ARTICLE 4

PRINCIPAL, INTEREST; SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR LIBOR LOANS

4.1 Interest Rates. Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loan for the period commencing on the date of such Loan until such Loan is paid in full as follows:

(a) at all times while such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the LIBOR Rate (Reserve Adjusted) applicable to each Interest Period for such Loan plus the Applicable Margin from time to time in effect; and

(b) at all times while such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate from time to time in effect plus the Applicable Margin from time to time in effect;

provided that at any time an Event of Default exists, the interest rate applicable to each Loan shall be increased by two percent (2.00%) (the “Default Rate”).

4.2

Payment of Principal and Interest.

(a) Principal and interest on the Loan shall be payable as provided in the Note. The outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date, unless the Loan is otherwise accelerated, terminated or extended as provided in this Agreement.

(b) The Borrower shall be entitled to extend the Maturity Date for an additional period of two (2) years from the initial Maturity Date upon notice given by the Borrower to the Bank at least thirty (30) days prior to the initial Maturity Date, provided that, as of the initial Maturity Date: (i) no Event of Default, after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods, shall have occurred and be continuing; and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, on or before the initial Maturity Date, an extension fee in an amount equal to twelve and one-half basis points (0.125%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan as of the initial Maturity Date.

(c) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, all payments and prepayments on account of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note shall be applied as follows: (i) first, to fees, expenses, costs and other similar amounts then due and payable to the Bank, (ii) second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the principal balance of the Note, (iii) third, to the payment of principal due in the month in which the payment or prepayment is made, if any, (iv) fourth, to any escrows, impounds or other amounts which may then be due and payable under the Loan Documents, (v) fifth, to any other amounts then due the Bank hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, and (vi) last, to the unpaid principal balance of the Note. After an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, payments shall be applied as required under applicable law and in the absence of any such requirements, payments may be applied to amounts owed hereunder and under the Loan Documents in such order as the Bank shall determine, in its sole discretion.

(d) All payments of principal (including prepayments) and accrued interest shall be paid by wire transfer or check in United States Dollars, to the Bank at such place as the Bank may from time to time direct, and in the absence of such direction, then at the offices of the Bank at 2600 West Big Beaver Road, Troy, Michigan 48084. Payment made by check shall be deemed paid on the date the Bank receives such check; provided, however, that if such check is subsequently returned to the Bank unpaid due to insufficient funds or otherwise, the payment shall not be deemed to have been made and shall continue to bear interest until collected. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment due under the Note must be made by wire transfer or other immediately available funds.

(e) If any payment of interest or principal due hereunder is not made within five days after such payment is due in accordance with the terms hereof, then, in addition to the payment of the amount so due, Borrower shall pay to the Bank a “late charge” of five cents for each whole dollar so overdue to defray part of the cost of collection and handling such late payment. Borrower agrees that the damages to be sustained by the holder hereof for the detriment caused by any late payment are extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain, and that the amount of five cents for each one dollar due is a reasonable estimate of such damages, does not constitute interest, and is not a penalty.

(f) LIBOR Loans and Base Rate Loans may be prepaid either in whole or in part at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon three (3) days prior notice to the

Bank; provided, however, that if a LIBOR Loan is prepaid on a date other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, it shall be accompanied by any amounts due under Section 4.11 hereof.

Types of Loans; Setting and Notice of LIBOR Rates.

Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at the same time, provided that not more than five (5) different tranches of LIBOR Loans shall be outstanding at any one time. Each LIBOR Loan shall be designated by the Borrower by any written, verbal, electronic, telephonic or telecopy request, in form acceptable to the Bank, which the Bank in good faith believes to emanate from a properly authorized representative of the Borrower, whether or not that is in fact the case. Each such request shall be effective upon receipt by the Bank, shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the date, amount and the initial Interest Period therefor. The final Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan must be such that its expiration occurs on or before the Maturity Date. A request to designate a LIBOR Loan must be (i) received by the Bank no later than 11:00 a.m. Troy, Michigan time, three days before the day it is to be designated a LIBOR Loan, and (ii) in an amount equal to Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) or a higher integral multiple of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00). The Borrower does hereby irrevocably confirm, ratify and approve all such designations and does hereby indemnify the Bank against losses and expenses (including court costs, attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees) and shall hold the Bank harmless with respect thereto.

(b) The applicable LIBOR Rate for each Interest Period shall be determined by the Bank, and notice thereof shall be given by the Bank promptly to Borrower. The Bank shall, upon written request of Borrower, deliver to Borrower a statement showing the computations used by the Bank in determining any applicable LIBOR Rate hereunder.

4.4

Conversion and Continuation Procedures.

(a) Each LIBOR Loan shall automatically renew for the Interest Period specified in the initial request received by the Bank for the LIBOR Loan, at the then current LIBOR Rate unless the Borrower, pursuant to a subsequent written notice received by the Bank, shall elect a different Interest Period. Upon receipt by the Bank of such subsequent notice, the Borrower may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any LIBOR Loan having an Interest Period expiring on such day for a different Interest Period. Such notice shall be given before 11:00 a.m., Troy, Michigan time, at least three Business Days prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period, specifying: (i) the aggregate amount of LIBOR Loans to be converted to a different Interest Period; and (ii) the duration of the requested Interest Period.

(b) The Borrower may not elect an Interest Period, and an Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan shall not automatically renew, with respect to any principal amount which is scheduled to be repaid before the last day of the applicable Interest Period, and any such amounts shall be converted to Base Rate Loans until repaid.

4.5

Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Fees and interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual days elapsed in any portion of a month in which interest is due. Interest on Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable law. Any

change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate, or the Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage, shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Bank shall as soon as practicable notify Borrower of each determination of a LIBOR Rate.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Bank pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto in the absence of manifest error.

4.6 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, (a) the Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error) that (i) the making or maintenance of any LIBOR Loan would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having the force of law, (ii) United States dollar deposits in the principal amount, and for periods equal to the Interest Period for funding any LIBOR Loan are not available in the London Interbank Eurodollar market in the ordinary course of business, or (iii) by reason of circumstances affecting the London Interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate to be applicable to the relevant LIBOR Loan, or (b) the Bank shall have determined that the LIBOR Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Bank (as conclusively certified by the Bank) of making or maintaining the affected Loans during such Interest Period, the Bank shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Borrower as soon as practicable thereafter and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (A) the Bank shall not be under any obligation to make any LIBOR Loans or convert any Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, and (B) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, such Loan, unless then repaid in full, shall automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan, without further demand, presentment, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

4.7 Payments. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrower hereunder and under the Note, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M., Troy, Michigan time, on the due date thereof. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

4.8 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the Bank shall have reasonably determined that any Regulatory Change shall make it unlawful for the Bank to make or maintain LIBOR Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, the Bank shall give notice of such determination to Borrower and (A) the commitment of the Bank hereunder to make LIBOR Loans, continue LIBOR Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (B) the LIBOR Loans then outstanding, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such LIBOR Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrower shall pay to the Bank such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 4.11.

4.9

Legal Requirements.

(a)

If any Regulatory Change made subsequent to the date hereof shall:

(i) subject the Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, the Note or any LIBOR Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of

payments to the Bank in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by subsection 4.10 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of the Bank);

(ii) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of the Bank which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate; or

(iii) impose on the Bank any other condition regarding the LIBOR Loans or the Bank’s funding thereof;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank, by an amount which the Bank in good faith deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining LIBOR Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay the Bank, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Bank for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If the Bank shall have determined that any Regulatory Change regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in any such case made subsequent to the date hereof, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Bank’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Bank or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration the Bank’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then from time to time, after submission by the Bank to Borrower (with a copy to the Bank) of a written request therefor, Borrower shall pay to the Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Bank for such reduction.

(c) If the Bank becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall promptly notify Borrower of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by the Bank to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Note and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection, Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to the Bank pursuant to this subsection to the extent such additional amounts result from the Bank’s negligence.

4.10 Taxes. All payments made by Borrower under this Agreement and the Note shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on the Bank as a result of a present or former connection between the Bank and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Bank having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or the Note). If any such non-excluded taxes,

levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Bank hereunder or under the Note, the amounts so payable to the Bank shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Bank (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement, provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to the Bank that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof if the Bank fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of this subsection. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter Borrower shall send to the Bank a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment thereof. If Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Bank the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Bank as a result of any such failures. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Note and all other amounts payable hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection, Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to the Bank pursuant to this subsection to the extent such additional amounts result from the Bank’s negligence.

4.11 LIBOR Loan Indemnification. Borrower agrees to indemnify the Bank and to hold the Bank harmless from any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans after Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by Borrower in making any prepayment after Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (c) the making of a prepayment of LIBOR Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnified amount shall include any and all costs, expenses, penalties and charges incurred by the Bank as a result thereof, plus an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the time of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of the failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period which would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included thereon, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably defined by the Bank) which would have accrued to the Bank on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the certificate of deposit market, the eurodollar deposit market, or other appropriate money market selected by the Bank. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Note and all other amounts due hereunder. Amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be paid to the Bank, upon the request of the Bank and a determination of the Bank as to the amounts payable pursuant to this subsection shall be conclusive absent manifest error, based upon the assumption that the Bank funded its loan commitment for LIBOR Loans in the London Interbank Eurodollar market and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which the Bank deems appropriate and practical, provided, however, that the Bank is not obligated to accept a deposit in the London Interbank Eurodollar market in order to charge interest on a LIBOR Loan at the LIBOR Rate.

12.1 Remedies Conferred upon the Bank. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Bank, in addition to all remedies conferred upon the Bank by law and by the terms of the Note, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents, may pursue any one or more of the following remedies concurrently or successively, it being the intent hereof that none of such remedies shall be to the exclusion of any others:

(a) Declare the Note to be due and payable forthwith, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which Borrower hereby expressly waives, and

(b) Exercise or pursue any other remedy or cause of action permitted at law or in equity or under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, but not limited to, foreclosure of the Mortgages and enforcement of all Loan Documents.

12.2 Setoff Rights. In addition to any rights of setoff that the Bank may have under applicable law, the Bank, without notice of any kind to Borrower, may appropriate and apply to the payment of the Note or of any sums due under this Agreement any and all balances, deposits, credits, accounts, certificates of deposit, instruments or money of Borrower then or thereafter in the possession of the Bank or any Participant of the Bank.

12.3 Right of Bank to Make Advances to Cure Event of Defaults; Obligatory Advances. If Borrower shall fail to perform any of its covenants or agreements herein or in any of the other Loan Documents contained, the Bank may (but shall not be required to) perform any of such covenants and agreements, and any amounts expended by the Bank in so doing, and any amounts expended by the Bank pursuant to Section 12.1 hereof and any amounts advanced by the Bank pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed advanced by the Bank under an obligation to do so regardless of the identity of the person or persons to whom said funds are disbursed. Amounts advanced by the Bank to protect its security for the Loan are obligatory advances hereunder and shall constitute additional indebtedness payable on demand and evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.

12.4 Attorneys’ Fees. Borrower will pay the Bank’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in connection with the negotiation, preparation, administration and enforcment of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which shall also include reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys who may be employees of the Bank or any affiliate of the Bank; without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if at any time or times hereafter the Bank employs counsel for advice or other representation with respect to any matter concerning Borrower, this Agreement, the Property or the Loan Documents or if the Bank employ one or more counsel to protect, collect, lease, sell, take possession of, or liquidate any of the Property, or to attempt to enforce or protect any security interest or lien or other right in any of the Property or under any of the Loan Documents, or to enforce any rights of the Bank or obligations of

Borrower or any other person, firm or corporation which may be obligated to the Bank by virtue of this Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement, instrument or document, heretofore or hereafter delivered to the Bank in furtherance hereof, then in any such event, all of the attorneys’ fees arising from such services, and any expenses, costs and charges relating thereto, shall constitute an additional indebtedness owing by Borrower to the Bank payable on demand and evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.

12.5 No Waiver. No failure by the Bank to exercise, or delay by the Bank in exercising, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of each other or of any right or remedy provided at law or in equity. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case, in itself, shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Bank to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

12.6 Default Rate. From and after the date of any Event of Default until the date on which such Event of Default is cured or waived, interest on funds outstanding hereunder shall accrue at the Default Rate and be payable on demand. The failure of the Bank to charge interest at the Default Rate shall not be evidence of the absence of an Event of Default or waiver of an Event of Default by the Bank.

13.2 The Bank’s Determination of Facts. The Bank at all times shall be free to establish independently to its satisfaction and in its sole and absolute discretion the existence or nonexistence of any fact or facts, the existence or nonexistence of which is a condition of this Agreement.

13.3 Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any other documents or instruments executed pursuant thereto or contemplated thereby, shall represent the entire, integrated agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the Loan, and shall supersede all prior negotiations, representations or agreements pertaining thereto, either oral or written. This Agreement and any provision hereof shall not be modified, amended, waived or discharged in any manner other than by a written amendment executed by all parties to this Agreement.

To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall satisfy such undertaking to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, cost or expense covered by this indemnity shall be paid to such Indemnified Party on demand, and failing prompt payment, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred by such Indemnified Party until paid by Borrower, shall be added to the obligations of Borrower evidenced by the Note and secured by the collateral securing the Loan. This indemnity is not intended to excuse the Bank from performing hereunder. The provisions of this section shall survive the closing of the Loan, the satisfaction and payment of the Note and any cancellation of this Agreement. Borrower shall also pay, and hold the Bank harmless from, any and all claims of any brokers, finders or agents claiming a right to any fees in connection with arranging the Loan. The Bank hereby represents that it has not employed a broker or other finder in connection with the Loan.
