Such fee shall be paid to the Administrative Agent prior to, and as a condition to, such extension.

(i)

As of the date of Borrower’s delivery of notice of request to exercise the Option to Extend, and as of the Maturity Date, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and no event or condition which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and Borrower shall so certify in writing;

(ii)

Borrower shall execute or cause the execution of all documents reasonably required by Administrative Agent to exercise the Option to Extend and shall deliver to Administrative Agent, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, such title insurance endorsements reasonably required by Administrative Agent;

(iii)

There shall have occurred no material adverse change, as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, in the financial condition of Borrower or any Guarantor from that which existed as of the later of: (A) the Effective Date; or (B) the date upon which the financial condition of such party was first represented to Administrative Agent;

(iv)

As of the date of Borrower’s delivery of notice of request to exercise the Option to Extend, and as of the Maturity Date, (A) not fewer than three (3) of the Anchor Occupants shall be open and operating for business in the same space such Anchor Occupants occupied on the Effective Date and (B) not less than seventy percent (70%) of the Mall Shop Space

The valuation date of such appraisal shall be within sixty (60) days of the Maturity Date;

(vii)

The Borrower shall have paid the Fees payable under Section 2.2(b).

2.6

INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS ON THE LOAN.

(a) Interest Payments. Interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be due and payable, in the manner provided in Section 2.7, on the first day of each month commencing with the first month after the Effective Date.

(b)

Reserved.

(c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in Sections 2.6(e) below and the payment dates specified in Section 2.6(a), at Requisite Lenders’ discretion at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the principal balance of the Loan then outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loan not paid when due, shall bear interest payable upon demand at the Alternate Rate. All other amounts due Administrative Agent or Lenders (whether directly or for reimbursement) under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents if not paid when due, or if no time period is expressed, if not paid within ten (10) days after demand, shall likewise, at the option of Requisite Lenders, bear interest from and after demand at the Alternate Rate.

(d) Late Fee. Borrower acknowledges that late payment to Administrative Agent will cause Administrative Agent and Lenders to incur costs not contemplated by this Agreement. Such costs include, without limitation, processing and accounting charges. Therefore, if Borrower fails timely to pay any sum due and payable hereunder through the Maturity Date (other than payment of the entire outstanding balance of the Loan on the Maturity Date), unless waived by Administrative Agent, a late charge of three cents ($.03) for each dollar of any such principal payment, interest or other charge due hereon and which is not paid within fifteen (15) days after such payment is due, shall be charged by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lenders) and paid by Borrower for the purpose of defraying the expense incident to handling such delinquent payment. Borrower and Administrative Agent agree that this late charge represents a reasonable sum considering all of the circumstances existing on the date hereof and represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Administrative Agent and Lenders will incur by reason of late payment. Borrower and Administrative Agent further agree that proof of actual damages would be costly and inconvenient. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of the default with respect to the overdue installment, and shall not prevent Administrative Agent from exercising any of the other rights available hereunder or any other Loan Document. Such late charge shall be paid without prejudice to any other rights of Administrative Agent.

(e) Computation of Interest. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest or fees accrue and a year of three hundred sixty (360) days on the principal balance of the Loan outstanding from time to time. In computing interest

ws4E6.tmp

on the Loan, the date of the making of a disbursement under the Loan shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.6, interest in respect of the Loan shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

(f) Effective Rate. Provided no Default exists under this Agreement, the "Effective Rate" upon which interest shall be calculated for the Loan shall, from and after the Effective Date of this Agreement, be one or more of the following:

(i)

for those portions of the principal balance of the Notes which are not Fixed Rate Portions, the Effective Rate shall be the Variable Rate.

(ii)

for those portions of the principal balance of the Notes which are Fixed Rate Portions, the Effective Rate for the Fixed Rate Period thereof shall be the Fixed Rate selected by Borrower and set in accordance with the provisions hereof, provided, however, if any of the transactions necessary for the calculation of interest at any Fixed Rate requested or selected by Borrower should be or become prohibited or unavailable to Administrative Agent, or, if in Administrative Agent 's good faith judgment, it is not possible or practical for Administrative Agent to set a Fixed Rate for a Fixed Rate Portion and Fixed Rate Period as requested or selected by Borrower, the Effective Rate for such Fixed Rate Portion shall remain at or revert to the Variable Rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, during such time as a Default exists under this Agreement; or from and after the date on which all sums owing under the Notes become due and payable by acceleration or otherwise; or from and after the date on which the Collateral or any portion thereof or interest therein, is sold, transferred, mortgaged, assigned, or encumbered, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, or by operation of law or otherwise, without Administrative Agent's prior written consent (whether or not the sums owing under the Notes become due and payable by acceleration); or from and after the Maturity Date, then at the option of Requisite Lenders in each case, the interest rate applicable to the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be the Alternate Rate.

(g) Selection of Fixed Rate. Provided no Default or Potential Default exists under this Agreement, Borrower, at its option and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, may request a Fixed Rate as the Effective Rate for calculating interest on the portion of the unpaid principal balance and for the period selected in accordance with and subject to the following procedures and conditions, provided, however, that Borrower may not have in effect at any one time more than five (5) Fixed Rates:

(i)

Borrower shall deliver to the Minneapolis Loan Center of Administrative Agent, 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00^xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000, with a copy to: Administrative Agent, Real Estate Group, 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Loan Administration Manager, or such other addresses as Administrative Agent shall designate, an original or facsimile Fixed Rate Notice no later than 9:00 A.M. (Minnesota time), and not less than three (3) nor more than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed Fixed Rate Period for each Fixed Rate Portion. Any Fixed Rate Notice pursuant to this subsection (i) is irrevocable.

Administrative Agent is authorized to rely upon the telephonic request and acceptance of Xxxxxxx W.A. Xxxxxxx, Jr. or Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, in their respective positions as Senior Vice President of the general partner of Borrower, as Borrower's duly authorized agents, or such additional authorized agents as Borrower shall designate in writing to Administrative Agent. Borrower's telephonic notices, requests and acceptances shall be directed to such officers of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may from time to time designate.

ws4E6.tmp

(ii)

Borrower may elect (A) to convert Variable Rate advances to a Fixed Rate Portion, or (B) to convert a matured Fixed Rate Portion into a new Fixed Rate Portion, provided, however, that the aggregate amount of the advance being converted into or continued as a Fixed Rate Portion shall comply with the definition thereof as to Dollar amount. The conversion of a matured Fixed Rate Portion back to a Variable Rate or to a new Fixed Rate Portion shall occur on the last Business Day of the Fixed Rate Period relating to such Fixed Rate Portion. Each Fixed Rate Notice shall specify (A) the amount of the Fixed Rate Portion, (B) the Fixed Rate Period, and (C) the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.

(iii)

Upon receipt of a Fixed Rate Notice in the proper form requesting a Fixed Rate Portion advance under subsections (i) and (ii) above, Administrative Agent shall determine the Fixed Rate applicable to the Fixed Rate Period for such Fixed Rate Portion two (2) Business Days prior to the beginning of such Fixed Rate Period. Each determination by Administrative Agent of the Fixed Rate shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto in the absence of manifest error. Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrower and each Lender (by facsimile) an acknowledgment of receipt and confirmation of the Fixed Rate Notice; provided, however, that failure to provide such acknowledgment of receipt and confirmation of the Fixed Rate Notice to Borrower or any Lender shall not affect the validity of such rate.

(iv)

If Borrower does not make a timely election to convert all or a portion of a matured Fixed Rate Portion into a new Fixed Rate Portion in accordance with this Section 2.6(f) above, such Fixed Rate Portion shall be automatically, on the last day of the current Fixed Rate period therefor, be continued as a Fixed Rate Portion having a Fixed Rate Period of one (1) month.

(h) Fixed Rate Taxes, Regulatory Costs and Reserve Percentages. Upon Administrative Agent's demand, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, in addition to all other amounts which may be, or become, due and payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any and all Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs, to the extent they are not internalized by calculation of a Fixed Rate. Further, at Administrative Agent's option, the Fixed Rate shall be automatically adjusted by adjusting the Reserve Percentage, as determined by Administrative Agent in its prudent banking judgment, from the date of imposition (or subsequent date selected by Administrative Agent) of any such Regulatory Costs. Administrative Agent shall give Borrower notice of any Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs as soon as practicable after their occurrence, but Borrower shall be liable for any Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs regardless of whether or when notice is so given

(i) Fixed Rate Price Adjustment. Borrower acknowledges that prepayment or acceleration of a Fixed Rate Portion during a Fixed Rate Period shall result in Lenders' incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities. Therefore, on the date a Fixed Rate Portion is prepaid or the date all sums payable hereunder become due and payable, by acceleration or otherwise ("Price Adjustment Date"), Borrower will pay Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender (in addition to all other sums then owing to Lenders) an amount ("Fixed Rate Price Adjustment") equal to the then present value of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the Fixed Rate Portion for the remainder of the Fixed Rate Period at the Fixed Rate set on the Fixed Rate Commencement Date, less (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same Fixed Rate Portion for the same period if the Fixed Rate were set on the Price Adjustment Date at the Applicable LIBO Rate in effect on the Price Adjustment Date. The present value shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, using as a discount rate the LIBO Rate quoted on the Price Adjustment Date.

ws4E6.tmp

By initialing this provision where indicated below, Borrower confirms that Lenders' agreement to make the Loan at the interest rates and on the other terms set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents constitutes adequate and valuable consideration, given individual weight by Borrower, for this agreement

Borrower Initials.

_______________

(j) Purchase, Sale and Matching of Funds. Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following: (a) Lenders have no obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of a LIBO Rate as a basis for calculating a Fixed Rate or Fixed Rate Price Adjustment; (b) a LIBO Rate is used merely as a reference in determining a Fixed Rate and Fixed Rate Price Adjustment; and (c) Borrower has accepted a LIBO Rate as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating a Fixed Rate and a Fixed Rate Price Adjustment. Borrower further agrees to pay the Fixed Rate Price Adjustment, Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs, if any, whether or not any Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

2.7

PAYMENTS.

(a) Manner and Time of Payment. All payments of principal, interest and fees hereunder payable to Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall be made without condition or reservation of right and free of set-off or counterclaim, in Dollars and by wire transfer (pursuant to Administrative Agent's written wire transfer instructions) of immediately available funds, to Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender as applicable, not later than 11:00 A.M.

(b) Payments on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, payments shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder and of any fees due under this Agreement, as the case may be.

(c) Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower may, upon not less than three (3) Business Days' prior written notice to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M.

In the event of a prepayment of any Fixed Rate Portion, Borrower shall concurrently pay any Fixed Rate Price Adjustment payable in respect thereof. Any principal balance reduction shall reduce Lenders' Commitment by a like amount, and any such amounts repaid by Borrower may not be reborrowed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, but subject to Section 2.12 of this Agreement, during the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on November __, 2009, Borrower may not prepay any portion of the Loan, and during the period between November ___, 2009 and April 30, 2010, Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the Loan upon payment of a prepayment fee equal to 25/100 percent (0.25%) of the principal amount of the prepayment.

2.8 FULL REPAYMENT AND RECONVEYANCE. Upon receipt of all sums owing and outstanding under the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall issue a full reconveyance of the Property from the lien of the Mortgage; provided, however, that all of the following conditions shall be satisfied at the time of, and with respect to, such reconveyance: (a) Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, shall have received all escrow, closing and recording costs, the costs of preparing and delivering such reconveyance and any sums then due and payable under the Loan Documents; and (b) Administrative Agent shall have received a written release satisfactory to Administrative Agent of any set aside letter, letter of credit or other form of undertaking which Administrative Agent or any Lender has issued to any surety, Governmental Authority or any other party in connection with the Loan and/or the Property. Lenders' obligations to make further disbursements under the Loan shall terminate as to any portion of

ws4E6.tmp

the Loan undisbursed as of the date of issuance of such full release or reconveyance, and any commitment of Lenders to lend any undisbursed portion of the Loan shall be canceled.

2.9 LENDERS' ACCOUNTING. Administrative Agent shall maintain a loan account (the "Loan Account") on its books in which shall be recorded (a) the names and addresses and the Pro Rata Shares of the commitment of each of the Lenders, and principal amount of the Loan owing to each Lender from time to time, and (b) all repayments of principal and payments of accrued interest, as well as payments of fees required to be paid pursuant to this Agreement. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Administrative Agent's customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. Monthly or at such other interval as is customary with Administrative Agent's practice, Administrative Agent will render a statement of the Loan Account to Borrower and will deliver a copy thereof to each Lender. Each such statement shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower in all respects as to all matters reflected therein (absent manifest error).

2.10 SECURED SWAP OBLIGATIONS. Lenders agree that the Mortgage shall secure the payment of the Loan and the payment of Borrower's obligations under any Secured Swap Obligations on a pari passu basis.

Not later than three (3) Business Days following the Reference Date, Borrower must deliver satisfactory evidence to Administrative Agent that as of the Reference Date not less than seventy percent (70%) of the Mall Shop Space is open and operating for business and leased to and occupied by tenants who are paying rent (the "Occupancy Test"), provided, however, if Borrower fails the Occupancy Test on the Reference Date but delivers satisfactory evidence to Administrative Agent not later than forty-five (45) days after the Reference Date that the requirements of the Occupancy Test have been met, then the failure to meet the Occupancy Test on the Reference Date shall not constitute a Default under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 3. DISBURSEMENT

ARTICLE 10. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; INTERCREDITOR PROVISIONS

10.1

APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender's behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents for the benefit of the Lenders.

(b) Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.

(c) Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms "Administrative Agent", "Agent", "agent" and similar terms in the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article 8. The Administrative Agent will also furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document.

(e) As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of Borrower's

ws4E6.tmp

obligations hereunder), Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the obligations of Borrower; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Requirements of Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any right or remedy it may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Potential Default or Default if the Requisite Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent not to do so. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or the Other Related Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders.

10.2 XXXXX FARGO AS LENDER. Xxxxx Fargo, as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Xxxxx Fargo in each case in its individual capacity. Xxxxx Fargo and its affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders. Further, the Administrative Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Xxxxx Fargo or its affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower, other loan parties, other subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

10.3

LOAN DISBURSEMENT.

(a) The Loan shall be advanced in one (1) disbursement. Each Lender shall make available to Administrative Agent (or the funding bank or entity designated by Administrative Agent), the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement in immediately available funds not later than the times designated in Section 10.3(b). Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender not later than the close of business (San Francisco time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Funding Date in respect of any disbursement that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender shall make such amount available to Administrative Agent. If any Lender does not notify Administrative Agent of its intention not to make available its Pro Rata Share of such disbursement as described above, but does not for any reason make available to Administrative Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, such Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate. In any case where a Lender does not for any reason make available to Administrative Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, fund to Borrower such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement. If Administrative Agent funds to Borrower such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement and if such Lender subsequently pays to Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement. Nothing in this Section 10.3(a) shall alter the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder in respect of a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Pro Rata Advance.

(b) Requests by Administrative Agent for funding by Lenders of disbursements will be made by telecopy. Each Lender shall make the amount of its disbursement available to Administrative

ws4E6.tmp

Agent in Dollars and in immediately available funds, to such bank and account, in El Segundo, California (to such bank and account in such other place) as Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 9:00 A.M. (San Francisco time) on the date designated by Administrative Agent with respect to such disbursement (the "Funding Date"), but in no event earlier than two (2) Business Days following Lender's receipt of the applicable Application for Payment.

(c) Nothing in this Section 10.3 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Pro Rata Share of disbursements on the Funding Date, nor shall Administrative Agent or any Lender be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to perform its obligations to make any disbursement hereunder, and the Commitment of any Lender shall not be increased or decreased as a result of the failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make a disbursement.

10.4 DISTRIBUTION AND APPORTIONMENT OF PAYMENTS; DEFAULTING LENDERS.

(a) Subject to Section 10.4(b) below, payments actually received by Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders shall be paid to them promptly after receipt thereof by Administrative Agent, but in any event within two (2) Business Days, provided that Administrative Agent shall pay to Lenders interest thereon, at the lesser of (i) the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) the rate of interest applicable to the Loan, from the Business Day following receipt of such funds by Administrative Agent until such funds are paid in immediately available funds to Lenders. All payments of principal, interest, and other payments under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents shall be allocated among such of Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares in the Loan or otherwise as provided herein or as separately agreed by Administrative Agent and any Lender. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute, but in any event within two (2) Business Days, to each Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or on the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that Administrative Agent shall in any event not be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments and seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby. The order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of Lenders as among themselves and may at any time or from time to time be changed by Lenders as they may elect, in writing in accordance with this Agreement, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower or any other Person. All payments or other sums received by Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders shall not constitute property or assets of the Administrative Agent and shall be held by Administrative Agent, solely in its capacity as agent for itself and the other Lenders, subject to the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, until such time as a Defaulting Lender has funded its Pro Rata Share of a Protective Advance or prior Loan disbursements which was previously a Non-Pro Rata Advance, or all other Lenders have received payment in full (whether by repayment or prepayment) of the amounts due in respect of such Non-Pro Rata Advance, all of the indebtedness and obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be subordinated in right of payment, as provided in the following sentence, to the prior payment in full of all principal, interest and fees in respect of all Non-Pro Rata Advances in which the Defaulting Lender has not funded its Pro Rata Share (such principal, interest and fees being referred to as "Senior Loans"). All amounts paid by Borrower and otherwise due to be applied to the indebtedness and obligations owing to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms hereof shall be distributed by Administrative Agent to the other Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Loan (recalculated for purposes hereof to exclude the Defaulting Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Loan), until all Senior Loans have been paid in full. This provision governs only the relationship among Administrative Agent, each Defaulting Lender, and the other Lenders; nothing hereunder shall limit the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement. The provisions of this section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether a Default occurs and is then continuing, and notwithstanding (a) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (b) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments or (c) the suspension of such Defaulting Lender's right to vote on matters which are subject to the consent or approval of Requisite Lenders or all

ws4E6.tmp

Lenders. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to (i) withhold or setoff, and to apply to the payment of the defaulted amount and any related interest, any amounts to be paid to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. In addition, the Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities and costs, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate as set forth in the Notes, which they may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of the Defaulting Lender's failure or refusal to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

10.5 PRO RATA TREATMENT. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from Lenders shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the fees shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Agreement shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of the Loan by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loan held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of the Loan the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall not b e held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments in effect at the time the Loan was made, then such payment shall be applied to the Loan in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Loan being held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; and (c) each payment of interest on the Loan by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on the Loan then due and payable to the respective Lenders.

10.6 SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC. Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of the obligations of Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan, equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares in the Loan, whether received by voluntary payment, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any or all of such obligations, (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such obligations held by it which is greater than its Pro Rata Share in the Loan of the payments on account of such obligations, the one receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such obligations shall be applied ratably in accordance with such Pro Rata Shares; provided, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to that party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 10.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.

10.7

COLLATERAL MATTERS; PROTECTIVE ADVANCES.

(a) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, while no Default exists, to take any action with respect to any Collateral, Loan Documents or Other Related Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents.

(b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all of obligations of Borrower hereunder; (ii) as expressly permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; and (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Lenders

ws4E6.tmp

(or such greater number of Lenders as this Agreement or any other Loan Document may expressly provide). Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent's authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section.

(c) Upon any sale and transfer of Collateral which is expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and upon at least five (5) Business Days' prior written request by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent's opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of Borrower or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan Party in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, including (without limitation) the proceeds of such sale or transfer, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. In the event of any sale or transfer of Collateral, or any foreclosure with respect to any of the Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to deduct all of the expenses reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Administrative Agent in this Section or in any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Administrative Agent's own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except to the extent resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(e) The Administrative Agent may make, and shall be reimbursed by the Lenders (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares) to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower for, Protective Advances during any one calendar year with respect to any Property that is Collateral up to the sum of (i) amounts expended to pay real estate taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon such Property; (ii) amounts expended to pay insurance premiums for policies of insurance related to such Property; and (iii) $500,000.00. Protective Advances in excess of said sum during any calendar year for any Property that is Collateral shall require the consent of the Requisite Lenders. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all Protective Advances.

(f) Each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against Borrower or any other obligor hereunder under the Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents with respect to exercising claims against or rights in the Collateral without the written consent of Requisite Lenders.

10.8 POST-FORECLOSURE PLANS. If all or any portion of the Collateral is acquired by the Administrative Agent as a result of a foreclosure or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of the obligations of Borrower hereunder, the title to any such Collateral, or any portion thereof, shall be held in the name of the Administrative Agent or a nominee or subsidiary of the Administrative Agent, as agent, for the ratable benefit of all Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such Collateral (a "Post-Foreclosure Plan"), which shall be subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders. In accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, the Administrative Agent shall manage, operate, repair, administer, complete, construct, restore or otherwise deal with the Collateral acquired, and shall administer all transactions relating thereto, including, without limitation, employing a management agent, leasing agent

ws4E6.tmp

and other agents, contractors and employees, including agents for the sale of such Collateral, and the collecting of rents and other sums from such Collateral and paying the expenses of such Collateral. Actions taken by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral, which are not specifically provided for in the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan or reasonably incidental thereto, shall require the written consent of the Requisite Lenders by way of supplement to such Post-Foreclosure Plan. Upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Pro Rata Share) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan in connection with the construction, operation, management, maintenance, leasing and sale of such Collateral. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall render or cause to be rendered to each Lender, on a monthly basis, an income and expense statement for such Collateral, and each Lender shall promptly contribute its Pro Rata Share of any operating loss for such Collateral, and such other expenses and operating reserves as the Administrative Agent shall deem reasonably necessary pursuant to and in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan. To the extent there is net operating income from such Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall, in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to the Lenders. All such distributions shall be made to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. The Lenders acknowledge and agree that if title to any Collateral is obtained by the Administrative Agent or its nominee, such Collateral will not be held as a permanent investment but will be liquidated as soon as practicable. The Administrative Agent shall undertake to sell such Collateral, at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Requisite Lenders reasonably shall determine to be most advantageous to the Lenders. Any purchase money mortgage or deed of trust taken in connection with the disposition of such Collateral in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall name the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Lenders, as the beneficiary or mortgagee. In such case, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall enter into an agreement with respect to such purchase money mortgage or deed of trust defining the rights of the Lenders in the same Pro Rata Shares as provided hereunder, which agreement shall be in all material respects similar to this Article insofar as the same is appropriate or applicable.

10.9 APPROVALS OF LENDERS. All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender's determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Administrative Agent's recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of the Administrative Agent (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.

10.10 NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Potential Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Potential Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Potential Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a "notice of default". Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a "notice of default," the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

10.11 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S RELIANCE, ETC. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its

ws4E6.tmp

or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any Collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in any such Collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

10.12 INDEMNIFICATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender's respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a "Lender") in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents (collectively, "Indemnifiable Amounts"); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to the Administrative Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents and/or collect any obligation of Borrower hereunder, any "lender liability" suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Hazardous Materials Laws. Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative

ws4E6.tmp

Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

10.13 LENDER CREDIT DECISION, ETC. Each Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties to such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties or Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges that the Administrative Agent's legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to such Lender.

10.14 SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default or Potential Default exists, be subject to the Borrower's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges

ws4E6.tmp

and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents. After any Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 10. shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

10.15

INTENTIONALLY DELETED.

10.16 NO SET-OFFS. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that the exercise by any Lender of offset, set-off, banker's lien or similar rights against any deposit account or other property or asset of Borrower, whether or not located in California, could result under certain laws in significant impairment of the ability of all Lenders to recover any further amounts in respect of the Loan. Therefore, each Lender agrees not to charge or offset any amount owed to it by Borrower against any of the accounts, property or assets of Borrower or any of its affiliates held by such Lender without the prior written approval of Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders.

Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

11.13

SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

(a) Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all the Lenders (and any such assignment or transfer to which all of the Lenders have not consented shall be void).

(b) Participations. Any Lender may at any time grant to an affiliate of such Lender, or one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a "Participant") participating interests in its Commitment or the obligations owing to such Lender hereunder. No Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of it obligations hereunder, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided however, such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase such Lender's Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal on the Loan or a portion thereof owing to such Lender, or (iii) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b).

(c) Assignments. Any Lender may with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld) at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an "Assignee") all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes; provided, however, (i) no such consent by the Borrower shall be required (x) if a Default or Potential Default shall exist or (y) in the case of an assignment to

ws4E6.tmp

another Lender or an affiliate of another Lender; (ii) any partial assignment shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000.00 and after giving effect to such assignment the assigning Lender retains a Commitment, or if the Commitments have been terminated, holds a Note having an outstanding principal balance, of at least $5,000,000.00, and (iii) each such assignment shall be effected by means of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be deemed to be a Lender party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Commitment as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangement so the new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $4,500.00. Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the Borrower, or any of its respective Affiliates or subsidiaries.

(d) Tax Withholding. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first day on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, shall furnish the Administrative Agent and Borrower with a properly completed executed copy of either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and any additional form (or such other form) as is necessary to claim complete exemption from United States withholding taxes on all payments hereunder. At all times each Lender shall own or beneficially own a Note, such Lender shall (i) promptly provide to the Administrative Agent and Borrower a new Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and any additional form (or such other form) (or any successor form or forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form and comparable statements in accordance with applicable United States laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and completed by such Lender, and (ii) comply at all times with all applicable United States laws and regulations, including all provisions of any applicable tax treaty, with regard to any withholding tax exemption claimed with respect to any payments on the Loan. If any Lender cannot deliver such form, then Borrower may withhold from payments due under the Loan Documents such amounts as Borrower is able to determine from accurate information provided by such Lender are required by the Internal Revenue Code.

(e) Federal Reserve Bank Assignments. In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of the Section, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Section, any Lender may at any time and from time to time, pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge of assignment shall release such Lender from its obligation thereunder.

(f) Information to Assignee, Etc. A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower, any subsidiary or any other Loan Party in the possession of such Lender from time to time to Assignees and Participants (including prospective Assignees and Participants). In connection with such negotiation, execution and delivery, Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent and Lenders to communicate all information and documentation related to the Loan (whether to Borrower or to any Participant, Assignee, legal counsel, appraiser or other necessary party) directly by e-mail, fax, or other electronic means used to transmit information.

11.14 CAPITAL ADEQUACY. If any Lender or any Participant in the Loan determines that compliance with any law or regulation or with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or such Participant, or any corporation controlling such Lender

ws4E6.tmp

or such Participant, as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender's or such Participant's or such corporation's Commitments or its making or maintaining Loans below the rate which such Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant could have achieved but for such compliance (taking into account the policies of such Lender or such Participant or corporation with regard to capital), then the Borrower shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) calendar days after written demand by such Lender or such Participant, pay to such Lender or such Participant additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant to the extent that such Lender or such Participant determines such increase in capital is allocable to such Lender's or such Participant's obligations hereunder.

11.19 SEVERABILITY. If any provision or obligation under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been a part of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, provided, however, that if the rate of interest or any other amount payable under the Notes or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the right of collectibility therefor, are declared to be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable, Lenders' obligations to make advances under the Loan Documents shall not be enforceable by Borrower.

11.20

Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) if a Default occurs, nothing contained herein shall in any way prevent or hinder the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in the enforcement or foreclosure of any Lien securing any of the Obligations, or in the pursuit or enforcement of any right, remedy or judgment against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or any of their respective assets; and (b) the General Partner shall be fully liable to Administrative Agent and the Lenders to the same extent that the General Partner would be liable absent the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.29 for all of the following: (i) for fraud or willful misrepresentation by Borrower, General Partner and any other guarantor of the Loan (to the full extent of losses suffered by Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders by reason of such fraud or willful misrepresentations), (ii) for the retention of any rental income or other income in excess of operating expenses of the Property collected by Borrower after Administrative Agent has given Borrower any notice that Borrower is in default under any of the Loan Documents and that Administrative Agent has exercised its option to accelerate the maturity of the Note, foreclose or require the foreclosure of the liens securing payment thereof or exercise any of its other rights, remedies and recourses under the Loan Documents (to the full extent of the rental income or other income in excess of such operating expenses collected by Borrower after the giving of any such notice), (iii) for the fair market value, as of the time of the giving of any notice referred to in (ii) above, of any “Collateral” (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) removed or disposed of by Borrower (other than in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage) after the giving of any notice referred to in (ii) above, and (iv) for the misapplication by Borrower (contrary to the provisions of the Mortgage) of (x) any proceeds paid prior to any such foreclosure under any insurance policies by reason of damage, loss or destruction to any portion of the property covered by the Mortgage (to the full extent of such proceeds so misapplied), or (y) any proceeds or awards resulting from the condemnation, prior to any such foreclosure, of all or any part of the property covered by the Mortgage (to the full extent of such proceeds or awards so misapplied).
