(a) Borrowers must submit a Substitution Request, identifying the proposed Substitute Property and the proposed Replaced Property at least ninety (90) days prior to the proposed closing date for the Substitution.

(b) The owner of the Substitute Property must be a single purpose entity owned and controlled in such manner that inclusion of such owner as a Borrower would not result in a Change of Control and such owner must execute a joinder agreement in the form of Exhibit A to join this Agreement as a Borrower.

(c) Lender in its sole discretion shall acknowledge within ten (10) business days of the Lender’s receipt of the Substitution Request whether the proposed Substitute Property appears to be acceptable to permit the Substitution.

(d) Borrowers shall pay a loan fee to Lender equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) of an amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the appraised fair market “As Is” value of the Substitute Property at closing of each approved Substitution; provided, however, that such fee shall be $50,000 with respect to each of the first three (3) Substitutions. A “Substitution Deposit” of $25,000.00 shall be required with submission of a Substitution Request, which deposit shall be applied to the loan fee at closing of the Substitution. The deposit and loan fee contemplated by this subsection are in addition to attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in the documentation of such Substitution and in the review of due diligence.

(e) All improvements on the Substitute Property shall have been completed in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance, in all material respects, with all applicable governmental requirements.

(f) The appraised fair market “As Is” value of the Substitute Property shall be equal to or greater than the greater of (x) the then appraised fair market value, or gross sales proceeds, as the case may be, of the Replaced Property, and (y) the original appraised value of

the Replaced Property as set forth in the appraisal delivered to Lender in connection with the closing of the loan on the Replaced Property; provided, however, that, Borrowers may prepay the Loan by the amount of any shortfall in the appraised fair market “As Is” value of the Substitute Property with respect to the foregoing requirement.

(g) Borrowers must demonstrate to Lender’s satisfaction that, after giving effect to such Substitution (and any proposed prepayment of the Loan to be made in conjunction therewith, if applicable), the Borrowers will be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Article VII.

(h) Lender’s outside counsel shall prepare and Borrowers shall execute (1) amendments to the Note, the Mortgage, the Assignments of Rents and Leases, the Environmental Indemnification Agreement, and this Agreement to the extent deemed necessary or appropriate by Lender, and (2) all Loan Documents Lender shall deem necessary or appropriate, including, but not limited to, any new security instrument, assignment of rents and leases, environmental indemnities, etc. relating to the Substitute Property (all of which documentation shall be substantially in the form of the applicable documents executed in connection with the closing of the Loan with such changes thereto as Lender reasonably deems appropriate to reflect the terms and circumstances of the Substitution and Substitute Property) (collectively, the “Substitute Loan Documents”). The Substitution Loan Documents shall be cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with the existing Loan Documents for the Loan.

(i) Borrowers shall be required to supply for Lender’s review and approval due diligence materials relating to the Substitute Property prior to closing of the Substitution similar to those items required for closing of this Loan, and such other materials as may then be customarily required as part of its then current commercial loan closing policies, procedures, standards and practices for properties of similar type and in similar locations as the Substitute Property, including, without limitation, a current as-built ALTA survey, proof of adequate insurance, title insurance in conformance with the requirements for the closing of this Loan, proof of compliance with governmental regulations, tenant estoppel certificates, subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements, franchise agreements and comfort letters. The Lender shall, at the Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, receive for its review and approval all additional due diligence materials in any way relating to the Substitute Property, including but not limited to, appraisal, hazardous substance report, seismic report and engineer report as required by Lender in its reasonable discretion. The items listed in this subsection are not exhaustive.

(j) The Substitute Loan Documents, financing statements, and other instruments required to perfect the liens in the Substitute Property and all collateral under such documents shall be recorded, registered and filed (as applicable) in such manner as may be required by law to create a valid, perfected lien and security interest with respect to the Substitute Property and the personal property related thereto. The liens created by the Substitute Loan Documents shall be first liens and security interests on the Substitute Property and the personal property related thereto, subject only to such exceptions as Lender shall approve in its reasonable discretion. At closing of the Substitution, Borrowers shall have good and marketable title to the Substitute Property and good and valid title to any personal property located thereon

or used in connection therewith, in each case satisfactory to the Lender. The title policies to the remaining parcels of Property in the Loan must also be endorsed to bring forward the effective dates thereof through the dates and times of recording of the modification instruments and showing no new exceptions since the original Loan closing unless approved by Lender in writing and continuing all coverage provided in the original Loan title policy.

(k) Lender shall receive (1) a confirmation and reaffirmation of all Loan Documents by the Borrowers for the remaining Property, (2) a consent to such Substitution by the Guarantors, and (3) such other instruments and agreements and such certificates and opinions of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender in connection with such Substitution as it may reasonably request.

(1) Borrowers shall be responsible for all documentary stamp and intangible taxes on the Substitution and the Mortgage encumbering the Substitute Property and all other parcels of Property in the Loan that shall arise in connection with such Substitution. Lender shall require payment of all such documentary stamp and intangibles taxes required by law and authorities having jurisdiction as a condition of closing the Substitution and the corresponding loan modifications to the Loan, regardless of whether the taxing authority imposes taxes duplicative of those incurred at the original closing of the Loan.

(m) No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder or under any other Loan Documents for the Loan on the date of Substitution Request or at closing of the Substitution.

(n) Lender shall be satisfied that no material adverse change in the financial condition, operations or prospects of any Borrower Party has occurred since the closing of the Loan.

(o) Borrowers shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such Substitution .and the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Lender, its outside counsel and its loan correspondent and servicer in connection therewith.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require from the Borrowers in conjunction with a Substitution Request hereunder a principal prepayment in excess of that amount necessary to cause the Borrowers to be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Article VII hereof after giving effect to the Substitution.

(g) Any Borrower Party (i) shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admit in writing its general inability to pay or generally fail to pay its debts as they mature or become due, or shall petition or apply for the appointment of a trustee or other custodian, liquidator or receiver of any such Person or of any substantial part of the assets of any thereof, (ii) shall commence any case or other proceeding relating to any such Person under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation or similar law of any jurisdiction, now or hereafter in effect, or (iii) shall take any action to authorize or in furtherance of any of the foregoing;

(i) A decree or order is entered appointing any such trustee, custodian, liquidator or receiver or adjudicating any Borrower Party bankrupt or insolvent, or approving a petition in any such case or other proceeding, or a decree or order for relief is entered in respect of any Borrower Party in an involuntary case under federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter constituted;

(k) If all or any portion of the Loan Documents shall be canceled, terminated, revoked or rescinded other than in accordance with the terms thereof or with the express prior written agreement, consent or approval of Lender, or any action at law, suit in equity or other legal proceeding to cancel, revoke or rescind any of the Loan Documents shall be commenced by or on behalf of any Borrower Party or any of their respective stockholders, partners, members or beneficiaries, or any such Person shall assert that any of the Loan Documents do not apply to future advances under this Agreement or any court or any other governmental or regulatory authority or agency of competent jurisdiction shall make a determination that, or issue a judgment, order, decree or ruling to the effect that, any one or more of the Loan Documents is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with their respective terms;

(l) Any suit or proceeding shall be filed against any of the Borrower Parties or any Collateral which in the good faith business judgment of Lender after giving consideration to the likelihood of success of such suit or proceeding and the availability of insurance to cover any judgment with respect thereto and based on the information available to them, if adversely determined, would result in an uninsured judgment or settlement that would have a Material Adverse Effect;

(m) Any Guarantor denies that such Guarantor has any liability or obligation under the Guaranty or any Environmental Indemnity Agreement pursuant to the terms of such document, or shall notify Lender of such Guarantor’s intention to attempt to cancel or terminate the Guaranty or any Environmental Indemnity Agreement, or shall fail to observe or comply with any term, covenant, condition or agreement under this Agreement, the Guaranty or any Environmental Indemnity Agreement after the expiration of any applicable cure periods provided therein, if any;

(n) The occurrence of a Change of Control;

(o) Any “Event of Default”, as defined in any of the other Loan Documents, shall occur;

(r) Any amendment to or termination of a financing statement naming any Borrower as debtor and Lender as secured party, or any correction statement with respect thereto, is filed in any jurisdiction by, or caused by, or at the instance of any Borrower or by, or caused by, or at the instance of any principal, member, general partner or officer of any Borrower without the prior written consent of Lender.

Section 8.02 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, in its discretion, exercise one or more of the following remedies:

(a) Accelerate the maturity of the Obligations and declare the entire unpaid principal balance of, and any unpaid interest then accrued on, the Note, without demand or notice of any kind to Borrowers or any other Person, to be immediately due and payable;

(b) Take all, any or any combination of the actions Lender may take under any of the other Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement upon the occurrence of a default or an event of default thereunder, notwithstanding the fact that the event that is an Event of Default hereunder may not constitute a default or an event of default under any such other Loan Document or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement, including, without limitation acceleration of the Obligations evidenced by the Note and foreclosure and sale of the Land and the Improvements under the Security Instruments;

(c) Perform, or cause to be performed, any obligation, covenant or agreement that Borrowers have failed to perform or comply with, and in such event all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in performing any such obligation, covenant or agreement shall be added to the Obligations and shall be secured by the Security Instruments, and shall bear interest at the

Default Rate (as defined in the Note) from the date paid or incurred by Lender, and the interest thereon shall also be added to and become a part of the Obligations and shall be secured by the Security Instruments;

(d) Continue to act, with respect to Borrowers and the Loan, as if no Event of Default had occurred, which continuance shall not be or be construed as a waiver of Lender’s rights; and assert the Event of Default and take any action provided for herein at any time after the occurrence and during the existence of the Event of Default;

(e) Proceed as authorized by law to obtain payment of the Loan; or

(f) Take all, any, or any combination of the actions Lender may take under applicable law or equity.

No failure or delay on the part of Lender to exercise any right or remedy hereunder or under the Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any further right or remedy hereunder or under the Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement. No exercise by Lender of any remedy under the other Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement shall operate as a limitation on any rights or remedies of Lender under this Agreement, except to the extent of moneys actually received by Lender under the other Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement.

Section 8.03 Costs and Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any of the actions authorized in this Article, after an Event of Default, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, shall be and constitute a portion of the Loan, secured in the same manner and to the same extent as the Loan, even though such costs and expenses may cause the amount of the Loan to exceed the face amount of the Note. Whenever the terms of this Agreement require Borrowers to pay attorneys’ fees of Lender, such obligation shall extend only to reasonable attorneys’ fees, without regard to statutory interpretations, actually incurred at normal hourly rates.

Section 8.04 Remedies Cumulative. The foregoing remedies are cumulative of, and in addition to, and not restrictive or in lieu of, the other remedies provided for herein and the remedies provided for or allowed by the other Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement, or provided for or allowed by law, or in equity.

ARTICLE IX

JOINT BORROWER PROVISIONS.

Section 9.01 Joint Borrower Provisions.

(a) Each Borrower hereby agrees that such Borrower is jointly and severally liable for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Lender and its successors and

assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing to Lender by each other Borrower. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that its obligations under this Article IX shall not be discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations has occurred, and that its obligations under this Article IX shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by,

(i) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Borrower is or may become a party;

(ii) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Article IX) or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Lender with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

(iii) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its Lien against, any security for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);

(iv) the insolvency of any Borrower Party; or

(v) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

Each Borrower shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Obligations guaranteed hereunder.

(b) Each Borrower expressly represents and acknowledges that it is part of a common enterprise with the other Borrowers and that any financial accommodations by Lender, to any other Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are and will be of direct and indirect interest, benefit and advantage to all Borrowers. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that, for purposes of the Loan Documents, it receives a benefit from the availability of credit under this Agreement to all of the Borrowers.

Section 9.02 Waivers by the Borrowers. Each Borrower expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel Lender to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Borrower Party, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower and Lender that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Article and such waivers, Lender would decline to enter into this Agreement. Each of the Borrowers waives all defenses arising under the laws of suretyship; to the extent such laws are applicable, in connection with its joint and several obligations under this Agreement.

Section 9.03 Benefit of Guaranty. Each Borrower agrees that the provisions of this Article are for the benefit of Lender and its successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Borrower and Lender, the obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents.

Section 9.04 Subordination of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, and except as set forth in Section 9.07, each Borrower hereby expressly and irrevocably subordinates to payment of the Obligations any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Article IX, and that Lender and its successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Article IX.

Section 9.05 Election of Remedies. If Lender may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving Lender a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by any Borrower or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Article IX. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such action by Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that each Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of the Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the Loan Documents, Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Lender but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Article IX, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

Section 9.06 Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability under this Article IX shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of:

(a) the amount of the Loan advanced to such Borrower;

(b) the net amount the Loan advanced to another Borrower under this Agreement and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower; and

(c) the amount that could be claimed by Lender from such Borrower under this Article IX without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar foreign or domestic statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Borrower’s right of contribution and indemnification from each other Borrower under Section 9.07.

Section 9.07 Contribution with Respect to Guaranty Obligations.

(a) To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under this Article IX of all or any of the Obligations (other than the portion of the Loan made to that Borrower for which it is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Borrower’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Borrowers as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations, such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

(b) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Article IX without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

(c) This Section 9.07 is intended only to define the relative rights of Borrowers and nothing set forth in this Section 9.07 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 9.01. Nothing contained in this Section 9.07 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay the portion of the Loan made directly or indirectly to that Borrower and accrued interest, fees and expenses with respect thereto for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable.

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Borrowers to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

(e) The rights of the indemnifying Borrowers against other Borrowers under this Section 9.07 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations.

Section 9.08 Liability Cumulative. The liability of Borrowers under this Article IX is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Borrower to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other Borrowers, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

Section 9.09 Accommodation. It is understood and agreed that the handling of this credit facility on a joint borrowing basis as set forth in this Agreement is solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers and at their request. Accordingly, Lender is entitled to rely, and shall be exonerated from any liability for relying upon, any request made by a purported officer of any Borrower without the need for any consent or other authorization of any other Borrower and upon any information or certificate provided on behalf of any Borrower by a purported officer of such Borrower.

Section 9.10 Independent Obligations. The obligation of each Borrower hereunder is independent of the obligation of each other Borrower and, in the event of any event of default under the Loan Documents, a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Borrower whether or not said Borrower is the alter ego of another Borrower or any Guarantor and whether or not any other Borrower or any Guarantor is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against any other Borrower or any Guarantor. Lender’s rights hereunder shall not be exhausted until all of the Obligations have been fully paid and performed.

Section 9.11 Fraudulent Conveyance. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, it is the intention of the Borrowers and Lender that the Borrowers’ Obligations hereunder or any liens or security interest granted by any Borrower securing this Agreement not be a Fraudulent Conveyance as defined below. Consequently, Lender and Borrowers agree that if the liability of any Borrower hereunder or any liens or security interests granted by such Borrower securing its obligations hereunder would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance which could be set aside as of the date of such determination, the liability of such Borrower and the liens and security interests granted by such Borrower securing this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable only to the extent of the Maximum Obligation and the liability of said Borrower under this Agreement shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly. For purposes of this provision, the “Maximum Obligation” shall mean the aggregate amount due hereunder, but in no event higher than the maximum amount for which that Borrower could be liable hereunder without rendering its obligation hereunder or the granting of liens and security interests in connection herewith void under applicable law as a Fraudulent Conveyance. A “Fraudulent Conveyance” shall mean a fraudulent conveyance under title 11 of the United States Code as amended or under applicable state law regarding fraudulent conveyances, fraudulent transfer or other similar law in effect from time to time. In making such determination, the parties agree that the Maximum Obligation may increase from time to time as the maximum amount for which any Borrower could be liable without rendering its obligations hereunder void under applicable law as a Fraudulent Conveyance increases.

ARTICLE X

Section 10.02 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right or remedy hereunder and no course of dealing between Borrowers and Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the Note preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy hereunder.

No notice to or demand on Borrowers not required hereunder or under any other Loan Document in any case shall entitle Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

Section 10.03 Successors and Assigns; Sale of Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto; provided that Borrowers may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender, other than to the extent expressly permitted by the Security Instruments. Lender may sell, assign, or sell or grant participations in all or any part of Lender’s rights, title or interests hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement without the prior written consent of Borrowers; provided, however that any such assignment or sale shall not increase any of the obligations of Borrowers under the Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement.

Section 10.07 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 10.08 Effectiveness; Survival.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective on the date on which all of the parties hereto shall have signed a copy hereof (whether the same or different copies) and Lender shall have received the same.

(b) All representations and warranties made herein, in the certificates, reports, notices, and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Environmental Indemnification Agreement, and such other agreements and documents, the making of the Loan hereunder and the execution and delivery of the Note, and shall terminate at such time as the Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full; provided, however, that the Environmental Indemnification Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof notwithstanding any payment and dissatisfaction of the Obligations.

Section 10.09 Severability. In case any provision in or Obligation under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnification Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 10.10 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitation of, another covenant, shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. To the extent any of the terms of this Agreement conflicts with the terms of the other Loan Documents, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

Section 10.11 Headings Descriptive. The headings of the several sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 10.12 Termination of Agreement. At such time as all Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full, this Agreement shall terminate; provided however, that any and all indemnity obligations of Borrowers to Lender arising hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, which are expressly stated to survive satisfaction of the Obligations shall survive the termination of this Agreement or such other Loan Documents, and provided further that all indemnity obligations under the Environmental Indemnification Agreement shall survive such payment and satisfaction of the Obligations to the extent contemplated in the Environmental Indemnification Agreement.

Section 10.13 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Environmental Indemnification Agreement constitute the entire agreement between Borrowers and Lender with respect to the Loan, the other Obligations and the Collateral and

supersede all prior agreements, representations and understandings related to such subject matters.

Section 10.14 Jury Trial Waiver; Consent to Forum.

(a) TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT OF TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS OR ANY MATTER ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

(b) EACH BORROWER ALSO AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS OR TO ENFORCE ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED AGAINST SUCH BORROWER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, MAY BE BROUGHT BY LENDER IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN THE COUNTY OF THE STATE IN WHICH LENDER’S ADDRESS SHOWN ABOVE IS LOCATED, OR IN ANY ONE OR MORE OTHER STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN ANY COUNTY AND STATE IN WHICH ANY OF THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED. EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS, AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE OBJECTION TO VENUE IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS.
