Gulf Plaza Taxes.  


(a)

Property taxes on a portion of the Gulf Plaza Land (the “Additional Tax Portion”) are assessed, rather than on the basis of the Gulf Plaza Land, on the basis of a parcel of land and improvements adjacent to the Gulf Plaza Land (the “Adjacent Parcel”).  Until the Lender has notified the Borrowers that the Additional Tax Portion of the Gulf Plaza Land is taxed by property tax authorities solely on the basis of the Gulf Plaza Land in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Lender (the “Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Termination Date”), Borrowers shall:


(i)

maintain or cause to be maintained with Lender in a separate account cash in an amount equal to or in excess of the property tax liability for the Adjacent Parcel (the “Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow”);


(ii)

within ten (10) days after the last day of each calendar quarter, deliver to Lender (A) a report in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender certified by the chief financial officer of Gulf Plaza specifying the then-current amount of the property tax liability for the Adjacent Parcel (the “Current Tax Liability”) and (B) if the Current Tax Liability exceeds the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow, such amount as is necessary to cause the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow to equal or exceed the Current Tax Liability.


(b)

If, following five (5) days of the earlier of notice from Lender or any Borrower’s knowledge thereof, the amount of the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow is less than the Current Tax Liability, it shall be an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents.


(c)

Each of the Borrowers hereby assigns, transfers, and conveys to Lender all of such Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow, any and all accounts related thereto (together with any and all replacement accounts or substitutions), and all funds now or hereafter on deposit in connection with the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow, including all cash, cash equivalents and deposits, certificates of deposit, securities, substitutions, additions, and proceeds thereof, and interest and earnings thereon (hereinafter collectively called the “Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral”).  Each of the Borrowers hereby grants to Lender a security interest in the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral and, upon the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the failure of the Borrowers to strictly comply with the terms of this Section 4.20, Lender shall be



LOAN MODIFICATION AGREEMENT – PAGE 3 = 1 "1253887-v6

entitled to withdraw and apply the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral toward the Indebtedness or the Current Tax Liability at the option of Lender.  Each of the Borrowers acknowledges the Borrowers shall not be permitted to withdraw or otherwise use any Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral until the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Termination Date.


(d)

Each of the Borrowers hereby warrants to Lender that the Borrowers own the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral free and clear of all Liens, and that the Borrowers have the unencumbered right to assign and transfer the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral to Lender.


(e)

Each of the Borrowers agrees to execute any and all assignments or other forms necessary to further assign the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral to Lender as Lender may reasonably request from time to time.  Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no access or right to the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral, and, furthermore, that the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral is for the benefit of Lender and shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender; provided, however, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred, upon the occurrence of the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Termination Date, Lender will withdraw and deliver to Borrowers (in accordance with wiring instructions delivered by Borrowers) funds of the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral maintained with Lender.


(f)

Each of the Borrowers hereby appoints Lender as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, to execute all documents and instruments and take all actions, in the name of the Borrowers (or any of them) or otherwise, as Lender shall reasonably deem necessary or expedient, to cause the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral to be received by, maintained with, made available to and utilized by Lender for the purposes of applying the same as specified herein.  The power of attorney contained herein is irrevocable and is coupled with an interest.


(g)

Each of the Borrowers agrees upon demand to pay, or reimburse Lender for all of Lender’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every type and nature (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of legal counsel) incurred by Lender in connection with the administration of the Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow and the matters contemplated hereunder, including consultation with attorneys in connection therewith and with respect to Lender’s rights and responsibilities, and exercise of Lender’s remedies in connection therewith.  Each of the Borrowers expressly authorizes Lender to use Gulf Plaza Tax Escrow Collateral for such purpose.


(h)

Each of the Borrowers shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold Lender (together with its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and attorneys-in-fact; each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, and damages, and all reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs and expenses actually incurred in
