A credit rating of BBB- from S&P is equivalent to a credit rating of Baa3 from Moody's and vice versa. A credit rating of BBB from S&P is equivalent to a credit rating of Baa2 from Moody's and vice versa. A credit rating of BBB+ from S&P is equivalent to a credit rating of Baa1 by Moody's and vice versa. It is the intention of the parties that if REIT shall only obtain a credit rating from one of the Rating Agencies without seeking a credit rating from the other of the Rating Agencies, the Borrower shall be entitled to the benefit of the Credit Rating Level for such credit rating. If REIT shall have obtained a credit rating from both of the Rating Agencies, the higher of the two ratings shall control, provided that the lower rating is only one level below that of the higher rating. If the lower rating is more than one level below that of the higher credit rating, the operative rating would be deemed to be one rating level lower than the higher of the two ratings. In the event that REIT shall have obtained a credit rating from both of the Rating Agencies and shall thereafter lose such rating (whether as a result of a withdrawal, suspension, election to not obtain a rating, or otherwise) from one of the Rating Agencies, the operative rating would be deemed to be one rating level lower than the remaining rating. In the event that REIT shall have obtained a credit rating from both of the Rating Agencies and shall thereafter lose such rating (whether as a result of withdrawal, suspension, election to not obtain a rating, or otherwise) from both of the Rating Agencies, REIT shall be deemed for

the purposes hereof not to have a credit rating. If at any time either of the Rating Agencies shall no longer perform the functions of a securities rating agency, then the Borrower and the Agent shall promptly negotiate in good faith to agree upon a substitute rating agency or agencies (and to correlate the system of ratings of each substitute rating agency with that of the rating agency being replaced), and pending such amendment, the Credit Rating of the other of the Rating Agencies, if one has been provided, shall continue to apply.

Credit Rating Level. One of the following four pricing levels, as applicable, and provided, further, that, from and after the time that Agent receives written notice that REIT has first obtained an Investment Grade Rating and elected to use such Investment Grade Rating as the basis for the Applicable Margin, during any period that REIT has no Credit Rating Level, Credit Rating Level 4 shall be the applicable Credit Rating Level:

“Credit Rating Level 1” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is greater than or equal to BBB+ by S&P or Baa1 by Moody's;

“Credit Rating Level 2” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is greater than or equal to BBB by S&P or Baa2 by Moody's and Credit Rating Level 1 is not applicable;

“Credit Rating Level 3” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is greater than or equal to BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Moody's and Credit Rating Levels 1 and 2 are not applicable; and

“Credit Rating Level 4” means the Credit Rating Level which would be applicable for so long as the Credit Rating is less than BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Moody's or there is no Credit Rating.

Borrower may borrow under the Term Loan in a single draw or in no more than four (4) draws

in the minimum amount of $25,000,000.00 each within sixty (60) days from the Closing Date. Upon notice by the Borrower to the Agent given in accordance with §2.7, such sums as are requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to the lesser of (i) such Lender's Commitment and (ii) such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing Base Availability; provided, that, in all events no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would arise as a result thereof; and provided, further, that the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested), shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment or cause a violation of the covenants set forth in §9.1, §9.2 or §9.3. The Term Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Lender's Commitment Percentage. Each request for a Term Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions required of Borrower set forth in §10 and §11 have been satisfied on the date of such request. The Agent may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless it receives prior written notice from a Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. No Lender shall have any obligation to make Term Loans to the Borrower in the maximum aggregate principal outstanding balance of more than the principal face amount of its Term Loan Note. Any additional Term Loans made as a result of any increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to §2.11 shall be made on the applicable Increase Date and each Lender which elects to increase its Commitment pursuant to §2.11 severally and not jointly agrees to make a Term Loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to (a) with respect to any existing Lender, the amount by which such Lender's Commitment increases on the applicable Increase Date and (b) with respect to any new Lenders, the amount of such new Lender's Commitment.

(b)    The Term Loans shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (collectively, the “Term Loan Notes”), dated of even date with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in §18.3) and completed with appropriate insertions. One Term Loan Note shall be payable to the order of each Lender in the principal amount equal to such Lender's Commitment or, if less, the outstanding amount of all Loans made by such Lender, plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth below. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes Agent to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Term Loan or the time of receipt of any payment of principal thereof, an appropriate notation on Agent's Record reflecting the making of such Term Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Term Loans set forth on Agent's Record shall be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to each Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on Agent's Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Term Loan Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Term Loan Note when due.

§2.3    [Intentionally Omitted.]

§2.4    [Intentionally Omitted.]

§2.5    [Intentionally Omitted.]

§2.6    Interest on Loans.

(a)    Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the date on which such Base Rate Loan is repaid or converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan at the rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b)    Each LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of each Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate

per annum equal to the sum of LIBOR determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(c)    The Borrower promises to pay interest on each Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto. In the event that any additional interest becomes due and payable for any period with respect to a Loan as a result of the Applicable Margin being determined based on the ratio of Consolidated Total Liabilities to Consolidated Total Asset Value or any change in such ratio, and the interest for such period has previously been paid by the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the Banks the amount of such increase within ten (10) days of demand.

(d)    Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted to Loans of the other Type as provided in §4.1.

§2.7    Requests for Term Loans. Except with respect to the initial Term Loan on the Closing Date, the Borrower shall give to the Agent written notice executed by an Authorized Officer in the form of Exhibit D hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing in the form of Exhibit D hereto) of each Term Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) by 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Base Rate Loans and three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans. Each such notice shall specify with respect to the requested Term Loan the proposed principal amount of such Term Loan, the Type of Term Loan, the initial Interest Period (if applicable) for such Term Loan and the Drawdown Date. Each such notice shall also contain (i) a general statement as to the purpose for which such advance shall be used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of §2.9) and (ii) a certification by an Authorized Officer that the Borrower and Guarantors are and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the making of such Term Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Agent shall notify each of the Lenders thereof. Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Term Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Each Loan Request shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $25,000,000.00; provided, however, that there shall be no more than six (6) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.

    

§2.8    Funds for Loans.

(a)    Not later than 12:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Term Loans, each of the Lenders will make available to the Agent, at the Agent's Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Term Loans which may be disbursed pursuant to §2.1. Upon receipt from each such Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §10 and §11 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Term Loans made available to the Agent by the Lenders, as applicable, as instructed by Borrower not later than 1:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Term Loans. The failure or refusal of any Lender to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Term Loans shall not relieve any other Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of such other Lender's Commitment Percentage of any requested Term Loans.

(b)    Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Drawdown Date that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender's Commitment Percentage of a proposed Loan, Agent may in its discretion assume that such Lender has made such Loan available to Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Agent may, if it chooses, in reliance upon such assumption make such Loan available to the Borrower, and such Lender shall be liable to the Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Agent's demand therefor, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender or the

Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus one percent (1%).

§2.9    Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans solely to (a) pay closing costs in connection with this Agreement and (b) refinance the Existing Credit Facilities, finance acquisitions and development, and for general working capital purposes.

§2.10    [Intentionally Omitted.]

§2.11    Increase in Total Commitment.

(a)    Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this §2.11, the Borrower shall have the option from time to time prior to the Maturity Date to request one or more increases in the Total Commitment to not more than $250,000,000.00 by giving written notice to the Agent (an “Increase Notice”; and the amount of such requested increase is the “Commitment Increase”), provided that any such individual increase must be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000.00 and increments of $5,000,000.00 in excess thereof (or such smaller amounts as the Agent may approve). Upon receipt of any Increase Notice, the Agent shall consult with Arranger and shall notify the Borrower of the amount of facility fees to be paid to any Lenders who provide an additional Commitment in connection with such increase in the Total Commitment (which shall be in addition to the fees to be paid to Agent or either Arranger pursuant to the Agreement Regarding Fees). If the Borrower agrees to pay the facility fees so determined, then the Agent shall send a notice to all Lenders (the “Additional Commitment Request Notice”) informing them of the Borrower's request to increase the Total Commitment and of the facility fees to be paid with respect thereto. Each Lender who desires to provide an additional Commitment upon such terms shall provide Agent with a written commitment letter specifying the amount of the additional Commitment by which it is willing to provide prior to such deadline as may be specified in the Additional Commitment Request Notice. If the requested increase is oversubscribed then the Borrower, the Agent and the Arrangers shall allocate the Commitment Increase among the Lenders who provide such commitment letters on such basis as they shall reasonably agree. If the additional Commitments so provided are not sufficient to provide the full amount of the Commitment Increase requested by the Borrower, then the Agent, Arrangers or the Borrower may, but shall not be obligated to, invite one or more banks or lending institutions (which banks or lending institutions shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent, Arrangers and the Borrower) to become a Lender and provide an additional Commitment. The Agent shall provide all Lenders with a notice setting forth the amount, if any, of the additional Commitment to be provided by each Lender and the revised Commitment Percentages which shall be applicable after the effective date of the Commitment Increase specified therein (the “Increase Date”). In no event shall any Lender be obligated to provide an additional Commitment.

(b)    [Intentionally Omitted.]

(c)    Upon the effective date of each increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.11 the Agent may unilaterally revise Schedule 1.1 and the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent new Notes for each Lender whose Commitment has changed so that the principal amount of such Lender's Note shall equal its Commitment. The Agent shall deliver such replacement Notes to the respective Lenders in exchange for the Notes replaced thereby which shall be promptly surrendered by such Lenders to Borrower. Such new Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes and that they do not constitute a novation, shall be dated as of the Increase Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the replaced Notes. Within five (5) days of issuance of any new Notes pursuant to this §2.11(c), if required

by the Agent, the Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel, addressed to the Lenders and the Agent, relating to the due authorization, execution and delivery of such new Notes and the enforceability thereof, in form and substance substantially similar to the opinion delivered in connection with the first disbursement under this Agreement. The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and promptly returned to the Borrower.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligation of the Agent and the Lenders to increase the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.11 shall be conditioned upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent which must be satisfied prior to the effectiveness of any increase of the Total Commitment:

(i)The Borrower shall pay (A) to the Agent those fees described in and contemplated by the Agreement Regarding Fees with respect to the applicable Commitment Increase, and (B) to the Arranger such facility fees as the Lenders who are providing an additional Commitment may require to increase the aggregate Commitment, which fees shall, when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under any circumstances. The Arrangers shall pay to the Lenders acquiring the increased Commitment certain fees pursuant to their separate agreement; and

(ii)On the date any Increase Notice is given and on the date such increase becomes effective, both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased, there shall exist no Default or Event of Default; and

(iii)The representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the Guarantors in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by or on behalf of the Borrower or the Guarantors in connection therewith or after the date thereof shall have been true and correct in all material respects when made and shall also be true and correct in all material respects on the date of such Increase Notice and on the date the Total Commitment is increased, both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date, and that any representation or warranty that is qualified by any materiality standard shall be required to be true and correct in all respects); and

(iv)The Borrower and the Guarantors shall execute and deliver to Agent and the Lenders such additional documents, instruments, certifications and opinions as the Agent may reasonably require in its sole and absolute discretion, including, without limitation, replacement Notes, and a Compliance Certificate, demonstrating compliance with all covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Documents after giving effect to the increase; and

(v)The Borrower and the Guarantors shall satisfy such other conditions to such increase as Agent may require in its reasonable discretion

§2.12    [Intentionally Omitted.]

§2.13    Defaulting Lenders.

(a)    If for any reason any Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Agent or the Borrower under this Agreement or applicable law, such Defaulting Lender's right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in respect of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of the Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal. If a Lender is a Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies which the Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or otherwise, the Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the

Federal Funds Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. Any amounts received by the Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender's Loans shall be applied as set forth in §2.13(d).

(b)    Any Non-Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire all or a portion of a Defaulting Lender's Commitment. Any Lender desiring to exercise such right shall give written notice thereof to the Agent and the Borrower no sooner than two (2) Business Days and not later than five (5) Business Days after such Defaulting Lender became a Defaulting Lender. If more than one Lender exercises such right, each such Lender shall have the right to acquire an amount of such Defaulting Lender's Commitments in proportion to the Commitments of the other Lenders exercising such right. If after such 5th Business Day, the Lenders have not elected to purchase all of the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, by giving written notice thereof to the Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitments to an eligible assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of §18.1 for the purchase price provided for below. No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an eligible assignee. Upon any such purchase or assignment, and any such demand with respect to which the conditions specified in §18.1 have been satisfied, the Defaulting Lender's interest in the Loans and its rights hereunder (but not its liability in respect thereof or under the Loan Documents or this Agreement to the extent the same relate to the period prior to the effective date of the purchase) shall terminate on the date of purchase, and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest to the purchaser or assignee thereof, including an appropriate Assignment and Acceptance Agreement. The purchase price for the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender shall be equal to the amount of the principal balance of the Loans outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees. Prior to payment of such purchase price to a Defaulting Lender, the Agent shall apply against such purchase price any amounts retained by the Agent pursuant to §2.13(d).

(c)    [Intentionally Omitted.]

(d)    Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to §13), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement and (y) be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Agent or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Agent or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Term Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (ii) such Term Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in §10 and §11, to the extent required by this Agreement, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely

to pay the Term Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis until such time as all Term Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Commitment Percentages, prior to being applied to the payment of any Term Loans of, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this §2.13(d) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto, and to the extent allocated to the repayment of principal of the Loan, shall not be considered outstanding principal under this Agreement.

(e)    [Intentionally Omitted.]

(f)    [Intentionally Omitted.]

(g)    If the Borrower (if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and the Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender.

§3    REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.

§3.1    Stated Maturity. The Borrower promises to pay on the Maturity Date and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the Maturity Date all of the Term Loans outstanding on such date, together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

§3.2    Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time (a) the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans exceeds the Total Commitment or (b) the aggregate outstanding amount of Consolidated Total Unsecured Indebtedness at such time (including the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans) exceeds the Borrowing Base Availability then the Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Lenders, as applicable, for application to the Loans as provided in §3.4, together with any additional amounts payable pursuant to §4.8.

§3.3    Optional Prepayments.

(a)    The Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to prepay the outstanding amount of the Term Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium; provided, that if any prepayment of the outstanding amount of any LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to this §3.3 is made on a date that is not the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, such prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of any amounts due pursuant to §4.8.

(b)    The Borrower shall give the Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) at least three (3) days prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to this §3.3 of LIBOR Rate Loans unless a shorter notice period is agreed to in writing by the Agent, and one (1) Business Day's prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to this §3.3 of Base Rate Loans, in each case specifying the proposed date of prepayment of the Loans and the principal amount to be prepaid (provided that any such notice may be

revoked or modified upon one (1) day's prior notice to the Agent).

 

§3.4    Partial Prepayments. Each partial prepayment of the Loans under §3.3 shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 in excess thereof, shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest on the principal prepaid to the date of payment. Each partial payment under §3.2 and §3.3 shall be applied first to the accrued but unpaid interest and then to the principal of Term Loans. In the absence of instruction by the Borrower, prepayments shall be applied first to the principal of Base Rate Loans, and then to the principal of LIBOR Rate Loans.

§3.5    [Intentionally Omitted.]

§3.6    Effect of Prepayments. Amounts of the Loans prepaid under §3.2 and §3.3 prior to the Maturity Date may not be reborrowed.

§4.    CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

§4.1    Conversion Options.

(a)    The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any of its outstanding Term Loans to a Term Loan of another Type and such Term Loans shall thereafter bear interest as a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan, as applicable; provided that (i) with respect to any such conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least one (1) Business Day's prior written notice of such election, and such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) LIBOR Business Days' prior written notice of such election and the Interest Period requested for such Loan, the principal amount of the Loan so converted shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $500,000.00 in excess thereof and, after giving effect to the making of such Loan, there shall be no more than six (6) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time unless all of the Lenders otherwise consent in writing; and (iii) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. All or any part of the outstanding Term Loans of any Type may be converted as provided herein, provided that no partial conversion shall result in a Base Rate Loan in a principal amount of less than $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 or a LIBOR Rate Loan in a principal amount of less than $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $500,000.00. On the date on which such conversion is being made, each Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be. Each Conversion/Continuation Request relating to the conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrower. The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the applicable LIBOR or Base Rate.

(b)    Any LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Borrower with the terms of §4.1; provided that no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default.

(c)    In the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent of its election hereunder with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, such Loan shall be automatically continued at the end of the applicable Interest Period as a LIBOR Rate Loan for an Interest Period of one month unless such Interest Period shall be greater than the time remaining until the Maturity Date, in which case such Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period.

§4.2    Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to KeyBank, Agent and Arranger for their own account certain fees for services rendered or to be rendered in connection with the Loans as provided pursuant to a fee letter dated February 7, 2012, between the Borrower, REIT, KeyBank, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and the Arranger (the “Agreement Regarding Fees”). All such fees shall be fully earned when paid and nonrefundable under any circumstances.

§4.3    Agent's Fee. The Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the Agent's own account, an annual administration fee as provided in the Agreement Regarding Fees. The Agent's fee shall be payable as provided in the Agreement Regarding Fees.

§4.4    Funds for Payments.

(a)    All payments of principal, interest, facility fees, closing fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Agent, for the respective accounts of the Lenders and the Agent, as the case may be, at the Agent's Head Office, not later than 2:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the day when due, in each case in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds. If not received by 2:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the day when due, the Agent is hereby authorized to charge the accounts of the Borrower with KeyBank, on the dates when the amount thereof shall become due and payable, with the amounts of the principal of and interest on the Loans and all fees, charges, expenses and other amounts owing to the Agent and/or the Lenders under the Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, all payments made to Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and actually received by Agent, shall be deemed received by the Lenders on the date actually received by Agent.

(b)    All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes (other than income or franchise taxes imposed on any Lender and any Excluded FATCA Tax), levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such obligation is imposed upon the Borrower with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower will pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the Borrower. If any such Lender, to the extent it may lawfully do so, fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Agent may withhold from any payments to be made to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents such amounts as are required by the Internal Revenue Code. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify the Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, and costs and expenses (including all reasonable fees and disbursements of any law firm or other external counsel and the allocated cost of internal legal services and all disbursements of internal counsel) of the Agent. The obligation of the Lenders under this section shall survive the termination of the Commitments, repayment of all Obligations and all the resignation or replacement of the Agent. Without limitation of §4.4(b), if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting and document provision requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1741(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by either, such documentation prescribed by applicable

law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower and/or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. The Borrower will deliver promptly to the Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

(c)    Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, if requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower with such duly executed form(s) or statement(s) which may, from time to time, be prescribed by law and, which, pursuant to applicable provisions of (i) an income tax treaty between the United States and the country of residence of such Lender, (ii) the Code, or (iii) any applicable rules or regulations in effect under (i) or (ii) above, indicates the withholding status of such Lender; provided that nothing herein (including without limitation the failure or inability to provide such form or statement) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligations under §4.4(b). In the event that the Borrower shall have delivered the certificates or vouchers described above for any payments made by the Borrower and such Lender receives a refund of any taxes paid by the Borrower pursuant to §4.4(b), such Lender will pay to the Borrower the amount of such refund promptly upon receipt thereof; provided that if at any time thereafter such Lender is required to return such refund, the Borrower shall promptly repay to such Lender the amount of such refund upon receipt from such Lender of a demand therefor.

(d)    The obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders under this Agreement shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or any right which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates may have at any time against the Lenders (other than the defense of payment to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any breach of any agreement between the Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (v) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; and (vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, provided that such other circumstances or happenings shall not have been the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Lenders as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods.

    

§4.5    Computations. All computations of interest on the LIBOR Rate Loans and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. All computations of interest on Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate) shall be based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension. The Outstanding Loans as reflected on the records of the Agent from time to time shall be considered prima facie evidence of such amount absent manifest error.

§4.6    Suspension of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Agent shall reasonably determine that adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period, or the Agent shall reasonably

determine that LIBOR will not accurately and fairly reflect the cost of the Lenders making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders absent manifest error) to the Borrower and the Lenders. In such event (a) any Loan Request with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan and (b) each LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent reasonably determines that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the Lenders.

§4.7    Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority having jurisdiction over a Lender or its LIBOR Lending Office shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Agent and the Borrower and thereupon (a) the commitment of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) the LIBOR Rate Loans then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, before giving such notice, the applicable Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation will void the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender or increase any costs payable by Borrower hereunder.

§4.8    Additional Interest. If any LIBOR Rate Loan or any portion thereof is repaid or is converted to a Base Rate Loan for any reason on a date which is prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan, or if repayment of the Loans has been accelerated as provided in §12.1, the Borrower will pay to the Agent upon demand for the account of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, in addition to any amounts of interest otherwise payable hereunder, the Breakage Costs. The Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following: (i) no Lender has any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of LIBOR as a basis for calculating the rate of interest on a LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) LIBOR is used merely as a reference in determining such rate; and (iii) the Borrower has accepted LIBOR as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating such rate and any Breakage Costs. The Borrower further agrees to pay the Breakage Costs, if any, whether or not a Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

§4.9    Additional Costs, Etc. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any present or future applicable law, which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Agent by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall:

(a)    subject any Lender or the Agent to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Lender's Commitment, or the Loans (other than taxes based upon or measured by the gross receipts, income or profits of such Lender or the Agent or its franchise tax), or

(b)    materially change the basis of taxation (except for changes in taxes on gross receipts, income or profits or its franchise tax) of payments to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

(c)    impose or increase or render applicable any special deposit, reserve (other than the Reserve Percentage), assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not

having the force of law and which are not already reflected in any amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or commitments of an office of any Lender, or

(d)    impose on any Lender or the Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Loans, such Lender's Commitment, or any class of loans or commitments of which any of the Loans or such Lender's Commitment forms a part; and the result of any of the foregoing is:

(i)    to increase the cost to any Lender of making, funding, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans or such Lender's Commitment, or

(ii)    to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to any Lender or the Agent hereunder on account of such Lender's Commitment or any of the Loans, or

(iii)    to require any Lender or the Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Lender or the Agent from the Borrower hereunder,

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, within fifteen (15) days of demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Agent such additional amounts as such Lender or the Agent shall determine in good faith to be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum. Each Lender and the Agent in determining such amounts may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender or the Agent.

§4.10    Capital Adequacy. If after the date hereof any Lender in good faith determines that (a) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof, or (b) compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender's or such holding company's capital as a consequence of such Lender's commitment to make Loans hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or such holding company's then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity's capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender may notify the Borrower thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is determined, upon presentation by such Lender of a statement of the amount setting forth the Lender's calculation thereof. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender. For purposes of §4.9 and §4.10, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, publications, orders, guidelines and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall be deemed to have been adopted and gone into effect after the date hereof regardless of when adopted, enacted or issued.

§4.11    Breakage Costs. The Borrower shall pay all Breakage Costs required to be paid by them pursuant to this Agreement and incurred from time to time by any Lender upon demand within fifteen (15) days from receipt of written notice from Agent, or such earlier date as may be required by this Agreement.

§4.12    Default Interest. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and regardless of whether or not the Agent or the Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans,

all Loans shall bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2.0%) above an amount equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time (the “Default Rate”), until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment), or if any of such amounts shall exceed the maximum rate permitted by law, then at the maximum rate permitted by law.

§4.13    Certificate. A certificate setting forth any amounts payable pursuant to §4.8, §4.9, §4.10, §4.11 or §4.12 and a reasonably detailed explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Lender or the Agent to the Borrower, shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

§4.14    Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, all agreements between or among the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agent, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Lenders exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable to the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to the Lenders shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and to the payment of interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the Obligations (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This Section shall control all agreements between or among the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agent.

§4.15    Certain Provisions Relating to Increased Costs. If a Lender gives notice of the existence of the circumstances set forth in §4.7 or any Lender requests compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more of the provisions of §4.4(b) (as a result of the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes on amounts paid to such Lender under this Agreement), §4.9 or §4.10, then, upon request of the Borrower, such Lender, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts in a manner consistent with such institution's practice in connection with loans like the Loan of such Lender to eliminate, mitigate or reduce amounts that would otherwise be payable by the Borrower under the foregoing provisions, provided that such action would not be otherwise prejudicial to such Lender, including, without limitation, by designating another of such Lender's offices, branches or affiliates; the Borrower agreeing to pay all reasonably incurred costs and expenses incurred by such Lender in connection with any such action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and if any Lender has given notice of the existence of the circumstances set forth in §4.7 or has requested payment or compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more of the provisions of §4.4(b) (as a result of the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes on amounts paid to such Lender under this Agreement), §4.9 or §4.10 and following the request of the Borrower has been unable to take the steps described above to mitigate such amounts (each, an “Affected Lender”), then, within thirty (30) days after such notice or request for payment or compensation, the Borrower shall have the one-time right as to such Affected Lender, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to the Agent and the Affected Lender within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice, to elect to cause the Affected Lender to transfer its Commitment. The Agent shall promptly notify the remaining Lenders that each of such Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire a portion of the Commitment, pro rata based upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Affected Lender (or if any of such Lenders does not elect to purchase its

pro rata share, then to such remaining Lenders in such proportion as approved by the Agent). In the event that the Lenders do not elect to acquire all of the Affected Lender's or Non-Funding Lender's Commitment, then the Agent and Borrower shall endeavor to obtain a new Lender to acquire such remaining Commitment that is reasonably acceptable to Agent and Borrower and is an eligible assignee pursuant to §18.1. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment of the Affected Lender, the Affected Lender's interest in the Obligations and its rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase, and the Affected Lender, shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest. The purchase price for the Affected Lender's Commitment shall equal any and all amounts outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Affected Lender, including principal, prepayment premium or fee, and all accrued and unpaid interest or fees.

§5.    UNSECURED OBLIGATIONS; GUARANTY.

§5.1    Unsecured Obligations. The Lenders have agreed to make the Loans to the Borrower for the account of the Borrower on an unsecured basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligations shall be guaranteed pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty.

§5.2    Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. In the event that the Borrower shall request that certain Real Estate of a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower be included as an Unencumbered Borrowing Base Property, the Borrower shall as a condition thereto, in addition to the requirements of §7.17, cause each such Wholly Owned Subsidiary to execute and deliver to Agent a Joinder Agreement (and if such Subsidiary is the first Subsidiary Guarantor, then such Subsidiary Guarantor, Borrower and REIT shall execute and deliver a Contribution Agreement), and such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder. Each such Subsidiary shall not be restricted by its respective organizational documents and applicable law, from serving as a Guarantor hereunder. The Borrower shall further cause all representations, covenants and agreements in the Loan Documents with respect to the Guarantors to be true and correct with respect to each such Subsidiary or other entity. In connection with the delivery of such Joinder Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent such organizational agreements, resolutions, consents, opinions and other documents and instruments as the Agent may reasonably require.

§5.3    Release of a Subsidiary Guarantor. The Borrower may request in writing that the Agent release, and upon receipt of such request the Agent shall release (subject to the terms hereof), a Subsidiary Guarantor from the Guaranty so long as: (a) no Default or Event of Default shall then be in existence or would occur as a result of such release or the removal of Real Estate referred to in clause (c) below; (b) the Agent shall have received such written request at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the requested date of release; and (c) any Real Estate owned or leased by such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be removed from the Unencumbered Borrowing Base Properties in accordance with §7.17. Delivery by the Borrower to the Agent of any such request for a release shall constitute a representation by the Borrower that the matters set forth in the preceding sentence (both as of the date of the giving of such request and as of the date of the effectiveness of such request) are true and correct with respect to such request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing provisions shall not apply to REIT, which may only be released upon the written approval of Agent and all of the Lenders.

§6.9    Compliance with Other Instruments, Laws, Etc. None of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries is in violation of any provision of its charter or other organizational documents, bylaws, or any agreement or instrument to which it is subject or by which it or any of its properties is bound or any decree, order, judgment, statute, license, rule or regulation, in any of the foregoing cases in a manner that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Borrower, each Guarantor and each ERISA Affiliate has fulfilled its obligation, if any, under the minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, Multiemployer Plan or Guaranteed Pension Plan and is in compliance in all material respects with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, Multiemployer Plan or Guaranteed Pension Plan. Neither the Borrower, any Guarantor nor any ERISA Affiliate has (a) sought a waiver of the minimum funding standard under §412 of the Code in respect of any Employee Benefit Plan, Multiemployer Plan or Guaranteed Pension Plan, (b) failed to make any contribution or payment to any Employee Benefit Plan, Multiemployer Plan or Guaranteed Pension Plan, or made any amendment to any Employee Benefit Plan, Multiemployer Plan or Guaranteed Pension Plan, which has resulted or could result in the imposition of a Lien or the posting of a bond or other security under ERISA or the Code, or (c) incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA other than a liability to the PBGC for premiums under §4007 of ERISA.

by appropriate proceedings which shall suspend the collection thereof with respect to such property, neither such property nor any portion thereof or interest therein would be in any danger of sale, forfeiture or loss by reason of such proceeding and the Borrower, such Guarantor or any such Subsidiary shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP; and provided, further, that forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any lien that may have attached as security therefor, the Borrower, such Guarantor or any such Subsidiary either (i) will provide a bond issued by a surety reasonably acceptable to the Agent and sufficient to stay all such proceedings or (ii) if no such bond is provided, will pay each such tax, assessment, charge or levy.

§7.9    Inspection of Properties and Books. The Borrower and the Guarantors will, and will cause their respective Subsidiaries to, permit the Agent and the Lenders, at the Borrower's expense and upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Borrower, the Guarantors' or any of their respective Subsidiaries (subject to the rights of tenants under their Leases), to examine the books of account of the Borrower, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries (and to make copies thereof and extracts therefrom) and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Borrower, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries with, and to be advised as to the same by, their respective officers, partners or members, all at such reasonable times and intervals as the Agent or any Lender may reasonably request, provided that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall not be required to pay for such visits and inspections. The Lenders shall use good faith efforts to coordinate such visits and inspections so as to minimize the interference with and disruption to the normal business operations of the Borrower, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries.

§7.10    Compliance with Laws, Contracts, Licenses, and Permits.

If any authorization, consent, approval, permit or license from any officer, agency or instrumentality of any government shall become necessary or required in order that the Borrower, the Guarantors or their respective Subsidiaries may fulfill any of its obligations hereunder, the Borrower, the Guarantors or such Subsidiary will immediately take or cause to be taken all steps necessary to obtain such authorization, consent, approval, permit or license and furnish the Agent and the Lenders with evidence thereof.

§7.11    Further Assurances.

§7.12    Limiting Agreements.

(a)    Neither Borrower, the Guarantors nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall enter into, any agreement, instrument or transaction which has or may have the effect of prohibiting or limiting Borrower's, the Guarantors' or any of their respective Subsidiaries' ability to pledge to Agent any Unencumbered Borrowing Base Properties as security for the Obligations. Borrower shall take, and shall cause the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries to take, such actions as are necessary to preserve the right and ability of Borrower, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries to pledge such assets as security

for the Obligations without any such pledge after the date hereof causing or permitting the acceleration (after the giving of notice or the passage of time, or otherwise) of any other Indebtedness of Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries, provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit Borrower's, Guarantors' or any of their respective Subsidiaries' use of Unencumbered Borrowing Base Properties as a borrowing base for other Unsecured Indebtedness.

(b)    Borrower shall, upon demand, provide to the Agent such evidence as the Agent may reasonably require to evidence compliance with this §7.12, which evidence shall include, without limitation, copies of any agreements or instruments which would in any way restrict or limit the Borrower's, any Guarantor's or any Subsidiary's ability to pledge Unencumbered Borrowing Base Properties as security for Indebtedness, or which provide for the occurrence of a default (after the giving of notice or the passage of time, or otherwise) if Unencumbered Borrowing Base Properties are pledged in the future as security for Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Guarantor.

§7.13    Ownership of Real Estate. Without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, all Real Estate and all interests (whether direct or indirect) of the Borrower or REIT in any real estate acquired or leased after the date hereof shall be owned or leased directly by the REIT, Borrower or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower or REIT; provided, however that the Borrower and REIT shall be permitted to own or lease interests in Real Estate through non-Wholly Owned Subsidiaries and Unconsolidated Entities as permitted by §8.3 and may dispose of such interests as permitted by §8.8.

    

§7.14    Business Operations. The Borrower, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries shall operate their respective businesses in substantially the same manner and in substantially the same fields and lines of business as such business is now conducted and in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents. The Borrower and the Guarantors will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, engage in any line of business other than the ownership, operation, management and development of multifamily properties or businesses incidental thereto (including ancillary attached retail).

§7.15    Distributions of Income to Borrower. The Borrower shall cause all of its Subsidiaries that are not Subsidiary Guarantors (subject to the terms of any loan documents under which such Subsidiary is the borrower) to promptly distribute to the Borrower (but not less frequently than once each fiscal quarter, unless otherwise approved by the Agent), whether in the form of dividends, distributions or otherwise, all profits, proceeds or other income relating to or arising from its Subsidiaries' use, operation, financing, refinancing, sale or other disposition of their respective assets and properties after (a) the payment by each Subsidiary of its debt service, operating expenses, capital improvements and leasing commissions for such quarter and (b) the establishment of reasonable reserves for the payment of operating expenses not paid on at least a quarterly basis and capital improvements to be made to such Subsidiary's assets and properties approved by such Subsidiary in the course of its business consistent with its past practices. Neither the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries shall enter into any agreement that limits the ability of any Subsidiary to make a Dividend or distribution payment to the Borrower or any Guarantor or to otherwise transfer any property to the Borrower or any Guarantor, provided, however, that this sentence shall not prohibit any negative pledge incurred or provided in favor of any holder of Indebtedness permitted under §8.1(f) solely to the extent any such negative pledge relates to the property financed by or the subject of such Indebtedness.

§7.16    Plan Assets. The Borrower will do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to ensure that none of the Unencumbered Borrowing Base Properties will be deemed to be Plan Assets at any time.

Additionally, at any time that the Agent or the Required Lenders shall have reasonable grounds to believe that a Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Substances which any Person may be legally obligated to contain, correct or otherwise remediate or which otherwise may expose such Person to liability may have occurred, relating to any Unencumbered Borrowing Base Property, or that any of the Unencumbered Borrowing Base Property is not in compliance with Environmental Laws to the extent required by the Loan Documents, the Borrower shall promptly upon the request of Agent obtain and deliver to Agent such environmental assessments of such Unencumbered Borrowing Base Property prepared by an environmental consultant reasonably acceptable to Agent as may be necessary or advisable for the purpose of evaluating or confirming (i) whether any Hazardous Substances are present in the soil or water at or adjacent to such Unencumbered Borrowing Base Property and (ii) whether the use and operation of such Unencumbered Borrowing Base Property comply with all Environmental Laws to the extent required by the Loan Documents. Environmental assessments may include detailed visual inspections of such Unencumbered Borrowing Base Property including, without limitation, any and all storage areas, storage tanks, drains, dry wells and leaching areas, and the taking of soil samples, as well as such other investigations or analyses as are reasonably necessary or appropriate for a complete determination of the compliance of such Unencumbered Borrowing Base Property and the use and operation thereof with all applicable Environmental Laws.

§8.7    Distributions.

(a)    The Borrower shall not pay any Distribution to the partners, members or other owners of the Borrower, and REIT shall not pay any Distribution to its partners, members or other owners of REIT, if such Distribution by the Borrower or REIT to the extent that the amount of such Distributions paid in any fiscal quarter, when added to the amount of all other Distributions paid in the same fiscal quarter and the preceding three (3) fiscal quarters, exceeds ninety-five percent (95%) of such Person's Funds from Operations

for such period; provided that the limitations contained in this §8.7(a) shall not preclude the Borrower from making Distributions in an amount equal to the minimum distributions required under the Code to maintain the REIT Status of REIT, as evidenced by a certification of the chief financial officer or treasurer of REIT or another senior financial officer of the REIT reasonably acceptable to the Agent containing calculations in detail reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent.

(b)    In the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i) the Borrower and REIT shall not pay any Distribution to their respective partners, members or other owners, other than, Distributions by the Borrower to REIT and by REIT in an amount equal to the minimum distributions required under the Code to maintain REIT Status of REIT, as evidenced by a certification of the chief financial officer or treasurer of REIT or another senior financial officer of the REIT reasonably acceptable to Agent containing calculations in detail reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent.

(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time when an Event of Default under §12.1(a), (b), (g), (h) or (i) shall have occurred or the maturity of the Obligations has been accelerated, neither the Borrower nor REIT shall make any Distributions whatsoever, directly or indirectly.

§8.8    Asset Sales. The Borrower and the Guarantors will not, and will not permit their respective Subsidiaries to, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any material asset other than pursuant to a bona fide arm's length transaction.

(o)    any Change of Control shall occur; or

(p)    an Event of Default under any of the other Loan Documents shall occur;

then, and in any such event, the Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice in writing to the Borrower declare all amounts owing with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents to be, and they shall thereupon forthwith become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; provided that in the event of any Event of Default specified in §12.1(g), §12.1(h) or §12.1(i), all such amounts shall become immediately due and payable automatically and without any requirement of presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind from any of the Lenders or the Agent.

§12.2    Certain Cure Periods; Limitation of Cure Periods. Notwithstanding anything contained in §12.1 to the contrary, (i) no Event of Default shall exist hereunder upon the occurrence of any failure described in §12.1(b) in the event that the Borrower cures such Default within five (5) Business Days after the date such payment is due, provided, however, that no such cure period shall apply to any payments due upon the maturity of the Notes, and (ii) no Event of Default shall exist hereunder upon the occurrence of any failure described in §12.1(d) in the event that with respect to a Default under §7.4(c) the Borrower cures such Default within ten (10) days of the date the deliveries under §7.4(c) are due, or with respect to the other Defaults covered by §12.1(d), in the event that the Borrower cures such Default within thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice of such default, provided that the provisions of this clause (ii) shall not pertain to defaults consisting of a failure to comply with §7.12, §7.14, §7.17, §8.1, §8.2, §8.3, §8.4, §8.5, §8.7, §8.8, §8.9, §8.10, §8.12, or to any Default excluded from any provision of cure of defaults contained in any other of the Loan Documents.

§12.3    Termination of Commitments. If any one or more Events of Default specified in §12.1(g), §12.1(h) or §12.1(i) shall occur, then immediately and without any action on the part of the Agent or any Lender any unused portion of the credit hereunder shall terminate and the Lenders shall be relieved of all obligations to make Loans to the Borrower. If any other Event of Default shall have occurred, the Agent may, and upon the election of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower terminate the obligation to make Loans to the Borrower. No termination under this §12.3 shall relieve the Borrower or the Guarantors of their obligations to the Lenders arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

§12.4    Remedies. In case any one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans pursuant to §12.1, the Agent on behalf of the Lenders may, and upon the direction of the Required Lenders shall, proceed to protect and enforce their rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Notes and/or any of the other Loan Documents by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, including to the full extent permitted by applicable law the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the obtaining of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if any amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, the enforcement of the payment thereof. No remedy herein conferred upon the Agent or the holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement providing that the Loans may be evidenced by multiple Notes in favor of the Lenders, the Lenders acknowledge and agree that only the Agent may exercise any remedies arising by reason of a Default or Event of Default. If the Borrower or any Guarantor fails to perform any agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents beyond any applicable period for notice and cure, Agent may itself perform, or cause to be performed, any agreement or covenant of such Person contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which such Person shall fail to perform, and the out-of-pocket costs of such performance, together with any reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred (including attorneys' fees incurred in any appeal) by Agent in connection therewith, shall be payable by the Borrower and/or the Guarantors upon demand and shall constitute a part of the Obligations and shall if not paid within five (5) days after demand bear interest at the Default Rate. In the event that all or any portion of the Obligations is collected by or through an attorney-at-law, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall pay all costs of collection including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees.

§12.5    Distribution of Proceeds.

(a)    First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of the Agent for or in respect of, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been paid, incurred or sustained by the Agent in connection with the collection of such monies by the Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in support of any provision of adequate indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of the Agent or the Lenders to such monies;

(b)    Second, to all other Obligations (including any interest, expenses or other obligations incurred after the commencement of a bankruptcy) in such order or preference as the Required Lenders shall determine; provided, that (i) distributions in respect of such other Obligations shall include, on a pari passu basis, any Agent's fee payable pursuant to §4.3; (ii) in the event that any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, payments to such Lender shall be governed by §2.13; and (iii) except as otherwise provided in clause (ii), Obligations owing to the Lenders with respect to each type of Obligation such as interest, principal, fees and expenses shall be made among the Lenders pro rata; and provided, further that the Required Lenders may in their discretion make proper allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and payable; and

(c)    Third, the excess, if any, shall be returned to the Borrower or to such other Persons as are entitled thereto.

§12.6    [Intentionally Omitted.]

§13.    SETOFF.

Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral, during the continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits (general or specific, time or demand, provisional or final, regardless of currency, maturity, or the branch where such deposits are held) or other sums credited by or due from any Lender to the Borrower or the Guarantors and any securities or other property of the Borrower or the Guarantors in the possession of such Lender may, without notice to the Borrower or any Guarantor (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower and the Guarantors) but with the prior written approval of Agent, be applied to or set off against the payment of Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of the Borrower or the Guarantors to such Lender, Agent will promptly provide Borrower with notice of any such set off of which Agent has received written notice. Each of the Lenders agrees with each other Lender that if such Lender shall receive from the Borrower or a Guarantor, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note or Notes held by such Lender any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all of the Lenders with respect to the Notes held by all of the Lenders, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving in respect of the Notes held by it its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. In the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

§14.     THE AGENT.

§14.1    Authorization. The Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents delegated to the Agent, together with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent. The obligations of the Agent hereunder are primarily administrative in nature, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent as a trustee for any Lender or to create an agency or fiduciary relationship. Agent shall act as the contractual representative of the Lenders hereunder, and notwithstanding the use of the term “Agent”, it is understood and agreed that Agent shall not have any fiduciary duties or responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and is acting as an independent contractor, the duties and responsibilities of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower and any other Person shall be entitled to conclusively rely on a statement from the Agent that it has the authority to act for and bind the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

§14.2    Employees and Agents. The Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.

§14.3    No Liability. Neither the Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent, or employee thereof, shall be liable for (a) any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, shall be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods or (b) any action taken or not taken by Agent with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or, where required hereunder, all of the affected Lenders). The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to the Loan Documents and describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.

§14.4    No Representations. The Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein, or any agreement, instrument or certificate delivered in connection therewith or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by the Borrower, the Guarantors or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. The Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or

implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the creditworthiness or financial condition of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or the value of any collateral or any other assets of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, based upon such information and documents as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent's Special Counsel has only represented Agent and KeyBank in connection with the Loan Documents and the only attorney client relationship or duty of care is between Agent's Special Counsel and Agent or KeyBank. Each Lender has been independently represented by separate counsel on all matters regarding the Loan Documents.

§14.5    Payments.

(a)    A payment by the Borrower or the Guarantors to the Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender. The Agent agrees to distribute to each Lender not later than one (1) Business Day after the Agent's receipt of good funds, determined in accordance with the Agent's customary practices, such Lender's pro rata share of payments received by the Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, each payment by the Borrower hereunder shall be applied in accordance with §2.13(d).

(b)    If in the opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making such distribution until its right to make such distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

§14.6    Holders of Notes. Subject to the terms of §18, the Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.

§14.7    Indemnity. The Lenders ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower as required by §15), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent's actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent's willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods. The agreements in this §14.7 shall survive the payment of all amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

§14.8    Agent as Lender. In its individual capacity, KeyBank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it not also the Agent.

§14.9    Resignation; Removal. The Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) calendar days' prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Required Lenders (excluding for the purposes hereof the Commitment of the Lender acting as Agent) may remove the Agent in the event of (a) a material breach by Agent in the performance of its duties hereunder which is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to the Agent or (b) Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders, subject to the terms of §18.1, shall have the right to appoint as a successor Agent, any Lender or any bank whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A2” or its equivalent by Moody's or not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be any Lender or any financial institution whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A2” or its equivalent by Moody's or not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder as Agent. After any retiring Agent's resignation or its removal, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent. Upon any change in the Agent under this Agreement, the resigning or removed Agent shall execute such assignments of and amendments to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to substitute the successor Agent for the resigning or removed Agent.

§14.10    Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent may and, if (a) so requested by the Required Lenders and (b) the Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, shall proceed to exercise all or any legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Agent reasonably determines payment is in the best interest of all the Lenders, Agent may without the approval of the Lenders pay taxes and insurance premiums and spend money for maintenance, repairs or other expenses which may be necessary to be incurred, and Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of such action. Each Lender shall, within thirty (30) days of request therefor, pay to the Agent its Commitment Percentage of the reasonable costs incurred by the Agent in taking any such actions hereunder to the extent that such costs shall not be promptly reimbursed to the Agent by the Borrower within such period. The Required Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such exercise, the Lenders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent's willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent's compliance with such direction to be unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction.

§14.11    Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In the event a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced by or against Borrower or any Guarantor, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to file and pursue a joint proof claim on behalf of all Lenders. Any votes with respect to such claims or otherwise with respect to such proceedings shall be subject to the vote of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as required by this Agreement. Each Lender irrevocably waives its right to file or pursue a separate proof of claim in any such proceedings unless Agent fails to file such claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Lenders requesting that Agent file such proof of claim.

§14.12    Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by an Authorized Officer. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower and/or the Guarantors), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

§14.13    Approvals. If consent of the Required Lenders is required for some action under this Agreement, or except as otherwise provided herein an approval of the Required Lenders is required or permitted under this Agreement, each Lender agrees to give the Agent, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the request for action together with all reasonably requested information related thereto (or such lesser period of time required by the terms of the Loan Documents), notice in writing of approval or disapproval (collectively “Directions”) in respect of any action requested or proposed in writing pursuant to the terms hereof. To the extent that any Lender does not approve any recommendation of Agent, such Lender shall in such notice to Agent describe the actions that would be acceptable to such Lender. If consent is required for the requested action, any Lender's failure to respond to a request for Directions within the required time period shall be deemed to constitute a Direction to take such requested action. In the event that any recommendation is not approved by the requisite number of Lenders and a subsequent approval on the same subject matter is requested by Agent, then for the purposes of this paragraph each Lender shall be required to respond to a request for Directions within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such request. Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to assume that any officer of the other Lenders delivering any notice, consent, certificate or other writing is authorized to give such notice, consent, certificate or other writing unless Agent and such other Lenders have otherwise been notified in writing. The provisions of this §14.13 shall not apply to any matter requiring approval of all Lenders or all affected Lenders.

§14.14    Borrower Not Beneficiary. Except for the provisions of §14.9 relating to the appointment of a successor Agent, the provisions of this §14 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, may not be enforced by the Borrower, and except for the provisions of §14.9, may be modified or waived without the approval or consent of the Borrower.

If, and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors under this §16 are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower and the Guarantors hereby agree to make the maximum contribution to the payment in satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. The provisions of this §16 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder.

§17.    SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein, in the Notes, in any of the other Loan Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Agent, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by any of them, and shall survive the making by the Lenders of any of the Loans, as herein contemplated, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any amount due under this Agreement or the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents remains outstanding or any Lender has any obligation to make any Loans.

§18.    ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION.

§18.1    Conditions to Assignment by Lenders. Except as provided herein, each Lender may assign to one or more banks or other entities all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that (a) the Agent, and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower shall have each given its prior written consent to such assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that such consent shall not be required for any assignment to another Lender, to a lender or an Affiliate of a Lender which is and remains controlled by or is under common control with the assigning Lender, to a Subsidiary which is and remains wholly-owned by such Lender, or to an Approved Fund), provided further that the Borrower will be deemed to have consented unless it provides notice to the Agent and the assigning Lender of its disapproval within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such request, (b) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Commitment in the event an interest in the Loans is assigned, (c) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined) an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in the form of Exhibit I annexed hereto, together with any Notes subject to such assignment, (d) in no event shall any assignment be to any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by, the Borrower or any Guarantor or be a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, (e) if the Total Commitment is not fully advanced, such assignee of a portion of the Loans shall have a net worth or unfunded commitment

as of the date of such assignment of not less than $100,000,000.00 (unless otherwise approved by Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower) and (f) such assignee shall acquire an interest in the Loans of not less than $5,000,000.00 and integral multiples of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof (or if less, the remaining Loans of the assignor), unless waived by the Agent, and so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower. Upon execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and all other Loan Documents executed by the Lenders and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, (ii) the assigning Lender shall, upon payment to the Agent of the registration fee referred to in §18.2, be released from its obligations under this Agreement arising after the effective date of such assignment with respect to the assigned portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) the Agent may unilaterally amend Schedule 1.1 to reflect such assignment. In connection with each assignment, the assignee shall represent and warrant to the Agent, the assignor and each other Lender as to whether such assignee is controlling, controlled by, under common control with or is not otherwise free from influence or control by, the Borrower and the Guarantors and whether such assignee is a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. Furthermore, in connection with the syndication of the Loan by Agent and Arranger, the Borrower agree to assist Agent and Arranger actively in achieving a timely syndication that is reasonably satisfactory to Agent and each Arranger, such assistance to include, among other things, (i) direct contact during the syndication between the Borrower's senior officers, representatives and advisors, on the one hand, and prospective Lenders, on the other hand at such times and places as Agent or either Arranger may reasonably request, (ii) providing to Agent and each Arranger all financial and other information with respect to the Borrower and the transactions contemplated hereunder that Agent or either Arranger may reasonably request, including but not limited to financial projections relating to the foregoing, and (iii) assistance in the preparation of a confidential information memorandum and other marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication.

§18.2    Register. The Agent shall maintain on behalf of the Borrower a copy of each assignment delivered to it and a register or similar list (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment Percentages of and principal amount of the Loans owing to the Lenders from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon each such recordation, the assigning Lender agrees to pay to the Agent a registration fee in the sum of $3,500.00.

§18.3    New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed by the

parties to such assignment, together with each Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall record the information contained therein in the Register. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice of such assignment from Agent, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Agent, in exchange for each surrendered Note, a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the amount assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and, if the assigning Lender has retained some portion of its obligations hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the amount retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes. The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.

§18.4    Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Lenders or other entities in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (a) any such sale or participation shall not affect the rights and duties of the selling Lender hereunder, (b) such participation shall not entitle such participant to any rights or privileges under this Agreement or any Loan Documents, including without limitation, rights granted to the Lenders under §4.8, §4.9 and §4.10, (c) such participation shall not entitle the participant to the right to approve waivers, amendments or modifications, (d) such participant shall have no direct rights against the Borrower or the Guarantors, (e) such sale is effected in accordance with all applicable laws, and (f) such participant shall not be a Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors and shall not be a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender; provided, however, such Lender may agree with the participant that it will not, without the consent of the participant, agree to (i) increase, or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination of, such Lender's Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (v) release Borrower or any Guarantor (except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement).

§18.5    Pledge by Lender. Any Lender may at any time pledge all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Note) to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized under §4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. §341 or to such other Person as the Agent may approve to secure obligations of such lenders. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Lender from its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

§18.6    No Assignment by the Borrower or the Guarantors. Neither the Borrower nor the Guarantors shall assign or transfer any of their rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders.

§18.7    Disclosure. The Borrower and the Guarantors each agree to promptly cooperate with any Lender in connection with any proposed assignment or participation of all or any portion of its Commitment. The Borrower and the Guarantors each agree that in addition to disclosures made in accordance with standard banking practices any Lender may disclose information obtained by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement to assignees or participants and potential assignees or participants hereunder. Each Lender agrees for itself that it shall use reasonable efforts to hold confidential all non-public information obtained from the Borrower or the Guarantors that has been identified in writing as confidential by any of them, and shall use reasonable efforts to not disclose such information to any other Person, it being understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender may make (a) disclosures to its participants (provided such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7), (b) disclosures to its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates,

accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors of such Lender (provided that such Persons who are not employees of such Lender are advised of the provision of this §18.7), (c) disclosures customarily provided or reasonably required by any potential or actual bona fide assignee, transferee or participant or their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors in connection with a potential or actual assignment or transfer by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein (provided such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7), (d) disclosures to bank regulatory authorities or self-regulatory bodies with jurisdiction over such Lender, or (e) disclosures required or requested by any other governmental authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law, rule, regulation or court order, each Lender shall notify the Borrower in writing of any request by any governmental authority or representative thereof prior to disclosure (other than any such request in connection with any examination of such Lender by such government authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information. In addition, each Lender may make disclosure of such information to any contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty's professional advisors (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisors agree to be bound by the provisions of this §18.7). Non-public information shall not include any information which is or subsequently becomes publicly available other than as a result of a disclosure of such information by a Lender, or prior to the delivery to such Lender is within the possession of such Lender if such information is not known by such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with or other obligations of secrecy to the Borrower or the Guarantors, or is disclosed with the prior approval of the Borrower or the Guarantors. Nothing herein shall prohibit the disclosure of non-public information to the extent necessary to enforce the Loan Documents.

§18.8    Amendments to Loan Documents. Upon any such assignment or participation, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall, upon the request of the Agent, enter into such documents as may be reasonably required by the Agent to modify the Loan Documents to reflect such assignment or participation; provided, however, no documents or modifications shall increase or otherwise affect the Borrower's or any Guarantor's liabilities hereunder or under any Loan Document.

§18.9    Mandatory Assignment. In the event the Borrower requests that certain amendments, modifications or waivers be made to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which request is approved by Agent but is not approved by one or more of the Lenders (any such non-consenting Lender shall hereafter be referred to as the “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, within thirty (30) Business Days after the Borrower's receipt of notice of such disapproval by such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower shall have the right as to such Non-Consenting Lender, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to the Agent and the Non-Consenting Lender within thirty (30) Business Days of receipt of such notice, to elect to cause the Non-Consenting Lender to transfer its Commitment. The Agent shall promptly notify the remaining Lenders that each of such Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire a portion of the Commitment, pro rata based upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Non-Consenting Lender (or if any of such Lenders does not elect to purchase its pro rata share, then to such remaining Lenders in such proportion as approved by the Agent). In the event that the Lenders do not elect to acquire all of the Non-Consenting Lender's Commitment, then the Agent shall endeavor to find a new Lender or Lenders to acquire such remaining Commitment. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender, the Non-Consenting Lender's interests in the Obligations and its rights and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase, and the Non-Consenting Lender shall promptly execute and deliver any and all documents reasonably requested by Agent to surrender and transfer such interest, including, without limitation, an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I and such Non-Consenting Lender's original Note. The purchase price for the Non-Consenting Lender's Commitment shall equal any and all amounts outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Non-Consenting Lender, including principal and all accrued and unpaid interest or fees, plus any

applicable amounts payable pursuant to §4.8 which would be owed to such Non-Consenting Lender if the Loans were to be repaid in full on the date of such purchase of the Non-Consenting Lender's Commitment (provided that the Borrower may pay to such Non-Consenting Lender any interest, fees or other amounts (other than principal) owing to such Non-Consenting Lender).

§18.10    Titled Agents. The Titled Agents shall not have any additional rights or obligations under the Loan Documents, except for those rights, if any, as a Lender.

§19.    NOTICES.

Each notice, demand, election or request provided for or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement (hereinafter in this §19 referred to as “Notice”), must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly given or served by personal delivery or by sending same by overnight courier or by depositing same in the United States Mail, postpaid and registered or certified, return receipt requested, or as expressly permitted herein, by telegraph, telecopy, telefax or telex, and addressed as follows:

Rejection or other refusal to accept or the inability to deliver because of changed address for which no notice was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the Notice sent. By giving at least five (5) days' prior Notice thereof, the Borrower, a Lender or Agent shall have the right from time to time and at any time during the term of this Agreement to change their respective addresses and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other address within the United States of America.

§20.    RELATIONSHIP.

Neither the Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or fiduciary duty to the Borrower, the Guarantors or their respective Subsidiaries arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder, and the relationship between each Lender and Agent, and the Borrower is solely that of a lender and borrower, and nothing contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents shall in any manner be construed as making the parties hereto partners, joint venturers or any other relationship other than lender and borrower.

The Agent, the Lenders and their affiliates may accept deposits from, extend credit to, invest in, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Borrower, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries or any of their

Affiliates regardless of the capacity of the Agent or the Lender hereunder. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, KeyBank or its Affiliates may receive information regarding such Persons (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

§27.    CONSENTS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower or the Guarantors of any terms of this Agreement or such other instrument or the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the following may occur without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby: (a) a reduction in the rate of interest on the Notes (other than a reduction or waiver of default interest); (b) an increase in the amount of the Commitments of the Lenders (except as provided in §2.11 and §18.1); (c) a forgiveness, reduction or waiver of the principal of any unpaid Loan or any interest thereon (other than interest at the Default Rate) or fee payable under the Loan Documents; (d) a change in the amount of any fee payable to a Lender hereunder; (e) the postponement of any date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on the Loan; (f) a change in the manner of distribution of any payments to the Lenders or the Agent; (g) the release of the Borrower or any Guarantor except as otherwise provided in this Agreement; (h) an amendment of the definition of Required Lenders or of any requirement for consent by all of the Lenders; (i) any modification to require a Lender to fund a pro rata share of a request for an advance of the Loan made by the Borrower other than based on its Commitment Percentage; (j) an amendment to this §27; (k) a waiver of any Default or Event of Default under §12.1(a) or §12.1(b); or (l) an amendment of any provision of this Agreement or the Loan Documents which requires the approval of all of the Lenders or the Required Lenders to require a lesser number of Lenders to approve such action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders) except that the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender. The provisions of §14 may not be amended without the written consent of the Agent. The Borrower and the Guarantors each agree to enter into such modifications or amendments of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as reasonably may be requested by KeyBank in connection with the syndication of the Loan, provided that no such amendment or modification materially affects or increases any of the obligations of the Borrower or the Guarantors hereunder. No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon any of the Borrower or the Guarantors shall entitle the Borrower or the Guarantors to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

§28.    SEVERABILITY.

The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

§29.    TIME OF THE ESSENCE.

Time is of the essence with respect to each and every covenant, agreement and obligation of the Borrower and the Guarantors under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

§30.    NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS.

§31.    REPLACEMENT NOTES.

Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the applicable Note, the Borrower will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note, identical in form and substance to the applicable Note and dated as of the date of the applicable Note and upon such execution and delivery all references in the Loan Documents to such Note shall be deemed to refer to such replacement Note.

§32.    NO THIRD PARTIES BENEFITED.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders, the Agent and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. All conditions to the performance of the obligations of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, including the obligation to make Loans, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that the Agent and the Lenders will refuse to make Loans in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by the Agent and the Lenders at any time if in their sole discretion they deem it desirable to do so. In particular, the Agent and the Lenders make no representations and assume no obligations as to third parties concerning the quality of the construction by the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries of any development or the absence therefrom of defects.

§33.    PATRIOT ACT.

Each Lender and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower and the Guarantors that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the Guarantors, which information includes names and addresses and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and the Guarantors in accordance with the Patriot Act.

§34.    JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY.

Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors covenants and agrees that each and every covenant and obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which each is a party shall be the joint and several obligations of the Borrower and each Guarantor.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned have caused this Agreement to be executed under seal by its duly authorized representatives as of the date first set forth above.
