Section 1.0 Loans.

     (a) Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, during the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Termination Date, each Lender holding a portion of the Unfunded Commitment severally and not jointly agrees to make Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, the amount of such Lender’s Unfunded Commitment; provided, that, (i) no Loan made to acquire a Collateral Pool Property shall exceed the Available Amount with respect to such Collateral Pool Property and (ii) no Loan made to acquire a Collateral Pool Property, together with the proceeds of any Senior Loan applied towards the acquisition of such Collateral Pool Property, shall exceed ninety percent (90%) of the total acquisition cost of such Collateral Pool Property (the limitations on borrowing set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this proviso herein referred to as the “Collateral Pool Lending Limits”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Termination Date, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Loans hereunder, and any repayment of a Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall pro rata increase the Unfunded Commitment of the Lenders holding such Unfunded Commitment by the principal amount of such prepayment.

     (b) Requesting Loans. The Borrower shall give the Agent notice pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or telephonic notice of each borrowing of Loans. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be delivered to the Agent (i) before 11:00 a.m. in the case of LIBOR Loans, on the date three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of such borrowing and (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the date one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of such borrowing.

     (a) Rates. The Borrower promises to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following per annum rates:

          (i) during such periods as a Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time) plus (x) for the first one hundred twenty (120) days following the making of such Loan, five percent (5.0%) per annum, and thereafter nine percent (9.0%) per annum; and

          (ii) during such periods as a Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor plus (x) for the first one hundred twenty (120) days following the making of such Loan, six percent (6.0%) per annum, and thereafter ten percent (10.0%) per annum.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including without limitation, accrued but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law).

     (b) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) in the case of a Base Rate Loan on the first day of each calendar month, (ii) in the case of a LIBOR Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period therefor, and (iii) in the case of any Loan, upon the payment, prepayment or Continuation thereof or the Conversion of such Loan to a Loan of another Type (but only on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, Continued or Converted). Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand. Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders to which such interest is payable and to the Borrower. All determinations by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error (that is an obvious mathematical error).

Section 5.0 Number of Interest Periods.

     There may be no more than ten (10) different Interest Periods for LIBOR Loans that are Loans outstanding at the same time.

Section 6.0 Repayment of Loans.

     The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Loans, together with all other amounts then outstanding under this Agreement, on the Termination Date.

     Section 7.0 Prepayments.

     (a) Optional. Subject to Section 4.4, the Borrower may prepay any Loan advanced in connection with the purchase of a Collateral Pool Property at any time on or prior to the date which is one hundred twenty (120) days from the date such Loan was originally made without premium or penalty. The Borrower shall give the Agent at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of the prepayment of any Loan and identify the advance which is being prepaid. Prepayments shall be accompanied by the payment of all accrued interest on the amount so prepaid. Except as provided in this Section 2.7(a) and except in connection with a prepayment as a result of a casualty or condemnation, no other prepayments of the Loans shall be permitted.

     (b) Mandatory. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans exceeds the amount of the Total Commitment in effect at such time, the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Lenders the amount of such excess. Such payment shall be applied by the Agent to pay any Loans Outstanding pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. If the Borrower is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 4.4.

     (c) Equity Proceeds. The Borrower, to the extent prepayment is permitted under Section 2.7(a), shall cause the net proceeds of any Equity Issuance (gross proceeds less reasonable and customary costs of sale and issuance paid to Persons not Affiliates of any Obligor) to be paid to Agent for the account of the applicable Lender within three (3) days of receipt of such proceeds as a prepayment of the Loans; provided that so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred, Borrower may retain an amount not to exceed $250,000.00 of such proceeds as working capital.

Section 8.0 Continuation.

     So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any Loan that is a LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period. Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower’s giving to the Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 11:00 a.m. on the third (3^rd) Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation. Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telephone or telecopy, confirmed immediately in writing if by telephone, in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loans and portions thereof subject to such Continuation and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder. Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by telecopy, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any such LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, or shall fail to give a timely Notice of Continuation with respect to a Base Rate Loan, or if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into (or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan, continue as) a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.9 or the Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section.

Section 9.0 Conversion.

     So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower’s giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Agent, Convert all or a portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type. Any Conversion of a Loan that is a LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for

such LIBOR Loan and, upon Conversion of a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, the Borrower shall pay accrued interest to the date of Conversion on the principal amount so Converted. Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into Base Rate Loans and on the third (3^rd) Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into LIBOR Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by telecopy, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Conversion. Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telephone (confirmed immediately in writing) or telecopy in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Loan, the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan. Each Notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.

     (a) Note. The Loans made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit L (each a “Note”), payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of the Loans made (or acquired) by it evidenced thereby.

     (b) Records. The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan made by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books and such entries shall be binding on the Borrower absent manifest error (that is an obvious mathematical error).

     (c) Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes. Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written notice from a Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, and (ii) (A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense execute and deliver to such Lender a new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.

     The Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the aggregate unused amount of the Commitments at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon not less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice to the Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the Agent. The Agent will promptly transmit such notice to each Lender. The Commitments may not be reduced below $7,500,000.00 in the aggregate unless the Borrower terminates the Commitments in their entirety, and, once terminated or reduced, the Commitments may not be increased or reinstated. Each reduction of the Commitment hereunder shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $100,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.

     Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any applicable Lender prior to the specified date of borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Agent the Loan to be made by such Lender on such date, the Agent may assume that such Lender will make the proceeds of such Loan available to the Agent on the date of the requested borrowing and the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Loan to be provided by such Lender and such Lender shall be liable to Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Rate.

     Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in

Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Agent at its Principal Office, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Subject to Sections 3.2 and 3.3., the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) debit the amount of any such payment which is not made by such time from any special or general deposit account of Borrower with the Agent. The Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any Note, specify to the Agent the amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied. Each payment received by the Agent for the account of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender no later than one (1) Business Day after receipt. If the Agent fails to pay such amount to a Lender as provided in the previous sentence, the Agent shall pay interest on such amount until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall be payable for the period of such extension. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

Section 2.0 Pro Rata Treatment.

     Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.1(a) shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the Fees under Section 3.6(a) shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.11 shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders holding Unfunded Commitments, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Unfunded Commitments; (ii) each payment of principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders holding Funded Commitments pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them, provided that any prepayment of a Loan made to acquire a Collateral Pool Property which is prepaid shall be paid solely to the Lender or Lenders making such advance, and provided further that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall not be held by the Lenders holding Funded Commitments pro rata in accordance with their respective Funded Commitments in effect at the time such Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Loans being held by the Lenders holding Funded Commitments pro rata in accordance with their respective Funded Commitments; (iii) each payment of interest on Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders holding Funded Commitments pro rata in accordance with the amount of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders; and (iv) the making, Conversion and Continuation of Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Section 4.6) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of making of Loans) or their respective Loans (in the case of Conversions and Continuations of Loans) and the then current Interest Period for each Lender’s portion of each Loan of such Type shall be coterminous.

Section 3.0 Sharing of Payments, Etc.

     If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan made by it to the Borrower under this Agreement, or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or an Obligor through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by the Borrower to a Lender not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to some or all of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2 or Section 10.3, as

applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other applicable Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by such other Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the applicable Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2 or Section 10.3. To such end, all the applicable Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.

Section 4.0 Several Obligations.

     No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.

Section 5.0 [Intentionally Omitted.]

Section 6.0 Fees.

     (a) Unused Fee. Borrower agrees to pay Agent for the account of each Lender holding an Unfunded Commitment an annual unused fee calculated at the rate per annum set forth below on the average daily amount by which the Total Commitment exceeds the sum of outstanding Loans during such calendar quarter for the period from and including the Agreement Date to but excluding the date the Total Commitment is terminated or reduced to zero or the Termination Date. The unused fee shall be calculated based on the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (a) the average daily amount of the sum of outstanding Loans during such calendar quarter to (b) the Total Commitment as follows:

Ratio of Outstanding principal
balance of Loans to Total
Commitment		Rate
Less than 50%			0.75	%
Greater than or equal to 50%			0.50	%

Such fee when paid shall be non-refundable and shall be paid in arrears on (i) the last Business Day of March, June, September and December, (ii) the date of each reduction of the Commitments (but only on the amount of the reduction) and (iii) the Termination Date.

     (b) Administrative and Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the reasonable administrative and other fees of the Agent as may be agreed to in writing from time to time.

Section 7.0 Computations.

     Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or any other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days (or a year of 365 days in the case of Base Rate Loans) and the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 8.0 Usury.

     In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in writing that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.

Section 9.0 Agreement Regarding Interest and Charges.

     The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.4(a)(i) and (ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, arrangement fees, amendment fees, up-front fees, commitment fees, facility fees, unused fee, exit fees, closing fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Agent or any Lender, or any other similar amounts are charges made to compensate the Agent or any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders have imposed no minimum borrowing requirements, reserve or escrow balances or compensating balances related in any way to the Obligations. Any use by Borrower of certificates of deposit issued by any Lender or other accounts maintained with any Lender has been and shall be voluntary on the part of Borrower. All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.

Section 10.0 Statements of Account.

     The Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such account rendered by the Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon Borrower absent manifest error. The failure of the Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 11.0 Defaulting Lenders.

     (a) Generally. If for any reason any Lender (a “Defaulting Lender”) shall fail or refuse to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party within the time period specified for performance of such obligation or, if no time period is specified, if such failure or refusal continues for a period of two (2) Business Days after notice from the Agent, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Agent or the Borrower under this Agreement or Applicable Law, such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in

respect of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of the Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of all of the Lenders or the Requisite Lenders, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal. If a Lender is a Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies which the Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or otherwise, the Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the Federal Funds Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. Any amounts received by the Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender’s Loans shall not be paid to such Defaulting Lender and shall be held uninvested by the Agent and either applied against the purchase price of such Loans under Section 3.11(b) or paid to such Defaulting Lender upon the Defaulting Lender’s curing of its default. Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 12.15), Borrower does not waive any claim that it may have against a Defaulting Lender.

     (b) Purchase or Cancellation of Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. Any Lender who is not a Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to acquire all of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. Any Lender desiring to exercise such right shall give written notice thereof to the Agent and the Borrower no sooner than two (2) Business Days and not later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such Defaulting Lender became a Defaulting Lender. If more than one Lender exercises such right, each such Lender shall have the right to acquire an amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment in proportion to the Commitments of the other Lenders exercising such right. If after such fifteenth (15^th) Business Day, the Lenders have not elected to purchase all of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, by giving written notice thereof to the Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, either (i) demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitment to a transferee permitted by Section 12.5 approved by Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.5(d) for the purchase price provided for below or (ii) terminate the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, whereupon such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (except as expressly provided in this Section 3.11(b)). No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding a transferee permitted by Section 12.5. Upon any such purchase or assignment, the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Loans and its rights hereunder (but not its liability in respect thereof or under the Loan Documents or this Agreement to the extent the same relate to the period prior to the effective date of the purchase) shall terminate on the date of purchase, and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest to the purchaser or assignee thereof, including an appropriate Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and, notwithstanding Section 12.5(d), shall pay to the Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500. The purchase price for the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender shall be equal to the amount of the principal balance of the Loans outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender. Prior to payment of such purchase price to a Defaulting Lender, the Agent shall apply against such purchase price any amounts retained by the Agent pursuant to the last sentence of Section 3.11(a). The Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive amounts owed to it by the Borrower under the Loan Documents which accrued prior to the date of the default by the Defaulting Lender, to the extent the same are received by the Agent from or on behalf of the Borrower. There shall be no recourse against any Lender or the Agent for the payment of such sums except to the extent of the receipt of payments from any other party or in respect of the Loans.

Section 12.0 Taxes.

     (a) Taxes Generally. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future excise, stamp or other taxes, fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding (i) franchise taxes, and (ii) any taxes imposed on or measured by any Lender’s assets, net income, receipts or branch profits (such non-excluded items being collectively called “Taxes”). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Borrower will:

          (i) pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

          (ii) promptly forward to the Agent an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Agent evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority; and

          (iii) pay to the Agent for its account or the account of the applicable Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Agent or such Lender will equal the full amount that the Agent or such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

     (b) Tax Indemnification. If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Agent, for its account or the account of the respective Lender, as the case may be, the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section, a distribution hereunder by the Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower.

     (c) Tax Forms. Prior to the date that any Lender or participant organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States of America becomes a party hereto, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (but only so long as such Lender or participant is or remains lawfully able to do so) such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Internal Revenue Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto (including Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI and W-8BEN, as applicable, or appropriate successor forms), properly completed, currently effective and duly executed by such Lender or participant indicating whether payments to it hereunder and under the Notes are (i) not subject to United States Federal backup withholding tax or (ii) not subject to United States Federal withholding tax under the Internal Revenue Code because such payment is either effectively connected with the conduct by such Lender or participant of a trade or business in the United States or totally exempt from United States Federal withholding tax by reason of the application of the provisions of a treaty to which the United States is a party or such Lender is otherwise wholly exempt; provided that nothing herein (including, without limitation, the failure or inability to provide any of such certificates, documents or other evidence) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligations under this Section 3.12. In addition, any such Lender or participant shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (but only so long as such Lender or participant is or remains lawfully able to do so) further copies of any such certificate, document or other evidence on or before the date that any such certificate, document or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete.

ARTICLE IV. YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.

Section 1.0 Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.

     (a) Additional Costs. The Borrower shall promptly pay to the Agent for the account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender that it reasonably determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any LIBOR Loans or its obligation to make any LIBOR Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital in respect of its Loans or its Commitment (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that: (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or its Commitment (other than taxes which are excluded from the definition of Taxes pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.12(a)); or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other reserve requirement to the extent utilized in the determination of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender, or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitments of such Lender hereunder); or (iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy).

     (b) Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans. Without limiting the effect of the provisions of Section 4.1(a), if, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert any other Type of Loans into, LIBOR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6 shall apply).

     (c) [Intentionally Omitted.]

     (d) Notification and Determination of Additional Costs. Each of the Agent and each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Agent or such Lender to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, the failure of the Agent or any Lender to give such notice shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder; provided further, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the Agent or a Lender, as the case may be, shall not be entitled to compensation for any such amount relating to any period ending more than six (6) months prior to the date that the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, first notifies the Borrower in writing thereof. The Agent and or such Lender agrees to furnish to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by the Agent or such Lender for compensation under this Section. Absent manifest error (that is an obvious mathematical error), determinations by the Agent or any Lender of the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

Section 2.0 Suspension of LIBOR Loans.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period:

     (a) the Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

     (b) the Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate as determined by the Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period;

then the Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans and the Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan, either repay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

Section 3.0 Illegality.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if it becomes unlawful for any Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6 shall be applicable).

Section 4.0 Compensation.

     The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender determines is attributable to:

     (a) any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

     (b) any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Article V to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or Continue a LIBOR Loan on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.

Upon the Borrower’s request, any Lender requesting compensation under this Section shall provide the Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. Each Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender and may include, without limitation, administrative costs as a component of such loss, cost or expense. Absent manifest error, determinations by any Lender in any such statement shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

Section 5.0 Affected Lenders.

     If (a) a Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.12 or 4.1, and the Requisite Lenders are not also doing the same, or (b) the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1(b) or 4.3. but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have been suspended under such Sections, then, so long as there does not then exist any Default or Event of Default, the Borrower, within thirty (30) days of such request for compensation or suspension, as applicable, may either (i) demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall promptly, assign its Commitments to a transferee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.5(d) for a purchase price equal to the aggregate principal balance of Loans then owing to the Affected Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, or (ii) pay to the Affected Lender the aggregate principal balance of Loans then owing to the Affected Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, whereupon the Affected Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Each of the Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating the replacement of such Affected Lender under this Section, but at no time shall the Agent, such Affected Lender nor any other Lender be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding a transferee permitted by Section 12.5. The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Agent, the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders. The terms of this Section shall not in any way limit the Borrower’s obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender pursuant to Section 3.12, 4.1 or 4.4.

Section 6.0 Treatment of Affected Loans.

     If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1(b), 4.2 or 4.3, then such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 4.1(b) or 4.3, on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1 or 4.3 that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

     (a) to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

     (b) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1 or 4.3 that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender’s Loans that are Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

Section 7.0 Change of Lending Office.

     Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.12, 4.1 or 4.3 to reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America.

Section 8.0 Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans.

     Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article IV shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded LIBOR Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article IV.

Each Credit Event shall constitute a certification by the Borrower to the effect set forth in the preceding sentence (both as of the date of the giving of notice relating to such Credit Event and, unless the Borrower otherwise notifies the Agent prior to the date of such Credit Event, as of the date of the occurrence of such Credit Event). In addition, if such Credit Event is the making of a Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented to the Agent and the Lenders at the time such Loan is made that all applicable conditions to the making of such Loan contained in Article V have been satisfied.

The provisions of this Section 5.2(c) shall not limit the Borrower’s obligations under other provisions of the Loan Documents, including without limitation Sections 12.2 and 12.9 hereof.

The transaction evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is in the best interests of the Borrower and the other Obligors and the creditors of such Persons. The direct and indirect benefits to inure to the Borrower and the other Obligors pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute substantially more than “reasonably equivalent value” (as such term is used in §548 of the Bankruptcy Code) and “valuable consideration,” “fair value,” and “fair consideration” (as such terms are used in any applicable state fraudulent conveyance law), in exchange for the benefits to be provided by the Borrower and the other Obligors pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and but for the willingness of each Guarantor to guaranty the Obligations, the Borrower would be unable to obtain the financing contemplated hereunder which financing will enable the Borrower and the other Obligors to have available financing to conduct and expand their business. The Borrower and the other Obligors constitute a single integrated financial enterprise and each receives a benefit from the availability of credit under this Agreement to the Borrower.

     (ee) Property. All of the Collateral Pool Properties, and all major building systems located thereon, are structurally sound, in good condition and working order and free from material defects, subject to ordinary wear and tear. The Collateral Pool Properties, and the use and operation thereof, are in material compliance with all applicable federal and state law and governmental regulations and any local ordinances, orders or regulations, including without limitation, laws, regulations and ordinances relating to zoning, building codes, subdivision, fire protection, health, safety, handicapped access, historic

preservation and protection, wetlands, tidelands, and Environmental Laws. Except as disclosed to Agent in writing prior to the acceptance of a Collateral Pool Property as Collateral, the zoning laws permit use of the improvements on the Collateral Pool Properties for their current use without reliance on any “grandfathering” or non-conforming use provisions of applicable zoning laws. There is such number of parking spaces on the lot or lots on which the Collateral Pool Property is located as is adequate under the zoning laws and regulations to permit use of the Collateral Pool Property for its current use. There are no outstanding notices, suits, orders, decrees or judgments relating to zoning, building use and occupancy, fire, health, sanitation or other violations affecting, against, or with respect to, the Collateral Pool Property or any part thereof. All water, sewer, electric, gas, telephone and other utilities necessary for the use and operation of each Collateral Pool Property are installed to the property lines of such Collateral Pool Property through dedicated public rights of way or through perpetual private easements approved by the Agent with respect to which the applicable Mortgage creates a valid and enforceable second lien (subject only to the lien created pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents) and are connected to the buildings located thereon with valid permits and are adequate to service such buildings in compliance with applicable law. The streets abutting the Collateral Pool Properties are dedicated and accepted public roads, to which the Collateral Pool Properties have direct access, or are perpetual private ways (with direct access to public roads) to which the Collateral Pool Properties have direct access approved by the Agent and with respect to which the applicable Mortgage creates a valid and enforceable second lien (subject only to the lien created pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents). All private ways providing access to the Collateral Pool Properties are zoned in a manner which will permit access to the Collateral Pool Properties over such ways by trucks and other commercial and industrial vehicles. There are no unpaid or outstanding real estate or other taxes or assessments on or against any of the Collateral Pool Properties which are payable by the Borrower or any Guarantor (except only real estate or other taxes or assessments, that are not yet delinquent or are being protested as permitted by this Agreement). Each Collateral Pool Property is separately assessed for purposes of real estate tax assessment and payment. No abatement proceedings are pending with reference to any real estate taxes assessed against the Collateral Pool Properties, other than with respect to taxes which have been paid under protest and which are being contested in good faith in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. There are no pending, or to the knowledge of Borrower threatened or contemplated, Takings against any of the Collateral Pool Properties. None of the Collateral Pool Properties is now damaged as a result of any fire, explosion, accident, flood or other casualty. Neither the Borrower nor any of the Guarantors has received any outstanding notice from any insurer or its agent requiring performance of any work with respect to any of the Collateral Pool Properties or canceling or threatening to cancel any policy of insurance, and each of the Collateral Pool Properties complies with the material requirements of all of the Borrower’s and the Guarantors’ insurance carriers. Except as listed on Schedule 6.1(ee), or with respect to the Collateral Pool Properties added after the Agreement Date as disclosed to Agent in writing, the Borrower has no Management Agreements for any of the Collateral Pool Properties. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.1(ee), there are no material agreements pertaining to any Collateral Pool Property or the operation or maintenance of either thereof other than as described in this Agreement (including the Schedules hereto) or the Title Policies; and no person or entity has any right or option to acquire any Collateral Pool Property or any portion thereof or interest therein. The buildings and all paved or landscaped areas related to or used in connection with each Collateral Pool Property are located wholly within the perimeter lines of the lot or lots on which the Collateral Pool Property is located, except as may be specifically shown on the Survey for such Collateral Pool Property. Each Collateral Pool Property constitutes a separate parcel which has been properly subdivided in accordance with all applicable state and local laws, regulations and ordinances to the extent required thereby, and neither the execution and delivery of the Mortgage nor the exercise of any remedies thereunder by the Agent shall violate any such law or regulation relating to the subdivision of real property. There are no approvals, consents, licenses, certificates of occupancy, permits, utility installations and connections, curb cuts and street openings, required by applicable laws, rules, ordinances or regulations or any agreement affecting the Collateral Pool Properties for the maintenance, operation, servicing and use of the Collateral Pool Properties for their current use which have not been granted, effected, or performed and completed (as the case may be),

or any fees or charges therefor which have not been fully paid, or which are no longer in full force and effect. No such approvals, consents, permits or licenses (including, without limitation, any railway siding agreements) will terminate, or become void or voidable or terminable on any foreclosure sale of a Collateral Pool Property pursuant to the Mortgages.

     (ff) No Event of Default. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

     (gg) Subordination. None of the Borrower or any other Obligor is a party to or bound by any agreement, instrument or indenture that may require the subordination in right or time of payment of any of the Obligations to any other indebtedness or obligation of any of such Persons.

     (ii) Setoff, Etc. The Collateral and the rights of the Agent and the Lenders with respect to the Collateral are not subject to any setoff, claims, withholdings or other defenses by the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any other Person other than as permitted in the Security Documents.

     (jj) Trade Name; Place of Business. Neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor uses any trade name and conducts business under any name other than its actual name set forth in the Loan Documents.

     (kk) Leases. An accurate and complete rent roll as of the date of inclusion of each Collateral Pool Property in the Collateral with respect to all Leases of any Collateral Pool Property has been provided to the Agent. The Leases reflected on such rent roll constitute as of the date thereof the sole agreements relating to leasing or licensing of space at such Collateral Pool Property. No tenant under any Lease is entitled to any free rent, partial rent, rebate of rent payments, credit, offset or deduction in rent, including, without limitation, lease support payments or lease buy-outs, except as reflected in such rent roll. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.1(kk), the Leases reflected therein are, as of the date of inclusion of the applicable Collateral Pool Property in the Collateral, in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms, without any payment default or any other material default thereunder, nor are there any defenses, counterclaims, offsets, concessions or rebates available to any tenant thereunder, and except as reflected in Schedule 6.1(kk), neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor has given or made, any notice of any payment or other material default, or any claim, which remains uncured or unsatisfied, with respect to any of the Leases, and to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Borrower, there is no basis for any such claim or notice of default by any tenant. No property other than the Collateral Pool Property which is the subject of the applicable Lease is necessary to comply with the requirements (including, without limitation, parking requirements) contained in such Lease.

     (ll) Mortgage Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby restates and reaffirms each of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the Guarantors set forth in the Senior Loan Documents as if the same were more fully set forth herein and were made to the Agent and the Lenders herein.

Any excess Insurance Proceeds shall be paid to the Borrower, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such proceeds shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations, unless in either case by the

terms of the applicable insurance policy the excess proceeds are required to be returned to such insurer. Any excess Condemnation Proceeds shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations. In no event shall the provisions of this section be construed to extend the Termination Date or to limit in any way any right or remedy of the Agent upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. If a Collateral Pool Property is sold or a Collateral Pool Property is acquired by the Agent, all right, title and interest of the Borrower and any Guarantor in and to any insurance policies and unearned premiums thereon and in and to the proceeds thereof resulting from loss or damage to such Collateral Pool Property prior to the sale or acquisition shall pass to the Agent or any other successor in interest to the Borrower or purchaser of such Collateral Pool Property.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any disposition of assets by the Obligors and their Subsidiaries shall be made in the ordinary course of business for a full and fair consideration.

forth herein. In such event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 6.0 Rights Cumulative.

     The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law. In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Agent and the Lenders may be selective and no failure or delay by the Agent or any of the Lenders in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

Section 7.0 Default under Senior Loan Documents.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (including without limitation Section 10.1(e) and Section 10.1(o)), the Borrower hereby expressly agrees that any “Event of Default” (as defined in the Senior Loan Documents) (which shall be deemed to include maturity of the debt evidenced and secured by the Senior Loan Document or any other occurrence which would give the Senior Lenders the right to exercise remedies under the Senior Loan Documents) shall constitute and be deemed to be an Event of Default under this Agreement for which no right to cure shall be available. Without limiting the foregoing, an “Event of Default” under the Senior Loan Documents shall conclusively be deemed to have occurred upon the declaration, statement or notice from the Senior Lender’s as to the existence or occurrence of an “Event of Default” under any of the Senior Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby transfers and assigns any excess proceeds arising from any foreclosure or sale under power pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents, and the Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the holder or holders of the Senior Loan Documents to pay such excess proceeds directly to the Agent up to the amount of the Obligations.

     (b) Upon the occurrence of any “Default” (as defined in the Senior Loan Documents), the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent within five (5) days after the first to occur of (x) receipt by the Borrower of notice of such “Default” from the Senior Lenders or (y) the date the Borrower obtains actual knowledge of the occurrence of such “Default”, a detailed description of the actions to be taken by the Borrower to cure such “Default” and the dates by which each such action shall occur. Such schedule shall be subject to the approval of the Agent. The Borrower shall take all such actions as are necessary to cure such “Default” under the Senior Loan Documents by the date approved by the Agent, and shall deliver to the Agent not less frequently than weekly thereafter written updates concerning the status of the Borrower’s efforts to cure such “Default”. The Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay any sums or to take any action which the Agent deems necessary or advisable to cure any default or alleged default under the Senior Loan Documents (whether or not the Borrower is undertaking efforts to cure such default or the same is an “Event of Default” under the Senior Loan Documents or a Default or Event of Default hereunder), and such payment or such action is hereby authorized by the Borrower, and any sum so paid and any expense incurred by the Agent in taking any such action shall be evidenced by this Agreement and secured by the Security Documents and shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower to the Agent with interest at the Post-Default Rate until paid. The Agent shall be authorized to take such actions upon the assertion by the holder of the Senior Loan Documents of the existence of such “Default” or “Event of Default” without any duty to inquire or determine whether such “Default” or “Event of Default” exist. The consent or waiver by the holder of the Senior Loan Documents of any “Event of Default” under the Senior Loan Documents shall not annul the occurrence of an Event of

Default hereunder unless otherwise approved by the Required Lenders. The Borrower shall permit the Agent to enter upon the Collateral Pool Properties for the purpose of curing any default or alleged default under the Senior Loan Documents or hereunder.

Section 8.0 Replacement of Manager.

     Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Agent may direct the Borrower in writing to replace the existing property managers for the Collateral Pool Properties, or such portions thereof as the Agent may direct with a property manager or managers approved by the Agent, subject to any conditions in the applicable Senior Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement to the qualifications and approval of such manager(s) and the form and terms of any new property management agreement. The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Agent its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and to do and perform any acts which are referred to in this Section 10.8, in the name and on behalf of the Borrower. The power vested in such attorney-in-fact is, and shall be deemed to be, coupled with an interest and irrevocable.

     Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof and thereof (including entering into and performing under the Intercreditor Agreement), together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Nothing herein (including the use of the term “Agent”) shall be construed to deem the Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender nor to impose on the Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. At the request of a Lender, the Agent will forward to such Lender copies or, where appropriate, originals of the documents delivered to the Agent pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The Agent will also furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy of any certificate or notice furnished to the Agent by the Borrower, any Obligor or any other Affiliate of the Borrower or any Obligor, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Agent shall not exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have so directed the Agent to exercise such right or remedy. The Borrower may rely on written amendments or waivers executed by Agent or acts taken by Agent as being authorized by the Lenders or the Requisite

Lenders, as applicable, to the extent Agent does not advise Borrower that it has not obtained such authorization from the Lenders or the Requisite Lenders, as applicable.

Section 2.0 Agent’s Reliance, Etc.

     Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrower or any other Obligor), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall not be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statements, warranties or representations made by any Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Agent on behalf of the Lenders in any such collateral; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone or telecopy) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties.

Section 3.0 Notice of Defaults.

     The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as the Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to the Agent such a “notice of default.” Further, if the Agent receives such a “notice of default”, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

Section 4.0 Wachovia Bank as Lender.

     Wachovia Bank, as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wachovia Bank in each case in its individual capacity. Wachovia Bank and its affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower, any other Obligor or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders. Further, the Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders.

Section 5.0 Approvals of Lenders.

     All communications from the Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except with respect to items requiring the unanimous consent or approval of the Lenders under Section 12.6, unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of the Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the applicable time period for reply, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.

Section 6.0 Lender Credit Decision, Etc.

     Each Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties as to the financial condition, operations, creditworthiness, solvency or other information concerning the business or affairs of the Borrower, any other Obligor, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Person or any Collateral to such Lender and that no act by the Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Obligors, and their respective Subsidiaries, or any other Affiliate thereof, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the Obligors, their respective Subsidiaries and other Persons and the Collateral, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Obligor, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges that the Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Agent and is not acting as counsel to such Lender.

Section 7.0 Indemnification of Agent.

     Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Commitment Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent (in its capacity as Agent but not as a Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or if the Agent fails to follow the written direction of the Requisite Lenders, unless such failure is pursuant to the reasonable advice of counsel of which the Lenders have received notice. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing but subject to the preceding provision, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees of the counsel(s) of the Agent’s own choosing) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration or enforcement of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws. Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Agent that the Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall reimburse the Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

Section 8.0 Successor Agent.

     The Agent may resign at any time as Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a commercial bank having total combined assets of at least $5,000,000,000, which appointment shall, provided no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and its affiliates as a successor Agent). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the resigning Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the resigning Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a commercial bank having total combined assets of at least $5,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents as Agent. After any Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article XI shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under the Loan Documents. Upon any change in the Agent under this Agreement, the resigning Agent

shall execute such assignments of and amendments to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to substitute the successor Agent for the resigning Agent.

Section 9.0 Lead Arranger.

     The Lead Arranger, in such capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders. The title of “Lead Arranger” is solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Lead Arranger to the Agent, the Borrower or any Lender and the use of such titles does not impose on the Lead Arranger any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Lead Arranger to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

Section 10.0 Other Loans by Lenders to Obligors.

     The Lenders agree that one or more of them may now or hereafter have other loans to one or more of the Obligors which are not subject to this Agreement. The Lenders agree that the Lender(s) which may have such other loan(s) to the Obligors may collect payments on such loan(s) and may secure such loan(s) (so long as such loan does not itself expressly violate this Agreement). Further, the Lenders agree that the Lender(s) which may have such other loan(s) to the Obligors shall have no obligation to attempt to collect payments under the Loans in preference and priority over the collection and/or enforcement of such other loan(s).

Section 11.0 Request for Agent Action.

     Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower, (a) a Collateral Pool Property may be subject to a Taking, (b) Borrower or a Guarantor may desire to enter into easements or other agreements affecting the Collateral Pool Properties, or (c) take other actions or enter into other agreements in the ordinary course of business which similarly require the consent, approval or agreement of the Agent. In connection with the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Agent to (x) execute releases of liens in connection with any Taking, (y) execute consents or subordinations in form and substance satisfactory to Agent in connection with any easements or agreements affecting the Collateral Pool Property, or (z) execute consents, approvals, or other agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent in connection with such other actions or agreements as may be necessary in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business.

Section 12.0 Intercreditor Agreement.

     (a) Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge that Agent has entered into the Intercreditor Agreement. Borrower acknowledges that the existence of the Intercreditor Agreement and the performance by Agent and the Lenders of their obligations under the Intercreditor Agreement shall not affect, impair or release the obligations of Borrower or Guarantors under the Loan Documents. The Intercreditor Agreement is solely for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders and not for the benefit of Borrower or Guarantors, and Borrower and Guarantors shall have no rights thereunder or any right to insist on the performance thereof. Agent is authorized by Lenders to perform its obligations under the Intercreditor Agreement, and each Lender agrees to be bound thereby. Any Lender may be a Senior Lender, and the fact that any Lender is also a Senior Lender shall not expand or diminish the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder.

     (b) Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the receipt by Agent of any notice under the Intercreditor Agreement. Without limiting the terms of this Agreement, the approval of the Requisite Lenders shall be required to exercise the option to purchase the Senior Loan as set forth in Section 13 of

the Intercreditor Agreement (the “Purchase Option”), and in the event that the Purchase Option is exercised, the Senior Loan shall be acquired by the Lenders holding a Funded Commitment in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (unless otherwise agreed by the Agent and such Lenders), Agent shall be the agent under the Senior Loan Documents, and this Agreement shall apply to the Senior Loan Documents and the relationship of the Agent and the Lenders with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Loan Documents to the contrary, in the event that the Requisite Lenders elect to exercise the Purchase Option, a Lender which votes against the exercise of the Purchase Option may decline to fund its pro rata share (based upon its Commitment Percentage) of the amount necessary to acquire the Senior Loan Documents; provided that in such event, all amounts otherwise payable to such Lender under this Agreement or the Loan Documents shall be paid first to those Lenders that have funded amounts to acquire the Senior Loan pursuant to the Purchase Option until all amounts due and payable to such Lenders (including contract interest, default interest and late charges and any of the foregoing accruing subsequent to the filing of any bankruptcy petition by or against Borrower as any other Person under the Bankruptcy Code) have been paid in full. Additionally, to the extent that Agent and/or any Lender has funded any payments to cure a default under the Senior Loan Documents as contemplated by the Intercreditor Agreement, Agent and/or such Lenders that funded such amounts shall be reimbursed on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages an amount equal to the such expenses actually incurred by Agent and/or such Lenders, together with interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate until Agent and/or such Lenders are reimbursed in full prior to the payment of all amounts otherwise payable to the Lenders under this Agreement or the Loan Documents.

discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Agent, such Lender or any affiliate of the Agent or such Lender, to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations, irrespective of whether or not any or all of the Loans and all other Obligations have been declared to be, or have otherwise become, due and payable as permitted by Section 10.2, and although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Promptly following any such set-off the Agent shall notify the Borrower thereof and of the application of such set-off, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not invalidate such set-off.

Section 4.0 Litigation; Jurisdiction; Other Matters; Waivers.

     (a) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES. ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE AGENT AND THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE.

     (b) THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY AGREES THAT THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA, ATLANTA DIVISION OR, AT THE OPTION OF THE AGENT, ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN ATLANTA, GEORGIA, SHALL HAVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOANS, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING HEREFROM OR THEREFROM. THE BORROWER AND EACH OF THE LENDERS EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS. EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME. THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.

     (c) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY AFTER CONSULTATION WITH COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 5.0 Successors and Assigns.

     (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that Borrower may not assign

or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such assignment or other transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented shall be null and void.

     (b) Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an affiliate of such Lender except to the extent such transfer would result in increased costs to the Borrower.

     (c) Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment or the Obligations owing to such Lender; provided, however, (i) such participation interest shall be granted to a Qualified Transferee approved by Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or another Person approved by Agent in its sole discretion and (ii) any such participating interest must be for a constant and not a varying percentage interest. No Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, however, such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) except as otherwise permitted in this Agreement, increase, or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination of, such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (v) release any Guarantor (except as otherwise permitted under Section 7.12). An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by Section 12.5(d) or (e) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (c). The selling Lender shall notify the Agent and the Borrower of the sale of any participation hereunder and, if requested by the Agent, certify to the Agent that such participation is permitted hereunder.

     (d) Any Lender may with the prior written consent of the Agent, assign to one or more Qualified Transferees approved by Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or another Person approved by Agent in its sole discretion (each an “Assignee”) its Commitment and any Note(s) and the Loan(s) evidenced thereby; provided, however, (i) no Lender shall assign any of its Unfunded Commitment without the prior written consent (so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (ii) each such assignment shall be effected by means of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be deemed to be a Lender party to this Agreement as of the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (d), the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to the Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500.

     (e) The Agent shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The Agent shall give each Lender and the Borrower notice of the assignment by any Lender of its rights as contemplated by this Section. The Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register and copies of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to the Agent. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed by an assigning Lender, together with each Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement has been completed and if the Agent receives the processing and recording fee described in Section 12.5(d) above, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.

     (f) In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, and such Loans and Notes shall be fully transferable as provided therein. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

     (g) A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates in the possession of such Lender from time to time to Assignees and Participants (including prospective Assignees and Participants) subject to compliance with Section 12.8.

     (h) Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

     (i) Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

Section 6.0 Amendments.

     Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document may be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document or the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Requisite Lenders (and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of the Borrower). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing, and signed by all of the Lenders (or the Agent at the written direction of the Lenders), do any of the following: (i) increase the Commitments (or any component thereof) of the Lenders or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations; (ii) reduce the principal of, or interest rates that have accrued or that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or Fees or other Obligations; (iii) reduce the amount of any Fees payable hereunder; (iv) except as provided in Section 2.16, postpone any date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loans or any other Obligations; (v) change the Commitment Percentages (or any component thereof) (except as a result of any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments contemplated by Section 3.11(b) or

4.5) or amend or otherwise modify the provisions of Section 3.2; (vi) modify the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders”, modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders (including all of the Lenders) required to make any determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof, including without limitation, any modification of this Section if such modification would have such effect; (vii) except as otherwise permitted in Section 2.19, release any material Collateral; or (viii) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty (except as otherwise permitted under Section 7.12). Further, no amendment, waiver or consent unless in writing and signed by the Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Any amendment of the Intercreditor Agreement or waiver of the terms thereof shall require the written consent of the Requisite Lenders. The Borrower will, and will cause the Guarantors to, enter into such modifications or amendments of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by Wachovia Bank in connection with the acquisition by each Lender acquiring all or a portion of the Commitment, provided that no such amendment or modification materially affects or increases any of the obligations of the Borrower or the Guarantors hereunder or thereunder. No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose set forth therein. No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Section 7.0 Nonliability of Agent and Lenders.

     The relationship between the Borrower and the Lenders and the Agent shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing by the Agent or any Lender to any Lender, the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Neither the Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations.

Section 8.0 Confidentiality.

     Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, the Agent and each Lender shall utilize all non-public information obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement which has been identified as confidential or proprietary by the Borrower in accordance with its customary procedure for handling confidential information of this nature to prevent improper disclosure (including disclosure to competitors of Borrower) and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices but in any event may make disclosure: (a) to any of their respective affiliates (provided they shall be notified of the obligation to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section); (b) as reasonably requested by any bona fide Assignee, Participant or other transferee in connection with the contemplated transfer of any Commitment or participations therein as permitted hereunder (provided they shall be notified of the obligation to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section); (c) as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or in connection with any legal proceedings; (d) to the Agent’s or such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the information); (e) after the happening and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to any other Person, in connection with the exercise by the Agent or the Lenders of rights hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents; and (f) to the extent such information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Agent or any Lender on a

nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates.

Section 9.0 Indemnification.

     (a) Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Agent, any affiliate of the Agent and each of the Lenders and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, agents, affiliates, employees and counsel (each referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection therewith, but excluding losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses indemnification in respect of which is specifically covered by Section 3.12 or 4.1 or expressly excluded from the coverage of such Sections) incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with, arising out of, or by reason of, any suit, cause of action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other proceeding (the foregoing referred to herein as an “Indemnity Proceeding”) which is in any way related directly or indirectly to: (i) this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the making of any Loans hereunder; (iii) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans; (iv) the Agent’s or any Lender’s entering into this Agreement; (v) the fact that the Agent and the Lenders have established the credit facility evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower; (vi) the fact that the Agent and the Lenders are creditors of the Borrower and have or are alleged to have information regarding the financial condition, strategic plans or business operations of the Borrower, the other Obligors, or their respective Subsidiaries; (vii) the fact that the Agent and the Lenders are material creditors of the Borrower and are alleged to influence directly or indirectly the business decisions or affairs of the Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise of any right or remedy the Agent or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (ix) any condition of a Collateral Pool Property; (x) the IPO, including, without limitation, shareholder, investor or other lawsuits threatened or filed, or investigations undertaken, as a result of the consummation of the IPO, or (xi) any violation or non-compliance by the Borrower, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any Applicable Law (including any Environmental Law) including, but not limited to, any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by (A) the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority or (B) any Governmental Authority or other Person under any Environmental Law, including any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by a Governmental Authority or other Person seeking remedial or other action to cause the Borrower, the Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries (or their respective properties) (or the Agent and/or the Lenders as successors to the Borrower, any other Obligor or their respective Subsidiaries) to be in compliance with such Environmental Laws; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party that constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct, or for liabilities of an Indemnified Party arising as a result of a breach of such Person’s obligations under the Loan Documents as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods.

     (b) The Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section shall apply to all Indemnity Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing whether or not an Indemnified Party is a named party in such Indemnity Proceeding. In this connection, this indemnification shall cover all reasonable costs and expenses of any Indemnified Party in connection with any deposition of any Indemnified Party or compliance with any subpoena (including any subpoena requesting the production of documents). This indemnification shall, among other things, apply to any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by other creditors of the Borrower, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, any shareholder, partner or other equity holder of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries (whether such shareholder(s) or such other Persons are prosecuting such Indemnity Proceeding in their individual capacity or derivatively on behalf of such Person), any account

debtor of the Borrower, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or by any Governmental Authority.

     (c) This indemnification shall apply to any Indemnity Proceeding arising during the pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against Borrower and/or an Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

     (d) All out-of-pocket fees and expenses of, and all amounts paid to third-persons by, an Indemnified Party with respect to an Indemnified Proceeding shall be advanced by the Borrower at the request of such Indemnified Party notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party that such Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not so entitled to indemnification hereunder.

     (e) An Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and defense of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnified Proceeding covered by this Section and, as provided above, all costs and expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed by the Borrower. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in investigating or defending against any such Indemnified Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the obligations and duties of the Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each such Indemnified Party.

     (f) If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower hereunder are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under Applicable Law.

     (g) The Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any other of their obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party.

Section 10.0 Termination; Survival.

     At such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated, (b) none of the Lenders is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans and (c) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in the following sentence) have been paid and satisfied in full, this Agreement shall terminate. The indemnities to which the Agent and the Lenders are entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.12, 4.1, 4.4, 11.7, 12.2 and 12.9 and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of Section 12.4, shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Agent and the Lenders (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement.

Section 11.0 Severability of Provisions.

     Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.0 GOVERNING LAW.

     THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

Section 13.0 Counterparts.

     This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 14.0 Obligations with Respect to Obligors and Subsidiaries.

     The obligations of the Borrower to direct or prohibit the taking of certain actions by the other Obligors and the Subsidiaries of the Borrower and the other Obligors as specified herein shall be absolute and not subject to any defense the Borrower may have that the Borrower does not control such Obligors or Subsidiaries.

Section 15.0 Limitation of Liability.

     Neither the Agent nor any Lender, nor any affiliate, officer, director, employee, attorney, or agent of the Agent or any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to ▇▇▇ any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to ▇▇▇ the Agent or any Lender or any of the Agent’s or any Lender’s affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or financed hereby.

Section 16.0 Entire Agreement.

     This Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents referred to herein embody the final, entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no oral agreements among the parties hereto.

Section 17.0 Construction.

     The Agent, the Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Agent, the Borrower and each Lender.

     Time is of the essence with respect to each and every covenant, agreement and obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
