ARTICLE 4. LEASES

1.13	COVENANTS-LONG TERM LEASES.

Lease Approvals. Borrower may cause Owner to enter into any new lease for space in the Property (“New Lease”) or modify any existing Lease or any New Lease (“Lease Modification”) without Lender’s consent, except that Lender’s prior written consent shall be required if (i) the combined loan to value ratio of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan is greater than or equal to eighty percent (80%) and the New Lease or Lease Modification is for space in the Property that equals or exceeds 20,000 net rentable square feet; (ii) the combined loan to value ratio of the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan, is less than eighty percent (80%) and the Lease Modification relates to either of the ACS Leases and either (x) the effective rent under such Lease (taking into consideration any tenant improvement allowances or other concessions) would be less than ninety (90%) of the current rent under the applicable ACS Lease or (y) such Lease Modification would reduce the term of the applicable ACS Lease to less than three (3) years from the date of the Lease Modification; or (iii) a Default has occurred and is then existing.

Termination Payments. If Borrower or Owner receives any sums in consideration of a termination, modification or amendment of any Lease or any release or discharge of any tenant under any Lease (any such terminated, modified or amended Lease or any Lease from which the tenant is released or discharged is referred to herein as the “Affected Lease”) from any obligation thereunder (each a “Termination Payment”), such amounts shall be held in trust or retained by Borrower or Owner as follows: (i) if such Termination Payment is less than $100,000, such Termination Payment shall be payable to Borrower or Owner, as applicable; (ii) if such Termination Payment is equal to or greater than $100,000, then, subject to the rights of Senior Lender, Borrower or Owner shall deposit such Termination Payment with Lender to be held by Lender as an impound in a pledged account. Borrower shall be permitted to withdraw funds from such impounds to pay leasing costs for re-leasing the space demised under the Affected Lease when such

costs are incurred. In addition, funds in excess of the projected amount necessary to pay for such leasing costs may be withdrawn from such reserve and deposited into the Clearing Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) on a monthly basis in equal monthly disbursements amortized over the remaining term of the Affected Lease. In addition, if (i) the space demised under the Affected Lease is re-leased, in whole or in part, (ii) the new tenant has commenced occupancy and (iii) the tenant has executed and delivered to Lender a tenant estoppel certificate reasonably acceptable to Lender using commercial standards customarily applied by prudent institutional mortgage lenders for similar loans, then a pro rata portion of the remaining amount of impounded funds with respect to such space may be deposited into the Clearing Account based upon the percentage of the subject space which is demised under the new lease (e.g. if fifty percent (50%) of the subject space is re-leased and the conditions is clauses (i) through (iii) are satisfied with respect to such space, then fifty percent (50%) of the remaining amount of funds impounded for such space shall be disbursed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Permitted REIT Distributions shall have priority over the requirement to deposit such funds in any impound account other than funds arising from any termination, modification or amendment of either of the ACS Leases.

Deemed Approval. With respect to any New Lease and/or Lease Modification that requires Lender’s consent as provided above, Lender shall not unreasonably withhold its consent and its failure to respond within five (5) Business Days following Borrower’s request for Lender’s consent shall be deemed to constitute Lender’s consent to any such request.

Other Lease Affirmation Covenants. At all times during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall cause Owner to, at Borrower’s and Owner’s sole cost and expense:

(i)

perform all material obligations of the landlord under the Leases;

(ii)

promptly upon Lender’s request, deliver to Lender a copy of each requested Lease and all amendments thereto and waivers thereof.

Other Lease Negative Covenants. Unless consented to in writing by Lender or otherwise permitted under any other provision of the Loan Documents, Borrower shall not, and shall not permit Owner to:

(i)

grant any tenant under any Lease any option, right of first refusal or other right to purchase all or any portion of the Property under any circumstances;

(ii)

except upon Senior Lender’s request, execute any assignment of landlord’s interest in any Lease; or

(iii)

collect rent or other sums due under any Lease in advance, other than to collect rent one (1) month in advance of the time when it becomes due without notice to Lender of the amount of rents collected in advance given concurrently with such collection.

Any such attempted action in violation of the provisions of this Section shall be null and void.

1.14	ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Within 30 days after request by Lender, Borrower shall deliver to Lender and to any party designated by Lender, estoppel certificates relating to the Leases executed by Owner and by each of the tenants, in form and substance acceptable to Lender;

provided, however, if any tenant shall fail or refuse to so execute and deliver any such estoppel certificate upon request, Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to cause such tenant to execute and deliver such estoppel certificate but such tenant’s continued failure or refusal to do so, despite Borrower’s reasonable efforts, shall not constitute a default by Borrower under this Section.

If a Default has occurred and is continuing at the time, Borrower hereby irrevocably empowers Lender, in the name of Borrower and Owner, as Borrower’s and Owner’s true and lawful attorney in fact, to commence, appear in, defend, prosecute, adjust, compromise and settle all Claims; provided, however, Lender shall not be responsible for any failure to undertake any or all of such actions regardless of the cause of the failure. Subject to Senior Lender’s rights under the Deed of Trust, all awards, proceeds and other sums described herein shall, in all cases, be payable to Lender.

(i)

Condemnation. If the Proceeds are the result of Claims described in clauses 6.11.a (i) or (ii) above, or interest accrued thereon, Lender shall apply the Proceeds in the

following order of priority: First, to Lender’s expenses in settling, prosecuting or defending the Claims; Second, to the repair or restoration of the portion of the Property, if any, not condemned or proposed for condemnation and not otherwise the subject of a claim or award; and Third, to the Obligations in any order without suspending, extending or reducing any obligation of Borrower to make installment payments.

(ii)

Insurance. If the Proceeds are the result of Claims described in clause 6.11.a (iii) above or interest accrued thereon, Lender shall apply the Proceeds in the following order of priority: First, to Lender’s expenses in settling, prosecuting or defending the Claims; Second, to the repair or restoration of the Property; and Third, (aa) if the repair or restoration of the Property has been completed and all costs incurred in connection with the repair or restoration have been paid in full, to Borrower or (bb) in all other circumstances, to the Obligations in any order without suspending, extending or reducing any obligation of Borrower to make installment payments.

(iii)

Restoration. Notwithstanding the foregoing Sections 6.11.b (i) and (ii), Lender shall have no obligation to make any Proceeds available for the repair or restoration of all or any portion of the Property unless and until all the following conditions have been satisfied: (aa) delivery to Lender of the Proceeds plus any additional amount which is needed to pay all costs of the repair or restoration (including, without limitation, taxes, financing charges, insurance and rent during the repair period); (bb) establishment of an arrangement for lien releases and disbursement of funds acceptable to Lender; (cc) delivery to Lender in form and content acceptable to Lender of all of the following: (1) plans and specifications for the work; (2) a contract for the work, signed by a contractor acceptable to Lender; (3) a cost breakdown for the work; (4) if required by Lender, a payment and performance bond for the work; (5) evidence of the continuation of all Leases unless consented to in writing by Lender; (6) evidence that, upon completion of the work, the size, capacity, value, and income coverage ratios for the Property will be at least as great as those which existed immediately before the damage or condemnation occurred; (7) evidence that the work can reasonably be completed on or before that date which is 6 months prior to the Maturity Date; and (8) evidence of the satisfaction of any additional conditions that Lender may reasonably establish to protect Lender’s security. Borrower acknowledges that the specific conditions described above are reasonable.

Application of Proceeds; Default. If a Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of Lender’s receipt of the Proceeds or if a Default occurs at any time thereafter, Lender may, at Lender’s absolute discretion and regardless of any impairment of security or lack of impairment of security, but subject to applicable law governing use of the Proceeds, if any, apply all or any of the Proceeds to Lender’s expenses in settling, prosecuting or defending the Claims and then apply the balance to the Obligations in any order without suspending, extending or reducing any obligation of Borrower to make installment payments, and may release all or any part of the Proceeds to Borrower upon any conditions Lender chooses.

The foregoing provisions of this Section 6.11 shall be subject to Borrower’s right to Permitted REIT Distributions.

1.28	IMPOUNDS; CASH MANAGEMENT.

Post-Default Impounds. If required by Lender at any time while a Default exists, Borrower shall deposit with Lender such amounts (“Post-Default Impounds”) on such dates (determined

by Lender as provided below) as will be sufficient to pay any or all “Costs” (as defined below) specified by Lender to the extent, and only to the extent, required by the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents and further subject to Borrower’s right to receive Permitted REIT Distributions. Lender in its reasonable discretion shall estimate the amount of such Costs that will be payable or required during any period selected by Lender not exceeding 1 year and shall determine the fractional portion thereof that Borrower shall deposit with Lender on each date specified by Lender during such period. If the Post-Default Impounds paid by Borrower are not sufficient to pay the related Costs, Borrower shall deposit with Lender upon demand an amount equal to the deficiency. All Post-Default Impounds shall be payable by Borrower in addition to (but without duplication of) any other Impounds (as defined below). Once any account is opened in which Post-Default Impounds are deposited, such account shall remain open during the term of the Loan. Borrower shall maintain a minimum account balance of $1,000 in any such account at all times any such account remains open.

Springing Interest Reserve. If Lender determines at any time during the term of the Loan that the ratio of the actual debt service on the Loan and the Senior Loan to the actual net operating income of the Property on a cash basis exceeds 1.0 to 1.0, then within thirty (30) days of Lender’s demand, Borrower shall establish an interest reserve (the “Springing Interest Reserve”) under the sole dominion and control of Lender into which Borrower shall make a deposit in an amount equal to the Property Debt Service for a three (3) month period, as determined by Lender. Lender shall have the right to withdraw funds from the Springing Interest Reserve to pay debt service under the Loan and/or the Senior Loan. From and after opening, and until Lender determines that the ratio of actual debt service on the Loan and the Senior Loan to the actual net operating income of the Property on a cash basis is equal to or less than 1.0 to 1.0, Borrower shall continue to deposit funds into the Springing Interest Reserve from time to time within five (5) Business Days of demand by Lender in any amount necessary to cause the balance in the Springing Interest Reserve to equal not less than the actual debt service on the Loan and the Senior Loan for three (3) months, as determined by Lender.

All Impounds. Post-Default Impounds, the Springing Interest Reserve and any other impounds that may be payable by Borrower under the Note are collectively called “Impounds”. All Impounds shall be deposited into one or more segregated accounts maintained by Lender or its servicing agent. Except as otherwise provided in the Note, such account(s) shall not bear interest. Lender shall not be a trustee, special depository or other fiduciary for Borrower with respect to such account, and the existence of such account shall not limit Lender’s rights under this Agreement, any other agreement or any provision of law. If a Default exists, subject to Borrower’s right to receive Permitted REIT Distributions, Lender may apply any or all Impounds to any Obligation and/or to cure such Default, whereupon Borrower shall restore all Impounds so applied and cure all Defaults not cured by such application. The obligations of Borrower hereunder shall not be diminished by deposits of Impounds made by Borrower, except to the extent that such obligations have actually been met by application of such Impounds. Upon any assignment of this Agreement, Lender may assign all Impounds in its possession to Lender’s assignee, whereupon Lender shall be released from all liability with respect to such Impounds. Within 60 days following full repayment of the Obligations (other than as a consequence of foreclosure or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure) or at such earlier time as Lender may elect, Lender shall pay to Borrower all Impounds in its possession, and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto. “Costs” means (i) all taxes and other liabilities payable by Borrower under Section 1.25, (ii) all insurance premiums payable by Borrower under Section 1.26, and (iii) all other costs and expenses for which Impounds are required under the Note. Borrower shall deliver to Lender, promptly upon receipt, all bills for Costs for which Lender has required Post-Default Impounds.

Cash Management.
