the elements, act of God or other calamity; accident not caused by the
negligence of lessee; act of omission or commission of the lessor or those

performance by lessee shall immediately be due from lessor to lessee; and lessee
shall have the right to deduct the amount thereof from rentals due or thereafter
becoming due to lessor hereunder,
-4-
and such deduction shall not constitute a default in the payment of rent. The
performance by lessee of lessor's covenants shall not release the lessor from
its continuing obligation to perform same and shall not constitute a waiver by
lessee of any other remedies it may have in law or equity by reason of said
default by lessor. Lessor shall have the same rights relative to default by the
lessee and may xxxx the lessee for payment.
6. It is covenanted and agreed by and between the parties hereto that
all trade and office fixtures, machinery and equipment heretofore built or
placed in or upon said premises by the lessee or its predecessors while

automobiles are placed for loading and unloading, such space or room may be used
at all times for the storage of automobiles.
10. If the lessee or any subtenant of the lessee shall hold over after
the expiration of the original term or any extension thereof, such holding over
unless expressly so agreed shall not be construed as an implied renewal but as a
month to month tenancy.
11. Intentionally omitted

waives the service of any notice in writing of intention to re-enter, as
provided for in any law of the State of New York, except as provided in
paragraph 3 hereof.
24. It is expressly understood and agreed that in case the demised
premises shall be deserted or vacated, or if default be made in the payment of

Gentlemen:
Reference is made to our lease with you dated 9-11-68, amended 10-12-70
covering our Hickory Farms Cheese Store office and warehouse space located at
the Genesee Valley Regional Market. In addition to your tenant Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxxx,
Ltd., we have four other corporations which when combined with Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxxx,
Ltd. presently operate a total of 21 Hickory Farms Cheese Stores in 4 states. To
simplify our administrative and record keeping burdens and in order to
consolidate our financial strength, we have decided to merge all five of our
operating corporations into a new corporation formed for this purpose to be
known as Hickory Farms Sales Corp. We have scheduled this proposed merger to be
---------------------------------
effective as of the close of our fiscal year which will be July 1, 1972.
Inasmuch as the proposed merger simply involves the consolidation of existing
corporations, it will not effect a change in overall ownership or control of
these entities. Based upon the combined balance sheets of the five corporations,
it is anticipated that after giving effect to the proposed merger, Hickory Farms
Sales Corp. will have a net worth in excess of $500,000.00. As a landlord, this
will significantly enhance the financial responsibility of your Tenant.
The proposed merger will effect, by operation of law, an assignment of our
rights under the above lease to Hickory Farms Sales Corp. We are furnishing you
this information and writing this letter to you concerning the transaction to
get whatever consent, if any, which our lease may require to the transactions
outlined in this letter. Please sign the enclosed copy of this letter and return
it to us as evidence of your approval. Inasmuch as we are scheduling an
effective date for the transaction of July 1, 1972, your prompt attention to
this matter will be most sincerely appreciated.

shall be reduced by the total cost of the proposed and approved improvements
in the addition to Shed 4 in the amount of $14,340.00, divided by the 129
month term set out in this Addendum, resulting in a reduction from $1395.00
to $200.00 per month. Therefore, equal monthly rental installments for

to renew the term of the Lease of the Premises described in "Schedule B"
annexed hereto, sometimes referred to as "Shed 4," upon the terms set forth

hereby extend the term of the Lease through March 31, 1988, to coincide with

related to the increase in the Department of Labor Cost of Living Index for
the United States as a whole from the commencement of the prior five year
option period (April 1, 1978) to the end of said period (March 31, 1983). The
amount of increase in the annual rental shall be computed as follows, but
shall in no event exceed twenty percent (20%) of the annual rental paid during
any one year of the prior five (5) year option period:
Annual Rental During Cost of Living Index at March 31, 1983
5 Year Option Period x Minus Cost of Living Index at April 1, 1978
-------------------------------------------
Cost of Living Index at April 1, 1978
Rental paid pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph is to be paid in
addition to the rental set out in Paragraph 3 hereof for
-4-
the premises described on "Schedule A," and shall be paid in equal monthly
installments in the manner set forth in the Lease.
5. Tenant shall have the option to extend the Lease of the premises
described on "Schedules A and B" upon the terms of the Lease and this Addendum,
from April 1, 1988 through March 31, 1993. During said renewal period annual
rental for the premises described on "Schedule A" shall be $16,740.00, with
the addition of an adjustment, not to exceed twenty percent (20%) of
$16,740.00, the aforesaid annual rental figure, based on the increase
in the Bureau of Labor Statistics Cost of Living Index between April 1, 1977
and March 31, 1988, and annual rental for the premises described on "Schedule
B" shall be the annual rental for the prior five (5) year option period,
adjusted by an amount, not to exceed twenty percent (20%) of the annual rental
reserved for any one year of the prior five year option period, based on the
increase in the Bureau of Labor Statistics Cost of Living Index between
April 1, 1983 and March 31, 1988. Both increases shall be calculated using the
formula set forth in Paragraph 4 hereof, with relevant dates and base rental
amounts substituted as proper. In the event this option is exercised, rental
shall be payable in equal monthly installments in the manner set forth in the
Lease.
6. The premises described on "Schedule A" are to be used and
occupied by Tenant as a warehouse for its Hickory Farms franchise operations,
or for a similar business dealing in identical items.
7. Tenant and Landlord agree that during the term of the Lease and
any extensions, Tenant will need expanded parking area during September,
October, November and December of each calendar year. During the aforesaid
months, Landlord agrees to make fifty (50) parking spaces available in its
parking lot and Tenant agrees to pay at the commencement of any such month
the sum of $300.00. Tenant agrees that it shall occupy such space and make
such payments during at least the aforesaid 4 months of each calendar year
during the term or extensions.
-5-
8. Said premises described on "Schedules A and B" shall be held
pursuant to and subject to all the terms, conditions and provisions of the
Lease as though the same were incorporated herein, to all of which terms,
conditions and provisions the parties hereto agree and which they will perform
to the extent required to be performed by them as the Lease set forth, except
as modified herein, so that the premises hereby demised shall be held and
treated as though the same were demised as a part of the premises demised by
the Lease with commencement date and rental as set forth herein.
9. Landlord shall pay insurance premiums for fire and extended
risk, vandalism and malicious mischief insurance coverage for the period
July 1, 1977 to June 30, 1978, and said insurance shall cover premises described
on "Schedule A". The insurance premium so paid shall be considered the base
amount payable by Landlord. Tenant agrees to pay any increase in insurance
premium attributable to the premises described on "Schedule A", and
improvements thereon, over the base amount during any other year of the term
in which such an increase might occur. Said amount payable by Tenant shall
be deemed to be rental, and shall be payable upon demand. For the purposes
of this provision, since Landlord's insurance policy may insure areas in excess
of premises described on "Schedule A", Landlord and Tenant shall accept such
attribution of premium expense as may be made by any agent of Landlord's
insurer.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Addendum
to Lease the day and first above written.

ADDENDUM TO LEASE
Provided this Lease is in full force and effect on April 1, 1993, Landlord
hereby grants to Tenant an additional five (5) year option to renew the Lease
for the term beginning April 1, 1998 ("Term Commencement Date"), and expiring on
March 31, 2003. During said renewal term, the annual rental ("Annual Rent")
shall be that sum reserved and paid during the prior five (5) year period ("Base
Rent"), together with the consumer price index adjustment as set forth below:
I. CONSUMER PRICE INDEX ADJUSTMENT
-------------------------------
(a) Definitions: For purposes of calculating cost of living adjustments,
-----------
the following definitions shall apply:
(i) "Price Index" shall mean the "Consumer Price Index for all
Urban Consumers", Philadelphia-Wilmington-Trenton, PA-DE-NJ-MD, All items (1967
= 100), published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States
Department of Labor.
(ii) "Price Index One" shall mean the monthly Price Index for
March, 1993.
(iii) "Price Index Two" shall mean the monthly Price Index for
April, 1980.
(iv) "Price Index Three" shall mean the monthly Price Index for
April, 1988.
(b) Adjustment of Rent. Effective as of the Term Commencement Date, there
------------------
shall be a cost of living adjustment of the rentals payable under the Lease. The
adjustment shall be based on a percentage being equal to a fraction, the
numerator of which
-2-
is the difference between Price Index One and Price Index Two, and the
denominator of which is Price Index Three and as set forth in the following
formula:
Price Index One - Price Index Two
---------------------------------
Price Index Three
The annual Base Rent to be paid in monthly installments commencing on the Term
Commencement Date, shall be multiplied by the percentage arrived at by the above
formula, and the resulting sum shall be added to such fixed annual Base Rent
effective as of the Term Commencement Date, said adjusted annual Base Rent shall
thereafter be payable hereunder in equal monthly installments (or adjusted for
fractional months as provided above) as provided in the Lease.
The following illustrates the intentions of the parties hereto as to the
computation of the forementioned cost of living adjustment in the annual Base
Rent payable hereunder: Assuming that said fixed annual Base Rent is
$10,000.00, that Price Index One is 120, that Price Index Two is 110, and that
Price Index Three is 115, then the percentage increase thus affected, i.e.,
8.695% (120-110), would be multiplied by $10,000.00 and said fixed annual
-------
115
Base Rent would be increased by $869.50 effective as of the Term Commencement
Date.
(c) Changes in Price Index. In the event that a substantial change is
----------------------
made in the method by which the Price Index is determined, then for purposes of
this Section, the Price Index shall be adjusted to the figure that would have
resulted had no
-3-
change occurred in the manner of determining the Price Index. In the event that
the Price Index (or a successor or substitute index) is not available, a
reliable governmental or other nonpartisan publication evaluating the
information theretofore used in determining the Price Index shall be used in
lieu of the Price Index. Provided hereto that the parties hereby stipulate and
agree that the Price Index (1967-100) shall be used in calculating all
percentages under this paragraph.
In no event, however, shall the Annual Rent to be paid during this five (5)
year option period (i) exceed One Hundred Twenty percent (120%) of the Base
Rent, or (ii) be less than the Base Rent.
2. All the term, covenants and conditions of the Lease as above described
shall remain in full force and effect except as modified herein.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Addendum to Lease
the day and year first above written.

WHEREAS, the tenant has an additional option to renew for the period

year periods beginning April 1, 2003, which would expire on March 31, 2008, and
April 1, 2008, expiring on March 31, 2013.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto in consideration of the covenants and
agreements hereinafter set forth do hereby agree as follows:
1. Provided this Lease is in full force and effect on April 1, 2003,
the Landlord hereby grants to Tenant two additional five (5) year options to
renew the Lease: the first for a term beginning April 1, 2003 ("Term
Commencement Date") and expiring on March 31, 2008 and the second term beginning
April 1, 2008 ("Term Commencement Date") and expiring on March 31, 2013. During
each renewal term the annual rental ("Annual Rental") shall be that sum reserved
and paid during the prior five (5) year period ("Base Rent"), together with the
consumer price index adjustment as set forth below:
I. CONSUMER PRICE INDEX ADJUSTMENT
-------------------------------
(a) Definitions: For purposes of calculating cost of living
-----------
adjustments, following definitions shall apply:
2
(i) "Price Index" shall mean the "Consumer Price Index for all
Urban Consumers", Philadelphia-Wilmington-Trenton, PA-DE-NJ-MD, All items (1967
- 100), published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States
Department of Labor.
(ii) "Price Index One" shall mean the monthly Price Index for
March, 1993.
(iii) "Price Index Two" shall mean the monthly Price Index for
April, 1980.
(iv) "Price Index Three" shall mean the monthly Price Index for
April, 1988.
(b) Adjustment of Rent. Effective as of the Term Commencement Date,
------------------
there shall be a cost of living adjustment of the rentals payable under the
Lease. The adjustment shall be based on a percentage being equal to a fraction,
the numerator of which is the difference between Price Index One and Price Index
Two, and the denominator of which is Price Index Three and as set forth in the
following formula:
Price Index One - Price Index Two
---------------------------------
Price Index Three
The annual Base Rent to be paid in monthly installments commencing on the Term
Commencement Date, shall be multiplied by the percentage arrived at by the above
formula, and the resulting sum shall be added to such fixed annual Base Rent
effective as of the Term Commencement Date, said adjusted annual Base Rent shall
thereafter by payable hereunder in equal monthly installments (or adjusted for
fractional months as provided above) as provided in the Lease.
3
The following illustrates the intentions of the parties hereto as to the
computation of the aforementioned cost of living adjustment in the annual Base
Rent payable hereunder: Assuming that said fixed annual Base Rent is
$10,000.00, that Price Index One is 120, that Price Index Two is 110, and that
Price Index Three is 115, then the percentage increase thus affected, i.e.,
8.695% (120-110), would be multiplied by $10,000.00 and said fixed annual Base
-------
115
Rent would be increased by $869.50 effective as of the Term Commencement Date.
(c) Changes in Price Index. In the event that a substantial change is
----------------------
made in the method by which the Price Index is determined, then for purposes of
this Section, the Price Index shall be adjusted to the figure that would have
resulted had no change occurred in the manner of determining the Price Index. In
the event that the Price Index (or a successor or substitute index) is not
available, a reliable governmental or other nonpartisan publication evaluating
the information theretofore used in determining the Price Index shall be used in
lieu of the Price Index. Provided hereto that the parties hereby stipulate and
agree that the Price Index (1967-100) shall be used in calculating all
percentages under this paragraph.
In no event, however, shall the Annual Rent to be paid during this five (5)
year option period (i) exceed One Hundred Twenty percent (120%) of the Base
Rent, or (ii) be less than the Base Rent.
4
2. The option may not be exercised if Tenant is in default under any of
the terms of the Lease.
3. Notice of intent to exercise an option shall be served upon the
Authority addressed to the Administrator at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx, no later than
three (3) months prior to the expiration of the term of said lease.
4. All the term, covenants and conditions of the Lease as above described
shall remain in full force and effect except as herein modified.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Addendum to Lease
the day and year first above written.
