(e) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, all monthly payments made as scheduled under this Agreement and the Note shall be applied first to the payment of interest computed at the Note Rate, and the balance toward the reduction of the principal amount of the Note. All voluntary and involuntary prepayments on the Note shall be applied, to the extent thereof, to accrued but unpaid interest on the amount prepaid, to the remaining principal amount, and any other sums due and unpaid to Lender in connection with the Loan, in such manner and order as Lender may elect in its sole and absolute discretion, including, but not limited to, application to principal installments in inverse order of maturity.

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

Prepayment Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Article 2.4, no voluntary prepayments, whether in whole or in part, of the Loan or any other amount at any time due and owing under this Note can be made by Borrower or any other Person without the express written consent of Lender. (a) Lockout Period; Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower shall have no right to make, and Lender shall have no obligation to accept, any voluntary prepayment, whether in whole or in part, of the Loan, or any other amount under this Note or the other Loan Documents, at any time during the Lockout Period. At any time following the expiration of the Lockout Period, the principal balance of this Note may be voluntarily prepaid in whole, but not in part, upon the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) no Event of Default shall exist under any of the Loan Documents; (ii) not less than thirty (30) (but not more than ninety (90)) days prior written notice shall be given to Lender specifying a date on which the prepayment shall occur, such date being a Scheduled Payment Date (the "Prepayment Date"); (iii) Borrower has paid to Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loan through and including the Prepayment Date together with all other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents; and (iv) Borrower has paid to Lender a prepayment premium in an amount equal to Yield Maintenance (as defined and calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(c) below). (b) Involuntary Prepayment. In the event of any involuntary prepayment of the Loan or any other amount under this Note, whether in whole or in part, in connection with or following Lender's acceleration of this Note or otherwise, and whether the Mortgage is satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of sale or judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means, including, without limitation, repayment of the Loan by Borrower or any other Person pursuant to any statutory or common law right of redemption, Borrower shall, in addition to any portion of the principal balance of the Loan prepaid (together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and in the event the prepayment is made on a date other than a Scheduled Payment Date, a sum equal to the amount of interest which would have accrued under this Note on the amount of such prepayment if such prepayment had occurred on the next Scheduled Payment Date), pay to Lender a prepayment premium in an amount equal to Yield Maintenance together with, if such involuntary prepayment occurs during the Lockout Period, an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the portion of the Loan being prepaid. (c) As used herein, "Yield Maintenance" means a prepayment premium in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the portion of the Loan being prepaid, and (ii) -13- the product obtained by multiplying: (A) the portion of the Loan being prepaid, times; (B) the difference obtained by subtracting (I) the Yield Rate from (II) the Note Rate, times; (C) the present value factor calculated using the following formula: 1-(1+r)^-n ---------- r r = Yield Rate n = the number of years and any fraction thereof, remaining between the date the prepayment is made and the Maturity Date. As used herein, "Yield Rate" means the corresponding yield rate for the period between the date of prepayment and the Maturity Date on a U.S. Treasury Security, as reported in The Wall Street Journal on the fifth Business Day preceding the Prepayment Calculation Date. If the Yield Rate is not published for such U.S. Treasury Security, then the "Yield Rate" shall mean the yield rate for the nearest equivalent U.S. Treasury Security (as selected at Lender's sole and absolute discretion) as reported in The Wall Street Journal on the fifth Business Day preceding the Prepayment Calculation Date. If the publication of such Yield Rate in The Wall Street Journal is discontinued, Lender shall determine such Yield Rate from another source selected by Lender in Lender's sole and absolute discretion. The "Prepayment Calculation Date" shall mean, as applicable, the date on which (i) Lender applies any prepayment to the reduction of the outstanding principal amount of this Note, (ii) Lender accelerates the Loan, in the case of a prepayment resulting from acceleration, or (iii) Lender applies funds held under any Reserve Account, in the case of a prepayment resulting from such an application (other than in connection with acceleration of the Loan). (d) Insurance Proceeds and Awards; Excess Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, and provided no Default exists, Borrower shall not be required to pay any prepayment premium in connection with any prepayment occurring solely as a result of (i) the application of Insurance Proceeds or Awards pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, or (ii) the application of any interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law to the reduction of the Loan. (e) Open Prepayment Period. At any time commencing on the Scheduled Payment Date which is six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date and ending on the Business Day that immediately precedes the Maturity Date, upon giving Lender at least thirty (30) days (but not more than ninety (90) days) prior written notice, Borrower may voluntarily prepay (without payment of Yield Maintenance or other premium) this Note in whole (but not in part) on a Scheduled Payment Date. Lender shall accept a prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.4(e) on a day other than a Scheduled Payment Date provided that, in addition to payment of the full outstanding principal balance of this Note, Borrower pays to Lender a sum equal to the amount of interest which would have accrued on this Note if such prepayment occurred on the next Scheduled Payment Date. -14- (f) Limitation on Partial Prepayments. In no event shall Lender have any obligation to accept a partial prepayment. Section 2.5. Payments after Default Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan, (a) shall accrue at the Default Rate, and (b) Lender shall be entitled to receive and Borrower shall pay to Lender all cash flow from the Property in accordance with the terms of the Article 10 hereof, such amount to be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such order as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, alternating applications thereof between interest and principal. Interest at the Default Rate shall be computed from the occurrence of the Event of Default until the earlier of (i) the actual receipt and collection of the Debt (or that portion thereof that is then due) and (ii) the cure of such Event of Default. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the Debt, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and shall be secured by the Mortgage. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default; the acceptance of any payment from Borrower shall not be deemed to cure or constitute a waiver of any Event of Default; and Lender retains its rights under this Agreement to accelerate and to continue to demand payment of the Debt upon the happening of and during the continuance any Event of Default, despite any payment by Borrower to Lender. Section 2.6. Usury Savings This Agreement and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Note Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding. -15- ARTICLE 3 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT The obligation of Lender to make the Loan hereunder is subject to the fulfillment by Borrower or waiver by Lender of the following conditions precedent no later than the Closing Date.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, enter into, renew, extend, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, terminate, reduce Rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of any Major Lease, provided that this section shall not limit the automatic expiration of the Master Lease as so provided for therein. (e) Borrower shall deposit in escrow with Lender any sum or termination fee payable (whether by election or in connection with a bankruptcy of a Tenant) to Borrower in connection with any early termination of a Major Lease of space at the Property (the "Termination Fee Deposit") on the date of Borrower's -35- receipt thereof. Provided no Event of Default exists, Lender shall disburse such deposited funds to pay for the costs of tenant improvements and leasing commissions incurred in connection with the releasing of any such space ("Vacated Space"), upon request by Borrower and delivery to Lender of invoices and such supporting documentation as Lender may reasonably request, including, without limitation, evidence that the work has been completed in a manner satisfactory to the applicable tenant. Upon completion of any payment for any tenant improvements and leasing commission in connection with the releasing of any Vacated Space, and provided that such Vacated Space is leased in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and for a base term expiring not less two (2) years after the Maturity Date, Lender shall disburse to Borrower any remaining sums from the Termination Fee Deposit with respect to such Vacated Space. (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent Lender's prior approval and/or consent is required for any leasing matters set forth in this Section 5.13, Lender shall have twenty (20) days from receipt of written request and all required information and documentation relating thereto in which to approve or disapprove such matter, provided that such request to Lender is marked in bold lettering with the following language: "LENDER'S RESPONSE IS REQUIRED WITHIN TWENTY (20) DAYS OF RECEIPT OF THIS NOTICE PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF A LOAN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNDERSIGNED AND LENDER" and the envelope containing the request must be marked "PRIORITY". In the event that Lender fails to approve or disapprove the leasing matter in question within such time (which such disapproval (if applicable) shall set forth the reasons for the same), Lender's approval shall be deemed given for all purposes. Borrower shall provide Lender with such information and documentation as may be reasonably required by Lender, including, without limitation, lease comparables and other market information as reasonably required by Lender.

(b) If at any time, (i) Manager shall become insolvent or a debtor in a bankruptcy proceeding; (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to which Lender has elected to accelerate the Loan, and Lender determines that a Manager Termination Event (defined below) exists; or (iii) a default has occurred and is continuing under the Management Agreement, Borrower shall, at the request of Lender, terminate the Management Agreement upon thirty -36- (30) days prior notice to Manager and replace Manager with a Qualified Manager approved by Lender on terms and conditions satisfactory to Lender, it being understood and agreed that the management fee for such replacement manager shall not exceed then prevailing market rates. "Manager Termination Event" shall mean a determination by Lender, made in the exercise of Lender's reasonable good faith discretion, that replacing Manager with a replacement manager is likely to result in a positive affect on the value of the Property. If Lender fails to determine that a Manager Termination Event exists, then Lender (together with any successor or any purchaser at foreclosure) shall be deemed to waive any right to terminate the Management Agreement as a result of an Event of Default. (c) In addition to the foregoing, in the event that Lender, in Lender's reasonable discretion, at any time prior to the termination of the Assignment of Management Agreement, determines that the Property is not being managed in accordance with generally accepted management practices for projects similarly situated, Lender may deliver written notice thereof to Borrower and Manager, which notice shall specify with particularity the grounds for Lender's determination. If Lender reasonably determines that the conditions specified in Lender's notice are not remedied to Lender's reasonable satisfaction by Borrower or Manager within thirty (30) days from the date of such notice or that Borrower or Manager have failed to diligently undertake correcting such conditions within such thirty (30) day period, Lender may direct Borrower to terminate the Management Agreement and to replace Manager with a Qualified Manager approved by Lender on terms and conditions satisfactory to Lender, it being understood and agreed that the management fee for such replacement manager shall not exceed then prevailing market rates. (d) Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed): (i) surrender, terminate or cancel the Management Agreement or otherwise replace Manager or enter into any other management agreement with respect to the Property; (ii) reduce or consent to the reduction of the term of the Management Agreement; (iii) increase or consent to the increase of the amount of any charges under the Management Agreement; or (iv) otherwise modify, change, supplement, alter or amend, or waive or release any of its rights and remedies under, the Management Agreement in any material respect.

Section 5.18. ERISA (a) Borrower shall not engage in any transaction which would cause any obligation, or action taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Lender of any of its rights under the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption) prohibited transaction under ERISA. (b) Borrower further covenants and agrees to deliver to Lender such certifications or other evidence from time to time throughout the term of the Loan, as requested by Lender in its sole discretion, that (i) Borrower is not and does not maintain an "employee benefit plan" as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, which is subject to Title I of ERISA, or a "governmental plan" within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA; (ii) Borrower is not subject to state statutes regulating investments and fiduciary obligations with respect to governmental plans; and (iii) one or more of the following circumstances is true: (A) Equity interests in Borrower are publicly offered securities, within the meaning of 29 C.F.R.ss.2510.3-101(b)(2); (B) Less than twenty-five percent (25%) of each outstanding class of equity interests in Borrower are held by "benefit plan investors" within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. ss.2510.3-101(f)(2); or (C) Borrower qualifies as an "operating company" or a "real estate operating company" within the meaning of 29 C.F.R.ss.2510.3-101(c) or (e).

Section 5.20. Reciprocal Easement Agreements Borrower shall not enter into, terminate or modify any material terms or conditions contained in any REA without Lender's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Alterations (a) Lender's prior approval shall be required in connection with any alterations to any Improvements, exclusive of alterations to tenant spaces required under any Lease, (a) that may have a material adverse effect on the Property, (b) that are structural in nature or (c) that, together with any other alterations undertaken at the same time (including any related alterations, improvements or replacements), are reasonably anticipated to have a cost in excess of the Alteration Threshold. If the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to such alterations to the Improvements shall at any time exceed the Alteration Threshold, Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender as security for the payment of such amounts and as additional security for Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents any of the following: (i) cash, (ii) direct non-callable obligations of the United States of America or other obligations which are "government securities" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, to the extent acceptable to the applicable Rating Agencies, (iii) other securities acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies, or (iv) a completion bond, provided that such completion bond is acceptable to the Lender and the Rating Agencies.

Transferee and such constituent partners, -47- members or shareholders of Transferee (as the case may be), as Lender shall require, shall comply with the covenants set forth in Article 6 hereof; (h) Transferee shall assume the obligations of Borrower under any Management Agreement or provide a new management agreement with a new manager which meets with the requirements of Section 5.14 hereof and assign to Lender as additional security such new management agreement; (i) Transferee shall furnish an opinion of counsel satisfactory to Lender and its counsel (A) that Transferee's formation documents provide for the matters described in subparagraph (g) above, (B) that the assumption of the Debt has been duly authorized, executed and delivered, and that the Note, the Mortgage, this Agreement, the assumption agreement and the other Loan Documents are valid, binding and enforceable against Transferee in accordance with their terms, (C) that Transferee and any entity which is a controlling stockholder, member or general partner of Transferee, have been duly organized, and are in existence and good standing, and (E) with respect to such other matters as Lender may reasonably request; (j) if required by Lender and only if the Transferee is not an FSP Transferee, Lender shall have received confirmation in writing from the Rating Agencies that rate the Securities to the effect that the transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any rating initially assigned or to be assigned to the Securities; (k) Borrower's obligations under the contract of sale pursuant to which the transfer is proposed to occur shall expressly be subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Section 7.5; and (l) Transferee shall, prior to such transfer, deliver a substantive non-consolidation opinion to Lender, which opinion shall be in form, scope and substance acceptable in all respects to Lender and the Rating Agencies, if required based on the ownership structure of Transferee. A consent by Lender with respect to a transfer of the Property in its entirety to, and the related assumption of the Loan by, a Transferee pursuant to this Section 7.5 shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right of Lender to consent to any subsequent Sale or Pledge of the Property. Upon the transfer of the Property pursuant to this Section 7.5, Borrower shall be relieved of all liability under the Loan Documents for acts, events, conditions, or circumstances occurring or arising after the date of such transfer, except to the extent that such acts, events, conditions, or circumstances are the proximate result of acts, events, conditions, or circumstances that existed prior to the date of such transfer, whether or not discovered prior or subsequent to the date of such transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.5, in no event shall Lender be obligated to give its consent to an Assumption prior to a Securitization in the event Lender shall have determined that the consideration to be paid by the applicable Transferee in connection with such Assumption is less than the appraised value of the Property as such appraised value was determined by Lender in connection with the closing of the Loan. -48- ARTICLE 8 INSURANCE; CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION; RESTORATION Section 8.1. Insurance (a) Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, at all times insurance for Borrower and the Property providing at least the following coverages: (i) comprehensive "special causes of loss" form of insurance (or its equivalent) on the Improvements and the Personal Property (A) in an amount equal to not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the "Full Replacement Cost," which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings); (B) written on a replacement cost basis and containing either an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the Improvements and Personal Property or a waiver of all co-insurance provisions; (C) providing for no deductible in excess of $25,000 for all such insurance coverage; (D) at all times insuring against at least those hazards that are commonly insured against under a "special causes of loss" form of policy, as the same shall exist on the date hereof, and together with any increase in the scope of coverage provided under such form after the date hereof; and (E) if any of the Improvements or the use of the Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses, providing coverage for contingent liability from Operation of Building Laws, Demolition Costs and Increased Cost of Construction Endorsements and containing an "Ordinance or Law Coverage" or "Enforcement" endorsement. In addition, Borrower shall obtain: (y) if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in a "special flood hazard area" designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount of such insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be amended; and (z) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender in the event the Property is located in an area with a high degree of seismic risk, provided that the insurance pursuant to clauses (y) and (z) hereof shall be on terms consistent with the special causes of loss form required under this subsection (i); (ii) commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Property, with such insurance (A) to be on the so-called "occurrence" form with a general aggregate limit of not less than $2,000,000 and a per occurrence limit of not less than $1,000,000; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; and (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations; (3) independent contractors; (4) blanket contractual liability; and (5) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in Article 12 and Article 14 hereof to the extent the same is available; -49- (iii) loss of rents insurance or business income insurance, as applicable, (A) with loss payable to Lender; (B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above; and (C) which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property occurs, the loss of rents or income, as applicable, will be insured until completion of Restoration or the expiration of eighteen (18) months, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (D) which contains an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of six (6) months from the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. The amount of such loss of rents or business income insurance, as applicable, shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Borrower's reasonable estimate of the gross income from the Property for the succeeding period of coverage required above. All proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such loss of rents or business income insurance, as applicable; (iv) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, and only if the Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (A) owner's contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above written in a so-called Builder's Risk Completed Value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against "special causes of loss" insured against pursuant to subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the Property, and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions; (v) workers' compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the State, and employer's liability insurance in respect of any work or operations on or about the Property, or in connection with the Property or its operation (if applicable); (vi) comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, if applicable, in an amount not less than $50,000,000 per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial property insurance policy required under subsection (i) above; (vii) excess liability insurance in an amount not less than $50,000,000 per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance required under subsection (ii) above; and -50- (viii) upon sixty (60) days' written notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located. The Policies required to be maintained pursuant to clauses (i) through (viii) above shall not contain exclusions for acts of terrorism or similar acts of sabotage (with respect to either Certified Coverage or Non-Certified Coverage), but may exclude acts of war and nuclear, chemical and biological acts ("Acts of Terror"), or alternatively, Borrower shall have obtained and shall maintain throughout the term of Loan affirmative coverage thereunder insuring against Acts of Terror satisfactory to Lender in all respects and in the amounts and subject to the deductibles described in Sections 8.1(a)(i) and 8.1(a)(iii) above (the "Terrorism Coverage"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) if, after the Closing Date and at the expiration of any applicable Policy, it is no longer customary for Qualified Insurers insuring properties similar to the Property to (1) exclude acts of war and/or nuclear, chemical and/or biological acts, the Borrower shall obtain and maintain Terrorism Coverage without each of such referenced exclusions which are no longer customarily excluded by such Qualified Insurers and (2) exclude Acts of Terror from such Policies, then Borrower shall obtain and maintain said Policies without said exclusion and (ii) in the event that TRIA is no longer in effect, the Terrorism Coverage for acts similar to acts included within the Certified Coverage under TRIA shall be maintained in the amount of full replacement cost and business income as provided in this Section 8.1. In connection with the requirement of the immediately preceding sentence, in no event shall Borrower be required to pay annual premiums in excess of two hundred percent (200%) of the cost of such premiums as of the Closing Date in order to obtain the Terrorism Coverage, but Borrower shall be obligated to purchase such portion of the Terrorism Coverage as is obtainable by payment of an annual premium equal to the two hundred percent (200%) and subject to the deductible contained in Section 8.1(a) above, provided that in making the calculations contemplated in this sentence, the cost of the premiums as of the Closing Date shall be adjusted annually to reflect any increase during the preceding year in the Consumer Price Index. (b) All insurance provided for in Section 8.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the "Policies" or in the singular, the "Policy"), and shall be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of "A" or better by S&P (and the equivalent from the other Rating Agencies) (or such other ratings promulgated from time to time by S&P and Moody's for properties and transactions similar in type and size to the Property and the Loan). The Policies described in Section 8.1(a) shall designate Lender and its successors and assigns as additional insureds, mortgagees and/or loss payee as deemed appropriate by Lender. To the extent such Policies are not available as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender prior to the Closing Date an Acord 28 or similar certificate of insurance evidencing the coverages and amounts required hereunder and, upon request of Lender as soon as available after the Closing Date, certified copies of all Policies. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of any insurance coverage in place with respect to the Property, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Acord 28 or similar certificate, accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due in connection therewith (the "Insurance Premiums"), and, as soon as available thereafter, certified copies of all renewal Policies. -51- (c) Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 8.1(a). (d) All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 8.1(a), except for the Policy referenced in Section 8.1(a)(v), shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender. (e) All Policies provided for in Section 8.1(a) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that: (i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any Tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned, provided that this subsection shall not apply to the Policies described in Section 8.1(a)(ii) Section 8.1(a)(vii); (ii) the Policies shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled by the insurer without at least thirty (30) days' (ten (10) days' in the case of non-payment of premium) prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured; (iii) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policies have not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and (iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder. (f) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, obtaining such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. -52- Section 8.2. Casualty If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a "Casualty"), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender and, if Restoration is commercially feasible, shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property in accordance with Section 8.4, whether or not Lender makes any Net Proceeds available pursuant to Section 8.4. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. Borrower shall adjust all claims for Insurance Proceeds in consultation with, and approval of, Lender; provided, however, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the exclusive right to participate in the adjustment of all claims for Insurance Proceeds. Section 8.3. Condemnation Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of the Property of which Borrower has knowledge and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority and, if Restoration is commercially feasible, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 8.4, whether or not Lender makes any Net Proceeds available pursuant to Section 8.4. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt. Section 8.4.. Restoration The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of the Property: (a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4(b)(i) are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. -53- (b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than five percent (5%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than five percent (5%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4. The term "Net Proceeds" for purposes of this Section 8.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(i), (iv), (vi) and (viii) as a result of a Casualty, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting the same ("Insurance Proceeds"), or (ii) the net amount of the Award as a result of a Condemnation, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting the same ("Condemnation Proceeds"), whichever the case may be. (i) The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met: (A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of a Casualty and the amount of damage does not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the Property's fair market value immediately prior to the occurrence of such Casualty, or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the Property is taken, such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, and less than fifteen percent (15%) of the aggregate floor area of the Improvements is taken and the taking does not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the Property's fair market value immediately prior to the occurrence of such taking; (C) Leases covering in the aggregate at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the total rentable space in the Property which has been demised under executed and delivered Leases in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, and each Major Lease in effect as of such date shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration without abatement of rent beyond the time required for Restoration; (D) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion; (E) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a -54- result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii) above; (F) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Leases or material agreements affecting the Property, (3) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation, or (4) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii); (G) the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all Legal Requirements; (H) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements; (I) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the Property or the Improvements; (J) Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower's architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be acceptable to Lender; and (K) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender's reasonable judgment to cover the cost of the Restoration. (ii) The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender until disbursements commence, and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4, shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all the conditions precedent to such advance, including those set forth in Section 8.4(b)(i), have been satisfied, (B) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the related Restoration item have been paid for in full, and (C) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic's or materialman's liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Business Interruption Proceeds shall be controlled by Lender at all times, shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.4 and shall be used solely for the payment of the obligations under the Loan Documents, including the payment of Actual Operating Expenses. -55- (iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the "Restoration Consultant"). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts in excess of $50,000 under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Restoration Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Restoration Consultant's fees, shall be paid by Borrower. (iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net 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 Restoration Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage. The term "Restoration Retainage" shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Restoration Retainage shall be reduced to five percent (5%) of the costs incurred upon receipt by Lender of satisfactory evidence that fifty percent (50%) of the Restoration has been completed. The Restoration Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 8.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b) 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 evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor's, subcontractor's or materialman's contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman. -56- (v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month. (vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Restoration Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Restoration Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the "Net Proceeds Deficiency") with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 8.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. (vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. (c) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 8.4(b)(vii) may (x) be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, (y) at the sole discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes and upon such conditions as Lender shall designate. If, pursuant to this Section 8.4, Lender shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, (i) the lien of the Mortgage shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Lender and actually applied by Lender in reduction of the Debt; and (ii) notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, Borrower shall not be required to repair or restore the portion of the Property affected by such Casualty or Condemnation to the condition or character the Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation so long as no Event of Default exists, but Borrower shall be required to remove all debris with respect to the portion of the Property not required to be restored in a manner that is safe and is not dangerous to health or other property and is in compliance with all applicable laws. (d) In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure, Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title. -57- ARTICLE 9 RESERVE FUNDS Section 9.1. Intentionally omitted Section 9.2. Intentionally omitted Section 9.3. Intentionally omitted Section 9.4. Intentionally omitted Section 9.5. Intentionally omitted Section 9.6. Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds Borrower shall establish on the date hereof an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender's agent sufficient to discharge Borrower's obligations for the payment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof (the "Tax and Insurance Reserve Account") into which Borrower shall deposit on the date hereof $720,573.44, which amount, when added to the required monthly deposits set forth in the next sentence, is sufficient to make the payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums as required herein. Borrower shall deposit into the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account on each Scheduled Payment Date (a) one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to the earlier of (i) the date that the same will become delinquent and (ii) the date that additional charges or interest will accrue due to the non-payment thereof, provided that such monthly deposits shall not be required if Borrower maintains on deposit with Lender an escrow equal to the full amount of Taxes due over the next succeeding twelve (12) month period, and (b) except to the extent Lender has waived the insurance escrow because the insurance required hereunder is maintained under a blanket insurance Policy acceptable to Lender in accordance with Section 8.1(c), one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the "Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds"). Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof. In making any disbursement from the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or tax lien service (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof, Lender shall promptly send notice of such excess amount to Borrower and, if requested by Borrower, shall promptly return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account. In allocating any such excess, Lender may deal with the person shown on Lender's -58- records as being the owner of the Property. Any amount remaining in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower or the person shown on Lender's records as being the owner of the Property and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds are not or will not be sufficient to pay Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in (a) and (b) above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall pay to Lender any amount necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) days after notice from Lender to Borrower requesting payment thereof. In the event that Borrower requests Lender's consent to an amendment or modification to this Section 9.6, Lender shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to such request provided that such amendment or modification does not materially or adversely impact Lender, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion. Section 9.7. Reserve Funds Generally (a) (i) No earnings or interest on the Reserve Accounts shall be payable to Borrower. Neither Lender nor any loan servicer that at any time holds or maintains the Reserve Accounts shall have any obligation to keep or maintain such Reserve Accounts or any funds deposited therein in interest-bearing accounts, except with respect to a Termination Fee Deposit as described below in Section 9.7(a)(ii). Except for Termination Fee Deposits, if Lender or any such loan servicer elects in its sole and absolute discretion to keep or maintain any Reserve Account or any funds deposited therein in an interest-bearing account, (i) such funds shall not be invested except in Permitted Investments, and (ii) all interest earned or accrued thereon shall be for the account of and be retained by Lender or such loan servicer. (ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any funds deposited in escrow with Lender arising from a Termination Fee Deposit shall be invested in Permitted Investments and bear interest at a business savings account rate (or if such rate is then currently unavailable, at a similar rate determined by Lender) and interest shall be credited to Borrower. In no event shall Lender or any loan servicer that at any time holds or maintains such funds be required to select any particular interest-bearing account or the account that yields the highest rate of interest, provided that selection of the account shall be consistent with the general standards at the time being utilized by Lender or the loan servicer, as applicable, in establishing similar accounts for loans of comparable type. Borrower agrees that it shall include all such interest as the income of Borrower (and, if Borrower is a partnership or other pass-through entity, the partners, members or beneficiaries of Borrower, as the case may be), and shall be the owner such funds for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes, except to the extent that Lender retains any interest for its own account during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default as provided herein (b) Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in, and assigns and pledges to Lender, each of the Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Accounts and the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Debt. The provisions of this Section 9.7 are intended to give Lender or any subsequent holder of the Loan "control" of the Reserve Accounts within the meaning of the UCC. -59- (c) The Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Lender, which shall hold the Reserve Accounts and any or all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal from the Reserve Accounts or any other right or power with respect to the Reserve Accounts or any or all of the Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. (d) Lender shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Borrower, without charge, an annual accounting of each Reserve Account in the normal format of Lender or its loan servicer, showing credits and debits to such Reserve Account and the purpose for which each debit to each Reserve Account was made. (e) As long as no Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall make disbursements from the Reserve Accounts in accordance with this Agreement. All such disbursements shall be deemed to have been expressly pre-authorized by Borrower, and shall not be deemed to constitute the exercise by Lender of any remedies against Borrower unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Lender has expressly stated in writing its intent to proceed to exercise its remedies as a secured party, pledgee or lienholder with respect to the Reserve Accounts. (f) If any Event of Default occurs, Borrower shall immediately lose all of its rights to receive disbursements from the Reserve Accounts until the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which such Event of Default is cured to Lender's satisfaction, or (ii) the payment in full of the Debt. Lender may, at its election, hold any intersest accruing on any Termination Fee Deposit during the existence of an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Reserve Accounts. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon any Event of Default, Lender may use and disburse the Reserve Funds (or any portion thereof) for any of the following purposes: (A) repayment of the Debt, including, but not limited to, principal prepayments and the prepayment premium applicable to such full or partial prepayment (as applicable); (B) reimbursement of Lender for all losses, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of such Event of Default; (C) payment of any amount expended in exercising any or all rights and remedies available to Lender at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; (D) payment of any item from any of the Reserve Accounts as required or permitted under this Agreement; or (E) any other purpose permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that any such application of funds shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Event of Default. Without limiting any other provisions hereof, each of the remedial actions described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable exercise of Lender's rights and remedies as a secured party with respect to the Reserve Funds and shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a setoff or a foreclosure of a statutory banker's lien. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all or any portion of the Reserve Funds to effect a cure of any Event of Default, or to pay the Debt, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Lender's rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Lender's right to initiate and complete a foreclosure under the Mortgage. -60- (g) The Reserve Funds shall not constitute escrow or trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Lender may commingle in one or more Eligible Accounts any and all funds controlled by Lender, including, without limitation, funds pledged in favor of Lender by other borrowers, whether for the same purposes as the Reserve Accounts or otherwise. Without limiting any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Reserve Accounts may be established and held in such name or names as Lender or its loan servicer, as agent for Lender, shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, in the name of Lender or such loan servicer, as agent for Lender. In the case of any Reserve Account which is held in a commingled account, Lender or its loan servicer, as applicable, shall maintain records sufficient to enable it to determine at all times which portion of such account is related to the Loan. The Reserve Accounts are solely for the protection of Lender. With respect to the Reserve Accounts, Lender shall have no responsibility beyond the allowance of due credit for the sums actually received by Lender or beyond the reimbursement or payment of the costs and expenses for which such accounts were established in accordance with their terms. Upon assignment of the Loan by Lender, any Reserve Funds shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender as assignor shall terminate. The requirements of this Agreement concerning Reserve Accounts in no way supersede, limit or waive any other rights or obligations of the parties under any of the Loan Documents or under applicable law. (h) Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Reserve Accounts or the Reserve Funds deposited therein or permit any Lien to attach thereto, except for the security interest granted in this Section 9.9, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. (i) Borrower will maintain the security interest created by this Section 9.7 as a first priority perfected security interest and will defend the right, title and interest of Lender in and to the Reserve Accounts and the Reserve Funds against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Lender, and at the sole expense of Borrower, Borrower will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and will take such further actions as Lender reasonably may request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.

Lockbox Account and Cash Management Account (a) Borrower acknowledges and confirms that Borrower has established, and Borrower covenants that it shall maintain, (i) pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, an Eligible Account into which Borrower shall, and shall cause Manager to, deposit or cause to be deposited, all Rents and other revenue from the Property (such account, all funds at any time on deposit therein and any proceeds, replacements or substitutions of such account or funds therein, are referred to herein as the "Lockbox Account"), and (ii) an Eligible Account into which funds in the Lockbox Account shall be transferred pursuant to the terms of Section 10.2(b) hereof (such account, the sub-accounts thereof, all funds at any time on deposit therein and any proceeds, replacements or substitutions of such account or funds therein, are referred to herein as the "Cash Management Account"). -61- (b) The Lockbox Account and Cash Management Account shall each be in the name of Borrower for the benefit of Lender, provided that Borrower shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in such accounts for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes (except to the extent Lender retains any interest earned on the Cash Management Account for its own account following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default). Sums on deposit in the Cash Management Account shall not be invested except in such Permitted Investments as determined and directed by Lender and all income earned thereon shall be the income of Borrower and be applied to and become part of the Cash Management Account, to be disbursed in accordance with this Article 10. Neither Lockbox Bank nor Lender shall have any liability for any loss resulting from the investment of funds in Permitted Investments in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. (c) The Lockbox Account and Cash Management Account shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Lender and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Borrower, Manager nor any other party claiming on behalf of, or through, Borrower or Manager, shall have any right of withdrawal therefrom or any other right or power with respect thereto. (d) Borrower agrees to pay the customary fees and expenses of Deposit Bank (incurred in connection with maintaining the Lockbox Account) and Lender (incurred in connection with maintaining the Cash Management Account) and any successors thereto in connection therewith, as separately agreed by them from time to time. (e) Lender shall be responsible for the performance only of such duties with respect to the Cash Management Account as are specifically set forth herein, and no duty shall be implied from any provision hereof. Lender shall not be under any obligation or duty to perform any act which would involve it in expense or liability or to institute or defend any suit in respect hereof, or to advance any of its own monies. Borrower shall indemnify and hold Lender and its directors, employees, officers and agents harmless from and against any loss, cost or damage (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by such parties in connection with the Cash Management Account other than such as result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender or intentional nonperformance by Lender of its obligations under this Agreement. Section 10.2.

If Borrower fails to provide any -62- such notice (and without prejudice to Lender's rights with respect to such default), Lender shall have the right, and Borrower hereby grants to Lender a power of attorney (which power of attorney shall be coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding), to sign and deliver a Tenant Direction Letter; (ii) Borrower shall, and shall cause Manager to, instruct all Persons that maintain open accounts with Borrower or Manager with respect to the Property or with whom Borrower or Manager does business on an "accounts receivable" basis with respect to the Property to deliver all payments due under such accounts to the Lockbox.

The foregoing shall not prohibit Borrower from utilizing one or more separate accounts for the disbursement or retention of funds that have been transferred to Borrower pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement. (b) Provided no Event of Default exists, Lockbox Bank shall be authorized to transfer all collected and available balances in the Lockbox Account to Borrower.

Lender's right to withdraw and apply funds as stated herein shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. Section 10.3. Security Interest (a) To secure the full and punctual payment of the Debt and performance of all obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in each of the Accounts and the Account Collateral. Furthermore, Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any of the foregoing or permit any Lien to attach thereto or any levy to be made thereon or any UCC Financing Statements to be filed with respect thereto.

In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 13.6 the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one such separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party.

In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the indemnified party's and Borrower's relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender, Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation. (f) The liabilities and obligations of Borrower and Lender under this Section 13.6 shall survive the satisfaction of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

(b) Borrower will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Debt for any part of the Taxes or Other Charges assessed against the Property, or any part thereof, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Property, or any part thereof, for real estate tax purposes by reason of the Mortgage or the Debt.

ARTICLE 18 WAIVERS Section 18.1. Remedies Cumulative; Waivers The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender's rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender's sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Section 18.2. Modification, Waiver in Writing No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or of the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to, or demand on Borrower, shall entitle Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Section 18.3. Delay Not a Waiver Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder, or under the Note or under any other Loan Document, or any other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount. -84- Section 18.4. Trial by Jury BORROWER AND LENDER EACH HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.

The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Lender agrees that, in such event, it shall cooperate in expediting any action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. Section 18.7. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower's partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, 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 Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. -85- Section 18.8. Waiver of Statute of Limitations Borrower hereby expressly waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to payment of the Debt or performance of its Other Obligations.

Severability Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Section 19.3. Preferences Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Creditors Rights Laws, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender. -86- ARTICLE 20 MISCELLANEOUS Section 20.1. Survival This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Debt is outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents.
