Each such notice shall also contain (i) a calculation showing that

of Revolving Loans to be outstanding plus the Letter of Credit
Exposure shall not exceed either the Total Commitment or the Advance
Value then in effect, (ii) a certification by the chief financial or
chief accounting officer of the REIT that the REIT and the Borrower
are and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan
Documents (except for any Security Document Event of Default

pro forma basis using the financial statements of the Borrower most
recently provided or required to be provided to the Banks under 6.4
or 7.4 adjusted in the best good faith estimate of the Borrower to
give effect to the proposed advance. Promptly upon receipt of any
such notice, the Agent shall notify each of the Banks thereof. Each
such notice shall be irrevocable and binding on the REIT and the
Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Revolving Loan
requested from the Banks on the proposed Drawdown Date. Each Loan
Request shall be (a) for a Base Rate Revolving Loan in a minimum
aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in

thereto the following paragraphs:
2.8. Issuance of Letters of Credit. Subject to all the terms
and conditions of this Agreement and so long as no Default exists, on
and after the effective date of Amendment No. 3 to this Agreement,
the Agent on behalf of the Banks will issue for the account of the
Borrower irrevocable standby letters of credit (the "Letters of
Credit") provided, however, that no more than three Letters of Credit
may be outstanding at any one time, that the Letter of Credit
Exposure in effect at any time shall never exceed $4,000,000 and that
at no time shall the sum of the Letter of Credit Exposure plus the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans exceed the
lesser of the Total Commitment or the Advance Value.
2.9 Requests for Letters of Credit. The Borrower may from
time to time request a Letter of Credit to be issued by providing to
the Agent a notice which is actually received no less than five
Business Days prior to the requested closing date for such Letter of

paid, as the case may be, by the Agent at its principal office. No
Letter of Credit shall provide for the payment of drafts drawn
thereunder, and no draft shall be payable, at a date which is later
than the earlier of (a) the date twelve months after the date of

reimburse the Agent to the extent of its Commitment Percentage for
all obligations incurred by the Agent to third parties in respect of
such Letters of Credit not reimbursed by the Borrower. The Agent
will send to each Bank on a monthly basis a confirmation regarding
the participation in Letters of Credit outstanding during such month.
2.12. Presentation. The Agent may accept or pay any draft
presented to it, regardless of when drawn and whether or not
negotiated, if such draft, the other required documents and any
transmittal advice are presented to the Agent and dated on or before

drawn. Except insofar as instructions actually received may be given
by the Borrower in writing expressly to the contrary with regard to,
and prior to, the Agent's issuance of any Letter of Credit for the
account of the Borrower and such contrary instructions are reflected
in such Letter of Credit, the Agent may honor as complying with the
terms of the Letter of Credit and with this Agreement any drafts or
other documents otherwise in order signed or issued by an
administrator, executor, conservator, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor
in possession, assignee for benefit of creditors, liquidator,
receiver or other legal representative of the party authorized under
such Letter of Credit to draw or issue such drafts or other
documents.
2.13. Payment of Drafts. At such time as the Agent makes any
payment on a draft presented or accepted under a Letter of Credit,
the Borrower will on demand pay to the Agent for the benefit of the
Banks in immediately available funds the amount of such payment.

required by the foregoing sentence, such amount shall be considered a
Revolving Loan.
2.14. Uniform Customs and Practice. The Uniform Customs and
Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International
Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500, and any subsequent revisions
thereof approved by a Congress of the International Chamber of
Commerce and adhered to by the Agent (the "Uniform Customs and
Practice"), shall be binding on the Borrower and the Agent except to
the extent otherwise provided herein, in any Letter of Credit or in
any other Loan Document. Anything in the Uniform Customs and
Practice to the contrary notwithstanding:
(a) Neither the Borrower nor any beneficiary of any Letter
of Credit shall be deemed an agent of the Agent.
(b) With respect to any Letter of Credit, neither the Agent
nor its correspondents shall be responsible for or shall have
any duty to ascertain:

other notice, demand or protest;
(iv) the performance by any beneficiary under any Letter
of Credit of such beneficiary's obligations to the Borrower;
(v) inaccuracy in any notice received by the Agent;
(vi) the validity, form, sufficiency, accuracy,
genuineness or legal effect of any instrument, draft,
certificate or other document required by such Letter of
Credit to be presented before payment of a draft, or the
office held by or the authority of any Person signing any of
the same; or
(vii) failure of any instrument to bear any reference or
adequate reference to such Letter of Credit, or failure of
any Person to note the amount of any instrument on the
reverse of such Letters of Credit or to surrender such
Letter of Credit or to forward documents in the manner
required by such Letter of Credit.
(c) The occurrence of any of the events referred to in the
Uniform Customs and Practice or in the preceding clauses of
this Section 2.14 shall not affect or prevent the vesting of
any of the Agent's rights or powers hereunder or the Borrower's
obligation to make reimbursement of amounts paid under any
Letter of Credit or any draft accepted thereunder so long as
the Agent has acted without gross negligence or willful
misconduct.
(d) The Borrower will promptly examine (i) each Letter of
Credit (and any amendments thereof) sent to it by the Agent and
(ii) all instruments and documents delivered to it from time to
time by the Agent. The Borrower will notify the Agent of any
claim of noncompliance by notice actually received within three
Business Days after receipt of any of the foregoing documents,
the Borrower being conclusively deemed to have waived any such
claim against the Agent and its correspondents unless such
notice is given. The Agent shall have no obligation or
responsibility to send any such Letter of Credit or any such
instrument or document to the Borrower.
(e) In the event of any conflict between the provisions of
this Agreement and the Uniform Customs and Practice, the
provisions of this Agreement shall govern.
2.15. Subrogation. Upon any payment by the Agent under any
Letter of Credit and until the reimbursement of the Agent by the
Borrower with respect to such payment, the Agent shall be entitled to
be subrogated to, and to acquire and retain, the rights which the
Person to whom such payment is made may have against the Borrower,
all for the benefit of the Banks. The Borrower will take such action
as the Agent may reasonably request, including requiring the
beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to execute such documents as the
Agent may reasonably request, to assure and confirm to the Agent such
subrogation and such rights, including the rights, if any, of the
beneficiary to whom such payment is made in accounts receivable,
inventory and other properties and assets of any Obligor.
2.16. Modification, Consent, etc. If the Borrower requests or
consents in writing to any modification or extension of any Letter of
Credit, or waives any failure of any draft, certificate or other
document to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and if
the Agent consents thereto, the Agent shall be entitled to rely on
such request, consent or waiver. This Agreement shall be binding
upon the Borrower with respect to such Letter of Credit as so
modified or extended, and with respect to any action taken or omitted
by the Agent pursuant to any such request, consent or waiver.

the Joint Venture Portion will be attributed first to any Eurodollar
Rate Loans then outstanding in the order in which they were advanced,
and then to the Base Rate Revolving Loans.

Bank or the Agent from time to time on demand, as an additional fee
payable hereunder, such amount as such Bank shall determine in good
faith and certify in a notice to the Borrower in reasonable detail to
be an amount that will adequately compensate such Bank in light of

capital. Each Bank shall allocate such cost increases among its
customers in good faith and on an equitable basis.

Permits, Licenses and Agreements, (iv) a perfected first priority
lien to be held by the Agent for the benefit of the Banks in cash and
Eligible Short-term Investments of the Borrower from time to time
pledged to the Agent pursuant to one or more Pledge Agreements, (v)

interest rate protection arrangements provided under 8.10 and
10.6 and (vi) such additional collateral, if any, as the Agent for
the benefit of the Banks from time to time may accept as security for
the Obligations with the consent of the Majority Banks, which consent
may be given or withheld in the good faith judgment of the Majority
Banks. The Agent and the Majority Banks shall be entitled to charge
modification fees, in amounts satisfactory to the Agent and the
Majority Banks to be agreed between the Borrower, the Agent and the
Majority Banks, in connection with the taking or releasing of any
Collateral pursuant to this 5.1 or any other provision of the Loan

3.32. Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement is amended in its entirety

5.2. MAI Appraisals.
(a) The Agent shall require biennial MAI Appraisals of
each of the Mortgaged Properties and the Joint Venture Collateral,
which will be ordered, reviewed and approved by the appraisal
departments of the Majority Banks, in order to determine the current
Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property and the Joint Venture
Collateral, and the Borrower shall pay to the Agent on demand all
reasonable costs of all such MAI Appraisals; provided, however, that
so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and regulatory requirements or internal policies of any
Bank generally applicable to real estate loans of the category made
under this Agreement shall not require more frequent MAI Appraisals,
the Borrower shall not be required to pay for an MAI Appraisal of
either any particular item of Mortgaged Property or any particular
item of Joint Venture Collateral more often than once in any 24-month
period. The MAI Appraisals of the Joint Venture Collateral shall be
made on the basis of MAI appraisals of the underlying Real Estate
owned by the Joint Ventures. Such MAI appraisals shall be adjusted
as the Banks shall determine. Each of the Banks represents that as
of the date of this Amendment No. 3 its internal policies, as applied
to the credit advanced under this Agreement and the Collateral
provided therefor, do not require MAI Appraisals either of the
Mortgaged Properties or the Joint Venture Collateral more frequently
than every 24 months.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of 5.2(a), in the
event that any Major Tenant shall take any action described in
12.1(i) or become the subject of any event described in 12.1(j) or
12.1(k) (reading 12.1(i), (j), and (k) as referring to such Major
Tenant in place of the Borrower), then at the request of any Bank an
MAI Appraisal of each item of Mortgaged Property and Joint Venture
Collateral in which such Major Tenant is a tenant shall be
commissioned by the Agent at the expense of the Borrower. If so
requested by the Borrower, the Agent also shall commission MAI
Appraisals of any or all of the remaining items of Mortgaged Property
and Joint Venture Collateral, in each case at the expense of the
Borrower.
3.33. Section 5.3 of the Credit Agreement is amended in its entirety
to read as follows:
5.3. Majority Bank Appraisals.
(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of 5.2, the Majority
Banks may perform Majority Bank Appraisals or internal studies
updating and revising prior Appraisals (i) annually with respect to
the Mortgaged Property and the Joint Venture Collateral or such
portion thereof as the Majority Banks shall determine, for the
purpose of determining the current Appraised Value of the Mortgaged
Property and the Joint Venture Collateral, and (ii) at the option of
the Majority Banks more frequently than annually in connection with
any request for a release of Collateral under 5.4 or 5.5. Majority
Bank Appraisals or updates performed under clause (ii) of the
preceding sentence shall be for the purpose of determining whether
the proposed release satisfies the conditions set forth in 5.4 or
5.5, as the case may be, and shall be limited to those Mortgaged
Properties and the Joint Venture Collateral with respect to which
there shall have occurred or arisen since the most recent prior
Appraisal any event or condition which, in the reasonable judgment of
the Majority Banks, constitutes a material adverse change with
respect to such Mortgaged Property and such Joint Venture Collateral
or presents a reasonable likelihood that such a change shall occur in
the future. The expense of Majority Bank Appraisals and updates
performed pursuant to clause (i) and clause (ii) of this 5.3(a)
shall be borne by the Borrower as provided in 15.
(b) In the event that the Agent shall advise the Borrower,
on the basis of any Majority Bank Appraisal or update pursuant to
5.3(a)(ii), that a proposed release of Collateral under 5.4 or 5.5
does not satisfy the conditions set forth in 5.4 or 5.5, as the
case may be, then the Agent shall not be required to permit such
release.
(c) The provisions of 5.3(b) are subject, however, to
the right of the Borrower to contest such Majority Bank Appraisals or
updates, as provided in this 5.3(c). In the event that the Borrower
shall have been advised that such Majority Bank Appraisals or updates
shall have reduced the Advance Value, then (i) at the request of the
Borrower the Majority Banks shall identify those items of the
Mortgaged Property and the Joint Venture Collateral for which the
Appraised Value shall have been reduced from the prior Appraisals,
and (ii) if it disagrees with such conclusion, the Borrower may,
within ten days after receipt of such advice, by notice in writing
specifying the basis for such disagreement request that the Majority
Bank Appraisals or updates or any of them be reviewed. In this event
at the Borrower's expense the Majority Bank Appraisals or updates or
such of them as the Borrower may specify shall be submitted to the
independent appraisers who prepared the MAI Appraisals most recently
completed with respect to the Mortgaged Property and the Joint
Venture Collateral subject to such Majority Bank Appraisals or
updates or, if any such appraiser is not available to respond to such
submission on a timely basis, to another firm of MAI appraisers
selected by the Majority Banks. In the event that any such
independent appraiser shall advise the Majority Banks within 30 days
following such submission that a Majority Bank Appraisal or update
submitted to such independent appraiser is unreasonable in any of its
assumptions or methodology, then such Majority Bank Appraisal or
update shall be adjusted by the Majority Banks to change such
assumptions or methodology, as the case may be, to those which the
independent appraiser considers reasonable and the Advance Value
shall be adjusted accordingly. In the event that an independent
appraiser does not give such notice within such period with respect
to a Mortgaged Property or an item of Joint Venture Collateral, then
the applicable Majority Bank Appraisal or update shall remain in
effect.
(d) At the written request of the Borrower at any time (but
not more often than once in any period of six consecutive calendar
months) the Agent shall advise the Borrower of the current Appraised
Value of each of the Mortgaged Properties and each item of Joint
Venture Collateral.
3.34. Section 5.4 of the Credit Agreement is amended in its entirety
to read as follows:
5.4. Release of Real Estate Collateral. So long as no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or would
exist immediately after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated by this 5.4), then promptly following receipt by the
Agent of the Borrower's written request for a release of any of the
Mortgaged Property or any of the Joint Venture Collateral accompanied
by a Compliance Certificate prepared on a pro forma basis using the
financial statements of the Borrower most recently provided or
required to be provided under 6.4 or 7.4 adjusted in the best good-
faith estimate of the Borrower to give effect to such release and
demonstrating that no Default or Event of Default with respect to the
covenants referred to therein shall exist after giving effect to such
release, the Agent shall release the lien securing the Obligations on
the Joint Venture Collateral or any Eligible Real Estate included in
the Mortgaged Property that, in either case, is sold or made subject
to Non-recourse Indebtedness by the Borrower, but only if and to the
extent that such lien is no longer required hereunder because of (i)
a reduction at the request of the Borrower of the Total Commitment,
(ii) the delivery by the Borrower to the Agent of replacement
Mortgaged Property, cash, Eligible Short-term Investments or other
Collateral referred to in clause (vi) of 5.1 or (iii) the Advance
Value of the Collateral remaining after giving effect to such release
equals or exceeds the Total Commitment. The Agent shall give each of
the Banks prior notice of any release of Collateral under this 5.4.
Any release by the Agent hereunder shall be without recourse or
warranty of any kind.
3.35. Section 5 of the Credit Agreement is amended by adding thereto
a new 5.7 reading in its entirety as follows:

and interest of the Obligors to and in (but none of their respective
obligations with respect to) the Joint Venture Collateral.

Nominee has made reasonable efforts to comply with such Act
with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

provided for in this Agreement, all in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and the Notes as well as all other sums owing pursuant

encumbrances expressly permitted by the Joint Venture Pledge

Majority Banks on or before each of July 15, August 15 and September
15, 1996 describing its progress in arranging for the discharge and
release of matters described in Schedule 12.1(s) and other title
matters relating to the underlying assets of the Joint Ventures
reasonably objected to in writing by the Majority Banks. With
respect to any title matters raised by the Majority Banks, the
Majority Banks agree to reasonably consider any title clearing
arrangement (including bonding off of any lien) proposed by the
Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, failure by the Borrower to comply with the requirements of
this 7.16 shall cause the borrowing base availability derived from
the Joint Venture Collateral to be zero (0).
3.41. Section 8.1(m) of the Credit Agreement is amended to read in
its entirety as follows:

determining compliance with this 9.5; and provided, further, that in
the case of any item of Mortgaged Property or Joint Venture
Collateral, as the case may be, owned less than one year by the
Borrower, Mortgaged Property and Joint Venture Cash Flow shall be
measured after one fiscal quarter of ownership by multiplying the
Mortgaged Property and Joint Venture Cash Flow for that quarter times
four, after two fiscal quarters of ownership by multiplying the
