4. No Waiver. The liabilities of Borrower and Guarantors under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and Borrower and each Guarantor hereby consent to and agree to be bound by, any amendment or modification of the provisions of the Loan Documents (but excluding amendments to this Agreement unless made in accordance with Paragraph 11 below) to or with Lenders or Agent by Borrower or Guarantors or any person who succeeds Borrower or any Guarantor as owner of the fee or leasehold interest in a Property. In addition, notwithstanding any terms of any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, the liability of Borrower and Guarantors under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be limited or impaired by: (i) any extensions of time for performance required by any of the Loan Documents; (ii) except as expressly provided in Paragraph 2 above, any sale, assignment or foreclosure of the Note or any Mortgage or any sale or transfer of all or part of the Property; (iii) any exculpatory provision in any of the Loan Documents limiting Lenders or Agents recourse to property encumbered by the Mortgages or to any other security, or limiting Lenders or Agents rights to a deficiency judgment against any Guarantor or Borrower; (iv) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by Borrower or any Guarantor under any of the Loan Documents; (v) the release of Borrower or any Guarantor or any other Person from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Loan Documents by operation of law, Lenders or Agents voluntary act, or otherwise; (vi) the release or substitution, in whole or in part, of any security for the Note; (vii) Lenders or Agents failure to record any Mortgage, file any UCC-1 financing statements (or Lenders or Agents improper recording or filing of any thereof) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for the Note; (viii) any indemnification that might be provided by a tenant of the Property or any other Person; and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to Borrower or Guarantors and with or without consideration; (ix) Lenders or Agents omission or delay to exercise any right described in this Agreement or in connection with any notice (except for notices required of the Lenders or Agent pursuant to this Agreement), demand, warning or claim regarding violations of any Environmental Laws governing the Property; (x) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to any Guarantor or Borrower, or any affiliate of any Guarantor or Borrower, or any action taken with respect to this Agreement by any trustee or receiver or by any court in any such proceeding, whether or not Borrower or such Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing; (xi) any acceptance of partial performance of any of the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents; or (xii) any bid or purchase at any sale of the collateral described in the Loan Documents or otherwise.
5. Separate Obligations.
(a) The certifications, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Borrower and Guarantors set forth in this Agreement (including, without limitation, the indemnity provided for in Paragraph 2 above) are separate and distinct obligations from Borrowers and Guarantors obligations under the Loan Documents; and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, and even though the certifications, representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of Borrower and Guarantors contained herein may be identical or substantially similar to certifications, representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of Borrower and Guarantors set forth in the Loan Documents and secured thereby, the obligations of Borrower and Guarantors under this Agreement are not
5
secured by the lien of the Mortgages or the security interests or other collateral described in the Mortgages or the other Loan Documents, it being the intent of Borrower and Guarantors to create separate obligations of Borrower and Guarantors hereunder which can be enforced against such Persons without regard to the existence of the Mortgages or other Loan Documents or the liens or security interests created therein.
(b) This Agreement shall be deemed to be continuing in nature and shall not be discharged or satisfied by repayment of the Obligations or by the exercise of any remedy by Agent under the Loan Documents, including foreclosure of any Mortgage or other security documents, and shall, except as expressly provided in Paragraph 2 above, continue in effect after any transfer of the Property, including, without limitation, transfers pursuant to foreclosure proceedings (or in lieu of foreclosure) and subsequent transfers, even if, as a part of any such remedy, the Obligations are paid or satisfied in full.
(c) Borrower and each Guarantor hereby specifically agrees that the fact that this Agreement is included in the definition of Loan Documents, and that, accordingly, a misrepresentation or default hereunder shall constitute a default under the Mortgages and other Loan Documents, shall not be construed to imply that any statement or agreement set forth above in this Paragraph 5 is inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever.
(d) Borrower and each Guarantor hereby specifically agrees never to make any allegation contrary to the forgoing provisions of this Paragraph 5 and expressly waives and renounces any and all claims, defenses and other rights which are dependent upon an allegation or proposition contrary to the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 5; and Borrower and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives and renounces the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 5 or in conflict with or in derogation of the indemnity set forth in Paragraph 2 above.
6. Waiver by Borrower and Guarantors. BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR WAIVES ANY RIGHT OR CLAIM OF RIGHT TO CAUSE A MARSHALLING OF BORROWERS OR ANY GUARANTORS ASSETS OR TO CAUSE LENDERS OR AGENT TO PROCEED AGAINST ANY OF THE SECURITY FOR THE LOAN BEFORE PROCEEDING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AGAINST BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR OR TO PROCEED AGAINST BORROWER OR GUARANTORS, OR ANY OF THEM, IN ANY PARTICULAR ORDER. BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR AGREES THAT ANY PAYMENTS REQUIRED TO BE MADE HEREUNDER SHALL BECOME DUE ON DEMAND.

BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR COVENANTS AND AGREES THAT UPON THE COMMENCEMENT OF A VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDING BY OR AGAINST BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR, NEITHER BORROWER NOR ANY GUARANTOR
6
SHALL SEEK A SUPPLEMENTAL STAY OR OTHERWISE PURSUANT TO 11 U.S.C. §105 OR ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THE BANKRUPTCY REFORM ACT OF 1978, AS AMENDED, OR ANY OTHER DEBTOR RELIEF LAW (WHETHER STATUTORY, COMMON LAW, CASE LAW, OR OTHERWISE) OF ANY JURISDICTION WHATSOEVER, NOW OR HEREAFTER IN EFFECT, WHICH MAY BE OR BECOME APPLICABLE, TO STAY, INTERDICT, CONDITION, REDUCE OR INHIBIT THE ABILITY OF LENDER TO ENFORCE ANY RIGHTS OF LENDER OR AGENT AGAINST BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR BY VIRTUE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE.
7. Delay. No delay on Lenders or Agents part in exercising any right, power or privilege under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver of any privilege, power or right hereunder.
8. Releases. Any one or more of Borrower or Guarantors or any other party liable upon or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan may be released without affecting the liability of any party not so released.
9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original. Said counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument and shall be binding upon each of the undersigned individually as fully and completely as if all had signed but one instrument so that the joint and several liability of each of the undersigned hereunder shall be unaffected by the failure of any of the undersigned to execute any or all of the said counterparts.
10. Notices. Each notice, demand, election or request provided for or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be given in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement if given to Borrower or Agent or as provided in the Guaranty if given to any Guarantor.
