promptly following the date Landlord obtains possession of the Expansion
Premises from PAI, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Expansion Premises
to Tenant in the condition required under Section 1 above.   For the purposes of
this Fourth Amendment, the term “Expansion Premises Commencement Date" or “EPCD”
shall mean the date Landlord delivers possession of the Expansion Premises to
Tenant in writing.

All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings ascribed to them in the Lease.
