Percentage of revolving credit loans requested by the
Borrowers in Dollars ("Revolving Loans") from time to time
from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date, or such earlier
date as the Revolving Commitments shall have been terminated
as provided herein for the purposes hereinafter set forth;
provided, however, that the sum of the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding

agree to make, Competitive Loans in Dollars to one or more of
the Borrowers; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans shall not at
any time exceed the lesser of (a) TWO HUNDRED TWENTY-FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS ($225,000,000) and (b) fifty percent (50%) of

forumulas in (x) and (y) of clause I above shall not
exceed the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Net
Asset Sales Proceeds received as a result of Asset
Dispositions minus (ii) any proceeds which are used
