(the "Loan") to be used to refinance the Property.
The Loan will be evidenced by a promissory note (the "Note") payable

Deed of Trust and defined therein and herein as "Personalty", being hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Property").
1.2 ADDITIONAL CREDIT SUPPORT.

"Guaranties" and "Guarantors" in this Agreement may be disregarded.

Statement perfecting a first-position lien on all personal property collateral
that is perfected by filing; (e) the Guaranties, if any; (f) an ALTA title

1.5 AUTOMATIC DEDUCTION.
Borrower agrees that monthly interest payments and quarterly
principal payments on the Note will be deducted automatically on the due date
from checking account number 14581-26311 maintained by Borrower at the Bank (the
"Checking Account").
Bank will debit the Checking Account on the dates the payments become
due. If a due date does not fall on a banking day, Bank will debit the Checking
Account on the first banking day following the due date.
Borrower will maintain the Checking Account in good standing with Bank
throughout the term of the Loan, and maintain sufficient funds in the Checking
Account on the dates Bank enters debits authorized by this Agreement. If there
are insufficient funds in the Checking Account on the date Bank enters any debit
authorized by this Agreement, without limiting Bank's other remedies in such an
event, the debit will be reversed.
Borrower hereby grants to Bank a security interest in the Checking
Account, and any other accounts from which Borrower may from time to time
authorize Bank to debit payments due on the Loan, for the purpose of securing
the payment of amounts Bank is authorized to deduct from the Checking Account or
such other accounts. The security interest is granted only to the extent of
such authorized deductions, and does not secure any other obligation owed by
Borrower to Bank, whether under this Agreement or otherwise.

2. COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER.
Borrower promises to keep each of the following covenants:
2.1 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Borrower will comply with all existing and
future laws, regulations, orders, building restrictions and requirements of, and
all permits and approvals from, and agreements with and commitments to, all
governmental, judicial or legal authorities having jurisdiction over the
Property or Borrower's business conducted thereon or therefrom, and with all
restrictive covenants and other title encumbrances encumbering the Property (all
collectively, the "Requirements"), noncompliance of which could reasonably be
expected to cause a material adverse effect upon the Property, business,
operations, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower, it being
agreed and understood that an adverse change in general economic conditions
shall not constitute an adverse change in the prospects of Borrower.
2.2 CONDITIONAL SALES CONTRACTS; REMOVAL OF FIXTURES AND EQUIPMENT.
Without Bank's prior written consent, Borrower must not (i) purchase any
fixtures to be installed on the Property under any agreement where the seller
reserves a lien, security interest or title thereto, or the right of removal or
repossession after such items are installed on the Property; and (ii) remove or
permit to be removed from the Real Property or the Improvements any
fixtures used in connection with the management, maintenance, operation or
enjoyment thereof unless replaced by articles of equal suitability and value
owned by Borrower free and clear of any lien or security interest.
2.3 SITE VISITS. Borrower grants Bank, its agents and representatives the
right to enter and visit the Property at any reasonable time for the purposes of
observing, performing appraisals, inspecting the Property, taking soil or
groundwater samples, and conducting tests, among other things, to investigate
for the presence of Hazardous Substances, as defined in Article IV. Borrower
must also allow Bank to examine, copy and audit its books and records. Bank is
under no duty to visit or observe the Property, or to examine any books or
records. Any site visit, observation or examination by Bank is solely for the
purpose of protecting Bank's security and preserving Bank's rights under the
Loan Documents. Neither Borrower nor any other party is entitled to rely on any
site visit, observation or testing by Bank, its agents or representatives. Bank
owes no duty of care to protect Borrower or any other party against, or to
inform Borrower or any other party of, any adverse condition affecting the
Property, including any defects in the design or construction of any
improvements on the Property or the presence of any Hazardous Substances on the
Property. Bank is not obligated to disclose to Borrower or any other party any
report or findings made as a result of, or in connection with, any site visit,
observation or testing by Bank. Prior to entering the Property, Bank must give
Borrower reasonable notice of its intent to enter. Bank must exercise
reasonable efforts to avoid interfering with Borrower's use of the Property in
connection with the activities permitted under this Section.
2.4 INSURANCE. Borrower must maintain the following insurance:
(a) All risk property damage insurance in nonreporting form on
the Property, with a policy limit in an amount not less than the full insurable
value of the Property on a replacement cost basis, including tenant
improvements, if any. The policy shall include a business interruption (or rent
loss, if more appropriate) endorsement, a lender's loss payable endorsement (438
BFU) in favor of Bank, and any other endorsements required by Bank.
(b) Commercial General Liability coverage with such limits as
Bank may reasonably require. This policy must name Bank as an additional
insured. Coverage must be written on an occurrence basis, not claims made.
(c) Such other insurance as Bank may reasonably require, which
may include (i) earthquake insurance, if such insurance is expressly required as
a condition to disbursement of the Loan proceeds or if at any time the Property
is situated in a delineated earthquake fault zone as shown on an earthquake
fault zone map adopted under California's Xxxxxxx-Xxxxxx Earthquake Fault Zoning
Act, or any successor thereto, and (ii) flood insurance, if the Property is
situated in an area designated as "flood prone," "within a flood plain" or
similar designation under federal or state law.
All policies of insurance required by Bank must be issued by companies approved
by Bank and otherwise be acceptable to Bank as to amounts, forms, risk coverages
and deductibles. In addition, each policy (except workers' compensation) must
provide Bank at least thirty (30) days' prior notice of cancellation,
non-renewal or modification. If Borrower fails to keep any such coverage in
effect while the Loan is outstanding, Bank may procure the coverage at
Borrower's expense. Borrower must reimburse Bank, on demand, for all premiums
advanced by Bank, which advances are considered to be additional loans to
Borrower secured by the Deed of Trust and bearing interest at the Default Rate
provided in the Note.
2.5 PRESERVATION OF RIGHTS. Borrower must obtain, preserve and maintain
in good standing, as applicable, all rights, privileges and franchises necessary
or desirable for the operation of the Property and the conduct of Borrower's
business thereon and therefrom.
2.6 MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR. Borrower must (i) maintain the Property,
including the parking and landscaping portions thereof, in good condition and
repair, (ii) promptly make, or cause tenants to make all necessary structural
and non-structural repairs to the Property, and (iii) not demolish, alter,
remove or add to any Improvements, excepting the installation or construction
of tenant improvements in connection with any leases approved in accordance
with this Agreement. Borrower shall pay when due all claims for labor performed
and materials furnished therefor in connection with any improvements or
construction activities commissioned by Borrower, provided that for any claim
not exceeding $100,000.00 or more, Borrower shall have the right to contest in
good faith any claim or lien, provided that Borrower does so promptly and
diligently.
2.7 PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. Borrower must pay all costs and expenses
incurred by Bank in connection with the making, disbursement and administration
of the Loan, as well as any revisions, extensions, renewals or "workouts" of the
Loan, and in the exercise of any of Bank's rights or remedies under this
Agreement. Such costs and expenses include title insurance, recording and
escrow charges, fees for appraisal, environmental services, legal fees and
expenses of Bank's counsel and any other reasonable fees and costs for services,
regardless of whether such services are furnished by Bank's employees or by
independent contractors. Borrower acknowledges that the Loan Fee does not
include amounts payable by Borrower under this section. All such sums incurred
by Bank and not immediately reimbursed by Borrower are considered additional
loans to Borrower secured by the Deed of Trust and bearing interest at the
Default Rate provided in the Note.

within one hundred twenty (120) days of the close of Borrower's fiscal year-end,

trial without a jury. This waiver shall apply to any subsequent amendments,
renewals, supplements or modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.
8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
8.1 NO WAIVER; CONSENTS. No alleged waiver by Bank is effective unless in
writing, and no waiver may be construed as a continuing waiver. No waiver is
implied from any delay or failure by Bank to take action on account of any
default of Borrower. Consent by Bank to any act or omission by Borrower may not
be construed as a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission.
8.2 NO THIRD PARTIES BENEFITED. This Agreement is made and entered into
for the sole protection and benefit of Bank and Borrower and their successors
and assigns. No trust fund is created by this Agreement and no other persons or
entities have any right of action under this Agreement or any right to the Loan
funds.
8.3 NOTICES. All notices given under this Agreement must be in writing
and are effectively served upon delivery, or if mailed, upon the first to occur
of receipt or the expiration of forty-eight (48) hours after deposit in
first-class or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, sent to the party
at its address appearing below its signature. Those addresses may be changed by
either party by notice to the other party.
8.4 ATTORNEYS' FEES. If any lawsuit, reference or arbitration is
commenced which arises out of, or which relates to this Agreement, the Loan
Documents or the Loan, including any alleged tort action, regardless of which
party commences the action, the prevailing party is entitled to recover from
each other party such sums as the court, referee or arbitrator may adjudge to be
reasonable attorneys' fees in the action or proceeding, in addition to costs and
expenses otherwise allowed by law. Any such attorneys' fees incurred by either
party in enforcing a judgment in its favor under this Agreement are recoverable
separately from and in addition to any other amount included in such judgment,
and such attorneys' fees obligations are intended to be severable from the other
provisions of this Agreement and to survive and not be merged into any such
judgment. In all other situations, including any bankruptcy or other voluntary
or involuntary proceeding, in or out of court, for the adjustment of
debtor-creditor relationships, Borrower agrees to pay all of Bank's costs and
expenses, including attorneys' fees, which may be incurred in any effort to
collect or enforce the Loan or any part of it or any term of any Loan Document.
Attorneys' fees include the allocated costs for services of in-house counsel.
8.5 HEIRS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The terms of this Agreement shall bind
and benefit the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the
parties; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign this Agreement without
the prior written consent of Bank. Bank may transfer the Loan to any other
persons or entities with the consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld). Bank may disclose to any prospective purchaser of any
securities issued by Bank, and to any prospective or actual purchaser of any
interest in the Loan or any other loans made by Bank to Borrower, any financial
or other information relating to Borrower, the Loan or the Property.
8.6 INTERPRETATION. The language of this Agreement must be construed as a
whole according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any party.
The word "include(s)" means "include(s), without limitation," and the word
"including" means "including, but not limited to."
8.7 MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except
by a written agreement signed by the parties. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any one or more provisions of this Agreement in no way
affects any other provision. If Borrower consists of more than one person or
entity, each is jointly and severally liable to Bank for the faithful
performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Time is of the
essence in the performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This
Agreement is governed by California law. This Agreement may be executed in one
or more counterparts, each of which is, for all purposes deemed an original and
all such counterparts taken together, constitute one and the same instrument.
8.8 INTEGRATION AND RELATION TO LOAN COMMITMENT. The Loan Documents fully
state all of the terms and conditions of the parties' agreement regarding the
matters mentioned in or incidental to this Agreement. The Loan Documents
supersede all oral negotiations and
-5-
