B. Landlord’s Right to Develop
     1. The second sentence of Section 2.01(a) of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
Tenant expressly agrees that Landlord shall have the right, but shall have no obligation, to demolish, renovate, remodel, reconstruct or otherwise alter or develop in any manner the Entire Premises or any portion thereof for any and all uses beyond the Permitted Use (the “Development”) without Tenant’s consent; provided, however, that the Development shall not materially interfere with the Permitted Use or Tenant’s access to the Premises. In addition to developing some or all of the Entire Premises that are outside of the Building, Landlord’s Development rights set forth above shall include all roof-top and other exterior communication and advertising rights on or about the Entire Premises, including, without limitation, the exclusive right to install, locate, maintain, use, replace and repair satellite dishes and other roof-top communications equipment on the roof of the Building. In connection with the foregoing, Tenant agrees that Tenant shall have no right to lease or otherwise allow any third party to access or use the roof of the Building or any portion of the Premises for any use other than the Permitted Use.
     2. Tenant hereby waives all claims of any nature whatsoever Tenant may now have or may hereafter have against Landlord relating in any manner to, directly or indirectly, the Development. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall not be liable for any damage to persons or property located in, on or about the Premises resulting from or in connection with the Development, and Tenant waives and shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from any and all claims asserted by Tenant or Tenant’s officers, agents, employees, contractors, licensees, invitees or guests arising from damage resulting from or in connection with the Development (except to the extent such damage is caused by the willful act or gross negligence of Landlord; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be liable for any consequential damages, including, without limitation, any claim for loss of profit or business).
C. Surrender
     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease and promptly following Tenant’s receipt of a cost estimate thereof from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the cost of demolishing the improvements located on the Premises and removing all surface debris therefrom to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, as such cost estimate is determined by Landlord in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that Tenant may remove any or all of Tenant’s furniture, fixtures and equipment (the “FF&E”) from the Premises, so long as such removal occurs within forty-five (45) days after the Termination Date and Tenant repairs all extraordinary damage caused by such removal. Except as set forth above, from and after the Termination Date, the parties shall have no further rights under the Lease nor further obligations with respect to the Premises, except for any rights or obligations which expressly survive the termination of the Lease in accordance with the provisions thereof or at law.
