D. Lessee and Lessor now desire to amend the Lease with respect to the
First Expansion Premises and the Second Expansion Premises, and enter into
certain other agreements with respect to the Lease, all as more particularly
provided for herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Lessor and Lessee hereby agree as
follows:
1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms in this First Amendment not
-------------
otherwise defined herein shall have the same definitions as are provided
therefor in the Lease.
2. First Expansion Premises.
------------------------
2.1 Lease of First Expansion Premises. Commencing on the date upon
---------------------------------
which Lessor substantially completes construction of the First Expansion
Premises Improvements (as hereinafter defined) and delivers possession of the
First Expansion Premises and Lessee (the applicable date being referred to
herein as the "First Expansion Commencement Date"), Lessor hereby leases to
Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the First Expansion Premises on
all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Lease with respect to the
Lessee's obligations thereunder, as modified hereby. As of the First Expansion
Commencement Date, the term "Premises," as defined in Section 1.2 of the Lease,
shall be modified to mean the Original Premises (as it existed immediately prior
to the First Expansion Commencement Date) together with the First Expansion
Premises.
2.2 Rentable Area of the Premises. As of the First Expansion
-----------------------------
Commencement Date, the number of square feet of rentable square footage of the
Premises set forth in Section 1.2 of the Lease shall be increased by 8,700 to
approximately 52,700 rentable square feet.
2.3 Term of Lease With Respect to First Expansion Premises. The term
------------------------------------------------------
of the Lease with respect to the First Expansion Premises shall commence on the
First Expansion Commencement Date, and shall expire on the Expiration Date (as
defined in Section 1.3 of the Lease) (i.e., May 31, 2005).
2.4 First Expansion Premises Base Rent. As of the First Expansion
----------------------------------
Commencement Date, the monthly Base Rent under the Lease attributable to the
First Expansion Premises shall be $5,655.00 per month (and shall be in addition
to Base Rent due and owing for the Original Premises). Said Base Rent
attributable to the First Expansion Premises shall be paid to Lessor in
accordance with Paragraph 4 of the Lease.
2.5 First Expansion Premises Base Rent C.P.I. Increases. On the one
---------------------------------------------------
year anniversary of the First Expansion Commencement Date, and on June 1, 2000,
and December 1, 2002, the monthly Base Rent payable by Lessee under the Lease
with respect to the First Expansion Premises shall be adjusted by the increase,
if any, in the Consumer Price Index of the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the
U.S. Department for Labor for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, Los
Angeles-Anaheim-Riverside, California, herein referred to as "C.P.I." pursuant
to the following provisions:
a. The monthly Base Rent for the First Expansion Premises
payable in accordance with this Subparagraph 2.5 shall be calculated as follows:
the $5,655.00 First Expansion Premises Base Rent shall be multiplied by a
fraction the numerator of which shall be the C.P.I. of the calendar month that
is three (3) months prior to the month during which the adjustment is to take
effect,
and the denominator of which shall be the C.P.I. for the calendar month that is
three (3) months prior to the First Expansion Commencement Date. The sum so
calculated shall constitute the adjusted monthly Base Rent for the First
Expansion Premises, but in no event shall such new monthly First Expansion
Premises Base Rent be less than the monthly First Expansion Premises Base Rent
in effect immediately preceding the adjustment.
b. In the event that the compilation and/or publication of the
C.P.I. shall be transferred to any other governmental department or bureau or
agency or shall be discontinued, then the index most nearly the same as the
C.P.I. shall be used to make such calculation. In the event that Lessor and
Lessee cannot agree on such alternative index, then the matter shall be
submitted for decision to the American Arbitration Association in accordance
with the then rules of said association and the decision of the arbitrators
shall be binding upon the parties. The cost of said arbitration shall be paid

Expansion Premises) to the total rentable square footage contained in the
Building. Lessee shall continue to be liable for Operating Expenses arising
prior to the First Expansion Commencement Date based on Lessee's Share existing
prior to the First Expansion Commencement Date, and for the Operating Expenses
arising on and after the First Expansion Commencement Date based on Lessee's
Share applicable on the First Expansion Commencement Date. Lessee's obligations
to pay estimated and actual amounts toward Operating Expenses for the year in
which the First Expansion Commencement Date occurs shall be prorated by Lessor
to reflect the different amounts of Lessee's Share during such year.

payment shall be subject to such adjustment as may be necessary to fully satisfy
the balance of the principal and interest due hereunder.

Maker contained in the Lease or this Note, Lender shall make disbursements of
principal hereunder in accordance with Paragraph 4.2 of the above described
First Amendment to Lease, the provisions of which are hereby incorporated herein
by this reference as though set forth in full.
This Note is hereby cross-defaulted with the Lease, such that (i) any
Breach under this Note or in the performance and observance of any provisions of
any other agreement pertaining hereto shall be deemed, at the option of Lender,
a default under the Lease; and (ii) any Breach under the Lease after the lapse
of any applicable cure period shall be deemed, at the option of Lender, a Breach
hereunder.
The Maker shall have the right to prepay this Note at any time.
All sums due under this Note are payable at the place or places as above
stated in legal tender of the United States of America current on the dates such
sums or payments are respectively due. Any remittances by check or draft shall
be credited on the date of receipt subject to the condition that such check or
draft may be handled for collection in accordance with the practice of the
collecting bank or banks and any receipt issued therefor shall be void unless
the amount due is actually received by the Lender or other holder hereof.
If any payment herein provided for, or any part thereof, shall become five
(5) days or more overdue, each and every such late payment, or part thereof,
shall bear simple interest at the rate of fourteen percent (14%) per annum (the
"Default Rate") from its due date until date of payment.
In the event that any installment of interest or principal payable
hereunder is not paid within five (5) days after the date that it is due, then a
late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount past due shall be due and
payable in addition to such past due amount. Maker and Lender agree that the
10
late charge payable under this paragraph represents a good faith and fair and
reasonable estimate of the probable extraordinary cost to Lender of Maker's
delinquency in payment of any sum due and payable hereunder. The right to
collect such late charge shall be in addition to all other rights granted to
Lender hereunder.
If Breach be made in the payment of the whole or any part of any of the
several payments of this Note when due, or in the performance of any of the
terms, agreements, covenants or conditions contained in the Lease after the
lapse of any applicable cure period (exclusive of non-material, non-monetary
Breaches under the Lease), then, or at any time thereafter during the
continuance of any such Breach, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note
together with any interest accrued thereon shall, at the election of the holder
hereof, and without notice of such election and without demand or presentment,
become immediately due and payable at the place of payment aforesaid, and the
principal balance together with any interest accrued thereon, so accelerated and
declared due as aforesaid, shall thereafter bear simple interest at the Default
Rate until paid.
If any Breach be made as hereinabove set forth, the failure of the Lender
or other holder hereof promptly to exercise its right to declare the
indebtedness remaining unpaid hereunder to be immediately due and payable or the
acceptance of one or more payments from any person thereafter, shall not
constitute a waiver of such right while any default continues nor a waiver of
such right in connection with any future default.
The Maker and any endorsers hereof and all others who may become liable for
all or any part of this obligation, severally waive presentment for payment,
demand and protest and notice of protest, and of dishonor and non-payment of
this Note.
In the event that suit be brought hereon, or an attorney employed or
expenses be incurred to compel payment of this Note or any portion of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby, the undersigned promises to pay all such
reasonable expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees.
This Note may not be changed orally but only by an agreement in writing,
signed by the party against whom enforcement or any waiver, change, modification
or discharge is sought. Written notices required to be given hereunder shall be
given as provided in the Lease.

---------------------------------
$240,000.00 Inglewood, California June __, 1998
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, SIGNATURE EYEWEAR, INC., a California
corporation (herein designated as the "Maker"), agrees and promises to pay to
the order of ROXBURY PROPERTY MANAGEMENT, a California general partnership
(herein designated as the "Lender"), at such place or places as the Lender or
other holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing, the principal
sum of Two Hundred Forty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($240,000.00), or so much
thereof as actually disbursed by the Lender, and to pay interest on the balance
thereof actually disbursed from time to time remaining unpaid from the date
hereof until May 1, 2005 (the "Maturity Date"), at the rate of ten percent (10%)
per annum, principal and interest to be payable in monthly installments on the
first day of each calendar month sufficient to fully amortize the then
outstanding principal and interest over the term of this Unsecured Promissory
Note (this "Note") commencing on the first day of July, 1998, and on the first
day of each and every succeeding month thereafter up to and including the
Maturity Date. On the Maturity Date, a final payment covering the entire
outstanding principal balance and all interest accrued thereon shall be due and
payable.
Each of the aforesaid payments shall be applied first, to the payment of
the interest then accrued and due on the unpaid principal balance, and the
remainder of each payment, if any, shall be applied to the reduction of the
unpaid principal, except that if any advance made by the Lender or other holder
hereof under the terms of that certain Second Amendment to Lease dated as of
June 23, 1998, executed by the Lender and the Maker in connection herewith, or
any other instrument executed or delivered in connection with this Note or the
loan evidenced hereby (collectively, the "Loan Documents") has not been repaid,
any monies received, at the option of Lender or other holder hereof, may first
be applied to repay such advances and interest thereon and the balance, if any,
applied in the manner aforesaid on account of any payments then due. Interest
shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year. The above mentioned final
payment shall be subject to such adjustment as may be necessary to fully satisfy
the balance of the principal and interest due hereunder.
This Note is given for a loan of up to Two Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars
($240,000.00) to be made in connection with that certain Standard
Industrial/Commercial Multi-Tenant Lease - Modified Net dated March 23, 1995,
between Lender, as lessor, and Maker, as lessee, as amended by (i) that certain
First Amendment to Lease dated as of May 1, 1998, and (ii) that certain Second
Amendment to Lease dated as of June 23, 1998 (as so amended, the "Lease"),
relating to the premises occupied by Maker located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇,
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The proceeds of said loan are to be used and applied by
Maker exclusively in connection with tenant improvements to be constructed on
the premises occupied by Maker pursuant to the Lease.
A "Breach" for the purposes of this Note is defined as a failure by Maker
to observe, comply with or perform any of the terms, conditions or obligations
of this Note after the lapse of any applicable cure period.
Subsequent to Maker's complete execution and delivery of this Note, and so
long as Maker is not in Breach in the due, prompt and complete performance or
observance of any of the conditions, covenants or obligations applicable to
Maker contained in the Lease or this Note, Lender shall make disbursements of
principal hereunder in accordance with Paragraph 3.2 of the above described
Second Amendment to Lease, the provisions of which are hereby incorporated
herein by this reference as though set forth in full.
This Note is hereby cross-defaulted with the Lease, such that (i) any
Breach under this Note or in the performance and observance of any provisions of
any other agreement pertaining hereto shall be deemed, at the option of Lender,
a default under the Lease; and (ii) any Breach under the Lease after the lapse
of any applicable cure period shall be deemed, at the option of Lender, a Breach
hereunder.
The Maker shall have the right to prepay this Note at any time.
All sums due under this Note are payable at the place or places as above
stated in legal tender of the United States of America current on the dates such
sums or payments are respectively due. Any remittances by check or draft shall
be credited on the date of receipt subject to the condition that such check or
draft may be handled for collection in accordance with the practice of the
collecting bank or banks and any receipt issued therefor shall be void unless
the amount due is actually received by the Lender or other holder hereof.
If any payment herein provided for, or any part thereof, shall become five
(5) days or more overdue, each and every such late payment, or part thereof,
shall bear simple interest at the rate of fourteen percent (14%) per annum (the
"Default Rate") from its due date until date of payment.
EXHIBIT "A"
Page 1 of 2
In the event that any installment of interest or principal payable
hereunder is not paid within five (5) days after the date that it is due, then a
late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount past due shall be due and
payable in addition to such past due amount. Maker and Lender agree that the
late charge payable under this paragraph represents a good faith and fair and
reasonable estimate of the probable extraordinary cost to Lender of Maker's
delinquency in payment of any sum due and payable hereunder. The right to
collect such late charge shall be in addition to all other rights granted to
Lender hereunder.
If Breach be made in the payment of the whole or any part of any of the
several payments of this Note when due, or in the performance of any of the
terms, agreements, covenants or conditions contained in the Lease after the
lapse of any applicable cure period (exclusive of non-material, non-monetary
Breaches under the Lease), then, or at any time thereafter during the
continuance of any such Breach, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note
together with any interest accrued thereon shall, at the election of the holder
hereof, and without notice of such election and without demand or presentment,
become immediately due and payable at the place of payment aforesaid, and the
principal balance together with any interest accrued thereon, so accelerated and
declared due as aforesaid, shall thereafter bear simple interest at the Default
Rate until paid.
If any Breach be made as hereinabove set forth, the failure of the Lender
or other holder hereof promptly to exercise its right to declare the
indebtedness remaining unpaid hereunder to be immediately due and payable or the
acceptance of one or more payments from any person thereafter, shall not
constitute a waiver of such right while any default continues nor a waiver of
such right in connection with any future default.
The Maker and any endorsers hereof and all others who may become liable for
all or any part of this obligation, severally waive presentment for payment,
demand and protest and notice of protest, and of dishonor and non-payment of
this Note.
In the event that suit be brought hereon, or an attorney employed or
expenses be incurred to compel payment of this Note or any portion of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby, the undersigned promises to pay all such
reasonable expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees.
This Note may not be changed orally but only by an agreement in writing,
signed by the party against whom enforcement or any waiver, change, modification
or discharge is sought. Written notices required to be given hereunder shall be
given as provided in the Lease.
