         (D)  If for any reason the Lessee does not receive a permit for the
              management of its business, this shall not exempt the Lessee from

                   Company, and the Company shall be entitled to refuse to
                   approve the submission of such plan, if it is of the opinion
                   that approval of the plan as stated is liable to prejudice
                   any of its buildings rights or other rights.

              (3)  If notwithstanding the aforesaid, the Lessee erects the
                   Addition in the Leasehold, without a lawful building permit,

                   and the division thereof by the area of the Leasehold
                   (hereinafter: the "ADDITIONAL RENT"). To eliminate doubt,

                   existing in the Leasehold on the date of signature of this
                   Agreement.

              (5)  The Additional Rent shall be paid from the date of completion
                   of the erection of the gallery floor.

                   Additional Rent specified in subclause (B) (4) above, shall
                   apply to the Lessee whether it received the Company's consent
                   to the erection of the Addition, or not, and whether it
                   received a building permit, or not.

                   and shall be subject to all the relevant provisions in this
                   Agreement.

         (C)  If the Company is required to pay betterment tax in respect of an
              Addition and/or pergola and/or gallery erected by the Lessee,
              whether the Company's consent was received therefor or not, the
              Lessee shall be obligated to pay the betterment tax or, where the
              betterment tax was paid by the Company, to reimburse the amount
              thereof to the Company, within 7 days from the date of dispatch of

              accordance with this Agreement, whether for the reason specified
              in this clause or for any other reason specified in this
              Agreement, it shall be obligated to return exclusive possession
              thereof, together with the keys, the Leasehold being absolutely
              vacant and in good condition and fit for immediate use, excluding
              reasonable wear.

              At the time of the vacation, a delivery protocol shall be drawn up
              detailing the faults that were found and which the Lessee is
              responsible for repairing (hereinafter: the "FAULTS"). The Company
              shall permit the Lessee to repair the faults within 7 days. If the
              faults were not repaired within the said time, the Company shall
              be entitled to repair the faults by itself and to debit the Lessee
              the cost thereof against the presentation of receipts.

              Additionally, the Lessee shall furnish to the Company, at the end
              of the Lease Period or upon the actual vacation of the Leasehold,
              confirmations from the electricity company and the local authority
              that the Lessee has no debt in respect of electricity consumption
              and/or water consumption and/or taxes and/or fees to the local
              authority, in respect of the Leasehold, up to the end of the Lease
              Period or up to the date of actual vacation, whichever date is
              later.

         (B)  Without derogating from that stated in clause 5 above, if the
              Lessee fails to vacate the Leasehold as provided above in
              subclause (A) of this clause, the Lessee shall pay the Company
              liquidated damages (hereinafter: the "COMPENSATION") for each day
              of delay, in an amount equivalent to twice the amount of the Rent
              due in respect of the Leasehold for one day of rent in the last
              month of the last year of the lease. The Compensation shall be
              linked to the Consumer Price Index, as defined in clause 3 (A)
              above, and the linkage differences shall be calculated by the
              Company, mutatis mutandis, each and every month. The amount of the
              Compensation together with the added linkage differences shall be
              paid not later than 7 days from the date of the demand.

              The aforesaid shall not prejudice and/or derogate from any right
              of the Company, including its right to receive the Compensation
              specified above in this subclause (B), even if in actual fact the
              Company issued to the Lessee a demand and/or invoice for payment
              of the Rent.

              Furthermore, that stated above in subclause (B) shall not
              prejudice and/or derogate from the Company's right to demand the
              vacation of the Leasehold. That stated in this clause prevails
              over any other provision in this Agreement.

              To eliminate doubt, the Lessee's obligation under this clause
              shall continue to apply after the end of the Lease Period up to
              the actual vacation of the Leasehold.


                                      -15-


         (C)  Upon the expiration of the validity of this Agreement, or in case
              this Agreement is canceled by the Company or an order is issued
              for the eviction of the Lessee from the Leasehold, if the Lessee
              fails immediately to vacate the Leasehold, the Company shall be
              entitled to exercise any security and/or guarantee furnished to it
              by the Lessee, that was not presented for payment prior to the
              notice of cancellation of the Lease Agreement and/or the issuance
              of the eviction order, for partial coverage of the Compensation,
              as defined in subclause (B) above, which is due to the Company in
              respect of the period from the cancellation of the Agreement or
              issuance of the order as stated and up to the actual vacation of
              the Leasehold.

              That stated in this subclause shall not constitute the Company's
              waiver of any of its rights against the Lessee under this
              Agreement or in accordance with the law, or the granting of leave
              to the Lessee to use the Leasehold following the cancellation of
              the Lease Agreement or handing down of the eviction order as
              stated.

              The cancellation of this Agreement in accordance with the
              provisions of clause 21 below shall not derogate from the Lessee's
              obligations as stated above in this clause.

         (D)  Without prejudice to any of the Company's rights under this
              Agreement, at the end of the Lease Period and/or following the
              cancellation of this Agreement by the Company, and/or where the
              Lessee defaulted on two consecutive payments of Rent to the
              Company, if the Lessee fails to vacate the Leasehold and/or to
              return possession of the Leasehold to the Company, the Leasehold
              being free from any person and object, the Company shall be
              entitled to take possession of the Leasehold after notifying the
              Lessee in writing of the date of taking of possession.

              The Company shall be entitled to act as aforesaid and to remove
              all the effects found in the Leasehold and to store them as it in
              its absolute discretion shall see fit, in any other place, and/or
              to sell them to a third party at its exclusive discretion. The
              costs of the removal, storage and sale shall devolve upon and be
              paid by the Lessee. The Company shall be entitled to deduct from
              the price of the sale (if there be any) its costs in respect of
              the vacation, the storage and the sale.

              If the Leasehold was vacated by the Company or the equipment
              stored or sold as stated above in this subclause, the Lessee shall
              not have any defense plea and/or other contention against the
              Company in connection with such vacation, storage or sale.

         (E)  The Company shall be entitled to take possession of the Leasehold
              and/or to prevent the Lessee from using the Leasehold (including
              the replacement of locks in the Leasehold), in case the Lessee
              fails to pay the Company two consecutive payments of the Rent,
              provided notice was given in writing.

              The Company's books shall be prima facie evidence of the Lessee's
              debt in to the Company in respect of the Rent.


                                      -16-


         (F)  In addition to that stated in subclause (C) above, the Bank
              Guarantee shall serve as security for the settlement of all the
              Lessee's debts to the local planning and building commission, to
              the local authority (including debts in respect of water
              consumption) and/or to the electricity company and the
              telecommunications company in respect of the Leasehold.

19.      LESSEE'S OBLIGATION TO EFFECT PAYMENTS

              The Lessee is obligated to pay the Company the full Rent and all
              the other payments which it undertook to pay in accordance with
              this Agreement, whether it used the Leasehold or not and whatever
              the reason may be for nonuse of the Leasehold, except for nonuse
              due to force majeure. The Lessee shall not be entitled and shall
              be barred from raising any contention against its absolute
              liability to pay the Company Rent in accordance with this
              Agreement. The exception with respect to force majeure shall not
              apply to the Additional Payment as defined in clause 4(C) above.
