IFG and BDC desire to amend the Master Agreement as hereinafter set forth.
Accordingly, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth in this Amendment, IFG and BDC agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Defined terms used in this Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Master Agreement, unless otherwise expressly provided herein. The lease contemplated by this Amendment is hereinafter referred to as the “Substitute Lease.” The premises which would be leased pursuant to the Substitute Lease are hereinafter referred to as the “leased premises.”
2. Surrender of Retail Lease. IFG hereby absolutely and unconditionally surrenders its right to lease space in the Retail Facility as contemplated by Section 7.1 of the Master Agreement. Accordingly, Section 7.1 of the Master Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety.

In exchange for the surrender by IFG of its right to the Retail Lease, BDC hereby agrees to lease 1000 square feet of rentable area, or less at IFG’s option, in the Retail Facility to a non-profit organization, pursuant to the Substitute Lease, upon and subject to the following terms and conditions:
3.1 Tenant. The tenant shall be a non-profit charitable organization qualified under Section S01(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code selected by IFG, which organization and the use to be made by it of the leased premises shall be subject to the approval of BDC, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed (as so selected and approved, the “Approved Tenant”). IFG shall make such selection and give written notice thereof to BDC within two (2) years after the date hereof, failing which BDC and IFG shall have no further obligation or liability under this Section 3.
3.2 Premises. The leased premises shall be at a mutually acceptable location, suitable for the use and purposes intended by the Approved Tenant, on the concourse level (that is, lower level 1), level 3 or level 4 of the Retail Facility.

3.4 Form of Lease. The Substitute Lease shall be directly between BDC and the Approved Tenant and the first negotiating draft of such lease will be prepared by BDC. Although references are made in Section 3.5 of this Amendment to BDC’s form Shopping Center Lease captions and section numbers, nothing contained herein shall bind either party with respect to any provisions of the Substitute Lease except to the extent specifically provided in this Amendment.
