(ii) The last sentence in the definition of Capital
Additions appearing in Article II of the Lease is hereby amended to read, in its
entirety, as follows:
"The Capital Projects shall be treated for all purposes of
this Lease as a `Capital Addition,' and all Project Costs
advanced, funded or accrued by Lessor on account thereof or

Costs" paid for by Lessor."
(iii) Upon the Completion Date, the term "Facility" as
defined in Article II of the Lease shall mean and include the existing Facility
together with the Capital Projects.
(iv) For purposes of the Lease, as hereby amended,
"Lessor's Personal Property" as defined in Article I of the Lease shall include
all Personal Property paid for or funded by Lessor as part of the Capital
Projects. At the request of Lessor, Lessee shall prepare a schedule of all
Personal Property paid for or funded by Lessor as part of the Project Costs and
the same shall be initialed by each of Lessor and Lessee and attached to
Exhibit B to the Lease as Schedule 1, and will thereafter form a part of the
Lease. Failure of either Lessor or Lessee to prepare and/or initial such
Schedule 1 shall not affect the definition of or what Personal Property
constitutes Lessor's Personal Property in accordance with the provisions of this
clause (iv).
3. MINIMUM RENT. Effective as the expiration of the first
Lease Year of the Fixed Term (i.e., February 28, 1997), Section 3.1.1 of the
Lease shall be amended to read, in its entirety, as follows:
"3.1.1 Minimum Rent.
"(i) Subject to upward adjustments as provided in
clauses (ii) and (iii) below, for the period from March 1,
1997, through the expiration of the Fixed Term, Lessee shall
pay to Lessor as `Minimum Rent' monthly, in advance on or
before the first day of each calendar month, an amount equal
to $20,562.50. Minimum Rent payable for any partial calendar
month at the end of the Term of this Lease shall be prorated
based upon a 30-day month and a 360-day year.
"(ii) Effective as of the Capital Projects Rent
Commencement Date, the monthly Minimum Rent payable pursuant
to clause (i) above shall be increased by an amount equal to
one-twelfth (1/12) of the product of (A) the applicable
Capital Projects Lease Rate in effect on the Capital Projects
Rent Commencement Date, times (B) the Total Project Cost. Such
monthly Minimum Rent shall be further increased from time to
time on the date of funding or accrual of any Project Costs by
Lessor following the Capital Projects
7
8
Rent Commencement Date by one-twelfth (1/12th) of the product
of (x) the amount of the particular payment, funding or
accrual by Lessor, times (y) the Capital Projects Lease Rate
applicable to such payment, funding or accrual. Monthly
Minimum Rent payable for any months during which such
increases are applicable shall be prorated based upon the
number of days for which the different rental amounts apply.
"(iii) If the rate in (y) below is greater than the
rate in (x) below, than as of the expiration of the tenth
(10th) Lease Year (i.e., February 28, 2006), the monthly
Minimum Rent then in effect shall be increased by an amount
equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the product of (A) the
positive difference between (x) 6.17% (i.e., the five-year
U.S. Treasury Note rate published in the Wall Street Journal
three (3) Business Days prior to the Commencement Date and
quoting the rate as of the immediately prior Business Day),
and (y) the five-year U.S. Treasury Note rate published in the
Wall Street Journal three (3) Business Days prior to the
expiration of the tenth (10th) Lease Year and quoting the rate
as of the immediately prior Business Day, times (B) the
Minimum Repurchase Price as of such date; provided, however,
that in no event shall the monthly Minimum Rent after any such
adjustment pursuant to this clause (iii) be less than One
Hundred Percent (100%) nor more than One Hundred Three Percent
(103%) of the monthly Minimum Rent in effect immediately prior
to such adjustment. If the five-year U.S. Treasury Note rate
is discontinued prior to four (4) Business Days prior to the
expiration of the tenth (10th) Lease Year, then such
calculation shall be made instead by reference to a substitute
rate selected by Lessor that is comparable with the five-year
U.S. Treasury Note rate, and such substitute rate shall be
compared to the five-year U.S. Treasury Note rate, published
in the Wall Street Journal as of the Commencement Date.
Similarly, if the Wall Street Journal is discontinued, a
substitute publication selected by Lessor shall be used.
"(iv) Following any changes in the monthly Minimum Rent
pursuant to this Lease, the parties shall execute an amendment
to this Lease in form similar to Exhibit C-2 attached hereto
(but with appropriate changes thereto) to confirm the monthly
Minimum Rent payable pursuant to this Section 3.1.1.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of Lessor to
prepare and/or the failure of Lessee to execute and deliver
any such amendment shall not affect Lessor's determination of
the monthly Minimum Rent payable under this Lease."
4. CAPITAL RENOVATION PROJECT. Section 9.3 of the Lease is
hereby amended to read, in its entirety, as follows:
"9.3 Capital Repairs to be Performed by Lessee. Lessee

5. CAPITAL PROJECTS; PERFORMANCE, COMPLETION AND FUNDING.
Without limiting any other obligation or liability of Lessee under the Lease
with respect to the Leased Property, the following shall apply with respect to
the Capital Projects and the construction/performance of the same:

total Project Costs exceed the Lessor's Maximum Cost, Lessee shall pay and shall
not be reimbursed for such excess. If and when total Project Costs exceed
Lessor's Maximum Cost, Lessee shall thereupon commence to pay to Lessor (rather

rate then permitted under applicable law) and continue to pay such interest
until the Capital Projects Rent Commencement Date. Said interest shall accrue on
a daily basis and be payable monthly in arrears based on a 360 day year, with
the first payment commencing on the last day of the month in which Lessor has
advanced to Lessee Lessor's Maximum Cost and thereafter shall continue on the
last day of each subsequent month until the Capital Projects Rent Commencement

not be entitled to any portion of the difference between Lessor's Maximum Cost
and total Project Costs.

with respect to payment of all applications for payment under the Construction

any defect in the materials or workmanship furnished by any contractor or of any
failure by any contractor to perform its obligations under its Construction

construct/perform the Capital Projects and to operate the Facility (including
the 32-Unit Capital Addition Project) for its Primary Intended Use.
(iii) PERFORMANCE OF DUTIES. Lessee agrees that,
subject to the performance by Lessor of its obligations under the Lease, as
hereby amended, Lessee shall act with prudence and diligence in performing its
duties and responsibilities under the Lease, as hereby amended, with respect to
the Capital Projects and in good faith in the best interests of Lessor.
(b) COMPLETION GUARANTEE.
(i) CONSTRUCTION AND COST GUARANTEE. Lessee
unconditionally guarantees to Lessor (A) the construction/performance of the

the payment without demand, and without right to reimbursement therefor, of all
development, construction and related costs of the Capital Projects incurred for
any reason whatsoever in excess of the Lessor's Maximum Cost.

any contingency the General Contractor shall default under a Construction
Contract, fail to commence, or abandon construction of, the Capital Projects, or
fail to complete the Capital

demand by Lessor, Lessee shall assume all responsibility for and control over
the construction, performance and completion of the Capital Projects and shall
cause the Capital Projects to be fully completed in accordance with the Lease,
as hereby amended, on or before the Outside Date, other than Punch List Items.
If Lessee fails to complete the Capital Projects in accordance with the Plans
prior to the Outside Date other than the Punch List Items, Lessor, at Lessor's
option, shall have the right to complete the Capital Projects in accordance with
the Plans and expend such sums as Lessor reasonably deems proper in order so to
complete the Capital Projects. The amount of any and all expenditures made by
Lessor pursuant to this clause (ii) which, when combined with all Project Costs
previously funded by Lessor, are in excess of Lessor's Maximum Cost, shall be
immediately due and payable by Lessee to Lessor as an Additional Charge,
together with interest thereon from the date of such expenditure to the date
paid by Lessee at a daily rate equal to Two Percent (2%) above the Prime Rate
(but in no event greater than the maximum rate of interest then permitted by
law). Upon any assumption by Lessor of the obligation to complete the Capital
Projects as provided herein, Lessee shall forthwith surrender and deliver to
Lessor, or Lessor's designee, any funds which have been received from Lessor but

pursued and completed as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than
sixty (60) days after the Outside Date.
(c) COOPERATION BY LESSOR. Lessor shall cooperate with
Lessee as may be requested by Lessee in furtherance of the
construction/performance of the Capital Projects as specified in the Lease, as

completion of the Capital Projects, and the balance shall be paid with the final
advance of funds by Lessor under this Amendment following the Completion Date.
For purposes of this clause (i), the phrase "commences construction/performance"
shall mean the date Lessee first commences physical site work in connection with
the construction/performance of the Capital Projects. Such project coordination
fee is included within Project Costs and is a line item on the Project Budget.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Lessee be entitled to receive
any portion of the project coordination fee if the payment of the same would
cause the total of all Project Costs funded or accrued by Lessor under this
Amendment to exceed Lessor's Maximum Cost.
(ii) CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION FEE. Lessor shall
accrue in arrears from and after the date hereof until the Completion Date, a
monthly construction administration fee in the form of an allowance equal to One

the administration of the construction/performance of the Capital Projects and
the making of advances hereunder. Such allowance is included within the Project
Costs and is a line item on the Project Budget.
(iii) TWO (2) POINT FEE. On the date hereof Lessor
shall receive an allowance for points hereunder in an amount equal to Two
Percent (2%) of Lessor's Maximum Cost. Such amount is included within the
Project Costs and is a line item on the Project Budget.
(e) OTHER COVENANTS OF LESSEE.
(i) CONSTRUCTION/PERFORMANCE OF THE CAPITAL PROJECTS.
Construction/performance of Capital Projects will be prosecuted by Lessee in
accordance with the Plans in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance
with sound building and engineering practices and all applicable Legal
Requirements. All materials, fixtures or articles used in the
construction/performance of the Capital Projects, or to be used in the
operation thereof shall be substantially in accordance with the Plans as
prepared by the Architect and approved by Lessor. Lessee shall ensure that no
asbestos or asbestos-containing materials or other Hazardous Substances will be

(A) Lessee may, without obtaining the prior
written approval of Lessor, change the Plans, permit the Plans to be changed or

given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of Lessor.
(B) Lessee will at its sole cost and expense and
not as part of the Project Costs correct or cause to be corrected any defect in
the Capital Projects or any departure from the Plans not approved by Lessor or

appropriate municipality.
All such insurance maintained or caused to be maintained by
Lessee pursuant to clauses (A), (B) and (D) of this clause (iv) shall name
Lessor as an additional insured. All insurance maintained or caused to be
maintained by Lessee pursuant to clause (A) of this clause (iv) shall name

existence and without regard to the amount of the bond required pursuant to
Paragraph 5(e)(v) above, Lessee shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold
harmless, Lessor from and against, and reimburse Lessor for, any and all
actions, causes of action, obligations, damages, penalties, suits, debts,
losses, costs, expenses, liabilities, claims or demands whatsoever, at law or in

(A) any misstatements or inaccuracies made by
or on behalf of Lessee contained within or other matters arising out of any
applications for building, foundation, grading or other permits and/or
authorizations necessary for the construction/performance of the Capital
Projects, including those required for the use and operation of the Facility for
its Primary Intended Use, whether filed or submitted to the applicable
Governmental Authority in the name of Lessor or Lessee; or

under Paragraph 5(e)(v). Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this clause (vi), Lessee shall have no obligation to protect,

Lessor's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(vii) LIENS ON MATERIALS. Lessee shall not at any
time during the performance of the work, make or cause to be made, or permit the
General Contractor or any other contractor to make, any contract for materials
or equipment of any kind or nature whatsoever to be incorporated in or to become
a part of the Leased Property, title to which is not good or which is subject to
any lien or title retention arrangement other than inchoate mechanic's liens.
Lessee will deliver to Lessor, on demand, true copies of any contracts, bills of
sale, statements, receipted vouchers, or agreements, under which Lessee claims
title to any materials, fixtures, or articles used in the
construction/performance of the Capital Projects.
(viii) STORAGE OF MATERIALS. Lessee will cause all
materials acquired or furnished in connection with the construction/performance
of the Capital Projects, but not affixed or incorporated into the Leased
Property, to be stored at the Leased Property or at bonded locations approved by
Lessor, in each case under adequate safeguards to minimize the possibility of
loss, theft, damage or commingling with other materials or projects. Lessee will
employ suitable means to protect from theft or vandalism the Leased Property and
all tools and building materials stored on the Leased Property.
(ix) INSPECTIONS. Without limiting any of Lessor's
rights under the Lease, at any time during regular business hours, Lessor and/or
its representatives will be permitted to enter upon the Leased Property and any
other location where materials for the Capital Projects are being stored to
inspect the same and all materials to be used in the construction/performance
thereof, and to examine all detailed plans and shop drawings which
16
17
are or may be kept at the construction site, provided that in so doing, Lessor
shall not unreasonably interfere with the construction/performance of the
Capital Projects. Upon request, Lessor will be furnished with reasonable
information regarding the construction/performance of the Capital Projects from
Lessee, Architect, General Contractor and any other contractors or
subcontractors.
(x) NOTICES. Lessee will furnish Lessor with a copy of
any (A) notice or claim made by any Governmental Authority pertaining to the
Leased Property, (B) any notice of any termination, late payment or other
material aspect of any Construction Contract involving more than Five Thousand

(A) Lessee shall expend all the proceeds of each
advance hereunder for Project Costs in amounts and for the purposes provided in
the Project Budget and for no other purpose whatsoever.
(B) Lessee will promptly advise Lessor if and
when (1) Project Costs shall exceed or appear likely to exceed the Lessor's
Maximum Cost or (2) Project Costs with respect to any particular item in the
Project Budget shall exceed or appear likely to exceed the amount specified for
any such item in the Project Budget, and shall give Lessor sufficiently detailed
information with respect thereto.
(C) If, in the sole good faith judgment of
Lessor, it appears at any time or from time to time that the Remaining Funds
will be insufficient to complete the construction/performance of the Capital
Projects substantially in accordance with the Plans on or before the Outside
Date, and to pay for all Project Costs incurred in connection with such
construction/performance, or if any other expenses are required for such
completion which were not scheduled in the Project Budget, Lessor may request
that Lessee demonstrate that the Remaining Funds are sufficient for such
completion and payment. If Lessee does not so demonstrate to Lessor's reasonable
satisfaction within five (5) Business Days of receipt of Lessor's request to do
so, then Lessee shall deposit with Lessor additional monies as shall, in the
reasonable good faith judgment of Lessor, when added to the Remaining Funds, be
sufficient to complete and/or pay for the construction/performance of the
Capital Projects. Such additional monies of Lessee shall be applied for payment
of costs prior to Lessor advancing any additional funds under the Lease, as
hereby amended, and Lessor shall have no obligation to advance any such
additional funds until the additional monies deposited with Lessor shall have
been so applied. Lessee, in demonstrating whether the Remaining Funds are
sufficient to complete the Capital Projects, may offset any savings caused by
the actual amount of expenses being less than budgeted against amounts of other
items for which actual costs were in excess of those budgeted.

(xii) ASSIGNMENT OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS. Upon the
first to occur of an Event of Default or the Completion Date, and at the request

prior to the Outside Date; or
(B) Lessee fails to satisfy any condition to an

discretion, in other budget line items remain unused. Lessor shall issue checks
payable to, or otherwise advance funds to, Lessee, the payees designated in a
Request for Advance or jointly to Lessee and such payees, as Lessor shall
reasonably determine. Advances of funds to such payees or jointly to Lessee and
