(xiii) Borrower shall deliver to Lender confirmation, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, that all conditions to Defeasance have been met from any applicable Rating Agency that has required as a condition to Defeasance that such conditions have been met. (c) Purchase of U.S. Government Securities. For purposes of this Note, U.S. Government Securities shall mean government securities as defined in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. In connection with the Defeasance of this Note, Borrower hereby appoints Lender as its agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of using the Defeasance Deposit to purchase U.S. Government Securities (which purchases, if made by Lender, shall be made on an arms length basis at then prevailing market rates) which provide payments on or prior to, but as close as possible to, all successive Payment Dates after the Defeasance Date, (including the outstanding principal balance of this Note due on the Maturity Date), and in amounts equal to the full amounts due on each Payment Date under this Note ("Scheduled Defeasance Payments"). Borrower, pursuant to the Security Agreement or other appropriate document, shall irrevocably authorize and direct that the payments received from the U.S. Government Securities may be made directly to Lender and applied to satisfy the obligations of the Borrower under this Note. In connection with the Defeasance of the Loan, any portion of the Defeasance Deposit in excess of the amount necessary to purchase the U.S. Government Securities required by this Section 2.5(c) and satisfy Borrower's obligations under Section 2.5 shall be remitted to Borrower within thirty (30) days after their purchase. Any 6 amounts received in payment on the U.S. Government Securities in excess of the amounts necessary to make monthly payments pursuant to Section 2 (including payments due on the Maturity Date) shall be treated in accordance with the terms of Section 2.4 hereof. (d) Successor Borrower Option. If requested by Lender, in connection with a Defeasance of the Loan, Lender, at Borrower's expense, shall establish or designate one or more successor entities ("Successor Borrower") and Borrower shall transfer and assign all obligations, rights and duties under and to this Note arising after the Defeasance, together with the pledged U.S. Government Securities, to the Successor Borrower. The Successor Borrower shall assume in writing the obligations under this Note, the Security Agreement and the other Security Documents, by agreements in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, whereupon Borrower shall be relieved of its obligations thereunder. Borrower shall pay $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as consideration for assuming Borrower's obligations under the Note and the Security Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Note or the Security Instrument to the contrary, no other assumption fee shall be payable upon a transfer of this Note in accordance with this Section 2.5(d), but Borrower shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including Lender's reasonable attorneys fees and expenses, incurred in connection therewith. (e) Repayment Upon Default; Yield Maintenance. If all or any part of the principal amount of this Note is prepaid upon acceleration of this Note following the occurrence of an Event of Default prior to the Optional Prepayment Date, or if any part of the principal amount of this Note is prepaid pursuant to Section 1.2(g) hereof, then, in addition to such principal payment, Borrower shall be required to make such payments ("Yield Maintenance Payments") in an amount equal to the greater of (i) one percent (1%), or (ii) the excess, if any, of (A) the aggregate respective present values of all scheduled interest and principal payments payable on each Payment Date in respect of this Note for the period from the date of such prepayment upon acceleration to the Maturity Date, discounted monthly at a rate equal to the Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Index (defined below) and based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months over (B) the then current outstanding principal amount of this Note. For purposes hereof, "Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Index" shall mean the average yield for "This Week" as reported by the Federal Reserve Board in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15(519) ("FRB Release") published during the second full week preceding the Prepayment Date for instruments having a maturity coterminous with the remaining term of this Note. In the event the FRB Release is no longer published, Lender shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Index. If there is no Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Index for instruments having a maturity coterminous with the remaining term of this Note, then the weighted average yield to maturity of the Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Indices with maturities next longer and shorter than such remaining average life to maturity shall be used, calculated by averaging (and rounding upward to the nearest whole multiple of 1/100 of 1% per annum, if the average is not such a multiple) the yields of the relevant Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Indices (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100 of 1% with any figure of 1/200 of 1% or above rounded upward). The Yield Maintenance Payments to be paid in connection with any prepayment under this Section 2.5(e) shall be determined by Lender and 7 shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower (absent manifest error). For purposes of this Section 2.5(e), the unpaid principal amount due on this Note on the date of prepayment shall be determined after giving effect to any payment of scheduled amortization made on such date. (f) Release of the Mortgaged Property. No repayment, prepayment or Defeasance of all or any portion of this Note shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of the real or personal property subject to the lien or mortgage created by the Security Instrument (referred to in this Section 2.5(f) as "Mortgaged Property"), except as follows: (i) If Borrower has elected Defeasance, and the requirements of Section 2.5(b) have been satisfied, the Mortgaged Property shall be released from the lien and mortgage created by the Security Instrument, whereupon the U.S. Government Securities pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be the sole source of Borrower's collateral securing this Note. The Security Instrument shall otherwise remain in full force and effect as to provisions not pertaining to the Mortgaged Property. (ii) In connection with the release of the Mortgaged Property contemplated in this Section 2.5(f), Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Defeasance Date, a release of the Mortgaged Property (and related Security Documents approved by Lender) for execution by Lender which shall be in a form appropriate in the applicable state and otherwise satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable discretion, along with all other documentation Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such release (collectively, "Release Instruments"), together with a certification from Borrower, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, certifying that such documentation (A) is in compliance with all Legal Requirements, and (B) will effect such releases in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.5. (g) Prepayment During Last Month. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.5, Borrower may prepay the Loan without Defeasance and without any prepayment fee on and after December 1, 2010 and the real and personal property subject to the lien or mortgage of the Security Instrument shall be released. 3. SECURITY; SECURITY DOCUMENTS. The indebtedness evidenced by this Note and the obligations created hereby (including without limitation the amounts authorized by Section 4 to be collected by Lender and the Prepayment Consideration when due hereunder) are secured by, among other things, a first mortgage, security interest and lien on certain real and personal property collateral of Borrower, tangible and intangible, as described more particularly in that certain Mortgage and Security Agreement (the "Security Instrument") from Borrower to Lender, dated as of date hereof. The Security Instrument together with this Note and all other documents to or of which Lender is a party or a beneficiary now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guarantying, modifying or otherwise relating to the indebtedness evidenced hereby, and all extensions, renewals and modifications thereof, are collectively referred to herein as the "Security Documents." 8 4. DEFAULT. ------- 4.1. EVENT OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default ("Event of Default") under this Note: (a) if any payment of principal and interest or any other payment required under this Note is not received by Lender on or before five (5) days after the date such payment is due (except that no grace period is provided for the payment of principal and interest due on the Maturity Date or upon acceleration of indebtedness following the occurrence of an Event of Default); or (b) if any default should occur under any of the other Security Documents which is not fully cured following applicable notice or prior to the expiration of any applicable grace or cure period. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, at Lender's option, the outstanding principal balance of this Note, together with all unpaid interest accrued thereon and all other sums due hereunder or under any other of the other Security Documents, shall, without notice or prior demand, immediately become due and payable. 4.2. LATE CHARGES. If any payment is not received by Lender on or before the date on which such payment originally was due (subject to any applicable cure period), then, in addition to any default interest payments due hereunder, Borrower also shall pay to Lender a late charge in an amount equal to five percent (5.0%) of the amount of such overdue payment to defray the expenses incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of the delinquent payment. Such late charge shall be immediately due and payable, without notice or demand therefor. 4.3. DEFAULT INTEREST RATE. If this Note is not paid in full on or before the Maturity Date or the date on which the due date of the indebtedness has been accelerated pursuant to the provisions hereof, the unpaid principal and accrued interest and other amounts then due shall bear interest at a rate per annum ("Default Interest Rate") equal to the lesser of (a) five percent (5.0%) in excess of the Interest Rate or (b) the maximum rate of interest, if any, which may be charged or collected from Borrower under applicable law. In addition, Lender shall have the right, without acceleration of the indebtedness, to collect interest at the Default Interest Rate on any payment due hereunder (including without limitation late charges and fees for legal counsel) which is not received by Lender on or before the date on which such payment originally was due. Interest at the Default Interest Rate shall be immediately due and payable from the due date specified herein and shall accrue until all Events of Default have been fully cured or full payment is received, as applicable. 4.4. INTEREST ON JUDGMENTS. Interest shall accrue on any judgment obtained by Lender in connection with the enforcement or collection of this Note until such judgment amount is paid in full at a rate equal to the greater of (a) the Default Interest Rate or (b) the legal rate applicable to judgments within such jurisdiction; provided, however, that interest shall not accrue at a rate in excess of the maximum rate of interest, if any, which may be charged or collected from Borrower under applicable law. 4.5. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES; ATTORNEY FEES. The remedies of Lender in this Note and in the other Security Documents, or at law or in equity, shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singly, successively or together in Lender's sole discretion and 9 as often as occasion therefor shall arise. If Borrower's obligations under this Note or any of the other Security Documents are enforced by Lender through an attorney-at-law, or any payment due under this Note or the other Security Documents is collected by or through an attorney-at-law or collection agency, Borrower agrees to pay all costs incurred by Lender in connection therewith, including, but not limited to, reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel (whether with respect to a retained firm or Lender's in-house staff) and collection agency costs, whether or not suit be brought provided Borrower was not the prevailing party in the collection of payment(s) due under this Note or enforcement of the provisions of this Note. No provision of this Section 4 shall be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date on which any required payment is due (subject to the applicable grace period, if any), nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default. The payments required under this Section 4 shall be in addition to, and shall in no way limit, any other rights and remedies provided for in this Note or any of the other Security Documents, nor any other remedies provided by law or in equity, and shall be added to the principal evidenced by this Note and deemed secured by the Security Instrument and other Security Documents. 5. LIMITATIONS ON RECOURSE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, the liability of Borrower and of any general partner, principal or member of Borrower to pay the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and for the performance of the other agreements, covenants and obligations contained herein and in the other Security Documents shall be limited as set forth in Article 15 of the Security Instrument. 6. NO USURY. This Note is subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be required or obligated to pay interest (or any other amount agreed to be paid hereunder which shall be deemed to be interest) at a rate which would subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to pay. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest (or any other amount agreed to be paid hereunder shall be deemed to be interest) at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, then the amount to be paid immediately shall be reduced to such maximum rate, and, as required by applicable law, all previous payments in excess of such maximum shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance owing under this Note in the inverse order of maturity (whether or not then due) or, at the option of Lender, be paid over to Borrower and not to the payment of interest. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of this Note until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of said indebtedness does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to this Note for so long as the Note is outstanding. This Section will control all agreements between Borrower and Lender in connection with this Note. 7. GENERAL CONDITIONS. 10 7.1. NO WAIVER BY LENDER. No failure to accelerate the debt evidenced hereby nor failure or delay in exercising any other right or remedy upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, or any acceptance of a partial or past due payment, or indulgences granted from time to time shall be construed (a) as a novation of this Note or as a reinstatement of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, (b) as a waiver or impairment of Lender's right of acceleration or any other right or remedy available to Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or (c) as a waiver of Lender's right thereafter to insist upon strict compliance with the terms of this Note or any of the other Security Documents; and Borrower hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing. No extension of the time for payment of any amount due under this Note or under any of the other Security Documents made by Lender's agreement with any person now or hereafter liable for the payment thereof shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of Borrower under this Note or any such other person, either in whole or in part unless Lender agrees otherwise in writing. 7.2. BORROWER'S WAIVERS.

UNCONDITIONAL PAYMENT. If any payment received by Lender hereunder shall be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other debtor relief law, then the obligation to make such payment shall survive any cancellation or satisfaction of this Note or return thereof to Borrower and shall not be discharged or satisfied with any prior payment thereof or cancellation of this Note, but shall remain a valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, and such payment shall be immediately due and payable upon demand. No release of any security for this Note or any party liable for payment of this Note shall release or affect the liability of Borrower or any other party who may become liable for payment of all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note.
