                            THIRD AMENDMENT TO LEASE

         Third Amendment dated as of this 7th day of August, 2003, by and
between MJB PROPERTIES, an Arizona general partnership ("Lessor"), and INSURANCE
AUTO AUCTIONS CORP., a Delaware corporation ("Lessee").

                                    RECITALS:

         A. WHEREAS, Lessor and Lessee previously entered into a certain
Standard Industrial/Commercial Single-Tenant Lease dated November 1, 1994, an
Amendment of Lease Agreement dated June 1, 1995, and an Extension to Lease
dated March 5, 1999 (collectively "Lease"), concerning the premises commonly
known as 4226 East Main Street, Grand Prairie, Texas ("Premises").

         B. WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend said Lease as described below.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

         1. RECITALS. The recitals set forth above are incorporated herein and
made a part hereof.


         2. CONFLICT. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this
Amendment and the terms of the Lease, the terms of this Amendment shall control.

         3. DEFINED TERMS. All defined terms contained in this Amendment shall
have the meanings and definitions as set forth in the Lease.

         4. PROJECT. The architectural firm of CivCon Services, Inc., has
designed certain improvements for the Premises as set forth in its revised
architectural plans together with certain landscape plans and civil engineering
drawings and plans (the improvements and work depicted in said plans and
drawings and other related plans and drawings, as revised from time to time, are
hereinafter referred to as the "Project"). Lessee shall submit to Lessor any
revisions and modifications to the Project's architectural drawings and plans,
for Lessor's reasonable approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Lessee shall be solely responsible for causing
the Project to be constructed and Lessor shall have no responsibility for same,
except for the payment responsibilities described below.

         5. PAYMENT FOR PROJECT. Lessor agrees to pay up to $ 1,000,000 to pay
for the cost of the Project (excluding the cost of asphalt, which cost Lessee
shall pay). Lessor's payments for the cost of the Project shall be paid by
Lessor into a construction escrow, no more frequently than once a month, during
the course of construction as and when payments are due to the architects,
engineers, consultants, contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and others
working on the Project. In the event that the cost of the Project exceeds
$1,000,000, then Lessee shall be responsible for)






the payment of any and all such excess costs. The total amount paid by Lessor
during each calendar quarter during the course of the Project is hereinafter
referred to as the "Total Quarterly Project Payments."

         6. AMORTIZED PAYMENTS. As of the end of each calendar quarter during
the Project, the rent shall be increased as follows. The Total Quarterly Project
Payments for each calendar quarter, together with interest at the rate of 10%
per annum, amortized over the period of time from the end of the subject
calendar quarter through December 31, 2013, results in a certain monthly
amortized payment of principal and interest, hereinafter called the "Amortized
Payment." The current monthly base rent of $39,000 shall be increased by the
amount of each Amortized Payment effective on the first day of the month
following each calendar quarter. The foregoing calculation shall be made as of
the end of each calendar quarter, and the Amortized Payment resulting from such
calculation shall be added to the monthly base rent and shall be payable as
additional rent for the entire amortization period through December 31, 2013.
Accordingly, all Amortized Payments for the Project shall be paid in full as of
December 31, 2013. Lessee may prepay and pay off the remaining principal balance
for any or all Amortized Payments, at any time, without any prepayment penalty.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, there shall be
no rental escalations (as described in paragraph 8 below) in the portion of the
rent that constitutes the Amortized Payments.

         7. TERM AND RENEWAL OPTIONS. The Term of the Lease currently ends on
October 31, 2004. The Term of the Lease is hereby extended so that it runs for
an additional period often (10) years through and including October 31, 2014.
Furthermore, Lessee shall have the option to renew the Lease for three (3)
successive periods of five (5) years upon the same terms and conditions of the
Lease with the exception of the base rent, which shall be subject to the
increases described below.

         8. BASE RENT INCREASES. The amount of the current monthly base rent of
$39,000 shall remain fixed through October 31, 2004. Effective as of the
following "Adjustment Dates," November 1, 2004, and November 1 of each year
thereafter during the Term and during any renewal Term, the base rent shall be
increased as follows. The base rent for the next twelve (12) months of the Term
or renewal Term, as the case may be, shall be determined by multiplying the base
rent for the lease year ending on October 31 immediately prior to the Adjustment
Date, by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Consumer Price Index,
All Urban Consumers, South Region, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor,
Bureau of Labor Statistics ("CPI Index"), for the month of August immediately
prior to the Adjustment Date, and the denominator of which will be the CPI Index
for the month of August which is one (1) year prior to the Adjustment Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the base rent on each Adjustment Date shall
increase at a rate no greater than a maximum of five percent (5%) per year.

         9. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. If Lessor enters into a written contract to
sell the leased premises, or any part thereof, or to sell any partnership
interest in Lessor, then Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing, enclosing a copy
of the fully executed contract ("Third-Party Contract"), and Lessee shall have a
right of first refusal to match the Third-Party Contract and enter into a
written contract with Lessor containing all of the same terms and conditions of
the Third-Party Contract. If Lessee fails to deliver its written offer
containing all of the same terms and conditions as the Third-Party Contract
within thirty (30) days after Lessee's receipt of Lessor's written notification
of the Third-Party Contract, then this right of first refusal shall expire and
Lessor may proceed to


                                     - 2 -






sell the leased premises or partnership interest, subject to this Lease,
pursuant to said Third-Party Contract. If Lessor does not consummate the
foregoing sale pursuant to said Third-Party Contract, then the right of first
refusal described above shall again apply to any subsequent contracts entered
into by Lessor concerning same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is
acknowledged and agreed that transfers of partnership interest in Lessor between
existing partners, or to family members of existing partners, or to trusts,
estates or other entities under which such family members or existing partners
are the sole beneficiaries or owners thereof, shall not trigger the foregoing
right of first refusal, provided, however, that the right of first refusal shall
continue and remain in full force and effect as to any other sales or transfers
of the leased premises or partnership interest.

         10. IMPROVEMENTS REMAIN. Upon the termination of this Lease, Lessee
shall not be obligated to remove any of the improvements which comprise the
Project, but Lessee may elect, in Lessee's sole discretion, to remove any of
Lessee's trade fixtures and personal property.

         11. TITLE INSURANCE. IAA, at its own cost, may purchase leasehold title
insurance, and Lessor shall cooperate with same, including, but not limited
to, the execution of a Memorandum of Lease for recording.

         12. USE RESTRICTION. The use restriction set forth in paragraph 49.1 in
the Addendum to Lease dated November 1, 1994, is hereby deleted and the
following is substituted in place thereof:

             Lessee acknowledges that the following deed restriction affects the
             use of the Premises, but that said restriction terminates on August
             9,2009, being 15 years after the date of such deed:

                  "Grantor, as a condition and covenant in this conveyance and
                  by express reservation and exception in this deed, hereby
                  restricts the Property (subject to the provisions hereafter
                  set forth) against any use of the Property for the conduct of
                  any enterprise, business or activity involving, directly or
                  indirectly, the sale of any automobile, truck, off-road
                  vehicle, bus, motorcycle, motorbike or any other vehicle
                  (collectively the "Vehicles") save and except those classified
                  on the certificate of title as scrap, junk, salvage, theft
                  recovery or other comparable classification. Notwithstanding
                  the foregoing, the Grantee may sell up to, but not in excess
                  of one hundred (100) Vehicles the certificate of title to
                  which are not branded as any of the aforesaid classification
                  during any calendar week. The restriction in this deed shall
                  be deemed a covenant running with the land and shall continue
                  for a period of fifteen (15) years from the date hereof at
                  which time restrictions may be enforced by the Grantor and its
                  successors and assigns at their election by injunction, suit
                  for damages or any other remedy at law or in equity and in the
                  event of such enforcement by the Grantor, its successors or
                  assigns, the same shall be entitled to recover reasonable
                  attorney's fees, all court costs and expenses."


                                      - 3 -






         13. LEASE CONTINUES. Except as modified by this Third Amendment, all
terms and conditions set forth in the Lease shall remain and continue in full
force and effect.

the Project as desired by Lessee.



         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Third Amendment was executed as of the date
first above written.
