ARTICLE I

GENERAL TERMS

1.1 The Loan.

(a) On the Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall make a loan to Borrower (the "Loan") in an amount equal to the Loan Amount. The Loan shall initially be represented by a single Note that shall bear interest as described in this Agreement at a per annum rate equal to the Initial Interest Rate.

(b) The Loan shall be secured by the Collateral pursuant to the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.

(c) Lender shall have the right at any time, at Lender's sole discretion, to replace the initial Note with two or more replacement Notes, and the holder of each replacement Note shall similarly have the right at any time, at such holder's sole discretion, to replace its Note with two or more replacement Notes. Each replacement Note shall be in the form of the Note so replaced, but for its principal amount and Interest Rate. The principal amount of each Note shall be determined by the applicable holder in its sole discretion, provided that the initial sum of the principal amounts of the replacement Notes shall equal the then-outstanding principal balance of the Notes that are so replaced. The Interest Rate of each replacement Note shall be determined by the applicable holder in its sole discretion, provided that the initial weighted average of such Interest Rates, weighted on the basis of the principal balances of the respective Notes, shall initially equal the Interest Rate of the Note so replaced. Borrower shall execute and return to Lender each such Note within two (2) Business Days after Borrower's receipt of an execution copy thereof, and Borrower's failure to do so within such time period shall, at Lender's election, constitute an Event of Default if, after the expiration of the aforesaid two (2) Business Day period, Lender gives written notice to Borrower and Borrower fails to execute and return to Lender each such Note within two (2) additional Business Days. Borrower hereby authorizes and appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to execute such replacement Notes on Borrower's behalf should Borrower fail to do so. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term of this Agreement. Borrower hereby ratifies all actions that such attorney shall lawfully take or cause to be taken in accordance with this Section 1.1(c). If requested by Lender, and at Lender’s expense (other than Borrower’s legal fees, which shall be the responsibility of Borrower), Borrower shall deliver to Lender, together with such replacement Notes, an opinion of counsel with respect to the due authorization and enforceability of such replacement Notes and confirming that the delivery of such replacement Notes does not alter the conclusions reached in the legal opinions delivered to Lender at Closing.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 26

1.2 Interest and Principal.

(a) On each Payment Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender a constant monthly payment of $223,303.27, which amount shall be applied first toward the payment of interest on each Note for the applicable Interest Accrual Period at the applicable Interest Rate (except that in each case, interest shall be payable on the Indebtedness, including due but unpaid interest, at the Default Rate with respect to any portion of such Interest Accrual Period falling during the continuance of an Event of Default, in which case the monthly payment shall be increased by the amount of Default Interest accrued on the Notes during the applicable Interest Accrual Period), and the balance shall be applied toward the reduction of the outstanding principal balances of the Notes pro rata in accordance with their then outstanding principal balances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay interest from and including the Closing Date through the end of the first Interest Accrual Period, in lieu of making such payment on the first Payment Date following the Closing Date (unless the Closing Date falls on a Payment Date, in which case, no interest will be collected on the Closing Date, and Borrower shall make the payment required pursuant to this Section 1.2(a) commencing on the first Payment Date following the Closing Date). Interest payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the related Interest Accrual Period.

(b) No prepayments of the Loan shall be permitted except for (i) prepayments resulting from Casualty or Condemnation as described in Section 5.16(f), and (ii) a prepayment of the Loan in whole (but not in part) during the Prepayment Period on not less than 30 days prior written notice; provided that any prepayment hereunder shall be accompanied by all interest accrued on the amount prepaid, plus, to the extent the prepayment is made on a date other than a Payment Date, the amount of interest that would have accrued thereon if the Loan had remained outstanding through the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which such prepayment occurs, plus all other amounts then due under the Loan Documents. For purposes of subsection (b)(ii) if the Payment Date on which Borrower plans to prepay the Loan is not a Business Day, Borrower may prepay the Loan on the immediately preceding Business Day. Borrower's notice of prepayment shall create an obligation of Borrower to prepay the Loan as set forth therein, but may be rescinded with five days' written notice to Lender (subject to payment of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses resulting from such rescission). In addition, Defeasance shall be permitted after the expiration of the Lockout Period as described in Section 2.1. The entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, together with interest through the end of the applicable Interest Accrual Period and all other amounts then due under the Loan Documents, shall be due and payable by Borrower to Lender on the Maturity Date.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 27

(c) If all or any portion of the Principal Indebtedness is paid to Lender following acceleration of the Loan after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the applicable Yield Maintenance Premium. Amounts received in respect of the Indebtedness during the continuance of an Event of Default shall be applied toward interest, principal and other components of the Indebtedness (in such order as Lender shall determine) before any such amounts are applied toward payment of Yield Maintenance Premiums, with the result that Yield Maintenance Premiums shall accrue as the Principal Indebtedness is repaid but no amount received from Borrower shall constitute payment of a Yield Maintenance Premium until the remainder of the Indebtedness shall have been paid in full. Borrower acknowledges that (i) a prepayment will cause damage to Lender; (ii) the Yield Maintenance Premium is intended to compensate Lender for the loss of its investment and the expense incurred and time and effort associated with making the Loan, which will not be fully repaid if the Loan is prepaid; (iii) it will be extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of Lender's damages caused by a prepayment after an acceleration or any other prepayment not permitted by the Loan Documents; and (iv) the Yield Maintenance Premium represents Lender's and Borrower's reasonable estimate of Lender's damages from the prepayment and is not a penalty.

(d) Any payments of interest and/or principal not paid when due hereunder shall bear interest at the applicable Default Rate and, in the case of all payments due hereunder other than the repayment of the Principal Indebtedness on the Maturity Date or on any other earlier date as a result of an acceleration of the Loan, when paid, shall be accompanied by a late fee in an amount equal to the lesser of five percent of such unpaid sum and the maximum amount permitted by applicable law in order to defray a portion of the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment.

1.3 Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Notes (including any deposit into the Cash Management Account pursuant to Section 3.2(c)) shall be made to Lender not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by wire transfer in federal or other immediately available funds to the account specified from time to time by Lender. Any funds received by Lender after such time shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day. Lender shall notify Borrower in writing of any changes in the account to which payments are to be made. If the amount received from Borrower (or from the Cash Management Account pursuant to Section 3.2(b)) is less than the sum of all amounts then due and payable hereunder, such amount shall be applied, at Lender's sole discretion, either toward the components of the Indebtedness (e.g., interest, principal and other amounts payable hereunder) and the Notes, in such sequence as Lender shall elect in its sole discretion, or toward the payment of Property expenses.

1.4 Taxes; Regulatory Change.

(a) Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender against any present or future stamp, documentary or other similar or related taxes or other similar or related charges now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any United States Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and any consents, waivers, amendments and enforcement of rights under the Loan Documents.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 28

(b) If Borrower is required by law to withhold or deduct any amount from any payment hereunder in respect of any U.S. Tax, Borrower shall withhold or deduct the appropriate amount, remit such amount to the appropriate Governmental Authority and pay to each Person to whom there has been an Assignment or Participation of the Loan and who is not a U.S. Person such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment of any amount due to such non-U.S. Person hereunder after deduction for or withholding in respect of any U.S. Tax imposed with respect to such payment (or in lieu thereof, payment of such U.S. Tax by such non-U.S. Person), will not be less than the amount stated in this Agreement to be then due and payable; except that the foregoing obligation to pay such additional amounts shall not apply (i) to any assignee that has not complied with the obligations contained in Section 9.7(c), (ii) to any U.S. Taxes imposed solely by reason of the failure by such Person (or, if such Person is not the beneficial owner of the relevant Loan, such beneficial owner) to comply with applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connections with the United States of America of such Person (or beneficial owner, as the case may be) if such compliance is required by statute or regulation of the United States of America as a precondition to relief or exemption from such U.S. Taxes; or (iii) with respect to any Person who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment, to any U.S. Tax imposed with respect to payments made under any Note to a fiduciary or partnership to the extent that the beneficial owner or member of the partnership would not have been entitled to the additional amounts if such beneficial owner or member of the partnership had been the holder of the Note.

(c) Within 30 days after paying any amount from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within 30 days after it is required by law to remit such deduction or withholding to any relevant taxing or other authority, Borrower shall deliver to such non-U.S. Person satisfactory evidence of such deduction, withholding or payment (as the case may be).

(d) If, as a result of any Regulatory Change, any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with, Lender or any holder of all or a portion of the Loan is imposed, modified or deemed applicable and the result is to increase the cost to such Lender or such holder of making or holding the Loan, or to reduce the amount receivable by Lender or such holder hereunder in respect of any portion of the Loan by an amount deemed by Lender or such holder to be material (such increases in cost and reductions in amounts receivable, "Increased Costs"), then Borrower agrees that it will pay to Lender or such holder upon Lender's or such holder's request such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender and/or such holder for such Increased Costs to the extent that such Increased Costs are reasonably allocable to the Loan. Lender will notify Borrower in writing of any event occurring after the Closing Date that will entitle Lender or any holder of the Loan to compensation pursuant to this Section 1.4(d) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation and will designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. If such Lender shall fail to notify Borrower of any such event within 90 days following the end of the month during which such event occurred, then Borrower's liability for any amounts described in this Section incurred by such Lender as a result of such event shall be limited to those attributable to the period occurring subsequent to the 90th day prior to the date upon which such Lender actually notified Borrower of the occurrence of such event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Borrower be required to compensate Lender or any holder of the Loan for any portion of the income or franchise taxes of Lender or such holder, whether or not attributable to payments made by Borrower. If a Lender requests compensation under this Section 1.4(d), Borrower may, by notice to Lender, require that such Lender furnish to Borrower a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 29

1.5 Release. Upon payment of the Indebtedness in full when permitted or required hereunder, Lender shall execute instruments prepared by Borrower and reasonably satisfactory to Lender, which, at Borrower's election and at Borrower's sole cost and expense: (a) release and discharge all Liens on all Collateral securing payment of the Indebtedness (subject to Borrower's obligation to pay any associated fees and expenses), including all balances in the Collateral Accounts; or (b) assign such Liens (and the Loan Documents) to a new lender designated by Borrower.

Defeasance Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender an assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements as may be reasonably requested by Lender and legal opinions of counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender that are substantially equivalent to the opinions delivered to Lender on the Closing Date, including new nonconsolidation opinions reasonably satisfactory to Lender and satisfactory to the Rating Agencies; and Borrower and the Defeasance Borrower shall deliver such other documents, certificates and legal opinions as Lender shall reasonably request, in which event Borrower shall be completely released and relieved of all of its obligations under the Loan Documents except those obligations which by their terms survive the repayment of the Loan.

3.1 Cash Management Account.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, Borrower shall establish and thereafter maintain with the Cash Management Bank a cash management account into which income from the Property will be deposited (the "Cash Management Account"), which account shall be owned by Borrower but remain under the sole and exclusive control (as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code) of Lender. As a condition precedent to the closing of the Loan, Borrower shall cause the Cash Management Bank to execute and deliver an agreement (as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance herewith, a "Cash Management Agreement") that provides, inter alia, that no party other than Lender and Servicer shall have the right to withdraw funds from the Cash Management Account and that the Cash Management Bank shall comply with all instructions and entitlement orders of Lender relating to the Cash Management Account and the other Collateral Accounts, in each case, without the consent of Borrower or any other Person. The fees and expenses of the Cash Management Bank shall be paid by Borrower.

(b) Within five Business Days following the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to each Tenant in the Property a written notice (a "Tenant Notice") in the form of Exhibit B instructing that (i) all payments under the Leases shall thereafter be transmitted by them directly to, and deposited directly into, the Cash Management Account or a Blocked Account, and (ii) such instruction may not be rescinded unless and until such Tenant receives from Borrower or Lender a copy of Lender's written consent to such rescission. Upon request of Lender, Borrower shall send a copy of each such written notice to Lender. Borrower shall redeliver such notices to each Tenant until such time as such Tenant complies therewith. Borrower shall cause all cash Revenues relating to the Property and all other money received by Borrower or the Approved Property Manager with respect to the Property (other than tenant security deposits held in accordance with Legal Requirements) to be deposited in the Cash Management Account or a Blocked Account by the end of the first Business Day following Borrower's or the Approved Property Manager's receipt thereof. "Blocked Account" means an Eligible Account maintained with a financial institution satisfactory to Lender and Borrower that enters into a blocked account agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender (as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance herewith, the "Blocked Account Agreement") satisfactory to Lender pursuant to which such financial institution will remit, at the end of each Business Day, all amounts contained therein to an account specified by Lender (Lender hereby agreeing to specify the Cash Management Account so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing).

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 35

(c) Lender shall have the right at any time, upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice to Borrower, to replace the Cash Management Bank with any Eligible Institution at which Eligible Accounts may be maintained that will promptly execute and deliver to Lender a Cash Management Agreement substantially identical to the Cash Management Agreement executed at Closing. In addition, during the continuance of an Event of Default or if the Blocked Account Bank fails to comply with the Blocked Account Agreement or ceases to be an Eligible Institution, Lender shall have the right at any time, upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice to Borrower, to replace the Blocked Account Bank with any Eligible Institution at which Eligible Accounts may be maintained that will promptly execute and deliver to Lender a Blocked Account Agreement satisfactory to Lender.

(d) Borrower shall maintain at all times a Qualified Operating Expense Account. Borrower shall not permit any amounts unrelated to the Property to be commingled with amounts on deposit in the Qualified Operating Expense Account and, during a continuing Event of Default, shall cause all amounts payable with respect to Operating Expenses for the Property to be paid from the Qualified Operating Expense Account or the Cash Management Account (to the extent required or permitted hereunder) and no other account. Upon Lender’s request and otherwise during a continuing Event of Default, Borrower shall deliver to Lender the monthly bank statement related to such Qualified Operating Expense Account. Unless and until an Event of Default shall occur, Borrower shall have direct access to, and shall be permitted to make withdrawals and equity distributions from, the Qualified Operating Expense Account, without the consent of Lender. During the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts contained in the Qualified Operating Expense Account shall be remitted to the Cash Management Account.

3.2 Distributions from Cash Management Account.

(a) The Cash Management Agreement shall provide that the Cash Management Bank shall remit to the Qualified Operating Expense Account, at the end of each Business Day (or, at Borrower's election, on a less frequent basis), the amount, if any, by which amounts then contained in the Cash Management Account exceed the aggregate amount required to be paid to or reserved with Lender on the next Payment Date pursuant hereto (the "Minimum Balance"); provided, however, that Lender shall terminate such remittances during the continuance of an Event of Default or Trigger Period upon notice to the Cash Management Bank. Lender may notify the Cash Management Bank at any time of any change in the Minimum Balance, with a copy of such notice provided to Borrower.

(b) On each Payment Date, provided no Event of Default is continuing, Lender shall transfer amounts from the Cash Management Account, to the extent available therein, to make the following payments in the following order of priority:

(i) to the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account, the amounts then required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.4;

(ii) to Lender, the amount of all scheduled or delinquent interest and principal on the Loan and all other amounts then due and payable under the Loan Documents (with any amounts in respect of principal paid last);

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 36

(iii) during the continuance of a Trigger Period, to the Qualified Operating Expense Account, an amount equal to the Budgeted Operating Expenses for the month in which such Payment Date occurs, provided that the amounts disbursed to Borrower pursuant to this clause (iii) shall be used by Borrower solely to pay Budgeted Operating Expenses for such month reduced by the amount, if any, by which Budgeted Operating Expenses disbursed in the previous month exceeded actual operating expenses for such month and provided further that no amounts will be disbursed to Borrower in respect of the fees of the Approved Property Manager to the extent such fees exceed three percent (3.0%) of Operating Income;

(iv) to the Capital Expenditure Reserve Account, the amounts required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.6;

(v) to the TI/LC Reserve Account, any amount required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.5;

(vi) if required by Section 3.9 below, during the continuance of a Trigger Period caused solely by a Belks Trigger Event, an amount equal to $62,500.00 to the Belks Reserve Account until the balance contained therein is equal to $750,000.00;

(vii) during the continuance of a Trigger Period caused by any event other than a Belks Trigger Event, all remaining amounts to the Excess Cash Flow Reserve Account; and

(viii) if no Trigger Period is continuing, all remaining amounts, if any, to such accounts as Borrower may direct.

(c) If on any Payment Date the amount in the Cash Management Account shall be insufficient to make all of the transfers described in Section 3.2(b)(i) through (vi), Borrower shall deposit into the Cash Management Account on such Payment Date the amount of such deficiency. If Borrower shall fail to make such deposit, the same shall constitute an Event of Default and, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for under the Loan Documents, Lender may disburse and apply the amounts in the Collateral Accounts in accordance with Section 3.11(c).

3.3 Loss Proceeds Account.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, Borrower shall establish and thereafter maintain with the Cash Management Bank an account for the purpose of depositing any Loss Proceeds (the "Loss Proceeds Account").

(B) 1/12 of the insurance premiums that Lender reasonably estimates, based on information provided by Borrower, will be payable during the next ensuing 12 months;

provided, however, that if at any time Lender reasonably determines that the amount in the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account will not be sufficient to accumulate (upon payment of subsequent monthly amounts in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) the full amount of all installments of Taxes and insurance premiums by the date on which such amounts come due, then Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account by the amount that Lender reasonably estimates is sufficient to achieve such accumulation.

(d) Borrower shall provide Lender with copies of all tax and insurance bills relating to the Property promptly after Borrower's receipt thereof. Lender will apply amounts in the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account toward the purposes for which such amounts are deposited therein. In connection with the making of any payment from the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account, Lender may cause such payment to be made according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or insurance carrier, without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof unless given written advance notice by Borrower of such inaccuracy, invalidity or other contest.

(e) If Lender so elects at any time, Borrower shall provide, at Borrower's expense, a tax service contract for the term of the Loan issued by a tax reporting agency reasonably acceptable to Lender. If Lender does not so elect, Borrower shall reimburse Lender for the cost of making annual tax searches throughout the term of the Loan.

(d) Whenever a Lease covering 2,500 square feet or more of gross leasable area is terminated, whether by buy-out, cancellation, default or otherwise, and Borrower receives any payment, fee or penalty in respect of such termination (a "Termination Fee"), Borrower shall promptly cause such Termination Fee to be deposited into the TI/LC Reserve Account. Provided no Event of Default is continuing, (i) Lender shall disburse such Termination Fee or portion thereof to Borrower at the written request of Borrower in respect of Leasing Commissions and Tenant Improvement costs incurred by Borrower in connection with a replacement Lease entered into in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in respect of the space covered by such terminated Lease and (ii) the remainder of such Termination Fee or portion thereof, if any, shall be remitted to the Cash Management Account after the space covered by such terminated Lease has been relet, the replacement Tenant is in occupancy and has commenced paying rent under the replacement Lease and all Leasing Commissions and Tenant Improvement costs relating to such space have been paid.

If, however, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that, notwithstanding the foregoing characterization of the Account Collateral and the Revenues by Borrower and Lender, the Account Collateral and/or the Revenues do constitute property of Borrower's bankruptcy estate, then Borrower and Lender further acknowledge and agree that all such Revenues, whether due and payable before or after the filing of the petition, are and shall be cash collateral of Lender. Borrower acknowledges that Lender does not consent to Borrower's use of such cash collateral and that, in the event Lender elects (in its sole discretion) to give such consent, such consent shall only be effective if given in writing signed by Lender. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, Borrower shall not have the right to use or apply or require the use or application of such cash collateral (i) unless Borrower shall have received a court order authorizing the use of the same, and (ii) Borrower shall have provided such adequate protection to Lender as shall be required by the bankruptcy court in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code.

4.18 Use of Loan Proceeds. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose that would be inconsistent with such Regulations T, U or X or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for any purpose prohibited by Legal Requirements or by the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. The Loan is solely for the business purpose of Borrower or for distribution to Borrower's equityholders in accordance with Legal Requirements.

4.19 Not Foreign Person. Borrower is not a "foreign person" within the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the Code.

4.20 Labor Matters. Borrower is not a party to any collective bargaining agreements.

4.21 Title. Borrower owns good, marketable and insurable title to the Property and good and marketable title to the related personal property, to the Collateral Accounts and to any other Collateral, in each case, to Borrower's knowledge, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances. To Borrower's knowledge, the Security Instrument, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (i) a valid, perfected first priority Lien on the Property and the rents therefrom, enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from Borrower and subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, and (ii) perfected Liens (pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Kentucky or Delaware) in and to all personalty, all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances. To Borrower's knowledge, the Permitted Encumbrances do not and will not materially and adversely affect or interfere with the value, or current use or operation, of the Property, or the security intended to be provided by the Security Instrument or Borrower's ability to repay the Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. Except as insured over by a Qualified Title Insurance Policy, to Borrower's knowledge, there are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Property that are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents. No creditor of Borrower other than Lender has in its possession any goods that constitute or evidence the Collateral.

4.22 No Encroachments. Except as shown on the Qualified Survey, all of the improvements on the Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Property, and no improvements on adjoining property encroach upon the Property, and no easements or other encumbrances upon the Property encroach upon any of the improvements, so as, in either case, to adversely affect the value or marketability of the Property, except those that are insured against by a Qualified Title Insurance Policy.

4.24 Fraudulent Conveyance. Borrower has not entered into the Transaction or any of the Loan Documents with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor. Borrower has received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents. On the Closing Date, the fair salable value of Borrower's aggregate assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan and the use and disbursement of the proceeds thereof, be greater than Borrower's probable aggregate liabilities (including subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and Contingent Obligations). Borrower's aggregate assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loan and the use and disbursement of the proceeds thereof will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including Contingent Obligations and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 50

4.30 No Joint Assessment. Borrower has not suffered, permitted or initiated the joint assessment of the Property (i) with any other real property constituting a separate tax lot, or (ii) with any personal property, or any other procedure whereby the Lien of any Taxes that may be levied against such other real property or personal property shall be assessed or levied or charged to the Property as a single Lien.

4.31 Separate Lots. For the Taxes applicable to the Property that are due in 2011, the Property is part of one or more tax lots that includes real property that is not part of the Collateral.

(a) Borrower shall cause the Property to be maintained in good and safe working order and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and in keeping with the condition and repair of properties of a similar use, value, age, nature and construction. Borrower shall not use, maintain or operate the Property in any manner that constitutes a public or private nuisance or that makes void, voidable, or cancelable, or increases the premium of, any insurance then in force with respect thereto. Subject to Section 6.13, without the prior written consent of Lender, no improvements or equipment located at or on the Property shall be removed, demolished or materially altered (except for replacement of equipment in the ordinary course of Borrower's business with items of the same utility and of equal or greater value and sales of obsolete equipment no longer needed for the operation of the Property). Subject to Section 6.13, Borrower shall from time to time make, or cause to be made, all reasonably necessary and desirable repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements to the Property. Borrower shall not make any change in the use of the Property that would materially increase the risk of fire or other hazard arising out of the operation of the Property, or do or permit to be done thereon anything that may in any way impair the value of the Property in any material respect or the Lien of the Security Instrument or otherwise cause or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower shall not install or permit to be installed on the Property any underground storage tank. Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, permit any drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal, or production of any minerals from the surface or the subsurface of the Property, regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof.

(b) Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Borrower shall provide to Lender written evidence of the commencement by a independent environmental auditor approved by Lender of the scope of work as recommended pursuant to that certain Phase II Limited Subsurface Investigation dated June 13, 2011 prepared by EBI Consulting for the benefit of Lender, a copy of which Borrower acknowledges it has received. Such scope of work relates to the existing contamination of the soil and groundwater in the area to the east of the leased premises occupied by the Tenant doing business as JCPenney's which has shown levels of total petroleum hydrocarbons ("TPH") greater than the Kentucky DEP Cleanup Standard for TPH of 500 mg/kg due to historical rail yard operations on the Property. Borrower shall thereafter, with reasonable due diligence and in any event within one (1) year after the Closing Date, provide the following to Lender, each of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion: (i) evidence of additional testing and investigation of the soil and groundwater in the identified area to determine the extent of the TPH contamination, (ii) copies of all reports, testing results and other information received by Borrower in conjunction therewith, (iii) evidence of a managed closure from the Kentucky DEP of the contamination and the institution of appropriate protections and covenants related to future activities on the Property to restrict potential exposure to the contamination, and (iv) an Officer's Certificate and other evidence required by Lender confirming (x) the scope of work recommended by the Phase II has been completed in accordance with the standards required by the applicable Governmental Authority in the State of Kentucky, (y) all other requirements outlined herein have been completed and (z) all associated expenses have been paid (items (i) through (iv) immediately above are collectively referred to herein as the "TPH Remediation"). To the extent the TPH Remediation is not completed within one (1) year after the Closing Date despite Borrower's diligent efforts but is susceptible of being cured, then Borrower shall have such additional time as is reasonably necessary to complete the TPH Remediation, provided that (xx) Borrower delivers written notice to Lender prior to the expiration of the one (1) year period which notice shall include evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of Borrower’s due diligent efforts and progress to complete the TPH Remediation and (yy) thereafter, Borrower delivers evidence to Lender of Borrower’s continued due diligent efforts and progress to complete the TPH Remediation every six (6) months until the TPH Remediation has been completed.

5.4 Impositions and Other Claims. Borrower shall pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied upon it, its income and its assets as and when such taxes, assessments and charges are due and payable, as well as all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies or otherwise, subject to any rights to contest contained in the definition of Permitted Encumbrances. Borrower shall file all federal, state and local tax returns and other reports that it is required by law to file. If any law or regulation applicable to Lender, any Note, any of the Collateral or the Security Instrument is enacted that deducts from the value of property for the purpose of taxation any Lien thereon, or imposes upon Lender the payment of the whole or any portion of the taxes or assessments or charges or Liens required by this Agreement to be paid by Borrower, or changes in any way the laws or regulations relating to the taxation of mortgages or security agreements or debts secured by mortgages or security agreements or the interest of the mortgagee or secured party in the property covered thereby, or the manner of collection of such taxes, so as to affect the Security Instrument, the Indebtedness or Lender, then Borrower, upon demand by Lender, shall pay such taxes, assessments, charges or Liens, or reimburse Lender for any amounts paid by Lender. If in the reasonable opinion of Lender's counsel it would be unlawful to require Borrower to make such payment or the making of such payment would result in the imposition of interest beyond the maximum amount permitted by applicable Law, Lender may elect to declare all of the Indebtedness to be due and payable one hundred fifty (150) days from the giving of written notice by Lender to Borrower, without the obligation to pay any prepayment, yield maintenance or similar premium or fee.

5.5 Access to Property. Borrower shall permit agents, representatives and employees of Lender and the Servicer to enter and inspect the Property or any portion thereof, and/or inspect, examine, audit and copy the books and records of Borrower (including all recorded data of any kind or nature, regardless of the medium of recording), at such reasonable times as may be requested by Lender upon reasonable advance notice. If Lender shall determine that an Event of Default exists, the cost of such inspections, examinations, copying or audits shall be borne by Borrower, including the cost of all follow up or additional investigations, audits or inquiries deemed reasonably necessary by Lender. The cost of such inspections, examinations, audits and copying, if not paid for by Borrower following demand, may be added to the Indebtedness and shall bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate. If Borrower prohibits, bars or fails to permit agents, representatives and employees of Lender and Servicer from entering and inspecting the Property or from inspecting, examining, auditing and copying Borrower's books and records, as required by this Section, for more than five days after a written request is made by Lender to do so, Borrower agrees to pay Lender on demand the sum of $1,000.00 for each day after such five-day period that Borrower so prohibits or bars such inspection, and such sum or sums shall be part of the Indebtedness.

Except with respect to any claim by Borrower against Lender, Borrower shall cooperate fully with Lender with respect to any proceedings before any Governmental Authority that may in any way affect the rights of Lender hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents and, in connection therewith, Lender may, at its election, participate or designate a representative to participate in any such proceedings.

5.7 Leases.

(a) Promptly upon Lender’s written request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with executed copies of all Leases. All new Leases and renewals or amendments of Leases must (i) be entered into on an arms-length basis with Tenants that are not affiliates of Borrower and whose identity and creditworthiness is appropriate for tenancy in property of comparable quality, (ii) provide for rental rates and other economic terms that, taken as a whole, are at least equivalent to then-existing market rates, based on the applicable market, and otherwise contain terms and conditions that are commercially reasonable, (iii) not have or reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and (iv) except for Specialty Leases, be expressly subject and subordinate to the Security Instrument and contain provisions for the agreement by the Tenant thereunder to attorn to Lender and any purchaser at a foreclosure sale, such attornment to be self-executing and effective upon acquisition of title to the Property by any purchaser at a foreclosure sale or require the Tenant to execute a mutually acceptable subordination and nondisturbance agreement.

(b) All new Leases that are Major Leases, and all terminations, renewals and amendments of Major Leases, and any surrender of rights under any Major Lease, shall be subject to the prior written consent of Lender. If Lender shall fail to respond to Borrower’s request for such consent within five (5) Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such request accompanied by a comprehensive term sheet and reasonably detailed financial information about the proposed Tenant (to the extent available from such Tenant), Borrower may deliver to Lender a second request for consent stating in bold and capitalized type that "LENDER’S FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THE ENCLOSED REQUEST WITHIN FIVE BUSINESS DAYS SHALL BE DEEMED LENDER’S APPROVAL", provided that if Lender has reasonably requested any additional information with respect to the Tenant (and such information is possessed by or available to Borrower), Borrower shall not have the right to send any such second request unless and until Borrower shall have delivered to Lender such additional information. In the event Lender fails to approve or disapprove such request within five Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such second request, such request shall be deemed approved.

(c) Borrower shall (i) observe and punctually perform all the material obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases; (ii) enforce all of the material terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases on the part of the lessee thereunder to be observed or performed, short of termination thereof, except that Borrower may terminate any Lease following a material default thereunder by the respective Tenant; (iii) not collect any of the rents thereunder more than one month in advance; (iv) not execute any assignment of lessor's interest in the Leases or associated rents other than the assignment of rents and leases under the Security Instrument; (v) not cancel or terminate any guarantee of any of the Major Leases without the prior written consent of Lender; and (vi) not permit any subletting of any space covered by a Major Lease or an assignment of the Tenant's rights under a Major Lease, except in strict accordance with the terms of such Major Lease. Borrower shall deliver to each new Tenant a Tenant Notice upon execution of such Tenant's Lease, and promptly upon request of Lender deliver to Lender a copy thereof and evidence of such Tenant's receipt thereof.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 55

(d) Security deposits of Tenants under all Leases, whether held in cash or any other form, shall be held in accordance with Legal Requirements. Borrower shall maintain books and records of sufficient detail to identify all security deposits of Tenants separate and apart from any other payments received from Tenants. Any bond or other instrument that Borrower is permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable Legal Requirements shall be maintained in full force and effect unless replaced by cash deposits as described above, shall be issued by an institution reasonably satisfactory to Lender, shall (if not prohibited by any Legal Requirements) name Lender as payee or mortgagee thereunder (or at Lender's option, be fully assignable to Lender) or may name Borrower as payee thereunder so long as such bond or other instrument is pledged to Lender as security for the Indebtedness and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable Legal Requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall, upon Lender's request, provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of Borrower's compliance with the foregoing. During the continuance of any Event of Default, Borrower shall, upon Lender's request, deposit with Lender in an Eligible Account pledged to Lender an amount equal to the aggregate security deposits of the Tenants (and any interest theretofore earned on such security deposits and actually received by Borrower) that Borrower had not returned to the applicable Tenants or applied in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease.

(e) Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each written notice from a Tenant under any Major Lease claiming that Borrower is in default in the performance or observance of any of the material terms, covenants or conditions thereof to be performed or observed by Borrower.

5.9 Further Assurances. Borrower shall, at Borrower's sole cost and expense (except as provided below with respect to matters involving Section 1.1(c) and/or 9.7(b) or a restructuring of the Loan pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement), from time to time as reasonably requested by Lender, execute, acknowledge, record, register, file and/or deliver to Lender such other instruments, agreements, certificates and documents (including Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amended or replacement mortgages) as Lender may reasonably request to evidence, confirm, perfect and maintain the Liens securing or intended to secure the obligations of Borrower and the rights of Lender under the Loan Documents or to facilitate a replacement of the Cash Management Bank pursuant to Section 3.1(c) or a bifurcation of the Notes pursuant to Sections 1.1(c) and/or 9.7(b) or a restructuring of the Loan pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement (and with respect to the costs and expenses associated with a bifurcation of the Notes pursuant to Section 1.1(c) and/or 9.7(b) or a restructuring of the Loan pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, all of the foregoing shall be at Lender’s sole cost and expense including, without limitation, Lender’s legal fees, the cost of Article 9 or UCC insurance policies for mezzanine pledges, but Borrower shall be required to pay its own legal fees, costs of forming additional Borrower entities, and costs associated with the management and administration of such entity (e.g. salaries of Independent Directors and Independent Managers) and other costs incurred by Borrower in connection with a corporate restructuring), in each case if requested by Lender, and do and execute all such further lawful and reasonable acts, conveyances and assurances for the better and more effective carrying out of the intents and purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as Lender shall reasonably request from time to time. Upon foreclosure, the appointment of a receiver or any other relevant action, Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, cooperate fully and completely to effect the assignment or transfer of any license, permit, agreement or any other right necessary or useful to the operation of the Collateral. Borrower hereby authorizes and appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to execute, acknowledge, record, register and/or file such instruments, agreements, certificates and documents, and to do and execute such acts, conveyances and assurances, should Borrower fail to do so itself in violation of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents following written request from Lender, in each case without the signature of Borrower. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term of this Agreement. Borrower hereby ratifies all actions that such attorney shall lawfully take or cause to be taken in accordance with this Section 5.9.

Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender to cure any such default shall constitute a part of the Indebtedness and shall be due from Borrower upon demand by Lender.

(i) insurance against loss or damage by standard perils included within the classification "All Risks Special Form Cause of Loss" (including coverage for damage caused by windstorm and hail).

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 61

If TRIPRA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, Borrower shall be required to carry terrorism insurance throughout the term of the Loan as required by the preceding sentence, but in such event Borrower shall not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable at such time in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required hereunder (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance), and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, Borrower shall purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount;

(xi) motor vehicle liability coverage for all owned and non owned vehicles, including rented and leased vehicles containing minimum limits per occurrence of $1,000,000.00 (if applicable); and

(b) All policies of insurance (the "Policies") required pursuant to this Section 5.15 shall be issued by one or more primary insurers having a claims-paying ability of at least "A" or "A2" by each of the Rating Agencies, or by a syndicate of insurers through which at least 75% of the coverage (if there are 4 or fewer members of the syndicate) or at least 60% of the coverage (if there are 5 or more members of the syndicate) is with carriers having such claims-paying ability ratings (provided that the first layers of coverage are from carriers rated at least "A" or "A2" and all such carriers shall have claims-paying ability ratings of not less than "BBB+" or "Baa1"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining whether the insurer ratings requirements set forth above have been satisfied, (1) any insurer that is not rated by Fitch will be regarded as having a Fitch rating that is the equivalent of the rating given to such insurer by any of Xxxxx'x and S&P that does rate such insurer (or, if both such rating agencies rate such insurer, the lower of the two ratings), and (2) any insurer that is not rated by Xxxxx'x will be regarded as having a Xxxxx'x rating of "Baa1" or better if it is rated "A-" or better by S&P and will be regarded as having a Xxxxx'x rating of "A2" or better if it is rated "A+" or better by S&P.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 62

(i) shall contain deductibles that, in addition to complying with any other requirements expressly set forth in Section 5.15(a), are approved by Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, but subject to the requirements of each Rating Agency) and are no larger than is customary for similar policies covering similar properties in the geographic market in which the Property is located, but in any event are not in excess of $100,000.00 (except in the case of windstorm and earthquake coverage, which shall have deductibles not in excess of 5% of the total insurable value of the Property);

(ii) shall be maintained throughout the term of the Loan without cost to Lender and shall name Borrower as the named insured;

(iii) with respect to property policies, shall contain a standard noncontributory mortgagee clause naming Lender and its successors and assigns as their interests may appear as first mortgagee and loss payee;

(iv) with respect to liability policies, shall name Lender and its successors and assigns as their interests may appear as additional insureds;

(v) with respect to rental or business interruption insurance policies, shall name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as their interests may appear as loss payee;

(vi) shall contain an endorsement providing that neither Borrower nor Lender nor any other party shall be a co-insurer under said Policies;

(vii) shall contain an endorsement providing that Lender shall receive at least 30 days' prior written notice of any modification, reduction or cancellation thereof;

(viii) shall contain an endorsement providing that no act or negligence of Borrower or of a Tenant or other occupant or any foreclosure or other proceeding or notice of sale relating to the Property shall affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as a mortgagee is concerned;

(ix) shall provide that Lender shall not be liable for any insurance premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder;

(x) shall contain a waiver of subrogation against Lender;

(xi) may be in the form of a blanket policy, provided that Borrower shall provide evidence satisfactory to Lender that the insurance premiums for the Property are separately allocated under such Policy to the Property and that (i) payment of such allocated amount shall maintain the effectiveness of such Policy as to the Property notwithstanding the failure of payment of any other portion of premiums, and (ii) overall insurance limits will under no circumstance limit the amount that will be paid in respect of the Property, and provided further that any such blanket policy shall specifically allocate to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder or shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy in Lender's discretion, subject to review and approval by Lender based on the schedule of locations and values; and

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 63

(xii) shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Lender and shall contain such other provisions as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interests.

(d) Borrower shall pay the premiums for all Policies as the same become due and payable. Copies of such Policies, certified as true and correct by Borrower, shall be delivered to Lender promptly upon request. Not later than 30 days prior to the expiration date of each Policy, Borrower shall deliver to Lender evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Lender, of its renewal. Borrower shall promptly forward to Lender a copy of each written notice received by Borrower of any modification, reduction or cancellation of any of the Policies or of any of the coverages afforded under any of the Policies. Within 30 days after request by Lender, Borrower shall obtain such increases in the amounts of coverage required hereunder as may be reasonably requested by Lender, taking into consideration changes in the value of money over time, changes in liability laws, changes in prudent customs and practices, and the like.

(e) Borrower shall not procure any other insurance coverage that would be on the same level of payment as the Policies or would adversely impact in any way the ability of Lender or Borrower to collect any proceeds under any of the Policies. If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all Policies are in full force and effect when and as required hereunder, Lender shall have the right to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate (but limited to the coverages and amounts required hereunder). All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(f) In the event of foreclosure of the Security Instrument or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies then in force with respect to the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or in Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 64

5.16 Casualty and Condemnation.

(a) Borrower shall give prompt notice to Lender of any Casualty or Condemnation or of the actual or threatened commencement of proceedings that would result in a Condemnation.

(b) Lender may participate in any proceedings for any taking by any public or quasi-public authority accomplished through a Condemnation or any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of a Condemnation, to the extent permitted by law. Upon Lender's request, Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments reasonably requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Borrower shall not consent or agree to a Condemnation or action in lieu thereof without the prior written consent of Lender in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in the case of a taking of an immaterial portion of the Property.

(c) Lender may (x) jointly with Borrower settle and adjust any claims, (y) during the continuance of an Event of Default, settle and adjust any claims without the consent or cooperation of Borrower, or (z) allow Borrower to settle and adjust any claims; except that if no Event of Default is continuing, Borrower may settle and adjust claims aggregating not in excess of the Loss Proceeds Threshold if such settlement or adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner. Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall be permitted to collect and receive Loss Proceeds for claims that Borrower is permitted to settle without Lender’s participation pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence; provided, however, that, Lender shall be entitled to collect and receive (as set forth below) any and all Loss Proceeds for claims that Borrower is not permitted to settle without Lender’s participation pursuant to the immediately preceding. The reasonable expenses incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection of Loss Proceeds shall become part of the Indebtedness and shall be reimbursed by Borrower to Lender upon demand therefor.

(d) Except to the extent Borrower is permitted to collect and receive Loss Proceeds pursuant to Section 5.16(c), all Loss Proceeds from any Casualty or Condemnation shall be immediately deposited into the Loss Proceeds Account (monthly rental loss/business interruption proceeds to be initially deposited into the Loss Proceeds Account and subsequently deposited into the Cash Management Account in installments as and when the lost rental income covered by such proceeds would have been payable). Following the occurrence of a Casualty, Borrower, regardless of whether proceeds are available, shall in a reasonably prompt manner proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Property to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty, all in accordance with the terms hereof applicable to Alterations. If any Condemnation or Casualty occurs as to which, in the reasonable judgment of Lender:

(i) in the case of a Casualty, the cost of restoration would not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the Loan Amount and the Casualty does not render untenantable, or result in the cancellation of Leases covering, more than 25% of the gross rentable area of the Property, or result in cancellation of Leases covering more than 25% of the base contractual rental revenue of the Property;

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 65

(ii) in the case of a Condemnation, the Condemnation does not render untenantable, or result in the cancellation of Leases covering, more than 15% of the gross rentable area of the Property;

(iii) restoration of the Property is reasonably expected to be completed prior to the expiration of rental interruption insurance and at least six months prior to the Maturity Date;

(iv) after such restoration, the fair market value of the Property is reasonably expected to equal at least the fair market value of the Property immediately prior to such Condemnation or Casualty (assuming the affected portion of the Property is relet); and

(v) all necessary approvals and consents from Governmental Authorities will be obtained to allow the rebuilding and re-occupancy of the Property;

or if Lender otherwise elects to allow Borrower to restore the Property, then, provided no Event of Default is continuing, the Loss Proceeds after receipt thereof by Lender and reimbursement of any reasonable expenses incurred by Lender in connection therewith shall be applied to the cost of restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding the Property or part thereof subject to the Casualty or Condemnation, in the manner set forth below (and Borrower shall commence, as promptly and diligently as practicable, to prosecute such restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding of the Property in a workmanlike fashion and in accordance with applicable law to a status at least equivalent to the quality and character of the Property immediately prior to the Condemnation or Casualty). Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be then continuing, Lender shall disburse such Loss Proceeds to Borrower upon Lender's being furnished with (i) evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the estimated cost of completion of the restoration, (ii) funds, or assurances reasonably satisfactory to Lender that such funds are available and sufficient in addition to any remaining Loss Proceeds, to complete the proposed restoration (including for any reasonable costs and expenses of Lender to be incurred in administering such restoration) and for payment of the Indebtedness as it becomes due and payable during the restoration, and (iii) such architect's certificates, waivers of lien, contractor's sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey and such other evidences of cost, payment and performance as Lender may reasonably request; and Lender may, in any event, require that all plans and specifications for restoration reasonably estimated by Lender to exceed the Loss Proceeds Threshold be submitted to and approved by Lender prior to commencement of work (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). If Lender reasonably estimates that the cost to restore will exceed the Loss Proceeds Threshold, Lender may retain a local construction consultant to inspect such work and review Borrower's request for payments and Borrower shall, on demand by Lender, reimburse Lender for the reasonable fees and expenses of such consultant (which fees and expenses shall constitute Indebtedness). No payment shall exceed 90% of the value of the work performed from time to time until such time as 50% of the restoration (calculated based on the anticipated aggregate cost of the work) has been completed, and amounts retained prior to completion of 50% of the restoration shall not be paid prior to the final completion of the restoration. Funds other than Loss Proceeds shall be disbursed prior to disbursement of such Loss Proceeds, and at all times the undisbursed balance of such proceeds remaining in the Loss Proceeds Account, together with any additional funds irrevocably and unconditionally deposited therein or irrevocably and unconditionally committed for that purpose, shall be at least sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Lender to pay for the cost of completion of the restoration free and clear of all Liens or claims for Lien.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 66

(e) Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in obtaining for Lender the benefits of any Loss Proceeds lawfully or equitably payable to Lender in connection with the Property. Lender shall be reimbursed for any expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, and, if reasonably necessary to collect such proceeds, the expense of an Appraisal on behalf of Lender) out of such Loss Proceeds or, if insufficient for such purpose, by Borrower. Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender as the attorney-in-fact of Borrower for matters in excess of the Loss Proceeds Threshold with respect to the Property, with full power of substitution, subject to the terms of this Section 5.16, to settle for, collect and receive all Loss Proceeds and any other awards, damages, insurance proceeds, payments or other compensation from the parties or authorities making the same, to appear in and prosecute any proceedings therefor and to give receipts and acquittance therefor (which power of attorney shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Indebtedness is outstanding, shall be deemed coupled with an interest, and shall survive the voluntary or involuntary dissolution of Borrower).

(f) If Borrower is not entitled to apply Loss Proceeds toward the restoration of the Property pursuant to Section 5.16(d) and Lender elects not to permit such Loss Proceeds to be so applied, such Loss Proceeds shall be applied on the first Payment Date following such election to the prepayment of the Principal Indebtedness (without the requirement to pay a prepayment fee or premium) and shall be accompanied by interest through the end of the applicable Interest Accrual Period (calculated as if the amount prepaid were outstanding for the entire Interest Accrual Period). If the Note has been bifurcated into multiple Notes pursuant to Section 1.1(c), all prepayments of the Loan made by Borrower in accordance with this Section 5.16(f) shall be applied to the Notes in ascending order of interest rate (i.e., first to the Note with the lowest interest rate until its outstanding principal balance has been reduced to zero, then to the Note with the second lowest interest rate until its outstanding principal balance has been reduced to zero, and so on) or in such other order as Lender shall determine.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.16, if the Loan is included in a REMIC and immediately following a release of any portion of the applicable Property from the Lien of the Loan Documents in connection with a Casualty or Condemnation the Loan would fail to satisfy a Lender 80% Determination, then the Principal Indebtedness shall be prepaid in accordance with Section 5.16(f) in an amount equal to either (i) so much of the Loss Proceeds as are necessary to cause the Lender 80% Determination to be satisfied, or if the aggregate Loss Proceeds are insufficient for such purpose, then the amount realized by Borrower from the Casualty or Condemnation for purposes of computing gain or loss under section 1001 of the Code, or (ii) a lesser amount provided the Borrower delivers to Lender an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and delivered by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lender, opining that such release of Property from the Lien does not cause any portion of the Loan to cease to be a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of section 860G(a)(3) of the Code.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 67

5.17 Annual Budget. Within sixty (60) days after the commencement of each Fiscal Year during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall deliver to Lender for informational purposes only an Annual Budget for the Property for the ensuing Fiscal Year and, promptly after preparation thereof, any subsequent revisions to the Annual Budget. In addition, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Annual Budget for the Property within 30 days after the commencement of any Trigger Period or Event of Default, which Annual Budget and any revisions thereto shall be subject to Lender's approval (the Annual Budget, as so approved, the "Approved Annual Budget"); provided, however, that Borrower shall not amend any Annual Budget more than once in any 60-day period. For so long as Lender shall withhold its consent to any Annual Budget or any revisions thereto, the Annual Budget in effect prior to any such request for approval shall remain in effect. Without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, during the continuance of a Trigger Period Borrower shall not make any expenditures that are either not provided for in the Approved Annual Budget or that would, in the aggregate, cause any line item in the Approved Annual Budget to be exceeded by 5% or more measured on an annual basis, other than expenditures for non-discretionary items and expenditures required to be made by reason of the occurrence of any emergency (i.e., an unexpected event that threatens imminent harm to persons or property at the Property) and with respect to which it would be impracticable, under the circumstances, to obtain Lender's prior consent thereto (collectively, the "Non-Discretionary Items").

5.18 Nonbinding Consultation. Lender shall have the right to consult with and advise Borrower regarding significant business activities and business and financial developments of Borrower, provided that any such advice or consultation or the result thereof shall be completely nonbinding on Borrower.

5.19 Compliance with Encumbrances and Material Agreements. Borrower covenants and agrees as follows:

(i) Borrower shall comply with all material terms, conditions and covenants of each Material Agreement and each material Permitted Encumbrance, including any reciprocal easement agreement, any declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions, and any condominium arrangements.

(ii) Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a true, correct and complete copy of each and every notice of default received by Borrower with respect to any obligation of such Borrower under the provisions of any Material Agreement and/or Permitted Encumbrance.

(iii) Borrower shall deliver to Lender copies of any written notices of default or event of default relating to any Material Agreement and/or Permitted Encumbrance served by Borrower.

(iv) After the occurrence of an Event of Default, so long as the Loan is outstanding, Borrower shall not grant or withhold any material consent, approval or waiver under any Material Agreement or Permitted Encumbrance without the prior written consent of Lender.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 68

(v) Borrower shall deliver to each other party to any Permitted Encumbrance and any Material Agreement notice of the identity of Lender and each assignee of Lender of which Borrower is aware if such notice is required in order to protect Lender's interest thereunder.

(a) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may by written notice to Borrower, in addition to any other rights or remedies available pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity, declare by written notice to Borrower all or any portion of the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, whereupon all or such portion of the Indebtedness shall so become due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Collateral (including all rights or remedies available at law or in equity); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in Section 7.1(d) shall occur, then the Indebtedness shall immediately become due and payable without the giving of any notice or other action by Lender. Any actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents.

(b) If Lender forecloses on the Property, Lender shall apply all net proceeds of such foreclosure to repay the Indebtedness, the Indebtedness shall be reduced to the extent of such net proceeds and the remaining portion of the Indebtedness shall remain outstanding and secured by the Property and the other Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed by Borrower that Borrower is liable for the repayment of all the Indebtedness; provided, however, that at the election of Lender, the Notes shall be deemed to have been accelerated only to the extent of the net proceeds actually received by Lender with respect to the Property and applied in reduction of the Indebtedness.

The costs and expenses incurred by Lender in exercising rights under this Section (including reasonable attorneys' fees), with interest at the Default Rate for the period after notice from Lender that such costs or expenses were incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, shall be secured by the Security Instrument and other Loan Documents and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand therefor.

(d) Interest shall accrue on any judgment obtained by Lender in connection with its enforcement of the Loan at a rate of interest equal to the Default Rate.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 75

7.3 No Waiver. 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 by Lender to be expedient. A waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

7.4 Application of Payments after an Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts received by Lender in respect of the Loan shall be applied at Lender's sole discretion either toward the components of the Indebtedness (e.g., Lender's expenses in enforcing the Loan, interest, principal and other amounts payable hereunder) and the Notes in such sequence as Lender shall elect in its sole discretion, or toward the payment of Property expenses.

(c) Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in effecting any bifurcation of the Notes, Assignment, Participation or Securitization. Borrower shall execute such notes, modifications and other agreements, and provide such information, legal opinions and documents relating to Borrower, any Single-Purpose Equityholder, Sponsor, the Property and any Tenants as Lender may reasonably request in connection with such Assignment, Participation or Securitization, all at Lender’s expense, except for Borrower’s legal fees and the costs of forming, maintaining and administering additional borrower entities (including, without limitation, fees paid to Independent Directors or Independent Managers) to accommodate any such bifurcation of the Notes, Assignment, Participation or Securitization. Borrower shall make available to Lender all information concerning its business and operations that Lender may reasonably request. Subject to Section 9.24, it is understood that the information provided by Borrower to Lender may ultimately be disclosed to actual or potential assignees, participants and/or pledgees, and may be incorporated into the offering documents for a Securitization, and thus various investors may also see some or all of the information. Lender, all such potential assignees, participants and/or pledgees and all of their respective advisors and professional firms shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, Borrower, and Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender as to any Damages that arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such information or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such information or necessary in order to make the statements in such information, or in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(d) If, pursuant to this Section 9.7, any interest in this Agreement or any Note is transferred to any transferee that is not a U.S. Person, the transferor Lender shall cause such transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, (i) to furnish to the transferor Lender either Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or any other form in order to establish an exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, U.S. withholding tax on all interest payments hereunder, and (ii) to agree (for the benefit of Lender and Borrower) to provide the transferor Lender a new Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or any forms reasonably requested in order to establish an exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, U.S. withholding tax upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form and comparable statements in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and completed by such transferee, and to comply from time to time with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with regard to such withholding tax exemption.

9.8 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.

9.9 Preferences; Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. Lender shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document. 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 and under the Loan Documents. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any portion 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 portion 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. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its permitted successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, and Borrower's partners and others with interests in Borrower, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the Security Instrument, 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 Indebtedness without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Indebtedness out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of the Security Instrument, any legal right otherwise available to Borrower that would require the separate sale of any Collateral or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any Collateral before proceeding against any other Collateral; and further in the event of such foreclosure, Borrower does hereby expressly consent to and authorize, at the option of Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Collateral.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 83

9.10 Remedies of Borrower. If a claim is made that Lender or its agents have unreasonably delayed acting or acted unreasonably in any case where by law or under this Agreement, the Notes, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents, any of such Persons has an obligation to act promptly or reasonably, Borrower agrees that no such Person shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower's sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking specific performance, injunctive relief and/or declaratory judgment. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against Lender and/or its affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for direct, special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any such claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

9.11 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. All payments made by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without any deduction for, any setoffs or counterclaims. Borrower waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a mandatory or compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender arising out of or in any way connected with the Notes, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Indebtedness. Any assignee of Lender's interest in the Loan shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses that are unrelated to the Loan.

9.12 No Joint Venture. Nothing in this Agreement 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 or lender.

9.13 Conflict; Construction of Documents. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Notes, the Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

Borrower and Sponsor each represent that they have dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than Eastdil Secured. Borrower and Sponsor each agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

9.17 General Indemnity; Payment of Expenses; Mortgage Recording Taxes.

(a) Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, shall protect, indemnify, reimburse, defend and hold harmless Lender and its officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, agents, sub-agents, affiliates, successors, participants and assigns of any and all of the foregoing (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") for, from and against, and shall be responsible for, any and all Damages of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties, in any way relating to or arising out of (i) any negligence or tortious act or omission on the part of Borrower or any of its agents, contractors, servants, employees, sublessees, licensees or invitees; (ii) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring in, on or about any Property or any part thereof or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (iii) any use, nonuse or condition in, on or about the Property or any part thereof or on adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (iv) any failure on the part of Borrower or Sponsor to perform or comply with any of the terms of the Loan Documents; (v) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Property or any part thereof; (vi) any failure of the Property, Borrower or Sponsor to comply with any Legal Requirements; (vii) any claim by brokers, finders or similar persons claiming to be entitled to a commission in connection with any lease or other transaction involving the Property or any part thereof under any legal requirement or any liability asserted against any Indemnified Party with respect thereto; and (viii) any and all claims and demands whatsoever that may be asserted against any Indemnified Party by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on such party's part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants, or agreements contained in any Lease, in each case, to the extent resulting, directly or indirectly, from any claim (including any Environmental Claim) made (whether or not in connection with any legal action, suit, or proceeding) by or on behalf of any Person; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder to the extent that such Damages have been found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 85

(b) If for any reason (including violation of law or public policy) the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 9.17 are unenforceable in whole or in part or are otherwise unavailable to Lender or insufficient to hold it harmless, then Borrower shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by Lender as a result of any Damages the maximum amount Borrower is permitted to pay under Legal Requirements. The obligations of Borrower under this Section 9.17 will be in addition to any liability that Borrower may otherwise have hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, will extend upon the same terms and conditions to any affiliate of Lender and the partners, members, directors, agents, employees and controlling persons (if any), as the case may be, of Lender and any such affiliate, and will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of Borrower, Lender, any such affiliate and any such person.

9.18 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. 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, Borrower and Indemnified Parties 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.

(v) any voluntary Debt if and to the extent the continued existence of such Debt is prohibited hereunder (for these purposes, Debt will be regarded as voluntary if either incurred voluntarily or if not repaid by Borrower from available cash flow);

(vi) any breach by Borrower or the Sponsor of any representation or covenant regarding environmental matters contained in this Agreement or in the Environmental Indemnity;

(vii) the failure to pay or maintain the Policies or pay the amount of any deductible required thereunder following a Casualty or other insurance claim, provided Lender permits cash flow from the Property to be applied for such purpose;

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 88

(x) any bankruptcy of Borrower, provided that, for the purpose of this clause (xi) "Damages" shall be limited to the amount by which such costs and expenses exceed the costs and expenses Lender would have incurred in an uncontested foreclosure on the Property (for the avoidance of doubt, the recourse described in this clause shall be in addition to the full recourse for bankruptcy described below);

(xi) any amounts owed by Borrower from time to time pursuant to Section 5.14(b);

(xii) any unauthorized Liens on the Collateral, provided there shall no liability hereunder to the extent either (a) the Property does not generate sufficient cash flow to avoid the occurrence of any such Liens or (b) the Liens relate to the failure to make any related payments which accrue after Borrower is no longer in possession or control of the Property as a result of foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, receivership or the exercise of other remedies under the Loan Documents; and

(xiii) any transfer by Borrower or Sponsor of any of the Collateral which is deemed personalty or intangibles in violation of the Loan Documents.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any right which Lender may have under the Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the debt owing to Lender by Borrower or to require that all Collateral shall continue to secure all of the Indebtedness owing to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents. Lender may seek a judgment on the Note (and, if necessary, name Borrower in such suit) as part of judicial proceedings to foreclose under the Security Instrument or to foreclose pursuant to any other Loan Documents, or as a prerequisite to any such foreclosure or to confirm any foreclosure or sale pursuant to power of sale thereunder and in the event any suit is brought on the Notes, or with respect to any Indebtedness or any judgment rendered in such judicial proceedings, such judgment shall constitute a Lien on and will be and can be enforced on and against the Collateral and the rents, profits, issues, products and proceeds thereof. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair the right of Lender to accelerate the maturity of the Note upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, nor shall anything in this Agreement impair or be construed to impair the right of Lender to seek personal judgments, and to enforce all rights and remedies under applicable law, jointly and severally against any guarantors to the extent allowed by any applicable guarantees. The provisions set forth in this Section 9.19 are not intended as a release or discharge of the obligations due under the Note or under any Loan Documents, but are intended as a limitation, to the extent provided in this Section, on Lender's right to xxx for a deficiency or seek a personal judgment against Borrower or Sponsor except as required in order to realize on the Collateral.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 89

9.20 Right of Set-Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind (all of such rights being hereby expressly waived), set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by Lender (including branches, agencies or affiliates of Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against the obligations and liabilities of Borrower to Lender hereunder, under the Notes, the other Loan Documents or otherwise, irrespective of whether Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed to have been made immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default even though such charge is made or entered on the books of Lender subsequent thereto.

Any such selection, review, inspection, examination and the like, and any other due diligence conducted by Lender, is solely for the purpose of protecting Lender's rights under the Loan Documents, and shall not render Lender liable to Borrower or any third party for the existence, sufficiency, accuracy, completeness or legality thereof.

9.22 Servicer. Lender may delegate any and all rights and obligations of Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to the Servicer upon notice by Lender to Borrower, whereupon any notice or consent from the Servicer to Borrower, and any action by Servicer on Lender's behalf, shall have the same force and effect as if Servicer were Lender.
