  2.   Section 35.6. Section 35.6 of the Lease is hereby amended and restated as follows:
      “Except as expressly permitted under this Section 35.6, this Lease shall not be filed in any public record.

Landlord further acknowledges that in order to comply with SEC rules and regulations, Tenant may be required by the SEC to disclose all or a portion of this Lease (as may be amended from time to time) as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 35.6 or elsewhere in this Lease, Landlord hereby agrees that Tenant may file (but only to the extent required by the SEC) all or such portion of this Lease (as may be amended from time to time) as an exhibit

Upon the request of either party, the parties shall execute and file a memorandum of lease, which shall not disclose any of the financial terms of this Lease.”
  3.   Miscellaneous.
  a.   Except as modified by this Amendment, all other terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease not specifically amended hereby shall remain in full force and effect.
 
  b.   The Lease, as amended by this Amendment, contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto and no representations, inducements, promises or agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties not embodied herein shall be of any force or effect. The Lease may be further amended only in writing signed by both Landlord and Tenant.
 
  c.   This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which, collectively, shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
