excess of $5,000), its address and an estimate of the dollar
value of the work, labor and materials to be done or
supplied and a general statement of the nature of the work
to be done or materials to be supplied by each Contractor.

shall execute contracts not reflected on the above list, the
Lessee shall furnish to the Lessor any amendments or
additions to the original statement as so submitted.
8. APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT - Lessor shall have received an
Application for Payment pursuant to Article VIII hereof.

ARTICLE VIII
METHODS OF DISBURSEMENTS OF DEVELOPMENT FINANCING
PROCEEDS
The Development Financing shall be disbursed (a
"Disbursement") as follows:
1. PROCEDURE - Not more often than monthly, Lessee may
submit an Application for
Payment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "C"
requesting the Disbursement of proceeds under the
Development Financing, which request shall be submitted to
Lessor and to LTIC-CDD at least five (5) business days prior
to the date on which a Disbursement is requested. Provided
the conditions of this Development Financing Agreement are
met on the date requested for such advance, Lessor shall
advance to LTIC-CDD amounts certified to be currently
payable by Lessee (excluding the retainage hereinafter
specified) for the then incurred portion of Total
Construction Costs pursuant to the Application for Payment.
All costs shall have been approved in writing by the Project
Architect, Lessee, Contractor, and if required by Lessor, by
the Inspecting Architect. All interest accruing need not be
disbursed to LTIC-CDD, but may be immediately and
automatically credited by Lessor to the Development
Financing account. LTIC-CDD shall disburse all funds
advanced to it by Lessor in accordance with the terms and
provisions of this Agreement and any special escrow
requirements imposed by LTIC-CDD as a condition to its
acting as the disbursing agent hereunder. The disbursed
proceeds of the Development Financing shall bear interest
from and including the date of disbursement to LTIC-CDD or
the date of credit by Lessor provided that in the event LTIC-
CDD shall fail to disburse any advances within five (5)
business days after the date set for an advance, LTIC-CDD
shall return said advance to Lessor and interest on such
advance shall ▇▇▇▇▇ from and after the date of such return.
Any amounts disbursed to LTIC-CDD and returned by LTIC-CDD
to the Lessor shall not be deemed to be advanced under the
Development Financing Documents. Each Application for
Payment shall clearly set forth the amounts due to Lessee
and to each Contractor out of the requested
Development Financing and shall be accompanied by the
following:
a. A Draw Request Certificate in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit "D" certifying that each
contractor or materialman for which payment is requested in
the relevant Application for Payment has satisfactorily
completed the work or furnished the materials for which
payment is requested in accordance with the applicable
contract; that all work for which an Application for Payment
is made substantially conforms to the Contract Documents and
any approved changes, and is in place; and that sufficient
funds remain of the undisbursed Development Financing
proceeds to complete the Project and that all funds
previously disbursed have been applied as per the previous
Application for Payment.
b. Waivers of Mechanics' Liens and Materialmen's
Liens executed by all Contractors for all work done and all
materials furnished to the Leased Premises and included in
such current Application for Payment, or evidence reasonably
required by Title to insure over the same by special
specific endorsement, or such other releases or lien
pursuant to bonding or otherwise to prevent such liens from
attaching to the Leased Premises.
c. Waivers of Mechanics' Liens and Materialmen's
Liens executed by all Sub-Contractors and workmen and
materialmen for all work done and all materials furnished to
the Leased Premises and included in the immediately
preceding Application for Payment, or evidence reasonably
required by Title to insure over the same by special
specific endorsement, or such other releases or lien
pursuant to bonding or otherwise to prevent such liens from
attaching to the Leased Premises.
d. Such other supporting evidence, including
invoices and receipts as may be requested by Lessor or LTIC-
CDD to substantiate all payments which are to be made out of
the Disbursement or to substantiate all payments then made
in respect to the Project.
2. INTEREST ADVANCE - If interest has accrued on the
Development Financing and is unpaid or fees are payable to
the Lessor hereunder, Lessor shall be, and hereby is,
authorized at any time to advance to itself from the
proceeds of the Development Financing the total amount of
such accrued interest and fees, whether or not an
Application for Payment has been submitted by the Lessee and
the same shall be deemed to be an advance of the proceeds of
the Development Financing under this Agreement in the same
manner and with the same effect as if advanced under the
provisions above. It is understood Lessor may establish an
automatic interest reserve whereby Lessor may withdraw from
the Development Financing account on a regular basis the
accrued interest on the Development Financing and credit the
Development Financing balance with the same.
3. ASSESSMENT AND TAX ADVANCE - As taxes and assessments
become due on the Leased Premises, Lessor shall be, and
hereby is, authorized to advance to itself automatically
from the proceeds of the Development Financing, the total
amount of such taxes and assessments and the same shall be
deemed to be an advance of the proceeds of the Development
Financing under this Agreement in the same manner and with
the same effect as if advances under the provisions above,
if not previously paid before due pursuant to Lessee's
obligations under the Lease.
4. DISBURSE UNDER DEVELOPMENT FINANCING DOCUMENT - All sums
advanced and disbursed hereunder shall be disbursed under
and shall be secured by the Development Financing Documents.
5. PAYMENTS TO SUBCONTRACTORS - In its reasonable discretion
LTIC-CDD may make payments directly to any subcontractor or
materialman.
6. RETAINAGE - Each Disbursement shall be limited to an
amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the value, exclusive
of Contractor's profit and overhead, of the materials and
labor furnished to the Leased Premises and the balance
(herein called the Retainage) shall be retained by Lessor,
provided that thirty (30) days after completion by each
subcontractor or materialman of his subcontract Lessor will
disburse to such party, or to the Contractor on behalf of
such party the Retainage withheld from said party, provided
that as a condition to such disbursement the Lessee and
Project Architect and the Inspecting Architect shall certify
to Lessor the date that such Party's subcontract has been
fully and satisfactorily completed and the subcontractor or
materialmen shall have supplied Title with satisfactory
final lien waivers, including final lien waivers for any of
its submaterialmen or sub- contractors and the requirements
of any bonding company issuing the Bonds shall have been
fulfilled. Any Retainage due the Contractor for work
performed or materials furnished by the Contractor and the
final balance of Contractor's profit and overhead shall be
disbursed on the Final Disbursement Date pursuant to Article
IX hereof. Contractor's profit and overhead shall be
disbursed based upon and in proportion to the percentage of
completion of the Project, or amounts payable under the
Construction Contract for work actually performed, whichever
is less, as certified by the Project Architect.

ARTICLE XIII
DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION, CONDEMNATION, USE OF INSURANCE
PROCEEDS
1. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF THE LEASED PREMISES. Lessee
will give the Lessor prompt notice of any damage to or
destruction of the Leased Premises and in case of loss
covered by policies of insurance the Lessor (whether before
or after the exercise of the Put if Lessee be in default
hereof) is hereby authorized at its option to settle and
adjust any claim arising out of such policies and collect
and receipt for the proceeds payable therefrom, provided,
that the Lessee may itself adjust and collect for any losses
arising out of a single occurrence aggregating not in excess
of $50,000.00. Any expense incurred by the Lessor in the
adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds (including
the cost of any independent appraisal of the loss or damage
on behalf of Lessor) shall be reimbursed to the Lessor first
out of any proceeds. The proceeds or any part thereof shall
be applied to reduction of the Put Price, which Put may then
be exercised by Lessor, without the application of any
prepayment premium, or to the restoration or repair of the
Leased Premises, the choice of application to be solely at
the discretion of Lessor.
2. CONDEMNATION. Lessee will give the Lessor prompt
notice of any action, actual or threatened, in condemnation
or eminent domain affecting the Leased Premises and hereby
assigns, transfers, and sets over to the Lessor the entire
proceeds of any award or claim for damages for all or any
part of the Leased Premises taken or damaged under the power
of eminent domain or condemnation, the Lessor being hereby
authorized to intervene in any such action and to collect
and receive from the condemning authorities and give proper
receipts and acquittances for such proceeds. Lessee will
not enter into any agreements with the condemning authority
permitting or consenting to the taking of the Leased
Premises unless prior written consent of Lessor is obtained.
Any expenses incurred by the Lessor in intervening in such
action or collecting such proceeds shall be reimbursed to
the Lessor first out of the proceeds. The proceeds or any
part thereof shall be applied to reduction of the Put Price,
which Put may then be exercised by Lessor, without the
application of any prepayment premium, or to the restoration
or repair of the Leased Premises, the choice of application
to be solely at the discretion of Lessor.
3. DISBURSEMENT OF INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS.
Any
restoration or repair shall be done under the supervision of
an architect acceptable to Lessor and pursuant to plans and
specifications approved by the Lessor. Subject to paragraph
4 below, in any case where Lessor may elect to apply the
proceeds to repair or restoration or permit the Lessee to so
apply the proceeds they shall be held by Lessor for such
purposes and will from time to time be disbursed by Lessor
to defray the costs of such restoration or repair under such
safeguards and controls as Lessor may reasonably require to
assure completion in accordance with the approved plans and
specifications and free of liens or claims. Lessee shall on
demand deposit with Lessor any sums necessary to make up any
deficits between the actual cost of the work and the
proceeds and provide such lien waivers and completion bonds
as Lessor may reasonably require. Any surplus which may
remain after payment of all costs of restoration or repair
shall be applied against the rent then most remotely to be
paid, whether due or not, without application of any
prepayment premium or credit.
4. LESSOR TO MAKE PROCEEDS AVAILABLE. In the event of
insured damage to the improvements or in the event of a
taking by condemnation of only a portion of the improvements
or land area of the Leased Premises, and provided, the
portion remaining can with restoration or repair continue to
be operated for the purposes utilized immediately prior to
such damage or taking, and if the appraised value of the
Leased Premises after such restoration or repair shall not
have been reduced, and provided further, no event of default
exists under this Agreement after the expiration of any
applicable cure periods and Lessee is diligently pursuing a
course of conduct reasonably designed to cure such default,
and the Lessee certified to Lessor their intention to remain
in possession of the Leased Premises without any abatement
or adjustment of rental payments, the Lessor agrees to make
the proceeds available to the restoration or repair of the
improvements on the Leased Premises in accordance with the
provisions of paragraph 3 hereof.
ARTICLE XIV
MANDATORY PUT UPON DEFAULT
Should Lessee commit an event of Default under this
Agreement or any Development Financing Document (after the
expiration of any applicable notice and cure period)
("Uncured Default"), Lessor shall have the following rights:
Upon an Uncured Default, or damage or destruction or
condemnation of the Leased Premises not addressed by
paragraph XIII (4), if Lessor elects to exercise the
following option, Lessee shall purchase the Leased Premises
from Lessor subject to the following terms and conditions:
A. The purchase price at which Lessor shall sell
the Leased Premises to Lessee, shall be the total amount of
Initial Disbursed Funds disbursed by Lessor to acquire the
Leased Premises at the Closing Date (as defined in the
Commitment), plus the total amount of funds disbursed
pursuant to this Agreement, plus all accrued interest and
incurred expenses of Lessor fundable pursuant to this
Agreement, plus all reasonable costs of collection and
enforcement of the terms hereof.
B. At such time as Lessor shall elect to sell the
Leased Premises, Lessor shall give Lessee written notice of
its intent to exercise its option to sell the Leased
Premises to Lessee, including in such notice Lessor's
calculation of the Purchase Price through the actual closing
of the sale of the Leased Premises to Lessee pursuant to the
terms hereof (the "Sale Date"), which shall be sixty days
from such notice by Lessor. Lessee shall on or before the
Sale Date deliver the purchase price as set forth in
subparagraph (A) of this Article to Lessor. Upon such
delivery, which shall be preceded by ten (10) days notice to
Lessor, Lessor shall deliver to Lessee a warranty deed and
appropriate affidavits evidencing that Lessor transfers the
Leased Premises to Lessee subject to restrictions, easements
or other encumbrances upon title existing as of the date of
delivery, if any, except to the extent, if any, placed of
record or caused by Lessor. The purchase price to be paid
to Lessor shall be a net amount. All expenses in connection
with the transfer of the Leased Premises, including, but not
limited to appraisal fees, title insurance, recording fees,
documentary stamps, conveyance tax, title evidence, and all
other closing costs, shall be paid by the Lessee. The
purchase price shall be paid by Lessee in cash to Lessor
concurrently with the conveyance of the Leased Premises by
the Lessor to the Lessee. If Lessor elects to sell the
Leased Premises to Lessee pursuant to the terms hereof, the
Leased Premises shall be conveyed by the Lessor to the
Lessee "As Is".
If Lessee shall fail to pay the Purchase Price on or
before the Sale Date, Lessor may terminate the Lease, and
sell the Leased Premises to any third party purchaser.
Lessor may then send Lessee notice of the shortfall (the
"Deficiency"), if any, between the amount of the net
proceeds received by Lessor in such sale, and the total
amount of Initial Disbursed Funds disbursed by Lessor to
acquire the Parcel at the Closing Date (as defined in the
Commitment), plus the total amount of funds disbursed
pursuant to this Agreement, plus all accrued interest and
incurred expenses of Lessor fundable pursuant to this
Agreement, plus all reasonable costs of collection and
enforcement of the terms hereof. Lessee shall immediately
upon receipt of such notice of Deficiency remit the amount
of the Deficiency in good funds to Lessor.
Lessor's rights under this Mandatory Put shall expire on
the Final Disbursement Date when the amendment to the Lease
has been executed by all parties as set forth in Article IX
hereof.
ARTICLE XV
RENT, INTEREST, AND RENTAL MODIFICATION DATE
1. Rent shall be payable by Lessee and calculated as
follows, on the funds advanced by Lessor on the Closing Date
for the purchase of the land and related closing costs (the
"Initial Disbursed Funds"): Rent shall accrue in the amount
of $8,814.27 per month absent an uncured Default by Lessee;
absent an uncured Default, accrued rent during the period of
construction of the Improvements shall not be payable until
the Final Disbursement Date. Upon the occurrence of an
uncured Default, all accrued rent shall be immediately due
and payable.
On the Rental Modification Date, if not otherwise in
default hereunder, Lessee shall begin paying Rent by the

month in which the Rental Modification Date occurs, payable
with the first such adjusted Rent payable on the first day
of the first full month following the Rental Modification
Date) in the amount of $13,221.41 per month out of pocket.
On the Final Disbursement Date, absent an Uncured Default,
Rent shall be adjusted and documented by the lease amendment
contemplated in Article IX hereof and paid to Lessor as
described in Article F. of the Commitment.
2. Disbursed proceeds of the Development
Financing shall accrue interest at a rate of seven percent
(7.0%) per annum, which interest shall accrue unpaid unless
advanced by Lessor to itself, or Lessee shall default
hereunder, which default shall remain uncured after the
expiration of any applicable notice and cure period.
However, one hundred and eighty days (180) from the date
hereof, (the "Rental Modification Date"), Lessee shall begin
making monthly payments of subsequently accruing interest at
the rate of 10.5% per annum out of pocket ("Out of Pocket
Invoiced Interest") within 5 days after invoice from Lessor.
3. Upon the occurrence of an event of default which
remains uncured after the
expiration of applicable notice and cure periods, disbursed
proceeds of the Development
Financing shall accrue interest at a rate of Fifteen Percent
(15.0%) per annum, or the highest rate allowed by law,
whichever is less, and the rental rate on the Initial
Disbursed funds shall increase to Fifteen Percent (15.0%)
per annum, or the highest rental rate allowed by law,
whichever is less.
