Account Bank (or to reimburse the applicable Borrower for any such amounts as
may have been
11
previously paid by or on behalf of such Borrower from other funds on account of
any Chargebacks at a time when insufficient amounts were available therefor in
the Minimum Balance Sub-Account) promptly after delivery to Lender of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to Lender that such amounts are due (or have been paid
by or on behalf of the applicable Borrower). In the event that during a Cash
Trap Event, as a result of any such disbursement or otherwise, the Minimum
Balance Sub-Account shall contain less than the Minimum Balance, the Borrowers
shall be required to deposit such deficiency from and at the time of allocations
from the Lock Box Account pursuant to Section 3.3(a)(ix) hereof.
SECTION 2.2 DEPOSITS INTO ACCOUNTS. The Borrowers and Manager
represent, warrant and covenant that:
(a) Each Borrower and Manager shall cause all Operating Revenues
and other income and revenues received by such Borrower or Manager to be
deposited directly into the Deposit Account for each applicable Property. The
Borrowers shall obtain an agreement (each, a "CREDIT CARD RECEIVABLES PAYMENT
DIRECTION LETTER") from each of the Persons paying or disbursing credit card
receivables (each, a "CREDIT CARD COMPANY" and collectively, the "CREDIT CARD
COMPANIES"), in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A attached hereto or as
otherwise approved by Lender in its reasonable discretion, pursuant to which the
Credit Card Companies agree to pay all credit card receivables for the
Properties directly into the Lock Box Account, and acknowledge and agree that
Lender shall have a first priority perfected security interest in such credit
card receivables. Pursuant to the Deposit Account Agreement, all available funds
on deposit in the applicable Deposit Account shall be deposited directly by the
Deposit Bank into the Lock Box Account by wire transfer on each Business Day.
(b) If any Borrower or Manager receives any Operating Revenues or
other income or revenues from any Property, or any Extraordinary Receipts, then
such receipt shall not constitute a Default provided (i) such amounts shall be
deemed to be Collateral and shall be held in trust for the benefit, and as the
property, of Lender, and (ii) such Borrower or Manager shall deposit such
amounts into the applicable Deposit Account within two (2) Business Days of
receipt.
(c) Without the prior written consent of Lender, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, neither the Borrowers nor
Manager shall (i) terminate, amend, revoke or modify any Credit Card Receivables
Payment Direction Letter in any manner whatsoever, or (ii) direct or cause any
Credit Card Company to pay any amount in any manner other than as provided in
the related Credit Card Receivables Payment Direction Letter, unless a
replacement Credit Card Receivables Payment Direction Letter in form reasonably
acceptable to Lender is executed and delivered to Lender by any proposed
replacement Credit Card Company prior to termination of the then effective
Credit Card Receivables Payment Direction Letter.
(d) Each Borrower and Manager shall also cause the proceeds of any
Business Interruption Insurance to be deposited directly into the Lock Box
Account as same are paid (or, if any such proceeds are received by such Borrower
or Manager, same shall be deposited into the Lock Box Account within two (2)
Business Days after receipt thereof) and such proceeds shall be allocated and
disbursed in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof. If the proceeds of any such
12
Business Interruption Insurance are paid in a lump sum, such proceeds shall be
deposited into the Loss Proceeds Account. Agent shall cause monthly amounts to
be transferred from the Loss Proceeds Account to the Lock Box Account as
directed by Lender (based upon a ratable allocation of such proceeds over the
casualty restoration period as reasonably determined by Lender) on the first
(1st) Business Day of each calendar month during the period of restoration of
the Property, and after transfer of same to the Lock Box Account, such amounts
shall be allocated and disbursed in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof.
(e) The Borrowers and Manager shall also cause any payments and
proceeds payable to the Borrowers under any Cap entered into by or for the
benefit of the Borrowers and pledged to Lender in accordance with the terms of
the Loan Agreement to be deposited directly into the Lock Box Account by the
applicable Cap Provider (or, if any such proceeds are received by any Borrower
or Manager, same shall be deposited into the Lock Box Account within two (2)
Business Days after receipt thereof) and such proceeds shall be allocated,
disbursed and applied in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof.
SECTION 2.3 ACCOUNT NAME. The Accounts shall each be in the names
set forth herein; provided, however, that if Lender transfers or assigns the
Loan, Agent, at Lender's request (with respect to the Accounts other than the
Deposit Account), and each Deposit Bank (with respect to its Deposit Account)
shall change the name of each Account to the name of the transferee or assignee.
If Lender retains a Servicer to service the Loan, Agent, at Lender's request,
shall change the name of each Account to the name of Servicer, as agent for
Lender.
SECTION 2.4 ELIGIBLE ACCOUNTS/CHARACTERIZATION OF ACCOUNTS. The
Borrowers and Agent shall maintain each Account (other than the Deposit Account)
as an Eligible Account. Each Account (other than the Deposit Account) is and
shall be treated as a "SECURITIES ACCOUNT" as such term is defined in Section
8-501(a) of the UCC. Agent hereby agrees that each item of property (whether
investment property, financial asset, securities, securities entitlement,
instrument, cash or other property) credited to each Account shall be treated as
a "FINANCIAL ASSET" within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC. Agent
shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, treat Lender as entitled to
exercise the rights that comprise any financial asset credited to each Account.
All securities or other property underlying any financial assets credited to
each Account (other than cash) shall be registered in the name of Agent,
indorsed to Agent or in blank or credited to another securities account
maintained in the name of Agent and in no case will any financial asset credited
to any Account be registered in the name of any Borrower, payable to the order
of any Borrower or specially indorsed to any Borrower.
SECTION 2.5 PERMITTED INVESTMENTS. Sums on deposit in the Accounts
may, at the Borrowers' election, be invested in Permitted Investments, provided
that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will funds in the Deposit
Account be subject to any investment. Except during the existence of any Event
of Default, the Borrowers shall have the right to direct Agent to invest sums on
deposit in the Accounts in Permitted Investments. After an Event of Default and
during the continuance thereof, Lender may direct Agent to invest sums on
deposit in the Accounts in Permitted Investments as Lender shall determine in
its sole discretion. The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize and direct Agent
to apply any income earned from Permitted Investments to the respective
Accounts. The amount of actual losses sustained on a
13
liquidation of a Permitted Investment shall be deposited into the Lock Box
Account by the Borrowers no later than three (3) Business Days following such
liquidation. The Borrowers shall be responsible for payment of any federal,
state or local income or other tax applicable to income earned from Permitted
Investments. The Accounts shall be assigned the federal tax identification
number of the applicable Borrowers, which numbers are set forth on the signature
page hereof. Any interest, dividends or other earnings which may accrue on the
Accounts shall be added to the balance in the applicable Account and allocated
and/or disbursed in accordance with the terms hereof.

V. PLEDGE OF ACCOUNTS
SECTION 5.1 SECURITY FOR OBLIGATIONS. (a) To secure the full and
punctual payment and performance of all Obligations of the Borrowers under the
Loan Agreement, the Note, the Security Instruments, this Agreement and all other
Loan Documents, the Borrowers hereby grant to Lender a first priority continuing
security interest in and to the following property of the Borrowers, whether now
owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and regardless of where
located (all of the same, collectively, the "COLLATERAL"):
(i) the Deposit Account, the Lock Box Account, each of the
Sub-Accounts, the FF&E Reserve Account, any Loss Proceeds Account and all
cash, checks, drafts, certificates and instruments, if any, from time to
time deposited or held in the Lock Box Account, each of the Sub-Accounts,

limitation, all deposits or wire transfers made to the Deposit Account,
the Lock Box Account, each of the Sub-Accounts, the FF&E Reserve Account,
and any Loss Proceeds Account;

effect in the State of New York (the "UCC")) of any or all of the
foregoing.
(b) Lender and Agent, as agent for Lender, shall have with respect
to the Collateral, in addition to the rights and remedies herein set forth, all
of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC, as if
such rights and remedies were fully set forth herein.
SECTION 5.2 RIGHTS ON DEFAULT. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall promptly notify Agent of such
Event of Default and, without notice from Lender, (a) the Borrowers shall have
no further right in respect of (including, without limitation, the right to
instruct Lender or Agent to transfer from) the Accounts, (b) Lender may direct
Agent to liquidate and transfer any amounts then invested in Permitted
Investments to the Accounts or reinvest such amounts in other Permitted
Investments as Lender may reasonably determine is necessary to perfect or
protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to
enable Agent, as agent for Lender, or Lender to exercise and enforce Lender's
rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral, and (c) Lender may
apply any Collateral to any Obligations in such order of priority as Lender may
determine. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part
thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of the Obligations in such
priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper.
SECTION 5.3 FINANCING STATEMENT; FURTHER ASSURANCES. Simultaneously
herewith, the Borrowers shall deliver to Lender for filing a financing statement
or statements in
18
connection with the Collateral in the form reasonably required by Lender to
properly perfect Lender's security interest therein to the extent a security
interest in the Collateral may also be perfected by filing. The Borrowers agree
that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of the Borrowers, the
Borrowers will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and
documents, and take all further actions, that may be reasonably necessary, or
that Agent or Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any
security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby (including, without
limitation, any security interest in and to any Permitted Investments) or to
enable Agent or Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder
with respect to any Collateral. In the event of any change in name, identity or
structure of any Borrower, such Borrower shall notify Lender thereof and
promptly after Lender's reasonable request shall file and record, or deliver to
Lender, such UCC financing statements (if any) 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 UCC
financing or continuation statements, the Borrowers shall, promptly after
request, execute, if necessary, file and record such UCC financing or
continuation statements as Lender shall deem reasonably necessary, and shall pay
all reasonable expenses and fees in connection with the filing and recording
thereof.

Borrowers shall be entitled to the return, at their expense, of such of the
Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the
terms hereof, and Agent and/or Lender shall execute such instruments and
documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrowers to evidence such
termination and the release of the lien hereof including, without limitation,
letters to Credit Card Companies, as applicable, prepared by the Borrowers and
reasonably acceptable to Lender rescinding the instructions set forth in the
Credit Card Receivables Payment Direction Letter and UCC-3 termination
statements.
VI. RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF LENDER AND AGENT
SECTION 6.1 REASONABLE CARE. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care
in the custody thereof or as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Agent
nor Lender shall have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control
as agent therefor or bailee thereof or any income thereon or the preservation of
rights against any Person or otherwise with respect thereto. Agent and Lender
each shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and
preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded
treatment substantially equal to that which Agent or Lender accords its own
property, it being understood that Agent and/or Lender shall not be liable or
responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any
diminution in value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of Agent or
Lender, its Affiliates, agents, employees or bailees, except to the extent that
such loss or damage results from such Person's gross negligence or willful
misconduct, provided that nothing in this Article VI shall be deemed to relieve
Agent from the duties and standard of care which, as a commercial bank, it
generally owes to depositors. Neither Lender nor Agent shall have any liability
for any loss resulting from the investment of funds in Permitted Investments in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
19
SECTION 6.2 INDEMNITY. Agent, in its capacity as agent hereunder,
shall be responsible for the performance only of such duties as are specifically
set forth herein, and no duty shall be implied from any provision hereof. Agent
shall not be under any obligation or duty to perform any act which would involve
it in expense or liability or to institute or defend any suit in respect hereof,
or to advance any of its own monies. The Borrowers shall indemnify and hold
Agent and Lender, their respective employees, officers, directors and agents
harmless from and against any loss, liability, cost or damage (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by
Agent or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, except
to the extent that such loss or damage results from such Person's gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the resignation and removal of Agent.
SECTION 6.3 RELIANCE. Agent shall be protected in acting upon any
notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond
or other paper, document or signature believed by it to be genuine, and it may
be assumed that any person purporting to act on behalf of any Person giving any
of the foregoing in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly
authorized to do so. Agent may consult with legal counsel, and the advice or
opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection
in respect of any action taken or suffered by it hereunder and in good faith in
accordance therewith. Agent shall not be liable for any act or omission done or
omitted to be done by Agent in reliance upon any instruction, direction or
certification received by Agent and without gross negligence or willful or
reckless misconduct. Agent shall be entitled to execute any of the powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or through agents or
attorneys; provided, however, that the execution of such powers by any such
agents or attorneys shall not diminish, or relieve Agent for, responsibility
therefor to the same degree as if Agent itself had executed such powers.
SECTION 6.4 RESIGNATION OF AGENT.
(a) Agent shall have the right to resign as Agent hereunder upon
sixty (60) days' prior written notice to the Borrowers and Lender, and in the
event of such resignation, the Borrowers shall appoint a successor Agent which
must be an Eligible Bank. No such resignation by Agent shall become effective
until a successor Agent shall have accepted such appointment and executed an
instrument by which it shall have assumed all of the rights and obligations of
Agent hereunder. If no such successor Agent is appointed within sixty (60) days
after receipt of the resigning Agent's notice of resignation, the resigning
Agent may petition a court for the appointment of a successor Agent.
(b) In connection with any resignation by Agent, (i) the resigning
Agent shall, (A) duly assign, transfer and deliver to the successor Agent this
Agreement and all cash and Permitted Investments held by it hereunder, (B)
deliver such financing statements and execute and deliver such other instruments
prepared by the Borrowers and reasonably approved by Lender or prepared by
Lender as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Agent, as agent
for Lender, any security interest in the Collateral existing in favor of the
retiring Agent hereunder and to otherwise give effect to such succession and (C)
take such other actions as may be reasonably required by Lender or the successor
Agent in connection with the foregoing and (ii) the successor Agent shall
establish in Lender's name, as secured party, cash collateral accounts, which
shall become the Accounts for purposes of this Agreement upon the succession
20
of such Agent, and which Accounts shall also be "securities accounts" within the
meaning of the UCC.
(c) Lender at its sole discretion shall have the right, upon
thirty (30) days notice to Agent, to substitute Agent with a successor Agent
that satisfies the requirements of an Eligible Bank or to have one or more of
the Accounts held by another Eligible Bank, provided that such successor Agent
shall perform the duties of Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
SECTION 6.5 LENDER APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. The Borrowers hereby
irrevocably constitute and appoint Lender as the Borrowers' true and lawful
attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution,
to exercise and enforce every right, power, remedy, option and privilege of the
Borrowers with respect to the Collateral, and do in the name, place and stead of
the Borrowers, all such acts, things and deeds for and on behalf of and in the
name of the Borrowers, which the Borrowers are required to do hereunder or under
the other Loan Documents or which Agent or Lender may reasonably deem necessary
to more fully vest in Lender the rights and remedies provided for herein and to
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement including, without limitation, the
filing of any UCC financing statements or continuation statements in appropriate
public filing offices on behalf of the Borrowers, in any of the foregoing cases,
upon the Borrowers' failure to take any of the foregoing actions within ten (10)
days after notice from Lender. The foregoing powers of attorney are irrevocable
and coupled with an interest. If any Borrower fails to perform any agreement
herein contained and such failure shall continue for ten (10) days after notice
of such failure is given to such Borrower, Lender may perform or cause
performance of any such agreement, and any reasonable expenses of Lender and
Agent in connection therewith shall be paid by the Borrowers.
SECTION 6.6 ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF LIEN/OFFSET RIGHTS. Agent hereby
acknowledges and agrees with respect to the Accounts that (a) the Accounts shall
be held by Agent in the names set forth herein, (b) all funds held in the
Accounts shall be held for the benefit of Lender, (c) the Borrowers have granted
to Lender a first priority security interest in the Collateral, (d) Agent shall
not disburse any funds from the Accounts except as provided herein, and (e)
Agent shall invest and reinvest any balance of the Accounts in Permitted
Investments in accordance with Section 2.5 hereof. Agent hereby waives any right
of offset, banker's lien or similar rights against, or any assignment, security
interest or other interest in, the Collateral.
SECTION 6.7 REPORTING PROCEDURES.
Agent shall provide the Borrowers and Lender with a record of all
checks and any other items deposited to the Lock Box Account or processed for
collection. Agent shall send a daily credit advice to the Borrowers and Manager,
which credit advice shall specify the amount of each receipt deposited into each
Account on such date. Agent shall send a monthly report to the Borrowers,
Manager and Lender, which monthly report shall specify the credits and charges
to the Accounts for the previous calendar month. Agent shall, at the request of
Lender, establish Lender and its designated Servicer, and the Borrowers, as
users of Agent's electronic data transfer system in accordance with Agent's
standard procedures; provided that, the Borrowers' access shall be limited to
information services and shall under no circumstances provide the Borrowers with
transaction rights in any such account. Upon request of Lender or its designated
21
Servicer, (i) Agent shall send to Lender or its designated Servicer, as
applicable, either (x) copies of the daily credit advices and any other advices
or reports furnished by Agent to the Borrowers and/or Manager hereunder or (y)
information on Account balances, to the extent said balances in the Accounts
have changed from the previous report, the aggregate amount of withdrawals from
the Accounts and other similar information via the electronic data transfer
system or facsimile transmission on a daily basis, and (ii) Agent shall advise
Lender or its designated Servicer, as applicable, of the amount of available
funds in the Accounts and shall deliver to Lender or its designated Servicer
copies of all statements and other information concerning the Accounts, to the
extent that the balances in the Accounts have changed from the previous report,
as Lender or its designated Servicer shall reasonably request. In the event
Agent shall resign as Agent hereunder, Agent shall provide the Borrowers with a
final written accounting, including closing statements, with respect to the
Accounts within thirty (30) days of resignation.

of an Event of Default, Lender or Agent at the direction of Lender, as agent for
Lender, may:

(c) demand, collect, take possession of, receive, settle,
compromise, adjust, xxx for, foreclose or realize upon the Collateral (or any
portion thereof) as Lender may determine in its sole discretion.
SECTION 7.2 WAIVER. The Borrowers hereby expressly waive, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, presentment, demand, protest or any notice of
any kind in connection with this Agreement or the Collateral. The Borrowers
acknowledge and agree that ten (10) days' prior written notice of the time and
place of any public sale of the Collateral or any other intended disposition
thereof shall be reasonable and sufficient notice to the Borrowers within the
meaning of the UCC.
VIII. MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION 8.1 TRANSFERS AND OTHER LIENS. Each Borrower agrees that it
will not (i) sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral or (ii) create
or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to all or any of the
Collateral, except for the Lien granted under this Agreement.
SECTION 8.2 LENDER'S RIGHT TO PERFORM BORROWER'S OBLIGATIONS; NO
LIABILITY OF LENDER. If any Borrower fails to perform any of the covenants or
obligations contained herein, and such failure shall continue for a period ten
(10) Business Days after such Borrower's receipt of written notice thereof from
Lender, Lender may itself perform, or cause
22
performance of, such covenants or obligations, and the reasonable expenses of
Lender incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Borrowers to
Lender. Notwithstanding Lender's right to perform certain obligations of the
Borrowers, it is acknowledged and agreed that the Borrowers retain control of
the Property and operation thereof and notwithstanding anything contained herein
or Agent's or Lender's exercise of any of its rights or remedies hereunder,
under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity, neither Agent nor
Lender shall be deemed to be a mortgagee-in-possession nor shall Lender be
subject to any liability with respect to the Property or otherwise based upon
any claim of lender liability except as a result of Lender's gross negligence or
willful misconduct.
SECTION 8.3 NO WAIVER. The rights and remedies provided in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and may be exercised
independently or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any other right or
remedy provided at law or in equity. No failure to exercise or delay by Agent or
Lender in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or under the Loan Documents
shall impair or prohibit the exercise of any such rights or remedies in the
future or be deemed to constitute a waiver or limitation of any such right or
remedy or acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy granted to Agent and/or
Lender hereunder or by law may be exercised by Agent and/or Lender at any time
and from time to time, and as often as Agent and/or Lender may deem it
expedient. Any and all of Agent's and/or Lender's rights with respect to the
lien and security interest granted hereunder shall continue unimpaired, and the
Borrowers shall be and remain obligated in accordance with the terms hereof,
notwithstanding (a) any proceeding of the Borrowers under the Federal Bankruptcy
Code or any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization laws or statutes of any
state, (b) the release or substitution of Collateral at any time, or of any
rights or interests therein or (c) any delay, extension of time, renewal,
compromise or other indulgence granted by the Agent and/or Lender in the event
of any default, with respect to the Collateral or otherwise hereunder. No delay
or extension of time by Agent and/or Lender in exercising any power of sale,
option or other right or remedy hereunder, and no notice or demand which may be
given to or made upon the Borrowers by Agent and/or Lender, shall constitute a
waiver thereof, or limit, impair or prejudice Agent's and/or Lender's right,
without notice or demand, to take any action against the Borrowers or to
exercise any other power of sale, option or any other right or remedy.
SECTION 8.4 EXPENSES. Agent shall deduct from the Lock Box Account
for its own account the monthly Servicing Fee for which the Borrowers are
responsible pursuant to Section 2.11 of the Loan Agreement prior to making any
disbursements pursuant to Section 3.3(a)(ii) hereof, and, for so long as the
Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, Agent shall deduct from the Lock Box Account the
monthly Mezzanine Servicing Fee for which the Mezzanine Borrower is responsible
pursuant to Section 2.11 of the Mezzanine Loan Agreement to be remitted to the
Mezzanine Servicer prior to making any disbursements pursuant to Section
3.3(a)(viii) hereof. The Collateral shall secure, and the Borrowers shall pay to
Agent and Lender within five (5) Business Days of the written demand therefor,
from time to time, all reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited
to, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, and transfer, recording and
filing fees, taxes and other charges) of, or incidental to, the creation or
perfection of any lien or security interest granted or intended to be granted
hereby, the custody, care, sale, transfer, administration, collection of or
realization on the Collateral, or in any way relating to the enforcement,
protection or preservation of the rights or remedies of Agent and/or Lender
under this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Security Instruments, or
the
23
other Loan Documents. Standard and customary fees and charges associated with
the Accounts shall be included on a monthly consolidated account analysis
statement which Agent shall submit to the Borrowers for the Borrowers' payment.
This statement shall set forth the fees and charges payable for such month,
including, but not limited to reasonable fees and reasonable expenses incurred
in connection with this Agreement and be accompanied by reasonably detailed
supporting documentation. Agent shall be entitled to charge the Accounts for
such reasonable fees and expenses as indicated by the analysis statement.
SECTION 8.5 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire
and final agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and may not be changed, terminated or otherwise varied, except by a
writing duly executed by the parties.
SECTION 8.6 NO WAIVER. No waiver of any term or condition of this
Agreement, whether by delay, omission or otherwise, shall be effective unless in
writing and signed by the party sought to be charged, and then such waiver shall
be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their respective successors
and permitted assigns.

extent and with the same force as if fully set forth
