of the Capital Replacements identified on Exhibit B.
(d) Deferral of Deposits. Notwithstanding subsections 2(a) through
(c) above, Lender defers its right to require Borrower to make
the Replacement Reserve Deposit. However, at the end of the
Review Period or any Subsequent Review Period, Lender reserves
the right to require that Borrower begin making the

that the physical condition of the Property warrants that
Borrower begin making such deposit. Lender's determination to
require such deposit shall not depend on the existence of any
of the events set forth in subsection (e) below.

(i) Borrower's default under the Note, Security
Instrument, or any other document delivered in

(iii) Borrower's failure to maintain the Property in a
satisfactory manner and/or in accordance with the
requirements of the Security Instrument.
3. Performance of Capital Replacements; Disbursements.
(a) Requests for Disbursement. Lender shall disburse funds from
the Replacement Reserve Fund, in its sole discretion, as
follows:
(i) Borrower's Request. If Borrower determines, at any
time or from time to time, that a Capital Replacement
is necessary or desirable, Borrower shall perform
such Capital Replacement and request from Lender, in
writing, reimbursement for such Capital Replacement.
Borrower's request for reimbursement shall include
(A) a detailed description of the Capital Replacement
performed, together with evidence, satisfactory to
Lender, that the cost of such Capital Replacement has
been paid and (B) lien waivers from each contractor
and material supplier supplying labor or materials
for such Capital Replacement, if required by Lender.
(ii) Lender's Request. If Lender shall reasonably
determine at any time or from time to time, that a
Capital Replacement is necessary for the proper
maintenance of the Property, it shall so notify
Borrower, in writing, requesting that Borrower obtain
and submit to Lender bids for all labor and
PAGE 4
Exhibit 10.4.3
materials required in connection with such Capital
Replacement. Borrower shall submit such bids and a
time schedule for completing each Capital Replacement
to Lender within thirty (30) days after Borrower's
receipt of Lender's written notice. Borrower shall
perform such Capital Replacement and request from
Lender, in writing, reimbursement for such Capital
Replacement. Borrower's request for reimbursement
shall include (A) a detailed description of the
Capital Replacement performed, together with
evidence, satisfactory to Lender, that the cost of
such Capital Replacement has been paid and (B) lien
waivers from each contractor and material supplier
supplying labor or materials for such Capital
Replacement, if required by Lender.
(b) Conditions Precedent. Disbursement from the Replacement
Reserve Fund shall be made no more frequently than once every
Disbursement Period and, except for the final disbursement, no
disbursement shall be made in an amount less than the Minimum
Disbursement Request Amount. Disbursements shall be made only
if the following conditions precedent have been satisfied, as
reasonably determined by Lender:
(i) Payment for Capital Replacement. The Capital
Replacement has been performed and/or installed on
the Property in a good and workmanlike manner with
suitable materials (or in the case of a partial
disbursement, performed and/or installed on the
Property to an acceptable stage) and paid for by
Borrower as evidenced by copies of all applicable
paid invoices or bills submitted to Lender by
Borrower at the time Borrower requests disbursement
from the Replacement Reserve Fund.
(ii) No Default. There is no condition, event or act that
would constitute a default (with or without notice
and/or lapse of time) under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document.
(iii) Representations and Warranties. All representations
and warranties of Borrower set forth in this
Agreement and in the Loan Documents are true in all
material respects.
(iv) Continuing Compliance. Borrower is in full compliance
with the provisions of this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents and any request or demand by Lender
permitted hereby.
(v) No Lien Claim. No lien or claim based on furnishing
labor or materials has been filed or asserted against
the Property, unless Borrower has properly provided
bond or other security against loss in accordance
with applicable law.
PAGE 5
Exhibit 10.4.3
(vi) Approvals. All licenses, permits, and approvals of
governmental authorities required for the Capital
Replacement as completed to the applicable stage have
been obtained.
(vii) Legal Compliance. The Capital Replacement as
completed to the applicable stage does not violate
any laws, ordinance, rules or regulations, or
building lines or restrictions applicable to the
Property.
4. Right to Complete Capital Replacements. If Borrower abandons or fails
to proceed diligently to undertake and/or complete any Capital
Replacement in a timely fashion or is otherwise in default under this
Agreement for 30 days after written notice of such failure by Lender to
Borrower, Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to enter
upon the Property and take over and cause the completion of such
Capital Replacement. However, no such notice or grace period shall
apply in the case of such failure which could, in Lender's judgment,
absent immediate exercise by Lender of a right or remedy under this
Agreement, result in harm to Lender or impairment of the security given
under the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document. Any contracts
entered into or indebtedness incurred upon the exercise of such right
may be in the name of Borrower, and Lender is hereby irrevocably
appointed the attorney in fact of Borrower, such appointment being
coupled with an interest, to enter into such contracts, incur such
obligations, enforce any contracts or agreements made by or on behalf
of Borrower (including the prosecution and defense of all actions and
proceedings in connection with the Capital Replacement and the payment,
settlement or compromise of all bills and claims for materials and work
performed in connection with the Capital Replacement) and do any and
all things necessary or proper to complete any Capital Replacement
including signing Borrower's name to any contracts and documents as may
be deemed necessary by Lender. In no event shall Lender be required to
expend its own funds to complete any Capital Replacement, but Lender
may, in its sole discretion, advance such funds. Any funds advanced
shall be added to the outstanding balance of the Loan, secured by the
Security Instrument and payable to Lender by Borrower in accordance
with the provisions of the Security Instrument pertaining to the
protection of Lender's security and advances made by Lender. Borrower
waives any and all claims it may have against Lender for materials
used, work performed or resultant damage to the Property.
5. Inspection. Lender or any representative of Lender may periodically
inspect any Capital Replacement in process and upon completion during
normal business hours or at any other reasonable time upon reasonable
prior written notice to Borrower (except in an emergency, as determined
by Lender in its discretion or after an Event of Default, in which
event no such prior notice shall be require). Lender shall be entitled
to deduct the Inspection Fee from the Replacement Reserve Fund for
performing any such inspection. If Lender, in its sole discretion,
retains a professional inspection engineer or other qualified third
party to inspect any Capital Replacement, Lender also shall be entitled
to deduct from the
PAGE 6
Exhibit 10.4.3
Replacement Reserve Fund an amount sufficient to pay all reasonable
fees and expenses charged by such third party inspector.
6. Insufficient Account. If Borrower requests disbursement from the
Replacement Reserve Fund for a Capital Replacement in accordance with
this Agreement in an amount which exceeds the amount on deposit in the
Replacement Reserve Fund, Lender shall disburse to Borrower only the
amount on deposit in the Replacement Reserve Fund. Borrower shall pay
all additional amounts required in connection with any such Capital
Replacement from Borrower's own funds.
7. Security Agreement. To secure Borrower's obligations under this
Agreement and to further secure Borrower's obligations under the Note,
Security Instrument and other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby conveys,
pledges, transfers and grants to Lender a security interest pursuant to
the Uniform Commercial Code of the Property Jurisdiction or any other
applicable law in and to all money in the Replacement Reserve Fund, as
same may increase or decrease from time to time, all interest and
dividends thereon and all proceeds thereof.
8. Post Default. If Borrower defaults in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement or under the Note, Security Instrument
or any other Loan Document, after the expiration of any applicable
notice or cure period, Lender shall have all remedies available to them
under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the Property
Jurisdiction and under any other applicable law. In addition, Lender
may retain all money in the Replacement Reserve Fund, including
interest, and in Lender's discretion, may apply such amounts, without
restriction and without any specific order of priority, to the payment
of any and all indebtedness or obligations of Borrower set forth in the
Note, Security Instrument or any other Loan Document, including, but
not limited to, principal, interest, taxes, insurance, reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs (including those of Lender's in-house
counsel) and disbursements actually incurred and/or repairs to the
Property.
9. Termination. If not sooner terminated by written concurrence of the
parties, this Agreement shall terminate upon the payment in full of the
Loan and all indebtedness incurred in connection therewith and upon
such termination, Lender shall pay to Borrower all funds remaining in
the Replacement Reserve Fund.
10. No Amendment. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to
amend, modify, alter, change or supersede the terms and provisions of
the Note, Security Instrument or any other Loan Document; and, if there
is a conflict between the terms and provisions of this Agreement and
those of the Note, Security Instrument, or any other Loan Document then
the terms and provisions of the Note, Security Instrument or such other
Loan Document shall control.

heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of such parties;

remedies available under this Agreement, at law or in equity. Such
rights and remedies shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be

exercise any such remedies from time to time as often as Lender
chooses.
17. Determinations by Lender. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement,
in any instance where the consent or approval of Lender may be given or

denial of such consent or approval and the rendering of such
determination, judgment or decision shall be made or exercised by

governmental authority or agency. Borrower shall at all times have the
sole responsibility for ensuring that all Capital Replacements are
