 2. Paragraph 21 of the Lease, entitled Assignment and Subletting; Prohibition against
Leasehold Financing, is hereby amended by inserting “and Paragraph 33” immediately after “Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 35” in the first line of Subparagraph (h) thereof, and by inserting the following
Subparagraph (i) immediately after Subparagraph (h) thereof: 
 (i) In the event of a single transaction or series of
transactions (including any interim merger or consolidation), whereby Tenant enters into an agreement to sell or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets with respect to a Related Premises, a group of Related Premises or all
of Tenant’s assets (each an “Asset Transfer”) to any Person such that the Asset Transfer would be deemed an assignment of all or a portion of this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to conduct an Asset Transfer to a Person
without Landlord’s and Lender’s consent if the following conditions are met: (i) the Asset Transfer is to a Person that (A) immediately following such transaction or transactions, taken in the aggregate, is (or would be, on a pro
forma basis) a Credit Entity; and (ii) this Lease is assigned to and assumed by such Person as a part of such Asset Transfer. As used herein, a “Credit Entity” shall mean any Person that immediately following such assignment or
subletting and having given effect thereto will have a publicly traded unsecured senior debt rating of “Baa2” or better from Moody’s or a rating of “BBB” or better from S&P (or, if such Person does not then have rated
debt, a determination that by either of such rating agencies its unsecured senior debt would be so rated by such agency and will not be on “Negative Credit Watch”), and in the event both such rating agencies cease to furnish such ratings,
then a comparable rating by any rating agency acceptable to Landlord and Lender. To the extent a permitted Asset Transfer requires a bifurcation of this Lease into two leases, one for each Related Premises (each a “Bifurcated
Lease”), this Lease shall be bifurcated at Tenant’s Cost, and the Basic Rent under each such Bifurcated Lease shall be allocated between each of the Related Premises as provided in Exhibit F of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event that an Asset Transfer shall result in Landlord being required to defease the Loan on any date after the Final Assumption Order Date, Tenant shall pay and reimburse Landlord for all Costs in
connection with such defeasance. 
 3. Paragraph 33 of the Lease, entitled Intentionally Deleted, is hereby deleted and
the following Paragraph 33, entitled Option to Cause Purchase, is inserted in lieu thereof: 
 (a) Landlord does hereby
give and grant to Tenant the option to cause to be purchased (the “Purchase Option”), the Release Premises by a third-party buyer (the “Designee”) (i) for a purchase price equal to or in excess of the
applicable Floor Net Sale Price for the Release Premises (the “Release Premises Amount”), (ii) subject to a purchase and sale agreement acceptable to Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion and the payment by Tenant, or its
designee, of all Costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the Purchase Option, and (iii) on any date (the “Option Purchase Date”) which is mutually agreeable to Landlord and Tenant. If Tenant desires to exercise
this Purchase Option, yet is unable to procure a purchaser willing and able to pay an amount at least equal to the Floor Net Sale Price, then Tenant may only exercise this Purchase Option if, in addition to payment by said purchaser of the
applicable purchase price, Tenant pays Landlord on the Purchase Option Closing Date the difference between the purchase price actually paid by such purchaser to Landlord and the Floor Net Sale Price for the Release Premises sold. If Tenant intends
to exercise the Purchase Option, Tenant shall give written notice (the “Option Exercise Notice”) to Landlord to such effect not later than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the scheduled Option Purchase Date. 

 

 -3- 








 (b) If Tenant shall exercise the Purchase Option, then, subject to the compliance by Tenant
of all terms of this Lease, on the later to occur of (i) the Option Purchase Date or (ii) the date when Tenant has satisfied all Monetary Obligations, including the payment obligations under Paragraph 33(a) (such later date, the
“Purchase Option Closing Date”), Landlord shall convey the Release Premises to Designee in accordance with Paragraph 20 hereof; provided, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the Option Purchase Date,
Landlord, at its sole option, may terminate Tenant’s option to purchase hereunder. IF THIS LEASE SHALL TERMINATE FOR ANY REASON PRIOR TO THE DATE ORIGINALLY FIXED HEREIN FOR THE EXPIRATION OF THE TERM, OR IF TENANT SHALL FAIL TO GIVE THE
AFORESAID NOTICE OF INTENTION TO PURCHASE PRIOR TO TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE END OF THE TERM, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE, THE OPTION PROVIDED IN THIS PARAGRAPH 33 AND ANY EXERCISE THEREOF BY TENANT SHALL CEASE AND TERMINATE AND SHALL BE NULL AND VOID.
IN SUCH EVENT TENANT SHALL EXECUTE A QUITCLAIM DEED AND SUCH OTHER DOCUMENTS AS LANDLORD SHALL REASONABLY REQUEST EVIDENCING THE TERMINATION OF THE PURCHASE OPTION. 
 3. Paragraph 20 of the Lease, entitled Procedures upon Purchase, is hereby amended by inserting “or cause to be paid to Landlord” after Landlord in line three (3) of Subparagraph
(b), and by deleting Subparagraph (a) in its entirety and adding the following Subparagraphs (a) in lieu thereof: 
 (a) If the Leased Premises or any of the Related Premises are purchased by Tenant pursuant to this Lease or, in connection with the exercise of the Purchase Option, by the Designee, Landlord need not convey any better title thereto than
that which was conveyed to Landlord, and Tenant or its designee shall accept such title, subject, however, to the Permitted Encumbrances and to all other liens, exceptions and restrictions on, against or relating to any of the Leased Premises or the
applicable Related Premises and to all applicable Laws, but free of the lien of and security interest created by any Mortgage or Assignment and liens, exceptions and restrictions on, against or relating to the Leased Premises or the applicable
Related Premises which have been created by or resulted solely from acts of Landlord after the date of this Lease, unless the same are Permitted Encumbrances or customary utility easements benefiting the Leased Premises or were created with the
concurrence of Tenant or as a result of a default by Tenant under this Lease. 
 4. Paragraph 1 of Exhibit “D”
of the Lease, entitled Basic Rent; Additional Basic Rent, is hereby amended by deleting Subparagraph 1(a) in its entirety and adding the following Subparagraph 1(a) in lieu thereof: 
 1. Subject to the adjustments provided for in Paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this Exhibit “D”: 
 (a) (i) Basic rent (“Basic Rent”) payable for each annual period from the date of the Original Lease until the First Basic
Rent Reduction Date shall be [*] per annum, payable quarterly in advance on each Basic Rent Payment Date, in equal installments of [*] each. Due to the adjustments provided for in Paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this Exhibit 
  
  
  
  

	*	Confidential

“D”, annual Basic Rent payable as of the date of this Agreement is [*] per annum, payable quarterly in advance on each Basic Rent Payment Date, in equal installments of [*] each.

 (ii) Subject to the adjustments provided for in Subparagraphs (iii) through (vi) of this Paragraph 4(a) and
subject further to Paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this Exhibit “D”: 
 (A) On the First Basic Rent Reduction Date Tenant
shall be entitled to a credit against annual Basic Rent in an amount equal to [*] per Lease Year (“Credit”) which credit shall be deducted in equal quarterly installments on each Basic Rent Payment Date for the remainder of the
Tenn. 
 (B) Provided no Event of Default has occurred which remains uncured as of the date of the First Basic Rent Reduction
Date and, provided further that Tenant has satisfied all Monetary Obligations as of such date, if the First Basic Rent Reduction Date does not occur on a Basic Rent Payment Date, Tenant shall be entitled to a per diem credit in an amount equal to
[*] for each day commencing on the First Basic Rent Reduction Date up to and including the day immediately preceding the next occurring Basic Rent Payment Date. The amount of this credit shall be deducted by Tenant from the quarterly Basic Rent
payable on the Basic Rent Payment Date immediately following the First Basic Rent Reduction Date. 
 (iii) Subject to the
adjustments provided for in Subparagraphs (iv), (v) and (vi) of this Paragraph 4(a) and subject further to Paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this Exhibit “D”: 
 (A) Commencing on the date on which the first Purchase Option Closing Date occurs (the “First Purchase Option Closing
Date”), annual Basic Rent then payable shall be reduced by an amount equal to: (a) the Release Premises Amount multiplied by 12.08 percent (the “First Reduction Amount”) minus (b) the Credit. If the Credit
exceeds the First Reduction Amount, then Basic Rent shall not be reduced and that portion of the Credit which is in excess of the First Reduction Amount (the “Remaining Credit”) shall be taken into account when Basic Rent is
adjusted in connection with a Subsequent Purchase Option Closing Date. (By way of two examples: (1) if the Release Premises Amount equals [*], the First Reduction Amount equals [*], yet since [*] exceed this amount, Basic Rent after the First
Purchase Option Closing Date remains the same and the Remaining Credit is [*]; (2) if the Release Premises Amount equals [*], the First Reduction Amount equals [*] minus the Credit equals [*]; if annual Basic Rent prior the First Purchase
Option Closing Date was [*], such annual Basic Rent is reduced by [*], providing for annual Basic Rent after the First Purchase Option Closing Date of [*]; and the Remaining Credit equals $0.00.) 
 (B) The amount of Basic Rent resulting from this calculation shall be payable henceforth for each annual period in respect of the remainder
of the Term, payable quarterly in advance on each subsequent Basic Rent Payment Date.

 -5- 








 
Subsection 1(a)(iii)(A) above, Tenant shall be entitled to a per diem credit for the difference in Basic Rent, if any, for each day commencing on the First Purchase Option Closing Date up to and
including the day immediately preceding the next occurring Basic Rent Payment Date. The amount of this credit shall be deducted by Tenant from the quarterly Basic Rent payable on the Basic Rent Payment Date immediately following the First Purchase
Option Closing Date. 
 (iv) Subject to the adjustments provided for in Subparagraphs (v) and (vi) of this Paragraph
4(a) and subject further to Paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this Exhibit “D”: 
 (A) Commencing on the date of a
Purchase Option Closing Date occurring subsequent to the First Purchase Option Closing Date (each such date, a “Subsequent Purchase Option Closing Date”), annual Basic Rent then payable shall be reduced by an amount equal to:
(a) the Release Premises Amount times 12.08 percent (each a “Subsequent Reduction Amount”) minus (b) the Remaining Credit, if any. 
 (B) The amount of Basic Rent resulting from this calculation shall be payable henceforth for each annual period in respect of the remainder of the Term, payable quarterly in advance in equal installments
on each subsequent Basic Rent Payment Date. 
 (C) If the Subsequent Purchase Option Closing Date does not occur on a Basic
Rent Payment Date and, provided further that quarterly Basic Rent is reduced pursuant to Subsection 1(a)(iv)(A) above, Tenant shall be entitled to a per diem credit for the difference in Basic Rent, if any, for each day commencing on the Subsequent
Purchase Option Closing Date up to and including the day immediately preceding the next occurring Basic Rent Payment Date. The amount of this credit shall be deducted by Tenant from the quarterly Basic Rent payable on the Basic Rent Payment Date
immediately following the First Purchase Option Closing Date. 
 (v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Subparagraphs
1(iii) and (iv) hereinabove, in no event shall any reduction of Basic Rent exceed the amount of Basic Rent allocated (in accordance with Exhibit F ) to the sold Release Premises immediately prior to the sale of such Release Premises.

 (vi) Pro rata Basic Rent for the period from the date of the Original Lease through the twenty-fourth day of April, 2002 has
been paid on the date of the Original Lease, and pro rata Basic Rent for the period from the twenty-fifth day of the last month of the Term through the last day of the last month of the Term shall be paid with the final quarterly installment of
Basic Rent. 
 5. Paragraph 36 of the Lease, entitled Security Deposit, is hereby amended by deleting Subparagraph
(d) in its entirety and adding the following Subparagraph (d) in lieu thereof: 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in Subparagraphs (a) through (c) and (d) of this Paragraph 36, on the first anniversary of the First Purchase Option Closing Date, Landlord may draw on the Letter of Credit or withdraw from the Cash Security Deposit or
Proceeds Deposit an amount up to [*] which Landlord may use towards the reimbursement of defeasance Costs incurred in connection with the release of the Release

Premises from the Loan or to defease the Loan in its entirety. Tenant shall not be obligated to pay or reimburse Landlord for Loan defeasance cost in excess of the amount Landlord received (or
shall have received) pursuant to this Subparagraph (d). 
 6. (a) Except as set forth in Subparagraph 6(b) of this Agreement,
the terms of this Agreement shall be of no force or effect until the Final Assumption Order Date.

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the following obligations shall be binding and enforceable upon the parties’ execution of this Agreement: (i) Landlord’s agreement to amend the Lease subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement upon the Final Assumption Order Date, (ii) Tenant shall make a good faith effort to procure a Final Assumption Order effective as of the Plan Effective Date as part of and simultaneously with the confirmation of a plan of
reorganization for or involving Tenant, and (iii) Subparagraph 6(a) of this Agreement. 
 7. In partial exchange for the
lease concessions made herein by Landlord, Tenant agrees, effective as of entry of the Final Assumption Order, to waive and release Landlord and its affiliates and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, from
all claims and causes of action Tenant may have against Landlord that arose on or before the Plan Effective Date, including without limitation, any claims based on liability under (a) the Sherman Act, (b) any other applicable antitrust
law, or (c) chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code. 
 8. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
but subject to Paragraph 6 of this Agreement, Landlord reserves all rights and remedies under the Lease that relate to any non-monetary defaults (“Non-Monetary Defaults”) by Tenant. 
 9. As to Non-Monetary Defaults by Tenant arising before the date of this Amendment (without regard to whether notice was required to
establish the default) (“Pre-Amendment Non-Monetary Defaults”), Landlord agrees that Tenant shall not be precluded or otherwise restricted from assuming the Lease pursuant to Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code based on any failure
by Tenant to cure, compensate, or give adequate assurance of any cure or compensation for any Pre-Amendment Non-Monetary Defaults. Landlord and Tenant intend that Landlord shall have the right to enforce its rights and remedies in respect of any
Pre-Amendment Non-Monetary Defaults after the Confirmation Date in a court other than the Bankruptcy Court. 
 10.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, except with respect to Landlord’s and Tenant’s agreements in Paragraph 6 hereof, this Amendment shall be null and void unless the Final Assumption Order is entered by the
Bankruptcy Court no later than August 13, 2007.

or broker. All negotiations with respect to the terms of this Amendment have been conducted between Landlord and Tenant. The parties hereto covenant

and agree to indemnify and hold each other harmless from and against any and all claims for commissions and other compensation made by any agent or agents and/or broker or brokers based on any
dealing between either party hereto and any agent or agents and/or broker or brokers, together with all costs and expenses incurred by either party hereto in resisting such claims (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees). 
 13. The parties hereto represent and warrant to each other that this Amendment (and each term and provision hereof) has been duly and
appropriately authorized by the parties hereto through proper written corporate or partnership action and approval, as applicable, and, subject to Paragraph 6 of this Amendment, no additional consent, agreement or approval is required with
respect hereto. 
 14. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings
ascribed thereto in the Lease. 
 15. Except as modified and amended by this Agreement and subject to Paragraph 6 hereof, all of
the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease are hereby ratified and confirmed and shall continue to be and remain in full force and effect throughout the remainder of the term thereof. 
 16. If and to the extent that any of the provisions of this Agreement conflict with or are otherwise inconsistent with any of the provisions
of the Lease, whether or not such inconsistency is expressly noted in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. 
 17. This Agreement and the Lease together contain the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof or thereof. Any promises,
representations, warranties or guarantees not herein or therein contained and hereinafter made shall have no force and effect unless in writing, and executed by the party or parties making such representations, warranties or guarantees. Neither this
