B. As a condition to Lender’s making the Loan, Lender is requiring that Guarantor execute and deliver to Lender this Guaranty; and
C. Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it will materially benefit from Lender’s agreeing to make the Loan;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth herein and as an inducement for and in consideration of the agreement of Lender to make the Loan pursuant to the Loan Agreement, Guarantor hereby agrees, covenants, represents and warrants to Lender as follows:
1. Definitions.
(a) All capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings given such terms in the Loan Agreement.
(b) The term “Guaranteed Obligations” means (i) Borrower’s Recourse Liabilities (the “Recourse Liability Guaranteed Obligations”), (ii) in addition to and without limiting the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty with respect to the Recourse Liability Guaranteed Obligations, payment and performance in full of (A) the Required Repairs, (B) all Taxes and Insurance Premiums, (C) all Capital Expenses and work relating thereto, and (D) all Approved Leasing Expenses with respect to Leases hereafter executed and all work relating thereto, and (iii) from and after the date that any Springing Recourse Event occurs, payment of the entire unpaid balance of the Debt (and whether accrued prior to, on or after such date).

Guarantor and Lender hereby acknowledge and agree that the respective amounts of the Rollover Reserve Offset Amount, the Required Repairs Reserve Offset Amount, the Tax and Insurance Reserve Offset Amount, and/or the Capital Reserve Offset Amount may be adjusted as provided in the Loan Agreement (whether increased and/or decreased, all as more specifically set forth therein) one or more times, from time to time while the Loan is outstanding, and such adjustments will result in corresponding increases and/or decreases in the Guaranty Limit Amount, all in accordance with, and subject to, the applicable terms and provisions set forth in the Loan Agreement.
2. Guaranty and Agreement.
(a) Guarantor hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Lender the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due of the Guaranteed Obligations. In addition to and without limiting the foregoing, Guarantor hereby agrees to pay to Lender, upon Lender’s demand following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, an amount equal to the Guaranty Limit Amount as of the date of payment thereof, such Guaranty Limit Amount to be paid from separate funds of Guarantor and not from post-default cash flow from the Property.

(c) Guarantor hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless Lender from and against any and all costs, losses, liabilities, claims, causes of action, expenses and damages, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, which Lender may suffer or which otherwise may arise by reason of Borrower’s failure to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when due, irrespective of whether such costs, losses, liabilities, claims, causes of action, expenses or damages are incurred by Lender prior or subsequent to (i) Lender’s declaring the Principal, interest and other sums evidenced or secured by the Loan Documents to be due and payable, (ii) the commencement or completion of a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure of the Mortgage or (iii) the conveyance of all or any portion of the Property by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.

3. Representations and Warranties. Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Lender as follows (which representations and warranties shall be given as of the date hereof and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Guaranty):
(a) Organization, Authority and Execution. Guarantor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, and has all necessary power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as presently conducted or proposed to be conducted and to enter into and perform this Guaranty and all other agreements and instruments to be executed by it in connection herewith. This Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by Guarantor.
(b) Enforceability. This Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor, enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.
(c) No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of its obligations under this Guaranty has been duly authorized by all necessary action, and do not and will not violate any law, regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental body, agency or other instrumentality applicable to Guarantor, or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any mortgage, lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of the assets of Guarantor pursuant to the terms of Guarantor’s articles of organization, or any mortgage, indenture, agreement or instrument to which Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound. Guarantor is not in default under any other guaranty which it has provided to Lender.
(d) No Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or at equity, pending or, to Guarantor’s best knowledge, threatened against or affecting Guarantor or which involve or might involve the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty or which might materially adversely affect the financial condition of Guarantor or the ability of Guarantor to perform any of its obligations under this Guaranty. Guarantor is not in default beyond any applicable grace or cure period with respect to any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority which might materially adversely affect the financial condition of Guarantor or the ability of Guarantor to perform any of its obligations under this Guaranty.
(e) Consents. All consents, approvals, orders or authorizations of, or registrations, declarations or filings with, all Governmental Authorities (collectively, the “Consents”) that are required in connection with the valid execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty have been obtained and Guarantor agrees that all Consents required in connection with the carrying out or performance of any of Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty will be obtained when required.
(f) Financial Statements and Other Information. All financial statements of Guarantor heretofore delivered to Lender are true and correct in all material respects and fairly present the financial condition of Guarantor as of the respective dates thereof, and no materially adverse change has occurred in the financial conditions reflected therein since
3
the respective dates thereof. None of the aforesaid financial statements or any certificate or statement furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Guarantor in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and none of the representations and warranties in this Guaranty contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein or herein not misleading. Guarantor is not insolvent within the meaning of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable law, code or regulation and the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty will not render Guarantor insolvent.
(g) Consideration. Guarantor is the owner, directly or indirectly, of legal and beneficial equity interests in Borrower, and as such will materially benefit from the making of the Loan.
4. Financial Statements. Guarantor shall deliver to Lender, (a) within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of Guarantor, a complete copy of Guarantor’s annual financial statements, (b) if requested by Lender, within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Guarantor, financial statements (including a balance sheet as of the end of such fiscal quarter, a statement of income and expense for such fiscal quarter and a calculation of Guarantor’s Net Worth, Liquid Net Worth and Aggregate Debt Leverage Ratio as of the end of such fiscal quarter) certified by Guarantor and in form, content, level of detail and scope reasonably satisfactory to Lender, and (c) 20 days after request by Lender, such other financial information with respect to Guarantor as Lender may reasonably request.
5. Unconditional Character of Obligations of Guarantor.
(a) The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability, in whole or in part, of the other Loan Documents or any provision thereof, or the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the existence in the Loan Documents of any so-called non-recourse provision or any other provision therein purporting to limit in whole or in part the recourse available against the Borrower, the recovery of any judgment against Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of the obligations of Borrower under the other Loan Documents or Guarantor under this Guaranty, or any setoff, counterclaim, and irrespective of any other circumstances which might otherwise limit recourse against Guarantor by Lender or constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or surety. Lender may enforce the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty by a proceeding at law, in equity or otherwise, independent of any loan foreclosure or similar proceeding or any deficiency action against Borrower or any other Person at any time, either before or after an action against the Property or any part thereof, Borrower or any other Person. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely a guaranty of collection. Guarantor waives diligence, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, filing of claims with any court, any proceeding to enforce any provision of any other Loan Document, against Guarantor, Borrower or any other Person, any right to require a proceeding first against Borrower or any other Person, or to exhaust any security (including, without limitation, the Property) for the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of Borrower or any other Person, or any protest,
4
presentment, notice of default or other notice or demand whatsoever (except to the extent expressly provided to the contrary in this Guaranty).
(b) The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty, and the rights of Lender to enforce the same by proceedings, whether by action at law, suit in equity or otherwise, shall not be in any way affected by any of the following:
(i) any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, receivership, conservatorship, winding up or other similar proceeding involving or affecting Borrower, the Property or any part thereof, Guarantor or any other Person;
(ii) any failure by Lender or any other Person, whether or not without fault on its part, to perform or comply with any of the terms of the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Documents, or any document or instrument relating thereto;
(iii) the sale, transfer or conveyance of the Property or any interest therein to any Person, whether now or hereafter having or acquiring an interest in the Property or any interest therein and whether or not pursuant to any foreclosure, trustee sale or similar proceeding against Borrower or the Property or any interest therein;
(iv) the conveyance to Lender, any Affiliate of Lender or Lender’s nominee of the Property or any interest therein by a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure;
(v) the release of Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents by operation of law or otherwise; or
(vi) the release in whole or in part of any collateral for any or all Guaranteed Obligations or for the Loan or any portion thereof.
(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably waives all defenses in an action brought by Lender to enforce this Guaranty based on claims of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise and all setoffs, reductions, or impairments, whether arising hereunder or otherwise.
(d) Lender may deal with Borrower and Affiliates of Borrower in the same manner and as freely as if this Guaranty did not exist and shall be entitled, among other things, to grant Borrower or any other Person such extension or extensions of time to perform any act or acts as may be deemed advisable by Lender, at any time and from time to time, without terminating, affecting or impairing the validity of this Guaranty or the obligations of Guarantor hereunder.
(e) No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal, release or other change of, or waiver, consent, delay, omission, failure to act or other action with respect to, any liability or obligation under or with respect to, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of, the Loan Documents shall in any way alter, impair or affect any of
5
the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, and Guarantor agrees that if any Loan Document is modified with Lender’s consent, the Guaranteed Obligations shall automatically be deemed modified to include such modifications.
(f) Lender may proceed to protect and enforce any or all of its rights under this Guaranty by suit in equity or action at law, whether for the specific performance of any covenants or agreements contained in this Guaranty or otherwise, or to take any action authorized or permitted under applicable law, and shall be entitled to require and enforce the performance of all acts and things required to be performed hereunder by Guarantor. Each and every remedy of Lender shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.
(g) No waiver shall be deemed to have been made by Lender of any rights hereunder unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender, and any such waiver shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific matter involved and shall in no way impair the rights of Lender or the obligations of Guarantor to Lender in any other respect or at any other time.
(h) At the option of Lender, Guarantor may be joined in any action or proceeding commenced by Lender against Borrower in connection with or based upon any other Loan Documents and recovery may be had against Guarantor in such action or proceeding or in any independent action or proceeding against Guarantor to the extent of Guarantor’s liability hereunder, without any requirement that Lender first assert, prosecute or exhaust any remedy or claim against Borrower or any other Person, or any security for the obligations of Borrower or any other Person.
(i) Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment is made by Borrower or Guarantor to Lender and such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Lender (as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion) upon insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, receivership, conservatorship, winding up or other similar proceeding involving or affecting Borrower or Guarantor, all as though such payment had not been made.
(j) In the event that Guarantor shall advance or become obligated to pay any sums under this Guaranty or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or in the event that for any reason whatsoever Borrower or any subsequent owner of the Property or any part thereof is now, or shall hereafter become, indebted to Guarantor, Guarantor agrees that (i) the amount of such sums and of such indebtedness and all interest thereon shall at all times be subordinate as to lien, the time of payment and in all other respects to all sums, including principal and interest and other amounts, at any time owed to Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment thereof until all principal, interest and other sums due pursuant to the Loan Documents have been paid in full. Nothing herein contained is intended or shall be construed to give Guarantor any right of subrogation in or under the Loan Documents or any right to participate in any way therein, or in the right, title or interest of Lender in or to any collateral for the Loan, notwithstanding any payments made by Guarantor under this Guaranty, until the actual and irrevocable receipt by Lender of payment in
6
full of all principal, interest and other sums due with respect to the Loan or otherwise payable under the Loan Documents. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when any such sums due and owing to Lender shall not have been fully paid, such amount shall be paid by Guarantor to Lender for credit and application against such sums due and owing to Lender.
(k) Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall survive a foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or similar proceeding involving the Property and the exercise by Lender of any or all of its remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents and Guarantor expressly agrees that to the extent necessary to satisfy its obligations under Section 2 hereof, it shall be and remain liable for any deficiency remaining after foreclosure of any Mortgage or security interest securing the Note, notwithstanding provisions of applicable law or the Loan Documents that may prevent the Lender from enforcing such deficiency against the Borrower.
