Partial Release After the First Open Defeasance Date and prior to the First Open Payment Date, and provided no Event of Default exists, Borrower may from time to time obtain a partial release (a “Partial Release”) from the lien of the Mortgage and the Loan Documents of up to two of the individual Mortgaged Properties listed on Schedule 2.17 hereto (each such individual Mortgaged Property to be released, a “Partial Release Property”), provided that all of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied with respect to any such Partial Release of any such Partial Release Property: (a) No Partial Release of a Partial Release Property will be permitted until after the First Open Defeasance Date or if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. No Partial Release of the Partial Release Property will be permitted on or after the First Open Payment Date. No more than two Partial Release Properties may be released during the term of the Loan. (b) No Partial Release of the Partial Release Parcel will be permitted unless Borrower establishes to Lender’s satisfaction that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the remainder of the Mortgaged Property (i.e., exclusive of any income from the Partial Release Property) is and shall continue to be equal to or greater than the greater of (i) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Mortgaged Property calculated immediately prior to the Partial Release (i.e., inclusive of the income from the Partial Release Property), and (ii) 1.30:1.00. If the foregoing condition would not be satisfied by defeasance of the Partial Defeasance Amount indicated in subparagraph (e) below, Borrower may by written notice to Lender given not less than ten (10) days prior to the Partial Defeasance increase the Partial Defeasance Amount to an amount which would result in the foregoing condition being satisfied upon completion of the Partial Defeasance of such larger Partial Defeasance Amount. No Partial Defeasance, nor any increase in any Partial Defeasance Amount under this paragraph (b) or paragraphs (c) below, shall affect the allocated loan amounts for the remaining Mortgaged Property as set forth on Schedule 2.17. (c) No Partial Release of the Partial Release Parcel will be permitted unless Borrower establishes to Lender’s satisfaction that the value of the remainder of the Mortgaged Property (as determined by then-current Appraisals prepared by Appraisers approved by Lender, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by Borrower) is sufficient to satisfy a loan-to-value ratio (based on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to the Partial Release, less the allocated loan amount for the Partial Release Property) which is the lesser of (i) 75% and (ii) the loan-to-value ratio for the Mortgaged Property (inclusive of the Partial Release Property, and based on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to the Partial Release) calculated immediately prior to the Partial Release. If the foregoing condition would not be satisfied by defeasance of the Partial Defeasance Amount indicated in subparagraph (e) below, Borrower may by written notice to Lender given not less than ten (10) days prior to the Partial Defeasance increase the Partial Defeasance Amount to an amount which would result in the foregoing condition being satisfied upon completion of the Partial Defeasance of such larger Partial Defeasance Amount. (d) The Partial Release shall be allowed only in connection with a bona fide all-cash sale of the Partial Release Parcel to an unaffiliated third party on arms-length terms and conditions, and upon closing of such sale (and thereafter) shall not be owned, purchased or acquired by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower. (e) Borrower will on the date of the Partial Release (the “Partial Release Date”) complete a Partial Defeasance, pursuant to Section 2.7 hereof, of a portion of the Loan (the “Partial Defeasance Amount” for such Partial Release Property) equal to 125% of the allocated loan amount for the Partial Release Property set forth on Schedule 2.17 hereto; provided, that if Borrower elects in connection with a Partial Defeasance of a Partial Release Property to increase the Partial Defeasance Amount for such Partial Release Property pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (b) and/or (c) above, the Partial Defeasance Amount for such Partial Release Property shall be such higher amount for purposes of such Partial Defeasance. (f) Borrower will execute (and Guarantor will consent in writing thereto and reaffirm their obligations under the Loan Documents to which they are a party notwithstanding the Partial Release) and deliver all such amendments to the Loan Documents and other instruments or documents as may be required by Lender (using commercial standards customarily applied with respect to mortgage loans such as the Loan) in order to continue to fully protect Lender’s lien and security interest in the remainder of the Mortgaged Property. (g) Borrower will cause the Master Homesite Lease(s) to be amended to exclude the Partial Release Property pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to Lender. (h) Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, shall obtain endorsements to Lender’s loan policy of title insurance satisfactory in form and content to Lender, which endorsements will (a) affirmatively evidence the continued validity of Lender’s first lien position created by the Loan Documents through the date of recordation of the partial release of the Partial Release Property, and (b) insure that the lien created by the Loan Documents remains a valid first lien on the remainder of the Mortgaged Property. (i) Borrower shall pay for the costs of preparing and recording partial releases, UCC-3 releases, and any loan modification documents, easements, declarations, and/or restrictive covenants required by Lender, Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, all survey charges and costs, all title premiums and costs, documentary stamps incurred in connection with the release of the Partial Release Property in accordance with the requirements contained herein, and all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs, fees, and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the requested release of the Partial Release Property. (j) Borrower shall have provided Lender with a Rating Confirmation with respect to the Partial Release. (k) Borrower shall pay Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the Partial Release, as set forth below. Borrower shall pay or reimburse Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such request for a Partial Release, including, but not limited to, the preparation, negotiation and review of any and all materials required to be provided in connection therewith (including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses).

Releases of Collateral from the Mortgages and other Security Documents shall not affect or impair the Lien of the Mortgages and the Administrative Agent’s Lien and security interests created by the other Loan Documents as to the Collateral and other property encumbered by the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents not theretofore released, and said Liens and security interests shall continue in full force and effect as to the Collateral and such other property not released. Except as set forth in this Section 4.2, no Collateral shall be released from the Lien of a Mortgage applicable thereto. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to release Collateral in accordance with this Section 4.2.
