Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is hereby made to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Merger Agreement"), dated as of June 18, 1998, by and between Property Capital
Trust, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust") and Maryland Property
Capital Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Corporation"), relating to
the merger of the Trust with and into the Corporation, and that certain
Investment Agreement (the "Investment Agreement"), dated as of June 18, 1998,
by and among Framingham York Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts
limited partnership ("FYA"), the Trust and the Corporation, relating to the
proposed purchase by FYA of shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share,
of the Corporation. The parties to the Investment Agreement wish to amend the
Investment Agreement in the manner specified herein, and the parties to the
Merger Agreement wish to amend the Merger Agreement in the manner specified
herein. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Investment Agreement.
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Sections 9.1(b) and 9.1(c) of the Investment Agreement are hereby amended
by deleting the reference therein to "September 30, 1998" and by substituting
therefor "November 30, 1998."
2. Section 9.1 of the Investment Agreement is hereby amended to include new
subsection 9.1(e) which shall provide the following:
"(e) by the Trust, if the Company or the Trust shall have failed to file
a Registration Statement on Form S-4 containing the proxy statement of
the Trust and the registration statement of the Company, as required in
connection with the Transaction Documents, with the SEC on or prior to
September 30, 1998."
3. Section 11.10(b) of the Investment Agreement is hereby amended by adding
the following at the end of such Section:
"In addition to the foregoing, FYA will (i) commencing on August 1, 1998 and
terminating at the earlier to occur of (A) the Closing or (B) the termination
of the Investment Agreement, pay to the Trust the sum of $50,000 per month to
reimburse the Trust for its general office and employee expenses; and (ii)
commencing on October 1, 1998 and terminating at the earlier to occur of (A)
the Closing or (B) the termination of the Investment Agreement, reimburse the
Trust for the entire amount of the Trust's office rent. All payments referred
to in the preceding sentence shall be received by the Trust no later than the
fifth day of each month. At the Closing, the Trust will pay to FYA $100,000
less the sum of (x) $5,000, which is the approximate cost of legal and
accounting services for preparing the Form 10-Q for the Trust's third fiscal
quarter and (y) an amount equal to $9,000 per month for each month which
elapses between October 1, 1998 and the Closing, which is the approximate cost
to the shareholders of the Trust for any delay subsequent to October 1, 1998 in
the receipt
of the special dividend to be declared immediately prior to the Closing. If the
Closing fails to occur, the Trust shall not be obligated to pay FYA any amounts
pursuant to the preceding sentence. Upon the Closing or the termination of the
Investment Agreement, as applicable, any monthly amounts due hereunder shall be
prorated on a daily basis for the month in which the Closing occurs. Any
amounts owed by the Trust or FYA as a result of such proration shall be paid
promptly following the Closing or termination of the Investment Agreement, as
applicable."
4. Section 7 of the Merger Agreement is hereby amended to provided the
following:
"In addition, the Merger Agreement shall be terminated if, and as such
time as, the Investment Agreement is terminated."
5. The parties hereby ratify and confirm that they continue to be bound by
the terms and provisions of each of the Investment Agreement and the Merger
Agreement, which, as expressly modified hereby, shall continue in full force
and effect.
6. This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to agreements
made and to be performed entirely within such State.
7. This letter agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original of all which when taken together shall be deemed one and
the same instrument.
If the foregoing correctly sets forth the agreement reached between the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, please so acknowledge
by executing a copy of this agreement in the space indicated below.
Sincerely,
PROPERTY CAPITAL TRUST
