A. On November 9, 1994, AMIT and the Insignia Parties entered into a
Settlement Agreement (the "Settlement Agreement").
B. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, and as a condition thereof,
the parties agreed that the "Effective Date" of the settlement described in the
Settlement Agreement must occur by March 1, 1995 (the "Settlement Deadline").
C. The parties now enter into this Amendment to Settlement Agreement
for the purpose of extending the Settlement Deadline.
NOW, THEREFORE, based upon the foregoing Recitals, the parties agree as
follows:
1. Paragraph 3 of the Settlement Agreement is amended as follows:
"3. STAY OF LITIGATION:
A. Upon execution of this Settlement Agreement by all parties,
AMIT and the Insignia Parties shall immediately file a joint
application in the Action notifying the Court that a settlement has
been reached among such parties, contingent upon (i) the occurrence of
the Effective Date;

3
and (ii) AMIT obtaining the Imperial Consent by December 1, 1994; and
requesting the Court to stay the Action as among the parties to this
Settlement Agreement who are also parties to the Action pending the
completion of the Angeles Plan confirmation process. If the Angeles
Plan is confirmed embodying the settlement contained in the
Angeles/AMIT Agreement and the Effective Date occurs by March 31, 1995,
and the Imperial Consent is obtained prior to December 1, 1994, then
following the Effective Date, the Action will be dismissed as among the
parties to this Settlement Agreement and the parties agree to cause
their respective counsel of record in the Action to execute and file a
request for dismissal (the "Dismissal Request"). Such dismissal shall
be without an award of costs and shall provide that each parties shall
bear his or its own costs of suit and attorneys' fees.
B. In the event that the State Court does not approve the
request for a stay of the Action, then the parties hereto will
immediately file the Dismissal Request dismissing (the "Contingent
Dismissal") their claims against each other in the Action without
prejudice to refiling of said claims if the Effective Date does not
occur by March 31, 1995, or the Imperial Consent is not obtained prior
to December 1, 1994. Such Contingent Dismissal shall be without an
award of costs and shall provide that each party
3

shall bear his or its own costs of suit and attorneys' fees. In the
event of a Contingent Dismissal, the parties agree that all statutes of
limitation and other delay defenses with respect to any claims which
they have or may have against each other related to the Action are and
shall be tolled and suspended during the period from July 23, 1993,
when the Action was filed, to and including April 15, 1995.
C. If the Effective Date does not occur by March 31, 1995, or
the Imperial Consent is not obtained prior to December 1, 1994, and
unless the parties hereto agree in writing to the contrary, the
settlement outlined herein, except this paragraph, will be null and
void and the stay of the Action will be lifted.
