principal amount of the Loans; (B) containing an agreed amount
endorsement with respect to the Improvements and Equipment waiving all
co-insurance provisions; (C) providing for no deductible in excess of

policy required under this subsection (i) and rental interruption
insurance under subsection (iii);
(ii) commercial general liability insurance against claims
for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring
upon, in or about the Property, such insurance (A) to be on the

Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence; (B) to continue

hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed
operations on an "if any" basis; (3) independent contractors; (4)
blanket contractual liability for all legal contracts; and (5)

containing an unlimited period of restoration and extended period of
indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to

rental income will be insured until such rental income either returns
to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of
twelve (12) months from the date that the Trust Property is repaired or
replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and
notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such
period, provided that the unlimited period of restoration endorsement
may be limited to the length of time

amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the projected gross
income from the Trust Property for a period of twelve (12) months from
the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are

thereafter based on Borrower's reasonable estimate of the gross income
from the Trust Property for the succeeding twelve (12) month period.
Subject to the rights of Lender and subject to the provisions of
paragraph 4(e)(x) below, all proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to
this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the
obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and
payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations
to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective
dates of payment provided for in the Note and the other Loan Documents
except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds
of such rental interruption insurance;
(iv) at all times during which structural construction,

(x) if "certified acts of terrorism", as declared by the
United States Government, are now or hereafter excluded from Borrower's
comprehensive all risk insurance policy or business income coverage,
Borrower shall obtain an endorsement to such policies, or separate
policies, insuring against all such "certified acts of terrorism" (such
acts or events so excluded, "TERRORISM ACTS"), at Borrower's option,
either (A) in an amount not less than Three Hundred Million and No/100
Dollars ($300,000,000) on an aggregate basis covering the Trust
Property and all other properties owned by Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx and/or his
Affiliates as of the date hereof or, following the transfer of indirect
interests in the Borrower to the OP, then all other properties owned by
the OP and/or its Affiliates and providing for a deductible not
exceeding $1,000,000.00 or (B) in a total amount not less than Three
Hundred and Fifty Million and No/100 Dollars ($350,000,000) on an
aggregate basis covering the Trust Property and all other properties
owned by the OP and/or its Affiliates as of the date hereof and
providing for a deductible of not in excess of 5% of the full
replacement value of the Trust Property; in either case, the
endorsement or policy shall be (x) in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Lender; and (y) non-cancelable (to the extent such
non-cancelable insurance is available in the marketplace) (insurance
meeting such requirements being referred to herein as "FULL COVERAGE");
provided the Borrower shall not be required to spend in excess of Three
Million and No/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) per annum for such coverage
and, in the event that Full Coverage is not available at a cost of
$3,000,000 per annum, then Borrower shall purchase insurance covering
Terrorism Acts in an amount equal to the principal balance of the
Loans, but shall not be required to maintain the full amount of such
coverage if such coverage is not available at a cost of $3,000,000 per
annum or less, provided that in the event that $3,000,000 is not
sufficient to purchase such coverage in an amount equal to the
principal balance of the Loans, then Borrower shall obtain the greatest
amount of coverage obtainable at a cost of $3,000,000 per annum;
In the event that the limits of insurance in place covering Terrorism Acts on a
portfolio basis are exhausted by damage to a property other than the Trust
Property, then Borrower shall restore the coverage provided for in clause (x)
above (or any lesser amount of coverage that is available if such coverage is
not available), to the extent such insurance is commercially available; and
(xi) upon sixty (60) days' written notice, such other
reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time
to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards
which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to
the Trust Property located in or around the region in which the Trust
Property is located.
-7-
(b) All insurance provided for in paragraph 3 (a) shall
be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the "POLICIES"
or in the singular, the "POLICY"), and shall be subject to the reasonable
approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees
and insureds. The Policies (or a "cut-through" endorsement, approved by Lender,
with respect to any such Policy) shall be issued by financially sound and
responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and,
except in the case of flood hazard insurance and earthquake insurance, having
either (i) a claims paying ability rating of "A" or better by Standard and
Poor's Ratings Services ("S&P") and an equivalent rating by Xxxxx'x Investors
Service, Inc. ("MOODY'S") or (ii) if the Policies are provided through a
syndicate of companies, (A) at least 75% of the coverage and first layer of
coverage shall have a claims paying ability rating of "A, X" or better (and the
equivalent thereof) by A.M. Best's Key Rating Guide ("BEST"), (B) no more than
15% of the Policies shall have a claims paying ability rating of "A, VIII" or
less by Best and (C) no more than 10% of the Policies shall have a claims paying
ability rating of "A-, VII" or less by Best's. The Policies described in
paragraph 3(a) (other than those strictly limited to liability protection) shall
designate Lender as loss payee and Lender shall be an additional named insured,
as its interests may appear. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration
dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender, certificates of insurance
evidencing the Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of
payment of the premiums due thereunder shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender.
(c) Subject to the provisions of paragraph 6 hereof,
Borrower shall pay the premiums for such Policies (the "INSURANCE PREMIUMS") as
the same become due and payable and shall furnish to Lender evidence of the
renewal of each of the Policies with receipts for the payment of the Insurance
Premiums or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender
(provided, however, that Borrower is not required to furnish such evidence of
payment to Lender in the event that such Insurance Premiums have been paid by
Lender pursuant to paragraph 6 hereof). If Borrower is required to furnish such
evidence and receipts pursuant to the preceding sentence and Borrower does not
furnish such evidence and receipts at least fifteen (15) days prior to the
expiration of any expiring Policy, then Lender may procure, but shall not be
obligated to procure, such insurance and pay the Insurance Premiums therefor,
and Borrower agrees to reimburse Lender for the cost of such Insurance Premiums
promptly on demand. Within thirty (30) Business Days after request by Lender,
Borrower shall obtain such increases in the amounts of coverage required
hereunder as may be reasonably requested by Lender, taking into consideration
changes in the value of money over time, changes in liability laws, changes in
prudent customs and practices of owners of property similar to the Trust
Property located in or around the region in which the Trust Property is located
and as may be available at commercially reasonable rates. Lender acknowledges
that the Policies delivered with respect to the Trust Property as of the date
hereof satisfy the requirements of this paragraph 3. Such approval shall
continue in effect until the expiration or termination of such Policies provided
that there is not a downgrade by S&P, Moody's or Best of any insurer providing
such Policies and, as a result thereof, Borrower fails to satisfy the rating
criteria set forth in paragraph 3(b). Any renewal or replacement of such
Policies, however, shall require Lender's approval as provided above in this
paragraph 3 unless (i) the companies providing such renewal or replacement
Policies are licensed to do business in the state where the Trust Property is
located and have a claims paying ability rating by S&P, Moody's and Best's
Insurance Reports that satisfy the requirements set forth in paragraph 3(b)
above or that, subject to the provisions of paragraph 3(e) below, such rating is
no less than the rating as of the date hereof of the company providing the
insurance approved by
-8-
Lender as of the date hereof, (ii) the coverage provided by such renewal or
replacement Policies is no less than the coverage approved by Lender as of the
date hereof, (iii) such renewal or replacement Policies contain in all material
respects the same terms and conditions as the Policies approved by Lender as of
the date hereof and (iv) Lender has not notified Borrower in accordance with
this paragraph 3 that the requirements for the Policies have changed since the
date hereof.
(d) The insurance coverage required under this paragraph
3 may be effected under one or more blanket Policies covering the Trust Property
and other property and assets not constituting a part of the Trust Property;
provided that any blanket Policy shall specify, except in the case of general
liability insurance, the portion of the total coverage of such blanket Policy
that is allocated exclusively to the Trust Property and shall comply in all
respects with the requirements of this paragraph 3. Lender hereby confirms that
it approves (i) the terms of the existing Property Insurance Sharing. Agreement
among Borrower and certain of its Affiliates, and (ii) that the Insurance
Premiums are financed through one or more finance companies (individually and/or
collectively, the "BLANKET INSURANCE PREMIUM FINANCING ARRANGEMENT" ) to whom
Borrower pays Borrower's allocable share of the annual initial deposit and the
monthly payments due for each blanket Policy to the applicable finance company
(with respect to each blanket Policy, such monthly payment, together with
one-twelfth (l/12th) of the allocable share of the annual initial deposit
necessary to accumulate such allocable share for such Policy at least thirty
(30) days prior to its due date, each, a "FINANCING INSTALLMENT").
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this paragraph 3, Lender shall accept an "all-risk" Policy issued by Factory
Mutual Insurance Company ("FACTORY MUTUAL"), so long as (I) Factory Mutual
maintains a general policy rating of "BBB" or better and a financial class of
"XIV" or better by Best and a claims paying ability rating of "A+" or better by
Fitch, and (II) in connection with any Securitization, Lender confirms that, in
Lender's reasonable determination based on information provided by any Rating
Agency, the ratings assigned to the portion of the Securitization represented by
the Loans will not be adversely affected as a result of such "all-risk" Policy
being issued by Factory Mutual. In the event that both of the conditions set
forth in clause (I) and (II) above are not being met at all times, then Borrower
shall at all times, at its sole cost and expense, maintain an "all risk" policy
that is otherwise in compliance with all of the applicable provisions of this
paragraph 3 and applicable Rating Agency requirements; provided that Borrower
shall have thirty (30) days (or such shorter period if the existing policies
would lapse prior to the end of such 30-day period) after the earlier of (A) the
failure of the condition in clause (I) above or (B) the date Lender notifies
Borrower of Lender's confirmation pursuant to clause (II) above to obtain an
"all risk" Policy meeting such applicable provisions and requirements (which may
be obtained through the issuance of a so-called "cut-through" endorsement).
4. CASUALTY.
(a) If the Trust Property shall be damaged or destroyed,
in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a "CASUALTY"), Borrower shall
give prompt notice thereof to Lender. Following the occurrence of a Casualty,
Borrower, regardless of whether insurance proceeds are available, shall promptly
proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the same to be of at least
-9-
equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such damage or
destruction (a "CASUALTY RESTORATION"), all to be effected in accordance with
applicable law.
(b) If a Casualty covered by any of the Policies (an
"INSURED CASUALTY") occurs where the loss does not exceed $2,500,000, provided
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may
settle and adjust any claim without the prior consent of Lender; provided such
adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner, and Borrower is
hereby authorized to collect and receipt for the Insurance Proceeds (as
hereinafter defined). In the event of an Insured Casualty where the loss exceeds
$2,500,000 (a "SIGNIFICANT CASUALTY"), Lender may, in its sole discretion,
settle and adjust any claim without the consent of Borrower and agree with the
insurer(s) in a commercially reasonable manner on the amount to be paid on the
loss, and the Proceeds shall be due and payable solely to Lender and held by
Lender in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount and disbursed in accordance
herewith. If Borrower or any party other than Lender is a payee on any check
representing Proceeds with respect to a Significant Casualty, Borrower shall
immediately endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, such check
payable to the order of Lender. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as
its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to endorse such check payable to
the order of Lender. The expenses incurred by Lender in the settlement,
adjustment and collection of the Proceeds shall become part of the Debt and
shall be reimbursed by Borrower to Lender upon demand. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, if in connection with a Casualty any insurance
carrier makes a payment under a property insurance Policy that Borrower proposes
be treated as business or rental interruption insurance, then, notwithstanding
any designation (or lack of designation) by the insurance carrier as to the
purpose of such payment, as between Lender and Borrower, such payment shall not
be treated as business or rental interruption insurance proceeds unless Borrower
has demonstrated to Lender's reasonable satisfaction that the remaining net
Proceeds that will be received from the property insurance carriers are
sufficient to pay 100% of the cost of fully restoring the Improvements or, if
such net Proceeds are to be applied to repay the Debt in accordance with the
terms hereof, that such remaining net Proceeds, together with any portion of the
amount treated as business or rental interruption insurance that will be paid to
Lender, will be sufficient to pay the Debt in full.
(c) Borrower shall promptly give Lender written notice of
the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain
proceeding (a "CONDEMNATION") and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all
papers served in connection with such Condemnation. Following the occurrence of
a Condemnation, Borrower, regardless of whether an Award (hereinafter defined)
is available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the
same to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of
substantially the same character as prior to such Condemnation (a "CONDEMNATION
RESTORATION", together with a Casualty Restoration, collectively a
"RESTORATION"), all to be effected in accordance with applicable law.
(d) Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower's
attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to collect,
receive and retain any award or payment ("AWARD") for any taking accomplished
through a Condemnation (a "TAKING") and to make any commercially reasonable
compromise or settlement in connection with any such Condemnation, subject to
the provisions of this Deed of Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower
shall have the right, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is
-10-
continuing, to compromise and collect or receive any award that does not exceed
$2,500,000. Notwithstanding any Taking by any public or quasi-public authority
(including, without limitation, any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation
of such a Taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in
the manner provided for in the Note, in this Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents and the Debt shall not be reduced unless and until any Award shall
have been actually received and applied by Lender to expenses of collecting the
Award and to discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest
paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive
out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided in the Note. Borrower
shall cause any Award that is payable to Borrower to be paid directly to Lender.
The expenses incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection of the Award
shall become part of the Debt and be secured hereby and shall be reimbursed by
Borrower to Lender upon demand.
(e) RESTORATION. The following provisions shall apply in
connection with the Restoration of the Premises and Improvements:
(i) If the Net Proceeds (hereinafter defined) shall be
less than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars
($2,500,000) and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less
than Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000),
the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt,
provided that all of the conditions set forth in paragraph 4(e)(iii)(A)
are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to
expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due
diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Deed of
Trust.
(ii) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than Two
Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000) or the
costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than Two
Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000) Lender
shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance
with the provisions of this paragraph 4. The term "NET PROCEEDS" for
purposes of this paragraph 4 shall mean: (A) the net amount of all
insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to paragraph 3(a)(i),
(iv), (vi), (ix) and (x) (and any similar or comparable types of
insurance obtained pursuant to paragraph 3(a)(xi)) as a result of such
damage or destruction, after deduction of its reasonable costs and
expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if
any, in collecting same ("INSURANCE PROCEEDS"), or (B) the net amount
of the Award, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses
(including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any,
actually incurred in collecting same ("CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS"),
whichever the case may be.
(iii) The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower
for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met:
(A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing;
(B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are
Insurance Proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of the
total floor area of the Improvements has been
-11-
damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such
fire or other casualty or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds
are Condemnation Proceeds, less than fifteen percent (15%) of
the land constituting the Premises is taken, and such land is
located along the perimeter or periphery of the Premises, and
no portion of the Improvements is located in such land;
(C) The Required Leases (hereinafter defined)
and Leases demising in the aggregate a percentage amount equal
to or greater than the Rentable Space Percentage (hereinafter
defined) of the total rentable space in the Improvements shall
remain in full force and effect during and after the
completion of the Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence
of any such fire or other casualty or taking, whichever the
case may be, and will require the tenants thereunder to make
all necessary repairs and restorations thereto at their sole
cost and expense. The term (x) "RENTABLE SPACE PERCENTAGE"
shall mean (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance
Proceeds, a percentage amount equal to seventy-five percent
(75%) and (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation
Proceeds, a percentage amount equal to seventy-five percent
(75%) which Rentable Space Percentage shall, in each case,
include each of the Required Leases. For purposes of the
foregoing, the "REQUIRED LEASES" shall mean, collectively, the
Leases with Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, Xxxxxx,
Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP and Oaktree Capital or any replacement
Lease executed and delivered in accordance with the terms and
provisions of paragraph 8 hereof with respect to the space
demised to any of the foregoing tenants, provided such
replacement Lease demises not less than 50,000 square feet;
(D) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as
soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than
ninety (90) days after such damage or destruction or taking,
whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue
the same to satisfactory completion;
(E) Lender shall be reasonably satisfied that
any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of
principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred
with respect to the Trust Property as a result of the
occurrence of any such fire or other casualty or taking,
whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net
Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in paragraph
3(a)(iii), if applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrower;
(F) Lender shall be satisfied that the
Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to
occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2)
the earliest date required for such completion under the terms
of any Required Lease, (3) such time as may be required under
applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation in order
to repair and restore the Property to the condition it was in
immediately prior to such fire or other casualty or to as
nearly as possible the condition it was in immediately prior
to such taking, as applicable or (4) the expiration of the
insurance coverage referred to in paragraph 3(a)(iii);
-12-
(G) the Trust Property and the use thereof after
the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under
all applicable zoning laws, ordinances, rules and regulations
and all necessary operating or reciprocal easement agreements
for the operation and maintenance of the Property are, or
remain, in effect;
(H) the Restoration shall be done and completed
by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in
compliance with all applicable governmental laws, rules and
regulations (including, without limitation, all applicable
environmental laws); and
(I) such fire or other casualty or taking, as
applicable, does not result in a material loss of access to
the Trust Property.
(iv) Unless such amounts are payable to Borrower pursuant
to this paragraph 4, the Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in an
interest-bearing account for the benefit of Borrower (which interest
shall be added to and become a part of the Net Proceeds) and, until
disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph 4, shall
constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under
the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to,
or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the
Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender
that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except
to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested
disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in
full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders,
mechanic's or materialman's liens or notices of intention to file same,
or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the
Trust Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either
been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of
record or in the alternative fully insured to the reasonable
satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the title insurance
policy.
(v) All plans and specifications required in connection
with any Restoration following a Casualty or Condemnation resulting in
Net Proceeds of $2,500,000 or more shall be subject to prior review and
reasonable acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent
consulting engineer selected by Lender (the "CASUALTY CONSULTANT")
provided that if the correspondence from Borrower to Lender requesting
approval of any such plans and specifications (or contractors,
subcontractors or materialmen in connection therewith) contains a bold
faced, conspicuous legend at the top of the first page stating that "IF
YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL IN WRITING WITHIN 15
BUSINESS DAYS, YOUR APPROVAL SHALL BE DEEMED GIVEN", and if Lender
fails to respond to such request for approval in writing within fifteen
(15) Business Days after receipt by Lender of such written request, the
related plans and specifications and all information reasonably
required in order to adequately review the same, then such approval
will be deemed given. Lender shall have the use of the plans and
specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or
obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the
contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in any Restoration
following a Casualty or Condemnation resulting in Net Proceeds of
$2,500,000 or more, as well as the contracts
-13-
under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review
and acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant, which acceptance
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All costs
and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net
Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation,
reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant's
fees, shall be paid by Borrower.
(vi) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make
disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the
costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of
the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the
Casualty Retainage. The term "CASUALTY RETAINAGE" shall mean an amount
equal to ten percent (10%) of the hard costs actually incurred for work
in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty
Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty
Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth above in this paragraph 4(e), be less than the
amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors
and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage
shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender
that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the
provisions of this paragraph 4(e) and that all approvals necessary for
the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all
appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Lender
receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the
Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the
Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the
portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any
contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as
of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that
the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily
completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with
the provisions of the contractor's, subcontractor's or materialman's
contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the
lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the
contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested
by Lender or by the title company issuing the title insurance policy,
and Lender receives an endorsement to the title insurance policy
insuring the continued priority of the lien of the this Deed of Trust
and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If
required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty
Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has
issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor,
subcontractor or materialman.
(vii) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements
of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
(viii) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed
balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in
consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full
the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant
to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration,
Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the "Net PROCEEDS DEFICIENCY")
with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall
be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be
held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually
-14-
incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions
applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so
disbursed pursuant to this paragraph 4(e) shall constitute additional
security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents.
(ix) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the
remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited
with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the
Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of
this paragraph 4(e), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory
to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration
have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower,
provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be
continuing under the Note, this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan
Documents.
(x) Notwithstanding the last sentence of paragraph
3(a)(iii) and provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, proceeds
received by Lender on account of the rental or business interruption
insurance specified in paragraph 3(a)(iii) above with respect to any
Casualty shall be deposited by Lender directly into the Cash Collateral
Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) and allocated as
Rents in accordance with paragraph 10(a)(i) through (xi) of the Note
but (a) only to the extent it reflects a replacement for (i) lost Rents
that would have been due under Leases existing on the date of such
Casualty, and/or (ii) lost Rents under Leases that had not yet been
executed and delivered at the time of such Casualty which Borrower has
proven to the insurer under the related Policy would have been due
under such Leases (and then only to the extent such proceeds disbursed
by such insurer reflect a replacement for such past due Rents) and (b)
only to the extent necessary to fully make the disbursements required
by paragraph 10(a)(i) through (xi) of the Note. All other such proceeds
shall be held by Lender and disbursed in accordance with this paragraph
4(e).
(f) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made
available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net
Proceeds pursuant to paragraph 4(e)(ix) may be retained and applied by Lender
toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such
order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem
proper, or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole
or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall designate, in its
discretion. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any
application of Net Proceeds to the Debt shall not require any payment of the
Yield Maintenance Premium or any other premium or penalty.
5. PAYMENT OF TAXES, ETC. Subject to the provisions of
paragraph 6 hereof, Borrower shall pay all taxes, assessments, water rates and
sewer rents, now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Trust
Property or any part thereof (the "TAXES") on or before the last date prior to
which any interest, late fees or penalties would begin to accrue (the
"DELINQUENCY DATE") and all ground rents, maintenance charges, other
impositions, and other charges, including, without limitation, vault charges and
license fees for the use of vaults, chutes and similar areas adjoining the
Premises, now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Trust
Property or any part thereof (the "OTHER CHARGES") as the same become due and
payable. Borrower will deliver to Lender receipts for payment or other evidence
satisfactory to
-15-
Lender that the Taxes and Other Charges have been so paid or are not then
delinquent no later than the date on which the Taxes and/or Other Charges would
otherwise be delinquent if not paid; provided, however, Borrower shall not be
required to deliver to Lender such evidence of payment with respect to any Taxes
or Other Charges that are paid by Lender pursuant to paragraph 6 hereof.
Borrower shall not suffer and shall promptly cause to be paid and discharged any
lien or charge whatsoever which may be or become a lien or charge against the
Trust Property, and shall promptly pay for all utility services provided to the
Trust Property.
6. TAX AND INSURANCE IMPOUND FUND: DEFERRED MAINTENANCE

MINIMUM OCCUPANCY ESCROW FUND; REPLACEMENT/LEASING ESCROW FUND.
(a) Borrower shall pay to Lender (i) (A) with respect to
Taxes that are required to be paid prior to December 10, 2003 (which date is the
last date prior to which any interest, late fees or penalties would commence
accruing with respect to Taxes due and payable on November 1, 2003), on the date
hereof an amount equal to $1,187,817 and on each Payment Date (as defined in the
Note) up to and including the Payment Date occurring in November, 2003, an
amount equal to $296,954 and (B) on each Payment Date from and after the Payment
Date occurring in December, 2003, one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates
will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to
accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty
(30) days prior to their Delinquency Date, and (ii) (A) on the date hereof, an
amount equal to $168,460 and (B) (1) for so long as the applicable Blanket

each Payment Date (as defined in the Note) the Financing Installment for the
next occurring payment under the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing
Arrangement and/or (2) with respect to any Insurance Premiums not covered by a
Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, on each Payment Date (as
defined in the Note) one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates
will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon
the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to
pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (i) and (ii) above hereinafter
called the "TAX AND INSURANCE IMPOUND FUND"). Lender will apply the Tax and
Insurance Impound Fund to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to
be made by Borrower pursuant to paragraphs 3 and 5 hereof and/or to payments due
to the applicable finance company under the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium
Financing Arrangement, as applicable. In making any payment relating to the Tax
and Insurance Impound Fund, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or
estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) or
insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the
accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax,
assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount
of the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and
Insurance Premiums pursuant to paragraphs 3 and 5 hereof, Lender shall, in its
sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against
future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund. In allocating
such excess, Lender may deal with the person shown on the records of Lender to
be the owner of the Trust Property. If at any time Lender determines that the
Tax and Insurance Impound Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay the items
set forth in (i) and (ii) above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such
determination
-16-
and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that
Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30)
days prior to delinquency of the Taxes and/or expiration of the Policies, as the
case may be. Until expended or applied as above provided, any amounts in the Tax
and Insurance Impound Fund shall constitute additional security for the Debt.
The Tax and Insurance Impound Fund shall not constitute a trust fund and may be
commingled with other monies held by Lender. The Tax and Insurance Impound Fund
shall be held in an interest bearing account in Lender's name at a financial
institution selected by Lender in its sole discretion. All earnings or interest
on the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund shall become part of the Tax and Insurance
Impound Fund and shall be disbursed in accordance with this paragraph 6(a). If
Lender so elects at any time, Borrower shall provide, at Borrower's expense, a
tax service contract for the Term issued by a tax reporting agency acceptable to
Lender. If Lender does not so elect, Borrower shall reimburse Lender for the
cost of making annual tax searches throughout the Term.
(b) Borrower shall pay to Lender on the date hereof the
sum of Fifty-Nine Thousand Two Hundred Seventy-Two and 00/100 Dollars ($59,272)

requested and, if required by Lender for requests in excess of $50,000.00 for a
single item, conditional lien waivers and releases from all parties furnishing
materials and/or services in connection with the requested payment. Lender may
issue joint checks payable to Borrower and the contractor or other person to
whom payment is due with respect to any requested payment. Lender may require an
inspection of the Trust Property at Borrower's expense prior to making a monthly
disbursement in order to verify completion of repairs of items in excess of
$50,000.00 for which reimbursement or payment is sought. The Deferred
Maintenance Fund shall be held in an interest bearing account in Lender's name
at a financial institution selected by Lender in its sole discretion. All
earnings or interest on the Deferred Maintenance Fund shall be and become part
of such Deferred Maintenance Fund and shall be disbursed as provided in this
paragraph 6(b) Upon completion of the work set forth in Exhibit C attached
hereto, provided no Event of Default is then continuing, Lender shall disburse
to Borrower any and all funds remaining on deposit in the Deferred Maintenance
Fund. Until expended, applied or released as above provided, the Deferred
Maintenance Fund shall constitute additional security for the Debt. The Deferred
Maintenance Fund shall not constitute a trust fund and may be commingled with
other monies held by Lender.

Escrow Fund shall be held in an interest bearing account in Lender's name at a
financial institution selected by Lender in its sole discretion. All earnings or

the continuance of an NOI Trigger Event, (A) Borrower shall deposit on each
Payment Date all Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Note) into the
Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund until the amount on deposit in the
Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund equals (1) the product of (y) the Monthly

been outstanding, less (2) any amounts previously expended by Borrower for
tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital improvements, replacements
and/or repairs for which Borrower would have otherwise been entitled to

Amounts pursuant to and in accordance with paragraph 6(f)(i) and for which
Borrower submits to Lender such invoices or other evidence of such expenditures
as Lender may reasonably require (the amount of such deposit is hereinafter

(iii) For purposes of this paragraph 6(f), (A) "NOI TRIGGER
EVENT" shall mean any period commencing on the date in which it is determined

date of such calculation is less than $23,000,000 and which shall be deemed to
continue until such time as the Net Operating Income equals or exceeds
$23,000,000 for two consecutive calendar quarters, (B) "NET OPERATING INCOME"
shall mean as of any date, (1) the annualized Gross Income from Operations (as
hereinafter defined) based on Leases In Place as of the most recently ended
calendar quarter less (2) the actual Operating Expenses incurred during the
preceding period of twelve consecutive calendar months ending on the last day of
the most recently ended calendar quarter (as adjusted pursuant to the
-21-
definition of "Operating Expenses" below), as reasonably determined by Lender
and in accordance with current rating agency criteria, (C) "GROSS INCOME FROM
OPERATIONS" shall mean all income, computed in accordance with GAAP (as
hereinafter defined), except as otherwise provided herein, derived from the
ownership and operation of the Trust Property from whatever source, including,
but not limited to, rents, utility charges, escalations, forfeited security
deposits, service fees or charges, license fees, parking fees, and other
pass-throughs or reimbursements paid by tenants under Leases In Place with
respect to the Trust Property of any nature (adjusted for projected increases in
fixed expenses as provided in the definition of "Expenses" herein) but excluding
sales, use and occupancy or other taxes on receipts required to be accounted for
by Borrower to any government or governmental agency, refunds and uncollectible
accounts, interest on credit accounts, any one-time or other non-periodic
payments by tenants under their respective Leases other than pre-paid rent by

occurrence of the month in which such pre-paid rent was otherwise payable),
proceeds of casualty insurance and condemnation awards (other than business
interruption or other loss of income insurance) and any disbursements to
Borrower from any escrow fund established pursuant to any Loan Document, (D)
"LEASES IN PLACE" shall mean Leases of space at the Trust Property under which
the tenant has accepted the demised premises, opened for business and is then
obligated to pay rent (provided that Borrower shall not receive credit for rent
payable under such Lease during the period commencing on the latter to occur of
the date that is twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Lease term or
the date that the renewal or extension option in the Lease, if any, expires, if
(1) the Lease has not been renewed or extended pursuant to and in accordance
with the Lease, or (2) a replacement tenant has not executed a Lease for all or
a portion of the space then subject to the related Lease in Place in accordance
with the provisions of this Deed of Trust (but in the case of this clause (2),
Borrower shall only receive credit for rent payable under such Lease to the
extent of the space so re-let), and with respect to which no bankruptcy
proceeding has been commenced against the tenant that has not been dismissed;
provided that if a tenant that has a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least
"BBB-" or its equivalent ("investment grade") and no worse than a "stable"
outlook by any two of S&P, Xxxxx'x and/or Fitch, such tenant shall not be
required to be open for business; provided, further, that if a Lease In Place is
subject to any unescrowed rent concession or credit, such unescrowed rent
concession or credit shall be deducted from the rent payable under such Lease In
Place when determining the rent payable under such Leases In Place, provided
that such rent concession or credit shall be amortized over the primary lease
term (excluding any extension options), provided such primary lease term shall
be reduced by assuming that any and all lease cancellation options contained in
such Lease are exercised. Above market rents payable under Leases In Place will
be adjusted, in Lender's reasonable determination, down to the applicable market
rents when determining the rent payable under such Lease In Place if the tenant
thereunder is not investment grade. (For purposes of this paragraph, Xxxxxx,
Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association and LAUSD will be
deemed to constitute investment grade tenants.), and (E) "OPERATING EXPENSES"

available information to Borrower), but excluding capital expenditures for the
Trust Property, tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions for the Trust
Property, depreciation, debt service, contributions to any reserves required
under the Loan Documents and extraordinary, non-recurring expenses. To the
extent that the definitions of Net Operating Income, Gross Income from
Operations, Operating Expenses and Leases in Place deviate from GAAP, the
definitions of such terms contained herein shall govern.
(g) (i) In lieu of making the payments to either of the
Xxxxxx Xxxx Escrow Fund, the Outstanding Tenant Allowance Escrow Fund, the
Minimum Occupancy Escrow Fund or the Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund, Borrower
may deliver to Lender one or more Letters of Credit (as hereinafter defined) in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(g). Additionally, Borrower may
deliver to Lender one or more Letters of Credit in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6(g) in lieu of deposits previously made to the
Xxxxxx Xxxx Escrow Fund, the Outstanding Tenant Allowance Escrow Fund, the
Minimum Occupancy Escrow Fund or the Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund and upon
such delivery, provided that no Event of Default is then continuing, obtain the
release of such amounts previously deposited. The aggregate amount of proceeds
available to be drawn under the Letters of Credit and cash on deposit in the
Xxxxxx Xxxx Escrow Fund, the Outstanding Tenant Allowance Escrow Fund, the
Minimum Occupancy Escrow Fund or the Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund, as
applicable, shall at all times be at least equal to the aggregate amount which
Borrower is then required to have on deposit in the Xxxxxx Xxxx Escrow Fund, the
Outstanding Tenant Allowance Escrow Fund, the Minimum Occupancy Escrow Fund
and/or the Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund, as applicable, pursuant to this Deed
of Trust. Borrower shall give Lender no less than thirty (30) days notice of
Borrower's election to deliver a Letter of Credit and Borrower shall pay to
Lender all of Lender's reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection
therewith. Borrower shall not be entitled to draw from any such Letter of
Credit. Upon thirty (30) days notice to Lender, Borrower may replace a Letter of
Credit with a cash deposit to the Xxxxxx Xxxx Escrow Fund, the Outstanding
Tenant Allowance Escrow Fund, the Minimum Occupancy Escrow Fund or the
Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund. Prior to the return of a Letter of Credit,
Borrower shall deposit an amount equal to the amount that would have accumulated
in the Xxxxxx Xxxx Escrow Fund, the Outstanding Tenant Allowance Escrow Fund,
the Minimum Occupancy Escrow Fund or the Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund, as
applicable, and not been disbursed in accordance with this Deed of Trust if such
Letter of Credit had not been delivered. Each Letter of Credit delivered under
this Deed of Trust shall be additional security for the payment of the Debt.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, at its
option, to draw on any Letter of Credit and to apply all or any part thereof to
the payment of the items for which such Letter of Credit was established or to
apply each such Letter of Credit to payment of the Debt in such order,
proportion or priority as Lender may determine. On the Maturity Date, any such
Letter of Credit may be applied to reduce the Debt. In addition to any other
right Lender may have to draw upon a Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms and
conditions of this Deed of Trust, unless Borrower has deposited cash in the
applicable reserve fund sufficient to
-23-
replace the Letter of Credit as provided above, Lender shall have the additional
rights to draw in full any Letter of Credit: (a) with respect to any evergreen
Letter of Credit, if Lender has received a notice from the issuing bank that the
Letter of Credit will not be renewed and a substitute Letter of Credit is not
provided at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the
outstanding Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (b) with respect to any
Letter of Credit with a stated expiration date, if Lender has not received a
notice from the issuing bank that it has renewed the Letter of Credit at least
ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which such Letter of Credit is
scheduled to expire and a substitute Letter of Credit is not provided at least
ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the outstanding Letter of
Credit is scheduled to expire; (c) upon receipt of notice from the issuing bank
that the Letter of Credit will be terminated (except if the termination of such
Letter of Credit is permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Deed
of Trust or a substitute Letter of Credit is provided); or (d) if Lender has
received notice that the bank issuing the Letter of Credit shall cease to be an
Eligible Institution (as hereinafter defined) and Borrower has not provided a
substitute Letter of Credit or deposited cash to replace the Letter of Credit
within five (5) days after Lender has received such notice. In the event that
Lender draws in full any Letter of Credit as a result of any of the events
described in clauses (a)-(d) above, provided there is no Event of Default then
continuing, (x) Lender shall deposit all proceeds of such Letter of Credit in
the applicable reserve fund that was not being funded with monthly cash deposits
as a result of such Letter of Credit having been posted and (y) if the proceeds
of such Letter of Credit exceed the amount that would have otherwise been on
deposit in such reserve fund in the event that Borrower had not posted such
Letter of Credit, any excess amounts shall remain on deposit in such reserve
fund and shall be credited against Borrower's future deposit obligations into
such reserve fund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the
above, Lender is not obligated to draw any Letter of Credit upon the happening
of an event specified in (a), (b), (c) or (d) above and shall not be liable for
any losses sustained by Borrower due to the insolvency of the bank issuing the
Letter of Credit if Lender has not drawn the Letter of Credit.
(ii) For the purposes of this Section 6(e), (A) "LETTER OF
CREDIT" shall mean an irrevocable, unconditional, transferable, clean
sight draft letter of credit acceptable to Lender and the Rating
Agencies (either an evergreen letter of credit or one which does not
expire until at least thirty (30) days after the Maturity Date) for
which Borrower shall have no reimbursement obligation and which
reimbursement obligation is not secured by the Trust Property or any
other property pledged to secure the Note in favor of Lender and
entitling Lender to draw thereon in New York, New York, issued by a
domestic Eligible Institution or the U.S. agency or branch of a foreign
Eligible Institution. If at any time the bank issuing any such Letter
of Credit shall cease to be an Eligible Institution, subject to
Borrower's rights under clause (d) of paragraph 6(e)(i) above, Lender
shall have the right to draw down the same in full and hold the
proceeds of such draw in accordance with the applicable provisions
hereof and (B) "ELIGIBLE INSTITUTION" shall mean a federal or state
chartered depository institution or trust company insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation the short term unsecured debt
obligations or commercial paper of which are rated at least A-l by S&P,

which funds are held for thirty (30) days or less or, in the case of
Letters of Credit or accounts in which funds are held for more than
thirty (30) days, the long term unsecured debt obligations of which are
rated at least "AA" by Fitch and S&P and "Aa2" by Xxxxx'x.
-24-
(h) Borrower hereby pledges to Lender and grants to
Lender a security interest in any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in
the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund, the Deferred Maintenance Escrow Fund, the
Xxxxxx Xxxx Escrow Fund and the Replacement/Leasing Escrow Fund (collectively,
the "FUNDS") as additional security for the payment of the Debt. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default and prior to the acceptance of a cure thereof
by Lender, Lender shall have no obligation to disburse any amounts held in the
Funds to the Borrower and may apply any sums then present in such funds to the
payment of the Debt in any order in its sole discretion. All reasonable third
party out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in the disbursement of
any of the Funds, if any, shall be paid by Borrower promptly upon demand. The
Funds shall be held in a segregated account in Lender's name at a financial
institution selected by Lender in its sole discretion. At the direction of
Borrower, Lender shall deposit the amounts held in the Funds in Permitted
Investments (as defined herein) selected by Borrower. All investment earnings on
the Funds shall be (i) added to and become part of its respective Fund, (ii)
taxed as income of the Borrower, (iii) for the benefit of Borrower, subject to
Lender's rights pursuant to this Deed of Trust, and (iv) disbursed in accordance
herewith. Lender shall not be responsible for any losses resulting from the
investment of the Funds or for obtaining any specific level or percentage of
earnings on such investment.

Investments (i) through (ix) above must have a Xxxxx'x rating of (a) "A2 or P-1"

7. ALTERATIONS. Borrower shall obtain Lender's prior
written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to
any alterations to the Improvements, the cost of which is reasonably anticipated
to exceed $1,000,000 (the "THRESHOLD AMOUNT") or that will have a material
adverse effect on Borrower's financial condition, the use, operation or value of
the Trust Property or the net operating income with respect to the Trust
Property, other than (a) tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the terms
of any Lease executed on or before the date hereof, (b) tenant improvement work
performed pursuant to the terms and provisions of a Lease executed after the
date hereof and not adversely affecting any structural component of any
Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any Improvements or the
exterior of any building constituting a part of any Improvements (it being
understood that the foregoing provision shall not require Lender's consent to
Tenants' exterior signage pursuant to any Lease approved by Lender in accordance
with the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust) or (c) alterations
performed in connection with the restoration of the Trust Property after the
occurrence of a Casualty or Condemnation in accordance with the terms and
provisions of this Deed of Trust. If Lender fails to respond to a request for
consent under this paragraph 7 within ten (10) Business Days of receipt thereof,
such consent shall be deemed granted, provided that such request shall have been
accompanied by all information requested by Lender or reasonably necessary for
Lender to evaluate such request and shall have clearly stated, in 14 point type
or greater, that if Lender fails to respond to such request within ten (10)
Business Days, Lender's consent shall be deemed to have been granted. If Lender
refuses to grant such consent, Lender shall specify in writing the reasons for
such refusal. Any approval by Lender of the plans, specifications or working
drawings for alterations of the Trust Property shall not create responsibility
or liability on behalf of Lender for their completeness, design, sufficiency or
their compliance with applicable laws. Lender may condition any such approval
upon receipt of a certificate of compliance with applicable laws from an
independent architect, engineer, or other person reasonably acceptable to
Lender. If the total unpaid amounts due and payable with
-28-
respect to alterations to the Improvements (other than such amounts to be paid
or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases or paid from escrow accounts
established hereunder) shall at any time exceed the Threshold Amount, Borrower
shall promptly deliver to Lender as security for the payment of such amounts and
as additional security for Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents any
of the following: (1) cash, (2) U.S. Treasury securities, (3) other securities
having a rating acceptable to Lender and that the applicable Rating Agencies
(hereinafter defined) have confirmed in writing will not, in and of itself,
result in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the initial, or, if
higher, then current ratings assigned in connection with any securitization of
the Loans (a "SECURITIZATION"), or if a Securitization has not occurred, any
ratings to be assigned in connection with a Securitization, or (4) a Letter of
Credit. Such security shall be in an amount equal to the excess of the total
unpaid amounts with respect to alterations to the Improvements (other than such
amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases or from escrow
accounts established hereunder) over the Threshold Amount. Upon completion of
the alterations to the satisfaction of Lender in its reasonable discretion
Lender shall promptly return to Borrower such additional security. For purposes
of this Deed of Trust, "RATING AGENCIES" shall mean, prior to the final
Securitization of the Loans, each of S&P, Xxxxx'x and Fitch, Inc., or any other
nationally recognized statistical rating agency which has been designated by
Lender and, after the final Securitization of the Loans, shall mean any of the
foregoing that have rated any Securities.
8. LEASES AND RENTS.
(a) Borrower does hereby absolutely and unconditionally
assigns to Lender, all Borrower's right, title and interest in all current and
future Leases and Rents, it being intended by Borrower that this assignment
constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional
security only. Such assignment to Lender shall not be construed to bind Lender
to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained
in any such Lease or otherwise impose any obligation upon Lender. Borrower
agrees to execute and deliver to Lender such additional instruments, in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender, as may hereafter be requested by Lender to
further evidence and confirm such assignment. Nevertheless, subject to the terms
of this paragraph, Lender grants to Borrower a revocable license to operate and
manage the Trust Property and to collect the Rents. Borrower shall hold the
Rents, or a portion thereof, sufficient to discharge all current sums due on the
Debt, in trust for the benefit of Lender for use in the payment of such sums.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and prior to the acceptance of a cure
thereof by Lender, without the need for notice or demand, the license granted to
Borrower herein shall automatically be revoked, and Lender shall immediately be
entitled to possession of all Rents, whether or not Lender enters upon or takes
control of the Trust Property. Upon the acceptance by Lender of a cure of any
Event of Default, Lender shall reinstate the license granted to Borrower herein.
Lender is hereby granted and assigned by Borrower the right, at its option, upon
revocation of the license granted herein, to enter upon the Trust Property in
person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Any Rents
collected after the revocation of the license may be applied toward payment of
the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall
deem proper.
(b) All Leases shall be subordinate to this Deed of Trust
and the tenant thereunder shall agree to attorn to Lender either pursuant to the
Lease or a subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement executed by
such tenant and Lender. None of the
-29-
Leases shall contain any option to purchase, any right of first refusal to
purchase or any right to terminate the lease term (except for termination rights
(i) set forth in Leases executed prior to, or on, the date hereof or (ii)
arising from a taking or the destruction of all or substantially all of the
Trust Property or all or substantially all of a tenant's demised premises).
Leases executed after the date hereof shall not contain any provisions which
adversely affect the Trust Property or which might adversely affect the rights
of any holder of the Loans without the prior written consent of Lender. Each
tenant shall conduct business only in that portion of the Trust Property covered
by its lease. Upon request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with executed copies
of all Leases.
(c) Borrower shall not, without the prior consent of
Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned (i)
enter into any Lease of all or any part of the Trust Property in excess of
27,013 rentable square feet (a "MAJOR LEASE"), (ii) cancel, terminate (other
than as a result of a tenant default thereunder), abridge or otherwise modify
the terms of any Major Lease unless such action is required by the terms
thereof, or accept a surrender thereof, (iii) consent to any assignment of or
subletting under any Major Lease not in accordance with its terms, (iv) cancel,
terminate, abridge or otherwise modify any guaranty of any Major Lease or the
terms thereof, (v) accept prepayments of installments of Rents for a period of
more than one (1) month in advance (other than estimated payments of
reimbursable expenses paid by tenants pursuant to their Leases) or (vi) further
assign the whole or any part of the Leases or the Rents. If Lender fails to
respond to a request for consent under this paragraph 8(c) within ten (10)
Business Days of receipt thereof, such consent shall be deemed granted, provided
that such request shall have been accompanied by all information requested by
Lender or reasonably necessary for Lender to evaluate such request and shall
have clearly stated, in 14 point type or greater, that if Lender fails to
respond to such request within ten (10) Business Days, Lender's consent shall be
deemed to have been granted. In the event that Lender refuses to grant any such
consent, Lender shall specify in writing the reasons for such refusal. In
addition, Borrower shall not (A) lease all or any part of the Trust Property,
(B) cancel, terminate (other than as a result of a tenant default thereunder),
abridge or otherwise modify the terms of any Lease, or accept a surrender
thereof, (C) consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Lease not in
accordance with its terms or (D) cancel, terminate, abridge or otherwise modify
any guaranty of any Lease or the terms thereof, unless such actions are
exercised for a commercially reasonable purpose in arms-length transactions for
market rate terms.
(d) Borrower (i) shall observe and perform all the
material obligations imposed upon the lessor, grantor or licensor, as
applicable, under the Leases and shall not do or permit to be done anything to
impair the value of the Leases as security for the Debt; (ii) shall promptly
send copies to Lender of all notices of default which Borrower shall send or
receive thereunder; (iii) shall enforce all the material terms, covenants and
conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the lessee, grantee or
licensee, as applicable, thereunder to be observed or performed, short of
termination thereof (unless by reason of default thereunder); (iv) shall not
collect any of the Rents (other than estimated payments of reimbursable expenses
paid by tenants pursuant to their Leases) more than one (1) month in advance;
(v) shall not execute any other assignment of the lessor's interest in the
Leases or the Rents; (vi) shall, upon request of Lender, request and use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Lender tenant estoppel
certificates from each commercial tenant at the Trust Property in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, provided that Borrower shall not be
required to deliver such certificates
-30-
more frequently than two (2) times in any calendar year; and (vii) shall execute
and deliver at the request of Lender all such further assurances, confirmations
and assignments in connection with the Trust Property as Lender shall from time
to time reasonably require.
(e) All security deposits of tenants, whether held in
cash or any other form, shall not be commingled with any other funds of Borrower
and, if cash, shall be deposited by Borrower at such commercial or savings bank
or banks, or otherwise held in compliance with applicable law, as may be
reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Any bond or other instrument which Borrower
is permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable
legal requirements shall be maintained in full force and effect in the full
amount of such deposits unless replaced by cash deposits as hereinabove
described, shall (if issued after the date hereof) be fully assignable to Lender
and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable legal requirements and
otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall, upon request,
provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of Borrower's
compliance with the foregoing. Following the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, Borrower shall, upon Lender's request, if
permitted by any applicable legal requirements, rum over to Lender the security
deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) with respect to all or
any portion of the Trust Property, to be held by Lender subject to the terms of
the Leases.
9. MAINTENANCE AND USE OF TRUST PROPERTY. Borrower shall
cause the Trust Property to be maintained in a good and safe condition and
repair. The Improvements and the Equipment shall not be removed, demolished or
materially altered without the consent of Lender except for (a) tenant
improvements permitted to be made without the consent of Lender pursuant to the
express terms of any Lease approved or deemed approved by Lender pursuant to
paragraph 8 hereof, (b) normal replacement of the Equipment and (c) work
required to be made by reason of the occurrence of an emergency (i.e., an
unexpected event which threatens imminent harm to persons or the Trust Property)
and with respect to which it would be impracticable, under the circumstances, to
obtain Lender's prior consent thereto, provided that Borrower shall notify
Lender as promptly as practicable with respect to any such emergency work
performed by Borrower. Borrower shall promptly comply in all material respects
with all laws, orders and ordinances affecting Borrower and the Trust Property
(including, without limitation, Prescribed Laws), or the use thereof; provided,
however, that after prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own
expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and
conducted in good faith and with due diligence, such law, order and/or
ordinance, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii) such proceeding shall not be prohibited by the provisions of any other
instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default
thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with all
applicable statutes, laws and ordinances; (iii) neither the Trust Property nor
any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited,
terminated, cancelled or lost; (iv) Borrower shall promptly upon final
determination thereof comply with such law, order and/or ordinance and pay all
costs, interest and penalties which may be payable in connection therewith; and
(v) such proceeding shall suspend the requirement of Borrower to comply with
such law, order and/or ordinance. Borrower shall not initiate, join in,
acquiesce in, or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant,
zoning law or other public or private restriction, limiting or defining the uses
which may be made of the Trust Property or any part thereof. If under applicable
zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Trust Property is or
shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit such
nonconforming use to be
-31-
discontinued or abandoned without the express written consent of Lender.
Borrower shall not (i) change the use of the Trust Property, (ii) permit or
suffer to occur any waste on or to the Trust Property or to any portion thereof
or (iii) take any steps whatsoever to convert the Trust Property, or any portion
thereof, to a condominium or cooperative form of management, other than in
accordance with paragraph 10(i) hereof. Borrower will not install or permit to
be installed on the Premises any underground storage tank.
10. TRANSFER OR ENCUMBRANCE OF THE TRUST PROPERTY.
(a) Borrower acknowledges that Lender has examined and
relied on the credit worthiness and experience of Borrower in owning and
operating properties such as the Trust Property in agreeing to make the Loans,
and that Lender will continue to rely on Borrower's ownership of the Trust
Property as a means of maintaining the value of the Trust Property as security
for repayment of the Debt. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has a valid
interest in maintaining the value of the Trust Property so as to ensure that,
should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt, Lender can recover the
Debt by a sale of the Trust Property. For purposes of this paragraph 10, an
"AFFILIATED MANAGER" shall mean any managing agent of the Trust Property (other
than Xxxxxxx Services, Inc.) in which Borrower or the OP or any other guarantor
of the Debt (the OP or any other such guarantor, "GUARANTOR") has, directly or
indirectly, any legal, beneficial or economic interest; a "RESTRICTED PARTY"
shall mean Borrower, the Guarantor, or any Affiliated Manager or any
shareholder, partner, member or non-member manager, or any direct or indirect
legal or beneficial owner, of Borrower, the Guarantor, or any Affiliated Manager
(other than Xxxxxxx Properties, Inc. (the "REIT" ), any Permitted Institutional
Transferee (as hereinafter defined) or any Person owning a direct or indirect
interest in the REIT, the OP or any Permitted Institutional Transferee); and a
"SALE OR PLEDGE" shall mean a voluntary or involuntary sale, conveyance,
transfer or pledge of a legal or beneficial interest.
(b) Except as expressly permitted pursuant to paragraph
10(h) hereof, Borrower shall not sell, convey, mortgage, grant, bargain,
encumber, pledge, assign, grant options with respect to, or otherwise transfer
or dispose of (directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by
operation of law or otherwise, and whether or not for consideration or of
record) the Trust Property or any part thereof or any legal or beneficial
interest therein or permit a Sale or Pledge of an interest in any Restricted
Party (collectively a "TRANSFER"), other than pursuant to Leases of space in the
Improvements to tenants in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 8,
without the prior written consent of Lender.
(c) A Transfer shall include, but not be limited to, (i)
an installment sales agreement wherein Borrower agrees to sell the Trust
Property or any part thereof for a price to be paid in installments; (ii) an
agreement by Borrower leasing all or a substantial part of the Trust Property
for other than actual occupancy by a space tenant thereunder or a sale,
assignment or other transfer of, or the grant of a security interest in,
Borrower's right, title and interest in and to any Leases or any Rents; (iii) if
a Restricted Party is a corporation, any merger, consolidation or Sale or Pledge
of such corporation's stock or the creation or issuance of new stock such that
more than ten percent (10%) of such corporation's stock shall be vested in a
party or parties who are not stockholders as of the date hereof; (iv) if a
Restricted Party is a limited or general partnership or joint venture, any
merger or consolidation of such Restricted Party or the change,
-32-
removal, resignation or addition of a general partner thereof or the Sale or
Pledge of the partnership interest of any general partner of such Restricted
Party or any profits or proceeds relating to such partnership interest, or the
Sale or Pledge of limited partnership interests of such Restricted Party or any
profits or proceeds relating to such limited partnership interests or the
creation or issuance of new limited partnership interests of such Restricted
Party; (v) if a Restricted Party is a limited liability company, any merger or
consolidation of such Restricted Party or the change, removal, resignation or
addition of a managing member or non-member manager (or if no managing member,
any member) of such Restricted Party or the Sale or Pledge of the membership
interest of a managing member (or if no managing member, any member) of such
Restricted Party or any profits or proceeds relating to such membership
interest, or the Sale or Pledge of non-managing membership interests of such
Restricted Party or the creation or issuance of new non-managing membership
interests of such Restricted Party such that more than ten percent (10%) of such
limited liability company's non-managing membership interest shall be vested in
a party or parties who are not members as of the date hereof; (vi) if a
Restricted Party is a trust or nominee trust, any merger, consolidation or the
Sale or Pledge of the legal or beneficial interest in a Restricted Party or the
creation or issuance of new legal or beneficial interests; or (vii) the removal
or the resignation of the managing agent (including, without limitation, an
Affiliated Manager) without Lender's consent other than in accordance with
paragraph 59.
(d) Lender shall not be required to demonstrate any
actual impairment of its security or any increased risk of default hereunder in
order to declare the Debt immediately due and payable upon Borrower's sale,
conveyance, alienation, mortgage, encumbrance, pledge or transfer of the Trust
Property in violation of this paragraph 10 without Lender's consent. This
provision shall apply to every sale, conveyance, alienation, mortgage,
encumbrance, pledge or transfer of the Trust Property regardless of whether
voluntary or not, or whether or not Lender has consented to any previous sale,
conveyance, alienation, mortgage, encumbrance, pledge or transfer of the Trust
Property.
(e) Lender's consent to one sale, conveyance, alienation,
mortgage, encumbrance, pledge or transfer of the Trust Property shall not be

public right-of-way abutting the Trust Property, and all such utilities are
connected so as to serve the Trust Property without passing over other property.

benefit of the Trust Property.

the Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state any material fact known to Borrower or its Affiliates necessary to make
statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There is no fact
presently known to the Borrower which has not been disclosed which materially
adversely affects, nor as far as the Borrower can foresee, might materially
adversely affect the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise)
of Borrower.

disclosed in the engineering reports obtained and submitted to Lender, the Trust
Property has not been damaged by fire, water, wind or other cause of loss which
has not been fully restored in all material respects.

general partner or member of Borrower, nor any Guarantor of the Loans is
currently (a) the subject of or a party to any completed or pending bankruptcy,
reorganization or insolvency proceeding; or (b) the subject of any judgment
unsatisfied of record or docketed in any court of the state in which the Trust
Property is located or in any other court located in the United States. The
Loans will not render the Borrower nor any general partner or member of Borrower
insolvent. As used herein, the term "insolvent" means that the sum total of all
of an entity's liabilities (whether secured or unsecured, contingent or fixed,
or liquidated or unliquidated) is in excess of the value of all such entity's
non-exempt assets, i.e., all of the assets of the entity that are available to
satisfy claims of creditors.

-43-
the purposes for which it is currently being operated, nor is any proceeding
pending, threatened or known to be contemplated for the partial or total
condemnation or taking of the Trust Property.

improvements and other work performed in the ordinary course of business with
respect to which any applicable payments are not more than 60 days past due, all
parties furnishing labor and materials for which payment is due and payable as
of the date hereof have been paid in full and, except for such liens or claims
insured against by the policy of title insurance to be issued in connection with
the Loans, there are no mechanics', laborers' or materialmens' liens or claims
outstanding for work, labor or materials affecting the Trust Property, whether
prior to, equal with or subordinate to the lien of the Deed of Trust.
(dd) No Purchase Options. No tenant, person, party, firm,
corporation or other entity has an option to purchase the Trust Property, any
portion thereof or any interest therein other than options, rights of first
refusal and similar rights to lease space in the Improvements granted to a
tenant pursuant to its respective Lease or in another writing otherwise
delivered to Lender and other than rights of first refusal contained in
operating agreements of members of Borrower in favor of members of the members
of Borrower in the event of a sale of the Trust Property by Borrower.

Leases other than the Leases described in the rent roll delivered to Lender in
connection with this Deed of Trust, together with the schedules and the exhibits
attached to such rent roll (collectively, the "RENT ROLL") and any existing
subleases thereunder. No person has any possessory interest in the Trust
Property or right to occupy the same except under and pursuant to the provisions
of the Leases (and any existing subleases thereunder). As of the date hereof (i)
the Borrower is the owner and holder of the landlord's interest under each
Lease; (ii) there are no prior assignments of the landlord's interest in any
Lease or any portion of Rents which are presently outstanding and have priority

13. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES AND NO DEFAULT AFFIDAVITS.
After request by Lender, Borrower shall within ten (10) days furnish Lender with
a statement, duly acknowledged and certified, setting forth (i) the amount of
the original principal amount of the Note, (ii) the unpaid principal amount of
the Note, (iii) the rate of interest of the Note, (iv) the date installments of
interest and/or principal were last paid, (v) any known offsets or defenses to
the payment of the Debt, if any, (vi) that the Note, this Deed of Trust and the
other Loan Documents are valid, legal and binding obligations and have not been
modified or if modified, giving particulars of such modification; and (vii)
reaffirming all representations and warranties of Borrower set forth herein and
in the other Loan Documents as of the date requested by Lender or, to the extent
of any changes to any such representations and warranties, so stating such
changes.
14. Controlling Agreement. It is expressly stipulated and
agreed to be the intent of Borrower, and Lender at all times to comply with
applicable state law or applicable
-51-
United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for,
charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state
law) and that this paragraph 14 (and the similar paragraph contained in the
Note) shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Deed of Trust and
the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever
judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the
Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged,
taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Debt, or if Lender's exercise
of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Note, or if any prepayment by
Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that
permitted by applicable law, then it is Borrower's and Lender's express intent
that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the
principal balance of the Note and all other Debt without any resulting
prepayment penalty or premium (or, if the Note and all other Debt have been or
would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the
Note and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts
thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity
of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law,
but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for
hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the
use, forbearance, or detention of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the
full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of
interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from
time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is
outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any
of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the
maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration
or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
15. CHANGES IN LAWS REGARDING TAXATION. If any law is
enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Deed of Trust which deducts
the Debt from the value of the Trust Property for the purpose of taxation or
which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Debt or Lender's
interest in the Trust Property, Borrower will pay such tax, with interest and
penalties thereon, if any. In the event Lender is advised by counsel chosen by
it that the payment of such tax or interest and penalties by Borrower would be
unlawful or taxable to Lender or unenforceable or provide the basis for a
defense of usury, then in any such event, Lender shall have the option, by
written notice of not less than one hundred twenty (120) days, to declare the
Debt immediately due and payable without any prepayment consideration except
that if an Event of Default has occurred, then the Borrower shall pay to Lender
an additional amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium (as defined in the
Note).
16. No CREDITS ON ACCOUNT OF THE DEBT. Borrower will not
claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Debt
for any part of the Taxes or Other Charges assessed against the Trust Property,
or any part thereof, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from
the assessed value of the Trust Property, or any part thereof, for real estate
tax purposes by reason of this Deed of Trust or the Debt. In the event such
claim, credit or deduction shall be required by law, Lender shall have the
option, by written notice of not less than one hundred twenty (120) days, to
declare the Debt immediately due and payable without any prepayment
consideration except that if an Event of Default has occurred, then the Borrower
shall pay to Lender an additional amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium.
-52-
17. DOCUMENTARY STAMPS. If at any time the United States
of America, any State thereof or any subdivision of any such State shall require
revenue or other stamps to be affixed to the Note or this Deed of Trust, or
impose any other tax or charge on the same, Borrower will pay for the same, with
interest and penalties thereon, if any.
18. BOOKS AND RECORDS.
(a) The financial statements heretofore furnished to
Lender are, as of the dates specified therein, complete and correct in all
material respects and fairly present in all material respects the financial
condition of the Borrower and any other persons or entities that are the subject

accepted accounting principles. Since the date of such financial statements,
there has been no materially adverse change in the financial condition,
operation or business of Borrower from that set forth in said financial
statements.
(b) Borrower will maintain full and accurate books of
accounts and other records reflecting the results of the operations of the Trust

operating statements prepared for each calendar month during each such calendar
quarter, noting Net Operating Income, Gross Income from Operations, and

position and results of operation of the Trust Property during such calendar
month, all in form satisfactory to Lender; (iii) a property balance sheet for
each such calendar quarter; (iv) a comparison of the budgeted income and
expenses and the actual income and expenses for year to date together with a
detailed explanation of any variances of five percent (5%) or more between
budgeted and actual amounts for such year to date period; and (v) a calculation
reflecting the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as hereinafter defined) as of the
last day of each such calendar quarter. Until a Securitization has occurred,
Borrower shall furnish monthly each of the items listed in the immediately
preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the end of such month. Within
one hundred twenty (120) days following the end of each calendar year (provided,
however, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to provide Lender with any unaudited annual statements prior to such
date), Borrower shall furnish statements of its financial affairs and condition
including a balance sheet and a statement of profit and loss for the Borrower in
such detail as Lender may reasonably request, and setting forth the financial
condition and the income and expenses for the Trust Property for the immediately
preceding calendar year, which statements shall be prepared by Borrower.
Borrower's annual financial statements shall include (x) a list of the tenants,
if any, occupying more than twenty (20%) percent of the total floor area of the
Improvements, and (y) a breakdown showing the year in which each Lease then in
effect expires and the percentage of total floor area of the Improvements and
the percentage of base rent with respect to which Leases shall expire in each
such year, each such percentage to be expressed on both a per year and a
cumulative basis. Borrower's annual financial statements shall be accompanied by
a certificate
-53-
executed by a financial officer of Borrower or the REIT, as applicable, stating
that each such annual financial statement presents fairly the financial
condition of the Trust Property being reported upon and shall be audited by a
"Big Four" accounting firm or other independent certified public accountant
reasonably acceptable to Lender, which audited financial statements may be in
the form of schedules to the audited consolidated financial statements of the
REIT. Each such annual financial statement shall be prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied or the method used
in connection with the financial statements delivered to Lender in connection
with the closing of the Loans. At any time and from time to time Borrower shall
deliver to Lender or its agents such other financial data as Lender or its
agents shall reasonably request with respect to the ownership, maintenance, use
and operation of the Trust Property.
(c) For the purposes of this Deed of Trust, the term
"DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO" shall mean a ratio for the applicable period in
which: (A) the numerator is the Net Operating Income (excluding interest on
credit accounts) for such period as set forth in the statements required
hereunder and (B) the denominator is the aggregate amount of principal and
interest due and payable for such period under the Note.
19. PERFORMANCE OF OTHER AGREEMENTS. Borrower shall
observe and perform each and every material term to be observed or performed by
Borrower pursuant to the terms of any agreement or recorded instrument affecting

all and every such further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, assignments,
notices of assignment, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements or

time, require, for the better assuring, conveying, assigning, transferring, and
confirming unto Lender the property and rights hereby deeded, mortgaged, given,
granted, bargained, sold, alienated, enfeoffed, conveyed, confirmed, pledged,
assigned and hypothecated or intended now or hereafter so to be, or which
Borrower may be or may hereafter become bound to convey or assign to Lender, or
for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of
this Deed of Trust or for filing, registering or recording this Deed of Trust or
for facilitating the sale of the Loans and the Loan Documents as described in

hereby authorizes Lender to execute in the name of Borrower or without the
signature of Borrower to the extent Lender may lawfully do so, one or more
financing statements, chattel mortgages or other instruments, to evidence more
effectively the security interest of Lender in the Trust Property. Upon
foreclosure, the appointment of a receiver or any other relevant action,
Borrower will, at the cost of Borrower and without expense to Lender, cooperate
fully and completely to effect the assignment or transfer of any license,
permit, agreement or any other right necessary or useful to the operation of or
the Trust Property. Borrower grants to Lender and Trustee upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default and prior to the acceptance of a cure thereof by Lender an
irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest for the purpose of
exercising and perfecting any and all rights and remedies available to Lender
and Trustee at law and in equity, including, without limitation, such rights and
remedies available to Lender and Trustee pursuant to this paragraph.

(e) if any representation or warranty of Borrower, or of
any Guarantor, made herein or in any other Loan Document or in any certificate,
report, financial statement or other instrument or document furnished to Lender
in connection with the Loans shall have been false or misleading in any material
respect when made, provided that if such misrepresentation was

of such lien (except a lien for local real estate taxes and assessments or
special taxes not then due and payable);
(j) if Borrower fails to cure properly any violations of
laws or ordinances affecting or which may be interpreted to affect the Trust
Property within thirty (30) days after Borrower first receives notice of any
such violations; provided, however, that if such violation is reasonably
susceptible of cure, but not within such thirty (30) day period and the
applicable law or ordinance permits such longer period within which to cure such
violation, then Borrower shall be permitted up to an additional sixty (60) days
to cure such violation provided that Borrower diligently and continuously
pursues such cure;
(k) except as permitted in this Deed of Trust, the
alteration, improvement, demolition or removal of any of the Improvements

period, then Borrower may be permitted up to an additional sixty (60) days to

subsequent to the closing of the Loans, is or shall become untrue in any
respect; or
(q) if Borrower fails to comply with the covenants as to
Prescribed Laws set forth in paragraph 9 hereof.
24. LATE PAYMENT CHARGE. If any portion of the Debt is
not paid on or before the date on which such payment is due after the expiration
of any applicable grace period, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an
amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such due and unpaid portion
of the Debt or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law in order to defray
a portion of the expenses incurred by Lender in handling and processing such
delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such
delinquent payment, and such amount shall be secured by this Deed of Trust.
25. RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULTS. Upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default and prior to the acceptance of a cure thereof by Lender or if
Borrower fails to make any payment (including, without limitation, any required
payments for taxes, insurance or to discharge any liens with respect to the
Property) or to do any act as herein provided, Lender may, but without any
obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without
releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make or do the same in such
manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security
hereof. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Trust Property for such purposes
or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest
in the Trust Property or to foreclose this Deed of Trust or collect the Debt,
and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements to the extent permitted by law), with interest at the Default Rate
(as defined in the Note) for the period after notice from Lender that such cost
or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall constitute a
portion of the Debt, shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand.
26. ADDITIONAL REMEDIES.
(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, subject
to the requirements and limitations of applicable law, Lender or Trustee may
take such action, without notice or
-57-
demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower
and in and to the Trust Property by Lender itself or through Trustee or
otherwise, including, without limitation, the following actions, each of which
maybe pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as

payable;

(iii) with or without entry, to the extent permitted and

without regard for the solvency of the Borrower, any Guarantor or of
any person, firm or other entity liable for the payment of the Debt;
(viii) enforce Lender's interest in the Leases and Rents and
enter into or upon the Trust Property, either personally or by its
agents, nominees or attorneys and dispossess Borrower and its agents
and servants therefrom, and thereupon Lender may (A) use, operate,
manage, control, insure, maintain, repair, restore and otherwise deal
with all and every part of the Trust Property and conduct the business
thereat; (B) complete any construction on the Trust Property in such
manner and form as Lender deems advisable; (C) make alterations,
additions, renewals, replacements and improvements to or on the Trust
Property; (D) exercise all rights and powers of Borrower with respect

including, without limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or
modify Leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, xxx for, collect
and receive all Rents; and (E) apply the receipts from the Trust
Property to the payment of the Debt, after deducting therefrom all
-58-

Property.
In the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less
than all of the Trust Property, this Deed of Trust shall continue as a lien on
the remaining portion of the Trust Property.
(b) The proceeds of any sale made under or by virtue of
this paragraph, together with any other sums which then may be held by Lender
under this Deed of Trust, whether under the provisions of this paragraph or
otherwise, shall be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such
priority and proportion as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper.
(c) Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, Lender
may adjourn from time to time any sale by it to be made under or by virtue of
this Deed of Trust by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale
or for such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any
applicable provision of law, Lender or Trustee, without further notice or
publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be
so adjourned.
(d) Upon the completion of any sale or sales pursuant
hereto, Lender, or an officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and
deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient
instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, conveying, assigning and
transferring all estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and
rights sold. Lender and Trustee are hereby irrevocably appointed the true and
lawful attorney of Borrower, in its name and stead, to make all necessary
conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Trust Property and
rights so sold and for that purpose Lender and Trustee may execute all necessary
instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and may substitute one or
more persons with like power, Borrower hereby ratifying and confirming all that
its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue
hereof. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, any sale or sales made
under or by virtue of this paragraph, whether made under the power of sale
herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or
decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right,
title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of
Borrower in and to the properties and rights
-59-
so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Borrower
and against any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part
thereof from, through or under Borrower.
(e) Upon any sale made under or by virtue of this
paragraph, whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by
virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and
sale, Lender may bid for and acquire the Trust Property or any part thereof and
in lieu of paying cash therefor may make settlement for the purchase price by
crediting upon the Debt the net sales price after deducting therefrom the
expenses of the sale and costs of the action and any other sums which Lender is
authorized to deduct under this Deed of Trust.
(f) Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, no
recovery of any judgment by Lender and no levy of an execution under any
judgment upon the Trust Property or upon any other property of Borrower shall
affect in any manner or to any extent the lien of this Deed of Trust upon the
Trust Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of
Lender hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Lender shall
continue unimpaired as before.
(g) Lender may terminate or rescind any proceeding or
other action brought in connection with its exercise of the remedies provided in
this paragraph at any time before the conclusion thereof, as determined in
Lender's sole discretion and without prejudice to Lender.
(h) Lender may resort to any remedies and the security
given by the Note, this Deed of Trust or the Loan Documents in whole or in part,
and in such portions and in such order as determined by Lender's sole
discretion. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, no such action shall
in any way be considered a waiver of any rights, benefits or remedies evidenced
or provided by the Note, this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents.
The failure of Lender or Trustee to exercise any right, remedy or option
provided in the Note, this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents
shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, remedy or option or of any covenant
or obligation secured by the Note, this Deed of Trust or the other Loan
Documents. No acceptance by Lender of any payment after the occurrence of any
Event of Default and no payment by Lender of any obligation for which Borrower
is liable hereunder shall be deemed to waive or cure any Event of Default with
respect to Borrower, or Borrower's liability to pay such obligation. Except as
may be prohibited by applicable law, no sale of all or any portion of the Trust
Property, no forbearance on the part of Lender or Trustee, and no extension of
time for the payment of the whole or any portion of the Debt or any other
indulgence given by Lender or Trustee to Borrower, shall operate to release or
in any manner affect the interest of Lender in the remaining Trust Property or
the liability of Borrower to pay the Debt. No waiver by Lender or Trustee shall
be effective unless it is in writing and then only to the extent specifically
stated. All costs and expenses of Lender and Trustee in exercising the rights
and remedies under this paragraph 26 (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements to the extent permitted by law), shall be paid by Borrower
immediately upon notice from Lender or Trustee, with interest at the Default
Rate for the period after notice from Lender or Trustee and such costs and
expenses shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be secured by this
Deed of Trust.
-60-
(i) The interests and rights of Lender under the Note,
this Deed of Trust or in any of the other Loan Documents shall not be impaired
by any indulgence, including (i) any renewal, extension or modification which
Lender may grant with respect to any of the Debt, (ii) any surrender,
compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or substitution which Lender
may grant with respect to the Trust Property or any portion thereof; or (iii)
any release or indulgence granted to any maker, endorser, Guarantor or surety of
any of the Debt.
27. RIGHT OF ENTRY. In addition to any other rights or
remedies granted under this Deed of Trust, Lender, Trustee and their agents,
during the Term, shall have the right upon reasonable notice to Borrower to
enter and inspect the Trust Property during normal business hours in a manner
which does not unreasonably interfere with tenants or occupants thereof. The
cost of such inspections or audits shall be borne by Borrower should Lender
determine that an Event of Default exists, including the cost of all follow up
or additional investigations or inquiries deemed reasonably necessary by Lender.
The cost of such inspections, if not paid for by Borrower promptly upon demand,
may be added to the principal balance of the sums due under the Note and this
Deed of Trust and shall bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate
if not paid within five (5) days after such demand.
28. SECURITY AGREEMENT.
(a) This Deed of Trust is both a real property mortgage
and a "security agreement" within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code.
The Trust Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights
and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Borrower in the
Trust Property. Borrower by executing and delivering this Deed of Trust has
granted and hereby grants to Lender and Trustee, as security for the Debt, a
security interest in the Trust Property to the full extent that the Trust
Property may be subject to the Uniform Commercial Code (said portion of the
Trust Property so subject to the Uniform Commercial Code being called in this
paragraph the "COLLATERAL"). This Deed of Trust shall also constitute a
"fixture filing" for the purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code. As such, this
Deed of Trust covers all items of the Collateral that are or are to become
fixtures. Information concerning the security interest herein granted may be
obtained from the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth in the first
paragraph of this Deed of Trust.
(b) If an Event of Default shall occur, Lender and
Trustee, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall
have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and
remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial
Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to
take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other
measures as Lender or Trustee may deem necessary for the care, protection and
preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Lender or Trustee,
Borrower shall at its expense assemble the Collateral and make it available to
Lender and Trustee at a convenient place acceptable to Lender. Borrower shall
pay to Lender and Trustee on demand any and all expenses, including attorneys'
fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by Lender and Trustee in protecting the
interest in the Collateral and in enforcing the rights hereunder with respect to
the Collateral. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by
Lender and Trustee with respect to the Collateral sent to Borrower in accordance
with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such action,
shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Borrower. The
-61-
proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may be
applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as
Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper. In the event of any change in
name, identity or structure of Borrower, Borrower shall notify Lender and
Trustee thereof and promptly after request shall execute (if necessary), file
and record such Uniform Commercial Code forms as are necessary to maintain the
priority of Lender's lien upon and security interest in the Collateral, and
shall pay all expenses and fees in connection with the filing and recording
thereof. If Lender shall require the filing or recording of additional Uniform
Commercial Code forms or continuation statements, Borrower shall, promptly after
request, execute (if necessary), file and record such Uniform Commercial Code
forms or continuation statements as Lender shall deem necessary, and shall pay
all expenses and fees in connection with the filing and recording thereof, it
being understood and agreed, however, that no such additional documents shall
increase Borrower's obligations under the Note, this Deed of Trust and any of
the other Loan Documents. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its
attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to file with the appropriate public
office on its behalf any financing or other statements signed only by Lender, as
secured party, in connection with the Collateral covered by this Deed of Trust.
29. ACTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS. Lender or Trustee has the
right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to
the Trust Property and to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on
behalf of Borrower, which Lender, in its sole discretion, decides should be
brought to protect their interest in the Trust Property. Lender shall, at its
option, be subrogated to the lien of any deed of trust or other security
instrument discharged in whole or in part by the Debt, and any such subrogation
rights shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Debt.
30. WAIVER OF SETOFF AND COUNTERCLAIM. All amounts due
under this Deed of Trust, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall be payable
without setoff, counterclaim or any deduction whatsoever. Borrower hereby waives
the right to assert a setoff, counterclaim (other than a mandatory or compulsory
counterclaim) or deduction in any action or proceeding in which Lender or
Trustee is a participant, or arising out of or in any way connected with this
Deed of Trust, the Note, any of the other Loan Documents, or the Debt.
31. CONTEST OF CERTAIN CLAIMS. Notwithstanding the
provisions of paragraphs 5 and 23 hereof, Borrower shall not be in default for
failure to pay or discharge Taxes, Other Charges or mechanic's or materialman's
lien asserted against the Trust Property if, and so long as, (a) Borrower shall
have notified Lender of same within five (5) Business Days of obtaining
knowledge thereof; (b) Borrower shall diligently and in good faith contest the
same by appropriate legal proceedings which shall operate to prevent the
enforcement or collection of the same and the sale of the Trust Property or any
part thereof, to satisfy the same; (c) Borrower shall have furnished to Lender a
cash deposit (which may consist in whole or in part of funds contained in an
existing reserve previously established by Borrower in connection with the Loans
for the specific purpose of paying the items being contested), or an indemnity
bond satisfactory to Lender with a surety reasonably satisfactory to Lender, in
an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the amount of the
Taxes, Other Charges or mechanic's or materialman's lien claim, plus a
reasonable additional sum to pay all costs, interest and penalties that may be
imposed or incurred in connection therewith, to assure payment of the matters
under contest and to prevent any sale or forfeiture of the Trust Property or any
part thereof;
-62-
(d) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay the amount of
any such Taxes, Other Charges or claim so determined, together with all costs,
interest and penalties which may be payable in connection therewith; (e) the
failure to pay the Taxes, Other Charges or mechanic's or materialman's lien
claim does not constitute a default under any other deed of trust, mortgage or
security interest covering or affecting any part of the Trust Property; and (f)
notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall immediately upon request of Lender
pay (and if Borrower shall fail so to do, Lender may, but shall not be required
to, pay or cause to be discharged or bonded against) any such Taxes, Other
Charges or claim notwithstanding such contest, if in the opinion of Lender, the
Trust Property or any part thereof or interest therein may be in danger of being
sold, forfeited, foreclosed, terminated, cancelled or lost. Lender may pay over
any such cash deposit or part thereof to the claimant entitled thereto at any
time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the entitlement of such
claimant is established.
32. RECOVERY OF SUMS REQUIRED TO BE PAID. Lender shall
have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which
constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due, without regard to whether
or not the balance of the Debt shall be due, and without prejudice to the right
of Lender or Trustee thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other
action, for a default or defaults by Borrower existing at the time such earlier
action was commenced.
33. MARSHALLING AND OTHER MATTERS. Borrower hereby
waives, to the extent permitted by law, the benefit of all appraisement,
valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement and redemption laws now or hereafter
in force and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale hereunder of the
Trust Property or any part thereof or any interest therein. Further, Borrower
hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption from sale under any
order or decree of foreclosure of this Deed of Trust on behalf of Borrower, and
on behalf of each and every person acquiring any interest in or title to the
Trust Property subsequent to the date of this Deed of Trust and on behalf of all
persons to the extent permitted by applicable law.
34. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Borrower hereby represents and
warrants to Lender that, to Borrower's knowledge, except as disclosed in the
report, dated May 23, 2003 prepared by Certified Environments, Inc. (the "PHASE
I REPORT") and delivered to Lender in connection with the Loans: (a) the Trust
Property is not in violation of any local, state, federal or other governmental
authority, statute, ordinance, code, order, decree, law, rule or regulation
pertaining to or imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning
environmental regulation, contamination or clean-up including, without
limitation, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability
Act, as amended ("CERCLA"), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as
amended ("RCRA"), the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-know Act of
1986, as amended, the Hazardous Substances Transportation Act, as amended, the
Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended, the Clean Water Act, as amended, the Clean
Air Act, as amended, the Toxic Substance Control Act, as amended, the Safe
Drinking Water Act, as amended, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, as
amended, any state super-lien and environmental clean-up statutes and all rules
and regulations adopted in respect to the foregoing laws whether presently in
force or coming into being and/or effectiveness hereafter (collectively,
"ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS"); (b) the Trust Property is not subject to any private or
governmental lien or judicial or administrative notice or action or inquiry,
investigation or claim relating to hazardous and/or toxic, dangerous and/or
regulated, substances, wastes, materials, raw
-63-
materials which include hazardous constituents, pollutants or contaminants
including without limitation, petroleum, tremolite, anthlophylie, actinolite or
polychlorinated biphenyls and any other substances or materials which are
included under or regulated by Environmental Laws or which are considered by
scientific opinion to be otherwise dangerous in terms of the health, safety and
welfare of humans (collectively, "HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES"); (c) no Hazardous
Substances are or have been (including the period prior to Borrower's
acquisition of the Trust Property) discharged, generated, treated, disposed of
or stored on, incorporated in, or removed or transported from the Trust Property
other than in compliance with all Environmental Laws; (d) no Hazardous
Substances are present in, on or under any nearby real property which could
migrate to or otherwise affect the Trust Property and which would reasonably be
likely to result in a requirement under applicable Environmental Laws to
remediate the Trust Property; and (e) no underground storage tanks exist on any
of the Trust Property. So long as Borrower owns or is in possession of the Trust
Property, Borrower (i) shall keep or cause the Trust Property to be kept free
from Hazardous Substances except those in compliance with all Environmental
Law.s or any permits issued with respect thereto, (ii) shall promptly notify
Lender if Borrower shall become aware of any Hazardous Substances on the Trust
Property and/or if Borrower shall become aware that the Trust Property is in
violation of any Environmental Laws and/or if Borrower shall become aware of any
condition on the Trust Property which shall pose a threat to the health, safety
or welfare of humans, and (iii) shall remove or remediate such Hazardous
Substances and/or cure such violations and/or remove or remediate such threats,
as applicable, as required by law (or as shall be reasonably required by Lender
in the case of removal or remediation which is not required by law, but in
response to the opinion of a licensed hydrogeologist, licensed environmental
engineer or other qualified consultant engaged by Lender ("LENDER'S CONSULTANT")
provided that such removal, remediation or cure is reasonably necessary to
eliminate imminent danger to the health, safety or welfare of humans and would
customarily be performed by prudent owners of properties similar to the Trust
Property in similar circumstances), promptly after Borrower becomes aware of
same, at Borrower's sole expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this paragraph, the Borrower, Manager and/or tenants on the Trust Property may
use and store ordinary amounts of Hazardous Substances at the Trust Property if
such use or storage is in connection with business supplies used by Borrower, a
tenant in accordance with the terms of its Lease or by Manager pursuant to the
Management Agreement or is in connection with the ordinary cleaning and
maintenance of the Trust Property so long as such use and storage (A) does not
violate any applicable Environmental Laws and (B) is not the subject of any
specific recommendations in the Phase I Report that would prohibit such use or
storage. Nothing herein shall prevent Borrower from recovering such expenses
from any other party that may be liable for such removal or cure. The
obligations and liabilities of Borrower under this paragraph 34 shall survive
any termination, satisfaction, or assignment of this Deed of Trust and the
exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies hereunder, including,
without limitation, the acquisition of the Trust Property by foreclosure or a
conveyance in lieu of foreclosure.
35. ASBESTOS. Borrower represents and warrants that to
Borrower's knowledge no asbestos or any substance or material containing
asbestos ("ASBESTOS") is located on the Trust Property except as may have been
disclosed in the Phase I Report delivered to Lender in connection with the
Loans. Borrower shall not install in the Trust Property, nor permit to be
installed in the Trust Property, Asbestos and shall remove any Asbestos promptly
upon discovery to the satisfaction of Lender, at Borrower's sole expense.
Borrower shall in all
-64-
instances comply with, and ensure compliance by all occupants of the Trust
Property with, all applicable federal, state and local laws, ordinances, rules
and regulations with respect to Asbestos, and shall keep the Trust Property free
and clear of any liens imposed pursuant to such laws, ordinances, rules or
regulations. In the event that Borrower receives any notice or advice from any
governmental agency or any source whatsoever with respect to Asbestos on,
affecting or installed on the Trust Property, Borrower shall promptly notify
Lender. The obligations and liabilities of Borrower under this paragraph 35
shall survive any termination, satisfaction, or assignment of this Deed of Trust
and the exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies hereunder, including
but not limited to, the acquisition of the Trust Property by foreclosure or a

respect to the presence of any Hazardous Substance or Asbestos on, under, from
or about the Trust Property, (b) all claims made or threatened by any third
party against Borrower or the Trust Property relating to any loss or injury
resulting from any Hazardous Substance or Asbestos, and (c) Borrower's discovery
of any occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity
of the Trust Property that could reasonably be expected to cause the Trust
Property to be subject to any investigation or cleanup pursuant to any
Environmental Law. Borrower shall permit Lender to join and participate in, as a
party if it so elects, any legal proceedings or actions initiated with respect
to the Trust Property in connection with any actual or alleged violation of
Environmental Law or the presence of Hazardous Substance at the Trust Property,
and Borrower shall pay all reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred
by Lender in connection therewith. Upon Lender's request, at any time and from
time to time while this Deed of Trust is in effect but not more frequently than
once per calendar year, unless Lender has determined (in the exercise of its
good faith judgment) that reasonable cause exists for the performance of an
environmental inspection or audit of the Trust Property, Borrower shall provide
at Borrower's sole expense, (i) an inspection or audit of the Trust Property
prepared by a licensed hydrogeologist or licensed environmental engineer
approved by Lender indicating the presence or absence of Hazardous Substances
on, in or near the Trust Property, and (ii) an inspection or audit of the Trust
Property prepared by a duly qualified engineering or consulting firm approved by
Lender, indicating the presence or absence of Asbestos on the Trust Property;
provided, however, any such inspection or audit requested by Lender, during the
Term, in excess of one (1) inspection during each five (5) year period
commencing upon the date hereof, shall be performed at Lender's expense unless
an Event of Default exists or Lender has determined (in the exercise of its good
faith and judgment) that reasonable cause exists for the performance of an
environmental inspection or audit. If Borrower fails to provide such inspection
or audit within sixty (60) days after such request Lender may order same, and
Borrower hereby grants to Lender and its employees and agents access to the
Trust Property and a license to undertake such inspection or audit upon
reasonable prior notice to Borrower and in a manner that does not unreasonably
interfere with tenants or occupants thereof. The cost of such inspection or
audit obtained by Lender upon Borrower's failure to do so shall bear interest
from the date such costs are incurred by Lender until paid at the Default Rate
and shall be due and payable by Borrower to Lender within ten (10) days after
demand, and if not so paid, may be added to the Debt. In the event that any
environmental site assessment report prepared in connection with such inspection
or audit recommends that an operations and maintenance plan be implemented for
Asbestos or any Hazardous Substance, Borrower shall cause such operations and
maintenance plan to be prepared
-65-
and implemented at Borrower's expense upon request of Lender. In the event that
any investigation, site monitoring, containment cleanup, removal, restoration,
or other work of any kind is reasonably necessary under an applicable
Environmental Law (the "REMEDIAL WORK"), Borrower shall promptly commence and
thereafter diligently prosecute to completion all such Remedial Work, provided
that in any event Borrower shall complete such Remedial Work within the time
required by applicable Environmental Law. All Remedial Work shall be performed
by contractors approved in advance by Lender, and under the supervision of a
consulting engineer approved by Lender. All costs and expenses of such Remedial
Work shall be paid by Borrower including, without limitation, Lender's
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred in connection with
monitoring or review of such Remedial Work. In the event Borrower shall fail to
timely commence, or cause to be commenced, or fail to diligently prosecute to
completion, such Remedial Work, Lender may, but shall not be required to, cause
such Remedial Work to be performed, and all costs and expenses thereof, or
incurred in connection therewith, shall bear interest from the date such costs
are incurred by Lender until paid at the Default Rate and shall be due and
payable by Borrower to Lender within ten (10) days after demand, and if not so
paid, may be added to the Debt.

applicable), all state and local laws and ordinances related to handicapped
access and all rules, regulations, and orders issued pursuant thereto including,
without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines
for Buildings and Facilities (collectively "ACCESS LAWS").
(b) Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein or in
any other document regarding Lender's approval of alterations of the Trust
Property, Borrower shall not alter the Trust Property in any manner which would
increase Borrower's responsibilities for compliance with the applicable Access
Laws without the prior written approval of Lender except for tenant improvements
constructed by Borrower or by any of its tenants that are otherwise permitted by
the terms of this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents. Lender may
condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of Access Law
compliance from an architect, engineer, or other person acceptable to Lender.
(c) Borrower agrees to give prompt notice to Lender of
the receipt by Borrower of any complaints related to violation of any Access
Laws and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate
to compliance with applicable Access Laws.

action, losses, fines, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,

claims, demands, damages, penalties, causes of action, losses, fines, costs or
expenses result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or illegal acts of
Lender or Lender's agents or from any Hazardous Substance or Asbestos introduced
onto the Trust Property by Lender or its agents or which are introduced onto the

Trust or deed in lieu thereof. Any amounts payable, to Lender or Trustee by
reason of the application of this paragraph shall be. secured by this Deed of
Trust and shall become immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at
the Default Rate from the date loss or damage is sustained by Lender or Trustee
until paid if not paid within five (5) days of demand therefor. The obligations
and liabilities of Borrower under this paragraph 38 shall survive any

independently, and in such order as Lender may determine.

Parties or any other Person in any such action or proceeding under or by reason

right of Lender to name any of the Borrower Parties, as a party defendant in any
action or suit for foreclosure and sale under this Deed of Trust; (iii) affect

affiliate thereof of (i) any insurance proceeds paid by reason of any loss,
damage or destruction to the Trust Property, (ii) any awards or other amounts
received in connection with the condemnation of all or a portion of the Trust
Property, (iii) any Rents following an Event of Default or (iv) any Rents paid
more than one month in advance;
(f) failure to pay charges for labor or materials or
taxes or other charges that can create liens superior to the lien of this Deed
of Trust on any portion of the Trust Property unless such taxes or other charges
are being contested in accordance herewith; and
(g) any security deposits collected by Borrower or any
affiliate thereof with respect to the Trust Property which are not delivered to
Lender upon a foreclosure of the Trust Property or action in lieu thereof,
except to the extent any such security deposits were applied in accordance with
the terms and conditions of any of the Leases prior to the occurrence of the
Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan
Documents (i) Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right which Lender
may have under Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the Debt secured by
this Deed of Trust or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure
all of the Debt owing to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (ii)
the Debt shall become fully recourse to Borrower (but not its members or other
direct or indirect constituent members or partners or any other Person) in the
event that: (A) the first full Monthly Payment Amount (as defined in the Note)
under the Note is not paid when due; (B) other than in connection with a default
under paragraph 12(a)(ii)(G) hereof, Borrower fails to maintain its status as a
Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity in accordance with the provisions of
this Deed of Trust and such failure results in the substantive consolidation of
Borrower with another Person; (C) except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the
Loan Documents, Borrower fails to obtain Lender's prior written consent to any
subordinate financing or other voluntary lien encumbering the Trust Property;
(D) except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents, Borrower fails
to obtain Lender's prior written consent to any assignment, transfer, or
conveyance of the Trust Property or any interest therein as and to the
-75-
extent required by this Deed of Trust; or (E) (1) a receiver (other than a
receiver appointed by Lender), liquidator or trustee of Borrower or Guarantor
shall be appointed which is not dismissed within ninety (90) days, or (2) if any
petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement pursuant to federal
bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, shall be filed by Borrower
or Guarantor, or (3) if Borrower or Guarantor files an answer consenting to, or
otherwise joining in, any involuntary petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or
arrangement pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state
law filed against it by-any other Person, or is found pursuant to a final,
unappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction to have solicited or
caused to be solicited creditors to file any involuntary petition for
bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or
any similar federal or state law against Borrower or Guarantor, or (4) if
Borrower or Guarantor are found, pursuant to a final unappealable order of a
court of competent jurisdiction, to have been in collusion with creditors that
initiate a bankruptcy action or proceeding against Borrower or Guarantor.
58. CASH MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT. On or before the date
hereof Borrower covenants and agrees to enter into one or more servicing account
agreements, lockbox servicing agreements and/or cash management agreements
acceptable to Lender between Borrower, Manager, Lender and, as applicable, one
or more certain financial institutions (together with any modification,
amendment, substitution or replacement thereof, hereinafter collectively
referred to as the "CASH MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT"). All Rents shall be applied as
set forth in the Cash Management Agreement and the escrows and reserves required
hereunder shall be funded as provided therein. The Borrower shall pay all costs
and expenses required under the Cash Management Agreement. Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums
then held pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement to the payment of the Debt
in any order in its sole discretion. Until expended or applied, amounts held
pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement shall constitute additional security
for the Debt.
59. MANAGEMENT OF THE TRUST PROPERTY.
(a) Borrower shall maintain, or cause to be maintained,
the Management Agreement in full force and effect and timely perform all of
Borrower's obligations thereunder and enforce performance of all obligations of
the Manager thereunder, and except as otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents,
not permit the termination or amendment of the Management Agreement unless the
prior written consent of Lender is first obtained, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Borrower shall cause the Manager
to enter into an assignment and subordination of the management agreement in
form satisfactory to Lender (the "SUBORDINATION OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT"). The
Subordination of Management Agreement shall assign and subordinate the Manager's
interests in the Trust Property and all fees and other rights of the Manager
pursuant to the Management Agreement to the rights of Lender. Upon an Event of
Default, Borrower shall, at Lender's request made at any time while such Event
of Default continues, terminate, or cause the termination of, the Management
Agreement. Except with respect to the transactions contemplated by paragraph 11
(jj) above, which transactions are hereby pre-approved by Lender, Borrower shall
not enter into any agreement relating to the management of the Trust Property
with any party without the express written consent of Lender (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld to the extent that such manager is an
affiliate of Borrower); provided, however, with respect to a new manager such
-76-
consent may also be conditioned upon Borrower delivering evidence (i) in writing
from the applicable Rating Agencies to the effect that such new manager and
management agreement will not result in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification
of the respective ratings then in effect for any Securities issued in connection
with a Securitization, and (ii) satisfactory to Lender (which shall include, at
the request of Lender, a legal non-consolidation opinion acceptable to Lender)
that the single purpose nature and bankruptcy remoteness of Borrower, its
shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, after the engagement of
the new manager are in accordance with the requirements of Rating Agencies. If
at any time Lender consents to the appointment of a new manager, such new
manager and Borrower shall, as a condition of Lender's consent, execute an
assignment and subordination of such management agreement in the form then used
by Lender.
(b) The Borrower, upon the request of Lender, shall
terminate the Manager, without penalty or fee, if at any time during the Loans
(a) the Manager shall become insolvent or a debtor in any bankruptcy or
insolvency proceeding, (b) there exists an Event of Default for which Lender has
not accepted a cure thereof or (c) the Maturity Date has occurred and the Loans
have not been repaid. At such time as the Manager may be removed pursuant to and
in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, a replacement
manager and management agreement acceptable to Lender and the applicable Rating
Agencies in their sole discretion shall assume management of the Property and
shall receive a property management fee not to exceed the then current market
rates.
60. SERVICER. At the option of Lender, the Loans may be
serviced by a servicer and/or trustee (collectively, the "SERVICER") selected by
Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under
this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a
servicing or other agreement (the "SERVICING AGREEMENT") between Lender and
Servicer. Borrower shall be responsible for any set-up fees or any other costs
and expenses relating to or arising under the Servicing Agreement; provided,
however, that such fees and expenses do not exceed one (1) basis point per
annum. Lender agrees that the Servicing Agreement shall require the Servicer to
act within the specified time periods set forth in the Loan Documents,
including, but not limited to, in providing consents or approvals as required
under the terms thereof.
61. COMPONENT NOTES. Lender, without in any way limiting
Lender's other rights hereunder, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have
the right, at no cost or expense to Borrower, at any time prior to or in
connection with a Securitization or a sale of the Loans or any portion thereof
or any interest therein, to require Borrower to execute and deliver replacement
"component" notes (including senior and junior notes), which notes may be paid
in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender, or a single note
replacing the existing "component" notes eliminating the "component" note
structure, or to coordinate the maturity dates of the Note, provided that (i)
the aggregate principal amount of such "component" notes or the principal
balance of such single note, as applicable, shall equal the outstanding
principal balance of the Loans (or applicable portion thereof) immediately prior
to the creation of such replacement "component" notes or such single note, as
applicable, (ii) the weighted average interest rate of all such replacement
"component" notes or such single note, as applicable, shall on the date created
equal the weighted average interest rate which was applicable to the Loans
immediately prior to the creation of such replacement "component" notes or such
single note, as applicable, (iii) the
-77-
debt service payments on all such replacement "component" notes or such single
note, as applicable, shall on the date created equal the debt service payments
which were due under the Loans immediately prior to the creation of such
replacement component notes or such single note, as applicable, (iv) the
maturity date, the amortization schedule and the other terms and provisions of
each of the replacement "component" notes or such single note, as applicable,
shall be identical in substance and substantially similar in form to the note
that such "component" notes or such single note, as applicable, replace and the
other Loan Documents, (v) under all circumstances, Note B (or any "component"
notes issued in substitution therefor) and either the BH Guaranty or the RFM
Guaranty (whichever is then in effect) shall be maintained separate from Note A
and as part of the Loans, and (vi) the original note that is replaced by such
component notes shall be delivered to Borrower. Borrower shall cooperate with
all reasonable requests of Lender in order to establish the "component" notes
and shall execute and deliver such documents in compliance with this paragraph
61 as shall reasonably be required by Lender and any Rating Agency in connection
therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and
satisfactory to any Rating Agency, including, without limitation, the severance
of security documents if requested. In the event Borrower fails to execute and
deliver such documents to Lender within ten (10) Business Days following notice
of such request by Lender, Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints
Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name
and stead to make and execute all documents reasonably necessary to effect such
transactions, Borrower ratifying all that such attorney shall do by virtue
thereof.
It shall be an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust, the
Note and the other Loan Documents if Borrower fails to comply with any of the
terms, covenants or conditions of this Section 61 after expiration often (10)
Business Days after notice thereof.
62. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) Any consent or approval by Lender in any single
instance shall not be deemed or construed to be Lender's consent or approval in
any like matter arising at a subsequent date, and the failure of Lender to
promptly exercise any right, power, remedy, consent or approval provided herein
or at law or in equity shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver of the
same nor shall Lender be estopped from exercising such right, power, remedy,
consent or approval at a later date. Any consent or approval requested of and
granted by Lender pursuant hereto shall be narrowly construed to be applicable
only to Borrower and the matter identified in such consent or approval and no
third party shall claim any benefit by reason thereof, and any such consent or
approval shall not be deemed to constitute Lender a venturer or partner with
Borrower nor shall privity of contract be presumed to have been established with
any such third party. If Lender deems it to be in its best interest to retain
assistance of persons, firms or corporations (including, without limitation,
attorneys, title insurance companies, appraisers, engineers and surveyors) with
respect to a request for consent or approval, Borrower shall reimburse Lender
for all costs reasonably incurred in connection with the employment of such
persons, firms or corporations.
(b) Borrower covenants and agrees that during the Term,
unless Lender shall have previously consented in writing, (a) Borrower will take
no action that would cause it to become an "employee benefit plan" as defined in
29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101, or "assets of a
-78-
governmental plan" subject to regulation under the state statutes, and (b)
Borrower will not sell, assign or transfer the Trust Property, or any portion
thereof or interest therein, to any transferee that does not execute and deliver
to Lender its written assumption of the obligations of this covenant. Borrower
further covenants and agrees to protect, defend, indemnify and hold Lender
harmless from and against all loss, cost, damage and expense (including without
limitation, all attorneys' fees and excise taxes, costs of correcting any
prohibited transaction or obtaining an appropriate exemption) that Lender may
incur as a result of Borrower's breach of this covenant. This covenant and
indemnity shall survive the extinguishment of the lien of this Deed of Trust by
foreclosure or action in lieu thereof; furthermore, the foregoing indemnity
shall supersede any limitations on Borrower's liability under any of the Loan
Documents.
(c) The Loan Documents contain the entire agreement
between Borrower and Lender relating to or connected with the Loans. Any other
agreements relating to or connected with the Loans not expressly set forth in
the Loan Documents are null and void and superseded in their entirety by the
provisions of the Loan Documents.
(d) Borrower hereby covenants and agrees not to commit,
or to knowingly permit or suffer to exist any act, omission or circumstance
affording any right of forfeiture. In furtherance thereof, Borrower hereby
indemnifies Lender and agrees to defend and hold Lender harmless from and
against any loss, damage or injury by reason of the breach of the covenants and
agreements or the representations and warranties set forth in this paragraph.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the filing of formal charges
or the commencement of proceedings which are not promptly dismissed against
Borrower or all or any part of the Trust Property under any federal or state law
for which forfeiture of the Trust Property or any part thereof or of any monies
paid in performance of Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents is a
likely result, shall, at the election of Lender, constitute an Event of Default
hereunder without notice or opportunity to cure.
(e) Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the
Loans, Borrower is relying solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering
into the Loans without relying in any manner on any statements, representations
or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Lender.
Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate
financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be
viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of the Borrower or its
Affiliates. Borrower acknowledges that it is represented by competent counsel
and has consulted counsel before executing the Loan Documents.
(f) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay Lender upon
receipt of written notice from Lender, all reasonable costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in
connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this
Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents; (ii) Borrower's performance of and
compliance with Borrower's respective agreements and covenants contained in this
Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or
complied with after the date hereof; (iii) Lender's performance and compliance
with all agreements and conditions contained in this Deed of Trust and the other
Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the date
hereof; (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any
consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Deed of Trust and
the other
-79-
Loan Documents; and (v) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title
insurance fees and expenses, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and
perfecting the lien in favor of Lender pursuant to this Deed of Trust and the
other Loan Documents.
PART II
STATE SPECIFIC PROVISIONS
63. PRINCIPLES OF CONSTRUCTION. In the event of any
inconsistencies between the terms and provisions of this Part II Deed of Trust
and Part I of this Deed of Trust, the terms and provisions of this Part II shall
govern and control.
64. ADDITIONAL REMEDIES PROVISIONS. Lender shall have the
following remedies under this Deed of Trust, in addition to any other remedies
stated in this Deed of Trust (all of which are cumulative and nonexclusive):
(a) Judicial Action. Bring an action in any court of
competent jurisdiction to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to obtain specific
performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein or in the other Loan
Documents.
(b) Foreclosure By Power of Sale.
(i) Should Lender elect to foreclose by exercise of the
power of sale herein contained, Lender shall deliver to Trustee a
written declaration of default and demand for sale, and shall deposit
with Trustee this Deed of Trust and the Note and such receipts and
evidence of expenditures made and secured hereby as Trustee may
require.
(ii) Upon receipt of notice from Lender, Trustee shall
cause to be recorded, published and delivered to Borrower such notice
of default and election to sell as is then required by law. Trustee
shall, without demand on Borrower, after lapse of such time as may then
be required by law and after recordation of such notice of default and
after notice of sale having been given as required by law, sell the
Trust Property at the time and place of sale fixed by it in said notice
of sale, either as a whole, or in separate lots or parcels or items and
in such order as Lender may direct Trustee so to do, at public auction
to the highest bidder, for cash in lawful money of the United States
payable at the time of sale. Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser or
purchasers thereof its good and sufficient deed or deeds conveying the
property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or
implied. The recitals in such deed of any matter or fact shall be prima
facie evidence of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including
without limitation Borrower, Trustee or Lender, may purchase at such
sale, and Borrower hereby covenants to warrant and defend the title of
such purchaser or purchasers.
(iii) Subject to applicable law, Trustee may postpone the
sale of all or any portion of the Property by public announcement at
the time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter may
postpone such sale by public announcement or subsequently noticed sale,
and without further notice make such sale at the time fixed by the last
postponement, or may, in its discretion, give a new notice of sale.
-80-
(c) Unified Sale of Real Property. Fixtures and Personal
Property. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Deed of Trust, Lender may
elect to proceed against any or all of the real property, personal property and
fixtures constituting the Trust Property in any manner permitted under UCC
Section 9501(4)(a) or any successor statute thereof; and if the Lender elects to
proceed in the manner permitted under UCC Section 9501(4)(a)(ii) or any
successor statute thereof, Lender may further elect to proceed by judicial or
nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to all or any of the real property,
personal property and fixtures covered hereby, as designated by Lender, and
Lender or the Trustee (as applicable) are hereby authorized and empowered to
conduct any such sale of any real property, personal property and fixtures in
accordance with the procedures applicable to real property. Where the Trust
Property consists of real property and personal property, any reinstatement of
the Debt secured hereby, following an Event of Default and an election by the
Lender to accelerate the maturity of said obligation, which is made by Borrower
or any other person or entity permitted to exercise the right of reinstatement
under Section 2924c of the California Civil Code or any successor statute, shall
not invalidate, rescind or otherwise affect any sale, disposition or other
proceeding held or conducted with respect to any personal property or fixtures
prior to such reinstatement.
(d) Receiver. Lender shall be entitled, as a matter of
absolute right and without regard to the value of any security for the Debt or
the solvency of any person liable therefor, to the appointment of a receiver for
the Trust Property upon ex parte application to any court of competent
jurisdiction. Borrower waives any right to any hearing or notice of hearing
prior to the appointment of a receiver. Such receiver and his agents shall be
empowered (i) to take possession of the Trust Property and any businesses
conducted by Borrower or any other person thereon and any business assets used
in connection therewith and, if the receiver deems it appropriate, to operate
the same, (ii) to exclude Borrower and Borrower's agents, servants, and
employees from the Trust Property, (iii) to collect the rents, issues, profits,
and income therefrom, (iv) to complete any construction which may be in
progress, (v) to do such maintenance and make such repairs and alterations as
the receiver deems necessary, (vi) to use all stores of materials, supplies, and
maintenance equipment on the Trust Property and replace such items at the
expense of the receivership estate, (vii) to pay all taxes and assessments
against the Trust Property, all premiums for insurance thereon, all utility and
other operating expenses, and all sums due under any prior or subsequent
encumbrance, and (viii) generally to do anything which Borrower could legally do
if Borrower were in possession of the Trust Property. All expenses incurred by
the receiver or his agents shall constitute a part of the Debt. Any revenues
collected by the receiver shall be applied first to the expenses of the
receivership, including attorneys' fees incurred by the receiver and by Lender,
together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until
repaid, and the balance shall be applied toward the Debt or in such other manner
as the court may direct. Unless sooner terminated with the express consent of
Lender or by court order, any such receivership will continue until the Debt has
been discharged in full, or until title to the Trust Property has passed after
foreclosure sale and all applicable periods of redemption have expired. Lender's
rights hereunder include its rights under California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 564, as such section may be amended from time to time.
(e) UCC. Exercise any or all rights and remedies granted
to a secured party upon default under the UCC, in such order and in such manner
as Lender, in its sole discretion but subject to applicable law, may determine,
including, without limiting the generality of the
-81-
foregoing: (i) the right to take possession of the personal property or any part
thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the
care, protection and preservation of the personal property, and (ii) the right
to require Borrower at its expense to assemble the personal property and make it
available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to Lender. Any notice of
sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the
personal property sent to Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at
least ten (10) Business Days prior to such action, shall constitute commercially
reasonable notice to Borrower.
(f) Action for Breach of Contract. In accordance with
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736, as such section may be amended
from time to time, Lender may bring an action for breach of contract against
Borrower for breach of any "environmental provision" (as such term is defined in
such section) made by Borrower herein or in any other Loan Document, for the
recovery of damages and/or for the enforcement of the environmental provision.
(g) Waiver of Security. In accordance with California
Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5, as such Section may be amended from time
to time, Lender may waive the security of this Deed of Trust as to any parcel of
the Trust Property that is "environmentally impaired" or is an "affected parcel"
(as such terms are defined in such Section), and as to any personal property
attached to such parcel, and thereafter may exercise against Borrower, to the
extent permitted by such Section 726.5 and subject to paragraph 57 hereof, the
rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor, including reduction of Lender's
claim against Borrower to judgment, and any other rights and remedies permitted
by law. In the event the Lender elects, in accordance with California Code of
Civil Procedure Section 726.5, to waive all or part of the security of this Deed
of Trust and proceed against Borrower on an unsecured basis, the valuation of
the real property, the determination of the environmentally impaired status of
such security and any cause of action for a money judgment shall, at the request
of Lender, be referred to a referee in accordance with California Code of Civil
Procedure Sections 638 et seq. Such referee shall be an independent and
unaffiliated M.A.I, appraiser selected by Lender and approved by Borrower, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The decision of such
referee shall be binding upon both Borrower and Lender, and judgment upon the
award rendered by such referee shall be entered in the court in which such
proceeding was commenced in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure
Sections 644 and 645. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by Lender in connection with any proceeding under California Code of
Civil Procedure Section 726.5, as such section may be amended from time to time.
(h) Other. Exercise all other rights, remedies and
recourses granted under the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in
equity.
(i) Separate Sales. The Trust Property may be sold in one
or more parcels and in such manner and order as Lender, in its sole discretion,
may direct Trustee so to do. A sale of less than the whole of the Trust Property
or any defective or irregular sale made hereunder shall not exhaust the power of
sale provided for herein, and subsequent sales may be made hereunder until all
obligations secured hereby have been satisfied, or the entire Trust Property
sold, without defect or irregularity.
-82-
(j) Credit Bids. At any sale or disposition of any or all
of the Trust Property-held or made under the power of sale granted in this Deed
of Trust or in connection with judicial proceedings, or by virtue of a judgment
and decree of foreclosure and sale, if Lender is the purchaser at such sale or
disposition Lender shall have the right to offset its bid at such sale to the
extent of the Debt, including the portion of the Debt attributable to the
expenses of sale, costs of any action and other sums for which Borrower is
obligated to pay or reimburse Lender or Trustee under this Deed of Trust.
65. DEED OF TRUST NOT TO SECURE ENVIRONMENTAL COVENANTS,
OBLIGATIONS, AND INDEMNITIES OR GUARANTY OBLIGATIONS. Notwithstanding anything
in this Deed of Trust to the contrary, this Deed of Trust is not intended to,
and by the express provisions hereof, does not secure (a) any environmental (i)
covenant, (ii) obligation or (iii) indemnity of Borrower made or provided
herein, or in the Environmental and Hazardous Substance Indemnification
Agreement executed simultaneously herewith, or (b) the obligations of any (i)
Guarantor of any Debt or (ii) third party indemnitor under the Environmental and
Hazardous Substance Indemnification Agreement or under any other indemnity.
66. ADDITIONAL WAIVERS.
(a) Borrower has read and hereby approves the Note, this
Deed of Trust, the other Loan Documents and all other agreements and documents
relating thereto. Borrower acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel
of its choice to review this Deed of Trust, the Note, the other Loan Documents
and all other documents relating thereto and said counsel has explained and
Borrower understands the provisions thereof, or that Borrower has voluntarily
declined to retain such counsel.
(b) Borrower hereby expressly waives diligence, demand,
presentment, protest and notice of every kind and nature whatsoever (unless as
otherwise required under this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents) and
waives any right to require Lender to enforce any remedy against any Guarantor,
endorser or other person whatsoever prior to the exercise of its rights and
remedies hereunder or otherwise. Borrower waives any right to require Lender to:
(i) proceed or exhaust any collateral security given or held by Lender in
connection with the Debt; (ii) give notice of the terms, time and place of any
public or private sale of any real or personal property security for the Debt or
other guaranty of the Debt; or (iii) pursue any other remedy in Lender's power
whatsoever.
(c) Until all Debt shall have been paid in full,
Borrower: (i) shall not have any right of subrogation to any of the rights of
Lender against any Guarantor, maker or endorser; (ii) waives any right to
enforce any remedy which Lender now has or may hereafter have against any other
Guarantor, maker or endorser; and (iii) waives any benefit of, and any other
right to participate in, any collateral security for the Debt or any guaranty of
the Debt now or hereafter held by Lender.

Amounts allocated to the Loan Sub-accounts shall be disbursed

(d) (i) The Lender shall deliver one or more executed
Instruction Letters to the Clearing Bank. If the Clearing Bank shall request any
changes, modifications or supplements to any Instruction Letter to conform to
the Clearing Bank's customary practice or requirements, as the same may change
from time to time, then if such changes, modifications or supplements are
reasonably acceptable to Lender, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender
such instruments as the Clearing Bank shall reasonably request to effectuate
such modifications or changes. In the event the Borrower fails to execute such
Instruction Letter as provided above within three (3) Business Days after
receipt of written request for such execution, Borrower hereby appoints the
Lender as its attorney-in-fact with full authority to enter into replacement
Instruction Letter(s) and to execute on behalf of the Borrower any new modified
Instruction Letter acceptable to the proposed Clearing Bank. All costs and
expenses incurred by the Lender to negotiate and execute any modified
Instruction Letter shall be paid by the Borrower.
(ii) If the Clearing Bank fails to perform its
obligations as set forth in the Instruction Letter, then, upon the request of
Lender, within ten (10) Business Days, the Borrower will establish a new
Eligible Account (which shall become the Clearing Account) at a bank selected by
the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to Lender and shall cause all funds in
the existing Clearing Account to be transferred to the new Clearing Account and
any future Rents from the Property to be deposited in such new Clearing Account.
(iii) In the event that Borrower requests that a
new Clearing Account be established (which new Clearing Account shall be an
Eligible Account), and Lender consents to such change, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Borrower shall, prior to the establishment
of such account, execute a replacement Instruction Letter to cover the new
account, which replacement Instruction Letter shall be in the form of the
Instruction Letter annexed hereto as Exhibit A with such changes thereto as may
be requested by such new Clearing Bank in order to conform such Instruction
Letter with such new bank's customary practice. The existing Clearing Account
shall remain in effect until Borrower has executed a replacement Instruction
Letter for the new Clearing Account and the new Clearing Bank has acknowledged
receipt of such replacement Instruction Letter and has agreed to comply with the
instructions contained therein by executing an Acknowledgment in the form of
Schedule I
-5-
attached to Exhibit A attached hereto, and Borrower may rescind its request for
a new Clearing Account in the event Borrower does not approve of any changes to
the form of the Instruction Letter annexed hereto as Exhibit A requested by such
new Clearing Bank.
(e) The Lender or the Servicer shall, at the direction of
Borrower, direct the Deposit Bank to invest amounts allocated to the Cash
Collateral Account in Permitted Investments selected by the Borrower. All
earnings on such Permitted Investments on funds allocated to the Cash Collateral
Account shall be (a) added to and become part of the Cash Collateral Account,
(b) taxed as income of the Borrower, (c) for the benefit of the Borrower,
subject to Lender's rights pursuant to this Agreement, and (d) remitted to
Borrower jointly once per calendar quarter, provided that no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, to the extent not already disbursed or applied
in accordance with this Agreement. Borrower shall have liability for any loss in
investments of funds that are invested in Permitted Investments and no such loss
or liability shall affect Borrower's obligations to make all payments and
deposits required to be made by Borrower under the Loan Documents.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any of the
other Loan Documents, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, Borrower shall have no right to select Permitted Investments.
(f) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the
entire amounts deposited in the Cash Collateral Account (or as much thereof as
the Lender may reasonably arrange to invest) may be invested in Permitted
Investments selected by the Borrower, and, in such event, that the Cash
Collateral Account shall be a so-called "zero balance" account (unless it is a
Trust Account). All funds in the Cash Collateral Account that are invested in a
Permitted Investment are deemed to be held in the Cash Collateral Account for
all purposes of the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents.
(g) In order to further secure the performance by the
Borrower of the Obligations and as a material inducement for the Lender to make
the Loans in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, the Borrower
hereby (i) requests that the Cash Collateral Account be established on its
behalf at the Deposit Bank in the name set forth above and (ii) acknowledges
that (A) the Cash Collateral Account will be subject to the sole dominion,
control and discretion of the Lender (which may be exercised through the
Servicer), subject to the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement and
the Deed of Trust, (B) the Lender shall have the sole right to make withdrawals
or transfers of funds from the Cash Collateral Account and (C) neither the
Borrower nor any other Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower
shall have any right or authority, whether express or implied, to make use of,
or withdraw any funds, investments or other properties from, the Cash Collateral
Account, or to give any instructions with respect to the Cash Collateral
Account.
(h) Deposit Bank will send a monthly report to Borrower
(in a manner consistent with Deposit Bank's standard practice) by regular U.S.
mail at the Borrower's address specified above, which monthly report shall
specify the balance of, and credits and charges to, the Cash Collateral Account
and each Sub-account thereof for each calendar day of the previous month.
Deposit Bank will send to the Lender (in a manner consistent with Deposit Bank's
standard practices), by regular U.S. mail at the Lender's address specified,
copies of all correspondence, notices, account statements and other information
(but not canceled checks)
-6-
which Deposit Bank is obligated to send to Borrower. Deposit Bank also agrees to
provide to each of Borrower and the Lender (as a service under this Agreement)
copies of account statements and other account information, including account
balances, by telephone and by computer communication, to the extent practicable
and as shall have been requested by Borrower or by Lender. Borrower shall be
deemed at all times to have consented to Deposit Bank's release of such account
information to Lender. Deposit Bank's liability for failure to comply with this
Section shall not exceed the cost of providing such information.
SECTION 3. ALLOCATION AND DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS IN THE CASH COLLATERAL
ACCOUNT.
(a) With respect to each Collection Period, the Lender or
the Servicer shall allocate, and shall cause the Deposit Bank to allocate, from

all proceeds of the foregoing. This Agreement and the pledge, assignment and
grant of security interest made hereby shall secure payment of all amounts

The Borrower acknowledges that the Servicer, Clearing Bank and Deposit Bank are
acting as the agent of, and at the direction of, the Lender in connection with
the subject matter of this Agreement. The Borrower further agrees to execute,
acknowledge, deliver, file or do at its sole cost and expense, all other acts,
assignments, notices, agreements or other instruments as the Lender may
reasonably require in order to effectuate, assure, convey, secure, assign,
transfer and convey unto the Lender any of the rights granted by this Agreement

those received by the Clearing Bank with respect to the then-current Collection
Period; provided, that if the Borrower deposits such amounts, the amounts
deposited shall be subject to all of the terms hereof as if not separately
deposited by the Borrower, and may not be withdrawn except as otherwise provided
for in this Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall impair or otherwise limit
Borrower's obligations to timely make the payments (including, without
limitation, interest and principal) required by the Note, the Deed of Trust and
the other Loan Documents, it being understood that such payments shall be so
timely made in accordance with the Loan Documents regardless of the amounts on
deposit in the Clearing Account or Cash Collateral Account.
(e) The Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that amounts
allocated to the Operating Expense Sub-account with respect to the payment of
operating expenses or capital
-10-
expenditures shall be used only for payment of checks made by the Borrower for
the payment of operating expenses or capital expenditures incurred in the
ownership and operation of the Property and reasonably approved by the Lender or
permitted by the Loan Documents. In any month, Borrower shall be entitled to
receive and use for Cash Expenses an amount in excess of the budgeted amount
("BUDGET VARIANCES") for such month set forth in the Approved Annual Budget by
requesting the same in writing not less than three (3) Business Days prior to
the first day of the Collection Period during which such Budget Variances are to
be disbursed so long as the aggregate amount of all such Budget Variances so
requested by Borrower in any month does not exceed an amount that, together with
any Budget Variances previously disbursed to Borrower in such calendar year, is
greater than five percent (5%) of the total budgeted expenditures (excluding any
contingency line item) for such calendar year as set forth in the then current
Approved Annual Budget.
(f) On or before the last day of each calendar quarter,
Borrower shall prepare and deliver to Lender a financial statement (the "ACTUAL
EXPENDITURE STATEMENT") in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in all
material respects setting forth all amounts expended for Operating Expenses
during the immediately preceding calendar quarter, including showing variances
from budget and setting forth a short explanation of any variance in excess of
ten percent (10%) of the budget line item in question and identifying any
payment made to an affiliate and the reasons therefor. Each Actual Expenditure
Statement shall be certified by an officer of Borrower or the REIT as being
true, correct and complete in all material respects and include a certification
that all amounts transferred to the Operating Account pursuant to this Agreement
were expended for Operating Expenses substantially in accordance with this
Agreement or shall be credited against or returned to the Cash Collateral
Account as provided below. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender such
further documentation (including, without limitation, invoices, canceled checks
or copies of contracts) and information as Lender may reasonably request
regarding any payments described in the Actual Expenditure Statement. On each
Reconciliation Date during the term of the Loans, if the Actual Expenditure
Statements for the immediately preceding calendar quarter indicate that the
Operating Expenses actually incurred and paid during such calendar quarter, plus
the amount necessary to maintain the Operating Account Balance Floor (as
hereinafter defined) in the Operating Account as of the last day of such
calendar quarter, were less than the amount disbursed to the Operating Account
during such calendar quarter (the positive difference in the amount disbursed to
the Operating Account and the amount actually spent on Operating Expenses is
hereafter referred to as the "EXPENSE SURPLUS"), then the funds allocated for
Operating Expenses to be disbursed to the Operating Expense Sub-account on the
next occurring Payment Date in accordance with the Approved Annual Budget (as
defined in the Note) (the "ALLOCATED DISBURSEMENT AMOUNT") shall be reduced by
an amount equal to the Expense Surplus; provided, further, that if the Allocated
Disbursement Amount is less than the Expense Surplus, then Borrower, prior to
the next occurring Payment Date, shall deposit into the Cash Collateral Account
the amount by which the Expense Surplus exceeds the Allocated Disbursement
Amount (the "ALLOCATION SURPLUS"). If Borrower shall fail to, within the
described required time periods, (i) so deposit any such Allocation Surplus into
the Cash Collateral Account, or (ii) provide the Actual Expenditure Statements
required by the terms hereof or (iii) after written request of Lender, provide
evidence of expenditures or (iv) provide to Lender the items described in
paragraph 18(b) of the Deed of Trust in accordance with the terms of such
paragraph 18(b) and (in the case of any of (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv)) such
failure continues for ten (10) or more days after
-11-
notice of such failure, then in addition to any other remedies which Lender may
have with respect thereto, Lender may elect not to fund the Operating Expense
Sub-account from monies in the Cash Collateral Account or Lender may continue to
hold the funds in the Operating Expense Sub-account until such failure is cured.
SECTION 7. CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE LENDER.
(a) The parties agree that the Deposit Bank shall pay
over to the Lender all amounts deposited in any account maintained hereunder on
demand, provided, that in making such demand, the Lender gives notice to
Borrower of such demand, in writing, signed by the Lender or an authorized agent
thereof, and that an Event of Default under the Deed of Trust has occurred and
is continuing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be deemed
to have waived any rights the Borrower may have against the Lender if it is
determined that the Lender acted improperly.
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, Lender may exercise in respect of the Collateral all rights
and remedies available to Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or
otherwise available at law or in equity. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing or the provisions of paragraph (a) above, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower acknowledges and agrees
that it will have no further right to request or otherwise require Lender to
disburse funds from the Clearing Account or the Cash Collateral Account in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, it being agreed that Lender may, at
its option, (i) direct the Deposit Bank to continue to hold the funds in the
Cash Collateral Account and/or (ii) continue from time to time to apply all or
any portion of the funds held in the Cash Collateral Account to any payment(s)
which such funds could have been applied to prior to such Event of Default (or
to pay Cash Expenses, Net Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Note) and
Extraordinary Expenses directly), to the extent and in such order and manner as
Lender in its sole discretion may determine, and/or (iii) direct that the
Deposit Bank or Clearing Bank from time to time disburse all or any portion of
the funds held in the Cash Collateral Account or other Collateral then or
thereafter held by the Deposit Bank or Clearing Bank, as applicable, to Lender,
in which event Lender may apply the funds held in the Cash Collateral Account or
other Collateral to the Obligations in any order and in such manner as Lender
may determine in its sole discretion.
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, Lender may, at any time or from time to time, subject to the
requirements of applicable law, collect, appropriate, redeem, realize upon or
otherwise enforce its rights with respect to the Collateral, and without the
need to institute any legal action, make demand, exhaust any other remedies or
otherwise proceed to enforce its rights, provided that Lender gives notice to
Borrower, in writing, that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(d) No failure on the part of Lender to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right under this Agreement or the Deed of Trust shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The remedies
provided in this Agreement, the Note, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided at law or in
equity.

SECTION 8. MATTERS CONCERNING THE DEPOSIT BANK.
(a) Borrower hereby authorizes and directs Deposit Bank
to comply, and Deposit Bank agrees to comply, with instructions originated by
the Lender in accordance with this Agreement directing the disposition of funds
from time to time in the Cash Collateral Account or as to any other matters
relating to the Cash Collateral Account without further consent by Borrower, but
subject to the terms of this Agreement.
(b) All defenses of Deposit Bank under the Agreement and
Articles 3, 4, and 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code (as adopted in the State
where the respective Account is located) as to the payment and collection of
items shall also be applicable to and enforceable against the Lender. Each of
Borrower and the Lender hereby authorizes and instructs Deposit Bank to supply
Borrower's or the Lender's endorsement, as appropriate, to any items that
Deposit Bank receives and deposits for collection to the Cash Collateral
Account.
(c) Deposit Bank will not exercise any security interest
(except for the security interest provided in Section 4-210 of the Uniform
Commercial Code as adopted in the State where the Cash Collateral Account is
located), lien, right of setoff, deduction, recoupment or banker's lien or any
other interest in or against the Cash Collateral Account, and Deposit Bank
hereby subordinates any such security interest, lien or right which it may have
against the Cash Collateral Account, except that Deposit Bank may set off and
charge against the Cash Collateral Account for (i) the face amount of each
Returned Item (hereinafter defined), (ii) all usual and customary service
charges, (iii) account maintenance fees, (iv) transfer fees, (v) out-of-pocket
fees and expenses incurred by Deposit Bank in connection with the enforcement of
this Agreement, (vi) adjustments or corrections of posting or encoding errors,
and (vii) any other items normally chargeable to an account, whether incurred
before or after the date of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, "RETURN
ITEM" shall mean (i) any items deposited into the Cash Collateral Account either
before or after the date of this Agreement and returned unpaid or otherwise
uncollected, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, and without
regard to the timeliness of such return or the occurrence or timeliness of any
drawee's notice of nonpayment; (ii) any items subject to a claim against Deposit
Bank for breach of transfer or presentment warranty under the Uniform Commercial
Code (as adopted in the State where the Cash Collateral Account is located),
(iii) any ACH entry credited to the Cash Collateral Account and returned unpaid
or subject to an adjustment entry under applicable clearing house rules, whether
for insufficient funds or for any other reason, and without regard to the
timeliness of such return or adjustment; (iv) any credit to the Cash Collateral
Account from a merchant card transaction against which a contractual demand for
chargeback has been made; and (v) any credit to the Cash Collateral Account made
in error.
(d) Deposit Bank shall be entitled to rely conclusively
upon any notice or instruction it receives from the Lender and which Deposit
Bank believes in good faith to be a notice or instruction from the Lender, and
Deposit Bank shall have no obligation to investigate or verify the authenticity
or correctness of any such notice or instruction. Deposit Bank shall have no
liability to Borrower for honoring any instruction Deposit Bank receives from
the Lender regarding the Cash Collateral Account. Deposit Bank shall be fully
discharged from liability with respect to any funds on deposit in the Cash
Collateral Account to the extent that Deposit
-13-
Bank honors and follows instructions it receives from the Lender and transfers
any of such funds to, or on the instructions of, the Lender.
(e) In the event a third party shall assert an adverse
claim by legal process against the Cash Collateral Account or any sums on
deposit therein, whether such claim shall arise by tax lien, execution of
judgment, attachment, garnishment, levy, claim of a trustee in bankruptcy or
debtor-in-possession, or a competing lien creditor or other judicial or
regulatory order or process (each, a "CLAIM"), Deposit Bank may, in addition to
other remedies it may possess under this Agreement or at law or in equity, (i)
suspend disbursements from the Cash Collateral Account reasonably sufficient to
satisfy such Claim, without any liability until Deposit Bank shall have received
an appropriate court order or other assurances acceptable to Deposit Bank in its
sole discretion establishing that funds may continue to be disbursed according
to instructions then applicable to the Cash Collateral Account, and/or (ii)
immediately interplead all such funds in the Cash Collateral Account into the
registry of the appropriate court located in the State where the Cash Collateral
Account is maintained, and Borrower and the Lender, jointly and severally, shall
pay promptly all of Deposit Bank's costs, expenses and attorneys' reasonable
fees incurred in connection with such Claim. If a bankruptcy or insolvency
proceeding shall have been commenced by or against Borrower, Deposit Bank shall
be entitled to refuse to permit deposits to, or withdrawals and/or transfers
from, the Cash Collateral Account without any liability until Deposit Bank shall
have received an appropriate court order or other assurances acceptable to
Deposit Bank in its sole discretion establishing that continued deposits to, or
withdrawals and/or transfers from, the Cash Collateral Account are authorized
and do not and will not violate any law, regulation, or order of any court.
SECTION 9. CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS SUB-ACCOUNT; EXTRAORDINARY
RECEIPTS SUB-ACCOUNT.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
following items of Rents shall be deposited and held in the Loan Sub-accounts
described below and shall be applied in the order of priority set forth in this
Section 9, and Borrower shall advise Lender at the time of receipt thereof of
the nature of such Receipt so that Lender shall have sufficient time to instruct
the Deposit Bank to deposit and hold such amounts in the appropriate Loan
Sub-account:
(a) Proceeds of any insurance, including, without
limitation, rent or business interruption insurance, which amounts shall be
deposited in the Casualty and Condemnation Proceeds Sub-account and shall be
applied (by instructions of Lender or Servicer to the Deposit Bank) in
accordance with the provisions of the Deed of Trust applicable thereto.
(b) Condemnation awards, which amounts shall be deposited
in the Casualty and Condemnation Proceeds Sub-account and shall be applied (by
instructions of Lender or Servicer to the Deposit Bank) in accordance with the
provisions of the Deed of Trust applicable thereto.
(c) Real estate tax refunds (net of any reasonable and
customary fees and disbursements of tax certiorari counsel deducted from such

Extraordinary Receipts Sub-account and shall thereafter be transferred (by
instructions of Lender to the Deposit Bank) to the Operating Account to the
-14-
extent required to pay refunds due to any tenants of the Property (based on a
certificate of Borrower as to the tenants entitled to receive such refunds and
the amounts thereof), except Lender reserves the right to pay (or have the
Servicer pay) any such tenant directly using monies so deposited in the
Extraordinary Receipts Sub-account, in lieu of transferring such monies to the
Operating Account for such payment. Lender or Servicer shall apply any excess,
after the aforesaid payment, as if ordinary Rents deposited in the Cash
Collateral Account.
(d) Damages or other payments in excess of $250,000 in
settlement of claims by Borrower against any tenant in connection with the
Property and arising out of such tenant's Lease, including, without limitation,
pertaining to any rejection, termination or cancellation of any Lease (including
in any bankruptcy case), Lease buy-out, and surrender payments from tenants or
any holdover rents or use and occupancy fees from tenants or former tenants
shall be deposited in the Extraordinary Receipts Sub-account. With respect to
any monies deposited in the Extraordinary Receipts Sub-account pursuant to this
paragraph (d), Lender shall direct Deposit Bank to apply the amount so deposited
(or the portion thereof specified below) as if ordinary Rents to be applied in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the month in question as
follows: (i) if the amount so deposited was paid under or with respect to a
Lease, either (x) each month, that portion of the amount so deposited that
equals the total amount paid divided by the number of months remaining in the
term of such Lease (at the time of any such cancellation, termination or
rejection) or (y) if Borrower shall satisfy Lender that the event resulting in
such payment did not materially adversely affect the fair market value of the
Property and that the Property would satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio test
at least equal to 1.10:1.0 (provided that such Debt Service Coverage Ratio test
shall exclude any rents from the Lease from which such payments were received
and which payments are the subject of the requested disbursement), the entire
amount so deposited shall, provided no Event of Default is then continuing, be
disbursed on the next Payment Date to the Borrower Remainder Sub-account and
(ii) with respect to any other amount deposited in the Extraordinary Receipts
Sub-account pursuant to this paragraph (d), (x) if insufficient funds exist
during any month to make all payments to be made for such month prior to the
disbursement to the Borrower Remainder Sub-account, the portion of the amount so
deposited as is necessary to eliminate any such deficiency or (y) if Borrower
shall satisfy Lender that the event resulting in such payment did not materially
adversely affect the fair market value of the Property and that the Property
would satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio test at least equal to 1.10:1.0
(provided that such Debt Service Coverage Ratio test shall exclude any rents
from the Lease from which such payments were received and which payments are the
subject of the requested disbursement), the entire amount so deposited shall,
provided no Event of Default is then continuing, be disbursed on the next
Payment Date to the Borrower Remainder Sub-account.
(e) All sums paid with respect to a modification of any
Lease or otherwise paid in connection with Borrower taking any action under any
Lease (e.g., granting a consent) or waiving any provision thereof, but only to
the extent any such payment exceeds $250,000 (if such sums paid do not exceed
$250,000, such payment shall be deposited in the Clearing Account and applied as
ordinary Rents) shall be deposited in the Extraordinary Receipts Sub-account and
shall be applied (by instruction of Lender or Servicer to Deposit Bank) as
provided in any consent of Lender given in connection with any such action, or,
if no such direction is given, shall (i) in the case of any modification which
reduces the rent paid under any Lease or shortens the term of such Lease, either
(x) be applied as Rents available for distribution
-15-
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement for the month in question
only as to that portion of the amount so deposited with Lender as Lender, in its
reasonable discretion, shall determine represents reduced rent or lost rent in
the applicable month under any such Lease as a result of any such modification
or (y) if Borrower shall satisfy Lender that the event resulting in such payment
did not materially adversely affect the fair market value of the Property and
that the Property would satisfy a Debt Service Coverage Ratio test at least
equal to 1.10:1.0 (provided that such Debt Service Coverage Ratio test shall
exclude any rents from the Lease from which such payments were received and
which payments are the subject of the requested disbursement), the entire amount
so deposited shall, provided no Event of Default is then continuing, be
disbursed on the next Payment Date to the Borrower Remainder Sub-account and
(ii) in all other cases, only be applied as Rents available for distribution in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement for the month in question if
and to the extent either subclause (x) or (y) of paragraph (d)(ii) above shall
be applicable.
If the fees and disbursements of tax certiorari counsel
described in paragraph (c) above shall not have been deducted from the real
estate tax refunds by such counsel prior to payment of such refunds to Borrower,
then such fees and disbursements may be paid as part of Cash Expenses, provided
such fees and disbursements are commercially reasonable. References to
application of any amounts received by Borrower by reason of any action taken by
Borrower under or with respect to a Lease, or otherwise, is not intended in any
manner to allow Borrower to take such action in prohibition of any other
provision of the Loan Documents. Except as expressly set forth in any judgment
of any court exercising jurisdiction thereover or in any agreement with the
Tenant approved by Lender, Lender shall in its reasonable judgment determine the
amount of any payment described in paragraph (d) that falls within clause (i)(x)
or (ii)(x) thereof as opposed to clause (i)(y) or (ii)(y) thereof.
SECTION 10. OPERATING ACCOUNT. On the date hereof, Borrower shall
deposit in the Operating Account an amount equal to $500,000 (the "OPERATING
ACCOUNT BALANCE FLOOR"), which amount shall be funded with the proceeds of the
Loans and which may be used by Borrower from time to time to pay Operating
Expenses at the Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. If, as a result of payment of Operating Expenses at the
Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, the amount on deposit in the Operating Account shall at any time be
less than the Operating Account Balance Floor, then the amount to be disbursed
to the Operating Account pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3(b)(vi)
hereof shall be increased by an amount necessary to achieve a balance in the
Operating Account of no less than the Operating Account Balance Floor.
SECTION 11. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; ASSIGNMENTS; AGENTS.
(a) This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of
and be enforceable by the Borrower, the Lender and the Manager and their
respective successors and assigns.
(b) The Lender shall have the right to assign or transfer
rights and obligations under this Agreement without limitation. Any assignee or
transferee of Lender shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded the Lender
under this Agreement; provided, that such assignee or transferee shall upon
written request deliver to the other parties hereto written confirmation that
-16-
such assignee or transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement
and is also the assignee or transferee of the Note and the other Loan Documents.
(c) The Borrower shall have the right to assign and
transfer its rights and obligations hereunder only with the prior written
consent of the Lender.
(d) Any duties or actions of the Lender hereunder may be
performed by the Lender or its agent(s), including without limitation, any
Servicer or trustee in a Securitization, which includes the Loans.
SECTION 12. AMENDMENT.
This Agreement may be amended from time to time in writing by
all parties hereto. All amendments to this Agreement shall be in writing.
SECTION 13. NOTICES.

prepaid or (c) in the case of facsimile notice, when sent and electronically
confirmed, addressed as set forth above.

errors in judgment or mistakes of fact or law, including, without limitation,
acts, omissions, errors or mistakes with respect to the Collateral, except for
those arising as a result of Lender's active gross negligence, illegal acts or
willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as
otherwise expressly provided for herein or as required by applicable law, Lender
shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action
with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other
matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not Lender has or is deemed to
have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to
preserve rights against any parties or any other right pertaining to any
Collateral. Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower to act on any written
instruction believed by Lender in good faith to have been given or sent by
Borrower.
(b) The provisions of Section 57 of the Deed of Trust are
hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
(c) Deposit Bank will use the due care in performing its
duties and responsibilities under this Agreement and shall only be responsible
for the loss that a court having jurisdiction over the Cash Collateral Account
shall have determined, in a final and unappealable judgment, had been incurred
by Borrower or the Lender solely as a result of Deposit Bank's gross negligence
or willful misconduct. Deposit Bank shall have no liability to any party for
failure of, or delay in, its performance under this Agreement as a result of any
act of God, fire, other catastrophe, force majeure, electrical or computer or
telecommunications
-17-

third party. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any agency, fiduciary, joint
venture or partnership relationship between Deposit Bank and Borrower or the
Lender. Borrower hereby indemnifies Deposit Bank and holds it harmless against
any loss, damage or expense (including attorneys' reasonable fees and expenses,
court costs and other expenses) including, but not limited to, unpaid charges,
fees, and Returned Items for which the Lender and/or Borrower originally
received credit or remittance, which loss, damage or expense Deposit Bank may

honoring any instruction Deposit Bank receives from the Lender with respect to
the Cash Collateral Account or, to the extent required by this Agreement, not
honoring any instructions it receives from Borrower with respect to the Cash
Collateral Account, except for those losses, damages, or expenses that a court
having jurisdiction shall have determined in a final and unappealable judgment
resulted solely from Deposit Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct. In

for lost profits or special, indirect, exemplary, consequential or punitive
damages, even if Deposit Bank shall have been advised of the possibility of such
damages.
SECTION 15. MORTGAGEE-IN-POSSESSION.
Borrower hereby confirms and agrees that notwithstanding the
provisions of this Agreement, Borrower retains sole control of the operation and

Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000
Re: Xxxxx Fargo Center (North Tower), Los Angeles, California
Ladies and Gentlemen:
North Tower, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
"BORROWER"), has entered into that certain Deed of Trust, Assignment of Leases
and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (the "DEED OF TRUST"), dated as
of June 26, 2003, given by Borrower for the benefit of Greenwich Capital
Financial Products, Inc. (together with its successors and assigns, the
"LENDER"), pursuant to which the Lender has provided financing to the Borrower
secured by the Deed of Trust encumbering that certain property described in the
caption of this letter (the "PROPERTY"). The Property is currently being managed
by Xxxxxxx Properties, L.P. (the "MANAGER").
Currently, the Borrower maintains the following account (the
"CLEARING ACCOUNT") with you:
Name: North Tower, LLC
Account No.: 729-012062
The Borrower hereby notifies you that the Lender has required
that it implement certain automatic clearing and processing functions and hereby
instructs you, commencing on the date hereof (the "SWEEP COMMENCEMENT DATE"), to
disburse all revenues from the Property ("REVENUES") deposited in the Clearing
Account from time to time in accordance with the following terms and provisions:
Promptly upon receipt of this letter, you shall establish a
post office box address in which the Borrower shall cause all Revenues in the
form of checks, money orders and similar instruments to be deposited. Within one
Business Day (as defined below) of receipt, you, as the "CLEARING BANK," shall
receive and process all Revenues and shall deposit the same into the Clearing
Account. Checks made payable to the Borrower, the Manager or the Clearing
Account shall be deemed suitable for deposit in the Clearing Account. Items
deposited with Clearing Bank that are returned for insufficient or uncollected
funds will be redeposited the first time. Items returned unpaid a second time
shall be processed in accordance with the standard procedures of the Clearing
Bank.
EXH. A-1
The Clearing Account shall be an account of each Borrower but
shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Lender and any servicer (a
"SERVICER") or other designee of the Lender named below or in a subsequent
written notice from the Lender. The Clearing Account shall be assigned the
federal tax identification number of the Borrower, which number is 00-0000000.
You shall hold amounts on deposit in the Clearing Account as agent for the
Lender and shall not commingle such amounts with any other amounts held by you
on behalf of the Lender, the Borrower or any other person or entity. If, in
accordance with standard operating procedures, the Clearing Account may be
established as a trust account for the benefit of the Lender, Borrower directs
that the Clearing Account be maintained as such an account.
The Borrower hereby notifies the Clearing Bank that, in
accordance with the Deed of Trust, the Clearing Account and all amounts held
therein from time to time, and all renewals, replacements and substitutions
therefor, have been irrevocably pledged to the Lender as additional security for
the loan evidenced by the Deed of Trust. In connection with such pledge, the
Borrower hereby waives all right of withdrawal from the Clearing Account.
The Borrower hereby irrevocably instructs and authorizes you,
beginning on the first business day after the Sweep Commencement Date, to
disburse on each business day of each week via the ACH System, if available, or
otherwise by wire transfer, all amounts constituting available funds on deposit
in the Clearing Account to the following account:
[ ]
[ ]
[ ]
[ ]
If transferring such amounts by the ACH System and if required
by Clearing Bank, each such transfer shall be initiated by the Lender or by the
Servicer. If the Clearing Bank provides electronic data transfer services, the
Clearing Bank shall provide the Lender and the Servicer access to the Clearing
Bank's electronic data transfer system for purposes of effecting such transfers.
At any time that funds may not be transferred as described above in this
paragraph, the Clearing Bank shall transfer amounts by wire transfer of
immediately available funds.
The instructions set forth herein are irrevocable and are not
subject to modification in any manner, except that the Lender or the Servicer
may, by written notice to you, amend the instructions contained herein.
In the event that the Clearing Bank fails to acknowledge that
its procedures with respect to the Clearing Account are governed by this letter
due to an objection to the terms hereof or otherwise, the Borrower hereby
appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact with full authority to make
reasonable changes to this letter and to execute on behalf of the Borrower any
new modified letter acceptable to the proposed Clearing Bank.
In accordance with the Clearing Bank's procedures, the
Clearing Bank shall maintain a record of all deposits and transfers from the
Clearing Account and furnish statements to Borrower and Lender, on a monthly
basis, of all such transactions.
EXH. A-2
Clearing Bank assumes no duty to discharge any obligation of
Borrower to Lender or others. If Clearing Bank disburses payments later than set
forth herein, its liability for making late disbursements shall not exceed the
amount of interest which would have been paid on such funds if they had been
deposited in the Clearing Account in a timely manner. Clearing Bank shall not be
responsible for any consequential, incidental, indirect or special damage which
would exceed this amount in connection with any such disbursements deemed late,
including, but not limited to, disbursements deemed late resulting from Clearing
Bank's acts, nor shall Clearing Bank be responsible for any claim, loss,
liability, cost, expense or delay caused by equipment breakdown, electrical or
mechanical failure, causes beyond Clearing Bank's reasonable control, the
failure of either party to give Clearing Bank clear and explicit notices and
instructions, or damages caused (in whole or in part) by the party seeking
redress. Borrower and Lender understand and agree that the Clearing Account and
the fees charged by Clearing Bank have been established in contemplation of the
limitation on Clearing Bank's liability set forth in this paragraph.
Except for events of Clearing Bank's negligence or willful
misconduct (and in any such event, subject to the damage limitations set forth
above), Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Clearing Bank, its parent,
affiliates, subsidiaries, and their respective officers, employees and agents
harmless from and against all claims, actions, damages, losses, liabilities and
expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and court costs) arising out of
Clearing Bank's actions or omissions pursuant to this Agreement.
The parties hereto agree that Clearing Bank's sole
responsibility to Lender, Borrower, Manager or any third party for errors made
by Clearing Bank in processing any Rents shall be to process a correcting entry
in the next regularly scheduled processing of the work after receipt of
notification from Lender or its designee, Borrower or any third party.
Clearing Bank shall make every reasonable effort to deliver
the advices, copies and reports required by this Instruction Letter by the
mutually agreed upon time but does not guarantee a specific delivery time.
Accordingly, Clearing Bank's sole responsibility to Lender or any third party
with respect to the time of delivery of the advices, copies and reports required
by this Instruction Letter shall be to deliver such advices, copies and reports
as close to the mutually agreed upon time as may be reasonably practicable.
If Clearing Bank is unable to debit the Clearing Account for
any reason or if the Clearing Account contains insufficient funds from which to
reimburse itself on a particular business day for any of the charges to the
Clearing Account set forth on Schedule 2 attached hereto, Clearing Bank is
entitled to recover the insufficiency from incoming funds deposited into the
Clearing Account that business day. If, upon the next business day, the Clearing
Account continues to contain insufficient funds, Borrower agrees to reimburse
Clearing Bank promptly upon receiving Clearing Bank's notice of the same.
Matters not covered by this letter shall be determined in
accordance with the customary procedures of the Clearing Bank and in the event
of a conflict between the terms of this letter and the customary procedures of
the Clearing Bank, the terms of this letter shall govern.

secured) and (iv) a non-consolidation opinion with respect to the Successor
Borrower;
(vi) Borrower shall deliver to Lender a letter
issued by each of the applicable Rating Agencies (as defined in the Cash

additional collateral for the Loans and may be invested in Permitted Investments
selected by Borrower. Borrower shall cause the Eligible Institution at which the
Defeasance Collateral is deposited to enter into an agreement with Borrower and
Lender, satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, pursuant to which such
Eligible Institution shall agree to hold and distribute the Defeasance
Collateral in accordance with this Note. The Successor Borrower shall be the

(e) In connection with a Defeasance Event under this
Paragraph 9, Borrower shall, if required by the Rating Agencies or if Borrower

BORROWER") which shall be a Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity and which
shall be approved by the Rating Agencies. Any such Successor Borrower may, at
Borrower's option, be an Affiliate of Borrower unless the Rating Agencies shall

and duties under and to the Notes, together with the Defeasance Collateral to
such Successor Borrower. Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations
under the Notes and the Security Agreement and Borrower shall be relieved of its
obligations under such documents and the Loan Documents (except for any
environmental indemnities or other obligations that survive repayment of the
Loans). Borrower shall pay a minimum of $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as

connection therewith.
(f) Mandatory prepayments made in connection with the
application pursuant to the Deed of Trust of insurance proceeds or condemnation
awards shall be paid in the amounts and at the times specified in the Deed of
Trust, and, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, provided that no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing no Yield Maintenance Premium or
other premium shall be due or payable in connection with any such mandatory
prepayment whenever paid.
(g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph
9(f) hereof, the Yield Maintenance Premium shall be due, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, under any and all circumstances where all or any portion of
the Loans are paid prior to the Lock Out Date as a result of an involuntary
prepayment or a voluntary prepayment, even if such prepayment results from
Lender's exercise of its rights upon Borrower's default and acceleration of the
Maturity Date (irrespective of whether foreclosure proceedings have been
commenced), and shall be in addition to any other fees or sums due hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents. THE YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM REQUIRED BY
THIS SUBPARAGRAPH 9 IS ACKNOWLEDGED BY BORROWER TO BE PARTIAL COMPENSATION TO
LENDER FOR THE COST OF REINVESTING THE LOAN PROCEEDS AND FOR THE LOSS OF THE
CONTRACTED RATE OF RETURN ON THE LOANS. FURTHERMORE, BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
THE LOSS THAT MAY BE SUSTAINED BY LENDER AS A RESULT OF SUCH PREPAYMENT BY
BORROWER IS NOT SUSCEPTIBLE OF PRECISE CALCULATION AND THE YIELD MAINTENANCE
PREMIUM REPRESENTS THE GOOD FAITH EFFORT OF BORROWER AND LENDER TO COMPENSATE
LENDER FOR SUCH LOSS. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PERMITTED IN THIS PARAGRAPH 9,
BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE
SECTION 2954.10 (OR OTHERWISE) TO PREPAY THE LOANS PRIOR TO
-7-
THE LOCK OUT DATE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PENALTY, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR
UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE LOANS, AND AGREES THAT IF, FOR ANY
REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY OF THE LOANS IS MADE PRIOR TO THE LOCK OUT
DATE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR UPON OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY
DATE OF THE LOANS BY LENDER ON ACCOUNT OF ANY DEFAULT BY BORROWER UNDER ANY LOAN
DOCUMENT, THEN BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY THEREWITH, THE
YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM SPECIFIED ABOVE. BY INITIALING THIS PROVISION IN THE
SPACE PROVIDED BELOW, BORROWER DECLARES THAT LENDER'S AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE
LOANS AT THE INTEREST RATE AND ON THE OTHER TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN CONSTITUTES
ADEQUATE AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY BORROWER, FOR
THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.

or if Lender's exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any
prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of
that permitted by applicable law, then it is Lender's express intent that all
excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the
principal balance of this Note (without any resulting prepayment penalty or
premium) and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan
Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible
hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any
new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the
recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All
sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention
of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized,
prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt
until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the
Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and
applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents,
it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest
that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned
interest at the time of such acceleration.

12. This Note may not be modified, amended, waived,
extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to

waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought. Whenever used,

words "LENDER" and "BORROWER" shall include their respective successors,

one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or
party shall be joint and several.
13. Except as provided in the Loan Documents, Borrower
and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the
Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of
dishonor, protest, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of intent to

for the Debt or any person liable for payment of the Debt, no extension of time

Lender and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive,
extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Borrower, and
any other person or party who may become liable under the Loan Documents for the
payment of all or any part of the Debt.
14. The provisions of paragraph 57 of the Deed of Trust
are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
15. (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to Lender
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall, provided that Lender
complies with the requirements of paragraph 15c) hereof, be made free and clear
of, and without deduction for, any and all present or future taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or liabilities with respect thereto,
except for the following, for which Borrower (and its direct or indirect members
or other constituent members or partners) shall not be responsible: (i) taxes
imposed on or measured by Lender's net income or net receipts; or (ii) franchise
taxes imposed on Lender by the jurisdiction in which (A) Lender is organized,
(B) Lender is "doing business" (unless such determination of "doing business" is
made solely as a result of Lender's interest in the Loans and the security
therefor), or (C) Lender's applicable lending office is located (all such taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and liabilities (except
those described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii)) being hereinafter
referred to as "LOAN TAXES"). If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or
withhold any Loan Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, then (1) any such sum payable hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making
all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this paragraph 15) Lender receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph
15 been made, (2) Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (3)
Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing
authority in accordance with applicable law. Borrower (but not its direct or
indirect members or other constituent members or partners) will indemnify Lender
for the full amount of any Loan Taxes (including, without limitation, any Loan
Taxes (as well as taxes described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the second
preceding sentence) imposed by any jurisdiction on any amounts payable under
-11-
this paragraph 15) paid or payable by Lender and any liability (including,
without limitation, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Loan Taxes were correctly or legally
asserted. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered
to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The agreements
and obligations of Borrower contained in this paragraph 15 shall survive the
payment in full of principal and interest under this Note.
(b) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment
of Loan Taxes withheld by Borrower in respect of any payment to Lender, Borrower
will furnish to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt or other
evidence satisfactory to Lender evidencing payment thereof.
(c) If Lender is a U.S. Person (other than the Lender
originally named herein), Lender shall deliver to Borrower, upon request, a Form
W-9 (unless it establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of Borrower that it is
otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other
withholding tax). If Lender is not a U.S. Person, Lender shall deliver to
Borrower, upon request, (a) two duly completed and signed copies of either
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming an exemption from or a reduction
in United States withholding tax under an applicable treaty) or its successor
form or Form W-8ECI (claiming an exemption from United States withholding tax as
effectively connected income) or its successor form and related applicable
forms, as the case may be; or (b) in the case of a foreign Lender that is not a
"bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and that cannot
comply with the requirements of clause (a) above, (x) a statement to the effect
that such Lender is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of United
States Taxes under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and (y) two duly
completed and signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or
successor and related applicable forms. If Lender is not a U.S. Person, Lender
further undertakes to deliver to Borrower additional forms described in clause
(a) or (b) of the preceding sentence (or any successor forms) or other manner of
certification, as the case may be, (A) on or before the date that any such form
expires or becomes obsolete, (B) after the occurrence of any event requiring a
change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower, and (C)
such extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower,
certifying that Lender is entitled to receive payments hereunder without
deduction or withholding of any Loan Taxes. However, in the event that any
change in law, rule, regulation, treaty or directive, or in the interpretation
or application thereof (a "LAW CHANGE"), has occurred prior to the date on which
any delivery pursuant to the preceding sentence would otherwise be required
which renders such form inapplicable, or which would prevent Lender from duly
completing and delivering any such form, or if such Law Change results in Lender
being unable to deliver a Form W-9 (or other satisfactory evidence that it is
otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other
withholding tax), Lender shall not be obligated to deliver such forms but shall,
promptly following such Law Change, but in any event prior to the time the next
payment hereunder is due following such Law Change, advise Borrower in writing
whether it is capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding
of Loan Taxes. In the event of such Law Change, Borrower shall have the
obligation to make Lender whole and to "gross-up" under paragraph 15(a) hereof,
despite the failure by Lender to deliver such forms.
(d) If Lender receives a refund in respect of Loan Taxes
paid by Borrower, it shall promptly pay such refund, together with any other
amounts paid by Borrower pursuant to
-12-
paragraph 15(a) hereof in connection with such refunded Loan Taxes, to Borrower;
provided, however, that Borrower agrees to promptly return such refund to Lender
if it receives notice from Lender that it is required to repay such refund.
Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require Lender to seek any refund
and Lender shall have no obligation to Borrower to do so.
(e) All amounts payable under this paragraph 15 shall
constitute additional interest hereunder and shall be secured by the Deed of
Trust and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this paragraph 15 shall
survive any payment or prepayment of the Loans and any foreclosure or
satisfaction of the Deed of Trust.
16. Borrower represents that Borrower has full power,
authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
pursuant to the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents and that
the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and
binding obligations of Borrower subject only to bankruptcy laws, general

(vi) Borrower shall deliver to Lender a letter
issued by each of the applicable Rating Agencies (as defined in the Cash

(x) Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and

and duties under and to the Notes, together with the Defeasance Collateral to
such Successor Borrower. Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations
under the Notes and the Security Agreement and Borrower shall be relieved of its
obligations under such documents and the Loan Documents (except for any
environmental indemnities or other obligations that survive repayment of the
Loans). Borrower shall pay a minimum of $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as

Event of Default has occurred and is continuing no Yield Maintenance Premium or
other premium shall be due or payable in connection with any such mandatory

(g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph
9(f) hereof, the Yield Maintenance Premium shall be due, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, under any and all circumstances where all or any portion of
the Loans are paid prior to the Lock Out Date as a result of an involuntary
prepayment or a voluntary prepayment, even if such prepayment results from
Lender's exercise of its rights upon Borrower's default and acceleration of the
Maturity Date (irrespective of whether foreclosure proceedings have been
commenced), and shall be in addition to any other fees or sums due hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents. THE YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM REQUIRED BY
THIS SUBPARAGRAPH 9 IS ACKNOWLEDGED BY BORROWER TO BE PARTIAL COMPENSATION TO
LENDER FOR THE COST OF REINVESTING THE LOAN PROCEEDS AND FOR THE LOSS OF THE
CONTRACTED RATE OF RETURN ON THE LOANS. FURTHERMORE, BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
THE LOSS THAT MAY BE SUSTAINED BY LENDER AS A RESULT OF SUCH PREPAYMENT BY
BORROWER IS NOT SUSCEPTIBLE OF PRECISE CALCULATION AND THE YIELD MAINTENANCE
PREMIUM REPRESENTS THE GOOD FAITH EFFORT OF BORROWER AND LENDER TO COMPENSATE
LENDER FOR SUCH LOSS. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PERMITTED IN THIS PARAGRAPH 9,
BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE
SECTION 2954.10 (OR OTHERWISE) TO PREPAY THE LOANS PRIOR TO
-7-
THE LOCK OUT DATE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PENALTY, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR
UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE LOANS, AND AGREES THAT IF, FOR ANY
REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY OF THE LOANS IS MADE PRIOR TO THE LOCK OUT
DATE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR UPON OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY
DATE OF THE LOANS BY LENDER ON ACCOUNT OF ANY DEFAULT BY BORROWER UNDER ANY LOAN
DOCUMENT, THEN BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY THEREWITH, THE
YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM SPECIFIED ABOVE. BY INITIALING THIS PROVISION IN THE
SPACE PROVIDED BELOW, BORROWER DECLARES THAT LENDER'S AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE
LOANS AT THE INTEREST RATE AND ON THE OTHER TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN CONSTITUTES
ADEQUATE AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY BORROWER, FOR
THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.

(d) Not later than each December 15 during the term of
the Loans, Borrower shall submit to Lender a detailed budget (an "ANNUAL
BUDGET") for the Trust Property covering the calendar year commencing on the

approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, (provided that Borrower shall have
the option to submit to Lender a revised budget not later than June 30 of each
year during the term of the Loans to adjust such budget on the basis of the
actual results of Borrower to such point in such calendar year) (each such
budget, when so approved, is referred to as an "APPROVED ANNUAL BUDGET"). Until
such time that Lender approves a proposed Annual Budget, Borrower may operate
under the most recently Approved Annual Budget (adjusted to reflect actual
increases in real estate taxes, insurance premiums, utilities expenses, labor
costs, interest and other fixed costs with respect to the ownership, operation
and financing of the Trust Property).
11. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of
Borrower and Lender at all times to comply with applicable state law or
applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to
contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest
than under state law) and that this paragraph (and the similar paragraph
contained in the Deed of Trust) shall control every other covenant and agreement
in the Notes and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or
federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount
called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or
contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Debt,
or if Lender's exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any
prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of
that permitted by applicable law, then it is Lender's express intent that all
excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the
principal balance of this Note (without any resulting prepayment penalty or
premium) and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan
Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible
hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any
new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the
recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All
sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention
of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized,
prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt
until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the
Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and
applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents,
it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest
that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned
interest at the time of such acceleration.
-10-
12. This Note may not be modified, amended, waived,
extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to
act on the part of Borrower or Lender, but only by an agreement in writing
signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment,
waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought. Whenever used,
the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the
words "LENDER" and "BORROWER" shall include their respective successors,
assigns, heirs, executors and administrators. If Borrower consists of more than
one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or
party shall be joint and several.
13. Except as provided in the Loan Documents, Borrower
and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the
Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of
dishonor, protest, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of intent to
accelerate the maturity hereof and of acceleration. No release of any security
for the Debt or any person liable for payment of the Debt, no extension of time
for payment of this Note or any installment hereof, and no alteration, amendment
or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents made by agreement between
Lender and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive,
extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Borrower, and
any other person or party who may become liable under the Loan Documents for the
payment of all or any part of the Debt.
14. The provisions of paragraph 57 of the Deed of Trust
are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
15. (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to Lender
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall, provided that Lender
complies with the requirements of paragraph 15c) hereof, be made free and clear
of, and without deduction for, any and all present or future taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or liabilities with respect thereto,
except for the following, for which Borrower (and its direct or indirect members
or other constituent members or partners) shall not be responsible: (i) taxes
imposed on or measured by Lender's net income or net receipts; or (ii) franchise
taxes imposed on Lender by the jurisdiction in which (A) Lender is organized,
(B) Lender is "doing business" (unless such determination of "doing business" is
made solely as a result of Lender's interest in the Loans and the security
therefor), or (C) Lender's applicable lending office is located (all such taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and liabilities (except
those described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii)) being hereinafter
referred to as "LOAN TAXES"). If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or
withhold any Loan Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, then (1) any such sum payable hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making
all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this paragraph 15) Lender receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph
15 been made, (2) Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (3)
Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing
authority in accordance with applicable law. Borrower (but not its direct or
indirect members or other constituent members or partners) will indemnify Lender
for the full amount of any Loan Taxes (including, without limitation, any Loan
Taxes (as well as taxes described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the second
preceding sentence) imposed by any jurisdiction on any amounts payable under
-11-
this paragraph 15) paid or payable by Lender and any liability (including,
without limitation, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Loan Taxes were correctly or legally
asserted. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered
to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The agreements
and obligations of Borrower contained in this paragraph 15 shall survive the
payment in full of principal and interest under this Note.
(b) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment
of Loan Taxes withheld by Borrower in respect of any payment to Lender, Borrower
will furnish to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt or other
evidence satisfactory to Lender evidencing payment thereof.
(c) If Lender is a U.S. Person (other than the Lender
originally named herein), Lender shall deliver to Borrower, upon request, a Form
W-9 (unless it establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of Borrower that it is
otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other
withholding tax). If Lender is not a U.S. Person, Lender shall deliver to
Borrower, upon request, (a) two duly completed and signed copies of either
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming an exemption from or a reduction
in United States withholding tax under an applicable treaty) or its successor
form or Form W-8ECI (claiming an exemption from United States withholding tax as
effectively connected income) or its successor form and related applicable
forms, as the case may be; or (b) in the case of a foreign Lender that is not a
"bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and that cannot
comply with the requirements of clause (a) above, (x) a statement to the effect
that such Lender is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of United
States Taxes under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and (y) two duly
completed and signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W- 8BEN or
successor and related applicable forms. If Lender is not a U.S. Person, Lender
further undertakes to deliver to Borrower additional forms described in clause
(a) or (b) of the preceding sentence (or any successor forms) or other manner of
certification, as the case may be, (A) on or before the date that any such form
expires or becomes obsolete, (B) after the occurrence of any event requiring a
change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower, and (C)
such extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower,
certifying that Lender is entitled to receive payments hereunder without
deduction or withholding of any Loan Taxes. However, in the event that any
change in law, rule, regulation, treaty or directive, or in the interpretation
or application thereof (a "LAW CHANGE"), has occurred prior to the date on which
any delivery pursuant to the preceding sentence would otherwise be required
which renders such form inapplicable, or which would prevent Lender from duly
completing and delivering any such form, or if such Law Change results in Lender
being unable to deliver a Form W-9 (or other satisfactory evidence that it is
otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other
withholding tax), Lender shall not be obligated to deliver such forms but shall,
promptly following such Law Change, but in any event prior to the time the next
payment hereunder is due following such Law Change, advise Borrower in writing
whether it is capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding
of Loan Taxes. In the event of such Law Change, Borrower shall have the
obligation to make Lender whole and to "gross-up" under paragraph 15(a) hereof,
despite the failure by Lender to deliver such forms.
(d) If Lender receives a refund in respect of Loan Taxes
paid by Borrower, it shall promptly pay such refund, together with any other
amounts paid by Borrower pursuant to
-12-
paragraph 15(a) hereof in connection with such refunded Loan Taxes, to Borrower;
provided, however, that Borrower agrees to promptly return such refund to Lender
if it receives notice from Lender that it is required to repay such refund.
Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require Lender to seek any refund
and Lender shall have no obligation to Borrower to do so.
(e) All amounts payable under this paragraph 15 shall
constitute additional interest hereunder and shall be secured by the Deed of
Trust and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this paragraph 15 shall
survive any payment or prepayment of the Loans and any foreclosure or
satisfaction of the Deed of Trust.
16. Borrower represents that Borrower has full power,
authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
pursuant to the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents and that
the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and
binding obligations of Borrower subject only to bankruptcy laws, general
principals of equity, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium,
receivership or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of
creditors.
17. All notices or other communications required or
permitted to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in
the Deed of Trust directed to the parties at their respective addresses as
provided therein.
18. BORROWER HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY
OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD
TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN

AND VOLUNTARILY BY BORROWER, AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH
INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE
ACCRUE. LENDER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY
PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY BORROWER.

(vi) Borrower shall deliver to Lender a letter

Event of Default has occurred and is continuing no Yield Maintenance Premium or
other premium shall be due or payable in connection with any such mandatory
prepayment whenever paid.
(g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph
9(f) hereof, the Yield Maintenance Premium shall be due, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, under any and all circumstances where all or any portion of
the Loans are paid prior to the Lock Out Date as a result of an involuntary

Lender's exercise of its rights upon Borrower's default and acceleration of the
Maturity Date (irrespective of whether foreclosure proceedings have been
commenced), and shall be in addition to any other fees or sums due hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents. THE YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM REQUIRED BY
THIS SUBPARAGRAPH 9 IS ACKNOWLEDGED BY BORROWER TO BE PARTIAL COMPENSATION TO
LENDER FOR THE COST OF REINVESTING THE LOAN PROCEEDS AND FOR THE LOSS OF THE
CONTRACTED RATE OF RETURN ON THE LOANS. FURTHERMORE, BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
THE LOSS THAT MAY BE SUSTAINED BY LENDER AS A RESULT OF SUCH PREPAYMENT BY
BORROWER IS NOT SUSCEPTIBLE OF PRECISE CALCULATION AND THE YIELD MAINTENANCE
PREMIUM REPRESENTS THE GOOD FAITH EFFORT OF BORROWER AND LENDER TO COMPENSATE
LENDER FOR SUCH LOSS. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PERMITTED IN THIS PARAGRAPH 9,
BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL
7
CODE SECTION 2954.10 (OR OTHERWISE) TO PREPAY THE LOANS PRIOR TO THE LOCK OUT
DATE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PENALTY, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR UPON
ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE LOAN, AND AGREES THAT IF, FOR ANY
REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY OF THE LOANS IS MADE PRIOR TO THE LOCK OUT
DATE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR UPON OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY
DATE OF THE LOANS BY LENDER ON ACCOUNT OF ANY DEFAULT BY BORROWER UNDER ANY LOAN
DOCUMENT, THEN BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY THEREWITH, THE
YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM SPECIFIED ABOVE. BY INITIALING THIS PROVISION IN THE
SPACE PROVIDED BELOW, BORROWER DECLARES THAT LENDER'S AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE
LOANS AT THE INTEREST RATE AND ON THE OTHER TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN CONSTITUTES
ADEQUATE AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY BORROWER, FOR
THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.

BUDGET") for the Trust Property covering the calendar year commencing on the

the option to submit to Lender a revised budget not later than June 30 of each
year during the term of the Loans to adjust such budget on the basis of the
actual results of Borrower to such point in such calendar year) (each such
budget, when so approved, is referred to as an "APPROVED ANNUAL BUDGET"). Until

and financing of the Trust Property).
11. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the
intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply with applicable state law
or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to
contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest
than under state law) and that this paragraph (and the similar paragraph
contained in the Deed of Trust) shall control every other covenant and agreement
in the Notes and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or
federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount
called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or
contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Debt,
or if Lender's exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any
prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of
that permitted by applicable law, then it is Lender's express intent that all
excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the
principal balance of this Note (without any resulting prepayment penalty or
premium) and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan
Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible
hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any
new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the
recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All
sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention
of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized,
prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt
until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the
Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and
applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents,
it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest
10
that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned
interest at the time of such acceleration.
12. This Note may not be modified, amended, waived,
extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to
act on the part of Borrower or Lender, but only by an agreement in writing

14. The provisions of paragraph 57 of the Deed of Trust
are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
15. (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to Lender
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall, provided that Lender
complies with the requirements of paragraph 15(c) hereof, be made free and clear
of, and without deduction for, any and all present or future taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or liabilities with respect thereto,
except for the following, for which Borrower (and its direct or indirect members
or other constituent members or partners) shall not be responsible: (i) taxes
imposed on or measured by Lender's net income or net receipts; or (ii) franchise
taxes imposed on Lender by the jurisdiction in which (A) Lender is organized,
(B) Lender is "doing business" (unless such determination of "doing business" is
made solely as a result of Lender's interest in the Loans and the security
therefor), or (C) Lender's applicable lending office is located (all such taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and liabilities (except
those described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii)) being hereinafter
referred to as "LOAN TAXES"). If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or
withhold any Loan Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, then (1) any such sum payable hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making
all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this paragraph 15), Lender receives an amount
equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph
15) been made, (2) Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (3)
Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing
authority in accordance with applicable law. Borrower (but not its direct or
indirect members or other
11
constituent members or partners) will indemnify Lender for the full amount of
any Loan Taxes (including, without limitation, any Loan Taxes (as well as taxes
described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the second preceding sentence) imposed by
any jurisdiction on any amounts payable under this paragraph 15) paid or payable
by Lender and any liability (including, without limitation, penalties, interest
and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Loan Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. A certificate as to the amount of
such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. The agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in
this paragraph 15 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest
under this Note.
(b) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment
of Loan Taxes withheld by Borrower in respect of any payment to Lender, Borrower
will furnish to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt or other
evidence satisfactory to Lender evidencing payment thereof.
(c) If Lender is a U.S. Person (other than the Lender
originally named herein), Lender shall deliver to Borrower, upon request, a Form
W-9 (unless it establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of Borrower that it is
otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other
withholding tax). If Lender is not a U.S. Person, Lender shall deliver to
Borrower, upon request, (a) two duly completed and signed copies of either
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming an exemption from or a reduction
in United States withholding tax under an applicable treaty) or its successor
form or Form W-8ECI (claiming an exemption from United States withholding tax as
effectively connected income) or its successor form and related applicable
forms, as the case may be; or (b) in the case of a foreign Lender that is not a
"bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and that cannot
comply with the requirements of clause (a) above, (x) a statement to the effect
that such Lender is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of United
States Taxes under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and (y) two duly
completed and signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W- 8BEN or
successor and related applicable forms. If Lender is not a U.S. Person, Lender
further undertakes to deliver to Borrower additional forms described in clause
(a) or (b) of the preceding sentence (or any successor forms) or other manner of
certification, as the case may be, (A) on or before the date that any such form
expires or becomes obsolete, (B) after the occurrence of any event requiring a
change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower, and (C)
such extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower,
certifying that Lender is entitled to receive payments hereunder without
deduction or withholding of any Loan Taxes. However, in the event that any
change in law, rule, regulation, treaty or directive, or in the interpretation
or application thereof (a "LAW CHANGE"), has occurred prior to the date on which
any delivery pursuant to the preceding sentence would otherwise be required
which renders such form inapplicable, or which would prevent Lender from duly
completing and delivering any such form, or if such Law Change results in Lender
being unable to deliver a Form W-9 (or other satisfactory evidence that it is
otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other
withholding tax), Lender shall not be obligated to deliver such forms but shall,
promptly following such Law Change, but in any event prior to the time the next
payment hereunder is due following such Law Change, advise Borrower in writing
whether it is capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding
of Loan Taxes. In the event of such Law Change, Borrower shall have the
obligation to make Lender whole and to "gross-up" under paragraph 15(a) hereof,
despite the failure by Lender to deliver such forms.
12
(d) If Lender receives a refund in respect of Loan Taxes
paid by Borrower, it shall promptly pay such refund, together with any other
amounts paid by Borrower pursuant to paragraph 15(a) hereof in connection with
such refunded Loan Taxes, to Borrower; provided, however, that Borrower agrees
to promptly return such refund to Lender if it receives notice from Lender that
it is required to repay such refund. Nothing contained herein shall be construed
to require Lender to seek any refund and Lender shall have no obligation to
Borrower to do so.
(e) All amounts payable under this paragraph 15 shall
constitute additional interest hereunder and shall be secured by the Deed of
Trust and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this paragraph 15 shall
survive any payment or prepayment of the Loans and any foreclosure or
satisfaction of the Deed of Trust.
16. Borrower represents that Borrower has full power,
authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
pursuant to the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents and that
the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and
binding obligations of Borrower subject only to bankruptcy laws, general
principals of equity, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium,
receivership or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of
creditors.
17. All notices or other communications required or
permitted to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in
the Deed of Trust directed to the parties at their respective addresses as
provided therein.

OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY

"DEFEASANCE COLLATERAL ACCOUNT") which shall at all times be an Eligible Account
(as defined in the Cash Management Agreement). The Defeasance Collateral Account
shall contain only (i) Defeasance Collateral, and (ii) cash from interest and
principal paid on the Defeasance Collateral. All cash from interest and
principal payments paid on the Defeasance Collateral up to the Monthly Payment
Amount shall be paid over to Lender on each Payment Date and applied to accrued
and unpaid interest; provided that prior to any such Payment Date, all cash from
interest and principal payments paid on the Defeasance Collateral may be
invested in Permitted Investments selected by Borrower. Any cash from interest
and principal paid on the Defeasance Collateral not needed to pay accrued and
unpaid interest shall be retained in the Defeasance Collateral Account as
additional collateral for the Loans and may be invested in Permitted Investments
selected by Borrower. Borrower shall cause the Eligible Institution at which the
Defeasance Collateral is deposited to enter into an agreement with Borrower and
Lender, satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, pursuant to which such
Eligible Institution shall agree to hold and distribute the Defeasance
Collateral in accordance with this Note. The Successor Borrower shall be the
owner of the Defeasance Collateral Account and shall report all income accrued
on Defeasance Collateral for federal, state
6
and local income tax purposes in its income tax return. Borrower shall prepay
all cost and expenses associated with opening and maintaining the Defeasance
Collateral Account. Lender shall not in any way be liable by reason of any
insufficiency in the Defeasance Collateral Account.
(e) In connection with a Defeasance Event under this
Paragraph 9, Borrower shall, if required by the Rating Agencies or if Borrower
elects to do so, establish or designate a successor entity (the "SUCCESSOR
BORROWER") which shall be a Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity and which
shall be approved by the Rating Agencies. Any such Successor Borrower may, at
Borrower's option, be an Affiliate of Borrower unless the Rating Agencies shall
require otherwise. Borrower shall transfer and assign all obligations, rights
and duties under and to the Notes, together with the Defeasance Collateral to
such Successor Borrower. Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations
under the Notes and the Security Agreement and Borrower shall be relieved of its
obligations under such documents and the Loan Documents (except for any
environmental indemnities or other obligations that survive repayment of the
Loans). Borrower shall pay a minimum of $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as
consideration for assuming the obligations under the Notes and the Security
Agreement. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender,
including Lender's reasonable attorney's fees and expenses, incurred in
connection therewith.
(f) Mandatory prepayments made in connection with the
application pursuant to the Deed of Trust of insurance proceeds or condemnation
awards shall be paid in the amounts and at the times specified in the Deed of
Trust, and, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, provided that no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing no Yield Maintenance Premium or
other premium shall be due or payable in connection with any such mandatory
prepayment whenever paid.
(g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph
9(f) hereof, the Yield Maintenance Premium shall be due, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, under any and all circumstances where all or any portion of
the Loans are paid prior to the Lock Out Date as a result of an involuntary
prepayment or a voluntary prepayment, even if such prepayment results from
Lender's exercise of its rights upon Borrower's default and acceleration of the
Maturity Date (irrespective of whether foreclosure proceedings have been
commenced), and shall be in addition to any other fees or sums due hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents. THE YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM REQUIRED BY
THIS SUBPARAGRAPH 9 IS ACKNOWLEDGED BY BORROWER TO BE PARTIAL COMPENSATION TO
LENDER FOR THE COST OF REINVESTING THE LOAN PROCEEDS AND FOR THE LOSS OF THE
CONTRACTED RATE OF RETURN ON THE LOANS. FURTHERMORE, BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
THE LOSS THAT MAY BE SUSTAINED BY LENDER AS A RESULT OF SUCH PREPAYMENT BY
BORROWER IS NOT SUSCEPTIBLE OF PRECISE CALCULATION AND THE YIELD MAINTENANCE
PREMIUM REPRESENTS THE GOOD FAITH EFFORT OF BORROWER AND LENDER TO COMPENSATE
LENDER FOR SUCH LOSS. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PERMITTED IN THIS PARAGRAPH 9,
BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE
SECTION 2954.10 (OR OTHERWISE) TO PREPAY THE LOANS PRIOR TO THE LOCK OUT DATE,
IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PENALTY, WHETHER
7
VOLUNTARILY OR UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE LOAN, AND AGREES
THAT IF, FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY OF THE LOANS IS MADE PRIOR TO
THE LOCK OUT DATE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR UPON OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF
THE MATURITY DATE OF THE LOANS BY LENDER ON ACCOUNT OF ANY DEFAULT BY BORROWER
UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, THEN BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY
THEREWITH, THE YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM SPECIFIED ABOVE. BY INITIALING THIS
PROVISION IN THE SPACE PROVIDED BELOW, BORROWER DECLARES THAT LENDER'S AGREEMENT
TO MAKE THE LOANS AT THE INTEREST RATE AND ON THE OTHER TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN
CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY
BORROWER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
___________

otherwise affect Borrower's obligations to make payments of the Monthly Payment
Amount, payments to the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund, the Replacement/Leasing
Escrow Fund and any other amounts due hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, whether or not Rents are available to make such payments.
(c) Intentionally Omitted.
(d) Not later than each December 15 during the term of
the Loans, Borrower shall submit to Lender a detailed budget (an "ANNUAL
BUDGET") for the Trust Property covering the calendar year commencing on the
following January 1, each of which budgets shall be subject to Lender's
approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, (provided that Borrower shall have
the option to submit to Lender a revised budget not later than June 30 of each
year during the term of the Loans to adjust such budget on the basis of the
actual results of Borrower to such point in such calendar year) (each such
budget, when so approved, is referred to as an "APPROVED ANNUAL BUDGET"). Until
such time that Lender approves a proposed Annual Budget, Borrower may operate
under the most recently Approved Annual Budget (adjusted to reflect actual
increases in real estate taxes, insurance premiums, utilities expenses, labor
costs, interest and other fixed costs with respect to the ownership, operation
and financing of the Trust Property).
11. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the
intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply with applicable state law
or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to
contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest
than under state law) and that this paragraph (and the similar paragraph
contained in the Deed of Trust) shall control every other covenant and agreement
in the Notes and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or
federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount
called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or
contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Debt,
or if Lender's exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any
prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of
that permitted by applicable law, then it is Lender's express intent that all
excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the
principal balance of this Note (without any resulting prepayment penalty or
premium) and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan
Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible
hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any
new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the
recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All
sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention
of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized,
prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt
until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the
Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and
applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents,
it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest
that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned
interest at the time of such acceleration.
10
12. This Note may not be modified, amended, waived,
extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to
act on the part of Borrower or Lender, but only by an agreement in writing
signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment,
waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought. Whenever used,
the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the
words "LENDER" and "BORROWER" shall include their respective successors,
assigns, heirs, executors and administrators. If Borrower consists of more than
one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or
party shall be joint and several.
13. Except as provided in the Loan Documents, Borrower
and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the
Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of
dishonor, protest, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of intent to
accelerate the maturity hereof and of acceleration. No release of any security
for the Debt or any person liable for payment of the Debt, no extension of time
for payment of this Note or any installment hereof, and no alteration, amendment
or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents made by agreement between
Lender and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive,
extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Borrower, and
any other person or party who may become liable under the Loan Documents for the
payment of all or any part of the Debt.
14. The provisions of paragraph 57 of the Deed of Trust
are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
15. (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to Lender
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall, provided that Lender
complies with the requirements of paragraph 15(c) hereof, be made free and clear
of, and without deduction for, any and all present or future taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or liabilities with respect thereto,
except for the following, for which Borrower (and its direct or indirect members
or other constituent members or partners) shall not be responsible: (i) taxes
imposed on or measured by Lender's net income or net receipts; or (ii) franchise
taxes imposed on Lender by the jurisdiction in which (A) Lender is organized,
(B) Lender is "doing business" (unless such determination of "doing business" is
made solely as a result of Lender's interest in the Loans and the security
therefor), or (C) Lender's applicable lending office is located (all such taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and liabilities (except
those described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii)) being hereinafter
referred to as "LOAN TAXES"). If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or
withhold any Loan Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, then (1) any such sum payable hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making
all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this paragraph 15), Lender receives an amount
equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph
15) been made, (2) Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (3)
Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing
authority in accordance with applicable law. Borrower (but not its direct or
indirect members or other constituent members or partners) will indemnify Lender
for the full amount of any Loan Taxes (including, without limitation, any Loan
Taxes (as well as taxes described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the second
preceding sentence) imposed by any jurisdiction on any amounts payable under
11
this paragraph 15) paid or payable by Lender and any liability (including,
without limitation, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Loan Taxes were correctly or legally
asserted. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered
to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The agreements
and obligations of Borrower contained in this paragraph 15 shall survive the
payment in full of principal and interest under this Note.
(b) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment
of Loan Taxes withheld by Borrower in respect of any payment to Lender, Borrower
will furnish to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt or other
evidence satisfactory to Lender evidencing payment thereof.
(c) If Lender is a U.S. Person (other than the Lender
originally named herein), Lender shall deliver to Borrower, upon request, a Form
W-9 (unless it establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of Borrower that it is
otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other
withholding tax). If Lender is not a U.S. Person, Lender shall deliver to
Borrower, upon request, (a) two duly completed and signed copies of either
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming an exemption from or a reduction
in United States withholding tax under an applicable treaty) or its successor
form or Form W-8ECI (claiming an exemption from United States withholding tax as
effectively connected income) or its successor form and related applicable
forms, as the case may be; or (b) in the case of a foreign Lender that is not a
"bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and that cannot
comply with the requirements of clause (a) above, (x) a statement to the effect
that such Lender is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of United
States Taxes under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and (y) two duly
completed and signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W- 8BEN or
successor and related applicable forms. If Lender is not a U.S. Person, Lender
further undertakes to deliver to Borrower additional forms described in clause
(a) or (b) of the preceding sentence (or any successor forms) or other manner of
certification, as the case may be, (A) on or before the date that any such form
expires or becomes obsolete, (B) after the occurrence of any event requiring a
change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower, and (C)
such extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower,
certifying that Lender is entitled to receive payments hereunder without
deduction or withholding of any Loan Taxes. However, in the event that any
change in law, rule, regulation, treaty or directive, or in the interpretation
or application thereof (a "LAW CHANGE"), has occurred prior to the date on which
any delivery pursuant to the preceding sentence would otherwise be required
which renders such form inapplicable, or which would prevent Lender from duly
completing and delivering any such form, or if such Law Change results in Lender
being unable to deliver a Form W-9 (or other satisfactory evidence that it is
otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other
withholding tax), Lender shall not be obligated to deliver such forms but shall,
promptly following such Law Change, but in any event prior to the time the next
payment hereunder is due following such Law Change, advise Borrower in writing
whether it is capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding
of Loan Taxes. In the event of such Law Change, Borrower shall have the
obligation to make Lender whole and to "gross-up" under paragraph 15(a) hereof,
despite the failure by Lender to deliver such forms.
(d) If Lender receives a refund in respect of Loan Taxes
paid by Borrower, it shall promptly pay such refund, together with any other
amounts paid by Borrower pursuant to
12
paragraph 15(a) hereof in connection with such refunded Loan Taxes, to Borrower;
provided, however, that Borrower agrees to promptly return such refund to Lender
if it receives notice from Lender that it is required to repay such refund.
Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require Lender to seek any refund
and Lender shall have no obligation to Borrower to do so.
(e) All amounts payable under this paragraph 15 shall
constitute additional interest hereunder and shall be secured by the Deed of
Trust and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this paragraph 15 shall
survive any payment or prepayment of the Loans and any foreclosure or
satisfaction of the Deed of Trust.
16. Borrower represents that Borrower has full power,
authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
pursuant to the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents and that
the Notes, the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and
binding obligations of Borrower subject only to bankruptcy laws, general
principals of equity, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium,
receivership or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of
creditors.
17. All notices or other communications required or
permitted to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in
the Deed of Trust directed to the parties at their respective addresses as
provided therein.
18. BORROWER HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY
OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD
TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN
CONNECTION THEREWITH. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY
AND VOLUNTARILY BY BORROWER, AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH
INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE
ACCRUE. LENDER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY
PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY BORROWER.
