     (b) Borrower shall be entitled to exercise a one-time option to extend the Maturity Date for a period of two years from the initial Maturity Date, provided that: (1) as of the initial Maturity Date, the Property shall have generated a Debt Service Coverage Ratio, as of the end of the most recent fiscal year, of not less than 1.20 to 1.00, and (2) the Borrower shall pay to the Agent an extension fee in an amount equal to one eighth of one percent (1/8%) of the principal balance outstanding on the Loans as of the initial Maturity Date. In the event the Borrower

exercises this extension option, the payment schedules attached to the Notes shall be revise to add the additional principal payments that will be required to continue amortizing the outstanding principal balance of the Loans as of the initial Maturity Date over the remainder or the original amortization period.

     (c) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, all payments and prepayments on account of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note shall be applied as follows: (i) first, to fees, expenses, costs and other similar amounts then due and payable to the Banks, (ii) second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the principal balance of the Note, (iii) third, to the payment of principal due in the month in which the payment or prepayment is made, if any, (iv) fourth, to any escrows, impounds or other amounts which may then be due and payable under the Loan Documents, (v) fifth, to any other amounts then due the Banks hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, and (vi) last, to the unpaid principal balance of the Note. After an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, payments shall be applied as required under applicable law and in the absence of any such requirements, payments may be applied to amounts owed hereunder and under the Loan Documents in such order as Agent shall determine, in its sole discretion.

     (d) All payments of principal (including prepayments) and accrued interest shall be paid by wire transfer or check in United States Dollars, to Agent, for the account of the Banks, at such place as Agent may from time to time direct, and in the absence of such direction, then at the offices of Agent at 2600 West Big Beaver Road, Troy, Michigan 48084. Payment made by check shall be deemed paid on the date Lender receives such check; provided, however, that if such check is subsequently returned to Agent unpaid due to insufficient funds or otherwise, the payment shall not be deemed to have been made and shall continue to bear interest until collected. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment due under the Note must be made by wire transfer or other immediately available funds.

     (e) If any payment of interest or principal due hereunder is not made within five days after such payment is due in accordance with the terms hereof, then, in addition to the payment of the amount so due, Borrower shall pay to Agent a “late charge” of five cents for each whole dollar so overdue to defray part of the cost of collection and handling such late payment. Borrower agrees that the damages to be sustained by the holder hereof for the detriment caused by any late payment are extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain, and that the amount of five cents for each one dollar due is a reasonable estimate of such damages, does not constitute interest, and is not a penalty.

     (f) LIBOR Loans and Base Rate Loans may be prepaid either in whole or in part at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon three (3) days prior notice to Agent; provided, however, that if a LIBOR Loan is prepaid on a date other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, it shall be accompanied by any amounts due under Section 4.11 hereof.

     4.3 Types of Loans; Setting and Notice of LIBOR Rates.

     (a) Each Loan shall be divided into tranches which shall be LIBOR Loans, except in the circumstances described in Section 4.4(b), 4.6 or 4.8, in which case they shall be Base Rate Loans (each a “type” of Loan). Not more than five (5) different tranches of LIBOR Loans shall be outstanding at any one time. All borrowings, conversions and repayments of Loans shall be effected so that each Bank will have a pro rata share (according to its Pro Rata Share) of all Loans. Each LIBOR Loan shall be designated by the Borrower by any written, verbal, electronic, telephonic or telecopy request, in form acceptable to the Agent, which the Agent in good faith

believes to emanate from a properly authorized representative of the Borrower, whether or not that is in fact the case. Each such request shall be effective upon receipt by the Agent, shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the date, amount and the initial Interest Period therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice, Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof. The final Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan must be such that its expiration occurs on or before the Maturity Date. A request to designate a LIBOR Loan must be (i) received by the Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. Troy, Michigan time, three days before the day it is to be designated a LIBOR Loan, and (ii) in an amount equal to Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) or a higher integral multiple of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00). The Borrower does hereby irrevocably confirm, ratify and approve all such designations and does hereby indemnify the Agent and the Banks against losses and expenses (including court costs, attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees) and shall hold the Agent and the Banks harmless with respect thereto.

     (b) The applicable LIBOR Rate for each Interest Period shall be determined by the Agent, and notice thereof shall be given by the Agent promptly to Borrower and each Bank. The Agent shall, upon written request of Borrower or any Bank, deliver to Borrower or such Bank a statement showing the computations used by the Agent in determining any applicable LIBOR Rate hereunder.

     4.4 Conversion and Continuation Procedures.

     (a) Each LIBOR Loan shall automatically renew for the Interest Period specified in the initial request received by the Bank for the LIBOR Loan, at the then current LIBOR Rate unless the Borrower, pursuant to a subsequent written notice received by the Agent, shall elect a different Interest Period. Upon receipt by the Agent of such subsequent notice, the Borrower may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any LIBOR Loan having an Interest Period expiring on such day for a different Interest Period. Such notice shall be given before 11:00 a.m., Troy, Michigan time, at least three Business Days prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period, specifying: (i) the aggregate amount of LIBOR Loans to be converted to a different Interest Period; and (ii) the duration of the requested Interest Period.

     (b) The Borrower may not elect an Interest Period, and an Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan shall not automatically renew, with respect to any principal amount which is scheduled to be repaid before the last day of the applicable Interest Period, and any such amounts shall be converted to Base Rate Loans until repaid.

     4.5 Computation of Interest and Fees.

     (a) Fees and interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365 day year (366 days for leap years) for the actual days elapsed in any portion of a month in which interest is due. Interest on Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable law. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate, or the Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage, shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. Agent shall as soon as practicable notify Borrower and the Banks of each determination of a LIBOR Rate.

     (b) Each determination of an interest rate by Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto in the absence of manifest error.

     4.6 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error) that (i) the making or maintenance of any LIBOR Loan would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having the force of law, (ii) United States dollar deposits in the principal amount, and for periods equal to the Interest Period for funding any LIBOR Loan are not available in the London Interbank Eurodollar market in the ordinary course of business, or (iii) by reason of circumstances affecting the London Interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate to be applicable to the relevant LIBOR Loan, Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Borrower and Banks as soon as practicable thereafter and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (A) no Bank shall be under any obligation to make any LIBOR Loans or convert any Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, and (B) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, such Loan, unless then repaid in full, shall automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan, without further demand, presentment, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

     4.7 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. Each borrowing by Borrower from the Banks hereunder, and each payment by Borrower on account of any fees hereunder, shall be made pro rata according to the respective Pro Rata Shares of the Banks. Each payment (including each prepayment) by Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans then held by the Banks. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrower hereunder and under the Notes, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M., Troy, Michigan time, on the due date thereof. Agent shall distribute such payments to the Banks promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

     4.8 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if Agent shall have reasonably determined that any Regulatory Change shall make it unlawful for any Bank to make or maintain LIBOR Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, Agent shall give notice of such determination to Borrower and each Bank and (A) the commitment of such Bank hereunder to make LIBOR Loans, continue LIBOR Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (B) the LIBOR Loans then outstanding, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such LIBOR Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrower shall pay to each Bank such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subSection 4.11.

     4.9 Legal Requirements.

     (a) If any Regulatory Change made subsequent to the date hereof shall:

     (i) subject any Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Note or any LIBOR Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Bank in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by subsection 4.10 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Bank);

     (ii) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or

any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Bank which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate; or

     (iii) impose on such Bank any other condition regarding the LIBOR Loans or any Banks’ funding thereof;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank, by an amount which such Bank in good faith deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining LIBOR Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay such Bank, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

     (b) If any Bank shall have determined that any Regulatory Change regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in any such case made subsequent to the date hereof, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Bank to Borrower (with a copy to Agent) of a written request therefor, Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such reduction.

     (c) If any Bank becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall promptly notify Borrower, with a copy to Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subSection submitted by such Bank to Borrower (with a copy to Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

     (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection, Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to any Bank pursuant to this subSection to the extent such additional amounts result from such Bank’s negligence.

     4.10 Taxes.

     (a) All payments made by Borrower under this Agreement and any Note shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on Agent or any Bank as a result of a present or former connection between Agent or such Bank and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from Agent or such Bank having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any Notes). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Agent or any Bank

hereunder or under any Notes, the amounts so payable to Agent or such Bank shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Agent or such Bank (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement, provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Bank that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof if such Bank fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of this subsection. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter Borrower shall send to Agent for its own account or for the account of such Bank, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment thereof. If Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify Agent and the Banks for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Agent or any Bank as a result of any such failures. The agreements in this subSection shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection, Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to any Bank pursuant to this subSection to the extent such additional amounts result from such Bank’s negligence.

     (b) Each Bank that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall:

     (i) deliver to Borrower and Agent (A) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, and (B) an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9, or successor applicable form, as the case may be;

     (ii) deliver to Borrower and Agent two further copies of any such form or certification on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower; and

     (iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and complete such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by Borrower or Agent; unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise by required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Bank from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Bank so advises Borrower and Agent. Such Bank shall certify (i) in the case of a Form 1001 or 4224, that it is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes and (ii) in the case of a Form W-8 or W-9, that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each party that shall become a transferee pursuant to Section 10.1 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all of the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section, provided that in the case of a participant such participant shall furnish all such required forms and statements to Bank from which the related participation shall have been purchased.

     4.11 LIBOR Loan Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense which such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans after

Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by Borrower in making any prepayment after Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (c) the making of a prepayment of LIBOR Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnified amount shall include any and all costs, expenses, penalties and charges incurred by the Banks as a result thereof, plus an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the time of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of the failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period which would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included thereon, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably defined by such Bank) which would have accrued to such Bank on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the certificate of deposit market, the eurodollar deposit market, or other appropriate money market selected by such Bank. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts due hereunder. Amounts payable pursuant to this subSection shall be paid to Agent for the account of the applicable Bank, upon the request of such Bank through Agent and a determination of any Bank as to the amounts payable pursuant to this subSection shall be conclusive absent manifest error, based upon the assumption that such Bank funded its loan commitment for LIBOR Loans in the London Interbank Eurodollar market and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such Bank deems appropriate and practical, provided, however, that such Bank is not obligated to accept a deposit in the London Interbank Eurodollar market in order to charge interest on a LIBOR Loan at the LIBOR Rate.

     7.1 Conditions Precedent to Disbursement of Loan Proceeds. The Loan Closing shall be made at such time as all of the conditions and requirements of this Agreement required to be performed

by Borrower or other parties prior to the Loan Closing have been satisfied or performed, unless the same shall have been waived in writing by Agent; but in no event shall the Loan Closing occur later than the Loan Closing Date. At the Loan Closing, the Banks shall disburse funds necessary to pay any Loan Expenses then due, unless paid by Borrower. The Loan Proceeds shall not be disbursed by the Banks to Borrower unless:

     (a) all conditions precedent to that disbursement under the Loan Documents have been satisfied;

     (b) no Event of Default has occurred under this Agreement or under any Loan Document, and no event, circumstance or condition has occurred or exists which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, would constitute a Event of Default under this Agreement or under the Loan Documents;

     (c) no litigation or proceedings are pending or threatened (including proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code) against Borrower, Guarantor or the Property, which litigation or proceeding is material; and

     (d) all representations and warranties made by Borrower to the Banks herein and otherwise in connection with the Loans are accurate in all material respects.

     7.2 Advances by Banks.

     (a) If a Bank (a “Defaulting Bank”) defaults in making any advance or paying any other sum due and payable by it hereunder, such sum together with interest thereon at the interest rate applicable to such borrowing from the date such amount was due until repaid (such sum and interest thereon as aforesaid referred to, collectively, as the “Bank Default Obligation”) shall be payable by the Defaulting Bank (i) to any Bank which elects, at its sole option (and with no obligation to do so), to fund the amount which the Defaulting Bank failed to fund or (ii) to Agent or any other Bank which under the terms of this Agreement is entitled to reimbursement from the Defaulting Bank for the amounts advanced or expended. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, until such time as a Defaulting Bank has repaid the Bank Default Obligation in full, all amounts which would otherwise be distributed to the Defaulting Bank shall instead be applied first to repay the Bank Default Obligation (to be applied first to interest at the Federal Funds Rate and then to principal) until the Bank Default Obligation has been repaid in full (whether by such application or by cure by the Defaulting Bank), whereupon such Bank shall no longer be a Defaulting Bank. Any interest collected from Borrower on account of principal advanced by any Bank(s) on behalf of a Defaulting Bank shall be paid to the Bank(s) who made such advance and shall be credited against the Defaulting Bank’s obligation to pay interest on the amount advanced at the Federal Funds Rate. If no other Bank funds the amount which the Defaulting Bank was obligated to fund, then a portion of the Defaulting Bank’s indebtedness hereunder equal to the Bank Default Obligation shall be subordinated to the indebtedness of Borrower to the Banks (other than the Defaulting Bank) and shall be repaid only after payment in full of all other indebtedness hereunder. The provisions of this Section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether an Event of Default occurs and is then continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary or (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments. Additionally, a Defaulting Bank’s right to vote on matters which are subject to the consent or approval of the Required Banks (other than the Defaulting Bank) shall be suspended until it ceases to be a Defaulting Bank, and during any such period in which a Defaulting Bank’s voting rights have been suspended the Required Banks shall be the requisite percentage of all other entities comprising the Banks. Agent shall be

entitled to (i) withhold or set off, and to apply to the payment of the Bank Default Obligation any amounts to be paid to such Defaulting Bank under this Agreement, and (ii) bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Bank in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the Bank Default Obligation and, to the extent such recovery would not fully compensate Bank (other than the Defaulting Bank) for the Defaulting Bank’s breach of this Agreement, to collect damages. In addition, the Defaulting Bank shall indemnify, defend and hold Agent and each of the other Banks harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), plus interest thereon at the Default Rate, for funds advanced by Agent or any other Bank on account of the Defaulting Bank or any other damages such entities may sustain by reason of the Defaulting Bank’s failure or refusal to abide by its obligations under this Agreement. If a Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, Borrower may find a replacement Bank and require the Defaulting Bank to assign its interests to such replacement in accordance with the terms of Section 10.1 of this Agreement provided that there shall be deducted from the amount that would otherwise be paid to the Defaulting Bank an amount equal to the Bank Default Obligation.

     (b) Borrower hereby authorizes each Bank to make an advance to Agent for payment of the Commitment Fee and reimbursement of all charges, costs and expenses incurred by Agent in connection with the Loan, including, but not limited to, (i) any points, loan fees, service charges, commitment fees or other fees due to Agent in connection with the Loan; (ii) all title examination, survey, escrow, filing, search, recording and registration fees and charges; (iii) all documentary stamp and other taxes and charges imposed by law on the issuance or recording of any of the Loan Documents; (iv) all appraisal fees; (v) all reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel engaged by Agent in connection with the origination, negotiation, document preparation, consummation and administration of the Loan and all reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel engaged by the Agent in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, which shall also include reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys who may be employees of the Agent or any affiliate of the Agent; and (vi) any amounts required to be paid by Borrower under this Agreement, the Mortgages or any Loan Document after the occurrence of an Event of Default (all of which are herein referred to as “Loan Expenses”).

     7.3 Expenses and Advances Secured by Mortgages. Any and all advances or payments made by the Banks hereunder, from time to time, and any amounts expended by Agent pursuant to this Agreement and all other Loan Expenses, as and when advanced or incurred, shall be deemed to have been disbursed as part of the Loan and be and become secured and guaranteed by the Loan Documents to the same extent and effect as if the terms and provisions of this Agreement were set forth therein, whether or not the aggregate of such indebtedness shall exceed the face amount of the Note.

     7.4 Acquiescence not a Waiver. To the extent that Agent may have acquiesced (whether intentionally or unintentionally) in the Borrower’s failure to comply with and satisfy any condition precedent to the Loan Closing or to the disbursement of the Loan Proceeds, such acquiescence shall not constitute a waiver by Agent of any condition precedent set forth in this Agreement, and Agent at any time thereafter may require the Borrower to comply with and satisfy all conditions and requirements of this Agreement.

     7.5 Agent’s Action for Agent’s Own Protection Only. The authority herein conferred upon Agent and any action taken by Agent or its agents or employees will be taken by Agent and by its agents or employees for their own protection and that of the Banks only, and neither Agent nor its agents or employees shall be deemed to have assumed any responsibility to Borrower or Guarantor or any other person or entity with respect to any such action herein authorized or taken by them.

ASSIGNMENTS, SALE AND ENCUMBRANCES

     10.1 Bank Assignments, Participations.

     (a) Assignments. Any Bank may, with the prior written consent of Agent, at any time assign and delegate to one or more commercial banks or other financial institutions (any such entity to which such an assignment and delegation is to be made being herein called an “Assignee”) all or any fraction of such Bank’s Loans (which assignment and delegation shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Bank’s Loans) in a minimum aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of the assigning Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the Loans and (ii) Two Million and 00/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00); provided that Borrower and the Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with the interests so assigned and delegated to an Assignee until the date when all of the following conditions shall have been met:

     (i) five Business Days (or such lesser period of time as Agent and the assigning Bank shall agree) shall have passed after written notice of such assignment and delegation, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to such Assignee, shall have been given to the Borrower and Agent by such assigning Bank and the Assignee,

     (ii) the assigning Bank and the Assignee shall have executed and delivered to Borrower and the Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit “D” (an “Assignment Agreement”), together with any documents required to be delivered thereunder, which Assignment Agreement shall have been accepted by Agent, and

     (iii) except in the case of an assignment by a Bank to one of its affiliates, the assigning Bank or the Assignee shall have paid Agent a processing fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($3,500.00).

From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (A) such Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated to such Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Bank hereunder, and (B) the assigning Bank, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its obligations hereunder arising from and after the effective date of such assignment. Within five Business Days after effectiveness of any assignment and delegation, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent (for delivery to the Assignee and the Assignor, as applicable) a new Note in the principal amount of the Assignee’s Pro Rata Share of the Loans and, if the assigning Bank has retained a portion of the Loans, a replacement Note in the principal amount of the Pro Rata Share of the Loans retained by the assigning Bank (such Note to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the predecessor Note held by such assigning Bank). Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment. The assigning Bank shall mark the predecessor Note “exchanged” and deliver it to Borrower. Accrued interest on that part of the predecessor Note being assigned shall be paid as provided in the Assignment Agreement. Accrued interest and fees on that part of the predecessor Note not being assigned shall be paid to the assigning Bank. Accrued interest and accrued fees shall be paid at the same time or times provided in the predecessor Note and in this Agreement. Any attempted assignment and delegation not made in accordance with this Section 10.1.(a) shall be null and void.

     (b) Participations. Any Bank may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks or other financial institutions participating interests in any Loan owing to such Bank, the Note held by such Bank, the Loans of such Bank, or any other interest of such Bank hereunder (any Person purchasing any such participating interest being herein called a “Participant”). In the event of a sale by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, (i) such Bank shall remain the holder of its Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (ii) Borrower and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations hereunder, and (iii) all amounts payable by Borrower shall be determined as if such Bank had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Bank. No Participant shall have any direct or indirect voting rights hereunder and participants shall not have the right to further participate their interests. Each Bank agrees to incorporate the requirements of the preceding sentence into each participation agreement which such Bank enters into with any Participant. Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Notes are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement, any Note; provided that such right of setoff shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with the Banks, and the Banks agree to share with each Participant, as provided herein. Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article 4 hereof as if it were a Bank (provided that no Participant shall receive any greater compensation pursuant to such Article 4 than would have been paid to the participating Bank if no participation had been sold).

     10.2 Prohibition of Assignments and Encumbrances by Borrower. Except as expressly provided in the Mortgages, Borrower, without the prior written consent of Agent, shall not create, effect, consent to, attempt, contract for, agree to make, suffer or permit any Prohibited Transfer (as defined in the Mortgages).

The Borrower shall be entitled to a partial release from the lien of a Mortgage of each Property upon payment of a principal payment on the Loan, in addition to all scheduled payments of principal, in the amount shown for the applicable Property in Schedule 10.1 attached. Any such principal payment shall be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, on a pro-rata basis, and, at Borrower’s request, the amount of the regularly scheduled payments of principal due thereafter shall be adjusted to the amount necessary to amortize the remaining principal balance over the remainder of the original amortization period. Upon receipt of such payment, the Agent shall execute and record a discharge of the Mortgage encumbering the applicable Property.

ARTICLE 11

EVENTS OF DEFAULT BY BORROWER

     11.1 Event of Default Defined. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute an Event of Default, and any Event of Default which may occur hereunder shall constitute an Event of Default under each of the other Loan Documents:

     (c) The existence of any inaccuracy or untruth in any material respect in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or of any statement or certification as to facts delivered to Agent by Borrower or Guarantor;

     (g) The commencement of any involuntary petition in bankruptcy against Borrower or Guarantor or the institution against Borrower or Guarantor of any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, dissolution, liquidation or similar proceedings under any present or future federal, state or other statute or law, or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or similar officer for all or any substantial part of the property of Borrower or Guarantor, which shall remain undismissed or undischarged for a period of ninety (90) days;

     (h) The dissolution, unless corrected promptly within the time permitted by applicable law, or termination of Borrower or Guarantor;

     (i) The occurrence of an “Event of Default” under any of the Notes, the Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents; or

     (j) Nonpayment by Borrower of any Rate Management Obligation when due or the breach by Borrower of any term, provision or condition contained in any Rate Management Agreement.

ARTICLE 12

AGENT’S REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT

     12.1 Remedies Conferred upon Agent. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Agent, in addition to all remedies conferred upon Agent by law and by the terms of the Note, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents, may, and at the direction of the Required Banks shall, and upon occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 11.1(j) shall, pursue any one or more of the following remedies concurrently or successively, it being the intent hereof that none of such remedies shall be to the exclusion of any others:

     (a) Declare the Notes to be due and payable forthwith, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which Borrower hereby expressly waives, and

     (b) Exercise or pursue any other remedy or cause of action permitted at law or in equity or under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, but not limited to, foreclosure of the Mortgages and enforcement of all Loan Documents.

     12.2 Right of Banks to Make Advances to Cure Event of Defaults; Obligatory Advances. If an Event of Default shall occur as a result of Borrower’s failure to perform any of its covenants or agreements herein or in any of the other Loan Documents contained, Agent may (but shall not be required to) perform any of such covenants and agreements, and any amounts expended by Agent in so doing, and any amounts expended by Agent pursuant to Section 12.1 hereof and any amounts advanced by the Banks pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed advanced by the Banks under an obligation to do so regardless of the identity of the person or persons to whom said funds are disbursed. Amounts advanced

by the Banks to protect their security for the Loan are obligatory advances hereunder and shall constitute additional indebtedness payable on demand and evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.

     12.3 Attorneys’ Fees. Borrower will pay Agent’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in connection with the negotiation, preparation, administration and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which shall also include reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys who may be employees of the Agent or any affiliate of the Agent; without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if at any time or times hereafter Agent employs counsel for advice or other representation with respect to any matter concerning Borrower, this Agreement, the Property or the Loan Documents or if the Banks employ one or more counsel to protect, collect, lease, sell, take possession of, or liquidate any of the Property, or to attempt to enforce or protect any security interest or lien or other right in any of the Property or under any of the Loan Documents, or to enforce any rights of the Banks or obligations of Borrower or any other person, firm or corporation which may be obligated to the Banks by virtue of this Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement, instrument or document, heretofore or hereafter delivered to Agent in furtherance hereof, then in any such event, all of the attorneys’ fees arising from such services, and any expenses, costs and charges relating thereto, shall constitute an additional indebtedness owing by Borrower to the Banks payable on demand and evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents; provided, however, that in connection with any enforcement proceedings, the Agent shall be entitled to recover attorney fees only in the event it is the prevailing party.

     12.4 No Waiver. No failure by Agent to exercise, or delay by Agent in exercising, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of each other or of any right or remedy provided at law or in equity. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case, in itself, shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

     12.5 Default Rate. From and after the date of any Event of Default until the date on which such Event of Default is cured or waived, interest on funds outstanding hereunder shall accrue at the Default Rate and be payable on demand. The failure of Agent to charge interest at the Default Rate shall not be evidence of the absence of an Event of Default or waiver of an Event of Default by Agent.

ARTICLE 13

THE AGENT

     13.1 Appointment and Authorization.

     (a) Each Bank hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 13.9) appoints, designates and authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Bank, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in other Loan Documents with

reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

     (b) Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

     13.2 Actions Requiring Consent and Approval.

     (a) Agent may amend or waive any of the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or consent to any departure by any party to the Loan Documents there from which amendment, waiver or consent is intended to be within Agent’s discretion or determination, or otherwise in Agent’s reasonable determination shall not result in a material adverse change. Otherwise, no such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective unless in writing, signed by the Required Banks, and Borrower or the applicable party to the Loan Documents, as the case may be, and acknowledged by Agent and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Required Lender consent shall be required for the following:

     (i) Agent shall not, without the prior approval or consent of the Required Banks, appoint a successor Agent, provided that no Bank shall unreasonably withhold its consent to the appointment of a successor Agent and further provided that nothing contained in this Section 13.2 shall limit the rights of Agent under Section 13.9 in the event a successor Agent is not appointed within thirty (30) days of the retiring Agent giving notice of its resignation;

     (ii) Waive any non-monetary Event of Default on the part of the Borrower of Guarantor;

     (b) Agent shall not undertake any of the following actions without the prior approval or consent of each Bank:

     (i) Extend the Maturity Date or forgive all or any portion of the principal amount of the Loan or any accrued interest thereon, or any other amendment of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents which would reduce the underlying interest rate or the rate at which fees are calculated or forgive any loan fee, or extend the time of payment of any principal, interest or fees;

     (ii) Amend the recourse provisions in the Guaranty;

     (iii) Modify the percentage specified in the definition of Required Banks;

     (iv) Increase of the amount of the Loan;

     (v) Amend this Section 13.2(b);

     (vi) Waive a monetary default under the Loan Documents;

     (vii) Amend any of the conditions to the Loan Closing set forth in Article 6 of this Agreement;

     (viii) Release all or any portion of any collateral for the Loan except in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 13.10 hereof or any other Loan Document; and

     (ix) Consent to any additional indebtedness of Borrower secured by all or any portion of the Property, except as may be provided for in the Loan Documents.

     (c) No provision of Article 13 or other provision of this Agreement affecting the Agent in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the written consent of the Agent.

     (d) In addition to the required consents or approvals referred to in subsections (a), (b) and (c) above, Agent may, but shall not be required to, at any time request instructions from the Required Banks with respect to any actions or approvals which, by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents, Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant without instructions from the Required Banks, and if such instructions are promptly requested, Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever for refraining from taking any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Required Banks. Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks. Agent shall promptly notify each Bank at any time that the Required Banks have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

     (e) If an Event of a Default occurs hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, Agent may make the determination to accelerate the Loan and exercise or refrain from exercising remedies hereunder (and Agent shall do so at the written direction of the Required Banks). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent may take any action it deems to be necessary from time to time to protect the collateral.

     (f) Each Bank authorizes and directs Agent to enter into the Loan Documents other than this Agreement. Each Bank agrees that any action taken by Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required Bank in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the exercise by Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required Banks of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Banks, except for actions specifically requiring the approval of all of the Banks. All communications from Agent to the Banks requesting a Bank’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Bank, (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or item as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise each Bank where such matter or item may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (iii) shall include, if reasonably requested and to the extent not previously provided written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (iv) shall include Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each Bank shall reply promptly, but in any event within ten (10) days after receipt of the request therefor from Agent (the “Bank Reply Period”). Unless written notice to Agent that a Bank objects to the

recommendation or determination of Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the Bank Reply Period, such party shall be deemed to have approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination. With respect to decisions requiring the approval of the Required Banks or all of the Banks, Agent shall submit its recommendation or determination for approval of or consent to such recommendation or determination to each Bank and upon receiving the required approval or consent shall, to the extent feasible, follow the course of action or determination recommended by Agent or such other course of action recommended by the Required Banks, and each non-responding party shall be deemed to have concurred with such recommended course of action.

     (g) Until such time as Borrower is otherwise instructed in writing by the Agent or the Required Banks, Borrower may rely on the direction, consent or approval of Agent as the direction, consent or approval of the Banks.

     13.3 Liability of Agent. None of Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with the duties expressly set forth herein as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Banks or any Participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower, Guarantor, or any member, partner, shareholder or officer of Borrower or Guarantor, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or the creation, perfection or priority of any lien, mortgage or security interest therein), or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Bank to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Borrower or Guarantor.

     13.4 Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or party, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Banks as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, confirmation from the Banks of their obligation to indemnify the Agent against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Banks and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Banks. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 13, each Bank that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Bank unless the Agent shall have received written notice from such Bank prior to the proposed Loan Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

     13.5 Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Banks, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Bank or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Agent will notify the Banks of its receipt of any such notice. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Banks in accordance with this Section 13; provided that unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Banks.

     13.6 Credit Decision. Each Bank acknowledges that Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower and Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Agent to any Bank as to any matter, including whether the Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Bank represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and Guarantor, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Bank also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Banks by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower which may come into the possession of the Agent.

     13.7 Bank Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Banks shall indemnify upon demand Agent and its directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), pro rata, from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities, damaged and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that no Bank shall be liable for any payment to Agent of any portion of the Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. No action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Banks shall constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank shall reimburse Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Loan Expenses) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Loan Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

     13.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. LaSalle and its affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with Borrower and Guarantor as

though LaSalle were not Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Banks. The Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, LaSalle or its affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or Guarantor (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or Guarantor) and acknowledge that Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to their Loans (if any), LaSalle and its affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though LaSalle were not the Agent, and the terms “Bank” and “Banks” include LaSalle and its affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.

     13.9 Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty (30) days notice to the Banks. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Banks shall, with (so long as no Event of Default exists) the consent of Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint from among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Banks and Borrower, a successor agent from among the Banks. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent, and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 13 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Banks shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Banks appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

     13.10 Collateral Matters. The Banks irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon payment in full of all Loans and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder; (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by all of the Banks.

     13.11 Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or Guarantor, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

     (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, and all other obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Banks and the Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Banks and the Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Banks and the Agent hereunder allowed in such judicial proceedings; and

     (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Bank to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to

the Banks, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent hereunder.

     Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Loans or the rights of any Bank or to authorize the Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Bank in any such proceeding.

ARTICLE 14

MISCELLANEOUS

     14.1 Time is of the Essence. Borrower agrees that time is of the essence in all of its covenants under this Agreement.

     14.2 Agent’s Determination of Facts. Agent and/or Banks at all times shall be free to establish independently to its or their satisfaction and in its or their sole and absolute discretion the existence or nonexistence of any fact or facts, the existence or nonexistence of which is a condition of this Agreement.

     14.3 Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any other documents or instruments executed pursuant thereto or contemplated thereby, shall represent the entire, integrated agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the Loan, and shall supersede all prior negotiations, representations or agreements pertaining thereto, either oral or written. This Agreement and any provision hereof shall not be modified, amended, waived or discharged in any manner other than by a written amendment executed by all parties to this Agreement.

     14.4 Disclaimer by Banks. Borrower is not or shall not be an agent of Agent or the Banks for any purposes, and neither Agent nor the Banks are venture partners with Borrower in any manner whatsoever. Approvals granted by Agent or the Banks for any matters covered under this Agreement shall be narrowly construed to cover only the parties and facts identified in any written approval or, if not in writing, such approvals shall be solely for the benefit of Borrower.

     14.5 Borrower Indemnification. Borrower agrees to defend (with counsel satisfactory to Lender), protect, indemnify and hold harmless Agent, each Bank, any parent corporation, affiliated corporation or subsidiary of Agent or any Bank, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and distributions of any kind or nature (including, without limitation, the disbursements and the reasonable fees of counsel for each Indemnified Party thereto, which shall also include, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys who may be employees of Agent, any Bank or any parent or affiliated corporation of Agent or any Bank), which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Party (whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or local laws or regulations, including, without limitation, securities, environmental laws and commercial laws and regulations, under common law or in equity, or based on contract or otherwise) in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the Loan Documents, the making or issuance and management of the Loans, the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans and the enforcement of Agent and any Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Notes, the Loan Documents, any other instruments and documents delivered hereunder or

thereunder; provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party with respect to disputes between the Banks or between the Banks and the Agent not arising out of the wrongdoing of the Borrower or matters caused by or resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Parties shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practical to the Borrower in the event they become aware of a claim or potential claim for which they intend to seek indemnity under the provisions of this Section 14.5. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall satisfy such undertaking to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, cost or expense covered by this indemnity shall be paid to such Indemnified Party on demand, and failing prompt payment, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred by such Indemnified Party until paid by Borrower, shall be added to the obligations of Borrower evidenced by the Notes and secured by the collateral securing the Loans. This indemnity is not intended to excuse Agent or any Bank from performing hereunder. The provisions of this section shall survive the closing of the Loans, the satisfaction and payment of the Notes and any cancellation of this Agreement. Borrower shall also pay, and hold Agent and each Bank harmless from, any and all claims of any brokers, finders or agents claiming a right to any fees in connection with arranging the Loan. Each Bank hereby represents that it has not employed a broker or other finder in connection with the Loans. Borrower represents and warrants that no brokerage commissions or finder’s fees are to be paid in connection with the Loans.

In the event of any inconsistency among the terms hereof (including incorporated terms), or between such terms and the terms of any other Loan Document, Agent may elect which terms shall govern and prevail. If any provision of this Agreement, or any paragraph, sentence, clause, phrase or word, or the application thereof, in any circumstances, is adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the validity of the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid part were never included herein.
