Indemnitor shall not settle any claim or matter which is the subject of the foregoing agreement of Indemnitor without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnifications set forth in this Indemnity shall not be applicable to any Losses to the extent (i) occasioned by, arising from or caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person, its nominee or wholly owned subsidiary or their respective employees or agents and irrespective of whether occurring prior to or subsequent to the date upon which Lender, its nominee or wholly owned subsidiary acquires possession of the Property by foreclosure of the Mortgage, a sale of the Property pursuant to the provisions of the Mortgage, acceptance of one of more deeds or assignments in lieu of foreclosure or sale or otherwise, or (ii) occasioned, arising and/or caused solely as the result of any event or condition that first arises on or after the date on which (A) Lender (or its transferee) acquires title or control of the Property (whether at foreclosure, sale, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or similar transfer), (B) a receiver has been appointed for, and has taken possession of, the Property, or (C) the Loan has been repaid in full.

Subject to the limitations in this Section 7 and the terms of the existing Leases, Lender and any assignee and its agents and representatives shall have the right at any reasonable time, on reasonable advance notice, to enter and visit the Property for the purposes of observing the Property, taking and removing soil or groundwater samples, and conducting tests on any part of the Property upon Lender’s Belief of a Release or Violation. Such parties shall have no duty, however, to visit or observe the Property or to conduct tests, and no site visit, observation or testing by any such party shall impose any liability on any such party. In no event shall any site visit, observation or testing by any such party be a representation that Hazardous Substances are or are not present in, on or under the Property, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any Environmental Laws. Neither Indemnitor nor any other Person is entitled to rely on any site visit, observation or testing by any such party. Any such party shall give Indemnitor reasonable notice before entering the Property and such site visits, observations, testing shall be limited to once per calendar year, subject to Lender’s Belief of a Release or Violation.

10. Several Liability. The liability of the entities comprising Indemnitor under this Indemnity shall be joint and several and solidary.

11. Unconditional Character of Obligations of Indemnitor.

(a) The obligations of Indemnitor hereunder shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability, in whole or in part, of the other Loan Documents or any provision thereof, or the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against Borrower, Indemnitor or any other Person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of the obligations of Borrower under the other Loan Documents or Indemnitor under this Indemnity, or any setoff, counterclaim, and irrespective of any other circumstances which might otherwise limit recourse against Indemnitor by Lender or constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or surety. Lender may enforce the obligations of Indemnitor under this Indemnity by a proceeding at law, in equity or otherwise, independent of any loan foreclosure or similar proceeding or any deficiency action against Borrower or any other Person at any time, either before or after an action against the Property or any part thereof, Borrower or any other Person. This Indemnity is a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely a guaranty of collection. Indemnitor waives diligence, notice of acceptance of this Indemnity, filing of claims with any court, any proceeding to enforce any provision of any other Loan Document, against Indemnitor, Borrower or any other Person, any right to require a proceeding first against Borrower or any other Person, or to exhaust any security (including, without limitation, the Property) for the performance of the obligations hereunder or any other obligations of Borrower or any other Person, or any protest, presentment, notice of default or other notice or demand whatsoever (except to the extent expressly provided to the contrary in this Indemnity).

(b) The obligations of Indemnitor under this Indemnity, and the rights of Lender to enforce the same by proceedings, whether by action at law, suit in equity or otherwise, shall not be in any way affected by any of the following:

(i) any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, receivership, conservatorship, winding up or other similar proceeding involving or affecting Borrower, the Property or any part thereof, Indemnitor or any other Person;

(ii) any failure by Lender or any other Person, whether or not without fault on its part, to perform or comply with any of the terms of the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Documents, or any document or instrument relating thereto;

9

(iii) the sale, transfer or conveyance of the Property or any interest therein to any Person, whether now or hereafter having or acquiring an interest in the Property or any interest therein and whether or not pursuant to any foreclosure, trustee sale or similar proceeding against Borrower or the Property or any interest therein;

(iv) the conveyance to Lender, any Affiliate of Lender or Lender’s nominee of the Property or any interest therein by a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure (dation en paiement);

(v) the release of Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents by operation of law or otherwise; or

(vi) the release in whole or in part of any collateral for any or all of the obligations of Indemnitor hereunder or for the Loan or any portion thereof.

(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Indemnity, Indemnitor hereby expressly and irrevocably waives all defenses in an action brought by Lender to enforce this Indemnity based on claims of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise and all setoffs, reductions, or impairments, whether arising hereunder or otherwise.

(d) Lender may deal with Borrower and Affiliates of Borrower in the same manner and as freely as if this Indemnity did not exist and shall be entitled, among other things, to grant Borrower or any other Person such extension or extensions of time to perform any act or acts as may be deemed advisable by Lender, at any time and from time to time, without terminating, affecting or impairing the validity of this Indemnity or the obligations of Indemnitor hereunder.

(e) No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal, release or other change of, or waiver, consent, delay, omission, failure to act or other action with respect to, any liability or obligation under or with respect to, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of, the Loan Documents shall in any way alter, impair or affect any of the obligations of Indemnitor hereunder, and Indemnitor agrees that if any Loan Document is modified with Lender’s consent the obligations of Indemnitor hereunder shall automatically be deemed modified to include such modifications.

(f) Lender may proceed to protect and enforce any or all of its rights under this Indemnity by suit in equity or action at law, whether for the specific performance of any covenants or agreements contained in this Indemnity or otherwise, or to take any action authorized or permitted under applicable law, and shall be entitled to require and enforce the performance of all acts and things required to be performed hereunder by Indemnitor. Each and every remedy of Lender shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.

10

(g) No waiver shall be deemed to have been made by Lender of any rights hereunder unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender and any such waiver shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific matter involved and shall in no way impair the rights of Lender or the obligations of Indemnitor to Lender in any other respect or at any other time.

(h) At the option of Lender, Indemnitor may be joined in any action or proceeding commenced by Lender against Borrower in connection with or based upon any other Loan Documents and recovery may be had against Indemnitor in such action or proceeding or in any independent action or proceeding against Indemnitor to the extent of Indemnitor’s liability hereunder, without any requirement that Lender first assert, prosecute or exhaust any remedy or claim against Borrower or any other Person, or any security for the obligations of Borrower or any other Person.

(i) Indemnitor agrees that this Indemnity shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment is made by Borrower or Indemnitor to Lender and such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Lender (as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion) upon insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, receivership, conservatorship, winding up or other similar proceeding involving or affecting Borrower or Indemnitor, all as though such payment had not been made.

(j) In the event that Indemnitor shall advance or become obligated to pay any sums under this Indemnity or in connection with the obligations hereunder or in the event that for any reason whatsoever Borrower or any subsequent owner of the Property or any part thereof is now, or shall hereafter become, indebted to Indemnitor, Indemnitor agrees that (i) the amount of such sums and of such indebtedness and all interest thereon shall at all times be subordinate as to lien, the time of payment and in all other respects to all sums, including principal and interest and other amounts, at any time owed to Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) Indemnitor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment thereof until all principal, Interest and other sums due pursuant to the Loan Documents have been paid in full. Nothing herein contained is intended or shall be construed to give Indemnitor any right of subrogation in or under the Loan Documents or any right to participate in any way therein, or in the right, title or interest of Lender in or to any collateral for the Loan, notwithstanding any payments made by Indemnitor under this Indemnity, until the actual and irrevocable receipt by Lender of payment in full of all principal, Interest and other sums due with respect to the Loan or otherwise payable under the Loan Documents. If any amount shall be paid to Indemnitor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when any such sums due and owing to Lender shall not have been fully paid, such amount shall be paid by Indemnitor to Lender for credit and application against such sums due and owing to Lender.

(k) Indemnitor’s obligations hereunder shall survive a foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or similar proceeding involving the Property and the exercise by Lender of any of all of its remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents.

Indemnitor irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such suit, action or proceeding by service of copies of such process to Indemnitor at its address provided in Section 19 hereof. Nothing in this Section 14, however, shall affect the right of Lender to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of Lender to bring any suit, action or proceeding against Indemnitor or its property in the courts of any other jurisdictions.

Indemnitor and Lender hereby confirm that it is the intention of Indemnitor and Lender that this Indemnity not constitute a fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance (a “Fraudulent Conveyance”) under the Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or any other debtor relief law or insolvency law (whether statutory, common law, case law or otherwise) or any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, the “Bankruptcy Laws”). To give effect to the foregoing intention of Indemnitor and Lender, each of such parties hereby irrevocably agrees that the obligations hereunder shall be limited to (but shall not be less than) such maximum amount as will, after giving effect to the maximum amount of such obligations and all other liabilities (whether contingent or otherwise) of Indemnitor that are relevant under such Bankruptcy Laws, result in the obligations of Indemnitor hereunder not constituting a Fraudulent Conveyance under the Bankruptcy Laws, as of the date of execution and delivery of this Indemnity.

24. Release of Indemnity. The obligations and liabilities of Indemnitor under this Indemnity shall terminate and be of no further force and effect with respect to any unasserted claim when all of the following conditions are satisfied in full: (i) Lender has not foreclosed or otherwise taken title to the Property, (ii) there has been no material change, between the date hereof and the date the Loan is paid in full, in any Environmental Law, the effect of which change would make a lender or mortgagee liable in respect to any matter for which Lender is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Indemnity, notwithstanding the fact that the Loan is paid in full, (iii) Lender shall have received, at Indemnitor’s expense, an updated environmental report dated within sixty (60) days of the requested release showing, to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender, that there exists no matter for which Lender is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Indemnity, and (iv) two (2) years have passed since date that the Loan has been paid in full. In addition, and notwithstanding that Lender may have filed a foreclosure with respect to the Property, provided such foreclosure proceeding has been dismissed or otherwise concluded with a purchaser other than Lender taking title to the Property, then, if the conditions of clauses (ii) through (iv) above are satisfied, then Lender, within ten (10) business days following Indemnitor's request, shall execute and deliver a release of this Indemnity to Indemnitor.
