(b)Whenever any monthly payment of interest and/or principal with respect to the Loan is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest and fees due hereunder.

(c)If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the Loan Documents, other than the payment of principal due on the Maturity Date, is not paid by Borrower within fifteen (15) days when due, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum in order to defray 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. Any such amount shall be secured by the Collateral. Borrower acknowledges that it would be extremely

difficult or impracticable to determine Lender’s actual damages resulting from any late payment and the aforementioned late charge is a reasonable estimate of those damages and does not constitute a penalty.

(d)The Loan is subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated, or required, to pay interest at a rate which could subject any Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of such rate being in excess of the maximum rate which such Lender is permitted to charge. If, by the terms of this Loan Agreement, the Note, or any of the other Loan Documents, Borrower is, at any time, required or obligated to pay interest at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, then the rate of interest under this Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and interest payable hereunder and under the Note shall be computed at such maximum rate and any portion of all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied, or shall retroactively be deemed to have been payments made, in reduction of the principal balance, as the case may be.

(e)Lender may, at its sole discretion, net out of any Advance amounts due to Lender for interest or otherwise under the Loan Documents.

(f)In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, the Lender will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Lender will promptly notify the Borrower of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.

2.03Repayment; Prepayment.

(a)Intentionally omitted.

(b)Borrower shall have the right, at its option, upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender, to voluntarily prepay the Loan in whole or in part, without penalty. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) shall be accompanied by all sums then due under this Loan Agreement (including, without limitation, Breakage Costs and the Minimum Interest Payment, if any). Lender shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment under this Section 2.03(b) unless it is accompanied by all other sums then due under this Loan Agreement.

(c)In the event Borrower receives a Principal Payment on the Collaterally Assigned Loan, then Borrower shall promptly (and in any event by not later than two (2) Business Days after receipt) pay such Principal Payment to Lender as a repayment or prepayment, as applicable, in reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan.

2.04Computations. Interest on the Loan shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year (or in the case of interest computed by reference to the ABR at times when the ABR is based on the Prime Rate, such interest shall be computed on the basis of a year in 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year)) for the actual days elapsed occurring in the relevant Interest Period. Lender shall determine any rate of interest payable on the Loan hereunder, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error.

2.05Extension Options.

(a)Borrower shall have two (2) successive options to extend the Initial Maturity Date of the Loan to (x) the First Extended Maturity Date, with respect to the first option (the period of such extension, the “First Extension Term”), and (y) the Second Extended Maturity Date, with respect to the second option (the period of such extension, the “Second Extension Term”). In order to exercise each such extension option, Borrower must cause each of the following conditions to be satisfied as determined by Lender in its sole discretion:

(i)Borrower shall have delivered to Lender written notice of its desire to exercise its extension option at least thirty (30) and not more than ninety (90) days prior to the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect;

(ii)no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing, in each case, on either the date of such notice or the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect;

(iii)Borrower shall have delivered to Lender a true and accurate certification from an authorized agent of Borrower (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be combined with any other certification then being provided by Borrower), stating that (i) each and every requirement contained in the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents required for an extension of the term of the Collaterally Assigned Loan has been satisfied and Lender shall have confirmed the satisfaction of each such requirement, and (ii) the applicable Extension Term shall not extend beyond the maturity date of the Collaterally Assigned Loan, as the same may be extended;

(iv)all representations and warranties of Borrower in this Loan Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on the date of such notice and on the Maturity Date as theretofore in effect, unless expressly stated to relate to a specific earlier date and except to the extent of changes approved by the Lender in its sole discretion;

(v)Borrower shall have made a deposit with the Reserve Bank in the Reserve Account in the amount as Lender determines is reasonably necessary to pay debt service on the Loan during the First Extension Term or the Second Extension Term, as applicable; and

(vi)Borrower shall have paid to Lender an extension fee equal to the product of (x) one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) and (y) the Adjusted Loan Balance as of the commencement of the First Extension Term or the Second Extension Term, as applicable.

2.06Limitation on Adjusted Term SOFR; Illegality. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding:

(a)In the event that Lender determines in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error) that: (A) adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted Term SOFR; (B) Adjusted Term SOFR does not accurately reflect the cost to Lender of the Loan; (C) a Regulatory Change (as hereinafter defined) shall, in the good faith determination of the Lender, make it unlawful or commercially unreasonable for the Lender to use SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or Term SOFR as the index for purposes of determining the Interest Rate; or (D) SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or Term SOFR has been asserted by any governmental agency or authority as unlawful to be utilized, then, subject to Section 2.08 below, the Loan shall bear interest at the ABR and shall be deemed an “ABR Loan” from and after the date of such

determination until such time as Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances described in (A) through (D) of this subsection no longer exist.

(b)In the event of any change in any Legal Requirement after the Effective Date or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the Effective Date:

(i)will impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirements against assets held by, letters of credit issued 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 Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of Adjusted Term SOFR hereunder; or

(ii)will impose on Lender any other condition affecting this Loan Agreement or the Loan;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of converting into, continuing or maintaining the Loan, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect of any of the foregoing, in any case by an amount that Lender reasonably deems to be material, and provided that Lender has made a similar demand on all similarly situated borrowers of Lender for which Lender has the right to make such demand, then, in any such case, Borrower shall pay to Lender within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a written demand of Lender (together with the written notice referred to in the following sentence), any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.06(b), it shall promptly notify Borrower in writing of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A notice as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) submitted by Lender to Borrower, which will demonstrate in reasonable detail the computation of such amounts, shall be conclusive evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded, absent manifest error. The obligations of Borrower under this Section 2.06(b) shall survive the termination of this Loan Agreement and the payment of the Loan and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(c)If, after the Effective Date, the introduction of or any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline (including, for this purpose and in each case, any applicable stock exchange rules or precatory guidance) regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by Lender or any Person controlling Lender, and Lender (taking into consideration Lender’s or its controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) reasonably determines that the amount of capital maintained by Lender or such Person that is attributable to or based upon the Loan or this Loan Agreement must be increased as a consequence of such introduction or change by an amount reasonably deemed by Lender to be material, and provided that Lender has made a similar demand on all similarly situated borrowers of Lender for which Lender has the right to make such demand, then, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a written demand of Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender for the increased costs to Lender of such increased capital (including as they affect Lender through any Person controlling Lender, if applicable). Any such written demand of Lender will provide in reasonable detail the computation of any such increased costs, which certificate shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. The obligations of Borrower under this Section 2.06(c) shall survive the termination of this Loan Agreement and the payment of the Note and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(d)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, in each case, shall be deemed to be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

(e)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.06 to the contrary, upon delivery of notice to Borrower of a demand for payment under this Section 2.06, Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loan and all obligations under the Loan Agreement in full within forty-five (45) days from Borrower’s receipt of such notice, in which event if Borrower prepays the Loan and all such other obligations in full within such forty-five (45) day period, then Borrower shall have no obligation under this Loan Agreement (i) with respect to any capital adequacy demand made in accordance with Section 2.06(c) hereof referenced in such notice or (ii) to pay the Minimum Interest Payment.

2.07Taxes.

(a)All payments made by Borrower to Lender (or its assignee) under this Loan Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings on such payments, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto imposed by any Governmental Authority thereof or therein (“Taxes”), excluding (i) income taxes, branch profits taxes, franchise taxes, withholding taxes or similar taxes imposed on Lender (or its assignee) by any jurisdiction to the extent such taxes are a result of any present or former connection between Lender (or its assignee) and such jurisdiction, other than any such connection arising solely from Lender (or its assignee) having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Loan Agreement, (ii) taxes described in the immediately preceding subclause (i) in excess of taxes imposed in respect of Lender as of the date of this Loan Agreement resulting from the future action of Lender not associated with the Loan, (iii) any taxes in effect as of the Effective Date imposed in respect of Lender (or its assignee) as a result of Lender’s intentional failure to provide Borrower with any necessary forms that would serve to reduce such taxes unless Lender is prohibited by applicable law from providing such forms to Borrower, and (iv) any taxes imposed under FATCA (all such Taxes not excluded by the preceding subclauses (i)-(iv) of this Section 2.07(a), “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any amount payable hereunder, (i) Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iii) with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes, the amount payable shall be increased by an amount (the “Additional Amount”) necessary so that Lender shall receive a net amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes been made.

(b)In addition, Borrower agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including, without limitation, mortgage recording taxes, transfer taxes and similar fees) imposed by the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Loan Agreement (“Other Taxes”).

If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

(ii)No swap agreement shall be deemed to be a "Loan Document" for purposes of this Section 2.08.

(e)Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower's receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a SOFR Loan or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or continuation as an ABR Loan bearing interest at the ABR.

Lender shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither Lender nor any of its officers, directors, or employees shall be responsible to Borrower for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non–appealable judgment.

5.05Performance by Lender of Borrower’s Obligations. If Borrower fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in the Loan Documents to which it is a party, then Lender may itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement. If an Event of Default does not then exist, then Lender shall exercise such right only if Lender determines that action is required to protect against an imminent threat of loss of value or lien priority. The Expenses of Lender incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate, shall be payable by Borrower to Lender on demand and shall constitute Secured Obligations.

5.06Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Collateral are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

5.07Release of Security Interest and/or Collateral. Upon termination of this Loan Agreement and indefeasible repayment to Lender of all Secured Obligations and the performance of all obligations under the Loan Documents, Lender shall release its security interest in any remaining Collateral. In the event Borrower prepays the Loan in full pursuant to the terms of this Loan Agreement, then Lender shall as soon as practicable release (and Lender shall reasonably cooperate with Borrower to facilitate reasonable escrow arrangements to facilitate a release of) the Collateral File and the Collateral and any Liens related thereto to Borrower. Lender shall, with reasonable promptness after a written notice from Borrower, execute any document or instrument necessary to effectuate such release.

Section 8.EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

8.01Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall be, and shall constitute the commencement of, an “Event of Default” hereunder (any Event of Default that has occurred shall continue unless and until waived by Lender in writing in its sole discretion):

(a)Payment.

(i)Borrower shall default, and such default shall continue for at least one (1) Business Day, in the payment when due of any principal or interest owing in respect of the Loan (other than such amounts due on the Maturity Date);

(ii)Borrower shall default, and such default shall continue for at least ten (10) days after notice to Borrower that such amounts are owing, in the payment when due of fees, expenses or other amounts owing hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (other than principal and interest owing in respect of the Loan); and

(iii)Borrower shall default in the payment of any principal or interest owing in respect of the Loan or any other amount owing hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents on the Maturity Date.

(b)Representations and Warranties.

(c)Other Loan Documents. Any Loan Document shall fail to be in full force and effect or to convey the material Liens, rights, powers and privileges purported to be created thereby; or a default by Borrower, Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates shall occur under any of the other Loan Documents beyond the

(h)Act of Insolvency. An Act of Insolvency shall have occurred with respect to Borrower or Guarantor.

(i)Guarantor’s Net Worth and Liquidity. Guarantor breaches the financial covenants under Section 5(a) of the Recourse Obligations Guaranty or Section 5(a) of the Guaranty of Funding Obligations.

(j)Default of Other Indebtedness. (A) Borrower shall have defaulted or failed to perform under any contract, agreement or transaction to which it is a party, and which default (1) involves the failure to pay a matured obligation in excess of Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000), or (2) involves an obligation of at least Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000) and is a monetary default or a material non-monetary default and results in acceleration, or permits the acceleration of, the obligation by any other party to or beneficiary of such contract agreement or transaction; (B) Guarantor shall have defaulted or failed to perform under any contract, agreement or transaction for Indebtedness to which it is a party, and which default materially impairs Guarantor’s ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party; provided, however, that any such default, failure to perform or breach shall not constitute an Event of Default if Borrower or Guarantor cures such default, failure to perform or breach, as the case may be, within the later to occur of (i) the grace period, if any, provided under the applicable agreement, and (ii) within five (5) Business Days after written notice to Borrower or Guarantor.

(n)[Intentionally Omitted].

(o)Other Covenants. A default shall occur in the due performance or observance by Borrower, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates, of any term, covenant or agreement (other than those referred to in any other subsection of this Section 8.01) contained in this Loan Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, except that in the case of a default that can be cured by the payment of money, such default shall not constitute an Event of Default unless and until it shall remain uncured for ten (10) days after Borrower receives written notice thereof; and in the case of a default that cannot be cured by the payment of money but is susceptible of being cured within thirty (30) days, as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, such default shall not constitute an Event of Default unless and until it remains uncured for thirty (30) days after Borrower receives written notice thereof, provided that within five (5) days of Borrower’s receipt of such written notice, Borrower delivers written notice to Lender of its intention and ability to effect such cure within such thirty (30) day period; and if such non-monetary default is not cured within such thirty (30) day period despite Borrower’s diligent efforts but is susceptible of being cured within ninety (90) days of Borrower’s receipt of Lender’s original notice, as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, then Borrower shall have such additional time as is reasonably necessary to effect such cure, but in no event in excess of ninety (90) days from Borrower’s receipt of Lender’s original notice, provided that prior to the expiration of the initial thirty (30) day period, Borrower delivers written notice to Lender of its intention and ability to effect such cure prior to the expiration of such ninety (90) day period.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.01, unless otherwise specified herein, a default by a Fee Owner under the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents shall not constitute, in and of itself, an “Event of Default” hereunder.

8.02Remedies Upon Default.

(a)Upon the occurrence of one or more Events of Default other than those referred to in Section 8.01(h), Lender may immediately declare the principal amount of the Loan then outstanding under the Note to be immediately due and payable, together with all interest thereon and fees and Expenses accruing under this Loan Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default referred to in Section 8.01(h), such amounts shall immediately and automatically become due and payable without any further action by any Person. Upon such declaration or such automatic acceleration, the balance then outstanding on the Note shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower. Interest at the Default Rate shall accrue as of the date of the occurrence of the Event of Default.

(b)If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the following rights and remedies shall be available to Lender:

(i)Lender shall have the right to instruct Fee Owner, Borrower or Servicer to turn over to Lender all proceeds of Collateral received by or on behalf of Borrower consisting of cash, checks and other like items (duly endorsed by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender, if required, in order to be negotiated by Lender), and to pay all Collections to Lender. Borrower shall hold all such proceeds in trust for Lender, segregated from other funds of Borrower and, within one (1) Business Day of receipt by or on behalf of Borrower, shall be turned over to Lender in the exact form received by such party. All such proceeds and Collections received by Lender shall be retained by Lender and applied by Lender to the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loan (whether matured or unmatured) and any other amounts owing by Borrower hereunder in such order as

Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lender shall have the right (but not obligation) in its sole discretion to advance proceeds of the Loan (without regard to any otherwise intended or agreed upon allocation pursuant to this Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents) to pay any interest then due and owing under the Loan, and Lender may in its sole and absolute discretion deem any related Event of Default cured as a result thereof. Any proceeds so advanced shall be deemed to be principal outstanding under this Loan Agreement and the Note and shall be due and owing by Borrower in accordance with the terms thereof. For purposes hereof, proceeds shall include, but not be limited to, all principal and interest payments, all prepayments and payoffs, insurance claims, condemnation awards, payments under the Mortgagee Title Policy, sale proceeds, real estate owned rents and any other income and all other amounts received with respect to the Collateral, including, any sums and/or fees received by Borrower from or on behalf of Fee Owner or any Underlying Guarantor.

(ii)Lender shall have the right to (x) record any assignments delivered in connection herewith (which assignments may be updated unilaterally by Lender to reflect any change in fact since the Effective Date (e.g., inserting names, dates, amounts, and recording information)) and Borrower shall deliver to Lender such additional assignments as Lender shall request and (y) attach any allonges held by Lender to the promissory notes which are related thereto. Lender shall be entitled to specific performance of all agreements of Borrower contained in this Loan Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02(b)(ii), Borrower shall cooperate with Lender as provided in Section 8.02(b)(iv) and Section 8.02(b)(v) hereof.

(iii)At Lender’s option, in its sole discretion, Lender shall have the rights set forth in Section 10.04(e) and 4.01(d) hereof.

(iv)Lender may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required herein or by law referred to below, if applicable) to or upon Borrower or any other Person (each and all of which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances, forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith, subject to any transfer restrictions set forth in the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents, sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing) at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem to be advisable and at such prices as it may deem to be best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Borrower, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. Borrower further agrees, at Lender’s request, to assemble the Collateral promptly and make it available to Lender at places which Lender shall reasonably select, whether at Borrower’s premises or elsewhere. Lender shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and Expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or

safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of Lender hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, in such order as Lender may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by Lender of any other amount required or permitted by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615 of the Uniform Commercial Code, need Lender account for the surplus, if any, to Borrower. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower waives all Damages it may accrue against Lender arising out of the exercise by Lender of any of its rights hereunder, other than those Damages arising from Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed to be reasonable and proper if such notice is given at least ten (10) days prior to such sale or other disposition. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency (plus accrued interest thereon as contemplated pursuant to Section 2.02(a) hereof) if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral (net of costs incurred in connection with such sale or other disposition) are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by Lender to collect such deficiency.

(v)Lender may, after at least ten (10) days’ notice to Borrower of Lender’s intent to take such action (provided that no such notice shall be required in the circumstances set forth in Section 9-611(d) of the Uniform Commercial Code), (A) immediately sell, at a public or private sale in a commercially reasonable manner and at such price or prices as Lender may reasonably deem to be satisfactory any or all of the Collaterally Assigned Loan or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of the Collaterally Assigned Loan, to give Borrower credit for the Collaterally Assigned Loan in an amount equal to the market value of the Collaterally Assigned Loan (as determined by Lender in its sole discretion) against the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loan and any other amounts owing by Borrower under the Loan Documents. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collaterally Assigned Loan effected pursuant to this Section 8.01(b)(v) shall be applied by Lender to the obligations of Borrower under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion.

(vi)The parties recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Collaterally Assigned Loan on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for the Collaterally Assigned Loan may not be liquid. In view of the nature of the Collaterally Assigned Loan, the parties agree that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, liquidation of the Collaterally Assigned Loan shall not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Accordingly, Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, the time and manner of liquidating the Collaterally Assigned Loan, and nothing contained herein shall (A) obligate Lender to liquidate the Collaterally Assigned Loan upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or to liquidate all of the Collaterally Assigned Loan in the same manner or on the same Business Day or (B) constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Lender.

(vii)Borrower shall be liable to Lender for the amount of all expenses, including legal fees and expenses, actually incurred by Lender in

connection with or as a consequence of an Event of Default and any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(viii)Lender may exercise any or all of the remedies available to Lender immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time during the continuance thereof. All rights and remedies arising under the Loan Documents, as amended from time to time, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that Lender may have.

(ix)Lender may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any defenses Borrower might otherwise have to require Lender to enforce its rights by judicial process. Borrower also waives any defense Borrower might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the Collaterally Assigned Loan or from any other election of remedies. Borrower recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

(x)Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Lender, Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Borrower and any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) in any currency, and any other obligation, credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from Lender or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit of the account of Borrower, including, without limitation, all amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account, to any obligations of Borrower hereunder to Lender.

(xi)Lender shall have, in addition to its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, all of the rights and remedies provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws as well as those provided in equity. Without limiting the generality of the immediately foregoing sentence, Lender shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the liquidation of the Collaterally Assigned Loan against all of Borrower’s obligations to Lender, whether or not such obligations are then due, without prejudice to Lender’s right to recover any deficiency.

8.03No Duty of Lender. The powers conferred on Lender hereunder are solely to protect Lender’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Lender shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and Lender shall not be responsible to Borrower for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non–appealable judgment.

8.04Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of Collateral. Lender’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Lender deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Lender nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, and none of Lender nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of Borrower or otherwise.

Section 9.MISCELLANEOUS.

9.01Waiver. No failure on the part of Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document operates as a waiver thereof, nor does any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Lender’s remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

9.02Notices. Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Loan Agreement, all notices, consents, approvals and requests required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be effective for all purposes if hand delivered or sent by (a) hand delivery, with proof of attempted delivery, (b) certified or registered United States mail, postage prepaid, (c) expedited prepaid delivery service, either commercial (such as Federal Express or UPS) or United States Postal Service, with proof of attempted delivery or (d) by email.

A notice shall be deemed to have been given: (i) in the case of hand delivery, at the time of delivery; (ii) in the case of registered or certified mail, when delivered or the first attempted delivery on a Business Day; (iii) in the case of expedited prepaid delivery upon the first attempted delivery on a Business Day and (iv) in the case of email, upon delivery of such email; provided, however, that such email Notice was also delivered by one of the means set forth in (a), (b) or (c) above (which may arrive after such email). A party receiving a notice that does not comply with the technical requirements for notice under this Section 9.02 may elect to waive any deficiencies and treat such notice as having been properly given. The parties shall have the right from time to time to change their respective addresses, and each shall have the right to specify as

its address any other address within the United States of America upon at least five (5) days prior written notice to the other party.

9.03Indemnification and Expenses.

(a)Borrower hereby agrees to hold Lender and its Affiliates, any successor owner or holder of the Loan or participations in the Loan, and each of their respective officers, partners, members, shareholders, directors, employees, representatives, agents and subsidiaries of any and all of the foregoing, (each, an “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and indemnify and defend the Indemnified Parties against any and all Damages (without duplication of any payments made by Borrower to reimburse Lender for Expenses required to be paid hereunder) that may at any time (including, without limitation, such time as this Loan Agreement shall no longer be in effect and the Loan shall have been repaid in full) be imposed on or asserted against any Indemnified Party in any way whatsoever arising out of or in connection with, or relating to, (i) this Loan Agreement, the Loan, the Mortgaged Property, the Collateral or any related property or any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Indemnified Party under or in connection with any of the foregoing (including actions taken by Lender pursuant to Sections 5.04 and 5.05 hereof), (ii) any claims by Fee Owner with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan, (iii) any violation or alleged violation of, non–compliance with or liability under any requirements of applicable law by Borrower, Guarantor or any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents, (iv) ownership of, Liens on, security interests in or the exercise of rights or remedies under any of the items referred to in the preceding clause (i), (v) any accident, injury to or death of any person or loss of or damage to property occurring in, on or about the Mortgaged Property or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, parking areas, streets or ways, (vi) any use, nonuse or condition in, on or about, or possession, alteration, repair, operation, maintenance or management of, the Mortgaged Property or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, parking areas, streets or ways, (vii) any failure by Borrower to perform or comply with any Loan Document or Collaterally Assigned Loan Document, (viii) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Mortgaged Property, (ix) any claim by brokers, finders or similar Persons claiming to be entitled to a commission in connection with any lease or other transaction involving Mortgaged Property, (x) any taxes attributable to the execution, delivery, filing or recording of any Loan Document, Collaterally Assigned Loan Document or any memorandum of any of the foregoing, (xi) any Lien or claim arising on or against the Collaterally Assigned Loan or Mortgaged Property under any applicable law or any liability asserted against Lender or any other Indemnified Party with respect thereto, (xii) any Release, use, generation, manufacture, storage, disposal, threatened disposal, transportation or presence of Hazardous Materials to, from, in, on, under, near or affecting the Mortgaged Property, (xiii) any term sheet or any business communications or dealings between the parties relating thereto, or (xiv) Borrower’s conduct, activities, actions and/or inactions in connection with, relating to or arising out of any of the foregoing clauses of this Section 9.03(a), that, in each case of (i) through (xiv) above, does not result from (A) such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non–appealable judgment, or (B) an act or omission (where Lender has a duty to act) of Lender or any other Indemnified Parties during Lender’s period of ownership of the Collaterally Assigned Loan (pursuant to Lender’s exercise of its remedies hereunder or transfer in lieu thereof or similar transaction). In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Lender in connection with the Collaterally Assigned Loan for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents, Borrower shall save, indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against all Damages suffered by Lender by reason of any

defense, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction or liability whatsoever of Fee Owner thereunder, arising out of a breach by Borrower of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such Fee Owner or its successors from Borrower. Borrower also agrees to reimburse an Indemnified Party as and when billed by such Indemnified Party for all such Indemnified Party’s Damages incurred in connection with the enforcement or the preservation of such Indemnified Party’s rights under this Loan Agreement and any other Loan Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby.

(b)Borrower covenants and agrees to pay as an Expense Reimbursement Amount all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with, and in accordance with this Loan Agreement, including, without limitation: (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Loan Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents, and any other documents or agreements executed in connection therewith and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower and Guarantor (including without limitation any opinions requested by Lender as to any legal matters arising under this Loan Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents); (ii) Borrower’s and Guarantor’s ongoing performance of and compliance with their respective agreements and covenants contained in this Loan Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents on the part of each to be performed or complied with on and after the Effective Date; (iii) Lender’s ongoing performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained in this Loan Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with on and after the Effective Date; (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Loan Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed in connection therewith or documents or matters requested by Lender; (v) securing Borrower’s, and/or Guarantor’s compliance with any requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document; (vi) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other taxes and similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting any lien in favor of Lender pursuant to this Loan Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Replacement Mortgage Documents; (vii) enforcing or preserving any rights, in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, Guarantor, this Loan Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents, the Collaterally Assigned Loan, the Mortgaged Property or any other security given for the Loan; (viii) all wiring fees; (ix) any acts performed or proposed to be performed by Lender at Borrower's request or wholly or partially for the benefit of Borrower (including, the preparation or review of amendments, assumptions, waivers, releases, requests for approval of Transfer, estoppel certificates or statements of amounts owing under any Secured Obligation); (x) any out-of-pocket costs incurred by Lender, necessary in Lender’s reasonable judgment, to protect or preserve the priority of, in each case, Lender’s liens securing the Secured Obligations; (xi) appraisals or inspections of the Mortgaged Property; when permissible pursuant to law applicable to Lender, any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender and its agents in responding to third-party legal process, subpoenas, or similar legal demands received by Lender and its agents as a result of or in relation to, in each case, the Loan, the Secured Obligations, the Loan Documents, or Borrower’s business with Lender; (xii) any reasonable and customary administrative fees charged by Lender; and/or (xiii) enforcing any obligations of, or collecting any payments due from, Borrower and/or Guarantor under this Loan Agreement, the Note, or the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan or Mortgaged Property or in connection

with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Loan Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings. Borrower also acknowledges and agrees that formal written appraisals of Mortgaged Property by a licensed independent appraiser may be required pursuant to this Loan Agreement, and/or may be required by Lender’s internal procedures and/or federal regulatory reporting requirements on an annual and/or specialized basis and that Lender may, at its option, require inspection of Mortgaged Property by an independent supervising architect and/or cost engineering specialist, and all of the foregoing shall be deemed Expense Reimbursement Amounts under this Loan Agreement. In addition, if Fee Owner or Borrower is undertaking a restoration or is performing any work at the Mortgaged Property that requires the obtaining of a building permit, then Borrower shall pay the costs of architects, engineers and other consultants retained by Lender to review the performance of such restoration or work. Any amounts payable to Lender pursuant to this Section 9.03(b) shall become immediately due and payable upon written demand and, if the same are not paid to Lender within ten (10) Business Days from the date of such written demand, shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of such written demand until the date such amounts have been paid. Any administrative fees owed to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be non-refundable, irrespective of the disposition of the request by Lender. Borrower shall have no expectation that Lender commence review of any matter or request prior to Borrower paying the required administrative fee and/or legal deposit referenced herein. In addition and without limitation to Lender’s right to recover all its out-of-pocket expenses from Borrower on demand as provided in this Section 9.03(b), Lender shall have the right to require Borrower to provide a legal deposit (i.e., payment in advance) before engaging outside counsel to do any legal work and to refresh that deposit, at Lender’s request, over the pendency of the matter. Borrower shall have no expectation that Lender commence any legal work with outside counsel prior to Borrower paying any legal deposit requested by Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, any reference in the Loan Documents to out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by Lender shall be construed, without limitation to other kinds of costs and expenses incurred by Lender, to include attorneys’ fees (i.e., outside counsel). Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, no provision specifically requiring payment of a fee, cost, or expense to Lender by Borrower, by being so affirmatively and specifically stated in any Loan Document, may be construed to limit Lender’s rights to payment pursuant to this Section 9.03 for any fee, cost, or expense, in each case, provided for by this Section 9.03, but not so specifically stated.

(c)The parties hereto agree that the relationship between Borrower and Lender shall be solely that of a debtor and a creditor. Lender shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to Borrower or any of its affiliates. Borrower on its own behalf (i) agrees that Lender shall not have any liability to Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for Damages suffered by Borrower and (ii) waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim against Lender for Damages suffered by Borrower (whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise), in each case, in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by this Loan Agreement, the other loan documents or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court that is binding on Lender, that such Damages suffered by Borrower were the result of acts or omissions on the part of Lender constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct. Whether or not such Damages suffered by Borrower are related to a claim that is subject to such waiver and whether or not such waiver is effective, Lender shall not have any liability with respect to, and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by

Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated or the relationship established by this Loan Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith or therewith or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith or therewith, unless it is determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court that is binding on Lender, that such Damages suffered by Borrower were the result of acts or omissions on the part of, or legally attributable to, Lender, as applicable, constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d)The obligations of Borrower under this Section 9.03 hereof shall survive, in each case, the repayment of the Loan and the termination of this Loan Agreement.

9.04Amendments. Any provision of this Loan Agreement may be modified or supplemented only by an instrument in writing signed by Borrower and Lender, and any provision of this Loan Agreement may be waived by Lender. Any amendment hereto shall be valid against Lender only if in writing executed by a duly authorized officer of Lender.

9.05Assignment; Successors and Assigns.

(a)The rights and obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall not be assigned, directly or indirectly and including any assignment by operation of law, by Borrower without the prior written consent of Lender, such consent to be granted or withheld in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. Any assignment or other transfer contrary to this Section 9.05(a) shall be null and void ab initio unless Lender subsequently ratifies its acceptance of such assignment in a written document, executed by a duly authorized officer of Lender, that states its express intent to ratify Lender’s acceptance of such assignment pursuant to this Section 9.05(a).

(b)Subject to the provisions of Section 9.05(d) below, Lender and each assignee of all or a portion of the Loan shall have the right from time to time in its discretion to sell, assign, transfer, dispose of, syndicate and/or securitize the Note or any interest therein (an “Assignment”) and/or sell a participation interest in the Note (a “Participation”); provided that, for so long as no Event of Default and/or Collaterally Assigned Loan Default shall exist, (i) Lender shall provide Borrower with at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice of any Assignment, (ii) Lender shall not consummate an Assignment to any Prohibited Lender Transferee; and (iii) Borrower, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.03(b) hereof, may prepay the Loan in full within three (3) Business Days after Lender provides the applicable notice described in clause (i) above, and, if Borrower shall so prepay the Loan in full, then Borrower shall not be required to pay the Minimum Interest Payment. Borrower shall reasonably cooperate with Lender, at Lender’s request, in order to effectuate any such Assignment or Participation, and Borrower shall promptly provide such information and documents as Lender may reasonably request in connection with such Assignment or Participation. For the avoidance of doubt, if an Event of Default and/or a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default shall exist, there shall be no restrictions of Lender’s rights with respect to Assignments and Participations. In the case of an Assignment, (i) each assignee shall have, to the extent of such Assignment, the rights, benefits and obligations of the assigning Lender as a “Lender” hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to an Assignment, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Loan Agreement. In connection with a Participation or an Assignment with respect to a portion (but not all) of the Loan, Lender shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, as non-fiduciary agent for Borrower, a register on which it shall enter the name or names of

the registered owner or owners from time to time of the Note. Upon effectiveness of any Assignment of the Note in part, Borrower will promptly provide to the assignor and the assignee separate Notes in the amount of their respective interests (but, if applicable, with a notation thereon that it is given in substitution for and replacement of an original Note or any replacement thereof), and otherwise in the form of such Note, upon return of the Note then being replaced. Subject to Section 9.23, each potential or actual assignee or participant, investor or rating agency shall be entitled to receive from Lender all information received by Lender under this Loan Agreement with respect to the Loan, Borrower, Guarantor and its principals. Borrower shall secure from any Guarantor any information reasonably requested by Lender pursuant to this Section 9.05(b). Notwithstanding anything in this Loan Agreement to the contrary, after an Assignment, the assigning Lender and the Indemnified Parties, in each case and as applicable, in addition to the assignee, shall continue to have the benefits of any indemnifications contained in this Loan Agreement that such assigning Lender had prior to such assignment with respect to matters occurring prior to the date of such assignment.

(c)If, pursuant to this Section, any interest in this Loan Agreement or the Note is transferred to any transferee, such transferee shall, promptly upon receipt of written request from Borrower, furnish to Borrower Form W-9, Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, as applicable.

(d)Subject to the foregoing, the Loan Documents and the Loan shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in the Loan Documents, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties to the Loan Documents and their respective permitted successors, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under the Loan Documents.

9.06Survival. Each representation and warranty made or deemed to be made herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and, except as otherwise provided herein, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived, by reason of making the Loan, any Default or Event of Default that may arise because any such representation or warranty shall have proved to be false or misleading.

9.08Counterparts. This Loan Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Loan Agreement by signing any such counterpart. This Loan Agreement may be effectuated by the exchange of electronic copies of signatures (e.g., .pdf), with electronic copies of this executed Loan Agreement having the same force and effect as original counterpart signatures hereto for all purposes.

9.10SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS. EACH OF LENDER AND BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY:

(a)SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS LOAN AGREEMENT, THE NOTE AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, AND THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF; PROVIDED HOWEVER, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR LEGAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY BORROWER OR GUARANTOR, SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR LEGAL PROCEEDING SHALL BE BROUGHT IN SUCH STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS OF NEW YORK;

(b)AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(d)AGREES TO ONLY BRING ACTION IN ITS OWN NAME AND NOT IN CONCERT WITH OR AS PART OF A CONCERTED STRATEGY WITH OTHERS.

(e)AGREES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF SECTIONS 9.10, 9.11, AND 9.16 HEREOF (i) REPRESENT PART OF THE BARGAINED FOR LEGAL DETRIMENT OF THIS LOAN AGREEMENT SPECIFICALLY INTENDED TO INDUCE LENDER TO MAKE THE LOAN AND (ii) PROVIDE MATERIAL BENEFITS TO THE LOAN PARTIES AND LENDER ALIKE HERETO IN PROMOTING EFFICIENT DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

9.11WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS LOAN AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. BORROWER, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ANY OTHER PERSON CLAIMING BY OR THROUGH BORROWER, AGREES TO BRING ANY CLAIMS ARISING UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AGAINST LENDER ONLY AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO PROCEED AGAINST ANY PARTY OTHER THAN LENDER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LENDER’S AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS.

9.12No Reliance; Disclaimers. Each of Lender and Borrower hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to the other that, in connection with the negotiation of, the entering into, and the performance under, the Loan Documents and the Loan thereunder:

(a)It is not relying (for purposes of making any investment decision or otherwise) upon any advice, counsel or representations (whether written or oral) of the other party to the Loan Documents, other than the representations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents.

(b)It has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial and accounting advisors to the extent that it has deemed to be necessary, and it has made its own investment, hedging and trading decisions (including decisions regarding the suitability of the Loan) based upon its own judgment and upon any advice from such advisors as it has deemed to be necessary and not upon any view expressed by the other party.

(c)It is a sophisticated and informed Person that has a full understanding of all the terms, conditions and risks (economic and otherwise) of the Loan Documents and the Loan thereunder and is capable of assuming and willing to assume (financially and otherwise) those risks.

(d)It is entering into the Loan Documents and the Loan thereunder for the purposes of managing its borrowings or investments or hedging its underlying assets or liabilities and not for purposes of speculation.

(e)It is not acting as a fiduciary or financial, investment or commodity trading advisor for the other party and has not given the other party (directly or indirectly through any other Person) any assurance, guaranty or representation whatsoever as to the merits (either legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial accounting or otherwise) of the Loan Documents or the Loan thereunder.

9.13Hypothecation. Nothing in this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall preclude Lender from pledging, repledging, hypothecating, or rehypothecating the Collateral or pledging its rights to payment hereunder in respect of the Loan, but no such transaction shall relieve Lender of its obligations hereunder, under any other Loan Document or under any other agreement entered into in connection herewith, to release the Collaterally Assigned Loan to Borrower pursuant to Section 5.07 of this Loan Agreement or otherwise affect the rights, obligations and remedies of any party to this Loan Agreement. Borrower shall not be liable for any costs incurred by Lender associated with any transaction undertaken by Lender in accordance with this Section 9.13.

9.14Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Loan Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Loan 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 Loan Agreement. If, and only if, a clause cannot be interpreted in a manner to be valid under applicable law, such provision deemed to be prohibited or invalid may be reformed to have the meaning as close as possible to the meaning provided in this Loan Agreement as long as such reformed meaning is consistent with the intent and purpose of this Loan Agreement to protect Lender’s interests regarding (i) full and timely repayment of the Loan; (ii) full and timely payment of any other sums owed to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; (iii) performance of the Secured Obligations; and (iv) Lender’s direct and indirect interests, in each case, in the Collateral. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular

action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

9.15Preferences; 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 the Loan Documents. 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. If any payment to Lender is 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 the obligations hereunder or portion thereof intended to be satisfied by such payment shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment had not been made. Borrower hereby waives any legal right otherwise available to Borrower that would require the sale of any Collateral either separate or apart from other Collateral, or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any Collateral before proceeding against any other Collateral. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.15, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower hereby waives and shall not assert any rights in respect of a marshalling of Collateral, a sale in the inverse order of alienation, any 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 Collateral or any portion thereof in any sequence and any combination as determined by Lender in its sole discretion.

9.16Offsets, 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 offsets, counterclaims or defenses, provided that this shall not affect any defense to enforcement and/or any right to require proper accounting for, and application of, amounts collected and/or collateral obtained by Lender. 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 Note, this Loan Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Secured Obligations. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in the Loan shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses against the assigning Lender. Further, nothing herein waives or affects Borrower’s right to assert claims or defenses against Lender or the applicable assignee by other means.

9.17Conflict; Construction of Documents. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Loan Agreement and the provisions of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Loan Agreement shall prevail. The parties acknowledge that they were each represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party that drafted same.

9.18Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower and Lender each represent to the other that neither of them (and in the case of Borrower, neither Borrower nor the Guarantor) has dealt with any financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders or other person who may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement. Borrower and Lender each agree to indemnify and hold the other 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 its behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Loan Agreement. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration and termination of this Loan Agreement and the repayment of the Loan.

9.19Estoppel Certificates. Borrower shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lender, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Lender’s written request therefor at any time from time to time, a statement in writing setting forth (A) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (B) the date on which installments of interest and/or principal were last paid, (C) any offsets or defenses to the repayment of the Loan, (D) that the Note, this Loan Agreement, and the other Loan Documents are valid, legal and binding obligations and have not been modified or if modified, giving particulars of such modification, (E) that neither Borrower nor, to Borrower’s knowledge, Lender, is in default under the Loan Documents (or specifying any such default) and (F) such other matters as Lender may reasonably request. Any prospective purchaser of any interest in the Loan shall be permitted to rely on such certificate.

9.20No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender, Borrower, the Guarantor and the Indemnified Parties any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein (it being understood that any rights of Guarantor and the Indemnified Parties are limited to as expressly provided herein and that there are no generally third party beneficiaries, express or limited, under the Loan Documents). 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 has 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 may 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.

9.21Prior Agreements. THIS LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTAIN THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO IN RESPECT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY, AND ALL PRIOR AND CONTEMPORANEOUS AGREEMENTS AMONG OR BETWEEN SUCH PARTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, INCLUDING ANY TERM SHEETS, CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENTS AND COMMITMENT LETTERS, ARE SUPERSEDED BY THE TERMS OF THIS LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. BORROWER AND LENDER MUTUALLY AGREE THAT THERE ARE NO, NOR SHALL THERE BE ANY, IMPLIED COVENANTS OF GOOD FAITH AND FAIR DEALING OR OTHER SIMILAR COVENANTS OR AGREEMENTS IN THIS LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. ALL AGREED CONTRACTUAL DUTIES ARE SET FORTH IN THIS LOAN AGREEMENT, THE NOTE AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

9.22Schedules and Exhibits Incorporated. The Schedules and Exhibits annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Loan Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

9.23Confidentiality. Each of Lender and Borrower agrees, and agrees to cause each of its Affiliates (i) not to transmit or disclose (A) in the case of disclosure by Borrower, any provision of any Loan Document or any non-public information of Lender (collectively, the “Lender Information”), or (B) in the case of disclosure by Lender, Guarantor’s financial statements (collectively, the “Borrower Information”, Lender Information or Borrower Information, as applicable, “Information”) to any Person (other than to such disclosing party’s Affiliates, advisors, officers, and, in the case of disclosure by Lender, (x) to Lender’s or its Affiliates’ lenders, funding or financing sources, directors, trustees, partners, members, managers, employees, advisors, representatives, attorneys, equity owners, professional consultants, portfolio management services and rating agencies, (y) prospective or actual

purchasers, assignees, servicers, regulators or participants, and (z) any Person that provides statistical analysis and/or information services to Lender or its Affiliates) without the other party’s prior written consent, except that each party shall have the right to disclose any and all Information to any Governmental Authority if requested by such Governmental Authority or if required pursuant to legal or judicial process or otherwise pursuant to applicable law, and (ii) to inform all Persons that receive Information of the confidential nature of the Information and to direct them not to disclose the same to any other Person. Borrower shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates not to, use Lender’s name (or the name of any Lender’s Affiliates) in connection with any press releases or such similar purposes without Lender’s prior written consent. For the purpose of this Section, “Information” shall not include such portions of the Information that (a) are or become generally available to the public other than as a result of a wrongful disclosure by the disclosing party, its directors, officers, employees or advisors or (b) become available to the disclosing party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the other party or its agents, and which source is not known to the disclosing party to be prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation to the other party hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower agrees that Lender and any of its Affiliates may (x) disclose a general description of transactions arising under the Loan Documents for advertising, marketing or other similar purposes and (y) use Borrower or its Affiliates’ name, logo or other indicia germane to such party in connection with such advertising, marketing or other similar purposes.

9.24PATRIOT Act Records. Lender hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower and Guarantor, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and Guarantor and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrower and Guarantor in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

Section 10.COLLATERALLY ASSIGNED LOAN AND COLLATERALLY ASSIGNED LOAN DOCUMENTS

10.01Representations Regarding the Collaterally Assigned Loan. Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lender that from and after the date hereof and, except as otherwise provided below, throughout the term of this Loan Agreement:

(a)Delivery of Collateral File. On or prior to the Effective Date, true, correct and complete originals of all the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents, the remainder of the entire Collateral File and any other documents required to be delivered under this Loan Agreement for the Collaterally Assigned Loan have been delivered to or at the direction of Lender.

(b)Ownership and Status of Collaterally Assigned Loan. The Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents are listed on Schedule 1 to this Loan Agreement and the Collaterally Assigned Loan is not secured by any collateral other than the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents. Borrower has good and marketable title to, and is the sole owner of, the Collaterally Assigned Loan free and clear of any Liens on, in or to the Collaterally Assigned Loan. Borrower has full right, power and authority to pledge and assign such Collateral free and clear of any interest or claim of any third party or any Affiliate of Borrower and Borrower has not assigned, pledged, or otherwise conveyed or encumbered any interest in the Collateral to any Person (other than Lender) including, without limitation, any participation interest. Each document in the Collateral File to which Fee Owner or any Underlying Guarantor is a party constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Fee Owner or Underlying Guarantor. Except by written instruments set forth in the Collateral File, (i) the terms of the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, amended, supplemented, altered, released, satisfied, canceled, terminated, subordinated or

rescinded in any manner; (ii) neither the Mortgaged Property nor any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the Collaterally Assigned Mortgage; and (iii) neither Fee Owner nor any Underlying Guarantor has been released by Borrower from its obligations under the applicable Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents.

(c)First Lien; Valid Assignment. The Collaterally Assigned Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the Fee Owner’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property in the outstanding principal amount of the Collaterally Assigned Loan (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances). To Borrower’s knowledge, no rights exist which under law could give rise to any mechanics’ liens, materialmen’s liens and other similar encumbrances that would be prior to or equal with the lien of such Collaterally Assigned Mortgage. Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Collaterally Assigned Loan establishes and creates a valid and enforceable lien on property described therein. The Collaterally Assigned ALR creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to Fee Owner to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property. The Collaterally Assigned Mortgage provides for, upon the occurrence of a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default, the appointment of a receiver for the collection of rents or for the related mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the mortgagee. The Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents establish a valid security interest in, and a UCC-1 financing statement has been filed and/or recorded (or, in the case of fixtures, the applicable Mortgage constitutes a fixture filing) in all places necessary to perfect a valid security interest in, the personal property owned by Fee Owner (creation and perfection of which is governed by the Uniform Commercial Code and for which the filing and/or recording of a UCC-1 financing statement may perfect such security interest) and necessary to operate the Mortgaged Property in its current use. The provisions of this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are effective to create in favor of Lender a valid security interest in all right, title and interest of Borrower in, to and under the Collateral. Upon (i) receipt by Lender of the Collateral File and (ii)  the filing of a UCC-1 financing statement naming Lender as “Secured Party” and Borrower as “Debtor” and describing the Collateral, as necessary, Lender shall have a fully perfected first priority security interest in all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Collateral.

(d)Compliance with Laws. The Collaterally Assigned Loan and the Collateral File are in compliance with the requirements of all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders now in effect of any applicable Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, all Hazardous Materials Laws).

(e)Outstanding Balance. As of the Effective Date, the outstanding principal balance under the Collaterally Assigned Loan is $0.00 and payments of interest on the Collaterally Assigned Note have been paid in full through the Effective Date.

(f)Offsets or Defenses. There is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to Fee Owner with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents that would deny Borrower the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents.

(g)Hazardous Materials. Borrower has delivered to Lender true, correct and complete copies of all Phase I environmental site assessments, Phase II environmental site assessments (if applicable) or other environmental reports reasonably

requested by Lender, and all other environmental assessments and reports received by Borrower with respect to the Mortgaged Property. Except as disclosed in any such Phase I environmental site assessments, Phase II environmental site assessments or other environmental assessments and reports provided by Borrower, Borrower has not received written notification of potential or known liability from any Governmental Authority relating to any Hazardous Materials on or affecting the Mortgaged Property or any violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws arising from the ownership or operation of the Mortgaged Property, including relating to wetlands or the past or present contamination, presence, use, storage, handling, transportation, treatment, disposal, or release of Hazardous Materials.

(h)Cross Collateralization. The Mortgaged Property does not secure the repayment of any loans or any Indebtedness other than the Collaterally Assigned Loan.

(i)No Subordinate Liens. Except for Permitted Encumbrances, neither Borrower nor its Affiliates have consented to any subordinate lien encumbering the Mortgaged Property. There are no preferred equity interests held by Borrower or its Affiliates in Fee Owner. There is no mezzanine debt related to the Mortgaged Property.

(j)Title Insurance. The Collaterally Assigned Loan is insured under the Mortgagee Title Policy. The Mortgagee Title Policy is in full force and effect and all premiums thereon have been paid. Borrower has not done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under the Mortgagee Title Policy. No claims have been made under the Mortgagee Title Policy, and to Borrower’s knowledge, no prior holder or Servicer of the Collaterally Assigned Mortgage, including Borrower, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of the Mortgagee Title Policy. Borrower has not failed to disclose any fact to the issuer of the Mortgagee Title Policy that, if not disclosed, would have a material adverse effect on Borrower’s rights under the Mortgagee Title Policy. There are no restrictions in the Mortgagee Title Policy that would prevent the Mortgagee Title Policy from inuring to the benefit of Lender, including as successor to Borrower’s interest.

(k)Taxes and Assessments. To Borrower’s knowledge, all taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) due with respect to the Mortgaged Property that is or could become a lien on such Mortgaged Property that became due and owing prior to the date hereof with respect to such Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by an escrow of funds or other security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real property taxes and assessments shall not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon.

(l)Casualty and Condemnation. The Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake, flood or other casualty so as to affect adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Collaterally Assigned Loan or the use for which the premises were intended. There is no proceeding pending or, to Borrower’s knowledge, in each case, threatened, regarding the total or partial condemnation of any of the Mortgaged Property.

(m)Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments required pursuant to the Collaterally Assigned Loan (including capital improvements and

environmental remediation reserves) are in the possession, or under the control, of Borrower, and there are no material deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith.

(n)No Default. To Borrower’s knowledge, there is (i) no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Collaterally Assigned Loan, or (ii) no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration by any party thereunder.

(o)Bankruptcy. To Borrower’s knowledge, neither the Mortgaged Property nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and neither Fee Owner nor any Underlying Guarantor is a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(p)Servicing. The servicing and collection of the Collaterally Assigned Loan by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower and by any Servicers engaged by Borrower has complied in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations and was in all material respects legal, proper and prudent, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Borrower or any Servicer engaged by or on behalf of Borrower has sufficient resources to monitor and obtain information regarding the performance of the Collaterally Assigned Loan such that Borrower will receive actual notice of any circumstance that would render materially false any representation or warranty made pursuant to this Section 10.01.

(q)Advance of Funds by Borrower. No advance of funds has been made by Borrower to Fee Owner other than in accordance with the applicable Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents, and, to Borrower’s knowledge, no funds have been received from any Person other than Fee Owner or an affiliate of Fee Owner for, or on account of, payments due on the Collaterally Assigned Loan (other than as contemplated by the applicable Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents, such as, by way of example and not in limitation of the foregoing, amounts paid by the tenant(s) into a lender-controlled lockbox if required or contemplated under the lease or the applicable Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents).

(r)Litigation. To Borrower’s knowledge, there is no pending, filed or threatened action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving the Fee Owner, any Underlying Guarantor or the Mortgaged Property.

(s)No Reliance on Lender. Borrower is experienced in the making and servicing of loans similar to the Collaterally Assigned Loan and Borrower and Lender have and are relying solely upon Borrower’s expertise and business plan in connection with the making and servicing of the Collaterally Assigned Loan. Borrower is not relying on Lender’s expertise or business acumen in connection with the Collateral or the Collaterally Assigned Loan.

(t)Knowledge. Borrower’s statements made in this Section 10.01 “to Borrower’s knowledge” shall include Borrower’s actual and inquiry notice, in each case, of such circumstances.

10.02Covenants Regarding the Collaterally Assigned Loan. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that, so long as the Loan is outstanding and until payment in full of all Secured Obligations:

(a)Conversion of Mortgaged Property to REO Property. Borrower shall not Convert the Mortgaged Property to REO Property without satisfaction of the Conversion Conditions. Further, Borrower shall only declare the Collaterally Assigned Note to be immediately due and payable, bring any action to foreclose the lien of the Collaterally Assigned Mortgage, conduct a foreclosure sale pursuant to a power of sale, accept a deed (or assignment) in lieu of foreclosure, appoint a receiver for the collection of rents or other revenue, file or approve any plan in any bankruptcy proceeding involving Fee Owner, Pledgor, Underlying Guarantors, the Mortgaged Property or the Fee Owner Equity Interests, bring any suit on the Collaterally Assigned Note to collect the debt thereunder or consent to a forbearance agreement as permitted by and in accordance with Section 10.06(a) hereof.

(b)Servicing. Borrower shall cause the Collaterally Assigned Loan to be serviced in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and shall perform its obligations as “lender” and “agent” under the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents. Borrower shall diligently enforce the performance and observance of each and every condition and covenant of Fee Owner and Underlying Guarantors under the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents, including but not limited to, the obligation to make payments in accordance with the Collaterally Assigned Note and the other Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents and the covenants pertaining to the ownership, construction, operation and maintenance of the Mortgaged Property.

(c)Amendments and Modifications to the Collaterally Assigned Loan. Borrower shall not make, or consent or assent to, or permit Servicer or any other party to make, or consent or assent to, an amendment, modification, waiver, full or partial release or termination to the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents without the prior written consent of Lender, such consent to be granted or withheld in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. In all events, Borrower shall not permit a subordination of the Lien of the Collaterally Assigned Mortgage to any Lien that is not a Permitted Encumbrance. Further, Borrower shall not waive or release Fee Owner or any Underlying Guarantor from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or condition under the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents.

(i)within five (5) Business Days after receipt or issuance, the following:

(A)copies of any and all notices (x) received from Fee Owner or Underlying Guarantors, any of their Affiliates or any other Person with respect to any of the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents, the Mortgaged Property, the Collateral, the Fee Owner, the Underlying Guarantors or any or all of them and (y) provided by Borrower or any of its Affiliates to Fee Owner or Underlying Guarantors, any of their Affiliates or any other Person with respect to any of the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents or the Mortgaged Property;

(B)copies of any and all documents, reports, inspections or notices with respect to the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, any draw request, tax statements, assessments, notices of violation, notices of rezoning, rent rolls, operating statements, annual balance sheets, annual budgets and any other financial information provided by Fee Owner or Underlying Guarantors to Borrower in accordance with the provisions of the Collaterally Assigned Loan Agreement or the

(g)Waiver of Defenses of Fee Owner and Underlying Guarantors. Borrower hereby waives any right Borrower may have, if any, to assert any defenses or claims, in each case, of the Fee Owner or any party claiming by or through the Fee Owner, against Lender. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, Borrower specifically acknowledges that no determination, in each case, of commercial impracticability, frustration of purpose, or other doctrine in law or equity regarding the Collaterally Assigned Loan and the documentation thereof may be construed to allow Borrower to avoid any obligation under the Loan Documents; for the avoidance of doubt, any impairment of the Mortgaged Property, including any that may be construed to make the Mortgaged Property commercially impracticable or frustrate the purpose of the Mortgaged Property, shall not be construed to mean that Borrower’s payment and performance obligations under the Loan Documents have been made commercially impracticable or that the purpose of the Loan has been frustrated. For the further avoidance of doubt and without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Section 10.02(g), includes circumstances affecting the Mortgaged Property, the Fee Owner or the Underlying Guarantors, in each case, related to Hazardous Materials Laws. The parties agree that the provisions of this Section 10.02(g) represent a bargained for allocation of risk between the parties hereto. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that Borrower understands the allocation of risk contained in this Section 10.02(g) and that Borrower and party claiming by or through Borrower, in each case, shall be estopped from asserting against Lender any defenses or claims that the Fee Owner and/or the Underlying Guarantors may have against Borrower, Lender, or any other Person.

(h)Collaterally Assigned Loan Default.

(i)From and after the occurrence of a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default, interest shall accrue at the increased Interest Rate (as more specifically provided in the definition of “Interest Rate’) or the Default Rate, as applicable. A Collaterally Assigned Loan Default shall constitute a Continuing Collaterally Assigned Loan Default hereunder unless, within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Collaterally Assigned Loan Default and after giving effect to any notice or cure period with respect thereto under the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents, either (1) Borrower fully repays the Loan in accordance with Section 2.03 above or (2) the following conditions are satisfied: (A) either (x) the Loan to Value Ratio of the Mortgaged Property (based on an Appraisal dated not earlier than thirty (30) days immediately before and not later than fifteen (15) days immediately following the occurrence of the Collaterally Assigned Loan Default) does not exceed fifty percent (50%) or (y) in the event the Loan To Value Ratio fails to satisfy clause (x) above, Borrower, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such Appraisal, prepays the Loan in an amount that would cause the Loan to Value Ratio to be equal to or less than fifty percent (50%); (B) Borrower funds the Reserve Account in the amount as Lender determines is necessary to pay debt service on the Loan through the date that is one hundred

eighty (180) days following the occurrence of such Collaterally Assigned Loan Default; (C) Borrower reaffirms its obligation to enforce the terms of the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents in accordance with the terms thereof and this Loan Agreement; (D) Borrower shall commence, and thereafter diligently pursue, an action to foreclose on the Mortgaged Property or accept a deed-in-lieu thereof, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement and deliver to Lender copies of all documentation reasonably requested by Lender with respect to such foreclosure action, deed-in-lieu or secured party sale; and (E) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and be continuing. Failure to comply with any of the foregoing shall constitute an immediate Event of Default hereunder.

(ii) Additionally, regardless of Borrower’s satisfaction of clauses (h)(i)(2)(A) – (E), a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default shall constitute an Continuing Collaterally Assigned Loan Default and an Event of Default hereunder within one hundred eighty (180) days of the occurrence of a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default; provided that such initial one hundred eighty (180) day period may be extended by an additional one hundred eighty (180) days if the following conditions are satisfied prior to the expiration such initial one hundred eighty (180) day period: (A) either (x) the Loan to Value Ratio of the Mortgaged Property (based on an Appraisal dated not earlier than thirty (30) days immediately before and not later than fifteen (15) days immediately following the commencement of such additional one hundred eighty (180) day period) does not exceed fifty percent (50%) or (y) in the event the Loan To Value Ratio fails to satisfy clause (x) above, Borrower, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such Appraisal, prepays the Loan in an amount that would cause the Loan to Value Ratio to be equal to or less than fifty percent (50%); (B) Borrower funds the Reserve Account in the amount as Lender determines is necessary to pay debt service on the Loan through such additional one hundred eighty (180) day period; (C) Borrower reaffirms its obligation to enforce the terms of the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents in accordance with the terms thereof and this Loan Agreement; (D) Borrower has commenced, and is diligently pursuing, an action to foreclose on the Mortgaged Property or accept a deed-in-lieu thereof in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement and deliver to Lender copies of all documentation reasonably requested by Lender with respect to such foreclosure action, deed-in-lieu or secured party sale; and (E) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and be continuing. Failure to comply with any of the foregoing shall constitute an immediate Event of Default hereunder.

10.03Additional Collateral and Further Information.

(a)Borrower acknowledges that Lender has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan and Borrower, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and Borrower agrees that upon reasonable prior written notice, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing in which case no notice is required, to Borrower, Lender or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Collateral File and any and all documents, information, records and reports relating to the Collaterally Assigned Loan in the possession or under the control of Borrower. Borrower also shall make available to Lender a knowledgeable officer or representative during normal business hours for the purpose of answering questions with respect to the Collateral File and the Collaterally Assigned Loan. Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit agents, representatives and employees of

Lender to inspect the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof at reasonable business hours upon reasonable advance written notice. Borrower further agrees that Borrower shall pay all reasonable Expenses incurred by Lender in connection with Lender’s activities pursuant to this Section 10.03, excluding, however, any internal administrative and underwriting costs of Lender.

(b)From time to time, Borrower shall forward to Lender additional original documents or additional documents evidencing any assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of the Collaterally Assigned Loan approved or entered into in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement. With respect to any documents which have been delivered or are being delivered to recording offices for recording and have not been returned to Borrower in time to permit their delivery hereunder at the time required, in lieu of delivering such original documents, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a true copy thereof with an Officer’s Certificate certifying, to Borrower’s knowledge, that such copy is a true, correct and complete copy of the original, which has been transmitted for recordation. Borrower shall deliver such original documents to Lender promptly when they are received. With respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan, Borrower hereby appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact effective only during the continuation of an Event of Default with full power to (i) complete and record any Assignment of Deed of Trust and/or Assignment of Assignment of Leases and Rents, (ii) complete the endorsement of any Collaterally Assigned Note, and (iii) take such other steps as may be necessary or desirable to enforce Lender’s rights against the Collaterally Assigned Loan and the Collateral File and the Servicing Records. All or any portion of the Collateral File not delivered to Lender or its designee are and shall be held by Borrower or its designee for the benefit of Lender as the holder of a first priority security interest therein. Borrower or its designee shall maintain a copy of the Collateral File and the originals of the Collateral File not delivered to Lender or its designee. The possession of the Collateral File by Borrower or its designee is at the will of Lender for the sole purpose of servicing the Collaterally Assigned Loan, and such retention and possession by Borrower or its designee is in a custodial capacity only.

(c)If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collaterally Assigned Loan shall be or become evidenced by any promissory note, other instrument or chattel paper (as each of the foregoing is defined under the Uniform Commercial Code), such promissory note, instrument or chattel paper shall be immediately delivered to Lender or its designee, duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to Lender or if any collateral or other security shall subsequently be delivered to Borrower in connection with the Collaterally Assigned Loan, Borrower shall immediately deliver or forward such item of collateral or other security to Lender, together with such instruments of assignment as Lender may request.

(d)Borrower shall not accept a letter of credit or additional collateral unless Borrower has (i) caused Lender to have a perfected security interest in such letter of credit or additional collateral in accordance with the terms specified by Lender, (ii) has provided to Lender documentation reasonably acceptable to Lender evidencing Lender’s security interest, (iii) has delivered such letter of credit and/or additional collateral, as applicable, to Lender, together with reasonable supporting documentation relating thereto, and (iv) has collaterally assigned to Lender all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the letter of credit and/or additional collateral as additional collateral for the Loan;

10.04Servicing.

(a)Borrower covenants to maintain or cause the servicing of the Collaterally Assigned Loan to be maintained in conformity with Accepted Servicing Practices. Borrower shall, or shall cause Servicer to (i) comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, (ii) maintain all state and federal licenses necessary for it to perform its servicing responsibilities hereunder and (iii) not impair the rights of Lender in the Collaterally Assigned Loan or any payment thereunder. Lender may terminate the servicing of the Collaterally Assigned Loan with the then existing servicer in accordance with Section 10.04(e) hereof.

(b)If the Collaterally Assigned Loan, or any portion thereof, is serviced or subserviced by Borrower, (i) Borrower acknowledges that Lender is the collateral assignee of all Servicing Rights and servicing records, including but not limited to any and all servicing agreements, files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals, other closing documentation, payment history records, and any other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of the Collaterally Assigned Loan (the “Servicing Records”) and (ii) Borrower shall (or shall cause Servicer to) safeguard all Servicing Records so long as the Collaterally Assigned Loan are subject to this Loan Agreement and, at Lender’s request during the continuance of an Event of Default, shall promptly deliver (or cause Servicer to promptly deliver) all such Servicing Records to Lender or its designee.

(c)If the Collaterally Assigned Loan, or any portion thereof, are serviced or subserviced by a third party Servicer or sub-servicer, Borrower shall (i) include in the Servicing Agreement such matters as Lender may reasonably request, including, without limitation, (w) Lender’s rights to indemnification and to recovery against any Servicer or sub-servicers insurance; (x) recognition by the Servicer of Lender’s security interest in the Collaterally Assigned Loan; (y) rights of Lender, upon reasonable and customary advance written notice, to inspect the books and records of the Servicer with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan; and (z) the Servicer’s agreement that upon receipt of notice of an Event of Default from Lender, it will only follow the instructions of Lender with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan and any Collections with respect thereto and (ii) cause the Servicer and any sub-servicers engaged by Borrower to execute a letter agreement with Lender acknowledging Lender’s security interest in the Collaterally Assigned Loan and the Servicing Agreement and agreeing that such Servicer or sub-servicer shall apply all Collections with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan as directed by Lender. Any successor to the Servicer or any sub-servicer shall be approved in writing by Lender prior to such successor’s assumption of servicing obligations with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan.

(d)Borrower shall not, and shall not permit Servicer to, employ sub-servicers to service the Collaterally Assigned Loan without the prior written approval of Lender which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Collaterally Assigned Loan is serviced by a sub-servicer, Borrower shall irrevocably assign all rights, title and interest in the servicing agreement with such sub-servicer to Lender.

(e)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder or a default by the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement (to the extent a Servicing Agreement then exists), Lender shall have the right to immediately terminate, and/or to require Borrower to immediately terminate, Borrower’s, the Servicer’s and/or any sub-servicer’s right to service the Collaterally Assigned Loan and

Lender shall not be responsible for payment of any penalty or termination fee, and shall have the right to appoint a successor servicer acceptable to Lender. Borrower shall, and shall cause Servicer and any sub-servicer to, cooperate in transferring the servicing of the Collaterally Assigned Loan to a successor servicer appointed by Lender in its sole discretion.

(f)If Borrower discovers that, for any reason whatsoever, any entity responsible to Borrower by contract for managing or servicing the Collaterally Assigned Loan has failed to materially perform Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents or any of the material obligations of such entities with respect to the Collaterally Assigned Loan, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender.

(g)Borrower shall cause the Servicer and any sub-servicer to provide a copy of each report and notice sent to Borrower to be sent to Lender concurrently therewith.

(h)Borrower shall be responsible for paying all costs, fees and expenses payable to the Servicer and any sub-servicer for services performed pursuant to the Servicing Agreement or otherwise.

(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall control over any and all contrary, conflicting or otherwise incompatible terms contained in the Servicing Agreement.

10.05Protective Advances. In the event of the failure of Fee Owner to pay taxes, insurance premiums, costs, or any other charges required by the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents to be paid by Fee Owner that may become liens against the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or otherwise if determined by Borrower to be commercially prudent in order to construct the Mortgaged Property or preserve the collateral for the Collaterally Assigned Loan or to otherwise protect or enforce Borrower’s liens and security interests under the Collaterally Assigned Mortgage and other Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents or otherwise to pay for expenditures that are emergency in nature and that the Borrower believes are reasonably necessary to prevent personal injury, loss of life, material damage or substantial economic harm to the Mortgaged Property (any such amount, a “Protective Advance”), Borrower shall notify Lender of the amount estimated by Borrower to be required under this Section 10.05, together with supporting documentation related thereto. Additionally, Lender may independently learn and determine that a Protective Advance is required and may notify Borrower of the amount estimated by Lender to be required under this Section 10.05. In either such case, Borrower shall promptly advance to or on behalf of Fee Owner such Protective Advance. In the event that (x) Borrower does not advance such Protective Advance within ten (10) days after notification to Lender and/or request from Lender, or (y) Lender reasonably believes such Protective Advance is commercially prudent in order to preserve the collateral for the Collaterally Assigned Loan or otherwise pay for expenditures that are emergency in nature and that Lender believes are reasonably necessary to prevent personal injury, loss of life, material damage or substantial economic hard to the Mortgaged Property, or prevent a lapse of insurance coverage, Lender may, but is not obligated to, make such Protective Advance. All Protective Advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by the Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Section 10.05, together with interest on those amounts at the Default Rate, from the time paid by the Lender until repaid by the Borrower, are deemed to be principal outstanding under this Loan Agreement and the Note.

10.06Enforcement of Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents.

(a)Borrower shall have the right, without the prior consent of Lender, to accelerate the Collaterally Assigned Loan and commence and prosecute a foreclosure proceeding (including the appointment of a receiver or other typical appointments or proceedings) or accept a deed-in-lieu (each of which are subject to the remainder of this Section 10.06(a)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, while there exists a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default, Borrower shall not take any other action under the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents without the Lender’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding anything herein or in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, Borrower may not complete a foreclosure action on the Mortgaged Property or the Fee Owner Equity Interests or accept a deed (or assignment)-in-lieu thereof, in each case, and thereby Convert the Mortgaged Property to REO Property, unless and until such time as Borrower and Lender have entered into Replacement Mortgage Documents and Replacement Guaranties, which Replacement Mortgage Documents and Replacement Guaranties shall be held in escrow and may be recorded by Lender against the Mortgaged Property in Lender’s sole discretion following the Conversion of the Mortgaged Property to REO Property. Borrower hereby agrees to execute, procure and deliver the Replacement Mortgage Documents, Replacement Guaranties, customary corporate authority documents, organizational documents and legal opinions relating to the Conversion, the Replacement Mortgage Documents and the Replacement Guaranties, and any and all such documents and instruments as Lender may reasonably require to evidence such first lien and security interest, including without limitation, a loan policy of title insurance insuring the validity and priority of such lien on the Mortgaged Property (unless, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, the existing mortgage title policy insuring Borrower, as lender, insures Lender as a successor and assign).

(b)At a foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged Property or the Fee Owner Equity Interests in which there are no third-party bidders, Borrower shall place a credit bid and/or announce an upset price in an amount it shall determine in its commercially reasonable business discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, unless otherwise consented to by Lender (which consent shall be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender), if there are any third-party bidders at such foreclosure sale, Borrower shall place a credit bid in excess of the highest third-party bid, but in no event shall Borrower be required to place a credit bid or announce an upset price in excess of an amount which would repay in full the Collaterally Assigned Loan.

(c)To the extent (x) Borrower elects or proposes a course of action other than accelerating the Collaterally Assigned Loan and prosecuting a foreclosure proceeding or accepting a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or (y) within thirty (30) Business Days after the occurrence of a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default, Borrower has not commenced or caused the commencement of a foreclosure proceeding, Borrower shall deliver to the Lender a proposed course of action (an “Action Plan”) with respect to such Collaterally Assigned Loan Default and shall inform the Lender, from time to time, of any changes thereto. Any Action Plan with respect to a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default shall be subject to the Lender’s approval, in its sole discretion. In no event may (i) the Lender’s approval of an Action Plan that contemplates any actions, events, circumstances or other matters that go beyond the Maturity Date constitute an extension of the Maturity Date, unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing by the Lender that expressly waives the requirements herein related to an extension of the Maturity Date, or (ii) any Collaterally Assigned Loan Default excuse the Borrower from the full and timely payment and performance of all of its obligations hereunder, including timely payment of the Indebtedness in full on or before the Maturity Date.

(d)Upon Lender’s approval of an Action Plan (such Action Plan, an “Approved Action Plan”), Borrower shall keep the Lender fully informed of all material developments with respect to an Approved Action Plan, and, upon the Lender’s request, will provide the Lender with updates with respect to all actions and developments with respect to any Approved Action Plan. Further, Borrower shall promptly undertake on a diligent basis the remedial measures set forth in the Approved Action Plan.

(e)If within ninety (90) days immediately following the occurrence of a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default (x) Lender has not approved an Action Plan and/or (y) a foreclosure proceeding has not been commenced or (z) Borrower has not accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure approved by Lender and otherwise in accordance with this Loan Agreement, Borrower shall send a written notice to Lender asking for the approval of Lender to commence a foreclosure proceeding. The notice shall set forth the specific date by which Lender’s approval or disapproval of such action must be given. In the event Borrower does not receive the written approval or disapproval of Lender to commence a foreclosure proceeding within ten (10) Business Days after Borrower has effected such notice, then Borrower shall send a second reminder notice via next day Federal Express, UPS or a similar internationally recognized overnight delivery service. The second reminder notice shall, at the top of such notice, set forth a legend in all caps and bolded text as follows: “THIS IS A REMINDER NOTICE RELATING TO THE APPROVAL TO COMMENCE A FORECLOSURE PROCEEDING CONCERNING THE LOAN TO [_________], REQUESTED BY BORROWER IN THAT CERTAIN NOTICE DATED AS OF [____]. IF BORROWER DOES NOT RECEIVE A WRITTEN APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL FROM THE ADDRESSEE OF SUCH ACTION WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE DATE HEREOF, WHICH DATE IS [_____], SUCH ADDRESSEE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE APPROVED SUCH ACTION OR DECISION.” If Borrower does not receive from Lender written approval or disapproval to commence a foreclosure proceeding within ten (10) Business Days after the second reminder notice, Lender shall be deemed to have approved the commencement of a foreclosure proceeding and Borrower shall immediately commence and diligently prosecute a foreclosure proceeding. Lender’s deemed approval of pursuant to this Section 10.06(e) shall not be construed, in each case, as (i) an election of remedies by Lender; (ii) Lender’s waiver of any right or remedy under this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly provided by the terms of this Section 10.06(e); or (iii) a limitation on Lender’s authority to approve any subsequent decisions or similar requests for which Lender’s consent may be required under the Loan Documents.

(f)In the event that the Lender requires the commencement of a foreclosure proceeding or other exercise of remedies, to the extent not already done so, Borrower shall declare the outstanding principal amount of the Collaterally Assigned Loan, all interest thereon, and all other amounts payable under the Collaterally Assigned Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable and shall promptly commence and thereafter diligently pursue such foreclosure proceeding. If, after commencing such foreclosure proceeding, Borrower is directed to cease such action or take another course of action by the Lender, Borrower shall follow such direction.

(g)Borrower hereby agrees, at the written request of Lender following a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default continuing for sixty (60) days, to (i) diligently pursue its rights and remedies, in law or in equity or otherwise, under the Collaterally Assigned Guaranties (a “Guaranty Claim”), (ii) consult with Lender regarding the calculation of the amount of the “Guaranteed Obligations” demanded pursuant to such Guaranty Claim and (iii) promptly pay any sum that is awarded to Borrower in any action brought by Borrower with respect to a Guaranty Claim, and any amount paid in

settlement of such claim, to Lender as additional collateral for the Loan, which may be used by Lender to repay the Indebtedness hereunder.

(h)At any time subsequent to the occurrence of a Collaterally Assigned Loan Default, Lender shall have the right, by delivering notice to Borrower, to cause Borrower to (i) convene a meeting of Borrower and Lender no sooner than ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice, (ii) set an agenda of items to be discussed and voted on at such meeting (which items shall be set forth in such written notice), and (iii) cause such items to be discussed and voted on at such meeting.
