2.1 GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES. Subject to the provisions of this
Agreement, Manager shall manage, operate and maintain the Property in a
first-class manner and in accordance with the Approved Annual Business Plan.
Manager shall perform its duties hereunder: (a) in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement; (b) in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and
regulations, including the Legal Requirements; and (c) in accordance with the
standards and practices of prudent and qualified managers that manage properties
similar to the Property on behalf of institutional owners or investors.
2.2 MANAGER'S PERSONNEL; INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.
(a) Manager shall have in its employ at all times a sufficient
number of capable employees to enable it to properly, adequately, safely
and economically manage, operate, maintain and account for the Property and
otherwise perform its obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and Approved Annual Business Plan. Owner acknowledges that
Manager may employ personnel either directly or through its affiliate,
Bainbridge Communities Management, Inc. ("Manager's Affiliate"), but
Manager shall be directly responsible for all employees for all purposes of
this Agreement.
(b) All matters relating to the employment, supervision,
compensation, promotion and discharge of such employees are the
responsibility of Manager (with respect to which Manager shall exercise
reasonable care); Manager (or Manager's Affiliate, as applicable) is in all
respects the employer of such employees. Manager (or Manager's Affiliate,
as applicable) shall negotiate with any union lawfully entitled to
represent such employees and may execute in its own name, and not as agent
for Owner,
9
collective bargaining agreements or labor contracts resulting therefrom.
Manager and represents that it and Manager's Affiliate are and will
continue to be equal opportunity employers and that they will advertise as
such. This Agreement is not one of agency by Manager for Owner, but one
with Manager engaged independently in the business of managing properties
as an independent contractor. All employment arrangements are therefore
solely Manager's responsibility and Owner shall not have any liability with
respect thereto. Except as set forth in SECTION 2.4 below, nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to permit Manager to charge Owner, or to
use the income of the Property to pay, for the services of Manager's
employees.
(c) Manager and Manager's Affiliate shall fully comply with all
applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders relating to worker's
compensation, social security, unemployment insurance, wages, hours,
working conditions and other matters pertaining to their respective
personnel. Manager shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Owner
Related Entities from and against all Damages arising out of or relating to
Manager's failure to comply with this SECTION 2.2. Manager's
indemnification obligations under this SECTION 2.2(c) shall survive the
termination or expiration of this Agreement.
(d) Manager shall be solely responsible for its personnel in the
event of the termination of this Agreement.
2.3 EXECUTIVE PERSONNEL; BUILDING MANAGER. EXHIBIT B sets forth the
name of: (a) the senior executive personnel of Manager and/or Manager's
Affiliate who will be responsible for the performance of Manager's duties under
this Agreement (the "EXECUTIVE PERSONNEL"); and (b) the on-site building manager
employed by Manager or Manager's Affiliate (the "BUILDING MANAGER"). Any change
in the Executive Personnel or Building Manager shall be subject to Owner's prior
approval.
2.4 SCHEDULE OF EMPLOYEES. Attached hereto as EXHIBIT C is a schedule
(the "REIMBURSABLE EMPLOYEE EXPENSE SCHEDULE") that sets forth: (a) a list of
Manager's or Manager's Affiliate's employees (including the Building Manager)
who shall be employed on-site in the direct management and operation of the
Property; (b) the respective titles and salary of each such employee; (c) the
length of time that each such employee has been employed by Manager or Manager's
Affiliate; (d) whether each such employee works full or part-time (and if they
work part-time, the number of hours they work per week); (e) the cost of salary
and wages that may be charged to the Property for each such employee; and (f)
whether each such employee is bonded or covered under Manager's or Manager's
Affiliate's comprehensive crime insurance policy. The Reimbursable Employee
Expense Schedule shall also identify any employees of Manager or Manager's
Affiliate who are not located at the Property but whose salaries may be charged
to the Property pro rata based upon services actually rendered by such employees
directly to the Property (in which event the Reimbursable Employee Expense
Schedule shall set forth the salaries of such offsite employees and the maximum
percentage thereof that may be charged to the Property). In no event shall
Manager be entitled to charge to the Property any employee-related expenses: (i)
that relate to general or supervising management personnel,
10
accountants or auditors; (ii) for which a separate fee is charged by Manager
pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise; or (iii) that are not specifically set
forth on the approved Reimbursable Employee Expense Schedule. The expenses
chargeable to the Property pursuant to the Reimbursable Employee Expense
Schedule may be modified from time to time only as part of the Approved Annual
Business Plan or as otherwise agreed upon by Owner and Manager in writing.
2.5 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, LICENSES, MORTGAGES, ETC.
(a) Manager will be responsible (at Owner's expense) for
compliance with the Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements. Manager,
with the prior approval of Owner (and at Owner's expense), will promptly
remedy any violation of any such requirements, provided that in the case of
emergency, or imminent threat to the health, safety or welfare of tenants
or any other person, or if so ordered by a governmental authority, Manager
shall promptly remedy such violation, provided sufficient funds are
available, and notify Owner as soon as practical, and in any event no later
than the end of the next Business Day. Manager shall notify Owner and
recommend any repairs or changes to the Property or operation thereof which
will be required under proposed changes in laws, ordinances and
regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager shall obtain Owner's
prior written approval before engaging any legal counsel or commencing or
appearing in any legal proceeding on behalf of Owner.
(b) Manager shall, at Owner's expense, obtain and maintain all
Licenses. Manager shall provide Owner with copies of all completed initial
or renewal License applications for Owner's prior approval and signature,

Property, provided that Manager has copies of such agreements.

expense, maintain its legal existence and good standing and obtain and
maintain in effect all licenses and permits necessary or desirable to carry
out its duties hereunder.

reasonable efforts to ensure that all employees and/or contractors who
perform work at or for the Property have all required Licenses and comply
with all Legal Requirements.
(f) The Manager shall, at Owner's expense, implement and
maintain an ongoing environmental auditing program reasonably satisfactory
to Owner and any lender to Owner pursuant to which it shall conduct
periodic investigations regarding the compliance of activities at the
Property with applicable environmental laws, and the
11
existence of and potential for contamination. The results of such
environmental audit shall be provided to the Owner. Without limiting the
foregoing, Manager shall be responsible for maintaining and ensuring
compliance with all operations and maintenance manuals, programs and
procedures with respect to all customary environmental issues, including
but not limited to, mold, lead paint and asbestos, if any.
2.6 SECURITY. Subject to the Approved Annual Business Plan, Manager
shall, at Owner's expense, maintain or cause to be maintained a security program

with respect to security matters.

this Agreement, Manager shall prepare and submit to Owner for Owner's prior
approval an annual business and leasing plan in accordance with the
requirements of EXHIBIT D hereto (as such EXHIBIT D may be modified by
Owner from time to time) (the "ANNUAL BUSINESS PLAN"). The Annual Business
Plan shall be a comprehensive plan for the management, operation, leasing,
repair, maintenance and promotion of the Property and for the other matters
set forth on EXHIBIT D. Manager shall consult the Owner concerning the
proposed Annual Business Plan and shall promptly incorporate therein such
changes as Owner may direct. The Annual Business Plan, and all budgets
contained therein, shall be in a form consistent with the Reporting
Package.
(b) Manager shall: (i) perform its duties hereunder in
accordance with the Approved Annual Business Plan; and (ii) use all
reasonable efforts to ensure that the actual costs of maintaining and
operating the Property do not exceed the operating budget (the "OPERATING
BUDGET") which is a part of the Approved Annual Business Plan either in
total or in any one accounting category. All actual expenses must be
charged to the proper account on a basis consistent with the Operating
Budget classifications and Reporting Package. Except in case of emergencies
which could reasonably pose a threat of injury to persons or property, in
which event Manager shall inform Owner of such emergency within two (2)
business days, no expense may be reclassified except as needed to correct
an inadvertent error. Manager will secure Owner's prior approval for any
expenditure that will result in a variance of the greater of $5,000 or 5%
of the annual budgeted amount in any one accounting line item of the
Operating Budget. In addition, Manager shall obtain Owner's prior approval
for any expenditure in excess of $5,000, regardless of whether such
expenditure is set forth in the Approved Annual Business Plan.
12
(c) Owner shall have the right to require changes in the
Approved Annual Business Plan from time to time; provided, however, that
Owner shall provide Manager with at least fifteen (15) days' notice of such
changes.
2.10 SERVICE CONTRACTS.

the form of the contract has been approved by Owner) shall negotiate and
enter into bona fide contracts with parties that are not Affiliates of
Manager for terms no longer than one (1) year for electricity, gas, fuel,
water, telephone, window cleaning, ash or rubbish hauling, vermin
extermination, janitorial services, landscape maintenance and such other
maintenance services for the Property as Manager shall reasonably determine
to be advisable ("SERVICE CONTRACTS"). All Service Contracts: (i) shall be
in the name of Owner, (ii) shall be freely assignable, at Owner's option,
to Owner's nominee and (iii) shall be terminable by Owner, at Owner's
election, upon no more than thirty (30) days' notice without penalty or
premium. Each Service Contract shall provide that the service provider
thereunder must obtain the insurance described in SECTION 3.4 hereof and
must provide satisfactory evidence of such insurance to Manager. Unless
Owner specifically waives such requirement, all Service Contracts shall be
subject to bid every three (3) years or more frequently if deemed necessary
by Owner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager shall not, without the
prior written consent of Owner, enter into any Service Contract unless
provided for in the Approved Annual Business Plan.
(b) EXHIBIT E lists all Service Contracts in existence as of the
date of this Agreement and, for each such contract, accurately sets forth
the contract date, the name of the service provider, the nature of the
service and the length and economic terms of the contract. Manager shall
promptly update EXHIBIT E so that it at all times contains an accurate and
complete description of Service Contracts affecting the Property.
2.11 COLLECTION OF RENTS AND OTHER INCOME. Subject to SECTION 2.13(b),
Manager will use diligent efforts to collect all rents and other charges which
may become due at any time from any tenant or from others in connection with or

compliance with their respective leases. Manager will collect and identify any
income from miscellaneous services provided to tenants or the public from

conducted in a manner satisfactory to Owner and in accordance with the
13
Approved Annual Business Plan.
2.13 REPAIRS. Manager shall, at Owner's expense, make all ordinary and
extraordinary repairs, decorations and alterations of the Property, subject to
the limits of the Approved Annual Business Plan. Manager shall not make
expenditures for capital improvements unless the same are specifically set forth
in the Approved Annual Business Plan or are otherwise approved by Owner. Manager
may not make expenditures for any repair which exceed $5,000 unless approved by
Owner or specifically set forth in the Approved Annual Business Plan; provided,
however, Manager may make expenditures for repairs without Owner's prior
approval if it is necessary to prevent imminent damage to the Property or the
health or safety of any person on or about the Property or if Owner is
threatened with immediate criminal or civil liability. Owner must be informed of
any such expenditures as quickly as possible, and in any event not later than
the end of the next Business Day.

ARTICLE 3. INSURANCE AND CLAIMS
3.1 OWNER'S INSURANCE AND RIGHTS. Manager, as an operating expense of
the Property payable from the Operating Account, will obtain and keep in force
adequate property and commercial liability insurance covering Owner as primary
insured and, with respect to liability insurance, Manager as additional insured,
and otherwise in accordance with any loan documents related to any financing to
which Owner or the Property is subject. Manager shall provide Owner with copies
of policies or certificates of insurance relating to the Property. Such
insurance may be blanketed with other insurance carried by Manager or any
Affiliate of Manager, in which case a pro rata share of the premiums will be
chargeable to the Property as an operating expense. Manager or Manager's insurer
will have the exclusive right (chargeable, at Owner's option, as an operating
expense of the Property) to conduct the defense of any claim, demand or suit
arising out of the ownership, operation or management of the Property. Nothing
herein will be construed as indemnifying Manager or its employees, contractors
or agents against any act or omission for which insurance protection is not
available or is not required hereunder to be carried by Owner and procured by
Manager; neither is the foregoing intended to affect the general requirement of
this Agreement that the Property will be managed, operated and maintained in a
safe condition and in a proper and careful manner. Owner will furnish whatever
information is reasonably requested by Manager for the purpose of placement of
insurance coverages and will aid and cooperate in every reasonable way with
respect to such insurance and any claim or loss thereunder. Owner will cooperate
with Manager and Manager's insurance carrier on loss control inspections,
responding to recommendations and other safety issues.
3.2 MANAGER'S INSURANCE. Manager will maintain (as an operating expense
of the Property with respect to on-site employees only) Workers' Compensation
and similar insurance as required by law. Manager may maintain, at Manager's
expense, Commercial General Liability Insurance. Manager will maintain the
following insurance at its own expense (not
16
chargeable to the Property):
(a) Employer's Liability - $500,000 each accident; $500,000
disease - policy limit; $500,000 disease - each employee.
(b) Automobile Liability - As to any vehicle owned, non-owned or
hired by Manager, $1,000,000 covering losses due to the insurer's liability
for bodily injury or property damage.
(c) Medical Expenses - $5,000 per person per accident.
(d) Uninsured/Underinsured Motorists' Coverage for any owned car
- $1,000,000.
(e) Comprehensive crime (including Employee Dishonesty)
insurance with limits and terms acceptable to Owner or a fidelity bond
acceptable to Owner.
(f) Excess Liability Coverage - $5,000,000.
The minimum A.M. Best's rating of each insurer is A-IX. Manager will
furnish Owner with certificates of insurance simultaneously with the execution
of this Agreement and whenever coverage is renewed or replaced, evidencing the
aforesaid coverages, which will include provisions to the effect that Owner will
be given at least 30 days' prior written notice of cancellation or non-renewal
of or any material change in any of the aforesaid policies. Owner, and any
lender of Owner, if applicable, will be named as an additional insured with
respect to all insurance policies required under (b) and (d) above and as loss
payee as respects (c) above. All liability policies shall contain endorsements
that (i) delete any employee exclusion on personal injury coverage, (ii) include
employees as additional insureds and (iii) contain cross-liability, waiver of
subrogation and such other provisions as Owner may reasonably require. Such
insurance shall also include broad form contractual liability insurance insuring
all of Manager's indemnification obligations under this Agreement.
3.3 INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Manager shall indemnify, hold harmless, protect and defend
(with counsel approved by Owner) the Owner Related Entities from and
against all Damages in any manner related to, arising out of or resulting
from:
(i) any failure of Manager or Manager's agents, servants
or employees to perform their obligations under this Agreement;
(ii) any acts of Manager or Manager's agents, servants or
employees which such person does not reasonably believe is within
the scope of its authority under this Agreement; or
(iii) any negligence, willful misconduct or other wrongful
acts or
17
omissions of Manager or Manager's agents, servants or employees.
If the circumstances or events described in clauses (i) through (iii) are
covered by Owner's commercial general liability insurance, then Manager's
obligations under this SECTION 3.3 shall apply only to the extent Owner's
Damages are not fully paid by Owner's commercial general liability insurance.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary,
Manager's obligations under this SECTION 3.3 shall survive the expiration,
termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
(b) Subject to SECTION 16.18, Owner shall protect, defend,
indemnify and hold harmless Manager from and against any and all Damages
arising out of the performance by Manager of its obligations and duties
hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof with respect to the Property;
provided, however, that Owner does not hereby agree, and shall not be
obligated, to so indemnify Manager from any Damages arising out of any act
or omission of Manager or any of its agents, officers, employees or
representatives, which act or omission constitutes negligence, willful
misconduct, is in breach of this Agreement or is outside the scope of
Manager's authority as provided herein or any Damages for which Manager is
covered by insurance, or for which Manager would be covered by insurance if
it maintained the insurance required by this Agreement.
3.4 CONTRACTORS' AND SUBCONTRACTORS' INSURANCE. Manager will require
that all parties performing work on or with respect to the Property, including,
contractors, subcontractors and service vendors, maintain insurance coverage at
such parties' expense, in the following minimum amounts:

(f) Commercial General Liability: Bodily injury and property
damage - $1,000,000 combined single limit with Contractual Liability
coverage.
(g) Excess Liability Coverage - $5,000,000 or such greater
amount as is needed for the specific job.
(h) Transit Coverage - As needed for the specific job.
The minimum A.M. Best's rating of each insurer is A-IX. Manager must obtain
18
Owner's written permission to waive any of the above requirements. Higher
amounts may be required by Owner if the work to be performed is deemed by Owner
to be hazardous. Manager will obtain and keep on file a certificate of insurance
which shows that each such party is so insured. Owner, and any lender of Owner,
if applicable, will be named as an additional insured with respect to
Contractors' and Subcontractors' Auto Liability, Commercial General Liability
and Excess Liability policies. Manager must obtain indemnification and hold
harmless provisions in favor of Owner and Manager.
3.5 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Insofar as, and to the extent that, the
following provision may be effective without invalidating or making it
impossible to obtain insurance, Manager and Owner agree that with respect to any
hazard, liability, casualty or other loss or claim which is covered by insurance
then being carried by either Owner or Manager: (a) the party carrying such
insurance and suffering such loss releases the other party of and from any and
all claims with respect to such loss to the extent of the insurance proceeds
paid with respect thereto and specifically excepting from such release any
deductible required to be paid therewith; and (b) their respective insurance
companies shall have no right of subrogation against the other or their
respective agents, contractors, employees, licensees or invitees on account
thereof.
3.6 SERVICE CONTRACTS. Manager shall use all reasonable efforts to
include in all Service Contracts provisions requiring the service provider to
indemnify, defend (with counsel approved by Owner), protect and hold harmless
the Owner Related Entities from all Damages in any manner arising from or
related to the acts or omissions of such service provider or its employees,
agents or contractors.
3.7 CLAIMS. Manager shall promptly investigate and make a full and
timely report to Owner of any casualty, accident, injury or other similar matter
affecting the Property. Manager shall also file such reports in a timely manner
to the applicable insurance carriers in accordance with the terms and conditions
of the relevant policies. Manager shall cooperate with and assist Owner and the
applicable insurance carrier in connection with the investigation and processing
of insurance claims affecting the Property.
ARTICLE 4. FINANCIAL REPORTING AND RECORD KEEPING
4.1 FINANCIAL CONTROLS. Manager will ensure such control over
accounting and financial transactions as is reasonably required to protect
Owner's assets from theft, negligence or fraudulent activity on the part of
Manager's employees or other agents. Uninsured losses arising from theft,
negligence or fraud of Manager, its employees or agents are to be borne by
Manager in its individual capacity and not as an operating expense of the
Property.
4.2 FINANCIAL REPORTS: GENERAL REQUIREMENTS. All financial reports

provision of services at the Property, after deducting (a) an amount agreed to

ARTICLE 16. MISCELLANEOUS
16.1 WORD MEANINGS. Words such as "herein," "hereinafter," "hereof" and
"hereunder" when used in reference to this Agreement, refer to this Agreement as
a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear, unless the
context otherwise requires. The singular shall include the plural and the
masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter, and vice versa, unless
the context otherwise requires. The word "including" shall not be restrictive
and shall be interpreted as if followed by the words "without limitation."
16.2 ASSIGNMENT. Without Owner's prior consent, which Owner may withhold
in its absolute discretion, Manager shall not transfer, assign, subcontract or
delegate its duties under this Agreement, and any attempted transfer,
assignment, subcontract or delegation without such consent shall be of no force
or effect. The services of Manager hereunder are personal in nature.

agreements contained herein shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of,
the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the respective
parties hereto.
16.4 APPLICABLE LAW. The interpretation, construction and enforceability
of this Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the state in
which the Property is located without regard to any choice of law principles.
Any legal proceedings arising out of any of the transactions or obligations
contemplated by this Agreement may be brought in the state courts of The
Commonwealth of
Massachusetts or the United States District Court for the
District of
Massachusetts. The parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally:
(a) submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and agree to take any and all
future action necessary to submit to such jurisdiction; (b) waive any objection
which they may now or hereafter have to the venue of any suit, action or
proceeding brought in such courts; and (c) waive any claim that any such suit,
action or proceeding brought in such court has been brought in an inconvenient

16.5 SEPARABILITY OF PROVISIONS. The parties hereto intend and believe
that each provision in this Agreement comports with all applicable local, state
and federal laws and judicial decisions. If any provision in this Agreement is,
however, found by a court of law to be in violation of any applicable local,
state, or federal law, statute, ordinance, administrative or judicial decision,
or public policy, or if in any other respect such a court declares any such
32
provision to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written,
then it is the intent of all parties hereto that, consistent with and with a
view towards preserving the economic and legal arrangements among the parties
hereto as expressed in this Agreement, such provision shall be given force and
effect to the fullest possible extent, and that the remainder of this Agreement
shall be construed as if such illegal, invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable
provision were not contained herein, and that the rights, obligations, and
interests of the parties under the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in
full force and effect. Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered
separable and if for any reason any provision or provisions herein are
determined to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal under any existing or future
law, such invalidity, unenforceability or illegality shall not impair the
operation of or affect those portions of this Agreement which are valid,
enforceable and legal.
16.6 SECTION TITLES. Section titles are for descriptive purposes only
and shall not control or alter the meaning of this Agreement as set forth in the
text.

such further instruments and do such further acts and things as may reasonably
be required to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.
16.8 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the Schedules and Exhibits
attached hereto constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with
respect to the transactions contemplated herein, and supersede all prior
understandings or agreements between the parties. All Exhibits and Schedules are
incorporated herein by reference and constitute a part of this Agreement.
16.9 WAIVER. The failure by any party hereto to insist upon or to
enforce any of its rights shall not constitute a waiver thereof, and nothing
shall constitute a waiver of such party's right to insist upon strict compliance
with the provisions hereof. No delay in exercising any right, power or remedy
created hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, power or remedy by any such party preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
remedy. No waiver by any party hereto to any breach of or default in any term or
condition of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of or assent to any
succeeding breach of or default in the same or any other term or condition
hereof. Each party hereto may waive the benefit of any provision or condition
for its benefit contained in this Agreement, but only if such waiver is
evidenced by a writing signed by such party.
16.10 AGREEMENT IN COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in
multiple counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original and all
shall constitute one and the same Agreement, binding upon all of the parties
hereto, notwithstanding that all of the parties may not be signatories to the
same counterpart.
16.11 ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event of a judicial or administrative
proceeding or action by one party against the other party with respect to the
interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover reasonable costs and expenses including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, whether at the
33
investigative, pretrial, trial or appellate level, and whether in any
arbitration or bankruptcy proceeding. The prevailing party shall be determined
based upon an assessment of which party's major arguments or positions
prevailed.

obligation hereunder expires on a day other than a Business Day, the time for
performance shall be extended to the next day which is a Business Day.

be deemed effective unless in writing and signed by all of the parties hereto.
16.14 TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.
16.15 CONSTRUCTION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall not be construed
more strictly against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the
fact that it may have been prepared primarily by counsel for one of the parties.
No provision of this Agreement shall run to the benefit of or be enforceable by
any party other than the parties hereto and their permitted successors or
assigns.
16.16 CONSENT AND APPROVALS. Owner's consents or approvals may be given
only in writing and only by representatives of Owner from time to time
designated in writing by Owner.

circumstances induce tenants of the Property to move to space at any property
listed on EXHIBIT G or any other Competing Property.
