(v) Agent may in its sole and absolute discretion exercise, or refrain from the exercise of, all membership rights, powers and privileges to the same extent as Pledgor is entitled to exercise such rights, powers and privileges;

(vi) Agent may, in connection with a sale of the Pledged Interests, cause any purchaser of all or any part of any Pledged Interests to be admitted as a new member or owner of Senior Mezzanine Borrower to the extent of such Pledged Interests, and cause Pledgor to withdraw as a member or owner of Senior Mezzanine Borrower to the extent such Pledged Interests are sold, and complete by inserting the Effective Date (as defined therein) and the name of the assignee thereunder and deliver to such assignee the Assignment of Interest executed and delivered by Pledgor .

(vii) Agent may exercise any and all rights and remedies of Pledgor under or in connection with the Charter Documents or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any and all rights of Pledgor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provisions of, the Charter Documents; and

(viii) all payments received, directly or indirectly, by Pledgor under or in connection with the Charter Documents or otherwise in respect of the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of Agent (for the benefit of Lender), shall be segregated from other funds of Pledgor and shall be forthwith paid over to Agent (for the benefit of Lender) in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

The proceeds of any collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 7(d) shall be applied by Agent pursuant to Section 7(f) hereof.

Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, Pledgor agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for public sale.

(e) Private Sale. Agent and Lender shall not incur any liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 7(d) hereof conducted in a commercially reasonable manner, it being agreed that some or all of the Collateral is or may be of one or more types that threaten to decline speedily in value and that are not customarily sold in a recognized market. Pledgor hereby waives any claims against Agent or Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Pledgor Obligations, even if Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree. The Uniform Commercial Code states that the Agent and Lender are able to purchase the Pledged Interests only if they are sold at a public sale. Agent has advised Pledgor that SEC staff personnel have issued various No-Action Letters describing procedures which, in the view of the SEC staff, permit a foreclosure sale of securities to occur in a manner that is public for purposes of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, yet not public for purposes of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The Uniform Commercial Code permits Pledgor to agree on the standards for determining whether Agent has complied with its obligations under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, Pledgor specifically agrees (x) that it shall not raise any objection to Agent or Lender’s purchase of the Pledged Interests (through bidding on the Pledgor Obligations or otherwise) and (y) that a foreclosure sale conducted in conformity with the principles set forth in such No-Action Letters (i) shall be considered to be a “public” sale for purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code; (ii) will be considered commercially reasonable notwithstanding that Agent has not registered or sought to register the Pledged Interests under the Securities Laws, even if Pledgor or Senior Mezzanine Borrower agrees to pay all costs of the registration process; and (iii) shall be considered to be commercially reasonable notwithstanding that Agent and/or Lender purchases the Pledged Interests at such a sale.

(f) Application of Proceeds. Except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant hereto, and any other cash at the time held by Agent (for the benefit of Lender) under this Section 7, shall be applied by Agent:

First, to the payment of the reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such collection, sale or other realization, including reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses of Agent or Lender (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its outside counsel), and all reasonable third party costs and expenses made or incurred by Agent or Lender in connection therewith;

Next, to the payment in full of the Pledgor Obligations; and

Finally, to the payment to Pledgor, or its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining.

As used in this Section 7, “proceeds” of Collateral shall mean cash, securities and other property realized in respect of, and distributions in kind of, Collateral, including any thereof received under any reorganization, liquidation or adjustment of debt of Pledgor or any issuer of or obligor on any of the Collateral.

(g) Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Pledge Agreement to Agent, Agent is hereby appointed the attorney‑in‑fact of Pledgor for the purpose of, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, carrying out the provisions of this Section 7 and taking any action and executing any instruments which Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney‑in‑fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as Agent shall be entitled under this Section 7 to make collections in respect of the Collateral, Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of Pledgor representing any payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall not exercise its rights pursuant to such appointment except during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(h) Confirmation Statement; Control Agreement. To better assure the perfection of the security interest of Agent in the Pledged Interests, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Pledge Agreement, Pledgor shall send written instructions in the form of Exhibit C hereto to Senior Mezzanine Borrower, and shall cause Senior Mezzanine Borrower to, and Senior Mezzanine Borrower shall, deliver to Agent the Confirmation Statement and Control Agreement in the form of Exhibit D hereto pursuant to which Senior Mezzanine Borrower will confirm that it has registered the pledge effected by this Pledge Agreement on its books and agrees, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to comply with the instructions of Agent in respect of the Pledged Interests without further consent of Pledgor or any other Person.

(i) Opinion of Counsel. Pledgor shall cause to be delivered to Agent concurrently herewith, an opinion of counsel to Pledgor, acceptable to Agent in its reasonable discretion, with respect to the authority of, and due execution and delivery by, Pledgor, and the enforceability of the Pledge Agreement.

(j) Non-Recourse. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Agent shall not enforce any liability of Pledgor to perform or observe the obligations contained in this Pledge

Agreement by an action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Pledgor, except that Agent may bring a foreclosure action or other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Agent to enforce and realize upon the security interest hereunder; provided, however, that any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Pledgor only to the extent of Pledgor’s interest in the Collateral. Agent, by accepting this Pledge Agreement, agrees that it shall not ▇▇▇ for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Pledgor in any such action or proceeding under, or by reason of or in connection with this Pledge Agreement.

8. Termination. Upon the indefeasible payment and performance in full of all Pledgor Obligations, this Pledge Agreement shall terminate and Agent shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of Pledgor. Agent’s obligation to so assign, transfer and deliver shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) No Waiver. No failure on the part of Agent or any of its agents to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by Agent or any of its agents of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

(b) Waiver of Trial By Jury. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT AGREES TO WAIVE IRREVOCABLY ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE DOCUMENTS REFERRED TO IN THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED IN THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT. This waiver is intended to apply to all disputes, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise. Each party acknowledges that (i) this waiver is a material inducement to enter into this Pledge Agreement, (ii) it has already relied on this waiver in entering into this Pledge Agreement and (iii) it will continue to rely on this waiver in future dealings. Each party represents that it has reviewed this waiver with its legal advisers and that it knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights after consultation with its legal advisers. In the event of litigation, this Pledge Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT WAS NEGOTIATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE LOAN WAS MADE BY LENDER AND ACCEPTED BY PLEDGOR IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND THE PROCEEDS OF THE LOAN DELIVERED PURSUANT TO THE LOAN AGREEMENT WERE DISBURSED FROM THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WHICH STATE THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREE HAS A SUBSTANTIAL RELATIONSHIP TO THE PARTIES AND TO THE UNDERLYING TRANSACTION EMBODIED HEREBY, AND IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS PLEDGE

(f) Successors and Assigns.

Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any assignment of the Loan in accordance with the Loan Agreement, Agent may assign or otherwise transfer all of its rights and remedies under this Pledge Agreement to the assignee and such assignee shall thereupon become vested with all of the rights and obligations in respect thereof granted to Agent herein or otherwise.

Agent shall have no duty to collect any sums due in respect of any of the Collateral in its possession or control, or to enforce, protect or preserve any rights pertaining thereto, and neither Agent nor Lender shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, or for any delay in so doing, nor shall Agent or Lender be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto. Agent shall, if requested by the payor of any revenue payment, give receipts for any payments received by Agent on account of the Collateral.

The proxy and powers granted to Agent by Pledgor pursuant to this Pledge Agreement are coupled with an interest and are given to secure the performance of Pledgor’s obligations under this Pledge Agreement. The proxy granted and appointed in this Section 9(n) shall include the right, to sign Pledgor’s name (as a member of the related Senior Mezzanine Borrower) to any consent, certificate or other document relating to an Article 8 Matter and the Collateral that applicable law may permit or require, to cause the Collateral to be voted in accordance with the preceding sentence. Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that there are no other proxies and/or powers of attorney with respect to any Article 8 Matter and the Collateral that Pledgor may have granted or appointed. Pledgor will not give a subsequent proxy or power of attorney or enter into any other voting agreement with respect to the Collateral with respect to any Article 8 Matter and any attempt to do so with respect to an Article 8 Matter shall be void and of no effect. As used herein, an “Article 8 Matter” means any actions, decision, determination or election by Senior Mezzanine Borrower or its member that its limited liability company interests or other equity interests be, or cease to be, a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code (including Section 8-102(a)(15) thereof) as in effect from time to time in the State of Delaware, Article 8 of the New York Code and Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction that now or hereafter substantially includes the 1994 revisions to Article 8 thereof as adopted by the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners

on Uniform State Laws and approved by the American Bar Association on February 14, 1995, and all other matters related to any such action, decision, determination or election.

(o) Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything in this Pledge to the contrary, Agent shall have no recourse against, nor shall there be any personal liability to, the members of Pledgor (other than Guarantor under the Guaranty, Environmental Indemnity and any other Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party), or to the shareholders, members, partners, beneficial interest holders or any other entity or person in the ownership (direct or indirect) of Pledgor with respect to the obligations of Pledgor under this Pledge Agreement. For purposes of clarification, in no event shall the above language limit, reduce or otherwise affect any of Pledgor’s liability or obligations under the Loan Documents, Pledgor’s liability and obligations under this Pledge Agreement, or Agent’s rights to exercise any rights or remedies against any collateral securing the Loan.

INSTRUCTION TO REGISTER PLEDGE

[______________], 2017

To: [______________]

[______________]

In accordance with the requirements of that certain Junior Mezzanine Pledge and Security Agreement, dated of even date herewith (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Pledge Agreement”), between ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ MORTGAGE CAPITAL HOLDINGS LLC (together with its successors and assigns, “Pledgee”), and 110 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ JUNIOR MEZZ III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Pledgor”), you are hereby instructed, to assure the perfection of the security interest of Agent in the membership interests described below, to register the pledge of the following interests in the name of Pledgee as follows:

All of the membership interests of Pledgor in 110 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ MEZZ III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Senior Mezzanine Borrower”), including without limitation, all of the following property now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by Pledgor or in which Pledgor now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest:
