issue results from computer systems using two digits rather than four to represent the year so that a date using "00" is recognized as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This situation may disrupt the smooth operation of both our and third party computer systems. Envision has assessed the Year 2000 exposure and completed a program to ascertain our systems were Year 2000 compliant during 1999. A plan of communication with significant business partners was developed to obtain appropriate assurances that their Year 2000 issues are resolved in a timely manner. The remediation costs to date have not been material and it is not anticipated that any future remediation costs will have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. However, the Company may be exposed to incur significant costs if unanticipated internal or external Year 2000 compliance issues arise. Despite assurances from outside parties, there is no assurance that vendors, suppliers and customers have resolved all Year 2000 issues. Given the responses from our internal vendor compliance effort and our experience thus far in 2000, the Company believes it will be highly unlikely that a large number of outside parties will experience any significant problems due to unresolved Year 2000 issues. Envision has contingency plans to address situations that may result if a Year 2000 issue is encountered in a critical application system. Those contingency plans cover the disruption of Perfumania, Inc.'s internal inventory management system, the inability of vendors, principal suppliers and other third party providers to achieve Year 2000 compliance and the disruption of the Web pages and communications links affecting the online store. If both our solutions and contingency plans fail for a critical system for a prolonged period, the impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects for growth would be material. 20 22 SEASONALITY perfumania.com operations are expected to fluctuate according to the retail industry seasonalities. IMPACT OF INFLATION The primary inflationary factor affecting our operations is increased labor costs. Competition for qualified personnel could increase labor costs for us in the future. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK None. 21 23 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 27 29 ENVISION DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (SUCCESSOR TO PERFUMANIA.COM, INC.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- NATURE OF THE BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES On January 7, 1999, perfumania.com, inc. ("perfumania.com") was created as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Perfumania, Inc. (the "Affiliate"). The Affiliate is a wholly-owned subsidiary of E Com Ventures, Inc. perfumania.com operates an online store that specializes in the sale of fragrances, fragrance related products and bath and body products on a retail and wholesale basis. perfumania.com launched its online store in February 1999. On September 29, 1999, perfumania.com completed its initial public offering (see Note 2). On January 11, 2000, a change in control of perfumania.com occurred when Alta Limited ("Alta") exercised an option to purchase from the Affiliate 2,000,000 shares of common stock of perfumania.com at a price of $6.00 per share pursuant to an Option Agreement, dated December 10, 1999, among the Affiliate, Alta and the optionees who are signatories thereto. In connection with such exercise, Alta nominated two directors to the Board of Directors of perfumania.com and an additional four directors were added by the Board of Directors effective upon the expiration of the waiting requirements of Rule 14f-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the Option Agreement, Alta has a second option to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock of Envision at a price of $8.00 per share on or prior to the earlier to occur of December 31, 2000 or various other events, as defined in the Option Agreement. On February 10, 2000, Envision Development Corporation (the "Company") was formed in the State of Florida. The Company entered into a plan of merger with perfumania.com and EDC Sub, Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on February 10, 2000. The plan of merger provided for, among other things, the merger of EDC Sub, Inc. with perfumania.com, with perfumania.com as the surviving corporation. As a result, perfumania.com became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company does not have any present significant operations itself or through any other subsidiary, except for the operations of perfumania.com. In addition, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of perfumania.com issued and outstanding before the reorganization was converted into and exchanged for one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company. Consequently, shareholders of perfumania.com became shareholders of the Company and ceased to be shareholders of perfumania.com. Pursuant to Florida Statutes, shareholder approval of this reorganization was not required, and the reorganization was tax-free for Federal income tax purposes to perfumania.com's shareholders. A summary of the significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements is presented below: Fiscal year-end. The Company's fiscal year ends the Saturday closest to January 31 to enable the Company's operations to be reported in a manner which more closely coincides with general retail reporting practices and the financial reporting needs of the Company. Management's estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management fees. Management fees reflected in the statements of operations represent shared expenses which have been allocated to the Company by the Affiliate for costs associated with resources it shares with the Affiliate using the proportional cost allocation method. Such allocations include the prorata share of the rent, utilities, facilities, maintenance, and administrative services provided by the Affiliate. Prorata amounts of rent, utilities and facilities expense were determined based on the square footage utilized by the Company 28 30 ENVISION DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (SUCCESSOR TO PERFUMANIA.COM, INC.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) while administrative services charges by the Affiliate were determined based on the prorata share of time spent by the Affiliate's administrative personnel. Although no formal agreement existed through May 1, 1999, management believes these allocations are reasonable. The financial statements of the Company do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or financial position that would have existed had the Company been independent of the Affiliate, however, management believes that these fees are representative of the fair value of the services provided. Effective May 1, 1999, the Company entered into an intercompany services agreement (the "Agreement") with its Affiliate. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company will pay various management fees to the Affiliate as follows: for corporate services, the monthly fee is fixed at $10,000 unless monthly gross sales exceed $50,000, at which time, the monthly fee will amount to $10,000 plus two percent of the Company's monthly gross sales; for fulfillment services, the fee is equal to three percent of the costs of goods sold by the Company and serviced by the Affiliate; for advertising services, the fee ranges between 20% to 50% of the cost of the advertisement incurred by the Affiliate; for shared facilities, the fee is equal to a proportionate share of the facility costs incurred by the Affiliate, initially 15%; and for inventory purchases, the purchase price is equal to 105% of the Affiliate's cost of such inventory. Management fees for the year ended January 29, 2000, amounted to $433,655. Sales and marketing expense. Sales and marketing expenses, which consist primarily of advertising and promotional costs, are charged to operations as incurred. Web site development expenses. Web development expenses consist principally of expenses incurred for the development of the Company's web site and are expensed as incurred. These costs are primarily covered under a service agreement with a software and network developer providing web hosting services. Revenue recognition. The Company's revenues are derived principally from the sale of products over the internet. Revenue and related costs are recognized upon delivery of goods, net of discounts and returns. Sales from electronic commerce transactions accounts for 84% of net sales for the year ended January 29, 2000. No one customer accounted for 10% or more of net revenues during the year ended January 29, 2000. Loss per share. Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive effect of stock options using the treasury stock method. The difference between the weighted average common shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share relates to stock options assumed exercised under the treasury method of accounting. Potentially dilutive shares as of January 29, 2000 not included in the diluted per share calculation include 224,244 shares because their effects would be anti-dilutive due to the loss incurred by us. Accordingly, for the year ended January 29, 2000 and the period from January 7, 1999 through January 30, 1999, diluted net loss per common share is the same as basic net loss per common share. Cash and cash equivalents. Short-term investments with maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Inventories. Inventories, consisting of finished goods, are carried at the lower cost or market, cost being determined on a moving average cost basis. Inventories include product costs, freight and insurance charges. Property and equipment. Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Intangibles and other long lived assets. Assets and liabilities acquired in connection with business combinations accounted for under the purchase method are recorded at their respective estimated fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired, 29 31 ENVISION DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (SUCCESSOR TO PERFUMANIA.COM, INC.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) including the recognition of applicable deferred taxes. At January 29, 2000, the Company had no recorded goodwill. The Company reviews long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles and goodwill and record an impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to future discounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets or expected future cash flows on an undiscounted basis. The Company determined that the carrying amount of the Company's goodwill and other long-term assets was not recoverable; therefore, an impairment of approximately $120,000 was recorded as general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statement of operations for the year ending January 29, 2000. Income taxes. The Company records income taxes using the liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequence of temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that any or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Prior to the change in control that occurred in January 2000, the Company filed a consolidated U.S. Federal income tax return with its Affiliate. Fair value of financial instruments. The Company's short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, consist primarily of instruments without extended maturities, the fair value of which, based on management's estimates, equaled their carrying values. Due to Affiliate. Amounts due to Affiliate include accounts payable primarily for inventory and management fees. Such amounts have similar terms as with other suppliers which are due in 30 days. Interest is charged at 12.5% per annum. Total interest expense approximated $176,200 for the year ended January 29, 2000 and $2,600 during the period from January 7, 1999 through January 30, 1999. Concentration of risk. The Company operates an online store that specializes in the sale of fragrances, fragrance-related products and bath and body products. The Company has relied upon its Affiliate to provide corporate, fulfillment, inventory supply, advertising space-sharing and other administrative services through an intercompany agreement. Accordingly, a significant portion of the inventory sold since inception is purchased from the Affiliate at an amount equal to the Affiliate's cost plus five percent. The inability of the Affiliate to adequately provide these services or the failure of the Company to develop management and financial systems and alternative sources of inventory supply could adversely impact the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company's principal competitors include department stores, discount perfume retailers, on-line retailers, catalog retailers and other retailers. Many of the Company's competitors are larger in scope and have greater financial and marketing resources. Recent accounting pronouncements. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). Among other provisions, SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. It also requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS No. 133 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Management has not determined the effect, if any, of adopting SFAS No. 133. 30 32 ENVISION DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (SUCCESSOR TO PERFUMANIA.COM, INC.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2 -- INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING In September 1999, perfumania.com completed its initial public offering of its common stock (the "Offering"), in which perfumania.com and its Affiliate sold 3,500,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $7.00 per share. Of the 3,500,000 shares of common stock, 2,500,000 shares of common stock were sold by perfumania.com. perfumania.com received proceeds of approximately $16,100,000, net of $1,400,000 underwriting discounts and commissions. perfumania.com used approximately $3,344,000 of the proceeds to repay advances from the Affiliate. Additionally, perfumania.com incurred approximately $496,000 in other costs in connection with the Offering. In connection with the Offering, perfumania.com granted common stocks warrant to the underwriters to purchase 350,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $9.80 per share. The common stock warrants can be exercised at any time for a period of five years. NOTE 3 -- ACQUISITION On October 31, 1999, perfumania.com acquired certain assets of PostAcard.com, primarily an e-commerce greeting card website, from the Affiliate for $500,000 in cash. The acquisition has been recorded at the Affiliate's historical cost of $50,000 and the excess was treated as a dividend to the Affiliate. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and since PostAcard.com had no tangible assets the Affiliate's historical cost was recorded as goodwill. Subsequent to its acquisition, perfumania.com determined that the carrying amount recorded was not recoverable; therefore, an impairment charge was recorded in the accompanying statement of operations. PostAcard.com had no significant operations for the year ended January 29, 2000. NOTE 4 -- PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET Property and equipment, net is comprised of the following as of January 29, 2000 and January 30, 1999:
ESTIMATED USEFUL JANUARY 29, JANUARY 30, LIVES (IN 2000 1999 YEARS) ----------- ----------- ------------- Furniture, fixtures and equipment.................... 54,119 -- 5 Computer equipment and software...................... 200,024 14,308 3 -------- -------- 254,143 14,308 Accumulated depreciation............................. (17,768) (95) -------- -------- $236,375 $ 14,213 ======== ========
Depreciation expense for the year ended January 29, 2000 and the period from January 7, 1999 (date of inception) through January 30, 1999 approximated $18,000 and $95, respectively. NOTE 5 -- COMMITMENTS Effective April 15, 1999, perfumania.com entered into a 36 month service agreement with a software and network developer providing web hosting services. Pursuant to the agreement, perfumania.com must remit 36 equal monthly installments of $14,200. Under the term of the service agreement, in return for displaying the network developer's corporate logo on perfumania.com's web page, perfumania.com shall receive a marketing credit of $1,700 per month, resulting in a net monthly web hosting service fee of $12,500 per month. perfumania.com is subject to an early termination fee of $201,165 if cancelled within the first 12 months and $100,583 if cancelled after 24 months of service. The net monthly web hosting service fee is expensed as incurred and is reflected in web site development expenses in the accompanying financial statements. 31 33 ENVISION DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (SUCCESSOR TO PERFUMANIA.COM, INC.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In May 1999, perfumania.com entered into an employment agreement with its then chief executive officer and president for a five year initial term. Total annual base salary is $200,000. A total of 225,000 common stock options were granted at an exercise price equal to the initial public offering price of $7.00 per share. These options vested immediately at the date of grant. Upon change of control of perfumania.com, the president is entitled to a lump sum payment equal to three times the annual base salary. Due to the change in control that took effect on January 11, 2000, the then president received a lump sum payment of $600,000. Such amount has been recorded as general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statement of operations for the year ended January 29, 2000. Four of the Company's officers have employment agreements which provide for aggregate base salaries of $715,000. The agreements expire at various dates from January 2003 through February 2004. The officers are eligible for an annual bonus, payable in the Company's stock or cash, based upon such criteria as may be established in advance by the Board of Directors. NOTE 6 -- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS perfumania.com has purchased a majority of the inventory sold since inception from the Affiliate at an amount equal to the Affiliate's cost plus five percent. For the year ended January 29, 2000 and the period from January 7, 1999 (date of inception) through January 30, 1999, such purchases totaled approximately $1,748,000 and $220,000, respectively. perfumania.com is charged for various services provided by the Affiliate including administrative, distribution and other services. Such charges were approximately $434,000 and $30,000 for the year ended January 29, 2000 and for the period from January 7, 1999 (date of inception) to January 30, 1999, respectively, and are classified as management fees in the accompanying statements of operations. Purchases of inventory and expenses charged by the Affiliate are not necessarily indicative of costs and expenses which might have been incurred had perfumania.com been operating as a separate, or stand-alone company. Management believes that all operating costs incurred by the Affiliate on behalf of perfumania.com are reflected in the accompanying financial statements. perfumania.com's former Chief Executive Officer (the "former CEO") provided consulting services to perfumania.com amounting to $50,000 during the period from January 7, 1999 (date of inception) through January 30, 1999. In addition, a party related to the former CEO provided consulting services to perfumania.com amounting to $65,000 during the period from January 7, 1999 (date of inception) through January 30, 1999. These consulting services were not subject to a written consulting agreement. Management believes that these amounts are representative of the time both parties spent in providing these consulting services to perfumania.com during the respective period. Both of these amounts are included in consulting fees in the accompanying statement of operation during the period from January 7, 1999 (data of inception) through January 30, 1999. NOTE 7 -- STOCK OPTION PLAN Effective May 1, 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). Officers, key employees and nonemployee consultants may be granted stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, performance shares and performance units under the Plan. The Company has reserved 1,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Plan. Prior to establishment of a Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors, the Plan was administered by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Board of Directors or the Committee was authorized to determine, among other things, the key employees to whom, and the time at which, options and other benefits were granted, the number of shares subject to each option, the applicable vesting schedule 32 34 ENVISION DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (SUCCESSOR TO PERFUMANIA.COM, INC.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) and the exercise price. The Board of Directors or the Committee will determine the treatment to be afforded to a participant in the Plan in the event of termination of employment for any reason, including death, disability or retirement. Under the Plan the maximum term of an incentive stock option is 10 years and the maximum term of a nonqualified stock option is 10 years. The Board of Directors has the power to amend the Plan from time to time. Shareholder approval of an amendment is only required to the extent that it is necessary to maintain the Plan's status as a protected plan under applicable securities laws or the Plan's status as a qualified plan under applicable tax laws. Options to purchase an aggregate of 740,000 have been granted under the Plan to employees and non-employee director nominees of the Company before January 11, 2000, the change in control date. These options have a total term of ten years. Of the total options to purchase shares granted under the Plan before the change in control date, 460,000 options vested immediately on the date of grant, and options to purchase 280,000 shares had vesting as follows: 16.67%, 33.33% and 50.0% of the total number of shares granted on the first, second and third anniversary of the date of grant, respectively. Given the change in control that occurred in January 2000, the 280,000 options became 100% vested in accordance with the Plan provisions of change in control. After the change in control date, the Company has granted 1,496,547 options to purchase shares of the Company common stock, exceeding the current Plan limits by 1,236,547 options. These options in excess of the current Plan limits are subject to shareholders' approval of an increase of the reserve shares of common stock under the Plan. The vesting period of these 1,496,547 options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock extends from three to four years. SFAS No. 123 encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company measures compensation expense for the stock Plan using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principal Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB No. 25"). Accordingly, compensation expense for qualified and non-qualified employee stock options granted under the Plan is equal to the difference between the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. For options granted to employees which were outstanding prior to the Offering, the compensation expense is equal to the difference between the fair market value of the stock at the offering price and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. For options granted to non-employee directors or other employees in exchange for goods and services, compensation cost is measured in accordance with SFAS No. 123. The following is a summary of all stock option transactions:

NOTE 9 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On March 10, 2000, the Company signed an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire all of the outstanding stock of Envision Development Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation. The closing of this transaction is subject to Shareholder approval. On April 7, 2000, Envision acquired approximately 80% of the voting stock of Qui Vive, Inc. ("Qui Vive"), a Delaware corporation pursuant to an Amended and Restated Stock Acquisition Agreement (the "Stock Acquisition Agreement"), dated March 31, 2000, among Envision, QV Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Envision and created solely for the purpose of the acquisition, Sundog Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and RockMountain Ventures Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership. Pursuant to this Stock Acquisition Agreement, Envision issued shares of its common stock in order to acquire shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock of Qui Vive on April 7, 2000. Envision issued 1,492,500 shares of its common stock to acquire the 80% interest. Envision will issue additional shares of its common stock to complete the acquisition of 80% of the voting stock of Qui Vive subject to Envision's shareholder approval. Qui Vive, which does business as "QV Tech", has no significant operations except for the development of its proprietary "Interosa" technology. On April 10, 2000, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Agreement with VP IP, a Delaware corporation. Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, the Company acquired the software and URL of VP IP. In exchange, the Company issued 200,000 shares of its common stock to the owners of VP IP which were William Patch, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and his immediate family and Alex Adamopoulos, an officer of the Company. On April 20, the Board of Directors approved a lease for the new corporate headquarters in Bridgewater, Massachusetts. The lease commences on August 1, 2000 for a term of seven years. The minimum lease payments are approximately $529,000 annually for years one to five and approximately $568,000 annually for years six and seven. The Company has a history of significant operating losses and its future capital needs may exceed its current financial resources. The Company also anticipates continuing operating losses in the future and presently is unable to predict when it may become profitable, if at all. As a result of the foregoing, a significant shareholder of the Company has committed to fund the Company's operations and cash requirements through May 31, 2001. 36 38 CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES On April 4, 2000, the Company dismissed its independent certified public accountants, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, effective upon the completion of the audit of the financial statements as of January 29, 2000. The decision to dismiss the accountants was approved by the Board of Directors, as the Company did not have an audit or similar committee. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP audited the Company's financial statements for the period from January 7, 1999 (date of inception) through January 30, 1999, the three-month period ended May 1, 1999 and the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000. Their reports on such financial statements contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except that their reports for each of the periods referred to above, with the exception of the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000, contained a modification to their opinion relating to the Company's ability to continue as a "going concern". In connection with its audits noted in the preceding paragraph, and through April 28, 2000, there have been no disagreements with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on any matter of accounting principles and practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for the periods noted in the preceding paragraph. During the audit periods noted above and through April 28, 2000, there have been no reportable events.

C. GENERAL PROVISIONS 1. Except as may be provided by the resolutions of the Board authorizing the issuance of any class or series of Preferred Stock, as hereinabove provided, cumulative voting by any shareholder is hereby expressly denied. 2.

The Corporation's Board shall consist of not less than five (5) nor more than eleven (11) members with exact number to be fixed from time to time by resolution of the Board except a greater number may be required to give effect to the rights of holders of the Preferred Stock or any series thereof to elect Directors. No decrease in the number of directors shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director. The Board shall be divided into three classes, Class I, Class II and Class III. The number of directors elected to each class shall be as nearly equal in number as possible. The Board shall apportion any increase or decrease in the number of directorships among the classes so as to make the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible. Each director in Class I shall be elected to an initial term to expire at the annual meeting next ensuing, each director in Class II shall be elected to an initial term to expire one year thereafter, and each director in Class III shall be elected to an initial term to expire two years thereafter, in each case and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, death or removal from office. The Initial Directors shall be as follows: Class I: William J. Patch, Michael E. Amideo, Dean Willard Class II: Thomas Carmody, Sunny C. Vanderbeck Class III: Garrick M. Hileman, Alan E. Rudd Upon the expiration of the initial terms of office for each class of directors, respectively, the directors of each class shall be elected for a term of three (3) years to serve until their successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation, death or removal from office. B. DIRECTOR VACANCIES; REMOVAL. Whenever any vacancy on the Board shall occur due to death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal, increase in the number of directors, or otherwise, only a majority of directors in office, although less than a quorum of the entire Board, may fill the vacancy or vacancies for the balance of the unexpired term of terms, at which time a successor or successors shall be duly elected by the shareholders and qualified. 4 5 Shareholders shall not, and shall have no power to, fill any vacancy on the Board. Shareholders may remove a director from office prior to the expiration of his or her term, but only for "cause" by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote for the election of directors. C. SHAREHOLDER NOMINATIONS OF DIRECTOR CANDIDATES. Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors of the Corporation. Nominations of persons for election to the Board at an annual or special meeting of shareholders may be made by or at the direction of the Board by any nominating committee or person appointed by the Board or by any shareholder of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors at the meeting who complies with the procedures set forth in this paragraph C; provided, however, that nominations of persons for election to the Board at a special meeting may be made only if the election of directors is one of the purposes described in the special meeting notice required by Section 607.0705 of the Florida Business Corporation Act. Nominations of persons for election at annual meetings, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the Board, shall be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a shareholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than One Hundred Twenty (120) days nor more than One Hundred Eighty (180) days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the Company's notice of annual meeting provided with respect to the previous year's annual meeting; provided, however, that if no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed to be more than thirty (30) calendar days earlier than the date contemplated by the previous year's proxy statement or sixty (60) calendar days after such date, such notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so received (i) not more than sixty (60) days prior to the annual meeting of stockholders, or (ii) not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the date on which notice of the date of the annual meeting is given to shareholders or made public, whichever first occurs. Such shareholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth (a) as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a director at the annual meeting, (i) the name, age, business address and residence address of the proposed nominee, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of the proposed nominee, (iii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the proposed nominee, and (iv) any other information relating to the proposed nominee that is required to be disclosed in solicitations for proxies for election of directors pursuant to Rule 14a under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; and (b) as to the shareholder giving the notice of nominees for election at the annual meeting, (i) the name and record address of the shareholder, and (ii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the shareholder. The Corporation may 5 6 require any proposed nominee for election at an annual or special meeting of shareholders to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation. No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth herein. The Chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the requirements of this paragraph C, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded. ARTICLE VII The Corporation shall indemnify and may advance expenses to its officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by Florida law in existence either now or hereafter. ARTICLE VIII A. CALL OF SPECIAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING. Except as otherwise required by law, the Corporation shall not be required to hold a special meeting of shareholders of the Corporation unless (in addition to any other requirements of law) (i) the Chairman; (ii) the holders of not less than fifty (50) percent of all the votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered at the proposed special meeting sign, date and deliver to the Corporation's secretary one or more written demands for the meeting describing the purpose or purposes for which it is to be held; or (iii) the meeting is called by the Board pursuant to a resolution approved by a majority of the entire Board.

B. ADVANCE NOTICE OF SHAREHOLDER-PROPOSED BUSINESS FOR ANNUAL MEETING. At an annual meeting of the shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be either (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board, (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board, 8 or (c) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder. In addition to any other applicable requirements, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a shareholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, not less than One Hundred Twenty (120) days nor more than One Hundred Eighty (180) days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the Company's notice of annual meeting provided with respect to the previous year's annual meeting; provided, however, that if no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed to be more than thirty (30) calendar days earlier than the date contemplated by the previous year's proxy statement or sixty (60) calendar days later than such date, such notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so received (i) not more than sixty (60) days prior to the annual meeting, or (ii) not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the date on which notice of the date of the annual meeting is given to shareholders or made public, whichever first occurs. Such shareholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the 6 7 annual meeting (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and record address of the shareholder proposing such business, (iii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the shareholder, and (iv) any material interest of the shareholder in such business. The Chairman of an annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the requirements of this paragraph B, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. C. AMENDMENTS. Notwithstanding anything contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to the contrary, Articles II, VI and VIII shall not be altered, amended or repealed except by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of all capital stock entitled to vote for the election of directors.

ARTICLE II MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS Section 1. PLACE. All annual meetings of shareholders shall be held at such place, within or without the State of Florida, as may be designated by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice of the meeting or in a duly executed waiver of notice thereof.

Section 2. TIME OF ANNUAL MEETING. Annual meetings of shareholders shall be held on such date and at such time fixed, from time to time, by the Board of Directors, provided that there shall be an annual meeting held every year at which the shareholders shall elect the appropriate class of the Board of Directors and transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting. Section 3. CALL OF SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the shareholders shall be held if called in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles of Incorporation") for the call of a special meeting of shareholders. Section 4. CONDUCT OF MEETINGS. The Chairman of the Board (or in his absence, the President or such other designee of the Chairman of the Board) shall preside at the annual and special meetings of shareholders and shall be given full discretion in establishing the rules and procedures to be followed in conducting the meetings, except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation or in these Bylaws. Section 5. NOTICE AND WAIVER OF NOTICE. Except as otherwise provided by law, written or printed notice stating the place, day and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered not less than ten (10) and not more than sixty (60) days before the day of the meeting, either personally or by 2 first-class mail, by or at the direction of the President, the Secretary, or the officer or person calling the meeting, to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. If the notice is mailed at least thirty (30) days before the date of the meeting, it may be done by a class of United States mail other than first class. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail addressed to the shareholder at his address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the Corporation, with postage thereon prepaid. If a meeting is adjourned to another time and/or place, and if an announcement of the adjourned time and/or place is made at the meeting, it shall not be necessary to give notice of the adjourned meeting unless the Board of Directors, after adjournment, fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting. Whenever any notice is required to be given to any shareholder, a waiver thereof in writing signed by the person or persons entitled to such notice, whether signed before, during or after the time of the meeting stated therein, and delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records, shall be equivalent to the giving of such notice. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the shareholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of (a) lack of or defective notice of such meeting, unless the person objects at the beginning to the holding of the meeting or the transacting of any business at the meeting, or (b) lack of defective notice of a particular matter at a meeting that is not within the purpose or purposes described in the meeting notice, unless the person objects to considering such matter when it is presented. Section 6. BUSINESS AND NOMINATIONS FOR ANNUAL AND SPECIAL MEETINGS. Business transacted at any special meeting shall be confined to the purposes stated in the notice thereof. At any annual meeting of shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the requirements and procedures set forth in the Articles of Incorporation. Only such persons who are nominated for election as Directors of the Corporation in accordance with the requirements and procedures set forth in the Articles of Incorporation shall be eligible for election as Directors of the Corporation. Section 7. QUORUM. Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take action on a matter at a meeting only if a quorum of these shares exists with respect to that matter. Except as otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or by law, a majority of the shares entitled to vote on the matter by each voting group, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders, but in no event shall a quorum consist of less than one-third (1/3) of the shares of each voting group entitled to vote. If less than a majority of outstanding shares entitled to vote are represented at a meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. After a quorum has been established at any shareholders' meeting, the subsequent withdrawal of shareholders, so as to reduce the number of shares entitled to vote at the meeting below the number required for a quorum, shall not affect the validity of any action taken at the 2 3 meeting or any adjournment thereof. Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting, it is deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting and for any adjournment of that meeting unless a new record date is or must be set for that adjourned meeting. When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the holders of a majority of the shares having voting power, present in person or represented by proxy, shall decide any question brought before such meeting except when the question is one upon which an express provision of the Florida Business Corporation Act, or of the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws requires a different vote; then such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. Section 8. VOTING PER SHARE. Except as otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or by law, each shareholder is entitled to one (1) vote for each outstanding share held by him on each matter voted at a shareholders' meeting. Section 9. VOTING OF SHARES. A shareholder may vote at any meeting of shareholders of the Corporation, either in person or by proxy. Shares standing in the name of another corporation, domestic or foreign, may be voted by the officer, agent or proxy designated by the bylaws of such corporate shareholder or, in the absence of any applicable bylaw, by such person or persons as the Board of Directors of the corporate shareholder may designate. In the absence of any such designation, or, in case of conflicting designation by the corporate shareholder, the Chairman of the Board, the President, the secretary and the treasurer of the corporate shareholder, in that order, shall be presumed to be fully authorized to vote such shares. Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian, personal representative, or conservator may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into his name. Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held by him without a transfer of such shares into his name or the name of his nominee. Shares held by or under the control of a receiver, a trustee in bankruptcy proceedings, or an assignee for the benefit of creditors may be voted by such person without the transfer thereof into his name. If shares stand of record in the names of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety or otherwise, or if two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the Secretary of the Corporation is given notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, then acts with respect to voting shall have the following effect: (a) if only one votes, in person or by proxy, his act binds all; (b) if more than one vote, in person or by proxy, the act of the majority so voting binds all; (c) if more than one vote, in person or by proxy, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each faction is entitled to vote the share or shares in question proportionally; or (d) if the instrument or order so filed shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interest, a majority or a vote evenly split for purposes hereof shall be a majority or a vote evenly split in interest. The principles of this paragraph shall apply, insofar as possible, to execution of proxies, waivers, consents, or objections and for the purpose of ascertaining the presence of a quorum. Section 10. PROXIES. Any shareholder of the Corporation, other person entitled to vote on behalf of a shareholder pursuant to law, or attorney-in-fact for such persons may vote the shareholder's shares in person or by proxy. Any shareholder of the Corporation may appoint a proxy to vote or otherwise act for him by signing an appointment form, either personally or by his 3 4 attorney-in-fact. An executed telegram, cablegram or facsimile appearing to have been transmitted by such person, or a photographic, facsimile, or equivalent reproduction of an appointment form, shall be deemed a sufficient appointment form. An appointment of a proxy is effective when received by the Secretary of the Corporation or such other officer or agent which is authorized to tabulate votes, and shall be valid for up to 11 months, unless a longer period is expressly provided in the appointment form. The death or incapacity of the shareholder appointing a proxy does not affect the right of the Corporation to accept the proxy's authority unless notice of the death or incapacity is received by the secretary or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes before the proxy exercises his authority under the appointment. An appointment of a proxy is revocable by the shareholder unless the appointment is coupled with an interest. Section 11. SHAREHOLDER LIST. After fixing a record date for a meeting of shareholders, the Corporation shall prepare an alphabetical list of the names of all its shareholders who are entitled to notice of the meeting, arranged by voting group with the address of, and the number and class and series, if any, of shares held by each. The shareholders' list must be available for inspection by any shareholder for a period of ten (10) days prior to the meeting or such shorter time as exists between the record date and the meeting and continuing through the meeting at the Corporation's principal office, at a place identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting will be held, or at the office of the Corporation's transfer agent or registrar. Any shareholder of the Corporation or his agent or attorney is entitled on written demand to inspect the shareholders' list (subject to the requirements of law), during regular business hours and at his expense, during the period it is available for inspection. The Corporation shall make the shareholders' list available at the meeting of shareholders, and any shareholder or his agent or attorney is entitled to inspect the list at any time during the meeting or any adjournment. Section 12. FIXING RECORD DATE. For the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of shareholders for any other proper purposes, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, such date in any case to be not more than seventy (70) days, and, in case of a meeting of shareholders, not less than ten (10) days, prior to the date on which the particular action requiring such determination of shareholders is to be taken. If no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, or shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which the notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolutions of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of shareholders. When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this Section 12, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof, except where the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting or as required by law. 4 5 Section 13. INSPECTORS AND JUDGES. The Board of Directors in advance of any meeting may, but need not, appoint one or more inspectors of election or judges of the vote, as the case may be, to act at the meeting or any adjournment(s) thereof.

Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right (in common with other tenants, their employees, agents and invitees, and all others to whom Landlord has granted or may grant such rights) to use the Common Areas for the intended purposes, subject to reasonable rules and regulations established by Landlord from time to time. Tenant shall abide by such rules and regulations, shall cause others who use the Common Areas with Tenant's express or implied permission to abide by Landlord's rules and regulations, and shall not interfere with the rights of Landlord, other tenants or any other person entitled to use the Common Areas. Landlord will enforce the rules and regulations in a consistent, non-discriminatory fashion with all tenants, except where leases or circumstances require otherwise. At any time, Landlord may close any Common Area to perform any acts in the Common Area as, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, are desirable to improve the Property or to protect Landlord's rights with respect to the Property. Landlord shall maintain the Common Areas in good -2- 3 order, condition, replacement and repair, subject to reasonable wear and tear. Landlord shall maintain parking spaces for Tenant's use from time to time, which spaces may be provided in common with other tenants and occupants in the Building from time to time on a first-come, first-serve basis. The number of Tenant's parking spaces shall be calculated on the basis of four (4.0) spaces per one thousand square feet of Premises rentable square footage. ARTICLE III - TERM; LANDLORD'S AND TENANT'S WORK 3.1 TERM. This Lease is for the Term beginning on the Commencement Date. 3.2 TENANT IMPROVEMENTS; CONDITION OF THE PREMISES. The tenant finish improvements to be provided by Landlord for the Premises shall be described in a set of plans and specifications to be developed by Landlord in cooperation with Tenant ("Landlord's Work"). Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to achieve Substantial Completion of Landlord's Work prior to the later to occur of (a) the date which is 120 days after the date on which Landlord and Tenant approve in writing a final set of plans and specifications (the "Plans"), or (b) August 1, 2000. As used herein, the term "Substantial Completion" shall mean completion of Landlord's Work, subject to completion of punchlist details of construction or mechanical adjustments which do not materially interfere with Tenant's work or use of the Premises, and the obtaining of a Certificate of Occupancy for the Premises if required by applicable law. At the time Landlord has completed Landlord's Work, Landlord shall notify Tenant, and Tenant and Landlord shall jointly inspect the Premises and prepare a punchlist of items to be completed, if any. Landlord agrees to complete any such punchlist items with respect to Landlord's Work within sixty (60) days after Substantial Completion of Landlord's Work. Landlord and Tenant shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable ways so as to coordinate their work and to achieve the completion of the work. If Substantial Completion does not occur within one hundred twenty (120) days after the later to occur of the dates specified in clauses (a) or (b) of this sentence, as such period may be extended pursuant to Section 28(c) hereof including, without limitation, because of delays caused by the action or inaction of Tenant or due to long lead time items (the date as so extended being referred to herein as the "Outside Delivery Date"), Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by giving written notice of such termination to Landlord on or after the Outside Delivery Date. Such termination shall be effective thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice by Landlord unless Substantial Completion occurs prior to the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period in which event Tenant's termination notice shall be null and void and of no effect. Landlord shall bear the cost of Landlord's Work, including, without limitation, the costs of preparing the Plans and conducting other necessary architectural and engineering work, up to a maximum of $740,000.00. Tenant shall be responsible for the cost, if any, of Landlord's Work in excess of such amount, and shall pay directly to Landlord's general contractor any such excess within seven (7) business days of receipt by Tenant from Landlord of the invoice therefor. In the event that the actual cost of Landlord's Work is less than $740,000.00, Minimum Rent payable under this Lease shall be adjusted to reflect the reduced cost of Landlord's Work. Landlord's Work shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner using first-class new materials and equipment, and in accordance with the requirements of all applicable Laws and Insurance Regulations as defined in Section 5.1(a). Subject to the completion of Landlord's Work, the Premises shall be delivered "AS-IS", subject to all recorded matters, all applicable zoning, and Laws and Insurance Regulations, as defined in Section 5.1(a), and Landlord shall not be required to make any repairs or replacements (hereafter jointly "Repairs") or improvements, alterations or additions (hereafter collectively "Improvements") to the Premises. Tenant shall have the right to inspect the Premises prior to delivery of the Premises to Tenant. Tenant's execution of this Lease shall be deemed an acknowledgment that Tenant has inspected (or had the opportunity to inspect) the Premises, is satisfied with the condition -3- 4 thereof and waives any existing defect in the condition of the Premises or Property (latent or otherwise), subject to the completion of any necessary punchlist items. All Improvements, whether placed in or attached or made to the Premises prior to or during the Term, shall become and be the property of Landlord and shall be and remain part of the Premises as of the end of the Term, except any trade fixtures of Tenant. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the repair of the Improvements within the Premises except general building systems unless required as a result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors or invitees. In case of damage or destruction of such Improvements during the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to recover its loss from any insurance company which has insured the same. 3.3 TENANT'S WORK. Tenant's Work, if any, shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner using first-class new materials and equipment, and in accordance with the requirements of all applicable Laws and Insurance Regulations as defined in Section 5.1(a). In the event that Tenant desires to install communications lines (such as T1 and T3 lines), such installation shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and Tenant shall be required to post with Landlord a deposit in the amount of not less than one (1) years service fees depending upon the contract required by the Building's internet service provider. In the event that Tenant is able to negotiate its own separate contract with such internet service provider, then such deposit shall not be required. ARTICLE IV - RENT 4.1 BASE RENT AND ADDITIONAL RENT. Tenant shall pay Base Rent monthly, in advance, on the Commencement Date and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter. Additional Rent, which includes Operating Cost Rent, Tax Rent and all other sums (except Base Rent) payable by Tenant, shall be paid when due. If (i) Base Rent and/or any Additional Rent is not received by Landlord or otherwise paid by the due date, or (ii) Tenant's check is not honored, and because actual damages result from late payments and dishonored checks are difficult to fix, Tenant agrees to pay $100.00 as liquidated damages for each late payment or dishonored check provided Tenant shall not be required to pay liquidated damages with respect to the first such failure unless same is not cured within five (5) days after written notice from Landlord. In addition, Landlord may charge interest from the initial due date at the rate of the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) or the maximum legal rate on all amounts not paid or received by Landlord within five (5) days of the due date. If two (2) or more of Tenant's checks are dishonored, Landlord may demand all future payments be by certified or bank check or money order. The late charge and interest payments do not modify Tenant's obligation to pay Base Rent and Additional Rent when due, nor is Landlord precluded from pursuing other remedies under the Lease or as are otherwise available. 4.2 PAYMENT OF RENT. Tenant shall pay all Base Rent, Additional Rent and costs of every kind relating to the Premises without notice, demand, setoff, deduction, counterclaim, defense or abatement except as specifically provided in the Lease. 4.3 TAX RENT. Tenant shall pay Tenant's Pro Rata Share of all Taxes in excess of the Tax Base ("Tax Rent"). For purposes hereof, the Tax Base shall be the Taxes for Tax Fiscal Year 2002 (July 1, 2001 through June 30, 2002, based on the assessment as of January 1, 2001). Taxes shall include real estate taxes, assessments, sales or use taxes, sewer entrance fees, rent taxes and other public charges on or relating to the Property including, without limitation, the Building, other improvements, land and personalty, taxes on rentals, and taxes in addition to or in lieu of existing taxes, foreseen and unforeseen, ordinary and extraordinary, and all reasonable costs related to attempts to secure a refund or abatement (together called "Taxes"); provided Taxes shall not include -4- 5 franchise, estate, inheritance, succession, transfer, income or excess profits taxes assessed on Landlord. Tenant also shall pay before the due date all taxes attributable to its signs or personal property, and all Tax increases resulting from Tenant's Improvements to the Premises. If less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the Building is leased and occupied on the applicable Taxes assessment date, then the Taxes for such year shall be extrapolated to reflect the Taxes that would have been assessed had the Building been ninety-five percent (95%) leased and occupied on the applicable Taxes assessment date. Tenant's Pro Rata Share shall be based upon Taxes provided Landlord first shall receive from any Tax refund all costs of securing the refund and, to the extent Tenant paid Taxes for which the refund was received, Tenant then shall be entitled to its Pro Rata Share of the balance. Landlord shall have sole control of all tax abatement proceedings, and the pendency of abatement proceedings or Landlord's withholding of tax payments shall not affect Tenant's obligation to pay Taxes as provided herein. If the Property or the Premises is not separately assessed, Landlord shall reasonably determine Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Taxes based on the assessor's worksheet and other reasonably available information. Tax Rent shall be paid to Landlord monthly with Base Rent in the amount which Landlord estimates, from time to time, will represent Tenant's Tax Rent. Landlord shall notify Tenant of its actual Pro Rata Share after receipt of a Tax bill, and any excess paid by Tenant shall be applied to Tenant's next Tax Rent payment or refunded, at Landlord's election, or Tenant shall pay any deficiency within thirty (30) days of such notice. 4.4 OPERATING COSTS RENT. Commencing on January 1, 2002, Tenant shall pay Tenant's Pro Rata Share of all of the "Operating Costs" in excess of the Operating Cost Base ("Operating Cost Rent"). The Operating Cost Base shall be the Operating Costs for the period of January 1, 2001 through December 31, 2001. (a) "Operating Costs" include all costs and expenses of every kind and nature incurred by Landlord in operating, managing, equipping, lighting, cleaning, maintaining, repairing and replacing the Premises, the Building and the Property including, without limitation, costs for janitorial service, rubbish removal, HVAC service, utilities, landscaping and snow removal; service contracts with independent contractors including, but not limited to, elevator and HVAC maintenance; management fees equal to six percent (6%) of all Rents, Additional Rents and charges, wages, salaries, benefits, payroll taxes and unemployment compensation insurance for employees of Landlord or any contractor of Landlord engaged in the cleaning, operating, maintenance of security of the Property; the cost of all of Landlord's insurance, including, without limitation, casualty, liability and loss of rent insurance provided any and all costs incurred by Landlord shall be properly allocated between the Building and any other property of Landlord also benefitted. If less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the Building is leased and occupied at any time during the calendar year, then the Operating Costs for such year shall be extrapolated to reflect the Operating Costs that would have been incurred had the Building been ninety-five percent (95%) leased and occupied during such calendar year. In the event that other buildings are constructed on the Property, the costs of maintaining the access roads and other exterior Common Areas will be allocated among all the buildings (including the Building) in accordance with the leaseable square footage of such buildings. Operating Costs shall not include financing expenses, real estate taxes, costs paid directly by individual tenants to suppliers including tenant electricity and telephone costs. Operating Costs shall not include any utilities which are separately metered to individual tenants in the Building, the cost of build out or fit up for individual tenants in the Building, Direct Reimbursable Expenses (as defined below) of the Tenant or any other tenants, capital expenditures with respect to the Building made within the first five (5) Lease Years, and initial construction costs of any other improvements on the Property. In all Lease Years other than the first -5- 6 five (5) Lease Years, only that portion of any capital expenditures attributable to any rental year (as determined by Landlord in accordance with its accounting practices) shall be included in Operating Costs for that rental year. (b) Operating Costs Rent shall be paid to Landlord monthly with Base Rent in the amount which Landlord estimates, from time to time, will represent Tenant's Operating Costs Rent. Landlord shall notify Tenant of its actual Pro Rata Share within ninety (90) days of the end of each calendar year (provided Landlord's failure to so notify Tenant shall not reduce Tenant's liability when such notice is issued), and any excess paid by Tenant shall be applied shall be applied to Tenant's next Operating Cost Rent payment or refunded, at Landlord's election, or Tenant shall pay any deficiency within fifteen (15) days of such notice. (c) In addition to Operating Costs Rent, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Tenant's Direct Reimbursable Expenses. Direct Reimbursable Expenses means operating costs which can be attributable directly to the operating, maintenance, repair and/or replacement of the premises of an individual tenant or group of tenants. Such expenses include, but are not limited to, building repairs, utilities, janitorial services, HVAC and similar expenses which would otherwise qualify as operating costs. At Landlord's option and to the extent Landlord deems feasible, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) charge Direct Reimbursable Expenses, for which Tenant is responsible, directly to Tenant or pro rata to those tenants for which such expenses were incurred, and such expenses shall be due and payable within fifteen (15) days of receipt of a bill. To the extent Landlord elects to charge tenant or a group of tenants for Direct Reimbursable Expenses, the applicable amount shall not be included in Operating Costs for the purposes of determining Tenant's Pro Rata Share so as to eliminate duplication of charges. If Tenant requests that Landlord perform work on Tenant's behalf, there shall be added to the cost of such work a ten percent (10%) administrative fee. ARTICLE V - TENANT'S COVENANTS AND LANDLORD'S OBLIGATIONS 5.1 GENERAL COVENANTS. In addition to Tenant's other Lease covenants, Tenant shall, at its expense, (a) use the Premises solely for the Permitted Use and for no other purpose, procure all required licenses and permits (other than the building permit for Landlord's Work and the certificate of occupancy with respect thereto), and not use the Premises or Property in violation of any laws, ordinances, orders or regulations of any public authority or of any insurer, Board of Fire Underwriters, or similar insurance rating bureau having jurisdiction over the Premises (hereafter collectively "Laws and Insurance Regulations"), or in a manner which may be injurious to or adversely affect the general character of the Property and not conduct any auction, bankruptcy or similar sale thereon; (b) comply with Landlord's sign criteria, if any, and sign criteria imposed by applicable governmental authorities and, in connection therewith, and any signs or lettering in the public corridors or on the doors or visible from the exterior of the Premises must be submitted to Landlord and its architect for written approval of the size, color, design and location of such signs or lettering before installation, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (Landlord hereby agreeing that, subject to the provisions of this paragraph, Tenant may place an exterior sign on the third floor at the northeast corner of the Building); (c) pay, as they become due, all charges for utilities for the Premises and contract for same in Tenant's name, and Tenant acknowledges that the electricity for lights, outlets and air conditioning for the Premises shall be separately metered (the installation of such separate meters being part of -6- 7 Landlord's Work); (d) keep the Premises in a neat, clean, sanitary condition and in good order and repair (making replacements as necessary) including, without limitation, doors, locks, hardware, carpets, walls, ceilings, lighting, windows, plumbing, electrical, sewage, mechanical, air conditioning, ventilating and heating equipment, and all fixtures and equipment appurtenant to the Premises, provided that if Tenant makes capital expenditures necessary for repair or replacement of the HVAC systems serving the Premises during the final two (2) years of the Term (as extended), Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the unamortized cost of such capital expenditures at the end of the Term (based on the useful life of the item). By way of example, if Tenant replaces the compressor in the HVAC system on the first day of the sixth (6th) lease year of the initial term at a cost of $1,000, and if the useful life of the compressor is five (5) years, then Landlord would reimburse Tenant on the last day of the Term for three-fifths of the cost of the compressor ($600), and Tenant would bear the remainder of the cost ($400), which would represent the two (2) years of use of the compressor of which Tenant had the benefit. In the foregoing example, if Tenant exercised its option to extend the term for an additional five-year period, then Tenant would bear 100% of the cost of the compressor. (e) maintain kitchen areas and all similar areas in a clean and sanitary condition free of all vermin, wash any dishes and perform any cleaning necessary to maintain kitchen areas or any other areas in the Premises in which beverages or foods may be prepared or dispensed; be responsible for any damage to the Premises arising out of frozen sprinkler system pipes caused by Tenant's failure to keep windows or doors in the Premises closed during cold weather; replace broken glass with the same quality glass; and in any event at such times as may reasonably be required to keep the Premises attractive in appearance; not overload, damage or deface the Premises; properly store and dispose of all trash using services (if any) designated by Landlord; and place and maintain business machines and mechanical equipment and Tenant's other personal property in settings sufficient to absorb and prevent vibration, noise and annoyance; (f) make Improvements and Repairs of whatever nature required by Laws or Insurance Regulations, except that Tenant shall not be required to make any structural Improvements, unless required as a result of Tenant's Improvements to or use of the Premises; (g) pay for all repairs and replacements to the Premises, the Building and the Property required by Tenant's misuse or negligence; (h) not act in any manner which prevents Landlord or Tenant from obtaining, or makes void or voidable, any insurance, or creates extra premiums for or increases the rate of, insurance, and if Tenant causes extra premiums or increased rates, Tenant will pay the increased cost to Landlord upon demand; (i) not act in any manner which prevents Landlord or Tenant from obtaining, or causes the revocation of, any government license, permit, or authority, and if as a direct or indirect result of Tenant's business an addition to or change in the same is required by Laws or Insurance Regulations, Tenant shall pay for the addition or change; (j) not use, permit or suffer anything to be done in the Premises or anything to be brought into or kept in the Premises, in either case, which occasions undue discomfort or annoyance to any other tenants or occupants of the Building, or which in Landlord's reasonable judgment may tend to impair the reputation or appearance of the Building or tend to interfere with the proper and economic operation of the Building by Landlord, not use the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be used, for the preparation or dispensing of food, whether by vending machines or otherwise, provided that subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article and this Lease, Tenant may install at its own expense so-called hot-cold water fountains, -7- 8 coffee makers, beverage vending machines, microwave ovens, refrigerators, sinks and stoves ("kitchen areas") for the preparation of beverages and foods for consumption on the Premises by Tenant's employees only, provided that no cooking, frying, etc. are carried on in the Premises to such extent as requires special exhaust venting, and provided further that the installation and operation of such kitchen areas shall not result in any increase in Landlord's insurance premiums or costs, unless such increase is fully paid for, in advance, by Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges that the Building is not engineered to provide any such special venting; (k) not assign, mortgage, license, transfer or encumber this Lease of the Premises in whole or in part, or sublease all or any portion of the Premises (each of the foregoing being a "Transfer") without Landlord's consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and any purported Transfer shall be void and confer no rights upon any third person unless Tenant first receives Landlord's prior written consent. If there is a Transfer, Landlord may collect rent from the transferee without waiving the prohibition against Transfers, accepting the transferee, or releasing Tenant from full performance under this Lease, and, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease on thirty (30) days written notice within sixty (60) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord of any Transfer, or within one (1) year after Landlord first learns of the Transfer if no notice is given. In addition, Landlord shall be entitled to fifty percent (50%) of all consideration which Tenant receives from a sublessee or assignee (whether in a lump sum, periodic installments or otherwise) in excess of the Base Rent and Additional Rent due from Tenant under this Lease, less reasonable brokerage fees incurred by Tenant in connection with such sublease or assignment; and (l) abide by the Rules and Regulations attached as EXHIBIT B and any other reasonable rules and regulations made by Landlord from time to time such rules and regulations to be applied in a consistent, non-discriminatory fashion for all tenants except where leases or circumstances require otherwise.

Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all actions (including, without limitation, remedial or enforcement actions of any kind, administrative or judicial proceedings, and orders or judgments arising -8- 9 out of or resulting therefrom), costs, claims, damages (including, without limitation, punitive damages), reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys', consultants' and experts' fees, court costs and amounts paid in settlement of any claims or actions), fines, forfeitures or other civil, administrative or criminal penalties, injunctive or other relief (whether or not based upon personal injury, property damage, or contamination of, or adverse effects upon, the environment, water tables or natural resources), liabilities or losses arising from a breach of this prohibition by Tenant, its affiliates, agents, employees, contractors, sublessees, assignees or invitees.

The amount and coverage of Tenant's insurance shall not limit Tenant's liability nor relieve Tenant of any obligation under this Lease. 7.2 TENANT'S RISK. Except as modified by statute, all merchandise, furniture, fixtures and property which may be on or about the Premises, Building or Property shall be at the sole risk and hazard of Tenant. 7.3 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS. All insurance policies shall be with companies qualified to do business in the state in which the Premises are located and acceptable to Landlord, and shall name Landlord, and if Landlord so requests, Landlord's mortgagee(s) and any other party, as insured parties on casualty policies and additional named insureds on liability policies. In addition, all liability insurance obtained by Tenant shall be (a) primary insurance as to all claims thereunder and provide that any insurance carried by Landlord is not excess and is non-contributing with any insurance of Tenant; (b) contain cost liability endorsements or a severability of interest clause acceptable to Landlord; (c) be written on an occurrence basis; and (d) specifically cover the liability assumed by Tenant under this Lease including, but not limited to, Tenant's obligations under Section 7.4. Tenant shall deliver a copy of the policies or certificates of all insurance to Landlord prior to the earlier of entry on the Premises or the Commencement Date, and copies of the new policies or new certificates not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of each policy. Each policy shall provide (and the certificate shall evidence) that it will not expire, or be cancelled or modified without thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord and, if Landlord requests, to Landlord's mortgagee(s). If Tenant fails to deliver a policy or certificate to Landlord as required or if any policy is cancelled or modified during the term without Landlord's consent, Landlord may obtain such insurance on behalf of Tenant in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, as additional rent, for the cost of such insurance plus interest at the rate set forth in Section 4.1 within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a statement indicating the cost of such insurance. 7.4 INDEMNITY. Tenant shall save Landlord harmless, and shall exonerate and indemnify Landlord from all claims, liabilities, penalties and expenses arising (a) in connection with death, injury and/or property damage on or related to the Premises which Tenant acknowledges are, subject to the terms of the Lease, under Tenant's exclusive or substantial control, charge, custody and possession (except to the extent caused by any act or omission of Landlord, its agents contractors, or employees), or (b) anywhere if caused wholly or in part by any act or omission of Tenant, its officers, agents, employees, other occupants of the Premises or Tenant's invitees. If Landlord is threatened with or made a party to any litigation commenced by or against Tenant or any of the above parties, or with respect to any matter described above, Tenant shall indemnify and defend Landlord with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord or, at Landlord's option, shall advance to Landlord all costs including reasonable attorney's fees in connection with such litigation. All of the foregoing shall be limited to the extent required by Law. 7.5 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. (a) Landlord and Tenant release each other and each other's officers, directors, employees and agents from liability or responsibility for any loss or damage to their respective property covered by valid and collectible insurance, or which would have been covered if the party complied with the provisions of this Lease. The release shall apply to the parties and anyone claiming through or under the parties by way of subrogation or otherwise, and even if the occurrence was caused by the fault or negligence of a party or anyone for whom a party is responsible, provided the release shall be applicable only for loss or damage occurring when the releasor's policies provide that the release shall not adversely affect the policies or the releasor's recovery rights. Landlord and -12- 13 Tenant each agree that its policies will include such a provision if available without extra cost, or if the other party pays the extra cost, and each promptly shall notify the other of any extra cost. (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease and subject to applicable law, (i) Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage, whether or not such loss or damage is caused by the negligence of Landlord, its agents, servants or employees, to the extent that such loss or damage is covered by valid and enforceable insurance carried by Tenant; and (ii) Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord for any loss or damage, whether or not such loss or damage is caused by the negligence of Tenant or its agents, servants or employees, to the extent that such loss or damage is covered by valid and enforceable insurance carried by Landlord. 7.6 LANDLORD'S INSURANCE. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that, on the date of this Lease, Landlord carries insurance with respect to the Building and the Property of the types and in the amounts set forth on EXHIBIT C hereto, and Landlord agrees to maintain throughout the Term such insurance or such other insurance as may be required by Landlord's lender or as may be customary for buildings similar to the Building. ARTICLE VIII - CASUALTIES AND EMINENT DOMAIN 8.1 DAMAGE. If the Premises become untenantable in whole or part because of fire or other casualty covered by insurance, or as the result of a taking of, or damage to, the Premises or the Building as a result of the exercise of any power of eminent domain, condemnation, or purchase under threat or in lieu thereof ("Taking"), then unless the Lease is terminated in accordance with Section 8.2, Landlord, with reasonable dispatch (but subject to delays for adjustment of insurance proceeds and causes beyond Landlord's reasonable control), shall repair the damage so that the Premises are in substantially the same condition as on delivery of possession subject to rights of mortgagees, zoning laws, and building codes then in existence, and provided Landlord shall not be required to expend more than the net insurance proceeds Landlord receives for damage to the Premises or the net Taking award attributable to the Premises. "Net" means the insurance proceeds or award less all costs and expenses, including adjusters and attorney's fees, of obtaining the same. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, (a) Tenant shall be required to pay to Landlord the amount of any deductible under Landlord's insurance policy if the casualty is the result of the acts or omissions of Tenant, its subtenants, assignees or the employee, agents, or visitors of any of such parties and (b) Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to perform all or any portion of the repair which Landlord would otherwise make and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the cost thereof. Tenant immediately shall give written notice to Landlord of any damage to the Premises. 8.2 TERMINATION RIGHTS. (a) If either the Premises or Building are damaged to the extent of 10% or more of its insurable value, or by a risk not covered by Landlord's insurance, or the cost of repair would excess $50,000.00, or the damage is of a character that it cannot reasonably be repaired within sixty (60) days of the date on which repair work commences, or (b) If 25% or more of either (i) the floor area of the Building, or (ii) the land which constitutes the Premises is Taken, then Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant (x) within sixty (60) days after the damage or (y) within six (6) months of the date on which the condemning authority has the right to possession ("Taking Date") in which case the Lease shall terminate as of the Taking Date. If the entire Premises are taken by eminent domain, except for temporary use, this Lease shall terminate automatically as of the Taking Date. -13- 14 8.3 ABATEMENT. If a portion of the Premises is damaged or Taken, except for temporary use, and this Lease is not terminated, the Base Rent and Tenant's Pro Rata Share shall be reduced proportionately based on the area of the Premises damaged and therefore not used by Tenant, or Taken, until the earlier of when Landlord's Repairs to the Premises are completed or Tenant begins using the damaged area. 8.4 TAKING FOR TEMPORARY USE. If the Premises is Taken for temporary use, this Lease and Tenant's obligations shall continue, except to the extent the Taking renders compliance impossible or impracticable. 8.5 DISPOSITION OF AWARDS. Except for any separate award for Tenant's movable trade fixtures or relocation expenses which does not reduce Landlord's award, all Taking awards to Landlord or Tenant shall be Landlord's property without Tenant's participation. Tenant assigns to Landlord Tenant's share of such award, waives any rights with respect to the loss of its leasehold interest and the Premises, and agrees to execute such instruments as may be necessary to confirm the assignment and to deliver to Landlord any such award recovered by Tenant except the separate award described above. ARTICLE IX - DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 9.1 TENANT'S DEFAULT. The following conditions shall be considered a "Default" by Tenant: (a) failure to pay Base Rent or the scheduled amount of any Additional Rent when due, provided that with the first failure to pay on any twelve (12) month period, Tenant shall be entitled to written notice and five (5) day cure period, or failure to pay any unscheduled payment of Additional Rent or any other charge payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder within fifteen (15) days of receipt by Tenant of Landlord's notice that such amount is due; or (b) Tenant's leasehold estate is taken by execution or other process of law; or Tenant is liquidated, dissolved, commits an act of bankruptcy, is declared bankrupt or insolvent according to law or admits in writing its inability to pay debts generally as they become due, or an assignment of Tenant's property is made for the benefit of creditors or a receiver, guardian, conservator, trustee or assignee, or any other similar officer or person is appointed to take charge of any part of Tenant's property; or any reorganization or similar proceedings are commenced by or against Tenant under any bankruptcy or insolvency law and not dismissed within sixty (60) days from its commencement; or any court enters an order providing for the modification of rights of Tenant's creditors; or (c) vacating the Premises or closing for business for an aggregate period during the Term exceeding thirty (30) days except for fire or casualties; or (d) a Transfer without Landlord's prior written consent; or (e) failure to perform or observe any other Lease terms or covenants for a period of thirty (30) days after notice, or if same shall reasonably take longer than thirty (30) days, if Tenant fails to commence same promptly and to complete same with due diligence; or (f) any other breach for which the Lease gives Landlord the right of termination. If Tenant Defaults, Landlord may at any time until the Default is cured either (1) terminate this Lease by written notice effective on the date of the notice or on any date specified in the notice, or (2) without demand or notice, -14- 15 re-enter, take possession and repossess the Premises and, with a court order and at Tenant's risk, expel Tenant and those claiming under Tenant and remove, store and sell their effects at public action, all without prejudice to any remedies for arrearages or preceding Defaults. The net proceeds of any sale shall be applied to sums due to Landlord from Tenant and the balance paid to Tenant. Tenant waives all statutory rights (including rights of redemption) to the extent such rights may be lawfully waived. With or without terminating this Lease, Landlord may re-let all or any part of the Premises from time to time for periods (even if beyond the Term of this Lease), at such rental, and upon the terms and conditions as Landlord deems advisable, and may make Improvements and Repairs to the Premises. No re-entry or taking of possession by Landlord shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord gives a written notice of such intention to Tenant or a court of competent jurisdiction terminates the Lease. 9.2 DAMAGES. Tenant's liability and obligations under this Lease shall survive termination or repossession, and Tenant shall pay as current damages the Base Rent, Additional Rent and other sums up to what would have been the end of the Term in the absence of the termination or repossession, with a credit for the net proceeds, if any, Landlord receives from any reletting of the Premises, after deducting all of Landlord's expenses in connection with the reletting including, without limitation, expenses of preparing the Premises for the reletting. Tenant shall pay the current damages to Landlord on the days Base Rent would have been payable if not for the termination or repossession. In addition, and notwithstanding any Lease provision or the termination of this Lease, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any free rent and construction allowance, and all other reasonable and customary expenses and liabilities incurred by Landlord in connection with Tenant's Default including brokerage commissions, reasonable attorneys' fees, and reasonable alteration costs. Landlord shall have an obligation to use commercially reasonable efforts to re-let the Premises and otherwise to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate damages. After any termination or repossession, whether or not Landlord has collected any current damages, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at Landlord's option and on demand, liquidated final damages in lieu of all current damages beyond the date final damages are paid. The final damages shall be the amount by which (i) all rent and other charges which would be payable from the date to which Tenant paid current damages through what would have been the unexpired Term exceeds (ii) the then fair net rental value of the Premises for the same period. If any law validly limits the amount of final liquidated damages to less than described above, Landlord shall be entitled to the maximum amount legally allowed. For purposes of this Section, the rent is Tenant's highest total Base and Additional Rent due for any twelve (12) month period preceding the termination or repossession. 9.3 LANDLORD'S SELF HELP. If Tenant Defaults, Landlord may, at its option, without waiving its right to terminate this Lease or its claim for damages, cure the Default, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any amount paid or contractual liability incurred by Landlord in doing so; provided Landlord may immediately cure any Default or failure by Tenant to perform any Lease obligation if the cure or performance is reasonably necessary to protect the Premises or Landlord's interests, or to prevent injury or damage to persons or property. If Tenant fails to reimburse Landlord upon demand, such amount shall be added to the next payment of rent due without further notice. Landlord agrees to give Tenant prior notice of Landlord's intention to enter the Premises for the purposes of exercising such self-help right, except in case of emergency. 9.4 LANDLORD'S DEFAULT. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder unless its default continues for thirty (30) days, or such additional time as is reasonably required to correct its default, after Tenant has given written notice to Landlord specifying the nature of the alleged default. If Landlord is in default, Landlord shall use due diligence to commence curing the -15- 16 default within a reasonable time after receipt of notice thereof. ARTICLE X - SUBORDINATION 10.1 SUBORDINATION. Tenant's rights and interests under this Lease shall be (i) subject and subordinate to any existing or future mortgages, deeds of trust, overlease, or similar instruments covering the Premises and to all advances, modifications, renewals, replacements, and extensions ("Mortgages") provided Tenant receives from each Mortgagee (which shall include ground lessor) a Non-Disturbance Agreement whereby Tenant's rights to possess the Premises shall not be disturbed in the event of a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage, or (ii) if the Mortgagee elects, prior to the lien of any present or future Mortgagee. Tenant further shall attorn to and recognize any successor landlord, whether through foreclosure or otherwise, as if the successor landlord were the originally named Landlord. Tenant concurrently shall give Mortgagee the same notices given to Landlord, and Mortgagee shall have the same opportunity and rights to cure as is available to Landlord to cure a default provided Mortgagee shall have an additional thirty (30) days after the expiration of Landlord's cure period within which to commence a cure or such longer period as may be reasonably necessary including, without limitation, any period of time reasonably required for the Mortgagee to obtain possession of the Property or the Premises from Landlord. Mortgagee's curing of any of Landlord's default shall be treated as performance by Landlord. Although this Section shall be self-executing and no further instrument shall be necessary, Landlord agrees to give Tenant written notice of any Mortgages, and Tenant shall execute and deliver any instruments Landlord reasonably requires for the above purposes, provided that Tenant receives a Non-Disturbance Agreement from the Mortgagee as set forth above. An assignment of lease or similar document shall not result in the assignee having any liability until the assignee takes possession. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a so-called "non-disturbance agreement" for Tenant from any existing and future mortgagees. 10.2 REQUEST BY MORTGAGEE. If a Mortgagee or prospective Mortgagee requests any Lease modifications which do not have a material adverse effect on Tenant's rights, Tenant will enter into a written modification agreement in recordable form (which shall have the same force as a Lease amendment) if the Mortgagee forecloses or takes similar action. The modification shall not affect the length of the Term or the size, use, or location of the Premises. ARTICLE XI - MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 11.1 PARTIES BOUND. Except as otherwise provided, the Lease agreements and conditions to be performed and observed by Landlord or Tenant shall bind and inure to the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of each, provided no reference to Tenant's successors and assigns will constitute a consent to a Transfer by Tenant. If Tenant consists of more than one person or entity, or if there is a guarantor, then all such persons, entities and guarantors shall be jointly and severally liable and the word "Tenant," as used in this Lease, including Article IX, includes such person, entities, and guarantors. The word "Landlord" means only the owner, or the lessee if this Lease becomes subject to an overlease, or the mortgagee in possession of the Premises, for the time being, so that if the Premises is sold, a mortgagee takes possession, or another becomes landlord, all prior landlords, including Landlord, automatically shall be entirely relieved of all landlord covenants and obligations accruing thereafter. If the entity which holds Landlord's interest in this Lease is a trust, then the Landlord obligations shall be binding upon the trustees of said trust, as trustees and not individually, and not upon the trust estate. -16- 17 11.2 LANDLORD'S LIABILITIES AND ADDITIONAL RIGHTS. (a) Landlord shall have no obligations or liability with respect to or in any way connected with the Premises or the Building, or services to be provided from same, except to the extent, if any, specifically set forth in the Lease. Landlord shall not be deemed to have committed a breach of any repair obligations unless it makes repairs negligently or fails to commence repairs within a reasonable time after Landlord receives notice from Tenant, and Landlord's liability in any case shall be limited to the cost of making the required repairs. (b) Landlord shall not be liable for indirect or consequential damages for any reason, or for any inconvenience, interruption or consequences resulting from the failure of utilities or any service, making repairs, improvements or resulting from leaks of steam, gas, electricity, water, or any other substance from pipes, wires or other conduits, or from the bursting or stoppage thereof, or from leaks of water, snow, or rain from the plumbing, roof, or for wetness or dampness for any reason. (c) Tenant agrees for itself and each succeeding holder of Tenant's interest, or any portion thereof, that any judgment, decree or award obtained against Landlord, or any succeeding owner of Landlord's interest, which is related to this Lease or the Premises, whether at law or in equity, shall be satisfied out of Landlord's equity in the Premises, and further agrees to look only such assets and to no other assets of Landlord for satisfaction. In no event shall Tenant have the right to deduct any amount allegedly owed to Tenant from any rent or other sums payable to Landlord hereunder, Tenant's sole remedy being an independent action against Landlord for such claim. (d) Landlord reserves the right at any time or times during the Term and without charge, abatement or reduction in rent, after prior reasonable notice to Tenant (except in the case of an emergency) (i) to examine the Premises at reasonable times; (ii) to show the Premises at reasonable times commencing six (6) months prior to the end of the Term; (iii) to put up "For Sale" or "For Rent" signs, which signs Tenant shall not move, remove, block or otherwise interfere with; (iv) to perform such work as may be required by this Lease, any public authority, or to facilitate making repairs or improvements to the Building, the Property or any portion thereof, provided that unless any such work is of an emergency nature, Landlord shall give reasonable notice and shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant's operations; (v) to make repairs which Tenant fails to make promptly; and (vi) to enter upon the Premises for the foregoing purposes. 11.3 COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. Each term and each provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant shall be construed to be both a covenant and a condition. 11.4 COSTS AND EXPENSES. Acts to be done by Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be at the cost and expense of Tenant unless a contrary intent is expressed. In addition, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any costs or expenses incurred in connection with enforcement of this Lease by Landlord. 11.5 HOLDING OVER. If Tenant or anyone claiming under it holds over after end of the Term, the party shall, prior to Landlord's acceptance of rent, be a tenant at sufferance, and, after Landlord's acceptance of rent, be a tenant at will subject to the provisions of this Lease insofar as the same may be made applicable to a tenancy at will; provided that Tenant shall pay Base Rent for the period of such tenancy at the greater of 1.75 times the highest rate of Base Rent payable during the Term or market rent, and, in addition, Tenant shall be liable for all damages incurred by Landlord (including consequential damages) as a result of the holding over. 11.6 QUIET ENJOYMENT. Provided Tenant timely pays all rent and performs and observe the terms, conditions and covenants of the Lease, Tenant may -17- 18 peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises as provided in the Lease, without hindrance or molestation from Landlord or anyone claiming legally under Landlord, subject to the terms of this Lease and any instruments having priority. 11.7 NO BROKERAGE. Tenant warrants and represents that it has dealt with no broker in connection with this Lease except the Broker (if any). Tenant agrees to defend and indemnify Landlord against any brokerage claims related to this Lease other than by the Broker. Landlord shall pay all commissions due to Broker in accordance with a separate agreement. 11.8 CERTIFICATES. Within ten (10) days after Landlord's request, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord or to any prospective Mortgagee or purchaser (a) an estoppel certificate in recordable form stating such information as Landlord reasonably requests, and the certificate shall be binding on Tenant, and (b) such financial statements as Landlord reasonably requires to verify the net worth of Tenant or any Transferee or Guarantor of Tenant, and Tenant represents and warrants that each such financial statement shall be true and accurate as of the date thereof. All financial statements shall be confidential and shall be used only for the purposes relating to this Lease or the Property. Landlord agrees to deliver to Tenant within ten (10) days after Tenant's request, an estoppel certificate stating whether this Lease is in full force and effect and whether Landlord is aware of any defaults hereunder and providing such other information as is reasonable and customary in a landlord's estoppel. 11.9 NOTICES. Any notice, consent, or other communication relating to this Lease shall be given in writing and by hand, by registered or certified mail or overnight express mail such as "Federal Express", postage or charges prepaid, to the other party's Notice Address or for Tenant to the Premises, to such other address or addresses as may be designated by the party by notice, and if to a Mortgagee, to such address as the Mortgagee shall designate. 11.10 NO WAIVER. Landlord's or Tenant's failure to complain of any act or omission of the other, no matter how long it continues, shall not be deemed a waiver of any of Landlord's or Tenant's rights. Landlord's or Tenant's waiver, express or implied, of any breach of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of a breach of any other provision or a consent to any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision. Landlord's or Tenant's consent to or approval to any action on one occasion shall not be deemed a consent to or approval of any other action or to such action on any subsequent occasion. Tenant's payment or Landlord's acceptance of a lesser amount than is due from Tenant to Landlord shall not be deemed anything but payment on account and Landlord's acceptance of a check for a lesser amount with an endorsement or statement thereon or upon a letter accompanying the check that the lesser amount is payment in full shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept the check without prejudice to recover the balance due or pursue any other remedy. All of Landlord's and Tenant's rights and remedies under this Lease or by operation of law, either at law or in equity, for any breach shall be distinct, separate, cumulative and non-exclusive and shall not be deemed inconsistent with each other. 11.11 FORCE MAJEURE. If Landlord's or Tenant's performance of any act (other than the payment of money) is delayed, or prevented because of strikes, lockouts, labor troubles, inability to procure materials, power failures, restrictive Laws, riots, insurrection, war, collection of insurance proceeds or taking awards or other causes beyond Landlord's or Tenant's reasonable control, then Landlord's or Tenant's performance shall be excused for the period of the delay and any time period shall be extended for an equivalent period. 11.12 RECORDING. Tenant shall not record this Lease, but may record a memorandum in form acceptable to Landlord and Tenant hereof. Any breach of this covenant shall cause this Lease to terminate automatically, if Landlord so elects in writing. -18- 19 11.13 PARAGRAPH HEADINGS. All paragraph headings are for convenience and reference only, and shall not be held to explain, modify, amplify or aid in the construction, interpretation or meaning of the provisions of this Lease. 11.14 GOVERNING LAW. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the state in which the Premises are located. 11.15 SEPARABILITY; CONSTRUCTION AND INTERPRETATION. If any Lease term or provision or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of the term or provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected, and the Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any Lease provision is capable of two constructions, then the provision shall have the meaning which renders it valid. 11.16 WHEN LEASE BECOMES BINDING; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. Landlord's employees or agents have no authority to make or agree to make a lease or any other agreement or undertaking, and the submission of this document for examination and negotiation does not constitute an offer to lease, or a reservation of, or option for, the Premises, and this document shall become effective and binding only upon the execution and delivery by both Landlord and Tenant. All negotiations, considerations, representations, and understandings between Landlord and Tenant are incorporated herein, and no oral statements or prior or contemporaneous written matter, whether by the parties or otherwise, which is not specifically incorporated herein shall be of any force or effect. In entering into this Lease, Tenant relies solely upon the representations and agreements contained herein. This Lease shall not be modified except by writing executed by both parties and no act or omission of any employee or agent of Landlord shall alter, change or modify any of the provisions hereof. 11.17 SECURITY DEPOSIT.Within seven (7) days after full execution and delivery of this Lease by the parties hereto, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord an irrevocable standby letter of credit in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in the amount of $650,000.00 (the "Security Deposit") as security for the faithful performance and observance by Tenant of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease. It is agreed that in the event Tenant defaults in respect of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease, Landlord may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the Security Deposit to the extent required for payment of any Rent or any other sum as to which Tenant is in default or for any sum which Landlord may expend or may be required to expend by reason of Tenant's default in respect of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, including but not limited to any damage or deficiency accrued before or after summary proceedings or other reentry by Landlord, including the costs of such proceeding or reentry and further including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees. It is agreed that Landlord shall always have the right to apply the Security Deposit, or any part thereof, as aforesaid, without notice and without prejudice to any other remedy or remedies which Landlord may have, or Landlord may pursue any other such remedy or remedies in lieu of applying the Security Deposit or any part thereof. No interest shall be payable on the Security Deposit. If Landlord shall use, apply or retain the Security Deposit in whole or in part and the Lease continues or Tenant's occupancy continues in the Premises, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after written notice form the Landlord make such further or other deposit of monies as may be necessary to bring the balance of the deposit to a sum equal to the initial Security Deposit. In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Lease, the Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant within ninety (90) days after the date fixed as the end of the Lease and after delivery of entire possession of the Premises to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease. In the event of a sale or other transfer of the Building, or leasing of the entire Building including the Premises subject to Tenant's tenancy hereunder, Landlord shall transfer the Security Deposit then remaining to the -19- 20 vendee or lessee and Landlord shall thereupon be released from all liability for the return of such Security Deposit to Tenant; and Tenant agrees to look solely to the new Landlord for the return of said Security Deposit then remaining. The holder of any mortgage upon the Building or Lot shall never be responsible to Tenant for the Security Deposit or its application or return unless the Security Deposit shall actually have been received in hand by such holder. Tenant further covenants that it will not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the Security Deposit and that neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns shall be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Tenant, during the term of this Lease, raises in excess of $25,000,000.00 in equity capital, the amount of the Security Deposit required hereunder shall be reduced to $325,000.00, and in the event that Tenant, during the term of this Lease, raises in excess of $50,000,000.00 in equity capital, then Landlord agrees to return the unused portion of the Security Deposit to Tenant. Landlord agrees to notify Tenant in the event that Landlord intends to draw upon the Security Deposit, but the giving of such notice shall not be a precondition to the exercise of Landlord's rights to draw upon the Security Deposit. -20- 21 11.18 EXECUTION. This Lease may be executed in any number of original counterparts. Each fully executed counterpart shall be deemed an original for all purposes. EXECUTED AS A SEALED INSTRUMENT.
