4 CERTAIN COVENANTS WITH RESPECT TO FLOATING RATE BOND
TRANSACTIONS.
With respect to each Floating Rate Bond Transaction, the
Borrowers agree and covenant with ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae that, at all times during the term
of this Agreement:
(a) PREPAYMENT OF MORTGAGE LOANS IN FLOATING RATE BOND
TRANSACTIONS. If a Borrower elects, or is required, to prepay any Related
Mortgage Note in whole or in part, subject to and in accordance with the terms
and conditions of such Related Mortgage Note, the Borrowers shall be obligated
to pay all amounts, if any, due under or in connection with the Related Bonds
that will not have been paid as a result of the prepayment of such Related
Mortgage Note, including accrued interest on the Related Bonds to the date of
redemption (calculated at the Maximum Rate to the extent and for the period
that such Related Bonds bear interest at the Variable Rate), and the premium,
if any, payable to the applicable Bondholders by reason of such redemption,
until such Related Bonds have been redeemed in accordance with the Related Bond
Documents, together with and in addition to, any prepayment premium due
pursuant to the Related Mortgage Note. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in the Transaction Documents, the Borrowers shall not make a
voluntary prepayment of any Mortgage Loan in a Floating Rate Bond Transaction
that would result in a redemption of all or any part of any Related Bonds
pursuant to the Related Indenture unless (i) the Borrowers have deposited with
the Related Trustee on or prior to the date on which such Related Trustee will
call the applicable Related Bonds for redemption, all amounts required for such
redemption, (ii) the Borrowers have received the prior written consent of
▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇; provided that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae shall not withhold its consent if ▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇ determines that (A) such prepayment by the Borrowers is permitted by the
terms of the Related Mortgage, and (B) in light of such opinions of legal
counsel, opinions of certified public accountants that prepare the audited
financial statements of the Borrowers and Guarantor and such other similar
information and opinions as may be provided by the Borrowers to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae, no
part of any payments made by the Borrowers prior to or concurrently with the
voluntary prepayment will likely result in an avoidance or any other recovery
or disgorgement pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code (including sections 544, 547,
549 or 550 thereof) or any other applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law which
would result in ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ having any liability under any Related ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae
Collateral Agreement, or the Borrowers provide cash collateral or makes other
arrangements acceptable to
62
64
▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ in its discretion to ameliorate such risk of avoidance, recovery or
disgorgement, and (iii) with respect to the prepayment in part or in full
(other than a prepayment in connection with a mandatory application of
Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds) of the Facility Amount prior to
the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Facility, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae has received a
Prepayment Premium pursuant to the Related Mortgage Note.
(b) INTEREST RESERVE REQUIREMENT WITH RESPECT TO FLOATING
RATE BOND TRANSACTIONS. The Borrowers shall deposit with the Related Trustee
with respect to each Floating Rate Bond Transaction, on or before the date the
Related Mortgage Note is executed and delivered, for deposit into the Interest
Account with respect to each Floating Rate Bond Transaction, the Interest
Reserve Requirement for such Floating Rate Bond Transaction. If the Interest
Account with respect to a Floating Rate Bond Transaction is not otherwise
replenished to the Interest Reserve Requirement for such Floating Rate Bond
Transaction from the receipt of the monthly payments under the Related Mortgage
Note pursuant to the Related Indenture, the Borrowers shall promptly deposit
with the Related Trustee the amount necessary for amounts on deposit in such
Interest Account to equal the Interest Reserve Requirement for such Floating
Rate Bond Transaction.
(c) PRINCIPAL RESERVE FUND. The Borrowers agree that as
a condition to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae's executing and delivering the Related ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae
Collateral Agreement, the Borrowers shall fund, and replenish, the applicable
Principal Reserve Fund with respect to each Floating Rate Bond Transaction as
and when required by the Related Mortgage Note and this Agreement. The
Borrowers acknowledge that the Related Mortgage Note for each Initial Bond
Property provides that the obligation to fund the applicable Principal Reserve
Fund shall commence on July 1, 2006, and that prior to such time, the Borrowers
shall not be required to fund the such Principal Reserve Fund; provided,
however, that, the commencement date of the Borrowers' obligation to fund the
Principal Reserve Fund relating to each New Bond Property entering the ▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇ Credit Facility as a Floating Rate Bond Transaction, shall be determined by
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae in its discretion. The Borrowers agree that they shall replenish
each Principal Reserve Fund by delivery to the Related Trustee the amount equal
to any loss from the investment of amounts on deposit in such Principal Reserve
Fund, as and when such loss is incurred and irrespective of the reason for such
loss. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that amounts on deposit in the
Principal Reserve Fund with respect to each Mortgage Loan in a Floating Rate
Bond Transaction shall be applied toward the mandatory redemption of the
Related Bonds, and the corresponding reduction of amounts owed under the
Related Mortgage Note, as and to the extent provided in the Related Indenture.
The Borrowers further acknowledge and agree that, as provided in the Related
Mortgage Note, the Mortgage Loan with respect to any Floating Rate Bond
Transaction shall not be deemed to have been amortized by reason of deposits
into the Principal Reserve Fund with respect to such Mortgage Loan until such
deposits have been withdrawn from such Principal Reserve Fund and applied to
the redemption of the Related Bonds as provided in the Related Indenture. So
long as no Event of Default or no Potential Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, investment income derived from amounts on deposit in the
Principal Reserve Funds shall be paid to the applicable Borrower by
63
65
the Related Trustees to the extent and in the manner provided in the Related
Indenture. At the request of the Borrowers, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ shall direct the
Related Trustee to apply funds in a particular Principal Reserve Fund to prepay
the principal amount of Related Bonds, if each of the following conditions are
met:
(i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
and
(ii) either (x) the Related Bonds are then bearing
interest at a Variable Rate, or (y) the Related Securities are then
bearing interest at a Reset Rate and the applicable Borrower has the
right under the Related Indenture to prepay the Related Bonds.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or a
Potential Event of Default, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae shall have the absolute right, in its
discretion, to apply the funds in the Principal Reserve Funds in accordance
with section 7.2(d).
(d) INTEREST RATE ADJUSTMENTS IN FLOATING RATE BOND
TRANSACTIONS. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ and each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees
that the interest rate on any issue of Related Bonds in a Floating Rate Bond
Transaction may be adjusted to the Variable Rate or Reset Rate or converted to
the Fixed Rate, in each case as provided in, and subject to the terms and
conditions of, the Related Indenture and this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, so long as the Related ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae Collateral Agreement remains in
effect and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ has any obligations, direct or contingent, under such
Related ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ Collateral Agreement, no Borrower shall direct or cause the
interest rate on any Related Bonds to be converted to the Fixed Rate (from the
Variable Rate or the Reset Rate), to the Reset Rate (from the Variable Rate or
a prior Reset Rate) or to the Variable Rate (from the a Reset Rate) unless
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae consents to such conversion. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ will consent to such
conversion (and deliver written evidence of such consent to the Related Trustee
in accordance with the requirements of the Related Indenture), if:
(i) in the case of a conversion to the Fixed Rate, (A) no
Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, (B) such Borrower complies with the terms and conditions
of sections 3.2 and 4.2, (C) the Fixed Rate applicable to such Related
Bonds is equal to or less than the Hedge Rate, (D) such Borrower shall
have given ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae not less than sixty (60) days prior written
notice of its intent to convert to the Fixed Rate and (E) such
Borrower shall have given ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ not less than fifty (50) days
prior final written notice and confirmation of its election to convert
to the Fixed Rate; or
(ii) in the case of conversion to the Reset Rate, (A) no
Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, (B) such Borrower complies with the terms and conditions
of sections 3.2 and 4.2, (C) the Reset Rate on such Related Bonds is
equal to or less than the Hedge Rate, (D) such Borrower shall have
given ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice of
its intent to convert to the Reset
64
66
Rate and (E) such Borrower shall have given ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ not less than
fifty (50) days prior final written notice and confirmation of its
election to convert to the Reset Rate; or
(iii) in the case of conversion to the Variable Rate, (A)
no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, (B) such Borrower complies with the terms and conditions
of sections 3.2 and 4.2, (C) such Borrower shall have given ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae

▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ not less than fifty (50) days prior final written notice
and confirmation of its election to convert to the Variable Rate.
(e) REMOVAL OF REMARKETING AGENT. With respect to each
Floating Rate Bond Transaction, the Borrowers agree that (i) after the
occurrence of any Event of Default or (ii) if, at any time, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae
determines that there is a basis in fact for the removal of the then existing
Remarketing Agent with respect to such Floating Rate Bond Transaction and the
designation of a new Remarketing Agent with respect to such Floating Rate Bond
Transaction, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ so directs, the Borrowers immediately shall take
such action as is required under the Related Remarketing Agreement to remove
the existing Remarketing Agent with respect to such Floating Rate Bond
Transaction and replace such Remarketing Agent, without interruption of
service, with a Remarketing Agent acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae. The Borrowers
acknowledge and agree that any Remarketing Agent's failure to perform any of
its duties or obligations under or with respect to the Related Indenture or the
Related Remarketing Agreement, including, failure to give or deliver any notice
or information required under the Related Indenture or the Related Remarketing
Agreement, shall constitute sufficient basis in fact for such Remarketing
Agent's removal.
(f) CHANGES IN REMARKETING AGENT OR REMARKETING
AGREEMENT. The Borrowers agree that no Borrower will change any Remarketing
Agent, or appoint or engage any Person as a Remarketing Agent or change the
fees payable to any Remarketing Agent, without ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae's prior written
consent.
(g) ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS TO THE RELATED TRUSTEES. With
respect to each Floating Rate Bond Transaction, the Borrowers acknowledge and

III.
FINANCIAL COVENANTS; INTEREST RATE PROTECTION;
CASH MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
1 BORROWERS' FINANCIAL COVENANTS.
(a) FINANCIAL COVENANTS WITH RESPECT TO UNHEDGED BONDS. With
respect to each issue of Unhedged Bonds, the Borrowers shall not be required to
comply with the interest rate protection provisions set forth in section 3.2 of
this Agreement if ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ determines, in its discretion, that as of each
Determination Date all of the following conditions are satisfied (the "HEDGE
TESTS"):
(i) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default
exists as of such Determination Date;
(ii) the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio as of such
Determination Date shall be equal to or less than the Maximum LTV
Percentage;
(iii) the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio on a
combined basis for the twelve (12) month period ending within sixty
(60) days of the date this test is applied shall equal or exceed the
Minimum DSC Ratio.
The Borrowers shall deliver to Servicer all information necessary to calculate
the Hedge Tests at least sixty (60) days prior to each Determination Date. If
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae determines that any of the Hedge Tests set forth in clauses (i)
through (iii) above are not satisfied as of any Determination Date (a "HEDGE
TEST FAILURE"), the Borrowers shall be required, within ten (10) Business Days
of Borrowers' receipt of notice (a "HEDGE TEST NOTICE") from ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ or
Servicer specifying the Hedge Test Failure, to obtain a Hedge satisfying all of
the requirements of section 3.2 of this Agreement for each of the Mortgage
Loans with respect to Unhedged Bonds; provided, however, that if such Hedge
Test Failure consists of a failure to satisfy either the loan to value test set
forth in clause (ii) above and/or the debt service coverage test set forth in
clause (iii) above, the Borrowers may cure such Hedge Test Failure by providing
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae with Shortfall Cash Collateral in an amount at least equal to the
amount by which the Bonds would have to be theoretically reduced in order for
the Borrowers to satisfy such Hedge Tests. Such Shortfall Cash Collateral
shall be released by Fannie Mae if and to the extent that Fannie Mae determines
on any subsequent annual Determination Date that the Hedge Tests are satisfied
without including such Shortfall Cash Collateral. If Fannie Mae or the
Servicer is not able to or does not perform the Hedge Tests on any
Determination Date because the Borrowers have failed to provide the necessary
information at least sixty (60) days prior to such Determination Date, then a
Hedge Test Failure shall be deemed to have occurred and the Borrowers shall be
required, within ten (10) Business Days of their receipt of a Hedge Test Notice
from Fannie Mae or
73
75
Servicer, to obtain a Hedge satisfying all of the requirements of section 3.2
of this Agreement for each of the Mortgage Loans with respect to Unhedged
Bonds.
(b) FINANCIAL COVENANTS WITH RESPECT TO CASH MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM. Prior to the occurrence of a Cash Management Triggering Event or a
Lock-Box Triggering Event, the Borrowers may collect the Gross Cash Flow from
all of the Properties directly from tenants and other Persons obligated to pay
such Gross Cash Flow. A "CASH MANAGEMENT TRIGGERING EVENT" shall have occurred
if, as of any Determination Date, the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as
determined by Fannie Mae on a combined basis for the twelve (12) month period
ending within sixty (60) days of the date this test is applied), including any
Shortfall Cash Collateral or Alternative DSC Shortfall Collateral previously
pledged by the Borrowers in accordance with section 3.1(c), falls below 1.45:1
(the "CASH MANAGEMENT TEST"). A "LOCK-BOX TRIGGERING EVENT" shall have
occurred if, as of any Determination Date, the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage
Ratio (as determined by Fannie Mae on a combined basis for the twelve (12)
month period ending within sixty (60) days of the date this test is applied),
including any Shortfall Cash Collateral or Alternative DSC Shortfall Collateral
previously pledged by the Borrowers in accordance with section 3.1(c), falls
below 1.25:1 (the "LOCK-BOX TEST"). Upon the occurrence of:
(i) a Cash Management Triggering Event, and at all times
thereafter but subject to section 3.1(c) below, the Borrowers shall
cause the Gross Cash Flow from all of the Properties to be deposited
into the Cash Management Account in accordance with the terms of the
Cash Management Agreement, which shall be entered into between the
Borrowers and Fannie Mae within ten (10) Business Days of Borrowers'
receipt of notice (a "CASH MANAGEMENT NOTICE") from Fannie Mae or
Servicer specifying that a Cash Management Triggering Event has
occurred. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Cash
Management Agreement imposes certain requirements and restrictions
upon Borrowers' rights, duties and obligations with respect to the
Gross Cash Flow of the Properties, including provisions requiring: (A)
the Cash Management Account to be established by the Borrowers in
Fannie Mae's name and under Fannie Mae's sole dominion and control;
(B) the Borrowers to grant Fannie Mae a perfected, first priority
security interest in and to the Cash Management Account and all of the
Cash Management System Collateral as security for Borrowers' payment
and performance of the Obligations; (C) that so long as no Event of
Default has occurred, Fannie Mae shall cause the Gross Cash Flow to be
withdrawn from the Cash Management Account on a daily basis and
transferred to an account established and controlled by Borrowers; and
(D) that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Fannie Mae shall
have the right to cancel all future transfers from the Cash Management
Account and to apply all funds deposited into the Cash Management
Account in payment of the outstanding Obligations of Borrowers; and
(ii) a Lock-Box Triggering Event and at all times thereafter,
the Borrowers shall cause all tenants of all of the Properties to make
rent payments directly to the financial
74
76
institution or institutions at which the Cash Management Account is
located and otherwise cause the Gross Cash Flow from all of the
Properties to be deposited directly into the Cash Management Account
in accordance with the terms of the Cash Management Agreement, which
shall be entered into between the Borrowers and Fannie Mae within five
(5) Business Days of Borrowers' receipt of notice (a "LOCK-BOX
NOTICE") from Fannie Mae or Servicer specifying that a Lock-Box
Triggering Event has occurred. Upon and at all times following a
Lock-Box Triggering Event, distributions from the Cash Management
Account shall be made only after the payment of debt service and such
other amounts as specified in the Cash Management Agreement.
The Borrowers shall deliver to Servicer all information necessary to calculate
the Cash Management Test and the Lock-Box Test at least sixty (60) days prior
to each Determination Date. If Fannie Mae or the Servicer is not able to or
does not perform the Cash Management Test or the Lock-Box Test on any
Determination Date because the Borrowers have failed to provide the necessary
information at least sixty (60) days prior to such Determination Date, then a
Lock-Box Triggering Event shall be deemed to have occurred and the Borrowers
shall be required to cause all tenants of all of the Properties to make rent
payments directly to the financial institution or institutions at which the
Cash Management Account is located and otherwise cause the Gross Cash Flow from
all of the Properties to be deposited directly into the Cash Management Account
in accordance with the terms of the Cash Management Agreement, which shall be
entered into between the Borrowers and Fannie Mae within five (5) Business Days
of Borrowers' receipt of a Lock-Box Notice from Fannie Mae or Servicer. In
addition, within thirty (30) days following the occurrence of a Cash Management
Triggering Event or a Lock-Box Triggering Event and in either case, execution
and delivery of the Cash Management Agreement, the Borrowers shall deliver or
cause to be delivered to Fannie Mae, one or more opinions, in form and
substance and delivered by counsel satisfactory to Fannie Mae in its
discretion, confirming that upon (A) creation of the Cash Management Account,
(B) delivery and acknowledgement of the "RESTRICTED ACCOUNT LETTER" (as defined
in the Cash Management Agreement) by the depository with respect to such Cash
Management Account, and (C) filing of the financing statements in accordance
with the requirements of the Cash Management Agreement, Fannie Mae shall have a
valid and perfected security interest in the Cash Management Account under the
laws of the state in which such Cash Management Account is located.
(c) BORROWERS' RIGHT TO POST ADDITIONAL COLLATERAL. Upon
their receipt of a Cash Management Notice, the Borrowers shall be entitled to
post additional collateral in the form of either (i) Shortfall Cash Collateral
in an amount at least equal to the difference between (x) the Net Operating
Income of all Properties as determined by Fannie Mae on the Determination Date
and (y) the actual amount of Net Operating Income required to satisfy the Cash
Management Test (such difference, the "CASH MANAGEMENT TEST SHORTFALL") or (ii)
an Additional Mortgaged Property ("ALTERNATIVE DSC SHORTFALL COLLATERAL")
pledged as collateral for the Fannie Mae Credit Facility in accordance with
section 5.4, provided, that such Alternative DSC Shortfall Collateral is
acceptable to Fannie Mae in its discretion and has annual Net Operating Income,
as
75
77
determined by Fannie Mae in its discretion, that is at least equal to the Cash
Management Test Shortfall. Such Shortfall Cash Collateral or Alternative DSC
Shortfall Collateral shall be released by Fannie Mae if and to the extent that
Fannie Mae determines on any subsequent annual Determination Date that the Cash
Management Test is satisfied without including such Shortfall Cash Collateral
or Alternative DSC Shortfall Collateral.
(d) CASH MANAGEMENT SYSTEM TAKE-OUT. The Borrowers and
Fannie Mae acknowledge and agree that following the occurrence of (i) a
Lock-Box Triggering Event or a Cash Management Triggering Event and (ii)
implementation of the cash management system as contemplated under the Cash
Management Agreement, Fannie Mae will agree to discontinue such cash management
system and terminate the Cash Management Agreement if Fannie Mae determines in
its discretion that as of any subsequent Determination Date (A) no Event of
Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B)
the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as determined by Fannie Mae on a
combined basis for the thirty-six (36) month period ending within sixty (60)
days of the date this test is applied), including any Shortfall Cash Collateral
or Alternative DSC Shortfall Collateral previously pledged by the Borrowers in
accordance with section 3.1(c), was equal to or in excess of 1.45:1.
(e) COSTS AND EXPENSES OF FINANCIAL TESTS. In each instance,
the Borrowers shall pay all of Fannie Mae's and Servicer's costs and expenses
(including reasonable legal fees and expenses, but excluding the internal
overhead expenses of Fannie Mae and Servicer, such as salaries and other
compensation of employees) incurred by Fannie Mae or Servicer in determining
whether the Hedge Test, the Cash Management Test or the Lock-Box Test have been
satisfied.
2 INTEREST RATE PROTECTION.
Subject to the limitations in section 3.1(a) applicable to the
Unhedged Bonds, the terms, conditions and provisions of this section 3.2 shall
apply to each issue of Related Bonds in a Floating Rate Bond Transaction.
(a) INTEREST RATE MODES. To protect against fluctuations
in interest rates no Related Bonds shall initially bear interest at or be
converted to: (i) the Fixed Rate unless the Fixed Rate applicable to such
Related Bonds is equal to or less than the Hedge Rate; (ii) the Reset Rate
unless (A) the Reset Rate applicable to such Related Bonds is equal to or less
than the Hedge Rate, and (B) the Reset Period with respect to such Related
Bonds is equal to or in excess of the Required Hedge Term, or such Reset Period
is less than the Required Hedge Term and the Borrowers shall obtain and
maintain at all times during such Reset Period a "forward" Swap or Cap in
accordance with section 3.2(c); or (iii) the Variable Rate unless the Borrowers
shall obtain, and maintain at all times during which the Related Bonds bear
interest at such Variable Rate, a Hedge in accordance with this section 3.2.
76
78
(b) VARIABLE RATE HEDGE REQUIREMENTS. If an issue of
Related Bonds is issued bearing interest at the Variable Rate, a Hedge must be
in place on the Bond Transaction Closing Date with respect to such issue for a
period of time equal to or in excess of the Required Hedge Term. Effective not
later than the last day of any Hedge Period, or the last day of any other
period that the Variable Rate and a Hedge are in effect, or the last day of any
Reset Period where the Related Bonds will subsequently bear interest at the
Variable Rate, the Borrowers shall either (i) secure a new Hedge for a period
of time equal to or in excess of the Required Hedge Term, (ii) adjust the
Related Bonds to a Reset Rate equal to or less than the Hedge Rate for a period
equal to or greater than the Subsequent Hedge Period, or (iii) convert the
Related Bonds to a Fixed Rate equal to or less than the Hedge Rate. Any
adjustment or conversion under the preceding clauses (ii) or (iii) shall be in
accordance with the Related Bond Documents and the related Bond Property Loan
Documents.
(c) RESET RATE HEDGE REQUIREMENTS. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, any Reset Period may be for a period less than
the Required Hedge Term if, prior to the commencement of such Reset Period, the
Borrowers shall obtain a "forward" Swap or Cap that: (i) has an initial
"calculation period" that begins on the date that such Reset Period ends, and
that ends on the date that is the last day of the Required Hedge Term; (ii) if
a "forward" Cap, has been fully paid for by Borrowers, and if a "forward" Swap,
is not subject to any unpaid fees or expenses; and (ii) otherwise complies with
the requirements of this section 3.2.
(d) GENERAL HEDGE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Each Hedge
shall be (i) obtained on terms and conditions approved by Fannie Mae in its
discretion, (ii) evidenced and governed by Hedge Documents in form and
substance acceptable to Fannie Mae in its discretion and (iii) with a
counterparty acceptable to Fannie Mae in its discretion (a "COUNTERPARTY").
Except as provided in section 3.2(e), if any Hedge required under this
Agreement constitutes a Swap, such Swap shall provide for a fixed rate of
interest equal to or less than the Hedge Rate, and if any Hedge required under
this Agreement constitutes a Cap, such Cap shall require the Counterparty with
respect thereto to make interest payments equal to the amount by which the
notional interest rate payable under the terms of the Hedge Documents with
respect to such Cap exceeds the Hedge Rate.
(e) SPECIAL HEDGE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. If the
Borrowers are unable to obtain a Hedge with a fixed rate of interest (with
respect to a Swap) or a notional interest rate (with respect to a Cap) that is
equal to or less than the Hedge Rate, the Borrowers may obtain a Hedge (a
"SHORTFALL HEDGE") at an interest rate in excess of the Hedge Rate if the
Borrowers provide Fannie Mae with Shortfall Cash Collateral in an amount at
least equal to the aggregate amount of all interest that would accrue on the
initial notional principal amount of such Shortfall Hedge at an assumed
interest rate equal to the difference between the interest rate with respect to
such Shortfall Hedge and the Hedge Rate for the full term of such Shortfall
Hedge. Such Shortfall Cash Collateral shall be released by Fannie Mae upon the
expiration of the Hedge Period with respect to the Shortfall Hedge, provided,
however, that if the Related Bonds will bear interest at the Variable Rate or
in a Reset Period of less than the Required Hedge Term,
77
79
prior to any release of such Shortfall Cash Collateral, the Borrowers shall
have obtained a new Hedge with respect to such Related Bonds satisfying the
requirements of this section 3.2.
(f) HEDGE PAYMENT TERMS. Under each Swap arrangement,
the Counterparty shall pay a rate based on the PSA Municipal Swap Index (as
defined below) and the Borrowers shall pay a fixed rate to the Counterparty, in
each case based on the notional amount of the Swap. If the PSA Municipal Swap
Index is not published on any reset date under the Swap, the Counterparty must
determine an appropriate index as a substitute for the PSA Municipal Swap Index
on each such reset date. The index so determined shall equal the prevailing
rate determined by the Counterparty for bonds that are rated in the highest
short-term rating category by the Rating Agencies in respect of issuers of not
less than five (5) "high grade" component issuers selected by the Counterparty
which shall include, without limitation, issuers of general obligation bonds,
and that are subject to tender by holders thereof for purchase on not more than
seven (7) days notice and the interest on which is (i) variable, determined on
a weekly basis, (ii) excludable from gross income for federal income tax
purposes, and (iii) not subject to a "minimum tax" or similar tax. The PSA
Municipal Swap index rate is the rate determined on the basis of an index based
upon the weekly interest rate resets of tax-exempt variable rate issues
included in a database maintained by Municipal Market Data which meet specific
criteria established by the Public Securities Association.
(g) SECURITY INTEREST IN HEDGE PAYMENTS. Fannie Mae
shall be granted an enforceable, perfected, first priority lien on and security
interest in each Hedge, payments due under the Hedge (including scheduled and
termination payments) and each Custodial Account (as defined below) in order to
secure Borrowers' obligations to Fannie Mae under this Agreement pursuant to a
Hedge Security Agreement to be delivered by the Borrowers to Fannie Mae no
later than the commencement date of each Hedge Period with respect to each
Hedge required to be obtained under the terms of this Agreement. Pursuant to
the terms of the Hedge Security Agreement with respect to each Hedge, the
Counterparty with respect to such Hedge shall make all payments under such
Hedge (including any Termination Payments due from such Counterparty upon
termination of such Hedge) directly to a custodial account (the "CUSTODIAL
ACCOUNT") designated by Fannie Mae pursuant to such Hedge Security Agreement.
As provided in the applicable Hedge Security Agreement, each Custodial Account
with respect to a Swap shall be established in Fannie Mae's name and each
Custodial Account with respect to a Cap shall be established in the name of the
Related Trustee.
(h) CHANGE IN HEDGE. The Borrowers may change the type
of Hedge (i.e., from a Swap to a Cap or from a Cap to a Swap) which is in place
at any time with respect to the applicable Related Bonds so long as the
replacement Hedge and the new Counterparty complies with the terms of this
Agreement, including any consent or approval rights.
(i) TERMINATION. The Borrowers shall not terminate any
existing Hedge unless (i) either (x) the Borrowers shall have obtained Fannie
Mae's prior written consent to such termination, or (y) no Event of Default or
Potential Event of Default then exists and after such
78
80
termination the Borrowers will be in compliance with the requirements under
this Agreement relating to Hedges, and (ii) the Borrowers shall have paid all
"breakage" and termination fees (collectively, "TERMINATION PAYMENTS") due
under the applicable Hedge Documents.
(j) PERFORMANCE UNDER HEDGE DOCUMENTS. The Borrowers
agree to comply fully with, and to pay and otherwise perform when due, its
obligations under all applicable Hedge Documents and all other agreements
evidencing, governing and/or securing any Hedge arrangement contemplated under
this section 3.2; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not exercise
without Fannie Mae's prior written consent, and shall exercise at Fannie Mae's
direction, any rights or remedies under any Hedge Documents, including, if any
event of default then exists under the applicable Hedge Documents, the right of
termination. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Fannie Mae shall
not have any liability, responsibility, obligation or accountability for the
performance, payment or remittance of any of Borrowers' obligations or a
Counterparty's obligations under any Hedge or Hedge Document.
(k) FANNIE MAE RIGHT TO CONVERT TO RESET RATE, FIXED
RATE. The Borrowers shall with respect to each issue of Related Bonds, at
least seventy (70) days prior to the expiration date of each Hedge Period, give
notice, and provide evidence satisfactory, to Fannie Mae that the Borrowers
will either (i) secure a new Hedge with respect to such Related Bonds, or (ii)
adjust such Related Bonds to a Reset Rate for a period not shorter than five
(5) years, or (iii) convert such Related Bonds to the Fixed Rate, in each case
in accordance with this section 3.2. If Fannie Mae determines in its
discretion upon receipt of Borrowers' notice required pursuant to the preceding
sentence that additional evidence substantiating Borrowers' election is
necessary, Fannie Mae shall request such additional evidence within ten (10)
Business Days of its receipt of Borrowers' notice and the Borrowers shall
provide such additional evidence within five (5) Business Days of its receipt
of such request. If the Borrowers fail to timely provide the foregoing notice
and/or satisfactory evidence, Fannie Mae is hereby granted the right to direct
on behalf of the Borrowers (and the Borrowers hereby appoint Fannie Mae as
Borrowers' attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the
Borrowers, to make such direction, which power-of-attorney shall be irrevocable
and deemed coupled with an interest) that the interest rate on such Related
Bonds be (x) adjusted to a Reset Rate pursuant to the Related Indenture, (y)
converted to a Fixed Rate pursuant to the Related Indenture, or (z) adjusted
to, or remain at, the Weekly Variable Rate pursuant to the Related Indenture,
without a Hedge being in place (without waiving any right to declare an Event
of Default under this Agreement because of Borrowers' failure to comply with
the requirements of this section 3.2). Fannie Mae shall have the right at any
time to revoke any prior direction it may give in connection with any proposed
adjustment or conversion of the interest rate on any issue of Related Bonds as
contemplated above in this section 3.2 without waiving any of its rights under
this Agreement. A copy of any such direction or revocation of a direction
shall be given to the Borrowers promptly after it is issued. Fannie Mae shall
have the further right, in its discretion, to take no action upon Borrowers'
failure to provide timely notice and/or evidence as required by this section
3.2 or otherwise to comply with this section 3.2, without waiving any of its
rights under this Agreement.

14 APPLICATION FOR FANNIE MAE CREDIT ENHANCEMENT INSTRUMENTS.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement and subject to the condition that the Mortgage Loans be originated by
an independent third-party lender or issuer and comply with the other
requirements of the Fannie Mae Charter Act for multifamily loans, the Borrowers
hereby apply to Fannie Mae for and hereby request Fannie Mae (a) with respect
to each Fixed Rate Bond Transaction, to deliver to each Related Trustee for the
account of the Borrower, the Related Fannie Mae Pass-Through Certificate in the
Facility Amount, and (b) with respect to each Floating Rate Bond Transaction
and each Custodial Receipts Transaction, to execute and deliver the Related
Fannie Mae Collateral Agreement. While each Bond Transaction, each Custodial
Receipts Transaction and the Related Fannie Mae Credit Enhancement Instrument
represents a separate and independent obligation of each Borrower and Fannie
Mae, respectively, the Borrowers acknowledge that, in requesting Fannie Mae to
execute and deliver the Related Fannie Mae Credit Enhancement Instruments,
Borrowers intend that all of the obligations of the Borrowers arising under the
Bond Transactions and the Custodial Receipts Transactions be treated as if they
were a single, integrated Indebtedness of the Borrowers. Accordingly, the
Borrowers agree that if any of the Borrowers fails to pay fully, when due, any
amount payable under any Related Mortgage Note, any Custodial Receipts Mortgage
Note or any Custodial Receipts L/C Reimbursement Agreement or their respective
Related Mortgages, then Fannie Mae may elect to treat such unpaid amount as
being due and owing by the Borrowers on a joint and several basis, and such
amount may be realized upon on a pro rata basis or otherwise, in each case in
Fannie Mae's discretion, from the value each of the Properties and the other
Collateral. Similarly, if any of the Borrowers fails to pay fully, when due,
to Fannie Mae any other amount which such Borrowers is obligated to pay under
this Agreement, the unpaid amount shall be deemed to be due and owing by all of
the Borrowers on a joint and several basis, and such amount may be realized
upon on a pro rata basis or otherwise, in each case in Fannie Mae's discretion,
from the value each of the Properties and the other Collateral. It is a
material part of the consideration for Fannie Mae's agreement to execute and
deliver the Related Fannie Mae Credit Enhancement Instruments that the
Borrowers not be able to put one or more of the Mortgage Loans or the Custodial
Receipts Mortgage Loans in default without putting all such Mortgage Loans and
Custodial Receipts Mortgage Loans in default. Accordingly, the Borrowers
expressly agree that irrespective of the actual payments made by any Borrower
under the Mortgage Loans, the Custodial Receipts Mortgage Loans or this
Agreement, if the amount actually paid is not sufficient to pay fully and
timely all such obligations, then the failure to pay shall exist with respect
to all of the Mortgage Loans and Custodial Receipts Mortgage Loans
notwithstanding that the amount paid was sufficient to pay fully some but not
all of the amounts due and owing with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the
Custodial Receipts Mortgage Loans or other Obligations.

Inc. and has a Value equal to or greater than the product of 125% (the
"SUBSTITUTION PERCENTAGE") times the Minimum Substitute Property Value of the
Released Property;

(as determined by Fannie Mae in its discretion) for the twelve (12) month
period ending within sixty (60) days of the date this test is applied, equal to

discretion) of the Additional Mortgaged Property being released from the lien
for the corresponding twelve (12) month period multiplied by the Substitution
Percentage;
(c) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing;
(d) the applicable Borrower shall cause the Released
Property to be immediately conveyed by such Borrower to Guarantor, or such
other Person (other than another Borrower) as such Borrower may otherwise
determine;
(e) the New Additional Property meets all of Fannie Mae's
then applicable underwriting criteria for new loans secured by Multifamily
Residential Property;
(f) all documentation relating to the foregoing is
acceptable to Fannie Mae in its discretion in all respects, including legal
opinions, title insurance, Security Instruments, Replacement Reserve
Agreements, assignments and any amendments to this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents; and
96
98
(g) with respect to each proposed New Additional
Property, the Borrowers shall pay Fannie Mae and Servicer a due diligence fee
plus all costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses)
incurred by Fannie Mae or Servicer in connection with the foregoing. Such
amounts shall be paid by the Borrowers promptly upon receipt of invoices
therefor, and shall be payable regardless of whether the property substitution
does or does not (for any reason) ultimately occur.
3 RELEASE OF PROPERTIES.
A Property may be released from the lien of a Mortgage without
another Multifamily Residential Property being substituted therefor if each of
the following conditions are met:
(a) the Borrowers shall either redeem or otherwise remove
Bonds from the Fannie Mae Credit Facility and/or post cash collateral in a
manner acceptable to Fannie Mae in its discretion, in either case in an amount
equal to 110% of the Allocable Facility Amount of the Released Property (the
"RELEASE PRICE"). The Release Price requirement shall be satisfied by (i) if
the Released Property is a Bond Property, the amount of Related Bonds
outstanding with respect to such Bond Property immediately prior to such
release (provided, that, the requirements of section 5.3(c) have been
satisfied), plus (ii) the amount of any other Bonds redeemed by the Borrowers
to obtain such release, plus (iii) the amount of any letter of credit in form
and substance and provided by a financial institution satisfactory to Fannie
Mae in its discretion or any cash collateral deposited with Fannie Mae or its
designee and otherwise held in a manner approved by Fannie Mae in its
discretion ("RELEASE PRICE CASH COLLATERAL") and posted by the Borrowers to
obtain such release; and
(b) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing; and
(c) if the Released Property is a Bond Property, then
either (i) the Related Fannie Mae Credit Enhancement Instrument shall, subject
to subsection 5.3(h), terminate on or before the Released Property is released
from the lien of any Related Mortgage, or (ii) Fannie Mae, in its discretion,
shall have consented to the transfer of such Bond Property and the assumption
of the Related Mortgage Note, the Related Mortgage and the other related
Transaction Documents in accordance with section 5.6; and
(d) the applicable Borrower shall cause the Released
Property to be immediately conveyed by such Borrower to Guarantor or such other
Person (other than another Borrower) as such Borrower may determine; and
(e) if the Released Property is a Custodial Receipts
Property, then the Obligations of the Borrower with respect to such Custodial
Receipts Property shall be assumed
97
99
by Collateral Inc. pursuant to documentation in form and substance accepted to
Fannie Mae in its discretion, and such Borrower shall be released by Fannie Mae
from such Obligations pursuant to release documentation prepared by Fannie Mae
and reasonably acceptable to such Borrower; and
(f) all documentation relating to the foregoing is
acceptable to Fannie Mae in all respects, including legal opinions, release
documentation and any amendments to this Agreement or the other Transaction
Documents; and
(g) the Borrowers shall pay, with respect to each
Released Property, to Fannie Mae and Servicer, a due diligence fee plus all
costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by
Fannie Mae or Servicer in connection with the foregoing. Such amounts shall be
paid by the Borrowers promptly upon receipt of invoices therefor, and shall be
payable regardless of whether the property is or is not (for any reason)
ultimately released from the lien of a Mortgage; and
(h) Fannie Mae shall execute and deliver to the
appropriate Borrower (i) a release of the lien of the Related Mortgage in
recordable form and (ii) if the Released Property is a Custodial Receipts
Property, a partial release with respect to those portions of the pledged
collateral relating to such Custodial Receipts Property and pledged under the
Custodial Receipts Bond Pledge Agreement, provided, in each instance, that
Fannie Mae reasonably determines, in light of such opinions of certified public
accountants that prepare the audited financial statements of the appropriate
Borrower and such other similar information and opinions as may be provided by
such Borrower to Fannie Mae, that no part of any payments made by such Borrower
prior to or concurrently with the release of the lien of the Related Mortgage
will likely result in an avoidance or any other recovery or disgorgement
pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code (including sections 544, 547, 549 or 550
thereof) or any other applicable bankruptcy law which would result in Fannie
Mae having any liability under any Related Fannie Mae Collateral Agreement, or
such Borrower will provide cash collateral or make other arrangements
acceptable to Fannie Mae in its discretion to ameliorate such risk of
avoidance, recovery or disgorgement.
4 ADDITION OF NEW PROPERTIES TO THE CREDIT FACILITY.
(a) IN GENERAL. At the request of the Borrowers and
Servicer, Fannie Mae may, from time to time, consent to the addition of a New
Bond Property (and to the extent required to meet the underwriting requirements

a New Additional Property) to the Fannie Mae Credit Facility; provided,
however, that:
(i) such consent may be granted or withheld by Fannie Mae in
its discretion;
98
100
(ii) the underwriting with respect to each such New Property
shall be conducted by Servicer and reviewed by Fannie Mae and shall

Servicer and Fannie Mae in their discretion;
(iii) the terms and conditions relating to the addition of
such New Property shall be determined by Servicer and Fannie Mae in
their discretion;
(iv) all documentation deemed necessary by Servicer or Fannie
Mae for the making of a new loan, if applicable, and the addition of
such New Property shall be fully executed and delivered by each party

The addition of any New Bond Property and any New Additional Property to the
Credit Facility shall become effective only upon satisfaction of all of the
requirements set forth above and Fannie Mae's execution and delivery to the
Borrowers of a Confirmation of Addition of New Property, substantially in the
form of Exhibit H attached hereto (a "NEW PROPERTY CONFIRMATION"). Upon the
execution and delivery of the New Property Confirmation in accordance with this

Spring, Maryland and commonly known as Falkland Chase (the "FALKLAND CHASE
PROJECT") be added to the Fannie Mae Credit Facility as a new Floating Rate
Bond Transaction and that the bonds with respect to such Falkland Chase Bond

99
101

format") or Value of any proposed New Additional Property offered by
the Borrowers in connection with the Falkland Chase Bond Transaction,
will be equal to or less than 50%;
(v) the ratio of (A) the Net Operating Income of the
Falkland Chase Project plus (I) the Net Operating Income of any

for the addition of the Falkland Chase Project, and (II) the amount of
any Shortfall Cash Collateral (which, if the Shortfall Cash Collateral
is a letter of credit, has a term of at least one year and shall be in
an "evergreen format") but only to the extent such Shortfall Cash
Collateral is not included in the calculation of the loan to value
ratio pursuant to section 5.4(b)(iv), to (B) to the anticipated

provisions applicable to the existing Bonds and the
existing Mortgage Loans in Floating Rate Bond
Transactions;
(D) the maturity date of the mortgage loan with respect

cross-default and cross-collateralization provisions

is not included in the calculation of the
loan to value ratio pursuant to section
5.5(b)(iv)(B), for the twelve (12) month
period ending within sixty (60) days of the

Transaction Document requires, at stipulated dates or at the request of Fannie
Mae, the delivery by the Borrowers of certain notices, documents, certificates,

other Person as Fannie Mae may, from time to time, designate, and (b) act in
accordance with the instructions of Fannie Mae with respect to any such items
or any other rights Servicer may have under this Agreement or under any other

Fannie Mae to give or deliver to the Borrowers any notice or other
communications, or to receive from the Borrowers any document or other
information, may be given, delivered or received by Servicer, unless otherwise
directed by Fannie Mae. The Borrowers shall act in accordance with any

alternate credit enhancement unless prior to or simultaneously with the
effectiveness of such termination or replacement:
118
120
(a) Fannie Mae's Facility is replaced or terminated with
respect to all of the outstanding Bonds, and all of the Related Fannie Mae
Credit Enhancement Instruments are terminated in full except to the extent that

is addressed to Fannie Mae's satisfaction in accordance with the requirements

(d) Fannie Mae reasonably determines, in light of such
opinions of legal counsel, opinions of certified public accountants that
prepare the audited financial statements of the Borrowers and Guarantor and
such other similar information and opinions as may be provided by the Borrowers
to Fannie Mae, that no part of any payments made by the Borrowers prior to or
concurrently with the credit enhancement termination or replacement will likely
result in an avoidance or any other recovery or disgorgement pursuant to the
Bankruptcy Code (including sections 544, 547, 549 or 550 thereof) or any other
applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law which would result in Fannie Mae having
any liability under any Related Fannie Mae Collateral Agreement, or the
Borrowers will provide cash collateral or make other arrangements acceptable to
Fannie Mae in its discretion to ameliorate such risk of avoidance, recovery or
disgorgement; and
(e) the Borrowers shall have paid the Prepayment Premium
with respect to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the requirements of the
Related Mortgage Notes calculated based on the assumption that the Mortgage
Loan is being prepaid in full on the day immediately preceding the effective

2 REMEDIES.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, solely with
respect to subsection (d) below, upon the occurrence of a Potential Event of
Default, Fannie Mae may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to,
exercise any or all of the following remedies:
(a) declare all amounts payable by the Borrowers under
this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to be forthwith due and
payable, and the same shall thereupon
123
125
become due and payable without demand, presentment, protest or notice of any
kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived; or
(b) exercise all or any of its rights and remedies as it
may otherwise have under Applicable Law and under this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents or otherwise by such suits, actions, or special
proceedings in equity or at law, or by proceedings in the office of any board
or officer having jurisdiction, either for specific performance of any covenant
or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or
in aid or execution of any power therein granted or for the enforcement of any
proper legal or equitable remedy; or
(c) demand and the Borrowers shall provide cash
collateral or Government Obligations in the full amount of the outstanding
obligations under all of the Bonds whether or not due and payable; or
(d) apply all or any portion of the Collateral to any
Obligations or other obligation of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document, in such amounts, at such times and in such order as
determined by Fannie Mae in its discretion. The Borrowers acknowledge that
this may include, among other things, applying funds or directing any Related
Trustee to apply funds on deposit in a Principal Reserve Fund or the Cash
Management Account to prepay the applicable Related Securities or to prepay any
other Related Securities or reimbursement or other payment obligations under
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Such funds may be applied to
prepay or reduce amounts outstanding under one or more issues of Related
Securities regardless of whether such amounts are then due and owing; or
(e) deliver to the Related Trustees written notice that
an Event of Default has occurred under this Agreement and directing the Related
Trustees to take such action pursuant to the Transaction Documents as Fannie
Mae may determine, including a request that the Related Trustees declare the
principal of all or a portion of the Related Securities then outstanding and
the interest accrued thereon to be immediately due and payable in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the Related Indentures.
No failure or delay on the part of Fannie Mae to exercise any right or remedy
hereunder 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 any other
Transaction Document. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any remedies provided by law or under any Transaction Document.
No exercise by Fannie Mae of any remedy under any Transaction Document shall
operate as a limitation on any rights or remedies of Fannie Mae under this
Agreement.
In order to entitle Fannie Mae to exercise any remedy reserved to Fannie Mae in
this Article, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such
notice as may be required under the
124
126
applicable provisions of any of the Transaction Documents. The rights and
remedies of Fannie Mae specified in this Agreement are for the sole and
exclusive benefit, use and protection of Fannie Mae, and Fannie Mae is
entitled, but shall have no duty or obligation to the Borrowers, any Issuer,
any Related Trustee, any Bondholder with respect to any of the Bonds, or
otherwise, (a) to exercise or to refrain from exercising any right or remedy
reserved to Fannie Mae hereunder, or (b) to cause any Related Trustee or any
other party to exercise or to refrain from exercising any right or remedy
available to it under any of the Transaction Documents.

128
130
7 CONSENT OF FANNIE MAE.
If any provision of this Agreement provides for the approval,
consent, election, determination, exercise of discretion, choice, designation,
judgment or waiver of or by Fannie Mae and if a basis for Fannie Mae granting
such approval, consent, determination, election, exercise of discretion,
choice, designation, judgment or waiver is not otherwise stated (i.e., that
such approval, consent, election, determination, exercise of discretion,
choice, designation, judgment or waiver will be "reasonable"), then in each
case such approval, consent, determination, election, exercise of discretion,
choice, designation, judgment or waiver will be given by Fannie Mae in its sole
and absolute discretion.
8 GOVERNING LAW.
This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance
with, and the rights and remedies of the parties hereto shall be governed by,
the laws of the District of Columbia without regard to conflicts of law,
principles, except to the extent that Federal laws may prevail; provided,
however, that matters respecting the creation, perfection, priority and
foreclosure of the Lien on each Property granted pursuant to or in connection
with the Transaction Documents shall be governed by, and construed and enforced
in accordance with, the internal law of the state or commonwealth in which such
Property is situated without giving effect to the conflicts of law principles
of such state or commonwealth.
9 JURISDICTION, CONSENT TO SERVICE .
(a) Each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of any District of Columbia court or Federal court of the United
States of America sitting in the District of Columbia, and any appellate court
from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Agreement, the Bond Documents, the Mortgage Documents, the Custodial
Receipts Documents and every other Transaction Document, or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or
proceeding may be heard and determined in such District of Columbia court or,
to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties
hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment
or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall effect
any right that Fannie Mae may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement, the Bond Documents, the Mortgage Documents, the
Custodial Receipts Documents or the other Transaction Documents against any
Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any
objection which it may now or hereafter
129
131
have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, the Bond Documents, the Mortgage Documents, the
Custodial Receipts Documents or the other Transaction Documents in any District
of Columbia or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to
service of process in the manner provided for notices in section 8.3. Nothing
in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve
process in any other manner permitted by law.

TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ISSUE ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF
THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS TRIABLE BY A JURY AND (B) WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST.
THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS SEPARATELY GIVEN, KNOWINGLY AND
VOLUNTARILY WITH THE BENEFIT OF COMPETENT LEGAL COUNSEL BY EACH BORROWER, AND

EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, TO OWNER THAT FANNIE MAE WILL NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 8.10.
11 COUNTERPARTS.
This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which

132
12 SEVERABILITY.
Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited,
unenforceable or not authorized in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition,
unenforceability or nonauthorization without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof or affecting the validity, enforceability or legality of such
provision in any other jurisdiction and the remaining portion of such provision
and all other remaining provisions will be construed to render them enforceable
to the fullest extent. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations
to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid
provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
13 BUSINESS DAYS.
If any payment under this Agreement shall be specified to be
made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next
succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in any
case be included in computing interest, if any, in connection with such
payment.
14 ENTIRE AGREEMENT.
This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute
the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof.
Any previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
Nothing in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, expressed or
implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the respective parties
hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by
reason of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; provided, however,
that as to Persons other than Fannie Mae and the Borrowers that are parties to
any of the Transaction Documents, such Persons shall not have any rights,
remedies, obligations or liabilities under this Agreement or any of the
Transaction Documents except under such Transaction Documents as to which such
Persons are direct parties.

reasonably required in the opinion of Fannie Mae or its counsel to effectuate
the intention of or facilitate the performance of this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document.

The Borrowers shall not assign this Agreement, or delegate any
of the Obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of Fannie Mae.
This Agreement may not be transferred in any respect without the prior written
consent of Fannie Mae. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer any right upon
any holder of any Bond or any other Person other than the parties hereto and
their successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, Servicer shall be a third-party beneficiary
with respect to Borrowers' covenants and obligations under section 4.5.
18 WAIVER OF CLAIMS.
IN ORDER TO INDUCE FANNIE MAE TO EXECUTE AND DELIVER THE
AGREEMENTS, THE BORROWERS HEREBY REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT THEY HAVE NO

CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR IN
CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS. TO THE EXTENT ANY SUCH
CLAIMS, SET-OFFS OR DEFENSES MAY EXIST, WHETHER KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, THEY ARE EACH
HEREBY WAIVED AND RELINQUISHED IN THEIR ENTIRETY.
19 DISCLAIMER; ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
Approval by Fannie Mae of the Borrowers, the Mortgage Loans,
the Bonds or otherwise shall not constitute a warranty or representation by
Fannie Mae as to any matter. Nothing set forth in this Agreement, in any of
the Transaction Documents or in the subsequent conduct of the parties shall be
deemed to constitute Fannie Mae as the partner or joint venturer of any person
for any purpose whatsoever.
132
134
20 CONFLICTS BETWEEN AGREEMENTS.
Any terms and conditions contained in this Agreement that may
also be contained in any of the Related Mortgage Notes, any of the Related
Mortgages, any of the Reimbursement Loan Documents or any other Transaction
Document to which any of the Borrowers and Fannie Mae are parties, shall not,
to the extent reasonably practicable, be construed to be in conflict with each
other but rather shall be construed as duplicative, confirming, additional, or
cumulative provisions. To the extent that any ultimate conflict is determined
to exist between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and those set forth
in any of the Related Mortgage Notes, any of the Related Mortgages, any of the
Reimbursement Loan Documents or any of the other Transaction Document to which
any of the Borrowers and Fannie Mae are parties, the terms and conditions of
this Agreement shall control.
21 JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY.
(a) JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents to the
contrary (but subject, however, to the provisions of subsection 8.21(b)), all
Obligations of any or all the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be joint and several Obligations of each Borrower.
(b) MAXIMUM LIABILITY OF EACH BORROWER; CONTRIBUTION AMONG
BORROWERS.
(i) Maximum Liability of each Borrower. Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction
Documents to the contrary, if the Obligations of any Borrower
hereunder exceed the limitations imposed under any Fraudulent Transfer
Law (as hereinafter defined), then such Obligations of such Borrower
shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest
amount that would not render its Obligations subject to avoidance as a
fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the
United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state
law (collectively, the "FRAUDULENT TRANSFER LAWS"), in each case after
giving effect to all other liabilities of such Borrower, contingent or
otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws
(specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Borrower in
respect of intercompany indebtedness to any other Borrower or any
other Affiliate of the Borrowers to the extent that such indebtedness
would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such
Borrower in respect of the Obligations) and after giving effect (as
assets) to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of
the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation,
reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of such Borrower
pursuant to applicable law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement.

(ii) Contribution Among Borrowers. The Borrowers together
desire to allocate among themselves in a fair and equitable manner,
their Obligations arising under this Agreement. Accordingly, in the
event any payment or distribution is made on any date by any Borrower
under this Agreement that exceeds its Fair Share (as defined below) as
of such date, that Borrower shall be entitled to a contribution from
each of the other the Borrowers in the amount of such other Borrower's
Fair Share Shortfall (as defined below) as of such date, with the
result that all such contributions will cause each Borrower's
Aggregate Payments (as defined below) to equal its Fair Share as of
such date provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no
Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution payments which
exceed the amount of payments such Borrower has made on account of the
Obligations as of any date of determination. "FAIR SHARE" means, with
respect to a Borrower as of any date of determination, an amount equal
to (a) the ratio of (X) the Adjusted Maximum Amount (as defined below)
with respect to such Borrower to (Y) the aggregate of the Adjusted
Maximum Amounts with respect to all the Borrowers multiplied by (b)
the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all
the Borrowers hereunder in respect of the Obligations. "FAIR SHARE
SHORTFALL" means, with respect to a Borrower as of any date of
determination, the excess, if any, of the Fair Share of such Borrower
over the Aggregate Payments of such Borrower. "ADJUSTED MAXIMUM
AMOUNT" means, with respect to a Borrower as of any date of
determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the Obligations of such
Borrower under this Agreement determined as of such date in accordance
with subsection 8.21(b)(i); provided that, solely for purposes of
calculating the "Adjusted Maximum Amount" with respect to any Borrower
for purposes of this subsection 8.21(b)(ii), any assets or liabilities
of such Borrower arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation,
reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of
contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or
liabilities of such Borrower. "AGGREGATE PAYMENTS" means, with
respect to a Borrower as of any date of determination, an amount equal
to (a) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on
or before such date by such Borrower in respect of this Agreement
(including in respect of this subsection 8.21(b)(ii)) minus (b) the
aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by
such Borrower from the other Borrowers as contributions under this
subsection 8.21(b)(ii). The amounts payable as contributions under
this subsection 8.21(b)(ii) shall be determined as of the date on
which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable
Borrower. The allocation among the Borrowers of their obligations as
set forth in this subsection 8.21(b)(ii) shall not be construed in any
way to limit the liability of any Borrower hereunder.
(c) BORROWERS' RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION, ETC.. Until the Obligations
shall have been paid and performed in full, each Borrower shall withhold
exercise of any right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnity
(whether contractual (including any such right under subsection 8.21(b)(ii)),
statutory, equitable, under common law or otherwise) and any other rights to
enforce any claims or remedies which it now has or may hereafter have against
any other Borrower or any of the Collateral or against any other guarantor or
security for the
134
136
Obligations. Each Borrower further agrees that, to the extent its agreement to
withhold exercise of such rights of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement
and indemnity and such other rights as set forth above is found by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any such rights
such Borrower may have against any other Borrower, any Collateral or any other
guarantor or security for the Obligations shall be junior and subordinate to
any rights Fannie Mae may have against such Borrower, such Collateral, such
guarantor or such security.
(d) SUBORDINATION OF OBLIGATIONS BETWEEN BORROWERS. Any
indebtedness of a Borrower (a "DEBTOR AFFILIATE") now or hereafter held by any
other Borrower (a "CREDITOR AFFILIATE") is hereby subordinated to the
Obligations of such Debtor Affiliate to Fannie Mae. If Fannie Mae so requests
after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such indebtedness
shall be collected, enforced and received by such Creditor Affiliate as trustee
for Fannie Mae and be paid over to Fannie Mae on account of the Obligations.
(e) FANNIE MAE' RIGHTS. Each Borrower hereby agrees that Fannie
Mae may, without demand and at any time and from time to time and without the
consent of, or notice to, such Borrower, without incurring responsibility to
such Borrower, and without impairing or releasing the obligations of such
Borrower hereunder, upon or without any terms or conditions and in whole or in
part:
(i) change the manner, place or terms of payment of,
and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase,
accelerate or alter, any of the Obligations of any other Borrower, any
security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in
respect thereof, and the Obligations of such Borrower shall apply to
the Obligations of such other Borrower as so changed, extended,
renewed or altered;
(ii) subject to the limitations imposed by subsection
8.21(b)(i), if any, take and hold security for the payment of the
Obligations of any other Borrower and sell, exchange, release,
surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in
any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged
to secure, or howsoever securing, such Obligations or any liabilities
(including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in
respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset thereagainst;
(iii) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights
against any other Borrower or any Collateral;
(iv) release or substitute any one or more endorsers,
guarantors, or other obligors in respect of the Obligations of any
other Borrower;
(v) settle or compromise any of the Obligations of any
other Borrower, any security therefor or any liability (including any
of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof
or hereof, or subordinate the payment of all or any part
135
137
thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of such
other Borrower to its creditors other than Fannie Mae;
(vi) subject to the limitations imposed by subsection
8.21(b)(i), if any, apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever
realized to any liability or liabilities of any other Borrower to
Fannie Mae regardless of what liability or liabilities of such
Borrower to Fannie Mae remain unpaid; and/or
(vii) consent to or waive any breach by any other Borrower
of, or any act, omission or default by any other Borrower under, this
Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents.
(f) OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE. No invalidity, irregularity or
unenforceability of all or any part of the Obligations of any Borrower shall
affect, impair or be a defense to the Obligations of any other Borrower in
respect thereof, and the Obligations of each Borrower under subsection 8.21(a)
in respect of the Obligations of each other Borrower shall be primary, absolute
and unconditional notwithstanding the occurrence of any event or the existence
of any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of a surety or guarantor for the Obligations of such other Borrower
except payment and performance in full thereof.
(g) RELIANCE. Fannie Mae shall not be required to inquire into
the capacity or powers of any Borrower, or any of the officers, directors,
partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any Borrower, as a
condition to the liability of any other Borrower hereunder, and any Obligations
made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall
become Obligations of such other Borrower hereunder.
