Floor, New York, New York 10013 (“Landlord”), and WATERFRONT MEDIA INC., a Delaware
corporation, having an address at 45 Main Street, Brooklyn, New York 11201 (“Tenant”).



W I T N E S S E T H:




     WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant entered into a lease dated as of August 26, 2009 (the
“Lease”), for certain premises on the 16th floor (the “Original
Premises”) of the building known as 345 Hudson Street, New York, New York (the
“Building”) for a term expiring on October 31, 2018; and



     WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the Lease to add certain additional premises to
the “Premises” (as such term is defined in the Lease); and otherwise amend the provisions
of the Lease, all on the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement.



     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants and conditions
hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows:



     1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used in this Agreement which are not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Lease.



     2. Additional Premises.



          (a) A portion of the sixteenth (16th) floor of the Building, substantially as shown
hatched on the plan annexed hereto as Schedule A (the “Additional Premises”), is
hereby added to and shall be considered a part of the Premises demised under the Lease, commencing
on the date on which Landlord shall tender delivery of the Additional Premises to Tenant in vacant
and broom-clean condition (the “Additional Premises Commencement Date”). The lease of the
Additional Premises shall expire on October 31, 2018.




          (b) Tenant shall lease the Additional Premises in its “as is” condition as of the date of this
Agreement, reasonable wear and between the date hereof and the Additional Premises Commencement

essence), Tenant shall not be entitled to any payment or credit for such unused amounts.



     4. Fixed Rent and Percentage Escalation. (a) From and after the Additional Premises
Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay Fixed Rent and the Operating Expense Payment for the Additional

amended by this Agreement), Tenant shall be entitled to a credit against Fixed Rent payable for the
Additional Premises for the first four months of the Term of the Lease for the Additional Premises,
and for the month of August 2011, each such monthly credit equal to $14,633.13 per month.




     5. Tax Escalation Rent. From and after January 1, 2011, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s
Share of any increases in Taxes attributable to the Additional Premises in accordance with
Article 3 of the Lease, except that for the purposes of determining Tenant’s Tax Payment
applicable to the Additional Premises:



          (a) The term “Base Tax Factor” with respect to the Additional Premises shall mean the
Taxes payable for the calendar year 2010; and




          (b) The term “Tenant’s Share” with respect to the Additional Premises shall mean .58%.




     6. Electric Current. From and after the Additional Premises Commencement Date, Tenant
shall pay for electric current supplied to the Additional Premises pursuant to the provisions of
Article 4 of the Lease. To the extent a submeter does not exist and is required to measure Tenant’s
consumption of electricity in the Additional Premises, Landlord shall install such submeter at its
expense. To the extent that Tenant exercise its Expansion Option under the Lease or otherwise
leases the balance of the 16th floor of the Building. Landlord, at its expense, shall
install a submeter to measure the electricity required to operate the Building HVAC System
exclusively serving the 16th floor and Tenant shall pay for such electricity in accordance with
Article 4 of the Lease.

meeting the requirements of Article 35 of the Lease. Landlord shall hold and disburse such
Security Deposit in accordance with Article 35 of the Lease.




     8. Broker. Landlord and Tenant each represents and warrants that it has had no
dealings or communications with any broker or agent in connection with this Agreement, other than
Cushman & Wakefield, Inc. (the “Broker”). Landlord and Tenant covenant and agree to pay,
hold harmless and indemnify the other party from and against any and all claims or other liability
for any compensation, commissions or charges claimed by any broker or agent (other than the Broker
with respect to Tenant’s indemnity to Landlord) who claims to have dealt with the indemnitor in
connection with this Agreement and for any and all costs incurred by the indemnitee in connection
with such claims, including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Landlord shall
pay Broker its commission pursuant to separate agreement. The provisions of this Section 8
shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement.



     9. Freight Elevator. Provided Tenant has scheduled such use with Landlord, Tenant may
use a freight elevator during Overtime Periods for Tenant’s initial move into the Additional
Premises, and Landlord will waive the first $4,000 in such freight elevator charges.



     10. Ratification. Except as modified by this Agreement, all of the terms, covenants
and conditions of the Lease shall apply to the Additional Premises and shall remain in full force
and effect.



     11. Signatures. This Agreement is offered for signature by Tenant and it is understood
that this Agreement shall not be binding upon Landlord or Tenant unless and until Landlord shall
