The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by such Borrower, its Principal and/or any Guarantor, as applicable, will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of such Borrower pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, partnership agreement, management agreement or other agreement or instrument to which such Borrower is a party or by which any of such Borrower’s property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Borrower or any of such Borrower’s properties or assets, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any such Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by such Borrower, its Principal and/or any Guarantor, as applicable, of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

4.1.4 Litigation. Except as disclosed to Lender in writing prior to the date hereof, there are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other agency now pending, or to Borrowers’ knowledge, threatened against or affecting either of the Borrowers, either of the Principals, any Guarantor or either of the Properties, which actions, suits or proceedings, if determined against one or more of the Borrowers, Principals, Guarantor or the Properties, might materially adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of either of the Borrowers, either of the Principals, any Guarantor or the condition or ownership of either of the Properties.

4.1.5 Agreements. Such Borrower is not a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which might materially and adversely affect such Borrower or the Properties or any part thereof, or such Borrower’s business, properties or assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise. Such Borrower is not in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which such Borrower or the Properties or any part thereof are bound.

4.1.6 Title. Borrowers have good, marketable and insurable fee simple title to the real property comprising part of the Properties or any part thereof, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. The Permitted Encumbrances in the aggregate do not materially and adversely affect the value, operation or use of the Properties (as currently used) or Borrowers’ ability to repay the Loan.

The fair saleable value of Borrowers’ assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, be greater than Borrowers’ probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of their contingent liabilities on their debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrowers’ assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out their respective businesses as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrowers do not intend to, and do not believe that they will, incur debts and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond their ability to pay such debts and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by each Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of the obligations of each Borrower).

Since the date of such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, operation or business of such Borrower from that set forth in said financial statements.

5.1.1 Existence; Compliance with Legal Requirements. Each Borrower shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights, licenses, permits and franchises and comply with all Legal Requirements

applicable to such Borrower and the Properties or any part thereof, including Prescribed Laws. There shall never be committed by either Borrower, and neither Borrower shall permit any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Properties or any part thereof to commit, any act or omission affording the federal government or any state or local government the right of forfeiture against the Properties or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrowers’ obligations under any of the Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby covenants and agrees not to commit, permit or suffer to exist any act or omission affording such right of forfeiture. Each Borrower shall at all times maintain, preserve and protect all franchises and trade names, and preserve all the remainder of its property used or useful in the conduct of its business, and shall keep the Properties in good working order and repair, and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all reasonably necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereto, all as more fully provided in the Mortgage.

Lender may apply any such security, as necessary to cause compliance with such Legal Requirement at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the validity, applicability or violation of such Legal Requirement is finally established or the Properties (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost.

5.1.2 Taxes and Other Charges. Borrowers shall pay all Taxes and Other Charges now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Properties, or any part thereof, as the same become due and payable; provided, however, that Borrowers’ obligation to directly pay Taxes shall be suspended for so long as Borrowers comply with the terms and provisions of Section 7.2 hereof. Borrowers will deliver to Lender receipts for payment or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the Taxes and Other Charges have been so paid or are not then delinquent no later than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Taxes and/or Other Charges would otherwise be delinquent if not paid.

Lender may pay over any such cash deposit or part thereof held by Lender to the claimant entitled thereto at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the entitlement of such claimant is established or the Properties (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost or there shall be any danger of the Lien of the Mortgage being primed by any related Lien.

The Annual Budget for each Property shall be subject to Lender’s approval (each such Annual Budget approved by Lender being referred to herein as an “Approved Annual Budget”). In the event Lender objects to a proposed Annual Budget submitted by Borrowers which requires the approval of Lender hereunder, Lender shall advise Borrowers of such objections within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof (and deliver to Borrowers a reasonably detailed description of such objections) and Borrowers shall promptly revise such Annual Budget and resubmit the same to Lender. Lender shall advise Borrowers of any objections to such revised Annual Budget within ten (10) days after receipt thereof (and deliver to Borrowers a reasonably detailed description of such objections) and Borrowers shall promptly revise the same in accordance with the process described in this Subsection until Lender approves the Annual Budget.

amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization, or (ii) the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization.

All renewals of Leases and all proposed Leases shall provide for rental rates comparable to existing local market rates. All proposed Leases shall be on commercially reasonable terms and shall not contain any terms which would materially affect Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents. All Leases executed after the date hereof shall provide that they are subordinate to the Mortgage and that the lessee agrees to attorn to Lender or any purchaser at a sale by foreclosure or power of sale.

Borrowers shall obtain Lender’s prior consent to any alterations to any Improvements, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed except with respect to any alterations to any Improvements which may have a material adverse effect on Borrowers’ financial condition, the value of the Properties or the Net Operating Income. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender’s consent shall not be required in connection with any alterations that will not have a material adverse effect on Borrowers’ financial condition, the value of the Properties or the Net Operating Income, provided that such alterations (a) are made in connection with tenant improvement work performed pursuant to, or alterations permitted without Borrowers’ consent by, the terms of any Lease approved by Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (b) do not adversely affect any structural component of any Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any Improvements or the exterior of any building constituting a part of any Improvements and the aggregate cost thereof does not exceed Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00), or (c) are performed in connection with Restoration after the occurrence of a Casualty in accordance with the terms and provisions of this

Agreement. If the total unpaid amounts due and payable with respect to alterations to the Improvements at the Properties (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases or by disbursements from the Rollover Reserve Funds) shall at any time exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) (the “Threshold Amount”), Borrowers shall promptly deliver to Lender as security for the payment of such amounts and as additional security for the Obligations any of the following: (i) cash, (ii) U.S. Obligations, (iii) other securities having a rating acceptable to Lender and that the applicable Rating Agencies have confirmed in writing will not, in and of itself, result in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the initial, or, if higher, then current ratings assigned to any Securities or any class thereof in connection with any Securitization, (iv) a Letter of Credit, or (v) a completion and performance bond issued by an Approved Bank. Such security shall be in an amount equal to the excess of the total unpaid amounts with respect to alterations to the Improvements on the Properties (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases or by disbursements from the Rollover Reserve Funds) over the Threshold Amount and Lender may apply such security from time to time at the option of Lender to pay for such alterations.

(b) If Borrowers shall be in default under the Parking Easement, then, subject to the terms of the Parking Easement, Borrowers hereby grant Lender the right (but not the obligation), to cause the default or defaults under the Parking Easement to be remedied and otherwise exercise any and all rights of Borrowers under the Parking Easement, as may be necessary to prevent or cure any default, and Lender shall have the right to enter all or any

portion of the Easement Parcel at such times and in such manner as Lender deems necessary, to prevent or to cure any such default.

(c) Upon the occurrence of any material default by Easement Grantor under the Parking Easement, Borrowers shall diligently pursue all of their remedies thereunder and at law and in equity to enforce the terms of the Parking Easement and Easement Grantor’s obligations thereunder.

(d) The actions or payments of Lender to cure any default by Borrowers under the Parking Easement shall not remove or waive, as between Borrowers and Lender, any Default or Event of Default that may occur under this Agreement by virtue of the default by Borrowers under the Parking Easement. All sums expended by Lender to cure any such default shall be paid by Borrowers to Lender, upon demand, with interest on such sum at the Default Rate from the date such sum is expended to and including the date the reimbursement payment is made to Lender. All such indebtedness shall be deemed to be secured by the Mortgage and the other applicable Loan Documents.

(e) Borrowers shall give Lender a copy of all material notices and communications transmitted between parties to the Parking Easement pursuant or relating to the Parking Easement. Borrowers shall specifically notify Lender promptly in writing of the occurrence of any material default by any Easement Grantor under the Parking Easement, or the occurrence of any event that, with the passage of time or service of notice, or both, would constitute a material default by Easement Grantor, and the receipt by Borrowers of any notice (written or otherwise) from Easement Grantor, or the transmittal by Borrowers of any notice (written or otherwise) to Easement Grantor, noting or claiming the occurrence of any default by any party under the Parking Easement, or the occurrence of any event that, with the passage of time or service of notice, or both, would constitute a default by either party to the Parking Easement. Borrowers shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of any such written notice of default.

(f) Within ten (10) days after receipt of written demand by Lender, Borrowers shall use reasonable efforts to obtain from Easement Grantor and furnish to Lender the estoppel certificate of Easement Grantor stating such facts as may be reasonably requested by Lender with respect to the Parking Easement, including whether or not there are any defaults by Easement Grantor or Tower Borrower under the Parking Easement, and specifying the nature of such claimed defaults, if any.

(g) Borrowers shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lender such instruments as may reasonably be required to permit Lender to cure any default under the Parking Easement or permit Lender to take such other action required to enable Lender to cure or remedy the matter in default and preserve the security interest of Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to the Easement Parcel. Each Borrower irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to do, in its name or otherwise, any and all acts and to execute any and all documents that are necessary to preserve any rights of such Borrower under or with respect to the Parking Easement, including the right to effectuate any extension or renewal of the Parking Easement, or to preserve any rights of such Borrower whatsoever in respect of any part

of the Parking Easement (and the above powers granted to Lender are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable).

The amount of such business income insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on the Borrowers’ reasonable estimate of the gross income from the applicable Property and the Vacant Space Rent, if any, for the succeeding thirty (30) month period.

In the event that the annual premium for terrorism coverage in an amount equal to the "Full Replacement Cost" coverage exceeds the Terrorism Insurance Cap, Borrowers shall be required to maintain as much terrorism coverage as is available for a premium equal to the Terrorism Insurance Cap; and

(xi) upon sixty (60) days’ notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for properties similar to the Properties located in or around the region in which the Properties are located.

(b) All insurance provided for in Section 6.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by a syndicate of not less than five (5) financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State, of which either (i) one hundred percent (100%) shall have a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better (and the equivalent thereof) by at least two (2) of the Rating Agencies rating the Securities (one of which must be S&P if S&P is rating the Securities, and one of which must be Moody’s if ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ is rating the Securities), or if only one Rating Agency is rating the Securities, then only by such Rating Agency, or (ii) sixty percent (60%) shall have a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better (and the equivalent thereof) by at least two (2) of the Rating Agencies rating the Securities (one of which must be S&P if S&P is rating the Securities, and one of which must be Moody’s if ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ is rating the Securities), or if only one Rating Agency is rating the Securities, then only by such Rating Agency, and the remaining forty percent (40%) of which shall have a claims paying ability rating of “BBB-” or better (and the equivalent thereof) by at least two (2) of the Rating Agencies rating the Securities (one of which must be S&P if S&P is rating the Securities, and one of which must be Moody’s if ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ is rating the Securities), or if only one Rating Agency is rating the Securities, then only by such Rating Agency. The Policies described in Section 6.1(a) hereof (other than those strictly limited to liability protection) shall designate Lender as mortgagee and loss payee. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender, certificates of insurance evidencing the Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”), shall be delivered by Borrowers to Lender.

(c) The insurance coverage required under this Section 6.1 may be effected under one or more blanket Policies covering the Properties and other property and assets not constituting a part of the Properties; provided that any blanket Policy shall specify, except in the

case of general liability insurance, the portion of the total coverage of such blanket Policy that is allocated exclusively to each Property and shall comply in all respects with the requirements of this Section 6.1. Lender hereby confirms that it approves (i) the terms of the existing “Property Insurance Sharing Agreement” among Borrowers and certain of its Affiliates, and (ii) that the Insurance Premiums are financed through one or more finance companies (individually and/or collectively, the “Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement”) to whom Borrower’s pay Borrowers’ allocable share of the annual initial deposit and the monthly payments due for each blanket Policy to the applicable finance company (with respect to each blanket Policy, such monthly payment, together with one-twelfth (1/12th) of the allocable share of the annual initial deposit necessary to accumulate such allocable share for such Policy at least thirty (30) days prior to its due date, each, a “Financing Installment”).

(d) All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 6.1(a) hereof, except for the Policy referenced in Section 6.1(a)(v) hereof, shall name Borrowers as the insured and Lender (and its Affiliates) as additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

(e) All Policies provided for in Section 6.1 hereof shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

(i) no act or negligence of either Borrower, or anyone acting for either Borrower, or of any tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;

(ii) the Policies shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured;

(iii) the issuers thereof shall give notice to Lender if the Policies have not been renewed fifteen (15) days prior to its expiration; and

(iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

(f) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all Policies are in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrowers, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Properties, including the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrowers to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

Section 6.2 Casualty. If either Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrowers shall (a) give prompt notice of such damage to Lender, and (b) promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of Restoration so that such Property resembles, as nearly as possible, the condition such Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Lender and otherwise in accordance with Section 6.4 hereof. Borrowers shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrowers. In addition, Lender may participate in any settlement discussions with any insurance companies (and shall approve any final settlement) with respect to any Casualty in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) and Borrowers shall deliver to Lender all instruments required by Lender to permit such participation.

Section 6.3 Condemnation. Borrowers shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding in respect of any Condemnation affecting any Property, and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrowers shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments reasonably requested by Lender to permit such participation. Borrowers shall, at their expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrowers shall continue to perform the Obligations at the time and in the manner provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Outstanding Principal Balance shall not be reduced until any Condemnation Proceeds shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Obligations. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Condemnation Proceeds by the applicable Governmental Authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Condemnation Proceeds interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Notes. If any Property or any portion thereof is taken by a Governmental Authority, Borrowers shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute Restoration of the applicable Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 6.4 herein. If any Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Condemnation Proceeds, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on either Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Condemnation Proceeds, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

Section 6.4 Restoration. The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of either Property:

(a) If the Net Proceeds with respect to either Property shall be less than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) and the costs of completing Restoration of such Property shall be less than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00), the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrowers upon receipt, provided, that all of the conditions set forth in Section 6.4(b)(i) hereof are met and

Borrowers deliver to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration of such Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If the Net Proceeds with respect to either Property are equal to or greater Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00), or the costs of completing Restoration of such Property is equal to or greater than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00), the Net Proceeds will be held by Lender and Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration of such Property in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4. The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 6.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to Section 6.1 (a)(i), (iv), (vi), (ix) and (x) as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel costs and fees), if any, in collecting same (“Insurance Proceeds”), or (ii) the net amount of any payments received from a Governmental Authority on account of Condemnation or in any transaction or proceeding in lieu thereof, after deduction of the reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel costs and fees), if any, in collecting same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.

(i) In the event that the Net Proceeds equal or exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00), the Net Proceeds shall, at the option of Lender in its discretion, be applied to the payment of the Obligations or applied to reimburse Borrowers for the cost of the Restoration of the applicable Property in the manner set forth below. In the event that the Net Proceeds are less than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00), the Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrowers for the Restoration of the applicable Property upon the approval of Lender that the following conditions are met:

(A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the applicable Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty, or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than fifteen percent (15%) of the land constituting the applicable Property is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of such Property, and no portion of the related Improvements is located on such land;

(C) Leases demising in the aggregate a percentage amount equal to or greater than ninety percent (90%) of the total rentable space in the applicable Property which has been demised under executed and delivered Leases in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or

Condemnation, whichever the case may be, shall remain in full force and effect during and after completion of the Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, and will make all necessary repairs and restorations thereto at their sole cost and expense;

(D) Borrowers shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(E) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Notes, which will be incurred with respect to the Properties as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 6.1(a)(iii) hereof, if applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrowers;

(F) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration of such Property will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Leases, (3) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements, or (4) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 6.1(a)(iii) hereof;

(G) such Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements;

(H) the Restoration of such Property shall be done and completed Borrowers in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements;

(I) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in a material loss of access to any portion of such Property or the related Improvements;

(J) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the next twelve (12) full calendar months, after giving effect to the Restoration, shall be equal to or greater than 1.20:1.00;

(K) the Loan-to-Value Ratio after giving effect to Restoration, shall be equal to or less than seventy five percent (75%);

(L) Borrowers shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrowers’ architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration of such Property, which budget shall be acceptable to Lender; and

(M) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrowers with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s reasonable discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration of such Property.

(ii) The Net Proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender for deposit in an interest-bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and the Other Obligations. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrowers from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanics’ or materialmans’ liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the affected Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the Title Company.

(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with such Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in such Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrowers.

(iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 6.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrowers from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of such Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any

contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the Title Company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the related Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrowers shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 6.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and the Other Obligations.

(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration of the applicable Property has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender (I) to the Mezzanine Cash Management Account, or (II) if the Mezzanine Loan has been paid in full, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing, to Borrowers.

(c) All Net Proceeds not required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (i) to be made available for Restoration, or (ii) to be returned to a Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(vii) hereof, may be retained and applied by Lender in accordance with Section 2.4.2 hereof toward reduction of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper, or, in Lender’s discretion, the same may be paid, (A) if the Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, to the Mezzanine Cash Management Account, or (B) if the Mezzanine Loan has been paid in full, to Borrowers either in whole or in part, for such purposes as Lender shall approve in its discretion. No prepayment charge shall be payable by Borrowers by reason of a Casualty or Condemnation so

long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing prior to such Casualty or Condemnation.

(d) In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to any Property or Properties in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrowers in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning such Property or Properties and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

Amounts so deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender in accordance with Section 7.6 hereof. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrowers’ “Required Repair Funds” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Required Repair Account”. Borrowers shall perform the repairs at the Properties as more particularly set forth on Schedule II hereto (such repairs hereinafter collectively referred to as “Required Repairs”). Borrowers shall complete the Required Repairs on or before the required deadline for each repair as set forth on Schedule II. It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement if (a) Borrowers do not complete the Required Repairs by the required deadline for each repair as set forth on Schedule II (except for postponement of such deadlines as a result of Unavoidable Delays), or (b) Borrowers do not satisfy each condition contained in Section 7.1.2 hereof. Upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default, Lender, at its option, may withdraw all Required Repair Funds from the Required Repair Account and Lender may apply such funds either to completion of the Required Repairs or toward payment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine. Lender’s right to withdraw and apply Required Repair Funds shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

7.1.2 Release of Required Repair Funds. (a) Lender shall disburse to Borrowers the Required Repair Funds from the Required Repair Account from time to time, but not more frequently than once in any thirty (30) day period, upon satisfaction by Borrowers of each of the following conditions with respect to each disbursement: (i) Borrowers shall submit a written request for payment to Lender (with a copy to the Title Company) at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which Borrowers request such payment be made, which request specifies the Required Repairs to be paid, (ii) on the date such request is received by Lender and on the date such payment is to be made, no Event of Default shall exist and remain uncured, (iii) Lender shall have received an Officer’s Certificate for each Borrower (A) stating that all Required Repairs to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed in a good and

Lender shall not be required to make disbursements from the Required Repair Account unless such requested disbursement is in an amount greater than $5,000.00 (or a lesser amount if the total amount in the Required Repair Account is less than $5,000.00, in which case only one disbursement of the amount remaining in the account shall be made) and such disbursement shall be made only upon satisfaction of each condition contained in this Section 7.1.2.

(b) Nothing in this Section 7.1.2 shall (i) make Lender responsible for performing or completing any Required Repairs; (ii) require Lender to expend funds in addition to the Required Repairs Funds to complete any Required Repairs; (iii) obligate Lender to proceed with any Required Repairs; or (iv) obligate Lender to demand from Borrowers additional sums to complete any Required Repairs.

(c) Borrowers shall permit Lender and Lender’s agents and representatives (including Lender’s engineer, architect or inspector) or third parties to enter onto the Properties during normal business hours (subject to the rights of tenants under their Leases) to inspect the progress of any Required Repairs and all materials being used in connection therewith and to examine all plans and shop drawings relating to such Required Repairs. Borrowers shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Lender or Lender’s representatives or such other Persons described above in connection with inspections described in this Section 7.1.2(c).

(d) If a disbursement will exceed $50,000.00, Lender may require an inspection of the applicable Property or Properties at Borrowers’ expense prior to making a disbursement of Required Repairs Funds in order to verify completion of the Required Repairs for which reimbursement is sought. Lender may require that such inspection be conducted by an appropriate independent qualified professional selected by Lender and may require a certificate of completion by an independent qualified professional architect acceptable to Lender prior to the disbursement of Required Repairs Funds. Borrowers shall pay the expense of the inspection as required hereunder, whether such inspection is conducted by Lender or by an independent qualified professional architect.

(e) In addition to any insurance required under the Loan Documents, Borrowers shall provide or cause to be provided worker’s compensation insurance, builder’s risk,

and public liability insurance and other insurance to the extent required under applicable law in connection with the Required Repairs. All such policies shall be in form and amount reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

7.1.3 Balance in Required Repair Account. The insufficiency of any balance in the Required Repair Account shall not relieve Borrowers from their obligation to perform the Required Repairs in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all Legal Requirements.

Section 7.2 Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds. Borrowers shall pay to Lender (i)(A) on the Closing Date, an amount equal to $2,029,336.48 and (i)(B) on each Payment Date, one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to their delinquency date, and (ii)(A) on the Closing Date, an amount equal to $288,259.50 (the “Initial Blanket Insurance Premium Installment”) and (ii)(B) for so long as the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement remains in full force and effect, on each Payment Date, the Financing Installment for the next occurring payment under the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement and/or (ii)(C) with respect to any Insurance Premiums not covered by a Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, on each Payment Date, one-twelfth (1/12th) of such Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies for an annual period upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) being hereinafter called the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds”). Such amounts will be transferred by Lender to an account held by Lender (the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Account”). The Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds and the Monthly Interest Payment shall be added together and shall be paid as an aggregate sum by Borrowers to Lender. Provided no Event of Default shall exist, Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrowers pursuant to Sections 5.1.2 and 6.1 hereof and under the Mortgage and/or to payments due to the applicable finance company under the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, as applicable. In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds, Lender may do so according to any ▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such ▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Sections 5.1.2 and 6.1 hereof, Lender shall credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds. Any amount remaining in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds after the Debt has been paid in full shall be transferred to the Mezzanine Cash Management Account or, if the Mezzanine Loan has been paid in full, returned to Borrowers. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal with the Person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the applicable Property and/or Properties. If at any time Lender determines that the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds are not or will not be sufficient to pay the items set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above, Lender shall notify Borrowers of such determination and Borrowers shall increase their monthly payments to Lender by the amount that

Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the Taxes and/or expiration of the Policies, as the case may be. All earnings of interest on the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds shall become part of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds and shall be disbursed in accordance with this Section 7.2. If Lender so elects at any time, Borrowers shall provide, at Borrowers’ expense, a tax service contract for the term of the Loan issued by a tax reporting agency acceptable to Lender. If Lender does not so elect, Borrowers shall reimburse Lender for the cost of making annual tax searches throughout the term of the Loan.

Lender may require an inspection of the applicable Property at Borrowers’ expense prior to making a disbursement in order to verify compliance with the requirements of this Section 7.4.2. For so long as Gas Company Reserve Funds are on deposit with Lender, requests for disbursements to pay Approved Leasing Expenses for the Gas Company Space shall be made from the Gas Company Reserve Funds, and not from Rollover Reserve Funds.

7.5.1 Deposit of Gas Company Reserve Funds. In the event that (a) Gas Company shall not have exercised the extension option contained in the Gas Company Lease on or prior to May 8, 2010, or (b) Gas Company vacates or gives notice of its intent to vacate the Gas Company Space or otherwise closes its business for any reason (other than during the period from the occurrence of a Casualty affecting the Tower Parcel through the date the damage to the Tower Parcel from such Casualty is restored and repaired), unless the long term unsecured debt rating of Gas Company (or if rated higher, the long term unsecured debt rating of any parent company of Gas Company providing a lease guaranty of the Gas Company Lease) is “BBB” or better or Gas Company has sublet all of the Gas Company Space for a term equal to the lesser of five (5) years or the remaining term of the Gas Company Lease, at a Full Service Gross Rent that is not less than the Full Service Gross Rent payable by Gas Company under the Gas Company Lease and such sublease shall otherwise be on such terms and conditions and demised to such subtenant or subtenants as shall be acceptable to Lender in its reasonable discretion and otherwise in compliance with the provisions of Section 5.1.20 hereof; or (c) Gas Company is in default under the Gas Company Lease beyond any applicable grace and cure periods, or (d) Gas Company is the subject of a Bankruptcy Action, or (e) Gas Company (or, if a lease guaranty is provided by Gas Company’s parent company for all of the obligations of Gas Company under the Gas Company Lease, such parent company) fails to maintain an Investment Grade Rating (a “Downgrade Sweep Event”) (the occurrence of any of such events described in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), or (e) is hereinafter referred to as an “Gas Company Trigger Event”); then on each Payment Date following the occurrence of any such Gas Company Trigger Event, Borrower shall deposit all Excess Cash Flow (such funds so deposited being referred to herein as the “Gas Company Reserve Funds”) into an account (the “Gas Company Reserve Account”) held by Lender (it being specifically agreed and understood that Borrowers shall be required to continue to make such deposits of Excess Cash Flow into the Gas Company Reserve Account until a Gas Company Sweep Termination (as defined below) occurs Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Gas Company Trigger Event is a Downgrade Sweep Event, and no other Gas Company Trigger Event then exists, the total amount of the deposits in the Gas Company Reserve Account shall be limited to $30,000,000.00; provided, however, that such deposits in the Gas Company Reserve Account shall be increased to $60,000,000.00 if the long term unsecured debt rating of Gas Company (or, if rated higher, the long term unsecured debt rating of any parent company of Gas Company providing a lease guaranty of the Gas Company Lease) is less than “BB-” from (i) prior to a Securitization, S&P and (ii) after a Securitization, any one of ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, S&P, Fitch or any other nationally-recognized statistical rating agency rating the Securities).

The Reserve Funds shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender.

(b) Borrowers shall not, without obtaining the prior consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Reserve Funds or the monies deposited therein or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.

Section 8.2 Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrowers under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrowers or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrowers agree that if an Event of Default is continuing, to the extent permitted by applicable law (i) Lender shall not be subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Properties and the Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Obligations have been paid in full.

(b) Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Notes and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrowers hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoint Lender as their true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in their name and ▇▇▇▇▇ to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrowers ratifying all that their said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrowers by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Except as may be required in connection with a Securitization pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, (i) Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents, and (ii) the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrowers only as of the Closing Date.

(c) Except as limited by applicable law, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Mortgage in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Mortgage then due and payable as determined by Lender, including the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrowers default beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and/or interest, Lender may foreclose the Mortgage to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance, Lender may foreclose the Mortgage to recover so much of the Debt as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Mortgage as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Properties shall remain subject to the Mortgage to secure payment of sums secured by the Mortgage and not previously recovered.

(d) Any amounts recovered from the Properties or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender determines.

(e) The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrowers shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrowers or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

ARTICLE 9

SPECIAL PROVISIONS

Section 9.1 Sale of Notes and Securitization. (a) Borrowers acknowledge and agree that Lender may sell all or any portion of the Loan and the Loan Documents, or require Borrowers to restructure the Loan into multiple notes (which may include component notes and/or senior and junior notes) (“Multiple Notes”) and/or issue one or more participations therein, which restructuring may include reallocation of principal amounts of the Loan or the restructuring of a portion of the Loan into one or more mezzanine loans to the owners of the direct and/or indirect equity interests in either Borrower, secured by a pledge of such interests, or consummate one or more private or public securitizations of rated single or multi-class securities (the “Securities”) secured by or evidencing ownership interests in all or any portion of the Loan and the Loan Documents or a pool of assets that includes the Loan and the Loan Documents (such sales, participations and/or securitizations, collectively, a “Securitization”). At the request of Lender, and to the extent not already required to be provided by Borrowers under this Agreement, Borrowers shall use reasonable efforts to provide information not in the possession of Lender or which may be reasonably required by Lender in order to satisfy the market

standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required by prospective investors and/or the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Securitization, including to:

(i) provide additional and/or updated Provided Information, together with appropriate verification and/or consents related to the Provided Information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent attorneys reasonably acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies;

(ii) assist in preparing descriptive materials for presentations to any or all of the Rating Agencies, and work with, and if requested, supervise, third-party service providers engaged by either of the Borrowers, either of the Principals and their respective Affiliates to obtain, collect, and deliver information requested or required by Lender or the Rating Agencies;

(iii) deliver (A) updated opinions of counsel as to non-consolidation, due execution and enforceability with respect to the Properties, Borrowers, Principals, Guarantor and their respective Affiliates and the Loan Documents, and (B) revised organizational documents for each Borrower, which counsel opinions and organizational documents shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies;

(iv) if required by any Rating Agency, use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver such additional tenant estoppel letters, subordination agreements or other agreements from parties to agreements that affect the Properties, which estoppel letters, subordination agreements or other agreements shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies;

(v) make such representations and warranties as of the closing date of the Securitization with respect to the Properties, Borrowers, Principals, Guarantor and the Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies and consistent with the facts covered by such representations and warranties as they exist on the date thereof, including the representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents;

required to modify any of the Loan Documents if such modification or amendment would (A) have a material adverse economic effect on Borrowers or (B) modify or amend the Loan term, amortization or any other economic term of the Loan or otherwise materially adversely increase the obligations or materially decrease the rights of Borrowers under the Loan Documents, including modifying the transfer, recourse, prepayment, events of default, or remedy provisions, or the organizational documents of either of the Borrowers or its Affiliates;

(vii) if requested by Lender, review any information regarding the Properties, Borrowers, Principals, Guarantor, Manager and the Loan which is contained in a preliminary or final private placement memorandum, prospectus, prospectus supplement (including any amendment or supplement to either thereof), or other disclosure document to be used by Lender or any Affiliate thereof; and

(viii) supply to Lender such documentation, financial statements and reports as may be in the possession or control of any Borrower or its Affiliates in form and substance required in order to comply with any applicable securities laws.

(b) All reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by Borrowers or Guarantor in connection with Borrowers complying with requests made under clause (a) of this Section 9.1 (including the fees and expenses of the Rating Agencies) shall be paid by Borrowers, except that Lender shall reimburse Borrowers for all such costs and expenses in excess of $25,000.00.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.1(a) hereof to the contrary, and without limiting the provisions of Section 9.7.1 and/or 9.7.2 hereof, Borrowers covenant and agree that after the Closing Date and prior to a Securitization, Lender shall have the right to establish different interest rates and to reallocate the amortization and principal balances of each of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan between each other and to require the payment of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided, however, that the weighted average interest rate of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan following any such reallocation or modification shall not be changed from the weighted average interest rate in effect immediately preceding such reallocation or modification; but, provided further, that such modifications may, as a result of prepayments pursuant to which Lender expressly has the right to repay the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan disproportionately, subsequently change the weighted average interest rate.

(d) In connection with a Securitization or other sale of all or a portion of the Loan, Lender shall have the right to modify all operative dates (including payment dates, interest period start dates and end dates, etc) under the Loan Documents, by up to ten (10) days (such action and all related action is a “Re-Dating”). Borrowers shall cooperate with Lender to implement any Re-Dating. If Borrowers fail to cooperate with Lender within ten (10) Business Days of written request by Lender, Lender is hereby appointed as Borrowers’ attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to execute any and all documents necessary to accomplish the Re-Dating such power being irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

(e) All reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by Borrowers, Guarantor or Lender in connection with Borrowers complying with requests made under clauses (c) and (d) of this Section 9.1 (including the fees and expenses of the Rating Agencies) shall be paid by Lender.

Section 9.2 Securitization Indemnification.

(a) Borrowers understand that certain of the Provided Information may be included in Disclosure Documents in connection with the Securitization and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or provided or made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization. In the event that the Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities, Borrowers will cooperate with the holder of the Notes in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects.

(b) The Indemnifying Persons agree to provide, in connection with the Securitization, an indemnification agreement (i) certifying that (A) the Indemnifying Persons have carefully examined such sections of the Disclosure Documents regarding the Properties, Borrowers, Principals, Manager and/or the Loan (to the extent such information relates to or includes any Provided Information) (collectively with the Provided Information, the “Covered Disclosure Information”), and (B) that the Covered Disclosure Information does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (ii) jointly and severally indemnifying Lender, any Affiliate of Lender that has filed any registration statement relating to the Securitization or has acted as the sponsor or depositor in connection with the Securitization, any Affiliate of Lender that acts as an underwriter, placement agent or initial purchaser of Securities issued in the Securitization, any other co-underwriters, co-placement agents or co-initial purchasers of Securities issued in the Securitization, and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, members, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates and each Person or entity who controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Person” and collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses (including legal fees and expenses for enforcement of these obligations (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any of the Disclosure Documents, but only to the extent based upon Provided Information, and which untrue statement or alleged untrue statement is not expressly disclosed to Lender by Borrowers after Borrowers have had an opportunity to review the Disclosure Document, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the Provided Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (iii) agreeing to reimburse each Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person, as they are incurred, in connection with

investigating or defending the Liabilities. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrowers may otherwise have. Moreover, the indemnification provided for in clauses (ii) and (iii) above shall be effective whether or not a separate indemnification agreement described in clause (i) above is provided.

(c) In connection with the Exchange Act Filing, the Indemnifying Persons jointly and severally agree to indemnify (i) the Indemnified Persons for Liabilities to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact in the Provided Information, or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Provided Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and which untrue statement or alleged untrue statement is not expressly disclosed to Lender by Borrowers after Borrowers have had an opportunity to review such Exchange Act Filing, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnified Person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Persons, as they are incurred, in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the Indemnified Person shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any Indemnifying Person, notify such Indemnifying Person in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify such Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under the indemnification provisions of this Section 9.2 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided further that the failure to notify such Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under the provisions of this Section 9.2. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an Indemnified Person, and it shall notify any Indemnifying Person thereof, such Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. After notice from any Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, such Indemnifying Person shall not be liable to the Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof except as provided in the following sentence; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both an Indemnifying Person, on the one hand, and one or more Indemnified Persons on the other hand, and an Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Persons that are different or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person, the Indemnified Person or Persons shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person or Persons. The Indemnified Person shall instruct its counsel to maintain reasonably detailed billing records for fees and disbursements for which such Indemnified Person is seeking reimbursement hereunder and shall submit copies of such detailed billing records to substantiate that such counsel’s fees and disbursements are solely related to the defense of a claim for which the Indemnifying Person is required hereunder to indemnify such Indemnified Person. No Indemnifying Person shall be liable for the expenses of more than one

100

(1) such separate counsel unless such Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to any Indemnifying Person.

(e) Without the prior consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), no Indemnifying Person shall settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless the Indemnifying Person shall have given Lender reasonable prior notice thereof and shall have obtained an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person hereunder from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. As long as an Indemnifying Person has complied with its obligations to defend and indemnify hereunder, such Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement made by any Indemnified Person without the consent of such Indemnifying Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(f) The Indemnifying Persons agree that if any indemnification or reimbursement sought pursuant to this Section 9.2 is finally judicially determined to be unavailable for any reason or is insufficient to hold any Indemnified Person harmless (with respect only to the Liabilities that are the subject of this Section 9.2), then the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, shall contribute to the Liabilities for which such indemnification or reimbursement is held unavailable or is insufficient: (x) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, from the transactions to which such indemnification or reimbursement relates; or (y) if the allocation provided by clause (x) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (x) but also the relative faults of the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and all Indemnified Persons, on the other hand, as well as any other equitable considerations. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.2, (A) no party found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any other party who is not also found liable for such fraudulent misrepresentation, and (B) the Indemnifying Persons agree that in no event shall the amount to be contributed by the Indemnified Persons collectively pursuant to this paragraph exceed the amount of the fees (by underwriting discount or otherwise) actually received by the Indemnified Persons in connection with the closing of the Loan or the Securitization.

(g) The Indemnifying Persons agree that the indemnification, contribution and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 9.2 shall apply whether or not any Indemnified Person is a formal party to any lawsuits, claims or other proceedings. The Indemnifying Persons further agree that the Indemnified Persons are intended third party beneficiaries under this Section 9.2.

(h) The rights liabilities and obligations of the Indemnified Persons and the Indemnifying Persons under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Obligations.

101

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrowers shall have no obligation to act as depositor with respect to the Loan or an issuer or registrant with respect to the Securities issued in any Securitization.

Section 9.4 Exculpation. Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrowers (or any of Borrowers’ members, managers, partners shareholders, officers, directors or Affiliates, whether direct or indirect, collectively, the “Borrower Parties”) to perform and observe the obligations contained in the Notes, this Agreement, the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against either Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under the Notes, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or in any or all of the Properties, the Rents, the Vacant Space Rent or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrowers or the Borrower Parties only to the extent of Borrowers’ or the Borrower Parties’ interest in the Properties, in the Rents, in the Vacant Space Rent and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Notes, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, agrees that it shall not ▇▇▇ for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against either Borrower or the Borrower Parties in any such action or proceeding under, or by reason of, or in connection with, the Notes, this Agreement, the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents.

(ix) any security deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits collected by either Borrower or any Affiliate thereof with respect to either Property or any part thereof which are not delivered to Lender upon a foreclosure of the Properties or any part thereof or action in lieu thereof, except to the extent any such security deposits were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of any of the Leases prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof;

(x) if either Borrower fails to permit on-site inspections of the Properties or any part thereof, fails to provide financial information specifically required by this Agreement or fails to appoint a new Manager upon the request of Lender, each as

103

required by, and in accordance with, the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Mortgage;

(xi) (A) if the Operating Partnership shall default under either of the Master Leases beyond any applicable notice and/or cure period contained therein, or (B) if either Master Lease shall have been amended or modified (except as specified in Section 3.1.21 hereof) without Lender’s prior written consent, or (C) if either Master Lease shall have been terminated, cancelled or surrendered without Lender’s prior written consent in violation of Section 5.2.13 hereof (except as specified in Section 3.1.21 hereof), or (D) if the Operating Partnership is the subject of a Bankruptcy Action, other than an involuntary Bankruptcy Action which is dismissed within ninety (90) days; or

Section 9.7 Restructuring of Loan.

9.7.1 Mezzanine Loan.

(a) Lender and Borrowers have contemporaneously with the negotiation of the Loan Documents also negotiated a complete set of all of the material mezzanine loan documents, true, correct and complete copies of which are attached as Exhibits 1-12 hereto (the “Proposed Mezzanine Loan Documents”). The Proposed Mezzanine Loan Documents have been negotiated in anticipation of Lender, subsequent to the Closing Date, splitting off a portion of the Loan to create, and enter into, a mezzanine loan (the “Anticipated Mezzanine Loan”), which Anticipated Mezzanine Loan: (i) shall be on substantially the same terms as the Loan (to the extent applicable to a mezzanine loan) as embodied in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (to the extent applicable to a mezzanine loan), except that, without limitation, the non-default interest rate applicable to such Anticipated Mezzanine Loan may be greater than the Interest Rate, so long as the weighted non-default interest rate of the Loan and such Anticipated Mezzanine Loan shall, at the time of the creation of such Anticipated Mezzanine Loan, equal the Interest Rate; (ii) shall have a maturity date of not earlier than the Maturity Date for the Loan; and (iii) shall be made utilizing the Proposed Mezzanine Loan Documents, together with such other ancillary documents and deliveries as are customary or necessary in Lender’s reasonable judgment and, to the extent applicable, are either in substantially the same form as were executed and delivered in connection with the Loan or are otherwise reasonably acceptable to Mezzanine Borrowers. From and after the consummation, if ever, of the Anticipated Mezzanine Loan, such Anticipated Mezzanine Loan shall thereafter be referred to herein and in the other Loan Documents as the “Mezzanine Loan”.

(b) In connection with the negotiation and consummation of the Anticipated Mezzanine Loan, Borrowers and Operating Partnership shall, and Operating Partnership shall cause Mezzanine Borrowers to, cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to

105

create the Anticipated Mezzanine Loan, including (i) negotiating, executing and delivering loan documents in form and substance identical to the Proposed Mezzanine Loan Documents, and to the extent additional documentation is required, in a form substantially similar to the parallel Loan Document, containing representations, warranties and covenants substantially identical to those set forth in the Loan Documents or otherwise reasonably acceptable to Mezzanine Borrowers, and (ii) causing Mezzanine Borrowers’ counsel to deliver such legal opinions as Lender shall reasonably request, all in form and substance substantially identical to those provided in connection with the Loan or otherwise reasonably acceptable to Mezzanine Borrowers.

(c) Borrowers and Operating Partnership shall expeditiously and in good faith negotiate, execute and/or deliver, or Operating Partnership shall cause Mezzanine Borrowers to negotiate, execute and/or deliver, any material agreement, document, title insurance coverage, opinion letter or other item contemplated by this Section 9.7.1 or otherwise reasonably requested by Lender in connection with the consummation of the Anticipated Mezzanine Loan.

(d) Until such time, if ever, as the Anticipated Mezzanine Loan shall be consummated, (i) all references in this Agreement (other than the references made in this Section 9.7.1) and the other Loan Documents to the Mezzanine Loan, the Mezzanine Borrowers, the Mezzanine Lender, the Mezzanine Loan Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or any other terms related to any thereof, including the Mezzanine Cash Management Account, Mezzanine Debt, a Mezzanine Default, a Mezzanine Event of Default, the Mezzanine Loan Agreement, the Mezzanine Loan Documents, the Mezzanine Loan Outstanding Principal Balance, the Mezzanine Principal, and/or the Mezzanine Reserve Funds shall be deemed removed herefrom and therefrom and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be interpreted as though such references do not exist herein or therein, (ii) Article 11 of this Agreement shall be deemed omitted herefrom, (iii) any distributions or payments that are payable to Borrowers upon the condition that the Mezzanine Loan has been repaid in full, shall be paid to Borrowers, (iv) the calculations of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, the Underwritten Garage Debt Service Coverage Ratio, and the Underwritten Tower Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall assume no debt service is payable on account of the Mezzanine Loan, and (v) the application of payments of principal under Section 2.4.5 shall be made in the same fashion as if the Mezzanine Loan and the Mezzanine Debt had been paid in full, it being expressly acknowledged and agreed by Borrowers, however, that at all times from and after the Closing Date, whether or not an Anticipated Mezzanine Loan has been consummated, the provisions of Section 5.2.10(d)(C) hereof and Sections 5.2.10(h)(i) and (ii) hereof with respect to Mezzanine Borrowers shall continue to apply.

(e) Upon the consummation of the Anticipated Mezzanine Loan, this Agreement shall be amended to eliminate this Section 9.7.1 and the definitions set forth herein and, where appropriate, to (i) insert the appropriate amount of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan, (ii) insert appropriate dates for the Mezzanine Loan Documents, (iii) insert appropriate numeric values for the calculations of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, the Underwritten Garage Debt Service Coverage Ratio, and the Underwritten Tower Debt Service Coverage Ratio, (iv) insert revised definitions of the Mezzanine Loan and the Intercreditor Agreement, making reference to

(f) Borrowers acknowledge that, upon consummation, Lender intends to sell the Mezzanine Loan, which sale may occur coincident with the closing of the Mezzanine Loan or at some time thereafter. In connection with any such sale of the Mezzanine Loan, Borrowers and Operating Partnership agree that they shall, and Operating Partnership shall cause Mezzanine Borrowers to, cooperate with all reasonable requests of the purchaser, including agreeing to such amendments to the Mezzanine Loan Documents as such purchaser shall request, so long as such amendments do not increase in more than a de minimis amount the obligations of Mezzanine Borrowers under the Mezzanine Loan Documents or reduce in more than a de minimis amount the rights of Mezzanine Borrowers under the Mezzanine Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Borrowers nor Mezzanine Borrowers shall have any obligation to agree to any amendment to the Mezzanine Loan Documents that materially changes the economic obligations of the Mezzanine Borrowers under the Mezzanine Loan Documents from those existing before any such amendment.

(g) Borrowers’ and Operating Partnership’s failure, within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s written request, to execute and/or deliver, or Operating Partnership’s failure to cause Mezzanine Borrowers to execute and/or deliver, the Proposed Mezzanine Loan Documents and/or any other agreement, document, opinion, letter or other item contemplated by this Section 9.7.1 or otherwise reasonably requested by Lender in connection with the consummation of an Anticipated Mezzanine Loan, shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

9.7.2 Future Restructuring. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.7.1 hereof and in addition thereto, at any time prior to the Securitization of the entire Loan, Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights hereunder, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right at any time to require Borrowers to restructure the Loan into multiple notes (which may include component notes and/or senior and junior notes) and/or to create participation interests in the Loan, which restructuring may include reallocation of principal amounts of the Loan or the restructuring of a portion of the Loan to any Mezzanine Loan or one or more additional mezzanine loans (each, a “New Mezzanine Loan”) to the owners of the direct and/or indirect equity interests in Borrowers, secured by a pledge of such interests, and/or the reallocation of a portion of the Mezzanine Loan to the Loan and/or any New Mezzanine Loan or the establishment of different interest rates, floor interest rates and debt service payments for the Loan, the Mezzanine Loan and any New Mezzanine Loan and the payment of the Loan, the Mezzanine Loan and any New Mezzanine Loan in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided that (i) the total amounts of the Loan, the Mezzanine Loan and all New Mezzanine Loans shall equal the amount of the Loan and the Mezzanine

107

Loan, and (iii) except in the case of an Event of Default under, or a prepayment of, the Loan, the Mezzanine Loan and/or any New Mezzanine Loan, the debt service payments on the Loan, the Mezzanine Loan and all New Mezzanine Loans shall equal the debt service payments which would have been payable under the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan had the restructuring not occurred. Borrowers shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to restructure the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan and create any New Mezzanine Loan, if applicable, and shall, upon ten (10) Business Days written notice from Lender, which notice shall include the forms of documents for which Lender is requesting execution and delivery, (A) execute and deliver such documents or cause each Mezzanine Borrower to execute such documents, including in the case of any New Mezzanine Loan, a mezzanine note, a mezzanine loan agreement, a pledge and security agreement, and a mezzanine deposit account agreement, (B) cause Borrowers’ counsel to deliver such legal opinions, and (C) create such bankruptcy remote borrower under each New Mezzanine Loan as, in each of the case of clauses (A), (B) and (C) above, shall be reasonably required by Lender or required by any Rating Agency in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, including the severance of this Agreement, the Mortgage and other Loan Documents if requested. Borrowers’ failure to comply with its obligation under this Section 9.7 within ten (10) Business Days after Borrowers’ receipt of notice of such failure shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement.

9.7.3 Multiple Notes.

(a) Pursuant to Section 9.1(a) hereof, Lender and Borrowers anticipate that subsequent to the Closing Date Lender may restructure the Loan into Multiple Notes by obtaining Borrowers’ execution of such Multiple Notes and the execution of an amendment to this Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement Amendment”). Such Multiple Notes: (i) shall be on substantially the same terms as the Notes executed on the Closing Date, as governed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except that, without limitation, pursuant to such Loan Agreement Amendment, the non-default interest rate applicable to one or more of the Multiple Notes may be greater than the Interest Rate, so long as the weighted non-default interest rate of all the Multiple Notes shall, at the time of the creation of such Multiple Notes, equal the Interest Rate; (ii) shall have a maturity date of not earlier than the Maturity Date for the Loan; (iii) shall be made utilizing a form of Note identical, except as to amount, to the Notes, together with such other ancillary documents and deliveries as are customary or necessary in Lender’s reasonable judgment (including an enforceability opinion from Borrowers’ counsel with respect to the Loan Agreement Amendment) and, to the extent applicable, are any in substantially the same form as were executed and delivered in connection with the Loan or are otherwise reasonably acceptable to Borrowers, and (iv) the Loan Agreement Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby shall not, in any material respect, increase the economic obligations of Borrowers under the Loan Documents. From and after the execution, if ever, of the Multiple Notes, Lender shall cancel the original Notes and promptly return it to Borrowers.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.1(a) hereof to the contrary, and without limiting the provisions of this Section 9.7.3, Borrowers covenant and agree that after the Closing Date and prior to a Securitization, Lender shall have the right to establish different interest rates and to reallocate the amortization and principal balances of each of the Multiple Notes and to require the payment of the Multiple Notes in such order of priority as may be

108

designated by Lender; provided, however, that the weighted average interest rate of the Multiple Notes following any such reallocation or modification shall not be changed from the weighted average interest rate in effect immediately preceding such reallocation or modification. Borrowers further agree and acknowledge that Lender has expressly reserved the right to repay the principal amount of the Multiple Notes in a disproportionate manner reflecting the relative priority, if any, of such Multiple Notes on account of prepayments of principal (i) occurring upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or (ii) made from Net Proceeds, or (iii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, made from Rents and/or Vacant Space Rent, all as contemplated under Section 2.4.3 hereof; and as a result thereof the weighted average interest rate of the Loan may be changed.

(c) Borrowers shall expeditiously and in good faith negotiate, execute and/or deliver, any material agreement, document, title insurance coverage, opinion letter or other item contemplated by this Section 9.7.3, or otherwise reasonably requested by Lender in connection with the consummation of the Multiple Notes.

(d) Borrowers acknowledge that, upon execution, Lender intends to sell one or more of the Multiple Notes, which sale may occur coincident with the execution of the Multiple Notes or at some time thereafter. In connection with any such sale of one or more of the Multiple Notes, each Borrower agrees that it shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of the purchaser, including agreeing to such amendments to the Loan Documents as such purchaser shall request, so long as such amendments do not increase in more than a de minimis amount the obligations of Borrowers under the Loan Documents or reduce in more than a de minimis amount the rights of Borrowers under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers shall not have any obligation to agree to any amendment to the Multiple Notes that changes the overall economic terms of the Loan from those existing before any such amendment.

(e) Borrowers’ failure, within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s request, to execute and/or deliver the Multiple Notes and/or any other agreement, document, opinion, letter or other item contemplated by this Section 9.7.3 or otherwise reasonably requested by Lender in connection with the consummation of the Multiple Notes, shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

9.7.4 Costs and Expenses. Except as may be required in connection with a Securitization pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any such restructuring as set forth in this Section 9.7, but Borrowers shall be responsible for their own legal fees and other associated expenses.

116
