4.

DEFAULT INTEREST

Borrower does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall be entitled to receive and Borrower shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum at a rate (the “Default Rate”) equal to (i) the greater of (a) the Applicable Interest Rate plus three percent (3%) and (b) the Prime Rate (as hereinafter defined) plus four percent (4%) or (ii) the maximum interest rate that Borrower may by law pay, whichever is lower.

If The Wall Street Journal ceases to publish the “Prime Rate”, the Lender shall select an equivalent publication that publishes such “Prime Rate”, and if such prime rates are no longer generally published or are limited, regulated or administered by a governmental or quasi-governmental body, then Lender shall select a comparable interest rate index.

From and after the Prepayment Lockout Date, provided no Event of Default exists, the principal balance of this Note may be prepaid, in whole but not in part, upon: (i) not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior written notice (the “Prepayment Notice”) to Lender specifying the date on which prepayment is to be made (the “Prepayment Date”); (ii) payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal balance of this Note to and (unless such payment is received before noon on a Monthly Payment Date) including the Prepayment Date, together with a payment of all interest which would have accrued on the principal balance of this Note to and including the last day of the Accrual Period in which the Prepayment Date occurs, if such prepayment occurs on a date which is not the eleventh (11th) day of a calendar month (the “Shortfall Interest Payment”); (iii) payment of all other sums then due under this Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and (iv) if the Prepayment Date occurs prior to the Par Date, payment of a prepayment consideration (the “Prepayment Consideration”) in an amount equal to the present value of a series of payments each equal to the Payment Differential (hereinafter defined) and payable on each Monthly Payment Date over the remaining original term of this Note through and including the Par Date discounted at the Reinvestment Yield (hereinafter defined) for the number of months remaining from the Prepayment Date to each such Monthly Payment Date.

issue (primary issue) with a term equal to the remaining average life of the Debt (assuming that this Note matures on the Par Date); or (ii) if no such U.S. Treasury issue is available, then the interpolated yield on the two U.S. Treasury issues (primary issues) with terms (one prior to and one following) that are closest to the remaining average life of the Debt (assuming that this Note matures on the Par Date), with each such yield being based on the bid price for such issue as published in The Wall Street Journal on the date that is 14 days prior to the Prepayment Date set forth in the Prepayment Notice (or, if such bid price is not published on that date, the next preceding date on which such bid price is so published) and converted to a monthly compounded nominal yield. The term “Payment Differential” as used herein shall be equal to (x) the Applicable Interest Rate minus the Reinvestment Yield, divided by (y) 12 and multiplied by (z) the principal sum outstanding on such Prepayment Date, provided that the Payment Differential shall in no event be less than zero. In no event, however, shall Lender be required to reinvest any prepayment proceeds in U.S. Treasury obligations or otherwise. Lender shall notify Borrower of the amount, and the basis of determination, of the required Prepayment Consideration. If a Prepayment Notice is given by Borrower to Lender pursuant to this Article 5, the principal balance of this Note and the other sums required under this Article shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date. Lender shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless it is accompanied by all sums due in connection therewith.

(F)

evidence in writing from the applicable Rating Agencies (as defined in the Security Instrument) to the effect that such release will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any rating in effect immediately prior to such defeasance for any Securities (as defined in the Security Instrument); and

such other certificates, documents or instruments as Lender may reasonably request.

The Defeasance Deposit shall be used to purchase Defeasance Collateral which provide payments which are (A) payable on or prior to, but as close as possible to, all successive Monthly Payment Dates after the Release Date and the Maturity Date (as accelerated to the Par Date in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph) and (B) in amounts necessary to meet the scheduled payments of principal and interest due under this Note on such dates (the “Scheduled Defeasance Payments”).

(iv)         The term “Defeasance Collateral” shall mean non-callable and non-redeemable obligations issued, or fully guaranteed as to payment, by the United States of America (including, without limitation, obligations issued or held in book-entry form of the Department of the Treasury and principal-only and interest-only strips that are issued by the United States Treasury, or non-callable and non-redeemable obligations, the principal of and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America, or the non-callable and non-redeemable obligations of any agency of the United States of America all of whose obligations are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America, which mature at least four (4) business days before the related Monthly Payment or the Maturity Date, as applicable), or such other securities as are permitted as of the Release Date by the Code with respect to REMIC Trust collateral substitutions; and

(v)           The term “Defeasance Deposit” shall mean an amount equal to the sum of (1) the amount which will be sufficient to purchase Defeasance Collateral necessary to meet the Scheduled Defeasance Payments; and (2) any revenue, documentary stamp or intangible taxes or any other tax or charge due in connection with the transfer of this Note or otherwise required to accomplish the agreements of this Section 5(b), all fees, costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred by Lender in the purchase of such Defeasance Collateral and the assumption payments referred to above.

(vi)         Following the delivery of the Defeasance Deposit to Lender, Borrower shall not have any right to prepay this Note.

(c)           If a defeasance is to occur under this Article 5 and Borrower has specified in the notice delivered pursuant to Section 5(b)(i) that it intends to effectuate the defeasance in a manner which will permit the assignment of this Note and the Security Instrument to a new mortgage lender in order to save mortgage recording tax, Lender shall assign this Note and the Security Instrument, each without recourse, covenant or warranty of any nature, express or implied, to such new lender designated by Borrower provided that Borrower (i) has duly executed and caused to be delivered to such new lender a substitute note in the principal amount being defeased that shall be secured by the Defeasance Deposit pursuant to the Pledge Agreement between Borrower and such new lender (such substitute note to have the lender providing the monies necessary to acquire the Defeasance Deposit and the same term, interest rate, principal balance being defeased and all other material terms and conditions of this Note and to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies) which substitute note, together with the Pledge Agreement and the rights of such new lender in and to the Defeasance Deposit, shall be assigned without recourse, covenant or warranty of any nature, express or implied, by such new lender to Lender simultaneously with the assignment of this Note and the Security Instrument by Lender and to the new lender and at Lender’s request, shall be expressly assumed by the Successor Borrower and (ii) has complied with all other provisions of this Article 5 to the extent not inconsistent with this Section 5(d). In addition, any such assignment shall be conditioned on the following: (A) payment by Borrower of (1) Lender’s then customary administrative fee, not to exceed $1,000 for processing assignments of mortgage; (2) the expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith; (3) Lender’s reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses for the preparation, delivery and performance of such an assignment and (4) the reasonable fees and expenses of the applicable Rating Agencies incurred in connection with this Section 5(c); (B) such new lender shall materially modify this Note such that it shall be treated as a new loan for federal, state or local law, rule, regulation, order or by any other governmental authority; (C) such assignment and the activities described above do not constitute a prohibited transaction for or a contribution after the startup day to any REMIC Trust which shall own the Loan and will not disqualify such REMIC Trust as a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” within the meaning of section 860D of the Code as a result of such assignment and the defeasance and the debt evidenced by the substitute note constitutes a “Qualified Mortgage” for such REMIC Trust within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, and an opinion of counsel to Borrower to that effect is delivered to Lender in a form that would be reasonably satisfactory to a prudent lender; (D) Lender shall have received evidence in writing from the applicable Rating Agencies to the effect that such assignment will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any rating in effect immediately prior to such assignment for any Securities; and (E) Borrower shall provide such other opinions, items, information and documents which a prudent

 

- 9 -

lender would reasonably require to effectuate such assignment. Borrower shall be responsible for all taxes, recording fees and other charges payable in connection with any such assignment. Borrower agrees that the assignment of this Note and the Security Instrument with respect to the Property to a new lender and the assignment of the substitute note, the Defeasance Deposit and the Government Securities and the Pledge Agreement by the new lender to Lender shall be accomplished by an escrow closing conducted through an escrow agent satisfactory to Lender and pursuant to an escrow agreement satisfactory to Lender in form and substance.

(d)           If the event the Loan is not defeased, upon a voluntary prepayment which is permitted under Section 5(a) hereof (or payment on the Maturity Date) and the written request of Borrower, Lender shall assign this Note and the Security Instrument, each without recourse, covenant or warranty of any nature, express or implied, to a new lender designated by Borrower upon Borrower’s payment in full of the Debt and all other sums payable under the Loan Documents.

(e)           Simultaneously with each Default Repayment (defined herein) occurring prior to the Par Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the greater of: (A) three (3%) percent of the principal amount of this Note being prepaid (the “Default Repayment Premium”) (provided that this clause (A) shall not apply if the Default Repayment occurs after the Prepayment Lockout Date, and, in such case, the Default Repayment Premium shall equal the amount in clause (B)); and (B) the present value as of the date of the Default Repayment (the “Default Repayment Date”) of a series of payments each equal to the Default Payment Differential (hereinafter defined) and payable on each Monthly Payment Date over the remaining original term of this Note through and including the Par Date discounted at the Default Reinvestment Yield (hereinafter defined) for the number of months remaining from the Default Repayment Date to each such Monthly Payment Date. The term “Default Reinvestment Yield” as used herein shall be equal to the lesser of (a) the (i) yield on the U.S. Treasury issue (primary issue) with the same maturity date as the Par Date; or (ii) if no such U.S. Treasury issue is available, then the interpolated yield on the two U.S. Treasury issues (primary issues) with maturity dates (one prior to and one following) that are closest to the Par Date; or (b) the (i) yield on the U.S. Treasury issue (primary issue) with a term equal to the remaining average life of the Debt (assuming that this Note matures on the Par Date), or (ii) if no such U.S. Treasury issue is available, then the interpolated yield on the two U.S. Treasury issues (primary issues) with terms (one prior to and one following) that are closest to the remaining average life of the Debt (assuming that this Note matures on the Par Date), with each such yield being based on the bid price for such issue as published in The Wall Street Journal on the date that is 14 days prior to the Default Repayment Date (or, if such bid price is not published on that date, the next preceding date on which such bid price is so published) and converted to a monthly compounded nominal yield. The term “Default Payment Differential” as used herein shall be equal to (x) the Applicable Interest Rate minus the Default Reinvestment Yield, divided by (y) 12 and multiplied by (z) the principal sum being repaid on such Default Repayment Date after application of the Monthly Payment (if any) due on the date of the Default Repayment, provided that the Payment Differential shall in no event be less than zero. In no event, however, shall Lender be required to reinvest any repayment proceeds in U.S. Treasury obligations or otherwise.

For purposes of this Note, the term “Default Repayment” shall mean a repayment of all or any portion of the principal amount of this Note made during the continuance of any Event of Default or after an acceleration of the Maturity Date under any circumstances, including, without limitation, a repayment occurring in connection with reinstatement of the Security Instrument provided by statute under foreclosure proceedings or exercise of a power of sale, any statutory right of redemption exercised by Borrower or any other party having a statutory right to redeem or prevent foreclosure, any sale in foreclosure or under exercise of a power of sale or otherwise.

6.

SECURITY

This Note is secured by the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents. The Security Instrument is intended to be duly recorded in the public records of the county where the Property is located. All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Security Instrument and the other

 

- 10 -

Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein.

7.

SAVINGS CLAUSE

This Note is subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the Applicable Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and all previous payments in excess of the maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Debt, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Note until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding.

8.

LATE CHARGE

If any sum payable under this Note is not paid on the date on which it is due, regardless of whether such failure shall constitute an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of the unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Lender in handling and processing the delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of the delinquent payment and the amount shall be secured by the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.

9.

NO ORAL CHANGE

This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Borrower or Lender, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.

10.

JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY

If Borrower consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each person or party shall be joint and several.

11.

WAIVERS

All payments required hereunder shall be made irrespective of, and without any deduction for, any setoff, defense or counterclaim. Borrower and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest and non-payment and all other notices of any kind, other than notices specifically required by the terms of this Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents. No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof, and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents made by agreement between Lender or any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Borrower, and any other person or entity who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents. No notice to or demand on Borrower shall be deemed to be a waiver of the obligation of Borrower or of the right of Lender to take further action without further notice or demand as provided for in this Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents. In addition, acceptance by Lender of any payment in an amount less than the

 

- 11 -

amount then due shall be deemed an acceptance on account only, and the failure to pay the entire amount then due shall be and continue to be an Event of Default. If Borrower is a partnership, the agreements herein contained shall remain in force and applicable, notwithstanding any changes in the individuals comprising the partnership, and the term “Borrower,” as used herein, shall include any alternate or successor partnership, but any predecessor partnership and their partners shall not thereby be released from any liability. If Borrower is a corporation or limited liability company, the agreements contained herein shall remain in full force and applicable notwithstanding any changes in the shareholders or members comprising, or the officers and directors or managers relating to, the corporation or limited liability company, and the term “Borrower” as used herein, shall include any alternative or successor corporation or limited liability company, but any predecessor corporation or limited liability company shall not be relieved of liability hereunder. (Nothing in the foregoing sentence shall be construed as a consent to, or a waiver of, any prohibition or restriction on transfers of interests in a partnership, corporation or limited liability company which may be set forth in the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document.)

12.

TRANSFER

Upon the transfer of this Note, Borrower hereby waiving notice of any such transfer, Lender may deliver all the collateral mortgaged, granted, pledged or assigned pursuant to the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, or any part thereof, to the transferee who shall thereupon become vested with all the rights herein or under applicable law given to Lender with respect thereto, and Lender shall thereafter forever be relieved and fully discharged from any liability or responsibility in the matter; but Lender shall retain all rights hereby given to it with respect to any liabilities and the collateral not so transferred.

13.

WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY

BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, RELATING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE LOAN, THE APPLICATION FOR THE LOAN, THIS NOTE, THE SECURITY INSTRUMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF LENDER, ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, DIRECTORS OR AGENTS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.

14.

EXCULPATION

(a)           Except as otherwise provided herein, in the Security Instrument or in the other Loan Documents, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Note or the Security Instrument by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower or its general partners, except that Lender may sell the Property under any power of sale or right of non-judicial foreclosure or bring a foreclosure action, confirmation action, action for specific performance or other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon this Note, the Security Instrument, the other Loan Documents, and the interest in the Property, the Rents (as defined in the Security Instrument) and any other collateral given to Lender created by this Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower (but in no event against its general partners) only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Property, in the Rents and in any other collateral given to Lender. Lender, by accepting this Note and the Security Instrument, agrees that it shall not, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.10 of the Security Instrument, sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower (or against the general partners of Borrower, without regard to the provisions of Section 10.10 of the Security Instrument) in any such action or proceeding, under or by reason of or under or in connection with this Note, the other Loan Documents or the Security Instrument. The provisions of this Article shall not, however, (i) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by this Note, the other Loan Documents or the Security Instrument; (ii) Intentionally Deleted; (iii) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower (but not

 

- 12 -

its general partners) as a party defendant in any action or suit for judicial foreclosure and sale under the Security Instrument; (iv) affect the validity or enforceability of any indemnity, guaranty, master lease or similar instrument made in connection with this Note, the Security Instrument, or the other Loan Documents; (v) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (vi) impair the enforcement of the Assignment of Leases and Rents executed in connection herewith; (vii) impair the right of Lender to obtain a deficiency judgment or judgment on the Note against Borrower (but not its general partners) if necessary to obtain any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to which Lender would otherwise be entitled under the Security Instrument; provided however, Lender shall only enforce such judgment against the insurance proceeds and/or condemnation awards; or (viii) impair the right of Lender to enforce the provisions of Sections 10.10, 11.2 and 11.3 of the Security Instrument.

(b)           Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 14 to the contrary, Borrower (but not the general partners of Borrower) shall be personally liable to Lender for the Losses (as defined in the Security Instrument) it incurs due (i) fraud or intentional, material misrepresentation by Borrower, SCOLP, or any of their agents, principals, officers or employees, (ii) Borrower’s misapplication or misappropriation of insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or tenant security deposits, if and to the extent Borrower or its agents have the right and ability to control the disbursement of such proceeds, awards or deposits; (ii) Rents received by Borrower after the occurrence of an Event of Default, provided that such Rents (y) are not applied towards either the Monthly Payment or the ordinary and necessary operating expenses of the Property and Borrower has provided Lender with evidence of same in a form acceptable to Lender, or (z) are paid to Lender, (iii) so long as Borrower has possession and control of the Property, Borrower’s failure to pay (except to the extent that sums sufficient to pay such amounts have been deposited in escrow with Lender pursuant to the terms of the Security Instrument) Taxes or other liens with priority over Lender’s lien on the Property or other liens established under the Loan Documents, to the extent funds are available from the operation of the Property for such purpose, or from escrow deposits made to Lender for such purpose (regardless of whether Lender uses such funds to pay such Taxes or other liens), (iv) damage to the Property arising from (y) the intentional misconduct or gross negligence of Borrower, SCOLP, or any of their principals, officers, agents or employees, or (z) any removal of the Property in violation of the Loan Documents, (v) Borrower’s or any other Indemnitor’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Environmental Indemnity (as defined in the Security Instrument) or (vi) the nonpayment of any documentary stamp tax or intangible tax due on the Assigned Note (as defined in the Security Instrument), the Assigned Mortgage (as defined in the Security Instrument), this Note or the Security Instrument.

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, the agreement of Lender not to pursue recourse liability as set forth in Subsection (a) above SHALL BECOME NULL AND VOID and shall be of no further force and effect (i) in the event of Borrower’s default under Sections 4.2 or 8.2 of the Security Instrument, or (ii) if the Property or any part thereof shall become an asset in (1) a voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or (2) an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding (A) which is commenced by any party controlling, controlled by or under common control with Borrower (which shall include, but not be limited to, any creditor or claimant acting in concert with Borrower or any of the foregoing parties) (the “Borrowing Group”) or (B) in which any member of the Borrowing Group objects to a motion by Lender for relief from any stay or injunction from the foreclosure of the Security Instrument or any other remedial action permitted hereunder or under the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents.

(d)           Nothing herein shall be deemed to be a waiver of any right which Lender may have under Sections 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the Debt or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Debt owing to Lender in accordance with this Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.
