(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.06(a) hereof and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand, and the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days of demand, such corresponding amount with Interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to the applicable Borrowing.

In such event, the Borrowers shall, at their sole cost and expense, prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and Interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04 hereof) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

The applicable LIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) The Borrowers shall pay Additional Interest as and when provided herein, and in the event any Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement is in effect, in such Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement.

SECTION 2.14. Unavailability of LIBOR. If prior to the commencement of any LIBOR Rate Period for a Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such LIBOR Rate Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that LIBOR for such LIBOR Rate Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such LIBOR Rate Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy, as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, the LIBOR Rate for such Borrowing shall be deemed to be equal to the Base Rate.

SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs and Capital Adequacy.

(a) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent additional amounts as the Administrative Agent shall determine will compensate Lenders for costs incurred in maintaining the Loans or any portion thereof outstanding or for the reduction of any amounts received or receivable as a result of any change in any applicable law, regulation or treaty, or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any domestic or foreign governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law), or by any domestic or foreign court, (i) changing the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender (other than taxes imposed on all or any portion of the overall net income of any Lender by the United States or by any political subdivision or taxing authority of the United States or by any foreign governmental authority), (ii) imposing, modifying or applying any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds for loans by any Lender (whether directly, indirectly or on a portfolio wide basis), (iii) imposing on any Lender any other condition affecting any Notes or the Loans.

(b) If any Lender shall determine that (i) any change in the application of any law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted or arising out of the July 1988 report of the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards,” including the draft Capital Accord currently proposed to replace such report, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any domestic or foreign governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, (ii) any change in or adoption of any other law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or (iii) compliance by any Lender, or any lending office of any Lender, or the holding company of any Lender, with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency based on any such change or adoption, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital to a level below that which such Lender would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent such additional amounts as will compensate Lenders for such actual reduction with respect to any portion of the Loans outstanding.

(c) Any amount payable by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.15(a) or (b) hereof shall be paid to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days of receipt by the Administrative Borrower of a certificate of the Administrative Agent setting forth the amount due and the Administrative Agent’s basis for the determination of such amount, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers absent manifest error. Failure on the part of the Administrative Agent to demand payment from the Administrative Borrower or any other Borrower for any such amount attributable to any particular period shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s right to demand payment of such amount for any subsequent or prior period.

SECTION 2.16. Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers. Subject to Section 9.16 hereof:

(a) Each Borrower is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Financing Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.

(b) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 2.16), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.

(c) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.

(d) The Obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of this Section 2.16 constitute the absolute and unconditional Obligations of each Borrower enforceable against each Borrower, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other circumstances whatsoever.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any Loans or other financial accommodations issued under or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Financing Documents, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement or any other Financing Document, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement or any other Financing Document. Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance

of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by the Administrative Agent or Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by the Administrative Agent or Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.16 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 2.16, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of such Borrower under this Section 2.16 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.16 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, constitution or place of formation of any Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(f) Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and Lenders that such Borrower is currently informed of the financial condition of the other Borrowers and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Borrower further represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and Lenders that such Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Financing Documents. Each Borrower hereby covenants that such Borrower will continue to keep informed of the other Borrowers’ financial condition, the financial condition of the Guarantors and other guarantors, if any, and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.

(g) Each Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed such Person’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against any other Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor.

(h) If a payment shall be made by any Borrower (the “Claiming Borrower”) to satisfy an Obligation owing by any other Borrower, each other Borrower (a “Contributing Borrower”) shall indemnify the Claiming Borrower in an amount equal to the amount of such payment multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Borrower on the date hereof (or with respect to any Person that becomes a Borrower after the date hereof, on the date that such Person becomes a Borrower) and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of each Borrower on the date hereof (or with

respect to any Person that becomes a Borrower after the date hereof, on the date that such Person becomes a Borrower); provided, however, that all rights of each Borrower under this Section 2.16(h) and all other rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations. No failure on the part of any Borrower to make the payments required by this Section 2.16(h) (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any other Borrower, and, subject to Section 9.16 hereof, each Borrower shall remain liable for the full amount of the Obligations.

SECTION 2.17. No Withholdings. All sums payable by the Borrowers under the Notes, this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, shall be paid in full and without set-off or counterclaims and free of any deductions or withholdings for any and all present and future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, duties, filing and other fees or charges (collectively, “Taxes”). In the event that any Borrower is prohibited by any law from making any such payment free of such deductions or withholdings with respect to Taxes, then such Borrower shall pay such additional amount to the Administrative Agent as may be necessary in order that the actual amount received by Lenders after such deduction or withholding (and after payment of any additional Taxes due as a consequence of the payment of such additional amount) shall equal the amount that would have been received if such deduction or withholding were not required; provided, however, no Borrower shall be obligated to pay such additional amount on account of a specific Lender if at the time such Lender became a “Lender” hereunder, the Borrowers are required to deduct or withhold any sums solely because a Lender, although having a legal basis to do so, fails to deliver to the Administrative Borrower (a) a duly executed copy of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or W-8 ECI or any successor form or any required renewal thereof, as the case may be, certifying in each case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments hereunder or under the other Financing Documents without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes or (b) a duly executed United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or W-9 or any successor form or any required renewal thereof, establishing that a full exemption exists from United States backup withholding tax, and as result of such failure, any Borrower was prohibited by the IRC, from making any such payment free of such deductions or withholding. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.17, in no event will any Lender’s failure to deliver any such forms, or any renewal or extension thereof, affect, postpone or relieve the Borrowers from any obligation to pay Interest, principal and other amounts due under the Financing Documents (other than amounts due under this Section 2.17 as a result of a Lender’s failure to deliver such forms). Such additional amount shall be due concurrently with the payment with respect to which such additional amount is owed in the amount of Taxes certified by the Administrative Agent (or the applicable Lender). A certificate as to the amount of Taxes submitted by the Administrative Agent to the Administrative Borrower setting forth the Administrative Agent’s (or the applicable Lender’s) basis for the determination of Taxes shall be conclusive evidence of the amount thereof, absent manifest error. Failure on the part of the Administrative Agent to demand payment from the Administrative Borrower or any other Borrower for any Taxes attributable to any particular period shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s (or the applicable Lender’s) right to demand payment of such amount for any subsequent or prior period. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall obtain a refund of any withholdings that have been paid by any Borrower, then, provided, that no Default or Event of Default shall have then occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be,

shall remit to the Administrative Borrower the amount of such refund so received after deducting all costs and expenses that were incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, in connection therewith.

SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, Interest, Additional Interest or otherwise) prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating Interest thereon. All such payments shall be payable by wire transfer to the credit of the Administrative Agent, at JPMorgan Chase Bank, ABA #000-000-000, in favor of HSH Nordbank AG, New York Branch, Account #400949687, Reference: Cornerstone Core Properties REIT, Attention: Loan Operations or to such other account or address as the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate in writing to the Administrative Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, charge, when due and payable, any of any Borrower’s accounts maintained with the Administrative Agent for principal, Interest, fees or other amounts owing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on or with respect to this Agreement, the Loans or any other Financing Document. Whenever any payment to be made under the Financing Documents shall be stated to be due, or if the Maturity Date would otherwise occur, on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made, and the Maturity Date shall occur, on the next succeeding Business Day, unless the effect of extending the date on which such payment would be due would be to extend the due date for such payment into the next calendar month in which case such payment shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day. Any such extension of time shall be included in the computation of payment of Interest hereunder. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Interest and fees then due hereunder (other than funds received while no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and which relate to the payment of principal or Interest of specific Obligations or which relate to the payment of specific fees) shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of all amounts due and owing under the Financing Documents other than principal or interest, (ii) second, towards payment of Interest then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of Interest and fees then due to such parties, (iii) third, towards payment of principal then due hereunder in respect of Loans (other than Working Capital Loans), ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties, and (iv) fourth, towards payment of principal then due hereunder in respect of all Working Capital Loans, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, except as expressly set forth in Section 4.04(c) hereof, all funds received by the Administrative Agent shall be applied on account of sums due and owing under the Financing Documents in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or Interest on or other sums due with respect to any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued Interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued Interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.18(c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.18(c) shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

SECTION 2.19. Cash Management Accounts.

(a) Each Borrower shall cause all Space Lease Rents and all other revenue, income and other profits arising from the Borrowing Base Properties to be paid and deposited into their respective Operating Account immediately upon receipt except to the extent otherwise provided herein or in any other Financing Document. Each Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a security interest in all of its rights, title and interest in and to its Operating Account and all other accounts opened or maintained by such Borrower in connection with the ownership, operation and leasing of the Borrowing Base Properties, including any account for the deposit of security deposits or reserve funds (collectively, the “Cash Management Accounts”) and all sums on deposit therein as additional security for the Obligations and all other obligations of the Credit Parties under the Financing Documents.

(b) (i) Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and subject to the other limitations on withdrawals and uses of revenue set forth herein and in the other Financing Documents, and the other terms and provisions of the Financing Documents with respect to insurance proceeds and other particular sums, each Borrower may make withdrawals from its Cash Management Accounts to pay (A) reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by the Borrowers in the ordinary course of business (including the reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by the REIT in the ordinary course of business that are reasonably allocable to the Borrowers and not reasonably allocable to any other Subsidiaries of the REIT or to any other entity in which the REIT holds an equity interest), and (B) the Obligations, provided that, with respect to any Cash Management Account for security deposits or reserve funds, all disbursements shall be made for the purposes for, and in accordance the terms and provisions of the agreements and instruments pursuant to, which such deposits or reserves were made. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, and upon notice from the Administrative Agent, no Borrower shall have any right, and the Credit Parties covenant that they shall not and shall not permit the other Credit Parties to withdraw any amounts from any Cash Management Account, except (1) as permitted pursuant to the following clause (ii) and (2) as may otherwise be approved by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Subject to the other limitations on withdrawals and uses of revenue set forth herein and in the other Financing Documents, and the other terms and provisions of the Financing Documents with respect to insurance proceeds and other particular sums, each Borrower may make withdrawals from its Cash Management Accounts to make Restricted Payments not prohibited pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof and the other terms and conditions hereof, provided that, with respect to any Cash Management Account for security deposits or reserve funds, all disbursements shall be made for the purposes for, and in accordance the terms and provisions of the agreements and instruments pursuant to, which such deposits or reserves were made. No Borrower shall have any right, and the Credit Parties covenant that they shall not and shall not permit the other Credit Parties to withdraw any amounts from any Cash Management Account, to make any Restricted Payment prohibited from being made pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof and the other terms and conditions hereof.

(iii) Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights and remedies with respect to the Cash Management Accounts specified in this Agreement or in any other Financing Document, at law or equity.

(c) Prior to the addition of any Property as a Borrowing Base Property, the applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment of Cash Account Agreement with respect to the applicable Cash Management Accounts. No Borrower shall close any Cash Management Account without obtaining the prior consent of the Administrative Agent and shall not open any new Cash Management Account (i) without at least ten (10) days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, (ii) unless the bank or other financial institution at which such account is opened and maintained is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (iii) unless, prior to or concurrently with the opening of such new Cash Management Account, such Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent an Assignment of Cash Account Agreement with respect thereto. The Borrowers shall pay all fees and costs with respect to the Assignment of Cash Account Agreements for their Cash Management Accounts. Neither the Administrative

Agent nor the Lenders shall be liable for any loss of interest on or any penalty or charge assessed against the funds in, payable on, or credited to any Cash Management Account as a result of the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of its rights, remedies or obligations hereunder or under any other Financing Document, at law or equity. Any interest earned on the balance of each Cash Management Account shall be deposited into such account and be applied with the balance of such account in accordance with this Section 2.19. The Administrative Agent shall have sole control over the Cash Management Accounts, provided that each Borrower shall be permitted to manage and withdraw funds from its Cash Management Accounts as provided herein until the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the rights of the Borrowers and each and every other Person (excluding the Administrative Agent and the applicable depositary bank, subject to any control agreement or other agreement between the Administrative Agent and such depositary bank) with respect to the Cash Management Accounts shall immediately terminate upon notice to the Administrative Borrower, and no such Person except the Administrative Agent shall make any further withdrawal therefrom. Thereafter, the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate such signatories with respect to the Cash Management Accounts as the Administrative Agent may desire, and may make or authorize withdrawals from the Cash Management Accounts to pay the Obligations in whole or in part and/or pay operating expenses and capital expenditures with respect to the Borrowing Base Properties, and/or any other expenses, all as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate and in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect. The Administrative Agent may notify the financial institutions in which any Cash Management Account is held that the applicable Credit Party no longer has a right to instruct such financial institution with respect to matters relating to the withdrawal, operation or administration of, or investment or application of funds on deposit in such Cash Management Account. Without limiting the foregoing the Administrative Agent shall have the right to cause the withdrawal of all funds on deposit in any Cash Management Account and the deposit of such funds in an account established with the Administrative Agent at any time following receipt by the financial institution in which such Cash Management Account is held of a notice from the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Assignment of Cash Account Agreement with respect to such Account, and each Borrower hereby authorizes and directs such financial institutions to make payment directly to the Administrative Agent of the funds in or credited to such accounts, or such part thereof as the Administrative Agent may request. Such financial institution shall have the absolute right to rely upon such notice without inquiring as to the accuracy of the matters referred to in such notice and the depositories shall be fully protected by the applicable Borrower in relying upon such written notice from the Administrative Agent. In the event that the Administrative Agent delivers such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall thereafter have the exclusive right to so instruct such financial institution. Nothing in this Section 2.19(d) shall be construed so as to limit or impair the Administrative Agent’s absolute right to have a receiver appointed following an Event of Default.

SECTION 2.20. Interest Rate Protection Agreement.

(a) Interest Rate Protection Agreement. If, at any time, LIBOR for an interest period of one (1) month is equal to or greater than five and three quarters of one percent (5.75%) per annum, then the Borrowers shall enter into and satisfy all conditions precedent to the

effectiveness of one or more Interest Rate Protection Agreements that shall satisfy all of the following conditions and shall thereafter maintain such Interest Rate Protection Agreements in full force and effect through and including the Maturity Date:

(i) Each Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall be either an interest rate swap, cap, collar or other derivative product acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the effect of which is to protect the Borrowers against upward fluctuations of LIBOR for an interest period of one (1) month in excess of six percent (6%) per annum through the Maturity Date and in the notional amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Loans from time to time;

(ii) Each Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall be entered into between the Borrowers, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent), on the other hand, if the Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent) and the Borrowers shall in their sole discretion elect to enter into an Interest Rate Protection Agreement, or if the Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent) and the Borrowers do not elect to enter into such Interest Rate Protection Agreement, a Qualified Counterparty;

(iii) In the case of an Interest Rate Protection Agreement which is an interest rate cap agreement, all sums payable by the Borrowers on account of the purchase price for the Interest Rate Protection Agreement during the term of the Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall have been paid in full on or prior to the effective date thereof;

(iv) Each Borrower’s interest in such Interest Rate Protection Agreement, including all rights of such Borrower to payment thereunder and any residual value thereof, shall have been collaterally assigned to the Administrative Agent;

(v) The financial institution which is party to such Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a consent to the collateral assignment of each Borrower’s interest in such Interest Rate Protection Agreement referred to in clause (iv) above pursuant to a consent form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “Interest Rate Protection Agreement Consent”); and

(vi) Such Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in form and content.

(b) Failure to Provide Interest Rate Protection. In the event that any Borrower breaches its obligation to enter into and maintain an Interest Rate Protection Agreement in full force and effect as set forth in Section 2.20(a) hereof, in addition to the Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder or under the other Financing Documents, the Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, at the Borrowers’ sole cost and expense and on each Borrower’s behalf, enter into an Interest Rate Protection Agreement as may be required pursuant to Section 2.20(a) hereof. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall elect to enter into an Interest Rate Protection Agreement on any Borrower’s behalf, such Interest Rate Protection Agreement, at the Administrative Agent’s election, may be a Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful

attorney of each Borrower (coupled with an interest), and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to act pursuant to such power following an Event of Default that shall have occurred and be continuing by reason of a failure to comply with the terms of Section 2.20(a) hereof, in its name and stead, solely to execute such an Interest Rate Protection Agreement and all necessary documents ancillary thereto, and for that purpose the Administrative Agent may execute all necessary agreements and instruments, and may substitute one or more persons with like power, each Borrower hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. All sums paid and liabilities incurred by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall be paid by the Borrowers (and not from the proceeds of a Loan) within five (5) days after the Administrative Agent’s demand with Interest at the Default Rate to the date of payment to the Administrative Agent and such sums and liabilities, including such Interest, shall be deemed and shall constitute advances under this Agreement and be secured by the Security Documents.

(c) Obligation of The Borrowers Unaffected by Interest Rate Protection Agreement. No Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall alter, impair, restrict, limit or modify in any respect the obligation of any Borrower to pay Interest on the Loans, as and when the same becomes due and payable in accordance with the provisions of the Financing Documents.

(d) Termination, etc. of Interest Rate Protection Agreement. No Borrower shall terminate, modify, cancel or surrender, or permit the termination, modification, cancellation or surrender of, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent. Within five (5) days after any Borrower obtains knowledge of or receipt of notice (which may be given by the Administrative Agent or a Lender) of a default by the financial institution that is a party to any Interest Rate Protection Agreement, the applicable Borrower shall substitute for such defaulted Interest Rate Protection Agreement another Interest Rate Protection Agreement (to which the Person that defaulted under the defaulted Interest Rate Protection Agreement is not a party) so that, after giving effect to such substitution, the Borrowers are in compliance with the requirements of Section 2.20(a) hereof.

(e) Receipts from Interest Rate Protection Agreements. All payments due to any Borrower pursuant to any Interest Rate Protection Agreement, including upon any termination thereof, shall be payable to and held by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that all periodic “net payments” due to any Borrower so received by the Administrative Agent in connection with a payment made by a counterparty to an Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall be applied by the Administrative Agent on account of Interest then due and payable on the Loan. If an Event of Default occurs, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, for so long as such Event of Default is continuing and in addition to any other rights and remedies hereunder, apply the amounts so held by the Administrative Agent to the Loans or other amounts due under the Financing Documents at the Administrative Agent’s election. Until such time as all Obligations have been paid in full, no Borrower shall have any right to withdraw or otherwise apply any funds received by the Administrative Agent on account of any Interest Rate Protection Agreement. Such funds shall constitute additional security for the Obligations, a security interest therein being granted hereby. In the event any Borrower receives any sums pursuant to or in connection with any Interest Rate Protection Agreement, it shall immediately pay such sums to the Administrative Agent.

(f) Security. No Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall be secured by all or any portion of the Collateral unless it is a Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement, in which case each Borrower’s obligations under such Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall be secured pari passu with the principal amount of the Loans secured by the Mortgages and other Security Documents. In amplification of the foregoing, in the event that any payment made by any Borrower hereunder is insufficient to pay all amounts due and owing on the date of such payment, such payment shall be applied pari passu to the amounts due under the Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreement and to the outstanding principal of the Loans.

(g) Interest Rate Protection Agreements. Each Lender that is a party to any Interest Rate Protection Agreement acknowledges that the interest of each Borrower in and to such Interest Rate Protection Agreement will be pledged and collaterally assigned to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Financing Documents, and hereby consents without any restrictions to such pledge and collateral assignment. All payments, if any, due under such Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall be paid directly to the Administrative Agent and all other rights of any Borrower shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, be exercisable by the Administrative Agent. Each Lender that is a party to any Interest Rate Protection Agreement shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, and cause any Affiliate of such Lender that is a party to any Interest Rate Protection Agreement to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, upon entering into such agreement the Interest Rate Protection Agreement Consent in order to confirm the foregoing.

SECTION 2.21. Reserve Amounts.

(a) If, at the time any Property becomes a Borrowing Base Property less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the gross rentable square footage of such Property shall be subject to Qualified Space Leases and if, as of the last day of any calendar quarter, less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the gross rentable square footage of any Borrowing Base Property shall be subject to Qualified Space Leases, then the Borrowers shall, upon notice of the amount thereof, deposit into an account (the “Occupancy Reserve Account”) maintained with the Administrative Agent or in which the Administrative Agent has a first priority perfected security interest and sole control, a cash reserve (the “Occupancy Reserve”) in an amount reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent as the then market rate for tenant improvements and leasing commissions associated with the vacant space in question. If as of the last day of any calendar quarter the aggregate amount of the Occupancy Reserve on deposit in the Occupancy Reserve Account is less than the aggregate amount of the Occupancy Reserve then required to be deposited then the Borrowers shall, within ten (10) days after notice from the Administrative Agent of the amount thereof, deposit additional cash reserves in the amount of such deficiency into the Occupancy Reserve Account.

Provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have then occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall release, or cause to be released, the amount of the cash reserve being held with respect to any such anticipated major capital repair at such time as (i) the Borrowing Base Property for which such cash reserve is being held shall cease to be a “Borrowing Base Property,” or (ii) such major capital repair shall have been completed to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, all amounts paid, or to be paid, in connection with such major capital repair shall have been paid (or contemporaneously with the release of such cash reserve, will be paid), and the Administrative Agent shall have received evidence, satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of the fulfillment of the conditions set forth in this clause (ii).

The Administrative Agent and The Lenders

SECTION 8.01. Appointment of Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent both as administrative agent and collateral agent 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 hereof and the other Financing Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

SECTION 8.02. The Administrative Agent’s Rights as a Lender. The bank or other financial institution serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Documents 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 such bank or other financial institution and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

SECTION 8.03. Administrative Agent Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Financing Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or thereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 hereof), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank or other financial institution serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 hereof) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The

Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Administrative Borrower or a Lender, and 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 Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV hereof or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.04. Right to Rely. 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent 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 be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for a Credit Party), 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.

SECTION 8.05. Appointment of Sub-Agents. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers 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 its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs 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 credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.06. Release of Collateral. With respect to the release of Collateral, the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any property covered by this Agreement or the other Financing Documents (a) upon termination or expiration of the Commitments, the payment and satisfaction of all obligations arising with respect to the Loans, all fees and expenses and the termination of all Lender Interest Rate Protection Agreements; or (b) constituting property being released, sold or disposed of in compliance with the provisions of the Financing Documents (and the Administrative Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any certificate stating that the property is being released, sold or disposed of in compliance with the provisions of the Financing Documents, without further inquiry), including Section 4.04 hereof; provided, however, that (y) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any release on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (z) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair any Liens upon all interests retained,

all of which shall continue to constitute part of the property covered by the Financing Documents.

SECTION 8.07. Perfection of Lien by Possession; Appointment of Lenders. With respect to perfecting security interests in Collateral which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code or any comparable provision of any Lien perfection statute in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected only by possession, each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender its agent for the purpose of perfecting such interest. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request, shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this Agreement or any other Financing Document or to realize upon any Collateral for the Loans, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by or with the approval of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.08. Bankruptcy of Any Borrower. In the event that a petition seeking relief under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar law is filed by or against any Borrower or any other Person obligated under any Financing Document, the Administrative Agent is authorized, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to file a proof of claim on behalf of itself and the Lenders in such proceeding for the total amount of obligations owed by such Person. With respect to any such proof of claim which the Administrative Agent may file, each Lender acknowledges that without reliance on such proof of claim, such Lender shall make its own evaluation as to whether an individual proof of claim must be filed in respect of such obligations owed to such Lender and, if so, take the steps necessary to prepare and timely file such individual claim.

SECTION 8.09. Resignation; Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this Section 8.09, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Administrative Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, to appoint a successor. If no 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, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be (a) a bank or other financial institution organized under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision, or (b) a branch, agency or representative office of any other bank or financial institution, which branch, agency or representative office is located in the United States. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 hereof 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 it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.10. Lenders’ Independent Analysis. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender 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 Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other Lender as a result of Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and expressly consents to and waives any claim based upon such conflict of interest.

SECTION 8.11. Defaults by any Lender.

(a) Consequences of Default. If for any reason any Lender shall be in default of any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement or any other Financing Document (a “Defaulting Lender”), then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Administrative Agent and any other Lender under this Agreement, at law and in equity, such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate as a Lender in decisions under this Agreement, including any rights to approve or direct any determination, action or inaction of the Administrative Agent where the approval or direction of Lenders is required or permitted hereby, and such Defaulting Lender’s right to assign, transfer, sell all or any portion of its rights in and to the Loan or a participation therein pursuant to Section 9.04 hereof, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal.

(b) Remedies. If for any reason the Defaulting Lender fails to make timely payment of any amount required to be paid by such Defaulting Lender to or for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender hereunder, then, in addition to other rights and remedies which the Administrative Agent or such other Lender may have hereunder or otherwise, the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be entitled, but not obligated (i) to advance funds on behalf of any Defaulting Lender, (ii) to the extent not paid by any Borrower, to collect interest from the Defaulting Lender at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation until the date on which the payment is made, (iii) to withhold or set off or in the case of a Lender, to cause the Administrative Agent to withhold or setoff, and to apply to the payment of the defaulted amount and any related interest, any amounts to be paid to the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (iv) to bring an action or suit against the Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest and (v) to purchase the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Loans in the manner set forth in this Section 8.11. Upon the Defaulting Lender’s failure to make payments as set forth herein and so long as such failure remains uncured (and it is agreed an advance of funds by any other Lender pursuant to clause (i) above shall not be considered a cure of the Defaulting Lender’s default), the Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive its share of any payments made by any Borrower (or amounts owed by any Borrower) after such date pursuant to the Financing

Documents. If the Administrative Agent receives any payment with respect to the Obligations from any Borrower as to which a Defaulting Lender would otherwise have been entitled, then such Defaulting Lender’s share of such payment shall be credited toward the amount owed hereunder by such Defaulting Lender on a dollar for dollar basis.

(c) Purchase of Defaulting Lender’s Interest After Default. In the event of a default by a Lender as referred to in Section 8.11(a) hereof, each Lender which is not a Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to acquire such Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Loans and the Commitments. If more than one Lender exercises such right, each such Lender which is not a Defaulting Lender shall have the right to acquire (in accordance with such acquiring Lender’s Pro Rata Share or by any proportion collectively agreed upon by Lenders desiring to so purchase the Defaulting Lender’s interest) the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Working Capital Loans, the other Loans and the Commitments. Such right to purchase shall be exercised by written notice from the applicable Lender(s) electing to exercise such right to the Defaulting Lender (an “Exercise Notice”), copies of which shall also be sent concurrently to each other Lender. The Exercise Notice shall specify (i) the purchase price for the interest of the Defaulting Lender, determined in accordance with Section 8.11(d) hereof and (ii) the date on which such purchase is to occur, which shall be any Business Day which is not less than fifteen (15) days after the date on which the Exercise Notice is given, provided that if such Defaulting Lender shall have cured its default in full (including with the payment of any interest and other amounts due in connection therewith) to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent within said fifteen (15) day period, then the Exercise Notice shall be of no further effect and the non-defaulting Lender(s) shall no longer have a right to purchase such Defaulting Lender’s interest. Upon any such purchase of a Defaulting Lender’s interest and as of the date of such purchase (the “Purchase Date”), the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Working Capital Loans, the other Loans and the Commitments, and its rights hereunder as a Lender arising from and after the Purchase Date (but not its rights and liabilities with respect thereto or under this Agreement or the other Financing Documents for obligations, indemnities and other matters arising or matters occurring before the Purchase Date) shall terminate on the Purchase Date, and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest. Without in any manner limiting the remedies of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, the obligation of a Defaulting Lender to sell and assign its interest in the Working Capital Loans, the other Loans and the Commitments under this Section 8.11 shall be specifically enforceable by the Administrative Agent and/or any other Lender by an action brought in any court of competent jurisdiction for such purpose, it being acknowledged and agreed that, in light of the disruption in the administration of the Loans and the other terms of the Financing Documents that a Defaulting Lender may cause, damages and other remedies at law are not adequate.

(d) Purchase Price; Payment for Defaulting Lender’s Interest. The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the interest of a Defaulting Lender in the Loans and the Commitments shall be equal to the sum of all of the Defaulting Lender’s advances under the Financing Documents outstanding as of the Purchase Date, less the costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and any non-defaulting Lender directly as a result of the Defaulting Lender’s default hereunder, including interest accrued on such unpaid amounts, court costs and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and fees for accountants and other

similar advisors (provided that such costs and expenses are paid by the Lenders acquiring the interest of such Default to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders incurring same).

(c) Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, under the other Financing Documents or other agreement, document or instrument, at law and in equity are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and permitted by Section 9.02(b) hereof, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in

the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time, and shall not be construed as a waiver of any condition to the making of any other Loan or the making of any other credit accommodation hereunder.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Financing Document may be amended or modified, or any material term thereof waived, except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Credit Parties and the Required Lenders or by the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent with the written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or Note or reduce the rate of Interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the Maturity Date or any Interest on any Loan or Note, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) modify the definitions of “Borrowing Base Loan Amount” or “Imputed Loan Amount” herein without the written consent of each Lender or (v) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 hereof or the definition of “Required Lenders” herein or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the written consent of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Credit Parties shall, jointly and severally, pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, in connection with the Transactions, the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers requested by any Credit Party of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including (a) the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent; (b) costs and expenses of lien and title searches and title insurance; (c) taxes, fees and other charges for recording and/or filing of the Mortgages and other Security Documents, including financing statements, continuations, and other actions to perfect, protect, and continue the Administrative Agent’s Liens (including costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the consummation of Agreement); (d) sums paid or incurred to pay any amount or take any action required of any Credit Party under the Financing Documents that any Credit Party fails to pay or take; (e) costs of appraisals, inspections, and verifications of the Collateral (including the out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in evaluating whether a Property is a Borrowing Base Property), including reasonable travel, lodging, and meals for inspections of the Collateral and the Borrowers’ operations by the Administrative Agent; and (f) costs and expenses of forwarding loan proceeds, collecting checks and other items of payment and costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses

incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section 9.03, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans. In connection with any anticipated syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the Administrative Agent shall provide the Administrative Borrower with an estimate of the expenses to be incurred in connection with such anticipated syndication prior to the incurrence of such expenses.

(b) The Credit Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or thereunder, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, (iv) the properties or assets of the Credit Parties, including the Borrowing Base Properties and any other Collateral or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claim, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) To the extent that the Credit Parties fail to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under Section 9.03(a) or (b) hereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought and based upon the outstanding principal balance of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Credit Parties shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, the other Financing Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable within five (5) days after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) a Credit Party may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by such Credit Party without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (but without the consent of any Borrower), provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender with a Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment. Each Credit Party agrees to provide assistance as may be reasonably requested by any Lender in connection with any such Assignment.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or 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) shall not be less than $10,000,000;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption; and

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.09, 2.15, 2.17 and 9.03 hereof). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 hereof shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.04(c) hereof.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 9.04(b)(i) hereof, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 9.04(b)(v).

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) hereof that affects such Participant. Subject to Section 9.04(c)(ii) hereof, each

Credit Party agrees, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.09, 2.15 and 2.17 hereof to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.04(b) hereof. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 hereof as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) hereof as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 hereof than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the Notes issued to such Lender to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or the central reserve bank or similar authority of any other country, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by each Credit Party herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued Interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.09, 2.15, 2.17 and 9.03 hereof and Article VIII hereof shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Financing Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01 hereof, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof, and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries against any of and all the obligations of such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD CALL FOR THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(b) Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Document against any Credit Party or any of their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in Section 9.09(b) hereof. Each of the parties hereto hereby

irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.10. Waiver Of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.10.

SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, rating agencies, portfolio management servicers, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 9.12), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, governmental or quasi-governmental agency or their representatives, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any court order, subpoena or other legal process or by any applicable stock exchange rules, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, any other Financing Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, at law or in equity, (f) in connection with any litigation between or among any of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Credit Parties, (g) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.12, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (h) with respect to Information pertaining to any Credit Party, with the consent of the Administrative Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.12 by the applicable party seeking to use such information or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than any

Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Transactions and all materials of any kind (including opinions and tax analysis) that have been provided to such Persons relating to the tax treatment and tax structure of the Transactions. For the purposes of this Section 9.12, “Information” means all information received from a Credit Party relating to any Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Credit Party and information that is independently developed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.12 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Each party hereto acknowledges that certain Information obtained by it may be material and nonpublic and that, under applicable law, such party may be prohibited from trading in securities of the party to whom such material nonpublic information pertains based upon such material and nonpublic Information.

SECTION 9.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the Interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.13 shall be cumulated and the Interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.14. Determinations and Consent of the Administrative Agent. With respect to any matter for which the Administrative Agent’s consent, approval or waiver is required hereunder or under the other Financing Documents, no such consent, approval or waiver by the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, and then such consent, approval or waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstance. Unless expressly provided to the contrary in any particular instance, any determination, election or judgment made or any consent, approval or waiver given by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall be made or given, as the case may be, in the Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion, whether or not the applicable provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document expressly so provides. In making any such determination, election or judgment or in providing or deciding not to provide any such consent, approval or waiver, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, to the extent the Administrative Agent so elects, in whole or in part on the advice of counsel (including counsel

for any Borrower or any Guarantor), independent public accountants, engineers, architects, appraisers, insurance consultants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.15. No Joint Venture. No Credit Party is nor shall be deemed to be a joint venturer, partner, tenant in common or joint tenant with, or an agent of the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any purpose.

SECTION 9.16. Limitation on Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the Notes, the Mortgages or in the other Financing Documents, the sole remedies of the Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the payment of principal, Interest, Additional Interest and other amounts owed hereunder or under the Notes or any other Financing Documents or for any claim based on this Agreement, the Notes or any other Financing Document shall be against the Borrowing Base Properties, the other Mortgaged Property and the other Collateral, and no recourse shall be had for the payment of such amounts against any assets (other than the Borrowing Base Properties, the other Mortgaged Property and the other Collateral) of any Borrower or any Guarantor; provided, however, that:

(a) nothing contained in this Agreement (including the provisions of this Section 9.16), the Notes or the other Financing Documents shall constitute a waiver of any of the Borrowers’ obligations herein, under the Notes or the other Financing Documents, or of any of any obligations of the Guarantors under the Financing Documents to which it is a party; and

(b) nothing contained in this Agreement (including the provisions of this Section 9.16), the Notes or the other Financing Documents shall constitute a limitation of liability of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective assets with respect to the Recourse Liability Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity or any other guaranty or indemnity agreement given by it in connection with the Loans.

SECTION 9.17. Administrative Borrower as Agent for the Borrowers. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Borrower as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for all the Borrowers which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received prior written notice signed by each Borrower that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower, acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, has been appointed “Administrative Borrower.” Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Borrower (i) to provide the Administrative Agent with all notices with respect to Loans obtained for the benefit of any Borrower and all other notices and instructions under this Agreement and (ii) to take such action as the Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Loans and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. It is understood that the handling of the Loan account and Collateral of the Borrowers in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of the Borrowers in the most efficient and economical manner and at their request, and that none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall incur liability to any Borrower as a result hereof. Each Borrower expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the Loan account and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is

dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group. To induce the Administrative Agent and Lenders to do so, and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify each of the Administrative Agent and Lenders and hold each of the Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against any of the Administrative Agent or Lenders by any Borrower or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of (a) the handling of the loan Account and Collateral of Borrowers as herein provided or (b) the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s relying on any instructions of the Administrative Borrower.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
