ARTICLE 2

GENERAL TERMS

Section 2.1 The Loan

Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender hereby agrees to make, and Borrower hereby agrees to accept, the Loan on the Closing Date.

Section 2.2 Disbursement to Borrower

Borrower may request and receive only one borrowing in respect of the Loan and any amount borrowed and repaid in respect of the Loan may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.3 The Note, Pledge Agreements and Loan Documents

The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note and this Agreement and secured by the Pledge Agreements and the other Loan Documents.

Section 2.4 Interest Rate

(a) General. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue at the Interest Rate from the Closing Date through and including the last day of the Interest Accrual Period during which the Maturity Date occurs. Except as otherwise set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, interest shall be paid in arrears.

(b) Unavailability of LIBOR Rate. Subject to Section 2.4(g), in the event that Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate (and LIBOR has not been succeeded by an Alternate Index as set forth in Section 2.4(g) below), then Lender shall forthwith give notice by telephone of such determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) day prior to the last day of the related Interest Accrual Period. If such notice is given, the Loan, commencing with the first (1st) day of the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period, shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan bearing interest based on the Base Rate Interest Rate in effect on the related Determination Date, and thereafter the Interest Rate shall be the Base Rate Interest Rate.

If, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Loan has been converted to a Base Rate Loan and thereafter: (i) Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that the event(s) or circumstance(s) which resulted in such conversion shall no longer be applicable, Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower, and the Base Rate Interest Rate shall convert to the LIBOR Rate effective on the first (1st) day of the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period; or (ii) if LIBOR cannot be determined and has been succeeded by an Alternate Index pursuant to Section 2.4(g) below, then Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower and convert the Base Rate Loan to an Alternate Rate Loan by delivering to Borrower notice of such conversion no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City Time), three (3) Business Days prior to the next succeeding Determination Date, in which event the Base Rate Loan shall be converted to an Alternate Rate Loan from, after and including the first day of the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to elect to convert a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, or to convert a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan or an Alternate Rate Loan.

(c) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate and all references in the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the “Interest Rate” shall be deemed to refer to the Default Rate. Interest at the Default Rate shall be computed from the occurrence of the Event of Default until the earlier of (i) the actual receipt and collection of the Debt (or that portion thereof that is then due) and (ii) the cure of such Event of Default. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the Debt, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and shall be secured by the Pledge Agreements. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default; the acceptance of any payment from Borrower shall not be deemed to cure or constitute a waiver of any Event of Default; and Lender retains its rights under the Note, this

Agreement and the other Loan Documents to accelerate and to continue to demand payment of the Debt upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, despite any payment by Borrower to Lender.

(d) Interest Calculation. Interest shall be computed based on the daily rate produced assuming a three hundred sixty (360) day year, multiplied by the actual number of days elapsed during each Interest Accrual Period. Borrower understands and acknowledges that such interest accrual method results in more interest accruing on the Loan than if either a thirty (30) day month and a three hundred sixty (360) day year or the actual number of days and a three hundred sixty five (365) day year were used to compute the accrual of interest on the Loan. Lender shall determine the Interest Rate applicable to the Debt in accordance with this Agreement and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The books and records of Lender shall be prima facie evidence of all sums owing to Lender from time to time under this Agreement, but the failure to record any such information shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents.

(e) Selected Day and Securitization Closing Date; Securitization Interest Adjustments. (i) Lender may in its sole discretion designate the Securitization Closing Date by providing not less than twenty-four (24) hours prior notice to Borrower. Lender may in its sole discretion designate a day of the calendar month as the Selected Day for purposes of establishing, in accordance with the definition of “Interest Accrual Period”, the beginning and ending dates of the Interest Accrual Period that commences in the month in which the Securitization Closing Date occurs (and, to the extent contemplated in the definition of Interest Accrual Period, the prior month) and each Interest Accrual Period thereafter. In lieu of such designation, Lender may elect that the Interest Accrual Period with respect to the first Payment Date after the Securitization Closing Date and each Payment Date thereafter shall be the calendar month preceding such Payment Date. The designation of the Selected Day or election of calendar-month Interest Accrual Periods shall be a one-time event; once made, such designation or election shall apply for purposes of establishing, in accordance with the definition of “Interest Accrual Period”, the beginning and ending dates of the Interest Accrual Period that commences in the month in which the Securitization Closing Date occurs (and, to the extent contemplated in the definition of Interest Accrual Period, the prior month) and each Interest Accrual Period thereafter.

(ii) With respect to any portion of any Interest Accrual Period that also comprises all or any portion of a Securitization Initialization Period, if the amount of interest payable by Borrower hereunder (based on the Interest Rate using LIBOR as of the applicable Determination Date) is less than the amount of interest which would be payable if the Interest Rate were determined using the Securitization Initialization Period LIBOR in lieu of LIBOR (such deficiency being the “Securitization Interest Adjustment Amount” for such Interest Accrual Period), then Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Payment Date related to any such Interest Accrual Period (or, if such Payment Date occurred prior to the Securitization Closing Date, then on the next succeeding Payment Date) the Securitization Interest Adjustment Amount.

(iii) Similarly, if Lender exercises its option pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 2.4(e) to elect calendar Interest Accrual Periods for Payment Dates after the Securitization Closing Date, in respect of any portion of the first such calendar Interest Accrual

Period that overlaps with an Interest Accrual Period with respect to which a payment was already made on a prior Payment Date, in respect of the number of days of overlap, Borrower shall be credited with the interest already paid and, on the first Payment Date after the Securitization Closing Date, shall be obligated to pay in respect of such overlapping days only an amount equal to the greater of (A)(1) the amount of interest accrued for such overlapping days using LIBOR as determined two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of the month prior to the Securitization Month minus (2) the amount of interest accrued for such overlapping days using the LIBOR determined as of the Determination Date in the month prior to the Securitization Month and (B) zero.

(iv) In the event that Lender changes the Selected Day to a day pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 2.4(e) to a day that is earlier in the month than the Selected Day as previously defined, then, with respect to the first Payment Date after the Securitization Closing Date and the portion (if any) of the applicable Interest Accrual Period that does not overlap with the Securitization Initialization Period, if Borrower has already paid the amount of interest it owed in respect of such non-overlapping portion as calculated prior to such change in the Selected Day on the most recent Payment Date prior to such change in the Selected Day, then Borrower shall not owe any further amount of interest in respect of such non-overlapping portion.

(f) Usury Savings. This Agreement and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received on the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and as provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents, under the laws of such state or states whose laws are held by any court of competent jurisdiction to govern the interest rate provisions of the Loan (such rate, the “Maximum Legal Rate”). If, by the terms of the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due on the Loan at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder (and any such payments shall not require the payment of a Spread Maintenance Premium or any other prepayment premium). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

(g) If at any time the Loan is outstanding as a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan and Lender has determined in good faith that LIBOR cannot be determined and LIBOR has been succeeded by an Alternate Index, then the Loan shall be converted from a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan, as applicable, to an Alternate Rate Loan, provided that Lender shall have received (i) an opinion of nationally recognized REMIC counsel as to the compliance of such conversion with applicable REMIC requirements as determined under the Code, the regulations, revenue rulings, revenue procedures and other administrative, legislative

and judicial guidance relating to the tax treatment of REMIC Trusts (which such opinion shall be, in form and substance and from a provider, in each case, acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion and acceptable to the Rating Agencies), (ii) a Rating Agency Confirmation in connection with such conversion, and (iii) evidence satisfactory to Lender that such conversion does not violate ERISA. Lender shall provide notice of the foregoing conversion by giving notice of such determination in writing to Borrower at least five (5) Business Days prior to the next succeeding Determination Date. If such notice is given, the Loan shall be converted, as of the first day of the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period, to an Alternate Rate Loan. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to convert a LIBOR Rate Loan to an Alternate Rate Loan, or to convert an Alternate Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan.

If, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Loan has been converted to an Alternate Rate Loan and, thereafter, such Alternate Index cannot be determined, then Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower and convert the Alternate Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan by delivering to Borrower notice of such conversion no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City Time), three (3) Business Days prior to the next succeeding Determination Date, in which event the Alternate Rate Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan from, after and including the first day of the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period. If the Loan has been converted from an Alternate Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to the foregoing and, thereafter, Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that the event(s) or circumstance(s) which resulted in such conversion shall no longer be applicable, Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower, and the Base Rate Interest Rate shall convert to the Alternate Rate Interest Rate effective on the first (1st) day of the next succeeding Interest Accrual Period. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to elect to convert an Alternate Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan.

Section 2.5 Loan Payments

(a) Payment Before Maturity. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender interest for the Interim Interest Accrual Period and on each Payment Date thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender all interest that has accrued or will accrue during the Interest Accrual Period in which such Payment Date (or Maturity Date, as applicable) occurs.

(b) Payment on Maturity. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Pledge Agreements and the other Loan Documents.

(c) Extension of the Maturity Date. Borrower shall have the option to extend the term of the Loan beyond the Initial Maturity Date for five (5) successive terms of one (1) year each (each, an “Extension Option”) to (v) the Payment Date occurring in June 2021, (w) the Payment Date occurring in June 2022, (x) the Payment Date occurring in June 2023, (y) the Payment Date occurring in June 2024 and (z) the Payment Date occurring in June 2025 (each such date, an “Extended Maturity Date” and each such one-year period an “Extension Term”),

respectively, and, as to each Extension Option, upon satisfaction of the following terms and conditions:

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the applicable Extension Option is exercised and on the date that the applicable extension term is commenced;

(ii) Borrower shall notify Lender of its irrevocable election to extend the Maturity Date as aforesaid not earlier than three (3) months, and no later than one (1) month, prior to the then applicable Maturity Date;

(iii) Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Lender prior to the commencement of such Extension Term, a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, which Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be effective commencing on the first day following the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which such Extension Term commences and shall have a term extending through and including the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which the Maturity Date, as extended, falls; provided, however, the confirmation evidencing such Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, any guaranty or guaranties therefor, the executed counterparts to the Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any opinion from counsel to the Acceptable Counterparty may be delivered within a reasonable period of time after the commencement of such Extension Term;

(iv) the Mortgage Loan shall have been extended in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement;

(v) the Junior Mezzanine Loan shall have been extended in accordance with the terms of the Junior Mezzanine Loan Agreement;

(vi) in connection with the exercise of each of the fourth and fifth Extension Options, the LIBOR margin, Alternate Rate Spread or Base Rate Spread, as applicable, shall be increased by 0.125% for each such Extension Option;

(vii) in connection with (A) the exercise of the fourth Extension Option, the Debt Yield as of the end of the third Extension Term shall be at least 10.40% and (B) the exercise of the fifth Extension Option, the Debt Yield as of the end of the fourth Extension Term shall be at least 10.40% in each case, provided that Borrower may prepay the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the purposes of satisfying the Debt Yield required under this subclause 2.5(c)(vii); and

(viii) Borrower shall have paid all of Lender’s reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, in connection with Borrower’s exercise of each applicable Extension Option; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to pay any consent, processing, administrative or similar fee in connection with Borrower’s exercise of any Extension Option.

All references in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents to the Maturity Date shall mean the applicable Extended Maturity Date in the event the applicable Extension Option is exercised.

(d) Application of Payments. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, all monthly payments made as scheduled pursuant to this Agreement and the Note shall be applied first to the payment of interest computed at the Interest Rate, and the balance toward the reduction of the principal amount of the Debt (and, in connection with any New Mezzanine Loan or any Loan Bifurcation, be applied sequentially among any components within such New Mezzanine Loan or Loan Bifurcation). All voluntary and involuntary prepayments on the Debt shall be applied, to the extent thereof, to accrued but unpaid interest on the amount prepaid, to the outstanding principal amount, and any other sums due and unpaid to Lender in connection with the Loan, in such manner and order as Lender may elect in its sole and absolute discretion, including, but not limited to, application to principal installments in inverse order of maturity. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payment made on the Debt shall be applied to accrued but unpaid interest, late charges, accrued fees, the unpaid principal amount of the Debt, and any other sums due and unpaid to Lender in connection with the Loan, in such manner and order as Lender may elect in its sole and absolute discretion. The Monthly Payment Amount shall be applied to Note A-1, Note A-2, and Note A-3 on a pari passu basis.

(e) Method and Place of Payment.

(i) Each payment by Borrower hereunder shall be made to Lender at its offices or at such other place as Lender may designate from time to time in writing.

(ii) All payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Note shall be made to Lender not later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time.

(iii) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the first Business Day preceding such Payment Date.

(iv) All payments made by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without any deduction for, any setoff, defense or counterclaims.

(v) Remittances in payment of any part of the indebtedness other than in the required amount in immediately available U.S. funds shall not, regardless of any receipt or credit issued therefor, constitute payment until the required amount is actually received by the holder hereof in immediately available U.S. funds and shall be made and accepted subject to the condition that any check or draft may be handled for collection in accordance with the practices of the collecting bank or banks.

(f) Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or other payment due under the Loan Documents (other than the outstanding principal amount of the Loan due on the Maturity Date) is not paid by Borrower on or prior to the date the same is due (after taking into account the payment date convention set forth in Section 2.5(e) hereof) (or such greater period, if any, required by applicable Legal Requirements), Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of four percent (4%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable Legal Requirements in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in

handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Pledge Agreements and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law. In the event that any late payment charges are received, such amounts shall be applied to Note A-1, Note A-2, and Note A-3 on a pari passu basis.

(g) Additional Payment Provisions.

(i) If at any time after the date hereof, Lender (which shall include, for purposes of this Section, any corporation controlling Lender and any participant of Lender’s rights hereunder) reasonably determines that due to the adoption or modification of any Legal Requirement regarding taxation, Lender’s required levels of reserves, deposits, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or capital (including any allocation of capital requirements or conditions), or similar requirements, or any interpretation or administration thereof by any Tribunal or compliance of Lender with any of such requirements, has or would have the effect of (A) increasing Lender’s costs relating to the Loan, or (B) reducing the yield or rate of return of Lender on the Loan, to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for the adoption or modification of any such Legal Requirements, Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days of any request by Lender, pay to Lender such additional amounts as (in Lender’s sole judgment, after good faith and reasonable computation) will compensate Lender for such increase in costs or reduction in yield or rate of return of Lender (a “Consequential Loss”). No failure by Lender to immediately demand payment of any additional amounts payable hereunder shall constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand payment of such amounts at any subsequent time. Nothing herein contained shall be construed or so operate as to require Borrower to pay any interest, fees, costs or charges greater than is permitted by applicable law.

(ii) If any requirement of law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain a Loan with the Interest Rate being based on LIBOR as contemplated hereunder, (A) the obligation of Lender hereunder to make such Loan based on LIBOR or to convert the Loan from the Base Rate Interest Rate to the LIBOR Rate shall be canceled forthwith and (B) any outstanding LIBOR Rate Loan shall be converted automatically to a loan bearing interest at the Base Rate Interest Rate on the next succeeding Payment Date or within such earlier period as required by law. Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any costs incurred by Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the LIBOR Rate Loan hereunder. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.5(g)(ii), Lender shall provide Borrower with not less than ninety (90) days written notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate Lender for such additional costs. Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iii) If any change in any requirement of law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) hereafter issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

shall hereafter impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR (or the Alternate Index, as applicable) hereunder,

shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by Lender to be material;

shall subject Lender to any Taxes (other than (I) Indemnified Taxes, (II) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (III) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, or other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

shall hereafter impose on Lender any other condition (other than Taxes);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which Lender deems to be material as determined by Lender. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.5(g)(iii), Lender shall provide Borrower with not less than ninety (90) days written notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

(iv) Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and to hold Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (A) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on a LIBOR Rate Loan or Alternate Rate Loan, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Rate Loan or Alternate Rate Loan hereunder, (B) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of the LIBOR Rate Loan or the Alternate Rate Loan that did not include all interest which had accrued (or would have accrued) at the Interest Rate through the end of the related Interest Accrual Period, including, without limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the LIBOR Rate Loan or the Alternate Rate Loan hereunder, and (C) the conversion (for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary) of the Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate or Base Rate Interest Rate to the Alternate Rate Interest Rate or with respect to any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan then bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate on a date other than the Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Interest Accrual Period, including, without

limitation, such loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Rate Loan or Alternate Rate Loan hereunder (the amounts referred to in clauses (A), (B) and (C) are herein referred to collectively as the “Breakage Costs”). This provision shall survive payment of the Note in full and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(v) Within fifteen (15) days after request by Lender (or at the time of any prepayment), Borrower shall pay to Lender such amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for any loss, cost, expense, penalty, claim or liability, including any loss incurred in obtaining, prepaying, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds from third parties and any loss of yield, as determined by Lender in its judgment reasonably exercised incurred by it with respect to the Loan as a result of the payment or prepayment of any amount on a date other than the date such amount is required or permitted to be paid or prepaid; provided that Lender delivers to Borrower a certificate as to the amounts of such costs described herein, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Lender shall have no obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the funding or maintaining of the Loan or any portion thereof. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive any termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the Note and shall not be waived by any delay by Lender in seeking such compensation.

Section 2.6 Loan Prepayments

(a) Voluntary. Except as otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 2.9 hereof, no voluntary prepayments, whether in whole or in part, of the Loan or any other amount at any time due and owing under this Agreement can be made by Borrower or any other Person without the express prior written consent of Lender, and Lender shall have no obligation to accept any prepayment except when made in accordance with the terms hereof. Borrower may, on any Business Day at its option and upon giving Lender not less than thirty (30) (and not more than ninety (90)) days prior written notice (such notice being revocable or may be modified by Borrower on at least two (2) Business Days prior written notice to Lender provided Borrower pays all of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the notice of prepayment), prepay the Loan (i) on or before the Spread Maintenance Date, in whole or in part, with payment of the Spread Maintenance Premium on that portion of the Loan which exceeds an amount equal to the Free Prepayment Amount, and (ii) after the Spread Maintenance Date, in whole or in part, without payment of any premium, fee or penalty. Any prepayment shall include the payment of all additional amounts required to be paid by Borrower and all other amounts owing by Borrower to Lender under the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, (A) any Breakage Costs incurred by Lender in connection with the cancellation or termination of a LIBOR (or the Alternate Index, as applicable) or swap contract entered into in connection with the Loan, and (B) Compensating Interest; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to pay any consent, processing, administrative or similar fee in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.6(a). As a condition to any prepayment contemplated by this Section 2.6(a), Borrower shall have delivered evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Mortgage Loan and Junior Mezzanine Loan are simultaneously being prepaid on a pro-rata basis in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement and Junior Mezzanine Loan Agreement, respectively.

(b) Mandatory; Liquidation Event.

(i) In the event of a Liquidation Event, Borrower shall cause the related Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service to be deposited directly into an account designated by Lender. On each date on which Lender actually receives a distribution of Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service, if such date is a Payment Date, other than during the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service shall be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Note in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service, together with (a) in the event that such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service are received on or before a Payment Date, interest accruing on such amount calculated through and including the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which such Payment Date occurs, or (b) in the event that such Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service are received on a date after a Payment Date, interest accruing on such amount calculated through and including the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which the next Payment Date occurs and all other sums then due and payable in connection with such prepayment.

(ii) Borrower shall immediately notify Lender of any Liquidation Event once Borrower has knowledge of such event. Borrower shall be deemed to have knowledge of (i) a sale (other than a foreclosure sale) of any Individual Property on the date on which a contract of sale for such sale is entered into, and a foreclosure sale, on the date written notice of such foreclosure sale is given, and (ii) a refinancing of the Property, on the date on which a commitment for such refinancing is entered into. The provisions of this Section 2.6(b) shall not be construed to contravene in any manner the restrictions and other provisions regarding refinancing of the Mortgage Loan or Transfer of the Property set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(c) Any prepayments received hereunder, including, without limitation, the application of Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service, shall (i) be applied to Note A-1, Note A-2, and Note A-3 on a pari passu basis (and, in connection with any New Mezzanine Loan or any Loan Bifurcation, be applied sequentially among any components within such New Mezzanine Loan or Loan Bifurcation, except during the continuance of an Event of Default) and (ii) proportionately reduce the Allocated Loan Amounts of all Properties (provided that this clause (ii) shall not apply to any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.9 hereof). Upon any voluntary prepayment of the Loan in accordance with the terms hereof (other than a paydown pursuant to Section 2.9 hereof, which such paydown shall be calculated in accordance with Section 2.9(d) hereof), each Allocated Loan Amount shall be decreased by an amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of such payment and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the applicable Allocated Loan Amount (prior to the adjustment in question) and the denominator of which is the total of all Allocated Loan Amounts (prior to the adjustment in question).

Section 2.7 Taxes

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of Borrower) requires the deduction or withholding of

any Tax from any such payment by Borrower, then Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.7) the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.

(c) Indemnification. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.7) payable or paid by Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.7, such Loan Party shall deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

(e) Status of Lenders.

(i) In the event Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, Lender shall deliver to Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower as will enable Borrower to determine whether or not Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.7(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A) Lender shall deliver to Borrower from time to time upon the reasonable request of Borrower executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) if Lender is or becomes a Foreign Lender, Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date hereof if Lender is already a Foreign Lender, or on or prior to the date on which Lender becomes a Foreign Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower, whichever of the following is applicable):

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code, which shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Borrower) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that Lender has complied with Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(E) Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.7 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.7), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.7 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.7(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.7(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.7(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional

amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.7 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 2.8 Intentionally Omitted

Section 2.9 Property Releases

Mortgage Borrower may obtain the release of an Individual Property from the Lien of the Mortgage thereon (and related Mortgage Loan Documents) pursuant to Section 2.9 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, and Borrower shall have the right to obtain the release of the portion of the Collateral related to such Individual Property being released (other than those expressly stated to survive), upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:

(a) No Event of Default shall then exist (other than a non-monetary Event of Default that is specific to the Individual Property being released pursuant to this Section 2.9 and which non-monetary Event of Default would be cured as a result of the release of the applicable Individual Property);

(b) The amount of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan to be prepaid in accordance with the terms hereof shall equal or exceed the Release Price for the Individual Property being released pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement for which the portion of the Collateral relates, and such prepayment shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment for all purposes hereunder;

(c) Borrower shall provide Lender with at least thirty (30) days but no more than ninety (90) days prior written notice of its request to obtain a release of the Collateral related to the Individual Property (the “Release Date”) (such notice being revocable or may be modified by Borrower on at least two (2) Business Days prior written notice to Lender provided Borrower pays all of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the notice of intended release);

(d) Borrower shall prepay the portion of the Note equal to the Release Price of the Individual Property being released pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement for which the portion of the Collateral relates (together with all (i) accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid, (ii) Breakage Costs, if applicable, (iii) Compensating Interest, if applicable and (iv) the applicable Spread Maintenance Premium (if any) pursuant to Section 2.6(a) hereof) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Such prepayment in the amount of the applicable Release Price (and any additional amounts prepaid pursuant to Section 2.9(f) hereof) shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, be applied (A) first, to reduce the Allocated Loan Amount of the Individual Property being released to zero and (B) second, pro-rata to reduce the Allocated Loan Amount of the remaining Individual Properties;

(e) Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Release Date, a release of Lien (and related Loan Documents) for the portion of the Collateral related to the Individual Property for execution by Lender.

(f) After giving effect to such release, Lender shall have determined that the Debt Yield for the Properties then remaining subject to the Liens of the Mortgages shall be at least equal to the greater of (i) 10.15% and (ii) the Debt Yield for all of the then remaining Properties (including the Individual Property to be released) for the twelve (12) full calendar months immediately preceding the release of the Individual Property, provided that Borrower shall be permitted to make a prepayment of the Loan in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6 for the purpose of satisfying the Debt Yield requirement in this Section;

(g) Lender shall have received payment of all Lender’s reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including due diligence review costs and reasonable counsel fees and disbursements incurred in connection with the release of the portion of the Collateral related to the Individual Property from the lien of the related Pledge Agreement and the review and approval of the documents and information required to be delivered in connection therewith; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to pay any consent, processing, administrative or similar fee in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.9;

(h) Borrower shall have delivered evidence satisfactory to Lender that (i) Mortgage Borrower has complied with all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Mortgage Loan Agreement with respect to a release of the security interest corresponding to the release requested pursuant to this Section and (ii) Mortgage Lender has delivered (or is simultaneously delivering) such release to Mortgage Borrower (if applicable); and

Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.6(a) or this Section 2.9 to the contrary, on or prior to the expiration of the Spread Maintenance Date, no Spread Maintenance Premium shall be

payable under Section 2.6(a) with respect to a release of the portion of the Collateral related to an Individual Property pursuant to this Section 2.9 in the event and to the extent that the Allocated Loan Amount of such Individual Property to be released together with the Allocated Loan Amounts of all Individual Properties previously released and any other prepayments made pursuant to Sections 2.6(a) or 2.9 is less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the original principal balance of the Loan (the “Free Prepayment Amount”).

Section 5.13 Leasing Matters

(a) Borrower shall be permitted to cause Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee to enter into a proposed Lease (including the renewal or extension of an existing Lease (a “Renewal Lease”)) that is not a Major Lease without the prior written consent of Lender, provided such proposed Lease or Renewal Lease (i) provides for rental rates and terms comparable to existing local market rates and terms (taking into account the type and quality of the tenant) as of the date such Lease is executed by Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee (unless, in the case of a Renewal Lease, the rent payable during such renewal, or a formula or other method to compute such rent, is provided for in the original Lease), (ii) is an arm’s-length transaction with a bona fide, independent third party tenant, (iii) does not contain any terms which would reasonably be expected to have or do have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) is subject and subordinate to the Mortgages and the Tenant thereunder agrees to attorn to Mortgage Lender and any purchaser at a foreclosure sale and (v) does not contain any option, offer, right of first refusal, right of first offer or other similar right to acquire all or any portion of any Individual Property. Each Major Lease and all other proposed Leases which do not satisfy the requirements set forth in this subsection, unless Manager has the right to enter into such Lease without Mortgage Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s prior written consent pursuant to the Management Agreement (each a “Required Approval Lease”) shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to promptly deliver to Lender copies of all Leases which are entered into pursuant to this subsection together with Borrower’s certification that Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee has satisfied all of the conditions of this Section. Borrower shall pay the costs and expenses associated with Lender’s counsel review of any Lease for which Lender’s consent may be required under this Section 5.13.

(b) Except as provided in clause (c) below, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, or cause Operating Lessee to, if applicable, (i) observe and perform all the obligations imposed upon the landlord under the Leases in all material respects and shall not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of any of the Leases as security for the Debt; (ii) promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of material default which Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee shall send or receive under a Major Lease; (iii) enforce all of the material terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the tenant thereunder to be observed or performed; (iv) not collect any Rents more than one (1) month in advance (except security deposits shall not be deemed Rents collected in advance); (v) hold all security deposits in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease and Legal Requirements; (vi) not execute any assignment of the landlord’s interest in any of the Leases or the Rents except as contemplated by the Mortgage Loan Documents; and (vi) not consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Major Leases not in accordance with their terms, without the prior written consent of Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) Borrower shall be permitted to cause Mortgage Borrower and/or Operating Lessee to, without the prior written consent of Lender, amend, modify or waive the provisions of or terminate, reduce Rents or accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Lease which is not a Major Lease (including any guaranty, letter of credit or other credit support with respect thereto) provided that (i) such action (taking into account, in the case of a termination, reduction in rent, surrender of space or shortening of term, the planned alternative use of the affected space) is not reasonably expected to have and does not have a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) such amendment, modification, waiver, termination, rent reduction, space surrender or term shortening, is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Agreement and any subordination agreement binding upon Mortgage Lender with respect to such Lease. A termination of a Lease with a tenant who is in monetary default beyond applicable notice and grace periods shall not be considered an action which has a Material Adverse Effect. Any amendment, modification, waiver, termination, rent reduction, space surrender or term shortening which does not satisfy the requirements set forth in this subsection shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (each, a “Lease Modification”), at Borrower’s expense. Borrower shall, or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, promptly deliver to Lender copies of amendments, modifications and waivers which are entered into pursuant to this subsection together with Borrower’s certification that it and Mortgage Borrower have satisfied all of the conditions of this subsection.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not and shall not permit Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee to, without the prior written consent of Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, enter into, renew, extend, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, terminate, reduce Rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of any Major Lease; provided, however, Borrower and/or Operating Lessee may terminate a Major Lease with a tenant who is in default beyond applicable notice and grace periods without the prior written approval of Lender.

(e) Each request by Borrower for approval and consent by Lender pursuant to this Section 5.13 shall be in writing and contain a legend in capitalized bold letters on the top of the cover page stating: “LENDER’S RESPONSE IS REQUESTED WITHIN TEN (10)

BUSINESS DAYS. LENDER’S FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN SUCH TIME PERIOD SHALL RESULT IN LENDER’S CONSENT BEING DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN GRANTED” and Borrower shall include the following documentation with such request all materials reasonably necessary in order for Lender to evaluate such matter. In the event that Lender fails to grant or withhold its approval and consent to such matter within such ten (10) Business Day period (and, in the case of a withholding of consent, stating the grounds therefor in reasonable detail), then, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, Lender’s approval and consent shall be deemed to have been granted.

There shall be no administrative or approval fee in connection with this Section 5.14(d), but Borrower shall pay any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided no Event of Default is continuing, Borrower shall have the right to cause Mortgage Borrower to cause Operating Lessee, and the right to permit Manager, without the prior written approval of Lender (but upon prior written notice to Lender), to terminate a Management Agreement at an Individual Property; provided, however, it shall be an Event of Default hereunder in the event that within sixty (60) days of the termination of such Management Agreement (i) Borrower shall have failed (or shall have failed to cause Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee in the case of clause (2) hereof) to deliver to Lender either (1) a PIP Guaranty relating to any New PIP contemplated by the Replacement Management Agreement or (2) Cash to be deposited into the PIP Reserve Account in an amount equal to the PIP Required Deposit contemplated by the Replacement Management Agreement, which Cash shall be held and distributed in accordance with the terms of Section 9.9 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement and (ii) Borrower fails to deliver evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that a Replacement Management Agreement is in full force and effect at the applicable Individual Property; provided, however, (1) if the terminated Management Agreement was with a Brand Manager (for which no separate Franchise Agreement existed), and the Replacement Management Agreement is with a Qualified Manager that is not a Brand Manager or Borrower, shall deliver evidence to Lender that Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee has entered into a Replacement Franchise Agreement within such sixty (60) day period and (2) if a Franchise Agreement for the applicable Individual Property exists, and the Replacement Management Agreement is with a Brand Manager for which no separate Franchise Agreement is required by such Brand Manager or Borrower, shall deliver evidence to Lender that Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee has terminated the existing Franchise Agreement within such sixty (60) day period.

and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.24 or elsewhere in this Agreement, if, at any time, Lender converts the Loan from a LIBOR Rate Loan to either a Base Rate Loan or an Alternate Rate Loan in accordance with Section 2.4 above (each, a “LIBOR Conversion”), then within thirty (30) days after such LIBOR Conversion, Borrower shall either (A) enter into, make all payments under, and satisfy all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of, a Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement (and in connection therewith, but not prior to Borrower taking all the actions described in this clause (f), Borrower shall have the right to terminate any then-existing Interest Rate Protection Agreement) or (B) cause the then-existing Interest Rate Protection Agreement to be modified such that such then-existing Interest Rate Protection Agreement satisfies the requirements of a Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement as set forth below in the definition thereof (a “Converted Interest Rate Protection Agreement”).

(iii) it provides that the only material obligation of Borrower thereunder is the making of a single payment to the Acceptable Counterparty thereunder upon the execution and delivery thereof;

(iv) it provides to Lender and Borrower (as reasonably determined by Lender), for the term of the Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement, a hedge against rising interest rates that is no less beneficial to Borrower and Lender than that which was provided by the Interest Rate Protection Agreement being obtained by Borrower in connection with the origination of the Loan; and

(v) without limiting any of the provisions of the preceding clauses (i) through (iv) above, it satisfies all of the other requirements set forth in this Section 5.24.

From and after the date of any LIBOR Conversion, all references to “Interest Rate Protection Agreement” and “Replacement Interest Rate Protection Agreement” herein (other than in the definition of “Interest Rate Protection Agreement”, the definition of “Replacement Interest Rate Protection Agreement” and as referenced in the first sentence of Section 5.24(a) hereof) shall be deemed to refer or relate, as applicable, to a Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement or a Converted Interest Rate Protection Agreement, as the case may be.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5.24(f), Borrower shall not be required to obtain a Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Converted Interest Rate Protection Agreement, as applicable, during any period when the Loan is outstanding as a Base Rate Loan or Alternate Rate Loan if such a Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Converted Interest Rate Protection Agreement, as the case may be, is not then commercially available or would have a cost to Borrower that is not commercially reasonable, in which event Borrower and Lender shall work together to find a mutually agreeable alternative to a Substitute Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Converted Interest Rate Protection Agreement that would afford Lender substantially equivalent protection from increases in the applicable interest rate.

Section 5.25 Franchise Agreement

(a) Except as provided in this Agreement, the Properties shall at all times be operated in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Franchise Agreements.

Each request by Borrower for approval and consent by Lender pursuant to this Section 5.25 shall be in writing and contain a legend in capitalized bold letters on the top of the cover page stating: “LENDER’S RESPONSE IS REQUESTED WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS. LENDER’S FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN SUCH TIME PERIOD SHALL RESULT IN LENDER’S CONSENT BEING DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN GRANTED” and Borrower shall include the following documentation with such request all materials reasonably necessary in order for Lender to evaluate such matter. In the event that Lender fails to grant or withhold its approval and consent to such matter within such ten (10) Business Day period (and, in the case of a withholding of consent, stating the grounds therefor in reasonable detail), then, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, Lender’s approval and consent shall be deemed to have been granted. There shall be no administrative or approval fee in connection with this Section 5.25(a), but Borrower shall pay any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided no Event of Default is continuing, Mortgage Borrower and/or Operating Lessee shall have the right, and the right to permit

Franchisor, without the prior written approval of Lender (but upon prior written notice to Lender), to terminate a Franchise Agreement at an Individual Property; provided, however, it shall be an Event of Default hereunder in the event that within sixty (60) days of the termination of such Franchise Agreement (i) Borrower shall have failed (or shall have failed to cause Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee in the case of clause (2) hereof) to deliver to Lender either (1) a PIP Guaranty relating to any New PIP contemplated by the Replacement Franchise Agreement or the Replacement Management Agreement with a Brand Manager or (2) Cash to be deposited into the PIP Reserve Account in an amount equal to the PIP Required Deposit contemplated by the Replacement Franchise Agreement or the Replacement Management Agreement with a Brand Manager, which Cash shall be held and distributed in accordance with the terms of Section 9.9 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement and (ii) Borrower fails to deliver evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that a Replacement Franchise Agreement or a Replacement Management Agreement with a Brand Manager is in full force and effect at the applicable Individual Property (and such Replacement Franchise Agreement or Replacement Management Agreement, as the case may be, shall not violate or be prohibited by any applicable Ground Lease).

(c) WITH RESPECT TO THE SHERATON BUCKS COUNTY PROPERTY, THE APPLICABLE MORTGAGE BORROWER IS A PARTY TO A LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH THE SHERATON CORPORATON THAT ENABLES IT TO OPERATE A HOTEL USING THE SERVICE MARK “SHERATON®.” NEITHER THE SHERATON CORPORATION NOR ITS AFFILIATES OWN SUCH HOTEL OR ARE A PARTY TO THIS FINANCING AND HAVE NOT PROVIDED OR REVIEWED, AND ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR, ANY DISCLOSURES OR OTHER INFORMATION SET FORTH HEREIN.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgage Lender shall have the right to submit the letters of resignation in its possession and replace the Hotel Unit Board Members with Persons elected or appointed by Mortgage Lender.

(h) To the extent that any approval rights, consent rights or other rights or privileges granted to the holder of a mortgage on Mortgage Borrower’s Condominium Unit in the Condominium Documents are conditioned upon such approval rights, consent rights or other rights or privileges being required or contained in any mortgage, then such approval rights, consent rights or other rights or privileges shall be deemed to be required by this Agreement.

If the landlord under the Ground Lease shall deliver to Lender a copy of any written notice of default under the Ground Lease, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in reliance thereon. Borrower shall or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Ground Lease upon demand by Lender made at any time within one (1) year prior to the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, and subject to Mortgage Lender’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Agreement, Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower and/or Mortgage Borrower, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest.

Section 5.29 Operating Lease Provisions

Borrower shall and shall cause Mortgage Borrower to object to any such attempt, as debtor in possession or by a trustee for any such party, to sell or transfer such estate free and clear of the Operating Lease under Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, and in such event shall affirmatively assert and pursue its right to adequate protection under Section 363(e) of the Bankruptcy Code. Borrower hereby assigns to Lender all of its rights under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code to consent or object to any sale or transfer of any estate free and clear of the Operating Lease, and grants to Lender the right to object to any such sale or transfer on behalf of Borrower and/or Mortgage Borrower, and Borrower shall not, and shall not permit Mortgage Borrower to, contest any pleadings, motions documents or other actions filed or taken on Lender’s or Borrower’s behalf by Lender in the event that the landlord, as debtor in possession or by a trustee, attempts to sell or transfer the fee estate free and clear of the Operating Lease under Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

If the tenant or landlord under the Operating Lease shall deliver to Lender a copy of any written notice of default under the Operating Lease, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in reliance thereon.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, with respect to each Individual Property, an Operating Lease shall at all times be in full force and effect. Upon the expiration of the existing Operating Lease pursuant to its terms, provided no Event of Default

is continuing and upon prior written notice to Lender, Borrower shall have the right to cause Mortgage Borrower to (without the prior written approval of Lender) extend the term of the Operating Lease for a period of five (5) years provided that such extension contains the same material terms and conditions as are set forth in the existing Operating Lease, except for a modification of the rent which shall be “market rent” in accordance with REIT rule requirements (which “market rent” shall be determined by reference to a transfer pricing report that is prepared by an independent national accounting firm).

Borrower shall, or shall cause Mortgage Borrower to, use commercially reasonable efforts from time to time, to obtain from the Mortgage Lender such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Mortgage Borrower with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents as may be requested by Lender. In the event or to the extent that Mortgage Lender is not legally obligated to deliver such certificates of estoppel and is unwilling to deliver the same, or is legally obligated to deliver such certificates of estoppel but breaches such obligation, then Borrower shall not be in breach of this provision so long as Borrower furnishes to Lender an estoppel executed by Borrower and Mortgage Borrower and expressly representing to Lender the information reasonably requested by Lender regarding compliance by Mortgage Borrower with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents. Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender from and against all out-of-pocket liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, assessments, actions, or causes of action, judgments, suits, claims, demands, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and other professional fees, whether or not suit is brought and settlement costs) and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Lender based in whole or in part upon any fact, event, condition, or circumstances relating to the Mortgage Loan which was materially misrepresented in, or which due to its material nature warrants disclosure and was omitted from such estoppel executed by Borrower and Mortgage Borrower.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender expressly agrees that Borrower shall be permitted to distribute to its members or shareholders, as applicable, any Distributions Borrower receives only upon the express condition that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan.

(b) If any Distributions shall be received by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower while an Event of Default exists, Borrower shall hold, or shall cause the same to be held, in trust for the benefit of Lender. Any and all revenue derived from the Property paid directly by tenants, subtenants or occupants of the Property shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

Section 5.40 Refinancing or Prepayment of the Mortgage Loan

Neither Borrower nor Mortgage Borrower shall be required to obtain the consent of Lender to refinance the Mortgage Loan, provided that the Loan shall have been (or shall simultaneously be) paid in full in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to obtain the prior written consent of Lender to enter into any other refinancing of the Mortgage Loan.

Section 5.41 Acquisition of the Mortgage Loan

If, solely by operation of applicable subrogation law, Borrower shall have failed to comply with the foregoing, then Borrower: (i) shall immediately notify Lender of such failure; (ii) shall cause any and all such prohibited parties acquiring any interest in the Mortgage Loan Documents: (A) not to enforce the Mortgage Loan Documents; and (B) upon the request of Lender, to the extent any of such prohibited parties has or have the power or authority to do so, to promptly: (1) cancel the promissory note evidencing the Mortgage Loan, (2) reconvey and release the Lien securing the Mortgage Loan and any other collateral under the Mortgage Loan Documents, and (3) discontinue and terminate any enforcement proceeding(s) under the Mortgage Loan Documents.

(b) Lender shall have the right at any time to acquire all or any portion of the Mortgage Loan or any interest in any holder of, or participant in, the Mortgage Loan without notice or consent of Borrower or any other Loan Party, in which event Lender shall have and may exercise all rights of Mortgage Lender thereunder (to the extent of its interest), including the right (i) to declare that the Mortgage Loan is in default and (ii) to accelerate the Mortgage Loan indebtedness, in accordance with the terms thereof and (iii) to pursue all remedies against any obligor under the Mortgage Loan Documents.

Section 5.42 Material Agreements

(a) Borrower shall not, and shall not permit Mortgage Borrower to, enter into any Material Agreement without the consent of Lender, provided, however, Lender’s consent shall not be required in connection with any Material Agreement contemplated by the Annual Budget approved by Mortgage Lender (unless Mortgage Borrower, and thus Mortgage Lender, have no approval rights in the Annual Budget under the applicable Management Agreement) in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Agreement or any contract or agreement entered into by Borrower and/or Mortgage Borrower with a bona-fide third party, in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past business practices, provided the same does not have a Material Adverse Effect. Lender may condition its consent upon Mortgage Borrower also obtaining the consent of Mortgage Lender, if applicable. Upon the request of Lender with respect to Material Agreements, Borrower shall, or shall cause the applicable Loan Party to, deliver to Lender a recognition agreement from such service or material provider, among other things, providing for such Person’s continued performance should Lender become the owner of the Collateral. Each such Material Agreement and each recognition agreement relating thereto, shall be in form and substance acceptable to Lender in all respects, including the amount of the costs and fees thereunder. Each request by Borrower for approval and consent by Lender pursuant to this Section 5.42 shall be in writing and contain a legend in capitalized bold letters on the top of the cover page stating: “LENDER’S RESPONSE IS REQUESTED WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS. LENDER’S FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN SUCH TIME PERIOD SHALL RESULT IN LENDER’S CONSENT BEING DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN GRANTED” and Borrower shall include the following documentation with such request all materials reasonably necessary in order for Lender to evaluate such matter. In the event that Lender fails to grant or withhold its approval and consent to such matter within such ten (10) Business Day period (and, in the case of a withholding of consent, stating the grounds therefor in reasonable detail), then, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, Lender’s approval and consent shall be deemed to have been granted.

(b) Except as specifically set forth herein, Borrower will not, and will not permit or cause Mortgage Borrower to, amend, modify, supplement, rescind or terminate any Material Agreement that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Properties or any Individual Property, without Lender’s approval. If a material or service provider under a Material Agreement is in default in its obligations thereunder to the extent entitling the applicable Loan Party to rescind or terminate that agreement, then Borrower may, or if Lender so requires (but not otherwise), Borrower will, or will cause the applicable Loan Party to, promptly use all reasonable efforts to terminate that agreement.

(c) Borrower shall and shall cause Mortgage Borrower or Operating Lessee to, as applicable, observe and perform each and every term to be observed or performed by such Loan Party under the Material Agreements the non-performance of which would cause a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Collateral, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate after ten (10) days’ written notice to Borrower if prior to the date upon which any such coverage will lapse or at any time Lender deems necessary (regardless of prior notice to Borrower) to avoid the lapse of any such coverage. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Pledge Agreements and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, Lender shall have the same approval rights over the insurance referred to above (including, without limitation, the insurers, deductibles and coverages thereunder, as well as the right to require other reasonable insurance) as are provided in favor of the Mortgage Lender in the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, all Insurance Proceeds and Awards will be made available to Mortgage Borrower in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the above, Lender is not obligated to draw upon any Letter of Credit upon the happening of an event specified in (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) above and shall not be liable for any losses sustained by Borrower due to the insolvency of the issuing bank if Lender has not drawn upon the Letter of Credit.

(c) In the event Borrower delivers to Lender a Letter of Credit pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.3 after the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a New Non-Consolidation Opinion or a “no effect letter” with respect to the Non-Consolidation Opinion delivered to Lender on the Closing Date, the applicant under such Letter of Credit shall be a direct or indirect parent of the Borrower and the right to draw any funds on such Letter of Credit shall be a direct or indirect capital contribution to the Borrower by such parent and shall be accompanied by the execution and delivery of a contribution agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Lender.

Section 11.2 Remedies

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 11.1(g) above with respect to Borrower and SPE Component Entity only) and at any time thereafter Lender may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in the Collateral, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Collateral, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity. Upon any Event of Default described in Section 11.1(g) above (with respect to Borrower and SPE Component Entity only), the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to the Collateral. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender has determined in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents.

(c) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any amounts recovered from the Collateral may be applied to the repayment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole and absolute discretion.

Section 11.3 Right to Cure Defaults

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make any payment or do any act required of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property for such purposes, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 11.3, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after written notice from Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender together with interest

116

thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.

Section 11.4 Remedies Cumulative

The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one or more Defaults or Events of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

Section 11.5 Power of Attorney

For the purpose of carrying out the provisions and exercising the rights, powers and privileges granted in this Section 11, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and do and perform any acts such as are referred to in this subsection in the name and on behalf of Borrower. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked.

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Guarantor may otherwise have. Moreover, the indemnification provided for in clauses (C) and (D) above shall be effective whether or not an indemnification certificate described in clauses (A) and (B) above is provided and shall be applicable based on information previously provided by Borrower, Mortgage Borrower and Guarantor or their Affiliates if Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or Guarantor do not provide the indemnification certificate.

(c) In connection with filings under the Exchange Act or any information provided to holders of Securities on an ongoing basis, Borrower agrees to indemnify (i) Lender, the Issuer Group and the Underwriter Group for Losses to which Lender, the Issuer Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Securities Liabilities arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement in the Provided Information or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Provided Information a material fact required to be stated in the Provided Information in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Issuer Group or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender,

122

the Issuer Group or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Securities Liabilities.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 13.5 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 13.5, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 13.5 the indemnifying party shall be responsible for any reasonable legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one such separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party.

(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in Section 13.5(c) or Section 13.5(d) is or are for any reason held to be unenforceable by an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 13.5(c) or Section 13.5(d), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the indemnified party’s, Borrower’s and Guarantor’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.

123

(f) Borrower shall, and shall cause Guarantor to, indemnify Lender and its officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates against any Losses to which Lender and each of its officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates, may become subject in connection with any indemnification to the Rating Agencies in connection with issuing, monitoring or maintaining the Securities insofar as the Losses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of any material fact in any information provided by or on behalf of Borrower to the Rating Agencies (the “Covered Rating Agency Information”) or arise out of or are based upon the omission to state a material fact in the Covered Rating Agency Information required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Rating Agency Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(g) The liabilities and obligations of Borrower and Lender under this Section 13.5 shall survive the satisfaction of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

(a) If, at the time one or more Disclosure Documents are being prepared for a Securitization, Lender expects that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more affiliates of Borrower collectively, or the Properties alone or the Properties and any other parcel(s) of real property, together with improvements thereon and personal property related thereto, that is “related”, within the meaning of the definition of Significant Obligor (as defined in Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB), to the Properties (a “Related Property”) collectively, will be a Significant Obligor, Borrower shall furnish to Lender upon request (i) the selected financial data or, if applicable, net operating income, required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB and meeting the requirements thereof, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan, together with any loans made to an affiliate of Borrower or secured by a Related Property that is included in a Securitization with the Loan (a “Related Loan”), as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization or (ii) the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB and meeting the requirements thereof, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization. Such financial data or financial statements shall be furnished to Lender (A) within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Lender in connection with the preparation of Disclosure Documents for the Securitization, (B) not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Borrower and (C) not later than seventy-five (75) days after the end of each fiscal year of Borrower; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to furnish financial data or financial statements pursuant to clauses (B) or (C) of this sentence

124

with respect to any period for which a filing pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with or relating to the Securitization (an “Exchange Act Filing”) is not required.

No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or of the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given.

In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

Section 18.4 Trial by Jury

BORROWER AND LENDER EACH HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.

The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Lender agrees that, in such event, it shall cooperate in expediting any action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Section 18.7 Waiver of Marshalling of Assets

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Collateral, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of a foreclosure or assignment-in-lieu of foreclosure of all or any of the Pledge Agreements, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Collateral for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Collateral in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

E. Lender requires that Guarantor execute this Agreement to guarantee the performance and completion of the PIP Work.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees for the benefit of Lender, as follows:

1. Completion Guaranty.

(a) Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Lender the full performance and completion of the PIP Work on or before the Outside Date (as defined in the Loan Agreement), including, without limitation, that the PIP Work be constructed, performed and completed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Property Improvement Plan, [Franchise Agreement] [Management Agreement], the Loan Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, free and clear from all defects and liens and in compliance with all applicable laws (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

(b) If any of the obligations of Borrower or the Borrower Parties with respect to the performance and completion of the PIP Work are not complied with, in any respect whatsoever, and without the necessity of any notice from Lender to Guarantor, Guarantor agrees to (i) assume all responsibility for the performance and completion of the PIP Work and, at Guarantor’s own cost and expense, cause the PIP Work to be fully performed and completed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Property Improvement Plan, [Franchise Agreement] [Management Agreement], the Loan Agreement, the Security Instrument, the other Loan Documents, and this Agreement, and in compliance with all applicable laws; (ii) pay all bills incurred by Borrower or any Borrower Party in connection with the performance and completion of the PIP Work, including without limitation, all permitting fees, licensing fees, amounts payable under any general construction contract and all subcontracts, and amounts payable to all architects, engineers and other consultants engaged in connection with the construction, performance and completion of the PIP Work; (iii) cure any default or Event of Default under [Franchise Agreement] [Management Agreement], the Loan Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents relating to the PIP Work including, without limitation, causing any liens, claims or encumbrances relating to the PIP Work to be removed and thereafter keeping the Property free and clear from all liens and encumbrances that may be filed or asserted against the Property for furnishing materials and/or performing work or labor thereon relating to the PIP Work; and (iv) indemnify and hold Lender harmless from any and all loss, cost, liability or expense that Lender may suffer by any reason of any such non-compliance relating to the PIP Work; and (v) fully furnish the Property with all furniture, fixtures and equipment necessary for the

(c) Guarantor’s liability hereunder is direct and unconditional and may be enforced without requiring Lender first to resort to any other right, remedy or security. This Agreement is, and shall be as to Guarantor continuing, and shall not terminate unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fulfilled or the Loan shall have been paid in full or otherwise discharged, whichever shall first occur.

2. Indemnity. Guarantor agrees to indemnify and hold Lender harmless from any and all loss, cost, liability or expense in any way suffered, incurred or paid by Lender as a result of, or in any way arising from, either Borrower Party’s failure to perform and complete the PIP Work or Borrower’s failure to cause either Borrower Parties to perform and complete the PIP Work, including all costs and expenses of collection (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender to enforce this Agreement.

3. Reinstatement of Obligations.

4. Waivers by Guarantor. To the extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of:

Any amendments or modifications hereto, in order to be effective, shall be in writing and executed by the parties hereto. A determination that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision, and any determination that the application of any provision of this Agreement to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to any other persons or circumstances.
