14.REIT Representations. Tenant understands that, in the event Landlord or any of its direct or indirect members or partners or any successor to any of the above needs to qualify as a real estate investment trust, the following requirements (the “REIT Requirements”) must be satisfied:
a.Personal Property Limitation. Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, the average of the fair market values of the items of personal property that are leased to Tenant under this Lease at the beginning and at the end of any Lease Year shall not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the average of the aggregate fair market values of the leased property at the beginning and at the end of such Lease Year (the “Personal Property Limitation”). If Landlord reasonably anticipates that the Personal Property Limitation will be exceeded with respect to the leased property for any Lease Year, Landlord shall notify Tenant, and Tenant either (i) shall purchase at fair market value any personal property anticipated to be in excess of the Personal Property Limitation (“Excess Personal Property”) either from Landlord or a third party or (ii) shall lease the Excess Personal Property from third party. In either case, Tenant’s Rent obligation shall be equitably adjusted.
b.Sublet Rents. Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet the Premises on any basis such that the rent or other amounts to be paid by the sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on either (i) the net income or profits derived by the business activities of the proposed sublessee, or (ii) any other formula such that any portion of the Rent would fail to qualify

    


as "rents from real property" within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Internal Revenue Code, or any similar or successor provision hereto.
c.REIT Requirements. Tenant agrees to cooperate in good faith with Landlord to ensure that the terms of this section are satisfied. Tenant agrees upon request by Landlord to take reasonable action necessary to ensure compliance with all REIT Requirements and to ensure that Rent, at all times qualifies as “rents from real property” with the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Internal Revenue Code. If Tenant becomes aware that the REIT Requirements are not, or will not be, satisfied, Tenant shall notify Landlord of such noncompliance.
15.Status of Lease. Except as amended by this Amendment, the Lease remains unchanged, and, as amended by this Amendment, the Lease is in full force and effect.
16.Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which may be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Amendment. In addition, properly executed, authorized signatures may be transmitted via facsimile and upon receipt shall constitute an original signature.
17.Entire Agreement. There are no oral or written agreements or representations between the parties hereto affecting the Lease not contained in the Lease or this Amendment. The Lease, as amended, supersedes and cancels any and all previous negotiations, arrangements, representations, brochures, displays, projections, estimates, agreements, and understandings, if any, made by, to, or between Landlord and Tenant and their respective agents and employees with respect to the subject matter thereof, and none shall be used to interpret, construe, supplement or contradict the Lease, including any and all amendments thereto. The Lease, and all amendments thereto, shall be considered to be the only agreement between the parties hereto and their representatives and agents. To be effective and binding on Landlord and Tenant, any amendment, revision, change or modification to the provisions of the Lease must be in writing and executed by both parties.
