Note or this Mortgage or any other agreement, document, or instrument securing
the payment of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note (the Note, this Mortgage,
and any other documents evidencing or securing the indebtedness evidenced by the
Note or executed in connection therewith, and any modification, renewal, and/or
extension thereof, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "LOAN
DOCUMENTS"), and (ii) the prompt performance of each and every covenant,
condition, and agreement now or hereafter arising contained in the Loan
Documents of Borrower. All payment obligations of Borrower are hereinafter
sometimes collectively referred to as the "INDEBTEDNESS" and all other
obligations of Borrower are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as
the "OBLIGATIONS"; and
C. The schedule of Defined Terms appearing immediately before this page is
incorporated into this Mortgage by reference with the same force and effect as
if contained in the body hereof.
D. Subsequent to the closing of the "Loan" (as defined in the Note),
subject to the terms of PARAGRAPH 15 of this Mortgage, Borrower may transfer

Assumption, Ratification and Consent Agreements(s) by and between Borrower,
Guarantor, the Tenants in Common and Lender (individually and collectively, the
"ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT"), and upon the execution of such Assumption Agreement,
"Grantor" shall thereafter be deemed to collectively include Borrower under this
Mortgage and all then existing Tenants in Common.
NOW, THEREFORE, TO SECURE TO LENDER the repayment of the Indebtedness and
the performance of the Obligations, Borrower has mortgaged, given, granted,
bargained, sold, alienated, enfeoffed, transferred, conveyed, confirmed,

security interest in and to Lender the following described property and all
proceeds thereof (which property is hereinafter sometimes collectively referred

front of or adjoining the Land, to the center line thereof and all the estates,
rights, titles, interests, dower and rights of dower, curtesy and rights of
curtesy, property, possession, claim and demand whatsoever, both at law and in
equity, of Borrower of, in and to the Land and the Improvements and every part
and parcel thereof, with the appurtenances thereto;
D. All agreements affecting the use, enjoyment or occupancy of the Land
and/or Improvements now or hereafter entered into (the "LEASES"), including any
and all guaranties of such Leases, and the immediate and continuing right to
collect all rents, income, receipts, royalties, profits, issues, service
reimbursements, fees, accounts receivables, revenues and prepayments of any of
the same from or related to the Land and/or Improvements from time to time
accruing under the Leases and/or the operation of the Land and/or Improvements
(the "RENTS"), reserving to Borrower, however, so long as no "EVENT OF DEFAULT"
(hereinafter defined) has occurred hereunder, a revocable license to receive and
apply the Rents in accordance with the terms and conditions of PARAGRAPH 13 of
this Mortgage;
E. The Personal Property;
F. All awards or payments, including interest thereon, which may heretofore
and hereafter be made with respect to the Land and the Improvements, whether

not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise
of said rights), or for a change of grade, or for any other injury to or
decrease in the value of the Land and Improvements;
G. All proceeds of and any unearned premiums on any insurance policies
covering the Property, including, without limitation, the right to receive and
apply the proceeds of any insurance, judgments, or settlements made in lieu
thereof, for damage to the Property;
H. All proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of any of the
foregoing including, without limitation, proceeds of insurance and condemnation
awards, into cash or liquidation claims;
I. Any and all proceeds and products of any of the foregoing and any and
all other security and collateral of any nature whatsoever, now or hereafter
given for the repayment of the Indebtedness and the performance of Borrower's
obligations under the Loan Documents,
2
including (without limitation) the Replacement Reserve, the TI and Leasing
Reserve, and all other escrows established with Lender by Borrower; and
J. All property management agreements and tenants in common agreements
relating to the Property.
AND without limiting any of the other provisions of this Mortgage, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower expressly grants to Lender, as a
secured party, a security interest in the portion of the Property that is or may
be subject to the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code that are applicable
to secured transactions; it being understood and agreed that the Improvements
and Fixtures are part and parcel of the Land (the Land, the Improvements and the
Fixtures are collectively referred to as the "REAL PROPERTY") appropriated to
the use thereof and, whether affixed or annexed to the Real Property or not,
shall for the purposes of this Mortgage be deemed conclusively to be real estate
and mortgaged hereby.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Property and all parts thereof, together with the
rents, issues, profits and proceeds thereof, unto Lender to its own proper use,
benefit, and advantage forever, subject, however, to the terms, covenants, and
conditions herein.
At no time shall the principal amount of the Indebtedness, not including
sums advanced in accordance herewith to protect the security of this Mortgage,
exceed TWO HUNDRED PERCENT (200%) of the original amount of the Note.
Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender as follows:
1. PAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS; PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS. Borrower shall
promptly pay when due the Indebtedness and shall promptly perform all
Obligations.
2. TAXES AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS. Borrower shall pay, when due, and before
any interest, collection fees or penalties shall accrue, all taxes, assessments,
fines, impositions and other charges and obligations, including charges and
obligations for any present or future repairs or improvements made on the
Property, or for any other goods or services or utilities furnished to the
Property, which may become a lien on or charge against the Property prior to
this Mortgage, subject, however, to Borrower's right to contest such lien or
charge upon the posting of security reasonably satisfactory to Lender so long as
such contest stays the enforcement or collection of such lien or charge. Should
Borrower fail to make such payments, Lender may, at its option and at the
expense of Borrower, pay the amounts due for the account of Borrower. Upon the
request of Lender, Borrower shall immediately furnish to Lender all notices of
amounts due and receipts evidencing payment. Borrower shall promptly notify
Lender of any lien on all or any part of the Property and shall promptly
discharge any unpermitted lien or encumbrance.
3. RESERVES FOR TAXES/GROUND RENTS/INSURANCE/REPLACEMENT RESERVE/TENANT
IMPROVEMENTS AND LEASING RESERVE.
(a) Borrower shall pay to Lender, at the time of and in addition to
the monthly installments of principal and/or interest due under the Note, a
sum equal to 1/12 of the amount estimated by Lender from time to time to be
sufficient to enable Lender to pay at least 30 days before they become due
and payable, all taxes, assessments and other
3
similar charges levied against the Property (collectively, the "TAXES"),
and all ground rents, if applicable. So long as no Event of Default exists
hereunder, Lender shall apply the sums so paid by Borrower to pay such tax
items and ground rents, if applicable. In making any such payments, Lender
may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate obtained by Lender
in good faith, without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or
estimate or into the validity thereof. These sums may be commingled with
the general funds of Lender, and no interest shall be payable thereon nor
shall these sums constitute trust funds. If such amount on deposit with
Lender is insufficient to fully pay such tax items and ground rents, if
applicable, Borrower shall, within 10 days following notice at any time
from Lender, deposit such additional sum as may be required for the full
payment of such tax items and ground rents, if applicable. Borrower hereby
represents and warrants that Lender has a security interest in such funds
and Borrower shall execute any other documents and take any other actions
necessary to provide Lender with a perfected security interest. Upon the
Maturity Date, the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its
agent shall, at Lender's option, be applied against the Indebtedness. The
obligation of Borrower to pay such tax items and ground rents is not
affected or modified by the provisions of this paragraph.
(b) Borrower shall pay to Lender, at the time of and in addition to
the monthly installments of principal and/or interest due under the Note, a
sum equal to 1/12 of the amount estimated by Lender from time to time to be
sufficient to enable Lender to pay at least 30 days before they become due
and payable, all insurance premiums due for the renewal, on an annual
basis, of the coverage afforded by the insurance policies required
hereunder upon the expiration thereof. So long as no Event of Default
exists hereunder, Lender shall apply the sums so paid by Borrower to pay
such insurance premiums. In making any such payment, Lender may do so
according to any xxxx, statement or estimate obtained by Lender in good
faith, without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or
estimate or into the validity thereof. These sums may be commingled with
the general funds of Lender, and no interest shall be payable thereon nor
shall these sums constitute trust funds. If such amount on deposit with
Lender is insufficient to fully pay such insurance premiums, Borrower
shall, within 10 days following notice at any time from Lender, deposit
such additional sum as may be required for the full payment of such
insurance premiums. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that Lender has
a security interest in such funds and Borrower shall execute any other
documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with a
perfected security interest. Upon the Maturity Date, the moneys then
remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at Lender's option, be
applied against the Indebtedness. The obligation of Borrower to pay such
insurance premiums is not affected or modified by the provisions of this
paragraph.
(c) At the time of and in addition to the monthly installments of
principal and/or interest due under the Note, Borrower shall pay to Lender
the Replacement Reserve Monthly Payment (such payments shall be referred to
as the "REPLACEMENT RESERVE"). The Replacement Reserve may be commingled
with the general funds of Lender and such Replacement Reserve shall not
constitute trust funds. The funds contained in the Replacement Reserve
shall bear interest for the benefit of Borrower at the rate of interest
which is the lower of (i) the amount paid from time to time by Lender on
commercial money market accounts; or (ii) the return on permitted
investments to be made with the
4
funds by any third party servicer, rating agency or loan purchaser
("RESERVE INTEREST RATE"), and all such interest shall be added to and
become part of the Replacement Reserve, provided Lender shall make no
representation or warranty as to the actual rate of interest. The funds
contained in the Replacement Reserve shall be utilized by Borrower solely
for exterior, structural, HVAC and mechanical improvements that are
customarily accounted for as capital expenses, and other capital
improvements approved in advance by Lender. Lender shall make disbursements
from the Replacement Reserve for the actual cost of such items and approved
capital improvements upon Borrower's providing Lender with receipts,
invoices, lien waivers, photographs and other documentation deemed
necessary by Lender to insure that the work and/or materials related to the
requested disbursement have been completed and/or provided, with minimum
draws of $10,000.00, which shall occur no more frequently than once per
month. Upon the Maturity Date, the moneys then remaining on deposit with
Lender or its agent shall, at Lender's option, be applied against the
Indebtedness. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that Lender has a
security interest in the Replacement Reserve and Borrower shall execute any
other documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with
a perfected security interest in the Replacement Reserve.
(d) At the time of and in addition to the monthly installments
interest due under the Note, Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly deposits
in the amount of the TI and Leasing Reserve Monthly Payment for approved
tenant improvements and leasing commissions (such payments shall be
referred to as the "TI AND LEASING RESERVE"). The TI and Leasing Reserve
may be commingled with the general funds of Lender and such TI and Leasing
Reserve shall not constitute trust funds. The funds contained in the TI and
Leasing Reserve shall bear interest for the benefit of Borrower at the
Reserve Interest Rate and all such interest shall be added to and become a
part of the TI and Leasing Reserve, provided Lender shall make no
representation or warranty as to the actual rate of interest. The funds
contained in the TI and Leasing Reserve shall be disbursed to Borrower
solely to pay for tenant improvements and leasing commissions due pursuant
to leases entered into in accordance with the requirements of PARAGRAPH 7
hereof or otherwise approved by Lender, but only when the tenants under
such leases are in occupancy, open for business, and paying full
contractual rent without any right of offset or rent abatement. Lender
shall make disbursements from the TI and Leasing Reserve for the actual
cost of such approved tenant improvements and leasing commissions upon
Borrower's providing Lender with receipts, invoices, lien waivers,
photographs and other documentation deemed necessary by Lender to insure
that the work and/or materials related to the requested disbursement have
been completed and/or provided, with minimum draws of $10,000.00, which
shall occur no more frequently than once per month. Upon the Maturity Date,
the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at
Lender's option, be applied against the Indebtedness. Borrower hereby
represents and warrants that Lender has a security interest in the TI and
Leasing Reserve and shall execute any other documents and take any other
actions necessary to provide Lender with a perfected security interest in
the TI and Leasing Reserve.
5
(e) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any
amounts then held in any of the Reserves described above to the payment of
the Indebtedness in such order as Lender may elect, in its sole and
absolute discretion.
4. USE OF PROPERTY. Unless required by applicable law, Borrower shall not
permit changes in the use of any part of the Property from the use existing at
the time this Mortgage was executed, which use Borrower represents and warrants
is limited to the Permitted Use and related uses. Borrower shall not initiate or
acquiesce in a change in the zoning classification of the Property without
Lender's prior written consent.
5. INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause
to be maintained, insurance for Borrower and the Property providing at least the
following coverages:
(a) comprehensive all risk insurance ("SPECIAL FORM") including, but
not limited to, loss caused by any type of windstorm or hail on the
Improvements and the Personal Property, (i) in an amount equal to one
hundred percent (100%) of the "FULL REPLACEMENT COST," which for purposes
of this Mortgage shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of
excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with a waiver
of depreciation, but the amount shall in no event be less than the
outstanding principal balance of the Loan; (ii) containing an agreed amount
endorsement with respect to the Improvements and Personal Property waiving
all co-insurance provisions or to be written on a no co-insurance form;
(iii) providing for no deductible in excess of Ten Thousand and 00/100
Dollars ($10,000.00) for all such insurance coverage excluding windstorm
and earthquake, and (iv) if any of the Improvements or the use of the
Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or
uses, coverage for loss due to operation of law in an amount equal to the
Full Replacement Cost, coverage for demolition costs and coverage for
increased costs of construction. In addition, Borrower shall obtain: (A) if
any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future
located in a federally designated "special flood hazard area", flood hazard
insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the outstanding principal
balance of the Note or (2) the maximum amount of such insurance available
under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994,
as each may be amended or such greater amount as Lender shall require and
(B) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance satisfactory
to Lender in the event the Property is located in an area with a high
degree of seismic activity;
(b) business income insurance (i) with loss payable to Lender; (ii)
covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in
subparagraph (a) above; (iii) in an amount equal to one hundred percent
(100%) of the projected gross revenues from the operation of the Property
(as reduced to reflect expenses not incurred during a period of restoration
or repair) for a period of at least twelve (12) months after the date of
the loss or damage by fire or other casualty; and (iv) containing an
extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the
physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property has been repaired,
the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either
returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of
six (6) months from the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and
operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that
the policy may
6
expire prior to the end of such period. The amount of such business income
insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once
each year thereafter based on Borrower's reasonable estimate of the gross
revenues from the Property for the succeeding twelve (12) month period. All
proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by
Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan
Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note;
provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve
Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan
Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in this Mortgage
and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually
paid out of the proceeds of such business income insurance;
(c) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or
alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, and only if
the Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (i) owner's contingent
or protective liability insurance, otherwise known as Owner Contractor's
Protective Liability, covering claims not covered by or under the terms or
provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance
policy and (ii) the insurance provided for in subparagraph (a) above
written in a so-called builder's risk completed value form (A) on a
non-reporting basis, (B) against all risks insured against pursuant to
subparagraph (a) above, (C) including permission to occupy the Property and
(D) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;
(d) comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, if steam boilers or
other pressure-fixed vessels are in operation, in amounts as shall be
reasonably required by Lender on terms consistent with the commercial
property insurance policy required under subparagraph (a) above;
(e) commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal
injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about
the Property, such insurance (i) to be on the so-called "occurrence" form
with a combined limit of not less than Two Million and 00/100 Dollars
($2,000,000.00) in the aggregate and One Million and 00/100 Dollars
($1,000,000.00) per occurrence; (ii) to continue at not less than the
aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason
of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate and (iii)
to cover at least the following hazards: (A) premises and operations; (B)
products and completed operations on an "if any" basis; (C) independent
contractors; (D) blanket contractual liability for all written contracts
and (E) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in
PARAGRAPH 29 of this Mortgage to the extent the same is available;
(f) automobile liability coverage for all owned and non-owned
vehicles, including rented and leased vehicles containing minimum limits
per occurrence of One Million Dollars and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00);
(g) worker's compensation and employee's liability subject to the
worker's compensation laws of the applicable state;
7
(h) umbrella and excess liability insurance in an amount not less than
Three Million and 00/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) per occurrence on terms
consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required
under subparagraph (e) above, including, but not limited to, supplemental
coverage for employer liability and automobile liability, which umbrella
liability coverage shall apply in excess of the automobile liability
coverage in subparagraph (f) above;
(i) the insurance required under this PARAGRAPH 5 above shall cover
perils of terrorism and acts of terrorism and Borrower shall maintain
insurance for loss resulting from perils and acts of terrorism on terms
(including amounts) consistent with those required under PARAGRAPH 5 above
at all times during the term of the Loan; and
(j) upon sixty (60) days written notice, such other reasonable
insurance, including, but not limited to, sinkhole or land subsidence
insurance, if available at commercially reasonable costs, and in such
reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request
against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured
against for property similar to the Property located in or around the
region in which the Property is located.
All insurance provided for in this PARAGRAPH 5, shall be obtained under
valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the "POLICIES" or in the singular,
the "POLICY"), and shall be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance
companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be
issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do
business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of "AA" or
better (and the equivalent thereof) by at least two (2) of the rating agencies
rating the Securities (one (1) of which shall be S&P if they are rating the
Securities and one (1) of which will be Moody's if they are rating the
Securities), or if only one (1) rating agency is rating the Securities, then
only by such rating agency. The Policies described in this PARAGRAPH 5 (other
than those strictly limited to liability protection) shall designate Lender as
loss payee. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the
Policies theretofore furnished to Lender, certificates of insurance evidencing
the Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the
premiums due thereunder (the "INSURANCE PREMIUMS"), shall be delivered by
Borrower to Lender. Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to
the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and
shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring
only the Property in compliance with the provisions of this PARAGRAPH 5. All
Policies provided for or contemplated by this PARAGRAPH 5, except for the Policy
referenced in PARAGRAPH 5(G) of this Mortgage, shall name Borrower as the
insured and Lender as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and
in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake
insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing
mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be
payable to Lender. All Policies shall contain clauses or endorsements to the
effect that: (1) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for
Borrower, or of any tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the
provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the
insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or
enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned; (2) the Policy
shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided
thereby) or canceled without at least ten (10) days written notice to Lender and
any other party named therein as an additional
8
insured; (3) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the
Policy has not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and (4)
Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any
assessments thereunder.
Borrower shall keep the Improvements insured, and shall maintain during the
entire term of this Mortgage, comprehensive general liability coverage and such
other coverages requested by Lender, by carrier(s), in amounts and in form at
all times satisfactory to Lender, which carrier(s), amounts and form shall not
be changed without the prior written consent of Lender. All such policies of
insurance shall be issued by insurers qualified under the laws of the state in
which the Land is located, duly authorized and licensed to transact business in
such state and reflecting the Required Rating. Borrower shall maintain all
coverages on the Property as are required by Lender at the closing of the Loan,
and all other coverages as may be deemed necessary by Lender from time to time
during the term of the Loan. Any failure by Lender to insist on full compliance
with all of the above insurance requirements at closing does not constitute a
waiver of Lender's right to subsequently require full compliance with these
requirements. All policies required hereunder shall be indicated by evidence of
insurance on the Accord 28 form of certificate (as such form may be updated and
renamed from time to time), naming Lender as loss payee and as additional
insured. Unless Borrower provides Lender with evidence of the insurance coverage
required by this Mortgage, Lender may purchase insurance at Borrower's expense
to protect Lender's interests in the Property and to maintain the insurance
required by this Mortgage. This insurance may, but need not, protect Borrower's
interests. The coverage purchased by Lender may not pay any claim made by
Borrower or any claim that is made against Borrower in connection with the
Property or any required insurance policy. Borrower may later cancel any
insurance purchased by Lender, but only after providing Lender with evidence
that Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Mortgage. If Lender
purchases insurance for the Property or insurance otherwise required by this
Mortgage, Borrower will be responsible for the costs of that insurance,
including interest and other charges imposed by Lender in connection with the
placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or
expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance may be added to the
Indebtedness. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance
Borrower is able to obtain on its own.
In case of loss or damage by fire or other casualty, Borrower shall give
immediate written notice thereof to the insurance carrier(s) and to Lender.
Lender is authorized and empowered to make or file proofs of loss or damage (in
each case only so long as such loss or damage is equal to or greater than
$500,000.00 and to settle and adjust any claim under insurance policies which
insure against such risks, or to direct Borrower, in writing, to agree with the
insurance carrier(s) on the amount to be paid in regard to such loss. The
proceeds of any insurance claim are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to
Lender as further security for the payment of the Indebtedness and performance
of the Obligations and applied as set forth herein.
Borrower shall immediately notify Lender of any action or proceeding
relating to any condemnation or other taking, whether direct or indirect, of the
Property, or part thereof, and Borrower shall appear in and prosecute any such
action or proceeding unless otherwise directed by Lender in writing. Borrower
authorizes Lender, at Lender's option, as attorney-in-fact for Borrower, to
commence, appear in and prosecute, in Lender's or Borrower's name, any action or
proceeding relating to any condemnation or other taking of the Property, whether
direct or
9
indirect, and to settle or compromise any claim in connection with such
condemnation or other taking, provided such claim is for an amount equal to or
greater than $500,000.00. The proceeds of any award, payment or claim for
damages, direct or consequential, in connection with any condemnation or other
taking, whether direct or indirect, of the Property, or part thereof, or for
conveyances in lieu of condemnation, are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to
Lender as further security for the payment of the Indebtedness and performance
of the Obligations and applied as set forth herein.
Provided no Event of Default then exists hereunder, the net insurance
proceeds and net proceeds of any condemnation award (in each case after
deducting only Lender's reasonable costs and expenses, if any, in collecting the
same) shall be made available for the restoration or repair of the Property if,
in Lender's sole judgment (a) restoration or repair and the continued operation
of the Property is economically feasible, as determined by Lender, (b) the value
of Lender's security is not reduced, (c) the loss or condemnation, as
applicable, does not occur in the 6-month period preceding the stated Maturity
Date and Lender's independent consultant certifies that the restoration of the
Property can be completed at least 90 days prior to the Maturity Date, and (d)
Borrower deposits with Lender an amount, in cash, which Lender, in its sole
discretion, determines is necessary, in addition to the net insurance proceeds
or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, to pay in full the
cost of the restoration or repair, including the cost to carry the Property and
make all required payments due under the Loan during the period of restoration
or repair. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be a condition precedent to
any disbursement of insurance proceeds held by Lender hereunder that Lender
shall have approved (x) all plans and specifications for any proposed repair or
restoration, (y) the construction schedule and (z) the architect's and general
contractor's contract for all restoration that exceeds $25,000.00 in the
aggregate. Lender may establish other conditions it deems reasonably necessary
to assure the work is fully completed in a good and workmanlike manner free of
all liens or claims by reason thereof. Borrower's deposits made pursuant to this
paragraph shall be used before the net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any
condemnation award, as applicable, for such restoration or repair. If the net
insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, are
made available for restoration or repair, such work shall be completed by
Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion, and in compliance with all
applicable laws, rules and regulations. At Lender's option, the net insurance
proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, shall be
disbursed pursuant to a construction escrow acceptable to Lender. If following
the final payments for the completion of such restoration or repair there are
any net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as
applicable, remaining, such proceeds shall be paid (i) to Borrower to the extent
Borrower was required to make a deposit pursuant to this paragraph, (ii) then to
fund any shortfall in the Replacement Reserve, (iii) then to Lender to be
applied to the Indebtedness, whether or not due and payable until paid in full,
and (iv) then to Borrower. If an Event of Default then exists, or any of the
conditions set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (d) of this PARAGRAPH 5 have
not been met or satisfied, the net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any
condemnation award, as applicable, shall be applied to the Indebtedness, whether
or not due and payable, with any excess paid to Borrower.
6. PRESERVATION AND MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY. Borrower (a) shall not commit
waste or permit impairment or deterioration of the Property; (b) shall not
abandon the Property; (c) shall keep the Property in good repair and restore or
repair promptly, in a good and workmanlike
10
manner, all or any part of the Property to the equivalent of its original
condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, or such other condition as Lender
may approve in writing, upon any damage or loss thereto, if net insurance
proceeds are made available to cover in whole or in part the costs of such
restoration or repair; (d) shall comply with all laws, ordinances, regulations
and requirements of any governmental body, and all requirements of any documents
applicable to the Property; (e) shall provide for management of the Property by
Borrower or by a property manager satisfactory to Lender pursuant to a contract
in form and substance satisfactory to Lender; (f) shall not take any steps
whatsoever to convert the Property, or any portion thereof, to a condominium or
cooperative form of management; (g) shall not install or permit to be installed
on the Property any underground storage tank or above-ground storage tank
without the written consent of Lender; and (h) shall give notice in writing to
Lender of and, unless otherwise directed in writing by Lender, appear in and
defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the Property, the security
granted by the Loan Documents or the rights or powers of Lender. Neither
Borrower nor any tenant or other person shall remove, demolish or alter any
Improvement or any Fixture, equipment, machinery or appliance in or on the Land
and owned or leased by Borrower except when incident to the replacement of
Fixtures, equipment, machinery and appliances with items of like kind.
7. PROTECTION OF LENDER'S SECURITY; LEASES. If Borrower fails to pay the
Indebtedness or perform the Obligations, or if any action or proceeding is
commenced which affects the Property or Lender, at Lender's option, Lender may
make such appearances, disburse such sums and take such action as Lender deems
necessary, in its sole discretion, to protect the Property or Lender's interest
herein, including entry upon the Property to make repairs and perform
environmental tests and studies. Any amounts disbursed by Lender pursuant to
this PARAGRAPH 7 (including attorneys' costs and expenses), with interest
thereon at the "DEFAULT RATE" (defined in the Note) from the date of
disbursement, shall become additional Indebtedness of Borrower secured by the
Loan Documents and shall be due and payable on demand. Nothing contained in this
PARAGRAPH 7 shall require Lender to incur any expense or take any action
hereunder.
Borrower shall not be authorized to enter into any ground lease of the
Property, without Lender's prior written approval. Borrower shall not, without
Lender's prior written consent, modify, amend, surrender or terminate any Lease,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All Leases of
space in the Property shall be on the form of lease previously approved by
Lender with tenants and for a use acceptable to Lender. All Leases of space in
the Property executed or renewed after the date hereof must be approved by
Lender prior to the execution thereof by Borrower.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower may
enter into a proposed Lease (including the amendment, renewal or extension of an
existing Lease (a "RENEWAL LEASE") without the prior written consent of Lender,
provided such proposed Lease or Renewal Lease (i) provides for rental rates and
terms comparable to existing local market rates and terms (taking into account
the type and quality of the tenant) as of the date such Lease or Renewal Lease
is executed by Borrower (unless, in the case of a Renewal Lease, the rent
payable during such renewal, or a formula or other method to compute such rent,
is provided for in the original Lease), (ii) is an arms-length transaction with
a bona fide, independent third party tenant, (iii) is written on the standard
form of lease previously approved by Lender, (iv) is not for premises greater
than or equal to seven percent (7.0%) of the gross leaseable area of the
11
Property, (v) is not for a rental greater than or equal to seven percent (7.0%)
of the total gross rental revenues of the Property; (vi) shall have an initial
term of not less than three (3) years or greater than ten (10) years, (vii) is
for the same use as the current use of the Property, (viii) shall not contain
any options for renewal or expansion by the tenant thereunder at rental rates
which are either below comparable market levels or less than the rental rates
paid by the tenant during initial lease term; and (ix) shall be to a tenant
which is experienced, creditworthy and reputable. If Lender consents to any new
Lease of space in the Property or the renewal of any existing Lease of space in
the Property, at Lender's request, Borrower shall cause the tenant thereunder to
execute a subordination and attornment agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender contemporaneously with the execution of such Lease.
Borrower expressly understands that any and all new or proposed leases or
Renewal Leases are included in the definition of "LEASE" or "LEASES" as such
terms may be used throughout this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower may
terminate a Lease without Lender's request in the ordinary course of business if
(a) the related tenant is in default and (b) either (x) such Lease is for less
than seven percent (7.0%) of the then currently occupied and rentable square
feet of space at the Property, or (y) Borrower has executed a lease with a
replacement tenant for the premises in question. To the extent Lender's consent
is required under this PARAGRAPH 7, and the lease in question is for less than
25% of both the gross leaseable area of the Property and the total gross rental
revenues of the Property, Borrower shall submit a request to Lender with the
following language prominently displayed at the top and on the cover of any such
request in allcaps, boldface, 14 point type or larger: "IMMEDIATE RESPONSE
REQUIRED, CONSENT DEEMED GIVEN IF NO RESPONSE WITHIN 10 BUSINESS DAYS." If no
response has been received within 10 Business Days of Lender's receipt of such
request, Borrower shall submit a second request to Lender with the following
language prominently displayed at the top and on the cover of any such request
in allcaps, boldface, 14 point type or larger: "IMMEDIATE RESPONSE REQUIRED,
CONSENT DEEMED GIVEN IF NO RESPONSE WITHIN 5 BUSINESS DAYS." If no response has
been received within 5 Business Days of Lender's receipt of such second request,
Lender's consent shall be deemed to be given.
If at the time one or more Disclosure Documents (as hereinafter defined)
are being prepared for a securitization and if requested by Lender, Borrower
shall furnish, or shall cause the applicable tenant to furnish, to Lender
financial data and/or financial statements in accordance with Regulation AB (as
defined in Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB) for any tenant of any Property if, in
connection with a securitization, Lender reasonably expects there to be, with
respect to such tenant or group of affiliated tenants, a concentration within
all of the mortgage loans included or reasonably expected to be included, as
applicable, in such securitization such that such tenant or group of affiliated
tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor (as defined in Item 1101(k));
provided, however, that in the event the related lease does not require the
related tenant to provide the foregoing information, Borrower shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable tenant to furnish such
information, provided however, that Borrower shall be in default hereunder only
for failure to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such tenant to
furnish such information.
8. INSPECTION. Lender and its agents and designees may make or cause to be
made reasonable entries upon and inspections of the Property, including for
performing any environmental inspections and testing of the Property, and
inspections of Borrower's books,
12
records, and contracts at all reasonable times upon reasonable advance notice,
which notice may be given in writing or orally. Borrower shall cooperate with
Lender and its agents and designees with respect to all such inspections,
including any related to the sale or potential sale of all or any portion of the
Loan by Lender and any securitization or potential securitization involving the
Loan.
9. BOOKS AND RECORDS. Borrower shall keep and maintain at all times at
Borrower's address stated above, or such other place as Lender may approve in
writing, complete and accurate books of accounts and records adequate to reflect
correctly the results of the operation of the Property and copies of all written
contracts, Leases and other instruments affecting the Property.
10. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. If required by Lender, Borrower shall furnish to
Lender, within 60 days after the end of each calendar month, until the later to
occur of either (i) the first 12 calendar months following the closing of the
loan (the "LOAN") evidenced by the Note, or (ii) the Loan is securitized as
described in Paragraph 43 below, a monthly unaudited (a) statement of income and
expenses, each in reasonable detail, prepared on a consistent, cash/tax basis in
accordance with sound accounting practices (relating to the real estate
industry) or in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
certified as true and complete by Borrower or its general partner,
manager/managing member or chief financial officer, and (b) a rent roll showing
the name of each tenant, and for each tenant, (i) the space occupied, (ii) the
lease expiration date, (iii) the rent payable, and (iv) the security deposit
being held for such tenant, each in reasonable detail and dated and certified as
true and complete by Borrower or its general partner or chief financial officer.
If required by Lender, Borrower shall furnish to Lender, within 60 days after
the end of each fiscal quarter of the operation of the business of Borrower and
at any other time upon Lender's request, an unaudited (a) balance sheet, (b) a
statement of income and expenses of the Property, and (c) a list of aged
accounts receivables, each in reasonable detail, prepared on a consistent,
cash/tax basis in accordance with sound accounting practices (relating to the
real estate industry) or in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles prepared on a consistent basis and certified as true and complete by
Borrower or its general partner, manager/managing member or chief financial
officer. If required by Lender, Borrower shall also furnish to Lender, and shall
cause each Guarantor (as defined in the Note) to furnish to Lender, within 60
days after the end of each fiscal year of Borrower, an unaudited (a) balance
sheet, (b) a statement of income and expenses and (c) a statement of cash flows,
each in reasonable detail, prepared on a consistent, cash/tax basis in
accordance with sound accounting practices (relating to the real estate
industry) or in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
prepared on a consistent basis and certified as true and complete by Borrower or
its general partner, manager/managing member or chief financial officer and each
Guarantor, as the case may be. In the event that the Loan has an original
principal balance equal to or greater than $20,000,000.00 such annual financial
statements shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant. If
Lender requires audited GAAP-compliant financial statements of Guarantor,
Guarantor will provide such financial statements to Lender within 120 days of
Guarantor's fiscal year-end or within 20 days of the filing of its returns with
the Internal Revenue Service. All of the information required by Lender in this
paragraph must be in a form acceptable to Lender in its absolute and sole
discretion. If Borrower fails to timely furnish Lender with any of the financial
information and reports set forth in this paragraph within the required time
periods, Lender shall have the right, acting in its sole discretion, to hire a
certified public accounting firm acceptable to Lender, to prepare such financial
information and reports, on an audited basis. The costs and expenses of
13
such accounting firm shall be paid by Borrower on demand and, to the extent
advanced by Lender become, with interest thereon from the date advanced by
Lender at the Default Rate, additional Indebtedness of Borrower secured by the
Loan Documents. Additionally, if Borrower fails to timely furnish Lender with
any of the financial information and reports set forth in this paragraph within
the required time periods, Lender shall be entitled to receive a late charge
equal to $500.00 for each financial information and/or report not so furnished
to Lender (the "FINANCIAL LATE CHARGE"). The Financial Late Charge shall be due
and payable by Borrower immediately upon receipt by Borrower of an invoice for
same from Lender. Until paid, the Financial Late Charge shall bear interest at
the Default Rate, and shall be deemed additional Indebtedness of Borrower
secured by the Loan Documents.
If, at the time one or more Disclosure Documents are being prepared for a
securitization, Lender reasonably expects that Borrower alone or Borrower and
one or more affiliates of Borrower collectively, or the Property alone or the
Property and any other parcel(s) of real property, together with improvements
thereon and personal property related thereto, that is "related", within the
meaning of the definition of Significant Obligor of Regulation AB), to the
Property (a "RELATED PROPERTY") collectively, will be a Significant Obligor,
Borrower shall furnish to Lender upon request (i) the selected financial data as
required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB, if Lender reasonably expects
that the principal amount of the Loan, together with any loans made to an
affiliate of Borrower or secured by a Related Property that is included in a
securitization with the Loan (a "RELATED LOAN"), as of the cut-off date for such
securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any
Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such securitization and at any time
during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a securitization
does, equal or exceed ten percent (10%) of the aggregate principal amount of all
mortgage loans included or reasonably expected to be included, as applicable, in
the securitization or (ii) the financial statements as required under Item
1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB, if Lender reasonably expects that the principal
amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for
such securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with
any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such securitization and at any time
during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a securitization
does, equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of
all mortgage loans included or reasonably expected to be included, as
applicable, in the securitization. Such financial data or financial statements
shall be furnished to Lender (A) within ten (10) Business Days after notice from
Lender in connection with the preparation of Disclosure Documents for the
securitization, (B) not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal
quarter of Borrower and (C) not later than seventy-five (75) days after the end
of each fiscal year of Borrower for any period for which a filing pursuant to
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in connection with or relating to the
securitization (an "EXCHANGE ACT FILING") is not required. As used herein,
"REGULATION AB" shall mean Regulation AB under the Securities Act of 1933 and
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended). As used herein, "DISCLOSURE
DOCUMENT" shall mean a prospectus, prospectus supplement, private placement
memorandum, or similar offering memorandum or offering circular, in each case in
preliminary or final form, used to offer securities in connection with a
securitization.

proceeding by any party caused or threatened in connection with any Hazardous
Substances on the Property, or the failure or alleged failure of the Property to

authorization, decision, order, injunction or decree and/or other governmental
directive or requirement, as well as common law, which pertains or relates to

tanks) and shall include, without limitation, the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA"), the

Documents for any act or events occurring or obligations arising prior
to or simultaneously with the closing of such TIC Assumption
(excluding payment of the principal amount of the Note and interest
accrued thereon) and the transferring Borrower executes, without any

(ix) if the Loan has previously been securitized pursuant to
PARAGRAPH 43, Lender shall have received evidence in writing from the
rating agencies to the effect the proposed transfer will not result in
a downgrade, qualification, reduction or withdrawal of any rating
initially assigned or to be assigned to any securities issued in
connection with the Loan; and
(x) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any of the provisions of the
Loan Documents to the contrary, a Transferee must meet all of the

as such pronouncement may be modified from time to time (which
number is thirty five [35] as of the date hereof);

to by Lender or permitted under this Mortgage, and insuring that fee
simple title to the Property is vested in the Transferee;
(v) Borrower executes and delivers to Lender, without any cost or
expense to Lender, a release of Lender, its officers, directors,

binding upon the Transferee;
(vi) subject to the provisions of PARAGRAPH 11 of the Note, such
Assumption is not construed so as to relieve Borrower of any personal
liability
25
under the Note or any of the Loan Documents for any act or events
occurring or obligations arising prior to or simultaneously with the
closing of such Assumption (excluding payment of the principal amount
of the Note and interest accrued thereon) and Borrower executes,

rating agencies to the effect the proposed transfer will not result in

initially assigned or to be assigned to any securities issued in
connection with the Loan.
Any such Assumption shall not be construed as to relieve any current

the initial Borrower hereunder shall have the right, without Lender's
consent, to transfer non-managing limited liability company interests in
such initial Borrower to one or more Persons (each, a "Member Transferee"),

voluntary or involuntary, made an assignment for the benefit of creditors
or taken advantage of any insolvency act, or any act for the benefit of
debtors;
4) No Member Transferee may hold more than 7.5% of the interest
in the Property (determined by multiplying the initial Borrower's interest
in the Property by the Member Transferee's interest in such initial
Borrower);
5) Triple Net Properties, LLC shall remain the sole manager of
initial Borrower; and
6) Not less than 10 days prior to such transfer, Borrower shall

Principal Amount, and all of Lender's out of pocket expenses incurred in
connection with such transfer, the approval by a rating agency of the
proposed transferee, the proposed transferee's continued compliance with
the covenants set forth in this Mortgage, including, without limitation,
the covenants contained in PARAGRAPH 17, or such other conditions as Lender
shall determine in its sole discretion to be in the interest of Lender. All
of Lender's out-of-pocket expenses incurred shall be payable by Borrower
whether or not Lender consents to such assumption. Lender shall not be
required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any
increased risk
27
of default hereunder in order to declare the Note immediately due and
payable upon Borrower's prohibited sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant,
bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer of the Property
without Lender's consent. This provision shall apply to every sale,
conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or
transfer of the Property regardless of whether voluntary or not, or whether
or not Lender has consented to any previous sale, conveyance, mortgage,
grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer of the
Property.
(g) LOCKOUT PERIODS.
(i) Lender may send written notice (the "SECURITIZATION NOTICE")
to Borrower notifying Borrower that Lender has initiated contact with
(A) any rating agency concerning the securitization of the Loan or (B)
any purchaser or investor regarding the sale of the Loan. Once a
Securitization Note has been given, Borrower can no longer transfer
any interest in the Property; provided, however, that notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that Borrower has been provided with all
the information concerning any proposed Tenant in Common as a
Transferee as described above in SUBPARAGRAPH 15(C)(II) prior to the
receipt of the Securitization Notice, Borrower shall have thirty (30)
days from the date of the receipt of the Securitization Notice to
complete all the requirements set forth in this PARAGRAPH 15 necessary
to transfer a Tenant in Common interest hereunder. In the event such
transfer is not completed within said thirty (30) day period, Borrower
shall be prohibited from trying to add the proposed Tenant in Common
or transferring any interest to any other Tenant in Common for six (6)
months from the date of the Securitization Notice. If the Loan is not
securitized or sold within six (6) months from the date of the
Securitization Notice, then Borrower may again try to admit a new
Tenant in Common subject to Lender providing a subsequent
Securitization Notice in the event Lender later initiates contact with
any rating agency concerning the securitization of the Loan or
initializes contact with a potential whole loan purchaser or investor
and the thirty (30) day period and six (6) month period described
above shall commence again. Any subsequent approval and admittance of
a new Tenant in Common shall comply with the terms and conditions of
this PARAGRAPH 15.
(ii) Lender shall have no obligation to provide a Securitization
Notice if an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and in such event
Borrower shall have no right to add an additional Tenant in Common or
transfer any interest in the Property.
16. NO ADDITIONAL LIENS. Borrower covenants not to execute any mortgage,
security agreement, assignment of leases and rents or other agreement granting a
lien (except the liens granted to Lender by the Loan Documents) or, except as
set forth in PARAGRAPH 2 above, take or fail to take any other action which
would result in a lien against the interest of Borrower in the Property without
the prior written consent of Lender.
17. SINGLE ASSET ENTITY. Borrower and any other entity required by Lender
to be a Special Purpose Entity pursuant to the provisions of this PARAGRAPH 17
or otherwise (a "REQUIRED SPE")
28
shall not hold or acquire, directly or indirectly, any ownership interest (legal
or equitable) in any real or personal property other than the Property, or
become a shareholder of or a member or partner in any entity which acquires any
property other than the Property, until such time as the Indebtedness has been
fully repaid and all Obligations are satisfied. Borrower's and any Required
SPE's articles of incorporation, partnership agreement or operating agreement,
as applicable, (w) as to Borrower, limit its purpose to the acquisition,
ownership, operation and disposition of the Property, and as to any Required

subject to a security interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code
(collectively, the "COLLATERAL"), and Borrower hereby, pursuant to the terms of
this Mortgage, grants Lender a security interest in the Collateral. Any
reproduction of this Mortgage or of any other security agreement or financing
statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement. In addition, Borrower
authorizes Lender to file on its behalf any financing statements, as well as
extensions, renewals and amendments thereof, and reproductions of this Mortgage
in such form as Lender may require to perfect the security interest in respect
to said items. In addition, Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to Lender any

a security interest with respect to said items. Borrower shall pay all costs of
filing such financing statements and any extensions, renewals, amendments and

acts as Lender deems necessary in order to establish and maintain valid,
attached and perfected first security interests in the Collateral in favor of
Lender, free and clear of all liens, claims and rights of third parties
whatsoever. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender at any time, and from
time to time, to execute and file in any jurisdiction any initial financing
statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral (i) as all
assets of the Borrower or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any

identification number issued to the Borrower, and (ii) in the case of a
financing statement filed as a fixture filing or indicating Collateral as
as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut, a sufficient description of real
property to which the Collateral relates. Borrower agrees to furnish any such
information to Lender promptly upon request. Borrower further ratifies and
affirms its authorization for any financing statements and/or amendments
thereto, executed and filed by Lender in any jurisdiction prior to the date of
this Mortgage. In addition, Borrower covenants to: (w) obtain acknowledgments
from any bailee holding Collateral; (x) obtain consents from any letter of
credit issuers; (y) notify and take steps to perfect Lender's security interest
in any Commercial Tort Claims; and (z) take any action necessary to vest control
in Lender of any of Borrower's Electronic Chattel Paper. If an Event of Default
shall occur, Lender, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may
have, shall
34
have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and
remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial
Code, including without limitation, the right to take possession of the
Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may
deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon
request or demand of Lender, Borrower shall, at its expense, assemble the
Collateral and make it available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to
Lender and Borrower. Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all
expenses, including legal expenses and attorneys' fees, incurred or paid by
Lender in protecting the interest in the Collateral and in enforcing the rights
hereunder with respect to the Collateral. Any notice of sale, disposition or
other intended action by Lender, with respect to the Collateral, sent to
Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) days prior
to such action, shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Borrower.
Capitalized words and phrases used herein in this Paragraph 19 and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in
either: (i) Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in force in Illinois at
the time the financing statement was filed by Lender, or (ii) Article 9 as in
force at any relevant time in Illinois, the meaning to be ascribed thereto with
respect to any particular item of property shall be that under the more
encompassing of the two definitions.

Guarantor (and in the case of an involuntary petition in bankruptcy, which
petition is not discharged within sixty (60) days of its filing), or a
custodian, receiver or trustee for any of the Property is appointed, or
Borrower or any Guarantor makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors,
or any of them are adjudged insolvent by any state or federal court of
competent jurisdiction, or an attachment or execution is levied against any
of the Property (individually or collectively, a "BANKRUPTCY DEFAULT"),
provided, however, in the event that Borrower is comprised of more than one
Tenants in Common and pursuant to a buy/sell provision in the applicable
TIC Agreement, the defaulting Tenant in Common transfers its interest in
the Property to a non-defaulting Tenant in Common within sixty (60) days,
no Bankruptcy Default shall be deemed to have occurred; or
(g) the occurrence of an "EVENT OF DEFAULT" under and as defined in
any other Loan Document; or
(h) Borrower is in default in the payment of any indebtedness (other
than the Indebtedness) and such default is declared and is not cured within
the time, if any, specified therefor in any agreement governing the same;
or
(i) any statement, report or certificate made or delivered to Lender
by Borrower or any Guarantor is not materially true and complete, or any
representation or warranty
36
made or delivered to Lender by Borrower or any Guarantor is not materially
true and correct; or
(j) seizure or forfeiture of the Property, or any portion thereof, or
Borrower's interest therein, resulting from criminal wrongdoing or other
unlawful action of Borrower, its affiliates, or any tenant in the Property
under any federal, state or local law; or
(k) failure of Borrower, within 30 days after notice and demand, to
satisfy each and every Obligation, other than those set forth in the
subparagraphs above; provided, however, if such failure to satisfy such
Obligation cannot by its nature be cured within 30 days, and if Borrower
commences to cure such failure promptly after written notice thereof and
thereafter diligently pursues the curing thereof (and then in all events
cures such failure within 60 days after the original notice thereof),
Borrower shall not be in default hereunder during such period of diligent
curing;
(l) the termination of the Property Manager or modification or
termination of the Management Agreement or TIC Agreement without the prior
written consent of the Lender; or
(m) in the event that Borrower is comprised of more than one Tenants
in Common, the filing by a Tenant in Common of an action to partition all
or any portion of the Property or any action to compel any sale thereof
(individually or collectively, a "PARTITION DEFAULT"), provided, however,
if pursuant to a buy/sell provision in the applicable TIC Agreement, the
defaulting Tenant in Common transfers its interest in the Property to a
non-defaulting Tenant in Common within sixty (60) days, no Partition
Default shall be deemed to have occurred.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Indebtedness, at the option
of the Lender, shall become immediately due and payable without notice to
Borrower; and Lender shall be entitled to immediately exercise and pursue any or
all of the rights and remedies contained in this Mortgage and any other Loan
Document or otherwise available at law or in equity. Each remedy provided in the
Loan Documents is distinct and cumulative to all other rights or remedies under
the Loan Documents or afforded by law or equity, and may be exercised
concurrently, independently, or successively, in any order whatsoever.
21. ENTRY; FORECLOSURE; REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, (a) Borrower, upon demand of Lender, shall forthwith surrender to

or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may enter and take possession
of all or any part of the Property, and may exclude Borrower and its agents and
employees wholly therefrom, and may have joint access with Borrower to the
books, papers and accounts of Borrower; and (b) if Borrower shall for any reason
fail to surrender or deliver the Property or any part thereof after such demand
by Lender, Lender may obtain a judgment or decree conferring on Lender the right
to immediate possession or requiring the delivery to Lender of the Property, and
Borrower specifically consents to the entry of such judgment or decree. Upon
every such entering upon or taking of possession, Lender may hold, store, use,
operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof.
Lender
37
shall have no liability for any loss, damage, injury, cost or expense resulting
from any action or omission by it or its representatives which was taken or
omitted in good faith.
Upon any foreclosure sale, Lender may bid for and purchase the Property and
shall be entitled to apply all or part of the Indebtedness as a credit to the
purchase price.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, then, without notice to or the
consent of Borrower, Lender shall be entitled to immediately exercise or pursue
or cause to be exercised or pursued any or all of the rights and remedies
contained in this Mortgage or in any other Loan Document or otherwise available

(g) Apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific
performance of this Mortgage, an injunction against the violation hereof
and/or the appointment of a receiver; and
(h) To foreclose this Mortgage by judicial or non-judicial process.
The foregoing remedies shall be cumulative of any other nonjudicial
remedies available to Lender under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, at
law or in equity. Proceeding with a request or receiving a judgment for legal
relief shall not be or be deemed to be an election of remedies or bar any
available nonjudicial remedy of Lender.
22. EXPENDITURES AND EXPENSES. Borrower acknowledges and confirms that
Lender shall impose certain administrative processing and/or commitment fees in
connection with (a) the extension, renewal, modification, amendment and
termination of its loans, (b) the release or substitution of collateral
therefor, (c) obtaining certain consents, waivers and approvals with respect to
the Property, or (d) the review of any Lease or proposed Lease or the
preparation or review of any subordination, non-disturbance and attornment
agreement. In addition, in any civil action to foreclose the lien hereof or
otherwise enforce Lender's rights, there shall be allowed and included as
additional Indebtedness in the order or judgment for foreclosure and sale or
other order all expenditures and expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on
behalf of Lender
38
including attorneys' fees, costs and expenses, receiver's fees, costs and
expenses, appraiser's fees, engineers' fees, outlays for documentary and expert
evidence, stenographers' charges, publication costs, and costs (which may be
estimates as to items to be expended after entry of said order or judgment) of
procuring all such abstracts of title, title searches and examination, title
insurance policies, Torrens' Certificates and similar data and assurances with
respect to the title as Lender may deem reasonably necessary either to prosecute
such civil action or to evidence to bidders at any sale which may be had
pursuant to such order or judgment the true condition of the title to, or the
value of, the Property (all said expenditures and expenses are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "REIMBURSABLE EXPENSES"). All Reimbursable
Expenses, and such costs, expenses and fees as may be incurred by Lender at any
time or times hereafter in the protection of the Property, in enforcing the
Obligations, and/or the maintenance of the lien established by any of the Loan
Documents, including accountants' and attorneys' fees, costs and expenses in any
advice, litigation, or proceeding affecting the Loan Documents or the Property,
whether instituted by Lender, Borrower or any other party, or in preparation for
the commencement or defense of any action or proceeding or threatened action or
proceeding, shall be immediately due and payable to Lender by Borrower, and, to
the extent such services relate to the Hazardous Substances Indemnification
Agreement of even date herewith from Borrower and Guarantors in favor of Lender,
by Borrower and Guarantors, with interest thereon at the Default Rate set forth
in the Note, and shall be secured by the Loan Documents. In addition, Borrower
shall be liable for the payment of all commissions and brokerage fees relating
to the Loan.
23. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS OF FORECLOSURE SALE. The proceeds of any
foreclosure sale of the Property shall be distributed and applied in the order
of priority set forth in the Note with the excess, if any, being applied to any
parties entitled thereto as their rights may appear.
24. APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER OR MORTGAGEE IN POSSESSION. If an Event of
Default is continuing or if Lender shall have accelerated the Indebtedness,
Lender, upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled
as a matter of strict right, without notice, and without regard to the occupancy
or value of any security for the Indebtedness, without any showing of fraud or
mismanagement on the part of Borrower or the insolvency of any party bound for
its payment, without regard to the existence of a declaration that the
Indebtedness, or any portion thereof, is immediately due and payable, and
without regard to the filing of a notice of default, to the appointment of a
receiver or the immediate appointment of Lender to take possession of and to
operate the Property, and to collect and apply the rents, issues, profits and
revenues thereof, and Borrower consents to such appointment.
25. FORBEARANCE BY LENDER NOT A WAIVER. Any forbearance by Lender in
exercising any right or remedy under any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise
afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of
any right or remedy. Lender's acceptance of payment of any sum secured by any of
the Loan Documents after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of
Lender's right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so
secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment. The
procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by
Lender shall not be a waiver of Lender's right to accelerate the maturity of the
Indebtedness, nor shall Lender's receipt of any awards, proceeds or damages
under PARAGRAPH 5 hereof operate to cure or waive Borrower's default in payment
or sums secured by any of the Loan Documents. With respect to all Loan
Documents, only waivers made in writing by Lender shall be effective against
Lender.
39
26. WAIVER OF STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS. Borrower hereby waives the right to
assert any statute of limitations as a bar to the enforcement of the lien
created by any of the Loan Documents or to any action brought to enforce the
Note or any other obligation secured by any of the Loan Documents.
27. WAIVER OF HOMESTEAD AND REDEMPTION. Borrower hereby waives all rights

shall supersede any limitations on Borrower's liability under any of the Loan
Documents.

OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE DECLARED TO BE SEVERABLE.

incurred in releasing this Mortgage and any financing statements related hereto.
37. COVENANTS RUNNING WITH THE LAND. All covenants, conditions, warranties,

40. CHANGES IN THE LAWS REGARDING TAXATION. If any law is amended, enacted
or adopted after the date of this Mortgage which deducts the Indebtedness from
the value of the Property for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a tax,
either directly or indirectly, on the Indebtedness of Lender's interest in the
Property, Borrower will pay such tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if
any. In the event Lender is advised by counsel chosen by it that the payment of
such tax or interest and penalties by Borrower would be unlawful or taxable to
Lender or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury, then in any
such event, Lender shall have the option, by written notice of not less than
forty-five (45) days, to declare the Indebtedness immediately due and payable.
41. EXCULPATION. This Mortgage and other Loan Documents and all of
Borrower's obligations hereunder and thereunder are subject to the provisions of

delivering any such information to any third party, and Borrower and each
Guarantor, on behalf of themselves and their successors and assigns, hereby
release and discharge Lender from any and all liability, claims, damages, or
causes of action, arising out of, connected with or incidental to the delivery
of any such information to any third party.

the Note, this Mortgage and/or other Loan Documentation including, without any
limitation, with respect to any whole loan sale or securitization of the Loan
shall be deemed a "SECONDARY MARKET TRANSACTION".
44. ACTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS. Lender has the right to appear in and defend
any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property and to bring any
action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Borrower, which Lender, in
its discretion, decides should be brought to protect their respective interests
in the Property. Lender shall, at its option, be subrogated to the lien of any
mortgage or other security instrument discharged in whole or in part by the
Indebtedness, and any such subrogation rights shall constitute additional
security for the payment of the Indebtedness.

other Loan Documents are for the benefit of Borrower and Lender and shall not
inure to the benefit of any third party (other than any successor or assignee of
