The Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Loan Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained herein, Lender and the Borrowers agree to combine the Existing Indebtedness and the Increased Indebtedness so that together they shall constitute one loan in the principal amount of $293,825,000 (such loan and the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the same together with all interest and other amounts from time to time owing hereunder may be referred to as the "Loan") which Loan shall be comprised of the following seven (7) components (each, a "Component"): (i) a Component in an original principal amount equal to $148,875,000 ("Component A"); (ii) a Component in an original principal amount equal to $31,325,000 ("Component B"); (iv) a Component in an original principal amount equal to $31,325,000 ("Component C"); (vi) a Component in an original principal amount equal to $31,325,000 ("Component D"); (viii) a Component in an original principal amount equal to $11,800,000 ("Component E"); (x) a Component in an original principal amount equal to $35,350,000 ("Component F"); (xii) a Component in an original principal amount equal to $3,825,000 ("Component G"). (B) Note. On the Closing Date, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Lender a Amended and Restated Promissory Note, dated of even date herewith (as amended, modified or restated, and any replacement or substitute notes therefor, by means of multiple notes or otherwise, collectively, the "Note"), made by the Borrowers to the order of Lender, in the principal amount of $293,825,000. (C) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loan funded at Closing shall be used to (i) refinance existing indebtedness; (ii) pay all recording fees and taxes, title insurance premiums, the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of counsel to Lender, and other costs and expenses approved by Lender (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld) related to the Loan; (iii) establish the Reserves required hereunder; and (iv) provide for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, payment of transaction costs and expenses incurred by the Borrowers. The remaining proceeds of the Loan, if any, shall be disbursed to or as otherwise directed by the Borrowers. Section 2.2 Interest. (A) Rate of Interest. The outstanding principal balance of each Component of the Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the Component Rate for such Component and (ii) the Maximum Rate. (B) Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and in any event from and after the Maturity Date of the Loan and until the Loan and all other Obligations are satisfied in full, the outstanding principal balance of each Component of the Loan and all other Obligations shall bear interest until paid in full at a rate per annum that is five percent (5.0%) in excess of the then applicable Component Rate for each Component otherwise applicable under this Loan Agreement and the Note (the "Default Rate"). (C) Computation of Interest. Interest on the Loan and all other Obligations owing to Lender shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, and shall be charged for the actual number of days elapsed during any partial month. Interest shall be payable in arrears (except with respect to the number of days from the Payment Date in any Interest Accrual Period to the last day of such Interest Accrual Period as to which interest shall be payable in advance, if any). (D) Interest Laws. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay, and Lender shall not be permitted to collect, any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by law ("Excess Interest"). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Loan Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, then in such event: (1) the provisions of this subsection shall govern and control; (2) the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (3) any Excess Interest that Lender may have received hereunder shall be, at Lender's option, (a) applied as a credit against either or both of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan or accrued and unpaid interest thereunder (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law), (b) refunded to the payor thereof, or (c) any combination of the foregoing; (4) the interest rate(s) provided for herein shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under applicable law (the "Maximum Rate"), and this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (5) the Borrowers shall not have any action against Lender for any damages arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any Obligation is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Loan Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on such Obligations shall, to the extent permitted by law, remain at the Maximum Rate until Lender shall have received or accrued the amount of interest which Lender would have received or accrued during such period on Obligations had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period. If the Default Rate shall be finally determined to be unlawful, then the Component Rate with respect to each Component shall be applicable during any time when the Default Rate would have been applicable hereunder, provided however that if the Maximum Rate is greater or lesser than the Component Rate with respect to any Component, then the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall apply. (E) Late Charges. If an Event of Default regarding non-payment of principal, interest or other sums due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall occur, then the Borrowers shall pay to Lender, in addition to all sums otherwise due and payable, a late fee in an amount equal to five percent (5.0%) of such principal, interest or other sums due hereunder or under any other Loan Document, such late charge to be immediately due and payable without demand by Lender. Section 2.3 Additional Borrowers. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.5 hereof, on or before the expiration of the Acquisition Period, the Borrowers shall, in connection with an Acquisition, cause any Person acquired in connection with an Acquisition to assume and become jointly and severally obligated under the Note and the Loan Documents for repayment of the Loan, including causing any Acquisition Properties owned by such Person to be added as Collateral for repayment of the Loan. Upon such assumption, (i) Schedule 1 shall be amended to include such additional Persons as are designated to become "Borrowers" hereunder; (ii) all references to the Borrowers hereunder shall include all of the Borrowers identified on such amended Schedule 1; and (iii) each additional designated Affiliate shall execute an assumption and joinder agreement in the form of Exhibit G. Section 2.4 Payments. (A) Payments of Interest; Application of Payments. On each Payment Date commencing with the Payment Date in January 2005, and on each Payment Date thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, the Borrowers shall make a payment of interest at the applicable Component Rate on each Component for the Interest Accrual Period immediately preceding each such Payment Date (together with any late charges, Servicing Fees and other expenses then due and owing under the Loan Documents). Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, all payments from whatever source (including prepayment of the Loan) shall be applied first to pay late charges, the charges and expenses of Lender, and any Servicing Fees as provided hereunder, second to currently accruing interest at the applicable Component Rate on each Component, and third, to the Principal Amount of Component A until the Principal Amount of Component A has been reduced to zero, and then sequentially to each Component with an earlier alphabetical designation (i.e., B through G in that order until the Principal Amount of each Component is repaid in full. (B) Date and Time of Payment. Two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Payment Date, Lender shall provide a statement of principal and interest required to be paid on such Payment Date. The Borrowers shall receive credit for payments on the Loan which are transferred to the account of Lender as provided below (i) on the day that such funds are received by Lender if such receipt occurs by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such day, or (ii) on the next succeeding Business Day after such funds are received by Lender if such receipt occurs after 2:00 p.m. (New York time). Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day. (C) Manner of Payment; Application of Payments. The Borrowers promise to pay all of the Obligations relating to the Loan as such amounts become due or are declared due pursuant to the terms of this Loan Agreement. All payments by the Borrowers on the Loan shall be made without deduction, defense, set off or counterclaim and in immediately available funds delivered to Lender by wire transfer to such accounts at such banks as Lender may from time to time designate. Prior to an Event of Default, each payment shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.4(A) hereof and, to the extent sufficient funds are contained in the Lock Box Account, or an Account or Sub-Account thereof, to make the required monthly payments to the applicable Reserves and Sub-Accounts on such Payment Date, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to make such payments. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, payments shall be applied to the Obligations in such order as Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Section 2.5 Maturity. (A) Maturity Date. To the extent not sooner due and payable in accordance with the Loan Documents, the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (and including interest through the end of the Interest Accrual Period then in effect), and all other sums then owing to Lender hereunder and under the Note, the Deeds of Trust and the other Loan Documents, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. Section 2.6 Prepayment. (A) Limitation on Prepayment. The Borrowers shall have no right to prepay the Loan in whole or in part, except as expressly set forth in this Loan Agreement. (i) From and after the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, the Borrowers may prepay the Loan in whole, or in part, at any time, and (ii) if a partial prepayment is required to be made to cure a Default under Sections 8.1(E), 8.1(O) or 8.1(P), the Borrowers may prepay the Loan in part, at any time, provided that (x) the Borrowers shall provide to Lender not less than fifteen (15) days' prior written notice of such prepayment, (y) together with such prepayment the Borrowers also shall pay all accrued and unpaid interest and all other Obligations then due and owing, and (z) if such prepayment occurs on any day other than a Payment Date, then together therewith the Borrowers also shall pay to Lender the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount being prepaid from and including the date of such prepayment to the end of such Interest Accrual Period. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.4(C), all prepayments made under this Loan Agreement shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.4(A). (B) Yield Maintenance Due. If any prepayment of all or any portion of the Loan shall occur (including on account of acceleration of the Loan (whether or not due to an Event of Default) or otherwise), then except only as expressly provided in this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Borrowers shall pay the Yield Maintenance on the amount prepaid to Lender together with such prepayment, as liquidated damages (which shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Lender in connection with such prepayment) and compensation for costs incurred, and in addition to all other amounts due and owing to Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Yield Maintenance will be due as to a prepayment of the Loan on any Payment Date that occurs during the three (3) month period immediately preceding the Maturity Date (provided the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount being prepaid from and including the date of such prepayment through the following Payment Date shall be payable with such prepayment). The foregoing designation of any amount of Yield Maintenance in this Agreement shall not create a right to prepay at any time or in any circumstances where this Loan Agreement does not expressly state that such a right exists. "Yield Maintenance" means the excess, if any, of (x) the present value on the date of prepayment (by acceleration or otherwise) of all future installments of principal and interest that the Borrowers would otherwise be required to pay on that portion of the applicable Component prepaid from the date of such prepayment to and including the first Payment Date that is three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date absent such prepayment, assuming the entire unpaid Principal Amount of such Component is required to be paid on such Payment Date, with such present value being determined by the use of a discount rate equal to the sum of (a) the yield to maturity (adjusted to a "mortgage equivalent basis" pursuant to the standards and practices of the Securities Industry Association), on the date of such prepayment of the United States Treasury Security having the term to maturity closest to the first Payment Date that is three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date, plus (b) .50% over (y) that portion of the applicable Component prepaid on the date of such prepayment. Section 2.7 Outstanding Balance. The balance on Lender's books and records shall be presumptive evidence (absent manifest error) of the amounts owing to Lender by the Borrowers; provided that any failure to record any transaction affecting such balance or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect the Borrowers' obligation to pay the Obligations. Section 2.8 Taxes. Any and all payments or reimbursements made hereunder or under the Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all taxes, withholding taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto arising out of or in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto (excluding taxes imposed on net income in accordance with the following sentence) herein "Tax Liabilities"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not be liable for taxes imposed on the net income of Lender by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Lender is organized or doing business or any political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on its net income by the jurisdiction of Lender's applicable lending office or any political subdivision thereof. If the Borrowers shall be required by law to deduct any such Tax Liabilities (or amounts in estimation or reimbursement for the same) from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Lender, then the sum payable hereunder shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions, Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. Section 2.9 Reasonableness of Charges. The Borrower Parties agree that (i) the actual costs and damages that Lender would suffer by reason of an Event of Default (exclusive of the attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in connection with enforcement of Lender's rights under the Loan Documents) or a prepayment would be difficult and needlessly expensive to calculate and establish, and (ii) the amounts of the Default Rate, the late charges, and the Yield Maintenance are reasonable, taking into consideration the circumstances known to the parties at this time, and (iii) such Default Rate, late charges, Yield Maintenance, and Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with enforcement of Lender's rights under the Loan Documents shall be due and payable as provided herein, and (iv) such interest at the Default Rate, late charges, Yield Maintenance, and the obligation to pay Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and other enforcement costs do not, individually or collectively, constitute a penalty. Section 2.10 Servicing/Special Servicing. Lender may change the Servicer from time to time without the consent of the Borrowers, on prior written notice to the Borrowers. The Borrowers expressly acknowledge and agree that the Servicer's fees and Trustee's fees (to the extent not included in the Component Rate), and if the Loan becomes a specially serviced loan, any additional fees of the Servicer payable in connection therewith, and such additional trust fund expenses and fees, including any Rating Agency fees, as shall be incurred in connection with the Securitization (collectively, the "Servicing Fee") shall be payable by the Borrowers and shall constitute a portion of the Obligations; provided, however, that at no time shall the Borrowers be liable for Servicing Fees in excess of those fees charged to Lender. Lender shall provide a reasonably detailed statement of Servicing Fees for which the Borrowers are liable two (2) Business Days prior to the date when due; provided that failure to timely provide such statement shall not relieve the Borrowers from the obligation to pay all such Servicing Fees.

The Permitted Encumbrances, in the aggregate, do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Deeds of Trust and this Loan Agreement, materially and adversely affect the value of any of the Mortgaged Properties taken as a whole, impair the use or operations of the Mortgaged Properties or impair the Borrowers' ability to pay their respective obligations in a timely manner.

All permits, licenses and certificates for the lawful use, occupancy and operation of each component of each of the Properties given as Collateral hereunder in the manner in which it is currently being used, occupied and operated have been obtained and are current and in full force and effect, except to the extent failure to obtain any such permits, licenses or certificates would not, in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the Borrowers' Knowledge, (i) except as set forth on Schedule 4.6, no legal proceedings are pending or threatened with respect to the zoning of any Property and (ii) except as set forth in the Title Policies, neither the zoning nor any other right to construct, use or operate any Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any real estate other than such Property, except to the extent same would not, in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

To the Borrowers' Knowledge, each of the Leases is valid and binding on the parties thereto in accordance with its terms. (C) Management Agreement. The Borrowers have delivered to Lender a true and complete copy of the Management Agreement to which they are a party that will be in effect on the Closing Date, and such Management Agreement has not been modified or amended except pursuant to amendments or modifications delivered to Lender. The Management Agreement is in full force and effect and no default by any of the Borrowers or Manager exists thereunder. Section 4.8 Condition of the Properties.

(B) The Borrowers shall not be required to pay, discharge or remove any Imposition or Claim relating to a Property so long as the Borrowers contest in good faith such Imposition, Claim or the validity, applicability or amount thereof by an appropriate legal proceeding which operates to prevent the collection of such amounts and the sale of the applicable Property or any portion thereof, so long as: (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) prior to the date on which such Imposition or Claim would otherwise have become delinquent, the Borrowers shall have given Lender prior written notice of their intent to contest said Imposition or Claim and shall have deposited with Lender (or with a court of competent jurisdiction or other appropriate body reasonably approved by Lender) such additional amounts as are necessary to keep on deposit at all times, an amount by way of cash (or other form reasonably satisfactory to Lender), equal to (after giving effect to any Reserves then held by Lender for the item then subject to contest) at least one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the total of (x) the balance of such Imposition or Claim then remaining unpaid, and (y) all interest, penalties, costs and charges accrued or accumulated thereon; (iii) no risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of any interest in the applicable Property or any part thereof arises, in Lender's reasonable judgment, during the pendency of such contest; (iv) such contest does not, in Lender's reasonable determination, have a Material Adverse Effect; and (v) such contest is based on bona fide, material, and reasonable claims or defenses. Any such contest shall be prosecuted with due diligence, and the Borrowers shall promptly pay the amount of such Imposition or Claim as finally determined, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith. Lender shall have full power and authority, but no obligation, to apply any amount deposited with Lender to the payment of any unpaid Imposition or Claim to prevent the sale or forfeiture of the applicable Property for non-payment thereof, if Lender reasonably believes that such sale or forfeiture is threatened. Section 5.4 Maintenance of Insurance. The Borrowers will continuously maintain the following described policies of insurance without cost to Lender (the "Insurance Policies"): (i) Property insurance against loss and damage by all risks of physical loss or damage and other risks covered by the so-called extended coverage endorsement covering the Improvements and personal property on each of the Properties owned by any of the Borrowers, in amounts not less than the full insurable replacement value of all Improvements (less building foundations and footings) and personal property from time to time on the Properties and without sublimits, and bearing a replacement cost agreed-amount endorsement; (ii) Commercial general liability insurance, including death, bodily injury and broad form property damage coverage with a combined single limit in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) in the aggregate for any policy year; (iii) If any of the Properties (other than the Managed Properties) are in an area prone to geological phenomena, including, but not limited to, sinkholes, mine subsidence or earthquakes, insurance covering such risks in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the replacement value with a maximum permissible deductible of $10,000; (iv) For each Property (other than the Managed Properties) located in whole or in part in a federally designated "special flood hazard area", flood insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the maximum available amount and (y) the replacement cost of the Improvements and the Borrowers' personal property located on the applicable Property; (v) An umbrella excess liability policy with a limit of not less than Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000) over primary insurance, which policy shall include coverage for water damage, so-called assumed and contractual liability coverage, premises medical payment and automobile liability coverage, and coverage for safeguarding of personalty and shall also include such additional coverages and insured risks which are acceptable to Lender; (vi) Business interruption and/or rent loss insurance with an aggregate limit equal to six (6) months of gross income from the Properties plus continuing fixed costs for the Properties for a period of not less than six (6) months; (vii) Worker's Compensation Insurance in statutory amounts, if any, at all times; (viii) During any period of construction, repair or restoration, builders "all risk" insurance in an amount equal to not less than the full insurable value of the Properties applicable construction project; (ix) If the Properties (other than the Managed Properties), or any of them, are or become a "non-conforming use" under applicable zoning and building ordinances, or other requirements of the applicable Governmental Authority, law or ordinance coverage to compensate for the cost of demolition and the increased cost of construction, if available; (x) Such other insurance as may from time to time be reasonably required by Lender and which is then customarily required by institutional lenders for securitized loans secured by similar properties similarly situated, against other insurable hazards, including, but not limited to, malicious mischief, vandalism, windstorm and or earthquake, due regard to be given to the size and type of the Properties, Improvements, fixtures and equipment and their location, construction and use. Additionally, the Borrowers shall carry such insurance coverage as Lender may from time to time require if the failure to carry such insurance would result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of any class of securities issued in connection with a Securitization (or the placing of such certificate or other security on negative credit watch or ratings outlook in contemplation of any such action with respect thereto). All Insurance Policies shall be in content (including, without limitation, endorsements or exclusions, if any), form, and amounts, and issued by companies, satisfactory to Lender from time to time and shall name Lender and its successors and assignees as their interests may appear as an "additional insured" for each of the liability policies under this Section 5.4 hereof and shall (except for Worker's Compensation Insurance) contain a waiver of subrogation clause reasonably acceptable to Lender. All Insurance Policies under Sections 5.4 (i), (iv), (vi), and (vii) hereof with respect to the Mortgaged Properties shall contain a Non-Contributory Standard mortgagee clause and a mortgagee's Loss Payable Endorsement (Form 438 BFU NS), or their equivalents (such endorsements shall entitle Lender to collect any and all proceeds payable under all such insurance, with the insurance company waiving any claim or defense against Lender for premium payment, deductible, self-insured retention or claims reporting provisions). All Insurance Policies shall provide that the coverage shall not be modified without thirty (30) days' advance written notice to Lender and shall provide that no claims shall be paid thereunder to a Person other than Lender without ten (10) days' advance written notice to Lender. The Borrowers may obtain any insurance required by this Section through blanket policies; provided, however, that such blanket policies shall separately set forth the amount of insurance in force (together with applicable deductibles, and per occurrence limits) with respect to the Properties (which shall not be reduced by reason of events occurring on property other than the Properties) and shall afford all the protections to Lender as are required under this Section. Except as may be expressly provided above, all policies of insurance required hereunder shall contain no annual aggregate limit of liability, other than with respect to liability insurance. If a blanket policy is issued, a certified copy of said policy shall be furnished, together with a certificate indicating that Lender is an additional insured (and, if applicable, loss payee) under such policy in the designated amount. The Borrowers will deliver duplicate originals of all Insurance Policies, premium prepaid for a period of one (1) year, to Lender and, in case of Insurance Policies about to expire, the Borrowers will deliver duplicate originals of replacement policies satisfying the requirements hereof to Lender prior to the date of expiration; provided, however, if such replacement policy is not yet available, the Borrowers shall provide Lender with an insurance certificate executed by the insurer or its authorized agent evidencing that the insurance required hereunder is being maintained under such policy, which certificate shall be acceptable to Lender on an interim basis until the duplicate original of the policy is available. An insurance company shall not be satisfactory unless such insurance company (a) is licensed or authorized to issue insurance in the State where the applicable Property is located and (b) has a claims paying ability rating by the Rating Agencies of "A" (or its equivalent). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a carrier which does not meet the foregoing ratings requirement shall nevertheless be deemed acceptable hereunder provided that such carrier is reasonably acceptable to Lender and the Borrowers shall obtain and deliver to Lender a Rating Confirmation with respect to such carrier from each of the Rating Agencies. If any insurance coverage required under this Section 5.4 is maintained by a syndicate of insurers, the preceding ratings requirements shall be deemed satisfied (without any required Rating Confirmation) as long as at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the coverage (if there are four or fewer members of the syndicate) or at least sixty percent (60%) of the coverage (if there are five or more members of the syndicate) is maintained with carriers meeting the claims-paying ability ratings requirements by S&P and Moody's (if applicable) set forth above and all carriers in such syndicate have a claims-paying ability rating by S&P of not less than "BBB" and by Moody's of not less than "Baa2" (to the extent rated by Moody's). The Borrowers shall furnish Lender receipts for the payment of premiums on such insurance policies or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender in the event that such premiums have not been paid by Lender pursuant to the Loan Agreement. The requirements of this Section 5.4 shall apply to any separate policies of insurance taken out by the Borrowers concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with the Insurance Policies. Losses shall be payable to Lender notwithstanding (1) any act, failure to act or negligence of the Borrowers or their agents or employees, Lender or any other insured party which might, absent such agreement, result in a forfeiture or all or part of such insurance payment, other than the willful misconduct of Lender knowingly in violation of the conditions of such policy, (2) the occupation or use of the Properties or any part thereof for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of such policy, (3) any foreclosure or other action or proceeding taken pursuant to this Loan Agreement or (4) any change in title to or ownership of the Properties or any part thereof. The property insurance described in this Section 5.4 hereof shall include "underground hazards" coverage; "time element" coverage by which Lender shall be assured payment of all amounts due under the Note, this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents; "extra expense" (i.e., soft costs), clean-up, transit and ordinary payroll coverage; and "expediting expense" coverage to facilitate rapid repair or restoration of the Properties. The Insurance Policies shall not contain any deductible in excess of $250,000. Section 5.5 Operation and Maintenance of the Properties; Casualty; Condemnation. (A) The Borrowers shall maintain or cause to be maintained in good repair, working order and condition all material property necessary for use in the business of each Borrower, including the applicable Property, and will make or cause to be made all appropriate repairs, renewals and replacements thereof. All work required or permitted under this Loan Agreement shall be performed in a workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable laws. (B) (i) In the event of casualty or loss at any of the Properties, the Borrowers shall give immediate written notice of any such casualty or loss exceeding $250,000, or which is not covered by insurance, to the insurance carrier and to Lender and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion, in accordance with the terms hereof, the repair and restoration of the Property as nearly as possible to the Pre-Existing Condition, excluding replacement of obsolete Other Company Collateral which is not required in connection with operating the applicable Property (a "Restoration"). The Borrowers hereby authorize and empower Lender as attorney-in-fact for the Borrowers (jointly with the Borrowers unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), or any of them, with respect to Insurance Proceeds in excess of $1,000,000 to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claim under insurance policies, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such insurance policies, to collect and receive insurance proceeds (to be held in the Loss Proceeds Reserve Sub-Account pending the Borrowers' determination with respect to restoration of the affected Property as set forth in Subsection 5.5(C)), and to deduct therefrom Lender's expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds; provided however, that nothing contained in this Section shall require Lender to incur any expense or take any action hereunder. The Borrowers further authorize Lender, at Lender's option, with respect to proceeds in excess of $1,000,000 (a) to hold the balance of such proceeds to be used to reimburse the Borrowers for the cost of Restoration of any of the Properties or (b) subject to Subsection 5.5(C), to apply such Insurance Proceeds to payment of the Obligations whether or not then due, in any order. (ii) The Borrowers shall promptly give Lender written notice of any known actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding affecting the Properties or any portion thereof and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as the attorney-in-fact for the Borrowers (jointly with the Borrowers unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), or any of them, with respect to Condemnation Proceeds in excess of $1,000,000 to collect, receive and retain any Condemnation Proceeds (to be held in the Loss Proceeds Reserve Sub-Account pending the Borrowers' determination with respect to Restoration of the affected Property as set forth in Subsection 5.5(C)) and to make any compromise or settlement in connection with such proceeding. In accordance with the terms hereof, the Borrowers shall cause the Condemnation Proceeds in excess of $1,000,000 which are payable to the Borrowers, to be paid directly to Lender. If the applicable Property is sold following an Event of Default, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of Condemnation Proceeds, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive said Condemnation Proceeds, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers may prosecute any condemnation proceeding and settle or compromise and collect Condemnation Proceeds of not more than $1,000,000 provided that: (a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (b) in Lender's reasonable good faith judgment, such condemnation or taking does not and will not materially restrict access to the Properties or otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect and the Property remaining after such condemnation or taking is capable of being restored to an economically viable whole of substantially the same type which existed prior to the condemnation or taking or in substantial compliance with all applicable laws, (c) the Borrowers apply the Condemnation Proceeds to any reconstruction or repair of the Property necessary as a result of such condemnation or taking, and (d) the Borrowers promptly commence and diligently prosecute such reconstruction or repair to completion in accordance with all applicable laws. Subject to the terms hereof, the Borrowers authorize Lender to apply such Condemnation Proceeds, after the deduction of Lender's reasonable expenses incurred in the collection of such Condemnation Proceeds, at Lender's option, to restoration or repair of the Properties or to payment of the sums secured by this Mortgage, whether or not then due, in the order determined by Lender, with the balance, if any, to the Borrowers. Application of any Condemnation Proceeds to payment of the Obligations pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall be made with the required Yield Maintenance. Lender shall not exercise Lender's option to apply such Condemnation Proceeds to payment of the Obligations provided that each of the conditions (as applicable) to the release of Loss Proceeds for restoration or repair of the Properties under Section 5.5(C) below have been satisfied with respect to such condemnation awards or damages. (C) Lender shall not exercise Lender's option to apply Loss Proceeds to payment of the Obligations if all of the following conditions are met: (i) no Event of Default then exists; (ii) Lender reasonably determines that there will be sufficient funds to complete the Restoration of the Property to at least substantially to the condition it was in immediately prior to such casualty (excluding replacement of obsolete Other Company Collateral which is not required in connection with operating the applicable Property) and in compliance with applicable laws (the "Pre-Existing Condition") and to timely make all payments due under the Loan Documents during the Restoration of the affected Property; (iii) Lender reasonably determines that the Net Operating Income of the Properties (including rental income or business interruption insurance) will be sufficient to pay principal and interest on the Loan and Operating Revenues of the Properties, after the Restoration thereof to the Pre-Existing Condition, will be sufficient to meet all Operating Expenses, and payments for Reserves; and (iv) Lender determines that the Restoration of the affected Property to the Pre-Existing Condition will be completed not later than six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date. If Lender elects to apply Loss Proceeds to payment of the Obligations, such application shall be made on the Payment Date immediately following such election in accordance with the terms of the Cash Management Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Borrowers may, in their reasonable discretion, and within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Loss Proceeds, elect not to restore or replace a Property, in which event all Loss Proceeds held in the Loss Proceeds Reserve Sub-Account shall be applied to payment of the Obligations on the Payment Date immediately following such election with the required Yield Maintenance. (D) Lender shall not be obligated to disburse Loss Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month. If Loss Proceeds are applied to the payment of the Obligations, such application of Loss Proceeds to principal shall be with the applicable Yield Maintenance and shall not extend or postpone the due dates of the monthly payments due under the Note or otherwise under the Loan Documents, or change the amounts of such payments. If Lender elects to apply all of such insurance or condemnation proceeds toward the repayment of the Obligations, the Borrowers shall (subject to compliance with Section 11.4) be entitled to obtain from Lender a Property Release (without representation or warranty) of the applicable Property from the Lien of the Deed of Trust relating to such Property (in which event the Borrowers shall not be obligated to restore the applicable Property pursuant to Section 5.5(B) above) provided that the Borrowers pay to Lender (with the required Yield Maintenance) the amount, if any, by which the Release Price for such Property exceeds the Loss Proceeds received by Lender and applied to repayment of the Obligations. Any amount of Loss Proceeds remaining in Lender's possession after full and final payment and discharge of all Obligations shall be refunded to, or as directed by, the Borrowers or otherwise paid in accordance with applicable law. If the Property is sold at foreclosure or if Lender acquires title to the Property, Lender shall have all of the right, title and interest of the applicable Borrower in and to any Loss Proceeds and unearned premiums on Insurance Policies. (E) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of Loss Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Borrowers, less a retainage equal to the greater of (x) the actual retainage required pursuant to the permitted contract, or (y) ten percent (10%) of such costs incurred until the Restoration has been completed. The retainage shall in no event be less than the amount actually held back by the Borrowers from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The retainage shall not be released until Lender is reasonably satisfied that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.5 and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate governmental authorities, and Lender receives final lien waivers and such other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the retainage. Section 5.6 Inspection. Each Borrower shall permit any authorized representatives designated by Lender to visit and inspect during normal business hours its Properties and its business, including its financial and accounting records, and to make copies and take extracts therefrom and to discuss its affairs, finances and business with its officers and independent public accountants (with such Borrower's representative(s) present), at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably requested, provided that same is conducted in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the Borrowers' business. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall provide advance written notice of at least three (3) Business Days prior to visiting or inspecting any Property or such Borrower's offices. Section 5.7 Compliance with Laws and Contractual Obligations. The Borrowers will (A) comply with the requirements of all present and future applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any governmental authority in all jurisdictions in which it is now doing business or may hereafter be doing business, other than those laws, rules, regulations and orders the noncompliance with which collectively could not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, (B) maintain all licenses and permits now held or hereafter acquired by any Borrower, the loss, suspension, or revocation of which, or failure to renew, in the aggregate could have a Material Adverse Effect and (C) perform, observe, comply and fulfill all of its material obligations, covenants and conditions contained in any Contractual Obligation. Section 5.8 Further Assurances. The Borrowers shall, from time to time, execute and/or deliver such documents, instruments, agreements, financing statements, and perform such acts as Lender at any time may reasonably request to evidence, preserve and/or protect the Collateral at any time securing or intended to secure the Obligations and/or to better and more effectively carry out the purposes of this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Section 5.9 Performance of Agreements and Leases. Each Borrower Party shall duly and punctually perform, observe and comply in all material respects with all of the terms, provisions, conditions, covenants and agreements on its part to be performed, observed and complied with (i) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, (ii) under all Material Agreements and Leases and (iii) all other agreements entered into or assumed by such Person in connection with the Properties, and will not suffer or permit any material default or event of default (giving effect to any applicable notice requirements and cure periods) to exist under any of the foregoing except where the failure to perform, observe or comply with any agreement referred to in this clause (iii) would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Borrowers shall be permitted to terminate any Site Management Agreement which the Borrowers reasonably deem necessary in accordance with prudent business practices, provided that (i) the Borrowers provide written notice to Lender of such determination not later than thirty (30) days prior to such termination, (ii) together with such notice the Borrowers provide supporting information reasonably acceptable to Lender that following such termination the DSCR will be equal to or greater than the DSCR immediately prior to such termination, (iii) if (1) the aggregate Allocated Loan Amount with respect to (x) each such Property for which termination has occurred under this Section 5.9, Section 5.23(A), and Section 5.24(A), and (y) the Property for which a termination is proposed, is greater than five percent (5%) of the Principal Amount of the Loan at Closing, or (2) at least seventy-eight percent (78%) of the Operating Revenues of the Properties that remain following a proposed termination do not consist of telephony revenues, the Borrowers have delivered a Rating Confirmation, and (iv) following such termination, such Property will be owned and managed by a Person other than the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates. In connection with any sale permitted pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.9, the Borrowers may sell any Other Company Collateral associated with the applicable Property and no longer required in connection with the operation of the Borrowers' business. Section 5.10 Leases. Any Rents which constitute Advance Rents Reserve Deposits shall be deposited into the Advance Rents Reserve Sub-Account to be applied in accordance with the Cash Management Agreement. The Borrowers, at Lender's request, shall furnish Lender with executed copies of all Leases hereafter made. Each new Lease other than (x) the addition of new sites pursuant to existing master Leases, or (y) Governmental Leases) shall specifically provide that such Lease (i) is subordinate to the Deeds of Trust, provided that Lender agrees not to disturb the applicable Tenant's possession for so long as Tenant is not in default under the terms of the applicable lease (as evidenced by an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E (an "SNDA"); (ii) that the tenant attorns to Lender; (iii) that the attornment of the tenant shall not be terminated by foreclosure; and (iv) that in no event shall Lender, as holder of the Deeds of Trust or as successor landlord, be liable to the tenant for any act or omission of any prior landlord or for any liability or obligation of any prior landlord occurring prior to the date that Lender or any subsequent owner acquires title to the Property. On the Closing Date and at such other times as shall be required by applicable law (including upon replacement of the Manager), Lender shall execute a power of attorney (in the form of Exhibit F) enabling Manager (on behalf of Lender) to execute SNDAs in the form of Exhibit E (with the appropriate information completed therein) without any material changes being made to the form. Section 5.11 Management Agreement. (A) The Borrowers shall cause Manager to manage the Properties in accordance with the Management Agreement. The Borrowers shall (i) perform and observe all of the material terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of each Borrower to be performed and observed, (ii) promptly notify Lender of any notice to any of the Borrowers of any material default under the Management Agreement of which it is aware, and (iii) prior to termination of the Manager in accordance with Section 5.11(C) hereof, Borrower shall renew the Management Agreement prior to each expiration date thereunder in accordance with its terms. If any of the Borrowers shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the Management Agreement on the part of the Borrowers to be performed or observed, then, without limiting Lender's other rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and without waiving or releasing the Borrowers from any of their obligations hereunder or under the Management Agreement, Lender shall have the right, upon prior written notice to the Borrowers, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act as may be reasonably appropriate to cause such material conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of the Borrowers to be performed or observed. (B) The Borrowers shall not surrender, terminate, cancel, or modify (other than non-material changes), the Management Agreement, or enter into any other Management Agreement with any new Manager (other than an Acceptable Manager), or consent to the assignment by the Manager of its interest under the Management Agreement, in each case without delivery of Rating Confirmations from each of the Rating Agencies and written consent of the Lender. If at any time Lender consents to the appointment of a new Manager, or if an Acceptable Manager shall become the Manager, such new Manager, or the Acceptable Manager, as the case may be, and the Borrowers shall, as a condition of Lender's consent, or with respect to an Acceptable Manager, prior to commencement of its duties as Manager, execute a subordination of management agreement in substantially the form delivered in connection with the closing of the Loan. (C) Lender shall have the right to require that the Manager be replaced with a Person chosen by the Borrowers (or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Lender) and reasonably acceptable to Lender, upon the earliest to occur of any one or more of the following events: (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, (ii) thirty (30) days after notice from Lender to the Borrowers if Manager has engaged in fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct arising from or in connection with its performance under the Management Agreement, (iii) thirty (30) days after notice from Lender to the Borrowers if the DSCR is less than 1.0:1 and Lender reasonably determines that such decline in the DSCR is primarily attributable to acts or omissions of the Manager rather than factors affecting the Borrowers' industry generally, or (iv) Manager defaults under the Management Agreement, such default is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, and such default remains unremedied for thirty (30) days following written notice to Manager. Section 5.12 Reserved. Section 5.13 Deposits; Application of Receipts. The Borrowers will deposit all Receipts into, and otherwise comply with, the Accounts established from time to time hereunder.

Compliance by Lender with the requirements of this Section shall be for informational purposes only and shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights or remedies of Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document. Section 5.15 Indebtedness. The Borrowers will not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume, guaranty, or otherwise become or remain directly or indirectly liable with respect to any Indebtedness except for the following (collectively, "Permitted Indebtedness"): (A) The Obligations; (B) (i) Unsecured trade payables not evidenced by a note and arising out of purchases of goods or services in the ordinary course of business and (ii) Indebtedness incurred in the financing of equipment or other personal property used at any Property in the ordinary course of business, provided that (a) each such trade payable is payable not later than ninety (90) days after the original invoice date and is not overdue by more than thirty (30) days, and (b) the aggregate amount of such trade payables and Indebtedness relating to financing of equipment and personal property or otherwise referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above outstanding does not, at any time, exceed $15,000,000.

The Borrowers shall not make any payment or permit any payment to be made on behalf of the Borrowers to any Related Person of any of the Borrowers when or as to any time when any Event of Default shall exist except as may be permitted by Lender pursuant to the terms of the Cash Management Agreement.

As used in this Loan Agreement, an "Involuntary Borrower Bankruptcy" shall mean any involuntary case under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, in which any of the Borrowers is a debtor or any portion of the Properties is property of the estate therein. The Borrowers shall not file a petition for, consent to the filing of a petition for, or aid, solicit, support, or otherwise act, cooperate or collude to cause the filing of a petition for an Involuntary Borrower Bankruptcy. In any Involuntary Borrower Bankruptcy, no Borrower Party shall, without the prior written consent of Lender, consent to the entry of any order, file any motion, or support any motion (irrespective of the subject of the motion), and the Borrowers shall not file or support any plan of reorganization. The Borrowers having any interest in any Involuntary Borrower Bankruptcy shall do all things reasonably requested by Lender to assist Lender in obtaining such relief as Lender shall seek, and shall in all events vote as directed by Lender.

(C) Notice of Default. If any of the Borrowers shall have or receive any written notice that any Ground Lease Default has occurred, then the Borrowers immediately shall notify Lender in writing of the same and immediately deliver to Lender a true and complete copy of each such notice. Further, the Borrowers shall provide such documents and information as Lender shall reasonably request concerning the Ground Lease Default. (D) Lender's Right to Cure. If any Ground Lease Default shall occur and be continuing, or if any Ground Lessor asserts that a Ground Lease Default has occurred (whether or not the Borrowers question or deny such assertion), then, subject to (i) the terms and conditions of the applicable Ground Lease, and (ii) the Borrowers' right to terminate Ground Leases in accordance with Section 5.23(A) hereof, Lender, upon five (5) Business Days' prior written notice to the Borrowers, unless Lender reasonably determines that a shorter period (or no period) of notice is necessary to protect Lender's interest in the Ground Lease, may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action that Lender deems reasonably necessary, including, without limitation, (i) performance or attempted performance of the applicable Borrower's obligations under the applicable Ground Lease, (ii) curing or attempting to cure any actual or purported Ground Lease Default, (iii) mitigating or attempting to mitigate any damages or consequences of the same and (iv) entry upon the applicable Ground Leased Property for any or all of such purposes.

(E) Legal Action. The Borrowers shall not commence any action or proceeding against any Ground Lessor or affecting or potentially affecting any Ground Lease or the Borrowers' or Lender's interest therein, the effect of which could cause an event of default or termination of any such Ground Lease, without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Borrowers shall notify Lender immediately if any action or proceeding shall be commenced between any Ground Lessor and any Borrower, or affecting or potentially affecting any Ground Lease or any Borrower's or Lender's interest therein (including, without limitation, any case commenced by or against any Ground Lessor under the Bankruptcy Code). Lender shall have the option, exercisable upon notice from Lender to the Borrowers, to participate in any such action or proceeding with counsel of Lender's choice. The Borrowers shall cooperate with Lender, comply with the reasonable instructions of Lender, execute any and all powers, authorizations, consents or other documents reasonably required by Lender in connection therewith, and shall not settle any such action or proceeding without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. (F) Bankruptcy. (i) If any Ground Lessor shall reject any Ground Lease under or pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Borrowers shall not elect to treat the Ground Lease as terminated but shall elect to remain in possession of the applicable Ground Leased Property and the leasehold estate under such Ground Lease. The lien of the Deed of Trust covering such Property does and shall encumber and attach to all of the Borrowers' rights and remedies at any time arising under or pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, including without limitation, all of such Borrower's rights to remain in possession of such Property and the leasehold estate. (ii) The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that in any case commenced by or against the Borrowers under the Bankruptcy Code, Lender by reason of the liens and rights granted under the Deed of Trust covering such Property and the Loan Documents shall have a substantial and material interest in the treatment and preservation of such Borrower's rights and obligations under such Ground Lease, and that such Borrower shall, in any such bankruptcy case, provide to Lender immediate and continuous reasonably adequate protection of such interests. Each Borrower and Lender agree that such adequate protection shall include but shall not necessarily be limited to the following: (a) Lender shall be deemed a party to the Ground Lease (but shall not have any obligations thereunder) for purposes of Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and shall, provided that, prior to an Event of Default, no such action by Lender would adversely and materially affect the Borrowers' ability to prosecute, or defend, any such claims asserted therein, have standing to appear and act as a party in interest in relation to any matter arising out of or related to the Ground Lease or such Property. (b) The Borrowers shall serve Lender with copies of all notices, pleadings and other documents relating to or affecting the Ground Lease or the applicable Property. Any notice, pleading or document served by the Borrowers on any other party in the bankruptcy case shall be contemporaneously served by such Borrower on Lender, and any notice, pleading or document served upon or received by such Borrower from any other party in the bankruptcy case shall be served by such Borrower on Lender promptly upon receipt by such Borrower. (c) Upon written request of Lender, the Borrowers shall assume the Ground Lease, and shall take such steps as are necessary to preserve such Borrower's right to assume the Ground Lease, including without limitation using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain extensions of time to assume or reject the Ground Lease under Subsection 365(d) of the Bankruptcy Code to the extent it is applicable. (G) If the Borrowers or the applicable Ground Lessor seeks to reject any Ground Lease or have the Ground Lease deemed rejected, then prior to the hearing on such rejection Lender shall, subject to applicable law, be given no less than twenty (20) days' notice and opportunity to elect in lieu of rejection to have the Ground Lease assumed and assigned to a nominee of Lender. If Lender shall so elect to assume and assign the Ground Lease, then the Borrowers shall, subject to applicable law, continue any request to reject the Ground Lease until after the motion to assume and assign has been heard. If Lender shall not elect to assume and assign the Ground Lease, then Lender may, subject to applicable law, obtain in connection with the rejection of the Ground Lease a determination that the applicable Ground Lessor, at Lender's option, shall (1) agree to terminate the Ground Lease and enter into a new lease with Lender on the same terms and conditions as the Ground Lease, for the remaining term of the Ground Lease, or (2) treat the Ground Lease as breached and provide Lender with the rights to cure defaults under the Ground Lease and to assume the rights and benefits of the Ground Lease. Each Borrower shall join with and support any request by Lender to grant and approve the foregoing as necessary for adequate protection of Lender's interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender may seek additional terms and conditions, including such economic and monetary protections as it deems reasonably appropriate to adequately protect its interests, and any request for such additional terms or conditions shall not delay or limit Lender's right to receive the specific elements of adequate protection set forth herein. Each Borrower hereby appoints Lender as its attorney in fact to act on behalf of Lender in connection with all matters relating to or arising out of the assumption or rejection of any Ground Lease, in which the other party to the lease is a debtor in a case under the Bankruptcy Code. This grant of power of attorney is present, unconditional, irrevocable, durable and coupled with an interest. Section 5.24 Easements. (A) Modification.

Lender shall also have received copies of the closing statements for such Acquisition showing that all premiums in respect of such endorsements and Title Policies (or signed pro-formas) shall have been paid as of the closing of such Acquisition; (c) valid certificates of insurance indicating that the requirements for the Insurance Policies required hereunder have been satisfied with respect to each Acquisition Property and evidence of the payment of all premiums payable for the existing policy period by including such premium on the closing statement for such Acquisition; (d) payment or reimbursement to Lender to the extent invoiced of all reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by Lender (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements) in connection with such Acquisition, and all recording charges, filing fees, taxes or other expenses (including, without limitation, mortgage and intangibles taxes and documentary stamp taxes) payable in connection with the applicable Deeds of Trust shall have been paid; (e) evidence that each Acquisition Property that is an Owned Property acquired in such Acquisition constitutes a separate tax lot; (f) if such Acquisition consists of the acquisition of the Capital Stock of any Person, in addition to the foregoing deliveries, the Borrowers shall have delivered (i) a Rating Confirmation, (ii) an assumption and joinder agreement in the form of Exhibit G executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the applicable Borrower, and (iii) good standing certificates from the applicable jurisdiction of formation for such Person (together with such resolutions and other evidence of corporate, limited liability company or partnership action, as applicable, as shall be required to complete the Acquisition); (g) an amendment to Exhibit A hereto reflecting the Allocated Loan Amount for each Acquisition Property which shall be equal to the Cash Purchase Price for the applicable Acquisition funded from the Acquisition Reserve multiplied by the quotient (expressed as a percentage) of (x) Annualized Run Rate Net Cash Flow of the applicable Property divided by (y) Annualized Run Rate Net Cash Flow of all Qualifying Acquisition Properties acquired in such Acquisition; provided that the Allocated Loan Amount for any Properties that are not Qualifying Acquisition Properties shall be $0.00; and (h) evidence that, with respect to all New Properties, after giving effect to such Acquisition, (x) the average remaining term (including all available extensions) of the Ground Leases for such Properties (taken as a whole) is equal to or greater than fifteen (15) years, and (y) at least eighty percent (80%) of the Operating Revenues generated by such Properties (taken as a whole) comes from telephony tenants.

(E) Format for Notices/Deliveries. All notices and deliveries required pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.5 may be provided by (i) electronic delivery, (ii) access to a dedicated electronic documentation web-based site (provided that confirmation of such access together with any required access code is delivered to Lender within the time periods provided herein), or (iii) as provided pursuant to Section 14.5 hereof (which may include delivery in digital media form). Section 6.6 Reserved. Section 6.7 Reserved. Section 6.8 Cash Trap Reserve. If a Cash Trap Event shall occur, then, from and after the date that it is determined that a Cash Trap Event has occurred (which shall be based upon the financial reporting required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(A)(iv)) and for so long as such Cash Trap Event continues to exist, all Excess Cash Flow (except as otherwise expressly provided below) shall be deposited with Lender (or its Servicer or agent) and held in the Lock Box Account in accordance with the terms of the Cash Management Agreement (said funds, together with any interest thereon, the "Cash Trap Reserve"). A "Cash Trap Event" shall occur as of the last day of any calendar quarter when the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is equal to or less than the Cash Trap DSCR, and shall continue to exist until such time as the Debt Service Coverage Ratio exceeds the Cash Trap DSCR for two (2) consecutive calendar quarters. If as of the last day of any calendar quarter the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than the Minimum DSCR, Lender will apply any amounts in the Cash Trap Reserve to payment of the Loan on the next Payment Date (including any required Yield Maintenance). Any funds on deposit in the Cash Trap Reserve shall continue to be held as additional Collateral in accordance with this Section 6.8. Provided that no Event of Default exists and the Cash Trap DSCR test has been satisfied for two (2) consecutive calendar quarters (as determined above), any funds remaining in the Cash Trap Reserve shall be released to the Borrowers. The existence of a Cash Trap Event shall be determined by Lender in its reasonable good faith determination. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, during the continuance of an Event of Default all funds on deposit in the Cash Trap Reserve and any subsequent Excess Cash Flow may be applied by Lender to payment of the Loan (including payment of Yield Maintenance, if any) or other Obligations as Lender may elect. ARTICLE VII DEPOSIT ACCOUNT; LOCK BOX ACCOUNT; CASH MANAGEMENT Section 7.1 Establishment of Deposit Account and Lock Box Account. (A) (i) Deposit Account. On or before the Closing Date, and prior to the completion of any Acquisition, one or more deposit accounts, which shall be Eligible Accounts, shall be established at the Borrowers' sole cost and expense in the name of Lender, as secured party hereunder (said accounts, and any accounts replacing same in accordance with this Loan Agreement and the Deposit Account Agreement, collectively, the "Deposit Account") with one or more financial institutions reasonably approved by Lender (collectively, the "Deposit Bank"), pursuant to one or more agreements (collectively, the "Deposit Account Agreement") substantially similar to Lender's form or otherwise in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, executed and delivered by the Borrowers and the Deposit Bank. The Deposit Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender (which dominion and control may be exercised by Servicer). Among other things, the Deposit Account Agreement shall provide that the Borrowers shall have no access to or control over the Deposit Account, that all available funds on deposit in the Deposit Account shall be transferred by wire transfer (or transfer via the ACH System) on each Monday, Wednesday and Friday of each calendar week (or if such day is not a Business day, the next such day that is a Business Day) by the Deposit Bank into the Lock Box Account, for application in accordance with the Cash Management Agreement.

(ii) Each Tenant occupying space at the Properties shall be, or has been, instructed, by irrevocable written direction, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, to pay all Rents and other amounts owed to Borrower directly to the Deposit Account, unless Lender shall otherwise direct in writing. The Borrowers shall, or shall cause Manager to, send direction letters to each Tenant until each such Tenant commences paying all required amounts to the Deposit Account, and, if any Tenant ceases to pay such amounts to the Deposit Account for three (3) consecutive months, shall send additional direction letters to the applicable Tenant, until such Tenant complies with such irrevocable written directions. The Borrowers shall cause any and all other Receipts to be deposited promptly into the Deposit Account and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof by the Borrowers or Manager.

(iii) The Borrowers shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the transactions and other matters contemplated by this Section 7.1, including but not limited to, Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, and all reasonable fees and expenses of the Deposit Bank and the Lock Box Account Bank, including without limitation their reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. (B) Lock Box Account. On or before the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Cash Management Agreement, an Eligible Account shall be established in the name of Lender, as secured party hereunder, to serve as the "Lock Box Account" (said account, and any account replacing the same in accordance with this Loan Agreement and the Cash Management Agreement, the "Lock Box Account"; and the depositary institution in which the Lock Box Account is maintained, the "Lock Box Account Bank"). The Lock Box Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender (which dominion and control may be exercised by Servicer); and except as expressly provided hereunder or in the Cash Management Agreement, the Borrowers shall not have the right to control or direct the investment or payment of funds therein during the continuance of an Event of Default. Lender may elect to change any financial institution in which the Lock Box Account shall be maintained if such institution is no longer an Eligible Bank, upon not less than five (5) Business Days' notice to the Borrower. The Lock Box Account shall be deemed to contain such sub-accounts as Lender may designate ("Sub-Accounts"), which may be maintained as separate ledger accounts and need not be separate Eligible Accounts. The Sub-Accounts shall include the following as more particularly described in the Cash Management Agreement: (i) "Debt Service Sub-Account" shall mean the Sub-Account of the Lock Box Account established for the purposes of reserving for payments of principal and interest and other amounts due under the Loan Documents (but without duplication of amounts covered under item (ii) below); and (ii) "Reserve Sub-Accounts" shall mean the Sub-Accounts of the Lock Box Account established for the purpose of holding funds in the Reserves including: (a) the "Imposition and Insurance Reserve Sub-Account", (b) the "Cash Trap Reserve Sub-Account", (c) the "Advance Rents Reserve Sub-Account", and (d) the "Loss Proceeds Reserve Sub-Account".

Funds in the Lock Box Account shall be allocated to the Sub-Accounts or the other Accounts (or paid, as the case may be) in accordance with the Cash Management Agreement. Section 7.3 Application of Funds After Event of Default. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section or elsewhere, Lender shall have all rights and remedies available under applicable law and under the Loan Documents. Without limitation of the foregoing, for so long as an Event of Default exists, Lender may apply any and all Receipts in the Deposit Account, the Lock Box Account, the Cash Trap Reserve Sub-Account, the Acquisition Reserve and any other Accounts or Sub-Accounts against all or any portion of any of the Obligations, in any order.

Any representation, warranty, certification or other statement made by any Borrower, Guarantor or Manager in any Loan Document or in any statement or certificate at any time given in writing pursuant to or in connection with any Loan Document is false as of the date made and such breach is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, provided that such breach shall not constitute an Event of Default if within forty-five (45) days of the Borrowers' Knowledge thereof (or such longer period as may be consented to by Lender), the Borrowers' take such action as may be required to make such representation, warranty, certification or other statement to be true as made, which may include removing the affected Property by effectuating a Release, Substitution or Other Property Substitution subject to the terms of Section 11.4, Section 11.5 or Section 11.6, respectively; or (F) Other Defaults Under Loan Documents. A default shall occur in the performance of or compliance with any term contained in this Loan Agreement (other than a default already described in another subsection of this Section 8.1) or the other Loan Documents and such default is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and such default is not fully cured within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Borrowers of written notice from Lender of such default; provided however that if (i) the default is capable of cure but with diligence cannot be cured within such period of thirty (30) days, (ii) the Borrowers (or the applicable Borrower Party) has commenced the cure within such thirty (30) day period and has pursued such cure diligently, and (iii) each Borrower delivers to Lender promptly following written demand (which demand may be made from time to time by Lender) evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of the foregoing, then such period shall be extended for so long as is reasonably necessary for the Borrowers in the exercise of due diligence to cure such default, but in no event beyond one hundred and twenty (120) days after the original notice of default; or (G) Involuntary Bankruptcy; Appointment of Receiver, etc. (i) A court enters a decree or order for relief with respect to any Borrower Party in an Involuntary Borrower Bankruptcy, or Manager in a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law where Manager is a debtor, which decree or order is not stayed or other similar relief is not granted under any applicable federal or state law unless dismissed within ninety (90) days; (ii) the occurrence and continuance of any of the following events for ninety (90) days unless dismissed or discharged within such time: (x) an Involuntary Borrower Bankruptcy is commenced, (y) a decree or order of a court for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, sequestrator, trustee, custodian or other officer having similar powers over any Borrower Party, Manager or over all or a substantial part of its or their property, is entered, or (z) an interim receiver, trustee or other custodian is appointed without the consent of any Borrower Party or Manager, applicable, for all or a substantial part of the property of such Person; or (H) Voluntary Bankruptcy; Appointment of Receiver, etc. (i) An order for relief is entered with respect to any Borrower Party or Manager, or any Borrower Party or Manager commences a voluntary case under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or consents to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case or to the conversion of an involuntary case to a voluntary case under any such law or consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, trustee or other custodian for any Borrower Party or Manager, or for all or a substantial part of the property of any Borrower Party or Manager; (ii) any Borrower Party or Manager makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (iii) the Board of Directors or other governing body of any Borrower Party or Manager adopts any resolution or otherwise authorizes action to approve any of the actions referred to in this subsection 8.1(H); or (I) Bankruptcy Involving Ownership Interests or Properties.

Any Borrower Party or Manager ceases to be solvent or admits in writing its present or prospective inability to pay its debts as they become due; or (K) Judgment and Attachments. Any lien, money judgment, writ or warrant of attachment, or similar process is entered or filed against any Borrower Party or any of its assets which claim is not fully covered by insurance (other than with respect to the amount of commercially reasonable deductibles permitted hereunder), would have a Material Adverse Effect and remains undischarged, unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of forty-five (45) days; or (L) Injunction. The Borrowers are enjoined, restrained or in any way prevented by the order of any court or any administrative or regulatory agency from conducting all or any material part of their business and such order continues for more than thirty (30) days; or (M) Invalidity of Loan Documents. This Loan Agreement, any Deed of Trust or any of the Loan Documents for any reason ceases to be in full force and effect or ceases to be a legally valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Borrowers or any Lien securing the Obligations shall, in whole or in part, cease to be a perfected first priority Lien, subject to the Permitted Encumbrances (except in any of the foregoing cases in accordance with the terms hereof or under any other Loan Document) which is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, and the Borrowers do not take all actions requested by Lender to correct such defect within ten (10) days after the written request by Lender to take such action, or any Person under the control of the Borrowers or Guarantor who is a party thereto, other than Lender, denies that it has any further liability (as distinguished from denial of the existence of a Default or Event of Default) under any Loan Documents to which it is party, or gives notice to such effect; or (N) Default under Management Agreement. Any breach or default shall occur in the material obligations of the Borrowers under the Management Agreement, and such breach or default either is of such a nature or continues for such a period of time beyond applicable notice and cure periods, if any, that Manager shall have the right to exercise material remedies as a consequence thereof; or (O) Ground Lease. Any default by any of the Borrowers beyond any applicable grace period shall occur under any Ground Lease and the Borrowers have not effectuated a Release or Substitution of such affected Property within forty-five (45) days of the expiration of such grace period or, subject to Section 5.23 or Section 11.5 hereof, any actual or attempted surrender, termination, modification or amendment of any Ground Lease without Lender's prior written consent; or (P) Easements. Any default by any of the Borrowers beyond any applicable grace period shall occur under any Easement and the Borrowers have not effectuated a Release or Substitution of such affected Property within forty-five (45) days of the expiration of such grace period or, subject to Section 5.24 or Section 11.5 hereof, any actual or attempted surrender, termination, modification or amendment of any Easement without Lender's prior written consent. If more than one of the foregoing paragraphs shall describe the same condition or event, then Lender shall have the right to select which paragraph or paragraphs shall apply. In any such case, Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to designate the paragraph or paragraphs which provide for non-written notice (or for no notice) or for a shorter time to cure (or for no time to cure). Section 8.2 Acceleration and Remedies. (A) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default described in any of Subsections 8.1(G), 8.1(H), or 8.1(I), the unpaid principal amount of and accrued interest and fees on the Loan and all other Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers. Upon and at any time after the occurrence of any other Event of Default, at the option of Lender, which may be exercised without notice or demand to anyone, all or any portion of the Loan and other Obligations shall immediately become due and payable. (B) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against the Borrowers under this Loan Agreement (including Article X hereof) or any of the other Loan Documents, or at law or in equity, may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Obligations shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to the Properties. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing (i) to the fullest extent permitted by law, Lender shall not be subject to any "one action" or "election of remedies" law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against each Property and the Deeds of Trust have been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Obligations or the Obligations have been paid in full. (C) Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Deeds of Trust in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Deeds of Trust then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event the Borrowers default beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Deed of Trust to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose the Deed of Trust or any of them to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Deed of Trust as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Deed of Trust to secure payment of sums secured by the Deed of Trust and not previously recovered. (D) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. The Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, within ten (10) days after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall reasonably request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. The Borrowers hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoint Lender as their true and lawful attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, in their name and stead to make and execute all documents reasonably necessary to effect the aforesaid severance if the Borrowers fail to do so within ten (10) days of Lender's written request, the Borrowers ratifying all that their said attorney-in-fact shall do by virtue thereof. (E) Any amounts recovered from the Properties or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine. (F) The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Loan Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against the Borrowers pursuant to this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender's rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender's sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to the Borrowers shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by the Borrowers or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Section 8.3 Performance by Lender. (A) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if any of the Borrowers shall fail to perform, or cause to be performed, any material covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents (subject to applicable notice and cure periods), Lender may perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrowers including making protective advances on behalf of any Borrower, or, in its sole discretion, causing the obligations of any of the Borrowers to be satisfied with the proceeds of any Reserve. In such event, the Borrowers shall, at the request of Lender, promptly pay to Lender, or reimburse, as applicable, any of the Reserves, any actual amount reasonably expended or disbursed by Lender in such performance or attempted performance, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate (including reimbursement of any applicable Reserves), from the date of such expenditure or disbursement, until paid. Any amounts advanced or expended by Lender to perform or attempt to perform any such matter shall be added to and included within the indebtedness evidenced by the applicable Note and shall be secured by all of the Collateral securing the applicable Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly agreed that Lender shall not have any liability or responsibility for the performance of any obligation of the Borrowers under this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, and it is further expressly agreed that no such performance by Lender shall cure any Event of Default hereunder. (B) Lender may cease or suspend any and all performance required of Lender under the Loan Documents upon and at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default. Section 8.4 Evidence of Compliance.

To the extent that any of the Borrowers (in this Article, a "Waiving Party") is deemed for any reason to be a guarantor or surety of or for any other Borrower Party or Affiliate or to have rights or obligations in the nature of the rights or obligations of a guarantor or surety (whether by reason of execution of a guaranty, provision of security for the obligations of another, or otherwise) then this Article shall apply. This Article shall not affect the rights of the Waiving Party other than to waive or limit rights and defenses that Waiving Party would have (i) in its capacity as a guarantor or surety or (ii) in its capacity as one having rights or obligations in the nature of a guarantor or surety. Waiving Party hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of receivership or bankruptcy of any of the other Borrower Parties, protest or notice with respect to any of the obligations of any of the other Borrower Parties, setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance, the benefits of all statutes of limitation, and all other demands whatsoever (and shall not require that the same be made on any of the other Borrower Parties as a condition precedent to the obligations of Waiving Party), and covenants that the Loan Documents will not be discharged, except by complete payment and performance of the obligations evidenced and secured thereby, except only as limited by the express contractual provisions of the Loan Documents. Waiving Party further waives all notices that the principal amount, or any portion thereof, and/or any interest on any instrument or document evidencing all or any part of the obligations of any of the other Borrower Parties to Lender is due, notices of any and all proceedings to collect from any of the other Borrower Parties or any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of their obligations, or from any other person or entity, and, to the extent permitted by law, notices of exchange, sale, surrender or other handling of any security or collateral given to Lender to secure payment of all or any part of the obligations of any of the other Borrower Parties. Except only to the extent provided otherwise in the express contractual provisions of the Loan Documents, Waiving Party hereby agrees that all of its obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect, without defense, offset or counterclaim of any kind, notwithstanding that any right of Waiving Party against any of the other Borrower Parties or defense of Waiving Party against Lender may be impaired, destroyed, or otherwise affected by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Lender. Waiving Party waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Lender, even though that election of remedies, may have destroyed the Waiving Party's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the other Borrower Parties. Lender is hereby authorized, without notice or demand, from time to time, (a) to renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, all or any part of the obligations of any of the other Borrower Parties; (b) to accept partial payments on all or any part of the obligations of any of the other Borrower Parties; (c) to take and hold security or collateral for the payment of all or any part of the obligations of any of the other Borrower Parties; (d) to exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral for such obligations; (e) to apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in its discretion it may determine; (f) to settle, release, exchange, enforce, waive, compromise or collect or otherwise liquidate all or any part of such obligations and any security or collateral for such obligations. Any of the foregoing may be done in any manner, and Waiving Party agrees that the same shall not affect or impair the obligations of Waiving Party under the Loan Documents. Waiving Party hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of all of the other Borrower Parties and any and all endorsers and/or other guarantors of all or any part of the obligations of the other Borrower Parties, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of such obligations, and Waiving Party hereby agrees that Lender shall have no duty to advise Waiving Party of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstances. Waiving Party agrees that neither Lender nor any person or entity acting for or on behalf of Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Waiving Party or against or in payment of any or all of the obligations secured hereby. Waiving Party further agrees that, to the extent that any of the other Borrower Parties or any other guarantor of all or any part of the obligations of the other Borrower Parties makes a payment or payments to Lender, or Lender receives any proceeds of collateral for any of the obligations of the other Borrower Parties, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid or refunded, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the part of such obligations which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the time immediately preceding such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction. Waiving Party (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to the obligations of the other Borrower Parties; (ii) waives any right to enforce any remedy that Lender now has or may hereafter have against any of the other Borrower Parties any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of such obligations or any other person; and (iii) waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to Lender to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of such obligations or any other liability of the other parties to Lender. Waiving Party agrees that any and all claims that it may have against any of the other Borrower Parties, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the obligations of the other Borrower Parties, or against any of their respective properties, shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all obligations secured hereby. Notwithstanding any right of any of the Waiving Party to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from the other Borrower Parties, all rights, liens and security interests of Waiving Party, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any of the other Borrower Parties (whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to Lender to secure payment of all or any part of the obligations of the other Borrower Parties or otherwise) shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights of Lender in those assets. ARTICLE XIV MISCELLANEOUS Section 14.1 Expenses and Attorneys' Fees. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Borrowers agree to promptly pay all reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any matters contemplated by or arising out of this Loan Agreement, including the following, and all such fees, costs and expenses shall be part of the Obligations, payable on demand: (A) reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, and other professionals retained by Lender) incurred in connection with the examination, review, due diligence investigation, documentation and closing of the financing arrangements evidenced by the Loan Documents; (B) reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and other professionals retained by Lender) incurred in connection with the administration of the Loan Documents and the Loan and any amendments, modifications and waivers relating thereto; (C) reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with the review, documentation, negotiation, closing and administration of any subordination or intercreditor agreements; and (D) reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and fees of other professionals retained by Lender) incurred in any action to enforce or interpret this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or to collect any payments due from the Borrowers under this Loan Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document or incurred in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Loan Agreement, whether in the nature of a "workout" or in connection with any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise.

The obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers under this Section 14.2 shall survive the term of the Loan and the exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, including the acquisition of the Properties by foreclosure or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure. Section 14.3 Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Loan Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender and any other party to be charged. Each amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers or other Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Section 14.4 Retention of the Borrowers' Documents. Lender may, in accordance with Lender's customary practices, destroy or otherwise dispose of all documents, schedules, invoices or other papers, delivered by the Borrowers to Lender (other than the Note) unless the Borrowers request in writing that same be returned. Upon such request and at the Borrowers' expense, Lender shall return such papers when Lender's actual or anticipated need for same has terminated. Section 14.5 Notices.

Section 14.7 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under the Note or any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Loan Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. Section 14.8 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. Lender shall not be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Person makes a payment or payments to Lender, or Lender enforces its remedies or exercises its rights of set off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, if any, and rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or set off had not occurred. Section 14.9 Severability. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in any jurisdiction of any provision in or obligation under this Loan Agreement, the Note or other Loan Documents shall not affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations under this Loan Agreement, the Note or other Loan Documents or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction. Section 14.10 Headings. Section and subsection headings in this Loan Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Loan Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect. Section 14.11 APPLICABLE LAW.

Section 14.13 Sophisticated Parties, Reasonable Terms, No Fiduciary Relationship. The Borrowers, on behalf of themselves and all Borrower Parties, represent, warrant and acknowledge that (i) they are sophisticated real estate investors, familiar with transactions of this kind, and (ii) they have entered into this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents after conducting their own assessment of the alternatives available to them in the market, and after lengthy negotiations in which they have been represented by legal counsel of their choice. The Borrowers, on behalf of themselves and all Borrower Parties, also acknowledge and agree that the rights of Lender under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are reasonable and appropriate, taking into consideration all of the facts and circumstances including without limitation the quantity of the Loan, the nature of the Properties, and the risks incurred by Lender in this transaction. No provision in this Loan Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents and no course of dealing between the parties shall be deemed to create (i) any partnership or joint venture between Lender and the Borrowers or any other Person, or (ii) any fiduciary or similar duty by Lender to the Borrowers or any other Person. The relationship between Lender and the Borrowers is exclusively the relationship of a creditor and a debtor, and all relationships between Lender and any other Borrower are ancillary to such creditor/debtor relationship. Section 14.14 Reasonableness of Determinations. In any instance where any consent, approval, determination or other action by Lender is, pursuant to the Loan Documents or applicable law, required to be done reasonably or required not to be unreasonably withheld, then Lender's action shall be presumed to be reasonable, and the Borrowers shall bear the burden of proof of showing that the same was not reasonable. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where, by law or under this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and the Borrowers' sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Each of the Borrowers hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue Lender or any of Lender's Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent the same is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender. Section 14.16 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, and other professional Persons and consultants retained by Lender shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of Lender and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to any of the Borrowers or Affiliates thereof, or any other Person.

EACH OF THE BORROWERS ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPERTY, 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 AGREEMENT, THE NOTE, SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR SUCH OBLIGATION. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY BORROWER IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. Section 14.20 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE BORROWERS AND LENDER HEREBY WAIVES ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS LOAN AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN ANY BORROWER PARTY AND LENDER RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION AND THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. EACH OF THE BORROWER PARTIES AND LENDER ALSO WAIVES ANY BOND OR SURETY OR SECURITY UPON SUCH BOND WHICH MIGHT, BUT FOR THIS WAIVER, BE REQUIRED OF IT. 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 TRANSACTION, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.

IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS LOAN AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT. Section 14.21 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents and any amendments or supplements thereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This Loan Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto. Section 14.22 Servicer. Lender shall have the right from time to time to designate and appoint a Servicer and special servicer, and to change or replace any Servicer or special servicer. Provided that the Borrowers have been notified of such Servicer's role, all rights of the Lender hereunder may be exercised by Servicer on behalf of Lender. Lender shall notify the Borrowers in writing as to the identity of the Servicer and any special servicer. Section 14.23 Obligations of Borrower Parties. The Borrower Parties other than the Borrowers are parties to this Loan Agreement only with regard to the representations, warranties, and covenants specifically applicable to them. Section 14.24 Additional Inspections; Reports. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Loan Agreement to the contrary, if for any reason whatsoever Lender suspects that any conditions exist or may exist at any Property which might have a Material Adverse Effect, Lender shall have the right, at the Borrowers' sole reasonable cost and expense, to cause such inspections and reports to be prepared and performed with respect to any Property as Lender shall reasonably determine. Section 14.25 Cross-Default; Cross-Collateralization; Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. (A) Each of the Borrowers acknowledges that Lender has made the Loan to each of the Borrowers upon the security of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral and in reliance upon the aggregate value of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral taken together being of greater value as collateral security than the sum of each such Property and each of the Borrowers' interests in the Company Collateral taken separately. Each of the Borrowers agrees that the Deeds of Trusts and other security agreements given hereunder are and will be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with each other so that (i) an Event of Default shall constitute an Event of Default under each of the Deeds of Trusts and the other security agreements given hereunder which secure the Note; (ii) each Deed of Trust and the other security agreements given hereunder shall constitute security for the Note as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral as security for the Note; and (iii) such cross-collateralization shall in no event be deemed to constitute a fraudulent conveyance. (B) To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrowers, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of each of the Borrowers, each of the Borrower's members and others with interests in each of the Borrowers, and of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or any of the Deeds of Trusts or the Other Company Collateral, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral for the collection of the Loan without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Loan out of the net proceeds of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, each of the Borrowers, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Deeds of Trusts or Other Company Collateral, any equitable right otherwise available to each of the Borrowers which would require the separate sale of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any such Properties and the Other Company Collateral or any combination of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral before proceeding against any other Properties and the Other Company Collateral or combination of Properties and the Other Company Collateral; and further in the event of such foreclosure each of the Borrowers does hereby expressly consent to and authorize, at the option of Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Properties and the Other Company Collateral.
