Further, each of Original Borrower and Original Borrower Principal hereby covenants and agrees that it will not take or assert, and will not request or cause any other person or entity to take or assert, any action, claim or allegation in contradiction of, or inconsistent with, the following statement: all provisions of the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents are valid, in full force and effect, and enforceable in accordance with their terms. Original Borrower and Original Borrower Principal jointly and severally agree to indemnify Indemnitees and defend and hold them harmless from any and all claims, losses, causes of action, costs and expenses of every kind or character incurred by or asserted against Indemnitees in connection with (A) any Claims, the Transfer, or the breach by Original Borrower or Original Borrower Principal of the Loan Documents, as amended herein, but only to the extent that such claims, losses, causes of action, costs and expenses arise out of or are in any way connected with or result from the acts, actions or omissions of Original Borrower or Original Borrower Principal, or (B) any actions or conduct taken or caused to be taken by Original Borrower, Original Borrower Principal, or any person or entity claiming by, through, under, or on behalf of Original Borrower or Original Borrower Principal which are in contradiction of, inconsistent with, or in breach of the terms and provisions of this Section 12 (including, without limitation, the release and discharge set forth in this Section 12). Assumptor and New Borrower Principal jointly and severally agree to indemnify Indemnitees, and defend and hold them harmless from any and all claims, losses, causes of action, costs and expenses of every kind or character incurred by or asserted against Indemnitees in connection with Claims, the Transfer or the breach by Assumptor or New Borrower Principal of the Loan Documents, as amended herein, but only to the extent that such claims, losses, causes of action, costs and expenses arise out of or are in any way connected with or result from the acts, actions or omissions of Assumptor or New Borrower Principal.
As used in this Agreement, the term “Claims” shall mean any and all possible claims, demands, actions, fees, costs, expenses and liabilities whatsoever, known or unknown, at law or in equity, originating in whole or in part, on or before the date of this Agreement, which Original Borrower, Original Borrower Principal, or any of their respective partners, limited partners, members, officers, directors, shareholders, agents or employees may now or hereafter have against Indemnitees, and irrespective of whether any such Claims arise out of contract, tort,
6
violation of laws, regulations or otherwise, arising out of or relating to the Loan or any of the Loan Documents including, without limitation, any contracting for, charging, taking, reserving, collecting or receiving interest in excess of the highest lawful rate applicable thereto and any loss, cost or damage of any kind or character arising out of or in any way connected with or in any way resulting from the acts, actions or omissions of Indemnitees, including any requirement that the Loan Documents be modified as a condition to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any charging, collecting or contracting for prepayment premiums, transfer fees or assumption fees, any breach of fiduciary commitment, undue influence, duress, economic coercion, violation of any federal or state securities or Blue Sky laws or regulations, conflict of interest, bad faith, malpractice, violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, intentional or negligent infliction of mental or emotional distress, tortious interference with contractual relations, tortious interference with corporate governance or prospective business advance, breach of contract, deceptive trade practices, libel, slander, conspiracy or any claim for wrongfully accelerating the Note or wrongfully attempting to foreclose on any collateral relating to the Note, but in each case only to the extent permitted by applicable law. Original Borrower, Assumptor, Original Borrower Principal and New Borrower Principal agree that Noteholder has no fiduciary or similar obligations to any of such parties and that their relationship is strictly that of creditor and debtor. This release is accepted by Noteholder pursuant to this Agreement and shall not be construed as an admission of liability on the part of any party hereto. Original Borrower, Original Borrower Principal, Assumptor and New Borrower Principal hereby represent and warrant that they are the current legal and beneficial owners of all Claims, if any, released hereby and have not assigned, pledged or contracted to assign or pledge any such Claims to any other person.
13. Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of all of the parties hereto at all times to comply with the applicable law governing the maximum rate or amount of interest payable on or in connection with the Note and the Loan (or applicable United States federal law to the extent that it permits Noteholder to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest payable on or in connection with the Note and the Loan than under applicable law). If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or under the Security Instrument, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Loan, or if Original Borrower or Assumptor have paid any interest in excess of that permitted by law, then it is the express intent of all of the parties that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Noteholder or Lender be credited to the then outstanding principal balance of the Note (or, if the Note has been or would thereby be paid in full, any surplus refunded to Original Borrower or Assumptor), and the provisions of the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with such applicable law but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to accelerate the maturity of the Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest, which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Noteholder does not intend to collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender or Noteholder for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note or other Loan Documents shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread through the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full so that the rate or amount of
7
interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the applicable usury ceiling. Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Note, the Security Instrument, this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, as amended herein, that permits the compounding of interest including, without limitation, any provision by which any of the accrued interest is added to the principal amount of the Note, the total amount of interest that Original Borrower or Assumptor is obligated to pay and Noteholder is entitled to receive with respect to the Loan shall not exceed the amount calculated on a simple (i.e., non-compounded) interest basis at the maximum rate allowed by applicable law on principal amounts actually advanced to or for the account of Original Borrower or Assumptor, including all current and prior advances and any advances made pursuant to the Security Instrument, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as amended herein (including, but not limited to, the payment of taxes, insurance premiums and the like). The provisions of the Note and the other Loan Documents limiting the amount of interest which may be contracted for, charged or received on the indebtedness evidenced thereby and dealing with the rights and duties of the parties with respect to the charging or receiving of interest in excess of the maximum rate, are hereby incorporated in this Agreement by reference as though fully set forth herein. To the extent permitted by law, Original Borrower, Assumptor, Original Borrower Principal and New Borrower Principal hereby waive and release all claims and defenses based upon usury in connection with the execution and delivery of the Note and the other Loan Documents and the borrowing of the funds represented by the Loan.
14. Further Assurances. Original Borrower, Original Borrower Principal, Assumptor and New Borrower Principal agree to perform such other and further acts, and to execute such additional documents, agreements, notices or financing statements, as Noteholder deems reasonably necessary or desirable from time to time to create, preserve, continue, perfect, validate or carry out any of Noteholder’s rights under this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents.
15. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Agreement shall be construed according to and governed by the laws of the jurisdiction(s), which arc specified by the Security Instrument. In the event the Security Instrument does not specifically state what jurisdiction’s laws govern, this Agreement shall be construed according to and governed by the laws in which the Property are located without regard to its conflicts of law principles.
(b) If any provision of this Agreement is adjudicated to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, it will be deemed omitted to that extent and all other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.
(c) No change or modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same is in writing and signed by all parties hereto.
(d) The captions contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and in no event define, describe or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or any of the provisions or terms hereof.

Section 9601, et. seq.), as it may be amended from time to time, any successor statute thereto or any other applicable federal, state or local laws, all such rights being hereby expressly reserved.

Assumptor shall immediately notify Noteholder in writing if any of such representations, warranties or covenants are no longer true or have been breached or if Assumptor has reasonable basis to believe that they may no longer be true or have been breached. In connection with such an event, Assumptor shall comply with all Requirements of Law and directives of Governmental Authorities and, at Noteholder’s request, provide to Noteholder copies of all notices, reports and other communications exchanged with or received from Governmental Authorities relating to such an event.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the Loan Documents, (i) this Agreement shall not modify or amend, or constitute a waiver of, the terms and conditions of Section 8.7 of the Security Instrument, and (ii) no Transfer shall be permitted without Noteholder’s prior written consent, subject to satisfaction of the requirements and conditions of Section 8.3(c) or the Security Instrument, that would cause or result in Inland American, or its successor following a permitted merger pursuant to subparagraph (b)(i), above,
12
(i) not owning at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the Common Stock in MB REIT, or (ii) not Controlling Borrower and MB REIT.
It is acknowledged and agreed that permitting the Permitted Transfers (as defined in this Section 18) without Noteholder’s consent as set forth in this Section 18 is a limited and conditional waiver of certain restrictions on Transfers set forth in the Loan Documents that may otherwise require such consent, and such waiver shall be effective only so long as: (i) the conditions set forth in this Section 18 with respect to each such Transfer are performed and satisfied; (ii) neither an Event of Default nor any event that with the giving of notice or the passage of time would become an Event of Default has occurred and subsists; and (iii) without limitation of any other condition, MB Spring Town Center Limited Partnership, an Illinois limited partnership, is the sole Borrower. Without limitation, it is acknowledged and agreed that (a) upon the failure of the condition described in clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, the waiver set forth in this Section 18 shall automatically terminate and become null and void, and any Transfers occurring thereafter shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents without regard to this Section 18, and (b) upon the failure of any other condition set forth in this Section 18, and during the subsistence of any such failure, the waiver set forth in this Section 18 shall not be effective, and any Transfers occurring while any such failure subsists shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents without regard to this Section 18. In no event shall this Section 18 be deemed or construed to modify or amend the Security Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.
19. Amendments to Loan Documents. Section 8.3(a) of the Security Instrument is hereby amended by: (i) deleting the phrase “Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, Xxx X. Xxxxx, Xxxxx X. Xxxxx, and Xxxx X. Xxxxxxx” in clause (B) of said Section and substituting the phrase “Minto Builders (Florida), Inc., a Florida corporation” in its place; (ii) deleting the phrase “prior to the death or legal incapacity of all the Original Principals and is thereafter assumed by persons who are acceptable to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion” at the end of said clause (B); and (iii) deleting clause (C) of said Section in its entirety and substituting the phrase “(C) intentionally omitted,” in its place.
20. Noteholder Confirmation. Noteholder hereby confirms to Assumptor that the representations and warranties of Original Borrower made in Sections 3(a) and 3(b) of this Agreement are true and correct. Further, Noteholder hereby confirms to Assumptor that there are no uncured defaults under the Loan Documents with respect to the payment of principal and interest. Further, Noteholder represents and warrants to Assumptor that to its actual knowledge, no other Event of Default (as defined in the Security Instrument) exists under the Loan. However, Noteholder is not waiving and does not hereby waive any existing defaults if any in fact exist and nothing herein is intended to be nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any existing defaults, material or immaterial, which may in fact exist. As used in this paragraph, “actual knowledge” means the actual state of mind of the person or persons directly responsible for the processing of Original Borrower’s request for consent to the Transfer and Assumption and does not include any implied, constructive or imputed knowledge.
