produce amounts at least equal to the taxes, assessments, and insurance premiums
to be paid. The reserve funds shall be held by Lender as a general deposit from
Grantor, which Lender may satisfy by payment of the taxes, assessments, and
insurance premiums required to be paid by Grantor as they become due. Lender
shall have the right to draw upon the reserve funds to pay such items, and
Lender shall not be required to determine the validity or accuracy of any item
before paying it. Nothing In the Mortgage shall be construed as requiring Lender
to advance other monies for such purposes, and Lender shall not incur any
liability for anything it may do or omit to do with respect to the reserve
account. Subject to any limitations set by applicable law, if the reserve funds
disclose a shortage or deficiency, Grantor shall pay such shortage or deficiency
as required by Lender. All amounts in the reserve account are hereby pledged to
further secure the indebtedness, and Lender is hereby authorized to withdraw and
apply such amounts on the Indebtedness upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default. Lender shall not be required to pay any interest or earnings on the
reserve funds unless required by law or agreed to by Lender in writing. Lender
is not Grantor's agent for payment of the taxes and assessments required to be
paid by Grantor.

Note's maturity. Ths Mortgage also will secure payment of these amounts. The

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which Lender, Borrower
and Lessee acknowledge, LENDER, BORROWER and LESSEE AGREE:
1. Subordination. In consideration for Lender's agreements set forth in
-------------
Section 3 of this Agreement, Lessee and Borrower agree that to the extent that
they pertain to the Premises, the Lease, and the rights of Lessee under the
Lease and to the Premises, are and shall remain subject, subordinate and junior
to the lien created by the Mortgage, and to the rights and interests of Lender,
its successors and assigns under the documents providing evidence of and
security for the Loan (collectively, the "Loan Documents").
2. Purchase Options. Any acquisition of title to the Property made by
----------------
Lessee during the term of the Mortgage pursuant to any option or right contained
in the Lease to acquire title to all or a portion of the Property shall be made
subject to the
-1-
Mortgage.
3. Nondisturbance. Provided that no event of default by Lessee has occurred
--------------
under the Lease which remains uncured beyond any applicable cure period, Lender
shall not diminish or interfere with Lessee's possession, use or occupancy of
the Premises, or Lessee's rights and privileges under the Lease, and Lender
shall not disturb Lessee's occupancy of the Premises during the current term of
the Lease.
4. Lessee not to be Joined in Foreclosure. Lender will not join Lessee as a
--------------------------------------
named-party in a foreclosure of the Mortgage unless such Joinder is necessary to
foreclose the Mortgage, and then only to foreclose the Mortgage, and not for the
purpose of terminating the Lease unless an event of default by Lessee has
occurred under the Lease and continues beyond any cure period.
5. Attornment. If Lender forecloses the Mortgage, or obtains Borrower's
----------
interest through a proceeding in lieu of foreclosure or pursuant to a
foreclosure, or by any other manner, Lender shall have all of the rights of
Borrower as landlord under the Lease, to the extent they pertain to the
Premises, and may rely on all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the

Lender succeeding to the interest of Borrower under the Lease, and such
attornment shall occur without the execution of any further instruments by any
of the parties to this Agreement. However, Lessee shall have no obligation to
pay rent to Lender until Lessee receives written notice from Lender that Lender
has either (i) succeeded to Borrower's interest under the Lease, or (ii) has
exercised its rights under an assignment of leases contained in the Loan
Documents. Lessee shall have all of its rights and obligations under the Lease
during any such period of attornment.

act or omission of any prior landlord, including Borrower; (b) subject to any
offsets or defenses which Lessee might have against any prior landlord,
including Borrower; (c) bound by any rent or additional rents which Lessee might
have paid for any rental period, other than the rental period in effect at the
time of such succession; or (d) bound by any material amendment or material
modification of the Lease made without Lender's consent (which consent will not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed). For purposes of (d), an amendment or
modification will be deemed material if it increases the landlord's obligations
under the lease in any material respect or diminishes, reduces, eliminates or
terminates any
-2-
obligation of Lessee in any material respect or attempts to terminate or shorten
the term of the Lease. Upon the occurrence of an event of default by Borrower
under the Lease, or any other event or occurrence that would give rise to an
offset against rent or a claim against Borrower under the Lease, Lessee shall;
(x) use its best efforts to set off such default against rents currently due
Borrower if permitted under the Lease; (y) give Lender notice of such default or
occurrence in the manner provided in this Agreement; and (z) give Lender such
time as is reasonable to cure such default or rectify such occurrence, provided
Lender notifies Lessee of its intent to cure such default within 30 days after
receipt of written notice from Lessee of default by Borrower under the Lease,
and proceeds diligently to cure such default. Notwithstanding any provision of
the Lease or any other instrument to the contrary, Lessee may not cancel the
Lease, claim an offset against rent, or exercise any right or remedy, until
Lender has been given notice and an opportunity to cure the default, but Lessee
may seek a personal judgment against
Borrower for damages suffered as a result of such claimed default. Lessee will
not pay any rent under the Lease more than 30 days in advance of its due date,
or materially amend or materially modify the Lease (as provided in subsection
(d) above).
7. Assignment of Lease. Borrower has, by a separate Assignment of Leases
-------------------
("Assignment"), assigned its interest in the rents and payments due under the
Lease, to the extent they pertain to the Premises, as security for the repayment
of the Loan. Lessee acknowledges and consents to such Assignment. All rents due
under the Lease, to the extent they pertain to the Premises, shall be paid to
Borrower so long as no event of default has occurred by Borrower under the Loan
Documents. Lender may, at its option, require that Lessee pay all rents and
other payments due under the Lease, to the extent they pertain to the Premises,
directly to Lender. Borrower authorizes and directs Lessee, and Lessee agrees,
to pay any payments due under the terms of the Lease, to the extent they pertain
to the Premises, to Lender upon notification that Lender has exercised such
option. The Assignment does not diminish any obligation of Borrower under the
Lease or impose any such obligation on Lender until Lender succeeds to the
interest of Borrower as described in section 5.
8. Successor and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon Lender,
---------------------
Borrower and Lessee, and each of their heirs, administrators, representatives,
successors and assigns, and all parties having an interest in the Lease, and

enforce any of the terms of this Assignment, Lender shall be entitled to
recover such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as attorneys' fees at

month after that. Borrower's final payment, due March 31, 2006, will be for all
principal and all accrued Interest not yet paid. Payments Include principal and
Interest. The annual interest rate for this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis;

number of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at

notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon
Borrower's request. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on
other rates as well. The Interest rate change will not occur more often than
once each month. The Index currently is 8.000% per annum. The Interest rate to

to the Index, resulting in an Initial rate of 8.000% per annum. NOTICE: Under no
circumstances will the Interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate
allowed by applicable law. Whenever Increases occur in the interest rate,
Lender, at its option, may do one or more of the following: (a) increase
Borrower's payments to ensure Borrower's loan will pay off by its original final
maturity date, (b) increase Borrower's payments to cover accruing interest. (c)

at the same amount and increase Borrower's final payment.
