2.    REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

2.1.    Revolving Credit Commitment.

2.1.1.    Revolving Line of Credit.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, Lender agrees to advance funds to Borrower at any time or from time to time during the term hereof, provided that after giving effect to any particular advance the Outstanding Borrowing Tranches outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the amount which would be permitted to be outstanding under the Sublimits. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1. All advances under this Agreement and the Revolving Credit Note constitute a single indebtedness, and all of the Collateral is security for the Revolving Credit Note and for the performance of all of the Obligations.

2.1.2.    Expansion Option.

At any time after January 1, 2016 but prior to the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the Scheduled Maturity Date, Borrower shall have the right to increase the Commitment as described below, up to a maximum of Three Hundred Fifty Million and NO/100 Dollars ($350,000,000) provided that (i) neither a Potential Default or Event of Default under this Agreement shall have occurred and then be continuing at the time of such request to increase and (ii) Guarantor complies with the Minimum Net Worth and Liquidity Requirements set forth in Section 2.18 at the time of such request to increase. Borrower shall exercise such right by (i) delivering to Lender (A) sixty (60) days prior written notice of its intent to increase the Commitment, which notice shall be accompanied by (B) a transaction fee as provided in Section 2.4.2, and (C) at such closing, all reasonable costs and expenses that Lender and Servicer incur in connection with such increase, including, but not limited to, Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and (ii) by executing and where appropriate acknowledging (A) amendments to this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note and any of the other Loan Documents, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, as Lender deems reasonably necessary to evidence the increase in the Commitment and to increase the amount of coverage under Lender’s existing title insurance policies, and (B) any other amendments or

agreements deemed reasonably necessary by Lender. All amendments referred to in clause (ii)(A) of the preceding sentence shall be prepared by Lender’s counsel and delivered to Borrower within a reasonable time of Borrower’s notice to Lender under clause (i) of the preceding sentence. Upon Borrower’s compliance with all of the provisions of items (i) and (ii) above, the Commitment shall be increased to the amount selected by Borrower, but not more than Three Hundred Fifty Million and NO/100 Dollars ($350,000,000). The minimum amount of each increase in the Commitment requested by Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be Seventy-five Million and NO/100 Dollars ($75,000,000) (“Minimum Expansion Amount”), provided however, if the first expansion option is exercised in an amount greater than the Minimum Expansion Amount, the second expansion option may be exercised in an amount which would increase the Commitment to Three Hundred Fifty Million and NO/100 Dollars ($350,000,000).

2.1.3.    Contraction Option.

Borrower shall have the right to decrease the Commitment as described below; provided such decrease of the Commitment is a result of either Borrower’s (i) sale of a Mortgaged Property to a third party as reasonably determined by Lender; or (ii) refinancing of the Mortgaged Property in connection with a Permanent Loan pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.15. Borrower shall exercise such right by (i) delivering to Lender (a) sixty (60) days prior written notice of its intent to decrease the Commitment, which notice shall be accompanied by (b) the Partial Termination Fee as set forth in Section 2.10, (c) all reasonable costs and expenses that Lender and Servicer incur in connection with such decrease, including, but not limited to, Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and (ii) by executing and where appropriate acknowledging (a) amendments to this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note and any of the other Loan Documents, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, as Lender deems reasonably necessary to evidence the decrease in the Commitment, and (b) any other amendments or agreements deemed reasonably necessary by Lender. All amendments referred to in clause (ii)(a) of the preceding sentence shall be prepared by Lender’s counsel and delivered to Borrower within a reasonable time of Borrower’s notice to Lender under clause (i) of the preceding sentence. Upon Borrower’s compliance with all of the provisions of items (i) and (ii) above, the Commitment shall be decreased by an amount equal to the Allocated Loan Amount of the released Mortgaged Property in the event of a third party sale, or decreased by the amount of the Permanent Loan in the event of a refinance pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.15. Once Borrower has elected to decrease the Commitment any unexercised expansion of the Commitment as set forth in Section 2.1.2 shall be deemed null and void and of no further force and effect.

(i)    Borrower shall provide written Notice to Lender at least sixty (60) days, but no more than ninety (90) days, prior to the initial Scheduled Maturity Date, which Notice shall be supplemented by such additional information as Lender may reasonably require to determine, in its sole discretion, whether the conditions set forth in this Section 2.2(b) have been satisfied;

Lender and Borrower shall evidence the new Scheduled Maturity Date and applicable Net Spread pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) by executing a confirmation substantially in the form attached hereto as Schedule 2.2.

2.9.    Additions to the Collateral Pool.

2.9.1.    Procedure for Proposing a Real Property Addition to the Collateral Pool.

Borrower or Proposed Borrower, as the case may be, may propose to add one (1) or more real properties to the Collateral Pool by delivering to Lender (i) a written proposal for addition of the proposed real property(ies), (ii) an Addition Fee for each proposed real property as and when required pursuant to Section 2.9.3, (iii) a Seismic Report Fee, if and as applicable, for each proposed real property, and (iv) the Underwriting Materials with respect to the proposed real property(ies) and with respect to Proposed Borrower, if applicable, provided that, Borrower shall utilize its best efforts to aggregate such submission(s) relating to one or more multifamily real properties to cause such submission(s) to constitute no more than three (3) proposals being submitted to Lender in any one (1) Month. Upon Lender’s receipt of all fees required hereunder and all Underwriting Materials, Lender shall notify Borrower or Proposed Borrower of the same. The determination of whether Borrower or Proposed Borrower has provided Lender with all Underwriting Materials shall be in Lender’s discretion. For purposes of this Section 2.9, Borrower or Proposed Borrower may submit a multifamily real property for addition to the Collateral Pool, if Borrower or Proposed Borrower has a contract to purchase such real property, provided that Borrower or Proposed Borrower consummates the purchase of such real property on or before the date such real property is proposed to be added to the Collateral Pool and a Borrowing Tranche must be funded with respect thereto, concurrent with Borrower’s or Proposed Borrower’s acquisition of same and joinder to this Agreement subject to Lender’s timely receipt of all Underwriting Materials. Both the Addition Fee and the Seismic Report Fee, if any, shall be deemed earned upon delivery thereof, whether or not Lender approves or disapproves such real property for addition hereunder. Borrower or Proposed Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses that Lender and Servicer incur in connection with any such proposal to add a real property to the Collateral Pool, including, but not limited to, Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and any reasonable costs and expenses incurred with respect to third

party reports, whether or not Lender approves or disapproves such real property for addition hereunder. Borrower (or Proposed Borrower as applicable) or its Affiliates shall be permitted to engage and pay directly the third-party consultants to be retained for the required property condition reports and environmental reports provided that (A) Lender and Servicer approve in advance and in writing each such consultant and the scope of each such report, and (B) each such report states that it is made for the benefit, use and reliance of Lender and Servicer, as well as Borrower (or Proposed Borrower as applicable) and/or its Affiliate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, only proposed Mortgaged Properties presented by Borrower or Proposed Borrower to Servicer for underwriting and approval pursuant to this Agreement will be eligible for addition to the Collateral Pool.

2.9.2.    Procedure for Adding a Real Property to the Collateral Pool.

2.9.2.1.    With respect to any multifamily real property that Borrower or Proposed Borrower, as the case may be, proposes for addition to the Collateral Pool, Lender shall, within twenty (20) days of the date on which Lender notifies Borrower or Proposed Borrower that it has received all Underwriting Materials, use its best efforts to accept or reject in writing the proposed real property on the basis of whether such proposed real property meets Lender’s then current requirements for addition to the Collateral Pool, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, and in the event that Lender accepts the proposed real property for addition to the Collateral Pool, Lender shall provide Borrower or Proposed Borrower with a written approval letter and use its best efforts to add such real property to the Collateral Pool within twenty (20) days of the date of such acceptance, subject to Borrower’s or Proposed Borrower’s timely performance of all obligations listed under Section 2.9.2.2. Each property must pass Lender’s own assessment of earthquake risk to be included in the Collateral Pool. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no real property shall be submitted for addition unless the value of such property, as determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, is equal to or greater than Ten Million and NO/100 Dollars ($10,000,000). The failure of Lender to respond to Borrower’s or Proposed Borrower’s request within such twenty (20) day period shall be deemed a rejection by Lender of the proposal to add the real property to the Collateral Pool. If Lender provide(s) the reason(s) for such rejection, Borrower or Proposed Borrower shall have forty-five (45) days to cure or otherwise resolve to the satisfaction of Lender, the objections of Lender to such proposed real property (Lender, in its sole discretion, may require that Borrower or Proposed Borrower provide within such forty-five (45) day cure period necessary updates of any or all of the Underwriting Materials). If Borrower or Proposed Borrower does not satisfy Lender’s objections, then such proposal shall be deemed terminated (unless Lender, in its sole discretion shall opt to extend such forty-five (45) day cure period) provided that, any such termination shall not prevent Borrower or Proposed Borrower from subsequently resubmitting a real property (together with all fees required hereunder and the Underwriting Materials) for addition to the Collateral Pool, further provided that Borrower or Proposed Borrower may not resubmit the same real property for addition to the Collateral Pool more often than one (1) time in any twelve (12) month period unless otherwise permitted by Lender.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary, under no circumstances shall the addition of any real property increase the amount of the Commitment.

2.9.2.2.    If and upon the date of acceptance by Lender of a multifamily real property submitted for addition to the Collateral Pool (such acceptance to be in writing, together with Lender’s determination of the Initial Market Value of such real property and the Net Operating Income of such property), whether following the initial proposal of such real property or after satisfying any objections of Lender, such real property shall be added to the Collateral Pool, provided that, prior to such addition (or in the instance of the documents required under item (iii)(b) below, as soon as practicable after such addition), no Event of Default, Potential Default or Material Adverse Change shall exist and then be continuing and Borrower or Proposed Borrower shall (i) pay the Addition Fee pursuant to Section 2.9.3, (ii) pay all costs and expenses that Lender or Servicer incur in connection with the inclusion of such real property, including, but not limited to, Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, and (iii) submit the following to Lender: (a) all Collateral Pool Property Documents requested by Lender, where appropriate, fully executed and where appropriate duly acknowledged and filed of record in the appropriate official public records, (b) copies of all filing receipts and acknowledgements issued by any governmental authority evidencing any recordation or filing necessary to perfect Lender’s Lien on the subject real property or other evidence satisfactory to Lender of such recordation and filing of the applicable Security Instrument, (c) evidence satisfactory to Lender that, subject to the Permitted Exceptions, (1) in the case of personal property, the Lien constitutes a first priority security interest in favor of Lender and, (2) in the case of real property, the Security Instrument constitutes a valid and perfected first priority Lien in favor of Lender (such evidence to be in the form of a title insurance policy acceptable to Lender in both form and substance), (d) such consents to the transaction by Guarantor as requested by Lender or Servicer in form and substance acceptable to the requesting party, (e) opinions of counsel acceptable to Lender and (f) such other certificates and documentation as required by Lender or Servicer and (iv) in the case of a Proposed Borrower, such Proposed Borrower shall also execute (a) separate allonges to the Revolving Credit Note and (b) a joinder agreement, both of which shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion. If Borrower or Proposed Borrower fails to perform any of the acts, where applicable, or to submit any of the documents and evidence listed under (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above together with any and all updates to the Underwriting Materials reasonably requested by Lender within forty-five (45) days of the date of Lender’s acceptance, Lender may at its option reject the proposed real property and terminate such proposal. In the event that Borrower or Proposed Borrower performs all of the acts and submits all of the documents and evidence listed in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above within forty-five (45) days of the date of Lender’s acceptance, the proposed real property shall be added to the Collateral Pool.

2.9.3.    Addition Fee.

For each property added to the Collateral Pool, Borrower shall pay, in addition to any other fees payable to Lender and Servicer upon such addition, the Addition Fee. The Addition Fee shall be due and payable to the Lender and Servicer as applicable, upon Lender’s approval of the addition of the proposed real property to the Collateral Pool.

2.10.    Release of Collateral.

Lender shall, upon thirty (30) days advance written Notice, release the Liens granted hereunder with respect to a Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties which constitute(s) less than all Collateral Pool Properties, provided that (i) Borrower shall pay Lender (a) the Partial Termination Fee described in Section 2.4.8 of this Agreement, if applicable and (b) all costs and expenses that Lender or Servicer incur in connection with such release, including, but not limited to, Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and all other amounts due to Lender hereunder in connection with such release, including, without limitation, Accrued Interest and unpaid interest, if applicable, (ii) at the time of the request for such release, no Event of Default or Potential Default shall exist, (iii) after giving effect to such release, no Event of Default or Potential Default shall exist, and (iv) Borrower shall be in compliance with all provisions hereof including, without limitation, the Sublimits, provided, however, that if such release would otherwise cause Borrower to be in non-compliance with the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.5.3, Borrower shall have the opportunity to cure the same prior to or simultaneously with such release by either (a) pledging multifamily real property collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion, in accordance with Section 2.9 or (b) prepaying so much of the Loan as is necessary to cause compliance with the Sublimits, each in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3. Upon the release of a Lien on a Mortgaged Property, if the owner of such Mortgaged Property owns no other Collateral Pool Properties, such owner shall be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances may Borrower receive a release of the Security Instrument with respect to the last property in the Collateral Pool prior to the Maturity Date, unless Borrower has elected to terminate this Agreement under Section 2.13 hereunder. Borrower may revoke a pending request to release a Mortgaged Property at any time; provided that Borrower pays all of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses with respect to such release request, including, without limitation, Attorneys’ Fees and Costs; in which event, Borrower shall be entitled to reimbursement of the Partial Termination Fee, if any, paid to Lender in connection with such request to release a Mortgaged Property.

2.11.    Payment of the Loan Balance Without Termination.

Prior to the Maturity Date, Borrower shall have the right to repay the entire Loan (i.e., the Revolving Credit Note), subject in each instance to the provisions of Sections 4.3 and 4.4, all without any release of any Lien, and subsequently reborrow hereunder, provided that Borrower is at such time, and thereafter remains, in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, including, without

limitation, the obligation to be in compliance with the Sublimits and the obligations to pay all fees due and payable hereunder. Under no circumstances shall Borrower be entitled to any additional advances or re-advances under the Revolving Credit Note on or after the Maturity Date.

2.12.    Valuations.

2.12.1.    Timing and Procedure of Valuation.

In addition to any other provisions requiring valuations hereunder, Lender shall perform, in accordance with its then current underwriting policies, practices and procedures consistently applied, a valuation (the “Valuation”) to determine the then (i) Market Value and (ii) Net Operating Income of each of the Collateral Pool Properties, which Valuation shall be performed on the first date such Collateral Pool Property is added to the Collateral Pool, on or about the first anniversary date of the Closing Date of this Agreement, and annually thereafter. In connection with the first Valuation, Borrower shall deliver to Servicer by no later than ninety (90) days prior to the first anniversary date, a current rent roll (which shall be no more than thirty (30) days old) and a twelve (12) month operating statement with respect to each Mortgaged Property, each certified by an Authorized Officer. Annually thereafter, in connection with the Valuation, Borrower shall deliver to Servicer by no later than ninety (90) days prior to the anniversary date, a current rent roll (which shall be no more than thirty (30) days old) and a twelve (12) month operating statement with respect to each Mortgaged Property, each certified by an Authorized Officer. Any operating statement required hereunder shall relate to the operations of the applicable Mortgaged Property during the preceding calendar year. Without limiting the foregoing, each such rent roll and operating statement shall be in such form and contain such detail as Lender may reasonably require, and Lender may require that any such rent rolls and operating statements shall be verified by an independent party acceptable to Lender, if Lender in its reasonable discretion believes the information contained therein is inaccurate or misleading.

2.12.2.    Valuations that Disclose a Decrease in Market Value and/or Net Operating Income.

If any Valuation discloses that the Market Value and/or Net Operating Income of the Collateral Pool Properties has decreased below the then current values or calculations thereof, the Maximum Facility Available may be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.5.3 and in the event such decrease in Market Value or Net Operating Income shall cause Borrower to be in non-compliance with the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.5.3, Borrower shall comply with the provisions of Section 4.3.2.

2.12.3.    Valuations that Disclose an Increase in Market Value and/or Net Operating Income.

If any Valuation discloses that the Market Value and/or Net Operating Income of the Collateral Pool Properties has increased above the then current values thereof, the Maximum Facility Available may be adjusted, if necessary, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.5.3, and Borrower shall be entitled to borrow and reborrow hereunder, subject to the Sublimits, up to the amount of the Commitment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.13.    Termination.

2.13.1.    Rights to Terminate.

Borrower and Lender shall have the rights to terminate this Agreement or to accelerate the Loan, as applicable, as set forth in this Section 2.13.

2.13.2.    Borrower’s Right to Terminate the Agreement.

At any time during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in full and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents, provided that Borrower (i) delivers to Lender thirty (30) days advance written Notice of its revocable election to terminate this Agreement specifying the Expiration Date, (ii) repays all Accrued Interest (as hereinafter defined) on, and principal with respect to, the Loan in full and (iii) performs all Obligations under this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note and the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, Borrower’s obligations to pay all fees as specified in Section 2.13.4. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Sponsor Liquidity Event shall be deemed an election by Borrower to terminate this Agreement. In the event Borrower has complied with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.13.2, Lender shall release the Liens granted hereunder on the Expiration Date in accordance with Section 2.10. Without limiting any other provision contained herein, in the event Borrower shall revoke any such request to terminate its Obligations under this Agreement in full and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents, Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender and Servicer in connection with such revocation, including, without limitation, Attorneys’ Fees and Costs.

2.13.3.    Lender’s Right to Accelerate.

Lender shall have the right to (i) accelerate the Loan upon an Event of Default that remains uncured by Borrower beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period under this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note, or any other of the Loan Documents and to (ii) collect the Accrued Interest and liquidated fees pursuant to Section 2.13.4.

2.13.4.    Fees Due Upon Early Termination and/or Acceleration.

In the event (i) Borrower shall terminate Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.13.2 or (ii) Lender shall accelerate the Loan pursuant to the

provisions of Section 2.13.3 prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay (i) any Accrued Interest with respect to each outstanding Borrowing Tranche calculated in accordance with Section 4.4 and (ii) an early termination fee (an “Early Termination Fee”) equal to the greater of (a) one percent (1.0%) of the Commitment, or (b) the present value of the Lowest Margin times the Commitment that would have been paid to Lender from the date of the termination to the Scheduled Maturity Date; provided, that, in the event the Borrower’s termination under Section 2.13.2 is the result of a Sponsor Liquidity Event, then the Early Termination Fee shall be equal to two percent (2.0%) of the Commitment if the Sponsor Liquidity Event occurs during the period from the Closing Date until the second (2^nd) anniversary date of the Closing Date or one percent (1.0%) of the Commitment thereafter. In the event Borrower elects not to reduce the Commitment after the release of a Mortgaged Property and the refinancing of such Mortgaged Property through the Securitized Product as set forth in Section 2.4.8 of this Agreement, for purposes of calculating the Early Termination Fee, Lender will reduce the Commitment by the amount of the financing for such Mortgaged Property in the Securitized Product.

2.14.    Material Adverse Change to Borrower or a Mortgaged Property.

If (i) Borrower or a Mortgaged Property experiences a Material Adverse Change or (ii) a Material Adverse Change occurs with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents taken as a whole, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of the same in writing as soon as Borrower has notice thereof. If Lender shall receive Notice of a Material Adverse Change in accordance with the preceding sentence, or otherwise becomes aware of a Material Adverse Change, which Material Adverse Change affects a Mortgaged Property, Lender may promptly conduct a Valuation of the affected Mortgaged Property pursuant to Section 2.12. Until such time as such Valuation, if requested (which Borrower shall have the right to request), shall be completed, the Mortgaged Property which experienced the Material Adverse Change, or which is owned by a Borrower that experienced a Material Adverse Change, shall be deemed, for the purposes of determining whether any new borrowing request satisfies all of the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.5.3, to have a Market Value and Net Operating Income reasonably determined and quantified by Lender upon the information then available to Lender. Lender shall promptly provide Borrower with written Notice of the results of such Valuation. If the results of such Valuation disclose that the Market Value of the affected Mortgaged Property has decreased, then the Market Value shall thereafter be deemed to be the amount shown in such Valuation. In the event that such Valuation hereunder shall cause Borrower to be in non-compliance with the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.5.3, Borrower shall comply with the provisions of Section 4.3.2. If Lender shall receive Notice of a Material Adverse Change from Borrower hereunder, or otherwise becomes aware of a Material Adverse Change which affects Borrower or the enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents taken as a whole, Borrower shall promptly provide any information or documents reasonably requested by Lender, including, but not limited to, (a) with respect to a Material Adverse Change which affects Borrower, financial statements and Borrower’s business plan to cure such Material Adverse Change

or (b) with respect to a Material Adverse Change which affects the enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents taken as a whole, replacement documents in form and substance acceptable to Lender in its discretion, together with a legal opinion regarding the enforceability of such replacement documents, acceptable to Lender in its discretion.

2.15.    Release of Collateral Followed by a Permanent Loan.

2.15.1.    Permanent Loan.

Borrower may request that Lender cause Servicer to make a permanent loan (the “Permanent Loan”) to be secured by one or more Collateral Pool Properties designated by Borrower (the “Permanent Loan Collateral”) to be simultaneously released from the Collateral Pool and encumbered in favor of Servicer as security for Borrower’s obligations under the Permanent Loan, which request shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.15.2. The Permanent Loan shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Securitized Product. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances may Borrower receive a release of the Security Instrument with respect to the last property in the Collateral Pool prior to the Maturity Date, unless Borrower has elected to terminate this Agreement under Section 2.13 hereunder. Servicer shall be permitted to collect from Borrower (and Borrower shall pay to Servicer) a commitment fee for such Permanent Loan, as reasonably determined by Servicer based on then-current market commitment fees.

2.15.2.    Procedure for Making a Permanent Loan.

Borrower may request that Lender cause Servicer to make a Permanent Loan to Borrower, which request (i) shall be in writing, which writing shall specify (a) the Mortgaged Property(ies) that will constitute the Permanent Loan Collateral, (b) the original principal amount of the requested Permanent Loan, (c) the related reduction in the Maximum Facility Available, (d) whether Borrower has selected Lender’s then current early rate lock delivery option, and (e) any payment or prepayment of a Borrowing Tranche, and (ii) shall be accompanied by (a) any fees then due and owing under the Securitized Product for each Mortgaged Property proposed by Borrower to be subject to the Permanent Loan, and (b) the Underwriting Materials. Following receipt of all of the items specified in (i) and (ii) of the previous sentence, Lender shall use its best efforts to consent to Borrower’s request within forty-five (45) days of such Notice, provided that (1) at the time of such request no Event of Default or Potential Default exists, (2) the Permanent Loan shall be made in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of the Securitized Product, (3) after giving effect to such release, no Event of Default or Potential Default shall exist and Borrower will be in compliance with all provisions hereof, including the Sublimits set forth in Section 2.5.3, further provided that if any release occasioned by a Permanent Loan would otherwise cause Borrower to be in non-compliance with the Sublimits, Borrower shall have the opportunity to cure the same, prior to or simultaneously with the release and the consummation of the Permanent Loan (which shall occur

pursuant to the Securitized Product), by (A) pledging collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion, or (B) prepaying so much of the Loan as is necessary to cause compliance with the Sublimits, each in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3, (4) Borrower shall provide evidence to Lender of title insurance in form and substance acceptable to Lender and in the face amount of the Permanent Loan, (5) the proposed Borrower under the Permanent Loan shall execute and deliver such documents as Lender, in its discretion, may request in order to evidence the making of the Permanent Loan and in order to grant Lender a first priority Lien on the real and personal property constituting the Permanent Loan Collateral subject, in each case, to any Permitted Exceptions, and (6) Borrower shall pay Lender any fees then due and owing under the Securitized Product. Thereafter, Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Permanent Loan within thirty (30) days after its consent to Borrower’s request thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Borrower selects Lender’s then current early rate lock delivery option, Lender shall use its best efforts, subject to Borrower’s timely compliance with Lender’s requests, to lock the interest rate for the requested Permanent Loan within seven (7) Business Days of Borrower’s Notice hereunder. Any Permanent Loan granted pursuant to the foregoing provisions shall not reduce the Commitment hereunder unless Borrower elects pursuant to Section 2.4.8. Simultaneous with the closing of the Permanent Loan, Lender shall release the Lien granted hereunder on the Permanent Loan Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the release and consummation of the Permanent Loan, Borrower may by written Notice revoke its request for a release and a Permanent Loan pursuant to this Section 2.15; provided, however, that Borrower shall reimburse Lender and Servicer respectively, for Lender’s and Servicer’s costs and expenses, including breakage costs and Attorneys’ Fees and Costs and any other fees due under this Agreement, that Lender or Servicer incur in connection with such proposed release and Permanent Loan financing prior to Borrower’s revocation.

2.16.    Non-Compliance With Sublimits.

If Borrower is unable to cause compliance with the Sublimits pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.15.2, 3.3.3 or 4.3.2.1 hereof, within fifteen (15) days following Notice thereof from Servicer (or Lender) of Borrower’s non-compliance with the Sublimits, then, for so long as Borrower fails to comply with the Sublimits, the Net Spread applicable to all Borrowing Tranches then outstanding (and thereafter renewed) shall automatically increase to one hundred basis points (0.01) over the highest Net Spread shown on Schedule 3.2 (as such Net Spreads are adjusted by Lender pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and Section 2.4.6.2), further increased, if at all, in accordance with Schedule 3.2, as a result of the duration of such Base Rate Borrowing Tranche(s) Interest Period; provided, however, such increase shall not constitute a cure of an Event of Default under Section 8.1.3.

2.17.    Loan Documents.

From time to time, but subject to the limitations in Section 1.2.3 herein, Lender in its sole discretion revises its form Loan Documents to add, delete or change requirements, conditions and other provisions of its form documents. Freddie Mac, in its sole discretion, may use the prior or revised form of Loan Documents in conjunction with any Mortgaged Properties added to the Collateral Pool after the date hereof.

2.18.    Guaranty.

Borrower shall cause Guarantor to guaranty all or a portion of Borrower’s non-recourse carve-out and environmental indemnity obligations under the Loan Documents, as set forth in the Guaranty (“Guaranty”). Sponsor will maintain a minimum net worth (“Minimum Net Worth”) of thirty percent (30%) of the aggregate Allocated Loan Amount and liquid assets (“Liquidity”) equal to seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of the aggregate Allocated Loan Amount with first such measurement being at Closing. Guarantor must attest to compliance with the Minimum Net Worth and Liquidity covenants annually thereafter pursuant to the terms set forth in Section 7.3, pursuant to the terms of Section 2.1.2 and as part of each Loan Request. In the event Lender determines, after an evaluation performed pursuant to Section 7.3, 2.1.2 or as part of a Loan Request, that Sponsor is not in compliance with the Minimum Net Worth and Liquidity requirements, upon written request by Borrower, Lender may, in its sole discretion, permit Borrower to add one or more Persons as a Guarantor to satisfy the Minimum Net Worth and Liquidity requirements; provided however, such addition as approved by Lender shall be completed within forty-five (45) days after Lender’s performance of the valuation pursuant to Section 7.3.

2.19.    Release of a Borrower

At such time as the Lien encumbering Collateral Pool Property is fully released by Lender pursuant to Sections 2.10, 2.13.2 or 2.15 hereof, Lender shall promptly release and forever discharge the applicable Single Asset Entity Borrower from any and all of its obligations under the Revolving Credit Note, this Agreement and all Loan Documents (a) provided such Borrower no longer owns any remaining Collateral Pool Properties and (b) except as to environmental indemnifications under Sections 6.12 and 10.02 of the applicable Loan Agreement.

3.    INTEREST RATES

3.1.    Interest Rate.

The interest rate on each Borrowing Tranche evidenced by the Revolving Credit Note shall be the Base Rate or, if required pursuant to Sections 3.3.2 or 3.4 hereof, the Prime Rate. Interest rates under this Agreement and the Revolving Credit Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and actual days elapsed.

3.2.    Interest Rate Determinations.

3.2.1.    Prime Rate and Base Rate Determination.

(a)    The initial Prime Rate applicable to any Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche required under Sections 3.3.2 or 3.4 shall equal the Prime Rate as of the Borrowing Date or Renewal Date, as applicable. The Prime Rate shall thereafter fluctuate in accordance with any changes to the Prime Rate as published from time to time during the term of the Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche.

(b)    The Base Rate applicable to any Base Rate Borrowing Tranche hereunder shall, subject to the provisions set forth below, equal the Base Rate calculated as of the date of the Loan Request and set forth in the Loan Request. In the event that the Base Rate, calculated as of the Borrowing Date, is more than twenty-five basis points (0.0025) higher or lower than the Base Rate set forth in the Loan Request, the Base Rate applicable to such Loan Request shall instead be the Base Rate calculated as of the Borrowing Date. Thereafter, (i) the portion of the Base Rate attributable to the LIBOR Index Rate (or such alternative index as may be selected by Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4) for any Base Rate Borrowing Tranche shall be redetermined as of each renewal of such Borrowing Tranche pursuant to Section 3.3.3 and (ii) the Margin for all Borrowing Tranches then outstanding shall be redetermined as of each determination and redetermination of the Net Spread. As determined and redetermined pursuant to this Agreement, the same Margin shall apply to all Borrowing Tranches then outstanding. The portion of the Margin attributable to the Net Spread shall be determined based on the Facility DSCR in accordance with the table set forth in Schedule 3.2. The Facility DSCR and Net Operating Income shall each be redetermined in accordance with the definitions thereof, as applicable.

3.2.2.    Prime Rate, Base Rate and Margin Quotations.

Borrower may call Servicer on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered or prior to the end of an Interest Period, to receive both a calculation of the resulting Facility DSCR for a proposed Prime Rate (if required pursuant to Sections 3.3.2 or 3.4) or Base Rate Borrowing Tranche and an indication of the rates then in effect, including the Margin, but both parties acknowledge that such projection shall not be binding on Lender or Borrower, nor shall such projection affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made.

3.3.    Interest Periods.

Upon each Loan Request for a new Base Rate Borrowing Tranche, and upon each Renewal Request applicable to a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche, Borrower shall notify Lender of the period (the “Interest Period”) which may only be a one (1) month (having original durations to maturity of approximately thirty (30) days) or three (3) month (having original durations to maturity of approximately ninety (90) days) for which the LIBOR Index Rate shall be determined.

3.3.1.    Interest Period to End on a Business Day.

If the last day of any Interest Period is not a Business Day, the Interest Period shall be deemed to mature on the Business Day immediately following such date.

3.3.2.    No Interest Periods Beyond the Expiration Date.

Borrower shall not select or renew an Interest Period for any Base Rate Borrowing Tranche that would end after the Expiration Date. If at the time of any such selection or renewal the period of time remaining prior to the Expiration Date is less than thirty (30) days then such Borrowing Tranche shall bear interest at the Prime Rate. No Prime Rate Borrowing Tranche may remain outstanding in excess of thirty (30) days at any one time.

3.3.3.    Renewals.

In the case of a redetermination of an Interest Period at the end of an Interest Period, for purposes of calculating interest due under the applicable Borrowing Tranche the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the first Business Day immediately following the last day of the preceding Interest Period (such date, the “Renewal Date”). For each Base Rate Borrowing Tranche, if no new Interest Period is specified within two (2) Business Days prior to the last day of such Interest Period, by delivery to Lender of a fully completed, authorized and executed request therefor (a “Renewal Request”) in the form attached hereto as Schedule 3.3.3, the Borrowing Tranche shall be renewed for an Interest Period of one-month at the Base Rate then applicable to a Borrowing Tranche disbursed on the applicable Renewal Date having a one-month Interest Period. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) no Borrowing Tranche may be renewed with a principal amount of less than One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) and (ii) in the event the Facility DSCR is less than required in accordance with Section 2.5.3.2 hereto or the LTV Ratio exceeds the ratio required in accordance with Section 2.5.3.1 hereto, Borrower may renew or consolidate (but not increase the outstanding principal amount of) any Borrowing Tranche(s) then outstanding, all in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3.3, provided that, as of the date of such renewal or consolidation (a) no Event of Default or Potential Default, other than Borrower’s failure to comply with Sections 2.5.3.1 or 2.5.3.2, shall then exist, (b) Borrower’s failure to comply with Sections 2.5.3.1 or 2.5.3.2 shall have been for a period of less than ninety (90) days, and (c) Borrower is otherwise in full compliance with all other terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, including the provisions of Section 4.5. Borrower must assure compliance with Sections 2.5.3.1 or 2.5.3.2 pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3.

3.3.4.    Interest After Default.

So long as (i) any payment under this Agreement remains past due for thirty (30) days or more, or (ii) any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, interest on the Loan shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance from the earlier of the due date of the first unpaid installment or the occurrence of such other Event of Default at the Default Rate (as defined in the Revolving

Credit Note) set forth in the Revolving Credit Note. If the unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest on the Loan are not paid in full on the Expiration Date, the unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest on the Loan shall thereafter bear interest at the default rate set forth in the Revolving Credit Note. Borrower acknowledges that (a) its failure to make timely payments will cause Lender to incur additional expenses in servicing and processing the Loan, (b) during the time that any installment is delinquent for more than thirty (30) days, Lender will incur additional costs and expenses arising from its loss of the use of the money due and from the adverse impact on Lender’s ability to meet its other obligations and to take advantage of other investment opportunities, and (c) it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine those additional costs and expenses. Borrower also acknowledges that, during the time that any installment is delinquent for more than thirty (30) days or any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender’s risk of nonpayment will be materially increased and Lender is entitled to be compensated for such increased risk. Borrower agrees that the increase in the rate of interest set forth in the Revolving Credit Note represents a fair and reasonable estimate, taking into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Agreement, of the additional costs and expenses Lender will incur by reason of Borrower’s delinquent payment and the additional compensation Lender is entitled to receive for the increased risks of nonpayment associated with a delinquent loan.

3.3.5.    Late Charge.

If any amount payable under this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note or any other Loan Document, other than (i) the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Note payable on the Expiration Date or (ii) the then outstanding amount of the Loan payable upon acceleration of the Revolving Credit Note, is not received by Lender as provided in the Revolving Credit Note, Borrower shall pay to Lender, immediately and without demand by Lender, a late charge as specified in the Revolving Credit Note. Borrower acknowledges that its failure to make timely payments will cause Lender to incur additional expenses in servicing and processing the Loan, and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine those additional expenses. Borrower agrees that the late charge payable specified in the Revolving Credit Note represents a fair and reasonable estimate, taking into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Agreement, of the additional expenses Lender will incur by reason of such late payment. The late charge is payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, any interest payable at the Default Rate specified in the Revolving Credit Note.

3.4.    Illegality; Increased Costs.

3.4.1.    Reserved.

3.4.2.    Illegality; Increased Costs.

At any time at which Lender shall have reasonably determined that (a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR Index Rate, (b) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank market, (c) the making, maintenance or funding of any Borrowing Tranche bearing interest in part at the LIBOR Index Rate has been made unlawful by Lender’s compliance in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law, but other than as a result of any misconduct by Lender), (d) the Base Rate (as determined with reference to the LIBOR Index Rate) will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of the establishment or maintaining of any such Borrowing Tranche, or (e) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Borrowing Tranche are not available to Lender in the London interbank market, then Lender shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3.

3.4.3.    Lender’s Rights.

In the case of the events specified in Section 3.4.2 above, Lender shall promptly notify Borrower thereof. Upon the date as shall be specified in such Notice, the obligation of Lender to make advances under any Borrowing Tranche(s) at the Base Rate shall be suspended until Lender shall have later notified Borrower of Lender’s reasonable determination that the circumstances set forth in Section 3.4.2 no longer exist. If at any time Lender notifies Borrower that it has made a determination under Section 3.4.2, then with respect to any Loan Request previously submitted but not yet funded, and with respect to any Borrowing Tranche on which an Interest Period shall thereafter expire, each such new or renewal Borrowing Tranche(s) shall thereafter bear interest at the Prime Rate, in each case subject to Section 3.3.2 hereof. Lender agrees to exercise its rights under Section 3.4.2 in a manner that is non-discriminating to Borrower and only if Lender is also exercising its rights thereunder with respect to other borrowers similarly situated.

Lender shall deliver to Borrower an invoice (the “Monthly Payment Statement”) detailing the interest and principal (if applicable), Unused Commitment Fees and other fees due and payable. Except in the case of a prepayment under Section 4.3, Lender shall deliver the Monthly Payment Statement detailing charges due for the current calendar month via fax or by other electronic transmittal at least five (5) Business Days prior to the first day of the succeeding calendar month. In the instance of a renewal of an Interest Period pursuant to Section 3.3.3, interest on such renewed Borrowing Tranche shall be due and payable on the next Payment Date, subject to any adjustments in interest rates, as if the Interest Period had not expired and then been renewed. Interest on prepayments under Section 4.3 shall be due on the date such prepayment is due. Interest on the principal amount of the Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated maturity date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

4.3.    Prepayments.

4.3.1.    Voluntary Prepayments.

Borrower shall have the right, at its option, from time to time to prepay the Loan in whole or part at any time, but no prepayment may be less than One Million and NO/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) plus the accrued interest thereon. Whenever Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loan, Borrower shall provide a prepayment Notice to Lender by 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed prepayment setting forth the following information:

(x)    the estimated date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made; and

(z)    the amount to be prepaid.

The principal amount of the Borrowing Tranche(s) for which a prepayment Notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount, shall be due and payable by 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date specified in such prepayment Notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. Lender shall, upon receipt of Borrower’s Notice, prepare and deliver to Borrower the same day via facsimile or other electronic transmittal a statement of interest due with respect to such prepayment, provided that in the event Borrower’s prepayment Notice is not received by Lender prior to 12:00 p.m. Noon Eastern Time, Lender shall not be obligated to prepare and deliver such statement of interest until the Business Day following Lender’s receipt of such Notice.

4.3.2.    Sublimit Violations (Mandatory Prepayment / Collateral Addition).

4.3.2.1.    Upon Borrower’s receipt of Notice that it is not in compliance with the Sublimits, Borrower must either (i) within ninety (90) days of the Notice of Borrower’s non-compliance with the Sublimits, pledge multi-family real property collateral in form, substance, value and in a manner all acceptable to Lender, in its sole discretion, in accordance with Section 2.9 or (ii) within forty-five (45) days of the Notice of Borrower’s non-compliance with the Sublimits, prepay so much of the Loan as is necessary to cause compliance with the Sublimits. Borrower shall provide Notice to Lender and Servicer, within twenty (20) days of Servicer’s (or Lender’s) Notice to Borrower of Borrower’s non-compliance with the Sublimits, of Borrower’s election to proceed under clause (i) or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. If Borrower provides notice of its election to pledge multi-family real property, Borrower may also cure any Sublimit non-compliance by providing evidence satisfactory to Lender, within sixty (60) days of the Notice of Borrower’s non-compliance with the Sublimits, that circumstances with respect to the Collateral Pool have changed such that Borrower is no longer in non-compliance with the Sublimits. Lender shall deliver to Borrower as soon as practicable, but in any event within two (2) Business Days after such Notice of Borrower’s election to prepay the Loan a statement of the principal and interest due with respect to any required prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower is unable to cause compliance with the Sublimits within fifteen (15) days following Notice thereof from Servicer (or Lender) of Borrower’s non-compliance with the Sublimits, then, for so long as Borrower fails to comply with the Sublimits, the Net Spread applicable to all Borrowing Tranches then outstanding (and thereafter renewed) shall automatically increase to one hundred basis points (0.01) over the highest Net Spread shown on Schedule 3.2, (as such Net Spreads are adjusted by Lender pursuant to Sections 2.2(c) and 2.4.6.2) further increased, if at all, in accordance with Schedule 3.2, as a result of the duration of such Borrowing Tranche(s) Interest Period; provided however, such increase shall not constitute a cure of an Event of Default under Section 8.1.3.

4.3.2.2.    In the event of a casualty or condemnation affecting any of the Collateral Pool Properties, any award and/or proceeds payable with respect to such casualty or condemnation and applied to Borrower’s Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Loan Agreement shall be applied without any prepayment fee or other penalty (but any

Accrued Interest shall be paid), and this Agreement, and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents, shall be terminated, at Borrower’s election in accordance with Section 2.13.

4.3.2.3.    Any mandatory prepayment of the Loan in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.3.2 shall be applied, as directed by Borrower, to a particular Borrowing Tranche or Borrowing Tranches under the Revolving Credit Note until the Revolving Credit Note has been repaid in full or, in the absence of any specific direction from Borrower, as selected by Lender in its sole discretion.

4.4.    Accrued Interest.

Unless Borrower for any reason (i) repays a Borrowing Tranche permitted hereunder accruing interest at the Prime Rate or (ii) repays all or a part of a Base Rate Borrowing Tranche upon the expiration of such Base Rate Borrowing Tranche’s Interest Period, any prepayment under Section 4.3 shall be accompanied by a payment of the Accrued Interest (as hereinafter defined). The Accrued Interest for any Base Rate Borrowing Tranche shall be an amount equal to the interest, applicable to the particular Borrowing Tranche being prepaid, which would have otherwise accrued over the remainder of the applicable Interest Period (“Accrued Interest”). In addition, upon Lender’s exercise of any right of acceleration under this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note, or any other Loan Document following an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay to Lender the Accrued Interest on all Base Rate Borrowing Tranches at the time of acceleration, and all other sums and fees payable to Lender hereunder.

4.5.    Additional Payment Obligations.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if Lender shall determine that the Facility DSCR is less than required pursuant to Section 2.5.3.2 or that the LTV Ratio exceeds the ratio permitted in accordance with Section 2.5.3.1, and such noncompliance shall continue (a) past the period set forth in Section 2.5.3, and thereafter (b) remain uncured for fifteen (15) days following Notice thereof from Servicer (or Lender), then the Net Spread applicable to all Borrowing Tranches then outstanding (and thereafter renewed) shall automatically increase to one hundred basis points (0.01) over the highest Net Spread shown on Schedule 3.2 (as such Net Spreads are adjusted by Lender pursuant to Sections 2.2(c) and 2.4.6.2), further increased, if at all, in accordance with Schedule 3.2, as a result of the duration of such Borrowing Tranche(s) Interest Period.

4.6.    Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances.

4.6.1.    Increased Costs Resulting from Taxes, Etc.

If any change in any Law, guideline or interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance with any written

request or directive of any Official Body (other than as a result of any misconduct by Lender) which is applicable to Lender:

4.6.1.1.    subjects Lender to any tax or adverse changes the basis of taxation with respect to this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note, the Loan or payments by Borrower of any principal, interest, fees, or other amounts due from Borrower hereunder or under the Revolving Credit Note (except for taxes on the overall net income of Lender;

4.6.1.2.    imposes upon Lender any condition or denies Lender any right, the result of which is to increase the cost to, reduce the income receivable by, or impose any expense (including breakage costs) upon Lender with respect to this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Note or the making, maintenance or funding of any Borrowing Tranche by an amount which Lender in its discretion deems to be material;

then Lender shall from time to time notify Borrower of the amount determined in good faith (using any averaging and attribution methods employed in good faith) by Lender to be necessary to compensate Lender for such increase in cost. Such Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by Borrower to Lender thirty (30) days after such Notice is given.

4.6.2.    Termination.

Upon the occurrence of any event described in Section 4.6.1, Borrower may elect to terminate this Agreement and the parties’ obligations under the Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13, and Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall terminate upon Borrower’s repayment in full of the Loan and the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay the fees set forth in Section 2.13.4.

4.6.3.    Indemnity.

In addition to the compensation required by Section 4.6.1, Borrower shall jointly and severally indemnify Lender and Servicer against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including Attorneys’ Fees and Costs ( individually and collectively, the “Loss”) which may be imposed or incurred by Lender and/or Servicer directly or indirectly arising out of, or in any way relating to, or a result of any of the following:

4.6.3.1.    attempt by Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Request under Section 2.5, any request to release a Mortgaged Property under Section 2.10, or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.3, or

4.6.3.2.    default by Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any

failure of Borrower to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Accrued Interest, Unused Commitment Fee, Unused Capacity Fee or any other amount due hereunder.

If Lender sustains or incurs any such Loss, it shall from time to time notify Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify Lender for such Loss. Such Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination (which shall be conclusive absent manifest error). Such amount shall be due and payable by Borrower to Lender thirty (30) days after such Notice is given.

Lender may furnish information regarding Borrower or the Collateral Pool Properties to third parties with an existing or prospective interest in the servicing, enforcement, evaluation, performance, purchase or securitization of the Loan, including, but not limited to, trustees, master servicers, special servicers, rating agencies, and organizations maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of multifamily mortgage loans.
