NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals herein and the mutual

set forth in this Section l or elsewhere in the provisions of this Agreement
referred to below:

its successors and assigns.

AGENT'S HEAD OFFICE. The Agent's head office located at 000 Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx 00000, or at such other location as the Agent
may designate from time to time by notice to the Borrower and the Banks.

as may be approved by the Agent.

AGREEMENT. This Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement,
including the SCHEDULES and EXHIBITS hereto.

AGREEMENT REGARDING FEES. That certain First Amended and Restated
Agreement Regarding Fees between the Borrower and FNBB dated of even date
herewith.

APPLICABLE MARGIN. On any date that the lower of the Implied Ratings
issued from time to time by either of the Rating Agencies for the Borrower is
an Investment Grade Rating, the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be one and one-fifth percent (1.20%). In the event that either of the
Rating Agencies issues an Implied Rating for the Borrower that is an
Investment Grade Rating, or in the event of any change in an Implied Rating
of the Borrower by either of the Rating Agencies, or if the Borrower's
Implied Rating, after having obtained an Investment Grade Rating, shall cease
at any time to be an Investment Grade Rating by either of the Rating Agencies
(but subject to the provisions within the definition of the term "Investment
Grade Rating"), such change shall effect a change in the Applicable Margin on
the first Business Day after the Rating Notice Date. On any date that the
lower of the Implied Ratings for the Borrower is not an Investment Grade
Rating or the Borrower has not obtained an Investment Grade Rating from
either of the Rating Agencies, the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate
Loans shall be one and four-tenths percent (1.40%). It is the intention of
the parties that if the Borrower shall only obtain an Investment Grade Rating
from one of the Rating Agencies without seeking an Investment Grade Rating
from the other of the Rating Agencies, the Borrower shall be entitled to the
benefit of the rate reductions described above; provided that if the Borrower
shall have obtained an Investment Grade Rating from both of the Rating
Agencies, the lower of the two ratings (or the loss of the Investment Grade
Rating from one of the Rating Agencies thereafter) shall control.

Properties and any other parcels of Real Estate owned by the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date, the book value after adjustment for
market values in accordance with Section 9.7; with respect to Unencumbered

interests in joint ventures or partnerships (including the OTR Minority
Interest), the book value of such interests themselves without deduction for

allocation by the Borrower of the aggregate purchase price among all parcels
of Real Estate purchased in such transaction and agreed to by the Majority
Banks.

Section 2. THE REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY.

set forth in this Agreement, each of the Banks severally agrees to lend to
the Borrower, 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 Section 2.6, such sums as are
requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in Section 7.11 up to a
maximum aggregate principal amount Outstanding (after giving effect to all
amounts requested and the amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding, including
Letters of Credit accepted but unpaid) at any one time equal to such Bank's
Commitment, PROVIDED, that, in all events no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the
Outstanding principal amount of the Loans (after giving effect to all amounts
requested and the amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding, including Letters
of Credit accepted but unpaid) shall not at any time exceed the Total
Commitment or cause a violation of the covenant set forth in Section 9.4.
The Loans shall be made PRO RATA in accordance with each Bank's Commitment
Percentage. The funding of a Loan hereunder shall constitute a
representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions set
forth in Section 10 and Section 11, in the case of the initial Loan, and
Section 11, in the case of all other Loans, have been satisfied on the date
of such funding.

Section 2.2. FACILITY FEE. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for
the accounts of the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment
Percentages a facility fee calculated at the rate of one-fourth of one
percent (0.25%) per annum on the average daily amount by which the Total
Commitment exceeds the Outstanding principal amount of Loans and the amount
of Outstanding

Letters of Credit (including Letters of Credit accepted but unpaid) during
each calendar quarter or portion thereof commencing on the Closing Date and
ending on the Maturity Date, provided, however, that in the event for any
quarter the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (a) the average daily amount
of the Outstanding principal amount of the Loans and the amount of
Outstanding Letters of Credit (including Letters of Credit accepted but
unpaid) during such quarter to (b) the Total Commitment is greater than
sixty-five percent (65%), then the facility fee shall be calculated at the
rate of three-twentieths of one percent (0.15%) for such quarter. The
facility fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each
calendar quarter for such calendar quarter or portion thereof, with a final
payment on the Maturity Date.

Section 2.3. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

Section 2.4. NOTES. The Loans shall be evidenced by separate
promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A
hereto (collectively, the "Notes"), dated the date of this Agreement and
completed with appropriate insertions. One Note shall be payable to the
order of each Bank in the principal face amount equal to such Bank's
Commitment and shall be payable as set forth below. The Borrower irrevocably
authorizes each Bank to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the
Drawdown Date of any Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of
principal thereof, an appropriate notation on such Bank's Record reflecting
the making of such Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment.
The Outstanding amount of the Loans set forth on such Bank's Record shall be
PRIMA FACIE evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such
Bank, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such
amount on such Bank'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 evidence
by the "Notes" as defined in the First Amended 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.

Section 2.5. INTEREST ON LOANS.

(a) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period
commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the date on which
such Base Rate Loan is repaid or converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan at the
rate per annum equal to the Base Rate.

(b) Each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period
commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of the
Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the sum
of the Applicable Margin plus the Eurodollar Rate determined for such
Interest Period.

(d) Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans may be converted to
Loans of the other Type as provided in Section 4.1.

Section 2.6. REQUESTS FOR LOANS. Except with respect to the initial
Loan, the Borrower (i) shall notify the Agent of a potential request for a
Loan as soon as possible but not less than five (5) Business Days prior to
the Borrower's proposed Drawdown Date, and (ii) shall give to the Agent
written notice in the form of EXHIBIT B hereto (or telephonic notice
confirmed in writing in the form of EXHIBIT B hereto) of each Loan requested
hereunder (a "Loan Request") no less than three (3) Business Days prior to
the proposed Drawdown Date. The Agent shall promptly notify each of the
Banks following the receipt of a Loan Request, but in any event not less than
three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date. Borrower shall
not make a Loan Request more frequently than five (5) times each month, but
will exercise its best efforts not to exceed three (3) draws each month.
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 used (which purpose shall be in accordance
with the terms of Section 7.11), (ii) a certification by an Authorized
Officer of the Borrower and the Guarantor that since the date of the last
Compliance Certificate delivered under this Agreement, there have been no
material changes in the matters certified in such Compliance Certificate that
could cause a Default or Event of Default to occur after giving effect to the
making of such Loan, and (iii) a certification by an Authorized Officer of
the Borrower that the Borrower is and will be in compliance with Section 9.4
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 Section 2.6, 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 incurred by
such Bank as a result of the Borrower's election to revoke such Loan Request
(including, without limitation, the items described in Section 4.8, as
applicable, but not including any damages for lost interest earnings as a
result of such Loan not being made). 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 a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$100,000 in excess thereof, or (b) for a Eurodollar Rate Loan in a minimum
aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess
thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that there shall be no more than five (5)
Eurodollar Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.

Section 2.7. FUNDS FOR LOANS. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Boston time)
on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Loans, 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 Section 2.1. Upon receipt
from each Bank of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by
Section 10 and Section 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 such 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. 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, provided that 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 Section 2.6. 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 Section 12.5.

Section 2.8. EXTENSION OF MATURITY DATE.

(a) The Borrower has requested the ability to extend the Maturity
Date. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Banks have no agreement
or obligation to extend the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Borrower and the Banks have agreed upon the following procedure with
respect to requests by the Borrower to extend the Maturity Date:

(i) The Borrower may request that the Banks extend the Maturity
Date by one (1) year. If the Borrower desires to request that the Maturity
Date be extended by one (1) year, the Borrower shall deliver written notice
of such request to the Agent not earlier than the first anniversary of the
Closing Date and not later than the date which is ninety (90) days prior to
the then effective Maturity Date (an "Extension Request"). The Agent shall
provide a copy of such notice to each of the Banks within ten (10) days
after the Agent's receipt of such notice. The Banks shall notify the Agent
within forty-five (45) days of receipt of such notice from the Agent of
such Bank's approval or rejection of the Extension Request. No Extension
Request shall be deemed approved unless approved by all of the Banks, which
approval may be granted or withheld in each Bank's sole and absolute
discretion. In the event that a Bank shall fail to respond in writing to
the Agent within such forty-five (45) day period, such Bank shall be deemed
to have rejected the Extension Request. The Agent shall promptly notify
the Borrower of the responses received from the Banks with respect to the
Extension Request.

(ii) If the Extension Request is approved by all of the Banks as
provided in Section 2.8(a)(i), the Borrower shall retain the right to
request further one (1) year extensions in the manner provided in this
Section 2.8(a).

(b) In the event that an Extension Request is approved as provided
in Section 2.8(a), each and every such approval shall be conditioned upon
satisfaction of the following conditions precedent, which terms shall be in
addition to any terms and conditions which may be required by the Banks as a
condition to the approval of the Extension Request and must be satisfied
prior to the effectiveness of any extension of the Maturity Date:

(i) PAYMENT OF EXTENSION FEE. Within fifteen (15) days of
approval of the Extension Request by all of the Banks (but in no event
later than the Maturity Date as determined without regard to such
extension), the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the PRO RATA accounts
of the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages an
extension fee as more particularly described in the Agreement Regarding
Fees, which fee shall, when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under
any circumstances.

(ii) NO DEFAULT. On the date the Extension Request is given and
on the Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension) there
shall exist no Default or Event of Default.

(iii) REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The representations
and warranties made by the Borrower or the Guarantor in the Loan Documents
or otherwise made by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Guarantor or any of
the Borrower's Subsidiaries in connection therewith or after the date
thereof shall have been true and correct in all material respects when made
and shall also be true and correct in all material respects on the Maturity
Date (as determined without regard to such extension) other than for
changes in the ordinary course of business permitted by this Agreement that
have not had any materially adverse affect on the business of the Borrower,
the Guarantor or any of the Borrower's Subsidiaries.

Section 2.9. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, at any time and from time to time from the Closing Date through
the day that is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date, the Agent shall
issue such Letters of Credit as the Borrower may request, for the purposes
provided in Section 7.11, upon the delivery of a written request in the form
of EXHIBIT C hereto (a "Letter of Credit Request") to the Agent, PROVIDED
that (i) upon issuance of such Letter of Credit, the Outstanding Letters of
Credit (including Letters of Credit accepted but unpaid) shall not exceed
Nineteen Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($19,500,000.00), (iii) the
conditions set forth in Sections 10 and 11 shall have been satisfied, and
(iv) in no event shall any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit be available
for reinstatement or a subsequent drawing under such Letter of Credit. The
Borrower assumes all risks with respect to the use of the Letters of Credit.
Unless the Agent and the Majority Banks otherwise consent, the term of any
Letter of Credit shall not exceed the lesser of

twelve (12) months or a period of time commencing on the issuance of the
Letter of Credit and ending on the date which is fifteen (15) days prior to
the Maturity Date (but in any event the term shall not extend beyond the
Maturity Date), and no Letter of Credit shall contain an automatic extension
or renewal clause. The amount available to be drawn under any Letter of
Credit shall reduce on a dollar for dollar basis the amount available to be
drawn under the Total Commitment as a Loan.

(b) Each Letter of Credit Request shall be submitted to the Agent
at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date upon which the requested
Letter of Credit is to be issued. Following the receipt of a Letter of
Credit Request, the Agent shall promptly notify each of the Banks of the
Letter of Credit Request. Each such Letter of Credit Request shall contain
(i) a statement as to the purpose for which such Letter of Credit shall be
used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of Section 7.11),
(ii) a certification by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower that the
Borrower is and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan
Documents after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and
(iii) a certification by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower that the
Borrower is and will be in compliance with Section 7.15 after giving effect
to the issuance of the Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall further deliver
to the Agent such additional applications and documents as the Agent may
require, in conformity with the then standard practices of its letter of
credit department, in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit;
provided that in the event of any conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall
control.

(c) The Agent shall, if it approves of the content of the Letter
of Credit Request (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and
subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, issue the Letter of
Credit on or before ten (10) Business Days following receipt of the documents
last due pursuant to Section 2.9(b). Each Letter of Credit shall be in form
and substance satisfactory to the Agent in its sole discretion. Upon
issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Agent shall provide copies of each Letter
of Credit to the Banks.

(d) Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Bank shall be
deemed to have purchased a participation therein from Agent in an amount
equal to its respective Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Letter of
Credit.

(e) Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall
pay to the Agent (i) for its own account, a Letter of Credit fee calculated
at the rate of two-fifths of one percent (0.40%) per annum of the amount
available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (which fee shall not be
less than $1,000.00 in any event), and (ii) for the accounts of the Banks in
accordance with their respective percentage shares of participation in such
Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit fee calculated at the rate of one
percent (1%) per annum of the amount available to be drawn under such Letter
of Credit. Such fees shall be payable in quarterly installments in advance
with respect to each Letter of Credit commencing on its date of issuance and
continuing on each quarter thereafter, as applicable.

(f) If and to the extent that any amounts are drawn upon any
Letter of Credit, the amounts so drawn shall, from the date of payment
thereof by the Agent, be considered Loans for all purposes hereunder bearing
interest as provided in Section 2.5(a). The Banks shall be required to make
such Loans regardless of whether all of the conditions to disbursement set
forth in Section 11 have been satisfied.

(g) If after the issuance of a Letter of Credit pursuant to
Section 2.9(d) by the Agent, but prior to the funding of any portion thereof
by a Bank, one of the events described in Section 12.1(h), (i) or (j) shall
have occurred, each Bank will, on the date such Loan pursuant to Section
2.9(d) was to have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in
the Letter of Credit in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the
amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Bank will immediately transfer to the
Agent in immediately available funds the amount of its participation and upon
receipt thereof the Agent will deliver to such Bank a Letter of Credit
participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such
amount.

(h) Whenever at any time after the Agent has received from any
Bank such Bank's payment of funds under a Letter of Credit, the Agent
receives any payment on account thereof, the Agent will distribute to such
Bank its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the
case of interest payments to reflect the period of time during which such
Bank's participating interest was outstanding and funded); PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that in the event that such payment received by the Agent is required to be
returned, such Bank will return to the Agent any portion thereof previously
distributed by the Agent to it.

(i) Upon the receipt by the Agent of any draw or other
presentation for payment of a Letter of Credit and the payment of any amount
under a Letter of Credit, the Agent shall, without notice to or the consent
of the Borrower, direct the Banks to fund to the Agent in accordance with
Section 2.7 on or before 2:00 p.m. (Boston time) on the next Business Day
their respective Commitment Percentages of the amount so paid by the Agent.
The proceeds of such funding shall be paid to the Agent to reimburse the
Agent for the payment made by it under the Letter of Credit. The provisions
of Section 2.7 shall apply to any Bank or Banks failing or refusing to fund
its Commitment Percentage of any such draw.

(j) The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment,
renewal or extension to or of any Letter of Credit shall be treated in all
respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.

Section 3. REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.

Outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Outstanding Letters of Credit

Loans. If at any time the Borrower is not in compliance with the covenants

9.4.

Section 3.3. OPTIONAL PREPAYMENTS. The Borrower shall have the right,
at its election, to prepay the Outstanding amount of the Loans, as a whole or

pursuant to this Section 3.3 may be made only on the last day of the Interest
Period relating thereto unless accompanied by breakage costs computed in
accordance with Section 4.8 and except as otherwise required pursuant to
Section 4.7. The Borrower shall give the Agent, no later than 1:00 p.m.,
Boston time, at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of any
prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.3 specifying the proposed date of
payment of Loans and the principal amount to be paid.

Section 3.4. PARTIAL PREPAYMENTS. Each partial prepayment of the Loans
under Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 shall be in an integral multiple of
$500,000, shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest on the

shall be applied, in the absence of instruction by the Borrower, first to the
principal of Base Rate Loans and then to the principal of Eurodollar Rate
Loans.

Section 3.5. EFFECT OF PREPAYMENTS. Amounts of the Loans prepaid under
Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 prior to the Maturity Date may be reborrowed as

Offering, less all reasonable costs, fees, expenses, underwriting
commissions, fees and discounts incurred in connection therewith, to be
promptly paid by the Borrower to the Agent for the account of the Banks as a
prepayment of the Loans to the extent of the Outstanding balance of the Loans.

Section 4. CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

Section 4.1. CONVERSION OPTIONS.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any
outstanding Loan to a Loan of another Type and such Loan shall thereafter
bear interest as a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Rate Loan, as applicable;
PROVIDED that (i) with respect to any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate
Loan to a Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three
Business Days' 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 Eurodollar Rate Loan; (ii) with respect to any such

conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrower shall
give the Agent at least four Eurodollar 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

and, after giving effect to the making of such Loan, there shall be no more
than five (5) Eurodollar Rate Loans Outstanding at any one time; and (iii) no
Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Rate Loan when any Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing. All or any part of the
Outstanding Loans of any Type may be converted as provided herein, PROVIDED
that no partial conversion shall result in a Base Rate Loan in an aggregate
principal amount of less than $1,000,000 or a Eurodollar Rate Loan in an
aggregate principal amount of less than $1,000,000 and that the aggregate
principal amount of each Loan shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000.
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 Eurodollar Lending Office, as the case may
be. Each Conversion Request relating to the conversion of a Base Rate Loan
to a Eurodollar 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 Section 4.1; PROVIDED that no Eurodollar Rate Loan may be
continued as such when any 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
Event of Default.

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

Section 4.2. COMMITMENT FEE. Upon the execution of this Agreement, the
Borrower agrees to pay to the Banks a nonrefundable commitment fee pursuant
to the Agreement Regarding Fees.

Section 4.3. AGENT'S FEE. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the
Agent's own account, a non-refundable Agent's fee pursuant to the Agreement
Regarding Fees.

Section 4.4. FUNDS FOR PAYMENTS.

(a) All payments of principal, interest, facility fees, Agent's
fees, closing fees, Letter of Credit 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. (Boston time) on the day when
due, in each case in immediately available funds. The Agent is hereby
authorized to charge the account of the Borrower with FNBB, 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 it 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) The obligations of the Borrower to the Banks under this
Agreement shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid
and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under
all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following
circumstances: (i) any improper use which may be made of any Letter of
Credit or any improper acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of
any Letter of Credit in connection therewith; (ii) the existence of any
claim, set-off, defense or any right which the Borrower may have at any time
against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or persons
or entities for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be
acting) or the Banks (other than the defense of payment to the Banks in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any other person, whether in
connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan
Document, or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any statement or any other
documents presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be insufficient,
forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (iv) any breach of any
agreement between Borrower and any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of
Credit; (v) any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which any
Letter of Credit is issued, including any fraud by the beneficiary or any
transferee of such Letter of Credit; (vi) payment by the Agent under any
Letter of Credit against presentation of a sight draft or a certificate which
does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, provided that such
payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on
the part of the Agent, and (vii) any other circumstance or happening
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, provided that
such other circumstances or happenings shall not have been the result of
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Agent.

(d) Each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside
the United States, if requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long
as such Bank remains lawfully able to do so), 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, indicating 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 Section 4.4(b). In the event that the
Borrower shall have delivered the certificates or vouchers described above
for any payments made by the Borrower and such Bank receives a refund of any
taxes paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.4(b), such Bank will pay to
the Borrower the amount of such refund promptly upon receipt thereof,
PROVIDED that if at any time thereafter such Bank is required to return such
refund, the Borrower shall promptly repay to such Bank the amount of such
refund.

Section 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 Eurodollar
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.

Section 4.6. INABILITY TO DETERMINE EURODOLLAR RATE. In the event
that, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any
Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Agent shall determine that adequate and reasonable
methods do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate 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
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a
request for Base Rate Loans and (b) each Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar
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.

Section 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
Eurodollar Lending Office shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Bank to
make or maintain Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert Loans of
another type to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b)
the Eurodollar Rate Loans then Outstanding shall be converted automatically
to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such
Eurodollar Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law.

Section 4.8. ADDITIONAL INTEREST. If any Eurodollar Rate Loan or any
portion thereof is repaid or is 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 Eurodollar Rate Loan, 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 or
conversion, including, without limitation, an amount equal to daily interest
for the unexpired portion of such Interest Period on the Eurodollar Rate Loan
or portion thereof so repaid or converted at a per annum rate equal to the
excess, if any, of (a) the Eurodollar Rate applicable to such Eurodollar Rate
Loan over (b) the yield obtainable by the Agent upon the purchase of debt
securities customarily issued by the Treasury of the United States of America
which have a maturity date most closely approximating the last day of such
Interest Period (it being understood that the purchase of such securities
shall not be required in order for such amounts to be payable) (it being
agreed that a Bank shall not be obligated or required to have actually
obtained funds at the Eurodollar Rate or to have actually reinvested such
amount as described above).

Section 4.9. ADDITIONAL COSTS, ETC. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, if any present or future 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, a Letter of
Credit or the Loans (other than taxes based upon or measured by the income or
profits 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 letters of credit from,
or commitments of any Bank beyond those in effect as of the date hereof, 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, a Letter of Credit 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 Letters of
Credit 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 Letters of Credit, 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 of
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.

Section 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 of general application for banks or
bank holding companies (as opposed to a particular bank) 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 future guideline, request or directive of any such
entity regarding capital adequacy or any amendment or change in interpretation
of any existing guideline, request or directive (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 setting for the
Bank's calculation thereof. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any
reasonable averaging and attribution methods, generally applied by such Bank.

Section 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
Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar 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; provided,
however, that the Borrower shall not be required to so indemnify any

Bank pursuant to clause (b) above which fails or refuses to fund its
proportionate share of a Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 4.12. INTEREST ON OVERDUE AMOUNTS; LATE CHARGE. Overdue principal
and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) interest on the Loans and all
other overdue amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents
shall bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to four percent
(4%) above the Base Rate until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well
as before judgment). In addition, the Borrower shall pay a late charge equal to
three percent (3%) 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 within ten days of the date when due.

Section 4.13. CERTIFICATE. A certificate setting forth any amounts
payable pursuant to Section 4.8, Section 4.9, Section 4.10, Section 4.11 or
Section 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.

Section 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. If, from any circumstance whatsoever,
interest would otherwise be payable to the Banks in excess of the maximum lawful
amount, the interest payable to the Banks shall be reduced to the maximum amount
permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance the Banks shall
ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of
the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be
applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and to the
payment of interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of
principal of the Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrower.
All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Banks shall, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread
throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the
Obligations (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that
the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount
permitted by applicable law. This section shall control all agreements between
the Borrower and the Banks and the Agent.

Section 5. SECURITY. The Banks have agreed to make the Loans to the
Borrower on an unsecured basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligations
shall be guaranteed by Guarantor pursuant to the Guaranty.

Section 6.7. LITIGATION. Except as stated on SCHEDULE 6.7 there are no
actions, suits, proceedings or investigations of any kind pending or threatened
against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the Guarantor before any
court, tribunal or administrative agency or board that, if adversely determined,
might, either in any case or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect the
properties, assets, financial condition or business of such Person or materially
impair the right of such Person to carry on business substantially as now
conducted by it, or result in any liability not adequately covered by insurance,
or for which adequate reserves are not maintained on the balance sheet of such
Person, or which question the validity of this Agreement or any of the other

Agreement or under any note, evidence of indebtedness, indenture or other
obligation to which or with respect to which the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or the Guarantor is a party or obligor, whether as principal or
surety, and such default would permit the holder of such note or obligation
or other evidence of indebtedness to accelerate the maturity thereof, which
acceleration would have a material adverse effect on the Borrower or the
Guarantor or the existence of which claimed default might become an Event of
Default under Section 12.1(g), the Borrower shall forthwith give written
notice thereof to the Agent and each of the Banks, describing the notice or
action and the nature of the claimed default.

(b) ENVIRONMENTAL EVENTS. The Borrower will promptly give notice

any Environmental Law that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries reports in
writing or is reportable by such Person in writing (or for which any written
report supplemental to any oral report is made) to any federal, state or
local environmental agency and (iii) upon becoming aware thereof, of any
inquiry, proceeding, investigation, or other action, including a notice from
any agency of potential environmental liability, of any federal, state or

claim against such Person that could reasonably be expected to have a
materially adverse effect on such Person and stating the nature and status of
such litigation or proceedings. The Borrower will give notice to the Agent,

Borrower, such notice to be submitted together with the Compliance
Certificate provided or required to be provided to the Banks under Section

with respect to any proposed or completed sale, encumbrance, refinance or
transfer be adjusted in the best good-faith estimate of the Borrower to give
effect to such sale, encumbrance, refinance or transfer and demonstrate that
no Default or Event of Default with respect to the covenants referred to
therein shall exist after giving effect to such sale, encumbrance, refinance
or transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any sale,
encumbrance, refinance or transfer of any Real Estate or other Investment
described in Section 8.3(j) of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries involving an
amount in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the value of the Consolidated
Total Assets of the Borrower, the Borrower shall promptly give notice to the

certification of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower or the Guarantor, as
applicable, of the Asset Values and that such Unencumbered Operating
Properties are in compliance with Section 7.15(a), and (iii) operating
statements setting forth the Net Operating Income and Operating Cash Flow for
each of the Unencumbered Operating Properties for the previous four (4)
fiscal quarters certified as true and correct by an Authorized Officer of the
Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable. In the event that all or any
material portion of a property within the Unencumbered Operating Properties
shall be damaged or taken by condemnation, then such property shall no longer
be a part of the Unencumbered Operating Properties unless and until any
damage to such Real Estate is repaired or restored, such Real Estate becomes
fully operational and the Agent shall receive evidence satisfactory to the
Agent of the value, Net Operating Income and Operating Cash Flow of such Real
Estate following such repair or restoration.

(c) Nothing herein shall be construed as an obligation of the
Borrower to grant any mortgage, pledge or security interest to the Agent or
the Banks in any of the Unencumbered Operating Properties, nor as an
obligation of the Borrower to reserve any particular Unencumbered Operating
Property as potential collateral for the Agent and the Banks; provided,
however, that this Section 7.15(c) shall not diminish the Borrower's
obligation to comply with the terms of this Section 7.15 or Section 7.16.

(d) The Borrower and the Guarantor will use commercially
reasonable efforts to ascertain the equity ownership of each of its potential
tenants prior to executing a Lease (excluding those tenants from whom the
Borrower or the Guarantor derive a sufficiently small amount of revenue such
that, in the reasonable opinion of the management of the Borrower or the
Guarantor, rent from such tenant would not adversely affect the Borrower's
ability to qualify as a REIT), in order to identify any tenants in which
Ameritech owns, directly or indirectly, a ten percent (10%) or greater equity
interest, and neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor shall enter into Leases
with any tenants so identified.

Section 7.16. LIMITING AGREEMENTS.

(a) Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries nor the Guarantor
shall enter into any agreement, instrument or transaction which has or may
have the effect of prohibiting or limiting the Borrower's or the Guarantor's
ability to pledge to the Agent Real Estate, the OTR Minority Interest, any
other minority interests of the Borrower in unconsolidated joint ventures and
partnerships approved by the Majority Banks, interests of the Borrower in
Subsidiaries or other assets owned by Borrower or Guarantor. Borrower and
Guarantor shall take, and Borrower shall cause its Subsidiaries to take, such
actions as are necessary to preserve the right and ability of Borrower and
Guarantor to pledge those Real Estate assets as security for the Loans
without any such pledge after the date hereof causing or permitting the
acceleration (after the giving of notice or the passage of time, or
otherwise) of any other Indebtedness of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
or the Guarantor. This Section 7.16 shall not be construed as limiting
Borrower's or Guarantor's rights under Section 8.2 as it relates to a
particular type of lien which the Borrower or the Guarantor may incur.

(b) Borrower shall, upon demand by the Agent in the exercise of
the Agent's reasonable discretion, provide to the Agent such evidence as the
Agent may reasonably require to evidence Borrower's compliance with this
Section 7.16, which evidence shall include, without limitation, copies of any
agreements or instruments which would in any way restrict or limit the
Borrower's or the Guarantor's ability to pledge assets as security for
Indebtedness, or which provide for the occurrence of a default (after the
giving of notice or the passage of time, or otherwise) if assets are pledged
in the future as security for Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or the Guarantor.

Section 7.17. ENVIRONMENTAL AND ENGINEERING INSPECTIONS. The Borrower
shall, with respect to each property at any time included as part of the
Unencumbered Operating Properties, provide to the Agent evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent prior to the inclusion of such property within the
Unencumbered Operating Properties that (a) the Borrower has completed an
appropriate

investigation of the physical condition of such property, including without
limitation an analysis of the structural condition and existence of any
material deferred maintenance, and that such property is in good condition,
order and repair and that any material deferred maintenance has been
corrected or satisfactory remediation actions are being taken, as determined
by the Agent in its reasonable judgment, and (b) that the Borrower has
completed an appropriate investigation of the environmental condition of each
proposed property, including preparation of a "Phase I" report and, if
appropriate, a "Phase II" report, in each case prepared by a recognized
environmental engineer in accordance with customary standards which discloses
that such property is not in violation of the representations and covenants
set forth in this Agreement, unless satisfactory remediation actions are
being taken, as determined by the Agent in its reasonable judgment.

Section 7.18. DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME TO THE BORROWER. The Borrower shall
cause all of its Subsidiaries to promptly distribute to the Borrower (but not
less frequently than once each fiscal quarter of the Borrower), whether in
the form of dividends, distributions or otherwise, all profits, proceeds or
other income relating to or arising from its Subsidiaries' use, operation,
financing, refinancing, sale or other disposition of their respective assets
and properties after (a) the payment by each Subsidiary of its Debt Service
and Operating Expenses for such quarter and (b) the establishment of
reasonable reserves for the payment of Operating Expenses not paid on at
least a quarterly basis and Capital Improvement Projects to be made to such
Subsidiary's assets and properties approved by such Subsidiary in the
ordinary course of business consistent with its past practices.

Section 8. CERTAIN NEGATIVE COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER.

Letter of Credit is outstanding or any of the Banks has any obligation to
make any Loans or the Agent has any obligation to issue any Letters of Credit:

have been requested by the Borrower prior to the issuance of such
Indebtedness or approved by the Banks, whether or not the same has become
effective), and (ii) Borrower shall exercise its best efforts to ensure that
any covenants or restrictions imposed upon the Borrower, the Guarantor or

the Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries than the covenants and
restrictions imposed pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents,
but in any event, the covenants and restrictions imposed in connection with
such Indebtedness shall not be more restrictive than the covenants and
restrictions contained in Section 8.1, Section 8.2, Section 8.3, Section 8.7
and Section 9 of this Agreement; and provided further that neither the
Borrower, Guarantor nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall incur any

Borrower, provided that repayment of such Indebtedness shall be subordinate at
all times to repayment of the Obligations pursuant to a subordination and

not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, (a) create or incur or suffer to be

Section 8.4. MERGER, CONSOLIDATION. The Borrower will not, and will
not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, become a party to any merger,
consolidation or other business combination without the prior written consent
of the Majority Banks except (i) the merger or consolidation of one or more
of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower with and into the Borrower, (ii) the

in compliance with the covenants referred to therein after giving effect to
said merger.

Section 8.5. SALE AND LEASEBACK. The Borrower will not, and will not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any arrangement, directly or
indirectly, whereby the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower shall sell
or transfer any Real Estate owned by it in order that then or thereafter the
Borrower or any Subsidiary shall lease back such Real Estate.

Section 8.6. COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS. The Borrower will
not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries, to do any of the following:
(a) use any of the Real Estate or any portion thereof as a facility for the
handling, processing, storage or disposal of Hazardous Substances, except for
small quantities of Hazardous Substances used in the ordinary course of
business and in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, (b) cause
or permit to be located on any of the Real Estate any underground tank or
other underground storage receptacle for Hazardous Substances except in full
compliance with Environmental Laws, (c) generate any Hazardous Substances on
any of the Real Estate except in full compliance with Environmental Laws, (d)
conduct any activity at any Real Estate or use any Real Estate in any manner
so as to cause a Release of Hazardous Substances on, upon or into the Real
Estate or any surrounding properties or any threatened Release of Hazardous
Substances which might give rise to liability under CERCLA or any other
Environmental Law, or (e) directly or indirectly transport or arrange for the
transport of any Hazardous Substances (except in compliance with all
Environmental Laws).

The Borrower shall:

(i) in the event of any change in Environmental Laws governing the
assessment, release or removal of Hazardous Substances, which change would
lead a prudent owner of real property to require additional testing to avail
itself of any statutory insurance or limited liability, take all action
(including, without limitation, the conducting of engineering tests at the
sole expense of the Borrower) to determine whether Hazardous Substances were
ever Released or disposed of on the Real Estate; and

(ii) if any Release or disposal of Hazardous Substances shall occur
or shall have occurred on the Real Estate (including without limitation any
such Release or disposal occurring prior to the acquisition of such Real
Estate by the Borrower), cause the prompt containment and removal of such
Hazardous Substances and remediation of the Real Estate in full compliance
with all applicable laws and regulations and to the satisfaction of the
Majority Banks; PROVIDED, that the Borrower shall be deemed to be in
compliance with Environmental Laws for the purpose of this clause (ii) so
long as it or a responsible third party with sufficient financial resources
is taking reasonable action to remediate or manage any event of noncompliance
to the satisfaction of the Majority Banks and no action shall have been
commenced by any enforcement agency. The Majority Banks may engage their own
environmental engineer to review the environmental assessments and the
Borrower's compliance with the covenants contained herein, the cost of which
shall be borne by the Borrower.

At any time after an Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder, or,
whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred, at any time that the
Agent or the Majority Banks shall have reasonable grounds to believe that a
Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Substances may have occurred,
relating to any Real Estate, or that any of the Real Estate is not in
compliance with the Environmental Laws, and, unless such Real Estate is an
Unencumbered Operating Property, that such Release, threatened Release or
noncompliance may be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on
the Borrower as determined by the Agent in the exercise of its sole
discretion, the Agent may at its election (and will at the request of the
Majority Banks excluding the Agent) obtain such environmental assessments of
such Real Estate prepared by an environmental engineer as may be necessary or
advisable for the purpose of evaluating or confirming (i) whether any
Hazardous Substances are present in the soil or water at or adjacent to such
Real Estate and (ii) whether the use and operation of such Real Estate comply
with all Environmental Laws. Environmental assessments may include detailed
visual inspections of such Real Estate including, without limitation, any and
all storage areas, storage tanks, drains, dry xxxxx and leaching areas, and
the taking of soil samples, as well as such other investigations or analyses
as are necessary or appropriate for a complete determination of the
compliance of such Real Estate and the use and operation thereof with all
applicable Environmental Laws. All such environmental assessments shall be
at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower.

Section 8.7. DISTRIBUTIONS. The Borrower will not make any
Distributions which would cause it to violate any of the following covenants:

(a) Pay any Distribution to the shareholders of the Borrower if
such Distribution is in excess of the greater of (i) the minimum
Distributions required under the Code to maintain the REIT status of the
Borrower, and (ii) the amount which, when added to the amount of all other
Distributions (a) paid in the same fiscal quarter, would exceed eighty-five
percent (85%) of its Funds from Operations for such fiscal quarter (except
that, for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 1996 only, such percentage
shall be increased to ninety percent (90%)), and (b) paid for the preceding
four fiscal quarters, would exceed one hundred ten percent (110%) of its Cash
Available for Distribution for the preceding four fiscal quarters (except
that, commencing with any fiscal quarter after December 31, 1996, such
percentage shall be decreased to one hundred percent (100%)); provided,
however, that in making the foregoing calculation, with respect to any
calendar quarter in which Borrower has made an Equity Offering, there shall
be excluded the amount of Distributions made during such calendar quarter to
Persons acquiring such Equity Offering, to the extent such Distributions
exceed the pro rata amount of Distributions that would have been payable to
such persons had Distributions been based upon the actual time that such
Person held interests in Borrower during calendar quarter in question (for
example, if an Equity Offering were successfully concluded in the third month
of any calendar quarter, the Persons acquiring interests pursuant to such new
Equity Offering would receive a full quarterly distribution as of the
relevant record date, as opposed to receiving a one-third (1/3) distribution
based on their actual period of ownership for such calendar quarter if pro
rata Distributions were permissible - in making the foregoing calculation,
then, two-thirds of the Distributions to the acquiring Persons would be
excluded);

(b) In the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, the Majority Banks may require that the Borrower make no
Distributions other than the minimum Distributions required under the Code to
maintain the REIT Status of the Borrower, as evidenced by a certification of
an Authorized Officer of the Borrower containing calculations in reasonable
detail satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent; and

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time when an Event of
Default shall have occurred and the maturity of the Obligations has been
accelerated, the Majority Banks may prohibit Borrower from making any
Distributions whatsoever, directly or indirectly.

Section 8.8. ASSET SALES. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary
shall sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Real Estate or other
Investment described in Section 8.3(j) or (k) or any of the Unencumbered
Operating Properties in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the value of the
Consolidated Total Assets of the Borrower, adjusted pursuant to Section 9.7
(except as the result of a condemnation or casualty and except for the
granting of Permitted Liens, as applicable) unless there shall have been
delivered to the Banks a statement that no Default or Event of Default exists
and a certification that the Borrower will be in compliance with its
covenants referred to therein after giving effect to such sale, transfer or
other disposition.

Section 8.9. DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY. Neither the Borrower nor any
Subsidiary shall engage, directly or indirectly, in the development of
commercial real estate except for the development of warehouse distribution
facilities (including, without limitation, the speculative development of
warehouse distribution facilities, but excluding build-to-suit development of
warehouse distribution facilities which remain 100% leased during
development), the aggregate cost of which facilities (on a fully developed
basis) Under Development at any one time shall not exceed twenty percent
(20%) of the value of the Consolidated Total Assets of the Borrower, adjusted
pursuant to Section 9.7. For purposes of this Section 8.9, the term
"development" shall include new construction or the substantial renovation or
rehabilitation of improvements to real property. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Borrower acknowledges that for the purposes
of this Agreement, (i) any interest by the Borrower or any Subsidiary in a
property which is proposed to be developed, or any interest therein pursuant
to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary has the right to approve site plans
or other plans and specifications or pursuant to which such party's
obligations are conditioned upon the achievement of certain initial lease-up
levels, or (ii) any agreement by the Borrower or any Subsidiary which
obligates such party to contribute or otherwise advance funds in connection
with or upon completion of the development of a property, or (iii) any
acquisition of a property which is proposed to be developed or which is under
development and initial lease-up at the time such agreement is entered into,
shall be considered a "development" for the purposes of this Section 8.9;
provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.9 shall prohibit the
Borrower or any Subsidiary from entering into an agreement to acquire Real
Estate at a time when such Real Estate has been developed and initially
leased by another Person.

Section 8.10. SOURCES OF CAPITAL. The Borrower shall, at all times
that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is engaging in any development
as provided in Section 8.9 or has entered into any agreement to acquire
properties under purchase agreements, maintain available sources of capital
equal to the

total cost to acquire and complete such developments and to purchase such
properties, which sources of capital shall be acceptable to the Agent in its
reasonable discretion. Amounts available to be disbursed for such purposes
pursuant to this Agreement may be considered as a source of capital for the
purposes of this Section 8.10. The Non-recourse Indebtedness described in
Section 8.1(f) shall be considered a source of such capital.

Section 8.11. RESTRICTION ON PREPAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS. The Borrower
shall not prepay the principal amount, in whole or in part, of any
Indebtedness other than the Obligations after the occurrence of any Event of
Default; provided, however, that this Section 8.11 shall not prohibit the
prepayment of Indebtedness which is financed solely from the proceeds of a
new loan which would otherwise be permitted by the terms of Section 8.1.

Section 9. FINANCIAL COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER.

Section 9.1. LIABILITIES TO TANGIBLE NET WORTH RATIO. The Borrower
will not, at the end of any fiscal quarter, permit the ratio of Consolidated
Total Liabilities to Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of the Borrower to
exceed 0.75 to 1.

Section 9.2. DEBT COVERAGE. The Borrower will not, at the end of any
fiscal quarter, permit the Funds from Operations plus expensed interest for
such fiscal quarter and the preceding three fiscal quarters (the "Test
Period") to be less than 2.5 times the Debt Service for the Test Period. For
purposes of testing compliance with this covenant only, if Debt Service
includes capitalized interest incurred as the result of Borrower or its
Subsidiary engaging in a development activity permitted by Section 8.9, Funds
from Operations for each fiscal quarter in which interest is so capitalized
as a result of such development shall include the Pro Forma Development Net
Operating Income for such development. For any fiscal quarter, the Pro Forma
Development Net Operating Income shall be the amount obtained by multiplying
(x) the quarterly Net Operating Income which the Borrower and the Agent
mutually agree will be derived immediately following the completion of such
development project and the delivery of leased premises to tenants with
signed leases on the basis of such signed leases in effect as of the date of
such calculation (any cancellation or termination options contained in such
leases must be acceptable to the Agent in the exercise of its reasonable
discretion), by (y) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the amount of Loans
advanced under this Agreement in connection with the construction of such
development project during the fiscal quarter in question, by (ii) the total
project costs incurred for such development project as of the end of the
fiscal quarter in question. The Borrower shall provide the Agent with copies
of such leases, information regarding project costs and such other
information, data and reports as the Agent shall require in order to test
compliance with this covenant.

Section 9.3. FIXED CHARGE COVERAGE. The Borrower will not, at the end
of any fiscal quarter, permit the Cash Available for Distribution plus
expensed interest for any Test Period to be less than 1.75 times the Debt
Service for such Test Period.

Section 9.4. BORROWING BASE. The Borrower will not, at the end of any
fiscal quarter, permit the Outstanding principal balance of the Loans and
Outstanding Letters of Credit (including Letters of Credit accepted but
unpaid) as of the date of determination to be greater than the Borrowing Base
as determined as of the same date.

Section 9.5. TANGIBLE NET WORTH. The Borrower will not, at the end of
any fiscal quarter, permit its Consolidated Tangible Net Worth to be less
than $244,646,000.00 plus the amount of any net proceeds received from any
Equity Offering subsequent to the Closing Date.

Section 9.6. REAL ESTATE ASSETS.

(a) The Borrower shall not, for any fiscal quarter, permit the
Asset Value of its direct or indirect interests in joint ventures or
partnerships (other than DownREITs) to exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the
value of the Consolidated Total Assets of the Borrower, adjusted pursuant to
Section 9.7.

(b) The Borrower shall not, for any fiscal quarter, permit its
direct or indirect interests in non-income producing land assets to exceed
eight percent (8%) of the value of the Consolidated Total Assets of the
Borrower, adjusted pursuant to Section 9.7; provided that such non-income
producing land assets shall be zoned for industrial development and all

judgment of the Majority Banks after giving consideration to the likelihood of

then, and in any such event, the Agent may, and upon the request of the Majority

respect to this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to be, and
they shall thereupon forthwith become, immediately due and payable without
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; PROVIDED that in the event of any Event
of Default specified in Section 12.1(h), Section 12.1(i) or Section 12.1(j), all
such amounts shall become immediately due and payable automatically and without
any requirement of notice from any of the Banks or the Agent. 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.

Section 12.2. LIMITATION OF CURE PERIODS. Notwithstanding anything
contained in Section 12.1 to the contrary, (i) no Event of Default shall exist
hereunder upon the occurrence of any failure described in Section 12.1(a) or

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
or provide Letters of Credit to the Borrower. If any other Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent, upon the election of the
Majority Banks, may by notice to the Borrower terminate the obligation to make
Loans or provide Letters of Credit to the Borrower. No termination under this
Section 12.2 shall relieve the Borrower of its obligations to the Banks arising
under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

Section 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 Section 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 Note 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 attorney's fees not to
exceed fifteen percent (15%) of such portion of the Obligations.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Outstanding
Letters of Credit (including Letters of Credit accepted but unpaid) shall, at
the Majority Banks' option, without demand upon or further notice to the
Borrower, be deemed to have been paid or disbursed by the Agent under the
Letter of Credit and a Loan to the Borrower from the Banks in such amount to
have been made and accepted, which Loan shall be immediately due and payable.

Section 12.5. DISTRIBUTION OF PROCEEDS. In the event that, following the
occurrence or 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 assets of the
Borrower, 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 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 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 other Obligations shall be made PARI PASSU among Obligations
with respect to the Agent's fee payable pursuant to Section 4.3 and all other
Obligations; (ii) in the event that any Bank shall have wrongfully failed or
refused to make an advance under Section 2.7 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), and
(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 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

Section 13. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

Section 14. THE AGENT.

Section 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 a
fiduciary relationship. Unless they have been expressly notified in writing by
all of the Banks to the contrary, 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.

Section 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.

Section 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 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.

Section 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 Notes, 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 Notes, or for any recitals or statements,
warranties or representations made herein 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 of its Subsidiaries or the 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 the Guaranty or
any holder of any of the Notes 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 or any of its Subsidiaries or the
Guarantor. 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.

Section 14.5. PAYMENTS.

(a) A payment by the Borrower or the Guarantor 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 exercise reasonable
efforts to distribute to each Bank on the same day as (but in no event 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
that the Agent fails to distribute such amounts within one Business Day as
provided above, 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.

(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 or (ii) to comply with the
provisions of Section 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, shall be deemed delinquent (a
"Delinquent Bank") and shall be deemed a Delinquent Bank until such time as such
delinquency is satisfied. A Delinquent Bank shall be deemed to have assigned
any and all payments due to it from the Borrower and the Guarantor, whether on
account of outstanding Loans, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining
nondelinquent Banks for application to, and reduction of, their respective PRO
RATA shares of all Outstanding Loans. The Delinquent Bank hereby authorizes the
Agent to distribute such payments to the nondelinquent Banks in proportion to
their respective PRO RATA shares of all Outstanding Loans. A Delinquent 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 nondelinquent Banks or as a result of other payments by the
Delinquent Banks to the nondelinquent 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.

Section 14.6. HOLDERS OF NOTES. Subject to the terms of Article 18, the
Agent may deem and treat the payee of 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.

Section 14.7. INDEMNITY. The Banks ratably agree hereby 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 reasonable expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the
Borrower as required by Section 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.

Section 14.8. AGENT AS BANK. In its individual capacity, FNBB 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 Notes
as it would have were it not also the Agent.

Section 14.9. RESIGNATION. Subject to the terms of Section 18.1, the
Agent may resign at any time by giving 60 days' prior written notice thereof to
the Banks and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Co-Agent (if two Co-
Agents, the Co-Agent selected by vote of the Majority Banks) shall be appointed
as a successor Agent provided that the Co-Agent is still a Bank, the Co-Agent's
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 Corporation and the Co-Agent has total assets in excess of
$10,000,000,000.00. If the Co-Agent fails to satisfy such conditions or
declines to serve as Agent, the Majority Banks shall have the right to appoint
as a successor Agent the other Co-Agent (if there are two Co-Agents) or any Bank
or any other banks satisfying the conditions contained in the immediately
preceding sentence if there is no other Co-Agent. Unless a Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent (including
the Co-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 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of
resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a
successor Agent, which shall be 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 Corporation and which has total
assets in excess of $10,000,000,000.00. 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 Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations hereunder

as Agent. After any retiring Agent's resignation, 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.

Section 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 shall, if (a) so
requested by the Majority Banks and (b) the Banks have provided to the Agent
such additional indemnities and assurances against expenses and liabilities as
the Agent may reasonably request, proceed to exercise all or any legal and
equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have. The Majority Banks may
direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such
exercise, the Banks hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless
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.

Section 14.11. DETERMINATIONS BY AGENT. Any and all determinations to be
made by the Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be
conclusive and binding absent manifest error and so long as the same shall be
determined in good faith by the Agent. Where no procedures for such
determinations are specified, such determinations shall be made in such manner
as Agent shall determine in its sole discretion, subject to the provisions of
this Section 14.11.

Section 15. EXPENSES.

The Borrower agrees to pay (a) the reasonable costs of producing and
reproducing this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other agreements
and instruments mentioned herein, (b) any taxes (including any interest and
penalties in respect thereto) payable by the Agent or any of the Banks (other
than taxes based upon the Agent's or any Bank's gross or net income), including
any recording, mortgage, documentary or intangibles taxes in connection with the
Loan Documents, or other taxes payable on or with respect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, including any such taxes payable by the Agent or
any of the Banks after the Closing Date under the Original Credit Agreement (the
Borrower hereby agreeing to indemnify the Agent and each Bank with respect
thereto), (c) all reasonable internal charges of the Agent (determined in good
faith and in accordance with the Agent's internal policies applicable generally
to its customers) for commercial finance exams and engineering and environmental
reviews and the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the counsel to
the Agent, counsel for the Banks and any local counsel to the Agent incurred in
connection with the preparation, administration or interpretation of the Loan
Documents and other instruments mentioned herein (excluding, however, the
preparation of agreements evidencing participations granted under Section 18.4),
each closing hereunder, and amendments, modifications, approvals, consents or
waivers hereto or hereunder, (d) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements
of the Agent incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation,
administration or interpretation of the Loan Documents and other instruments
mentioned herein, and the making of each advance hereunder, (e) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys'

fees and costs, which attorneys may be employees of any Bank or the Agent and
the fees and costs of appraisers, engineers, investment bankers or other
experts retained by any Bank or the Agent) incurred by any Bank or the Agent
in connection with (i) the enforcement of or preservation of rights under any
of the Loan Documents against the Borrower or the Guarantor or the
administration thereof after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default
and (ii) any litigation, proceeding or dispute whether arising hereunder or
otherwise, in any way related to the Agent's or any of the Bank's
relationship with the Borrower or the Guarantor, and (f) all reasonable fees,
expenses and disbursements of any Bank or the Agent incurred in connection
with UCC searches, UCC filings, title rundowns or title searches. The
covenants of this Section 15 shall survive payment or satisfaction of payment
of amounts owing with respect to the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
each of the Banks (excluding the Agent) shall only be entitled to recover up
to $5,000.00 each for the fees, expenses and disbursements of their counsel
incurred on or before the Closing Date.

Section 16. INDEMNIFICATION.

The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and the Banks
and each director, officer, employee, agent, attorney and any Person who
controls the Agent or any Bank from and against any and all claims, actions and
suits, whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all
liabilities, losses, damages and expenses of every nature and character arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby including, without limitation, (a)
any leasing fees and any brokerage, finders or similar fees asserted against any
Person indemnified under this Section 16 based upon any agreement, arrangement
or action made or taken, or alleged to have been made or taken, by the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries or the Guarantor, (b) any condition of the Real
Estate, (c) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of any of
the Loans or any actual or proposed use of a Letter of Credit by any beneficiary
of a Letter of Credit, (d) any actual or alleged infringement of any patent,
copyright, trademark, service xxxx or similar right of the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries or the Guarantor, (e) the Borrower and the Guarantor entering

actual or alleged violation of any law, ordinance, code, order, rule,

without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and
allocated costs of internal counsel incurred in connection with any such
investigation, litigation or other proceeding; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Borrower shall not be obligated under this Section 16 to indemnify any Person
for liabilities arising from such Person's own gross negligence or willful
misconduct. In litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Banks and the Agent
shall be entitled to select a single law firm as their own counsel and, in
addition to the foregoing indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly the
reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. If, and to the extent that the
obligations of the Borrower under this Section 16 are unenforceable for any
reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the
payment in satisfaction of such obligations which

is permissible under applicable law. The provisions of this Section 16 shall
survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the obligations of
the Banks hereunder.

Section 17. SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein, in
the Notes, in any of the other Loan Documents or in any documents or other
papers delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or
the Guarantor pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to have been relied
upon by the Banks and the Agent, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or
hereafter made by any of them, and shall survive the making by the Banks of any
of the Loans, as herein contemplated, and shall continue in full force and
effect so long as any amount due under this Agreement, the Notes, the Letters of
Credit or any of the other Loan Documents remains outstanding or any Bank has
any obligation to make any Loans or the Agent has any obligation to issue any
Letters of Credit. The indemnification obligations of the Borrower provided
herein and the other Loan Documents shall survive the full repayment of amounts
due and the termination of the obligations of the Banks hereunder and thereunder
to the extent provided herein and therein. All statements contained in any
certificate or other paper delivered to any Bank or the Agent at any time by or
on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the Guarantor pursuant
hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall
constitute representations and warranties by the Borrower or such Subsidiary or
the Guarantor hereunder.

Section 18. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION.

Section 18.1. CONDITIONS TO ASSIGNMENT BY BANKS. Except as provided
herein, each Bank may assign to another bank or other entity all (but not less
than all) of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all 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 its prior written consent to such assignment,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (provided that such consent
shall not be required for any assignment to another 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 of
such Bank), (b) the Borrower shall have given its prior written consent to such
assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed
(provided that such consent shall not be required if a Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing or for any assignment to another
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 of such Bank), (c) each such assignment shall be of all
the assigning Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (d) the
parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for recording
in the Register (as hereinafter defined), a notice of such assignment, together
with any Notes subject to such assignment, (e) in no event shall any voting,
consent or approval rights of a Bank be assigned to any Person controlling,
controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from
influence or control by, the Borrower or the Guarantor, which rights shall
instead be allocated PRO RATA among the other remaining Banks, (f) such assignee
shall have total assets as of the date of such

assignment of not less than $500,000,000, and (g) such assignment is subject
to the terms of any intercreditor agreement among the Banks and the Agent.

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, (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 Section 18.2, be
released from its obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) the Agent may
unilaterally amend SCHEDULE 1 to reflect such assignment. 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 and the Guarantor.

Section 18.2. REGISTER. The Agent 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

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

the parties to such assignment, together with each Note subject to such
assignment, the Agent shall (a) record the information contained therein in the

such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall 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 shall cause the Guarantor to deliver to the Agent an
acknowledgment in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent to the effect
that the Guaranty extends to and is applicable to each new Note. Such new Note
shall provide that it is a replacement for the surrendered Note, shall be in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the
surrendered Note, shall be dated the effective date of such assignment and shall
otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Note. The surrendered
Note shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.

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

amendments or modifications), (c) such participant shall have no direct rights

transfer any of its rights or obligations under any of the Loan Documents
without the prior written consent of each of the Banks.

Section 18.7. DISCLOSURE. The Borrower agrees that in addition to
disclosures made in accordance with standard banking practices any Bank may

Agent's account and the provisions of Section 14 may not be amended without the
written consent of the Agent. 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 shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in
similar or other circumstances.

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

EXHIBIT A

FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED NOTE

$_____________ April 21, 1997

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned MERIDIAN INDUSTRIAL TRUST, INC., a
Maryland corporation, hereby promises to pay to ______________________ or
order, in accordance with the terms of that certain Second Amended and
Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated April 21, 1997 (the "Credit
Agreement"), as from time to time in effect, among the undersigned, The First
National Bank of Boston, for itself and as Agent, and such other Banks as may
be from time to time named therein, to the extent not sooner paid, on or
before the Maturity Date the principal sum of ___________________________ and
No/100 Dollars ($________________), or such amount as may be advanced by the
payee hereof under the Credit Agreement with daily interest from the date
hereof, computed as provided in the Credit Agreement, on the principal amount
hereof from time to time unpaid, at a rate per annum on each portion of the
principal amount which shall at all times be equal to the rate of interest
applicable to such portion in accordance with the Credit Agreement, and with
interest on overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by applicable law,
on overdue installments of interest and late charges at the rates provided in
the Credit Agreement. Interest shall be payable on the dates specified in
the Credit Agreement, except that all accrued interest shall be paid at the
stated or accelerated maturity hereof or upon the prepayment in full hereof.
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Payments hereunder shall be made to The First National Bank of Boston,
as Agent for the payee hereof, 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
00000.

This Note is one of one or more Notes evidencing borrowings under and is
entitled to the benefits and subject to the provisions of the Credit
Agreement. The principal of this Note may be due and payable in whole or in
part prior to the maturity date stated above and is subject to mandatory
prepayment in the amounts and under the circumstances set forth in the Credit
Agreement, and may be prepaid in whole or from time to time in part, all as
set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything in this Note 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. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be
payable to the Banks in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest
payable to the Banks shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under
