ARTICLE II. GENERAL TERMS Section 2.1 Loan Commitment; Disbursement to Borrower. 2.1.1 Agreement to Lend and Borrow. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender hereby agrees to make and Borrower hereby agrees to accept Advances in respect of the Project Loan as more particularly set forth in Section 2.10. 2.1.2 No Reborrowings. Any amount borrowed and repaid hereunder in respect of the Building Loan may not be reborrowed. 2.1.3 The Note, Mortgage and Loan Documents. The Project Loan shall be evidenced by the Project Loan Note and secured by the Project Loan Mortgage, the Project Loan Assignment of Leases and the other Project Loan Documents. 2.1.4 Use of Proceeds. Borrower hereby agrees that Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Project Loan to pay or reimburse itself for Project-Loan Costs actually incurred in connection with the construction of the Project Improvements if and to the extent that such Project-Loan Costs are reflected in the Project Loan Budget, subject to reallocation pursuant to Sections 2.1.6 and 2.1.7 hereof, and 5.1.33 of the Building Loan Agreement (or other reallocations approved by Lender in its sole discretion). 2.1.5 Advances. The Project Loan Budget shall reflect, by category and line item, the purposes and amounts for which funds to be advanced by Lender under this Agreement are to be used. Lender shall not be required to Advance funds hereunder for any category or line item of Project Loan Costs in excess of the amount specified for such line item or category in the Project Loan Budget, subject to Sections 2.1.6 and 2.1.7 hereof and 5.1.33 of the Building Loan Agreement (or other reallocations approved by Lender in its sole discretion). No Advances shall be made to pay for Affiliate Fees. 2.1.6 Cost Overruns. If Borrower becomes aware of any change in actual or projected Project Loan Costs which will increase any one or more category or line item of costs reflected in the Project Loan Budget, Borrower shall immediately notify Lender in writing and promptly submit to Lender for its approval a revised Project Loan Budget. Any reallocation of any category or line items in the Project Loan Budget in connection with cost overruns shall be subject to Lender’s approval in Lender’s sole discretion except as set forth in Sections 2.1.7 hereof and 5.1.33 of the Building Loan Agreement, provided, however, under no circumstances shall Borrower be permitted, or Lender obligated to approve, the reallocation of line items from

the Building Loan Budget to the Project Loan Budget. Lender shall have no obligation to make any further Advances unless and until the revised Project Loan Budget so submitted by Borrower is approved by Lender and Borrower has satisfied its obligations with respect to any resulting Shortfall under Section 2.1.10. Lender reserves the right to approve or disapprove any revised Project Loan Budget in its sole and absolute discretion (except with respect to reallocations in accordance with Sections 2.1.7 and 5.1.33). 2.1.7 Contingency Reserve. (a) Following the satisfaction of the Initial Advance Conditions, and subject to the prior approval of Lender in its sole discretion, Borrower may revise the Project Loan Budget to move amounts available under any Line Item that are designated to “Contingency” to other Line Items in the Project Loan Budget. In no event may the Contingency Line Item of the Building Loan Budget be reallocated to any Line Item in the Project Loan Budget. Provided no Event of Default exists and with Lender’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), after Completion of the Improvements, Borrower may draw amounts available under the Contingency Line Item of the Project Loan Budget to fund Shortfalls in monthly interest due, which amounts shall be deposited in the Interest Reserve. Such drawing shall be in addition to any Interest Reserve Line Item advanced under the Project Loan pursuant to Section 2.14.10 hereof. (b) Following the occurrence of Final Completion, Lender shall reasonably cooperate with Borrower to amend the Project Loan Budget, Building Loan Budget, Project Loan Documents and Building Loan Documents such that: (x) the Building Loan Budget is amended to remove the amounts then available under the Building Loan Budget either in the contingency Line Item or as cost savings from other Line Items (the “Contingency Excess”) and the Building Loan Amount is reduced by the Contingency Excess; and (y) the contingency line item of the Project Loan Budget and the Project Loan Amount are increased by the Contingency Excess. Borrower and Lender shall execute and deliver such documents, certificates and instruments as may be reasonably required to effect the above described re-allocation, including, without limitation, the filing of an amended Section 22 Affidavit and the modification of the Project Loan Documents and Building Loan Documents to reflect the respective changes in the Project Loan Amount and the Building Loan Amount and Borrower shall obtain such other evidence as Lender may reasonably request to confirm that none of the foregoing shall adversely impact the validity or priority of its security interests in the Property or otherwise adversely impact its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents including, without limitation, appropriate endorsements to the title insurance policy. Borrower shall pay any and all title insurance, recording and other charges and all reasonable costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by Lender in connection with the foregoing. 2.1.8 Intentionally Omitted. 2.1.9 Amount of Advances. In no event shall any Advance exceed the full amount of Project Loan Costs theretofore paid or to be paid with the proceeds of such Advance plus any Project Loan Costs incurred by Borrower through the date of the Draw Request for such Advance minus (i) the applicable Retainage for each Contract and Subcontract, and (ii) the aggregate amount of any Advances previously made by Lender. It is further understood that the

Retainage described above is intended to provide a contingency fund protecting Lender against failure of Borrower or Guarantor to fulfill any obligations under the Loan Documents, and that Lender may charge amounts to pay for Project Loan Costs against such Retainage in the event Lender is required or elects to expend funds to cure any Default or Event of Default, in either instance, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. No Advance of the Loan by Lender shall be deemed to be an approval or acceptance by the Lender of any work performed thereon or the materials furnished with respect thereto. 2.1.10 Loan-In-Balance. As used herein, a “Shortfall” shall mean, as to any Line Item in the Development Budget as of any date, the amount determined by Lender, in Lender’s sole but reasonable judgment, by which (A) the cost of completing or satisfying such Line Item, exceeds (B) the remaining undisbursed portion of the Loan allocated to such Line Item in the Development Budget plus any sums deposited with Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1.10 to pay for such Line Item and not previously disbursed plus any Reserve Funds to the extent such Reserve Funds are available hereunder for the payment of such Line Item. From time to time and at any time during the Construction Period, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify Borrower that it has determined a Shortfall exists as to any one or more Line Items. If Lender at any time shall so notify Borrower, Borrower shall, at its option within five (5) days of Lender’s notification as aforesaid, either: (i) deposit with Lender an amount equal to such Shortfall, which Lender disburse to Borrower to the satisfaction of the costs of such Line Item prior to advancing any further Loan proceeds on account of such costs; (ii) post an irrevocable standby Letter of Credit in the amount of such Shortfall, in favor of Lender; (iii) to the extent permitted under Sections 2.1.7 hereof and 5.1.33 of the Building Loan Agreement, and following the satisfaction of the Initial Advance Conditions allocate the Contingency Reserve, with respect to the Line Item(s) in question, to the Shortfall, and provided, further that the amount of the remaining Contingency Reserve for such Line Item(s) (following the allocation to the Shortfall) is sufficient for such Line Item(s), as determined by Lender in its sole discretion; and (iv) to the extent permitted under Section 5.1.33 of the Building Loan Agreement, and then only following the satisfaction of the Initial Advance Conditions, reallocate cost savings from the Development Budget in respect of the Loan (or other reallocations which are approved by Lender, in its sole discretion) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, but only to the extent such cost savings can be allocated to the related Line Items. Borrower hereby agrees that Lender shall have a lien on and security interest in, for the benefit of Lender, any sums deposited pursuant to clause (i) above and that Borrower shall have no right to withdraw any such sums except for the payment of the aforesaid costs as approved by Lender. Lender shall have no obligation to make any further Advances of proceeds of the Loan as to any Line Item until the sums required to be deposited pursuant to clause (i) above as to such Line Item have been exhausted, or until Borrower has posted an irrevocable standby Letter of Credit pursuant to clause (iii) above, as the case may be, and, in any such case, the Loan is back “in balance”. Any such sums not used as provided in said clause (i) shall be released to Borrower when and to the extent that Lender reasonably determines that the amount thereof is more than the excess, if any, of the remaining Project-Related Costs over the undisbursed balance of the Loan, provided, however, that should an Event of Default occur, Lender, in its sole discretion, may apply such amounts either to the remaining Project-Related Costs or to the immediate reduction of outstanding principal and/or interest under the Note.

2.1.11 Quality of Work. No Advance or any portion thereof shall be made with respect to defective work or to any contractor that has performed work that is defective and that has not been cured, as confirmed by the report of the Construction Consultant, but Lender may disburse all or part of any Advance before the sum shall become due if Lender believes it advisable to do so, and all such Advances or parts thereof shall be deemed to have been made pursuant to this Agreement. 2.1.12 Required Equity Funds. All Required Equity Funds shall be contributed (i.e., expended by Borrower and invested by Borrower in the Property, for Project Related Costs set forth on the approved Development Budget) before the Closing Date. 2.1.13 Trust Fund. Pursuant to Section 13 of the New York Lien Law, Borrower shall receive the Advances hereunder and shall hold the right to receive the Advances as a trust fund to be applied first for the purpose of paying the Costs of the Improvements and shall apply the Advances first to the payment of the Cost of the Improvements on the Property before using any part of the total of the same for any other purpose. 2.1.14 Final Project Report and Development Budget. The provisions of Section 2.1.14 of the Building Loan Agreement are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. 2.1.15 Miscellaneous. (a) The making of an Advance by Lender shall not constitute Lender’s approval or acceptance of the construction theretofore completed. Lender’s inspection and approval of the Plans and Specifications, the construction of the Project Improvements, or the workmanship and materials used therein, shall impose no liability of any kind on Lender, the sole obligation of Lender as the result of such inspection and approval being to make the Advances if and to the extent, required by this Agreement. (b) ALL POTENTIAL LIENORS ARE HEREBY CAUTIONED TO EXERCISE SOUND BUSINESS JUDGMENT IN THE EXTENSION OF CREDIT TO BORROWER. NO POTENTIAL LIENOR SHOULD EXPECT LENDER TO MAKE ADVANCES OF THE LOAN IN AMOUNTS AND AT TIMES SUCH THAT IT WILL NOT BE NECESSARY FOR EACH SUCH POTENTIAL LIENOR TO EXERCISE SOUND BUSINESS JUDGMENT IN THE EXTENSION OF CREDIT TO BORROWER. MOREOVER, ALL POTENTIAL LIENORS ARE REMINDED THAT SUBDIVISION (3) OF SECTION 13 OF THE NEW YORK LIEN LAW PROVIDES THAT “NOTHING IN THIS SUBDIVISION SHALL BE CONSIDERED AS IMPOSING UPON THE LENDER ANY OBLIGATION TO SEE THE PROPER APPLICATION OF SUCH ADVANCES BY THE OWNER,” AND LENDER DOES NOT IMPOSE SUCH AN OBLIGATION ON ITSELF. Section 2.2 Interest Rate. 2.2.1 Interest Rate. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue from (and include) the Closing Date to but excluding the Maturity Date at the Interest Rate calculated as set forth in Section 2.2.2 below.

2.2.2 Interest Calculation. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on the Interest Rate and a three hundred sixty (360) day year by (c) the outstanding principal balance. 2.2.3 Default Rate In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, all accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Loan and any other amounts due pursuant to the Loan Documents, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein. 2.2.4 Usury Savings. This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding. Section 2.3 Loan Payment. 2.3.1 Monthly Debt Service Payments. Borrower shall pay to Lender (a) on the Closing Date, an amount equal to interest only on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan from and including the Closing Date up to and including December 31, 2007, which interest shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2 hereof, and (b) on each Payment Date commencing on the Payment Date occurring in February, 2008, and thereafter up to and including the Maturity Date, Borrower shall make a payment to Lender equal to the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount, which payments shall be applied first to interest due for the related Interest Period at the Interest Rate, for such related Interest Period and then to the principal amount of the Loan due in accordance with this Agreement, and lastly, to any other amounts due and unpaid pursuant to the Loan Documents hereto. Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that, on the 15th calendar day of the month preceding each Payment Date during the Construction Term: (a) if and to the extent undrawn funds remain available for Advance under the Project Loan from the Interest Reserve Line Item of the Project Loan Budget, and provided that that no Event of Default or monetary Default then exists under any of the Loan Documents or would occur as a result of such Advance, the Monthly Debt Service Amount then due and owing shall be advanced by Lender by a Advance under Interest Reserve Line Item of the Project Loan Budget; and (b) if no amount remains available under the Interest Reserve Line

Item but and to the extent Interest Reserve Funds are on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account, and no Event of Default or monetary Default then exists under any of the Loan Documents, the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount then due and payable shall be paid by application of funds from the Interest Reserve Account. Borrower and Lender acknowledge and agree that Lender may automatically make an Advance or apply Interest Reserve Funds on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account on each Payment Date occurring during the Construction Term, in either instance, in accordance with this Section 2.3.1, without the need for Borrower to submit a Draw Request or otherwise request such an Advance or application. 2.3.2 Payments Generally. The first Interest Period hereunder shall commence on and include the Closing Date and shall end on and include December 31, 2007. Thereafter each Interest Period shall commence on the first (1st) day of each calendar month during the term of this Agreement and shall end on and include the final calendar date of such calendar month. For purposes of making payments hereunder, but not for purposes of calculating Interest Periods, if the day on which such payment is due is not a Business Day, then amounts due on such date shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day and with respect to payments of principal due on the Maturity Date, interest shall be payable at the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, through and including the day immediately preceding such Maturity Date. All amounts due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, defense or any other deduction whatsoever. 2.3.3 Payment on Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. 2.3.4 Late Payment Charge.

If for any reason Borrower prepays the Loan on a date other than a Payment Date, Borrower shall pay Lender, in addition to the Debt, all interest which would have accrued on the amount of the Loan through and including the Payment Date next occurring following the date of such prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, commencing after the Payment Date three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date (the “Open Period Date”), or on any Payment Date thereafter (or on any date thereafter, provided that interest is paid through the next Payment Date), Borrower may, at its option, prepay the Debt in whole, but not in part, without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium. 2.4.2 Mandatory Prepayments. On the next occurring Payment Date following the date on which Lender actually receives any Net Proceeds, if Lender is not obligated to make such Net Proceeds available to Borrower for the Restoration of the Property or otherwise remit such Net Proceeds to Borrower pursuant to Section 6.4 of the Building Loan Agreement, Borrower shall prepay or authorize Lender to apply Net Proceeds as a prepayment of all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan together with accrued interest through the end of the related Interest Period and any other sums due hereunder in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds; provided, however, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may apply such Net Proceeds to the Debt (until paid in full) in any order or priority in its sole discretion. Other than following an Event of Default, no Yield Maintenance Premium shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4.2. 2.4.3 Prepayments After Default. If following an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the Debt is tendered by Borrower or otherwise recovered by Lender, such tender or recovery shall be (a) made on the next occurring Payment Date together with the Monthly Debt Service Payment and (b) deemed a voluntary prepayment by Borrower in violation of the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section 2.4.1 hereof and Borrower shall pay, in addition to the Debt, an amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Default Premium. 2.4.4 Prepayment Prior to Defeasance Expiration Date.

Lender shall notify Borrower of the amount and the basis of determination of the required prepayment consideration. If any notice of prepayment is given, the Debt shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date. Lender shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the Debt unless it is accompanied by the prepayment consideration due in connection therewith. If for any reason Borrower prepays the Loan on a date other than a Payment Date, Borrower shall pay Lender, in addition to the Debt, all interest which would have accrued on the amount of the Loan through and including the Payment Date next occurring following the date of such prepayment. 2.4.5 Application of Prepayments to Components.

reduced to zero. Subsequent to any Event of Default, any payment of principal from whatever source may be applied by Lender between the various components of the Loan in Lender’s sole discretion. Section 2.5 Defeasance. 2.5.1 Voluntary Defeasance (a) Provided no Event of Default shall then exist, Borrower shall have the right at any time after the Defeasance Expiration Date and prior to the date voluntary prepayments are permitted under Section 2.4.1 hereof to voluntarily defease all, but not part, of the Loan by and upon satisfaction of the following conditions (such event being a “Defeasance Event”): (i) Borrower shall provide not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lender specifying the Payment Date (the “Defeasance Date”) on which the Defeasance Event is to occur; (ii) Borrower shall pay to Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal balance of the Loan to and including the Defeasance Date.

Except as expressly provided for below, the amount of the Final Advance shall be equal to the sum of: (a) any Retainage not previously released and advanced to Borrower; plus (b) the amount of any Punch List and Deferred Maintenance Reserve Deposit not funded pursuant to the Building Loan Agreement; plus (c) the positive difference, if any, between, (i) the Building Loan Amount and (ii) all amounts previously Advanced under the Building Loan (including the amounts described in clauses (a) and (b) of the sentence). The portion of the Final Advance described in clause (c) of the foregoing sentence is referred to herein as the “Project Loan Earn Out Advance” and the corresponding portion of the Final Building Loan Advance is referred to herein as the “Building Loan Earn Out Advance” and together with the Project Loan Earn Out Advance, the “Earn Out Advances”. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided for herein, the Earn Out Advances shall be reduced, pro rata, but not below $0.00, if and to the extent necessary for the Required Ratios at Completion to be achieved following the Final Advances. In addition, if the Required Ratios at Completion cannot be achieved even if the Earn Out Advances are reduced to $0.00, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to apply any deposits held by Lender pursuant to the Rate Lock Agreement and any Interest Reserve Funds to the payment of the Building Loan and the Project Loan in such order and priority as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion. If the Required Ratios at Completion cannot be achieved even if the Earn Out Advances are reduced to $0.00 and the deposits, if any under the Rate Lock Agreement and the Interest Reserve Funds are applied to the payment of the Loan, Borrower shall deposit with Lender Cash or a Letter of Credit satisfactory to Lender in an amount equal to the amount which, if used to pay down the Loan, would result in Stabilized Loan-to-Value Ratio of 75%, and a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.70 to 1.0, calculated based upon Lender’s determination on a pro-forma basis of Lender’s Stabilized Net Cash Flow for the 12 months immediately following and

assuming a thirty (30) year amortization schedule based upon a debt service constant equal to the greater of the actual debt service constant and 7.50%, and a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.20 to 1.0, calculated based upon Lender’s determination on a pro-forma basis of Lender’s underwritten Net Operating Income for the 12 months immediately following and assuming a thirty (30) year amortization schedule based upon a debt service constant equal to the greater of the actual debt service constant and 10.65%. 2.12.3 Rate Lock Agreement. Upon satisfaction of all of the conditions to the Final Advance set forth in Section 2.12.1, and subject to the provisions of Section 2.12.2, Lender shall return to Borrower, the remaining deposits, if any, held by Lender under the Rate Lock Agreement and not applied by Lender in accordance with the provisions of the Rate Lock Agreement and any Interest Reserve Funds held by Lender pursuant to the Building Loan Agreement. Section 2.13 No Reliance. All conditions and requirements of this Agreement are for the sole benefit of Lender and no other person or party (including, without limitation, the Construction Consultant, the General Contractor and subcontractors (including, without limitation, Major Contractors and Major Subcontractors) and materialmen engaged in the construction of the Improvements) shall have the right to rely on the satisfaction of such conditions and requirements by Borrower. Lender shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to waive any such condition or requirement. Section 2.14 Method of Disbursement of Loan Proceeds. 2.14.1 Draw Request to Be Submitted to Lender. At such time as Borrower shall desire to obtain an Advance, Borrower shall complete, execute and deliver to Lender a Borrower’s Requisition in the form attached as Exhibit L to the Building Loan Agreement. (a) Borrower’s Requisition shall be accompanied by a completed and itemized Application and Certificate for Payment (AIA Document No. G702) attached as Exhibit M to the Building Loan Agreement or similar form approved by Lender, containing the certification of the General Contractor or contractor or subcontractor to whom such payment is made, as applicable, and Borrower’s Architect as to the accuracy of same, together with invoices relating to all items of Hard Costs covered thereby and accompanied by a cost breakdown showing the cost of work on, and the cost of materials incorporated into, the Improvements to the date of the requisition. The cost breakdown shall also show the percentage of completion of each line item on the Project Loan Budget, and the accuracy of the cost breakdown shall be certified by Borrower and by Borrower’s Architect. All such applications for payment shall also show all contractors and subcontractors, including Major Contractors and Major Subcontractors, by name and trade, the total amount of each contract or subcontract, the amount theretofore paid to each subcontractor as of the date of such application, and the amount to be paid from the proceeds of the Advance to each contractor and subcontractor; (b) the completed construction will be reviewed by the Construction Consultant who will certify to Lender as to the value of completed construction, percentage of completion and compliance with Plans and Specifications;

(c) lien waivers from each other Major Contractor and Major Subcontractors for work done and materials supplied by them which were paid for pursuant to any prior Draw Request; (d) a written request of Borrower for any necessary changes in the Plans and Specifications, the Project Loan Budget, the Disbursement Schedule or the Construction Schedule; (e) copies of all executed change orders, contracts and subcontracts, and, to the extent requested by Lender, of all inspection or test reports and other documents relating to the construction of the Project Improvements not previously delivered to Lender; and (f) such other information, documentation and certification as Lender shall reasonably request. 2.14.2 Procedure of Advances. (a) Each Draw Request shall be submitted to Lender and Construction Consultant at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Requested Advance Date, and no more frequently than monthly. Lender shall make the requested Advance on the Requested Advance Date so long as all conditions to such Advance are satisfied or waived. (b) Not later than 11:00 A.M. New York City time, on the Requested Advance Date, Lender shall make such Advance available to Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.14. (c) Each Advance (other than the Final Advance) shall be in an amount of not less than $250,000.00. (d) Each Advance shall be made on a Payment Date. 2.14.3 Funds Advanced. Each Advance shall be made by Lender by wire transfer to such checking account of Borrower as specified to Lender in writing or as provided in Section 2.14.4 below. All proceeds of all Advances shall be used by Borrower only for the purposes for which such Advances were made. Borrower shall not commingle such funds with other funds of Borrower. 2.14.4 Direct Advances to Third Parties. Lender may make, at Lender’s option, any or all Advances directly or through the Title Company to (i) any Contractor, as applicable, for construction expenses which shall theretofore have been approved by Lender and for which Borrower shall have failed to make payment after receipt by Borrower of such applicable Advance, (ii) Borrower’s Architect to pay its fees to the extent funds are allocated thereto in the Building Loan Budget if Borrower shall have failed to do so, (iii) the Construction Consultant to pay its fees, (iv) Lender’s counsel to pay its fees, (v) to pay (x) any installment of interest due under the Note, (y) any expenses incurred by Lender which are reimbursable by Borrower under the Loan Documents (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and other fees and expenses incurred by Lender), provided that Borrower shall theretofore have received notice from Lender that such expenses have been

incurred and Borrower shall have failed to reimburse Lender for said expenses beyond any grace periods provided for said reimbursement under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or (z) following the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, any other sums due to Lender under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, all to the extent that the same are not paid by the respective due dates thereof, and (vi) any other Person to whom Lender in good faith determines payment is due and any portion of the Loan so disbursed by Lender shall be deemed disbursed as of the date on which the Person to whom payment is made receives the same. The execution of this Agreement by Borrower shall, and hereby does, constitute an irrevocable authorization so to advance the proceeds of the Loan directly to any such Person or through the Title Company to such Persons in accordance with this Section 2.14.4 as amounts become due and payable to them hereunder and any portion of the Loan so disbursed by Lender shall be deemed disbursed as of the date on which the Person to whom payment is made receives the same. No further authorization from Borrower shall be necessary to warrant such direct Advances to such relevant Person, and all such Advances shall satisfy pro tanto the obligations of Lender hereunder and shall be secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents as fully as if made directly to Borrower. 2.14.5 One Advance Per Month. Lender shall have no obligation to make Advances of the Loan more often than once in each calendar month except that Lender, in its sole discretion, shall have the right but not the obligation, to make additional advances per month for interest, fees and expenses due under the Loan Documents. 2.14.6 Advances Do Not Constitute a Waiver. No Advance shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions of Lender’s obligation to make further Advances nor, in the event Borrower is unable to satisfy any such condition, shall any Advance have the effect of precluding Lender from thereafter declaring such inability to be an Event of Default hereunder. 2.14.7 Trust Fund Provisions. All proceeds advanced hereunder shall be subject to the trust fund provisions of Section 13 of the Lien Law. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to constitute a promise by Borrower, express or implied, or to create any obligation, express or implied, on the part of Borrower, to make an “improvement,” as such term is defined in the Lien Law of the State of New York, and no advance of proceeds of the Loan shall at any time be conditioned, directly or indirectly, upon the making of any such “improvement”. 2.14.8 Advances and Disbursements Under Completion Guaranty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes Lender to make any disbursements of proceeds of the Loan or of any Reserve Funds held by Lender to Guarantor in accordance with the Guaranty of Completion. Section 2.15 Interest Advances. Notwithstanding the requirements contained in Section 2.10, Section 2.11 and Section 2.12, and provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred, Lender shall make an Advance on each Payment Date during the Construction Term from the Interest Reserve Line Item, if and to the extent funds remain available under such line item, to pay interest then due under the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and to the extent that funds are available in the Additional Interest Reserve Deposit, Lender shall first apply funds

available in the Additional Interest Reserve Deposit to the payment of interest due, prior to making an Advance for such purpose. Nothing contained in this Section 2.15 shall limit or derogate from Borrower’s absolute and unconditional obligation to pay interest due under the Note. ARTICLE III.

Section 7.3 Reserve Funds, Generally. Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in each of the Reserve Funds and any and all monies now or hereafter deposited in each Reserve Fund as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Debt. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Lender, apply any sums then present in any or all of the Reserve Funds to the payment of the Debt in any order in its sole discretion. The Reserve Funds shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. All interest on a Reserve Fund shall not be added to or become a part thereof and shall be the sole property of and shall be paid to Lender. Borrower shall be responsible for payment of any federal, state or local income or other tax applicable to the interest earned on the Reserve Funds credited or paid to Borrower. Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Reserve Fund or the monies deposited therein or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. Lender shall not be liable for any loss sustained on the investment of any funds constituting the Reserve Funds. Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Reserve Funds or the performance of the obligations for which the Reserve Funds were established. Borrower shall assign to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all persons or entities supplying labor, materials or other services which are to be paid from or secured by the Reserve Funds; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and at any time thereafter, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and the Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and any or all of the Property, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt and Other Obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding. Section 8.2 Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any part of the Property. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Property and the Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

(b) With respect to Borrower and the Property, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to the Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in any preference or priority, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Property, or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Mortgage in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Mortgage then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Mortgage to recover such delinquent payments or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose the Mortgage to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Mortgage as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Mortgage to secure payment of sums secured by the Mortgage and not previously recovered. (c) Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) Business Days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents and the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date. Section 8.3 Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount. Section 10.6 Notices. All notices, consents, approvals and requests required or permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be given in writing and shall be effective for all purposes if hand delivered or sent by (a) certified or registered United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested or (b) expedited prepaid delivery service, either commercial or United States Postal Service, with proof of attempted delivery, and by telecopier (with answer back acknowledged), addressed as follows (or at such other address and Person as shall be designated from time to time by any party hereto, as the case may be, in a written notice to the other parties hereto in the manner provided for in this Section):

LENDER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY BORROWER. Section 10.8 Headings. The Article and/or Section headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. Section 10.9 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Section 10.10 Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

Section 10.11 Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower. Section 10.12 Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Section 10.13 Expenses; Indemnity. (1) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender upon receipt of written notice from Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower (including without limitation any opinions requested by Lender as to any legal matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property); (ii) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s respective agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (iii) Lender’s ongoing performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Lender; (v) securing Borrower’s compliance with any requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (vi) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Lien in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vii) enforcing or preserving any rights, in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Property, or any other security given for the Loan; and (viii) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Property (including any fees incurred by Servicer in connection with the transfer of the Loan to a special servicer prior to a Default or Event of Default) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any insolvency

or bankruptcy proceedings; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Any cost and expenses due and payable to Lender may be paid from any amounts in the Clearing Account or Cash Management Account, as applicable. (a) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Lender in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not Lender shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Lender in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to Lender hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Lender. (b) Borrower covenants and agrees to pay for or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for, any fees and expenses incurred by any Rating Agency in connection with any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation. Section 10.14 Schedules and Exhibits Incorporated. The Schedules and Exhibits annexed to the Building Loan Agreement are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof. Section 10.15 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower. Section 10.16 No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries. (a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or

therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender. (b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so. Section 10.17 Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, BSCMI, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender. Section 10.18 Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. Section 10.19 Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents. Section 10.20 Identical Obligations; Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. To the extent that Borrower has identical obligations under this Agreement and under any of the other Loan Agreements, performance by Borrower of such obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Agreements shall be deemed performance by Borrower, as applicable, under all such Loan Agreements and hereunder of such obligations. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of

Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates. Section 10.21 Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt. Section 10.22 Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, including, without limitation, the Commitment Letter dated June 28, 2007 between Borrower and Lender are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Section 10.23 Joint and Several Liability. If Borrower consists of more than one (1) Person the obligations and liabilities of each Person shall be joint and several. Section 10.24 Certain Additional Rights of Lender (VCOC). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Lender shall have: (a) the right to routinely consult with and advise Borrower’s management regarding the significant business activities and business and financial developments of Borrower; provided, however, that such consultations shall not include discussions of environmental compliance programs or disposal of hazardous substances. Consultation meetings should occur on a regular basis (no less frequently than quarterly) with Lender having the right to call special meetings at any reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice; (b) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to examine the books and records of Borrower at any reasonable times upon reasonable notice; (c) the right, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 5.1.11 hereof, to receive monthly, quarterly and year end financial reports, including balance sheets, statements of income, shareholder’s equity and cash flow, a management report and schedules of outstanding indebtedness; and

(d) the right, without restricting any other rights of Lender under this Agreement (including any similar right), to approve any acquisition by Borrower of any other significant property (other than personal property required for the day to day operation of the Property and/or construction of the Project Improvements). The rights described above in this Section 10.24 may be exercised by any entity which owns and controls, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the interests in Lender. Section 10.25 MERS. Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MERS”), serves as mortgagee of record and secured party solely as nominee, in an administrative capacity, for Lender and only holds legal title to the interests granted, assigned, and transferred in the Mortgage and the Assignments of Leases. MERS shall at all times comply with the instructions of Lender. If necessary to comply with law or custom, MERS (for the benefit of Lender) may be directed by Lender to exercise any or all of those interests, including without limitation, the right to foreclose and sell the Property, and take any action required of Lender, including without limitation, a release, discharge or reconveyance of the Mortgage. Subject to the foregoing, all references in the Loan Documents to “Mortgagee” shall include Lender and its successors and assigns. The relationship of Mortgagor and Lender under the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrower and lender (the role of MERS thereunder being solely that of nominee as set forth above and not that of a lender); and Mortgagee neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower or to any other Person with respect to the Property.
