§2.1 [Intentionally Omitted.]

§2.2 Commitment to Lend Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Banks severally agrees to lend to the Borrower (the “Loans”), and the Borrower may borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the Closing Date and the Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Agent given in accordance with §2.7, such sums as are requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in §7.11 up to a maximum aggregate principal amount Outstanding not to exceed the lesser of (i) such Bank’s Commitment, and (ii) such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of the sum of (a) Total Development Costs plus (b) forty-five (45%) the Joint Venture Value, or as otherwise agreed to in writing by Agent and Borrower pursuant to §5.5 in the event that the Joint Venture Interests are pledged to Agent as contemplated in §5.2(c)(i), provided, that, in all events no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Bank’s Commitment Percentage. Each request for a Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions set forth in §10 and §11, in the case of the initial Loan, and §11, in the case of all other Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such request.

The outstanding amount of the Loans set forth on Agent’s Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to each Bank, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on Agent’s Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Note when due. By delivery of the Notes, there shall not be deemed to have occurred, and there has not otherwise occurred, any payment, satisfaction or novation of the indebtedness evidenced by the “Notes” as defined in the Original Credit Agreement, which indebtedness is instead allocated among the Banks as of the date hereof and evidenced by the Notes in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.

(b) Each LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the date on which such LIBOR Rate Loan is repaid or is converted to a Base Rate Loan at the rate per annum equal to the sum of three and one-half percent (3.50%) plus the LIBOR Rate determined for such Interest Period; provided, however, during an Out of Balance Event existing up to and including June 30, 2010 each LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest at the rate equal to the sum of five percent (5.0%) plus the LIBOR Rate determined for such Interest Period; provided, further, during an Out of Balance Event existing after June 30, 2010, then such LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest at the rate equal to the sum of six and one-half percent (6.5%) plus the LIBOR Rate determined for such Interest Period.

§2.5 Funds for Loans.

(a) Not later than 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Loan, each of the Banks will make available to the Agent, at the Agent’s Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans which may be disbursed pursuant to §2.2. Upon receipt from each such Bank of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §10 and §11 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of Loans, made available to the Agent by the Banks, by crediting such amount to the account of the Borrower maintained at the Agent’s Head Office or by transferring such amount to an account designated by Borrower. The failure or refusal of any Bank to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Loans shall not relieve any other Bank from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of such other Bank’s Commitment Percentage of any requested Loans, including any additional Loans that may be requested subject to the terms and conditions hereof to provide funds to replace those not advanced by the Bank so failing or refusing. The Borrower may by notice received by the Agent no later than the Drawdown Date refuse to accept any Loan which is not fully funded in accordance with the Borrower’s Loan Request subject to the terms of §2.7. In the event of any such failure or refusal, the Banks not so failing or refusing shall be entitled to a priority position as against the Bank or Banks so failing or refusing for such Loans as provided in §12.5.

(b) Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any Bank prior to the applicable Drawdown Date that such Bank will not make available to the Agent such Bank’s pro rata share of a proposed Loan, the Agent may in its discretion assume that such Bank has made such share of the proposed Loan available to Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Agent may, if it chooses, in reliance upon such assumption make such Loan available to Borrower, and such Bank shall be liable to the Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Bank does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Bank or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Bank at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

§2.6 Unused Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages a facility unused fee calculated at the rate per annum as set forth below on the daily amount by which the Total Commitment exceeds the Outstanding Loans during each day of a calendar quarter or portion thereof commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Maturity Date. The facility unused fee shall be calculated for each day based on the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (a) the daily amount of the Outstanding Loans during each day of such quarter to (b) the Total Commitment, and if such ratio is less than or equal to fifty percent (50%), the facility unused fee shall be payable at the rate of 0.45% (or 45 basis points), and if such ratio is greater than fifty percent (50%), the facility unused fee shall be payable at the rate of 0.35% (or 35 basis points) (the fee payable being the sum of such calculations for each day during the applicable period). The facility fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the fifth day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof, with a final payment on the Maturity Date.

§2.7 Requests for Loans. The Borrower (i) shall notify the Agent of a potential request for a Loan as soon as possible prior to the Borrower’s proposed Drawdown Date, and (ii) shall give to the Agent written notice in the form of Exhibit D hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing in the form of Exhibit D hereto) of each Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) no later than 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date if such Loan is to be a LIBOR Rate Loan or no later than 2:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date if such Loan is to be a Base Rate Loan. Each such notice shall specify with respect to the requested Loan the proposed principal amount, Drawdown Date, Interest Period (if applicable) and Type. Each such notice shall also contain (i) a statement as to the purpose for which such advance shall be or has been used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of §7.11), and (ii) a certification by the chief executive officer, chief financial or chief accounting officer of the general partner of the Borrower and the chief executive officer, chief financial or chief accounting officer of the Trust that the Borrower and Guarantors are and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the making of such Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Agent shall notify each of the Banks thereof. Except as provided in this §2.7, each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Loan requested from the Banks on the proposed Drawdown Date, provided that, in addition to the Borrower’s other remedies against any Bank which fails to advance its proportionate share of a requested Loan, such Loan Request may be revoked by the Borrower by notice received by the Agent no later than the Drawdown Date if any Bank fails to advance its proportionate share of the requested Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, provided further, that the Borrower shall be liable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to any Bank which is prepared to advance its proportionate share of the requested Loan for any costs, expenses or damages actually incurred by such Bank as a result of the Borrower’s election to revoke such Loan Request. Nothing herein shall prevent the Borrower from seeking recourse against any Bank that fails to advance its proportionate share of a requested Loan as required by this Agreement. The Borrower may without cost or penalty revoke a Loan Request by delivering notice thereof to each of the Banks no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Drawdown Date. Each Loan Request shall be (a) for a Base Rate Loan in the minimum aggregate amount of $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, or (b) for a LIBOR Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $500,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; provided, however, that there shall be no more than five (5) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.

Each Subsidiary Property Owner acknowledges and agrees that all payments (less any customary expenses payable to any Person that is unrelated to the Borrower, Guarantors or any of their respective partners, members, managers, officers or directors or any Person affiliated with the Borrower, Guarantors or any their respective partners, members, managers, officers or directors) actually received by such Subsidiary Property Owner as a result of a Transfer shall be paid to Agent and will be deemed payments to Agent by Borrower. Agent shall apply any and all such payments actually received by Agent in satisfaction of the Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event Borrower or Aquia elects to transfer all of Xxxxx Xxxxx Center to a joint venture, then all of the Obligations outstanding on such date, together with any and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon and prepayment fees shall become absolutely due and payable.

(b) If at any time (i) the Secured Credit Agreement is terminated, or (ii) all of the “Revolving Credit Commitments” (as defined in the Secured Credit Agreement) are terminated, then in any of such events the Commitment under this Agreement shall terminate and the Borrower shall immediately pay to Agent on behalf of the Banks all principal, interest and other amounts due and payable under this Agreement.

(c) If at any time the sum of the aggregate of the Outstanding Loans exceeds the lesser of (i) the Total Commitment, and (ii) the Total Development Costs, the Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Banks for application to the Loans.

(d) Beginning the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2010, and continuing on each June 30, September 30, December 31 and March 31 thereafter (each such day shall be referred to as a “Quarterly Reduction Date”), the Total Commitment shall automatically be reduced by $1,250,000. Borrower shall pay to Agent for the respective accounts of the Banks for application to the Loans such amount as is necessary so that the sum of the Outstanding Loans does not exceed the new Total Commitment from and after the most recent Quarterly Reduction Date.

§3.3 Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to prepay the outstanding amount of the Loan, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium; provided, that if any full or partial prepayment of the outstanding amount of any LIBOR Rate Loan is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, such prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of any amounts due pursuant to §4.8. The Borrower shall give the Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m., Cleveland time, at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to this §3.3, in each case specifying the proposed date of payment of Loans and the principal amount to be paid.

§4. CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

§4.1 Conversion Options.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any of its outstanding Loans to a Loan of another Type and such Loan shall thereafter bear interest as a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan, as applicable; provided that (i) with respect to any such conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of such election, and such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) LIBOR Business Days’ prior written notice of such election and the Interest Period requested for such Loan, the principal amount of the Loan so converted shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and, after giving effect to the making of such Loan there shall be no more than five (5) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time; and (iii) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

On the date on which such conversion is being made, each Bank shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be. Each Conversion Request relating to the conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.

(b) Any Loan may be continued as such Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Borrower with the terms of §4.1(a); provided that no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default.

(c) In the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent of its election hereunder with respect to any Loan to it, such Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period.

§4.2 Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to KeyBank certain fees for services rendered or to be rendered in connection with the Loan as provided pursuant to the Agreement Regarding Fees dated of even date herewith between the Borrower and KeyBank.

§4.3 [Intentionally Omitted.]

§4.4 Funds for Payments.

(a) All payments of principal, interest, unused facility fees, closing fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Agent, for the respective accounts of the Banks and the Agent, as the case may be, at the Agent’s Head Office, not later than 1:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the day when due, in each case in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds. The Agent is hereby authorized to charge the accounts, if any, of the Borrower with KeyBank designated by the Borrower, on the dates when the amount thereof shall become due and payable, with the amounts of the principal of and interest on the Loans and all fees, charges, expenses and other amounts owing to the Agent and/or the Banks under the Loan Documents.

(b) All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such obligation is imposed upon the Borrower with respect to any amount payable by them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower will pay to the Agent, for the account of the Banks or (as the case may be) the Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Banks or the Agent to receive the same net amount which the Banks or the Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the Borrower. The Borrower will deliver promptly to the Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under such other Loan Document.

(c) Each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall provide the Borrower with such duly executed form(s) or statement(s) which may, from time to time, be prescribed by law and, which, pursuant to applicable provisions of (i) an income tax treaty between the United States and the country of residence of such Bank, (ii) the Code, or (iii) any applicable rules or regulations in effect under (i) or (ii) above, indicates the withholding status of such Bank; provided that nothing herein (including without limitation the failure or inability to provide such form or statement) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligations under §4.4(b). Each Bank shall deliver photocopies of such forms or other appropriate certifications on or before the date that any such form shall expire or become obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form delivered to the Borrower for the Agent. Any Bank which sells a participation in any of its Commitments shall be required to obtain such forms from any participant, and shall be required to withhold any amounts from such participant as required by the Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto.

§4.5 Computations. All computations of interest on the Loans and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension. The outstanding amount of the Loans as reflected on the records of the Agent from time to time shall be considered prima facie evidence of such amount.

§4.6 Suspension of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Agent shall reasonably determine that adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period, or the Agent shall reasonably determine that the LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Banks of making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Banks) to the Borrower and the Banks. In such event (a) any Loan Request with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for Base Rate Loans and (b) each LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period thereof, become a Base Rate Loan, and the obligations of the Banks to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent determines that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the Banks.

§4.7 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority having jurisdiction over a Bank or its LIBOR Lending Office shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Bank to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, such Bank shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Agent and the Borrower and thereupon (a) the commitment of the Banks to make LIBOR Rate Loans or convert Loans of another type to LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) the LIBOR Rate Loans then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law.

§4.8 Additional Interest. If any LIBOR Rate Loan or any portion thereof is repaid, or converted to a Base Rate Loan for any reason on a date which is prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan, or if repayment of the Loans has been accelerated as provided in §12.1, the Borrower will pay to the Agent upon demand for the account of the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, in addition to any amounts of interest otherwise payable hereunder, any amounts required to compensate the Banks for any losses, costs or expenses which may reasonably be incurred as a result of such payment, reapportionment or conversion.

§4.9 Additional Costs, Etc. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any present or future applicable law, or any amendment or modification of present applicable law, which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and legally binding interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official with appropriate jurisdiction charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Bank or the Agent by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall:

(a) subject any Bank or the Agent to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Bank’s Commitment or the Loans (other than taxes based upon or measured by the income or profits or gross receipts of such Bank or the Agent), or

(b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for changes in taxes on income or profits) of payments to any Bank of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any Bank under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

(c) impose or increase or render applicable any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or commitments of an office of any Bank, or

(d) impose on any Bank or the Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Loans, such Bank’s Commitment, or any class of loans or commitments of which any of the Loans or such Bank’s Commitment forms a part; and the result of any of the foregoing is

(i) to increase the cost to any Bank of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans or such Bank’s Commitment, or

(ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to such Bank or the Agent hereunder on account of such Bank’s Commitment or any of the Loans, or

(iii) to require such Bank or the Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Bank or the Agent from the Borrower hereunder,

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will within fifteen (15) days after demand made by such Bank or (as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Bank or the Agent such additional amounts as such Bank or the Agent shall determine in good faith to be sufficient to compensate such Bank or the Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum. Each Bank and the Agent in determining such amounts may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods, generally applied by such Bank or the Agent.

§4.10 Capital Adequacy. If after the date hereof any Bank determines that (a) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof, or (b) compliance by such Bank or its parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on such Bank’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Bank’s commitment to make Loans hereunder to a level below that which such Bank or holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank’s or such holding company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then such Bank may notify the Borrower thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay to such Bank the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is determined, upon presentation by such Bank of a statement of the amount and setting forth such Bank’s calculation thereof. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

§4.11 Indemnity of Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from and against any loss, cost or expense that such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in payment of the principal amount of or any interest on any LIBOR Rate Loans as and when due and payable, including any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Bank to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans, or (b) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing or conversion after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Loan Request or a Conversion Request.

§4.12 Interest on Overdue Amounts; Late Charge. Overdue principal on the Loans and all other overdue amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (other than interest on the Loans) shall, following the expiration of any applicable cure period expressly provided for in this Agreement, bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2.0%) above the rate that would otherwise be applicable at such time until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment). Overdue interest on the Loans shall, following the expiration of any applicable cure period expressly provided for in this Agreement, bear interest payable on demand at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) a per annum rate equal to two percent (2.0%) above the rate that would otherwise be applicable at such time or (ii) the maximum annual rate of interest permitted by applicable law until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment), provided that in no event shall such rate exceed ten percent (10%) per annum. In addition, the Borrower shall pay a late charge equal to four percent (4.0%) of any amount of interest and/or principal payable on the Loans or any other amounts payable hereunder or under the Loan Documents, which is not paid by the Borrower within fifteen (15) days after the same shall become due and payable.

§4.13 Certificate. A certificate setting forth any amounts payable pursuant to §4.8, §4.9, §4.10, §4.11 or §4.12 and a brief explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Bank or the Agent to the Borrower, shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

§4.14 Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all agreements between the Borrower and the Banks and the Agent, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Banks exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law.

§6.24 Other Debt. None of the Borrower or the Guarantors is in default of the payment of any Indebtedness or any other agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement, financing agreement, indenture or lease to which any of them is a party.

For purposes of this §8.9, the term “total cost” shall not include (x) costs specifically reimbursable by tenants or shadow anchors (other than through rent or a gross up of rent), (y) capitalized general and administrative expenses, or (z) operating expenses and interest to the extent of operating income received from the applicable development property, and the term “development” shall include the new construction of a shopping center complex or the substantial renovation of improvements to real property which materially change the character or size thereof, but shall not include the addition of amenities or other related facilities to existing Real Estate which is already used principally for shopping centers; provided, however, that the term “development” shall not include demolition of existing structures performed by Borrower or the addition of an anchor store to an existing shopping center project provided that the construction of such improvements is performed by the tenant, and the Borrower (or any Subsidiary or Unconsolidated Affiliate thereof), the Trust or its respective Subsidiary, as applicable, is only obligated to reimburse such tenant for a fixed amount with respect to the cost of such construction upon completion of such construction by such tenant. The Borrower and the Trust each acknowledges that the decision of the Majority Banks to grant or withhold such consent shall be based on such factors as the Majority Banks deem relevant in their sole discretion, including without limitation, evidence of sufficient funds both from borrowings and equity to complete such development and evidence that the Borrower (or any Subsidiary or Unconsolidated Affiliate thereof), the Trust or either of its Subsidiaries has the resources and expertise necessary to complete such project. Nothing herein shall prohibit the Borrower, the Trust or any of their respective Subsidiaries thereof from entering into an agreement to acquire Real Estate which has been developed and initially leased by another Person. Neither the Borrower (or any Subsidiary or Unconsolidated Affiliate thereof), the Trust nor any Subsidiary thereof shall acquire or hold any number of undeveloped parcels of Real Estate which in the aggregate exceed five percent (5%) of the Consolidated Total Adjusted Asset Value of the Borrower without the prior written consent of the Majority Banks, provided that the acquisition or holding of any outlots or property adjacent to any Real Estate owned by the Borrower (or any Subsidiary or Unconsolidated Affiliate thereof), the Trust or any Subsidiary thereof shall not be deemed to be an undeveloped parcel of Real Estate for this purpose and options and purchase agreements to acquire any property shall not be deemed an acquisition or holding of such property. Further, any new development project permitted under the terms of this §8.9 engaged in by the Borrower (or any Subsidiary or Unconsolidated Affiliate thereof), the Trust or any Subsidiary thereof, before any vertical construction commences on any phase of such project, shall be either (i) at least fifty percent (50%) pre-leased (based on the gross leasable area of the improvements to the development, or the phase of the development project being developed if the Borrower submits and the Agent agrees that the development consists of more than one (1) phase, excluding outlots), including all anchors in such phase (it being agreed that Borrower shall receive a credit against such occupancy requirement for any space to be occupied by an anchor that has been conveyed to such anchor), or under a purchase agreement to sell and all construction bids shall be in place, and any such development shall continue to be deemed an undeveloped parcel until such time as construction commences, or (ii) sufficiently pre-leased such that based on such leases the gross income from such leases upon completion of such project shall equal or exceed projected operating expenses (including reserves for expenses not paid on a monthly basis). For purposes of this §8.9, property shall be deemed to be in development at all times that it is Under Development.

§8.10 Restrictions on New Development Activity and New Redevelopment Activity.

(a) In the event that a High Leverage Condition exists, neither the Borrower, the Trust nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall engage, directly or indirectly (including through other Investments), in any New Redevelopment Activity without Agent’s prior written consent unless Borrower certifies (and provides any back-up documentation reasonably required by Agent) to Agent that (i) Borrower has sufficient capital through committed equity, third party debt or funds directly available to Borrower, Trust or their respective Subsidiaries (other than from the Liquidity described in clause (ii) below) to complete such New Redevelopment Activity on a timely basis, and (ii) Borrower maintains Liquidity of not less than $8,000,000.00 beyond the Total Construction Costs reasonably estimated by Borrower to complete all such New Redevelopment Activity in the aggregate; provided, however, that no written consent from Agent or certificate from Borrower to Agent shall be required (x) in the event that the Total Construction Costs estimated by Borrower to complete such individual New Redevelopment Activity do not exceed $3,000,000.00 at such time as site work or vertical construction for the New Redevelopment Activity is commenced, or (y) in the event that the terms of any joint venture agreement in effect as of the date of this Agreement require the New Redevelopment Activity to occur without the prior approval by Borrower or its Subsidiaries, or would force a liquidation of the joint venture or a sale of the property if such approval is not given.

(b) In the event that a High Leverage Condition exists, neither the Borrower, the Trust nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall engage, directly or indirectly (including through other Investments) in any New Development Activity except to the extent that the terms of any joint venture agreement in effect as of the date of this Agreement requires a New Development Activity to occur without the prior approval by Borrower or its Subsidiaries, or would force a liquidation of the joint venture or a sale of property if such approval is not given. Agent and the Banks acknowledge and agree that that projects described on Schedule 8.10 hereto shall not constitute New Development Activity.

(c) In the event that a Target Leverage Condition exists, Borrower, the Trust and their Subsidiaries may pursue New Redevelopment Activity and New Development Activity subject to the limitations in §8.9.

(s) any Event of Default (as defined in any of the other Loan Documents) shall occur; or

Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (b) and (d) of §12.1, the cure periods provided therein shall not be allowed and the occurrence of a Default thereunder immediately shall constitute an Event of Default for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents if, within the period of twelve (12) months immediately preceding the occurrence of such Default, there shall have occurred two (2) periods of cure or portions thereof under any one or more than one of said subsections.

If any one or more Events of Default specified in §12.1(g), §12.1(h) or §12.1(i) shall occur, then immediately and without any action on the part of the Agent or any Bank any unused portion of the credit hereunder shall terminate and the Banks shall be relieved of all obligations to make Loans to the Borrower. If any other Event of Default shall have occurred, the Agent, upon the election of the Majority Banks, may by notice to the Borrower terminate the obligation to make Loans to the Borrower. No termination under this §12.3 shall relieve the Borrower of its obligations to the Banks arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

§12.4 Remedies. In case any one or more of the Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the Banks shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans pursuant to §12.1, the Agent on behalf of the Banks may, with the consent of the Majority Banks but not otherwise, proceed to protect and enforce their rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any instrument pursuant to which the Obligations are evidenced, including to the full extent permitted by applicable law the obtaining of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if such amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, proceed to enforce the payment thereof or any other legal or equitable right. No remedy herein conferred upon the Agent or the holder of any of the Obligations is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. In the event that all or any portion of the Obligations is collected by or through an attorney-at-law, the Borrower shall pay all costs of collection including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees.

§12.5 Distribution of Proceeds. In the event that, following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any monies are received in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise with respect to the realization upon any of the Collateral or assets of the Borrower or the Guarantors, such monies shall be distributed for application as follows:

(a) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of, the Agent for or in respect of all reasonable costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or sustained by the Agent to protect or preserve the Collateral or in connection with the collection of such monies by the Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in respect of the Collateral or in support of any provision of adequate indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of the Agent to such monies;

(b) Second, to all other Obligations in such order or preference as the Majority Banks shall determine; provided, however, that (i) distributions in respect of such Obligations shall be made pari passu among Obligations with respect to the Agent’s fee payable pursuant to §4.3 and all other Obligations, (ii) in the event that any Bank shall have wrongfully failed or refused to make an advance under §2.5 and such failure or refusal shall be continuing, advances made by other Banks during the pendency of such failure or refusal shall be entitled to be repaid as to principal and accrued interest in priority to the other Obligations described in this subsection (b), (iii) Obligations owing to the Banks with respect to each type of Obligation such as interest, principal, fees and expenses, shall be made among the Banks pro rata, and (iv) amounts received or realized from the Borrower shall be applied against the Obligations of the Borrower; and provided, further that the Majority Banks may in their discretion make proper allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and payable; and

§13. SETOFF.

Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral, during the continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits (general or specific, time or demand, provisional or final, regardless of currency, maturity, or the branch of where such deposits are held) or other sums credited by or due from any of the Banks to the Borrower or any Guarantor and any securities or other property of the Borrower or any Guarantor in the possession of such Bank may be applied to or set off against the payment of Obligations of such Person and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of such Person to such Bank; provided that no Bank shall exercise such right of setoff without the prior approval of the Agent. Each of the Banks agrees with each other Bank that if such Bank shall receive from the Borrower or any Guarantor, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Obligations owed to such Bank any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all of the Banks with respect to the Obligations held by all of the Banks, such Bank will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Banks with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Bank receiving in respect of the Obligations held by it its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Bank, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

§14. THE AGENT.

§14.1 Authorization. The Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each of the Banks and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents delegated to the Agent, together with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent. The obligations of the Agent hereunder are primarily administrative in nature, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent as a trustee for any Bank or to create any agency or fiduciary relationship. Agent shall act as the contractual representative of the Banks hereunder, and notwithstanding the use of the term “Agent” it is understood and agreed that Agent shall not have any fiduciary duties or responsibilities to any Bank or by reason of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower and any other Person shall be entitled to conclusively rely on a statement from the Agent that it has the authority to act for and bind the Banks pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

§14.2 Employees and Agents. The Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.

§14.3 No Liability. Neither the Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent, or employee thereof, shall be liable to any of the Banks for any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, may be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent for the account of the Banks, unless the Agent has received notice from a Bank or the Borrower referring to the Loan Documents and describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.

§14.4 No Representations. The Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Obligations, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Obligations, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein or any agreement, instrument or certificate delivered in connection therewith or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any other of the Loan Documents. The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by the Borrower or any Guarantor, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any holder of any of the Obligations shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. The Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Banks, with respect to the creditworthiness or financial condition of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries or the value of the Collateral, the Collateral Property or any of the assets of the Borrower, the Guarantors or their respective Subsidiaries. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank, based upon such information and documents as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent’s Special Counsel has only represented Agent and KeyBank in connection with the Loan Documents and the only attorney-client relationship or duty of care is between Agent’s Special Counsel and Agent or KeyBank. Each Bank has been independently represented by separate counsel on all matters regarding the Loan Documents and the granting and perfecting of liens in the Collateral.

§14.5 Payments.

(a) A payment by the Borrower or the Guarantors to the Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Bank shall constitute a payment to such Bank. The Agent agrees to distribute to each Bank not later than one Business Day after the Agent’s receipt of good funds, determined in accordance with the Agent’s customary practices, such Bank’s pro rata share of payments received by the Agent for the account of the Banks except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. In the event the Borrower makes payments to Agent in immediately available funds on or before the time required in this Agreement for such payment, and Agent fails to distribute such amounts on the same Business Day as received, the Agent shall pay interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect.

(b) If in the opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court. In the event that the Agent shall refrain from making any distribution of any amount received by it as provided in this §14.5(b), the Agent shall endeavor to hold such amounts in an interest bearing account and at such time as such amounts may be distributed to the Banks, the Agent shall distribute to each Bank, based on their respective Commitment Percentages, its pro rata share of the interest or other earnings from such deposited amount.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any Bank that fails (i) to make available to the Agent its pro rata share of any Loan, (ii) to comply with the provisions of §13 with respect to making dispositions and arrangements with the other Banks, where such Bank’s share of any payment received, whether by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of such payments due and payable to all of the Banks, in each case as, when and to the full extent required by the provisions of this Agreement, or (iii) to perform any other obligation within the time period specified for performance, or if no time period is specified, if such failure continues for a period of five (5) Business Days after notice from the Agent, shall be deemed a defaulting Bank (a “Defaulting Bank”) and shall be deemed a Defaulting Bank until such time as such delinquency is satisfied. In addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Agent at law and in equity, a Defaulting Bank’s right to participate in the administration of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any rights to consent to or direct any action or inaction of the Agent pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, or to be taken into account in the calculation of Required Banks, Majority Banks or any matter requiring approval of all of the Banks, shall be suspended while such Bank is a Defaulting Bank; provided that a consent of a Defaulting Bank shall be required for any increase of its Commitment. A Defaulting Bank shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it from the Borrower and the Guarantors, whether on account of outstanding Loans, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining non defaulting Banks for application to, and reduction of, their respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans. The Defaulting Bank hereby authorizes the Agent to distribute such payments to the non defaulting Banks in proportion to their respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans. The provisions of this Section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether an Event of Default occurs and is then continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary or (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments. The Agent shall be entitled to (i) withhold or set off, and to apply to the payment of the obligations of any Defaulting Bank any amounts to be paid to such Defaulting Bank under this Agreement, (ii) to collect interest from such Bank for the period from the date on which the payment was due at the rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus two percent (2%), for each day during such period, and (iii) bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Bank in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted obligations of such Defaulting Bank. A Defaulting Bank shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a delinquency when and if, as a result of application of the assigned payments to all outstanding Loans of the non-defaulting Banks or as a result of other payments by the Defaulting Banks to the non defaulting Banks, the Banks’ respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such delinquency.

§14.6 Holders of Notes. Subject to the terms of Article 18, the Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Obligation and any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.

§14.7 Indemnity. The Banks ratably hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower as required by § 15), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent’s actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence.

§14.8 Agent as Bank. In its individual capacity, the Bank acting as the Agent shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Obligations and the Notes as it would have were it not also the Agent.

§14.9 Resignation. The Agent may resign at any time by giving ten (10) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower. The Majority Banks may remove the Agent from its capacity as Agent in the event of the Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Commitment Percentage of the Bank which is acting as Agent shall not be taken into account in the calculation of Majority Banks for the purposes of removing Agent in the event of the Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Banks shall have the right to appoint as a successor Agent, any Bank or any bank whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A” or its equivalent by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or not less than “A” or its equivalent by Standard & Poor’s Rating Group Inc. and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Bank’s removal of the Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be any Bank or a bank whose debt obligations are rated not less than “A” or its equivalent by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or not less than “A” or its equivalent by Standard & Poor’s Rating Group Inc. and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder as Agent. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

§14.10 Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent may, and if so requested by the Majority Banks and the Banks have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, shall proceed to enforce the provisions of the Security Documents authorizing the sale or other disposition of all or any part of the collateral and exercise all or any legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have in respect of such Collateral. The Majority Banks may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such sale or other disposition, the Banks hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction.

§14.11 Bankruptcy. In the event a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced by or against Borrower or any Guarantor with respect to the Obligations, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to file and pursue a joint proof claim on behalf of all Banks. Any votes with respect to such claims or otherwise with respect to such proceedings shall be subject to the vote of the Majority Banks, the Required Banks or all of the Banks as required by this Agreement. Each Bank irrevocably waives its right to file or pursue a separate proof of claim in any such proceedings unless Agent fails to file such claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Banks requesting that Agent file such proof of claim.

§14.12 Approvals. If consent is required for some action under this Agreement, or except as otherwise provided herein an approval of the Banks, the Required Banks or the Majority Banks is required or permitted under this Agreement, each Bank agrees to give the Agent, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the request for action together with all reasonably requested information related thereto (or such lesser period of time required by the terms of the Loan Documents), notice in writing of approval or disapproval (collectively “Directions”) in respect of any action requested or proposed in writing pursuant to the terms hereof. If consent is required for the requested action, any Bank’s failure to respond to a request for Directions within the required time period shall be deemed to constitute a Direction to take such requested action. In the event that any recommendation is not approved by the requisite number of Banks and a subsequent approval on the same subject matter is requested by Agent, then for the purposes of this paragraph each Bank shall be required to respond to a request for Directions within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such request. Agent and each Bank shall be entitled to assume that any officer of the other Banks delivering any notice, consent, certificate or other writing is authorized to give such notice, consent, certificate or other writing unless Agent and such other Banks have otherwise been notified in writing.

§14.13 Borrower not Beneficiary. Except for the provisions of §14.9 relating to the appointment of a successor Agent, the provisions of this §14 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks, may not be enforced by Borrower or any Guarantor, and except for the provisions of §14.9, may be modified or waived without the approval or consent of Borrower and Guarantors.

§14.14 Request for Agent Action. Agent and the Banks acknowledge that in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower, (a) the Collateral Property may be subject to a condemnation or other taking and (b) the Borrower may desire to enter into easements or other agreements affecting the Collateral Property, record a subdivision plat, dedicate roads or utilities, or take other actions or enter into other agreements in the ordinary course of business which similarly require the consent, approval or agreement of the Agent. In connection with the foregoing, the Banks hereby expressly authorize the Agent to take any of the following actions which Agent in its good faith judgment determines are appropriate, (x) consent to releases of portions of the Collateral Property in connection with any condemnation or other taking, (y) execute consents in form and substance satisfactory to Agent in connection with any easements, agreements, plats, dedications or similar matters affecting any Collateral Property, or (z) execute consents, approvals, or other agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent in connection with such other actions or agreements as may be necessary in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business.

§18. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION.

§18.1 Conditions to Assignment by Banks. Except as provided herein, each Bank may assign to one or more banks or other entities all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it, and the Notes held by it); provided that (a) the Agent shall have given their prior written consent to such assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that such consent shall not be required for any assignment to another Bank, to a Related Fund of such Bank, to a bank which is under common control with the assigning Bank or to a wholly-owned Subsidiary of such Bank provided that such assignee shall remain a wholly-owned Subsidiary or Related Fund of such Bank), (b) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (c) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined), an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement (an “Assignment and Acceptance Agreement”) in the form of Exhibit B hereto, together with any Notes subject to such assignment, (d) in no event shall any assignment be to any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by, any of the Borrower or the Guarantors, (e) such assignee shall acquire an interest in the Loans of not less than $2,000,000 unless such assignment is to another Bank or a Related Fund or unless such requirement is waived by the Borrower and the Agent, and (f) the assignor shall assign its entire interest in the Loans or retain an interest in the Loans of not less than $2,000,000. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, of such notice of assignment, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and all other Loan Documents executed by the Banks and, to the extent provided in such assignment, have the rights and obligations of a Bank hereunder, and (ii) the assigning Bank shall, to the extent provided in such assignment and upon payment to the Agent of the registration fee referred to in §18.2, be released from its obligations under this Agreement. In connection with each assignment, the assignee shall represent and warrant to the Agent, the assignor and each other Bank as to whether such assignee is controlling, controlled by, under common control with or is not otherwise free from influence or control by, the Borrower or the Guarantors. Upon any such assignment, the Agent may unilaterally amend Schedule 1 to reflect any such assignment.

§18.2 Register. The Agent for itself and on behalf of the Borrower shall maintain a copy of each assignment delivered to it and a register or similar list (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitment Percentages of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to the Banks from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Banks at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon each such recordation, the assigning Bank agrees to pay to the Agent a registration fee in the sum of $3,500. Contemporaneous assignments by a Bank to multiple Related Funds will be treated as a single assignment for the purposes of such registration fee.

§18.3 New Notes. Upon its receipt of an assignment executed by the parties to such assignment, together with each Note, if any, subject to such assignment, the Agent shall (a) record the information contained therein in the Register, and (b) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and the Banks (other than the assigning Bank). Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall if requested execute and deliver to the Agent, in exchange for each surrendered Note, a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the amount assumed by such assignee pursuant to such assignment and, if the assigning Bank has retained some portion of its obligations hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Bank in an amount equal to the amount retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such assignment and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes. The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.

§18.4 Participations. Each Bank may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (a) any such sale or participation shall not affect the rights and duties of the selling Bank hereunder to the Borrower, (b) such participation shall not entitle such participant to any rights or privileges under this Agreement or any Loan Documents, including without limitation, the right to approve waivers, amendments or modifications, (c) such participant shall have no direct rights against the Borrower or the Guarantors except the rights granted to the Banks pursuant to §13, (d) such sale is effected in accordance with all applicable laws, and (e) such participant shall not be a Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by the Borrower or the Guarantors. Any Bank which sells a participation shall promptly notify the Agent of such sale and the identity of the purchaser of such interest.

§18.5 Pledge by Bank. Any Bank may at any time pledge all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Note) to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized under §4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. §341 or, with Agent’s prior written approval, to another Person. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Bank from its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Any Bank may with the consent of the Agent pledge all or any portion of its rights and interests under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Note) to a Person approved by Agent.

§18.6 No Assignment by Borrower or the Guarantors. Neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor shall assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under any of the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Banks.

§18.7 Disclosure. The Borrower and the Guarantors each agree that in addition to disclosures made in accordance with standard banking practices any Bank may disclose information obtained by such Bank pursuant to this Agreement to assignees or participants and potential assignees or participants hereunder. In addition, the Banks may make disclosure of such information to any contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisors.

§18.8 Amendments to Loan Documents. Upon any such assignment or participation, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall, upon the request of the Agent, enter into such documents as may be reasonably required by the Agent to modify the Loan Documents to reflect such assignment or participation.

§18.9 Mandatory Assignment. In the event Borrower requests that certain amendments, modifications or waivers be made to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which request is approved by Agent but is not approved by one or more of the Banks (any such non-consenting Bank shall hereafter be referred to as the “Non-Consenting Bank”), then, within thirty (30) days after Borrower’s receipt of notice of such disapproval by such Non-Consenting Bank, Borrower shall have the right as to such Non-Consenting Bank, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to the Agent and the Non-Consenting Bank within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice, to elect to cause the Non-Consenting Bank to transfer its entire Commitment. The Agent shall promptly notify the remaining Banks that each of such Banks shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire a portion of the Commitment, pro rata based upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Non-Consenting Bank (or if any of such Banks does not elect to purchase its pro rata share, then to such remaining Banks in such proportion as approved by the Agent). In the event that the Banks do not elect to acquire all of the Non-Consenting Bank’s Commitment, then the Agent shall endeavor to find a new Bank or Banks to acquire such remaining Commitment. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment of the Non-Consenting Bank, the Non-Consenting Bank’s interests in the Obligations and its rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase, and the Non-Consenting Bank shall promptly execute and deliver any and all documents reasonably requested by Agent to surrender and transfer such interest, including, without limitation, an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and such Non-Consenting Bank’s original Note. Notwithstanding anything in this §18.9 to the contrary, any Bank or other Bank assignee acquiring some or all of the assigned Commitment of the Non-Consenting Bank must consent to the proposed amendment, modification or waiver. The purchase price to be paid by the acquiring Banks for the Non-Consenting Bank’s Commitment shall equal the principal owed to such Non-Consenting Bank, and the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Bank in addition thereto and as a condition to such sale any and all other amounts outstanding and owed by Borrower to the Non-Consenting Bank hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, including all accrued and unpaid interest or fees which would be owed to such Non-Consenting Bank hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents if the Loans were to be repaid in full on the date of such purchase of the Non-Consenting Bank’s Commitment. No registration fee under §18.2 shall be required in connection with such assignment.

§18.10 Titled Agent. The Titled Agent shall not have any additional rights or obligations under the Loan Documents, except for those rights, if any, as a Bank.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement may be given and any term of this Agreement or of any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower or the Guarantors of any terms of this Agreement or such other instrument or the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Majority Banks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) none of the following may occur without the written consent of each Bank: a decrease in the rate of interest on the Loans; except as otherwise provided herein, an extension of the Maturity Date of the Loans; an increase or a non-pro rata reduction in the amount of the Commitments of the Banks except pursuant to §18.1; a forgiveness, reduction or waiver of the principal of any unpaid Loan or any interest thereon; the postponement of any date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on the Loans; a decrease of the amount of any fee (other than late fees) payable to a Bank hereunder; the release of the Borrower or any Guarantor except as otherwise provided herein; a change in the manner of distribution of any payments to the Banks or the Agent; an amendment of the definition of Majority Banks or the Required Banks or of any requirement for consent by the Majority Banks or the Required Banks or all of the Banks; or an amendment of this §27, and (b) the provisions of §7.23 as it relates to §9 of the Secured Credit Agreement and any of the definitions used therein may not be modified, amended or waived without the written consent of the Required Banks. The amount of the Agent’s fee payable for the Agent’s account and the provisions of §14 may not be amended or waived without the written consent of the Agent. The Borrower and the Guarantors each agrees to enter into such modifications or amendments of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by KeyBank in connection with the acquisition by each Bank acquiring all or a portion of the Commitment, provided that no such amendment or modification materially affects or increases any of the obligations of the Borrower or the Guarantors hereunder. No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Agent or any Bank in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon the Borrower or the Guarantors shall entitle the Borrower and the Guarantors to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

§28. SEVERABILITY.

The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

§29. TIME OF THE ESSENCE.

Time is of the essence with respect to each and every covenant, agreement and obligation of the Borrower and the Guarantors under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

§30. NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS.

THE WRITTEN LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. ANY ADDITIONAL TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES ARE SET FORTH BELOW.

§31. REPLACEMENT OF NOTES.

Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Borrower of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to Borrower or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the applicable Note, Borrower will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note, identical in form and substance to the applicable Note and dated as of the date of the applicable Note and upon such execution and delivery all references in the Loan Documents to such Note shall be deemed to refer to such replacement Note.

§32. TRUST EXCULPATION.

Subject to the terms of this paragraph, all persons having a claim against the Trust (as a Guarantor or general partner of the Borrower), the general partner of the Borrower whose signature is affixed hereto as said general partner, hereunder or in connection with any matter that is the subject hereof, shall look solely to (i) the Trust’s interest and rights in the Borrower (as a general partner or limited partner), (ii) the amount of any Net Offering Proceeds not contributed to the Borrower, (iii) all accounts receivable, including the amount of any Distributions received by the Trust from the Borrower and not distributed to shareholders of the Trust as permitted by this Agreement, (iv) all rights and claims (including amounts paid under) the Tax Indemnity Agreement, (v) all cash and Short-term Investments in an amount in excess of $500,000.00, (vi) any other assets which the Trust may now own or hereafter acquire with the consent of Agent pursuant to §7.17 of the Secured Credit Agreement, (vii) all documents and agreements in favor of the Trust in connection with any of the foregoing, (viii) all claims and causes of action arising from or otherwise related to any of the foregoing, and all rights and judgments related to any legal actions in connection with such claims or causes of action, and (ix) all extensions, additions, renewals and replacements, substitutions, products or proceeds of any of the foregoing (the “Attachable Assets”), and in no event shall the obligation of the Trust be enforceable against any shareholder, trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust personally. In no event shall any person have any claim against: (i) the cash, Short-term Investments of the Trust and the property described in Schedule 6.29 to the Secured Credit Agreement, all under the heading of “Other Permitted Assets”, (ii) all documents and agreements in favor of the Trust in connection with any of the foregoing, (iii) all claims and causes of action arising from or otherwise related to any of the foregoing, and all rights and judgments related to any legal actions in connection with such claims or causes of action, and (iv) all extensions, additions, renewals and replacements, substitutions, products or proceeds of any of the foregoing (the “Other Permitted Assets”). The Agent and the Banks have agreed to the terms of this §32 solely based upon the representation and covenant of Borrower and the Trust that the Trust does not and will not own any assets other than the Attachable Assets and the Other Permitted Assets. Notwithstanding anything in this §32 to the contrary, the foregoing limitation on liability and recourse to the Trust (as a Guarantor or general partner of the Borrower) shall be null and void and of no force and effect, and Agent and the Banks shall have full recourse against the Trust, individually as a Guarantor and in its capacity as general partner of the Borrower, and to all of its assets (including, without limitation, the Other Permitted Assets) in the event that the Trust shall now or at any time hereafter own any asset other than or in addition to the Other Permitted Assets and the Attachable Assets. Nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Agent and the Banks against any Subsidiary Property Owner or the Borrower.

§33. PATRIOT ACT.

Each Bank and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank) hereby notifies the Borrower and Guarantors that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower and the Guarantors, which information includes names and addresses and other information that will allow such Bank or the Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower and the Guarantor in accordance with the Patriot Act.

§34. DISCLAIMER BY AGENT AND BANKS.

This Agreement is made for the sole benefit of Borrower, Agent and Banks, and no other person or persons shall have any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, or by reason of any actions taken by Agent or the Banks pursuant to this Agreement. Neither Agent nor the Banks shall be liable to any contractors, subcontractors, supplier, architect, engineer, tenant or other party for labor or services performed or materials supplied in connection with any construction occurring on the Collateral Property (the “Construction”). Neither Agent nor the Banks shall be liable for any debts or claims accruing in favor of any such parties against Borrower, any Guarantor or others or against the Collateral Property.

No payment of funds directly to a contractor or subcontractor or provider of services shall be deemed to create any third party beneficiary status or recognition of same by the Agent and the Banks. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(a) Neither Agent nor the Banks shall have any liability, obligation or responsibility whatsoever with respect to the Construction. Any inspections of the Construction made by or through Agent or the Banks are for purposes of administration of the Loans only and neither, Borrower, the Guarantors nor any third party is entitled to rely upon the same with respect to the quality, adequacy or suitability of materials or workmanship, conformity to any plans and specifications, state of completion or otherwise;

(b) Neither Agent nor the Banks undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower or the Guarantors to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform any of Borrower or the Guarantors of any matter in connection with the Collateral Property, including matters relating to the quality, adequacy or suitability of: (i) the plans and specifications, (ii) architects, contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers employed or utilized in connection with the Construction, or the workmanship of or the materials used by any of them, or (iii) the progress or course of Construction and its conformity or nonconformity with the plans and specifications; Borrower and the Guarantors shall rely entirely upon their own judgment with respect to such matters, and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information to Borrower or the Guarantors by Agent or the Banks in connection with such matters is for the protection of Agent and the Banks only, and neither Borrower, Guarantors nor any third party is entitled to rely thereon; and

(c) Neither Agent nor the Banks owe any duty of care to protect Borrower, any Guarantor, or any third party against negligent, faulty, inadequate or defective building or construction.

§35. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY.

Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that each and every covenant and obligation of any Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be the joint and several obligations of each Xxxxxxxxx.

§00. RATIFICATION OF GUARANTY. Guarantors do hereby covenant and agree that (a) Guarantors are familiar with this Agreement, the Notes and the agreements and instruments executed in connection with the amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement, including without limitation, the modifications and amendments to the Loan Documents, and consents to the same, (b) the Loan Documents (including without limitation the Guaranty and the Indemnity Agreement) remain in full force and effect and constitute the valid and legally binding obligations of Guarantors enforceable against such Persons in accordance with their respective terms, and (c) that the Guaranty and the Indemnity Agreement shall extend to and apply to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as the same may be modified, amended, consolidated or restated in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
