This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which must be in form, detail and substance satisfactory to Lenders, evidence the agreements of Borrower and Lenders with respect to the Loan. Borrower shall comply with all of the Loan Documents. 1.2 Purpose. The proceeds of the Loan shall be used by Borrower to pay (i) the cost of the construction of the Improvements on the Land and (ii) other fees, costs and expenses relating to the Property if and to the extent that such costs are specifically provided for in the Loan Allocation column in the Budget. The maximum principal Loan amount shall be $69,800,000.00 (the "Loan Amount"), the proceeds of which shall be used to develop the Project, which amount shall be evidenced by the Note. The Loan Amount shall be reduced, if the actual 2 costs of construction are below the Loan allocations set forth in the Budget (as hereinafter defined), by an amount equal to the difference between the cost of construction set forth in the Budget and the actual cost of construction. The Note shall be in the maximum principal amount of $69,800,000.00. 1.3 Commitment to Lend. Borrower agrees to borrow the Loan from Lenders, and each Lender severally agrees to make advances of its Pro Rata Share of the Loan proceeds to Borrower in amounts at any one time outstanding not to exceed such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Loan and (except for Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent Advances), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and Exhibit "C", Exhibit "C-1" and Exhibit "F" attached to this Agreement. Lender's commitment to lend shall expire and terminate (a) automatically if the Loan is prepaid in full; and (b) automatically upon the occurrence of a Default. The Loan is not revolving. Any amount repaid may not be reborrowed. 1.4 Budget. Loan funds are allocated to payment of the costs of the Project shown in the "Loan Allocation" column of the Budget attached to this Agreement as Exhibit "D". Borrower shall not amend the Budget, or otherwise reallocate Loan funds from one Budget line item to another, in an amount in excess of $500,000.00 per occurrence subject to an aggregate total of $5,000,000.00 without the prior written approval of Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Budget has been prepared by Borrower, and Borrower represents to Administrative Agent and Lenders that the Budget constitutes Borrower's good faith estimate of all costs incident to the Loan and the Project through the stated maturity date of the Loan (collectively, the "Aggregate Cost") after taking into account the requirements of this Agreement, including "hard" and "soft" costs, fees and expenses. Unless approved by Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, no advance shall be made (a) for any cost not set forth in the Budget, (b) from any line item in the Budget that, when added to all prior advances from that line item, would exceed the lesser of (i) the actual cost incurred by Borrower for such line item, or (ii) the sum shown in the "Loan Allocation" column in the Budget for such line item (subject to Borrower's ability to reallocate such items as set forth in Section 1.4 herein), (c) from any contingency line item in excess of the amount of such line item, or (d) [Reserved]. Except for Borrower's ability to reallocate items as set forth in Section 1.4 herein, advances from any line item in the Budget for purposes other than those for which amounts are initially allocated to such line item, or changes in the relative amounts allocated to particular line items in the Budget may only be made with Administrative Agent's approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 1.5 Borrower's Equity and Borrower's Deposit. Prior to the Closing Date and at all times during the term of the Loan, Administrative Agent must be satisfied that the actual Aggregate Cost does not exceed the total amount of the Loan plus the amounts of all equity investments in the Project made by Borrower for which funds are readily available. Administrative Agent reserves the right to require, at Borrower's expense, a construction cost takeoff by a consultant designated by Administrative Agent to assist in making such determination. If at any time Administrative Agent determines that the sum of: (1) any unadvanced portion of the Loan to which Borrower is entitled, plus (ii) the portions of the Aggregate Cost that are to be paid by Borrower from other funds that, to Administrative Agent's satisfaction, are available, set aside and committed, is or will be insufficient to pay the actual 3 unpaid Aggregate Cost, Borrower shall, within seven (7) days after written notice from Administrative Agent, (i) cause Guarantor to sign an acknowledgment, in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent, that the Guaranty shall cover such shortages, or (ii) deposit with Agent equity funds in cash with Administrative Agent the amount of the deficiency ("Borrower's Deposit") in an interest-bearing account of Administrative Agent's selection with interest earned thereon to be part of Borrower's Deposit, or shall submit evidence to Administrative Agent of equity investments previously made, in amounts sufficient, in Administrative Agent's opinion, to equal any such shortage and Administrative Agent may refuse to make any additional advances under the Loan Documents until such Guarantor's acknowledgment or additional equity funds have been received. Any such Borrower's Deposit is hereby pledged to Administrative Agent and Lenders as additional security for the Loan, and Borrower hereby grants and conveys to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders a security interest in all funds so deposited with Administrative Agent, as additional security for the Loan. Administrative Agent may advance all or a portion of the Borrower's Deposit prior to the Loan proceeds. Administrative Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) apply all or any part of Borrower's Deposit against the unpaid Indebtedness in such order as Administrative Agent determines. 1.6 Evidence of Debt. 1.6.1 Amounts of the Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loan made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 1.7 Interest Rate. 1.7.1 Initial Interest Rate. Initially, the Principal Debt from day to day outstanding which is not past due, shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Eurodollar Daily Rate plus two hundred twenty-five (225) basis points per annum. 1.7.2 Reduction of Interest Rate. Upon the achievement of all of the following, the unpaid principal balance of the Loan shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Eurodollar Daily Rate plus two hundred (200) basis points per annum: (i) the Improvements shall be fifty-five percent (55%) complete, as evidenced by AIA certification from the Project architect; and (ii) no monetary Default has occurred and no Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan. 4 1.7.3 General Interest Rate Provisions. (a) The "Eurodollar Daily Rate" shall mean a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the one month rate of interest (rounded upwards, if necessary to the nearest 1/100 of 1%).appearing on Telerate Page 3750 ("Telerate Page 3750" means the British Bankers Association Libor Rates (determined at 11:00 a.m. London, England time) that are published by Bridge Information Systems, Inc.) or any successor page as the one month, two month or three month London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the second preceding Business Day, as adjusted from time to time in Administrative Agent's sole discretion for then applicable reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. If for any reason such rate is not available, the term "Eurodollar Daily Rate" shall mean the fluctuating rate of interest equal to the one month, two month or three month rate of interest (rounded upwards, if necessary to the nearest 1/100 of 1%) appearing on Reuters Screen LIBO Page as the one month, two month, or three month London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the second preceding Business Day, as adjusted from time to time in Administrative Agent's sole discretion for then applicable reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs; provided, however, if more than one rate is specified on Reuters Screen LIBO Page, the applicable rate shall be the arithmetic mean of all such rates. (b) If Administrative Agent determines that no adequate basis exists for determining the Eurodollar Daily Rate or that any applicable law or regulation or compliance therewith by Administrative Agent prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the charging of interest based on the Eurodollar Daily Rate and Administrative Agent so notifies Borrower, then until Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, interest shall accrue and be payable on the unpaid principal balance of the Loan from the date Administrative Agent so notifies Borrower until the Maturity Date of the Loan (whether by acceleration, declaration, extension or otherwise) at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate of Administrative Agent plus or minus such amount as may be necessary to approximate the rate per annum last assessed pursuant to this Section. The term "Prime Rate" means, on any day, the rate of interest per annum then most recently established by Administrative Agent as its "prime rate". Any such rate is a general reference rate of interest, may not be related to any other rate, and may not be the lowest or best rate actually charged by Administrative Agent to any customer or a favored rate and may not correspond with future increases or decreases in interest rates charged by other lenders or market rates in general, and that Administrative Agent may make various business or other loans at rates of interest having no relationship to such rate. Each time the Prime Rate changes, the per annum rate of interest on the Loan shall change immediately and contemporaneously with such change in the Prime Rate. (c) Computations and Determinations. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Principal Debt in accordance with this Agreement and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The books and records of Administrative Agent shall be prima facie evidence of all sums owing to Lenders from time to time under this Loan, but the failure to record any such information shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents. 5 (d) [Reserved]. (e) Past Due Rate. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable on demand, at a rate per annum (the "Past Due Rate") equal to four percent (4%) per annum in excess of the interest rate in effect at the time of payment default. Provided, there is no Default and in accordance with the Budget, Lender shall pay itself interest from the Loan Proceeds when due and payable. 1.8 Prepayment. Borrower may prepay the principal balance of this Loan, in full at any time or in part from time to time without premium or penalty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower at any time enters into an interest rate protection agreement whereby Borrower has purchased an interest protection product from Administrative Agent (an "Interest Rate Protection Agreement") and the Interest Rate Protection Agreement is in effect, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent a prepayment fee calculated in accordance with the prepayment fee described in the Interest Rate Protection Agreement. 1.9 [Reserved]. 1.10 Late Charge. If Borrower shall fail to make any payment due hereunder or under the terms of any Note (other than payments of interest to be funded by Lender to itself in accordance with the Budget as an Advance under the Loan) within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay to the applicable Lender or Lenders on demand a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The "late charge" is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of a Lender incident to handling such defaulting payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy Lenders may have and is in addition to any fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which Administrative Agent or Lenders may employ upon the occurrence of a Default, whether authorized herein or by law. 1.11 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent and any Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a lending office (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), Administrative Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) 6 Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) evidence of payment thereof. (b) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"). (c) [Reserved]. (d) Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by Administrative Agent and such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Tribunal. Payment under this subsection (d) shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or the Administrative Agent makes a demand therefor. (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all the other Obligations. 1.12 Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. (a) The principal of the Loan shall be due and payable in the form of Release Fees as described more particularly in paragraph (b) below. The entire principal balance of the Loan then unpaid and all accrued interest then unpaid shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the 15th day of the calendar month for the previous calendar month after the date of this Agreement, and Administrative Agent shall pay Lenders interest each month as an advance on the Loan, until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied. (b) Administrative Agent will release each condominium Unit from the lien of its mortgage upon (i) satisfaction of all requirements set forth in the Mortgage; (ii) payment, in each case, to Administrative Agent of a release fee ("Release Fee") equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the net sales proceeds of the applicable Unit, or (b) 92% of the gross sales price of the applicable Unit, subject to the minimum release price for each Unit set forth on Exhibit "E" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference; (iii) receipt by Lender of fully executed copies of the sales contract and closing statement for each Unit to be so released; and (iv) receipt by Lender of appropriate releases to be executed. In all cases, such Release Fees shall be remitted to Administrative Agent at the closing of the sale of the Unit. 7 1.13 Advances and Payments. (a) Following receipt of a Draw Request, Administrative Agent shall promptly provide each Lender with a copy of the Draw Request Form in the form of Exhibit 7-l", the related AIA Document G-702 and G-703, with written certification by Borrower's Architect thereon and, if available, the related written certification of the Construction Consultant. Administrative Agent shall notify one designated person at each Lender telephonically (with confirmation by facsimile) or by facsimile (with confirmation by telephone) not later than 1:00 p.m. Administrative Agent's Time one (1) Business Day prior to the advance Funding Date for all advances of its Pro Rata Share of the Amount Administrative Agent has determined shall be advanced in connection therewith ("Advance Amount"). In the case of an advance of the Loan, each Lender shall make the funds for its Pro Rata Share of the Advance Amount available to Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. Administrative Agent's Time on the Funding Date thereof. After Administrative Agent's receipt of the Advance Amount from Lenders, Administrative Agent shall make proceeds of the Loan in an amount equal to the Advance Amount (or, if less, such portion of the Advance Amount that shall have been paid to Administrative Agent by Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof) available to Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by advancing such funds to Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit "F". (b) All payments by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. Administrative Agent's Time on the date specified herein. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender, such funds as it may be entitled to receive hereunder, (1) on or before 3:00 p.m. Administrative Agent's Time on the day Administrative Agent receives such funds, if Administrative Agent has received such funds on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent's Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. Administrative Agent's Time on the Business Day following the day Administrative Agent receives such funds, if Agent receives such funds after 12:00 p.m. Administrative Agent's Time. (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments by Borrower or any Lender shall be made to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent's Office not later than the time for such type of payment specified in this Agreement. All payments received after such time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America. (d) Upon satisfaction of any applicable terms and conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly make any amounts received in accordance with the prior subsection available in like funds received as follows: (1) if payable to Borrower, in accordance with Exhibit "F", except as otherwise specified herein, and (ii) if payable to any Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender at the address specified in the Schedule of Lenders. (e) Unless Borrower or any Lender has notified Administrative Agent prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to Administrative Agent, that Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall 8 not be required to do so) in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the person or entity entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then: (i) if Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and (ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender or, if applicable, Electing Lender or Lenders shall forthwith on demand pay to Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date amount was made available by Administrative Agent to Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by Administrative Agent (the "Compensation Period") at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such amount under the Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Pro Rata Share, included in the applicable Loan advance. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights, which Administrative Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender with respect to any amount owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (f) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan advance to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section, and the funds are not advanced to Borrower or otherwise used to satisfy any Obligations of Lender hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, with interest. (g) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan advance in any particular place or manner. (h) All Loan disbursements shall be made only in accordance with the Loan allocations in the Budget, the Cost Breakdown and the requirements for Loan disbursements contained in the Loan Documents. Furthermore, disbursements under the Note shall not commence until Borrower has met the pre-sales requirement described herein in Section 1.13(i) and the Loan has been syndicated in the manner described in Article 6 below. In addition, all construction-related disbursements shall be subject to the approval, which may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of Administrative Agent's construction consultant. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse any undrawn interest or any cost savings realized on any line item in the Budget under a different line item in the Budget; subject, however, to Borrower's ability to reallocate such amounts as permitted under Section 1.4. 9 (i) The form of contract for the purchase and sale of a Unit (a "Sales Contract") has been received by and is acceptable to Administrative Agent. If a Sales Contract materially differs from the form approved by Administrative Agent, then such Sales Contract shall be subject to Administrative Agent's approval in its sole discretion. All Sales Contracts shall require a non-refundable deposit (a "Deposit") to be held by Administrative Agent in the amount of 10% of the gross sales price for the applicable Unit. No Sales Contract shall contain any contingencies (other than as approved by Administrative Agent) which would make the contract non-binding on the purchaser. Funding shall be limited to no more than fifty percent (50%) of the Appraised Value of the Land ("Initial Funding"; and such funding shall be initially advanced only by Administrative Agent) until such time as Borrower has submitted to Administrative Agent copies of executed, valid and binding Sales Contracts in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent in the aggregate gross amount of $76,000,000.00 at which time Borrower may borrow up to one hundred percent (100%) of the Loan proceeds in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents (and the Initial Funding shall then be shared pro rata among the Lenders). Multiple Unit purchasers shall be allowed only with the specific permission of the Administrative Agent. 1.14 Administrative Agent Advances. (a) Administrative Agent is authorized, from time to time, in Administrative Agent's sole discretion to make, authorize or determine advances of the Loan, or otherwise expend funds, on behalf of Lenders ("Administrative Agent Advances"), (1) to pay any costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 6.10 herein, (ii) when the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Exhibit "C," Exhibit "C-1" and Exhibit "F" have been satisfied to the extent required by Administrative Agent, and (iii) when Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Loan collateral or any portion thereof (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition) (A) subject to Section 5.5, after the occurrence of a Default, and (B) subject to Section 5.10, after acquisition of all or a portion of the Loan collateral by foreclosure or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent Advances after the Initial Funding which are equal to or greater than $5,000,000.00 shall require the approval of the Required Lenders, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. (b) Administrative Agent Advances shall constitute obligatory advances of Lenders under this Agreement, shall be repayable on demand and secured by the Loan collateral, and shall bear interest at the rate applicable to such amount under the Loan. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender in writing of each Administrative Agent Advance. Upon receipt of notice from Administrative Agent of its making of an Administrative Agent Advance, other than the Initial Funding, each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Administrative Agent Advance available to Administrative Agent, in same day funds, to such account of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may designate, (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent's Time) on the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such Administrative Agent Advance if Administrative Agent provides such notice on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent's Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately following the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such advance if Administrative Agent provides notice after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent's Time). 10 1.15 Defaulting Lender. (a) Notice and Cure of Lender Default; Election Period; Electing Lenders. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify (such notice being referred to as the "Default Notice") Borrower (for Loan advances) and each non-Defaulting Lender if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender. Each non-Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but in no event or under any circumstance the obligation, to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount, provided that, within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Default Notice (the "Election Period"), such non- Defaulting Lender or Lenders (each such Lender, an "Electing Lender") irrevocably commit(s) by notice in writing (an "Election Notice") to Administrative Agent, the other Lenders and Borrower to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount and to assume the Defaulting Lender's obligations with respect to the advancing of the entire undisbursed portion of the Defaulting Lender's principal obligations under this Agreement (such entire undisbursed portion of the Defaulting Lender's principal obligations under this Agreement, including its portion of the Payment Amount that is the subject of the default, is hereinafter referred to as the "Defaulting Lender Obligation"). If Administrative Agent receives more than one Election Notice within the Election Period, then the commitment to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount and the Defaulting Lender Obligation shall be apportioned pro rata among the Electing Lenders in the proportion that the amount of each such Electing Lender's Commitment bears to the total Commitments of all Electing Lenders. If the Defaulting Lender fails to pay the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount within the Election Period, the Electing Lender or Lenders, as applicable, shall be automatically obligated to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount and Defaulting Lender Obligation (and Defaulting Lender shall no longer be entitled to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount and Defaulting Lender Obligation) within three (3) Business Days after such notice to Administrative Agent for reimbursement to Administrative Agent or payment to Borrower as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Administrative Agent has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement for its portion of the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount pursuant to Section 5.11. Further, if no Electing Lender commits in writing to fund timely the Defaulting Lender Obligation hereunder, Borrower may fund any such amounts and request a refund of such amounts upon the replacement of a Defaulting Lender as set forth in Section 1.17 hereinbelow. (b) Removal of Rights; Indemnity. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by or on behalf of Borrower to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender's benefit; nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder or under any Note until all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts are paid in full. Administrative Agent shall hold all such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender; Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall be paid by Administrative Agent to reimburse Administrative Agent and any Electing Lender pro rata for all Funds Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts. Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a "Lender" and such Defaulting Lender's Commitment shall be deemed to be zero. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to participate in any discussions among and/or decisions by Lenders hereunder and/or under the other Loan Documents. Further, any Defaulting Lender shall be bound by any amendment to, or waiver of, any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under, any Loan Document which is made subsequent to the Defaulting Lender's 11 becoming a Defaulting Lender. This Section shall remain effective with respect to a Defaulting Lender until such time as the Defaulting Lender shall no longer be in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement by curing such default by payment of all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts (i) within the Election Period, or (ii) after the Election Period with the consent of the non-Defaulting Lenders. Such Defaulting Lender nonetheless shall be bound by any amendment to or waiver of any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under any Loan Document which is made subsequent to that Lender's becoming a Defaulting Lender and prior to such cure or waiver. The operation of this subsection or the subsection above alone shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any non-Defaulting Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by Borrower of their duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Furthermore, nothing contained in this Section shall release or in any way limit a Defaulting Lender's obligations as a Lender hereunder and/or under any other of the Loan Documents. Further, a Defaulting Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless Administrative Agent and each of the non-Defaulting Lenders from any claim, loss, or costs incurred by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders as a result of a Defaulting Lender's failure to comply with the requirements of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any and all additional losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) incurred by Administrative Agent and any non-Defaulting Lender as a result of and/or in connection with (i) a non-Defaulting Lender's acting as an Electing Lender, (ii) any enforcement action brought by Administrative Agent against a Defaulting Lender, and (iii) any action brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders. The indemnification provided above shall survive any termination of this Agreement. (c) Commitment Adjustments. In connection with the adjustment of the amounts of the Loan Commitments of the Defaulting Lender and Electing Lender(s) upon the expiration of the Election Period as aforesaid, Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall execute such modifications to the Loan Documents as shall, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, be necessary or desirable in connection with the adjustment of the amounts of Commitments in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section. For the purpose of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents such modifications shall also reflect the removal of voting rights of the Defaulting Lender and increase in voting rights of Electing Lenders to the extent an Electing Lender has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount and assumed the Defaulting Lender Obligation. In connection with such adjustments, Defaulting Lenders shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption covering that Lender's Commitment and otherwise comply with Section 6.5. If a Defaulting Lender refuses to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption or otherwise comply with Section 6.5, such Defaulting Lender hereby appoints Administrative Agent to do so on such Lender's behalf. Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule of Lenders, which shall thereafter be incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect such adjustments. However, all such Defaulting Lender Amounts and Defaulting Lender Obligation funded by Administrative Agent or Electing Lenders shall continue to be Defaulting Lender Amounts of the Defaulting Lender pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement. (d) No Election. In the event that no Lender elects to commit to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount and Defaulting Lender Obligations within the Election Period, Administrative Agent shall, upon the expiration of the Election Period, so notify Borrower and each Lender. 12 1.16 Several Obligations; No Liability, No Release. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Administrative Agent (if any) to make any advances of the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Pro Rata Shares. Except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement, no Lenders shall have any liability for the acts of any other Lenders. No Lenders shall be responsible to Borrower or any other person for any failure by any other Lenders to fulfill its obligations to make advances of the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts, nor to take any other action on its behalf hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein. The failure of any Lender to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of a Payment Amount shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts as and when required herein, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so fund its Pro Rata Share of the Payment Amount. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lenders shall comply with their obligation to pay Administrative Agent their Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts regardless of (i) the occurrence of any Default hereunder or under any Loan Document; (ii) [reserved]; (iii) any failure of consideration, absence of consideration, misrepresentation, fraud, or any other event, failure, deficiency, breach or irregularity of any nature whatsoever in the Loan Documents; (iv) any bankruptcy, insolvency or other like event with regard to any Borrower or Guarantor. The obligation of Lenders to pay to such Payment Amounts are in all regards independent of any claims between Administrative Agent and any Lender. 1.17 Removal and/or Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or under any other circumstances set forth in the Loan Documents providing that Borrower shall have the right to remove and/or replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement, Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, remove such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitment to one or more other lenders or Eligible Assignees acceptable to Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Any removed or replaced Lender shall be entitled to: (x) subject to the provisions of Section 1.14 through 1.15 providing for payment of all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts to Administrative Agent and/or Electing Lenders, as applicable, prior to payment of amounts due to a Defaulting Lender, payment in full of all principal, interest and fees owing to such Lender through the date of termination or assignment, (y) appropriate assurances and indemnities (which may include letters of credit) as such Lender may reasonably require with respect to its participation interest in any Letters of Credit then outstanding and (z) a release of such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption covering that Lender's Commitment and otherwise comply with Section 6.5. If a Lender being replaced refuses to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption or otherwise comply with Section 6.5, such Lender hereby appoints Administrative Agent to do so on such Lender's behalf. Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule of Lenders, which shall thereafter be incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect adjustments to Lenders and their Commitments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Borrower shall retain all rights and remedies available at law or in equity against any Defaulting Lender, whether or not such Defaulting Lender is replaced with another Lender hereunder. 13 ARTICLE 2- ADDITIONAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS 2.1 Construction of the Improvements.

No construction shall be undertaken on the Land except as shown in the Plans. Borrower assumes full responsibility for the compliance of the Plans and the Property with all laws, governmental requirements and sound building and engineering practices. Except as otherwise provided herein, no plans or specifications, or any changes thereto, shall be included as part of the Plans until approved by Administrative Agent, Construction Consultant, all applicable governmental authorities, and all other parties required under the Loan Documents. Without Administrative Agent's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Borrower shall not change or modify the Plans, agree to any change order, or allow any extras to any contractor or any subcontractor, except that Borrower may make Permitted Changes if: (a) Borrower notifies Administrative Agent in writing of the change or extra with appropriate supporting documentation and information; (b) Borrower obtains the approval of the applicable contractor, Borrower's architect and all sureties, if required; (c) the structural integrity, quality and standard of workmanship of the Improvements is not impaired by such change or extra; (d) no substantial change in architectural appearance is effected by such change or extra; (e) no default in any obligation to any person or violation of any law or governmental requirement would result from such change or extra; (f) if applicable, Borrower complies with Section 1.5 of this Agreement to cover any excess cost resulting from the change or extra; (g) completion of the Improvements by the Completion Date will not be affected; and (h) [Reserved].

With respect to contracts for the performance of any work or the supplying of any labor, materials or services, a "material" contract is one which exceeds $500,000.00 in total price. 2.4 Assignment of Contracts and Plans. As additional security for the Obligations, Borrower hereby transfers and assigns to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders all of Borrower's right, title and interest, but not its liability, in, under, and to all construction, architectural and design contracts, and the Plans, and agrees that all of the same are covered by the security agreement provisions of the Mortgage. Borrower agrees to deliver to Administrative Agent from time to time upon Administrative Agent's request such consents to the foregoing assignment from parties contracting with Borrower as Administrative Agent reasonably may require. Neither this assignment nor any action by Administrative Agent or Lenders shall constitute an assumption by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any obligation under any contract or with respect to the Plans, Borrower hereby agrees to perform all of its obligations under any contract, and Borrower shall continue to be liable for all obligations of Borrower with respect thereto. Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time following written notice to Borrower (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower such action as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cure any default in any material respect of Borrower under any contract or with respect to the Plans or to protect the rights of Borrower, Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect thereto. Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower's attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable, to enforce in Borrower's name or in Administrative Agent's and Lender's name, following written notice to Borrower of the occurrence, and during the continuance, of a Default, all rights of Borrower under any contract or with respect to the Plans. Administrative Agent shall incur no liability if any action so taken by it or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid, absent gross negligence or reckless or willful conduct on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender. Borrower indemnifies and holds Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense (including, but not limited to, consultants' fees and expenses and attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred in connection with Borrower's failure to perform such contracts or any action taken by Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect to such contracts, absent gross negligence or reckless or willful conduct on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender. Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders may use the Plans for any purpose relating to the Improvements. Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that the copy of any contract furnished or to be furnished to Administrative Agent is and shall be a true and complete copy thereof, that the copies of the 15 Plans delivered to Administrative Agent are and shall be true and complete copies of the Plans, that there have been no material modifications thereof which are not fully set forth in the copies delivered, and that Borrower's interest therein is not subject to any claim, setoff, or encumbrance. 2.5 Storage of Materials. Borrower shall cause all materials supplied for the construction of the Improvements, but not yet affixed to or incorporated into the Improvements or the Land, to be stored on the Land with adequate safeguards to prevent loss, theft, damage or commingling with materials for other projects. Without Administrative Agent's approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Borrower shall not purchase or order materials for delivery more than ninety (90) days prior to the scheduled incorporation of such materials into the Improvements. 2.6 Construction Consultant. Borrower shall engage a licensed supervising architect, reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, who shall make and certify to Administrative Agent the results of regular periodic inspections of the construction through completion of the Improvements, including, but not limited to compliance with the Plans and the percentage of Loan funds requested to be drawn in relation to the percentage of work completed as conditions to Loan advances. In addition, Administrative Agent may retain the services of a Construction Consultant, whose duties may include, among others, reviewing the Plans and any proposed changes to the Plans, performing construction cost analyses, observing work in place and reviewing Draw Requests. The duties of Construction Consultant run solely to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders, and Construction Consultant shall have no obligations or responsibilities whatsoever to Borrower, Borrower's architect, engineer, contractor or any of their agents or employees. Unless prohibited by applicable law, all fees, costs, and expenses of Construction Consultant shall be paid by Borrower. Borrower shall cooperate with Construction Consultant and will furnish to Construction Consultant such information and other material as Construction Consultant reasonably considers necessary or useful in performing its duties. 2.7 Inspection. Administrative Agent and its agents, including Construction Consultant, may enter upon the Property to inspect the Property, the Project and any materials at any reasonable time, unless Administrative Agent deems such inspection is of an emergency nature, in which event Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with immediate access to the Property. Borrower will furnish to Administrative Agent and its agents, including Construction Consultant, for inspection and copying, all Plans, shop drawings, specifications, books and records, and other documents and information that Administrative Agent reasonably may request from time to time. 2.8 Notice to Lenders.

Each such appraiser shall be appointed by Administrative Agent and shall be reasonably satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent (including satisfaction of applicable regulatory requirements). The cost of any such appraisal shall be borne by Borrower provided that Borrower shall be obligated to pay for appraisals not more than once every three (3) years unless the Loan is being renewed, extended, modified, or accelerated or Lender is otherwise required by law, regulation, order or other directive from any regulatory agency having jurisdiction over Lender to obtain such appraisal and such cost shall be due and payable by Borrower on demand and shall be secured by the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of such Appraisal to each Lender upon receipt. 2.14 Payment of Withholding Taxes. Borrower shall not use, or knowingly permit any contractor or subcontractor to use, any portion of the proceeds of any Loan advance to pay the wages of employees unless a portion of the proceeds or other funds are also used to make timely payment to or deposit with (a) the United States of all amounts of tax required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such wages under the Internal Revenue Code, and (b) any state and/or local Tribunal or agency having jurisdiction of all amounts of tax required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such wages under any applicable state and/or local laws. 2.15 ERISA and Prohibited Transaction Taxes.

No delay or omission on the part of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Indebtedness, or for foreclosure of the Mortgage following any Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder in any one or more instances, or the acceptances by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any partial payment on account of the Indebtedness, shall constitute a waiver of any such Default, and each such option shall remain continuously in full force and effect. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedies provided for in any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder, or under any Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or now or 22 hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every right, power and remedy given to Administrative Agent and Lenders by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall be concurrent, and may be pursued separately, successively or together against Borrower, or the Property or any part thereof, or any personal property granted as security under the Loan Documents, and every right, power and remedy given by this Agreement, any Note or any of the other Loan Documents may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by the Required Lenders. Regardless of how a Lender may treat payments received from the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents for the purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of computing the Obligations, payments shall be applied provided herein. No application of payments, unless sufficient to cure any payment Default, shall prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity. ARTICLE 5- ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 5.1 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 5.9) appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. (b) Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights, or taking or refraining from taking any actions which Administrative Agent is expressly entitled to exercise or take under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, (i) the determination if and to what extent matters or items subject to Administrative Agent's satisfaction are acceptable or otherwise within its discretion, (ii) the making of Administrative Agent Advances, and (iii) the exercise of remedies pursuant to, but subject to, Article 4 or pursuant to any other Loan Document, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by Lenders. 23 5.2 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultant experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.

No Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Borrower, Guarantor, or any of their Affiliates 5.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any party to the Loan Documents), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or all Lenders if required hereunder as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, if required hereunder, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and participants. Where this Agreement expressly permits or prohibits an action unless the Required Lenders or all Lenders, if required hereunder, otherwise determine, the Administrative Agent shall and in all other instances, Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent or a vote of Lenders. In the absence of written instructions from the Required Lenders or all Lenders, if required hereunder, Administrative Agent may take or not take any action, at its discretion, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Lenders or all Lenders. 24 5.5 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default except in the case of a payment default, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement and describing such Default. Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 4; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders. 5.6 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent. (a) Each Lender acknowledges that none of Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower and Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent- Related Person to any Lenders as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender, represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and Guarantor, and all applicable bank or other regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and Guarantor. (b) Administrative Agent upon its receipt shall provide each Lender such notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent herein. To the extent not already available to a Lender, Administrative Agent shall also provide the Lender and/or make available for the Lender's inspection during reasonable business hours and at the Lender's expense, upon the Lender's written request therefor: (i) copies of the Loan Documents; (ii) such information as is then in Administrative Agent's possession in respect of the current status of principal and interest payments and accruals in respect of the Loan; (iii) copies of all current financial statements in respect of Borrower, or Guarantor or other person liable for payment or performance by Borrower of any obligations under the Loan Documents, then in Administrative Agent's possession with respect to the Loan; and (iv) other current factual information then in Administrative Agent's possession with respect to the Loan and bearing on the continuing creditworthiness of Borrower, Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates; provided that nothing contained in this section shall impose any liability upon Administrative Agent for its failure to provide a Lender any of such Loan Documents, information, or financial statements, unless such failure constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence on 25 Administrative Agent's part; and provided, further, that Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to provide any Lender with any information in violation of law or any contractual restrictions on the disclosure thereof (provided such contractual restrictions shall not apply to distributing to a Lender factual and financial information expressly required to be provided herein). Except as set forth above, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lenders with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any of Agent-Related Persons. 5.7 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent- Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lenders shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney fees) incurred by Administrative Agent as described in Section 6.10. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a dispute solely between the Administrative Agent and one or more Lenders shall not be subject to the indemnification obligations of Lenders set forth herein. 5.8 Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any party to the Loan Documents and their respective Affiliates as though Administrative Agent were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that Borrower and Bank of America, N.A., as Lender, ("Swap Bank") or an Affiliate of Swap Bank have entered or may enter into Swap Contract. A portion of the Loan may be funded to honor Borrower's payment obligations to Swap Bank or such Affiliate under the terms of such agreement, and Lenders shall have no right to share in any portion of such payments. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America, N.A. or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any party to the Loan Documents, or their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such parties or such parties' Affiliates) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its ProRata Share of the Loan, Bank of America, N.A. shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not Administrative Agent, Swap Bank, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" include Bank of America, N.A. in its individual capacity. 26 5.9 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders as a result of Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct in performing its duties under this Agreement shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days' notice to Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent for Lenders which successor administrative agent shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of Default (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Borrower, a successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor administrative agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article and other applicable Sections of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. 5.10 Releases; Acquisition and Transfers of Collateral. (a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders to transfer or sell, any Loan collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all Indebtedness; (ii) constituting a release, transfer or sale of a lien or property if Borrower will certify to Administrative Agent that the release, transfer or sale is permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); or (iii) if approved by the Required Lenders. (b) If all or any portion of the Loan collateral is acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Administrative Agent shall take title to the collateral in its name or by an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, but for the benefit of all Lenders in their Pro Rata Shares on the date of the foreclosure sale or recordation of the deed in lieu of foreclosure (the "Acquisition Date"). Administrative Agent and all Lenders hereby expressly waive and relinquish any right of partition with respect to any collateral so acquired. After any collateral is acquired, Administrative Agent shall appoint and retain one or more Persons (individually and collectively, "Property Manager") experienced in the management, leasing, sale and/or dispositions of similar properties. (c) Upon request by Administrative Agent or Borrower at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent's authority to sell, transfer or release any such liens of 27 particular types or items of Loan collateral pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that (1) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release, transfer or sale on terms that, in Administrative Agent's opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the transfer, release or sale without recourse, representation or warranty, and (ii) such transfer, release or sale shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of Borrower other than those expressly being released. (d) [Reserved]. 5.11 Application of Payments.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Payments due and payable to Defaulting Lenders shall be due and payable to and be apportioned pro rata among Administrative Agent and Electing Lenders. Such apportionment shall be in the proportion that the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts paid by them bears to the total Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts of such Defaulting Lender. Such apportionment shall be made until the Administrative Agent and Lenders have been paid in full for the Defaulting Payment Amounts. All pro rata Payments shall be remitted to Administrative Agent and all such payments not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of the Loan collateral received by Administrative Agent, shall be applied first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or costs and expenses (including those in Section 5.7) and reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent from Borrower; second, to pay any fees or costs and expenses then due to Lenders from Borrower; third, to pay pro rata interest due in respect of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; fourth, .to pay or prepay principal of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; and fifth, pro rata, to pay any remaining Indebtedness due to Defaulting Lenders. 5.12 Benefit. The terms and conditions of this Article are inserted for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders; the same may be waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, without prejudicing Administrative Agent's or Lenders' rights to later assert them in whole or in part. 5.13 Co-Agents; Lead Managers. None of the Lenders identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a "syndication agent", "documentation agent", "co-agent" or "lead manager" shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of Lenders so identified as a "syndication agent", "documentation agent", "co- agent" or "lead manager" shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 28 5.14 Required Position for Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent in its capacity as a "Lender" shall maintain a Commitment amount equal to or greater than the next highest Lender's Commitment amount, up to $25,000,000.00.

Administrative Agent's or Lender's acceptance of an assignment of the Plans for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not constitute approval of the Plans. Any inspection or audit of the Property or the books and records of Borrower, or the procuring of documents and financial and other information, by or on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be for Administrative Agent and Lender's protection only, and shall not constitute an assumption of responsibility from Borrower or anyone else with regard to the condition, construction, maintenance or operation of the Property, or relieve Borrower of any of Borrower's obligations. Borrower has selected all surveyors, architects, engineers, contractors, materialmen and all other persons or entities furnishing services or materials to the Project. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty to supervise or to inspect the Property or the construction of the Improvements nor any duty of care to Borrower or any other person to protect against, or inform Borrower or any other person of the existence of, negligent, faulty, inadequate or defective design or construction of the Improvements. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be liable or responsible for, and Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively, the "Indemnities") from and against: (a) any claim, action, loss or cost (including attorney's fees and costs) arising from or relating to (1) any defect in the Property or the Improvements, (ii) the performance or default of Borrower, Borrower's surveyors, architects, engineers, contractors, the Construction Consultant, or any other person, (iii) any failure to construct, complete, protect or insure the Improvements, (iv) the payment of costs of labor, materials, or services supplied for the construction of the Improvements, (v) in connection with the protection and preservation of the Loan collateral (including those with respect to property taxes, insurance premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or (vi) the performance of any obligation of Borrower whatsoever; (b) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including attorney fees and costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (1) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions 29 contemplated thereby, (ii) any Commitment or Loan, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; (c) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action arising out of or relating to the use of Information (as defined in Section 6.6) or other materials obtained by third parties through Borrower's use of internet, Intralinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement; and (d) any and all liabilities, losses, costs or expenses (including attorney fees and costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding and whether it is defeated, successful or withdrawn, (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements result from the gross negligence or reckless or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Nothing, including any advance or acceptance of any document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by Administrative Agent or Lenders. Inspection shall not constitute an acknowledgment or representation by Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Construction Consultant that there has been or will be compliance with the Plans, the Loan Documents, or applicable laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants, or that the construction is free from defective materials or workmanship. Inspection, whether or not followed by notice of Default, shall not constitute a waiver of any Default then existing, or a waiver of Administrative Agent and Lender's right thereafter to insist that the Improvements be constructed in accordance with the Plans, the Loan Documents, and all applicable laws, governmental requirements and restrictive covenants. Administrative Agent's failure to inspect shall not constitute a waiver of any of Administrative Agent or Lender's rights under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity.

This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, all of which are identical, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A determination that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Agreement to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons, entities or circumstances. Time shall be of the essence with respect to Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents. This Agreement, and its validity, enforcement and interpretation, shall be governed by South Carolina law (without regard to any conflict of laws principles) and applicable United States federal law. 30 (a) Quality of Documents. Each document and item required to be submitted to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Commitment shall be satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent and its legal counsel. 6.3 Notices. (a) Modes of Delivery; Changes. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by courier, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile (with, subject to subsection 6.3(b) below, a confirmatory duplicate copy sent by first class United States mail), addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses set forth at the end of this Agreement or by (subject to subsection 6.3(c) below) sent to the electronic mail address specified for notices on the Schedule of Lenders (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason. (b) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on all parties to the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof, provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. (c) Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be used for any other purpose.

The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic 31 notices to and other communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. Except with respect to amendments to the Loan Documents as provided in Section 6.9 below, if a Lender does not notify or inform Administrative Agent of whether or not it consents to, or approves of or agrees to any matter of any nature whatsoever with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is required under the express provisions of this Agreement or with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is otherwise requested by Administrative Agent, in connection with the Loan or any matter pertaining to the Loan, within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as may be specified by Administrative Agent) after such consent, approval or agreement is requested by Administrative Agent, the Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent, approval or agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the matter in question. 6.4 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 6.5 Successors and Assigns.

Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 6.8 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the portions of the Loan advanced by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the portions of the Loan made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such portions of the Loan or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (1) the amount of such paying Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.

In the event of any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. The filing of a court action is not intended to constitute a waiver of the right of Borrower or Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the suing party, thereafter to require submittal of the Dispute to arbitration. Any party to this Agreement may bring an action, including a summary or expedited proceeding, to compel arbitration of any Dispute in any court having jurisdiction over such action. For the purposes of this dispute resolution provision only, the terms "party" and "parties" shall include any parent corporation, subsidiary or affiliate of Administrative Agent or any Lender involved in the servicing, management or administration of any obligation described in or evidenced by this Agreement, together with the officers, employees, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing. (b) Special Rules. (i) The arbitration shall be conducted in any U.S. state where real or tangible personal property collateral is located, or if there is no such collateral, in the City and County where Administrative Agent is located pursuant to its address for notice purposes in this Agreement. (ii) The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS, who will appoint an arbitrator; if JAMS is unable or legally precluded from administering the arbitration, then the American Arbitration Association will serve. All Disputes shall be determined by one arbitrator; however, if the amount in controversy in a Dispute exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), upon the request of any party, the Dispute shall be decided by three arbitrators (for purposes of this Agreement, referred to collectively as the "arbitrator"). (iii) All arbitration hearings will be commenced within ninety (90) days of the demand for arbitration and completed within ninety (90) days from the date of commencement; provided, however, that upon a showing of good cause, the arbitrator shall be permitted to extend the commencement of such hearing for up to an additional sixty (60) days. (iv) The judgment and the award, if any, of the arbitrator shall be issued within thirty (30) days of the close of the hearing. The arbitrator shall provide a concise written statement setting forth the reasons for the judgment and for the award, if any. The arbitration award, if any, may be submitted to any court having jurisdiction to be confirmed and enforced, and such confirmation and enforcement shall not be subject to arbitration 42 (v) The arbitrator will have the authority to decide whether any Dispute is barred by the statute of limitations and, if so, to dismiss the arbitration on that basis. For purposes of the application of the statute of limitations, the service on JAMS under applicable JAMS rules of a notice of Disputes is the equivalent of the filing of a lawsuit. (vi) Any dispute concerning this arbitration provision, including any such dispute as to the validity or enforceability of this provision, or whether a Dispute is arbitrable, shall be determined by the arbitrator. (vii) The arbitrator shall have the power to award legal fees and costs pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. (c) Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to (1) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of limitation and any waivers contained in this Agreement, or (ii) apply to or limit the right of Administrative Agent or any Lender (A) to exercise self help remedies such as (but not limited to) setoff, or (B) to foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property collateral, or to exercise judicial or nonjudicial power of sale rights, (C) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary remedies such as (but not limited to) injunctive relief, writ of possession, prejudgment attachment, or the appointment of a receiver, or (D) to pursue rights against a party to this Agreement in a third- party proceeding in any action brought against Administrative Agent or any Lender in a state, federal or international court, tribunal or hearing body (including actions in specialty courts, such as bankruptcy and patent courts). Administrative Agent may exercise the rights set forth in clauses (A) through (D), inclusive, before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding brought pursuant to this Agreement. Neither the exercise of self help remedies nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the claimant in any such action, to arbitrate the merits of the Dispute occasioning resort to such remedies. No provision in the Loan Documents regarding submission to jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions in any Loan Document for arbitration of any Dispute. (d) Conflicting Provisions for Dispute Resolution. If there is any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section and those of any other provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section shall prevail as to any Dispute arising out of or relating to (i) this Agreement, (ii) any other Loan Document, (iii) any related agreements or instruments, or (iv) the transaction contemplated herein or therein (including any claim based on or arising from an alleged personal injury or business tort). In any other situation, if the resolution of a given Dispute is specifically governed by another provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution, the other provision or agreement shall prevail with respect to said Dispute. (e) Jury Trial Waiver in Arbitration. By agreeing to this Section, the parties irrevocably and voluntarily waive any right they may have to a trial by jury in respect of any Dispute. 6.20 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 43 WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES' AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ANY DISPUTE AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, TO THE EXTENT ANY DISPUTE IS NOT SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION OR IS DEEMED BY THE ARBITRATOR OR BY ANY COURT WITH JURISDICTION TO BE NOT ARBITRABLE OR NOT REQUIRED TO BE ARBITRATED, BORROWER AND LENDER WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH DISPUTE AND ANY ACTION ON SUCH DISPUTE.

Unless Borrower pays such interest from other resources, Administrative Agent may advance Loan funds pursuant to this Section for interest payments as and when due. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to permit Borrower to defer payment of interest on the Loan beyond the date(s) due. The allocation of Loan funds in the Budget for interest shall not affect Borrower's absolute obligation to pay the same in accordance with the Loan Documents.

All conditions precedent to the obligation of Lenders to make any advance are imposed hereby solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, and no other party may require satisfaction of any such condition precedent or be entitled to assume that Lenders will refuse to make any advance in the absence of strict compliance with such conditions precedent. Administrative Agent shall have the right to approve and verify the periodic progress, costs incurred by Borrower, and the estimated costs remaining to be incurred, after consultation with the Construction Consultant. No advance shall constitute an approval or acceptance by Administrative Agent of any construction work, or a waiver of any condition precedent to any further advance, or preclude Administrative Agent from thereafter declaring the failure of Borrower to satisfy such condition precedent to be a Default. No waiver by Administrative Agent of any condition precedent or obligation shall preclude Administrative Agent from requiring such condition or obligation to be met prior to making any other advance or from thereafter declaring the failure to satisfy such condition or obligation to be a Default. 8. Funding. Borrower shall establish and maintain a special account with Administrative Agent into which advances funded directly to Borrower (but no other funds), and excluding direct disbursements made to or by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders pursuant to this Agreement, shall be deposited by Borrower, and against which checks shall be drawn only for the payment of costs specified in the Budget, but which special account shall not be used for any other purpose. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to deposit each advance requested by Borrower to the credit of Borrower in that account, by wire transfer or other deposit. Advances may also be made, in addition to other methods contemplated herein, at Administrative Agent's option, by direct or joint check payment to any or all persons entitled to payment for work or services performed or material furnished in connection with the Project or the Loan, or by having the proceeds thereof made available to the Title Insurer (or its agent) for disbursement.

Note; Interest; Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. This Note is one of the Notes referred to in Loan Agreement and is entitled to the benefits thereof and subject to prepayment in whole or part as provided therein. The entire principal balance of this Note then unpaid shall be due and payable at the times as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the times and at the interest rate as set forth in the Loan Agreement until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Note shall have been fully paid and satisfied. Any amount not paid when due and payable hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, bear interest and if applicable a late charge as set forth in the Loan Agreement. 2. Security; Loan Documents. The security for this Note includes a Mortgage, Assignment of Rents and Leases, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (which, as it may have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, is herein called the "Mortgage") dated of even date herewith from Borrower to Administrative Agent and Lenders, covering certain property in Horry County, South Carolina described therein (the "Property"). This Note, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement and all other documents now or hereafter securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the loan evidenced by this Note (the "Loan"), are, as the same have been or may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, herein sometimes called individually a "Loan Document" and together the "Loan Documents." 3.

No failure by Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise, nor delay in exercising any Right, including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of this Note, shall be construed as a waiver of any Default or as a waiver of any Right. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the acceptance by Lender from time to time of any payment under this Note which is past due or which is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment, shall not (i) constitute a waiver of or impair or extinguish the right of Administrative Agent or Lenders to accelerate the maturity of this Note or to exercise any other Right at the time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such Right, or (ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect.

Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Note and of the other Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS Administrative Agent, Lenders, and Grande Palms, L.L.C. ("Borrower"), have entered into, are entering into concurrently herewith, or contemplate entering into, that certain Construction Loan Agreement dated of even date herewith (herein called, as it may hereafter be modified, supplemented, restated, extended, or renewed and in effect from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"), which Loan Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of a loan (the "Loan") to Borrower for the construction of the Improvements on, and with respect to, land located in Horry County, South Carolina, as more particularly described in the Loan Agreement and identified therein as the Land. A condition precedent to Lenders' and Administrative Agent's obligation to make the Loan to Borrower is Guarantor's execution and delivery to Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders of this Guaranty. The Loan is, or will be, evidenced by those certain Promissory Notes designated as "Promissory Note (Name of Lender)" of even date with the Loan Agreement, executed by Borrower and payable to the order of particular Lenders in the aggregate principal face amount of Sixty-Nine Million Eight Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($69,800,000.00) (such notes, as each may hereafter be renewed, extended, supplemented, increased or modified and in effect from time to time, and all other notes given in substitution therefor, or in modification, renewal, or extension thereof, in whole or in part, is herein called, collectively, the "Note"). Any capitalized term used and not defined in this Guaranty shall have the meaning given to such term in the Loan Agreement. This Guaranty is one of the Loan Documents described in the Loan Agreement. STATEMENT OF AGREEMENTS For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and as a material inducement to Administrative Agent and the Lenders to extend credit to Borrower, Guarantor hereby guarantees to Administrative Agent and the Lenders the prompt payment of the Indebtedness (collectively called the "Guaranteed Obligations"), this Guaranty being upon the following terms and conditions: 1 1. Guaranty of Payment. Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Administrative Agent and the Lenders the punctual payment when due, whether by lapse of time, by acceleration of maturity, or otherwise, of principal, interest (including interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding by or against Borrower, whether or not allowed in such proceeding), fees, late charges, costs, expenses, indemnification indebtedness, and other sums of money now or hereafter due and owing, or which Borrower is obligated to pay, pursuant to (i) the terms of the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Environmental Agreement, Swap Contract, any application, agreement, note or other document executed and delivered in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any other Loan Documents and any indemnifications contained in the Loan Documents, now or hereafter existing, and (ii) all renewals, extensions, refinancings, modifications, supplements or amendments of such indebtedness, or any of the Loan Documents, or any part thereof (the indebtedness described in clauses (1) and (ii) above in this Section 1 is herein collectively called the "Indebtedness"); provided such renewals, extensions, financings, modifications, supplements or amendments are made with Guarantor's written consent. This Guaranty covers the Indebtedness, whether presently outstanding or arising subsequent to the date hereof, including all amounts advanced by Administrative Agent in stages or installments. The guaranty of Guarantor as set forth in this Section 1 is a continuing guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection. 2. [Reserved.] 3. Primary Liability of Guarantor. (a) This Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment. Guarantor shall be liable for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations as a primary obligor. This Guaranty shall be effective as a waiver of, and Guarantor hereby expressly waives, any and all rights to which Guarantor may otherwise have been entitled under any suretyship laws in effect from time to time, including any right or privilege, whether existing under statute, at law or in equity, to require Administrative Agent to take prior recourse or proceedings against any collateral, security or Person (hereinafter defined) whatsoever. (b) Guarantor hereby agrees that in the event of a Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) by Borrower in payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, when such indebtedness becomes due, either by its terms or as the result of the exercise of any power to accelerate, Guarantor shall, on demand and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, further notice of nonpayment or of dishonor, default or nonperformance, or notice of acceleration or of intent to accelerate, or any other notice whatsoever, without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the acceptance by Administrative Agent of this Guaranty, and without any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the creating or incurring of such indebtedness, all such notices being hereby waived by Guarantor, pay the amount due thereon to Administrative Agent and pay all costs and expenses that may arise in consequence of such Event of Default (including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, investigation costs, court costs, and any and all other costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Administrative Agent or the Lenders in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Note or any other Loan Document), whether or not suit is filed thereon, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after 2 maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal. It shall not be necessary for Administrative Agent, in order to enforce such payment by Guarantor, first to institute suit or pursue or exhaust any rights or remedies against Borrower or others liable on such indebtedness or for such performance, or to enforce any rights against any security that shall ever have been given to secure such indebtedness or performance, or to join Borrower or any others liable for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof in any action to enforce this Guaranty, or to resort to any other means of obtaining payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent Administrative Agent from suing on the Note or foreclosing the Mortgage or from exercising any other rights thereunder, and if such foreclosure or other remedy is availed of, only the net proceeds therefrom, after deduction of all charges and expenses of every kind and nature whatsoever, shall be applied in reduction of the amount due on the Note and Mortgage, and Administrative Agent shall not be required to institute or prosecute proceedings to recover any deficiency as a condition of payment hereunder or enforcement hereof. At any sale of the Property or other collateral given for the Indebtedness or any part thereof, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, Administrative Agent may at its discretion purchase all or any part of the Property or collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may, in payment of the amount bid therefor, deduct such amount from the balance due it pursuant to the terms of the Note, Mortgage and other Loan Documents. (c) Suit may be brought or demand may be made against Borrower or against the Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any one or more of them, separately or together, without impairing the rights of Administrative Agent or the Lenders against any party hereto. 4. Certain Agreements and Waivers by Guarantor. (a) Guarantor hereby agrees that neither Administrative Agent's nor Lenders' rights or remedies nor Guarantor's obligations under the terms of this Guaranty shall be released, diminished, impaired, reduced or affected by any one or more of the following events, actions, facts, or circumstances, and the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any limitation of liability or recourse in any other Loan Document or arising under any law;

(b) In the event any payment by Borrower or any other Person to Administrative Agent or the Lenders is held to constitute a preference, fraudulent transfer or other voidable payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or if for any other reason Administrative Agent or Lenders are required to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other party, such payment by Borrower or any other party to Administrative Agent or Lenders shall not constitute a release of Guarantor from any liability hereunder, and this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated (notwithstanding any prior release, surrender or discharge by Administrative Agent of this Guaranty or of Guarantor), as the case may be, with respect to, and this Guaranty shall apply to, any and all amounts so refunded by Administrative Agent or Lenders or paid by Administrative Agent or Lenders to another Person (which amounts shall constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations), and any interest paid by Administrative Agent or Lenders and any attorneys' fees, costs and expenses paid or incurred by Administrative Agent or Lenders in connection with any such event. It is the intent of Guarantor and Administrative Agent that the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder are absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and that until the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and finally paid, and not subject to refund or disgorgement, the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or released, in whole or in part, by any act or occurrence that might, but for the provisions of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge or release of a guarantor. (c) If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by Borrower under the Note, the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Document is stayed or delayed by any law or tribunal, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Guarantor on demand by Administrative Agent. (d) Guarantor agrees that neither the Guarantor nor anyone claiming through or under the Guarantor shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws now or hereafter in force, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of the Mortgage or the absolute sale of the Property or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereat, and the Guarantor, for themselves and all who may at any time claim through or under any of them, hereby waive the benefit of all such laws and any and all rights to have the assets comprising the Property marshalled upon any foreclosure of the Mortgage. 5. Subordination. If, for any reason whatsoever, Borrower is now or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor: (a) such indebtedness and all interest thereon and all liens, security interests and rights now or hereafter existing with respect to property of Borrower securing such indebtedness shall, at all times, be subordinate in all respects to the Guaranteed Obligations and to all liens, 6 security interests and rights now or hereafter existing to secure the Guaranteed Obligations. All promissory notes or other evidences of such indebtedness of Borrower, now or hereafter held by Guarantor, of obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is .subordinated under and is subject to the terms of this Guaranty; and (b) Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment, directly or indirectly, of any such indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid except for the project management fees to be paid by Borrower to the Guarantor under the Budget or other amounts specifically identified in the Budget. 6. Other Liability of Guarantor or Borrower. If Guarantor is or becomes liable, by endorsement or otherwise, for any indebtedness owing by Borrower to Lenders or Administrative Agent other than under this Guaranty, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of Lenders and Administrative Agent hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights that Lenders and Administrative Agent may have against Guarantor. If Borrower is or becomes indebted to Lenders and Administrative Agent for any indebtedness other than or in excess of the Indebtedness for which Guarantor is liable under this Guaranty, any payment received or recovery realized upon any indebtedness of Borrower to Lenders or Administrative Agent may, except to the extent paid by Guarantor on the Indebtedness or specifically required by law or agreement of Administrative Agent to be applied to the Indebtedness, in Administrative Agent's sole discretion, be applied upon indebtedness of Borrower to Lenders or Administrative Agent other than the Indebtedness. This Guaranty is independent of (and shall not be limited by) any other guaranty now existing or hereafter given. Further, Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty is in addition to any and all other liability Guarantor may have in any other capacity, including without limitation, its capacity as a general partner. 7. Administrative Agent. Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and Administrative Agent's successors and assigns, and in the event of an assignment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, the rights and benefits hereunder, to the extent applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations so assigned, may be transferred with such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor waives notice of any transfer or assignment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, and agrees that failure to give notice of any such transfer or assignment will not affect the liabilities of Guarantor hereunder. 8. Binding Effect. This Guaranty is binding not only on Guarantor, but also on Guarantor's successors and assigns. 9. Governing Law; Forum; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Guaranty is an agreement executed under seal. The validity, enforcement, and interpretation of this Guaranty, shall for all purposes be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of South Carolina and applicable United States federal law, and is intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, such laws. If any Guarantor is a corporation, the designation "(SEAL)" on this Guaranty shall be effective as the affixing of such Guarantor's corporate seal physically to this Guaranty. All obligations of Guarantor hereunder are payable and performable at the place or places where the Guaranteed Obligations are payable and 7 performable. Guarantor hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for Guarantor and in respect of Guarantor's property to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in the first sentence of this Section and to the jurisdiction of any state or United States federal court sitting in the state in which any of the Land is located, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that Guarantor may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. Final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon Guarantor and may be enforced in any court in which Guarantor is subject to jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in the first sentence of this Section may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Guarantor at the address set forth at the end of this Guaranty, or at a subsequent address of which Administrative Agent received actual notice from Guarantor in accordance with the notice provisions hereof, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Administrative Agent to serve process in any manner permitted by law or limit the right of Administrative Agent to bring proceedings against Guarantor in any other court or jurisdiction. The authority and power to appear for and enter judgment against the Guarantor shall not be exhausted by one or more exercises thereof or by any imperfect exercise thereof and shall not be extinguished by any judgment entered pursuant thereto. Such authority may be exercised on one or more occasions or from time to time in the same or different jurisdiction as often as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary and desirable. 10. Invalidity of Certain Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall, for any reason and too any extent, be declared to be invalid or unenforceable, neither the remaining provisions of this Guaranty nor the application of such provision to any other Person or circumstance shall be affected thereby, and the remaining provisions of this Guaranty, or the applicability of such provision to other Persons or circumstances, as applicable, shall remain in effect and be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. 11. Attorneys' Fees and Costs of Collection. Guarantor shall pay on demand all attorneys' fees and all other costs and expenses incurred by Lenders or Administrative Agent in the enforcement of or preservation of Lenders' or Administrative Agent's rights under this Guaranty including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees and expenses, investigation costs, and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed herein, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal. Guarantor agrees to pay interest on any expenses or other sums due to Administrative Agent under this Section 11 that are not paid when due, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate provided for in the Note. Guarantor's obligations and liabilities under this Section 11 shall survive any payment or discharge in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. 8 12. Payments. All sums payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. 13. Controlling Agreement. It is not the intention of Administrative Agent or Guarantor to obligate Guarantor to pay interest in excess of that lawfully permitted to be paid by Guarantor under applicable law. Should it be determined that any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other amount payable by Guarantor under this Guaranty constitutes interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest that Guarantor, in Guarantor's capacity as guarantor, may lawfully be required to pay under applicable law, the obligation of Guarantor to pay such interest shall automatically be limited to the payment thereof in the maximum amount so permitted under applicable law. The provisions of this Section 13 shall override and control all other provisions of this Guaranty and of any other agreement between Guarantor and Administrative Agent. 14. Representations, Warranties, and Covenants of Guarantor. Guarantor hereby represents, warrants, and covenants that (a) Guarantor has a financial interest in the Borrower, is (directly or indirectly) a member of Borrower, and will derive a material and substantial benefit, directly or indirectly, from the making of the Loan to Borrower and from the making of this Guaranty by Guarantor; (b) this Guaranty is duly authorized and valid, and is binding upon and enforceable against Guarantor; (c) Guarantor is not, and the execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty will not cause Guarantor to be, in violation of or in default with respect to any law or in default under any agreement or restriction by which Guarantor is bound or affected; (d) Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization and under such laws, and has full power and authority to enter into and perform this Guaranty; (e) the Guarantor will indemnify the Lenders and Administrative Agent from any loss, cost or expense as a result of any representation or warranty of the Guarantor being false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect; (f) [reserved]; (g) all financial statements and information heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent by Guarantor do, and all financial statements and information hereafter furnished to Administrative Agent by Guarantor will, present the financial condition of Guarantor as of their dates and the results of Guarantor's operations for the periods therein specified, and, since the date of the most recent financial statements of Guarantor heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent, no material adverse change has occurred in the financial condition of Guarantor; (h) after giving effect to this Guaranty, Guarantor is solvent, is not engaged or about to engage in business or a transaction for which the property of Guarantor is an unreasonably small capital, and does not intend to incur or believe that it will incur debts that will be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature; (i) Administrative Agent and Lenders have no duty at any time to investigate or inform Guarantor of the financial or business condition or affairs of Borrower or any change therein, and Guarantor will keep fully appraised of Borrower's financial and business condition; (j) Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Guarantor may be required to pay the Guaranteed Obligations in full without assistance or support from the Borrower or any other Person; and (k) Guarantor has read and fully understands the provisions contained in the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Environmental Agreement, and the other Loan Documents. Guarantor's representations, warranties and covenants are a material inducement to Lenders and Administrative Agent to enter into the other Loan Documents and shall survive the execution 9 hereof and any bankruptcy, foreclosure, transfer of security or other event affecting Borrower, Guarantor, any other party, or any security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations. 15. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the addresses specified in this Guaranty (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by telegram, telex, or facsimile. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of telegram, telex or facsimile, upon receipt; provided that, service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Guaranty or in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason. 16. Cumulative Rights. The exercise by Administrative Agent of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy. Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have all rights, remedies and recourses afforded to Administrative Agent and the Lenders by reason of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document or by law or equity or otherwise, and the same (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Guarantor or others obligated for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, or against any one or more of them, or against any security or otherwise, at the sole discretion of Administrative Agent, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, it being agreed by Guarantor that the exercise of, discontinuance of the exercise of or failure to exercise any of such rights, remedies, or recourses shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy, or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No waiver of any default on the part of Guarantor or of any breach of any of the provisions of this Guaranty or of any other document shall be considered a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach, and no delay or omission in exercising or enforcing the rights and powers granted herein or in any other document shall be construed as a waiver of such rights and powers, and no exercise or enforcement of any rights or powers hereunder or under any other document shall be held to exhaust such rights and powers, and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time. The granting of any consent, approval or waiver by Administrative Agent shall be limited to the specific instance and purpose therefor and shall not constitute consent or approval in any other instance or for any other purpose. No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall of itself entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No provision of this Guaranty or any right, remedy or recourse of Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect hereto, or any default or breach, can be waived, nor can this Guaranty or Guarantor be released or discharged in any way or to any extent, except specifically in each case by a writing intended 10 for that purpose (and which refers specifically to this Guaranty) executed, and delivered to Guarantor, by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders. 17.

Administrative Agent and Lenders may sell or offer to sell the Loan or interests in the Loan to one or more assignees or participants and may disclose to any such assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant, to Administrative Agent's affiliates, including without limitation Banc of America Securities LLC, to any regulatory body having jurisdiction over Lenders or Administrative Agent and to any other parties as necessary or appropriate in Administrative Agent's reasonable judgment, any information Administrative Agent now has or hereafter obtains pertaining to the Guaranteed Obligations, this Guaranty, or Guarantor, including, without limitation, information regarding any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for this Guaranty, credit or other information on Guarantor, Borrower, and/or any other party liable, directly or indirectly, for any part of the Guaranteed Obligations. 20. Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Guarantor shall not exercise any right of subrogation in or under any of the Loan Documents or to participate in any way therein, or in any right, title or interest in and to any security or right of recourse for the Indebtedness or any right to reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or any similar rights, until the Indebtedness has been fully and finally paid. This waiver is given to induce Administrative Agent and the Lenders to make the Loan to Borrower. 21. [Reserved]. 22. No Fiduciary Relationship. The relationship between the Lenders', Administrative Agent and Guarantor is solely that of lender and guarantor. Administrative Agent and the Lenders have no fiduciary or other special relationship with or duty to Guarantor and none is created hereby or may be inferred from any course of dealing or act or omission of Administrative Agent and the Lenders. 23.

Whenever the context of any provisions hereof shall require it, 11 words in the singular shall include the plural, words in the plural shall include the singular, and pronouns of any gender shall include the other genders. Captions and headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of the Loan Documents. All references in this Guaranty to Schedules, Articles, Sections, Subsections, paragraphs and subparagraphs refer to the respective subdivisions of this Guaranty, unless such reference specifically identifies another document. The terms "herein", "hereof', "hereto", "hereunder" and similar terms refer to this Guaranty and not to any particular Section or subsection of this Guaranty. The terms "include" and "including" shall be interpreted as if followed by the words "without limitation". All references in this Guaranty to sums denominated in dollars or with the symbol "$" refer to the lawful currency of the United States of America, unless such reference specifically identifies another currency. For purposes of this Guaranty, "Person" or "Persons" shall include firms, associations, partnerships (including limited partnerships), joint ventures, trusts, corporations, limited liability companies, and other legal entities, including governmental bodies, agencies, or instrumentalities, as well as natural persons. 24. Time of Essence. Time shall be of the essence in this Guaranty with respect to all of Guarantor's obligations hereunder. 25. Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which, for all purposes, shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 26. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty embodies the entire agreement between Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and Guarantor with respect to the guaranty by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, if any, with respect to the guaranty by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations. No condition or conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty exist. This Guaranty shall be effective upon execution by Guarantor and delivery to Administrative Agent. This Guaranty may not be modified, amended or superseded except in a writing signed by Administrative Agent and Guarantor referencing this Guaranty by its date and specifically identifying the portions hereof that are to be modified, amended or superseded. 27. Dispute Resolution. (a) Arbitration. Except to the extent expressly provided below, any controversy, claim or dispute between or among the parties hereto, including any such controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to (1) this Guaranty, (ii) any other Loan Document, (iii) any related agreements or instruments, or (iv) the transaction contemplated herein or therein (including any claim based on or arising from an alleged personal injury or business tort) (collectively, a "Dispute"), shall, upon the request of either party, be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, Title 9, United States Code (or if not applicable, the applicable state law), the applicable rules for arbitration of disputes of JAMS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or any successor thereof ("JAMS"), and the "Special Rules" set forth below. In the event of any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. The filing of a court action is not intended to constitute a waiver of the right of Guarantor or Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the suing party, thereafter to require submittal of the Dispute to arbitration. Any party to this Guaranty may bring an action, including a summary or expedited 12 proceeding, to compel arbitration of any Dispute in any court having jurisdiction over such action. For the purposes of this dispute resolution provision only, the terms "party" and "parties" shall include any parent corporation, subsidiary or affiliate of Administrative Agent or any Lender involved in the servicing, management or administration of any obligation described in or evidenced by this Guaranty, together with the officers, employees, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing. (b) Special Rules. (i) The arbitration shall be conducted in any U.S. state where real or tangible personal property collateral is located, or if there is no such collateral in the City and County where Administrative Agent or any Lender is located pursuant to its address for notice purposes in this Guaranty. (ii) The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS, who will appoint an arbitrator; if JAMS is unable to administer or legally precluded from administering the arbitration, then the American Arbitration Association will serve. All Disputes shall be determined by one arbitrator; however, if the amount in controversy in a Dispute exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), upon the request of any party, the Dispute shall be decided by three arbitrators (for purposes of this Guaranty, referred to collectively as the "arbitrator"). (iii) All arbitration hearings will be commenced within ninety (90) days of the demand for arbitration and completed within ninety (90) days from the date of commencement; provided, however, that upon a showing of good cause, the arbitrator shall be permitted to extend the commencement of such hearing for up to an additional sixty (60) days. (iv) The judgment and the award, if any, of the arbitrator shall be issued with thirty (30) days of the close of the hearing. The arbitrator shall provide a concise written statement setting forth the reasons for the judgment and for the award, if any. The arbitration award, if any, may be submitted to any court having jurisdiction to be confirmed and enforced, and such confirmation and enforcement shall not be subject to arbitration (v) The arbitrator will have the authority to decide whether any Dispute is barred by the statute of limitations and, if so, to dismiss the arbitration on that basis. For purposes of the application of the statute of limitations, the service on JAMS under applicable JAMS rules of a notice of Disputes is the equivalent of the filing of a lawsuit. (vi) Any dispute concerning this arbitration provision, including any such dispute as to the validity or enforceability of this provision, or whether a Dispute is arbitrable, shall be determined by the arbitrator. (vii) The arbitrator shall have the power to award legal fees and costs pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty. 13 (c) Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Guaranty shall be deemed to (i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of limitation and any waivers contained in this Guaranty, or (ii) apply to or limit the right of Administrative Agent or any Lender (A) to exercise self help remedies such as (but not limited to) setoff, or (B) to foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property collateral, or to exercise judicial or nonjudicial power of sale rights, (C) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary remedies such as (but not limited to) injunctive relief, writ of possession, prejudgment attachment, or the appointment of a receiver, or (D) to pursue rights against a party to this Guaranty in a third-party proceeding in any action brought against Lender in a state, federal or international court, tribunal or hearing body (including actions in specialty courts, such as bankruptcy and patent courts). Administrative Agent may exercise the rights set forth in clauses (A) through (D), inclusive, before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding brought pursuant to this Guaranty. Neither the exercise of self help remedies nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the claimant in any such action, to arbitrate the merits of the Dispute occasioning resort to such remedies. No provision in the Loan Documents regarding submission to jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions in any Loan Document for arbitration of any Dispute. (d) Conflicting Provisions for Dispute Resolution. If there is any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section and those of any other provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section shall prevail as to any Dispute arising out of or relating to (i) this Guaranty, (ii) any other Loan Document, (iii) any related agreements or instruments, or (iv) the transaction contemplated herein or therein (including any claim based on or arising from an alleged personal injury or business tort). In any other situation, if the resolution of a given Dispute is specifically governed by another provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution, the other provision or agreement shall prevail with respect to said Dispute. (e) Jury Trial Waiver in Arbitration. By agreeing to this Section, the parties irrevocably and voluntarily waive any right they may have to a trial by jury in respect of any Dispute. 28. Forum. Guarantor hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for itself and in respect of its property to the jurisdiction of any state court or any United States federal court sitting in the State specified in the governing law section of this Guaranty and to the jurisdiction of any state court or any United States federal court sitting in the state in which any of the Property is located, over any Dispute. Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that Guarantor may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. Guarantor hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court or any United States federal court sitting in the state specified in the governing law section 14 of this Guaranty may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Guarantor at its address for notice set forth in this Guaranty, or at a subsequent address of which Administrative Agent received actual notice from Guarantor in accordance with the notice section of this Guaranty, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed.

Waiver of Appraisal Rights. The laws of South Carolina provide that in any real estate foreclosure proceeding a defendant against whom a personal judgment is taken or asked may within thirty days after the sale of the mortgaged property apply to the court for an order of appraisal. The statutory appraisal value as approved by the court would be substituted for the high bid and may decrease the amount of any deficiency owing in connection with the transaction.
