Applicable Margin.

(a) On any date, the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans and Base Rate Loans shall be as set forth below based on the ratio of the Consolidated Total Indebtedness to the Consolidated Total Asset Value:

Pricing Level	Ratio	LIBOR Rate Loans			Base Rate Loans
Pricing Level 1	Less than 40%		1.60	%		0.35	%
Pricing Level 2	Greater than or equal to 40% but less than 45%		1.75	%		0.50	%
Pricing Level 3	Greater than or equal to 45% but less than 50%		1.90	%		0.65	%

Pricing Level 5	Greater than or equal to 55%		2.20	%		0.95	%

The initial Applicable Margin shall be at Pricing Level 1. The Applicable Margin shall not be adjusted based upon such ratio, if at all, until the first day of the first month following the delivery by the Borrower to the Agent of the Compliance Certificate after the end of a calendar quarter. In the event that the Borrower shall fail to deliver to the Agent a quarterly Compliance Certificate on or before the date required by §7.4(c), then, without limiting any other rights of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, the Applicable Margin shall be at Pricing Level 5 until such failure is cured within any applicable cure period, or waived in writing by the Majority Lenders, in which event the Applicable Margin shall adjust, if necessary, on the first day of the first month following receipt of such Compliance Certificate.

In the event that the Agent, REIT or the Borrower determine that any financial statements previously delivered were incorrect or inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (a) the Borrower shall as soon as practicable deliver to the Agent the corrected financial statements for such Applicable Period, (b) the Applicable Margin shall be determined as if the Pricing Level for such higher Applicable Margin were applicable for such Applicable Period, and (c) the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days of demand thereof by the Agent pay to the Agent the accrued additional amount owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) From and after the time that Agent first receives written notice from REIT or Borrower that REIT has first obtained an Investment Grade Rating and that REIT elects to use such Investment Grade Rating as the basis for the Applicable Margin, the Applicable Margin shall mean, as of any date of determination, a percentage per annum determined by reference to the Credit Rating Level as set forth below (provided that any accrued interest payable at the Applicable Margin determined by reference to the ratio of Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated Total Asset Value shall be payable as provided in §2.6):

Pricing Level	Credit Rating Level	LIBOR Rate Loans			Base Rate Loans
I	Credit Rating Level 1		0.95	%		0.00	%

III	Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		1.075	%		0.075	%
IV	Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		1.125	%		0.125	%
V	Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		1.35	%		0.35	%
VI	Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		1.70	%		0.70	%

At such time as this subparagraph (b) is applicable, the Applicable Margin for each Base Rate Loan shall be determined by reference to the Credit Rating Level in effect from time to time, and the Applicable Margin for any Interest Period for all LIBOR Rate Loans comprising part of the same borrowing shall be determined by reference to the Credit Rating Level in effect on the first day of such Interest Period; provided, however that no change in the Applicable Margin resulting from the application of the Credit Rating Levels or a change in the Credit Rating Level shall be effective until three Business Days after the date on which the Agent receives written notice of the application of the Credit Rating Levels or a change in such Credit Rating Level. From and after the first time that the Applicable Margin is based on REIT’s Investment Grade Rating, the Applicable Margin shall no longer be calculated by reference to the ratio of Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated Total Asset Value.

A credit rating of BBB- from S&P is equivalent to a credit rating of Baa3 from Xxxxx’x and vice versa. A credit rating of BBB from S&P is equivalent to a credit rating of Baa2 from Xxxxx’x and vice versa. A credit rating of BBB+ from S&P is equivalent to a credit rating of Baa1 by Xxxxx’x and vice versa. It is the intention of the parties that if REIT shall only obtain a credit rating from one of the Rating Agencies without seeking a credit rating from the other of the Rating Agencies, the Borrower shall be entitled to the benefit of the Credit Rating Level for such credit rating. If REIT shall have obtained a credit rating from both of the Rating Agencies, the higher of the two ratings shall control, provided that the lower rating is only one level below that of the higher rating. If the lower rating is more than one level below that of the higher credit rating, the operative rating would be deemed to be one rating level lower than the higher of the two ratings. In the event that REIT shall have obtained a credit rating from both of the Rating Agencies and shall thereafter lose such rating (whether as a result of a withdrawal, suspension, election to not obtain a rating, or otherwise) from one of the Rating Agencies, the operative rating would be deemed to be one rating level lower than the remaining rating. In the event that REIT shall have obtained a credit rating from both of the Rating Agencies and shall thereafter lose such rating (whether as a result of withdrawal, suspension, election to not obtain a rating, or otherwise) from both of the Rating Agencies, REIT shall be deemed for the purposes hereof not to have a credit rating. If at any time either of the Rating Agencies shall no longer perform the functions of a securities rating agency, then the Borrower and the Agent shall promptly negotiate in good faith to agree upon a substitute rating agency or agencies (and to correlate the system of ratings of each substitute rating agency with that of the rating agency being replaced), and pending such amendment, the Credit Rating of the other of the Rating Agencies, if one has been provided, shall continue to apply.

Credit Rating Level. One of the following six pricing levels, as applicable, and provided, further, that, from and after the time that Agent receives written notice that REIT has first obtained an Investment Grade Rating and elected to use such Investment Grade Rating as the basis for the Applicable Margin, during any period that REIT has no Credit Rating Level, Credit Rating Level 6 shall be the applicable Credit Rating Level:

“Credit Rating Level 1” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is greater than or equal to A by S&P or A2 by Xxxxx’x;

“Credit Rating Level 2” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is greater than or equal to A- by S&P or A3 by Xxxxx’x and Credit Rating Xxxxx 0 is not applicable;

“Credit Rating Level 3” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is greater than or equal to BBB+ by S&P or Baa1 by Xxxxx’x and Credit Rating Levels 1 and 2 are not applicable; and

“Credit Rating Level 4” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is greater than or equal to BBB by S&P or Baa2 by Xxxxx’x and Credit Rating Levels 1, 2 and 3 are not applicable;

“Credit Rating Level 5” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is greater than or equal to BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Xxxxx’x and Credit Rating Levels 1, 2, 3 and 4 are not applicable;

Any determination by the Agent that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender under any one or more of clauses (a) through (d) above shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, and such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender (subject to §2.13(g)) upon delivery of written notice of such determination to the Borrower and each Lender.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agrees to lend to the Borrower, and the Borrower may borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the Closing Date and the Revolving Credit Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Agent given in accordance with §2.7(a), such sums as are requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to the lesser of (i) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and (ii) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the sum of (A) the Unencumbered Pool Availability minus (B) the sum of (1) the amount of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans and Swing Loans, (2) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities and (3) the aggregate amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness; provided, that, in all events no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested), Term Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities plus the aggregate amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness shall not at any time cause a violation of the covenant set forth in §9.1. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. Each request for a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions required of the Xxxxxxxx xxx xxxxx xx §00 and §11 have been satisfied on the date of such request. The Agent may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless it receives prior written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. No Revolving Credit Lender shall have any obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower or participate in Letter of Credit Liabilities in the maximum aggregate principal outstanding balance of more than the lesser of the amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the principal face amount of its Revolving Credit Note.

(b) The Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (collectively, the “Revolving Credit Notes”), dated of even date with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in §18.3) and completed with appropriate insertions. One Revolving Credit Note shall be payable to the order of each Revolving Credit Lender in the principal amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment or, if less, the outstanding amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender, plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth below. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Agent to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loan or the time of receipt of any payment of principal thereof, an appropriate notation on the Agent’s Record reflecting the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans set forth on the Agent’s Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to each Revolving Credit Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on the Agent’s Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Revolving Credit Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Revolving Credit Note when due. By delivery of this Agreement and any Revolving Credit Note, there shall not be deemed to have occurred, and there has not otherwise occurred, any payment, satisfaction or novation of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Original Credit Agreement or the “Revolving Credit Notes” described in the Original Credit Agreement, which Indebtedness is instead allocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders as of the date hereof in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages, and is evidenced by this Agreement and any Revolving Credit Notes, and the Revolving Credit Lenders shall as of the date hereof make such adjustments to the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of such Revolving Credit Lenders so that such outstanding Revolving Credit Loans are consistent with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages. Any and all Revolving Credit Notes or Swing Loan Notes issued on the Closing Date in connection with this Agreement to Lenders holding Revolving Credit Notes or Swing Loan Notes issued under the Original Credit Agreement replace and are in lieu of such Revolving Credit Notes or Swing Loan Notes issued under the Original Credit Agreement.

§2.2 Commitment to Lend Term Loan.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Term Loan Lenders severally agrees to lend to the Borrower, and the Borrower may borrow from time to time up to a maximum of four (4) times during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date (the “Term Loan Commitment Period”), upon notice by the Borrower to the Agent given in accordance with §2.7(b), such sums as are requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to the lesser of (i) such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment and (ii) such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment Percentage of the sum of (A) the Unencumbered Pool Availability minus (B) the sum of (1) the amount of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans and Swing Loans, (2) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities and (3) the aggregate amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness; provided, that, in all events no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested), Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities plus the aggregate amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness shall not at any time cause a violation of the covenant set forth in §9.1. Except for any additional Term Loans made as a result of any increase in the Total Term Loan Commitment pursuant to §2.11, Borrower shall not have the right to draw down any Term Loans after the Term Loan Commitment Period has expired. In addition, any additional Term Loans made as a result of any increase in the Total Term Loan Commitments pursuant to §2.11 shall be made on the applicable Commitment Increase Date and each Term Loan Lender which elects to increase its or acquire a Term Loan Commitment pursuant to §2.11 severally and not jointly agrees to make a Term Loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to (a) with respect to any existing Term Loan Lender, the amount by which such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment increases on the applicable Commitment Increase Date and (b) with respect to any new Term Loan Lender, the amount of such new Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. Each request for a Term Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions required of the Xxxxxxxx xxx xxxxx xx §00 and §11 have been satisfied on the date of such request. The Agent may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless it receives prior written notice from a Term Loan Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. No Term Loan Lender shall have any obligation to make Term Loans to the Borrower in the maximum aggregate principal outstanding balance of more than the lesser of the amount equal to its Term Loan Commitment Percentage of the Term Loan Commitments and the principal face amount of its Term Loan Note.

(b) The Term Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan Commitment Percentage and be evidenced by the Term Loan Notes. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes Agent to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Term Loan or the time of receipt of any payment of principal thereof, an appropriate notation on Agent’s Record reflecting the making of such Term Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Term Loans set forth on Agent’s Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to each Term Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on Agent’s Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Term Loan Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Term Loan Note when due.

§2.3 Unused Fee; Facility Fee.

(a) Revolving Credit Loan Unused and Facility Fee.

(i) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender for such period of time as such Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender) in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages a facility unused fee calculated at the rate per annum as set forth below on the average daily amount by which the Total Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans, Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swing Loans, during each calendar quarter or portion thereof commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The facility unused fee shall be calculated for each day based on the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (a) the average daily amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (other than Revolving Credit Loans made by a Defaulting Lender), Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swing Loans during such quarter to (b) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment (other than Revolving Credit Commitments made by a Defaulting Lender), and if such ratio is less than fifty percent (50%), the facility unused fee shall be payable at the rate of 0.25%, and if such ratio is equal to or greater than fifty percent (50%), the facility unused fee shall be payable at the rate of 0.15%. The facility unused fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof, and on any earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reduced or shall terminate as provided in §2.4, with a final payment on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(ii) From and after the date that Agent receives written notice that REIT has first obtained an Investment Grade Rating and that Borrower or REIT has elected to use such Investment Grade Rating as the basis for the Applicable Margin, the unused fee shall no longer accrue (but any accrued unused fee shall be payable as provided in §2.3(a)(i)), and from and thereafter, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) calculated at the rate per annum set forth below based upon the applicable Credit Rating Level on the Total Revolving Credit Commitment:

Credit Rating Level	Facility Fee Rate
Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		0.12	%
Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		0.15	%
Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		0.175	%
Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		0.225	%
Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		0.30	%
Credit Rating Xxxxx 0		0.35	%

The Facility Fee shall be calculated for each day and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first (1st) day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof, and on any earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reduced or shall terminate as provided in §2.4, with a final payment on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The Facility Fee shall be determined by reference to the Credit Rating Level in effect from time to time; provided, however, that no change in the Facility Fee rate resulting from a change in the Credit Rating Level shall be effective until three (3) Business Days after the date on which the Agent receives written notice of a change.

(b) Term Loan Unused Fee. During the Term Loan Commitment Period, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Term Loan Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender for such period of time as such Term Loan Lender is a Defaulting Lender) in accordance with their respective Term Loan Commitment Percentages a term loan facility unused fee calculated for each day at the rate of 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount by which the Total Term Loan Commitment exceeds the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans. The term loan facility unused fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof.

§2.4 Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent to (a) reduce by $5,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof (provided that in no event shall the Total Revolving Credit Commitment be reduced in such manner to an amount less than $100,000,000.00) or (b) terminate entirely the Revolving Credit Commitments, whereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be, terminated, any such termination or reduction to be without penalty except as otherwise set forth in §4.7; provided, however, that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of Outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, the Outstanding Swing Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders as so terminated or reduced. Promptly after receiving any notice from the Borrower delivered pursuant to this §2.4, the Agent will notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of the substance thereof. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall also result in a proportionate reduction (rounded to the next lowest integral multiple of $100,000.00) in the maximum amount of Letters of Credit and the Swing Loan Commitment shall automatically decrease by an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the applicable reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Upon the effective date of any such reduction or termination, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders the full amount of any facility fee under §2.3 then accrued on the amount of the reduction. No reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments may be reinstated.

§2.5 Swing Loan Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Swing Loan Lender agrees to lend to the Borrower (the “Swing Loans”), and the Borrower may borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the Closing Date and the date which is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Swing Loan Lender given in accordance with this §2.5, such sums as are requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not exceeding the Swing Loan Commitment; provided that in all events (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) plus Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (A) the Total Revolving Loan Commitment and (B) the Unencumbered Pool Availability minus the sum of (i) the amount of all outstanding Term Loans and (ii) the aggregate amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness, or cause a violation of the covenant set forth in §9.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this §2.5, the Swing Loan Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swing Loan at a time when any other Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Swing Loan Lender is satisfied that the participation therein will otherwise be fully allocated to the Revolving Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders consistent with §2.13(c) and the Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein, except to the extent the Swing Loan Lender has entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender that are satisfactory to the Swing Loan Lender in its good faith determination to eliminate the Swing Loan Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to any such Defaulting Lender, including the delivery of cash collateral. Swing Loans shall constitute “Revolving Credit Loans” for all purposes hereunder. The funding of a Swing Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions set forth in §§10 and 11 have been satisfied on the date of such funding. The Swing Loan Lender may assume that the conditions in §§10 and 11 have been satisfied unless the Swing Loan Lender has received written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. Each Swing Loan shall be due and payable within five (5) Business Days of the date such Swing Loan was provided and the Borrower hereby agrees (to the extent not repaid as contemplated by §2.5(d)) to repay each Swing Loan on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days from the date such Swing Loan was provided. A Swing Loan may not be refinanced with another Swing Loan.

(b) The Swing Loans shall be evidenced by a separate promissory note of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto (the “Swing Loan Note”), dated the date of this Agreement and completed with appropriate insertions. The Swing Loan Note shall be payable to the order of the Swing Loan Lender in the principal face amount equal to the Swing Loan Commitment and shall be payable as set forth below. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Swing Loan Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Swing Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal thereof, an appropriate notation on the Swing Loan Lender’s Record reflecting the making of such Swing Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Swing Loans set forth on the Swing Loan Lender’s Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to the Swing Loan Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on the Swing Loan Lender’s Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Swing Loan Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Swing Loan Note when due.

(c) The Borrower shall request a Swing Loan by delivering to the Swing Loan Lender a Loan Request executed by an Authorized Officer no later than 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) on the requested Drawdown Date specifying the amount of the requested Swing Loan (which shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000.00) and providing the wire instructions for the delivery of the Swing Loan proceeds. The Loan Request shall also contain the statements and certifications required by §2.7(a) and (b). Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept such Swing Loan on the Drawdown Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The proceeds of the Swing Loan will be disbursed by wire by the Swing Loan Lender to the Borrower no later than 1:00 p.m. (Cleveland time).

(d) The Swing Loan Lender shall, within five (5) Business Days after the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing Loan, request each Revolving Credit Lender to make a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.1 in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of the Swing Loan outstanding on the date such notice is given. In the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent in writing otherwise on or before noon (Cleveland Time) on the Business Day of the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing Loan, the Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders that such Revolving Credit Loan shall be a LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month, provided that the making of such LIBOR Rate Loan will not be in contravention of any other provision of this Agreement, or if the making of a LIBOR Rate Loan would be in contravention of this Agreement, then such notice shall indicate that such loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Swing Loan Lender to so act on its behalf, and agrees that any amount advanced to the Agent for the benefit of the Swing Loan Lender pursuant to this §2.5(d) shall be considered a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.1. Unless any of the events described in §12.1(g), 12.1(h) or 12.1(i) shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of §2.5(e) shall apply), each Revolving Credit Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan available to the Swing Loan Lender for the account of the Swing Loan Lender at the Agent’s Head Office prior to 12:00 noon (Cleveland time) in funds immediately available no later than one (1) Business Day after the date such request was made by the Swing Loan Lender just as if the Lenders were funding directly to the Borrower, so that thereafter such Obligations shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loan shall be immediately applied to repay the Swing Loans.

(e) If for any reason a Swing Loan cannot be refinanced by a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.5(d), each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.5(d) was to have been made, purchase an undivided participation interest in the Swing Loan in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Swing Loan. Each Revolving Credit Lender will immediately transfer to the Swing Loan Lender in immediately available funds the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swing Loan Lender will deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a Swing Loan participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

(f) Whenever at any time after the Swing Loan Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s participation interest in a Swing Loan, the Swing Loan Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swing Loan Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its participation interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the case of interest payments to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Loan Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Swing Loan Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Loan Lender to it.

(g) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to fund a Revolving Credit Loan as provided in §2.5(d) or to purchase participation interests pursuant to §2.5(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (a) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swing Loan Lender, the Borrower or anyone else for any reason whatsoever; (b) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of REIT or any of its Subsidiaries; (d) any breach of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by the Borrower or any Guarantor or any Lender; or (e) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. Any portions of a Swing Loan not so purchased or converted may be treated by the Agent and the Swing Loan Lender as against such Revolving Credit Lender as a Revolving Credit Loan which was not funded by the non purchasing Revolving Credit Lender, thereby making such Revolving Credit Lender a Defaulting Lender. Each Swing Loan, once so sold or converted, shall cease to be a Swing Loan for the purposes of this Agreement, but shall be a Revolving Credit Loan made by each Revolving Credit Lender under its Revolving Credit Commitment.

§2.6 Interest on Loans.

(a) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the date on which such Base Rate Loan is repaid or converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan at the rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Each LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of each Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the sum of LIBOR determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(d) Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted to Loans of the other Type as provided in §4.1.

§2.7 Requests for Loans.

(a) Requests for Revolving Credit Loans. Except with respect to the initial Revolving Credit Loan on the Closing Date, the Borrower shall give to the Agent written notice executed by an Authorized Officer in the form of Exhibit E hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing in the form of Exhibit E hereto) of each Revolving Credit Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) by 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Base Rate Loans and two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans. Each such notice shall specify with respect to the requested Revolving Credit Loan the proposed principal amount of such Revolving Credit Loan, the Type of Revolving Credit Loan, the initial Interest Period (if applicable) for such Revolving Credit Loan and the Drawdown Date. Each such notice shall also contain (a) a general statement as to the purpose for which such advance shall be used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of §2.9) and (b) a certification by the chief executive officer, president or chief financial officer of the Borrower that the Borrower and Guarantors are and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Agent shall notify each of the Revolving Credit Lenders thereof. Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Revolving Credit Loan requested from the Revolving Credit Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Nothing herein shall prevent the Borrower from seeking recourse against any Revolving Loan Lender that fails to advance its proportionate share of a requested Revolving Credit Loan as required by this Agreement. Each Loan Request shall be (a) for a Base Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 in excess thereof; or (b) for a LIBOR Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof; provided, however, that there shall be no more than six (6) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.

(b) Requests for Term Loans during Term Loan Commitment Period. For each Term Loan which Borrower requests during the Term Loan Commitment Period in accordance with §2.2, except with respect to the initial Term Loan on the Closing Date, if any, the Borrower shall give to the Agent written notice executed by an Authorized Officer in the form of Exhibit E-1 hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing in the form of Exhibit E-1 hereto) by 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Base Rate Loans and two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans (a “Term Loan Request”). Each such notice shall specify with respect to the requested Term Loan the proposed principal amount of such Term Loan, the Type of Term Loan, the initial Interest Period (if applicable) for such Term Loan and the Drawdown Date. Each such notice shall also contain (a) a general statement as to the purpose for which such Term Loan shall be used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of §2.9) and (b) a certification by the chief executive officer, president or chief financial officer of the Borrower that the Borrower and Guarantors are and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the making of such Term Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Agent shall notify each of the Term Loan Lenders thereof. Each such Term Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Term Loan requested from the Term Loan Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Nothing herein shall prevent the Borrower from seeking recourse against any Term Loan Lender that fails to advance its proportionate share of a requested Term Loan as required by this Agreement. Each Term Loan Request shall be (a) for a Base Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 in excess thereof; or (b) for a LIBOR Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof; provided, however, that there shall be no more than six (6) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.

§2.8 Funds for Loans.

(a) Not later than 1:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans, each of the Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, will make available to the Agent, at the Agent’s Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans which may be disbursed pursuant to §2.1 or §2.2. Upon receipt from each such Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §10 and §11 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans made available to the Agent by the Lenders, as applicable, by crediting such amount to the account of the Borrower maintained at the Agent’s Head Office. The failure or refusal of any Revolving Credit Lender or Term Loan Lender to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Loans shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender or Term Loan Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of such other Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any requested Loans, including any additional Revolving Credit Loans that may be requested subject to the terms and conditions hereof to provide funds to replace those not advanced by the Lender so failing or refusing.

(b) Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Drawdown Date that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of a proposed Loan, the Agent may in its discretion assume that such Lender has made such Loan available to the Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Agent may, if it chooses, in reliance upon such assumption make such Loan available to the Borrower, and such Lender shall be liable to the Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

§2.9 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans solely for (a) payment of closing costs in connection with this Agreement, (b) repayment of Indebtedness, (c) acquisitions of fee simple ownership of Real Estate or Real Estate subject to a Ground Lease, and (d) general corporate and working capital purposes.

§2.10 Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, at any time and from time to time from the Closing Date through the day that is ninety (90) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Issuing Lender shall issue such Letters of Credit as the Borrower may request upon the delivery of a written request in the form of Exhibit F hereto (a “Letter of Credit Request”) to the Issuing Lender, provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) upon issuance of such Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, (iii) in no event shall the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to any requested Letters of Credit) exceed the lesser of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment and the Unencumbered Pool Availability minus the sum of (i) the amount of all outstanding Term Loans and (ii) the aggregate amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness, or cause a violation of the covenants set forth in §9.1, (iv) the conditions set forth in §§10 and 11 shall have been satisfied, and (v) in no event shall any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit be available for reinstatement or a subsequent drawing under such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this §2.10, the Issuing Lender shall not be obligated to issue, amend, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit at a time when any other Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Lender is satisfied that the participation therein will otherwise be fully allocated to the Revolving Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders consistent with §2.13(c) and the Defaulting Lender shall have no participation therein, except to the extent the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender which are satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its good faith determination to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to any such Defaulting Lender, including the delivery of cash collateral. The Issuing Lender may assume that the conditions in §§10 and 11 have been satisfied unless it receives written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. Each Letter of Credit Request shall be executed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Person’s authority to request a Letter of Credit on behalf of the Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of any signature appearing on a Letter of Credit Request. The Borrower assumes all risks with respect to the use of the Letters of Credit. Unless the Issuing Lender and the Required Revolving Credit Lenders otherwise consent, the term of any Letter of Credit shall not exceed a period of time commencing on the issuance of the Letter of Credit and ending one year after the date of issuance thereof, subject to extension pursuant to an “evergreen” clause acceptable to the Agent and the Issuing Lender (but in any event the term shall not extend beyond five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date). The amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit shall reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amount available to be drawn under the Total Revolving Credit Commitment as a Revolving Credit Loan.

(b) Each Letter of Credit Request shall be submitted to the Issuing Lender at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Issuing Lender may approve) prior to the date upon which the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued. Each such Letter of Credit Request shall contain (i) a statement as to the purpose for which such Letter of Credit shall be used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and (ii) a certification by the chief financial officer of the Borrower that the Borrower and Guarantors are and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall further deliver to the Issuing Lender such additional applications (which application as of the date hereof is in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto) and documents as the Issuing Lender may require, in conformity with the then standard practices of its letter of credit department, in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided that in the event of any conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(c) The Issuing Lender shall, subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, issue the Letter of Credit on or before five (5) Business Days following receipt of the documents last due pursuant to §2.10(b). Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion.

(d) Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation therein from the Issuing Lender in an amount equal to its respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Letter of Credit. No Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to participate in a Letter of Credit shall be affected by any other Revolving Credit Lender’s failure to perform as required herein with respect to such Letter of Credit or any other Letter of Credit.

(e) Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender (i) for its own account, a Letter of Credit fronting fee calculated at the rate equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit (which fee shall not be less than $1,500 in any event) and an administrative charge of $250, and (ii) for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders (including the Issuing Lender) in accordance with their respective percentage shares of participation in such Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit fee calculated at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans on the face amount of such Letter of Credit. Such fees shall be payable in quarterly installments in arrears with respect to each Letter of Credit on the first day of each calendar quarter following the date of issuance and continuing on each quarter or portion thereof thereafter, as applicable, or on any earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate and on the expiration or return of any Letter of Credit. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account within five (5) days of demand of the Issuing Lender the standard issuance, documentation and service charges for Letters of Credit issued from time to time by the Issuing Lender.

(f) In the event that any amount is drawn under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender by having such amount drawn treated as an outstanding Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan under this Agreement (the Borrower being deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan on such date in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and such amount drawn shall be treated as an outstanding Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan under this Agreement) and the Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender by telex, telecopy, telegram, telephone (confirmed in writing) or other similar means of transmission, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Agent, for the Issuing Lender’s own account, an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit (to the extent of the amount drawn). If and to the extent any Revolving Credit Lender shall not make such amount available on the Business Day on which such draw is funded, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay such amount to the Agent forthwith on demand, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date on which such draw was funded until the date on which such amount is paid to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate until three (3) days after the date on which the Agent gives notice of such draw and at the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus one percent (1%) for each day thereafter. Further, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Credit Loans, amounts due with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit and any other amounts due to it hereunder to the Agent to fund the amount of any drawn Letter of Credit which such Revolving Credit Lender was required to fund pursuant to this §2.10(f) until such amount has been funded (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). In the event of any such failure or refusal, the Revolving Credit Lenders not so failing or refusing shall be entitled to a priority secured position for such amounts as provided in §12.5. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make funds available to the Agent in such amount shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation hereunder to make funds available to the Agent pursuant to this §2.10(f).

(g) If after the issuance of a Letter of Credit pursuant to §2.10(c) by the Issuing Lender, but prior to the funding of any portion thereof by a Revolving Credit Lender, for any reason a drawing under a Letter of Credit cannot be refinanced as a Revolving Credit Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.10(f) was to have been made, purchase an undivided participation interest in the Letter of Credit in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Revolving Credit Lender will immediately transfer to the Issuing Lender in immediately available funds the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Issuing Lender will deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a Letter of Credit participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

(h) Whenever at any time after the Issuing Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender any such Revolving Credit Lender’s payment of funds under a Letter of Credit and thereafter the Issuing Lender receives any payment on account thereof, then the Issuing Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its participation interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the case of interest payments to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Issuing Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Issuing Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

(i) The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal or extension to or of any Letter of Credit shall be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.

(j) The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. Neither the Agent, the Issuing Lender nor any Lender will be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with the conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required by or from a beneficiary in order to make a disbursement under a Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Agent or any Lender. None of the foregoing will affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Lenders hereunder. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing, any act taken or omitted to be taken by the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the other Lenders in good faith will be binding on the Borrower and will not put the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the other Lenders under any resulting liability to the Borrower; provided nothing contained herein shall relieve the Issuing Lender for liability to the Borrower arising as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

§2.11 Increase in Total Commitment.

(a) Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this §2.11, the Borrower shall have the option at any time and from time to time before the applicable Maturity Date to request one or more increases in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment such that the Total Revolving Credit Commitment does not exceed $450,000,000.00 and/or the Total Term Loan Commitment such that the Total Term Loan Commitment does not exceed $750,000,000.00, by giving written notice to the Agent (each, an “Increase Notice”; and the amount of such requested increase is a “Commitment Increase”); provided that any such individual increase must be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000.00 and increments of $10,000,000.00 in excess thereof unless otherwise approved by the Agent in its sole discretion. Upon receipt of any Increase Notice, the Agent shall consult with the Arranger and shall notify the Borrower of the amount of the facility fees to be paid to any Lenders who increase their respective Commitment in connection with such increase in the Total Commitment (which shall be in addition to the fees to be paid to the Arranger pursuant to the Agreement Regarding Fees). If the Borrower agrees to pay the facility fees so determined, the Agent shall send a notice to all Lenders (each, an “Additional Commitment Request Notice”) informing them of the Borrower’s request to increase the Total Commitment and of the facility fees to be paid with respect thereto. Each Lender who desires to increase its Commitment upon such terms shall provide the Agent with a written commitment letter specifying the amount of such increase which it is willing to provide prior to such deadline as may be specified in the Additional Commitment Request Notice. If the requested increase is oversubscribed then the Agent and the Arranger shall allocate the Commitment Increase among the Lenders who provide such commitment letters on such basis as the Agent and the Arranger shall determine in their sole discretion. In addition, the Agent, Arranger or the Borrower may, but shall not be obligated to, invite one or more banks or lending institutions (which banks or lending institutions shall be reasonably acceptable to the Agent, the Arranger and the Borrower) to become a Lender and provide an additional Commitment. The Agent shall provide all Lenders with a notice setting forth the amount, if any, of the additional Commitment to be provided by each Lender and the revised Commitment Percentages which shall be applicable after the effective date of the Commitment Increase specified therein (each, a “Commitment Increase Date”). In no event shall any Lender be obligated to increase its Commitment.

(b) On any Commitment Increase Date on which the Total Revolving Credit Commitment is increased, the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders such that after the applicable Commitment Increase Date the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans owed to each Revolving Credit Lender shall be equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage (as in effect after the applicable Commitment Increase Date) of the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans. The participation interests of the Revolving Credit Lenders in Swing Loans and Letters of Credit shall be similarly adjusted. On any Commitment Increase Date on which the Total Revolving Credit Commitment is increased, each of those Revolving Credit Lenders whose Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage is increasing shall advance the funds to the Agent and the funds so advanced shall be distributed among the Revolving Credit Lenders whose Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage is decreasing as necessary to accomplish the required reallocation of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. The funds so advanced shall be Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans until converted to Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans which are allocated among all Revolving Credit Lenders based on their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages.

(c) Upon the effective date of each increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.11, (i) the Agent may unilaterally revise Schedule 1.1 to reflect the name and address, Commitment and Commitment Percentage of each Lender following such increase and the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent new Revolving Credit Notes or Term Loan Notes, as applicable, for each Lender whose Commitment has changed so that the principal amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note or Term Loan Note shall equal its Commitment, (ii) the Swing Loan Commitment shall automatically increase to the lesser of (A) an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the new Total Revolving Credit Commitment and (B) the Commitment of the Swing Loan Lender, and the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent a new Swing Loan Note for the Swing Loan Lender so that the principal amount of Swing Loan Note shall equal the Swing Loan Commitment, and (iii) the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall automatically increase to the lesser of (A) an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the new Total Revolving Credit Commitment and (B) the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Issuing Lender. The Agent shall deliver such replacement Revolving Credit Note, Term Loan Note and/or Swing Loan Note, as applicable, to the respective Lenders in exchange for the Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and/or Swing Loan Note replaced thereby which shall be surrendered by such Lenders. Such new Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and/or Swing Loan Note, as applicable, shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and/or Swing Loan Note, as applicable, and that they do not constitute a novation, shall be dated as of the applicable Commitment Increase Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the replaced Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and/or Swing Loan Note, as applicable. In connection with the issuance of any new Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Note or a new Swing Loan Note, as applicable, pursuant to this §2.11(c), the Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel, addressed to the Lenders and the Agent, relating to the due authorization, execution and delivery of such new Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and/or Swing Loan Note, as applicable, and the enforceability thereof, in form and substance substantially similar to the opinion delivered in connection with the first disbursement under this Agreement. The surrendered Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and/or Swing Loan Note, as applicable, shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligation of the Agent and the Lenders to increase the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.11 shall be conditioned upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent which must be satisfied prior to the effectiveness of any increase of the Total Commitment:

(i) Payment of Activation Fee. The Borrower shall pay (A) to the Agent and the Arranger those fees described in and contemplated by the Agreement Regarding Fees with respect to the applicable Commitment Increase, and (B) to the Arranger such facility fees as the Lenders who are providing an additional Commitment, or increasing their respective Commitment, may require to increase the aggregate Commitment, which fees shall, when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under any circumstances. The Arranger shall pay to the Lenders acquiring the increased Commitment certain fees pursuant to their separate agreement; and

(ii) No Default. On the date any such increase becomes effective, both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased, there shall exist no Default or Event of Default; and

(iii) Representations True. The representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the Guarantors in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by or on behalf of the Borrower or the Guarantors in connection therewith or after the date thereof shall have been true and correct in all material respects when made and shall also be true and correct in all material respects on the date of such Increase Notice and on the date the Total Commitment is increased, both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased; and

(iv) Additional Documents and Expenses. The Borrower and the Guarantors shall execute and deliver to the Agent and the Lenders such additional documents, instruments, certifications and opinions as the Agent may reasonably require in its sole and absolute discretion (including, without limitation, in the case of the Borrower, a Compliance Certificate, demonstrating compliance with all covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Documents after giving effect to the increase).

§2.12 Extension of Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right and option to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date a total of two (2) times for a period of one (1) year each time upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent, which must be satisfied prior to the effectiveness of any extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date:

(i) Extension Request. The Borrower shall deliver written notice of such request (the “Extension Request”) to the Agent not earlier than the date which is one hundred fifty (150) days and not later than the date which is ninety (90) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension).

(ii) Payment of Extension Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the pro rata accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments an extension fee in an amount equal to twenty-five (25) basis points on the Total Revolving Commitment in effect on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension), which fee shall, when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under any circumstances.

(iii) No Default. On the date of such extension there shall exist no Default or Event of Default.

(iv) Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the Guarantors in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by or on behalf of the Borrower and the Guarantors in connection therewith or after the date thereof shall have been true and correct in all material respects when made and shall also be true and correct in all material respects on the date of such extension.

For purposes of clarity, if the Borrower exercises its first right and option as provided above to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date pursuant to this §2.12 (the “First Extension Option”), the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall be extended to July 24, 2017, and if the Borrower subsequently exercises its second right and option as provided above to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date pursuant to this §2.12 (the “Second Extension Option”), then the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall be extended to July 24, 2018. Borrower may only exercise the Second Extension Option if it has exercised the First Extension Option in accordance with this §2.12. Any extension option granted pursuant to this §2.12 shall become effective on the day that all the conditions in this §2.12 with respect to such extension are satisfied, provided that such conditions must be satisfied within the time period provided in each such condition, and, in any event, prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension).

§2.13 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) If for any reason any Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Agent or the Borrower under this Agreement or applicable law, such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in respect of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of the Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of the Majority Lenders, Required Lenders, Required Revolving Credit Lenders or all of the Lenders, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal. If a Lender is a Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies which the Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or otherwise, the Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the Federal Funds Effective Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. Any amounts received by the Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender’s Loans shall be applied as set forth in §2.13(d).

(b) Any Non-Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire all or a portion of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitments. Any Lender desiring to exercise such right shall give written notice thereof to the Agent and the Borrower no sooner than two (2) Business Days and not later than five (5) Business Days after such Defaulting Lender became a Defaulting Lender. If more than one Lender exercises such right, each such Lender shall have the right to acquire an amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitments in proportion to the Commitments of the other Lenders exercising such right. If after such fifth Business Day, the Lenders have not elected to purchase all of the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists) or the Majority Lenders may, by giving written notice thereof to the Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitments to an eligible assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of §18.1 for the purchase price provided for below. No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an eligible assignee. Upon any such purchase or assignment, and any such demand with respect to which the conditions specified in §18.1 have been satisfied, the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Loans and its rights hereunder (but not its liability in respect thereof or under the Loan Documents or this Agreement to the extent the same relate to the period prior to the effective date of the purchase) shall terminate on the date of purchase, and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest to the purchaser or assignee thereof, including an appropriate Assignment and Acceptance Agreement. The purchase price for the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender shall be equal to the amount of the principal balance of the Loans outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon (but not on accrued and unpaid fees). Prior to payment of such purchase price to a Defaulting Lender, the Agent shall apply against such purchase price any amounts retained by the Agent pursuant to §2.13(d).

(c) During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to §2.10(g) or Swing Loans pursuant to §2.5(e) shall be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (computed without giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender); provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the time of such reallocation, the conditions set forth in §§10 and 11 are satisfied or waived in writing (and, unless the Borrower shall have notified the Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at the time), and (iii) the aggregate obligation of each Revolving Credit Lender that is a Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (A) the Revolving Credit Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the sum of (1) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of that Lender plus (2) such Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swing Loans. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(d) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to §13), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent (other than with respect to Letter of Credit Liabilities) hereunder; second, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender (with respect to Letter of Credit Liabilities) and/or the Swing Loan Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Agent or requested by the Issuing Lender or the Swing Loan Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit or Swing Loan; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans or participations under this Agreement and (y) be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit or Swing Loan; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Agent or the Lenders (including the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender) as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Agent or any Lender (including the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender) against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (ii) such Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in §§10 and 11, to the extent required by this Agreement, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans of, and funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis until such time as all Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans are held by the Revolving Credit Lenders and Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, pro rata in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages or Term Loan Commitment Percentages, as applicable, without regard to §2.13(c), prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans of, or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this §2.13(d) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto, and to the extent allocated to the repayment of principal of the Loan, shall not be considered outstanding principal under this Agreement.

(e) Within five (5) Business Days of demand by the Issuing Lender or the Swing Loan Lender from time to time, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender cash collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender (after giving effect to §§2.5(a), 2.10(a) and 2.13(c)) on terms satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and/or the Swing Loan Lender in its good faith determination (and such cash collateral shall be in Dollars). Any such cash collateral shall be deposited in the Collateral Account as collateral (solely for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and/or the Swing Loan Lender) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swing Loans. Moneys in the Collateral Account deposited pursuant to this §2.13(e) shall be applied by the Agent to reimburse the Issuing Lender and/or the Swing Loan Lender immediately for each Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of any funding obligation with respect to a Letter of Credit or Swing Loan which has not otherwise been reimbursed by the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender.

(f) (i) Each Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Facility Fee or unused fee pursuant to §2.3 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(ii) Each Revolving Credit Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive Letter of Credit fees pursuant to §2.10(e) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(iii) With respect to any facility unused fee, term loan facility unused fee, Facility Fee or Letter of Credit fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to §2.13(c), (y) pay to the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Issuing Lender’s or the Swing Loan Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender and (z) not be required to pay any remaining amount of any such fee.

(g) If the Borrower (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists) and the Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments (without giving effect to §2.13(c)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

§3. REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.

§3.1 Stated Maturity

The Borrower promises to pay on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date all of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and other Letter of Credit Liabilities Outstanding on such date, together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

The Borrower promises to pay on the Term Loan Maturity Date and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date all of the Term Loans Outstanding on such date, together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

§3.2 Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time (i) the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Swing Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities exceeds the lesser of (A) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or (B) the Unencumbered Pool Availability minus the principal amount of the Outstanding Term Loans and the aggregate principal amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness, or (ii) the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Term Loans, the Swing Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities exceeds the lesser of (A) Total Commitment or (B) the Unencumbered Pool Availability minus the aggregate principal amount of all other Unsecured Indebtedness, then the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of such occurrence pay the amount of such excess to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of clause (i)(A)) or all of the Lenders (in the case of clauses (i)(B) and (ii)), as applicable, for application to the Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans as provided in §3.4, together with any additional amounts payable pursuant to §4.7, and deposit in the Collateral Account and pledge to Agent cash in any additional amount necessary to secure the Outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities, except that the amount of any Swing Loans shall be paid solely to the Swing Loan Lender.

§3.3 Optional Prepayments.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to prepay the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans and Swing Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium; provided, that if any prepayment of the outstanding amount of any LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to this §3.3 is made on a date that is not the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, such prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of any amounts due pursuant to §4.7.

(b) The Borrower shall give the Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) at least three (3) days prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to this §3.3, in each case specifying the proposed date of prepayment of the Loans and the principal amount to be prepaid (provided that any such notice may be revoked or modified upon one (1) day’s prior notice to the Agent). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prior notice shall be required for the prepayment of any Swing Loan.

§3.4 Partial Prepayments. Each partial prepayment of the Loans under §3.3 shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 in excess thereof, shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest on the principal prepaid to the date of payment. Each partial payment under §3.2 and §3.3 shall be applied first to the principal of any Outstanding Swing Loans, then, in the absence of instruction by the Borrower, first to the principal of any Outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and then to the principal of any Outstanding Term Loans (and with respect to each category of Loans, first to the principal of Base Rate Loans, and then to the principal of LIBOR Rate Loans).

§3.5 Effect of Prepayments. Amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans prepaid under §§3.2 and 3.3 prior to the Maturity Date may be reborrowed as provided in §2. Any portion of the Term Loans that is prepaid may not be reborrowed.

§4. CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

§4.1 Conversion Options.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any of its outstanding Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans to a Revolving Credit Loan or Term Loan, respectively, of another Type and such Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans shall thereafter bear interest as a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan, as applicable; provided that (i) with respect to any such conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of such election, and such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) LIBOR Business Days’ prior written notice of such election and the Interest Period requested for such Loan, the principal amount of the Loan so converted shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof and, after giving effect to the making of such Loan, there shall be no more than six (6) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time; and (iii) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. All or any part of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans of any Type may be converted as provided herein, provided that no partial conversion shall result in a Base Rate Loan in a principal amount of less than $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 or a LIBOR Rate Loan in a principal amount of less than $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000.00. On the date on which such conversion is being made, each Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be. Each Conversion/Continuation Request relating to the conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.

(b) Any LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Borrower with the terms of §4.1; provided that no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default.

(c) In the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent of its election hereunder with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, such Loan shall be automatically continued at the end of the applicable Interest Period as a LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one month, provided that no circumstance exists which would preclude Borrower from obtaining a LIBOR Rate Loan, or if Borrower would be precluded from obtaining a LIBOR Rate Loan, it shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period.

§4.2 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to KeyBank, the Agent and the Arranger for their own account certain fees for services rendered or to be rendered in connection with the Loans as provided pursuant to that certain fee letter dated April 17, 2013 among the Borrower, KeyBank and Keybanc Capital Markets, Inc. (the “Agreement Regarding Fees”). All such fees shall be fully earned when paid and nonrefundable under any circumstances.

§4.3 Funds for Payments.

(a) All payments of principal, interest, facility fees, Letter of Credit fees, closing fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Agent, for the respective accounts of the Lenders and the Agent, as the case may be, at the Agent’s Head Office, not later than 2:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the day when due, in each case in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds. The Agent is hereby authorized to charge the accounts of the Borrower with KeyBank set forth on Schedule 4.3, on the dates when the amount thereof shall become due and payable, with the amounts of the principal of and interest on the Loans and all fees, charges, expenses and other amounts owing to the Agent and/or the Lenders (including the Swing Loan Lender) under the Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, all payments made to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and actually received by the Agent, shall be deemed received by the Lenders on the date actually received by the Agent.

(b) All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such obligation is imposed upon the Borrower to deduct or withhold with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (other than any deduction or withholding with respect to Excluded Taxes), the Borrower will pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders (including the Swing Loan Lender) or (as the case may be) the Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the Borrower. If any such Lender, to the extent it may lawfully do so, fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Agent may withhold from any payments to be made to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents such amounts as are required by the Code. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Agent or the Borrower (as to the Borrower, with respect to Excluded FATCA Taxes only) did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender due to such Lender’s failure to deliver such forms or documentation, such Lender shall indemnify the Agent and/or the Borrower (as to the Borrower, with respect to Excluded FATCA Taxes only) therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent or by the Borrower (as to the Borrower, with respect to Excluded FATCA Taxes only) under this §4.3, and costs and expenses (including all reasonable fees and disbursements of any law firm or other external counsel and the allocated cost of internal legal services and all disbursements of internal counsel) of the Agent and the Borrower (as to the Borrower, with respect to Excluded FATCA Taxes only). The obligation of the Lenders under this §4.3(b) shall survive the termination of the Commitments, repayment of all Obligations and all the resignation or replacement of the Agent. Without limitation of this §4.3(b), if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting and document provision requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by either, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower and/or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. The Borrower will deliver promptly to the Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

(c) Each Lender that is not a United States Person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower and Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or Agent) with such duly executed form(s) or statement(s) which may, from time to time, be prescribed by law and, which, pursuant to applicable provisions of (i) an income tax treaty between the United States and the country of residence of such Lender, (ii) the Code, or (iii) any applicable rules or regulations in effect under (i) or (ii) above, indicates the withholding status of such Lender and allows the Borrower and Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Each Lender that is a United States Person as defined under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall provide the Borrower and Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower and Agent), duly executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this §4.3(c) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. In the event that the Borrower shall have delivered the certificates or vouchers described above for any payments made by the Borrower and such Lender receives a refund of any taxes paid by the Borrower pursuant to §4.3(b) or §15, such Lender will pay to the Borrower the amount of such refund promptly upon receipt thereof; provided that if at any time thereafter such Lender is required to return such refund, the Borrower shall promptly repay to such Lender the amount of such refund.

(d) The obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit (and of the Lenders to make payments to the Issuing Lender with respect to Letters of Credit and to the Swing Loan Lender with respect to Swing Loans) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) any improper use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any improper acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit in connection therewith; (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or any right which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting) or the Lenders (other than the defense of payment to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any other person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any unrelated transaction; (iv) any draft, demand, certificate, statement or any other documents presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be insufficient, forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (v) any breach of any agreement between the Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates and any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit; (vi) any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which any Letter of Credit is issued, including any fraud by the beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit; (vii) payment by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a sight draft, demand, certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, provided that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of court of competent jurisdiction; (viii) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit; (ix) the legality, validity, form, regularity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit; (x) the failure of any payment by the Issuing Lender to conform to the terms of a Letter of Credit (if, in the Issuing Lender’s good faith judgment, such payment is determined to be appropriate); (xi) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (xii) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; and (xiii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, provided that such circumstance or happening under this clause (xiii) shall not have occurred as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

§4.4 Computations. All computations of interest on the Base Rate Loans to the extent applicable shall be based on a three hundred sixty-five (365) or three hundred sixty-six (366)-day year, as applicable, and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. All other computations of interest on the Loans and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension. The Outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities as reflected on the records of the Agent from time to time shall be considered prima facie evidence of such amount absent manifest error.

§4.5 Suspension of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Agent shall determine that adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period, or the Agent shall reasonably determine that LIBOR will not accurately and fairly reflect the cost of the Lenders making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders absent manifest error) to the Borrower and the Lenders. In such event (a) any Loan Request with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan and (b) each LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent determines that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the Lenders.

§4.6 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over a Lender or its LIBOR Lending Office shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Agent and the Borrower and thereupon (a) the commitment of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) the LIBOR Rate Loans then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, before giving such notice, the applicable Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation will void the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender or increase any costs payable by the Borrower hereunder.

§4.7 Additional Interest. If any LIBOR Rate Loan or any portion thereof is repaid or is converted to a Base Rate Loan for any reason on a date which is prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan, or if repayment of the Loans has been accelerated as provided in §12.1, or if the Borrower fails to draw down on the first day of the applicable Interest Period any amount as to which the Borrower has elected a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower will pay to the Agent upon demand for the account of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (or to the Swing Loan Lender with respect to a Swing Loan), in addition to any amounts of interest otherwise payable hereunder, the Breakage Costs. The Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following: (a) no Lender has any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of LIBOR as a basis for calculating the rate of interest on a LIBOR Rate Loan; (b) LIBOR is used merely as a reference in determining such rate; and (c) the Borrower has accepted LIBOR as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating such rate and any Breakage Costs. The Borrower further agrees to pay the Breakage Costs, if any, whether or not a Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

§4.8 Additional Costs, Etc. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any present or future applicable law, which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time (or from time to time) hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Agent by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall:

(a) subject any Lender or the Agent to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Lender’s Commitment, a Letter of Credit or the Loans (except for taxes covered by §4.3 and any Excluded Taxes payable by such Lender or the Agent), or

(b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for taxes covered by §4.3 and any Excluded Taxes payable by such Lender or the Agent) of payments to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

(c) impose or increase or render applicable any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law and which are not already reflected in any amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or commitments of an office of any Lender, or

(d) impose on any Lender or the Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Loans, such Lender’s Commitment, a Letter of Credit or any class of loans or commitments of which any of the Loans or such Lender’s Commitment forms a part; and the result of any of the foregoing is:

(i) to increase the cost to any Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans, the Letters of Credit or such Lender’s Commitment, or

(ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to any Lender or the Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s Commitment or any of the Loans or the Letters of Credit, or

(iii) to require any Lender or the Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Lender or the Agent from the Borrower hereunder,

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, within fifteen (15) days of demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Agent such additional amounts as such Lender or the Agent shall determine in good faith to be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum. Each Lender and the Agent in determining such amounts may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender or the Agent.

§4.9 Capital Adequacy. If after the date hereof any Lender determines that (a) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof, or (b) compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s commitment to make Loans or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such holding company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender may notify the Borrower thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is determined, upon presentation by such Lender of a statement of the amount setting forth the Lender’s calculation thereof. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender. For purposes of §4.8 and this §4.9, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, publications, orders, guidelines and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall be deemed to have been adopted and gone into effect after the date hereof regardless of when adopted, enacted or issued.

§4.10 Breakage Costs. The Borrower shall pay all Breakage Costs required to be paid by it pursuant to this Agreement and incurred from time to time by any Lender upon demand within fifteen (15) days from receipt of written notice from the Agent, or such earlier date as may be required by this Agreement.

§4.11 Default Interest. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and regardless of whether or not the Agent or the Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans, all Loans shall bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2.0%) above an amount equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time (the “Default Rate”), until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment), and the fee payable with respect to Letters of Credit shall be increased to a rate equal to two percent (2%) above the Letter of Credit fee that would otherwise be applicable to such time, or if any of such amounts shall exceed the maximum rate permitted by law, then at the maximum rate permitted by law.

§4.12 Certificate. A certificate setting forth any amounts payable pursuant to §4.7, §4.8, §4.9, §4.10 or §4.11 and a reasonably detailed explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Lender or the Agent to the Borrower, shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error, and shall be promptly provided to the Agent and the Borrower upon their written request.

§4.13 Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, all agreements between or among the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agent, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Lenders exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable to the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to the Lenders shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and to the payment of interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the Obligations (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This §4.13 shall control all agreements between or among the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agent.

§4.14 Certain Provisions Relating to Increased Costs and Non-Funding Lenders. If a Lender gives notice of the existence of the circumstances set forth in §4.8 or any Lender requests compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more of the provisions of §§4.3(b) (as a result of the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes on amounts paid to such Lender under this Agreement), 4.8, 4.9, or 15(b), then, upon request of the Borrower, such Lender, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to designate another of such Lender’s offices, branches or affiliates for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce such amounts payable or (ii) would not subject Lender to any unreimbursed costs or expenses and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to Lender; the Borrower agreeing to pay all reasonably incurred costs and expenses incurred by such Lender in connection with any such action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and if any Lender (a) has given notice of the existence of the circumstances set forth in §4.8 or has requested payment or compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more of the provisions of §§4.3(b) (as a result of the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes on amounts paid to such Lender under this Agreement), 4.8, 4.9 or 15(b) and following the request of the Borrower has been unable to take the steps described above to mitigate such amounts (each, an “Affected Lender”), or (b) has failed to make available to Agent its pro rata share of any Loan or participation in a Letter of Credit or Swing Loan and such failure has not been cured (a “Non-Funding Lender”), then, within thirty (30) days after such notice or request for payment or compensation or failure to fund, as applicable, the Borrower shall have the one-time right as to such Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to the Agent and the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice or failure to fund, as applicable, to elect to cause the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, to transfer its Commitments and assign its Loans. The Agent shall promptly notify the remaining Lenders that each of such Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire a portion of the Commitments and Loans, pro rata based upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable (or if any of such Lenders does not elect to purchase its pro rata share, then to such remaining Lenders in such proportion as approved by the Agent). In the event that the Lenders do not elect to acquire all of the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s Commitments and Loans, then the Agent shall endeavor to obtain a new Lender to acquire such remaining Commitment. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment of the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s interest in the Obligations and its rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase, and the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest. The purchase price for the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s Commitments and Loans shall equal any and all amounts outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, including principal, prepayment premium or fee, and all accrued and unpaid interest or fees.

§4.15 Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing §§4.3, 4.8 and 4.9 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies Borrower of the eligible circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the change in law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

§5. UNSECURED OBLIGATIONS; GUARANTY.

§5.1 Unsecured Obligations. The Lenders have agreed to make the Loans to the Borrower and issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower on an unsecured basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligations shall be guaranteed pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty.

§5.2 Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. In the event that the Borrower shall request that certain Real Estate of a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower be included as an Unencumbered Pool Asset, the Borrower shall as a condition thereto, in addition to the requirements of §7.20, cause each such Wholly Owned Subsidiary to execute and deliver to Agent a Joinder Agreement, and such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor hereunder and thereunder. In addition, in the event any Subsidiary of REIT shall constitute a Material Subsidiary, the Borrower shall cause such Subsidiary, as a condition to such Subsidiary’s becoming a guarantor or other obligor with respect to such other Unsecured Indebtedness described therein, cause each such Subsidiary to execute and deliver to Agent a Joinder Agreement, and such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder. Each such Subsidiary shall be specifically authorized, in accordance with its respective organizational documents, to be a Guarantor hereunder and thereunder and to execute the Contribution Agreement. The Borrower shall further cause all representations, covenants and agreements in the Loan Documents with respect to the Guarantors to be true and correct with respect to each such Subsidiary. In connection with the delivery of such Joinder Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent such organizational agreements, resolutions, consents, opinions and other documents and instruments as the Agent may reasonably require.

§5.3 Release of a Subsidiary Guarantor. The Borrower may request in writing that the Agent release, and upon receipt of such request the Agent shall release (subject to the terms hereof), a Subsidiary Guarantor from the Guaranty so long as: (a) no Default or Event of Default shall then be in existence or would occur as a result of such release or the removal of Real Estate referred to in clause (c) below; (b) the Agent shall have received such written request at least five (5) Business Days prior to the requested date of release together with an updated Compliance Certificate and Unencumbered Pool Certificate, each giving effect to such proposed release; and (c) Borrower shall deliver to Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent that (A) the Borrower has disposed of or simultaneously with such release will dispose of its entire interest in such Subsidiary Guarantor or that substantially all of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor have been or simultaneously with such release will be disposed of in compliance with the terms of this Agreement to a Person other than REIT or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and the net cash proceeds from such disposition are being distributed to the Borrower in connection with such disposition; or (B) if such Subsidiary Guarantor previously directly or indirectly owned an asset included in the calculation of Unencumbered Pool Asset Value, all such assets have been removed from the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Asset Value in accordance with the terms of the Agreement (and such Subsidiary Guarantor is not otherwise required by the terms of this Agreement to be a Guarantor); or (C) such Subsidiary Guarantor does not directly or indirectly own an asset included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Asset Value and will not, upon giving effect to such requested release, be a Material Subsidiary. Delivery by the Borrower to the Agent of any such request for a release shall constitute a representation by the Borrower that the matters set forth in the preceding sentence (both as of the date of the giving of such request and as of the date of the effectiveness of such request) are true and correct with respect to such request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing provisions shall not apply to REIT, which may only be released upon the written approval of Agent and all of the Lenders.

§6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders as follows.

§6.1 Corporate Authority, Etc.

(a) Incorporation; Good Standing. REIT is a Maryland corporation duly organized pursuant to articles of incorporation filed with the Maryland Secretary of State, and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Maryland.

Each Ground Lease with respect to an Unencumbered Pool Asset is in full force and effect, and, to the best knowledge of Borrower, no breach or default or event that with the giving of notice or passage of time would constitute a breach or default under the applicable Ground Lease with respect to an Unencumbered Pool Asset (a “Ground Lease Default”) exists or has occurred on the part of the Borrower or any Guarantor or on the part of the ground lessor under any such Ground Lease.

Schedule 6.24 hereto sets forth as of the date of this Agreement all agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, financing agreements or other material agreements binding upon the Borrower and each Guarantor or their respective properties and entered into by the Borrower and/or such Guarantor as of the date of this Agreement with respect to any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Guarantor in an amount greater than $2,000,000.00, and the Borrower has notified the Agent of such documents and provided the Agent with such true, correct and complete copies thereof if such documents have not been filed with the SEC.

§6.25 Solvency.

§6.27 No Fraudulent Intent. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents nor the performance of any actions required hereunder or thereunder is being undertaken by the Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries with or as a result of any actual intent by any of such Persons to hinder, delay or defraud any entity to which any of such Persons is now or will hereafter become indebted.

The direct and indirect benefits to inure to the Borrower, each Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute substantially more than “reasonably equivalent value” (as such term is used in Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) and “valuable consideration,” “fair value,” and “fair consideration” (as such terms are used in any applicable state fraudulent conveyance law), in exchange for the benefits to be provided by the Borrower, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and but for the willingness of each Guarantor to guaranty the Loan, the Borrower would be unable to obtain the financing contemplated hereunder which financing will enable the Borrower, each Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries to have available financing to conduct and expand their business.

§6.29 Contribution Agreement. The Borrower and the Guarantors have executed and delivered the Contribution Agreement, and the Contribution Agreement constitutes the valid and legally binding obligations of such parties enforceable against them in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof, except as enforceability is limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and except to the extent that availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive relief is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

(iv) Voluntarily transfer or encourage the transfer of any resident of any Unencumbered Pool Asset to any other facility (other than to another Unencumbered Pool Asset), unless such transfer is (A) at the request of the resident, (B) for reasons relating to the health, required level of medical care or safety of the resident to be transferred or the residents remaining at the such Unencumbered Pool Asset or (C) as a result of the disruptive behavior of the transferred resident that is detrimental to the Unencumbered Pool Asset.

(d) If and when the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor participates in any Medicare or Medicaid or other Third-Party Payor Programs with respect to the Unencumbered Pool Assets, the Unencumbered Pool Assets will remain in compliance with all requirements necessary for participation in Medicare, Medicaid and such other Third-Party Payor Programs.

Where expressly empowered by the applicable Lease, the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, shall enforce the obligations of the Operator thereunder (if any) to cause its Unencumbered Pool Asset to remain in conformance in all material respects with Healthcare Laws, as well as all insurance, reimbursement and cost reporting requirements, and, if applicable, to have such Operator maintain its current provider agreement(s) in full force and effect with Medicare, Medicaid and any other Third Party Payor Programs in which it participates.

The Borrower shall cause all of its Subsidiaries (subject to the terms of any loan documents under which such Subsidiary is the borrower, including, without limitation, any restrictions on distributions of such Subsidiary set forth in instruments evidencing property-level Secured Indebtedness of such Subsidiary) to promptly distribute to the Borrower (but not less frequently than once each calendar quarter, unless otherwise approved by the Agent), whether in the form of dividends, distributions or otherwise, all profits, proceeds or other income relating to or arising from its Subsidiaries’ use, operation, financing, refinancing, sale or other disposition of their respective assets and properties after (a) the payment by each Subsidiary of its debt service, operating expenses, any U.S. federal, state and local taxes payable by such Subsidiary, capital improvements and leasing commissions for such quarter, (b) the establishment of reasonable reserves for the payment of (i) operating expenses not paid on at least a quarterly basis, (ii) capital improvements and tenant improvements to be made to such Subsidiary’s assets and properties approved by such Subsidiary in the course of its business consistent with its past practices and (iii) any U.S. federal, state or local taxes payable by such Subsidiary, and (c) with respect to any Subsidiary which is a taxable REIT subsidiary, retention of such funds as Guarantor may reasonably determine to the extent that such distribution could reasonably be expected to affect the REIT’s ability to satisfy the income tests in Section 856(c) of the Code. Neither the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries shall enter into any agreement that limits the ability of any Subsidiary to make a Dividend or distribution payment to the Borrower or any Guarantor or to otherwise transfer any property to the Borrower or any Guarantor, provided, however, that this sentence shall not prohibit any negative pledge incurred or provided in favor of any holder of Indebtedness permitted under §8.1(g) and §8.1(h)(B) solely to the extent any such negative pledge relates to the property financed by or the subject of such Indebtedness.

§7.19 Plan Assets. The Borrower, the Guarantors and each of their respective Subsidiaries will do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to ensure that none of its Real Estate will be deemed to be Plan Assets at any time.

§7.20 Unencumbered Pool Assets.

(a) The Eligible Unencumbered Pool Assets included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability and inclusion as Unencumbered Pool Assets shall at all times satisfy all of the following conditions (unless otherwise permitted pursuant to §7.20(b)):

(v) each tenant under a Lease at such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset must not be past due with respect to any payment obligation more than ninety (90) days and in material compliance with all other obligations under its lease, and not subject to any Insolvency Event; provided, however, that if such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset is a multi-tenant facility and a tenant thereof is subject to an Insolvency Proceeding, such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset may be included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability if such tenant does not lease more than forty percent (40%) of the Net Rentable Area of such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset;

(vi) no Eligible Unencumbered Pool Assets which are subject to a lease or leases to any single tenant or any Affiliate thereof shall account for more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Unencumbered Pool Asset Value (and any excess shall be excluded from the Unencumbered Pool Asset Value) (for the purposes hereof, tenants shall not be considered Affiliates of each other solely by virtue of having common ownership by an equity fund provided that their financial results are not consolidated with a common parent entity);

(vii) the aggregate Unencumbered Pool Asset Value of the Eligible Unencumbered Pool Assets constituting LTACs, Rehabs, ASCs, hospitals or other healthcare facilities shall not exceed thirty-five percent (35%) of the Unencumbered Pool Asset Value (and any excess shall be excluded from the Unencumbered Pool Asset Value);

(xiii) the Eligible Unencumbered Pool Assets shall have had a minimum average occupancy of at least eighty percent (80%) for the three (3) month period prior to the time of inclusion of such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Assets as Unencumbered Pool Assets;

(xiv) such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset has not been removed from the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability pursuant to §7.20(c), §7.20(d) or §7.20(e);

(xv) with respect to any Unencumbered Pool Asset that is leased to or operated by a Non-Investment Grade Operator, such Unencumbered Pool Asset shall have a ratio of (a) EBITDAR for such tenant or operator to (b) all base rent and additional rent due and payable by a tenant under any Lease, in each case, during the previous twelve (12) calendar months, of not less than (x) 1.40 to 1.00 for any such Unencumbered Pool Asset that is a Rehab, SNF, LTAC, ASC, hospital or other healthcare facility, and (y) 1.25 to 1.00 for any such Unencumbered Pool Asset that is an ILF or ALF (provided that for the purposes of this §7.20(a)(xv), a Non-Investment Grade Operator shall not include a taxable REIT Subsidiary of REIT that leases such Unencumbered Pool Asset from Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor), it being understood that compliance with the foregoing covenant shall be determined on the basis of financial information provided by such Non-Investment Grade Operator regarding which no Borrower or Guarantor makes any representation or warranty; and provided that Borrower may exclude from compliance with the foregoing covenant Unencumbered Pool Assets subject to this §7.20(a)(xv) whose Unencumbered Pool Asset Value does not in the aggregate exceed ten percent (10%) of total Unencumbered Pool Asset Value to the extent that the applicable Operators’ Agreement existing at the time of acquisition of such Unencumbered Pool Asset by Borrower or its Subsidiaries does not require the delivery of financial information sufficient to permit calculation of the foregoing covenant, or with respect to any Operators’ Agreement the Operator fails to deliver financial information to permit calculation of the foregoing covenant; and

(xvi) the Eligible Unencumbered Pool Assets leased to a single tenant or operator shall at all times have on a collective basis a weighted average remaining lease term (calculated by weighting the remaining lease term of each such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset (without regard to any extension options at the tenant’s discretion) by the Unencumbered Pool Asset Value attributable to such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset) of not less than six (6) years.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Real Estate does not qualify as an Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset or satisfy the requirements of §7.20(a), such Real Estate shall be included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability so long as the Agent shall have received the prior written consent of each of the Required Lenders to the inclusion of such Real Estate in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability.

(c) In the event that all or any material portion of any Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability shall be damaged in any material respect or taken by condemnation, then such property shall no longer be included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability unless and until (i) any damage to such real estate is repaired or restored, such real estate becomes fully operational and the Agent shall receive evidence satisfactory to the Agent of the value of such real estate following such repair or restoration (both at such time and prospectively) or (ii) the Agent shall receive evidence satisfactory to the Agent that the value of such real estate (both at such time and prospectively) shall not be materially adversely affected by such damage or condemnation. In the event that such damage or condemnation only partially affects such Eligible Unencumbered Pool Asset included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability, then the Required Lenders may in good faith reduce the Unencumbered Pool Availability attributable thereto based on such damage until such time as the Required Lenders receive evidence satisfactory to the Required Lenders that the value of such real estate (both at such time and prospectively) shall no longer be materially adversely affected by such damage or condemnation.

(d) Upon any asset ceasing to qualify to be included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability, such asset shall no longer be included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability unless otherwise approved in writing by the Required Lenders. Within five (5) Business Days after becoming aware of any such disqualification, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate reflecting such disqualification, together with the identity of the disqualified asset, a statement as to whether any Default or Event of Default arises as a result of such disqualification, and a calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability attributable to such asset. Simultaneously with the delivery of the items required pursuant above, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent an updated Unencumbered Pool Certificate demonstrating, after giving effect to such removal or disqualification, compliance with the conditions and covenants contained in §9.1.

(e) In addition, the Borrower may voluntarily remove any Real Estate from the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Availability by delivering to the Agent, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to date on which such removal is to be effected, notice of such removal, together with a statement that no Default or Event of Default then exists or would, upon the occurrence of such event or with passage of time, result from such removal, the identity of the Unencumbered Pool Asset being removed, and a calculation of the value attributable to such Unencumbered Pool Asset. Simultaneously with the delivery of the items required pursuant above, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a pro forma Compliance Certificate and Unencumbered Pool Certificate demonstrating, after giving effect to such removal or disqualification, compliance with the covenants contained in §7.20 and §9.1.

Nothing in this §8.4 shall prohibit the dissolution of a Subsidiary which has disposed of its assets in accordance with this Agreement. A Subsidiary of the Borrower may sell all of its assets (and may effectuate such sale by merger or consolidation with another Person, with such other Person being the surviving entity) subject to compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, §5.3 and 8.8), and after any such permitted sale, may dissolve.

§8.5 Sale and Leaseback. The Borrower and the Guarantors will not, and will not permit their respective Subsidiaries, to enter into any arrangement, directly or indirectly, whereby the Borrower, any Guarantor or any such Subsidiary shall sell or transfer any Real Estate owned by it in order that then or thereafter the Borrower or any such Subsidiary shall lease back such Real Estate without the prior written consent of Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

§8.6 Compliance with Environmental Laws. None of the Borrower nor any Guarantor will, nor will any of them permit any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Person to, do any of the following: (a) use any of the Real Estate or any portion thereof as a facility for the handling, processing, storage or disposal of Hazardous Substances, except for quantities of Hazardous Substances used in the ordinary course of operating Medical Properties as permitted under this Agreement and in material compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, (b) cause or permit to be located on any of the Real Estate any underground tank or other underground storage receptacle for Hazardous Substances except in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, (c) generate any Hazardous Substances on any of the Real Estate except in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, (d) conduct any activity at any Real Estate or use any Real Estate in any manner that could reasonably be contemplated to cause a Release of Hazardous Substances on, upon or into the Real Estate or any surrounding properties or any threatened Release of Hazardous Substances which could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under CERCLA or any other Environmental Law, or (e) directly or indirectly transport or arrange for the transport of any Hazardous Substances (except in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws), except, in each case under this §8.6, (i) with respect to any Real Estate that is not an Unencumbered Pool Asset, where any such use, generation, conduct or other activity has not had and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) with respect to any Unencumbered Pool Asset included in the calculation of Unencumbered Pool Asset Value where such use, generation, conduct or other activity has not had and could not reasonably be expected, when taken with other matters covered by §6.19 or this §8.6, to result in liability, clean-up, remediation, containment, correction or other costs to Borrower or any Guarantor individually or in the aggregate with other Unencumbered Pool Assets in excess of $1,000,000.00 or materially adversely affect the operation of or ability to use such property or the health and safety of the tenants or other occupants of such property; provided, that Borrower shall diligently use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue corrective, remedial and other actions required to bring such Unencumbered Pool Asset into compliance with applicable Environmental Laws.

The Borrower and the Guarantors shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to:

(i) in the event of any change in applicable Environmental Laws governing the assessment, release or removal of Hazardous Substances, take reasonable action (including, without limitation, the conducting of engineering tests at the sole expense of the Borrower) to confirm that no Hazardous Substances which are the subject of such change in applicable Environmental Laws were Released or disposed of on the Unencumbered Pool Assets in violation of applicable Environmental Laws, except with respect to any issues which have been previously remediated in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws; and

(ii) if any Release or disposal of Hazardous Substances which any Person may be legally obligated to contain, correct or otherwise remediate or which may be reasonably likely otherwise to expose it to liability shall occur or shall have occurred on the Unencumbered Pool Assets (including, without limitation, any such Release or disposal occurring prior to the acquisition or leasing of such Unencumbered Pool Asset by the Borrower or any Guarantor), the Borrower shall, after obtaining knowledge thereof, cause the prompt containment and removal of such Hazardous Substances and remediation of the Unencumbered Pool Assets as required and in full compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws; provided, that each of the Borrower and a Guarantor shall be deemed to be in compliance with Environmental Laws for the purpose of this clause (ii) so long as it or a responsible third party with sufficient financial resources is taking reasonable action to remediate or manage any event of noncompliance to the extent required under applicable Environmental Laws to the reasonable satisfaction of the Agent and no action shall have been commenced or filed by any enforcement agency.

110

(b) In the event that there shall occur any Default that affects only certain Unencumbered Pool Assets or the owner(s) thereof, then the Borrower may elect to cure such Default (so long as no other Default or Event of Default would arise as a result) by electing to have the Agent remove such Unencumbered Pool Assets from the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Asset Value and by reducing the outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit so that no Default exists under this Agreement, in which event such removal and reduction shall be completed within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice of such Default from the Agent or the Majority Lenders; provided, however, that in the event such Default occurs as a result of a representation or warranty under §6.32 being false (without regard to any knowledge qualifier) in any material respect with respect to an Operator not affiliated with the Borrower, such removal and reduction shall be completed within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of such Default from the Agent or the Majority Lenders.

§12.3 Termination of Commitments. If any one or more Events of Default specified in §12.1(g), 12.1(h), or 12.1(i) shall occur, then immediately and without any action on the part of the Agent or any Lender any unused portion of the credit hereunder shall terminate and the Lenders shall be relieved of all obligations to make Loans or issue Letters of Credit to the Borrower. If any other Event of Default shall have occurred, the Agent may, and upon the election of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, shall, by notice to the Borrower terminate the commitments to make Revolving Credit Loans to and issue Letters of Credit for the Borrower. No termination under this §12.3 shall relieve the Borrower or the Guarantors of their obligations to the Lenders arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

§12.4 Remedies. In case any one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans pursuant to §12.1, the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders may, and upon the direction of the Majority Lenders, shall proceed to protect and enforce their rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Notes and/or any of the other Loan Documents by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, including to the full extent permitted by applicable law the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the obtaining of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if any amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, the enforcement of the payment thereof. No remedy herein conferred upon the Agent or the holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement providing that the Loans may be evidenced by multiple Notes in favor of the Lenders, the Lenders acknowledge and agree that only the Agent may exercise any remedies arising by reason of a Default or Event of Default. If the Borrower or any Guarantor fails to perform any agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents beyond any applicable period for notice and cure, the Agent may itself perform, or cause to be performed, any agreement or covenant of such Person contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which such Person shall fail to perform, and the out-of-pocket costs of such performance, together with any reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred (including attorneys’ fees incurred in any appeal) by the Agent in connection therewith, shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand and shall constitute a part of the Obligations and shall if not paid within thirty (30) days after demand bear interest at the Default Rate. In the event that all or any portion of the Obligations is collected by or through an attorney-at-law, the Borrower shall pay all costs of collection including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees.

111

§12.5 Distribution of Proceeds. In the event that, following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any monies are received in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise with respect to the realization upon any of the assets of the Borrower or the Guarantors, such monies shall be distributed for application as follows:

(a) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of the Agent for or in respect of, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been paid, incurred or sustained by the Agent in connection with the collection of such monies by the Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in support of any provision of adequate indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of the Agent or the Lenders to such monies;

(b) Second, to all other Obligations (including any interest, expenses or other obligations incurred after the commencement of a bankruptcy) in such order or preference as the Majority Lenders shall determine; provided, that (i) Swing Loans shall be repaid first, (ii) distributions in respect of such other Obligations shall include, on a pari passu basis, any Agent’s fee payable pursuant to §4.2, (iii) in the event that any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, payments to such Lender shall be governed by §2.13, and (iv) except as otherwise provided in clause (iii), Obligations owing to the Lenders with respect to each type of Obligation such as interest, principal, fees and expenses (but excluding the Swing Loans) shall be made among the Lenders, pro rata, and as between the Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans pro rata; and provided, further that the Majority Lenders may in their discretion make proper allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and payable; and

112

§12.6 Collateral Account.

(a) As collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, Swing Loans and the other Obligations, the Borrower hereby pledges and grants to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders as provided herein, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to the Collateral Account and the balances from time to time in the Collateral Account (including the investments and reinvestments therein provided for below). The balances from time to time in the Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any Letter of Credit Liabilities or Swing Loans until applied by the Agent as provided herein. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, funds held in the Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only as provided in this §12.6.

(b) Amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested by the Agent in such Cash Equivalents as the Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. All such investments and reinvestments shall be held in the name of and be under the sole dominion and control of the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders. The Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Agent accords other funds deposited with the Agent, it being understood that the Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the Collateral Account.

(c) If a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower and the Lenders authorize the Agent to use the monies deposited in the Collateral Account to make payment to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing or the payee with respect to such presentment. If a Swing Loan is not refinanced as a Base Rate Loan as provided in §2.5 above, then the Agent is authorized to use monies deposited in the Collateral Account to make payment to the Swing Loan Lender with respect to any participation not funded by a Defaulting Lender.

(d) If an Event of Default exists, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders may, in their discretion, at any time and from time to time, instruct the Agent to liquidate any such investments and reinvestments and apply proceeds thereof to the Obligations in accordance with §12.5.

(e) So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities then due and owing and the pro rata share of any Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans of any Defaulting Lender after giving effect to §2.13(c), the Agent shall, from time to time, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower within 10 Business Days after the Agent’s receipt of such request from the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, such of the balances in the Collateral Account as exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swing Loans at such time.

113

(f) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent from time to time such fees as the Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Agent’s administration of the Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of funds therein. The Borrower authorizes the Agent to file such financing statements as the Agent may reasonably require in order to perfect the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral Account, and the Borrower shall promptly upon demand execute and deliver to the Agent such other documents as the Agent may reasonably request to evidence its security interest in the Collateral Account.

§13. SETOFF.

Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral, during the continuance of any Event of Default under §12.1(a) or §12.1(b), including in connection with any acceleration of the Obligations, any deposits (general or specific, time or demand, provisional or final, regardless of currency, maturity, or the branch where such deposits are held) or other sums credited by or due from any Lender to the Borrower or the Guarantors and any securities or other property of the Borrower or the Guarantors in the possession of such Lender may, without notice to the Borrower or any Guarantor (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower and each Guarantor) but with the prior written approval of the Agent, be applied to or set off against the payment of Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of the Borrower or the Guarantors to such Lender. Each of the Lenders agrees with each other Lender that if such Lender shall receive from the Borrower or a Guarantor, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note or Notes held by such Lender (but excluding the Swing Loan Note) any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all of the Lenders with respect to the Notes held by all of the Lenders, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving in respect of the Notes held by it its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. In the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and (b) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

§14. THE AGENT.

§14.1 Authorization. The Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents delegated to the Agent, together with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent. The obligations of the Agent hereunder are primarily administrative in nature, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent as a trustee for any Lender or to create an agency or fiduciary relationship. The Agent shall act as the contractual representative of the Lenders hereunder, and notwithstanding the use of the term “Agent”, it is understood and agreed that the Agent shall not have any fiduciary duties or responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and is acting as an independent contractor, the duties and responsibilities of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower and any other Person shall be entitled to conclusively rely on a statement from the Agent that it has the authority to act for and bind the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

114

§14.2 Employees and Agents. The Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.

§14.3 No Liability. Neither the Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent, or employee thereof, shall be liable for (a) any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, shall be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (b) any action taken or not taken by the Agent with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to the Loan Documents and describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.

§14.4 No Representations. The Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein, or any agreement, instrument or certificate delivered in connection therewith or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by the Borrower, the Guarantors or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. The Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the creditworthiness or financial condition of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or the value of any collateral or any other assets of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, based upon such information and documents as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Agent’s Special Counsel has only represented the Agent and KeyBank in connection with the Loan Documents and the only attorney client relationship or duty of care is between the Agent’s Special Counsel and the Agent or KeyBank. Each Lender has been independently represented by separate counsel on all matters regarding the Loan Documents.

115

§14.5 Payments.

(a) A payment by the Borrower or any Guarantor to the Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender. The Agent agrees to distribute to each Lender not later than one (1) Business Day after the Agent’s receipt of good funds, determined in accordance with the Agent’s customary practices, such Lender’s pro rata share of payments received by the Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, each payment by the Borrower hereunder shall be applied in accordance with §2.13(d).

(b) If in the opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making such distribution until its right to make such distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court. In the event that the Agent shall refrain from making any distribution of any amount received by it as provided in this §14.5(b), the Agent shall endeavor to hold such amounts in an interest bearing account and at such time as such amounts may be distributed to the Lenders, the Agent shall distribute to each Lender, based on their respective Commitment Percentages, its pro rata share of the interest or other earnings from such deposited amount.

§14.6 Holders of Notes. Subject to the terms of §18, the Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.

116

§14.7 Indemnity. The Lenders ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower and the Guarantors as required by §15), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent’s actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this §14.7 shall survive the payment of all amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

§14.8 The Agent as Lender. In its individual capacity, KeyBank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it not also the Agent.

§14.9 Resignation. The Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Any such resignation may at the Agent’s option also constitute the Agent’s resignation as the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders, subject to the terms of §18.1, shall have the right to appoint as a successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, any Lender or any bank whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A” or its equivalent by Moody’s or not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within ten (10) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be any Lender or any bank whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A2” or its equivalent by Moody’s or not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Agent and, if applicable, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender, hereunder by a successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, such successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, and the retiring Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder as the Agent and, if applicable, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender. After any retiring Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender. If the resigning Agent shall also resign as the Issuing Lender, such successor Agent shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the current Issuing Lender, in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Agent with respect to such Letters of Credit. Upon any change in the Agent under this Agreement, the resigning Agent shall execute such assignments of and amendments to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to substitute the successor Agent for the resigning Agent.

117

§14.10 Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent may and, if (a) so requested by the Majority Lenders and (b) the Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, shall proceed to exercise all or any legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Agent reasonably determines payment is in the best interest of all the Lenders, the Agent may without the approval of the Lenders pay taxes and insurance premiums and spend money for maintenance, repairs or other expenses which may be necessary to be incurred, and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of such action. Each Lender shall, within thirty (30) days of request therefor, pay to the Agent its Commitment Percentage of the reasonable costs incurred by the Agent in taking any such actions hereunder to the extent that such costs shall not be promptly reimbursed to the Agent by the Borrower or the Guarantors within such period. The Majority Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such exercise, the Lenders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction or commercially unreasonable under the UCC as enacted in any applicable jurisdiction.

§14.11 Bankruptcy. In the event a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced by or against the Borrower or any Guarantor with respect to the Obligations, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to file and pursue a joint proof claim on behalf of all Lenders. Any votes with respect to such claims or otherwise with respect to such proceedings shall be subject to the vote of the Majority Lenders, Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as required by this Agreement. Each Lender irrevocably waives its right to file or pursue a separate proof of claim in any such proceedings unless the Agent fails to file such claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Lenders requesting that the Agent file such proof of claim.

§14.12 Reliance by the Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by an Authorized Officer. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent (or Issuing Lender, as applicable) may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent (or Issuing Lender, as applicable) shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan or issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower and/or the Guarantors), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

118

§14.13 Approvals. If consent is required for some action under this Agreement, or except as otherwise provided herein an approval of the Lenders, the Majority Lenders, the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders is required or permitted under this Agreement, each Lender agrees to give the Agent, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the request for action from the Agent together with all reasonably requested information related thereto (or such lesser period of time required by the terms of the Loan Documents), notice in writing of approval or disapproval (collectively, “Directions”) in respect of any action requested or proposed in writing pursuant to the terms hereof. To the extent that any Lender does not approve any recommendation of the Agent, such Lender shall in such notice to the Agent describe the actions that would be acceptable to such Lender. If consent is required for the requested action, any Lender’s failure to respond to a request for Directions within the required time period shall be deemed to constitute a Direction to take such requested action. In the event that any recommendation is not approved by the requisite number of Lenders and a subsequent approval on the same subject matter is requested by the Agent, then for the purposes of this paragraph each Lender shall be required to respond to a request for Directions within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such request. The Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to assume that any officer of the other Lenders delivering any notice, consent, certificate or other writing is authorized to give such notice, consent, certificate or other writing unless the Agent and such other Lenders have otherwise been notified in writing.

§14.14 The Borrower Not Beneficiary. Except for the provisions of §14.9 relating to the appointment of a successor Agent, the provisions of this §14 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, may not be enforced by the Borrower or any Guarantor, and except for the provisions of §14.9, may be modified or waived without the approval or consent of the Borrower.

119

§15. EXPENSES.

The Borrower agrees to pay (a) the reasonable costs of producing and reproducing this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other agreements and instruments mentioned herein, (b) any taxes (including any interest and penalties in respect thereto) payable by the Agent or any of the Lenders, including any taxes payable on or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and further including any such taxes payable by the Agent or any of the Lenders after the Closing Date (the Borrower hereby agreeing to indemnify the Agent and each Lender with respect thereto except for Excluded Taxes), (c) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of a single counsel to the Agent and each Arranger and a single local counsel per jurisdiction to the Agent incurred in connection with the preparation, administration, or interpretation of the Loan Documents and other instruments mentioned herein, and amendments, modifications, approvals, consents or waivers hereto or hereunder, (d) the out-of-pocket fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of the Agent and each Arranger incurred in connection with the syndication and/or participation (by KeyBank) of the Loans, (e) all other reasonable out of pocket fees, expenses and disbursements of the Agent incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation or interpretation of the Loan Documents and other instruments mentioned herein, the making of each advance hereunder, the issuance of Letters of Credit, and the syndication of the Commitments pursuant to §18 (without duplication of those items addressed in clause (d) above), (f) all out of pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, and fees and costs of appraisers, engineers, investment bankers or other experts retained by the Agent) incurred by any Lender or the Agent in connection with (i) the enforcement of or preservation of rights under any of the Loan Documents against the Borrower or the Guarantors or the administration thereof after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, and (ii) any litigation, proceeding or dispute arising under the Loan Documents, provided, that, in connection with the attorney’s fees and costs payable by Borrower under this clause (f), Borrower shall only be obligated to pay for the reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of a counsel to the Agent (which at the Agent’s discretion may include any local counsel or any other counsel to the Agent which the Agent may retain) and a single law firm for the Lenders (provided that in the event of a conflict of interest with respect to counsel for the Lenders, Borrower shall also pay the reasonable fees and costs of an additional single law firm for such Lenders), (g) all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) which may be incurred by KeyBank in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (without duplication of any of the items listed above), and (h) all expenses relating to the use of Intralinks, SyndTrak or any other similar system for the dissemination and sharing of documents and information in connection with the Loans. The covenants of this §15 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder.

§16. INDEMNIFICATION.

The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent, the Lenders and each Arranger and each director, officer, employee, agent, Attorney and Affiliate thereof and Person who controls the Agent, or any Lender or either Arranger against any and all claims, actions and suits, whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses of every nature and character arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby including, without limitation, (a) any and all claims for brokerage, leasing, finders or similar fees which may be made relating to the Unencumbered Pool Assets, other Real Estate or the Loans, (b) any condition of the Unencumbered Pool Assets or any other Real Estate, (c) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of any of the Loans or Letters of Credit, (d) any actual or alleged infringement of any patent, copyright, trademark, service xxxx or similar right of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, (e) the Borrower entering into or performing this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (f) any actual or alleged violation of any law, ordinance, code, order, rule, regulation, approval, consent, permit or license relating to the Unencumbered Pool Assets or any other Real Estate, (g) with respect to the Borrower, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries and their respective properties and assets, the violation of any Environmental Law, the Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Substances or any action, suit, proceeding or investigation brought or threatened with respect to any Hazardous Substances (including, but not limited to, claims with respect to wrongful death, personal injury, nuisance or damage to property), and (h) any use of Intralinks, SyndTrak or any other system for the dissemination and sharing of documents and information, in each case including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated under this §16 to indemnify any Person for liabilities arising from such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. In litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Lenders and the Agent shall be entitled to select a single law firm as their own counsel and, in addition to the foregoing indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. If, and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this §16 are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agree to make the maximum contribution to the payment in satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. The provisions of this §16 shall survive the repayment of the Loans, the return of the Letters of Credit and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder.

120

§17. SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein, in the Notes, in any of the other Loan Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Agent, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by any of them, and shall survive the making by the Lenders of any of the Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, as herein contemplated, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any amount due under this Agreement or the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents (other than any indemnification obligations which survive the termination of this Agreement and/or the full repayment of the Loans and any other amounts due under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) remains outstanding or any Letters of Credit remain outstanding or any Lender has any obligation to make any Loans or issue any Letters of Credit. The indemnification obligations of the Borrower provided herein and in the other Loan Documents shall survive the full repayment of amounts due and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder and thereunder to the extent provided herein and therein. All statements contained in any certificate delivered to any Lender or the Agent at any time by or on behalf of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute representations and warranties by such Person hereunder.

§18. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION.

§18.1 Conditions to Assignment by Lenders. Except as provided herein, each Lender may assign to one or more banks or other entities all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that (a) the Agent, the Issuing Lender and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower shall have each given its prior written consent to such assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and if the Borrower does not respond to any such request for consent within ten (10) Business Days, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented (provided that such consent shall not be required for any assignment to another Lender, to a Related Fund, to a lender or an Affiliate of a Lender which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the assigning Lender or to a wholly-owned Subsidiary of such Lender), (b) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment in the event an interest in the Revolving Credit Loans is assigned, or of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans and the Term Loan Commitment in the event an interest in the Term Loans is assigned, and if such Lender holds both a Revolving Credit Commitment and a Term Loan Commitment, such Lender shall assign an equal percentage of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Term Loan Commitment, (c) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined) an assignment and acceptance agreement in the form of Exhibit J attached hereto (an “Assignment and Acceptance Agreement”), together with any Notes subject to such assignment, (d) in no event shall any assignment be to any natural person or any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by the Borrower or any Guarantor or be to a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, (e) such assignee of a portion of the Revolving Credit Loans shall have a net worth or unfunded commitment as of the date of such assignment of not less than $100,000,000.00 (unless otherwise approved by the Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower), (f) such assignee shall acquire an interest in the Loans of not less than $5,000,000.00 and integral multiples of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof (or if less, the remaining Loans of the assignor), unless waived by the Agent, and so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower and (g) if such assignment is less than the assigning Lender’s entire Commitment, the assigning Lender shall retain an interest in the Loans of not less than $5,000,000.00. Upon execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and all other Loan Documents executed by the Lenders and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, (ii) the assigning Lender shall, upon payment to the Agent of the registration fee referred to in §18.2, be released from its obligations under this Agreement arising after the effective date of such assignment with respect to the assigned portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) the Agent may unilaterally amend Schedule 1.1 to reflect such assignment. In connection with each assignment, the assignee shall represent and warrant to the Agent, the assignor and each other Lender as to whether such assignee is controlling, controlled by, under common control with or is not otherwise free from influence or control by, the Borrower and/or any Guarantor and whether such assignee is a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Default exists hereunder, no assignment pursuant to this §18.1 shall be to another real estate investment trust which owns and/or operates healthcare facilities and could reasonably be considered a competitor of REIT or any Affiliate thereof (a “Competitor REIT”); provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall not apply if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

122

§18.2 Register. The Agent shall maintain on behalf of the Borrower a copy of each assignment delivered to it and a register or similar list (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment Percentages of and principal amount of the Loans owing to the Lenders from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon each such recordation, the assigning Lender agrees to pay to the Agent a registration fee in the sum of $3,500.00.

§18.3 New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed by the parties to such assignment, together with each Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall record the information contained therein in the Register. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice of such assignment from the Agent, the Borrower, at the applicable assignee’s own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Agent, in exchange for each surrendered original Note (or an indemnity agreement, as provided in §31), a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the amount assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and, if the assigning Lender has retained some portion of its obligations hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the amount retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes. The surrendered original Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower (or the Borrower shall receive an indemnity agreement, as provided in §31).

123

§18.4 Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Lenders or other entities in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (a) any such sale or participation shall not affect the rights and duties of the selling Lender hereunder, (b) such participation shall not entitle such participant to any rights or privileges under this Agreement or any Loan Documents, including without limitation, rights granted to the Lenders under §§4.8, 4.9, 4.10 and 13, (c) such participation shall not entitle the participant to the right to approve waivers, amendments or modifications, (d) such participant shall have no direct rights against the Borrower, (e) such sale is effected in accordance with all applicable laws, and (f) such participant shall not be a Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by the Borrower and/or any Guarantor and shall not be a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender and, provided that no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, shall not be a Competitor REIT; provided, however, such Lender may agree with the participant that it will not, without the consent of the participant, agree to (i) increase, or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination of, such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender (other than pursuant to an extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to §2.12), (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (v) release any Guarantor (except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement). Any Lender which sells a participation shall promptly notify the Agent of such sale and the identity of the purchaser of such interest. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

§18.5 Pledge by Lender. Any Lender may at any time pledge all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Note) to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. §341 or to such other Person as the Agent may approve to secure obligations of such Lender. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Lender from its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

§18.6 No Assignment by the Borrower. The Borrower shall not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders.

124

§18.7 Disclosure. The Borrower and the Guarantors each agree to promptly cooperate with any Lender in connection with any proposed assignment or participation of all or any portion of its Commitment. The Borrower and the Guarantors each agree that in addition to disclosures made in accordance with standard banking practices any Lender may disclose information obtained by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement to assignees or participants and potential assignees or participants hereunder. Each Lender agrees for itself that it shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with its customary procedures to hold confidential all non-public information obtained from the Borrower or any Guarantor that has been identified in writing as confidential by any of them, and shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with its customary procedures to not disclose such information to any other Person, it being understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender may make (a) disclosures to its participants (provided such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7), (b) disclosures to its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors of such Lender (provided that such Persons who are not employees of such Lender are advised of the provision of this §18.7), (c) disclosures customarily provided or reasonably required by any potential or actual bona fide assignee, transferee or participant or their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors in connection with a potential or actual assignment or transfer by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein (provided such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7), (d) disclosures to bank regulatory authorities or self-regulatory bodies with jurisdiction over such Lender, or (e) disclosures required or requested by any other Governmental Authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall notify the Borrower of any request by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof prior to disclosure (other than any such request in connection with any examination or oversight of such Lender by such Governmental Authority or other requests by regulators that are not part of an examination) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information. In addition, each Lender may make disclosure of such information to any contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisors (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisors agree to be bound by the provisions of this §18.7). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall disclose such non-public information to a Competitor REIT unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or the Borrower has consented to such disclosure (or is deemed to have consented pursuant to §18.1). Non-public information shall not include any information which is or subsequently becomes publicly available other than as a result of a disclosure of such information by a Lender, or prior to the delivery to such Lender is within the possession of such Lender if such information is not known by such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with or other obligations of secrecy to the Borrower or the Guarantors, is or becomes available to Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates on a non-confidential basis, or is disclosed with the prior approval of the Borrower or the Guarantors. Nothing herein shall prohibit the disclosure of non-public information to the extent necessary to enforce the Loan Documents.

125

§18.8 Mandatory Assignment. In the event the Borrower requests that certain amendments, modifications or waivers be made to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which request requires approval of all of the Lenders, the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders directly affected thereby or another group of requisite Lenders and is approved by the Majority Lenders, but is not approved by one or more of the Lenders (any such non-consenting Lender shall hereafter be referred to as the “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, within thirty (30) Business Days after the Borrower’s receipt of notice of such disapproval by such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower shall have the right as to such Non-Consenting Lender, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to the Agent and the Non-Consenting Lender within thirty (30) Business Days of receipt of such notice, to elect to cause the Non-Consenting Lender to transfer its Commitment. The Agent shall promptly notify the remaining Lenders that each of such Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire a portion of the Commitment, pro rata based upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Non-Consenting Lender (or if any of such Lenders does not elect to purchase its pro rata share, then to such remaining Lenders in such proportion as approved by the Agent). In the event that the Lenders do not elect to acquire all of the Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment, then the Agent shall endeavor to find a new Lender or Lenders to acquire such remaining Commitment. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender, the Non-Consenting Lender’s interests in the Obligations and its rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase, and the Non-Consenting Lender shall promptly execute and deliver any and all documents reasonably requested by the Agent to surrender and transfer such interest, including, without limitation, an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and such Non-Consenting Lender’s original Note. The purchase price for the Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment shall equal any and all amounts outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Non-Consenting Lender, including principal and all accrued and unpaid interest or fees, plus any applicable amounts payable pursuant to §4.7 which would be owed to such Non-Consenting Lender if the Loans were to be repaid in full on the date of such purchase of the Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment (provided that the Borrower may pay to such Non-Consenting Lender any interest, fees or other amounts (other than principal) owing to such Non-Consenting Lender).

§18.9 Amendments to Loan Documents. Upon any such assignment, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall, upon the request of the Agent, enter into such documents as may be reasonably required by the Agent to modify the Loan Documents to reflect such assignment.

§18.10 Titled Agents. The Titled Agents shall not have any additional rights or obligations under the Loan Documents, except for those rights, if any, as a Lender.
