THIS LOAN AGREEMENT, dated this 6^th day of March, 2018, among KBS SOR CITY TOWER, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”), and COMPASS BANK, an Alabama banking corporation, and any successors appointed pursuant to this Agreement, as administrative agent (“Administrative Agent”) and in its capacity as the sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner (in such capacities, “Sole Lead Arranger” and “Sole Bookrunner,” respectively) and the lenders party hereto (each a “Lender”, and collectively, the “Lenders”). The parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS

1.1 Defined Terms.

In addition to terms defined elsewhere in this Agreement, as used in this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Accounting Principles”: As used herein and in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto, accounting terms not defined in Section 1.1, and accounting terms partly defined in Section 1.1 to the extent not defined, shall have the respective meanings given to them under GAAP. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and Borrower or Administrative Agent shall so request, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP; provided that, until so amended, such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein.

“Additional Advance”: Shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2.1(b).

“Adjusted Rent Concessions”: Means (i) all free-rent periods or abatements (x) in excess of one month per year of Lease term, or (y) in excess of ten months of free rent, and (ii) all above-market amounts paid or foregone by Borrower directly to or on behalf of any tenant for the purpose of inducing such tenant to enter into a Lease, including, without limitation, tenant improvement allowances, moving expenses, and/or assumptions or buyouts of the tenant’s obligations under other leases as may be adjusted by Administrative Agent. The term “above-market” shall be understood to mean amounts in excess of those assumed in the then most recent Appraisal for the Premises, or, with respect to tenant improvement costs, such other amount as may be approved by Administrative Agent in its discretion. Administrative Agent shall have the right to adjust any concessions based, in part and as applicable, upon assumptions set forth in the then most current Appraisal for the Premises in question. All Adjusted Rent Concessions shall be amortized over the full Lease term with annual amortization only to be deducted for the purpose of determining Net Operating Income. (Example: Concessions in the form of above-market “tenant improvements” for a five (5) year lease term total $100,000; the annualized deduction in determining shall be $20,000).

“Adjusted Rent Rate”: Means the following percentages: If the tenant under the applicable Lease has not yet commenced paying rent, but will commence paying rent (i) in the first

calendar month immediately following the date of determination, then one hundred percent (100%) of the applicable tenant’s first year rent; (ii) in the second calendar month immediately following the date of determination, ninety-two percent (92%) of the applicable tenant’s first year rent; (iii) in the third month of the calendar quarter immediately following the date of determination, eighty-three percent (83%) of the applicable tenant’s first year rent; and (iv) thereafter as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent; in each case excluding any Adjusted Rent Concessions.

“Affiliate”: As applied to any Person (the “Specified Person”), any other Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, the Specified Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control” (including, with correlative meanings, the terms “controlling”, “controlled by” and “under common control with”), as applied to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Specified Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities or by contract or otherwise.

“Administrative Agent”: Has the meaning set forth in the introductory paragraph hereof.

“Agreement”: This Loan Agreement, as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time.

“Applicable Margin”: 2.00% with respect to Base Rate Loans, and 1.55% with respect to LIBOR Loans.

“Appraisal”: A FIRREA conforming appraisal of the Premises, delivered at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, which appraisal must be satisfactory to Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion.

“Bail-In Action” shall mean the exercise of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable EEA Resolution Authority in respect of any liability of an EEA Financial Institution.

“Bail-In Legislation” shall mean, with respect to any EEA Member Country implementing Article 55 of Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of the European Union, the implementing law for such EEA Member Country from time to time which is described in the EU Bail-In Legislation Schedule.

“Base Rate”: The interest rate per annum published in the New York edition of The Wall Street Journal from time to time as the “Prime Rate”. If The Wall Street Journal ceases to publish the “Prime Rate,” Administrative Agent shall select an alternate publication that publishes

- 7 -

such “Prime Rate,” and if such “Prime Rates” are no longer generally published or are limited, regulated or administered by a governmental or quasi-governmental body, then Administrative Agent shall select a comparable interest rate index. The Prime Rate is a non-managed rate based upon prevailing prime rates quoted in The Wall Street Journal. If multiple prime rates are quoted in the table, then the highest prime rate will be the Prime Rate. Prime Rate is a reference rate and does not necessarily represent the lowest or best rate being charged to any customer. Any change in the Base Rate resulting from a change in the Prime Rate shall become effective on the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate.

“Base Rate Loan”: Any portion of the Loan bearing interest at a rate based upon the Base Rate.

“Business Day”: A day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which Administrative Agent is closed; provided that, for the purposes of determining LIBOR, the term “Business Day” shall also exclude any day on which banks are not open for dealings in U.S. dollar deposits in the London interbank market.

Borrower shall make each payment of principal, interest, fees, indemnity, expenses, or other amount hereunder or under any Loan Document, without setoff or counterclaim, not later than 11:00 a.m., Pacific time, on the day when due in Dollars to Administrative Agent at the office of Administrative Agent designated from time to time in writing, in immediately available funds, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue, and without setoff, counterclaim, withholding or other deduction of any kind. Any payment received by

- 26 -

Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m., Pacific time, on any day shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day.

3.6 Payment on Non-Business Days; Non-Payment Dates.

(a) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time may be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in connection with such payment.

(b) Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days after notice, pay to Administrative Agent amounts determined in the good faith judgment of Administrative Agent, to compensate the Lenders for any cost of redeploying funds in connection with (i) any repayment (whether voluntary or involuntary) of any portion of any LIBOR Loan on a date other than a Payment Date, and (ii) the conversion (for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary) of any LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan on any day other than a Payment Date. A certificate of any such amount furnished to Borrower by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of a demonstrable error. Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3.6 are in addition to Borrower’s obligations to pay any Prepayment Premium required hereunder.

3.7 Inability to Determine Interest Rate; Ineffective Interest Rate. If Administrative Agent shall have determined that (a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR as set forth herein, (b) LIBOR does not adequately and fairly reflect the effective cost to Lenders of making or maintaining a LIBOR Loan, or (c) the making, maintenance or funding of a LIBOR Loan has been made impractical or unlawful, then, and in any such event, Administrative Agent may notify Borrower of such determination. As of such date as shall be specified in such notice, the Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan, and all Loans shall thereafter be Base Rate Loans unless and until such circumstances shall no longer exist and Administrative Agent shall have revoked such notice. If an event described in Section 3.7(a) exists and Administrative Agent has determined that such event is unlikely to be temporary in nature, Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternative interest rate methodology to LIBOR that gives due consideration to to then prevailing market conventions for determining a rate of interest rates for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.7, such amendment shall become effective upon Administrative Agent’s receipt of written consent to such amendment by the Required Lenders.

3.8 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the definition of LIBOR);

- 27 -

(ii) subject any Lender to any Indemnified Taxes; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by any Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to any Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make the Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of Administrative Agent, Borrower will pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will reasonably compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If Administrative Agent determines that any Change in Law affecting any Lender or any lending office of any Lender regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, upon written demand therefor, Borrower will pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will reasonably compensate such Lender for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and delivered to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.9 Calculations. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to any Lender under Section 3.8, such Lender shall be deemed to have funded (without any obligation to do so) each LIBOR Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank Eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period of each such LIBOR Loan.

- 28 -

3.10 Insurance Premium and Tax Payments. Commencing on the first Payment Date following the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.1(a) of the Guaranty for termination of Guarantor’s obligation to guarantee the Principal Guaranty Amount (as defined in the Guaranty), upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall deposit with Administrative Agent a catch-up amount determined by Administrative Agent for real estate taxes and insurance premiums next becoming due and payable and, thereafter, on a monthly basis Borrower is required to deposit with Administrative Agent (or to such other Entity as Administrative Agent shall designate), monthly on each Payment Date, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12^th) of (i) the annual premiums for the insurance policies required under this Agreement, and (ii) the annual Real Estate Taxes (collectively the “Tax and Insurance Reserve”); and on demand from time to time Borrower shall deposit with Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, any additional sums necessary to pay such costs, all as reasonably estimated by Administrative Agent and set forth in a written notice provided to Borrower. The amounts so deposited shall be security for the payment of such costs and shall be used by Borrower in payment thereof so long as no Event of Default is continuing. No amount so deposited shall be deemed to be trust funds but may be commingled with general funds of Administrative Agent and no interest shall be payable thereon. If, pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or the Notes, the whole amount of the unpaid principal debt hereunder becomes due and payable, Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to apply any amount so held, in such order and in such amounts as Administrative Agent may elect, against: (a) any amounts payable by Borrower hereunder or under the Loan Documents, and/or (b) accrued and unpaid interest under the Notes, and/or (c) the outstanding principal balance of the Notes. Borrower shall submit written requests for disbursements from the Tax and Insurance Reserve not less than twenty-one (21) days prior to the date Borrower desires such disbursement. Any such request for disbursement shall include bills or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the amounts to be paid. Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent evidence of payment of Real Estate Taxes not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the same becoming due. Administrative Agent may engage, at Borrower’s expense (not to exceed $1,000 per annum), a service to monitor real property tax accounts affecting the Premises for the term of the Loan.

3.11 Cash Management. From and after the Closing Date Borrower shall direct all tenants, pursuant to a Tenant Direction Notice, to transmit rents directly to the Lockbox for deposit into the Clearing Account. Any rents received directly by Borrower or Manager shall be deposited into the Clearing Account within one (1) Business Day of receipt. Unless a Cash Sweep Period is continuing, funds deposited into the Clearing Account shall be swept on a daily basis into the Operating Account. Upon the occurrence of a Cash Sweep Period and until a Cash Sweep Cure has occurred, (i) a portion of the funds in the Clearing Account shall, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, be transferred (each an “Operating Expense Transfer”) to the Operating Account in amounts consistent with Administrative Agent-approved budgets or as otherwise approved by Administrative Agent in writing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, (ii) any remaining funds shall be held as additional cash collateral (“Sweep Collateral”) for the Loan. Administrative Agent shall endeavor to complete such Operating Expense Transfers within five (5) Business Days following Borrower’s request and Administrative Agent’s approval of such transfer; provided, however, such transfers shall not be made more than once per calendar month. Following the occurrence of a Cash Sweep Period, upon the occurrence

- 29 -

of a Cash Sweep Cure, funds deposited into the Clearing Account (excluding any existing Sweep Collateral) shall again be swept on a daily basis into the Operating Account. If a Cash Sweep Period has commenced and a Cash Sweep Cure has not occurred within 180 days after the commencement of such Cash Sweep Period, Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, as a principal payment of the Loan, or deposit with Administrative Agent additional Sweep Collateral in an amount, which when added to the existing Sweep Collateral would be sufficient, if applied to the reduction in principal of the Loan, to have caused the Debt Service Coverage Ratio to be equal to or greater than 1.35:1.00 (for purpose of clarity, any such deposit shall not in itself constitute a Cash Sweep Cure and Borrower must satisfy the terms set forth in the definition of Cash Sweep Cure for such cure to be effective). The Sweep Collateral shall be held by Administrative Agent until such time as a Cash Sweep Collateral Release has occurred after which time Administrative Agent shall promptly disburse all Sweep Collateral then held by Administrative Agent to Borrower. If a Cash Sweep Period has commenced and thereafter a Cash Sweep Collateral Release has not occurred within 360 days after the commencement of such Cash Sweep Period, Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, as a principal payment of the Loan, an amount, which when added to the existing Sweep Collateral would be sufficient, if applied to the reduction in principal of the Loan, to have caused the Debt Service Coverage Ratio to be equal to or greater than 1.35:1.00. Administrative Agent shall thereafter apply all Sweep Collateral in repayment of principal of the Loan.

9.4 Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel, auditors, appraisers and other

- 57 -

professional, accounting and consulting costs, and during the continuance of an Event of Default, a reasonable estimate of the allocated costs of in-house counsel and staff, and costs associated with recording and filing any Security Document, searching liens against the Premises, and any and all post-judgment collection costs and expenses) which Administrative Agent may incur from time to time in connection with the preparation, amendment, modification, enforcement or restructuring or preservation of rights or remedies under, this Agreement. Upon request by Borrower, Administrative Agent shall provide evidence of such costs and expenses.

9.5 Indemnity. Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their shareholders, officers, directors, employees and agents of Administrative Agent and the Lenders (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Parties and directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way relating to any one or more of the following: (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring in, on or about the Premises or any part thereof or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (b) any use, nonuse or condition in, on or about the Premises or any part thereof or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (c) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Premises or any part thereof; (d) any failure of the Premises to be in compliance with any applicable Laws; (e) any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against the Indemnified Parties by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on their part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained in any lease, management agreement or any other agreement for services with respect to the Premises to which Borrower is a party; and (f) the payment of any commission, charge or brokerage fee to anyone (other than a broker or other agent retained by Administrative Agent) which may be payable in connection with the funding of the Loan evidenced by the Notes and secured by the Mortgage, except to the extent any such loss is the result of the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.

9.6 Protective Advances. Administrative Agent shall have the right, with notice to Borrower to the extent practicable and so long as no Event of Default is continuing, to take such action as Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary to preserve and protect its interest in the Premises, including, without limitation, obtaining insurance coverage as required hereunder, and all expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance shall be secured by the Mortgage and paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, as applicable, upon demand and, until paid, shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

9.7 Assignments and Participations.

(a) No Lender may sell, assign, transfer, pledge, mortgage or hypothecate its rights or obligations (including, without limitation, its Commitment) under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly permitted under this Section 9.7. Each Lender shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights and obligations arising under this Agreement and any of its rights and security hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, in whole or in part,

- 58 -

subject to the receipt of the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, provided that Administrative Agent shall be required to remain the administrative agent under the Loan provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Administrative Agent has not elected to discontinue administering real estate loans in the State of California (subject to the Required Lenders’ right to remove Administrative Agent if Administrative Agent is grossly negligent or commits willful misconduct). In addition to obtaining the consent of the Administrative Agent, the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required to the extent any Lender shall assign or transfer its rights and obligations arising under this Agreement and any of its rights and security hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, in whole or in part, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment. If Borrower’s consent to an assignment or transfer is required under this Section 9.7 and Borrower fails to provide written notice of disapproval of such assignment or transfer within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice, then Administrative Agent shall submit a second written request for approval by first-class certified or registered United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, by nationally-recognized overnight courier, or by personal delivery, in all cases with charges prepaid, which second request shall contain (i) the following notice in bold-face capital letters in 14-point font or larger: “RESPONSE REQUIRED WITHIN TWO (2) BUSINESS DAYS OF RECEIPT. FAILURE TO DISAPPROVE THE SAME SHALL BE DEEMED APPROVAL IF NOT DISAPPROVED IN WRITING” and (ii) attach the initial request for approval. In the event that Borrower fails to provide written notice of disapproval within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such second notice, Borrower’s approval and consent shall be deemed to have been granted. With respect to any such assignment permitted under the terms of this Section 9.7, such assignment shall be further subject to the following conditions, that (i) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and exchange an assignment and assumption agreement (“Assignment and Assumption”) in substantially the form of Exhibit E attached hereto, (ii) each such assignment or transfer shall be of all of such Lender’s rights and obligations to the extent of the Percentage so assigned, (iii) each assignment or transfer is made upon at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent, (iv) each assignment or transfer is consented to by Administrative Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if the proposed assignee or transferee is an Eligible Assignee and has provided to Administrative Agent such documents and/or information as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in connection with such assignment or transfer. Upon such execution and exchange and if such Assignment and Assumption Agreement has been properly completed and consented to if required herein upon the effective date specified in the applicable Assignment and Assumption Agreement, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it and assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and Borrower hereby agrees that all of the rights and remedies of an assignee in connection with the interest so assigned shall be enforceable against Borrower by Administrative Agent on behalf of such assignee with the same force and effect and to the same extent as the same would have been enforceable but for such assignment, and (B) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, relinquish its rights and be released from all of its obligations hereunder and thereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall be permitted to assign all or any portion of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents

- 59 -

to Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower. All the rights and remedies of Borrower in connection with the interest so assigned shall be enforceable against such Eligible Assignee. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $4,500, which shall be fully earned and shall be due and payable upon the effectiveness of any such assignment. Any partial assignment of a Lender’s portion of the Loan shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000. Any assignment or transfer under this Section 9.7 shall be at no cost, expense or liability to Borrower for Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s costs and expenses (other than (x) de minimis costs or expenses of Administrative Agent and (y) any costs incurred by Borrower).

(b) If at any time an assignment by the Administrative Agent of its interest in the Loan results in Administrative Agent holding less than 33 1/3% of the Commitment, then Borrower shall have the right within fifteen (15) Business Days after such assignment, to notify and require that Administrative Agent resign as administrative agent and a success administrative agent shall be appointed in accordance with the terms of Article X.

(c) Promptly upon receipt of a fully executed and completed Assignment and Assumption Agreement, Administrative Agent shall record the information contained therein in its records and Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to Borrower (provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lender shall be liable for any failure to give such notice).

(d) Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and shall record in its records the name and address of such Lender and the Commitment of, and Percentage of the Loan owing to, such Lender from time to time. Borrower, Administrative Agent, and the Lenders may treat each entity whose name is so recorded as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Agreement, including this Section, each Lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank or any Federal Home Loan Bank and such pledge shall be enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof.

(f) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to another branch bank or Affiliate of such Lender without first obtaining the approval of Administrative Agent or Borrower, provided that (A) such Lender remains liable hereunder unless Administrative Agent shall otherwise agree, (B) at the time of such assignment such Lender is not in default under its obligations hereunder, (C) such Lender gives Administrative Agent at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice of any such assignment, and (D) the parties to such assignment execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement.

(g) Each Lender shall have the right, without the consent of Borrower or Administrative Agent, to sell participations to one or more other Person (each, a “Participant”) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including without

- 60 -

limitation its Commitment to Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of its obligations hereunder, (iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent and other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and with regard to any and all payments to be made under this Agreement, and (iv) the holder of any such participation interest shall not be entitled to voting rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 10.6(b) hereof. Any partial participation of a Lender’s portion of the Loan shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000. Any Lender’s efforts to sell a participation in the Loan shall be at no cost, expense or liability to Borrower for Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s costs and expenses (other than (x) de minimis costs or expenses of Administrative Agent and (y) any costs incurred by Borrower).

(h) Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Section 9.15 hereof, Administrative Agent and/or a Lender may provide to any prospective Eligible Assignee, prospective Participant or prospective pledgees originals or copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and any other documents, instruments, certificates, opinions, insurance policies, letters of credit, reports, requisitions and other materials and information of every nature or description, and may communicate all oral information, at any time submitted by or on behalf of Borrower or Guarantor or received by Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with the Loan or with respect to Borrower or Guarantor and such recipients shall be subject to confidentiality terms in accordance with Section 9.15. In order to facilitate assignments, transfers or grants of participation interests to an Eligible Assignee or a Participant, Borrower shall execute such further documents, instruments or agreements as Administrative Agent may request, including, without limitation, one or more new or replacement promissory notes, dated as of the effective date of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, after giving effect to such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, in exchange for the surrender from Administrative Agent to Borrower of the then outstanding promissory Notes, marked “Replaced” or “Substituted”, unless the original of such Notes is required to be maintained by Administrative Agent under applicable law; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to execute any document or agreement which would decrease its rights, or increase its obligations, relative to those set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including financial obligations, personal recourse, representations and warranties and reporting requirements). In addition, Borrower agrees to cooperate with Administrative Agent and each Lender in the exercise of such Lenders’ rights pursuant to this Section 9.7, including providing such information and documentation regarding Borrower as Administrative Agent, Lender or any potential Eligible Assignee or Participant may reasonably request and to meet with potential Eligible Assignees and/or Participants; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall Borrower or any of its affiliates be obligated to execute any certificates or similar documents or provide any representations or warranties confirming the accuracy of any information or otherwise.

- 61 -

(i) Omitted.

(j) No Eligible Assignee of any rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be permitted to subassign such rights and obligations and no Participant in any rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be permitted to sell subparticipations of such rights and obligations without the express written consent of Administrative Agent.

(k) Secondary Market Transaction. Borrower acknowledges that Administrative Agent may effectuate a Secondary Market Transaction. Borrower shall cooperate in good faith with Administrative Agent in effecting any such Secondary Market Transaction and shall cooperate in good faith to implement all requirements imposed by any Investor involved therein, including, without limitation, all structural or other changes to Borrower and/or the Debt, and modifications to any Loan Documents; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to modify any Loan Documents if such modification would (A) increase the interest rate payable under the Notes, (B) shorten the period until the stated maturity of the Notes, (C) modify the amortization of principal of the Notes, or (D) modify any other material term of the Debt. Borrower shall provide such information and documents relating to Borrower, any Guarantor, the Premises and any tenants as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with such Secondary Market Transaction, provided, however, that Borrower’s failure to provide such information shall not constitute a default hereunder if Borrower is unable to obtain such information after exercising commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the same. Borrower shall make available to Administrative Agent all information concerning its business and operations that Administrative Agent may reasonably request. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.15, Administrative Agent shall be permitted to share all information provided in connection with the Loan with the Investors, investment banking firms, accounting firms, law firms and other third-party firms involved with the Loan Documents or the applicable Secondary Market Transaction. It is understood that the information provided to Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan may ultimately be incorporated into the offering documents for the Secondary Market Transaction and thus potential Investors may also see some or all of the information with respect to the Loan, the Premises, Borrower and the owners of Borrower; provided, however, that such recipients shall be subject to confidentiality terms in accordance with Section 9.15. Borrower irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have under any applicable laws (including, without limitation, any right of privacy) to prohibit such disclosure. Administrative Agent and all of the aforesaid third-party advisors and professional firms shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, Borrower. Borrower shall take all actions as Administrative Agent may reasonably request to assist Administrative Agent in its Secondary Market Transaction effort. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower shall, at the request of Administrative Agent (a) facilitate the review of the Loan and the Premises by any prospective lender; (b) assist Administrative Agent and otherwise cooperate with Administrative Agent in the preparation of information offering materials (which assistance may include reviewing and commenting on drafts of such information materials and drafting portions thereof); (c) deliver updated information on Borrower and the Premises; (d) make representatives of Borrower available at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to meet with prospective lenders at tours of the Premises and bank meetings, which meeting shall take place at the Premises or at Borrower’s offices; (e) facilitate direct contact between the senior management and advisors of Borrower and any prospective lender, which meeting shall take place at Borrower’s

- 62 -

offices; and (f) provide Administrative Agent with all information reasonably deemed necessary by it to complete the syndication successfully; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall Borrower or any of its affiliates be obligated to execute any certificates or similar documents or provide any representations or warranties confirming the accuracy of any information or otherwise.

(l) Component Notes. Administrative Agent, without in any way limiting Administrative Agent’s other rights hereunder, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right at any time to require Borrower to execute and deliver “component” notes (which may include senior and junior notes), which notes may be paid in such order of priority as may be designated by Administrative Agent, provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such “component” notes shall equal the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such “component” notes, (b) the weighted average interest rate of all such “component” notes shall on the date created equal the interest rate which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such “component” notes, (c) the debt service payments on all such “component” notes shall on the date created equal the debt service payment which was due under the Loan immediately prior to the creation of such component notes and (d) the other terms and provisions of each of the “component” notes shall be identical in substance and substantially similar in form to the Loan Documents.

- 63 -

or any other Person and (B) neither Administrative Agent, nor Sole Lead Arranger, nor Sole Bookrunner has any obligation to Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) Administrative Agent, Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither Administrative Agent, nor Sole Lead Arranger, nor Sole Bookrunner has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to Borrower or any of its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Administrative Agent, Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

(p) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice..

(q) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register..

Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent a security interest in all deposits and accounts maintained with, and all other assets of Borrower in the possession of, Administrative Agent and its Affiliates. The rights of Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section 9.13 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which Administrative Agent and the Lenders may have. Borrower agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any Affiliates of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and any holder of a participation in any obligation of Borrower under this Agreement, shall have the same rights of setoff as Administrative Agent and the Lenders as provided in this Section 9.13 regardless of whether such Affiliate or participant otherwise would be deemed a creditor of Borrower. Administrative Agent agrees to notify Borrower promptly after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

ARTICLE X
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

10.1 Appointment. Compass Bank, an Alabama banking corporation, is hereby appointed as Administrative Agent hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each Lender originally named herein or who hereafter becomes a Lender hereunder hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to act as administrative agent for the Lenders and to take such actions as the Lenders are obligated or entitled to take under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In addition, Administrative Agent shall have the power to issue and is hereby authorized by the Lenders to issue all of the Lenders’ consents and approvals and waivers hereunder. Administrative Agent agrees to act in substantially the same manner that it would act in dealing with a loan held for its own account. Administrative Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with respect to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall act solely as administrative agent of the Lenders and does not assume, and shall not be deemed to have assumed, any obligations toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower.

10.2 Reliance on Administrative Agent. All acts of and communications by Administrative Agent, as administrative agent for the Lenders, shall be deemed legally conclusive and binding; and Borrower or any third party (including any court) shall rely on any and all communications or acts of Administrative Agent with respect to the exercise of any rights or the granting of any consent, waiver or approval on behalf of the Lenders in all circumstances where an action by a Lender is required or permitted pursuant to this Agreement or the provisions of any other Loan Document or by applicable laws without the right or necessity of making any inquiry of such Lender as to the authority of Administrative Agent with respect to such matter. In no event shall any of the foregoing limit the rights or obligations of any Lender with respect to any other Lender pursuant to this Article X.

10.3 Powers. Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise all powers that the Lenders have under the Loan Documents and shall exercise such powers on behalf of the Lenders. All rights of action (including the right to file proof of claims) under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents may be enforced by the Administrative Agent without the possession of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other proceedings relating thereto. Any such suit or proceeding instituted by Administrative Agent shall be brought in its name as administrative agent for the Lenders without the necessity of joining the Lenders as plaintiff or defendant. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.5 hereof, any recovery of judgment shall be for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders.

10.4 Disbursements. At least two (2) Business Days (by 11:00 A.M. New York time) prior to the date an Additional Advance is to be made (such date being referred to herein as a “Funding Date”), Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the amount requested by

- 70 -

Borrower, the amount approved by Administrative Agent, the portion of the proposed disbursement to be funded by each Lender and the Funding Date. Each Lender shall make available to Administrative Agent (or the funding bank or entity designated by Administrative Agent), the amount of such Lender’s Percentage of each Additional Advance in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on the Funding Date. Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender prior to the Funding Date with respect to any Additional Advance that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Percentage of such Additional Advance, Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent on or prior to the applicable Funding Date, the Lender who has not funded its Percentage of such Additional Advance agrees to pay and Borrower agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount is paid or repaid to Administrative Agent, at (a) in the case of a Lender, the Default Rate, and (b) in the case of Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to a disbursement made on such Funding Date. If such Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Additional Advance, and if both such Lender and Borrower shall have paid and repaid, respectively, such corresponding amount, Administrative Agent shall promptly return to Borrower such corresponding amount in same day funds. Requests by Administrative Agent for funding by the Lenders of Additional Advances will be made by facsimile or by e-mail. Nothing in this Section 10.4 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Percentage of any Additional Advance on any Funding Date, nor shall any Lender be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to perform its obligations to make any Additional Advance hereunder, and the Commitment of any Lender shall not be increased or decreased as a result of the failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Additional Advances hereunder.

10.5 Distribution and Apportionment of Payments. § Subject to Section 10.5(b) hereof, payments actually received by Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders shall be paid to them promptly after receipt thereof by Administrative Agent, but in any event within one (1) Business Day of receipt, provided that if any such payments are not distributed to the Lenders within one (1) Business Day after Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof, Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lenders interest thereon, at a rate equal to the overnight cost of funds at which federal funds are made available to Administrative Agent (such interest rate to change automatically effective as of the date of each change in the overnight cost of federal funds) until such funds are paid in immediately available funds to such Lenders. For purposes of this Section 10.5, funds shall be deemed received by Administrative Agent on the date actually received if such funds are received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (Houston, Texas time) and shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day if such funds are actually received by Administrative Agent after 11:00 A.M. (Houston, Texas time). All payments of principal and interest in respect of the Loan, all payments of the fees payable to Lender described in this Agreement (except any fees payable pursuant to the Fee Letter, which fees shall be payable solely to the parties indicated therein), and all payments in respect of any other obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be allocated among those Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion of their respective Percentages

- 71 -

or otherwise as provided herein or in the other Loan Documents, as the case may be. Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender at its primary address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that Administrative Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments and seek appropriate relief (including instructions from the Required Lenders, or all the Lenders, as applicable, or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby. The order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Lenders as among themselves and may at any time or from time to time be changed by the Lenders as they may elect, in writing, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower.

(a) If any (but less than all) of the Lenders default (each such Lender, a “Defaulting Lender” and each such default, a “Lender Default Event”) in funding its percentage of an Additional Advance or paying any other sum payable by it under this Article X on or before the time required herein (such sum is referred to as the “Lender Default Amount”), then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the other Lenders (“Non-Defaulting Lenders”) and Borrower at law and in equity:

(i) Administrative Agent, or any other Lender which under the terms of this Agreement is entitled to reimbursement from the Defaulting Lender for all or any portion of the Lender Default Amount, may collect from the Defaulting Lender the Lender Default Amount plus interest thereon at the Default Rate for the period commencing on the date of the Lender Default Event and continuing through and including the date on which the Defaulting Lender repays the Lender Default Amount and interest thereon at the Default Rate and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon in full (the “Lender Default Period”);

(ii) Administrative Agent shall provide a notice to Borrower and each Non-Defaulting Lender of each Lender Default Event, which notice shall indicate the amount of the specific Lender Default Amount. From the date of the Lender Default Event until a Defaulting Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender, the Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loan and the Loan Documents, including any rights to vote upon, approve of, consent to or direct any action of Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall be suspended and such rights shall not be reinstated unless and until such Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender (and all decisions which are subject to receiving a vote of the required percentage of the Lenders, shall be approved if voted in favor of by the required percentage of the Non-Defaulting Lenders); provided, however, that if Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent shall continue to serve as Administrative Agent, unless Required Lenders vote to remove and replace Administrative Agent, which removal shall become effective only at such time as Borrower has received (A) written notice thereof, and (B) an executed, recordable instrument pursuant to which the replacement agent assumes the obligations of Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. A Defaulting Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender only if the Defaulting Lender pays, in full, the Lender Default Amount plus interest thereon at the Default Rate for the Lender Default Period within ten (10) days of the notice specified in the first sentence of this Section 10.5(b)(ii). The parties acknowledge that more than one

- 72 -

Lender Default Period may be in effect at any time with respect to any Lender and also with respect to more than one Lender at any one time;

(iii) it shall be a condition precedent to each Non-Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund its Additional Advance that either one or more Non-Defaulting Lenders or a Replacement Lender fund the Lender Default Amount, and accordingly no Lender shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender on the basis of having refused to fund its Additional Advance if such condition precedent is not satisfied. Any or all of the Non-Defaulting Lenders shall be entitled (but shall not be obligated) to fund the Lender Default Amount, and subject to Section 10.5(b)(vi) hereof, collect interest at the Default Rate from amounts otherwise payable to the Defaulting Lender for the Lender Default Period. If more than one Non-Defaulting Lender elects to fund the Lender Default Amount, the Lender Default Amount shall be apportioned among the electing Non-Defaulting Lenders in the proportion that the amount of the Commitment of each such electing Non-Defaulting Lender bears to the total Commitments of all electing Non-Defaulting Lenders. The actual funding by either one or more Non-Defaulting Lenders or a Replacement Lender of the Lender Default Amount shall not terminate the Lender Default Period with respect to the Defaulting Lender nor relieve the Defaulting Lender of its obligation to pay interest at the Default Rate or other amounts as otherwise provided herein;

(iv) Administrative Agent shall not transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by or on behalf of Borrower to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit; nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to share in any payments hereunder or under any Notes until all Lender Default Amounts, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate for the Lender Default Period, have been paid in full. In the event the Lender Default Amount is funded by one or more Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 10.5(b)(iii) hereof, the Defaulting Lender’s entire interest in the Loan (including, without limitation, the amount of the prior advances made by such Defaulting Lender prior to the Lender Default Event, the Loan Documents and proceeds thereof (the “Defaulting Lender’s Loan Interest”) shall be subordinated to any Lender Default Amount funded by any Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 10.5(b)(iii) hereof, plus interest which may be due in accordance with Section 10.5(b)(iii) hereof at the Default Rate (to be applied pari passu among the Non-Defaulting Lenders funding the Lender Default Amount), without necessity for executing any further documents;

(v) to achieve such subordination, Administrative Agent shall pay from any payments made by or on behalf of Borrower to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit which would otherwise be payable to the Defaulting Lender first to those Non-Defaulting Lenders that have elected to fund the Lender Default Amount, interest on the principal amount of the Lender Default Amount at the Default Rate, then to those Non-Defaulting Lenders that have elected to fund the Lender Default Amount, the principal of the Lender Default Amount until paid in full, such payments to be paid pari passu to the Non-Defaulting Lenders until the Lender Default Amount and all interest thereon at the Default Rate has been repaid;

- 73 -

(vi) if, twenty (20) days after a Defaulting Lender’s default, there remains any unfunded Lender Default Amount which has not been funded by the Non-Defaulting Lenders or the Defaulting Lender (the “Unfunded Defaulted Amount”), then a portion of the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Loan and the Loan Documents and the proceeds thereof equal to the amount of the Unfunded Defaulted Amount (together with interest thereon at the rate applicable to the Lender Default Amount from time to time pursuant to the Loan Documents) shall be subordinated to the interests of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in all of the indebtedness evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents unless and until such Unfunded Defaulted Amount is funded by the Defaulting Lender;

(vii) if a Lender remains a Defaulting Lender for twenty (20) days, and no other Lender or Lenders have funded all amounts not theretofore funded by the Defaulting Lender, then Administrative Agent and Borrower shall each have the right to designate a replacement institutional lender (“Replacement Lender”) satisfactory to Administrative Agent, which Replacement Lender shall agree to fund all amounts not theretofore funded by the Defaulting Lender and agrees to assume all obligations thereafter to be performed by the Defaulting Lender and upon approval by Administrative Agent such Replacement Lender shall be an Eligible Assignee and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly enter into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with such Replacement Lender as contemplated by Section 9.7 of this Agreement. For the purposes of clarification, the existence of a Replacement Lender shall not be (and shall not be deemed to be) a cure by a Defaulting Lender of the Lender Default Event and the existence of a Replacement Lender shall not release the Defaulting Lender from any of the obligations of such Defaulting Lender set forth herein, to the extent such Replacement Lender does not fully and completely satisfy such obligations;

(viii) the provisions of this Section 10.5 shall apply notwithstanding any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments; and

(ix) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the Lender Default Amount, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate and, to the extent such recovery would not fully compensate the Lenders for the Defaulting Lender’s breach of this Agreement, to collect damages. In addition, the Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), plus interest thereon at the Default Rate, for funds advanced by Administrative Agent or any other Lender on account of the Defaulting Lender or any other damages such entities may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to abide by its obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Each Lender severally represents and warrants as of the date such Lender becomes a Lender here under that it is entitled to receive payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents without the withholding of any tax. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender

- 74 -

that, as of such date, such Lender is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, Lender agrees that it will deliver to Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and its Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each Lender which so delivers a Form 1001 or 4224 further undertakes to deliver Administrative Agent two additional copies of such form (or a successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be requested by Administrative Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and its Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax. Upon Borrower’s written request, each applicable Lender shall deliver to Borrower copies of the documents referenced above regarding tax withholding.

10.6 Consents and Approval.

(a) Each of the following shall require the approval or consent of the Required Lenders:

(i) declaring the principal amount due under the Notes to be immediately due and payable following an Event of Default or any recession of any such acceleration;

(ii) approval of the exercise of rights and remedies under the Loan Documents following an Event of Default (except emergency remedies that Administrative Agent determines in good faith are necessary to protect the Collateral and the Lenders’ interests in the Loan and the Collateral);

(iii) appointment of a successor Administrative Agent;

(iv) approval of Post-Default Plan and related matters;

(v) waiver of any of the covenants set forth in Article VII hereof;

- 75 -

(b) Each of the following shall require the approval or consent of all of the Lenders (in each case, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement):

(i) extension of the Maturity Date (other than in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents) or forgiveness of all or any portion of the principal amount due under the Notes or any accrued interest thereon, or any waiver or other amendment of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents which would reduce the underlying interest rate or the rate at which fees are calculated or forgive any loan fee or any other amount due under this Agreement, or extend the time of payment of any principal, interest or fees;

(ii) amend the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or otherwise change the definition of Required Lenders;

(iii) increase of the principal amount of the Loan (except in connection with advances to protect and preserve the value of the Collateral and the Lenders’ interest in the Collateral and the Loan);

(iv) release of any lien on any material collateral other than in accordance with the Loan Documents (except after payment in full of the Loan);

(v) amendment of the provisions of this Article X;

(vi) issuance of a consent to subordinate liens against the Premises;

(vii) subordination of the Mortgage to any other lien or encumbrance except in connection with normal and customary access easements on, under, over and across the Premises, and utility easements located in, on over, under, across and through the Premises for the installation and maintenance of underground potable water lines, sanitary sewer lines, electric lines, storm sewer pipes, cable and telephone lines and other utility lines and facilities necessary for providing such utility services to the Premises or other properties;

(viii) amend the definition of Eligible Assignee in any manner which would or might permit Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor to be a Lender hereunder;

(ix) release of any obligations of any Guarantor or any claims against any Guarantor other than in accordance with the Loan Documents (except after payment in full of the Loan).

(c) In addition to the required consents or approvals referred to in Sections 10.6(a) and 10.6(b) hereof, Administrative Agent may at any time request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which, by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant without instructions from any Lenders, and if such instructions are promptly requested, Administrative Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold

- 76 -

any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever for refraining from taking any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Required Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders or, where applicable, all Lenders. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender at any time that the Required Lenders have instructed Administrative Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

(d) Each Lender authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Administrative Agent, at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the exercise by Administrative Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Lenders, except for actions specifically requiring the approval of all Lenders. All communications from Administrative Agent to the Lenders requesting Lenders’ determination, consent, approval or disapproval shall be given in writing to each Lender. Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the request therefor from Administrative Agent (the “Lender Reply Period”). Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it objects to the recommendation or determination of Administrative Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination. With respect to decisions requiring the approval of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, Administrative Agent shall submit its recommendation or determination for approval of or consent to such recommendation or determination to all Lenders and upon receiving the required approval or consent shall follow the course of action or determination recommended to the Lenders by Administrative Agent or such other course of action recommended by the Required Lenders, and each non-responding Lender shall be deemed to have concurred with such recommended course of action.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with respect to any decisions to be made by Administrative Agent, Lender or Required Lenders in connection with any action or inaction relating to letters of credit issued or to be issued by any Lender to Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan, including any decision whether or not to draw thereupon, such issuing Lender’s consent or approval shall not be necessary even where unanimous Lender approval otherwise would be required hereunder, and Required Lenders shall mean the required aggregate Percentage of the remaining Lenders (i.e., other than the issuing Lender).

(f) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver, or consent with respect to any provisions hereof as contemplated by this Section 10.6 that requires the consent of a greater percentage of the Lenders than the Required Lenders, the consent of the Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of a Lender whose consent is required shall not have been obtained (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then Borrower may, at

- 77 -

its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse, all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations; provided that (A) Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower, and (C) such Eligible Assignee shall consent at the time of such assignment to each matter in respect of which such Non-Consenting Lender did not consent. Each Lender agrees that, if it becomes a Non-Consenting Lender and is being replaced in accordance with this Section 10.6(f), it shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to evidence such assignment and shall deliver to Administrative Agent any Notes previously delivered to such Non-Consenting Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

10.7 Agency Provisions Relating to Collateral.

(a) Administrative Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, at any time and from time to time, to take any action with respect to any collateral for the Loan or any Loan Document which may be necessary to preserve and maintain such collateral or to perfect and maintain perfected the liens upon such collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Except as provided in this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other Person to assure that any collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the liens granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or pursuant hereto or thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority.

(c) Should Administrative Agent commence any proceeding or in any way seek to enforce Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether as a result thereof Administrative Agent shall acquire title to any collateral, each Lender, upon demand therefor from time to time, shall contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of the costs and/or expenses of any such enforcement or acquisition, including fees of receivers or trustees, court costs, title company charges, filing and recording fees, appraisers’ fees and fees and expenses of attorneys to the extent not otherwise reimbursed by Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender shall contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) if Administrative Agent employs counsel for advice or other representation (whether or not any suit has been or shall be filed) with respect to any collateral for the Loan or any part thereof, or any of the Loan Documents, or the attempt to enforce any security interest or lien on any collateral, or to enforce any rights of Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any of Borrower’s

- 78 -

or any other party’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents, but not with respect to any dispute between any Administrative Agent and any other Lender(s). It is understood and agreed that in the event Administrative Agent determines it is necessary to engage counsel for Lender from and after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, said counsel shall be selected by Administrative Agent and written notice of such selection, together with a copy of such counsel’s engagement letter and fee estimate, shall be delivered to the Lenders.

(d) If all or any portion of the collateral for the Loan is acquired by Administrative Agent as the result of the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents, title to any such collateral or any portion thereof shall be held in the name of one or more nominees or subsidiaries of the Lenders. Administrative Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such collateral (the “Post-Default Plan”), which shall be subject to the approval of the Required Lenders. Administrative Agent shall administer the collateral in accordance with the Post-Default Plan, and upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent pursuant to the Post-Default Plan, including any operating losses and all necessary operating reserves. To the extent there is net operating income from such collateral, Administrative Agent shall, in accordance with the Post-Default Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to Lenders. All such distributions shall be made to Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages. In no event shall the provisions of this subsection or the Post-Default Plan require any Administrative Agent or any Lender to take an action which would cause such Lender to be in violation of any applicable regulatory requirements.

10.8 Lender Actions Against Borrower or the Collateral. Each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against Borrower, Guarantor, or any other Person hereunder or under any other Loan Documents with respect to exercising claims against Borrower or rights in any collateral without the consent of the Required Lenders. Each Lender consents to the jurisdiction selected by Administrative Agent to enforce the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder.

10.9 Assignment and Participation to Borrower or Guarantor. No Lender shall be permitted to assign or sell all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor.

10.10 Ratable Sharing. Subject to Sections 10.4 and 10.5 hereof, the Lenders agree among themselves that (a) with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of the Loan (except any fees paid pursuant to the Fee Letter, which fees shall be payable solely to the parties indicated therein), equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their Percentages, whether received by voluntary payment, by the exercise of the right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any or all of the Loan Documents or any collateral, and (b) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim, set-off, banker’s lien or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Loan held by it which is greater than its Percentage of the payments on account of the Loan, the one receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an

- 79 -

undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such obligations shall be applied ratably in accordance with their Percentages; provided, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to that party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.

10.11 General Immunity. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to Borrower or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the absence of gross negligence, Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith pursuant to Section 10.5 hereof, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due, but not made, shall be to recover from the recipients of such payments any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to have been entitled.

10.12 No Responsibility for Loan, Recitals. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any use of the Loan; (b) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any party to any Loan Document; (c) the satisfaction of any condition specified in this Agreement, except receipt of items purporting to be the items required to be delivered to any Administrative Agent; or (d) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith, provided that the foregoing shall not release any Administrative Agent from liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

10.13 Action on Instructions of the Lenders. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by all the Lenders (or the Required Lenders, if such action may be directed hereunder by the Required Lenders), and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of Lenders. Each Lender, severally to the extent of its Percentage, hereby agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent against and hold it harmless from any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action, provided that the foregoing shall not release Administrative Agent from liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

10.14 Employment of Agents and Counsel. Administrative Agent may undertake any of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or

- 80 -

through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by them or their authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to the agency hereby created and its duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

10.15 Reliance on Documents; Counsel. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by Administrative Agent, which counsel may be an employee of Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not release Administrative Agent from liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any such counsel shall be deemed to be acting on behalf of the Lenders in assisting Administrative Agent with respect to the Loan, but shall not be precluded from also representing Administrative Agent in any matter in which the interests of Administrative Agent and the other Lenders may differ.

10.16 Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify Administrative Agent ratably (a) for any amounts (excluding principal and interest on the Loan and loan fees) not reimbursed by Borrower for which Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement under the Loan Documents, and (b) for any other expenses incurred by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents, if not paid by Borrower; provided, however, that except in the case of an emergency or other situation where Administrative Agent determines that prompt action is needed to protect the interests of the Lenders, Administrative Agent shall obtain the approval of the Required Lenders (i) to undertake any course of action which in Administrative Agent’s judgment is likely to result in unreimbursable expenses in excess of $3,000,000 or (ii) to continue a course of action if at any time unreimbursable expenses resulting therefrom actually exceed $3,000,000, (iii) for any expenses incurred by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders which may be necessary or desirable to preserve and maintain collateral or to perfect and maintain perfected the liens upon the collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, if not paid by Borrower, (iv) for any amounts and other expenses incurred by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in connection with any default by any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, if not paid by such Lender, and (v) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent.

10.17 Rights as a Lender. With respect to its Commitment, if any, Administrative Agent shall have the same rights, powers and obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document as any Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not an Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise

- 81 -

indicates, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacities. Borrower and each Lender acknowledge and agree that Administrative Agent, the Lenders and/or their respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, hold other investments in, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction or have other relationships, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with Borrower or any of its Affiliates in which Borrower or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

10.18 Lenders’ Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements and other information prepared by Borrower and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

10.19 Notice of Events of Default. Should Administrative Agent receive any written notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, or should Administrative Agent send Borrower a notice of Default or Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to each other Lender.

10.20 Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time, by giving at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lenders and Borrower. Such resignation shall take effect on the date set forth in such notice or as otherwise provided below. Such resignation by Administrative Agent as administrative agent shall not affect its obligations hereunder, if any, as a Lender. Additionally, if Administrative Agent is grossly negligent or commits willful misconduct, the Required Lenders may remove Administrative Agent from its role as administrative agent for the Lenders, without affecting Administrative Agent’s rights or obligations as a Lender.

(b) Upon resignation by or replacement of Administrative Agent, or any successor Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent (who shall be one of the Lenders) shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent on or prior to Administrative Agent’s resignation. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective and such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent upon the recordation of a written designation and acceptance, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents other than its liability, if any, for duties and obligations accrued prior to its retirement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as an Administrative Agent, the provisions of this

- 82 -

Article X shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as an Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The new Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to Borrower a copy of the designation and acceptance.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 10.20 to the contrary, Borrower shall have the right to reasonably approve a successor/replacement Administrative Agent, unless (i) an Event of Default exists and is continuing, (ii) successor/replacement Administrative Agent is an Eligible Assignee or (iii) successor/replacement Administrative Agent is a Lender.

10.21 Evidence of Exemption from Withholding of Taxes.

(a) Each Lender that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or other political subdivision thereof (for purposes of this Subsection 10.21, a “Non-US Lender”) shall deliver to Administrative Agent and to Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (1) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or any successor forms) properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US Lender, or (2) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming exemption from United States federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a Form W-8BEN, and a certificate of such Non-US Lender certifying that such Non-US Lender is not (A) a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (B) a ten-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of Borrower, or (C) a controlled foreign corporation related to Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code), in the case of each of (1) and (2) together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations issued thereunder to establish that such Non-US Lender is not subject to United States withholding tax with respect to any payments to such Non-US Lender of interest payable under any of the Loan Documents.

(b) Each Non-US Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to Administrative Agent and to Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Non-US Lender listed on the signature pages hereof), on or prior to the date of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Non-US Lender), or on such later date when such Non-US Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two original copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Non-US Lender under this Section 10.21(c), properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US Lender, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Non-

US Lender acts for its own account that is not subject to United States withholding tax, and (B) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8IMY (or any successor forms) properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US Lender, together with any information, if any, such Non-US Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations issued thereunder, to establish that such Non-US Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Non-US Lender.

(c) Each Non-US Lender hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Non-US Lender of such forms, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence so delivered obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect or if, by virtue of a Change in Law or regulations, such forms are no longer valid evidence of a Person’s exemption from withholding tax which is reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, that such Non-US Lender shall promptly (1) deliver to Administrative Agent and to Borrower two original copies of renewals, amendments or additional or successor forms, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required in order to confirm or establish that such Non-US Lender is not subject to United States withholding tax with respect to payments to such Non-US Lender under the Loan Documents and, if applicable, that such Non-US Lender does not act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such payments, or (2) notify Administrative Agent and Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(d) Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Non-US Lender under Section 3.8 hereof if (A) such Non-US Lender shall have failed to satisfy the requirements of paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 10.21 or (B) with respect to Indemnified Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or other political subdivision thereof, such Non-U.S. Lender shall have failed to satisfy its obligations hereunder (including without limitation by providing to Borrower any forms, certificates or other evidence establishing such Non-U.S. Lender’s entitlement to an exemption from or a reduced rate of any such Indemnified Taxes, but only if providing any such forms, certificates or other evidence is consistent with applicable laws and regulations and can be done without material cost or legal or regulatory disadvantage to such Non-U.S. Lender; provided that if such Non-US Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of Section 10.21(a) hereof on the date such Non-US Lender became a Lender and, as a result of any Change in Law, such Non-US Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Non-US Lender is not subject to withholding or subject to a reduced rate of withholding, nothing in this Section 10.21(d) shall relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay additional amounts as set forth in Section 3.8 with respect to any portion of any Indemnified Taxes with respect to which such Non-U.S. Lender is no longer able to provide forms, certificates or other evidence establishing such exemption or reduction in the rate of withholding.

Section 1.	GENERAL CONDITIONS

Each advance of the Loan following the Initial Advance and releases from the Capital Improvement Reserve shall be subject to Administrative Agent’s receipt, review, approval and/or confirmation of the following:


1.	Borrower shall have submitted to Administrative Agent a Request for Advance/release in the form of Exhibit F-1 attached hereto.


2.	No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.


3.	Each Additional Advance shall be secured by the Loan Documents, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, as evidenced by a title insurance endorsement reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.


4.	Borrower shall have paid all of Administrative Agent’s costs and expenses in connection with such advance/release.


5.	The representations made by Borrower in Section 5.26 continue to be true and correct.


6.	Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make (a) any Additional Advance or a release from the Capital Improvement Reserve for less than $250,000.00, except for the final Additional Advance/release or (b) Additional Advances/releases more often than once in any calendar.


7.	Each request for Additional Advance/release shall be submitted to Administrative Agent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the expected date of such Additional Advance.

Each Additional Advance/release shall be deposited into the Operating Account or, at Administrative Agent’s option, disbursed through an escrow satisfactory to Administrative Agent or, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, disbursed directly to the contractor or other party entitled to receipt of the same, and shall be used for payment of the costs specifically set forth in the

applicable request for Additional Advance/release approved by Administrative Agent in writing.

Each request for and acceptance of an Additional Advance/release shall be deemed to constitute, as of the date of such request or acceptance, a statement that (i) the budget for the work to be completed with the Additional Advances/releases shall not have increased, and (ii) all representations and warranties contained in the Loan documents are true and correct in all material respects except to the extent of changes in facts which do not constitute an Event of Default.

10.

If Administrative Agent so elects, Administrative Agent may condition any advance hereunder upon the inspection of the Premises by Administrative Agent, its construction consultant or other representative to confirm that any repairs or improvements for which such advance has been requested have been completed in accordance with the terms hereof, and Borrower shall be responsible for the reasonable cost of any such inspection.

11.

With respect to Additional Advances and not reserve releases, Administrative Agent shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to it, a date down endorsement from the Title Company that issued the title insurance policy accepted by Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement (the “Title Insurance Policy”), effective as of the date of such requested Additional Advance, indicating that since the preceding Additional Advance (or, in the case of the first Additional Advance after the date hereof, since the issuance of the Title Insurance Policy) there has been no lien, encumbrance or other matter not theretofore approved by Administrative Agent in writing, together with other evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent no mechanics’ liens have been filed and remain filed with respect to the Premises (except to the extent permitted herein) and insuring the lien and priority of the Mortgage in an amount equal to the Initial Advance plus each Additional Advance made subsequent to the date hereof pursuant to this Exhibit F, including the requested Additional Advance. The cost of all such endorsements and any title continuations associated therewith shall be paid by Borrower. If any intervening mechanics’ liens are filed against the Premises, the Lenders shall not be obligated to make the requested Additional Advance unless and until Borrower shall have caused such liens to be discharged of record or caused the Title Company to provide affirmative coverage over such liens in a manner (and based upon facts and circumstances) acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole absolute discretion


Section 2.	OMITTED


Section 3.	APPROVED LEASING EXPENSE ADVANCES

Additional Advances shall be made from the Leasing Expense Holdback as set forth below:

A. Advances for Tenant Improvements. Additional Advances for tenant improvements approved by Administrative Agent (“Tenant Expense Holdback”) shall be made subject to the following terms and conditions;


1.	The tenant under such Lease shall have taken occupancy and accepted the leased premises without offset, credit or defense, except as otherwise agreed to by Administrative Agent, as evidenced by a tenant estoppel certificate executed by such tenant, addressed to Administrative Agent, in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the term under such Lease has commenced; and

Borrower shall have furnished Administrative Agent with (x) a true and correct copy of the final or temporary, as applicable, certificate of occupancy for the improvements relating to such tenant expenses, and (y) with respect to tenant improvements constructed by Borrower, final lien waivers executed by each contractor, subcontractor and materialmen supplying labor or materials in connection with contracts/subcontracts. Provided that a Cash Sweep Period does not exist, Borrower may request a portion of the Additional Advances (“Spec Suite Advances”) for tenant improvements for suites (“Spec Suites”) at the Premise that are not subject to Leases. The aggregate amount of Spec Suite Advances outstanding at any time shall not, without Administrative Agent’s consent (in its sole discretion), exceed the lesser of (x) $2,000,000 and (y) an amount equal to 20% of the unadvanced Leasing Expense Holdback (the “Maximum Spec Suite Advances”). If at any time Borrower enters into Leases, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, for Spec Suites that were improved with Spec Suite Advances, the amount of such Spec Suite Advances applied to improve such Spec Suites shall be subtracted from the Maximum Spec Suite Advances. For example, if $2,000,000 of Spec Suite Advances have been made Borrower will not have the ability to request any additional Spec Suite Advances unless and until all or a portion of the Spec Suites are leased. If Borrower subsequently leases a Spec Suite on which Borrower expended $100,000 of Spec Suite Advances on tenant improvements, Borrower would then have the ability to request additional Spec Suite Advances of up to $100,000.

B. Advances for Leasing Commissions. Upon the request of Borrower, Additional Advances shall be made to pay leasing commissions in accordance with written leasing commission agreements approved in writing by Administrative Agent and providing for leasing commissions and terms comparable to existing local market terms and conditions; provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall not make Additional Advances for more than one-half (1/2) of the leasing commission at the time the relevant Lease is executed. The remaining portion of any leasing commission shall be advanced only after (a) the tenant under the Lease has taken occupancy, has accepted the leased premises and is paying rent under the Lease, without offset, credit or defense, as evidenced by a tenant estoppel certificate executed by such tenant or an Officer’s Certificate, addressed to Administrative Agent, in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent and (b) the brokers to whom such commissions are payable have acknowledged that the advance, when paid to the brokers, will constitute payment in full of all commissions due with respect to the Lease and have agreed to release Administrative Agent, Borrower and the Premises from any claim for any commissions due with respect to such Lease. Borrower may use a portion of the Additional Advances

for leasing commissions for speculative suites on such terms, and in such an amount, as determined by Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion. Additional Advances for tenant improvements and leasing commissions shall be cancelled as of the first extended Maturity Date.


Section 4.	CAPEX/RENOVATION ADVANCES

Additional Advances from the Capex/Renovation Holdback shall be made as set forth below:


1.	Lender shall reimburse Borrower with such Additional Advances in an amount equal to 50% of the expenses paid by Borrower.

Prior to any request for a Capex/Renovation Advance, Borrower shall have submitted for Administrative Agent’s reasonable approval (a) a description of the work to be completed, (b) the plans and specifications for such work, if applicable, which plans and specifications may not be changed without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (c) a construction schedule, and (d) if requested by Administrative Agent, copies of each contract or subcontract as requested by Administrative Agent.


3.	All work shall have been completed to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent and Borrower shall have expended an amount equal to the requested CapEx/Renovation Advance.


4.	Lender shall not be obligated to make Additional Advances from the Capex/Reserve Holdback after the initial Maturity Date.

Section 5. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS RESERVE RELEASES

Releases shall be made from the Capital Improvements Reserve for Required Capital Improvement expenses on the following terms and conditions:


1.	Such releases shall be made in reimbursement for expenses paid by Borrower.

Prior to any request for Capital Improvements Reserve releases, Borrower shall have submitted for Administrative Agent’s reasonable approval (a) a description of the improvements to be constructed, (b) the plans and specifications for such improvements, if applicable, which plans and specifications may not be changed without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, (c) a construction schedule, and (d) if requested by Administrative Agent, copies of each contract or subcontract as requested by Administrative Agent.


3.	All Required Capital Improvements shall have been completed to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent and Borrower shall have expended an amount equal to the Capital Improvements Reserve on capital improvements at the Premises.
