(c) Section 8.13(f) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following text at
the end of such Section:
“Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything to the contrary contained in
Sections 8.13(a) or 8.13(b), in the event the Arden Replacement Property is financed

Property owned by an indirect Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Trizec, such Subsidiary
shall be released as of the applicable Release Date from its obligations under the
Subsidiaries Guaranty, in each case without any further action on the part of any
party hereto, and (iii) so long as such financing or any refinancing of such Real
Estate Asset is outstanding, neither Trizec nor the Borrower shall be obligated to
cause such direct Subsidiary of Trizec that owns, directly or indirectly, such Real
Estate Asset to be or become a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Subsidiaries Guaranty
pursuant to this Section 8.13(f).”
(d) Section 9.04 (a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following text at
the end of such Section:
“; provided, further, that the Interim Facility Pledge shall not be
considered to be payment guaranties as such term is used in the immediately

(e) Clause (b) of Section 9.07 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read in its
entirety as follows:
“(b) any agreements governing any Secured Indebtedness permitted under Section 9.01

limitation shall only be effective against the equipment, machinery or materials
financed thereby, or in the case of such 9.01 (k), (A) the Property subject to such
Liens and (B) if such Property is the equity interests in the Interim Borrower, the
assets owned by the Interim Borrower and its Subsidiaries.”
(f) Section 9.10 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
“9.10 Consolidated Total Indebtedness as a Percentage of Consolidated Total
Asset Value. Trizec will not permit its Consolidated Total Indebtedness on any
date to exceed an amount which is 65% of the Consolidated Total Asset Value of
Trizec as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of Trizec;
provided that in determining such Consolidated Total Asset Value, such determination
shall be made on a pro forma basis to give effect to any sales and acquisitions of
Real Estate Assets effected after the last day of any such fiscal quarter and on or
prior to the date of any determination pursuant to this Section 9.10 as if such sale
or acquisition was consummated on the last day of the most recently ended fiscal
quarter.”
(g) Section 9.12 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
-2-

(h) Section 9.13 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
“9.13 Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. Trizec will not permit its

1.40:1.00 on any date on or prior to the original Maturity Date and (y) 1.50:1.00 on
any date after the original Maturity Date.”
(i) Section 9.15 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by substituting a comma for the
word “and” immediately before clause (v) of such Section and adding the following text at the end
of such Section:
“and (vi) restrictions of the type described in this Section 9.15 that are imposed
by the credit documents governing the Interim Facility on (x) the Interim Borrower
and its direct and indirect Subsidiaries and (y) Holdings (but in the case of
Holdings, only insofar as such restrictions are limited to the Interim Borrower, its
direct and indirect Subsidiaries, their respective assets, and the equity interests
in the Interim Borrower pledged by Holdings pursuant to the Interim Facility
Pledge).”
(j) Clause (v) of the definition of “Borrowing Base Property” in Section 11.01 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by substituting a comma for the word “or” immediately prior to clause

mean the aggregate amount of all Consolidated Total Indebtedness of such Person at
such time (including, without limitation, all outstanding Obligations and all
Unsecured Indebtedness in the form of payment guaranties of Secured Indebtedness)
that is not Secured Consolidated Total Indebtedness; provided,
however, that solely for the purpose of calculating the Borrowing Base
Amount, Unsecured Consolidated Total Indebtedness of Trizec shall not include (i)
any Indebtedness incurred under the Interim Facility, including, without limitation,
any payment guaranties thereof and pledges providing security therefor, and (ii) up
to $100,000,000 of other Unsecured Indebtedness incurred at any time by Trizec (but
not any other Credit Party) under payment guaranties by it of the
-3-
Secured Consolidated Total Indebtedness of its Subsidiaries for borrowed money
(excluding payment guaranties of the Interim Facility).
(l) The definition of “Unsecured Indebtedness” in Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement is
hereby amended by adding the following proviso at the end of such definition:
“; provided, however, that solely for purposes of the last paragraph
of Section 9.04, Unsecured Indebtedness shall not include the Interim Facility”.
(m) Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting the definitions of
“Consolidated Total Indebtedness Election Notice” and “Substantial Acquisition” in their entirety
and (ii) inserting the following new definitions in appropriate alphabetical order:
“‘Arden Replacement Property’ shall mean the Real Estate Asset commonly known as 0000

Arden Realty Limited Partnership, which term loan may be (i) guaranteed by Trizec and each
Subsidiary of the Interim Borrower that directly or indirectly owns the assets of the Interim
Borrower and (ii) secured by a pledge (the “Interim Facility Pledge”) of Holding’s direct or
indirect equity interests in the Interim Borrower.”
“‘Interim Facility Pledge’ shall have the meaning provided in the definition of
‘Interim Facility’.”
(n) Exhibit L to the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the text of footnote 3 of
Annex II thereof and replacing such footnote with the following footnote:
“Less (i) the Indebtedness incurred under the Interim Facility, including, without
limitation, any payment guaranties thereof and pledges providing security therefor
and (ii) up to $100,000,000 of other Unsecured Indebtedness incurred at any time by
Trizec (but not any other Credit Party) under payment guaranties by it of the
Secured Consolidated Total Indebtedness of its Subsidiaries for borrowed money
(excluding payment guaranties of the Interim Facility)”.
