From and after the Effective Date, Seller shall hold the Deposit OP Units as an earnest money deposit under (and as collateral for the performance of Buyer's obligations under) this Agreement.

(c) PURCHASE MONEY LOAN. On the Closing Date, if Buyer (or its Affiliate acquiring title to the Parcel(s), as the case may be) elects to obtain financing through a purchase money loan, not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 (the "PURCHASE MONEY LOAN"), Buyer (or its Affiliate acquiring title to the Parcel(s), as the case may be) shall execute, acknowledge (where applicable) and deliver to Escrow Agent (i) a promissory note substantially in the form of EXHIBIT J attached hereto (the "PURCHASE MONEY NOTE"), which Purchase Money Note (A) shall be in an original principal amount equal to the Purchase Money Note Principal Amount, (B) shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum with monthly payments, in arrears, of accrued interest due and payable thereunder until the maturity of the Purchase Money Note, (C) shall be prepayable concurrently with the prepayment of any senior loan secured by the Core Parcels (or any of them) and each Purchase Money Deed of Trust (defined below) shall contain appropriate provisions accelerating the Purchase Money Loan upon the prepayment of any such senior loan(s), and (D) shall mature on the day after the maturity date for the senior loan secured by the Core Parcels, (ii) a mortgage, assignment of rents and security agreement or deed of trust, assignment of rents and security agreement, as the case may be, substantially in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT K (the "PURCHASE MONEY DEED OF TRUST") for each Parcel transferred to Buyer or its Affiliate hereunder whereby a security interest in and to the Parcel is created in favor of Seller to secure the Purchase Money Loan (PROVIDED THAT, each such Purchase Money Deed of Trust shall be modified as reasonably necessary in order to address local law issues and concerns of the jurisdiction where the Parcel that is the collateral thereunder is located), (iii) a hazardous substances remediation and indemnification agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT L (the "ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNITY"), (iv) such UCC financing statements as Seller may reasonably require in order to evidence and perfect Seller's security interest in any personal property located on or used in connection with any Parcel transferred to Buyer or its Affiliate hereunder, (v) copies of "borrower's" governance documents and such other documentation as Seller may reasonably require to evidence the due formation or organization of "borrower" and the due authorization by "borrower" of the Purchase Money Loan and the execution and delivery of all loan documents described herein, and (vii) such other loan instruments and documents as the Seller may reasonably require in order to evidence and/or secure the Purchase Money Loan in the principal amount of the Purchase Money Note Principal Amount. In addition to the foregoing, Buyer shall cause the following documents and instruments to be executed and delivered to Escrow Agent on or prior to the Closing Date: (i) a Guaranty substantially in the form of EXHIBIT M attached hereto, executed by Larry D. Young, whereby Larry D. Young guaranties the full and prompt payment and performance of the Purchase Money Loan and all representations, warranties and obligations of the "borrower" under the afore-described loan documents, (ii) a due formation and due authorization opinion, in a 11 form reasonably acceptable to Seller, pertaining to Buyer (and/or its Affiliate acquiring title to the Parcel(s)) issued by legal counsel for Buyer, and (iii) an enforceability opinion, in a form reasonably acceptable to Seller, confirming the enforceability of the Purchase Money Note, Purchase Money Deeds of Trust (and each of them), Environmental Indemnity(ies), the guaranty described hereinabove, and all other loan documents executed and delivered in connection with the Purchase Money Loan, issued by legal counsel for Buyer. The Purchase Money Deed of Trust for a Parcel shall be recorded against such Parcel in the Official Records of the County where such Parcel is located in a second lien position (except that, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, such Purchase Money Deed of Trust may be recorded in a third lien position after a Subordinate Third-Party Loan), after and/or subordinate to a first lien deed of trust/mortgage securing the loan made to Buyer (or its Affiliate acquiring title to the Parcel(s), as the case may be) by Buyer's Lender in connection with its acquisition of the Property, and/or, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, a second lien deed of trust/mortgage securing a Subordinate Third-Party Loan made to Buyer (or its Affiliate acquiring title to the Non-Core Parcel(s), as the case may be) by the Subordinate Third-Party Lender; PROVIDED THAT, in no event shall such first deed of trust/mortgage loan made by Buyer's Lender be in an aggregate principal amount that exceeds seventy-five percent (75%) of the total Purchase Price paid by Buyer at Closing. As a condition to Closing, Seller shall have obtained the Title Company's unconditional and irrevocable commitment to issue, with respect to each Parcel that is transferred to Buyer or its Affiliate, an ALTA extended coverage loan title insurance policy, in such form and with such endorsements as may be reasonably required by Seller, insuring Seller's second lien position in and to such Parcel (or, with respect to any Non-Core Parcel that secures any Subordinate Third-Party Loan (if any), Seller's third lien position in and to such Non-Core Parcel), subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and the first lien mortgage/deed of trust and/or, with respect to any Non-Core Parcel only, second lien mortgage/deed of trust, as the case may be, described hereinabove. All premiums and costs incurred and/or charged in connection with the procurement of each such ALTA extended coverage loan title insurance policy described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be paid and satisfied by Buyer (at its sole cost and expense). The UCC financing statements shall be filed with the appropriate office(s) in the State where each Parcel is located, as necessary to perfect Seller's security interest in all personal property located on or used in connection with any Parcel transferred to Buyer or its Affiliate hereunder. The parties acknowledge and agree that, if Buyer elects to purchase the different Parcels through different entities such that there are multiple "borrowers" under the Purchase Money Loan, then each such borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for the obligations of the "borrower" under each of the loan documents described hereinabove, each Parcel will be cross-collateralized and will secure the entire Purchase Money Loan, and Seller may require (and Buyer shall provide or cause to be provided) such additional documentation as the Seller may deem necessary or desirable to protect the Seller against various bankruptcy or other risks created as a result of the multiple borrower structure (including, without 12 limitation, a contribution and reimbursement agreement executed by the "borrowers", a fraudulent conveyance indemnity agreement executed by Larry D. Young, and a fraudulent conveyance opinion (in a form acceptable to Seller in its reasonable discretion) from Buyer's legal counsel). The legal counsel providing any of the legal opinions required herein shall be subject to the prior written approval of Seller, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated hereinabove, Seller hereby agrees to make such necessary revisions to the loan documents described hereinabove (the forms of which are attached hereto as Exhibits) and/or to enter into an intercreditor agreement or agreements (in a form or forms acceptable to Seller, in its reasonable discretion) with Buyer's Lender and/or, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, any Subordinate Third-Party Lender, which intercreditor agreement(s) will include the following rights in favor of Buyer's Lender or, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, Subordinate Third-Party Lender, and obligations on the part of Seller, as the lender under the Purchase Money Loan: (1) a provision fully subordinating the lien created by the Purchase Money Loan, and the payment obligations of the "borrower" under the Purchase Money Loan, to the lien of the Buyer's Lender's loan (and/or, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, the lien of the Subordinate Third-Party Loan) and the payment obligations of the "borrower" to the Buyer's Lender and/or, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, the Subordinate Third-Party Lender (including, without limitation, a subordination of Seller's rights to insurance and condemnation proceeds and the right of Seller to be paid in full on the Purchase Money Loan prior to the Buyer's Lender and/or, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, the Subordinate Third-Party Lender, whether in connection with the bankruptcy or insolvency of the "borrower" or otherwise), (2) a provision requiring Buyer's Lender's (and/or, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, the Subordinate Third-Party Lender's) consent to any advances to be made by Seller under the Purchase Money Loan for taxes, insurance or other such matters, (3) a provision whereby Seller, as lender of the Purchase Money Loan, waives any right to have a receiver appointed without Buyer's Lender's (and/or, with respect to the Non-Core Parcels only, the Subordinate Third-Party Lender's) consent, (4) a provision allowing post-petition financing to be provided by Buyer's Lender in the event of a bankruptcy of the "borrower", and (5) provisions providing for a waiver of jury trial, consent to South Carolina jurisdiction, and arbitration. (d) BALANCE. The balance of the Purchase Price (after crediting against the Purchase Price, (i) the amount credited pursuant to SUBSECTION (b) above in connection with the transfer of the Legends OP Units, and (ii) the Purchase Money Note Principal Amount, if any) shall be paid to Seller by Buyer on the Closing Date, in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, net of all prorations and other adjustments provided in this Agreement, as set forth in the Closing Statement delivered at Closing. (e) CANCELLATION OF NOTES. In addition to the transfer of the Property to Buyer or its Affiliate(s) and the payment of the Purchase Price as provided hereunder, at the Closing all Notes and all obligations thereunder or related thereto (except the 13 obligation to pay interest accrued and unpaid thereunder as of the Closing Date) shall be cancelled and released (and all collateral, if any, securing such Notes shall be released). 2.2 NON-CORE PARCELS DUE DILIGENCE. (a) As used in this Agreement, the term "NON-CORE PARCELS DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD" shall mean the period from the Effective Date until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the twentieth (20th) calendar day after the Effective Date. During the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period, Buyer, Buyer's Lender, any Subordinate Third-Party Lender and their respective agents, contractors and representatives shall be entitled to enter onto each Non-Core Parcel to perform inspections and tests of such Non-Core Parcel and the structural and mechanical systems within any Golf Course Improvements located on such Non-Core Parcel; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) such inspections or tests shall not disrupt or disturb the on-going operation of the Non-Core Parcel or the rights of any tenants or users thereof, and (ii) Buyer, Buyer's Lender, any Subordinate Third-Party Lender or their respective agents, contractors or representatives shall drill or bore on or through the surface of the Non-Core Parcel only with Seller's prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. After making such tests and inspections, Buyer agrees to promptly restore the Non-Core Parcel to its condition prior to such tests and inspections (which obligation shall survive any termination of this Agreement). Buyer agrees to promptly deliver to Seller copies of all reports, studies and results of tests and investigations obtained or conducted by Buyer or Buyer's Lender, any Subordinate Third-Party Lender, and/or their respective agents, contractors and/or other representatives with respect to any Non-Core Parcel. Although Buyer, Buyer's Lender, any Subordinate Third-Party Lender and/or their respective agents, contractors or other representatives shall be permitted to perform due diligence investigations and/or inspections of the Core Parcels during the term of this Agreement, in no event shall Buyer be permitted to terminate this Agreement or its obligation to purchase any of the Core Parcels pursuant to this SECTION 2.2 (except as otherwise expressly provided in SECTION 2.2(e)), it being acknowledged and agreed by Buyer that Buyer has accepted the physical condition of each and every Core Parcel prior to the Effective Date and, except for the failure of a Buyer's Closing Condition, a material Seller default hereunder or as otherwise expressly provided in SECTIONS 2.2(e), 4.12 (with respect to the Oyster Bay Parcel only), 7.1 and 7.2, Buyer shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement or its obligation to purchase any of the Core Parcels.

This indemnity shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement. (c) During the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period, Seller shall make available to Buyer, Buyer's Lender, any Subordinate Third-Party Lender, and their respective agents, contractors and other representatives, at a place designated by Seller, the documents listed and described on SCHEDULE 2.2(c) attached hereto pertaining to the Non-Core Parcels and such other documents pertaining to such Non-Core Parcels as the Buyer shall reasonably request (PROVIDED THAT, such other documents are in Seller's possession). Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing documents shall be made available by Seller solely to accommodate and facilitate Buyer's (and Buyer's lenders') investigations relating to any such Non-Core Parcel, and that Seller makes no representations or warranties of any kind regarding the accuracy or thoroughness of the information contained in the materials delivered to Buyer hereunder. (d) During the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period, Buyer may obtain, if Buyer so desires in its sole and absolute discretion, title reports or commitments for each and/or any Non-Core Parcel (each a "TITLE REPORT"), together with the underlying documents referenced therein, and a survey for any such Non-Core Parcel (each a "SURVEY"); PROVIDED THAT, (i) such Title Reports and Surveys shall be obtained at Buyer's sole risk, cost and expense with no obligation on the part of Seller (except to the extent provided in SUBSECTION (c) immediately above with respect to the items listed on SCHEDULE 2.2(c)) to provide or participate in the procurement of any such Title Reports or Surveys, and (ii) in no event shall the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period be extended in order to accommodate or provide for the procurement of such Title Reports and/or Surveys (it being acknowledged and agreed that any exceptions to title to, or Survey matters relating to, any Non-Core Parcel that may exist prior to the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period, even if Buyer has not received or had the opportunity to review any Title Reports, underlying documents or Surveys for such Non-Core Parcel prior to the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period, shall be Permitted Title Exceptions hereunder unless objected to by Buyer prior to the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period as provided below). Buyer shall have until the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period to object to any matters affecting title to, or any Survey matters affecting, such Non-Core Parcel, which objections shall be made, if at all, by delivery of written notice thereof to Seller no later than the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period. Any exception to title to, or Survey matter affecting, any Non-Core Parcel existing as of the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period and not so objected to in writing by Buyer, any title exception or Survey matter that is objected to by Buyer prior to the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period but is cured or insured over (if insurable) by Seller pursuant to the terms and provisions hereinbelow, and any Later Exception that is either not objected to by Buyer in accordance with 15 SUBSECTION (e) below or is objected to by Buyer but then cured or insured over (if insurable) by Seller, shall either not be an exception (if the same is either cured by the removal of the same of record or entirely insured over) or shall be a "PERMITTED TITLE EXCEPTION" hereunder, as applicable. If Buyer objects to any title exception to, or Survey matter affecting, any Non-Core Parcel prior to the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period as provided herein, then Seller shall have seven (7) business days after its receipt of such objection notice to notify Buyer, in writing, whether or not Seller will cure or cause such exception or Survey matter to be insured over (if insurable) on or before the Closing. If Seller notifies Buyer that it will either cure or insure over (if insurable) any such title exception or Survey matter, then so long as Seller accomplishes such cure or insures over such title exception or Survey matter on or prior to the Closing, such title exception or Survey matter, as the case may be, shall either not be an exception (if the same is either cured by the removal of the same of record or entirely insured over) or be a Permitted Title Exception hereunder, as applicable. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing within the said seven (7) business day period that Seller is not willing to cure or insure over any such title exception or Survey matter objected to by Buyer, or Seller fails to respond to Buyer within the said seven (7) business day period, then Buyer shall have three (3) business days after its receipt of such notice from Seller or the expiration of such seven (7) business day period, as the case may be, to terminate Buyer's obligation to purchase such defective Non-Core Parcel only, by the delivery of a written termination notice to Seller (in which event Buyer's right and obligation to purchase such defective Non-Core Parcel shall be terminated and Seller may thereafter sell such Non-Core Parcel to any third-party without any obligation to Buyer under this Agreement [including, without limitation, any obligation to pay a break-up fee pursuant to ARTICLE 8 hereof], except as otherwise expressly provided herein, and the transactions contemplated herein with respect to all other Parcels that do not become Terminated Parcels hereunder shall proceed in accordance with the other terms and provisions of this Agreement). If Buyer fails to exercise, within the period of time allotted hereunder, any of its termination rights set forth in this SECTION 2.2(d) with respect to any title exception or Survey matter that Buyer has objected to and that Seller has not agreed to cure or insure over in accordance with this SECTION 2.2(d), then such title exception or Survey matter, as the case may be, shall be a Permitted Title Exception for all purposes hereunder. All exceptions to title to, or Survey matters affecting, any Core Parcel existing as of the Effective Date are Permitted Title Exceptions hereunder, it being acknowledged and agreed by Buyer that all necessary title and Survey review with respect to the Core Parcels has been completed prior to the Effective Date and that Buyer has accepted all title exceptions and Survey matters affecting the Core Parcels and existing as of the Effective Date. (e) If at any time prior to the Closing, Buyer discovers any matter affecting title to, or any Survey matter affecting, any Core Parcel that did not exist of record as of the Effective Date or any Non-Core Parcel that did not exist of record prior to the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period (any such matter being referred to herein as a "LATER EXCEPTION"), and such Later Exception was not 16 caused or contributed to, directly or indirectly, by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, then Buyer shall have five (5) business days after it first discovers or learns of any such Later Exception to object to such Later Exception by the delivery of written notice of such objection to Seller. If Buyer so objects to any such Later Exception on or prior to the expiration of said five (5) business day period, then Seller shall have seven (7) business days after its receipt of such objection notice to notify Buyer, in writing, whether or not Seller will cure or cause such Later Exception to be insured over (if insurable) on or before the Closing. If Seller notifies Buyer that it will either cure or insure over (if insurable) any such Later Exception, then so long as Seller accomplishes such cure or insures over (if insurable) such Later Exception on or prior to the Closing, such Later Exception shall either not be an exception (if the same is either cured by the removal of the same of record or entirely insured over) or be a Permitted Title Exception hereunder, as applicable. Any Later Exception not so objected to by Buyer within the said five (5) business day period shall be a Permitted Title Exception hereunder. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing within the said seven (7) business day period that Seller is not willing to cure or insure over (if insurable) any such Later Exception objected to by Buyer, or Seller fails to respond to Buyer within the said seven (7) business day period, then (i) if such Later Exception pertains to a Core Parcel, Buyer shall have three (3) business days after its receipt of such notice from Seller or the expiration of such seven (7) business day period, as the case may be, to terminate this entire Agreement by the delivery of a written termination notice to Seller (in which event Buyer's right and obligation to purchase the Parcels, or any of them, shall be terminated and Seller may thereafter sell any such Parcel(s) to any third-party without any obligation to Buyer under this Agreement [including, without limitation, any obligation to pay a break-up fee pursuant to ARTICLE 8 hereof], except as otherwise expressly provided herein), or (ii) if such Later Exception pertains to a Non-Core Parcel, Buyer shall have three (3) business days after its receipt of such notice from Seller or the expiration of such seven (7) business day period, as the case may be, to terminate Buyer's obligation to purchase such defective Parcel only, by the delivery of a written termination notice to Seller (in which event Buyer's right and obligation to purchase such defective Parcel shall be terminated and Seller may thereafter sell such Parcel to any third-party without any obligation to Buyer under this Agreement [including, without limitation, any obligation to pay a break-up fee pursuant to ARTICLE 8 hereof], except as otherwise expressly provided herein, and the transactions contemplated herein with respect to all other Parcels that do not become Terminated Parcels hereunder shall proceed in accordance with the other terms and provisions of this Agreement). If Buyer fails to exercise, within the period of time allotted hereunder, any of its termination rights set forth in this SECTION 2.2(e) with respect to any Later Exception that Buyer has objected to and that Seller has not agreed to cure or insure over in accordance with this SECTION 2.2(e), then such Later Exception shall be a Permitted Title Exception for all purposes hereunder. (f) Buyer may at any time during the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period terminate this Agreement with respect to any such Non-Core Parcel only, in the event that Buyer discovers, in its reasonable discretion, any material defect or 17 defects in or to the condition of such Non-Core Parcel (which defect(s) may include, without limitation, any adverse environmental condition). If Buyer terminates Buyer's right and obligation to purchase one or more of the Non-Core Parcels during the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period, then (i) the Deposit OP Units shall in any event continue to serve as a deposit and as collateral and security for Buyer's obligations hereunder (including, without limitation, the obligation to purchase all Core Parcels and all Non-Core Parcels that are not Terminated Parcels), and (ii) Buyer's right and obligation to purchase the Terminated Parcel(s) hereunder shall be terminated and Seller may thereafter sell any such Terminated Parcel(s) to any third-party without any obligation to Buyer under this Agreement [including, without limitation, any obligation to pay a break-up fee pursuant to ARTICLE 8 hereof], except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Buyer's failure to terminate Buyer's right and obligation to purchase any Non-Core Parcel hereunder prior to the expiration of the Non-Core Parcels Due Diligence Period in accordance with the provisions of this SECTION 2.2 shall be deemed approval of such Non-Core Parcel and the matters covered by Buyer's investigations and inspections of the Non-Core Parcel, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. For purposes of this SUBSECTION (f), the term "material" shall mean any defect or matter that has not been caused or contributed to by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (whether in connection with their tenancy and/or operation of the Non-Core Parcel or otherwise) and has a cost of correction in excess of $50,000 or reduces the value of the Non-Core Parcel by more than $50,000. In addition to the foregoing, a Non-Core Parcel may be deemed to have a material defect if any MAI Appraisal prepared by an independent third party real estate appraiser (who is certified in the State where the particular Non-Core Parcel is located and has an MAI designation) retained by Buyer's Lender (and not by Buyer or any of its Affiliates) concludes and opines that the value of such Non-Core Parcel is less than ninety percent (90%) of the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Non-Core Parcel pursuant to the Summary Sheet. Except as otherwise expressly provided in SUBSECTION (e) above, in no event shall Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this SECTION 2.2 or to terminate Buyer's obligation to purchase any of the Core Parcels pursuant to this SECTION 2.2, it being acknowledged and agreed by Buyer that all necessary due diligence by Buyer with respect to the Core Parcels has been completed prior to the Effective Date and that Buyer has accepted the physical condition and title and Survey condition of each and every Core Parcel prior to the Effective Date. (g) In the event that Buyer's right and obligation to purchase any Non-Core Parcel is terminated pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, then such terminated Non-Core Parcel shall be referred to herein as a "TERMINATED PARCEL". 2.3 STANDSTILL AGREEMENT. Concurrently on the Effective Date, Buyer and its respective Affiliates (where indicated) shall execute and deliver to Seller the Standstill Agreement. 18 ARTICLE 3 SELLER'S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS To induce Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Property on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and to pay the Purchase Price therefor, Seller hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants, upon each of which Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer is entitled to rely and has relied: 3.1 ORGANIZATION AND POWER.

Seller shall use its good faith efforts to cause such third-party purchaser to reimburse the Buyer for the actual cost of all such appraisals, environmental reports, Title Reports and Surveys that are so delivered and assigned to Seller, such third-party purchaser and/or their designees at the time of assignment of the same. To the extent that such third-party purchaser does not so reimburse the Buyer for the actual cost of such appraisals, environmental reports, Title Reports and/or Surveys after Seller has used its good faith efforts to cause such third-party to so reimburse Buyer, then promptly following the 35 assignment of such appraisals, environmental reports, Title Reports and/or Surveys as provided above, Seller shall reimburse Buyer for (and shall pay to Buyer) the actual cost of all such appraisals, environmental reports, Title Reports and Surveys (to the extent the same have not been reimbursed by such third-party purchaser); PROVIDED THAT, in no event shall the aggregate payments made by Seller to Buyer hereunder with respect to the Non-Core Parcel and/or Virginia Parcel appraisals, environmental reports, Title Reports and/or Surveys exceed Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000) in total for all Non-Core Parcels and Virginia Parcels.

Seller and the Company further acknowledge and agree that any conversion of Legends OP Units into common stock of the Company shall be without prejudice to Legends' (or its Affiliates', as applicable) right to receive distributions and/or dividends, as and if declared, to the same extent such right is possessed by the other holders of such securities. ARTICLE 7 GENERAL PROVISIONS 7.1 CONDEMNATION. In the event of any actual or threatened taking, pursuant to the power of eminent domain, of all or any portion of a Parcel or any proposed sale in lieu thereof (in each case, a "TAKING"), Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall give written notice thereof to the other promptly after such Person learns or receives notice thereof. If all or any Significant Portion (as defined below) of the Parcel is, or is to be, the subject of such Taking (or is Taken), Buyer shall have the right to terminate its right and obligation under this Agreement to purchase such Parcel only (and such Parcel shall then not be sold or transferred to Buyer at the Closing and the Purchase Price shall be appropriately adjusted to deduct therefrom the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Parcel pursuant to the Summary Sheet) by delivery of a written termination notice to Seller no later than ten (10) business days after the Buyer first discovers or learns about the Taking. If Buyer elects not to terminate its right and obligation to purchase such Parcel under this Agreement, all proceeds, awards and other payments arising out of such Taking (actual or threatened) shall be paid or assigned, as applicable, to Buyer at Closing, and there shall be no credit to or adjustment of the Purchase Price allocable to such Parcel or otherwise. Seller will not settle or compromise any such proceeding without Buyer's prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). As used herein, a Taking of a "SIGNIFICANT PORTION" of a Parcel shall mean (i) the permanent Taking of a legally required driveway, if such driveway is the sole or material means of vehicular ingress and egress into and from such Parcel, (ii) any permanent Taking that results in the denial of a primary access to such 36 Parcel, (iii) any Taking of any portion of such Parcel for which the applicable governmental entity pays or may be reasonably expected to pay a condemnation award or other compensation to the owner of the Parcel in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the then fair market value of the Parcel (as reasonably determined by the insurer providing casualty insurance for the Parcel), or (iv) any permanent Taking of any portion of the Parcel that would materially adversely prevent or interfere with the operation of the Parcel as an eighteen (18) hole golf course. The provisions of this SECTION 7.1 supersede the provisions of any applicable statutory or decisional law with respect to the subject matter of this SECTION 7.1. 7.2 RISK OF LOSS. If any Parcel is damaged or destroyed prior to the Closing, Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall give written notice thereof to the other promptly after such Person learns or receives notice thereof. If all or any Material Portion (as defined hereinbelow) of a Parcel is so damaged or destroyed, then the Buyer shall have the right to terminate its right and obligation under this Agreement to purchase such Parcel only (and such Parcel shall then not be sold or transferred to Buyer at the Closing and the Purchase Price shall be appropriately adjusted to deduct therefrom the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Parcel pursuant to the Summary Sheet) by delivery of a written termination notice to Seller no later than ten (10) business days after the Buyer first discovers or learns about the damage or destruction. If Buyer elects not to terminate its right and obligation to purchase such Parcel under this Agreement, all proceeds from any insurance carried with respect to such damage or destruction shall be paid or assigned, as applicable, to Buyer at Closing, and there shall be no credit to or adjustment of the Purchase Price allocable to such Parcel or otherwise. For purposes of this Agreement, a "MATERIAL PORTION" of a Parcel shall be deemed to have been damaged or destroyed (i) if such damage or destruction is covered by Seller's casualty insurance and the cost to repair and/or restore the improvements on such Parcel which are damaged or destroyed exceeds twenty percent (20%) of the then fair market value of the Parcel (as reasonably determined by the insurer providing casualty insurance for the Parcel), or (ii) if such damage or destruction is not covered by Seller's casualty insurance and the cost to repair and/or restore the improvements on such Parcel which are damaged or destroyed exceeds five percent (5%) of then fair market value of the Parcel (as reasonably determined by the insurer providing casualty insurance for the Parcel). The provisions of this SECTION 7.2 supersede the provisions of any applicable statutory or decisional law with respect to the subject matter of this SECTION 7.2. 7.3 REAL ESTATE BROKER. There is no real estate broker involved in this transaction. Buyer warrants and represents to Seller that Buyer has not dealt with any real estate broker in connection with this transaction, nor has Buyer been introduced to the Property (or any Parcel or part thereof) or to Seller by any real estate broker, and Buyer shall indemnify Seller and save and hold Seller harmless from and against any claims, suits, demands or liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever arising on account of the claim of any Person to a real estate brokerage commission or a finder's fee as a result of having dealt with Buyer, or as a result of having introduced Buyer to Seller or to the Property (or any Parcel or part thereof). In like manner, Seller warrants and represents to Buyer that Seller has not dealt with any real estate broker in connection with this transaction, nor has Seller been introduced to Buyer by any real estate broker, and Seller shall indemnify Buyer and save and hold Buyer harmless from and against any claims, suits, demands or liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever arising on account of the claim of any Person to a real estate brokerage commission or a finder's fee as a result of having dealt with Seller in connection with this transaction. 37 7.4 CONFIDENTIALITY. Except as hereinafter provided, from and after the Effective Date, Buyer and Seller shall keep the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and all information delivered by Seller to Buyer or Buyer to Seller under or pursuant to this Agreement confidential and neither shall make any public announcements hereof unless the other first approves of same in writing, nor shall either disclose the terms, conditions and provisions hereof, except to their respective consultants, advisors, attorneys, accountants, engineers, surveyors, financiers, Seller's proposed third-party purchasers and bankers (but only to the extent necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and only if such party first obtains such Person's agreement to maintain the confidentiality of such information) or as may be required by law or court order, or as may be required in connection with any litigation between the parties hereto relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is acknowledged that the Seller is a public company and will make a public announcement concerning this transaction (including, without limitation, by the issuance of proxy statements to its shareholders seeking the approval of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement), and Seller will have the absolute right to prepare and file all necessary or required proxy statements and other papers, documents and instruments necessary or required in Seller's judgment and that of its attorneys in order to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to make such disclosures therein as necessary and thus to the SEC and/or to similar federal or state authorities and to the public, of all of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement. The obligations of this SECTION 7.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. ARTICLE 8 LIABILITY OF BUYER; INDEMNIFICATION BY SELLER; TERMINATION RIGHTS 8.1 TERMINATION BY BUYER. If any Buyer's Closing Condition set forth herein cannot or will not be satisfied prior to Closing, or upon the occurrence of any other event that would entitle Buyer to terminate this Agreement and its obligations under this Agreement, and Seller fails to cure any such matter within ten (10) business days after notice thereof from Buyer, Buyer, at its option, may elect as its sole rights and remedies (except as otherwise provided hereinbelow) either (a) to terminate this Agreement and all other rights and obligations of Seller and Buyer under this Agreement shall terminate immediately, or (b) to waive its right to terminate and to waive any breach or default on the part of Seller (if any) and, instead, to proceed to Closing (PROVIDED THAT, if Seller nevertheless fails or refuses to close the transactions hereunder in any such event, Buyer shall NOT have the right of specific performance (or any other right in equity) or the right to record or file a lis pendens or similar lien against any Parcel, it being acknowledged and agreed that Buyer has waived any such rights and remedies and that its sole rights and remedies will be limited to those rights and remedies expressly stated in this SECTION 8.1). In addition to and notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a material breach or default of Seller under this Agreement that is not cured within ten (10) business days (or such additional time as may be reasonably necessary to cure such breach or default) after notice thereof from Buyer to Seller, or if the Company's Board of Directors revokes its authorization of the transactions described herein after such Board has approved the same (unless the Board revokes such authorization as a result of the failure to obtain the Seller's Consents after Seller, Seller's Affiliates and the Board of Directors have made a good faith effort to obtain such Seller's Consents as required by SECTION 3.2), or if the Company's Board of Directors 38 permits any Seller Affiliate to revoke its authorization of the transactions, and if the Closing fails to occur as a result of any of the foregoing reasons, then Buyer may terminate this Agreement and recover from Seller its actual and verifiable out-of-pocket, but not consequential, benefit-of-the-bargain or other, damages incurred by Buyer in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereunder and/or otherwise as a direct result of Seller's breach or default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated or implied in this Agreement or any other document or instrument executed or delivered in connection with the transactions described herein (collectively, the "TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS"), Seller's aggregate liability for any and all defaults or breaches under the Transaction Documents and/or in connection with the transactions provided for therein shall not in any event exceed the sum of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000). As material consideration to Seller's entering into and executing this Agreement with Buyer, Buyer (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates and all Persons claiming by or through any of them) hereby expressly waives the remedy of specific performance on account of any Seller breach or default hereunder and any right at law or in equity that any such Person may have to record a lis pendens or notice of pendency of action or similar notice or lien against all or any portion of a Parcel. 8.2 TERMINATION BY SELLER. If any Seller's Closing Condition set forth herein for the benefit of Seller (other than a default by Buyer) cannot or will not be satisfied prior to Closing, and Buyer fails to cure any such matter within ten (10) business days after notice thereof from Seller, Seller may, at its option in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the rights and obligations of Seller and Buyer hereunder shall terminate immediately and, unless the Agreement is terminated as a result of Buyer's breach or default hereunder, the Deposit OP Units shall not be transferred to Seller (PROVIDED THAT, the Seller shall continue to retain and hold the Deposit OP Units as collateral pursuant and subject to the terms and provisions of the Buyer Leases and related Pledge Agreements pertaining to the Parcels), (b) terminate this Agreement with respect to any particular Parcel that is at issue only (PROVIDED THAT, no portion of the Deposit OP Units shall be transferred to Seller as a result of such termination under this CLAUSE (b)), in which event the rights and obligations of Seller and Buyer with respect to the purchase and sale of such Parcel hereunder shall terminate immediately, but the rights and obligations of Seller and Buyer under this Agreement with respect to all other Parcels shall continue in full force and effect, or (c) waive its right to terminate, and instead, to proceed to Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated or implied herein, in no event shall Seller have the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to all of the Myrtle Beach Parcels (other than the Oyster Bay Parcel, which may be terminated pursuant to SECTION 4.12 hereof) and proceed to close with the Buyer on the Virginia Parcels and/or Non-Core Parcels only. If, prior to Closing, Buyer defaults in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect (including, without limitation, its obligation to purchase the Property or any Parcel and/or its obligation to timely and faithfully perform in all material respects each and every covenant and agreement set forth herein or in the Buyer Leases), and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Buyer fails to cure any such default within ten (10) business days after notice thereof from Seller, then Seller may elect either to (i) seek specific performance of the Buyer's obligation to purchase the Property (other than Terminated Parcels or Parcels to be sold to third-party purchasers pursuant to SECTION 8.3 below) and/or perform its other obligations pursuant to the terms, provisions and conditions hereunder, or (ii) terminate this Agreement in its entirety and receive and retain, as liquidated damages hereunder, the Deposit OP Units. ANY DEPOSIT OP UNITS PAID TO OR 39 RETAINED BY SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES HEREUNDER SHALL BE SELLER'S SOLE MONETARY REMEDY IF BUYER DEFAULTS (AS PROVIDED ABOVE) AND THE TRANSACTIONS HEREUNDER THEREBY FAIL TO CLOSE. THE PARTIES HERETO EXPRESSLY AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLER'S ACTUAL MONETARY DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF A DEFAULT BY BUYER WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE TO ASCERTAIN AND THAT THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES (I.E., THE VALUE OF THE DEPOSIT OP UNITS) STATED ABOVE REPRESENTS THE PARTIES' REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUCH DEPOSIT OP UNITS BY BUYER TO SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FOREFEITURE OR PENALTY, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER. In addition to the foregoing rights and remedies of the Seller, and in furtherance and not in limitation of its rights under SECTION 4.7 of this Agreement, if this Agreement is terminated in connection with a Buyer breach or default, Buyer (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) hereby covenants and agrees to execute and deliver to Seller any and all documentation reasonably requested by Seller in order to terminate the Buyer Leases, management agreements and all other instruments and agreements by and between Seller and Buyer (or an Affiliate of Buyer) pertaining to the Non-Core Parcels and/or the Virginia Parcels (or any of them as directed by Seller), and to promptly vacate and turn such Non-Core Parcels and/or Virginia Parcels (or any of them as directed by Seller) over to Seller or its designee, all promptly after the termination of this Agreement and the delivery of written notice from Seller to Buyer requesting the same. Each Affiliate of Buyer who is a "tenant" under a Buyer Lease for the Non-Core Parcels and/or Virginia Parcels has executed the Acknowledgment, Consent and Agreement Page attached hereto for the purposes of evidencing its acknowledgment of and consent to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.2 and its agreement to be bound by the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.2. 8.3 SELLER'S RIGHT TO SELL TO THIRD-PARTIES. In addition to the foregoing rights of Seller, Seller shall at all times following the Effective Date and prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on February 28, 2001 have the right to continue to market the Myrtle Beach Parcels and consider and accept offers for the purchase of any such Myrtle Beach Parcel(s) from third-parties, and to sell any such Myrtle Beach Parcel(s) to any such third-party (whether or not such sale is actually consummated and closes after February 28, 2001), notwithstanding this Agreement, subject to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.3. In addition to the foregoing rights of Seller, Seller shall at all times following the Effective Date and prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date of the Company's shareholder meeting convened to approve the Company's proposed plan of liquidation (which includes shareholder approval of the transactions described in this Agreement) have the right to continue to market each of the Virginia Parcels and Non-Core Parcels and consider and accept offers for the purchase of each of such Virginia Parcels and Non-Core Parcels from third-parties, and to sell any such Virginia Parcel and/or Non-Core Parcel to any such third-party (whether or not such sale is actually consummated and closes after the date of such shareholder meeting), notwithstanding this Agreement, subject to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.3. Any sale of a Parcel to a third-party pursuant to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.3 shall be referred to in this Agreement as a "THIRD-PARTY SALE". (a) If Seller receives a bona-fide written offer (such offer, a "THIRD-PARTY OFFER") from a potential third-party purchaser for the sale of one or more Parcel(s) (other than a Terminated Parcel), which offer is not subject to a financing contingency, 40 at a price that exceeds the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Parcel pursuant to this Agreement (as set forth on the Summary Sheet), then prior to the Company's Board of Directors accepting such Third-Party Offer, Seller shall deliver to Buyer written notice of the offered price for the Parcel set forth in such Third-Party Offer. Buyer shall have three (3) business days after its receipt of any such written notice from Seller to deliver to Seller a written counter-offer for the sale of the Parcel to the Buyer on the terms and provisions of this Agreement (PROVIDED THAT, if the original Third-Party Offer provides for the sale of both Virginia Parcels as an all-or-nothing sale, then Buyer may only submit a counter-offer that provides for the purchase by Buyer or its Affiliates of both Virginia Parcels and not one Virginia Parcel without the other), but for a purchase price that exceeds the proposed price set forth in the Third-Party Offer by at least five percent (5%). Any such counter-offer shall be accompanied by an amendment to this Agreement increasing the Purchase Price hereunder (and the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Parcel) by the difference between the purchase price set forth in the counter-offer and the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the Parcel (or Parcels in the event of an all-or-nothing sale of the Virginia Parcels) pursuant to this Agreement immediately prior to such amendment. If Buyer delivers such a counter-offer within the said three (3) business day period, then Seller shall execute the enclosed amendment to this Agreement, in which event the Purchase Price and the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Parcel(s) hereunder shall be increased as provided in the counter-offer and enclosed amendment. If Buyer fails to deliver such counter-offer, together with the required amendment to this Agreement, within such three (3) business day period, then Seller shall be free to proceed with the sale of such Parcel(s) to the third-party purchaser. If Seller proceeds with the Third-Party Sale of a Non-Retained Site as provided herein, then on the later of (x) the execution of a purchase and sale agreement between Seller and such third-party purchaser for the sale of such Non-Retained Site and (y) the first day after the expiration of the Buyer's three (3) business day period to deliver a counter-offer, Buyer shall execute and deliver to Seller a transition agreement ("TRANSITION AGREEMENT") substantially in the form of EXHIBIT S attached hereto (containing such revisions and modifications as are reasonably necessary in order to address specific issues relating to such Non-Retained Site). In no event shall any counter-offer of the Buyer hereunder preclude or prevent the Seller from continuing to market the Parcel(s) and entertain offers for the Parcel(s) from any proposed third-party purchaser, and, if any Third-Party Offer is thereafter made that provides for a price for the Parcel(s) that exceeds the portion of the Purchase Price for such Parcel(s) set forth in this Agreement (as such portion of the Purchase Price may have been previously increased by amendment pursuant to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.3(a)), then Seller may proceed with the terms and provisions of this SUBSECTION (a) and deliver to Buyer a written notice of the price set forth in such Third-Party Offer, in which event Buyer may submit a counter-offer, and the parties shall otherwise proceed, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this SUBSECTION (a). 41 (b) If Seller elects to sell any Parcel(s) to any such third party rather than Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer, and Buyer fails to exercise its rights set forth in SECTION 8.3(a) within the three (3) business day period provided therein, Seller may thereafter, in its sole and absolute discretion, notify Buyer in writing of its election to sell such Parcel to a third-party, and Buyer's rights and obligations under this Agreement to purchase such Parcel(s) shall then automatically terminate upon delivery of such notice by Seller. Buyer hereby further covenants and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated or implied in any other instrument, agreement or document between Seller (or any of its Affiliates) and Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) or otherwise pertaining to any such Parcel sold to a third-party pursuant to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.3, any Buyer Lease, management agreement and/or other agreement, instrument or document between Seller (or any of its Affiliates) and Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) affecting or relating to any Parcel(s) identified by Seller in the aforesaid notice to be transferred to a third-party hereunder (other than the Buyer Leases, management agreements and/or other agreements, instruments or documents [other than the Pledge Agreements, which Pledge Agreements will be terminated] pertaining to the Retained Sites, which shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such Third-Party Sale, PROVIDED THAT, such Buyer Leases relating to the Retained Sites will be amended as provided in SECTION 8.3(d)(2) below), shall be terminated effective as of the earlier of (x) the Third-Party Closing Date and (y) the Outside Lease Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any and all terms that by their express terms survive the expiration or termination of any such Buyer Lease, management agreement and/or other agreement, instrument or document, as the case may be, shall survive the termination of such Buyer Lease, management agreement and/or other agreement, instrument or document, as the case may be, under this SECTION 8.3. The Legends, Heritage and Oyster Bay Parcels shall be sometimes referred to herein individually as a "RETAINED SITE". All other Parcels (other than The Legends, Heritage and Oyster Bay Parcels) shall be sometimes referred to herein individually as a "NON-RETAINED SITE". (c) In the event of any such Third-Party Sale of a Parcel (other than a Terminated Parcel), upon the later of (x) the closing of such Third-Party Sale and (y) the Closing hereunder or the termination of this Agreement as a result of a Seller default, as the case may be, and only on the condition that (and if) such Third-Party Sale actually closes and the transactions hereunder actually close (or fail to close as a result of a Seller default hereunder), then subject to the terms and provisions of SECTION 8.4(a) below providing for the crediting of Deferred Rent and Interest (as defined below) against the following break-up fee obligation, Seller shall pay to Buyer, as a break-up fee and liquidated damages for the failure of Seller to close the transactions hereunder with respect to, and the termination of the Buyer Leases, management agreements and other agreements, instruments and/or documents by and between Seller (or any of its Affiliates) and Buyer (or any of its Affiliates), if terminated pursuant to this SECTION 8.3, pertaining to, such Parcel(s) (other than Terminated Parcels) which are sold to a third-party, an amount equal to the product of (x) three percent (3%) MULTIPLIED BY (y) the Purchase Price allocated to the Parcel(s) which is/are sold to such third-party as 42 identified and set forth in the Summary Sheet. The said break-up fee amount shall be set forth on the Third-Party Closing Statement and paid at the later of (i) the closing of the Third-Party Sale and (ii) the Closing hereunder or termination of this Agreement as a result of a Seller default hereunder, as the case may be. In no event, however, shall any payment, fee, amount or damages whatsoever be payable or due or owing to Buyer in the event that the Third-Party Sale of any Parcel is not consummated or does not close for any reason whatsoever or the transactions under this Agreement fail to close for any reason other than the default of Seller hereunder. ANY AMOUNT PAID TO BUYER (OR OFFSET AGAINST DEFERRED RENT AND INTEREST PURSUANT TO SECTION 8.4(a)) AS A BREAK-UP FEE AND/OR LIQUIDATED DAMAGES HEREUNDER SHALL BE BUYER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR SELLER'S FAILURE TO CLOSE THE SALE OF ANY PARCEL TO BUYER, AND THE TERMINATION OF THE BUYER LEASE, MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND OTHER AGREEMENTS, INSTRUMENTS AND/OR DOCUMENTS BY AND BETWEEN SELLER (OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES) AND BUYER (OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES), IF TERMINATED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 8.3, PERTAINING TO ANY SUCH PARCEL SOLD TO A THIRD PARTY, PURSUANT TO THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8.3. THE PARTIES HERETO EXPRESSLY AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT BUYER'S ACTUAL DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF THE SELLER'S FAILURE TO SELL TO BUYER ANY PARCEL, AND IN THE EVENT OF THE TERMINATION OF THE BUYER LEASE, MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND OTHER AGREEMENTS, INSTRUMENTS AND/OR DOCUMENTS BY AND BETWEEN SELLER (OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES) AND BUYER (OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES), IF TERMINATED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 8.3, PERTAINING TO ANY SUCH PARCEL SOLD TO A THIRD PARTY, PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 8.3 WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE TO ASCERTAIN AND THAT THE BREAK-UP FEE AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE REPRESENTS THE PARTIES' REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FOREFEITURE OR PENALTY, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO BUYER AS PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, SELLER AND BUYER AGREE THAT THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION IS NOT INTENDED AND SHOULD NOT BE DEEMED OR CONSTRUED TO LIMIT IN ANY WAY SELLER'S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 7.3 OR TO LIMIT OR OTHERWISE IN ANY WAY AFFECT ANY OF BUYER'S RIGHTS OR REMEDIES AGAINST SELLER UNDER ANY BUYER LEASE, MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT OR OTHER AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT PERTAINING TO ANY OF THE PARCELS (TO THE EXTENT ACCRUING THEREUNDER PRIOR TO THE TERMINATION OF THE SAME). 43 (d) In connection with any such Third-Party Sale, Buyer (and/or its Affiliate that is the tenant of the Parcel that is the subject of such Third-Party Sale) and Seller (where appropriate) shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to one another or, at Seller's direction, to the third-party purchaser of such Parcel, the following instruments and documents: (1) A certificate in favor of the third-party purchaser of the Parcel and Seller, pursuant to which Buyer (on behalf of itself and its Affiliate who leased and operated the Parcel) and its Affiliate who leased and operated the Parcel each represents and warrants to such third-party purchaser and Seller that it has delivered to such third-party purchaser and Seller all of the instruments and documents in the representing party's possession or within its control affecting or relating in any way to the Parcel; (2) With respect to each Retained Site that is sold to a third-party, an amendment to the Buyer Lease and, if applicable, management agreement and other agreements, instruments and/or documents relating thereto, which amendment shall delete all provisions connecting the Parcel that is sold to the other Parcels to the extent such other Parcel(s) are not sold to or acquired by the third-party to whom such Retained Site is sold; (3) With respect to each Non-Retained Site that is sold to a third-party, the following: (i) a termination of the applicable Buyer Lease and any management agreement and other agreements, instruments and/or documents between Seller (or any of its Affiliates) and Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) relating to such Parcel, substantially in the form of EXHIBIT N attached hereto; and (ii) any and all quitclaim deeds, bills of sale and other conveyance documents (PROVIDED THAT, such documents will contain only quitclaim covenants and warranties) reasonably required by Seller in order to transfer and convey to such third-party purchaser any and all right, title and interest of Buyer in and to the Parcel, including, without limitation, all property owned by Buyer or its Affiliate that would be, if owned by Seller, Golf Course Improvements, Golf Course Real Property, Golf Course Tangible Personal Property, Golf Course Intangible Personal Property or Golf Course Contracts hereunder, BUT SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDING the property described on SCHEDULE 8.3(d)(3)(ii) attached hereto (which property shall be retained and continue to be owned by Buyer or its Affiliate(s), as the case may be, from and after the Closing). (e) Upon the closing of a Third-Party Sale of a Parcel, Seller and Buyer shall prorate all items of income and expense accruing with respect to such Parcel in 44 accordance with the terms and provisions of SECTION 6.5(b) or SECTION 6.5(c), as applicable, and Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall pay to the other the net proration payment required to be paid pursuant to said SECTION 6.5(b) or 6.5(c), as applicable. (f) Each Affiliate of Buyer who is a "tenant" under a Buyer Lease has executed the Acknowledgment, Consent and Agreement Page attached hereto for the purposes of evidencing its acknowledgment of and consent to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.3 and its agreement to be bound by the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.3. 8.4 PROVISIONS RELATING TO BUYER LEASES AND NOTES. (a) The following terms and provisions of this SUBSECTION (a) shall apply with respect to the Non-Core Parcels. From and after the Effective Date, and for each calendar month during the term of this Agreement, Buyer (or its Affiliate(s) who is/are the tenant(s) under the Buyer Leases for the Non-Core Parcels) shall be permitted to defer the payment of a portion of the aggregate monthly Base Rent (as defined in the Buyer Leases) due and payable under such Buyer Leases for the Non-Core Parcels and monthly interest payments due and payable under the Notes pertaining to such Non-Core Parcels (although said Base Rent and interest shall continue to accrue during such period of time) in an amount equal the Negative Cash Flow (as defined hereinbelow) of the Non-Core Parcels for such month; PROVIDED THAT, the maximum amount of Base Rent and Note interest payments that may be deferred under the Buyer Leases and Notes hereunder, taken as a whole, shall not exceed, at any time during the term of this Agreement, the sum of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) in the aggregate. The sum of all Base Rent and Note interest deferred pursuant to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.4(a) shall be referred to in this Agreement as the "DEFERRED RENT AND INTEREST". If, prior to the Closing or the termination of this Agreement, as the case may be, any Parcel is sold to a third-party pursuant to a Third-Party Sale, then there shall be credited against the break-up fee otherwise payable by Seller pursuant to SECTION 8.3(c) of this Agreement, any Deferred Rent and Interest then accrued and unpaid, and the amount of Deferred Rent and Interest hereunder shall be proportionately reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount thereof credited against Seller's obligation to pay such break-up fee. All Deferred Rent and Interest that has not been previously paid or credited against any break-up fee(s) (as provided in the immediately preceding sentence) shall become immediately due and payable upon the earlier to occur of (i) the Closing and (ii) the termination of this Agreement, and Buyer (or its Affiliates, as the case may be) shall pay to Seller all such Deferred Rent and Interest on the Closing Date or the date of termination of this Agreement, as the case may be. Buyer (and its Affiliates who are tenants under the Buyer Leases) shall provide to Seller, on a monthly basis as of the end of each calendar month during the term of this Agreement, such financial statements (including, without limitation, bank statements, check registers and other such records) regarding the operation of the Non-Core Parcels as the Seller may reasonably require in order to verify any 45 Negative Cash Flow derived from such Non-Core Parcels for such month. As used herein, the term "NEGATIVE CASH FLOW" shall mean, for any month during the term of this Agreement, the amount by which (x) the aggregate Base Rent payable under the Buyer Leases for the Non-Core Parcels for such month, together with the aggregate interest payments payable under the Notes for such month, EXCEED (y) the aggregate EBITDARM (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization, Rent and Management Fees), calculated on a cash basis, derived by Buyer (or its Affiliate(s), as the case may be) from the Non-Core Parcels for such month; PROVIDED THAT, if the aggregate EBITDARM, calculated on a cash basis, derived by Buyer (or its Affiliate(s), as the case may be) from the Non-Core Parcels during any month is negative, then subject to the $750,000 cap on Deferred Rent and Interest provided above, all Base Rent and Note interest payable by Buyer under such Buyer Leases and Notes shall be deferred for such month. EBITDARM shall be calculated on a cash basis. The parties hereby acknowledge that Base Rent and interest under the Notes for the Non-Core Parcels are currently payable in arrears, at the end of each calendar month. In order to provide Buyer and its Affiliate(s) with the necessary period of time to calculate the EBITDARM and Negative Cash Flow derived from the Non-Core Parcels for any month, Seller and Buyer hereby agree that, during the term of this Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in the Buyer Leases or Notes for the Non-Core Parcels, subject to the right to defer the payment of Deferred Rent and Interest hereunder, Base Rent and interest under the Notes for the Non-Core Parcels for any calendar month shall be due and payable in arrears on the tenth (10th) calendar day of the immediately succeeding calendar month, and Buyer (and/or its Affiliate(s) under such Buyer Leases) shall be deemed in payment default thereunder, subject to the expiration of all applicable notice and cure periods, if any, if said Base Rent and/or interest are not paid on or prior to such tenth (10th) calendar day, in which event Seller shall have all rights and remedies available to Seller under the applicable documents with respect to such payment default (including, without limitation, the right to default interest, late charges and other such default charges). (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein or in the Buyer Leases or Notes, all Base Rent under the Buyer Leases and interest payments under the Notes for any Non-Core Parcel (including, without limitation, any Non-Core Parcel that is also a Terminated Parcel) that is the subject of a Third-Party Sale shall cease to accrue and shall no longer be due and payable to Seller on the earlier of (x) the Third-Party Closing Date for the sale of such Non-Core Parcel and (y) the Closing Date hereunder. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein or in the Buyer Leases, Pledge Agreements, Notes and/or other agreements, instruments or documents between the parties and/or their Affiliates relating to a Parcel (including, without limitation, any Terminated Parcel), if the Closing hereunder occurs, then all Buyer Leases (other than the Buyer Leases for any Retained Sites that have been or are to be sold to a third-party purchaser, which shall survive pursuant to and in accordance with SECTION 8.3(b) of this Agreement), Pledge Agreements, Notes 46 and/or other agreements, instruments or documents between the parties and/or their Affiliates that have not been previously terminated or cancelled pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise shall automatically terminate and be cancelled (and thereafter be of no further force or effect) at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the thirtieth (30th) calendar day after the Closing Date (the "OUTSIDE LEASE TERMINATION DATE"). The parties shall make all prorations and/or adjustments required to be made upon termination and/or cancellation of such terminated Buyer Leases and/or Notes in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof on and as of such Outside Lease Termination Date, and Buyer shall execute and deliver all documents required to be delivered by Buyer in the event of the closing of a Third-Party Sale of a Non-Retained Site pursuant to SECTION 8.3(d)(3) above. If any of such Non-Retained Sites are, on the Outside Lease Termination Date, the subject of a Third-Party Sale, then on the Outside Lease Termination Date, Seller shall assume the rights and obligations of Buyer (or its Affiliate, as the case may be) under the Transition Agreement, and Seller shall release Buyer (and/or its Affiliate, as the case may be) from all obligations and liabilities of the "Tenant" accruing under the Transition Agreement from and after the Outside Lease Termination Date, and Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Buyer (and/or its Affiliate, as the case may be) harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) of the "Tenant" accruing under the Transition Agreement from and after the Outside Lease Termination Date. In addition to and/or in lieu of the foregoing, as the case may be, if any such Parcels are, on the Outside Lease Termination Date, the subject of a Third-Party Sale, then all prorations and other transactions required to occur under the Transition Agreement therefor upon the closing of such Third-Party Sale shall occur on the Outside Lease Termination Date as though Seller were the "Purchaser" under such Transition Agreement, and Seller shall assume Buyer's interest as "Tenant" under the Transition Agreement, and such Transition Agreement shall continue in full force and effect between Seller and the "Purchaser" thereunder. (d) Provided that no event or circumstance exists that would cause any of the Buyer's Closing Conditions to fail and there exists no alleged breach or default by Seller or Buyer hereunder as of June 1, 2001, and if the Closing hereunder has not previously occurred and this Agreement has not been previously terminated, then from and after (and including) June 1, 2001 the Base Rent (as defined in the Buyer Leases) and interest payments due under the Notes for the Non-Core Parcels (including any Non-Core Parcels that are then Terminated Parcels) shall, from and after June 1, 2001, accrue (and be due and payable in accordance with the Buyer Leases and/or Notes, as the case may be) at the Reduced Rates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in this SECTION 8.4, if this Agreement expires or is otherwise terminated after June 1, 2001, and the Closing contemplated hereunder fails to occur, then immediately on the first (1st) calendar day following such expiration or termination of this Agreement, the original terms and provisions of the Buyer Leases and Notes for such Non-Core Parcels shall be reinstated, the terms and provisions of this SECTION 8.4(d) shall be of no further 47 force or effect, and the terms and provisions of the Buyer Leases and Notes for the Non-Core Parcels (unamended by this Agreement) shall govern and control the amount of Base Rent and/or interest, as the case may be, accruing thereunder from and after the date of expiration or termination of this Agreement, such that Buyer (or its Affiliate, as the case may be) shall once again pay 100% of the Base Rent and interest payable under such Buyer Leases and Notes for periods accruing from and after the expiration or termination of this Agreement. As used herein, the "REDUCED RATES" for any Non-Core Parcel that is not a Terminated Parcel shall mean an amount equal to the product of (i) fifty percent (50%) MULTIPLIED BY (ii) the Base Rent and interest payments that accrued and became due and payable under the Buyer Leases and/or Notes, as the case may be, immediately prior to June 1, 2001. (e) Seller hereby agrees that the capital expenditures and amounts described on SCHEDULE 8.4(e) have been approved by Seller for reimbursement to Buyer or its Affiliates under the Buyer Leases as of the Effective Date. In addition to and not in lieu of any of the foregoing provisions of this SECTION 8.4 above, in lieu of reimbursing such capital expenditure amounts in cash from the Capital Replacement Reserve and Capital Replacement Fund (as such terms are defined in the Buyer Leases), the amounts set forth in SCHEDULE 8.4(e) shall be credited against Buyer's or its Affiliates' rental obligations under the Buyer Leases (in such proportion and order as Buyer may reasonably desire), until there has been credited against said rental obligations an aggregate amount equal to the total amount set forth in SCHEDULE 8.4(e). In the event of the transfer of any Parcel(s) by Seller (whether to Buyer or its Affiliate(s) or to a third-party purchaser), the amounts held in the Capital Replacement Reserve and Capital Replacement Fund shall be treated in accordance with the applicable terms and provisions of the Buyer Leases until any such Parcel(s) is/are transferred to Buyer, its Affiliate(s) or any third-party purchaser, in which event such amounts shall be treated in accordance with the appropriate provisions of SECTION 6.5 hereof (PROVIDED THAT, the parties to such Buyer Lease(s) shall, at the Closing or Third-Party Closing, as the case may be, make any final reconciliation pertaining to the Capital Replacement Reserve and Capital Replacement Fund). 8.5 COSTS AND ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event of any litigation or dispute between the parties arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement, resulting in any litigation, arbitration or other form of dispute resolution, then the prevailing party in such litigation, arbitration or other dispute resolution proceeding shall be entitled to recover its costs of prosecuting and/or defending same, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees at trial and all appellate levels.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ____________________ ("DEBTOR") promises to pay to the order of Golf Trust of America, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("LENDER") the principal sum of ______________________ DOLLARS ($_________), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance (both before and after the "MATURITY DATE" as defined herein) at the rate provided below from the date hereof until payment in full. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement entered into by and between Lender and Legends Golf Holding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as of the date hereof (the "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"). 2. The obligations of Debtor under this Secured Promissory Note (this "NOTE") are secured by those certain Mortgages, Security Agreements, Assignments of Rents and Leases And Fixture Filings and Deeds of Trust, Security Agreements, Assignments of Rents and Leases And Fixture Filings, each dated as of even date herewith, between Debtor, as mortgagor or trustor (as applicable), and Lender, as mortgagee or beneficiary (as applicable) (hereinafter each referred to individually as a "MORTGAGE" and collectively as, the "MORTGAGES"), which Mortgages encumber all Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgages), including, without limitation, the Property (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). This Note, the Mortgages, the Guaranty dated of even date herewith by Larry D. Young in favor of Debtor (the "GUARANTY"), and the Hazardous Substances Remediation and Indemnification Agreement dated as of even date herewith by Debtor in favor of Lender, together with all other instruments and documents governing, evidencing and/or securing the loan evidenced by this Note and/or secured by the Mortgage and/or guarantied by the said Guaranty, are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "LOAN DOCUMENTS." 3. Interest payable hereunder will be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days, consisting of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months and the actual number of days elapsed for any applicable period during which interest is calculated. 4. Except with respect to default interest provided pursuant to PARAGRAPH 7 below, interest will accrue on amounts outstanding under this Note at a per annum rate equal at all times to the lesser of: (i) ten percent (10%); and (ii) the maximum annual interest rate permitted to be charged and collected by Lender by law. Interest will compound monthly (and thereafter accrue interest thereon at the rate stated hereinabove) as of the first calendar day of each calendar month. Any amount of interest received by Lender after 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on any day will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day, and interest will accrue on such amount through and including the date such amount is deemed paid. 5. Interest only will be due and payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar month from and after the date hereof until the Maturity Date. Interest due for any partial month shall be prorated on the basis of the actual number of days during such month that the loan evidenced by this Note remained outstanding and as otherwise provided pursuant to PARAGRAPH 7 above. The entire amount of unpaid principal and accrued but unpaid interest will all be due and payable in one lump sum amount on the "MATURITY DATE," which will be the earlier of [INSERT DATE THAT IS ONE DAY AFTER BANK TERM LOAN MATURITY DATE] or upon the occurrence of a Prepayment Event or an Event of Default in accordance with PARAGRAPH 11 below (the "MATURITY DATE"). 6. Principal and accrued but unpaid interest will be payable in lawful money of the United States to Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Maturity Date and without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. If payment is by check, it will be subject to collection. Any amount of principal or interest received by Lender after 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on any day will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day, and interest will accrue on such amount through and including the date such amount is deemed paid. 7. Debtor acknowledges and agrees that late payment to the Lender will cause the Lender to incur costs not contemplated by the loan, which costs include, without limitation, legal fees and processing and accounting fees and costs. If the principal, interest or any other amounts due and payable hereunder and/or under the other Loan Documents are not paid on or before the date that any such amounts become due and payable under and pursuant to this Note and/or such other Loan Documents, then in addition to the remedies conferred upon the Lender under this Note and/or the other Loan Documents, (a) a late charge of five percent (5%) of the amount due and unpaid as of such date will be added to the delinquent amount to compensate Lender for the expense of handling the delinquency, and (b) the entire amount due and payable but remaining unpaid under this Note and/or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the late charge described in CLAUSE (a) above, will bear interest at the lesser of (x) the sum of the interest rate set forth in PARAGRAPH 4 above plus five percent (5%) and (y) the highest rate of interest permitted to be charged and collected by Lender under applicable law, computed from the date such amounts became due and payable until all such amounts have been paid in full. The parties agree that this late charge represents a reasonable sum considering all the circumstances existing on the date hereof and represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Lender will incur by reason of late payment. The parties further agree that proof of actual damages would be impracticable, costly and/or inconvenient to prove. Acceptance of any late charge or default interest will not constitute a waiver of the default with respect to the overdue amount and will not prevent the Lender from exercising any other available rights and remedies. 8. This Note is secured by the Mortgages, which Mortgages create a second priority lien on the Mortgaged Property (as defined in the Mortgages), and the other Loan Documents. 9. Each Mortgage contains the following limitation: TRANSFERS BY MORTGAGOR. In order to induce Mortgagee to make the loan secured hereby, Mortgagor agrees that, in the event of any "TRANSFER" without the prior written consent of Mortgagee (which may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of Mortgagee), Mortgagee will have the absolute right at its option, without prior demand or notice, to declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable. Consent to one such transaction will not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require consent to future or successive transactions. Mortgagee may grant or deny such consent in its sole discretion and, if consent should be given, any such transfer will be subject to this Mortgage, and any such transferee will assume all obligations hereunder and agree to be bound by all provisions contained herein. Such assumption will not, however, release Mortgagor or any maker or guarantor of the Note from any liability thereunder without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. As used herein, a "TRANSFER" includes (i) the sale, transfer, conveyance, pledge, collateral assignment or hypothecation of the Mortgaged Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, excepting only any mortgage, pledge, hypothecation or transfer occurring in connection with a Senior Loan permitted under this Mortgage, (ii) the execution of any installment land sale contract or similar instrument affecting all or a portion of the Mortgaged Property, or (iii) the lease of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property (except as expressly permitted under the terms of this Mortgage). The term "TRANSFER" will also include (A) any merger, consolidation or dissolution of Mortgagor, any member in Mortgagor, or any entity that controls Mortgagor, and (B) the direct or indirect transfer, assignment, hypothecation or conveyance of legal or beneficial ownership of Mortgagor, any member of Mortgagor or any direct or indirect constituent of Mortgagor which would result in a change of Control of Mortgagor. For the purposes of this Note, the term "CONTROL" shall mean the power to direct or cause the direction of the management, policies or business decisions of the person, association or entity in question, whether by contract, through the ownership of voting securities or otherwise. 10. (a) The occurrence of any of the following will constitute an event of default ("EVENT OF DEFAULT") hereunder: (1) Lender fails to receive from Debtor in available funds all or any portion of any payment obligation under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents on or before the date the applicable sum becomes due and payable pursuant hereto or thereto, as the case may be, which failure Debtor does not cure within five (5) days after the date such sum became due and payable (a "PAYMENT DEFAULT"); or (2) Debtor violates any covenant or obligation of Debtor, other than an obligation the violation of which would be a Payment Default, in this Note or in any of the other Loan Documents or any representation or warranty made by Debtor in or pursuant to this Note or any of the other Loan Documents will prove to have been incorrect or misleading when made and Debtor fails to cure such failure or violation within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice from Lender (or if such failure or violation is of such character as to reasonably require more than fifteen (15) days to cure and Debtor fails within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice from Lender to commence the cure of such violation or failure or thereafter fails to pursue with reasonable diligence the curing of such violation or failure to completion). (3) An event of default occurs under any of the loan documents entered into by Debtor in connection with or evidencing the Short Term Loan, the Term Loan or the Bonaventure/Granite Loan (as each such term is defined in the Buyer's Loan Commitment). (b) The prepayment in full of any one of the Short Term Loan, Term Loan, and/ or Bonaventure/Granite Loan (as each such term is defined in the Buyer's Loan Commitment), shall constitute a "PREPAYMENT EVENT" hereunder. 11. Upon the occurrence of any Prepayment Event or Event of Default, Lender may, at its option and without any further demand or notice declare the entire balance of principal, together with all accrued interest thereon, due under this Note immediately due and payable, and the terms and provisions of PARAGRAPH 7 above will apply if such sums are not immediately paid. Lender may also exercise any other right or remedy available to Lender at law or in equity. The acceptance by Lender of any payment hereunder that is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment will not constitute a waiver by Lender of any right to declare an Event of Default hereunder or under any other Loan Document or to pursue any remedy available at law or in equity. An Event of Default hereunder will be deemed to be an Event of Default under the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, each of the Mortgages). The rights and remedies of Lender set forth in this Note are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive. 12. Demand, presentment, protest and notice of non-payment and protest are hereby waived by Debtor. No delay by Lender in exercising any right will operate as a waiver of such right under this Note. No single waiver will constitute or be deemed to be a continuous waiver of such or any other rights under this Note. Without in any way affecting the liability of the Debtor hereunder, Lender may extend the Maturity Date, accept additional security, release any party liable hereunder and release any security now or hereafter securing this Note. 13. Debtor agrees to pay all costs of collection when incurred, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, whether or not suit or action is commenced. If any suit or action is commenced to enforce this Note, Debtor promises to pay, in addition to the costs and disbursements otherwise allowed by law, such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable attorneys' fees in such suit or action, including upon any appeals. 14. This Note will be prepayable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time without notice, penalty, premium or bonus. Each payment will be credited first to accrued but unpaid interest and the balance to principal. 15. This Note has been delivered and accepted in the State of South Carolina and will be interpreted and the rights and liabilities of the parties hereto determined, in accordance with the laws of the State of South Carolina. 16. Each provision of this Note will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note will be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Note. 17. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given upon delivery if personally delivered (including delivery by facsimile transmission, except for payment, or by personal or overnight courier) or upon deposit if deposited in the United States mail for mailing with return receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed to the other party as follows: If to Debtor: ______________________ Post Office Box 2038 Myrtle Beach, South Carolina 29578-2038 Attention: Larry D.

It is the intent of Debtor and Lender in the execution of this Note and all other Loan Documents to contract in strict compliance with the applicable state and federal usury laws governing the loan evidenced by this Note. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lender and Debtor stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Note or in any of the other Loan Documents will ever be construed to create a contract for the use, forbearance or detention of money requiring payment of interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged by the applicable state and federal usury laws. Debtor will never be required to pay interest on this Note at a rate in excess of the maximum interest that may be lawfully charged under applicable laws and the provision of this Paragraph will control over all other provisions hereof and of any instrument executed in connection herewith which may be in apparent conflict herewith. In the event any holder of this Note will collect monies which are deemed to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the effective interest rate on this Note to a rate in excess of that permitted to be charged by the applicable state and federal laws, all such sums deemed to constitute interest in excess of the maximum rate will, at the option of the Lender, be credited to the payment of principal or returned to the Debtor. 19. If the date for any payment due under this Note should fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time will be included in computing any interest in respect of such payment. As used herein, "BUSINESS DAY" means a day other than Saturday, Sunday or a day that banks are legally closed for business in the State of South Carolina. All payments of principal and interest due hereunder will be made without deduction of any present and future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings from or on payments due from Debtor (excluding taxation of the overall net income of Lender), which amounts will be paid by Debtor. Debtor will pay the amounts necessary such that the gross amount of the principal and interest received by Lender is not less than that required by this Note. All stamp and documentary taxes will be paid by Debtor. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender pays such taxes, Debtor will reimburse Lender for the amount paid. Debtor will furnish Lender official tax receipts or other evidence of payment of all taxes.

(b) All policies of insurance required by this Mortgage (a) will be satisfactory in form, substance and amount to Mortgagee and written with companies satisfactory to Mortgagee, (b) will name Mortgagee as an additional insured as its interest may appear, (c) subject to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any), will contain a Standard Mortgagee's Loss Payable endorsement and other non-contributory standard mortgagee protection clauses acceptable to Mortgagee, and at Mortgagee's option, a waiver of subrogation rights by the insurer, (d) will contain an agreement by the insurer that such policy will not be amended or canceled without at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Mortgagee, and (e) will contain such other provisions as Mortgagee deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interests. Mortgagor will provide certificates of insurance (Accord-27 for Mortgaged Property, Accord 25-S for Liability) evidencing all coverage required above. Any policies containing a coinsurance clause will include a replacement cost endorsement adequate to ensure that the coinsurance clause is rendered inoperative. 8 (c) In the event a blanket policy is submitted to satisfy Mortgagor's obligations under this SECTION 3.11, in addition to such other requirements set forth herein, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee a certificate from such insurer indicating that Mortgagee is an insured under such policy. (d) Mortgagor will furnish evidence, satisfactory to Mortgagee, that (a) all insurance requirements (including provisions for waivers of subrogation) set forth in the Leases or any other Property Agreements affecting the Mortgaged Property will have been satisfied in all material respects by each party thereto; (b) Mortgagor's insurance coverage is sufficient (assuming the total destruction of the Mortgaged Property) to permit Mortgagor to rebuild the Improvements and to replace the Fixtures and Personalty in such a manner as to enable the Mortgaged Property to be operable as it is currently operated; and (c) if and to the extent applicable, Mortgagor has exercised commercially reasonable efforts to cause each tenant who is required by the terms of its Lease to maintain insurance on its leased premises and to cause Mortgagee to be named as an additional insured or loss payee under such insurance policies to do so. (e) Self-insurance (other than the applicable deductibles approved by Mortgagee) will not satisfy the requirements of this SECTION 3.11. (f) Subject to the rights of any Senior Lender under a Senior Loan, all of Mortgagor's right, title and interest in and to all policies of property insurance and any unearned premiums paid thereon are hereby assigned (to the fullest extent assignable) to Mortgagee who will have the right, but not the obligation, to assign the same to any purchaser of the Mortgaged Property at any foreclosure sale. (g) Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of any policy furnished pursuant to this SECTION 3.11, Mortgagor will provide Mortgagee with duplicate originals or certified copies of renewal policies together with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee of Mortgagor's payment of the applicable premiums. (h) Notwithstanding anything in this SECTION 3.11 to the contrary, if and to the extent a Senior Lender's insurance requirements are more comprehensive or otherwise more burdensome upon the Mortgagor than the insurance requirements set forth herein, then the Mortgagor shall comply with such Senior Lender's requirements and the failure to comply with such Senior Lender's requirements shall constitute a default of the Mortgagor hereunder; PROVIDED THAT, if the Senior Lender's requirements are less comprehensive or less burdensome, then at a minimum, Mortgagor shall comply with the terms and provisions of this SECTION 3.11 during the entire term of this Mortgage. SECTION 3.12. CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION. (a) With respect to any loss or damage to the Mortgaged Property caused by fire or other casualty the repair or restoration costs of which exceed, in any one instance, the sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), or any Taking of a material portion of the Mortgaged Property: (1) Mortgagor will notify Mortgagee in writing promptly after any such loss, damage or Taking, and prior to the making of any repairs thereto or restoration 9 thereof. Mortgagor will furnish to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days after such loss, damage or Taking (A) preliminary plans and specifications for the repair and reconstruction of the Mortgaged Property (the "PRELIMINARY PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS"); and (B) evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee: (1) of the cost of repair or reconstruction in accordance with the Preliminary Plans and Specifications, (2) that sufficient funds are available and/or committed for the benefit of Mortgagee, including insurance proceeds, condemnation award proceeds or other compensation, funds provided by Mortgagor, payment and performance bonds, or otherwise, to complete such repair or reconstruction, and (3) that such repair or reconstruction may be completed in accordance with all applicable Laws and Restrictions within the time frame described in SUBSECTION 3.12(a)(3) and that all necessary permits and approvals have been or will be obtained. (2) All insurance proceeds or condemnation award proceeds or other compensation on account of any damage or destruction to or Taking of the Mortgaged Property will be payable to, and deposited with, Mortgagee, subject to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any). Mortgagee, at its sole option (but subject to the prior rights of any Senior Lender and the terms and provisions of SUBSECTION 3.12(a)(3)), may (a) subject to SUBSECTION 3.12(a)(3), apply such insurance proceeds or condemnation award proceeds or other compensation in payment of the amounts due and owing under the Senior Loan (if any) and/or the Indebtedness or in satisfaction of any other Obligation, in such order as Mortgagee may determine, (b) use such insurance proceeds or condemnation award proceeds or other compensation to repair, reconstruct and/or replace the Improvements, Fixtures and Personalty, (c) release such insurance proceeds or condemnation award proceeds or other compensation to Mortgagor for repair, reconstruction and/or replacement of the Improvements, Fixtures and Personalty in accordance with the procedures described in SUBSECTION 3.12(a)(5), or (d) divide such proceeds or other compensation in any manner among any such application, use or release. No such application, use or release will, however, extend or postpone the due date of any installments under any Note or change the amount of such installments or cure or waive any Event of Default or notice of Event of Default under the Loan Documents or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice. (3) Notwithstanding the provisions of SUBSECTION 3.12(a)(2), if all or any part of the Mortgaged Property is damaged or destroyed or any part of the Mortgaged Property is Taken by any public or quasi-public authority, Mortgagee will make the net amount of all insurance proceeds and condemnation award proceeds or other compensation received by Mortgagee, after deduction of Mortgagee's reasonable costs and expenses, if any, in collection of the same and costs associated with Mortgagee's review of the Preliminary Plans and Specifications and other costs associated with disbursement of such proceeds (the "NET PROCEEDS"), available for the repair, reconstruction and/or replacement of the damaged or destroyed Mortgaged Property (or so much thereof as was not Taken) pursuant to the procedures described in SUBSECTION 3.12(a)(5), PROVIDED THAT, (a) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default will have occurred and will be continuing, (b) Mortgagor will have complied with the provisions of SUBSECTION 3.12(a)(1) and Mortgagee will have approved in its reasonable discretion the Preliminary Plans and Specifications, (c) Mortgagor will proceed with the reconstruction of such Mortgaged Property as nearly as possible to the condition it was in immediately prior to the occurrence of such casualty or Taking (the "OCCURRENCE") or better and in accordance with the Preliminary Plans and Specifications (and any changes thereto reasonably approved by Mortgagee) as promptly as is practicable after the Occurrence, but in no event later 10 than six (6) months after the Occurrence, (d) Mortgagee will have received evidence and will be satisfied that any reciprocal easement agreement or similar agreement benefiting the Mortgaged Property immediately prior to the Occurrence will remain in full force and effect after the repair or reconstruction of the Mortgaged Property, notwithstanding the Occurrence, (e) Mortgagee will have received evidence and will be satisfied that the Occurrence and the proposed repair or reconstruction of the Mortgaged Property will not cause a breach or default under any covenants, conditions and restrictions or other agreements of record binding upon and restricting the land upon which the Mortgaged Property is situated, (f) at Mortgagee's option, Mortgagee may require an updated environmental report, to be provided at the sole cost and expense of Mortgagor, to confirm that the Occurrence has had no adverse environmental impact on the Mortgaged Property and Mortgagee will be satisfied that the Occurrence has had no adverse environmental impact on the Mortgaged Property, (g) Mortgagee will be satisfied that such reconstruction can be completed no later than six (6) months after the Occurrence, (h) Mortgagee will be satisfied that the reconstruction can be completed at a cost that does not exceed the Net Proceeds or, if the cost of such restoration exceeds the Net Proceeds, Mortgagor will have satisfied the requirements set forth in SUBSECTION 3.12(a)(6), (i) Mortgagee will be satisfied that Mortgagor (whether with business interruption insurance proceeds or otherwise) will continue to be able to timely pay all payments as they become due on the Senior Loan (if any) and the Indebtedness during such period of repair, reconstruction and restoration, (j) Mortgagor will cause such reconstruction and/or restoration to be completed with due diligence as promptly as possible after commencement, but in no event later than six (6) months after the Occurrence, (k) Mortgagee determines, in its reasonable discretion, that repair or reconstruction is economically feasible, and (l) Mortgagor will have entered into a general construction contract acceptable in all respects to Mortgagee for completion of the repair, reconstruction and/or restoration, which contract must include provision for a retainage of not less than ten percent (10%) until full completion of the repair, reconstruction and/or restoration. (4) Subject to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any), Mortgagee will be entitled to settle and adjust all insurance claims during an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default, and the written consent of Mortgagee will be required for any claims for damages of more than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000). Mortgagee may deduct and retain from the proceeds of any insurance the amount of all reasonable expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with any settlement or adjustment of such claims. (5) The Net Proceeds and any additional funds deposited by Mortgagor with Mortgagee will constitute additional security for the Loan. Mortgagor will execute, deliver, file and/or record, at its own expense, such documents and instruments as Mortgagee deems necessary or advisable to grant to Mortgagee a perfected security interest in the Net Proceeds and such additional funds, subject only to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any). Mortgagee will pay the Net Proceeds to Mortgagor from time to time during the course of the restoration, subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) The work will be administered and overseen by an architect or engineer approved by Mortgagee in its reasonable discretion ("ARCHITECT"). Complete copies of the final plans and specifications for the work (the "FINAL PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS"), approved by all governmental authorities whose approval is required, and bearing the sealed and signed approval thereof by the Architect and accompanied by 11 the Architect's signed estimate of the entire cost of completing the work, will be delivered to Mortgagee; (ii) Each request for payment will be made upon seven (7) days' prior notice to Mortgagee and will be accompanied by a certificate to be made by the Architect stating that (A) all of the work completed has been done in compliance with the Final Plans and Specifications, as approved by Mortgagee, (B) the sum requested is justly required to reimburse Mortgagor for payments by Mortgagor to, or is justly due to, the contractor, subcontractors, materialmen, laborers, engineers, architects or other persons rendering services and/or materials for the work (giving a brief description of such services and materials) and, when added to all sums previously paid out by Mortgagee, does not exceed the value of the work done to the date of such certificate, and (C) an estimate as to the amount required and remaining to be paid in order to complete the work and to pay for the same in full; (iii) Each request will be accompanied by waivers of liens satisfactory to Mortgagee covering that part of the work for which payment or reimbursement is being requested and, if required by Mortgagee, by a search prepared by a title company satisfactory to Mortgagee, that there has not been filed with respect to the Mortgaged Property any mechanics', materialmen's or other lien; (iv) The request for any payment after the work has been completed will be accompanied by a copy of any certificate or certificates required by any Laws and Restrictions for legal occupancy and use of the Improvements; (v) Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee certified or photostatic copies of all permits and approvals required by any Laws and Restrictions in connection with the commencement and conduct of the work; and (vi) Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee a surety bond for and/or guaranty of the payment for and completion of the work or any other similar assurance (such as a letter of credit) acceptable to Mortgagee, which bond, guaranty or other assurance will be in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee and in an amount not less than the Architect's estimate of the entire cost of completing the work. (6) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, or in any of the insurance policies or condemnation award judgments, but subject to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any), in connection with any casualty where the loss or damage exceeds the sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or any Taking where the condemnation award or other compensation exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000), all proceeds paid to Mortgagor under such policies for such loss or damage or in connection with any such Taking will be immediately delivered to Mortgagee. If the Net Proceeds exceed the costs of completion of the restoration of a Mortgaged Property, then subject to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any), such excess proceeds will belong and be retained by and/or paid over to Mortgagee to be applied against the Indebtedness. If at any time the Net Proceeds will not, in Mortgagee's reasonable opinion, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs that will be incurred in connection with the repair and reconstruction of the Mortgaged Property and all payments as they come due on the Senior Loan (if any) and the Indebtedness and all other obligations that are or may be secured by a lien on the Mortgaged Property during the 12 reconstruction and/or restoration period, Mortgagor will, prior to receiving any further disbursement, either (a) complete, using Mortgagor's own funds, such portion of the reconstruction and/or restoration as will be sufficient to render the Net Proceeds sufficient to complete the reconstruction, or (b) deposit the deficiency with Mortgagee before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds will be made, which deficiency deposit will be disbursed on the same conditions applicable to the Net Proceeds. Mortgagee will remit to Mortgagor the balance, if any, of any such deficiency deposit remaining after completion of the reconstruction and/or restoration. (b) PROCEEDINGS. Mortgagor, immediately upon obtaining knowledge of the commencement of any proceedings for the Taking of an entire Mortgaged Property or any material part thereof, will notify Mortgagee of the pendency of such proceedings. Mortgagee may participate in any such proceedings and Mortgagor from time to time will deliver to Mortgagee all instruments requested by Mortgagee to permit such participation. In the event of such condemnation proceedings, if the Condemnation Award exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000), then subject to the rights of the Senior Lender (if any), the Condemnation Award payable will be assigned to and will be paid to Mortgagee. Mortgagee will be under no obligation to question the amount of any such Condemnation Award and may accept the same in the amount in which the same will be paid. In any such condemnation proceedings, Mortgagee may be represented by counsel selected by Mortgagee, the cost of such counsel to be borne by Mortgagor. Subject to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any), the proceeds of any Condemnation Award so received will, at the option of Mortgagee (but subject to the terms and provisions of SUBSECTION 3.12(a) above), either be applied to the prepayment of the Indebtedness or be paid over to Mortgagor for restoration of the Improvements in accordance with the provisions of SUBSECTION 3.12(a). Mortgagor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives all rights of a property owner under applicable law providing for the allocation of Condemnation Awards between a property owner and a lien holder. (c) CONDEMNATION AWARDS. Mortgagor assigns all Condemnation Awards to which it is entitled for any Taking to Mortgagee and authorizes Mortgagee to collect and receive such Condemnation Awards and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, subject to the terms of the Note and the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any). (d) INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Mortgagor assigns to Mortgagee all proceeds of any insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Mortgaged Property, subject to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any). Subject to the prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any), Mortgagor authorizes Mortgagee to collect and receive such proceeds and authorizes and directs the issuer of each of such insurance policies to make payment for all such losses directly to Mortgagee, instead of to Mortgagor and Mortgagee jointly. (e) OBLIGATION TO RESTORE. In the event of any damage, destruction or Taking of the Mortgaged Property, whether or not insurance, condemnation or other proceeds are made available to Mortgagor (except when otherwise required by the terms and provisions of SECTION 3.12(a) above), Mortgagor shall restore and repair (or cause to be restored and repaired) the Mortgaged Property materially to its condition prior to the occurrence of the damage, destruction or Taking, and nothing in this Mortgage shall be deemed to excuse Mortgagor from restoring, repairing and maintaining the Mortgaged Property, as herein provided. 13 (f) SENIOR LOAN PREVAILS. Notwithstanding anything in this SECTION 3.12 to the contrary, if and to the extent that a Senior Loan is secured by the Mortgaged Property at the time of any loss, damage or Taking, then the compliance by Mortgagor with the casualty and/or condemnation provisions of the loan documents governing, evidencing and/or securing the Senior Loan shall be deemed to be compliance by Mortgagor with the terms and provisions hereof (notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein), and notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, the Senior Lender shall have a prior right to all insurance and/or Condemnation Award proceeds relating to the Mortgaged Property. The terms and provisions of the Senior Loan shall then govern and control in the event (but only to the extent) of any inconsistency between such Senior Loan terms and provisions and the terms and provisions of this SECTION 3.12. (g) CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. As used in this Mortgage, the term "TAKING" shall mean the transfer or threatened transfer of the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof to a governmental or quasi-governmental entity or other party with appropriate authority, by exercise of the power of eminent domain. The Taking of a "material" portion of the Mortgaged Property shall mean (i) the permanent Taking of a legally required driveway, if such driveway is the sole means of vehicular ingress and egress into and from the Mortgaged Property, (ii) any permanent Taking that results in the denial of a primary access to the Mortgaged Property, (iii) any Taking of any portion of the Mortgaged Property for which the applicable governmental entity pays or may be reasonably expected to pay a Condemnation Award to the owner of the Mortgaged Property in excess of $25,000. SECTION 3.13. OBLIGATIONS OF MORTGAGOR. Mortgagor will (a) timely perform, or cause to be timely performed, all of the Obligations; (b) maintain and preserve the lien of this Mortgage (subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances and any Senior Loan (if any) permitted pursuant to this Mortgage); and (c) forever warrant and defend its grant made herein against any and all claims and demands whatsoever. SECTION 3.14. MAINTENANCE, WASTE AND REPAIR. Mortgagor will (a) maintain the Mortgaged Property in good order and condition; (b) promptly make all necessary structural and non-structural repairs to the Mortgaged Property (PROVIDED THAT, with respect to repairs required as a result of a casualty or Taking, Mortgagee has complied with its obligations (if any) to make insurance proceeds or condemnation award proceeds, as the case may be, available for repairs pursuant to SECTION 3.12); (c) not diminish or materially alter the Improvements, nor erect any new buildings, structures or building additions on the Land, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (d) not remove or permit to be removed any of the Fixtures or Personalty from the Mortgaged Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless such items are replaced by articles of equal suitability and value owned by Mortgagor free and clear of any lien or security interest other than the Permitted Encumbrances and any Senior Loan permitted pursuant to this Mortgage; and (e) not permit any waste of the Mortgaged Property or make any change in the use thereof, nor do or permit to be done thereon anything, that may in any way impair the security of this Mortgage. SECTION 3.15. IMPOSITIONS; INSURANCE PREMIUMS; IMPOUNDS. Mortgagor will pay when due (and in any event prior to delinquency) all Impositions and insurance premiums for the insurance required by this Mortgage. Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee, within seven (7) days after demand therefor and in any event not later than ten (10) days prior to the date that 14 any such amounts become delinquent, receipts showing the payment of any Impositions and/or insurance premiums, as the case may be, required to be paid by Mortgagor hereunder. Upon an Event of Default, Mortgagor will pay monthly to Mortgagee an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the annual cost of Impositions relating to the Mortgaged Property, together with an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the next estimated annual premiums for hazard and other insurance required hereunder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if and to the extent a Senior Loan is then secured by the Mortgaged Property, and the loan documents governing, evidencing and/or securing such Senior Loan (or the Senior Lender) requires that similar impound payments in respect of Impositions and insurance premiums be made to the Senior Lender, then Mortgagor shall make such payments to the Senior Lender (and such payments to the Senior Lender shall not constitute a default under this Mortgage), and the amounts required to be paid to the Mortgagee hereunder will then equal the positive difference (if any) between (x) the amounts otherwise payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee in respect of Impositions and insurance premiums pursuant to this SECTION 3.15, MINUS (y) the amounts paid to the Senior Lender in respect of Impositions and insurance premiums. Any funds deposited by Mortgagor with Mortgagee pursuant to this SECTION 3.15 will be held by Mortgagee without interest and will be released to Mortgagor for payment of Impositions and insurance premiums, or directly applied to such costs by Mortgagee, as Mortgagee may elect, but in any event prior to the date that any such amounts become delinquent (provided the Mortgagee has received written notice of the date of delinquency of any such amounts and the amounts then due and payable). In no event shall Mortgagee have any obligation or responsibility to pay for any such Impositions or insurance premiums from Mortgagee's own funds or to otherwise fund any amounts in respect of such Impositions or insurance premiums in excess of the amounts deposited by Mortgagor with Mortgagee pursuant to the terms and provisions of this SECTION 3.15. SECTION 3.16. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Mortgagor will promptly and faithfully comply in all material respects with all present and future Laws and Restrictions. SECTION 3.17. BOOKS AND RECORDS AND OTHER INFORMATION. (a) Mortgagor, without expense to Mortgagee, will maintain full and complete books of account and records reflecting the results of the operations of the Mortgaged Property in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, and will furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee such financial information concerning the condition of Mortgagor and the Mortgaged Property as Mortgagee will reasonably request, including annual certified financial statements and an annual operating statement for the Mortgaged Property. (b) Upon Mortgagee's reasonable request, Mortgagee will have the right, at all reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, to audit the books and records of Mortgagor. If such audit discloses a variance of three percent (3%) or more in income or expenses, the cost of such audit will be paid by Mortgagor. (c) Mortgagor will furnish to Mortgagee, within seven (7) days after written request therefor, all information that Mortgagee may reasonably request concerning the Mortgaged Property or the performance by Mortgagor of the Obligations. SECTION 3.18. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Mortgagor, at any time upon the reasonable request of Mortgagee, will at Mortgagor's expense, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such additional papers and instruments (including, without limitation, a declaration of no setoff) 15 and perform all such further acts as may be reasonably necessary to perform the Obligations and, as Mortgagee deems reasonably necessary, to preserve the priority of the lien of this Mortgage (subject to the liens of the Permitted Encumbrances and any Senior Loan permitted hereunder) and to carry out the purposes of the Loan Documents. SECTION 3.19. LITIGATION. Mortgagor will promptly give notice in writing to Mortgagee of any notice received by Mortgagor regarding litigation or any other event or occurrence that might result in a Material Adverse Change. Mortgagor shall appear in and contest any such action or proceeding at Mortgagor's sole cost and expense; and shall pay all costs and expenses, including cost of evidence of title and attorneys' fees, in any such action or proceeding in which Mortgagee may appear. SECTION 3.20. INSPECTION OF MORTGAGED PROPERTY. Mortgagor hereby grants to Mortgagee, its agents, employees, consultants and contractors, the right to enter upon the Mortgaged Property upon twenty-four (24) hours prior notice to Mortgagor for the purpose of making any and all inspections, reports, tests, inquiries and reviews as Mortgagee (in its sole and absolute discretion) deems necessary or appropriate to assess the then current condition of the Mortgaged Property, or for the purpose of performing any of the other acts Mortgagee is authorized to perform hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents. Mortgagor will cooperate with Mortgagee to facilitate such entry and the accomplishment of such purposes. Mortgagor will pay on demand all costs, fees and expenses (including those of Mortgagee's legal counsel and consultants) incurred by Mortgagee with respect to such inspections, reports, tests, inquiries and reviews (a) if they were incurred after an Event of Default, or (b) if Mortgagee had knowledge or a reasonable suspicion of Hazardous Materials at, on or near the Mortgaged Property. Such amounts due from Mortgagor will accrue interest until paid at the default interest rate provided in the Note, and will be secured by this Mortgage. SECTION 3.21. CONTEST. Notwithstanding the provisions of PARAGRAPHS 3.15 and 3.16, Mortgagor may, at its expense, contest the validity or application of any Impositions or Laws and Restrictions by appropriate legal proceedings promptly initiated and diligently conducted in good faith, provided that (a) Mortgagee is reasonably satisfied that the priority of this Mortgage will be maintained and neither the Mortgaged Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, or lost as a result of such contest, and (b) Mortgagor will have posted a bond or furnished such other security as may be reasonably required from time to time by Mortgagee. SECTION 3.22. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. Mortgagor will furnish to Mortgagee, within seven (7) days after written request therefor, any and all information that Mortgagee may reasonably request concerning the Mortgaged Property or the performance by Mortgagor of the Obligations. SECTION 3.23. FIRPTA CERTIFICATE. (a) In the event of any permitted transfer by Mortgagor of its rights hereunder or of any interest in the Mortgaged Property otherwise permitted under this Mortgage, such transferee will, as an additional condition to such transfer, under penalty of perjury, execute and deliver to Mortgagee a certificate concerning the non-foreign status of Mortgagor and the proposed transferee satisfactory to Mortgagee. Nothing in this subsection will be deemed a modification or waiver of any other provision of any of the Loan Documents limiting, 16 prohibiting or otherwise relating to any transfer of any interest in the Mortgaged Property or in Mortgagor. SECTION 3.24. RESTRICTIVE USES. Mortgagor will not initiate, join in, or consent to any change in the current use of the Mortgaged Property or in any zoning ordinance, private restrictive covenant, assessment proceedings or other public or private restriction limiting or restricting the uses that may be made of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or in any way change the boundaries of the Mortgaged Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, which may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of the Mortgagee. SECTION 3.25. TRANSFERS BY MORTGAGOR. In no event shall Mortgagor be permitted to sell, convey, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer (excluding, however, any mortgage, pledge, hypothecation or transfer occurring in connection with a Senior Loan permitted under this Mortgage) the Mortgaged Property (or any part or parcel thereof), whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee, which consent may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of Mortgagee. In order to induce Mortgagee to make the loan secured hereby, Mortgagor agrees that, in the event of any "TRANSFER" without the prior written consent of Mortgagee (which may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of Mortgagee), Mortgagee will have the absolute right at its option, without prior demand or notice, to declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable. Consent to one such transaction will not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require consent to future or successive transactions. Mortgagee may grant or deny such consent in its sole discretion and, if consent should be given, any such transfer will be subject to this Mortgage, and any such transferee will assume all obligations hereunder and agree to be bound by all provisions contained herein. Such assumption will not, however, release Mortgagor or any maker or guarantor of the Note from any liability thereunder without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. As used herein, a "TRANSFER" includes (i) the sale, transfer, conveyance, pledge, collateral assignment or hypothecation of the Mortgaged Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, excepting only any mortgage, pledge, hypothecation or transfer occurring in connection with a Senior Loan permitted under this Mortgage, (ii) the execution of any installment land sale contract or similar instrument affecting all or a portion of the Mortgaged Property, or (iii) the lease of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property (except as expressly permitted in SECTION 3.26 below). The term "TRANSFER" will also include (A) any merger, consolidation or dissolution of Mortgagor, any member in Mortgagor, or any entity that controls Mortgagor, and (B) the direct or indirect transfer, assignment, hypothecation or conveyance of legal or beneficial ownership of Mortgagor, any member of Mortgagor or any direct or indirect constituent of Mortgagor which would result in a change of Control of Mortgagor. For the purposes of this Note, the term "CONTROL" shall mean the power to direct or cause the direction of the management, policies or business decisions of the person, association or entity in question, whether by contract, through the ownership of voting securities or otherwise. SECTION 3.26. LEASES. (a) Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this SECTION 3.26 below, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee (which may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of Mortgagee), Mortgagor will not (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement any Lease, (b) extend or renew any Lease, (c) cancel, terminate or accept the surrender of any Lease, (d) 17 enter into any new Lease for space in any portion of the Mortgaged Property, or (e) accept any prepayment of rent more than one month in advance, any termination fee or any similar payment under any Lease or from any tenant. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, except as otherwise permitted in this SECTION 3.26 below, Mortgagor will not (1) waive, excuse, condone, discount, set off, compromise, or in any manner release or discharge tenants under any Leases from any obligations, covenants, conditions and agreements by such tenants to be kept, or account or consent to any surrender of the Leases; (2) assign the Leases or Rents or pledge, transfer, mortgage or otherwise encumber or assign future payments of Rents; (3) commence an action of ejectment or summary proceedings for dispossession of the tenants under any Leases; (4) consent to a change in the permitted use of the premises; or (5) consent to any subletting of a Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or to assignment of the Leases by lessees thereunder or to any assignment or further subletting by any sublessees. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in SUBSECTION 3.26(a) above, Mortgagor may amend, modify, alter or supplement any Lease without the prior written consent of Mortgagee; PROVIDED THAT, (a) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default then exists, (b) the amendment, modification, alteration or supplement does not materially increase the duties, obligations or responsibilities of the "landlord" under the Lease, and (c) the amendment, modification, alteration or supplement does not decrease the amount of rent or decelerate or accelerate the payment of rent under the Lease. (c) The consent of Mortgagee to the execution, renewal, extension, amendment, modification, alteration, supplement, cancellation or termination of a Lease will be granted or denied within five (5) business days after Mortgagee receives a SECOND written request for such consent (which second written request will be given not less than ten (10) business days after the first such request) stating that it is a second notice and specifying the provision of this Mortgage pursuant to which it is given. If Mortgagee fails to grant or deny such consent within the above-specified time period, such new Lease, Lease renewal or extension, or Lease amendment, modification, alteration, supplement, cancellation or termination will be deemed to have been approved by Mortgagee. Mortgagor will pay, on demand, Mortgagee's reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in connection with any review of a proposed new Lease or Lease renewal or extension or Lease amendment, modification, alteration, supplement, cancellation or termination, whether or not such consent is granted and whether or not the conditions described in the proviso of the foregoing sentence are satisfied. SECTION 3.27. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS OBLIGATIONS. (a) Mortgagor shall comply with, and shall use its best efforts to cause each occupant of the Mortgaged Property to comply with, any and all Hazardous Materials Laws regarding the presence or removal of Hazardous Materials on or in the Mortgaged Property, shall pay immediately, when due, the costs of removal from the Mortgaged Property and disposal of any Hazardous Materials that are required to be removed pursuant to any Hazardous Materials Laws and shall keep the Mortgaged Property free of any lien that may arise pursuant to any such Hazardous Materials Laws. Mortgagor shall not, and shall not permit any person or entity (including any tenant or other occupant of the Mortgaged Property) to, release, discharge, or dispose of any Hazardous Materials on or in the Mortgaged Property except in compliance with all Hazardous Materials Laws and, if the same shall exist, Mortgagor shall immediately remove or cause to be removed from the Mortgaged Property such Hazardous Materials to the extent required to be removed pursuant to any Hazardous Materials Laws. 18 (b) Mortgagor hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend (by counsel of Mortgagee's choice) Mortgagee, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, demands, liabilities, fines, penalties, assessments, charges, administrative and judicial proceedings and orders, judgments, remedial action requirements, enforcement actions of any kind, and all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith (including, but not limited to, attorneys' and consultants' fees and expenses), arising directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, out of (i) the presence on or under the Mortgaged Property (including, but not limited to, the surrounding streets and sidewalks) of any Hazardous Materials, or any Release (as defined below) of any Hazardous Materials, on, under or from the Mortgaged Property, or (ii) any activity carried on or undertaken on or off the Mortgaged Property, and whether by Mortgagor or any employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors of Mortgagor or any third persons occupying or present on the Mortgaged Property, in connection with the use, holding, handling, treatment, removal, storage, decontamination, cleanup, transport, Release, generation, processing or abatement of any Hazardous Materials located or present in, on or under the Mortgaged Property (including, but not limited to, the surrounding streets and sidewalks). The foregoing indemnity shall further apply to any residual contamination in, on or under the Mortgaged Property (including, but not limited to, the surrounding streets and sidewalks), or affecting any natural resources, and to any contamination of any property or natural resources arising in connection with the generation, use, holding, handling, treatment, removal, decontamination, cleanup, storage, transport, disposal, Release, processing or abatement of any such Hazardous Materials, and irrespective of whether any of such activities are undertaken in accordance with applicable Hazardous Materials Laws. Mortgagor hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage to the contrary, the obligations of Mortgagor under this SECTION 3.27 shall be unlimited personal obligations of Mortgagor, shall not be secured by this Mortgage and shall survive any foreclosure under this Mortgage, any transfer in lieu thereof, and the payment and satisfaction in full of the Indebtedness and/or Obligations. As used herein, the term "RELEASE" means any release, spill, emission, leaking, pumping, pouring, injection, escaping, deposit, disposal, dispersal, dumping, leaching or migration of Hazardous Materials into the indoor or outdoor environment (including, without limitation, the abandonment or disposal of any barrels, containers or other closed receptacles containing any Hazardous Materials), or into or out of any of the Mortgaged Property, including the movement of any Hazardous Materials through the air, soil, surface, water, groundwater or property. ARTICLE 4 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED] ARTICLE 5 DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE SECTION 5.1. REMEDIES. If an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may, at Mortgagee's election, exercise any or all of the following rights, remedies and recourses: (a) ACCELERATION. Declare the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever (each of which hereby is expressly waived by Mortgagor), whereupon the same will become immediately due and payable. 19 (b) ENTRY ON MORTGAGED PROPERTY. Enter the Mortgaged Property and take exclusive possession thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto or located thereon. If Mortgagor remains in possession of the Mortgaged Property after an Event of Default and without Mortgagee's prior written consent, Mortgagee may invoke any legal remedies to dispossess Mortgagor. (c) OPERATION OF MORTGAGED PROPERTY. Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Mortgaged Property upon such terms and conditions as Mortgagee may deem reasonable under the circumstances (making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to time, as Mortgagee deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and other amounts collected by Mortgagee in connection therewith in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 5.7. (d) FORECLOSURE AND SALE. Institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage, either by judicial action or by power of sale, in which case the Mortgaged Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels. With respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Mortgagor agrees that five (5) days' prior written notice will be deemed commercially reasonable. At any such sale by virtue of any judicial proceedings, power of sale, or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the title to and right of possession of any such property will pass to the purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor will be completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the property sold and such sale will be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor, and against all other Persons claiming or to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Mortgagor. Mortgagee may be a purchaser at such sale and if Mortgagee is the highest bidder, Mortgagee may credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to Mortgagee against the Indebtedness in lieu of paying cash. In the event this Mortgage is foreclosed by judicial action, appraisement of the Mortgaged Property is waived. (e) RECEIVER. Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Mortgagor or regard to the adequacy of the Mortgaged Property for the repayment of the Indebtedness, the appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged Property, and Mortgagor irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver will have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Mortgaged Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court, and will apply such Rents in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 5.7. (f) OTHER. Exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity. SECTION 5.2. SEPARATE SALES. The Mortgaged Property may be sold in one or more parcels and in such manner and order as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may elect; the right of sale arising out of any Event of Default will not be exhausted by any one or more sales. SECTION 5.3. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE, CONCURRENT AND NONEXCLUSIVE. Mortgagee will have all rights, remedies and recourses granted in the Loan Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a) will be cumulated and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Mortgagor or 20 others obligated under the Loan Documents, or against the Mortgaged Property, or against any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor will arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them will not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and will be, nonexclusive. No action by Mortgagee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity will be deemed to cure any Event of Default. SECTION 5.4. RELEASE OF AND RESORT TO COLLATERAL. Mortgagee may release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Mortgaged Property, any part of the Mortgaged Property without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the lien or security interest created in or evidenced by the Loan Documents or their status as a lien and security interest in and to the Mortgaged Property subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances and any Senior Loan permitted pursuant to this Mortgage. For payment of the Indebtedness, Mortgagee may resort to any other security in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect. SECTION 5.5. WAIVER OF REDEMPTION, NOTICE AND MARSHALLING OF ASSETS. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Mortgaged Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of any Event of Default or of Mortgagee's election to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for under the Loan Documents, and (c) any right to a marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation. SECTION 5.6. DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS. If Mortgagee will have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan Documents and will thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Mortgagee will have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event, Mortgagor and Mortgagee will be restored to their former positions with respect to the Indebtedness, the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Mortgaged Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Mortgagee will continue as if the right, remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment will waive any Event of Default that may then exist or the right of Mortgagee thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the Loan Documents for such Event of Default. SECTION 5.7. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of any sale of, and the Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management, operation or other use of the Mortgaged Property, will be applied by Mortgagee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order unless otherwise required by applicable law or by a Senior Lender (if any) permitted pursuant to this Mortgage: (a) to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Mortgaged Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the same, including, without limitation, (1) Receiver's fees and expenses, including the repayment of the amounts evidenced by any Receiver's certificates, (2) court costs, (3) attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses, and (4) costs of advertisement; 21 (b) to the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations in such manner and order of preference as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may determine; and (c) the balance, if any, to the payment of the Persons legally entitled thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms and provisions of this SECTION 5.7 shall be subject to any prior rights of the Senior Lender (if any). SECTION 5.8. OCCUPANCY AFTER FORECLOSURE. Any sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof in accordance with SECTION 5.1(d) will divest all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to the property sold. Subject to applicable law, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale will receive immediate possession of the property purchased. If Mortgagor retains possession of such property or any part thereof subsequent to such sale, Mortgagor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and will, if Mortgagor remains in possession after demand to remove, be subject to eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with or without process of law. SECTION 5.9. ADDITIONAL ADVANCES AND DISBURSEMENTS; COSTS OF ENFORCEMENT. (a) If any Event of Default exists, Mortgagee will have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by Mortgagee under this SECTION 5.9, or otherwise under this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, will bear interest from the date that such sum is advanced or expense incurred, to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the rate or rates at which default interest is then computed on the Indebtedness pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Note, and all such sums, together with such default interest thereon, will be secured by this Mortgage. (b) Mortgagor will pay all expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of or incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Indebtedness or any claim under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and for the curing thereof, or for defending or asserting the rights and claims of Mortgagee in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise. SECTION 5.10. NO MORTGAGEE IN POSSESSION. Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this ARTICLE 5, the assignment of the Rents and Leases under ARTICLE 6, the security interests under ARTICLE 7, nor any other remedies afforded to Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity will cause Mortgagee to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Mortgagee to lease the Mortgaged Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever otherwise. ARTICLE 6 ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES SECTION 6.1. ASSIGNMENT. In furtherance of and in addition to the assignment made by Mortgagor in SECTION 2.1 of this Mortgage, subject to the prior rights of any Senior 22 Loan permitted pursuant to this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, sells, transfers and conveys to Mortgagee all of its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, whether now existing or hereafter entered into, and all of its right, title and interest in and to all Rents. This assignment is an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. So long as no Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagor will have a revocable license from Mortgagee to exercise all rights extended to the landlord under the Leases, including the right to receive and collect all Rents and to hold the Rents in trust for use in the payment and performance of the Indebtedness and Obligations and to otherwise use the same. The foregoing license is granted subject to the conditional limitation that no Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not legal proceedings have commenced, and without regard to waste, adequacy of security for the Obligations or solvency of Mortgagor, the license herein granted will automatically expire and terminate, without notice by Mortgagee (any such notice being hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor). SECTION 6.2. PERFECTION UPON RECORDATION. Mortgagor acknowledges that Mortgagee has taken all actions necessary to obtain, and that upon recordation of this Mortgage Mortgagee will have, to the extent permitted under applicable law, a valid and fully perfected, present assignment of the Rents arising out of the Leases and all security for such Leases, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances and any Senior Loan permitted pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Mortgage. Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that upon recordation of this Mortgage Mortgagee's interest in the Rents will be deemed to be fully perfected, "choate" and enforced as to Mortgagor and all third parties, including, without limitation, any subsequently appointed trustee in any case under Title 11 of the United States Code (the "BANKRUPTCY CODE"), without the necessity of commencing a foreclosure action with respect to this Mortgage, making formal demand for the Rents, obtaining the appointment of a receiver or taking any other affirmative action. SECTION 6.3. BANKRUPTCY PROVISIONS. Without limitation of the absolute nature of the assignment of the Rents hereunder, Mortgagor and Mortgagee agree that (a) this Mortgage will constitute a "security agreement" for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) the security interest created by this Mortgage extends to property of Mortgagor acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy and to all amounts paid as Rents and (c) such security interest will extend to all Rents acquired by the estate after the commencement of any case in bankruptcy. SECTION 6.4. NO MERGER OF ESTATES. So long as part of the Indebtedness and the Obligations secured hereby remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Mortgaged Property (if any) will not merge, but will remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates either in Mortgagor, Mortgagee, any tenant or any third party by purchase or otherwise. ARTICLE 7 SECURITY AGREEMENT SECTION 7.1. SECURITY INTEREST. This Mortgage constitutes a "security agreement" on personal property within the meaning of the UCC and other applicable law and with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds and Condemnation Awards, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances 23 and any Senior Loan permitted pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Mortgage. To this end, Mortgagor grants to Mortgagee a security interest in the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Condemnation Awards and all other Mortgaged Property which is personal property (subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and any Senior Loan permitted under this Mortgage) to secure the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations, and agrees that Mortgagee will have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC with respect to such property. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Mortgagee with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds and Condemnation Awards sent to Mortgagor at least five (5) days before any action under the UCC will constitute reasonable notice to Mortgagor. SECTION 7.2. FINANCING STATEMENTS. Mortgagor will execute and deliver to Mortgagee, in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, such financing statements and such further assurances as Mortgagee may, from time to time, reasonably consider necessary to create, perfect and preserve Mortgagee's security interest hereunder and Mortgagee may cause such statements and assurances to be recorded and filed, at such times and places as may be required or permitted by law to so create, perfect and preserve such security interest. Mortgagor's chief executive office is in the State of South Carolina at the address set forth in the first paragraph of this Mortgage. SECTION 7.3. FIXTURE FILING. This Mortgage will also constitute a "fixture filing" for the purposes of the UCC against all of the Mortgaged Property, which is or is to become fixtures. Information concerning the security interest herein granted may be obtained at the addresses of Debtor (Mortgagor) and Secured Party (Mortgagee) as set forth in the first paragraph of this Mortgage.

As used herein, "Mortgagor" will refer to the party named in the first paragraph of this Mortgage and to any subsequent owner of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property. All Persons who may have or acquire an interest in the Mortgaged Property will be deemed to have notice of, and be bound by, the terms of the Note and the other Loan Documents; however, no such party will be entitled to any rights thereunder without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. SECTION 9.3. ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee and its successors and assigns, as its attorney-in-fact, which agency is coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution, (a) to execute and/or record any notices of 24 completion, cessation of labor or any other notices that Mortgagee deems appropriate to protect Mortgagee's interest, if Mortgagor will fail to do so within ten (10) days after written request by Mortgagee, (b) upon the issuance of a deed pursuant to the foreclosure of this Mortgage or the delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, to execute all instruments of assignment, conveyance or further assurance with respect to the Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds and Condemnation Awards in favor of the grantee of any such deed and as may be necessary or desirable for such purpose, (c) to prepare, execute and file or record financing statements, continuation statements, applications for registration and like papers necessary to create, perfect or preserve Mortgagee's security interests and rights in or to any of the Mortgaged Property, and (d) while any Event of Default exists, to perform any obligation of Mortgagor hereunder, however: (1) Mortgagee will not under any circumstances be obligated to perform any obligation of Mortgagor; (2) any sums advanced by Mortgagee in such performance will be added to and included in the Indebtedness and will bear interest at the default rate or rates at which default interest is then computed on the Indebtedness pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Note; (3) Mortgagee as such attorney-in-fact will only be accountable for such funds as are actually received by Mortgagee; and (4) Mortgagee will not be liable to Mortgagor or any other person or entity for any failure to take any action which it is empowered to take under this SECTION 9.3. SECTION 9.4. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Mortgage will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Mortgagee and Mortgagor and their respective successors and assigns. Mortgagor will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, assign any rights, duties or obligations hereunder. SECTION 9.5. NO WAIVER. Any failure by Mortgagee to insist upon strict performance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Loan Documents will not be deemed to be a waiver of same, and Mortgagee will have the right at any time to insist upon strict performance of all of such terms, provisions and conditions. SECTION 9.6. NOTE. If any conflict or inconsistency exists between this Mortgage and the Note, the Note will govern. SECTION 9.7. RELEASE OR RECONVEYANCE. Upon payment in full of the Indebtedness and performance in full of the Obligations, Mortgagee, at Mortgagor's expense, will release the liens and security interests created by this Mortgage or reconvey the Mortgaged Property to Mortgagor. SECTION 9.8. WAIVER OF STAY, MORATORIUM AND SIMILAR RIGHTS. Mortgagor agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time insist upon or plead or in any way take advantage of any stay, marshalling of assets, extension, redemption or moratorium law now or hereafter in force and effect so as to prevent or hinder the enforcement of the provisions of this Mortgage or the Indebtedness or Obligations secured hereby, or any agreement between Mortgagor and Mortgagee or any rights or remedies of Mortgagee. SECTION 9.9. APPLICABLE LAW. The provisions of this Mortgage regarding the creation, perfection and enforcement of the liens and security interests herein granted will be governed by and construed under the laws of the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located. All other provisions of this Mortgage will be governed by the laws of the State of South Carolina, without regard to conflicts of laws principles. 25 SECTION 9.10. HEADINGS.

SECTION 9.11. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Mortgage and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Mortgagee and Mortgagor and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Loan Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. SECTION 9.12. SEVERABILITY. If any provision in or obligation under this Mortgage shall be determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. SECTION 9.13. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST MORTGAGOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS MORTGAGE MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE WHERE THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY IS LOCATED, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS MORTGAGE MORTGAGOR ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE.

Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Mortgagee to bring proceedings against Mortgagor in the courts of any other jurisdiction. SECTION 9.14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TRUSTOR HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS MORTGAGE. The scope of this waiver is intended to be all-encompassing of any and all disputes that may be filed in any court and that relate to the subject matter of this Mortgage, including, without limitation, contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims, and all other common law and statutory claims. Mortgagor acknowledges that this waiver is a material inducement for Mortgagee to enter into a business relationship with Mortgagor, that Mortgagee has relied on this waiver in entering into this Mortgage and that Mortgagee will continue to rely on this waiver in the parties' related future dealings. Mortgagor further warrants and represents that Mortgagor has reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel, and that it knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights following consultation with legal counsel. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS 26 OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS MORTGAGE. In the event of litigation, this Mortgage may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court. SECTION 9.15. SUBORDINATION. At the option of Mortgagee, this Mortgage will become subject and subordinate in whole or in part (but not with respect to priority of entitlement to any insurance proceeds, damages, awards, or compensation resulting from damage to the Mortgaged Property or condemnation or exercise of power of eminent domain), to any and all contracts of sale and/or any and all Leases upon the execution by Mortgagee and recording thereof in the official records of the county where the Land is located of a unilateral declaration to that effect. Mortgagee may require the issuance of such title insurance endorsements to the title policy in connection with any such subordination as Mortgagee, in its reasonable judgment, will determine are appropriate, and Mortgagor will pay any cost or expense incurred in connection with the issuance thereof. SECTION 9.16. SUITS TO PROTECT MORTGAGED PROPERTY. Mortgagor will appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the security of the Mortgage, or of any additional or other security for the Obligations, or the interest of Mortgagee; and will pay all costs and expenses, including cost of evidence of title and reasonable attorneys' fees (including, without limitation, court costs, expert witness fees, document reproduction expenses, costs of exhibit preparation, courier charges, postage and communication expenses), in any action or proceeding in which Mortgagee may appear or be made a party, including foreclosure or other proceeding commenced by those claiming a right to any part of the Mortgaged Property in any action to partition or Taking of all or part of the Mortgaged Property, whether or not pursued to final judgment, and in any exercise of the power of sale contained herein, whether or not the sale is actually consummated. In any such action or proceeding in which Mortgagee is made a party, Mortgagee may at its option defend such action, and all costs of such defense, including all court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees (including, without limitation, court costs, expert witness fees, document reproduction expenses, costs of exhibit preparation, courier charges, postage and communication expenses), will be borne and paid by Mortgagor.

(b) Whenever, under any Loan Document, Mortgagor is obligated to indemnify and/or defend Mortgagee, or Mortgagor is obligated to defend or prosecute any action or proceeding, then Mortgagee will have the right to participate in such prosecution or defense using counsel of Mortgagee's choice, and all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with such participation (including reasonable attorneys' fees (including, without limitation, court costs, expert witness fees, document reproduction expenses, costs of exhibit 27 preparation, courier charges, postage and communication expenses)) will be reimbursed by Mortgagor to Mortgagee.

Mortgagor will give notice to Mortgagee of the initiation of all proceedings prosecuted or required to be defended by Mortgagor, or which are subject to Mortgagor's indemnity obligations, under this Mortgage, promptly after the receipt by Mortgagor of notice of the existence of any such proceeding, but in no event later than five (5) days thereafter. (c) Should Mortgagee incur any liability, loss, claim, damage, cost or expense required to be reimbursed by Mortgagor to Mortgagee hereunder, the amount thereof with interest thereon at the default interest rate provided under the Note will constitute part of the Indebtedness, will be payable by Mortgagor upon demand and will be secured by this Mortgage.

In addition, Borrower will submit to Lender, promptly upon receipt or preparation, copies of any and all reports, studies, analyses, correspondence, governmental comments or approvals, proposed removal or other Remedial Work contracts and similar information prepared or received by Borrower in connection with any Remedial Work or Hazardous Materials relating to any Golf Course Parcel.

Lender will have the right, but not the obligation, to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any legal proceedings or actions initiated in connection with any Hazardous Materials Claims. 5. INDEMNITY. Borrower will protect, indemnify and hold Lender, its directors, officers, employees and agents, and any successors to Lender's interest in any Golf Course Parcel, and any other Person who acquires any portion of a Golf Course Parcel at a foreclosure sale or otherwise through the exercise of Lender's rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, and any successors to any such other Person, and all directors, officers, employees and agents of all of the aforementioned indemnified parties, harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, fines, penalties, judgments, awards, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs (including, without limitation, court costs, expert witness fees, document reproduction expenses, costs of exhibit preparation, courier charges, postage and communication expenses) and expenses of investigation) that arise out of or relate in any way to any Hazardous Materials Claims or any use, handling, production, transportation, disposal, release or storage of any Hazardous Materials in, under or on any Golf Course Parcel whether by Borrower or by any Tenant or any other Person, including, without limitation, (a) all foreseeable and all unforeseeable consequential damages directly or indirectly arising out of (i) Hazardous Materials Claims or the use, generation, storage, discharge or disposal of Hazardous Materials by Borrower, any prior owner or operator of any Golf Course Parcel or any Person on or about any Golf Course Parcel; (ii) any residual contamination affecting any natural resource or the environment; (iii) any exercise by Lender of any of its rights and remedies hereunder; and/or (iv) Lender's reliance on any representation or warranty made herein or in any certificate delivered after the date hereof pursuant to SECTION 3(f) of this Agreement, if such representation or warranty proves to be materially false or misleading; and (b) the costs of any required or necessary repair, cleanup, or detoxification of any Golf Course Parcel and the preparation of any closure or other required plans; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Borrower will not be obligated to indemnify Lender under SECTION 5(b) above in the event and to the extent that the Borrower can conclusively prove that (X) the contamination of the applicable Golf Course Parcel(s) was caused solely by actions, conditions, or events that occurred after the date that Lender(s) (or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale) actually acquired title to such Golf Course Parcel, and (Y) the contamination of the Golf Course Parcel was not caused by the direct or indirect acts or omissions of Borrower, any partner(s) of Borrower, any member(s) of Borrower, or any agent of Borrower. All such costs, damages, claims and expenses heretofore described and/or referred to in this SECTION 5 are hereinafter referred to as "EXPENSES." Borrower's liability to the aforementioned indemnified parties will arise upon the earlier to occur of (x) discovery of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about any Golf Course Parcel, and (y) the institution of any Hazardous Materials Claims, and not upon the realization of loss or damage, and Borrower will pay to Lender from time to time, immediately upon such Lender's request, an amount equal to such Expenses, as reasonably determined by such Lender. In addition, in the event any Hazardous Material is caused to be removed from any Golf Course Parcel by Borrower, Lender or any other Person, the number assigned by the Environmental Protection Agency to such Hazardous Material or any similar identification will be solely in the 6 name of Borrower and Borrower will assume any and all liability for such removed Hazardous Material. 6. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. In addition to any other rights or remedies Lender may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity, if Borrower will fail to timely comply with any of the provisions hereof, or if any representation or warranty made herein or in any certificate delivered after the date hereof pursuant to SECTION 3(f) of this Agreement proves to be false or misleading, then, in such event Lender may, after (a) delivering written notice to Borrower, which notice specifically states that Borrower has failed to comply with the provisions of this Agreement; and (b) the expiration of the earlier to occur of the thirty (30) day period after receipt of such notice or the cure period, if any, permitted under the applicable law, rule, regulation or order with which Borrower will have failed to comply, (i) declare an Event of Default under the Loan Documents and exercise any and all remedies provided for therein, herein, at law and/or in equity, and/or (ii) do or cause to be done whatever is necessary to cause the Property (and each and every Golf Course Parcel that comprises a portion of the Property) to comply with all Hazardous Materials Laws and other applicable laws, rules, regulations and/or orders and the cost thereof will constitute an Expense hereunder and will become immediately due and payable without notice and with interest thereon at the default interest rate payable under the Note until paid. Borrower will give to Lender and its agents and employees access to each Golf Course Parcel for the purpose of effecting such compliance and hereby specifically grants to Lender a license, effective upon expiration of the applicable cure period, if any, to do whatever is necessary to cause each and every Golf Course Parcel to so comply, including, without limitation, to enter each such Golf Course Parcel and remove therefrom any Hazardous Materials. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender will have the right to appoint a receiver to enforce this right to enter and inspect the Golf Course Parcels to the extent such authority is provided under the laws applicable to each such Golf Course Parcel in the jurisdiction where such Golf Course Parcel is located. 7. UNSECURED RECOURSE OBLIGATIONS. The obligations set forth herein, including, without limitation, Borrower's obligation to pay Expenses hereunder (collectively, the "ENVIRONMENTAL OBLIGATIONS"), are in addition to, and separate and distinct from, Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents, and are not secured by the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any term or provision contained herein or in the Loan Documents, Borrower will be fully and personally liable for the Environmental Obligations hereunder, and such liability will not be limited to the original principal amount of the Loan. The Environmental Obligations will not include the obligation to reimburse Lender for diminution in value of any Golf Course Parcel resulting from the presence of Hazardous Materials on such Golf Course Parcel before the date that Borrower is divested of title to such Golf Course Parcel or any portion thereof by foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing in this sentence will impair or limit Lender's right to obtain a judgment in accordance with applicable law for any deficiency in recovery of all obligations that are secured by the Mortgage, including, without limitation, the Note. Borrower's willful failure to perform any of the Environmental Obligations will constitute bad faith waste with respect to the affected Golf Course Parcel(s). The Environmental Obligations will survive the repayment of the Indebtedness (as defined in the Mortgage) and any foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar proceedings by or through which Lender or any of its successors or assigns or any other 7 person bidding at a foreclosure sale may obtain title to any or all of the Golf Course Parcels (or any portion thereof). 8. WAIVER. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom will in any event be effective unless the same will be in writing and signed by Lender, and then such waiver or consent will be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on Borrower will in any case entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 9. EXERCISE OF REMEDIES. No failure on the part of Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, at law or in equity, will operate as a waiver thereof; nor will Lender be estopped to exercise any such right or remedy at any future time because of any such failure or delay; nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise of such right or remedy or the exercise of any other right or remedy. 10. ASSIGNMENT. Lender may assign its interest under this Agreement to any one or more successor(s) to such Lender's interest in any Golf Course Parcel or the Loan Documents. This Agreement may not be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, by Borrower and any purported assignment by Borrower of this Agreement will be void and of no force or effect. 11. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered will be deemed to be an original and all of such counterparts taken together will constitute but one and the same instrument. 12. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of South Carolina. 13. MODIFICATIONS. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by an instrument in writing that by its express terms refers to this Agreement and that is duly executed by the party sought to be bound thereby. 14. ATTORNEYS' FEES. If any party to this Agreement commences litigation for the interpretation, enforcement, termination, cancellation or rescission of this Agreement, or for damages for the breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action will be entitled to its reasonable attorneys' fees and court and other costs incurred (including, without limitation, court costs, expert witness fees, document reproduction expenses, costs of exhibit preparation, courier charges, postage and communication expenses), to be paid by the losing party as fixed by the court or in a separate action brought for that purpose. 15. INTERPRETATION. This Agreement has been negotiated by parties knowledgeable in the matters contained in this Agreement, with the advice of counsel, is to be construed and interpreted in absolute parity, and will not be construed or interpreted against any party by reason 8 of such party's preparation of the initial or any subsequent draft of the Loan Documents or this Agreement. 16. SEVERABILITY. If any term or provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, all other terms and provisions in this Agreement will nevertheless remain effective and will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 17. OTHER LAWS. Nothing in this Agreement, and no exercise by Lender of its rights or remedies under this Agreement, will impair, constitute a waiver of, or in any way affect such Lender's rights and remedies with respect to Borrower under any Hazardous Materials Laws, including without limitation, contribution provisions or private right of action provisions under such Hazardous Materials Laws. 18. NOTICES. All notices, demands or requests provided for or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement will be given in accordance with the notice provisions contained in the Note.

BORROWER: __________________________________, a ________________________ By: ----------------------------------- Name: Larry D. Young Title: ------------------------------------- EXHIBIT M FORM OF GUARANTY [ATTACHED] Exhibit M-1 GUARANTY This GUARANTY is entered into as of ______________, 2001 by LARRY D. YOUNG, an individual residing in the State of South Carolina ("GUARANTOR"), in favor of and for the benefit of GOLF TRUST OF AMERICA, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("BENEFICIARY") and the holder of the Secured Promissory Note (the "NOTE") made the even date herewith by __________________ ("DEBTOR"). RECITALS A. Beneficiary and Golf Holding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("LEGENDS"), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of February ___, 2001 (the "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), pursuant to which Seller has agreed to sell to Buyer, and Buyer has agreed to purchase from Seller, certain golf courses more particularly described therein (collectively, the "PARCELS"). Beneficiary has agreed to provide purchase money financing to Legends to consummate the acquisition of the Parcels by Legends or its Affiliate(s), as contemplated in the Purchase Agreement. The Note is secured by those certain Mortgages, Security Agreements, Assignments of Rents and Leases and Fixture Filings and Deeds of Trust, Security Agreements, Assignments of Rents and Leases and Fixture Filings, each dated as of even date herewith, between Debtor and Beneficiary (each sometimes hereinafter referred to individually as, a "MORTGAGE", and collectively as, the "MORTGAGES"). The Note, the Mortgages, this Guaranty and all other instruments and documents governing, evidencing and/or securing the loan evidenced by the Note will be referred to herein collectively as the "LOAN DOCUMENTS". Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings given to them in the Note, the Mortgages or the Purchase Agreement, as applicable. B. Guarantor owns a majority of the equity interests of (and controls) Legends, which owns all of the equity interests of (and controls) Debtor. Guarantor will benefit from the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Loan Documents (collectively, the "BASIC DOCUMENTS"). C. It is a condition precedent to Beneficiary entering into the Loan Documents and making the purchase money loan to Debtor described herein that the obligations of the Debtor under the Note and the other Loan Documents (other than this Guaranty) be guarantied by Guarantor. D. Guarantor is willing irrevocably and unconditionally to guaranty such obligations of Debtor. NOW, THEREFORE, based upon the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce Beneficiary to make the purchase money loan, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS 1.1 CERTAIN DEFINED TERMS. As used in this Guaranty, the following terms will have the following meanings unless the context otherwise requires: "GUARANTIED OBLIGATIONS" is defined in SUBSECTION 2.1. "GUARANTY" means this Guaranty, as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time. "PAYMENT IN FULL," "PAID IN FULL" or any similar term means payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations, including, without limitation, all principal, interest, costs, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses) of Beneficiary as required under the Loan Documents. 1.2 INTERPRETATION. References to "Sections" and "subsections" will be to Sections and subsections, respectively, of this Guaranty unless otherwise specifically provided. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Guaranty and the terms, conditions and provisions of any of the Basic Documents, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Guaranty will prevail. SECTION 2. THE GUARANTY 2.1 GUARANTY OF THE GUARANTIED OBLIGATIONS. Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the due and punctual payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations when the same will become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 362(a)). The term "GUARANTIED OBLIGATIONS" is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes: (a) any and all obligations of Debtor now or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, whether due or not due, and however arising under or in connection with the Loan Documents including, without limitation, interest which, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to Debtor, would have accrued on any Guarantied Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Debtor for such interest in the related bankruptcy proceeding; and (b) those expenses set forth in SUBSECTION 2.7 hereof. 2.2 PAYMENT BY GUARANTOR; APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Guarantor hereby agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Debtor to pay any of the Guarantied Obligations when and as the same will become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 362(a)), Guarantor will upon demand pay, or cause to bE paid, in cash, to Beneficiary, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guarantied Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest, fees and charges on such Guarantied Obligations (including, without limitation, interest that, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to Debtor, would have accrued on such Guarantied Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Debtor for such interest in the related bankruptcy proceeding) and all other Guarantied Obligations then owed to Beneficiary as aforesaid. 2.3 LIABILITY OF GUARANTOR ABSOLUTE. Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and will not be affected by any circumstance that constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, Guarantor agrees as follows: (a) This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectibility. (b) Beneficiary may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents. (c) The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Debtor under the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Debtor or any other guarantors and whether or not Debtor is joined in any such action or actions. (d) Payment by Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guarantied Obligations will in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge Guarantor's liability for any portion of the Guarantied Obligations that has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Beneficiary is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce Guarantor's covenant to pay a portion of the Guarantied Obligations, such judgment will not be deemed to release Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guarantied Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment will not, except to the extent satisfied by Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge Guarantor's liability hereunder in respect of the Guarantied Obligations.

(f) This Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder will be valid and enforceable and will not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations), including, without limitation, the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not Guarantor will have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce, or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Loan Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guarantied Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including without limitation provisions relating to events of default) of any of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guarantied Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Loan Documents or from the proceeds of any security for the Guarantied Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for Indebtedness other than the Guarantied Obligations) to the payment of Indebtedness other than the Guarantied Obligations, even though Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guarantied Obligations; (v) Beneficiary's consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Debtor or any of its affiliates and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guarantied Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guarantied Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims that Debtor may allege or assert against Beneficiary in respect of the Guarantied Obligations, including but not limited to failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guarantied Obligations. 2.4 WAIVERS BY GUARANTOR. Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiary: (a) any right to require Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Debtor, any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations or any other Person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Debtor, any such other guarantor or any other Person; (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of Beneficiary in favor of Debtor or any other Person; or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Debtor including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Debtor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law that provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon Beneficiary's errors or omissions in the administration of the Guarantied Obligations, except behavior that amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, that are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty and any legal or equitable discharge of Guarantor's obligations hereunder; (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof; (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims; and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance of this Guaranty, notices of default under any Loan Document, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Debtor and notices of any of the matters referred to in SUBSECTION 2.3 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law that limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or that may conflict with the terms of this Guaranty. [INSERT OTHER SOUTH CAROLINA WAIVERS, AS DETERMINED BY LOCAL COUNSEL] 2.5 GUARANTOR'S RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION, CONTRIBUTION, ETC. Until the Guarantied Obligations will have been paid in full, Guarantor will withhold exercise of (a) any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Debtor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Debtor, (ii) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Debtor, and (iii) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary, and (b) any right of contribution Guarantor may have against any other guarantor of any of the Guarantied Obligations. Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification Guarantor may have against Debtor or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, will be junior and subordinate to any rights Beneficiary may have against Debtor, to all right, title and interest Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor. Beneficiary may use, sell or dispose of any item of collateral or security as it sees fit without regard to any subrogation rights Guarantor may have, and upon any such disposition or sale any rights of subrogation such Guarantor may have will terminate. If any amount will be paid to Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification rights at any time when all Guarantied Obligations will not have been paid in full, such amount will be held in trust for Beneficiary and will forthwith be paid over to Beneficiary to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof. 2.6 EXPENSES. Guarantor agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, on demand, and to save Beneficiary harmless against liability for, any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and reasonable allocated costs of internal counsel) incurred or expended by Beneficiary in connection with the enforcement of or preservation of any rights under this Guaranty. 2.7 CONTINUING GUARANTY. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and will remain in effect until all of the Guarantied Obligations will have been paid in full. Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guarantied Obligations. 2.8 AUTHORITY OF GUARANTOR OR DEBTOR. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Beneficiary has no obligation to inquire into the capacity or powers of Guarantor or Debtor or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them, and failure of Beneficiary to make any such inquiries shall not affect the enforceability of this Guaranty. 2.9 FINANCIAL CONDITION OF DEBTOR. Any extensions of credit may be granted to Debtor or continued from time to time without notice to or authorization from Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Debtor at the time of any such grant or continuation. Beneficiary will have no obligation to disclose or discuss with Guarantor its assessment, or Guarantor's assessment, of the financial condition of Debtor. Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Debtor on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Debtor and its ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, and Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Debtor and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guarantied Obligations. Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Debtor now known or hereafter known by Beneficiary. 2.10 RIGHTS CUMULATIVE. The rights, powers and remedies given to Beneficiary by this Guaranty are cumulative and will be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies given to Beneficiary by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Loan Documents or any agreement between Guarantor and Beneficiary or between Debtor and Beneficiary. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay by Beneficiary in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder will not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor will it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy. 2.11 BANKRUPTCY; POST-PETITION INTEREST; REINSTATEMENT OF GUARANTY. (a) So long as any Guarantied Obligations remain outstanding, Guarantor will not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of the applicable Loan Document, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceedings of or against Debtor. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty will not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Debtor or by any defense that Debtor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding. (b) Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations that accrues after the commencement of any proceeding referred to in CLAUSE (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of said proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guarantied Obligations if said proceedings had not been commenced) will be included in the Guarantied Obligations, because it is the intention of Guarantor and Beneficiary that the Guarantied Obligations that are guarantied by Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order that may relieve Debtor of any portion of such Guarantied Obligations. Guarantor will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay Beneficiary, or allow the claim of Beneficiary in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such proceeding is commenced. (c) If all or any portion of the Guarantied Obligations are paid by Debtor, the obligations of Guarantor hereunder will continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments that are so rescinded or recovered will constitute Guarantied Obligations for all purposes under this Guaranty. 2.12 NOTICE OF EVENTS. As soon as Guarantor obtains knowledge thereof, Guarantor will give Beneficiary written notice of any condition or event that has resulted in (a) a material adverse change in the financial condition of Guarantor or Debtor or (b) a breach of or noncompliance with any term, condition or covenant contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or any other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto.

[ADD SIGNATURE BLOCKS AND NOTARY BLOCKS] Exhibit N-1 EXHIBIT A LEGAL DESCRIPTION EXHIBIT O SECOND AMENDMENT AND CONSENT [ATTACHED] Exhibit O-1 SECOND AMENDMENT AND CONSENT THIS SECOND AMENDMENT AND CONSENT (this "SECOND AMENDMENT") is dated as of February __, 2001 and entered into by and among GOLF TRUST OF AMERICA, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "PARTNERSHIP") and THE LIMITED PARTNERS OF THE PARTNERSHIP listed on the signature pages hereof (each, a "LIMITED PARTNER" and collectively, the "LIMITED PARTNERS"), and is made with reference to that certain First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Golf Trust of America, L.P., dated as of February 12, 1997, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Partnership Agreement dated as of February 1, 1998 (as so amended, the "PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT"). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as set forth in the Partnership Agreement. THE PARTIES ENTER THIS AGREEMENT ON THE BASIS OF THE FOLLOWING FACTS, UNDERSTANDINGS AND INTENTIONS: A. GTA GP, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "GENERAL PARTNER") is the general partner of the Partnership, and is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Golf Trust of America, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "COMPANY"). B. The Company presently intends to seek the approval of its shareholders for the adoption of a plan of liquidation or dissolution (the "COMPANY PLAN OF LIQUIDATION") and, if such plan is approved and the requisite consents obtained, shall sell substantially all of its assets in connection therewith. C. In connection with the Company Plan of Liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Company shall seek to liquidate or dissolve the Partnership, or to otherwise sell substantially all of its assets. D. Section 11.02 of the Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner may not sell, transfer or convey substantially all of the assets of the Partnership without the written consent of Limited Partners holding 66.67% of the Partnership Interests of the Limited Partners. E. Section 8.08 of the Partnership Agreement provides that, if the Partnership chooses to sell an "Initial Golf Course" in certain circumstances set forth therein, the Partnership shall use reasonable efforts to structure such sale as a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. F. Structuring sales of the Initial Golf Courses as like-kind exchanges would prevent the Partnership from selling substantially all of the assets of the Partnership, to the detriment of the Partnership and the Limited Partners. 1 G. As a condition precedent to the Company's solicitation of its shareholders' consent to the Company Plan of Liquidation, the Company has required that the Partnership obtain the requisite consent of its Limited Partners to the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Partnership pursuant to the Company Plan of Liquidation and to the deletion of Section 8.08 of the Partnership Agreement. H. Each Limited Partner executing this Second Amendment desires the Partnership to sell all or substantially all of its assets pursuant to the Company Plan of Liquidation and to delete Section 8.08 of the Partnership Agreement in order to permit the Partnership to sell the Initial Golf Courses without structuring such sales as like-kind exchanges under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: SECTION 1. CONSENT The Limited Partners hereby consent, pursuant to Section 11.02 of the Partnership Agreement, to the sale, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership in one or more transactions or series of transactions (the "PARTNERSHIP LIQUIDATION") following approval of, and pursuant to, the Company Plan of Liquidation. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the consent provided in this Section 1 shall be limited to a consent to the Partnership Liquidation following approval of, and pursuant to, the Company Plan of Liquidation and shall not obligate the Limited Partners to consent to or vote for, nor constitute a consent to, any other matter presented for the consent or vote of the Limited Partners. The term of this consent shall expire co-terminously with the termination of the agreement to vote and proxy contained in that certain Voting Agreement of even date by and among Golf Trust of America, Inc. and Golf Legends Ltd., Inc., Legends of Virginia LC, Golf Trust of America, L.P. and GTA GP, Inc. SECTION 2. AMENDMENT 2.1 AMENDMENT TO SECTION 8.08. Section 8.08 of the Partnership Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and substituting the following therefor: "8.08 [Intentionally omitted]" SECTION 3. LIMITED PARTNERS' REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES In order to induce the Partnership to enter into this Second Amendment, each Limited Partner, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Partnership that the following statements with respect to such Limited Partner and no other Limited Partner are true, correct and complete: 2 3.1 POWER AND AUTHORITY.

This Second Amendment is the legally valid and binding obligation of each Limited Partner, enforceable against such Limited Partner in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors' rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability. 3.5 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNITS. Each Limited Partner is the legal and beneficial owner of the number of units of each class or series of Limited Partnership Interest set forth opposite its name on ANNEX I hereto (collectively, the "OP Units"), free and clear of any liens or encumbrances whatsoever, except those which impose no restrictions on such Limited Partner's right to vote such OP Units. Each Limited Partner has the sole right to vote its OP Units, and none of the OP Units owned by such Limited Partner is subject to any voting trust or other agreement, arrangement or restriction with respect to the voting of such OP Units, except this Agreement.

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns. 4.3 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each party shall execute and deliver such additional instruments and other documents and shall take such further actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, carry out and comply with all of their obligations under this Second Amendment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the parties hereto shall enter into any agreement or arrangement (or alter, amend or terminate any existing agreement or arrangement) if such action would materially impair the ability of either party to effectuate, carry out or comply with all the terms of this Second Amendment. 4.4 HEADINGS. Section and subsection headings in this Second Amendment are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Second Amendment for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect. 4.5 APPLICABLE LAW.

This Agreement (i) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (ii) is not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder. 4.7 COUNTERPARTS; EFFECTIVENESS.

Tenant will not take any action with respect to the contesting and/or resolution of the taxable assessed value of the Golf Course without the prior 5 written consent of Purchaser, which consent may be withheld by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion. (g) LIQUOR LICENSE. Tenant will cooperate in all reasonable respects (which shall include, without limitation, supplying information known to Tenant and execution of such reasonable documents as may be legally required) with Purchaser in connection with the application for transfer of any existing (as of the Closing Date) alcoholic beverage licenses held by Tenant or its agent (other than GTA or its agents) in connection with its operation of the Golf Course (the "LIQUOR LICENSE") to Purchaser or Purchaser's application for a new Liquor License (as the case may be, the "LIQUOR APPLICATION"). Purchaser shall diligently and in good faith proceed with the Liquor Application to secure a Liquor License to be effective from and after the Closing Date (if possible). If Purchaser is unable to obtain the transfer of the Liquor License or to obtain a new Liquor License prior to the Closing, then so long as Purchaser has diligently and in good faith proceeded with the Liquor Application and its efforts to secure a Liquor License prior to Closing (if it is possible in the jurisdiction where the Golf Course is located to obtain such a Liquor License prior to the Closing), then on the Closing Date Tenant and Purchaser shall enter into an interim arrangement (the "INTERIM ARRANGEMENT") whereby Tenant shall operate the liquor concessions, if any, at the Golf Course on behalf of Purchaser pending the transfer or issuance of the Liquor License, if any, to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising in connection with such operation. The Interim Arrangement would be structured in the form of either a short-term management agreement or a short-term lease, as may be customary in the jurisdiction where the Golf Course is located, with Purchaser as landlord or owner and Tenant (or the party that currently holds the Liquor License, as applicable) as tenant or manager, as applicable, cancelable at any time by Purchaser and, in the case of a management agreement, with the fee payable to Tenant thereunder adequate to reimburse Tenant for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of managing the purchase, sale and service of alcoholic beverages at the Golf Course or, in the case of a short-term lease, with the rent payable thereunder equal to all profits relating to the service of alcoholic beverages at the Golf Course (I.E., after deducting the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of managing the purchase, sale and service of alcoholic beverages at the Golf Course), all as further described in a lease agreement to be mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and Tenant prior to the Closing. The term of the Interim Arrangement shall not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, such that the Interim Arrangement shall terminate on or before the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date. In any event, as of or after the Closing Date, at such time as Purchaser instructs Tenant in writing to do so, Tenant shall execute such written agreements, statements and/or forms as may be reasonably required to terminate Tenant's Liquor License. The terms of this Section shall survive the Closing Date. 3.2 GUEST PROPERTY IN TENANT'S POSSESSION ON CLOSING DATE. Property of guests and patrons of the Golf Course in Tenant's care, possession or control (E.G., golf clubs) on the Closing Date shall be handled in the following manner: All guest baggage and other guest property checked, and left in the possession, care and control of Tenant shall be listed in an inventory to be prepared in duplicate and signed by Tenant's and Purchaser's representatives on the Closing Date (such property, "Patron Property Inventory"). Purchaser shall be responsible 6 from and after the Closing Date for all Patron Property Inventory, and Purchaser agrees to indemnify and save and hold Tenant harmless from and against any claim arising out of or with respect to the Patron Property Inventory. IV. CLOSING MATTERS 4.1 ADJUSTMENT AND PRORATIONS. The revenues and expenses of the Golf Course shall be apportioned between Tenant and Purchaser in accordance with the terms and provisions below. For purposes of making such apportionments, Inventory (including, without limitation, Food and Beverages) shall be valued at cost to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated or implied herein, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Tenant may postpone and/or contest payment of any operating expense or trade account for which Tenant is responsible which is the subject of a bona fide dispute. Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any claims or other matters relating to such operating expenses and trade accounts. (a) TAX PRORATIONS. Real estate taxes and personal property taxes, and other assessments payable in installments (including, without limitation, municipal improvement liens), assessed against or imposed with respect to the Golf Course shall be prorated as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date (the "Proration Time"). If the exact amount of any taxes or assessments is not known on or prior to the Closing Date, the proration will be based on the prior year's taxes and shall be adjusted after the Closing Date between Tenant and Purchaser once actual figures become available, as provided in SUBSECTION (k) below. As between Tenant and Purchaser, Tenant shall be responsible for all such taxes and assessments accruing prior to the Proration Time, and Purchaser shall be responsible for all such taxes and assessments accruing from and after the Proration Time. (b) UTILITIES PRORATIONS. All waste and garbage and other Utilities charges and all other similar charges with respect to the Golf Course shall be prorated as of the Proration Time. As between Tenant and Purchaser, Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of all Utilities furnished to the Golf Course accruing prior to the Proration Time and Purchaser shall assume payment of said Utilities from and after the Proration Time. (c) PRORATION OF CONTRACTS. Amounts payable under contracts that are assigned to the Purchaser in connection with the Closing shall be prorated as of the Proration Time. Tenant shall pay and be responsible for all costs and charges accrued under such agreements for the period accruing prior to the Proration Time, and Seller shall be responsible for all costs and charges accruing under such agreements for the period accruing from and after the Proration Time. On the Closing Date, Purchaser shall reimburse Tenant for the pro rata costs under any such agreements which accrue from and after the Proration Time and which were actually paid by Tenant, and Tenant shall pay to Purchaser the pro rata costs under any such agreements which accrued during the period prior to the Proration Time and which were not previously paid by Tenant. (d) SECURITY DEPOSITS. Any sums held by Tenant as a security deposit, if any, due to the depositor, together with interest thereon, for the rental, use of or any services relating 7 to the Golf Course (or any portion thereof), including, without limitation, prepaid and unearned Tee Time, banquet, outing and other deposits for periods after the Proration Time, shall be paid over and assigned to Purchaser on the Closing Date. As between Purchaser and Tenant, Purchaser shall assume all obligations of Tenant with respect to such security deposits actually assigned over to Purchaser on the Closing Date. A non-exclusive list of all deposits described in this SUBSECTION (d) along with a list of any scheduled banquets or outings is attached hereto as EXHIBIT 4.1. (e) PREPAID REVENUES. All prepaid Revenues pertaining to the Golf Course shall be prorated as of the Proration Time. Purchaser shall have a right to and shall receive an amount equal to any Revenues relating to the Golf Course for periods accruing from and after the Proration Time and actually collected by the Tenant prior to the Closing Date. The right to collect and keep such Revenues relating to the Golf Course from and after the Closing Date (whether such Revenues apply to periods prior to or after the Proration Time) shall be assigned to and assumed by the Purchaser on the Closing Date, and Tenant shall promptly remit to Purchaser any such Revenues received by Tenant on or after the Closing Date. (f) ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. Accounts receivable of the Golf Course (meaning any and all Revenues accrued but unpaid as of the Closing Date) shall be adjusted as follows: (i) On the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay to Tenant an amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the amount of all accounts receivable aged ninety (90) days or less as of the Closing Date. Tenant shall not receive any credit for accounts receivable aged more than ninety (90) days. On such payment, Tenant shall take no steps to collect any accounts receivable relating to the Golf Course, and Tenant's entire right, title and interest in and to all a ccounts receivable relating to the rental, use or operation of the Golf Course (including, without limitation, accounts receivable aged more than ninety (90) days) shall be assigned to Purchaser, and Tenant hereby covenants and agrees to execute and deliver to Purchaser all instruments and documents reasonably requested by Purchaser in order to effectively assign the Tenant's rights in and to such accounts receivable. (ii) For a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have access, upon two (2) business days' advance notice, to Tenant's books and records relating to the Golf Course to verify the accuracy of Tenant's accounting for the accounts receivable and to verify the existence and accuracy of Purchaser's claim therefor. (g) CASH; NEGOTIABLE INSTRUMENTS. All cash and negotiable instruments on hand with respect to the Golf Course as of the Proration Time shall be retained by Tenant. 8 (h) INVENTORIES. The Inventory (including, without limitation, Food and Beverages) for the Golf Course shall be maintained in accordance with the requirements of the Lease for the Golf Course through the Closing Date and shall be subject to the applicable terms and provisions of such Lease. All Inventory for the Golf Course shall be assigned to the Purchaser on the Closing Date with appropriate proration credit or other adjustment to Tenant provided therefor. (i) COSTS AND EXPENSES. Any other costs, expenses or payables (including, without limitation, any and all accounts payable) accrued and outstanding with respect to the Golf Course as of the Proration Time shall be either paid by Tenant, or Tenant shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to such costs, expenses or payables that are not so paid as of the Proration Time. On the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay to Tenant an amount equal to any other costs, expenses or payables (including, without limitation, accounts payable) accruing with respect to the Golf Course during the period from and after the Proration Time but actually paid by Tenant prior to the Proration Time. (j) GENERAL PRORATION PROVISIONS. All prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days of the month which shall have elapsed as of the Closing Date and based upon the actual number of days in the month and a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year. Tenant, GTA and Purchaser shall cause their respective representatives to make such inventories, examinations and audits of the Golf Course, and of the books and records of the Golf Course, as the parties may deem necessary to make the adjustments and prorations required under this SECTION 4.1. Based upon such audits and inventories, GTA will prepare (with the assistance and co-operation of Tenant and Purchaser) and deliver no later than four (4) business days prior to the Closing Date the closing statements setting forth the foregoing prorations and adjustments (the "Closing Statements"). The Closing Statements shall contain GTA's best good faith estimate of the amounts of the items requiring prorations and adjustments pursuant to this SECTION 4.1 above. Tenant and Purchaser shall have the right to approve the Closing Statements, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The amounts set forth on the Closing Statements shall be the basis upon which the prorations and adjustments provided for herein shall be made on the Closing Date. The net proration amount shown on the Closing Statements shall be paid, in cash, by Purchaser or Tenant, as the case may be, to the other on the Closing Date. (k) POST-CLOSING DATE ADJUSTMENTS. Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Tenant, GTA and Purchaser will cooperate in preparing a final report setting forth the final determination of all the items included on the Closing Statements. In the event that, at any time within the said ninety (90) day period, either party discovers any items that should have been included on the Closing Statements but were omitted therefrom, such items shall be adjusted in the same manner as if their existence had been known at the time of the preparation of the Closing Statement. The foregoing limitation shall not apply to any item which, by its nature, cannot be finally determined within the time period specified (such as real property taxes); PROVIDED THAT, no further adjustments shall be made in any event after January 31, 2002. The terms and provisions of this SECTION 4.1 shall survive the Closing Date until January 31, 2002. 9 4.2 STAFF. (a) Tenant shall be responsible for paying all wages and fringe benefits (including, but not limited to, accrued vacation pay, sick pay and payroll taxes) through the Closing Date, and to the extent that any such Golf Course Employees' wages and/or fringe benefits are not so paid by Tenant prior to the Closing, then such wages and/or fringe benefits for Golf Course Employees who are rehired by Purchaser on or after the Closing, upon such notice as is required below, shall be apportioned as provided in this Agreement below. Specifically, (i) wages accrued as of the Closing Date shall be paid by Tenant on or before the Closing Date as if the Golf Course Employees to which such wages relate were terminated as of the Closing Date and not rehired by Purchaser (I.E., whether or not the Golf Course Employee is hired by Purchaser at or after the Closing), (ii) fringe benefits (including, but not limited to, accrued vacation pay, sick pay and payroll taxes) for any Golf Course Employees who are rehired by Purchaser shall be calculated and prorated for the benefit of Purchaser as of the Closing Date and Purchaser shall assume the obligation to pay such fringe benefits thereafter (E.G., if a Golf Course Employee who is rehired by Purchaser were to receive 7 days of vacation pay per year but the right to receive such 7 days of vacation pay did not vest until after 1 year of service and such Golf Course Employee had only been employed for 6 months, an amount shall be prorated and credited to Purchaser equal to one-half of such 7 days of vacation pay), and (iii) fringe benefits (including, but not limited to, accrued vacation pay, sick pay and payroll taxes) for any Golf Course Employees who are NOT rehired by Purchaser and that are vested as of the Closing Date shall be calculated and paid by Tenant prior to the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall have no obligation or liability of any nature whatsoever with respect thereto. For purposes of determining the proration credit to be given to the Purchaser hereunder, the Purchaser shall provide Tenant with a written list of all Golf Course Employees that the Purchaser will rehire on or after the Closing Date no later than three (3) business days prior to the Closing. (b) Tenant shall terminate all Golf Course Employees as of the Closing. Purchaser shall, before the Closing, consider in good faith hiring each Golf Course Employee desiring to be hired as of the Closing and shall provide Tenant with the list of Golf Course Employees it intends to rehire as provided in the last sentence of SUBSECTION (a) above. Tenant agrees to cooperate with Purchaser so that Purchaser may distribute a letter or other appropriate forms to Golf Course Employees to determine if each such employee wishes to apply to work for Purchaser at the Golf Course after the Closing Date. Such letter or other forms may request that any Golf Course Employee wishing to be considered for employment agree to allow Purchaser to review the Golf Course Employee's personnel file. If Purchaser requests access to the personnel files of the Golf Course Employees, Tenant agrees to allow Purchaser to review such personnel files, subject to each Golf Course Employee's written consent with Tenant's approval of the form thereof, and to permit the transfer to Purchaser of the personnel files and medical files of any Golf Course Employee offered employment by Purchaser, again subject to the written consent of each affected Golf Course Employee. Tenant shall use its best efforts to have dismissed with prejudice, prior to the Closing Date, any and all litigation existing as of or arising after the Effective Date involving past or present Golf Course Employees and/or union or labor disputes. In the event that Tenant is not successful in causing the dismissal of such litigation prior to the Closing Date, then Tenant shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and 10 against any loss, damage, liability, claim, cost or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) that may be incurred by, or asserted against, Purchaser after the Closing which involves any matter relating to a past or present Golf Course Employee and/or union or labor disputes concerning acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Purchaser shall have the sole right, at Purchaser's election, after the Closing Date, to supervise and direct any such litigation and to use counsel of Purchaser's choosing (whether or not counsel for such litigation had been retained by Tenant prior to the Closing Date). Tenant shall be solely responsible for compliance with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Act ("WARN ACT") as well as any applicable state plant closing or similar worker displacement law, if applicable, and Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, cost or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) that may be incurred by, or asserted against, Purchaser as a result of Tenant's failure to comply with the WARN ACT or any applicable state plant closing or similar worker displacement law. Nothing in this Agreement shall require (a) Purchaser to assume any obligations under any employee benefit plans currently maintained for Golf Course Employees unless otherwise required by law or (b) Purchaser or its management company to continue to employ any Golf Course Employee hired by either of them for any specified period of time after the Closing Date. V. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT 5.1 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT. This Agreement is contingent upon the Closing. If the Property-Conveyance described herein does not occur, then this Agreement is null and void. VI.
