SECTION 9: ADMINISTRATION OF LOAN

Subject always to the limitations of Administrative Agent’s liability, as set forth in Sections 7.11 and 12 hereof:

9.1 Administration and Limitation of Amendments by Lenders. Administrative Agent shall be the administrator of the Loan, and shall administer the Loan in accordance with the standards it applies to loans of similar size and character for its own account; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Administrative Agent shall secure the written approval of:

(a) each Lender prior to:

(i)

consenting to a change to (or otherwise changing or modifying): (A) this Section 9.1 or any of the voting thresholds under the Loan Documents or (B) the rate of interest on the Loan or the commitment fees payable from that which is presently provided for in the Loan Documents; or

(ii)

extending the maturity of the Loan or the time for any payment required under any Loan Document; or

(iii)

releasing any party liable on the Loan; or

(iv)

releasing any Collateral for the Loan, except to the extent, if any, that the Loan Documents contemplate the release of Collateral in the ordinary course of operation of the Borrower’s business; or

(v)

increasing the Loan amount above $105,000,000.00; or

(vi)

substituting any Collateral for the Loan.

(b) Required Lenders prior to:

(i)

waiving any Event of Default; or

(ii)

declaring any Event of Default or enforcing any rights of the Lenders under the Loan Documents: or

(iii)

incurring any Extraordinary Expenses in excess of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00); or

(iv)

making any Loan advances after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default; provided, however, no Lender shall have any obligations to fund into a bankruptcy even if the Lenders are willing to fund; or

(v)

changing any covenant contained in the Loan Documents or waiving any of the provisions thereof; or

(vi)

disposing of any Collateral as provided in Section 9.2; or

(vii)

changing the definition of “Adjusted Loan Amount” or “Borrowing Base,” or

(viii)

making any other amendments and/or changes to the Loan Documents.

No Proportionate Share may be increased without the consent of each affected Lender and no Lender shall modify or amend any Note without the consent of all Lenders.

9.2 Collections.

(a) Administrative Agent shall exert reasonable efforts to collect all payments due under the Loan, together with any and all other sums due or payable pursuant to the Loan Documents; and promptly upon receipt of each payment of collected funds, but no later than the next Business Day, Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender, in immediately available funds, each Lender’s Proportionate Share (determined as of the time of such payment) of:

(i) All principal and interest payments and commitment fees received by Administrative Agent, and the Proportionate Share of any letter of credit commissions due any Lender; it being understood, however, that any Lender’s share of interest received shall be based upon the amount of the total indebtedness funded by that Lender outstanding from time to time, calculated on a daily basis, based upon a 365 or 366 day year, as the actual case may be;

(ii) Any moneys or other property received upon the full or partial satisfaction of the Loan, the sale of said Loan as a unit, or the sale of any Collateral, whether in connection with a foreclosure proceeding or otherwise;

(iii) Any amounts received on any guaranty of the Loan;

(iv) Any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards received; and

(v) Any other amounts received by Administrative Agent from Borrower, whether by set-off or otherwise, in connection with the Loan.

Administrative Agent shall exert reasonable efforts to recover from Borrower all costs and expenses of collection, administration, and enforcement properly incurred which are properly reimbursable by Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this Loan Agreement, and shall remit to each Lender its Proportionate Share of such recovery to the extent that such Lender has contributed to the payment of such expenses.

9.3 Records. Administrative Agent shall at all times keep proper books of account and records at its principal office, reflecting all transactions in connection with the Loan, the

Collateral therefor, and any advances made thereunder. Such books and records shall be accessible for inspection and copying by each Lender at all reasonable times during business hours, subject always to applicable federal banking regulations. Administrative Agent will promptly forward to each Lender copies of any non-publicly available notices or financial information received by Administrative Agent from Borrower.

9.4 Expenses. If Administrative Agent incurs any Extraordinary Expenses not part of its general overhead expense (whether before or after Borrower’s default), including, without limitation, counsel fees and other expenses, or in the protection, management and preservation of the Collateral before or after default, to the extent any such expenses are reimbursable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall first demand reimbursement from the Borrower. Thereafter, each Lender will promptly reimburse Administrative Agent for Lender’s Proportionate Share of such Extraordinary Expenses; provided, however, no Lender shall be obligated to reimburse the Administrative Agent for expenses incurred by it in connection with a dispute with any Lender unless such expenses are incurred in connection with matters approved pursuant to the terms of this Section 9. It is recognized that an orderly liquidation of Collateral, or collection of the Loan, may require additional loan advances or other advances, and all such advances shall be deemed to be Extraordinary Expenses. By way of example, and not limitation, such Extraordinary Expenses shall include, but shall not be limited to, payment of rent or other obligations under any ground lease related to the Collateral required to preserve rights of Borrower or Lenders under the ground lease, payment of real estate and business assets appraisers, payment of insurance premiums, taxes and similar items.

9.5 Servicing Fee. Lenders shall pay no servicing fee to Administrative Agent for its services in administering any Lender’s Proportionate Share of the Loan.

9.6 Notice of Lenders Upon Occurrence of Certain Events. [Intentionally deleted].

9.7 Enforcement.

(a) Subject always to the provisions of subparagraph (c) hereof, upon the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Section 9.6 above, Administrative Agent shall take all reasonable and customary steps for the enforcement of the Loan that Administrative Agent would ordinarily take for such Loan if it were solely for its own account.

(b) Should the Administrative Agent acquire title to any Collateral for the Loan, either through foreclosure, sale or acceptance of deed or xxxx of sale in lieu of foreclosure, Administrative Agent shall, despite the apparent ownership of such Collateral by Administrative Agent on the public records, actually hold an undivided interest for the benefit of each Lender in the same proportion as the Proportionate Share of each Lender in the Loan at the time of such foreclosure. The disposition of any such Collateral acquired by Administrative Agent shall be made in such manner as Administrative Agent shall determine with the consent of the Required Lenders; but Administrative Agent shall exert reasonable efforts to effect the maximum benefit for all parties hereto.

(c) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to exercise its discretion to determine when and in what manner the Loan shall be enforced, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 9.1 above, it being expressly understood and agreed that, notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted in connection with the administration, enforcement or collection of the Loan, except for such as is taken or omitted as the result of Administrative Agent’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

(d) Except as may be otherwise provided herein or in the Loan Documents, any sums recovered from Borrower applicable to this Loan, whether such recovery is effected through voluntary payment, suit, foreclosure, or otherwise shall be shared by the Lenders in the following order of priority:

(i) The actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent which are reimbursable by the Borrower (but not in fact so reimbursed), including Extraordinary Expenses. If Borrower subsequently reimburses Administrative Agent after Administrative Agent has reimbursed itself from funds that would otherwise be paid to the Lenders, Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders.

(ii) The Proportionate Share of accrued and unpaid interest and commitment fees and letter of credit commissions to which Lenders are entitled pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(iii) The principal amount of the respective Proportionate Share of Lenders.

(e) Prior to taking action following any of the events specified in subparagraph (a), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to written indemnification from each Lender (on the basis of its Proportionate Share) against losses, liabilities, costs, damages and expenses which a Lender may incur or sustain as the result of taking action to enforce the Loan Documents, except for such as is a result of Administrative Agent’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Loan Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section 9.8, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section 9.8 or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (e) of this Section 9.8 (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A)

In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount (it being understood and agreed that Revolving Commitments shall be aggregated with respect to a Lender and its Approved Funds for purposes of this calculation) of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B)

in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section 9.8, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if a “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of any portion of the Revolving Credit Loan (provided, however, that simultaneous assignments shall be aggregated in respect of a Lender and its Approved Funds), unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Loan Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Revolving Commitment assigned, except that this paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section 9.8 shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate tranches on a non-pro rata basis.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section 9.8. and, in addition:

(A)	the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required for assignments if such assignment is to a Person that is not a

(B)	the consent of the Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Revolving Commitment if there is a Letter of Credit outstanding; and

(C)

the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof.

(d) Limitations Upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment hereunder than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the Participation Interest sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the Participation Interest to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Loan Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) Additional Notes. Upon any sale, if any new or additional Lender requests, a new Note evidencing the indebtedness owed by Borrower to that new or additional Lender, Borrower shall execute and deliver a Note to such Lender, which Note shall be in substantially the same form as the then existing Notes and there shall be no charge to Borrower for Lender’s attorney’s fees or other costs in connection with the Note preparation.

9.9 Adjustments.

(a) Each Lender agrees that if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily) in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Loans may exercise all rights of payment with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) [Intentionally deleted.]

(c) In addition to the foregoing, Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loan made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under Title 11 of the United States Code entitled “Bankruptcy” (as now and hereafter in effect, or any successor statute), receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, consolidation, or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder. The provisions of this Section 9.2(c) not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Loan Agreement or (b) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loan or other obligations owed to it.

9.10 Reports. Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, at such intervals as are mutually agreeable (but in any event not less frequently than two (2) Business Days after the date the Borrower makes a payment to Administrative Agent) a notice reflecting the then status of Borrower’s account with each Lender, any advances made by Administrative Agent to Borrower, and any repayments.

SECTION 10: DEFAULT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR LENDERS

10.1 Defaulting Lender.

(a) If a Defaulting Lender (i) fails to fund its Proportionate Share of any Loan advance or of any letter of credit drawing on or before the time required under this Loan Agreement and such failure continues for one (1) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has given such Defaulting Lender notice thereof, or (ii) fails to pay the Administrative Agent such Defaulting Lender’s Proportionate Share of any out-of-pocket costs, expenses or

disbursements incurred or made by Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Loan Agreement within twenty (20) days after demand, then the other parties (the “Non-Defaulting Parties”) shall have the following rights in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to them at law or in equity. The aggregate amount that any Defaulting Lender fails to pay or fund is referred to as the “Defaulted Amount.”

(b) The Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loan, including without limitation, any right to vote upon, consent to or direct any action of the Administrative Agent shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal to fund (the “Default Period”), and such rights shall not be reinstated unless and until such default is cured (and all decisions, that are subject to receiving a vote of the Required Lenders shall be approved if voted in favor of by the required percentage of the Non-Defaulting Parties, i.e., the applicable percentage of the aggregate Proportionate Shares entitled to vote); provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall continue to have all rights provided for in this Loan Agreement with respect to the administration of the Loan.

(c) Any or all of the Non-Defaulting Parties shall be entitled (but shall not be obligated) to fund the Defaulted Amount. Such Non-Defaulting Parties are referred to as the “Funding Non-Defaulting Parties.” The Defaulting Lender shall pay interest to the Funding Non-Defaulting Parties at a rate equal one percent (1%) per annum above Note Rate (hereinafter defined) (the “Default Rate”) for the period from the date on which the Funding Non-Defaulting Parties have advanced the Defaulted Amount until the date on which the Defaulting Lender repays the Defaulted Amount. The Funding Non-Defaulting Parties shall be entitled to collect such interest from amounts otherwise payable to the Defaulting Lender after crediting all interest actually paid by the Borrower on the Defaulted Amount from time to time.

(d) The Defaulting Lender’s Proportionate Share shall be subordinated to any Defaulted Amount funded by such Funding Non-Defaulting Parties, plus interest thereon, without necessity for executing any further documents. To achieve such subordination, the Administrative Agent shall apply all payments received from the Borrower, any Guarantor or from execution on the Collateral or any other source in the following manner to the extent of the available funds:

(i) to each of the Non-Defaulting Parties and Funding Non-Defaulting Parties: interest at the applicable interest rate or rates under the Notes (the “Note Rate”) due in respect of the principal amount outstanding to each Non-Defaulting Lender and Funding Non-Defaulting Lender, including interest at the Note Rate on the Defaulted Amount advanced by such Funding Non-Defaulting Parties;

(ii) to each of the Funding Non-Defaulting Parties: interest at the Default Rate on the Defaulted Amount advanced by such Funding Non-Defaulting Lender, which the Administrative Agent shall set off from the interest due to the Defaulting Lender on its subordinated Proportionate Share;

(iii) to the Defaulting Lender: interest at the Note Rate due in respect of the Defaulting Lender’s amount outstanding after deduction of the interest payable in the preceding clause (ii);

(iv) to each of the Non-Defaulting Parties: principal to the extent of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s adjusted Proportionate Share in the principal payment;

(v) to each of the Funding Non-Defaulting Parties: principal to the extent of such Funding Non-Defaulting Lender’s Proportionate Share of the funded Defaulted Amount until the remaining Defaulted Amount has been repaid in full;

(vi) to the Defaulting Lender: principal to the extent of the Defaulting Lender’s Proportionate Share.

(e) Upon advance of the full Defaulted Amount, with interest to the Funding Non-Defaulting Parties at the Default Rate and any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or Funding Non-Defaulting Parties as a result of the Defaulting Lender’s default, the Defaulting Lender’s Proportionate Share shall no longer be subordinated hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default exists during a Default Period, no Defaulting Lender will receive any interest or principal payment on its Proportionate Share during such coexisting Event of Default and Default Period until the Non-Defaulting Parties have been repaid in full.

(f) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to waive, diminish or limit, or prevent or estop any party from exercising or enforcing, any rights or remedies that may be available at law or in equity as a result of or in connection with any default under this Loan Agreement by a party. In addition, no party shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender if such party refuses to fund its Proportionate Share of any advance that other parties may, in their sole discretion, elect to make after any bankruptcy-related Event of Default under this Loan Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything in the above section to the contrary, at no time may a Defaulting Lender’s commitment be increased or extended without Defaulting Lender’s consent.

10.2 Purchase Upon Defaulting Lender’s Failure to Fund. If the Default Period continues for more than ninety (90) days, any time thereafter during the continuation of the Default Period, the Non-Defaulting Parties have a further right to purchase the Defaulting Lender’s entire Proportionate Share in the Loan, and the Loan Documents (the “Purchased Interest”). The Non-Defaulting Parties may exercise such purchase option by giving written notice (the “Purchase Notice”) to the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) Business Days of receiving a copy of the Administrative Agent’s Notice. Within three (3) Business Days of receipt of the Purchase Notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Defaulting Lender of the exercise of the purchase option by the Non-Defaulting Parties in writing and the purchase shall then take place in accordance with Sections 10.3 and 10.4 hereof. Each of the Non-Defaulting Parties that exercised the right to purchase shall participate in the purchase of the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the same proportion as such Non-Defaulting Lender’s respective

Proportionate Share bears to the respective Proportionate Shares of the other Non-Defaulting Parties.

10.3 Purchase Price Payable by the Non-Defaulting Parties. The purchase price to be paid by the Non-Defaulting Parties collectively to the Defaulting Lender for the Purchased Interest shall be an amount equal to: (i) the principal amount of the Defaulting Lender’s amount outstanding, together with any accrued but unpaid interest from the Borrower thereon; plus (ii) any amounts that are payable by the Administrative Agent to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Loan Agreement; minus (iii) the Defaulting Lender’s Proportionate Share in all costs, expenses and other amounts (less any portion thereof that was previously paid by the Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent) paid by the Administrative Agent which, pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Documents, are payable, but not yet paid, by the Borrower, and any other amounts that are payable by the Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Loan Agreement. If the Administrative Agent subsequently collects from the Borrower such costs, expenses and other amounts, the Administrative Agent will pay to the Defaulting Lender its Proportionate Share (calculated as of the day prior to completion of the sale contemplated under Section 10.2 hereof) in such collections. An example of amounts within the meaning of clause (iii) above would be amounts paid by the Administrative Agent for attorneys’ fees in amending or enforcing the Loan Documents, which amounts the Borrower had agreed to pay in the Loan Documents, but did not pay and for which the Defaulting Lender had not paid its Proportionate Share to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall use good faith efforts to collect from the Borrower the costs, expenses and other amounts described in clause (iii) above (including the costs, expenses and other amounts that did not reduce the purchase price but for which the Defaulting Lender paid its Proportionate Share to the Administrative Agent).

10.4 Consummation of Purchase. The purchase of the Purchased Interest shall occur on a date selected by the Non-Defaulting Parties, which date shall be not later than ten (10) Business Days after written notice by the Administrative Agent to the Defaulting Lender of the exercise of the option to purchase by the Non-Defaulting Parties. The purchase price paid by the Non-Defaulting Parties to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 10 shall be paid on such date in immediately available funds, and concurrently therewith the Defaulting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Non-Defaulting Parties documents reasonably satisfactory to the Non-Defaulting Parties, assigning to the Non-Defaulting Parties the Defaulting Lender’s Purchased Interest, without covenant or warranty, express or implied, except that the Defaulting Lender shall warrant its ownership of the Purchased Interest, the amount of indebtedness outstanding thereunder, and its authority and capacity to execute and deliver such documents. Also concurrently therewith, the Non-Defaulting Parties shall execute and deliver to the Defaulting Lender documents reasonably satisfactory to the Defaulting Lender, assuming the Purchased Interest and releasing and holding harmless the Defaulting Lender from all liability, damages, costs and expenses with respect to the making of the Loan arising in connection with events or circumstances occurring after the date of such purchase and sale. To the extent a Non-Defaulting Lender acquires all or any portion of a Purchased Interest, such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Proportionate Share shall thereafter be increased to include such portion of such Purchased Interest so acquired. Nothing contained in this Section 10.4 shall preclude the Non-Defaulting Parties from exercising any or all rights and remedies that such

Non-Defaulting Parties may have, as set forth herein or otherwise, with respect to or against any Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 11: LETTERS OF CREDIT

11.1 Letter of Credit Participation.

(a) The Administrative Agent irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each Lender, and, to induce the Administrative Agent to issue letters of credit under this Loan Agreement, each Lender irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Administrative Agent, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such Lender’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such Lender’s Proportionate Share of the letter of credit sublimit described in this Loan Agreement in the Administrative Agent’s obligations and rights under each letter of credit issued under this Loan Agreement and the amount of each draft paid by the Administrative Agent thereunder. Administrative Agent shall promptly after such issuance (or renewal or release) execute and deliver to each Lender a certificate of participation, if requested by the Lender confirming the date of issue, amount, expiry (including any renewals), beneficiary, and reference number of each letter of credit issued and outstanding. Each Lender unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Administrative Agent that, if a draft is paid under any letter of credit for which the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement or the reimbursement agreements executed by the Borrower at the time of issuance of the letter of credit, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand an amount equal to such Lender’s Proportionate Share of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed; providedthat no Lender shall be required to pay more than such Lender’s Proportionate Share in the letter of credit sublimit or, in any event, more than such Lender’s available commitment amount. The obligation of each Lender to pay such amount shall be unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent) and may not be terminated, suspended or delayed for any reason, including any Event of Default.

(b) With respect to payment to the Administrative Agent of the unreimbursed amounts described in this Section 11.1(b) when a Lender receives demand from the Administrative Agent on any Business Day, such payment shall be due no later than 2:00 p.m. (Chattanooga time) on the following Business Day. If any such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent after the date such payment is due, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, in addition to such amount, interest on such past due payment at the Federal Funds Effective Rate (hereinafter defined) from the date such payment is due to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 11.1(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. “Federal Funds Effective Rate” means, for any day, an interest rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by Federal funds brokers on such day, as published for such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, for the immediately preceding Business Day) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or, if such rate is not so published for any day that is a Business Day, the average of the

quotations at approximately 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on such day on such transactions received by the Administrative Agent from three (3) Federal funds brokers of recognized standing selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the Administrative Agent has made payment under any letter of credit and has received from any Lender its Proportionate Share of such payment in accordance with this Section 11.1(c), the Administrative Agent receives any payment related to such letter of credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Proportionate Share thereof not later than two (2) Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof; provided that in the event that any such payment received by the Administrative Agent shall be required to be returned by the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall return to the Administrative Agent the portion thereof previously distributed by the Administrative Agent to it.

SECTION 12: AGENCY PROVISIONS

12.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints First Tennessee Bank National Association to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 12 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor shall have rights as a third party beneficiary to any of such provisions.

12.2 Nature of Duties. None of the Lenders, or the Administrative Agent or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Loan Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 12 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Loan provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

12.3 Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(i)	shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)

shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

(iii)

shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or Guarantor or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary); or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or bad faith.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Loan Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

12.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the

Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

12.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower or Guarantor referring to this Loan Agreement, describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders except to the extent that this Loan Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Required Lenders, or all of the Lenders, as the case may be.

12.6 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Loan Agreement. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Loan Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

12.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, in its capacity hereunder, and their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or Guarantor and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower or Guarantor to do so), ratably according to their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 12, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the

payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of any Loan Document or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the Transactions or any action taken or omitted by any such indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting from such indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or bad faith, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 12 shall survive the termination of this Loan Agreement and payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

12.8 Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or Guarantor or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

12.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, or an Affiliate of any such bank. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 12.9. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 12.9). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower

and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section and Section 13.13 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Any resignation by First Tennessee Bank National Association, as Administrative Agent, pursuant to this Section 12 shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender; (b) the retiring Issuing Lender shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; and (c) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit.

12.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

(a) The Lenders irrevocably authorize and direct the Administrative Agent:

(i)

to release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (A) upon termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all Borrower or Guarantor Revolving Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (or the cash collateralization thereof) or (B) that is transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted hereunder;

(ii)	to release the Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Guarantor as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

(b) In connection with a termination or release pursuant to this Section 12, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to the Borrower or Guarantor, at the Borrower’s expense, all documents that the Borrower or Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Collateral, or to release the Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 12.

SECTION 13: MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Amendments. Subject the provisions of Section 9.1 hereof, the provisions of this Loan Agreement, any Note, the CBL Mortgage or any instrument or document executed

pursuant hereto or securing the indebtednesses may be amended or modified only by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto and thereto.

13.2 Notices. All notices and other communications (including (i) solicitations of the consent of the Lenders or Required Lenders, as applicable, (ii) indications of satisfaction and/or acceptability by the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, and (iii) notices to and directions from the Required Lenders) provided for hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed, certified mail, return receipt requested, or delivered, if to Borrower, to it at c/o CBL & Associates Properties, Inc., CBL Center, Suite 500, 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000-0000, Attention: President, with a copy to Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xx.; if to Administrative Agent, to it at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, and to Construction Loan Management, 0000 Xxxxxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000, and to the Lenders, to them at their addresses set forth in Schedule 2.1, or as to any such person at such other address as shall be designated by such person in a written notice to the other parties hereto complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 13.2. All such notices and other communications shall be effective (i) if mailed, when received or three (3) Business Days after mailing, whichever is earlier; or (ii) if delivered, upon delivery and receipt of an executed acknowledgment of receipt by the party to whom delivery is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall not be required to send a copy of any notice or communication to Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xx. but Administrative Agent will use good faith efforts to copy Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xx. on any such notices or communications via regular mail, fax or email. Upon receipt from Borrower or any Lender of any change to its respective notice address, Administrative Agent may, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Loan Agreement, make that change without the consent of the Lenders, but shall notify the Borrower and Lenders of such change.

13.3 No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Waiver of any right, power, or privilege hereunder or under any instrument or document now or hereafter securing the indebtedness evidenced hereby or under any guaranty at any time given with respect thereto is a waiver only as to the specified item. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

13.4 Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender, Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, partners, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents (each, an “indemnified Person”) from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, growing out of or resulting from this Loan Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Loan Agreement), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting solely and directly from such indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or bad faith. The indemnification provided for in this Section shall survive the payment in full of the Loan. Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders and to hold Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless from any loss or expense that such Administrative

Agent or Lenders may sustain or incur as a consequence of a default by Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from an advance bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate after Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Loan Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither Parent nor Borrower shall assert, and each of Parent and Borrower hereby waives, any claim against each indemnified Person, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefore is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Loan Agreement or any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Revolving Credit Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and Parent and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any such claims or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

13.5 Survival of Agreements. All agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the delivery of the Notes. This Loan Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest therein.

13.6 Governing Law. This Loan Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Tennessee; except (a) that the provisions hereof which relate to the payment of interest shall be governed by (i) the laws of the United States or, (ii) the laws of the State of Tennessee, whichever permits Lenders to charge the higher rate, as more particularly set out in the Notes, and (b) to the extent that the Liens in favor of Administrative Agent, the perfection thereof, and the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent with respect thereto, shall, under mandatory provisions of law, be governed by the laws of a state other than Tennessee.

13.7 Execution in Counterparts. This Loan Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

13.8 Terminology; Section Headings. All personal pronouns used in this Loan Agreement whether used in the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender, shall include all other genders; the singular shall include the plural, and vice versa. Section headings are for convenience only and neither limit nor amplify the provisions of this Loan Agreement.

13.9 Enforceability of Agreement. Should any one or more of the provisions of this Loan Agreement be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, all other provisions, nevertheless, shall remain effective and binding on the parties hereto.

13.10 Interest Limitations.

(a) The Loan and the Notes evidencing the Loan, including any renewals or extensions thereof, may provide for the payment of any interest rate (i) permissible at the time the contract to make the Loan is executed, (ii) permissible at the time the Loan is made or any

advance thereunder is made, or (iii) permissible at the time of any renewal or extension of the loan or any Note.

(b) It is the intention of Lenders and Borrower to comply strictly with applicable usury laws; and, accordingly, in no event and upon no contingency shall Lenders ever be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as interest any interest, fees, charges or other payments equivalent to interest, in excess of the maximum rate which Lenders may lawfully charge under applicable statutes and laws from time to time in effect; and in the event that the holder of the Note ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such amount which, but for this provision, would be excessive interest, shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount of the indebtedness thereby evidenced; and if the principal amount of the indebtedness evidenced thereby, and all lawful interest thereon, is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Borrower or other party lawfully entitled thereto. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the highest rate which Lenders may lawfully charge under applicable law from time to time in effect, Borrower and Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, characterize any non-principal payment as a reasonable loan charge, rather than as interest. Any provision hereof, or of any other agreement between Lenders and Borrower, that operates to bind, obligate, or compel Borrower to pay interest in excess of such maximum rate shall be construed to require the payment of the maximum rate only. The provisions of this paragraph shall be given precedence over any other provision contained herein or in any other agreement between Lenders and Borrower that is in conflict with the provisions of this paragraph.

The Notes shall be governed and construed according to the statutes and laws of the State of Tennessee from time to time in effect, except to the extent that Section 85 of Title 12 of the United States Code (or other applicable federal statue) may permit the charging of a higher rate of interest than applicable state law, in which event such applicable federal statute, as amended and supplemented from time to time shall govern and control the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged hereunder; it being intended that, as to the maximum rate of interest which may be charged, received, and collected hereunder, those applicable statutes and laws, whether state or federal, from time to time in effect, which permit the charging of a higher rate of interest, shall govern and control; provided, always, however, that in no event and under no circumstances shall Borrower be liable for the payment of interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by such applicable law, from time to time in effect.

13.11 Non-Control. In no event shall Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights hereunder be deemed to indicate that any of them are in control of the business, management or properties of Borrower and/or any Related Entity or have power over the daily management functions and operating decisions made by Borrower and/or any Related Entity.

13.12 Loan Review; Extensions of Termination Date; Continuing Security.

(a) At least ninety (90) days prior to June 1, 2012, Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent in writing whether it desires to extend the existing Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan for an additional twelve (12) months beyond the existing Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan.

(b) The specific Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan mentioned in Article One may be extended for an additional period of one (1) year. On or before June 1, 2012, if the Loan remains unpaid, Lenders shall review the performance of the Loan. If Lenders deem performance of the Loan acceptable, they will renew the Loan for one (1) year from the then existing Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan. If Lenders renew the Loan at anytime or from time to time prior to June 1, 2012, Lenders and Borrower agree the Loan shall be renewed with covenants as contained in Section 7 of this Loan Agreement and such other covenants, terms and conditions as may be mutually agreed upon by Borrower and Lenders. If Lenders deem performance of the Loan not acceptable, Lenders shall not be obligated to extend the Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan. Assessment of performance and the decision whether to extend the Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan (from June 1, 2013 to June 1, 2014) shall be solely within each Lender’s discretion. Lenders will not deem the performance of the Loan acceptable unless and until Borrower provides to Lenders, among other things, updated title commitments with respect to all properties covered by any CBL Mortgage, which title commitments must be in form and substance acceptable to Lenders and must contain no exceptions unacceptable to Lenders. Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of the results of the Lenders’ review of the Loan no later than eleven (11) months prior to the then effective Termination Date of the Revolving Credit Loan. If all Lenders elect not to renew the Loan, Lenders shall not perform or cause to be performed, except at Lenders’ expense, unless an Event of Default has occurred, any inspections, appraisals, surveys or similar items between: (a) the date notice thereof is given Borrower or the Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan, whichever first occurs, and (b) the date the Note is to be repaid as provided therein. In the event the Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan is not extended, Borrower may elect either to: (i) continue to use the Loan evidenced by the Note subject to the terms and provisions of this Loan Agreement in which event the principal balance due, together with all accrued interest, shall be payable in full at the Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan existing at the time Lenders elect not to extend the then existing Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan; or (ii) cap the Loan at its then existing outstanding principal balance and continue to pay interest only monthly for a six (6) month period, such interest payments being due and payable on the fifth (5th) day of each month thereafter, then at the conclusion of the six (6) month period amortize the then outstanding principal balance of the loan over an eighteen (18) month period with the principal being due in equal quarterly installments on the fifth (5th) day of each quarter thereafter with accrued interest being payable monthly on the fifth (5th) day of the month, with all principal and accrued interest being due and payable in full at the end of the eighteen (18) month period. Anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding: (a) upon any such extension, Borrower agrees to pay to Lenders agreeing to extend (in addition to the commitment fees it has previously paid under this Loan Agreement) an extension fee of Two Hundred Sixty-Two Thousand Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($262,500.00); and (b) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall be required to extend the maturity of a Loan.

(c) Upon the specific Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan so fixed in Article One, or in the event of the extension of this Loan Agreement to a subsequent Termination Date of Revolving Credit Loan (when no effective extension is in force), the Revolving Credit Loan and all other extensions of credit (unless sooner declared to be due and payable by Lenders pursuant to the provisions hereof), and subject to Borrower’s election as set forth in

subparagraph (a) above, shall become due and payable for all purposes. Until all such indebtednesses, liabilities and obligations secured by the CBL Mortgage are satisfied in full, such termination shall not affect the security interest granted to Administrative Agent pursuant to the CBL Mortgage, nor the duties, covenants, and obligations of Borrower therein and in this Loan Agreement; and all of such duties, covenants and obligations shall remain in full force and effect until the Revolving Credit Loan and all obligations under this Loan Agreement have been fully paid and satisfied in all respects.

13.13 Fees and Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay, or reimburse Lenders for, the reasonable actual third party out-of-pocket expenses, including counsel fees and fees of any accountants, inspectors or other similar experts, as deemed necessary by Lenders, incurred by Lenders in connection with the development, preparation, execution, amendment, recording, (excluding the salary and expenses of Lenders’ employees and Lenders’ normal and usual overhead expenses) or enforcement of, or the preservation of any rights under this Loan Agreement, the Notes, and any instrument or document now or hereafter securing the and Revolving Credit Loan indebtednesses.

13.14 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Loan Agreement, the Notes, and the other instruments and documents executed and delivered in connection herewith.

13.15 Compromises, Releases, Etc. Guarantor agrees Administrative Agent is hereby authorized from time to time, without notice to Guarantor, to make any sales, pledges, surrenders, compromises, settlements, releases, indulgences, alterations, substitutions, exchanges, changes in, modifications, or other dispositions including, without limitation, cancellations, of all or any part of the Loan indebtedness, or of any contract or instrument evidencing any thereof, or of any security or collateral therefor, and/or to take any security for or guaranties upon any of said indebtedness; and the liability of any guarantor, if any, shall not be in any manner affected, diminished, or impaired thereby, or by any lack of diligence, failure, neglect, or omission on the part of Administrative Agent to make any demand or protest, or give any notice of dishonor or default, or to realize upon or protect any of said indebtedness or any collateral or security therefor. Guarantor agrees Administrative Agent shall have the right to apply such payments and credits first to the payment of all its expenses, including costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, then to interest due under the Notes and then to principal due under the Notes. Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation, at any time, to first resort to, make demand on, file a claim against, or exhaust its remedies against Borrower or its property or estate, or to resort to or exhaust its remedies against any collateral, security, property, liens, or other rights whatsoever. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Guarantor agrees Administrative Agent may at any time make demand for payment on, or bring suit against, Borrower and any guarantor, jointly or severally and may compromise with any of them for such sums or on such terms as it may see fit, and without notice or consent, the same being hereby expressly waived.

13.16 Joinder of Parent. Parent joins herein for the purpose of acknowledging and consenting to the terms and provisions hereof and agreeing to those which specifically apply to the Parent.

13.17 Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ Consent. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, in any instance hereunder where Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ approval or consent is required or the exercise of its judgment is required, the granting or denial of such approval or consent and the exercise of such judgment shall be within the sole but reasonable discretion of Administrative Agent or Lenders, as applicable, and Administrative Agent and/or Lenders shall not, for any reason or to any extent, be required to grant such approval or consent or exercise such judgment; provided that Administrative Agent and Lenders shall proceed at all times in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

13.18 Venue of Actions. As an integral part of the consideration for the making of the loan, it is expressly understood and agreed that no suit or action shall be commenced by Borrower, Related Entities, CBL Holdings, Parent, by any guarantor, or by any successor, personal representative or assignee of any of them, with respect to the loan contemplated hereby, or with respect to this Loan Agreement or any other document or instrument which now or hereafter evidences or secures all or any part of the loan indebtedness, other than in a state court of competent jurisdiction in and for the County of the State in which the principal place of business of Administrative Agent is situated, or in the United States District Court for the District in which the principal place of business of Administrative Agent is situated, and not elsewhere. Nothing in this paragraph contained shall prohibit Administrative Agent from instituting suit in any court of competent jurisdiction for the enforcement of its rights hereunder or in any other document or instrument which evidences or secures the loan indebtedness.

13.19 Waiver of Right to Trial By Jury. EACH PARTY TO THIS LOAN AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (a) ARISING UNDER THIS LOAN AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR (b) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS LOAN AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS LOAN AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

13.20 Conflict. In the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and any other Loan Document during the continuance of this Loan Agreement the provisions of this Loan Agreement shall control.

13.21 Purchase of Lenders’ Proportionate Share of Loan. Administrative Agent reserves the right, at any time after one (1) year from the date hereof, and upon twenty (20) days’ prior written notice to any Lender, to purchase any Lender’s Proportionate Share of the Loan, for

a purchase price equal to the then outstanding principal balance thereof, plus all accrued interest thereon to the date of purchase, plus all reasonable unreimbursed expenses which have been actually incurred by such Lender to the date of purchase and approved in advance by the Administrative Agent, less the amount of Lender’s Proportionate Share of outstanding unpaid Extraordinary Expenses (subject to the provisions of Section 9 above) which have been incurred or accrued to the date of purchase; provided however, when and if Administrative Agent receives reimbursement from the Borrower for any of the Extraordinary Expenses paid by a Lender, each Lender’s Proportionate Share of those reimbursed expenses shall be promptly refunded to each Lender even if such reimbursement occurs after purchase. Upon any such purchase, neither party shall thereafter have any liability or obligation to the other arising out of Loans to the Borrower made subsequent to the date of purchase.

13.22 USA Patriot Act Notice and Compliance. The USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56) and federal regulations issued with respect thereto require all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies individuals or business entities which open an “account” with such financial institution. Consequently, Administrative Agent may from time to time request, and Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent, Borrower’s, Parent’s, each guarantor’s and each other Loan Party’s name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for Administrative Agent to comply with federal law. An “account” for this purpose may include, without limitation, a deposit account, cash management service, a transaction or asset account, a credit account, a loan or other extension of credit, and/or other financial services product.

13.23 Change in Law. The occurrence, after the date of this Loan Agreement, of any of the following: (a) the adoption or taking effect of any law, rule, regulation or treaty by any Governmental Authority, (b) any change in any law, rule, regulation or treaty or in the administration, interpretation, implementation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or (c) the making or issuance of any request, rule, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any Governmental Authority; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Administrative Agent for International settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

13.24 Additional Costs, Etc. If any Change in Law shall:

(a) subject any Lender or the Administrative Agent to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this Loan Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Letters of Credit, any Revolving Commitment or the Loan (other than Taxes covered by Section 5.6), or

(b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for changes in taxes on income or profits) of payments to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on the Loan or any other

amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

(c) impose or increase or render applicable (other than to the extent specifically provided for elsewhere in this Loan Agreement) any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or letters of credit issued by, or commitments of an office of any Lender, or

(d) impose on any Lender or the Administrative Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Letters of Credit, the Loan, any Revolving Commitment, or any class of loans, letters of credit or commitments of which the Loan or any Revolving Commitment forms a part;

and the result of any of the foregoing is:

(i) to increase the cost to any Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any part of the Loan or such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or any Letter of Credit, or

(ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to such Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, any Letter of Credit or the Loans;

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, within thirty (30) days after notice by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (such notice to be given promptly by the Administrative Agent or such Lender upon the making of any such determination), at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender such additional amounts as the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall determine in good faith to be sufficient to compensate the Administrative Agent or such Lender for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum; provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender is generally imposing similar charges on its other similarly situated borrowers.

13.25 Non-Recourse. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED IN THIS LOAN AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, LENDERS EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT PAYMENT OF ALL PRINCIPAL, INTEREST AND OTHER AMOUNTS (INCLUDING COSTS AND EXPENSES) DUE AND PERFORMANCE OF ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES UNDER THIS LOAN AGREEMENT BY CBL HOLDINGS I, INC., IN ITS CAPACITY AS THE GENERAL PARTNER OF BORROWER, SHALL BE NON-RECOURSE AS TO SUCH GENERAL PARTNER.

13.26 No Fiduciary Duty. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this Section, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of Parent, Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries (collectively, solely for purposes of this Section, the “Credit Parties” and each a “Credit Party”), their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Credit Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise

will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliate, on the other. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s length commercial transactions between the Lender, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect thereto) or the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Credit Party) except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (v) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other person. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that any lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

13.27 Clarification regarding Communications. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Loan Agreement to the contrary all communications and information required from Borrower under this Loan Agreement shall be made to Administrative Agent only and Administrative Agent shall forward those communications and information to the Lenders, and all communications from Administrative Agent and/or any Lender intended for Borrower and related to the Loan shall be made by the Lender to Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall forward same to Borrower.
