     3. The Master Lease is hereby terminated as to the Released Premises
only, as of the Effective Date; provided, however, except as set forth in
Section 7 of this Amendment, such partial termination shall not be construed
or interpreted as: (a) terminating, limiting or affecting in any manner the
obligations and liabilities of Lessee pursuant to the Master Lease as to the
Remaining Premises and the Substitute Premises, and such obligations under
the Master Lease as to the Remaining Premises and the Substitute Premises
shall survive any amendments, partial cancellation or partial termination of
the Master Lease and the Master Lease shall remain in full force and effect

execution and delivery of the Substitution Agreement and all instruments
contemplated thereby; or, (b) modifying, amending, terminating, limiting or

the Master Lease as set forth in the following Section 4.

                                     2

     4. As to the Released Premises only, Lessee hereby surrenders,
relinquishes and releases unto Lessor all of its right, title and interest in
and to the Master Lease and the Released Premises, and in consideration of
the release of the remainder of the term of the Master Lease as it pertains
to the Released Premises and other good and valuable consideration, Lessor
hereby agrees that Lessee shall be discharged, relieved and released from any
liability for rents or other charges and all other Master Lease obligations
arising and accruing with respect to the Master Lease as to the Released
Premises only from and after the Effective Date; provided, however, such
partial surrender, relinquishment, discharge and release shall not be
interpreted or construed as modifying, amending, terminating, limiting or
affecting in any manner (the "Continuing Obligations"):

     (i)        Lessee's obligations and liabilities arising under the
                Master Lease which have accrued as to the Released Premises
                prior to the Effective Date;

     (ii)       Lessee's indemnification and hold harmless obligations to
                Lessor set forth in Section 19 of the Master Lease as to the
                Released Premises; and

     (iii)      any obligations and liabilities of Lessee to Lessor which
                have accrued prior to the Effective Date that are contained
                in any estoppel certificate relating to the Released
                Premises delivered by Lessee to Lessor under the Master
                Lease.

As to the Released Premises, Lessee shall be obligated to pay and perform all
of the Continuing Obligations in accordance with the corresponding terms and
provisions of the Master Lease.

     5. Lessee agrees to and does hereby release and discharge Lessor, its
employees, officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives,
affiliates, successors and assigns, as applicable (collectively, the
"Released Parties"), from all claims, and demands of any nature (known or
unknown, matured or unmatured) whatsoever which Lessee may now have or
hereafter have or claim to have against any of the Released Parties with
respect to the Master Lease and/or the Released Premises, whether arising on,
prior to or after the Effective Date, except as expressly set forth in the
Substitution Agreement.

     6. The parties acknowledge and agree that the partial termination of the
Master Lease with respect to the Released Premises accomplished by this
Amendment shall have no effect on the Remaining Premises, the Substitute
Premises and/or the Master Lease as it applies to such Remaining Premises and
Substitute Premises, and an appropriate notation of the removal of the
Released Premises and the addition of the Substitute Premises shall be made
by Lessor to Exhibit A and Exhibit A-1 of the Master Lease and Lessee shall
be deemed to request Lessor to make such notation, deleting the Released
Premises from, and adding the Substitute Premises to, such Exhibit A and
Exhibit A-1 and thereafter no further amendment, modification or change shall
be required to be made to the Master Lease.

     7. If and only to the extent a written forbearance letter has been
entered into between FFC and Lessor, then, to such extent, and only as to the
Loan Documents and the particular Premises that are the subject of such
forbearance letter (a "Forbearance Premises"), neither Lessor nor Lessee
shall be deemed in default, breach, or violation of Sections 7.G, 15 (the
second

                                     3

sentence of that Section only), 16.D(ii), 23.(A) (sub-clause (v) only
relating to the word "vacates"), and 44 (the first sub-clause (i) in that
Section only relating to the word "use") during the term of said forbearance
letter, as a result of the Forbearance Premises that is the subject of said
forbearance letter being closed.

     8. This Amendment sets forth all of the terms, conditions and
understandings between Lessor and Lessee with respect to the amendment of the
Master Lease with respect to the Released Premises and the Substitute
Premises, and there are no terms, conditions or understandings, either oral
or written, between the parties hereto with regard to the amendment of the
Master Lease other than as set forth herein.  No alteration, amendment,
change or addition to this Amendment shall be binding unless reduced to
writing and signed by all of the parties hereto.

     9. This Amendment shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

     10. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Lessor and Lessee have caused this Amendment to be duly
executed as of the Effective Date.
