Borrower agrees to pay to Lender, as consideration for Lender’s Commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable unused facility fee (the “Unused Facility Fee”) equal to fifteen basis points (.0015) per annum (computed on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days and actual days elapsed) on the average daily difference between the amount of either (i) the Commitment and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Loan. Except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.14, with respect to liquidated Unused Facility Fees, all Unused Facility Fees shall be payable monthly in arrears on each Payment Date and shall be set forth on the applicable Monthly Payment Statement. Unused Facility Fee payments which cover less than one (1) month shall be prorated based on the actual number of days elapsed. Any accrued but unpaid Unused Facility Fees shall also be due and payable on the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the Unused Facility Fee shall begin to accrue only from and after the date which is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date.

2.5.4. Minimum Usage Fee.

Accruing from twelve (12) months after the Closing Date until the Expiration Date, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender, to the extent the Deemed Minimum Loan Amount exceeds the actual average annual Loan amount outstanding during the applicable computation period, as further consideration for Lender’s commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable minimum usage fee (the “Minimum Usage Fee”) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) such excess times (ii) the lowest G-Fee plus the Servicing Fee. The Minimum Usage Fee shall be computed for each calendar year, or part thereof, during the term of this Agreement and shall be payable, if at all, in arrears on the Payment Date scheduled for January of each year of the term hereof, provided that any Minimum Usage Fee due in the year in which the Expiration Date falls shall be due and payable on the Expiration Date. Upon termination or acceleration of the Loan as provided herein, Borrower shall pay the liquidated Minimum Usage Fee computed in accordance with Section 2.14.2. Minimum Usage Fee payments which cover a period of less than one (1) calendar year shall be prorated based on the actual number of days elapsed.

2.5.5. Minimum Servicing Fee.

Accruing from the Closing Date until the Expiration Date, Borrower agrees to pay to Servicer a nonrefundable minimum servicing fee (the “Minimum Servicing Fee”) equal to the product obtained by (i) an assumed Borrowing Tranche in an amount equal to the Deemed Minimum Loan Amount times (ii) the Servicing Fee, provided that the Minimum Servicing Fee shall be due and payable only if, and to the extent that, the foregoing calculation results in an amount which is greater than the Servicing Fee Payment actually paid by Borrower during the same computation period. The Minimum Servicing Fee shall be computed for each calendar year, or part thereof, during the term of this Agreement and shall be payable, if at all, in arrears on the Payment Date scheduled for January of each year of the term hereof, provided that any Minimum Servicing Fee due in the year in which the Expiration Date falls shall be due and payable on the Expiration Date. Upon termination or acceleration of the Loan as provided herein, Borrower shall pay the liquidated Minimum Servicing Fee computed in accordance with Section 2.14.2. Minimum Servicing Fee payments which cover a period of less than one (1) calendar year shall be prorated based on the actual number of days elapsed. Notwithstanding the characterization assigned to the payments under this Section 2.5.5, such payment obligation shall be deemed interest payable under the Agreement for the purpose of calculating the Facility Debt Service.

2.6. Loan Requests.

Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request Lender to make an advance to the extent of the Maximum Facility Available less the Loan, by delivering to Lender via facsimile, a request therefor (a “Loan Request”) fully completed, authorized and executed by Servicer and an Authorized Officer of Borrower, all in the form attached hereto as Schedule 2.6. Borrower may at any one time submit one (1) or more Loan Requests; each Loan Request shall specify the items set forth on Schedule 2.6, including, but not limited to, (i) the proposed Borrowing Date (which Borrowing Date shall be in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.7); (ii) the amount of the proposed Borrowing Tranche, which shall each not be less than Three Million Dollars and NO/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) unless otherwise approved by Lender in its sole discretion; and (iii) in the case of a Loan Request for a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche, (a) the Interest Period for purposes of determining the Reference BillsSM Rate (or such alternative index as may be selected by Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4); and (b) the Base Rate, including the Reference BillsSM Rate (or such alternative index as may be selected by Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4) and Margin that comprise such Base Rate.

2.6.1. Sublimits.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Borrower may borrow hereunder only to the extent that after giving effect to such borrowing (collectively, the “Sublimits”):

2.6.1.1. the Loan to Value Ratio shall not exceed seventy percent (70%) (the “Maximum Loan to Value Ratio”);

2.6.1.2. the Facility Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall not be less than 1.20 : 1.00.

2.6.1.3. the number of Borrowing Tranches outstanding shall not exceed fifteen (15);

2.7. The Loan.

After receipt by Lender of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.6, and subject to the Sublimits of Section 2.6.1 and the provisions of Section 5.2, Lender, relying on the truth and accuracy of the matters set forth in the Loan Request (but without any obligation to inquire into the truth and accuracy of such matters), shall fund the amount requested in such Loan Request to Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds on the Borrowing Date. The Borrowing Date shall be the Business Day set forth in the Loan Request, provided that such date is at least two (2) but not more than five (5) Business Days after the date of the Loan Request. Lender shall fund the amounts requested in any Loan Request by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Borrowing Date.

2.8. Revolving Credit Note.

2.9. Use of Proceeds.

The proceeds of the Loan may be used for any lawful purpose and as set forth in Borrower’s organizational documents.

2.10. Additions to the Collateral Pool.

2.10.1. Procedure for Proposing a Real Property Addition to the Collateral Pool.

Borrower or Proposed Borrower, as the case may be, may propose to add one or more fully stabilized, investment quality, multi-family real properties to the Collateral Pool by delivering to Lender (i) a written proposal for addition of the proposed real property(ies), (ii) a Mortgage Review Fee for each proposed real property, (iii) a Seismic Report Fee, if and as applicable, for each proposed real property and (iv) the Underwriting Materials with respect to the proposed real property(ies) and with respect to Proposed Borrower, if applicable, provided that, no more than two (2) such proposals shall be submitted to Lender in any one (1) Month. Upon Lender’s receipt of the Mortgage Review Fee, the Seismic Report Fee, if and as applicable, and all Underwriting Materials, Lender shall notify Borrower or Proposed Borrower of the same. The determination of whether Borrower or Proposed Borrower has provided Lender with all Underwriting Materials shall be in Lender’s discretion. For purposes of this Section 2.10, Borrower or Proposed Borrower may submit a multi-family real property for addition to the Collateral Pool, if Borrower or Proposed Borrower has a contract to purchase such real property, provided that Borrower or Proposed Borrower consummates the purchase of such real property on or before the date such real property is proposed to be added to the Collateral Pool. Both the Mortgage Review Fee and the Seismic Report Fee, if any, shall be deemed earned upon delivery thereof, whether or not Lender approves or disapproves such real property for addition hereunder. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses that Lender and Servicer incur in connection with any such proposal to add a real property to the Collateral Pool, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees and any reasonable costs and expenses incurred with respect to third party reports, whether or not Lender approves or disapproves such real property for addition hereunder.

2.10.2. Procedure for Adding a Real Property to the Collateral Pool.

2.10.2.1. With respect to any multi-family real property that Borrower or Proposed Borrower, as the case may be, proposes for addition to the Collateral Pool, Lender shall employ a procedure similar to its early rate lock underwriting procedures, to provide for a preliminary review and nonbinding indication of the preliminary loan amount and interest rate. Thereafter, within fifty (50) days of the date on which Lender notifies Borrower or Proposed Borrower that it has received all Underwriting Materials, Lender shall use its best efforts to accept or reject in writing the proposed real property on the basis of whether such proposed real property meets Lender’s then current requirements for addition to the Collateral Pool, and in the event that Lender accepts the proposed real property for addition to the Collateral Pool, Lender shall use its best efforts to add such real property in the Collateral Pool within twenty (20) days of the date of such acceptance, subject to Borrower’s or Proposed Borrower’s timely performance of all obligations listed under Section 2.10.2.2. Each property must pass Lender’s own assessment of earthquake risk to be included in the Collateral Pool. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no real property shall be submitted for addition which (i) will yield an Additional Collateral Facility (to be determined by Lender in accordance with its underwriting policies and procedures, utilizing a capitalization of net operating income to determine value) of less than Three Million and NO/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) or (ii) is not fully stabilized. The failure of Lender to respond to Borrower’s or Proposed Borrower’s request within such fifty (50) day period shall be deemed a rejection by Lender of the proposal to add the real property to the Collateral Pool. If Lender provide(s) the reason(s) for such rejection, Borrower or Proposed Borrower shall have forty-five (45) days to cure or otherwise resolve to the satisfaction of Lender, the objections of Lender to such proposed real property (Lender, in its sole discretion, may require that Borrower provide within such forty-five (45) day cure period necessary updates of any or all of the Underwriting Materials). If Borrower or Proposed Borrower does not satisfy Lender’s objections, then such proposal shall be deemed terminated (unless Lender, in its sole discretion shall opt to extend such forty-five (45) day cure period) provided that, any such termination shall not prevent Borrower or Proposed Borrower from subsequently resubmitting a real property (together with a Mortgage Review Fee, a Seismic Report Fee, if and as applicable, and the Underwriting Materials) for addition to the Collateral Pool. Notwithstanding anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary, under no circumstances shall the addition of any real property increase the amount of the Commitment.

2.10.2.2. Upon the date of acceptance by Lender under Section 2.10.2.1 of a multi-family real property submitted for addition to the Collateral Pool (such acceptance to be in writing, together with Lender’s determination of the Initial Market Value of such real property and the Net Operating Income of such property), whether following the initial proposal of such real property or after satisfying any objections of Lender, such real property shall be added to the Collateral Pool, provided that, prior to such addition (or in the instance of the documents required under item (iii)(b) below, as soon as practicable after such addition), Borrower or Proposed Borrower shall (i) pay the Addition Fee pursuant to Section 2.10.3, (ii) pay all reasonable costs and expenses that Lender or Servicer incur in connection with the inclusion of such real property, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees, and (iii) submit the following to Lender: (a) all Collateral Pool Property Documents requested by Lender, fully executed and where appropriate duly acknowledged and filed of record in the appropriate official public records, (b) copies of all filing receipts and acknowledgements issued by any governmental authority evidencing any recordation or filing necessary to perfect Lender’s Lien on the subject real property or other evidence satisfactory to Lender of such recordation and filing of the applicable Security Instrument, (c) evidence satisfactory to Lender that, subject to the Permitted Exceptions, (1) in the case of personal property, the Lien constitutes a first priority security interest in favor of Lender and, (2) in the case of real property, the Security Instrument constitutes a valid and perfected first priority Lien in favor of Lender (such evidence to be in the form of a title insurance policy acceptable to Lender in both form and substance), and (d) an opinion of counsel acceptable to Lender and (iv) in the case of a Proposed Borrower, such Proposed Borrower shall execute (a) an allonge to the Revolving Credit Note and (b) a joinder agreement, both of which shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion. If Borrower or Proposed Borrower fails to perform any of the acts, where applicable, or to submit any of the documents and evidence listed under (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above together with any and all updates to the Underwriting Materials reasonably requested by Lender within forty-five (45) days of the date of Lender’s acceptance, Lender may at its option reject the proposed real estate property and terminate such proposal. In the event that Borrower or Proposed Borrower performs all of the acts and submits all of the documents and evidence listed in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above within forty-five (45) days of the date of Lender’s acceptance, the proposed real estate property shall be added to the Collateral Pool.

2.10.3. Addition Fee.

In addition to other fees due and payable hereunder, including without limitation, fees due pursuant to Section 2.5.2, Borrower shall pay a fee (the “Addition Fee”) equal to ten basis points (.0010) times the product of (i) the Market Value of the property added to the Collateral Pool in accordance with this Section 2.10 and (ii) the Maximum Loan to Value Ratio, provided that (a) no such fee shall be payable in connection with an addition until such time as the Deemed Maximum Facility Available exceeds the Commitment and (b) at such time as the Deemed Maximum Facility Available exceeds the Commitment, the Market Value described in (i) above shall equal the Market Value of the property being added to the Collateral Pool less any portion of such value necessary to cause the Deemed Maximum Facility Available to equal the Commitment.

2.11. Release of Collateral.

Lender shall, upon thirty (30) days advance written notice, release the Liens granted hereunder with respect to a Collateral Pool Property or Properties which constitute(s) less than all Collateral Pool Properties, provided that (i) prior to such release Borrower shall pay Lender Ten Thousand Dollars and NO/100 ($10,000.00) per property, and Borrower shall pay Lender and Servicer all actual, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses that Lender or Servicer incur in connection with such release, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, (ii) at the time of the request for such release, no Event of Default or Potential Default shall exist, and (iii) after giving effect to such release, no Event of Default or Potential Default shall exist, and Borrower shall be in compliance with all provisions hereof, provided, however, that if such release would otherwise cause Borrower to be in non-compliance with the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.6.1, Borrower shall have the opportunity to cure the same prior to or simultaneously with such release by either (a) pledging collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements and Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements), or (b) prepaying so much of the Loan as is necessary to cause compliance with the Sublimits, each in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3. Notwithstanding such thirty (30) day time period to obtain a release, Lender shall upon five (5) Business Days notice provide a “payoff letter” stating the amount necessary to obtain a release so as to effectuate a sale or refinance of the subject Collateral Pool Property. Upon the release of a Lien on a Collateral Pool Property, if the owner of such Collateral Pool Property owns no other Collateral Pool Properties, such owner may be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents in Lender’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances may Borrower receive a release of the Security Instrument with respect to the last property in the Collateral Pool prior to the Maturity Date, unless this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 2.14 hereunder.

2.12. Payment of the Loan Balance Without Termination.

Borrower shall have the right to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Loan (subject to any Prepayment Fee due hereunder) without any release of any Lien, and subsequently reborrow hereunder, provided that Borrower is at such time and thereafter remains in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligations to pay all fees due and payable hereunder.

2.13. Valuations.

2.13.1. Timing and Procedure of Valuation.

In addition to any other provisions requiring valuations hereunder, Lender shall perform, in accordance with its then current underwriting policies, practices and procedures consistently applied (utilizing a capitalization of net operating income to determine value), and at no cost to Borrower, an annual valuation (the “Valuation”) to determine the then Market Value of each of the Collateral Pool Properties as of January 1st of such year, which Valuation shall be performed on or before September 1 of each calendar year during the term of this Agreement, commencing on or about September 1, 2007. In connection with such Valuation, Borrower shall deliver to Servicer within the first forty-five (45) days of the applicable calendar year, a current rent roll and a twelve (12) month operating statement with respect to each Collateral Pool Property and such additional information as Borrower reasonably deems to be relevant to the Market Value of the Collateral Pool Properties. Any operating statement required hereunder shall relate to the operations of the applicable Collateral Pool Property during the preceding calendar year. In addition to the Valuation, Lender shall perform a re-valuation of any Collateral Pool Property(ies) upon Borrower’s written request therefore, provided that (i) Borrower may not request that Lender perform a re-valuation of any Collateral Property more often than one (1) time in any calendar year, and (ii) such request shall be accompanied by (a) a fee equal to the greater of (1) the product of Five Hundred and NO/100 Dollars ($500.00) times the number of Collateral Pool Properties with respect to which Borrower has requested such re-valuation or (2) Three Thousand and NO/100 Dollars ($3,000.00), (b) a current rent roll and a trailing twelve (12) month operating statement with respect to each Collateral Pool Property for which Borrower has requested a re-valuation, and (c) such additional information as Borrower reasonably deems to be relevant to the Market Value of each Collateral Pool Property for which Borrower has requested a re-valuation. Each such rent roll and operating statement shall be in such form and contain such detail as Lender may reasonably require; without limiting the foregoing, Lender may require that any such rent rolls and operating statements shall be certified by an Authorized Officer and/or audited by an independent accountant acceptable to Lender, provided, Lender shall not require audited rent rolls or operating statements more than once in any twelve (12) month period, except if an Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing.

2.13.2. Valuations that Disclose a Decrease in Market Value.

If any Valuation discloses that the Market Value of the Collateral Pool Properties has decreased below the then current Market Value thereof, the Maximum Facility Available shall be adjusted in accordance with the provisions hereof and in the event such decrease in Market Value shall cause Borrower to be in non-compliance with the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.6.1, Borrower shall within ninety (90) days of notice from Lender of such decrease, cure the same by bringing the Loan into compliance with the Sublimits by either (i) pledging collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements and Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements), or (ii) prepaying so much of the Loan as is necessary to cause compliance with the Sublimits, each in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3.

2.13.3. Valuations that Disclose an Increase in Market Value.

If any new Valuation discloses that the Market Value of the Collateral Pool Properties has increased above the Market Value of such Collateral Pool Properties immediately prior to such new Valuation, the Maximum Facility Available shall be adjusted to the extent of the lesser of (i) the amount of such increase in Market Value, or (ii) the Commitment.

2.14. Termination.

2.14.1. Termination Rights.

Borrower and Lender shall have the rights to terminate this Agreement or to accelerate the Loan, as applicable, as set forth in this Section 2.14.

2.14.1.1. Borrower’s Right to Terminate.

In the event that Borrower shall comply with the foregoing requirements, Lender shall release the Liens granted hereunder on the Expiration Date in accordance with Section 2.11. Without limiting any other provision contained herein to the contrary, in the event Borrower shall revoke any such request to terminate this Agreement and its obligations hereunder, Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender and Servicer in connection with such revocation.

2.14.1.2. Lender’s Right to Accelerate.

Lender shall have the right to accelerate the Loan (a) upon an Event of Default that remains uncured by Borrower beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period under this Agreement, the Note, or any other of the Loan Documents or (b) pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.3.1.11 (upon the change in Senior Management of REIT). In the event of acceleration pursuant to this Section 2.14.1.2, Lender shall be entitled to collect certain fees pursuant to Section 2.14.2.

2.14.2. Fees Due Upon Early Termination.

2.14.2.1. In the event (i) Borrower shall terminate this Agreement and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.14.1.1 (other than a termination pursuant to Section 3.4.3), or (ii) Lender shall accelerate the Loan pursuant to the provisions of subsection (a) of Section 2.14.1.2, Borrower shall pay:

(i) a Prepayment Fee with respect to each outstanding Base Rate Borrowing Tranche calculated in accordance with Section 4.4,

(ii) a liquidated Unused Facility Fee to be calculated as the product of fifteen basis points (.0015) per annum times the Maximum Facility Available, assuming the Maximum Facility Available to be an amount equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of the Commitment, as if this Agreement had not terminated or accelerated, for each Month which will elapse from the Month in which such termination or acceleration occurs through and including the Month of the Maturity Date, such liquidated Unused Facility Fee to be discounted to net present value at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate,

(iii) a liquidated Minimum Usage Fee to be calculated as the product of the lowest G-Fee charged hereunder times a Borrowing Tranche to be assumed in an amount equal to the Deemed Minimum Loan Amount, as if this Agreement had not terminated or accelerated, for each Month which will elapse from the Month in which such termination or acceleration occurs through and including the Month of the Maturity Date, such liquidated Minimum Usage Fee to be discounted to net present value at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate, together with all accrued Minimum Usage Fees payable as of the date of such termination or acceleration,

(iv) a liquidated Minimum Servicing Fee to be calculated as the product of the Servicing Fee times a Borrowing Tranche to be assumed in an amount equal to the Deemed Minimum Loan Amount, as if this Agreement had not terminated or accelerated, for each Month which will elapse from the Month in which such termination or acceleration occurs through and including the Month of the Maturity Date, such liquidated Minimum Servicing Fee to be discounted to net present value at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate, together with all accrued Minimum Servicing Fees payable as of the date of such termination or acceleration, and

(v) any and all fees, including but not limited to, any termination fee or fee due upon termination, costs and expenses payable under or with respect to any Rate Swap Agreement (collectively, “Hedge Fees”).

2.14.2.2. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event Lender shall accelerate the Loan pursuant to subsection (b) of Section 2.14.1.2, Borrower shall pay a Prepayment Fee with respect to each outstanding Base Rate Borrowing Tranche calculated in accordance with Section 4.4.

2.15. Material Adverse Change to Borrower or a Collateral Pool Property.

If (i) Borrower or a Collateral Pool Property experiences a Material Adverse Change or (ii) a Material Adverse Change occurs with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents taken as a whole, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of the same in writing as soon as Borrower has notice thereof. If Lender shall receive notice of a Material Adverse Change in accordance with the preceding sentence, or otherwise becomes aware of a Material Adverse Change, which Material Adverse Change affects a Collateral Pool Property, Lender shall promptly conduct a Valuation of the affected Collateral Pool Property pursuant to Section 2.13 (or, to the extent Borrower agrees to pay a fee of $4,000.00 per property, a Valuation of all Collateral Pool Properties). Until such time as such Valuation(s) shall be completed, the Collateral Pool Property which experienced the Material Adverse Change, or which is owned by a Borrower that experienced a Material Adverse Change, shall be deemed (but only for the purposes of determining whether any new borrowing request satisfies all of the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.6.1) to have a Market Value equal to a value to be reasonably determined and quantified by Lender upon the information then available to Lender. Lender shall promptly provide Borrower with written notice of the results of such Valuation(s). If the results of such Valuation disclose that the Market Value of the affected Collateral Pool Property (or the Market Value of the Collateral Pool Properties in the aggregate, as the case may be) has decreased, then the Market Value shall thereafter be deemed to be the amount shown in such Valuation(s). In the event that such Valuation(s) hereunder shall cause Borrower to be in non-compliance with the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.6.1, Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days of the notice of such valuation, cure the same by bringing the Loan into compliance with the Sublimits by either (i) pledging collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements), or (ii) prepaying so much of the Loan as is necessary to cause compliance with the Sublimits, each in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3 (except as otherwise specified in Section 4.3.2.3). If Lender shall receive notice of a Material Adverse Change from Borrower hereunder, or otherwise becomes aware of a Material Adverse Change which affects Borrower, any guarantor or the enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents taken as a whole, Borrower shall immediately provide any information or documents reasonably requested by Lender, including, but not limited to, (a) with respect to a Material Adverse Change which affects Borrower, financial statements and Borrower’s business plan to cure such Material Adverse Change, or (b) with respect to a Material Adverse Change which affects the enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents taken as a whole, replacement documents in form and substance acceptable to Lender in its discretion, together with a legal opinion regarding the enforceability of such replacement documents, acceptable to Lender in its discretion; provided however, that Borrower shall not be required to take any action that has the effect of (i) changing the material economic or other business terms of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note, or any other Loan Document or (ii) imposing on Borrower greater liability or obligation than that set forth in this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note or any other Loan Document. If Borrower would otherwise be required to change the material economic or other business terms of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note, or any other Loan Document, or undertake greater liability or obligation than set forth in this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note, or any other Loan Document to cure a Material Adverse Change, Borrower may instead elect to terminate this Agreement, and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents, and upon repayment of the Loan in full, Borrower shall have no further obligation hereunder, including any obligation to pay any Prepayment Fee, or liquidated Unused Facility Fee, Unused Minimum Usage Fee, or Minimum Servicing Fee otherwise payable hereunder. In addition, in the event Borrower shall so elect to terminate this Agreement, Borrower shall provide each counterparty with all necessary notice under each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement to terminate each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement as of the date of repayment in full of the Loan and the Borrower shall deposit with the Lender for payment to the counterparty of each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement, any payments due under any Qualified Rate Swap Agreement and all Hedge Fees.

2.16. Release of Collateral Followed by a Permanent Loan.

2.16.1. Permanent Loan.

Borrower may request that Lender cause Servicer to make a permanent loan (the “Permanent Loan”) to be secured by one or more Collateral Pool Properties designated by Borrower (the “Permanent Loan Collateral”) to be simultaneously released from the Collateral Pool and encumbered in favor of Servicer as security for Borrower’s obligations under the Permanent Loan, which request shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16.2. The Permanent Loan shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Streamlined Refinancing Program. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances may Borrower receive a release of the Security Instrument with respect to the last property in the Collateral Pool prior to the Maturity Date, unless Borrower has elected to terminate this Agreement under Section 2.14 hereunder.

2.16.2. Procedure for Making a Permanent Loan.

Borrower may request that Lender cause Servicer to make a Permanent Loan to Borrower, which request (i) shall be in writing, which writing shall specify (a) the Collateral Pool Property(ies) that will constitute the Permanent Loan Collateral, (b) the original principal amount of the requested Permanent Loan, which amount shall be greater than or equal to Five Million and NO/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00), (c) the related reduction in the Maximum Facility Available, (d) whether Borrower has selected Lender’s then current early rate lock delivery option, and (e) any payment or prepayment of a Borrowing Tranche, and (ii) shall be accompanied by (a) any fees then due and owing under Lender’s Streamlined Refinancing Program for each Collateral Pool Property proposed by Borrower to be subject to the Permanent Loan, and (b) the Underwriting Materials. Following receipt of all of the items specified in (i) and (ii) of the previous sentence, Lender shall employ a procedure similar to its early rate lock underwriting procedure, to provide for preliminary review and nonbinding indication of the preliminary loan amount and interest rate. Thereafter, Lender shall use best efforts to consent to Borrower’s request within sixty (60) days of such notice, provided that (1) at the time of such request no Event of Default or Potential Default exists, (2) the Permanent Loan shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Streamlined Refinancing Program, (3) after giving effect to such release no Event of Default or Potential Default shall exist and Borrower will be in compliance with all provisions hereof, including the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.6.1, further provided that if any release occasioned by a Permanent Loan would otherwise cause Borrower to be in non-compliance with the Sublimits, Borrower shall have the opportunity to cure the same, prior to or simultaneously with the release and the consummation of the Permanent Loan (which shall occur pursuant to the Streamlined Refinancing Program), by either (A) pledging collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements), or (B) prepaying so much of the Loan as is necessary to cause compliance with the Sublimits, each in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3, (4) Borrower shall provide evidence to Lender of title insurance in form and substance acceptable to Lender and in the face amount of the Permanent Loan, (5) the proposed Borrower under the Permanent Loan shall execute and deliver such documents as Lender, in its discretion, may request in order to evidence the making of the Permanent Loan and in order to grant Lender a first priority Lien on the real and personal property constituting the Permanent Loan Collateral subject, in each case, to any Permitted Exceptions, and (6) Borrower shall pay Lender any fees then due and owing under Lender’s Streamlined Refinancing Program. Thereafter, Lender shall use best efforts to consummate the Permanent Loan within thirty (30) days of the granting of Lender’s consent hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Borrower selects Lender’s then current early rate lock delivery option, Lender shall use best efforts, subject to Borrower’s timely compliance with Lender’s requests, to lock the interest rate for the requested Permanent Loan within seven (7) Business Days of Borrower’s notice hereunder. Any Permanent Loan granted pursuant to the foregoing provisions shall not reduce the Commitment hereunder. Simultaneous with the closing of the Permanent Loan, Lender shall release the Lien granted hereunder on the Permanent Loan Collateral.

3. INTEREST RATES

3.1. Interest Rate.

The interest rate on each Borrowing Tranche shall be either the Prime Rate or the Base Rate, as specified in the Loan Request. Interest rates under this Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days and actual days elapsed.

3.2. Interest Rate Determinations.

The initial Prime Rate applicable to any Borrowing Tranche hereunder shall equal the Prime Rate as of the Borrowing Date. The Prime Rate shall thereafter fluctuate in accordance with any changes to the Prime Rate as published from time to time during the term of the Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche. The Base Rate applicable to any Base Rate Borrowing Tranche hereunder shall, subject to the provisions set forth below, equal the Base Rate set forth in the Loan Request, which shall be equal to the Base Rate as such rate exists on the date of the Loan Request. In the event that the Base Rate determined on the Borrowing Date is more than twenty-five basis points (.0025) higher or lower than the Base Rate set forth in the Loan Request, the Base Rate shall be equal to the Reference BillsSM Rate (or such alternative index as may be selected by Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4) plus the Margin, as each exists on the Borrowing Date. Thereafter, the portion of the Base Rate attributable to the Reference BillsSM Rate (or such alternative index as may be selected by Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4) for any Borrowing Tranche shall be redetermined as of each renewal of such Borrowing Tranche pursuant to Section 3.3.3. The portion of the Margin attributable to the G-Fee shall be determined at the time of the Loan Request or Renewal Request and shall equal the applicable G-Fee as set forth on Schedule 3.2.

3.3. Interest Periods.

Upon each Loan Request for a new Base Rate funding, and upon each Renewal Request applicable to a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche (including, but not limited to, a Renewal Request pursuant to which Borrower shall convert all or a portion of the Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche to a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche), Borrower shall notify Lender of the period (the “Interest Period”) (which may only be (i) a thirty (30) day, ninety (90) day, one hundred and eighty (180) day or three hundred and sixty (360) day period) for which the Reference BillsSM Rate or LIBO Rate, as the case may be, shall be determined.

3.3.1. Interest Period to End on a Business Day.

If the last day of any Interest Period is not a Business Day, the Interest Period shall be deemed to mature on the Business Day immediately following such date.

3.3.2. No Interest Periods Beyond the Expiration Date.

Borrower shall not select or renew an Interest Period for any Base Rate Borrowing Tranche that would end after the Expiration Date. If at the time of any such selection or renewal the period of time remaining prior to the Expiration Date is less than thirty (30) days then such Borrowing Tranche shall bear interest at the Prime Rate. No Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche may remain outstanding in excess of thirty (30) days at any one time.

3.3.3. Renewals.

In the case of a redetermination of an Interest Period at the end of an Interest Period, for purposes of calculating interest due under the applicable Borrowing Tranche the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the first Business Day immediately following the last day of the preceding Interest Period (such date, the “Renewal Date”). For each Base Rate Borrowing Tranche, if no new Interest Period is specified within two (2) Business Days prior to the last day of such Interest Period, by delivery to Lender via facsimile of a fully completed, authorized and executed request therefor (a “Renewal Request”) in the form attached hereto as Schedule 3.3.3, the Borrowing Tranche shall be renewed for an Interest Period of thirty (30) days at the Base Rate then applicable to a Borrowing Tranche disbursed on the applicable Renewal Date having a thirty (30) day Interest Period. Borrower may convert a Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche to a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche or a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche to a Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche by delivering to Lender via facsimile, a fully completed, authorized and executed Renewal Request in the form attached hereto as Schedule 3.3.3. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) no Borrowing Tranche may be renewed with a principal amount of less than Three Million and NO/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) unless otherwise approved by Lender in its sole discretion and (ii) in the event the Facility Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.20 : 1:00, the Loan to Value Ratio is in excess of 70%, the notional amounts of the Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements and/or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements do not equal the Required Hedge Amount, or the Hedged Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.20 : 1.00, Borrower may renew or consolidate (but not increase the outstanding principal amount of) any Borrowing Tranche(s) then outstanding in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3.3, provided that, as of the date of such renewal or consolidation (a) no Event of Default, other than Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.6.1.1, 2.6.1.2 or 2.6.1.5, shall then exist, (b) Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.6.1.1, 2.6.1.2 or 2.6.1.5 shall have been for a period of less than ninety (90) days, and (c) Borrower is otherwise in full compliance with all other terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, including the provisions of Section 4.5. Borrower may assure compliance with Section 2.6.1.1, 2.6.1.2 and 2.6.1.5 pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3.

3.3.4. Interest After Default.

So long as (i) any payment under this Agreement remains past due for thirty (30) days or more, or (ii) any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, interest on all Borrowing Tranches shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance from the earlier of the due date of the first unpaid installment or the occurrence of such other Event of Default at the default rate set forth in the Revolving Credit Note. If the unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest are not paid in full on the Expiration Date, the unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest shall bear interest from the Expiration Date at the default rate set forth in the Revolving Credit Note. Borrower acknowledges that (a) its failure to make timely payments will cause Lender to incur additional expenses in servicing and processing the Loan, (b) during the time that any installment is delinquent for more than thirty (30) days, Lender will incur additional costs and expenses arising from its loss of the use of the money due and from the adverse impact on Lender’s ability to meet its other obligations and to take advantage of other investment opportunities, and (c) it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine those additional costs and expenses. Borrower also acknowledges that, during the time that any installment is delinquent for more than thirty (30) days or any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender’s risk of nonpayment will be materially increased and Lender is entitled to be compensated for such increased risk. Borrower agrees that the increase in the rate of interest set forth in the Revolving Credit Note represents a fair and reasonable estimate, taking into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Agreement, of the additional costs and expenses Lender will incur by reason of Borrower’s delinquent payment and the additional compensation Lender is entitled to receive for the increased risks of nonpayment associated with a delinquent loan.

3.3.5. Late Charge.

If any amount payable under this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note or any other Loan Document, other than the then outstanding amount of the Loan payable on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Revolving Credit Note, is not received by Lender as provided in the Revolving Credit Note, Borrower shall pay to Lender, immediately and without demand by Lender, a late charge as specified in the Revolving Credit Note. Borrower acknowledges that its failure to make timely payments will cause Lender to incur additional expenses in servicing and processing the Loan, and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine those additional expenses. Borrower agrees that the late charge payable specified in the Revolving Credit Note represents a fair and reasonable estimate, taking into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Agreement, of the additional expenses Lender will incur by reason of such late payment. The late charge is payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, any interest payable at the default rate specified in the Revolving Credit Note.

3.4. Reference BillsSM Rate Unascertainable: Illegality; Increased Costs.

3.4.1. Unascertainable.

In the event Xxxxxxx Mac shall at any time cease to designate any unsecured general obligations of Xxxxxxx Mac as “Reference BillsSM”, at its option, Lender may (i) select from time to time another unsecured general obligation of Xxxxxxx Mac having original maturities, most comparable to the term of the Interest Period for the applicable Borrowing Tranche, and issued by Xxxxxxx Mac at regularly scheduled auctions within the sixty (60) day period prior to the first day of such Interest Period, and the term “Reference BillsSM” as used herein shall mean such other unsecured general obligations as selected by Lender; or (ii) for any one or more Interest Periods, use the applicable LIBO Rate for purposes of determining the Base Rate for such Interest Period(s). If Xxxxxxx Mac has not conducted an auction of its Reference BillsSM or other unsecured general obligations within sixty (60) days prior to the first day of the Interest Period for the proposed Borrowing Tranche, the Base Rate shall be determined as the LIBO Rate plus the Margin for such Interest Period(s).

3.4.2. Illegality; Increased Costs.

At any time at which (i) either (x) the Reference BillsSM Rate shall not be available and the Base Rate shall be determined based on the LIBO Rate in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4.1 or (y) Borrower has previously delivered an Index Conversion Notice, and (ii) Lender shall have also reasonably determined that (a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBO Rate, (b) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank market, (c) the making, maintenance or funding of any Borrowing Tranche bearing interest in part at the LIBO Rate has been made unlawful by Lender’s compliance in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law, but other than as a result of any misconduct by Lender), (d) the Base Rate as determined by the LIBO Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of the establishment or maintaining of any such Borrowing Tranche, or (e) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Borrowing Tranche are not available to Lender in the London interbank market, then Lender shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3.

3.4.3. Lender’s Rights.

In the case of the events specified in items (i) and (ii) of Section 3.4.2 above, Lender shall promptly notify Borrower thereof. Upon the date as shall be specified in such notice, the obligation of Lender to make advances under any Borrowing Tranche(s) at the Base Rate shall be suspended until Lender shall have later notified Borrower of Lender’s reasonable determination that the circumstances set forth in Section 3.4.2 no longer exist. If at any time Lender notifies Borrower that it has made a determination under Section 3.4.2, then with respect to any Loan Request previously submitted but not yet funded and with respect to each Borrowing Tranche on which an Interest Period shall thereafter expire, the applicable Borrowing Tranche(s) shall from and after the date specified in such notice be deemed to bear interest utilizing an index reasonably determined by Lender to reflect the cost to Lender of establishing and maintaining any Borrowing Tranche. Any determination of the resulting alternative interest rate shall be entitled to a presumption of correctness absent manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in such event Borrower may elect to terminate this Agreement and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.14, provided that (i) Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall only terminate upon Borrower’s repayment of the Loan (ii) in the event such election shall occur at any time at which any Rate Swap Agreement is in effect, Borrower shall provide each counterparty with all necessary notice under each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement to terminate each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement as of the date of repayment in full of the Loan and the Borrower shall deposit with the Lender for payment to the counterparty of each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement, any payments due under any Qualified Rate Swap Agreement and all Hedge Fees and (iii) in the event such election shall occur at any time at which any Borrowing Tranches then outstanding shall have accrued interest at the alternative interest rate by operation of the provisions of this Section 3.4.3 for a period of at least thirty (30) consecutive days, Borrower shall not be obligated to pay the Prepayment Fee, liquidated Unused Facility Fee, liquidated Minimum Usage Fee, or liquidated Minimum Servicing Fee otherwise specified in Section 2.14.2 in connection with such termination.

3.5. LIBO Rate Conversion.

LIBO Rate shall be the index rate which shall apply to all Base Rate Borrowing Tranches from and after the effective date specified in Borrower’s notice electing to irrevocably utilize the LIBO Rate when determining the Base Rate (the “Index Conversion Notice”). Within ten (10) Business Days of Borrower’s request, which request shall not be made more often than once during the term of the Loan, Lender shall deliver to Borrower a revised schedule of G-Fees applicable to Base Rate Borrowing Tranches; in the event Borrower thereafter delivers the Index Conversion Notice to Lender within five (5) Business Days of Borrower’s receipt of said schedule, the revised G-Fees shall thenceforth irrevocably (i) apply to all Base Rate Borrowing Tranches and (ii) supercede the G-Fees presently set forth in Schedule 3.2. In the event Borrower fails to deliver the Index Conversion Notice within five (5) Business Days of Borrower’s receipt of the revised schedule, the revised G-Fees quoted to Borrower shall not be binding on Lender or Borrower, and Base Rate Borrowing Tranches shall continue to be based on the Reference BillsSM Rate.

4. PAYMENTS

4.1. Payments.

All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Unused Facility Fees, Minimum Usage Fees, Minimum Servicing Fees or other fees or amounts due from Borrower hereunder shall be due and payable on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind (unless expressly provided in the Loan Documents), including, but not limited to, notice of Lender’s intent to accelerate Borrower’s Obligations under the Loan and notice of such acceleration, all of which (unless expressly provided in the Loan Documents) are hereby waived by Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to Lender in immediately available funds when due. Lender’s Monthly Payment Statement shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the amount of principal of and interest on the Loan and other amounts owing under this Agreement, provided that Borrower may challenge the accuracy of any Monthly Payment Statement within one (1) year of the date of such Monthly Payment Statement.

4.2. Payment Dates.

Subject to the provisions of Section 4.3, interest on the Loan shall be payable in arrears and shall be due, together with all other amounts set forth on the applicable Monthly Payment Statement, prior to 12:00 noon Eastern Time on the first (1st) Business Day of any calendar month during the term hereof (the “Payment Date”), and shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by Servicer. Lender shall deliver to Borrower an invoice (the “Monthly Payment Statement”) detailing the interest, Unused Facility Fees, Minimum Usage Fees, Minimum Servicing Fees, Credit Enhancement Fees and other fees due and payable. Except in the case of a prepayment under Section 4.3, Lender shall deliver the Monthly Payment Statement detailing charges due for the current calendar month via fax at least five (5) Business Days prior to the first day of the succeeding calendar month. In the instance of a renewal of an Interest Period pursuant to Section 3.3.3, interest on such renewed Borrowing Tranche shall be due and payable on the next Payment Date, subject to any adjustments in interest rates, as if the Interest Period had not expired and then been renewed. Interest on prepayments under Section 4.3 shall be due on the date such prepayment is due. Interest on the principal amount of the Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated maturity date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

4.3. Prepayments.

4.3.1. Voluntary Prepayments.

Borrower shall have no right to prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, except as follows: (i) prepayment of the Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche, (ii) prepayment of a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche as required under Section 4.3.2, (iii) prepayment of a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche where Borrower has previously prepaid in advance all interest applicable to such Borrowing Tranche which would have otherwise accrued over the applicable Interest Period, (iv) any prepayment upon termination of this Agreement and the parties’ obligations hereunder in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.14,and (v) any payment upon the expiration of a Borrowing Tranche’s Interest Period.

4.3.2. Prepayment Fee Not Applicable (Mandatory Prepayment / Collateral Addition).

4.3.2.1. If at the time of the release of a portion of the Collateral pursuant to Section 2.11, Borrower shall be in violation of any of the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.6.1 (subject to the exception described in Section 2.11), Borrower may cure such violation prior to or simultaneously with such release by either (i) pledging collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements), or (ii) prepaying that portion of the Loan outstanding as is necessary to cause compliance with such Sublimit, without any Prepayment Fee or similar fee or penalty. Lender shall deliver to Borrower as soon as practicable, but in any event within two (2) Business Days prior to such release, a statement of the principal and interest due with respect to any required prepayment.

4.3.2.2. If at the time of a Valuation pursuant to Section 2.13 or a Material Adverse Change pursuant to Section 2.15, Borrower shall be in violation of any of the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.6.1, Borrower shall cure such violation within ninety (90) days of notice of such Valuation or Material Adverse Change, by either (i) pledging collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements), or (ii) prepaying that portion of the Loan outstanding as is necessary to cause compliance with such Sublimit, without any Prepayment Fee or similar fee or penalty. Lender shall deliver to Borrower within two (2) Business Days following the notice of Valuation or Material Adverse Change, as the case may be, a statement of the principal and interest due with respect to any required prepayment.

4.3.2.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein set forth, if Lender shall determine, at any time, that the Borrower has failed to comply with Section 2.6.1.1, Section 2.6.1.2 or Section 2.6.1.5, and the provisions of the foregoing Section 4.3.2.1 and Section 4.3.2.2 do not apply, Lender shall provide written notice of said non-compliance to Borrower. Borrower shall have ninety (90) days following receipt of said notice to cure the non-compliance with Section 2.6.1.1, Section 2.6.1.2 or Section 2.6.1.5 by either (i) pledging collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, cash, letters of credit, Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements), or (ii) prepaying that portion of the Loan outstanding as is necessary to cause compliance with the Sublimits, without any Prepayment Fee or similar fee or penalty. In the event that Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.6.1.1, Section 2.6.1.2 or Section 2.6.1.5 shall continue for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days following Borrower’s receipt of Lender’s notice pursuant to this Section 4.3.2.3, the same shall constitute an Event of Default.

4.3.2.4. In the event of a casualty or condemnation affecting any of the Collateral Pool Properties, any award and/or proceeds payable with respect to such casualty or condemnation and applied to Borrower’s Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Security Instrument shall be applied without any Prepayment Fee or other penalty, and this Agreement, and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents, may be terminated, at Borrower’s election, in accordance with Section 2.14.

4.3.2.5. Any mandatory prepayment of the Loan in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.3.2 shall be applied, as directed by Borrower, to a particular Borrowing Tranche or Borrowing Tranches or, in the absence of any specific direction from Borrower, as selected by Lender in its sole discretion.

4.4. Prepayment Fee.

Unless Borrower (i) repays a Borrowing Tranche accruing interest at the Prime Rate, (ii) repays all or a part of a Borrowing Tranche upon the expiration of such Borrowing Tranche’s Interest Period, (iii) terminates this Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 3.4.3, or (iv) prepays a portion of the Loan outstanding pursuant to Section 4.3.2, any prepayment under Section 4.3 shall be accompanied by a prepayment fee (the “Prepayment Fee”) which shall equal all of the interest, applicable to the particular Borrowing Tranche being prepaid, which would have otherwise accrued over the applicable Interest Period. The Prepayment Fee shall not constitute the payment of interest and therefore shall not be included in the calculation of Facility Debt Service Coverage Ratio or the determination of Borrower’s compliance with the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.6.1. In addition, upon Lender’s exercise of any right of acceleration under this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note, or any other Loan Document following an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay to Lender the Prepayment Fee on all Base Rate Borrowing Tranches outstanding at the time of acceleration in addition to all interest accrued thereon, and all other sums and fees payable to Lender hereunder.

4.5. Additional Payment Obligations.

4.5.1. Additional G-Fee Obligation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein set forth, if Lender shall determine, at any time, that Borrower has failed to comply with Section 2.6.1.1, Section 2.6.1.2 or Section 2.6.1.5, Lender shall provide written notice of the same to Borrower. After the expiration of fifteen (15) Business Days following Borrower’s receipt of said notice, if such non-compliance with Section 2.6.1.1, Section 2.6.1.2, or Section 2.6.1.5 has not been cured pursuant to the terms of Section 4.3, the G-Fee applicable to all Borrowing Tranches then outstanding (and thereafter renewed) shall automatically increase by an additional one hundred basis points (.0100) over the applicable G-Fee until such time as Borrower shall cure said non-compliance. In the event that Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.6.1.1, Section 2.6.1.2 or Section 2.6.1.5 shall continue for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days following Borrower’s receipt of Lender’s notice pursuant to this Section 4.5, the same shall constitute an Event of Default.

4.5.2. Rate Cap Escrow. Upon the request of Lender, if any Qualifying Rate Cap Agreement or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreement necessary for compliance with Section 2.6.1.5 has an initial term of less than five (5) years, Borrower shall pay monthly payments (determined from time to time by Lender in its sole discretion) into an escrow account to be established by Lender pursuant to Lender’s then prevailing interest rate cap replacement escrow policies (such account, the “Replacement Hedge Escrow”).

4.5.2.1. Borrower and Lender agree that all moneys deposited into the Replacement Hedge Escrow shall be held by Lender in an interest bearing account, and any interest earned on such moneys shall be added to the principal balance of the Replacement Hedge Escrow. Lender shall not be responsible for any losses resulting from investment of moneys in the Replacement Hedge Escrow or for obtaining any specific level or percentage of earnings on such investment.

4.5.2.2. Lender shall be entitled to deduct from the Replacement Hedge Escrow a one time fee for establishing the Replacement Hedge Escrow in an amount not to exceed Two Hundred and NO/100 Dollars ($200.00).

4.5.2.3. Subject to the Security Instrument and the other rights of Lender set forth in the Loan Documents, the Replacement Hedge Escrow shall be maintained for the payment of the costs of purchasing replacement Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements to replace any and all Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements and/or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements with initial terms expiring before the Maturity Date.

4.5.2.4. If Borrower purchases such replacement Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements as are necessary for compliance with Section 2.6.1.5, Borrower may request reimbursement for such Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements from Lender to the extent of available funds held in the Replacement Hedge Escrow not otherwise determined by Lender to be necessary for future replacement Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements; such request shall be in writing and shall include evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of said Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements have been paid in full. If Borrower purchases a replacement Qualifying Rate Swap Agreement having a term expiring on the Maturity Date, whether in place of an expiring Qualifying Rate Cap Agreement or an expiring Qualifying Rate Swap Agreement, all amounts in the Replacement Hedge Escrow which are not otherwise determined by Lender to be necessary for future replacement Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements shall be released to Borrower. Disbursements from the Replacement Hedge Escrow shall be made no more frequently than quarter annually. Lender shall refuse to make a disbursement from the Replacement Hedge Escrow unless (i) no Event of Default shall exist beyond any applicable cure period pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) all representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are and remain true at the time of the disbursement request.

4.5.2.5. If Borrower fails to purchase Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements and/or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements necessary to maintain compliance with Section 2.6.1.5, Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to purchase Qualifying Rate Cap Agreements in the name of Borrower, and Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed the attorney in fact of Borrower, such appointment being coupled with an interest, to enter into such contracts, incur such obligations, enforce any contracts or agreements made by or on behalf of Borrower and do any and all things necessary or proper to obtain a Qualifying Rate Cap Agreement, including signing Borrower’s name on any contracts and documents as may be deemed necessary by Lender.

4.5.2.6. In no event shall Lender be required to expend its own funds to purchase any Qualifying Rate Cap Agreement, but Lender may, in its sole discretion, advance such funds or draw upon funds from the Replacement Hedge Escrow. Any funds advanced by Lender pursuant to this Section 4.5.2, from sources other than the Replacement Hedge Escrow (including without limitation, Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees), shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, secured by the Security Instrument and made payable to Lender by Borrower in accordance with the provisions of the Security Instrument pertaining to the protection of Lender’s security and advances made by Lender.

4.5.2.7. Borrower hereby conveys, pledges, transfers and grants to Lender a security interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable law in and to all amounts in the Replacement Hedge Escrow, as same may increase or decrease from time to time, for the purpose of securing Borrower’s Obligations under this Agreement and to further secure Borrower’s Obligations under the Note, Security Instrument and other Loan Documents.

4.5.3. Rate Swap Enhancement Program.

At Borrower’s request, and in order for any Rate Swap Agreement to be considered a Qualifying Rate Swap Agreement, Lender shall guarantee Borrower’s obligations under such Rate Swap Agreement to pay the applicable counterparty the product of the stipulated fixed pay rate times the applicable notional amount. Lender shall provide such guaranty subject to the terms and conditions of Lender’s then current interest rate swap enhancement program, including without limitation, that Lender shall only guaranty Rate Swap Agreements that (i) are “at market” or “par swaps” and (ii) do not have an aggregate notional amount in excess of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan. As consideration for Lender’s guaranty of Borrower’s obligation(s) under this Section 4.5.3, Borrower shall pay to Lender, on a monthly basis, an annual amount equal to the product of the notional amounts of any and all Qualifying Rate Swap Agreements times the applicable Credit Enhancement Fee. Borrower’s obligations to pay the Credit Enhancement Fee shall be secured by the Collateral as if part of the Loan.

4.5.3.1. In the event of a partial prepayment of the principal amount of the Loan, if after giving effect to such prepayment, the aggregate notional amount of the Rate Swap Agreements will exceed the remaining principal amount of the Loan, the Borrower shall (a) with the consent of Lender and prior to such prepayment, terminate one or more Rate Swap Agreements in whole or in part so that the aggregate notional amount of the Rate Swap Agreements is equal to or less than the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, or (b) allocate such excess notional amount of the Rate Swap Agreement(s) to any other outstanding variable rate loan from the Lender to the extent the outstanding principal amount of such variable rate loan is unhedged by a rate swap agreement. To the extent a Rate Swap Agreement obtained hereunder is allocated to a variable rate loan from the Lender other than the Loan, the fees paid by Borrower to the Lender for the Lender’s credit enhancement of the Borrower’s obligations under the Rate Swap Agreement shall be governed by the credit agreement or other loan documents governing the Borrower’s obligations with respect to the loan to which the Rate Swap Agreement has been allocated. Prior to terminating any Rate Swap Agreement in whole or in part as set forth in (a) above, Borrower shall deliver to Lender any Hedge Fees (as defined in Section 2.14.2.1(v)) with respect to such termination.

4.6. Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances.

4.6.1. Increased Costs Resulting from Taxes, Etc.

If any change in any Law, guideline or interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance with any written request or directive of any Official Body (other than as a result of any misconduct by Lender) which is applicable to Lender:

4.6.1.1. subjects Lender to any tax or changes the basis of taxation with respect to this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note, the Loan or payments by Borrower of any principal, interest, fees, or other amounts due from Borrower hereunder or under the Revolving Credit Note (except for taxes on the overall net income of Lender);

4.6.1.2. imposes upon Lender any condition or denies Lender any right, the result of which is to increase the cost to, reduce the income receivable by, or impose any expense (including breakage costs) upon Lender with respect to this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note or the making, maintenance or funding of any Borrowing Tranche by an amount which Lender in its discretion deems to be material;

then Lender shall from time to time notify Borrower of the amount determined in good faith (using any averaging and attribution methods employed in good faith) by Lender to be necessary to compensate Lender for such increase in cost. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by Borrower to Lender thirty (30) days after such notice is given.

4.6.2. Termination.

Upon the occurrence of any event described in Section 4.6.1, Borrower may elect to terminate this Agreement and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.14 without any Prepayment Fee or similar fee or penalty, and Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall terminate upon Borrower’s repayment in full of the Loan, provided that no such termination shall be effective until such time as Borrower shall provide each counterparty with all necessary notice under each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement to terminate each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement as of the date of repayment in full of the Loan and the Borrower shall deposit with the Lender for payment to the counterparty of each Qualified Rate Swap Agreement, any payments due under any Qualified Rate Swap Agreement and all Hedge Fees.

4.6.3. Indemnity.

In addition to the compensation required by Section 4.6.1, Borrower shall jointly and severally indemnify Lender and Servicer against all liabilities, losses or expenses (including breakage costs) which Lender and/or Servicer sustains or incurs as a consequence of any:

4.6.3.1. attempt by Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Request under Section 2.6, any request to release a Collateral Pool Property under Section 2.11, or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.3, or

4.6.3.2. default by Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including without limitation any Qualifying Rate Cap Agreement or Qualifying Rate Swap Agreement and including any failure of Borrower to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Prepayment Fee, Unused Facility Fee, Minimum Usage Fee, Minimum Servicing Fee, Credit Enhancement Fee or any other amount due hereunder.

If Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by Borrower to Lender thirty (30) days after such notice is given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not have any obligation to Lender under this Section 4.6.3 with respect to any loss or expense caused by or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct or omission of Lender.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision, and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties as to the rights granted and the obligations assumed in this Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

9.10. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue.

This Agreement, and any Loan Document which does not itself expressly identify the Law that is to apply to it, shall be governed by the Laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Borrower agrees that any controversy arising under or in relation to this Agreement or any other Loan Document which does not expressly identify the Law that is to apply to it, shall be litigated exclusively in the courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The state and federal courts and authorities with jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Virginia shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all controversies which shall arise under or in relation to this Agreement. Borrower irrevocably consents to service, jurisdiction, and venue of such courts for any such litigation and waives any other venue to which it might be entitled by virtue of domicile, habitual residence or otherwise.

9.11. Prior Understanding.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents supersede all prior understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties hereto and thereto relating to the transactions provided for herein and therein, including any prior confidentiality agreements and commitments.

9.12. Duration; Survival.

All representations and warranties of Borrower contained herein or made in connection herewith shall survive the funding of the initial advance hereunder and shall not be waived by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation by Lender, the funding of any Borrowing Tranche, or payment in full of the Loan. All covenants and agreements of Borrower contained herein shall continue in full force and effect from and after the date hereof so long as Borrower may borrow hereunder and until the later of (i) the Expiration Date or (ii) the payment in full of the Obligations. All covenants and agreements of Borrower contained herein relating to the payment of principal, interest, premiums, additional compensation or expenses and indemnification, including those set forth in the Note, shall survive payment in full of the Loan and the Expiration Date until the full and final payment of all such principal, interest, premiums, additional compensation, expenses or indemnification due under this Agreement and the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, in no event shall (a) the release of Lender’s Lien on any Collateral Pool Property, (b) the maturity, expiration or early termination of the Revolving Credit Note, or (c) the expiration or early termination of this Agreement, be deemed to terminate any covenants, agreements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents to the extent that such covenant, agreement, representation or warranty shall, by its terms, survive the release, maturity, expiration or early termination of this Agreement, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents.

9.13. Disclosure of Information.

Lender may furnish information regarding Borrower or the Collateral Pool Properties to third parties with an existing or prospective interest in the servicing, enforcement, evaluation, performance, purchase or securitization of the Loan, including, but not limited to, trustees, master servicers, special servicers, rating agencies, and organizations maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of multifamily mortgage loans. Borrower irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have under applicable Law to prohibit such disclosure, including, but not limited to, any right of privacy.

9.14. Exceptions.

The representations, warranties and covenants contained herein shall be independent of each other, and no exception to any representation, warranty or covenant shall be deemed to be an exception to any other representation, warranty or covenant contained herein unless expressly provided, nor shall any such exceptions be deemed to permit any action or omission that would be in contravention of applicable Law.

9.15. Relationship of Parties; No Third Parties Benefited.

The relationship between Lender and Borrower shall be solely that of creditor and debtor, respectively, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall create any other relationship between Lender and Borrower. No creditor of any party to this Agreement and no other person shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, (i) an agreement, if any, including any Servicing Agreement, between Lender and Servicer for interim advancement of funds shall constitute a contractual obligation of such Servicer that is independent of the obligation of Borrower for the payment of the Loan, (ii) Borrower shall not be a third party beneficiary of any Servicing Agreement, and (iii) no payment by Servicer under any such agreement will reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Loan or any interest accrued thereon.

9.16. Authority to File Notices.

Borrower irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution, to file for record, at Borrower’s cost and expense and in Borrower’s name, any notices that Lender considers reasonably necessary or desirable to protect the Collateral.

9.17. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.

BORROWER AND LENDER EACH (A) COVENANTS AND AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ISSUE ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES AS BORROWER AND LENDER THAT IS TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY A JURY AND (B) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ISSUE TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT EXISTS NOW OR IN THE FUTURE. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS SEPARATELY GIVEN BY EACH PARTY, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WITH THE BENEFIT OF COMPETENT LEGAL COUNSEL.
