     All relevant provisions of the lease are hereby amended to provide that
     tenant's sole environmental responsibility is to do what tenant in its
     capacity as tenant is required to do under federal and New York statutes,
     and to provide further that the landlord will indemnify the tenant and
     holds it harmless from any and all claims, actions or proceedings asserted
     at any time against tenant with respect to any environmental contamination

     pay the Promissory Note due and owing to the Company as provided in the
     Agreement and such default is not cured within 30 days after notice and/or
     (ii) in the event that the Buyer defaults under its obligations hereunder
     to pay trade payables that are included in the Assumed Obligations assumed

     30 days after Company has given notice to the Buyer of the Buyer's failure
     to pay such payables within such time, and (iii) a default by the tenant
     under any of such leases, which is not cured within 30 days after notice,
     shall constitute a default under all such leases, any of the aforesaid

     the court having jurisdiction thereof to Judgments of Possession and

     proceedings pursuant to the pertinent provisions of Article 7 of the Real
     Estate Practices and Proceedings Act of the State of New York. The
