having an office at Xxxxx 00, 0xx Xxxxx, X0. H.R. Rasuna Said Xxx. X-0

R E C I T A L S:
WHEREAS, FI operates a mining enterprise in Irian Jaya, Indonesia
pursuant to a Contract of Work dated December 30, 1991, between FI and the
Government of the Republic of Indonesia (as the same may hereafter be amended,
modified or supplemented, the "COW");
WHEREAS, FI and ALatieF entered into that certain Joint Venture
Agreement dated March 11, 1993, (as amended, the "JVA"), pursuant to which FI
and ALatieF intended, inter alia, that FI would sell US$270 million of
infrastructure assets which were classified by FI an non-core assets for its
mining enterprise (the "Transferable Infrastructure Properties") to a company
jointly established by them, which would then operate such assets in support
of FI's mining enterprise and, to the extent excess capacity existed and other
requirements were satisfied, for third parties;
WHEREAS, subsequent to entering into the JVA, it was determined that two
separate companies would have to be formed to purchase and operate the
Transferable Infrastructure Properties because among such assets which were
contemplated to be sold was the Sheraton Inn at Timika (the "Hotel") and a
golf course and clubhouse facility (as hereinafter further defined, the "Golf
Facility") and Indonesian law required that any company engaged in the hotel
and hospitality business be a single purpose entity dedicated exclusively to
the hotel and hospitality business;
WHEREAS, in order to effectuate their original agreement while complying
with the Indonesian legal requirements referred to above, FI and ALatieF
amended the JVA to delete the Hotel and Golf Facility from the Transferable
Infrastructure Properties which were contemplated to be sold to and operated
by the company which would be formed pursuant thereto and FI and ALatieF
entered into a second Joint Venture Agreement dated August 11, 1994 (the
"Hotel JVA"), pursuant to which FI and ALatieF agreed to form a second company
which would purchase and operate the Hotel and Golf Facility;
WHEREAS, in furtherance of the JVA, FI and ALatieF formed AFIC and,
prior to the date hereof, AFIC has purchased Transferable Infrastructure
Properties from FI in three separate transactions for an aggregate purchase
price of US$151,920,000;
WHEREAS, in furtherance of the Hotel JVA, FI and ALatieF formed AFHC
and, prior to the date hereof, AFHC has purchased the Hotel from FI for
US$42,948,000;
WHEREAS, in order to complete the sale and purchase of an aggregate of
US$270 million of Transferable Infrastructure Properties as originally
contemplated, FI and ALatieF have agreed that FI will sell an additional
US$68,079,986 of Transferable Infrastructure Properties to AFIC pursuant to a
certain Purchase and Sale Agreement between FI and AFIC of even date herewith
(the "AFIC Purchase and Sale Agreement"), which will result in AFIC having
acquired a total of US$220 million of Transferable Infrastructure Properties
(all such assets acquired by AFIC from FI, by purchase or by exchange and
whether acquired heretofore, contemporaneously with the execution of this
Agreement or hereafter, being hereinafter referred to as the "AFIC Assets"),
and FI will sell the Golf Facility to AFHC for US$7,052,000 pursuant to a
certain Purchase and Sale Agreement between FI and AFHC of even date herewith
(the "AFHC Purchase and Sale Agreement"), which will result in AFHC having
acquired a total of US$50 million of Transferable Infrastructure Properties
(all such assets acquired by AFHC from FI being hereinafter referred to as the
"AFHC Assets");
AND
WHEREAS, the JVA and the Hotel JVA recognized that FI's rights to
utilize the land on which the Transferable Infrastructure Properties were
situated were derived from the COW and the JVA and Hotel JVA contemplated that
FI would, prior to or after the closing of the sale of each Transferable
Infrastructure Property obtain and transfer Hak Guna Bangunan land rights
("HGB") to the land on which such Transferable Infrastructure Property was
located;
WHEREAS, subsequent to entering into the JVA, FI was advised by the
Indonesian Government that, for governmental reasons, HGB would not be granted
for any land above Xxxx 00 (as measured on FI's road beginning at Amamapare
and leading to Tembagapura) and that pursuant to regulations issued by the
Ministry of Sea Communications, HGB would not be granted for any land within
100 meters of the river at Amamapare (those areas described above as areas
where the Government has indicated it will not issue HGB are hereinafter
referred to as the "Non-HGB Lands");
WHEREAS, the aforementioned restrictions as to the granting of HGB have
resulted in FI not being able to obtain and transfer HGB for the land on which
certain AFIC Assets are situated (but such restrictions have not affected FI's
ability to obtain and transfer HGB title to the land on which the AFHC Assets
are situated);
WHEREAS, FI and ALatieF have also agreed that FI will reacquire from
AFIC certain AFIC Assets at Amamapare in exchange for FI transferring certain
infrastructure assets of comparable value located at Tembagapura to AFIC
pursuant to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement between FI and AFIC of
even date herewith (the "Facilities Purchase and Sale Agreement");
WHEREAS, the aforementioned restrictions as to the granting of HGB will
prevent FI from obtaining and transferring HGB to AFIC for the land on which
the infrastructure assets located at Tembagapura which land would otherwise
become AFIC Assets upon the completion of the exchange contemplated by the
Facilities Purchase and Sale Agreement, are situated;
WHEREAS, through an error in the description of certain land previously
transferred by FI to AFHC located adjacent to the electric power generation
facilities and the sewerage and water facilities, each of which is located
near the Xxxxxx airport, such land description included approximately 2
hectares more land than intended and included land which FI intended to
transfer to PT Puncakjaya Power, the buyer of such electric power generation
facilities, and land which FI intended to retain in connection with its usage
of the sewerage and water facilities (such land being hereinafter collectively
referred to as the "Timika Land");
WHEREAS, FI and AFHC have further agreed to amend the description of the
land included in the previous transfer by FI to AFHC to delete the Timika
Land, or for AFHC to retransfer such land to FI, as appropriate;
WHEREAS, a religious organization has approached AFHC requesting the
donation of a mutually agreed plot of land measuring approximately 30 meters
by 30 meters located near FI's exploration base camp in Timika for the purpose
of allowing such organization to construct a mosque on such land (the "Mosque
Land");
WHEREAS, FI and AFHC have yet further agreed that AFHC shall transfer
the Mosque Land to the religious organization requesting such land at such
time as is agreed between AFHC and the religious organization requesting such
land;
WHEREAS, in order to resolve all issues related to FI's inability to
transfer HGB to land within the Non-HGB Lands, certain other issues related to
the amount of land transferred to AFIC in connection with all transfers of
Transferable Infrastructure Assets by FI to AFIC, the land description error
which resulted in the Timika Land being transferred to AFHC, and the donation
of the Mosque Land to a religious organization, FI, ALatieF, AFIC and AFHC
have agreed that FI shall transfer HGB to certain land located at Kuala
Kencana to AFIC pursuant to that certain Land Settlement Agreement between FI
and AFIC of even date herewith (the "Land Settlement Agreement");
AND
WHEREAS, each of AFIC and AFHC were formed with ALatieF owning 2/3rds
and FI owning 1/3rd of the issued share capital of those companies;
WHEREAS, upon the completion of the recapitalization of AFIC in
connection with the acquisition of the final US$68,079,986 of Transferable
Infrastructure Properties pursuant to the AFIC Purchase and Sale Agreement,
the total equity invested in AFIC shall be US$73,333,333;
WHEREAS, upon the completion of the recapitalization of AFHC in
connection with the final US$7,052,000 acquisition of the Golf Facility
pursuant to the AFHC Purchase and Sale Agreement, the total equity invested in
AFHC shall be US$16,666,667;
WHEREAS, the JVA and the Hotel JVA each provided that ALatieF would have
the option to purchase all of the shares owned by FI on the seventh
anniversary of the date of the formation of each of these companies or at any
time thereafter;
WHEREAS, FI and ALatieF have agreed, conditioned upon the receipt of all
necessary approvals, which approvals shall be obtained by ALatieF, that
ALatieF's Affiliate, P.T. ALatieF Corporation ("PTAC"), shall purchase all of
the shares of AFIC then owned by FI pursuant to a certain Share Transfer
Agreement between FI and PTAC of even date herewith (the "AFIC Share Transfer
Agreement") and PTAC shall purchase all of the shares of AFHC then owned by FI
pursuant to a certain Share Transfer Agreement between FI and PTAC of even
date herewith (the "AFHC Share Transfer Agreement");
AND
WHEREAS, the JVA and the Hotel JVA contemplated that over a period of
time the prices charged by and/or payable to each of AFIC and AFHC would be
revised from a cost plus a percentage fee type of payment basis to the basis
reflective of comparable market prices;
WHEREAS, each of AFIC and AFHC have begun the transition to a market
price economic basis and the parties hereto have each agreed that those
certain Master Services Agreements presently in effect between FI and each of
AFIC and AFHC which provide for payments to be made on a cost plus percentage
fee basis (collectively, as amended, the "Master Services Agreements") shall
be superseded and replaced by (i) this Agreement, (ii) two new Master Lease
Agreements between FI and AFIC of even date herewith whereby FI will lease all
of the AFIC Assets at rental rates comparable to the rates charged for the
lease of comparable properties in Jakarta on comparable terms and conditions,
with such leases giving due consideration to newly enacted tax rules
concerning the payment of a final tax on real property rentals in structuring
rents payable to AFIC (each, a "Master Lease Agreement"), and (iii) a Master
Use Agreement between FI and AFHC of even date herewith whereby AFHC shall
undertake to assure that the Hotel and Golf Facility will continue to be used
and operated in a manner consistent with their current usage, that quality
standards currently in effect will be maintained or improved, and that prices
charged to FI and its employees and to FI's contractors and consultants and
their employees, will be no higher than the average rates charged in Jakarta
by comparable hotel and golf facilities which are open for use by the general
public (the "Master Use Agreement");
WHEREAS, FI and/or AFIC and/or AFHC shall enter into certain further
agreements with Affiliates (as hereinafter defined) of ALatieF (the "Service
Providers") to provide management, operations and maintenance services for
certain of the AFIC Assets and the AFHC Assets;
AND
WHEREAS, the JVA and the Hotel JVA contemplated that FI would be
responsible for arranging financing for the indebtedness incurred by AFIC in
acquiring the AFIC Assets and by AFHC in acquiring the AFHC Assets
(collectively, the "Acquisition Debt") on the basis that such financing would
have an interest rate chargeable to AFIC and AFHC which would not exceed 5%
per annum and a principal amortization of 5% per annum for the initial 7 year
term (maturing in the year 2000) and, after such 7 year period, each of AFIC
and AFHC would be responsible for arranging their own refinancing;
WHEREAS, the JVA and the Hotel JVA contemplated that FI would guarantee
a minimum annual after-tax cash flow to AFIC and AFHC, collectively, on the
purchase price paid to FI for the purchase of the Transferable Infrastructure
Properties with the guaranteed amount being 10% on the Acquisition Debt and
15% on the equity funds invested by the shareholders of AFIC and AFHC which
were used for the acquisition of the Transferable Infrastructure Properties
(as such amount may be adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, the "Invested
Equity");
WHEREAS, the Parties have agreed to modify their prior agreements such
that FI will continue to be responsible for the financing and refinancing of
the Acquisition Debt, the amortization of such debt will be accelerated such
that the Acquisition Debt will be fully amortized in equal annual, semi-annual
or quarterly installments by January 1, 2009, (except that the indebtedness of
AFIC and AFHC to P.T. ALatieF Freeport Finance Company, B.V. will continue to
be non-amortizing through its term), all costs (except the parties internal
costs, if any) of arranging and servicing the Acquisition Debt will be paid by
FI on a pass through basis, and, as a result of the foregoing, the Acquisition
Debt shall henceforward be excluded in calculating the guaranteed minimum
after-tax cash flow of AFIC and AFHC, collectively, such that FI's continuing
guarantee shall be that AFIC and AFHC, collectively, shall receive the Revised
Guaranteed Return, as hereinafter defined;
WHEREAS, the Parties have further agreed to modify their prior
agreements such that FI shall not be obligated to make any payment to enable
AFIC and AFHC, collectively, to achieve the Revised Guaranteed Return unless
the profits earned by AFIC and AFHC and, if applicable, any excess profits
above the Revised Guaranteed Return earned by AFIC and AFHC in prior years,
collectively, do not equal or exceed the Revised Guaranteed Return;
AND
WHEREAS, for all of the foregoing and other reasons, FI and ALatieF
desire by this Agreement to supersede and cancel the JVA and the Hotel JVA and
to henceforward have their relationship governed by this Agreement, and FI and
each of AFIC and AFHC desire by this Agreement to supersede and cancel their
respective Master Services Agreements, with the relationship between FI and

Article 5
FINANCING; DEBT SERVICE; RETURN ON EQUITY
5.1 Acquisition Capital Financing/Amortization. FI shall arrange financing
and/or refinancing on behalf of AFIC and AFHC of their respective
portions of the Acquisition Debt, but of no other debt which AFIC or
AFHC may incur including, but not limited to, debt for financing working
capital requirements. The terms of such financing shall provide that
such debt shall be fully amortized in equal annual, semi-annual or
quarterly installments by January 1, 2009, (except that the indebtedness
of AFIC and AFHC to P.T. ALatieF Freeport Finance Company, B.V. will
continue to be non-amortizing through its term). All such financings
shall contain such other terms and conditions as shall be approved by
and are acceptable to FI.
AFIC and AFHC hereby acknowledge and agree that they shall, at their
expense, provide all assistance which FI may reasonably request in
arranging such financing and in complying with the terms and conditions
of such financing including, but not limited to, providing such non-
public information and data as may be requested by the Lenders and/or
prospective lenders.
5.2 Debt Service. FI shall (i) guarantee the payment of all principal,
interest, fees and other amounts required to be paid to the Lenders on
the financing of the Acquisition Debt, (ii) shall be entitled to
withhold amounts otherwise due and payable by FI to either of AFIC or
AFHC an amount equal to Debt Service on the Acquisition Debt of both
AFIC and AFHC, and (iii) all principal, interest, fees and other amounts
required to be paid to the Lenders on the financing of the Acquisition
Debt, when due, directly to the Lenders or into a lock box account, as
agreed by FI and the Lenders.
5.3 Return on Invested Equity. FI guarantees that each year AFIC and AFHC
will receive, on a combined basis, the Revised Guaranteed Return from a
combination of payments made by third parties, payments of the PNK
Service Contract Portion, if any, made by PNK as contemplated by the
last paragraph of Article 3, payments made by FI pursuant to the Master
Lease Agreements and the Master Use Agreement, the application, if
applicable, of any Carryforward Amount, and, if necessary to achieve the
Revised Guaranteed Return, a Variable Rent Payment by FI.
FI shall not be required to make any Variable Rent Payment in any year
when the sum of (i) AFIC Net Profits plus (ii) AFHC Net Profits plus
(iii) the PNK Service Contract Portion, if any, payable by PNK to AFIC
and/or AFHC as contemplated by the last paragraph of Article 3, plus,
(iv) the Carryforward Amount, if any, equal or exceed the Revised
Guaranteed Return.
Any Variable Rent Payment which FI is required to make shall be payable
within 30 days following the submission of a claim by ALatieF, with
appropriate supporting information and data which establishes that a
Variable Rent Payment is due, the amount of such Variable Rent Payment
and the amount of such Variable Rent Payment to be paid to each of AFIC
and AFHC. If as a result of any audit conducted pursuant to Article 6
hereof and any recalculation of AFIC Net Profits, AFHC Net Profits
and/or the PNK Service Contract Portion resulting therefrom, it is
determined that any Variable Rent Payment made by FI exceeds the amount
actually owed by FI, then FI shall have the right to withhold the amount
of such overpayment from the next amounts due and payable to AFIC and/or
AFHC until the full amount of such overpayment, together with interest
at a rate of 12% per annum has been recovered by FI.
5.4 Advances on the Variable Rent Payment. If at any time during a year the
cumulative cash flow of either AFIC or AFHC is not sufficient to allow
AFIC or AFHC, as applicable, to pay its Allowable Excesses, Debt Service
and Taxes when and as due (a "Cashflow Shortfall"), then ALatieF shall
have the right, but not more frequently than once per month, to request
FI to make an advance on the Variable Rent Payment (each such payment an
"Advance") , by presenting a claim therefor together with appropriate
supporting information and data, and instructions as to the amount of
such Advance to be paid to each of AFIC and AFHC. Each request for an
Advance which is complete and has no obvious errors shall be paid by FI
within ten (10) days of the receipt of such request.
If at the end of each calendar quarter in each year, the cumulative Cash
Flow (including any Advances previously made during such year) of either
AFIC or AFHC during such year is less than the proportionate amount of
the Revised Guaranteed Return as of the end of such calendar quarter
(3.75% as of March 31, 7.5% as of June 30, 11.25% as of September 30 and
15% as of December 31), then ALatieF shall have the right to request an
additional Advance in an amount equal to the difference between the
actual cumulative Cash Flow of AFIC or AFHC during such year through the
end of such calendar quarter and the proportionate amount of the Revised
Guaranteed Return which should have been received at the end of such
calendar quarter, by presenting a claim therefor together with
appropriate supporting information and data and instructions as to the
amount of such Advance to be paid to each of AFIC and AFHC. Each request
for an Advance which is complete and has no obvious errors shall be paid
by FI within ten (10) days of the receipt of such request.
All Advances made during a year shall be excluded in calculating, as
provided in the second paragraph of Section 5.3 above, whether or not FI
is required to make a Variable Rent Payment for such year. If, based on
such calculation:
(a) FI is not required to make a Variable Rent Payment for such year,
then FI shall have the right to withhold an amount equal to the
sum of all Advances made during such year from the next amounts
due and payable to AFIC and/or AFHC until the full amount of such
Advances made during such year, together with interest at a rate
of 12% per annum, has been recovered by FI, and
(b) FI is required to make a Variable Rent Payment for such year, then
(i) if the sum of the Advances made during such year exceed the
amount of the Variable Rent Payment owed, FI shall have the right
to withhold the amount by which the sum of such Advances made
during such year exceeds the amount of the Variable Rent Payment
owed, together with interest at a rate of 12% per annum, from the
next amounts due and payable to AFIC and/or AFHC until the full
amount of such overpayment has been recovered by FI or (ii) if the
sum of the Advances made during such year is less than the amount
of the Variable Rent Payment owed, then the sum of such Advances
made during such year shall be credited against the amount of the
Variable Rent Payment owed and FI shall pay the balance of the
Variable Rent Payment owed as provided in the last paragraph of
Section 5.3 above.
5.5 Invested Equity Adjustment. Any sale or other disposition by AFIC of any
AFIC Asset, or by AFHC of any AFHC Asset, shall be on terms and
conditions, including fair market value compensation, as could be
expected to be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
Should AFIC, at any time, sell or otherwise dispose of any AFIC Asset or
any part thereof, or AFHC, at any time, sell or otherwise dispose of any
AFHC Asset or any part thereof, including, without limitation, pursuant
to Article 9 or Section 8.2(c) hereof, the amount of Invested Equity on
which the Revised Guaranteed Return is calculated shall be reduced by
1/3rd of the original purchase price paid by AFIC or AFHC to acquire
such AFIC Assets or AFHC Asset.
Article 6

Variable Rent Payment, or both, in any year, then FI shall have the right to

Service Provider as hereinafter provided.

necessary and which are reasonably related to this Agreement or any
other agreement between FI and any of AFIC, AFHC, PNK and any Service
Provider, including without limitation, the salaries, fees and other
amounts paid to Affiliated companies and individuals (which salaries,
fees and other amounts are to be commensurate with amounts paid to or
charged by third parties unaffiliated with ALatieF for the same or
comparable services and/or the same or similar quantities and quality of
goods purchased under similar circumstances and conditions and in no
case shall Allowable Expenses include any amount payable for services
and goods which is in excess of the price at which FI could have
purchased such services or goods). Such right to examine books and
records shall serve, among other purposes, to enable FI to identify any
expenses which are not Allowable Expenses and all such expenses which
are not Allowable Expenses shall be credited to the calculation of the
Revised Guarantee Return in the same manner as if such amount had been
earned as net profit by the entity concerned.
6.3 Generally Acceptable Accounting Principles. In keeping books and records
on its operations hereunder, AFIC, AFHC, PNK and each other Service

shall include, or cause to be included, a provision in any and all
contracts which it or any of its Affiliates enters into with any other
Affiliated company or individual in connection with providing any

Article 8
REACQUISITION OF PROPERTY
8.1 FI's Right to Reacquire. If, at any time hereafter FI's Board of
Commissioners adopts a resolution to the effect that, for any of the
reasons specified below, it is necessary or advisable for FI to
reacquire any AFIC Asset or any AFHC Asset (any such property to be
reacquired being hereinafter referred to as the "Affected Property"), FI
shall promptly notify AFIC or AFHC of such resolution, the date on which
the Affected Property is required to be reconveyed to FI (which date
shall not be earlier than 12 months from the date of the notice unless
the reason specified in such notice is that described in clause (c)
below, in which case the time period will be reasonable based on the
hazard giving rise to such notice) and the reasons why the Affected
Property is being reacquired. AFIC and AFHC hereby agree to execute and
deliver any and all documents which FI determines are necessary or
advisable in connection with the reacquisition of Affected Property
pursuant hereto. The reasons which will permit FI to reacquire Affected
Property under this Article 8 are as follows:
a) FI has determined that a commercially exploitable deposit of
minerals exists under, near or as part of the Affected Property;
b) FI requires all or part of the Affected Property as the location
for equipment or other facilities in connection with FI's mining
enterprise;
c) FI becomes aware that the Affected Property has become or is
likely to become a physical hazard to any person or property, or
its condition is such that continued maintenance and repair is not
economically justified by prudent business standards; and
d) FI reasonably determines that such reacquisition is necessary or
advisable to enable it to comply with the COW or any Indonesian
law, rule, regulation or decree.
8.2 AFIC's/AFHC's Option. AFIC or AFHC shall have the option, exercisable
within 60 days after receipt of the notice of the adoption of any such
resolution, to require FI to either:
a) if economically viable, warranted by prudent business standards
and legally possible, construct, or cause to be constructed, as
soon as reasonably practical, in a location mutually satisfactory
to FI and AFIC or AFHC, as applicable, a property substantially
similar in all material aspects to the Affected Property
(hereinafter the "Reconstructed Property"), but in no event shall
FI be required to construct or cause to be constituted a
Reconstructed Property where the cost of construction is estimated
to exceed the sum of (i)1/3 of the original purchase price paid by
AFIC or AFHC to FI to acquire such Affected Property, plus (ii) a
prorata portion of the then outstanding balance of the Acquisition
Debt applicable to or encumbering such Affected Property;
b) if available and warranted by prudent business standards,
substitute as soon as reasonably practical, another property owned
by FI (hereinafter the "Substituted Property") for the Affected
Property, which Substituted Property shall be in a location and
otherwise be satisfactory in all material respects to AFIC or
AFHC, but in no event shall FI be required to provide a
Substituted Property where FI's cost to construct such property
exceeds the sum of (i) 1/3 of the original purchase price paid by
AFIC or AFHC to FI to acquire such Affected Property, plus (ii) a
prorata portion of the then outstanding balance of the Acquisition
Debt applicable to or encumbering such Affected Property; or
c) repurchase the Affected Property for a purchase price equal to the
greater of: (i) the fair market value of the Affected Property,
excluding any subsurface properties or rights therein, and (ii)
the sum of (A) 1/3 of the original purchase price paid by AFIC or
AFHC to FI to acquire such Affected Property, plus (B) a prorata
portion of the then outstanding balance of the Acquisition Debt
applicable to or encumbering such Affected Property. The fair
market value of any Affected Property shall be determined by an
appraisal procedure conducted by a mutually acceptable third party
appraiser in accordance with procedures to be established, it
being understood that the method of appraisal shall be the method
which is based on the greater of depreciated book value or on
comparable sales.
If AFIC or AFHC has not made an election within the 60 day period
referred to above or if a reconstructed Property is not economically
viable, warranted by prudent business standards or legally available in
the case of option (a) or if a Substituted Property is not otherwise
available and warranted by prudent business standards in the case of
option (b), then AFIC or AFHC shall be deemed to have elected the
repurchase option described in this Section 8.2(c).
8.3 Transfer of Property. Regardless of which option AFIC or AFHC, as
applicable, has elected or has been deemed to have elected pursuant to
Section 8.2 above, AFIC or AFHC, as applicable, shall transfer such
Affected Property to FI and FI shall accept the transfer of the Affected
Property from AFIC or AFHC, not later than the date specified in FI's
notice provided for in Section 8.1 above. FI and AFIC or AFHC, as
applicable, shall cooperate in good faith to effectuate the applicable
option at the earliest possible time. If the Affected Property is an
AFIC Asset, the Master Lease Agreement shall be amended to remove the
Affected Property from the scope thereof and to reduce pro-tanto the
Fixed Rent and Impositions (as each such term is defined in the Master
Lease) and other amounts payable under the Master Lease Agreement. In
all instances, ALatieF shall cause any other agreements relating to or
otherwise affecting, in whole or in part, any Affected Property to be
amended to remove the services for such Affected Property therefrom. All
Reconstructed Property or Substituted Property shall, at the sole option
of FI, exercisable by written notice to the owner of the Affected
Property to be conveyed to FI in exchange for the Reconstructed Property
or Substituted Property, be substituted in place of such Affected
Property in the Master Lease Agreement and/or other agreements, as
applicable. The Parties acknowledge that it may be necessary for a
payment to be made by one Party to another in the event that the value
of any Reconstructed Property or Substituted Property has a different
value than the Affected Property. The Parties further recognize that, in
the event either of the options described in Sections 8.2(a) or 8.2(b)
is elected and AFIC or AFHC is required to surrender or vacate the
Affected Property before a Reconstructed Property or Substituted
Property is available to lease by AFIC or occupancy by AFHC, FI may be
required to pay AFIC amounts payable under the Master Lease Agreement
related to such surrendered or vacated property until the Reconstructed
Property or Substituted Property is available for lease to FI or FI may
be required to pay AFHC an amount reasonably necessary to compensate
AFHC for the interruption of the business conducted at the Affected
Property for the period commencing with the date on which AFHC ceases to
conduct business at the Affected Property and terminating on the date
that AFHC is able to recommence business at the Reconstructed Property
or Substituted Property.

AFHC Asset, to any person or legal entity who or which is not an
Affiliate of ALatieF, without first offering to sell such AFIC Asset or

AFIC Assets or the AFHC Assets, respectively, which AFIC and/or AFHC
desires to accept, then prior to closing such sale AFIC and/or AFHC
shall first notify FI of such Bona Fide Offer by providing FI all data
and information concerning the proposed transaction, including, but not

right to purchase to be communicated by AFIC and/or AFHC by notice given
hereunder. For the purposes of the foregoing, a "Bona Fide Offer" shall
be an offer reflected in an executed purchase contract with a ready,
willing and able buyer (or a contract in a fully negotiated form which
AFIC and/or AFHC and such a buyer are willing to execute) providing for

AFHC Assets may be exercised only as to the entire quantity of AFIC

whole and not in part only, the AFIC Assets and/or the AFHC Assets which

and conditions no more favorable to such third party than the terms and
conditions of the Offer. If AFIC and/or AFHC shall fail to consummate a
sale to such third party of the entire number of AFIC Assets and/or AFHC
Assets described in the Offer within 60 days after AFIC and/or AFHC
shall become entitled hereunder to sell to such third party, no sale or
transfer may thereafter be made by AFIC and/or AFHC without again
complying with the provisions of this Section 9.2.
9.3 ALatieF to Obligate Affiliate. In the event any AFIC Asset or AFHC Asset
is transferred to an Affiliate of ALatieF, then ALatieF shall cause such
Affiliate to be bound by the terms of this Article 9 and shall cause
