MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((Dimond) Anchorage, AK)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ OF ALASKA, INC., an Alaska corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
1. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease. The
"Basic Amount" will not be adjusted for the option price of any pad/parcel which
Landlord conveys to Tenant pursuant to the Pad Agreement (as defined below).
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for

that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
employed in the interpretation of this Modification or any exhibits or
amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as

for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease). Either party may require that a "short form" lease or modification
instrument be recorded to evidence the terms of this Modification, provided that
the document to be recorded will not state the rental amounts specified in
paragraph 3 above.
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in

Appendix 10I (3)
(Glenwood) Boise, ID
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((Glenwood) Boise, ID)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
3. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of

employed in the interpretation of this Modification or any exhibits or
amendments hereto.

or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,

MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Nampa, ID)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
4. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease. The
"Basic Amount" will not be adjusted for the option price of any pad/parcel which
Landlord conveys to Tenant pursuant to the Pad Agreement (as defined below).
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.

such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for

employed in the interpretation of this Modification or any exhibits or
amendments hereto.

or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in

equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease. The
"Basic Amount" will not be adjusted for the option price of any pad/parcel which
Landlord conveys to Tenant pursuant to the Pad Agreement (as defined below).
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this

herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the

signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for

for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or

include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as

hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).

Appendix 10I (8)
Beaverton, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Beaverton, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
6. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997

If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life

pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease. The
"Basic Amount" will not be adjusted for the option price of any pad/parcel which
Landlord conveys to Tenant pursuant to the Pad Agreement (as defined below).
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease. The
"Basic Amount" will not be adjusted for the option price of any pad/parcel which
Landlord conveys to Tenant pursuant to the Pad Agreement (as defined below).
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on

this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for

18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as

Lease).

Appendix 10I (10)
Corvallis, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Corvallis, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
8. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement

both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees

trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in

Appendix 10I (11)
(Division St.) Portland, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((Division St.) Portland, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
9. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease. The
"Basic Amount" will not be adjusted for the option price of any pad/parcel which
Landlord conveys to Tenant pursuant to the Pad Agreement (as defined below).
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.

herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for

for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred

include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any

Appendix 10I (12)
(East) Salem, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((East) Salem, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
10. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
4
both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement

incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such
trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,
sent to the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other
address or to the attention of such other person as the addressee shall have
designed by written notice sent in accordance herewith, and shall be deemed to
have been given upon receipt or refusal to accept delivery, or in the case of
facsimile transmission, as of the date of the facsimile transmission provided
that an original of such facsimile is also sent to the intended addressee by
means described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above. Unless changed in the
accordance with the preceding sentence, the addresses for notice given pursuant
to this Modification shall be as follows:

Appendix 10I (13)
Medford, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Medford, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
11. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
4
both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement

incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such
trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,
sent to the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other

designed by written notice sent in accordance herewith, and shall be deemed to
have been given upon receipt or refusal to accept delivery, or in the case of
facsimile transmission, as of the date of the facsimile transmission provided
that an original of such facsimile is also sent to the intended addressee by
means described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above. Unless changed in the
accordance with the preceding sentence, the addresses for notice given pursuant
to this Modification shall be as follows:

Appendix 10I (14)
(North) Salem, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((North) Salem, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
12. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.

for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as

hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).

term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed

writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.

herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of

amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).

MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((New) Roseburg, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
14. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997

lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.

If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997

pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life

both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees

incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such
trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in

accordance with the preceding sentence, the addresses for notice given pursuant
to this Modification shall be as follows:

(Santa Clara) Eugene, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((Santa Clara) Eugene, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
15. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997

If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any

that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
employed in the interpretation of this Modification or any exhibits or
amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,

have been given upon receipt or refusal to accept delivery, or in the case of
facsimile transmission, as of the date of the facsimile transmission provided
that an original of such facsimile is also sent to the intended addressee by
means described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above. Unless changed in the
accordance with the preceding sentence, the addresses for notice given pursuant
to this Modification shall be as follows:

Appendix 10I (19)
Springfield, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Springfield, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
16. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life

pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life

both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees

incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such
trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of

Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
Appendix 10I (20)
(South) Salem, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((South) Salem, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
17. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement

both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees

will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).

Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
Appendix 10I (21)
The Dalles, OR
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(The Dalles, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and FRED MEYER, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
18. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
4
both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life

incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such
trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,
sent to the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other
address or to the attention of such other person as the addressee shall have
designed by written notice sent in accordance herewith, and shall be deemed to
have been given upon receipt or refusal to accept delivery, or in the case of
facsimile transmission, as of the date of the facsimile transmission provided
that an original of such facsimile is also sent to the intended addressee by
means described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above. Unless changed in the
accordance with the preceding sentence, the addresses for notice given pursuant
to this Modification shall be as follows:

MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Tualatin, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
19. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
4
both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement

incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such
trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,
sent to the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other
address or to the attention of such other person as the addressee shall have
designed by written notice sent in accordance herewith, and shall be deemed to
have been given upon receipt or refusal to accept delivery, or in the case of
facsimile transmission, as of the date of the facsimile transmission provided
that an original of such facsimile is also sent to the intended addressee by
means described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above. Unless changed in the
accordance with the preceding sentence, the addresses for notice given pursuant
to this Modification shall be as follows:

MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((West) Eugene, OR)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of
February 4, 1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under
the Lease described below, and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
20. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997

If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997

pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any

for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall

in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will

18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options

Appendix 10I (24)
Aurora, WA
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Aurora, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
21. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,

Appendix 10I (25)
Bellingham, WA
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Bellingham, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
22. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997

both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees

incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such
trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or

MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Everett, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
23. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect

that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
employed in the interpretation of this Modification or any exhibits or
amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,
sent to the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other

MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((Lynnwood) Seattle, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
24. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect

that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
employed in the interpretation of this Modification or any exhibits or
amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,
sent to the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other

Appendix 10I (29)
Longview, WA
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Longview, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
2. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
4
both parties as a modification of the Lease, the Lease continues in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Modification
or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement

incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such
trial or appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees"
will include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and
expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with
proof of delivery, (c) United Sates Mail, postage prepaid, registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or (d) legible facsimile transmission,
sent to the intended addressee at the address set forth below, or to such other
address or to the attention of such other person as the addressee shall have
designed by written notice sent in accordance herewith, and shall be deemed to
have been given upon receipt or refusal to accept delivery, or in the case of
facsimile transmission, as of the date of the facsimile transmission provided
that an original of such facsimile is also sent to the intended addressee by
means described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above. Unless changed in the
accordance with the preceding sentence, the addresses for notice given pursuant
to this Modification shall be as follows:

Mill Plain, WA
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Mill Plain, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
25. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.

Lease Modification Agreement

If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any

without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of

Appendix 10I (31)
Puyallup, WA
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Puyallup, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
26. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the

Appendix 10I (32)
Richland, WA
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
(Richland, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
11. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the Clackamas Distribution Center by ▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇'▇ designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
10. Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will execute and deliver
such other documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested
by the other party to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Modification.
11. Counterparts. This Modification may be executed in counterparts, all
such executed counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the
signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and
may be appended to, any other counterpart.
12. Facsimile Signatures. In order to expedite the transaction contemplated
herein, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on
this Modification. The parties intend to be bound by the signatures on the
telecopied documents, are aware that the other party will rely on the telecopied
signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially
adversely affect the benefits accruing to any party hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Modification shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises is located.
15. Captions. The section headings appearing in this Modification are for
convenience or reference only and are not intended, to any extent and for any
purpose, to limit or define the text of any section or any subsection hereof.
16. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their
counsel have reviewed and revised this Modification and that the normal rule of
construction to the effect
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ - Metropolitan Life

that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
employed in the interpretation of this Modification or any exhibits or
amendments hereto.
17. Attorneys' Fees. In the event suit or action is instituted to interpret
or enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as
attorneys' fees at trial, on appeal of such suit or action, upon any petition
for review or in connection with any arbitration proceeding between the parties,
in addition to all other sums provided by law, and such prevailing party shall
also be entitled to recover reasonable non-litigation attorneys' fees incurred
in enforcing the terms of this Agreement prior to or separate from such trial or
appeal or other action or proceeding. As used herein, "attorneys' fees" will
include (without limitation) both attorney's and paralegals' fees and expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of
a Memorandum of Lease in substantially the same form as attached to the Lease as
an exhibit, with modifications to evidence the exercise of the renewal options
hereunder (but without a statement of the rental provisions herein or in the
Lease).
20. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Modification shall be given in
writing by (a) personal delivery, (b) reputable overnight delivery service with

(Tacoma) Pacific, WA
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((Tacoma) Pacific, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
28. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be

signatures, and hereby waive any defenses to the enforcement of the terms of
this Modification based on the forms of signature.
13. Severability. If any provision of this Modification is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Modification shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect; provided
that the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision does not materially

expenses.
18. Waiver. Any failure by a party at any time to require performance of
any provision of this Modification shall not limit the party's right to enforce
the provision in the future. Any waiver of any breach of any provision shall not
be a waiver of any succeeding breach or a waiver of the provision itself or any
other provision of this Modification.
19. Recordation. This Modification may not be recorded to any party hereto
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. The parties will,
however, co-operate with each other concerning the execution and recordation of

Appendix 10I (35)
(Tacoma) Stevens, WA
MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE
((Tacoma) Stevens, WA)
THIS MODIFICATION TO MASTER LEASE ("Modification"), dated as of February 4,
1997, by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Landlord"), as landlord/lessor under the Lease
described below, and ROUNDUP CO., a Washington corporation (hereinafter referred
to as "Tenant"), as tenant/lessee under such Lease.
Landlord has leased to Tenant, and Tenant has leased from Landlord,
for the lease term specified below, certain real property described in the
attached Exhibit A (the "Premises"), pursuant to the terms of a Lease Agreement,
between Landlord's predecessor in interest (Fred Meyer Real Estate Properties,
Ltd.) and Tenant, dated October 22, 1986, as amended (the "Lease"), the
landlord's/lessor's interest in which was assigned to Landlord pursuant to an
Assignment of Master Lease dated November 25, 1986. The Lease currently includes
seven successive renewal option terms after the end of the original lease term,
which ends on December 8, 2006, at certain fixed rental amounts stated in the
Lease. Each capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Modification will
have the meaning stated in the Lease.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree
as follows:
29. Exercise of First Three Renewal Options. Tenant hereby exercises its
first three renewal options contained in the Lease. As a result, the current
term of the Lease ("Current Term") will end on December 8, 2021, unless the
Current Term is extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Lease. Subject to the conditions stated in the Lease, Tenant will
continue to have four (4) additional successive options to extend the term
thereafter for additional option terms of five (5) years each (each of which
terms, if the respective option is exercised, is a "renewal term").
2. Establishment of Revised Rent for Initial Renewal Terms. The Fixed Rent
under this Lease will be as set forth in the attached Exhibit B, incorporated by
this reference. Such Fixed Rent amounts are modifications to the Fixed Rent
amounts stated in the Lease. Fixed Rent will be paid in equal monthly
installments and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease (as
modified hereby).
3. Revised Rent for Remaining Renewal Option Terms. During each renewal
option term, the first of which commences December 9, 2021, the annual Fixed
Rent shall be the greater of (i) the annual fair market rental value of the
Premises for the five (5) year renewal term in question, paid in sixty (60)
equal monthly payments over the renewal term, based on the highest and best
retail use of the Premises in its "as is" condition assuming a
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
1
lease of the Premises at arm's length to a non-captive tenant ("Fair Market
Rent"), or (ii) one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fixed Rent payable at
the end of the immediately preceding lease term, or renewal option term, as
applicable (the "Rent Minimum"). (For example, if the annual Fixed Rent payable
for the year immediately preceding the renewal term in question was $1,800,000,
or $150,000 monthly, the Rent Minimum would be $1,980,000 or $165,000 monthly,
each month, for the five year renewal term in question. The annual Fixed Rent
for the renewal term in question would be the greater of the annual Fair Market
Rent paid in equal monthly installments, or $1,980,000 paid $165,000 monthly).
Landlord shall have no obligation to make improvements, decorations, repairs,
alterations or additions to the Premises as a condition to Tenant's obligations
to pay rent for the renewal term.
If at the commencement of the renewal term in question the Fair Market Rent
has not been determined pursuant to paragraphs 3 or 4, the Fixed Rent shall be
paid in the amount of the Rent Minimum and a retroactive adjustment shall be
made as a lump-sum paid within 30 days after such a determination is made, but
only if the Fair Market Rent is higher ("Retroactive Adjustment").
On the date Tenant gives Landlord written notice of its exercising an
option to renew this Lease for a renewal term, but no earlier than twelve (12)
calendar months prior to the commencement of the renewal term in question (the
"Initial Determination Date"), the parties shall discuss and attempt to
determine the Fair Market Rent by mutual agreement pursuant to the following
procedure. On the Initial Determination Date, Tenant will notify Landlord as to
Tenant's opinion of such Fair Market Rent. Landlord will notify Tenant, within
sixty (60) days after the Initial Determination Date, as to Landlord's opinion
of the Fair Market Rent. If the Landlord's opinion is higher than the Rent
Minimum and the parties are unable to reach agreement within ninety (90) days
after the Initial Determination Date and Landlord's opinion of such Fair Market
Rent, if rendered by Landlord, is greater than the Rent Minimum, then either
party may initiate the appraisal procedure in paragraph 4 below. If Landlord's
opinion of such Fair Market Rent is equal to or less than the Rent Minimum, than
the Rent Minimum shall be the Fixed Rent for such renewal term.
4. Appraisal Procedure. A party may initiate the appraisal procedure for
determining such Fair Market Rent, pursuant to paragraph 3, by giving written
notice to the other of its election to require that the Fair Market Rent be
determined by appraisal. In such event, each party within thirty (30) days
thereafter shall appoint an appraiser having the qualifications stated below and
notify the other party as to the name and address of its appraiser. If a party
fails to appoint an appraiser within the 30-day period, the single appraiser
appointed shall constitute the sole appraiser for the purpose of determining the
applicable Fair Market Rent. Each appraiser will be instructed to attempt to
reach a consensus with the other appraiser (if applicable) as to the Fair Market
Rent of the Premises.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
2
If such consensus is not reached within sixty (60) days of the appointment
of the first appraiser, then each appraiser shall, by the end of the sixtieth
(60th) day separately provide a written statement of its determination of the
Fair Market Rent (which may be in letter form and state only the appraiser's
summary opinion of the Fair Market Rent), to be delivered to the other appraiser
and each party. The Fair Market Rent shall then be determined by averaging the
opinion of the two appraisers, unless the higher of the two appraisals exceeds
the lesser by ten percent (10%), in which case a third appraisal shall be
selected within twenty (20) days of such determination by the two appraisers.
The third appraiser shall render an appraisal of the Fair Market Rent within
thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser. The Fair Market Rent
shall be determined by averaging the two of the three appraisals that are the
closest to each other. If the two appraisers appointed by the parties fail to
appoint a third appraiser (if required) within the required time period, either
party may apply to the US District Court for the judicial district in which the
Premises is located, for the appointment of the third appraiser. The date that
the Fair Market Rent is finally determined and communicated to the parties in
writing pursuant to this paragraph 4 is the "Final Determination Date".
All appraisers shall be independent third parties not affiliated with the
parties and members in good standing of the American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers, or successor organization, and shall have, immediately preceding
their appointment, at least five (5) years' continuous experience in appraising
commercial real property, including three (3) years' experience in appraising
retail real property, in the state in which the Premises are located.
Tenant and Landlord shall each bear the cost of its own appraiser and shall
share equally the cost of the third appraiser, if any. Each party will bear its
own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with any proceeding related to the
appointment of the appraisers which is not attributable to the other party's
failure to appoint an appraiser with qualifications herein provided with the
time periods provided above.
5. Option To Terminate. If Fair Market Rent is determined pursuant to
paragraph 4 and if the annual Fair Market Rent is: (a) with respect to the
renewal option term commencing December 9, 2021, greater than one hundred and
seventy five percent (175%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the lease year
immediately preceding the option term which commences December 9, 2021, or (b)
with respect to all subsequent renewal option terms, greater than one hundred
and twenty five percent (125%) of the annual Fixed Rent for the last year of the
immediately preceding renewal option term, then Tenant will have the following
option to terminate the Lease (the "Option to Terminate") by (i) notifying
Landlord of its exercise of the Option to Terminate within thirty (30) days
after the Final Determination Date (the date of delivery to Landlord of such
notice is the "Notice Date"), (b) paying to Landlord on the Notice Date that
portion of the Retroactive Adjustment, if any, then accrued, and (iii) paying to
Landlord on the Notice Date a termination fee equal to the Fixed Rent for the
last three (3) full months of the term, as it may be extended
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement
February 4, 1997
3
pursuant to this paragraph 5. If Tenant timely exercises the Option to
Terminate, the Lease shall terminate on the later of (i) six (6) calendar months
after notice of the Option to Terminate is given, or (ii) the end of the Lease
term as if tenant had not exercised its option to extend.
6. Other Modifications to Lease. For purposes of calculating the purchase
price for the Premises in the event the purchase option set forth in Section 22
in the Lease is exercised, the definition of Fixed Rent for purposes of such
purchase options will be treated as follows:
(i) if the purchase option is exercised pursuant to Section 22.1 of
the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be determined by assuming that "Fixed
Rent" would be the amounts which would have been fixed rent as if this Lease not
been modified by this Modification, and as such fixed rent would have been
adjusted by the "Renewal Terms" as if this Lease had not been modified by this
Modification. The purchase price under Section 22.1 will include the Additional
Premium as set forth in such Section (i.e., a 20% Additional Premium at the end
of the Current Term, a 15% Additional Premium at the end of the first Renewal
Term hereunder, and with such Additional Premium thereafter declining 5
percentage points for each successive Renewal Term, cumulatively, until the last
Renewal Term hereunder, in which no Additional Premium is due).
(ii) if the purchase option under conditions of economic disutility is
exercised pursuant to Section 22.6 of the Lease, the Fair Market Value will be
determined at the revised Fixed Rent established pursuant to the provisions of
this Modification, and not the amounts stated in paragraph 4.1 of the Lease.
Other than as provided above, all provisions of Section 22 of the Lease
will continue to be applicable, and the parties will follow the procedures set
forth therein.
7. Concurrent Leases. From and after the closing date of the purchase of
six shopping centers by Fred Meyer and the Clackamas Distribution Center by Fred
Meyer's designee, the "Concurrent Leases" (as defined in the Lease and its
attached Exhibit C) will exclude such shopping centers and distribution center.
Pursuant to an Agreement concerning Miscellaneous Parcels of even date
herewith (the "Pad Agreement", Tenant is acquiring the right to acquire a
portion of the Premises from Landlord on certain terms and conditions. The
Parcel(s) being purchased pursuant to such Agreement will be deemed to be
excluded from the "Premises" as of the date of closing of the purchase.
Fred Meyer - Metropolitan Life
Lease Modification Agreement

8. Modifications to this Agreement. This Modification cannot be changed
orally, and no executory agreement shall be effective to waive, change, modify
or discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in
writing and is signed by the parties against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification or discharge is sought.
9. Non-Impairment of the Lease. This Modification constitutes a
modification of certain provisions of the Lease but is not a novation of the
Lease. Except as specifically modified hereby or as the parties otherwise agree
in a written instrument duly executed by both parties as a modification of the
Lease, the Lease continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.
