amount shall be secured by the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents to the
extent permitted by applicable law. The foregoing late payment charge shall not
apply to the payment of all outstanding principal, interest and other sums due
on the Maturity Date.
2.2.8 USURY SAVINGS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage, or any of the other Loan
Documents, neither the Applicable Interest Rate nor the Default Rate shall at
any time exceed the Maximum Rate. The term "Maximum Rate," as used herein, shall
mean, on any day, the highest nonusurious rate of interest (if any) permitted by
applicable law on such day. With respect to the Inland Park Place Note, for
purposes of Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code, as it may from time to time
be amended, the Maximum Rate shall be the "weekly ceiling" as defined in Section
303.002 of said Code and as computed in accordance with Section 303.003 of said
Code, from time to time in effect; provided, however, that to the extent
permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves the right to change, from time to
time by further notice and disclosure to Borrower, the ceiling on which the
Maximum Rate is based under Chapter 303 of said Code; and, provided further,
that the "highest nonusurious rate of interest permitted by applicable law" for
purposes of this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of the other Loan
Documents shall not be limited to the applicable rate ceiling under Chapter 303
of said Code if federal laws or other state laws now or hereafter in effect and
applicable to this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of the other Loan
Documents (and the interest contracted for, charged and collected hereunder)
shall permit a higher rate of interest. In no event shall the Loan be considered
a revolving credit account as defined in Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code,
as may be hereafter amended or recodified.
22
It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with all applicable
usury laws of the United States of America, including, but not limited to, the
laws of the State of Texas, if applicable. The parties hereto do not intend to
contract for, charge or receive any interest or other charge which is usurious,
and by execution of this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of the other
Loan Documents, Borrower agrees that Lender has no such intent. This Agreement,
the Note, the Mortgage, the other Loan Documents and all other agreements
between Borrower and Lender or any other holder hereof, which are now existing
or hereafter arising, whether written or oral, are hereby expressly limited so
that in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity
hereof, or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Lender or
any other holder hereof for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be
due hereunder or otherwise, or for the payment or performance of any covenant or
obligation contained herein or in any other document evidencing, securing or
pertaining to the Debt, exceed the Maximum Rate. If from any circumstance
whatsoever fulfillment of any provisions hereof or other document, at the time
performance of such provisions shall be due, shall involve transcending the
valid limits prescribed by law, then ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled
shall be reduced to the Maximum Rate, and if from any such circumstance Lender
or any other holder shall ever receive as interest or otherwise an amount which
will exceed the Maximum Rate, such amount which would be excessive interest
shall be applied (without Prepayment Consideration or other prepayment penalty
or premium) to the reduction of the principal amount owing hereunder or on
account of any other principal indebtedness of Borrower to the holder and not to
the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid
balance of principal hereof and such other indebtedness, such excess shall be
refunded to Borrower. All sums paid and agreed to be paid to Lender or any other
holder for use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness of Borrower shall,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated,
and spread throughout the period until payment in full on the Note (or any
renewals, extensions and rearrangement thereof) so that the actual rate of
interest on account of the Debt is uniform throughout the term of the Note (and
all renewals, extensions and rearrangements hereof) and does not exceed the
Maximum Rate. The terms and provisions of this Article 2.2.8 shall control and
supersede any other provision of this Note or the other Loan Documents.
Section 2.3 PREPAYMENTS.
2.3.1 VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS.
(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall not have
the right to prepay the Loan in whole or in part prior to the Permitted
Prepayment Date. After the Permitted Prepayment Date, Borrower may, provided it
has given Lender prior written notice in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, prepay the unpaid principal balance of the Loan in whole, but
(subject to Section 2.3.1(b) below) not in part, by paying, together with the
amount to be prepaid, (i) interest accrued and unpaid on the outstanding
principal balance of the Loan to and including the date of prepayment, (ii)
unless prepayment is tendered on a Payment Date, an amount equal to the interest
that would have accrued on the amount being prepaid after the date of prepayment
through and including the next Payment Date had the prepayment not been made
(which amount shall constitute additional consideration for the prepayment),
(iii) all other sums then due under
23
this Agreement, the Notes, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents, and (iv)
if the prepayment occurs prior to the date which is one month prior to the
Maturity Date, a prepayment consideration (the "PREPAYMENT CONSIDERATION") equal
to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal balance of
the Loan being prepaid or (B) the excess, if any, of (1) the sum of the present
values of all then-scheduled payments of principal and interest under this
Agreement including, but not limited to, principal and interest on the Maturity
Date (with each such payment discounted to its present value at the date of
prepayment at the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the
Prepayment Rate), over (2) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the
Notes. Lender shall notify Borrower of the amount and the basis of determination
of the required prepayment consideration:
(b) After the Permitted Prepayment Date, Borrower may, provided
it has satisfied the Partial Prepayment Conditions, prepay the unpaid principal
balance of any one or more individual Notes (such Note or Notes being the
"RELEASE NOTE") in whole, but not in part, and obtain a release of the Related
Documents, by paying, (i) an amount equal to 115% of the outstanding principal
balance of the Release Note (such amount being referred to herein as the
"RELEASE PRINCIPAL PAYMENT"), (ii) interest accrued and unpaid on the Release
Principal Payment at the applicable Interest Rate to and including the date of
prepayment, (iii) unless prepayment is tendered on a Payment Date, an amount
equal to the interest that would have accrued on the Release Principal Payment
after the date of prepayment through and including the next Payment Date had the
prepayment not been made (which amount shall constitute additional consideration
for the prepayment), (iv) all other sums then due under this Agreement, the
Release Note, the Release Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and (v) the
Prepayment Consideration (calculated on the amount of the Release Principal
Payment). From the Release Principal Payment, an amount equal to 15% of the
outstanding principal balance of the Release Note shall be applied to the
outstanding principal balance of the Remaining Note; the Monthly Debt Service
Payment Amount under the Remaining Note shall be recalculated based on the
Initial Rate and the unpaid principal balance effective as of the day following
the next occurring Payment Date. Lender promptly shall notify Borrower in
writing of the new Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount with respect to the
Remaining Note.
(c) On October 1, 2008, and on each day thereafter through the
Maturity Date, Borrower may, at its option, prepay the Debt in whole or in part
(including a Hyper-Am Prepayment) without payment of any Prepayment
Consideration or other penalty or premium; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if such prepayment
(other than a Hyper-Am Prepayment) is not paid on a regularly scheduled Payment
Date, such prepayment shall include interest that would have accrued on such
prepayment through and including the day immediately preceding the next Payment
Date. Except in connecton with a Hyper-Am Prepayment, Borrower's right to prepay
any portion of the principal balance of the Loan shall be subject to (i)
Borrower's submission of a notice to Lender setting forth the amount to be
prepaid and the projected date of prepayment, which date shall be no less than
thirty (30) days from the date of such notice, and (ii) Borrower's actual
payment to Lender of the amount to be prepaid as set forth in such notice on the
projected date set forth in such notice or any day following such projected date
occurring in the same calendar month as such projected date.
2.3.2 MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.
24
(a) On the next occurring Payment Date following the date on
which Borrower actually receives any Net Proceeds, if Lender is not obligated to
make such Net Proceeds available to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement for the
restoration of the applicable Property, Borrower shall, at Lender's option,
prepay the outstanding principal balance of the applicable Note in an amount
equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds. No Prepayment
Consideration or other penalty or premium shall be due in connection with any
prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.3.2(a). Any partial prepayment under
this Section shall be applied to the last payments of principal due under the
applicable Note.
(b) On the date on which Borrower tenders a Casualty/Condemnation
Prepayment pursuant to Section 6.4(e) below, such tender shall include (a) all
accrued and unpaid interest and the principal indebtedness being prepaid,
including interest on the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Note
through the last day of the month within which such tender occurs, and (b) any
other sums due hereunder relating to the applicable Note. Except as set forth in
this Section 2.3.2(b), other than following an Event of Default, no Prepayment
Consideration or other penalty or premium shall be due in connection with any
Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment.
2.3.3 PREPAYMENTS AFTER DEFAULT. Following an Event of Default, if
Borrower or anyone on Borrower's behalf makes a tender of payment of all or any
portion of the Debt at any time prior to a foreclosure sale (including a sale
under the power of sale under a Mortgage), or during any redemption period after
foreclosure, (i) the tender of payment shall constitute an evasion of Borrower's
obligation to pay any Prepayment Consideration due under this Agreement and such
payment shall, therefore, to the maximum extent permitted by law, include a
premium equal to the Prepayment Consideration that would have been payable on
the date of such tender had the Loan not been so accelerated, or (ii) if at the
time of such tender a prepayment of the principal amount of the Loan would have
been prohibited under this Agreement had the principal amount of the Loan not
been so accelerated, the tender of payment shall constitute an evasion of such
prepayment prohibition and shall, therefore, to the maximum extent permitted by
law, include an amount equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the then principal
amount of the Loan (or the relevant portion thereof being prepaid) and (ii) an
amount equal to the excess of (A) the sum of the present values of a series of
payments payable at the times and in the amounts equal to the payments of
principal and interest (including, but not limited to the principal and interest
payable on the Maturity Date) which would have been scheduled to be payable
after the date of such tender under this Agreement had the Loan (or the relevant
portion thereof) not been accelerated, with each such payment discounted to its
present value at the date of such tender at the rate which when compounded
monthly is equivalent to the Prepayment Rate, over (B) the then principal amount
of the Loan.
Section 2.4 INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
Section 2.5 RELEASE OF PROPERTY. Except as set forth in this
Section 2.5, no repayment or prepayment of all or any portion of the Loan shall
cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of
any Lien of the Mortgage on any Property. If Borrower has elected to prepay the
entire amount of the Loan pursuant to Section 2.3.1(a) or 2.3.1(c), and the
requirements of this Section 2.5 have been satisfied, the Property shall be
released from the Lien of the Mortgages.
25
2.5.1 RELEASE ON PAYMENT IN FULL. Lender shall, upon the written
request and at the expense of Borrower, upon payment in full of all principal
and interest on the Loan and all other amounts due and payable under the Loan
Documents in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 2.3.1(a) or
2.3.1(c) of this
Loan Agreement, release the Lien of the Mortgages on the
Properties not theretofore released.
2.5.2 RELEASE UPON PREPAYMENT OF RELEASE NOTE. Lender shall, upon
the written request and at the expense of Borrower, upon prepayment in full of a
Release Note in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 2.3.1(b) of
this
Loan Agreement, release the Lien of the Related Mortgage and the other
Related Documents.
Section 2.6 MANNER OF MAKING PAYMENTS.

under the Notes shall be made in funds settled through the New York Clearing
House Interbank Payments System or other funds immediately available to Lender
by 1:00 pm., New York City time, on the date such payment is due, to Lender by
deposit to such account as Lender may designate by written notice to Borrower.
Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a
day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day.
2.6.2 NO DEDUCTIONS, ETC. All payments made by Borrower hereunder
or under the Notes or the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of,
and without any deduction for, any setoff, defense or counterclaims.
2.6.3 HYPER-AMORTIZATION/CASH MANAGEMENT. Upon a Cash Management
Trigger, Borrower shall enter into a cash management agreement with a bank
acceptable to Lender (the "LOCKBOX BANK") in form and substance acceptable to
Lender, which shall provide, among other things, that upon a Hyper-Am Trigger,
all Tenants shall deposit Rent and other receivables related to the Property
directly into an account (the "LOCKBOX ACCOUNT"), which account shall be owned
by and under the sole dominion and control of Lender. Upon a Cash Management
Trigger, Borrower shall deliver to Lender executed notices, which shall be
irrevocable by Borrower and otherwise in form acceptable to Lender in its
reasonable discretion, directing each Tenant to pay Rent and other sums due to
Borrower pursuant to its Lease directly to the Lockbox Bank. Upon a Hyper-Am

Tenant, and on each Payment Date thereafter, the Lender shall apply funds in the
Lockbox Account to pay (i) debt service, (ii) required reserves, (iii) fees of
the Lockbox Bank, (iv) budgeted Operating Expenses and Capital Expenditures for
the Property, and (v) extraordinary operating expenses and capital expenses not
budgeted but approved by Lender, which shall be described in the cash management
agreement. Funds remaining in the Lockbox Account after payment of the foregoing
items (i) thru (v) shall be deemed "EXCESS CASH FLOW." Borrower shall be
responsible for the costs associated with the Lockbox Account. An insufficiency
of Funds in the Lockbox Account shall not obviate, reduce or otherwise effect
Borrower's obligations hereunder, under the Note or other Loan Documents.
Section 2.7 RELEASE OF OUT PARCELS. Lender acknowledges that Inland
Park Place Limited Partnership has requested the right to obtain a future
release of two (2) currently
26
unimproved portions of its Property to be delineated after the date hereof
(together with any appurtenant easements approved by Lender, each an "OUT
PARCEL," collectively, the "OUT PARCELS"). Lender hereby agrees that,
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.5 hereof, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Section 2.7, such Borrower may obtain a release of
the Lien of the applicable Mortgage (and the related Loan Documents) encumbering
its Property from the Out Parcels, provided that (a) no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, (b) such Borrower provides Lender with a written
request for such a release, and (c) such Borrower satisfies within ninety (90)
days of the date Lender receives such written request each of the conditions
listed on Schedule V hereof (the "OUT PARCELS RELEASE CONDITIONS")."

warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date that:

existing and in good standing with requisite power and authority to own its
Property and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. Borrower is
duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where
it is required to be so qualified in connection with its properties, businesses
and operations. Borrower possesses all rights, licenses, permits and
authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own its
properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged, and the
sole business of Borrower is the ownership, management and operation of its
Property.
4.1.2 PROCEEDINGS. Borrower has taken all necessary action to
authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. This Agreement and such other Loan Documents have been
duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and constitute legal,
valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in
accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and
subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of
whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).
4.1.3 NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower will not conflict with or
result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default
under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or
encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property
or assets of Borrower pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of
trust, loan agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement or instrument to
which Borrower is a party or by which any of Borrower's property or assets is
subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any
statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or
body having jurisdiction over Borrower or any of Borrower's properties or
assets, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or

suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority

the Property, might materially adversely affect the condition (financial or
otherwise) or business of Borrower or the condition or ownership of its
Property.

Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents
and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. The applicable Mortgage, when
properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform
Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection
therewith, will create (a) a valid, perfected lien on Borrower's Property,
subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and the Liens created by the Loan
Documents and (b) perfected security interests in and to, and perfected
collateral assignment of, all personalty (including the applicable Leases), all

performed or materials provided which are or may become a lien prior to, or of
equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents.
4.1.7 SOLVENCY; NO BANKRUPTCY. Borrower (a) has not entered into
the transaction or executed the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents
with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor and (b) received
reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under such Loan
Documents. Giving effect to the Loan, the fair saleable value of Borrower's
assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, exceed
Borrower's total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated,
unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of
Borrower's assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, be
greater than Borrower's probable
32
liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its
debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower's assets do not and,
immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably
small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be
conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur
debt and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments)
beyond its ability to pay such debt and liabilities as they mature (taking into
account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Borrower and the
amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower). Except as
expressly disclosed to Lender in writing, no petition in bankruptcy has been
filed against Borrower, or to the best of Borrower's knowledge, any constituent
Person in the last seven (7) years, and neither Borrower, nor to the best of
Borrower's knowledge, any constituent Person in the last seven (7) years has
ever made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or taken advantage of any
insolvency act for the benefit of debtors. Neither Borrower nor any of its
constituent Persons are contemplating either the filing of a petition by it
under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of
all or a major portion of Borrower's assets or property, and Borrower has no
knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it
or such constituent Persons.
4.1.8 FULL AND ACCURATE DISCLOSURE. To Borrower's knowledge, no
statement of fact made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan
Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any
material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not
misleading. There is no material fact presently known to Borrower which has not
been disclosed to Lender which adversely affects, nor as far as Borrower can
foresee, might adversely affect, its Property or the business, operations or
condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower.
4.1.9 NO PLAN ASSETS. Borrower is not an "employee benefit plan,"
as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to Title I of ERISA, and none of
the assets of Borrower constitutes or will constitute "plan assets" of one or
more such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101. In addition,
(a) Borrower is not a "governmental plan" within the meaning of Section 3(32) of
ERISA and (b) transactions by or with Borrower are not subject to state statutes
regulating investment of, and fiduciary obligations with respect to,
governmental plans similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code currently in effect, which prohibit or otherwise restrict the

Property and the use thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable
Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, building and zoning
ordinances and codes. Borrower is not in default or violation of any order,
writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority. There has not
been committed by Borrower or, to Borrower's knowledge, any other Person in
occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of its Property any act or
omission affording the federal government or any other Governmental Authority
the right of forfeiture as against its Property or any part thereof or any
monies paid in performance of Borrower's obligations under any of the Loan
Documents.
4.1.11 FINANCIAL INFORMATION. All financial data, including, without
limitation, the statements of cash flow and income and operating expense, that

Affiliates, then the foregoing representations with respect to such financial
data shall be to the best of Borrower's knowledge, after due inquiry. Borrower
does not have any contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward
or long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any
unfavorable commitments that are known to Borrower and reasonably likely to have
a materially adverse effect on its Property or the operation thereof, except as
referred to or reflected in said financial statements. Since the date of such

Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any "margin stock"

Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for any
purposes prohibited by Legal Requirements or by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

drain facilities adequate to service such Property for its respective intended
uses. All public utilities necessary or convenient to the full use and enjoyment
of such Property are located either in the public right-of-way abutting the
Property (which are connected so as to serve the Property without passing over
other property) or in recorded easements serving such Property and such
easements are set forth in and insured by the applicable Title Insurance Policy.
All roads necessary for the use of the Property for their current respective
purposes have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all
Governmental Authorities.

knowledge, proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or
otherwise affecting its
34
Property, nor are there any contemplated improvements to its Property that may
result in such special or other assessments.
4.1.18 ENFORCEABILITY. The Loan Documents are not subject to any
right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by Borrower, including the
defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan
Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents
unenforceable, and Borrower has not asserted any right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim or defense with respect thereto.
4.1.19 NO PRIOR ASSIGNMENT. There is no prior assignment of the
Leases or any portion of the Rents by Borrower or any of its predecessors in
interest, given as collateral security which are presently outstanding.
4.1.20 INSURANCE. Borrower has obtained and has delivered to Lender
certified copies of all insurance policies reflecting the insurance coverages,
amounts and other requirements set forth in this Agreement. To the best of
Borrower's knowledge, no claims have been made under any such policy, and no
Person, including Borrower, has done, by act or omission, anything which would
impair the coverage of any such policy.
4.1.21 USE OF PROPERTY. The Property is used exclusively for retail
purposes and other appurtenant and related uses.
4.1.22 CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY; LICENSES. All certifications,
permits, licenses and approvals, including without limitation, certificates of
completion and occupancy permits required to be obtained by Borrower for the
legal use, occupancy and operation of its Property as a retail shopping center

Borrower's knowledge, after due inquiry, all certifications, permits, licenses

roofs, plumbing systems, HVAC systems, fire protection systems, electrical
systems, equipment, elevators, exterior sidings and doors, landscaping,
irrigation systems and all structural components, are in good condition, order
and repair in all material respects; there exists no structural or other
material defects or damages in its Property, whether latent or
35
otherwise, and Borrower has not received notice from any insurance company or
bonding company of any defects or inadequacies in its Property, or any part
thereof, which would adversely affect the insurability of the same or cause the
imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or of any termination or
threatened termination of any policy of insurance or bond.
4.1.25 BOUNDARIES. To the best of Borrower's knowledge, after due
inquiry, all of the improvements which were included in determining the
appraised value of its Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building
restriction lines of its Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties
encroach upon its Property, and no easements or other encumbrances upon its
Property encroach upon any of the improvements, so as to affect the value or
marketability of its Property except those which are insured against by title
insurance.
4.1.26 LEASES. The Property is not subject to any Leases other than
the Leases described on the Rent Roll attached as SCHEDULE IV hereto and made a
part hereof (and subleases expressly permitted under the Anchor Lease). No
Person has any possessory interest in the Property or right to occupy the same
except under and pursuant to the provisions of the Leases. The current Leases
are in full force and effect and to Borrower's knowledge after inquiry, there
are no defaults thereunder by either party and there are no conditions that,
with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute
defaults thereunder. No Rent (including security deposits) has been paid more

by the applicable tenant, and any payments, free rent, partial rent, rebate of

thereby, no such tenant holds its leased premises under assignment or sublease,
nor does anyone except such tenant and its employees occupy such leased
premises. No tenant under any Lease has a right or option pursuant to such Lease
or otherwise to purchase all or any part of the leased premises or the building
of which the leased premises are a part. Except as set fort in SCHEDULE IV, no
tenant under any Lease has any right or option for additional space in the

based on the Environmental Report delivered to Lender in connection herewith, no
hazardous wastes or toxic substances, as defined by applicable federal, state or
local statutes, rules and regulations, have been disposed, stored or treated by
any tenant under any Lease on or about the leased premises nor does Borrower
have any knowledge of any tenant's intention to use its leased premises for any

represents that such information is, to the best of its knowledge after due
inquiry, accurate, complete and correct in all material respects. There has been
no material adverse change in any condition, fact, circumstance or event that

might materially and adversely affect its Property or the business operations or

ARTICLE V
BORROWER COVENANTS
Section 5.1 AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. From the date hereof and until
payment and performance in full of all obligations of Borrower under the Loan
Documents or the earlier release of the Lien of the Mortgage encumbering the
Property (and all related obligations) in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Borrower hereby covenants and
agrees with Lender that:
5.1.1 EXISTENCE; COMPLIANCE WITH LEGAL REQUIREMENTS; INSURANCE.
Borrower shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew
and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights, licenses, permits and
franchises and comply with all Legal Requirements applicable to it and its
Property. Borrower shall not commit, nor shall Borrower permit any other Person
in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Property to commit,
any act or omission affording the federal government or any state or local
government the right of forfeiture as against the Property or any part thereof
or any monies paid in performance of Borrower's obligations under any of the
Loan Documents. Borrower hereby
38
covenants and agrees not to commit, permit or suffer to exist any act or
omission affording such right of forfeiture. Borrower shall at all times
maintain, preserve and protect all its franchises and trade names and preserve
all the remainder of its Property used or useful in the conduct of its business
and shall keep its Property in good working order and repair, and from time to
time make, or cause to be made, all reasonably necessary repairs, renewals,
replacements, betterments and improvements thereto, all as more fully provided
in the applicable Mortgage. Borrower shall keep, or (in the case of the Inland
Western New Britain Property and to the extent such obligation is an obligation
of Anchor Tenant under its Lease) shall cause Anchor Tenant to keep, the
Property insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers, to
such extent and against such risks, and maintain liability and such other
insurance, as is more fully provided in this Agreement. Borrower shall operate,
or cause the tenant to operate, any Property that is the subject of an O&M
Agreement (if any) in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof in all
material respects. After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own
expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding promptly initiated and
conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity of any Legal
Requirement, the applicability of any Legal Requirement to Borrower or the
Property or any alleged violation of any Legal Requirement, provided that (i) no
Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured; (ii) intentionally omitted;
(iii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance
with the provisions of any instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not
constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in
accordance with all applicable statutes, laws and ordinances; (iv) the Property
or any part thereof or interest therein will not be in danger of being sold,
forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (v) Borrower shall promptly upon final
determination thereof comply with any such Legal Requirement determined to be
valid or applicable or cure any violation of any Legal Requirement; (vi) such
proceeding shall suspend the enforcement of the contested Legal Requirement
against Borrower or the Property; and (vii) Borrower shall furnish such security
as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be requested by Lender, to
insure compliance with such Legal Requirement, together with all interest and
penalties payable in connection therewith. Lender may apply any such security,
as necessary to cause compliance with such Legal Requirement at any time when,
in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the validity, applicability or violation
of such Legal Requirement is finally established or the Property (or any part
thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited,
terminated, cancelled or lost.
5.1.2 TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES.
(a) Borrower shall pay, or (in the case of the Inland Western New
Britain Property and to the extent such obligation is an obligation of Anchor
Tenant under its Lease) shall cause Anchor Tenant to pay, all Taxes and Other
Charges now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against its Property or
any part thereof as the same become due and payable; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
Borrower's obligation to directly pay to the appropriate taxing authority Taxes
shall be suspended for so long as Borrower complies with the terms and
provisions of Section 7.2 hereof. Borrower will deliver to Lender receipts for
payment or other evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Taxes and Other
Charges have been so paid or are not then delinquent no later than ten (10) days
prior to the date on which the Taxes and/or Other Charges would otherwise be
delinquent if not paid (PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Borrower is not required to
furnish such receipts for payment of Taxes in the event that such Taxes have
been paid by Lender pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof). If Borrower pays or causes
to be paid all Taxes and
39
Other Charges and provides a copy of the receipt evidencing the payment thereof
to Lender, then Lender shall reimburse Borrower, provided that there are then
sufficient proceeds in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund and provided that the
Taxes are being paid pursuant to Section 7.2. Upon written request of Borrower,
if Lender has paid such Taxes pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof, Lender shall
provide Borrower with evidence that such Taxes have been paid. Borrower shall
not suffer and shall promptly cause to be paid and discharged any Lien or charge
whatsoever which may be or become a Lien or charge against its Property, and
shall promptly pay for all utility services provided to the Property. After
prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by
appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and
with due diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of
any Taxes or Other Charges, provided that (i) intentionally omitted; (ii) such
proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the
provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not
constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in
accordance with all applicable statutes, laws and ordinances; (iii) the Property
nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold,
forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (iv) Borrower shall promptly upon
final determination thereof pay the amount of any such Taxes or Other Charges,
together with all costs, interest and penalties which may be payable in
connection therewith; (v) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such
contested Taxes or Other Charges from the Property; and (vi) Borrower shall
furnish such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be
reasonably requested by Lender, to insure the payment of any such Taxes or Other
Charges, together with all interest and penalties thereon. Lender may pay over
any such cash deposit or part thereof held by Lender to the claimant entitled
thereto at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the entitlement
of such claimant is established.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided (in the case of the
Inland Western New Britain Property and to the extent such obligation is an
obligation of Anchor Tenant under its Lease) that Anchor Tenant is required
under the Anchor Tenant Lease to pay all property taxes directly to the taxing
authority, and Anchor Tenant is in compliance with such obligations, subsection
(a) above shall not apply.
5.1.3 LITIGATION. Borrower shall give prompt written notice to
Lender of any litigation or governmental proceedings pending or threatened
against Borrower which might materially adversely affect Borrower's condition
(financial or otherwise) or business or its Property.

representatives and employees of Lender to inspect its Property or any part
thereof at reasonable hours upon reasonable advance notice, subject to the
rights of Tenants.

any material adverse change in Borrower's condition, financial or otherwise, or
of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default of which Borrower has
knowledge.

fully with Lender with respect to any proceedings before any court, board or
other Governmental Authority which may in any way affect the rights of Lender
hereunder or any rights obtained by Lender
40
under any of the other Loan Documents and, in connection therewith, permit
Lender, at its election, to participate in any such proceedings.
5.1.7 PERFORM LOAN DOCUMENTS. Borrower shall observe, perform and
satisfy all the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of, and shall pay
when due all costs, fees and expenses to the extent required under the Loan
Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower.
5.1.8 INSURANCE BENEFITS. Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in
obtaining for Lender the benefits of any Insurance Proceeds lawfully or
equitably payable in connection with its Property, and Lender shall be
reimbursed for any expenses incurred in connection therewith (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, and the payment by Borrower of the
expense of an appraisal on behalf of Lender in case of a fire or other casualty
affecting the Property or any part thereof) out of such Insurance Proceeds.
5.1.9 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Borrower shall, at Borrower's sole cost
and expense:
(a) furnish to Lender all instruments, documents, boundary
surveys, footing or foundation surveys, certificates, plans and specifications,
appraisals, title and other insurance reports and agreements, and each and every
other document, certificate, agreement and instrument required to be furnished
by Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents or reasonably requested
by Lender in connection therewith;
(b) execute and deliver to Lender such documents, instruments,
certificates, assignments and other writings, and do such other acts necessary
or desirable, to evidence, preserve and/or protect the collateral at any time
securing or intended to secure the obligations of Borrower under the Loan
Documents, as Lender may reasonably require, including, but not limited to,
executing new Notes reflecting a re-allocation of the entire Loan amount; and
(c) do and execute all and such further lawful and reasonable

provide for rental rates comparable to existing local market rates (unless such
rental rates are otherwise set forth in the Leases executed prior to the date
hereof). All proposed Leases shall be on commercially reasonable terms and shall
not contain any terms which would materially affect Lender's rights under the

they are subordinate to the Mortgage encumbering the Property and that the
tenant thereunder agrees to attorn to Lender or any purchaser at a sale by
foreclosure or power of sale. Borrower (i) shall observe and perform the
obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases in a commercially
reasonable manner; (ii) shall enforce the terms, covenants and conditions

value of the Property involved except that no termination by Borrower or
acceptance of surrender by a tenant of any Lease shall be permitted unless by
reason of a tenant default and then only in a commercially reasonable manner to
preserve and protect the Property PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such termination or

45
be withheld in the sole discretion of Lender; (iii) shall not collect any of the

which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of Lender; and (vi) shall
execute and deliver at the request of Lender all such further assurances,
confirmations and assignment in connection with the Leases as Lender shall from
time to time reasonably require. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may,
without the prior written consent of Lender, terminate any Lease which demises
less than the Relevant Leasing Threshold under any of the following
circumstances: (i) the tenant under said Lease is in default beyond any
applicable grace and cure period, and Borrower has the right to terminate such
Lease; (ii) such termination is permitted by the terms of the Lease in question
and Borrower has secured an obligation from a third party to lease the space
under the Lease to be terminated at a rental equal to or higher than the rental
due under the Lease to be terminated; and (iii) if the tenant under the Lease to
be terminated, has executed a right under said Lease to terminate its lease upon
payment of a termination fee to Borrower, and has in fact terminated its lease
and paid said fee, Borrower may accept said termination.
5.1.21 ALTERATIONS. Subject to the rights of tenants to make
alterations pursuant to the terms of their respective Leases, Borrower shall
obtain Lender's prior written consent to any alterations to any Improvements,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed except with respect
to alterations that may have a material adverse effect on Borrower's financial
condition, the value of its Property or the Net Operating Income.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender's consent shall not be required in
connection with any alterations that will not have a material adverse effect on
Borrower's financial condition, the value of its Property or the Net Operating
Income, provided that such alterations are made in connection with (a) tenant
improvement work performed pursuant to the terms of any Lease executed on or
before the date hereof, (b) tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the
terms and provisions of a Lease and not adversely affecting any structural
component of any Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any
Improvements or the exterior of any building constituting a part of any
Improvements, (c) alterations performed in connection with the restoration of
the Property after the occurrence of a casualty in accordance with the terms and
provisions of this Agreement or (d) any structural alteration which costs less
than $50,000.00 in the aggregate for all components thereof which constitute
such alteration or any non-structural alteration which costs less than
$100,000.00 in the aggregate for all components thereof which constitute such
alteration. If the total unpaid amounts due and payable with respect to
alterations to the Improvements at the Property (other than such amounts to be
paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases) shall at any time equal or
exceed $350,000.00 (the "THRESHOLD AMOUNT"), Borrower, upon Lender's request,
shall promptly deliver to Lender as security for the payment of such amounts and
as additional security for Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents any
of the following: (A) cash, (B) U.S. Obligations, (C) other securities having a
rating acceptable to Lender and that the applicable Rating Agencies have
confirmed in writing will not, in and of itself, result in a downgrade,
withdrawal or qualification of the initial, or, if higher, then current ratings
assigned in connection with any Securitization, or (D) a completion bond or
letter of credit issued by a financial institution having a rating by Standard &
Poor's Ratings Group of not less than A-1+ if the term of such bond or letter of
credit is no longer than three (3) months or, if such term is in excess of three
(3) months, issued by a financial institution having a rating that is acceptable
to
46
Lender and that the applicable Rating Agencies have confirmed in writing will
not, in and of itself, result in a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the
initial, or, if higher, then current ratings assigned in connection with any
Securitization. Such security shall be in an amount equal to the excess of the
total unpaid amounts with respect to alterations to the Improvements on the
Property (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the
Leases) over the Threshold Amount and, if cash, may be applied from time to
time, at the option of Borrower, to pay for such alterations. At the option of
Lender, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Lender may terminate any of the alterations and use the deposit to
restore the Property to the extent necessary to prevent any material adverse
effect on the value of the Property.

receive any consideration in connection with any of said described transfers or
conveyances, Borrower shall have the right to use any such proceeds in
connection with any alterations performed in
51
connection therewith, or required thereby. In connection with any transfer,
conveyance or encumbrance permitted above, the Lender shall execute and deliver
any instrument reasonably necessary or appropriate to evidence its consent to
said action or to subordinate the Lien of the applicable Mortgage to such
easements, restrictions, covenants, reservations and rights of way or other
similar grants upon receipt by the Lender of: (A) a copy of the instrument of

or about the Property, such insurance (A) to be on the so-called
"occurrence" form with a combined limit, including umbrella coverage, of
not less than Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00); (B) to
continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed
by Lender in
52
writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection
inadequate; and (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises
and operations; (2) products and completed operations on an "if any" basis;
(3) independent contractors; (4) blanket contractual liability for all
legal contracts; and (5) contractual liability covering the indemnities
contained in Article 9 of the Mortgage to the extent the same is available;
(iii) business income insurance (A) with loss payable to Lender;
(B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for
in subsection (i) above; (C) covering rental losses or business
interruption, as may be applicable, for a period of at least twelve (12)
months after the date of the casualty; and (D) in an annual amount equal to
100% of the rents or estimated gross revenues from the operation of the
Property (as reduced to reflect expenses not incurred during a period of
Restoration). The amount of such business income insurance shall be
determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter
based on Borrower's reasonable estimate of the gross income from the
Property for the succeeding twelve (12) month period. All proceeds payable
to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be
applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time
due and payable hereunder and under the Note; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its
obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the
respective dates of payment provided for in the Note and the other Loan
Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the
proceeds of such business income insurance;
(iv) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or
alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, and only if
the Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (A) owner's contingent
or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under
the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability
insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (i)
above written in a so-called builder's risk completed value form (1) on a
non-reporting basis, (2) against all risks insured against pursuant to
subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the Property, and
(4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;
(v) workers' compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the
State;
(vi) comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, if applicable,
in amounts as shall be reasonably required by Lender on terms consistent
with the commercial property insurance policy required under subsection (i)
above;
(vii) umbrella liability insurance in an amount not less than Five
Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) per occurrence on terms
consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required
under subsection (ii) above;
(viii) if any of the policies of insurance covering the risks
required to be covered under subsections (i) through (vii) above contains
an exclusion from coverage for acts of terrorism, Borrower shall obtain and
maintain a separate policy providing such coverages in the event of any act
of terrorism, provided such coverage is commercially available for
53
properties similar to the Property and located in or around the region in
which the Property is located. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower
shall not be required to obtain such a policy, provided (I) Borrower
confirms to Lender, in writing, that it shall protect and hold Lender
harmless from any losses associated with such risks by, among other things,
either (A) depositing with Lender sums sufficient to pay for all uninsured
costs related to a Restoration of the Property following any act of
terrorism (which sum shall be treated as a Net Proceeds Deficiency), or (B)
provided such act of terrorism occurs on or after the Permitted Prepayment
Date, prepaying the Loan in accordance with the terms hereof, including,
without limitation, the payment of any Prepayment Consideration due in
connection therewith; (II) Inland Western Retail Real Estate Trust, Inc.
("TERRORISM INSURANCE GUARANTOR") executes a guaranty, in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender, guaranteeing in the event of any act of
terrorism, payment to Lender of any sums that Borrower is obligated to pay
to Lender under clause (I) above (which shall be applied in accordance with
Section 6.4 hereof) and (III) Terrorism Insurance Guarantor maintains a net
worth of at least $300,000,000 (as determined by such entity's most recent
audited financial statements), such entity maintains a direct or indirect
ownership interest in Borrower, and the aggregate loan-to-value ratio (as
determined by Lender) ("LTV") for all properties on which such entity has a
direct or indirect ownership interest shall not exceed 55%, however,
Terrorism Insurance Guarantor may exceed the 55% LTV for a period not to
exceed six (6) months out of any twelve (12) month period either 1) during
the time period when Terrorism Insurance Guarantor is offering securities
to the public, or 2) when in the business judgement of Terrorism Insurance
Guarantor, exceeding an LTV of 55% is necessary given existing
circumstances of the credit environment, but in no event shall the LTV
exceed 65% if Terrorism Insurance Guarantor maintains a net worth greater
than or equal to $300,000,000, but less than $400,000,000, or 70% if
Terrorism Insurance Guarantor maintains a net worth of at least
$400,000,000.
(ix) upon sixty (60) days' written notice, such other reasonable
insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may
reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time
are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located
in or around the region in which the Property is located.
(b) All insurance provided for in Section 6.1(a) shall be
obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the "POLICIES" or
in the singular, the "POLICY"), and shall be subject to the approval of Lender
as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The
Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance
companies authorized to do business in the State and having a rating of "A:X" or
better in the current Best's Insurance Reports and a claims paying ability
rating of "AA" or better by at least two (2) of the Rating Agencies including,
(i) Standard & Poor's Ratings Group, and (ii) ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Investors Services, Inc.
if ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Investors Service, Inc. is rating the Securities. The Policies
described in Section 6.1 (other than those strictly limited to liability
protection) shall designate Lender as loss payee. Not less than thirty (30) days
prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender,
certificates of insurance evidencing the Policies accompanied by evidence
satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due thereunder (the "INSURANCE
PREMIUMS"), shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender.
54
(c) Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to
the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and
shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring
only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 6.1(a).
(d) All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by
Section 6.1(a), except for the Policy referenced in Section 6.1(a)(v), shall
name Borrower, or the applicable Tenant, as the insured and Lender as the
additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property
damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a
so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender
providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.
(e) All Policies of insurance provided for in Section 6.1(a)
shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:
(i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for
Borrower, or of any Tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the
provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of
the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or
enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;
(ii) the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to
increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least thirty
(30) days' written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an
additional insured;
(iii) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if
the Policy has not been renewed fifteen (15) days prior to its expiration;
and
(iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon
or subject to any assessments thereunder.
(f) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence
that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall
have the right, after ten (10) Business Days written notice to Borrower, to take
such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property,
including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as
Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Lender
in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in
effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be
secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. If Borrower
fails in so insuring the Property or in so assigning and delivering the
Policies, Lender may, at its option, obtain such insurance using such carriers
and agencies as Lender shall elect from year to year and pay the premiums
therefor, and Borrower will reimburse Lender for any premium so paid, with
interest thereon as stated in the Note from the time of payment, on demand, and
the amount so owning to Lender shall be secured by the Mortgage. The insurance
obtained by Lender may, but need not, protect Borrower's interest and the
coverage that Lender purchases may not pay any claim that Borrower makes or any
claim that is made against Borrower in connection with the Property.
55
(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided (in the case of the
Inland Western New Britain Property) that Anchor Tenant is required under the
Anchor Tenant Lease to maintain some or all of the insurance required hereunder
with respect to the Inland Western New Britain Property at its sole cost, and
Anchor Tenant is in compliance with such obligations, such compliance by Anchor
Tenant shall be deemed to satisfy the relevant requirements of this Section 6.1
with respect to such insurance so maintained, except for the requirements of
Section 6.1(a)(viii).
Section 6.2 CASUALTY. If a Property shall be damaged or destroyed,
in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a "CASUALTY"), the applicable
Borrower (a) shall give to Lender prompt notice of such damage reasonably
estimated by Borrower to cost more than One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000.00) to repair, and (b) shall promptly commence and diligently
prosecute the completion of the repair and restoration of the Property as nearly
as possible to the condition the Property was in immediately prior to such fire
or other casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Lender
(a "RESTORATION") and otherwise in accordance with Section 6.4. Borrower shall
pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by
insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not
made promptly by Borrower.
Section 6.3 CONDEMNATION.
(a) Each Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual
or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of its
Property and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in
connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such
proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all
instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its
expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with
Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or
defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or
quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not
limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of
such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the
manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt
shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and
applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the
reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest
paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive
out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note.
If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority,
Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the
Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 6.4. If the
Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by
Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency
judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the
Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided (in the case of the
Inland Western New Britain Property) that the Anchor Tenant Lease continues to
be in full force and effect, Anchor Tenant remains the Tenant under such Anchor
Tenant Lease, and no default shall then exist under the Anchor Tenant Lease, in
the event of a conflict between the terms set forth
56
in subsection 6.3(a) and the terms of the Anchor Tenant Lease, the Anchor Tenant
Lease shall govern and control.
Section 6.4 RESTORATION. With respect to each Property, provided
the Tenant Lease in place as of the date hereof continues to be in full force
and effect, the applicable Tenant remains the Tenant under such Tenant Lease,
and no default shall then exist under such Tenant Lease, the applicable Tenant
Lease shall govern and control in the event of a conflict between the following
provisions of this Section 6.4 and the Tenant Lease regarding the Restoration of
a Property:
(a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than Relevant Restoration
Threshold and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the
Relevant Restoration Threshold, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to
the applicable Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set
forth in clauses (A), (E), (F), (G), (H), (J) and (L) of Section 6.4(b)(i) below
are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously
commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Relevant
Restoration Threshold or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or
greater than the Relevant Restoration Threshold, then in either case, Lender
shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.4(b). The term "NET PROCEEDS" for purposes of this
Section 6.4 shall mean: (x) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by
Lender pursuant to Section 6.1(a)(i), (iv), (vi) and (viii) as a result of such
damage or destruction, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses
(including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting
same ("INSURANCE PROCEEDS"), or (y) the net amount of the Award, after deduction
of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable
counsel fees), if any, in collecting same ("CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS"), whichever
the case may be.
(i) The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for
Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met:
(A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing:
(B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance
Proceeds, and (x) less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the
total floor area of the Improvements on the Property has been
damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such
fire or other casualty, or (y) Borrower is required under a
Lease exceeding the Relevant Leasing Threshold to use the Net
Proceeds for the restoration of the Property, or (2) in the
event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, and (x)
less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the
Property is taken, and such land is located along the
perimeter or periphery of the Property, and no portion of the
Improvements is located on such land, or (y) Borrower is
required under a Lease exceeding the Relevant Leasing
Threshold to use the Net Proceeds for the restoration of the
Property;
57
(C) Leases demising in the aggregate a percentage
amount equal to or greater than the Rentable Space Percentage
of the total rentable space in the Property which has been
demised under executed and delivered Leases in effect as of
the date of the occurrence of such fire or other casualty or
taking, whichever the case may be, shall remain in full force
and effect during and after the completion of the
Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of any such fire
or other casualty or taking, whichever the case may be, and
will make all necessary repairs and restorations thereto at
their sole cost and expense. The term "RENTABLE SPACE
PERCENTAGE" shall mean (x) in the event the Net Proceeds are
Insurance Proceeds, a percentage amount equal to fifty
percent (50%) and (y) in the event the Net Proceeds are
Condemnation Proceeds, a percentage amount equal to fifty
percent (50%);
(D) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as
reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety
(90) days after such damage or destruction or taking,
whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently
pursue the same to satisfactory completion;
(E) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating
deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and
interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect
to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such
fire or other casualty or taking, whichever the case may be,
will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the
insurance coverage referred to in Section 6.1(a)(iii), if
applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrower;
(F) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will
be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) the
Maturity Date, (2) the earliest date required for such
completion under the terms of any Leases, (3) such time as
may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule
or regulation in order to repair and restore the Property to
the condition it was in immediately prior to such fire or
other casualty or to as nearly as possible the condition it
was in immediately prior to such taking, as applicable or (4)
the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in
Section 6.1(a)(iii);
(G) the Property and the use thereof after the
Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under
all applicable zoning laws, ordinances, rules and regulations
provided, however, that compliance with such zoning laws,
ordinances, rules and regulations (including, without
limitation, parking requirements) will not require
restoration of the Improvements or the Property to a size,
condition, or configuration materially different than that
which existed immediately prior to such Casualty or taking;
58
(H) the Restoration shall be done and completed by
Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in
compliance with all applicable governmental laws, rules and
regulations (including, without limitation, all applicable
environmental laws);
(I) such fire or other casualty or taking, as
applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the
Property or the related Improvements;
(J) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to the
applicable Property and the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage
Ratio, after giving effect to the Restoration, shall be equal
to or greater than 2.4:1.0;
(K) Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to
Lender a signed detailed budget approved in writing by
Borrower's architect or engineer stating the entire cost of
completing the Restoration, which budget should be consistent
with restoration budgets of similar retail properties then
owned and operated by nationally recognized owners and
operators of retail properties located in the areas in which
the Property is located; and
(L) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash
equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient
in Lender's discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration.
(ii) The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in an interest
bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 6.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and
other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be
disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time
during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory
to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed to
be paid for out of the requested disbursement in connection with the
Restoration have been performed, and (B) there exist no notices of
pendency, stop orders, mechanic's or materialman's liens or notices of
intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature
whatsoever on the Property which have not either been fully bonded to the
satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully
insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the
Title Insurance Policy.
(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the
Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects
by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the
"CASUALTY CONSULTANT"), such review and acceptance not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. Lender shall have the use of the plans and
specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained
in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors,
subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the
contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior
review and acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant, such review
and acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld
59
or delayed. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with
making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without
limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty
Consultant's fees, shall be paid by Borrower.
(iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements
of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually
incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as
certified by the Casualty Consultant, MINUS the Casualty Retainage. The
term "CASUALTY RETAINAGE" shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%)
of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the
Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration
has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and
notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section
6.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from
contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The
Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant
certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) and that all approvals necessary
for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all
appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Lender
receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration
have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty
Retainage; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Lender will release the portion of the
Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor,
subcontractor, or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date
upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor,
subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has
supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the
contractor's, subcontractor's or materialman's contract, the contractor,
subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of
payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or
materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title
company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an
endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority
of the lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable
for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such
portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company,
if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the
contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the
Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance
thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with
the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the
costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in
connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit
the deficiency (the "NET PROCEEDS DEFICIENCY") with Lender before any
further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds
Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be
disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on
the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and
until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 6.4(b)
60
shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations
under the Loan Documents.
(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining
balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after
the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been
completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b), and the
receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs
incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall
be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have
occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents.
(c) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for
the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds
pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(vii) may be retained and applied by Lender toward the
payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority
and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper (provided no
Event of Default exists, such Borrower shall not be required to pay any
Prepayment Consideration in connection with such payment), or, at the discretion
of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for
such purposes as Lender shall designate, in its discretion.
(d) In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage with respect to a
Property, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole
or in part of the Debt all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the
Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the Property and
all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such
foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of
title.
(e) Lender shall with reasonable promptness following any
Casualty or Condemnation notify Borrower whether or not Net Proceeds are
required to be made available to Borrower for restoration pursuant to this
Section 6.4. All Net Proceeds not required to be made available for Restoration
shall be retained and applied by Lender in accordance with SECTION 2.3.2(a)
hereof (a "NET PROCEEDS PREPAYMENT"). If such Net Proceeds Prepayment for the
Inland Park Place Property shall be equal to or greater than Five Million Five
Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($5,500,000.00), or for the Inland Western
New Britain Property shall be equal to or greater than Two Million Five Hundred
Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00), or (with respect to the Inland
Western New Britain Property) if Anchor Tenant terminates the Anchor Tenant
Lease as a result of such Casualty or Condemnation, Borrower shall have the
right to elect to prepay the remaining outstanding principal balance of the
applicable Note (a "CASUALTY/CONDEMNATION PREPAYMENT") in accordance with
SECTION 2.3.2(b) hereof upon satisfaction of the following conditions: (i)
within thirty (30) days following the date of the Net Proceeds Prepayment,
Borrower shall provide Lender with written notice of Borrower's intention to pay
the applicable Note in full, (ii) Borrower shall pay the applicable Note in
accordance with Section 2.3.2(b) hereof on or before the second Payment Date
following the date of the Net Proceeds Prepayment, and (iii) no Event of Default
shall exist on the date of such Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment.
Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 to the contrary, Borrower
shall have no obligation to commence Restoration of
61
the Property upon delivery of the written notice set forth in clause (i) of the
preceding sentence (unless Borrower subsequently shall fail to satisfy the
requirement of clause (ii) of the preceding sentence).

Property, if any, as more particularly set forth on SCHEDULE III hereto (such
repairs hereinafter referred to as "REQUIRED REPAIRS") within six (6) months
from the Closing Date, or such earlier time as specified on SCHEDULE III. If
Borrower has not delivered to Lender evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender
that it has completed all Required Repairs on or before the date that is six (6)
months from the Closing Date, or such earlier time as specified on SCHEDULE III,
each Borrower shall deposit with Lender the amount for its Property set forth on

the Closing Date. Upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default, Lender, at
its option, may withdraw all Required Repair Funds from the Required Repair
Account and Lender may apply such funds either to completion of the Required
Repairs at the Property or toward payment of the Debt in such order, proportion
and priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion. Lender's right to
withdraw and apply Required Repair Funds shall be in addition to all other
rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.
7.1.2 RELEASE OF REQUIRED REPAIR FUNDS. Lender shall disburse to
Borrower the Required Repair Funds from the Required Repair Account from time to
time upon satisfaction by Borrower of each of the following conditions: (i)

Person that supplied materials or labor in connection with the Required Repairs
performed at the Property to be funded by the requested disbursement under a
contract in excess of $50,000, and (C) stating that each Person who has
62

search for the Property indicating that the Property is free from all liens,
claims and other encumbrances not previously approved by Lender, and (v) Lender
shall have received such other evidence as Lender shall reasonably request that

and such disbursement shall be made only upon satisfaction of each condition
contained in this Section 7.1.2.
Section 7.2 TAX AND INSURANCE ESCROW FUND. Each Borrower shall pay
to Lender on each Payment Date (a) one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender
estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to
accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty
(30) days prior to their respective due dates and (b) one-twelfth of the
Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the
coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to
accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at
least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies, (said amounts in
(a) and (b) above are hereinafter called the "TAX AND INSURANCE ESCROW FUND").
The Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund and the payments of interest or principal or
both, payable pursuant to the Note, shall be added together and shall be paid as
an aggregate sum by Borrower to Lender. Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance
Escrow Fund to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by
Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and under the Mortgage. In making any
payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, Lender may do so
according to any ▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate
public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to
Insurance Premiums) or from Borrower without inquiry into the accuracy of such
▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale,
forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof, provided, however, Lender shall
use reasonable efforts to pay such real property taxes sufficiently early to
obtain the benefit of any available discounts of which it has knowledge. If the
amount of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall exceed the amounts due for
Taxes and Insurance Premiums, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any
excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to
the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. The Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall be
held by Lender in an interest-bearing account and shall at Lender's option be
held in an Eligible Account at an Eligible Institution. Any interest earned on
said account shall accrue in said account for the benefit of Borrower, but shall
remain in and constitute part of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, and shall be
disbursed in accordance with the terms hereof. Any amount remaining in the Tax
and Insurance Escrow Fund after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned
to Borrower. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal with the Person shown on
the records of Lender to be the owner of the Property. If at any time Lender
reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund is not or will not
be sufficient to pay Taxes or Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth above,
Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase
its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient
to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the
Taxes or Insurance Premiums.
63
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary hereinbefore contained, in the event
that Borrower provides (1) evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Property is
insured in accordance with Section 6.1 of this Agreement and (2) evidence
satisfactory to Lender that the Taxes for the Property have been paid in
accordance with the requirements set forth in this Agreement, Lender will waive
the requirement set forth herein for Borrower to make deposits into the Tax and
Insurance Escrow Fund for the payment of Insurance Premiums and for payment of
such Taxes, provided, however, Lender expressly reserves the right to require
Borrower to make deposits to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund for the payment
of Insurance Premiums if at any time the Property is not insured in accordance
with Section 6.1 of this Agreement or Taxes are not paid in accordance with the
requirements of this Agreement.
Section 7.3 REPLACEMENTS AND REPLACEMENT RESERVE.
7.3.1 REPLACEMENT RESERVE FUND. Each Borrower shall pay to Lender
on the date hereof and on each Payment Date one twelfth of the amount (the
"REPLACEMENT RESERVE MONTHLY DEPOSIT") reasonably estimated by Lender in its
sole discretion to be due for replacements and repairs required to be made to
its Property during the calendar year (collectively, the "REPLACEMENTS"), which
Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit shall be in an amount equal to no less than
$0.15 per year per square foot of gross leasable area. Amounts so deposited
shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower's "REPLACEMENT RESERVE FUND" and
the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as
Borrower's "REPLACEMENT RESERVE ACCOUNT". Lender may reassess its estimate of
the amount necessary for the Replacement Reserve Fund from time to time, and may
increase the monthly amounts required to be deposited into the Replacement
Reserve Fund upon thirty (30) days notice to Borrower if Lender determines in
its reasonable discretion that an increase is necessary to maintain the proper
maintenance and operation of the Property. Any amount held in the Replacement
Reserve Account and allocated for the Property shall be retained by Lender in an
interest bearing account, or, at the option of Lender, in an Eligible Account at
an Eligible Institution; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, any interest earned on said
account shall accrue in said account for the benefit of Borrower, but shall
remain in and constitute part of the Replacement Reserve Fund, and shall be
disbursed in accordance with the terms hereof..
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.3, Borrower shall not
be required to make Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposits, provided that: (i) no
Event of Default shall have occurred; and (ii) Borrower makes all necessary
Replacements and otherwise maintains the Property to Lender's satisfaction. Upon
notice from Lender following: (a) an Event of Default; or (b) the failure of
Borrower to make necessary Replacements or otherwise maintain the Property to
Lender's satisfaction, Borrower shall begin to deposit the Replacement Reserve
Monthly Deposit into the Replacement Reserve Fund beginning on the Payment Date
(as defined herein) immediately following the date of such notice.
Section 7.3.2 DISBURSEMENTS FROM REPLACEMENT RESERVE ACCOUNT.
(a) Lender shall make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve
Account to pay Borrower only for the costs of the Replacements. Lender shall not
be obligated to make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account to
reimburse Borrower for the costs of
64
routine maintenance to the Property or for costs which are to be reimbursed from
the Required Repair Fund (if any).
(b) Lender shall, upon written request from Borrower and
satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Section 7.3.2, disburse to
Borrower amounts from the Replacement Reserve Account necessary to pay for the
actual approved costs of Replacements or to reimburse Borrower therefor, upon
completion of such Replacements (or, upon partial completion in the case of
Replacements made pursuant to Section 7.3.2(f)) as determined by Lender. In no
event shall Lender be obligated to disburse funds from the Replacement Reserve
Account if a Default or an Event of Default exists.
(c) Each request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve
Account shall be in a form specified or approved by Lender and shall specify (i)
the specific Replacements for which the disbursement is requested, (ii) the
quantity and price of each item purchased, if the Replacement includes the
purchase or replacement of specific items, (iii) the price of all materials
(grouped by type or category) used in any Replacement other than the purchase or
replacement of specific items, and (iv) the cost of all contracted labor or
other services applicable to each Replacement for which such request for
disbursement is made. With each request Borrower shall certify that all
Replacements have been made in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements
of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Property to which the
Replacements are being provided and, unless Lender has agreed to issue joint
checks as described below, each request shall include evidence of payment of all
such amounts. Each request for disbursement shall include copies of invoices for
all items or materials purchased and all contracted labor or services provided.
Except as provided in Section 7.3.2(e), each request for disbursement from the
Replacement Reserve Account shall be made only after completion of the
Replacement for which disbursement is requested. Borrower shall provide Lender
evidence of completion satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable judgment.
(d) Borrower shall pay all invoices in connection with the
Replacements with respect to which a disbursement is requested prior to
submitting such request for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account
or, at the request of Borrower, Lender will issue joint checks, payable to
Borrower and the contractor, supplier, materialman, mechanic, subcontractor or
other party to whom payment is due in connection with a Replacement. In the case
of payments made by joint check, Lender may require a waiver of lien from each
Person receiving payment prior to Lender's disbursement from the Replacement
Reserve Account. In addition, as a condition to any disbursement, Lender may
require Borrower to obtain lien waivers from each contractor, supplier,
materialman, mechanic or subcontractor who receives payment in an amount equal
to or greater than $100,000 for completion of its work or delivery of its
materials. Any lien waiver delivered hereunder shall conform to the requirements
of applicable law and shall cover all work performed and materials supplied
(including equipment and fixtures) for the Property by that contractor,
supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialman through the date covered by the
current reimbursement request (or, in the event that payment to such contractor,
supplier, subcontractor, mechanic or materialmen is to be made by a joint check,
the release of lien shall be effective through the date covered by the previous
release of funds request).
(e) If (i) the cost of a Replacement exceeds $100,000, (ii) the
contractor performing such Replacement requires periodic payments pursuant to
terms of a written contract,
65
and (iii) Lender has approved in writing in advance such periodic payments, a
request for reimbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account may be made after
completion of a portion of the work under such contract, provided (A) such
contract requires payment upon completion of such portion of the work, (B) the
materials for which the request is made are on site at the Property and are
properly secured or have been installed in the Property, (C) all other
conditions in this Agreement for disbursement have been satisfied, (D) funds
remaining in the Replacement Reserve Account are, in Lender's judgment,
sufficient to complete such Replacement and other Replacements when required,
and (E) if required by Lender, each contractor or subcontractor receiving
payments under such contract shall provide a waiver of lien with respect to
amounts which have been paid to that contractor or subcontractor.
(f) Borrower shall not make a request for disbursement from the
Replacement Reserve Account more frequently than once in any calendar month and
(except in connection with the final disbursement) the total cost of all
Replacements in any request shall not be less than $5,000.00.
Section 7.3.3 PERFORMANCE OF REPLACEMENTS.
(a) Borrower shall make Replacements when required in order to
keep the Property in condition and repair consistent with other first class,
retail properties in the same market segment in the metropolitan area in which
the Property is located, and to keep the Property or any portion thereof from
deteriorating. Borrower shall complete all Replacements in a good and
workmanlike manner as soon as practicable following the commencement of making
each such Replacement.
(b) Lender reserves the right, at its option, to approve all
contracts or work orders with materialmen, mechanics, suppliers, subcontractors,
contractors or other parties providing labor or materials under contracts for an
amount in excess of $100,000 in connection with the Replacements performed by
Borrower. Upon Lender's request, Borrower shall assign any contract or
subcontract to Lender.
(c) In the event Lender determines in its reasonable discretion
that any Replacement is not being performed in a workmanlike or timely manner or
that any Replacement has not been completed in a workmanlike or timely manner,
and such failure continues to exist for more than thirty (30) days after notice
from Lender to Borrower, Lender shall have the option to withhold disbursement
for such unsatisfactory Replacement and to proceed under existing contracts or
to contract with third parties to complete such Replacement and to apply the
Replacement Reserve Fund toward the labor and materials necessary to complete
such Replacement, without providing any prior notice to Borrower and to exercise
any and all other remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default
hereunder.
(d) In order to facilitate Lender's completion or making of the
Replacements pursuant to Section 7.3.3(c) above, Borrower grants Lender the
right to enter onto the Property and perform any and all work and labor
necessary to complete or make the Replacements and/or employ watchmen to protect
the Property from damage, subject to the rights of Tenants. All sums so expended
by Lender, to the extent not from the Replacement Reserve Fund, shall be deemed
to have been advanced under the Loan to Borrower and secured by the Mortgage.
For
66
this purpose Borrower constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to complete or undertake the
Replacements in the name of Borrower. Such power of attorney shall be deemed to
be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked but shall only be
effective following an Event of Default. Borrower empowers said attorney-in-fact
as follows: (i) to use any funds in the Replacement Reserve Account for the
purpose of making or completing the Replacements; (ii) to make such additions,
changes and corrections to the Replacements as shall be necessary or desirable
to complete the Replacements; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors,
agents, architects and inspectors as shall be required for such purposes; (iv)
to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may
become Liens against the Property, or as may be necessary or desirable for the
completion of the Replacements, or for clearance of title; (v) to execute all
applications and certificates in the name of Borrower which may be required by
any of the contract documents; (vi) to prosecute and defend all actions or
proceedings in connection with the Property or the rehabilitation and repair of
the Property; and (vii) to do any and every act which Borrower might do in its
own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Agreement.
(e) Nothing in this Section 7.3.3 shall: (i) make Lender
responsible for making or completing the Replacements; (ii) require Lender to
expend funds in addition to the Replacement Reserve Fund to make or complete any
Replacement; (iii) obligate Lender to proceed with the Replacements; or (iv)
obligate Lender to demand from Borrower additional sums to make or complete any
Replacement.
(f) Borrower shall permit Lender and Lender's agents and
representatives (including, without limitation, Lender's engineer, architect, or
inspector) or third parties making Replacements pursuant to this Section 7.3.3
to enter onto the Property during normal business hours (subject to the rights
of tenants under their Leases) to inspect the progress of any Replacements and
all materials being used in connection therewith, to examine all plans and shop
drawings relating to such Replacements which are or may be kept at the Property,
and to complete any Replacements made pursuant to this Section 7.3.3. Borrower
shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Lender or
Lender's representatives or such other persons described above in connection
with inspections described in this Section 7.3.3(f) or the completion of
Replacements pursuant to this Section 7.3.3.
(g) Lender may require an inspection of the Property at
Borrower's expense prior to making a monthly disbursement in excess of $10,000
from the Replacement Reserve Account in order to verify completion of the
Replacements for which reimbursement is sought. Lender may require that such
inspection be conducted by an appropriate independent qualified professional
selected by Lender and/or may require a copy of a certificate of completion by
an independent qualified professional acceptable to Lender prior to the
disbursement of any amounts from the Replacement Reserve Account. Borrower shall
pay the expense of the inspection as required hereunder, whether such inspection
is conducted by Lender or by an independent qualified professional.
(h) The Replacements and all materials, equipment, fixtures, or
any other item comprising a part of any Replacement shall be constructed,
installed or completed, as applicable, free and clear of all mechanic's,
materialman's or other liens (except for those Liens existing on the date of
this Agreement which have been approved in writing by Lender).
67
(i) Before each disbursement from the Replacement Reserve
Account, Lender may require Borrower to provide Lender with a search of title to
the Property effective to the date of the disbursement, which search shows that
no mechanic's or materialmen's liens or other liens of any nature have been
placed against the Property since the date of recordation of the Mortgage and
that title to the Property is free and clear of all Liens (other than the lien
of the Mortgage and any other Liens previously approved in writing by Lender, if
any).
(j) All Replacements shall comply with all applicable Legal
Requirements of all Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction over the
Property and applicable insurance requirements including, without limitation,
applicable building codes, special use permits, environmental regulations, and
requirements of insurance underwriters.
(k) In addition to any insurance required under the Loan
Documents, Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided workmen's compensation
insurance, builder's risk, and public liability insurance and other insurance to
the extent required under applicable law in connection with a particular
Replacement. All such policies shall be in form and amount reasonably
satisfactory to Lender. All such policies which can be endorsed with standard
mortgagee clauses making loss payable to Lender or its assigns shall be so
endorsed. Certified copies of such policies shall be delivered to Lender.
Section 7.3.4 FAILURE TO MAKE REPLACEMENTS.
(a) It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement if a
Borrower fails to comply with any provision of this Section 7.3 and such failure
is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice from Lender; PROVIDED,
however, if such failure is not capable of being cured within said thirty (30)
day period, then provided that Borrower commences action to complete such cure
and thereafter diligently proceeds to complete such cure, such thirty (30) day
period shall be extended for such time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower,
in the exercise of due diligence, to cure such failure, but such additional
period of time shall not exceed sixty (60) days. Upon the occurrence of such an
Event of Default, Lender may use the Replacement Reserve Fund (or any portion
thereof) for any purpose, including but not limited to completion of the
Replacements as provided in Section 7.3.3, or for any other repair or
replacement to the Property or toward payment of the Debt in such order,
proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion. Lender's
right to withdraw and apply the Replacement Reserve Funds shall be in addition
to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.
(b) Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all
or any portion of the Replacement Reserve Fund on account of an Event of Default
to payment of the Debt or in any specific order or priority.
Section 7.3.5 BALANCE IN THE REPLACEMENT RESERVE ACCOUNT. The insufficiency
of any balance in the Replacement Reserve Account shall not relieve Borrower
from its obligation to fulfill all preservation and maintenance covenants in the
Loan Documents.
Section 7.3.6 INDEMNIFICATION. Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold
Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands,
liabilities, losses,
68
damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and
reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected
with the performance of the Replacements unless the same are solely due to gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Lender. Borrower shall assign to Lender all
rights and claims Borrower may have against all persons or entities supplying
labor or materials in connection with the Replacements; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has
occurred and remains uncured.
Section 7.4 INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
Section 7.5 INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
Section 7.6 INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
Section 7.7 RESERVE FUNDS, GENERALLY.
7.7.1 Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security
interest in each of the Reserve Funds and any and all monies now or hereafter
deposited in each Reserve Fund as additional security for payment of the Debt.
Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds shall
constitute additional security for the Debt.
7.7.2 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, in
addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Lender, apply any
sums then present in any or all of the Reserve Funds to the payment of the Debt
in any order in its sole discretion.
7.7.3 The Reserve Funds shall not constitute trust funds and may be
commingled with other monies held by Lender.
7.7.4 Intentionally omitted.
7.7.5 Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written
consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any
Reserve Fund or the monies deposited therein or permit any lien or encumbrance
to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing
Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with
respect thereto.
7.7.6 Lender shall not be liable for any loss sustained on the
investment of any funds constituting the Reserve Funds unless occasioned by the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender.
7.7.7 Upon payment in full of the Debt and performance of all other
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender shall
disburse to Borrower all remaining Reserve Funds.

the applicable due date;
(ii) if any of the Taxes or Other Charges are not paid prior to the
date when the same become delinquent, except to the extent that Borrower is
contesting same in accordance with the terms of Section 5.1.2 hereof, or
there are sufficient funds in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund to pay such
Taxes or Other Charges and Lender fails to or refuses to release the same
from the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund;
(iii) if the Policies are not kept in full force and effect, or if
certified copies of the Policies are not delivered to Lender within ten
(10) days of request;

guaranty or indemnity issued in connection with the Loan shall make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors;
(vii) if a receiver, liquidator or trustee shall be appointed for
any Borrower or any guarantor or indemnitor under any guarantee or
indemnity issued in connection with the Loan or if any Borrower or such
guarantor or indemnitor shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or if
any petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement pursuant to
federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, shall be filed
by or against, consented to, or acquiesced in by, any Borrower or such
guarantor or indemnitor, or if any proceeding for the dissolution or
liquidation of any Borrower or such guarantor or indemnitor shall be

of a sum of money, or for thirty (30) days after notice from Lender in the
case of any other Default; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such non-monetary
Default is susceptible of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such
30-day period and provided further that Borrower shall have commenced to
cure such Default within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently and
expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such 30-day period shall be
extended for such time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower in the
exercise of due diligence to cure such Default, such additional period not
to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days; or
(xiii) if there shall be default under any of the other Loan Documents
beyond any applicable cure periods contained in such documents, whether as
to a Borrower or a Property, or if any other such event shall occur or
condition shall exist, if the effect of such event or condition is to
accelerate the maturity of any portion of the Debt or to permit Lender to
accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Debt.
(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event
of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and at any time
thereafter Lender may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to
it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in
equity, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems
advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in the
Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately
due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or
remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Property,
including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in
equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii)
above, the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable,
without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice
or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the
contrary notwithstanding.
Section 8.2 REMEDIES.
(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or
more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender
against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
executed and delivered by, or applicable to,
71
Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from
time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and
payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure
proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under
any of the Loan Documents with respect to any Property. Any such actions taken
by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently,
singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as
Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of
Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the
other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower
agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to
any "one action" or "election of remedies" law or rule, and (ii) all liens and
other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full
force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against each
Property and each Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized
upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.
(b) Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially
foreclose a Mortgage in any manner and for any amounts secured by such Mortgage
then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including,
without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event a Borrower
defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more
scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose a Mortgage to
recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to
accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan,
Lender may foreclose a Mortgage to recover so much of the principal balance of
the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by such Mortgages
as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, one or
more applicable Property shall remain subject to the applicable Mortgage to
secure payment of sums secured by such Mortgage and not previously recovered.
(c) Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever a Note
and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and
other security documents (the "SEVERED LOAN DOCUMENTS") in such denominations as
Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and
enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and
deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a
severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to
effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and
irrevocably appoints Lender following the occurrence of an Event of Default as
its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to
make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid
severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue
thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents
under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by
Lender of Lender's intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower
shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with
the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents,
and the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties
or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations
and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower
only as of the Closing Date.
72
(d) As used in this Section 8.2, a "foreclosure" shall include any
sale by power of sale.
Section 8.3 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE; WAIVERS. The rights, powers and
remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of
any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant
to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity
or otherwise. Lender's rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly,
concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may
determine in Lender's sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any
remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such
remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such
remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be
deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to
Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or
Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent
thereon.
ARTICLE IX
SPECIAL PROVISIONS
Section 9.1 SALE OF NOTES AND SECURITIZATION. At the request of the
holder of a Note and, to the extent not already required to be provided by
Borrower under this Agreement, Borrower shall cooperate with Lender to allow
Lender to satisfy the market standards to which the holder of the Note
customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by
the Rating Agencies in connection with the sale of the Note or participations
therein or the first successful securitization (such sale and/or securitization,
the "SECURITIZATION") of rated single or multi-class securities (the
"SECURITIES") secured by or evidencing ownership interests in the Note and the
applicable Mortgage. In this regard Borrower shall:
(a) (i) provide such financial and other information with respect
to the Property, Borrower and the MANAGER, (ii) provide budgets relating to the
Property and (iii) perform or permit or cause to be performed or permitted such
site inspection, appraisals, market studies, environmental reviews and reports
(Phase I's and, if appropriate, Phase II's), engineering reports and other due
diligence investigations of the Property, as may be reasonably requested by the
holder of the Note or the Rating Agencies or as may be necessary or appropriate
in connection with the Securitization (the "PROVIDED INFORMATION"), together, if
customary, with appropriate verification and/or consents of the Provided
Information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent
attorneys acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies;
(b) cause counsel to render opinions, which may be relied upon by
the holder of the Note, the Rating Agencies and their respective counsel, agents
and representatives, as to non-consolidation, fraudulent conveyance, and true
sale and/or lease or any other opinion customary in securitization transactions,
which counsel and opinions shall be reasonably satisfactory to the holder of the
Note and the Rating Agencies;
73
(c) make such representations and warranties as of the closing date
of the Securitization with respect to the Property, Borrower, and the Loan
Documents as are consistent with the representations and warranties made in the
Loan Documents; and
(d) execute such amendments to the Loan Documents and organizational
documents as may be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note or the Rating
Agencies or otherwise to effect the Securitization; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such
modification or amendment would (i) change the interest rate, the stated
maturity or the amortization of principal set forth in the Note, or (ii) modify
or amend any other material economic term of the Loan.
All material out-of-pocket third party costs and expenses incurred by
Borrower in connection with complying with requests made under this Section 9.1
shall be paid by Lender.
Section 9.2 SECURITIZATION. Borrower understands that certain of
the Provided Information may be included in disclosure documents in connection
with the Securitization, including, without limitation, a prospectus, prospectus
supplement or private placement memorandum (each, a "DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT") and
may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), or
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "EXCHANGE ACT"), or
provided or made available to investors or prospective investors in the
Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the
Securitization. In the event that the Disclosure Document is required to be
revised prior to the sale of all Securities, Borrower will cooperate with the
holder of the Note in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current
information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in
all material respects.
Section 9.3 RATING SURVEILLANCE. Lender, at its option, may retain
the Rating Agencies to provide rating surveillance services on any certificates
issued in a Securitization. Such rating surveillance will be at the expense of
Lender (the "RATING SURVEILLANCE CHARGE").
Section 9.4 EXCULPATION. Subject to the qualifications below,
Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and
observe the obligations contained in the Notes, this Agreement, the Mortgages or
the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment
shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure
action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or
proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under the
Notes, this Agreement, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents, or in one or
more Properties, the Rents following an Event of Default, or any other
collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however,
that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be enforceable against a Borrower only to the extent of
Borrower's interest in the Property, in the Rents following an Event of Default
and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Notes,
this Agreement, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents, agrees that it shall
not ▇▇▇ for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such
action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with the
Notes, this Agreement, the Mortgages or the other Loan Documents. The provisions
of this section shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or
impairment of
74
any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (b) impair the
right of Lender to name a Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit
for foreclosure and sale under any of the Mortgages; (c) affect the validity or
enforceability of or any guaranty made in connection with the Loan or any of the
rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (d) impair the right of Lender to
obtain the appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the enforcement of any of the
Assignments of Leases following an Event of Default; (f) constitute a
prohibition against Lender commencing any other appropriate action or proceeding
in order for Lender to exercise its remedies against any Property; or (g)
constitute a waiver of the right of Lender to enforce the liability and
obligation of a Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of any
loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by
Lender (including attorneys' fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of
or in connection with the following:
(i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation by Borrower or any
guarantor in connection with the Loan;
(ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Borrower;
(iii) material physical waste of its Property;
(iv) the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
indemnification provision in the applicable Environmental Indemnity or in
the applicable Mortgage concerning environmental laws, hazardous substances
and asbestos and any indemnification of Lender with respect thereto in
either document;
(v) the removal or disposal of any portion of the Property after an
Event of Default;
(vi) the misapplication or conversion by Borrower of (A) any
insurance proceeds paid by reason of any loss, damage or destruction to the
Property which are not applied by Borrower in accordance with this
Agreement, (B) any awards or other amounts received in connection with the
condemnation of all or a portion of the Property which are not applied by
Borrower in accordance with this Agreement, or (C) any Rents following an
Event of Default;
(vii) failure to pay charges for labor or materials or other charges
that can create liens on any portion of the Property;
(viii) intentionally omitted; or
(ix) any security deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits
collected with respect to the Property which are not delivered to Lender
upon a foreclosure of the Property or action in lieu thereof, except to the
extent any such security deposits were applied in accordance with the terms
and conditions of any of the Leases prior to the occurrence of the Event of
Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Note
or any of the Loan Documents, (A) the Debt shall be fully recourse to each
Borrower and (B) Lender shall
75
not be deemed to have waived any right which Lender may have under Section
506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to
file a claim for the full amount of the Debt secured by the Mortgages or to
require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Debt owing to
Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents in the event that the (I) first
full monthly payment under any Note is not paid within five (5) days of notice
that such payment is late (provided, however, that such grace period relates
only to the recourse trigger described in this paragraph), or (II) failure of
any Borrower to permit on-site inspections of its Property subject to the rights
of Tenants and any applicable cure period set forth in the Loan Documents, to
provide financial information as required under the Loan Documents subject to
any applicable cure period (except for financial information required to be
delivered by a tenant pursuant to the applicable Lease that has not been
delivered to Borrower, provided Borrower has requested such financial
information from such tenant), or to comply with Section 4.1.30 hereof, or (III)
failure of any Borrower to obtain Lender's prior written consent (to the extent
such consent is required) to any subordinate financing or other voluntary lien
encumbering its Property, or (IV) failure of any Borrower to obtain Lender's
prior written consent to any assignment, transfer or conveyance of its Property,
or any portion thereof, or any interest therein as required by this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the provision set forth in clause (III) of this paragraph, a
voluntary lien OTHER THAN a lien securing an extension of credit filed against a
Property shall not constitute a recourse trigger for purposes of this paragraph
provided such lien (A) is fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and
discharged of record within ninety (90) days of filing, or (B) within such
ninety (90) day period, Lender receives affirmative title insurance from the
title insurance company insuring the lien of the applicable Mortgage that such
lien is subject and subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage and no enforcement
action is commenced by the applicable lien holder.
Section 9.5 TERMINATION OF MANAGER. If (a) the amounts evidenced by
the Note have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.1(b) hereof, (b) the
Manager shall become insolvent, (c) the Manager is in default under the terms of
the Management Agreement beyond any applicable grace or cure period, or (d)
Manager is not managing the Property in accordance with the management practices
of nationally recognized management companies managing similar properties in
locations comparable to those of the Property, then, in the case of (a), (b),
(c) or (d), Borrower shall, at the request of Lender, terminate the Management
Agreement and replace the Manager with a manager reasonably approved by Lender
on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to Lender, it being understood
and agreed that the management fee for such replacement manager shall not exceed
then prevailing market rates. In addition and without limiting the rights of
Lender hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, in the event that (i)
the Management Agreement is terminated, (ii) the Manager no longer manages the
Property, or (iii) a receiver, liquidator or trustee shall be appointed for
Manager or if Manager shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or if any
petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement pursuant to federal
bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, shall be filed by or
against, consented to, or acquiesced in by, Manager, or if any proceeding for
the dissolution or liquidation of Manager shall be instituted, then Borrower (at
Borrower's sole cost and expense) shall immediately, in its name, establish new
deposit accounts separate from any other Person with a depository satisfactory
to Lender into which all Rents and other income from the Property shall be
deposited and shall grant Lender a first priority security interest in such
account pursuant to documentation satisfactory in form and substance to Lender.
76
Section 9.6 SERVICER. At the option of Lender, the Loan may be
serviced by a servicer/trustee (the "SERVICER") selected by Lender and Lender
may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement (the
"SERVICING AGREEMENT") between Lender and Servicer. Lender shall be responsible
for any set-up fees or any other costs relating to or arising under the
Servicing Agreement.
Section 9.7 SPLITTING THE LOAN. At the election of Lender in its
sole discretion, the Loan or any individual Note making up the Loan shall be
split and severed into two or more loans which, at Lender's election, shall not
be cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with each other. Borrower hereby
agrees to deliver to Lender to effectuate such severing of the Loan or any
individual Note, as the case may be, as reasonably requested by Lender, (a)
additional executed documents, or amendments and modifications to the applicable
Loan Documents, (b) new opinions or updates to the opinions delivered to Lender
in connection with the closing of the Loan, (c) endorsements and/or updates to
the title insurance policies delivered to Lender in connection with the closing
of the Loan, and (d) any other certificates, instruments and documentation
reasonably determined by Lender as necessary or appropriate to such severance
(the items described in subsections (a) through (d) collectively hereinafter
shall be referred to as "SEVERING DOCUMENTATION"), which Severing Documentation
shall be acceptable to Lender in form and substance in its reasonable
discretion. Lender hereby agrees to be responsible for all reasonable
third-party expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and delivery of
the Severing Documentation and the effectuation of the uncrossing of the Loan
from the additional Loans. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that upon
such severing of the Loan, Lender may effect, in its sole discretion, one or
more Securitizations of which the severed loans may be a part.
ARTICLE X
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 10.1 SURVIVAL. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered
pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution
and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect
so long as all or any of the Debt is outstanding and unpaid unless a longer
period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in
this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be
deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such
party. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement, by or on behalf
of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors
and assigns of Lender.
Section 10.2 LENDER'S DISCRETION. Whenever pursuant to this
Agreement, Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or
any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender
to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are
satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically
herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and
conclusive.
77
Section 10.3 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A
CONTRACT ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO THE LAWS OF THE STATE IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS

APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAWS.
Section 10.4 MODIFICATION, WAIVER IN WRITING. No modification,
amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement, or of the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any
departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought,
and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, no notice to, or demand on Borrower, shall entitle Borrower to
any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other
circumstances.
Section 10.5 DELAY NOT A WAIVER. Neither any failure nor any delay
on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term,
condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or
privilege hereunder, or under the Note or under any other Loan Document, or any
other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a
waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any
other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or
privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment
after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any
other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either
to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this
Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for
failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other
purpose.
79
Section 10.9 SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
Section 10.10 PREFERENCES.
Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or
reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the
obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or
payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside
or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to
the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or
part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full
force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by
Lender.
Section 10.11 WAIVER OF NOTICE. Borrower shall not be entitled to any
notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for
which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly
provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect
to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements,
permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the
right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly
provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.
Section 10.12 REMEDIES OF BORROWER. In the event that a claim or
adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or
unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an
obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender
nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower's sole
remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or
declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to
determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action
seeking declaratory judgment.
Section 10.13 EXPENSES; INDEMNITY.
(a) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to
pay, to reimburse, Lender upon receipt of written notice from Lender for all
reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) the preparation,
negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower
(including without limitation any opinions requested by Lender as to any legal
matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with respect to
the Property); (ii) Borrower's ongoing performance of and compliance with
Borrower's respective agreements and covenants contained in this
80
Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied
with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming
compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (iii) Lender's ongoing
performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied
with after the Closing Date; (iv) except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration
of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters reasonably
requested by Lender; (v) securing Borrower's compliance with any requests made
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (vi) the filing and recording fees
and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for
providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses
incurred in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vii) enforcing or preserving any
rights, in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any
action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or
affecting Borrower, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Property, or
any other security given for the Loan; and (viii) enforcing any obligations of
or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents or with respect to the Property or in connection with any
refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this
Agreement in the nature of a "work-out" or of any insolvency or bankruptcy
proceedings; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the
payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of
the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender.
(b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender from
and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements
of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel for Lender in connection with any
investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened,
whether or not Lender shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed
on, incurred by, or asserted against Lender in any manner relating to or arising
out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material
misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan
(collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Borrower
shall not have any obligation to Lender hereunder to the extent that such
Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or
willful misconduct of Lender. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify,
defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be
unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay
the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law
to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by
Lender.
Section 10.14 SCHEDULES INCORPORATED. The Schedules annexed hereto
are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect
as if set forth in the body hereof.
Section 10.15 OFFSETS, COUNTERCLAIMS AND DEFENSES. Any assignee of
Lender's interest in and to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan
Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or
defenses which are unrelated to such documents
81
which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no
such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by
Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such
documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset,
counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly
waived by Borrower.
Section 10.16 NO JOINT VENTURE OR PARTNERSHIP; NO THIRD PARTY
BENEFICIARIES.
(a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and
lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture,
partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower
and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of
mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.
(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the
benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and
Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of
any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the
obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and
exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to
require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be
entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of
strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any
circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of
which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender's sole
discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.
Section 10.17 PUBLICITY. All news releases, publicity or advertising
by Borrower or their Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general
public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan
Documents, to Lender, Bear ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject
to the prior written approval of Lender. All news releases, publicity or
advertising by Lender through any media intended to reach the general public
which refers solely to the Borrower or to the Loan made by the Lender to the
Borrower shall be subject to the prior written approval of Borrower, provided
however, the foregoing shall not apply to Provided Information included in
disclosure documents in connection with a Securitization.
Section 10.18 WAIVER OF MARSHALLING OF ASSETS.
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and
its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of
Borrower, Borrower's partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the
Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of
foreclosure of the Mortgage or sale of the Property by power of sale, and agrees
not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets,
the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration
of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or
affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property
for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for
collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net
proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.
82
Section 10.19 WAIVER OF COUNTERCLAIM. Borrower hereby waives the
right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any
action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents.
Section 10.20 CONFLICT; CONSTRUCTION OF DOCUMENTS; RELIANCE. In the
event of any conflict between the provisions of this Loan Agreement and any of
the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Loan Agreement shall control.
The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel
in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents
and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing
their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that,
with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and
advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any
statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent,
subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation
whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any
of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the
Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of
Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower
hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on
the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender's exercise of any such rights
or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real
estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may
be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its
Affiliates.
Section 10.21 BROKERS AND FINANCIAL ADVISORS. Borrower hereby
represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters,
placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement other than Inland Mortgage Corp. Borrower hereby
agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and
all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender's
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from
a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in
connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this
Section 10.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and
the payment of the Debt.
Section 10.22 PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in
respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior
agreements or understandings among or between such parties, whether oral or
written, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and unless specifically set forth in a writing contemporaneous
herewith the terms, conditions and provisions of such prior agreement do not
survive execution of this Agreement.
Section 10.23 TRANSFER OF LOAN. In the event that Lender transfers
the Loan, Borrower shall continue to make payments at the place set forth in the
Note until such time that Borrower is notified in writing by Lender that
payments are to be made at another place.
Section 10.24 LENDER'S RIGHT TO UNWIND CROSS-COLLATERALIZATION/
CROSS-DEFAULT. Lender shall have the right, at any time and from time to time,
to release any Property or
83
Borrower from the cross-defaulting and the cross-collateralization effected
pursuant to the grant of the Guaranty from each Borrower and secured by the lien
of the applicable Mortgage. Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in executing
all documents as may be required in connection therewith. Borrower shall
properly deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender or its designee any
replacement or substitute loan agreements, promissory notes, security
instruments and other loan documents, title, hazard and liability insurance
policies, opinions of counsel and other documents and instruments as Lender may
