SECTION 2.2 INTEREST; LOAN PAYMENTS; LATE PAYMENT CHARGE. 2.2.1 INTEREST GENERALLY. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan shall accrue from the Closing Date to but excluding the Maturity Date at the Applicable Interest Rate. 2.2.2 INTEREST CALCULATION. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each except that interest due and payable for a period less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed in such period by a daily rate based on said 360 day year. 2.2.3 PAYMENTS GENERALLY. Mezzanine Borrower shall pay to Mezzanine Lender on the first Payment Date following the Closing Date, and on each Payment Date thereafter up to but excluding the Maturity Date, an amount equal to the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount, which payments shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and the balance to principal. 2.2.4 PAYMENT ON MATURITY DATE.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Mezzanine Loan Documents by Mezzanine Borrower and Indemnitor will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Mezzanine Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Mezzanine Borrower or Indemnitor pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, partnership agreement, management agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Mezzanine Borrower, Indemnitor or Borrower is a party or by which any of Mezzanine Borrower's, Indemnitor's or Borrower's property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over Mezzanine Borrower, Indemnitor, Borrower or any of Mezzanine Borrower's, Indemnitor's or Borrower's properties or assets, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or any such regulatory authority or other governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery and performance by Mezzanine Borrower or Indemnitor of this Agreement or any other Mezzanine Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect. 4.1.4 LITIGATION.

(g) The actions or payments of Lender to cure any such default under any Ground Lease shall not remove or waive, as between Mezzanine Borrower and Mezzanine Lender, the default that occurred under this Agreement by virtue of such default under any Ground Lease. All sums expended by Mezzanine Lender in connection with such default shall be paid by Mezzanine Borrower to Mezzanine Lender, upon demand, with interest on such sum at the rate set forth in the Mezzanine Note from the date such sum is expended to and including the date the reimbursement payment is made to Mezzanine Lender.

(k) Mezzanine Borrower shall not, and shall not without Mezzanine Lender's prior written consent, suffer or permit Borrower to surrender, terminate, forfeit, or suffer or permit the surrender, termination or forfeiture of, or change, modify or amend in a material or adverse manner, any Ground Lease. Consent to one amendment, change, agreement or modification shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require consent to other, future or successive amendments, changes, agreements or modifications. Mezzanine Borrower shall cause any acquisition of any lessor's interest in any Ground Lease by Borrower or any affiliate of Borrower to be accomplished by Borrower in such a manner so as to avoid a merger of the interests of lessor and lessee in such Ground Lease, unless consent to such merger is granted by Mezzanine Lender. (l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Mezzanine Borrower shall not permit Borrower, without Mezzanine Lender's written consent, to elect to treat any Ground Lease as terminated under subsection 365(h)(l) of the Bankruptcy Code. Any such election made without Mezzanine Lender's prior written consent shall be void. (m) In addition to those events otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the occurrence of any of the following events shall, at Mezzanine Lender's option, constitute an Event of Default, as such term is defined in Section 8.1 hereof and, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies available to it under Section 8.2 hereof: (i) A breach or default by Borrower under any condition or obligation contained in any Ground Lease that is not cured within any applicable cure period provided therein; (ii) The occurrence of any event or condition that gives the lessor under any Ground Lease a right to terminate or cancel such Ground Lease; or (iii) Mezzanine Borrower's or Borrower's failure to permit Mezzanine Lender and/or its representatives at all reasonable times upon reasonable prior written notice to make investigation or examination concerning Borrower's performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of any Ground Lease. (n) Mezzanine Borrower shall not permit Borrower, without Mezzanine Lender's written consent, to fail to exercise any option or right to renew or extend the term of any Ground Lease at least six (6) months prior to the date of termination of any such option or right, and shall give immediate written notice to Mezzanine Lender and shall execute, acknowledge, deliver and 37 42 record any document requested by Mezzanine Lender to evidence such extended or renewed lease term; provided, however, Mezzanine Borrower shall not be required to cause Borrower to exercise any particular such option or right to renew or extend to the extent Mezzanine Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of Mezzanine Lender (which consent may be withheld by Mezzanine Lender in its sole and absolute discretion) allowing Mezzanine Borrower to permit Borrower to forego exercising such option or right to renew or extend. (o) Mezzanine Borrower shall not permit Borrower to waive, excuse, condone or in any way release or discharge the lessor under any Ground Lease of or from such lessor's material obligations, covenant and/or conditions under such Ground Lease without the prior written consent of Mezzanine Lender. (p) To the best of Mezzanine Borrower's knowledge, as of the Closing Date, there has been no event which would materially alter information contained in those ground lessor estoppels delivered to Mezzanine Lender with respect to the Ground Leases prior to the date hereof. (q) The execution, delivery and performance of the Mezzanine Loan Documents, the assignment of the Ground Leases to Borrower, the borrowing of the Mezzanine Loan, the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents, the borrowing of the Loan, the pledge of the Collateral and the exercise of Mezzanine Lender's remedies under the Pledge Agreement is not a breach or default under the Master Leases or Ground Leases and does not require the consent of the landlord or tenant under any such Ground Leases or Master Leases or entitle the tenant or landlord to a right of first refusal, right of first offer or other pre-emptive or right. 4.1.32 ILLEGAL ACTIVITY.

(xi) with respect to any term, covenant or provision set forth herein which specifically contains a notice requirement or grace period, if Mezzanine Borrower shall be in default under such term, covenant or condition after the giving of such notice or the expiration of such grace period;

SECTION 8.2 REMEDIES. (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Mezzanine Lender against Mezzanine Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Mezzanine Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Mezzanine Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Mezzanine Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Mezzanine Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Mezzanine Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Mezzanine Loan Documents with respect to the Collateral. Any such actions taken by Mezzanine Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Mezzanine Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Mezzanine Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Mezzanine Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Mezzanine Lender is not subject to any "one action" or "election of 61 66 remedies" law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Mezzanine Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Mezzanine Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Collateral and the Collateral has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Mezzanine Debt or the Mezzanine Debt has been paid in full. (b) Mezzanine Lender may seek satisfaction out of all of the Collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Mezzanine Debt, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Mezzanine Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Mezzanine Lender may foreclose upon the Collateral to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Mezzanine Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan, Mezzanine Lender may foreclose the Collateral to recover so much of the principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan as Mezzanine Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Collateral as Mezzanine Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Collateral shall remain subject to the Pledge Agreement to secure payment of sums secured by the Mezzanine Loan Documents and not previously recovered. (c) Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Mezzanine Note and the other Mezzanine Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, pledge agreements and other security documents (the "SEVERED LOAN DOCUMENTS") in such denominations as Mezzanine Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Mezzanine Borrower shall execute and deliver to Mezzanine Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Mezzanine Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Mezzanine Lender. Mezzanine Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Mezzanine Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect such severance, Mezzanine Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Mezzanine Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Mezzanine Borrower by Mezzanine Lender of Mezzanine Lender's intent to exercise its rights under such power. Mezzanine Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents and the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Mezzanine Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained therein will be given by Mezzanine Borrower only as of the Closing Date. (d) Any amounts recovered from the Collateral for the Mezzanine Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Mezzanine Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Mezzanine Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Mezzanine Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Mezzanine Lender in its sole discretion shall determine. (e) After the occurrence and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, any amounts from time to time in the Mezzanine Account shall, in Mezzanine Lender's sole 62 67 discretion, be paid to Mezzanine Lender and all Net Cash Flow not required to be paid to, or for the account of, Lender shall be paid to Mezzanine Lender and Mezzanine Borrower shall cause Borrower to make the requisite distributions to Mezzanine Borrower to cause such payments to be made to Mezzanine Lender and Mezzanine Borrower hereby authorizes and directs Borrower to make such distributions directly to Mezzanine Lender, subject to the Cash Management Agreement and Mezzanine Cash Management Agreement. SECTION 8.3 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE; WAIVERS. The rights, powers and remedies of Mezzanine Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Mezzanine Lender may have against Mezzanine Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Mezzanine Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Mezzanine Lender's rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Mezzanine Lender may determine in Mezzanine Lender's sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Mezzanine Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Mezzanine Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. No provision of the Mezzanine Loan Documents shall operate to place any obligation or liability for the control, care, management or repair of the Properties or collateral upon Mezzanine Lender, nor shall it operate to make Mezzanine Lender responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Properties by the tenants or any other Person, or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Properties, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Properties resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, licensee, employee or stranger; provided, however, Mezzanine Lender shall be liable and responsible for the fraud, gross negligence, illegal acts and willful misconduct of Mezzanine Lender and its agents, employees or contractors. Mezzanine Lender shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of any successor or permitted assignee of Mezzanine Lender. SECTION 8.4 LIMITATION ON MEZZANINE LENDER'S RESPONSIBILITY. No provision of the Mezzanine Loan Documents shall operate to place any obligation or liability for the control, care, management or repair of the Properties or Collateral upon Mezzanine Lender, nor shall it operate to make Mezzanine Lender responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Properties by the tenants or any other Person, or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Properties, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Properties resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, licensee, employee or stranger; provided, however, Mezzanine Lender shall be liable and responsible for the fraud, gross negligence, illegal acts and willful misconduct of Mezzanine Lender and its agents, employees or contractors. Mezzanine Lender shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of any successor or permitted assignee of Mezzanine Lender. 63 68 IX. MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 9.1 SURVIVAL. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Mezzanine Lender of the Mezzanine Loan and the execution and delivery to Mezzanine Lender of the Mezzanine Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Mezzanine Debt is outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Mezzanine Loan Documents.

Subject to the foregoing, Mezzanine Borrower acknowledges and agrees that upon its receipt of notice of such Transfer each Loan Transferee may exercise all rights of payment (including without limitation rights of set-off) with respect to the Mezzanine Loan as fully as if such Transferee were the initial Mezzanine Lender or the direct holder thereof, as applicable, except that all participants in the Mezzanine Loan may only take such actions through the Mezzanine Lender. SECTION 9.3 MEZZANINE LENDER'S DISCRETION. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement, Mezzanine Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Mezzanine Lender, the decision of Mezzanine Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Mezzanine Lender and shall be final and conclusive.
