or violate any zoning or other law, ordinance or regulation, (ii) violate any
use restriction or other contractual restriction applicable with respect to such
Project, (iii) make void or voidable any insurance then in effect with respect
to any of the Projects, (iv) materially and adversely affect in any manner the
ability of Tenant to obtain fire and other insurance which Tenant is required to
furnish under this Lease, (v) cause any material injury or damage to the
Improvements which is not repaired in accordance with the provisions of this
Lease, or (vi) constitute a public or private nuisance or waste, provided that
all of the foregoing shall be qualified to the extent otherwise provided
elsewhere in this Lease.

         (b) Tenant shall operate each Project on a continuous basis;
provided, however, that Tenant may cease operations at any Project for a period
not to exceed eighteen (18) months in the aggregate for each Project; and
provided, further, however, that not more than two (2) Projects shall be dark
(that is, not being operated in the ordinary course of business) at the same
time (it being understood that a Project under renovation for three months or
less or, in connection with a Condemnation or Casualty, under repair in
accordance with the terms hereof (including without limitation the immediately
succeeding provision), shall not be deemed to be dark); and provided, further,
however, that the Project located at 2150 Paul Jones Way, Lexington, Kentucky,
shall not be permitted to go dark prior to December 10, 2003 and the Project
located at 11101 Pecan Park Boulevard, Austin, Texas, shall not be permitted to
go dark for more than 150 consecutive days (plus an additional 100 days if in
connection with repair, renovation or remodeling after a Casualty (as
hereinafter defined)) during the term of this Lease. If Tenant shall violate the
prohibition with respect to the Project located at 11101 Pecan Park Boulevard,
Austin, Texas set forth above, Tenant shall thereupon immediately and without
further action by Landlord be deemed to have made a Rejectable Offer (as
hereinafter defined) to purchase Landlord's interest in such Project on a Lease
Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) twenty-five (25) days following the
date of such violation for a price equal to (i) the


                                       3

<PAGE>

"Stipulated Loss Value" as specified in Schedule F attached hereto and made a
part hereof, plus (ii) any Make-Whole Premium required by the Indenture, plus
(iii) any release premium required by the Indenture to release the Project from
the lien of the Indenture, plus (iv) all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other
sums accrued or due and payable under this Lease with respect to such Project as
of the applicable Lease Termination Date. Such Rejectable Offer shall be deemed
to be accepted unless Landlord shall have rejected such offer within 10 days of
the Lease Termination Date. In connection with any failure to consummate such
deemed Rejectable Offer, Landlord shall, in addition to any other remedy
provided under this Lease or at law or in equity, be entitled to the remedy of
specific performance, and Tenant hereby agrees to the exercise of such remedy.

         1.3 Terms.

         (a) The Premises are leased for a primary term of twenty (20)
years (the "Primary Term"), and, at Tenant's option, for up to two (2)
consecutive additional five (5) year terms (the "Extended Terms"), unless and
until the term of this Lease shall earlier expire or be terminated pursuant to
any provision hereof. The Primary Term, each Extended Term and each Wintergreen
Extended Term (as hereinafter defined) or FMV Extended Term (as hereinafter
defined) (collectively, the "Term") shall commence and expire (except as
otherwise required by Section 1.3(b)) on the dates set forth in Schedule C
attached hereto and made a part hereof. Subject to Section 5.2(g) below, and
provided that on the date Tenant elects to exercise its option to extend the
Term of this Lease for an Extended Term and on the first day of such Extended
Term, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Tenant may elect to exercise its option to extend the Term of this Lease for an
Extended Term by giving written notice thereof to Landlord not later than (i)
twenty-four (24) months prior to expiration of the Primary Term with respect to
the first Extended Term, and (ii) twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of
the existing Term, with respect to each Extended Term. Each notice of election
to extend the Term of this Lease given in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 1.3 shall automatically extend the Term of this Lease for the Extended
Term, Wintergreen Extended Term or FMV Extended Term, as the case may be,
selected, without further writing; provided, however, either party, upon request
of the other, shall execute and acknowledge, in form suitable for recording, an
instrument confirming any such extension. Each Extended Term, Wintergreen
Extended Term or FMV Extended Term, as the case may be, shall be upon the same
terms as provided in this Lease for the Primary Term, except as otherwise stated
herein. Tenant shall not be entitled to extend the Term of this Lease for any
Extended Term, Wintergreen Extended Term or FMV Extended Term, as the case may
be, unless Tenant shall have extended the Term of this Lease for the preceding
Extended Term, Wintergreen Extended Term or FMV Extended Term, as the case may
be, if any. Tenant may not exercise an option to extend with respect to
individual Projects (and any attempt to do so shall be null and void and of no
force and effect), but may exercise each such option only with respect to all
Projects covered by this Lease at the time of such exercise.

         (b) Not less than twenty-four (24) months prior to the
expiration of the second Extended Term, subject to Section 5.2(g) and provided
that on the date Tenant elects to exercise its option to extend the Term of this
Lease for a Wintergreen Extended Term and on the first day


                                       4

<PAGE>

of such Wintergreen Extended Term no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord notice of the Tenant's intent to
renew this Lease at the end of such Extended Term for the initial Wintergreen
Extended Term (as hereinafter defined), which shall be the first extended term
provision of a period up to three (3) consecutive five (5) year terms
(collectively, the "Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term") which in no event shall
exceed (i) and (ii) below and shall be divided into five year increments (each,
a "Wintergreen Extended Term"), or with respect to such final Wintergreen
Extended Term, such fewer full year increments as will permit such final
Wintergreen Extended Term to comply with this Section 1.3(b)), and which shall
satisfy the following criteria: (i) the aggregate of the proposed Wintergreen
Renewal Lease Term, the Extended Terms and the Primary Term is expected to be
not more than 80% of the estimated remaining useful life of any of the Projects,
measured from the Closing Date and determined not more than 24 months prior to
the end of the second Extended Term and (ii) on the last date of such proposed
Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term, the estimated Fair Market Value of each of the
Projects is expected to be not less than 20% of the Purchase Price of such
Project (without taking into account inflation or deflation subsequent to the
Closing Date). If items (i) and (ii) in the immediately preceding sentence
cannot be satisfied, the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term may be reduced to such
number of Wintergreen Extended Terms as shall satisfy items (i) and (ii). Items
(i) and (ii) above shall be determined by an Approved Appraiser selected by
Tenant and reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Tenant may withdraw any notice
given in accordance with this Section 1.3(b) by written notice of such
withdrawal to Landlord, on or prior to the date which is (12) months before the
commencement of the proposed Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term, in which case the
right to renew this Lease for all or any portion of the Wintergreen Renewal
Lease Term shall terminate. Each Wintergreen Extended Term shall commence on the
date immediately succeeding the expiration of the immediately preceding Extended
Term or Wintergreen Extended Term, as the case may be. Tenant may not exercise
the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term with respect to individual Projects (and any
attempt to do so shall be null and void and of no force and effect), but may
exercise the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term only with respect to all Projects
covered by this Lease at the time of such exercise.

         (c) In the event that items (i) and (ii) set forth in Section
1.3(b) above cannot be satisfied with respect to the Wintergreen Renewal Lease
Term, or in lieu of the Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term, not less than twelve
(12) months prior to the expiration of the Extended Term, subject to Section
5.2(g) and provided that on the date Tenant elects to exercise its option to
extend the Term of this Lease for a FMV Extended Term (as hereinafter defined)
and on the first day of such FMV Extended Term no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, Tenant shall have the option to deliver
to Landlord notice of Tenant's intent to renew this Lease for up to three (3)
consecutive additional five (5) year terms (the "FMV Extended Terms") unless and
until the Term of this Lease shall expire or be terminated pursuant to any
provision hereof; provided, however, that no FMV Extended Term shall extend
beyond the date that would exceed ninety percent (90%) of the economic useful
life of any Project (as set forth in the most recent of (a) the Closing
Appraisal, and (b) the appraisal obtained in connection with the proposed
Wintergreen Renewal Lease Term). Each FMV Extended Term will commence on the
date immediately succeeding the expiration of the last Extended Term or
immediately preceding FMV Extended Term, as the case may be. The rent payable on
each date as set forth


                                       5

<PAGE>

in Schedule D shall be equal to the fair market rental value, as agreed by
Tenant and Landlord, at the end of the last Extended Term or the applicable FMV
Extended Term (determined not more than twenty four (24) months prior to the
beginning of any FMV Extended Term). Tenant may not exercise an option to extend
with respect to individual Projects (and any attempt to do so shall be null and
void and of no force and effect), but may exercise each such option only with
respect to all Projects covered by this Lease at the time of such exercise.

         1.4 Rent.

         (a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord by federal funds wire transfer in
immediately available funds (in U.S. Dollars) as basic rent for the Premises the
amounts set forth in Schedule D attached hereto and made a part hereof (the
"Basic Rent") on the dates set forth therein (or if any such date falls on a day
which is not a Business Day (as hereinafter defined), the next succeeding
Business Day, the "Payment Dates"), to such account or to such other account or
to such address or to such other person as Landlord from time to time may
designate. In addition, during all Extended Terms and Wintergreen Extended
Terms, the Basic Rent shall be as set forth in Schedule D. Tenant's liability
for use of the Projects shall be equal to the Basic Rent allocable to each
month. A "Business Day" is defined as any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or
other day on which the banks in New York, New York are authorized or required to
be closed. If, with respect to any month (with such month starting on the 15th
day of the month prior to such month and ending on the 14th day of such month),
the Basic Rent due and allocable with respect to such month is for a period of
days less than the full number of days in such month, the Basic Rent due for
such month shall be pro rated to an amount equal to the Basic Rent specified for
such month multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days
the Lease is in effect for such month and the denominator of which is the number
of days in such month.

         (b) All taxes, costs, expenses and amounts which Tenant is required to
pay pursuant to this Lease (other than Basic Rent), together with every fine,
penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non-payment or late payment
thereof, shall constitute additional rent ("Additional Rent"). Additional Rent
shall also include all sums and other charges payable by Tenant to Landlord
pursuant to any other agreement between Landlord and Tenant, which specifies
that such sums or charges constitute Additional Rent. All Additional Rent shall
be paid directly by Tenant to the party to whom such Additional Rent is due.
Tenant shall pay and discharge all Additional Rent before the imposition of any
fine, lien, interest or penalty with respect thereto, but if such a fine, lien,
penalty or interest is imposed, Tenant shall also pay such amount as Additional
Rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any such Additional Rent or any other sum due
under this Lease prior to the time when the same shall become delinquent,
Landlord shall have all rights, powers and remedies with respect thereto as are
provided herein or by law in the case of non-payment of any Basic Rent and
shall, except as expressly provided herein, have the right to pay the same on
behalf of Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord any penalty or late charge (to
the extent arising out of an Event of Default under this Lease) payable to
Lender (or that would have been payable to Lender but for an advance of funds by
the Landlord) under the Loan, plus interest, at a rate (the "Rate") equal to the
lesser of (i) the default rate of interest per annum under the Indenture
(provided that if there is more than one Indenture, then reference shall be made
to the Indenture which constitutes a first mortgage lien on Landlord's interest
in


                                       6

<PAGE>

the Premises and provided further, that at any time that no such first mortgage
shall exist, the Rate under this clause (i) shall be the Prime Rate (as
hereinafter defined)) plus five percent (5%), and (ii) the maximum rate
permitted by law, on all overdue Basic Rent, all overdue Additional Rent and all
other sums due under this Lease, in each case, from the due date thereof until
paid. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default
under the Loan Agreement to the extent arising out of an Event of Default under
this Lease, Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, any additional interest
payable by Landlord to Lender as a consequence thereof. In addition, if Tenant
fails to make any payment of Basic Rent, Additional Rent or other sums payable
under this Lease to Landlord within two (2) Business Days (with respect to Basic
Rent) or five (5) Business Days with respect to Additional Rent or other sums
after delivery of written notice to Tenant that any such Basic Rent, Additional
Rent, or other sum payable under this Lease has not been paid on the due date
thereof, Tenant shall pay a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount
past due. Landlord and Tenant agree that any such late charge shall be deemed to
be liquidated damages for breach of Tenant's obligation to pay Rent when due,
that the amount of actual damages suffered by Landlord as a result of such
breach cannot be ascertained as of the date hereof, that such amount is a
reasonable sum considering the circumstances on the date hereof and that such
amount is not a penalty. Tenant shall perform all its obligations under this
Lease at its sole cost and expense, and shall pay all Basic Rent, Additional
Rent and any other sum due under this Lease when due and payable, without
offset, notice or demand.

                                   ARTICLE 2.

         2.1 Net Lease.

         (a) This Lease is a net lease and, any present or future law to the
contrary notwithstanding, shall not terminate except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any abatement, reduction
(except as otherwise expressly provided herein in connection with termination
with respect to a Project), diminution (except as otherwise expressly provided
herein in connection with termination with respect to a Project), set-off,
counterclaim, defense (except for the defense that the performance or payment
has been made) or deduction with respect to any Basic Rent, Additional Rent or
other sums payable under this Lease, nor shall Tenant be excused from the
performance of its obligations under this Lease, by reason of (except as
otherwise expressly provided herein in connection with termination with respect
to a Project in accordance with Article 3 hereof): any damage to or destruction
of any or all of the Projects or any portion thereof; any defect in the
condition, design, operation or fitness for use of any or all of the Projects or
any portion thereof; any taking of any or all of the Projects or any part
thereof by condemnation or otherwise; any prohibition, limitation, interruption,
cessation, restriction or prevention of Tenant's use, occupancy or enjoyment of
any or all of the Projects, or any interference with such use, occupancy or
enjoyment by any person; any eviction by paramount title or otherwise; any
default by Landlord under this Lease or under any other agreement; the
impossibility or illegality of performance by Landlord, Tenant or both; any
action of any governmental authority (including, without limitation, changes in
Legal Requirements); construction on or renovation of any or all of the
Projects; or any failure in any or all of the Projects to comply with applicable
laws, Legal Requirements, or any other cause


                                       7

<PAGE>

whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing. All costs, expenses and
obligations of every kind and nature whatsoever relating to the Premises and the
appurtenances thereto and the use and occupancy thereof by Tenant and/or its
successors, assigns, or sublessees which may arise or become due and payable
with respect to the period which ends on the expiration or earlier termination
of the Term in accordance with the provisions hereof (whether or not the same
shall become payable during the Term or thereafter) shall be paid by Tenant,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein. It is the purpose and intention
of the parties to this Lease that the Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums
payable to Landlord under this Lease shall be absolutely net to Landlord and
that this Lease shall yield, net to Landlord, the Basic Rent, Additional Rent
(except in such instances in which Additional Rent is required to be paid
directly by Tenant to a third party to whom such Additional Rent is due), and
other sums payable to Landlord as provided in this Lease. The parties intend
that the obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall be separate and
independent covenants and agreements and shall continue unaffected unless such
obligations shall have been modified or terminated pursuant to an express
provision of this Lease.

         (b) Tenant shall remain obligated under this Lease in accordance with
its terms and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall not take any
action to terminate, rescind or avoid this Lease, notwithstanding any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or other
proceeding affecting Landlord or any action with respect to this Lease which may
be taken by any trustee, receiver or liquidator or by any court.

         (c) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein in connection with
the termination of a Project, Tenant waives all rights to terminate or surrender
this Lease, or to any abatement or deferment of Basic Rent, Additional Rent or
other sums payable under this Lease.

         2.2 Taxes and Assessments; Compliance with Law.

         (a) Subject to Tenant's right to contest pursuant to Section 2.6 of
this Lease, Tenant shall pay on an after tax basis, prior to delinquency, all
"Impositions", which are defined as: (i) all taxes (including, without
limitation, those described in (iii) below), assessments (including, without
limitation, all assessments for public improvements or benefits, whether or not
commenced or completed prior to the date hereof and whether or not commenced or
completed within the Term of this Lease), excises, levies, fees (including,
without limitation, license, permit, inspection, authorization and similar
fees), water and sewer rents and charges, ground lease rents, and all other
governmental and quasi-governmental charges, general and special, ordinary and
extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, and any interest and penalties thereon
which are, at any time prior to or during the Primary Term or any Extended Term,
Wintergreen Extended Term or FMV Extended Term hereof, imposed or levied upon or
assessed against or which arise with respect to (A) the Premises, (B) any Basic
Rent, Additional Rent or other sums payable under this Lease, (C) this Lease or
the leasehold estate hereby created, or (D) the operation, possession or use of
the Premises or (E) the transactions contemplated by this Lease and other
related documents; (ii) all gross receipts taxes or similar taxes (i.e., taxes
based upon gross income which fail to take into account deductions with respect
to depreciation, interest, taxes or ordinary and necessary business expenses, in
each case relating to the Premises)


                                       8

<PAGE>

imposed or levied upon, assessed against or measured by any Basic Rent,
Additional Rent or other sums payable under this Lease; (iii) all sales
(including those imposed on lease rentals), value added, ad valorem, gross
receipts, use and similar taxes at any time levied, assessed or payable on
account of the acquisition, ownership, leasing, operation, possession or use of
the Premises; (iv) all transfer, recording, stamp and real property gain taxes
incurred upon the sale or transfer, or other disposition of the Premises or any
interest therein to the Landlord (specifically excluding any real property gain
taxes payable by Landlord upon the sale of the Premises or any Project to a
third party other than in connection with the exercise of remedies in connection
with an Event of Default) or to Tenant, (v) all offers, claims and demands of
mechanics, laborers, materialmen and others which, if unpaid, might create a
lien on the Premises, (vi) all charges of utilities, communications and similar
services serving the Premises, and (vii) any other tax relating to the Premises
resulting from any law enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this
Lease imposed on Landlord pursuant to the Indenture (as hereinafter defined).
Notwithstanding clause (i) above, Tenant shall not be required to pay any
franchise, estate, inheritance, transfer, net income or similar tax of Landlord
unless such tax is imposed, levied or assessed in substitution for any other
tax, assessment, charge or levy which Tenant is required to pay pursuant to this
Section 2.2(a), provided that if during the Term, there shall be assessed,
levied, charged or imposed on Landlord a capital levy or other tax directly on
the rents received therefrom or upon the value of the Premises or any then
existing or proposed improvements on the Premises, then all such levies and
taxes shall be payable by Tenant before delinquency. Subject to Tenant's right
to contest pursuant to Section 2.6 of this Lease, Tenant shall furnish to
Landlord, within thirty (30) days after the due date thereof, proof of payment
of all Impositions. If any such Imposition may legally be paid in installments
without the accrual of interest thereon, Tenant may pay such Imposition in
installments; in such event, Tenant shall be liable only for Taxes attributed to
the Primary Term and any Extended Term, Wintergreen Extended Term or FMV
Extended Term hereof.

         (b) Tenant shall comply with and cause each of the Projects to comply
with and shall assume all obligations and liabilities with respect to (i) all
laws, ordinances and regulations, and other governmental and quasi-governmental
rules, orders and determinations presently in effect or hereafter enacted, made
or issued, both foreseen and unforeseen and ordinary and extraordinary
applicable to the applicable Project or the ownership, operation, use or
possession thereof and (ii) all contracts (including, but not limited to,
insurance policies (including, without limitation, to the extent necessary to
prevent cancellation thereof and to insure full payment of any claims made under
such policies)), agreements, covenants (including the covenant set forth on
Schedule K), conditions and restrictions now or hereafter applicable to each
Project or the ownership, operation, use or possession thereof (collectively,
"Legal Requirements"), including but not limited to all such Legal Requirements
which require structural, unforeseen or extraordinary changes; provided that any
such requirement to make structural, unforeseen or extraordinary changes shall
be subject to the terms and provisions of Article 3 hereof to the extent such
Article 3 applies). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Legal Requirements shall not
include any contracts, agreements, covenants, conditions or restrictions
applicable to a Project which are hereafter voluntarily entered into by Landlord
without the consent or approval of Tenant (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless Landlord is


                                       9

<PAGE>

required to enter into such contract, agreement, covenant, condition or
restriction by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity.

         (c) If required by Landlord by notice in writing to Tenant, Tenant
agrees that it shall deposit with Landlord, or, if directed by Landlord, to
Lender (or its designee) (in the event such deposits are required, Landlord
hereby irrevocably directs Tenant to make such deposits with Lender as long as
the Indenture shall remain outstanding, and Tenant hereby grants a security
interest in such account, if such is established, to Landlord and consents to
the pledge of and the granting of a security interest in such account, if such
is established, by Landlord to Lender) on each Payment Date, as Additional Rent,
one twelfth (1/12) of all Impositions for the Premises during the next twelve
(12) months in order to accumulate sufficient funds to pay all such Impositions
at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective dates as reasonably
estimated by Landlord according to the most recent tax bills or assessment and
tax rate notices. To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither Landlord
nor Lender or its designee (each of Landlord and Lender or such designee
hereinafter referred to as "Depository"), as the case may be, shall be required
to maintain such amounts in an account separate from other funds of such party
or to deposit any such amounts in an interest-bearing account. If required by
Landlord by notice in writing to Tenant, Tenant shall deposit with Depository,
prior to the date which is thirty (30) days prior to the delinquency date of any
Imposition, such additional amount as may be necessary to provide Depository
with sufficient funds in such deposit account to pay each such charge at least
thirty (30) days in advance of the delinquency date thereof. Depository shall
apply the aforesaid deposits and interest, if any, thereon for such purpose not
later than the last day on which any such charges may be paid without penalty or
interest or disburse or cause Depository to disburse them to Tenant upon
presentation of evidence of payment and a certificate of an officer of Tenant in
form and substance satisfactory to Landlord. If, at any time, the amount of any
Imposition is increased or Landlord or Lender receives information that such
Imposition will be increased, or if Landlord shall determine in its reasonable
judgment that the amounts of such deposit will be insufficient for the payments
due, and if the monthly deposits then being made by Tenant for this purpose (if
continued) would not make up a fund sufficient to pay such Imposition thirty
(30) days prior to the due date, said monthly deposits thereupon shall be
increased and Tenant immediately shall deposit with the Depository, on demand,
sufficient moneys so that the moneys then on hand for the payment of said
Imposition, plus the increased payments and such additional sums demanded, shall
be sufficient so that the Depository shall have received from Tenant adequate
amounts to pay such Imposition at least thirty (30) days before such Imposition
becomes due and payable. In the event the amount of the funds deposited by
Tenant exceeds the amount of the estimated Impositions, then the Landlord shall
decrease the amount required for subsequent deposits under this Section 2.2(c).
For purposes of determining whether the Depository has on hand sufficient moneys
to pay any particular Imposition at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date
therefor, deposits for each category of Imposition shall be treated separately,
it being the intention that the Depository shall not be obligated to use moneys
deposited for the payment of an item not yet due and payable to the payment of
an item that is due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood
and agreed that (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law, deposits provided
for hereunder may be held by the Depository in a single bank account and
commingled with other funds of the Depository, and (ii) the Depository may, if
Tenant fails to make any deposit required hereunder,


                                       10

<PAGE>

apply deposits made for any one Imposition for the payment of the same, any
other Imposition or any outstanding Basic Rent or Additional Rent. If an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Lease, all deposits
then held by the Depository shall be applied on account of any and all sums due
under this Lease and Tenant shall forthwith pay the resulting deficiency in
accordance with the terms hereof. If Landlord ceases to have any interest in any
Project, Landlord shall direct the Depository to transfer to the person or
entity who owns or acquires such interest in such Project and is the transferee
of the Landlord's interest in this Lease, the deposits made pursuant to the
provisions hereof. In addition, in the event that Lender (or a servicing agent
on Lender's behalf) is the Depository, Lender shall have the right to transfer
the deposits (or to cause its servicing agent to transfer such deposits) to any
transferee of the Indenture or to the holder of any substitute Indenture. Upon
any such transfer of the deposits, after acknowledgement of such transfer by the
transferee and notice thereof to Tenant, the transferor shall be deemed to be
released from all liability with respect thereto and Tenant agrees to look to
the transferee solely with respect thereto, and the provisions hereof shall
apply to each successive transfer of the said deposits. Tenant shall be deemed
the owner of any such deposit and shall pay all taxes associated therewith.

         (d) Tenant shall not be required to make the deposits required by
Section 2.2(c) so long as (i) subject to Section 2.6, Tenant shall pay all
Impositions as the same become due and payable before delinquency, (ii) Tenant
shall, upon request, furnish to Landlord receipts for payment of all Impositions
or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, (iii) no
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iv) Tenant has a Net
Worth in excess of $100,000,000 and (v) Tenant is maintaining a Rent Coverage
Ratio (as hereinafter defined) with respect to all Projects of at least 1.25:1.
Tenant's obligation to make the deposits required by Section 2.2(c) shall
immediately resume and shall continue (x) in the event of the failure of any
condition set forth in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, until the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease, (y) in the event of the failure of the
condition set forth in clause (iv) above, until such time as Tenant's Net Worth
shall be equal to or greater than $150,000,000 and (z) in the event of the
failure of the condition set forth in clause (v) above, until such time as
Tenant's Rent Coverage Ratio with respect to all Projects is equal to or greater
than 1.5:1. For purposes of this Lease, "Rent Coverage Ratio" shall mean, as of
any date, with respect to any Project, the ratio of (i) Tenant's EBITDAR with
respect to such Project for the Rent Coverage Determination Period, as certified
to by the chief financial officer, treasurer or chief accounting officer of
Tenant, to (ii) the Basic Rent payable under this Lease with respect to such
Project for such Rent Coverage Determination Period, subject to the audit rights
of Landlord and Lender if the allocation or operating expenses with respect to
such Project is materially different than with respect to Tenant as a whole, for
such period. Any time Rent Coverage Ratio is to be calculated with respect to
all Projects, such calculation shall be made on an aggregate basis. The Rent
Coverage Ratio with respect to each Project and as to all Projects as of the
most recent fiscal year end prior to the Closing is set forth in Schedule J,
together with the calculations relating thereto. For purposes of this Lease,
"Rent Coverage Determination Period" shall mean, as of any date, the 12-month
period ending with the most recently completed calendar quarter not less than 30

last calculation shall be equal to or greater than 1.5.1, the 12-month period
ending with the most


                                       11

principles, and (iii) allocations of income or expense among Tenant's stores,
profit centers or regions shall be fairly allocated and consistent with Tenant's
internal accounting methodology as certified by Tenant's chief financial
officer, treasurer or chief accounting officer. For purposes of this Lease, "Net
Worth" shall mean, as of a given date, (x) the total assets of Tenant as of such
date less (y) Tenant's liabilities as of such date determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles; provided, however, that at any time
that Tenant is subject to the reporting requirements of Sections 13 and 15(d) of
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Net Worth shall be as set
forth in Tenant's most recent Form 10-K or Form 10-Q filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

         2.3 Liens. Subject to Tenant's right to contest pursuant to Section 2.6
of this Lease, Tenant will promptly remove and discharge any charge, lien,
security interest or encumbrance upon any Project or any Basic Rent, Additional
Rent or other sums payable under this Lease which arise for any reason,
including all liens which arise out of the possession, use, occupancy,
construction, repair or rebuilding of a Project or by reason of labor or
materials furnished or claimed to have been furnished to Tenant or for any
Project, but not including (i) the Permitted Exceptions, and (ii) the Indenture
and any other mortgage, charge, lien, security interest or encumbrance created
by Landlord without the consent of Tenant or encumbrance created due to
Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct subject to the provisions in

constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, to or for
the performance by any contractor, laborer, materialman, or vendor of any labor
or services or for the furnishing of any materials for any construction,
alteration, addition repair or demolition of or to any Project or any part

services or materials furnished or to be furnished to Tenant, or to anyone
holding an interest in any of the Projects or any part thereof through or under
Tenant, and that no mechanic's or other liens for any such labor, services or
materials shall attach to or affect the interest of Landlord in and to a
Project.

(i) Landlord, (ii) any owner, beneficial owner, trustee, partner, member,
officer, director, shareholder or agent of Landlord, and of any of Landlord's

indemnify and save harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against, any and
all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses (including reasonable

about, or ownership, possession, alteration, repair, operation, maintenance,
leasing, subleasing or management of, any Project or any portion thereof or on
the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, parking areas, streets or ways; (iii) the

substitution or condition of any Project, including without limitation claims or
penalties arising from any violation of Legal Requirements, without regard to
whether compliance therewith is required by the terms of this Lease or liability

or comply with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease or any
other instrument, contract, document or agreement to which Tenant is a party

(viii) any lien, encumbrance or claim arising on or against any Project or any
portion thereof under any Legal Requirement or otherwise which Tenant is

asserted against the Indemnified Parties with respect thereto; (ix) the claims
of any subtenants (of any tier), licensees or other persons claiming through or

Lease or any sublease (of any tier); (x) any act or omission of Tenant or its
agents, contractors, employees, licensees, subtenants or invitees or of any of
the Persons described in clause (ix), and (xi) any contest referred to in
Section 2.6; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to indemnify
an Indemnified Party under this Section 2.4 with respect to any liability
arising with respect to a Project to the extent attributable to acts or events
which occur after (and are not attributable to acts or events


                                       13
<PAGE>
occurring or accruing prior to) the later of (A) the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease with respect to such Project and (B) the surrender of
possession of such Project to the Landlord.

        The indemnities contained in this Section 2.4 shall survive (i) the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease with respect to any or all of
the Projects, and (ii) any conveyance of Landlord's interest in any or all of
the Projects to Tenant pursuant to this Lease.

        2.5      Maintenance and Repair.

        (a)      Tenant acknowledges that it has received the Premises in good
order and repair. Tenant, at its own expense, will: (i) maintain all parts of
the Premises in as good repair and condition as at the commencement of this
Lease, except for ordinary wear and tear; (ii) maintain the Premises in
accordance with all Legal Requirements; (iii) comply with the standards imposed
by any insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder which are in
effect at any time with respect to any Project or any part thereof; and (iv)
take all action and make all structural and non-structural, foreseen and
unforeseen and ordinary and extraordinary changes and repairs and replacements
which may be required to keep all parts of the Premises in good repair and
condition and as shall be necessary to maintain each Project in accordance with
the Brand Standards. For the purposes of this Lease, "Brand Standards" shall
mean the design, construction, operational, and maintenance, service and repair
standards for the typical retail furniture store then franchised or operated by
Tenant or its affiliates or subsidiaries, under the "Havertys Furniture" trade
name, including its rules of operation and other standards and policies
regarding, without limitation, life safety and security standards, all as may be
amended from time to time by Tenant in its reasonable discretion, provided that
such standards, taken as a whole, shall not be materially lower than such
standards in existence as of the date hereof. Landlord shall not be required to
maintain, repair or rebuild all or any part of the Premises. Tenant waives the
right to (x) require Landlord to maintain, repair or rebuild all or any part of
the Premises, or (y) make repairs at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any
Legal Requirement, contract, agreement, covenant, condition or restriction set
forth in Section 2.2(b)(ii), at any time in effect.

        (b)      In the event that all or any part of the Improvements shall
encroach upon any property, street or right-of-way adjoining or adjacent to any
Project, or shall violate the agreements or conditions affecting any Project or
any part thereof, or any Legal Requirement, or shall hinder, obstruct or impair
any easement or right-of-way to which a Project is subject, then, promptly after
written request of Landlord (unless such encroachment, violation, hindrance,
obstruction or impairment is a Permitted Exception) or of any person so
affected, Tenant shall, at its expense, either (i) obtain valid and effective
waivers or settlements of all claims, liabilities and damages resulting
therefrom, or (ii) make such changes, including alteration or removal, to the
Improvements and take such other action as shall be necessary to remove or
eliminate such encroachments, violations, hindrances, obstructions or
impairments, provided that, if Landlord's consent is required for such changes
pursuant to this Lease, Landlord's consent shall have been obtained, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

        2.6      Permitted Contests.

        (a)      Tenant shall not be required, nor shall Landlord have the
right, to pay, discharge or remove an Imposition, lien or encumbrance, or to
comply with any Legal Requirement applicable to the Premises or the use thereof,
as long as no Event of Default under this Lease shall have occurred and be
continuing and Tenant shall, in good faith, contest the existence, amount or
validity thereof by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued; and provided,
that (i) with respect to a failure to pay such Imposition, lien or encumbrance
or failure to perform such Legal Requirement, Tenant shall have provided
security as set forth in Section 2.6(b), which shall be deposited with Landlord
or, as required by the Indenture, Lender prior to the commencement of such
contest, (ii) Tenant shall give Landlord prior written notice of Tenant's intent
to contest such matter (other than in connection with customary real property
tax contests that require payment in full of the contested tax as a condition to
such contest), (iii) such contest and/or failure or delay to pay such
Imposition, lien or encumbrance or perform such Legal Requirement will not (1)
subject Landlord or Lender to any risk of criminal or any risk of civil
penalties or fines (other than de minimus charges) or to any risk of prosecution
for a crime, (2) subject any Project or any part thereof to being condemned,
vacated, forfeited or otherwise impaired, (3) have the effect of interrupting or
preventing the collection of any contested amount or other realization of value
from any Project or any part thereof or interest therein, the Basic Rent,
Additional Rent or any other sums payable under this Lease or any portion
thereof to satisfy the claim, (4) subject any Project, any portion thereof or
interest therein, the Basic Rent, Additional Rent or any other sums payable
under this Lease or any portion thereof to satisfy the claim, (5) subject any
Project, any portion thereof or interest therein, the Basic Rent, Additional
Rent or any other sums payable under this Lease or any portion thereof, to any
reasonable likelihood of sale, forfeiture, interruption or loss by reason of
such proceedings or (6) affect the ownership, lease or occupancy of any Project
or Landlord's ability or right to exercise its remedies under this Lease, or
Lender's ability or right to exercise its remedies under the Indenture,
including without limitation, foreclosure against the applicable Project and
(iv) Tenant shall pay any interest, late charges, fines and/or penalties
resulting from any such contest by Tenant; provided, further, that prior to the
date on which such Imposition or charge would otherwise have become delinquent
Tenant shall have given Landlord and Lender prior notice of such contest. To the
extent that the consent of Landlord is required with respect to any contest of
Tenant, Landlord agrees not to unreasonably withhold such consent, and upon such
consent, Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant to the extent so
required of Tenant's contest at Tenant's sole cost and expense.

        (b)      Tenant shall give such security (including a bond) as may be
reasonably required by Landlord or, as required by the Indenture, Lender to
ensure ultimate payment of such Imposition, lien or encumbrance (including any
interest, late charges, fines and/or penalties incurred in connection therewith)
and compliance with Legal Requirements and to prevent any sale, forfeiture,
interruption or loss of any Project or any portion thereof, any Basic Rent,
Additional Rent or other sums required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, by
reason of such nonpayment or noncompliance. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, during such time as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and either Tenant or a Guarantor (as hereinafter defined) has a
solicited long term unsecured debt rating (or, if neither Tenant nor any


                                       15
<PAGE>


Guarantor has a solicited long term unsecured debt rating, a corporate credit
rating) of, to the extent rated by any of the following, (i) not less than BB by
Standard & Poor's Rating Group, and Ba2 by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., and
NAIC 3 rating, in each case "stable" (an "Acceptable Credit Rating"), Tenant
shall not be required to provide such security with respect to a contest if the
contest involves claims for less than $250,000 for any particular Project and if
claims for less than $500,000 are then being contested for all Projects.

        2.7      Certain Deposits.

        (a)      Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has required the
establishment of a Capital Reserve Account (related to capital expenditures) and
a Rollover Reserve Account, which initially are to be left unfunded. Anything
contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if required by Landlord by
notice in writing to Tenant, Tenant agrees that it shall deposit with Landlord,
or, if directed by Landlord, to Lender (or its designee) (in the event such
deposits are required, Landlord hereby irrevocably directs Tenant to make such
deposits with Lender as long as the Indenture shall remain outstanding, and
Tenant hereby grants a security interest in such account to Landlord and
consents to the pledge of and the granting of a security interest in such
account by Landlord to Lender) such amount as reasonably determined by Landlord
in each such account on each Payment Date, as Additional Rent, one twelfth
(1/12) of all amounts required by Landlord to be deposited to any such account
for the Premises for the next twelve (12) months as reasonably estimated by
Landlord. To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither Landlord nor Lender
or its designee, as the case may be, shall be required to maintain such amounts
in an account separate from other funds of such party or to deposit any such
amounts in an interest-bearing account, provided, however, in the event such
amounts are maintained in an interest bearing account and no Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, Tenant shall be entitled to
receive any interest earned thereon on a quarterly basis. Tenant shall deposit
with Depository, prior to the date which is thirty (30) days prior to the
delinquent date of any such charge, such additional amount as may be necessary
to provide Depository with sufficient funds in such deposit account to pay each
such charge at least thirty (30) days in advance of the delinquent date thereof.
Depository shall apply the aforesaid deposits and interest, if any thereon for
such purpose not later than the last day on which any such charges may be paid
without penalty or interest. If, at any time, the amount of any such requirement
is increased or Landlord or Lender receives information that the cost of the
related replacement or repair will be increased, and if the monthly deposits
then being made by Tenant for this purpose (if continued) would not make up a
fund sufficient to pay such amounts thirty (30) days prior to the delinquent
date, or if Landlord shall determine in its reasonable judgement that the
amounts of such deposit will be insufficient for the payments due, said monthly
deposits thereupon shall be increased and Tenant immediately shall deposit with
the Depository, on demand, sufficient moneys so that the moneys then on hand for
the payment of said amounts, plus the increased payments and such additional
sums demanded, shall be sufficient so that the Depository shall have received
from Tenant adequate amounts to pay such amounts at least thirty (30) days
before such Imposition becomes due and payable. In the event the amount of the
funds deposited by Tenant exceeds the amount necessary to fully fund the
required deposits, then the Landlord shall decrease the amount required for
subsequent deposits under this Section 2.7(a). For purposes of determining
whether the Depository has on hand sufficient moneys to


                                       16
<PAGE>


pay the costs of any particular replacement or repair at least thirty (30) days
prior to the due date therefor, deposits for each category of replacement or
repair shall be treated separately, it being the intention that the Depository
shall not be obligated to use moneys deposited for the payment of an item not
yet due and payable to the payment of an item that is due and payable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that (i) to the
extent permitted by applicable law, deposits provided for hereunder may be held
by the Depository in a single bank account and commingled with other funds of
the Depository, and (ii) the Depository may, if Tenant fails to make any deposit
required hereunder, apply deposits made for any one replacement or repair for
the payment of the same, any other replacement or repair or any outstanding
Basic Rent or Additional Rent. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing under this Lease, all deposits then held by the Depository shall be
applied on account of any and all sums due under this Lease and Tenant shall
forthwith pay the resulting deficiency in accordance with the terms hereof. If
Landlord ceases to have any interest in any Project, Landlord shall direct the
Depository to transfer to the person or entity who owns or acquires such
interest in such Project and is the transferee of the Landlord's interest in
this Lease, the deposits made pursuant to the provisions hereof. In addition, in
the event that Lender (or a servicing agent on Lender's behalf) is the
Depository, Lender shall have the right to transfer the deposits (or to cause
its servicing agent to transfer such deposits) to any transferee of the
Indenture or to the holder of any substitute Indenture. Upon any such transfer
of the deposits, after acknowledgement of such transfer by the transferee and
notice thereof to Tenant, the transferor shall be deemed to be released from all
liability with respect thereto and Tenant agrees to look to the transferee
solely with respect thereto, and the provisions hereof shall apply to each
successive transfer of the said deposits. Tenant shall be deemed the owner of
any such deposit and shall pay all taxes associated therewith. Tenant's
obligations under this Section 2.7 shall survive expiration or early termination
of the Lease.

        (b)      Tenant shall not be required to make the deposits with respect
to the Capital Reserve Account required by Section 2.7(a) so long as (i) no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, (ii) Tenant shall
have permitted Landlord or Lender, subject to Section 10.14, to make periodic
inspections of each Project and such inspections taken as a whole shall not
demonstrate the need for deferred maintenance (i.e., repairs and/or maintenance
which in the reasonable opinion of the Landlord or Lender based on a property
condition report prepared by an engineer selected by Landlord or Lender in its
sole discretion should have been previously performed in accordance with the
requirements of this Lease) in excess of the Capital Reserve Trigger Amount in
the aggregate. Tenant's obligation to make the deposits required with respect to
the Capital Reserve Account under Section 2.7(a) shall immediately resume and
shall continue in the event of the failure of the conditions set forth in
clauses (i) or (ii) above until the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease; provided that, Tenant's obligation to make the deposits required with
respect to the Capital Reserve Account under Section 2.7(a) by reason of the
failure of the condition set forth in clause (ii) above shall not resume unless
such failure continues for 30 days after Tenant receives notice thereof from
Landlord (provided, however, that if such condition cannot reasonably be
satisfied within such 30-day period, and Tenant shall have commenced to satisfy
such condition within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently and
expeditiously proceeds to satisfy the same, such 30-day period shall be extended
for an additional period of time as is reasonably necessary for Tenant in the
exercise of due diligence to


                                       17
<PAGE>


satisfy such condition). If Tenant's obligation to make the deposits required
with respect to the Capital Reserve Account under Section 2.7(a) is triggered by
the failure of the condition set forth in clause (ii), then in addition to the
obligation to make the payments required under Section 2.7(a), Tenant shall also
deposit into the Capital Reserve Account 125% of the estimated cost of the
deferred maintenance (as estimated by Landlord) and shall promptly perform such
repairs. For purposes of this Lease, "Capital Reserve Trigger Amount" shall mean
$250,000, adjusted annually by a percentage equal to the increase in the
Consumer Price Index in years subsequent to the date of this Lease, but in no
event by an amount in excess of 2.5% annually. For purposes of this Section
2.7(b), "Consumer Price Index" shall mean the Consumer Price Index for All Urban
Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States
Department of Labor, New York Metropolitan Statistical Area, All Items (1982-84
= 100), or any successor index thereto, approximately adjusted. In the event
that the Consumer Price Index is converted to a different standard reference
base or otherwise revised, the determination of adjustments provided for herein
shall be made with the use of such conversion factor, formula or table for
converting the Consumer Price Index as may be published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics or, if said Bureau shall not publish the same, then with the use of
such conversion factor, formula or table as may be published by Prentice-Hall,
Inc., or any other nationally recognized publisher of similar statistical
information. If the Consumer Price Index ceases to be published, and there is no
successor thereto, (x) such other index as Landlord and Tenant shall agree upon
in writing or (y) Landlord and Tenant cannot agree, such other index as
reasonably selected by Landlord, shall be substituted for the Consumer Price
Index. The amount of any deposit required by Section 2.7(a) with respect to the
Capital Reserve Account shall be limited to an amount per year equal to the
product obtained by multiplying $0.16 by the aggregate number of rentable square
feet of space in all Projects.

        (c)      Tenant shall not be required to make the deposits required
under Section 2.7(a) with respect to the Rollover Reserve Account provided that
(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, (ii)
Tenant has a net worth in excess of $100,000,000, and (iii) Tenant is
maintaining a Rent Coverage Ratio with respect to all Projects of at least
1.25:1. Tenant's obligation to make the deposits required under Section 2.7(a)
with respect to the Rollover Reserve Account shall immediately resume and shall
continue (A) in the event of the failure of any condition set forth in clause
(i) of this Section 2.7(c) until the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease, and (B) in the event of a failure of the condition set forth in clause
(ii) or (iii), until such time as the condition set forth in each of clauses
(ii) and (iii) shall have been satisfied as of the end of any calendar quarter.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.7(c), at
any time Tenant shall have a Net Worth equal to or less than $150,000,000 or the
Rent Coverage Ratio with respect to all Projects is less than 1.5:1, Tenant
shall be required to make the monthly deposits required with respect to the
Rollover Reserve Account under Section 2.7(a) (but only such portion of the
monthly deposits attributable to the affected Project or Projects) with respect
to any Project where Tenant (or a subtenant of Tenant pursuant to a sublease
entered into in accordance with this Lease) is not in occupancy and open for
business (unless such Project is not open for business (x) for a period of up to
three months in connection with renovation or (y) for a period of less than
eighteen months in connection with repairs to a Project that Tenant is permitted
to rebuild, replace or repair and is rebuilding, replacing or repairing in
accordance with the provisions of Section 3.6 and in good


                                       18
<PAGE>


faith intends to reopen for business). Tenant's obligation to make the required
deposits in accordance with the preceding sentence shall continue until such
time as Tenant shall have a Net Worth in excess of $150,000,000 and a Rent
Coverage Ratio with respect to all of the Projects at least equal to 1.5:1. If
Tenant shall at any time become obligated to make the required monthly deposits
with respect to the Rollover Reserve Account set forth in Section 2.7(a) (or a
portion of such monthly deposits in accordance with this Section 2.7(c)) then
Tenant shall, in addition to making such monthly deposits, deposit into the
Rollover Reserve Account an amount equal to the aggregate deposits Tenant would
have made into the Rollover Reserve Account if Tenant had been required to make
such deposits in accordance with Section 2.7(a) from the initial date of this
Lease. Provided no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the balance of the Rollover Reserve Account (or, with respect to a
release of funds pursuant to clause (iii) below, such portion of the balance of
the Rollover Reserve Account attributable to the subject Project) shall be
released to Tenant within 5 days of Tenant's request therefor, if, as of any
calendar quarter (i) Tenant shall have a Net Worth in excess of $150,000,000 and
(ii) Tenant shall maintain a Rent Coverage Ratio with respect to all of the
Projects at least equal to 1.5:1 or (iii) with respect to any Project for which
a deposit was made because neither Tenant nor any subtenant pursuant to a
sublease entered into in accordance with this Lease are open for business, upon
either (A) Landlord's and Lender's receipt of an estoppel certificate from such
subtenant or a replacement subtenant pursuant to which such subtenant or
replacement subtenant certifies to Landlord and Lender that (1) such subtenant
or replacement subtenant has taken occupancy of its demised premises, (2) such
subtenant or replacement subtenant has commenced the payment of rent under its
sublease and (3) that such subtenant or replacement subtenant is obligated
pursuant to its sublease to occupy its demised premises and pay rent under its
sublease for a period of no less than five years from the date of such estoppel
certificate or (B) Landlord's and Lender's receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to each of them that Tenant has opened for business at such Project
and has continuously operated its business at such Project for twelve
consecutive months. The amount of any deposit required by Section 2.7(a) with
respect to the Rollover Reserve Account is initially anticipated to be an amount
per year equal to the product obtained by multiplying $0.50 by the aggregate
number of square feet of selling space in the Projects and shall in no event
exceed $3,000,000 in the aggregate.

        (d)      Landlord shall disburse, or shall cause Lender to disburse,
funds held in the Capital Reserve Account to Tenant, within 15 days after the
delivery by Tenant to Landlord and Lender of a request therefor (but not more
often than once per month), in increments of at least $5,000 provided that (i)
such disbursement is for a capital expense approved in advance by Landlord; (ii)
Landlord shall have (if it desires) verified (by an inspection conducted at
Tenant's expense) performance of the work associated with such capital expense;
and (iii) the request for disbursement is accompanied by (A) a certificate of
Tenant's chief financial officer certifying (1) that such funds will be used to
pay or reimburse Tenant for such capital expenses and a description thereof, (2)
that the same has not been the subject of a previous disbursement and (3) that
all previous disbursements have been used to pay the previously identified
approved capital expenses, and (B) lien waivers or other evidence of payment
satisfactory to Landlord, (C) at Landlord's option, a title search for the
applicable Project or Projects indicating that such Project or Projects are free
from all liens, claims and other encumbrances not previously approved by
Landlord and (D) such other evidence as Landlord shall reasonably request that
the capital


                                       19
<PAGE>


expenditures at the subject Project or Projects to be funded by the requested
disbursement have been completed and are paid for or will be paid upon such
disbursement to Tenant.

        (e)      Landlord shall disburse, or shall cause Lender to disburse,
funds held in the Rollover Reserve Account to Tenant, within 15 days after the
delivery by Tenant to Landlord of a request therefor (but not more often than
once per month), in increments of at least $5,000, provided (i) such
disbursement is for a leasing expense approved by Landlord; (ii) Landlord shall
have (if it desires) verified (by an inspection conducted at Tenant's expense)
performance of any construction work associated with such leasing expense; and
(iii) the request for disbursement is accompanied by (A) a certificate of
Tenant's chief financial officer certifying (w) that such funds will be used
only to pay (or reimburse Tenant for) such approved leasing expenses and a
description thereof, (x) that the same has not been the subject of a previous
disbursement, and (y) that all previous disbursements have been used only to pay
(or reimburse Tenant for) the previously identified approved leasing expenses,
and (B) reasonably detailed supporting documentation as to the amount, necessity
and purpose therefor.

        (f)      Tenant shall have the option, at any time when no Event of
Default exists, to deliver a Letter of Credit in a face amount equal to the sum
then required to be on deposit in the Capital Reserve Account and having a term
of one year (the "Capital Reserve L/C"). Upon the delivery by Tenant of the
Capital Reserve L/C, Landlord shall return or cause to be returned to Tenant the
then balance in the Capital Reserve Account. Tenant's delivery of the Capital
Reserve L/C in accordance with this Section 2.7(f) shall not reduce Tenant's
obligation to make subsequent deposits into the Capital Reserve Account as
required in accordance with Section 2.7(a). Provided no Event of Default then
exists, Landlord shall return or cause to be returned the Capital Reserve L/C to
Tenant upon the satisfaction of the conditions to the release of the balance of
the Capital Reserve Account set forth in Section 2.7(d); provided that, at such
time as Tenant is entitled to a partial disbursement of proceeds from the
Capital Reserve Account in accordance with Section 2.7(d), Landlord shall,
provided no Event of Default then exists, agree to accept a new Capital Reserve
L/C or an amendment to the Capital Reserve L/C which will have the effect of
reducing the Capital Reserve L/C to an amount equal to the then aggregate
required balance of the Capital Reserve Account. Landlord (or Lender) shall have
the right, but not the obligation, to draw down all or any portion of the
Capital Reserve L/C and deposit the proceeds thereof into the Capital Reserve
Account to be held in accordance with this Section 2.7, upon the occurrence of
any of the following:

        (i)      if Landlord and Lender receive a Non-Renewal Notice (as
                 hereinafter defined), twenty-five days before the expiration of
                 the Capital Reserve L/C, but only if Tenant has not previously
                 delivered a replacement Capital Reserve L/C;

        (ii)     if Landlord receives a notice from the issuer of the Capital
                 Reserve L/C that the Capital Reserve L/C will be terminated,
                 twenty-five days before the effective date of the termination,
                 but only if Tenant has not previously delivered a replacement
                 Capital Reserve L/C; or



                                       20
<PAGE>


        (iii)    ten Business Days after Landlord has notified Tenant that the
                 issuer of the Capital Reserve L/C is no longer an Approved
                 Bank, but only if Tenant has not previously delivered a
                 replacement Capital Reserve L/C.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.7 or
elsewhere in this Lease, neither Landlord nor Lender shall have any obligation
to draw on the Capital Reserve L/C upon the happening of an event described in
clauses (i) through (iv) above, and neither Landlord nor Lender shall be liable
for any losses sustained by Tenant due to the insolvency of the issuer of the
Capital Reserve L/C, notwithstanding that neither Landlord nor Lender elected to
draw on the Capital Reserve L/C. If for any reason the Capital Reserve L/C shall
expire without a replacement Capital Reserve L/C having been delivered to
Landlord, Tenant shall within 5 days after demand, unless Landlord or Lender
shall have drawn on the Capital Reserve L/C prior to its expiration, deliver to
Landlord a new Capital Reserve L/C. "Letter of Credit" shall mean an
irrevocable, unconditional, transferable, clean sight draft, letter of credit in
favor of Landlord, or, at any time the Loan is in place, Lender, and entitling
Landlord or Lender, as the case may be, to draw thereon in New York, New York,
issued by a domestic Approved Bank or the U.S. agency or branch of a foreign
Approved Bank, to Tenant or an applicant/obligor that is an Affiliate of Tenant,
which letter of credit shall provide that such letter of credit shall be deemed
to be automatically renewed, without amendment, for consecutive periods of one
year each, unless the issuing bank sends a written notice (a "Non-Renewal
Notice") to Landlord and Lender by certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested, not less than thirty (30) days next preceding the then expiration
date of such letter of credit, that it elects not to have such letter of credit
renewed. "Approved Bank" shall mean a bank whose long term unsecured debt
obligations are rated at least "AA" by Standard & Poor's Rating Group or,
provided that Tenant delivers a confirmation to the effect described in Section
3.4(d)(ii), such other bank whose long term unsecured debt obligations are rated
at least "A" by Standard & Poor's Rating Group; provided, however, that any
Letter of Credit supplied in connection with the immediately preceding proviso
shall be for an amount not in excess of $100,000.

        (g)      Tenant shall have the option, at any time when no Event of
Default exists, to deliver a Letter of Credit in a face amount equal to the sum
then required to be on deposit in the Rollover Reserve Account and having a term
of one year (the "Rollover Reserve L/C"). Upon the delivery by Tenant of the
Rollover Reserve L/C, Landlord shall return or cause to be returned to Tenant
the then balance in the Rollover Reserve Account. Tenant's delivery of the
Rollover Reserve L/C in accordance with this Section 2.7(g) shall not reduce
Tenant's obligation to make subsequent deposits into the Rollover Reserve
Account as required in accordance with Section 2.7(a). Provided no Event of
Default then exists, Landlord shall return or cause to be returned the Rollover
Reserve L/C to Tenant upon the satisfaction of the conditions to the release of
the balance of the Rollover Reserve Account set forth in Section 2.7(e);
provided that, at such time as Tenant is entitled to a partial disbursement of
proceeds from the Rollover Reserve Account in accordance with Section 2.7(e),
Landlord shall, provided no Event of Default then exists, agree to accept a new
Rollover Reserve L/C or an amendment to the Rollover Reserve L/C which will have
the effect of reducing the Rollover Reserve L/C to an amount equal to the then
aggregate required balance of the Rollover Reserve Account. Landlord (or Lender)
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to draw down all or any portion of
the


                                       21
<PAGE>


Rollover Reserve L/C and deposit the proceeds thereof into the Rollover Reserve
Account to be held in accordance with this Section 2.7, upon the occurrence of
any of the following:

        (i)      Landlord and Lender receive a Non-Renewal Notice, twenty-five
                 days before the expiration of the Rollover Reserve L/C, but
                 only if Tenant has not previously delivered a replacement
                 Rollover Reserve L/C;

        (ii)     if Landlord receives a notice from the issuer of the Rollover
                 Reserve L/C that the Rollover Reserve L/C will be terminated,
                 twenty-five days before the effective date of the termination,
                 but only if Tenant has not previously delivered a replacement
                 Rollover Reserve L/C; or

        (iii)    ten Business Days after Landlord has notified Tenant that the
                 issuer of the Rollover Reserve L/C is no longer an Approved
                 Bank, but only if Tenant has not previously delivered a
                 replacement Rollover Reserve L/C.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.7 or
elsewhere in this Lease, neither Landlord nor Lender shall have any obligation
to draw on the Rollover Reserve L/C upon the happening of an event described in
clauses (i) through (iv) above, and neither Landlord nor Lender shall be liable
for any losses sustained by Tenant due to the insolvency of the issuer of the
Rollover Reserve L/C, notwithstanding that neither Landlord nor Lender elected
not to draw on the Rollover Reserve L/C. If for any reason the Rollover Reserve
L/C shall expire without a replacement Rollover Reserve L/C having been
delivered to Landlord, Tenant shall within 5 days after demand, unless Landlord
or Lender shall have drawn on the Rollover Reserve L/C prior to its expiration,
deliver to Landlord a new Rollover Reserve L/C.


        2.8      Assignment to Lender. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord will
assign this Lease, together with any security deposit to be posted hereunder, to
Lender as collateral for the Loan and consents thereto.

                                   ARTICLE 3.

        3.1      Procedure Upon Purchase.

        (a)      If Tenant shall purchase one or more Projects pursuant to this
Lease, Landlord shall convey or cause to be conveyed title thereto on an "as is,
where is" basis and without recourse to or warranty by the Landlord, and Tenant
or its designee shall accept such title, subject to the condition of the
applicable Project on the date of purchase, the Permitted Exceptions, all liens
and encumbrances created by, through, under or with the consent of Tenant and
all applicable Legal Requirements (including, without limitation, the power of
eminent domain), and subject to the same disclaimers as set forth in Section 1.1
(b), but free of the lien of the Indenture and of liens and encumbrances
resulting from acts of Landlord taken without the consent of Tenant.


                                       22
<PAGE>


        (b)      Upon the date fixed for any purchase of any Project, Tenant
shall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, pay to Landlord, or as
Landlord may direct in writing, the purchase price therefor specified herein,
together with all Basic Rent, Additional Rent, the Make Whole Premium (as
hereinafter defined), if applicable, and other sums then accrued or due and
payable under this Lease with respect to the applicable Project to and including
such date of purchase, and there shall be delivered to Tenant a deed to or other
conveyance of the interests in the applicable Project or portion thereof then
being sold to Tenant and any other instruments necessary to convey the title
thereto described in Section 3.1(a) and to assign any other property then
required to be assigned by Landlord pursuant hereto. Tenant shall pay, on an
after-tax basis, (i) all charges incident to such conveyance and assignment,
including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees, escrow fees, recording
fees, title insurance premiums, transfer taxes and all other applicable taxes
(other than any income or franchise taxes of Landlord) which may be imposed by
reason of such conveyance and assignment and the delivery of said deed or
conveyance and other instruments, (ii) all costs and expenses (other than the
Make Whole Premium) incurred by Landlord in connection with a defeasance of all
or any portion of the indebtedness secured by the Indenture, including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses of Landlord, Lender and the
Rating Agencies (as hereinafter defined), any revenue, documentary stamp or
intangible taxes, or any other tax or charge due in connection with the transfer
or creation of the note or notes which evidence the indebtedness secured by the
Indenture or the defeased indebtedness, and (iii) all costs and expenses
associated with the release of the lien of the Indenture from the applicable
Project. Upon the completion of any purchase of an entire Project (but not of
any lesser interest than an entire Project) but not prior thereto (whether or
not any delay or failure in the completion of such purchase shall be the fault
of Landlord), this Lease shall terminate with respect to such Project, except
with respect to obligations and liabilities of Tenant under this Lease, actual
or contingent, which have arisen on or prior to such completion of purchase or
which, pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, survive such termination. The
"Make Whole Premium" shall have the meaning set forth in the Indenture, or if
not defined in the Indenture, shall mean the amount which Landlord is obligated
to pay in excess of outstanding principal and accrued interest in connection
with a full or partial prepayment or defeasance of the Indenture, which
prepayment or defeasance arises as a result of the event giving rise to the Make
Whole Premium; provided that notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease
to the contrary, Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord or Lender for any Make
Whole Premium in the event of a purchase by Tenant of a Project pursuant to a
Rejectable Offer (as hereinafter defined) in the event of a Major Casualty or
Major Condemnation (as hereinafter defined). To the extent that the provisions
of this Lease require Tenant to pay sums then accrued or due and payable under
this Lease with respect to a Project on a Lease Termination Date (as hereinafter
defined) and such Lease Termination Date does not occur on a Payment Date, such
accrued amounts shall include all Basic Rent allocated to the applicable Project
(such amount to be determined by multiplying the then annual Basic Rent by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the allocated adjustment amount allocated to
the applicable Project in Schedule G attached hereto and made a part hereof, and
the denominator of which is the aggregate amount allocated in Schedule G to all
Projects then subject to this Lease) from and including the immediately
preceding Payment Date, through and including such Lease Termination Date
(allocated on a per diem basis based on a 360-day year for the annual Basic Rent
and the actual number of days elapsed) plus any additional interest (which may
include


                                       23
<PAGE>


interest attributable to a period subsequent to the Lease Termination Date if
such Lease Termination Date is other than the first day of a month (or such
other date in which a loan payment is due under the Loan Agreement)) or other
expenses payable under the Loan in connection with prepayment of the Loan.
Tenant acknowledges that, notwithstanding certain provisions permitting rights
of purchase or substitution in connection with a Major Casualty, a Major
Condemnation or a Project becoming Economically Obsolete, this Lease is a single
unitary master lease, that the entering into by Tenant of this single, unitary
master lease was a material inducement to Landlord to purchase the Projects from
the Seller and that Landlord would not have purchased any Project independently
or the Projects as a whole without the inducement of this single, unitary master
lease.

        (c)      In the event that this Lease shall be terminated with respect
to a particular Project upon purchase of such Project by Tenant or upon
rejection of a Rejectable Offer (as hereinafter defined) or a Rejectable
Substitution Offer (as hereinafter defined), the Basic Rent from and after the
applicable Lease Termination Date shall be adjusted to reflect the termination
of the applicable Project in the manner set forth in Schedule E attached hereto
and made a part hereof. In the event of the termination of this Lease with
respect to a particular Project as a result of a substitution, the Basic Rent
shall not be adjusted.

        3.2      Condemnation and Casualty.

        (a)      General Provisions. Subject to Tenant's rights to utilize or
obtain the same in accordance with Section 3.2(b) and Section 3.6, Tenant hereby
irrevocably assigns to Landlord any award, compensation or insurance payment to
which Tenant may become entitled by reason of Tenant's interest in the Premises
(i) if the use, occupancy or title of a Project or any part thereof is taken,
requisitioned or sold in, by or on account of any actual or threatened eminent
domain proceeding or other action by any person having the power of eminent
domain ("Condemnation") or (ii) if a Project or any part thereof is damaged or
destroyed by fire, flood or other casualty ("Casualty") (all awards,
compensations, and insurance payments on account of any Condemnation or Casualty
net of (A) any amounts applicable to Tenant's Personal Property (B) provided
that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any amounts
applicable to the interruption of Tenant's business within the affected Project
hereinafter collectively called "Compensation"). In the event of any Casualty,
or in the event of a Condemnation or threatened Condemnation with respect to a
Project, Tenant shall give prompt written notice thereof to Landlord, with a
copy to Lender, (which notice shall set forth Tenant's good faith estimate of
the cost of repairing or restoring any damage or destruction caused thereby, or,
if Tenant cannot reasonably estimate the anticipated cost of restoration, Tenant
shall nonetheless give Landlord, with a copy to Lender prompt notice of the
occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, and will diligently proceed to
obtain estimates to enable Tenant to quantify the anticipated cost of such
restoration, whereupon Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord, with a copy to
Lender, of such good faith estimate). If a Casualty covered by any insurance
policy maintained in accordance with the terms hereof (an "Insured Casualty")
occurs where the loss does not exceed $250,000, provided no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Tenant may settle and adjust any claim
without the prior consent of Landlord; provided such adjustment is carried out
in a competent and timely manner, and Tenant is hereby


                                       24
<PAGE>


authorized to collect and receipt for the insurance proceeds (the "Proceeds").
In the event of an Insured Casualty where the loss equals or exceeds $250,000 (a
"Significant Casualty"), Tenant may settle and adjust any claim, provided that
(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) such
claim is settled in a timely and competent manner, (iii) each of Landlord and
Lender may, at its option, participate in the settlement and adjustment of any
claim, (iv) Tenant shall not settle any such claim without the prior written
consent of each of Landlord and Lender, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld and (v) the Proceeds shall be due and payable solely to Landlord or, if
required by the Indenture, Lender. The expenses incurred by Landlord and Lender
in the settlement, adjustment and collection of the Proceeds shall be reimbursed
by Tenant upon demand. In the event of a Condemnation, Tenant may settle and
adjust any claim, provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, (ii) such claim is settled in a timely and competent manner,
(iii) each of Landlord and Lender may, at its option, participate in the
settlement and adjustment of any claim and (iv) Tenant shall not settle any such
claim without the prior written consent of each of Landlord and Lender, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and (v) the proceeds of such
Condemnation shall be due and payable solely to Landlord or, if required by the
Indenture, Lender. All Compensation shall be paid directly to Landlord (or at
Landlord's discretion, to Lender) and shall be applied pursuant to the
applicable provisions of Article 3, and all such Compensation (less the
reasonable costs and expenses of Landlord, Tenant and Lender, if applicable, in
collecting such Compensation), is herein called the "Net Proceeds".

        (b)      Major Condemnation and Major Casualty. If (i) a Condemnation
shall take more than twenty percent (20%) of the land area of a Project and is
reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Tenant's business
conducted at the Project, or (ii) the Net Proceeds of such Condemnation shall be
for an amount in excess of $2,000,000, or (iii) if a Casualty shall affect more
than fifty percent (50%) (or twenty percent (20%) if in connection with a
Rejectable Substitution Offer described in Section 3.3(a)(i)(B)) of the building
area in a Project, and any such event shall render such Project unsuitable for
restoration for continued use and occupancy in Tenant's business, or (iv) there
is taken or conveyed, such that restoration is not practically or economically
feasible, (A) a portion of the parking area contained within the applicable
Project such that the remaining portion of said parking area contains greater
than or equal to twenty percent (20%) fewer parking spaces than existed at such
Project immediately prior to such casualty or condemnation, or (B) any part of
the loading and maneuvering area serving the Premises such that loading or
maneuvering becomes impractical, or (C) any of the entrances or exits to the
Land, or (v) if as a result of such Casualty or Condemnation the affected
Project cannot be restored within eighteen (18) months to the affected Project's
pre-existing condition and utility as existed immediately prior to such Insured
Casualty or Condemnation and to an economic unit not less valuable and not less
useful than the same was immediately prior to such Insured Casualty or
Condemnation or (vi) if such Condemnation or Casualty shall otherwise render
such Project unsuitable for restoration for continued use and occupancy in
Tenant's business and Tenant shall provide evidence thereof reasonably
acceptable to Landlord (herein, a "Major Casualty" and a "Major Condemnation"),
then Tenant may, and in connection with any event described in clause (v) shall,
not later than thirty (30) days after such Major Condemnation or Major Casualty,
as the case may be, deliver to Landlord (x) notice of its intention to terminate
this Lease with respect to such Project on the first Payment Date (herein, with
respect to any


                                       25
<PAGE>


termination resulting from a Rejectable Offer or a Rejectable Substitution
Offer, the "Lease Termination Date") which occurs not less than one hundred
twenty (120) days and not more than one hundred fifty (150) days after the
delivery of such notice (it being understood that in all events under this
Lease, the Lease Termination Date must be on a Payment Date) and (y) a
certificate of Tenant describing the event giving rise to such termination and
stating that Tenant has determined in good faith that such Major Condemnation or
Major Casualty, as the case may be, has rendered the applicable Project
unsuitable for restoration for continued use and occupancy in Tenant's business,
and (z) documentation to the effect that termination of this Lease with respect
to such Project will not be in material violation of any agreement then in
effect with which Tenant is obligated to comply pursuant to this Lease. If the
Lease Termination Date occurs during the Primary Term, such notice must be
accompanied by either a Rejectable Offer or a Rejectable Substitution Offer, as
described in Section 3.3, in which event the provisions of such Section shall be
controlling.

        3.3      Rejectable Offer and Substitution.

        (a)      In the event of a Major Casualty or Major Condemnation during
the Primary Term, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, no later than thirty (30)
days after such Major Casualty or Major Condemnation, (i) either (A) an
irrevocable rejectable written offer (the "Rejectable Offer") to purchase
Landlord's interest in the affected Project on the Lease Termination Date for a
price equal to the "Stipulated Loss Value" as specified on Schedule F attached
hereto and made a part hereof, or (B) provided that the proposed Lease
Termination Date is after the earlier of (1) forty two (42) months from the date
hereof and (2) two (2) years from the "starting day" (within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the
regulations promulgated thereunder (the "Code")) of the securitization of the
Loan (as hereinafter defined) (the "Lockup Period") so long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, an irrevocable written offer (the
"Rejectable Substitution Offer") to substitute a Substitute Project (as
hereinafter defined), for the affected Project on the Lease Termination Date in
accordance with Section 3.4, and (ii) a certificate from the president, the
chief financial officer or the treasurer of Tenant (herein, a "Responsible
Officer") which (A) describes the event(s) giving rise to the Major Casualty or
Major Condemnation, as the case may be, and (B) states that Tenant has
determined that such event has rendered such Project unsuitable for restoration
or for the continued use and occupancy in Tenant's business, and (iii) if Tenant
delivers a Rejectable Substitution Offer, the following items (herein, the
"Substitution Documents") (A) a description of the proposed Substitute Project,
(B) an Acceptable Appraisal of the Replaced Project (as hereinafter defined),

                                       26
<PAGE>


for adverse tax consequences. Within ninety (90) days of the date Landlord
receives the items required to be delivered in (i), (ii) and (iii) above, as
applicable, (x) if Landlord receives a Rejectable Offer, Landlord shall deliver
written notice of its election to either accept or reject Tenant's Rejectable
Offer (with a failure to respond constituting an acceptance of such Rejectable
Offer), and (y) if Landlord receives a Rejectable Substitution Offer, Landlord
shall deliver written notice of its election to either accept or reject the
Rejectable Substitution Offer (with a failure to respond constituting an
acceptance of such Rejectable Substitution Offer), provided that the
Substitution (as hereinafter defined) satisfies the conditions of Section 3.4
(it being specifically understood that an acceptance of the Rejectable
Substitution Offer shall not constitute satisfaction of any of the conditions
set forth in Section 3.4). Any rejection by Landlord of a Rejectable Offer or
Rejectable Substitution Offer shall comply with and be accomplished in
accordance with the provisions of Section 3.5. In the event of an acceptance or
deemed acceptance of a Rejectable Offer, on the applicable Lease Termination
Date, the applicable Project shall be conveyed to Tenant or its designee in
exchange for payment by Tenant to Landlord of the applicable Stipulated Loss
Value, together with all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums accrued or

of the conditions set forth in Section 3.4) be conveyed to Tenant or its
designee in exchange for delivery of the Substitute Project, and upon payment by
Tenant to Landlord of all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums accrued or
due and payable under this Lease with respect to the applicable Project as of
the Lease Termination Date and on the applicable Lease Termination Date, the Net
Proceeds, if any, payable in connection with the Major Casualty or Major
Condemnation triggering the right to make such Rejectable Substitution Offer (or
the right to receive the same when made if payment therefor has not yet been
made) shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
3.3., be assigned and/or turned over to the Tenant on the closing of the title
for the Replaced Project, provided that all amounts payable to Landlord in
connection with such acceptance or deemed acceptance of a Rejectable
Substitution Offer have been paid. For purposes of this Section 3.3, an
appraisal, report, survey, environmental report, operating statement,
engineering report, or any other document permitted to be delivered pursuant to
this Section 3.3, shall be "current" if it is dated within one hundred twenty
(120) days prior to the proposed Lease Termination date. Acceptable Appraisal
shall mean an appraisal of a proposed Substitute Project that is (i) dated not
more than 120 days prior to the applicable Lease Termination Date, (ii) signed

thereto, and Title XI of the Federal Institutions Reform, Recovery, and
Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (v)
otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord and the Lender in all
respects.

        (b)      In the event that a Project becomes Economically Obsolete,
Tenant shall be allowed, provided that the Lockup Period has expired, to deliver
to Landlord (i) (x) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and (y) the substitution complies with all REMIC (as hereinafter
defined) or other securitization regulations applicable to the Loan, a
Rejectable Substitution Offer to substitute a Substitute Project for the
affected Project on the Lease Termination Date in accordance with Section 3.4,
and (ii) a certificate from a Responsible Officer of Tenant which (A) describes
the event(s) giving rise to the Project becoming Economically Obsolete, (B)
states that Tenant has determined that the Project is Economically Obsolete, and
(C) states that Tenant shall not use such Project in Tenant's business for five
(5) years after the closing of the transfer of the Project and (iii) the

the items referenced in (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 3.3(b), Landlord
shall deliver written notice of its election to either accept or reject Tenant's
Rejectable Substitution Offer (with a failure to respond constituting an
acceptance of such Rejectable Substitution Offer), provided that the
Substitution satisfies the conditions of Section 3.4 (it being specifically
understood that an acceptance of the Rejectable Substitution Offer shall not
constitute satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Section 3.4). In
the event of an acceptance or deemed acceptance of a Rejectable Substitution
Offer, on the applicable Lease Termination Date, the applicable Project shall
(upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.4) be conveyed to
Tenant or its designee in exchange for delivery of the Substitute Project, and
upon payment by Tenant to Landlord of all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other
sums accrued or due and payable under this Lease with respect to the applicable
Project as of the Lease Termination Date. "Economically Obsolete" shall mean (i)
a Project occupied by Tenant which, for a period of the immediately preceding
eight quarters, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, has a Rent Coverage Ratio
of less than 1.25 to 1, as certified by a Responsible Officer of Tenant in
writing to Landlord, having exercised reasonable business judgment in making its
determination or (ii) a Project occupied by a sublessee permitted by this Lease
pursuant to a sublease under which such sublessee is paying rent equal to less
than 125% of the portion of Basic Rent allocable to such Project.

        (c)      In addition to the Substitution rights set forth in Sections
3.3(a) and (b), during the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall be allowed, provided
that the Lockup Period has expired, and provided that (x) no Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing and (y) the substitution complies with all
REMIC (as hereinafter defined) or other securitization regulations applicable to
the Loan, to make a Substitution pursuant to a Rejectable Substitution Offer
with respect to a maximum of two (2) Projects, provided that Tenant complies
with the provisions of this Section and the other provisions of this Lease.
Landlord agrees that Tenant may request Landlord's consent to the right to make
one additional Substitution pursuant to this Section 3.3(c), the granting or
rejection of such request to be Landlord's sole and absolute discretion and
subject to Lender's prior written consent. In the event that Tenant shall desire
to utilize such right, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (i) an irrevocable
Rejectable Substitution

Offer to substitute a Substitute Project for the affected Project on the Lease
Termination Date in accordance with Section 3.4, and (ii) the Substitution
Documents. Within ninety (90) days of the date Landlord receives the items
referenced in (i) and (ii) of this Section 3.3(c), Landlord shall deliver
written notice of its election to either accept or reject Tenant's Rejectable
Substitution Offer (with a failure to respond within such ninety (90) day period
constituting an acceptance of such Rejectable Substitution Offer), provided that
the Substitution satisfies the conditions of Section 3.4 (it being specifically
understood that an acceptance of the Rejectable Substitution Offer shall not
constitute satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Section 3.4). In
the event of an acceptance or deemed acceptance of a Rejectable Substitution
Offer, on the applicable Lease Termination Date, the Replaced Project shall
(upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.4) be conveyed to
Tenant or its designee in exchange for delivery of the Substitute Project, and
Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses associated therewith, as outlined herein
with respect to any other Substitution. If Landlord rejected a Rejectable
Substitution Offer that satisfies the conditions for Substitution set forth
herein under this Section 3.3(c), then this Lease shall terminate on the Lease
Termination Date with respect to such Project in accordance with the provisions
of Section 3.5.

        (d)      In the event that Landlord receives a Rejectable Substitution
Offer, Landlord shall, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the
Substitution Documents, deliver to Tenant its written approval or disapproval of
the matters contained in the Substitution Documents, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld (with a failure to deliver notice within such forty-five
(45) day period constituting disapproval). An approval of the Substitution
Documents shall not constitute an acceptance of the Rejectable Substitution
Offer, and a disapproval of the Substitution Documents shall not constitute a
rejection of the Rejectable Substitution Offer. An acceptance or rejection of
the Rejectable Substitution Offer shall be accomplished only in accordance with
Sections 3.3(a) and 3.3(b) above. If Landlord approves of the Substitution
Documents (it being understood that such approval shall not constitute
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.4, but such approval shall
estop Landlord from later objecting to items previously specifically approved in
writing, but not those items arising subsequent to such approval), the parties
shall proceed to Substitution, provided that Landlord ultimately accepts the
Rejectable Substitution Offer and provided that Tenant ultimately satisfies the
conditions of Section 3.4 for Substitution. If Landlord disapproves of the
Substitution Documents (or any portion thereof), Tenant shall have up to thirty
(30) days to cure any matter to which Landlord has objected. If Landlord has not
approved of such matter in writing within five (5) days of Tenant's cure
thereof, Tenant shall not be allowed to make the Substitution.

        (e)      Tenant agrees that so long as any portion of the note secured
by the Indenture is outstanding, Tenant shall deliver to Lender, concurrently
with the delivery thereof to Landlord, a copy of any notice of termination of
this Lease (in whole or in part) and of any Rejectable Offer or Rejectable
Substitution Offer, together with all items required to be delivered in
connection therewith and together with copies of all items required to be
delivered pursuant to Sections 3.3 and 3.4.

        3.4      Substitution.

        (a)      In the event that Tenant has made (and Landlord has accepted or
is deemed to have accepted) a Rejectable Substitution Offer, as outlined in
Section 3.3, Tenant shall replace, on the Lease Termination Date (a
"Substitution"), the affected Project (the "Replaced Project") with a Substitute
Project upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 3.4, and
upon delivery to Landlord, if applicable, (with a copy to any assignee of this
Lease, including Lender) of a certificate from a Responsible Officer of Tenant
setting forth the determination of Tenant as outlined in Section 3.3.
"Substitute Project" means a property which (i) has a Fair Market Value (as
hereinafter defined) at least equal to the greater of that of the Replaced
Project as of the date of the Substitution or as of the date of this Lease, (ii)
the Improvements constituting a part of such Substitute Project have a remaining
useful life and residual value substantially equivalent to, or better than, that
of the Improvements constituting a part of the Replaced Project, (iii) is
located in (A) the same state as the Replaced Project or (B) in another state
acceptable to Landlord in Landlord's reasonable discretion (it being understood
that Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any state in which
another Project is located, provided that Tenant shall pay any increased costs
by reason of a Substitution in another jurisdiction) and (iv) is located in a
market with similar characteristics and demographics as the Replaced Project. In
the case of a Substitution as a result of a Major Casualty or Major
Condemnation, the Fair Market Value of the Replaced Project and the remaining
useful life and residual value of the Improvements constituting a part thereof
shall be determined as of the date which is immediately prior to such Major
Condemnation or Major Casualty (including, if construction is anticipated or
being accomplished at such time with respect to such Replaced Project, the
appraised value of the completed Project assuming that Completion of the Project
has occurred). In the case of a Substitution as a result of a Project becoming
Economically Obsolete, the Fair Market Value of the Replaced Project shall be
equal to the appraised value as of the date hereof (including, if construction
(including, without limitation, any renovation required under Section 9.1) is
anticipated or being accomplished at such time with respect to such Replaced
Project, the appraised value of the completed Project assuming that Completion
of the Project has occurred). In the case of a Substitution pursuant to Section
3.3(c), the Fair Market Value of the Replaced Project shall be determined as of
the date of Substitution (including, if construction (including, without
limitation, any renovation required under Section 9.1) is anticipated or being
accomplished at such time with respect to such Replaced Project, the appraised
value of the completed Project assuming that Completion of the Project has
occurred). Fee simple title to the Substitute Project must be conveyed to
Landlord and Landlord will not accept a ground lease. At the time of
substitution, a Substitute Project must be an operating Project which Tenant
intends to continue to operate pursuant to and in accordance with Section 1.2
hereof.

        (b)      Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, in the event
that Tenant has made (and Landlord has previously approved the Substitution
Documents and has accepted or is deemed to have accepted) a Rejectable
Substitution Offer with respect to a Project arising as a result of a Major
Condemnation or Major Casualty, but Tenant fails to meet the conditions of
Substitution set forth in Section 3.4(d) on or before the applicable Lease
Termination Date, Tenant shall not be allowed to make such Substitution. In such
event, this Lease shall continue


                                       30
<PAGE>


in full force and effect, Tenant shall be deemed to have made a Rejectable Offer
on the initially-scheduled Lease Termination Date, and Landlord shall either
accept or reject such deemed Rejectable Offer no later than sixty (60) days
after the initially-scheduled Lease Termination Date. A failure by Landlord to
either accept or reject such deemed Rejectable Offer shall be deemed acceptance.
The Lease Termination Date in such event shall be the first Payment Date
occurring not less than thirty (30) days after acceptance or rejection of such
deemed Rejectable Offer. In the event that Tenant has made (and Landlord has
previously approved the Substitution Documents) any other Rejectable
Substitution Offer pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, but Tenant fails to
meet the conditions of Substitution set forth in Section 3.4(d) on or before the
applicable Lease Termination Date, Tenant shall not be allowed to make such
Substitution. In such event, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect
with respect to the applicable Project.

        (c)      The term "Fair Market Value" shall mean the value of a fee
simple interest in the applicable Replaced Project or Substitute Project,
unencumbered by this Lease and any Indenture (and in at least the condition
required to be maintained pursuant to this Lease) and determined at the time in
question. If Landlord is in agreement with the appraisals delivered by Tenant as
a part of the Substitution Documents (which appraisals shall be by appraisers
approved in advance by Landlord and Lender and, at the request of Landlord,
shall provide that the party or parties engaging such appraiser shall be the
Landlord or the Lender or both), such appraisals shall be utilized to determine
Fair Market Value. If Landlord gives Tenant written notice of its disapproval of
an appraisal delivered by Tenant (to be delivered by Landlord within the thirty
(30) day period referred to in the second line of Section 3.3(d) above), Fair
Market Value shall be determined using Landlord's and Lender's respective
standard valuation methods. Any such determination shall be prepared by a
qualified, independent MAI appraiser who is both a member of the American
Institute of Appraisers and actively engaged in the appraisal of real property
in the area where such property is located. Any appraisal delivered by Tenant in
connection with this Article 3 shall be dated no more than 120 days prior to the
proposed initial Lease Termination Date and shall expressly provide that each of
Landlord and Lender shall be entitled to rely thereon. For the purposes of this
Lease, "Approved Appraiser" shall mean an appraiser meeting the criteria set
forth above in this Section 3.4(c)(i) who (A) holds no interest, direct or
indirect, in the Loan or the Project being appraised and (B) whose compensation
is not affected by the value of the Project reflected in such appraisal. An
appraiser shall not, in making its appraisal of the Replaced Project and the
Substitute Project, attribute any value to any of Tenant's Personal Property.

        (d)      In the event that Tenant shall make a Rejectable Substitution
Offer in compliance with the provisions of Sections 3.3 and 3.4, and Landlord
shall have accepted (or be deemed to have accepted) such Rejectable Substitution
Offer, Tenant shall be allowed to make such Substitution, provided that all of
the following conditions precedent are satisfied in the reasonable judgment of
Landlord and, as required by the Indenture, Lender:

        (i)      there shall be no Event of Default at the time of the
                 Rejectable Substitution Offer or on the applicable Lease
                 Termination Date;


                                       31
<PAGE>


        (ii)     so long as any portion of the loan secured by the Indenture
                 (the "Loan") is outstanding, Landlord shall request promptly
                 and as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicably obtain and
                 deliver to Lender (at Tenant's expense) a written confirmation
                 from each of Standard & Poor's Rating Group, Fitch Ratings,
                 Inc. and Moody's Investors Service Inc. or any successor
                 thereto, or any other nationally recognized credit rating
                 agency(ies) which is rating securities issued in connection
                 with any securitization which includes the Loan (the "Rating
                 Agencies") that such Substitution will not result in a
                 withdrawal, downgrade or qualification of the then current
                 rating of any such securities which are in effect immediately
                 prior to the Substitution;

        (iii)    so long as any portion of the Loan is outstanding, Lender and
                 the Rating Agencies shall have received an opinion of counsel
                 which, as required by the Indenture, is acceptable to the
                 Rating Agencies, stating that any securitization vehicle formed
                 in connection with a securitization which includes the Loan
                 which has elected to be treated as a "real estate mortgage
                 investment conduit" within the meaning of Section 860D of the
                 Internal Revenue Code, as amended, ("REMIC") will not fail to
                 maintain such REMIC status as a result of such Substitution and
                 that the Substitution does not constitute a "significant
                 modification" of the Loan under Section 1001 of the Internal
                 Revenue Code, as amended, or otherwise cause a tax to be
                 imposed on a "prohibited transaction" by any securitization
                 vehicle electing to be treated as a REMIC;

        (iv)     so long as any portion of the Loan is outstanding, Landlord and
                 Lender shall have received an opinion of counsel delivered by
                 Tenant stating that the certificates, opinions and other
                 instruments which have been or are therewith delivered to and
                 deposited with Landlord and Lender or either thereof by Tenant
                 and by any Guarantor conform to the requirements of this Lease;

        (v)      Tenant shall have delivered to Landlord and Lender an appraisal
                 of the Substitute Project dated no more than one hundred twenty
                 (120) days prior to the Substitution by an appraiser which, as
                 required by the Indenture, is acceptable to the Rating
                 Agencies, indicating a Fair Market Value of the Substitute
                 Project that is equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value
                 of the Replaced Project determined in accordance with Section
                 3.4(a) of this Lease and using substantially the same
                 methodology as used in the appraisal delivered to Lender in
                 connection with the origination of the Loan;

        (vi)     Tenant shall have delivered to Landlord and Lender a current
                 as-built survey for the Substitute Project satisfying the
                 requirements set forth in Schedule H certified to the title
                 insurance company, to Landlord, and to

                 Lender and its successors and assigns, prepared by a
                 professional land surveyor licensed in the state in which the
                 Substitute Project is located which, as required by the
                 Indenture, is acceptable to the Rating Agencies and which, as
                 required by the Indenture, would be reasonably satisfactory to
                 a prudent lending institution making a loan similar to the
                 Loan. Such survey shall reflect the same legal description
                 which is included in the title insurance policy relating to
                 such Substitute Project and shall include, among other things,
                 a metes and bounds description of the real property comprising

                 affixed to such survey, such survey shall show no encroachments
                 or violations of any setback requirements and shall certify
                 that the surveyed property is not located in a

                 property is located in a "one-hundred-year flood hazard area",
                 flood insurance in an amount equal to the full Replacement Cost
                 of the Substitute Project or the maximum amount available
                 through National Flood Program or any successor program,
                 whichever is less, shall be provided if flood insurance is
                 available under the National Flood Insurance Act;

        (vii)    Tenant shall have delivered to Landlord and Lender a Phase I
                 environmental report addressed to Landlord and Lender and, if
                 as a result of such report, facts are revealed that would
                 reasonably necessitate a Phase II environmental report, a Phase
                 II environmental report addressed to Landlord and Lender, each
                 in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and
                 Lender (x) stating that the Substitute Project is in compliance
                 with Environmental Laws and that no Hazardous Substances are
                 present or have been Released or are threatened to be Released
                 at, on, under, within or emanating to or from the Substitute
                 Project, and (y) indicating that the Substitute Project is in
                 compliance with this Lease, and, as required by the Indenture,
                 is acceptable to the Rating Agencies and would be reasonably
                 satisfactory to a prudent lending institution making a loan
                 similar to the Loan;

        (viii)   Tenant shall have delivered a policy of owner's title insurance
                 from a title insurer reasonably satisfactory to Landlord
                 containing coverages which shall be equivalent to those
                 contained in the policy for the Replaced Project (except that
                 to the extent certain coverage was obtained for other Projects
                 but was unavailable or prohibitively expensive in the state
                 where the Replaced Project was located, the coverage for the
                 Substitute Project shall include such coverage) and title
                 exceptions of equivalent nature to those contained in the
                 policy for the Replaced Project (it being specifically
                 understood that the title exceptions may only include easements
                 which do not interfere with any buildings, and in no event
                 shall the title exceptions include any use or other
                 restrictions unless the same have been approved by Landlord
                 and, as required by the Indenture, Lender, in their sole

                           discretion), and a policy of lender's title insurance
                           satisfying the requirements of the Lender as set

                           valid certificates of insurance and copies of related
                           insurance policies indicating that the insurance
                           requirements set forth in this Lease have been
                           satisfied with respect to the Substitute Project and
                           evidencing the payment of all premiums payable with

                  (x)      Tenant shall have caused to be delivered to Landlord
                           and Lender annual operating and occupancy statements

                           recently completed fiscal years and a current
                           operating statement for the Substitute Project, each
                           certified by Tenant to Landlord, to Lender and their
                           respective successors and assigns as being true and
                           correct and a certificate from Tenant certifying that
                           there has been no material adverse change in the
                           financial condition of the Substitute Project since
                           the date of such operating statements;

                  (xi)     Tenant shall have delivered to Landlord and Lender a
                           physical conditions inspection report with respect to
                           the Substitute Project which is reasonably acceptable
                           to Landlord and, as required by the Indenture, which
                           is acceptable to the Rating Agencies and which would
                           be reasonably satisfactory to a prudent lending
                           institution making a loan similar to the Loan, and
                           stating that the Substitute Project and its use
                           comply in all material respects with all applicable
                           Legal Requirements (including, without limitation,
                           zoning, subdivision and building laws) and that the
                           Substitute Project is in good condition and repair
                           and free of damage and waste. If compliance with any
                           Legal Requirements is not addressed by such report,
                           compliance shall be confirmed by delivery to Landlord
                           and Lender of a certificate of an architect licensed
                           in the state in which the Substitute Project is
                           located, a letter from the municipality in which such
                           Substitute Project is located, a certificate of a
                           surveyor that is licensed in the state in which the
                           Substitute Project is located (with respect to zoning
                           and subdivision laws), an ALTA 3.1 zoning endorsement
                           to the title insurance policies delivered pursuant to
                           clause (viii) above (with respect to zoning laws) or
                           a subdivision endorsement to the title policies
                           delivered pursuant to clause (viii) above (with
                           respect to subdivision laws). If such physical
                           condition report indicates that there are any items

                           lesser period of at least four quarters as such
                           Substitute Project shall have been open for business)
                           by a percentage greater than the percentage decrease,
                           if any, in the gross sales of the Replaced Project
                           during the same period.

                  (xxvi)   Tenant shall have satisfied such other conditions
                           reasonably required by the Lender.

                  (e) Landlord shall have received an indemnity against adverse
tax consequences from the exchange in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to Landlord.

                  (f) Upon satisfaction of the conditions for Substitution set
forth above, Landlord shall, on the applicable Lease Termination Date, convey
title to the Replaced Project to Tenant subject only to the Permitted Exceptions
(which shall not include any mortgage created by Landlord) and any other liens,
charges, restrictions or encumbrances created by Tenant or any of its creditors,
employees, contractors, agents or created by Landlord pursuant to the express
terms hereof or with Tenant's consent, in exchange for the Substitute Project,
which shall be transferred to Landlord subject only to the encumbrances listed
in the title insurance policy referred to in Section 3.4(d) above.

                  (g) If a Substitute Project is substituted for a Replaced
Project, the following modifications shall be made to the Schedules: (i) the
legal description for the Substitute Project shall be substituted for the legal
description of the Replaced Project on Schedule A; (ii) the Permitted Exceptions
for the Substitute Project shall be substituted for the Permitted Exceptions of
the Replaced Project on Schedule B; (iii) Schedule C shall not be revised; (iv)
Schedule D shall not be revised; and (E) the Substitute Project shall be
substituted for the Replaced Project in Schedule F, but the numbers in Schedule
F shall not be revised.

                  (h) Upon a Substitution, the lien of any Indenture shall be
released from the Replaced Project and recorded as a lien against the Substitute
Project. In the event of such a Substitution, on the applicable Lease
Termination Date, the Net Proceeds, if any, payable in connection with the Major
Casualty or Major Condemnation (or the right to receive the same when made if
payment therefor has not yet been made) shall, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in Section 3.2, be assigned and/or turned over to the Tenant
on the closing of the title for the Substitute Project, provided that all
amounts payable to Landlord in connection with such a Substitution have been
paid.

                  3.5 Rejection of Rejectable Offer or Rejectable Substitution
Offer.

                  (a) If the Landlord rejects a Rejectable Offer with respect to
a particular Project by a written notice given to the Tenant within the time
period set forth in Section 3.3, then this Lease shall terminate on the Lease
Termination Date with respect to that Project (and the Basic Rent shall be
reduced as set forth in Section 3.1(c)) and any Net Proceeds (other than those
specifically relating to the Tenant's Personal Property), if any, payable in
connection with a Major Casualty or Major Condemnation (or the right to receive
the same when made if payment therefor has not yet been made) shall be assigned
or paid and belong to the Landlord, and, in addition, the Tenant shall pay to
the Landlord an amount equal to any deductible or self insurance amount in
effect under the policy or policies insuring the risk relating to such Major
Casualty or Major Condemnation, if any, all Basic Rent accrued as of such Lease
Termination Date and all other amounts then accrued or due and payable by the
Tenant under this Lease with respect to the applicable Project; provided that
Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord or Lender for any Make Whole Premium.
During such time as an Indenture encumbers a particular Project, no rejection of
a Rejectable Offer with respect to that Project shall be effective unless
countersigned by the Lender.

                  (b) If the Landlord rejects a Rejectable Substitution Offer
with respect to a particular Project by a written notice given to the Tenant
within the time period set forth in Section 3.3(a), (b) or (c) then this Lease
shall terminate on the Lease Termination Date with respect to that Project (and
the Basic Rent shall be reduced as set forth in Section 3.1(c)) and any Net
Proceeds (other than those specifically relating to the Tenant's Personal
Property), if any, payable in connection with a Major Casualty or Major
Condemnation (or the right to receive the same when made if payment therefor has
not yet been made) shall be assigned or paid and belong to the Landlord, and, in
addition, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord all Basic Rent accrued as of such
Lease Termination Date and all other amounts then accrued or due and payable by
the Tenant under this Lease with respect to the applicable Project; provided
that


                                       39
<PAGE>


Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord or Lender for any Make Whole
Premium. During such time as an Indenture encumbers a particular Project, no
rejection of a Rejectable Substitution Offer with respect to that Project shall
be effective unless countersigned by the Lender. It is specifically understood
that a failure to meet the conditions for Substitution set forth in Section 3.4
is not a rejection of a Rejectable Substitution Offer, but such failure shall be
handled in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4(b).

                  3.6 Less than Major Condemnation or Casualty.(a) If, after a
Condemnation or Casualty, Tenant is not permitted to give or, if permitted, does
not give notice of its intention to terminate this Lease with respect to a
particular Project as provided in Section 3.2 (and is not required to give such
notice pursuant to Section 3.2), then this Lease shall continue in full force
and effect and Tenant shall, at its expense, promptly rebuild, replace or repair
the Premises in conformity with the requirements of Sections 2.5 and 3.8 so as
to restore the applicable Project (in the case of Condemnation, as nearly as
practicable) to the condition and fair market value thereof immediately prior to
such occurrence (or if the Project was under renovation at such time, to the
condition and fair market value thereof at the time of completion of
renovation). Prior to any such rebuilding, replacement or repair, Tenant shall
deliver its reasonable estimate of the cost thereof, which shall be subject to
the approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld (the
cost approved by Landlord is referred to as the "Restoration Cost").

                  (b) If the repair constitutes a Material Alteration, the
Restoration Cost must be confirmed by an architect reasonably acceptable to
Landlord (an "Architect"), and if the Restoration Cost is more than the amount
of Net Proceeds, the Tenant shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Landlord
or, if required by the Indenture, Lender (i) cash collateral in an amount equal
to such excess, or (ii) if acceptable to Lender, an unconditional, irrevocable,
clean sight draft letter of credit, in form and substance, and issued by a bank,
acceptable to Landlord and Lender, in their respective reasonable discretion, in
the amount of such excess, or (iii) evidence acceptable to Landlord and, if
required by the Indenture, Lender, that the excess has been expended in
performing the restoration work prior to any funds being drawn from the Net
Proceeds.

                  (c) The Restoration Cost shall be paid first out of Tenant's
own funds to the extent that the Restoration Cost exceeds the Net Proceeds
payable in connection with such occurrence, after which expenditure Tenant shall
be entitled to receive the Net Proceeds, which shall be disbursed from time to
time upon Landlord, and if required by the Indenture, Lender being furnished
with (i) evidence satisfactory to Landlord of the estimated Restoration Cost,
(ii) a fixed price or guaranteed maximum cost construction contract for
restoration satisfactory to Landlord, (iii) prior to the commencement of
restoration, all immediately available funds in addition to the Net Proceeds
that in Landlord's judgment are required to complete the proposed restoration,
(iv) such architect's certificates, waivers of lien, contractor's sworn
statements, title insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey, permits,
approvals, licenses and such other documents and items as Landlord may
reasonably require and approve in Landlord's discretion, and (iv) all plans and
specifications for such restoration, such plans and specifications to be
approved by Landlord prior to commencement of any work. Landlord may, at
Tenant's expense,


                                       40
<PAGE>


retain or, if required by the Indenture, permit Lender to retain, a consultant
to review and approve all requests for disbursements, which approval shall also
be a condition precedent to any disbursement. No payment made prior to the final
completion of the restoration shall exceed 90% of the value of the work
performed from time to time; funds other than the Net Proceeds shall be
disbursed prior to disbursement of such Net Proceeds; and at all times, the
undisbursed balance of such Net Proceeds remaining in the hands of Landlord, or
if required by the Indenture, Lender, together with funds deposited for that
purpose or irrevocably committed to the satisfaction of Landlord by or on behalf
of Tenant for that purpose, shall be at least sufficient in the reasonable
judgment of Landlord to pay for the cost of completion of the restoration, free
and clear of all liens or claims for lien.

                  (d) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.1, the Basic
Rent and the Additional Rent payable under the provisions of this Lease shall
not be affected, altered or reduced by any Casualty or Condemnation (except as
specifically set forth in Section 3.1 with respect to a termination of the Lease
upon payment of the amounts required therein), and Tenant's obligation to
continue to pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall continue notwithstanding
any such Condemnation or Casualty.

                  (e) [Intentionally deleted.]

                  (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, if
either Tenant or a Guarantor is then currently maintaining an Acceptable Credit
Rating and in Tenant's reasonable judgment the cost of the Work (as hereinafter
defined) is less than $100,000 with respect to any one casualty or partial
condemnation (and the cost of all outstanding Work for all Projects is less than
$250,000), such Work can be completed in less than one hundred twenty (120) days
(subject to Force Majeure) and no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and if allowed pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture, then
Landlord, upon request by Tenant, shall permit Tenant to apply for and receive
the Net Proceeds directly from the insurer or payor thereof (and Landlord shall
advise such insurer or payor and Lender to pay over such Net Proceeds directly
to Tenant), provided that Tenant shall promptly and diligently commence and
complete such Work in a good and workmanlike manner.

                  (g) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or if Tenant (i) shall fail to submit to Landlord for approval plans
and specifications (if required pursuant to Section 3.6(b) hereof) for the Work
(approved by the Architect and by all governmental authorities whose approval is
required), (ii) after any such plans and specifications are approved by all such
governmental authorities, the Architect, Landlord and Lender, shall fail to
commence promptly such Work, (iii) after Lender or Landlord has released the Net
Proceeds to the extent provided for under this Lease, shall fail to diligently
prosecute such Work to completion, or (iv) materially fail in any other respect
to comply with the Work obligations under this Section 3.6, then in addition to
all other rights available under this Lease, at law or in equity, Landlord or
Lender, or any receiver of the applicable Project or any portion thereof, upon
fifteen (15) days' prior written notice to Tenant (except in the event of
emergency in which case no notice shall be required), may (but shall have no
obligation to) perform or cause to be performed such Work, and may take such
other steps as either Landlord or Lender deems advisable (but such


                                       41
<PAGE>


performance shall not cure the default of Tenant). In addition, Tenant
acknowledges that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Lender may apply any Net Proceeds towards payment of the Indenture, which
payment shall not relieve Tenant of any of its obligations under this Lease.
Tenant hereby waives, for Tenant and all others holding under or through Tenant,
any claim, other than for gross negligence or willful misconduct (subject to the
provisions of Section 10.17(b)), against Landlord and Lender and any receiver
arising out of any act or omission of Landlord or Lender or such receiver
pursuant hereto, and Landlord or Lender may apply all or any portion of the Net
Proceeds (without the need to fulfill any other requirements forth in this
Section 3.6) to reimburse Landlord or Lender or such receiver, for all amounts
incurred in connection with the Work, and any costs not reimbursed to such
parties shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord (or such other party) on demand,
together with interest thereon at the Rate from the date such amounts are
advanced until the same are paid by Tenant.

                  3.7 Insurance.

                           similar apparatus located on the Projects for risks
                           normally insured against under boiler and machinery

                           performed is $500,000 or more, $10,000,000.

                  (b) (i) All such insurance shall be issued by companies
authorized to transact business in the state in which the applicable Project is
located and having an Alfred M. Best Company rating of "A" or better and
financial size category of not less than IX, and a Standard & Poor's rating of
"BBB" or better as to claims paying ability; provided, however, that if the
company providing the primary coverage is so rated, the company providing a
layer of excess coverage may have an Alfred M. Best Company rating of "A-" or
better. No liability insurance policy maintained by Tenant shall provide for a
deductible or self-insured retention in excess of $100,000, except to the extent
applicable law shall require that the insurance carrier shall be responsible for
payment with respect to all claims covered (including amounts payable under the
deductible), such policy shall reflect such obligation and the full amount of
any deductible shall be collateralized by a letter of credit, the beneficiary of
which is such insurance carrier. No casualty or other insurance policy
maintained by Tenant (other than liability policies) shall provide for a
deductible or self-insured retention in excess of (A) the greater of $250,000 or
5% of replacement value per location for windstorm damage at coastal Properties
or (B) $100,000 per occurrence for all other covered perils, other than for
flood.

                  (ii) Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section
3.7(b), at any time that the Tenant shall maintain a Credit Rating of BBB from
Standard and Poors' Rating Group and Baa2 from Moody's Investors Service Inc.,
or higher, Tenant shall be entitled to have deductibles or self-insured
retentions described in the last sentence of Section 3.7(b)(i) so long as such
risks retained do not exceed with respect to clause (A) of such Section 10% of
replacement value per location and with respect to clause (B) of such Section
$500,000. In addition, if Tenant shall have one or more blanket insurance
policies with respect to the matters described in Section 3.7(a), such policies
may have higher deductibles or self-insured retention than permitted by Section
3.7(b), but not in excess of $500,000, if the Tenant shall have posted for the
benefit of the Landlord and Lender a Letter of Credit in the amount of the
difference between (x) the deductible or self-insured retention provided in such
policy and (y) the deductible or self-insured retention permitted by Section
3.7(b). Such Letter of Credit, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, may be
issued by Bank of America, Citibank,


                                       44

JPMorgan Chase or Wachovia so long as the long term unsecured debt obligations
of such bank are rated at least "A" by Standard & Poor's Rating Group.

                  (c) Every such policy (other than any general public
liability, auto liability or worker's compensation policy) shall bear a
mortgagee's loss payable clause or a mortgagee endorsement in favor of the
mortgagee or beneficiary (whether one or more, and together with its or their
successors and assigns, the "Lender") under each mortgage, deed of trust or
similar security instrument creating a lien on the interests of Landlord in the
Premises (whether one or more, the "Indenture"), and any loss under any such
policy shall be payable to the Lender which has a first lien on such interests
(if there is more than one first Lender, then to the trustee for such Lenders)
to be held and applied pursuant to this Article 3.

                  (d) All such insurance (other than any worker's compensation
policy) shall be endorsed to provide that:

                  (i)      such insurance will not be canceled or amended except
                           after thirty (30) days' written notice to Landlord
                           and Lender and that it shall not be invalidated by
                           any act or negligence of Landlord, Tenant or any
                           person or entity having an interest in the Premises,
                           nor by occupancy or use of the applicable Projects
                           for purposes more hazardous than permitted by such
                           policy, nor by any foreclosure or other proceedings
                           relating to a Project, nor by change in title to or
                           ownership of a Project;

                  (ii)     Landlord and Lender are each an additional insured
                           with the understanding that any obligation imposed
                           upon the insured (including, without limitation, the
                           liability to pay premiums, but excluding any
                           obligation of the insured to cooperate with any
                           insurer or any insurer's representative in the
                           investigation, defense or settlement of any claim
                           covered under such insurance) shall be the sole
                           obligation of Tenant and not that of any other
                           insured;

                  (iii)    all insurance proceeds payable under any policy of
                           property, sprinkler or flood insurance with respect
                           to the Premises shall be paid to Lender (or if no
                           Lender exists, to Landlord);

                  (iv)     the interests of the Lender shall not be invalidated
                           by any action or inaction of the Landlord, Tenant or
                           any other person, and such insurance shall insure the
                           Lender regardless of any breach or violation by the
                           Tenant, the Landlord or any other person of any
                           warranties, declarations or conditions contained in
                           the policies relating to such insurance or
                           application therefor;

                  (v)      the interests of Landlord shall not be invalidated by
                           any action or inaction of the Tenant or any other
                           person, and such insurance shall insure the Landlord
                           regardless of any breach or violation by the Tenant
                           or any other


                                       45
<PAGE>


                           person of any warranties, declarations or conditions
                           contained in the policies relating to such insurance
                           or application therefor;

                  (vi)     the insurer thereunder waives all rights of
                           subrogation against the Lender and Landlord and
                           waives any right of set-off and counterclaim and any
                           other right of deduction, whether by attachment or
                           otherwise;

                  (vii)    such insurance shall be primary to Tenant without
                           right of contribution from any other insurance
                           carried by or on behalf of Tenant with respect to
                           Tenant's operation only or Landlord or the Lender or
                           any other person with respect to its interest in a
                           Project;

                  (viii)   all terms, conditions, insuring agreements and
                           endorsements, with the exception of limits of
                           liability, shall operate in the same manner as if
                           there were a separate policy covering each insured.

                  (e) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord and Lender originals of
the applicable insurance policies (without any necessity for request) or binding
certificates evidencing renewal and original or duplicate certificates of
insurance (without any necessity for request), satisfactory to and permitting
reliance thereon by Landlord and Lender, evidencing the existence of all
insurance which is required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease, such
delivery to be made (i) upon the execution and delivery hereof and (ii) at least
thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any such insurance. In the event of
any transfer by Landlord of its interest in the Premises or any financing or
refinancing of Landlord's interest in any Project, Tenant shall, upon not less
than ten (10) days' prior written notice, deliver to Landlord or any Lender
providing such financing or refinancing, as the case may be, certificates of all
insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease naming such
transferee or such Lender, as the case may be, as an additional named insured to
the extent required herein effective as of the date of such transfer, financing
or refinancing. Tenant shall not obtain or carry separate insurance concurrent
in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required by this Section
3.7 unless Landlord is additionally named insured therein and unless there is a
Lender endorsement in favor of Lender with loss payable as provided herein.
Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord whenever any such separate insurance is
obtained and shall deliver to Landlord and Lender the policies or certificates
evidencing the same. Any insurance required under this Lease may be provided
under blanket policies provided that the Premises and the applicable coverage
applicable thereto are specified therein.

                  (f) Any loss under any property damage insurance required to
be maintained by Tenant shall be adjusted by Landlord and Tenant pursuant to the
provisions of Section 3.2(a), provided, that if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Landlord shall have the sole right to make such
adjustment and collection, but Tenant shall be entitled to any proceeds relating
to Tenant's Personal Property (subject to Landlord's right to offset any amounts
owed to Landlord under this Lease).

                  (g)      If Tenant fails to maintain and deliver to Landlord
the original policies and certificates of insurance required by this Lease,
Landlord may, at its option, procure such


                                       46
<PAGE>


insurance, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord in the amount of all such
premiums thereon promptly, upon demand by Landlord, with interest thereon at the
Rate from the date paid by Landlord to the date of repayment; provided, however,
that this sentence shall not prevent any default under this Section 3.7 from
becoming an Event of Default.

                  (h) (1) If required by Landlord, Tenant agrees that it shall
deposit with Landlord, or, if directed by Landlord, to Lender (or its designee)
(Landlord hereby irrevocably directs Tenant to make such deposits with Lender as
long as the Indenture shall remain outstanding, and Tenant hereby grants a
security interest in such account to Landlord and consents to the pledge of and
the granting of a security interest in such account by Landlord to Lender) on
each Payment Date, as Additional Rent, one twelfth (1/12) of the estimated
insurance premiums necessary to pay for renewal of all insurance required to be
maintained by Tenant hereunder (collectively, the "Estimated Premiums") at least
thirty (30) days prior to expiration of any policy as reasonably estimated by
Landlord. To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither Landlord nor Lender
or its designee, as Depository, shall be required to maintain the Estimated
Premiums in an account separate from other funds of such party or to deposit any
such amounts in an interest-bearing account. Tenant shall deposit with
Depository, prior to the date which is thirty (30) days prior to the due date of
insurance premiums, such additional amount as may be necessary to provide
Depository with sufficient funds in such deposit account to pay each such
insurance premium at least thirty (30) days in advance of the due date thereof.
Depository shall apply the aforesaid deposits and interest, if any, thereon for
such purpose not later than the last day on which any such insurance premiums
are due or disburse or cause Depository to disburse them to Tenant upon
presentation of evidence of payment and a certificate of an officer of Tenant in
form and substance satisfactory to Landlord. If, at any time, the amount of any
insurance premiums are increased or Landlord or Lender receives information that
such insurance premiums will be increased, or if Landlord shall determine in its
reasonable judgement that the amounts of such deposit will be insufficient for
the payments due, and if the monthly deposits then being made by Tenant for this
purpose (if continued) would not make up a fund sufficient to pay such insurance
premiums thirty (30) days prior to the due date, said monthly deposits thereupon
shall be increased and Tenant immediately shall deposit with the Depository, on
demand, sufficient moneys so that the moneys then on hand for the payment of
said insurance premiums, plus the increased payments and such additional sums
demanded, shall be sufficient so that the Depository shall have received from
Tenant adequate amounts to pay such insurance premiums at least thirty (30) days
before such insurance premiums become due and payable. In the event the amount
of the funds deposited by Tenant exceeds the amount necessary to fully fund the
Estimated Premiums, then Landlord shall decrease the amount required for
subsequent deposits under this Section 3.7(h). For purposes of determining
whether the Depository has on hand sufficient moneys to pay any particular
insurance premium at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date therefor,
deposits for each category of insurance premium shall be treated separately, it
being the intention that the Depository shall not be obligated to use moneys
deposited for the payment of an item not yet due and payable to the payment of
an item that is due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood
and agreed that (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law, deposits provided
for hereunder may be held by the Depository in a single bank account and
commingled with other funds of the Depository, and (ii) the Depository may, if
Tenant fails to make any deposit required hereunder, apply deposits made


                                       47
<PAGE>


for any one insurance premium for the payment of the same, any other insurance
premium or any outstanding Basic Rent or Additional Rent. If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing under this Lease, all deposits then held
by the Depository shall be applied on account of any and all sums due under this
Lease and Tenant shall forthwith pay the resulting deficiency in accordance with
the terms hereof. If Landlord ceases to have any interest in any Project,
Landlord shall direct the Depository to transfer to the person or entity who
owns or acquires such interest in such Project and is the transferee of the
Landlord's interest in this Lease, the deposits made pursuant to the provisions
hereof. In addition, in the event that Lender (or a servicing agent on Lender's
behalf) is the Depository, Lender shall have the right to transfer the deposits
(or to cause its servicing agent to transfer such deposits) to any transferee of
the Indenture or to the holder of any substitute Indenture. Upon any such
transfer of the deposits, after acknowledgement of such transfer by the
transferee and notice thereof to Tenant, the transferor shall be deemed to be
released from all liability with respect thereto and Tenant agrees to look to
the transferee solely with respect thereto, and the provisions hereof shall
apply to each successive transfer of the said deposits. Tenant shall be deemed
the owner of such deposits and shall pay any taxes associated therewith.

                  (2) Tenant shall not be required to make the deposits required
by Section 3.7(h) so long as (i) Tenant shall pay all insurance premiums as the
same become due and payable before delinquency, (ii) Tenant shall, upon request,
furnish to Landlord receipts for payment of all insurance premiums or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, (iii) no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iv) Tenant has a Net Worth in
excess of $100,000,000 and (v) Tenant is maintaining a Rent Coverage Ratio with
respect to all Projects of at least 1.25:1. Tenant's obligation to make the
deposits required by Section 3.7(h) shall immediately resume and shall continue
(x) in the event of the failure of any condition set forth in clauses (i), (ii)
or (iii) above, until the termination or earlier expiration of this Lease, (y)
in the event of the failure of the condition set forth in clause (iv) above,
until such time as Tenant's Net Worth shall be equal to or greater than
$150,000,000 and (z) in the event of the failure of the condition set forth in
clause (v) above, until such time as Tenant's Rent Coverage Ratio with respect
to all Projects is equal to or greater than 1.5:1.

                  (i) Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.7(h) to the
contrary, Landlord shall waive the requirements of Section 3.7(h) so long as (i)
no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) Tenant shall
have paid all premiums or Estimated Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to
the expiration date of any applicable policy and shall have supplied Landlord
and Lender, in accordance with Section 3.7(e), evidence of such payment.

                  (j) The requirements of this Section 3.7 shall not be
construed to negate or modify Tenant's obligations under Section 2.4.

                  3.8 Alterations.

                  (a) Tenant may, at its expense, make additions to and
alterations of the Improvements, and construct additional Improvements
(collectively, "Alterations"), provided that (1) the fair market value, residual
value, utility and useful life of the applicable Project shall


                                       48
<PAGE>


not be reduced or lessened other than to a de minimis extent thereby or cause
the Project to be characterized as "limited-use property," as defined in Rev.
Proc. 2001-28, (2) such Alterations shall be expeditiously completed in a good
and workmanlike manner, free and clear of liens and encumbrances, and in
compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements and the requirements of all
insurance policies required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease, (3)
Tenant shall not make any Alterations in violation of the terms of any
restriction, easement, condition, covenant or other matter affecting title to or
use of a Project and (4) no Material Alterations (as hereinafter defined), shall
be made unless Landlord's prior written consent shall have been obtained, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, unless an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing in which case such
consent may be withheld by Landlord in its sole discretion. "Material
Alteration" is defined as either (A) Structural Work (as hereinafter defined),
or (B) a demolition of any material portion of the Improvements, or (C)
Alterations which would materially and adversely affect the building systems or
equipment, or (D) Work which involves the construction of a shared common or
party wall on a property line which separates a Project from adjacent land, or
(E) Work for which the Estimated Cost is in excess of $150,000 at any one time
for any particular Project or which would cause Work then being conducted for
all Projects to exceed $500,000 at any one time, excluding, for purposes of this
clause (E) only, such other Work effected pursuant to standard renovation plans
that have previously been approved by Landlord, and as required by the
Indenture, Lender (it being understood that any request for such approval shall
not be considered unless each of Landlord and Lender has received detailed plans
and specifications, and other information with respect to the proposed
renovations as may be reasonably requested). "Structural Work" is defined as
Work which involves in any material respect any roof, load-bearing wall,
structural beams, columns, supports, foundation or any other structural element
of the Premises. "Estimated Cost" is defined as the estimated cost of materials,
construction and labor (including architects, engineers or other professionals),
as estimated by a licensed Architect (or if not required to be estimated by an
Architect, as reasonably estimated by Tenant), which estimate together with a
complete description of the Work and all related work shall be delivered to, and
such estimate and description reasonably approved by, Landlord and, as required
by the Indenture, Lender, before the commencement of any Work. In addition to
the limitations set forth in (1) through (4) above, Tenant agrees that all
Alterations, Material Alterations, Structural Work, restoration, repair and any
other work which Tenant shall be required or permitted to do under the
provisions of this Lease (hereinafter collectively called the "Work") shall be
performed in each case subject to the following:

                  (i)      Tenant shall not perform any Work which shall have a
                           material adverse effect on the use or operation of
                           any Project, as operated by Tenant as of the date
                           hereof (except such adverse effect as shall occur
                           during the period of time needed to complete the
                           Work). Any Work when completed shall be of such a
                           character as not to materially reduce the value or
                           could reasonably be anticipated to materially reduce
                           net operating income of the affected Project below
                           its value immediately prior to the commencement of
                           such Work or damage to such Project necessitating
                           such Work or change.


                                       49
<PAGE>


                  (ii)     Except with respect to adverse effects occurring
                           during the period of time needed to complete the
                           applicable Work, no Work shall be performed by Tenant
                           if the same would materially reduce the usable square
                           footage of the applicable Project, or would
                           materially weaken, temporarily or permanently, the
                           structure of the applicable Project or any part
                           thereof, or reduce the permitted uses thereof under
                           applicable zoning laws or impair other amenities of
                           such Project.

                  (iii)    No Material Alterations shall be commenced until
                           plans and specifications (including layout,
                           architectural, mechanical and structural drawings,
                           where appropriate), prepared by an Architect shall
                           have been submitted to and approved by Landlord (such
                           approval not to be unreasonably withheld and such
                           approval to be deemed denied if Landlord has not
                           responded within 30 days of submission), and no such
                           Work shall be undertaken except under the supervision
                           of the Architect.

                  (iv)     The reasonable cost and expense paid to third parties
                           (including Landlord's asset manager or, as required
                           by the Indenture, any servicer retained by Lender) of
                           Landlord's and Lender's respective (A) review of any
                           plans and specifications required to be furnished
                           pursuant to this Lease and (B) reasonable
                           review/supervision of any such Work shall be paid by
                           Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days after demand.

                  (v)      All Work shall be commenced only after all required
                           municipal and other governmental permits,
                           authorizations and approvals shall have been obtained
                           by Tenant, at its own cost and expense, and copies
                           thereof delivered to Landlord. Landlord will, on
                           Tenant's written request, promptly execute any
                           documents necessary to be signed by Landlord to
                           obtain any such permits, authorizations and
                           approvals, provided that Tenant shall bear any
                           expense or liability of Landlord in connection
                           therewith; provided, however, that none of the
                           foregoing shall, in any manner, result in a change in
                           zoning or otherwise have a material adverse affect on
                           the ability to use such Project as currently operated
                           by Tenant.

                           it shall not be commenced until Tenant shall have
                           obtained and delivered to Landlord, and as required

                           all of the Projects does not exceed $500,000, then
                           Tenant shall not be required to comply with this
                           subsection (vi).

                  (vii)    All Work shall be performed in a good and workmanlike
                           manner, and in accordance with all Legal
                           Requirements, as well as any plans and specifications
                           therefor which shall have been approved by Landlord.
                           All Work shall be commenced and completed in a
                           commercially reasonable manner.

                           shall at all times be free from (A) liens for labor
                           or materials supplied or claimed to have been
                           supplied to any Project or Tenant, and (B) chattel

                           not being performed in accordance with the provisions

                           failure and shall replace any unsound or improper
                           materials or workmanship. Anything contained herein
                           to the contrary notwithstanding, any different
                           procedure for the performance of Work which may be
                           required under any Indenture shall take precedence
                           over and be in addition to the procedures provided
                           for in this Lease.

                  (xi)     Except as may be expressly provided to the contrary

                                    shall remain upon and be surrendered with
                                    the Premises unless Landlord, by notice to
                                    Tenant no later than ninety (90) days prior
                                    to the date the lease Term expires as set
                                    forth on Schedule C hereto (such date, the
                                    "Expiration Date"), elects to have the same
                                    removed or demolished by Tenant, in which
                                    event, the same shall be removed from the
                                    Project by Tenant prior to the termination
                                    of this Lease, at Tenant's expense. Tenant
                                    may expressly request in Tenant's written
                                    request for consent that Landlord determine
                                    its election prior to installation (which
                                    written request shall include the estimated
                                    cost of removal and restoration). Tenant
                                    shall immediately repair any damage to any
                                    Project caused by its removal of any of the
                                    Severable Alterations or Tenant's Personal
                                    Property or Alterations which remain the
                                    property of Tenant pursuant to the terms of
                                    this Section. All property permitted or
                                    required to be removed by Tenant at the end
                                    of the Term remaining in any Project after
                                    Tenant's removal shall be deemed abandoned
                                    and may, at the election of Landlord, either
                                    be retained as Landlord's property or may be
                                    removed from such Project by Landlord at
                                    Tenant's expense. The provisions of this
                                    Section shall survive the expiration or
                                    earlier termination of the Term.

                  (b) Tenant may, at its cost and expense, install, or place
upon or reinstall, or replace and remove from any Project any Tenant's Personal
Property. Subject to and conditioned upon compliance with the provisions of
Section 3.8(a) above, Tenant may make Alterations or undertake construction
which requires sharing the use of existing facilities and utilities, provided
that reciprocal easement agreements and joint use agreements allocate ownership,
use and expenses to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, and provided that
the same comply with the provisions of Section 3.10. No such construction shall
impair the structural and functional integrity of any Project as an independent
commercial property, in compliance with Legal Requirements, at the time the
Alterations are made or at the end of the Term of this Lease.

                  3.9 Severable Alterations. Alterations that (1) are readily
removable without causing damage to a Project by more than a minimal extent, (2)
will not reduce the value, useful life or utility of the applicable Project
other than to a de minimis extent if removed, and (3) are not required for the
lawful occupancy of the applicable Project are sometimes referred to herein as
"Severable Alterations". Title to Severable Alterations will remain in Tenant
and shall be treated for purposes of this Lease as Tenant's Personal Property
unless the cost thereof shall have been paid or financed by Landlord. If Tenant
does not purchase the applicable Project upon termination of this Lease with
respect to such Project, Landlord shall have the right to purchase any or all
such Severable Alterations for fair market value at the termination of this
Lease, such fair market value to be determined by following the appraisal
procedure set forth in Section 3.4(c)(i). It is specifically understood that the
F&E shall not, in any event, be considered to be Severable Alterations.

                  3.10 Easements.

                  (a) Landlord agrees from time to time during the Term of this
Lease, at the request of Tenant, without additional consideration (1) to sell,
assign, convey, or otherwise transfer an interest in any Project of a nature
described in this Section 3.10 to any Person legally empowered to take such
interest under the power of eminent domain which Person has indicated that it
intends to so do, (2) to grant easements, licenses, rights of way and other
rights and privileges in the nature of easements, of such nature, extent and
duration as Tenant may reasonably request, provided that such easements,
licenses, rights of way and other rights and privileges are customarily granted
by prudent operators, managers or owners of properties similar to the Projects;
(3) to release or relocate existing easements and appurtenances which are for
the benefit of any Project; (4) to dedicate or transfer unimproved portions of a
Project for road, highway or other public purposes; (5) to execute petitions to
have a Project annexed to any municipal corporation or utility district; (6) to
execute amendments to any covenants and restrictions affecting a Project; and
(7) to execute and deliver any instrument necessary or appropriate to confirm or
effect such grants, releases, dedication, transfer, petition or amendment to any
person in each of the foregoing instances, the same to be without consideration,
but only if, in each of the foregoing instances (i) such grant, release,
dedication, transfer, petition or amendment is not detrimental to the proper
conduct of business of Tenant on the applicable Project, (ii) such grant,
release, dedication, transfer, petition or amendment does not materially impair
the effective use of the Project for its intended purposes or materially and
adversely affect its value, useful life or utility, (iii) Tenant reasonably
considers the consideration, if any, being paid for such grant, release,
dedication, transfer, petition or amendment to be fair and adequate, (iv) for so
long as this Lease is in effect, Tenant will perform all obligations, if any, of
Landlord under the applicable instrument, and (v) Landlord and Lender shall have
received (W) a certificate from the appropriate officer of Tenant certifying as
to the satisfaction of the conditions described in clauses (i) through (iv)
above, (X) a duly authorized undertaking of Tenant and each Guarantor, in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, to the effect that Tenant
will remain obligated under this Lease, and Guarantor will remain obligated
under its guaranty of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, to the same extent
as if such grant, release, dedication, transfer, petition amendment had not been
made, and (Y) such instruments, certificates (including evidence of authority),
surveys, title insurance policy endorsements, and



                                       53
<PAGE>
opinions of counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord, as Landlord may
reasonably request. Any easement that imposes any obligation or liability on
Landlord shall expressly provide that it is without recourse to Landlord (except
to the extent of Landlord's interest in the Project), and that any lien arising
by virtue of the nonperformance of obligations under such easement shall be
subordinate to the lien of any Indenture. As required by the Indenture, the
grant of any such easement and the taking of any other action pursuant to this
Section 3.10, shall be subject to Lender's consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of
all costs and expenses paid to third parties (including the reasonable costs and
expenses of Landlord and Lender) incurred in connection with this Section 3.10.
Subject to the provisions of Sections 3.2 and 3.6, any consideration received
for the grants, releases, dedications, transfers, petitions or amendments
outlined in this Section shall be the property of Landlord.

         (b) Without limiting the generality of any other provision of this
Lease requiring payments of Additional Rent, if any Project is presently, or
should at sometime in the future be, affected by an easement agreement, Tenant
agrees during the Term of this Lease (i) to perform all of the duties and
obligations of Landlord under such easement agreement (including, without
limitation, paying any and all costs, charges and assessments imposed
thereunder), (ii) to comply with all of the terms, conditions, covenants,
provisions, restrictions and agreements set forth in such easement agreement,
(iii) that any obligation or liability arising under any such easement agreement
shall be nonrecourse to Landlord (except to the extent of Landlord's interest in
the Project and this Lease), (iv) that any lien against the Project arising by
virtue of the nonperformance of obligations under such easement agreement shall
be subordinate to the lien of any Indenture; and (v) to indemnify, defend and
hold the Indemnified Parties harmless from and against every, any and all
demands, claims and assertions of liability, or action relating to Tenant's
failure to comply with the obligations set forth in this Section 3.10(b).
Landlord agrees that it shall not (except as may be required by any governmental
agency or in connection with any condemnation proceeding) enter into any
easement without the prior written consent of Tenant, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.

         3.11 Fixtures and Equipment. Tenant acknowledges that the F&E is the
property of Landlord and that Landlord has granted, and may hereafter grant, a
security interest therein to Lender. Tenant hereby represents and warrants to
Landlord that the F&E is free and clear of any and all liens, security interests
or other encumbrances as of the date hereof, other than the lien and security
interest of the Indenture. Tenant hereby agrees to maintain the F&E in good
condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. In no event shall any
of the Landlord's F&E be discarded or removed from a Project unless such F&E is
replaced by similar F&E with a value and utility, not less than, by more than a
de minimis amount, the value and utility of the replaced F&E.

         3.12 Right of First Offer.

         (a) If Landlord desires to sell or offer for sale all of the Premises
to any unaffiliated third party, Landlord shall first provide Tenant in writing
all of the material economic terms and conditions of the proposed sale,
including, without limitation, the price (the



                                       54
<PAGE>


"Offered Terms") and the requirements for compliance with or satisfaction of any
transfer, assignment and assumption obligations under any loan then outstanding,
and shall offer Tenant the opportunity to purchase such interest for the same
purchase price and otherwise on substantially the same terms and conditions as
such Offered Terms (other than representations and warranties that may be
offered as an inducement to certain third parties). Tenant shall have the right
to accept the Offered Terms by written notice to the Landlord given within
thirty (30) Days after Tenant's receipt of the Offered Terms; provided, however,
that the Tenant shall have satisfied any transfer, assignment and assumption
obligations and any other requirements of Landlord in connection therewith under
any loan then outstanding prior to Tenant's consummation of such purchase. If
Tenant does not accept the Offered Terms within thirty (30) Days after receipt
of the Offered Terms from the Landlord (with silence being deemed a rejection of
such offer), Tenant shall be deemed to have rejected the Offered Terms and the
Landlord may enter into a contract to sell such interest during the twelve (12)
month period beginning on the date of the expiration of the applicable period,
provided, that a sale resulting from such offer shall be consummated on
substantially the same terms as the Offered Terms (other than representations
and warranties that may be offered as an inducement to certain third parties)
(it being agreed that any sale at a price that is equal to or greater than 95%
of the purchase price contained in the Offered Terms shall be considered to be
substantially the same terms as to price). If such sale is not consummated
within such twelve (12) month period, the provisions of this Section 3.12 shall
again apply in respect of any proposed offer of any such interest in such
Project to an unaffiliated third party whether made during such twelve (12)
month period or thereafter.

         (b) Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Section
3.12, Tenant shall not have the right of first offer under Section 3.12(a) (i)
while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) following a
retention of a Project by the Landlord in connection with a rejection of a
Rejectable Offer or a Rejectable Substitution Offer; (iii) at any time after the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease; (iv) in connection with a
foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof delivered in connection with the exercise of
remedies under the Indenture; or (v) in connection with a conveyance by Lender
or its designee subsequent to a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof.

transfer effected through a Subject Transfer (as hereinafter defined); provided,
however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Tenant may assign its interest in this Lease with the prior written consent of
Landlord and Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) or pursuant
to Section 4.1(d). No assignment permitted hereunder shall (a) relieve Tenant of
any of its obligations, liabilities or duties hereunder, which shall be and
remain those of a principal and not a guarantor, (b) cause any portion of the
Premises to be tax-exempt use property within the



                                       55

(c) be to an assignee that is bankrupt or insolvent as of the effective date of
such assignment.

         (b) The Tenant may sublease all or any part of the Premises at any time
on such terms and conditions as Tenant may desire in its sole discretion,
without the consent of Landlord; provided, however, that (i) any such sublease
shall be expressly subject and subordinate to this Lease and the Indenture and
shall not release Tenant from any of its obligations or liabilities under this
Lease; (ii) no such sublease may be entered into if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing; (iii) any sublessee shall not be bankrupt or
insolvent at the inception of the sublease and shall be permitted to use the
Premises only as permitted by Section 1.2; (iv) any such sublease shall be for a
term that does not extend beyond the Primary Term or any Extended Term,
Wintergreen Extended Term or FMV Extended Term that has been irrevocably
elected; (v) the subtenant is not a tax-exempt entity within the meaning of
Section 168(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Tenant shall
supply copies of any sublease to Landlord upon request.

         (c) Landlord and Lender shall not unreasonably withhold execution and
delivery of a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in the
form attached to this Lease as Exhibit I (a "Non-Disturbance Agreement"), in
connection with a sublease by Lessee complying with Section 4.1(b), provided (i)

years, (ii) the rent payable under such sublease is equal to the greater of (A)
the fair market rental value of such Project or (B) the Basic Rent allocable to

subtenant is obligated to provide financial reporting similar to the reporting
requirements applicable to Tenant or a Guarantor hereunder and (vi) the
subtenant shall have acknowledged that neither Landlord nor Lender shall be
liable to subtenant for any act or omission of Tenant. Lessor and Lender shall
execute and deliver the Non-Disturbance Agreement with respect to such sublease
within twenty (20) Business Days after request by Tenant so long as (x) Tenant
pays all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses) in connection therewith, (y) no Event of Default has then occurred and
is continuing and (z) the Tenant shall have delivered a certificate to the
Lessor and the Lender confirming compliance with this Section 4.1.

         (d) Any Subject Transfer (as hereinafter defined) shall require the
prior written consent of each of Landlord and Lender; provided, however, that
such consent shall not be required if immediately after giving effect to the
Subject Transfer, (a) Tenant shall have a credit rating at least equal to its
credit rating on the day preceding the Subject Transfer, (b) Tenant or any
surviving or successor entity shall assume in writing the obligations under this
Lease, (c) no


                                       56
<PAGE>


Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (d) Tenant shall
have delivered a certification that all conditions set forth above in this
subparagraph (d) have been satisfied. For the purposes of this Section 4.1(d)
"Subject Transfer" shall mean the sale, assignment or other transfer, in a
single transaction or a series of related transactions, of 50.1% or more of the
outstanding common stock of Tenant (without regard to any sale, assignment, gift
or other transfer to any spouse or direct descendant of any holder of such
common stock as of the date hereof) to any "person" or "group" within the
meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.

         (e) Neither this Lease nor the Term hereby demised shall be mortgaged
or pledged by Tenant, nor shall Tenant mortgage or pledge its interest in any
sublease of any portion of the Premises or the rentals payable thereunder. Any
such mortgage or pledge, any sublease made other than as expressly permitted by
this Section 4.1, and any assignment of Tenant's interest under this Lease made
other than as expressly permitted by this Section 4.1, shall be void.

         (f) Without implying any authority of Tenant to assign this Lease or
sublet any Projects (other than as set forth herein), if this Lease is assigned
pursuant to the provisions hereof, or if any Project or any part thereof is
sublet or occupied by any person or entity other than Tenant, Landlord may,
after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, collect rent from the
assignee, subtenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the Basic
Rent and Additional Rent herein reserved, but no such assignment, subletting,
occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, or the
acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupant as Tenant, or a release of
Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of the terms, covenants, and
conditions on the part of Tenant to be observed or performed under this Lease,
and, subsequent to any assignment or subletting, Tenant's liability under this
Lease shall continue notwithstanding any subsequent modification or amendment
hereof or the release of any subsequent tenant under this Lease from any
liability, to all of which Tenant hereby consents in advance.

                                   ARTICLE 5.

         5.1 Conditional Limitations; Default Provisions.

         (a) Any of the following occurrences or acts shall constitute an "Event
of Default" under this Lease:

         (i)      if Tenant shall (1) fail to pay any Basic Rent, Additional
                  Rent or other sum as and when required to be paid by Tenant
                  under this Lease, and such failure shall continue for two (2)
                  Business Days (with respect to Basic Rent or 5 Business Days
                  (with respect to Additional Rent or any other sum) after
                  delivery of written notice from Landlord (or Lender) to Tenant
                  that such payment was not received when due, or (2) fail to
                  observe or perform any other provision of this Lease (other
                  than those referred to in clauses (vii) and (ix) of this
                  Section 5.1(a)) and such failure shall continue for thirty
                  (30) days after written notice to Tenant of such failure


                                       57
<PAGE>


                  (provided, that in the case of any such failure which is
                  capable of being cured but cannot be cured by the payment of
                  money and cannot with diligence be cured within such 30-day
                  period, if Tenant shall commence promptly to cure the same and
                  thereafter prosecute the curing thereof with diligence, the
                  time within which such failure may be cured shall be extended
                  for such period as is necessary to complete the curing thereof
                  with diligence, but in no event to exceed one hundred eighty
                  (180) days from the date of such failure; or;

         (ii)     if any representation or warranty of Tenant, Seller or
                  Guarantor set forth herein, in the Contract of Sale or in any
                  notice, certificate, demand, request or other document or
                  instrument delivered to Landlord in connection with this Lease
                  shall prove to be incorrect in any material respect as of the
                  time when the same shall have been made; or

         (iii)    if Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations under this
                  Lease (a "Guarantor") shall file a petition in bankruptcy or
                  for reorganization or for an arrangement, administration,
                  liquidation or receivership pursuant to any federal or state
                  law (or any other law governing a Guarantor), or shall be
                  adjudicated a bankrupt or become insolvent or shall make an
                  assignment for the benefit of creditors or shall admit in
                  writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they
                  become due, or if a petition or answer proposing the
                  adjudication of Tenant or a Guarantor as a bankrupt or its
                  reorganization pursuant to any federal or state bankruptcy,
                  liquidation, voluntary administration, administration,
                  receivership, moratorium or trust law or any similar federal
                  or state law shall be filed in any court and Tenant or such
                  Guarantor shall consent to or acquiesce in the filing thereof
                  or such petition or answer shall not be discharged or denied
                  within ninety (90) days after the filing thereof; or

         (iv)     if a receiver, trustee, administrator or liquidator of Tenant
                  or any Guarantor or of all or substantially all of the assets
                  of Tenant or such Guarantor or of any Project or Tenant's
                  estate therein shall be appointed in any proceeding brought by
                  Tenant or a Guarantor, or if any such receiver, trustee or
                  liquidator shall be appointed in any proceeding brought
                  against Tenant or a Guarantor and shall not be discharged
                  within ninety (90) days after such appointment, or if Tenant
                  or a Guarantor shall consent to or acquiesce in such
                  appointment; or

         (v)      if any Project shall have been left unoccupied and unattended
                  for a period of thirty (30) days (other than as permitted by
                  Section 1.2(b)); or

         (vi)     if Tenant or a Guarantor shall dissolve or otherwise fail to
                  maintain its legal existence; or



                                       58
<PAGE>


         (vii)    if Tenant shall default under Section 4.1(a), 4.1(b) or 4.1(d)
                  or Schedule K of this Lease; or

         (viii)   if any Guarantor shall default under the provisions of its
                  guaranty; or

         (ix)     if Tenant shall fail to maintain any insurance required to be
                  maintained by Tenant in accordance with the terms and
                  conditions of Section 3.7 of this Lease or the letter of even
                  date herewith from Tenant to Landlord relating to insurance;
                  or

         (x)      if Tenant shall default under Sections 7.2 and/or 7.3 of this
                  Lease.

         (xi)     Any event that but for the giving of notice or the passage of
                  time would be an Event of Default shall be a "Default."

         (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
Landlord shall be entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity.
Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to give Tenant
notice of Landlord's termination of the Term of this Lease. Upon the giving of
such notice, the Term of this Lease and the estate hereby granted shall expire
and terminate on such date as fully and completely and with the same effect as
if such date were the date herein fixed for the expiration of the Term of this
Lease, and all rights of Tenant under this Lease shall expire and terminate, but
Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.

         (c) If an Event of Default shall have happened and be continuing,
Landlord shall have the immediate right, whether or not the Term of this Lease
shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 5.1(b), to re-enter and repossess
the Premises and the right to remove all persons and property therefrom by
summary proceedings, ejectment, any other legal action or in any lawful manner
Landlord determines to be necessary or desirable, so long as Landlord is
proceeding in accordance with applicable law and, if required under applicable
law, under authority of a court of proper jurisdiction. Landlord shall be under
no liability by reason of any such re-entry, repossession or removal. No such
re-entry, repossession or removal shall be construed as an election by Landlord
to terminate this Lease unless a notice of such termination is given to Tenant
pursuant to Section 5.1(b).

         (d) At any time or from time to time after a re-entry, repossession or
removal pursuant to Section 5.1(c), whether or not the Term of this Lease shall
have been terminated pursuant to Section 5.1(b), Landlord may (but shall be
under no obligation to) relet any or all of the Projects for the account of
Tenant, in the name of Tenant or Landlord or otherwise, without notice to
Tenant, for such term or terms and on such conditions and for such uses as
Landlord, in its absolute discretion, may determine. Landlord may collect any
rents payable by reason of such reletting. Landlord shall not be liable for any
failure to relet any of the Projects or for any failure to collect any rent due
upon any such reletting.

         (e) No expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease
pursuant to Section 5.1(b), by operation of law or otherwise, and no re-entry,
repossession or removal


                                       59
<PAGE>


pursuant to Section 5.1(c) or otherwise, and no reletting of the Premises
pursuant to Section 5.1(d) or otherwise, shall relieve Tenant of its liabilities
and obligations under this Lease, all of which shall survive such expiration,
termination, re-entry, repossession, removal or reletting.

         (f) In the event of the expiration or earlier termination of the Term
of this Lease or re-entry or repossession of the Premises or removal of persons
or property therefrom by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums required to
be paid by Tenant, in each case together with interest thereon at the Rate from
the due date thereof to and including the date of such expiration, termination,
re-entry, repossession or removal; and thereafter, Tenant shall, until the end
of what would have been the Term of this Lease in the absence of such
expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession or removal and whether or not
any Projects shall have been relet, be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to
Landlord, as liquidated and agreed current damages: (i) all Basic Rent,
Additional Rent and other sums which would be payable under this Lease by Tenant
in the absence of any such expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession or
removal, less (ii) the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting effected for the
account of Tenant pursuant to Section 5.1(d), after deducting from such proceeds
all expenses of Landlord in connection with such reletting (including, without
limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, reasonable attorneys'
fees and expenses (including fees and expenses of appellate proceedings),
employees' expenses, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such
reletting). Tenant shall pay such liquidated and agreed current damages on the
dates on which Basic Rent would be payable under this Lease in the absence of
such expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession or removal, and Landlord
shall be entitled to recover the same from Tenant on each such date.

         (g) At any time after any such expiration or earlier termination of the
Term of this Lease or re-entry or repossession of the Premises or removal of
persons or property thereon by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default,
whether or not Landlord shall have previously collected any liquidated and
agreed current damages pursuant to Section 5.1(f), Landlord shall be entitled to
recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand, as and for
liquidated and agreed final damages for Tenant's default and in lieu of all
liquidated and agreed current damages beyond the date of such demand as outlined
in Section 5.1(f) above (it being agreed that it would be impracticable or
extremely difficult to fix the actual damages, and the liquidated and agreed
final damages reasonably approximate to the actual damages Landlord would
sustain on account of a Tenant Default or Event of Default, and the same are not
intended to be a penalty), an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the
aggregate of all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums which would be
payable under this Lease, in each case from the date of such demand (or, if it
be earlier, the date to which Tenant shall have satisfied in full its
obligations under Section 5.1(f) to pay liquidated and agreed current damages)
for what would be the then-unexpired Term of this Lease in the absence of such
expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession or removal, discounted at a rate
equal to the then yield on U.S. Treasury obligations of comparable maturity to
the Term (the "Treasury Rate") over (b) the then fair rental value of the
Premises for what would be such then unexpired Term of this Lease, discounted at
the Treasury Rate for the same period (such excess being hereinafter referred to
as "Liquidated Damages"). For purposes of determining value pursuant to this
Section 5.1(g), the following shall apply: (a) determinations of fair rental
value shall be made by an MAI appraiser


                                       60
<PAGE>


(engaged by Landlord) who is a member of the American Institute of Appraisers,
with copies of such determinations and supporting analysis to be provided to
Tenant; and (b) all determinations of Liquidated Damages shall be binding on
Tenant in the absence of manifest error. If any law shall limit the amount of
liquidated final damages to less than the amount above agreed upon, Landlord
shall be entitled to the maximum amount allowable under such law.

         5.2 Bankruptcy or Insolvency.

         (a) In the event that Tenant shall become a debtor in a case filed by
or against debtor under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code and Tenant's trustee or
Tenant shall elect to assume this Lease for the purpose of assigning the same or
otherwise, such election to assume may be made only if the provisions of
Sections 5.2(b) and 5.2(d) are satisfied as if the election to assume were made
in a case filed under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. If Tenant or Tenant's
trustee shall fail to elect to assume this Lease within 60 days after the entry
of the order for relief in the debtor's case or such additional time as provided
by the court within such 60-day period, this Lease shall be deemed to have been
rejected. Immediately thereupon Landlord shall be entitled to possession of the
Premises without further obligation to Tenant or Tenant's trustee and this Lease
upon the election of Landlord shall terminate, but Landlord's right to be
compensated for damages (including, without limitation, liquidated damages
pursuant to any provision hereof) or the exercise of any other remedies in any
such bankruptcy proceeding shall survive, whether or not this Lease shall be
terminated.

         (b) In the event that Tenant shall become a debtor in a case under
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, or in a case filed under Chapter 7 of the
Bankruptcy Code which is converted to Chapter 11, Tenant's trustee or Tenant, as
debtor-in-possession, as the case may be, must elect to assume this Lease within
one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the entry of the order for relief
in the debtor's case or Tenant's trustee or Tenant, as debtor-in-possession, as
the case may be, shall be deemed to have rejected this Lease. In the event that
Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as the case may be, has
failed to perform any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease within the time
periods (excluding grace periods) required for such performance, no election by
Tenant's trustee or the debtor-in-possession to assume this Lease, whether under
Chapter 7 or Chapter 11, shall be permitted or effective unless each of the
following conditions has been satisfied:

                  (1) Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as
the case may be, has cured all Events of Default under this Lease, or has
provided Landlord with Assurance (as hereinafter defined) that it will cure all
Events of Default susceptible of being cured by the payment of money within ten
(10) days from the date of such assumption and that it will cure all other
Events of Default under this Lease which are susceptible of being cured by the
performance of any act promptly after the date of such assumption.

                  (2) Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as
the case may be, has compensated Landlord, or has provided Landlord with
Assurance that within ten (10) days from the date of such assumption it will
compensate Landlord, for any actual pecuniary loss incurred by Landlord arising
from any Event of Default as indicated in any


                                       61
<PAGE>


statement of actual pecuniary loss sent by Landlord to Tenant's trustee or
Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as the case may be.

                  (3) Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as
the case may be, has provided Landlord with Assurance of future performance of
each of the obligations under this Lease, and shall also (i) deposit with
Landlord, as security for the timely payment of rent under this Lease, an amount
equal to one (1) advance installment (in addition to the installment then due as
a result of Basic Rent being payable in advance pursuant to subitem (ii) below)
of Basic Rent (at the rate then payable) which shall be applied to installments
of Basic Rent in the inverse order in which such installments shall become due
provided all the terms and provisions of this Lease shall have been complied
with, (ii) agree that from and after such date all Basic Rent shall be due and
payable in advance (rather than in arrears) on each Payment Date, and (iii) pay
in advance to Landlord on the date each installment of Basic Rent is payable a
pro rata share of Tenant's annual obligations for Additional Rent and other sums
pursuant to this Lease, such that Landlord shall hold funds sufficient to
satisfy all such obligations as they become due. The obligations imposed upon
Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as the case may be, by
this Section shall continue with respect to Tenant or any assignee of this Lease
after the conclusion of the debtor's bankruptcy case.

                  (4) The assumption of this Lease will not breach or cause a
default under any provision of any other lease, mortgage, financing arrangement
or other agreement by which Landlord is bound.

         (ii) For purposes of this Section 5.2, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge
that "Assurance" shall mean no less than: Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the
debtor-in-possession, as the case may be, has and will continue to have
sufficient unencumbered assets after the payment of all secured obligations and
administrative expenses to assure Landlord that sufficient funds will be
available to fulfill the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, and (x) there
shall have been deposited with Landlord, or the Bankruptcy Court shall have
entered an order segregating, sufficient cash payable to Landlord to fulfill the
obligations of Tenant under this Lease, and/or (y) Tenant's trustee or Tenant as
the debtor-in-possession, as the case may be, shall have granted a valid and
perfected first lien and security interest and/or mortgage in property of
Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as the case may be,
acceptable as to value and kind to Landlord, to secure to Landlord the
obligation of Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as the
case may be, to cure the Events of Default under this Lease, monetary and/or
non-monetary, within the time periods set forth above.

         (c) In the event that this Lease is assumed in accordance with Section
5.2(b) and thereafter Tenant is liquidated or files or has filed against it a
subsequent petition under Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code,
Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant under
this Lease by giving Tenant notice of its election to so terminate within thirty
(30) days after the occurrence of any such event.

         (d) If Tenant's trustee or Tenant as the debtor-in-possession, as the
case may be, has assumed this Lease pursuant to the terms and provisions of
Sections 5.2(a) or 5.2(b) for the


                                       62
<PAGE>


purpose of assigning (or elects to assign) this Lease, this Lease may be so
assigned only if the proposed assignee (the "Assignee") has provided adequate
assurance of future performance (as hereinafter defined) of all of the terms,
covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. Landlord shall
be entitled to receive all cash proceeds of such assignment. As used herein
"adequate assurance of future performance" shall mean no less than that each of
the following conditions has been satisfied:

           (i) The Assignee has furnished Landlord with either (1) (x) a copy of
a credit rating of Assignee which Landlord reasonably determines to be
sufficient to assure the future performance by Assignee of Tenant's obligations
under this Lease and (y) a current financial statement of Assignee audited by a
certified public accountant indicating a net worth and working capital in
amounts which Landlord reasonably determines to be sufficient to assure the
future performance by Assignee of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, or (2)
a guarantee or guarantees, in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord, from
one or more persons with a credit rating and net worth equal to or exceeding the
credit rating and net worth of Tenant as of the date hereof.

          (ii) The Assignee has obtained all consents or waivers from others
required under any lease, mortgage, financing arrangement or other agreement by
which Landlord is bound to permit Landlord to consent to such assignment.

         (iii) The proposed assignment will not release or impair any guaranty
of the obligations of Tenant (including the Assignee) under this Lease.

         (e) When, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, Tenant's trustee or Tenant
as the debtor-in-possession, as the case may be, shall be obligated to pay
reasonable use and occupancy charges for the use of the Premises, such charges
shall not be less than the Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums payable
under this Lease.

         (f) Neither the whole nor any portion of Tenant's interest in this
Lease or its estate in the Premises shall pass to any trustee, receiver,
assignee for the benefit of creditors, or any other person or entity, by
operation of law or otherwise under the laws of any state having jurisdiction of
the person or property of Tenant unless Landlord shall have consented to such
transfer. No acceptance by Landlord of rent or any other payments from any such
trustee, receiver, assignee, person or other entity shall be deemed to
constitute such consent by Landlord nor shall it be deemed a waiver of
Landlord's right to terminate this Lease as a result of any transfer of Tenant's
interest under this Lease without such consent.

         (g) In the event of an assignment of Tenant's interests pursuant to
this Section 5.2, the right of Assignee to extend the Term of this Lease for an
Extended Term, Wintergreen Extended Term or FMV Extended Term beyond the then
Term of this Lease shall be extinguished.



                                       63

         5.3 Additional Rights of Landlord.

         (a) No right or remedy under this Lease shall be exclusive of any other
right or remedy, but shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or
remedy under this Lease or now or hereafter existing. Failure to insist upon the
strict performance of any provision hereof or to exercise any option, right,
power or remedy contained herein shall not constitute a waiver or relinquishment
thereof for the future. Receipt by Landlord of any Basic Rent, Additional Rent
or other sums payable under this Lease with knowledge of the breach of any
provision hereof shall not constitute waiver of such breach, and no waiver by
Landlord of any provision hereof shall be deemed to have been made unless made
in writing duly executed by Landlord. Landlord shall be entitled to injunctive
relief in case of the violation, or attempted or threatened violation, of any of
the provisions hereof, or to a decree compelling performance of any of the
provisions hereof, or to any other remedy allowed to Landlord by law or equity.

         (b) Tenant hereby waives and surrenders for itself and all those
claiming under it, including creditors of all kinds, (i) any right and privilege
which it or any of them may have to redeem any portion of the Premises or to
have a continuance of this Lease after termination of Tenant's right of
occupancy by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ, or
under the terms of this Lease, or after the termination of the Term of this
Lease as herein provided, and (ii) the benefits of any law which exempts
property from liability for debt or for distress for rent.

         (c) If Tenant shall be in default in the observance or performance of
any term or covenant on Tenant's part to be observed or performed under any of
the provisions of this Lease, then, without thereby waiving such default,
Landlord may, but shall be under no obligation to, take all action, including,
without limitation, entry upon any or all of the Projects to perform the
obligation of Tenant under this Lease immediately and without notice in the case
of an emergency and upon 30 days written notice to Tenant in other cases
(unless, within such 30 days Tenant shall have provided evidence to Landlord
that Tenant has commenced and is diligently pursuing a cure of such default).
All expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, including attorneys'
fees and expenses (including those incurred in connection with any appellate
proceedings), together with interest thereon at the Rate from the date any such
expenses were incurred by Landlord until the date of payment by Tenant, shall
constitute Additional Rent and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

thereof, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses (including those
incurred in connection with any appellate proceedings). If Landlord or Lender
shall be made a party to any litigation commenced against Tenant and Tenant
shall fail to provide Landlord or Lender with counsel reasonably approved by

<PAGE>


         (iii) With reasonable promptness, such additional information
(including copies of public reports filed by Tenant) regarding the business
affairs and financial condition of Tenant as Landlord may reasonably request.

         (c) Upon request of Landlord, and upon concurrent compliance with the
provisions of Section 6.2(d) below, Tenant shall enter into an agreement with
any Lender pursuant to which Tenant shall agree:

         (i) that in the event that any such Lender, or any purchaser at a
foreclosure sale, shall acquire title to a Project, Tenant shall attorn to such
Lender or such purchaser, as the case may be, as its new Landlord and this Lease
shall continue as a direct lease between Tenant and such Lender or purchaser, as
the case may be, with respect to the Premises upon the terms and conditions set
forth herein except that such Lender or purchaser, as the case may be, shall not
be liable to Tenant for any actions or omissions of Landlord prior to the date
such Lender or purchaser, as the case may be, acquired title to the applicable
Project;

         (ii) Tenant shall not enter into any agreement with Landlord for the
termination of this Lease unless Tenant receives the written consent of the
Lender to such termination;

         (iii) no rejection by Landlord of any Rejectable Offer pursuant to this
Lease shall be effective unless Tenant receives the written consent of the
Lender to such rejection, which consent Lender shall be required to provide if
the Loan is paid in accordance with the terms thereof;

         (iv) no rejection or acceptance by Landlord of any Rejectable
Substitution Offer pursuant to this Lease shall be effective unless Tenant
receives the written consent of the Lender to such rejection or acceptance,
which consent Lender shall be required to provide if the Loan is paid in
accordance with the terms thereof;

         (v) no consent to the release of Tenant from liability under this Lease
upon assignment of this Lease or sublease of any Project shall be effective
unless Tenant shall receive the written consent of such Lender; and

         (vi) no subordination, amendment or modification of this Lease shall be
effective unless Tenant receives the written consent of the Lender thereto and
written evidence in writing from the Rating Agencies that any such action shall
not result in a withdrawal, qualification or downgrade of the current ratings
for any securities issued in connection with any securitization or other
secondary market transaction in which the indebtedness secured by the Indenture
is included.

         (d) Upon receipt of a request from Landlord for the agreement described
in Section 6.2(c) above, Tenant's obligations under Section 6.2(c) above shall
be conditioned upon such Lender entering into a non-disturbance and attornment
agreement which shall provide that unless an Event of Default then exists under
this Lease, Lender shall not join Tenant as a defendant in any action to
foreclose upon the interest of Landlord in the Premises and, upon the Lender's
foreclosure of Landlord's interest in the Premises by judicial proceedings or
otherwise,


                                       68
<PAGE>


such Lender shall not be entitled to, nor shall it seek to terminate this Lease
or Tenant's interest in the Premises, provided, that, Tenant, from and after the
date of such succession, attorns to such Lender, pays to such Lender all items
of Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other items accruing from and after such date
and otherwise remains in compliance with all other terms and provisions of this
Lease. Tenant hereby acknowledges that the Subordination, Non-disturbance and
Attornment Agreement of even date herewith, among Tenant, Landlord and Lender
constitutes such an agreement. In the event that Tenant shall execute a separate
document for the benefit of a Lender relating to subordination, attornment or
non-disturbance, such document shall control to the extent that it conflicts
with the provisions of this Section 6.2(d).

                                   ARTICLE 7.

(iii) shall not install or knowingly permit the installation on any of the
Projects of any underground storage tanks or surface impoundments, (iv) shall

Legal



                                       70
<PAGE>


Requirement or unless such non-friable asbestos is hereafter disturbed by
renovation, casualty or other event, in which event the non-friable asbestos
shall be removed and provided further, that any existing non-friable asbestos
shall be maintained in accordance with prudent industry standards, including an
appropriate operations and maintenance program), and (v) shall cause any
alterations of any of the Projects to be done in a way so as to not expose the
persons working on or visiting the applicable Project to Hazardous Substances
and in connection with any such alterations shall remove any Hazardous
Substances present upon any Project which are not in compliance with
Environmental Laws or which present a danger to persons working on or visiting
the applicable Project.

         (b) If any investigation, site monitoring, containment, cleanup,
removal, restoration or other remedial work of any kind or nature (collectively,
the "Remedial Work") is required at the Projects pursuant to an order or
directive of any Governmental Authority (as hereinafter defined) or under any
applicable Environmental Law, or in Landlord's opinion, after notice to Tenant,
is reasonably necessary to prevent future liability under any applicable
Environmental Law, because of or in connection with the current or future
presence or Release, or threatened Release on, at, under, within or emanating to
or from any Project or any portion thereof of any Hazardous Substance, Tenant
shall (at Tenant's sole cost and expense), or shall cause such responsible third
parties to, promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion all such
Remedial Work. In all events, such Remedial Work shall be commenced within
thirty (30) days (or such shorter period as may be required under any applicable
Environmental Law) after the earlier to occur of Tenant's knowledge that
Remedial Work is required under applicable Environmental Laws or any written
demand reasonably made therefor by Landlord; however, Tenant shall not be
required to commence such Remedial Work within the above-specified time periods
if (x) prevented from doing so by any Governmental Authority, (y) commencing
such Remedial Work within such time periods would result in Tenant or such
Remedial Work violating any Environmental Law or (z) Tenant is contesting in
good faith and by appropriate proceedings the applicability of the relevant
Environmental Laws in accordance with Section 2.6 of this Lease; provided, that
such contest shall not (I) create or materially increase the risk of any civil
or criminal liability of any kind whatsoever on the part of Landlord or (II)
permit or materially increase the risk of the spread, Release or threatened
Release of any Hazardous Substance into the air, soil, ground water, surface
water, or soil vapor on, at, under, within or emanating from any Project or any
portion thereof during the pendency of such contest. "Governmental Authority"
shall mean any federal, state, regional or local government or political
subdivision thereof and any Person exercising executive, legislative, judicial,
regulatory or administrative functions of or pertaining to government.

         (c) All Remedial Work shall be performed by contractors, and under the
supervision of an environmental consultant, each approved in advance by
Landlord. All costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with such
Remedial Work and Landlord's or Lender's reasonable monitoring or review of such
Remedial Work which Lender or Landlord may, but are not obligated to, do
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and administrative and
similar costs of Lender and Landlord, but excluding internal overhead) shall be
paid by Tenant. If Tenant does not timely commence and diligently prosecute to
completion the Remedial Work, then Landlord or, as required by the Indenture,
Lender, may (but shall not



                                       71
<PAGE>


be obligated to) cause such Remedial Work to be performed. Tenant agrees to bear
and shall pay or reimburse Landlord or Lender, as the case may be, on demand for
all advances and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements and administrative and similar costs of Landlord or Lender, but
excluding internal overhead) reasonably relating to or incurred by Landlord or
Lender in connection with such Remedial Work (including, without limitation, the
monitoring, reviewing or performing any such Remedial Work). Tenant shall
provide Landlord with copies of all reports, including laboratory data, prepared
in connection with any Remedial Work.

         (d) Except with the prior written consent of Landlord and, as required
by the Indenture, Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed, Tenant shall not commence any Remedial Work or enter into any
settlement agreement, consent decree or other compromise relating to any
Hazardous Substances or Environmental Laws. Landlord's and Lender's prior
written consent with respect to the commencement of Remedial Work shall not be
required, however, if the presence, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous
Substances on, at, under, within, or about, or emanating to or from a Project
poses an immediate threat to the health, safety or welfare of any person or is
of such a nature that an immediate remedial response is necessary, or if Lender
or Landlord, as applicable, fails to respond to any notification by Tenant under
this Section 7.2 within sixty (60) Business Days from the date of such
notification. In such event, Tenant shall notify Lender and Landlord as soon as
practicable of any action taken.

         (e) Upon reasonable prior notice, Landlord and, as required by the
Indenture, Lender and their agents, representatives and employees shall have the
right at all reasonable times and during normal business hours, except to the
extent such access is limited by applicable law, to enter upon and inspect, at
Landlord's and/or Lender's sole cost and expense except as set forth below, all
or any portion of a Project; provided, however, that such inspections shall not
unreasonably interfere with the operation thereof. Either of Landlord or Lender,
at its sole expense, except as provided in Section 7.2(f) hereof, may retain an
environmental consultant to conduct and prepare reports of such inspections. The
inspection rights granted to Landlord and Lender in this Section shall be in
addition to, and not in limitation of, any other inspection rights granted to
Landlord or Lender in this Lease, and shall expressly include the right to
conduct soil borings and other customary environmental tests, assessments and
audits in compliance with applicable Legal Requirements or other causes set
forth in Section 7.2(b); provided that the environmental consultant performing
such tests, assessments and audits shall maintain adequate insurance to cover
any damage caused thereby (failing which Landlord or Lender, as applicable shall
cause to be repaired any such damage).

         (f) Tenant agrees to bear and shall pay or reimburse Landlord or, as
required by the Indenture, Lender, on demand for all expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and administrative and similar
costs of Lender or Landlord, but excluding internal overhead) reasonably
relating to or incurred by Lender or Landlord in connection with the
inspections, tests and reports described in this Section 7.2(e) in the following
situations:



                                       72
<PAGE>


                  (i) If Lender or Landlord, as applicable, has reasonable
         grounds to believe at the time any such inspection is ordered, that
         there exists an Environmental Violation (as hereinafter defined) or
         that a Hazardous Substance is present on, at, under, within or
         emanating to or from any Project, or is migrating to or from adjoining
         property, except under conditions permitted by applicable Environmental
         Laws and not prohibited by this Lease;

                  (ii) If any such inspection reveals an Environmental Violation
         or that a Hazardous Substance is present on, to, under, within or
         emanating to or from a Project or is migrating to or from adjoining
         property, except under conditions permitted by applicable Environmental
         Laws and not prohibited by this Lease; or

                  (iii) If an Event of Default exists at the time any such
         inspection is ordered.

         (g) To the extent that Tenant has knowledge thereof, Tenant shall
promptly, but not more than five (5) days after acquiring such knowledge,
provide notice to Landlord and Lender of:

                  (i) any proceeding or investigation commenced or threatened by
         any Governmental Authority with respect to the presence, Release or
         threatened Release of any Hazardous Substance on, at, under, within or
         emanating to or from any Project;

                  (ii) any proceeding or investigation commenced or threatened
         by any Governmental Authority, against Tenant (or its subtenants or
         assignees) or Landlord, with respect to the presence, Release or
         threatened Release of Hazardous Substances from any property not owned
         by Landlord, including, but not limited to, proceedings under CERCLA;

                  (iii) all claims made or any lawsuit or other legal action or
         proceeding brought by any Person against (A) Tenant (or its subtenants
         or assignees) or Landlord or any Project or any portion thereof, or (B)
         any other party occupying such Project or any portion thereof, in any
         such case relating to any loss or injury allegedly resulting from any
         Hazardous Substance or relating to any violation or alleged violation
         of or liability arising under Environmental Law;

         or on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of such Project,
         which reasonably could be expected to lead to such Project or any

         to any restriction on ownership, occupancy, transferability or use
         under any Environmental Law (collectively, an "Environmental
         Violation") or which might subject Landlord, Lender or Tenant (or its
         subtenants or assignees) to an Environmental Claim. "Environmental
         Claim" shall mean any notice, claim, administrative, regulatory or
         judicial action, suit, lien, order, consent decree or judgment, demand
         alleging or asserting liability or responsibility for investigatory
         costs, legal or other fees, costs of legal proceedings, cleanup costs,

within or emanating to or from any of the Projects or portion thereof of any
Hazardous Substance, (2) form the basis of any violation or alleged violation,
of, or liability or alleged liability under, any Environmental Law by Tenant (or
any subtenants or assignees), Landlord or Lender or with respect to any such
Projects, or (3) constitute Environmental Violations;

         (b) any pollution, loss or damage to property or natural resources or
threat to human health or safety or the health or safety of other living

ENVIRONMENTAL LOSSES RESULT FROM THE STRICT OR ABSOLUTE LIABILITY OF SUCH
INDEMNIFIED PARTY OR ITS NEGLIGENCE, EXCEPT IN EACH CASE, TO THE EXTENT THAT

HAVE UNDER SECTION 49-25 AND 49-26 OF THE VIRGINIA CODE ANNOTATED (1989), AS
AMENDED.

         7.5 Survival

         The indemnity obligations of the Tenant and the rights and remedies of
the Landlord under this Article 7 shall survive the termination of this Lease
for an indefinite period of time.

                                   ARTICLE 8.

         8.1 Holdover

         If the Tenant shall continue to occupy a Project after the Expiration
Date or earlier termination of this Lease, then Tenant shall be in default under
the Lease and deemed to be a holdover tenant, the tenancy of which shall be from
month to month upon the same provisions and conditions set forth in this Lease,
except that the monthly Basic Rent for the holdover period shall be an amount
equal to the Applicable Percentage of the monthly Basic Rent that is, or would
be, payable during the Extended Term or Wintergreen Extended Term pursuant to
Schedule D, whether or not the Primary Term shall have been extended pursuant to
the terms of this Lease. "Applicable Percentage" means (a) one hundred
twenty-five percent (125%) for the first ninety (90) days for such holdover
tenancy and (b) one hundred fifty percent (150%) thereafter. This Article 8 does
not amount to a waiver of the Landlord's right of reentry or any other right
granted under Article 5 and shall not constitute a consent to any holdover by
Tenant.

                                   ARTICLE 9.

         9.1 Deferred Maintenance The parties acknowledge that certain of the
Projects require deferred maintenance as described on Schedule L hereto (the
"Deferred Maintenance"). Tenant shall complete all Deferred Maintenance no later
than October 5, 2002. If Tenant has not completed all such Deferred Maintenance
to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord prior to such date, on October 5,
2002 Tenant shall deposit into a Required Repairs Account, for the benefit of
Landlord, which account may be pledged to Lender (and Tenant hereby consents to
such pledge), an amount equal to 125% of the cost of such Deferred Maintenance,
which amount Tenant agrees shall be $46,912.50. Tenant shall provide evidence to
Landlord and, as required by the Indenture, Lender of its performance pursuant
to this Section 9.1, at which time, so long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, any amount deposited into the Required Repairs
Account shall be released to the Tenant.

         9.2 Deferred Maintenance Work. Tenant agrees the Deferred Maintenance
work which Tenant shall be required or permitted to do under the provisions of
this Lease shall be performed in each case subject to the following:

         (a) All Deferred Maintenance shall be commenced only after all required
municipal and other governmental permits, authorizations and approvals shall
have been obtained by Tenant, at its own cost and expense. Landlord will, on
Tenant's written request, promptly execute any documents necessary to be signed
by Landlord to obtain any such permits, authorizations and approvals, provided
that Tenant shall bear any liability or reasonable expense of Landlord in
connection therewith.

         (b) All Deferred Maintenance shall be performed in a good and
workmanlike manner, and in accordance with all Legal Requirements. All Deferred
Maintenance shall be commenced and completed promptly.

         (c) Subject to the terms of Section 2.6 hereof with respect to
contests, the cost of all Deferred Maintenance shall be paid promptly, in cash,
so that the Project and Tenant's leasehold estate therein shall at all times be
free from (i) liens for labor or materials supplied or claimed to have been
supplied to any Project or Tenant, and (ii) chattel mortgages, conditional sales
contracts, title retention agreements, security interest and agreements, and
financing agreements and statements.

         (d) Upon completion of any Deferred Maintenance, Tenant, at Tenant's
expense, shall obtain certificates of final approval of such Deferred
Maintenance required by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority and
shall furnish Landlord and Lender with copies thereof, and together with
"as-built" plans and specifications for such Deferred Maintenance.

         (e) Any Deferred Maintenance shall be subject to inspection at any
reasonable time and from time to time by any of Landlord or, as required by the
Indenture, Lender, their respective architect(s), or their duly authorized
construction representatives, and if any such party upon any such inspection
shall be of the reasonable opinion that the Deferred Maintenance



                                       76
<PAGE>


is not being performed in accordance with the provisions of this Article 9 or
the plans and specifications, or that any of the materials or workmanship are
unsound or improper, Tenant shall correct any such failure and shall replace any
unsound or improper materials or workmanship.

         (f) Except as may be expressly provided to the contrary under this
Lease with respect to Tenant's Personal Property, all Deferred Maintenance
installed in or upon any Project at any time during the Term shall become the
property of Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Project.

                                  ARTICLE 10.

         10.1 No Merger. There shall be no merger of this Lease or of the
leasehold estate hereby created with the fee estate in any Project by reason of
the fact that the same person acquires or holds, directly or indirectly, this
Lease or the leasehold estate hereby created or any interest herein or in such
leasehold estate as well as the fee estate in the applicable Project or any
interest in such fee estate.

         10.2 Surrender.

         (a) Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant
shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in the condition in which the Premises
were originally received from Landlord, except as repaired, rebuilt, restored,
altered or added to as permitted or required hereby and except for ordinary wear
and tear. Tenant shall remove from the Premises on or prior to such expiration
or termination all Severable Alterations and all Tenant's Personal Property and
shall repair any damage caused by such removal. Property not so removed shall
become the property of Landlord, and Landlord may cause such property to be
removed from the Premises and disposed of, but the cost of any such removal and
disposition and of repairing any damage caused by such removal shall be borne by
Tenant. Landlord shall credit the net proceeds of a disposition of such property
actually realized by Landlord against such costs to be borne by Tenant, provided
that the Lease termination giving rise to such disposition was not caused by an
Event of Default. If Tenant abandons Tenant's Personal Property, it shall become
the property of Landlord as outlined above. The fair market value of the
Tenant's Personal Property shall be determined by the mutual agreement of
Landlord and Tenant, and if the parties cannot agree, by appraisal by an
unrelated third-party appraiser. The provisions of this Section shall survive
the termination or expiration of this Lease. Simultaneously with such surrender,
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord:

         (i) to the extent maintained by Lessee in the ordinary course of its
business, originals of all transferable operating licenses, other licenses,
certificates of occupancy, other certificates, permits, authorizations and
approvals relating to the use and occupancy of the each Project;

         (ii) to the extent in the possession or control of Tenant (x) plans and
specifications for all mechanical, electrical and HVAC systems pertaining to
each Project and



                                       77
<PAGE>


(y) as-built drawings, blueprints, operating and repair manuals, engineering
logs and preventative maintenance records relating to each Project or any
Alteration;

         (iii) maintenance contracts, warranties or claims related to each
Project;

         (iv) keys to each Project and all locks located therein in the
possession or control of Tenant;

         (v) such other papers and documents in the possession or control of
Tenant as may be necessary for the ownership or the proper operation of each
Project; and

         (vi) if and when required by Landlord, an instrument signed by Tenant
which shall be sufficient to transfer to Landlord all right, title and interest
of Tenant in and to all of the items described in subparagraphs (i) through (v)
above, and which shall be satisfactory to Landlord in all other respects.

         10.3 Separability; Binding Effect.

         (a) Each provision hereof shall be separate and independent and the
breach of any provision by Landlord shall not discharge or relieve Tenant from
any of its obligations under this Lease. Each provision hereof shall be valid
and shall be enforceable to the extent not prohibited by law. If any provision
hereof or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall to any
extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the
application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to
which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby. All
provisions contained in this Lease shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit
of, and be enforceable by, the successors and assigns of Landlord to the same
extent as if each such successor and assign were named as a party hereto. All
provisions contained in this Lease shall be binding upon the successors and
assigns of Tenant and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the
permitted successors and assigns of Tenant in each case to the same extent as if
each such successor and assign were named as a party hereto.

         (b) If any right or option provided in this Lease would, in the absence
of the limitation imposed by this sentence, be invalid or unenforceable as being
in violation of the rule against perpetuities or any other rule of law relating
to the vesting of an interest in or the suspension of the power of alienation of
property, then such right or option shall be exercisable only during the period
which shall end 21 years after the date of death of the last survivor of the
descendants of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the former President of the United States,
Henry Ford, the deceased automobile manufacturer, and John D. Rockefeller, the
founder of the Standard Oil Company (but excluding Michael Rockefeller (the son
of Nelson A. Rockefeller) and any descendant of said Michael Rockefeller), alive
on the date of the execution, acknowledgment and delivery of this Lease.

         10.4 Table of Contents and Headings. The table of contents and the
headings of the various Sections and Schedules of this Lease have been inserted
for reference only and



                                       78
<PAGE>


shall not to any extent have the effect of modifying the express terms and
provisions of this Lease.

         10.5 Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in two or more
counterparts and shall be deemed to have become effective when and only when one
or more of such counterparts shall have been signed by or on behalf of each of
the parties hereto (although it shall not be necessary that any single
counterpart be signed by or on behalf of each of the parties hereto, and all
such counterparts shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same
instrument), and shall have been delivered by each of the parties to each other.

         10.6 Recording of Lease. Tenant will execute, acknowledge, deliver and
cause to be recorded or filed in the manner and place required by any present or
future law a memorandum of this Lease and all other instruments, including,
without limitation, financing statements, continuation statements, releases and
instruments of similar character, which shall be reasonably requested by the
Landlord. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs and expenses in connection
with the recording of this Lease or a memorandum hereof. Upon the termination of
this Lease, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be recorded
or filed in the appropriate manner and place any and all instruments evidencing
the termination of this Lease and sufficient to discharge of record any
memorandum of this Lease.

         10.7 Rating of the Transaction. During the Term of the Lease, Tenant
will, at Landlord's request, and as required by the Indenture, reasonably
cooperate in good faith with Landlord and Lender (at Lender's expense for any
third party out-of-pocket costs) in (i) effecting any secondary market
transaction relating to the Loan (including satisfying the market standards for
publicly issued securities rated by each of the Rating Agencies which involve
credit lease loans) and (ii) implementing all requirements imposed by the Rating
Agencies involved in any such secondary market transaction including, without
limitation,

         (a) to provide, or use its reasonable efforts to cause to be provided
by Guarantor, as applicable, such financial and other information with respect
to the Premises, Tenant and Guarantor, together with appropriate verification of
such information through letters of auditors, if customary; provided, however,
that such information with respect to Guarantor shall not include any
confidential non-public information it being understood, however, that in the
event Guarantor ceases to be a public company, Guarantor shall provide its
audited financial statements, on a confidential basis, to Lender and any
applicable Rating Agencies and proposed purchasers or participants;

         (b) to permit such site inspections and other similar due diligence
investigation of the Premises by Landlord, or, as required by the Indenture, by
Lender or the Rating Agencies, as may be reasonably requested by Landlord or
Lender, or as may be requested by any of the Rating Agencies;

         (c) to provide additional or updated appraisals, market studies,
environmental reviews and reports, and engineering reports which are customary
in secondary market transactions and which shall be reasonably acceptable to
Landlord and, as required by the Indenture, Lender, and, as required by the
Indenture, shall be acceptable to the Rating Agencies,



                                       79
<PAGE>

provided that the foregoing shall only be required to the extent that any such
third party due diligence reports which were delivered in connection with the
origination of the Loan referenced therein additional information recommended or
required to be obtained or provided in connection therewith which has not been
so obtained or provided to Landlord or Lender;

         (d) to cause counsel to render opinions with respect to the Premises,
Tenant or Guarantor, and to make, and use its reasonable efforts to cause to be
made by Guarantor, as applicable, such representations and warranties, as are
customarily provided in secondary market transactions, which shall be reasonably
acceptable to Landlord and, as required by the Indenture, Lender, and, as
required by the Indenture, shall be acceptable to the Rating Agencies, to the
extent that such matters were not included in the opinions and representations
and warranties contained in certificates or Operative Documents delivered by
Tenant or Guarantor in connection with the origination of the Loan and, with
respect to such representations and warranties, consistent with the facts
covered thereby as they exist on the date thereof; and

         (e) to execute modifications, and use reasonable efforts to cause
Guarantor to execute modifications, to any Operative Documents to which Tenant
or Guarantor is a party, acceptable to the Rating Agencies; provided, however,
that (i) any such modification shall be subject to Landlord's prior approval,
and (ii) neither Tenant nor Guarantor shall be required to modify any such
Operative Documents in any way which would change the economic terms of such
Operative Documents (such as the amount and timing of payment of Basic Rent,
Stipulated Loss Values and purchase prices under this Lease or of any purchase
options under this Lease), or which would impose additional financial covenants
on Tenant, Subtenant or Guarantor or which, in the reasonable judgment exercised
in good faith by Tenant, Subtenant or Guarantor, as applicable, would materially
impair the rights of or materially increase the obligations of Tenant, Subtenant
or Guarantor under such Operative Documents.



                                       80

         10.8 No Brokers. Each of the Landlord and the Tenant represents and
warrants to the other that it has not dealt with any broker in connection with
the purchase and leasing of the Premises other than as provided in the Contract
of Sale, and indemnifies the other against the claims of brokers claiming
through it.

         10.9 Governing Law. This Lease has been executed, delivered and
accepted in the State of New York and the terms and provisions of this Lease
shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to
the conflict of laws rules and principles of such state), and the United States
of America, except the rights and remedies with respect to a particular Project
shall be governed by the laws of the state in which the Project is located. To
the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby unconditionally and
irrevocably waives any claim to assert that the law of any jurisdiction other
than New York or the law of the State in which the applicable Project is
located, as applicable, governs this Lease. Tenant hereby consents and will
submit to the jurisdiction and venue of New York Courts and the United States
Southern District of New York in connection with any action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Lease, other than with respect to a
particular Property.

         10.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. LANDLORD AND TENANT HEREBY AGREE NOT TO
ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE
EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THIS
LEASE OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION
THEREWITH. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND
VOLUNTARILY BY TENANT AND LANDLORD AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY
EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD
OTHERWISE ACCRUE. LANDLORD AND TENANT ARE HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF
THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER.

         10.11 Conveyance by Landlord. The word "Landlord" as used in this Lease
means only the owner for the time being of the Premises, so that, if there is a
transfer of an owner's interest, the transferor shall be and hereby is entirely
freed and relieved of all covenants and obligations of the Landlord under this
Lease, except any obligations which accrued prior to the date of transfer, and
it shall be deemed and construed, without further agreement between the parties
or between the parties and the transferee of the Premises, that the transferee
has assumed and has agreed to carry out any and all of the Landlord's covenants
and obligation under this Lease from and after the date of transfer.

         10.12 Intent; Relationship of the Parties. This agreement is intended
to be a lease for all purposes. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be
construed in any manner to create any relationship between the Landlord and the
Tenant other than the relationship of landlord and tenant. Without limitation,
the Landlord and the Tenant shall not be considered partners or co-venturers or
lender or borrower for any purpose on account of this Lease.



                                       81
<PAGE>


         10.13 Representation by Counsel. Tenant and Landlord each acknowledge
that it was represented by counsel in connection with the negotiation and
execution of this Lease, and any presumption to the effect that ambiguities are
to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the
interpretation of this Lease.

         10.14 Access to Premises. The Tenant will permit the Landlord, any
Lender or prospective Lender or purchaser, and their duly authorized
representatives to enter upon the Premises and to inspect the same at any and
all reasonable times, upon five (5) Business days' advance written notice, and
at any time in the case of an emergency without the giving of notice, and for
any purpose reasonably related to the rights of the Landlord and any Lender
under this Lease. Landlord and Lender shall, in exercising such rights of
access, cause no unreasonable interference with Tenant's business or Tenant's
guests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees that it will not exercise
the foregoing right of access for any particular Project more than once in any
calendar year except (a) during such time as an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, or (b) in the event of a sale, financing, refinancing or
securitization of any Indenture relating to the Project or the Premises, or (c)
if Landlord has reasonable grounds to believe that a Project is in violation of
Legal Requirements (including Environmental Laws) or that a Project is not being
maintained in accordance with the requirements of this Lease or (d) as otherwise
expressly provided in this Lease.

         10.15 Showing. During the fifteen (15) month period preceding the date
on which the Term shall be scheduled to terminate or fully expire, Landlord, if
accompanied by a representative of Tenant and subject to the rights of any
subtenant not affiliated with Tenant, may show the Premises to prospective
tenants or purchasers at such reasonable times during normal business hours as
Landlord may select upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant, provided that
Landlord does not materially interfere with Tenant's normal business operations.

         10.16 True Lease. This Lease is intended as, and shall constitute, an
agreement of lease, and nothing herein shall be construed as conveying to the
Tenant any right, title or interest in or to the Premises nor to any remainder
or reversionary estates in the Premises held by any Person, except, in each
instance, as a Tenant. Under no circumstances shall this Lease be regarded as an
assignment of all of Landlord's interests in and to the Premises; instead
Landlord and Tenant shall have the relationship between them of landlord and
tenant, pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. In no event shall Tenant or
any affiliate of Tenant claim depreciation, amortization or interest deductions
as owner of any Project or as borrower on the Loan for United States federal,
state or local income tax purposes (except as to Alterations not financed by
Landlord). Landlord and Tenant agree that this Lease is a true lease and as such
the Landlord shall be treated as the owner and lessor of the Projects and the
Tenant as the lessee thereof and that this Lease does not represent a financing
arrangement. Each party shall reflect the transaction represented hereby in all
applicable books, records and reports (including tax filings) in a manner
consistent with "true lease" treatment rather than "financing" treatment.

         10.17 Landlord's Consent and Standards.



                                       82
<PAGE>


         (a) Whenever Landlord is allowed or required to give its consent or
approval of any matter under this Lease or to deliver any estoppel or other
instrument, Tenant's sole remedy for Landlord's failure to give such consent or
approval or deliver such instrument in accordance with the applicable provision
of this Lease shall be to compel such approval or delivery. In no event and
under no circumstance shall Tenant be entitled to any monetary damages for such
failure or to terminate or otherwise modify this Lease. However, if Tenant shall
bring such an action to compel consent, approval or delivery, the prevailing
party in such action shall be entitled to reimbursement for its reasonable
attorneys' fees; provided, however, that with respect to any attorneys' fees to
be reimbursed by Landlord, such fees and Tenant's right to recover the same
shall be junior and subordinate to the Indenture, and in no event shall Tenant
be entitled to offset any amounts due under this Lease to recover such fees.

         (b) Under no circumstance shall Landlord or any Indemnified Party be
deemed to have acted negligently, grossly negligently or willfully merely by
Landlord's or such Indemnified Party's ownership of the Premises, and in no
event shall any occurrence relating to any Project, whether negligent, grossly
negligent or willful, be imputed to Landlord or any Indemnified Party by reason
of Landlord's or such Indemnified Party's interest in such Project, it being
understood that all obligations with respect to the Premises are the
responsibility of Tenant under this Lease. In order to have acted negligently,
grossly negligently or willfully, Landlord or any Indemnified Party must have
committed an affirmative act.

         10.18 Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants that, so long as Tenant shall
faithfully perform the agreements, terms, and covenants and conditions hereof,
Tenant shall and may peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for
the Term hereby granted without molestation or disturbance by or from Landlord.

         10.19 Force Majeure. The term "Force Majeure", as used in this Lease,
shall mean delays caused by acts of God, strikes and other similar events beyond
the control of Tenant. However, the duration of any delay excused by Force
Majeure shall be limited to the actual amount of time caused by the event giving
rise to the Force Majeure. In addition, no performance by Tenant under this
Lease shall be excused by Force Majeure unless the requirement for performance
