            In addition to the payment of Annual Fixed Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord for each Lease
Year during the Term of this Lease, as Percentage Rent a sum equal to

the delivery of such statement, pay to Landlord any Percentage Rent due for such Lease Year.

            The receipt by Landlord of any statement or any payment of Percentage Rent for any period
shall not bind it as to the correctness of the statement or the payment. Landlord shall within
three years after the receipt of any such statement be entitled to an audit of such Gross Sales.
Such audit shall be limited to the determination of the Gross Sales as defined in this Lease and
shall be conducted during normal business hours at the principal place of business of Tenant. If
it is determined

6

 

as a result of such audit that there has been a deficiency in the payment of Percentage Rent, then
such deficiency shall become immediately due any payable with interest at the annual rate of 18%
from the date when said payment should have been made until paid. Any information gained from such
statements or inspection shall be confidential and shall not be disclosed other than to carry out
the purposes hereof.

paid within ten (10) days after such payment is past due, Tenant shall pay Landlord interest on
such unpaid rent at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum computed from the date such rent
installment was due until the date actually paid.

ARTICLE V 

TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND UTILITIES

          A) The term “Impositions” shall mean all real estate taxes, duties or
assessments (special or otherwise), water and sewer rents, whether ordinary or extraordinary,
general or special, foreseen or unforeseen, of any kind and nature whatsoever,
which, at any time during the Lease Term, shall be assessed or levied, or be attributable in any
manner to the Entire Premises, or the rents receivable therefrom, or any part thereof or any use
thereon or any facility located therein or used in connection therewith, whether or not any of the
foregoing shall be a so-called “real estate tax” expressly excluding, however, any such items
arising directly or indirectly out of any act or omission of Landlord, any of Landlord’s
predecessors in title or any other person occurring prior to the commencement of the Term. From and
after the Initial Rent Due Date, Tenant shall pay when due all Impositions assessed, levied or
attributable to the Entire Premises and/or the Improvements on the Entire Premises.. All
Impositions or installments thereof payable with respect to the tax year in which this Lease shall
commence, and all Impositions or installments thereof with respect to the tax year in which this
Lease shall terminate, shall be pro-rated on a daily basis; provided, however, that assessments or
escape assessments assessed as a result of this Lease and/or the construction of Tenant
Improvements by Tenant shall not be prorated and shall be paid solely by Tenant; and provided
further that assessments attributable to Tenant Improvements made in the final year of the Lease
shall be paid solely by Tenant if Tenant demolishes the Tenant Building.

          B) In the event Tenant fails to pay such real property taxes as provided herein, Landlord
may, but shall not be required to, pay the same, and any amount so paid by Landlord shall

7

 

immediately thereafter become due to Landlord from Tenant as Additional Rent with interest thereon
at the rate of 18% per annum from the date of Landlord’s payment plus any fine, penalty, interest
or cost which is levied by the taxing authority for such late payment.

     5.02
Exceptions from Impositions; Charges in Lieu of Impositions.

          A) Nothing herein contained shall require Tenant to pay any estate, inheritance, succession,
capital levy, corporate franchise, gross receipts, transfer, or income tax of Landlord, nor shall
any of the same be deemed to be included within the term “Impositions” as defined herein.

          B) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article V, if at any time after the date of
this Lease the present method of taxation or assessment shall be changed so that in lieu of, as a
substitute for (whether in whole or in part) or as a supplement to (provided such supplemental tax
relates to real estate or revenues from real estate and not to other property or business as well)
the taxes now levied, assessed or imposed on real estate and buildings and Improvements thereon, a
tax shall be imposed, assessed or levied wholly or partly on the Rent, or a tax, assessment, levy
or charge, measured or based, in whole or in part, on the Premises or on the rents derived
therefrom, shall be imposed on Landlord, then Tenant shall pay taxes so measured or based only to
the extent that such taxes would be payable if the Premises were the only property of Landlord
subject to such taxes, or the income from operation of the Premises were Landlord’s only income,
as the case may be.

     5.03 Contest of Taxes. Tenant at its sole cost and expense may by appropriate legal
proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, contest the amount or validity or
application, in whole or in part, of any Imposition or lien therefor, or any other lien,
encumbrance or charge against the Premises arising from work done or materials provided to or for

ARTICLE VI 

INSURANCE

     6.01 Acquisition of Insurance Policies. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense,
procure and maintain, or cause to be procured and maintained, during the entire Term the insurance
described in this Section (or its then available equivalent), and shall name Landlord and any
other parties requested by Landlord as an additional insured.

     6.02 Types of Required Insurance. Tenant shall procure and maintain the following:

          A) Commercial General Liability Insurance. Commercial general liability insurance
insuring against injuries or damages to persons or property sustained in, on or about the Entire
Premises, Premises, Common Area and the appurtenances thereto, including the sidewalks and
alleyways adjacent thereto, with limits of liability no less than Five Million Dollars
($5,000,000) per occurrence and in the aggregate.

          B) Physical Property Damage Insurance. During the term hereof, Tenant shall keep
Tenant’s Building (excluding foundations, footings and underground improvements) as well as any
and all improvements on the Entire Premises and personal property insured in the name of Landlord
and Tenant against damage or destruction by fire and the perils commonly covered under the
extended coverage endorsement (with vandalism and malicious mischief coverage) including Builder’s
Risk but excluding earthquake and flood to the extent of not less than 100% of the full
replacement cost thereof less any deductible applicable to all of Tenant’s theatres insured under
a blanket policy. Tenant shall be responsible for determining the amount of fire and extended
coverage insurance to be maintained subject to Landlord’s consent, which consent is not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. The proceeds of such insurance in case of loss or damage shall
be held in trust and applied on account of the obligation of Tenant to repair and/or rebuild the
Leased Premises pursuant to the Article captioned “Damage Clause” to the extent that such proceeds
are required for such purpose. The insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this paragraph
may be covered under a so-called “blanket” policy covering other operations of Tenant and its
affiliates. Upon written request, Tenant shall name Landlord and any parties requested by Landlord
and the holder of the first mortgage on Tenant’s Building pursuant to a standard mortgage clause
with respect to the foregoing hazard insurance, provided such holder agrees with Tenant in writing
to disburse such insurance proceeds to Landlord for, and periodically during the course of, repair
and restoration of Tenant’s Building as set forth in this Lease.

     6.03 Terms of Insurance. The policies required under Section 6.02 shall name Landlord
as additional insured. Tenant shall provide to Landlord certificates of insurance and copies of
policies obtained by Tenant hereunder promptly upon the request of Landlord. Further, all policies
of insurance described in Section 6.02 shall:

9

 

          A) Be written as primary policies not contributing with and not in excess of coverage that
Landlord may carry.

          B) Contain an endorsement providing that the amount of coverage will not be reduced with
respect to Landlord except after twenty (20) days prior written notice from insurance company to
Landlord and such coverage may not be canceled with respect to Landlord except after thirty (30)
days’ prior written notice from insurance company to Landlord.

          C) Expressly provide that Landlord shall not be required to give notice of accidents or
claims and that Landlord shall have no liability for premiums.

          D) Be written by insurance companies having a Bests rating of “A-” or better, and such
insurance companies shall be reasonably acceptable to Landlord.

     6.04 Landlord’s Acquisition of Insurance. If Tenant at any time during the Term fails
to procure or maintain insurance required hereunder or to pay the premiums therefor, Landlord
shall have the right to procure the same and to pay any and all premiums thereon, and any amounts
paid by Landlord in connection with the acquisition of insurance shall be immediately due and
payable as additional rent, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the full amount so paid
and expended by Landlord. Any policies of insurance obtained by Landlord covering physical damage
to the Premises shall contain a waiver of subrogation against Tenant if and to the extent such
waiver is obtainable and if Tenant pays to Landlord on demand the additional costs, if any,
incurred in obtaining such waiver.

     6.05 Insurance Money and Other Funds Held in Trust. All insurance money or proceeds
received by the Tenant and/or Landlord shall be held in trust by Landlord and, except as provided
otherwise in Section 6.06, shall be applied as follows:

          First, for the purpose of defraying the cost of repairing, restoring, replacing and/or
rebuilding any structure or improvement on or in the Premises as required as provided in Section
6.06 hereof; and Second, if the damaged or destroyed structure or improvement is not repaired,
restored, replaced or rebuilt as hereinafter provided, said funds shall be disposed of as provided
in Section 6.06. Any of said funds in the hands of the Tenant at the end of the Term hereof shall
be disposed of as set forth in Section 6.06 (A).

     6.06 Application or Proceeds of Physical Damage Insurance. In case of any insurance
policies as described in Section 6.02 (B) (Physical Property Damage Insurance) the application of
insurance proceeds from damage or loss to property shall be determined in part in accordance with
Article XVI hereof and, in the event of any such repair, replacement, restoration or rebuilding,
the Tenant and Landlord shall apply the proceeds of the insurance collected to the cost of such
work upon certificate of satisfactory progress and/or completion in form satisfactory to Tenant
and Landlord by the licensed architect or engineer in charge of the work. Any amounts payable to
Tenant or any Affiliate of Tenant for work or services performed or materials provided as part of
any such repair, replacement, restoration or rebuilding shall not exceed competitive rates for
such services or materials and Tenant

10

 

shall, upon request of Landlord, make available to Landlord and its representatives all books and
records of Tenant relating to such work, services and materials. Upon completion of such repair,
replacement, restoration or rebuilding in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, and the
full payment therefor (so no liens, encumbrances or claims with respect thereto can be asserted
against the Premises, this Lease, Landlord or Tenant), any insurance proceeds received by the
Tenant or Landlord with respect to the damage or destruction involved, and not used, shall be and
remain the property of Landlord.

          A) Distribution of Unutilized Proceeds. At the termination of this Lease, such
insurance proceeds or condemnation awards received and held by the Tenant and not used for repair,
replacement or reconstruction (“Available Proceeds”), shall be disposed as follows:

               (1) First, Landlord shall be awarded an amount sufficient to remove any improvements not
repaired and to return the Property to the level of adjacent streets (“grade level”); and

               (2) Second, any remainder shall be paid to Landlord.

     6.07 Cooperation for Insurance Proceeds. Landlord and Tenant shall each cooperate with
the other in order to obtain the largest possible recovery and execute any and all consents and
other instruments and take all other actions reasonably necessary or desirable to effectuate the
same and cause such proceeds to be paid as hereinbefore provided. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Lease, neither party shall carry any insurance concurrent in coverage
and contributing in the event of loss with any insurance required to be furnished by the other
hereunder if the effect of separate insurance would be to reduce the protection or the payment to
be made under such party’s insurance or under the insurance required to be furnished by the other.

     6.08 Waiver of Right of Recovery. Landlord and Tenant hereby release each other from
any and all liability and responsibility to one another and, to the extent legally possible to do
so on behalf of their respective insurers and anyone claiming through or under either of them, by
way of subrogation or otherwise, hereby waive any liability for any and all loss or damage which
is of the type covered by fire and extended coverage insurance described in this Article,
irrespective of any negligence on the part of the other party which may have contributed to or
caused such loss. Every insurance policy carried by either party with respect to the Premises or
Tenant’s Building or land or improvements adjoining the Premises owned or leased by Landlord shall
(if it can be so written and does not result in a material additional premium) include provisions
denying to the insurer subrogation rights against the other party and any fee or leasehold
mortgage to the extent such rights have been waived by the insured prior to the occurrence of
damage or loss. If the waiver of subrogation otherwise is not effective, each party covenants that
it will obtain for the benefit of the other party an express waiver of any right of subrogation
which the insurer of such party may acquire against the other party by virtue of the payment of
any such loss covered by such insurance. In the event either party is by law, statute,
governmental regulation, economically unleasible or other factor beyond such party’s reasonable
control unable to obtain a waiver of the right of subrogation for the benefit of the other party,
then, during any period of time when such waiver is unobtainable, said party shall be deemed not
to have

11

 

released any subrogated claim of its insurance carrier against the other party, and during the same
period of time the other party shall be deemed not to have released the party who has been unable
to obtain such waiver from any claims they or their insurance carriers may assert which otherwise
would have been released pursuant to this Section. In the event that either party is unable to
obtain such waiver of the right of subrogation for the benefit of the other party, such party
shall, within thirty (30) days of receiving notice of such inability, give the other party written
notice of such inability.

immediately upon receiving notice) and shall be diligently completed in a good and workmanlike
manner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right and option (but not the

12

 

obligation) to undertake any such repair, maintenance or other items, in which event Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for all of the costs thereof within 30 days after Landlord’s request therefor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or denied or conditioned or delayed, take any remedial
action in response to the presence of any Hazardous Materials in, on, under or about the Premises
or enter into any settlement agreement, consent decree or other compromise with any governmental
agency with respect to any Hazardous Materials claims; provided, however, Landlord’s prior written
consent shall not be necessary in the event that the presence of Hazardous Materials in, on, under
or about the Premises (i) poses an immediate threat to the health, safety or welfare of any
individual or (ii) is of such nature that an immediate remedial response is necessary and it is not
possible to obtain Landlord’s consent before taking such action.

and timely fashion by licensed contractors acting under the supervision of a consulting
environmental engineer, (ii) pursuant to a detailed written plan for the Remedial Work approved by
any public or private agencies or persons with a legal or contractual right to such approval,
(iii) with such insurance coverage pertaining to liabilities arising out of the Remedial Work as
is then customarily maintained with respect to such activities, and (iv) only following receipt of
any required permits, licenses or approvals. The selection of the Remedial Work contractors, any
disclosures to or agreements with any public or private agencies or parties relating to Remedial
Work and the written plan for the Remedial Work (and any changes thereto) each shall be subject to
the other party’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
denied, conditioned or delayed. In addition, the party doing the Remedial Work shall submit to the
other party, promptly upon receipt or preparation, copies of any and all reports, studies,
analyses, correspondence, governmental comments or approvals, proposed removal or other remedial
work contracts and similar

15

 

information prepared or received by such party in connection with any Remedial Work or Hazardous
Materials relating to the Premises. In the event the party responsible therefor should fail to
commence or cause to be commenced in a timely fashion, or fail diligently to prosecute to
completion, such Remedial Work, the other party (following written notice) may, but shall not be
required to, cause such Remedial Work to be performed, and all costs and expenses thereof, or
incurred in connection therewith (i) in the case where Tenant is the responsible party, shall be
paid as additional rent due and payable within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s invoice therefor, or
(ii) in the case where Landlord is the responsible party, shall be paid by Landlord to Tenant
within thirty (30) days of Tenant’s invoice therefor, and if not timely paid by Landlord, in
additional to all other rights and remedies, Tenant shall have the right of offset against rent
which may become due. Neither party shall be obligated to perform Remedial Work under this Section
while it is contesting the application of any law, regulation or order, provided the other party is
not exposed to any additional liability, risk or damages. Obligations under this Section are solely
for the benefit of the parties, their successors, and assigns and any subtenants of this Lease, and
not for any other third parties.

          C)
Except for the obligations of Tenant as set forth in this
Article VIII, Landlord shall
exonerate, indemnify, pay and protect, defend and hold harmless (with counsel reasonably approved
by Tenant) and save Tenant and Tenant’s successors and assigns, and their directors, trustees,
beneficiaries, officers, shareholders, employees and agents (collectively, Tenant’s “Related

CONDEMNATION — EMINENT DOMAIN

     13.01 Definitions. The following definitions apply in construing provisions of this
Lease relating to a taking of or damage to all or any part of the Entire Premises or Improvements
or Parking or any interest in them by eminent domain or inverse condemnation:

          A) “Taking” means that taking or damaging, including severance damage, by eminent domain or
by inverse condemnation for any public or quasi-public use under any statute. The transfer of
title may be either a transfer resulting from the recording of a final order in condemnation or a
voluntary transfer or conveyance to the condemning agency or entity under threat of condemnation,
in avoidance of an exercise of eminent domain, or while condemnation proceedings are pending. The
Taking shall be considered to take place as of the date on which the right to compensation and
damages accrues under the law applicable to the Premises, unless the condemnor also takes actual
physical possession of the Premises or a part thereof, in which case the date of Taking for the
purposes of this Lease shall be the later of the date on which the right to compensation and
damages accrues or the date physical possession is taken by the condemnor.

21

 

          B) “Total Taking” means the Taking of the fee title to all the Premises and the Improvements
on the Premises, which shall be considered to include any offsite improvements effected by Tenant
to serve the Premises or the improvements or the parking on the Entire Premises.

          C) “Partial Taking” means any Taking (including any damaging) of a portion of the Premises,
the Common Area, or any Improvements or parking thereon which is not a Total Taking.

          D) “Notice of Intended Taking” means any notice or notification on which a reasonably prudent
man would rely and which he would interpret as expressing an existing intention of Taking as
distinguished from a mere preliminary inquiry or proposal. It includes, but is not limited to, the
service of a condemnation summons and complaint on a party to this Lease. The notice is considered
to have been received when a party to this Lease receives from the condemning agency or entity a
Notice of Intended Taking, in writing, containing a description or map of the Taking reasonably
defining the extent of the Taking.

          E) “Award” means compensation paid for the Taking, whether pursuant to judgment or by
agreement or otherwise.

     13.02 Notice to Other Party. The party hereto receiving any notice of the kinds
specified below shall promptly give the other party notice of the receipt, contents, and date of
the notice received:

          A) Notice of Intended Taking;

          B) Service of any legal process relating to condemnation of the Premises or improvements;

          C) Notice in connection with any proceedings or negotiations with respect to such a
condemnation; or

          D) Notice of intent or willingness to make or negotiate a private purchase, sale or transfer
in lieu of condemnation.

     13.03 Total Taking — Effect on Rent and Term. On a Total Taking, Tenant’s obligation
to pay Rent shall terminate on, and Tenant’s interest in the leasehold shall continue until, the
date of Taking, at which time this Lease shall terminate.

     13.04 Distribution of Award for Taking. On a Taking, all sums, including, but not
limited to, damages and interest awarded for the value of the real estate taken, shall be
apportioned and paid by the governmental body taking the Premises as follows:

          A) To Landlord, the amount awarded, if any for the Fair Market Value of all Land, buildings
and other improvements on the Entire Premises and all Severance Damages.

22

 

          B) To Tenant, the amount awarded, if any, for loss of goodwill, lost business, lost profits,
relocation expenses and fixtures; and

          C) To Landlord, any balance.

Tenant shall only be entitled to payments under this Section 13.04 out of amounts awarded by the
governmental body taking the Premises.

     13.05 Partial Taking — Rent Adjustments. On a Partial Taking, the Lease shall remain
in full force and effect covering the remaining Premises, except that the total Rent as otherwise
provided herein shall be reduced in the same ratio as the percentage of the area of the Premises
or the parking taken bears to the total area of the Premises or the parking.

     13.06 Partial Taking — Option to Terminate. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, in the event of a Partial Taking, if more than thirty-three percent (33%) of the
Building or thirty-three (33%) of the parking is taken by condemnation or sold under the threat of
condemnation, then Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes
title or possession, whichever occurs first, by delivering written notice to the other within ten
(10) days after receipt of written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within
ten (10) days after the condemning authority takes possession).

     13.07 Separate Tenant’s Award. In the event of a Taking, Tenant may make a separate
claim with respect to lost business, lost profits, goodwill, moving expenses, fixtures and
relocation expenses against the acquiring governmental Agency.

ARTICLE XIV 

DEFAULT

     14.01 Tenant’s Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a
default or event of default by Tenant:

          A) Failure to pay Annual Fixed Rent or any other monetary amount when due as provided herein,
if the failure continues for ten (10) days after first written notice has been given to Tenant by
Landlord;

          B) Failure to perform any of Tenant’s non-monetary obligations under this Lease; provided
however, Tenant shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of written notice by Landlord to cure
each such default. If Tenant cannot reasonably cure such default within said thirty (30) day
period, Tenant shall not be in default of this Lease if Tenant commences to cure the breach within
the thirty (30) day period and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the breach.

     14.02 Landlord’s Remedies Cumulative. Landlord shall have the following remedies set
forth in subsections (A) through (G) below if Tenant commits a default, except as provided in
Section 15.03.

23

 

These remedies are not exclusive and may be exercised concurrently or successively; they are
cumulative in addition to any remedies now or later allowed by law or equity:

          A) Bring Suit for Performance. Landlord may bring suit for the collection of the Rent
or other amounts for which Tenant is then in default, or for the performance of any other covenant
or agreement devolving upon Tenant, all without having to enter into possession or terminate this
Lease;

          B) Re-Entry Without Termination. Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1954.4,
Landlord may re-enter the Premises, by legal proceedings (or without legal proceedings if the
Premises have been abandoned), and take possession thereof, without thereby terminating this Lease,
and thereupon Landlord may expel all persons and remove all property therefrom, without becoming
liable to prosecution therefor, and relet the Premises or a portion or portions thereof, and
receive the rent therefrom, applying the same first to the payment of the reasonable expenses of
such re-entry and the reasonable cost of such reletting, and then to the payment of the Rent and
other amounts for which Tenant is then in default; the balance, if any, to be paid to Tenant, who,
whether or not the Premises are relet, shall remain liable for any deficiency. It is agreed that
the commencement and prosecution of any action by Landlord in forcible entry and detainer,
ejectment, or otherwise, or the appointment of a receiver, or any execution of any decree obtained
in any action to recover possession of the Premises, or any re-entry, shall not be construed as an
election to terminate this Lease unless Landlord shall, in writing, expressly exercise its election
to declare the Lease Term hereunder ended and to terminate this Lease, and unless this Lease be
expressly terminated, such re-entry or entry by Landlord, whether had or taken under summary
proceedings or otherwise, shall not be deemed to have absolved or discharged Tenant from any of its
obligations and liabilities for the remainder of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary or other provisions of this Section 14.02(B), Tenant shall have the right to sublet the
Premises, assign its interest in the Lease, or both, subject to Landlord’s prior right, during any
continuance of Tenant’s default, to relet the Premises or a portion or portions thereof.

          C) Termination of Lease and Lessee’s Right to Possession. No act by Landlord, other
than giving Tenant written notice of termination of this Lease, shall in fact terminate the Lease.
Upon termination of the Lease, neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any future rights or
obligations under the Lease except that Landlord shall have the right to recover from Tenant the
following:

               (1) The worth, at the time of the award, of the unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time
of termination of this Lease;

               (2) The worth, at the time of the award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would
have been earned after the date of termination of this Lease until the time of award exceeds the
amount of the loss of Rent that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided;

               (3) The worth, at the time of the award, of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the
balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the loss of Rent that Tenant
proves could have been reasonably avoided; and

24

 

               (4) Any other amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment
proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform his obligations under the Lease or which, in the
ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom.

          D) Definitions. As used herein, the following phrases shall be interpreted as
follows:

               (1) “The worth, at the time of the award,” as used in subsections 14.02(C)(1) and (2) above,
is to be computed by allowing interest at the maximum lawful rate. “The worth, at the time of the
award,” as referred to in subsection 14.02(C)(3) above, is to be computed by discounting the
amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award,
plus one percent (1%).

               (2) As used herein, the term “time of award” shall mean either the date upon which Tenant
pays to Landlord the amount recoverable by Landlord as hereinabove set forth or the date of entry
of any determination, order, or judgment of any court or other legally constituted body
determining the amount recoverable, whichever first occurs.

          E) Surrender. Promptly after notice of termination, Tenant shall surrender and vacate
the Premises and all improvements in broom-clean condition, and Landlord may re-enter and take
possession of the Premises and all remaining improvements and eject all parties in possession or
eject some and not others, or eject none. Termination under subsection 14.02(C) shall not relieve
Tenant from the payment of any sum due to Landlord or from any claim for damages previously
accrued or then accruing against Tenant.

          F) Appointment of Receiver. If Tenant defaults under Section 14.02(C), Landlord shall
have the right to have a receiver appointed to collect rent from any subtenants. Neither the
filing of a petition for the appointment of a receiver nor the appointment itself shall constitute
an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease.

          G) Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default. Landlord, at any time after Tenant is
in default under Section 14.01 herein, may cure the default at Tenant’s expense. If Landlord, at
any time, by reason of Tenant’s default, pays any sum or does any act that requires the payment of
any sum, the sum paid by Landlord shall be immediately reimbursed from Tenant to Landlord,
together with interest at eighteen percent (18%) per annum computed from the date of such
expenditure until the date of reimbursement by Tenant.

     14.03 Landlord’s Default.

          A) The occurrence of the following shall constitute a default by Landlord: Breach of any
provision of this Lease if the breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice by
Tenant; provided, however, that if the breach cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30)
day period, Landlord shall not be in default of this Lease if Landlord commences to cure the
breach within the thirty (30) day period and diligently and in good faith continues to cure the
default.

25

 

          B) Tenant, at any time after Landlord is in default under paragraph (A) above, may cure the
default at Landlord’s expense. If Tenant at any time, by reason of Landlord’s default, pays any
sum or does any act that requires the payment of any sum, the sum paid by Tenant shall be
immediately reimbursed by Landlord, together with interest at eighteen percent (18%) per annum
determined at the time the expenditure is made by Tenant computed from the date of such
expenditure until the date of reimbursement by Landlord. If Landlord fails to make such payment(s)
within fifteen (15) days after Tenant’s written demand, Tenant shall be entitled to offset any
amount due from Landlord against the next Rent payment due under this Lease.

     14.04 Waiver of Redemption. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of
redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being
dispossessed or removed from the Premises upon the termination of this Lease because of default by
Tenant hereunder.

     14.05 Dispute Resolution. Landlord and Tenant desire by provisions of this Section
14.05 to establish procedures to facilitate the informal and inexpensive resolution of any dispute
arising out of this Lease by mutual cooperation and without resort to litigation. To accomplish
this objective, Landlord and Tenant agree to follow the procedures set forth below if and when a
dispute arises between them under this Lease.

          A) Description of Dispute. The complaining party shall provide by notice a written
description of the alleged breach by the other party. This description shall explain the nature of
the complaint and the Lease provision(s) on which it is based. The complaining party shall also
set forth a proposed solution to the problem including a specific time frame within which the
parties must act. The party receiving the letter of complaint must respond in writing within ten
(10) days with an explanation, including references to the relevant parts of the Lease and a
response to the proposed solution. Within ten (10) days of receipt of this response, the parties
must meet and discuss options for resolving the dispute. The complaining party must initiate the
scheduling of the resolution meeting.

          B) Mediation. A settlement conference shall be held within thirty (30) days of the
unsuccessful resolution meeting or as soon as practical thereafter.

          C) Arbitration. With respect to disputes which the parties have been unable to
resolve informally or by mediation, the parties agree to submit the dispute for final and binding
arbitration if the dispute has not otherwise been settled. The parties agree that the arbitration
must be initiated within one (1) year after the date of the written description of the alleged
breach and that the failure to initiate arbitration within the one (1) year period constitutes an
absolute bar to the initiation of any proceedings. An arbitration shall be deemed initiated for
the purposes of this section by demand therefor being sent by certified mail to the other party,
which notice shall contain a description of the dispute, the amount involved and the remedies
sought. The parties shall have the right to representation by counsel throughout the arbitration
proceedings. Arbitration shall be conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association.

26

 

     14.06
Attorneys’ Fees. Should any action or proceeding, be commenced between the
parties to this Lease concerning said Premises, this Lease, or the rights and duties of either in
relation thereto, the party, Landlord, or Tenant, prevailing in such action or proceeding shall be
entitled, in addition to such other relief as may be granted in the action or proceeding, to a
reasonable sum as and for its attorneys’ fees therein which shall be determined by the
arbitrator(s) hearing such action or proceeding.

changes required to comply with applicable law, with the then prevailing construction practices
applicable to the Premises. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs in excess of Insurance
proceeds available All such work shall be carried on in accordance with Drawings prepared by a
licensed architect or architects approved by Landlord (acting reasonably) if such an architect is
reasonably required, given the scope and nature of the work. In disbursing insurance proceeds the

such changes to Landlord and obtaining Landlord’s approval thereof (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed).

destroyed), and, in any such event, the parties hereto are unable during a period of ninety (90)
days after the determination by Tenant with respect to such damage or destruction to agree in
writing on a construction program, then, at Tenant’s sole option, the Term shall end as of the date

extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay. Notwithstanding the foregoing, lack
of funds shall not be deemed to be a cause beyond the control of Tenant.

     17.15 Waiver. No term, covenant, or condition of this Lease can be waived except in
writing, signed by the party making the waiver, Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be. No waiver

than the default specified in the express waiver, and that only for the time and to the extent
therein stated. The acceptance by Landlord of Rent or partial Rent with knowledge of the breach of
any of the covenants of this Lease by Tenant shall not be deemed a waiver of any such breach. One
or more waivers of any breach of any covenant, term, or condition of this Lease shall not be
construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same covenant, term, or condition. The

been paid in advance, the amount of prepaid rent, and any other information with respect to this

benefit of the party requesting the certificate and any successor to the party requesting the
certificate, that this Lease is in full force and effect, and has not been modified except as may
be represented by the party requesting the certificate, and that rent and other charges have not
been paid for any period after date of the notice requesting the certificate.

     17.17 Number and Gender. Whenever the context requires the singular number, it shall
include the plural, the plural the singular, and the use of any gender shall include all genders.

     17.18 No Holding Over. Tenant shall have no right to holdover after the end of the
Term. Should Tenant or any Leasehold Mortgagee succeeding to the interest of Tenant hold over in
possession after the expiration date, such holding over shall not be deemed to extend the Lease or
renew this Lease; and Tenant shall pay a pro-rated daily amount equal to one hundred twenty
percent (120%) of the Annual Rent in effect immediately preceding the expiration date until Tenant
vacates the Premises.

     17.19 Mechanics Liens. Tenant shall discharge, by payment, bonding or otherwise, any
mechanics liens filed against the Premises or the Entire Premises in connection with Tenant’s work
and/or any alterations or other work done by or on behalf of Tenant in the Premises within thirty

directors of Landlord or stockholders, officers, directors or trustees of Tenant should such
parties be corporate entities,

33

 

     17.21 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s payment of
rent and other monetary obligations to Landlord under this Lease.

from time to time and where appropriate, of telecopied signatures in order to expedite the
transaction contemplated by this Lease, (ii) each intend to be bound by its respective telecopied
signature, (iii) are each aware that the other will rely on the telecopied signature, and (iv) each
acknowledge such reliance and waiver any defenses to the enforcement of the documents effecting the
transaction contemplated by this Lease based on a telecopied signature.

     17.23 Anti-Merger. The voluntary or otherwise surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a
mutual cancellation of this Lease shall not work a merger but shall at the option of Landlord
either:

          A) Terminate any existing subleases or subtenancies; or

          B) Operate as an assignment to Landlord (and assumption by Landlord) of any subleases or

obligations between the parties, as hereinafter provided;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto mutually agree that the Lease shall be amended as
follows:

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Minimum Monthly Rent be increased
by an amount that is more than fifteen percent (15%) of the
Minimum Monthly Rent payable before the adjustment date in question.

     B. Gross Sales

     The second paragraph of Section 4.02 is hereby deleted and in its place is inserted the
following paragraph:

     Gross Sales shall mean all box office receipts, including receipts from tickets or
gift certificates redeemed at the premises regardless of their point of sale, as well as
receipts from sale of goods, merchandise, beverages, food, vending machines and video

     Alternatively, Landlord may elect in its sole and absolute discretion to require
Tenant to demolish the Tenant-occupied improvements located on the Premises and
