The request must be addressed to the AT&T Executive Compensation Administration Department at its then principal place of business.

Claims. Landlord and Landlord’s Representatives shall not be liable to Tenant, any Agent or any other person or entity for any damage, injury, loss or claim based on or arising out of any cause whatsoever (except as otherwise provided in this Section), including without limitation the following: repair to any portion of the Premises or the Building; interruption in the use of the Premises or the Building or any equipment therein; any accident or damage resulting from any use or operation (by Landlord, Tenant or any other person or entity) of elevators or heating, cooling, electrical, sewage or plumbing equipment or apparatus; termination of this Lease by reason of damage to the Premises or the Building; any fire, robbery, theft, vandalism, mysterious disappearance or any other casualty; actions of any other tenant of the Building or of any other person or entity; failure or inability to furnish any service specified in this Lease; and leakage in any part of the Premises or the Building from water, rain, ice or snow that may leak into, or flow from, any part of the Premises or the Building, or from drains, pipes or plumbing fixtures in the Premises or the Building. If any condition exists which may be the basis of a claim of constructive eviction, then Tenant shall give Landlord written notice thereof and a reasonable opportunity to correct such condition, and in the interim, provided Landlord has commenced a cure within such reasonable period of time (not to exceed fifteen (15) days) and is diligently pursuing such cure to completion, Tenant shall not claim that it has been constructively evicted or is entitled to a rent abatement (other than as expressly provided for in this Lease). Except as provided in this Lease, any property placed by Tenant or any Agent in or about the Premises or the Building shall be at the sole risk of Tenant, and Landlord shall not in any manner be held responsible therefor. For purposes of this Article, the term “Building” shall be deemed to include the Land. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, Landlord shall not be released from liability to Tenant for any physical injury to any natural person or damage to property caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s Representatives, except Landlord’s liability for damage to property shall be subject to the waivers of subrogation set forth in this Lease; provided, however, that neither Landlord nor any of Landlord’s Representatives (nor any past, present or future board member, partner, trustee, director, member, officer, employee, agent, representative or advisor of any of them) shall under any circumstances be liable for any exemplary, punitive, consequential or indirect damages (or for any interruption of or loss to business) in connection with or relating to this Lease.

Claims. No claim shall be considered under these administrative procedures unless it is filed with the Plan Administrator within two (2) years after the Participant knew (or reasonably should have known) of the general nature of the dispute giving rise to the claim. Every untimely claim shall be denied by the Plan Administrator without regard to the merits of the claim.

Claims. Such Investor will, from and after the Certification Date, hold at least $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Rights Offering Allowed Claims.
