Interest on the principal sum of this Note shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the related interest accrual period over a three hundred sixty (360) day year. The first interest accrual period hereunder shall commence on and include the date that principal is advanced hereunder and shall end on and include the next tenth (10th) day of a calendar month; unless principal is advanced on the tenth (10th) day of a month, in which case the first interest accrual period shall consist of only such tenth (10th) day. Each interest accrual period thereafter shall commence on the eleventh (11th) day of each calendar month during the term of this Note and shall end on and include the tenth (10th) day of the next occurring calendar month; provided, however, that if Payee shall have elected to change the Payment Date as aforesaid, Payee shall have the option, but not the obligation, to adjust the interest accrual period correspondingly. All amounts due under this Note shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim or any other deduction whatsoever. 1. The term "Interest Rate" as used in this Note shall mean a rate of Six ------------- and 06/100 percent (6.06%) per annum. 2. This Note is evidence of that certain loan made by Payee to Maker contemporaneously herewith (the "Loan"). This Note is secured by (a) an Amended ---- and Restated Deed of Trust, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Security Agreement of even date herewith given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering the estate of Maker in certain premises as more particularly described therein (the "Security Instrument"), (b) an Assignment of Leases and Rents of ------------------- even date herewith executed by Maker in favor of Payee (the "Assignment of ------------- Leases"), (c) a Cash Management Agreement of even date herewith by and between - ------ Maker and Payee (the "Cash Management Agreement") and (d) the other Loan ------------------------- Documents (as hereinafter defined). The term "Loan Documents" as used in this -------------- Note relates collectively to this Note, the Security Instrument, the Assignment of Leases, the Cash Management Agreement and any and all other documents securing, evidencing, or guaranteeing all or any portion of the Loan or otherwise executed and/or delivered in connection with this Note and the Loan. 3. If any sum payable under this Note is not paid on the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law in order to defray a portion of the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. If the day when any payment required under this Note is due is not a Business Day (as hereinafter defined), then payment shall be due on the first Business Day thereafter. The term "Business -------- Day" shall mean a day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday, or (ii) any day on - --- which banking and savings and loan institutions in New York are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed. 4.

In the event that it should become necessary to employ counsel to collect or enforce the Debt or to protect or foreclose the security therefor, Maker also shall pay on demand all costs of collection incurred by Payee, including attorneys' fees and costs reasonably incurred for the services of counsel whether or not suit be brought. 5. Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (including upon the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date), Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum and any other amounts due at a rate (the "Default ------- Rate") equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, - ---- or (b) five percent (5%) above the Interest Rate. The Default Rate shall be computed from the occurrence of the Event of Default until the date Maker cures the Event of Default and such cure is accepted by Payee. This charge shall be added to the Debt and shall be secured by the Security Instrument. This paragraph, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default. 6. This Note may not be prepaid prior to the Maturity Date; provided, however, Maker shall have the right and option to release the Trust Property (as defined in the Security Instrument) from the lien of the Security Instrument in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in Paragraph 47 of the Security Instrument (the "Defeasance Option"). Notwithstanding the foregoing ----------------- sentence, Maker shall have the privilege to prepay the entire principal balance of this Note and any other amounts outstanding on any scheduled payment date on or after the date that is three (3) months immediately preceding the Maturity Date (hereinafter, the "Optional Prepayment Date") upon thirty (30) days' prior ------------------------ written notice to Payee, without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium (as defined in the Security Instrument) or any other premium or penalty so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. If prior to the Optional Prepayment Date and following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Maker shall tender payment of an amount sufficient to satisfy the Debt at any time prior to a sale of the Trust Property, either through foreclosure or the exercise of the other remedies available to Payee under the Security Instrument, such tender by Maker shall be deemed to be voluntary and Maker shall pay, in addition to the Debt, the Yield Maintenance Premium, if any, that would be required under the Defeasance Option. 7. (a) From and after the date hereof, Maker shall cause all Rents (as defined in the Security Instrument) to be deposited in the Clearing Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) directly by Tenants at the Trust Property. Provided that a Sweep Period (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) does not exist, Maker shall have the right to cause all available funds in the Clearing Account to be transferred to an account of the Maker of the Maker's election. Commencing on the first day of each Collection Period (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) during any Sweep Period (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement), all Rents deposited in the Clearing Account shall be transferred in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Cash Management Agreement to the Cash Collateral Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) and shall be allocated in the following order of priority: (i) First, to fund the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund Account (as established pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement) until the amount on deposit therein is equal to the amount required to be deposited in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund on the related Payment Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Security Instrument; (ii) Next, to fund the Monthly Debt Service Subaccount (as established pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement) until the amount on deposit therein is equal to the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount; (iii) Next, to fund the Monthly Debt Service Subaccount with any other amounts due to the Payee under the Loan Documents not otherwise addressed by this paragraph; (iv) Next, to fund the Replacement Escrow Fund Subaccount (as established pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement) until the amount on deposit therein is equal to the amount required to be deposited in the Replacement Escrow Fund (as defined in the Security Instrument) on the related Payment Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Security Instrument; (v) Next, to fund the Rollover Escrow Fund Subaccount (as established pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement) until the amount on deposit therein is equal to the amount required to be deposited in the Rollover Escrow Fund (as defined in the Security Instrument) on the related Payment Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Security Instrument; and (vi) Lastly, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Cash Management Agreement, to fund the Borrower Remainder Subaccount (as established pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement) any Rents remaining after funding the foregoing allocations. (b) Nothing in this paragraph 7 shall limit, reduce or otherwise affect Maker's obligations to make payments of the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount, payments to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, the Replacement Escrow Fund and Rollover Escrow Fund due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, whether or not Rents are available to make such payments. 8. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payee's exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment or the exercise of any Defeasance Option by Maker results in Maker having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payee's express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration. 9. This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought. Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words 'Payee" and "Maker" ----- ----- shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators. If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several. 10. Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof and of acceleration. No release of any security for the Debt or any person liable for payment of the Debt, no extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof, and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker, and any other person or party who may become liable under the Loan Documents for the payment of all or any part of the Debt. 11. (a) Subject to the qualifications below, Payee shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Maker to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Maker, except that Payee may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Payee to enforce and realize upon its interest under this Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, or in the Trust Property, the Rents, or any other collateral given to Payee pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, -------- ------- that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Maker only to the extent of Maker's interest in the Trust Property, in the Rents and in any other collateral given to Payee, and Payee, by accepting this Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, agrees that it shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Maker in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with this Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this paragraph shall not, however, (1) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (2) impair the right of Payee to name Maker as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Security Instrument; (3) affect the validity or enforceability of or any guaranty made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of the Payee thereunder; (4) impair the right of Payee to obtain the appointment of a receiver; or (5) impair the enforcement of the Assignment of Leases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or in any of the other Loan Documents, Maker shall be fully and personally liable and subject to legal action to the extent of any loss, damage (including damage resulting from the diminution in value of the Trust Property as the result of subsection (iv) below), cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by Payee (including attorneys' fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with the following: (i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation or failure to disclose a material fact by Maker, any of Maker's officers, agents, attorneys, principals, general partners, managing members or employees, or any guarantor or indemnitor in connection with the Loan, including without limitation, the origination of the Loan and the performance of Maker's obligations under the Loan Documents; (ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Maker; (iii) physical waste of the Trust Property; (iv) the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or indemnification provision in the Loan Documents concerning environmental law, hazardous substances or asbestos; (v) the removal or disposal of any portion of the Trust Property during the continuance of an Event of Default; (vi) the misapplication or conversion by Maker of (A) any insurance proceeds paid by reason of any loss, damage or destruction to the Trust Property, (B) any awards or other amounts received in connection with the condemnation of all or a portion of the Trust Property, (C) any Rents following an Event of Default, or during a Sweep Period, or (D) any Rents paid more than one month in advance; (vii) the failure to pay charges for labor or materials or taxes or other charges that can create liens on any portion of the Trust Property; (viii) all tenant security deposits or other refundable deposits paid to or held by Maker or any other person or entity in connection with the Leases (as defined in the Security Instrument) which are not applied in accordance with the terms of the applicable Leases; (ix) the failure to obtain and maintain the fully paid for Policies (as defined in the Security Instrument) in accordance with Paragraph 2 of the Security Instrument; ----------- (x) the failure of Maker or, if Manager is an affiliate of Maker, Manager to strictly comply with the terms of the Cash Management Agreement; (xi) the failure of Maker to strictly comply with the terms and provisions of Section 10 (mm) of the Security Instrument; and (xii) any Tenant in Common commences an action for partition.
