hereinafter set forth, to make the Loan in one or more Advances on a
revolving credit basis, to Borrower, up to the amount of the Commitment,
provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein or in any other Loan Document, in no event will Lender be obligated to
re-advance more than $10,000,000 of Loan proceeds such that the aggregate
principal amount of all Advances made hereunder (including such re-advances)
shall in no event exceed $100,000,000 over the term of this Agreement.
Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that on the Closing Date the
Initial Advance in the aggregate principal amount of $2,075,000 will be made
to Borrower subject to the satisfaction of all applicable terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth.
(b) Each Advance shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than
One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), and in integral multiples of Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00); provided, however, that the aggregate amount
of Advances at any time outstanding (after giving effect to such Advance)
shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the amount of the Commitment or (y) 75% of
the Collateral Value.
(c) In connection with each Advance to be made hereunder:
(i) Borrower shall deliver a Preliminary Borrowing Request to
Lender, accompanied by each of the instruments, documents and agreements set
forth on Schedule I, together with such other information as Lender may
reasonably request, and with respect to items 9 through 13 of said Schedule
I, performed by Persons previously approved by Lender, as set forth on
Schedule II hereof, and engaged by Lender at the sole cost and expense of
Borrower, except to the extent that any such instrument, document or
agreement has been previously delivered to Lender;
(ii) Lender shall approve, which approval may be granted or
denied in Lender's sole and absolute discretion, or disapprove any such
Preliminary Borrowing Request received by Lender from Borrower within ten
(10) Business Days of the receipt thereof; and
(iii) in the event that Lender approves the Advance for
which the Preliminary Borrowing Request relates, such Advance shall be made
subject to the terms and conditions hereof, including, without limitation,
Borrower delivering a Borrowing Request not less than three (3) Business Days
prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, which Borrowing Request shall be
irrevocable and must be received by Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York

terms and conditions hereof, Lender shall make the amount of funds evidencing
the approved Advance available by wire transfer in accordance with the

payments of the principal of such Advances to Lender shall be recorded by
Lender on the schedule attached to the Note and by specific reference made a
part thereof. The amounts of principal indicated by said schedule as
outstanding or accrued and unpaid, as the case may be, shall constitute
rebuttable presumptive evidence of the principal outstanding and the accrued
and unpaid interest on the Loan; provided, that any failure or error on the
part of Lender in recording any Advance on such schedule shall not limit the
obligation of Borrower to pay all principal of and interest accruing on the
Loan.
Section 3.01 Fees.
(a) Borrower has previously paid to Lender a non-refundable
arrangement fee in the amount of $50,000.00, which fee shall be credited
towards the initial payment due under Section 3.01(b). below.
(b) On each Borrowing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender a loan
fee (the "Loan Fee") equal to (i) the aggregate principal amount of such
Advance to be made on such Borrowing Date, multiplied by (ii) 0.75%.
(c) In the event that on the first anniversary of the date of this
Agreement the aggregate principal amount of Advances hereunder shall be less
than $30,000,000, then, in such event, Borrower shall have the option to
either (i) terminate the Commitment whereupon (x) Lender shall have no
further obligation to make any Advances hereunder and (y) all outstanding
amounts under the Loan shall be due and payable within thirty (30 ) days
following such election or (ii) throughout the balance of the Commitment
Period, pay to Lender an additional fee (the "First Facility Fee") on a
monthly basis, in the same manner and times as interest is payable under the
Note, commencing with the first interest payment following the first
anniversary of this Agreement, in an amount equal to the product of (x) .25%
per annum multiplied by (y) the excess of $90,000,000 over the aggregate
outstanding principal balance of the Loan as of the date of determination,
provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of
Advances hereunder exceeds $45,000,000 as of the eighteen month anniversary
of the date of this Agreement, Borrower shall no longer be obligated to pay
the First Facility Fee commencing with the next monthly payment.
(d) In the event that on the first anniversary of the date of this
Agreement the aggregate principal amount of Advances hereunder was equal to
or in excess of $30,000,000 but on the eighteen month anniversary of the date
of this Agreement the aggregate principal amount of Advances hereunder shall
be less than $45,000,000, then, in such event, Borrower shall have the option
to either (i) terminate the Commitment whereupon (x) Lender shall have no
further obligation to make any Advances hereunder and (y) all outstanding
amounts under the Loan shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days of
such election or (ii) throughout the balance of the Commitment Period, pay
to Lender an additional fee (the "Second Facility Fee") on a monthly basis,
in the same manner and times as interest is payable under the Note,
commencing with the first interest payment following the eighteen month
anniversary of this Agreement, in an amount equal to the product of (x) .25%
per annum multiplied by (y) the excess of $90,000,000 over the aggregate
outstanding principal balance of the Loan as of the date of determination.
(e) In the event that Borrower is obligated to elect an option
under either paragraph (c) or (d) above, Borrower shall notify Lender of its
election within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of notice from
Lender that an election is required. In the event that Lender does not
receive Borrower's election in a timely manner, Borrower shall be deemed to
have elected to pay the First Facility Fee or the Second Facility Fee, as the
case may be.
(f) All fees paid under this Section 3.01 shall be non-refundable.
Each payment thereof and any other charges or amounts payable under this
Agreement shall be paid by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.2 of the

existence of no other financing statements (other than those to be released
concurrently with the subject Advance), tax liens, judgments, building

applicable zoning, subdivision, environmental and other laws, orders, rules,
regulations and requirements relating to the use and occupancy of the
Subject Properties and (B) all building permits issued in respect of the
Subject Properties and (if available) a copy of all certificates of occupancy

(xi) Contract of Sale. Copies of the contracts of sale

provide a title update or title report for the applicable Subject Properties
before the date of each Borrowing reflecting that there are no mechanics'
liens or other liens or encumbrances upon the applicable Subject Properties
which have not been approved by Lender. In the event such title update or
title report discloses mechanics' liens or other liens or encumbrances not
approved by Lender, and, without waiving any of Lender's rights hereunder or
under any other Loan Documents on account of the existence of such liens or
other encumbrances, the obligation of Lender to make any Advance to Borrower
is subject to the condition that such mechanics' liens or other liens or
encumbrances be cured, deleted of record or remedied to Lender's reasonable

the appropriate governmental offices.
(xiv) Fees and Expenses. Evidence (including, without
limitation, payment instructions given by Borrower) that all fees and
expenses payable to Lender, including, without limitation, the fees and
expenses referred to in Section 3.01 and Section 8.05 hereof, to the extent
then due and payable, have been paid in full.
(xv) Other Documents. Such other documents relating to
the transactions contemplated hereby as Lender may reasonably request,
including, without limitation, an assignment of leases and rents in
substantially the form of Exhibit C attached hereto and a reaffirmation of
guaranty executed by the Guarantor in substantially the form of Exhibit D
attached hereto.
(c) Loan Documents. On or before the date of each Borrowing, the
Mortgages shall constitute valid first mortgage liens on the fee simple title
to, or, if applicable, on the relevant Borrower's interest as a tenant under
a ground lease of, the Subject Properties and which shall secure all of the
Debt, subject only to such defects, Liens, encumbrances, assessments,
security interests, restrictions, easements and other title exceptions as
shall be acceptable to Lender or permitted by the express terms of the
relevant Mortgage; and UCC-1 financing statements covering fixtures owned by
the relevant Borrower and affixed to, or used in connection with each such
property, in each case appropriately completed and duly executed and
delivered to Lender for filing in the appropriate county and State offices
shall have been filed to perfect Lender's Lien in the collateral described
therein. Each of the Mortgages shall be cross-collateralized and cross-
defaulted with the other Mortgages. In the event that the State in which the
Subject Property is located does not impose a mortgage recording tax, then
the Mortgage encumbering such Subject Property will be in the face amount of
$90,000,000. In the event, however, that any such State imposes a mortgage
recording tax, the face amount of the applicable Mortgage shall be limited to
100% of the appraised value of the Subject Property as determined by Lender.
(d) Default. No Event of Default or Default shall have occurred
and be continuing and no Default will occur as the result of the consummation
of any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.
(e) Representations. The representations and warranties of
Borrower and Guarantor included and incorporated by reference in this
Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall be true, correct and
complete on and as of the date of such Borrowing (or, for purposes of Section
4.01(c), on and as of the Closing Date) with the same force and effect as if
made on and as of such date. On the date of funding of each subsequent
Advance, the Borrower shall execute a certification to Lender stating that
all representations and warranties made by the Borrower in this Agreement
remain true and correct as they relate to the Borrower and the Subject
Properties which were the subject of prior Advances and are true and correct
with respect to the applicable new Subject Property.
(f) Material Adverse Effect. Since the date of the most recent
financial statements of Borrower or Guarantor delivered to Lender, nothing
shall have occurred which would or could have a Material Adverse Effect on
Borrower or Guarantor.
(g) Recording Taxes. Borrower shall have paid all mortgage
recording taxes payable (if any) in each jurisdiction in which the applicable
Subject Property is located and shall have delivered to Lender any and all
supplemental or additional mortgages, in form and substance satisfactory to
Lender, as may be required by Lender. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan
Document, Borrower acknowledges and agree that to the extent there is a
payment of principal of the Loan which results in the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of the Loan being less than the aggregate maximum principal
amount of the Loan secured by any Jurisdictional Capped Mortgage(s) (whether
or not such aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loan was originally
less than the aggregate maximum principal amount of the Loan secured by such
Jurisdictional Capped Mortgage(s) prior to such payment), then (A) Borrower
may thereafter be required to pay additional mortgage recording taxes in
connection with any future Borrowing pursuant to this Agreement so that the
Jurisdictional Capped Mortgages in existence at or prior to such Borrowing
will secure, in accordance with applicable law, the amount of such Borrowing
up to the aggregate maximum original principal amount secured by such
Jurisdictional Capped Mortgage(s), and (B) if and to the extent that Lender
determines in good faith that any such additional mortgage recording taxes
are so due and payable in connection with any such future Borrowing and
unless Borrower shall have presented to Lender evidence, satisfactory to
Lender, that any such additional mortgage recording taxes are not so due and
payable, Borrower shall pay such additional mortgage recording taxes to the
appropriate governmental taxing authorities, and shall duly execute and
deliver to Lender any and all supplemental or additional mortgages and
consolidation agreements, as may be required by Lender in connection
therewith. As used herein, "Jurisdictional Capped Mortgages" shall
collectively mean, for each State, all of the Mortgage(s) now or hereafter
covering Subject Properties located in such State which secure a maximum
original principal amount of indebtedness which is less than the Commitment,
whether for the purpose of limiting the debt secured by such Mortgages and
any mortgage recording taxes payable in connection therewith or otherwise
with approval of Lender; and the "aggregate maximum principal amount of the
Loan secured by any such Jurisdictional Capped Mortgage(s)" shall mean, at
any time, the aggregate maximum original principal amount of indebtedness
secured by all of the Mortgages covering Subject Properties in such State at
such time, as specified in such Mortgages.
(h) Loan Amount. The aggregate amount of all Advances then
outstanding, prior to and after giving effect to the making of the Advance on
the Borrowing Date, does not exceed the lesser of (i) the amount of the
Commitment or (ii) 75% of the Collateral Value.
Each Borrowing Request hereunder shall be deemed to constitute a
certification by Borrower to the effect set forth in the above clauses of
this Section 4.02 (as of the date of such notice and, unless Borrower
otherwise notifies Lender prior to the date of such Borrowing, as of the date
of such Borrowing, both immediately prior to and after giving effect to such
Borrowing and the application of proceeds therefrom).
ARTICLE V COLLATERAL VALUE AND RELEASES OF COLLATERAL
Section 5.01 Determinations of Collateral Value by Lender. Lender
shall have the right at any time to recalculate the Collateral Value. In the
event that Lender determines at any time, whether pursuant to this Section
5.01 or 5.02 below, that the ratio of the aggregate outstanding principal
balances of the Loan to the then current Collateral Value (the "LTV Ratio")
exceeds seventy-five percent (75%), Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days
following Lender's demand therefor, either (a) pay down the principal balance
of the Loan in an amount necessary to reduce the LTV Ratio to seventy-five
percent (75%) or (b) deliver to Lender such additional collateral in form,
type and amount satisfactory to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion,
which additional collateral shall be subject to a first lien security
interest in favor of Lender, such that the LTV Ratio, after giving effect to
Lender's determination of the value of such collateral, is reduced to
seventy-five percent (75%). In the event that Borrower elects to deliver
additional collateral, Borrower shall also deliver such additional materials
and assurances with respect thereto as Lender may request based upon the
nature of the collateral. Upon Lender's receipt of a first lien security
interest in such additional approved collateral, such additional collateral
shall, so long as Lender continues to hold a first lien security interest
therein, be included in all future calculations of Collateral Value.
Section 5.02 Recalculations of Collateral Value at Borrower's
Request. (a) Borrower shall have the right to request that Lender
recalculate the Collateral Value once in each calendar quarter during the
term of this Agreement. In the event the recalculated Collateral Value
results in an LTV Ratio in excess of seventy-five percent (75%), Borrower
shall prepay the Loan or deliver additional collateral to Lender in
accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 5.01 above. In the
event that the recalculated Collateral Value results in an LTV Ratio of less
than seventy-five percent (75%), Borrower shall have the right, subject to
the satisfaction of all applicable conditions set forth herein, to receive
additional Advances hereunder until the LTV Ratio reaches seventy-five
percent (75%), but in no event shall the aggregate outstanding balance at any
time exceed $90,000,000.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article
or Article IV above, subject to the satisfaction of all applicable conditions
thereto set forth in Article IV above as modified below, in the event
Borrower elects and is entitled to receive an Advance following the
recalculation of the Collateral Value without delivering additional
Collateral to Lender:
(i) In lieu of new Loan Documents as contemplated by Section
4.02(c) above, Lender shall have received, with respect to those Subject
Properties for which the Mortgage amount is limited to 100% of the appraised
value thereof, amendments to or supplements of such Mortgages (and the
related Assignments), satisfactory in form and substance to Lender, which the
Lender reasonably determines to be necessary to maintain the same level of
security on a cross- collateralized basis with respect to the applicable
Subject Properties as existed immediately prior to such Advance; and
(ii) In lieu of a new Title Policy, Lender shall have received such
endorsements to the Title Policies for all Subject Properties, satisfactory
in form and substance to Lender, increasing the amount of insurance for each
Subject Property by (x) the applicable amount of the increase to or
supplement of the applicable original Mortgage as contemplated in clause (i)
above with respect to Subject Properties with respect to which the amount of
the Mortgage was originally 100% of the appraised value and (y) with respect
to all other Subject Properties, an amount reasonably allocated thereto by
Lender, and showing said Advance as having the same priority as the original
Advance made with respect to the applicable Subject Properties without
further exception.
Section 5.03 Release of Collateral. Provided there exists no Default
or Event of Default hereunder (other than a Default or Event of Default
which is non-monetary in nature and relates only to the property encumbered
by the Mortgage to be released), Lender shall fully release any Mortgage upon
the request of the Borrower (but Lender shall not partially release any
Mortgage) provided that after giving effect to such reconveyance, (a) the LTV
Ratio does not exceed seventy-five percent (75%) and (b) there shall exist no
Default or Event of Default. As a condition to any such release, Borrower
shall remit to Lender the release price calculated by Lender as necessary to
achieve a seventy-five percent (75%) LTV Ratio after giving effect to the
release of the Mortgage. As additional conditions to any such release,
Borrower shall pay all fees, costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, incurred by Lender in connection with such
release. In connection with a release of a particular Mortgage, Lender shall
also, at Borrower's expense, release the related Assignment of Rents and UCC
financing statements relating to that particular Mortgage.
Section 5.04 Calculations of Collateral Value and LTV Ratio. All
calculations of Collateral Value and LTV Ratio shall be made by Lender in
accordance with its customary underwriting standards consistently applied and
shall be deemed binding and conclusive upon Borrower.
ARTICLE VI. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

other agency in connection with or as a condition to the execution, delivery
or performance of this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents which

bound by any agreements or instruments which, individually or in the
aggregate, are reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither
Borrower nor, if applicable, any General Partner, is in violation of its
organizational documents or other restriction or any agreement or instrument
by which it is bound, or any judgment, decree, writ, injunction, order or
award of any arbitrator, court or Governmental Authority, or any Legal
Requirement, in each case, applicable to Borrower or the Subject Property,
except for such violations that would not, individually or in the aggregate,
have a Material Adverse Effect.
(g) Maintenance of Existence. Borrower and, if applicable, each
General Partner at all times since their formation have been duly formed and
existing and shall preserve and keep in full force and effect their existence
as a Single Purpose Entity in accordance with the requirements of the
Mortgages.

nongovernmental Persons, in each case, which are required to be obtained or
made by Borrower or, if applicable, the General Partner, in connection with
the execution and delivery of, and the performance by Borrower of its
obligations under, the Loan Documents.
(j) Investment Company Act Status. Borrower is not an "investment
company," or a company "controlled" by an "investment company," as such terms
are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(k) Compliance with Law. Borrower is and shall remain in
compliance in all material respects with all Legal Requirements to which it
is subject, including, without limitation, all Environmental Statutes, the
Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, the Americans with Disabilities
Act and ERISA.
(l) Financial Information. The financial statements of Borrower
and the General Partner that have been delivered by or on behalf of Borrower
or the General Partner to Lender (i) are true, complete and correct in all
material respects, (ii) fairly present the financial condition of the
Borrower or the General Partner, as the case may be, as of the end of the
period indicated and the results of operations for the periods indicated and
(iii) have been prepared on a cash basis in accordance with sound accounting
principles consistently applied (or such other accounting basis as is
acceptable to Lender) throughout the periods covered. As of the date hereof,
neither Borrower nor, if applicable, any General Partner, has any contingent
liability, liability for taxes or other unusual or forward commitment not
reflected in such financial statements delivered to Lender; since the date of
the last financial statements delivered by Borrower to Lender except as
otherwise disclosed in such financial statements or notes thereto, there has
been no change in the assets, liabilities or financial position of Borrower
nor, if applicable, any General Partner, or in the results of operations of
Borrower which would have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Borrower nor, if
applicable, any General Partner, has incurred any obligation or liability,
contingent or otherwise not reflected in such financial statements which
would have a Material Adverse Effect.
(m) Transaction Brokerage Fees. Borrower has not dealt with any
financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or
finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
except for Lender and its Affiliates. All brokerage fees, commissions and
other expenses payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by
the Loan Documents have been paid in full contemporaneously with the
execution of the Loan Documents and the funding of the Initial Advance.
Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against
any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way
relating to or arising from (i) a claim by any Person that such Person acted
on behalf of Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated herein
or (ii) any breach of the foregoing representation. The provisions of this
subsection shall survive the repayment of the Debt.
(n) Federal Reserve Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any
Advance will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any "margin
stock" within the meaning of Regulations G, T, U or X of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which would
be inconsistent with such Regulations G, T, U or X or any other Regulations
of such Board of Governors, or for any purposes prohibited by Legal
Requirements or by the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents.
(o) Pending Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings
pending or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or
affecting Borrower in any court or before any Governmental Authority which if
adversely determined either individually or collectively has or is reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(p) Solvency; No Bankruptcy. Each of Borrower and, if applicable,
the General Partner, (i) is and has at all times been Solvent and will remain
Solvent immediately upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
the Loan Documents and (ii) is free from bankruptcy, reorganization or
arrangement proceedings or a general assignment for the benefit of creditors
and is not contemplating the filing of a petition under any state or federal
bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of
such Person's assets or property and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person
contemplating the filing of any such petition against it or, if applicable,
the General Partner. None of the transactions contemplated hereby will be or
have been made with an intent to hinder, delay or defraud any present or
future creditors of Borrower and Borrower has received reasonably equivalent
value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents. Borrower's
assets do not, and immediately upon consummation of the transaction
contemplated in the Loan Documents will not, constitute unreasonably small
capital to carry out its business as presently conducted or as proposed to be
conducted. Borrower does not intend to, nor believe that it will, incur debts
and liabilities beyond its ability to pay such debts as they may mature.
(q) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loan shall be applied by
Borrower to (i) satisfy certain mortgage loans presently encumbering all or a
part of the applicable Subject Property or to be purchased with such
proceeds, (ii) fund any reserve required by Lender in connection with a
particular Advance, (iii) purchase the Subject Property, (iv) pay certain
transaction costs incurred by Borrower in connection with the Loan and (v)
for any other business purposes approved by Lender. No portion of the
proceeds of the Loan will be used for family, personal, agricultural or
household use.
(r) Tax Filings. Borrower and, if applicable, each General
Partner, have filed all federal, state and local tax returns required to be
filed and have paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all
federal, state and local taxes, charges and assessments payable by Borrower
and, if applicable, the General Partners. Borrower and, if applicable, the
General Partners, believe that their respective tax returns properly reflect
the income and taxes of Borrower and said General Partner, if any, for the
periods covered thereby, subject only to reasonable adjustments required by
the Internal Revenue Service or other applicable tax authority upon audit.
(s) Not Foreign Person. Borrower is not a "foreign person" within
the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the Code.
(t) ERISA.
(i) The assets of Borrower and Guarantor are not and will not
become treated as "plan assets", whether by operation of law or under
regulations promulgated under ERISA. Each Plan and Welfare Plan, and, to the
knowledge of Borrower, each Multiemployer Plan, is in compliance in all
material respects with, and has been administered in all material respects in
compliance with, its terms and the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code
and any other applicable Legal Requirement, and no event or condition has
occurred and is continuing as to which Borrower would be under an obligation
to furnish a report to Lender under clause (ii)(A) of this subsection. Other
than an application for a favorable determination letter with respect to a
Plan, there are no pending issues or claims before the Internal Revenue
Service, the United States Department of Labor or any court of competent
jurisdiction related to any Plan or Welfare Plan under which Borrower,
Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate, directly or indirectly (through an
indemnification agreement or otherwise), could be subject to any material
risk of liability under Section 409 or 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the
Code. No Welfare Plan provides or will provide benefits, including, without
limitation, death or medical benefits (whether or not insured) with respect
to any current or former employee of Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA
Affiliate beyond his or her retirement or other termination of service other
than (A) coverage mandated by applicable law, (B) death or disability
benefits that have been fully provided for by fully paid up insurance or (C)
severance benefits.
(ii) Borrower will furnish to Lender as soon as possible,
and in any event within ten (10) days after Borrower knows or has reason to
believe that any of the events or conditions specified below with respect to
any Plan, Welfare Plan or Multiemployer Plan has occurred or exists, an
Officer's Certificate setting forth details respecting such event or
condition and the action, if any, that Borrower or its ERISA Affiliate
proposes to take with respect thereto (and a copy of any report or notice
required to be filed with or given to PBGC (or any other relevant
Governmental Authority) by Borrower or an ERISA Affiliate with respect to
such event or condition, if such report or notice is required to be filed
with the PBGC or any other relevant Governmental Authority:
(A) any reportable event, as defined in Section 4043(b)
of ERISA and the regulations issued thereunder, with respect
to a Plan, as to which PBGC has not by regulation waived the
requirement of Section 4043(a) of ERISA that it be notified
within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of such event
(provided that a failure to meet the minimum funding standard
of Section 412 of the Code of Section 302 of ERISA, including,
without limitation, the failure to make on or before its due
date a required installment under Section 412(m) of the Code
of Section 302(e) of ERISA, shall be a reportable event
regardless of the issuance of any waivers in accordance with
Section 412(d) of the Code), and any request for a waiver
under Section 412(d) of the Code for any Plan;
(B) the distribution under Section 4041 of ERISA of a
notice of intent to terminate any Plan or any action taken by
Borrower or an ERISA Affiliate to terminate any Plan;
(C) the institution by PBGC of proceedings under Section
4042 of ERISA for the termination of, or the appointment of a
trustee to administer, any Plan, or the receipt by Borrower or
any ERISA Affiliate of a notice from a Multiemployer Plan that
such action has been taken by PBGC with respect to such
Multiemployer Plan;
(D) the complete or partial withdrawal from a
Multiemployer Plan by Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate that
results in liability under Section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA
(including the obligation to satisfy secondary liability as a
result of a purchaser default) or the receipt by Borrower or
any ERISA Affiliate of notice from a Multiemployer Plan that
it is in reorganization or insolvency pursuant to Section 4241
or 4245 of ERISA or that it intends to terminate or has
terminated under Section 4041A of ERISA;
(E) the institution of a proceeding by a fiduciary of
any Multiemployer Plan against Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate
to enforce Section 515 of ERISA, which proceeding is not
dismissed within thirty (30) days;
(F) the adoption of an amendment to any Plan that,
pursuant to Section 401(a)(29) of the Code or Section 307 of
ERISA, would result in the loss of tax-exempt status of the
trust of which such Plan is a part if Borrower or an ERISA
Affiliate fails to timely provide security to the Plan in
accordance with the provisions of said Sections; or
(G) the imposition of a lien or a security interest in
connection with a Plan.
(iii) Borrower shall not knowingly engage in or permit any
transaction in connection with which Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA
Affiliate could be subject to either a civil penalty or tax assessed pursuant
to Section 502(i) or 502(1) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, permit any
Welfare Plan to provide benefits, including without limitation, medical
benefits (whether or not insured), with respect to any current or former
employee of Borrower, Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate beyond his or her
retirement or other termination of service other than (A) coverage mandated
by applicable law, (B) death or disability benefits that have been fully
provided for by paid up insurance or otherwise or (C) severance benefits,
permit the assets of Borrower or Guarantor to become "plan assets", whether
by operation of law or under regulations promulgated under ERISA or adopt,
amend (except as may be required by applicable law) or increase the amount of
any benefit or amount payable under, or permit any ERISA Affiliate to adopt,
amend (except as may be required by applicable law) or increase the amount of
any benefit or amount payable under, any employee benefit plan (including,
without limitation, any employee welfare benefit plan) or other plan, policy
or arrangement, except for normal increases in the ordinary course of
business consistent with past practice that, in the aggregate, do not result
in a material increase in benefits expense to Borrower, Guarantor or any
ERISA Affiliate.
(u) Labor Matters. Borrower is not a party to any collective
bargaining agreements.
Section 6.02 Financial Reports.
(a) Borrower will keep and maintain or will cause to be kept and
maintained on a Fiscal Year basis, on a cash basis in accordance with sound
accounting principles consistently applied (or such other accounting basis
acceptable to Lender), proper and accurate books, records and accounts
reflecting all of the financial affairs of Borrower. Lender shall have the
right from time to time at all times during normal business hours upon
reasonable notice to examine such books, records and accounts at the office
of Borrower or other Person maintaining such books, records and accounts and
to make such copies or extracts thereof as Lender shall desire. After the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay any costs and expenses
incurred by Lender to examine Borrower's accounting books and records, as
Lender shall determine to be necessary or appropriate in the protection of
Lender's interest.
(b) Borrower will furnish Lender annually, within one hundred
twenty (120) days following the end of each Fiscal Year of Borrower, with a
complete copy of Borrower's financial statement audited by a certified public
accountant acceptable to Lender and prepared on a cash basis in accordance
with sound accounting principles consistently applied (or such other
accounting basis acceptable to Lender) covering all of the financial affairs
of Borrower and containing a statement of revenues and expenses, a statement
of assets and liabilities and a statement of Borrower's equity. Together with
Borrower's annual financial statements, Borrower shall supplement the
combined financial statement with information on a property by-property basis
that was used in the preparation of the combined statement and shall furnish
to Lender an Officer's Certificate certifying as of the date thereof (i) that
the annual financial statements accurately represent the results of operation
and financial condition of Borrower (or, in the case of a combined financial
statement, the results of operation and financial condition of Borrower) all
in accordance with sound accounting principles consistently applied, and (ii)
whether to the best knowledge of the officer executing such certificate,
there exists an event or circumstance which constitutes, or which upon notice
or lapse of time or both would constitute, a Default under the Note or any
other Loan Document executed and delivered by Borrower, and if such event or
circumstance exists, the nature thereof, the period of time it has existed
and the action then being taken to remedy such event or circumstance.
(c) Borrower shall furnish to Lender, within twenty-five (25) days
following the end of each calendar quarter, income and expense statements and
an updated rent roll with respect to each of the Subject Properties, in each
case certified by Borrower to be true and correct.
(d) Borrower shall furnish Lender, within thirty (30) days after
Lender's request therefor, with such further detailed information with
respect to the financial affairs of Borrower as may be reasonably requested
by Lender.
Section 6.03 Litigation. Borrower will give prompt written notice to
Lender of any litigation or governmental proceedings pending or threatened
(in writing) against Borrower which might have a Material Adverse Effect.
ARTICLE VII. EVENTS OF DEFAULT
Section 7.01 Events of Default. If any Event of Default shall occur
and be continuing then, and in any such event, and in addition to any other
rights or remedies Lender may have hereunder, under any other Loan Documents,
including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 13.02 of the Mortgages, or
at law or equity, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in
Section 13.01(i) of any of the Mortgages, the Commitment hereunder shall
immediately terminate and the outstanding principal amount of the Note
together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts owing
under this Agreement and the Note shall immediately become due and payable,
and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, Lender may, by written
notice of default to Borrower, terminate the Commitment hereunder and/or
declare the outstanding principal amount of the Note, together with accrued
and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts owing under this Agreement
and the Note to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall
immediately become due and payable. Except as expressly provided above herein
or in any of the other Loan Documents, presentment, demand, protest and all
other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by Borrower.
ARTICLE VIII. MISCELLANEOUS
Section 8.01 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications
to any party hereunder or under the Note shall be given in the manner and to
the address of each party as set forth in Article XI of the Mortgages.
Section 8.02 Performance by Lender. Should Borrower fail to perform
any covenant, duty or agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions
of any of the Loan Documents to which it is party and, except in the case of
an emergency or any other event which could or would materially adversely
affect the collateral for the Loan (in which cases no notice shall be
required), such failure continues uncured for a period ten (10) days
following written notice to Borrower specifying such default, Lender may (but
shall be under no obligation to), at its option, perform, or attempt to
perform, such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of Borrower. In such
event, the appropriate entity shall, at the request of Lender, promptly pay
any amount expended by Lender in such performance or attempted performance to
Lender at the office of Lender designated for receipt of payments of
principal and interest on the Loan, together with interest thereon at the
Default Rate from the date of such expenditure by Lender until paid.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood that Lender does
not assume and shall never have, except by express written consent, any
liability or responsibility for the performance of any duties of Borrower
hereunder, or under or in connection with any of the other Loan Documents.
Section 8.03 No Oral Change. The terms of this Agreement, together
with the terms of the Note and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire
understanding and agreement of the parties hereto and supersede all prior
agreements, understandings and negotiations between Borrower and Lender with
respect to the Loan. This Agreement, and any provisions hereof, may not be
modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally
or by any act on the part of Borrower or Lender, but only by an agreement in
writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification,
amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
Section 8.04 No Waiver: Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on
the part of Lender in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and no course of dealing between
Borrower and Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single
or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or
thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein and in the other Loan
Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided
by law. The giving of notice to or demand on Borrower, which notice or demand
is not required hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, shall not
entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights, remedies, powers or
privileges of Lender in any circumstances not requiring notice or demand.
Section 8.05 Fees and Expenses. In addition to any other amounts
payable by the Borrower under the terms of any of the Loan Documents,
Borrower agrees to promptly pay or reimburse Lender for:
(a) all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, the
fees, which shall not exceed $50,000, and the reasonable disbursements of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Berlin, Chartered and any local counsel retained by Lender)
incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and

assignment and assumption agreement executed by such Assignee and Lender,
with (and subject to) the subscribed consent of Borrower, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld; provided that if an Assignee is an Affiliate of

obligations of a Bank with a Commitment as set forth in such instrument of
assumption, and Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a
corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be

at any time and from time to time designate a substitute authorized agent

hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise and not by way of
limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,

other kind to Borrower or any other Person, each of which is hereby expressly
waived by Borrower, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set-off and

extension of time for the payment or performance of any obligation with
respect to which the Default Rate may be invoked.

applicable, in each instance, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed. Lender shall be authorized to provide information relating to the
Loan and matters relating thereto to rating agencies, underwriters, potential

promptly, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days of Lender's request
(a) amend the Loan Documents with respect to the Loan (or the portions
thereof) which are to be included in the Securitization to extend the
maturity date thereof for a period to be determined by Lender in its sole
discretion which shall in no event be more than two (2) additional years, (b)
split the Note into two or more notes with principal balances aggregating not
more than $90,000,000, (c) amend any cross-default provisions and/or cross-
collateralization provisions in the Loan Documents so that the portions of

shall not be cross-defaulted or cross-collateralized with the portions
thereof which are to be included within such Securitization and (d) amend the
Loan Documents and enter into additional Loan Documents as may be reasonably
requested by Lender, provided, that no such amendments or additional
documentation shall materially and adversely affect Borrower.
