WHEREAS, the Lease was thereafter assigned by said People Express to the Lessee pursuant to an Assignment of Lease with Assumption and Consent Agreement entered into among the Port Authority, the Lessee and People Express and dated August 15, 1987; and 


WHEREAS, a certain Stipulation between the parties hereto was submitted for approval of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court") covering the Lessee's assumption of the Lease as part of the confirmation of its reorganization plan in its Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings and as debtor and debtor in possession pursuant to the applicable provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code as set forth in and subject to the terms and conditions of said Stipulation (said Stipulation being hereinafter referred to as the "Stipulation"); and


WHEREAS, the Stipulation and the Lessee's assumption of the Lease was approved by the Bankruptcy Court by an Order thereof dated the 1st day of October, 1993; and 


WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Lease in certain respects as hereinafter set forth; 


NOW, THEREFORE, the Port Authority and the Lessee hereby agree as follows:


 

1.The provisions of Schedule M, set forth in Paragraph 2 to Supplement No. 15 to the Lease, shall be amended as of October 1, 2001 such that Article III, paragraph (b) of said Schedule M shall be revised to read in its entirety as follows:



"(b)" The Port Authority shall determine the total amount of rental or fees actually received by the Port Authority from rental car permittees specifically for and in connection with the portion of the Monorail Construction Costs and Operating Costs said permittees are obligated under their respective permits to pay the Port Authority (hereinafter called the "Rental Car Credit").  The term "Bus Service Credit" shall mean the amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($500,000.00).  The Port Authority shall determine the total amount of farebox revenue to which it is entitled and which it actually receives from (i) The New Jersey Transit Corporation ("NJT"), pursuant to a written agreement, dated as of October 24, 2001, between NJT and the Port Authority and (ii) the National Railroad Passenger Corporation ("Amtrak"), pursuant to a written agreement, dated as of October 31, 2001, between Amtrak and the Port Authority, which agreements relate to the Monorail-Northeast Corridor Connection Project to expand the Monorail System at the Airport to provide an intermodal connection between the Airport and commuter and intercity trains operating on land located in the City of Newark, County of Essex and State of New Jersey, known as the Northeast Corridor (hereinafter called the "NEC Project Credit").  The Rental Car Credit, the Bus Service Credit and the NEC Project Credit shall be hereinafter collectively called the "Credits").

3.Neither the Commissioners of the Port Authority nor any of them, nor any officer, agent or employee thereof, shall be charged personally by the Lessee with any liability, or held liable to it under any term or provision of this Supplemental Agreement, or because of its execution or attempted execution or because of any breach thereof.


4.As hereby amended, all of the terms, covenants, provisions, conditions and agreements of the Lease shall be and remain in full force and effect.
