(t)           Each CT Entity and Significant Subsidiary, as applicable, has timely and duly filed (or filed extensions thereof (and which extensions are presently in effect)) all Tax Returns required to be filed by them, except where such would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, and all such Tax Returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects.  Each CT Entity and Significant Subsidiary, as applicable, has timely and duly paid in full all Taxes required to be paid by them (whether or not such amounts are shown as due on any Tax Return), except for any Taxes that are being disputed in good faith and for which adequate reserves are held.  There are no federal, state, or other Tax audits or deficiency assessments proposed or pending with respect any CT Entity or any of the Significant Subsidiaries, and no such audits or assessments have been threatened in a writing received by it or them.  As used herein, the terms “Tax” or “Taxes” mean (i) all federal, state, local, and foreign taxes, and other assessments of a similar nature (whether imposed directly or through withholding), including any interest, additions to tax, or penalties applicable thereto, imposed by any Governmental Entity, and (ii) all liabilities in respect of such amounts arising as a result of being a member of any affiliated, consolidated, combined, unitary or similar group, as a successor to another person or by contract.  As used herein, the term “Tax Returns” means all federal, state, local, and foreign Tax returns, declarations, statements, reports, schedules, forms, and information returns and any amendments thereto filed or required to be filed with any Governmental Entity.
 
 
12

 
 
(u)           The books, records and accounts of each CT Entity and its subsidiaries accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, the transactions in, and dispositions of, the assets of, and the results of operations of, each CT Entity and its subsidiaries.  Each CT Entity and each of its subsidiaries maintains a system of internal accounting controls to provide reasonable assurances that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.
 
(v)           No filing with, or authorization, approval, consent, license, order, registration, qualification or decree of, any Governmental Entity, other than those that have been made or obtained, is necessary or required for the performance by the CT Entities of their obligations under the Operative Documents, as applicable, or the consummation by the CT Entities of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents.
 
(w)           Each CT Entity and the Significant Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts in all material respects as are customary in the businesses in which they are engaged or propose to engage after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby including but not limited to, real or personal property owned or leased against theft, damage, destruction, act of vandalism and all other risks customarily insured against.  All policies of insurance and fidelity or surety bonds insuring such CT Entity or any of the Significant Subsidiaries or its or their respective businesses, assets, employees, officers and directors are in full force and effect.  Each of the CT Entities and the Significant Subsidiaries are in compliance with the terms of such policies and instruments in all material respects. Neither CT nor any Significant Subsidiary has reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.  Within the past twelve months, neither CT nor any Significant Subsidiary has been denied any insurance coverage it has sought or for which it has applied.
 
(x)           Each CT Entity and its subsidiaries or any person acting on behalf of each CT Entity and its subsidiaries including, without limitation, any director, officer, agent or employee of each CT Entity or its subsidiaries has not, directly or indirectly, while acting on behalf of each CT Entity and its subsidiaries (i) used any corporate funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds, (iii) violated any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, or (iv) made any other unlawful payment.
 
 
13

14

 
 
(z)           CT (i) is a sophisticated entity with respect to the Exchange, (ii) has such knowledge and experience, and has made investments of a similar nature, so as to be aware of the risks and uncertainties inherent in the Exchange and (iii) has independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the WestLB Lenders or any of their Affiliates, and based on such information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement, except that it has relied upon the Administrative Agent’s and the WestLB Lenders’ express representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement.  It acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor the WestLB Lenders or any of their Affiliates has given it any investment advice, credit information or opinion on whether the Exchange is prudent.
 
(aa)           There is no action, suit or proceeding before or by any Governmental Entity, arbitrator or court, domestic or foreign, now pending or, to the knowledge of it after due inquiry, threatened against or affecting it or any of its subsidiaries, except for such actions, suits or proceedings that, if adversely determined, would not, singly or in the aggregate, adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or have a Material Adverse Effect; and the aggregate of all pending legal or governmental proceedings to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of their respective properties or assets is subject, including ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, are not expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
 
(bb)           The accountants of CT who certified the Financial Statements are independent public accountants of CT and its subsidiaries within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) thereunder.
 
(cc)           The audited consolidated financial statements (including the notes thereto) and schedules of CT and its consolidated subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the Commission in CT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the “Financial Statements”) and the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements of CT and its consolidated subsidiaries for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 (the “Interim Financial Statements”) are the most recent publicly available audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements of CT and its consolidated subsidiaries, respectively, and fairly present in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP, the financial position of CT and its consolidated subsidiaries, and the results of operations and changes in financial condition as of the dates and for the periods therein specified, subject in the case of Interim Financial Statements, to year-end adjustments.  Such consolidated financial statements and schedules have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as otherwise noted therein and subject to normal recurring adjustments in the ordinary course).
 
(dd)           Neither CT nor any of its subsidiaries has any material liability, whether asserted or unasserted, whether absolute or contingent, whether accrued or unaccrued, whether liquidated or unliquidated, and whether due or to become due, including any liability for taxes (and there is no past or present fact, situation, circumstance, condition or other basis for any present or future action, suit, proceeding, hearing, charge, complaint, claim or demand against CT or any of its subsidiaries that could give rise to any such liability), except for (i) liabilities set forth in the Financial Statements or the Interim Financial Statements and (ii) normal fluctuations in the amount of the liabilities referred to in clause (i) above occurring in the ordinary course of business of CT and all of its subsidiaries since the date of the most recent balance sheet included in such Financial Statements and Interim Financial Statements and (iii) as described in the Exchange Act Reports.
 
 
15

 
 
(ee)           Since the respective dates of the Interim Financial Statements, there has not been (A) any Material Adverse Effect or (B) any dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by CT on any class of its Equity Interests, other than regular quarterly dividends on CT’s common stock.
 
(ff)           The documents of CT filed with the Commission in accordance with the Exchange Act, from and including the commencement of the fiscal year covered by CT’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, at the time they were or hereafter are filed by CT with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and, at the date of this Agreement and on the Closing Date, do not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and other than such instruments, agreements, contracts and other documents as are filed as exhibits to CT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, there are no instruments, agreements, contracts or documents of a character described in Item 601 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Commission to which CT or any of its subsidiaries is a party that are required to be so filed.  To the actual knowledge of the Chief Financial Officer of CT, CT is in compliance with all currently applicable requirements of the Exchange Act that were added by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
 
(gg)           Commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 2003, CT has been, and upon the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, CT will continue to be (for as long as the board of directors of CT believes it is in CT’s best interest to qualify as a REIT), organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, and CT’s organizational structure and proposed method of operation will enable it to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code, and no actions have been taken (or not taken which are required to be taken) which would cause such qualification to be lost.  As long as the board of directors of CT believes it is in CT’s best interests to qualify as a REIT, CT expects to continue to be organized and to operate in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT in the taxable year ending December 31, 2011 and succeeding taxable years.
 
(hh)           The information regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement provided by CT to the Administrative Agent and the WestLB Lenders does not, as of the date hereof, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
 
5.            Representations and Warranties of the WestLB Lenders.  Each of the WestLB Lenders, for itself and its Affiliates to which any Units or Series 1 LLC Interest Secured Notes may be delivered, if applicable, represents and warrants to each of the CT Entities as follows:
 
 
16

(b)           This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and, on the Closing Date, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the CT Entities, as applicable, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Party, enforceable against such Party in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity.
 
(c)           No filing with, or authorization, approval, consent, license, order registration, qualification or decree of, any Governmental Entity or any other person, other than those that have been made or obtained, is necessary or required for the performance by such Party of its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated herein.
 
(d)           It is a “Qualified Purchaser” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act.  It is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

(h)           It is aware that the Units and Series 1 LLC Interest Secured Notes may not be transferred if such transfer results in the assets being deemed “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

7.            Prepayment Restrictions; Continuing Reporting Obligations.
 
(a)           Except for prepayments pursuant to the payment of dividends or distributions on the New LLC Interests and the Class A-1 Units of CT Legacy REIT Holdings securing those certain 8.19% series 2 secured notes due 2016 issued by CT Legacy Series 2 Note Issuer, LLC (the “Series 2 Notes”), neither CT Legacy Holdings nor any of its subsidiaries shall prepay either the Series 1 LLC Interest Secured Notes or the Series 2 Notes unless any prepayment is made pro rata among both the Series 1 LLC Interest Secured Notes and the Series 2 Notes based on the outstanding principal amount thereof, including any payment in kind interest accrued thereon and added thereto.

18

 
 
8.            Payment of Expenses.  On the Closing Date, in addition to the obligations agreed to by CT under Section 2(b)(vi) herein, the CT Entities shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the WestLB Lenders in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the reasonable fees of Sidley Austin LLP for the Administrative Agent and the WestLB Lenders.  The CT Entities shall pay the fees and all reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent appointed under the Pledge Agreements and the Control Agreements, including the fees and disbursements of one counsel for the Collateral Agent until these agreements are terminated in accordance with their terms.
 
9.            Indemnification.
 
(a)  The CT Entities agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the WestLB Lenders, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls them within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based on (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements contained in any information provided by the CT Entities, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (ii) the breach or alleged breach of any representation, warranty, or agreement of the CT Entities contained herein, or (iii) the execution and delivery by the CT Entities of the Operative Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein, and agrees to reimburse each such Indemnified Party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the CT Entities may otherwise have.
 
(b)           Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under paragraph (a) above unless and to the extent that such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of material rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any Indemnified Party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) above.  The Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to appoint counsel to represent the Indemnified Parties in any action for which indemnification is sought.  An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action.  In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, unless an Indemnified Party elects to engage separate counsel because such Indemnified Party believes that its interests are not aligned with the interests of another Indemnified Party or that a conflict of interest might result.  An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnified Parties are actual or potential parties to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

17.            Counterparts and Facsimile.  This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the Parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the Parties hereto by facsimile.
 
18.           Transactions Steps.  The Parties hereby acknowledge that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement involve a series of steps as more fully described in the Recitals to this Agreement and as set forth in Exhibit A hereto, and represent that it is their intention that the various steps set forth in such Recitals be consummated in the sequence set forth therein.

(f)           Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any indemnification set forth herein shall be fully subordinate to the Obligations and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall not constitute a claim against the Company in the event that the Company’s cash flow is insufficient to pay its Obligations.

(c)           Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each of the Member, the Special Member and any additional member waive any right it might have to agree in writing to dissolve the Company upon the Bankruptcy of the Member, Special Member or additional member, or the occurrence of an event that causes the Member, Special Member or additional member to cease to be a member of the Company.

(b)           The Collateral Agent, at the written direction and in the sole discretion of the Holder, may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable by the Holder with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral;
 
(c)           The Collateral Agent, at the written direction and in the sole discretion of the Holder, in its name or in the name of the Pledgor or otherwise, may demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so;

(f)           The Collateral Agent shall not be required to take steps necessary or advisable to preserve any rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral;
 
(g)           In enforcing any rights hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to resort to any particular security, right or remedy through foreclosure or otherwise or to proceed in any particular order of priority, or otherwise act or refrain from acting, and, to the extent permitted by law, the Pledgor hereby waives and releases any right to a marshaling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation;
 
(h)           The Collateral Agent may register any or all of the Pledged Securities in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee without any further consent of the Pledgor;
 
(i)           The Collateral Agent or its nominee at any time, without notice, may exercise or refrain from exercising any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Collateral owned by the Pledgor or any part thereof, and to receive all interest and distributions in respect of such Collateral;
 
(j)           The Pledgor shall assemble and make available to the Collateral Agent the Collateral and all records relating thereto at any place or places specified by the Collateral Agent; and
 
 
G-11

 
 
(k)           The Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Holder, may be required to comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral, and such compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.
 
The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 5 shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to the Obligations pursuant to Section 6 hereof.
 
Section 6.                      Application of Proceeds.  During any period in which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant hereto, and any other cash at the time held by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, shall be applied (or caused to be applied) by the Collateral Agent:
 
(a)           First, to the extent not otherwise paid in accordance with the terms of the Fee and Indemnification Agreement, to the payment of any and all Collateral Agent Expenses and any other Obligations owing to the Collateral Agent in respect of costs and expenses of such collection, sale or other realization or the preservation of the security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent and the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel, and all expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, until paid in full;
 
(b)           Second, to the payment in full of the Obligations; and
 
(c)           Third, to the payment to the Pledgor, or its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining.
 
As used in this Section 6, “proceeds” of Collateral shall include cash, securities and other property realized in respect of, and distributions in kind of, the Collateral.
 
Section 7.                      Sale of Collateral.
 
7.1           Private Sales.
 
(a)           Each of the Pledgor and the Holder recognizes that the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Securities, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.  Each of the Pledgor and the Holder acknowledges and agrees that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the Pledgor and the Holder than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of being a private sale. Neither the Holder nor the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Securities for the period of time necessary to permit the Pledged Entity or Pledgor to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the Pledged Entity or Pledgor would agree to do so.
 
 
G-12

 
 
(b)           The Collateral Agent, at the direction and in the sole discretion of the Holder, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall have the right to conduct any foreclosure sale of any part of the Collateral.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Holder may, in its sole and absolute discretion but only to the extent permitted by applicable law, direct the Collateral Agent in writing to retain and acquire for the Holder and/or its designees or nominees, the Collateral by instructing the Pledgor and/or the Pledged Entity to register on its ledgers and books the Collateral Agent’s acquisition of the Collateral and each certificate which embodies the Pledged Securities, subject to any rights of the Pledgor to object in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code, if the Pledgor has not renounced or waived such rights in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code. In connection therewith, the Collateral Agent, at the written direction of the Holder, shall have the right to complete any Unit Power in its favor.
 
(c)           The Pledgor further shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be reasonably necessary to make any sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Securities pursuant to this Section 7.1 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other requirements of applicable law. The Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 7.1 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Parties, that the Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 7.1 shall be specifically enforceable against the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Note.
 
(d)           The Collateral Agent and the Holder shall not incur any liability as a result of the sale of any Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner, it being agreed that some or all of the Collateral is or may be of one or more types that threaten to decline speedily in value and that are not customarily sold in a recognized market. Each of the Pledgor and the Holder hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent and the Holder arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any of the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Debt, even if the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, accepts the first offer received and does not offer any Collateral to more than one offeree.
 
(e)           The Pledgor acknowledges that Securities and Exchange Commission staff personnel have issued various No-Action Letters describing procedures which, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission staff, permit a foreclosure sale of securities to occur in a manner that is public for purposes of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, yet not public for purposes of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.  The Uniform Commercial Code permits the Pledgor to agree on the standards for determining whether the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, has complied with its obligations under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code.  Pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, the Pledgor specifically agrees (x) that it shall not raise any objection to the Collateral Agent’s or the Holder’s purchase of the Pledged Securities (through bidding on the obligations or otherwise) and (y) that a foreclosure sale conducted in conformity with the principles set forth in the No-Action Letters (i) shall be considered to be a “public” sale for purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code; (ii) will be considered commercially reasonable notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent has not registered or sought to register the Pledged Securities under the applicable securities laws, even if the Pledgor or any Pledged Entity agrees to pay all costs of the registration process; and (iii) shall be considered to be commercially reasonable notwithstanding that the Collateral Agent or the Holder purchases the Pledged Securities at such a sale.
 
 
G-13

 
 
(f)           Each of the Pledgor and the Holder agrees that the Collateral Agent shall not have any general duty or obligation to make any effort to obtain or pay any particular price for any Pledged Securities sold by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
 
(g)           To the extent that provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law impose duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, it is hereby agreed by all the parties hereto that it is commercially reasonable for the Collateral Agent to do any of the following:
 
(i)           not incur significant costs, expenses or other liabilities reasonably deemed as such by the Collateral Agent to prepare any Collateral for disposition;
 
(ii)           not obtain consents for the collection or disposition of any Collateral (other than a Sale Notice or an Election Notice, as the case may be);
 
(iii)           to the extent any sale of the Collateral is conducted through a public sale, to advertise dispositions of any Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature or to contact other persons for expressions of interest in acquiring any such Collateral;
 
(iv)           to the extent any sale of the Collateral is conducted through an auction, to appoint one or more other qualified auctioneers as directed by the Interested Holder delivering a Sale Notice to the Collateral Agent to act as auction agent to assist in the disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature or, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants, legal advisors, agents and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any Collateral (the reasonable fees and expenses of such service providers to constitute Collateral Agent Expenses hereunder), utilize Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets to dispose of any Collateral, or solicit bids wanted in competition to effect a disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral;
 
(v)           dispose of the Collateral in wholesale rather than retail markets;
 
(vi)           disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment; or
 
 
G-14

 
 
(vii)           sell Collateral at a price that may be less than the market price quoted by any valuation service provider or market-maker; provided, that the Collateral Agent has used commercially reasonable efforts to sell at such market price.
 
Each of the Pledgor and the Holder acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 7.1(g) is to provide a non-exhaustive list of actions or omissions that are commercially reasonable when exercising remedies against any Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being listed in this Section 7.1(g).  Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7.1(g) shall be construed to grant any rights to the Pledgor or the Holder or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by provisions of this Agreement, the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law in the absence of this Section 7.1(g).  It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the Collateral Agent shall not under any circumstances be deemed to be a broker, dealer or investment advisor in connection with any disposition or any Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or applicable law.
 
7.2           Procedures for Sale of Collateral.
 
(a)           If the Collateral Agent shall be notified in writing by an Interested Holder that such Interested Holder wishes to exercise its remedies by directing the Collateral Agent to sell or cause the sale of limited liability membership interests of the Pledged Entity (“Membership Interests”) pledged to such Interested Holder on a sale date at least ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice (a “Sale Date”, and such notice, a “Sale Notice”) in the manner set forth with specificity in such Sale Notice, the Collateral Agent shall, within two (2) Business Days of its receipt of any such Sale Notice, provide notice of such Sale Date (a “Sale Date Notice”) to each other Interested Holder.  Each Interested Holder receiving a Sale Date Notice shall have the right to elect and direct the Collateral Agent, by written notice to the Collateral Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Sale Date (an “Election Notice”), to sell or cause the sale of the Membership Interests pledged to it in the same manner (each an “Electing Holder”).  The delivery of a Sale Notice or an Election Notice by an Interested Holder in respect of a Sale Date shall constitute an irrevocable and binding election and direction to the Collateral Agent from such Interested Holder and its successors and assigns to sell or cause the sale of its Membership Interests on such Sale Date.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to conduct more than one sale of Membership Interests within a fourteen (14) Business Day period, nor shall it conduct any sale of the Collateral or any Membership Interest if it shall receive a Sale Notice from an Interested Holder less than ten (10) days prior to any Sale Date.  If less than all the Membership Interests to be offered for sale in any sale are sold, the Proceeds of the sale of such Membership Interests that are actually sold shall be allocated pro rata among the Interested Holders whose Membership Interests were the original subject of such proposed sale.
 
(b)           The Sale Date may be postponed at any time by the Collateral Agent.  In the case of any such postponement, the Sale Date shall be rescheduled to a date as shall be mutually agreed upon in writing by the Collateral Agent and each Interested Holder who delivered a Sale Notice for such Sale Date.  The Collateral Agent shall thereafter provide notice to each Electing Holder of the rescheduled Sale Date and each Electing Holder shall have the right to withdraw its Election Notice so long as such Electing Holder provides the Collateral Agent with written notice of its election to withdraw at least two (2) Business Days prior to any such rescheduled Sale Date.
 
 
G-15

 
 
(c)           By its acceptance of the Note, the Holder hereby waives any right, remedy or claim it may have, whether at law or in equity, against the Collateral Agent in connection with any sale of the Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, in connection with any price accepted by the Collateral Agent or any timing of any sale (other than its right to select a Sale Date if it is sending the Collateral Agent a Sale Notice) and hereby releases the Collateral Agent from any and all liability arising under or in connection with any such sale.
 
Section 8.                      Attorney in Fact.  Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Collateral Agent, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed appointed, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, the attorney-in-fact of the Pledgor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instruments which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Collateral Agent shall be entitled under this Section 8 to make collections in respect of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of the Pledgor representing any payment in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.
 
Section 9.                      Termination and Release.  When the Obligations hereunder and under the Note shall have been paid in full in cash, and the Note has been cancelled, the Collateral Agent shall, upon receipt of written confirmation from the Holder that the Obligations hereunder and under the Note have been paid in full in cash and the Note has been cancelled, forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever any remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of the Pledgor.  Subject to the confirmation from the Holder described in the immediately preceding sentence, upon the payment in full of the Obligations, the Lien granted hereunder shall automatically terminate and the Collateral Agent shall promptly take any actions, as requested in writing by the Pledgor, to terminate and release the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder and any financing statements filed in connection herewith, and to cause the Pledged Collateral and any instrument of transfer previously delivered to the Collateral Agent to be delivered to the Pledgor, all at the cost and expense of the Pledgor.  If the Holder does not notify the Collateral Agent of the cancellation of the Note within five Business Days of payment in full of the Obligations hereunder and under the Note, the Pledgor may notify the Collateral Agent of such payment in full by sending a certificate of an officer of the Pledgor certifying that the Obligations under the Note have been paid in full (the “Officer’s Payoff Certificate”).  The Officer’s Payoff Certificate shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent by overnight courier, with a copy to the Holder (and to any additional party designated in writing by the Holder, including the party set forth on Exhibit B hereto) by overnight courier.  So long as the Holder does not notify the Collateral Agent in writing that it disagrees with the Officer’s Payoff Certificate within seven Business Days of the Holder’s receipt thereof, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on the Officer’s Payoff Certificate as conclusive evidence that the Obligations hereunder and under the Note have been paid in full.
 
 
G-16

 
 
Section 10.                      Further Assurances.  The Pledgor agrees that, from time to time upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, the Pledgor will execute and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and things as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order fully to effect the purposes of this Agreement.
 
Section 11.                      Additional Agreements Concerning UCCs.  The Pledgor hereby agrees to file UCC-1 Financing Statements describing the Collateral and as may be necessary or desirable for purposes of perfecting the security interest in the Collateral granted by the Pledgor to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement.
 
Section 12.                      Substitution of Collateral.  At any time while this Agreement is in force and effect, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Pledgor may on ten Business Days prior written notice to the Collateral Agent and the Holder substitute for the Pledged Securities in whole, but not in part, (a) any readily-marketable securities (i) issued by, or directly, unconditionally and fully guaranteed or insured by the United States federal government or (ii) issued by any agency of the United States federal government the obligations of which are fully backed by the full faith and credit of the United States federal government or (b) any readily-marketable direct obligations issued by any other agency of the United States federal government, any state of the United States or any political subdivision of any such state or any public instrumentality thereof, in each case having a rating of at least “A-1” from S&P or at least “P-1” from Moody’s; provided that (x) the fair market value of the substituted Collateral referred to in this Section 12(a) and (b) at all times shall be at least equal to the amount of the outstanding Prepayment Amount under the Note, as determined by the Pledgor pursuant to the terms thereof, and shall pay interest, dividends or other distributions no more than 12 times annually, (y) the Pledgor shall have taken all such necessary or desirable action to ensure that the Collateral Agent shall have a perfected first priority security interest in the substituted Collateral prior to directing the Collateral Agent to (A) release its Liens on the existing Collateral and (B) return the existing Collateral to the Pledgor, and (z) the Collateral Agent, at the Pledgor’s request and expense, and the Pledgor shall enter into appropriate documentation to grant the Collateral Agent a first priority security interest in the substituted Collateral, in form reasonably acceptable to Collateral Agent, which documentation shall include, without limitation, a customary opinion from counsel to the Pledgor related to the grant and perfection of the security interest in the substituted Collateral.  The Pledgor hereby agrees that any direct or indirect increase in the administrative costs or expenses of the Collateral Agent or the Deposit Account Bank due to any substitution of Collateral pursuant this Section 12 shall be paid by the Pledgor.
 
Section 13.                      Miscellaneous.
 
13.1           No Waiver.  No failure or delay by the Collateral Agent or the Holder in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.  The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Holder hereunder and in the case of the Holder, under the Note, are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
Reference hereby is made to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (heretofore amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), dated as of March 16, 2009, among CAPITAL TRUST, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), the banks and financial institutions listed on the signature pages hereto (each as a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”), and WESTLB AG, NEW YORK BRANCH, for itself as a Lender, and as agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.
 
The Borrower has informed the Lenders and the Administrative Agent that Borrower expects to pay, issue and/or deliver, as applicable, to the Lenders an aggregate of (i) $22,932,203.89 in cash in immediately available funds (the “Cash”), (ii) 2,415,625 Class A-2 Units of CT Legacy REIT Holdings, LLC (the “Units”), and (iii) $2,777,775.75 principal amount of 8.19% series 1 secured notes due 2016 of CT Legacy Series 1 Note Issuer, LLC (the “Series 1 LLC Interest Secured Notes,” together with the Cash and Units, the “Payoff Amount”), which Payoff Amount the Lenders and Administrative Agent have agreed to accept in exchange for and in full satisfaction of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement.
 
1.           This letter (this “Payoff Letter”) will confirm that upon:
 
 
(a)
receipt by the Lenders of immediately available funds constituting the Cash amount, paid in accordance with the wire instructions set forth in Exhibit A hereto;
 
 
(b)
receipt by the Lenders of the Units;
 
 
(c)
receipt by the Lenders of the Series 1 LLC Interest Secured Notes; and

(the date on which all of the foregoing conditions shall first be satisfied herein called the “Payoff Date”), all of the Obligations (other than the Obligations of the Borrower described in Section 4 of this Payoff Letter) shall be paid and satisfied in full.
 

2.           The Borrower:
 
(a)           acknowledges and agrees that:
 
(i)           the amounts referred to in Section 1 above are enforceable obligations of such Borrower, payable to the Lenders and Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents without any deduction, offset, defense or counterclaim;
 
(ii)           prior to the Payoff Date, nothing contained herein shall constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of the Lenders’ and Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents;
 
(iii)           as of the Payoff Date, the Lenders and Administrative Agent shall have no further (A) commitment to provide Loans or other financial accommodations under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents and (B) obligation, duty or responsibility under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Documents or any other document or agreement executed and/or delivered in connection therewith, except as expressly set forth in Sections 3(c) and 3(d) below; and
 
(b)           upon satisfaction of the conditions to the Payoff Date set forth in Section 1 hereof, irrevocably and without further action releases each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, together with each of their respective predecessors, successors, assigns, subsidiaries, affiliates and agents and all of their respective past, present and future officers, directors, shareholders, employees, contractors and attorneys and their respective predecessors, heirs, successors and assigns, from any and all claims, actions and liabilities with respect to the Credit Agreement and all transactions related thereto arising prior to the date hereof.
 
3.           Upon satisfaction of the conditions to the Payoff Date set forth in Section 1 hereof, each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent acknowledges and agrees, on and with effect from the Payoff Date:
 
(a)           that all of the Lenders’ and Administrative Agent’s security interests in and other Liens on any and all properties and assets of the Borrower whether personal, real or mixed, tangible or intangible granted by or arising under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be, without further action, terminated, released and discharged, and shall be automatically reassigned to the Borrower, as applicable;
 
 
H-2

 
 
(b)           that the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any rights of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any control agreement, in each case entered into in connection with the Credit Agreement) shall, without further action, terminate and be of no further force or effect, except for those provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents that by their terms survive such termination and except as expressly provided herein;
 
(c)           the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to the Borrower an executed notice of termination of the Securities Account Control Agreement, dated as of March 16, 2009, among Borrower, the Administrative Agent and Bank of America, National Association (the “Control Agreement”), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B; and
 
(d)           at the reasonable request of the Borrower (such request to be reasonable in all respects, including, without limitation, with respect to the form and substance of such additional instruments or writings), to execute such additional instruments and other writings, and take such other action, as the Borrower may reasonably request to effect or evidence the satisfaction of the Obligations, the termination of the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any instruments executed pursuant thereto (other than those provisions that by their terms survive such termination), or the release of any Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent described in paragraph 3(a) above or that now or hereafter arise under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, but, in each case, without recourse to the Lenders or Administrative Agent, and without any representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, and at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower; and
 
(e)           that each of the Lenders irrevocably and without further action releases the Borrower, together with its predecessors, successors, assigns, subsidiaries, affiliates and agents and all of their respective past, present and future officers, directors, shareholders, employees, contractors and attorneys and their respective predecessors, heirs, successors and assigns, from any and all claims, actions and liabilities with respect to the Credit Agreement Obligations, the Control Agreement, and that certain Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of March 16, 2009 between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, arising prior to the date hereof; provided, however, that none of the foregoing shall be released of claims, actions and liabilities arising from fraud, mutual mistake, misrepresentation, misappropriation or omission of any material fact.

6.           If any payment, issuance and/or delivery of the Payoff Amount as contemplated herein (or any portion thereof) to any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or a fraudulent conveyance or preferential, avoided, rescinded, set aside or otherwise required to be returned or repaid, whether in bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceedings involving the Borrower or otherwise, then the Obligations shall immediately be reinstated, without need for any action by any Person, and shall be enforceable against the Borrower and its successors and assigns as if such payment had never been made (in which case this Payoff Letter shall in no way impair the claims of the Lenders and Administrative Agent with respect to such payment or transfer).

Authority to File Voluntary Bankruptcy Petition
CT LEGACY SERIES 1 NOTE ISSUER, LLC

Based upon the foregoing, and upon our examination of such questions of law and statutes as we have considered necessary or appropriate, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, limitations and exceptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that a federal bankruptcy court would hold that Delaware law, and not federal law, governs the determination of what persons or entities have authority to file a voluntary bankruptcy petition on behalf of the Company.  Our opinion is based on the assumption that in any case in which this question is considered, the question will be competently briefed and argued.  Our opinion is reasoned and also presumes that any decision rendered will be based on existing legal precedents, including those discussed below.
 
 
Annex A-III-1

 
 
State Law Opinion
CT LEGACY SERIES 1 NOTE ISSUER, LLC

1.           The Company has been duly formed and is validly existing in good standing as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Delaware.
 
2.           Under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, 6 Del. C. § 18-101, etseq. (the “LLC Act”), and the LLC Agreement, the Company has all necessary limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents, and to perform its obligations thereunder.
 
3.           Under the LLC Act and the LLC Agreement, the execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents, and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder, have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action on the part of the Company.
 
4.           No authorization, consent, approval or order of any Delaware court or any Delaware governmental or administrative body is required to be obtained by the Company solely in connection with the execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents, or the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder.
 
5.           The execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents, and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder, do not violate (i) any Delaware law, rule or regulation, or (ii) the LLC Certificate or the LLC Agreement.
 
6.           The LLC Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Member, and is enforceable against the Member, in accordance with its terms.
 
7.           If properly presented to a Delaware court, a Delaware court applying Delaware law would conclude that (i) so long as any Obligation is outstanding, in order for a Person to file a voluntary bankruptcy petition on behalf of the Company, the prior written consent of the Independent Manager, as provided for in Section 9(j)(iii) of the LLC Agreement, is required, and (ii) such provision, contained in Section 9(j)(iii) of the LLC Agreement, that requires, so long as any Obligation is outstanding, the prior written consent of the Independent Manager in order for a Person to file a voluntary bankruptcy petition on behalf of the Company, constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Member, and is enforceable against the Member, in accordance with its terms. 
 
8.           While under the LLC Act, on application to a court of competent jurisdiction, a judgment creditor of the Member may be able to charge the Member’s share of any profits and losses of the Company and the Member's right to receive distributions of the Company's assets (the “Member's Interest”), to the extent so charged, the judgment creditor has only the right to receive any distribution or distributions to which the Member would otherwise have been entitled in respect of such Member's Interest.  Under the LLC Act, no creditor of the Member shall have any right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the property of the Company.  Thus, under the LLC Act, a judgment creditor of the Member may not satisfy its claims against the Member by asserting a claim against the assets of the Company.
 
 
Annex A-III-2

 
 
9.           Under the LLC Act (i) the Company is a separate legal entity, and (ii) the existence of the Company as a separate legal entity shall continue until the cancellation of the LLC Certificate.
 
10.           Under the LLC Act and the LLC Agreement, the Bankruptcy or dissolution of the Member will not, by itself, cause the Company to be dissolved or its affairs to be wound up.
