WHEREAS, the parties have agreed that neither a hotel nor a property with a time share or time interval form of ownership shall be developed on the Third Phase II Site (as defined in the Lease).

WHEREAS, Landlord desires to sell and convey the Third Phase II Site to a third party purchaser and Tenant has consented to Landlord’s sale and conveyance of the Third Phase II Site to said third party purchaser so long as said Third Phase II Site is not developed as a hotel or property with a time share or time interval form of ownership.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual and reciprocal covenants herein made, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Recitals. The Recitals as set forth above are agreed to be true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference.

2. Release. Subject to Landlord’s satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3 below, Tenant hereby forever fully discharges and releases the Third Phase II Site from and against any and all right, title or interest Tenant may have in or to the Third Phase II Site, including, without limitation, rights arising out of, or relating to, the Lease or RCREA or any other contracts, leases, rights to lease, rights to purchase, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, options to lease, options to purchase, options to develop, options to occupy, easements, licenses, rents, profits, notices, filings with governmental authorities, reservations, entitlements and/or development rights.

3. Condition of Release / Grant of Restrictive Covenant. Tenant has agreed to the Release in Section 2 above on the condition that the Third Phase II Site is not developed or utilized as a hotel or property with a time share or time interval form of ownership. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant and hereby covenants to Tenant that any deed of conveyance of the Third Phase II Site shall be subject to the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference as Exhibit “A” (the “Declaration”), and Landlord will record the Declaration in the Public Records of Orange County, Florida prior to the recording of any such deed of conveyance.

Although all references to Hotel Site F have been deleted from the RCREA, the parties acknowledge and agree that the allocations with respect to the Infrastructure Costs set forth in Schedule 4.1 to the RCREA shall not change or be reallocated and, therefore, Landlord shall be responsible for the full cost of the Infrastructure Costs allocated to Hotel Site F pursuant to the RCREA. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13.5(a) of the RCREA, the parties acknowledge and agree that URH shall have no right to elect to have an executive golf course located on the Phase II Sites.

6. Recording of Release. Landlord and Tenant agree that this Release shall be recorded in the Public Records of Orange County, Florida, to give notice thereof.

7. Continued Effect. Except as herein modified, the Lease and RCREA are in full force and effect and each party represents and warrants to the other that neither party is in default under the Lease and that no state of facts exists which, if continued, would create a default by the other party as of the date of this Release. In the event of any conflict between the Lease or the RCREA and this Release, this Release shall control.

b. Property Affected.

This Declaration may not be amended, modified or terminated except if in writing and executed by each owner of the Property, each owner of the UCDP Property and UCF, its successors and/or assigns (if applicable).

b. Nuisance.

d. Specific Remedy. The parties acknowledge that UCDP, UCF, its successors and/or assigns, as lessee of any portion of the UCDP Property, and any subsequent owner of the UCDP Property shall suffer irreparable harm if any owner of the Property shall default in the performance of its obligations pursuant to this Declaration and that such harm cannot adequately be remedied by monetary compensation.

Any party may change its address for such communications by giving notice thereof to all other parties in accordance with the requirements of this section.

7. Applicable Law; Exclusive Jurisdiction. This Declaration shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the state of Florida (i.e.,without reference its conflicts of Laws provisions or the principles of comity). Each party hereto and each subsequent owner consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal and state courts with jurisdiction in Orange County, Florida, for a resolution of all disputes in connection with the interpretation, construction, or enforcement of this Declaration (including, without limitation, any Exhibit attached hereto), and hereby waives the claim or defense that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum.

8. Severability. If any term or provision of this Declaration is finally held, in any non-appealable proceeding by a court of competent jurisdiction, to be invalid or unenforceable, such term or provision shall be deemed limited by construction in scope or effect to the minimum extent necessary to render the same valid and enforceable, and, in the event no such limiting construction is possible, such invalid or unenforceable term or provision shall be deemed severed from this Declaration without affecting the validity of any other term or provision hereof.

9. Construction of Declaration. This Declaration has been negotiated by the respective parties hereto, and the language of this Declaration shall not be construed for or against any party. Whenever from the context of this Declaration it appears appropriate, each term of this Declaration in either the singular or plural shall include both, and pronouns stated in any gender shall include the masculine, the feminine, and the neuter, as appropriate. The parties intend that each covenant contained in this Declaration shall have independent significance. If any party is in breach of any covenant contained in this Declaration in any respect, the fact that there exists another covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) as to which such party is not in breach shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party is in breach of such first described covenant.

10. Entire Declaration; Amendments and Waivers. This Declaration constitutes the entire agreement among the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties hereto. No waiver of any provision of this Declaration shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
