3. SECTION 3.14 Section 3.1.4 shall be deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following:
3.1.4 CPI ADJUSTMENTS. For each Lease Year during the Term beginning

Revenues Second Break Point (each as defined in EXHIBIT A and together, the

(each as defined in EXHIBIT A and together, the "ANNUAL FOOD AND BEVERAGE

POINTS), then included in the Revenues Computation shall be increased as
follows:
(a) For the Lease Year commencing January 2000, and for each Lease
Year thereafter during the Term, the average CPI for the immediately
preceding twelve (12) months immediately preceding the new Lease Year (the
"MEASUREMENT DATE") shall be divided by the average CPI for the twelve (12)
months in the prior calendar year and such number shall be expressed as a
percentage and such percentage shall be increased by one (1) percent (the
"FACTOR") (for example, if the percentage is 3.2%, then the Factor shall be
4.2%); provided, however, (i) for the Lease Years commencing January 2002
and January 2008 the term "Factor" shall be deemed to be the product of (x)
the Factor and (y) 371/364, and (ii) for the Lease Years commencing January
2003 and January 2009 the term "Factor" shall be deemed to be the product
of (x) the Factor and (y) 364/371;
(b) The new Minimum Rent for the Lease Year commencing January 2000
and for each Lease Year thereafter shall be the product of (x) the Minimum
Rent in effect in the most recently ended Lease Year and (y) the Factor;
(c) The new Annual Room Revenues Break Points in the Revenues
Computation for the Lease Year commencing January 2000 and for each Lease

Points in effect in the most recently ended Lease Year and (y) the Factor;
(d) The new Annual Food and Beverage Sales Break Points in the
Revenues Computation for the Lease Year commencing January 2000 and for
each Lease Year thereafter shall be the product of (x) the Annual Food and
Beverage Sales Break Points in effect in the most recently ended Lease Year
and (y) the Factor;
(e) The new Annual Telephone Revenues Break Points in the Revenues
Computation for the Lease Year commencing January 2000 shall be the product

(f) The new Annual Other Income Break Points in the Revenues
Computation for the Lease Year commencing January 2000 and for each Lease

Adjustments calculated as set forth above in the Minimum Rent, the
Annual Room Revenues Break Points, the Annual Food and Beverage Sales Break
Points, the Annual Telephone Revenues Break Points, and the Annual Other
Income Break Points, shall be effective on the first day of each Lease Year
to which such adjusted amounts apply. If Rent is paid prior to the
determination of the amount of any adjustment to Minimum Rent, the Annual
Room Revenues Break Points, the Annual Food and Beverage Sales Break
Points, the Annual Telephone Revenues Break Points, and the Annual Other
Income Break Points applicable for such period, whether because of a delay
in the publication of the CPI for the Measurement Date or because of any
other reason, payment adjustments for any shortfall in or overpayment of
Rent paid shall be made with the first Minimum Rent and Participating Rent
payments due after the amount of the adjustments are determined. If (1) a
significant change is made in the number or nature (or both) of items used
in determining the CPI, or (2) the CPI shall be discontinued for any
reason, the Bureau of Labor Statistics shall be requested to furnish a new
index comparable to the CPI, together with information which will make
possible a conversion to the new index in computing the adjusted Minimum
Rent, the Annual Room Revenues Break Points, the Annual Food and Beverage
Sales Break Points, the Annual Telephone Revenues Break Points, and the
Annual Other Income Break Points hereunder. If for any reason the Bureau
of Labor Statistics does not furnish such an index and such information,
the parties will instead mutually select, accept and use such other index
or comparable statistics on the cost of living in various cities that is
computed and published by an agency of the United States of America or a
responsible financial periodical of recognized authority. In no event
shall the Minimum Rent, the Annual Room Revenues Break Points, the Annual
Food and Beverage Sales Break Points, the Annual Telephone Revenue Break
Points, or the Annual Other Income Break Points be reduced as a result of
any changes in the CPI or changes to the calculation of CPI.
3. EXHIBIT A. Exhibit A shall be deleted in its entirety and
replaced with Exhibit A annexed hereto and made a part hereof.
4. DEFINED TERMS. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein
shall have the definitions set forth in the Lease.
5. NO OTHER AMENDMENT. Except as expressly modified by this
Amendment, all other terms and conditions of the Lease are hereby ratified
and remain unchanged.
6. FULL FORCE AND EFFECT. The parties hereto certify and
acknowledge that (a) the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, is in full
force and effect; (b) neither party is in default of any of the terms and
conditions set forth in the Lease; and (c) the Lease, as amended hereby, is
enforceable in accordance with its terms.
