judgments, liens and security interests, except as otherwise set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof.
 
(5)           As of the date of this letter, to Landlord's knowledge, Tenant is not in default in the performance of the provisions of the Lease and no notices of default have been given by Landlord to Tenant that remain uncured, and no event has occurred and no conditions exist which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a default under the Lease by Tenant.

(6)           As of the date of this letter, Tenant has paid fixed minimum rent through ___________ ____, 2011 and is current in the payment of all other monetary obligations imposed upon Tenant by the provisions of the Lease.  As of the date of this letter, Tenant has paid additional rent (including without limitation Tax Rent and Common Area Rent) through _______________ __, 2011.
 
(7)           Landlord acknowledges that DC is contemplating taking an assignment of Tenant's interest in the Lease (the "Assignment"). Landlord acknowledges that upon DC taking said Assignment and assuming all of the obligations of Tenant under the Lease, it will recognize DC as the tenant under and upon the terms set forth in the Lease.  Pursuant to Section 18 of the Rider to Lease, Landlord hereby consents to the Assignment to DC, as aforesaid, and any requirement set forth in the Lease that Landlord approve the form of the agreement of Assignment between Tenant and DC is hereby waived.
 
(8)           Landlord further acknowledges and agrees that no consideration is due to Landlord either from Tenant or DC as a result of the Assignment. Landlord shall be due a legal/administrative fee pursuant to the terms of the Lease, for Landlord's cost to review and consider the Assignment and all other provisions outlined herein.
 
(9)           As of the date of this letter, Landlord is not in default in the performance of the provisions of the Lease, and no event has occurred and no conditions exist which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a default under the Lease by Landlord.
 
(10)           Landlord acknowledges and agrees that as of the effective date of the Assignment, Marvin R. and Doris H. Troutman are hereby released from all obligations set forth in that certain Guaranty of Lease by Doris H. and Marvin R. Troutman dated February 2, 2004. However, pursuant to Section 18 of the Rider to Lease, Cinema Supply, Inc., shall not be released from liability.  In the event that Cinema Supply, Inc. and DC do not complete the transaction contemplated herein, the Guaranty of Lease by Doris H. and Marvin R. Troutman dated February 2, 2004 shall remain in effect.

located by DC on the Leased Premises to any lender which provides financing for the secured tenant property or for the operation of the business operated by DC. Landlord hereby agrees to extend to the Tenant, all rights (as specified in the Lease-Article 16A) to obtain leasehold financing.  Furthermore, if the holder of any such security interest in the Leased Premises shall succeed to the interest of DC under the Lease, Landlord hereby agrees to recognize such holder as tenant thereunder. The foregoing acknowledgment and agreement of subordination by Landlord shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required, as indicated in Article 16A of the Lease. Notwithstanding anything in this Paragraph 11 to the contrary, DC shall not be entitled to encumber Landlord's fee title to the Leased Premises and any liens or encumbrances applicable to Landlord's fee title to the Leased Premises shall not be subordinate to, or affected by, any grant of a lien or security interest by DC.
 
(12)           Landlord acknowledges that the movies and live events (such as sports, opera and pop concerts) industry is changing and that the primary delivery system for films will be transmission of films via satellite.  For this reason, DC will need to install satellite dishes on the roof of the Leased Premises, which dishes will be non-penetrating (ballast mounted).  Further, DC is contemplating the installation of a solar panel system on the roof of the Leased Premises for use in the operation of the theater, which solar panel system would be non-penetrating (ballast mounted). Landlord agrees that DC shall have the right to install the satellite dishes and solar panel system on the roof of the Leased Premises, provided that the plans and specifications for the satellite dishes and solar panel system are first approved in writing by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). If as a result of said installations, the integrity of the roof is breached and/or any applicable warranties are invalidated, Landlord assumes no responsibility to repair/replace/maintain all or any part of the roof.
 
(13)           Landlord represents and warrants that to the best of its knowledge, it has full right, title and authority to certify and agree to the provisions in this letter.

(14)           Landlord acknowledges and agrees that in connection with DC's closing on the Assignment, DC is relying on all of the representations, warranties, and certifications of Landlord contained in this letter.  Landlord represents and asserts that all of the information contained herein is accurate to the best of its knowledge and understanding.
