each of the parties hereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which
is hereby acknowledged, Presidio and Xxxxxx Management hereby agree as follows:
1. From and after the date hereof, Xxxxxx Management will provide such
facilities within the Office Premises as reasonably requested by the Trust and
its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event shall Xxxxxx Management be required to acquire any
additional facilities to provide facilities pursuant to this Agreement.
2. Xxxxxx Management will be reimbursed by the Trust on the basis of an
allocation of the costs for such facilities based on the cost accounting method
used by the Trust and its subsidiaries and Xxxxxx Management, respectively. For
purposes of determining the costs allocated with respect to Presidio's use of
space within the Office Premises, such costs will be based on the amounts
payable, including all occupancy costs, under the Concession Agreement.

3. Each quarter Xxxxxx Management shall prepare a schedule of the allocated
costs that Xxxxxx Management has incurred on behalf of the Trust and the Trust
shall pay to Xxxxxx Management the amount owed. Once each year after the close
of the year, the parties shall prepare a schedule of all of the costs and
expenses as allocated for such year which schedule, including supporting records
and work papers, shall be subject to review by independent auditors appointed by
the Trust to review the annual schedule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event that the parties shall disagree as to the appropriate allocation of such
costs and expenses, the decision of the Trust's independent auditors with
respect to the appropriate allocation of costs shall be final. As soon as
practicable after the annual schedule of costs has been determined as aforesaid
for any year, the party, if any, having a debit balance for such year, promptly
shall pay any amounts owed for such year to the other party.
4. This Agreement shall be for an initial term ending on December 31, 1999
and thereafter shall continue on a year to year basis. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated by either party, without penalty,
upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice as of December 31 of
any year.
5. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this
sentence, may not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived, nor may consent
to departures therefrom be given, without the written consent of Xxxxxx
Management and the Trust, as approved by a majority of the trustees of the Trust
who are not employees, officers or affiliates of a lessee of the Trust.
6. Any obligation or liability whatsoever of the Trust which may arise at
any time under this Agreement or any obligation or liability which may be
incurred by it pursuant to any other instrument, transaction or undertaking
contemplated hereby shall be satisfied, if at all, out of the Trust's assets
only. No such obligation or liability of the Trust shall be personally binding
upon, nor shall resort for the enforcement thereof be had to, the property of
any of its shareholders, trustees, officers, employees or agents (solely as a
result of their status as shareholders, trustees, officers, employees or
agents), regardless of whether such obligation or liability is in the nature of
contract, tort or otherwise.
