Notwithstanding subsection (h) above, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indemnitors shall be entitled to assume the defense of any action for which indemnification is sought hereunder to the extent permitted by Section 9.03(c) of the Loan Agreement.

4. Right of Entry and Disclosure of Environmental Reports. Subject to the Leases (as defined in the Mortgage) and the rights of tenants thereunder, Property Borrower hereby grants to Agent its agents, employees, consultants and contractors, an irrevocable license and authorization to enter upon and inspect the Property, at reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice, and to conduct such environmental audits and tests, including, without limitation, subsurface testing, soils and groundwater testing, and other tests which may physically invade the Property, which Agent, in its reasonable discretion, determines are necessary or desirable. With respect to invasive testing, such as soil borings, Agent shall consult with Property Borrower in advance of such tests. Agent agrees, however, that it shall not conduct any such audits, unless an Event of Default exists under the Loan Documents or Agent has reason to believe that such audit may disclose the Release, Threat of Release and/or presence of Hazardous Material or unless any previously conducted environmental audit deems further testing necessary. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Property Borrower agrees that Agent shall have the right to appoint a receiver to enforce this right to enter and inspect the Property to the extent such authority is provided under applicable law.

Agent hereby reserves the right, and Indemnitors hereby expressly authorize Agent to make available to any party in connection with a sale of the Property any and all reports, whether prepared by Agent or prepared by Property Borrower and provided to Agent (collectively, the “Environmental Reports”) which Agent may have with respect to the Property. Each Indemnitor consents to Agent notifying any party under such circumstances of the availability of any or all of the Environmental Reports and the information contained therein. Each Indemnitor further agrees that Agent may disclose such Environmental Reports to any governmental agency or authority if they reasonably believe that they are required to disclose any matter contained therein to such agency or authority; provided that Agent shall give Property

- 6 -

Borrower at least 48 hours prior written notice before so doing. Each Indemnitor acknowledges that Agent cannot control or otherwise assure the truthfulness or accuracy of the Environmental Reports, and that the release of the Environmental Reports, or any information contained therein, to prospective bidders at any foreclosure sale of the Property may have a material and adverse effect upon the amount which a party may bid at such sale. Each Indemnitor agrees that Agent (i) owes no duty of care to protect the Indemnitors or any other Person from, or to inform the Indemnitors or any other Person of, any Hazardous Material or any other environmental condition affecting the Property and (ii) shall not have any liability whatsoever as a result of delivering any or all of the Environmental Reports or any information contained therein to any Indemnitor or any other Person, and each Indemnitor hereby releases and forever discharges Agent and Lenders from any and all claims, damages, or causes of action arising out of connected with or incidental to the Environmental Reports or the delivery thereof.

The selection of the Remedial Work contractors and consulting environmental engineer, the contracts entered into with such parties, any disclosures to or agreements with any public or private agencies or parties relating to Remedial Work and the written plan for the Remedial Work (and any changes thereto) shall each be subject to Agent’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In addition, Indemnitors shall submit to Agent, promptly upon receipt or preparation, copies of any and all reports, studies, analyses, correspondence, governmental comments or approvals, proposed removal or other Remedial Work contracts and similar information prepared or received by Indemnitors in connection with any Remedial Work, or Hazardous Material relating to the Property. All costs and expenses of such Remedial Work shall be paid by Indemnitors, including, without limitation, the charges of the Remedial Work contractors and the consulting environmental engineer, any taxes or penalties

- 7 -

assessed in connection with the Remedial Work and Agent’s reasonable fees and out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with monitoring or review of such Remedial Work. Agent shall have the right but not the obligation to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any legal proceedings or actions initiated in connection with any Environmental Proceedings.

In addition, in the event any Hazardous Material is removed, or caused to be removed

- 8 -

from the Property, by Indemnitors, Agent or any other person, the number assigned by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to such Environmental Proceedings or any similar identification shall in no event be in the name of Agent or identify the Agent as a generator, arranger or other designation. The foregoing indemnity shall not include Expenses arising solely from (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or any Indemnified Party; (B) Hazardous Material which first exists on the Property following the date on which the Agent takes title to the Property, whether by foreclosure of the Mortgage, deed-in-lieu thereof or otherwise; or (C) Hazardous Material which first exists on the Property following the date on which Agent releases its security interest in the Property.

7. Remedies Upon Default. In addition to any other rights or remedies Agent may have under this Indemnity Agreement, at law or in equity, in the event that Indemnitors shall fail to timely comply with any of the provisions hereof, or in the event that any representation or warranty made herein proves to be false or misleading when made in a material respect, then, in such event, after (i) delivering written notice to Indemnitors, which notice specifically states that Indemnitors have failed to comply with the provisions of this Indemnity Agreement; and (ii) the expiration of the later to occur of the thirty (30) day period after receipt of such notice or the cure period, if any, permitted under any applicable law, rule, regulation or order with which Indemnitors shall have failed to comply, Agent may declare an Event of Default under the Loan Documents and exercise any and all remedies provided for therein, and/or do or cause to be done whatever is reasonably necessary to cause the Property to comply with all Environmental Laws and the cost thereof shall constitute an Expense hereunder and shall become immediately due and payable without notice and with interest thereon at the Default Rate until paid. Subject to the Leases and rights of tenants thereunder, Indemnitors shall give to Agent and its agents and employees access to the Property for the purpose of effecting such compliance and hereby specifically grant to Agent a license, effective upon expiration of the applicable period as described above, if any, to do whatever is necessary to cause the Property to so comply, including, without limitation, to enter the Property and remove therefrom any Hazardous Material in violation of an Environmental Law or otherwise comply with any Environmental Laws.

Indemnitors shall be fully and personally liable for the Environmental Obligations hereunder, and such liability shall not be limited to the original principal amount of the Loan. The Environmental Obligations shall survive the repayment of the Loan and any foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or similar proceedings by or through which Agent, and Lender, or any of their affiliates, nominees, successors or assigns or any other person bidding at a foreclosure sale may obtain title to the Property or any portion thereof, except as otherwise set forth in Section 6 hereof.

Each Indemnitor waives any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of Property Borrower’s or any other Borrower’s assets or to cause Agent to proceed against any of the security for the Loan before proceeding under this Indemnity Agreement against any Indemnitor or to proceed against any Indemnitor in any particular order; each Indemnitor agrees that any payments required to be made hereunder shall become due on demand; each Indemnitor expressly waive and relinquish all rights and remedies (including any rights of subrogation) accorded by applicable law to indemnitors or guarantors.

10. Exercise of Remedies. No failure on the part of Agent to exercise and no delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, at law or in equity, shall operate as a waiver thereof. Agent shall not be estopped to exercise any such right or remedy at any future time because of any such failure or delay; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise of such right or remedy or the exercise of any other right or remedy.

11. Assignment. Agent may assign its interest under this Indemnity Agreement to any successor to its respective interests in the Property or the Loan Documents.
