R E C I T A L S:

A. APPLE ORCHARD, L.L.C., a Michigan limited liability company; SUN LAKEVIEW LLC, a Michigan limited liability company; and SUN TAMPA EAST, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (collectively, the "Borrower"), desires to borrow funds and obtain other financial accommodations from the Bank, including, without limitation, a loan evidenced by a promissory note from the Borrower to the Bank, dated _____________________, in the principal amount of TWENTY SEVEN MILLION and 00/100 Dollars ($27,000,000.00) (as amended, restated or replaced from time to time, the "Note").

X. Xxxxxxxxx has granted to the Bank a mortgage (the "Mortgage") covering certain real property situated in the State of Ohio, as more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the "Property"), as security for the Loan evidenced by the Note.

C. Mortgagor has demised or hereafter will demise the Property or a part thereof by a certain lease or leases for certain terms.

D. The Bank, as a condition for making the Loan secured by the Mortgage, has required an assignment of the leases and the rents, issues and profits derived from the use of the Property and every part thereof, as additional security for the payment of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Xxxxxxxxx agrees as follows:

A G R E E M E N T S:

In order to provide additional security for the payment of the principal and interest of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, and all other amounts payable by Mortgagor thereunder, and any

and all extensions and renewals thereof, however evidenced, and the performance of the covenants and conditions hereof, Xxxxxxxxx hereby covenants and agrees to and with the Bank as follows:

Mortgagor does hereby sell, assign, transfer and set over unto the Bank all the rents, profits and income under all leases or occupancy agreements or arrangements, however evidenced or denominated, upon or affecting the Property, as defined in the Mortgage (including any extensions, amendments or renewals thereof), whether such rents, profits and income are due or are to become due, including all such leases in existence or coming into existence during the period this assignment is in effect. This assignment shall run with the land until this assignment is discharged in full and be good and valid as against Xxxxxxxxx and those claiming by, under or through Mortgagor, from the date of recording of this assignment. This assignment shall continue to be operative during the foreclosure or any other proceedings taken to enforce the Mortgage. In the event of a foreclosure sale which results in a deficiency, this assignment shall stand as security during the redemption period for the payment of such deficiency. This assignment is given as collateral security only and does not and shall not be construed as obligating the Bank to perform any of the covenants or undertakings required to be performed by Mortgagor in any leases.

Mortgagor covenants and agrees not to cancel, accept a surrender of, modify or alter (orally or in writing), reduce the rental under or consent to the assignment or subletting of the lessee's interest in, any lease affecting the Property, except in the ordinary course of business and on commercially reasonable terms, or to make any other assignment, pledge or other disposition of such leases, or any of them, or of the rents, issues and profits derived from the use of the Property. Any of the above acts, if done without the written consent of the Bank, shall be null and void.

Mortgagor warrants and represents that all leases or copies of leases which have been delivered to the Bank are in full force and effect and there are no defaults existing thereunder, and that Mortgagor has not: (a) executed any prior assignments presently subsisting of any leases or rentals pertaining to the Property, (b) performed any acts or executed any other instruments which might prevent or limit the Bank's operating under any of the terms and conditions of the Mortgage, (c) executed or granted any modification whatever of any lease pertaining to the Property which has not been disclosed to the Bank, or (d) subordinated any lease to the lien of the Mortgage, except on terms acceptable to the Bank.

Until the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Mortgage or until the Mortgagor shall default in the performance of any its obligations under this assignment, Mortgagor may receive, collect and enjoy the rents and income from the Property. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Mortgage or a default by the Mortgagor in the performance of any its obligations under this assignment, the Bank shall be entitled to, at its option, to enter upon the Property, or any part thereof, by its officers, agents, or employees, and: (a) collect the rents and income from the Property as long as an Event of Default under the Mortgage or a default by the Mortgagor in the performance of any its obligations under this assignment exists and during the pendency of any foreclosure proceedings and, if there is a deficiency, during any redemption period, (b) rent or lease the Property or any portion thereof upon such terms and for such time as it may deem best, (c) operate or maintain the Property, (d) maintain proceedings to recover rents or possession of the Property from any tenant or trespasser, and apply the net proceeds of such rent and income, after payment of all proper charges and expenses, to the following purposes: (1) payment of all of the costs and expenses incurred by the Bank in exercising its rights under this paragraph; (2) payment of interest and principal secured by the Mortgage; (3) payment of all other sums secured hereby; (4) payment of expenses of preserving the Property, including taxes and insurance premiums. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank, in its sole discretion, may change the priorities set forth above for the application of the net proceeds of

such rent and income. The Mortgagor hereby authorizes the Bank in general to perform all acts necessary for the operation and maintenance of the Property in the same manner and to the same extent that the Mortgagor might reasonably so act. The Bank shall only be accountable for money actually received by it pursuant to the assignment contained in this paragraph. Such entry and taking possession of the Property, or any part thereof, by the Bank, may be made by actual entry and possession, or by written notice served personally upon or sent by certified mail to the last address of the Mortgagor appearing on the records of the Bank, as the Bank may elect, and no further authorization or notice shall be required. BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO NOTICE, OTHER THAN THE NOTICE PROVIDED ABOVE AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO ANY HEARING JUDICIAL OR OTHERWISE PRIOR TO THE BANK EXERCISING ITS RIGHTS UNDER THE ASSIGNMENT CONTAINED IN THIS PARAGRAPH.

The Bank and its duly authorized agents shall be entitled to enter the Property for the purpose of delivering any and all such notices and other communications to the tenants and occupiers thereof or to take such other steps as shall be necessary or desirable in the Bank's discretion to exercise its rights hereunder, and the Bank and its agents shall have absolutely no liability to Mortgagor arising therefrom, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Bank shall not, however, be obligated to give any tenant or occupier of the Property any notice by personal delivery and the Bank may, in its sole discretion, deliver all such notices and communications by ordinary first-class U.S. mail, postage prepaid, or otherwise.

The Mortgagor irrevocably consents that any lessee or lessees under any leases covering the Property, upon demand and notice from the Bank of Mortgagor's default under the Mortgage or this assignment, shall pay all rents, issues and profits under such leases to the Bank without any obligation upon any such lessee or lessees for the determination of the actual existence of any default.

In the event that Mortgagor obstructs the Bank in its efforts to collect the rents and income from the Property, or after requested by the Bank, unreasonably refuses, fails or neglects to assist the Bank in collecting such rent and income, the Bank shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver of the Property and of the income, rents and profits therefrom, with such powers as the court making such appointment may confer.

The Mortgagor covenants and agrees to perform and discharge each and every obligation, covenant, and agreement required to be performed by the landlord under all leases covering the Property, and should the Mortgagor fail so to do, then the Bank, but without obligation to do so, and without releasing the Mortgagor from any obligation hereof, may make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as the Bank may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to bind the Bank to perform any of the terms and provisions contained in the leases, or otherwise to impose any obligation upon the Bank. Any default by the Mortgagor in the performance of any of the obligations contained in this paragraph, which is not cured within 30 days after notice thereof from the Bank to Mortgagor, or, if the default is of a kind which cannot be cured within 30 days, if Mortgagor fails to undertake the cure of such default within 30 days after notice thereof from the Bank to Mortgagor and thereafter diligently pursue such cure and complete it within a reasonable time, shall constitute and be deemed to be a default under the terms of the Mortgage and this assignment entitling the Bank to exercise the rights and remedies provided by the Mortgage and this assignment.

9.	The Bank shall at no time have any obligation whatever to attempt to collect rent from any tenant or occupier of the Property notwithstanding that such tenants and occupiers may not be paying rent to

either Mortgagor or to the Bank. Further, the Bank shall at no time have any obligation whatever to enforce any other obligations owed by tenants or occupiers of the Property to Mortgagor. No action taken by the Bank under the Mortgage or this assignment shall put the Bank in the position of a "mortgagee in possession."

10.

Mortgagor shall at no time collect advance rent under any lease upon, affecting or pertaining to the Property or any part thereof in excess of one month (other than as a security deposit) and the Bank shall not be bound in any respect by any rent prepayment made or received in violation of the terms hereof.

11.	The Bank shall have the right to assign the Mortgagor's right, title and interest in all leases covering the Property to any subsequent holder of the Mortgage or this assignment, and to assign the same to any person acquiring title to the Property through foreclosure or otherwise.

12.	The rights and remedies of the Bank under this instrument are cumulative and are not in lieu of but are in addition to any other rights or remedies which the Bank shall have under the Mortgage, this assignment or under any loan agreement between the parties hereto or under applicable law.

13.	All covenants and agreements contained herein shall apply to and bind the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the respective parties.
