Heading: The original lease and its amendments

Text: ¶ 3. On August 20, 1992, the Port Authority leased land and berth space to Gulfside so that it could operate a dockside gaming and entertainment facility. On October 28, 1992, the lease was amended to approve an acquisition by Stanley B. MacDonald of a majority interest in Gulfside Casino, Inc. On May 12, 1993, the lease was amended again to allow the Copa to move from what was to be its permanent site at the southwest end of the East Pier to a site at the northwest corner of the main ship harbor, an area commonly referred to as the Horseshoe. In this second amendment, Gulfside also agreed to acquire the leasehold interests of two other tenants at the Horseshoe location. On June 21, 1994, the parties executed a third amendment to reflect the change in lessee from Gulfside Casino, Inc., to Gulfside Casino Partnership. The third lease amendment also recites certain expenditures made by Gulfside in acquiring the adjoining leaseholds of the two other entities at the Horseshoe location.
