or would have the effect of reducing the return on the Lender's capital to a
level below that which the Lender could have achieved (taking into
consideration the Lender's then existing policies with respect to capital
adequacy and assuming full utilization of the Lender's capital) but for such
adoption, change or compliance, by any amount deemed by the Lender to be
material: (i) the Lender shall promptly after its determination of such
occurrence give notice thereof to the Borrower; and (ii) the Borrower shall pay
to the Lender as an additional fee from time-to-time on demand such amount as
the Lender certifies to be the amount that will compensate it for such
reduction; provided, however, (i) any payment of such additional fees shall be

required to pay the additional fees if within sixty (60) days of such notice

the Lender may, during the continuance thereof, proceed to protect and enforce
its rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Note or any of the other Loan
Documents by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding,
whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any instrument pursuant to which
the Obligations are evidenced, including as permitted by applicable law the
obtaining of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if any amount owed to
the Lender shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, proceed to
enforce the payment thereof or any other legal or equitable right of the
Lender. No remedy conferred upon the Lender or the holder of the Note in this
Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents is intended to be exclusive of
any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be
-47-
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or
thereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
any other provision of law.
10.4 Distribution of Collateral Proceeds. In the event that, following
the occurrence and only during the continuance of any Default or Event of
Default, the Lender receives any monies in connection with the enforcement of
any the Security Documents, or otherwise with respect to the realization upon
any of the Collateral, such monies shall be distributed for application as
follows:
(1) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the
reimbursement of the Lender for or in respect of all reasonable costs,
expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or
sustained by the Lender in connection with the collection of such
monies by the Lender, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by
the Lender of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and
privileges of the Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents or in respect of the Collateral or in support of any
provision of adequate indemnity to the Lender against any taxes or
liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights
of the Lender to such monies;
(2) Second, to all other Obligations in such order or
preference as the Lender may determine; provided, however, that the
Lender may in its discretion make proper allowance to take into
account any Obligations not then due and payable;
(3) Third, upon payment and satisfaction in full or other
provisions for payment in full satisfactory to the Lender of all of
the Obligations, to the payment of any obligations required to be paid
pursuant to ss.9-504(1)(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and
(4) Fourth, the excess, if any, shall be returned to the
Borrower or to such other Persons as are entitled thereto.
10.5 Power of Attorney. For the purposes of carrying out the
provisions and exercising the rights, remedies, powers and privileges granted
by or referred to in this Article after the occurrence of an Event of Default
and only during the continuance thereof, the Borrower hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints the Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with
full power of substitution, to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments
and do and perform any acts which are referred to in this Article, in the name
and on behalf of the Borrower. The
-48-
power vested in such attorney-in-fact is, and shall be deemed to be, coupled
with an interest and irrevocable.
10.6 Waivers. The Borrower hereby waives to the extent not prohibited
by applicable law (a) all presentments, demands for performance, notices of
nonperformance (except to the extent required by the provisions hereof or of
any of the other Loan Documents), protests and notices of dishonor, (b) any
requirement of diligence or promptness on the Lender's part in the enforcement
of its rights (but not fulfillment of its obligations) under the provisions of
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Docu ments, and (c) any and all notices
of every kind and description which may be required to be given by any statute
or rule of law and any defense of any kind which the Borrower may now or
hereafter have with respect to its liability under this Agreement or under any
of the other Loan Documents.
11. SETOFF. Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral, during the
continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits (general or
specific, time or demand, provisional or final, regardless of
currency, maturity, or the branch of the Lender where such deposits
are held, however, exclusive of any deposits in the Borrower's name as
agent or fiduciary for any other Person) or other sums credited by or
due from the Lender to the Borrower and any securities or other
property of the Borrower in the possession of the Lender may be
applied to or set off against the payment of the Obligations and any
and all other Obligations.
12. EXPENSES. The Borrower agrees to pay (a) the reasonable costs of
producing this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other
agreements and instruments mentioned herein, (b) any taxes (including
any interest and penalties in respect thereto) payable by the Lender
(other than taxes based upon the Lender's net income, franchise taxes
or doing business taxes), including any recording, mortgage or
intangibles taxes in connection with the Security Deed, or other taxes
payable on or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, including any taxes payable by the Lender after the Closing
Date (the Borrower hereby agreeing to indemnify the Lender with
respect thereto), (c) all title insurance premiums, and the reasonable
fees, expenses and disbursements of the Lender's counsel or any local
counsel to the Lender incurred in connection with the preparation,
administration or interpretation of the Loan and the Loan Documents
and other instruments mentioned herein, the making of each Advance
hereunder, and amendments, modifications, approvals, consents or
waivers hereto or hereunder, (d) the fees, expenses and disbursements
of the Lender incurred in connection with the preparation,
administration or interpretation of the Loan and the Loan Documents
and other instruments mentioned
-49-
herein, and the making of each Advance hereunder (including all
Appraisal fees and surveyor fees) (e) all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, which
attorneys may be employees of the Lender, but excluding any other
internal costs or overhead charges of Lender) and the fees and costs
of consultants, accountants, auctioneers, receivers, brokers, property
managers, appraisers, investment bankers or other experts retained by
the Lender in connection with (i) the enforcement of or preservation
of rights under any of the Loan Documents against the Borrower or any
Obligor or the administration thereof after the occurrence of a
Default or Event of Default and only during the continuance thereof,
and (ii) any litigation, proceeding or dispute whether arising
hereunder or otherwise, in any way related to the Lender's
relationship with the Borrower or any Party, and (f) all reasonable
fees, expenses and disbursements of the Lender incurred in connection
with UCC searches, UCC filings, title rundowns, title searches or
mortgage recordings. The covenants of this Section shall survive
payment or satisfaction of payment of all amounts owing with respect
to the Note.
13. INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Lender from and against any and all claims, actions and suits,
whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all
liabilities, losses, damages and expenses of every nature and
character arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby
including, without limitations, (a) any brokerage, leasing, finders or
similar fees, (b) any disbursement of the proceeds of any of the
Advances, (c) any condition of the Project whether related to the
quality of construction or otherwise, (d) any actual or proposed use
by the Borrower of the proceeds of any of the Advances, (e) any actual
or alleged violation of any Requirements or Project Approvals, or (f)
the Borrower or any Party entering into or performing this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents, in each case including, without
limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and
allocated costs of internal counsel incurred in connection with any
such investigation, litigation or other proceeding; provided, however,
that nothing herein shall be construed to obligate Borrower to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims,
actions, suits, costs and expenses enacted against, imposed on or
incurred by Lender by reason of Lender's willful misconduct or gross
negligence. In litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Lender
shall be entitled to select its own counsel and, in addition to the
foregoing indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly the
reasonable fees and
-50-
expenses of such counsel. The obligations of the Borrower under this
Section shall survive the repayment of the Loan and shall continue in
full force and effect with respect to any claim, action or suit made
upon the Lender on or before one (1) year after the date of the
repayment of the Loan. If, and to the extent that the obligations of
the Borrower under this Section are unenforceable for any reason, the
Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment
in satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under
applicable law.
14. RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES. All conditions to the performance of the
obligations of the Lender under this Agreement, including the
obligation to make Advances, are imposed solely and exclusively for
the benefit of the Lender and no other Person shall have standing to
require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms
or be entitled to assume that the Lender will refuse to make Advances
in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no
other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a
beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely
waived in whole or in part by the Lender at any time if in its sole
discretion it deems it desirable to do so. In particular, the Lender
makes no representations and assumes no obligations as to third
parties concerning the quality of the construction by the Borrower of
the Improvements or the absence therefrom of defects.
15. SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC. All covenants, agreements, representations
and warranties made herein, in the Note, in any of the other Loan
Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on
behalf of the Borrower or any Party pursuant hereto and thereto shall
be deemed to have been relied upon by the Lender, notwithstanding any
investigation heretofore or hereafter made by it, and shall survive
the making by the Lender of the Advances, as herein contemplated, and
shall continue in full force and effect either (i) so long as any
amount due under this Agreement or the Note or any of the other Loan
Documents remains outstanding or the Lender has any obligation to make
any Advances or (ii) for such longer period as may be provided for
herein or in any other Loan Document. All statements contained in any
certificate or other paper delivered to the Lender at any time by or
on behalf of any Party or any Subsidiary thereof pursuant hereto or in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute
representations and warranties by such Person.

-51-
16.1 Conditions to Assignment by Lender. Except as provided herein,
the Lender may assign to one or more banks or other entities all or a portion
of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement. From and after

extent agreed to by the Lender, have the rights and obligations of a Lender
hereunder, and (ii) the Lender shall, to the extent of its interest assigned as
provided herein, be released from its obligations under this Agreement arising

exchange for the Note, a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount
equal to the amount assumed by such assignee and, if the Lender has retained
some portion of its obligations hereunder, a new Note to the order of the
Lender in an amount equal to the amount retained by it hereunder and (b) an
amendment to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, as may be reasonably
requested by the Lender, to evidence the assignment, provide for the rights and
interest of the assignee, and establish the rights, responsibilities and
obligations of the Lender as agent for itself and any such assignee. Such new
Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall
be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of
the surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such assignment and
shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes. The
surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.
16.3 Participations. The Lender may sell participations to one or more
banks or other entities in all or a portion of the Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that
(a) any such sale of participations shall not affect the rights and duties of
the Lender hereunder to the Borrower and (b) the only rights granted to the
participant pursuant to such participation arrangements with respect to
waivers, amendments or modifications of the Loan Documents shall be the right

of or the interest rate on the Loan, extend the term or increase the amount of
the Loan or extend any regularly scheduled payment date for principal or
interest.

any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including all or

-52-
enforcement thereof shall release the Lender from its obligations hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents.
16.5 No Assignment by the Borrower. The Borrower shall not assign or
transfer any of its rights or obligations under any of the Loan Documents
without the prior approval of the Lender.
17. RELATIONSHIP. The relationship between the Lender and the Borrower is
solely that of a lender and borrower, and nothing contained herein or
in any of the other Loan Documents shall in any manner be construed as
making the parties hereto partners, joint venturers or any other
relationship other than lender and borrower.
18. NOTICES. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any other Loan
Document, each notice, demand, election or request provided for or
permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan

Business Days following such deposit or the date of receipt as disclosed on

time to time and at any time during the term of this Agreement to change their
respective addresses and each shall have the right to specify as its address

20. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS. THE BORROWER AND EACH PARTY HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY (A) SUBMITS TO PERSONAL JURISDICTION
IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS OVER ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE
OTHER LOAN
-54-
DOCUMENTS, AND (B) WAIVES ANY AND ALL PERSONAL RIGHTS UNDER THE LAWS
OF ANY STATE (I) TO THE RIGHT, IF ANY, TO TRIAL BY JURY, AND (II) TO
OBJECT TO JURISDICTION WITHIN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS OR
VENUE IN ANY PARTICULAR FORUM WITHIN THE COMMONWEALTH OF
MASSACHUSETTS. NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN, HOWEVER, SHALL PREVENT THE
LENDER FROM BRINGING ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR EXERCISING ANY
RIGHTS AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL AND AGAINST THE BORROWER, AND AGAINST
ANY PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER, IN ANY OTHER STATE. INITIATING SUCH
SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR TAKING SUCH ACTION IN ANY STATE SHALL IN
NO EVENT CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF THE AGREEMENT CONTAINED HEREIN THAT
THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS SHALL GOVERN THE RIGHTS
AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWER, EACH PARTY, AND THE LENDER HEREUNDER
OR THE SUBMISSION HEREIN BY THE BORROWER AND EACH PARTY TO PERSONAL
JURISDICTION WITHIN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS.
21. HEADINGS. The captions in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not define or limit the provisions hereof.
22. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement and any amendment hereof may be executed
in several counterparts and by each party on a separate counterpart,
each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, and
all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In proving this
Agreement it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more

is sought.
23. ENTIRE AGREEMENT, ETC. The Loan Documents and any other documents
executed in connection herewith or therewith express the entire
understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be
changed, waived, discharged or terminated, except as provided in
Article 24.
24. CONSENTS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC. Except as otherwise expressly set
forth in any particular provision of this Agreement, any consent or
approval required or permitted by this Agreement to be given by the
Lender may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other
instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and the
performance or observance by the Borrower of any terms of this
Agreement or such other instrument or the continuance of any Default
or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular
instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only
with, the written consent of the Lender. No waiver shall extend to or
affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right
consequent thereon. No course of dealing or delay or
-55-
omission on the part of the Lender in exercising any right shall
operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. No
Advance made by the Lender hereunder during the continuance of any
Default or Event of Default shall constitute a waiver thereof. No
notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
25. TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence with respect to each and
every covenant, agreement and obligation of the Borrower under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
26. SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if
any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or
unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such

provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any
manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or
any other clause or provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

SHAREHOLDER OR DIRECTOR OF THE BORROWER OR OF ANY PARTNER OR

recourse basis to the Borrower, the partners of Xxxxxxxxx and the
beneficiaries of the Trust. The Borrower, the partners of Xxxxxxxxx

performance of any of the terms and conditions contained in any of the
