respectively:
3.3 Escrow Deposit. Pursuant to the Development Loan

evidenced by the Development Loan Agreement. In the event the
Escrow Deposit is applied to the loan evidenced in part by the

to reimburse the Guarantor for the portion of the Escrow Deposit
and the Interest Spread which has not been paid by the
Partnership to the Guarantor.
