W I T N E S S E T H :
WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant (as successor by merger with Petro Stopping Centers, L.P.) are parties to that certain Lease Agreement, dated as of May 30, 2007, as amended (as so amended, the Lease);
WHEREAS, HPT PSC Properties Trust is selling to Tenant, and Tenant is acquiring from HPT PSC Properties Trust, the Properties (this and other capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given such terms in the Lease) related to the Travel Centers identified on Schedule 1 attached hereto and made a part hereof (collectively, the Sold Properties);
WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant wish to amend the Lease to remove the Sold Properties and to reflect a corresponding reduction in Minimum Rent; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree, as of the date of this Amendment, as follows:
1. Sold Properties. The Leased Property shall exclude the Sold Properties, but notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall retain all of its obligations with respect to the Sold Properties which are attributable to events occurring on or prior to the date hereof or which are addressed pursuant to Section 9.5 of the Lease (as if the Sold Properties remained Properties for the remainder of the Term). In furtherance of the foregoing, however, Tenant shall have no obligation to comply with Section 5.3 of the Lease solely with respect to the Sold Properties.
2. Minimum Rent. The defined term Minimum Rent set forth in the Lease is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
Minimum Rent shall mean Sixty-One Million Six Hundred Sixteen Thousand Five Hundred Eighty-Eight and 00/100ths Dollars ($61,616,588.00), subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.1.1(b).
3. Exhibit A. Exhibit A to the Lease is hereby amended by deleting the legal descriptions of the Sold Properties from Exhibits A-13, A-25, A-28, A-29 and A-34 and replacing them with Intentionally deleted.
4. Ratification. As amended hereby, the Lease is hereby ratified and confirmed and remains in full force and effect.
5. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
