ARTICLE II - GENERAL TERMS

Section 2.1                                   Loan Commitment; Disbursement to Borrower.

2.1.1                     Agreement to Lend and Borrow.  Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender hereby agrees to make and Borrower hereby agrees to accept the Loan on the Closing Date.

2.1.2                     Components of the Loan.  For purposes of the computation of the interest accrued on the Loan from time to time and certain other computations set forth herein, the Loan shall be divided into multiple components designated as “Component A”, “Component B”, “Component C”, “Component D”, “Component E” and “Component F”.  The following table sets forth the initial principal amount of each such Component.

2.1.3                     Single Disbursement to Borrower.  Borrower may request and receive only one (1) borrowing hereunder in respect of the Loan and any amount borrowed and repaid hereunder in respect of the Loan may not be reborrowed.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Loan has been fully funded as of the Closing Date.

2.1.4                     The Note, Mortgages and Loan Documents.  The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note and secured by the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents.

2.1.5                     Use of Proceeds.  Borrower shall use proceeds of the Loan to (a) make initial deposits of the Reserve Funds, (b) make distributions to Equity Owner, (c) pay costs and expenses incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan and the related Securitization, and (d) to the extent any proceeds remain after satisfying clauses (a) through (c) above, for such lawful purpose as Borrower shall designate.

Section 2.2                                   Interest Rate.

2.2.1                     Applicable Interest Rate.  Each Component of the Loan shall accrue interest throughout the Term at the Applicable Interest Rate for such Component during each Interest Period.  The total interest accrued under the Loan shall be the sum of the interest accrued on the outstanding balance of each of the Components.  Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date the interest accrued or to be accrued on the Loan for the related Interest Period.

2.2.2                     Interest Calculation.  Interest on the Loan owing on the Closing Date shall be equal to the aggregate interest due on each Component of the Loan with respect to initial Interest Period.  With respect to the initial Interest Period, interest on each Component is equal to the product of (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the Interest Period for which the calculation is being made, (b) the Applicable Interest Rate for such Component divided by 360 and (c) the

41

initial Outstanding Principal Balance of such Component.  Thereafter, interest on the Loan and other Obligations shall be equal to the aggregate interest due on each Component of the Loan and any other Obligations outstanding with respect to such Payment Date.  With respect to each such Payment Date, interest on each Component and any other Obligations shall be calculated on the basis of twelve 30-day months so that the interest owing on each Payment Date shall be equal to the product of (i) one-twelfth (1/12th), (ii) the Applicable Interest Rate for such Component and, (iii) the average daily balance Outstanding Principal Balance of each such Component during the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of any other Obligations, the amount of such other Obligations).  The accrual period for calculating interest due on each Payment Date shall be the Interest Period immediately preceding such Payment Date.

2.2.3       Default Rate.  In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Components and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, all other portions of the Debt, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due or, if later, such Default shall have occurred, without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein.  Interest at the Default Rate shall be paid immediately upon demand, which demand may be made as frequently as Lender shall elect, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law.

2.2.4       Usury Savings.  This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate.  If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate (with such reduction applied to the Components in reverse order of priority) and all previous payments in excess of such reduced rate or rates shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder.  All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

Section 2.3            Loan Payment.

2.3.1       Monthly Debt Service Payments.

(a)           Borrower shall pay to Lender (i) on the Closing Date, an amount equal to interest only on the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Components from the Closing Date up to and including March 30, 2015, which interest shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2 and (ii) on the Payment Date occurring in May 9, 2015, and on each Payment Date thereafter up to and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall make a payment to Lender equal to the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount.  For avoidance of doubt, ARD Spread Interest accruing from and after the Anticipated Repayment Date shall not be due and

42

payable on a monthly basis and shall not be included in the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount, but rather shall accrue and be payable as provided in Section 2.3.1(b) and Section 2.3.3.  Borrower shall also pay to Lender on the Closing Date all amounts required in respect of Reserve Funds as set forth in Article 6 and an amount equal to the sum of the initial monthly certificate administrator fee and the initial monthly trustee fee.

(b)           On the Anticipated Repayment Date and on each Payment Date from and after the Anticipated Repayment Date until the earlier of the Maturity Date or the date which the entire Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loan and all Accrued Additional Interest, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents has been paid in full, Borrower shall pay to Lender, in addition to the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount as provided in Section 2.3.1(a) above, all Available Cash on each Payment Date, which Available Cash, together with all amounts held in the Cash Collateral Account, shall, so long as no Event of Default exists, be applied as set forth in Section 2.7.2(i)(B).  From and after the Anticipated Repayment Date, ARD Spread Interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Components, and all accrued and unpaid ARD Spread Interest shall earn interest at the Applicable Interest Rate, compounding monthly on each Payment Date after such ARD Spread Interest first accrues (the aggregate amount of all such ARD Spread Interest and all interest accruing thereon is herein referred to as the “Accrued Additional Interest”).  Borrower’s obligation to pay Accrued Additional Interest shall constitute additional Debt evidenced by this Agreement and the Note.

2.3.2       Payments Generally.  The first Interest Period hereunder shall commence on and include the Closing Date and shall end on and include March 30, 2015.  Thereafter during the term of the Loan, each Interest Period shall be the calendar month preceding the calendar month in which the related Payment Date occurs.  For purposes of making payments hereunder, but not for purposes of calculating Interest Periods, if the day on which such payment is due is not a Business Day, then amounts due on such date shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day and with respect to payments of principal due on the Maturity Date, interest shall be payable at the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, through and including the last day of the related Interest Period.  All amounts due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, defense or any other deduction whatsoever.

2.3.3       Payment on Maturity Date.  Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the Outstanding Principal Balance, all accrued and unpaid interest (including, without limitation, Accrued Additional Interest) and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Mortgage Documents and the other Loan Documents.

2.3.4       Late Payment Charge.  If any principal, interest or any other sums due under the Loan Documents (including the amounts due on the Maturity Date) are not paid by Borrower on or prior to the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of four percent (4%) of such unpaid sum or the Maximum Legal Rate in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment.  Any such amount shall be secured by the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.

43

2.3.5       Method and Place of Payment.  Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Note shall be made to Lender not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds at Lender’s office or as otherwise directed by Lender, and any funds received by Lender after such time shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 2.4            Prepayments.

(a)           Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior to the Transfer Date, a Request for Release, together with all attachments thereto and evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 2.5 will be satisfied upon the consummation of such Transfer (for the avoidance of doubt, no Request for Release need be provided in connection with a contribution of a Release Property to a Borrower TRS prior to the Transfer thereof to such third party);

(b)           No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (other than a non-monetary Event of Default that is specific to such Release Property to which Section 2.4.2(a) is applicable and would be cured as a result of the release of the Release Property, so long as a mandatory prepayment is made with respect thereto in accordance with Section 2.4.2(a) (a “Qualified Release Property Default”));

51

(k)                                 If any Transfer of Release Properties is to be consummated after the Anticipated Repayment Date and the aggregate Net Transfer Proceeds of the Release Properties in such Transfer will be less than the aggregate Allocated Loan Amounts of such Release Properties as of the Transfer date, then Borrower shall either (i) obtain Lender’s prior written consent to such Transfer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned or (ii) make a voluntary prepayment of the principal amount of the Loan in an amount equal to the excess of the aggregate Allocated Loan Amounts of such Release Properties as of the Transfer date over the aggregate Net Transfer Proceeds of the Release Properties.

(e)                                  Borrower shall not further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Rent Deposit Accounts or the monies deposited therein or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 financing statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.

(f)                                   Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Rent Deposit Accounts and/or the related Deposit Account Control Agreement (unless arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender) or the performance of the obligations for which the Rent Deposit Accounts were established.

(a)                                 Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Borrower) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Borrower, then the Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.8(a)) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)                                 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.

(c)                                  Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)                                 Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.8, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

(e)                                  Status of Lenders.  (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower, shall deliver such other

57

documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.8(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii)                                  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A)                               any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)                               any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)                                 in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (in the case of an individual) or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (in the case of an entity) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN (in the case of an individual) or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (in the case of an entity) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2)                                 executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)                                 in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

58

(4)                                 to the extent a Foreign Lender is a partnership or is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)                               any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)                               if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as may be necessary for the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f)                                   Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.8 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.8), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental

59

Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.8(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.8(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.8(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This Section 2.8(f) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g)                                  Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.8 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

ARTICLE III - REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 3.1                                   General Representations.  Borrower represents and warrants to Lender as of the Closing Date that, except to the extent (if any) disclosed on Schedule III with reference to a specific subsection of this Section 3.1:

3.1.1                     Organization.  Each Loan Party has been duly organized and is validly existing with requisite power and authority to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged.  Each Loan Party is duly qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its properties, businesses and operations, except to the extent that failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Loan Party possesses all rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged, except to the extent that failure to do so could not in the aggregate reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The sole business of Borrower is the acquisition, ownership, maintenance, sale, transfer, refinancing, management, leasing and operation of the Properties; and the sole business of Equity Owner is acting as the sole member of Borrower, including, providing the Equity Owner Guaranty and the Equity Owner Security Agreement.  Each Loan Party is a Special Purpose Entity.

3.1.2                     Proceedings.  Each Loan Party has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party party thereto in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).  The Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by any Loan Party including

60

the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents unenforceable, and no Loan Party has asserted any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense with respect thereto.

3.1.3                     No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by each Loan Party party thereto (i) will not contravene such Loan Party’s organizational documents, (ii) will not result in any violation of the provisions of any Legal Requirement of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over any Loan Party or any of each Loan Party’s properties or assets, (iii) with respect to each Loan Party, will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt, loan agreement, management agreement or other agreement or instrument to which such Loan Party is a party or to, which any of such Loan Party’s property or assets is subject, that would be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iv) with respect to each Loan Party, except for Liens created under the Loan Documents, result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any of the assets of such Loan Party.

3.1.4                     Litigation.  There are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other entity now pending or, to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of Manager or any Loan Party, threatened in writing, against or affecting any Loan Party or Manager, as applicable, which actions, suits or proceedings (i) involve the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  There are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other entity that resulted in a judgment against any Loan Party that has not been paid in full that would otherwise constitute an Event of Default.

3.1.5                     Agreements.  No Loan Party is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Loan Party is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party which default would be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Other than the Loan Documents, no Loan Party has a material financial obligation (contingent or otherwise) under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which any Loan Party is a party other than, with respect to Borrower, the Management Agreement.

3.1.6                     Consents.  No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or Governmental Authority is required for the execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of, or compliance by any Loan Party with, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, other than those which have been obtained by the applicable Loan Party.

3.1.7                     Solvency.  Each Loan Party has (a) not entered into the transaction contemplated by this Agreement nor executed any Loan Document with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor and (b) received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents.  After giving effect to the Loans, each Loan Party is Solvent.  No petition in bankruptcy has been filed against any Loan Party in the last seven (7) years, and no

61

Loan Party in the last seven (7) years has made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or taken advantage of any insolvency act for the benefit of debtors.  No Loan Party is contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of such Person’s assets or property, and to the actual knowledge of any Loan Party, no Person is contemplating the filing of any such petition against any Loan Party.

3.1.8                     Other Debt.  No Loan Party has any Indebtedness other than, with respect to Borrower, Permitted Indebtedness, and with respect to Equity Owner, Equity Owner Permitted Indebtedness.

3.1.9                     Employee Benefit Matters.

(a)                                 Assuming no portion of the assets used by Lender to fund the Loan constitutes the assets of an ERISA Plan, the assets of each Loan Party do not constitute “plan assets” of (i) any “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) any “plan” (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code) that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code or (iii) any employee benefit plan or plan that is not subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code but is subject to any law, rule or regulation applicable to such Loan Party which is substantially similar to the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (each of clauses (i), (ii) and (ii), an “ERISA Plan”) with the result that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the exercise by Lender of any rights under the Loan Documents will constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.  No Loan Party or any of its ERISA Affiliates sponsors, maintains or contributes to any Plans or Foreign Plans.  No Loan Party has any employees.

(b)                                 Each Plan (and each related trust, insurance contract or fund) is in compliance in all materials respects with its terms and with all applicable laws, including without limitation ERISA and the Code.  Each Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code as currently in effect has been determined by the IRS to be so qualified, and each trust related to any such Plan has been determined to be exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code as currently in effect, and no event has taken place which could reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualified status and exempt status.  With respect to each Plan of a Loan Party, each Loan Party and all of its ERISA Affiliates have satisfied the minimum funding standard under Section 412(a) of the Code and Section 302(a) of ERISA and paid all required minimum contributions and all required installments on or before the due dates under Section 430(j) of the Code and Section 303(j) of ERISA.  No Loan Party nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has filed, pursuant to Section 412(c) of the Code or Section 302(c) of ERISA, an application for a waiver of the minimum funding standard.  No Loan Party nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has incurred any liability to the PBGC which remains outstanding other than the payment of premiums, and there are no premium payments which have become due which are unpaid.  No Plan is in “at risk” status within the meaning of Section 430(i) of the Code or Section 303(j) of ERISA.  There are no existing, pending or threatened in writing claims (other than routine claims for benefits in the normal course), sanctions, actions, lawsuits or other proceedings or investigation involving any Plan to which any Loan Party or any of its ERISA Affiliates has incurred or otherwise has or could have an obligation or any liability.  With respect

62

to each Multiemployer Plan to which any Loan Party or any of its ERISA Affiliates is required to make a contribution, each Loan Party and all of its ERISA Affiliates have satisfied all required contributions and installments on or before the applicable due dates and have not incurred a complete or partial withdrawal under Section 4203 or 4205 of ERISA.  No Plan Termination Event has or is reasonably expected to occur.

(c)                                  Each Foreign Plan is in compliance in all material respects with all laws, regulations and rules applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such plan.  The aggregate of the liabilities to provide all of the accrued benefits under each Foreign Plan does not exceed the current fair market value of the assets held in the trust or other funding vehicle for such plan.  There are no actions, suits or claims (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or threatened against any Loan Party or any of its ERISA Affiliates with respect to any Foreign Plan.

3.1.10              Compliance with Legal Requirements.  Each Loan Party is in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, except to the extent that any noncompliance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Loan Party is in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, except for any default or violation that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.1.11              Financial Information.  All financial data that have been delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan (a) are true, complete and correct in all material respects (or, to the extent that any such financial data was incorrect in any material respect when delivered, the same has been corrected by financial data subsequently delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date), (b) accurately represent the financial condition of the Properties as of the date of such reports (or, to the extent that any such financial data did not accurately represent the financial condition of the Properties when delivered, the same has been corrected by financial data subsequently delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date), and (c) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP throughout the periods covered, except as disclosed therein.  The foregoing representation shall not apply to any such financial data that constitutes projections, provided that Borrower represents and warrants that such projections were made in good faith and that Borrower has no reason to believe that such projections were materially inaccurate.  Borrower does not have any contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments that are known to Borrower and reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as referred to or reflected in said financial statements.  Borrower has no liabilities or other obligations that arose or accrued prior to the Closing Date that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Borrower has no known contingent liabilities.

3.1.12              Insurance.  Borrower has obtained and delivered to Lender certificates evidencing the Policies required to be maintained under Section 5.1.1.  All such Policies are in full force and effect, with all premiums prepaid thereunder.  No claims have been made that are currently pending, outstanding or otherwise remain unsatisfied under any such Policies that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  With respect to any insurance policy, neither Borrower nor, to Borrower’s or Manager’s knowledge, any other Person, has

63

done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of any of the Policies in any material respect.

3.1.13              Tax Filings.  Each Loan Party has filed, or caused to be filed, on a timely basis all Tax returns (including, without limitation, all foreign, federal, state, local and other Tax returns) required to be filed by it, if any, is not liable for Non-Property Taxes payable by any other Person and has paid or made adequate provisions for the payment of all Non-Property Taxes (to the extent such Taxes, assessment and other governmental charges exceed $100,000 in the aggregate) payable by such Loan Party except as permitted by Section 4.1.4 or 4.4.5.  All material recording or other similar taxes required to be paid by any Loan Party under applicable Legal Requirements currently in effect in connection with the execution, delivery, recordation, filing, registration, perfection or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents have been paid.

3.1.15              Special Purpose Entity/Separateness.

(a)                                 Since its formation, no Loan Party has conducted any business other than entering into and performing its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party and as described in the definition of Special Purpose Entity herein.  As of the Closing Date, no Loan Party owns or holds, directly or indirectly (i) any capital stock or equity security of, or any equity interest in, any Person other than a Loan Party or (ii) any debt security or other evidence of indebtedness of any Person, except for Permitted Investments and as otherwise contemplated by the Loan Documents.  As of the Closing Date, Borrower does not have any subsidiaries.

(b)                                 Any and all of the stated facts and assumptions made in the Insolvency Opinion, including, but not limited to, any exhibits attached thereto, will have been and shall be true and correct in all respects, and each Loan Party will have complied and will comply in all material respects, with all of the stated facts and assumptions made with respect to it in the Insolvency Opinion.  Each entity other than a Loan Party with respect to which an assumption is made or a fact stated in any Insolvency Opinion will have complied and will comply, in all material respects, with all of the assumptions made and facts stated with respect to it in the Insolvency Opinion.  Borrower covenants that in connection with any Additional Insolvency Opinion delivered in connection with this Agreement it shall provide an updated certification regarding compliance with the facts and assumptions made therein, which certificate shall be substantially similar to the representations made in this Section 3.1.15(b).

3.1.17              Illegal Activity.  None of the Properties has been or will be purchased with proceeds of any illegal activity.
