(c)                                  Borrower shall have paid to Lender, concurrently with the closing of such transfer, (i) a non-refundable assumption fee in an amount equal to one percent (1.0%) of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and (ii) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lender in connection with the transfer;

(d)                                 (i) Transferee shall have assumed and agreed to pay the Debt as and when due subject to the provisions of Article 15 hereof and, prior to or concurrently with the closing of such transfer, Transferee and its constituent partners, members or shareholders as Lender may require, shall have executed, without any cost or expense to Lender, such documents and agreements as Lender shall reasonably require to evidence and effectuate said assumption and (ii) if required by Lender, a Person affiliated with Transferee and acceptable to Lender shall have

37

assumed the obligations of Borrower Principal under the Loan Documents with respect to all acts and events occurring or arising after the transfer of the Property pursuant to this Section 7.5;

(e)                                  Borrower and Transferee, without any cost to Lender, shall furnish any information requested by Lender for the preparation of, and shall authorize Lender to file, new financing statements and financing statement amendments and other documents to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and shall execute any additional documents reasonably requested by Lender;

(f)                                    Borrower shall have delivered to Lender, without any cost or expense to Lender, such endorsements to Lender’s Title Insurance Policy insuring that fee simple or leasehold title to the Property, as applicable, is vested in Transferee (subject to Permitted Encumbrances), hazard insurance endorsements or certificates and other similar materials as Lender may deem necessary at the time of the transfer, all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender;

(g)                                 Transferee shall have furnished to Lender, if Transferee is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, all appropriate papers evidencing Transferee’s organization and good standing, and the qualification of the signers to execute the assumption of the Debt, which papers shall include certified copies of all documents relating to the organization and formation of Transferee and of the entities, if any, which are partners or members of Transferee. Transferee and such constituent partners, members or shareholders of Transferee (as the case may be), as Lender shall require, shall comply with the covenants set forth in Article 6 hereof;

(h)                                 Transferee shall assume the obligations of Borrower under any Management Agreement or provide a new management agreement with a new manager which meets with the requirements of Section 5.14 hereof and assign to Lender as additional security such new management agreement;

(i)                                     Transferee shall furnish an opinion of counsel satisfactory to Lender and its counsel (A) that Transferee’s formation documents provide for the matters described in subparagraph (g) above, (B) that the assumption of the Debt has been duly authorized, executed and delivered, and that the Note, the Mortgage, this Agreement, the assumption agreement and the other Loan Documents are valid, binding and enforceable against Transferee in accordance with their terms, (C) that Transferee and any entity which is a controlling stockholder, member or general partner of Transferee, have been duly organized, and are in existence and good standing, and (E) with respect to such other matters as Lender may reasonably request;

(j)                                     if required by Lender, Lender shall have received confirmation in writing from the Rating Agencies that rate the Securities to the effect that the transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any rating initially assigned or to be assigned to the Securities;

(k)                                  Borrower’s obligations under the contract of sale pursuant to which the transfer is proposed to occur shall expressly be subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Section 7.5; and

38

(l)                                     Transferee shall, prior to such transfer, deliver a substantive non-consolidation opinion to Lender, which opinion shall be in form, scope and substance acceptable in all respects to Lender and the Rating Agencies.

A consent by Lender with respect to a transfer of the Property in its entirety to, and the related assumption of the Loan by, a Transferee pursuant to this Section 7.5 shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right of Lender to consent to any subsequent Sale or Pledge of the Property. Upon the transfer of the Property pursuant to this Section 7.5, Borrower and Borrower Principal shall be relieved of all liability under the Loan Documents for acts, events, conditions, or circumstances occurring or arising after the date of such transfer, except to the extent that such acts, events, conditions, or circumstances are the proximate result of acts, events, conditions, or circumstances that existed prior to the date of such transfer, whether or not discovered prior or subsequent to the date of such transfer.

Section 7.6.                  Assumption by Inland Permitted Transferee

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 7, Borrower shall be permitted to transfer the Property in its entirety to, provided the Loan is simultaneously assumed by, an Inland Permitted Transferee, and provided further that each of the following terms and conditions is satisfied:

(a)                                  no Default or Event of Default has occurred;

(b)                                 Borrower shall have delivered written notice to Lender of the terms of such prospective transfer not less than forty-five (45) days before the date on which such transfer is scheduled to close and, concurrently therewith, all such information concerning the proposed Transferee as Lender shall reasonably require;

(c)                                  Borrower shall have paid to Lender all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lender in connection with the transfer;

(d)                                 such Inland Permitted Transferee assumes and agrees to pay the Debt as and when due subject to the provisions of Article 15 hereof and, prior to or concurrently with the closing of such transfer, such Inland Permitted Transferee and its constituent partners, members or shareholders as Lender may require, shall execute, without any cost or expense to Lender, such documents and agreements as Lender shall reasonably require to evidence and effectuate said assumption;

(e)                                  Borrower and such Inland Permitted Transferee, without any cost to Lender, shall furnish any information requested by Lender for the preparation of, and shall authorize Lender to file, new financing statements and financing statement amendments and other documents to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and shall execute any additional documents reasonably requested by Lender;

(f)                                    Borrower shall have delivered to Lender, without any cost or expense to Lender, endorsements to Lender’s Title Insurance Policy insuring that fee simple title to the Property is vested in such Inland Permitted Transferee (subject to Permitted Encumbrances), hazard

39

insurance endorsements or certificates and other similar materials as Lender may deem necessary at the time of the transfer, all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender;

(g)                                 such Inland Permitted Transferee shall have furnished to Lender, if such Inland Permitted Transferee is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, all appropriate papers evidencing Transferee’s organization and good standing, and the qualification of the signers to execute the assumption of the Debt, which papers shall include certified copies of all documents relating to the organization and formation of Transferee and of the entities, if any, which are partners or members of Transferee. Transferee and such constituent partners, members or shareholders of Transferee (as the case may be), as Lender shall require, shall comply with the covenants set forth in Article 6 hereof, provided, however, that, (i) if such Inland Permitted Transferee is a limited partnership or a limited liability company (with more than one member), Lender may require that the general partner or managing member of such Inland Permitted Transferee also comply with the covenants set forth in Article 6, as modified to state that such general partner or managing member holds an interest in the Inland Permitted Transferee rather than an interest in the Property or (ii) if such Inland Permitted Transferee is a single member limited liability company, the state of organization of such entity must be Delaware and the organizational documents must provide for a springing member upon the bankruptcy or dissolution of the sole member;

(h)                                 such Inland Permitted Transferee shall assume the obligations of Borrower under any Management Agreement or provide a new management agreement with a new manager which meets with the requirements of Section 5.14 hereof and assign to Lender as additional security such new management agreement;

(i)                                     Transferee shall furnish an opinion of counsel satisfactory to Lender and its counsel (A) that Transferee’s formation documents provide for the matters described in subparagraph (g) above, (B) that the assumption of the Debt has been duly authorized, executed and delivered, and that the Note, the Mortgage, this Agreement, the assumption agreement and the other Loan Documents are valid, binding and enforceable against Transferee in accordance with their terms, (C) that Transferee and any entity which is a controlling stockholder, member or general partner of Transferee, have been duly organized, and are in existence and good standing, and (E) with respect to such other matters as Lender may reasonably request, including, without limitation, customary single member limited liability company opinions in the event that such Inland Permitted Transferee is a Delaware limited liability company; and

A consent by Lender with respect to a transfer of the Property in its entirety to, and the related assumption of the Loan by, a Transferee pursuant to this Section 7.6 shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right of Lender to consent to any subsequent Sale or Pledge of the Property.

INSURANCE; CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION; RESTORATION

Section 8.1                     Insurance

(a)                                  Subject to the provisions of paragraph (g) of this Section 8.1, Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause American Express to maintain, insurance for Borrower and the Property providing at least the following coverages:

(i)                                     comprehensive “special causes of loss” form of insurance (or its equivalent) on the Improvements and the Personal Property (A) in an amount equal to not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the “Full Replacement Cost,” which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with a waiver of depreciation; (B) written on a replacement cost basis and containing either an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the Improvements and Personal Property or a waiver of all co-insurance provisions; (C) providing for no deductible in excess of $10,000 for all such insurance coverage; (D) at all times insuring against at least those hazards that are commonly insured against under a “special causes of loss” form of policy, as the same shall exist on the date hereof, and together with any increase in the scope of coverage provided under such form after the date hereof; and (E) if any of the Improvements or the use of the Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses, providing coverage for contingent liability from Operation of Building Laws, Demolition Costs and Increased Cost of Construction Endorsements and containing an “Ordinance or Law Coverage” or “Enforcement” endorsement. In addition, Borrower shall obtain: (y) if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in a “special flood hazard area” designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount of such insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be amended; and (z) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender in the event the Property is located in an area with a high degree of seismic risk, provided that the insurance pursuant to clauses (y) and (z) hereof shall be on terms consistent with the special causes of loss form required under this subsection (i);

(ii)                                  commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Property, with such insurance (A) to be on the so-called “occurrence” form with a general aggregate limit of not less than $2,000,000 and a per occurrence limit of not less than $1,000,000; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; and (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations; (3) independent contractors; (4) blanket contractual liability; and (5) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in Article 12 and Article 14 hereof to the extent the same is available;

41

(iii)                               if the rating of American Express issued by the Rating Agencies falls below the Trigger Rating, loss of rents insurance or business income insurance, as applicable, (A) with loss payable to Lender; (B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above; and (C) which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property occurs, the loss of rents or income, as applicable, will be insured until such rents or income, as applicable, either returns to the same level that existed prior to the loss or the expiration of twelve (12) months, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (D) which contains an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. The amount of such loss of rents or business income insurance, as applicable, shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross income from the Property for the succeeding period of coverage required above. All proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such loss of rents or business income insurance, an applicable;

(iv)                              at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, and only if the Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (A) owner’s contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above written in a so-called Builder’s Risk Completed Value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against “special causes of loss” insured against pursuant to subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the Property, and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;

(v)                                 workers’ compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the State, and employer’s liability insurance in respect of any work or operations on or about the Property, or in connection with the Property or its operation (if applicable);

(vi)                              comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, if applicable, in amounts as shall be reasonably required by Lender on terms consistent with the commercial property insurance policy required under subsection (i) above;

(vii)                           excess liability insurance in an amount not less than $75,000,000 per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance required under subsection (ii) above; and

42

(viii)                        upon sixty (60) days’ written notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located.

With respect to the policies required to be maintained pursuant to clauses (i) through (viii) above, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with those of prudent owners of institutional quality commercial real estate, to maintain insurance against Losses resulting from acts of terrorism.

(b)                                 All insurance provided for in Section 8.1(a) shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of “A-” or better by S&P (or such other ratings approved by Lender) and/or a general policy rating of “A” or better and a financial class of VIII or better by A.M. Best Company, Inc. The Policies described in Section 8.1(a) shall designate Lender and its successors and assigns as additional insureds, mortgagees and/or loss payee as deemed appropriate by Lender. To the extent such Policies are not available as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender prior to the Closing Date an Acord 28 or similar certificate of insurance evidencing the coverages and amounts required hereunder and, upon request of Lender as soon as available after the Closing Date, certified copies of all Policies. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of any insurance coverage in place with respect to the Property, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Acord 28 or similar certificate, accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due in connection therewith (the “Insurance Premiums”), and, as soon as available thereafter, certified copies of all renewal Policies.

(c)                                  Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 8.1(a).

(d)                                 All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 8.1(a), except for the Policy referenced in Section 8.1(a)(v), shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

(e)                                  All Policies provided for in Section 8.1(a) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

(i)                                     no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any Tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in

43

any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;

(ii)                                  the Policies shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled by the insurer without at least thirty (30) days’ (ten (10) days’ in the case of non-payment of premium) prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured;

(iii)                               the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policies have not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and

(iv)                              Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

(f)                                    If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, obtaining such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate. All premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(g)                                 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, Lender acknowledges that so long as no American Express Lease Default has occurred, Borrower shall not be required to obtain the insurance coverages set forth in paragraphs (a)(i) through (viii) if (x) Guarantor (or American Express if there is no Guarantor) is a self-insurer and maintains a rating issued by the Rating Agencies of not less than the Trigger Rating or (y) American Express maintains insurance with coverages and carriers in compliance with the terms of the American Express Lease.

Section 8.2.                  Casualty

If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property in accordance with Section 8.4, whether or not Lender makes any Net Proceeds available pursuant to Section 8.4. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. Borrower shall adjust all claims for Insurance Proceeds in consultation with, and approval of, Lender; provided, however, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the exclusive right to participate in the adjustment of all claims for Insurance Proceeds.

Section 8.3.                  Condemnation

Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of the Property of which Borrower has knowledge and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings.

44

Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 8.4, whether or not Lender makes any Net Proceeds available pursuant to Section 8.4. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt. So long as no American Express Lease Default has occurred, the payment and allocation of any Awards shall be governed by the American Express Lease.

Section 8.4.                  Restoration

The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of the Property:

(a)                                  If the Net Proceeds shall be less than $50,000 and the costs of completing the Restoration, shall be less than $50,000, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4(b)(i) are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b)                                 If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than $50,000 or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than $50,000, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4. The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 8.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(i), (iv), (vi) and (viii) as a result of a Casualty, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting the same (“Insurance Proceeds”), or (ii) the net amount of the Award as a result of a Condemnation, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting the same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.

(i)                                     The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met:

(A)                              no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

45

(B)                                (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of a Casualty, or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the Property is taken, such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, and no portion of the Improvements is located on such land;

(C)                                The American Express Lease shall remain in full force and effect during and after completion of the Restoration without abatement of Rent;

(D)                               Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(E)                                 Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii) above;

(F)                                 Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Leases or material agreements affecting the Property, (3) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation, or (4) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 8.1(a)(iii);

(G)                                the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all Legal Requirements;

(H)                               the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements;

(I)                                    such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the Property or the Improvements;

(J)                                   Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be acceptable to Lender; and

(K)                               the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s reasonable judgment to cover the cost of the Restoration.

46

(ii)                                  The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender until disbursements commence, and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4, shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all the conditions precedent to such advance, including those set forth in Section 8.4(b)(i), have been satisfied, (B) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the related Restoration item have been paid for in full, and (C) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Business Interruption Proceeds required to be maintained by Borrower pursuant to section 8.1(a)(iii) shall be controlled by Lender at all times, shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.4 and shall be used solely for the payment of the obligations under the Loan Documents and Operating Expenses.

(iii)                               All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Restoration Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts in excess of $50,000 under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Restoration Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Restoration Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.

(iv)                              In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage. The term “Restoration Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Restoration Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Restoration Retainage shall be reduced to five percent (5%) of the costs incurred upon receipt by Lender of satisfactory evidence that fifty percent (50%) of the Restoration has been completed. The Restoration Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 8.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to

47

Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

(v)                                 Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(vi)                              If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Restoration Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Restoration Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 8.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents.

(vii)                           The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Restoration Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

(c)                                  All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 8.4(b)(vii) may (x) be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, (y) at the sole discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes and upon such conditions as Lender shall designate.

(d)                                 In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure, Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(e)                                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no American Express Lease Default has occurred, the Net Proceeds shall be used for restoration of the Property in accordance with the provisions of the American Express Lease.

ARTICLE 9
REPLACEMENTS; RESERVE FUNDS

Section 9.1.                  Replacements

On an ongoing basis throughout the term of the Loan, Borrower shall make capital repairs, replacements and improvements necessary to keep the Property in good order and repair and in a good marketable condition or prevent deterioration of the Property. So long as no American Express Lease Default shall have occurred, the compliance by American Express with its obligations for maintenance of the Property as set forth in the American Express Lease shall be deemed compliance by Borrower with the provisions of this Section 9.1.

Section 9.2.                  Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds

If required by Lender following a default by American Express under the American Express Lease Borrower shall establish an Eligible Account with Lender or Lender’s agent sufficient to discharge Borrower’s obligations for the payment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof (the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Account”) Borrower shall deposit into the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account on each Scheduled Payment Date (a) one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to the earlier of (i) the date that the same will become delinquent and (ii) the date that additional charges or interest will accrue due to the non-payment thereof, and (b) except to the extent Lender has waived the insurance escrow because the insurance required hereunder is maintained under a blanket insurance Policy acceptable to Lender in accordance with Section 8.1(c), one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds”). Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof. In making any disbursement from the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or tax lien service (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim

49

thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.4 and Section 8.1 hereof, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account. In allocating any such excess, Lender may deal with the person shown on Lender’s records as being the owner of the Property. Any amount remaining in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower or the person shown on Lender’s records as being the owner of the Property and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds are not or will not be sufficient to pay Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in (a) and (b) above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall pay to Lender any amount necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) days after notice from Lender to Borrower requesting payment thereof.

Section 9.3.                  Reserve Funds Generally

(a)                                  No earnings or interest on the Reserve Accounts shall be payable to Borrower. Neither Lender nor any loan servicer that at any time holds or maintains the Reserve Accounts shall have any obligation to keep or maintain such Reserve Accounts or any funds deposited therein in interest-bearing accounts. If Lender or any such loan servicer elects in its sole and absolute discretion to keep or maintain any Reserve Accounts or any funds deposited therein in an interest-bearing account (i) the account shall be an Eligible Account, (ii) such funds shall not be invested except in Permitted Investments, and (iii) all interest earned or accrued thereon shall be for the account of and be retained by Lender or such loan servicer.

(b)                                 Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in, and assigns and pledges to Lender, each of the Reserve Accounts and any and all funds hereafter deposited therein as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Accounts and the Reserve Funds shall constitute additional security for the Debt. The provisions of this Section 9.9 are intended to give Lender or any subsequent holder of the Loan “control” of the Reserve Accounts within the meaning of the UCC.

(c)                                  The Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds deposited therein shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Lender, which shall hold the Reserve Accounts and any or all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited therein subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal from the Reserve Accounts or any other right or power with respect to the Reserve Accounts or any or all of the Reserve Funds hereinafter deposited therein, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

(d)                                 Lender shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Borrower, without charge, an annual accounting of each Reserve Account in the normal format of Lender or its loan servicer, showing credits and debits to such Reserve Account and the purpose for which each debit to such Reserve Account was made.

(e)                                  As long as no Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall make disbursements from the Reserve Accounts in accordance with this Agreement. All such disbursements shall be

50

deemed to have been expressly pre-authorized by Borrower, and shall not be deemed to constitute the exercise by Lender of any remedies against Borrower unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Lender has expressly stated in writing its intent to proceed to exercise its remedies as a secured party, pledgee or lienholder with respect to the Reserve Accounts.

(f)                                    The Reserve Funds shall not constitute escrow or trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Lender may commingle in one or more Eligible Accounts any and all funds controlled by Lender, including, without limitation, funds pledged in favor of Lender by other borrowers, whether for the same purposes as the Reserve Accounts or otherwise. Without limiting any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Reserve Accounts may be established and held in such name or names as Lender or its loan servicer, as agent for Lender, shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, in the name of Lender or such loan servicer as agent for Lender. In the case of any Reserve Account which is held in a commingled account, Lender or its loan servicer, as applicable, shall maintain records sufficient to enable it to determine at all times which portion of such account is related to the Loan. The Reserve Accounts are solely for the protection of Lender and Lender shall have no responsibility beyond the allowance of due credit for the sums actually received by Lender or beyond the reimbursement or payment of the costs and expenses for which such accounts were established in accordance with their terms. Upon assignment of the Loan by Lender, any Reserve Funds shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender as assignor shall terminate. The requirements of this Agreement concerning Reserve Accounts in no way supersede, limit or waive any other rights or obligations of the parties under any of the Loan Documents or under applicable law.

(g)                                 Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Reserve Accounts or the Reserve Funds deposited therein or permit any Lien to attach thereto, except for the security interest granted in this Section 9.9, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.

(h)                                 Borrower will maintain the security interest created by this Section 9.9 as a first priority perfected security interest and will defend the right, title and interest of Lender in and to the Reserve Accounts and the Reserve Funds against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Lender, and at the sole expense of Borrower, Borrower will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and will take such further actions as Lender reasonably may request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.

Section 10.1.           Cash Management Account

(a)                                  Borrower acknowledges and confirms that Borrower has established, and Borrower covenants that it shall maintain an Eligible Account into which Borrower shall, and shall cause Manager to, deposit or cause to be deposited all Rents and other revenue from the Property during the Cash Management Period or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default prior to the commencement of the Cash Management Period pursuant to the terms of Section 10.2 hereof (such account, the sub-accounts thereof, all funds at any time on deposit therein and any proceeds, replacements or substitutions of such account or funds therein, are referred to herein as the “Cash Management Account”).

(b)                                 The Cash Management Account shall be in the name of Borrower for the benefit of Lender, provided that Borrower shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in such accounts for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes (except to the extent Lender retains any interest earned on the Cash Management Account for its own account following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default). Sums on deposit in the Cash Management Account shall not be invested except in such Permitted Investments as determined and directed by Lender and all income earned thereon shall be the income of Borrower and be applied to and become part of the Cash Management Account, to be disbursed in accordance with this Article 10. Lender shall have no liability for any loss resulting from the investment of funds in Permitted Investments in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(c)                                  The Cash Management Account shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Lender during the Cash Management Period or the continuance of an Event of Default and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Borrower, Manager nor any other party claiming on behalf of, or through, Borrower or Manager, shall have any right of withdrawal therefrom or any other right or power with respect thereto.

(d)                                 Borrower agrees to pay the customary fees and expenses incurred in connection with maintaining the Cash Management Account.

(e)                                  Lender shall be responsible for the performance only of such duties with respect to the Cash Management Account as are specifically set forth herein, and no duty shall be implied from any provision hereof. Lender shall not be under any obligation or duty to perform any act which would involve it in expense or liability or to institute or defend any suit in respect hereof, or to advance any of its own monies. Borrower shall indemnify and hold Lender and its directors, employees, officers and agents harmless from and against any loss, cost or damage (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by such parties in connection with the Cash Management Account other than such as result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender or intentional nonperformance by Lender of its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 10.2.           Deposits and Withdrawals

(a)                                  Borrower represents, warrants and covenants that:

(i)                                     Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement Borrower has executed and delivered to Lender an instruction letter in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto addressed to American Express (the “Tenant Direction Letter”). Upon the occurrence of

52

an Event of Default or upon commencement of the Cash Management Period, Lender or Lender’s agent shall have the right to deliver the Tenant Direction Letter to American Express and all payments of Rent and other items payable under the American Express Lease shall thereafter be sent directly to the Cash Management Account;

(ii)           On the occurrence of an Event of Default or the commencement of the Cash Management Period Borrower shall, and shall cause Manager to, instruct all Persons that maintain open accounts with Borrower or Manager with respect to the Property or with whom Borrower or Manager does business on an “accounts receivable” basis with respect to the Property to deliver all payments due under such accounts to the Cash Management Account. Neither Borrower nor Manager shall direct any such Person to make payments due under such accounts in any other manner;

(iii)          All Rents or other income from the Property received after the commencement of the Cash Management Period or the occurrence of an Event of Default shall (A) be deemed additional security for payment of the Debt and shall be held in trust for the benefit, and as the property, of Lender, (B) not be commingled with any other funds or property of Borrower or Manager, and (C) if received by Borrower or Manager notwithstanding the delivery of the Tenant Direction Letter, be deposited in the Cash Management Account within one (1) Business Day of receipt;

(iv)          Without the prior written consent of Lender, so long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding, during the Cash Management Period or the continuance of an Event of Default neither Borrower nor Manager shall terminate, amend, revoke or modify the Tenant Direction Letter in any manner whatsoever or direct or cause American Express to pay any amount in any manner other than as provided in the Tenant Direction Letter; and

(v)           So long as any portion of the Debt remains outstanding, during the Cash Management Period or during the continuance of an Event of Default neither Borrower, Manager nor any other Person shall open or maintain any accounts other than the Cash Management Account into which revenues from the ownership and operation of the Property are deposited.

(b)           Intentionally Omitted.

(c)           If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or during a Cash Management Period, on each Scheduled Payment Date (and if such day is not a Business Day, then the immediately preceding day which is a Business Day) commencing the month immediately following the month during which the Cash Management Period commences, Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to withdraw or allocate to the sub-accounts of the Cash Management Account, as the case may be, amounts received in the Cash Management Account, in each case to the extent that sufficient funds remain therefor:

(i)            following a default by American Express under the American Express Lease, funds sufficient to pay the monthly deposits to the Tax and Insurance Reserve

53

Account shall be allocated to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account to be held and disbursed in accordance with Section 9.2;

(ii)           funds sufficient to pay the Monthly Payment Amount shall he withdrawn and paid to Lender;

(iii)          funds sufficient to pay any interest accruing at the Default Rate., late payment charges, if any, and any other sums due and payable to Lender under any of the Loan Documents, shall be withdrawn and paid to Lender and applied against such items;

(iv)          funds sufficient to pay Operating Expenses (to the extent actually incurred) for the following month shall be allocated to the Operating Expense Reserve Account to be held and disbursed to pay Operating Expenses;

(v)           funds in an amount equal to the balance (if any) remaining on deposit in the Cash Management Account after the foregoing withdrawals and allocations shall be withdrawn and paid to Lender to be applied to the principal amount of the Loan until the principal amount of the Loan is paid in full.

(d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Borrower acknowledges that Borrower is responsible for monitoring the sufficiency of funds deposited in the Cash Management Account and that Borrower is liable for any deficiency in available funds, irrespective of whether Borrower has received any account statement, notice or demand from Lender or Lender’s servicer.  If the amount on deposit in the Cash Management Account is insufficient to make all of the withdrawals and allocations described in Section 10.2(c)(i) through (v) above, Borrower shall deposit such deficiency into the Cash Management Account within five (5) days (provided that such five day period shall not constitute a grace period for any default or Event of Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document based on a failure to satisfy any monetary obligation provided in any Loan Document).

(e)           If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to make any and all withdrawals from the Cash Management Account and transfers between any Reserve Account as Lender shall determine in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion and Lender may use all funds contained in any such accounts for any purpose, including but not limited to repayment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole and absolute discretion.  Lender’s right to withdraw and apply funds as stated herein shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.3.    Security Interest

(a)           To secure the full and punctual payment of the Debt and performance of all obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in each of the Accounts and the Account Collateral. Furthermore, Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any of the foregoing or permit any Lien to attach thereto or any levy to be made thereon or any UCC Financing Statements to be filed with respect thereto. Borrower will maintain the security

54

interest created by this Section 10.3(a) as a first priority perfected security interest and will defend the right, title and interest of Lender in and to each of the Accounts and the Account Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

(b)           Borrower authorizes Lender to file any financing statement or statements required by Lender to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interest granted herein in connection with the Cash Management Account. Borrower agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of Borrower, Borrower will promptly and duly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or desirable, or that Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby (including, without limitation, any security interest in and to any Permitted Investments) or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder.

(c)           Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Accounts and the Account Collateral. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon any Event of Default, Lender may use the Accounts and the Account Collateral for any of the following purposes: (A) repayment of the Debt, including, but not limited to, principal prepayments and the prepayment premium applicable to such full or partial prepayment (as applicable); (B) reimbursement of Lender for all losses, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of such Event of Default; (C) payment of any amount expended in exercising any or all rights and remedies available to Lender at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; (D) payment of any item as required or permitted under this Agreement; or (E) any other purpose permitted by applicable law; provided, however, that any such application of funds shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Event of Default. Without limiting any other provisions hereof, each of the remedial actions described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable exercise of Lender’s rights and remedies as a secured party with respect to the Accounts and the Account Collateral and shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a setoff or a foreclosure of a statutory banker’s lien. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all or any portion of the Accounts and the Account Collateral to effect a cure of any Event of Default, or to pay the Debt, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Lender’s right to initiate and complete a foreclosure under the Mortgage.
